Chapter 16: The Song of Merchant Rong (1)
Li Jing and his general, Li Si, the two of them rushed to the Taishi Mansion in Fengyun Town during the day, and found an inn to rest at night. Whenever there is a rest, Li Jing listens to the teachings of the musicians. Because of the reward of the previous task, he has already roughened the rhythm of the sound, and the Five Elements Escape Technique has also entered the room. Because on the way, he also had to practice with the musicians and comprehend the heavens and the earth, so he slowed down. When he was in Chentangguan, he and the musicians were always thinking of a way to solve the root bones. There was only one thing before them, and they were sanctified in the flesh through this great tribulation of God. And this time going to the court song is their first step, to eliminate the cause and effect with the Shang Dynasty, and get a free body.
The sun had set, and the two of them went into an inn to rest as usual.
Li Jing wrote a letter to his uncle Shang Rong a few days ago. The letter said that he would return to Chaoge to receive the title of marquis in a few days, and said that he had something to discuss with his uncle. Counting the days, I think my uncle has already received the letter.
Coincidentally, at dusk that day, the messenger happened to deliver the letter to the Taishi's Mansion. The old prime minister Shang Rong was very happy after receiving the letter, and even took a sip at dinner. The old housekeeper was also very happy, because he rarely saw his master smiling, and Shang Rong was happy, so he was happy.
After dinner, it suddenly snowed outside. The snow in Chentangguan is a bit biting on the body, but Fengyun Town is different, the snow there is soft. Shang Rong put on a coat and carried a lantern to enjoy the snow in the courtyard. Then I felt a poem and chanted a poem:
"A few years of sin in the palm of silk, a piece of Dan's heart is not annihilated.
Fubi knows that he is for the country and insists on serving private people without land.
I know that the demon is born in the palace, causing Li Min to turn into a ghost.
It's a pity that the wild minister's heart is Weique, and the beggar has no plan to knock Fengchen. ”
After that, there is endless sighing.
Just as the old prime minister turned to enter the house, he suddenly heard a young man outside the door ask, "Is there anyone in the house?"
"Who is it?" Shang Rong asked.
"I'm a passer-by, because it's getting late, do you want to stay with you for a night?"
Yes, it's getting late and it's snowing, so let's let him stay in the house for one night. Shang Rong thought as he stepped forward and opened the door. Because it was getting late, and the old man's eyes were not very neat, he was a little familiar with the man's speech, so he asked, "I heard that your accent seems to come from Chaoge." ”
The man nodded and said, "Yes, it's from Chaoge." ”
"Oh, are you inside the city or outside the city?"
"Well, my family lives in the city. ”
"Since you live in the city, I have something to ask you about when you come here. ”
The young man took two steps forward, looked up, and blurted out: "Ah! ”
Shang Rong heard that this was an acquaintance, but why couldn't I tell who it was. Seeing that no one came out, he took two steps forward to take a closer look, and Shang Rong hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, why are you here alone? ”
It turned out that the young boy was the crown prince Yin Jiao of the current dynasty.
The old prime minister welcomed Yin Jiao to the living room, and said: "Your Royal Highness is the crown prince, where can you come here alone, but has something happened to Chaoge City?" Your Highness, don't panic, please sit down first, I will listen to you carefully. ”
The prince Yin Jiao is only a teenager, and his body is covered with dust and vegetables, which shows that he has suffered a lot. As soon as I heard the old prime minister's caring words, I stayed with tears in my eyes, as if I wanted to cry out all my grievances.
"The demon woman of Nadaji designed to frame my mother, saying that my mother sent someone to assassinate my father. My father, who was gullible and could not distinguish between truth and falsehood, ordered my mother's eyes to be gouged out. Poor my mother was so humiliated that she killed herself. I couldn't get angry, and I was going to kill Daji with my sword to avenge my mother. As a result, my good father, the king, actually ordered me and my brother Yin Hong to be killed, and there were two great generals in the court, named Fang Bi Fang Congee. It was with the help of two generals that I escaped here. "I cried even more.
After Shang Rong listened to Yin Jiao's words, he was like being struck by lightning. The purpose of digging out the two sides was none other than Empress Jiang, who was in charge of the Third Palace! She suddenly shouted: "How dare that faint monarch do this! How dare he do such a thing of killing his wife! I know that he is tyrannical, but who knows that this faint monarch is tyrannical to this point, so annihilating humanity, and the three platforms are lost! Niangniang actually died tragically, and the two highnesses were exiled from Xu Tan. Then why did the hundreds of officials in the court stammer, why didn't they make a mistake!"
Shang Rong was very heartbroken, the monarch is not a monarch or a minister, that is the queen, this is the prince, and the tiger poison does not eat children! It is because the king is tyrannical and the courtiers spare their lives that the government is so reversed.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, wait until tomorrow the old minister will enter the court song with you, directly advise the Son of Heaven, change the course, and save the trouble. ”
