I was Idle and Cool Chapter 185: One court, two old enemies
On the way back to the house, Gu Juefei didn't say a word, and Lu Jinxi didn't ask any more questions, let alone persuade him.
How easy is it to solve a ten-year-old knot?
The two returned to the house together.
At this time, the sky was dizzy, and another day had passed.
Lu Jinxi asked him, "Are you done?"
Gu Juefei shook his head, sat on the chair, stretched out his hand, squeezed his eyebrows lightly, and said, "Not yet, but I have negotiated a preliminary plan with Ji Heng and Fang Shaoxing. It depends on what General Xue, our 'meritorious minister', will do. If he really turns his back, I will be the first one to get rid of."
A shallow sentence, but hidden is full of thrilling.
The great achievements of Xue Kuang, who had been dormant for ten years and tried his best to make the Xiongnu surrender, are widely spread in the capital of today.
The rain is coming, and the wind is blowing!
Lu Jinxi couldn't help but sigh, for the sake of Da Xia and the innocent people, he murmured and asked, "Will he rebel?"
"Yes."
Ten years of humiliation and heavy burdens, and once you return, will there be no plans at all? Gu Juefei's eyes were full of unfathomable brilliance, but the words that he could export were shockingly cold and cruel.
"Even if he doesn't rebel, I will force him to rebel!"
No one knows how much he planned to wait for this day, and even Xiao Che didn't know how much he did in secret to wait for this day.
I'm afraid Xue Kuang himself doesn't know about it—
What a huge trap he fell into, a shocking killing game!
Ten years ago, Xue Kuang escaped with serious injuries and survived the disaster. Although he concealed his evil intentions, he still won a great reputation all over the world. Although he was a little better, he was undoubtedly defeated, and he was loved by the people closest to him. Abandoned, kicked out of the house.
In this game, no one has won anyone.
Now ten years have passed, and he not only wants to win, but also to win beautifully.
Name and power, like Xue Kuang, don't even think about getting it!
Gu Juefei slowly closed his eyes.
Lu Jinxi had all kinds of complexities in her heart. She stood by and watched, only feeling that this was a battle that she could not intervene in.
So she just smiled, walked up and said, "Have you eaten?"
Gu Juefei shook his head.
So she was helpless, so she only ordered someone to set the meal with him, accompany him to have dinner first, and then persuaded him to rest.
Shortly after Gu Juefeifang fell asleep, someone outside came in with a box.
One foot long, half foot wide, and half foot high.
There are some bound books inside, with several tightly wrapped scrolls pressed underneath.
Lu Jinxi looked a little puzzled.
The side of the wind chime station explained: "It was sent by Mr. Wan himself just now, saying that it was the chess book that the old lady promised to give you in the afternoon, and I sent it to you for you to see."
Oh, this is it.
Lu Jinxi thought about it for a while, and stretched it out into the box, took out a book and flipped it over.
The above pictures are really chess records.
She put down the book in her hand again, took out a scroll that was pressed underneath and unfolded it. It was also a chess book, but it was a lot more complicated than the ones written in the book, and it was actually incomprehensible.
So I was helpless for a while.
She's actually not very interested in playing chess, but it was the old lady's mind, so she put the scroll back and said, "Put all these in my room, and I'll look at it another day."
"Yes."
The wind chimes withdrew according to the words, and asked people to move the box full of chess records to Lu Jinxi's study.
It's night time.
Lu Jinxi sat alone in the room and read a book for a while, and felt sleepy, so she crawled onto the bed lightly and fell asleep with Gu Juefei, who had already fallen asleep.
The next two days will undoubtedly be turbulent two days.
Various rumors spread throughout the capital.
I don't know when it started, but all kinds of rumors and rumors gradually fell on Gu Juefei, saying that he was a coveted woman who married Lu Jinxi. The important position of the so-called "Scholar of the Palace of Preservation".
But at the same time, another kind of rumor is also rampant: It is said that Xue Kuang conquered the Huns without costing the imperial court a soldier and a soldier. In the past ten years, he has not endured humiliation and burden, but has actually surrendered to the Xiongnu, and has been embarrassed by Princess Nalanqu. In order to delay the army, we must conspire to rebel!
In this case, even a fool can feel it. Under the boiling water of the capital, there are two forces that are biting secretly. You come and go and fight with each other!
The people finally smelled a little uneasy.
