Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 577
After the reconstruction of Taicheng, the scale has been greatly expanded. The Fuzhou Mountain outside the original city wall has also become a part of the city wall, and several new city gates have been added.Inside and outside the newly built Chengyang Gate in the southeast of the city, quite a few people have gathered at the moment, and the focus of sight is the place directly facing the city gate two feet away.

Once the mat was spread on the ground, Shen Zhezi knelt on the mat without a seat under his knees, his coat was untied and folded by his side, and a bundle of dry thorns was tied on his back impressively.The silk robe alone was not enough to keep out the cold, and the thin shirt was tightly attached to the body when the cold wind blew past. It could be clearly seen that the young man's insignificant body was shivering in the cold wind, but he was unmoved. He still held his chest out and sat still.

This scene naturally attracted a large number of people to watch, including the people from Duzhong who had been following the Qinhuai River all the way, and the ministers from Taiwan who heard the news.Seeing Shen Zhezi sitting there alone with Jing Jing in his arms, he was surprised, but each had a different expression, and they each got together with acquaintances and whispered.

"Why does the son-in-law take the blame here? Could it be that he wants to plead guilty on behalf of the prodigal sons in the prison?"

"If you really think so, I'm afraid it will come to nothing. The matter is so serious that Liu Gong personally bound his son to the prison in Taiwan, and he still can't settle the dispute. After all, he killed more than a dozen people, and it was seen by everyone in the country. tragedy..."

All the ministers in Taicheng were whispering. Recently, there have been discussions around this matter in Taiwan. Seeing Shen Zhezi's burden so far, naturally there are different opinions.

"Who else can he plead guilty to? I'm afraid I won't be able to tell the difference. The source of the two parties' chaotic fights is all his heresy! How can the two parties who have been murdered give up? Collect all your grievances on this person, and ask for an explanation!"

There are many commentators in the crowd gloating, and there are many joking and malicious smiles on their faces: "I knew I would suffer today's hardships, so why bother to confuse people the day before! It's too late to regret now, and I can only hurt myself and invite others to die." Sorry."

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted many dissatisfied or unhappy eyes from around, and even the few people standing next to that person subconsciously moved away to distance themselves from each other.

The man was isolated by the crowd, his expression was unavoidably stagnant, and then he boldly argued: "Am I wrong? Random things are elegant, and it is difficult for him to know the taste, but he wants to criticize others with loyalty and virtue. It is self-blame, even if there is no recent incident, such a perverse theory will arouse a lot of resentment!"

"You mediocre man, maybe you haven't heard that the son-in-law mourned his ambitions before! Traveling in the universe, wandering the world, that is the realm of the ultimate talent. The so-called casual interest is just that the mediocre is broad-minded and not enough. It’s just a deception! I’m obsessed with illusory pleasures, and I don’t see the sorrows of the world! My son-in-law has a high standard of interest, and he doesn’t want to share the joy with others, but only wants to share the sorrow with the world!”

A person in the crowd walked out, pointing at the person who spoke earlier and said harshly.

Being denounced as mediocre in front of a group of colleagues, the man's face turned red, he looked left and right to find an ally, and at the same time retorted: "What is the state of the most human beings? ? He was born in the Haozong of Wu Township, how much suffering has he seen in the world? How can he be self-proclaimed?

"Could it be that Your Excellency is able to reach the realm of human beings? What is there to say in a rough world? It is well known that the son-in-law is a young man who is capable. He has fought repeatedly to defeat bandits, and he has worked tirelessly to help others. Compassion in the world can be said to be practiced. Your Excellency is obsessed with the elegant interests of the scattered, and you don’t know if you have seen the fairy trail when you wandered? Why are you still living in this world and can’t travel far away from the fairy!”

After being robbed by someone, that person was speechless, and stood in place for a while, with an extremely stiff expression.

