Chapter 18: Civil Strife in Qin
Emperor Yao Xing of the Qin State believed in Buddhism and built monasteries in the country to promote Buddhism. Yao Xing invited the high monk Kumarosh to Chang'an, set up a Xiaoyao Garden, and respectfully invited the master to translate the scriptures, and more than 800 teachers participated in assisting in the translation of the scriptures, and he himself participated in the translation of the scriptures!
On this day, all of us were invited by Yao Xing to listen to the master's teachings in the Xiaoyao Garden, Kumarosh was respected as the national teacher, and was sitting on the Buddhist altar in the middle to preach the scriptures, the emperor Yao Xing was on the top, and the others were sitting on both sides. Under the smoke, Yao Xing was drowsy, and he reclined on the seat as if he hadn't coughed occasionally.
The internal officials waiting next to him whispered from time to time, and some ministers exchanged words: "I heard that the emperor is critically ill, so I came here to ask the master to try to give a lecture, I don't know if it's true or not." ”
I saw that Yao Xing suddenly coughed violently, and finally spit out a mouthful of blood, fainted, and several attendants around the emperor immediately carried the emperor to the inner hall. Everyone was shocked and in an uproar, but only Master Kuma was chanting words in the hall, and his tone gradually became urgent. Everyone gradually calmed down amid the sound of the master's chanting, and only a few ministers were impatient to break into the inner hall to check the emperor's safety.
Someone said: "I'm afraid the emperor won't be able to survive today!" ”
If there is really such a coincidence, we have just arrived, and this monarch of the Qin State is about to hang? I glanced at each other, and he said, "There must be fraud in this, let's wait and see what happens!" ”
When his father Yao Chang died, Yao Xing was stunned to hide the news of his father's death and mourn a year later. It can be seen that the young man is thoughtful and patient!
The sky gradually darkened, and the sound of crying faintly came from the inner hall. Candles have been lit in the hall, and the dim candlelight is accompanied by the sound of the mage's chanting, the atmosphere is particularly gloomy, coupled with the faint sound of crying, which makes people feel particularly strange and sad.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of neat, powerful and rapid footsteps outside, and the movement of weapons unsheathed. With their eyes closed in this dim environment, those who practice martial arts can immediately hear that they are surrounded by a group of people with weapons. Apparently I heard the sound too, and I subconsciously pulled out my weapon, and I held my hand down, signaling me not to act rashly!
Suddenly, after a "boom" sound, the gate was broken, and a tall and powerful man in a battle robe led everyone into with a long sword!
"Lord Wang, you broke into the Xiaoyao Garden with a weapon, you can know the capital crime!" A minister in the hall pointed at the man and said angrily!
"Good Yin Wei, as an auxiliary general, the emperor died, you actually hid and didn't report it, what is your intention, is it possible that you want to usurp the throne and seize power?" The man who was called the prince said.
"What a Yao Chong, not to mention that the emperor is healthy now, even if something happens to the emperor one day, he has his own prince and the country, so you don't have to worry about it! Don't quit yet! ”
"Haha, the crown prince is four years old, how can he inherit the throne of my Great Qin?"
"Presumptuous! It is only natural for the crown prince to inherit the throne, how can you wait here to make a big fuss! ”
"My Great Qin has always been a capable person, and my nephew is young, and my brother is also interested in me, and he has long intended to pass on the throne to me!"
"What credentials do you have?"
"Haha, then I'm afraid that General Lao Fuguo will have to go to the underworld and ask my brother in person! Come on, kill! Not a single one to stay! Including this bald ass! ”
At this time, a team of elite soldiers ran out of the back hall, and Yao Chong's men and horses instantly fought, and the ministers in the hall were so frightened that they hugged their heads and ran away, I looked at the continuator, "Who do we help?" I asked him. If we don't choose a good team at this time, I'm afraid there will be no place to die.
