Chapter 84 Emperor Qi was so angry that his liver ached

Ji Ren once again explained that he did not have the ability to predict the future.

But Zhuge Qinglan was doubtful. Ji Ren didn't have this ability, but it was hard to say that his uncle knew almost everything except who he was. He was the person who knew Zhuge Yuquan best in the world. But even he didn't know how much Zhuge Yuquan was capable.

However, now is not the time to dwell on this. The final result will be in favor of Ji Ren. However, Ji Ren only participated in this matter and did not lead anything. There is no evidence on the surface, so Zhuge Qinglan does not need to worry about it, so he just said: "Unexpected, but I can only say that you are blessed with great luck, just like your name, Ji Ren, a lucky person, with good luck."

"Senior brother is so impressed, but there is still something I need to trouble senior brother. Su Guogong wants to let senior brother speak for him. Let me tell you. As for whether to do it or not, senior brother decides, and I don't dare to say anything. Then, Wu Sheng The account book used for theft and bribery is in my hands, and I cannot trust Tianwuwei." As Ji Ren spoke, he handed the account book to Zhuge Qinglan and said.

"You are causing trouble for me." Zhuge Qinglan looked at Ji Rendao angrily.

"No, no matter whether I come or not, and whether I give you this account book or not, senior brother, you are the prime minister of Daqi, His Majesty's most trusted minister. If this tragic incident of the King of Heaven killing the King of Heaven happened in Daqi, you will definitely be affected. Yeah. His Majesty will definitely discuss it with his senior brother," Ji Ren said innocently.

He won't take the blame.

Zhuge Qinglan looked helpless and said: "That's all, come with me into the palace and meet the Holy One."

"Entering the palace?" Ji Ren looked surprised. Emperor Qi, the nominal ruler of Da Qi.

"Otherwise, you have experienced this matter personally. His Majesty always wants to see you. If you don't follow me to see the Holy One in private, do you have to wait until tomorrow morning to go to court? Then the civil and military officials will come to ask you?" Zhuge Qinglan said.

"Then let's meet in private." Ji Ren said. If he were to go to court, there would be many people and things to do, so it would be troublesome, so it would be better to meet in private.

After all, if we meet in private, Emperor Qi should be easier to talk to, and the monarchs and ministers of Da Qi can get along more casually.

"Let's go."

Zhuge Qinglan, who had just changed into court clothes, sighed, changed into court clothes again, took Ji Ren into the carriage, and headed to the palace.

On the carriage, Zhuge Qinglan, considering that Ji Ren was meeting the Saint for the first time, reminded him of some details about the Saint, and Ji Ren wrote them down honestly.

At the same time, Zhang Jingshou, who should listen to Zhuge Qinglan's lectures the most, was kneeling in the imperial study room, listening to Emperor Qi's reprimand with an unconvinced look on his face.

Emperor Qi looked at Zhang Jingshou who looked dissatisfied in front of him, and felt angry in his heart.

Today, Daqi has an extra king, and Duke Su has made another breakthrough. It was originally a double happiness.

As a result, he was not happy for even an hour. The King of Heaven who had just broken through was shot to death.

He was shot to death by the king of his own country.

According to the news from Tianwuwei, seven of Balinghou's sons also died, which means that all of Balinghou's family were wiped out.

This was the first time such a nasty incident had occurred since he came to the throne.

It won't work without severe punishment, but the Seventh Heavenly King will punish you severely. What if you rebel one day?

Duke Su had no descendants, his parents had both passed away, and he didn't even have any clan members, so he had no restraints at all.

But in order to prevent rebellion, is it possible to directly kill a strong man of the seventh level of the Heavenly King?
  Feeling upset, Emperor Qi asked people to investigate the cause and effect.

First of all, we need to know why Duke Su shot Baling Hou. The two families have always been in contact, aren't they good friends?

As a result, after further investigation, I found that before leaving the imperial capital, the only person Su Guo Gong had contact with was his youngest son. Emperor Qi directly called Prince Ming over, and it turned out, good guy, it was you.

"What? You still don't accept it? As a prince, you don't care about your own safety. You just took Ji Ren and rushed into the den of Wusheng thieves. If I hadn't been worried about your safety and arranged for Tong Qi to protect you, now You can't even stand in front of me." Emperor Qi said coldly.

