Feng Leong didn't care about the blazing torches on the long street; To the large group of tiger and wolf warriors with crossbows and swords, Feng Long was disdainful. With a sneering smile on his face, he walked slowly and calmly, as if the long street in front of him was the imperial garden in his palace. It wasn't until his gaze turned to the two masters that his footsteps were slightly suffocated.

But he only stayed for a moment, and then he walked again. Step by step.

The guards' palms were dripping with cold sweat, and no one could not be nervous about the filth of the upper yin. However, as a warrior who protects the country, a firm mind is the most important training, and if you really encounter any obstruction from the fox fairy and resentful ghosts when performing the mission, they are afraid of returning, but they will never back down. But this is the ...... in front of you. The Inner Court Guards are the Guards of Glory, proud, calm, careful, ruthless, and faithful, all of which derive from a creed: the supremacy of the Emperor.

The belief that every Phoenix Palace guard imprints in his bones is the ghost emperor in front of him.

I can't do it, I don't dare to do it, and after the courage dissipates, there is only fear in my heart.

The Ghost Emperor no longer looked at the loyal guards of the past, walked directly to the two old nuns and stopped, and with a pair of eyes picking radishes and cabbages, he turned around between the fishless and the lonely stones, and the smile on his face became more and more evil. Maybe it was because Lone Stone's handprint was softer, but in the end, Feng Long looked at Lone Stone and moved his mouth, as if he had said something.

Lone Stone didn't know what the other party was talking about, which was not surprising, and she couldn't hear the ghost words, which only meant that her cultivation was not enough. But Lone Stone is not afraid, at this moment her limbs and hundreds of bones are bathed in smoke and warmth, the light of the Buddha is shining inside, and she is not afraid of the demons outside her body!

The old nun held the Dharma seal firmly in her hand, and kept chanting in her mouth, holding her mind tightly, indifferent to Feng Long's nonsense.

The ghost emperor's lips moved endlessly, obviously a long speech, but it was enough to 'say' a cup of tea, Gushi never reacted, and he gradually showed an impatient aura, and from beginning to end, Long Live Lord always left a piece of afterglow on Song Yang's face.

Song Yang stood in place and didn't move for a moment, but he was 'very busy', and most of his mind was used to monitor the guards behind him, in case any reckless person showed the meaning of 'fighting ghosts', he had to take the lead to suppress it...... The ghost emperor 'said' half a cup of tea again, Song Yang in the afterglow nodded slightly, Feng Long immediately changed to an angry look, as if he had no patience to talk to Gushi anymore, and flicked his sleeves suddenly, almost at the same moment, the old nun suddenly felt that the comfort and warmth in her body were ten thousand times stronger, and the 'soft sunshine' just now turned into a blazing magma that devoured the bones of the rotting soul in a blink of an eye, and it was painful to wander around.

The body could never bear the pain, even if he practiced for another hundred years, he couldn't resist it a little, Gushi's body trembled violently, poofed out a mouthful of black blood, jumped up half a foot from his sitting position, his body straightened, and he fainted before he could fall back to the ground.

Song Yang moved very fast, grabbed half a step and reached out to catch the lonely stone, snatching her back into his own formation. A master was hit by an evil ghost, and everyone was horrified, and Wuyu immediately whispered: "Don't act rashly!" ”

No one dared to move.

The Ghost Emperor regained his smile and slowly turned his head to look at Wuyu.

Different from the lonely stone who was concentrating on chanting mantras and chanting sutras before, Wuyu looked calmly, sitting on the ground with his head raised and looking at the ghost emperor, his eyes were clear and his expression was serious.

Feng Long's mouth moved, still silent nonsense that mortals could not hear.

The guards smiled bitterly in their hearts, it is estimated that Wuyu's fate will not be much better than that of Gushi, but unexpectedly, when the ghost emperor finished speaking, Wuyu suddenly shook his head, his lips buzzed, and he said something silently, the ghost emperor's face obviously changed slightly, and his lips moved again...... Not only can they listen, but they can also speak, and everyone was surprised, and their hearts relaxed a lot, the premise of 'some talking' is to be able to talk first, and Master Wuyu's practice is indeed more profound. And Song Yang didn't care about treating Gushi for the time being, turned to face his companions, and gestured anxiously with a face, signaling everyone not to relax, let alone move or make a sound. Sure enough, the guards and nuns relaxed a little, and the ghost emperor's gaze also became cruel, and he no longer paid attention to Wuyu and raised his eyes to look at them.

