Twilight Cloud Returns

After the court was over, Yun Chuxiu and Chu Mohen walked in the imperial garden.

Chu Mohen said easily: "Yesterday, the Holy Majesty finally dealt with the Rong family. All the officials in the Rong family will be demoted to ordinary people; anyone with the Rong surname will never be hired as an official by the Great Zhou Dynasty. Zaifu Rong Ordinarily, he was imprisoned in the mansion in the circle of cutting jobs, and he could not get out until he died; Zhao Darong, the doctor of Guanglu Temple, was imprisoned in prison and allowed to perish by himself."

"Because of one person's misfortune, the whole family and even the whole world are affected by the Rong surname, Chu Tiankuo hates the Rong family..." Yun Chuxiu is not as relaxed as the little emperor uncle, on the contrary, he only feels a sense of desolation , Shu Er said, "The Queen Mother didn't plead for Rong's anymore?"

In the imperial garden, all the flowers have withered, but the golden chrysanthemum is in full bloom.The scent of flowers rushed towards the two of them, and Chu Mohen felt very relaxed and happy.

He finally waited until the moment when the flowers were all gone, and the corners of his lips curled slightly, answering the question of Zhihuancai, "If it wasn't for the Empress Dowager who came from the Rong family, I am afraid that Rong Pingju would have been decapitated long ago. I heard that the night before The Holy Majesty stayed in the Ningshou Palace until dawn before leaving, presumably this is the best result with the empress dowager's consent."

"The Empress Dowager did her best to keep her life alive."

At the end of the trip, the two parted ways.

Yun Chuxiu made a bow and said, "Little Emperor Uncle, if you know, go ahead and pay your respects to the Empress Dowager."

Chu Mohen nodded and said: "You have just returned to Beijing. According to the rule, you should go to Ningshou Palace, and this king will leave first."

Yun Chuxiu was walking on the long street, when he suddenly heard the noise in front of him.

"Hey! Isn't this our famous and beloved Zhong Gonggong!" Qing Bao gathered a group of eunuchs to block Wei Zhong'an's way, and said with a strange air.

Wei Zhongan lowered his head, the left side of his face was still red and swollen, it looked like he had just been slapped.Knowing the current situation, anyone could be humiliated, so he had to be patient, so he whispered cowardly: "Please, Mr. Qingbao, let me go, I'm busy cleaning the Jianzhang Palace."

Qing Bao winked, and the rest of the eunuchs immediately formed a human wall, no matter which direction Wei Zhongan went, he would be blocked back.

Qing Bao lifted Wei Zhongan's chin contemptuously with his long nailed hand, "Tsk tsk, look at this little face, which father-in-law was punished again?"

The little eunuch at the side answered, "It must be that little Zhongzi has done something wrong again, which made Eunuch Liang unhappy."

Wei Zhongan's hands shrunk into his sleeves gradually clenched into fists, suppressing his anger, and said in a low voice: "It's the little one who annoyed Eunuch Liang, so he deserves to be punished."

Qing Bao frowned but shook his head and said: "Eunuch Liang is always so soft-hearted, giving you a few slaps can cover up your mistakes. But Eunuch Liang usually treats me well, so how can I wait?"

"That's right, Eunuch Liang is too kind. If this little loyal son makes a mistake in front of the Holy One one day, Eunuch Liang will be the first one to join him. How can a few slaps solve it?"

"Eunuch Qingbao, I'm going to teach this little loyal son a good lesson for Eunuch Liang, so that he won't hurt us by doing something wrong..."

A few people talk to each other, just waiting for Qingbao to issue orders, to wantonly trample on the lost Wei Zhongan.

Qing Bao withdrew his hand and said, "Then why are you still standing still! Waiting for Eunuch Liang to come to teach you how to teach a slave?"

Almost in sync with the voice, the little eunuchs who had long been jealous of Wei Zhongan's embarrassment in front of their master rolled up their sleeves and punched and kicked him.

Eunuchs are vicious and vicious masters, they won't stop their fists without some blood.

Qing Bao was on the sidelines, watching all this leisurely, with an indescribable joy in his heart!

