Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

When I was sweating all over, and almost soaked the clothes inside, Pei Yuanzhang lowered her eyelids slightly, her face became calm again, and she became even tired.

He said, "So, are you here to plead with him?"

I shook my head.

He raised an eyebrow slightly: "Did you not come for him?"

"If it is useful for me to ask for anything, that day, anyone can come to ask for him." I said, and I glanced at the door just closed again. "But if even Tongshan Sijie's asking is useless , Then there are not many people in the world who beg and be useful. "

There was a faint smile on Pei Yuanzhang's face, and there was also a hint of coldness in that smile.

"You know it very well."

"..."

I certainly know very well.

Although I know that he is serious about Liu Qinghan, the relationship between him and me, and Liu Qinghan, after so many years, barely reached a delicate balance. I dare not break this balance at this time. Not even dare to use Liu Qinghan's life at this time to bet his benevolence and challenge his bottom line.

"So, why are you here?"

"I came here a lot. I had a lot of things to say, but now I just want to tell Her Majesty what I have seen and heard during my trip."

"Oh?"

...

I stood in the middle of the room, and even before I sat down, I slowly told Pei Yuanzhang what the people heard on the way, and what they saw as righteous indignation. He didn't speak, so he sat quietly Listening there, after I said it all, he didn't move, but just sat silently.

After I finished speaking, my throat was a little hot and dry, and my voice was getting hoarse, but I insisted: "Everything the Emperor once wanted to achieve in Jiangnan and Yangzhou, Liu Qinghan has done it, and the North and South are just around the corner. "

"..."

"If the emperor were to kill him at this time, what would happen to Yangzhou? What would happen to Jiangnan?"

"..."

"How do people in Yangzhou view the court?"

"How to look at the court?" Pei Yuanzhang's eyes turned cold, and he turned to look at me, and said in a cold voice, "The court sheltered a high-power murderer and let him go free? So, how do people think of the court?"

"Liu Qinghan didn't kill, he couldn't kill his new wife, especially the long princess-he has been so affectionate to him over the years, Liu Qinghan couldn't kill her!" I was anxious, my voice was dumb: " Moreover-- "

"What's more?"

"Moreover," the words have come to my mouth, but I don't feel a little hesitant. The hands hidden in the sleeves slightly clenched the same hard things in the palm, and the original cold texture was also warmed in my palm. "What's more, the concubine Li ...

Before I finished speaking, Pei Yuanzhang's expression changed suddenly and he looked at me.

His eyes are sharp like a knife, and in many cases it will make people feel scared, but at this time, no matter how scared, I can't let myself wince.

At this moment, mentioning Nangong Lizhu and mentioning the events of the year was not a comfortable thing for me, but I still insisted: "At that time, the concubine Lili had once given a gold medal for death prevention in Juma River Valley. .if it is possible--"

Pei Yuanzhang said coldly: "Do you think that the gold medal could save his life?"

My hands tightened tighter: "Can't I?"

He sneered and said, "When the imperial family entered the gate and the world withered, for the sake of listening and hearing, Taizu promulgated the law of this dynasty, the first of which was the death of the killer! In the decades that followed, the law continued to be modified, increased and decreased But this one remains the same! "

"..."

"Even though there have been precedents of death-free gold medals, death-free jade cards, and death-free iron coupons, all amnesties have a prerequisite."

"what?"

"Treason, treason, murderer, no excuse!"

He said, got up from behind the desk case, and slowly walked to the center of the room and looked at me: "What do you think can save him?"

"..."

When I heard him say this, I just felt that the stone on the chest was getting tighter and tighter, and the jade card that had been sweaty in the palm of his hand became nothingness at this moment.

It turned out that it was impossible.

I wanted to use this piece of jade-free jade to avoid his death, but it turned out to be impossible.

Looking at my pale face, Pei Yuanzhang frowned, but he said nothing, and was about to turn around and walked back to the desk case. I suddenly remembered what seemed like, raised his head and said, "The emperor."

He stalled and looked back at me.

I bit my lower lip. Although my voice was low when I opened my mouth, my voice was slightly trembling because of my emotions.

"Emperor, if they can even forgive Mo Tieyi, why not forgive a minister who has done something to the country and to the people?"

"..."

Pei Yuanzhang's complexion suddenly changed.

The hand that I had loosened once again became a fist.

As he slowly turned around and looked at me face-to-face, his breath became tighter.

