Rebirth: The Gatekeeper

"Your Majesty, His Majesty King Ming openly intercepted the decree, seeing no law of the king, please punish him with crimes!" Elder Zhou Ge and dozens of officials of the imperial court knelt down on the ground, their voices were deafening.

The emperor softened his eyebrows, glanced at Feng Xitang standing below and the other ministers, and asked: "Ming Wang, Mr. Zhou Ge said that you have no law and should be punished. What do you say about this matter?"

For two days in a row, Elder Zhou Ge led his group of ministers to plead for King Ming to be punished. The emperor really felt a headache, so he called Feng Xitang to solve the trouble he caused himself.Besides, there are clear streams underneath, so he can't shut their mouths with his stick, can he?

Feng Xitang smiled gracefully, he knew that these officials couldn't be idle, but he was very interested in playing with them.

"Oh, so I committed a crime, what kind of crime is it?" Feng Xichen was surprised and asked Zhou Ge old way.

Old Zhou Ge snorted coldly, does this King Ming want to pretend he doesn't know and get rid of the crime?Where is it so easy?

"His Royal Highness King Ming has no law of the king and disrespects His Majesty. He should be stripped of his throne and exiled for thousands of miles!" Old Zhou Ge's voice was firm, and he didn't flinch at all from Shang Feng Xitang's sharp eyes.

"If you don't respect the sage, when did this king disrespect the sage? I really don't know, so I ask Mr. Zhou to enlighten me!" Feng Xichen was puzzled for a while.

Zhou Ge said: "You have intercepted the decree many times, and the public relations of the decree in the palace of the Ming Dynasty, are you questioning and disrespecting the holy will?"

"Oh oh oh! It turned out to be this matter!" Feng Xitang had an expression of sudden realization. Seeing this, all the officials really thought that he didn't know that he had committed a crime!

"Since His Royal Highness King Ming already knows what kind of crime he has committed, please plead guilty and submit to the law!" Elder Zhou Ge followed the trend, pressing hard at every step.

But Feng Xitang suddenly pointed his finger at Elder Zhou Ge's nose, and said, "Wait a minute! There are still many things I don't understand!" After he finished speaking, he turned to ask Eunuch Gao, "Eunuch Gao, did you just ask me to give you a chance?" Elder Zhou Ge said that this king imprisoned you in Prince Ming’s mansion, is there such a thing?”

Eunuch Gao naturally knew that the emperor was in favor of King Ming, and besides, he didn't suffer any crimes at Prince Ming's residence, so he laughed and said, "How can this happen? His Highness Prince Ming just invited our family to drink tea."

"Mr. Zhou Ge, did you hear me? This king has not made public relations with Mr. Gao, let alone questioned the holy will. Isn't your accusation a little too far-fetched?"

When Mr. Zhou Ge heard this, he was so angry that his beard blew up, "This is clearly a preposterous statement! Eunuch Gao, you actually shielded King Ming, what should you do?"

Eunuch Gao also seemed to be taken aback, "Oh, Mr. Zhou Ge, what you said is serious, our family is just telling the truth!"

"You!" Zhou Ge was so angry that he was speechless, looked at the capital of Zheng, and said: "My lord, King Ming is so lawless and violates the holy will, you are the capital of the dynasty, and you have always enforced the law impartially and never favored yourself. Don't let him do that!"

Zheng Shoufu frowned, he didn't want to intervene in this matter, even if King Ming did go too far, but he would not bring down the Palace of Ming Dynasty, so he kept turning a blind eye, However, now that Mr. Zhou Ge has given him the high hat of impartial law enforcement and never partiality, he has no choice but to speak.

"Is this disrespect to the Holy Majesty... This crime is minor or serious..." Chief Zheng stroked his beard in thought, but looked at King Ming, which meant that he didn't want to speak at all.

King Ming understood immediately, and said with a smile: "If you say that this is disrespectful to the Holy Majesty, this king will remember one thing. In the case of witches and Gus, Elder Zhou Ge openly abused the Holy Majesty for being a foolish king and shielding traitors. Your Majesty is benevolent, but he did not punish Elder Zhou Ge You, why are you so heartless, wanting to remove this king's throne for such a far-fetched crime?"

"You!" When Elder Zhou Ge heard this, Feng Xichen brought out all the things about him back then, trembling with anger, but there was nothing to refute.

The speaker behind him was about to speak, but after hearing what Feng Xitang said, he immediately lost his confidence. If King Ming was punished today, then Zhou Ge must be punished first!

Feng Xichen said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou Ge gathered together a group of ministers, charged such a far-fetched crime on the head of the king, and wanted to remove the king's throne. Is it because he wants to form a party for personal gain and deceive the king?"

"You!" Elder Zhou Ge almost fainted from the anger, the officer behind him immediately supported him, Elder Zhou only felt dizzy for a while, he didn't expect that he gathered so many officers, not only did he fail to convict King Ming, Instead, he was bitten back by the opponent!

"Mr. Zhou Ge, Mr. Zhou Ge!" The officials called Mr. Zhou Ge's name, and Mr. Zhou Ge slowly regained his senses. The emperor had already stood up at this time, and said to the people on the left and right: "Please call the imperial physician!"

Elder Zhou Ge knelt down again, bowed his head, and said: "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. I have been loyal to the court for more than [-] years. I have always served the country wholeheartedly and have no selfishness. Now His Royal Highness Ming said that the old minister formed a clique for personal gain and deceived the king. Wrong, Your Majesty!"

The emperor naturally knew that Zhou Ge was an upright official, so he waved his hands and said, "I know, you should get up and talk first."

