Just in time for rain [恰逢雨连天] - Chapter 236

[236. Chapter two three five]

The wind was louder, and it was about to rain. When Zhang Yishi from the Governor’s Mansion saw that several of his fellow adults were stopped by a commoner, he was displeased and said

, “The court has its own rules of the court. When the imperial commissioner handles the case, when do you need to explain it to you?”

gesture.

A group of officers and soldiers filed in and lined up in the front hall of the inn. Zhang Yushi made a gesture of invitation with Zhai Di and asked him to leave the inn first.

Yao Youcai also compared “please” with Director Lu, and turned his head to instruct, “Take all the offenders away!”

Yachai didn’t know that Comb Fragrant was injured, so he found a rope to tie it down, pushing and shoving, Comb Fragrance hurt so much Staggering, but fortunately Jiang Ci helped him from the side. Who knew that in the next moment, Jiang Ci was also dragged away by the yacha. The others were small, but the yacha had great strength. One of them lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Seeing this situation, Jiang Yueer couldn’t bear it any longer, and knelt down in front of Yao Youcai’s boots: “Master Yao, I beg you, I beg you to let go of my father, let go—”

“Bold!” Yao Youcai didn’t wait for her to say After finishing, he interrupted, “Interfere with the government’s handling of the case, come here, and drag her aside to the official !

”

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yue’er had eaten the weight of the weight and hugged Yao Youcai’s leg tightly.

Yao Youcai was staggered by her and yelled at him. The yachai had no choice but to raise a fire and water stick and hit Jiang Yue’er in the lower back.

Before the stick could fall, it was held by one person.

Zhu Nan Xianji stepped forward and grabbed the fire and water stick.

He, Zhu Shisan, has always been a magnanimous person, and he never owes or owes others. How many times did he actually want to implicate children, women and children?

“Are you really going to reverse it?!” Yao Youcai shouted, “Come on, take this person and everyone in this inn to this officer!”

“Yes!”

Dozens or hundreds of officials responded in unison and rushed towards the lobby of the inn in an instant.

Zhu Nanxian swung left and right with a fire stick in his hand, and pushed back the yacha who rushed up. Looking around, he saw that Zhang Tuoshi had brought more than ten officers and soldiers to protect Zhai Di.

There was chaos in the inn.

The color of fire and the cold light of the soldiers were intertwined, and there were cries one after another from behind, and in the chaos, there were officials who dropped sticks on the panicked civilians.

If they don’t stop it, I’m afraid that even Lin’er will not be able to escape this difficulty.

Unable to bear it any longer, Zhu Nanxian hurried to the door of the inn, closed the door left and right, stuck the water and fire stick in his hand into the latch slot, and shouted, “Zhai Qiguang!”

The ink-colored cloak was placed on the ground, revealing a slender figure, as tall and broad as the moonlight on the lake, and the cloud of light, and even more astonishing was the heroic face, which revealed the dignity of the emperor between the brows.

Zhai Di heard the reputation, and when he saw Zhu Nanxian’s face, his whole body was as if his acupuncture points had been tapped. The next moment, his whole body was shaken, his knees softened and he was about to kneel, but he held it back, calmed down, and moved. Looking at the most chaotic part of the inn: “Stop for this officer!”

Everyone didn’t know what happened for a while, only that it was the order of the dignified third-rank imperial envoy, and they all stopped.

“Your Majesty—”

At this moment, Director Lu shouted, fell to his knees, and bowed to Zhu Nanxian.

Zhu Nanxian sneered in his heart, it turned out that the first one could not get out of the preamble, but he was actually waiting for him here.

The officers and soldiers in the inn and the townspeople of Cuiwei Town looked at each other, thinking that they had heard it wrong.

What did Master Lu just shout?

……His Majesty?

Zhai Di came back to his senses and immediately scolded: “Lu Dingze, what nonsense are you talking about?! Don’t want your life?!”

As if Mr. Lu had never heard of it, he looked at Zhu Nanxian, his shoulders trembled, as if he was extremely excited, tears fell from his eyes, and he whispered again: “Your Majesty…” Then he turned to look at Zhai Di and Zhang Yanshi, ” Master Zhai, Master Zhang, don’t you recognize the two of you? Isn’t the one in front of you the Thirteenth Highness of Xidong Palace, His Majesty Jin An, Emperor Xiaozhao Renzong?”

