Chapter 405: Father, please abdicate
"It's not", Xiao Yao's expression was still faint.
Then, I saw her continue: "According to me...... My observation during this period of time, in these short days, the young master of the Wang family, Wang Rui, went to the Praetorian Guard a total of five times, which was much more frequent than before. The same was true of King Xian, who had made a total of two trips to Wang's house in just a few days, one of which was after it was rumored that Jin Wu's guards were going to Lingzhou......"
As they listened to it, the more they listened, the more shocked Emperor Qi and Gonggong Hai felt, and then some mourned for King Xian and the Wang family, and every move of the itinerary was under the control of others.
Actually, it's not as powerful as you think......
The reason why Xiao Yao noticed these details that others did not notice was because after the great flood in Lingzhou, the rebellion in Liangzhou, and the invasion of the Tatars in the north on the border of Qi, her eyes fell on King Xian and the Wang family, intentionally or unintentionally, paying attention to their every move.
"Also, before I came to the palace, I went to the Wang family for a reason to meet Princess Ruoyun, but I didn't see it, Wang Jiayan and their young grandmother just went to Qingyuan Temple, I don't know when she came back, however, as far as I know, Princess Ruoyun generally only goes to Qingyuan Temple once a month, and she has already been there ten days ago this month."
"In this case, we might as well make a bold guess if Princess Ruoyun has discovered something, so the Wang family will not let outsiders see their young grandmother."
"It doesn't matter if it's just a coincidence, after all, there are always some accidents in the world, but it's not a coincidence that so many coincidences happen to come together."
When she said this, Xiao Yao paused, then thought about it, and continued to say: "If you are not afraid, you are afraid of 10,000, you are not afraid of the expected situation 10,000 times, you are afraid of the unexpected accidental situation once, don't take it lightly." ”
Hearing this, Emperor Qi couldn't help but be stunned, because this sentence was novel, and it didn't look like it came out of Xiao Yao's mouth.
So, Emperor Qi couldn't help but ask, "Yao'er, who said this?" ”
"Li Anyi", Xiao Yao said lightly.
"It turned out that kid who could always say something strange and inconsequential", Emperor Qi couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
……
The next day, under the watchful eyes of the courtiers, the guards of the Kingo stepped out of the gate of the capital step by step.
On the third day, with the support of the courtiers and the escort of the Praetorian Guards, Emperor Qi headed for the site of the disaster ceremony, accompanied by King Xian and King Ren Xiao Daoqi.
In a short time, everyone had arrived at the place where the disaster ceremony was held.
This is a large square, and there is a temple of earth in the middle, and at this time, everything that should be prepared on the altar of earth has been prepared.
On the outskirts of the square stood several layers of Praetorian Guards, each armed with a spear and a long knife hanging from his waist, making people afraid to approach.
A little farther away, the people came to see the bustle.
Emperor Qi stepped on the steps, and then came to the altar of earth.
Thus, the disaster relief ceremony officially began.
On the altar of the earth, Emperor Qi looked serious and did the actions that should be done in the disaster ceremony, as well as read out the words that should be read, and the courtiers below also looked at Emperor Qi's every move with a solemn face.
The atmosphere of the whole audience was quiet, dignified and serious......
King Xian's expression didn't look unusual.
Nioh Xiao Daoqi on the side looked a little bored, and he opened his mouth to yawn, but the next second he realized what the occasion was now, and it was obvious to yawn on such an occasion.
So, he forcibly suppressed this yawn, and was interrupted alive, and his expression looked a little unpleasant.
These slight movements of his may not have been noticed by others, but the Xianwang beside him noticed it and couldn't help but look at it.
Xiao Daoqi smiled at him, a little uncomfortable and embarrassed between his smiles.
King Xian also smiled at him, nodded slightly, and then withdrew his gaze and looked at Emperor Qi on the altar of earth again, and a trace of inexplicable light flashed in his eyes without anyone noticing.
When Emperor Qi stopped moving and stopped making a sound of reading on the altar, it was announced that this time the disaster ceremony had come to an end for the time being.
Then, after a while, Emperor Qi finally walked down from the altar of the earth and came to the front of the ministers, and when he was about to say something, King Xian stood up at this time.
"Father, son-in-law has something to say", King Xian said directly to Emperor Qi.
King Xian's action was really unexpected by everyone, and his eyes couldn't help but look at King Xian with some astonishment.
Is it coming?
Emperor Qi silently read this sentence in his heart, and after taking a slight breath, his eyes were directly locked on King Xian's body, and he said in a rather stern tone: "Xian'er, if you have something to say, you can say it again, once you say something, you will never be able to take it back." ”
Such profound words made King Xian subconsciously panic.
However, when he thought that he had made so many preparations for today's events, for him, this time was no less than the right time and place, and this thought and panic slowly dissipated.
He took a deep breath, and said with a very firm and serious face: "Father, you are already very old, and your physical strength has gradually failed to keep up with the energy needed to deal with the affairs of the country, so, Father, please abdicate, and let the sons and sons lead the affairs of the country on behalf of the Emperor......"
At the same time, more than 20 people jumped out from the Praetorian Guard, and protected King Xian in the middle position, these people are all first-class masters in the martial arts, and King Xian spent a certain price to get it.
The grim middle-aged man was among them, and after landing on the ground, he directly took out the fire fold and a bamboo pipe similar to a firework tube from his arms.
I saw that he used a fire breaker to ignite the lead of the bamboo pipe, and then lifted it up towards the sky.
Boom!
The flickering fireworks burst into high school, shining so brightly that they were clearly visible even though it was daytime.
If they didn't realize anything, the ministers would have lived in vain, and the ministers were horrified, and then they reacted differently.
Some people have a calm face, some people are scolding the virtuous king, some people retreat slightly, hiding themselves, and some people's eyes are flashing, not knowing what kind of idea they are making......
However, Xiao Daoqi looked at King Xian with a shocked and complicated face, obviously he didn't expect that his second brother would do such a rebellious thing at the disaster killing ceremony, he was still smiling at himself just now, there was nothing wrong with it......
For everyone's reaction, King Xian ignored it, and all his attention fell on Emperor Qi, who was also protected by the guards in the middle, his own father.
