Chapter 61: The Choice of the King
The birthday star vomited blood and fainted, and the birthday banquet immediately became a mess, and the culprits who caused all this, Ye Yunyang and Dongfang Yixue, swaggered away from the Prime Minister's Mansion and walked in the direction of the academy.
"Ye Yunyang, are we going a little too far?" Dongfang Yixue was a little unbearable, and the scene of Sun Cheng being vomited blood in public couldn't be dispersed in her mind for a long time.
Ye Yunyang said indifferently: "It's nothing excessive, he almost killed me in the court last time, I was just angry that he vomited blood, which is a very light punishment." ”
Dongfang Yixue shook his head: "After all, Sun Chengwen is seventy years old, and he suffered such a blow at the birthday banquet, so he is likely to collapse because of this." ”
"That's great!" Ye Yunyang sneered and said, "I just want him to remember this shame forever, and every year when he celebrates his birthday, he can't help but think of it, and it's good to be angry with him." ”
All of this was operated by Ye Yunyang, starting from Yin Zi rushing into the small restaurant at noon, and what happened later was all under his arrangement.
First of all, he let Sun Shiyuan learn that the incense burner was in his dormitory in an "accidental" situation, and the dormitory door "happened" to be kicked by Dongfang Yixue, and he was going to find Dongfang Yixue theory, instead of going back to transfer the incense burner, because he believed that no one dared to steal things.
Sun Shiyuan has always wanted to get the Qinglian Meditation Furnace, in order to give it to his grandfather as a congratulatory gift for his seventieth birthday, and when he learned about these things, it was impossible to be indifferent.
Of course, if he can not be tempted, Ye Yunyang's plan will be in vain.
Sun Shiyuan was really fooled, thinking that this was a good opportunity to get the incense burner, as long as he was not caught, he could transfer it out before Ye Yunyang found out that the incense burner was lost, because the door was destroyed by Dongfang Yixue, and she was responsible for the loss of the incense burner, Ye Yunyang would not turn his face with her, so he could only suffer a dumb loss.
The most important link is Duan Puhe, the timing of his appearance is very important, if he goes early, Sun Shiyuan will retreat, and if he goes late, he will not be able to see the whole process of Sun Shiyuan's theft.
Duan Puhe was chosen because of his upright personality, and if he was replaced by other teachings, he might choose to remain silent because he was afraid of the powerful background behind Sun Shiyuan. Duan Puhe is a very principled person, as long as he sees it, he will definitely report it to Dongfang Pingtai and Lin Chengyin truthfully.
In order to achieve a more realistic effect, Duan Puhe, Dongfang Pingtai and Lin Chengyin were all kept in the dark, because these three people were all upright, and it was impossible for them to frame a certain student, and only Dongfang Yixue and Yin Zishi cooperated with Ye Yunyang.
The progress of the matter was completely under Ye Yunyang's control, which could be described as seamless, the two bigwigs didn't know that they were being used by him, and Sun Shiyuan didn't know that he had fallen into the trap from the beginning.
In the Dongping King's Palace, there are two pots of ice in the corner of the imperial study, and the cool breeze is blowing.
Monarch Chen Mingda used to drink a cup of tea in the study after dinner, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation in the day.
As soon as he picked up the teacup, before he could open the lid, Princess Chen Guhe walked in angrily, and he couldn't help asking, "Why did you come back so soon, the dinner shouldn't have ended so early." ”
Chen Guhe said angrily: "Don't mention it, the birthday banquet almost turned into a funeral banquet." ”
The monarch frowned: "What's the matter?"
Chen Guhe added fuel and vinegar to tell the story again, focusing on rendering Sun Chengwen vomiting blood and fainting, the birthday stars are like this, and the birthday banquet will naturally not be able to go on, and the guests will disperse unhappily.
Guojun frowned tightly and asked, "Sun Shiyuan was really expelled from Guoxue, why did he steal things, what did he steal?"
Chen Guhe spread his hands: "I don't know, the kid surnamed Ye is very arrogant, let Prime Minister Sun Cheng personally go to Guoxue to lead people, I didn't say that Sun Shiyuan stole anything, I guess it was Dongfang Pingtai and Ye Yunyang who framed Sun Shiyuan." ”
The monarch shook his head: "Unlikely, Dongfang Sacrificial Wine is a very virtuous old man, how can he frame a student, and the participation of Si Ye Lin Chengyin in this matter shows that Sun Shiyuan was indeed arrested for stealing." What is it that can interest him, the grandson of the prime minister, and steal at the expense of his future and reputation. ”
Sun Shiyuan was expelled, it can be regarded as a stain, and it is a stain that cannot be washed away for a lifetime, and the monarch is already thinking about whether to let his daughter cut off relations with him, a person who is charged with theft cannot be a concubine.
However, this will make people feel that the royal family is unkind, and there is a suspicion of falling into the ground; and it will affect the relationship with the Sun family, many things in Dongping are inseparable from Sun Chengwen, once the two families have a grudge, it will have an impact on Chen Mingda's dominance.
He decided not to mention this matter for the time being, and stabilized the Sun family first.
Chen Guhe saw that his father favored Ye Yunyang and Dongfang Pingtai, and immediately said: "But what they did was too much, knowing that it was the 70th birthday of the Prime Minister, they even announced the matter in public, which made him vomit blood angrily, Ye Yunyang is the culprit and must be punished." ”
The monarch shook his head: "How to punish, people are now county marquis given by the emperor, no one stipulates that it is not allowed to say something that makes the master unhappy at the birthday banquet, although Ye Yunyang's approach is inappropriate, but it has not violated any law, let alone to the point where he must be punished." ”
Chen Guhe's eyes widened: "Then let him get away with it, that's too cheap for him!"
