My country, you can pinch it

Chapter 48 Questioning

On the second day, Liu Ke knelt under the steps of Dacheng Palace, resisting the urge to yawn, listening to the roar of the emperor on His Majesty Dan.

Obviously, not only the courtiers were impeached yesterday, but the imperial concubine also filed a complaint. Her "broken" heart was fed into a dog, and she was so angry that she was bedridden. Even the palace affairs were handled by the fourth concubine. The ambergris baptism lasts extraordinarily long.

"I still expect you to repent, but I didn't expect you to get worse and make the whole world laugh. Liu Ke, I can't tolerate you anymore."

As soon as this remark came out, Liu Ke suddenly lifted his spirits and came.

He raised his head with a sneer: "That will demote me far away, and it's best not to call me back for the rest of my life!"

"Bastard!" Unexpectedly, Liu Ke couldn't help not being afraid, but provocatively provocative. Emperor Shun's chest was so angry that he picked up the teacup at hand and raised it.

"Smash, hit me on the head, make sure you don't miss it, anyway, I think I'm an eyesore, smash it to death!"

"Nizi!" Without hesitation, Emperor Shun raised the teacup high and was about to smash it down. However, when he saw Liu Ke's face clearly, he was shocked to find that his son was already in tears.

No matter what kind of punishment, Liu Ke didn't shed a single tear even though he was beaten to pieces and couldn't get up in bed for three days.

But now he was crying, the fragility of someone's face at that moment made Emperor Shun unable to do anything anymore.

After a brief silence, he slowly put down the teacup.

"Smash it, why don't you smash it?" Liu Ke raised his hand and wiped his face fiercely and asked.

Emperor Shun took two steps while supporting the table, and finally asked sadly: "Ke'er, what is your dissatisfaction with me? Why do you have to make such a fuss and stay in Beijing peacefully, isn't it good to be a decent prince? "

"Dissatisfied?" Liu Ke chuckled, "I'm so dissatisfied! Since I'm going to be demoted, I'll dare to ask, my mother is really the kind of shameless flirting with others that others say Is it a woman?"

This question made Emperor Shun's whole body stiff in an instant. He looked around subconsciously, only Qin Hai, who was like a sculpture, was standing not far away. People are sent far away, but I am firmly at the door.

The Dacheng Hall became quieter, and the needle could be heard, except for Liu Ke's uncontrollable angry breathing.

After a long time, Emperor Shun asked, "What do you know?"

Liu Ke sneered: "That's too much."

"What do you know!" Emperor Shun ignored his sarcasm, asked louder, and shouted angrily, "Say!"

Liu Ke didn't dodge his eyes, and straightened his back, "Is it necessary for me to say that? She was framed back then, and she was killed together with the unlucky guy who couldn't get married and was going to grow old alone, but the culprit is now Just sit in her place, step on her bones, and wait for the mother to honor the world, and everyone will admire her!"

He knelt upright, like an unyielding Shochiku, and said ridiculously: "You still have to ask me why I have to make such a fuss, who can swallow this breath for so many years, and then let her arrange for me to have an ulterior motive." woman?"

The one who disgusted Liu Ke like this was the mother and son!Whoever sent his obituary is the forces behind King Jing!

Emperor Shun was in shock, staring blankly at this son, as if seeing him for the first time, he couldn't help muttering: "How did you know that?"

"If you want people not to know, unless you do nothing, I know this sentence even if I am ignorant."

Emperor Shun was speechless immediately.

Now that the father and son were confronting each other, Liu Ke didn't need to worry about anything. He looked at Emperor Shun and asked sadly: "Since you know, why can you just watch my mother be wronged and put her in the cold palace, and be convicted of this crime? If so Pet, shouldn't you give her justice? Father, tell me why?"

The last three words contained too much meaning, all the anger that Liu Ke wanted to ask but couldn't ask was all in it.

At this moment, there is nothing that can't look directly at Tianyan, he just stared at Emperor Shun, looking into the other's eyes.He really wanted to know how this person would fabricate the next lie, and give an explanation that could not only convince him, but also extract his own sins from it!

"I..." Emperor Shun closed his eyes and shook his head slowly, "I don't know."

"You are the king of a country..."

