Chapter 122: Embattled (Thanks to Tsukihime 002 for the monthly pass)

After the heavy rain, the heavy rain began to clear, but the royal city of Yingdu, the largest capital in the south, changed in one day.

If Ao Yuejiao has been plotting for ten years, Ling Yin, the son, in one day, has been killed by the hands of the wolf, and the princess has become a rebel who has been punished in one day, and has been charged with assassinating the king of Chu, the king of Chu was attacked in the palace, his life was in danger, he was bedridden, and the ministers were not allowed to see each other.

The three people at the top of Da Chu's power.

Suddenly the dead are dead, and the unseen is gone......

can only listen to the words of Ruo Ao Yuejiao, hastily changed Gongzi Xi to the throne as king, and the voice of deposing the identity of the crown prince spread throughout the city.

Ao Yuejiao cleaned up all the palace people and guards inside and outside the entire East Palace and the Chu Palace, but did not find the thousands of Phoenix Yu guards guarding the East Palace and all the close palace people of Mihuang, so he executed nearly 1,000 palace guards in the name of unfavorable escort, and everyone's heads hung outside the palace city, and the blood meandered down into a river, threatening the whole city.

Under the instruction of Ruo Ao Yuejiao, the Tiger Forbidden Army and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division searched and arrested the rebels and all their rebels.

In the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, people from Lu and the others came to fight horses, and Liu Yi said in surprise, "Commander Lu, how are you ?......?"

Lived?

Lu Yi glanced at him coldly, "In the future, you and I will both be Captain Ruoao's people, and these will naturally know." ”

"Yes, Liu also understands. ”

Liu Yi's eyebrows were slightly heavy and he beckoned to the soldiers and horses of the five cities, just when everyone was fighting to keep up with the Tiger Forbidden Army led by Lu Yi and sending out fifty percent of the soldiers and horses to patrol, a huge fire suddenly rose in the east of the Chu Palace, and in an instant, it burned half of the sky of the entire Yingdu Wangcheng.

The generals pointed in the direction of the East Palace and shouted to Lu Yi, who was the commander, "My lord, the East Palace is on fire!"

But as if he hadn't heard it, Lu Yi took out a list and continued to issue Ruo Ao Yuejiao's order, "Deputy Lieutenant Liu, now Ruo Ao Ling Yin orders you to immediately send someone to hunt down the princess and all the rebels, and Ben will take over the post of Captain Hu Ben!"

"Yes!"

Liu Yi looked at the fire in the East Palace and quickly collected his mind, clenched the list of bamboo slips in his hand, and Xiao Huanglin and the others followed him out of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to carry out the military orders.

As a result, the newly appointed Ling Yin Cheng clan of the King of Chu was betrayed as a rebel party, and the whole house was besieged, Cheng Daxin and Chen Huang led the Cheng clan and their children out of the West Gate, and were chased and killed by the soldiers and horses of the five cities, and they were nowhere to be found, and Ling Yin Ziban was sent back to Ruo Ao's clan but was ordered not to be mourned, and his body was parked in the mansion.

If the Ao Mansion is in turmoil, the whole family is in chaos.

All the old and weak women and children looked at Ling Yinzi's red sandalwood coffin and knelt on the ground and cried, Mrs. Wang was not there, and there was no one to organize the funeral.

All the clansmen scolded Ruo Ao Ziliang because of the loss of Ling Yin's position, and Chu Zhongtang was noisy, and the golden plaque hung high outside the door, and they couldn't shake their voices.

Ruo Ao Ziyong stopped Ruo Ao, who was going to follow Ruo Ao Ziliang out of the mansion and said, "Clan elder, you must not go, if you go, you will be sent to death!"

"Dead?"

"If I make the Ao clan so chaotic and cause Yin to die, it will be no different from death?"

Ruo Ao Tan looked at the gold plaque on his head and said sadly, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing again and again to plead guilty, "The gold plaque is destroyed......! This is the instruction of the ancestor Ziwen to us, we did not listen to the words of the ancestor back then, and today our clan is in this great disaster!"

"It's cause and effect!"

……

Ruo Ao Zike watched Ruo Ao Ziliang rush out of the Tiger Ben Forbidden Army and Ruo Ao Liubu to the palace with Ruo Ao Yuejiao's father, his fox-like eyes were gloomy.

