Chapter 71: A Vision from Heaven
I don't know who exclaimed, causing everyone to look up in unison, only to see that in the clear blue sky, dozens of white rays actually slipped through, falling in one direction in unison.
Everyone present was stunned by the scene in front of them, staring at the sky with their mouths half open and motionless.
It took a long time for the meteor to cease completely.
At this time, he saw several ministers suddenly come back to their senses, exchanged glances with each other, pretended to be panicked, came out of the crowd, prostrated on the ground, bowed to the Son of Heaven, and played: "Your Majesty! Such a vision is a warning from the heavens! It must be a reckless rebellion that has angered the heavens! I also ask Your Majesty to withdraw the order and call off the conquest of Western Xia!"
These people are naturally part of the Gao family.
When they saw that Sun Xu actually called an army out of thin air, they felt that something was wrong: according to this situation, once Sun Xu led the army to open up the situation in Western Xia, the prestige of the Son of Heaven would definitely rise, and their wishful thinking would not be in vain at that time? Therefore, since Qiao Feng entered the market, they have been thinking about countermeasures, and now when they see this vision from the sky, they see a needle, and plan to impeach Sun Xu on the grounds of heaven's anger.
Although Prime Minister Lu Dafang is also a member of the Hou Party, he felt ridiculous when he heard that these people were talking nonsense and using celestial phenomena to disrupt the government, and immediately stopped him: "A few adults must not speak in vain! Now that the Western Xia Dynasty is three Mu Si, I am the teacher of benevolence and righteousness in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is the right time to crusade against the Western Xia. This matter has already been announced to the world, so how can it be easily discarded? Moreover, the theory of celestial phenomena is already illusory, so how can state affairs be abolished because of celestial phenomena?"
The Qintian Prison Supervisor on the side shook the hem of his official robe, walked out of the crowd unhurriedly, raised his head and said, "Lu Xiang's words, isn't he despising the will of heaven?"
When Lu Dafang heard this, he opened his mouth to refute, but he paused and closed his mouth again, and said no more.
He knew in his heart that the will of heaven that Qin Tianjian said was not only the will of heaven, but also the meaning of the empress dowager. After all, he is a party of the Empress Dowager, and he has no deep friendship with Sun Xu, so he has done his best to help him.
Seeing Lu Dafang retreating, the Qintian Prison Supervisor glanced at him lightly, and then bowed down to the Son of Heaven and said, "Your Majesty, the comet that has just fallen to the ground is indeed a great omen. Your Majesty is invited to take a closer look. ”
When the Son of Heaven saw that these people dared to coerce him with a mere vision, he gritted his teeth with hatred and clenched his fists. But he couldn't help but face it, so he had to say fiercely: "What does Qin Tianjian mean?"
When the Qintian Eunuch heard this, he hurriedly knelt on the ground, pretending to be loyal to the country, and said: "The minister is sincerely afraid, please follow the old practice and remove all the duties of the Guangping County Prince, so as to meet the heavens!"
When the Son of Heaven heard this, he sneered, "Why don't you let me free myself?"
The ministers in the audience were shocked when they heard this, and their knees fell to the ground in unison, not daring to speak.
After the Son of Heaven angrily reprimanded these people, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and turned his head to look at Sun Xu, but when he saw that he didn't care, he knew that he must have an idea. He asked softly, "Marshal Sun, what these people say, are you willing to argue?"
When Sun Xu heard this, he said lightly: "What the prison is saying, but it's just a big deception, don't argue!"
Hearing this, the Qin Tian Supervisor was kneeling on the ground at this moment, and when he heard this, he was very unhappy in his heart, and asked with his hand: "County Lord, if you have something to say, please say it directly, why bother to go through the roundabouts? How can the county be convincing if it is a few words?"
Sun Xu said: "I don't argue with you about celestial phenomena. I only ask you, what do you mean, but do you say that the celestial phenomena represent the will of heaven?"
The supervisor was stunned for a moment, and said: "Naturally, this is the case! The celestial phenomena are like the perception of people, laughter is sunny, sorrow is rain, anger is shaking the mountains, and happiness is all right." ”
"That means that if there is an auspicious omen, it is the will of heaven that allows it?" Sun Xu asked with a smile.
Jian Zheng didn't think about it, and hurriedly said: "That's it!"