At this time, Wen Qiao and Liu Chao, who came from Xuanyang Gate, also arrived at the scene, got out of the car not far away, and passed through the crowd of onlookers. When they saw Shen Zhezi's appearance, their expressions changed. Don't stop, just walk forward.

"Shen Weizhou, what are you going to do?"

Passing through the guards standing around the Puxi, Wen Qiao went straight to Shen Zhezi, bent over and let out a low growl.On the way here, he had no lack of guesses about Shen Zhezi's purpose here, but seeing the facts turned out to be an apology, which was beyond his several conjectures.He couldn't fully understand his intention for a while, but it didn't prevent him from assuming that this kid had bad intentions with the utmost maliciousness.

Shen Zhezi was a little dizzy from the cold wind, and his reaction was inevitably slower. When he raised his head, Wen Qiao and Liu Chao had already walked in front of him.He bowed his hands in a somewhat slow gesture, this was not a play, his hands and feet were really numb from the cold, and he spoke in a hoarse and weak voice: "There are some shortcomings in words and deeds, I am ashamed to see Er Gong..."

Wen Qiao snorted coldly, took off the fur coat and handed it to Xie Yi who was standing next to him, motioning for Shen Zhezi to put it on first.Xie Yi took the fur coat and looked at Shen Zhezi a little at a loss, seeing that he didn't express anything, he didn't dare to go forward.

"Why did Wei Zhou say this? What you said is absolutely not absurd, so what is the crime? Those libertines are idle and do not learn, and they are full of hostility. They do evil things and should be punished. Why do you blame yourself? Kill your morale!"

Liu Chao comforted Shen Zhezi while bending down to help Shen Zhezi up.

Shen Zhezi evaded sideways, but because of his stiff body, he fell on the mat with thorns protruding from his back, and then drew a bloodstain on his neck.

He struggled to sit up again, and then bowed his hands to the two of them: "Thank you, Er Gong, for your mercy. I am really terrified. Don't ask for merit, and don't take the blame if it's not a crime. Selfish thoughts, there are evil things today, and there is no crime for foolishness. I came today with a thorn in my back, and I didn't punish myself for my crime..."

Hearing this, Wen Qiao already felt a little bad, and seeing Shen Zhezi trembling with blood oozing from his neck, he was indeed a bit pitiful.He stepped forward and gave Xie Yi a sideways glance, grabbed the fur coat with his hands, bent over Shen Zhezi and wrapped it up in front of Shen Zhezi's body: "Since I know I'm not guilty, then there's no need to talk about it. Get up quickly and choose a place to drive out the cold!"

When Shen Zhezi heard this, even if the boss was not happy, how could he give up halfway after a long time of self-torture, struggling and not getting up, but said loudly: "Although there is no crime, I can't feel at ease! Please don't be bad, Mr. Wen!" I am sympathetic..."

When the two stage assistants arrived, the onlookers were already full of curiosity. When they suddenly heard Shen Zhezi's shout, their curiosity became more intense, and they involuntarily approached each other, wanting to hear it more clearly.

Wen Qiao's face darkened immediately when he heard this shout, and he was really ashamed and angry in his heart, so he straightened up and stood aside.

"Wei Zhou, why are you doing this!"

Liu Chao sighed, took Wen Qiao's shift and wrapped the fur coat around Shen Zhezi.Naturally, he also knew that Shen Zhezi's situation in this matter was really hard to say, and his remarks were the direct cause of this brawl. If it was not handled well, the parents of both parties involved would definitely have resentment.Although there are no conclusive charges, there is no way to justify it, which can be described as a deadlock.

Shen Zhezi had been brewing emotions for a long time, and now he didn't need to put on any more gestures. Tears rolled down his eyes: "This is a young man, even if he doesn't want to bow down, he can be a king, but he can still roar in the mountains and fields." , Lonely self-admiration. Why do you have to insist on hard work and fight for yourself! Life and death are big things, and you must not be disrespectful. How lucky am I to be able to let my peers compete with each other! Reputation dare not be light-hearted, ruin dare not hold grudges, both It's just a joke, but the floating clouds regard it. Therefore, the floating clouds' theory, which harms people's early death, is not righteous!"

