 The traitorous minister who sells his teacher for glory (18) (treacherous minister or bears the burden of humiliation? (Sanhe...)

"you dare!!!"

Li Ziqian originally planned to go to the city to think again, but she didn't expect that the person meant to be executed directly on the spot. She suddenly became nervous, broke away from the people who tried to stop her, and fought hard to stand in front of the Liu family.

Like a female wolf threatened by the little wolf, she spread her arms to protect the person behind her.

"If you dare to do anything to the Liu family, Ji Changze will not let you go!"

The man sent out by the emperor laughed: "Madam, don't move out, Master Ji to frighten the official. Yes, the official is not higher than the official position of Master Ji, but first, the execution of the Liu family's relatives is the will of your majesty. Second, What is the relationship between the Liu family and Master Ji? Why did Master Ji turn against the official for the Liu family."

"The officer knows that Madam and Madam Liu have a very good relationship. It's just Madam. This is a matter of court. No matter where you, the female family member can participate, please move forward. Don't make the officer embarrassed."

Li Ziqian refused to leave. If someone came to pull her, she would resist. She was the wife of Master Ji Changzeji. Those who were sent to take him didn't dare to use any force, and in the end she really stood in a stalemate.

Seeing Li Ziqian blocking the way, the expression on his face also darkened, and he sternly said: "Mrs. Ji, if you insist on doing this, even if the officer hurts you, that's a reason."

Madam Liu stood next to Li Ziqian and whispered: "This is Lord Zhou from the patrol camp. He and my master are classmates. He has always disliked him. When I met him, I was so cold. Today, I'm afraid I'm here to take revenge. Don't be impulsive, lest you also get tired."

"We voluntarily returned to the city and asked to see your Majesty. There are only young children besides the female family members. In the presence of so many people, if he refuses to agree, it will be a loss of reputation, and then enter the city, and then slowly plot."

Li Ziqian still didn't want to let Liu's family be taken away: "If you really let them take you away, it will be inevitable if you really want to spread your wings."

"Now I don't care about this a lot, don't get involved, otherwise we really don't have the slightest hope. In a moment, you will take Leping away."

The Master Zhou knew that they could not escape, and was not in a rush. He just waited for them to say a few words and then raised his voice; "Well, what regulations should the two ladies discuss?"

"I also ask Mrs. Ji not to interfere with this official's work. The execution of Liu's family is an order of your majesty himself. You are resisting the decree and do not comply. Don't hurt Master Ji again.

"My lord, I am waiting for the Liu family members to come back to Beijing with you. This matter has nothing to do with the Ji family. Please let the Ji family leave."

Lord Zhou sneered: "Naturally."

The carriage pulling Mrs. Li was first released. Li Ziqian glanced at Mrs. Liu worriedly, turned her head on the carriage, and after going up, stretched out her hand to Liu Leping:

"Leping, come up."

Liu Leping was stunned and looked at his mother beside him.

Madam Liu nodded: "Leping, get in the car."

"and many more."

Master Zhou suddenly spoke and stared at Liu Leping for a few seconds: "This is Master Liu's daughter. This is from the Liu family. How can you follow the Ji family."

"Mrs. Liu, don't play any tricks, the officer knows how many people in your family are."

Madam Liu said coldly: "Although she was raised in Liu's family, she is not from my Liu family's blood."

Liu Leping was shocked and looked at her in shock: "Mother?!"

Madam Liu did not respond to her, but kept staring at Lord Zhou with a sonorous voice:

"She is the daughter of Master Ji and Mrs. Ji. She was raised in my family by mistakes. If you don't believe me, ask Mrs. Ji."

Li Ziqian also said: "Leping is indeed my daughter and Ji Changze, Lord Zhou, please let my daughter go with me."

In the distance, the curtain of old lady Li's sedan chair was suddenly opened, and an old lady with gray hair looked at the charming girl standing next to Mrs. Liu with tears in her eyes.

Lord Zhou was also taken aback, but soon he reacted: "Why do you want to raise a good daughter in another home? This official knows that Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Liu are good at deceiving the king, and I don't know if you can bear it. From."

"Today, Mrs. Ji's words, the officer can't believe a word. As soon as the wife got on the car, she put down the curtain. Don't see the officer deal with Liu's relatives and be frightened."

Everyone present was surprised.

Li Ziqian looked ugly, and quickly moved out of the law: "Even if Mrs. Liu is convicted, his relatives should be sent to jail first, and then allocated. There is no reason to deal with them immediately. The officials are convicted, and the offenders and their families are all punished. The men who have not yet become Ding are exiled. The wife and daughters of Mrs. Liu's family are all female relatives. Even if the son has not yet become Ding, he should be taken to Xingtian Mansion first, even if he has to be dealt with."

