After being mistaken for a fellow by Long Aotian

Zhou Xun was escorted into the hall, and was pressed to kneel on the floor tiles.The floor tiles were hard and cold, facing his impending fate, he frowns coldly.

The place where he knelt is the study of the current Holy Majesty.Unlike Zhou Cai, who is well-known in the world, who is regarded as the most trusted person by the emperor, and who is allowed to come and go in and out of the imperial study at will, this is the first time for him to come to this place.

However, Zhou Cai was greeted by the emperor with a smile as the champion of the new department and the favorite minister of the emperor; he was escorted in by the guards on the ground as an assassin who assassinated the emperor.

A new top scholar comes out every three years, and he is the only one in this dynasty who dares to assassinate the emperor at a family banquet.

He is still relatively rare.

In his whole life, he has been humiliated and begged for the word "submissive" in order to protect himself under the hands of Brother Smiling Tiger, but in the end he was killed by him and fell into the abyss.But in the end, he finally beat him once before he died.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun actually wanted to laugh.The corners of his mouth twitched because of his inappropriate sense of humor, and the corners of his mouth brought a bruise on his face, which hurt a little.

Zhou Cai is Zhou Xun's half-brother, who became famous at a young age and is a veritable heartthrob.Everyone only sees him as gentle and elegant, and praises him for his legacy of a gentleman.But no one knows that when he was nine years old, just because his half-brother was one rank higher than him when he was a pair at the poetry meeting, he smiled in a secluded place and made the six-year-old The younger brother pushed into the cold lake water in late autumn.

Zhou Cai brushed off his clothes and sat back in the crowd.Although his concubine brother was lucky enough to swim back to the shore by himself, he was bedridden with a high fever for more than a month and almost lost his life several times.

That concubine brother is Zhou Xun himself who is kneeling here.

Perhaps because of God's pity, Zhou Xun's illness miraculously recovered.This time the falling into the water, together with the pain, was branded in his heart, and the words that his mother cried over and over while holding him when he was seriously ill:

'My mother doesn't want you to be very promising, my mother only wants you to grow up well.Let's be born to bow their heads... If you want to blame, blame your mother for giving you a bad life...'

At the age of six, he wiped away his mother's tears, and since then he quickly fell silent from a child prodigy, carefully maintaining his talent "below" that of his direct brother.The smiling tiger, Zhou Cai, is a Jiangzhou talent admired by everyone, and he is the shadow living behind him.

He could bear no amount of anger.He doesn't compete with Zhou Cai or compete with Zhou Cai. His only wish is to open another branch after he becomes an adult and take his mother out.

But God couldn't make him realize even this trivial wish.

The fifth prince is madly in love with Zhou Cai, and regards Zhou Cai as white moonlight.Zhou Cai is indifferent to him.The fifth prince was reluctant to break Zhou Cai's wings and make him bear the name of "male favorite".Zhou Cai was willing to coax his concubine to go to Beijing, and offered his concubine who looked similar to him to the prince to make him happy.

——The concubine brother is Zhou Xun.

The fifth prince treated him very politely at the beginning, and wished him good results in the examination.Zhou Xun knew nothing about Zhou Cai's calculations, and thanked him for taking him in. He has always been a person who knows how to repay, and is determined to repay him in the future.

Until the day before the test, the news of Zhou Cai's engagement with the daughter of the Ministry of Rites reached the palace.

That night, the fifth prince was very drunk.He pushed open the door and mistook Zhou Xun, who was reading through the lamp, for Zhou Cai, intending to do something wrong.After struggling fiercely, Zhou Xun fell into the lake and was miserable. The next day he had to support his sick body to take the exam.

He passed out in the examination room due to illness and failed.However, Zhou Cai got into the first class in this exam, and was named the number one scholar by the emperor. He was proud of his horseshoe and saw all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.

One is the champion, and the other is the loser.Then, the matter between Zhou Xun and the Fifth Prince was somehow exposed.Zhou's father pointed at Zhou Xun's nose and reprimanded him, intending to drive this unfilial son out of the house.In order to intercede for him, his mother kowtowed in the hall until her head was covered with bruises.

