46. Refusal to accept the order (the third change)
The next day, there were still some days before the Chinese New Year.
And yesterday's incident of Lord Bi and Mei Gonggong eating a dog was a knock on the mountain, so everyone else didn't dare to act rashly anymore, and they all shrank their heads and curled up to restrain their subordinates.
So the mob disappeared, and for the first time, the streets of the imperial capital ushered in stability, less scolding, more scolding, less chaos, and more order.
After the early morning, the light snow began to rise again.
In the snow, a fast horse stepped into the south gate and entered the imperial capital.
The rider hurried into the palace and brought with him a decree.
"The Seventh Prince Xia Ji received the decree~~~"
The voice sounded in the main hall, but it rang for a long time, but no one answered.
After a long time, the eunuch came and said, "Your Highness is by Huaqing Lake, you can come with me." ”
The person who announced the decree didn't say much, as the eunuch walked to the lake on the east side, in the small pavilion at the four corners, a young prince wearing a loose robe was holding a carving knife and engraving prayer beads, and a very short, but stunning charming palace maid sat beside him?
The palace maid is looking at His Highness with resentment?
But His Royal Highness didn't care about this palace maid at all, his body was full of strange Zen, which made his whole person and the wind and snow melt together, and with the carving knife in his hand, he was carving and chopping.
The wind and snow are getting stronger, like thousands of white pythons swimming around in the palace, but he is extremely quiet, especially the hands that are extremely stable and fast.
One by one, the wooden beads were produced from his hand, and then they were put into the box, and by this time there were already many wooden beads in the box.
His mind is also calm, since it is difficult to open the door of heaven, then he is looking for strange books,
Pile up thousands of peaks, and then move mountains and earth, and stack these peaks on top of each other, and he doesn't believe that he can't be so high as to pierce the sky, and if he can't, it's not high enough!
and then on the other hand, strengthen the magic weapon,
Since the one hundred and eight prayer beads carved by Nyolai Zen can be turned into ten golden Buddha palms, then he now has to make one thousand and eighty prayer beads.
Originally, I would be extremely tired when I made twenty or thirty grains in one go, but because of the two major harvests in the Lei Yin Temple, my limit has been improved, and now I can carve forty or fifty grains at a time.
One thousand and eighty grains, representing one hundred and eight numbers of the Ten Dharma Realms, the "Ten Dharma Realms" refer to the world of confusion and enlightenment, which is divided into hell, evil ghosts, beasts, Shura, earth, heaven, sound, Yuanjue, Bodhisattva, and Buddha, which are the realm of confusion of ordinary people and the realm of enlightenment of saints.
Feeling that someone was coming, Xia Ji stopped moving, glanced back at the guard dressed as a forbidden army and the holy decree he was holding, and said, "Read." ”
The forbidden army came to his senses at this time, and he unexpectedly found that he was not at all dissatisfied in his heart, although his hair had been dyed a lot white in the wind and snow, but just looking at this prince, he would feel peaceful and peaceful in his heart.
Thinking about the great things that this prince has done in the imperial capital these days, this master of the forbidden army can hardly connect those things with the prince in front of him.
But he unfolded the decree and recited it.
"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says, the seventh prince Xia Ji lives up to my expectations and guards the imperial city, which is a merit, but he makes a mess of the palace and ignores the etiquette and law.
The people in the city, lonely and helpless, the prince did not want to appease, but the violent punishment of Ling Chi, this is the atrocity that caused chaos, and now he is removed from the post of generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, if he sincerely repents, when I return, he will bear the guilt in front of the city.
Chin this. ”
After the holy decree was recited, the forbidden army master looked at the prince in the pavilion, and couldn't help but show a little sympathy, he didn't know what the fate of heaven said, he only felt that the prince in front of him was very pitiful, obviously guarding the imperial city, and now the Son of Heaven not only wanted to deprive him of his merits, but even put all the blame for the riots in the imperial city on him, so that he could become a venting point for refugees, and then the Son of Heaven would come back to clean up the imperial city and gain the hearts of the people.
However, what can this prince do?
Individual bravery, can not completely override the group, the former strength to the gods of the six-armed Shura rebelled with the Red King, after the defeat, the six-armed Shura was not forgiven for killing too much, so he began the road of escape, during the Shura King Zero Zero total killed more than 10,000 pursuers, but in the end he was killed in his sleep, the person who killed him was just a nobody on the rivers and lakes, just because the King Shura at that time had run out of oil, a poisoned knife passed through his eyes, inserted into his face, and penetrated his head.
Although the Seven Princes are brave, they must be a little worse than the god-like six-armed Shura King at the beginning, he has no choice, even if he is angry, he is helpless.
If he is a military general, he will enter the military department and become a tiger general with authority, but he is a prince and was born in the emperor's family.
"Your Highness, please take the order. ”
Xia Ji said calmly: "No." ”
The proclamation of the forbidden army master and the eunuch who led the way were dumbfounded.
The two of them didn't know how to react.
They have not yet seen those who refuse to answer.
The master of the forbidden army said directly: "Your Highness the Seventh, Your Majesty has stationed 500,000 troops in the Southern Dynasty, and many capable people have come to vote, originally preparing to counterattack the ghost side to recapture the imperial city."
Now that His Royal Highness has defended the Imperial City, His Majesty has sent General Nangong Heda to lead 30,000 vanguard troops into the Imperial City to stabilize the situation, and now there are still three days left before the Imperial City... You'd better take the order. ”
Xia Ji said: "Ask him, if I go to the city to ask for the guilt, will he dare to come and see?"
The Forbidden Army Master was silent.
The eunuch was also drenched in a cold sweat, he didn't expect His Highness to be so brave.
"Your Highness the Seventh, if the Son of Heaven asks the reason, what should he say about his humble position?"
Xia Ji said: "Let's go down." ”
If the Son of Heaven still asks the reason, then it is not the Son of Heaven, the affection is all ripped off, and there is no kindness at all, not to mention that the death of the mother concubine is inevitably inseparable from him, what else do you want to ask?
"Yes, Your Highness. ”
The master of the forbidden army seized the holy decree and left, and rode out of the city.
Calm returned to the shores of Huaqing Lake.
Hu Xian'er, who was forced to wear winter clothes, glanced at Xia Ji strangely, "I didn't expect you to be quite hard, but I don't know how long you can last?"
Xia Ji: "Speak well." ”
Hu Xian'er: "What to say, the slave family is all your people, you might as well take the slave family..."
Xia Ji's expression moved, ready to inflict punishment.
Hu Xian'er hurriedly held her head and screamed: "Don't, don't, don't!ah~~~"
The eunuchs, guards, and palace maids in the distance heard this mysterious voice, and they all hurriedly ran away, not daring to listen carefully.
"Old fox, don't pretend. ”
"The older the fox spirit is, the better his kung fu is, master, do you want to give it a try? If you don't try, let me go, if you let me go, I won't bother you." ”
"Shut up. ”
After Xia Ji said these two words, he continued to carve the wooden beads, and it would not take too much effort to carve the wooden beads, and then he began to make the prayer beads with Rulai Zen.
The powerful spiritual power is condensed on the surface of the wooden beads through the sympathetic means of Nyolai Zen, the gold paste is self-revealed, and the heavenly dragon swims away until it leaves a deep swastika on the wooden surface.
After making a rosary, he directly took another one.
One by one, without stopping.
Hu Xian'er, who was about to say something more, looked at this scene in amazement, she had already understood that the young prince in front of her was actually making magic weapons, and he was making them so fast?
What is he a magic weapon?
Is it so easy to make?
The old fox couldn't help but fall silent again.