As long as he thought of himself nodding and bowing in front of such a dog like his grandson, he would feel ironic and disgusted.

Wei Zhongan was lying on the cold bluestone slab of the long street, tightly covering his chest, and he would beat and scold him without fighting back.

Until several mouthfuls of blood were vomited out of the mouth, those people were tired from beating him, and brought him in front of Qing Bao, flatteringly said: "Mr. Qing Bao, do you think this lesson is enough?"

Wei Zhongan's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, blood was still bubbling from his lips, Qing Bao was very satisfied, and when he was about to leave, he happened to catch a glimpse of the envelope accidentally exposed from Wei Zhongan's lapel.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Qing Bao immediately pulled the letter out of his chest, and said curiously, "Hey! Who wrote this letter to our loyal father-in-law?"

He tore it apart, read it carefully, and said, "It was Wei Guoan's letter. I hid the letter from the criminal minister privately. My father-in-law is tired of seeing the loyal father-in-law..."

Seeing the letter that his elder brother wrote to him when he was in Liangzhou was held by this kind of trash, the veins on Wei Zhongan's forehead suddenly popped up, and he roared angrily, "Give it back to me!"

Qingbao never expected that Wei Zhongan would care so much about these letters, and this really caught his fancy.Wouldn't it be refreshing to destroy what he cared about the most?

Qing Bao knelt down, waved the letter in front of his bloodshot eyes, and said sarcastically, "Want it? Then it depends on whether you have the ability to get it..."

Qing Bao stood up, making a gesture to tear up the letter.Wei Zhongan jumped into a rage, and without knowing where he got the strength, he broke free from the restraints of several eunuchs, and rushed towards Qingbao like a mad dog.

Qing Bao had never seen him like this before, he backed away in fright, the palace hat was startled to the ground, and stammered: "You... are you all dead people! Hurry up and catch him!"

The little eunuchs rushed forward, two of them grabbed his arms, one strangled the back of his neck, and restrained Wei Zhongan again.

Wei Zhongan's eyes were shattered, he gritted his teeth and said, "Give me back the letter!"

Qingbao got up from the ground, straightened the palace hat, and became extremely angry, "You must believe it, I will let you know today that in this palace, you are a dog that everyone can trample on and wantonly abuse! This letter , I want you not to get it!"

With a crisp tearing sound, the letter was split into two by him.

"Don't!" Wei Zhongan howled like a desperate beast, watching the only relic left by his brother being destroyed like this...

Seeing others in pain, Qing Bao felt extremely comfortable!He patted his face with the letter that had been divided into two halves, and gloated: "Little loyal son, you still think of yourself as a loyal father-in-law! Your elder brother, Wei Guoan, is a criminal who was ordered to be beheaded by the Holy Majesty himself." , Young Master Yun, who has made great achievements, beheaded him for the supervisor. It is the Holy Majesty’s kindness to allow this dog like you to linger in the palace."

"To be a dog, you have to look like a dog. Come on, learn how to bark like a dog, and let my father-in-law listen."

Qing Bao's face of worshiping high and stepping low is really disgusting. Wei Zhongan spat out the blood in his mouth and said hoarsely: "Qing Bao, when I was so beautiful, I treated you well, and never bossed you around."

"Yes, Eunuch Zhong is really good to Qing Bao. So now, Eunuch Zhong doesn't regret being so kind to Qing Bao?" Qing Bao sneered, "What my eunuch wants is not your kindness, but you. scenery."

Like teasing a dog, he flicked his tongue a few times, "Hurry up and bark, don't make us all wait!"

The rest of the people echoed: "Hurry up!"

Wei Zhongan stared at Qingbao, his lips were tightly drawn, and he didn't say a word.Even a slave can't come here without dignity!

A eunuch said: "Hey, this is still a boring dog!"

He kicked Wei Zhongan from behind and said insulting words, "I heard that dogs that don't bark are the best at biting people. Why don't you bite the palace wall and let Mr. Qingbao see how sharp the dog's teeth are." !"

Seeing that he was harder than the stones in the latrine, Qingbao's patience was gradually exhausted, and he said sinisterly: "I think you think the letter is not shredded enough!"

He made a gesture to continue tearing, but Wei Zhongan said anxiously: "My name is!"

