My Brother-in-law is the Prince

  Chapter 281 Cut to pieces

  Zhang Anshi led Yiwang Zhu out of the palace.

  Zhang Anshi said as he walked: "In the past few days, don't go back to the government school first. In the past few days, you will help me when entering and leaving the palace."

  Zhu nodded and let out an oh.

  He looked downcast.

  Zhang Anshi comforted: "Let's go, it's time for us to meet the culprit."

   The culprit…

  Zhu showed doubts.

  Zhang Anshi went all the way to Qixia, and then under the guidance of Chen Li, he entered the Imperial Prison.

  In the imperial prison, the detainees are already overcrowded.

   Now that the roster was obtained, then...Jin Yiwei began to search for the rest of the backbone.

  Of course, ordinary congregants do not need to be arrested, but some key personnel must be caught.

   As for how to deal with it in the future, it is a matter of two opinions.

  Li Xizhou was already bruised and bruised all over his body. He had a grim face. He was hung up in the air, muttering to himself, as if he was chanting scriptures.

  For some reason, Zhang Anshi wanted to laugh whenever this guy recited scriptures.

  Yi Wang Zhu looked up at Li Xizhou, and said in his mouth, "President Xi, what is he reading?"

   "It should be a curse on us, are you afraid?"

  Yiwang Zhu said very honestly: "I'm only afraid of the fist of the emperor's brother."

  Zhang Anshi asked someone to move a chair, and then sat down in front of Li Xizhou.

  He looked at the dying Li Xizhou, frowned and said, "Why are you so ruthless, don't beat people to death."

  Chen Li who stood aside was ashamed, and hurriedly said: "Yes, I must pay attention next time when I am humble."

  Zhang Anshi said: "If there is any danger to life, you must call a good doctor in time, and you must also take medicine in time. No matter how much it costs, people must be saved."

  Chen Lidao: "The doctors in this prison are all the best. Being humble is not bragging. The imperial doctors in the palace are not as good as them."

  Zhang Anshi scolded: "You are good and don't learn, but you want to compare yourself with the bad?"

  Chen Li said with a look of bewilderment: "Ah...this..."

  Zhang Anshi immediately looked at Li Xizhou, and asked Yi Wangzhu: "You probably already know the facts of the case. Let me tell you, this person in front of you...how can I get him to speak?"

  Zhu Que said: "President Xi, don't be a fool."

  Zhang Anshi smiled, walked around with his hands behind his back, and said, "Li Xizhou, do you still recognize me?"

  Li Xizhou tried his best to open his swollen eyes, looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "I know him even when he turns into ashes."

  Zhang Anshidao: "Are you going to explain the things in the palace?"

  Li Xizhou shook his head, he said hysterically: "I won't say it, time is running out, if you let my family go...maybe...there is still a chance..."

  Zhang Anshi smiled slightly and said, "Your family...is impossible to survive."

  Li Xizhou said: "Then let's die together."

  Zhang Anshi mockingly said: "To die together, what do you use to die with us? Do you think that relying on the Jin family, you are qualified to die together?"

  As soon as this remark came out, Li Xizhou's face changed, he shuddered, and stared at Zhang Anshi suddenly: "You...how did you know?"

  Zhang Anshi looked at him contemptuously and said: "How can you hide your little trick from others? If you want people to know, you have to do it yourself! Look, now you and your family have one more crime."

  Li Xizhou trembled again involuntarily. Since he came here, he has been executed repeatedly. He still has obsessions in his heart. He just feels... as long as he still has something in his hands, maybe there is still a chance, the court will compromise with him.

  And now... even the last bit of hole cards are gone.

  He burst into tears: "Hey...Since Shengyu and Shengliang, how did it come to this point."

  His voice became more and more sad, and then he gritted his teeth, and suddenly sighed in despair: "Hey..."

   He sighed.

Zhang Anshi looked at him, with a trace of curiosity on his face, and said, "I've always wondered, why...you can give orders to so many Bailian Taoists in the world when you are in a small county? You pretending to be a ghost Trick, people around you, do you really believe it?"

  Li Xizhou... It seems that because the psychological defense line has collapsed, all thoughts have been lost at this time, and he just said intermittently: "It's not because people believe it or not. It's because many people in the world hope to have such a person."

  Zhang Anshi stared at Li Xizhou, he was silent, waiting with bated breath for him to continue.