His entourage said worriedly, "Third Prince, even Ling Yin's daughter has been defeated, are we going to surrender to the eldest prince?"

If you don't surrender, you're afraid that they will be the next to die.

Even if Ao Zike is unwilling, he has to say that he is defeated, "Yue Jiao, ruthless, ambitious, I am not as good as you, kill three birds with one stone, and bring the son to order the ministers!

When Ao Ziliang rushed to the palace, the palace door was locked, he was not allowed to enter the door, and scolded Yue Jiao to come out to meet, but he closed the palace and went to Pan Chong's mansion instead.

……

Pan Fuzhong.

With the support of Anu, Pan Chong went out to look at Ruo Ao Ziliang, who was running to him in embarrassment, as if he had grown early in a day, and his face, which had never been well maintained, quickly aged and haggard, knelt on the ground and begged him to enter the palace as a substitute for Ling Yin to stop all this.

And Pan Chong just held Anu's hand and suddenly said tiredly, "Ziliang, you said you want me to stop it, but what can I do to stop it?"

"If the king is still there, he will definitely listen to the words of the master. Ruo Ao Ziliang said with a hopeful face.

Pan Chong suddenly said an old thing, "Ziliang, do you still remember that they were the most rock-solid alliance of kings and ministers of our Great Chu, and they let my Great Chu, who had been holding hatred and shame for nineteen years, once again threaten the north and rank among the overlords. ”

"But now they kill one ...... other."

Pan Chong didn't know what mood it was.

Back then, after he succeeded several times, he persuaded the king of Chu to curb the power of Ling Yin Zi without success, but a son-in-law made the king of Chu suspicious and murderous, and the king of Chu was still the king of Chu back then, and even Shi's father could decide without hesitation, let alone the son?

Ruo Ziliang's face collapsed when he heard this, and he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "The death of the second brother is all my fault." ”

Pan Chong shook his head and said affirmatively, "No, this is the power of royal power. ”

"For the position of the first clan, my Pan clan has never wanted to compete with your Ruo Ao clan.

I, Pan Chong, have retired from the court for forty years.

The old man is not pretentious.

Because I know that this position was given to you by the person above, and they gave it to you three hundred years ago, and one day they will take it back. ”

Pan Chong, who is the screen of the Chu State, if he wants to, he can influence the biggest figure in the Chu State with a casual word.

But he rarely walked out of this upper study all his life.

Just teaching and educating people.

"I heard that as soon as Mr. Li returned home, he closed his door...... So let's not imagine our ancient clans to be too powerful, the era of our clan sharing is over, as Elder Li said......

The Zhou family will not be the only first, and the Situ family will not be the second, if you have been honored for three hundred years, and the son will not bend for a lifetime, you will also fall under its power sword.

Even the son of the first person in the DPRK can't win.

Not to mention other clans?

I just want to tell you, Ziliang, you want me to speak for your Ruo Ao clan, but now the person sitting in that position is still not the king of Chu who can listen to me, or the prince who is supported by your son, it is better for you to persuade him!"

Ruo Ao Ziliang shook his head desperately and said, "It was the king who lived up to the support of my Ruo Ao clan, and it was he who was the first to tear up the Shuangao Covenant and bring this disaster!"

The old man listened quietly to his bitter complaint, but immediately raised his voice twice, "No, you are the one who caused this disaster. I ask you, the Double Ao Alliance, but how can a country have two Ao?"

"There are no two days, sooner or later, the country is unparalleled!"

"Today is the beginning!"

"But this is what King Wu promised me Ruo Ao...... If I am like the eleventh order of the Ao clan, Yin Zhizi, I have not changed, but now the king has killed the second brother...... also changed to Cheng Jia as the successor, doesn't this force me to rebel against Ruo Ao?" Ruo Ao Ziliang shook his head.

"Blind!"

Pan Chong, who rarely scolded, pointed at him and scolded him loudly, "Ziliang, you are a blind man with open eyes and a deaf person!"

"Yue Jiao's ambition is obvious, but you have repeatedly turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear. ”

"It's because you've been pretending you can't see, all of you are too close to that up there.

It's only one step away.

