Chapter 263: Search
The man kept calling the ghost in his mouth, and he was so frightened that his feet were bouncing on the ground, and the sound was very loud.
Instantly, the lights were lit up in the house next door or even across the street, and many people began to trot to the window and push the window to look.
Sihan frowned, his heart tightened, and he immediately forcibly supported his body to get up, and was about to hurriedly go up to point at the frightened person, but unexpectedly, his feet were stiff and staggered, and his legs were suddenly unstable, and the whole person immediately fell to the ground, hit his head, and was immediately unconscious.
The fire in the palace of the king of Chu has been burning for a day and a night before the fire gradually decreases.
The people of Chu Jing also stayed in the house for a whole day and night, and only when the war had subsided did they dare to open the door slightly and step onto the street.
The weather is cold and thin, and the black clouds are overwhelming, and the gloom makes up for it.
It was a mountain storm, but it never really rained after all.
The streets of Chujing were everywhere, blood and water spread, and the surrounding people spontaneously began to clean the streets with water. The basin of water was splashed out, and the blood was heavy, and when I looked at it, I felt terrified and numb.
Those teahouses in Chujing gathered a lot of tea customers and listeners, and they were like a market. The storyteller insisted that the inkstone had to be knocked on the table, and finally made the discussion in the audience subside, and then continued to talk about the turmoil in Chujing two days ago.
That is, the bloody storm has passed, but now that he said it, the people present still felt thrilled and nervous.
The battle was undoubtedly devastating, they stayed at home cautiously, and they could hear the blazing sound of the fire from afar, and even the hideous and miserable screams of the flesh and skin cracking, that feeling was undoubtedly a knife hanging over their heads, and they couldn't tell when the people who were fighting would crash open their doors, so that the hanging knife above their heads would fall down and cut off their necks.
In that shocking change, everyone in Chu Jing was in danger, and after the fight, they carefully opened the door of the house for the first time, and when they saw it, they were all full of blood, and the corpses were slanted.
That kind of scene is undoubtedly too terrifying, and the heirs of the family suddenly saw it and cried in horror.
They had to hurriedly cover the door of the house, quickly coax the child, and wait until the child fell asleep in crying before daring to go out again, but at that time, the Great Chu Guards were already starting to quickly pick up the corpse.
But they were just picking up corpses, and they didn't care about the blood and water on the ground, so they had to come and erase the hideous traces left by the earth-shattering battle.
The storyteller spoke very vividly and brightly, but the more they listened, the more they were afraid, and suddenly they didn't dare to listen more.
Someone was about to leave, but suddenly, there was a loud noise outside the house or outside the building.
They were taken aback, and subconsciously went out or crowded in Loulan to take a look, and saw that on the long street that was about to be cleansed of blood, dozens of Jingwei and palace slaves opened the way, dozens of courtiers and Jingwei finale, such a large formation of people and horses, actually surrounded by a chariot slowly coming.
The chariot was covered with purple yarn on all sides, and it was rich and powerful. And in the chariot, there was a person lying slightly, the figure was long, and seemed to be slightly thin, but lying so reclining, it looked amorous for no reason.
And at the feet of that person, there are still two palace slaves kneeling, and the palace slaves are rubbing the legs and feet of the man with their hands softly.
Who was the man in the chariot? Even such a swagger through the market, you have to be accompanied by the ministers of Da Chu?
Everyone present was stunned and frightened, and after a moment, someone in the team suddenly shouted, "The new emperor has arrived, and you still don't salute?" ”
Weiyi's voice is full of coldness, and this voice is colder than the snow in the cold winter wax moon.
The people present were stunned, and before they could come back to their senses, Jingwei suddenly drew his sword in the team, and viciously raised his eyes and swept towards them.
They were suddenly frightened, subconsciously kneeling and shouting, waiting for the group to go away completely, suddenly there were several officials in the street around the posting of the Ming Emperor's imperial list, until everyone gathered around the onlookers, only to see the meaning written on the notice, that is, the king of Chu and the prince of Chu were killed in yesterday's battle, and now the second prince of Chu Xiao Yu succeeded to the throne, change the great Chu to Zhou, hereby announce to the world.