Li Xizhou said: "It's like, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Han Shantong and Liu Futong were the same. Don't many people know that they were pretending to be gods and ghosts? They buried stone men and preached that the stone man had one eye, and this thing came out of the world Reverse, does it really mean that everyone believes it? Heh...Actually...It's just that everyone thinks against it, because everyone thinks against it, so some people pretend to be gods and tricks, so people all over the world follow them and believe in their words."

Zhang Anshi was silent for a while thoughtfully, and then said: "You are too exalted. Compared with people like Liu Futong and Han Shantong, you are far behind. They are pretending to be ghosts in order to resist, but you are just It's money-grabbing."

Li Xizhou said: "The number of ways is the same. Even if Han Shantong and Liu Futong are alive in this world, they may not be able to call many people to rebel with their original methods. The same reason, if I only used it to promote it at that time, I I'm afraid the White Lotus Sect is far less popular than the White Lotus Sect they spread."

  Zhang An Shidao: "It makes sense."

Li Xizhou went on to say: "I'm just following the hearts of the people. Ordinary people, by saving money and clothing, offered their belongings and gave them to me in exchange for their peace of mind. But those Bailian Taoists in all states and counties in the world are worried about themselves. The tenants under my hand are always dissatisfied with the rent or for other reasons, causing trouble."

"Thus, with the White Lotus Sect, these local tyrants gave me money, and I asked them to be the White Lotus Taoist. With this status, the tenants below have no complaints. Not only do they dare not care about the rent , Even if it’s a holiday, they still have to save money and send their belongings to this Taoist Bailian’s home to show their piety.”

Li Xizhou paused, and continued: "In the end, it's just your Four Books and Five Classics. In order to make yourself different from others, you pretend to be profound. What these Four Books and Five Classics violate is just the same as the current Zen and Taoism. The problem is that he is self-styled, and regards these profound and obscure things as his capital to distinguish himself from the common people. Don't look at what the government usually says about enlightenment and enlightenment, but ordinary people can't understand a word of what the gentry and scholars say. It’s hard to even speak.”

  Li Xizhou was coughing desperately at this moment, he seemed to be in extreme pain all over his body, and his face was wrinkled into a ball.

After a while, he said again: "It is true that this can teach people... to be complacent and self-satisfied, but the downside is that the common people are always restless, and if they refuse to settle down, it will inevitably make people uneasy. My White Lotus Sect, It is for those ignorant people to listen to, and the people believe that, then the powerful and wealthy households in those places, even the gentry and scholars, are willing to get a Bailian Taoist, it is easy and labor-saving, and there are benefits, why not do it?"

   "As for those local governments, one thing more is worse than one thing less. So... even without me, without this White Lotus Sect, there will still be other people, and other things will come out."

Zhang Anshi sneered, and said: "It's really a good idea. I didn't expect that a so-called White Lotus Sect would count everyone's hearts. In this way, those local parents and officials, as well as local school officials, are all It's a wine bag and a rice bag, and it's not even as good as you liars."

  Zhang Anshi had to admit that this Li Xizhou was definitely an expert in playing tricks.

Li Xizhou's face was extremely ugly, but he insisted: "This is different. Those people... rely on the Four Books and Five Classics to become officials. What does it matter to them whether they educate the people or not? But we are different. We have nothing. If we don't have the ability to let others Take our word for it, and it will be nothing."

  Zhang Anshi said: "It makes sense."

After speaking, Zhang Anshi stood up, but he said calmly: "You have committed a heinous crime, and now you have finally said a few words. The reason why I came here is to tell you that you have no cards left. In the next three You will suffer a lot in 2010, and after three years, it will not be too late to kill you. You have just said so many words, it can be seen that you are a very smart person, but a person who is too smart, but puts these Smart, if you use it on such a heinous thing, then... you must bear the consequences."

  After saying the last words, Zhang Anshi walked out of the execution room, and confessed: "From now on, the attack should be serious, so as not to kill you."

   After finishing speaking, he left the cell without looking back.

  Standing outside the cell, after he let out a long breath, Yiwang Zhu came out, and Zhang Anshi said, "Do you know why I brought you here?"

  Zhu shook his head.

  Zhang Anshidao: "After watching it, how do you feel?"

   "Scary." Zhu honestly replied.

"Of course it's scary." Zhang Anshi said: "But since Jinyiwei has to face such things, people can't stay in the greenhouse all the time. In this world, there are always people who face the darkness. It's not you, it's someone else. This official school, Are you still reading it?"

  Zhu said without hesitation, "Read."

   "Why?"

   Zhang Anshi seemed a little surprised that this guy was so straightforward.

   "Although it's scary, it's also exciting." Zhu said.

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

  Zhang Anshi immediately said: "After graduating from the official school, do you plan to join Jinyiwei?"

