Chapter Ninety-Nine: King Ping!

In Dong Xiong's room, Li Yiqi walked in quickly, and when he saw Dong Xiong wrapped in gauze on the bed, he sighed faintly in his heart.

"General Dong, General Dong. ”

Li Yiqi walked to the edge of the bed and shouted softly, hearing the voice, Dong Xiong opened his eyes, his lips squirmed but he couldn't speak, he could only wink at Li Yiqi hard.

"The general rests in peace, His Highness is safe. ”

Li Yiqi understood, nodded, and said softly.

After pacifying Dong Xiong, Li Yiqi turned to the subordinates on the side and said, "You go and get the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor, and feed it to the general after the medicine is decocted." ”

"Yes. ”

After the subordinates retreated, another guard from the East Palace walked in, bowed to Li Yiqi, and said cautiously: "My lord, the forbidden army is coming, and I want to see my lord by name." ”

"Forbidden Army...... Got it. ”

Li Yiqi's eyes flickered, bowed slightly, and left the room with a step.

......

"Li Gongzi!"

In the Wude Palace, a general wearing golden chain mail saw Li Yiqi and hugged his fists and said: "Li Ji, the captain of the left capital of the Forbidden Army, is here on the order of the general. ”

"But for the sake of the Red Blood Demon Python?" Li Yiqi asked.

"Exactly. The general in the golden chain mail nodded with a serious expression

When the red-blooded demon python escaped, the forbidden army originally intended to suppress it. However, I didn't expect that in the hunting garden in the eastern suburbs, the red-blooded demon python actually escaped the encirclement of the forbidden army, and finally escaped to the vicinity of the imperial tomb in Qianling Mountain.

"General, please take a seat. ”

Li Yiqi looked calm, took off his robe, and sat on the pear blossom wooden Taishi chair.

He was clear in his heart, there was no doubt that the matter of the red-blooded demon python had been reported to the imperial court, and there must have been a lot of uproar in the capital, if the demon python destroyed the royal mausoleum, then the forbidden army in charge of this matter would be punished!

As the main person in charge of this matter, the forbidden army will inevitably come to him to ask him carefully.

If it weren't for the status of the East Palace and the energy of the Li family, the forbidden army would have been impatient to come to the door. Being able to come to ask questions at this time was already a bit beyond Li Yiqi's expectations.

Seeing this, the general of the forbidden army in golden chain mail looked a little embarrassed, he glanced at Li Yiqi, hesitated for a while, but still bowed down and hugged his fists and said: "Childe, that's the case, several of our commanders hope to invite Gongzi to move to Dali Temple." ”

"Dali Temple, what do you mean?" Li Yiqi raised his eyebrows slightly and asked suspiciously.

"The imperial court ordered the forbidden army to be fully responsible for the demon python, and at the same time the case was filed by the Dali Temple, and now several of our commanders are in the Dali Temple, and several commanders hope that the prince can go to the Dali Temple in person to explain the situation to them, after all, the stakes are very high. ”

As he spoke, the general of the forbidden army wearing golden chain mail continued to say in a deep voice: "Several commanders have been waiting for a long time, and when they heard that Gongzi woke up, they hurriedly ordered their subordinates to come and invite Gongzi. ”

"Heh, go to Dali Temple, is this to blame me?" Li Yiqi's eyes were cold, and he seemed to smile and said: "If I don't go, does the general want to kidnap me?"

"This ......"

The general of the forbidden army wearing golden chain mail had an embarrassed expression, the imperial court let the forbidden army be responsible for catching the demon python, but there was no order for the East Palace, there was no imperial order, and they had no right to order anyone in the East Palace, let alone the descendants of the Li family.

"Well, I'll go with you. ”

Li Yiqi glanced at him indifferently, he knew that some people in charge of the demon python were going to start shirking their responsibilities.

......

Dali Temple, located in the southwest of Shangjing City, is heavily guarded, as the place where the criminal case of the world is compounded, the building of Dali Temple, the eaves are pecked high, majestic and magnificent, and the style is extremely strict.

"Dali Temple has arrived. ”

The carriage stopped, the general of the forbidden army who led the way jumped out of the carriage, and Li Yiqi also slowly got down from the carriage, looking at the tall building in front of him, his expression was calm, not panicked.

However, when his gaze swept over the vermilion gate of Dali Temple, his face changed slightly.