"But I am also deceived sometimes!" Emperor Shun retorted loudly, his eyes were red and his face was painful, as if he didn't dare to recall, he said, "What do you know! It's because I love her so much that I can't listen to an explanation. She is Concubine, the empress died young, she is the lord of the harem, who can frame her? How can you make me believe her words by arresting her in bed under the eyes of everyone?"

Emperor Shun thought of that rainy night, and his whole body was in a gloomy state. Regret and self-blame brewed an inexplicable resentment, which crawled deeply on his face, making his expression gloomy and ferocious. As if on the verge of rage.

But Liu Ke knew that what he regretted the most wasn't that he left his mother in the cold palace indiscriminately, but that he couldn't restrain the evil thoughts in his heart and stretched out his hand to the wronged person.

However, now is not the time to reveal everything. Liu Ke let out a deep breath and calmed himself down, "Since you still found out later, why didn't you want to avenge her and bring the villain to justice? Just let me You were born with stains all over your body, and you were ridiculed by the world?"

"It will be many years after I know that all the evidence has disappeared, how can I go back? If there is a big fight, everyone inside and outside the palace will be in danger, and the harem will be unstable..." Emperor Shun shook his head, "What's more , she still has Lang'er, and she is teaching you again."

Liu Ke shouted: "Then have you ever thought about my feelings?"

Emperor Shun walked down the steps slowly, reached in front of Liu Ke, helped him up himself, and said with great pain: "Ke'er, I can only feel sorry for you."

In a word, everything is covered up, and the matter is at peace.

Liu Ke clenched his fists.

Emperor Shun said: "Since you know all about it, I understand your difficulties these years and feel guilty for you, so I won't pursue that absurd thing any more. I will stay in the capital and let me make up for you."

"compensate?"

Emperor Shun nodded: "It's time to become a king. From now on, you will have whatever your two brothers have. I will cultivate it well."

However, Liu Ke snorted: "Rare?"

"Then what do you want?"

"Rehabilitate my mother."

"Ke'er! It's been too long, and I understand her grievances in my heart."

"But the world doesn't understand, everyone is still insulting her!" Liu Ke said excitedly, "She lies in the coffin in disgrace."

"But you can't force me like this!" Emperor Shun looked at him with majestic eyes, with no doubt.

Liu Ke supported him on his arm, and Emperor Shun took his hand away, "Then demote me."

"Ke'er, don't be angry."

Liu Ke said firmly: "This is what a son of man should do. As soon as my mother can recover, I will return to Beijing."

The father and son looked at each other, Liu Ke refused to give an inch, Emperor Shun let out a deep breath, paced in the hall, seemed to be thinking, and finally sighed: "Does it have to be like this?"

"Yes." Liu Ke lowered his eyes and didn't let himself show a sneer. He knew that Emperor Shun would definitely agree. This person wished to let him stay away, so as not to find something deeper, but the reluctance now is just this person's fault Hypocrisy.

Sure enough, Emperor Shun asked after some hesitation: "Where do you want to seal?"

Liu Ke didn't give a shit: "Yongliang."

Emperor Shun laughed and said: "You still say you are not angry, Yong Liang? No matter how angry I am, I will not let my son go to the border to suffer."

Only exiled prisoners and daring caravans would go to the northwest border, Emperor Shun disagreed.

However, Liu Ke knelt down without saying a word.

Emperor Shun was surprised and frowned: "What are you doing?"

"My son, please give me permission from my father."

"You..." Emperor Shun raised his hand, as if annoyed at Liu Ke's stubbornness.

"Please give me your permission!" Liu Ke said loudly.

Emperor Shun looked at his stubborn appearance, hesitated for a long time, finally sighed deeply, and put down his hand, "Think about it carefully."

Liu Ke twitched the corners of his mouth: "I've made up my mind to go, even if I eat sand and drink wind, it's better than messing up the confrontation between the two elder brothers' New Deal."

As soon as this remark came out, Emperor Shun's heart paused, and he couldn't help looking at Liu Ke with surprised eyes.

And Liu Ke also raised his head, and sneered, "Everyone is playing the banner of the common people, but ask yourself, who is really for them? It's just that group of idiots who have been beaten to death, thinking they can be redeemed."

Before today, Emperor Shun had never observed this son carefully, nor had he had any expectations for him, but today he changed his view.

"Ke Er..."

