The one hundred and sixth round: The Great War is imminent
said that in the magic hall of the demon house, the four brothers of the demon family had a heated discussion about the murder of Wukong......
"What, transfer us back to Heavenly Court?Fourth, what you think is too beautiful, right?!" After listening to Mo Lishou's impassioned remarks, Mo Lihai's fingers that were twisting his white beard suddenly stopped, "You said that the Jade Emperor and the Heavenly King agreed with us to kill the Splash Monkey, this sounds right! But think about it carefully, since they agreed to our suggestion, then why can't they issue a clear decree like they did five hundred years ago, let us publicly kill the Splash Monkey......
At this point, Mo Lihai groaned slightly, and glanced at everyone a little proudly.
"Why? You say why?" Mo Liqing suddenly became impatient, glaring at Mo Lihai and shouted.
"Big brother, don't worry! According to the younger brother, the reason why the Jade Emperor and the Heavenly King did not say it explicitly is nothing more than ...... fear of the West" Mo Lihai rolled his eyes and said in a low voice: "Brothers, imagine that the monkey head was originally a sinful body under the Five Elements Mountain, and now the reason why he can be reincarnated is entirely due to the great help of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the person behind Guanyin must be the Buddha." In this way, if we slaughter the monkey's head, we will definitely offend the Western world! When the Bodhisattva descends on the disaster, if the Bodhisattva comes to ask for the sin, can you expect the Jade Emperor and the Heavenly King, who secretly rejoice, to tear their faces with the saints of the West for the sake of our brothers? The answer, of course, is no! Therefore, we still need to consider the matter of robbing and killing the monkey's head in the long run. ”
"What a long-term plan! Third brother, according to what you said, can we only watch the monkey head go west in a big way?" Mo Li Shou said in a hurry: "That giant spirit god can understand that as long as the monkey head finds a good person who cultivates in the tenth life, he will be able to rescue his incorruptible true body from the foot of the Five Elements Mountain! At that time, the monkey head has recovered his mana, and according to his personality of retribution, if we don't go to him, he will also find us to seek revenge!" Brothers, don't forget, five hundred years ago, after Rulai subdued the monkey's head, we were invited by the giant spirit god, and in order to vent our personal anger, we went to Huaguo Mountain again and killed his monkey grandson in a hole......"
"Yes, yes, yes, we have an inextricable feud with that monkey head, and if we return to the mountains now, we will suffer from it in the future...... But then again, if you kill the monkey head now, you will anger the Bodhisattva again, and you will provoke the Nyorai, and then there will be no good fruit to eat! Alas, this and this...... This is called a rat bogey, you can't advance or retreat, how can you let the slave family be good?" Mo Lihong had nothing to do, his face was full of sadness, and he unconsciously played the pipa again, and learned the tone of the excellent person to read it in white......
"Second brother, the brothers are discussing a big matter, don't make a mess, okay?"
"Okay, okay, don't worry, brothers, don't worry! Since the Heavenly King doesn't call the shots for us, then we will be our own masters!" Mo Liqing waved his hand at the brothers, and said viciously: "That monkey head and I are on the same level, and we don't share the sky, so we have to kill him! It's just that in order to protect ourselves, we still need to find a proper excuse to kill......
"Excuse, big brother, the excuse is ready-made!" Mo Lishou was overjoyed when he heard this: "Today, the junior brother just heard that the monkey head has accepted the invitation of Shurakshasa to help, and now lives in the post house of Rakshasa City. And now that the Rakshasa Kingdom is about to change, we just take advantage of the opportunity of the Rakshasa court to fight for power and seize the throne, and at the same time destroy the Shurakshasa and kill the monkey head gang together!"
"Okay! That's it!" Mo Liqing slapped his thigh and looked up to the sky and laughed, "If you slaughter the monkey under this pretext, even if the Buddha blames it in the future, we can also completely put the responsibility on the human king and landlord of the Rakshasa Kingdom!"
"Wonderful! Big brother's responsibility is wonderful!" "The slave family thinks so too!" Mo Lihai and Mo Lihong also jumped up.
"Squeak squeak......" Seeing the appearance of the masters' eyebrows fluttering, the flower fox marten in the arms of Mo Lishou also screamed!
For a while, the words of people and beasts converged together, so it was not lively......
"Knock...... Boom...... ......Suddenly, the melodious morning bell rang throughout the Demon Mansion, and the excited four brothers realized that the sky had brightened.
A ray of sunlight warmly shone into the Dharma hall through the gap in the east window, and the brothers stood up one after another, shaking their bodies and moving their muscles and bones.
Mo Lishou beckoned the little old Taoist to bring over a few basins of warm water, and the four brothers had closed their washing, and simply ate some snacks, and then went out of the magic house together.
After walking a few times in the garden of the Liang Mansion, seeing the three poles of the sun, Mo Lishou led a few brothers to visit the King of Liang.
King Liang, who had been waiting for a long time, received the four generals of the demon family in the study, and everyone first had a polite manner, and then had a detailed and careful discussion on the matter of seeking the country and seizing the throne on March 15.
At noon, King Liang specially ordered Xue Daya to prepare a sumptuous family banquet, and the master and servant pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and drank until the palm lamp was held before they dispersed.
On the second day, King Liang woke up from a dream and found that the hour had passed.