   "Me?" Zhu looked surprised, and then said: "I'm afraid the emperor won't allow it."

  Zhang Anshi said: "As long as you insist on going your own way, His Majesty can't do anything to you, can he still beat you to death?"

  Zhu Dao: "Then I'll go and tell Brother Huang that the head teacher admires me very much and hopes that I will stay in Jinyiwei."

  Zhang Anshi's eyes widened immediately, and he scolded: "You are not worthy to be my student."

  Zhu drooped his head and said aggrievedly: "I am willing to stay, I like being in the school, and I hope to stay in Weili like my classmates in the future."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Then let's talk about it at that time, but...the reason why I showed you this is another reason. What do you think when you see this person?"

   "He harmed the emperor's wife, so naturally I can't wait to tear him to pieces."

   "Chop into pieces?" Zhang Anshi looked at him teasingly and said, "I'll give you a knife, are you really willing to chop him into pieces?"

  Zhu nodded seriously: "Really."

  Zhang Anshi also became serious, and said: "But have you ever thought that cutting people into pieces is addictive."

   "Addicted?"

  Zhang An Shidao; "A person will become more and more violent after experiencing blood."

  Zhu seemed puzzled: "But isn't that what Jin Yiwei does?"

"Jin Yiwei is helping the world and killing non-officials. Is that what he did?" Zhang Anshi said angrily, "If Jin Yiwei is regarded as a violent machine, then it is no different from Ji Gang, but it is used to eliminate dissidents. In the end Violence will overwhelm reason, and it will become more and more indiscriminate between right and wrong!"

   "Do you hope that Jinyiwei will become like this in the end?"

  Zhu immediately shook his head, but said: "But there is no other way."

"It is necessary to let people face the darkness, but also to have a bright side." Zhang Anshi's tone gradually became calm: "So I have a plan, to promote some hobbies in Weili and government schools, so that people can participate in it." , such as kicking cuju, playing chess, or other recreational activities. In this way, after a tense killing, it is rare to relax and relieve such violence. But everything is difficult at the beginning, and we must encourage everyone to do it like this..."

Zhang Anshi paused, and then said: "I've been thinking about it, and I want to hold some competitions in Weili and the school, such as chess games, or Cuju competitions, or some Weili people's calligraphy exhibitions. In addition, we need to set up an internal publication, which is responsible for collecting the deeds of some guards and writing them into articles. There are both praises and criticisms, and we are also willing to accept contributions from guards and schools. , It is to cultivate interest, to separate **** work and peaceful interest."

   "Oh." Zhu nodded: "So that's the case, but... what does this have to do with me?"

  Zhang An Shidao: "You have good eyes and ears, you can help me find out in the school and in the Weili, what other hobbies do you all have, of course they must be healthy hobbies."

  Zhu thought for a while, but asked, "What is a healthy hobby?"

  Zhang Anshi said patiently: "It's a good hobby."

   "I understand. Why didn't the chief teacher say earlier, leave it to me, I can handle it properly." Zhu said, patted his chest.

  Zhang Anshi said: "Okay, let's go back to school."

  Zhu let out a cry, turned around and walked a few steps, but suddenly stopped and turned around. At this moment, he burst into tears: "President Xi..."

  Zhang Anshi said: "What is it?"

   "Sister-in-law... will be fine, right?"

  Zhang Anshi pursed his lips, but did not answer immediately.

  Zhu seemed to have grown up a lot all of a sudden. He looked at Zhang Anshi and seemed to understand something, so he turned and left.

  ...

  Zhang An Shi went back home.

  Seeing Xu Jingyi, who was also pregnant with Liujia, Zhang Anshi couldn't help but said with fear: "Hey...so I always said that one must be careful in life. It seems that I was right to be cautious all these years."

  Xu Jingyi is about to give birth, probably because she is going to be a mother, she seems to be more gentle and easy-going.

  After hearing Zhang Anshi's nonsensical words, she asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Anshi shook his head, and didn't say anything about the palace. He was afraid that she would be worried, so he changed the topic and said, "You have to be careful these few days, the baby is about to be born, but... I might be busy these few days, At that time... I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it."

  Xu Jingyi smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, husband, I can take care of myself, besides, there are so many people watching."

  Zhang Anshi couldn't help but said: "It's really a tiger father without a dog girl."

  Xu Jingyi said: "What?"

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just thought of Lord Taishan."

   There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Zhang Anshi entered the palace to have an audience.

  As soon as the person arrived at the Meridian Gate, he saw the **** waiting here.

