Reborn Lord

Xue Xunting never expected that the matter would be revealed so quickly.

For 15 years, he even forgot what that woman looked like...

In a blink of an eye, the glory and status brought by being in a high position for these years have long been rotten in the bottom of my heart, as if he has disappeared with his good reputation outside these years, and never existed.

But that day, with the sudden appearance of the dancer girl, the buried past was uncovered again, and the unbearable scenes were revealed again. Even if there was nothing unusual at that time, he just had an ominous premonition.

But how?

He lowered his head, looked at the eight words from Zong Lie, frowned tightly, and suddenly thought of something, he stood up abruptly, trembling all over his body.

He opened the mechanism of the study almost with trembling hands, and approached the secret room very quickly, but when he saw the intact booklet, Xue Xunting heaved a sigh of relief.

Maybe it was not a coincidence that those people disappeared, I was afraid that he would retaliate, otherwise, how could it be possible for someone to do all this in less than ten days, if the other party had such ability, how could it be possible to wait for fifteen years?

What's more, that trash Chang Ronghuan doesn't have the ability.

But at a glance from the corner of the eye, Xue Xunting saw the torn corner, Xue Xunting's well-maintained face, and opened the page violently, seeing the torn page on it, Xue Xunting's whole body went limp... ...Barely holding on to the dark space, he stabilized his figure.

At this moment, the housekeeper's panicked voice came from the study outside the secret passage again: "Master, master...it's not good! Someone from the state government came, and said, said it was... the rape and murder case 15 years ago made the master... Go to the state government!"

With a hoarse voice, Xue Xunting opened his eyes, almost bleeding from his eyes. He stared at the booklet, and slammed his fist on the dark grid. There was a loud bang, which scared the butler outside the study to turn pale.

Outside the state government office, a lot of common people had gathered around at some time ago. They looked at the distance with hoarse voices. The blood-red young man made the other party's pale appearance more frail and pitiful.

Everyone was silent and watched the other party walking towards them with three steps and one kneeling, and when they got closer, they all spontaneously moved out of the way.

Pei Chao had burst into tears a long time ago, especially listening to the voices condemning Xue Xunting for Pei's family and him all the way. The hard shell that had been disguised for 15 years finally cracked and began to crack and crack, killing him He bit his lip to prevent the choking sound from coming out.

The villain has not been punished, he cannot fall...

When he arrived in front of the state government office, he stood up slowly. Because he knelt too much, there was blood on his forehead, mixed with tears, and he was extremely embarrassed. The tall man with eye circles was supported.

Pei Chaohong kept her eyes open, and did not refuse the other party's support. She just turned around slowly with this strength, bowed deeply to everyone, and then stepped into the state government office without hesitation.

Walking step by step towards the "mirror hanging high" lobby, the state government officials stood in two rows, all silent.

As he walked, Pei Chao said, "Pei Chao, a grassroots man, is guilty...Da Zhao...killed seven people..."

Following this sound, Chang Ronghuan, who followed silently behind him with his black gauze cap in his arms, had already blushed. He looked at the pair in front of him who were helping each other, and his heart felt depressed as if he had been hit again and again.

The appearance of Pei's daughter kneeling in the hall 15 years ago flashed in his mind, her snow-white lips trembling, her teary eyes shaking her head: My lord, the daughter of the people is innocent... she was really raped...

How could he have the heart to choose to turn a blind eye for the sake of the whole family?He's guilty... guilty...

Chang Ronghuan said in a hoarse voice, "I am Chang Ronghuan, the prefect of Ningzhou. I am guilty, the late emperor... because my family was threatened by Xue Xunting, the current head of the Xue family, I had no choice but to join forces and misjudged Pei's daughter for adultery. The family and the Shi family were ruined...not guilty...I am prosperous and happy, and I deserve death...I don't deserve to be the official of this parent..."

All the yamen servants looked at this scene in bewilderment, and were dumbfounded. If it weren't for their lords, they would not have believed it if they had confessed... But now listening to and watching them, they made a hoarse voice, it was actually Can't say a word.

