Chapter 299

Xie Jingxi pushed the door and entered. Fang Ziqing put down his book and turned to look at her.

Fang Ziqing's public house is almost filled with books. Comforting with books every day is probably a kind of fun of life. Xie Jingxi felt that at that moment, the king of Qin found him as his heir. I don't know if it was a joke by fate. It's really two people who withdrew from the North. The king of Qin is ambitious. Fang Ziqing is destined to be a person outside the mountain.

"Are you still very comfortable here?" Xie Jingxi said first.

"The Hanlin courtyard used to be a place to deal with books. It's not surprising. In fact, it's boring." Fang Ziqing looked at her. "I didn't expect you to come."

"We should thank each other for saving our lives."

Fang Ziqing smiled with self mockery, "I can't talk about kindness. I was on a whim. In fact, I overestimated my ability. I didn't expect your little girl to keep the jade pendant. In fact, I told you otherwise. Maybe you didn't pay attention."

He admitted to his face the fact that he was the little king of Qin. Xie Jingxi doubted that he might have made any decision. The answer to what he said is in the book. However, because Gu Yun saw through it on the wedding night, she never turned over the book again. Naturally, she can't see the hint at the end. Therefore, sometimes fate is so wrong. If she knew the answer at the beginning, she doesn't know whether Tao would avoid many disasters.

"Why expose yourself to an outsider at the beginning? You know, if I see it, maybe..."

Fang Ziqing smiled carelessly. "You insist on asking me why. In fact, I can't say it. Probably from the beginning, I knew it would be such an end. Moreover, you are the only person I can call a friend. I think it's worth giving some sincerity to my friend."

That's actually a gamble. Since then, he has put the biggest bet on Xie Jingxi, and has been waiting for her to come to him alone, and then revealed the so-called fate. In his lonely and long life, this short wait of more than ten years is probably nothing.

Therefore, Fang Ziqing has always been an unspeakable regret, and his life has been destroyed in a dark conspiracy.

"Are you curious if I'm Prince Qin's heir?" Fang Ziqing himself didn't see the heaviness. Seeing that she wanted to stop talking and didn't know what to say, he took the initiative to open the topic.

"No, it doesn't matter anymore. I'm not here on behalf of anyone. Don't have pressure. You can dust it up with some secrets. You don't have to say it."

Xie Jingxi has euphemistically expressed the attitude of the king of Jin or her and Gu Yun towards this matter. Fang Ziqing can continue to be Fang Ziqing. If no one mentions it, no one will ever question the identity of a Wupin Hanlin, nor will he have a half relationship with the turbulence in the capital.

Fang Ziqing shook his head, "no, you see it too heavy. Since I didn't intend to hide it from you early in the morning, I didn't see it too important. As a friend, you should be my listener. If you don't say something, you probably can't really put it down."

Xie Jingxi couldn't say anything more.

"You must have seen the Fang family in Huainan. Do you think I was chosen by the king of Qin and placed in the Fang family to wash my white identity?" Fang Ziqing sat down to make tea, as if he was ready to tell a story, "In fact, it's not. I'm really the blood of the king of Qin, but the reason is a little long. You probably don't want to listen, but what I want to say is that if you have compassion, it's not necessary. Even if the king of Jin wants to cut down the roots, I'm not wronged."

Xie Jingxi was really surprised. She really thought in the wrong direction. The king of Qin was sterilized by the Marquis later. It is really impossible to have children, but the world is so uncertain. Who knows that the king of Qin has another blood?

If the king of Jin knew the truth, he was determined not to save his life.

"The king of Qin is absolutely conceited. How could he make wedding clothes for an irrelevant person? If it weren't for his blood, he would have given up the fight for the throne." Fang Ziqing handed her a cup of tea, "However, when things reach their extremes, they will turn against each other. It seems that a man like him is destined to have a son like me. He does not take his will as his ambition at all, but if you say that I am innocent from beginning to end, it is not. After all, I am the original sin in it, and it is also a fact to help tyranny."

Xie Jingxi drank tea silently and listened to his self analysis.

"I always think I can accept any ending, and it doesn't matter. But when the real thing comes, it's inevitable that there will be some extravagant demands. However, if you can come here today, I'll be very satisfied. I don't regret any ending."

Xie Jingxi put down the tea lamp and said, "I think you can leave. Some people should be born outside the secular world. It's not a crime to define. I don't deny what you said, but I said that the king of Qin has become history, a past that is destined not to be mentioned. Now that it's over, redundant involvement can be avoided. That's what I mean."

Fang Ziqing smiled noncommittally, probably because she felt that she was too optimistic, but she couldn't bear to deny her good intentions.

