Xiao Ziliang choked on the word "good" in his throat, looking at Yuan Jinying who ran too quickly, and fell into the mud because he was unstable. She was helped up by Xiao Zhaoxuan, ignoring the sludge on her body, and ran towards him again.

"Yunying, don't be wrong again and again, please, think about me and the child."

Xiao Ziliang looked at this dignified wife, who was covered with mud, and couldn't bear it.

He owes Yuan Jinying a lot. Yuan Jinying has always been the princess of King Jingling for him and gave birth to Xiao Zhaoxuan for him. In fact, since he met Wang Rong, he and Yuan Jinying have no husband and wife, and Yuan Jinying has always been a fig leaf for him. But Yuan Jinying never complained, so he felt even more indebted in his heart.

Just when he hesitated, couldn't bear it, and retreated, a scene that shocked him even more appeared.

Behind Yuan Jinying and Xiao Zhaoxuan, Xiao Luan led the troops to follow them and rode horses, and He Yin rode behind Xiao Luan. Xiao Luan did not have many soldiers, and if he talked about the soldiers alone, Xiao Ziliang and Wang Rong would not pay attention to them at all. But with Xiao Luan, these soldiers and horses came with all the officials in the capital! A group of people swept around, looking at the black pressure from a distance, Xiao Ziliang's scalp was numb.

Wang Rong gritted his teeth and said, "He Ziji! ”

Wang Rong only said that the soldiers outside the city couldn't come in, but he didn't expect He Yin to go outside the city to ask for reinforcements at all, but knocked on the mansions of all the courtiers in the capital one by one in the middle of the night and pulled them out of the bed.

What's even worse is that after He Yin gathered all the courtiers, he also knocked on Wang Jingze's door. Now Wang Jing is walking at the head of everyone with an iron face.

Wang Rong got into trouble, and Wang Jing didn't know how, but the hundred officials stood at his door, he couldn't kill them all. Now he can only walk in the front without saying a word, and his face is so gloomy that he can wring out water. When he saw the emperor standing in front of Zhengyang Gate and looking at the world proudly, he knew that the general trend had gone.

Baiguan didn't know what was going on when he was brought by He Yin. When I got closer, I saw the tension outside Zhengyang Gate, Wang Rong and Xiao Ziliang confronting the emperor, and I was shocked in my heart.

"Lord Jingling, Wang Yuanchang, what are you doing here?!"

"King Jingling, you are leading troops to force the palace, are you going to rebel?!"

"King Jingling, your wolf ambition finally can't be held back today!"

The insults swallowed Xiao Ziliang like a tide.

The general trend has gone, and I can only abandon the pawn to protect the car.

Wang Jing straightened up his clothes and shouted angrily: "Yuan Chang! What are you doing here? My Wang family has been heroic for generations, how did you give birth to such a chaotic thief! ”

Wang Rong's eyes were slightly red, staring at Xiao Ziliang.

If it was only Xiao Luan and He Yin who came, they could still fight to the death, but it was a hundred officials who came, what could they do? You can't slaughter all the officials.

If the emperor falls in the Flower Shifting Pavilion as expected, or falls unconscious, he can still use his three-inch incorruptible tongue to convince the officials that the prince wants to do wrong. But now that the emperor is standing here in a good manner, what can he do?

Wang Rong's 3,000 soldiers behind him all threw their blades on the ground and knelt down.

What frightened Wang Rong even more was that he saw He Jingying slowly walking out of the Yulin Army behind the emperor, carrying a delicate woman in her hand, who was Mrs. Mei.

If Mrs. Mei speaks, the Wang family will be finished.

Wang Rong looked back at Xiao Ziliang and choked up: "Yunying, you mistook me!" ”

With that, Wang Rong stood up suddenly, raised his sword and threw himself at He Jingying.

"Be careful!" Xiao Zhaoye's face turned pale, and he watched Wang Rong pounce in front of He Jingying with his sword.

Just when Wang Rong's sword was about to penetrate He Jingying's body, a monk in Tsing Yi was killed in an oblique stab and took Wang Rong's throat directly. Wang Rong's original target was not He Jingying, his body was tilted, the tip of the sword was deviated by three inches, and he took the sword of the monk in Tsing Yi with his left shoulder, and took advantage of the situation to penetrate his sword through Mrs. Mei's chest.

The dead cannot speak, and the rest is left to him.

Xiao Lian's expression was cold, his eyes were cold, and the sword in his hand ran through Wang Rong's shoulder.

Wang Rong endured the severe pain, pulled his left shoulder out of the sword, and retreated to Xiao Ziliang's side in a few steps.

Xiao Zi's conscience ached, and he helped Wang Rong: "Yuan Chang! ”

Who knew that Wang Rong turned around and pierced the sword in his hand into Xiao Ziliang's body. Xiao Ziliang looked at the sword pierced into his body in shock. It didn't hurt the heart, but it ran through his body, and it looked terrifying. "Yuan Chang?"

Wang Rong allowed him to speak, pushed the sword in a few more points, and smiled sarcastically to reveal his blood-stained white teeth: "Xiao Ziliang! As long as you are obedient, you can be a puppet emperor! It was my Wang Rong who miscalculated and let your son escape! ”

What puppet emperor?