There are fewer people who dare to go out these days, for fear of causing trouble, and there is no sign of Chinese New Year in the capital.
This kind of stalemate continued until the fourth day of the fourth day after the end of the court Zhengyuan Xiumu three days——
The first court meeting day in the seventeenth year of Qing'an.
Gu Juefei got up very early that day, put on the first-class crane dress little by little, smoothed every fold of the cuffs and neckline, and entered the palace in a soft sedan chair in the cold wind of winter.
Lu Jinxi watched him disappear outside the door.
Even if he didn't say much when he left, she could easily guess that there was bound to be a tit-for-tat battle in today's court!
Knives, lights, swords and shadows are invisible.
As if everyone knew that this would be an unusual day, none of the civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty arrived late and waited early outside the Tai Chi Gate.
The only one who came a little later was Xue Kuang.
Having replaced his heavy armor, he was wearing a uniform of the military uniform with a unicorn pattern.
When the Taiji Gate opened, the two of them took the lead in both civil and military affairs, and they were quite close to each other, walking towards the gate at the same time.
One from the left and one from the right.
No one gave anyone a second glance, and no one said a word to anyone.
When I entered the Golden Palace, I only heard the voice of the **** and spies sing, shouting "The Emperor is here", and everyone knelt down in unison, and the mountain shouted long live.
Xiao Che sat on the dragon chair with the twelve crowns on his head and glanced down.
In addition to Gu Juefei, who is the leader on the left, Xue Kuang, who is the leader on the right, is also so eye-catching.
On the snowy night three days ago, in this great hall, he heard the news that Xue Kuang had knocked into the gate and entered the invitation. He hurriedly approached Gu Juefei to discuss it, and then summoned a group of confidants before calling the death sentence. The resurrected Xue Kuang.
For three days in a row, he thought it was a nightmare.
But in court today, the source of this nightmare is so alive right under his nose.
A thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh!
He wished he could get rid of him immediately, but with all eyes on him and the justice being clear, how could he dare to take the risk of the world and scold him, Xue Kuangshi, for being a traitor and a traitor without any evidence?
Only forbearance.
With his hard fingers, he quietly clenched the cold armrest of the dragon chair. Xiao Che forced himself to suppress the mixed emotions of fear and killing intent.
He first said "All the ministers are flat", and then he said directly: "The matter of General Xue's return to the DPRK should have been heard by all the ministers in the past few days, so I won't go into details. I have called Gu Aiqing and several cabinet ministers to discuss it, and we have drawn up a new edict. Before today's discussion, please read the edict to me first."
"The minister obeys the order."
Gu Juefei was not surprised at what Xiao Che said.
He went out in line, and the waiting **** walked up with a gold-painted lacquer plate and gave him the rolled up imperial decree in the middle.
After years of ups and downs in the courtroom, Gu Juefei has gained extraordinary power in every gesture. At this moment, he took up a full sleeve, picked up the imperial decree and unfolded it, with a smile on his face.
Don't look, he knows what's written in the imperial edict.
At this moment, I only glanced down slightly, and then stood in the middle of the court and read aloud: "Xue Kuang, the general of Wuwei Town, took the decree——"
“…”
Xue Kuang raised his head and met Gu Juefei's gaze raised from the imperial decree, which contained undisguised hostility and coldness.
He is waiting for his order.
Under the whole world, the Son of Heaven is the most respected.
But today's emperor sits high above the Ming hall. Gu Juefei is the one who read out the will on behalf of the emperor. It took him three and a half years to climb to this position, and he can stand on the hall with his back straight.
And he is the one who takes the decree, and he must kneel down in front of him!
The eyes are like knives, like swords, confronting each other in this moment.
One is cold and the other is strong.
No one was afraid, no one backed down.
At this moment, time seemed to stop in such a tense situation, and all the civil and military people in the court watched this scene with fear, unable to imagine the mood of any one of them.
They were once the proud sons of the heavens, the two jades of the Xia Dynasty.
They have also married the same woman in the past ten years.
No one can judge, at this moment, whether the two of them are enemies or friends.
Everyone can only see that after the short-term or long-term eye contact, Xue Kuang came out, lifted his robe with his eyes down, and knelt down on his knees. .
The voice that had been away for ten years resonated in the courtroom once again.
"Chen, Xue Kuang, accept the order!"
