Chapter 148: Execution
Chapter 148 Execution
The face of Emperor Qingming is always peaceful.
These objections were in his expectation.
But as Song Dian said, this is because everyone does not yet know the origins and skills of Taoist Xuanqing——
"Everyone of Aiqing doesn't know that this Daoist Xuanqing is not an ordinary person. Before that, Daoist Xuanqing had been at the Xia Family Mansion and predicted that there would be an accident in the Fengtian Temple. Prejudgment of the place where the evil spirit is hiding. , It’s not bad either."
Emperor Qingming said, looking in the direction of Xia Tingzhen, and said: "It is true and false, not my exaggeration. Speaking of which, Xia Aiqing is also very clear about this matter—"
There was a low voice of discussion among the hundred officials.
"It turns out that it was the Taoist leader in the recent rumors?"
"It's just a rumor, is there really such an expert?"
More officials chose to be silent, only making eye contact with each other.
Xia Tingzhen, who was spotted by Emperor Qingming, stood up.
"This Taoist leader is indeed vast. The situation that day was seen by the ministers. Moreover, this Taoist leader is not only capable, but also has great righteousness. Such a capable person is indeed a sign of prosperity in the world."
Qing Mingdi smiled and nodded in satisfaction.
The teacher is worthy of being a teacher, and always knows best what to do is the most appropriate.
Xia Tingzhen opened this mouth, and many ministers all agreed.
The former opposition Yushi also returned to its original position.
If this man really has true skills, he can't help but be beaked any more. After all, the Qin Tianjian has been there for generations, and he can't openly say that he opposes superstition. That way, he would be beaten to death.
I think that the reason why their Yitong Academy has been passed down to this day, the essence of the gentlemen's professors is not only debate, but also the way of life that is not against the real irreversible overall situation.
Seeing such a situation, Shang Shujixiu, standing in front of the Ministry of War, had a hint of interest in watching the excitement in his eyes.
It was clear that he took all the best sons in, but now he still has to say such a contravention for the emperor's will. In these years, he has rarely seen Xia Tingzhen have such a stale time.
I broke my teeth and swallowed in my stomach—Sure enough, I didn’t exert much effort before the big event. With a mouth, I could win the cunning villain that the emperor valued. No matter when it came, I could only rely on speculation on the emperor’s heart to survive. .
Thinking of this, Ji Xiu, who has always been dissatisfied with Xia Tingzhen, only feels contemptuous and cheerful.
Over the years, Xia Tingzhen has taken countless things from him. He was also from a warrior background. Although he could not beat the man with a fist when he didn't agree with a word, he was also a man who was unwilling to accept defeat.
It’s just over fifty, and there are no parents or children under her knees, and many things are too lazy to fight with all their strength.
But if the share in my heart is said to be unwilling, it has never really gone away.
Yu Guang saw that the insulting Taoist offered a courtesy to the officials, and Ji Xiu raised his eyes.
Is the appearance of this Taoist priest really just accidental?
And that Xu Ying...
At first, he only found out something about Xia Han secretly, so he listened to the suggestion of the staff in the mansion to use Xu Ying to explore Xia Han's bottom line, but he did not expect that the matter could develop to the point where it is today.
The smoothness of this incident far exceeded their expectations, so it is difficult not to suspect that someone else is contributing to the incident.
But who will it be——
Is it an enemy or a friend?
Ji Xiu was thinking about it, and when he looked at the Taoist's eyes, he couldn't help but bring a hint of exploration.
In the next moment, he met a pair of eyes that the Taoist also looked at him.
Four eyes were facing each other, and the Taoist nodded slightly at him.
Ji Xiu:......?
Are you familiar with ?
With doubts in his heart, he took a closer look, and saw that the man had retracted his gaze, and the moment he looked at each other, it seemed that he was dazzled.
But never thought that this scene has fallen in the eyes of Xia Tingzhen, who has been paying attention to the every move of the Taoist without a trace.
Xia Tingzhen half lowered his eyes to cover up the chill in his eyes.
The real master behind Shangyu Pavilion used Xu Ying in a small area to make the situation today...
The clues found in the past few days are enough to show that everything is inseparable from Ji Xiu.
I thought that the other party had been safe and self-knowing for the past few years, but now it seems that he is still the foolish and clever fool!
But this is such a reckless man. Not only did he take away his most satisfied son, but he also passed him and put an eyeliner in front of your majesty...
In the past few years, he was really careless.
Xia Tingzhen tightened her hands under her official robe slightly.
After the early dynasty, the Baiguan saluted the Qingming Emperor to leave with the Taoist and Xianfeng Guoshi.
Xia Tingzhen is the last step out of the Jinluan Temple.
At the right time, there is still no half an inch of sunlight between the sky and the earth, and the gloomy sky is straight down, and it is depressing to breathe.
Approaching the evening, an autumn rain fell, adding a bit of coolness to the capital.
More than ten days passed, and soon came the day of Xia Han's execution.
On this day, Xia Tingzhen came back as early as usual, and returned home as usual.
just didn't return to the inner courtyard, but went to the outer study without even changing the official gown.
The official business that needs to be dealt with is placed on the table, Xia Tingzhen picked up the pen, and then slowly put it down.
"Xia Feng——"
The entourage guarding outside the study heard the sound and opened the door and walked in, bowed his head and saluted and asked, "What do you want, your lord?"
Xia Tingzhen said, "Go and see the second son", but there was no exit at all, she sighed imperceptibly, and waved her hand: "Fine, you go out."
What can I do if I go.
can't save, so why let Han'er regenerate other thoughts before dying.
He has personally seen a prisoner who was secretly tortured for a long time--
More than a thousand dollars, it can’t even be done in one day...
But in the process, experienced executioners will not let people die too easily...
At that time, when he saw the **** situation, he didn't feel the slightest touch in his heart. He just felt that the person was looking for hardship and refused to confide the truth. It was his own responsibility to fall in this way.
But now I think that my own son is undergoing such torture, but he cannot be calm.
In any case, it was his own flesh and blood that he grew up and cultivated carefully.
Xia Tingzhen leaned back in the chair and slowly closed her eyes.
Today’s pain, he wrote down.
……
"Mother……"
In the inner courtyard, Xue family sits motionless on the couch, his eyes scattered and hollow.
Sitting on her left side is a woman in her early thirties, with a gentle appearance, holding her updo.
This is the second girl from the Xia family who has long been married, Xia Wan.
Like Xia Xi who is sitting aside at this time, she is also the daughter of the Xue family.
"Mother still has to take care of her body..." Xia Wan persuaded softly.
My mother always pays attention to maintenance, but in just half a month, half of her hair has gone white, and she has lost more than one circle, and she looks much older.
Seeing that no matter how she persuaded her, her mother would not answer. After Xia Wan hesitated for a moment, she spoke again.
is coming!