Speaking of this, Shen Zhezi's tone was already extremely miserable, with tears streaming down his face.

Seeing that Shen Zhezi was heartbroken, all the onlookers showed their sadness on their faces.In particular, there were family members of the victims in the scene, who covered their faces and wept bitterly after hearing the words.Even Wen Qiao, who had made up his mind that Shen Zhezi had bad intentions, was slightly moved when he heard this sobbing, and stopped saying anything, and asked someone to remove the heater from the bullock cart and place it beside Shen Zhezi.

Liu Chao was silent for a moment, then patted Shen Zhezi's trembling shoulders and comforted him in a warm voice: "Wei Zhou, you are a handsome man who is highly regarded by everyone nowadays, so you will naturally be widely appreciated. Since you know what everyone expects, you should use it to encourage yourself and reflect on yourself." Make yourself a role model of virtue among your peers. Don't be ashamed and hurt yourself by the evil deeds of those idlers, ruin your morale, and dim your style!"

"Grand Liu's great reputation, I'm really ashamed of it! Boy, there was no lack of wandering in the past. Fortunately, the king is kind and the princes are tolerant. He has a little bit of reputation, and he has never dared to be proud of himself. The day before yesterday, he fought against the masters, who held the virtuous and the elegant, and were able to walk. Before, dare to be the first in the world. If you can give Jiazi generously and add spring and autumn, how do you know that there are not one or two countries in the city and Qingliu to flaunt?"

Shen Zhezi's tears gradually stopped, and then his eyes became firm: "Now the dead are dead, and the living are waiting for punishment. Even if there is regret, it will not help. The matter is due to me. I dare not lie down to avoid suspicion. Flying to the capital at night, offering a eulogy to the dead, and condolence to the living.”

At this point, Shen Zhezi wanted to make a move, but he almost fell due to the cold numbness, Xie Yi hurriedly rushed up to support him.

"At the moment I am weak and weak, and it is difficult to make a long cry. Please take me to tell the friends in the prison. Although there is a violation of the forbidden rope law, don't be ashamed or worry. Those who know me, fortunately dare not give up, and my son. The same punishment, the same humiliation as the son, righteousness does not walk alone!"

With Xie Yi's support, Shen Zhezi staggered, barely stopped, and then cheered up and said in a deep voice.

When everyone nearby heard this, their shoulders shook suddenly, Xie Yi's eyes were full of light, and he ordered the guards around him to come forward to support the son-in-law, while he himself led a few people to rush to the Chengyang gate, facing the court captain inside the high wall. The prison room shouted: "The son-in-law respectfully tells all the friends in the prison that although there are punishments according to the law, don't take it as shame, don't take it as worry! The same punishment and humiliation, justice does not go alone!"

The voice was passionate and high-pitched, and everyone heard it. After hearing this, everyone present was silent for a moment, and then some people clapped their hands and cheered.

Not long after, there was another echo from the court captain's cell inside the high wall: "If we can share joy, we must share sorrow! Those who harm me are the way of the world! Mountains and rivers are collapsing, and it is difficult to be safe! From the beginning to the virtuous, the rest of my life is very lucky!"

The weather was cold and the days were short, and the setting sun was already in the west. After Shen Zhezi got up, his limbs gradually warmed up, and he got rid of the support of others, and stood alone in front of Chengyang Gate.The golden afterglow fell down, the dome lowered, and even the thorns behind were glowing with a golden halo!

In Ting Wei's cell, the young people shouted hoarsely for a long time.Not only resounded on the spot, but also spread to the deepest part of Taicheng.The many spectators present couldn't help but be overwhelmed with anger and awe by God!
