I can't help it if you think so, verse 21
"What if she doesn't come?" Liujing raised his eyebrows, "Can you sacrifice directly?" ”
"No, some aspects of the underworld are more pedantic than the mortal world, especially in the matter of temple sacrifices, if she doesn't come, even if those ghost ministers die, they will never let the emperor enter the boneless tomb." After Shajia finished explaining, he found that Liujing was only staring at the emperor and didn't listen carefully at all, and he was speechless for a while.
On the high platform, Fei Shan's face was gloomy, and the air pressure around him was getting lower and lower, and the ghost ministers were worried, for fear that he would rush in directly regardless of the rules, only the raccoon slave was calm, and after standing with Fei Lin for a while, he persuaded in a low voice: "Emperor, go back, I am afraid that the Venerable Chenwu will not come today." ”
"Since this seat is here, there is no reason to go back." Fei Silent was expressionless, and his pupils were terrifyingly black.
"The emperor wants to break in?" The tanuki glanced at the ghost ministers in embarrassment, "But in that case, they must be crying and kneeling, the scene is too ugly." ”
"It doesn't matter, whoever dares to oppose it will kill him for five generations, shatter his body and split his soul, so that they will not dare to talk nonsense in their lives." Fei Lonely said lightly.
The ghost ministers who are about to vigorously admonish: "......"
When it came to this, the tanuki slave naturally stopped persuading and directly took the sacrificial jade slip.
Fei Lin looked at the extra jade slip in his palm, and suddenly caught a certain figure of a thief in the crowd of the stele forest, he paused and clenched the jade slip, and immediately sensed that in addition to the scriptures, there were also a lot of traces of snake tail crawling.
He: "......" finally knew why he woke up tired.
The most loyal ghost minister on weekdays saw him stop, thinking that he was shaken, and hurriedly lowered his voice to persuade: "Emperor, the Venerable Chenwu refuses to come, firstly, in order to save your face and force you to release the non-Qiyan Jun, and secondly, knowing your temperament, even if she does not come, she will forcibly enter, which is equivalent to hurting the hearts of the courtiers, and she can take the opportunity to separate." ”
A wisp of consciousness was still in the jade slip, and his face was expressionless to feel how many times he had crawled in it last night.
"Emperor, the minister knows that you are wronged, but for the sake of the overall situation, it is better to let her be proud again, and when you have a queen in the future, she will not be able to come even if she wants to......"
After reading Yu Jian, the irritability that Fei Lonely had born from early in the morning has been diluted by speechlessness at the moment, and his reason has returned.
He raised his eyes shallowly, and accurately found someone from the pile of people in Wuyangyang below, and Liujing immediately looked at the sky and resolutely refused to look at him. Fei Shan was not annoyed, but just glanced at the tanuki slave coldly, the tanuki slave was stunned for a moment, and immediately lit an open flame after reacting.
As soon as everyone below saw the torch, they all looked around, trying to find the figure of the Venerable Dust Worry, instead of staring at Liujing in silence, until she couldn't help but look at herself, and then said with a blank face: "Come here." ”
Streaming: "? ”
Chapter 18
The stele forest and the high platform are ten zhang away, and the sound is not loud, but everyone present can hear it clearly, and the crowd is stirring for a while, and they are curious about who he is talking to.
“…… Don't you think he's calling you? Shega hesitated.
The scenery is full of vicissitudes and continues to look at the sky.
Shega looked at Fei Shan, looked at her, and then looked at Fei Shan, and confirmed, "It's just for you." ”
The corners of Liujing's mouth twitched, and before he could speak, Xiao Huang next to him sneered: "Idiot talking about dreams." ”
"What do you mean?" Shega frowned.
Xiao Lu pulled Xiao Huang's sleeve, but Xiao Huang disagreed: "The high platform is an extension of the boneless mound, you should be able to go to anyone?" She was just a maid, how could the emperor call her over. ”
"Why not?" Shega returned the favor.
Xiao Huang sneered: "Then let her go, see if the emperor kills her after she goes to the high platform, or let her be in charge of the open fire." ”
"Go and go," Shega sneered, turned her head and shook Liujing's arm, "Sister, go!" ”
Liujing: "...... "Thank you."
On the high platform, Fei Lin didn't say anything after saying the sentence 'come here', and looked at the woman who was still pretending to be dead, although there was still no expression on her face, but the air pressure around her body was obviously not so low.
