Chapter 44 43. Father's Sin and Son's Redemption (Thanks for your support! Please read on!)

"King Wu wants to kill me?!" A chill came from the bottom of his feet, and Wang Zhi murmured, "He really wants to rebel!"

"Lieutenant Zhi! Let's go back to the station!" Wang Zhi shouted to Zhidu.

"Brother Wang, stay here! I can protect you!" Liu Ju grabbed Wang Zhi's arm.

"Stay?!" Zhi Du pushed Liu Ju away, "This is the crown prince and concubine, how could he stay!"

"I don't believe it!" Liu Ju slapped Zhidu with one palm, and grabbed Wang Zhi with the other hand.

Wang Zhi avoided Liu Ju's hand, and pulled off the fake beard on his lips: "I'm really a woman!"

Liu Ju was taken aback for a moment, retracted his hand, and widened his eyes in disbelief.

While Liu Ju retracted his hands in a daze, Zhidu grabbed Wang Zhi and left!The attendants at the door blocked the way, and Zhi Du kicked one of them over.

"Let them go!" Liu Ju yelled, "Don't go back to the station again! Go straight to the pier in front by boat!"

Zhidu dragged Wang Zhi to run wildly through the crowd, and jumped into a small boat at the pier.

"What are you doing? Go down, go down!"

"Boatman, here's the money! Hurry up and sail away!"

"I am a salt ship, not carrying people!"

"Let's go!" Zhi Du drew his sword and put it on the man's neck!

"Go, go, go..." The boatman was so frightened that he hurriedly punted the boat.

Wang Zhi hid in the cabin, only to see several large earthen vats lined up in the cabin, full of coarse salt.

After Zhidu urged the boat to leave the shore, he entered the cabin.Seeing the salt vat, I started to throw the salt into the river with the boatman's salt bucket.Wang Zhi also helped.The boatman dared not speak out.

"General Ji doesn't know what's going on!"

"Don't worry," Zhi Du glanced at the boatman, and said in a low voice, "General Ji has the name of an imperial envoy, so it's safer. On the contrary, it's your mother. If you don't reveal your identity, even being killed can be dismissed as manslaughter!"

Wang Zhi took a deep breath, thinking that going out of the palace could relax, but unexpectedly, his life was in danger!

"Liu Bi really wants to rebel... we must let the court know as soon as possible!"

"As long as you can get out of Guangling, you can go to Sheyang or Wu County, and there are fast riders at the post!" Zhi Du said, and took out the dagger Liu Ju gave him from his arms. "This dagger is suitable for you!"

Wang Zhi took the dagger: "Luckily, Liu Ju reminded me to take the boat, at least I didn't have any intention of harming me!"

"Hmph! My son rebelled, and my son redeemed himself!" Zhi Du sneered, "Liu Bi has been rebelling for more than 20 years, how old is Liu Ju?"

The boat was approaching a fork in the river, and saw someone guarding it from a distance, and boarded the boat to check.

"Dock, dock!"

Zhidu ordered the boatman to dock.The boatman saw that Zhidu was helping Wang Zhi to go ashore, and was about to raise his hand to shout, when Zhidu turned around and pierced his chest with a sword, and dragged him into the cabin.

Zhidu found some more food, and followed Wang Zhi, through the reeds and into the woods.

Wang Zhi grabbed the leaves of the maple tree, rubbed them in the palm of his hand, and applied the juice on his face and neck. In an instant, he turned into a rough man with black and yellow complexion.

Follow a small road to a main road.At this time, it was almost dusk.They decided to go to Wu County by boat.

Mixed in the crowd in twos and threes, bypassing the inspection gate, they came to the river.Several boats were parked on the shore.Some people cook and do laundry on the shore.

A middle-aged man was cooking in an earthen pot with a tree branch, and Wang Zhi walked over.

"Brother, do you have a boat?" Seeing the man nodding, Wang Zhi took out a piece of gold, "To Wu County, shall we go?"

"Let's go! Let's go after some food!" The man's eyes flashed with greed and joy, "Let's eat together!"

