A knife in love

Chapter 133

The white-robed man laughed, and said: "Li Baihu is serious. The Patriarch has been waiting for a long time, so let's enter the palace now."

Li Qiufeng bowed and said, "My lord, please first."

The white-robed man didn't give in, he walked up the white jade steps in a dignified manner, and walked towards the main hall.Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan walked behind, walking with their heads down, not even daring to make a sound.I saw soldiers in bright armor on both sides of the white jade steps, holding guns and knives in their hands, which made people shudder.

When you reach the top of the steps, you will be in front of the main hall.I saw that the hall was more than ten feet high, with carved beams and painted buildings, resplendent and resplendent, with indescribable majesty and majesty.Every few steps in front of the gate of the hall stood a brocade guard wearing a flying fish suit with an embroidered spring knife hanging from his waist. When he saw the man in white robe approaching, he bowed and saluted.

At this time, a person walked out of the hall quickly, and it was Yun Feiyang, the deputy commander of Jin Yiwei.After seeing the white-robed man, he knelt down on one knee and said, "Commander Commander, all the officials have arrived, please enter the hall."

Seeing that Yun Feiyang was very respectful to this white-robed man, Li Qiufeng was quite surprised.Thinking to himself that Yun Feiyang's whereabouts in the Jinyiwei were strange, although he had been working in the Jinyiwei for five years, he had only seen this person four or five times.Every time they met, Yun Feiyang always had an aggressive look, even when he saw the Commander of Jin Yiwei, Yang Zhenzhong, he just cupped his hands, never seen him do such a big gift to anyone.

But seeing the white-robed man raise his right hand falsely, motioning Yun Feiyang to stand up, he said, "That's very good. I bring you an old friend, and the two of you will work together in the future to be loyal to the Lord."

Yun Feiyang glanced at Li Qiufeng, smiled slightly, and said to the white-robed man, "Li Baihu is young and promising, Yun admires him."

The white-robed man turned his head and said to Li Qiufeng: "Li Baihu, Miss Murong, just follow me into the palace."

Li Qiufeng bid farewell to Yun Feiyang, and Yun Feiyang made a gesture of inviting him in.At the moment when the two bodies crossed each other, Li Qiufeng's heart moved: "Why is Yun Feiyang so young? Logically speaking, he is nearly forty years old. Why does he look like a young man in his 20s today?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Yun Feiyang.At this moment, the two had already passed each other, and Yun Feiyang had already landed behind Li Qiufeng, so Li Qiufeng had no choice but to turn his head and look behind him, but he saw that it was pitch black behind him, where was Yun Feiyang's shadow?

Li Qiufeng turned pale with shock, and was about to speak when Murong Danyan tugged at his sleeve and said in a low voice: "The nobleman is right in front of you, Brother Li, don't be rude!"

Li Qiufeng was startled, his mind became confused again, he thought: "Miss Murong reminded you well, I must not be rude, so as not to be rude to the nobleman." So he didn't dare to look back, and saw the white-robed man holding his hand in his left hand. The lotus lantern had already entered the hall, and Murong Danyan hurriedly walked in afterward.

I saw that there were three rows of tables and chairs in the hall, full of officials in red official uniforms.In the middle of the main hall, there is no emperor's throne, but a platform with a lotus lantern that is exactly the same as that held by the white-robed man on each side.

Li Qiufeng saw that among the officials, some of the officials from the Six Departments were very familiar, but he forgot their names after thinking about it carefully, and he was secretly suspicious.

The man in white robe brought Li Qiufeng to the rightmost table in the first row, and said to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan: "Take a seat here, both of you."

Li Qiufeng bowed and said: "My lord, I'm just a hundred households of Jinyiwei. All the adults here are the chief officials of the six ministries. I dare not stand shoulder to shoulder with you."

The white-robed man smiled and said: "Master Li is serious. As long as Mr. Li knows the current affairs, he will be a first- and second-rank official position. For Mr. Li, it is just a few feet and a leap."

Li Qiufeng didn't dare to say any more, so he sat down confidently.Murong Danyan saw that the officials around him were all aged five or sixty years old, all of them looked dignified, not angry and majestic, he was delighted, and said to Li Qiufeng in a low voice: "These are high officials of the imperial court, we can sit with them, This kind of face is really rare."

Li Qiufeng glanced around and was meeting the eyes of a red-robed official. His heart was shocked, he stood up hurriedly, walked quickly to the official, bowed and saluted: "Master Hu, I didn't expect you to Also came to the palace."

Mr. Hu smiled slightly, and said: "I never thought I would come to this hall again. Ever since I was offended by the emperor, I never expected to see the sky again. Coming here today seems like a lifetime away."

