Ze Tian Ji Chapter 20: Pit digging
The middle-aged person in front of Zhou Tong looks at laughed, and the smile was a little deep and unfathomable: "Is this what Mrs. Xue is saying?"
? The middle-aged man has a look of uneasy, saying: "Zhuo Jing is anxious, but he doesn't want to lie because of anger."
"Thank you, Sir, for coming to say this to me."
Zhou Tong's attitude is very sincere and his eyes are very gentle.
But when Master Wei of the Ministry of Rites left, his eyes soon became indifferent.
What happened that night is only a few days away. As a party, he will certainly not forget.
His loyal subordinates will certainly not forget.
To be precise, the beginning of that night was the knife light in Begonia small courtyard. He almost died in Chen Changshen's hands.
Without that, or the subsequent development of the situation will not change much, but his role in this matter is likely to be different from what it is now.
Xue Xingchuan is his only friend in the world.
Xue Xingchuan is the only person in the world who trusts him.
So, he was poisoned to death.
In the palace that day, he was treated with Holy Light Technique, plus Shang Xingzhou shot himself, his injury already was almost recovered.
He will have a higher status in the new dynasty, more power, and more unshakable.
To announce and prove to the whole world, the body of Xue Xingchuan was thrown out of the official way, and no burial was allowed.
As a result, Chen Changshen collected the corpse for Xue Xingchuan. Mrs. Xue did not prepare (to) leave the capital. The child named Brother Jin will be picked up. Xuefu ... it ’s even a festival!
Zhou Tong Of course understand what these things mean, this is hitting his face.
The Begonia tree already has become detritus, the courtyard is broken, the buildings on the ground of Department for Purging Officials Government Office are all already abandoned, only the underground prison is still intact.
Zhou Tong stands in the ruins, light clouds in the sky of looks at, silent, does not know what to think.
A subordinate, looks at, who looked slightly lonely, tentatively asked, "Master ..."
"My face has always been thick, otherwise I won't live today."
Zhou Tong said calmly: "Principal Chen already hit my left face. If he is still interested, I can turn my head and make his right face happy."
The subordinate reluctantly said, "Why?"
Zhou Tong retracted Wang Tian's eyes and said with no expression: "Just because he is a student of Principal Shang, His Majesty's Junior Brother and heir selected by Pope, he is eligible to hit my face."
Exposing Xue Xingchuan and the generals of Yulin Army to the Command of the imperial court, who dares to disobey?
Chen Changshen dares, who dares to use the law of Great Zhou or resist him?
Why? As Zhou Tong said, if the court does not want to split with Orthodox after just overthrowing Divine Empress, it can only endure.
The court must endure, let alone Zhou Tong is only a member of the court, even if it is a big member.
The subordinate said annoyed, "When is that going to endure?"
Zhou Tong was silent for a while and said, "Mothers will die, so everyone will die."
What he said is not Chen Changshen, but His Holiness The Pope, who admits that already is old and will die before Mausoleum of Books.
On the day when His Holiness The Pope returns to sea of stars, or Chen Changshen will really become the next generation of Pope, neither the court nor the Shang Xingzhou or the collective consciousness of Orthodox will allow him to act like a young man, although he Still young, this is the reason to wear Holy Crown.
Zhou Tong only needs to endure this time.
"Well, it's not murder."
Many people in this world want to kill Zhou Tong.
Many ministers in the new dynasty, including several royal princes including Prince of Zhongshan, are anxious to sacrifice their flesh, but they can do nothing.
Chen Changshen can express shamelessness on Zhou Tong in many ways. It can strike his face in different ways, and it is impossible to kill him.
As said many times, he represents Shang Xingzhou's commitment to the whole world.
The subordinates are still a little uneasy, and ask, "What about Xue's house offering a sacrifice?"
"Setting a sacrifice? I think it's more like digging a pit." Zhou Tong smiled, and then said to his subordinates: "It is not important whether the courtyard can be restored as before, but I want a begonia tree here. Just like the former Begonia tree, remember to dig a little deeper in the tree pit to do such a good job. "
For this small courtyard of North Cavalry Lane, the begonia tree is very important.
It's like he's in this world.
They are some kind of symbol.
...
...
Rebuilding Zhou Prison is a very troublesome project. The Ministry of Industry and Capital House sent a lot of labor and excellent craftsmen.
The project proceeded very smoothly. Only two days later, already saw its initial appearance, but time was still very tight. After night, those laborers still worked hard.
A tree pit was dug under the courtyard wall. The pit was dug deep. I want to know that no matter what kind of begonia tree can grow in it.
When night was at its deepest, the labor and craftsmen finally went to rest.
No one noticed that a figure came to the courtyard wall and jumped into the pit.
Well, it sounds like the tiny sound of blade edge cut into tofu.
Countless cold light flashes from the fingertips of that figure, but it is obviously not a sword.
The soil of the pit wall is like tofu, falling down.
Then that figure disappeared.
...
...
Xue Fu has a sacrifice.
Lingtang is in the house, you can't see it on the street at all, you can only see the white magpie, but nothing else has changed.
No cry or music, it's really deserted to peak.
There is no music, because no band dares to take over the job of Xue Fu.
There is no cry, because there are no guests who come to worship, then no matter whether they are genuine or false, the people in the house cannot always mourn there.
This is what many people think of already.
The remains of Xue Xingchuan were collected by Chen Changshen.
Xue's funeral naturally has a different meaning.
Some people even think that this is a contest between the court and Orthodox, Shang Xingzhou and Chen Changshen, a pair of Master and Disciple.
This funeral can clearly see the wind direction of Capital City and even the entire Continent.
People who come to worship Xue Xingchuan, in a sense, they also worship Divine Empress.
Surely there are people in the old dynasty of Tianhai, but who dares to show it?
On the cold hall, Mrs. Xue, the housekeeper looks at, said sadly, "It looks like ... no one should come again."
Don't say that it is the minister of Imperial Court, the military general, and those who have failed in the past, even Li Palace did not respond.
Only Linghai Zhiwang and Taoist Si Yuan, in the early morning, came to worship.
The personal relationship between these two Orthodox giants and Xue Xingchuan is actually ordinary, but everyone knows that they are the most staunch supporters of Divine Empress Tianhai like Xue Xingchuan.
Mrs. Xue looks at's empty house, said calmly, "There are always people who want to come, even if they are not convenient, but we always have to wait."
Yes, there are many people in Capital who want to worship Xue Xingchuan. Because of their relationship with Xue Xingchuan, they ca n’t be justified without coming.
But for various reasons, they dare not come, which is extremely difficult.
As Zhou Tong said, Xue Fu's offerings are like digging a hole for those people.
Do you jump or not?
Time goes slowly.
The sun moves slowly.
The hour already is here.
Xue Fu is still deserted, and no one has come yet.
