Chapter 657: Traitor
"Emperor, what are you doing here?" As soon as she entered the inner hall, the Queen Mother raised her eyes and saw that Lao Jiu was about to be pinched by Mo Bai, and she was immediately shocked.
didn't care about talking to Hu Qingyan and the others, he immediately ran to Mo Bai's side, stretched out his hand to break his hand, and shouted urgently at the same time: "You let go!" ”
Mo Bai glanced at the Queen Mother, but stared at Lao Jiu without saying a word, and the killing intent in his eyes seemed to be condensed into substance.
The hand like an iron palm, no matter how hard the Queen Mother wields, she can't move a single bit.
Hu Qingyan and the others were a little relieved when they saw the Queen Mother coming.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but be more and more horrified.
They all felt that this time King Ming really moved to kill, and it was no longer to scare the new emperor.
Several people were in a cold sweat, and they could only keep begging to let Mo Bai calm down.
"Let go, let go!" The Queen Mother saw that Mo Bai didn't even listen to her words, and Lao Jiu's side was obviously getting weaker and weaker, and she was about to die.
Her tears suddenly fell in a hurry, and she couldn't break Mo Bai's hand, so she raised her slap and slapped it on Mo Bai's hand.
When she entered, she could already see clearly that the Praetorian Guards had gathered outside, and the bowstring was tight.
Others don't know, she knows that King Ming's so-called influence on the forbidden army is bluffing.
At this moment, the forbidden army is already aiming at the imperial study, once Mo Bai kills Lao Jiu, it will be difficult to fly today.
She couldn't let Mo Bai be impulsive, so she would accompany Lao Jiu to the funeral.
"Click......" Lao Jiu's face was already dark, his mouth was open, his eyes were bulging, and he was about to be unable to get up in one breath.
And Mo Bai still showed no signs of letting go, the real person who came in with the queen was anxious, but he still didn't dare to attack Mo Bai, for fear of angering Mo Bai, as long as Mo Bai used a little force, Lao Jiu would be unable to save the immortals.
He could only dodge behind Lao Jiu, stretched out his hand and put his palm behind Lao Jiu, mobilized Jingyuan to help him smooth his breath, and opened his mouth to transmit: "King Ming, stop, if you really kill the king, even if the forbidden army can't help you today, the will left by the emperor will be announced immediately to the world, I know that you are not afraid, but how should the queen mother deal with herself at that time?" ”
Except for Mo Bai, no one in the temple heard these words.
Everyone stared at Mo Bai's iron palm on Lao Jiu's neck, and their hearts rose to their throats.
Among Hu Qingyan's several people, King De looked at Lao Jiu, who was getting weaker and weaker, he was the most reluctant to see this meeting, and he was already crying bitterly at this moment.
The Queen Mother was still beating Mo Bai's arm, her voice was getting more and more urgent, and the slap had already slapped Mo Bai's face, but Mo Bai was still indifferent.
Mo Bai didn't say a word, he always stared at Lao Jiu, his face was cold and terrifying, and the murderous intent in his eyes was up and down, which made the Queen Mother tremble.
This is not the first time she has seen Mo Bai angry and make a move with someone, but when the killing intent came up, Mo Bai who didn't even care about her words, was really the first time she had seen it.
In the past, whenever outsiders talked about how vicious and brutal Mo Bai was, she always thought it was a rumor with bad intentions, but at this moment, she really realized Mo Bai's resolute will after the killing intent came up, which was really chilling.
"Let go, let go, the queen mother begs you, you can't kill him, you can't ......" The queen mother was anxious with pear blossoms and rain, constantly shaking her head and begging in a trembling voice.
"Your Highness is angry!" All the ministers bowed in unison.
Mo Bai, who had been in a stalemate for a long time, suddenly threw Lao Jiu out at the moment when he saw that he was about to lose his breath.
"Bang!" With a bang, Lao Jiu was thrown on the dragon chair, and regardless of the pain, he reflexively bowed up, and grabbed his throat with his hands like a boiled prawn, retching.
Everyone's hearts were suddenly mentioned with Mo Bai's movements, and then suddenly put down.
The real person was the first to react, and almost on the spot of Mo Bai's movements, he moved with the shadow and appeared beside Lao Jiu to help him.
And the Queen Mother's body was weak, and she fell directly to the ground, and her tears still couldn't stop falling.
Hu Qingyan and the others sat down on the ground, constantly wiping the cold sweat oozing from the top of their heads.
No one made a sound again, until Lao Jiu's retching sound gradually stopped, he gasped, straightened up, lay down on the dragon chair, opened his red eyes, and stared at Mo Bai.
Mo Bai's gaze shot away, and he looked at him again, the killing intent in his eyes had converged, and only calm remained.
