Chapter 36 Chapter 36 This tyrant is simply a lunatic! ...
Ning Wujie was trembling all over. He looked at Wen Xing fiercely and blurted out in disbelief: "Your Majesty, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Fang Bingyuan's face turned pale, and he was so frightened that his soul almost flew away. He knelt down with a plop, his hair and beard trembling: "Your Majesty, this cannot happen!"
The old man still felt it was not enough and kept kowtowed, and his wrinkled forehead immediately turned red.
Wen Xing looked at the old man kowtowed profusely on the ground and helplessly held his forehead with his hand. "Alright, stop kowtowing. I was just saying it casually."
Fang Bingyuan raised his head, his forehead already bruised, and spoke in a tearful voice, "Your Majesty! Such matters concerning the foundation of the nation cannot be taken lightly! Moreover, Lord Ning is a man of unwavering loyalty, how can he be subjected to such slander and accusations? I, your Majesty, beg you to be careful with your words!"
"Get up quickly." Wen Xing said speechlessly.
Ning Wujie's face looked very ugly.
He suddenly remembered that when he first met this tyrant in Huangji Palace, this tyrant had casually mentioned the word "abdication".
How could someone casually say something that shakes the foundation of the country?
This tyrant is simply a madman!
Ning Wujie gritted his teeth and said coldly, "If Your Majesty hates me to the core, you can just sentence me to death. Why say such heartbreaking words?"
Wen Xing saw Ning Wujie's ashen face, and he looked extremely angry.
He suddenly had a bad premonition.
The military report said that Hantie Pass had been defended. If the northwest had been stabilized, the Ning family would not have been confiscated and exterminated.
In other words, if the incident at the Ning family was the cause of this kid's rebellion, then this factor is likely to no longer exist.
This was nothing in itself. He had always thought that if war could be avoided, a smooth transfer of power to Ning Wujie would be a good thing.
But now looking at Ning Wujie's resistant expression, it seemed that he would rather die than accept his offer.
What's going on?
Didn't you say you hated him?
Wen Xing realized that history seemed to be taking a big turn.
So will he be able to retire properly in three years?
Thinking of this, he suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.
Wen Xing stared at Ning Wujie's face for a long while, and finally made up his mind -
Force them to rebel!
Although he also tried to scare Ning Wujie by saying "he would visit you", it now seems that scaring him alone is not enough.
You have to practice it yourself.
He said coldly, "I thought that since Ning Qing dared to 'rebellion', he must be hoping that I would abdicate as soon as possible."
Ning Wujie's pupils shrank.
"Your Majesty, be careful with your words!"
Wen Xing said again: "Isn't it? Could it be that Ning Qing has come to his senses and wants to accept my presence..."
"His Majesty!"
Ning Wujie interrupted harshly, completely shocked by the foolish monarch's lack of bottom line.
The word "shameless" was almost about to come out of his mouth, but in the end he swallowed it back under Fang Bingyuan's astonished gaze, leaving only a cold look in his eyes.
Looking at Ning Wujie's extremely angry expression, Wen Xing raised his eyebrows.
Very good, that's it.
Hate me even more.
By then, you will have all the power in your hands, use the emperor to command the princes, and finally force me to abdicate. What a perfect script.
Fang Bingyuan was confused when he heard this.
What is this about insubordination? What did Your Majesty say you were going to do?
Why didn't Ning Wujie let Your Majesty finish speaking?
Oh, he understood, this is called being spoiled and arrogant!
Alas, as expected, even Ning Wujie is no exception.
Fang Bingyuan's expression immediately hardened. He was about to give Ning Wujie a lesson indirectly, but at this moment, Xinghe quickly ran in, "Master! There are some refugees on the other side of the lake, and they are causing trouble with the imperial guards who were here to enforce martial law."
Seeing Xinghe puffing out his cheeks and looking furious, Wen Xing was puzzled. "They're making a fuss, why are you so angry?"
Xinghe said, "Because those people cursed the master, saying that the master would not give the people a way to live!"
Wen Xing was puzzled. Martial law was imposed wherever the emperor's procession passed, which simply meant that no one was allowed to get close. How could it be extended to the point of not allowing anyone to survive?
"Why do they say that?"
Xinghe said, "They said they wanted to come to the lake to fetch water, but the Imperial Guards wouldn't let them."
I am fortunate to understand.