"Your Majesty Xiang Rende, it is impossible to rashly give such an order. The order was also for the defector to kill without mercy, but Madam Liu and the others just happened to accompany me to worship the Buddha. Now they are willing to return to Beijing and obey the order of His Majesty. It is not a defect. If your lord does this, isn't he afraid of your majesty's questioning?!"

Master Zhou's complexion is not good.

What your Majesty said to him was indeed only to defect and kill, but if Liu's relatives cooperated, he would really not be able to kill directly.

but...

After finally seizing such an opportunity, how could he give Liu Shengyan the hope of his relatives alive?

Liu Shengyan has always been lucky, and he is very evil. Every time he can be surprised by the help of the nobles, this time he will seize the opportunity, maybe he can really turn over again.

He didn't want to spend more time talking, the more he said, the more mistakes he made. Anyway, he was just a petty official. Even if he disposes of them, as long as they kill them and want to escape, his Majesty will not go to inquire.

As for Ji Changze's wife...

It's nothing more than a tool man with a reputation, the cruel and cold-hearted Master Ji won't care at all.

And they kept saying that Liu Leping was the daughter of Ji Changze and his wife, and it was even more nonsense, why should she send her a good daughter to someone else's house.

He didn't want to waste any more time, and directly ordered: "Come here, shoot the family members of the offenders on the spot!"

Li Ziqian's panicked voice broke silver: "If you kill them, I won't let you go!!"

Lord Zhou smiled contemptuously: "Madame is a female stream, so don't do anything threatening."

He looked at the Liu's mother and daughter who were stubbornly looking, put down his bow, slowly drew the knife, jumped off the horse, and walked towards them:

"This official is a court official. If he changes his mind because of a threat or two, wouldn't it be a mockery of an adult?"

As he said, he smiled fiercely, and raised his knife at Madam Liu who was holding his daughter in his arms.

"Don't--"

In Li Ziqian's heartbreaking cry, the knife fell heavily.

-Whoosh!

"what!!!!"

Lord Zhou screamed, clutching the wrist shot through by the arrow, bends down in embarrassment and sighs in pain, and the right hand holding the knife is injured. The knife that is being held naturally also "choked" and fell to the ground.

The rush of horse hooves came closer and closer, and then Ji Changze, who was riding on a horse, came with a team of men and horses.

He sat on the horse, looked condescendingly at the screaming Master Zhou on the ground, and said coldly:

"Master Zhou Ru really cherishes fame, but I don't know, if the official threatens, whether the adult will be as merciless as he did to his wife."

Behind him, there was Mother Xu who also rode a horse to follow up. When everyone faced off, no one noticed that she slipped out to the nearby Xijiao Camp for help.

"Ji Changze!!"

Zhou Ru was originally afraid of Ji Changze, and he holds great power in the center, and he will repay him. If you pour a glass of water at him, he can throw you into the river, Master Ji, who is not afraid.

But now, he already knows that his Majesty has lost his former favor of Ji Changze. What kind of authority is just a knife that is about to be abandoned.

If Ji Changze is gone, I don't know if Zhou Ru can replace him.

He staggered and stood up, clutching his injured wrist, and sitting on the horse embarrassedly. He was obviously about the same size as him, but still handsome and handsome, and his embarrassed Ji Changze screamed: "I'm here, dare you Defy your Majesty's meaning!"

Li Ziqian couldn't care much now, and hurriedly stepped forward to inform him that Liu Leping was Ji Changze's daughter, so that he could keep Liu's family.

But before she staggered forward, she heard Ji Changze ask Zhou Ruslowly: "So, your Majesty asked you to kill the only bloodline of this official?"

Zhou Ru, who had always thought that Mrs. Ji's remarks were just trying to save Liu Leping's excuses, was stunned.

Li Ziqian was also startled.

She looked at her husband incredulously.

He knows, how could he know?

What did she think of, she looked at Mother Xu who was walking towards her. Mother Xu understood her heart and hurriedly explained: "It wasn't the old slave who said it."

Then... how did Ji Changze know?

Ji Changze didn't have time to pay attention to this. He just looked at Zhou Ru like a dead person: "If you are a clever, now apologize, the officer can still forget the blame."

"Joke, although you have a higher official position than me, but I am on your majesty's order, do you dare not even listen to your majesty's words!"

