These servants walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion one after another. Yaoyao walked out, faced the house ant, and said: "Master." The house ant looked at Yaoyao and said, "You can leave too." Yaoyao looked at the house ant with tears in her eyes and said: " Master, I will not leave. I am willing to follow you for the rest of my life, no matter what happens in the future? My heart will not change." The family ant stood up, walked forward, stood next to Yaoyao, and said: "Why are you doing this? Just follow me. You will suffer. After you get out, find a good insect family and marry her. A family of three can live a happy life, which is better than what you are doing now." The house ants don't want to harm the insect family. Yaoyao had already seen through its mind, so she said: "Master, you know that the slave family is good to the slave family. The slave family is willing to never marry for life. If the master offends the king because of his fierce words and is convicted, even if he goes to the execution ground, the slave family will accompany him." Follow the master to die." Yaoyao is completely infatuated with the ants. How can the ants know each other when they are busy with state affairs? It's a pity that this young and beautiful woman has red leaves blowing in the wind outside the wall, and there are many cages and red clothes inside the wall. The lotus left empty makes people sigh, only the residual fragrance makes Rao's head pity and sigh. The house ants couldn't bear the beautiful flowers to wither in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so they could only make up their minds and said to the wall: "You go, let me go. From now on, the Prime Minister's Mansion won't need you. Let's go." Throwing his sleeves back. , pretending to be indifferent. Yaoyao stood behind the house ant and said: "Jia ant, are you so heartless?" Tears burst out of her eyes, and she stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on both sides, nodded and said: "Yes, yes, you are the prime minister ant, your identity is How noble it is, and I am just a ruined flower. No matter how beautifully I dress up, I still can't win you to look at me. So what if you are infatuated with me? Maybe it's just wishful thinking on my part, silly." I couldn't stop crying. The living person fell down and ran out of the hall crying. The house ants turned around and looked at each other, saying: "Yao Yao, I am sorry for you."
Yaoyao happened to bump into Da Sikou when she was running out. She apologized and said, "I'm sorry." Da Sikou asked, "What's wrong with you?" Yaoyao looked at the house ants standing in the hall and was very surprised. I feel so wronged that I can't even say a word. Da Sikou also has children. He is quite old, so how can he not know what his daughter's family is thinking? Asked: "Do you like house ants?" Yaoyao looked up at Da Sikou. Although the great Sikou was in charge of the criminal law and gave Chong a feeling of being selfless, he also had a careful side. He said, "I would be willing to hold the line for you. Are you willing?" Yaoyao suddenly blushed with embarrassment and did not answer. Da Sikou said again: "What? I don't want to." Yaoyao immediately said, "I do."
Da Sikou walked in, and Yaoyao followed behind him. After Da Sikou walked in, he said: "Jia Yi." Jia Yi stepped forward to greet him and saluted, "Sikou Da Yi." Da Sikou immediately helped Jia Yi up and said, "You are the prime minister, and I am your subordinate. Why? Can you salute me?" After Jia Yi stood up, he looked at Yaoyao behind him and said, "Why are you still here? Let's go!" Da Si Kou saw this and said, "Jia Yi, I am in the same court as your husband Bai Zhen. When I became an official, I was afraid of the power of the prime minister and did not dare to rescue me, which caused your husband to die unjustly in prison. I am your elder here, and you should call me uncle. If you still recognize me as uncle , please take back this sentence." The ant said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty favors traitors and is far away from the virtuous. My excessive words will definitely offend your Majesty. If Your Majesty blames it, it will be implicated, so I can only dismiss the ant. This way we don't have any worries." Da Sikou said: "You have been together for so many years, don't you still know its thoughts?" The house ant was a little stunned and said, "What can it have on its mind?" Da Sikou looked at the house ant. , making him unable to speak for a long time. House ants are so smart when it comes to national affairs, and their strategies are surprisingly good. It is not an exaggeration to say that their IQ can reach 90%. Their strategies are comparable to those of the ants in the ant tribe. However, he is so incompetent in dealing with the emotions of his children. His IQ is almost 0%, which cannot even be compared with an ordinary insect. It is very worrying for the insect! Said: "You! I really don't know what to say to you. Aren't you usually very smart? Why are you so confused about this matter? Sometimes I really don't know whether you are really confused or pretending to be confused. Are you really driving it away this time to protect it? You are showing irresponsibility." Da Sikou's words made the house ant speechless, and he raised his head and said: "I, I..." I don't know what to say. Yaoyao stood aside and said: "Jiayi, please listen to me. The slave family will not leave. The slave family is willing to accompany you for the rest of your life. No matter how bad things happen to you in the future, even if you go to prison, the slave family will not hesitate to live or die. Accompany you." Then he walked out of the hall and entered the boudoir.
