I can't tell him the truth, saying that I know you will be a famous general in the future, so I want to capture you in advance?
Under Di Qing's piercing eyes, Kou Ji pondered for a long time, and then said with a click: "I have been assassinated several times, and I am in urgent need of protection from someone with strong martial arts skills. I see that you are not very old, but you are very tall.
You are tall and must have extraordinary talents and extraordinary bravery, so I plan to take you into my house as a follower and block my swords on weekdays."
When Di Qing heard this, he nodded doubtfully.
After all, he was a poor boy who had just come from the countryside. He had not experienced any experience on the battlefield, nor had he experienced ups and downs in the officialdom, so he actually believed Kou Ji's lies.
Zhang Lun blushed and roared behind Kou Ji, "No one can take the prisoner away from here without my order."
"snort……"
Kou Ji turned his back to him and snorted softly.
For Di Qing, it was very cost-effective and worthwhile to offend Zhang Lun.
"It's a good time to stay in jail. The official will come to see you tomorrow."
After casually giving instructions to Di Qing, Kou Ji shook off his sleeves and left the prison of the Criminal Department.
Di Qing stared at Kou Ji's leaving figure, his face full of doubts.
Zhang Lun stared at Kou Ji's back, gritted his teeth, and wanted to eat him alive.
He has been an official for many years and has never seen such an arrogant subordinate.
He has been an official for many years and has never seen anyone so disrespectful to him.
Even though the current officials would affectionately call him Zhang Aiqing when they met him, Kou Ji actually dared to call him a common man in front of him.
It is tolerable and mature but unbearable.
"Left and right, pass the order and immediately send people to Fenzhou Xihe to find out the details of Di Qing and find out the connections in this case. If there is any grievance, report it immediately.
If you encounter any obstruction, kill them on the spot!"
"Tell the people below to let go and let me investigate Kou Ji. There is no need to worry about the Kou Mansion anymore."
"..."
Zhang Lun shouted these words with red eyes.
His teacher tugged on his goatee and said with a wry smile: "Dong Weng, if you do this, you will be facing off against Mr. Kou... It is really unwise."
Zhang Lun glared and shouted: "Shu Zi has gone too far to bully others. If I don't teach him a lesson, I will be laughed at by my colleagues in the court. If Kou Xiangruo takes action against me because of this Shu Zi, I will hang my seal."
Go and see where his prime minister's face goes."
"Dong Weng..."
The teacher wanted to persuade, but was rudely interrupted by Zhang Lun, "No need to persuade anymore, I have made up my mind. You go and help me draft a memorial. I want to impeach him."
…
Outside the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.
Kou Ji got on the sedan chair, gave instructions, and asked the sedan bearers to carry him to the palace.
He was in the sedan chair, secretly thinking about today's events.
Di Qing obviously had a grievance, but he confused right and wrong and insisted on saying that there was no grievance in Di Qing's case.
This was a double entendre, leaving a way out for myself.
Di Qing did have a grievance, but this case was not unfair.
Even if Zhang Lun brought this case to the court, Kou Ji could rely on this to get around it.
As for why he didn't expose Di Qing on the spot for helping his brother take the blame, he also had his own considerations.
It has become a fact that Di Qing took the blame for his brother.
If Kou Ji exposes this matter and lets Zhang Lun investigate, then Di Qing's brother will definitely be dug out.
Brother Di Qing not only killed someone, but also found someone to blame him. He was punished for both crimes and would be beheaded.
Di Qing took the blame for his brother. Although it was out of filial piety, he was still guilty. He might get a lighter punishment, but he would definitely be punished.
By that time, one of the two sons of the Di family will be beheaded, and the other will be sentenced to prison or exile, and the entire Di family will be destroyed.
Di's father and Di's mother might even seek death and survival.
It's hard to say whether Di Qing can become the famous General Mian Nirvana after facing this kind of family tragedy.
It was precisely because of this consideration that Kou Ji helped Di Qing conceal the fact that he was guilty.
In addition, Kou Ji also has his own selfish motives.
Di Qing's appearance was an unexpected surprise for him, and he had to keep Di Qing firmly in his hands.
Once the case is overturned, Di Qing will definitely be returned to his original place. Kou Ji will have to go through a lot of troubles if he wants to get Di Qing back.
Moreover, after Di Qing is returned to his native place, there are also variables as to whether he can appear next to Kou Ji again.
Di Qing is the person that Kou Ji must keep in his hands, so he doesn't want to see any changes.
…
Kou Ji's sedan chair swayed to the front of Donghua Gate.
He flashed his badge at the guards at the Jinshui Bridge.
The guards turned around and ran away.
Kou Ji was left standing there blankly, with a confused look on his face.
"What's going on?"
Only a few breaths passed from the time Kou Ji appeared until the guards at the Jinshui Bridge disappeared.
Kou Ji stood in front of the Jinshui Bridge, neither advancing nor retreating.
After a long time, a eunuch appeared at the bridge head swinging a whisk.
He stood on the other side of the bridge and shouted to Kou Ji, "Is Kou Shidu going to enter the palace?"
Although Kou Ji was expelled from the East Palace by Liu E, she did not take back Kou Ji's waist card, nor did she take back Kou Ji's official position as Crown Prince's Attendant, so it was not wrong for the eunuchs to call him Kou Shidu.
Kou Ji said in astonishment: "Otherwise..."
The eunuch laughed dryly and said, "I wonder why Kou Shidu came to the palace?"
Kou Ji frowned and said: "Why do I enter the palace? Do I need to explain to you? I have a badge granted by the official family and can enter and exit the palace. You want to stop me?"
The eunuch smiled, nodded and said, "We don't dare...it's just that the Queen has ordered that you are not allowed to enter the palace to see His Highness the Crown Prince. If you enter the palace to see His Highness the Crown Prince, then please come back."
When Kou Ji heard this, he suddenly realized.
No wonder those guards felt like they were seeing a savage beast when they saw him.
It turned out that Liu E had issued a ban, not allowing him to enter the palace to see the prince.
When he appears outside the palace, he is a trouble to the guards.
They couldn't afford to offend the Kou family, and they couldn't afford to offend the queen, so they could only avoid Kou Ji.
Kou Ji figured out the connection, sighed, and said, "Don't worry, I am entering the palace because I have government affairs to report, so I won't go to the East Palace."
When the eunuch heard this, he did not believe Kou Ji's words, but said with a smile: "Kou Shidu wants to go to the palace to report government affairs, and our family dare not stop him. But if Kou Shidu deceives our family and goes to the East Palace secretly, we will
It’s not easy to explain things to your mother-in-law at home.
Do you think it would be convenient for you to let our family follow you?"
Kou Ji rolled his eyes, "Then just follow..."
The eunuch was overjoyed and made a gesture of invitation.
Kou Ji stepped across the Jinshui Bridge, and the eunuch followed closely behind him.
At the entrance of Donghua, he flashed his waist badge again before entering the palace.
When Kou Ji entered the palace, the court meeting had already dispersed.
If he wanted to report government affairs, he could only go to Zishi Tang.
After Kou Ji entered the palace, the eunuch carefully guided him to Zishitang.
Whenever Kou Ji moved to another place, the eunuch would quickly remind him that he was on the wrong path.