  When the **** saw Zhang Anshi, he hurriedly said: "Duke Wei, Your Majesty has an order that Duke Wei go straight into the palace."

  Zhang Anshi nodded tacitly, hurried to Da Nei, and trotted to Empress Xu's bedroom.

  Outside the sleeping hall, Imperial Physician Xu was looking forward to it, waiting for Zhang Anshi to come.

"how?"

   "It's still the same." Doctor Xu said: "I've been listening to the fetal heart rate all night...but it's been around eighty times... Your Majesty also feels a little uncomfortable..."

  Physician Xu lowered his voice.

  Actually, he is no longer a doctor, but a medical officer, that is, he manages the medical clinics of the world.

   But now, he has to come when he should come. Every time he comes to the palace to see a doctor for the nobles, he feels frightened. Only when he sees Zhang Anshi can he feel at ease.

  Zhang Anshi nodded, and then entered the sleeping hall together with Imperial Physician Xu.

  Zhu Di met Zhang Anshi and said, "You come, the others step down."

  The Imperial Physician Xu hurriedly left the palace with other eunuchs and maids as if he had received an amnesty.

  Zhang Anshi stepped forward, saluted first, and then said, "Is your lady alright?"

  Zhu Di sighed and said in a low voice, "She just fell asleep."

   As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Empress Xu, her voice became softer: "She also feels the child in her belly... Tell me, what is the worst outcome of the current situation?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "The worst result is that both the big and the small can't be kept."

  As soon as these words came out, Zhu Di gasped, and his face turned pale instantly.

  He restrained himself hard, still whispered: "What about a better result?"

   "Find a way...to keep the empress." Zhang Anshi said.

  After Zhu Di listened, his Adam's apple rolled: "Is the child lost?"

  Zhang Anshi could only remain silent.

  Zhu Di desolately said: "Hey... she has a child in old age, she has suffered so much, and finally made it to this day, I don't know how sad she should be."

  Zhang An Shidao: "Actually, I am also worried about this."

"you say."

  Zhang An Shidao: "The empress and even the lover, after being hit like this now, they must be depressed. In addition... During the treatment process, the body is afraid that it will not be good. Under this double blow..."

  He didn't go on, but the meaning was self-evident.

  Zhu Di folded his hands behind his back, and he nodded subconsciously. Of course he knew what Zhang Anshi meant. Empress Xu's health was not good, and coupled with the pain of losing her son, her heart was depressed. This was definitely a fatal blow.

  Zhu Di said: "Anyway, you find a way... come up with a charter, I... hope she..."

  Zhu Di suddenly became gentle when he said this: "I hope she is fine."

   "Ahem..."

   A clear cough interrupted Zhu Di and Zhang Anshi's words.

  Both Zhang Anshi and Zhu Di looked at the phoenix couch in the distance.

   "Your Majesty, I have something to say." Empress Xu spoke suddenly.

   It turned out that she didn't sleep at all, and the reason she "slept down" was because she was afraid that Zhu Di would be worried, but in fact, she heard everything from Zhang Anshi entering the palace to the whispering with Zhu Di.

  Zhu Di hurried forward and said, "What's wrong?"

  Empress Xu on the couch waved to Zhang Anshi. She sat up, leaned on the pillow, stared at Zhang Anshi and said, "Zhang Qing's family, can the child be kept?"

  She asked very seriously, Zhu Di looked on, his face suddenly became ugly.

   Zhu Di knows Empress Xu best. Empress Xu is a very assertive person. She is said to be stubborn on weekdays, but once Empress Xu has made up her mind, even Zhu Di can't hold her back.

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look into Empress Xu's eyes.

  Empress Xu said: "Zhang Qing's family, if you speak bluntly, there is no need to hide anything."

  Zhang Anshi had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "The child is still young...and...at this time... already in danger in the belly, minister...chen..."

   "In other words, it's not hopeless?"

   "There will be danger." Zhang Anshi said: "And even if you can be born, there is no guarantee..."

  Zhang Anshi felt that this was cruel, and he couldn't say it anymore.

  Empress Xu closed her eyes, pondered for a moment, and said, "Is Jingyi okay now? The baby should be born by this time."

  Zhang Anshi nodded.

   "Hey, you guys don't know what it's like to be a mother. If it's Jingyi, you will definitely understand what I mean."

  Zhang Anshi only drooped his head, as if he was being reprimanded.

Empress Xu continued: "In the early years, I gave birth to three sons and four daughters for Your Majesty. Now... the youngest child has grown up. Now... I am pregnant again, maybe it is because of my age, so... I always feel This pregnancy was extremely hard. But no matter how hard it was, I didn't complain, because, these days, I always look forward to seeing this child..."