His gaze was direct and obvious, and the whispering stele forest gradually quieted down, and everyone followed his gaze to search for the person he was looking at, and before he knew it, he was looking at the flowing scene. Xiao Huang beat a drum in her heart and muttered in a low voice: "It's just a coincidence, there are so many people here, how do you know that the emperor is looking at her." ”
Liujing changed from looking at the sky silently to looking at the ground, and his head wanted to go down into the dust, so that everyone could not find themselves. Seeing her working so hard, Shega suddenly felt sympathy: "Are you doing something that lacks virtue?" ”
Liujing looked at him: "I didn't. ”
Shejia looked at her quietly for a moment, and suddenly said, "Sure enough, he is doing something lacking in virtue." ”
Liujing: "......" just coaxed the little black snake into the jade slip and crawled all night, which is a lack of morality.
On the high platform, the tanuki slave had already prepared the torches, and Shega stared at the raging flames for a long time, and suddenly thought of something, and for a while his expression suddenly became subtle.
Without waiting for him to open his mouth to remind, Fei Shi spoke again: "Get out." ”
From 'come here' to 'roll over', it clearly means that patience is exhausted.
Liujing couldn't hide, and sighed vicissitudes: "Rabbit, remember to collect the corpse of your ancestor." ”
Shega stopped talking, silently watching her walk towards the high platform.
There was silence in the stele forest for a moment, and then the crowd parted the sides like flowing water, and forced out a wide road. Xiao Huang watched her walk away step by step in disbelief, and finally sat down on the ground with a soft foot, Xiao Lu and the others exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly helped her.
There was a small commotion behind him, but Liujing didn't look back at the excitement, and thought of 800 ways to quibble in the process of silently walking to the high platform, but as soon as he walked in front of Fei Lone, there was only one sentence left: "Emperor, I was wrong." ”
"Hold on to the fire." Non-lonely light open thin lips.
The huge torch was handed over, and Liujing subconsciously caught it, and there was a sudden sound of gasping from below.
Liujing realized what she had picked up, looked at the tanuki slave who took a few steps back and pretended that nothing happened, and then looked at the calm non-loneliness, she was determined to throw out the troublesome torch-
"Presumptuous!" A white-bearded old man in the corner said angrily, "The little maid also dares to take the open fire, is she impatient?!" Don't put it down yet! ”
Liujing paused, took back the hand that was about to throw it out, and smiled at him obediently.
Old man: "......"
The corners of Fei Lone's lips curled a little, and he raised his eyes to look at the closed stone door: "Open the door." ”
"Emperor, don't! The temple sacrifices have always been carried out by the most noble woman in the underworld, how can you find a maid to come casually, this is really disrespectful to the ancestors, disrespectful to the Venerable of the Dust! The old man was still obsessed.
Several people who had not dared to squeak before also fell to the ground and cried bitterly, making a big farce noisy.
The raccoon slave was irritated when he heard this, and immediately reprimanded them: "When the emperor wanted to break through before, why didn't I see you come to persuade me, but now I have found the fire holder, and you are talking too much, and I don't know whether you are afraid of disrespecting your ancestors, or afraid that the Venerable will be unhappy." ”
"Ministers, ministers, etc. are also thinking about the emperor! In the tens of thousands of years since there was a temple sacrifice in the underworld, there has never been a reason for a maid to hold the fire, if the ministers let the emperor become this matter today, how to meet the first emperors in the future! ”
"The emperor thinks twice, the emperor thinks twice! Don't ignore the ancestral rituals in order to ignore the ancestral rites and laws for the sake of a momentary anger! ”
The ghost ministers were bitter, and they had the posture of kneeling to death on the high platform, Liujing, as the object of the crusade, slowly yawned with torches in both hands, and when he turned around, he saw Fei Shi staring at her, and he was still holding the jade slip in his hand.
You don't have to ask, you can know from his expression that Yu Jian's matter has been completely revealed.
Liujing coughed lightly, silently rubbed to his side, and explained in a low voice: "Emperor, it's really not that I deliberately fooled, it's you who want to help after turning into a snake last night, I have no choice but to follow you." ”
Fei Jing looked at her, and from an angle that the rest of the people could not see, he folded the jade slip into two pieces with one hand.
…… Didn't you repair it and still be so cruel? Liujing: "Emperor, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again, please spare me!" ”
"Make up for it." Non-lonely light open thin lips.
What do you mean? Liujing was puzzled, and was about to ask, when the ghost minister next to him knelt down: "Emperor! ”
Liujing: "......" understood.
