I don't want to be wronged again

Chapter 181 224, Bronze Bell

After the hustle and bustle of the Lantern Festival passed, the palace returned to normal. The palace people performed their duties. Qiuyuan Qiufeng's subordinates each took care of a lot of work, and they were so busy every day that they didn't even have time to catch their breath.On this day, Qiufeng complained to Qingdai: "Those old cunning gangsters! They all talk nicely, turning their buttocks as if they never farted! They won't admit it until the smell is gone! Master, Qiuyuan and I can't do anything about it, can we bring in a few more people from our family? It can help us to share the burden."

Qing Dai frowned and said: "Why do you have to do everything yourself? Just let people do it! You have to remember that you only need to manage people well now, not to manage things yourself! What is important for you is to cultivate a group of capable The person in charge relies on you and Qiu Yuan for everything, no matter how strong you two are, how many nails can you drive?"

Just as he was speaking, Qiu Yuan hurried in, and before he could salute, he came to Qing Dai's side and said in a low voice: "Master, there is an urgent letter from Erhei. It is said that Princess Zhenzhu of Zhenla sent people to look for us. People, it is said that Hu Xuan, the commander-in-chief of Zhennan Pass, is secretly contacting four places in the name of Annan Hu Jicang's descendant, and wants to gather troops to counterattack Daming!"

Qing Dai stood up all of a sudden: "Hu Xuan?! Hu Shanxiang's brother?! Hu Jicang's descendant? So that's it! In this way, all the strange things about the Hu family finally have an explanation! Push it to the back! It turns out that what they are planning is Da Ming's world!"

Qiu Yuan said anxiously: "Master, should we tell the emperor this news as soon as possible?"

Qingdai contemplated for a moment and said: "No, we can't expose the connection with the outside of the palace. In this way, you go tell Erhei, let him find a way to pass the news to Zhang Fu! Let Zhang Fu verify it!"

The three masters and servants have made a plan, and Qiu Yuan hastily left to deliver the letter, only to see the palace servants rushing over to report: "I want to report to your majesty, the emperor, he..."

Qing Dai frowned and said, "What's the matter? Speak well!"

The palace man reported tremblingly: "The emperor suddenly went to the Xiaoyao Hall in a fit of anger, and later, for some unknown reason, he suddenly asked someone to use the bronze bell in front of the hall to cover the common man Zhu Gaoxu in it, lighted firewood, and gave it to him. baked."

In the Xiaoyao Palace, Zhu Gaoxu finished the sword dance without any haste, and then turned his head to the emperor who was sitting there with a sullen face, and said indifferently: "Why did my nephew wake up today to see uncle coming? Is it because I feel sorry that I didn't eat the Lantern Festival?" , bring me some snacks?"

Zhu Zhanji suppressed his anger, took out a piece of paper from his arms and spread it on the table, and asked coldly: "Don't think about eating Yuanxiao first, uncle, let's see if you recognize this person first?"

Zhu Gaoxu glanced up indifferently, his expression changed drastically, he rushed to grab the paper, and grabbed the paper in his hands, only to see a young girl with eyes like cold stars, looking down on the world. manner.

Zhu Gaoxu's hand that could hold a three-stone strong bow couldn't help but tremble. The girl on it was painted so lifelike, as if it was a living Li Han standing in front of his eyes.

The sockets of his eyes couldn't help getting wet. Unexpectedly, there would be a day when he would hear from her again within this high wall.

Suddenly he became alert, and shouted to the emperor: "What did you do to her?! My sins are borne by me alone. She left me a long time ago, and she doesn't know anything about me! Don't listen to people's words and embarrass her! !"

Zhu Zhanji's heart was twisted like a knife. A few days ago, Chen Jian, the commander-in-chief of Juyongguan, went to the Secret Book, saying that Empress Sun was the remnant of the king of Han!After he summoned Chen Jiangeng, he really didn't want to believe it, but Chen Jiangeng was so convincing, the more he thought about it, the more disturbed he became, and he asked Jin Yiwei to take someone to the border town to investigate.

