"Bold!" Emperor Lei Lei was furious and looked at Li Huguo, "Are you questioning me?"
After Li Yuguo came out of the prison, he came to the court. He asked about the cause and effect of the matter, but was angrily scolded by the emperor.
"Your Majesty, some of these people were forced to get involved. They were not guilty, but why... were they all executed? Your Majesty..." Li Hugo clenched his fists and said.
The emperor took a breath: "There is a saying that I don't know if you have heard of it. It is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let one go."
In the court, Xie Wuji shook his head towards Li Yuguo and signaled to Li Yuguo that enough was enough. Li Yuguo knew that if he continued to ask questions, he might have to break up with the emperor. He said: "Your Majesty, I want to resign and return to my hometown for burial." A good friend of the lower official.”
The emperor narrowed his eyes and said to himself that it was not a big deal for Li Huguo to go home. It was normal for officials to go home, but this was a special period. As the king of a country, if he had just recognized an official and asked him to resign, he would Where does the dragon's face exist
The emperor said: "I have given you an oral order to send all the bodies of the executed prisoners back to their hometowns, and to cancel the crime of execution. However, I cannot agree to your request, Li Aiqing."
Li Yuguo was puzzled: "Your Majesty is surrounded by so many talented people, why..."
"Now is a special period, the most critical period for the survival of South Vietnam. Therefore, your decision to resign, I will... reject!"
…
So, Li Yuguo and Mu Xisha came to Xie Wuji's house to drink tea.
Xie Wuji made the best tea for Li Yuguo. He glanced at Li Yuguo and said, "As you can see, our emperor is exactly a stubborn king, otherwise he would not be hated by so many people... And the departure of your best friend , isn’t it a revelation given to you by God?”
"Just two years ago, Bai Long and I were chatting at the Jiuxiao City Tea House. We talked about each other's goals. My goal was to become a mediocre ordinary person, eating, drinking and waiting to die, while Bai Long's goal was to become a gentleman. , just like Mr. Mu... Mu Wan'er said that she wanted to quit being a police officer in the yamen and wholeheartedly be a gentle wife. At that time, Bai Long was as shy as a girl..." Li Huguo's elbows knocked on On his knees, he was hunched over, his head lowered, looking extremely tired.
"I laughed at him at the time. I said we would eat, drink, and wait to die together and be ordinary people. So we played in a teahouse. My opponent and his opponent won five hundred and twenty-three and five hundred and twenty-three. Lose, just one game away, we can decide the winner, but... but... "
Tick tick, Li Huguo's tears fell to the ground.
Xie Lingyun next to her was silent. Xie Lingyun said, "Sister Mu, can you come out for a moment..."
"Huh?" Mu Xisha raised her head.
"Let my father say a few words, maybe it can make my brother feel a little better. He has experienced the ups and downs of the court for decades. I believe that in some aspects, he can solve my brother's doubts." Xie Lingyun said.
"That's fine." Mu Xisha said. Seeing Li Yuguo feeling uncomfortable, Mu Xisha naturally felt bad.
Now the two of them are of the same mind, both prosper and suffer.
"You are also of royal blood. Many things can actually be avoided..." Xie Wuji said.
Li Yuguo laughed: "Uncle, don't you want to persuade me to join the battle for the legitimate son again?"
"Isn't it good?" Xie Wuji said, clenching his fists, "Take back what you deserve and take revenge. The death of your best friend is not your fault... because you told the emperor in advance, but the emperor chose Ignore and choose to betray your agreement. Of course, from another perspective, you are just a maggot in the eyes of the emperor. You are still valuable now, but one day in the future, if you are no longer valuable, he will I will ruthlessly abandon you!"
It was not easy for Li Yuguo to accept his mission. Xie Wuji knew this very well, so he said this and did not say any more about the rest of the words, leaving it to Li Yuguo's own taste.
Li Yuguo is naturally aware of his destiny. Perhaps just like what the Lord of Hell said, he came to this world with a certain mission and ability.
Now that my best friend is dead, he died because of his negligence and the emperor's ruthlessness.
Li Huguo has been to many places, met many people, and witnessed many emperors. Some emperors were as cowardly as pigs, and their life and death were controlled by powerful ministers, but he still lived happily in the palace, drunkenly living and dreaming every day, regardless of fashion. .
There are also emperors who are decisive in killing and are keen on war and conquest. They feel uncomfortable if they don't fight. They also train troops and build cities when they have time. They are all born war mad.
What's more, he is directly cruel and unscrupulous, keen on beauties and punishments, and harms loyal people. When foreign invaders invade, he will choose to swallow his anger and cede land to pay compensation. When his own family disobeys him, he will kill his whole family and punish the nine tribes.
Among them there are also benevolent emperors who love their people like sons, are tolerant, and have the world in mind. All national policies are based on the people and benefit the world.
The Su Liqun in front of him had a different look. This man had merit, but he also had past mistakes. He was suspicious, but not confused, but he had a very conceited personality.
Li Huguo thought about it again and again. He already knew that since he had become the governor, he was destined to be unable to retreat, so it was impossible for him to choose to retire. Since he could not retire, he had to bite the bullet.
"I think you have made a decision in your heart. You can give the emperor a satisfactory answer tomorrow morning." Xie Wuji stood up and said, "I am a little tired."
"The junior also resigned."
Xie Wuji watched Li Yuguo leave and looked at Li Yuguo's back, but he smiled sincerely. It seemed that at this moment, he saw the magnificent prince and the arrogant young man twenty years ago again.
On the way back, Mu Xisha and Li Yuguo were walking side by side. Mu Xisha said, "Are you okay?"
"Very good. I suddenly want to eat wontons. How about you go eat with me?" Li Huguo said.
Mu Xisha felt relieved when she heard that Li Yuguo wanted to eat. She said, "A bowl of wontons, a bowl of shaomai, and a bowl of tofu!"
"The third child!" Li Yuguo and Mu Xisha said at the same time, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
Mu Xisha glanced at Li Yuguo secretly. She shook her lips and wanted to reach out to hold Li Huguo's hand, but she was still a little timid. She took back her stretched out hand, but just as she took it back When she did, Li Yuguo held her hand instead.
Feeling the warmth in her palms, Mu Xisha smiled knowingly.