The people outside the hall followed Pei Chao and the others to the outside of the state government office. Hearing Chang Ronghuan's voice, they wanted to reprimand them, but they couldn't utter a single word.

The other party deserves to die, because it was his misjudgment that caused the Pei family and the Shi family to suffer so badly, but the other party was threatened by Xue Xunting. ...

Therefore, the anger that could not be vented in the hearts of the people finally found an outlet when Xue Xunting, who was brought here, arrived. If there were no yamen servants to stop him, Xue Xunting would have been beaten beyond recognition long ago.

It was probably the first time for Xue Xunting to be insulted like this. A group of blocked people scolded him with words he had never heard before, making his face dark and terrifying, but he didn't say a word.

Straightening his back, he stepped into the state office majesticly and indifferently. When he saw Chang Ronghuan standing beside the hall, his eyes were even more poisonously cold.

Chang Ronghuan didn't look at him at all, but lowered his eyes while holding his black hat, looking at Pei Chao and Chang Wenbai who were kneeling in front of him.

He seemed to be in a daze before his eyes, and Pei Chao's father seemed to flash through his mind, that hunter with excellent skills, with a pure and honest face, every time he went to buy leather, the other party chose the best one for him to take, but That's it, how did he have the heart to harm the whole family because of them?

In the past 15 years, he has suffered a lot in his heart, but he has been led by the secular world step by step. He has committed so many crimes that it would not be a pity to kill him, but Wen Bai...Wen Bai...his wife and children are innocent ...

If Pei Chao died, his son might not live alone.

This is all his fault, why let them pay for it?

Chang Ronghuan clutched the black gauze cap tightly, regretting endlessly.

He raised his head, looked at Lu Mo Ning who was standing in the hall in official uniform, and finally let out a sigh of relief. He was suddenly glad that he had someone invite him back then. Although the other party revealed his deepest secret, but at the same time It also freed him completely, and he didn't have to bear those shackles, day and night, without peace.

Chang Ronghuan suddenly hugged the black hat and knelt down willingly.

It stands to reason that he is only a suspect now. He has a great reputation, so there is no need for him, but he still knelt down...

He was guilty of a heinous crime, indeed, and deserved death.Following Chang Ronghuan's kneeling, everyone's hearts were also knocked. On the other hand, Xue Xunting, the culprit, stood there arrogantly, without moving. Indifference and disdain: "I don't know at that time, when a small seventh-rank county magistrate will be able to interrogate the fifth-rank magistrate on his behalf. What a joke! You are not qualified to interrogate this old man. Let Bichang Rong Huan a bigger official, otherwise... don't blame the old man for accusing you of a crime of overreach!"

The other party's words made the people guarding outside the hall so angry that they couldn't help making noises, and were slowly suppressed by the yamen servants.

Lu Mo Ning glanced at Xue Xunting indifferently, and suddenly the corners of his mouth curled up, making Xue Xunting frown, and then he heard the other party's cold voice, as if accumulating flowing ice water, slipping over the tip of his heart, causing a wave of uneasy trembling : "Oh? When did the officer say that the trial will be overtaken? Could it be that Patriarch Xue is too impatient."

After all, when Xue Xunting was stunned, a figure slowly came out from the back hall, with a silent and selfless face, which made Xue Xunting, who had heard about the other party, stunned.

"Why, Patriarch Xue thinks that this official is qualified to interrogate a fifth-rank magistrate?" The man was over half a century old, but he was full of arrogance, with a terrifying aura all over his body. He raised his chin slightly, and looked at Xue Xunting indifferently with his tiger eyes. , made Xue Xunting stiff all over. After a long time, he lowered his eyes and covered his eyes in disbelief: "Governor Luo...I don't know when I arrived in Ningzhou, and I never greeted him..."

The man interrupted him with a cold face: "Don't talk nonsense, I just want to ask you a question. Is this governor qualified to interrogate a prefect on behalf of a prefect? ​​Hmm?"

