As he spoke, Mao Xiang changed his tone and asked coldly: "Or are you saying that your Majesty doesn't take your Majesty's oral instructions seriously and wants to disobey him?"
I bought a watch last year.
Han Du looked at Mao Xiang fiercely. If looks could kill, Mao Xiang would be riddled with holes now.
Unfortunately, Mao Xiang was much calmer than Han Du. He simply ignored Han Du's expression of wanting to eat people and acted calmly.
Originally, Mao Xiang had a grudge against the emperor's order for Han Du to come with him. After all, torture is his strong point. What is Han Du, a frail scholar doing? Come and take credit from him?
But now Mao Xiang was filled with gratitude to the emperor. The emperor had such a clever plan. If Han Du hadn't come, let alone whether Mao Xiang could have forced the female officer to this point, even if he found out about the female officer giving birth, it would not be a merit but a fault for him. If he were not careful, he would be dead. .
Now that Han Du is in front, Mao Xiang is much more relaxed. Even if the sky falls, Han Du will be there to hold him up and it won't hit him on the head.
Han Du now felt deeply that he had not read the almanac when he went out today. Otherwise, how could he have encountered such a terrible thing?
If you want to hide, you are disobeying the order and will be beheaded.
Don't hide, just bite the bullet? Han Du didn't realize that his scalp was stronger than Lao Zhu's steel knife.
This bad luck is simply unavoidable and completely unavoidable.
Forget it, life or death, you have to give it a try.
Han Du felt furious.
Mao Xiang sat on the main seat with a leisurely look on his face, without any intention of urging Han Du to make a decision. It seemed that no matter how long Han Du remained silent, he would continue to wait like this.
Han Du glared at Mao Xiang angrily, took a deep breath, and then said feebly: "I, I'd better go to the East Palace first. As for..." As for what, Han Du didn't say anything. , just shook his head.
When Mao Xiang saw that Han Du finally spoke up, his face suddenly became overjoyed, and he quickly complimented and said, "You can go wherever you want. I will definitely make arrangements for you."
After speaking, he raised his head and ordered: "Tong Ping, hurry up and prepare a carriage for Mr. Han. You can personally take Mr. Han to the East Palace."
When Han Du stood up, his body couldn't help shaking, and he followed Tong Ping helplessly.
When Han Du left, the smile on Mao Xiang's face quickly disappeared, and a cold and cold aura appeared on his face. Holding the tea cup in his left hand, holding the tea lid in his right hand, he gently and unhurriedly rubbed the tea cup. The sound of the ceramic rubbing against each other was clearly audible in this room where you could hear the drop of a needle.
After a long time, Mao Xiang asked softly: "Do you want to die or live?"
"This subordinate is loyal to you, please forgive me..."
Everyone immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Who can not want to live? The ants are still greedy for life. Of course, the female officer is excluded. She just wants to die now.
Mao Xiang laughed and continued to ask: "You all want to live?"
"Please forgive me, sir..."
Everyone said in unison.
Mao Xiang suddenly threw the tea cup in his hand, and the sound of crackling and breaking could be heard continuously. Mao Xiang shouted: "If you want to survive, I will shut your mouths tightly. If one person reveals the truth, he will be executed. Do you hear that?"
"I would like to thank you for not killing me..."
After hearing his subordinate's words, Mao Xiang nodded with satisfaction and sat down slowly. Although Mao Xiang personally promised his subordinates, whether these people can survive still depends on the situation on Han Du's side. If the problem is not big, then they can survive, but if the problem is really serious, then Mao Xiang cannot save himself, so how can he still have the energy to save the lives of others like them? Damn it, still die.
Is Mao Xiang just doing useless work? In fact, this is not the case. What he did was a hugely profitable business.
If these people can live in the future, then after today's scene, they will naturally be grateful to Mao Xiang. He didn't even give a single hair, but he gained so many people working for him in vain.
And if they die, then Mao Xiang naturally has nothing to say. Once a person dies, everything will end, but Mao Xiang will not suffer, after all, he has not paid anything.
Han Du came to the East Palace, got off the carriage, and saw the plaque on the East Palace. He felt that his legs were as heavy as lead.
I don't want to go in, but unfortunately I can't help Han Du.
Not long after Han Du got out of the carriage, he was passed in. When he heard that Han Du was coming, Lao Zhu thought that the female officer had confessed, so he couldn't wait to summon Han Du.
As soon as Han Du came in, Lao Zhu couldn't wait to ask: "Tell me, who dared to murder my grandson."
Zhu Xiongying's death really made Lao Zhu heartbroken.
Lao Zhu has experienced too many relatives leaving him. His parents were starved to death, his second brother was starved to death, and his sister also died and disappeared.
Therefore, Lao Zhu has always attached great importance to his relatives. His son did what he hated the most and oppressed the people, and he just punished him severely. If it had been an official or a distinguished person, he would have been killed long ago.
Therefore, Zhu Xiongying's death was a huge blow to Lao Zhu, who couldn't wait to avenge his eldest grandson.
Han Du was in a low mood. He bowed to Lao Zhu and said, "Your Majesty, Han Du, pays homage to you. Please step aside."
Lao Zhu was stunned. He didn't expect that Han Du didn't tell him the news immediately, but asked everyone else to go out. However, Lao Zhu understood that since Han Du said this, he must have a reason. He waved his hand and signaled the people on both sides to go out.
When everyone on both sides went out, Han Du saw the old eunuch still standing behind Lao Zhu, so he looked at the old eunuch silently. After all, if one less person knows about such a thing, Han Du will be less dangerous. Therefore, Han Du only wanted to tell Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao, and no one else, not even the old eunuch, could know.
The old eunuch was surprised when he saw Han Du's expression, but he knew that he was in a place like this and the more he knew, the faster he would die. Not only did he not care about Han Du, but he was even more grateful to Han Du.
Before Lao Zhu could say anything, the old eunuch suggested wisely: "Your Majesty, please go wait outside."
Lao Zhu nodded.
The old eunuch turned around and went out, and asked someone to close the palace door.
"You can say it now." Lao Zhu's tone was still filled with anger.
It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided.
Han Du gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and told the story about the female officer's pregnancy and childbirth.
Lao Zhu was also shocked when he heard this, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhu Biao.
Han Du also looked steadily at Zhu Biao.
