I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan

Chapter 56 Doctor Yuan, I'm Sorry... (Mid-Autumn Festival Addition)
Back in the mansion, before Shentujia remembered his porter, Yuan Ang's figure anxiously pacing in his gazebo appeared in Shentujia's field of vision.

After stopping at the gate of the mansion for a while, and thinking about it in secret, Shen Tujia finally adjusted his face before walking forward.

"Doctor Yuan."

With a soft cry, Shentu Jia bowed to Yuan An again, but before he could withdraw his saluting hand from his chest, Yuan An anxiously stepped forward and grabbed Shentu Jia's wrist!

"Prime Minister!"

"—What happened last night?!"

"Chao Cuo thief..."

"Cough cough!"

Before Yuan An finished speaking, Shen Tujia hurriedly let out a few extremely deliberate dry coughs, forcibly interrupting Yuan An's continuation;
When Yuan Ang looked at him in confusion, Shen Tujia withdrew his hand without a trace, came to the gazebo with a gloomy expression, and sat down slowly.

Seeing Shentu Jia's reaction, Yuan An also sensed that something was wrong. Although his heart was still full of urgency, he could only force himself to calm down and sat down in front of Shentu Jia.

"Prime Minister?"

A whisper full of loneliness, but it didn't attract Shen Tujia's attention;

Shentujia lowered his head, pondered for a moment, raised his head again, and sighed.

In the end, Shentu Jia slowly closed his eyes, and in front of Yuan An, he knelt and sat in the gazebo, assuming a posture of closing his eyes and resting his mind.

"The old man's objection has always been only the "Strategy for Reducing Fans";"

"As long as we can prevent the implementation of the "Policy to Cut Fans", the old man Yu Chao Cuo will not have any grudges."

"On the other hand, Doctor Yuan, ever since the time of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, he and Chao Cuo have been in conflict with each other, and have deep personal grievances."

After a long time, Shen Tujia said something without warning, causing Yuan An to raise his head in astonishment;

"Now, this old man has completely angered His Majesty because of this incident."

"At this point, Doctor Yuan, do you still expect to use the old man's hand to get rid of your political enemies?"

However, Shen Tujia, who was still "resting his mind" with his eyes closed just a moment ago, was looking straight at Yuan Ang at this moment, and his eyes were full of insight.

"Even the two sons have been involved in things that shouldn't be involved several times because of the old man; now, they are even more trapped in the imperial prison..."

"At this time, Doctor Yuan, do you still want to stay out of it?"

"Borrowing a knife to kill someone is indeed a very good strategy;"

"But Doctor Yuan really thinks: Is this old man's knife so easy to borrow?!"

When it came to the end, Shentu Jia's tone was obviously a little angry, and the tone was also raised a bit.

In front of Shentu Jia, listening to Shentu Jia's repeated questions, Yuan Ang's expression of astonishment was also replaced by a burst of shame and indignation.

"Your Excellency and the Prime Minister have known each other for many years, and they are very clear about each other's behavior;"

"The Prime Minister naturally understands what kind of person I am."

"Since the prime minister believes that what I have done is to use the prime minister's hand to get rid of Chao Cuo, then I have nothing to justify."

"Years of friendship, I despise the prime minister, so let's say goodbye!"

After saying this excitedly, Yuan Ang got up angrily, but he did not forget to bow his hands to Shen Tujia deeply;

Afterwards, Yuan An flicked his sleeves angrily, turned around and walked towards the gate of the mansion.

Yuan Ang left.

Shen Tujia sat alone in the gazebo, he couldn't help sighing...

Recalling the past, and the friendship between himself and Yuan An, Shen Tujia frowned a little bitterly;

Thinking of what Liu Sheng said to him in the imperial prison just now, Shen Tujia felt inexplicably melancholy again.

"Your Majesty, why is this..."

"Why is this..."

"Why is this?!!"

An extremely abrupt cry caused the servants in the mansion to be shocked!
When everyone carefully approached the pavilion where Shentujia was, they saw Shentujia's eyes were wide open, his face was flushed, his right hand was clenched into a fist, hanging in the air in front of him, on top of the broken table.

puff! ! !
While everyone was hesitating, they saw a mouthful of blood spurting from Shentujia's mouth, and sprinkled a little scarlet on the broken table;

And on Shentujia's face, there was finally an extremely bitter, bitter smile that was even more heartbreaking than tears...
"The old minister is trembling, and dare not slack off for a moment, for fear that a little carelessness will lead to unrest in the community and the ancestral temple!"

"The heart of this old man to serve the country with fists and fists has actually forced His Majesty to such a point..."

Only then did Shentu Jia finally understand: why Chao Cuo, who has always been cautious, for fear of being caught by someone, dared to dig open the outer wall of the Taimiao;
And in the face of such a major political disaster, why did the emperor Liu Qi be so indifferent, without even a single question, he closed his eyes and saved Chao Cuo.

It wasn't until this moment that Shen Tujia realized that everything he had done seemed meaningless;
No matter what I do, it seems that I can't stop the implementation of the "Policy to Cut Fans";

As for what I thought was a "wise move" before, now it seems that it is nothing more than a mantis arm...

Thinking of this, Shentujia only smiled miserably, and then let out a long and leisurely sigh towards the gate of his house, the direction Yuan Ang had just left.

"Doctor Yuan, don't blame the old man..."

"Chao Cuo cut down the vassal, the government is as harsh as a tiger;"

"The princes will rebel against each other, but sooner or later..."

"At that time, the only thing His Majesty can count on, and the Zongmiao Sheji can count on, is Dr. Yuan..."

After apologizing to Yuan An who left angrily in his heart, Shen Tujia turned around and looked at the mess in front of him;

Afterwards, Shentujia ignored the obstruction of the servants around him and wiped off the blood stains from the corner of his mouth. He casually grabbed a roll of blank bamboo slips, spread it on his lap, and began to write quickly.

Under the worried eyes of everyone, Shen Tujia finished writing a memorandum of unknown content, then stood up and straightened his clothes.

Then, that very iconic and rough voice sounded again over the old Anhou Mansion.

"Prepare the car!"

"Old man, I want to enter the palace to face the saint!!"

An angry shout made the servants on the side anxious again, and rushed forward, trying to persuade Shen Tujia to rest for a while, and then find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment;
But Shen Tujia only raised his hand abruptly, stopped the persuasion of the servants, and then turned sideways, looking at the wall of Weiyang Palace not far away through the wall of the Marquis Mansion.

"Emperor Taizong Xiaowen's entrustment, old man, I must not let you down!"

"Since His Majesty wants to cut down the feudal clan, and the old man has become a stumbling block to His Majesty, no matter how loyal the old man is to the country, he should not be attached to him..."

While whispering in a deep voice, Shentujia's figure couldn't help shaking a little, causing the servants beside him to panic again;
But in the end, Shentujia still supported his seventy-year-old body, and walked towards the extremely shabby carriage outside the gate of the house step by step with firm, proud, and slightly lonely steps... ···
