Chapter 148 Black and white reversed, referring to chickens as phoenixes
The hundreds of officials sitting in the Chengqing Hall and the people who went to Beijing to complain were thinking that Shen Tucheng had confessed and that there was a confession from Shen Tucheng's eldest disciple. When King Jing couldn't escape, he suddenly shouted.
Everyone was shocked.
Everyone looked for the sound and saw a seat at the back of the table.
A middle-aged official stood up cautiously. Judging from his position, he should be from the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
"Who are you? What do you have to say?" Emperor Shu leaned slightly to his side, looked at this person with squinted eyes, and asked.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I am Yao Shuhai, the Censor of Zuo Qiandu of the Imperial Procuratorate!"
Yao Shuhai, whose face had not fully healed from the injury, took the courage to kneel in the center of the hall. After kneeling down, he raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Highness Prince Jing, who cares about all the people and is a great talent for the country, will definitely have nothing to do with this matter."
"oh?"
The expression on Emperor Shu's face was unclear, but he glanced at Prince Jing from the corner of his eye... Could this person have been arranged by Prince Jing?
Prince Jing looked confused and slowly frowned.
Who are you?
Do I know you?
You came out to exonerate me?
No need!... Earlier, King Jing and Shen Tucheng had expected that today's scene would happen, so the two of them had already discussed it in private. After the incident, Shen Tucheng would bear all the charges, as long as it was not a drag.
King Jing, after King Jing escapes, he will be able to operate.
Just Yao Shuhai who suddenly jumped out?
Shen Tucheng looked at Prince Jing... Your Highness, is this your person?
Prince Jing shook his head.
All the eyes of the audience were focused on Yao Shuhai.
Emperor Shu thought he was from Prince Jing, so he coughed slightly and said, "Yao Qing, come forward and speak."
"well."
Yao Shuhai knelt forward like a pug, then straightened up, straightened his clothes, cleared his throat and said:
"Your Majesty, I privately believe that His Highness Prince Jing has nothing to do with this matter. Although His Highness Prince Jing has good relations with Shentu City, he is limited to his private Taoist magical powers. His Highness Prince Jing is by no means the person behind the scenes. His Highness Prince Jing is the
Being bitten for no reason.”
Baiguan frowned slightly. He knew what Yao Shuhai was holding back when he opened his mouth. He only wanted to stand in line at this time because he wanted Prince Jing to accept his favor. But this matter is not that simple. If you can't provide real evidence, then jump out.
Coming out to clarify for Prince Jing will only make the picture darker and darker.
Emperor Shu calmly said: "Yao Qing, why do you say this?"
In Emperor Shu's heart, he believed that Yao Shuhai was King Jing's back-up man.
Once the situation goes against Prince Jing, Yao Shuhai will jump out.
In his heart, Emperor Shu actually didn't want anything to happen to Prince Jing.
Therefore, he favored his younger brother from the beginning, otherwise, he would not have rushed to kill Shentu City and silence him.
It was just that he was stopped midway by Xun Yijian.
Now, since Yao Shuhai wants to clarify for Prince Jing, Emperor Shu might as well give him a chance to speak.
Yao Shuhai said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have been to Juxian Town recently!"
As soon as these words came out, a stone stirred up a thousand waves!
Has he been to Juxian Town?
He knows about Zhennanguan.
Yao Shuhai spoke in his mind and continued: "Reporting to your Majesty, I have been to Juxian Town recently to visit my hometown and visit relatives. I walked with Lord Shentu on the way..."
"Not only do I think His Highness Prince Jing has nothing to do with this matter, but I also think that Lord Shentu has been slandered by villains."
After saying that, Yao Shuhai glared at everyone in Juxian Town fiercely.
"Your Majesty, what I saw and heard in Juxian Town is shocking. There are so many monks in Juxian Town, and there are monks with swords almost everywhere. The people abandon their fields and do not cultivate. The small Juxian Town is a small place.
There are nearly a hundred sects, so many that the number of people cannot be counted..."
"Juxian Town is like this, so why not Wushan County..."
Yao Shuhai knew what he should say and what he shouldn't say. Once this was done, the Yao family soared into the sky.
Since ancient times, the rulers of dynasties have not wanted to have too many potential resistance forces under their rule, such as sects, practitioners... These people are powerful and unstable factors, which are extremely detrimental to the rule of the dynasty.
