After passing through the three gates of the palace, Shen Man and the other three came to a place, and the ground was open in front of them and paved with marble. Behind this open space is a threefold magnificent temple. Directly opposite is the main hall, and the side halls are lined up according to the side of the main hall.

It is said that every stone and brick here was mined and transported from the bottom of the mountain to this place, for which 100,000 people spent a lot of energy and caused a period of public resentment. If it weren't for Taige's intervention, the taxes in this place would be exempted for three years, otherwise I am afraid that there will be a force surging here, threatening the national fortunes of the Dafeng Dynasty.

Shen Man looked around, and didn't dare to make too much movement, only to see flags fluttering everywhere, soldiers wearing bright armor that wiped the ground, carrying big knives at their waists, and the generals who rode back and forth like torches looked at them, which made people afraid.

Looking up at the surrounding high houses and towers, there are several straight shadows, with arrows on their backs, and the bow in their hands can pierce the clouds at any time.

Eight thousand under the mountain, two thousand on the mountain? Rebel?

Shen Man couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, scared. If he had listened to Ning Tao's advice and recklessly rebelled, he hadn't done it at the moment, but he was afraid that he would have become a turtle in an urn and be shot into a hedgehog and killed, and he would have laughed for eternity.

Ning Tao rubbed her nose, wondering what she was thinking. coughed lightly, "What are you afraid of, as long as the 100,000 elite soldiers who stayed in Kyoto do not come, and then block the connection between the mountain and the mountain, it will be easy to solve these two thousand Praetorian Guards." ”

Shen Man snorted from his nose, "Don't be ashamed." ”

Ning Tao's eyes lit up, "Isn't it ashamed, just give it a try, how about the young master, do you want to try?" ”

Shen Man shuddered for a moment and asked, "You shouldn't have deployed anything with Doctor Yun, right?" ”

Ning Tao pretended to look up at the weather, intending to play tricks to the end.

Shen Man turned his head and glared at Yun Tiangang angrily, she understood that this group of people bullied the soft and feared the hard, the more polite they were, the more polite they were, and now they have done some tricks without her, is she really a soft persimmon?

Yun Tiangang has not only the righteousness of master and servant to Shen Man, but also his love for his niece. Seeing Shen Man glaring at him angrily, he said helplessly, "Young Master, subordinates and Ning Gongzi just wanted to protect the safety of the Young Master, so they called the disciples who were nearby without authorization......

Shen Man raised his forehead, "How many people?" "It's just a temporary disciple, there should be a lot of people, at least less than fifty, and she can still get out of the way.

Yun Tiangang said lightly, "Not much, five hundred." ”

"Huh?!" Shen Man thought he had heard it wrong, plucked out his ears, and asked again, "How much?" ”

Yun Tiangang leaned into Shen Man's ear and said softly, "Tell the young master, there are now five hundred disciples gathered. Because of the large number of people, only ten trustworthy people were allowed to come up the mountain, and the rest were gathered at the bottom of the mountain. ”

"Onlookers what?" Shen Man had a faint bad premonition in her heart, she only felt that this group of people was not here to protect herself at all, but to capture herself alive. When the time comes, if you go down the mountain, won't you be surrounded by people, like onlookers playing monkeys on the street?

Shen Man had a headache.

Ning Tao watched coldly from the side, "How is it, young master, have you experienced the taste of power?" ”

Shen Man glared at him and smiled slightly wryly, "Am I unable to escape?" ”

Ning Tao shook his sleeves and said nonchalantly, "Even if you escape, I still have the ability to catch you back, and you can do it yourself." ”

Shen Man was aggrieved.

Ning Tao raised his eyebrows, "I really don't understand why you insist on not accepting the reality of being the young master of the Five Elements Sect." In my opinion, instead of hiding everywhere and worrying about being discovered all day long, it is better to simply enter the Five Elements Gate and be this young master in a dignified manner. When the time comes, they will all listen to you, if you don't want to take care of it yourself, you can hand it over to Yun Tiangang or someone else, and then it doesn't hurt to be a mascot and calm down. ”

Shen Man's lips moved, but he didn't reply.

Ning Tao had a cold face, "You're because of her, right?" ”

Shen Man was full of spirits, looking at him with surprised eyes, a frightened little white rabbit.

Ning Tao looked indifferent, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the gate guards you differently." You're in charge of the gate, and it's very different. But don't worry, the gate supervisor has a good relationship with my sister, and he has no grudge against me, and I won't expose your affairs. ”

Shen Man swallowed, neither nodding nor thanking.

They walked to the northeast of the place of worship to the heavens, and in front of them were two rows of halberd-wielding soldiers, stopping the ordinary people who were watching the ceremony at the outermost point. In the distance, there are several tents, and inside the tents, there are refreshments, melons and fruits. Presumably, it was a place where the royal family and ministers attended.

Ning Tao stood beside Shen Man with a smile, pointed to the tent left for the gate supervisor, and instigated, "We won't rebel anymore, how about robbing relatives for you?" ”

Shen Man shook for a moment, and secretly said that this might as well be a rebellion!

Yun Tiangang saw that Shen Man's little face was white and blue for a while, and stepped forward to turn over her hand to check the pulse. After pondering for a while, he said, "Young Master, there is probably nothing wrong with your physique, it's just that your heart is beating suddenly and you are angry, is there something on your mind?" ”

Shen Man withdrew his hand angrily, glared at the old and young, determined to be hard to the end, so he deliberately didn't have a good temperament, "I'm annoying, you guys stay away from me." ”

Ning Tao took a step back, cautiously looked up at Shen Man, and saw that Shen Man was still waiting for him, so he took another step back. Shen Man finally stopped glaring, and calmed down and motioned to Yun Tiangang to do the same.