Qing Bao squinted at him, showing a look of impatience, "Then hurry up, my father-in-law can't do things with his brain."

Wei Zhongan lay on the ground, put his hands together on the ground, extremely humble, "Wow... woof..."

I don't know who said something, "I can't hear you..."

Qing Bao said: "No one else heard it, so how can this be a dog?"

Wei Zhongan closed his eyes, took a deep breath of air, and all he could think of was the last appearance of his brother in Yangzhou Prison that night.

He wants to live well, fulfill his brother's last wish, and protect the people he cherishes for his brother.

Wei Zhongan swallowed the bitterness in his heart, raised his volume, and spoke again, a mournful voice resounded over the long street: "Woof! Woah!"

"Children can be taught!" Qing Bao was very satisfied, and clapped his hands, "Two more!"

"Wow! Wow! Wow..."

The continuous barking of dogs intertwined with the group of people's laughter, reaching the ears of all the servants and maids walking on the long street.

No one stepped forward to help him, one was Qing Bao, the chief eunuch Liang Deying, who was disgraceful, and the other was the little loyal son whose elder brother was a criminal minister, without even thinking about it, he knew which one should be flattered by them Master.

Choosing to ignore is already the only kindness and kindness left in their hearts.

Qing Bao patted his head, mockingly said: "This dog is really obedient."

Having had enough of his addiction, Qingbao finally let him go, "Alright, let's not delay Eunuch Zhong's work, the emperor will blame the Jianzhang Palace for not cleaning well."

The people surrounding him then left, Wei Zhongan felt relieved.

He was just about to open his mouth to return those damaged letters, and planned to go back to the verandah at night to fight, but he could still keep them.

At this time, a court lady happened to pass by holding a brazier with a faint flame dancing, and Qing Bao threw the letter into it without any hassle.

The flame has fuel, and it instantly becomes a heart fire that can destroy all thoughts.

Almost instantly, Wei Zhongan bumped into him, pushed Qingbao to the ground, and said hysterically, "My letter!"

The sudden change startled the maid holding the brazier, and the brazier slipped from her hand to the ground. Wei Zhongan immediately knelt on the ground, groping in the scalding heat with his bare hands, and took out the letter that was about to be reduced to ashes.

Qing Bao never expected that the mad dog would bite back at the end, so he ran up angrily, waved his palm, and slapped his swollen left cheek hard!The long nails scraped across it, leaving a deep bloodstain...

Qing Bao was furious, pointing at Wei Zhongan's hand so that he was trembling with anger, "Slap this eunuch to death!"

"Who dares!"

Just as the eunuchs were about to make a move, a sharp voice stopped.

Yun Chuxiu's eyes were filled with anger, she raised her feather fan to reveal a dagger, leaving a bloodstain on Qing Bao's face.

Qing Bao was trembling all over, not daring to argue, knelt on the ground and stuttered, "Little... little grandpa..."

Yun Chuxiu wanted to punish these snobbish servants, but she turned her head to look at Wei Zhongan, who was ashamed, fearing that he would have bad thoughts, so she had to take advantage of these snobby servants, and scolded: Get out of here!"

Seeing that the young man let him go, Qing Bao hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, and crawled all the way out of the young man's sight.

Yun Chuxiu helped up Wei Zhongan, who was already expressionless, and said with concern: "Do you need to send a doctor to look at the burn on your hand?"

Wei Zhong'an saluted dully, "Thank you, my lord, I don't need this slave anymore... I still have to go to Jianzhang Palace to clean up, so I'll take my leave first..."

He is like a villain in a shadow puppet show supported by bamboo sticks, holding a letter with only a corner of it burnt, and heading towards Jianzhang Palace lifelessly...

On that corner is written - may my brother have more than every year and be safe every year.

Wei Zhongan clearly remembered that when the end of the new year was approaching, his brother sent a courier from Liangzhou to send it urgently, just to deliver the blessings before the year.

But now, all he has left is this blessing...

As Wei Zhongan walked, the pain from the scorching fingertips was delayed to spread to his heart. It's just that the heart full of holes can't keep the pain, nor can it keep the love...
