Chapter 4: Donghuang has never had a martial god
"You all like to follow me for the dead and for the living."
Liang Xiao was depressed.
Because of the relationship between the strange wandering spirits in his body, even if his eyes were bandaged, he could see the surrounding scene, and Liang He's blurred figure kneeling on the ground was holding a sword around his neck.
"King Heng of Donghuang can only be an uncle! If my uncle sinks, we will sink to death with you! ”
Liang He's fierce oath caused Liang Xiao to fall into silence for a long time.
In addition to his vein, the rest of the Hengwang Mansion are actually side branches.
"Why bother being so foolish?" Liang Xiao finally sighed helplessly.
Only then did Liang He withdraw his sword, hold Liang Xiao's hand, and stuff the seal of King Heng back into Liang Xiao's hand, speaking earnestly.
"In the world of life, calamity is nothing but death. There have always been warriors who die standing in Hengwangfu, and there are no cowards who live on their knees! I know that my uncle doesn't want to affect everyone, so he will accept his fate. But the Hengwang Mansion will always remember the kindness of my uncle's family, and the battle to kill the demon is all thanks to my uncle's protection and so on! I am willing to suffer with my uncle, I only hope that my uncle will cheer up! ”
"Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, don't give up! The three hundred and sixty people who are still willing to stay in the Hengwang Mansion have already considered all the consequences, how can the uncle chill everyone's hearts? ”
Liang He stopped in the end, for fear that Liang Xiao would give up on himself again.
The palace of the king with one word is now only three hundred and sixty people, not to mention that it is on a par with the big families, and even some rich businessmen in the country are not as good!
Can this still be called Heng Wangfu?
Liang Xiao clenched the seal of King Heng, took a long breath, and bowed his head slightly: "The empress, what do you say?" ”
Liang He wanted to speak and stopped, not knowing where to start.
Liang Xiao was thoughtful.
He probably guessed the answer.
For such a wasted person as him, the empress has paid too much price, facing Xirong and giving what she wants.
Both the government and the opposition are almost all opposed.
What's more, every day he started to play, asking him to be sent to Xijon, and it was a hundred.
From generals to soldiers and civilians, anyone who supports the "Martial God" is regarded as an alien by them and is suppressed.
At this moment, a young man strode into the courtyard with a sad expression: "Your Majesty wants to see Uncle Tai, and he said in public, even if he pushes a wheelchair, he has to push Uncle Tai over, Dad ......"
is the son of Liang He, Liang Ruoning's eldest brother, Liang Xincheng.
Liang He Zhengse said: "I'll talk to Your Majesty again!" ”
Liang Xiao grabbed Liang He's sleeve and said with a smile: "I'll go, I can't always let you beg her in a low voice." ”
Liang Ruoning mentioned it to him a few times, and every time the empress summoned Liang Xiao, it seemed that it was because the ministers encouraged her to send Liang Xiao to Xirong, and then Liang He, the general of the Heng Wangfu, pleaded hard.
"But......" Liang He was about to speak, but was interrupted by Liang Xiao.
"I'll go."
Liang He's eyes lit up, and he was not worried but happy, and subconsciously agreed.
For a moment just now, he found that Liang Xiao had an unquestionable majesty.
Just like when the martial god appeared, he broke through a hundred miles and slashed the big demon angrily!
In the palace hall, the empress Yun Shuangxue looked down at the hundreds of officials in the audience, and her mood was complicated.
"I will have a good talk with the prince of Hengwang, if he still gives up on himself as always......"
The prime minister in the audience came out and said loudly: "I hope Your Majesty will stop covering up and wasting the country's financial resources for a wasted person!" ”
Yun Shuangxue didn't respond, and the worry in her eyes grew thicker and thicker.
Can he really, not give up on himself?
The closed gate of Hengwang's Mansion slowly opened, and there were many people outside Hengwang's Mansion.
In the complicated eyes of everyone, Liang Ruoning pushed Liang Xiao's wheelchair and walked out of it.
There was boos and sighs all around.
A young man in brocade clothes smiled and said, "It's been a year, Prince Heng, you finally have the face to see us?" ”
Liang Ruoning glanced at the scholar coldly: "Don't blame this girl for not reminding you, it's better to be respectful when talking to my uncle!" ”
The young man in brocade shook his head helplessly: "I also want to respect the prince of Hengwang, but everyone who is self-degrading will be cheap, Miss Ruoning, look at your uncle, is he still like a person now?" ”
Everyone looked at Liang Xiao, and in an instant, all living beings were in a clear view, but most of them were disappointed and laughing.
