Chapter 88 Desperate Gap
Li Jing and others hated Wei Zheng no longer believed that he would falsely pass the emperor's edict. Therefore, as soon as Wei Zheng spoke, the Sansi envoy knelt down without hesitation.
"I have received the order from the Lord, Chang'an is in trouble, and the people are frightened. The thieves committed crimes under the sun, and violated the will of heaven. They blamed the three officials for their trial and told the world to consolidate the foundation of the country. However, when the daughter of the Hejian prince said, the criminal was wronged and had great grace to save his life, I feel very sorry. You three officials should be careful and forgive their merits to make peace with me."
The edict was read out soon. Although I don’t know when Wei Zheng received the emperor’s edict, no one in the audience dared to ask. After Li Jing took the edict, he only glanced at the seal on the top, then closed it in panic and led the other two to kowtow and thanked him.
"How is that possible? Your Majesty personally gave an edict to pardon this boy? Master, did he calculate it wrong?"
Wei Duanyun was shocked and looked at Wei Zheng and others' eyes, and instantly changed from anger to doubt. No one expected that things would eventually develop like this. Not only Wei Duanyun, but also Liu Zhi and others of the Onmyoji Temple who were perjury, were all stunned. When they reacted, their eyes looking at Lu Xin were filled with resentment.
"Hahahaha... My Emperor of Tang Dynasty is indeed wise. Brother Xin, you have finally cleared your innocence. The emperor personally pardoned all your faults. Even if he broke into the Shangshu Mansion, what if the Duke Mansion? You two, why don't you release them quickly?"
Some people were happy and some were sad. Yue Buhei and others naturally heard the emperor's edict read by Wei Zheng. The scholar was overjoyed and hurried to the prison cart and pushed away the two yamen runners. At this time, Lu Xin seemed to be trapped in the memories just now, with a little dull expression. But after seeing the scholar who rushed up to hug him forcibly, a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's the Dali Temple dungeon again, and the Sansi was judged, but I was scared to death. Brother Xin, you have to pay me a big meal."
"Okay, okay, I'll pay you a reward. With you here, I, Lu Xin, can't die!"
Sheng, Yue Buhei and the Yang sisters, Lu Xin's eyes gradually regained their spirits. He suddenly realized that he was not alone. These life-and-death friends in front of him surpassed everything.
"Three lords, Your Majesty's edict has been sent to you. As for how to judge this case, please give me a reply as soon as possible. Of course, it is better to submit the judgment to Your Majesty by the Censor."
"Hmph, why should Lord Wei take the blame? Since Your Majesty has an order, this person should be acquitted. Take him away. We will completely sort out the interrogation process of this case and leave it to Your Majesty for your review."
Li Jing stood up, snorted coldly, and no longer looked outside the government office, and went directly into the back hall. The other two envoys left one after another, and the huge Yongzhou government office suddenly became quiet. Lu Xin and Yue Buhei and others greeted each other for a while, then walked to Wei Zheng, Qian Hai and others, and thanked each other one by one.
"Brother Lu, Wei said he wanted to return your innocence, but he never broke his promise, right? Hahahaha..."
"Thank you, Brother Wei, for running around here, this love will be remembered forever."
"Hehe, the words are so serious, the words are so serious. Don't remember them forever, just treat me to a good wine."
Although Wei Qing met by chance, the two were similar in temperament and appreciate each other, which was a gentleman's friendship. Lu Xin did not say much thanks, and all his feelings were in the eyes of each other. However, Wei Zheng, the secretary-general of the dynasty, was also a third-rank official. He actually confessed himself and even got Li Shimin's pardon edict, which was really shocking. However, from this we can also see that the relationship between Qian Hai and Wei Zheng is probably much more simple than ordinary friends.
"Mr. Wei Zheng, Mr. Qian, Lu Xin has troubled the two elders."
"It's okay, I have heard from Qing'er that you are righteous and have the intention to serve the country. When you see me today, you are indeed a young hero. Besides, for private matters, I am a close friend to Brother Qian, and I should do my best to do my best to do what he entrusts to you. As a court official, I must maintain the fairness of the law and the sacred virtues of Your Majesty. If the three officials conduct an unjust case, it will not only bring shame to the court, but also be criticized by the people of the world. If this is true, it will be the sin of our ministers."
"Mr. Wei said very much. Xiao Xin, it is our unshirkable thing to cleanse your grievances. You don't have to worry about it. Brother Xu entrusts you to me, but I have made you feel wronged and humiliated in Chang'an. I really have no face to face my old friend!"
Qian Hai sighed long, his face full of guilt. Lu Xin quickly spoke to comfort him. After a while, Wei Zheng said he wanted to return to the palace to report his life. Naturally, the younger generation would not stop him, so he gave him respectfully. It was not until Wei Zheng and Qian Hai left the gate of the government office that he took his eyes back.
"Young Master Lu, I can't repay you for saving my life. My little girl, let's kowtow to you."
Suddenly, Li Lingyu, who was standing beside him, walked to Lu Xin and was about to kneel down as he spoke. This action not only scared Lu Xin, but also Wei Qing was shocked. Both of them stepped forward to support him.
