Chapter 178: Imprisonment
"Mean, I knew I had to live to have everything. If you die, there is nothing. Song Xi shouted in an angry tone.
"Fatty, don't get so excited, the concept of every class has been formed over thousands of years, and it is not something that you can change with a sentence or two. What you said is not wrong, and what she said is not wrong. Tang Mian stopped this pointless dispute in time
"Tang Mian, what do you say?" Song Xi looked at Tang Mian and said.
"It's okay to do anything, everything has to wait for Zhengxiang and them to wake up." Tang Mian looked at Zhou Feng in his arms and said.
"! What the hell is that old ghost? We didn't even have a chance to fight back, we were hit hard, this old ghost can't be a congenital powerhouse, right? Song Xi scolded and muttered.
"Congratulations, fatty! You guessed it right this time, that Li Wu is known as the military god of the Chu State, according to the information my family has obtained, this Li Wu has been a master of the innate realm as early as more than 20 years ago, it is said that he has not been able to shoot with all his strength for a long time, but looking at today's strength, he should be deliberately hiding his strength, with Zhengxiang's various magical powers, he still can't stop him from punching, according to my estimate, his strength should be very terrifying, not inferior to my grandfather! Tang Mian then explained.
"Dead fatty, shouldn't this cell hold you? cough cough cough ......" Suddenly, Zhou Zhengxiang slowly opened his eyes and looked at Song Xi.
"You want to lock me up in this place? If it weren't for you, I'd be out of town by now...... Belch...... Are you awake? Song Xi said proudly.
Hearing this, Zhou Zhengxiang rolled his eyes, if he didn't wake up, who was talking to him?
"In that case, let's get out of here at once. I hope the crown prince can survive this hurdle. Zhou Zhengxiang said with a soft sigh.
Prince Zixu is like a living dead at this time, and Zhou Zhengxiang is naturally responsible for serving as the think tank of this group of brothers.
The jade rabbit is slanting to the west, and the east has lit up with a white color like a fish belly, and the long dark night is about to pass.
Zhou Zhengxiang, who was lying in Tang Mian's arms, opened his eyes weakly, and what caught his eyes was a worried expression and a dim cell.
Tang Mian saw Zhou Zhengxiang open his eyes, hurriedly helped him up, and asked anxiously, "Zhengxiang, how are you feeling?" ”
Zhou Zhengxiang licked his dry lips and said, "It's amazing!" That old man's skills are so strong, he is merciful, he didn't have a heavy hand, I don't have anything to do, it's just that the meridians have been shaken, and it's okay to breathe. After finishing speaking, Zhou Zhengxiang swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.
Zhou Feng immediately stepped forward, straightened him, and said, "Since this is the case, you should hurry up and breathe!" When you're better, we'll get out of here at once. Otherwise, I'm afraid there are too many variables. ”
Zhou Feng sat cross-legged and slowly closed his eyes, his hands were sealed, and he mobilized the remaining internal force in the dantian to repair his damaged meridians.
Zhou Zhengxiang's awakening more or less reduced the bleakness of these six people, but every time he looked at the dim eyes of Prince Zixu, he didn't feel a sigh.
Time passed slowly in this anxious waiting, and when the sunset came, Zhou Zhengxiang opened his eyes, and his eyes were no longer dim when he first woke up, and his eyes returned to clarity.
Zhou Feng immediately asked, "Brother Zhengxiang, how is it?" ”
"It's not a big deal, although it's not fully recovered, but it shouldn't affect my movements." Zhou Zhengxiang said with a smile.
When he saw the empty eyes of the prince Zixu, he said anxiously: "What's wrong with the prince?" Could it be that he was also hurt by that old man? ”
"None of us have been hurt except you, Prince...... Alas! It's hard to put into words. Tang Mian sighed heavily.
"Now is not the time to say these things, will you still leave?" Song Xi shouted.
"Okay, the fat man opens the door, Xiao Feng and Tang Mian open the way, Tang Yuan protects the prince, and I will break off." Zhou Zhengxiang cheered up and said.
"No problem!" After Song Xi agreed, he took out a thin wire from the hem of his clothes, held the wire of the lock in his left hand and inserted it into the keyhole. Just as Song Xi was picking the lock, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the distance.
Song Xi was taken aback, hurriedly took back the wire, and said, "What's the matter?" It's almost night, how can so many people come? ”
"I don't know, let's see the situation first. Zhengxiang, you pretend to be seriously injured, and act according to my eyes when the time comes. At this moment, the prince suddenly said calmly,
Zhou Zhengxiang hurriedly leaned on the bed with his eyes slightly closed, pretending to be seriously injured. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, a team of gold-armored guards came to the cell, the jailer hurriedly opened the cell, and an old man with white hair and a dignified attitude between his eyebrows walked through the gold-armored guards into the cell, it was Li Wu.
