Volume 1 The Green Shirt Chapter 19 The Dog Blocks the Way
"The dragon rises from the southwest, and the east is good." Cheng Qianli's approval to the current Nine Emperor Princes in the Star Picking Tower was transmitted to Kyoto, and it didn't take long for it to reach the people from the temple.
For the people, whether it is the ancestor of the Cheng family or the prince of the Holy Dynasty, they are all legendary figures, and the truth or falsehood of these rumors is the talk of the conversation after tea and dinner.
It's just that on the day the news spread, many princes couldn't sleep all night, and they didn't know how many assassins had set off from Kyoto to intercept Li Chen, who was still on the way, even if doing so would make His Majesty unhappy, they couldn't care about much.
On that day, the emperor was in a very bad mood, he broke an unknown number of vases, and the eunuch on duty was dragged down and cut off his head when he was a little uncomfortable, and he didn't know who he was scolding, "My country, my world, which turn will you old dogs dictate?" Death is not transparent! ”
The emperor completely forgot that he had also borrowed the momentum of thousands of miles back then.
Three miles outside Qinghe County.
"The major families have always claimed that they will never participate in the temple dispute, but the succession of each generation of the throne cannot avoid the shadow of the family. Now our ancestor said that you are the next generation of prosperous monarchs, and what else do you say, the dragon rises from the southwest and the east, I don't know how many people want to kill you halfway. Especially like Qinghe Cui's family, he has been close to the second prince all these years, and he will not let go of such an opportunity, didn't you just throw yourself into the net this time? Cheng Zhian said: "Even I can think clearly, why do you want to go on this trip?" ”
Li Chen smiled and said: "I entered Beijing when I was eight years old, and the life book of the Taishi Academy said that I was a lone star, according to what you say, I shouldn't go to Kyoto to recognize my ancestors?" There are thousands of difficult things in the world, even if you eat a walnut, you need to break the shell, I am in the emperor's family, destined to kill one step at a time, what does it have to do with the approval of the letter of life? ”
Cheng Zhian caught up and asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
Li Chen held the reins in one hand, pointed to the city wall of Qinghe County that was becoming clearer and clearer in the distance, and sang a drama in his voice: "Look ahead, it must be the thief's lair, wait for me to rush up and kill him cleanly!" ”
The beautiful girl looked at the young man in front of her in fresh clothes and angry horses, and was a little crazy for a while.
"Huh-" Autumn Wind rode past her, dismissive.
Cheng Zhi'an was furious, "Hey! I warn you, I've put up with you for a long time, what do you mean? If it weren't for the sake of your Highness's face, it would be better to kill you and leave no pigs and dogs! ”
Li Chen and others were stopped outside the city.
The Cui family only sent two young people out, one of them was wearing a white robe with tight sleeves and narrow sleeves, and he didn't see that he was wearing a descendant of the Cui family, he said: "Your Highness, the ancestor of our family died in the Cheng family, His Royal Highness happened to be in the Cheng family that day, and the ancestor of the Cheng family sent you another sentence of approval, so you don't have to enter our Qinghe County anymore, right?" ”
Li Chen frowned slightly, "The Cui family only sent the two of you?" ”
The young man took off a jade plaque from his waist and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, the token of the head of the family is here, we have done the master, Your Highness only needs to give us the body of the old ancestor, and let us go back to pay a errand." ”
Li Chen lowered his eyelids, looked at the grasshopper that jumped out of the grass on the right under his feet, and said, "In other words, the Cui family actually knows the purpose of my trip, but they still only sent you over, and they don't plan to let me enter the city like this." ”
The young man smiled pretentiously, and everyone could see the contempt in his smile, and he pretended to salute and said, "Your Highness, is the old ancestor in your carriage?" ”
Cheng Zhian blew up on the side, stood up and said, "Are you unreasonable? If it weren't for him, Cui Xu would probably have to expose the corpse wilderness, and you make a fuss about the corpse of your ancestors, is this what future generations of children and grandchildren should do? ”
The children of the Cui family sneered, "Nine Emperor Princes, you brought back the body of our ancestor, it is nothing more than hoping that our Cui family can help you in the future, and the motive may not be as good as you say." ”
Li Chen's expression grew colder.
Zheng! Xiao Qi on the side couldn't help it for a long time, stepped forward and pulled out his sword, and said to Li Chen: "Your Highness, let me kill them!" The lord humiliated the ministers to death, if the Cui family has any follow-up investigation, His Royal Highness will push it on my head! ”
The two of them still don't care, they are holding the jade plate of the head of the Cui family in their hands, which represents the Cui family at the moment, you must know the face of the Cui family, even His Majesty of the Holy Dynasty has to give three points, just a Nine Highness, even if he gets a sentence of approval from the letter of life, what is it?
Li Chen said: "My original intention was to send Cui Xu's predecessors to return to their roots and no longer stay, but now, I have changed my mind." ”
The children of the Cui family just laughed, "Then what does Your Highness mean now?" ”
Li Chen turned around and walked to the carriage, "Xiao Qi, slaughter one, keep one, and let the Cui family change to someone of sufficient weight." ”
Xiao Qi had been waiting for Li Chen's words for a long time, and without hesitation at all, he slashed the head of the young man in white with a sword, and blood splattered on the other person's body.
Seeing that the Cui family disciple ran back in despair, Cheng Zhian was very excited, "If you still want to kill people later, why don't you let me take the lead!" ”
Li Chen was puzzled: "You have been in the ring in Dong'e City for a few years, haven't you gotten tired of it?" ”
Cheng Zhi'an made a shy appearance, "Tied in the ring, how can it compare to the majesty here?" ”
