Chapter 192: Temple of Heaven Ancestor Worship 5

Xiao Ziliang cared about his statement, but Xiao Zijing didn't care: "Second brother, if you are going to save the Dharma Body, why do you stay in Lu Liang and don't move forward?" ”

"Fifth brother, it's strange in the trough, it's not that the king didn't send people in, but the people who sent it out haven't returned, and they must have been eaten by that monster. How can you look at your second brother like this? ”

"Did you send someone to the rescue, or did you go to find out the situation and want to take the opportunity to kill the Dharma Body? If you went to the rescue, why did you tie up the princess again when you saw the princess of Nanjun? ”

"Fifth brother, don't spew blood! Could it be that you were also confused by that demon girl? When this king saw that only the princess of Nanjun walked out of the trough but did not see the Dharma body, this king was just strange in his heart, and asked the princess of Nanjun to take this king to find the Dharma body! ”

"Second brother, you and I have been fighting a belly lawsuit for a long time. I asked myself if I couldn't win you, now I just want to tell the truth, if the second brother wants to quibble, he can wait until I finish talking and slowly quibble. ”

"You!" Xiao Zi is good-spirited. They came back from the manger, and only picked up some simple things to tell the emperor about the manger, after all, it was a fratricidal matter, so it was better not to quarrel with the saint. What's more, Xiao Lian didn't want to mention the Yin Soldier more, so everyone tacitly revealed this matter. But now that Xiao Zijing said it directly on such an occasion, there is really no room for maneuver at all.

No matter how angry Xiao Ziliang was, Xiao Zijing was expressionless. In other words, Xiao Zijing's expression was a little relieved. Xiao Zijing continued: "Father, I saw that the second brother was going to be unfavorable to the princess of Nanjun, so I went to the rescue, and at this moment, we heard the roar of the monster coming from the manger. The roar was indeed terrifying, and the valley we were in was not far from the trough, so we hurriedly retreated to Lu Liang. Unexpectedly, before we arrived in Lu Liang, we met the seventh brother and led the troops to block us in the valley. The seventh brother also attacked us in the valley, and most of the second brother's soldiers died at the hands of the seventh brother. ”

The more the emperor listened, the more ugly his face became: "Yunyun, what you said is true?" Why haven't I heard you say it before? ”

Xiao Zijing lifted his clothes and knelt down, and said loudly: "Because the retainer is selfish." ”

"What selfishness?"

"Because of the competition between Erchen and the second brother, I can't let go of those fame and fortune. The sons also cared about the feelings of brotherhood and couldn't bear to be sad for their father. ”

"Then how are you not afraid of me being sad now?"

"Because the son is wrong. Erchen can't make mistakes again and again. Erchen does not want to be an unfaithful and unrighteous person, and he does not want to be a sinner of Daqi. There are young people who want to harm my Xiao clan relatives in front of the ancestors and ancestors, but now the sons dare not hide it anymore. At that time, it was the seventh brother who killed him, and there were too many deaths, and the smell of blood lured the monster out. That monster is too ferocious for our soldiers to match at all, and only the princess of Nanjun is not disturbed by monsters. It was the princess of Nanjun who used her own blood to force back the monster, and ordered people to break the cliffs on both sides of the valley, and risked being buried alive to save the soldiers of our army. ”

Wang Jing saw that Xiao Zijing told the whole truth, and quickly pretended to be extremely angry: "There is such a thing!" It turned out that King Jingling was injured and had another hidden secret. How can you hide such an important matter for the sake of brotherhood? ”

Xiao Ziliang knelt at the emperor's feet, tears in his eyes: "Father, you know, I have had a deep relationship with my seventh brother since I was a child, and after the incident that day, although I was sad, I still couldn't bear to see my seventh brother convicted." What's more, the seventh brother fled Jiangzhou and was guilty of resisting the order, if he wanted to be punished, he could also be punished. The minister concealed this matter from his father, and the son knew that he was wrong, but the fifth brother said that he wanted to kill the Dharma Body, and the son never did it. Erchen had just met Princess Nanjun and hadn't asked for the news of the Dharma Body when he heard the cry of the monster. Erchen was indeed frightened by the monster's voice, and what happened next, Erchen only remembered that he was running for his life, and he didn't remember anything else. ”

