Perhaps because he knew that his death was imminent, Zhou Ben still looked that unruly and unruly.
Zhou Ben also glanced at Han You slightly, with mixed emotions.
There are only a handful of times that I have entered the palace, but it is related to Han You. Every time I enter the palace, it is more miserable than the last.
Han You was not in Beijing before, and his achievements were in vain.
After Han You returned to Beijing, he began to lose face.
After Han You entered the palace, he began to be beaten.
Now that Han You entered the palace with him, he felt that he might not survive.
In fact, Han You really didn't want to put him to death. He kept sighing, almost sighing all he could in this life.
Dignity is earned by oneself. Many people who have no dignity in the first place insist on earning that dignity. If they die, they are finished. They think they have dignity, but in fact they are dead.
Not talking about the impact of this incident, just talking about the relationship between father and son, Han You felt that based on his understanding of Lao Ba, if Zhou Ben knelt down and begged for mercy and cried bitterly, he should be able to save a dog's life.
"Father."
Zhou Ben came to the emperor, straightened his clothes, combed his long hair, and paid homage: "My son...is not filial."
"Treason!"
Lao Ba suddenly raised his arm, but his broad palm refused to fall down, unable to do so.
"Why this, why this."
The arm was finally put down, slowly, and Lao Ba's face seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
"I...as a father...how could my father have neglected you, and Bi'er has made such mistakes as to be like this today?"
Lao Ba's eyes became redder and redder, and his face showed both disappointment and a hint of imperceptible guilt.
Zhou Ben raised his head with a look of confusion on his face.
He thought that he would first be treated with love by an old father, and then be taught a storm of love.
Seeing the unconcealed pain on Lao Ba's face, Zhou Ben felt a sharp pain in his heart.
Han You took a few steps back.
Perhaps, this is Lao Ba's last tenderness as a father.
"Bier."
Lao Ba stretched out his hand and put it on Zhou Ben's shoulder, but slowly lifted him up without using any force.
"As a father, I shouldn't have asked you to go to the East China Sea in the first place. At that time, I was still thinking...I was thinking that you could guard the East China Sea for our Great Zhou Dynasty. As a father..."
Lao Ba closed his eyes, slowly raised his head, and looked at the dark night sky, his voice full of unspeakable self-blame.
"Father."
This is the first time that Zhou Benhuo has seen Lao Ba look like this.
"Hey, my father is here."
Lao Ba retracted his gaze towards the night sky and showed a bitter smile: "This time, as a father... As a father, I can't protect you. Don't blame me."
Lao Ba raised his hand, as if wanting to hold Zhou Ben's shoulder, but slowly dropped it.
"My father is the Son of Heaven, and he is also a father. He is also Bi'er's father. Bi'er, I promise you that I will definitely seek justice for you."
Lao Ba suddenly clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said: "Those who lead you astray, those who make you trapped in the quagmire, those thieves, those evil people, those who deserve to die, as a father, I will not let go of any of them." However, I want to punish these nine tribes, and I want to seek justice for Bi'er!"
"Father, son and minister..."
"My father knows it." Lao Ba shook his head and showed a tired smile: "Without these thieves, villains, and damned people, how could Bi'er be like this today? My father knows even more that it's me... It's my pussy that's too tight, it's all my pussy... it's all my pussy."
The more Lao Ba talks, the more he blames himself: "You have been weak since you were a child. Because of your mother, you have a weak temper. You are not as good as your eldest brother in literature, and not as good as your second brother in martial arts. But I...I don't say it in words, but in my heart You know it, you want to take a breath, you want to let me take a high look, I know it all, I know it in my heart, how can I not know it."
Having said this, Lao Ba, whose eyes became increasingly red, slowly sat on the steps like an old man, and patted the side: "Sit, sit with me for a while, sit with me for a while, think about me." Talk to Bi’er.”
"Father, son and minister..."
"It's okay." Lao Ba waved his hand: "You have gone through all the disasters. As a father...as a father...Bier, don't blame me. As a father, I can't cover up this huge disaster for you, let alone cover it up. Don’t blame me.”
With a "wow" sound, Zhou Ben cried out in pain. Regret instantly filled his body, filling every corner. He could feel it, and felt that his father really wanted to cover up for him, but even he knew it. , this matter was a breakthrough, and it was even more serious than the previous rebellion of his elder brother.
Lao Ba sighed: "Why are Bi'er doing this? You have caused such a huge disaster. Not to mention that I can't think of a way to cover it up for you. I think Commander Han may be helpless."
Han You: "???"
Zhou Bi, who was crying, sat next to Lao Ba.
Zhou Ke suddenly put his arm around Zhou Ben's shoulders: "I wonder, I thought you would stay in the East China Sea and build a palace in the East China Sea. With your strategy and wit, you will definitely be like a fish in water. One day, when the time comes, you will definitely be able to help I am trying to pacify the East China Sea. It is me who is to blame...it is me who is too harsh on you."
"Father, I know I was wrong."