Yao Shuhai just wanted to poke the Emperor Shu's heart and poke his sore spot.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Emperor Shu couldn't help but stand up:
"really?"
"Small Juxian Town, hundreds of sects?"
Yao Shuhai nodded: "It's absolutely true! I saw it with my own eyes."
Yao Shuhai said again: "Your Majesty, please see the injury on my face. In the past few days, I went back to my hometown to visit my relatives. If I disagreed, the local monks beat me."
"It doesn't matter if they beat the ministers, but they are beating the court's face, and they are beating your Majesty's face~"
"Yao Shuhai, fuck your mother!" Elder Ye suddenly stood up from the crowd, pointed at Yao Shuhai and said angrily: "The injuries on your face were clearly caused by Shentu City. You relied on your official authority to return to Juxian
I want your son to marry my eldest daughter by force."
"If Master Jiang hadn't scared you, my eldest lady would have been ruined by your son for the rest of her life."
Yao Shuhai was not afraid at all. He stood up and said to the officials:
"Everyone, listen, listen, Yao is not talented, but he is also the imperial censor of the capital, and a family of officials. His Juxiong sect is just a small local sect. Is it wronging them to marry their daughter into my Yao family?
Already?"
"You still look down on my son?"
Yao Shuhai continued to talk: "Everyone, we are not as good as the ones from a small sect in their place~"
The scene exploded instantly.
The hot-tempered general stood up and shouted: "It's unreasonable. We, our generation, have made great contributions and fought bloody battles to gain an official position, but you actually..."
Another person said: "You are going to rebel. With so many monks gathered in this small Juxian Town, it is obvious that you have evil intentions."
"Your Majesty, you must be severely punished!"
"..."
The wind direction on the field... suddenly changed.
With his sharp mouth, Yao Shuhai successfully instigated conflicts between officials and princes and Juxian Town.
The Emperor of Shu thought, if it weren't for what Yao Shuhai said today, he wouldn't know it yet.
The territory of Western Shu is already overrun with monks?
If this continues, can he, the Emperor of Shu, still be able to sit peacefully?
Prince Jing rubbed his chin and thought, this Yao Shuhai looks pretty good, but he is actually a good bitch.
"Also, why didn't they just give in to the attack?"
Yao Shuhai walked up to the chief disciple of Shentu City and said, "Say, you were not beaten into a move. Now that His Majesty is backing you, you can feel free to speak boldly."
"yes."
Hearing this, the bodies of Sheriff Yan and others suddenly softened.
Prince Jing suddenly laughed, laughed heartily, and laughed wildly!
He is from the royal family, the Western Shu royal family!
Today, the Emperor of Shu has no heirs, only his younger brother.
A hundred years after the Emperor of Shu, the throne of Shu will be his!
By then, he will be the king of a country, the Son of Heaven, the supreme Son of Heaven!
These ants, a mob, actually want to use those more than 20,000 lives, which are not worth mentioning, to bring down the future emperor of Shu?
dream?
Simply ridiculous!
After the laughter, a stern look flashed across Prince Jing's face. He took a few steps forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have something else I don't know whether to say or not."
"explain."
Prince Jing pointed at the group of ants and said:
"Your Majesty, I suspect that these unscrupulous people want to harm me! There is no evidence, and they are beaten into submission. They actually slandered me and killed more than 20,000 people. Their intentions are to be punished!"
"The governor of Wushan County made a grand statement, indulged the sect under his rule and caused disasters, accumulated military advantages, and planned to rebel."
Everyone's body trembled violently.
Yao Shuhai immediately stepped forward and said: "What His Highness Prince Jing said is absolutely true. Your Majesty, we must thoroughly investigate these unscrupulous people!"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the guilty minister has something to say."
Shen Tucheng suddenly spoke, and no one knew what he was going to do.
Emperor Shu looked up at him and said, "Say."
Shentu City knelt on the ground and said sternly: "Actually, the massacre at Zhennanguan was not the sinner's original intention. It was the Wushan County Sheriff who made a big statement and signaled the sinner to do this. He promised the sinner great benefits."
"Yan Daohong intended to use the evil soul-devouring beads to advance and killed 20,000 monks in Juxian Town. He is the chief culprit."
Shen Tucheng suddenly stabbed him in the back and identified Governor Yan.