This matter has passed for so many years. Very few people knew the truth at that time, but now we can only know about us.

So he looked heavy at me.

He certainly understands what I mean, and what I mean by "pardon" is by no means really "pardon".

At that time, Mo Tieyi was assassinated and assassinated Liu Yi. He was also sentenced to beheaded, but in order to restore the relationship between the court and Chang Mingzong, I tried to persuade him to pardon those people. In the end, he used the method of Li Daitao. They were dressed as Mo Tieyi in other death row prisoners, and they had received it, and they were released in private.

Because of that, the situation in Jiangnan was eased to some extent.

Now, I brought this up again, but as soon as I finished speaking, I saw Pei Yuanzhang's face sinking.

I looked at him nervously for a while.

For a long while, he suddenly sneered: "Do you want to use this method to pardon Liu Qinghan and release Liu Qinghan?"

"..."

I bit my lower lip and did not dare to answer this question directly, but instead said in a roundabout way: "His emperor is always sympathetic to the heroes."

"Yeah, meritorious," he said these two words slowly, his eyes cold: "So you can take pride in yourself, even when he was detained, hundreds of people came to ask him for mercy, and Anyone dare to yell for him ?! "

I was suddenly surprised.

Along the way, I saw the respect and regret of Liu Qinghan by the common people, and I also heard the public opinion that greatly benefited him, but I forgot one of the most important things-Emperor Xinjiu.

The emperor's mind is the most difficult to speculate. Although Liu Qinghan is a hero and is the lord of Yin, a favorite of the people in Jiangnan, his popularity in Jiangnan is too high, and it will make the emperor alert him. In addition, these days With so many people coming to court, even Tongshan Sijie appeared, so there are always other officials. I do n’t even doubt that Wen Fengxi will definitely speak. Everyone must say that he contributed to the court, and so on. But the more so, the more fact Pei Yuanzhang sees.

He is in Jiangnan and his popularity is too high.

If an official responded with so many people to support him, then where did the emperor go?

This is in itself the biggest taboo of politicians in all dynasties!

I now propose that he pardoned Mo Tieyi at that time, it was more like uncovering the scars that the emperor was unwilling to show, making the alert in his heart even heavier!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help getting nervous, and didn't dare to speak again easily.

Pei Yuanzhang looked at me nervously and sneered.

But at this time, I couldn't help but speak. I thought for a moment, and then said gently: "Even if the emperor can't believe other people, the Liu family can still believe."

His eyes flickered for a moment.

I said softly again: "Just as a gentleman speaks of righteousness, a villain speaks of profit. Little talents can run for the sake of self-interest, and party and private affairs, but the Liu family and his son have been in Jiangnan all these years, but they have no selfishness and have no life. What other self-interest can touch the hearts of those who surrender? "

"..."

"Her Majesty the Emperor, please."

"..."

Pei Yuanzhang's thin lips narrowed into a line. He still didn't speak, but the chill in his eyes slowly dissipated.

At this time, mentioning the Liu family was the same as the one I had mentioned before, but only he and I could understand.

Liu Shizhou, Liu Yi and his sons have already broken Yangzhou for the imperial court and Jiangnan. Liu Li has always been indifferent, and he has almost never participated in any disputes in the harem. What can he rest assured about such a family?

At this time, I saw his tight shoulders slightly relaxed.

After a long time, he heard a long sigh.

When I heard his sigh, I was relieved.

Then he heard him say, "You're right."

"..."

"A gentleman speaks of righteousness, and a villain speaks of Yuli. The Liu family has done too much for Jiangnan and the great cause, and paid too much."

"His Majesty……"

"However, I came to ask you." He turned sharply, looked up at me, and was suddenly asked by him in such a straightforward manner, and my expression couldn't help but he heard him say, "The last time Mo Tieyi stabbed Liu Yi Fufa was exiled, who was sentenced to death? Who was it that they wanted to die? "

I thought about it: "It was the law that judged them to die; it was Liu Zhaoyi who wished them to die."

"That's right. I ask you again, this time Liu Qinghan pleaded guilty, who sentenced him to death, and who hoped he would die?"

There was a sudden stun in my heart.

When I looked up to look at Pei Yuanzhang, his eyes had become very deep and deep, in such a dimly lit study room, it seemed like a bottomless deep pond.

And there are countless unknown truths.

He stared at me with a burning gaze, and asked again: "It is the law that judges him to die. But who wants him to die?"