Xiao Yu, the second prince of Da Chu......
When everyone saw the notice, most of them were confused. Just because in Chu Jing, no one has ever heard of the second prince of Great Chu, nor has he ever heard of this person's deeds, and it is undoubtedly surprising that such a person suddenly ascended the throne as the emperor.
Everyone looked at each other one after another, asking Xiao Yu, the second prince of Great Chu, who he was, what his deeds, how could the people of Chujing not have heard of him, and how could such a little-known person ascend the throne as the emperor, so as to support the entire Great Chu?
Just when everyone was confused, shocked and surprised, suddenly, many slightly older people came back to their senses, shocked and stunned, and began to say that Xiao Yu, the second prince of Great Chu, died violently more than ten years ago, but now he suddenly appeared and ascended the throne as the emperor, is it the second prince of Great Chu who came back from the dead, or that the second prince of Great Chu did not die more than ten years ago?
As soon as these words came out, doubts were completely spread in Chu Jing, and even the secret news of the death of Xiao Yu, the second prince of Great Chu, and the death of the former queen of Great Chu also spread layer by layer, and it was fermented.
At this time, the palace of the king of Chu has already been newly arranged.
The palace slaves are cleaning everywhere, and they are rigorous, and they can't be slack.
It was almost noon, and the four-sided purple veil finally arrived at the gate of the palace surrounded by hundreds of officials and guards.
Instantly, the palace slaves who gathered at the gate of the palace and waited knelt down one after another, and shouted respectfully and carefully, "Slaves (slaves) meet the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." ”
A uniform voice, respectful and majestic.
But after these words fell, the people above the chariot did not move at all.
For a moment, the surrounding atmosphere was silent, silent, and depressing.
None of the people present dared to speak, and even the atmosphere was so suppressed that they didn't even dare to breathe.
After staying for a long time, seeing that the person on the chariot was still not moving, all the officials were full of astonishment, and they began to look cautiously at the person on the chariot with courage.
This oppressive and silent atmosphere has been silent for a long time.
Seeing that the hour was not early, the courteous official walked forward cautiously in a cold sweat, and when he stood next to the chariot, he said respectfully and carefully: "Emperor, Emperor, the hour is not early, if it is, if it is not very early to enter the palace to perform the enthronement ceremony, Xu Yes, Xu will miss the auspicious time to ascend the throne." The ceremonial officer spoke with great caution, and his tone was full of respect and fear.
However, when these words fell, on the chariot with purple yarn, a peaceful and warm voice suddenly rose, "What's your name?" ”
This voice is extremely gentle and soft, and the tone is also very gentle and appropriate, without half a sharp meaning, and even these words into the ears, it also gives people a sense of spring breeze, gentle and appropriate, as if hearing a shock.
The ceremonial officer was stunned by surprise, and his expression was in a trance for a moment.
He thought that he had heard this wrongly, and he had also misheard the man's soft and spring-like voice, and in his impression, the new king in the Bu Yuan had single-handedly washed thousands of people in the Forbidden Palace, and even knocked the people of all countries to pieces. He even saw with his own eyes in the pavilion of his house that the new king of yesterday was fighting alone in a pool of blood in a white robe.
The shocking picture that stood up to the sky almost shattered his heart. I also thought that this person could wash thousands of people in blood, he must not be an idle person, and his temperament must be as arrogant and fierce as a martial artist, but unexpectedly, the new gentleman's blurted out voice was so gentle and soft, as if he was a stumbling son, how could there be a little bit of hideous and fierce spirit.
The ceremonial officer's face was also stunned, and for a while, he forgot to reply.
It was a moment, and someone opened his mouth and drank coldly, "The emperor asked you something, why didn't you answer." ”
These words were as cold as ice, and they were full of evil.
The ceremonial officer trembled suddenly, and his eyes subconsciously followed the sound, and he saw the person in front of him shouting at him, covered in a capable black robe, the whole body was long and strong, resolute and fierce, and his face was crossed with a hideous and piercing scar, and his pupils were also pricked with needles.