"You said she is your daughter and she is your daughter. Who knows if you are in anger with Liu Jiabang. In order to protect the Liu family from deliberately deceiving your Majesty, if you are acquainted, you should leave, otherwise I will sue you before your Majesty. Even if you are your Majesty's favor, I am afraid that this time you will not be able to escape the dragon's wrath."

Li Ziqian clenched her fists nervously.

Ji Changze...Will he give up their daughter in order to save himself?

Fortunately, Ji Changze did not intend to regress, but he still sat on the horse with a cold expression: "The official father-in-law was convicted, and the official asked the wife next to his wife to find a chance to hide the child. He did not expect to meet Liu by chance. Madam gave birth to a stillbirth, and Madam Liu was kind and kind to take in my daughter and me. If you don't believe me, I still have the letter from my wife that year."

Li Ziqian was stiff, and she kept repeating what the only husband said.

That stable woman back then was Ji Changze's person?

Doesn't that mean that he knew it from the beginning.

He knew that she entrusted the child to Liu's family, knew that she had falsely reported a stillbirth, knew what she was worried about, and knew that she wanted to hide the child.

By the way, when Ji Changze knew that the child was stillborn, he did not feel sad, even cold-blooded and unfeeling.

At that time, she was still thinking that this was the real face of this man.

She believed that he had no feelings for their mother and daughter, and everything was just acting. This was the only way to be indifferent to their child's premature birth. This also became evidence that Ji Changze was just a disguise before.

But if he knew the truth from the beginning.

Knowing that the child is okay, naturally he will not feel sad.

Knowing where the child is and being properly taken care of, of course, there is no anxiety or worry.

Li Ziqian went through all these years in the bottom of her heart, and looked up at Ji Changze with complicated eyes.

He has always known, but why...why do you want to cooperate with her in this way? He has a love for their children and why he stepped on his father so ruthlessly in the first place.

And why... Knowing everything she did, but pretending to be ignorant, maybe no one knew about it all these years, and it was Ji Changze's credit.

It's just...what the hell.

Why is it so.

Ji Changze is still in that yin and yang strange atmosphere:

"As for whether your majesty wants to condemn the crime, it also depends on your majesty. Rather than worry about the official, Master Zhou should think about whether you can use your hand again in the future, as you are now, and offend the officials. ."

"you!"

Master Yin-Yang Qi Ji didn't care about Zhou Ru who was irritated into anger at all. He just pulled away the bow and arrow in his hand and aimed at the person standing on the ground with his arms in his hands, his tone was light:

"If you don't make concessions, Lord Zhou today will not just abolish one hand."

Zhou Ru wants to say do you dare?

But looking at Ji Changze's indifferent eyes, he was instantly discouraged.

He really dare.

Hasn't Ji Changze always been like this? The reputation of being reckless and resolute in doing things is more than just talking.

It's just that he used this method to deal with those who didn't agree with your Majesty. This was the first time that he dealt with people around His Majesty in this way.

Zhou Ru was scared.

Naturally, it was not that Ji Changze retaliated afterwards, but that the lunatic now killed himself with one arrow.

He gritted his teeth unwillingly and took a step aside.

Watching Ji Changze jump off the horse and walk in the direction of the Liu family and Mrs. Ji, Zhou Ru shouted from behind, "Don't be proud! The Liu family will definitely die!"

"Even if you say she is your daughter, your majesty will not believe it!"

Ji Changze's back paused, then slowly turned around, squinting at him: "What do you know?"

Zhou Ru finally got a little smug, with some retaliatory sarcasm: "Do you really think that your majesty will protect you? You have repeatedly blocked your majesty's establishment of the palace, do you really think that your majesty doesn't know it, it's just that you can think about it? Raising these 70,000 soldiers is just pretending to be ignorant."

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. You took your heart and lungs and emptied the entire house to raise these mud legs. Are you trying to please your majesty? It's a pity that your majesty didn't see these mud legs in your eyes. There is no money in it, and for your majesty, you are of course useless."

Seeing that Ji Changze's eyes finally had waves, and the guards who followed him were full of anger on the faces, Zhou Ru became more and more proud, regardless of the pain, his smile widened.

"Hahahahahaha! Didn't you just ridicule my hand and it's useless to your majesty? You, the overwhelming master Ji, don't end up in the same way."

"You, Liu Shengyan, the scenery was infinite when you were young, and it was even more brilliant when you entered the court. In the end, you are not as good as me. No, you are not as good as me. At least I can live. And you, Master Ji, do you think your majesty will Let you live?"