It caught everyone off guard.
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunder.
boom!
All the officials were talking about it.
He only left a message and the county guard and others were dumbfounded.
black?
white?
Can it be turned upside down instantly?
The Emperor of Shu immediately slammed the table and became furious: "Wushan County Governor Dao Hong refined the evil soul-eating beads, and the evidence is conclusive, killing 20,000 monks in Juxian Town and killing nine tribes!"
Sheriff Yan, the governor of a county who had been busy working for Wushan all his life, bent down at this moment and suddenly aged more than ten years.
Xun Yijian's knuckles holding the wine jug turned white and his lips trembled...
…
Late at night, the Great Zhou Envoy and the inn were brightly lit.
Seeing that Wei Wushuang wanted to go out, Lu Ximing, who was sitting behind a low table and sipping tea, waved his sleeves and robe, and the door slammed shut. Wei Wushuang stood at the door, clenching his fists tightly, with anger on his face:
"Why did sir stop me at the banquet?"
"Why not?" Lu Ximing glanced at it and said.
Wei Wushuang turned around, stared at Lu Ximing, and said angrily: "I don't believe that sir can't see that the blood on Prince Jing's body is lingering, which is the symptom of devouring the soul-devouring beads. Although he tried his best to suppress the breath with magic weapons, a little bit of it was still exposed.
, he was responsible for the death of those 20,000 people."
"So what if it is? So what if it's not." Lu Ximing put down the cup in his hand, put his hands into his sleeves, looked at Wei Wushuang and said calmly: "You are the envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, this is someone else's housework..."
"But King Jing, if anyone finds it, he will be killed! Isn't it?" Wei Wushuang asked in return.
Lu Ximing looked at Wei Wushuang and said with a smile: "Now, I finally know why His Majesty regards you as his right-hand man..."
"Um?"
"It won't work anywhere else. I can live with this heart." After that, Lu Ximing pushed the things on the table: "You can take these to the palace on my behalf."
Wei Wushuang walked over and took a casual look.
The next moment, his eyes suddenly widened, like bull's eyes.
Lu Ximing coughed twice, cleared his throat and said, "When you meet Emperor Shu in the palace, you must be more unreasonable."
Wei Wushuang patted his chest: "Don't worry, I'm good at this!"
…
Royal study room.
Emperor Shu looked at a letter of credence on the desk. Before he finished reading it, a voice suddenly sounded from the room:
"These are the conditions of my court, please think about it..."
The Emperor of Shu raised his head and looked at this person. Wei Wushuang was leading several envoys, standing opposite him with their legs spread out and arms folded across their chests.
He dared to call the king of a country "you". Emperor Shu's body trembled with anger and his lips trembled.
Wei Wushuang stood in the imperial study room, stretched out his little finger to pick out his ears, pointed at a reed chicken running randomly on the ground, and said without changing his expression: "This is a phoenix. It is a gift from your majesty to your court. We must reciprocate the courtesy."
, Western Shu cut off a county in Wushan and gave it to me, the Great Zhou Dynasty..."
Emperor Shu's eyelids trembled: "Phoenix?"
Giggle.
The reed chicken flaps its wings and runs very fast.
It didn't expect that it would turn into a phoenix smoothly?
His net worth has skyrocketed, and he is worth an entire county.
Wei Wushuang frowned and said very seriously: "It's the Phoenix. If you don't believe it, millions of our border troops can come here and prove it to you one by one."
Although Wei Wushuang wanted to laugh, he held back.
Emperor Shu was so angry that he couldn't even say anything bad. He stood up and trembled: "You, you... you are blackmailing."
"Okay, then, since you don't agree, in three days, our millions of border troops from the Great Zhou Dynasty will no longer be able to hold down the sword on their waist."
After saying that, Wei Wushuang led his men and walked out in a swaggering manner. Emperor Shu, who was sitting behind the desk, closed his eyes tightly and the credentials in his hand were almost torn to pieces.
threaten!
A naked threat!
But what can he do?
Millions of border troops of the Great Zhou Dynasty were on the border, and they could destroy the borders of Western Shu in an instant.
Before Wei Wushuang could go far, he heard the sound of the desk falling over from the imperial study room behind him, and Wei Wushuang raised the corners of his mouth proudly.
Referring to a chicken as a phoenix... it should be a good story. This chapter has been completed!