What son escaped?

Xiao Ziliang's brain was buzzing.

Wang Rong pulled his sword out of Xiao Ziliang's body and roared angrily: "I, Wang Rong, have passed through the talents of heaven and earth, but I have succumbed to you as the king of Jingling, and this world should have given way to the sage!" ”

Wang Jing was furious and shouted: "Wang Yuanchang! Are you crazy! ”

Wang Rong laughed three times: "I'm crazy!" Wang Jingze, you old horseman! If you would listen to me, I would have done it! I've done so much for the royal family! Why don't you thank me! ”

"Wang Yuanchang! My Wang family has been loyal and good for generations, how can you slander the innocence of my Wang family! ”

Wang Rong slammed his sword on the ground: "I, Wang Rong, stand up to the sky and the earth, and do things by one person!" Old horseman, you are cowardly, it doesn't mean that I, Wang Rong, am cowardly! I, Wang Rong, disdain to be in the company of cowards such as you! ”

After that, Wang Rong glanced at Xiao Ziliang deeply: "Xiao Ziliang misunderstood me!" ”

After speaking, the sword that killed Mrs. Mei and injured Xiao Ziliang deeply pierced Wang Rong's heart.

Xiao Zhaoye's face was gloomy, did Wang Rong want to take all the blame on himself with just a few words, so that the Wang family and Xiao Ziliang could get rid of their crimes?

Xiao Zhaoye said coldly: "Wang Sikong doesn't have anything to say?" ”

Wang Jing glanced at Xiao Zhaoye calmly and walked out of the crowd. He pulled out his sword from Wang Rong's heart. Kneeling in front of the emperor, he raised his sword high with both hands.

"Your Majesty, Wang Rong's ministers really don't know about this. But Wang Rong is a descendant of my Wang family, and the old minister is the head of the Wang family, and the old minister cannot escape the responsibility. The Wang family's crimes are unforgivable, and they ask the emperor to surrender their crimes. ”

A sneer appeared at the corner of Xiao Zhaoye's mouth, and it just went down?

The emperor looked at Wang Jingze and did not speak, nor did he pick up the knife that Wang Jingze held above his head.

Wang Jing maintained the posture of holding a knife in one hand, and took out half a tiger talisman from his arms with the other hand and put it in front of him. "Your Majesty, the old minister has the emperor's trust, and it is difficult to take on a big responsibility. It's just that the descendants of my Wang family have been loyal to martyrs for generations, and I hope that the emperor will leave a clear name after the death of the old minister. ”

At this time, the emperor's indifferent face finally moved, and said coldly: "Wang Rong falsely sent the army to report his crimes, and since he has been punished, then expose the body for three days." ”

Xiao Zhaoye looked up at the emperor suddenly. Fake military newspapers? Isn't it a crime of rebellion?

Why did the emperor spare the Wang family? Didn't the emperor always want to get rid of the Wang family?

Xiao Zhaoye's gaze fell on Xiao Ziliang, who had already withered to the ground. Could it be that the emperor wants to use this method to protect Xiao Ziliang?

When Wang Jing heard the emperor say this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and knelt on the ground: "Thank you for the emperor's grace." ”

The emperor looked up at Xiao Luan and nodded, as if appreciative. The emperor's eyes swept over the civil and military officials present. The faces of these officials were fearful, fearful, submissive, and flattering. The emperor secretly felt a trace of disgust in his heart. I think that when he and Taizu pacified the world, it was such faces that were killed.

Compared with this face, even Wang Rong can be praised for his courage.

There was a feeling of desolation in the emperor's heart. He once thought that he would be a generation of Ming Jun, and he would kill all those flattering people with ill intentions, so that the real people with lofty ideals would stand in high positions. But when he became the king of God, he realized that things were not so simple at all, and he could not be a king if he killed one or two traitors.

The moonlight is bright, and he has not forgotten the innocence of his youth, but there is a mess in front of his palace.

After a while, he finally spoke: "After a hundred days, when the biography is located in Taisun, it will be ...... by Xiao Luan, Marquis of Xichang" His gaze fell on He Yin's face for a long time, and after his almost inaudible sigh, it finally fell on Xiao Ziliang: "Jointly assist Xiao Ziliang, the king of Jingling." ”

Under such circumstances, this emperor directly said the edict in front of the civil and military officials. All the officials were shocked, and they all fell to their knees.

Xiao Ziliang and Xiao Zhaoye were together, and they looked up at the emperor in front of them with the shouts of "The emperor has no borders".

None of them could fathom what the decisive emperor was thinking.

Xiao Ziliang was even more frightened, if he had been dead before, then now he was almost roasted on the fire.

Why did the emperor let him go. He plotted against such a big thing, and he didn't wash him in blood, even if he was in the palace, he even ordered him...... Auxiliary government?

He was puzzled, as if he had been hit by thunder.