Xie Jingxi added: "since then, the involvement in conspiracy and the struggle for the throne is usually better to kill by mistake than let go. No matter how you look at it, it is a catastrophe. The king of Qin has blood. I think it should be buried. You should just accumulate some virtue for innocent people."

"Zou yuan hasn't found it yet." Fang Ziqing asked.

Xie Jingxi didn't deny: "it's really not found, but it will happen sooner or later. At least I think so, so you want to tell me that Zou yuan knows everything and may shake it out at any time, right?"

"Zou yuan can make up everything, including your good intentions, and will certainly pull you into the water."

"As you said, you are now going to confess everything to the king of Jin. My involvement with you, or more people's involvement with you, is an unchangeable fact, or do you think this outcome is better?"

Fang Ziqing was dumb, which could be worse.

"So, if you really want to apologize by dying, you might as well do something before you die. Before you die, the Imperial Academy and all Confucian scholars have written against the king of Jin. You can admit it unilaterally. In order to appease and win over these scholars, the king of Jin will not really want your life. In this way, you can leave naturally. If you really want to forgive, you'd better not die too early, otherwise the king of Jin will hate to retaliate against the black scholar The pot will be fixed. "

Fang Ziqing is completely speechless. It may not be easy to want to die these days. He may be embarrassed to die in the short term.

As for Gu Yun, who pretended to visit the Imperial Academy outside, he was really visiting it seriously, giving advice and comments from time to time, which made Xie Jingyu want to laugh.

"Oh, or the Imperial Academy is easy to produce nerds. It's really heartless. Can't you plant some other flowers and plants except bamboo? It's so green all day. Doesn't it bother you?"

"Brother-in-law, prosperity is easy to be charming. What our academy pursues is this simplicity and elegance." Xie Jingyu glanced around and whispered, "besides, most of the academy are single and not disturbing."

"Ha ha... Xiao Jingyu has a future!" Gu Yun smiled, hooked his shoulders and buried his head. "Jingyu, if your brother-in-law has something to tell you, just say it again. You can listen and remember."

Xie Jingyu felt his sudden change of tone, and listened nervously.

When Xie Jingxi came out, they would finish biting their ears. She looked at them furtively and couldn't help wondering, "what are you muttering so mysterious?"

Gu Yun put on a smiling face again, "Shh, you can't ask. I'll discuss the art of controlling my wife with Jing Yu."

Xie Jingyu echoed unnaturally, "isn't it, sister? My brother-in-law taught me that... Cough..."

With such a blush, he sat down to the fact that they didn't say anything serious. Xie Jingxi gave Gu Yun a white look, "don't listen to your brother-in-law's nonsense. Don't bully the princess back. Do you hear me?"

"How can I, sister."

"After saying that, we should go too." Gu Yun took his daughter-in-law and waved to Xie Jingyu as he walked, "Xiao Jingyu, don't forget to invite your brother-in-law to tea another day."

Xie Jingyu looked at his back, and his words condensed into a bitter smile. What he wanted to say was, why can't beautiful things last long?

The next day, the academician of Hanlin submitted a letter of apology and resignation. The crime was to incite the Confucian scholars to judge his Highness the king of Jin, and added that his Highness the king of Jin had the world in mind and personally led troops to rescue the people in the capital from water and fire, which would surely become a good emperor to revitalize Da Chen.

In this way, Fang Ziqing not only took the blame for the scholars and scholars in the world, but also gave the king of Jin an opportunity to punish the scholars. Of course, the king of Jin will not really punish the scholars in the world, but it needs a step to make an example of others. First, to show prestige and second, to frighten the world. Fang Ziqing is willing to stand up as a scapegoat at this time, which gives everyone a step.

As for the end, it depends on how the king of Jin handles it. If the king of Jin kills him to show the world, others won't say anything. At most, he is grateful for Fang Ziqing's righteousness. But if the king of Jin agrees to his resignation and let him go, it is tantamount to selling the face of Confucian scholars all over the world. The king of Jin is certainly willing to be a good man.

So the matter ended with Fang Ziqing's final resignation from Beijing, which can be regarded as the best of both worlds.

Another Xie Ge, who chose to resign and leave Beijing, didn't go so smoothly. After experiencing changes at home, Xie Ge was very frustrated. He was willing to pack up his bags and go back to his ancestral home in Hangzhou, but his wife Xu was unwilling. After hearing that he was determined not to be persuaded, he preferred to leave with Xie Cen.

Xie Cen thought about the relationship between husband and wife and tried to recover it. He didn't take peace and separation as the best solution. He didn't want to persuade her not to succeed. The next day, the news came that Mrs. Xie hanged herself.