Zhou Ben's face was covered with tears. Even though he had thought about what would happen if things were exposed countless times, even though he thought about being executed in secret, he never thought that his father would blame himself so much and feel so guilty.
"It's good to know you're wrong, it's good to know you're wrong, but you're not the only one who's wrong. I've said that I will never let them go."
Lao Ba's expression began to turn ferocious: "After this incident, Han You will not be able to go to the East China Sea. My father will ask your eldest brother to go, not to rectify the boat master, but to find justice for you and punish those who harmed you." people…"
"Your Majesty!" Han You was shocked: "This matter has not yet been decided, please give me some time, I will definitely..."
"You've done enough."
Lao Ba interrupted Han You and shook his head slightly: "The Goguryeo envoy died in Beijing, and the spearhead is pointed at you. How can you go to the East China Sea again?"
"Can…"
"I told you, you have done enough."
Han You's expression changed again and again, looking at Lao Ba's somewhat unfamiliar face. Just when he was about to say something more, Wen Wu and Lu Baichuan shook their heads at him.
Eunuch Suan and Dachuan'er also saw that Lao Ba was extremely sad, so sad that he shouldn't be entangled in other things at this time.
"Please, father, take back your life." Zhou Bi wiped his tears and said, "I am not afraid of death, but my eldest brother must not go to the East China Sea. If he goes, he will be harmed."
"Look at your child, you are as confused as you were when you were a child. You always think that you are better than Xiao'er. Xiao'er may not be able to do what you can't do. Believe in me, believe in your elder brother, wait until your elder brother is gone. …”
Lao Ba was filled with murderous intent: "Kill all those who harmed you. No one will be spared. All nine clans will die!"
Seeing Lao Ba's determination, Zhou Ben was anxious and worried: "If my father insists on doing this, I... I want to... want to report..."
Lao Ba shook his head: "I will ask your eldest brother to check, because my father knows your temper."
Patting Zhou Bi's shoulder, Lao Ba forced a smile and said: "Bier, you are good at everything, but... you are just always confused and can't tell who is sincerely good to you and who is taking advantage of you. That's all, to this day. , I don’t want to teach you any more grievances or embarrass you. You don’t want to betray those thieves. I understand that this is your strength, generosity, and benevolence, but it is also your shortcoming. You are always deceived and deceived. That’s okay, your elder brother will investigate clearly.”
"Father~~~"
Zhou Ben burst into tears and choked up: "I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm very wrong, I thought my father... my father has never cared about me , I just wanted to make my father take a high look, so I conspired with Lanshan Academy. I also know that they are using me, but I am just unwilling to accept it."
"Silly boy."
Lao Ba's eyes were also red: "You gave birth to me for my father. How could my father not take you to heart? But today, my father is the Son of Heaven. There are some things and some words that I..."
"It is Chang Zhi, the minister of Weiwei Temple, Xu Mingfang, the young minister of Sinong Temple, and Chao Wenli, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. It is these three people who have bewitched the ministers in the capital. These three people are extremely insidious and vicious. If the eldest brother goes to the East China Sea, the three of them will definitely attack him. It’s not good for the big brother.”
Except for Lao Ba, everyone present took a deep breath.
Six departments and nine temples have been designed. There is a temple minister and a young minister, and there is also a minister, and he is also the minister of the Ministry of official affairs!
The Ministry of Personnel is extremely important. Although there are three provinces, the Ministry of Personnel is still responsible for the ordinary selection and appointment of officials.
Previously, the leader of the civil service was Zhao Tai. After Atai was promoted, he did not recommend anyone to be the minister in order not to fall into the blame. Chao Wenli was previously the minister of Weiwei Temple, and he was also the first to stand up and pledge allegiance to the emperor. That group of people just had little presence in the court.
When choosing the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Lao Ba thought not to use someone from Zhao Tai. In addition, after the establishment of the three provinces, the power of the Ministry of Personnel was greatly weakened. Finally, he made an exception and let a temple minister serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Moreover, this Minister was only "Dai" has not yet risen in rank. Whether he can become a real minister depends on his subsequent performance.
Who would have imagined that this guy is actually from Donghai, and he is so bold and crazy.
Lao Ba was also really shocked: "Only these three people?"
"Yes, these three people are all from Lanshan Academy. My son was also surprised when he found out that Chao Wenli was also from Lanshan Academy. Father must tell the eldest brother, and don't let him get in the way of these three people. .”
Lao Ba asked again: "Are these three people the only ones in Lanshan Academy in Beijing?"
"Yes, there are only these three people. Changzhi, the minister of Weiwei Temple, knew that my son had committed unspeakable things when he was in the East China Sea fiefdom, so he used this as a threat..."
"good."
Before Zhou Bi, who was crying with grief on his face, finished speaking, Lao Ba stood up and looked at Wen Wu and Lu Baichuan: "Now you can beat me, beat me to death, break his legs, this beast, from now on Don’t even think about stepping out of the prison and beating yourself to death!”