Da Si Kou and Jia Yi sat down opposite each other. Da Si Kou asked: "Prime Minister, Jia Yi handed over the collected money to the treasury. Did we really blame it?" Jia Yi said: "It is asking your Majesty It shows loyalty to win the king's trust and protect itself. It is greedy and competes with the people for profit. How can it make money for the country? Use money to bribe the eunuchs around the king, and these eunuchs will do things for it. , this is also a bad move on my part. If you ignore this point and shoot yourself in the foot, you will bring it upon yourself." Da Sikou said: "After the battle at Qingshui River, all the officials were panicked, like a frightened bird, and there was no official to blame. He sent an envoy to the ant tribe. However, this Jia ant was very articulate, so he had no choice but to send him. At that time, the Prime Minister saw through his mind, and if he stayed, he would have endless troubles. He killed him after he sent an envoy to the ant tribe, but the king could not listen to his advice and favored him. Treacherous and sycophantic, far from being virtuous, this is the disaster of the termite clan." Jia Yan also felt ashamed of this matter, and said: "I don't care about what the king said. From now on, Jia Yan and I swear to be incompatible, even if it means remonstrance to the death. I want to persuade the king to kill Jia Yi, eradicate the traitors, and revitalize the court." Da Si Kou agreed, looked out of the hall, then looked back and said, "You'd better go and coax it." The house ant was stunned again, Said: "I can't speak, how do you want me to coax?" Da Sikou shook his head and said: "As for how to coax, it depends on whether you are sincere." Then the house ant stood up, sighed and left .
The house ant walked out of the hall and stood outside the door of Yaoyao's boudoir. He hesitated for a long time before making a decision and went forward to knock on the door. There was no response in the room and he was about to leave. At this time, the door opened, Yaoyao walked out, stood behind the house ant, and said: "Master." The house ant then turned around and said: "Yao Yao." Yaoyao said: "Master, come in with the slave family." Ant followed Yaoyao and entered Yaoyao's boudoir. Yaoyao was sitting in front of the dressing table, her eyes were red and even her makeup was stained by tears. It was obvious that she had cried sadly. The house ant stood up and stood next to Yaoyao. At this time, it couldn't speak anymore and said: "Yao Yao, I, I..." Yaoyao looked at the bewildered Jia ant standing next to her, stood up and spoke to him. The house ant was so close that you could feel the tight breathing of the house ant. He threw himself into the house ant's arms and said, "House ant, you don't have to say anything. I already know it." The house ant also kept silent and hugged it. In your arms, gently stroke its back with your hands to express comfort.