"Bastard, why didn't you wake up the lonely family earlier......" King Liang rubbed his sleepy eyes, scolded the maid, and hurriedly changed into court clothes, and then took the eight sedan chairs to really go to the palace.
Today, March 11, the last major court meeting on March 15 and before the ancestor worship ceremony of the Taimiao Temple, is specially set up to approve the ancestor worship matters.
Along the way, King Liang was anxious, and urged the sedan chair man to speed up his pace several times, and finally rushed to the palace at three o'clock and the court meeting began.
To King Liang's surprise, when he hurried through the gate of the Wu Dynasty and came to the main hall, he found that the emperor Yu Wenjian, who had not been in the court for a long time, was sitting on the dragon chair, staring ahead, with an expressionless face, while the hundred and ten civil and military officials standing on both sides were frowning and worried as usual.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live! The younger brother is lazy for a while, and the court is late, please long live the crime!" King Liang was surprised in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to bow three times and bow nine times!
"The royal brother is exempt from courtesy, and he will be seated on the side!" King Liang did not close his salute, and Yu Wenjian ordered the eunuch on duty to help him up.
"Thank you, Lord Longen, brother Xie!" King Liang raised his head and glanced at the emperor, and then sat down on an embroidered dragon pier in front of the grade platform.
"I think I'm tired! In the past few years, my health has been poor, and my brother has been managing the government on my behalf, and he has really worked hard!" Although Yu Wenjian said politely, and his face was full of smiles, when King Liang and the officials heard it, they always felt that some words were sharp.
"Long live don't have to be polite, it's just a matter of the minister's brother to share the worry for the lord!" King Liang sneered: "The minister brother heard that the day before yesterday, he invited a few miracle doctors to cure the queen's illness, I don't know if it's true or not?"
"Alas, the queen's illness has improved somewhat, but it is still far from healing!" Yu Wenjian sighed and said: "The few people Yue He is looking for are all some traveling doctors in the rivers and lakes, you must not believe it, and you can't believe it all! So I want to go to the Taimiao Temple on March 15 to worship my ancestors, and I will also go to Niangniang Palace to pray for the queen!"
"Long live the decision to go to the temple in person this year?" King Liang heard that he was in the middle of it, and his heart was full of joy for a while!
"Yes! In the past few years, the royal brother has worshiped my ancestors on my behalf, and I dreamed of the emperor the day before yesterday, and the emperor scolded me for being lazy, and I was deeply ashamed! And in recent days, my body has suddenly become much lighter, so I decided to personally lead the civil and military to the Taimiao, one in front of the ancestors and the ancestors in the heavens, reciting my mistakes in recent years, and then also showing the merits of the royal brother!" Yu Wenjian suddenly changed his previous self-righteous personality, and actually introspected himself in public with the dignity of the emperor, full of sincerity and sincere words, which really made all the officials present feel incredible.
"Brother Liang is willing to work with Wan Sui to pray for the blessing of my Rakshasa and the queen mother!" Seeing this, King Liang quickly stood up, dressed and solemn again, and fell to his knees.
"The ministers are also willing to follow Long Live and pray for my Rakshasa and the queen!"
Suddenly, the sound of everyone shouting together shook the hall and resounded throughout the imperial city......
None of the people in the bureau would have thought that Emperor Yu Wenjian and Liang Wang Yu Wenzai, who had been in tension and-for-tat for three years, tacitly co-directed a warm and unique court meeting on the eve of the tense decisive battle.
What's even more shocking is that after the court meeting, King Liang actually found out in his conscience that all the soldiers besieging the palace, Taimiao and Niangniang Palace were withdrawn within one day.
came and did not be rude, for King Liang's overtures, the emperor was not far behind, and directly brushed a holy decree, ordering Yue He to go to the Liang Mansion and crown King Liang as the regent 9,000 years old.
After King Liang received the order, he repeatedly asked for his resignation, but the emperor did not allow it. The two gentlemen and ministers were polite and courteous to each other, as if they had suddenly returned to the childhood of little and no more and deep brotherhood.
But the good times are always fleeting, and this brotherhood that seems to be thicker than water disappears after only a few days......
When the morning sun on March 15 shone through the earth, the surface of the dark tide of the surging Rakshasa City fell into a state of jubilation, and thousands of people from all over the world poured into the city from all directions, and came straight to the Taimiao.
Although yesterday I received the order of "participating in the ancestor worship ceremony with the holy car", although the Shurakshasa and Wukong came out early this morning, and although the post house was not too far away from the Taimiao, everyone still took a lot of effort to squeeze in front of the gate of the Taimiao.
"Long live the drive, everyone dodge!" With a long shout of eunuchs, drums and firecrackers, the people suddenly flashed out of a narrow aisle.
Looking down the aisle, but under a Yunluo umbrella surrounded by dozens of court guards in bright armor, the refreshed and dragon-robed emperor Yu Wenjian was walking lightly while waving to the people, and the civil and military officials who followed him were also nodding to the surrounding crowd......
"Long live, long live, long live...... For a while, the sound of the people shouting and tsunami shook the heavens and the earth, and the Shurakshasa who was in it suddenly had an ominous premonition: I remember that decades ago, when I killed the evil dragon by the mirror pool and saved the emperor, all the people seemed to be like this to the emperor......
