Chapter 12 One Mountain and Two Tigers

Weiyang Palace, the Palace of Heart-Surviving.

The majestic Emperor Jing sat upright on the imperial throne, staring at Zhidu who was kneeling on the ground, and lightly opened his mouth: "Zhidu, can the case be concluded?"

"Return to the emperor, the case of Zhou Yang's life has been concluded."

Emperor Jing raised his sword eyebrows, and the power of the superiors emerged: "Has Zhou Yang beat someone to death? How did you judge it? According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, such murders should be abandoned."

If Zhidu hadn't guessed Emperor Jing's thoughts, he would have really blamed him for being reckless and came to a conclusion: "When you go back to the emperor, Zhou Yang did not beat someone to death, and Zhou Yang was not guilty."

"What? Zhou Yang is not guilty?" Emperor Jing knocked heavily on the imperial case with his right hand, and his two sword eyebrows flicked, as if two sharp swords were unsheathed: "Zhidu, you are not afraid of the powerful and powerful, I have summoned you from Qi. Are you afraid of Zhou Yafu's power and betray the law for your kindness?"

Zhidu touched the ground with his forehead: "Return to the emperor, every word I say is true, but there is no false statement! Zhou Yang kicked Han Dangchou, and Han Dangchou was pretending to be dead. Han Dangchou's death was a love kill, and it was a humble thing done by his wife Jiao Dier and nephew Qiao Anwei."

"Love killing?" Emperor Jing was very surprised.

"Well! Even Zhou Yafu thought that Zhou Yang beat someone to death, but you could restore Zhou Yang's innocence. Zhidu, you are not bad!" Emperor Jing praised after pondering for a moment.

Zhidu did not accept Emperor Jing's praise: "The emperor praised him and his ministers are so frightened that he is really guilty of accepting it. This case was not solved by the ministers, but by Zhou Yang himself."

"What did you say? Zhou Yang broke it himself?" This was so bizarre. Emperor Jing's bright eyes were like the scorching sun above the nine heavens.

"When you go back to the emperor, it was indeed Zhou Yang who broke it himself. I dare not plunder the beauty of others." Zhidu answered truthfully, and then told all the things in the court.

After Zhidu finished speaking, Emperor Jing didn't say anything for a long time, and stroked his forehead and began to ponder. He didn't know what he was thinking. However, Zhidu could vaguely guess that Zhou Yang's innocence should have disrupted Emperor Jing's plan. He was rethinking the countermeasures.

"Oh!" Emperor Jing raised his head: "Zhidu, who is the master of the commander? The person who dares not take Zhou Yafu seriously..."

"This is the confession of the envoy, please read it by the emperor." Zhidu presented the bamboo slips.

Emperor Jing took it, opened it and shouted: "King Liang! It's King Liang! The third brother, my younger brother! Zhidu, you are so brave, dare to slander King Liang!"

Zhi was not in a hurry: "Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true. That man followed the will of King Liang and went to Chang'an to find the Prime Minister's mistake. It happened to Zhou Yang that he was involved in the matter. This man was locked in Jingzhao Mansion. If the emperor had doubts, he could personally investigate it."

"Forget it! I believe what you said is true! Go down!" Emperor Jing waved his hand.

Zhidu did not get up, but asked, "Your Majesty, what should Zhou Yang do?"

"Zhidu, do you really believe Zhou Yang's words? Can he communicate yin and yang?" Emperor Jing's brow was deeply locked.

"Return to the emperor, I don't believe it!" Zhidu shook his head, as if he wanted to throw away the impression of Zhou Yang performing ghosts and gods: "He is using ghosts and gods to commit blackmail!"

"He's a little bit of a bad idea!" Emperor Jing's lips cracked and he actually smiled: "Okay, you go down."

"No!" Zhidu bowed and said he was back.

Looking at Zhidu's back, Emperor Jing's brows frowned again, and his fingers gently tapped on the imperial desk: "Chuntuo."

Chuntuo was the close eunuch of Emperor Jing. He had been with him for decades, loyal and clever, and was deeply pleased by Emperor Jing. He heard the sound and heard it and said with a sharp voice: "Emperor."

