After dressing as a sick and weak villain

Chapter 24: First Release in Jinjiang (Catching Bugs)

Since the almost collapse of the building last night, Chu Xie had a frightening dream early in the morning.

He dreamed that in a misty autumn rain, he was escorted to the execution ground with his hands tied, and the underground was full of people.Jiang Yan Chigao was sitting not far away from the prisoner, his eyes were cold.

"Execution."

Chu Xie saw the people around him raise a sharp knife, and the knife pierced his heart, and blood gushed out.

Ling Chi.

Blood gurgling down, he knelt on the ground and heard Jiang Yan Chi Senhan's voice from above his head.

"Does it hurt?"

"I want you to die slowly, bit by bit."

When I opened my eyes in a swish, it was actually three poles in the sun.Chu Xie realized that he was drenched all over and was panting heavily.

The wind poured into the room and blew on his bare calf, causing a chill.He tucked his legs into the thin quilt, and called Taoli in to wipe himself.

"Yeah, how did your lord get so much sweating, but it's a little bit bad? Can I change your medicine again, please?"

Chu Xie supported his head for a while.

"The steward is calling."

Chu Xie's voice seemed a little tired, "Is there still no movement from the Ministry of Punishment?"

"No, but it should be soon. I heard that there was some disturbance in Rong Guogong's mansion last night. It is likely that something was found."

"Well."

Letting Taoli roll up her sleeves with the handkerchief and wipe her arms, Chu Xie drooped her head a little listlessly, and asked again: "Duan Se's... how are you?"

"Very well, according to the latest letter, she has recently opened a small piece of wasteland to grow fruit. I also asked if I could send you some... Uh, but it doesn't seem to be delicious."

"Just post it, it stinks when it's delivered. Write a letter to her, and ask her to deliver the letter to the East Palace through the Xu family in eight days. Don't choose to meet in Shangjing City to avoid being caught... As for the next thing, I can't take care of it anymore, teach Jiang Yanchi to take care of it."

Taoli wiped it, and laughed out loud: "My lord is going to sue his old age and return to his hometown, isn't he, why can't he control it."

The steward's expression was a little dignified.

Lord Zhu has said more than once that his body is now at the end of its strength.There have been frequent changes in recent days, and I'm afraid the days are numbered.

Taoli didn't know much about this, and she still smiled: "If you want to return to your hometown, please take Taoli with you. Taoli also stayed in the capital here enough, it's not interesting at all."

Chu Xie vaguely agreed, and when the medicine was administered, he felt very tired, turned over and fell asleep.

Four days passed by in a flash.In the blink of an eye, it was the day when the Rongguo Mansion's Dongchuang incident happened.

On the first day of the palace banquet, the Minister of Dali Temple submitted the progress of the East Palace poisoning case - the spearhead was directed at Rongguo's mansion.It is said that the poison consistent with the dishes in the East Palace was found in the mansion.

The evidence is solid and the movement is great.

The Ministry of Punishment acted vigorously and resolutely.Eight members of the Rongguo family's direct lineage were imprisoned awaiting trial.The rest were also imprisoned in the government.

Chu Xie, who had been dormant for half a month, was still the focus of civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty when he arrived late in the afternoon.Everyone wondered if this was another secret method used by this eunuch who was used to misbehavior.

This morning, the only grandson of the Duke was being handed over from the Ministry of Punishments to Zhao Prison, and he must have suffered a lot.

Chu Xie was still the same, there were a lot of rumors in half a month, most of them were rumors that he was almost beaten to death by the prince in Zhao Prison, but now it seems that it is likely to be false.

Look at his complacent demeanor.

Where does it look like a seriously injured person.

Xu Chunmu was seated in the second row from the left, and Taifu Su Mingan was on the right.Chu Xie was seated as the chief on the left, one person under him.

Xu Chunmu's lieutenant general just got the imperial edict to enter the capital, and now sitting behind him, he saw the paw print lord obliquely in front of him, whom the young master had paid close attention to for the past six months.

What a beautiful woman.

It was the first time he saw a man who was a little more beautiful than his little master.

How did such a skinny beauty climb to a high position.

The lieutenant general was still thinking about it, when suddenly he saw a spot of vermilion on the little finger of the little Hou Ye's left hand.

At that time, the whole person was not very well.

"Young Master, your hand..."

It's probably a joke for others to see.Not even covering it up.But Xu Chunmu didn't care about it.

There is a woman.

The lieutenant punched his thigh. His young master must have found a girl he likes in Shangjing! Apart from the fact that women who paint eyebrows and decals can have a little fun and use it on men, how else did it come about? .

Little Hou Ye was in the northern border, his eyes were higher than the top, and no one would look down on him. Unexpectedly, when he came to the capital, he was tricked by a woman into the cave!

Depressedly down a glass of wine.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was absent, and the people who went to the Ministry of Punishment to look after Gu Rongguo's mansion, for some reason, the Crown Prince seemed to be very sure that it was not the Chen family who poisoned the East Palace. He wanted to be sure, but the evidence was solid.

Going to the trial today is also to make the trial clear and prevent people from tampering with people's unjust death.

Chu Xie looked at the empty space, and from the corner of his eye glanced at Mrs. Su who was directly opposite.

The Taifu picked up a glass of strong wine, drank it in one gulp, and nodded back almost invisible.

well.

The stone in Chu Xie's heart fell.

Su Mingan was the Taifu of the four dynasties, and he was in the same position as Zaifu.He has served as an imperial teacher for two terms.

He nodded, Jiang Yanchi couldn't solve the case even if he kept an eye on Hua'er.

Halfway through the banquet, he really saw the prince entering the banquet with a slightly displeased expression, so he drank two cups of sweet-scented osmanthus wine and put it on the fire, and glanced at Chu Xie.

