Chapter 655: Back from the Dead
The two of them stayed until dawn, the king did not move, and Zuo Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief. Pulled Zuo Lan up: "Third sister, go back and take a rest." ”
Zuo Lan looked back at the king's body unwillingly, it was indeed the original lying appearance, without any traces of movement.
Leaving the Soul Hall, Zuo Ji's face was full of pride, and he almost laughed. Ask Zuo Lan can rest assured now, the king will never wake up, and the rest is to fight with Zuo Zhi. As long as he cooperates well with Tianlong, Zuo has no chance.
Zuo Lan nodded: "I'll go back and explain this matter to the princess of Tianlong." ”
"Well, she'll be happy too. I apologized to her for not being able to find the deflagration powder that Zuo Zhi arranged in your Fengming Garden in time. ”
"It shouldn't matter, the princess didn't take it to heart. I'll go back first, and my eldest brother will also rest more. ”
Zuo Lan left and went home worried. Xiang Bei was playing badminton with Yu Miaomiao, and when he saw her come back and asked her what was wrong, he didn't seem to be very happy.
Zuo Lan said: "Sir, you really miscalculated this time, I have already asked, my father should have woken up at night, but he didn't wake up, and Zuo Ji has already succeeded." ”
Xiang Bei stopped: "You mean that you didn't wake up when it was time to wake up?"
Zuo Lan said yes.
Xiang Bei said that the one lying on the jade bed was definitely not the king himself, and this time it was a plan of their grandfather. Anyway, he won't be mistaken, and the king will definitely be fine.
"Sir, can you just not be so confident?" Zuo Lan still felt that it was Xiang Bei's mistake.
Xiang Bei told him: "If I even miscalculated this thing, then what else am I messing with." If you want to know the answer, go around the palace, where the king often goes, where he is suddenly not allowed to enter, and go in and see if the king is drinking tea in it. ”
Zuo Lan thought for a while: "It seems that there is a garden that is not allowed to enter, it is an order from the queen, and the queen said that she is too sad and wants to cultivate in it, and no one is allowed to disturb her." And that's where my father used to be. ”
"Isn't that it, how obvious, the king is there. It seems that Zuo Ji was also deceived, but he couldn't figure out how the king did it. Xiang Bei looked confused.
Yu Miaomiao spoke: "Why don't we go and ask them the king, I will take my husband to break in directly and see who dares to stop me." ”
"Pull it down, it's not like that. Wait for the answer to be revealed, isn't it going to be the palace ceremony tomorrow, and then the king will pop out. ”
Xiang Bei asked Zuo Lan to hurry up and rest, with her body, it was not possible to stay up all night like this. Hurry up, don't go there in the evening, and see the excitement so close.
After speaking, let Yu Miaomiao hurry back to her side and continue to play ball.
The people who were being targeted had a lot of fun, and the guys who set up the scam tossed up first.
In this way, another day passed, and early in the morning of the second day, Feng Tianqi sent a message to tell Chu that he had gone to participate in the palace ceremony.
On this day, many of the inhabitants of the city left the royal city in silence and waited at the king's tomb. And the condolence groups from various countries entered the palace and waited in front of the soul hall.
Soon there was a chanting sound in the soul hall, which was called the reincarnation blessing mantra, which was chanted by a group of professional blessing teachers. This prayer master is the most deceitful profession of all the teachers in Xuanyuan. But they make a lot of money, because when it comes to praying for blessings and disasters, everyone needs it. Just like the monks on the earth, who are idle and have nothing to do to give people light, they are actually a group of liars, cheating money and sex. Including the palace is the same, they are the only ones who dare to call themselves teachers without real skills.
In the hall of the soul, the palace official announced: "The royal family temporarily retires, and the soul enters reincarnation." ”
All the princes and princesses withdrew from the soul hall and stood up, and Zuo Ji, as the crown prince, stood at the front with Zuo Lan. While others are discussing, why Zuo has not appeared so far, and he is not here at this time, which can be described as a big rebellion.
Listening to these discussions, Zuo Ji was very proud. I was thinking in my heart, I'm afraid that Zuo will be stinking for 10,000 years now. Zuo Zhi is a big fool, thinking that the king will wake up when he fakes his death, and now he should know that fake death can also become a real death. If you don't come back at this time, you won't be told that it's strange.
Zuo Lan was expecting, expecting that what Xiang Bei said would really happen, the king was not faking his death, but simply throwing a dummy there.
Inside the soul hall, the jade bed was lifted in its entirety, and with the chanting of the blessing master, an inner door in the soul hall opened, and the jade bed was carried in.
Not long after, suddenly the ceremonial officer ran out excitedly: "The blue sea is overjoyed, the heavens bless, my lord has come back from the dead." ”
Everyone was shocked, especially Zuo Ji was even more confused, could it be that his medicine was ineffective, but it only delayed the time to wake up, but did not kill the king?
He ran forward and grabbed the celebrant and said, "You tell me about it." ”
The ceremonial officer knelt on the ground at once: "Prince, the king is blessed, come back from the dead." ”
"How is this possible. Zuo Ji rushed in. Zuo Lan also hurriedly followed, and other princes and princesses also followed.
After entering, they were stopped before they reached the bed, and the king lay on the bed and said: "You are all here, this time the ghost door was closed, but I didn't expect to struggle back again." But I'm not feeling well now, I can't say more, I'm going to go to the bedroom to rest. You all stand down, Lan'er stays. ”
A group of people retreated one after another, and Zuo Ji looked unwilling, but there was no way, because the guards next to him were all janitarian guards, and he couldn't do anything at all. When he ran in, he was actually thinking in his heart, he was the first to rush to the bedside and send the king back to heaven, but he didn't expect that he couldn't get close at all.
Zuo Lan stayed, and the first sentence was very polite: "Does my father want me to hand over the ten million gold coins?"
The king sat up from the bed, ordered the guards to wait outside the door, took Zuo Lan's hand, and pulled her closer: "You should have known that I wasn't dead, right?"
Zuo Lan nodded.
The king asked her when she knew?
Zuo Lan replied: "On the second day of returning, I will know that the princess has calculated that you are not immortal." But she never told me until I stayed all night and was filial, and she saw that I was haggard and told me the truth. ”
"You have made a good friend, how does that Xiangbei treat you?"
"Why did Father ask about this?"
"Am I concerned about my daughter's well-being?"
"He's been very nice to me. ”
"Well, that's good, this time we're really counting with you. It just didn't work out. Don't worry that now that I'm awake and Jing Anyue is not here, there will be twists and turns in your departure. There won't be, and I can't do it with that jade wonder. Leave with your mother, because of you, she was targeted in the palace and had a hard life. I couldn't protect her either, she was a lot haggard. ”
"Father, are you serious?" Zuo Lan obviously didn't expect.
"Well, I know you're reluctant to trust me anymore, but don't doubt it anymore at this point. I didn't lie to you this time. It's just that in the future your mother is no longer a princess, you are no longer a princess, and you can keep your surname. I give you back a freedom, and you don't have to have any psychological burden. I'm awake now, but I'm also old, and I don't necessarily have much more time to live, and I don't want to be hated by my daughter anymore. I can't do anything about you anyway, so why not be a qualified father. ”
"Thank you, King Xie. ”
"Go ahead. ”
"Father, take care, beware of villains. ”
After Zuo Lan finished speaking, he turned his head and shed tears, and hesitated when he walked to the door, but in the end he didn't look back and left.
When the old king saw it, he could only sigh: "I'm sorry before, my Lan'er." ”
