The emperor sneered: "You really dare to accept my thank you. Do you think it's my first day as emperor? Is there no minister of civil and military affairs in my court? I've never taken medicine and don't know what good medicine tastes bitter?" After saying that, he patted the armrest.
, "Chen Danzhu, do you know your guilt?"
Chen Danzhu knelt down and kowtowed: "I know your sin."
The emperor's voice fell from above his head: "Say."
Chen Danzhu lowered his head and looked at his knees: "Actually, that's what they said just now. My daughter's family has a grudge against Zhang Meiren's family, and my daughter's purpose is to prevent her family from having an easy time."
The emperor said oh.
"That's what happened when your brother died." He looked down at the girl kneeling in front of him, "If you say so, I am also your enemy, so you don't want me to have an easy time."
Chen Danzhu lowered his head and couldn't see the emperor's expression, but he could feel the cold gaze.
The Iron-faced General called her into the palace last time and said that he would give her a chance to win His Majesty's trust, but in fact His Majesty would not believe her. Just like that Li Liang captured the Kingdom of Wu and beheaded the King of Wu, and then eradicated it for the Emperor.
The remnant of King Wu - but the emperor did not trust him and only used him.
In this life, the emperor treated her the same way.
She led the court envoys to frighten the King of Wu, invited the emperor in, and allowed the emperor to take the advantage, defeated the King of Zhou, and wiped the Kingdom of Wu from Daxia - but in the eyes of the emperor, she could betray the King of Wu this time.
, you can betray the emperor next time.
Rebellious ministers have been like this since ancient times. Chen Danzhu is not aggrieved. This is her own choice. Of course she has to bear the consequences. She does not ask for the emperor's trust, so the emperor does not trust her and is not alarmed.
She immediately shook her head: "Your Majesty, it doesn't count."
The emperor asked: "Why am I not considered one? Don't tell me that although you are a minister of Wu, you are a citizen of Daxia and the emperor. Your brother's attack on my troops was disobedient and he deserved what he deserved. You don't need to say these words."
explain."
Why do some of the words sound familiar? Chen Danzhu thought, and also thought that the emperor was pretty good at speaking. He had finished speaking, so of course she didn't need to speak anymore——
"Your Majesty." She had something else to say, "My dear, it's not because of this. Your Majesty's soldiers and horses are with my brother, regardless of right or wrong, regardless of whether the monarch or his ministers. At that time, the two sides were fighting, and the opponent was fighting, so there was victory.
There are losses, there is life and death. If you are not as good as others, it is your own business to lose. We in the Chen family are not capable of resenting a strong opponent, but Zhang Jianjun is different——"
She raised her head, clenched her hands, bit her lower lip, her face full of grief and anger.
"He is one of our own. My brother treats him as a comrade and entrusts the safety of our rear to him. However, he stabbed my brother in the back and harmed my brother. Of course he is a sworn enemy. I see him like this, and he sees me like this."
, get along quickly, Your Majesty, he bullied us in front of the King of Wu because he relied on Meiren Zhang to win the favor of the King of Wu. If Your Majesty also favors Meiren Zhang, the Zhang Jianjun family will be domineering again and will definitely bully our family.
How can we survive—"
The little girl became more and more excited as she spoke, tears welling up in her eyes——
The emperor coughed softly: "Don't just say that I am favored by you. If you are favored by me, don't slander me."
Chen Danzhu sat back, lowered his head and replied: "My daughter is guilty."
The emperor looked at the little girl who was sitting obediently and said calmly: "If you don't insist that I am guilty at this time, it is you who is guilty? Do you want me to punish you so that you can fulfill your reputation as a loyal minister of King Wu?"
Chen Danzhu lowered his head: "My daughter dares to plead guilty, not because she is not afraid of punishment and a good reputation."
The emperor asked: "Why is that?"
Chen Danzhu raised his head and looked at the emperor on the throne: "It's because we are facing His Majesty."
