As the saying goes, two countries compete with each other, and they don't cut each other.

Although Chen Li said that he killed the soldiers patrolling the city, since he took out the customs clearance documents, his status naturally became a messenger.

The general did not have the authority to behead him, so he could only personally lead a team of soldiers into the imperial city.

After telling His Majesty the King, not long after, a eunuch announced that they would enter the Jinluan Palace.

The sacrificial country is worthy of being a powerful country in the Western Regions, not to mention whether the army is strong or not, just from his vast imperial city and the magnificent Jinluan Palace, it can be seen that it is comparable to the non-treasure elephant country Che Chi Guo and the like.

"The monks of the Xuan Tang Dynasty are here!"

With a sharp and long call, Chen Li and his entourage, under the leadership of the little eunuch, walked into the Jinluan Palace.

On both sides of the hall stood the civil and military ministers, it stands to reason that the time of the early dynasty has passed, but for some reason, they still did not retreat.

The king of the Saisai country, who had extraordinary appearance and majestic eyes, sat on the dragon chair and watched coldly as the group of strange-shaped Dongtu envoys came in.

All the officials talked in low voices, not saying that the Tang envoys had lost the prestige of the country, but that they had made their own remarks on the killing of the soldiers patrolling the city in the city yesterday.

But the vast majority of them believe that Chen Li's trip is suspected of provoking the national prestige of the race country.

One of the hot-tempered generals stood up directly from the crowd, and then knelt down on one knee to the king, and said in a sonorous voice: "Your Majesty, although they are the envoys of the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Territory, it is really a great rebellion to kill the soldiers patrolling the city in the capital of our country. ”

"Weichen seconded!"

"Weichen seconded!"

"Weichen seconded!"

“……”

As soon as this general, who was a second-class official, said this, dozens of officials immediately agreed.

The king of the sacrificial race country sitting on the dragon chair fell his eyes on the hairy-faced monkey of His Royal Highness, and asked coldly: "Tang envoy, do you have any objections?" ”

When Chen Li heard this, he smiled lightly: "You want to sentence me to death, of course I have objections." ”

"You killed my soldiers patrolling the city, and it is natural to sentence you to death, what objection is there?"

The general turned around and said with a gloomy face.

When Chen Li heard this, he glanced at him coldly and asked, "Dare to ask this general, why did I kill that general?" ”

"This ......" When the general heard this, his face hesitated for a moment, and then he glared at him: "How do I know?" ”

"How do you know? If you don't know, why don't you tune in to the situation and then make a big shit? ”

Chen Li did not hesitate to throw out an extremely rude word.

When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty heard this, they were in an uproar.

An old minister who was close to Jiazi said angrily: "Splash monkey, you are still a messenger from the Tang Dynasty, how can you say such vulgar words in this solemn hall?" ”

"Am I rude?"

When Chen Li heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and then said in a slightly cold voice: "My words are rude, it's better than your behavior in sacrificing the Saiguo, if it weren't for the soldiers patrolling the city who teased my woman first, and drew a knife to kill me, how could I kill him?" ”

After speaking, Chen Li looked at the king of the sacrificial country on the dragon chair, and said in a mocking tone: "In vain, you still have the name of the state in the Western Regions, I can't imagine that in the imperial city, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are actually people who bully men and women, and I eliminate harm for the people, you courtiers, instead of finding out who is guilty, but come up to condemn me to death, such a narrow heart, also worthy of the title of state?" ”

He spoke loudly and loudly, and the ridicule in his words was like a pinprick in the hearts of these civil and military ministers.

But although these courtiers were angry, they didn't know how to refute it.

Because as far as they knew, it was indeed the soldiers who patrolled the city who molested the woman first, so they attracted the scourge of killing.

If they still want to say that the envoy of the Tang Dynasty is not, I am afraid that after the word spreads, the sacrificial country will really end up with a narrow-minded name that does not distinguish between right and wrong.

The king of the Saisai Kingdom was obviously also a little moved by Chen Li's words, and after thinking about it for a while, he sent an order to let people quickly investigate the ins and outs of this murder.

Because Chen Li killed the military master in public, it was not difficult to investigate the ins and outs.

Soon, the officials sent back and told the story of what had happened yesterday.

After hearing this, the Manchu civil and military officials all looked ugly, and secretly scolded this official for being straightforward and not knowing the secret to hide the facts.

After hearing this, the king couldn't help frowning slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said loudly: "Since you are the envoy sent by the Tang Dynasty to the west to learn scriptures, it stands to reason that this king should change Guan Wen for you and let you go west, but you killed my soldiers, the evidence is conclusive, although the soldiers are unreasonable first, but you shouldn't kill him, so ......"

"So, you're going to punish me?"

Chen Li sneered in his heart, his face was calm.

The king nodded and said: "If you don't cure your crimes, I'm afraid that the people of my sacrificial country will be dissatisfied, so let's do it, there is a pagoda in my imperial city, called the Golden Light Pagoda, the tower has thirteen floors, you sweep this tower clean, and this matter will be revealed, how about it?" ”

"It's as simple as that?"

After hearing the punishment that the king said, Chen Li couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He originally thought that if the king said that he would be arrested and locked up in prison for ten days and a half months, or pulled out of the palace and scolded him dozens of times, he would jump on the dragon chair and beat him, but he didn't expect that the king would just let himself sweep the tower.

Case......

Chen Li nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

The king smiled, and then shouted: "Come on, arrange a resting place for the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, and in addition, take this monkey elder to the Golden Light Pagoda." ”

After speaking, he waved his sleeves, "retreated", and then left first.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty exchanged ears, and most of them felt that His Majesty handled this matter too gently, but unfortunately, since His Majesty said so, then they didn't dare to say anything more no matter what.

Under the leadership of an old eunuch, Chen Li and his entourage went to a rather quiet and elegant courtyard, and after placing them, the old eunuch said to Chen Li: "Please also invite Elder Monkey to go to the Golden Light Pagoda with the old slave." ”

"Hmm." Chen Li did not break his promise and left with the old eunuch.

After the two left, Monk Sha couldn't help laughing and said: "I didn't expect that the king of this sacrificial country is quite enlightened, I originally thought that he really wanted to treat the senior brother for some crime, but I didn't expect that it was just to let him sweep the tower." ”

"Yes, it looks quite generous, but why did the monks of Jinguang Temple suffer a great injustice?" Shui Qingling sat on the attic stairs, tilting her head.

When Zhu Bajie on the side heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Sister-in-law, you can't just look at the surface, I want the old pig to say, this king is not generous, but the city is too deep." ”