Wuyu's eyebrows were furrowed, his mouth was moving rapidly, I don't know whether to advise now or talk about the 'main topic' to distract the spirit of the evil spirit, Long Live Lord is magnanimous, he didn't bother with the 'little ones' anymore, his eyes drooped, and he continued to negotiate with Wuyu.

In the silent nonsense, Feng Long's expression kept changing, sometimes disdainful, but sneering, but angry, sometimes focused; And Wuyu's expression is always so solemn, soft but firm, when talking to the ghost, there is not much difference from what she usually speaks, although I can't hear it, let alone understand what they are saying, but everyone from Wuyu's expression to appreciate the quiet... She was originally quiet.

After a long time, the conversation across the two worlds of yin and yang finally ended, Wuyu closed his mouth, the ghost emperor frowned slightly, lowered his head and pondered, I don't know what he was thinking, half a pillar of incense was silent.

Half a pillar of incense, in the eyes of others, has been a long time for several rounds of cold and summer...... The Ghost Emperor suddenly laughed.

Feng Long was laughing, but there was no joy in his smile, but he laughed exaggeratedly, silently looking up to the sky and laughing, without saying a word, he turned around with his hands behind his back, his steps were still calm, his shackles were rubbing on the ground, his shoulders trembling, and he obviously laughed non-stop.

Master Wuyu put away his handprints, sighed heavily, and struggled to stand up, bowed and folded together.

No one knows what they talked about, and no one knows if the ghost emperor will be troubled in the future, but it is certain that because of Wuyu's best efforts, everyone finally passed the current hurdle.

Suddenly, there was a muffled thud, and a guard fell to his knees and bowed to the back of the Ghost Emperor.

After one person, there was the second and third people, and all the guards on the long street knelt on the ground, and no fish told them not to speak out, but this worship was worth a thousand words. Feng Long was not an outstanding emperor, his talent was ordinary and young, and Nanli did not flourish in his hands; But he is a good person, enthusiastic and hearty, he does not dare to be arrogant, he does not dare to indulge, and he can't make money, so he has to save money desperately...... Feng Long could hear the movement behind him, his eyes were full of tears, and he didn't dare to look back, after today, he was really 'dead', the dignity of a country, the lonely ghost in the yang world!

…… Before the ritual of not coming to the Zen Monastery was over, through the arrangement of Master Du, Song Yang went to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment to visit Emperor Fenglong.

Feng Long lives in the prison, the food and accommodation are exquisite, and the surrounding area has been cleaned up for a long time, although it is dark but it is very quiet, and the most important thing is that it is safe here, and there is no need to worry about it, and it is much more energetic than when he was hiding in a private house.

As soon as he saw Song Yang coming, the emperor was in high spirits: "Why did it take so long to come, how did you do the rebellious thing?" ”

Song Yang didn't hide it, he told him about his experience in the past few days, and then explained his intention and asked the emperor to pretend to be a ghost on the street...... Pretending to be a ghost is scary, it seems to be very funny, when Song Yang explained the step arrangement, Feng Long laughed while listening.

But after Song Yang finished saying everything, Feng Long didn't nod in a hurry, and waved his hand to Gonggong Li, who was waiting beside him: "Help Yifeng to go out for a walk, I and Chang Chunhou have something to say." ”

After the two left, Feng Long said lightly: "Song Yang, I am not stupid enough to do that. ”

Song Yang smiled apologetically and didn't say much.

"There is more than one way to kill a traitor and bring down a traitor." Feng Long had no intention of elaborating or explaining, but directly stated the result: "No matter which method is used, King Jing can be killed, and the difference is only ...... After quelling the rebellion, who is the man sitting on the dragon chair. ”

After being put in prison by his loyal courtiers and getting out of danger, Feng Long calmed down a lot. Without the catastrophe of killing at any time, after the mind is stable, the thinking will naturally be clear, and the emperor has thought a lot in the past few days.

Feng Long's gaze was firmly fixed on Song Yang: "If you pretend to be a ghost, I will become more and more 'dead', your method, in the final analysis, is to help the king of Zhenxi ascend the throne." ”

The words were very vague, but Song Yang could fully understand what he meant...... Hong Leong has a chance to 'see the sky again'. For example, when the traitors were ambushed and everything was calmed down, the imperial court announced the 'truth': Long Live was kidnapped and imprisoned by the rebels before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the one who died in the parade was just a stand-in.

The micro-service was greedy for fun, and as a result, the traitor was given an opportunity to kill the queen mother, which was the emperor's own fault, disgraced the people, and unqualified; The kidnapping is 'passive', this explanation can barely be explained, although it will reduce the prestige of the emperor, but the impact is far less than the former, and Hong Leong can return to the throne and sit back in the dragon chair.