When they fled to the capital, they must have been hungry and thirsty. It was rare for them to see a water source, and they were stopped by the emperor's guards. It's no wonder that they caused trouble.
When human lives are at stake, no one cares who the emperor is.
Ning Wujie said nothing, but his eyes swept towards the other side like an eagle, filled with deep suspicion.
Wen Xing lazily said, "Send the order to the imperial guards, do not stop us."
But at this moment, a hoarse roar came from the other side of the lake: "Murder! Officers and soldiers are killing people!"
Wen Xing frowned and looked across the open curtain to the other side.
The lake was not big, only a dozen feet away from the other side. One could clearly see a row of imperial guards thrusting their spears forward, but several refugees were holding on to the spear tips tightly, and the two sides were pulling and pushing each other.
The imperial guards' shouts carried on the wind: "Your Majesty is here! Anyone who trespasses will be killed!"
Then there was a shrill scream.
Wen Xing's eyes darkened, and he stood up suddenly, striding towards the other side.
As soon as the emperor moved, everyone in his entourage hurriedly followed.
Wen Xing walked around the lake as fast as the wind and arrived at the scene quickly.
Among the three refugees, dressed in rags and with pale faces, one was lying on the grass, blood gushing from a hole in his abdomen. He leaned on his companion's shoulder, gasping for breath, and looked about to die. A woman was standing beside him, looking anxious.
Some of the imperial guards even raised their guns to stab the remaining three people.
Wen Xing shouted angrily: "Stop!"
At the same time, Ning Wujie waved his palm in the air, and a flying blade flew away like lightning with a cold light, cutting off the spear in the hand of the imperial guard.
The imperial guards were startled, turned their heads and saw the emperor. They dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty!"
Wen Xing glanced at a figure lying on the grass. There was a penetrating wound in the abdomen, bleeding profusely. He was leaning on his companion's shoulder, breathing heavily.
Wen Xing glanced at the seriously injured man on the ground and shouted sternly, "Call the imperial physician!"
He then took a few steps forward and kicked the imperial guard who had just fired his gun hard on the shoulder. The force was so great that the heavily armored soldier rolled to the ground.
"How dare you kill innocent people!"
The imperial guard hurriedly got up, knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy: "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
"According to the laws of Dachen, anyone who obstructs the imperial procession will be executed immediately. These unruly people have violated the law by defying orders. I will never kill innocent people!"
At this moment, a woman in a sharp suit was applying pressure to the wound of an injured person to stop the bleeding. Upon hearing this, she suddenly looked up and shouted angrily, "We just want to get some life-saving water, and we've already been told to leave after we get it! But these officials won't listen to us and just come and attack us! The disaster victims have fled here, why are they not allowing them to get water? Even the emperor can't take human lives so lightly!"
She was beautiful, with a heroic look in her features, and her words were powerful. Although her clothes were simple, unlike those of the refugees around her, they were clean and tidy, without even a patch.
The woman was neither humble nor arrogant in front of the emperor, and looked Wen Xing straight in the eye.
Wen Xing was a little surprised.
In this feudal dynasty, even the Imperial Tutor was extremely respectful when meeting the Emperor. Common people were even more so, as even in times of crisis like this, their instinctive fear of the Emperor could not be concealed.
However, the woman's eyes showed no respect for him, and were even filled with anger.
But the imperial guard retorted, "Your Majesty is resting by the lake. Who knows if you are taking water or poisoning it? How dare we allow you to touch the water source at will?"
"Besides, their sudden appearance here is too coincidental. What if they are assassins disguised as refugees? It is better to kill the innocent than to let them go, Your Majesty!
At this time, Zhai Yuanqing rushed over with two imperial doctors, and under Wen Xing's instructions, they checked the injured person who fell to the ground.
"Can it be saved?" Wen Xing asked.
The imperial physician nodded, "It's not a fatal injury, but the bleeding is excessive. Stop the bleeding immediately, or your life will be in danger."
The three people quickly laid the injured person down and prepared to rescue him.
Wen Xing's gaze returned to the woman. "Who are you? You don't look like a refugee."
The woman said coldly, neither servile nor arrogant, "My name is Fu Wenxin. I'm not a refugee, but a doctor at a clinic in the suburbs of Beijing. I simply took them in out of pity for the victims. But my clinic is small and can't accommodate so many people. I can only place them in a crevice not far from here. Right now, there are over a hundred people waiting for our water to save their lives."