Wang Jing echoed: "Your Majesty, although the minister has not personally experienced the battle of the horse manger, but the minister has been fighting all year round and has participated in many battles. It's not a lie, it's that everyone sees and hears things differently. However, from King Anlu's words, the minister heard a little, King Anlu said that the monster injured a lot of soldiers of our army, but did not hurt the princess of Nanjun, so the demon girl said that it was not a lie. ”

"Wang Sikong, don't misinterpret the meaning of this king." Xiao Zijing said sharply: "Although this king doesn't know why that monster doesn't hurt the princess, that monster is definitely not the monster that Wang Sikong said, so the princess of Nanjun is definitely not a demon girl, and Yulong is even more nonsense." ”

"King Anlu, why are you so sure? What is the monster that the Anxi Army can't defeat yet, if it's not a demon? The soldiers under the command of King Jingling also saw it, the monster was in the form of a dragon, since King An Lu wanted to tell the truth, why did he lie? ”

Xiao Zijing looked up at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the retainer didn't lie. Xiao Zijing took out a piece of something like a black shell from his arms: "Erchen took a detour to Lu Liang before returning to Beijing, and found this thing in the place where we once encountered monsters. There was a book in the Han Dynasty that recorded, 'Dragon, the length of the scale insect, can be dark and bright, can be small and huge, can be short and long, ascend to the sky at the spring equinox, and approach the abyss at the autumn equinox'. Please take a closer look at the emperor, this thing is definitely not a dragon scale, this is the scale of a four-legged snake. ”

"He Yin, come up and take a look."

He Yin said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the ministers need to avoid suspicion in this matter." The minister also went to Lu Liang, but the minister arrived late to Lu Liang at that time and didn't see it. Since the minister is in this matter, he is afraid that some people will not believe what he says. Zhu Gonggong is familiar with the classics, learns five cars, discusses learning, and the ministers often ask Zhu Gonggong to solve his doubts, and the emperor can let Zhu Gonggong understand. ”

Zhu Shou was flattered, and hurriedly said modestly: "Lord Sacrificial Wine has tormented the old slave." “

The emperor picked up the scales and looked at them in the sun, the pure black scales did not steal any light in the sun, and they were very hard. "Zhu Shou, come and have a look."

"Yes." Zhu Shou respectfully took the scales, looked at them carefully, and said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty, Xunzi once said, 'The dragon is a dragonfly, and the owl is a phoenix'. In this way, the dragon and the four-legged snake were originally the same clan. However, the old slave thought that the reason why the dragon was a dragon, not a four-legged snake, must have its own advantages to ordinary things. The dragon is something close to the gods, if this is a dragon scale, Lao Chen thinks it is too ordinary, it seems that it is just a little bigger. ”

The emperor looked at Wang Jingze and said in a deep voice: "Wang Sikong, what do you say." ”

What else can Wang Jingze say? Zhu Shou said this as if everyone was not offended, but he said it cleverly. said that the dragon and the four-legged snake were originally of the same clan, and said that this scale was very ordinary, how could he insist that this Lu Liang's monster was a dragon at this time? That doesn't mean that dragons are nothing more than mundane things. He didn't dare to say how many heads he had to say.

Wang Jingze, as an old fox, was not panicked at all: "The old minister has not seen it with his own eyes, and he has also listened to the rumors. It's just that the stakes are very high, and the old minister must ask clearly. ”

The emperor was too lazy to say more to Wang Jingze, turned his head to look at Xiao Ziliang and asked, "In Lu Liang, is it the hand of Lao Qi?" ”

The tears on Xiao Ziliang's face have not dried, when will he not shake the pot at this time? Hurriedly pulled the placket of the emperor's clothes and said: "Father, the seventh brother is fascinated for a while, so you can spare him." "In front of Xiao Zimao's cruelty to his siblings, the fact that he wanted to kidnap He Jingying was insignificant.

The emperor took back his shirt and looked at Xiao Zijing coldly: "What are you doing in Luliang?" ”

Xiao Zijing said calmly: "In order to get the evidence that the second brother harmed the Fa Body, I would like to refer to the previous one." ”

"Okay, it's really my good son, all of them are good sons." The emperor looked back at Xiao Zimao who was like an old monk on the side with a gloomy face, and his heart became more and more angry, if it wasn't for this son messing around, could he lose Xiao's face in front of hundreds of officials? The emperor stepped forward a few steps and kicked Xiao Zimao down the steps.

