Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 631 Is it a rumor?
Xu Jingzong hated Du Ruhui, hated from the bottom of his heart, if it wasn't for Du Ruhui's words, he would be more or less able to get an official now, no matter how big or small an official is, he is always an official, how could he become Changsun Wuji's aide.

What made him even more irritated was that the old brothers who used to eat in the same pot all had a good future, but he was still white. Who could bear this sense of gap.

Not to mention Changsun Wuji, he has a beautiful younger sister, so envy is useless.But Fang Xuanling became a Shangshu, Yu Zhining is now the Minister of Zhongshu, and Su Shichang is also the right minister of the Shangshu.

The clown is me?
Only myself, no bullshit, everything that happened today was thanks to Du Ruhui!
He was angry.

"Elder grandson, let me tell you how to deal with this Du Chuke."

Since there is no way to deal with Du Ruhui now, he might as well deal with his younger brother first and let him feel his pain.

Changsun Wuji chuckled, "Thousands of cases can be broken, but rumors can't be broken."

Hearing this, Xu Jingzong understood in seconds.

"understood."

Changsun Wuji said: "Work hard, one day I will find an opportunity to recommend you to His Majesty."

"Thank you, grandson." Xu Jingzong cupped his hands.The reason why he is willing to serve as Changsun Wuji's staff is that he has taken a fancy to Changsun Wuji's potential.With his younger sister whom His Majesty misses so much, Changsun Wuji will become an important minister sooner or later.

It's a fool not to hug this thigh tightly.

An hour later.

Du Chuke was helpless and left the box with the help of his servants, while Qiniang was arranging her clothes and putting yellow flowers on the mirror.

This order is over, she has to rush to take the next order.

At this time, Xu Jingzong walked in quietly and stood behind Qiniang.

Qiniang's winking eyes moved, and she said softly, "You wicked man, you still know how to come to me."

Xu Jingzong smiled recklessly, squinting his eyes unscrupulously at Qiniang's exposed snow-white skin.

"Beauty, I'm not a heartless man, I'm here to see you?"

"I think you can't hold it any longer!" Qiniang spat, then her expression changed again, and she said seductively, "Xu Lang wants to accompany this concubine. Recently, my concubine's chest is stuffy, so I'm waiting for Xu Lang to come and give it to my concubine." Take care of it."

Xu Jingzong laughed, stepped forward and hugged Qiniang horizontally.

"I'll cure you now!"

With a bang, Qiniang was thrown on the couch, and Qiniang cursed: "Sooner or later, my mother will bite off your evil root."

Xu Jingzong didn't care, raised his hands, and sang: "Qiniang, today, I will use my hands to fulfill your dream!"

After speaking, he blindfolded his eyes with a black cloth, and then rushed over like a hungry tiger.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"

Qiniang's happy voice sounded in the box.

The two little turtle slaves guarding the door looked at each other.

One of them said: "Qi Niangzi has a really good appetite, I just sent one away, and this has brought me interest again."

The other said: "I heard that the fourth lady took the money to redeem herself after death, and the seventh lady may have accepted the incentive, and planned to do it a few more times before closing the mountain, so as to earn enough capital to plan for the rest of her life."

"What are you going to do?" The little turtle slave curled his lips and said, "If a lowly person like us gets free one day, he is also an inferior person, not to mention she is a prostitute."

Having said that, the other little turtle slave was also silent.

Not to mention the second elder brother, the situation is the same, so what is the difference between a little turtle slave and a prostitute?
Changsun Wuji walked in front of the two with an unusually calm expression.Etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame, superiority and inferiority, are engraved deep in Changsun Wuji's flesh and blood.

What happened to others did not arouse half of his sympathy.

Maybe, after killing Du Chuke, he would show a little sympathy when he heard this kind of thing.But not now, because he has no time to sympathize with these servants.

As for why he wanted to kill Du Chuke, who had no vengeance?

The reason is very simple, because he is also in charge of the job under the door.

