Chapter 65: Havoc in the Palace

After listening to the shopkeeper explain the reason, Tang Seng's face couldn't help but change.

Because, he remembered similar events that had happened in the history of the Central Plains.

That was before Datang.

At that time, it was also because of the large number of monks that threatened the status of the imperial court, so the imperial court began to limit the number of monks and bring temples and monks under the control of the imperial court.

All monks, whether monks or Taoists, are issued by the government to prove their identity.

In this way, it is also convenient for the government to control the number of monks and facilitate unified management.

It seems that the destruction of France is following the old path before the Central Plains.

It is no wonder that the new king will go on a killing spree, and it is no wonder that the Buddha is inconvenient to intervene in this matter.

Zhu Bajie also rarely did not complain and ate with his head bored.

Night.

The group gathered in the inn room to discuss the matter.

"Immortal, how do you think we should persuade the king about this?"

Tang Seng couldn't help but glance at Gu Ming, wanting him to help him get an idea.

Gu Ming sighed: "Elder Tang, in fact, you should know this matter in your heart, there have been such incidents in history, and the scale is even larger. ”

"This ......"

Tang Seng also sighed.

Sha Seng frowned: "However, no matter how you say it, you shouldn't go on a killing spree, and you actually killed nearly 10,000 monks......"

Gu Ming said: "Indeed, this approach is not right. But if you think about it, the total population of France was only 40,000 or 50,000, and there were nearly 10,000 monks......"

Sun Wukong couldn't help but say: "Don't mention the past, the key is that now, it is estimated that there are no monks in France, if we reveal our identity, then the king will inevitably have trouble with us."

But if you don't reveal your identity, you won't be able to change Guan Wen'......"

"Yes, this is indeed a big problem...... Tang Seng sighed: "I can't say it, let's wait here, waiting for other monks to die for us." ”

"It's okay, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided. You masters and apprentices must face this matter calmly, and enter the palace tomorrow to see the king. ”

"Huh?" Tang Seng couldn't help but exclaim: "But, aren't we going to fall into the net?" ”

Gu Ming smiled and said, "It's not that serious, after all, your identities are different." Besides, even if the king wants to do it, if you don't fight back, what else can he do to you? ”

"Yes, yes, Master, tomorrow you will put on that brocade robe, so that you can be invulnerable, and the king will not be able to help you at all."

The matter has come to this, and Tang Seng can only respond.

Early the next morning, Tang Seng and his entourage changed into monk's robes and appeared in the lobby of the inn.

As soon as he appeared, it caused a commotion in the lobby......

"Oh my God, how can there be a monk living here?"

"Don't they know that death is coming?"

In order to receive the reward, some people ran away to tell the whistle.

Tang Seng and his entourage walked not far away, and a team of officers and soldiers came over with great momentum.

Count one, exactly four.

"Great, just enough 10,000 to arrest these four monks."

The leader waved his hand and shouted.

"Stop!" Gu Ming immediately stood up: "You have to wait for Hugh to be presumptuous!" ”

The team leader couldn't help frowning, looked at Gu Ming and asked, "Who are you?" Such a big breath! ”

"I am the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, this is the master of the Tang Dynasty holy monk Xuanzang, and I am also the imperial brother of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, these three are the three disciples of the master......"

"Huh? He is the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty? ”

"And that monk is a holy monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty?"

"Doesn't look fake......"

At this time, the officers and soldiers finally reined in a little and did not forcibly take people anymore.

The team leader stepped forward and said, "Since you are a guest from the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Soil, then please follow me into the palace to meet His Majesty the King." ”

So, the group went to the palace with the guards.

Along the way, many people pointed fingers.

"Add these four, exactly 10,000 ......"

"Yes, it also saves people from panic in the future......"

In the palace, a guard hurried to the king's dormitory to report it.

"Your Majesty, four monks have been caught."

"Oh? Great, I can finally make up 10,000. ”

The king looked surprised.

"But ......"

The guards stopped talking.

"What's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, these four monks have a special background, they are from the Eastern Tang Dynasty......

The king was taken aback: "From the Tang Dynasty?" Could it be the Tang Sanzang master and apprentice who was called the holy monk? ”

"Exactly, there is another person who walks with their master and apprentice, and that person claims to be the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty."

"This ......"

The king frowned.

Now, it's not easy for him to start.

After all, the reputation of Tang monks and apprentices is widely spread, and it involves the great prestige of the Tang Dynasty.

After thinking for a while, the king couldn't help but say, "In this way, summon them to the main hall, and this king will see the situation first." ”

"Yes!"

The guards took the order and left.

Soon after, the four Tang monks and apprentices came to the palace hall with Gu Ming.

