Chapter 262 Stop the bloodshed
"Mr. Ukaku!"
"Be bold!"
"presumptuous!"
Zuo Ci's behavior shocked the hearts of everyone present. Zhong Yao shouted helplessly and hurriedly stopped him. At this time, the heavy-armored guards and armed eunuchs waiting outside the palace also came out one after another.
In addition to swords, guns, swords and halberds, there were at least hundreds of bows and crossbows aimed at Zuo Ci!
However!
Even so, Zuo Ci didn't show any fear at all. Instead, he looked at everyone with a smile, "What are you doing? I just opened the door by myself. Why are you so shocked? Besides, you want to keep me with what you have in your hands?"
"
As Zuo Ci said that, he reached out and grabbed a ring-headed knife with two fingers. He didn't use any force at all and just twisted it with his hands. The straight blade of the knife turned into a spiral.
This scene made everyone stunned.
It's just that while his behavior was astonishing, he was also regarded as a provocation by the sword-wielding warriors in the distance. A military attache drew his bow and released a carved-feathered wolf-tooth arrow without even thinking!
Whoosh!
Po Feng's voice was accurate and smooth, but Zuo Ci raised the corner of his mouth, a smile flashed in his eyes, and with a flick of his hand, the wolf-fang arrow turned around in the air and flew back with a flick. The military attache was so shocked that he almost fell off the platform.
!
"enough!"
At this moment, Liu Jin hurriedly ran out of the Changxin Palace. When he came to the door, he waved his fly whisk and retreated the warriors on the left and right. "You all stand down! This is His Majesty's guest. You must not be presumptuous."
"promise!"
The warriors retreated, and Liu Jincai came to Zuo Ci with a faint smile. Looking at the tall old man, he was shocked. In fact, Liu Xie and he had seen clearly everything that happened outside. The reason why they did not stop it from the beginning.
This was what Liu Xie meant. He wanted to see how capable Zuo Ci was.
However, if you don't know it, today he has opened his eyes. He was worried about what would happen if it was delayed, so Liu Jin hurriedly came out to smooth things over.
"Are you Mr. Wujiao, Zuo Ci?" Liu Xie smiled and asked tentatively.
Zuo Ci nodded, but she put away her arrogance towards him and became polite, "If I read correctly, you are His Majesty the Emperor's personal attendant, Grand Chamberlain, right?"
"She is just a slave. Don't be polite, old sir. In front of you, slave is just an official word. It is just a servant serving His Majesty. Please come in, His Majesty is waiting for you."
"good."
Zuo Ci nodded, said nothing, and followed him inside. At this time, Zhong Yao beside him didn't know what to do.
"Official official. Do you want me to go in?"
"Your Majesty said, please wait outside, Mr. Zhong."
Zhong Yao nodded, feeling extremely uneasy, but he had no choice but to watch the two of them walk into the hall...
Inside the Changxin Palace!
Liu Xie sat on the golden dragon seat, his eyes slightly closed, and he was very solemn. Here Liu Jin led Zuo Ci in and came to the bottom of Danqi.
"Mr. Wujiao, should you pay homage to His Majesty?"
Zuo Ci looked at Liu Xie, hesitated for a moment, then knelt down on one knee and slapped his head, "Your Majesty, Zuo Ci from outside the country has come to see you!"
"Mr. Wujiao, please take a seat." Liu Xie said, nodding and asking Liu Jin to bring him a bed.
After Zuo Ci sat down, Liu Jin served tea, fruit, snacks, and some special snacks from the Western Regions as he had been told before. Everything was arranged. He originally wanted to stand next to the emperor, just in case the old man in front of him did something.
He had to resist, but Liu Xie just let him out.
"You don't need to wait here. Mr. Wujiao is an expert in this world, a fairy who can transform into the outside world. He will never harm me. Please go out. I want to talk to Mr. Wujiao alone."
"this……"
Liu Jin nodded, didn't say anything, and carefully backed out of the door, but he didn't leave, but stood there straight!
This scene made Liu Xie feel grateful. After all, this boy's loyalty was not fake.
When everything was settled, Liu Xie was not polite and spoke directly, "Mr. Wujiao, I just heard from Mr. Zhong Yao that you provided him with a list, saying it was about the flower theft case. I wonder if it is true?"
"certainly."
"Then where did the old gentleman get the list?" Liu Xie asked with a smile.
Zuo Ci also laughed when he heard this, but his smile was obviously a little more sarcastic, "Your Majesty's court handles cases, and what you want is truth and falsehood. The list I gave you is all the criminals. As for where it comes from, and
Why should we pursue it? In other words, there are many things that should not be said. If we were to pursue them, I am afraid His Majesty would not feel comfortable."
As soon as he said this, Liu Xie was stunned by him, but Zuo Ci smiled and continued without hesitation, "Actually, there are some things that your Majesty knows best in your heart. Who owns the world? Your Majesty again
Who is His Majesty? Who knows whether it is true or false? And who does not know?"
"I……"
When Zuo Ci said this, Liu Xie actually had murderous intentions, because he could tell that this land immortal might have figured out his identity as a time traveler, otherwise how could he speak like this?
Although he was sure that even if he told all these things, no one would believe him, or even if someone believed him, he would have a way to reverse it all, but the feeling of having his secret revealed was still uncomfortable.
He did not speak, but Zuo Ci continued to talk. However, he seemed to have noticed something, or deliberately brought the topic to the case itself, "Your Majesty, in the case of stealing flowers, it seems that someone pretended to be the uncle of the country.
, Robbery of civilian girls, but in fact, it seems that this is not a crime. Instead, it is a challenge to the imperial power. Are you right?"
Liu Xie wanted to answer, but Zuo Ci warned again: "Your Majesty, I am a foreigner. I will not remember what I said, and I will forget what I heard. So I hope you can speak frankly."
"……good!"
Liu Xie took a deep breath and decided to take a gamble, because he always felt that he had no secrets in front of Zuo Ci. In this case, there was no need to hide it, which would weaken the power of the emperor.
"It seems that sir must have noticed something special about me, right?"
"Yes, there is nothing in the world that can be hidden from me."
Liu Xie nodded, "Then I would like to ask, what would you do, sir?"
"It depends on your Majesty's choice." Zuo Ci said this with a mysterious smile, "Because all major events in the world are like this. No matter who is in power, it is good for the people. If it is not good, it is bad. It doesn't matter who he is, what he does is important.
!”
Zuo Ci's words sounded like a sharp move, but in fact Liu Xie knew very well that he was trying to beat himself up. He had never been spoken to like this by anyone since he and Cao Cao punished him as the Five Lords.
It's hard to describe how it feels, but if he can say it like this, it's at least a sign of approval for himself.
