Chapter 187: Forcing the Palace

Yue Du Xuan.

Forbidden City, inside the Funing Palace.

Emperor Yingjun Mo put on a bright yellow dragon-patterned gown, covered his knees, and wore a crown of twelve on his head.

Father-in-law Lao Mao bowed down to tie the belt for Emperor Yue, his wrinkled hands were trembling, and even his voice was shaking, "Your Majesty, do you really want to go to worship the heavens?" ”

After being in the palace for a long time, Lao Mao's father-in-law has been keenly aware that the prince will force the palace in this sacrifice ceremony.

Yue Huang Yingjunmo's voice was steady, and there were no ups and downs, "The epidemic in Xunyang is a loss of morality, and I naturally want to go." ”

Lao Mao's father-in-law raised his head suddenly, and glanced at Emperor Yue Yingjun Mo with worried eyes.

Yue Huang Yingjun Mo has a slender figure, a clear face, and a long-term illness, but he is a generation of emperors, and he still stands straight, with his chin raised, maintaining the majesty of the emperor.

Lao Mao's father-in-law finished changing the clothes of Emperor Yue, and finally sorted out his appearance.

Yue Huang Yingjun pursed his lips silently, "Let's go." ”

Lao Mao received the will and ordered the little eunuchs to carry the dragon chariot.

Lao Mao's father-in-law helped Emperor Yue to get on the dragon chariot and shouted: "Get up." ”

The little eunuchs carried the dragon chariot to the Temple of Heaven.

The square under the Temple of Heaven was full of civil and military officials, lined up one after another.

Flags flutter above and below the Temple of Heaven, and dragon patterns embroidered with gold thread shine in the sun.

When the civil and military officials saw the arrival of Emperor Yue, they all knelt down and shouted long live.

But how many of them are sincere, it is not known.

Lao Mao's father-in-law saw that his scalp was numb.

Emperor Yue Yingjun Mo was supported by Lao Mao's father-in-law and got off the dragon chariot.

On both sides of the royal road are Ouchi's honor guards, but these people are empty and have no combat effectiveness.

The samurai in armor behind the guard of honor is the Ouchi Praetorian Guard.

Lao Mao's father-in-law saw Gong Sanmo, the commander of the Praetorian Guards standing on the side of the steps, and his heart was slightly calm, and the two nodded to each other.

But looking along the road, there seemed to be some unfamiliar faces in the Praetorian Guard, and the entourage behind the prince was all strong and seemed to be good, and the heart of the old Mao father-in-law was raised again.

However, Emperor Yue Yingjun did not squint and slowly walked up the three steps of the Temple of Heaven.

Step by step, when he reached the highest point of the Temple of Heaven, Yue Emperor Yingjun Mo was already out of breath, and he stopped to take a breath.

Then, under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, he burned incense and bowed to the Emperor of Heaven, and said: "I am not the same as virtue, I can't go up to the light of all the three lights, and then go down to the sum of the masses, so that Xunyang will mutate, and the blame will be burning, and I will only be afraid of the night, and I will not be able to be healthy." The way of heaven is not far away, and the reprimands are false, and the surnames of ten thousand people have been given, and they are given to one person. Today, I am in pain, and I am guilty of -——"

The sin has been completed, return to the middle level to the emperor to kneel three times and bow nine times, and then, under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, go up to the Temple of Heaven three times to offer wine three times, each time kneeling and bowing three times.

The ministers who accompanied the sacrifice also knelt and bowed together with the Yue Emperor.

After this set of procedures, the sick and weak Yue Huang was physically exhausted, and cold sweat also broke out on his forehead.

Lao Mao's father-in-law felt sorry for Emperor Yue and had been supporting him, but Emperor Yue was determined to complete the ceremony of worshipping the sky independently, so he didn't let Lao Mao's father-in-law support him.

It wasn't until two hours later that the entire ritual was completed.

Lao Mao's father-in-law walked up at this time, supported Emperor Yue's waist from behind, and quietly stuffed a ginseng pill into Emperor Yue's hand.

Watching Emperor Yue take it under his tongue.

Lao Mao's father-in-law wiped the sweat on his forehead and was about to help the emperor go down to the Temple of Heaven.

Suddenly, I don't know who shouted under the Temple of Heaven, "Emperor Yue is not benevolent, please give way to His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Lao Mao's father-in-law looked at it and saw a person kneeling under the Temple of Heaven, which was a brief book of the imperial historian.

The old flesh on Lao Mao's father-in-law's face trembled.