Therefore, this is the only Ling Yin chair, everyone wants to compete for it, and your son Shi is plotting against him and seeking to seize Ling Yin's position. ”

Pan Chong waved his sleeves, "Even if I, Pan Chong, will try to quell the turmoil, it is not for you Ruo Ao Clan, but for the entire Great Chu!"

"Let's go!"

"It's useless to beg me, go and beg your son, let me go Da Chu!"

In the air, a cold wind blew through the back of Ruo Ao Ziliang's neck, along his exposed neck until it was cold to his backbone, he unconsciously cried bitterly, and sat on the ground with his buttocks, without the noble image of Ruo Ao Sima.

A four-tailed official uniform was crumpled on top of him, and he kept crying, "I don't want to either...... I don't want to...... Jiao'er is my son, he has always been very obedient since he was a child, Zi is my second brother, he has always been very protective of our family, I always want them to live in peace......"

"Contribute to the longevity of my Ruo Ao clan and work together to make a contribution......"

"And has your wish come true?"

Pan Chong looked at the innocent person in front of him weakly, and then asked, "Have you ever thought about Ziyan's death, what will happen when Ziyan returns from a great victory?"

"I know, I know, that he doesn't listen to me now, and he doesn't see my people...... That's why I asked you to come to Pan Lao, now only you can preside over the overall situation, and maybe Ziyan can still listen to your advice. ”

Ruo Ao Ziliang knelt in front of him.

At this time, he had lost his backbone, he didn't expect that his son had such a great hatred for his son, and he could say that the king had murderous intentions, and even planted a dirty and framed the princess to rebel, supported the son of the son, and chased and killed the people of the Cheng family, he didn't dare to imagine Ziyan's angry and hateful eyes when he came back, "We are all siblings, how can we kill each other?." ”

"Cannibalism, is the history of my Chu State still less for so many years?"

"The younger brother kills the nephew, the son kills the father......"

"For that supreme position, the names of the dead are engraved on the monument of the Taimiao of my Chu State. ”

Pan Chong pointed to the direction of the Taimiao, pointed to the national monument erected in the Taimiao, and pointed to the former victors written on it, and finally became a loser.

The path to power.

How many of them start and finish well?

One after another asked, "And since the establishment of the position of Ling Yin, how many of you have changed in the Ao clan? Eleven! Fortunately, you are not one of them, otherwise your name will be written today." ”

If Ao Ziliang heard this, his face was as pale as paper.

He also knew he wasn't fit for that position.

He didn't have a second brother to judge the situation, so it was clear that the king of Chu looked for him first, but he missed Ling Yin's position because of his son-in-law; he didn't have the second brother to be decisive and ruthless, so he always turned a blind eye to the contradictions between Yue Jiao and the Lu family since he was a child......

He knew that Yuejiao was trapping 50,000 homeless people, and even shielded him, reprimanded the princess, and finally fell into the death of the princess.

It's all wrong.

It's all his fault.

……

The old man's tone suddenly became cold, "If the Chu State collapses, then if you Ao Clan will also follow it, not only will your reputation be lost for three hundred years, but the ghosts of your Ao ancestors will not be honored." So now only you can stop this catastrophe and stop Yue Jiao's wolf ambitions. ”

"If you can't stop it, then this disaster can't be avoided. ”

"What Yue Jiao is doing now is not only ruining your Ruo Ao's three hundred years of immortal wisdom, but also destroying the three hundred years of my Great Chu's immortal foundation. ”

Ruo Ziliang worked hard to digest what Pan Chong said, and got up with the support of Anu on the side, "Okay, even if I fight for this life, I will kill this rebel and let him stop......"

Then Ruo Ziliang walked out and walked out of Pan's Mansion with a swaying figure.

"Taishi, just let Master Sima go like this, is it okay?

Anu watched worriedly as Ruo Ao Ziliang staggered out of the gate, the scorching sun above his head shining brightly, as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind at any moment.

"What do you think?"

The old man looked back at him and asked.

"I'm afraid it's not easy, power struggle, before the victory is decided, who will admit defeat in advance?" Anu replied with a frown.

Suddenly, outside the house, there was a shout, and a slave ran in in a panic and replied, "Master, it's not good...... Master Sima wept and fainted, and we couldn't wake up no matter how much we pinched others......"