"Poor monk Xuanzang, see His Majesty the King."

Although Tang Seng was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't want to offend the king, after all, he had to change Guan Wen, so he stepped forward and gave a salute.

But Gu Ming, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Seng stood upright, without the slightest intention of saluting.

Then the king would not be pleased.

Who is he?

He is the king of a country!

Now he sits high on his throne, ready to bow down to the strangers.

It's just that if you don't kneel, you can't even see a salute?

This is clearly not to take him as a king in his eyes.

So, the king immediately lowered his face, raised his hand and pointed at Gu Ming and the others and said angrily: "Why don't you kneel when you see this king?" ”

Sun Wukong couldn't help laughing and said, "It's up to you? Do you know the name of my grandson? ”

The king couldn't help but be stunned, and subconsciously glanced at the ministers.

The ministers didn't seem to understand what Sun Wukong meant.

Gu Ming took the initiative to step forward and explain: "This is the Monkey King canonized by the Jade Emperor, as the name suggests, it is the same as the sky.

And Your Majesty...... is just the king of a small country, and he can't even be called the Son of Heaven, so how can he be worshiped by the Monkey King? ”

"That's right, don't talk about you, even if it's Rulai, Guanyin, and the Jade Emperor, my grandson doesn't worship any of them.

If I really want to worship you, do you think you can bear it? ”

When he heard this, the king could not help but be stunned on the spot.

Then he became angry, raised his hand and pointed at Gu Ming: "That's good, he's the Monkey King, aren't you?" Why don't you kneel?

If you can't come up with a reason, this king will condemn you for the crime of disrespect and push you out to behead the public! ”

Gu Mingle said: "Out of courtesy, I just called you Your Majesty...... Do you know who I am? ”

"You...... Who are you? ”

"Below is the country of Baoxiang, the country of black chickens, the country of Chechi, the country of daughters, the country of sacrifices, and the country of Zhu Zi...... and other national teachers of countries. ”

"What?"

"Is there such a thing?"

"It seems that there is such a thing, I heard someone mention it last time......"

The ministers couldn't help but talk about it.

The muscles on the king's face trembled, and he said, "Even so, so what? After all, the national teacher is also a courtier, and this king is the king of a country! ”

"Your Majesty, at the same time, you are still the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, do you know how big the Tang Dynasty is?"

"This ......"

The king glanced at the ministers again.

"Let me tell you, Datang has more than 300 state capitals, more than 1,000 counties, and the least populous county has a population of tens of thousands.

In other words, when a king like you arrives in the Tang Dynasty, it is roughly equivalent to a sesame seven-pin county order.

Even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has to be honored as Mr. in the next voice, how old are you? With such a big breath, let him kneel in the lower line? ”

"You...... You ......"

The king was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Your Majesty is angry, there may be some misunderstanding in this matter......"

A minister hurried out to persuade him.

The legend about the Tang Dynasty is also very popular in France.

Therefore, they do not want to easily offend the national teacher from the Tang Dynasty.

It's a pity that the king has always been arbitrary and domineering, and he can't listen to persuasion at all, so he raised his hand and shouted: "Come on, take them down to this king!" ”

"Yes!"

A group of guards responded in unison, and then surrounded them with murderous energy.

"Amitabha!"

Tang Seng has always liked to be reasonable, but now he is too lazy to speak.

What's there to talk about?

If it were reasonable, there would be no war, no prisons.

Gu Ming stood at the very edge, and the two guards twisted him first.

In order to take care of the king's face and pat the king's ass, the two guys deliberately pressed Gu Ming's shoulder hard, and shouted: "Kneel!" ”

Don't you like to be reasonable?

Isn't it said that why should you bow to the king?

Then hit you until you kneel!

Press!

Press ~ again

Why can't I press it?

"Two more people~"

The two guards were red-faced, and they summoned two more companions, and the four of them pressed together, and one of the guys kicked Gu Ming's leg violently......

"Bang, bang, bang, bang~"

There were four thuds in the hall, and the four guards fell to their knees inexplicably, and no matter how hard they struggled, they couldn't get up.

On the other side, the other guards also encountered a similar situation, and they wanted to lock up Tang Seng and his apprentice.

But he never thought that as soon as he locked it, the chain would break......

"Hahaha, what kind of chain are you? Tofu, right? ”

Zhu Bajie laughed very arrogantly.

Seeing this, the king was so angry that smoke rose from his head, and in a fit of rage he shouted: "Cut off, cut off their heads!" ”

"Your Majesty, never!"

Several ministers saw that the matter was about to make a big fuss, and hurriedly stood up to persuade them.