Xiaozhao and Renzong are the descendants of Zhu Nanxian’s “Bin Tian” Posthumous title and temple number.

Zhang Yanshi’s face was pale, and his lips were almost bloodless. He is a member of the Zuojun Governor’s Mansion. He has met His Majesty Jin An several times in the Dusi. As early as the moment Zhu Nanxian lifted his cloak, he recognized him, but he did not dare to recognize him rashly.

Now it is the Yongji Dynasty, Emperor Jin’an… Didn’t he burn himself in Minghua Palace more than three years ago?

Director Lu burst into tears: “Your Majesty, so you… so you are still alive…”

Zhai Di was about to bite his teeth, this Lu Dingze, in front of so many people, explained Zhu Nanxian’s identity clearly Chu, what’s on your mind? !

He finally realized that tonight’s appearance was calculated by someone.

Anything that takes people or commits crimes is all a show, but the real purpose is actually to force Zhu Nanxian to reveal his identity to save people.

It is a pity that the enemy is in the dark, and they are in the light, so it is impossible to guard against it.

“Come here.” Zhai Dihan said, “Mr. Lu is unconscious, talking nonsense, and gagging his mouth.”

All the yamen and officers and soldiers looked at each other, just about to make a move, when they saw Zhu Nanxian raise his hand, faintly Said: “Qiguang, that’s all.” As soon as he said this, it

was like admitting his identity.

What about accreditation? What if you don’t recognize it? A sentence “Your Majesty”, a sentence “Jin An”, a sentence “Ren Zong”, so many people can hear it clearly, if he doesn’t recognize it, can the matter be covered? I’m afraid it will spread even more.

The boat is done, it is better to let it go and protect the person who should protect it first.

Zhai Di also reacted thoroughly.

I was so shocked and dizzy, what’s the use of finding someone to block Lu Dingze’s mouth? It is no different from three hundred taels of silver in this place.

He was silent for a long time, and his heart became more and more regretful.

When Su Jin was in distress, Zhu Nanxian set himself on fire in Minghua Palace. He went to Wuchang Mansion with Shen Xi to avoid this disaster. He returned to Beijing the next year and learned that his former comrades died and scattered, and he felt guilty. It is no less than Shen Xi.

Seeing His Majesty Jin An again today was supposed to be a great joy, but unexpectedly, due to his oversight, His Majesty’s identity was exposed and he was in danger again.

When Zhai Di thought of this, he felt embarrassed and angry for a while. He walked quickly to Zhu Nanxian, lifted the hem of his clothes, and knelt down. When he opened his mouth, his voice choked up: “Chen—the crime deserves ten thousand death—”

Zhu Nanxian Knowing that Zhai Di was ashamed, how could he be blamed for what happened today?

Who would have guessed that Emperor Renzong, who had been in Bintian for more than three years, was still alive? Even Zhu Jinan himself never had the slightest chance of life when he knocked down the lamp oil. To this day, he still doesn’t know why Liu Yun rescued him.

He looked at Zhai Di, and said quietly: “I don’t blame you, get up.”

Zhai Di hesitated for a moment, knowing that now is not the time to plead guilty, and there are still many things to be dealt with urgently, so he got up and gave Zhu Nanxian again. With a deep bow, he turned his head and commanded in a deep voice, “Keep the door of the inn safe.”

The door of the inn was just closed by Zhu Nanxian, and the inside changed suddenly, and it became quiet. Although the officers and soldiers outside were suspicious, But didn’t dare to break through.

And the people who stayed in the inn saw that even the three-rank imperial envoy from Beijing had worshipped Zhu Nanxian, and although they were surprised, all of them did not kneel.

Yao Youcai knelt behind Mr. Lu’s back, and his whole body was shaking like chaff. He had guessed that the identity of the Nanhu Hospital was suspicious, but he never expected it to be His Majesty the Emperor. Now it seems that even if it is Lord Shen Xi Shen here, he is afraid Couldn’t save his own life.

Soon, the officers and soldiers guarded the door of the inn.

Director Lu was still teary-eyed, Zhai Di glanced at him, and said to a government official, “Give your knife to this official.”

Holding the knife in his hand, he walked straight to Lu Dingze, Zhai Di’s eyes and voice cooled together: “Mr. Lu, what do you feel at ease?”