After pondering for a moment, he shouted: "Bold Yao Chong, seeking to seize the throne, the name is not right, let me ask someone to solve the emperor's worries today!" As he spoke, he drew his sword and stabbed at that Yao Chong! I followed, drawing my scimitar and fighting the rebels. For a while, the shouts of killing continued! Only the mage kept saying the words there, as if all these fights and killings had nothing to do with him.
The two sides were evenly matched, and suddenly a large number of horses and horses came from outside, surrounding the place. "Uncle Huang?" I saw Yao Chong shouting. "You're going to take the opportunity to take the throne too?" I saw that the person known as the imperial uncle didn't say a word, just looked at him quietly.
At this moment, someone came out of the inner hall. This time, he didn't even use someone to support him, this person was Yao Xing!
Yao Chong was dumbfounded: "It's not that you have ......"
"Say I'm dead, right?" Yao Xing said word by word.
"Are you planting eyeliner next to me just to see when I'm going to die? Brother? ”
"It turned out to be a lie to me...... Hmph...... "This Yao Chong is like a deflated balloon." But then he ran outside and knelt in front of his imperial uncle: "Uncle Huang, my nephew has always respected your outstanding talents, which point is not comparable to him in military affairs or governance?" He pointed at Yao Xing.
"Today, it's better for us to kill him, and obey you as holy, and my nephew will be loyal to you!" Yao Chong's eyes were blood-red, and he pinned his last shred of hope on his imperial uncle.
"Humph! This king has never thought of such a separation, not in the past, and not in the future! You'd better die of this heart! ”
"So, you're here to escort King Qin today?" Yao Chong sat paralyzed on the ground, and the soldiers he brought with him also threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.
"You have not repented at this point!" The auxiliary general Yin Wei said.
"Haha!" Yao Chong suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Yin Wei, you villain! You, a Han Chinese, who are qualified to speak of me here? If it weren't for you, how could I be here! You are a Han Chinese, but my brother just listens to you, he reuses Han people as officials, what kind of ethnic equality policy does he want, and formulates a system that is beneficial to the Han people, but what about our people? I, the prince, was forced to give up military power, but I am his own brother! Hahahaha! Yao Chong smiled sadly.
"I have been tolerant of you again and again, you have gathered troops in the mansion, gathered party henchmen, and first plotted to kill the prince, but to no avail; You plan to kidnap me while I'm in good health.,Force me to give way.,Unbeknownst to me, I'm nipped in the bud.。。 Again and again, I tolerate you and forgive you just because you are my own brother. But you still do not repent. I thought that when I died, I would seek the throne. I have done my duty to you! For the sake of the country's long-term sake, I had to ......"
"Brother Huang, my brother knows that he is wrong, please, please let me go." Yao Chong fell to his knees and begged for mercy like a pug.
Yao Xing couldn't bear to look at him for a long time: "Come on, pull it down......"
Before he could finish speaking, Yao Chonggou jumped off the wall in a hurry, and actually picked up a sharp knife on the ground and stabbed Yao Xing. said that it was too late, and then it was fast, only to see that Yu Zong threw out the Xingyue Sword, which happened to hit the sharp knife in Yao Chong's hand. The guards next to Yao Xing immediately stepped forward to subdue him.
"No mercy!" Yao Xing said categorically.
"I intended to let you go, I just wanted to confine you to the mansion, but you didn't repent......"
The guards escorted Yao Chong out.
At this time, the national teacher who was reciting the scriptures stopped chanting: "The emperor is merciful, taking into account the affection of flesh and blood, but Brother Ling, the resentment is too deep, irretrievable, good and good!" ”
Yao Xing's eyes were full of sadness, he turned around and bowed to the national teacher, and said to him: "The King of Shu is smiling, I am really ashamed to let you see the ugly things in our family!" Thank you for saving your life! You and I will be allies of each other in the future, and we will never turn our backs! ”
"The emperor is polite, we as courtiers should protect you!" Hold your fists.
This turmoil of seizure of power finally ended with the beheading of Yao Chong, the king of Qi.
I can't help but sigh, this body in the royal family, when the real body can't help himself, although they are close relatives, but they kill each other, this may be the sorrow of the royal family since ancient times!
