Chapter Fifty-Six: The Injustice of the Three Kings

After reading it, the emperor handed the secret letter to Gao Lishi, "General, look, this is Juro's handwriting."

Gao Lishi took a quick look and did not dare to draw any conclusions without authorization. He bowed and said, "Please also get Juro's handwriting to check."

"Yes, let's go get it now." The emperor immediately ordered Gao Lishi to get the previous memorial from Li Linfu.

As soon as Gao Lishi left, none of the three of them spoke, as if they were all settling their thoughts.

The emperor even tensed his face and paced back and forth in the room.

After a long time, Gao Lishi and his two servants walked in quickly and presented piles of calligraphy.

After unfolding them one by one on the table and checking them again, the emperor suddenly said: "It is indeed Juro's handwriting."

In fact, he already knew that the secret letter was Li Linfu's handwriting, so he was just asking for peace of mind after going through all the trouble.

The secret letter made it very clear: the three kings died unjustly, and the people who caused the obstruction were Concubine Wu Hui, Li Linfu, and Yang Hui.

"I didn't expect Li Linfu and Yang Hui to be so bold." The emperor was very angry and called them by their names, but did not mention Concubine Wu Hui.

"Mr. Tongxuan is an expert in this world. Since he knew about this earlier, why didn't you tell me before?" The emperor turned to look at Zhang Guolao.

The emperor has seen Zhang Guo's ability to predict the unknown many times, but he did not tell him about the three kings. He waited until Li Jiuzhou found clues before agreeing. Isn't this deceiving the emperor? The emperor was a little angry, but

And because he is an accomplished person, it is inconvenient for him to have an attack.

Zhang Guolao gently twirled his beard and said: "The time has not come yet. I think it was God who arranged for this young man to come and answer the saint's questions."

The emperor said nothing, turned around and walked outside the door, watching the flowers blooming and falling in the courtyard.

The wind picked up, and the chamberlain next to him immediately came over and wanted to put a cloak on him.

However, he was pushed away hard by the emperor, and the servant was almost pushed down. He staggered a few steps before slowly regaining his footing.

"It's so hateful!" The emperor's furious voice frightened several of the servants to their knees in a hurry, saying that they had not served well enough and had made the saint angry.

Gao Lishi walked out gently, raised his hand, and motioned for the servants to get up.

"I never thought that the Prince Consort would do such a thing." At this point, Gao Lishi was still polite to Yang Hui in his title, but did not mention Li Linfu.

"Not only Yang Hui, Li Linfu is also very hateful." The emperor slapped his hand heavily on the railing.

"Li Jiuzhou." The emperor shouted.

Li Jiuzhou hurriedly walked out.

"This matter..." The emperor turned his back to Li Jiuzhou, hesitated for a moment, and then lowered his voice: "Let's not mention it for now."

Concubine Wu Hui is dead, and Li Linfu has a high position and is difficult to deal with, so let's not talk about it. But Yang Hui, a little consort, dared to participate in the frame-up and murder of the prince, and the emperor did not pursue it.

Li Jiuzhou couldn't refute, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "The saint has his own opinion, and I just obey his orders."

The emperor turned to him and said, "Thankfully you discovered it. It sounds like you have merit."

Gao Lishi echoed: "Although Li Qing is young, he has made many contributions. It is a blessing to have such a minister in the court."

"Well, General Gao is right. I will keep Li Qing's contribution in mind and will reward you all in the future."

I heard footsteps in the distance, and when I looked over, I saw several waiters coming with fruit plates in their hands.

When he came to the front, the leading chamberlain knelt down and said, "Old Li Ge ordered people to send fresh lychees from Lingnan to offer to the saint."

The emperor was so angry that he knocked the fruit plate in the servant's hand to the ground. "He is already in bed, and he still has time to think about such things. Could he be pretending to be ill?"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he knocked the other servants' items off their hands one by one.

Li Jiuzhou smiled secretly: Li Linfu is going to fall out of favor.

Gao Lishi hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Sage calm down, how can he hurt the dragon's body because of such things? Mr. Tongxuan is here, why not ask him to perform a ritual to comfort the spirits of the three kings."

After killing three kings in one day, Li Longji has always felt guilty. After all, they are his three biological sons. Moreover, Li Longji is already old. The older a person gets, the easier it is to recall the past.

At this time, I knew that the three kings had been wronged, and I felt guilty and sad. I thought what Gao Lishi said was reasonable. Everyone was dead, so it would be better to let Zhang Guolao perform a ritual for them.

Zhang Guolao had slowly walked out, "The saint is magnanimous and comforts the souls of the dead. I believe that their souls in heaven will not blame the saint."

The emperor turned his head: "Mr. Tongxuan, are you serious about what you said?"

Zhang Guolao smiled and nodded.

When these words came out of his mouth, the emperor believed them. He had already seen Zhang Guolao's ability, so the immortal's words must be true.

Afraid of disturbing Concubine Yang Guifei, she ordered someone to go and tell her that she asked at Guolao Medicine Hall, so there was no need to be surprised.

Li Jiuzhou huddled aside, holding on to a half-withered old tree, and shook his head helplessly: I didn't expect Li Longji to be so superstitious.

Looking at the smile on Zhang Guolao's face, the emperor's mouth showed a smile that was mixed with sadness, relief, and wistfulness. When he was about to arrange the altar, he suddenly remembered something.

"Zhenren Luo is also in the capital at this time. Why don't we invite him to perform rituals together? Maybe we can resolve the grievances." Speaking of Luo Gongyuan, the emperor was very pleased.

Gao Lishi added: "Vajra Tripitaka, the eminent monk of the Lion Kingdom, is also in the capital."

Li Jiuzhou thought to himself that there are so many talented people, there are so many Buddhist and Taoist masters, so he stepped forward and said: "I have heard that the efforts of all the masters are unfathomable, and I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see all the masters today."

The emperor became even more interested and wanted to let Li Jiuzhou, a person who did not believe in Buddhism, see the matter. Without asking Zhang Guolao's opinion, he immediately ordered several experts to come over.

Seeing Zhang Guolao's serious face, the emperor hurriedly asked: "I wonder if Mr. Tongxuan's elixir can be successful?"

Zhang Guolao said unhurriedly: "My Nine-turn Great Returning Pill will take time to complete, so the saint must not be in a hurry."

The emperor asked no more questions.

After a while, Luo Gongyuan and Vajra Tripitaka arrived and gave the emperor a simple salute.

Although King Kong Tripitaka is a foreigner and has stayed in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, he speaks Chinese fluently.

The emperor then set up a seat in the Guolao Medicine Hall. Although he was an emperor, he seemed much more pious in front of Buddhist and Taoist masters.

The three of them gathered together in one place. Although it wasn't full of excitement, the scene was a bit awkward.

The emperor stood in the middle and said: "The three of them are all accomplished Taoists in this world. I have a special intention. I hope that the three of you can do something for me to save the souls of the dead. I just don't know if it will work."

When he said this, the three of them also revealed their intentions.

This is interesting. Li Jiuzhou also wants to see who is more powerful among these three current masters.

So three altars were set up first, and the three people's methods were different.

The emperor's face swept away the previous gloom and showed a smile. Perhaps he really believed that through such a ritual, those who died unjustly could go on their way with peace of mind.
