Clear clothes and immortals

Chapter 275 Shuxuan's doubts

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor's edict said: Today, there is an internal minister, Hesheli Suo'etu, who accepts bribes privately, forms a party for personal gain, and is really a cancer of the Qing Dynasty. I have decided to remove him from all positions and enclose him in the clan's mansion. He will never leave for life." , hereby!"

A few days later, a group of young eunuchs came out of the palace with Kangxi's imperial decree and walked to various places in the capital.

The people who came to the Hesheli clan were brought by Liang Jiugong himself. When Suo Etu saw Liang Jiugong and the Imperial Forest Army behind him, he felt that something was wrong.

Sure enough, when he knelt down and listened to Liang Jiugong recite the imperial decree, he slumped on the ground as if all his strength had been drained.

He knew that Kangxi would not let him go easily this time, but he did not expect that Kangxi would investigate all the things he had done. In this way, not only him, but other people in the Hesheli family would also be punished. Get involved!

It's just that Suo'etu never thought as much as Kangxi did. Before Suo'etu finished thinking, he saw Liang Jiugong take another imperial edict from the eunuch following behind him, which was written by other members of his family. guilt.

Moreover, he also saw that the little eunuch still had more than one copy of imperial decree left in his hands. With this situation, Kangxi is going to take over the entire Hesheli clan this time!

The more Suo'etu thought about it, the paler his face became, but Suo'etu couldn't figure it out, didn't Kangxi love the prince the most?Their Hesheli clan belonged to the mother clan of the prince. If Kangxi dealt with them all like this, wouldn't he be worried that the prince would have no reliance in the future and would be ruled by others?

What Suo'etu didn't know was that there were many similar edicts in other places.

Since Kangxi investigated so many crimes except Suo'etu, almost all the ministers who were exposed in this incident were investigated by Kangxi.

The result is naturally infuriating. According to Kangxi's investigation results, none of these ministers are clean. They are corrupt and accept bribes, buying and selling officials. They simply regard his official position in the court as Chinese cabbage in the vegetable market. , bargain there.

After Kangxi knew the result, he almost died of anger.

So the perpetrators this time, except for the Hesheli family who were imprisoned by Kangxi because of their old love for the former empress, the others were basically sentenced to death, and they were just waiting to pick a day to deport them. All chopped up.

The gates of these officials who were exposed to commit crimes were almost always guarded by the common people. When they saw the eunuchs in the palace coming to announce the decree, and then the Imperial Forest Army took them away one by one, the common people were shocked at first, and then ecstatic.

Although they have been clamoring for Kangxi to punish these officials severely these days, they also know that there have always been conflicts between the common people and the officials, and in the end it was the common people who suffered, so they have no confidence in whether these officials will be punished this time. .

And after Kangxi came back, he never responded to this matter, which further confirmed their thoughts.

The reason why they are still making noise like this is just to find out the anger that has been suppressed in their hearts for so long.

But what they didn't expect was that today they suddenly saw a group of Imperial Forest Army arresting these officials who had been scolded by them for so long.

These ordinary people were stunned. None of them thought that Kangxi, who they thought wanted to drag this matter over, would actually send someone to investigate this matter, and after investigating these things clearly, he directly Take people away.

The common people felt that it was really wrong for them to doubt Kangxi before, so after those officials were taken away, these common people knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of the palace.

While kowtowing, they apologized to Kangxi, saying that they misunderstood Kangxi before, and praised Kangxi for his wisdom and wisdom, saying that he was a rare and good emperor.

Kangxi, who was waiting for the eunuchs to return to their orders in Qianqing Palace, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly when he heard the words of the secret guard who came back to report the common people's reaction to him first.

He also didn't expect that it was just because these people formed a clique for selfish interests and threatened him to control the court, so he thought about eradicating them at this opportunity, but he got the gratitude and love of the people, which is really a surprise. Happy.

There was no sign of Kangxi’s series of orders before, and then so many people were suddenly locked up. Some people who couldn’t see the situation clearly submitted memorials to those people to intercede, but in Kangxi, a few intercedents were sent together. After being locked up, no one dared to intercede again.