Yun Tiangang is usually shrewd and capable, and since he met Shen Man, he has been following Shen Man wholeheartedly, so at this moment, he is like a child, learning to act like Ning Tao.

Ning Tao suddenly wrinkled his nose, turned his head and frowned, "It stinks...... Where did ...... come from?"

But he was stunned when he saw the visitor, and then reluctantly went up, sniffed the smell of the person up and down, and then looked up to the sky and laughed without any scruples, "Hahaha! Isn't this Young Master Jiang who is fragrant anytime and anywhere, why does he suddenly seem to have fallen into a dung pit? I'm afraid I won't be able to go for a few days! Hahaha! ”

Shen Man saw that he was smiling unscrupulously, and the people around him were looking this way, she didn't want to attract the attention of others, so she motioned to Yun Tiangang to take Ning Tao away, and she took Jiang Qiudi to a private tent with her.

"Little Master Jiang, why are you so stinky? Did you fall into it with the dung truck? Shen Man couldn't help but ask.

Ning Tao held his stomach and continued to laugh, ignoring Jiang Qiudi's increasingly cold gaze, "Hahaha!" I think he must have fallen in...... Otherwise, it wouldn't be like this...... Ha ha! ”

Jiang Qiudi saw that it was useless to stare at him, so he had a plan, quickly walked to Ning Tao's side, groped for something from his pocket, and stuffed it into his mouth quickly and ruthlessly when Ning Tao opened his mouth to laugh.

So Ning Tao was silent and clutched his throat.

Yun Tiangang was silent, according to what he could see, what Ning Tao ate was not poisonous.

Shen Man was also silent, because she clearly saw that Jiang Qiudi was giving Ning Tao a ......

Thinking about the details of the thing, she suddenly became disgusted as well, crouching on the edge of the tent and retching.

Ning Tao silently walked up to her side and squatted with her.

Shen Man vomited for a while, and when he saw him so quiet, he felt weird, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Do you know what you ate just now?" ”

Ning Tao's eyes were dull and his movements were slow, "I know." ”

Shen Man couldn't believe it, "Then you can still be so ......"

Ning Tao suddenly spread out his hand and said, "I want you to give me a pill." ”

"What medicine?"

"I want to kill myself." Ning Tao said expressionlessly.

Shen Man was stunned for a moment, and laughed heartily, "You, a ruthless and ruthless person, would even want to commit suicide...... Hahaha! ”

Ning Taotuo tilted his head to look at her and smiled, "Don't you know? ”

"What?" Shen Man stopped laughing, feeling that Ning Tao had something to say.

Unexpectedly, Ning Tao said slowly, "Shi can be killed, but not humiliated." ”

Shen Man was speechless and stood up holding on to the tent, "Who told you to make fun of Young Master Jiang?!" Deserve! ”

Ning Tao shook his robe, "Today's matter, if anyone reveals half a word, I will die." ”

Shen Man's eyes were full of smiles, he walked towards Jiang Qiudi, put one hand on his shoulder, and asked, "Then where did you go, and what did you gain?" ”

Jiang Qiudi shook his shoulders and shook off the hand that Shen Man had put up frivolously, and said coldly, "There are weapons in that dung cart. It was transported to the back kitchen, and the stove in the back kitchen was empty, and it was all short daggers. ”

"What?!" The other three were taken aback at the same time.

Shen Man was the first to react, "Who wants to rebel?" ”

Ning Tao opened his mouth wide, and then smiled, "It seems that what the young master is thinking about all the time in his mind is rebellion." ”

Shen Man ignored him and continued to ask Jiang Qiudi, "How many people are there enough weapons to use?" ”

"Equip a thousand people enough."

Ning Tao pinched his fingers and counted, "The eldest prince, the seventh prince, Princess Decheng, and-Ning Xiang, do you want to make a bet?" ”

Shen Man burst out for no reason, "No, you missed one." ”

Ning Tao's gaze changed slightly, "Which one?" ”

Shen Man's eyes became restrained, "Gate Supervisor, Tang Jiuyue." ”

Ning Tao slowly stretched out another finger, "Combined, there are five people who can rebel." He glanced at Shen Man and analyzed, "Among them, the Tang Gate Supervisor is currently the most suspicious, and she has an imminent motive, that is, she doesn't want to marry the emperor, so she simply wants to change the dynasty......

"Unlikely," Shen Man retorted, "she has no military power, no name, and it is unlikely that she would take such a risk." ”

Yun Tiangang said, "The Seventh Prince took us up the mountain, saying that he came on the orders of the Tang Gate Supervisor, if Tang Jiuyue colluded with him, the inside and the outside should be together, maybe it will be possible." ”

Collusion......

The corners of Shen Man's mouth twitched, and Doctor Yun was really tactful.

Ning Tao said with a smile, "No matter who rebels, anyway, the family affairs of the gate supervisor are ruined, and we can enjoy it, which can be regarded as happy." ”

Yun Tiangang said strangely, "Sit back and enjoy it? What have we done? ”

Shen Man coughed softly, grabbed Ning Tao's arm, pulled it aside and said, "Be careful when you speak, Doctor Yun is old, don't scare him." ”

Ning Tao said with a smile, "The young master speaks, how can he not obey." ”

"K-K-"

A gong shook the mountains, the birds in the mountains flew in shock, and the trees made a loud noise.

All those present looked at the high platform in front of the main hall.

Soon, the ceremony of worshipping the heavens of the Dafeng Dynasty is about to begin.

But Shen Man knew that the sacrifice to the sky was just the beginning, and this day would pass for an extraordinarily long time. 166 Reading Network