The letter written by Qu Guochang to Qiman in his hand was slowly raised, and under the gaze of Lao Jiu, the light in his hand flashed, and his white arm shook slightly, and the letter suddenly turned into crumbs and slowly fell: "For the face of the Queen Mother, I will endure you one last time." ”
Lao Jiu covered his neck with his hands, which was still like fire, just staring at Mo Bai and not making a sound.
Mo Bai ignored him, leaned down and helped the Queen Mother, who was still in shock, to help him up, and then looked at him again: "Will you still participate in the enthronement ceremony two days later?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the Queen Mother's hand holding Mo Bai suddenly tightened, and Hu Qingyan and the others all looked nervous, looking at Mo Bai's calm face, and then at Lao Jiu, who was still sitting on the dragon chair and still breathing heavily.
Lao Jiu always stared at Mo Bai, his eyes were full of hatred when he heard the words, his lips trembled, but he didn't answer.
Mo Bai waited for a while, and when he saw that he didn't answer, he let go of the hand holding the Queen Mother, then turned around and walked towards Lao Jiu again.
The Queen Mother took his hand and shook her head, but Mo Bai said softly: "It's okay." ”
After that, he raised his feet and walked towards Lao Jiu, and the real person stepped forward and blocked in front of Lao Jiu, and Hu Qingyan and several people also hurriedly stopped in front of Mo Bai.
Hu Qingyan said repeatedly: "Your Highness, don't be impulsive, the matter of ascending the throne, the ministers will definitely discuss it with Your Majesty." ”
Mo Bai was stopped by them, stood still again, looked at Lao Jiu behind the real person, his face was not turbulent, and after a slight groan, he pushed away Hu Qingyan and the three of them, and walked towards the dragon chair again.
The real person stared at Mo Bai with solemn eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness! ”
Mo Bai walked up to him, raised his hand, and motioned for him to get out of the way.
The real person stared at the inky white eyes, very hesitant, but in the end he still let go of his body, but warned: "Your Highness, it's better not to mess around." ”
Mo Bai's figure was exposed in front of Lao Jiu, Lao Jiu's subconscious figure trembled slightly, Mo Bai confronted him, staring at him condescendingly: "I know, you must think in your heart that I won't kill you because I don't dare to kill, I can't kill, right?" ”
Lao Jiu stared at him, still silent.
"Let me ask you again, will you attend the enthronement ceremony two days later?" Mo Bai asked again.
The breathing of everyone in the hall tightened again, only Lao Jiuyi's breathing became heavier and heavier, his eyes were red and staring at Mo Bai, and he never said a word.
Mo Bai nodded, and suddenly reached out and grabbed him by the shoulder, lifting him up from the dragon chair.
"What are you doing?" Lao Jiu's hoarse voice finally sounded.
Mo Bai didn't speak, only pushed him aside, then turned to look at everyone, and finally slowly sat down on the dragon chair under everyone's shocked gaze.
Including Lao Jiu, his eyes widened at this moment, and he looked at Mo Bai in disbelief.
Mo Bai calmly turned his head to look at Hu Qingyan: "Announcing the world, the new monarch suddenly fell ill and died last night, because there is no heir to pass on to the throne, so King Yingming is the emperor, and the enthronement ceremony is held as usual." ”
"Your Highness!" Hu Qingyan was shocked, and Zhang Bangli took the lead in snorting: "This must not be." ”
"Why not?" Mo Bai asked indifferently.
"The change of the throne, how can it be so hasty, if so, the world will be in chaos." Zhang Bangli categorically objected.
Mo Bai was still calm, nodded and asked, "Who is messing up." ”
Hu Qingyan stepped forward: "I'm afraid that the ministers of the DPRK and China will not accept it and cause chaos." ”
"Why not?" Mo Bai said: "Lao Jiu has collapsed, and there are no heirs left, this king is the queen mother's concubine, I don't take the throne, who will take the throne?" ”
Lao Jiu listened to Mo Bai beside him say that he had collapsed so lightly, and his face was extremely pale, but when he saw that the ministers were obstructing, his gaze at Mo Bai became cold again.
He really thinks that Mo Bai doesn't kill him, not because of whose face it is, but because he doesn't dare to kill him, he can't kill him.
"But the emperor collapsed suddenly, what is the reason, it is not a few words to convince the public." King De also hurriedly said
"People have good and bad luck, who dares to say that life and death are certain? A little gossip, just suppress it, there is no real evidence, whoever dares to jump out, kill it, there is one, kill one, kill two, there is a lack of everything in this world, that is, there is no shortage of people who are willing to be officials. Mo Bai said in a deep voice.
"If the minister is not satisfied, His Highness can kill him, if the military general is not satisfied, and the troops are in chaos, what will happen to His Highness?" Zhang Bangli's face turned pale.
"The banner barbarians are fierce, this king is single-handed, and he dares to enter and exit three times, can he still be afraid of the rebels of our country, who dares to mess up, suppress it!"
"What kind of repression?" Zhang Bangli asked.