What is even more resentful than Xiao Ziliang is Xiao Zhaoye, the emperor's edict is located in him, but Xiao Ziliang, who wants to take his life, is to assist the government? He didn't know what to look like on his face for a moment. He even forgot to look at the ground deferentially before kneeling down to the emperor. He looked at the emperor in a daze, his face full of unwillingness.

The emperor saw Xiao Zhaoye's question, and just looked at Xiao Zhaoye gently: "Law body, your own path, you have to go by yourself." ”

Xiao Zhaoye didn't understand what this sentence meant, but he couldn't ask it, so he could only tie a knot in his heart.

The emperor seemed to be extremely tired, and said to the hundred officials: "Go back if it's not early." ”

The emperor turned around lonely, and his eyes fell on Xiao Lian: "Monk, accompany me to have a glass of wine." ”

Xiao Lian glanced up at the emperor in a daze, and then obediently followed the emperor towards the depths of the palace.

The smell of wine wafted from the solemn palace. Xiao Chen strengthened the guards in the palace, so this pleasant smell of wine seemed out of place.

Xiao Lian stood aside with his hands down, and the emperor waved his hand to let him sit down. He didn't shirk either.

The emperor asked Zhu Shou to pour Xiao Lian a glass of wine and put it in front of Xiao Lian. Xiao Lian was suddenly a little embarrassed, and he wasn't sure whether to say, "Amitabha, monks are not allowed to drink", or drink this glass of wine in a good way.

The emperor didn't force him, poured himself a drink and said, "Monk, you don't have anything to ask me?" ”

Xiao Lian naturally knew what the emperor would say, and everything the emperor did tonight seemed like a mystery. Xiao Lian lowered his eyes: "The emperor is eloquent and strategic, benevolent and virtuous." ”

The emperor sneered: "Eloquence? Benevolence and courtesy? He seemed to chew on the words over and over again, and finally let himself laugh out loud.

Xiao Lian looked up at the emperor, this respectable emperor. After a hundred years of division between the north and the south and the chaos of the war in the first half of the year, almost the people were struggling to make a living. Although this emperor was not as good as Emperor Qin and Liu Bang, the king of Han, he failed to end this era of division. But in such an era of wars and turmoil, he can keep the people from being slaughtered by war for more than ten years, and be safe and prosperous. He is a wise and resolute ruler who cares about the people. But Xiao Lian couldn't tell him what these later generations would say about him.

The emperor laughed enough, looked up and asked Xiao Lian: "The person who saved me today is obviously He Yin, do you know why I didn't let him come to assist the government?" ”

Xiao Lian replied with kindness: "There must not be a second Wang family. ”

The emperor's unfathomable eyes had a moment of light: "You can understand." ”

The emperor smiled, and smiled with some relief. When he asked this question, he didn't think that Xiao Lian could reach it. He asked, only because he felt guilty.

The emperor seemed to have found a hint of fun: "What about Xiao Ziliang?" What do you think? ”

Xiao Lian saw a little lonely look in the emperor's eyes that went deep into the cold pool, and after being in the high place for a long time, he would naturally be soaked in the cold. Xiao Lian replied like a stream: "A prince who can calm the hearts of famous people in the world and pull out his minions, don't be afraid." ”

The emperor's eyes showed some appreciation, and he asked, "Then why didn't I destroy the Wang Rong Nine Clans?" ”

Xiao Lian replied: "At present, the country must not be chaotic. ”

The emperor pinched the wine glass, and there was regret and unwillingness in his expression: "Yes, half of the taxes in the treasury every year are paid by the Wang family, and if they move, they will also hurt the foundation of Daqi." The emperor's eyes fell on Xiao Lian: "If my descendants are as transparent as you, I won't have anything to worry about." ”

The emperor suddenly remembered something, and squinted slightly at Xiao Lian: "If you were Wang Rong, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sit here and drink today." “

Xiao Lian's heart froze, and the forced gaze from the emperor made his back cold. Xiao Lian lowered his eyes and said: "The poor monk is a monk. ”

"Monks?" The emperor sneered: "A monk who can commit murder? ”

Xiao Lian was so choked that he couldn't speak.

The emperor smiled a little narrowly: "Monk, you recite a passage of "Amitayus Sutra" to me. ”

Xiao Lian froze suddenly, and the blood all over his body was cold. He pretended to be a monk by mistake, but he was not prepared at all before.

The last time he crossed over, he wanted to take a history test, but he couldn't, so he went back to memorize it. As a result, this time he crossed over and told him that he was going to take the Buddhist scriptures? That's fucking hard, isn't it??

Xiao Lian is like a person who walks into the political examination room with a historical cheat sheet, and the whole person is a little embarrassed.

The emperor was amused by Xiao Lian's expression and laughed for a while, and finally let him go. He glanced at Xiao Lian incomprehensibly: "Monk, drink the wine." ”

After saying that, the emperor got up and walked outside the pavilion, and when he walked past Xiao Lian, the emperor paused: "Monk, at least memorize the "Dizang Bodhisattva Wish Sutra". I'll test you tomorrow. ”

After that, the emperor walked out, and when he went down the steps, the emperor covered his ribs with his hand: "Stinky monk, you can really do it." ”