Xue Xunting felt a sense of exhaustion all over his body. He never thought that he would encounter such a difficult problem when he turned his back like this. If it was the new emperor, it was a good thing to say, but this... was the old department of Emperor Yunji back then. .

Emperor Zhao didn't want to make a fuss over the past few years. After slowly gaining power, he began to withdraw the military power of these people little by little for various reasons, and this was the first-rank commander of the Imperial Army who was next to Emperor Yunji back then. Yi Yi used reasons to get him a governor with low power, took away more than half of the military power, and the other party didn't hold it, but even so, even without the tiger charm, the soldiers in Governor Luo's hands still only listened to him. His is a master who cannot be offended.

In the news that was handed over from Dafang in the capital, there were a total of eight masters who could not be offended and demoted now. Governor Luo was one of them, and he was also the most stern and selfless one.

A few days ago Duke Ding had an accident, he sent someone there, spent a lot of money and finally settled it, Duke Ding asked him to keep a low profile recently, but he never thought about it, but at this juncture, the incident became violent come out.

Xue Xunting didn't know why, but he had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he only hoped that... the news he handed over to the nearest military camp before he came would last until the other party arrived.

Lu Mo Ning didn't expect Duan Jinsong to have such a great ability to invite this person over.

He originally thought that what the other party said would find someone to support him and make Xue Xunting speechless. At most, it was a prefect, but as far as he knew, the prefect who governs Ningzhou Prefecture now has a close relationship with the Xue family. He had already planned to head-to-head with the ten thousand connections, but he didn't expect...

Lu Mo Ning looked at Governor Luo Zhao with an upright face above him, feeling a little dazed, with a bit of regret in his eyes.

In his previous life, he had also heard about Master Luo's reputation, but unfortunately, when he came out of the back house, the other party died of illness a year ago.

Counting it, he died of illness more than a year later. He had never doubted it in his last life, but now, looking at the other party's angry appearance and those doubts about Emperor Zhao, looking at it now... I am afraid that the other party died of illness later. , I'm afraid there are tricks.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Zhao Tianji poked his sleeve lightly, his eyes signaled: What's wrong?

Lu Mo Ning glanced at the big beard the other party was wearing after his disguise, and felt a little inexplicably wanting to laugh. He suppressed the disappointment in his heart, and shook his head: I'll talk about it later.

Because of Governor Luo's appearance, Xue Xunting couldn't find any reason to refuse. Therefore, the case of Pei's daughter 15 years ago was immediately reversed with Chang Ronghuan's consent and plea documents submitted by Chang Ronghuan, and the trial was directly skipped. When the magistrate of Ningzhou found out, it was too late.

Looking at Governor Luo with a gangster look on his face, the prefect of Ningzhou Prefecture did not dare to breathe a sigh of relief, but Xue Xunting still refused to plead guilty in the face of the dozens of witnesses and physical evidence...he kept silent.

If it was someone else, it might be because they were timid and fearful of offending Duke Ding who would not dare to move the members of the Xue family, but who is Luo Zhao? He has never been afraid of anyone in his life except Emperor Yunji. Among the specific incidents that Chang Ronghuan explained, he even took out the letter that Xue Xunting threatened him back then, as well as the promotion document. The letter was written by Xue Xunting himself and his seal.

Xue Xunting was only in his 20s back then, so he never thought that this would become his fatal evidence.

When the burnt belt was taken out, Xue Xunting was dumbfounded.

Even the old thugs of the Xue family who were brought over by the dozen or so years ago, some of whom married wives and had children long ago, were kidnapped by Duan Jinsong and his family. Later, they silenced them, and simply took out the money that Xue Xunting used to buy them back then.

He explained how when Xue Xunting went to buy leather at Pei's house, he fell in love with Pei's daughter and had a wrong idea. Later, when he caught the opportunity and raped her masked, he returned to Xue's house because at that time Xue's family was in the election process. The next head of the family happened to be in a critical period at that time, and he got the news that the Pei family was going to sue.

Xue Xunting was afraid that the incident would affect him as the head of the family, so he did nothing but exterminate the family. He also threatened to bribe Chang Ronghuan, killed the three members of the Shi family, and framed them to burn the Pei family.