The house ant dismissed all the servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion and built a coffin for himself without any worries. This time he remonstrated with him with the intention of dying. Yaoyao ran out and said: "Master." Yaoyao stood behind the house ant and said: "Master, if something happens to the master this time when he enters the palace, the slave family will not be able to survive. I am willing to accompany the master to the underworld." The house ant turned around , bowed and saluted, then dragged the coffin into the palace, stood outside the palace gate, and met the termite king. When the eunuch saw this, he broke out in a cold sweat and immediately went into the palace to report, saying: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is dragging the coffin outside the palace gate to ask for an audience." The Termite King immediately stood up and became furious, saying: "What? The Prime Minister is going to ask for an audience. Are you trying to force me into the palace? You threaten Gu with death at every turn. Do you really think that Gu will not dare to kill him?" Da Si Kou stood up and said: "Your Majesty, no! If Your Majesty kills the Prime Minister, it will achieve the Prime Minister's reputation of being loyal to the country. Your name will be sung all over the world. Your Majesty, the world's insects will accuse you of being a foolish king who kills loyal people indiscriminately and does not defend loyalty and traitors!" The termite king listened to the advice of the great Sikou and said: "It wants to die alone, so it just doesn't let it. If you die alone, please ask the Prime Minister to go back." The eunuch walked out and said: "Xiang Guo, the king is not here today, so please come back." The house ant knelt in front of the coffin, raised his head and said, "Please kill the king immediately. , please your Majesty, please kill Jia Yi immediately." The King of Termites was no longer interested in listening to the courtiers discussing government affairs, and announced that the court was dismissed. The ministers walked out and surrounded the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is the head of hundreds of officials. He eliminates thieves for the country, does not hesitate to offend the king, and puts life and death at risk. When the chief minister saw him, he knelt outside the main hall, and then the ministers knelt behind them, facing into the palace gate. The eunuch walked out and saw such a formation, and secretly walked into the imperial study.
When the Termite King saw it, he walked up and asked: "Has the Prime Minister returned?" The eunuch replied: "No! The Prime Minister led all his officials to kneel outside the palace gate and begged the King to kill Jia Yi immediately." The Termite King was very angry. He said: "They are forcing the palace, forcing Gu Gu to kill." Jia Yan couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately stepped forward and knelt down, saying: "Father, they hate their sons and ministers so much, why not kill one to scare a hundred, or kill a chicken to scare the monkeys?" But it can stop everyone's mouth." The Termite King disagreed and said: "If I kill Xiangguo at this time, I will really become the faint king they say, and history will record Gu's cruelty and be punished for eternity. Swear." Then he walked out of the imperial study and stood on the pedestal of the palace.
The Termite King stood on the pedestal, facing the ministers outside the main hall. The Prime Minister and his officials kowtowed and said, "Please, Your Majesty, kill Jia Yi immediately." The Termite King faced the eunuchs on the left and right and said, "The most important thing for the Prime Minister is his own reputation, and I will fulfill it today." After thinking for a while, he said: "The King of Chuanxiang is on the pedestal." The eunuch stood up and spread the word: "The King of Chuanxiang is on the pedestal." The house ants got up and walked up the steps, bowed and saluted, and said: "Please kill the king immediately." The termite king said. He said: "No, Xiang Guo's death advice is to fulfill his own wisdom in this life. If I don't allow you to die, I invite Xiang Guo to come up and watch the execution." Xiang Guo raised his head and looked at each other and said: "Your Majesty." The Termite King ignored it. , facing the officials kneeling outside the palace gate, he said: "Drag these troublemaking officials down and punish them with a hundred sticks." The soldiers rushed out, dragged these officials down one by one, and pressed them on the stone pier. The wooden staff was struck down hard, and the sound of the sound of wind was heard when the wooden staff was struck down, and flesh and blood flew everywhere immediately. The Prime Minister couldn't bear to look directly at the ants, seeing that they were all beating to pieces. Many officials lay down on the stone piers and fainted. They were splashed with cold water to wake them up and continued beating. Some clenched their teeth and remained silent, with cold sweat pouring down their foreheads. As blood dripped down bit by bit, some even hung on by a thread. After the cane punishment was completed, the tortured officials were dragged down, leaving blood stains all the way. Then, clean water was brought to clean up the blood stains flowing on the ground and on the stone piers. The termite king stood on the pedestal and said: "If there is another person who persuades an orphan to kill a house ant, it will not be as simple as a stick punishment." The house ant faced the termite king and said: "My king, you are self-willed and use traitors, termites. Your clan will perish because of your pride. Your Majesty, if you don’t kill Jia Yi today, you will have endless troubles in the future, and it will be too late to regret it by then."
