384 Father, Do You Like It?
The barrel was waist-high, and the two strong men of the size couldn't ring it, and after the red silk was lifted, a strange smell suddenly wafted out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It seems to smell but not smelly, pungent and unbearable, like the smell of rotting things, and with a strong blood.
At this time, when the wind was rising, the smell wafted to the banquet with the wind, and those courtiers and noblewomen covered their mouths and noses, only to feel nauseated, while the military generals such as Kao, Yuguo Gong and Yanhou were faintly discolored, and Lu Qingping put his hand on the saber.
They had gone through life and death, how could they not smell the smell of blood emanating from the bucket.
King Xuan stood at the front, the barrel was not far from him, he couldn't help retching when he smelled the smell, covered his mouth and frowned and wanted to ask, but when he looked up, he saw the contents of the barrel out of the corner of his eye, and immediately screamed, and took a few steps back with a white face, almost falling to the ground. And Empress Dowager Xiao and Emperor Chu and others on the high platform easily saw what was in the bucket because of the terrain, Ning Guifei and Hui Shufei screamed in unison, and almost at the same time covered their mouths and retched to the side, and Concubine Xian's face was also bloody, trembling her lips and clutching the corner of the table so as not to lose her temper.
Emperor Chu's face was gloomy, and his eyes swept towards Rong Jing like electricity, and although Empress Dowager Xiao did not scream, she also sat down on the chair with a shocked face.
The barrel contained more than a dozen heads that had been deformed and rotted, but were still staring wide-eyed!
"What's wrong with the Queen Mother and a few mothers? But the king's gift is not good enough? Rong Jing raised his lips lightly and looked at a few people on the stage, and when his eyes fell on Ning Guifei and Hui Shufei, who were vomiting in the dark, he teased: "Or are the two mothers unhappy?" Look at Concubine Ning and Concubine Shu's mother vomiting so much, it seems to be happy, could it be that the king wants to add two younger brothers? ”
Xue Rou sat on the seat and heard this, she almost squirted out the wine in her mouth, Ning Guifei and Hui Shufei looked like they were happy, were they obviously scared?
The other people at the table also looked at the few people on the high platform with strange faces, and there was an indescribable mystery in their eyes.
Emperor Chu was so angry that his forehead was bruised, and Ning Guifei and the others had the heart to speak, but they turned their heads and saw the things in the bucket, but they continued to vomit.
"You! You! ”
Empress Dowager Xiao covered her chest with a pale face, and there was no blood on her lips under her shocked face, she had never seen dead people, when the emperor was still on the throne in the early years, she used countless means to kill in order to survive, for power, and to support Emperor Chu to ascend to the throne, and there were even more people who died indirectly at her hands, even she couldn't remember how many, but when she looked at the dead corpse so directly, she had never seen it before, those people were dripping with blood on their heads, and their skin had already been maggots and rotten, but their eyes were wide open, Like a ghost, he can still see their unwillingness and disbelief before death.
Empress Dowager Xiao slammed the table and said angrily: "King Ling, you are so bold!" ”
"What's wrong with this king?" Rong Jing raised an eyebrow.
Seeing this, Empress Dowager Xiao looked even more angry, and she angrily reprimanded: "Today is your father's birthday, you dare to send such a bloody thing so rebelliously, you are simply damned!" ”
Rong Jing lifted his thin lips lightly when he heard this, a pair of peach blossom eyes were cold and rippling, and the bewitching face under the sun made the surrounding women blush and heartbeat, he looked at the Empress Dowager Xiao with a smile and said: "What is the Queen Mother so excited to do, it's just a few prey, this king is not like a few brothers who have the power and money, and they don't have the ability to find rare things, so I have no choice but to get some prey to give to my father, is it possible that this should also die?" ”
Empress Dowager Xiao was furious, and her eyes were full of frost.
The people around were very far away from the wooden barrel, the barrel edge was very high, they couldn't see what was in the barrel when they sat in the banquet, they only thought that King Ling had done something out of the ordinary, and even the people who smelled blood first such as King Hua and Yu Guogong only thought that King Ling had made a few bloody prey as gifts, which would scare Ning Guifei and the harem concubines.
They couldn't help but secretly reprimand the Empress Dowager Xiao for making a fuss, although these things were a little unlucky to send on her birthday, but in the past, King Ling had done more things than this, and it was even more out of line that they hadn't seen before, they all couldn't understand why Empress Dowager Xiao was suddenly so angry in this kind of scene, and even said the words of death.
Although the envoys of other countries were curious, they knew that the barrel was probably not a good thing when they saw the expressions of Emperor Chu and Empress Dowager Xiao, they were all very discerning people, silently drinking wine on the side, but Hu Yanbo looked at the barrel and Rong Jing next to the barrel, and a gloomy color flashed in his eyes.
Emperor Chu's face at this time was not much better, although the human head in the barrel had rotted and his face was extremely unfamiliar, but such bloody and dirty things appeared on his birthday banquet, which made him look ugly, he didn't know what Rong Jing was messing with, who these people were, but just by looking at the Empress Dowager Xiao's expression, he could roughly guess that what could make her so discolored, the head in the bucket was afraid that it was related to the Empress Dowager Xiao, not to mention that Rong Jing had been unable to get along with the Empress Dowager Xiao since he was a child, which was also something he had known for a long time.
In the past, he was happy to hear about it, but now he only felt a headache, if there was no one in front of him, he might also be happy that Rong Jing could make Empress Dowager Xiao suffer, but now there are not only Southern Chu courtiers in the palace, but also envoys from various countries, although he is annoyed that Rong Jing is messing around like this, but he also knows that the contents of the bucket cannot be seen by outsiders, Emperor Chu glanced at Rong Jing fiercely, and said with a cold expression: "King Ling, this is the congratulatory gift you gave me?" Well? ”
The last coda was a clear indication of his anger that he could barely hide.
Rong Jing smiled very brightly: "Of course, Erchen finally ordered someone to catch these guys, these guys are cunning and abnormal, and there is a big guy behind them, Erchen almost lost his life for them, Erchen thought that his father and Erchen had always been in touch with Erchen and sent it to his father, does his father still like it?" ”
Emperor Chu gritted his teeth angrily when he heard this, and the green tendons on his forehead were rising, and he really wanted to catch this little son who didn't know the height of the sky and teach him a lesson, but in a blink of an eye, he saw the eyes of the Empress Dowager Xiao who wanted to devour people, and he had to grit his teeth and say: "You bastard!" Peng De, go cover it with red silk and order someone to carry King Ling's "birthday gift" down! ”
"Your Majesty, King Ling is so nonsense, how can you connive at ......?"
"Queen Mother!"
Empress Dowager Xiao just wanted to stop it, the people in the bucket were all the people she sent to King Ling's Mansion and King Ling's side, and there were even the people she trusted the most, how could she give up easily, but Emperor Chu seemed to know what she wanted to say, and looked at her coldly, his eyes were full of frost and shock.
