Chapter 515: The Death of the First Emperor
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xian laughed out loud, "I can still grow up alive and not be killed by my good father with one sword. It is because this time I recognize my relatives with blood and have merged, right?"
"When I was a child, my brother told me, Axian, Dad is the king, and accompanying the king is like a tiger, how could it be easily understood? But in my memory, he has always been a lunatic."
"When I think I am his son, I treat me well; when I think of General Li, I treat me as the green cloud above his head, and I wish I could throw it as far as possible..."
Mr. Chi looked at him sympathetically, thought for a while, and comforted him, "Your Highness, you don't have to be sad. You are just a father who is not sure. Ah Shi is not sure about men and women, and he is even worse than you."
What's the thing?
Chi Shi glanced at Mr. Chi speechlessly, "Grandpa thinks that the strength of your granddaughter's punch is not enough to open your passage to the west, so do you want to add Zhou Xian?"
Mr. Chi nodded at Zhou Xian as if he wasn't listening:
"Your Majesty cut his finger and asked me to test it again. As His Highness thought, the blood was also fused together. I was so scared that the last emperor was gloomy and unrestrained. At some point, he would pick people's heads."
"But Your Majesty did not kill me, he just asked the palace servant to send me out politely," Mr. Chi said, sighing, "In that case, how can I mention the case your father is investigating?"
Chi Shi pointed thoughtfully.
Everything that happened back then had a reasonable explanation.
Why did Chi Zhu almost fight alone when he investigated that case? Why did they not try their best to investigate the murderer after they suffered a severe blow, but instead disappeared without a trace and directly avoid Youhai.
"I originally planned to immediately clean up the fines and return home to Youhai after leaving the palace. To put it bluntly, our Chi family shouldn't have stayed in the capital. But what you know about later is that your father was seriously injured and lay on the bed for a long time, and he couldn't move easily."
"And, after I saved my life, I became really scared. Was that group of people sent by the murderer of the case your father was pursuing, or was it sent by His Majesty to silence me?"
Mr. Chi sighed when he said this, "I was worried, so I took advantage of the injury and left the court completely with your father, and stayed at home to recuperate. Later, there was no movement and I dared to come out to move."
"The next time I see Your Majesty is when your great-grandmother dies. I will go to the palace and ask for goodbye...that time..."
Mr. Chi said, calming his mind.
He sat up straight, looked at Zhou Xian, and then looked at Chi Shi.
This is the first time Chi Shi has looked at him so close. There are many age spots on his face. Not only does his temples turn white, but his eyes are all pleated when they don’t smile.
Mr. Chi narrowed his eyes, reached out his hand, and touched the corner of his eyes.
"Your Highness, don't worry, that blood is not a big deal. If you don't believe what I said, when you ask, the blood of both of you is the best proof. The Queen is loyal and righteous, and she will never do anything unfaithful to Your Majesty."
Mr. Chi said, bowing to Zhou Xian, "It's a blessing for Your Highness, who accompanied Ashi to find out the truth. Her child has been like this since childhood. Your Highness is the most clear about the affairs of the court."
He sighed, "This officialdom is very different from a life lawsuit. We can dig into this case. There are always reasons for killing people, including murderers and weapons. But the officialdom is different."
"If the king wants his minister to die, he has to die. Whether it is a rebellion or a greedy man, there is no difference. I am afraid that if General Li's affairs are not investigated further, he will not be able to find out any other hidden information."
"The situation in the court was complicated before. If Your Majesty wants to overturn General Li, someone will definitely use the name of the late emperor to make a raft, which is a rash, so it is necessary to have a strong evidence that General Li did not plan to rebel."
"Now there is no restraint in the court. If Your Majesty wants to overturn the case, why do you need one, two, three, and four? General Li's achievements are so great that he has a deep friendship with the King of Runan. The border has become peaceful, and there is no general in the world."
Mr. Chi said, sighing long.
The carriage was quiet for a long time, and the three of them didn't speak for a long time. Until outside the carriage, it became very lively. Chi Shi opened his mouth. After passing the market, after walking for a while, he was about to arrive at Chi Mansion.
"What happened again when Grandpa entered the palace later? I heard you say this, but I deeply felt that I missed you in the past. If we don't come to the capital, it's not that you have nothing to do with your heart and rely on your ancestors to investigate the case and not to be offended..."
Mr. Chi listened and covered his chest with anger. He picked up the crutch at his feet, swept away the previous sluggishness, and stomped the crutch hard, "You little bastard, if you don't piss off your grandfather, you will be dissatisfied."
Chi Shi nodded, "Why would there be a saying that says "Send Buddha to the West? I am very helpful."
Mr. Chi glared at Chi Shi. Although he hadn't entered the capital for so many years, the Chi family had never moved. The closer it was, all the memories of the past emerged.
"I said goodbye to Your Majesty that day, and I have no face, but my mother, your great-grandmother, is the first-class lady of the imperial edict. She used to come and go to the palace, and Your Majesty also gave her some shame."
"After a few years, I saw Your Majesty again. The moment I raised my eyes, I was shocked. It is not very good for us to treat living people, but those pharmacology and toxicology are also slightly understood. Look at the dying people, it is..."
Zhou Xian was stunned and calculated the time in his heart.
Indeed, not long after the Chi family left the capital, his father passed away.
"Your Majesty is not in good spirits, so he just exchanged greetings with me. But before I left, I really couldn't hold it back..."
Mr. Chi said, taking a deep breath, "I could see at a glance that His Majesty was seriously poisoned at that time, and it was too late."
Chi Shi and Zhou Xian looked at each other, and their hearts were shocked.
"What then? Did the late emperor know at that time?"
Mr. Chi shook his head, "I don't know. The poison of the Gu is quite magical. I have only heard of it, but I have never seen it. I can only infer that it is like a poison of the Gu that has been hidden in His Majesty's body for a long time and has reached the final stage of explosion. I am afraid it is not a medicine stone that cannot be cured."
