Chapter 231: The Fallen Emperor descends
"Don't you think that there are many less servants serving the tablet in this temple?" The red-clothed Chu Xiang stared at the prince with a calm face, and said coldly. "There are so many changes here, isn't the prince aware of it?"
How could Gongzi Pi not know about the changes in the Taimiao? It's just that the people inside had already been captured and killed by him, so how could he find them back and plug Chu Xiang's mouth?
"It's just some servants, my father is serious, whether it is to sacrifice to the ancestors to tell the heavens, or as soon as possible, there are priests serving people here, you can make sacrifices, or take this as the priority. ”
Childe said goodbye to the young priest who came in later. "There is Lao Xianqing, prepare a sacrifice for me. ”
"Yes. "The priest retreated, and the two prime ministers didn't say it anymore, so they just stood in the courtyard and waited for the priest to turn around.
After a while, the priest returned to the courtyard with a scroll of sacrificial speeches in his hand, and invited Gongzi Pi into the hall, and the ministers stood solemnly outside the main hall.
The temple was very quiet, except for the voice of Gongzi Pi, there was no sound, as the sacrificial speech was read, suddenly, there was a 'bang' sound of a heavy object falling to the ground in the inner hall, and then, it was the screams of several attendants inside.
The ministers waiting outside looked at each other, not daring to break in, and the two men on the left and right glanced at each other, and walked into the main hall.
There are more than 100 tablets enshrined in the main hall, and the two prime ministers have saluted, and if you look carefully, you can see Gongzi Pi paralyzed in the center of the main hall, and on the altar, the tablet of the Fallen Emperor fell down, and it was falling in the direction of Gongzi Pi!
"The first emperor! The first emperor has appeared! The first emperor has appeared!" The old man Chu Xiang burst into tears, bowed a few times to the tablet, and hissed. "Emperor Xian, if you are unwilling, don't send disasters to the people of Daliang!"
"The first emperor! The old minister is willing to drive for the first emperor, if the first emperor has a will, the old minister will obey the will! I also hope that the first emperor has a spirit, and don't make the Great Liang come down again!"
The two old prime ministers wept bitterly, but the young man with a white face on the side was a little more sober, he got up, knocked his head to the tablet a few times, glanced at the tablet with a suspicious face, and looked at the priest who was stunned in fright.
The young official was standing beside the altar, trembling at the toppled tablet, he was holding the white jade tablet in his hand, staring at the tablet, suddenly screamed, threw the tablet, turned around and ran.
Gongzi was about to reprimand the priest, when he suddenly heard a burst of human voices in this hall, the voice was fluttering, near and far, echoing in this hall, and people were terrified when they heard it.
The sunset and evening shined, a beam of sunlight broke into the hall, straight on the tablet of the Fallen Emperor, the prince saw this situation, frightened his teeth and trembled, almost fainted, he pricked up his ears to listen carefully to the voice, but the more he listened, the more it seemed that the Fallen Emperor was whispering.
"Pi, why did you harm me......"
"My son killed me, Pi, why did you harm me...... Return me to the throne...... Give me back my life......"
......
As the sunset sank into the sky, the voice became clearer and clearer, so that the two old prime ministers could hear it clearly, and it didn't take long for it to come out of the hall, and the ministers outside the hall also heard it clearly.
"The first emperor, the first emperor has appeared! Prince Pi! You! You dare to kill your father and seize the throne?!" Chu Xiang was furious, got up tremblingly, grabbed Gongzi Pi's collar, pointed to the tablet of the Emperor above and said angrily. "Crown Prince Bi! What the first emperor said, did you hear clearly? Did you kill the first emperor?"
"I ...... I ...... "Gongzi had the heart to argue, but the words of the fallen emperor just now, especially in his ears, where did he have the courage to lie? Just as he was spitting and spitting, he saw a piece of yellow silk floating down on the roof of the main hall, flipped and fell in front of the altar.
The right minister knelt down and crawled to the altar to pick up the yellow silk and looked at it, and he was so angry that he shook his hands and stretched out, and looked at Gongzi angrily. "You thief!
Gongzi raised his eyes and saw that on the three-foot square yellow silk, six blood-colored characters were dazzling.
'There is no way, kill your father!'
There was silence in the temple, outside the temple gate, the ministers of civil and military affairs were anxiously waiting outside the hall, not daring to enter, and the ears could hear the prime minister angrily reprimanding Gongzi Pi, everyone did not know why, and they did not know whether Gongzi Pi was killing his father and stealing the throne.
While everyone was waiting anxiously, they heard the sharp voice of the attendant behind them shout. "The queen has arrived!"
Hearing this shout, everyone fell silent, and they tacitly gave way to a passage and bowed down one after another. "See the Queen. ”
"No courtesy, come with me!" Empress Liang, who was wearing Xia clothes, strode towards the main hall with a solemn expression, and with the queen's approval, everyone followed behind Liang Hou according to the official rank, and climbed the white jade stone steps of the Taimiao.
As soon as they entered the main hall of the Taimiao, the first thing everyone saw was the tablet dumped by the Emperor of Liang, followed by the right phase with white hair and white hair holding the yellow silk blood book.
"Emperor Xian!" I don't know who was the first to wail and take the lead in bowing, and the ministers who followed up knelt on the ground, all crying bitterly, and bowed to the toppled tablet.
Liang Hou stood firmly in place, looked at the tablet for a while, her eyes were full of tears, she suddenly raised her steps, and walked slowly towards the tablet step by step.
Walking to the altar, Liang Hou reached out to help the tablet up, and said in a trembling voice. "Emperor Xian, the concubine is here, the concubine knows your grievances and unwillingness, knows your worries, you can rest assured, the concubine will never let you die in vain, and will definitely bring the person who harmed you to justice and redress your grievances!"
