Chapter 647: Xianxia Wen Eats Melons and Farms Daily (23)
The stargazing tower, which was once carved and made of jade, now only has a frame supported by pillars and beams, and under the frame, ghost fires flickered, and countless lonely souls and wild ghosts stretched out their sharp fingers and roared downward with their bloody mouths, as if they were asking for their lives from the Mei family.
Hearing is false, seeing is believing.
No amount of "ghost fire" and "resentful ghost" stories can compare to the reality of witnessing all this.
Originally, he was skeptical of what the strong man said, and felt that the fear of the strong man and the onlookers was just a timid and afraid person, but he was also paralyzed by fright at this moment.
"Resentful, resentful!"
Someone shouted with fear on his face.
Several people on this man's side had the same faces as him, and besides fear, there was even greater fear.
They are all officials of the concubine's faction, and in many matters of the Mei family, they have always directly shielded or turned a blind eye, because they have never seen any karma in their lives until now.
But now, the Mei family's affairs have given them a blow to the head.
The prime minister glanced over, and those people were so frightened that they immediately fell silent, but their fearful expressions mixed with weakness had already indicated everything.
They have demons in their hearts.
This "ghost" not only really exists, but also lurks around them, ready to take revenge on them at all times.
The others, who saw the form of a few people in their eyes, immediately rushed to start taking a stand.
"How many innocent lives have the Mei family killed!"
"Play! I want to play to Your Majesty, thoroughly investigate the Mei family, and give justice to everyone who has died unjustly! β
"What about the National Teacher, why is the National Teacher not here on such an important occasion today?"
"I've already sent someone to invite the national teacher."
"The Mei family carelessly cares about people's lives, does a lot of evil, commits great crimes, people and gods are angry, and heaven is intolerable, even if I fight for my life this time, I have to say an explanation for these unjust souls who died in vain!"
"If these unjust cases cannot be investigated, what face will we have to face the people of the world?"
"Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to give an order to thoroughly investigate the Mei family's unjust case!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, give the order!"
After the minister, even the surrounding people knelt down.
Everyone is asking the prince to order a thorough investigation of the Mei family's unjust case, find out the identity of those unjust souls, and give justice to those who died in vain.
The ghost fire has disappeared, the ghost has fallen silent again, and the stargazing tower has become a ruined wall again.
The crown prince's gaze retracted from the stargazing tower, he looked at the courtiers and people kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Block the Mei family, and the cases involved in the Mei family will be handed over to the Imperial History Terrace of Dali Temple of the Criminal Department for trial." β
"When the people appeal their grievances, they must be thoroughly investigated one by one, those who refuse to do so, those who are dismissed from their posts and investigated, and those who refuse to change after repeated teachings will be killed."
"If you have an insider, report it to the government, and you can get a reward for silver, this degree, you carefully consider."
"Those who fail to report information are regarded as harboring and are severely punished; Those who commit perjury are guilty of the same crime and are sentenced to ......"
The crown prince gave a number of instructions in a row.
When everyone listened, they knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to move seriously.
These instructions, one by one, from top to bottom, if they can be thoroughly implemented, it will directly block the way of the Mei family.
When the evil deeds of the Mei family are thoroughly investigated, they will be angry and resentful, and even if there are concubines and princesses Zixia interceding for them, it will be difficult for His Majesty to ignore the voices of the people, and then insist on conniving at the concubine and princess as before, and conniving at the Mei family.
Not to mention, the relationship between His Majesty and the concubine and princess is no longer as close as before.
After the prince finished his instructions, the prime minister refined and perfected the prince's will, and at the same time put forward some proposals that were more favorable to the case.
"Your Highness, your injuries are not yet healed, you should go back to the palace first, everything here will be responsible for the minister." The prime minister said.
After he finished speaking, the others also looked at the prince worriedly.
The prince was able to be strong and calm, and he never showed any signs of illness, so that they almost forgot that the prince was still seriously injured.
"We will assist the prime minister to deal with the matter here, and I also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take care of your noble body."
"Please return to the palace with His Royal Highness the Prince!"
The crown prince did not refuse, "In this case, many matters will be left to everyone." β
"Please rest assured, His Royal Highness the Prince, we will not disappoint His Royal Highness the Prince."
"Lonely disappointment is secondary, the key is not to disappoint the unjust souls and let the people down."
"Remember, Ministers!"
Chengfeng and the others went to carry out the task, and Liu Huaijin helped the prince into the carriage.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Princeβ"
The prince walked for a long time, and the national teacher came slowly.
When everyone saw it, they all hurriedly stepped forward, "I've seen the National Teacher!" β
While they wondered why the national teacher came so late, they also changed the law and said good things to please the national teacher, if they could give them a few talismans or something.
Although they are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door if they don't do bad things, the fright they received today is too great, let alone digest it for a while, I am afraid that they will be afraid for a long time.
If you can find a talisman, you can also feel at ease, right?
After hearing this, the national teacher replied with two words: "No." β
Everyone: "......"
How could it not be!
A dignified national teacher, with great magical powers, but so stingy!
The national teacher seemed to hear everyone's voices, and he had an unfathomable expression, "There is no talisman, if you want to see today's picture every day, then I have a way." β
When everyone heard this, their expression was more terrifying than when they saw a ghost.
Is this talking about human words?
Wrong.
The age of the national teacher is unknown, and his origin is also a mystery, maybe he is not a human being!
At this time, the prime minister came over, and the others hurriedly retreated, and the prime minister said, "You are really calculating." β
"Zishu, why don't I understand what you mean?" National Teacher's Road.
Prime Minister: "Princess Zixia has an extraordinary background, relying on the so-called 'Mandate of Heaven', she and the concubine, and even the entire Mei family are high above ordinary people, even above Your Majesty, once upon a time, you advised Your Majesty not to be too persistent in the Mandate of Heaven, everything has its own fixed number, Your Majesty did not listen, but instead snubbed you, the national teacher, and now you sit back and watch all this happen, don't you want to fight back against Princess Zixia's 'Mandate of Heaven' through the 'Ghost Theory'?" β
The national teacher stroked his non-existent beard, and he said, "You're half right, I'm really sitting back and watching all this happen, but I've never thought of fighting back at anyone. What about Destiny? Things must be reversed, what should come will always come, and time will let His Majesty see everything clearly. β
Prime Minister: "But you added fuel to the fire, have you ever thought about it, in case ......?"
National Teacher: "There will be no case, Her Royal Highness the Princess will be fine." β
Prime Minister: "How do you guarantee it?" β
National Teacher: "I swear to the sky......"
Before the word "oath" landed, a thunderclap sounded above everyone's heads.
The void was torn through several openings, and countless purple lightning converged and collided, like a roaring and crazy swimming dragon, majestic and magnificent, as if it was about to swallow the entire world.
Before everyone could come back to their senses, the purple dragon landed straight on the stargazing tower.
Click.
Between the electric light and stone fire, the stargazing tower fell.