As the details of the year were revealed little by little, the people outside the hall were stunned, and then the call to bring Xue Xunting to justice was almost deafening, making Xue Xunting stand there, maintaining his composure, and he couldn't hide his changed face long ago .

Xue Xunting still refused to plead guilty later, saying that he was at Xue's house when the crime happened, and there was evidence that he was his wife and concubine.

However, at this time, the fourth house of Xue's family, who was told by Duan Jinsong, suddenly appeared to testify, saying that the other party was not in Xue's house at that time, and took the initiative to use his private power to arbitrarily move the warehouse in Xue's house, and took out the Xue Xunting was dumbfounded when the snow fox fur was handed over.

Everyone in the big house was startled by Xue Xunting's sudden murder and arrest, and they all tried to find a way to manage it. How could they expect such a thing to happen in the mansion.

When they got the news and came back, it was too late, and they were caught off guard.

Afterwards, everyone watched a scolding battle between the second and fourth house of Xue's family, but the fourth house insisted that Xue Xunting was not in Ningzhou at that time, and the piece of leather was the evidence, which made it impossible for Xue Xunting to refute.

In this way, even if Xue Xunting insisted on refusing to plead guilty, in the face of so many personal and material evidences, as well as the threatening letter written by him to Changronghuan, including the money receipts he had prepared for Changronghuan's promotion at that time , and the Xue family's bills that year, the eldest family of the Xue family didn't even know how the other party got it...

When everything was laid out, Luo Zhao didn't give Xue Xunting a chance at all. He was convicted based on public evidence and his dirty appearance was beyond doubt, so he was directly imprisoned for rape and homicide. The people burst into cheers.

After Xue Xunting heard it, he went into a rage on the spot: "Why, the old man is the head of the Xue family. Even if he is really guilty, there should be three trials instead of closing the case so easily! The old man refuses to accept it!"

Luo Zhao glanced at him: "Judgment in three courts? You think well. The governor asks you, do you have an official position? Do you have fame? Do you have a gold medal for avoiding death bestowed by successive emperors?"

As the other party jumped out word by word, Xue Xunting was speechless when asked.

Back then, the three branches of the Xue family were clearly divided. Their second wife was a "merchant". Although he had money, he was just a merchant. How could he have any fame?

Even Duke Ding doesn't have a gold medal for avoiding death, let alone him?

Luo Zhao slapped the startle, arrogantly: "Waiting for a lowly merchant, the governor is a second-ranker, and he can't directly convict a grassroots? Do you think you are a magistrate? He wants to report it. As for you... tell me, you have no official, no job, no fame, does this governor have the right to directly convict you?"

The common people outside were deafening in unison: "Yes!"

Luo Zhao slapped the gavel: "Come on, put him in a prison! After three days, the death row will be decided! If the death row prisoner is allowed to escape, I will ask Weier, the governor!"

All the servants were also affected by the emotions of the people at this moment, full of energy, they directly subdued Xue Xunting, gagged, tied him up, and took him away.

The people in the second room of Xue's family wanted to make trouble, Luo Zhao rolled his eyes and said, "Oh? You can think about it clearly, this governor is not that easy to deal with, this governor punishes you for a crime of disrespect, you don't have to directly Report, you can close it directly..."

The second room of the Xue family didn't dare to say more, scratching his heart and lungs in anxiety, but there was nothing he could do.

On the contrary, it is the fourth house, Yueyuegu failed to try, and the second house collapsed, but the crime of homicide will not harm the Xue family. At that time, a new one will be selected to take over the Xue family's family business. At that time, for the stability of the Xue family, When Xue Xunting dies, what can the eldest and third fangs do if they know about it?

However, as Xue Xunting was defeated and imprisoned, at the same time, although Pei Chao surrendered himself, he finally killed seven wanted criminals. Later retrial, and Chang Ronghuan, took off his black hat and was imprisoned for accepting bribes, because the other party was a fifth-rank magistrate, so he needed to report to Dali Temple.