"If I don't rush in, how will I wipe out the Wusheng bandits? If it weren't for me, who knows how long it will take to wipe them out? The imperial court has been killing them for more than ten years, and they haven't seen any results from you. Father, you talk all day long. I love the people. Now that I have killed the bandits, don’t I love the people?” Zhang Jingshou knelt on the ground and said angrily, “Father, if you want to protect me, then will you let Tong Qi be my bodyguard?” Hiding secretly, you want to spy on Er Chen. Not to mention, Er Chen is not standing now. Isn’t Er Chen kneeling? "

"How dare you talk back, you traitor." Emperor Qi became even more furious after hearing Zhang Jingshou's rebuttal.

Among the five sons, this one was the only one who dared to talk back to his face.

"That's right, my father, loyal words are hard to hear and are helpful to deeds. You said so." Zhang Jingshou flattened his mouth and said with an aggrieved look on his face.

Don't tell me the truth yet.

Double standard.

"Really? I was doing something wrong for your own good. If I didn't feel sorry for your mother and concubine, I would have dragged you out to beat you up." Emperor Qi was even more angry after hearing Zhang Jingshou's retort, "This Let’s leave this matter aside for now. Let me ask you, since you know about the Huang family, why don’t you tell me first and go to Duke Su, you know? Because of this, Marquis Baling, the new king of Daqi, He just died at the city gate."

"The Marquis of Baling was shot to death by Duke Su. That may be because Marquis Baling was the mastermind behind the Wusheng Bandits. This is also reasonable, after all, this is how they started their business. Father, I told you a long time ago that these There are problems in every water village and Wubao. You don’t listen to your loyal ministers and block the way of speech." Zhang Jingshou complained.

"As for you being a loyal minister, and for all the things your kid has done over the years, if I were to tell you one by one, you would never be able to get out of the prison for the rest of your life." Emperor Qi became even more angry after hearing this, and blocked his words. , what do you think I am? Foolish king?

"Then at least what I did today was not wrong. Isn't it normal for this trial to notify the victim's family after knowing the victim? Father, you are not a family member of the victim. And in ordinary cases, the Ministry of Criminal Justice is also informed. , how could you inform your father directly?" Zhang Jingshou whispered.

I didn't do anything wrong. I can't even explain the reason clearly, so I have to punish you, you fool.

"You rebellious son, do you know how important a king is to Daqi? You know what a crime it is for Duke Su to kill the king without permission. You know how big the disturbance will be in the court tomorrow, and how much energy I will have to spend. Come to calm down?" Emperor Qi said.

"However, if Marquis Baling is really the behind-the-scenes controller of Wusheng Bandit, then he deserves his death. The people are the most precious. If not, then Duke Su is wrong and he beheaded Duke Su to rectify the law. , isn't that it? It's a simple matter. Black is black, white is white, Daqi's laws cannot be challenged. Father, what are you bothering about?" Zhang Jingshou said.

"You kid, what do you know about black and white, and what about the country?" Looking at Zhang Jingshou who was becoming more and more eloquent, Emperor Qi's veins jumped even more when he heard it. He picked up the inkstone on the side and wanted to smash it, but halfway through, he found that it was a bit heavy. , if I hit it, it would really hurt Zhang Jingshou, so I put the inkstone down again, picked up the ink brush next to it, and hit Zhang Jingshou.

It hit Zhang Jingshou's forehead. Zhang Jingshou touched his forehead and found that it didn't hurt at all. He looked at Emperor Qi in confusion and seemed to ask, "Why doesn't it hurt at all? Father, didn't you use any strength?"
  Seeing Emperor Qi's heart ached, he really wanted to pick up the inkstone next to him and throw it at him. He could only comfort himself over and over in his heart, "My dear, my dear."

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Su is lying naked outside the palace on a thorn tree. He has tied his hands and apologizes to Your Majesty."

At this moment, a chamberlain came over.

"Mr. Su's flesh is exposed on a thorn tree?" Emperor Qi was shocked when he heard this. He didn't care to teach Zhang Jingshou any more. He quickly got up and walked out.

The Duke of the Seventh Level of the Heavenly King, with his flesh exposed on the back of a thorn tree, this gesture of apology was truly at its peak.

Seeing Emperor Qi leaving, Zhang Jingshou stood up and ran out with Emperor Qi.

At the same time, Ji Ren followed Zhuge Qinglan and walked in. He was secretly shocked when he saw Duke Su with his upper body naked and carrying thorns on his back.

Sure enough, each of these officials is better at acting than the last one. No matter whether they are civil or military, they are all the same.

I suggested that you apologize, so why don't you just go ahead and apologize?
