The sun was shining, and the time had come for the Holy Lord to receive the Goryeo mission. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Xuangoryeo envoy Li Yongxian Jin see!" As soon as the words of the eunuch in the hall fell, Li Yongxian's figure appeared at the door of the Zichen Palace, pacing slowly and politely walking in. He was followed by the new deputy, holding a gold-inlaid sandalwood box.
Yin Tiancheng pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, and watched Li Yongxian's every move with his eyes like an arrow, and he didn't dare to blink his eyelids. He only waited for Li Yongxian to make the slightest move, and then arrested him on the spot, without giving him any chance to play conspiracy and tricks.
But at this tense moment, Yin Tiancheng heard Lu Wu, who was standing next to him, whisper to himself: "Something is wrong." ”
"What's unusual?" Yin Tiancheng hurriedly asked, but his eyes did not leave Li Yongxian.
"There are gods like me in the main hall."
"Who?" Yin Tiancheng asked again.
"I don't know, there was a sudden outbreak of immortal qi among the officials just now, and it was deliberately suppressed in an instant. With so many officials in the court, I can't see whose immortal qi is overflowing from. ”
"Is he friend or foe?"
"I don't know, but we need to be careful." After listening to Lu Wu's words, Yin Tiancheng nodded silently.
In the main hall, Li Yongxian talked and laughed freely, without any panicked expression. Yin Tiancheng heard the emperor say to him: "The two countries have been fighting for many years, and the people of Li have been devastated. ”
"This is the mercy of Your Majesty, and it is also a blessing to the people. I hope that the two countries will be friends forever. Li Yongxian took the gold-inlaid sandalwood box from the deputy envoy and said: "In order to show the sincerity of our country, my king specially presents the treasure Nine Dragon Pearls, and wishes Your Majesty eternal peace of mind, long live." ”
The most critical moment has arrived! Yin Tiancheng's heart was in his throat, watching Li Yongxian walk towards the dragon chair, getting closer and closer, Yin Tiancheng's pressure became more and more intense, and his heart became extremely anxious, Li Yongxian's calm performance made him not know when was the best time for him to make a move.
Li Yongxian finally walked in front of the emperor, within ten paces, he saluted again, put the treasure box on the imperial table, and once again bowed, his head pressed against the ground, as still as a stone statue.
It seems that he wants to induce the emperor to open the box with his own hands, I can't wait any longer! Yin Tiancheng subconsciously walked out of the queue, ready to crush Li Yongxian's conspiracy.
Before Yin Tiancheng could take action, the emperor resolved the crisis in front of him with one sentence, "A few days ago, someone also presented a Nine Dragon Pearl to me, why don't you identify it for me if it is a fake?" After saying that, he took out the jewel that Yin Tiancheng gave him from the imperial table, and the prince handed it over to Li Yongxian.
"Huh?" Li Yongxian was shocked after receiving the pearl: "In order to obtain the Nine Dragon Pearls, dozens of athletes in my country died in the belly of the evil dragon, and the hardships are difficult to describe. I thought that this pearl was not easy to obtain, it can be described as unparalleled in the world, but I didn't expect Your Majesty to have this pearl. Sure enough, it is a big country in China, and there are all kinds of treasures, and the ministers are full of admiration. ”
"Hahahaha!" The emperor's laughter was full of endless pride, and he said to Li Yongxian: "Since this one of mine is also genuine, please trouble Mr. to open the box and inspect the treasure, and compare them with each other to see which jewel is in better condition." The prince took advantage of the situation and returned the gold-inlaid sandalwood box to Li Yongxian.
Seeing this scene, Yin Tiancheng smiled, and people were no longer nervous. A hot potato returned to Li Yongxian's eyes in a blink of an eye, I'll see how you end! As long as you open the treasure box and the mechanism is activated, you will eat the bitter fruit yourself, and then you don't need me to do it yourself, Li Yongxian will lose his life. Yin Tiancheng opened his eyes and saw that the national teacher had already taken the dust in his hand, and the warriors in the palace were also ready to draw their swords out of their sheaths. It seems that everyone is ready, just waiting for the poor dagger to see it, so that Li Yongxian's true form will be revealed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister will be ugly." Everyone was extremely nervous, but Li Yongxian did not panic in the slightest, he lightly opened the seal of the treasure box and slowly opened the box.