  Zhu Di looked sad, and said: "What are you talking about now, hey..."

  Empress Xu said: "Zhang Qing's family is capable, if...the child has a slight chance of surviving, please also Zhang Qing's family, don't give up."

  She stretched out her hand all of a sudden, took Zhang Anshi's hand, and said kindly: "I hope Zhang Qing can understand my feelings."

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly said: "Yes, yes."

  Empress Xu immediately let go of Zhang Anshi's hand, smiled and said: "Zhang Qing is the most promising among the younger generation, so... I will say what I have to say, after all, Zhang Qing will make up his mind."

  Zhang Anshidao: "Chen...Chen, go and think about a charter first."

   As he spoke, he gave Zhu Di a look.

  Zhu Di got up, and the two left the hall one after the other.

  As soon as he came out, Zhu Di said: "This is the benevolence of a woman, Zhang Qing..."

  Zhang Anshidao: "Your Majesty... I am thinking..."

  Zhu Di calmed down, sighed and said, "Speak."

  Zhang An Shidao: "I am thinking... once the child is gone, whether the empress can bear it. It has always been...she is not in good health, and her spirit is not very good..."

  Zhu Di rarely looked powerless, and sighed: "Then what do you think?"

   "There may be some danger." Zhang Anshi said: "And the minister is actually not too sure."

  Zhu Di slightly opened his eyes and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

  Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty himself just said..."

  Zhu Di pressed his hands and said worriedly: "How sure are you?"

   "Five to sixty percent." Zhang Anshi said: "But the danger of the empress has also increased by a few percent."

  Zhu Di stared at Zhang Anshi, but hesitantly said, "Actually, I can't make up my mind now..."

  He appears anxious.

  Thus, while looking around, Zhu Di saw Imperial Physician Xu who was trying to hide himself in the corner.

  Zhu Di said: "You come."

   "Yes." Imperial physician Xu failed to hide, so frightened, he hurried forward and saluted: "Mr...."

  Zhu Di said: "You heard the words, what do you think?"

  Physician Xu said: "Chen...Chen..."

  Zhu Di said: "You are a great medical officer, can't you even come up with such an idea? What use do I want you to be?"

  Zhu Di shouted loudly.

  Physician Xu hugged his head subconsciously.

   It doesn't matter if you don't hug, but if you hug, Zhu Di can't hold back anymore.

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, forget it, forget it, this is not the time to do this."

  Zhu Di took a deep breath and said, "Then you have to find a way."

  Zhang Anshi gritted his teeth: "Then give it a try. If something really happens to the empress, it's a big deal... I will bear the blame."

  Zhu Di said: "Since you have made up your mind, then give it a try..."

  He was silent for a moment: "It's not your turn to bear this crime, just teach this bird man to bear it. If there is any mistake, I will cut him."

  Zhu Di pointed.

   This finger miraculously landed on Dr. Xu's body.

  Physician Xu only felt his eyes go dark.

   "Since that's the case, then we must make preparations quickly, Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

  Zhu Di said: "The people in the palace are all at your command, and these imperial physicians..."

  Zhu Di paused: "I don't understand the matter of having a baby, so I can only rely on you."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Yes."

  Zhang Anshi took a deep breath. Right now, there is actually no other way, that is to start production in advance.

   And early production... At least in this era, it is very dangerous.

  If it is in later generations, the solution is very simple, just have a caesarean section.

   But laparotomy is obviously too dangerous in this era. After all, this is not appendectomy. If Zhang Anshi is given ten or twenty years, it can actually be solved step by step technically.

   Right now...the only way...is to go the other way.

  Zhang Anshi winked at Imperial Physician Xu.

  Physician Xu was still in place.

  Zhang Anshi coughed: "Doctor Xu..."

  Physician Xu came back to his senses, so he hurriedly followed Zhang Anshi to the corner.

   "Duke Wei, do you really have a solution?"

   "There is a way, it's a bit dangerous, and there's also a huge problem." Zhang Anshi said: "It's just a bit of a taboo, think about it, we are two big men."

  Physician Xu took a deep breath, then stared at Zhang Anshi and said, "Don't worry about it, Mr. Wei, to be precise, I'm actually not a man anymore."

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

  Physician Xu lowered his head and said, "Old man...have been inhumane for many years, and you know...you're getting old."

   "But I think you are only over forty years old."

  Physician Xu coughed: "Let's not worry about this for now, don't talk about it, don't talk about it."