It was at this time that Zhou Cai, the number one scholar in the new division, stood up. He said that since it was done, it would be better to give the younger brother to the prince, which would be regarded as fulfilling him.

After that, Zhou Xun was sent to the palace... The fifth prince felt ashamed, and the Zhou family was promoted to Beijing.Zhou Cai entered the Hanlin Academy, and the lady from the Ministry of Rites married the Zhou family. The whole Zhou family was happy, except Zhou Xun...

He became the "thing" in "Seeing Things and Thinking about People".The fifth prince looked at his face, said Zhou Cai's name, and asked him to imitate Zhou Cai's dress, and let him be a puppet sitting in the palace with the appearance of Zhou Cai.He tried to escape several times, but was captured by the Fifth Prince.

He threw himself into the lake several times and hanged himself several times.God gave his fate a desperate comment, but it always allowed him to survive by luck.After hanging himself for the fifth time, he sat on the bed, stroked the bruise on his neck, looked at the fresh snow outside the window, and suddenly made up his mind.

He wants revenge.

He pretended to be docile, and took him to the eve palace banquet in the name of missing his elder brother.In the eyes of the Fifth Prince, Zhou Cai is so good, how could anyone not like him?Even Zhou Xun, who was his substitute, would miss his gentle and amiable brother, which is nothing more than normal.

Zhou Xun met Zhou Cai at the palace banquet. He stood beside the emperor, laughing at Yan Yan.The emperor also smiled at him, treating him quite kindly.Zhou Cai is now a big celebrity by the emperor's side, but he has nothing but to be his substitute and has nowhere to go.This scene made him feel the absurdity of life more and more, and it also made him calmer.

The fifth prince raised his glass and looked at them with a sad expression.He took this opportunity to make a request for a serious name.

The Fifth Prince would certainly think that Zhou Xun was unworthy.But Zhou Xun didn't care, he just said: "Otherwise my kind brother will be sad for me, you don't want to make him sad, do you?"

Zhou Xun's road to revenge took a step further.With a smile on his face, he said in his heart:

'Look, as long as you act in the name of Zhou Cai, everything can be so easy, isn't it? '

Later, the fifth prince took him to the palace banquet again, probably thinking that he finally stopped making trouble, and even his usual attitude towards him became better.

In return for this "kindness", Zhou Xun assassinated the emperor at the palace banquet in front of everyone.

Assassinating the emperor is a serious crime for the Jiu Clan, and no one understands this better than Zhou Xun, who is soaked in pain.

——How can a mayfly shake a big tree?

——Of course it was struck by lightning!

For the crime of regicide, he will take the five princes' mansion, the Zhou family, and everyone who destroyed his destiny and dignity with him...

To hell with him!

Zhou Xun failed, but his goal of assassinating the emperor had been achieved.When he was dragged out of the palace, he had blood in his mouth and his face was expressionless.

This is a ridiculous and ridiculous life. If his life comes from a story book, he must be the miserable cannon fodder with a hideous face.The good news is that he doesn't regret his deadly behavior.

The Jiang guards quickly investigated the real reason for his assassination of the emperor-although the reason was so absurd that it was confusing.How could anyone assassinate the emperor in order to get himself punished by the nine clans?I dare not write like that in the scriptures these days.

It stands to reason that this matter should be concluded on this basis.Those who deserve to be killed are killed, and those who deserve to be punished are punished.However, before the guards handed over the case file, the emperor who had just woken up from a coma passed the words: let someone bring the assassin, and he will interrogate himself.

Along the way, Zhou Xun closed his ears and listened, but some words inevitably drifted into his ears.Before he was escorted into the imperial study, he heard a little court lady secretly say that after the assassinated emperor woke up, his words changed slightly.However, the emperor's temperament was eccentric, and he often did some amazing things, which was nothing.

The emperor has always been moody, sometimes even a little tyrannical.In his hands, Zhou Xun's fate can be imagined.However, Zhou Xun is already dying, and he has finally achieved his goal of delaying Zhou Cai, so he has no curiosity about it.

When Zhou Xun was escorted in, he heard the guards escorting him here whispering:

"This person's fate is miserable..."

