Chapter 1136: Mountain Rain is Coming
The greatest damage does not come from the enemy, but often from close relatives or the people you trust the most. The feeling of being stabbed by the most trusted person is absolutely uncomfortable, and the ghost emperor is tasting this bitter and indescribable taste at this moment.
Garrot was the person he trusted the most, and it was he who single-handedly promoted Garrot to the position of High Priest. Nor did he disappoint, and once upon a time, he also paid for his dynasty with blood and sweat. Over the years, the Ghost Emperor has resisted strong enemies and rebelled internally, and Garo has played an important role in this, and is his most powerful assistant.
When he learned that his most trusted and powerful assistant had done everything he had done in the past to get close to currying favor with him, the Ghost Emperor's heart was not very desolate. The high place is unbearable, and the Ghost Emperor is really lonely and cold. He didn't understand why so many people wanted to rebel, in the more than 300 years he had been on the throne, there was no longer a day when he was no longer thinking about what to do for the country, and he was pretending to be all the people in the world, why were there so many foreign enemies and internal strife trying to overthrow his rule?
"Jiang Xiaobai, you are a smart person, can you answer my doubts. The Ghost Emperor looked at Jiang Xiaobai.
Jiang Xiaobai said: "I don't know what your doubts are?"
"I have done so much for this country, why do people still want to overthrow my rule?Can you give me an answer?" the Ghost Emperor's voice was old and weak.
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Old Emperor, you are also a smart person, the answer you want is actually very simple, just because the dragon chair under your ass is too tempting." The temptation of supreme power, but who wants to take it to those who have ambitions?"
"This chair is not easy to sit on. ”
The Ghost Emperor sighed, "I've been sitting on this chair for more than three hundred years, and I haven't been truly happy since I sat on this chair. Everyone in the world thinks that I have the supreme power and can do whatever I want, but none of them know that in fact, the greatest power is the greatest constraint. I always demand myself with the standard of a bright gentleman, I dare not exceed half a step, and live carefully. How many people in the world can make the emperor like me?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "The current situation of your dynasty is not your fault. Your family has ruled the country for too long, leaving too many bad things in the long run. What good is it for a dead tree to be watered with as much water as you do?"
"You said that my country is no longer saved?" The Ghost Emperor's face suddenly became very embarrassed, and he glared at Jiang Xiaobai angrily.
"You're the first person in all these years to dare to say such a thing in front of me!"
Jiang Xiaobai smiled: "They are afraid of you, because you are their emperor, I am not afraid of you, because I don't regard you as an emperor, I am not your people." ”
"I wish I had such a friend who is not afraid of me. The Ghost Emperor smiled and stood up, "Now that my prince has been saved, those rebellious ministers and thieves should stop for a while." ”
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Old Emperor, can't you see the danger in this? You are a generation of heroes, but what about your son? According to the one-sided information I have learned, your son is less than one-ten-thousandth of yours. Even if he succeeds to your throne in the future, will he be able to defend this country?"
The Ghost Emperor smiled: "After I die, even if he floods, it has nothing to do with me. ”
Jiang Xiaobai sighed, "If you think like this, I have nothing to say." Now I'm just going to tell you one thing, can I leave?"
"Don't worry, as soon as you and I meet each other, I have many ideas that I want to exchange with you, you might as well live in this palace for a while. "Ghost Emperor Road.
Jiang Xiaobai said: "What do you mean by this? Do you still want to imprison me?"
The Ghost Emperor said, "Your method is effective for my crown prince, I hope you can leave after healing my crown prince." If you don't want to leave, I can give you endless glory and wealth, and even let you replace Garrot as the new High Priest. ”
Jiang Xiaobai said: "So you are planning to do something to Jia Luo?"
The Ghost Emperor said: "I can't help it, fortunately you saved the prince's life, otherwise Jia Luo and the forces behind him might have taken action at this moment." ”
Jiang Xiaobai said: "I just temporarily held your son's life, but I'm not sure I can save your son." Old Emperor, even if your son really survives this hurdle, his health will be very poor and he will not be able to handle the heavy state affairs at all. At that time, it will either be the dictatorship of the relatives, or the powerful ministers will control the government. ”
"You don't need to say more, for now I only ask you to save my prince's life, and I will do the rest freely. ”
There are some questions, the Ghost Emperor doesn't know, he just doesn't want to think about those questions. There were already a lot of headaches for him right now, and he didn't want to make any more troubles.
"Father-in-law Ma, you arranged for Jiang Xiaobai to live in the Imperial Palace. Whatever he asks, he will do it. ”
The Ghost Emperor said: "In addition, inform the commanders of the three armies of the Dragon Army, the Tiger Army, and the Elephant Army, and let them lead their troops to surround the Zhongyuan Palace!
Ma Gonggong immediately took action, and he first went to deliver the order to the commanders of the three armies. Jiang Xiaobai stayed in the imperial palace, and he asked the Ghost Emperor to send him a imperial doctor. He was not familiar with the drugs in the ghost cave space after all, and he needed someone who was familiar with pharmacology to help. The poison of the snake letter grass in the prince's body is not easy to solve, and it takes a certain amount of time.
The Ghost Emperor returned to the dormitory, took the Imperial Dragon Sword, and then prepared to go to the Zhongyuan Palace. Before leaving the dormitory, Ma Gonggong ran back out of breath.
"Your Majesty, it's not good, the High Priestess Garrot has already run away. ”
"What!"
The Ghost Emperor was furious, "When did he run away?"
Ma Gong said fairly: "According to the guards of the Zhongyuan Palace, Jia Luo had already run away before the three armies arrived. Your Majesty, do you need to send troops to the Heavenly Star Palace?"
"Since he ran away, how could he go back to the Heavenly Star Palace. Callo wasn't that stupid. The Ghost Emperor sighed that he was careless, if he had put Jia Luo in prison in the Tai Womb before, these things would not have happened.
"Decree that the High Priest of Callo should be removed from his position. On the contrary, there are those who can provide clues to Callo's whereabouts, and they will be rewarded!"
"Yes, the minion will do it. ”
The news of the dismissal of the high priest Garo soon spread throughout the imperial city, and the official reason given was that Garrot had fornicated with the empire. This is a great sin, and even those who harbor the Gallo will be implicated by the Nine Tribes.
Of course, those who really dare to harbor Gallo will definitely not be afraid. At this moment, Callo was still in the imperial city. He was drinking with the king of peace.
"King Pingxi, Callo is incompetent, and his achievements have fallen short!"
