Although the wealthy man woke up, he was not in good spirits.
Gao Xiaoliu was kicked out before he could say a few words.
"Why does father want everyone to know that we did it?" He told Zhike, frowning again, "Father also agrees with Xitang's approach?"
Zhike looked proud: "Whatever Xitang dares to do, I will naturally dare to do it."
Gao Xiaoliu looked disgusted: "You really flatter my father everywhere."
Zhike smiled: "I treat you the same way."
Gao Xiaoliu was amused by him.
"In short, I can see that people are forgetful." He snorted and said, "It has only been four years, and everyone can't help but be eager to try. The actor in the east hall, the ruler in the west hall, and now I
So does dad."
Zhike corrected with a smile: "It's not ruler, people are called Qixing. Master, please don't give people random names."
Gao Xiaoliu snorted and turned the dice in his hand. This dice was indeed useful and worth carrying with him, but the craftsman who made the dice was not qualified to be remembered by his name.
"Be careful, we can't withstand the storm," he said.
Two servants came over at this time, one holding a tray and the other carrying tea soup.
"Master is going to have dinner." Zhike said, "Sir, you should go and have dinner too."
Gao Xiaoliu looked at the plate of pickled vegetables and the plate of steamed cakes on the tray, looked up to the sky, and pointed to the Huixian Building in front of him: "Put them in the Tianzihao room for me."
At this point he muttered again.
"I know why my father opened a restaurant in the first place. It's because the restaurant has delicacies from all over the world that can be eaten with meals."
“In ancient times, you could have a meal with salted fish, but now you can have a meal in a restaurant.”
When I say this, I think of Tianzihao who has died.
"This damn actor should be caught by the government and taught a lesson."
Huo Lian was not at all worried about arresting a Mo disciple.
It's already rare to have a few words of banter with a soldier from Jingzhao Mansion.
Huo Lian doesn't like to talk very much. He only listens to the emperor's words and hears what the emperor needs from him.
For example, at today's small court meeting, several courtiers were confused about whether to punish or forgive an old case. The case involved was an old minister. His nephew did not live up to expectations and embezzled money to repair the river, which ruined the family tradition. As an elder, it is inevitable that
He is gentle and protective of his children and grandchildren, and hides himself from each other.
After the incident, the old minister had already made up the money to repair the river, and the children and grandchildren who had committed the crime were also sentenced to exile. Therefore, some people thought that it was enough for the veteran to be dismissed from his official post, retire and return to his hometown. After all, he was a highly respected veteran of the late emperor's time.
Some people also talked about what happened between the old minister and the late emperor. There was even a time when the old minister celebrated his birthday, and the late emperor went to celebrate his birthday privately.
The emperor sitting behind the imperial desk sighed softly when he heard this.
The emperor has just turned thirty this year. As a young son who has never thought of becoming a crown prince or an emperor - his elder brother is the prince, and he will not compete with his brother. If his brother is not the prince, his father has other people he loves more.
The prince, it is not his turn to be the youngest son who killed the queen.
When he became emperor, it was beyond everyone's expectations, including himself, so even though he sat on the throne, he still had a somewhat reserved look on his face.
The late emperor told him before his death, please listen more.
Therefore, although he has a somewhat stubborn personality, he still respects the courtiers and listens to them patiently.
"Yes, Mr. Sun has outstanding knowledge and has many students. Even my brother studied with him." He said, "I was still young at that time and secretly watched Mr. Sun's lectures. He also invited me in to listen and said that I don't have to worry about studying early.
Even dolls can listen.”
The courtiers also lamented that it was such a pity for Mr. Sun, as it was all the debt of his children and grandchildren.
The atmosphere in the emperor's study has relaxed a lot.
But at this moment, Huo Lian, who was standing aside, spoke: "Master Sun once sent a letter to the King of Sin, and made an appointment to travel to the capital together."
As soon as these words came out, the whole study was filled with dead silence.
The emperor's face instantly fell.
Although he was a prince who had never been taught as an emperor, he was now an emperor. When he looked down, Long Wei suddenly appeared.
The hearts of the courtiers also sank, Master Sun was finished.
As mentioned before, the new emperor was stubborn, and the most important manifestation was the case of King Jin.
When the queen died in childbirth giving birth to the sixth prince, the late emperor already had a new favorite and hated the young son even more. The sixth prince had no one to discipline him and was almost raised by the prince.
For the sixth prince, his brother's death was more painful than his father's death.
Therefore, the emperor was very kind to Huo Lian who stopped the rebellion of King Jin, and was extremely harsh on people and things involving King Jin.
Now there is no need for everyone to argue about whether Mr. Sun should be sentenced or forgiven. Mr. Sun will be taken away directly by the Inspector General.
Once you enter Duchasi, you will not be able to come out alive, you will definitely be dead.
It is a blessing that Mr. Sun and his family are dead, but I am afraid that others will be implicated.
For a while, there was no other voice, and no one criticized the emperor. Naturally, it was Huo Lian who cursed in private.
"How long has it been since the Jin Wang case? How could there be any omissions when the investigation was so strict?"
"It's just a trap! Three years ago, Mr. Sun saw Huo Lian on the road and refused to give way, so he held a grudge."
"What a mad dog."
"Why isn't he dead?"
"Didn't you say that there was some kind of chivalrous Mo disciple? Why not hang him in Huixian Tower too?"
Huo Lian couldn't hear all the noise, and no one dared to come to him and say that he wouldn't go to Huixian Tower. It wasn't that he didn't dare, but that he didn't have time.
Huo Lian is a very conscientious person who investigates cases personally and lives with the criminal in the cell until the criminal confesses.
Huo Lian sat on an iron stool and roasted the chicken legs over a hot iron fire, making the oil sizzle and sparkle.
"Master Sun has taken the charge." Zhu Chuan came over with the charges, a little regretful, "I haven't used any punishment yet."
Huo Lian was not surprised. After entering the Ducha Division, there was no one who refused to confess. The old man was even more pampered and used people as a sedan when he walked every day.
"It's a pity that he won't know who harmed him until his death." He said, looking at the dancing fire, "he will only call me Huo Lian."
Zhu Chuan curled his lips: "Although I have not gone to court, I know that it is the group of good friends and students who said good things for him and wanted to be pardoned. They are making noises with His Majesty all day long. Is this bullying His Majesty's youth?"
Yes, if you confess your sins honestly and take the blame, your high moral standing will no longer exist, your students and disciples will also draw a clear line, and the emperor will not care about this old life.
However, Mr. Sun couldn't recognize it clearly, and the others also followed suit.
No, it's not that they don't recognize it clearly. After all, with their wealth and status, they have always been above others. They are not willing to give up, and they don't believe that they will be reduced to like those people they once didn't care about.
"It's been four years, and I still can't see clearly what His Majesty wants. I'm still greedy and lingering. They deserve to be in our Ducha Division." Huo Lian said.
Would a prince who has never been regarded as a crown prince really regard the courtiers of the late emperor or his brother as his own courtiers?
Huo Lian picked up the roasted chicken leg and took a bite, eating and drinking in front of the torture rack.
Everyone outside cursed him for a good death.
Others said that he did so many evil things that he dared not sleep at night and had to sleep with 17 or 18 women.
But in fact he slept very well and didn't even dream.