All of a sudden, people in the imperial court were panicked. None of them knew why Kangxi would suddenly become so angry, so they all shrank back. Every day when they went to court, they wished they could shrink themselves up and let Kangxi pay attention. less than them.

...

ten days later
Those who were arrested and sentenced to death before were all dragged to the execution ground on this day for execution.

Early in the morning, people surrounded the execution ground, and they were all discussing excitedly. Even though many people did not have any hatred for these people who were about to be beheaded, it did not prevent them from scolding these people a few times. sentence.

Shuxuan was sitting on a roof not far from the execution ground, and seeing the time when the beheading was about to come, she first absorbed the aura around the execution ground to ensure that these people would not re-condense their souls after death.

After all, she promised her mother that she would not let her see the person who killed her again, so it is impossible to break her promise.

After finishing this, Shuxuan didn't bother to stay to see the result, so she left directly.

...

"Master, are you unhappy?"

After Shuxuan came back from the execution ground, she sat alone on a remote roof in the palace in a daze.

At this time, Qiuqiu flew out of Shuxuan's head and asked with concern.

Qiuqiu had been in seclusion before, and he just woke up not long ago, but he has not said anything, consolidating his breakthrough in this retreat.

It's just that just now, he suddenly sensed that Shuxuan's mood suddenly became very strange, and even he was affected.

Sensing this situation, he was very worried, so he went out to check the situation, but as soon as he came out, he saw Shuxuan sitting on the roof with a confused face.

"Qiaoqiu? You came out? How do you feel now? What have you gained from this retreat?"

Shu Xuan saw Qiuqiu coming out, her eyes lit up and she asked.

"Master, I'm fine, but you, what happened to you? I can feel that your thoughts are confused in the space. What happened?"

Qiuqiu flew to Shuxuan, frowning and asked.

"Qiaoqiu, I'm fine, don't think too much."

Shuxuan shook her head lightly and said.

"How can it be all right? I can sense it in the space."

Seeing that Shuxuan was unwilling to say anything, Qiuqiu immediately became anxious. He hurriedly flew in front of Shuxuan and asked, "Master, is it because your mother died that you are unhappy?"

"No, Qiuqiu, I told you I'm fine, don't think about it, okay?"

Shu Xuan watched Qiuqiu so anxiously flying in the air that his wings were almost knotted, she couldn't help being a little funny, but seeing him like this, Shu Xuan felt warm in her heart, it's a good feeling that someone cares about him!

"Master, don't be too sad. Mrs. Liu is just a mortal. Birth, old age, sickness and death are normal things. You will always be separated. What those bad guys are doing now is just to advance the result. I have already avenged Mrs. Liu!"

Looking at the smile on Shuxuan's face, Qiuqiu thought she was forcing a smile, so she continued to comfort her.

"Qiaoqiu, I'm really not sad, I just feel a little strange."

Shuxuan didn't want Qiuqiu to misunderstand her again, but she didn't figure out why she had such strange emotions.

"Master, what's wrong with you? If you have any questions, you can talk to Qiuqiu! Qiuqiu can help you with ideas!"

Qiuqiu flew in front of Shuxuan, and looked at her worriedly. Qiuqiu has been with Shuxuan for so many years, but she has never seen Shuxuan like this before!

"There is no problem. You know that my mother just died, and my mother has always been very kind to me before, and I also regard her as my relatives in my heart, but this time my mother died. I was a little shocked at the beginning, but I didn’t feel anything afterwards.”

Perhaps it was because she had held it in her heart for a long time, but Shuxuan also had the desire to confide in Qiuqiu's question, so she told Qiuqiu all her doubts.

"Huh? Is that so?"

Hearing Shuxuan's doubts, Qiuqiu frowned and thought for a while, then his eyes lit up and he said, "Master, could it be because you are an immortal cultivator, and this immortal cultivator is relatively indifferent to feelings, and you know you You are destined to be separated from your mother, so you can treat your mother's death so calmly!"

"That's not the case. Although I knew that my mother and I would part in the end, it doesn't mean I won't be sad at all?"