At this moment, Lu Dingze felt a trace of fear. But he listened to Shu Wenlan’s order and could only act according to the order, so he replied: “Xiaguan… I don’t understand what Lord Zhai said. Your Majesty is still alive, isn’t it a big joy for us to meet again?”

Zhai Di looked at it coldly. To stop talking nonsense with him, hold the handle of the knife with both hands, slowly lift it up, exert all of your strength, and slash down.

The blood sprayed and splashed, and for a moment, Zhai Qiguang’s eyes were fascinated.

He remembered that he was only seventeen in the year of Jieyuan in high school, and he had a promising future. Who knew that his gambler brother had greedy for his father’s money for medical treatment, causing his father’s death. He re-examined the Juren, but did not dare to take the jinshi examination again, because he was afraid that the limelight would be too high to attract suspicion, so he had to enter the Metropolitan Court to be a city inspector.

The splendid future is destroyed, and I don’t hate it in my heart.

I thought I was going to waste my whole life, but I didn’t expect Master Su to find him.

She said: “You are very good, I remember you.”

She said: “This official sees your tenacity, thoroughness, and knowledge of the book. This official asks you, from now on, would you like to follow this official?”

She also said : Said: “Now there are many forces in the imperial court, and in the future it will be impossible to smooth the river. If the iron locks across the river and the sails surf, you and I may fall under the torrent, but in the future, if I have a piece of Su Jin, it will not be short. If you have a spoonful of yours, if there is an inch of my Su Jin’s foothold, I will definitely not lose any of your points.”

Su Jin knows his past and is still willing to reuse it. For Zhai Di, this is not just a matter of knowing and encountering. Well, it gave him a hope in the chaos.

He couldn’t take anything in return, and he could only keep a “loyalty”, which he still has to this day.

Director Lu’s skull rolled to the ground, Zhai Di was covered in blood, and his whole body was like Shura.

He was very calm, his voice was not loud, and it just fell into the ears of everyone in the inn: “Remember, in Yunlai Inn tonight, you didn’t hear anything, you didn’t see anything, if you let this official know that among you , who would dare to say a word to others about what happened tonight, Lu Ding will end, and that is your end. This official dares to kill even the sixth-rank chief of the household department, and doesn’t care how many more lives are added to his hands.”

Zhai Di knew , Killing one to warn a hundred is just the last resort. There are too many people who saw Zhu Nanxian tonight, and sooner or later this matter can’t be concealed. However, even if he could use Lu Dingze’s head to drag Zhu Nanxian for a while, to make the rumors spread out more slowly, and make Emperor Jin An escape from Shu in time and survive safely, he didn’t care about risking his career and life for it.

It was already raining outside, Zhai Di beheaded Lu Dingze, holding a knife, he planned to kill Yao Youcai together, but Zhu Nanxian stopped him and said, “Leave this person for now, he is related to the Tuntian case. , and also said that the person above is Qingyue, you should take it back and deal with it after a careful examination.” When

Zhai Di heard the name of Shen Xi, he immediately put away the knife and replied, “Yes.

” The three of them were about to ask Zhu Nanxian about his future plans, when they heard someone knock on the door outside the inn: “Master Zhai, the imperial censor in the middle of Shu has sent an urgent letter, please look at it immediately, no matter what.”

Di Di was surprised, Yu Yushi was his close friend, and he had only seen it today, so he didn’t remember what was so urgent.

When the officers and soldiers delivered the urgent letter to him, he opened it and his expression suddenly changed greatly.

There is not much wind and rain in the middle of Shu, but from Jinzhou, the more you go out, the more urgent the rain.

When we reached the junction of Chuanshu and Huguang, between the mountains and mountains, the wind and rain had become the momentum of thunder, and the sound was humming.

In such a rain, ordinary people have long since closed their doors, but on the mountain road entering Shu, there is a horse-drawn carriage galloping along.

The man sitting in the car seemed to be a hundred thousand anxious. He raised the curtain of the car in the rain and asked, “Is it almost there?”

Shanying Yeyu covered his picturesque brows and eyes, only a tear mole at the corner of his eye glowed darkly. .

The driver said: “Sir Shen, what’s the matter in such a hurry, you have to rush into Sichuan and Shu in these two days, the Grain Rain Festival is coming soon, and the rain is heavy.”

Shen Xi looked at the vast mountains and rain, and replied, “It’s a matter of help. ”