She took a deep breath and turned her head to look at the ghost ministers who were crying bitterly: "What are you crying about, why are you crying, you are still like a child when you are old, are you ashamed?" ”
"You ......"
"What am I, what's wrong with my fire?" Liujing sneered, "Let me ask you, who is the most honorable man in the underworld?" ”
"Of course it's the Emperor!" The ghost man blew his beard and glared.
Liujing glanced at him: "You also know that it is the emperor?" He is the most noble man, I am his woman, my wife is noble by her husband, is there a problem with me holding the open fire? ”
"You're just a maid, and you dare to claim to be the emperor's wife?" The ghost minister immediately retorted.
Liujing looked at him for a moment and raised his lips: "Yes, can't you?" ”
"Poof......" The tanuki slave couldn't hold back a laugh and quickly straightened his face. I have to admit that this woman is very annoying, but when she is angry with others, it is still quite interesting.
The ghost minister was so choked by Liujing's arrogant attitude that he couldn't speak, and he held back a sentence for a long time: "You just said that you are breaking the sky, and you are also a lowly servant girl, if you want to hold the open fire, you can do it first!" ”
Liujing immediately looked at Fei Lonely with an expectant expression.
Fei Lin met her gaze and twisted his fingers, and the jade slips that were originally two pieces became four.
“…… What is the queen of the underworld, I am not rare, I am satisfied to be by the emperor's side, "The promotion failed, the scenery did not change, and continued to reply to the ghost minister, "If you don't hold on to the identity of the queen of the underworld, then we will break it from somewhere else, and I ask you, the emperor was poisoned before, did I save him?" ”
"So what?"
"I saved him, and I am his savior, do you admit this?" Liujing asked again.
The ghost minister didn't know what she had in mind, but he still nodded and admitted: "You saved the emperor, you should be rewarded." ”
"That's not a question of reward or not, the grace of saving my life is greater than the sky, I am a reborn parent as far as the emperor is concerned, she is worried that a stepmother can hold the open fire, but I can't be a reborn parent?" The flow scene is justifiable.
Tanuki: "......"
Ghost Minister: "......"
Everyone in the Forest of Steles: "......"
Shega's face was expressionless, and she had already figured out how to help her collect her body.
Everyone present was stunned by her logic, and Liujing took the opportunity to raise his chin towards the tanuki: "Why are you stunned, open the door." ”
The raccoon slave immediately pushed a token into the card slot of the stone gate, the sky changed suddenly, and after a rumbling thunder, the heavy stone door slowly opened, and Liujing took the torch to enter the door first, and when he turned around and saw that Fei Shan was still outside, he immediately spoke: "The emperor is coming." ”
Fei Lonely looked faint and walked in slowly.
The stone door slowly closed, and the stunned ghost ministers came back to their senses, and immediately shouted at the top of their voices.
"The Emperor's temper has been getting better and better lately," the tanuki said coldly before they could speak, "If it had been before, some people would have hardened before they could speak. ”
Ghost Ministers: "......"
The tanuki sneered, keeping the troublemakers in mind, and planned to settle the accounts one by one when the temple sacrifice was over.
Bang - the last crack in the stone door was closed.
In the clouds and mist, Liujing held a torch in front of Fei Silence and slightly illuminated the way ahead: "Emperor, how did I behave just now?" Did you make up for it? ”
"The way you make up for your mistakes is to take advantage of this seat?" Non-lonely rhetorical question.
Liujing looked innocent: "Just win the quarrel, don't care about the process." ”
Fei Lonely ignored her and walked forward, and Liujing waved a torch at his back, in exchange for a cool glance from him, he immediately followed honestly.
The stone gate and the carved railing of the stele forest outside the boneless mound are very magnificent, but the inside is very ordinary, the smoky wasteland, there is only a straight road, and on both sides of the road stand two feet high stone tablets in turn, and each stone tablet is engraved with the name and life of a meritorious man.
Liujing followed behind Fei Lonely boredly, the torch in his hand burned warmly, shining on Fei Lonely's thin and lonely back, as if it would never be extinguished.
I don't know how long I walked, the smoke gradually dissipated, and a monument to heaven appeared in front of me, Fei Shi stared at the name at the bottom of the monument for a moment, casually threw the jade slip that was split into four petals in front of the monument, and then took the torch in her hand and threw it into the incense burner, turned around and walked back.