There, a magnificent carriage pulled by eight dragon-like horses was parked.

The carriage is based on bronze, and the body is carved with exquisite cloud embroidery patterns such as mountains, rivers, sun, and moon, and at the same time, there is a big 'ping' character printed on the carriage flag!

"King Ping?!"

Li Yiqi's heart jumped violently, and he was taken aback: "How could he be here......"

Nine Drivers of the Son of Heaven! Eight Drivers of the Princes!

The Great Xia Dynasty has strict etiquette, and the nine drivers symbolize the position of the Xia Emperor, only when the Xia Emperor travels, can be pulled by nine strong horses, galloping, and the rest of the people, no matter who it is, the horses pulled must not exceed nine. At the same time, the carriage with eight horses can be said to be second only to the Xia Emperor's royal car, and its status is self-evident.

In the capital city, the only people who can have such a carriage drawn by eight horses like dragons and horses are the princes of the royal family, except for the crown prince who is the prince!

The competition between the children of the royal family has always been cruel, and the royal disciples who survived the last succession are basically controlled by the new emperor, and now there are a total of seven princes in the Great Xia Dynasty, and King Ping is one of them.

That Prince Ping has always been known for his penchant for torture and his fierce wrists!

Moreover, King Ping's attitude towards the Li family ......

"Is the person who came from the East Palace?" In front of Dali Temple, several officials in Tsing Yi looked at Li Yiqi and bowed down and asked.

"It's me. Li Yiqi nodded slightly.

"A few adults are already waiting inside, please come here. ”

In the main hall of Dali Temple, the entire hall has been vacated for the case of the Red Blood Demon Python.

"The East Palace attendant Li family's son has arrived!"

At this moment, a loud voice came from outside the lobby. Then, with a slight footstep, Li Yiqi stepped into the lobby.

After sweeping his gaze, Li Yiqi saw that on the Taishi chair in the center of the lobby, an old man was dressed in a first-class court dress, wearing a high crown that reached the sky, with a solemn expression and a majestic temperament. Dozens of officials dressed in green clothes held long staffs and waited on both sides.

Below, the two sides sat distinctly. On one side are seven or eight officials dressed in court clothes with solemn expressions, which should be officials of Dali Temple. On the other side, there were seven or eight strong men in armor, with extremely strong breath and sharp eyes, who should be the high-ranking generals of the forbidden army.

"Dali Siqing is in charge of this case, it seems that this matter is really big!" Li Yiqi's gaze swept back and forth, and finally landed on the old man sitting in front of the main hall.

Having said that, he had a relationship with this Xuan-sama, although it was only a letter, and I don't know if this Xuan-sama still remembers him......

In the hall, the civil and military gathered together, and more than a dozen eyes fell on Li Yiqi's body.

"Li Yiqi, who was born in the late Li family, has seen all the adults. ”

Li Yiqi took a step forward and bowed his hand slightly to several Dali Temple officials in the hall and several high-level generals of the forbidden army present.

"Li Gongzi, this inquiry is a routine matter, and I hope Gongzi will cooperate. Below the lobby, an official with a clear face and a high crown and a broad belt saw Li Yiqi come in, stood up and arched his hand.

"Adults don't need to be polite, late students understand. Li Yiqi nodded slightly, he was 'invited' this time, and he was always here to help, so the attitude of the officials of Dali Temple was quite polite.

After saying that, he took another step forward, straightened his clothes, bowed to the old man wearing a high crown at the top of the hall, and said respectfully: "I have seen Lord Qingxuan of Dali Temple in my later life." ”

Above the lobby, Xuanye Nan of Dali Temple was sitting motionless, just bowing his head slightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Sit down and talk." ”

"Thank you, sir. Li Yiqi arched his hand and was about to sit down.

However, at this moment, a sudden change protruded, and behind the lobby, behind the screen, there was a majestic and unfathomable indifferent voice.

"Wait!"

Immediately afterwards, a pair of gold-plated black moire boots suddenly stepped into the hall, and when the footsteps fell, the entire hall of Dali Temple seemed to be shaking, and a huge coercion, like a tide, swept towards Li Yiqi.

"What qualifications do you have to sit in this hall with mere companions, and you have no merit in your body? A middle-aged man about forty years old with a beard was walking vigorously, and Long Xiang entered the lobby with a tiger's eye, and said coldly, without even looking at Li Yiqi.