People in the border town remembered that Miss Li Hanli had many people, and many people still worshiped her ancestral hall. Jin Yiwei brought the portraits and witnesses from those ancestral halls. The emperor didn't say anything. I just drew a portrait of Qingdai myself, to let those people recognize that the emperor's painting skills are very good, and ordinary painters can't compare, and he is very familiar with Qingdai. They all said: "This is Miss Li!", "That's her! Bodhisattva bless you! She's still alive!"

The emperor kept silent, and waved his hand to take those people away. After sitting on the dragon chair for a long time, he realized that he should ask someone, so he came to Xiaoyao Hall.

At this time, his last ray of hope was finally shattered after seeing Zhu Gaoxu's performance. He sneered: "You protect her like this, do you know that she doesn't care about your life at all, and she is living a very nourishing life!"

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the person in the portrait affectionately and greedily, and said nonchalantly: "I am the one who is sorry for her, it is just right for her to disregard my life and death. As long as she lives well, as long as she lives well, I will What does life and death have to do with her?"

The vinegar in Zhu Zhanji's heart was about to pour out, and he said sourly: "I really can't see that Uncle Huang is still such an infatuated person! I just don't know if you think about her so much, does she still have you in her heart?" ?”

Zhu Gaoxu was vigilant and said: "Whether she has me in her heart has nothing to do with you?! Tell me, where is she now?! What have you done to her?!"

Zhu Zhanji said deliberately: "She is in my hands now. I heard that she is talented, but I think she is mediocre. If there is nothing outstanding, her temper is smelly and disobedient, just kill her!"

Zhu Gaoxu exclaimed: "No! You will regret it only if you kill her! She is indeed worthy of being talented! You don't know, that day"

In order to prevent Zhu Zhanji from killing Li Han, Zhu Gaoxu immediately told all of Li Han's achievements that day.

The more Zhu Zhanji heard it, the more sad it became. It turned out that she had been so kind to him, and she had worked so hard to plan and fight for him!They. They have been in love with each other. No!It's true love if she loves him, it's not like being with him, entering the palace is just being calculated by others.
He looked at Zhu Gaoxu in front of him more and more disgusted, how could this be?It's not good who she loves, but the one she loves is his own uncle!What a crime!

He sneered and said, "Even if the uncle has such affection for her, would he be willing to exchange his life for hers?!"

Zhu Gaoxu was stunned, and after a while he stood up proudly and said, "Why not! If I can exchange my lingering life for her life's safety, I will die immediately!"

Zhu Zhanji said angrily: "What a love is as deep as the sea! Good! Good! Good! But I will not let you get what you want! I will torture her for the rest of her life! Let her regret it!"

Zhu Gaoxu was so angry that he reached out and grabbed Zhu Zhanji and threw him to the ground: "You unbelieving child! If you want to torture her, I will kill you first!"

Zhu Zhanji never thought that Zhu Gaoxu would dare to do anything to the king of his country. He sat on the ground and was stunned. When he saw that Zhu Gaoxu was really going to draw his sword to stab him, he hurried down and rolled down, shouting: "Come on! Escort!"——It turned out that he wanted to ask Zhu Gaoxu about Qingdai, so of course no one could hear him, so this time he was talking to Zhu Gaoxu alone, and all his followers rushed to wait outside the hall, so he was naturally in a state of embarrassment at this time.

The guards were shocked when they heard the sound, and immediately swarmed up, holding Zhu Gaoxu down with all hands and feet. After Zhu Zhanji was lifted up, Liang Guan was also skewed, one of his boots was kicked off, and his palms were scratched Suddenly, his old and new hatred for Zhu Gaoxu exploded: "Rebel! How dare you kill the king! I will kill you! No! I can't let you die so cheaply." He looked around After walking around for a while, suddenly a bright light appeared in his eyes: "Come here! Bring me that copper bell! Cover this traitor! Pile up firewood for me to roast! Aren't you hard-boned? I think you're still tough!" Not hard!" Zhu Gaoxu couldn't curse, but he couldn't stop the guards from rushing to tie him up, and several of them lifted the big bronze bell with great effort, and covered Zhu Gaoxu inside.

Bursts of black smoke rose from the center of the flame, and everyone could still hear Zhu Gaoxu's curses in the bronze bell.