"Even if the emperor prefers Zhou Cai again, this time he should..."

"The matter of Zhou Cai may still be variable, but this sinner, the emperor is afraid that he will be skinned alive!"

The whispers were blocked outside the door, Zhou Xun withdrew his thoughts from the memories, and he heard footsteps while kneeling on the ground.

He didn't look up, his eyelashes drooped, and he saw a pair of feet stop in front of his eyes.

This is the emperor.

... How would the emperor torture him?Zhou Xun thought indifferently, staring at the pattern on the floor, waiting quietly for him to speak.

The Emperor's voice sounded above his head.

"Yo, this is the assassin? Doesn't he look very strong?"

Zhou Xun:?

The emperor's voice didn't have the anger that everyone imagined, but it was more like... Curiosity?

"Don't make people bow their heads, let them look up at me." The emperor said.

Zhou Xun raised his head.

Sitting on the wooden chair was the emperor who was attacked by Zhou Xun.He fell into a coma for a while after the palace banquet, and only woke up a few days ago.The handsome man in a dragon robe looked at him.

Seeing him raise his head, the emperor seemed startled, and muttered something in a low voice.

Zhou Xun's hearing was far superior to that of ordinary people since he was a child, and he heard this sentence.

"Damn, more handsome than a movie star."

star?Movie?what is that?

Zhou Xun was a little confused.

... This emperor is not as rumored.

After a while, the emperor cleared his throat, and slapped the table with his palm: "You are a bit courageous. Assassination of the emperor is a crime, don't you know? The crime of punishing the nine clans is a serious crime? The fifth prince brought you here Palace banquet, why did you..."

The words "Five Princes" stung Zhou Xun's nerves again.

The tragedies of his life all came from them.

"Hehe," he sneered, "the prince and general are kind!"

The imperial study room fell silent for a while.The emperor blinked at his words.

The silence lasted for quite a while, the emperor organized his words, and asked him again: "Why did you assassinate me...Zhen?"

Why assassinate the emperor?

Zhou Xun recalled his life in the shadows.He has been silent all his life, and he has succumbed to others all his life, but he finally ended up like this.

Even if he didn't assassinate the emperor and accepted his own fate, he would just die silently while lingering on his last breath.

"...If you don't erupt in silence, you will perish in silence." He finally said.

emperor:……

The emperor was silent for a longer time than before, and Zhou Xun who fell into memory again was also silent.

The emperor said again: "Do you have anything else to say? For example, let me analyze your mental journey?"

The emperor asked this question strangely, Zhou Xun looked at him aloof, and smiled wryly for no reason.

"The sorrows and joys of human beings are not connected. Even if I show my sorrows and joys to the emperor, the emperor will only think that I am noisy." He said, "The emperor does not need to know the past of a sinner, just judge according to the law .”

emperor:…………

The emperor was silent again, and he said after a while: "Do you know the fate of assassinating the emperor?"

"Zuo is nothing but Zhu Jiu Clan, maybe there are others..." He smiled, "I have never been afraid to speculate on others with the greatest malice."

——Because everything he experienced in his life was malicious.

He smiled softly in his heart.

The emperor was silent again.

"Who taught you to assassinate me?" The emperor asked him, "How did you think..."

Zhou Xun smiled wryly: "Perhaps it was something that came to mind when I watched Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin."

emperor:……

"You, have you ever thought about the end of the assassination? Death is like a lamp going out..."

"I've heard a saying, it's good to change it here." Zhou Xun said. "Everything is not brought with birth, and is not taken with death. When a person dies, he will not take a cloud with him just by waving his sleeves."

The emperor's silence this time lasted for a long, long, long time.

"Back off." He suddenly said to the left and right Jiangwei.

"emperor!"

Jiang Wei was shocked.The emperor scratched his head as if irritated and excited, and rejected his proposal again.In the end, he walked up to Zhou Xun, pressed it to his ear, and whispered, "Odd changes and even remains the same?"

Zhou Xun:?

Zhou Xun looked at him inexplicably.

"Stop pretending, buddy." The emperor touched his nose, and said in a very low voice, "You also wear it, right? This is the two of us, fellow?"