I saw a group of people kneeling under the black pressure under the Temple of Heaven, all shouting, please let the Yue Emperor give way to the prince.

Emperor Yue was not too angry, walked to the edge of the steps of the Temple of Heaven, and beckoned to the prince who was serving in the middle, "Long'er, come here." ”

The crown prince Ying Jinglong raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Yue, but he stood still, and said with a frightened expression: "Father, this is the intention of the ministers, and it has nothing to do with the sons." ”

However, the four guards beside Prince Ying Jinglong walked up to the Temple of Heaven with swords.

Lao Mao's father-in-law hurriedly shouted: "Escort!" Escort! Glaring at Ying Jinglong, he asked, "Are you going to rebel?" ”

At that time, Gong Sanmo, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, stepped forward with his soldiers with swords and fought with the rebels.

Lao Mao Gonggong said that he was relieved, but he didn't know that the rebel army was all genetic warriors transferred from the Bei'an Army, and all of them had martial arts higher than ordinary people, and even the well-trained Praetorian Guards were no match for him.

Soon, the Praetorian Guards were slaughtered, and their corpses fell up and down the steps of the Temple of Heaven, blood gurgling down the steps.

Lao Mao's father-in-law was dumbfounded, and suddenly saw the banner at the gate in the distance, and a force of ironclad troops poured out, led by the commander of the Zhenxi Army, King Wu Yingjingtai.

Lao Mao's father-in-law shouted: "His Royal Highness King Wu! Don't come and escort it yet! ”

King Wu shouted: "The prince rebels!" Escort! Escort! ”

The army around King Wu also shouted: "Escort!" Escort! ”

But it was just a loud shout, and no one came.

Lao Mao's father-in-law couldn't understand the situation.

Emperor Yue Yingjun silently pressed Lao Mao's father-in-law's shoulder, "He wants to reap the benefits of the fisherman, and when the prince kills me, he will kill the prince in the name of stirring up chaos." ”

Lao Mao's father-in-law suddenly realized.

At this time, the Praetorian Guards had almost been killed, leaving only Gong Sanmo to resist stubbornly with wounds.

"Your Majesty, go quickly, these people seem to have eaten the legendary genetic -——" The words may not be, and he was stabbed in the chest with a sword by an East Palace guard.

Yue Huang Yingjun Mo was still standing on the edge of the steps of the Temple of Heaven and stretched out his hand, "Long'er, be merciful." ”

Prince Ying Jinglong looked at Gong Sanmo, who had fallen to the ground.

Gong Sanmo supported the ground with a sword, but he couldn't get up, even if he didn't die, he wouldn't be useless.

So the crown prince Ying Jinglong walked over to Emperor Yue, his expression was still as humble as ever, "Father, this is really the idea of the ministers, and I have no intention of doing so." ”

Although humble, there is no fear.

The crown prince was followed by his personal guards.

Emperor Yue grabbed the prince's wrist, "Long'er, you created the Xunyang epidemic, and you have a lot of ability." ”

The prince said: "Father, you have no evidence, you are wronging your sons." ”

Emperor Yue's body swayed, as if he was about to fall down at any time, he lowered his head to look at the prince with the heart of the Buddha, and sighed, "You have a lot of means, but you can keep the country." ”

The crown prince looked at Emperor Yue, against the light, but he couldn't quite see Emperor Yue's expression at this time.

Seeing Emperor Yue shaking his head, "It's just that the common people are going to suffer." ”

As he spoke, suddenly a dagger appeared in Emperor Yue's hand and stabbed it towards the prince's heart.

At this time, the prince was close to the Yue Emperor, but he was not guarded, and the knife sneered through the prince's robe.

It's a pity that Emperor Yue is a long-term sick person after all, and he doesn't have much strength, and the knife pierced a little bit of skin, after all, he couldn't stab too deeply.

In an instant, the guards beside the prince had already reacted, grabbed Emperor Yue's wrist, pressed it hard, and stabbed at Emperor Yue.

The guard was none other than the Gene Samurai.

Emperor Yue's life was in an instant, and the civil and military officials under the Temple of Heaven, as well as the martial king on the other side of the gate, were all nervous to death.

Lao Mao's father-in-law nervously rushed over, eager to block this knife with his own body.

At this moment, a gunshot was suddenly heard, and the head of the genetic warrior was shot through a hole the size of a wine glass, and the blood mist burst out along with the brain, and fell straight forward.

Emperor Yue was pleasantly surprised, "It's my Jiu'er!" ”