Ning Wujie's cold voice sounded, with scrutiny: "You said these disaster victims came from Huainan?"
Fu Wenxin's expression remained stern. "The flood in Huainan destroyed all the fertile farmland, leaving the victims homeless. These people begged their way to the outskirts of Beijing."
Ning Wujie said coldly, "The Huainan flood relief funds were distributed years ago, and local taxes have been exempted for three years. The homeless will be resettled by the provincial government."
"Besides, there's the issue of population loss. Disaster victims are under local jurisdiction and are not allowed to leave without permission. So how did these over a hundred people manage to escape all the way here?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Wenxin laughed in anger, "If you don't believe me, my lord, you can go to Shixian with me and ask them yourself!"
The imperial guard immediately interrupted, "Your Majesty, don't fall for their tricks. Perhaps they are assassins in disguise, trying to lure Your Majesty into their trap!"
Wen Xing's cold gaze swept over, and the imperial guard was startled and shut his mouth immediately.
Fu Wenxin was about to refute when he heard the imperial physician exclaim, "It's bad, he's not breathing."
She immediately stepped forward and bent over to check on the injured person.
Wen Xing saw her skillfully pull open the victim's eyelids to check the pupils, then placed two fingers on the neck to feel for a pulse. Her brow furrowed, "It's hemorrhagic shock. We need emergency treatment immediately."
Wen Xing:?
Then he saw Fu Wenxin kneeling beside the injured man, his palms clasped together, pressing precisely on the lower half of his sternum, and counting the time clearly and rapidly in his mind: "One thousand and one, one thousand and two, one thousand and three..."
Zhai Yuanqing was horrified when he saw this: "No! The patient's internal organs are damaged, how can you press like this! It will only make the injury worse!"
He was about to step forward to stop him when he heard his own Majesty say, "Wait!"
The imperial doctors turned around and saw the emperor staring at Fu Wenxin, his eyes gleaming with a strange light, and even a barely perceptible curve at the corner of his lips. "No one is allowed to stop her. Let her save him."
After the emperor spoke, the imperial doctors had to suppress their surprise and step aside.
Although Wen Xing's emotions were not very apparent, Ning Wujie still caught a glimpse of an indescribable excitement and excitement from his burning gaze.
He frowned, and when he looked at the woman again, his expression had become extremely gloomy.
Fu Wenxin pressed the patient's chest quickly thirty times, then lifted the patient's jaw, pinched his nose, took a deep breath, and leaned over to perform artificial respiration.
The officials watching were stunned.
"This...this, this! How disgraceful!"
“It’s immoral!”
The officials shook their sleeves and turned their heads away, barely able to bear to watch.
Ning Wujie's pupils trembled violently. This woman actually did this to a middle-aged man in public... This...
Totally shameless!
He subconsciously looked at Wen Xing, but saw that the emperor not only did not stop him, but the excitement in his eyes became even brighter!
Ning Wujie clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
How could he forget that the shameless and incompetent emperor himself has no shame!
It’s true that birds of a feather flock together!
Time seemed to freeze. Just when everyone thought the injured person was dead, he let out a long gasp, his eyelids trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Zhai Yuanqing was shocked. "This is...how is this possible?"
Fu Wenxin wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up, saying, "He has lost too much blood and is extremely weak. He can't move anymore. He needs to rest well."
Wen Xing ordered, "Carry him back to the camp and take good care of him."
After that, he asked Fu Wenxin: "Where are the disaster victims you mentioned? Lead the way."
Fu Wenxin looked at the emperor in shock, "You... you believe what I say?"
Ning Wujie immediately stopped her, "Your Majesty! This woman's origins are unknown, and it's hard to tell what she said is true! We don't know if the place she calls a refuge is real or just a carefully laid trap! For the sake of your Majesty's safety, you must not trust her!"
This foolish ruler has always been lazy and is most afraid of trouble.
Today, just based on a few words from this woman, you are willing to set off to that place where good and evil people mix?
Ning Wujie appeared calm on the surface, but he was furious inside, and his fists were clenched so tightly that they made crackling sounds.
Fu Wenxin snorted coldly, his tone tinged with sarcasm: "His Majesty the Emperor is so precious, and our place is so dirty and messy, so we won't pollute His Majesty's holy body."
Wen Xing suddenly chuckled, and there was a hint of elusive meaning in that laughter: "Okay, then I'll ask you a question first."
Fu Wenxin looked at him doubtfully.