Emperor Jing stood up and paced back and forth: "Chuntuo, if you say there is a tiger in a mountain, he is the king of the mountain, and no one dares to provoke it. If there is another tiger, what will happen?"

Chuntuo frowned, and a sharp voice sounded: "Your Majesty, there are no two tigers in one mountain, they will fight."

"It is possible, or they may not fight." Emperor Jing looked up at the bracket on the Yangxin Hall: "You said, what should I do when I encounter such a thing?"

"Your Majesty, you made fun of me. How could I know? I'm not a tiger." Chuntuo thought for a while, and he was a little confused about Emperor Jing's intention and dared not guess randomly.

"Just throw a sheep. For this sheep, they will fight!" Emperor Jing turned his head and said, "Go and get a basin of charcoal fire."

"Your Majesty, I'm not cold today, I need charcoal fire..."

"If you want you to go!" Emperor Jing's face sank, Chuntuo rushed to get the charcoal fire.

Not long after, a bright pot of charcoal fire came in. Emperor Jing grabbed the bamboo slips presented by Zhidu and threw them into the brazier. In the blazing fire, the bamboo was simplified to ashes.

Emperor Jing sat down on the imperial throne, lifted his right foot and put it on the imperial desk, which was very relaxed. Chuntuo rarely saw Emperor Jing doing such an irresponsible thing, his eyes almost fell out, but he didn't dare to ask.

"Squeak!"

The door opened and Zhidu plunged in.

Zhou Yafu asked anxiously: "Zhidu, can Yang'er leave?"

Zhidu shook his head: "Prime Minister, Mr. Zhou cannot leave."

"Why?" Zhou Yafu's heart sank. Could Emperor Jing really want to kill Zhou Yang?

"The emperor did not have the will to come down, so Mr. Zhou could not leave." Zhidu said the whole story.

"The Emperor has no order?" Zhou Yafu was a little confused, and thoughts were secretly unpredictable. Emperor Jing had no order, which was even more terrifying.

"The emperor said nothing, this is the will. Prime Minister, let Mr. Zhou stay here. Don't worry, I will take good care of Mr. Zhou." Zhidu explained the situation.

Zhou Yang's mind was like lightning, and he kept turning, and he was secretly surprised that Emperor Jing's emperor's mind was even more brilliant than he had imagined. Emperor Jing did this and obviously had a back-up, but he couldn't guess it for a while.

One thing is certain, that is, Emperor Jing will not be detrimental to Zhou Yang. Zhou Yafu and King Liang have a long battle. The two of them are mortal enemies. Zhou Yang is just a piece that was accidentally involved. Not many of them, but not many of them. With Zhou Yang, the two of them can fight, but without Zhou Yang, they can fight, and there is no need to kill Zhou Yang.

It seems that Emperor Jing still has some back-up skills, so he should keep Zhou Yang in his hand and use it well. As for how to use it, it is unknown.

Zhou Yafu was far less capable in politics than military affairs, and was far less thoughtful than Zhou Yang, and he was still worried about Zhou Yang's safety and frowned. Xu Ru saw his situation in her eyes, feeling very bad, and she was as anxious as something, with tears in her eyes.

"Father, don't worry. It's a blessing or not, it's a disaster. It's a disaster. What should come will come. Father, you go back first, I'll wait for the emperor's will here." Zhou Yang comforted.

Zhidu was aware of Emperor Jing's intentions. After hearing Zhou Yang's words, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, looking at Zhou Yang in surprise, and thought to himself that this person was not simple.

Now that things have come to this point, it is useless to be here anymore. Zhou Yafu thought that he really wanted to reach that point, so he went to Jingdi to argue: "Since that's the case, let's go back first."

Xu Ru wanted to stay with Zhou Yang, but she was worried about Zhou Yang's safety. Zhou Yang tried to persuade her to leave.

After seeing Zhou Yafu away, Zhou Yang continued to go to bed. I have experienced too many things in the past few days, and my mind is exhausted. I really have to sleep well. After sleeping until dark, Zhidu fixed a banquet. The two of them drank while drinking, and the more they talked, the more they became more and more speculative, and they stopped drinking until they had no alcohol.
