Chapter 0034: King Ba's Secret Summons
When the queen left the inner palace to go out on a tour, I was suddenly summoned by the king of Ba alone, which made me very surprised, this mysterious and eternally sleepy-eyed king of Ba suddenly wanted to summon me, and carried the queen on his back, what is the point of that?
King Ba was still cowering on the bed, looking sick, and the guards all withdrew, leaving only a warrior with a sword, and closed the door, and I sat down opposite King Ba.
King Ba finally opened his sparse eyes.
"Ahem, are you really the envoy sent by the Emperor of the Emperor?" asked King Ba suddenly staring at me in a voice as thin as a gossamer.
"Not exactly. "I don't know the true intentions of King Ba, and I don't want to deceive him completely, and from his eyes, I can see his suspicions.
"Ahem, in fact, when you woke up and the priest asked, I already knew that you were not from me. I didn't expect King Ba to suddenly say this, which couldn't help but surprise people.
Actually, it's easy to understand when you think about it, because at that time I didn't know Ba at all, but when the priest asked me in the official dialect of the Central Plains, I obviously reacted.
"And the priest lied to us, so who are you, ahem, who are you?" I didn't expect that the sleepy-eyed King Ba at that time was actually bright.
"Actually, I am the envoy of King Zhou, and I am ordered to find the missing White Tiger Ba. "I had to tell the lie to the priest and the queen again.
"It doesn't matter if you are the envoy of the Emperor of Liao, cough cough, or the envoy of the King of Zhou, it doesn't matter, the key is the fate of my country. King Ba suddenly raised his voice, and his usually godless eyes also had some light.
"My mission is to revive Pakistan and the Zhou family. "I'm still unashamed to say it.
"If so? I'm afraid you're going to have to make some sacrifices. King Ba propped up his body, his eyes became grim, and he didn't cough much when he spoke.
"What kind of sacrifice?" I suddenly had a sense of foreboding, thinking of Iga's concerns.
"I'm afraid you have to leave the inner palace and Yiga for a while, and you won't be able to get married for the time being. "King Ba's suggestion fulfilled my hunch, but I still didn't understand it.
"Why?" I was a little confused.
"Because it will cause bloodshed, and it may become another catastrophe for Pakistan. King Ba said with great certainty.
"Isn't the queen all arranged? or I won't be the prime minister. "I'm a little unwilling, especially now that I'm really in love with Yiga, and I can't imagine how sad she is to leave me.
"Do you think that there are no priests in the inner palace, do you think that your conspiracy will be successful?" King Ba's two rhetorical questions left me speechless, and I don't know what signs he used to judge the priests in the inner palace, especially this secret is only known to the three cave masters and the captain of Gaduori, except for King Ba, the queen, and me.
"But to do so would be at the expense of the princess's happiness, don't you love your own daughter?" I really don't understand why King Ba would do this.
"Yiga is my favorite daughter, but compared to the fate of Baguo, I can only wronged her, and it is not bad for her to marry Hanbao. "King Ba's attitude is very resolute, and there is no room for negotiation. I think King Ba actually wanted to marry the priest in his heart, so that the safety of King Ba and Yiga would be more secure.
"Does the priest really have that much strength, why don't you organize forces against him? "I still don't give up.
"Ahem, my Emperor Ba has experienced several great tribulations, and finally was able to recuperate in the valley, only 10,000 people remain, and I can't afford to endure the hardships, although the priest has monopoly, but he is loyal to the country of Ba, and he is a good person to govern the country, not like the queen and a gang of chaos. ”
King Ba tried to brace his spirits, suppressed his coughing, and continued: "If you go according to your plan, there will inevitably be civil strife, and then the blood will flow so much that it will be too late to regret it. This passage of King Ba was deafening and left me speechless.
"Is it really that serious?" After listening to King Ba's words, he collapsed instantly, and all kinds of beautiful ideas suddenly came to naught.
"Ahem, I had a terrible dream last night, I saw people in the valley killing each other, corpses were everywhere, the water in the stream turned to blood, and I even saw the corpses of you and Yiga. Ba Wang closed his eyes, the muscles of his face twitching.
"Then why didn't Your Majesty stop the queen from forming a gang in the first place?" I thought to myself, it's not all the debts you planted yourself.
"Alas, when people are old, cough cough, they will do some foolish things, plus the queen ......" King Ba did not finish speaking, I remembered that Yiga said that the queen controlled King Ba in some way, what kind of way is that?
"Is it that the queen has used some method to make your majesty ......" I am not only curious, but I am afraid that this question is also relevant to me.
"It's all my own poor perseverance, I can't help myself, I hope you are not controlled by her, this woman is very ambitious. "King Ba's words indirectly told me the answer, but I don't know what kind of control it is.
"Is there no other way?" I felt that time had been condensed so much in this valley that thousands of years seemed to be condensed into months, and the long-term happiness of Iga and I was condensed into ten days, and vanished in the blink of an eye.
"Ahem, I'm old and useless, your relatives still have a great future, but I beg the messenger to put the well-being of my people first. Ba Wang tried hard to support his body, coughing constantly, and it seemed that his life was coming to an end.
Looking at the frail old man in front of me, I couldn't believe that he was the heroic and warlike 152nd king of Ba, but his words deeply stung me, and also made me wake up: What wealth, power, beauty, and lust are all passing clouds in the end.
However, in the face of such a situation, I had to make the most painful choice in my life, cut off the love thread and the ** of power, and say goodbye to Yiga, in order to avoid the consequences of the blood of the valley.
When I returned to the guest room, I immediately had a summons from the priest, and the so-called summoning was actually similar to kidnapping. Four or five samurai armed with spears led me to the priest's study and closed the door.
"Pi Jun, we meet again. "The priest sat on the chair, but he did not tell me to sit down.
"I'm ashamed!" stood there overwhelmed.
"Why did Pi Jun suddenly leave the inner palace, and he was tired of the rich days?" the priest smiled, with a hint of ridicule.
"Because I don't want civil strife in Pakistan. I replied with dignity and dignity.
"What a big breath, how do you think that there is civil strife in the country of Pakistan?" the priest asked rhetorically, still unhurriedly.
"I have a hunch. But he did not tell him of the queen's conspiracy, so that he would not cause any more trouble.
"Hahaha, I'm sure your hunch won't happen. But the priest was unmoved, full of faith, and I began to believe that the words of the king of Ba were true, and the inner palace was full of priests' eyeliners, even in the three cave lords and the captain of the guard.
"Regardless, I have decided to take your advice and distance myself from the princess and queen. "I finally compromised in front of the priests, but only for the safety of the princess and all the Ba people.
"If you think so, what about the marriage to Ria?" the priest still suggested.
"Liya is the love of Han Bao, and if possible, I hope that Han Bao will marry the princess and marry him again. "I think about the beauty of adults.
"Han Bao can only marry the princess alone, if you don't marry Liya, don't regret it. There was a subtle meaning in the priest's eyes.
"I can't do that. I replied in the affirmative. I thought that if I married Liya, I would have an indissoluble grudge against Hanbao, which was the last thing I wanted to see.
"Then I won't force you, and please do one thing for you, do the work of doing Hanbao, and persuade him not to do stupid things. ”
"Naturally, I'll do it seriously. ”
"Finally, I would like to give you a proposal to serve in Pakistan and make suggestions for the revival of Pakistan. "The priest did not forget to be gracious to me, that I might die for him.
"Thank you, the good will of the adults boy understands. I still flatly refused, and the idea of leaving the valley became more resolute.
