Previously, the master called each one in for questioning, but he only came out looking a little ugly.
When he heard his master's words, he knelt down and said, "Master, I know I made a mistake. I beg you to give me a chance to correct myself. I will punish you no matter how you punish me. I just ask you not to drive me away."
ah."
"Tong San, what's wrong with you?"
"What the hell did you do?"
"That's right, the master will not drive you away without any reason. What's going on?" The people around him asked in low voices.
Tong San sat on his knees on the ground, his eyes dull and full of regret: "The master asked me what happened on the raft, but I didn't tell the truth." After saying that, he raised his hand and slapped himself, although his companion grabbed his hand in time to stop him.
, but the corners of his mouth were already bleeding in just those two moments.
Well, after hearing what he said, the people who originally wanted to plead with him fell silent.
For the master, lying is equivalent to betrayal, especially the person involved in the matter is really a very important person in the master's heart.
Just look at how the master punishes Miss Biao and you will know.
Tong San suddenly drew his sword and wanted to kill himself to apologize, but was stopped by his companions. He glanced at the quiet study room, several people exchanged glances, and took Tong San away.
In the blink of an eye, winter turns to spring.
On the streets of Xuzhou City, a woman with a big belly was shopping, accompanied by a man and a man. Everyone she met along the way, whether they were merchants or pedestrians, respectfully called Mrs. Gu.
"You're tired, let's go into the teahouse and rest before shopping." The man saw the teahouse on the roadside and said to Mrs. Gu.
Mrs. Nagu nodded and followed into the teahouse.
The waiter in the teahouse immediately came forward and wanted to take them to the private seats on the second floor.
"Sit here, isn't there a seat?" Mrs. Gu pointed to a seat by the window facing the street, and the waiter hurried over and wiped the already clean tables and chairs carefully.
Several guests at the next table were chatting while drinking tea: "Have you heard that the current crown prince has been deposed because it was found that he had designed and killed Queen Mother Ji back then? However, His Majesty the Emperor
He intended to make King Ji the crown prince, but King Ji refused. Don’t the princes all want that position?"
Mrs. Gu listened to the gossip with a smile and ate the peanuts peeled by the girl.
"I have heard a little bit about King Ji. It is said that he suddenly lost his sight when he was young, and his mother and concubine were killed. But even though he lost his sight, he could still do things for His Majesty. I don't know what happened last year.
Something had disappeared, and it was rumored that he had been killed and was no longer alive.
However, less than a year later, he said he had been found. After returning to the capital, not only did he find out the cause of his mother's death, but he could also see his eyes. It is said that King Ji's eyes were also given to him by the prince.
You're blind because of poison." Another tea customer nearby said.
At this moment, Mrs. Gu, who was sitting by the window, had just picked up the hot tea she was about to drink when it suddenly dropped on the table with a squeak.
"Madam, you didn't get burned, did you?"
"What's going on?" The girl and the man looked nervously at her hands and body.
The gossiping tea-goers only glanced this way and continued to chat about the anecdotes they had heard.
"I'm fine, I didn't get burned. I just lost my focus and lost my balance." Mrs. Gu looked at the nervous look of the two people in front of her and said quickly.
"Ma'am, do you want to change seats?" The waiter also ran over and asked with concern.
Mrs. Gu smiled and said no. Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, the two companions had no choice but to sit down again.
The girl changed the tea cup for Mrs. Gu and poured tea again. This time she did not put it directly in her hand, but moved it away a little and tested the temperature with the back of her hand after a while.
Mrs. Gu's attention seemed to be on the cakes and snacks in front of her, but in fact, she was listening to the conversation at the next table.
Could it be the King Ji they just mentioned?
But if not, how could it be such a coincidence that he disappeared less than a year ago, was poisoned and lost his sight when he was young, and when he was found last year, his eyes recovered and he could see?
Several keywords were connected together, and no matter how she thought about it, she felt that King Ji should be that person.
The man she had been married to for nine months was the father of the child in her belly.
Fortunately, the tea guest at the next table still continued the previous topic, talking about the prince who didn't even want the position of prince.
"That King Ji is very strange. His eyesight has healed and he has to avenge his great vengeance, but he doesn't want to be the prince. He even asked for orders to go out to quell the rebellion. I really don't know what he thinks. He is so blessed that he doesn't know how to enjoy it." Tea
The guest shook his head and sighed as he spoke.
"We ordinary people can understand the royal affairs. If King Ji doesn't want to be the crown prince, he has a reason not to do it. Maybe he thinks it's not time yet, so he can lead his troops to quell the rebellion and earn more money."
After his achievements, the position of prince will still be his." Another older man said, twirling his gray beard.
The people at the same table agreed with his point of view and nodded one after another. In this place where the emperor is far away, there is no need to be afraid even if you talk about royal gossip.
In Xuzhou, let alone no garrison, even the government offices are abandoned.
"How can it be so easy to suppress a rebellion? Once things are calmed down here, there will be chaos elsewhere."
"I don't care whether there is chaos elsewhere. Anyway, as long as our Xuzhou can stay like this, it's good. There is no government office."
"Then don't think too much. If this place remains so stable and the capital hears the news, His Majesty the Emperor will send officials here if the situation is not preserved."
"Don't worry, everyone, that kind of thing is unlikely, at least not within a few years or more."
The guests at the table suddenly changed the topic.
Mrs. Gu couldn't hear what she wanted to hear. She frowned and said she was tired, got up and walked out. She had already walked out of the teahouse and could no longer hear the words of the tea guests inside.
"Hey, it would be great if Mrs. Gu was a man."
"What do you mean? It doesn't matter that Mrs. Gu is a woman. If it weren't for her, Xuzhou could be so stable? Can we gather here to drink tea, chat and argue? Maybe we can escape somewhere."
"No, what I mean is that more and more people are coming to seek refuge. If Xuzhou, Langcheng, and Peicheng are merged, the territory will be quite large. If Mrs. Gu were a man, she would have the courage to become king on her own."
"Everyone, even if Mrs. Gu has the courage now, she won't do it." The waiter who came up to refill the tea said with a smile.
"What do you know, kid?" the older man scolded with a smile.
The waiter was dissatisfied and threw the tea towel over his shoulder: "I don't know anything, but everyone here knows as much as I do. Who is the lady sitting at the table over there just now?"
Following the waiter's gaze, everyone looked over and remembered that a woman had just held her teacup unsteadily.
"She? Is it possible that she is?" Someone who responded quickly asked in surprise.
The waiter nodded proudly, and when he saw the guests at other tables leaving, he hurried over to clean up.
What? The pregnant woman just now is the famous Mrs. Gu here? Everyone couldn’t believe it, and they looked annoyed. They just came here not long ago, and they had no chance to meet Mrs. Gu.
.
But it’s unimaginable that you can’t recognize people in front of you!
However, Mrs. Gu looks very ordinary and ordinary except for being good-looking. How could she do such an unusual thing?
At this time, the very ordinary Mrs. Gu was sitting in a small sedan, lowered her head and caressed her swollen belly, and whispered: "My children, I finally know your father's surname."
After being apart for so long, I finally heard news about him, but should I make sure again...