"The princess is a body of a thousand gold coins, so this great gift must not be performed. It was a crime of the absurd person who did not know the princess that day. If you hadn't come forward to testify today, Lu Xin would have been in the Heavenly Prison of the Ministry of Justice. If you really want to discuss kindness, you and I will not owe each other, so there is no need to do so."
"But……"
Li Lingyu was supported by Lu Xin and the others, so she could not kneel down. She suddenly looked hesitant and became at a loss. Wei Qing quickly said a few more words from the side, and the princess gradually smiled. Then, the scholar's lewd laughter came to the ears of the three of them.
"Brother Xin, stop talking nonsense. Everyone is already hungry. It's not too late to find a restaurant to eat first, and then linger with the beauty."
"Hmph, I'm full of dirty words, looking for slashes."
Lu Xin pretended to be furious and rushed out of the court, but the scholar laughed and circled around the courtyard of the government office. Everyone was instantly trapped in a happy atmosphere, as if they had completely forgotten that there was another group of people in the government office.
At some point, Liu Zhi and others walked to Wei Dunyun's side. The Imperial Temple blocked the exit of the government office and stared coldly at the seven young people in the courtyard. Especially Wei Dunyun, who did not hide the sneer on his face. The magic power in his body gushed, covering the entire Yongzhou government office.
The sky suddenly became darker. The ground unknowingly frost formed. The moon was the first to notice the changes in the environment, and put away the folding fan, indicating that everyone would stop playing.
Lu Xin looked at the gate, and Wei Duanyun was looking at him with a fierce look.
"Wei Duanyun, what do you mean?"
"It's not interesting! The three officials will try the case. Now, let's settle personal grudges. Although Your Majesty has pardoned your sins, this general manager cannot let you go to justice. Even if Wang Quanyi was not killed by you, he still has a grudge against you. Now that he is dead, do you think this revenge should be avenged by this general manager?"
"General Manager Wei, Your Majesty has issued an order to pardon Lu Xin's all faults. Can you resist the order?"
Wei Qing came back to his senses and looked extremely shocked. He obviously recognized Wei Tunyun, and even more knew that the Imperial Temple Chief Manager had great magical powers. If the other party insisted on taking action, Lu Xin and others would probably not be able to resist it.
"Hmph, Wei Qing, I said that this is a personal grudge, it has nothing to do with the court, and it has nothing to do with you. You can take the princess away, and I will not stop you."
When Wei Duanyun said this, he raised his lips and suddenly stretched out his hands, grabbed Wei Qing and Li Lingyu from the air. The two of them flew out of the government office without any response. Then, the door "boomed" and closed tightly.
At the same time, Yue Buhei, the Yang sisters and Lu Xin immediately exploded their magic power. The scholar hurriedly hid in the corner, and how dare he speak.
"Hahaha, interesting. Let me show you the manager, the descendants of the Wu clan, what are the abilities of you."
After Wei Dunyun closed the gate of the government office, he did not deal with Lu Xin immediately, but looked at the Yang sisters first. Seeing this, Yang Qin, who was already hot, had a golden light flashed on her body, and she rushed out with a dagger. But the next second, the dagger in Yang Qin's hand fell to the ground with a "bang". And she herself was pinched by Wei Dunyun and could not move. Yang Xiu was shocked and angry when she saw this, and quickly took out a bamboo can from her arms, unscrewed the lid, and recited two spells. A black cloud suddenly flew out of the can, and a strange noise appeared in the sky above the government office.
The black cloud is composed of countless poisonous insects. After flying out of the jar, it changes into a human form and pounces on Wei Tunyun. This is the most yin and poisonous witchcraft of Miaojiang. As long as one of the poisonous insects is bitten by one of the poisonous insects, it can turn into pus and blood and die in three breaths. However, Wei Tunyun seemed to be very confused. He pinched his fingers with one hand and changed into a talisman out of thin air. When he threw it at the black cloud, all the poisonous insects instantly froze into ice and fell from the air.
"Hmph, you can come here too!"
Wei Dunyun stretched out his hand, and Yang Xiu was captured by an unstoppable magic power and fell into Wei Dunyun's hands. At the same time, Lu Xin and Yue Buhei rushed to the gate. But as soon as they took half a step, two golden talismans fell above their heads, like two kilograms of thousands of pounds, which made them unable to move.
"There are many monsters living in Chang'an City, but none of them will be as rampant as you, a little fox. Do you think that killing you is considered as subduing demons? Hahahaha..."
"Wei Duanyun, if you openly resist the order, aren't you afraid of being executed by the whole family?"
Lu Xin was extremely angry. Although he knew that even if the four of them worked together, he was not a match for Wei Duanyun. But what he didn't expect was that no matter whether the Yang sisters or Yue Buhei, they could not pass a move in Wei Duanyun's hands. Such a gap in strength was desperate. But he was still unwilling to accept it. After experiencing so much, he finally got rid of his sins and still fell into the hands of a slut. He even caused his friends to die together.
He hates! He hates himself for being useless, hates himself for being incompetent!
"The whole family is killed? Hahahaha, you are too naive. Do you think Your Majesty will really blame me for your bed bugs?"
A cold light flashed in Wei Duanyun's eyes, and Yue Buhei in the distance suddenly fell to the ground and twitched in pain.