The soldier who was following Ji Changze's angry face was livid, and he couldn't help putting his hand on the saber around his waist: "You are presumptuous!"

Ji Changze lightly ordered: "Get down."

The soldier glared at Zhou Ru unwillingly, but he took a step back obediently and stood still.

"Zhou Ru."

Ji Changze called him. Before he could answer, he kicked the opponent's knee with a sharp kick. The bottom plate was unstable, and he would naturally fall. Zhou Ru didn't react, so he suddenly fell on the ground in embarrassment.

Before he got up, a foot stepped on his back, making him immobile.

Above, Ji Changze's chilly voice came from the bottom of his heart after hearing it. It was not very loud, but it reached Zhou Ru's ears like a demon whispering.

"How much can this official tolerate you now, but I don't want to tear my face now, do you really think that this official is so good-natured?"

Zhou Ru still wanted to struggle, but the shoes that stepped on him used a few more points, making him unable to breathe.

Ji Changze lifted his legs and moved his feet away from Zhou Ru's back, watching him rise up embarrassed and daring to be angry but sneer:

"While the officer still has a little patience, get out."

"You, you... I was sent by your majesty, you dare to do so..."

Hearing that Zhou Ru was still pretending to be fearful of death, Ji Changze smiled: "You should be grateful that you are sent by your majesty, otherwise, it will be more than just bullying today."

"Don't get out yet?"

Zhou Ru gritted his teeth and looked at the red-faced soldiers around Ji Changze who looked stronger than the one he was carrying, and turned angrily: "Go!"

The first time he was taken seriously by his majesty, and he was so embarrassed when he was sent to do something, how should his subordinates think of him.

How can your Majesty rest assured to continue using him.

discipline! long! Ze!

Zhou Ru turned his head and saw Ji Changze striding towards Liu's family. His black cloak was blown away by the wind. He was even more embarrassed. Only the small beads of sweat on his forehead could reveal how anxious he was.

Came here in a hurry, just to save the only child, right?

In any case, it seems that Liu Leping is still Liu Shengyan's daughter, and he still has to be affected by Liu Shengyan. Even if he killed Liu Leping on the spot, at least on the surface it makes sense.

When Ji Changze caused him to be humiliated, he wanted to let Ji Changze know what it means to be the pain of losing a daughter.

Zhou Ru endured the pain, gritted his teeth and raised the bow, facing Liu Leping, tightening the bowstring.

Li Jian went straight in the direction of Liu Leping.

Li Ziqian was far away, but was looking at what Zhou Ru was doing. In panic, she only had time to shout:

"Leping -"

Liu Leping saw it too, but she had no time to hide, so she closed her eyes subconsciously.

A pair of powerful hands wrapped her shoulders, and quickly buckled her head.

Then, there was a muffled snort at close range.

Zhou Ru saw that Ji Changze had reacted so quickly to block Liu Leping's arrow, and it was only his arm that was injured, presumably he couldn't die.

He snorted coldly: "Don't want to tear his face? The official wants to tear it with you."

"Let's go! It's time to go to court, Ji Changze protects the families of the prisoners, I will go up and take a copy of him."

He took the people and left quickly. Of course, whether he ran so fast to join Ji Changze or he was afraid of being killed by Ji Changze directly on the spot, only he knew in his heart.

Liu Leping's heart beat fast because she had just walked between life and death. When she realized that she was okay, she subconsciously raised her head to see what was happening, but her eyes were covered by a pair of big hands.

Then, Master Ji suppressed the painful voice:

"Don't open your eyes."

The situation was urgent just now, and Ji Changze had only time to protect Liu Leping. He naturally blocked the arrow for his daughter.

He covered Liu Leping's eyes with one hand, and with the other hand drew the bloody arrow directly from his shoulder.

Fortunately, he was wearing a heart armor, and the arrow wound just looked scary, and it did not prevent him from playing to the court.

Witnessing everything, Li Ziqian opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but because she was too frightened, she couldn't make a sound. She could only relax and feel complicated, her legs softened and she knelt on the ground softly.

In my mind, it seemed that what she had said with Mother Xu before resounded.

――[Believe it or not, if he is in danger and there is a rain of arrows, his first reaction will be to pull Leping and stand in front of him as a shield. ]

But when it was really in danger, Ji Changze used himself as a shield to protect their daughter.

Li Ziqian covered her mouth, looking at her husband being injured, but still scrupulous about the scene of her daughter, covering her eyes not to scare her, sobbing and crying.

She couldn't tell what she was crying.