Zhi Du and Wang Zhi looked at each other and sat down on the spot.Chatted with the boatman and went to Wu County to visit relatives, and ate hot porridge and pancakes.

Several soldiers with swords came over and checked one by one.

At a glance, Wang Zhi saw the extremely ugly Zhou Qiu among them.She hurriedly lowered her head and held the bowl for eating, covering half of her face.

Zhou Qiu obviously noticed her too.I walked around them, asked the boatman a few words, and left.

Wang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly that Zhou Qiu turned back, stared at Wang Zhi, smiled sinisterly, and shouted to the other soldiers: "It's her, arrest her!"

A stone kicked up by Zhi Du flew towards Zhou Qiu, grabbed Wang Zhi and ran towards the crowd on the river bank.

"It's dark so we can hide, let's run separately!" Wang Zhi said, shaking Zhidu's hand away.

"No! Where is the empress, I am!" Zhi Du grabbed Wang Zhi again.

"Scatter the troops! You kill the enemy and come to me!" Wang Zhi broke free and ran in the other direction.

Passing by a lively tea shop, Wang Zhi ran in.Zhou Qiu and the two soldiers who followed also followed, and the glaring knife frightened the diners, who immediately made a mess and fled in all directions.

Hiding in a room, Wang Zhi hid behind the door shivering and holding his breath.After the people outside had dispersed, she heard no movement, so she slipped out quietly, walked against the wall and observed the surroundings.

Suddenly, a knife rested on her neck!

Wang Zhi didn't dare to move, when the man stretched out his hand to grab her, she drew out the knife in her sleeve and stabbed the man's neck!

The soldier let go, twitched all over, clutched his neck, curled up and fell down.

Wang Zhi bent down to pick up the soldier's knife, but before she got up, two knives were pressed against her neck.

"Don't move!"

Wang Zhi saw that it was Zhou Qiu and another soldier.Slowly got up under the pressure of the blade.

"His Royal Highness! We captured a person!"

Zhou Qiu and the soldiers pushed the bound Wang Zhi to Liu Ju's horse.

"Your Highness, it was found from her body!" Zhou Qiu respectfully handed over the dagger with the golden scabbard.

The torches held up by the soldiers reflected Liu Ju's blushing on one side and darkening on the other.He took the dagger and played with it in his hand.

Zhou Qiu looked obsequiously at Liu Ju's uncertain face, waiting for the crown prince's reward.Liu Ju's eyes fell on Wang Zhi's stubborn face, he gritted his teeth and got off the horse.

"Get out of the way! I have something to say to the prisoner!"

Liu Ju took Wang Zhi and walked straight to the woods by the river.Looking away from the crowd, no one around, Liu Ju plopped down on his knees!
"I should call you the emperor's wife..." He choked with sobs, "In just a few days, I fell in love with you and didn't know the identity of the emperor's wife, how offended!" He fell to the ground and cried.

Compassion arose in Wang Zhi's heart.In just a few days, Liu Ju didn't show any malice towards her, instead he took care of her everywhere and offered a helping hand at critical moments.

"Get up! Just pretend, I'm still your brother..." she said softly.

Liu Ju stood up, wiped away his tears, and in the dark, drew out his dagger, and cut off the rope that bound Wang Zhi.

"Brother Wang..." Liu Ju couldn't tell whether it was sadness or joy in his voice, and he tremblingly said, "My father and king are rebellious because the current emperor is unfair! The crown prince Liu Qi is good at killing ministers! Even my king Brother Liu Xian is disrespectful, the prince can't kill him at will!"

He looked at Wang Zhi with grief and indignation: "My brother Liu Xian died in vain, but the emperor did not punish the crown prince! Let the murderer go unpunished! To whom?"

You silly boy!Do you really think that Liu Qi killed and disposed of him at will in a fit of anger?This is the emperor's mind!
"Then the king of Wu never invited him, so how can he explain it?" Wang Zhi asked softly, "Only by doing the best of the courtesy of a minister can we seek justice!"