What the? Yin Tiancheng couldn't believe his eyes, the colorful light shining in the box was another Nine Dragon Pearl! He felt like his brain was buzzing, like thousands of bees flying. He seemed to feel that the courtiers in the palace were looking at him with contempt, and he wanted to find a hole to drill into.
Yin Tiancheng saw Li Yongxian squinting at him again, and said with a smile: "The two beads are like siblings born of one mother, and the minister is clumsy, and he can't tell the advantages and disadvantages of the two beads." ”
The situation took a turn for the worse, and the emperor didn't expect that Li Yongxian really came to pay tribute to the treasure and had no other intentions, he sat on the dragon chair and couldn't speak.
"Holy." The princess broke the embarrassment in the hall with a speech, "The slave thinks this one is in the best condition." He took both orbs in his hand, presented one of them to the emperor, and added a sentence at the end: "This is the one offered by the king of Goryeo." ”
The emperor took the Nine Dragon Pearls, and the people came back to their senses, and said casually: "I am also confused, the most precious thing in the world is not a rare treasure, but the hearts of the people." The most precious thing in front of me is the peace brought by the king of Goryeo, how can I give up the basics. ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!" The courtiers, large and small, all knelt down on the spot and shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Yin Tiancheng stood there stunned and at a loss, until Governor Lin pulled him to the ground with a pale face, and then he realized that he came over and knelt down with everyone.
After everyone saluted, they returned to their original positions, and Li Yongxian also spoke, with a smug expression on his face. "Your Majesty, in order to show the sincerity of our country's peace talks, the minister will give you a big gift."
I thought that this farce would end miserably, but I didn't expect it to be extraneous again. Yin Tiancheng looked at Li Yongxian suspiciously, not knowing what tricks he was going to play.
"What are you going to give me?"
"I traveled thousands of miles to the Central Plains, thinking that I could successfully complete the mission. Who knew that after entering Beijing, there were accidents one after another, and the matter of facing the saint was also delayed again and again. However, this also happened to give me time to understand the truth of the matter, and after my open investigation and covert investigation, I finally found out that there was a shocking conspiracy hidden in it. ”
"What conspiracy?"
"Someone is plotting against you, trying to harm the Holy Lord, and then usurp your country." Li Yongxian's voice was flat, but it was no less than detonating a thunderbolt in the court, and the ministers immediately talked about it, and there was a lot of applause, but Yin Tiancheng suddenly felt that the spearhead seemed to be pointing at him.
"Who is it?" The emperor asked: "Who dares to do such a rebellious thing?" ”
"This person first instigated my deputy envoy Zheng Zhihao to sabotage the peace between the two countries, and then colluded with the demon thieves to prepare to commit rebellion in today's court."
"Tell me, who the hell is he?" The emperor said angrily.
"The other person is now in the Zichen Palace, and he is one of your ministers." After speaking, Li Yongxian's eyes began to shuttle in front of everyone, and finally fixed his gaze on Yin Tiancheng's face.
"Li Yongxian, don't spew blood!" Yin Tiancheng's face was angry.
"Lord Yin, I haven't said who the traitor is, are you a thief and don't admit yourself?" Lee Yong-hsien's words were aggressive.
The emperor asked with a gloomy face: "You said that Yin Aiqing is a traitor, but there is evidence?" ”
"Nope."
"Then how can you slander my good minister?"
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment, I will be able to prove that he is a traitor to the party right away." Yin Tiancheng saw Li Yongxian staring at him with a weird smile on his face.
Suddenly, Yin Tiancheng realized that he had made a fatal mistake, that is, he had always underestimated Li Yongxian, and now he finally understood why Li Yongxian was prepared today, it was because someone had already reported the content of his secret conversation with the emperor to Li Yongxian last night. Yin Tiancheng's heart began to be overwhelmed.