The monarch smiled bitterly: "Ye Yunyang and the Sun family have a long history of enmity, the last time in the court, Prime Minister Sun almost put him to death, and the later result was that Ye Yunyang was not guilty, Prime Minister Sun was not punished for this matter, and now he just said a few angry words, and the widow will punish him, and it is difficult to convince the public." ”
"Father, you are appeasement and adultery, you are angry with me, I'm leaving!" Chen Guhe left angrily, she felt that her father was too partial to Ye Yunyang, what was the big deal about that kid, even the fief was taken from Dongping Kingdom, and my father should not like him.
It wasn't until his daughter's back disappeared in advance that Chen Mingda shook his head with a wry smile, reached out and picked up the fold on the table, and said to himself: "The widow really can't move Ye Yunyang, not only can't move him, but also rely on him." ”
This letter was written by Dongfang Pingtai, saying that he had begun to prepare for the national strength evaluation, and was working on selecting strong students to form a team, striving to achieve good results in the competition and improve the ranking of Dongping country.
The so-called national strength evaluation is divided into three items: first, the number of martial artists above the realm of enlightenment in the country, each person counts one point; second, the number of sorcerers above the third-level priest level in the country, each person counts one point; third, each country sends the strongest two student teams to compete, the two teams are composed of old students and freshmen, each of whom competes with the team of the same level, the champion earns five points, the runner-up earns four points, the third place scores three points, the fourth place scores one point, and the last three do not score points.
The sum of the three scores is the total score of the country, which is compared with the six countries in the same level, and the ranking is based on the highest score.
Dongfang Pingtai said in the recital that he didn't dare to guarantee that the team composed of old students could achieve good results, but the new team must be able to, first of all, the overall quality of this year's freshmen is slightly higher than in previous years, and the second and most important point is the existence of Ye Yunyang, as the founder of the volley talisman, he will definitely be able to use the new witchcraft to catch the opponent off guard.
Although the volley talisman has spread in the Holy Heaven Continent, and many countries have organized special personnel to carry out research, it is almost impossible to study it thoroughly, learn it well, and join the team within three months, and form combat effectiveness through running-in.
In other words, Dongping Kingdom has an absolute advantage in this regard, and the teams of other countries still have to follow the traditional tactics, and by the time they become proficient in this new sorcery, it will definitely be too late, and they will have to wait until the next tournament to perform.
Ye Yunyang is the key person to increase the points, the monarch knows his importance very well, how can he punish him before the game, in case he doesn't do it, the loss will be big.
Moreover, news came from the Supreme Holy Temple of the Empire that High Priest Huo Hong was refining pills for him as a reward, indicating that Ye Yunyang had attracted the attention of the Imperial Holy Temple, and he could not be suppressed.
Therefore, when the monarch would refuse his daughter's proposal, he stood firmly on Ye Yunyang's side. And once this choice is determined, it will not and cannot be changed in a short period of time, because in five years, Ye Yunyang will participate in the competition again as an old student, and whether Dongping Guo can go further depends on him.
At the same time, Sun Jingming rushed to the National Capital Academy with several entourages to receive people.
Sun Jingming's face was ugly, his son was expelled from Guoxue, which caused the Sun family to lose face, and the old father was even more angry and vomited blood in public, which became the biggest laughing stock in Dongpingguo.
The first thing Sun Chengwen did when he woke up from his coma was to urge him to go to the National Academy to lead people, no matter what Sun Shiyuan did, he was a descendant of the Sun family, and since he had been expelled, he could not continue to stay in the National Academy.
From a distance, he saw the side door of the college open, and involuntarily quickened his pace, and stepped forward to report to himself: "I, Sun Jingming, Sun Shiyuan's father, are here to lead people." ”
The priest on duty walked out from behind the door and said, "You are Sun Shiyuan's father, come in, we have been waiting for you for a long time." ”
As soon as he stepped into the school gate, he was dumbfounded, why are there so many people? I thought that it would be enough to take people away quietly at night, but I didn't expect that all the teachers and students of the National Academy were standing behind the door, no wonder people would say that we had been waiting for a long time.
Lin Chengyin pointed to Sun Shiyuan, who was tied to the pillar, and said, "The son is not the fault of the father, Sun Shiyuan committed the crime of stealing, Sun Jingming, do you know the mistake?"
Sun Shiyuan's face was expressionless, Sun Jingming couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, but he had to answer the question head-on: "The contemptible person is at fault, he failed to discipline his son well, and he caused trouble for everyone." ”
Lin Chengyin looked back at the students and said, "You can see it all, violating the school rules is such an end, not to mention the grandson of the prime minister, even the grandson of the king is no exception! ”
"Remember the teachings of Master Siye. The students shouted in unison.
Dongfang Pingtai waved his hand: "It's almost enough, Master Sun, you can take Sun Shiyuan away, and discipline him well when you go back, remember?"
Sun Jingming hurriedly said, "Remember." ”
After speaking, he stepped forward in three steps and two steps, untied the rope tied to Sun Shiyuan's body, and walked away without looking back.
Lin Chengyin frowned, and said to Dongfang Pingtai: "This can be regarded as completely offending the Sun family, did you notice just now, Sun Jingming gritted his teeth more than once, looking like he was going to eat people." ”
Dongfang Pingtai said indifferently: "I don't care about the old ones, let alone the small ones, even if we don't come out like this, Sun Lao Fox will not be on our side, there is such a good opportunity for revenge, of course we can't let it go easily." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Ye Yunyang in the crowd, and a thought suddenly popped up in his heart: Was I being used as a gun by Ye Xiaozi, thinking about the whole thing carefully, there was something strange in it.
