Chapter 91 Kneel down and apologize to Shao Bao to appease the people [You stood quietly, ignoring the two of them.] 【His eyes fell on Wei Yue, and he said softly:】 [“I remember Yue’er, you wrote a letter in blood, suing the Imperial City Department.”] [Wei Yue was slightly stunned, and then remembered his original decision.] [At that time, she was filled with grief and indignation, and decided to write this letter in blood to redress her father's injustice.] [What she didn't expect was that before the blood letter was delivered to the Imperial City Department's Tiangu, she was arrested by the people from the Western Factory.] 【At this moment, I heard you mention this matter. 】 [She felt mixed emotions and regretted her impulsive behavior.] [He took out the blood letter from his bosom, a piece of white silk, stained with blood.]
[You took the blood letter and gently unfolded it. The handwriting on it was a little blurry. ] [All of the above are my uncle's achievements in the North, as well as evidence that he has no connection with Prince Jing.] 【With all my heart! 】 [You feel guilty again.] [Wei Yue lowered her head, full of self-blame, and said softly with a hint of apology: "It's my fault. I caused trouble for my family."] [You comforted her softly: "Yuer, you are not wrong. What is wrong is this unfair and unjust world."] [“Brother, I’ll help you sue!”] [She was a 17-year-old girl, her mother had passed away and her father was imprisoned, such a heavy burden was placed on her weak shoulders.] What can she do? [She just felt wronged. Her father had lived a clean life and devoted his life to the Daqing Kingdom, but in the end he ended up like this.] [She mustered up her courage and risked her life just to seek justice and a just trial.] [I don’t want my father to die in obscurity! ] [But this world doesn’t allow it! ] [However, the world is cruel and ruthless, and refuses to give her any comfort. ] [After hearing this, Wei Yue's eyes became moist again.] [You turned around and looked at Dong Jie and said calmly: "I won't accept your order."] [Dong Jie's expression suddenly turned ugly. He obviously didn't expect you to reject the order so directly.] [He knew very well that if Lu Chen and the Empress Dowager joined forces, the consequences would be disastrous.] [After hearing this, Lu Lu on the side looked delighted. ]
[Dong Jie took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that he had to show enough sincerity to save the situation.] [He said with a stiff upper lip: "Master Bao, you can't reject His Majesty's order just because Dong Jie was rash for a moment. His Majesty is sincere."] [He knew that his words were not powerful enough, so he took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said, "I, Dong Jie, will kneel down and apologize to Shao Bao today, okay?"] 【That’s it! 】 [He knelt on the ground without hesitation and bowed deeply.] [The surrounding Jinwu Guard soldiers showed surprised expressions when they saw this.] [They just saw Dong Jie standing there with a "confident" look, and in the blink of an eye he knelt in front of Lu Chen. Such a change made them feel unbelievable.] [The soldiers of the Jinwu Guard were all close confidants of Dong Jie. They knew very well that if this matter got out, the reputation of the Jinwu Guard would be greatly affected.] 【then!】 [They all advised: "Master Dong, please think twice!"] 【Dong Jie shouted angrily: "Kneel down and apologize to Shao Bao!" His voice was full of majesty. 】 [The generals looked at each other, not knowing what to do.] [All the Jinwu Guards showed anger on their faces. As the emperor's direct guards, they have always thought highly of themselves. But today, they were forced to kneel before Lu Chen, a Taoist priest who had no official status. This was undoubtedly a great insult to their dignity.] [But Dong Jie's next cold words were heard: "Those who disobey will be treated as those who disobey orders in battle!"] [The consequences of disobeying orders and deserting the battlefield are the same, that is, immediate execution, so they dare not hesitate any more. ] [Kneel down in unison! ] 【Everyone fell to the ground.】 【“Please forgive me, young master!”】 [All the Jinwu Guards had expressions of dissatisfaction on their faces. ] 【Lu Yu just sneered. 】 [Wei Yue stood aside, stunned.] [Today's events had too many twists and turns. The leader of the Jinwu Guard, who was so arrogant just now, was acting like this now. This made her feel a little unbelievable.] [She turned to look at her cousin Lu Chen, who had maintained a calm and composed expression since entering the hospital.] [She couldn't help but admire him very much! ] [You looked at Dong Jie and continued: "Go back and tell your master this: If the emperor made a mistake, does that mean he has no guilt?"] [After hearing this, Dong Jie clenched his fists. He wanted to order the killing of Lu Chen and the other two.] 【But there is nothing we can do! 】 [You look at Lu Lu again and say: "Take back the golden arrow as well."] [Lu Lu was stunned. He obviously didn't expect you to reject the Empress Dowager's kindness so directly.]