Dressed in white, his eyes are wrapped in blood-colored bandages, a broken sword at his waist, and the golden cross scar on the left side of his face is too eye-catching.
Except for that bandage...... The Donghuang Martial God who terrified Xirong back then, wasn't this the outfit?
Liang Ruoning said angrily: "Where doesn't it look like a human being!" Back then, I was respectful, and I said a word about the martial gods, it was you nobles! Today is cynical and full of yin and yang, or you aristocrats! ”
"Ruoning." Liang Xiao suddenly spoke.
Only then did Liang Ruoning quiet down and stare at the man coldly.
Another aristocratic young master took the scholar to squeeze out of the crowd, hugged his fist at Liang Xiao and said: "Prince Hengwang, do you know that Donghuang is now humiliated by Xirong because of you!" Just now, Your Majesty is ready to pay a tribute of 100,000 taels of gold to Xirong, all thanks to you!! ”
Before Liang Xiao could speak, there was a lot of condemnation around him.
"You shouldn't have killed so many Xirong soldiers back then, so that Xirong hated it, but now you want to be happy, but the country is going to suffer!"
"I heard that he blew up the farmer's cowshed when he was a child, and he relied on his father Hengwang to pay ten times the compensation to reveal the matter, which shows that the nature of the country is easy to change, and he never thinks about the consequences!"
Liang Xiao listened to the gossip around him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Now any bad debts in the country can be counted on their own heads??
Liang Xiao suddenly laughed, and was about to say something, when a scholar squeezed out of the crowd and scolded angrily.
"Nonsense! Xirong has always wanted to let our Donghuang destroy the country and extinct the species! The decisive battle of all races was an unprecedented accident, and the martial god had previously killed so many Xirong generals to save Donghuang from annihilation. Now that Donghuang is declining, if Xirong still has the size of the army before being killed by the Martial God, he doesn't even need to exploit Donghuang for a few years, and find a reason like back then, it is easy to conquer Donghuang! ”
"You people are ungrateful, why do you throw this black cauldron on the martial god, he almost died for the sake of the human race, and he is not heroic enough?"
Liang Ruoning cast an approving glance at the scholar who was arguing with everyone.
Liang Xiao's trembling right hand grasped the handle of the wheelchair, and the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out.
He couldn't see the scholar's face, but he heard it clearly, one person's mouth, compared with the hundreds of mouths and hundreds of nobles around him, how soft-spoken, but still based on reason.
"My brother is right! You people are wolf-hearted, and you have to bewitch the people and resent Brother Martial God together! Even if he is a wasted man now, he is also the eternal martial god of Donghuang! ”
A seven or eight-year-old girl behind the scholar also stood up, pointing angrily at the crowd, and the shrill voice fell into Liang Xiao's ears, but it was deafening.
She's still a child, and she's not afraid to offend people?
Liang Xiao's heart was trembling.
"Where's this little bunny?" The noble boys and girls were reprimanded by a girl, and they were immediately furious.
The scholar said angrily: "What my little beetle said is wrong! You are ungrateful, you eat inside and out, everyone knows that you have always been subservient to Xirong, competing to betray the country, and talking about serving the country and the people all day long! ”
The two brothers and sisters, along with Liang Ruoning, are arguing with everyone.
The surrounding people watched, and most of them didn't dare to squeak, but slowly some people couldn't help but speak out and supported the three of them.
"Little girl."
Just when the two sides were arguing, Liang Xiao beckoned to Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing was overjoyed, and jumped in front of Liang Xiao to introduce himself: "Brother Martial God, my name is Xiao Jing!" ”
Liang Xiao nodded with a smile, his lips moved slightly, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Xiao Jing said with a serious face: "There are still many people in Donghuang who remember that Brother Martial God once saved us!" ”
More and more people threw grateful glances at Liang Xiao, but they were still a little hesitant.
Liang Xiao finally smiled and said softly: "Donghuang, there has never been a martial god. ”
"What?!"
Liang Ruoning, scholars, Xiaojing, many people, everyone was shocked.
The scholar who had been speaking generously and fearlessly, his voice finally trembled: "You, what are you talking about......"
