Chapter 944: Sand and Gravel
The sky was white, the morning dawn had arrived, and Wang Ci's voice was sent by the east wind. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Cousin!" he changed his name, reminding everyone that at this moment, the emperor was holding a knife around and pointing at the emperor's closest relatives of the same clan and room. He was satirizing the emperor.
"What about the more than 1,000 forbidden troops? What about the 200 crossbowmen? What about the endless stream of elite soldiers from all walks of life? I don't even worry at all! Cousin, you don't have a solid heart, right? Why don't you guess what confidence I have at this moment?"
A traitor and rebel son dares to argue with the Son of Heaven in public to play dumb riddles, which is a great provocation and sarcasm. The emperor's face was a little pale. But Wang Ci is in the dark and he is in the light, if he can really guess the source of Wang Ci's confidence, why bother standing here and doing nothing!
"Zhu Jingchi, I will give you one last chance! Let go of the county monarch immediately and release all the hostages! As long as you know each other, I can reward you with a knighthood!"
"Then cousin, I'll give you a chance! Hurry up and let your crossbowmen retreat first! Otherwise, the county lord and these hostages will have to be shot into a sieve first!"
But Wang Ci laughed again, "But I have calculated for your cousin, if that's the case, it's still your cousin who suffers! No matter whether I am Zhu Guangchi or Wang Ci, my reputation has already resounded in the land of Gyeonggi, and everyone knows that I am a true gentleman who is chivalrous and soft-hearted, loyal and courageous!"
But what about you? Last night, you killed my father for no reason in front of everyone's eyes, and then killed the meritorious heroes of the Southern Army, and exterminated the dignitaries in Beijing, which is already infamous, and everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak! At this moment, for the sake of your own selfish desires, you have to kill your closest relatives, benevolent and righteous people, and you do not hesitate to use the county monarch and the common people as your back......
At that time, I am afraid that your reputation will not be able to be regained! If you lose the hearts of the people, don't you send another reason to raise troops to some vassal king, or to a foreign race?"
"Cousin, look at you, you're really confused! With so many people here, it's very difficult to seal the mouth with this number! However, it's easy to extinguish the mouth! Brothers on the other side, you have to hold the steel knife in your hand and protect the head on your neck! Hahaha!"
Wang Ci is Wang Ci, and he still has the ability to fan the flames at this moment.
At this moment, a large part of the forbidden army was later made up in the camp in the city, and many people have heard that the emperor has "killed" and "exterminated" the guests in the Long Live Mountain. At this time, listening to Wang Ci's provocation, many people who were skeptical of this rumor before also shook their hands, and most of them softened in an instant.
"Zhu Jingchi, don't toast and don't eat and drink! Do you really think I won't dare to kill you?"
The Emperor took a deep breath. As long as you can keep this country, sacrifice a few people, avoid a big war, and avoid the destruction of your lives, even if you are temporarily infamy, what can you do?
"Yunyang, I'm sorry! I owe you the Qin family, if I have the opportunity, I should make up for it! After you leave, I will bury you with the gift of the county lord!" The emperor expressed his attitude towards Shen Moyun, and the regret in his eyes was clear.
Shen Moyun lowered his eyes and smiled, indicating understanding.
"Crossbowmen ready!"
The emperor made up his mind!
"Wait a minute!" Wang Ci interrupted with a playful expression. He changed his name again. "Emperor, do you really think I'm stupid enough to rely on a little woman to pinch you? Why don't you look at your feet first? Since you want to sit down and ignore the faint monarch of the world, then I naturally can't die in vain, so how about I do the right thing for heaven? Why don't you ...... Shall we all perish together?"
Wang Ci's excessive arrogance once again made everyone's hearts tremble, and the emperor and the Imperial Forest Army bowed their heads almost at the same time, and then retreated again and again.
Only then did they realize that the dirt beneath their feet was an unusual black color.
The night was thick before, and the torches were golden-red, which was not enough to make them notice this strange appearance! Is it really a fraud? Wang Ci is not alarmist? What are these blacks?
Wang Ci's face showed his smile like a spring breeze as always.
"Don't be nervous, Your Majesty! Brother Chen's joke with you! In order to prevent mosquitoes, Brother Chen's brother just sprinkled some medicine at the gate of the courtyard, which is harmless! It's just that Brother Chen's memory is not very good, and he can't remember for a while, except for the firewood room, where else is this medicine arranged? Well, it seems that this is tired, and it's time to rest for a while!"
"Zhu Jingchi!" the emperor roared angrily. "What did you just say? What did you say was in the firewood room?"
"Nothing! just saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal, and so on. I heard that the owner of this courtyard loves alchemy, this ...... You haven't violated the laws of the Great Zhou, have you?"
As soon as Wang Ci's words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
All the soldiers behind the emperor were shocked and panicked.
Who doesn't know that when nitrate, sulfur, and charcoal are mixed together in a certain proportion, they are black powder! When it comes to fire, it ignites, and if the amount is large, it will cause an explosion!
Even Shen Moyun was taken aback. What is hidden behind the wall of the firewood house is not gold and silver, but gunpowder?
She is cold again, if this is the case, then this oolong is caused by her! So should she be responsible for today's situation?
A heavy general beside the emperor grabbed a handful of mud at his feet, rubbed his fingers, sniffed the tip of his nose, and his expression was blank: "Your Majesty, it is indeed ...... Black powder!"
The emperor is outrageous!
Because Wang Ci is cunning and more refined than a fox, he can't even grasp the handle in his words at this time!
Because Wang Ci was ruthless, he actually threatened to die together, so he had to compromise!
What's more, because Wang Ci played tricks on him again and again, he couldn't tell which of Wang Ci's words was true!
These short five hours are the most useless period of the emperor's life. Because of Wang Ci, all his advantages disappeared, and he was almost led by his nose.
At this moment, this guy yawned playfully, but he was helpless.
"The courtiers are tired! Then, go back to the firewood room and take a nap! The emperor should also go back to the palace to rest! Although this is a game, it is also a bit dangerous! You are the master of the Ninety-Five, don't hurt the dragon's body! When the courtiers enter the firewood room, you must remember to keep these brothers away from the fire. In case something happens, the younger brother will not be responsible! The younger brother's words are heart-digging, and the Holy One can't be a child's play!"
Wang Ci grinned and smiled evilly again, causing people to shudder for no reason.
Everyone's eyes widened, but they saw Wang Ci take out a fire fold from his arms, blowing sparks everywhere, causing several timid people, including Shen Moqing, to exclaim in surprise.
"Brother Chen heard that the master here has gathered all the sand and gravel accumulated over the past ten years in the warehouse. The younger brother thought that if the younger brother's hand shook at this moment, it would be good for the two of us brothers to end up together! At least your scandal last night will be gone with the wind, not only to save our royal face, but also to bury more than 1,000 officers and soldiers with the forbidden army, what a beautiful scenery! By the way, it also killed the mouth by the way! How about it? This is a good idea, right?"