Song Yang was silent for a moment, and then said, "Since I learned the truth about the rebellion, I have made up my mind two times, the most important one, no matter what, I can't let Yan Guo's plot succeed. This is the biggest premise, I help you, but also to help myself. ”

After Feng Long nodded, Song Yang continued: "The second idea is what you just said, who will be the emperor after the judgment?" This thing... There's not much to hesitate about, between you sitting back on the dragon chair and King Zhenxi taking charge of Nanli, I'll choose the latter. But... I heard Chu Rong say before that the king of Zhenxi is loyal, and if he wants to take the throne, he will already be the emperor of Nanli. ”

The secrets of the palace are unknown to outsiders, but the matter is related to the king of Zhenxi, how can he hide it from Ren Churong. Feng Long continued to nod, what Song Yang said was true, if the king of Zhenxi wanted to make a difference when the first emperor died, Feng Long would not have a chance to ascend the throne at all.

"I'm not sure if King Zhenxi wants to be the emperor or not, so what I have to do here is to 'maintain the status quo' while overthrowing King Jing." Speaking of this, Song Yang was afraid that Feng Leong would not understand it, so he deliberately explained: "When I say 'the current situation', I mean 'everyone thinks that Feng Leong is dead, but Feng Leong still has the opportunity to publicize the 'kidnapping truth' and return to the dragon chair." ’”

The words were very awkward, and Song Yang had some difficulty in speaking, but fortunately, Feng Long understood, and gestured for him to continue.

"Maintain the 'status quo', so that after the king of Zhenxi returns to Beijing, he can become the emperor himself, or he can support you to return to the throne... I don't care who is the emperor, how I choose it is according to the prince's wishes, he will be very calm. ”

Feng Long's tone was not good: "I didn't see it before, you are really a good son-in-law, and you are very thoughtful for your father-in-law!" ”

Song Yang is not aiming at the old prince, he is doing all this for Chu Rong and Xiao Fu, but he understands this kind of thing himself, and he can't explain it to others, so he continues to get to the point: "So I never thought of using such a method as pretending to be a ghost before." But... After not coming to the Zen Monastery to escape and rescue the real Master Wuyu, I had another plan: no matter what, I also wanted to keep the reputation of Wuyu. If you don't say that you're a ghost, you can't 'live' back, otherwise the prestige of Zhen Wuyu will be lost. ”

"I thought about it carefully, if you come back alive, no matter what kind of 'truth' you make up, Master Wuyu's prestige will be greatly affected, and you can't have both, but I can't control King Zhenxi, if he returns to Beijing and insists on helping you return to the throne, it will hurt Shitai's reputation, so I can't let you 'live' anymore."

If Feng Long is not allowed to live again, of course, he is not going to be killed now, Song Yang is referring to taking the emperor's death to the truth and then sitting on the truth, erasing the opportunity to announce the 'truth', and not giving Feng Long an excuse to 'live' back.

The facilities in the cell are not as good as the dormitory, but there is everything that should be there, Song Yang got up and poured a cup of tea for Feng Long, handed it to him, and then said frankly: "Understood? What I have to do now is different from the beginning, I have to kill King Jing and quell the rebellion at the same time, and at the same time, I will confirm your death again and again, and I can't let you be the emperor again. ”

Feng Long was cold: "So you came to ask me to pretend to be a ghost?" My ghosts have run out and wandered, and the world has even more completely killed me. ”

Song Yang nodded first, and then shook his head: "Yes, but more importantly, this is also one of the steps to deal with King Jing, and the two things are done together." ”

After speaking, Song Yang was silent for a moment: "Actually... You've earned it, haven't you? ”

Feng Leong was noncommittal, and continued to ask, "If I pretend to be a ghost, what will happen to you; If I don't agree, what will happen to you? ”

"If Your Majesty agrees to help, I will take you to Yanziping after this incident, and from then on I will be a guest and my surname will guarantee you prosperity and worry-free in this life; If you don't help," Song Yang scratched the back of his head, really distressed, and said with a smile: "When you were the emperor, I really dared to poison you; Now that you're in trouble, and I'm an acquaintance, you can't do it... I really don't know what to do. It's still as I said before, dealing with King Jing is the top priority, if you don't want to help me, I can't just leave it alone and let Dayan occupy Nanli... Hey, anyway, it's a lot of trouble. ”

Unexpectedly, Feng Long smiled: "Don't worry, just do as you say, you can tell me the details of the steps of pretending to be a ghost again." ”