[“Young Master, please give it some thought!”] [After hearing this, Shijie raised his head quickly, his eyes sparkling.] [Lu Chen has now rejected the wishes of both the current emperor and the Empress Dowager.] [Both forces have been offended! ] [Are you seeking death in Kyoto now? 】 [Do you really think that a great master's younger brother can protect him? 】 [Dong Jie did not stop, things had not yet developed to the worst. ] [He immediately led his men back to report that the Western Factory had been destroyed, which also meant that one of the Empress Dowager's hands and feet had been cut off.] [As he left, Dong Jie gave Lu Lu a fierce look.] [The two have equal status in both camps. ] 【See who will have the last laugh! 】 [Lu Lu also sighed and left in a hurry. ] [You and Lu Yu walked out of the West Factory and headed for the Imperial City Department, but no one dared to stop you.] 【Imperial City Division! 】 [This is also the only place that can reach the sky, across the Censorate, the Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Justice. ] [Beat the celestial drum and let it reach the heavens! 】 [The Jinwu Guards mobilized more than 10,000 troops, and the momentum was so great that the streets and alleys of Kyoto were instantly boiling. ] [People stopped to watch, talking one after another, their faces full of surprise and curiosity.] [Old people in Kyoto shook their heads and sighed, their eyes filled with worry and uneasiness, and they lamented: "Kyoto is going to change."] [As they recalled the decade of peace, they could not help but feel an inexplicable fear.] [In the wine shop and teahouse, people sat together and talked about the gracefulness of Shao Bao Lu Chen crossing the Yuetang River. ] [The story of Yuetang River has spread all over Kyoto, and there are even more rumors about letters left in fish bellies and stone tablets falling from the sky! ] [“Lu Chen has a rebellious heart!” someone whispered.] [The topic of Shao Bao going to Beijing became a hot topic for people to talk about after dinner, and people on the streets were discussing Lu Chen's coming to Beijing and his possible intentions. ] [At the same time, the events of the Northland were mentioned again, and many old names reappeared.] [Many people from fifteen years ago still remember the scene that night when Kyoto was as bright as day.] [The poor people in Kyoto said that Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu of Lu Jiaxuan were good people.] [However, their words are not taken seriously, and no one cares about them! ]
[Among the many young men in Kyoto, they considered themselves "talented", but their opinions on Lu Chen were very different. ] [They contemptuously called Lu Chen a "traitorous minister", and the crime of treason became more and more serious in their mouths. ] 【Three people become tigers! 】 [Their hostility and dissatisfaction may stem from family conflicts of interest, differences in political stance, or personal grudges.] [There are many aristocratic families in Jiangnan, and most of them tend to seek peace and prosperity. ] [The two countries of Beifeng have lived in harmony for fifteen years, and countless scholars and officials praised this as "a wise policy for the stability of the country." ] 【The Lu family army was stigmatized as a stumbling block that destroyed the friendship between the two countries. 】 [Even worse, some people even spent a lot of money to spread rumors in the market, encouraging Lu Chen to rebel.] [In the memorials to the Censorate, the voices impeaching this Lu Shaobao increased day by day, and more and more officials began to submit memorials, demanding that Lu Chen be severely punished.] [Under the instigation of some people, this has become a popular appeal among the people of Kyoto. ] [“Please kill Lu Chen to calm the people.”] After completing the basic Kyoto copy, the ten-year simulation will be accelerated to the end!