"This messy capital city, I will not accompany you, and my son will leave."

Liu Ke walked out of Dacheng Palace, facing the fluttering snowflakes, curled his lips.

He didn't look back, still put on a cynical face, stepped on a carefree pace, and walked into the snow nonchalantly, leaving a string of footprints in the white snow.

He saw the palace servants shoveling snow beside him, he beckoned, he tucked the hem of his robe on his trouser belt, took the shovel and shoveled out large and small circles on the ground, and pieced together a giant bastard in boredom, facing the sky , lying on the ground, laughing at the fact that everyone in the world is an idiot.

As usual, every time the Seventh Prince enters the palace, he will receive a training, and he will go crazy when he comes out. He is like a mad dog, he will never learn to behave because of being beaten, but will become even more insane.

Seeing this, all the palace people hiding in the corner went back to report to their master.

Qin Hai looked at Emperor Shun who was standing in front of the gate of Dacheng Palace, followed his line of sight to see Liu Ke who was going crazy in the snow, and couldn't help slowing down, calling softly: "Your Majesty, His Highness Seventh..."

"You said that he doesn't care about him, and he doesn't know who he looks like."

Qin Hai responded with a smile: "That's right."

"Qin Hai, did you clean up the tail at that time?"

Qin Hai was stunned, and quickly said: "Ah, Your Majesty, it's still up to you to say, the slave would rather kill by mistake than spare anyone!"

"Really, then why did Lao Qi insist that Luoying Palace framed him?"

Qin Hai opened his eyes, "This, could it be that His Highness the Seventh Prince already knew..."

"He doesn't know, at least, not quite."

Qin Hai's heart suddenly relaxed, and his eyes rolled, "That should be... there must be an omission in the imperial concubine."

Emperor Shun nodded, "I think so too. It's been 20 years, and she's living longer and more, and she doesn't know how to write cautiously because of that little secret. Now that Lao Qi knows the truth back then, what do you think of her?" manage!"

"His Royal Highness is planning to..."

Emperor Shun said: "He wants me to vindicate Wang Bin, otherwise I will go to the northwest and never return to Beijing."

Qing Hai was surprised: "Isn't the Seventh Highness embarrassing the emperor?"

"Embarrassed?" Emperor Shun smiled, with a vague light on his vain face, "Why am I embarrassing?"

Qin Hai was taken aback, and suddenly realized, "Yes, the culprit is the imperial concubine, the emperor is also very guilty, and His Royal Highness can only target the imperial concubine and King Jing."

"After so many years of doting, their mother and son are too complacent. Don't you think that if I don't say anything, they will suppress Yang Shenxing and prevent the New Deal?" Emperor Shun sneered, "One Wang family came, and another Wang family came. Cancer, my country will be destroyed by their hands sooner or later!"

At this moment, a gust of cold wind blowing in with snowflakes made his throat feel dry and itchy, making him cough one after another. It wasn't intense, but he couldn't stop, it sounded grueling.

Qin Hai persuaded: "Your Majesty... the servant helped you into the palace, it's really too cold outside."

Emperor Shun nodded, his pale and vain face was stained red due to coughing, he turned his head and looked at Liu Ke who was still mad in the snow despite the heavy snow, thought of what he said before, passed his hand over, and said, "Qin Hai, Lao Qi chose the fief of Yongliang."

"This, that is not a good place, His Royal Highness is too angry."

Emperor Shun said with a smile: "Angry? No, he has thought it through carefully, and his ambition is not small."

"Ah, but Yongliang is in a mess." Qin Hai was puzzled. He bent down and helped Emperor Shun go inside, but the latter didn't explain to him, but laughed softly, "So what? Since he Choosing that place means that you have this ability, it really impresses me, and it happens to wind up the clocks for noble concubines and the others."

"The emperor is far-sighted, and the servant admires it."

Emperor Shun stopped talking, walked into the hall, and suddenly asked: "Where is Xiao Yuan? Why is there no one?"

Qin Hai quickly replied: "This kid, he didn't release the paper even after entering the palace. He is like a bookworm. If he doesn't pay attention, he will go to the palace to read a book. He doesn't know how to serve the emperor."

Not only did Emperor Shun not get angry when he heard this, but he showed a secret and strange smile, "Hehe, let him read if you want to read, otherwise the sameness will be boring, so it's more similar."