As for Xue Xunting, in order to prevent people from Dingguo's mansion in the capital from coming to the rescue, he was executed three days later.

When the time comes to die, Luo Zhao really doesn't believe it. Now that Duke Ding is in danger, he really dares to confront him head-on.When Pei Chao was beaten by the general, he hadn't thought that one day, his Pei family's blood feud would really be avenged...

The tears in his eyes that he had been suppressing finally couldn't bear to drip down, and Chang Wenbai held his hand tightly, and there was a gratified but sad smile in his eyes.

Pei Chao lowered his head and wiped his face: "It's a good thing... I shouldn't cry, after I die... I'll have the face to see my sister, my parents... and those implicated..."

Chang Wenbai bit his lips so hard that he couldn't cry out the same way. With red eyes, he lowered his head and put his forehead against Pei Chao's: "Whether you live or die...you are my wife, Chang Wenbai...the only one." wife."

Pei Chao's body froze, and he didn't say a word for a long time. He raised his arm to cover his forehead, and said in a hoarse voice, "...I'm sorry."

After finishing speaking, he didn't dare to look at Chang Wenbo again, turned around, let the yamen servant put on the shackles, and left in a hurry.

Chang Wenbai waited until Pei Chao's figure could no longer be seen, then looked away, lifted the hem of his robe, knelt down and kowtowed three times to Chang Ronghuan, but he couldn't say a single word, only a thousand words were exhausted. In this kneeling.

Chang Ronghuan laughed with tears in his eyes, and patted him on the shoulder: "Son, I want to thank you for my father. You let me take off the shackles of 15 years. No matter what the result is, I am my father. Bear it, you are better than being a father... okay, take good care of your mother, as a father... I'm sorry!"

After finishing speaking, he rubbed his face hard, was shackled by the yamen servants, and walked away with his back straight and relaxed.

For a while, there was silence outside the hall. Looking at this scene, they couldn't say a word of criticism, but they still felt uncomfortable when they thought of a good person being imprisoned.

But Duan Jinsong, who was hidden among the common people, winked at the few people who had been bribed a long time ago. Those people nodded calmly, and suddenly ran in from outside the hall, walked a few steps quickly, and arrived at the open space outside the hall. , suddenly knelt down, and shouted loudly: "We, the little people, are willing to plead for Mr. Pei Chao Pei... I beg for the pardon of Mr. Pei Chao Pei's death penalty!"

Following the words of a few people, everyone seemed to wake up, and some with red eyes ran over, and then knelt down: "We are also willing to plead for Mr. Pei's life. , and surrendered himself, the person he killed was extremely heinous, and there were no innocent people, and the other party was out for revenge, and he hoped for extrajudicial kindness from your lord... just to save him from death!"

Another person came over: "Please save me from death!"

More and more people gathered around, begging for Pei Chao's life, and they knelt on the ground inside and outside the hall, even those who couldn't get in from the state office, also knelt down when they heard this...

All of a sudden, nearly ten thousand people in Ningzhou City pleaded for Pei Chao.

Luo Zhao did not expect to see this scene, looked at Duan Jinsong who was not far away, nodded clearly, and after asking again, he learned that the other party was really willing to write down a petition for ten thousand people. Even if the other party is exempted from the death penalty, the superiors have nothing to say.

Although Lu Mo Ning came up with the idea, seeing this scene, he couldn't help but feel his eyes warm up. Hearing the sound, he clenched his hands tightly, and he was even more determined to support Emperor Yunji's reascension to the throne.

Otherwise, decades later, the scene of people being displaced will make him even more unwilling to see the scene of people being displaced and the current blood boiling.

The palm was suddenly gripped tightly, and the opponent's big palm bit by bit opened his hand that was almost clenched with blood marks. Lu Mo Ning was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look, and happened to meet Zhao Tianji with a faint smile Eyes of satisfaction, voice low but gentle: "This is a good thing, don't blame yourself too much, none of this has anything to do with you."

Lu Mo Ning was in a daze for a moment, wondering if he was dazzled by the scorching sunlight behind the other party, he actually felt that the other party's whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light.