The emperor's words stunned Song Yang and asked directly, "Why?" ”

"As you said, I have earned it. If I hadn't met you, I would probably have died in a dilapidated house and a cold kiln by now, let alone revenge and counterinsurgency. To say that this is the will of heaven, to say that in a small way, this is also a heavy grace, Feng Long is not a person who knows how to repay kindness. ”

Song Yang smiled: "Talk about the scene, get to the point." ”

Feng Long waved his hand, he was also the emperor anyway, so he wouldn't go to Song Yang to pretend to 'Will I repay the favor', and continued: "Second, I can't trust you!" What are you saying now that you are familiar with me, and you can't bear to do it......" Feng Long believed that no matter whether he helped or not, Song Yang would take action to quell the rebellion. Song Yang has strong reinforcements from the west behind him, Hongbo Mansion in Beijing, Prime Minister Zuo, Du Shangshu, Murong and many other forces to respond, and the most important thing is that Song Yang still holds two big cards in his hand, Wuyu and the emperor, and there are ways to bring down King Jing. This time, Feng Long refused to pretend to be a ghost, and he had no choice but to find another way to deal with King Jing.

It doesn't matter if you pretend to be a ghost or not, what really matters is that long live 'returning to the world' will affect Shitai's prestige and affect his next plot.

If Feng Long has returned to the throne, he naturally doesn't take Song Yang in his eyes, but the situation in front of him is very clear, Song Yang will not let himself go back, he really wants to do it, how can he wait for the emperor to return to power.

If you don't cooperate, maybe after the rebellion is quelled and the day before the king of Zhenxi enters Beijing, he will be poisoned and killed...... Feng Long slanted at Song Yang: "Also, I listened to the meaning of your words just now, have you ever poisoned me before?" ”

Song Yang shook his head with a smile: "No, you have too much heart... Don't say that after you only said it before, things are not as unbearable as you say, I don't want you to ascend the throne again, but it's true that 'you can't do it', if it really doesn't work, I estimate that most of you will be tied up and sent to Yanziping by then. ”

Feng Long waved his hand: "It's not the same, anyway, I can't be an emperor with you." After speaking, the conversation changed and returned to the original topic: "I promised to help you, and the third reason is... My son is still alive, and I can trust the king of Zhenxi. ”

The crown prince is still in the palace. King Jing was afraid of falling into the truth, so he did not cut off Fenglong's young son, anyway, that little doll had no support from the queen mother, emperor, and queen, and had no identity but no power, so it would not affect anything at all.

Song Yang was purely a little curious: "Are you really so confident in the King of Zhenxi?" You look at the people... Hehe, I don't think it's too accurate. ”

Feng Long took a sip of water and said with a smile: "It was my father who said it, he sees people very accurately, so I believe it." ”

Feng Long is not talented, but his father, the previous Emperor Nanli, is the real son of Yingming, and the national policy of pacifying the barbarians in the mountains and integrating the many ethnic groups in the country was not formulated by him, but was completed from his hands, and the current stable situation in Nanli is due to Feng Long's father.

His father trusted King Zhenxi, so Feng Long also had confidence in King Zhenxi. Feng Long put down the teacup in his hand, relaxed his body, and leaned comfortably on the back wall: "When the king of Zhenxi returns to Beijing, he will support my son to ascend the throne and assist him with all his might. ”

Song Yang nodded and repeated: "I don't care who will be the emperor of Nanli, it's all up to the king of Zhenxi." ”

Feng Long nodded: "If I believe in the wrong King of Zhenxi, I want to ask you for help, I will rescue the doll, but it is still a child, don't hurt his surname." ”

Song Yang nodded happily to this, and Feng Long continued: "Finally, I want to put forward another condition, if it is really my son who ascends the throne, the Marquis of Changchun ......."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Song Yang said: "I understand what you mean, don't worry, I will protect him." ”

Feng Long's smile was helpless: "I don't dare to expect you to protect him, just ask you not to cheat him." ”

The situation is pressing, Feng Long bowed his head, and he pulled out one reason after another, but the deepest and most important reason in his heart never spoke: it is easy to deceive the world, but it is difficult to deceive yourself. The current situation is of course due to the collusion between internal thieves and external ghosts, and the conspiracy is deliberately planned, but it is also inseparable from himself.

If you don't play hard, don't pay a private visit, and don't get yourself a mirror, the enemy won't be able to do anything.

The queen mother and the queen died because of themselves. In order to take revenge, Feng Long is not afraid of a thousand cuts; But when it comes to being emperor again, Feng Long should be really disheartened.
