Chapter 144: Entering Beijing
"Today, you will come to talk to all the old and young masters, big brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts...... Take stock of the treasures in the palace of King Jing..... Say this black and white peacock, a shellless turtle, a three-legged rabbit, or a fox girl with a tail....."
"Of course it's a fox girl!" Everyone spoke in unison.
The thirty-first year of the Yuan Ding of Xishu, the third day of the lunar month. The capital city of Xishu ushered in the first snow of the year.
The capital city of Xishu is one of the few large cities in the southwest.
Goolan tile shop, winery restaurant, hot spring pool, that is everything.
The storyteller held a folding fan in his hand and set up a temporary case at the corner of the street.
The playful idlers shivered, shrunk their necks, huddled together in groups of three or five, pricking up their ears to listen to interesting stories.
The storyteller's cheeks were black and purple, and his mouth and tongue were full of lotus flowers, and he was very neat:
"Okay, in that case, let's talk about this fox girl."
"Yesterday, I said that King Jing's Mansion occupies a whole street in Kuishou, and there are countless rare and exotic beasts in the house, yesterday I said that there is no shell turtle, today let's talk about the pair of fox sisters, guess, where did the pair of fox sisters come from?"
"Nature is ..... by the spirits of the mountains and forests"
"Fart, sent by the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, filial piety to Prince Jing."
"Tut-tut, fox girl, still has a tail, can our Jing Wangye's small body stand it?"
Listening to the discussion of everyone in the audience, the storyteller was not in a hurry to speak.
Instead, he picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip to moisten his throat.
When everyone had guessed, the storyteller spoke:
"This strong man is right, it is sent by the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, saying that since the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom was dispersed, the vitality has not recovered, and the country will not be a country, and it is struggling to support it, barely surviving...... The pair of fox girls with long tails are indeed sent by the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.... I heard that I just got that pair of fox girls, our King Jing, but I haven't been out for three days and three nights....."
"Tut-tut......"
"This matter is not groundless, I don't believe it, my old cousin's second uncle's nephew friend is on an errand in King Jing's mansion, but he heard the ..... from time to time in the house."
The storyteller's mouth is like a river, and the spit is flying, and the people below listen to it with relish.
Especially in the matter of men and women, they are reluctant to miss a word.
When everyone was in the best place, there was a sudden commotion on the street in the distance.
"What?"
"Stop! Stop it! ”
When the storyteller and many other listeners heard of it, they saw a group of strangers riding into the city on horseback, but they were stopped by a group of guards patrolling the streets.
Under the New Year's Festival, there are many troublemakers.
There are also many more Royal Guards patrolling the streets than usual.
When they see something suspicious, they stop and check their identity.
No, it is estimated that a few outsiders suddenly entered the city during the New Year's Festival, which attracted the attention of the Royal Forest Army, so they stopped and checked as usual!
Soon, a group of armor-piercing and sword-wearing guards stopped the group of strangers on horseback.
The little flag officer at the head pressed the long knife on his waist, stepped forward slowly, and pointed at the other party arrogantly and scolded:
"You guys, come down!"
The leading stranger is an old man with good facial features and a straight waist.
The old man and all the people behind him were dressed in robes and hats.
Looking closely, several people were stained with a lot of blood, like gangsters.
Seeing that several people were not looking good, and the murderous intent on their bodies was soaring, the little flag officer was afraid in his heart, and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Yanjun Shouyi, who disguised himself as entering Beijing, saw that there were more and more people watching around, and nodded to each other.
If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent!
It is necessary to make a big deal about it, and it is best for everyone to know about it.
In this way, the Shu Emperor could not protect King Jing.
After signaling to each other, Yan Junshou stretched out his hand and dragged off the camouflage coat on his body, took off the hat, and shook off a snowflake, revealing the red-robed official uniform inside.
"Hey, it's an official?"
"This is really a big flood that has washed the Dragon King Temple!" There are people who say it.
The little flag officer rubbed his eyes vigorously, and saw that the old man in front of him was wearing the official uniform of a Xishu official, and he was about to get out of the way.
However, he took a closer look.
Something is wrong.
This official uniform is not like that worn by officials on the streets of the capital, but from other places.
Before he could figure it out, Yan Junshou suddenly waved his robe, his voice was thick, and he said loudly:
"Minister, Wushan County Guard, no call to Beijing, the crime deserves death!"
"Minister, write a letter to impeach King Jing! For his own selfish desires, King Jing Meng Yuanqi united with Shuxianmen Shen Tu City, refined the Evil Soul Devouring Bead, cultivated the Demon Dao, and killed 23,458 lives in Juxian Town! ”
"Minister, I implore Your Majesty and the princes of the court to seek justice for the 20,000 monks who died innocently and tragically in Juxian Town, and severely punish King Jing!"
After speaking, Yan Junshou took out a copy of the recital from his sleeve.
Hold your hands high so that all can see.
As soon as these words came out, the street suddenly exploded!
The people exchanged their heads and talked about each other.