This angry person is undoubtedly not easy to mess with, everyone has a heart, presumably this person in the green robe must also be a cold person.
Seeing that the pupils of the green-robed man met him, the ceremonial official's heart jumped sharply, and he didn't dare to look at it again, so he hurriedly lowered his eyes and replied intermittently and respectfully: "Back to the emperor, Wei, Weichen's name is Liu He, Nai, is the Great Chu Rite Official." ”
He replied extremely cautiously and tremblingly, but as soon as these words came out, some people present gasped.
He was stunned for a moment, and was stunned, but unexpectedly, the new monarch who was lying on the chariot spoke again, "Da Chu? ”
It was only two words, but his voice was a little long, but it was only for an instant, he suddenly smiled lowly, his mellow voice was as warm as ever, and then said: "Lord Liu, do you know what the contents of those imperial lists posted everywhere in the city today are?" ”
This was said with a smile, but Liu He was terrified, and cold sweat began to gush uncontrollably on his forehead.
Why did this new gentleman suddenly ask like this? Could it be that there is anything wrong with what he just said?
was about to think about it, but the bottom of his heart suddenly reacted, his pupils shrank sharply, and his whole body trembled. His legs suddenly began to weaken, the whole person fell limply, and fell to the ground in embarrassment, but he didn't dare to vent the air, and he didn't even dare to rest, so he had to hurriedly support his body on the ground with his hands and feet, and was about to kowtow to forgiveness, but before he could blurt out, the person on the step had spoken gently and gently, "The imperial list issued today has already been posted in the capital of Chu, and my country of Great Chu should already be for the country of Great Zhou." Now the people of Chujing still know about this, but Lord Liu forgot it alone, and even changed the wrong name of the country in front of me, which is undoubtedly insulting my country of Great Zhou. ”
Buttoning down this hat will undoubtedly kill him!
Liu He choked on the words, his face turned pale, and the whole person immediately kowtowed violently on the ground, and said in a hurry and horror: "The emperor spares his life!" Wechen is just a quick talker, not intentionally wrong! And Weichen has always been loyal to the Great Zhou Kingdom, how dare he be suspected of insulting the Great Zhou Kingdom, I hope that the emperor will be clear, and I also hope that the emperor will go around Weichen once. Wei Chen will not dare to call the wrong name next time, and hope that the emperor will spare his life. ”
The more he spoke, the more hoarse his voice became, and his whole body was covered in a layer of cold sweat in an instant.
Before hearing Xinjun's words, he didn't dare to stop kowtowing, and his forehead hit the ground over and over again, muffled and tight, but he didn't dare to slack off.
The surrounding atmosphere is still silent and depressing. Everyone present was tense, everyone was in danger, and they didn't dare to meddle.
They don't know what kind of means this new monarch is, and what kind of temper the new monarch is, they naturally don't understand either. But what the new monarch has done in this day and night, presumably the people of Chujing know very clearly.
The people who can completely wash Chu Jing with blood, and even some of the red-clothed Jingwei in Chu Jing have never let go, with this kind of courage and ruthlessness, they are afraid, and they really don't dare to provoke them.
"Lord Liu is not a child, and he should be responsible for the mistakes he made. What's more, this time the emperor list has been lowered, I am a hundred officials of the Great Zhou, I have to lead by example, don't make a mistake in the name of my country, if even my officials and ministers of the Great Zhou take the lead in saying wrong, how can the people below really remember and care. ”
The breeze and elegant voice made people inexplicably frightened.
But after a while, the voice of the person on the chariot raised his voice, "Yes, the crime committed by Lord Liu is unforgivable." Someone comes, cut Lord Liu, cut blood and splash the red carpet of the palace, be sure to let him, the blood and water are left to die. ”
It was still a soft and warm voice, and the tone did not show any edge, but the words of these words were cold and cold, cold and sinister.
The people present were shocked, Liu He was already frightened, and the whole person looked at the people on the chariot in a daze, his head was blank, and he forgot to speak for a while.
In a moment, there were guards who immediately walked up quickly, holding Liu He left and right, Liu He trembled, and finally came back to his senses, and immediately roared violently to intercede, but before the words were finished, the left and right guards had drawn out their swords and arms his two wrists.