Zhao Tianji was stared at so directly by the other party, his heart moved, he suddenly moved closer, and lowered his voice to tease: "Why, I think you are so handsome that you want to marry me with your body?"

Lu Mo Ning's original emotion condensed in an instant, pulled his hand away, and said coldly: "I didn't see it, I only saw a sloppy guy. Where did you buy this bearded man? It's so ugly."

Zhao Tianji's smug eyes before throwing it out: "..."

He looked at Lu Mourning's leaving figure without hesitation, and turned his head to look at Duan Jinsong who was still excitedly wiping tears with his sleeve.

Duan Jinsong suddenly felt a sharp gaze sweeping towards him, followed his gaze, and his heart skipped a beat when Zhao Tianji's gloomy eyes looked at him: "..." Your Majesty, why is your Majesty looking at him like this?What did he do wrong?

Zhao Tianji moved his lips, only to find that there were too many beards blocking his beautiful lips, unable to show his image at all, his eyes became more resentful, Duan Jinsong trembled when he saw it, and silently blocked his eyes: I didn't see it No, he didn't see the emperor's gaze.

Lu Mo Ning went to meet Luo Zhao in person, and Luo Zhao learned about the other party from Duan Jinsong, and patted Lu Mo Ning on the shoulder: "Young people are awesome..."

Immediately, seeing Duan Jinsong walking in, he stood up suddenly, strode over, hugged Duan Jinsong's small body vigorously, patted Duan Jinsong's back, and almost vomited blood from Duan Jinsong.

"Hahahaha, you kid is finally willing to show up. I got your news. I ran out of six horses day and night without sleep, and finally let me arrive. How is it? I didn't embarrass you, did I? I didn't expect you This guy has been away from the officialdom for so long, and he still takes care of such things... Hahahaha..."

Luo Zhao's hearty and hearty smile came, and Lu Mo Ning watched the scene until they retreated quietly, fearing that they had something to say to reminisce.

It's just that Lu Mo Ning didn't go far, checking the clock, if He She turned back into a snake with a stick of incense, he would take him back.

On the other side, Duan Jinsong saw Lu Mo Ning go out, thought for a while, walked over, closed the door, raised his eyes, and looked at Luo Zhao who was still smiling. When he left the capital a few years ago, the other party Still full of black hair, but now their temples are graying, they are all old.

Luo Zhao's heart was moved by the other party's eyes, and he stared at him suspiciously: "You have not seen each other for many years, why do you suddenly see others like this? Looking at me like this..."

Just then, a sigh was heard.

The familiar voice seemed to penetrate years ago, and appeared in front of Luo Zhao little by little again, making him feel in a trance. At this moment, he was still living in the court when the late emperor was alive, laughing and angrily. Scolding, chatting freely...

With a stiff neck, he slowly turned his head, looked at the tall bearded man who had been standing in the corner and he didn't pay attention to it, and saw the man met his tiger eyes, familiar eyebrows and eyes, followed by the man's lower half. The beard on his face was exposed.

Luo Zhao's tiger eyes slowly opened like copper bells, and after a long time... suddenly lost control.

Lu Mo Ning was standing not far away, but suddenly he seemed to hear a loud cry. The rough and wanton man burst into tears like a child. Lu Mo Ning was startled when he heard it. He slowly turned his head and looked at the man at the end of the corridor. The room, staring at the sky in a daze, after a long while, still couldn't hold back and walked away step by step.

Sitting on a stone chair in an open space in the state government office, Hong Guangping came over at some point: "My lord."

Sang Pei also came back without a sound, and stood behind him without saying a word. "I'm fine, just a little emotional."

If he hadn't experienced this experience, if he hadn't met the black snake, he would never have thought that in his previous life, Zhao Di, who was incompetent but at least a benevolent monarch, turned out to be... an executioner who murdered brothers, usurped the throne, and murdered Zhongliang.

Lu Mo Ning has been sitting on the stone chair for an hour, but he has not seen Zhao Tianji come back, so he frowned, isn't this guy afraid that his snake body will be exposed?