At this time, Feng Xitang also cared about Mr. Zhou Ge, "Master Ge is dedicated to serving the country, and he is an example for all officials. It was just this king who wrongly blamed Mr. Zhou Ge!"

Elder Zhou Ge snorted coldly, and said: "How can the old minister bear such praise from His Royal Highness King Ming?"

Feng Xitang was not angry, and continued: "Mr. Zhou Ge, don't worry about it. In fact, Mr. Zhou Ge, you are old, and you can't see and hear well. It happens when you are bewitched by others. This king will not pursue this matter." It’s over, Master Ge, don’t worry about it!”

When the officials heard this, the King Ming turned around quickly, knowing that the emperor would not punish Mr. Zhou Ge, so he immediately became a good person and took a step back to show that he was broad-minded and did not care about Mr. Zhou Ge. If Mr. Zhou Ge wants to pursue it, it will inevitably fall into the shoes of others, saying that he is a majestic old man, and his heart is not as good as that of a junior.

When Zhou Ge heard this, he was furious again, but he couldn't send it out, so he could see Feng Xitang's triumphant smile.

Things turned out like this, exactly what the emperor expected, and he immediately hit the rails while it was still hot: "Zhou Aiqing, King Ming has already taken a step back, look at this matter..."

Mr. Zhou Ge knew that he hadn't grasped the situation well enough to convict King Ming, and that King Ming took a step back, so he would only suffer if he pursued the matter further, so he said: "Since His Royal Highness King Ming doesn't care about the old minister, the old minister also takes a step back, no longer Pursue this."

The emperor nodded and said, "It's very good, it's very good."

After waiting for the court, Feng Xitang deliberately stopped in front of Elder Zhou Ge, and said with a smile: "I heard that Elder Zhou Ge has been in power for more than [-] years, and you rarely enjoy family happiness. According to this king, Zhou Ge is now The old body and bones are far from what they were back then, why not go home to coax your grandson as soon as possible, so as not to delay the important affairs of the court!"

His voice was so low that only the two of them could hear him. Zhou Ge was so angry that he pointed at Feng Xitang and trembled, but he couldn't say a word. Feng Xitang slowly pushed Zhou Ge's finger away, "Hey Hey, didn’t Master Ge just now disagree with this king, why did you go back on your word so quickly? How can you go back on your word when you are a dignified Daxia Ge elder?”

The voice of his words was really loud, causing all the ministers to look sideways, they couldn't help shaking their heads, Mr. Zhou Ge had offended King Ming today, and he might retire and return to his hometown soon!

"You!" Zhou Ge was so angry that his face turned red and he could barely breathe. Seeing that Zhou Ge was about to fall down again, Feng Xitang immediately supported him by the shoulder, and said, "Zhou Ge needs to calm down. The people of Limin in Great Xia are still counting on you!"

Old Zhou Ge was panting, and only stared at Feng Xitang. Seeing that he had stood still, Feng Xitang immediately bowed and said, "I have something urgent to do, Mr. Ge, please go slowly!"

After King Ming left, a group of old Zhou Ge's disciples also came over and asked, "Teacher, did King Ming just threaten you?"

Mr. Zhou sneered and said: "Ming Wang wants this old man to return home, it's not that easy!"

After he finished speaking, he didn't know where the strength came from, and he walked down the white marble steps with a flick of his sleeves.

In a private room of a theater, there are three people sitting upright, the fourth prince Feng Yan, Wang Xuan and Wei Guo Gong Wang Xian.

"Fourth Highness, King Ming blatantly intercepted the imperial decree for a Northern Tang Jin. This shows that he has an affair with Bei Tang Jin. How can you still trust Bei Tang Jin?" Just after receiving the news that the impeachment of King Ming failed, Duke Wei Wang Xian immediately invited Feng Yan, wanting to wake up the other party, Bei Tang Jin would never believe it!

Feng Yan nodded and said: "I originally thought that King Ming was only interested in Bei Tang Jin for a while, but now it seems that King Ming seems to be fascinated by this woman, not only intercepting the imperial decree, but also asking the Queen Mother to grant a marriage. From this point of view , Bei Tangjin really can't believe it!"

Wang Xuandao: "I'm afraid that Bei Tangjin has been defrauding Your Highness the Fourth Highness all along. She pretended to accept you, but she just came to spy on our plot!"

However, Feng Yan didn't think so. He shook his head and said, "That's not the case. Even though King Ming is interested in Bei Tang Jin, Bei Tang Jin may not be interested in King Ming. After all, she also blatantly rejected King Ming."

Duke Wei scoffed at Feng Yan's opinion. He knew what Feng Yan meant, and Feng Yan still felt that Bei Tang Jin was deeply in love with him. Although this self-confidence is a common problem of Feng's family, it is too self-confident. That would be stupid, so he directly sneered at Feng Yan and said, "Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, doesn't think that Bei Tang Jin is absolutely devoted to you, does he?"

Feng Yan was startled and asked, "Is there anything wrong with this?"

Wei Guogong said: "This is indeed possible, but there is also another possibility, that is, Bei Tangjin is simply pretending to show favor, so His Highness has to guard against it!"

Feng Yan nodded, and said: "Duke Wei is right, so if this happens, the previous strategy of this palace will no longer work, because Bei Tangjin already knows everything!"

Duke Wei laughed and said: "That's natural, but don't feel sorry for the Fourth Highness, I have a better idea at this time."

"Oh?" Feng Yan and Wang Xuan listened attentively.

However, at this moment, an unexpected visitor came to Bei Tangjin's Tingxue Pavilion, dressed in black, with a handsome face and a smile, he hugged Bei Tangjin in his arms, "Northern Tangjin, don't worry, I already have If we can solve it, we must be the final winners!"