Hearing this sentence, Mr. Wang couldn't help but pull the Iron Mask General's sleeves in front of the window panes outside the palace, and shouted in a low voice: "It's coming, it's coming, it's starting again -"
This is the trick that was used against the Iron-faced General, and this little girl is using her sweet words to deceive again!
The Iron-faced General shook off his hand and whispered: "Shut up, don't make any noise——"
The emperor coughed several times in the hall.
"What do you mean?" He frowned, "Are you saying that I'm easy to bully or easy to talk to?"
Chen Danzhu shook his head: "No, I am saying that Your Majesty is a person who cares about the world. Your heart is not just because of a beauty, but because of a few questions, you will kill others. Therefore, I dare to do it in front of you."
Even though I am arrogant, I dare to bow my head and plead guilty before you, because your reward and punishment are just."
The emperor was startled. When he saw that the little girl was no longer angry and grieving as before, she no longer pretended to cry. Her eyes were warm and her mouth was smiling slightly, as if she was sitting in the spring light, relaxed and happy——
"Chen Danzhu, Chen Danzhu," the emperor said, laughing suddenly and waving his hand, "Go!"
A slight smile bloomed on Chen Danzhu's face like a flower. Without saying a word or asking too many questions, he bowed neatly: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." He stood up, picked up his skirt, walked out, crossed the threshold, turned around and ran away.
Mr. Wang watched her running down the steps as vigorously as a deer in the blink of an eye——
The Iron-faced General entered the hall and looked at the strange-looking emperor sitting on the throne.
"Your Majesty," he said, "Why are you scaring her?"
These words seemed like a question. Mr. Wang stopped outside the palace and stopped walking in. He heard the emperor's voice coming from inside.
Because of the smile, the emperor's voice was not as majestic as before: "I'm just curious, I want to see if this little girl is really that good at lying."
The Iron Masked General's voice was still old and hoarse, and his emotions could not be heard: "How did your Majesty feel after watching this?"
The emperor's voice laughed: "You are really good at deceiving people."
...
...
Chen Danzhu ran all the way, but did not run out of the palace quickly. On the way, he was stopped by Wenzhong Zhang Jianjun and others who had come out earlier. King Wu was also among them. Zhang Meiren had already gone back.
Seeing Chen Danzhu walking easily and intact, everyone looked relaxed and disappointed - they didn't offend the emperor, so they wouldn't be implicated. Alas, it's such a pity that the emperor didn't kill her.
Chen Danzhu salutes the King of Wu.
King Wu said: "Miss Danzhu, you are too reckless. You almost caused big trouble for me."
Chen Danzhu lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes with a soft voice: "Your Majesty, my daughter is doing this for the great——"
Here we go again! Wen Zhong interrupted Chen Danzhu: "Miss Danzhu, do you still feel aggrieved?"
Chen Danzhu immediately raised his eyes, his gaze and voice cold: "I am not aggrieved, I am just aggrieved for the king."
King Wu coughed lightly: "Miss Danzhu, I know your loyalty to Gu——"
Zhang Jianjun shouted to the side, "Don't be deceived by her!" He looked downcast and looked at Chen Danzhu, his eyes full of anger and grief: "Chen Danzhu, what are you worried about? My daughter is so sick.
You want her to die on the way, you are really murderous and heart-wrenching!"
"As a minister of the King, let alone illness, even if you die, the coffin will follow the King!" Chen Danzhu looked at him, "What kind of peace of mind do I have? My heart belongs to the King!"
Zhang Jianjun almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Chen Danzhu——Your Majesty is here today." He pointed at Chen Danzhu, "It's all because of you. Please feel your conscience——"
How dare she say that her heart is the king's heart?
Chen Danzhu touched her heart. There was nothing she didn't dare to say. In the last life, King Wu's head was chopped off. In this life, she let King Wu's head rest on his neck, so that he could be accompanied by beauties and courtiers.