"The six military commanders of the dynasty don't believe that they are all opposed. This king has always been the main battle, and he also respects the generals who dare to fight, and he never hesitates to support him if he can. In this way, those who want to oppose me should be weak and afraid of war, and these rats will be swept away with a wave of their hand, no matter how loud they are. Mo Bai's voice was categorical.
When a few people heard this, their hearts were immediately awe-struck, and they had to say that Mo Bai's words were really not a bluff.
The six powerful military marshals, not to mention the others, I am afraid that Fang Shuai alone will not oppose King Ming.
Combined with King Ming's foundation in the forbidden army, I am afraid that it is very likely that there will be other marshals to support him, so that King Ming is really likely to suppress the military.
With swords and guns, you can deter Wenchen from rebellion.
"How the dynasty is, let's not mention it for the time being. The warlords were afraid that they would rebel at that time. Zhang Bangli said again.
"You overestimate them, they make some small moves, and this king believes them. If it is said that there is a blatant rebellion, this king really does not believe that they can have such courage. When the emperor was the first, he was able to force them to unite against the barbarians, and the king didn't dare to say anything else, several warlords, one counted as one, and I really couldn't see who dared to compare fierceness with this king, who dared to start a civil war with this king. Mo Bai's eyes were raised, and the murderous aura suddenly exploded.
As soon as these words came out, the hall was quiet for a long time, and Hu Qingyan slowly spoke: "It's hard to say that the warlords are openly and secretly, but they will definitely not continue to fight against barbarians, what will happen then?" ”
This time, Mo Bai was no longer able to sustain his momentum and remained silent.
Lao Jiu on the side, seeing this, his face softened slightly.
But he didn't want to at this time, Mo Bai looked at him: "What Elder Ge said is right, anti-barbarism is the only place where you can threaten me, it's ridiculous, and ridiculous, threaten me with the responsibility that originally belonged to you, if the first emperor knew about this situation, I am afraid that he will regret passing it on to you......"
After that, Mo Bai didn't care about his face, and looked at Hu Qingyan again: "Do you still remember a sentence?" Those who win the hearts of the people win the world! ”
Several people looked at each other, puzzled by the meaning of ink white.
"Resistance to barbarism is the will of the people, what did the Lin family rely on, why did it encircle and suppress many times but it was always inexhaustible, because the dynasty lost the hearts of the people, especially after the invasion of the banner barbarians, the people became more and more disgusted with the civil war, they thought that it was wrong not to fight the flag barbarian dynasty, and the Lin family who shouted to resist the barbarians was righteous, so they helped the flag barbarians to resist the national dynasty."
"If I am in power, the warlord will hinder the barbarian matter, but in the long run, we will win the barbarian resistance. Unite to resist the barbarians, if the warlords do not unite, I will fight by myself, the eyes of the people are bright, they will choose to support us, as long as we win the hearts of the people, I will have an endless supply of soldiers, even if the city is temporarily abandoned and the land is abandoned, one day, we will still win this battle. ”
Speaking of this, Mo Bai turned his head to look at him again, stood up, and pointed to the dragon chair behind him: "I don't have time to spend it with you anymore, if you are not stupid, you should be able to see that I am ready to face everything, it is not necessary for you." Finally, I ask you again, do you sit on this chair or not? ”
Lao Jiu finally lowered his head: "I'll sit!" ”
When Mo Bai heard this, he didn't say a second word, and turned around and left with the Queen Mother.
There were several people in the hall, and they did not say a word.
Everyone's eyes slowly converged on Lao Jiu, and everyone understood that this time was not as good as the last time.
The minimum decency of the last time was still there, and this time, Lao Jiu had nothing left.
After a long time, Hu Qingyan arched his hand at Lao Jiu, and then turned around and went out.
King De looked at Hu Qingyan's back as he turned around, was silent for a long time, and finally turned his head and walked out of the imperial study.
Neither of them spoke, Lao Jiu just stared at their backs, and did not stop them, treating them for the crime of rudeness.
Only Zhang Bangli stayed in the imperial study and didn't leave, Lao Jiu looked at him and asked in a hoarse voice, "What are you still doing here?" Look at my jokes? ”
Zhang Bangli knelt down, kowtowed, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it shouldn't be like this." ”
"Haha......" Lao Jiu suddenly burst out laughing, his hoarse voice was extremely ugly, his tears of laughter flowed wildly, and it took a long time to stop laughing, rushed over, and kicked Zhang Bangli over: "It was you who killed Qu Guochang, it was you who broke my last hope, didn't you hurt me when I fell to this end?" Zhang Bangli, what King Ming said back then was right, you are a traitor. King Ming will regret it, he will regret saving you from my sword today, because sooner or later this dynasty will die in your hands. ”
With that, Lao Jiu waved his sleeves and strode away.
"Alas!" The real person watched this scene and finally shook his head, leaving a sigh and disappearing.
Only Zhang Bangli was left, slumped on the ground with his eyes closed, two lines of old tears sliding down his cheeks.
