Chapter 25: The Birthday Banquet Part II

Song Huizong was discussing Fang Cai's firecrackers with the queen, and when he saw Wang Zixi jumping out, he thought he was going to play some birthday tricks, so he smiled and said: "Mr. Wang has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

But seeing Wang Zixi, he took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty!" After many investigations, the monk Wukong was not the presiding officer of Faming Temple at all, and he was not even a serious monk - even last winter, he was still a merchant walking the streets! ”

As soon as Wang Tsaixi's words came out, he immediately attracted countless excited eyes.

After Wu Kai 'talked' with Song Huizong for a few hours yesterday and was almost left in the palace, almost everyone guessed that the Taoist priests would fight back, but no one expected that Wang Zixi's attack would come so quickly!

Song Huizong raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with some displeasure: "Mr. Wang, this matter can be explained later, today is the widow's birthday, don't talk about things that have nothing to do with Fengyue!" ”

Wang Zaixi didn't expect that he would break the news, in exchange for Song Huizong's cold treatment, but for a while it was a little difficult to ride a tiger - he naturally saw that Song Huizong was a little disliked, but now how can he not send the arrow?

So he gritted his teeth and continued with a hard head: "Your Majesty! This Wukong monk violated the royal law that day, but he pretended to be a Buddhist disciple in order to survive! Such people who deceive the world and steal their fame, but they are mixed into the forbidden palace and serve the king, it is really not the blessing of my Great Song Dynasty! Please also ask Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate the origin of this thief in order to set the record straight! ”

As he spoke, he added: "Today, there is Chen Chong, the deputy of the imperial history, who was the governor of Dongping Mansion, and knows a lot about this matter. ”

Tut~

Wu Kai was thinking about it just now, how did this guy know his origins, if he sent someone to Dongping Mansion to investigate, he was afraid that half a month would not be enough time to go back and forth, but now it seems that it was Chen Taishou who leaked his mouth - no, looking at Wang Tsaixi's posture, then Chen Chong Bacheng has something to do with him!

This should be the 'big gift' that Wang Tsai prepared for Wu Kai in the past.

It's a pity that this Mr. Wang is a step late, if these secrets are shaken out before yesterday, Wu Kai will have to take off a layer of skin even if he doesn't die, but today, he is silent with a smile and is as steady as Mount Tai.

Listening to Song Huizong's helpless laughter, he waved his hand slightly and said: "No need to summon Chen Chong to play, what Mr. Wang said has long been known, but some of the details are different from what Mr. knows - Wukong Zen Master escaped into Buddhism not to survive, but not to kill more." ”

Wang Tsaixi was suddenly stupid, and said in amazement: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty already knows?! ”

"Dao Chief."

Without waiting for Song Huizong to explain further, Wu Kai stood up, came to Wang Zixi, and said with a righteous face: "Since the poor monk has the heart to support the society, how can he hide it from His Majesty?" On that day, I had no teacher, comprehended some subtle spells, and couldn't hold it for a while, so I killed two adulterers and Y women with direct complaints, but because of this, I was mistaken by the villagers for demons, and I also alarmed the government of Yanggu County. ”

As he spoke, he spread his hands and said: "Although I have a spell to protect myself, but I don't want to do more killing, at that time, I happened to capture a monk who came to catch demons - it is my current disciple Fahai, so I pushed the boat into the Buddha gate along the river to show that the poor monk is not a demon or evil thing." ”

He smiled at Wang Zaixi and said: "To be honest, if it was a Taoist priest captured at that time, I would have to call myself a Taoist elder brother - after all, in the eyes of the poor monks, this red lotus and white lotus root are originally a family, and there is nothing to distinguish between high and low!" ”

When Song Huizong heard this, he suddenly heard the ancient myths he heard yesterday, and couldn't help but say: "That's right, Wukong Zen Master is really open-minded, this Buddhism and Taoism are originally passed down by an ancestor, how can there be any distinction between the noble and the low?" Mr. Wang, this view of the portal is unacceptable! ”

Wang Zixi, Lin Lingsu and others were stunned, Buddhism came from foreign lands, and Taoism originated from Middle Earth, but how could it be passed on by one ancestor?

But the person who insisted on it was the emperor of the dynasty, and even if they were unhappy in their hearts, it was not easy to refute it face to face for a while.

Especially that Wang Zixi, who was looked at by Song Huizong with hope, was dumbfounded, and didn't know what to say, and in the end, Song Huizong was deflated first, waved his hand and said: "Okay, this matter has to be mentioned again, Mr. Wang, go back to the table and sit down!" ”

Seeing Wang Zai returning depressed, Song Huizong was also secretly dissatisfied in his heart, this Taoist priest is so persistent and different from the door, how can he be as reasonable as Wukong Zen Master?

Unconsciously, Wang Zaixi's status in his heart quietly slipped under Wu Kai.

Turning his face, Song Huizong was about to smile and let Wu Kai return to his seat, but saw Wu Kai salute and said: "Amitabha, today's birthday of Your Majesty, the poor monk has nothing else to do, only prepared some tricks for Your Majesty's fun." ”

Song Huizong was even more happy when he heard this, and secretly said that this is what it looks like to celebrate his birthday, so he hurriedly said: "That is the case, please ask the Zen master to demonstrate it quickly, so that I and my ministers can open their eyes!" ”

"The poor monk obeys the order!"

Wu Kai answered, and walked to the staircase under the expectant gaze of everyone, only to see where Huineng was already waiting, and pointed out a black rope on the ground to him.

Wu Kai is not possessed, there are words in his mouth, his legs are not eight, half loud, and suddenly he swept out with a foot close to the ground!

Everywhere on the tiptoes, a few sparks suddenly lit up on the ground, and then a sneering sound was heard, and the sparks went down the stairs at a rapid paceβ€”the fur of the boots brushed the white phosphorus on the ground, and lit the fuse that was laid against the wall.

The fuse burned to the city, but it was suddenly divided into more than a dozen lines of fire, which burned in different directions, but then I heard a loud bang, but it was like the sound of firecrackers, which was louder than several times, and a few flames rose to the sky!

Seeing this scene, many people in the city and under the city exclaimed in surprise, but Lin Lingsu's master and apprentice were full of disdain, and a sentence of 'carving insect skills, class door axe' was contained between his lips and teeth, and before the spray was about to come out, he heard another 'bang' sound in the air.

Everyone looked up and forgot about it, but they saw countless fireworks blooming in the sky, red, yellow, blue, green and purple, just like a hundred flowers blooming in spring!

Bang bang bang~

This is not the end, just as everyone exclaimed, another wave of fireworks sprayed into the air, followed by a third wave......

Although there is no aluminum-magnesium alloy as a luminous agent [this thing will not be available until the end of the eighteenth century], the brightness of the fireworks bomb is worse than that of later generations, but the people of the Song Dynasty have never seen a real fireworks bomb, and more than a dozen boxes of weakened versions of the fireworks bomb combination are enough to make everyone stunned!