Li Qiufeng said: "Your Excellency is the pillar of the imperial court. Although you are convicted for a while, will you be happy in the end?"

Mr. Hu caressed his long beard and said: "Master Li is right. In the future, he will be an official in the same dynasty as Mr. Li. Please take care of him."

Li Qiufeng hurriedly bowed and said, "This will kill the lower officials. Mr. Hu is a cabinet scholar, and there is a huge gap between the lower officials and your lord. How can we talk about the word 'caring'?"

Mr. Hu shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Li is young and promising, and it is a very good age to contribute to the emperor. Today, you only need to swear allegiance to the emperor, and you will be the one to take the position of a great scholar sooner or later."

Li Qiufeng waved his hands again and again and said, "Don't dare, Mr. Hu speaks too seriously."

At this moment, a white-haired eunuch suddenly appeared on the platform in the hall.Seeing the eunuch looked around, he said sharply: "All the officials are here, the master invites all adults to watch the play."

But I saw the white-robed man walking down the stage with a lotus lantern in his left hand, and said to everyone: "My lords, it is a great kindness for the master to invite you to watch the theater today. Everyone must remember the kindness of the master. If the Lord seeks glory, then he will fall into Avici Hell, and he will never be able to recover.”

At this time, Li Qiufeng had bid farewell to Mr. Hu, and walked quickly back to his seat.Murong Danyan asked in a low voice: "Brother Li, who is that person you went to see?"

Li Qiufeng said: "That is Mr. Hu, a scholar of the Hall of Martial Arts. He is the chief assistant of the cabinet that the emperor relies on the most. It's just that the year before last he advocated raising troops in Hetao, but he made a mistake in employing people. Losing his teacher and losing his land, the emperor was furious, and sent Master Hu to prison, and he was sentenced to death soon after."

Murong Danyan sighed and said: "Brother Li and these people are officials in the same dynasty, and they will have to take care of each other in the future."

Li Qiufeng nodded and said: "Ms. Murong's words are correct. Mr. Hu was too conceited that day, and he offended the court officials completely. Therefore, when he was convicted, none of the cabinet scholars stood up for him. Talk. These people’s protégés and old officials took the opportunity to attack. The emperor didn’t want to kill him, but he saw that all the officials said he could be killed. In the end, he asked for the death penalty. Therefore, in the officialdom, the phrase "the party is the same to attack the dissidents" is to promote the official and save his life. The golden rule."

While the two were talking in a low voice, the acting on the stage had already begun.Li Qiufeng looked up and saw a person dressed as the emperor, having a drink with several ministers. After the feast, the ministers retreated from the palace and gathered together to discuss something secretly.Then the characters on the stage changed suddenly. That day, the Son of Heaven had changed into a set of ordinary clothes, and took a few servants to travel around the mountains and rivers. In a tavern, he met a woman in white.

When the woman in white appeared on the stage, both Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were startled.This woman is obviously the beautiful woman in white who once captured Murong Danyan and Ma Dongqing.I saw that the woman in white was so affectionate with the emperor in micro-clothes, and they swore to the sky that they would never bear each other.

Seeing this, Murong Danyan looked at Li Qiufeng obsessively, and said in a low voice: "Brother Li, will you treat me like this forever?"

Li Qiufeng said: "Naturally. I want to protect the girl's life!"

Murong Danyan slowly leaned his head on Li Qiufeng's body, feeling boundless joy in his heart for a moment.

At this time, the situation on the stage changed again. I saw those ministers were discussing secretly, and then a prince wearing a yellow robe and a golden crown appeared.Several ministers knelt in front of the prince and swore to the sky, the prince looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.Immediately, a black cloud drifted past, and these people disappeared with the black cloud.The emperor in micro-clothes and the beautiful woman in white appeared on the stage again, and the two seemed to be about to separate, the beautiful woman in white begged bitterly, and the emperor in micro-clothes was also reluctant to part, at this moment, two ministers who had confided with the prince stepped forward , persuading the subdued emperor to leave.After everyone left, an eunuch pulled out a sharp knife hidden in his arms and stabbed the beautiful woman in white to the ground.

Murong Danyan let out an "Ah", with a look of unbearable expression on his face, he turned his head and said to Li Qiufeng: "I didn't expect her to be so miserable, but I can't hate her..."

A gust of wind blew by, and the eunuch and the beautiful woman in white clothes disappeared again. The emperor in micro-clothes and a white-haired eunuch were sitting on a small boat, as if they were enjoying the scenery.At this moment, a few men in black suddenly appeared under the boat, and they overturned the boat, and the subdued emperor fell into the water.The white-haired eunuch raised his hands to celebrate with several men in black.Then the two ministers also appeared on the stage, and everyone's faces were extremely excited.