Pan Chong clapped his hands and smiled, "Ziliang, it's okay now, you don't have to see anything." ”

"Someone will send Master Sima back, and the whole house will be under martial law!"

"My lord, why is that?"

"Yuejiao wolf's ambition, today there is no justification to get the position of Ling Yin, as the acting Ling Yin, he will not give up, and order all the clan courtiers to lead their own tribes to seal themselves at home, and the whole city is on alert......"

One after another orders fell with Pan Chong's voice, and this imperial master of a country hidden in the two dynasties of Great Chu issued orders one after another in an unsteady manner, and one after another war horses rushed out of his mansion, towards the mansions, outside the city, and the Phoenix Mountain military camp.

The chaos came as quickly as Pan Chong expected.

The mansions of the major court officials were surrounded by the Tiger Forbidden Army and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division one by one, especially the Pan Mansion was heavily guarded, but it was empty......

The ministers in the court asked Yue Jiao to take out the letter of re-establishment, but Yue Jiao casually threw out a jade silk that was not covered with the imperial seal but stained with the blood of the King of Chu, claiming that this was the will of the King of Chu.

The ministers were afraid, no one dared to argue, and even some Chu ministers saw that the Chu State was about to be in chaos, the King of Chu killed several important ministers in a row, Yue Jiao conspired against the domestic turmoil, and fled from Yingdu with his family overnight, and for a time a large number of nobles fled from the Chu State, which made the later generations of Chu ministers and Jin used to talk about it.

For a time, the Chu State, which had gotten rid of the three-year flood disaster and the military disaster to revive the country's fortunes, was in chaos.

Because of the disappearance of the princess, Ling Yin was killed, and the whole Ying was silent.

It's just that under such a dead silence, it is unknown how many people will be able to sleep peacefully tonight.

In the city, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division promulgated a new ban along the street under the leadership of Liu Yi, all the people were confined to their homes, and Lao Wanshen was in the Wanji wonton to face everyone, "In the morning, it was said that Ling Yin colluded with the prince's position, and at noon it was said that the princess failed to assassinate the king of Chu, and fell into Longtan, and his life and death are still uncertain, and the king's life is in danger, and it is said that it was all done by the princess, but Yue Jiao just summoned the ministers to support the new prince to take the throne, and sent people to surround the Cheng family, and proclaimed himself Ling Yin." ”

"Who the hell is the real ambition?!"

"Rebel?!"

"Whoever has eyes, everyone can see!"

The people who regained the people's hearts after the exile case looked at the soldiers and horses of the five cities and the tiger ben forbidden army who were beating horses and whipping past outside the door, and they all showed angry eyes.

Liu Yi rode his horse by, his eyes crossed those angry gazes, and he frowned slightly, but he still ordered someone to go in and issue a ban.

As soon as the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division walked in, all the people lowered their heads, and said nothing angry, Xiao Si stepped forward to greet him, and he didn't have a good face, and he didn't have a good face in the past, but today he just stood in front of them idly and asked, "I don't know what other decrees the military master has to be issued?"

The people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division looked at them with such expressions and drew their swords, "Don't you want to live?"

I don't know who inside and outside the Wanji wonton shop pressed his head and muttered in a low voice, "There is no way to live in this Chu country, are we still alive......"

"Who?"

"Who's talking, stand up for Ben!" the Commander shouted with a sword slashing through the bench.

Seeing that the conflict was about to arise, Lao Wan rushed out with a cane, "The military master is angry...... We don't have anyone to talk to!"

"Humph!"

The soldier snorted heavily, pushed him to the ground with a wave of his hand, and walked to the door and said to all the people inside and outside the main city street, "This is the order of Lord Yin, this is the order of Lord Yin, and all the people will take the order!"

All the people knelt down in anger to receive the commandment.

Subsequently, as if everything was agreed, Zongguo, Chaoguo, Qishu Ancient Kingdom, and Ruo Ao's vassal countries all rebelled one after another, and some Nanban tribes refused to accept the Chu State for a long time and rose up one after another.

If it is the Qin State, Wu Yue Land will definitely be ready to move when he learns the news of the current situation of the Chu State where the Chu and Jin wars have not stopped.

For a time, the Chu people seemed to see the Chu State embattled and singing.