"Minister, Wushan County Guard, write a letter to impeach King Jing, and ask Your Majesty and the princes of the court to severely punish King Jing!"
When the little flag officer saw that something was wrong, he immediately went back to tell him.
A moment later, a Captain of the Imperial Guards hurried in.
The commander had big eyes and a big nose, a beard, and a tall horse, waved his hand to disperse the onlookers, glanced at the people who were making trouble, and scolded:
"Come on, take them all!"
"Who dare!"
Yan Junshou's eyes widened, and those Imperial Forest Soldiers were terrified.
Where had they ever seen such terrible eyes?
There is such a thing as official authority, which is mysterious and mysterious.
The commander stepped forward, not afraid at all, squinted his eyes sharply, and said:
"Wushan County Guard, without being summoned to Beijing, can be regarded as a rebellion! Take it down for this officer! ”
According to the rules, local officials, regardless of their official position, are not allowed to enter Beijing without being summoned, otherwise they can be regarded as rebelling. If you want to enter Beijing, you must first have an excerpt, and you can only enter Beijing after the imperial court agrees.
The Wushan county guard suddenly appeared in the capital and suddenly revealed his identity, which was inappropriate.
What's more, this commander had already received orders from above.
If you meet someone from Wushan County who goes to Beijing to sue the emperor, no matter what means you use, you must stop it, and you can't expand the situation.
After that, the two relatives casually stepped forward to take Yan Junshou.
It's just that before their hands were close to Yan Junshou's shoulders, they only felt a chill on their necks, and then the world turned upside down, and they saw the stunned face of the leader.
Hey, why are your eyelids getting heavier?
Oh, we're dead......
Two pillars of blood gushed wantonly, and warm blood sprinkled on the long street, pouring red snow.
The Commander froze on the spot, breathing stagnantly.
It happened too quickly and too suddenly.
The onlookers didn't react, and by the time they did, the two Imperial Foresters had already been cut off in the head.
Immediately, the people scattered and fled.
Killing, killing......
The murderer was a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard and a cloth shirt.
He still held the knife in his hand, the tip of which was still bleeding, and in the other hand he held a wine jar and took a small sip.
Xun Yijian shot and killed the two people who stood in the way, doing what he often did along the way.
In the past half a month, he has lost count of how many people who have blocked the way.
Needless to say, these people were all sent by King Jing to block the way.
Inserting the knife back into the commander's scabbard, Xun Yijian patted the commander's shoulder, wiped the blood off his hand, and said with a smile:
"Get out of the way, you can't stop this."
The commander's throat rolled, his eyes rolled, and he looked at Xun Yijian.
He recognized this Xishu Great Offering, nodded blankly, and then took a few steps back to get out of the way.
Yan Junshou nodded and gestured to Xun Yijian to express his gratitude.
Along the way, if there was no escort by Xun Yijian, a great master, they would not even be able to leave Wushan County, let alone arrive in the capital so quickly.
Waiting for the Imperial Forest Army to get out of the way, Yan Junshou continued to hold the fold with both hands and shouted:
"Minister, Wushan County Guard, write to impeach King Jing."
"Minister, please ask Your Majesty and the princes of the court to severely punish King Jing and seek justice for the 23,458 lives of Juxian Town!"
Yan Junshou shouted as he walked, his voice getting louder and louder each time.
Everyone followed behind Yanjun's guard, from the city gate, along Suzaku Street, under the witness of hundreds of thousands of people, swaggering all the way to the palace gate.
On the way, there is no shortage of departments to intercept...... First the Imperial Forest Army, and then the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, the patrol battalion...... Shuxian Gate and so on.
Of course, they can't stop it, because Xun Yijian will kill!
……
"What? They've already entered Beijing? ”
Kuishou Street, Jingwang Mansion.
King Jing, who was performing the ceremony of Zhou Gong, was surprised when he heard the report of the guards outside the door.
He was so frightened that his legs shook, and he suddenly went limp.
casually sent away the two fox girls who were still unsatisfied on the bed, and King Jing was neatly dressed under the service of the maids.
He took the mink hat handed by the guard at the door, put it on his head, and was about to go out.
The guard said, "Lord, where are you going?" ”
King Jing let out a breath of evil breath, raised his head, looked at the not very good weather, and ordered: "Enter the palace." ”
The guard said: "But today, Your Majesty and the princes of the imperial court are receiving the delegation from the Great Zhou. ”
The corners of King Jing's mouth curled: "It's just right, this king is going to join in the fun." ”
Boarding the luxurious carriage at the gate of the palace, King Jing leaned in the carriage, holding the stove in his hand, closing his eyes and resting.
He was thinking about how to tell the emperor's brother about this when he entered the palace for a while.
Last time, Shen Tucheng said that the tail was not cleaned, and King Jing didn't care much.
Afterwards, many people were sent to deal with it, and they stumbled along the way, but they still didn't stop those people from entering Beijing.
Right now, I can only enter the palace and sell myself in front of the emperor.