"What is justice? The emperor will let Liu Qi pay for my brother's life?" Liu Ju mocked.

life for a life?is impossible.But the King of Wu forbears to say nothing, and never goes to court, which shows a guilty conscience.

Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang saw that his nephew Liu Bi had the opposite face because of his tutor. He once warned, "Fifty years after the establishment of the Han Dynasty, there will be a rebellion in the southeast. Does this prophecy apply to you? Everyone with the same surname in the world is a family. I hope You proceed with caution and don't rebel."

It was just a few words at first, but the king of Wu has no emperor, he is presumptuous and rude, he is proud of his wealth, he is ambitious, and the opposite has already happened.

How can you allow others to snore beside the couch?The imperial power has always belonged to only one person.Anyone who shows signs of it will be suppressed.

Little life Liu Xian!It's just the emperor's questioning stone, let's see how Liu Bi reacts.In the final analysis, it is a victim of irreconcilable contradictions between centralization and feudalism.

"Then, the king of Wu should do his best to be a courtier! Only when the emperor sees the sufferer can he try to make up for it!" Wang Zhi said mildly.

"Compensation?! The Son of Heaven was furious, laying down millions of dead bodies! Does my father dare to reason with the emperor? The emperor's compensation, give my father a table and a wooden stick, and say that my father is old!"

Wang Zhi was silent.

Liu Bifan suppressed his temper and handed over the tax of "burning mountains for money and boiling seas for salt" to the central government, which would also let the emperor know that you have no resentment.

You and the central government are at odds with each other, rich and powerful in the world, buying people's hearts, putting the state of Wu above the central government, and secretly recruiting troops.The emperor will wait for you to put a knife on his neck?

Centralization of power is a necessary condition for the stability of the Han Empire, and the feudal vassals will sooner or later survive in name only.

The meaning of the emperor is-give you a hat, give you a place, and sit down!Just be me a mascot, a beckoning cat!Don't give me the bared teeth of a tiger and a cat!Good performance, I'll give you a bone to chew on, bad performance?Pump you, cut you, cook you!

"Brother Wang... I just hope that in the future, you can say: If my father is against the king, only one person will be punished, not three clans!" Liu Ju knelt down and cried again.

"This..." Wang Zhi was in a dilemma, and hurriedly helped him up, "Why didn't Your Highness persuade King Wu? Knowing that there is a fire pit in front of you, if you don't dissuade your children, it is unfilial!"

"Since ancient times, my father's order must not be violated! When I try to persuade you, my father always scolds me for being bloodless, cowardly and incompetent..."

"If you want to be wise and safe, leave Wudi as soon as possible! It is the best policy not to join forces with your father!" Wang Zhi said sincerely.

Liu Ju shook his head, "My parents are here, so I won't travel far away. I should do my duty as a son, how can I live with it? If my father and king turn against him and become a teacher of unrighteousness, nothing will happen! Under the overthrow of the nest, will there be eggs? Where am I fleeing to?"

Wang Zhi wanted to slap this sour and filial son awake!To be buried for the parents of the family?What a big boy raised by Liu Bi!One is cruel, Liu Xian dies by fate; the other is soft, Liu Ju wants to embark on the road of no return with Wu Wang's family out of filial piety!

"I will try my best to intercede with the emperor!" Wang Zhi felt inexplicably sad.

Isn't she a royal chess piece, a questioning stone?He went out of Beijing in disguise, went to the dangerous place of Wu State, and was ordered to seize Fu by force.If it is done well, it will serve the royal family, and its status will be stable; if it is not done well, it will become a reason for the royal family to send troops to suppress and destroy Wu and the country!

How could she back down?This is her certificate of honor for the emperor, and it is also her training ground for expanding her strength.If you were to be a charming oriole in the deep palace, you might be thrown into Yongxiang at any time and be at the mercy of others...

As soon as you enter the palace gate, you can't help yourself.In the vortex of power, if you don't struggle upward, you will be crushed to the bottom and crushed into dust!
"Sister-in-law, let's go! There is a manor three miles up the river. I have a concubine, and I am here to maintain my health. You can go to rest and try to escape." He choked up and couldn't say, "She doesn't want to enter the palace. Heart, afraid of implicating the family... This dagger, she knows is my carry-on. The emperor's wife is one for self-defense, and the other is as a token..."