On the other side, Luo Zhao finally calmed down, knelt on the ground with one knee, straightened: "Your Majesty... the old minister and others were blind and did not see the true face of the traitor. The other party inherits the great rule, the emperor punishes the old minister! The old minister and others... are too stupid!"

If he hadn't noticed something wrong in the past few years, he would have thought it was just that the other party had been in that position for a long time now, and his heart was big, but he never thought that from the very beginning... the other party's heart was too cruel, and he plotted against them.

Zhao Tianji helped Luo Zhao up: "I don't blame you, how can I be so stupid? I have kept a white-eyed wolf by my side for so many years, I am sorry for you... It is I who harmed Nie Zhonglang and the others..."

Luo Zhao shook his head: "Your Majesty, that traitor is too cunning, you are eager to protect your brother, how would you know that the other party has malicious intentions!"

Luo Zhao thought of something, wiped his face, and knelt down on one knee again with a bang: "Your majesty, since you are still alive, this old minister is willing to be the first one to rush into the capital for Ma Qianfeng and chop off the head of that dog thief to present the first prize to the emperor." Blood dripping! This Great Zhao’s country was brought down by your own hands, Your Majesty, and now it’s just another fight..."

Zhao Tianji was stunned for a moment, Lu Mo Ning's beautiful appearance flashed across his mind for the first time, and his mind moved: "I..."

Luo Zhao saw his hesitation: "Your Majesty, don't you still care about brotherhood?"

Zhao Tianji shook his head: "Naturally it's impossible. The traitor murdered me and framed loyal ministers. From the moment he did it, I didn't have such a wolf-hearted brother... It's just that Luo Qing's family may not know that my current body ...I'm afraid it's not right..."

Duan Jinsong, who also had tears in his eyes, nodded again and again: "You don't know, the emperor's body is not what it used to be, he will change every time he sticks of incense, unless it has been... eh?"

Suddenly remembered something, Duan Jinsong was taken aback, and stared at Zhao Tianji in a daze: "Your Majesty, how long has it been since Master Lu left?"

Why does he feel that a stick of incense has passed by now?

After being reminded by the other party, Zhao Tianji was stunned for a moment, and quickly glanced at the hourglass beside him, his heart skipped a beat, almost an hour had passed.

Duan Jinsong also followed Zhao Tianji's line of sight, and clapped his palms excitedly: "Your Majesty! Are you okay? Finally, as long as you are here, this country is not..."

Zhao Tianji's head was buzzing, but looking at the exuberant old ministers in front of him, as well as those murdered ministers, Zhao Tianji clenched his hands tightly: "I know...but all of this needs to be discussed in the long term. Duan Qing's family, Luo Qing Where is home?"

Duan Jinsong and Luo Zhao immediately knelt down, clasped their fists together, and said excitedly, "The minister is here!"

Zhao Tianji: "Duan Qing's family, with you as the center, started to inform me of the hidden threads buried in various places back then, bought food, grass, weapons and horses to be used, and gathered old officials; Luo Qing's family, Pei's case, quickly closed within ten days, Changronghuan will be handed over to Dali Temple for trial, and you will notify Pei Yushi to let you mediate for a while to save Changronghuan's life, and then contact the generals, and three months later... I will send troops to the border to destroy the traitors and rehabilitate him. Homecoming!"

Duan Jinsong and Luo Zhao: "Here! I would like to abide by the holy edict!"

Lu Mo Ning realized that an hour had passed, but he still couldn't hold back. He asked Hong Guangping and others to stay and went to the room.

As soon as they reached the end of the corridor, they saw Duan Jinsong and Luo Zhao walking out with joy and energy. When they saw Lu Mo Ning, they greeted him, "Master Lu is here to find... He She?"

Probably because the other party's name was a bit convoluted, and the two of them paused when they said it.

Lu Mo Ning didn't doubt it, he cupped his hands respectfully and said, "I don't know if he's in there?"

Duan Jinsong looked blank: "It's gone, he seems to have gone back a long time ago, Master Lu didn't see him?"