"Master Chu is very interested."

Chu Xie guessed that the prince wanted to protect Duke Rong.Just like the last time I wanted to protect the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Xue.

The prince knew very well that the poison was caused by Chu Xie.

But he had a way to evade it completely, and in a blink of an eye, he blamed the Duke of Rongguo - if he had known, the Duke of Rongguo had guarantor Chu Xie when he entered Zhao Prison.

Such a vicious dog that bites people with a backhand in spite of feelings.

How to keep it.

Before he could say a few more words, someone presented new evidence in the interrogation of the Rongguo Mansion poisoning the East Palace incident. Chu Xie was familiar with the script and knew that this was the confession from the manager of the Rongguo Mansion, so he voluntarily confessed to reduce his punishment.Jiang Yan's face became darker and darker after seeing the report late.

When he glanced at that person, his eyes were like hooks plucking out Chu Xie's flesh.

After a dance, Xue Shangshu calmly said the words to Chu Xie, "The car is cracked? Let's not say that the Ministry of Criminal Justice judged the case hastily, and the punishment should not be too cruel. If it is changed to exile first, his relatives..."

Chu Xie dismissed it coldly, "To kill the East Palace with poison, and to frame important ministers, there is more than justification for death."

Jiang Yanchi clenched his hands into fists, his nails digging deep into his palms.

Who poisoned Donggong.

And who framed the minister.

Don't you know what to do?

Unexpectedly, before the crown prince could open his mouth, Xu Xiaohou stood up first: "No matter what, it's really inappropriate to settle the case hastily in four days. The matter involves a hundred-year-old Duke's mansion, how can you ruin a person's life so rashly..."

"As long as you live, don't cut down the noble. This is extremely generous." Chu Xie raised his eyelids a little bit, and the dark light flowed, "Why, Xu Xiaohou thinks that the crime of regicide can be turned a blind eye, or that, In your opinion, regicide is not a felony at all."

The irony of the last sentence is too obvious.

Who doesn't know that the Xu family's military achievements are too great, and they have always been suspected of overthrowing the master.

Xu Chunmu's face turned pale, and before he said anything, another general who had followed the Xu family for several years suddenly stood up and pointed at Chu Xie: "How dare you speak like that! We fought bloody battles to defend our home and country, and all we did was throw our heads away. Sprinkling blood! How can such loyalty and courage be understood by you, an eunuch who has never set foot in the capital alone!"

The words were clanging, and the hall was extremely quiet for an instant.

Chu Xie held a small teacup in his right hand, took a sip, and put his little finger on the bottom of the cup unhurriedly, with dignified and quiet movements, without making a sound.

The calm appearance was in stark contrast to the general's reckless impulsiveness.

"The general has fought hard for many years."

"I'm afraid that the general lived on the border for a long time, and the mountains were high and the emperor was far away. Over time, he forgot the rules of going to the capital... If the crime of regicide is not severely punished as an example, how can our Highness dare to send hundreds of thousands of troops to the throne after he ascends the throne in the future?" Leave it to a loyal and courageous person like the general."

The general was dragged in by Chu Xie's few words, but Xu Chunmu was very sober.

Rebuttal immediately.

"General Luo's meaning is not that the regicide should not be beheaded, but that the crime of regicide must not be sentenced indiscriminately!" Xu Chunmu got up and walked in front of Chu Xie, "It is true that the poison was found in the Duke Rong's mansion, but for such a The evidence for the answer is obviously not enough, why should the palm prints be so aggressive and immediately execute Duke Rong!"

"How come I am anxious to execute him."

Chu Xie didn't get up, but looked very puzzled, looking up at Xu Chunmu, "Could it be that he did something wrong on his own, relying on himself as the prince of the century-old government, and wanted to support his nephew as the emperor? His heart is damnable, Its intention is to kill."

"Then you will be imprisoned! You will be imprisoned for life, and you cannot—"

pat.

Chu Xie put down the cup heavily in his hand, as if he had exhausted his last patience, and the false politeness was no longer in his voice.

"The case is closed, Young Master."

There was a clear sense of warning in those eyes, like a poisonous snake clinging to and entangled in front of him, baring its fangs and spitting out letters.

what happened.

Xu Chunmu looked at the cold and decisive Chu Xie in front of him, and recalled the person who was holding a pot of flowers and meticulously wiping his nails a few days ago, feeling vaguely that it was very inconsistent.

Looking at the man's eyes, Xu Chunmu leaned down slightly, and lowered his voice: "Axie, what's wrong with you...you are not such a person, you..."

"Call me Master Chu."

Chu Xie slowly stood up.A good palace banquet was disturbed again.

It's all because of Chu Xie.

As long as he is there, it will always be a miasma.

Jiang Yanchi's eyes were dark, but he saw the man clasping his fists in salute: "Your Highness, how do you think the verdict should be decided."

These words sounded respectful, but the cold light in his eyes and the provocative corners of his mouth were clearly not the case.As if warning Jiang Yanchi——

If I didn't die in Zhao Prison, I would definitely break your left and right arms one by one.Drag you off the throne so that you will never be reborn.

Hearing the rebuttals back and forth, the prince only felt that his chest was becoming more and more oppressed, and the torch of anger like the wind was about to be ignited in an instant.

Holding the paper of complaint tightly in his hand, it was almost crumpled into a ball, and under the anger, he felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

Just as he was about to refute, his eyes suddenly fell on his clasped hands.

Under the cover of the long sleeve, the little finger of his left hand was wrapped in a layer of white cloth, as if injured.

The words stopped abruptly.

Looking from hand to person, Jiang Yanchi's heart stopped beating for an instant when he saw Chu Xie's indulgent smile.

His face gradually turned pale.