Wang Zhi took the dagger, and wept with emotion: "It's all clear from the bottom of my heart, so why are you so obsessed with it?"

"Crack!" There was a sound of a branch breaking!

"Who?!" Wang Zhi and Liu Ju shouted at the same time!

"Small man... the villain knows his mistakes..."

It turned out that Zhou Qiu chicken thief, in order to claim credit for catching an important person, was unwilling to be rewarded by Prince Wu, followed him, but heard a secret that he shouldn't know!

His legs were weak, and he turned to run away.Wang Zhi pulled out the golden whip from his belt, shook his hand, wrapped it around the chicken thief's neck, pulled it, and Zhou Qiu fell down!
Liu Ju stepped forward and struck out with a sword, Zhou Qiu was silent again.

Wang Zhi took back the golden whip and wrapped it around his belt.

Liu Ju touched his neck subconsciously.

"Three miles up the river?" Wang Zhi stuffed Liu Ju's dagger into his bosom.

"Yes, Jingqingyuan." Liu Ju nodded, "Her name is Wan'er..."

"Ah!..." Liu Ju suddenly held his chest and shouted!A long sword pierced through from behind!

"Zhidu!" Wang Zhi stepped forward and hit Zhidu hard, "Why did you kill him?!"

Zhidu draws his sword.

Liu Ju yelled and fell to the ground!

Wang Zhi rushed over to hug him, tears streaming down his face!
"Why kill him?!" Wang Zhi yelled at Zhidu!

"For the great Han Jiangshan!" Zhidu said coldly, with the cold sword lying across his chest, like a falcon's hair standing up, vigilant about the surroundings.

"But he has no intention of harming others!" Wang Zhi was distraught!
"He's the heir to the throne! He's the one who's going to take the bottom line! If he dies, the King of Wu will have no heirs, so he won't love to fight! Only then can the country be exempted from war!"

"No! He can't die! He is my sworn brother! You kill my brother without my permission!"

Wang Zhi put down Liu Ju, and rushed over to punch and kick Zhidu!Zhidu was silent, and let Wang Zhi vent without moving!

"Brother Wang..." Liu Ju breathed weakly.

Wang Zhi rushed over and hugged him, tears streaming down his face, "It's okay, it's okay... I'm a pharmacist, I'll pick herbs for you to cure..."

Looking around in the dark night, where can I find life-saving medicine?She pressed Liu Ju's wound with her hand, and warm blood gushed out from between her fingers...

"No need... father's sin and son's redemption..." Liu Ju said with difficulty, "my father and king rebelled... the family... must not end well... die early... I can still... have a grand burial... no rebellion ..."

"It hurts so much!..." Liu Ju trembled, "Brother Wang...give me a...joy!" He grabbed Wang Zhi's hand, "I died at the hands of...Brother Wang...no regrets..."

In the dark night, Wang Zhi could clearly see him smiling!This 16-year-old boy!Pure!enthusiasm!friendly!Yu Xiao!But he became a victim of power struggle!How unfortunate to be born in an emperor's family!

Grabbing Liu Ju's short sword, Wang Zhi touched Liu Ju's left chest and heart, but his hands were shaking so much that he couldn't use his strength...

"Brother Wang...it hurts..." Liu Ju held Wang Zhi's sword hand with both hands, even more powerless...

There is a noise in the distance, and it is gradually approaching!

"We have to leave quickly!" Zhi Du pushed down with his palm, and the dagger sank into Liu Ju's body!
Wang Zhi trembled all over, slumped on the ground, and hugged Liu Ju's body, silently...

Zhidu dragged Zhou Qiu's body over, put the sword tied to his body into Liu Ju's hand, and put Zhou Qiu's saber into his hand.

"Go! Let's go!"

Zhidu dragged the staggering Wang Zhi, who gripped tightly the dagger with Liu Ju's blood on it, and plunged into the dark night...

 The victim of the power struggle, it is embarrassing
