Possessed by Luffy's fruit, I went crazy in ancient times

Chapter 128 Give yourself face

Neither His Majesty nor the Queen expected that a small county magistrate would treat them with such contempt.

The two of them stared at him blankly for a long time, neither of them seeing any fear on Magistrate Liu's face. Finally, Magistrate Liu raised the corner of his mouth to look at His Majesty and the Queen sitting above, and the two of them came back to their senses.

Suddenly, the two of them found that the confidence in their hearts had dropped.

Magistrate Liu still looked confident.

The Jin State has long been rotten at its roots. It was wrong when Your Majesty and Emperor Wei carved up the Wei State, and it was extremely wrong.

They ignored the lives of the people and established an insurmountable class rule. The royal family and the nobles spent their days enjoying themselves, treating the common people as human beings, and leading the nobles to murder the common people. Such people and such a country are rotten at their roots.

Since the separation of Jin State and Wei State, the wars between Jin State and Wei State have continued. Most of them were led by the King of Jin to suppress the rebellion, but even such a person failed to gain His Majesty's favor in the end.

Treating the prisoners of the Wei Kingdom as human beings, setting up a gladiatorial arena, and trapping and killing the Guardsmen. Every piece of evidence here is outrageous.

The fall of Xiaocheng was not so much the occupation by the Guards as it was the inevitable result of the development of the times.

Along the way, he saw civilians who were forced to perform labor, and even civilian women who were forced to become reproductive tools. In order to have a meal and survive, they became tools at the mercy of those in power.

But now, the two high-ranking people in power sitting here are still thinking about how to manipulate him and obtain tax money from Xiaocheng.

Magistrate Liu sighed secretly and couldn't help but snorted softly, his eyes falling on the cup in front of him.

Your Majesty and the Queen did not want to give up the money-spinner of County Magistrate Liu. The Queen began to make up for what she had said for the first time since she was canonized. She smiled awkwardly and said: "County Magistrate Liu values ​​​​love and justice, but I am joking. It’s too late, Magistrate Liu, don’t mind, today is a reception banquet specially organized by Your Majesty and I for Magistrate Liu, Magistrate Liu has been trapped in Xiaocheng for three months, the people are safe, and he has made outstanding contributions.”

The Queen never thought that one day she would need to make amends for her words as a Queen under one person. Even His Majesty had been as kind to her as possible for so many years.

She glanced at His Majesty and saw that his face softened a lot after hearing her words of apology for Magistrate Liu.

Magistrate Liu sneered: "I am short-sighted and did not hear clearly what the queen said. I will apologize to the queen now." After that, he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it.

The atmosphere in the hall calmed down.

His Majesty heard this and laughed heartily.

Even the waiter next to him breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Xu Yihuan stood obediently behind Magistrate Liu. The clothes she wore as a man made her feel suffocated, especially in order to suppress the meat in front of her, she had to tie up three or four layers of cloth.

The food in the palace was very good, especially the wine. Xu Yihuan could smell the strong aroma of wine even as she stood behind her. Even though she had not drunk much wine in this era, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva and wanted to take a sip.

After the whole banquet, the three of them not only ate but also watched singing and dancing. Magistrate Liu looked calm as always. His Majesty and the Queen's conspiracy did not succeed, and the two of them watched in confusion all night.

Magistrate Liu, on the other hand, was filled with anger. The common people were being fooled and forced to do hard work, and women were forced to give birth and entertained by the nobles. The more noisy and luxurious banquets were held, the more Magistrate Liu would think of those common people. .

There is also the past of County Magistrate Liu. He was also born as a commoner.

When he thought of this, he felt heartbroken. After drinking a few drinks, he found a reason to leave.

Your Majesty and the Queen were both rejected by Magistrate Liu today and were not happy. When they heard that Magistrate Liu was leaving, they felt relieved.

Magistrate Liu and Xu Yihuan were staggered out of the palace by the palace servants. Suddenly a group of guards surrounded the door.

Xu Yihuan immediately stood in front of Magistrate Liu with vigilance and looked straight at the Imperial Guards.

The chamberlain glanced at him in panic and said, "Are you bold?"

As soon as the voice fell, I heard a familiar voice: "Go away"

Xu Yihuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw three princes in gorgeous clothes walking slowly with cunning smiles on their lips.

There was a cold murderous intent in his eyes. When he saw Xu Yihuan, he immediately felt cold and said: "Xu Xiaowei, you are very courageous. Sneaking into the palace in disguise is a capital crime."

Magistrate Liu drank some wine and his mind was a little confused, but he could still see the faces of the three people clearly. Although he had not seen the three princes face to face, he had seen them from a distance. He said with a faint smile: " The three princes should ask the Queen and Your Majesty if it is a capital crime."

Hearing this, the eunuch trembled on the side. He was so frightened that he winked at the eunuch behind him and stepped forward: "Your Highness, the Queen and Your Majesty are personally hosting a banquet for Magistrate Liu today. Captain Xu also followed Magistrate Liu in." Palace, His Majesty and the Queen did not feel anything was wrong.”

The implication is that the Queen and Your Majesty have given Magistrate Liu a lot of face today, so you three should stop making trouble.

King Pingzhang and the fifth prince were the most angry. Hearing this, he snorted and said, "That's because the father and mother didn't know that Xu Xiaowei was a bad person. Now that we have discovered it, we will naturally deal with it according to the law."

Magistrate Liu was shocked by the words of the three people, and his mind became clearer. His eyes fell on King Pingzhang's face and said, "Have you collected all the money that King Pingzhang owes to the Ministry of Revenue?"

King Pingzhang suddenly turned his head and looked at Magistrate Liu. The three of them stared at Magistrate Liu in surprise: "You" King Pingzhang's eyes were dazed for a moment, and his face became guilty. How did he know this?

Magistrate Liu smiled softly: "Miss Xu is also the daughter of Taifu Xu. Although it is against etiquette for me to bring her into the palace, it is not to the point of beating or killing her."

When the three heard this, they remembered that Xu Chuan was the legitimate daughter of Taifu Xu, and Taifu Xu was the teacher of the three of them.

When Xu Chuan's identity was exposed, it was his uncle's trick that led to Prince Jin's marriage.

"Then Magistrate Liu means to let this matter go?" The fifth prince looked fiercely.

County Magistrate Liu asked: "What else? Could it be that His Highness thinks that Miss Xu's life should be spared?" Magistrate Liu knew that they would not dare to take action now, and he began to lose his scruples.

Xu Yihuan is not the kind of person who lets others manipulate them. She understood the general meaning of a few people's words as soon as she heard them. She was more inclined to do it directly. She hadn't taken a serious look at these three people when they returned to Kyoto.

As soon as she saw these three people, she remembered the endless assassinations along the way, and the fire in her heart was instantly ignited.

She said: "Could it be that your three highnesses still want to try my fist?"

King Pingzhang originally hesitated to let her out, but when provoked by Xu Yihuan's words, he immediately became angry.

"Come on!" The imperial guards immediately rushed towards Magistrate Liu and Xu Yihuan at the order of King Pingzhang.

The chamberlain was so frightened that he hurriedly ran away and staggered towards the palace.

Xu Yihuan was not a vegetarian. When he saw the Imperial Guards, he clenched his fist and gave the Imperial Guards a rubber rocket launcher.

"Pa" More than a dozen imperial guards were kicked into the sky by Xu Yihuan, and their figures became smaller and smaller until they disappeared into the night.