Li Wu swept the six people, and when he saw the empty eyes of the crown prince Zixu, he sighed slightly, and then said to several people: "By the will of Your Majesty, I will take you to the Sanqing Palace now to deal with your crimes under the witness of the ancestors of the past dynasties." I advise you not to play any tricks, otherwise don't blame the old man for being ruthless. Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhou Feng intentionally or unintentionally, and with a wave of his hand, several gold-armored guards poured in, escorting the six people out of the prison.
Zhou Feng was supported by the two Golden Armor Guards, secretly looking at these Golden Armor Guards. Zhou Feng was confident that he could deal with these golden armor guards in the shortest possible time, but Li Wu, who was at the forefront, had to make him extremely jealous. Although Li Wu didn't look back at them, Zhou Feng felt that his every move could not be hidden from Li Wu, and the slightest change in himself would definitely attract Li Wu's thunderous blow.
After walking for about half an hour, Zhou Feng and the others finally saw the Sanqing Palace in Li Wu's mouth. This Sanqing Palace is a Taoist temple, but this Taoist temple is just for the royal family. When they saw the whole picture of Sanqing Palace, even as prisoners, they couldn't help but be stunned. Although Sanqing Palace is only a Taoist temple, but the degree of luxury is not under the palace at all, the whole Sanqing Palace is made of purple gold building, it looks very magnificent under the afterglow of the sunset, the position of the rockery around is very cleverly arranged, as if this purple gold Taoist temple is built in the mountains. The water is murmuring under the mountain, the pine and bamboo are swaying, and the birds are singing. This Taoist temple is not like the Taoist temple that Zhou Feng and they saw before, in addition to the unique style of Taoism, the decoration fully shows the Taoist style: these decorations clearly reflect the Taoist pursuit of auspiciousness, longevity and feathering to ascend to immortals. For example, depicting the sun, moon, nebula, landscapes and rocks to imply light and eternal life; Fan, fish, narcissus, bats and deer are used as the appearance of goodness, abundance, immortality, blessing and lu; Pine and cypress, Ganoderma lucidum, turtle, crane, bamboo, lion, unicorn and dragon and phoenix symbolize friendship, longevity, gentleman, evil spirits and auspiciousness respectively. In addition, it also directly changes its shape with the words Fu, Lu, Shou, Xi, Ji, Tian, Feng, Le, etc., and is used on the window lattice door skirt and the eaves Shu column, diagonal brace, finch for the finch and beam fang. Zhou Feng and the others only now understand why the crown prince said it at the beginning. Only when you have seen the royal Taoist temple can you see the real Taoist architecture.
It's just that seeing all this, Zhou Feng secretly disdains it in his heart, the emperors of all dynasties are like this, in his later years, when he is about to decay, he believes in the ethereal legends and immortal tales very much, so that he trusts some religions very much!
Li Wu brought the six people to the Sanqing Palace, but in the middle was the image of the previous emperors of the Chu State was hanging, which was completely depicted in gold, and the internal beams and pillars were also made of purple gold. The old emperor sat in the center, and the ministers of civil and military affairs were lined up on both sides. After Li Wu waved his hand to let the Golden Armor Guards retreat. He bowed to the old emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has been ordered to bring six princes, and now I am here to hand over the order." ”
"The old marshal has worked hard, come here, give Marshal Li a seat." The old emperor commanded in a kind tone.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Wu gave another salute and sat on the brocade stool.
After the old emperor waited for Li Wu to sit down, he looked at the six princes and Zixu at the head, and said: "The prince Zixu deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors, but as a descendant of the royal family, he forgot his ancestors, did that great rebellious thing, and lost the face of the royal family, which should have been a capital crime." However, Nian was still young, so he was exempted from the death penalty, and he was expelled from the imperial capital from now on, and he was not allowed to step half a step away from the Chu State for life, and he was not allowed to take pride as his surname. The old emperor glanced at the prince Zixu, who was indifferent as if he was a living dead, and then said: "As for the other five, they used force to hurt people in the main hall of my imperial capital, but they wanted to warn, so they were arrested in the harem forbidden room and locked up for three days......"
Zhou Feng and the others saw that the old emperor did not immediately execute the crown prince Zixu, and understood that he still had some father-son affection after all, but the decision to expel the prince Zixu from the Chu State and not have the surname of arrogance was even more uncomfortable than killing the prince.
As for the five of them, there is nothing.
The old emperor glanced at the six people and said, "I am so decisive, do the ministers have any objections?" What else do you have to do? "The old emperor decided so. Naturally, it will not change, he asks these questions is just a process, and naturally no one will raise objections. Just when the old emperor was about to wave everyone back. A voice sounded: "Father is slow, my son has something to play." ”
Everyone followed the prestige, and it was the eldest prince and the second prince who spoke.
The second prince took a few steps forward, bowed and said, "Father, the son has something to play." ”
"What's the matter with the emperor?" The old emperor looked at the second prince with slight surprise.
"Erchen saw that his father was old, and his eldest brother was so ignorant, and now the neighboring countries in all directions were eyeing him, and Erchen didn't want to see his father work so hard, so Erchen asked his father to pass on the throne to me. At that time, the father and the emperor will be able to enjoy his old age in peace......" The second prince smiled, but his words were amazing.