The ministers originally had ghosts, and Xiao Ziliang lost power, and many ministers were implicated. Xiao Lian knelt in front of the palace and collected the hearts of the old ministers who originally supported the first prince. Xiao Zimao cooperated with Wang Jingze this time, and it was this abacus that drew salaries from the bottom of the kettle. If the emperor wants to kill He Jingying, Xiao Lian will definitely stop it, and the Xidi party will try their best to take this opportunity to pull Xiao Lian off the horse in one fell swoop.

For Xiao Zimao, he had no choice when Wang Jingze proposed this plan. Either be a prisoner for a lifetime, be a prince of Jiangzhou for a lifetime, or cooperate with Xiao Ziliang this time to lay the foundation for his return to the court. didn't expect that he and Wang Jingze's practice of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle, before the firewood was taken away, they first knocked over the pot, poured hot water, and roasted themselves on the fire.

The emperor kicked Xiao Zimao off the altar, still angry, when he remembered that this bear child not only made the Xiao family lose face, but also pretended to be his own Lao Tzu, he was even more angry, and stomped on Xiao Zimao's face fiercely. Xiao Zimao's face suddenly became swollen, and blood fell from the corners of his mouth.

In a fit of rage, the emperor pulled out his sword from the guards and raised it high, thinking that he would immediately end up with this bear child.

Up and down this altar, where is there anyone who is willing to save Xiao Zimao. Only Pei Wanxi, who was standing on the side of the female dependent, stumbled out of the crowd, blocked in front of Xiao Zimao, and protected Xiao Zimao: "Your Majesty, please spare your life." The prince is at fault, but he is your son, and he is doing this for you. ”

"For me?" The emperor laughed angrily: "Is that still my mistake?" ”

Pei Wanxi knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, he is your son, he admires you, he wants to do something, if the emperor is not because of this, he will not make a mistake." ”

Xiao Zimao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "No need to say it again, if it's wrong, it's wrong, I'll go to my mother!" ”

At the mention of Empress Wu Mu, the killing intent in the emperor's eyes finally faded.

Pei Wanxi hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, you can't say that, the queen mother must also hope that you can accompany the emperor well." ”

Sure enough, as soon as Pei Wanxi said this, the emperor's heart softened. The first prince has passed away, and now only Xiao Zimao is left. The emperor's killing intent went, but his anger did not disappear, and he pointed at Xiao Zimao and scolded: "You get out of here!" I don't want to see you again! In the future, I will not allow you to step out of Jiangzhou, and you will never be allowed to return to Beijing! ”

Zhu Shou trembled and held the emperor, and hurriedly glanced at Pei Wanxi and Xiao Zimao. Pei Wanxi hurriedly helped Xiao Zimao up and retreated.

He Jingying sneered in her heart, after so much effort, she was still imprisoned in Jiangzhou.

After Xiao Zimao left, the emperor looked back at Xiao Ziliang, and his anger did not subside: "And you!" Those good deeds! You can do it to your own nephew! ”

Xiao Ziliang said in a panic: "Your Majesty, Erchen is wronged, Erchen is really going to save the Dharma Body." ”

Xiao Lian said coldly to Xiao Ziliang: "Second uncle, in this way, do I still owe the second uncle a favor?" ”

Xiao Ziliang hurriedly said to Xiao Lian: "Law Body, don't listen to the villain's nonsense. ”

"Uncle Erwang said and laughed, his eyes are on me, what I see can be fake?"

"That's enough." The emperor stared at Xiao Ziliang coldly: "It's not enough to be ashamed?" Stand up! ”

Xiao Zimao had been taken away by the guards, but the sacrifice was only halfway through. The emperor looked angry, as if the farce had never happened. It's just that the ministers standing at the end of the ministers can feel that the emperor at this time is more terrifying than ever, even if he stands in a place where the emperor can't see, he doesn't dare to breathe heavily.

The emperor instructed: "Yun Chang, you come to replace Yunchang's position." ”

Yan Zhili almost fainted, and reached out and kept pinching his leg, pinching one leg to bruise, so that he could keep himself awake. In the next ritual, although he memorized the lines he should speak, he no longer had the momentum of the sound like a bell, and his breath was dying. But at this time, no one cared about his dereliction of duty. An ancestor worship ceremony that had been arranged for several days by Yan Zhili ended hastily.
