Chapter 528 It Turns Out to be Zhou Bi



Chapter 528 It Turns Out to be Zhou Bi

The eunuch didn't know that he was already doomed to die, and he just cursed the Censor.

Zong Qinke, the Imperial Censor, was extremely angry. He stood up and hit the eunuch on the head with his imperial tablet.

"You damned dog-head, you dared to stop the people from the Censorate from going to the palace to see the emperor? Who gave you the courage to do this?"

The old man was threatening and seemed to be asking about the person behind him.

The eunuch was fooled and immediately shouted:

"You dare to hit me, but do you know who the Huangmen official is now?"

"That's the brother-in-law of Liang Wang Wu Sansi, his name is Zhu Liji!"

"If you dare to hit me in public, you are hitting Zhu Guoqi in the face. If you hit Zhu Guoqi in the face, it means you don't take His Royal Highness Prince Liang seriously!"

King Wu Sansi of Liang, who was lying down and had been shot, was at a loss when he heard this.

How could he not know that this eunuch was asking for a bribe by relying on his other brother-in-law Zhu Liji.

My previous brother-in-law, Zhu Liren, died because of Li Cunxi.

If this brother-in-law Zhu Liji also died for accepting bribes, the person in the family would probably hang himself.

The eunuch was furious, and he was also unable to keep the door open, so he shouted angrily:

"If you have the guts, why don't you try to touch me?"

"You don't dare, do you? If you don't dare, just stand aside and don't block my way!"

After the eunuch said this, he strode up to the Censor without caring how others looked at him.

"I'm telling you, I've been hit a few times by the emperor because of you. Without 3200 taels of silver today, you can't even think about seeing the emperor!"

The Censor stiffened his neck and vowed to never forsake such treacherous and evil people.

He raised the imperial sceptre and hit the eunuch on the head with such force that the eunuch took several steps back.

The eunuch gnashed his teeth and wished he could immediately report to the eunuch official Zhu Liji and ask Wu Sansi to kill this small censor.

"Just wait for me. If you can meet the Saint, then my master is incapable!"

The Censor was still not satisfied and pretended to raise his imperial scepter to hit the eunuch in the face.

As it turned around and ran away, he didn't even give him the chance.

After the eunuch ran out, the officials' attention shifted from the door to Wu Sansi's face.

The trembling censor Zong Qinke gritted his teeth and trembled as he came to Li Cunxi and said:

"Duke Qin!"

"Later in the court, I will severely denounce that Huangmen official Zhu Liji!"

"I hope Duke Qin can speak up for justice and not let this villain disrupt the atmosphere of the court!"

Li Cunxi was also quite angry. He nodded heavily upon hearing this, but did not say anything. He just waved at the Censor.

Seeing Li Cunxi waving at him, the Censor immediately picked up his official robe and walked towards Li Cunxi, and soon arrived in front of Li Cunxi.

"Zhou Bi, why didn't you come to me before you went to court to meet the emperor? Instead, you let this villain humiliate you first!"

Li Cunxi was very resentful.

When the officials heard this, they immediately knew that this Censor knew Li Cunxi, and that the two had a close relationship.

"Humph, this bastard is asking for a bribe, and he actually wants to take it from someone Lord Li knows. He's going to get what he wants this time!"

"That's right. The master and disciple duo of King Wei and Lord Li have already killed two eunuchs. The one today will probably be the third one!"

"That's right. This bad habit has revived. It's really bad. We must put an end to it!"

The officials were talking about it, not caring about Wu Sansi's life or death.

Li Cunxi met Zhou Bi, the censor who was being bullied, in Liang County when he was hunting for the first time on behalf of the emperor.

At that time, Crown Prince Li Xian and Prince Li Dan conspired to remove themselves from the court. In that bloody storm, Zhou Bi was one of the vested interests.

At this moment, Li Cunxi was quite happy to see Zhou Bi again.

However, when his disciples and former officials came to the capital, they did not come to pay themselves a visit to him first, but instead came to see the emperor first.

Zhou Bi smiled helplessly, holding the imperial tablet, and bowed to Li Cunxi.

"Student Zhou Bi, I pay my respects to my teacher."

"After we parted in Liang County, I never saw my teacher again. I only heard good news from him occasionally, and I was very happy."

He was very smart. He didn't tell the reason right away, but instead told the past.

Then, he changed the subject and said:

"Since I became your disciple, I have not dared to neglect my duties, fearing that I might bring disgrace upon you. I have toiled day and night for more than a year. With your protection, I was fortunate enough to be promoted to the position of Censor."

"I went to Beijing the day before yesterday and asked around. I did find my teacher's residence, but unfortunately I didn't get to see him."

Li Cunxi was also a man who knew what was going on. After hearing this, he knew what went wrong.

It was true that he came back yesterday afternoon, although it was late, but the servants in the mansion did not tell him about this.

Zhou Bi accepted his kindness, so naturally he would not deceive him like others did, and he would never dare to do so.

If that's the case, then the problem lies in his house.

Li Cunxi kept this matter in mind and said:

"In that case, come to my residence after the court session. I'll give you some silver so you can pay the regular silver."

With such a big pit, naturally someone has to dig it.

When Wu Sansi heard this, he jumped up and down.

"Li Cunxi, don't talk nonsense!"

"This has nothing to do with Zhu Liji. It was all the eunuch who took the initiative to ask for it. It has nothing to do with anyone else."

Li Cunxi glanced casually at Liang Wang Wu Sansi, then turned to Zhou Bi who was standing beside him.

"Please sit down. My disciples, Li Cunxi, have to pay a fee to the emperor when they come to Beijing. This bad habit must be eradicated."

Wu Chengsi nodded, agreeing very much with what Li Cunxi said.

In those days, he was asked for salary by the eunuch, and in his hot-blooded state, he beat the eunuch to death.

A few years ago, when Li Cunxi went to court for the first time, he was also asked for silver by the eunuch. Li Cunxi simply cut the grass and rooted out the problem, beating the eunuch official Zhu Liren to death.

Now, Zhu Liren’s younger brother Zhu Liji is serving as the Huangmen official. He has stepped forward to seek his own death. There is no reason not to kill him.

"I'm so angry!"

Just as the air suddenly became quiet, Zong Qinke, who was so angry that he was jumping up and down, suddenly roared.

"This kind of bad habit appears again and again, it's because we have spoiled them too much!"

"I must participate vigorously, participate vigorously!!"

"It is unjust that this thief should not be killed!!"

"I don't care if he's a royal relative or a relative of the King of Liang!"

"This time, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will accuse him of the crime of deceiving the emperor!!"

Zong Qinke gritted his teeth, as if he had suffered a great insult.

His younger brother Zong Chuke hurried over, supported Zong Qinke's arm, and helped Zong Qinke calm down.

"Brother, brother, there is no need. Wait until the court session before you criticize this worse-than-pigs-and-dogs!"

"The entire court is watching today. This thing will definitely not get away from him."