The man wore a purple and gold crown and a black gown, and a white jade belt around his waist, which was inlaid with rare gemstones...... The strange thing is that although this man is gorgeously dressed, he does not have the royal extravagance, but gives people a strong and domineering galloping and invincible atmosphere.

"King Ping! it's really him!" Although he had already prepared in his heart, when he saw the person in front of him, Li Yiqi's face was still solemn.

Ping Wang Xia Min - one of the Li family's biggest opponents in the court!

"Because the imperial tomb is involved, did the royal family send a weighty prince to come to observe?" Li Yiqi's heart moved slightly, as if he had an understanding.

"His Royal Highness King Ping. ”

"His Royal Highness King Ping. ”

“......”

Everyone in the hall, whether it was the minister of Dali Temple or the general of the forbidden army, saw King Ping, their faces showed a solemn look, and they all stood up and bowed.

"Hmm!"

King Ping swept everyone's eyes, lifted his cloak, and sat down on a Taishi chair in the lobby.

"Li Yiqi, in front of this king, don't you kneel down to see you?"

The voice that was not angry but powerful came from his ears, and Li Yiqi's face changed slightly.

He didn't expect that as a royal prince, King Ping would surrender his identity and make trouble for his junior.

With a sneer in his heart, Li Yiqi arched his hand at King Ping, and said leisurely: "I've seen His Royal Highness King Ping, don't you know that in this Dali Temple, there are only two kinds of people, the person who presides over the case and the prisoner, I don't know which kind His Royal Highness King Ping is?"

"Presumptuous!"

King Ping's face sank, his eyes looked at Li Yiqi coldly, and he said indifferently: "This king came to listen to the hearing by holy order. ”

Hearing this, Li Yiqi's face did not change, he had already guessed that King Ping was here to observe, and if he was the presiding judge, then he would not need to be accompanied by Dali Siqing.

"It turned out that I came to listen, so the prince is not the chief judge! The late born was invited to come to the Dali Temple, and naturally he is not a prisoner! Although the prince is the emperor and noble, but in this Dali Temple, the prince is not the chief judge, and the late son is not a prisoner, and the prince wants to kneel down in the late life, I don't know what the reason is?!"

"You?!" King Ping's face changed slightly, his eyes showed anger, and he glared at Li Yiqi. He didn't expect the descendant of the Li family to be so sharp-tongued.

"Even if you are here to listen, then the prince is still the same as the late student, just do his duty. Li Yiqi said with a cold face, and after that, he looked at the official with a clear face and a high crown at the bottom of the lobby, and asked, "My lord, what you said before your late life is right?"

"Yes, according to the laws of Daxia, in the Dali Temple, only prisoners need to kneel, except for the presiding official, everyone regardless of rank. The official said without thinking. This person's name is Wang Zhong, who is the left Cheng in Dali Temple, and his status in Dali Temple is second only to Dali Temple Qing and Dali Temple Shaoqing, in this regard, he obviously has the right to speak.

"Clever tongue!"

When King Ping heard this, his eyes were slightly gloomy. He originally just wanted to embarrass the descendants of Li Jiu and lose the face of this rival, but he didn't expect the descendants of the Li family to turn so fast, normal people were already frightened and immediately knelt down and bowed, Li Yiqi didn't even back down in front of his prince, and his words were sharp and ridiculed him.

I was very unhappy in my heart, but fortunately, King Ping came here on official business this time, and if he didn't make a plan, he didn't want to cause more trouble.

"This king asked you, where is that demon python now, why did it sweep you away, but you came back alive?!" King Ping pointed at Li Yiqi and asked coldly.

The words fell, and everyone in the hall straightened up slightly.

They didn't come here to play, the most important thing at the moment was to catch or kill the demon python, and they must not let it continue to stay in the mountains of the eastern suburbs.

At that time, in full view of everyone, the demon python swept Li Yiqi away. Originally, everyone thought that Li Yiqi would definitely die, but they didn't expect him to come back unharmed in the end. The whereabouts of the demon python, presumably Li Yiqi must know.

Hearing this, Li Yiqi's face was expressionless, but his mind turned rapidly.

He slowly walked to a chair under the hall and sat down leisurely, took a sip of tea first, and then said unhurriedly: "The demon python is dead." ”
