Your Majesty is good at everything, but ascending the throne as a woman has caused countless criticisms and made her doubt herself.
The Wu family spared no effort to support her, and she favored some of the Wu family in public and private matters.
Su Hong understands this very well.
I just feel that if this continues for a long time, the country will be "overwhelmed" and His Majesty will eventually be "backlashed".
The brave Di Ying dared to shoot the Wu family for the first time, and I believe he will continue to do so.
Su Hong supported Di Ying in his heart.
But he couldn't say it outright, so he could only remain silent and let His Majesty's suspicion "attack".
The hall fell silent for a moment.
After a while, the old emperor clicked his tongue and said with emotion: "What a hedgehog."
Then he went to the imperial study room.
Su Hong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed.
The cold wind outside is getting stronger and stronger. It seemed like it was carrying a sweeping momentum, blowing everything within its reach to staggering.
Under the night, wild shadows danced wildly, making people's vision feel extremely chaotic.
…
And in such weather and night, although the old emperor could not sleep peacefully, it could make other people become active.
Dadu City, a city called "Liujifang" where poor people live together.
Upon entering the simple courtyard, Wang Mu, dressed in a short coat, walked into a side room carrying a wooden tray, a steamed bun and a bowl of water.
In the room, Ma Cai's hands and feet were tied and he was sitting on a stool in a daze.
Seeing Wang Mu come in, Ma Cai's eyes suddenly burst into light of hope.
He struggled to stand up, jumped to his knees and begged.
"Brother, please do me a favor and let me go? I am a follower of the Minister of Rites, and I always obey my master's orders in everything I do.
Brother, no matter what grudge or hatred you have, you really can’t find me. Please let me go, let me go. I have money and have saved a lot of money. If you let me go, I will give you everything. "
Wang Mu smiled after hearing this.
He squatted down, placed the wooden plate on the ground, and gently pushed it toward Ma Cai.
He didn't say whether he would answer or not, he just said: "Let's eat and drink first."
After finishing speaking, Wang Mu met Ma Cai's eager eyes, glanced at the door behind him, and then put a finger in front of his lips, making a "silence" gesture.
Seeing Wang Mu's series of reactions, Ma Cai, who has always been the most understanding of eyes, suddenly felt "blessed in his soul".
He closed his mouth, grabbed the steamed bun and started chewing it, keeping his eyes on Wang Mu.
He was biting so hard that he choked, and couldn't bear to look away even a little bit.
Wang Mu then picked up the water bowl and put it into Ma Cai's hand.
While shouting: "Ma Cai! Since you know that you are just a dog beside the master, you shouldn't jump out and accuse him of murder!"
You shouldn't rely on your master's power and think you'll be fine if you get rid of the crime.
Are you okay now? Is there no place to run? If you kill someone, you must die, so be prepared to die for your master. "
After scolding him, Wang Mu saw Ma Cai start drinking water, and quietly made a "three" sign to him, then stood up and went out.
Outside the door, Sun Hui was still standing.
Seeing Wang Mu come out, Sun Hui closed the door, curled his lips and said, "Why are you talking nonsense to me? The master only asked us to keep an eye on him, but he didn't let you chat with him. Don't do unnecessary things." It breaks the great master’s trust in us.”
When Wang Mu heard this, he lowered his eyes and replied in a low voice with a heavy tone: "They are all followers. They usually follow up and go out, but when something goes wrong, they are pushed out to block the pot. It's quite unbearable to see."
"Tch, what are you talking about? Can the eldest master compare with that guy's master? Can we be the same as that kind of thing? The eldest master treats us well, don't think twice." Sun Hui retorted.
Wang Mu nodded and remained silent.
Sun Hui still felt that Wang Mu's idea was a bit "dangerous", so he wanted to make a few more remarks.
Suddenly I heard a "clang" sound coming from inside the house.
Sun Hui said impatiently: "Listen, this kind of dog who is used to being arrogant, can't recognize the reality after being tied up, and is still making such a fuss. Fortunately, there is only one stool in the room, otherwise everyone would have to be beaten. You've been kicked to pieces. Just pay attention and I'll tie you to the pillar."
With that said, Sun Hui opened the door.
Go in and prepare to kick the horse a few times, then tie it up a little stronger.
But what he saw suddenly made Sun Hui sweat all over his body.
Inside the house, illuminated by a dim oil lamp, the horse was lying sideways on the ground, vomiting black blood from its mouth, and black blood dripping from its seven orifices.
He hasn't died yet, he's still twitching and vomiting there.
Sun Hui rushed over, knelt down and punched Zhao Qian in the stomach, shouting: "Spit! Vomit out everything you have eaten!"
Ma Cai vomited, and Lian Wuxue vomited out some steamed bun residue.
But after only spitting out two mouthfuls, he struggled to die.
breathless...
Sun Hui stared blankly at Ma Cai, who had stopped moving at all, with only a blank left in his mind.
They have followed Mr. Yao Cong and Mr. Yao since they were young. Over the years, they have become his confidants and almost never make any mistakes.
After receiving the order from the eldest master, they secretly guarded the door of the Minister of Rites' Mansion. When the horse was finally left alone, they quietly tied it here.
The eldest master has given many warnings and instructions: You must guard the horse carefully, and you must not let it escape or die.
But...but why did this happen?
Sun Hui was shocked and dazed, and his eyes suddenly focused on the steamed bun dregs.
His heart suddenly beat wildly.
He slapped the ground, stood up, and rushed out of the house.
Outside the house, Wang Mu was no longer around.
…
In the other area, "Ning Gongfang", which has more workshops.
In a small courtyard that was also entered, Wu Minzhe's parents were sitting opposite each other in a side room, sighing.
"Master Yao brought us here without saying anything. It has been nearly ten days. He has not come back and has not let us go back. How long are we going to be detained?" Father Wu said.
When Mother Wu heard this, the look of sadness on her slightly shriveled face became a little more intense, and she said honestly: "Master Yao hates us, right?
He is just a friend of Min Zhe'er, and he is willing to run for Min Zhe'er, but we, we...
Just keep him locked up, just to atone for his sins. "
"Atoning for what sin? Is that something we can do?"
When Father Wu heard this, he became angry. "Where are our whole family? Minzhe died because of his stubbornness. Do we still need all of us to follow him and bury him?"
Do you think I don't feel sorry for him? I am more sad when he dies than when I die, but we can’t fight those evil people. Hasn’t Mr. Yao ever fought before? Why are we arrested and locked up to vent our anger? "