Straightened the tablet, Liang Hou covered his chest and took two steps back, lifted his clothes and bowed down, knelt three times and bowed nine times, bowed and worshipped, and the forbearance of the mourning moved the ministers.
"Queen!" Chu Xiang pushed his son, knelt on the ground and cried. "The first emperor appeared and reprimanded the prince for killing his father and usurping the throne, and asked the queen to make the decision, strictly investigate this matter, and definitely give a clear explanation to the first emperor!"
Liang Hou slowly turned around, bowed to Chu Xiang, and said in a dumb voice. "The public says that it is very good! The concubine will strictly investigate this matter, and will never allow such a great evil person to steal my country!"
"Thank you, Queen!" Chu Xiang sobbed silently, threw himself on the ground, slapped the ground and cried. "The first emperor! The first emperor! It was the old minister who didn't know people clearly, and mistakenly believed in Gongzi to dispel this thief! Almost helped this thief to become the emperor, the first emperor, Chu Liang lost the investigation, Chu Liang is guilty!"
"Chu Xiang, you are loyal and courageous, what are the crimes? There are not a few people who have been deceived and deceived, but they only hate this thief who plotted to kill the first emperor, he was too cunning, and he almost deceived him into the throne of the country, and his crime should be punished!"
Liang Hou turned his eyes and looked coldly at Gongzi Pi, who was sitting on the ground, and said loudly. "Come on, take down Gongzipi, and put him in prison!"
"Yes!"
There was a loud response from outside the door, and the four gold-armored guards rushed up, holding Gongzibi's arm and escorting him out of the hall.
How could Childe be escorted away by them? He struggled a few times without moving, and craned his neck and said loudly.
"I am the crown prince of the first emperor! Tomorrow I will be the king of Liang! If you dare to touch me, you will commit the following crimes! This is in the Taimiao! Where is it the turn of a woman with a foreign surname to accuse me of Liu's son?!"
"Climbing?" Liang Hou stood up straight, looking at Gongzi with an angry face. "Today, the first emperor appeared and told the truth, but which one of them accused you? You killed the first emperor, and you still forced yourself to quibble, don't you want to cause a greater disaster to Daliang?!"
"I have never harmed my father!, you slut, have defiled me!" the prince paused and shouted more affirmatively as if he had thought of something. "Queen, you're pretending to be a ghost, aren't you? It's you! You're going to lie to me! I'll never admit this trumped-up crime! I'll never admit it!"
Gongzi Pizheng shouted loudly, and suddenly bowed down from outside the hall and came in a few attendants, seeing these people, Gongzi Pi stopped suddenly, his face was bloodless, his body was weak, and he almost collapsed on the ground again.
"Dai?" said Youxiang as he squinted his eyes and wiped the tears from his face as he stared at the attendant who came in. "Dai, where have you been, why don't you wait in the temple?"
The waiter called Dai raised his head, his face was full of bruises, and he could see that the right minister frowned.
"Right phase, left phase, queen, generation, rudeness. The chamberlain, called Dai, knelt on the ground and said in a dumb voice. "Flee from the tiger's mouth in a hurry, don't dare to slack off, we specially came to apologize to the first emperor for his life!"
After that, these inner servants bowed to the tablet of the Fallen Emperor, all of them were extremely pious, bowing and worshipping, until the hundreds of ministers crowded in the hall looked even more puzzled, and they all pricked up their ears to listen to the next words of the inner attendant.
After bowing to the tablet of the Fallen Emperor, the chamberlain said with a crying voice.
"Queen, my lords! The slave is the servant of the Taimiao ceremony, named Dai, today there is a vision in the Taimiao, the tablet of the first emperor has been dumped several times, and how we can correct it is not feasible, and then it happened to move, the slave did not dare to slacken, and secretly gave the prince, who knew that the prince knew about it, and actually sent someone to kidnap us and others, and wanted to kill my twelve people for this matter! Fortunately, the first emperor appeared to save him, and I only escaped halfway, the queen, my lords, the prince made this move, and I was really ashamed!"
After listening to the statement of the chamberlain, the pot immediately exploded in the hall, Gongzi Pi lost his arrogance anymore, drooped his head, and was pulled down by the golden armor guard, Liang Hou watched Gongzi Pi disappear at the door with cold eyes, and then wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and walked to the middle of the main hall.
"Today's events must be investigated, otherwise the first emperor will not be able to turn a blind eye. After a pause, she looked at the ministers and said in a clear voice. "Where is Daliqing?"
"Queen, Dali Qing has an emergency, and he has never come, Shaoqing Yuan is here!" As he spoke, a young man came out of the ranks, knelt on the narrow road next to him, and bowed to Liang Hou.
"Okay! Yuan Zheng, I heard that you had better show justice and investigate the case of the prince, it is none other than you, from now on, this palace will give you a gold medal order arrow, you will immediately investigate this matter thoroughly, the sooner the better!"
Liang Hou said, untied a gold medal from his waist and handed it to Na Yuan Zhengdao. "With this gold medal, you can come and go inside and outside the palace at will, this is the first emperor's thing, if the first emperor comes in person, if someone resists the decree, the law will be corrected on the spot!"
"Yes!"
Na Yuanzheng took the gold medal, took two steps back, and strode away with the gold medal in his hand, and everyone in the hall didn't know what to do, so they had to look at Liang Hou.
"Such an ugly thing happened to my Da Liang, it is really a misfortune for the country!" Liang Hou sighed lightly and said to everyone. "The country, you can't be without a king for a day, the prince can't be forgiven, you can't be a king again, tomorrow's ceremony can't be without a king, can you have a good plan?"
