No shame.
No shame...
Zhu Xian pursed his lips and looked back at the book of death.
The words and sentences above are very plain, without any rhetoric or emotion, just like walking leisurely.
"The Duke of Dingguo has never plotted rebellion, formed a clique for personal gain, has never colluded with foreign invaders, and has never secretly stolen food for disaster relief to tell the world. The Duke of Dingguo has no shame."
The crimes of Dingguo Gongfu have never been announced to the world, and no one has the time to ask the court what Dingguo Gongfu has committed.
These days, it's good to be alive. Who would be idle and looking for trouble?
Now this letter to the world is said to be telling the world that Duke Dingguo is innocent, but it is better to tell the world what "crimes" Duke Dingguo committed back then.
Thinking about all the events of that year and the grave crime he was finally convicted of, Zhu Xian still felt lingering fear in his heart.
There was no room for negotiation. In the shortest possible time and at the fastest speed, the Grand Duke's Mansion disappeared into thin air.
Even Zhu Xian was not completely clear about what the real crime was and what the crimes were. Such a big case was not handled by the Jingzhao Mansion but directly by the Yushitai Criminal Department and Tianrong Guard.
But Zhu Xian knew that no matter what happened, Duke Dingguo's mansion would never commit the serious crime of having his family exterminated and his family confiscated. He knew that Duke Dingguo's mansion would never commit the crimes he knew about.
Not only did he know it, but everyone who was an official in the government knew it.
But so what if you know it clearly, what can you do?
Using a mantis' arm as a chariot will only lead to death.
Now looking at the "no guilt" on the paper, Zhu Xian has mixed feelings in his heart.
"The Duke of Dingguo has no shame," Zhu Xian muttered softly. Suddenly, he slapped the table, "Okay, I dare!"
My hand hurt a lot when I slapped it on the desk, and it was a little numb because of the cold weather.
But soon, the feeling of joy in my heart washed away the pain in my hands.
Just like the butcher's knife that stopped Lu Ronghui in Daping Square yesterday, he suddenly felt very comfortable and refreshed, as if a long-held breath broke through the big stone blocking his chest and was completely released.
But before I was happy enough, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside: "My lord! My lord!"
Zhu Xian looked up: "What's the matter?!"
"Sir!" The Yamen Guard ran in out of breath and shouted loudly, "Sir, something happened! Master Lu, Lu Qianhai, he has appeared!"
There were many people surrounding the street entrance from a distance. The patrol guards and government guards arrived and began to drive them away. However, the area was too wide and seemed to be crowded with people, so they could not be driven away no matter what.
Zhu Xian and Wei Zheng strode over with the others.
Lu Qianhai was kneeling on the ground, his clothes were thin and ragged, and his body was bound by many iron chains. Several thick iron chains were locked to the boulders on the ground. Six locksmiths were studying beside him.
"Lord Lu!" Zhu Xian walked over and called, looking back at the Yamen Guards on the side, "Why don't you get a coat for Lord Lu to wear?"
The Yamen Guard looked helpless and pointed at him.
Zhu Xian frowned, walked over and called, "Master Lu?"
Lu Qianhai didn't react at all. He knelt there and muttered something in his mouth.
A team is handing over a robe.
Zhu Xian took it and put it on Lu Qianhai's back. Lu Qianhai suddenly started up like a madman, his eyes were red: "Don't touch me! I'll kill you!"
As he spoke, he opened his mouth and was about to bite Zhu Xian.
Fortunately, the team reacted quickly and pulled Zhu Xian away in time.
"That's it," the Yamen Guard said, "Master Lu won't let us touch him, he, he's crazy..."
"Wait a minute," Wei Zheng said, "what is this?"
He pointed to the corner of the paper exposed in Lu Qianhai's arms.
"Get it." Zhu Xian said.
The captain and the yamen guard looked at each other.
The captain stepped forward, put a scabbard on Lu Qianhai's neck, and forced his head to the other side, while the Yamen Guard took out the paper from his arms.
As soon as the scabbard left Lu Qianhai's neck, he turned around very quickly and bit down on the scabbard.
It was a real bite, with all his strength, half of his teeth were broken and fell off, and blood seeped out from the gums, which was quite scary.
Zhu Xian stopped talking, frowned, shook his head, and opened the page.
"A confession of guilt." Wei Cong read out in a low voice beforehand.
After looking at it line by line, both of their faces turned pale.
Compared with the short numbers in the book of announcement, the text on this piece of paper is detailed in size, the numeral grammar is all precise and concise, and the words are carefully used.
"Put it away," Wei Zheng said very softly, "Hurry up."
Zhu Xian reacted and put it away as quickly as possible, his heart beating very fast.
"How are you doing?" Manager Wei looked at the locksmiths over there, "Are you ready?"
"It's quick, sir, it'll be ready," the locksmith responded.
Wei Zhengwang returned to Zhu Xian and then turned to Lu Qianhai.
He was crying over there because of toothache, his hair was disheveled and he was in a miserable state.
Wei Zhan sighed and shook his head: "I'm afraid our Lord Tutor will be even worse now."
The news that Lu Qianhai was discovered spread quickly, and everyone in the imperial court was alarmed. Lu Qianhai's family and people from the Taifu Mansion rushed to the Jingzhao Mansion Office immediately. Seeing Lu Qianhai like this, they were all frightened.
.
At the same time, Dongping Academy also exploded because of Lu Qianhai's incident.
Looking at the carriages and sedan chairs coming and going, the smile on Lin Qingfeng's lips grew thicker and she said, "Look, I'm really anxious."
The little maid followed her and looked over with a smile.
After passing Dongping Academy and walking a long way ahead, we finally arrived at Guofu.
The little maid stepped forward and patted the door. It took a while before anyone came.
The servant looked at them: "You are..."
"We came to see Mr. Shen," the little maid said, "Shitou knows us."
"Stone?" The servant nodded, "Wait a minute, I'll go ask."
"Then you have to go faster." The little maid said.
After the servant closed the door and left, the little maid pouted and came back and said to Lin Qingfeng: "I've been waiting here for a long time to get a door. If he keeps doing this again and again, I don't know how long it will take. I think the Guo family is so rich.
, can’t even afford to hire a servant to guard the door?”
"Say less." Lin Qingfeng said.
But this time I didn't have to wait long, and soon I heard the movement inside.
Shitou ran over in big strides, opened the door and saw that it was really them, and he was immediately overjoyed: "You're here, Miss Lin."
"Young official Shitou." Lin Qingfeng smiled and gave him a blessing.
"Come on, come on in," Shitou shouted.
The servant followed behind. When he came over, he pulled Shitou's sleeve and whispered: "This is not good, the young master hasn't said anything yet."
"It's okay, you know nothing." Shitou pushed him away and said to Lin Qingfeng with a smile, "Come on, come in quickly."
The little maid happily went over to help Lin Qingfeng and said, "Let's go, miss."
At the same time, he did not forget to whisper in Lin Qingfeng's ear: "Young lady has really predicted this."
Lin Qingfeng's lips raised: "This is not difficult."
After all, the first person the servant meets when reporting is the attendant, and then the young master.
And this follower was eager to send his young master to study as soon as possible.