Wen Xing spoke word by word, "Odd things change, but even things don't."
Fu Wenxin:?!
Her eyes widened in disbelief, staring intently at Wen Xing's face, as if she could see through him. After a moment's pause, she muttered back, almost subconsciously, "...The symbol looks at the quadrant."
Everyone:?
What kind of riddle is this?
Wen Xing's lips could no longer be suppressed and rose high.
Fu Wenxin pointed at Wen Xing and cried out in shock, "You...you!"
Wen Xing's smile deepened, but his eyes held a trace of scrutiny. "However, even though we're from the same hometown, we still have to be on guard against each other. You have to swear that you will never lie to me."
Ning Wujie's brows furrowed even tighter.
This tyrant actually called himself "I" to the woman he just met!
Any other fellows?!
Fu Wenxin nodded vigorously, "I swear!"
She thought for a moment and said, "I swear if I lie to you, then in my next life, and the next life after that, I will never use a fork when eating instant noodles in a bucket!"
Everyone: ???
Ning Wujie: ...
What kind of curse is this? Is it witchcraft?
As if afraid Wen Xing wouldn't believe her, she added quickly, "And more! My takeout orders are always overdue, my potato chips are always broken, and I always have the worst luck getting red envelopes!"
Wen Xing's mouth twitched: "Okay."
The woman continued, "My phone's battery is at 1% and I can't find a charger! My boss always responds to my messages instantly! My workday is always 996!"
Wen Xing: "Enough!"
He clutched his chest and looked at the woman in disbelief: "So... vicious!"
Everyone: ...
They feel their brains are no longer enough.
what happened? !
Ning Wujie's eyebrows twitched violently. For the first time, he felt so clearly that there was an utterly incomprehensible gulf in language and logic between him and that tyrant and that woman!
Amidst everyone's stunned gazes, Wen Xing smiled at Fu Wenxin and said, "I believe you. Let's go."
Everyone:!!!
Ning Wujie's face was solemn. "Your Majesty, this is too strange! You believe her based on just a few words? Why not wait until I find out more about her before..."
"No need." Wen Xing's gaze remained on Fu Wenxin, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his lips. "I know her background."
The tyrant emperor's knowing expression was enough to make people angry, but what was even more irritating was that the woman was looking back at him with the same excitement. When their eyes met, there seemed to be an indescribable tacit understanding between them.
This scene made the nameless anger in Ning Wujie's heart burn more and more fiercely, almost burning away his sanity.
"Your Majesty." Ning Wujie's voice was as cold as ice. "Anywhere the imperial procession passes, the roads must be cleared in advance. We are a large group, and rashly heading into a place where all sorts of people gather would be very inconvenient."
Wen Xing waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's okay."
As he spoke, he glanced at Ning Wujie with that all too familiar, evil look on his face.
Ning Wujie's heart was filled with alarm.
Wen Xing said leisurely: "Of course the procession is too conspicuous. I only need to go incognito to investigate. So..."
"Ning Qing, please be my personal guard."
He deliberately dragged out the last syllable, took a step closer, and lowered his voice, "I believe that with Ning Qing's ability, he will definitely protect me, right?"
Ning Wujie: ...
He just knew it!
Wen Xing finished speaking, no longer looking at him, and turned to the huge group of officials accompanying him and ordered: "Stay where you are and wait for orders."
The other two victims voluntarily stayed behind to take care of their companions, while Fu Wenxin led the way.
Xinghe had already cleverly run to get the horse, and specially selected a majestic white horse. He excitedly ran to Wen Xing, took a steady stance, and folded his hands in front of him: "Master! Get on the horse!"
Wen Xing stepped on his hand and climbed onto the horse's back.
Xinghe was about to jump on his horse and follow him, but he saw Wen Xing waving to Ning Wujie beside him: "Get on."
Xinghe: Hmm?
Ning Wujie was slightly stunned. His eyes swept over Xinghe, who was looking stunned and about to mount the horse. Without any hesitation, he jumped onto the horse swiftly and sat steadily behind Wen Xing.
He quickly called out to two teams of elite inspectors: "You wait and follow the guards!"
After he finished speaking, he rode away.
Xinghe was left standing there in a daze, scratching his head.
Why? I clearly chose a white horse, why doesn’t the master ride with me?
Seeing that the white horse had already run some distance with the two of them, Xinghe suddenly came to his senses and quickly led another horse over and jumped on, "Master! Wait for me!"
