Chapter 554 The Black-hearted Tiger and the Fawn

The little girl walked into the waiting room on tiptoe, like a deer that just went to the stream to drink water. The big tiger was taking a nap by the water, and the soles of her little black leather shoes were very hard.

Under the crystal lamp, a young man sat there, not looking old at all, and it was not obvious that he was over 500 years old.

A glass of black absinthe was held in his hand, like his whole life, mellow and aftertasteful.

"sit."

The big tiger didn't look back, and pointed to the sofa and said.

"Mr. Zhou, I came here today to debate with you."

Stretching her young chest, the little girl stood upright in front of Zhou Huan, thought for a while, and then put her hands on her waist, putting on a majestic appearance.

She has twin tails.

"Mr. Zhou, I..."

"Needless to say, don't worry. Although your grandfather is dead today, it may not be me who did it."

The graceless tiger showed its fangs and didn't care about the deer's mood.

"Mr. Zhou, my classmates and I all admire you. They say you are a good person, and so does my grandfather. You..."

"Sit down, try the absinthe, don't worry, no matter what, your grandpa is going to usher in a new era."

The little girl was a little overwhelmed by the big tiger's amiable attitude, especially his nagging voice.

"Three hundred years ago, Chen Yunying killed those Confucian scholars, but he left a long-lasting infamy and made them famous. Mr. Zhou, my grandfather has never been your enemy. Presidential candidates are nothing. If you want There are countless other options to become a leader."

"I do, but your grandpa doesn't."

The TV in the lounge was broadcasting live footage of the justices entering the court one after another. Zhou Huan decided to talk to the girl about something.

"Your grandfather, and other justices, can you say that you are sick today and don't vote?"

"Yes, it's reasonable to call in sick, but that's not what any of them would do."

Just like the prime minister can do nothing on weekdays, but if it involves the succession of the prince, the abolition of the queen, etc., the prime minister must speak and have his own position. The nine justices can do anything on weekdays, but in this matter, the fate of the empire is decided. At this juncture - it is nothing for other presidents to come to power. Zhou Huan's coming to power will inevitably trigger great changes, even affecting thousands of years later. However, they were absent from this vote. This will be a stain on their lives.

"Second, how do you know that what you see and hear is true? For example, the history of Chen Yunying killing those Confucian scholars?"

Zhou Huan turned the wine glass and looked at the young girl.

"Do you feel it's a little strange, why did those great scholars suddenly go crazy?" "Isn't it because they had deep entanglements with the old aristocrats, and their ideas conflicted with Chen Yunying's, so that was the reason for the petition?"

Zhou Huan smiled and shook his head, pointing to the nine justices who entered the court one after another. At this time, what is the difference between the nine justices and the three great scholars?
The evidence of Zhou Huan's crimes in the Black Continent is conclusive. Even if he was trying to save people and calm the situation, did he have entry and exit documents?Does he have permission for military action?What crime were those innocent people guilty of?There are many other things that even the most proficient in law can only use to defend themselves as a matter of urgency, presidential pardons, special decrees, and trials as guilty but without the need to enter judicial proceedings.

But for the nine justices, their view is to take the law as the criterion. How can they ignore this evidence?If they really declare that there is insufficient evidence or other reasons to exonerate Zhou Huan, they will become a joke, and what they have insisted on for a lifetime will also become a joke.

They can only persevere, just like those great scholars who, although their heads were chopped off, have been famous for hundreds of years and are still regretted by others.

"It was you who pushed my grandfather into this desperate situation. He was like a mantis in front of the wheel, with no choice at all!"

Before the little girl came, she had prepared tens of thousands of words to debate with the big tiger, but now she was so angry that she couldn't choose what to say.

"No, it's still the same question. Why did those three great scholars write to Chen Yunying, offend the Queen, and then be beheaded? Don't they know the consequences of doing so?"

Zhou Huan sighed and shook the absinthe in his hand.

"Before the three great Confucianists wrote a letter, they publicly read a letter, describing their thoughts of sacrificing their lives for righteousness, and telling everyone that they died for their own ideas. Offending the Queen does not mean that they are against the Queen, but call on the rest Disciples and disciples, including Confucianists, continue to unite with the queen and contribute to the building of the empire."

During that period of history, the pure Xiaolu knew very well that the three great scholars and their disciples died without causing much trouble. Faced with Her Majesty the Queen's willful actions, everyone chose to surrender - Chen Yunying for immigration and for the greater good. To achieve the goal, she carried out a major rectification of the empire's thinking. This was a point of contention between her and the Confucian sect.

Three people, together with more than 100 heads, made the empire's opposition from top to bottom disappear all of a sudden. If a powerful emperor has no shame, no reputation, no regard for the evaluation behind him, and wields a butcher knife with red eyes, and Who dares to resist?

The Confucian sect is no longer stubborn, and painful reforms have begun since then. The incompetent ones who were pardoned, and the surviving Confucian disciples have become the new backbone. No one will blame them for changing the sect, and no one will think that they have violated their teacher's kindness - -Chen Yunying told them that if they want to survive, they should work hard for me, otherwise they will be imprisoned in the sky jail until they die.

"A lot of talents have emerged among those people. Some of their names have even been included in the textbooks. They talk about the dead seniors and brothers as if they were actually better than me. If they were still around, they would definitely do more. The face of good grades..."

Zhou Huan shook his head helplessly, saying that that period of history was really interesting.

"Actually, there is really no need to feel sorry for those people. What the empire needed at that time were people who can do things, not people who talk big. The three great Confucians were seeking death. Since ancient times, there has been no reform without bloodshed. They chose death and preserved the Confucian sacrifice of life. The spirit of seeking justice, as for the fools who were dragged to be beheading, and those fools who were fooled into writing letters together, we can't just kill three great scholars and let all the remaining disciples go. What does this mean?"

"You are talking nonsense, Sun Zili..."

"The impassioned scholar you are talking about on TV decided to die after saying goodbye to his pregnant wife? Well, Sun Zili, also known as the Jade-Faced Young Man, was a suave man with good poetry. He also saw through the performances of the great Confucians and Chen Yunying. In this scene, it was guaranteed that he was not on the beheading list, but his performance went too far. Before leaving, he not only said goodbye to his wife, relatives, friends, and neighbors, but also wrote to his companions in other places to tell the story. It was his own choice to kill such a promising person, so Chen Yunying slipped his hand and put him on the list of expedited beheadings. The real talents survived that storm. "

"..."

The girl didn't say anything. She looked at the black tiger with trembling eyes. He must be black from head to toe, including his heart!

"Last question, have you figured out what your grandpa is going to do now?"