As Ji Changze pulled out his arrow, there was another muffled hum, and Liu Leping, who could not see anything, trembled subconsciously.

"Uncle, uncle?"

After the words were spoken, I remembered that Ji Changze said in person that she was his biological daughter.

Ji Changze: "Fuquan."

"master!"

Fuquan literally climbed forward, and quickly took off his trembling cloak under the sign of Ji Changze and covered it with his master.

After the great cloak covered the blood, Ji Changze slowly retracted his hand covering his daughter's eyes and ordered:

"The young lady was frightened, and took her back to the house to rest."

Fuquan hurriedly responded and eagerly approached Liu Leping: "Miss, the minion will show you the way."

Liu Leping stared blankly at the person standing in front of him.

"You... are you okay?"

Ji Changze stood steadily, the cloak covering his body covered the blood, his expression was still faint, except for his face paler, he couldn't see that he had just hit an arrow at all.

"It's okay, you go back first."

Such a natural father's attitude towards his daughter, as if they weren't a strange father and daughter who just didn't recognize each other for an hour, but watched her grow up day and night.

Madam Liu ran in a hurry and hugged her nearly dead daughter: "Leping, Leping..."

Mrs. Liu, who couldn't be determined, was escorted away along with Liu Leping and the little son of the Liu family.

Even with Li Ziqian, Ji Changze motioned to Mother Xu to help him into the car.

Before getting into the car, Li Ziqian glanced at Ji Changze hesitantly: "What about the Liu family?"

Her husband still has a faint expression, as if he doesn't care about anything. When he says it, he promises: "They will be fine."

Li Ziqian glanced hesitantly at the position of Ji Changze's shoulders covered by the big cloak: "Your injury..."

"It's just a minor injury. You go back home first, drink some tranquilizers and sleep for a while, and when you wake up, everything will be fine."

After Ji Changze finished speaking, he turned to Mrs. Li's carriage. Mrs. Li was inconvenient and never got out of the cart. Only withered hands opened the curtain, revealing a wrinkled face.

She watched her husband's only and most beloved disciple approaching her.

Watching him kneel in front of the car.

Watching him buckle.

Listening to him shouting: "Changze pays courtesy to his mother."

"My master has been wronged over the years. After today, the disciple will definitely return her master's name."

Mrs. Li's muddy eyes looked at the soldiers following Ji Changze and the resolute look on the child's face. After thinking about something, she suddenly smiled, and said with tears:

"My master...I did not misunderstand you, for so many years...it's hard for you."

"Go, don't worry about us, I will wait for your return together with Cici and your daughter."

Ji Changze kowtowed again, then got up and left with his soldiers: "Take the soldiers, let's go."

The soldier asked: "My lord, where are we going?"

"Go to the court, Qingjun's side."

***

The court on this day was as calm as ever.

It wasn't until Zhou Ru, who had blood on the court, stood up and said that he wanted to join Ji Changze.

The beard's eyes widened, and he wanted to listen to what Zhou Ru said that he could argue. As soon as he took a step, his arm was grabbed by his father.

Father Hu's eyes were worse than those of the beard, and he reprimanded his son in a low voice: "Don't be nosy! I got news that your Majesty is tired of Ji Changze, so he can only flop for these two days. Stay away from him. "

The beard was not convinced, and just as he was about to break away, there was a noise from the outside.

It's heading up!

On such a serious occasion, is it a long life to dare to make noise outside?

The emperor above apparently thought the same thing, especially Zhou Ru who was still persistently complaining: "Then Ji Changze prevented the minister from doing things, and even threatened the minister, saying that if he stopped him, he would tear his face with the minister. It can be seen that Arrogant..."

He was talking, boom--

The chaotic door, which had always been tightly closed when facing upwards, was actually pushed open from the outside.

Such a big movement caused all the civil and military officials of Manchao to turn their heads and look back subconsciously, the door opened, and the sun outside poured in.

Then, familiar, lazy, and with a natural sarcasm:

"Master Zhou's words have wronged the official."

Ji Changze, who was in armor, entered the hall first. Behind him was a line of soldiers who had been carefully trained and raised after eating and drinking.

He turned against the light, and as usual understated annoyed people: "What are you worthy of me to bother with? The ants are even better than you. You are so useless and useless. The official looks at you. If you are a waste of time, get out of the way and don't stand in the way."

As he said, Ji Changze pushed Zhou Ru away, raised his eyes to look at the person sitting on the dragon chair, and saluted respectfully: "Wei minister Ji Changze, I have seen your majesty."

"Your Majesty, the minister has come to tear you apart."