"Although this immortal cultivator is relatively indifferent, it's not that he has no feelings. But after my mother died this time, he didn't have much feelings for me. At most, he knew that she was killed by others, and my father When I wanted to side with the suspects who poisoned me, I felt very angry, and I wanted to arrest all those who participated in this incident and make them pay for their actions."

"But after the initial anger, I quickly calmed down again, and then dealt with the rest of the matter calmly, without any other emotions. This is really not right."

Shuxuan did not deny Qiuqiu's statement, but she knew very well that her calmness was definitely not due to any weak feelings, but a reason she did not know.

It is precisely because she has been unable to figure out what the reason is, which makes her very uneasy, so her mood swings are so strong, and Qiuqiu can sense it.

"I don't know, I've never encountered such a situation before!"

After hearing Shuxuan's thoughts, Qiuqiu felt very helpless. Although he lived for an unknown number of years, he was only a spirit body, living alone all the time, and everything he knew automatically appeared in his mind. Yes, regarding Shuxuan's current situation, he really had no way to understand it based on what he knew.

"Okay, don't think about it if you don't know. Anyway, I'm fine, but I'm just a little confused. I'll go to sleep later."

Shuxuan looked at Qiuqiu's distressed little face, and couldn't bear to let his small head think about such a complicated issue of human emotions. Anyway, her thoughts are not complicated. Even if she is a little confused now, she believes in her. Will soon be able to just put it aside.

Just like in the previous life, she did good deeds but was killed by mistake. When she became a soul body and bored, she also struggled with this problem. I don’t want to use her appearance at that time to make a show Out of the man who damned her.

At that time, she was much more entangled than now, but she just entangled with it for a long time and gave up this idea, and quickly adjusted her thoughts, and completely let go of that matter.

Although she is a little entangled now, she is not the one who was alone in her previous life. She has so many people around her now, how can she be immersed in this inexplicable entangled emotion?

"really?"

Qiuqiu looked at Shuxuan in disbelief. He had never heard of anyone recovering from such a strange mood after sleeping?
"Of course! When have I ever lied to you?"

Shuxuan smiled at Qiuqiu and said, "My sudden change of mood this time should have disturbed you too, right?"

"No, no, I'm just sorting out some of my previous retreat experience, it doesn't matter if I come out like this."

Qiuqiu was afraid that Shuxuan would blame herself for disturbing him, so she quickly shook her head and said.

"That's good. Then you'd better go back and continue sorting out your experience! I'm really fine here."

"Then master, I'll go back first?"

Qiuqiu looked at Shuxuan and said with some uncertainty.

Seeing Shuxuan's affirmative gaze, he waved his wings and disappeared into Shuxuan's hair.

After Qiuqiu went back, Shuxuan stood up and looked around the palace, then disappeared on the roof, and when she reappeared, she had already returned to Jingren Palace.

"Sister, are you finally back?"

When Shuxuan came back, Liu Shuxue was waiting in the hall of her palace, when she saw her coming back, she quickly stood up and asked.

"What are you doing here?"

Shuxuan looked at Liu Shuxue suspiciously. If she remembers correctly, she is still under confinement, and no one is allowed to visit her. Liu Shuxue came to her in such a bold manner, and she is not afraid that Kangxi will give birth to her. angry?
"Actually, it's all right? I just remember that today is the day when those people were beheaded. I thought my sister would definitely go to see it today, so I wanted to ask my sister if everything went well?"

Liu Shuxue looked at Shuxuan, smiled embarrassedly and said.

"Are you still interested in this kind of gossip?"

Shuxuan looked at Liu Shuxue suspiciously, and asked as if suddenly thinking, "Don't you think that this situation will still be like the one in the TV drama, at a critical moment, someone will stand up and call for the knife to keep someone, and then At this time, take out something to rescue them?"

After Shuxuan finished speaking, she nodded, as if confirming her guess.

After all, they all traveled from the modern era and were severely abused by TV dramas, and the person whose head was going to be beheaded this time was not an ordinary person. It was reasonable for Liu Shuxue to have such worries.
