When the iron horse heard the hooves, everyone in Shenjiazhuang was frightened, and their faces were full of helplessness. Liu Rong takes the lead and overlooks all living beings! Behind him, the forbidden army was murderous, and the war horses were also restlessly stamping their horses' hooves.

Lin Youzhi said loudly, "Shen clan Shen Tu, plot against evil, assassinate the saint, the Shen clan, it is difficult to escape the responsibility," he pulled out his long sword, pointed diagonally to the heavens and drank again, "Punishment!" ”

When all the forbidden soldiers behind him heard this, they all drew their long swords and shouted in unison, "Punishment! At this moment, they all tightened the reins of the war horses, and when the emperor gave an order, they slaughtered a Shenjiazhuang chicken and dog.

The momentum was huge, and the surrounding cottages and houses suddenly cried and dogs jumped.

Liu Rong slowly pulled out his long sword, and when his long sword was pointed, the killing would begin.

At this moment, a voice came from behind everyone in the Shen family, "Your Majesty, slow down!" ”

At this time, the voice of the old patriarch, he had already learned from the second person in the grain store that the person at the head was the current emperor.

Everyone in the Shen family could hear the voice of the old patriarch, and slowly let go of a small way, allowing the old patriarch to move forward.

When Liu Rong heard this, he also stopped drawing his sword, and those who were about to die should always be given a chance to speak and repent.

The old patriarch walked to the front of Liu Rong's horse and stopped. He slowly knelt down and said, "Grass people Shen Youwei, lead more than 400 members of the Shen clan, knock to see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!" ”

The people of the Shen clan, following the example of the old patriarch, knelt down and said, "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" The old patriarch knelt down, and everyone did not dare to get up.

He shook his head and said, "People gather by like, things are divided by groups, and now your Shen family's plan to do a great rebellion shows that your Shen clan is a traitor, and you should be punished!" ”

"Your Majesty, the grass people know that my Shen clan has committed a heinous crime, but I am willing to exchange a big secret for the lives of my clansmen!" The old patriarch still leaned over and said.

Liu Rong looked around, although the surrounding fertile fields are very extensive and the back mountains are abundant, but for them, this is still a poor and remote area.

He smiled and said, "The big secret? Okay, let's hear it! As he spoke, he turned his head to the forbidden army and said again, "Let's listen to what a big secret it is, and see if it can scare our guts?" ”

The forbidden army laughed, and Pang Bo also said contemptuously, "Let's hear it, I'm very curious!" ”

The old patriarch shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this secret is appalling, and only the emperor deserves to know it, if the grass people announce it, it will be very disadvantageous to Your Majesty, I hope Your Majesty will be cautious!" ”

Liu Rong frowned, he heard that he wanted to tell himself alone, which made him hesitate, although he had already started to practice martial arts, but the time was short, and there was no effect, there were many strange people in ancient times, in case the other party was holding the idea of dying with him, it would not be good.

But the dying man said that there was a great secret to tell him, and although he did not believe it, he was really curious and wanted to hear it.

Legend has it that curiosity kills cats.

Just when he finally suppressed his curiosity and wanted to draw his sword again, the old patriarch spoke again.

He looked up at Liu Rong, who saw that his wrinkled face was full of vicissitudes, his eyes were drooping, but his eyes were unusually clear, with a little sadness, sorrow, and more of a kind of resignation.

He said, "Your Majesty, the grass people are old, but my people still want to live, the grass people never dare to take the lives of the whole clan to offend Your Majesty, let the people be imprisoned, the grass people have been ashamed of the ancestors, if you bother the pond again, the grass people will be even more faceless to face the ancestors after they die, so Your Majesty can rest assured!" ”

After speaking, he pointed to the ancestral hall behind him and said, "Your Majesty will go to my Shen ancestral hall with the grass people, and the grass people will inform Your Majesty, and then Your Majesty will decide whether this secret can be exchanged for the life of my Shen family?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't, be careful of deception!" Pombo persuaded.

The same is true for the commanders of the left and right forbidden armies.

Liu Rong hesitated and pondered.

The old patriarch said again, "Your Majesty, the grass people can make my people kneel three feet back, and your Majesty's army will guard them separately." And the grass people are seventy and eight this year, their bodies are weak, their hands can't bind the chickens, their legs can't stride, your majesty can use the sword and the grass people's necks, if the grass people have bad intentions, your majesty can swing the sword to kill the grass people, and then slaughter my people! ”

Seeing that he was unswerving to talk to himself alone, Liu Rong's curiosity rerose.

At this moment, he estimated that the old man was unlikely to do anything wrong with him, maybe he should listen to the old man's words, maybe there was really a big secret!

Therefore, he said, "Okay, I will go with you and listen to your big secret!" ”

"Your Majesty, no!" The three commanders behind him persuaded one after another.

Liu Rong waved his hand and said, "I am ninety-five, holding a sharp blade, and there is a powerful iron horse behind me, if I am still afraid of the current old man who has no power to restrain the chicken, it will make people laugh when I say it!" Listen to orders! ”

"The minister is here!"

"Commander Pang led some soldiers to surround the ancestral hall, Commander Lin led the soldiers to guard the Shen clan on the left, and Wang led the right side, if it really has misdeeds, slaughter its clan!" Liu Rong gave the order, and said to the old patriarch, "In this case, let your clansmen stand back!" ”

The old patriarch was overjoyed, and he was afraid that the emperor would come up and slaughter all his people. Now it seems that the life of the clan is worry-free, and he believes in his secret, and he can definitely exchange it for the life of the clansman.

Then he said in a loud voice, "Kneel down and stand back, and if anyone dares to act rashly, he is a sinner of my people!" ”

The Shen clan knelt down and retreated to both sides, each holding their breath, fearing that a cough would cause the army to misunderstand, and at the same time praying in their hearts that the old patriarch could persuade the emperor to save his life.

"Your Majesty, you can dismount!" The old patriarch said. At this moment, in front of the ancestral hall, there is already a six-zhang avenue.

Liu Rong dismounted, topped out, waved his hand, and the three commanders behind him lined up according to his orders, pointing at the Shen clan, and Pang Bo led ten forbidden army sergeants to surround the ancestral hall.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Liu Rong pointed at the old patriarch and said, "You go first!" ”

The old patriarch still didn't stand up, he turned around, put his hands on the ground, and slowly crawled towards the ancestral hall, presenting the rickety's back to Liu Rong.

Liu Rong followed suit, the two passed the forbidden army guard, and the old patriarch pushed the gate of the ancestral hall and entered the ancestral hall.

From the entrance of the ancestral hall, you can see the interior of the ancestral hall.

The interior of the ancestral hall is densely displayed with enshrined tablets, and there are actually hundreds of them. The tablets are from front to back, from many to few, from low to high, and the last is the highest, with only one tablet.

I think it should be the ancestor of the Shen family.

In front of the tablet, there is a large stone table with incense burners, candlesticks, and tributes that have not been completely broken.

Further on, there is a futon for people to kneel and worship.

The internal structure of the ancestral hall is simple, but it can't hide dirt and dirt, Liu Rong suddenly put his mind at ease, and followed the old patriarch into the ancestral hall!

The old patriarch was still kneeling, exposing his back to Liu Rong, kneeling in front of the door, and slowly closed the door of the ancestral hall!

The sergeants of the forbidden army, each of the generals held their swords tighter, and in case His Majesty was in danger, they rushed to kill.
