Chapter 291 Variables
Just like Xue Shao's first reaction, Wei Yuanzhong, the judge who was sitting in the court, also thought to himself - is Li Xiantong shirking responsibility and betraying his grandfather?
Before this idea was settled, Li Xiantong, who was standing in the court, suddenly staggered backwards and slapped on the ground in a few steps, twitching violently!
Everyone was shocked!
"Hurry him up and call him a medical officer!" Wei Yuanzhong said hurriedly.
Xue Shao, who was standing outside the hall, was also surprised. What happened?
Just as some yamen runners were about to carry Li Xiantong to ask the medical officer to treat the disease, Lu hurriedly ran into the hall to stop everyone and said, "Don't touch him, otherwise he will get caught and his bones will be broken!"
"ah?"
"He is an old disease, I know best!" Lu said, "At this time, no strangers should be approached, just let him twitch on the ground! He will be fine after a while!"
"There are such strange diseases?" Everyone was stunned.
Li Xiantong twitched violently on the ground, her expression was twisted and she screamed like a ghost on her body. The situation was very scary. Many onlookers were scared away and fled in panic. Even some yamen runners and guards were scared and dared not approach them in panic.
Only Lu was kneeling on the ground a few steps away from Li Xiantong, singing lightly, and singing an unknown little song.
Lu's voice was average when she spoke, but she had a unique ethereal and melodious charm when singing, which was very nice. Everyone present, including Xue Shao, was attracted by her singing and was even shocked.
It is not difficult to hear from Lu's singing that there is infinite sadness and loss in her heart, but it is full of deep affection that cannot be slashed and cannot be wailed.
The emotional singing is the best sound in the world.
The whole audience suddenly became silent. Even Li Xiantong didn't scream, but was still twitching, but he was not as twitching as before. He rolled his eyes and spitted white foam at Lu. His eyes seemed to be as if he was possessed, full of ferocity and perversion.
Lu smiled gently, still singing softly, tears kept flowing down like beads with broken threads.
Wei stood aside and watched, both surprised and indescribable jealousy.
After a long time, Li Xiantong finally stopped twitching and fainted.
"Quickly, carry him to the sheltered room and cover him with a thick quilt!"
As soon as Lu's commander, several yamen runners immediately followed suit. Li Jinxing's soldiers tightly surrounded the room where Li Xiantong was and laid out.
The case trial in court had to be suspended.
Wei Yuanzhong walked to Xue Shao and said, "I didn't expect that such a variable occurred in things. What should I do now?"
Xue Shao said: "I think Li Xiantong is delaying time and waiting for someone to come to save the scene."
"Who are you waiting for?"
"I don't know yet." Xue Shao said, "The key is that Lu family. Yesterday when I talked with her in depth, she hid something from me. Today I allowed her to meet Li Xiantong once, but I don't know what she said to Li Xiantong. When she returned to the court again, Li Xiantong became like this."
"After all, they are couples who have been together for ten years. They have some secrets and tacit understandings between each other, which is normal." Wei Yuanzhong said, "The trial has been opened now, and everything has to be processed and axiom. Li Xiantong suddenly fell ill and could not be tried. According to the law, he can only postpone the court and wait until he recovers. As for some other speculations, if there is no sufficient evidence, I cannot convict him based on his own selfishness."
"Well. Then wait and see." Xue Shao nodded. Wei Yuanzhong was the censor, so he was right to do this.
Li Jinxing stepped forward and said, "I heard from Li Xiantong's tone that he seemed to betray his grandfather. He also shouted that he could not be tried publicly. I guessed that he was deliberately pretending to be sick and avoiding public trial, and did not want to make the inside story of the case public."
"What the old general said makes sense." Xue Shao said, "Li Xiantong was forced into a desperate situation in the court at that time. I saw him strangling his pulse with his own eyes, which may be the cause of his illness. When the old general said this, I also think it was - he really didn't want to be tried for public trial!"
Wei Yuanzhong nodded, "In this way, his next words should be very important!"
At this moment, Lu came out of Li Xiantong's ward. Guo Yuanzhen felt a little annoyed when he saw this woman, and wanted to ask him what he said in Li Xiantong's ear.
But this is not easy to question, otherwise I will become a thief who eavesdrops first.
"Censor Wei, the former husband suddenly fell ill and disturbed the court. I am here to apologize!" Lu bowed deeply.
"Madam, no gifts." Wei Yuanzhong said, "How is he now?"
"It's generally good." Lu said, "He is old and he suffered from this disease when our child died ten years ago. If he is too tired or too excited in the future, he will easily become sick."
Lu's words were reasonable, and everyone nodded. Even if they had doubts in their hearts, it would be difficult to blame or question them in person.
Xue Shao saw from this woman what is "soft and soft" but he can overcome hardness with softness!
"Censor Wei doesn't have to worry. This case can still be tried." Lu said, "Justice Lu just waited for his ex-husband to rest for two or three hours and had another full meal, and he would be able to recover as well as before."
Wei Yuanzhong, Xue Shao and others looked at each other and nodded, "Okay."
Lu smiled and bowed to Xue Shao with a smile, "Young Master Xue, please lend me a new step."
Xue Shao walked aside with her, "What do you think of your wife?"