Liu Ke didn't hide this decision from the mute, and explained everything in Dacheng Hall in detail.

The mute listened for a long time without making a sound, and his thoughts seemed to return to that dark rainy night.

The high-spirited Zhuangyuan Lang was just at the time when he was full of enthusiasm to display his ambitions, but a late-night call ruined everything about him, and he fell into a never-ending nightmare...

He opened his only eye, accepted the light of day, let himself return to reality from the trance, finally looked at Liu Ke and said: "But your move is too dangerous, if he finds out the clue, he will be his own flesh and blood , he will not be merciful."

Seeing that he was not entangled with the fiefdom of Yongliang, Liu Ke breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hands nonchalantly and said, "That's not true, uncle, I'm not boasting. I'm surprised at what I've done today. The grief, pain, unwillingness, resentment , and the silent tears streaming down my face at the critical moment, it's absolutely amazing! I'm extremely realistic even when I bow my head and he can't see it, it's absolutely impossible to reveal my secrets."

The dumb man couldn't help laughing when he heard the man's self-praise, and the pain that was surging was slowly suppressed by Liu Ke's jokes.

Seeing this, Liu Ke raised her lips, and continued: "I made up my mind when I went to Dacheng Palace. I only revealed half of it, and pointed the finger directly at Luoying Palace. I know too well how much the imperial concubine and Liu Lang have been doing these years. Zhang Yang will definitely make him feel dissatisfied, of course, besides being guilty of me, he must be more concerned about it."

He thought of Emperor Shun's reluctance today, and a sarcasm curled his lips, "Uncle, it's fine to leave Beijing, but I can't just leave without leaving anything, otherwise I won't be When will I be able to rehabilitate you?"

"This road is hard," said the mute.

Liu Ke replied: "But I believe I can do it."

Liu Ke squatted down in front of the mute, looking at the face full of scars and wrinkles, and the other eye that couldn't be opened, this face was daunting for children.

"This is what the Liu family owes you, and what the Wang family owes you, and I shed the blood of these two families. What else can I do except atone for my crime?"

The dumb's last eye was red and cloudy.

One is revenge, and the other is this lonely child.Fortunately, although Liu Ke was bleeding from that man, he was not infected with that man's heart.

He turned his face away, forced back his tears, then solemnly said in a deep voice, "Yongliang is a place with harsh weather and complex personnel, but it is also the place where the Dashun Army is located. There are countless spies from various countries, and because of the caravan Wandering, the news is delivered faster than any other place. The suffering is a little bit bitter, but His Highness chose this place, I can only say-wonderful."

Although this was just an idea that Liu Ke thought of on the spur of the moment, he still couldn't help but show his complacency, "I thought you would blame me for taking my own way and not taking grandpa seriously."

The dumb man laughed hoarsely, "Your Majesty, the most taboo thing is blind obedience, and the most precious thing is independent judgment."

The corner of Liu Ke's mouth curled up, thinking that a scholar, the words he said were pleasant.Including that rabbit, he finds it particularly pleasing to the eye when it comes to talking about people and doing things about people.

He suddenly thought of the bowl of dumplings last night, it was so warm and heartwarming, he almost wanted to stay there, and didn't want to leave.

And that copper coin... He subconsciously touched his purse and raised the corner of his mouth.

Speaking of which, it's time to tell the rabbit when things are done, right?

When he was thinking this way, Xiaotuanzi walked in and said, "Your Highness, the young master has sent the bird back, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Bird?" What bird?

Seeing Liu Ke's puzzled expression, Xiaotuanzi said dumbfoundedly, "Your Highness, it's the Pulsatilla you kept with Young Master!"

Oh, remembered.

But soon, Liu Ke wondered: "What does he mean by sending the bird back? Are you going to ignore me from now on?"

"Why don't you read this letter first."

Liu Ke took the envelope and found that it was heavy, and was very surprised: "It's so thick, does this rabbit have so many things to write?"

While talking, he quickly opened the letter, took out the paper inside and looked at it, he was stunned, and then laughed loudly: "You are a talent! You really deserve to be a skinny rabbit, so ruthless!"

"Your Highness?"

"Come on, get these two lists and find someone to copy them neatly for you. I'll go get them myself when the time comes."
