Rebirth of Noble Menjiao

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living and the people, continue learning from the past saints, and create peace for all generations...Chu Fenglin, do you still remember your original intention of studying?"

"You don't need to reason with me. You said you would give me a chance. Isn't that because you have a guilty conscience? As an emperor, you snatched the wife of a minister. Naturally, you feel that you can't help me. Therefore, you think you are in good hands. For me, why do you think I should be grateful for this? If you hurt others and think you have made up for it, why should others forgive you? Because you are the emperor, then you should not be the emperor? Yes." Chu Zhiyu curled his lips and smiled more and more freely.

Everyone was silent after hearing Chu Zhiyu's words, but instead of being angry, Emperor Chongning said frankly, "I feel sorry for you. Although the queen has always treated you like a brother and has no other feelings for men and women, but you After all, there is a marriage contract, and you treat the queen differently. The queen also felt that she owed you something before she died. When she died, she told me that I would treat your Chu family well, and I also cherish your talents and hope that I will treat you well. I hope that you can contribute to our great Zhou Dynasty and benefit thousands of people. Therefore, I have entrusted you and your son with important responsibilities, but you have left the people of your family and country behind because of your own selfishness. However, ten years ago, I should not have let you go for temporary selfishness, otherwise, if you had colluded with Beidi and trapped Anxi in the chaos of war, I would have punished you for the whole Chu family. "

As soon as these words came out, the whole palace was silent. Xue Lin's expression froze, and Mingyi noticed it immediately, and the hand he held turned to hold his.

Xue Lin lowered his eyes and met her eyes full of concern. His expression moved slightly, and then he touched the corner of his lips to indicate that he was fine.

But how could everything be okay? Mingyi stretched out her other hand, covering the back of his hand, holding him tightly, hoping to convey some warmth and strength to him, as if she could do nothing else but this.

Over there, Chu Yanze trembled slightly and suddenly turned to look at Chu Zhiyu. Wei Xuuzhi raised his lips and smiled sarcastically, "What? Brother Yue Qin, didn't you think that your father had done such a thing? Speaking of which, you guys There are similarities between father and son. They can throw away everything for a woman. What does this mean? "Like father, like son?"

"Shut up!" Chu Yanze snorted coldly. He used some force with the hand holding the dagger, and the blade moved an inch closer to Wei Xuanzhi's neck.

Wei Xuanzhi understood the situation and shut up obediently, not provoking Chu Yanze any more.

Chu Yanze stared in the direction of Chu Zhiyu with a complicated expression, but the latter suddenly smiled, "Sure enough... when you found a reason to dismiss me from my post, I guessed that you must have noticed something... However, with Don’t say it so grandly, it’s just because you have no evidence. Otherwise, how could you tolerate me? "

"Evidence?" Emperor Chongning glanced at the servant Xu beside him. The latter immediately took out a letter knowingly and shook it out in front of everyone. The familiar monogram fell into Chu Zhiyu's eyes, and his pupils suddenly flashed. Shrinking, the corners of his lips suddenly tightened.

Naturally, Chu Yanze knew the flower pattern, and his expression changed slightly. Even if the people around him didn't recognize the monogram, they could guess it when they saw it, and their eyes on Chu Zhiyu changed subtly.

"The evidence was handed over to me by Governor Xue as early as ten years ago. It was me... who hid this evidence out of selfish motives. It was me... who couldn't bear to be blamed for Anxi and those who caused chaos in Anxi. Soldiers and people who have died in vain for many years." At this point, Emperor Chongning looked at Xue Lin, as if he wanted to stand up, but he had no strength, but he still persisted, bowed towards Xue Lin, and said with a wry smile. , "After all, I am not a saint, I have selfish motives, and I will use power for personal gain. I am guilty, and I will probably get my retribution now."

Xue Lin lowered his eyes and covered up the dark light in his eyes. Although he could understand His Majesty's actions, he also knew that it was precisely because of his apology that His Majesty believed in him and fully supported him over the years, but he had no position. Forgive the people and soldiers of Anxi who died in vain.

Chu Zhiyu suddenly laughed. His laughter was low and gradually became louder. His eyes were a little red in the laughter, which made people's hair stand on end. "If you lose, you lose. After all, my life is no better than yours." His eyes glanced at Xue Lin and Mingyi as if they were pointing, and he hummed, "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. At this point, I have nothing more to say. Kill or behead, it's up to you!" After that! , he closed his eyes directly and looked like he was about to kill him. "Chu Yueqin, are you really so hard-hearted that you don't care about your father's life or death?" Wei Xuazhi whispered in Chu Yanze's ear. Chu Yanze was in a trance for a moment, but when he heard this sentence, his expression was even more shocked. At this moment , Wei Xuanzhi's eyes flashed, and he hit him hard. Chu Yanze's hand holding the dagger tilted, and the sharp tip of the knife passed across his neck, bringing out a flash of blood, but at the same time, the blade was far away. Wei Xuanzhi's neck, Wei Xuanzhi turned and grabbed the blade with his hand, and put it on Chu Yanze's neck. The situation suddenly changed.

There was an indescribable strangeness on the line of blood on the neck, and against the corners of Wei Xuanzhi's lips, he said, "Brother Yue Qin, don't move. The sword has no eyes. It will be bad if it hurts you!" Chu Yanze froze as he passed by. With a complexion on his face, he looked at Mingyi again, his lips curled up, "Princess Yun'an, Mr. Chu just saved you and helped you, you shouldn't care about his life or death, right?"

Mingyi pursed her lips tightly. She knew she couldn't let the tiger go back to the mountains, but she couldn't just watch Chu Yanze die. Wei Xunzhi could do that.

Xue Lin also frowned and said nothing, but inside and outside the palace, his men suddenly raised their swords, and their swords were on the verge of breaking out.

"Prime Minister Chu, don't worry. I just want Brother Yue Qin to get out of the palace safely. I will never hurt him unless it is absolutely necessary." Wei Xuazhi smiled at Chu Zhiyu who was looking over from a distance, "Prime Minister Chu, trapped beasts are still fighting, you and me. There is still a backup plan, and it’s not the end of the road!” The deceptive meaning in these words was clear, but everyone present was trembling.

Xue Lin took a step forward and said, "Could it be that the Third Young Master Wei is waiting for your Xiangnan Army? What did the message you received this morning say? Let me think about it... Yes, it said that the army has arrived. Guozhuang is only eighty miles away from Wangjing City. We will arrive in Beijing the day after tomorrow at the latest, right?" Seeing Wei Xuanzhi's face suddenly turn pale, Xue Lin's usually expressionless face showed something strange. Si Xiaoying'er said, "It seems that you like the good news I specially sent to Third Young Master Wei."

"Wei Xuanzhi, the Xiangnan Army you are waiting for will not come!" Mingyi's deep voice mercilessly exposed Wei Xunzhi's last luck.

Wei Xuanzhi's expression changed a few times, and he suddenly laughed, "You are really amazing. You cut off my retreat early in the morning without letting me notice. It's really... interesting! But, who told you about my backup plan? Only the Hunan Army?"

As Wei Xuanzhi spoke, he raised his eyes with a meaningful smile and looked behind Xue Lin and Mingyi.

The two of them suddenly felt uneasy and turned to look behind them. Their eyes followed Wei Xuanzhi's gaze and finally landed on Fu Ruixuan and An Qian.

The hands of the two of them were still tightly held together, and their expressions were either happy or sad. An Qian's face was so pale that there was no trace of blood. Fu Ruixuan raised a pair of red eyes and looked over, his eyes filled with emotion. It is an unwilling despair.