"Well, you can watch. Sun Xu said that, smiled coldly, and then raised his head to the sky and said: "Today, Sun Mouguan worships the marshal and is about to go on the expedition." Which of the gods is here? Quickly show up and see me off!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the school field. The rest of the soldiers were even more confused, at this moment, they suddenly felt that this Sun Xu was not as reliable as they thought, and this time they went with him to conquer the summer, I don't know if it was murderous or auspicious.
Just when everyone had their own thoughts and was about to make sarcastic remarks, they heard a few shouts in the air: "Marshal, the little god is here!"
Everyone followed the prestige, and this look was really surprising: they saw four silver shining dragons, cruising in mid-air with their teeth and claws, bowing their heads in the direction of Sun Xu.
When everyone saw this scene, they were shocked and frightened, and they trembled and bowed down, praying for the protection of the dragon king. Even when the Son of Heaven saw it, he was also a little weak-legged, after all, these are all real dragons that only appear in mythology.
The Son of Heaven thought for a while, and was about to bow down, but was dragged by Sun Xu: "Your Majesty is the supreme in the world, they are the Siyu Dragon God, and they don't deserve Your Majesty to perform this great gift!"
Only then did the Son of Heaven think that these four dragon monarchs were so respectful to Sun Xu, how could he, as the Son of Heaven, show weakness. Then he settled down and stood tall.
Sun Xu said to the four dragons: "Where are you waiting for the rain god?"
The four dragons' eyelids were half-drooping, and they said respectfully: "Marshal Hui, my four brothers are the four blasphemous dragon gods of Huai, Ji, Jiang, and He. ”
Sun Xu waved his hand and smiled: "I'm not sorry for others." It's just that today I took command of the expedition, because there were only a few meteors passing by, and the ministers said that it was unlucky, so I invited you to come to the lower realm to rush to Chongxi. ”
Many courtiers were still kneeling on the ground, and they were all silent when they heard this. This person who can make the dragon king come to rejoice, how can there be any anger to heaven and cause bad omen?
When those soldiers heard this, they dispelled the doubts they had in the past few days. They were afraid of following a useless coach and dying in vain. Now that Sun Xu is so miraculous, even the Dragon King can be used for him to drive, such a boss, isn't it a martial arts star that is rare in a hundred years?
When the four dragons heard this, they pierced through the clouds and flew straight to the worship platform. When they arrived at the stage, they scattered to the four corners, and one dragon guarded the other corner.
As the saying goes, "The cloud follows the dragon, and the wind follows the tiger." These four dragons surrounded the worship platform in the middle, and the clouds and mist on the platform were like a fairyland. When the officials saw it, they all threw themselves to the ground, and kept worshipping again and again, praising the reign of the Holy Son of Heaven and the appearance of the Dragon Monarch!
Sun Xu saw that the Son of Heaven was stunned on the spot, and quietly pulled the sleeves of the Son of Heaven's robe.
The Son of Heaven paused slightly, looked at him, and then reacted, and said loudly to everyone in the audience: "Bow to the general!" and turned to face the four dragons. He wanted to see the real dragon for a while, but he was afraid that such a divine object would not be controlled, so he had to laugh and said: "There are four dragon monarchs who have come here, so that we can wait to see Jia Rui, and I will repair the temple and shape the golden body for several dragon monarchs to show gratitude! ”
The four dragon heads and their bodies did not move, but their eyes turned to look at the Son of Heaven and did not react. They wouldn't have moved without Sun Xu's instructions.
Seeing this, Sun Xu said, "Your Majesty asked you to go back, so you can go back." ”
Silong listened to Sun Xu's words, then collected the clouds and mist, said goodbye to Sun Xu, and then took the clouds and drove the fog to his own territory.
The Son of Heaven looked at the direction where the four dragons were far away and was stunned for a long time, and then saw that everyone in the audience was still prostrate on the ground, snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice: "I now order the public power of Guangping County to take charge of the expedition, but do you still have any objections?"
Everyone said in their hearts: Even Long Jun obeyed Sun Xuyan, he came when he wanted to come, and he left when he wanted to, what kind of characters are they. At that moment, they all said neatly: "The Great Song Dynasty will win! The Generalissimo will win!"
It was the Gao Party who was the most disagreeable with the Son of Heaven, and they didn't dare to say anything more at this time.