Lu sighed lightly and said, "Mr. Xue, I know you have a grudge with the fairy boy. But in fact, he will not kill him. I am willing to ask you to spare his life?"
"Whether he has a sin or not, it must be up to the court's law. How could Xue be arbitrary?" Xue Shao smiled slightly and said.
"Young Master Xue doesn't have to be perfunctory to me like this." Lu said softly, "In fact, if it weren't for the personal grudge between you and Young Master Xue, the fairy boy wouldn't have fallen into this situation. He wouldn't have to get involved in this chaos in Bingzhou."
Xue Shao frowned, "Yesterday, you didn't say such things to me."
"That's because I didn't get the permission of the fairy child." Lu smiled slightly and said, "Although he gave up, I would rather die than betray him in some major events."
"He allowed it today?"
Lu nodded, "Mr. Xue, please forgive me for deceiving you. The inside story of the Bingzhou Grand Governor's Office is much more terrifying than you imagined. Even the fairy boy was scared several times and wanted to withdraw, but he was already deeply trapped in the situation and had no choice but to retreat. What you know is actually just a scale. Therefore, now he cannot be tried publicly and cannot let the people know about these things. He can only be taken back to the court for trial. The matters in Bingzhou can only be left to the court to handle!"
Xue Shao's eyebrows slightly sank, stared at Lu's family, and whispered: "Can Li Chongyi really want to rebel and separatist in Bingzhou?"
Lu said calmly, "I dare not speak nonsense about such a major event. I can only advise Mr. Xue not to interfere too much."
Xue Shao smiled and said no to express his opinion is a kind of expression.
Whether it was the words or the micro-expression on his face, Xue Shao knew something from Lu's family - Li Chongyi, really want to rebel!
Li Xiantong accidentally joined because she wanted to deal with me Xue Shao!
Xue Shao nodded calmly, "Thank you for your reminder, but I have my own arrangements."
Lu's brows were tight and he couldn't say more, so he could only nod, "That's good, too!"
Xue Shao smiled slightly and said, "My wife has something to hide from me, so you might as well finish it all at once. So as not to bring any surprises to Xue."
"No more." Lu bowed deeply and said, "I will deceive you all the time. I am willing to ask Mr. Xue for forgiveness!"
"There is no way to start." Xue Shao sighed lightly and said, "Although I am hostile to Li Xiantong, I have no prejudice against you. In fact, every man will hope that his woman can do this way, no matter whether right or wrong, no matter who the opponent is, even if she is an enemy of the world - they will stand by the man desperately, support him without hesitation, and never leave him even when he is in a desperate situation."
Lu nodded gratefully, smiled and burst into tears.
"I've sued my family."
After Lu left, Xue Shao returned to Wei Yuanzhong and others and said, "It seems that the truth of the matter is likely to be the most serious thing we imagined!"
Wei Yuanzhong and Li Jinxing's expressions suddenly changed at the same time, but neither of them exposed the words, just as long as they knew them.
Everyone present had speculations about Li Chongyi's rebellion, but they all thought it was unlikely. Li Chongyi had been a well-known official for decades, and was also a royal relative who was trusted by His Majesty and was listed as a minister of military and political power. Why should he?
These questions are really not something that the people present can understand.
"When Li Xiantong wakes up, Censor Wei may not beware of asking him privately." Xue Shao said, "If the matter is indeed so serious, I can only send someone to Chang'an as soon as possible!"
"This is the best." Wei Yuanzhong nodded.
Li Xiantong slept until dark, and Xue Shao and others stayed in the Grand Governor's Office and watched the changes.
The first sentence of Li Xiantong when he woke up was said, "I want to meet Wei Jingshi and Xue Shao privately. I will not speak even if I have one more person."
So Xue Shao and Wei Yuanzhong entered his ward and left everyone there, with only three people in the room.
Li Xiantong was lying on the bed, with a gray and sick look on his face, but his eyes were shining with brilliance, and he stared at the two of them.
"If you have anything, just say it." Xue Shao said calmly.
"You bully people too much, and you forced me too hard." Li Xiantong said.
Xue Shao smiled and said, "Do you still remember the words I gave you? Doing more unrighteous things will kill you."
"Xue Shao, stop being smarter. Things are not what you imagined." Li Xiantong sneered and said, "The problem of the Bingzhou Grand Governor's Office is much more serious than you think."
"It's just that your grandfather wants to rebel." Xue Shao sneered.
"It seems like you know everything, it seems like everything is in your control!" Li Xiantong groaned disdainfully, and said, "Everything still has variables, but you can't guess!"
Xue Shao and Wei Yuanzhong were both shocked at the same time. What tricks does this guy want to play with?
At this moment, Guo Yuanzhen shouted outdoors: "Mr. Xue, Censor Wei, I have something important to report!"
Li Xiantong smiled, "Isn't this here!"
Xue Shao and Wei Yuanzhong looked at each other and frowned, leaving Li Xiantong's room.
Guo Yuanzhen came forward with surprise and whispered: "The deputy chief general of the marching army, Tang Huaibi, suddenly arrived and said he was here - he wanted someone!"
"Oh?" Xue Shao and Wei Yuanzhong were indeed surprised at the same time - is this the variable Li Xiantong mentioned?
"There are two more people accompanying Tang Huaibi, you absolutely can't imagine it!" Guo Yuanzhen's expression became even more solemn.
"who?"
