As soon as he finished speaking, an egg shattered on his face, and disgusting egg whites flowed down his cheeks. The child standing on the side of the street looked at him coldly and threw another vegetable leaf in his face.

The young master's lungs were about to explode, and he shouted: "Stinky boy! How dare you smash me! ”

The child didn't pay attention to him, but kept hitting him with vegetable leaves, and after a while, all the people came out and hit him with dirty things. You must know that even if the city lord is dead, as long as he is related to the city lord, it is enough to make people grit their teeth with hatred.

After a while, the glamorous young master turned into a dirty beggar. He was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, but he was grabbed tightly by the guards next to him, and he couldn't move, so he was forced to walk forward.

The man in dark clothes stood behind the crowd, and it was the prince. At this moment, he was shaking the fan in his hand slightly, looking extraordinary, and there was no sympathy in his eyes. just a sneer hooked up at the corner of his mouth, and said, "I didn't expect you to have today." ”

As soon as the young master twisted his head, he saw the person in dark clothes, and immediately shouted: "Third brother, save me!" ”

Before he finished speaking, the person who was called the third brother of the young master was the third son of the King of Light. was named a prince at an early age and was excluded from power. However, the grass that grows against the wind is always the toughest, and after so many years of dormancy, this prince is no longer what it used to be.

Although he is related to the young prince and the young master, he has no blood relationship. Hearing the prince's call for help, he just didn't hear it, and soon disappeared, making the young master think that it was just an illusion on his part.

The prince of such a wolf bèi made the surrounding onlookers laugh even more, and smashed it even harder.

was finally escorted to the palace, and the young master was no longer human. His hair was messy and he still smelled of it.

Long Ying looked at him with a smile and said, "I didn't expect the young master of Bright City to be so depressed today?" ”

Gritting his teeth, he raised his head and stared at her fiercely. Long Ying was amused by his appearance and said, "What are you doing with so much hatred for me?" If I want to say that I saved you, if it weren't for the fear of my people, they would have killed you. ”

The young master sneered and said, "If you become a king or lose, you can kill or kill you." ”

He raised his eyebrows, stood up with a smile, and said, "Oh? In this way, the pair of shackles that you and your father put on Jing Siyuan seem to be good, otherwise you should try it too? ”

The young master snorted coldly and said, "Don't be stupid! Even if I die, Jing Siyuan can't become the city lord! He's been a shackled prisoner all his life! ”

"Really?" A quiet voice came from outside the main hall.

Looking back, it turned out that Jing Siyuan, who had just recovered from a serious injury, came in. Although his face is still a little pale, his complexion has improved a lot.

The young master looked at Jing Siyuan in disbelief, already stunned.

Long Ying glanced at the city lord lightly, turned her head to Jing Siyuan and said, "You can do it, anyway, you will be the city lord soon." ”

Jing Siyuan glanced at the city lord and only said, "Aren't you and your father the most fond of torturing people with the things in prison?" I guess I like it very much, so let's enjoy it. ”

The young master's face turned pale in an instant, and he was about to plead, but he was gagged by the guards and pulled down.

Jing Siyuan then came indoors, and saw Long Ying and Xuanyuan Wudao playing chess, and Kong Tong and Langya watching.

Xuanyuan Wudao said with concern: "The big injury is just recovering, why don't you rest well?" ”

Jing Siyuan sighed and said, "Even if we control this palace now, will those ministers agree to me being the city lord?" ”

Long Ying smiled and said in a deep voice: "You can rest assured of this, once the son of heaven and a courtier, the people have long been dissatisfied with the King of Light, and his ministers are probably not a good thing, sooner or later they will have to be eliminated, it is better to get rid of them now." ”

Jing Siyuan's sad face only cleared slightly, and he calmed down and waited for the time to be ripe. It can be said that his qiē was given by relying on Long Ying and Xuanyuan Wudao. It can be regarded as the favor he pleaded for Long Ying and Xuanyuan Wudao in the first place.

It's just that things don't go as smoothly as he thought.

In a very ordinary mansion, the man in Xuanyi, who was made the third brother by the young master, that is, the current third prince, was lying in his Taishi chair at this time sipping fragrant tea, and asked his subordinates lazily: "You mean that they will prepare for the enthronement ceremony in three days?" ”

The guard next to him nodded and said, "Jing Siyuan's injuries have healed, so I am ready to ascend the throne in three days." ”

The prince didn't laugh angrily, and said, "Chopping the wind, you said that I, a person with authentic bloodline, was standing there, who would they support to be the king of Guangming City?" ”

Chopping Feng said respectfully: "Naturally, it's 'Your Highness' you." ”

The prince who was respectfully called His Royal Highness was obviously in a good mood. He immediately smiled and waved his hand and said, "Let those people from the Guangming Family come to my mansion tonight, as well as those ministers in the court." ”

Chopping the wind and clenching his fists, he said, "Yes." ”

His movements are extremely neat. At dusk, the ministers of the court, the princes and nobles of the King of Light came to his mansion.

