Chapter 53: The End of the World (9)
Yi Liangwen briefly explained the cause of the incident to Lu Bing. After hearing this, Lu Bing let out a long sigh and sighed: "This thief is so resilient and scheming!" He turned to Lin Zongbian and comforted: "Fortunately, this thief has now been ambushed, and Brother Lin can be regarded as a great revenge." ”
Lin Zongbian didn't want to talk about sad things in front of him, and after raising his sleeves to wipe away the tears on his face, he took out a brocade box from his arms and presented it to Lu Bing, saying: "Lord Lu, this is the "Su Jing", please check it." ”
Lu Bing took the box into his hand, opened the lock of the box, and saw an off-white Sujin ancient book inside.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes in the hall were also attracted, and Dai Shichun even stood up and looked forward, ignoring Xu Jiangkui who was tugging at the corner of his clothes beside him.
Lu Bing just glanced at it casually, then quickly closed the lid and locked it, and handed it to a brocade guard behind him with his backhand, saying, "Paint and seal the box." ”
The brocade guard received the order, took out the lacquer wax and the open flame fold from his bosom, lit the lacquer wax and dripped it along the crack of the box, and sealed the gap of the entire box tightly. After the sealing of the box was completed, another brocade guard next to him immediately took over, put the box into the prepared delicate sandalwood box, locked it, and then tied it to his back and tied it.
When Dai Shichun saw that the "Su Jing" was put away, he suddenly felt bored, and slowly sat back, but he muttered in a low voice: "I don't know if this thing was given to the emperor or to Lu Bing." ”
Unexpectedly, this small muttering all fell into Lu Bing's ears. Lu Bing immediately turned his face to look at Dai Shichun, his eyes were cold, and he asked sharply: "What does Dai Sanxia mean by this? Could it be that he suspects that this commander has made a false edict?"
Dai Shichun was suddenly shocked, he consciously said it very quietly, but he was unexpectedly listened to by Lu Bing, and at this time, in the face of the sudden questioning, he didn't know how to respond for a while.
Xu Jiangkui, who was sitting next to him, saw Lu Bing's anger, and instantly felt a chill in his back, like sitting on pins and needles, and scolded Dai Shichun's ancestors and grandchildren all over in his heart, and at the same time hated himself, thinking about why he brought this idiot into the main hall, so that he offended Lu Bing for no reason, but now that the incident has happened, even if he regrets it, it will be useless, so he has to think about how to deal with it.
At this moment, I heard Lu Bing say: "This commander has the intention to talk to you first, and then ask for an edict to do errands, but now that some people are suspicious of this commander, then please take the edict together." After speaking, he waved his hand back, and the brocade guard who was carrying the brocade box immediately stepped forward, took out a corner scroll scroll from the box behind him, and said, "Order Lin Zongbian, the head of the Nanjing Rite Department, to come forward and listen." ”
Lin Zongbian hurriedly got up, knelt down and bowed to the corner scroll, and shouted in his mouth: "Minister, Lin Zongbian takes over!"
At this time, everyone in the hall, except for Master Tong Ze, also knelt down to receive the order. Dai Shichun looked at Master Tongze, who was standing straight, and even had the leisure to ask Xu Jiangkui beside him: "Second brother, why doesn't Master Tongze kneel? Isn't he afraid of the emperor?"
At this moment, Xu Jiangkui was already furious, but it was inconvenient for him to attack immediately, so he had to explain in a low voice: "Master Tongze is a virtuous monk, even if he sees the emperor himself, he can not kneel. After a pause, he commanded fiercely: "From this moment on, you are not allowed to say more, do you hear it?"
Dai Shichun had always been afraid of his second brother, so he hurriedly nodded his head to indicate that he knew.
The brocade guard unfolded the edict and said loudly: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Aiqing Lin Zongbian, the pillar of the country, has the virtue of being virtuous and loyal, and he is honest and selfless, which is really my fortunate." And now I have been awarded a volume of the strange book "Su Jing", I am very happy, and I am very happy to command Lu Bing to take it on my behalf, and I admire this!"
Lin Zongbian fell to the ground and shouted: "The minister receives the order, long live the saint, long live!"
In the hall, except for Master Tongze chanting the Buddha's name, the rest of the people also followed Lin Zongbian and chanted "Long live" in unison.
After receiving the edict, everyone sat down again, Lu Bing glanced at Dai Shichun and asked, "Dai Sanxia, do you still have any doubts?" Even if you need to take a look at the edict in person, it's okay. ”
Dai Shichun was really stunned, and he was about to blurt out "good", but suddenly thought of the second brother's previous advice, so he couldn't help but say nothing, turned his head to look at Xu Jiangkui, and asked for instructions with his eyes.
Xu Jiangkui hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Adult, forgive me, this second brother of the villain is a stupid rammer, he has always spoken upside down, and he has not been blocked, but if he has the heart of doubting adults, it will never be, and I hope that adults will see it!"
Lu Bing just chuckled lightly, and then said "um" lightly, noncommittal.
Xu Jiangkui saw that Lu Bing did not show his thoughts, and he became more and more suspicious in his heart, and he complained about himself even more. Originally, he just wanted to confirm that the "Su Jing" was indeed presented to the emperor, but he didn't expect that his stupid third brother actually angered Lu Bing. Everyone in the world knows that Lu Bing is cold-blooded and iron-fisted, and he has never been easy to spare people, if he really wants to take revenge, then his brothers will suffer a lot. Thinking of this, he only felt like a man's back, and his heart was extremely frightened, and his eyes when he looked at Lu Bing began to become cowardly and dodgy.
However, Lu Bing suddenly showed an expression that seemed to be smiling, and immediately reached out to pick up the tea cup on the table and play with it.
Seeing this, Xu Jiangkui felt even more flustered and short of breath, but he didn't dare to ask, so he had to wait quietly in torment.
After a while, Lu Bingcai asked with a smile: "I have heard that the 'Dongting Five Heroes' are all truth-seeking and truth-seeking, and when I saw it today, it really deserves its reputation, and it is indeed rare to have this temperament... It just so happens that this commander has an old matter that needs to be verified by Xu Erxia, and he also asks Xu Erxia to tell him the truth. ”
Xu Jiangkui felt ominous, and after swallowing his saliva with difficulty, he replied: "Lord Lu has asked, the villain must know everything, and he must have said everything!"
Lu Bing smiled, leaned forward slightly, and lowered his left elbow to the handle of the chair, and then slowly put his chin on the top of his fist, and then said slowly: "Twenty years ago, Xijing, Chenjiaguan. ”
After Xu Jiangkui heard the name of this place, his body immediately trembled, and he was instantly shocked into a cold sweat, and only after a while did he ask in a trembling voice: "This... This, what does Lord Lu want to ask the villain?"
Lu Bing suddenly changed his sitting posture again, slowly clasped his hands in front of his chest, leaned back on the back of the chair, and sighed: "It seems that the commander is not clear enough to prompt!" 'Shiyue Fist Spectrum' and eighty-six lives. ”
This time, Xu Jiangkui couldn't stand anymore, his feet instantly softened, he fell heavily on the chair, his face suddenly turned to ashes, and Dai Shichun on the side also showed a look of horror and guilt, obviously extremely afraid of what Lu Bing said.