After only an incense stick of time passed, the voice in the box disappeared.

The little turtle slave commented: "This person is not good."

"Exactly." The other nodded.

Inside the box.

Qiniang sat calmly in front of the dressing table, as if nothing had happened.

No, or something happened.

There was a trace of resentment on her face, it was an expression of not being full.

As for Xu Jingzong, he was lying on the couch half dead.

It can be seen from his eyes.

Live without love.

Dull.

exhausted.

After a while, Xu Jingzong walked behind Qiniang in disheveled clothes, took out three ingots of gold and placed them in front of her.

"Your little mouth is tight on the couch, I don't know how it is outside?"

Qiniang didn't know how many men there were. Although she was moved when she saw those ingots of gold, she knew that she couldn't earn so much from this order, and Xu Jingzong still had things to do by himself.

"Lang Jun ordered, who do you want me to serve as a concubine?"

"It's not for you to serve anyone, but for you to pass on a few words."

"What?"

Xu Jingzong leaned over and whispered something in her ear.

Qiniang's complexion changed, and she said, "You want me to lie to you?"

"It's not a lie." Xu Jingzong said lightly, "Du Chuke was drunk at your place, isn't it normal to say something."

"But he is an official." Qiniang hesitated.

"So what about the official, it's not that I love you." Xu Jingzong praised her with a smile.

Qiniang was heartbroken, but she still asked, "I won't be in trouble, will I?"

"No." Xu Jingzong said: "It's not the first time that many dignitaries and dignitaries are talking nonsense here."

Hearing this, Qiniang felt that there was nothing wrong.If someone checks at that time, I can completely say that Du Chuke himself said it because he drank too much.

She reached out to accept the gold, and looked at Xu Jingzong with winking eyes.

Seeing this, Xu Jingzong's legs went limp.

Within a few days, gossip spread in Chang'an, saying that Du Chuke was uttering wild words at the entrance of Zuimenglou, saying that the Taiyuan order originally belonged to him, but because the emperor favored Liu Rengui, he broke his word and changed the order without authorization.

As soon as this rumor came out, the ruling and opposition parties were in an uproar.

The crux of the rumor is not who is Taiyuan Ling, but the emperor's failure to keep his word.

It is a big taboo to change the order from day to day with the emperor's golden words.

After Li Zhiyun heard the news, he summoned Du Chuke to question him.

Tai Chi Temple.

"When did I say that I would let you take up the post of Taiyuan Commander?"

"The minister has never said such a thing. This is someone talking nonsense. Please learn from your Majesty!"

Du Chuke knelt on the ground, trying to explain his innocence.

Li Zhiyun looked at Jing Zhaoyin Xue Yuanjing.The latter nodded, walked out of the queue, and said: "According to my investigation, Shan Qiniang, a prostitute from Zuimenglou, said that you told her this yourself."

"I didn't, it wasn't me, it's impossible!" Du Chuke denied one after another.

Du Ruhui took a light breath from the side and remained silent.

Involving a prostitute, this kind of thing is inexplicable.It doesn't matter whether Du Chuke said such things or not, the important thing is that the news has already spread.

Li Zhiyun looked at the ministers and asked, "Who is there to testify for him?"

testify?

No one here is a fool, not to mention that the emperor never promised Du Chuke, even the matter itself did not dare to let them help Du Chuke at will.

The reason is very simple, all the people present are men, and whoever drinks too much can't say a few words with a big tongue.

If Du Chuke was really complaining about the emperor, then things would be a big deal.

Although many people wanted to say a few words for Du Chuke because of Du Ruhui's face, but no one took action.

Imperial Attendant Gao Jifu cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Du Chuke's crime of slandering your majesty is unforgivable. Your Majesty, please punish him severely, so as to serve as an example to others."

Du Ruhui's eyelids moved, but he still didn't speak.

When the matter has developed to this point, all that can be done is to find out the truth, sophistry is of no use at all.