After all, Gu Ming and the others came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

Although it is far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, since Tang Seng and others can come here, who dares to guarantee that the army of the Tang Dynasty will not be able to go here?

One is the imperial emperor of the Tang Emperor, and the other is the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, if he really wants to kill the two of them, the Tang Dynasty will definitely not give up, how can the small destruction of France withstand the revenge of the Tang Dynasty?

But the king is already red-eyed, where will he think about the consequences?

"Do it, do it to this king!"

The guards did not dare to resist the king's order, so they had to wave their swords at each other.

The results can be imagined.

Although Tang Seng is said to be a mortal, after more than ten years of cultivation, compared to ordinary people, he can already be called a top master.

At least, an ordinary sword couldn't hurt him at all, let alone that he was still wearing a brocade robe.

Several of the guards cut off their knives, and they didn't hurt Gu Ming and the others in the slightest.

"Your Majesty!" One of the ministers knelt down in fright and said loudly, "Your Majesty, they are messengers of God, so don't do it again." ”

In fact, at this time, the king was also dumbfounded.

It can be described as a dilemma.

Submit to it, where will his face go?

Come on, he saw the situation with his own eyes, and he couldn't help the other party at all.

"Your Majesty, stop!"

Some ministers came out one after another to persuade them.

At this time, he finally gave the king a step down, got up and said, "This king is lazy, you can do it." ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

The king and a minister hurriedly retreated from the guards, stepped forward to apologize to Gu Ming and the others, and said: "Actually, the king is also suffering from this, and I hope you will forgive me." ”

"Forgive me?" Sun Wukong couldn't help sneering: "Some things don't just mean to forgive. He sows the cause of evil, and he swallows the evil effect. ”

"This ...... Everyone, why don't you take you to the post house to rest first? ”

Tang Seng did not refuse this.

So, the group followed the minister to the post house and stayed, and was received with the highest standard.

Although the king has a bad attitude, the minister also knows in his heart that the king can't let go of his face, and he is actually afraid in his heart.

Otherwise, there will be no excuse to leave.

After the minister left, Tang Seng and his entourage sat together to discuss countermeasures.

After talking for a while, Gu Ming said: "You can't blame the king for this matter, if he doesn't take some tough measures, he may really destroy the country if he destroys France."

It's just that his method is a bit radical.

Now, we have to find a way to make him realize his mistake, and at the same time we have to avoid repeating the mistakes of France. ”

"Hmm~" Tang Seng nodded thoughtfully.

In fact, it is very simple to change the status quo of the destruction of France, after all, there are homework to be copied in the Central Plains.

The extermination of France has only a population of tens of thousands, and it will be easier to carry it out.

Of course, the king cannot be spared.

After all, that guy is a little too arrogant, and he even wants to kill Gu Ming and the others today, how can he not give him a little punishment?

Early the next morning.

The queen awoke from her sleep.

"Ah~"

Then, a piercing scream came from the dormitory.

"Bang~"

Then there was another dull sound.

The queen was startled, and she didn't know where she got the strength, so she kicked a bald monk lying on the bed out of bed.

"Oops~"

The "monk" screamed in pain.

When she heard that the voice was wrong, the queen's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "The king...... Your Majesty? You...... How do you ......"

At the same moment, the king also pointed at the queen as if he had seen a ghost, and stammered: "Queen, you ...... Your hair ......"

As soon as she said this, the queen suddenly felt a cold swish on the top of her head, and raised her hand to touch it......

"Ah~"

Another piercing scream.

"There are assassins!"

The guards in charge of the guard didn't care about anything, and rushed in one after another......

Although the king's dormitory cannot be trespassed, the situation is critical now, so naturally it cannot be restrained.

As a result, a group of guards entered the house and couldn't help but be stunned one by one.

Because the king and queen are bald.

In fact, at this time, not only the king and queen, but also several of the king's concubines, as well as a pair of children, also became bald.

Although it was possible to wear a headscarf or a hat to cover it, it had spread throughout the palace, and everything was said.

Many guards and palace maids passed down the rumors, saying that the king had killed too many monks, and finally suffered retribution, and the family became monks......

Although it is discussed in private, it is inevitable that some rumors will reach the ears of the king and queen.

The couple did not dare to leave the dormitory, and they were as anxious as ants in the hot nest.

"Your Majesty, this ...... How good is that? ”

The queen could not help but whimper and weep.

The king kept sighing, and vaguely guessed in his heart that what retribution was afraid of being fake, most of it was related to a few monks from the Tang Dynasty.

After all, he saw the supernatural powers of Tang Seng and others with his own eyes, and he was not an ordinary person at all.

Since he can't fight, he can only give in......