In an instant, blood spilled down his fingertips, and the color of blood spread.
The people present gasped, and then, finally, someone couldn't stand it, and immediately walked forward slowly, stood respectfully on the side of the chariot, and said in a low and respectful voice: "The emperor's accession to the throne is a happy event, if you see too much blood, it may be unlucky." I hope that the emperor will think twice, that is, Lord Liu is at fault, and it is not too late to deal with it after the emperor's enthronement ceremony is completed. “
"This time I ascended the throne, I stepped on countless lives to ascend the throne, so, do you really think that I will believe in the so-called bad luck and will be afraid of blood?" The person on the chariot spoke out leisurely and casually again, and said, his voice raised slightly, and he chuckled, "I have the ability to ascend the throne, and I am not afraid of the so-called auspicious clouds, let alone fate. Although Liu He's crime today is not to death, he was the first to collide with me, and I naturally had to use him to make an example of him. Today's events, Wang'er and others keep in mind, I am not a good person, if anyone displeases me, I guarantee that the consequences will be borne by Dingfeier and others. If you do a good job, you will win my heart, and you will be promoted to a knighthood, and I will not be stingy. ”
As soon as these words fell, he lowered his eyes and glanced at the frightened Liu He, and the man spoke again, "Enter the palace." ”
The words of a leisurely seat are gentle and easy-going, but they are threatening and cautious.
The people present did not dare to say anything more, so they hurriedly led the man's chariot respectfully towards the gate of the palace.
At this time, the palace has already been renewed, and all places have been cleaned and tidy.
This enthronement ceremony, not in the ancestral temple mausoleum, but only in the palace, even, because the new monarch's temperament is not too good, coupled with the lack of patience, is to use this enthronement ceremony is also a little hasty, the civil and military officials and even palace slaves present are full of caution, acting cautiously, when the enthronement ceremony is completed, the new monarch and his entourage all left, the hundred officials and palace slaves in the palace are like escaping from the Yama Palace, full of horror and fear, their legs are weak, and most of the people present have collapsed.
Because of the arrival of the new monarch, the palace slaves did not dare to slack off, and they acted more cautiously.
In the entire Chujing, the emperor's list was posted, and the new monarch ascended the throne, but none of the people in Manjing were happy, and more were the aftermath after the war.
On Chu Jing's streets, the blood had just washed away, and the bluestone slabs were wet all over the ground. There are more than half of the people coming and going on the street, and even the street vendors only have a few people coming out to set up stalls.
When it was dusk, the fire that had burned for a day and a night in the palace of the king of Chu was finally all extinguished, and some curious people went to watch, and when they saw it, they were all black lacquer ruins, and the pieces of broken walls and ruins were hideous and dilapidated, where there was still the majestic grandeur of the past.
This shocking change in Chu Jing has also been fermenting in Chu Jing for a day, and even today, the new monarch killed Liu He, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, in front of the gate of the Xinggong Palace, is also spreading in Chu Jing.
The people of Chujing, everyone is in danger, and the impression of Xinjun in their hearts, in addition to the fortitude and ruthlessness of the bloody battle, is moody and ruthless.
Yes, he is ruthless, and the new monarch is undoubtedly more ruthless and hard-hearted than the previous King of Chu.
The people are all worried, and they don't dare to imagine how miserable and desolate the whole country will be in the future with such a cold and ruthless new monarch in the Great Zhou.
For a while, in the midst of Beijing, helplessness and sadness shrouded and depressed.
When the officials returned home, they were also nervous and afraid, and their hearts were heavy, and their family members asked tactfully, but they just gritted their teeth and shook their heads, not daring to say more.
The sky gradually darkened, and there was silence in all directions.
When it was just nightfall, all the houses were lit up, and in the bright palace, a long line of Jingwei suddenly left the palace quickly, and then they began to search people door to door.
The people were all in danger and disturbed, but the attitude of those Jingwei who came into the house was inexplicably polite, and they did not even rummage through the boxes and cabinets to loot wantonly, but after entering the house, they looked around carefully, and did not destroy anything or harm anyone.