Thinking of something, Lu Mo Ning shook his head: "Not yet, the next official will look for it again, two adults, go slowly."

The two did not refuse, and left in a hurry with their heads down. They just didn't know if it was an illusion. When the other party walked to the corner of the corridor, they seemed to look back at him with strange eyes.

Facing Lu Mourning's gaze, he smiled, nodded, and then left quickly.

Lu Mo Ning stepped into the room, wondering where the other party had gone: "He She?"

He had just opened his mouth to call out a few times, when suddenly a figure leaped over, a black snake hung around his neck, and its pointed head rubbed against his collarbone.

The snake's body was slippery and cool, which made Lu Mo Ning extremely uncomfortable, so he grabbed the snake's tail and pulled it off: "How did you change back?"

The moment the man touched him, he changed back, but he still didn't let go: "I forgot the time for a while, and when it was about to change, I rushed out, but it had already changed, and it was not easy to get out, so I hid .”

Lu Mo Ning hummed, he was held tightly by Zhao Tianji's wrist, and shook him uncomfortably: "It has changed back, you can let go."

Zhao Tianji did not let go as obediently as in the past, but clenched it tighter and tighter.

Lu Mo Ning raised his head to make the other party loosen, but when he met Zhao Tianji's extremely deep phoenix eyes, he was stunned: "What's wrong with you?"

Could it be that meeting his former colleagues reminded him of his sadness?

His hand that had already landed on Zhao Tianji's wrist stopped for a moment, and was hugged by Zhao Tianji in the next moment. Lu Moning frowned and was about to push it away, but he heard Zhao Tianji's extreme pain coming from above his head. Hoarse voice: "A-Ning, if I leave...will you miss me?"

Lu Mo Ning paused, he didn't seem to have thought about it, and now he was in a daze when he heard what the other party said.

Speaking of which, they have been together for several months. He lowered his eyes and thought for a while: "It's the news from Emperor Yunji that they are going to do something? But haven't you fully transformed yet?"

Zhao Tianji: "I...for example, I haven't changed back yet."

Lu Mo Ning said: "Well, let's talk about it later."

Zhao Tianji seemed to chuckle lightly: "A-Ning... don't you also miss me? After all, if you don't have me, who will warm your bed in the future? Who will steal the list for you? Who will give you the saddle, right?"

Lu Mo Ning: "..." He really said he was panting, did he really pant?

Lu Mo Ning raised his foot and stepped on it expressionlessly.

Zhao Tianji let go of the other party in pain, Lu Mo Ning opened the door and walked out: "Stop talking nonsense, go back quickly."

Zhao Tianji was arrested, seeing his figure leaving in a hurry, he couldn't help but smile, a hard-mouthed little thing, when you know my identity in the future, you dare to kick me and step on me...

I really want to see his expression when the time comes, it must be fun.

It's just... Thinking of the upcoming parting, Zhao Tianji lowered his eyes, and his handsome appearance was tinged with sadness.

In the end... I still can't bear to part with it. I'm afraid that this war will not be resolved in a short time.

Although it has only been four years, the other party has weakened many of his old ministers and cultivated many of his confidants over the past four years. In addition, it is well known that Emperor Yunji died suddenly, and the other party only needs to say that he is pretending to be enough to make him There are many obstacles on his way back to the court.

If he was fearless before, but now...

Zhao Tianji looked at that figure, his heart was numb, and he didn't want to let go even half of it.

But the country hates the family feud, this hatred...he must avenge it.

When the great cause is accomplished again, and he returns to the court, he will definitely...will...

Zhao Tianji then shook his head and smiled wryly, but now he doesn't even dare to express his heart, when did he become so cowardly?

In the next ten days, Lu Mo Ning found that Zhao Tianji suddenly became very annoying, and he would follow him wherever he went. Although the snake was also annoying before, it is not like a sticky cake all the time The same, sticking to the body can not be torn off.

As soon as Hong Guangping saw it, he couldn't help joking and covered his eyes: Hey~ I didn't see it, my lord, you are throwing dog food every day, does this make your subordinates live?