Seeing the man in the dark robe, everyone was stunned. An older courtier said, "Are you really still alive, my lord?" ”

Only then did the prince turn around and say, "I am naturally still alive, and it doesn't matter how I survived. Are you willing to give up our very own City of Light to others? ”

Immediately, someone said: "Naturally, I don't want to!" ”

He smiled and nodded, very satisfied with the result he saw, and said with a smile: "Then everyone should calm down and listen to my command." ”

Long Ying leaned on Xuanyuan Wudao's shoulder, and the two looked at the stars in the sky.

She smiled and said, "You say, where did so many courtiers, as well as princes and ministers, go at night?" ”

Xuanyuan Wudao touched her head and said, "Lady, don't think too much. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, Jing Siyuan will definitely ascend the throne safe and sound, or let them be convinced to ascend the throne. ”

Three days later, the enthronement ceremony.

"Tick tock, tick tock......" solemn and long music echoed throughout the empty palace square.

The bright red carpet swooped out of the city, and the bright yellow flags fluttered in the sky. Jing Siyuan was wearing a golden dragon robe and stood in the center of the Temple of Heaven.

Holding the golden edict, he said: "Siyuan inherits the will of heaven and accepts the hearts of the people, and becomes the new city lord of this bright city!" From today onwards, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, exempt from servitude and miscellaneous taxes for three years, and all primary refined jade stones will also be exempted! ”

The ministers were jubilant and immediately shouted: "Long live the King of Light, long live, long live!" ”

Jing Siyuan is so generous and has his considerations, when King Guangming was in power, the enslavement was too heavy, and the people just didn't have enough to eat. And he indulged in pleasure every day, and stored all the treasures under the palace, not to say that he didn't have to collect taxes for three years, but he could do it for five years!

The ceremony soon came to an end, and it was always very smooth.

Long Ying said a little strangely: "Is it possible that these courtiers are really willing to surrender like this?" ”

At this moment, a white-haired courtier came out respectfully and said. He bowed down to Jing Siyuan and asked for his life.

"It has always been a rule to invite the new city lord to go to the Temple of Heaven and worship the previous city lords."

Jing Siyuan's delicate sword eyebrows were raised, a little puzzled.

Who knows, at this time, all the courtiers knelt down and said in unison: "It has always been a rule to invite the new city lord to go to the Temple of Heaven to worship the previous city lords. ”

Hearing this, Long Ying raised her eyebrows, is she still here?

Xuanyuan Wudao on the side smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go up together and see what tricks they want to play." ”

The group came to the outside of the Temple of Heaven, and the old courtier came up, twisted the lamp next to the door, and the door slowly opened.

Jing Siyuan asked, "Minister Wang, won't you go in with us?" ”

The king immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed. said: "The minister is afraid, this altar of heaven is a place to worship the former city lord, how can it be that a lowly body like a minister can enter?" ”

They knew it was a plan, but they still had to go in.

Kong Tong, who was following behind Long Ying, Xuanyuan Wudao and the others, couldn't look at it, snorted indignantly, and said, "Then you lowly bodies should stay outside." ”

After speaking, he followed Jing Siyuan into the Temple of Heaven, and Long Ying, Xuanyuan Wudao and others also followed behind.

Inside the Temple of Heaven are the remains of various generations of city lords, as well as tablets. As soon as you step in, it is like entering the imperial mausoleum, and huge stones weighing 10,000 catties fall from all directions, blocking all the exits tightly.

Seeing that they were all trapped in the Temple of Heaven, those courtiers and princes and nobles breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of their mouths hooked up a triumphant smile.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Long Ying and the others were trapped, they saw the third prince of the King of Light, that is, the prince of the current City of Light, striding up to the main hall from another entrance.

He calmly sat on the golden dragon chair, raised his hand and said to everyone: "All the ministers are flat!" ”

The courtiers respectfully shouted: "Long live the King of Light, long live, long live!" ”

After the white door of the Temple of Heaven closed, Langya's face changed. shouted indignantly: "This gang of old men obviously wants to kill us!" ”

Long Ying smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, wait for us to go out, they are really speechless!" At that time, Jing Siyuan's position as the city lord will be really solid. ”

So everyone began to check in the Temple of Heaven to see if there was any ambush inside.

In the end, they came to the unanimous conclusion: this Temple of Heaven is extremely safe, but it is like a cage that makes them unable to get out, and finally dies without a fight.

Looking at the magnificent Temple of Heaven built, Jing Siyuan sighed and said, "I'm sorry for bothering you again, we can't get out now." ”

found that it was very likely to be trapped in this altar of earth, and everyone's faces were not very good.
