Ban Fang

Chapter 60
Looking at Yan Ji's calm response to my hand, Emperor Yong De asked:

"Is it right or wrong that I punish Concubine Yue?"

"Then you have to ask first, what does the Holy Master think of human life? Is it a broom or a broom?" Of course Yan Ji knew that the man was soft-hearted.

Maybe he was angry in his heart, angry that she had treated the imperial concubine he had cherished for many years.

"Why is there such a question?" Emperor Yongde felt the illusion that he was going to block his heart again.

Yan Yan pursed her lips, gave Li Ying a reproachful look, and said, "I didn't want to smear your mother and son's ears. Since I still want to ask, I'll say it."

She raised her eyes to look at Emperor Yongde and asked into his heart: "Why do you think I want to set up a situation and choose Concubine Yue Gui? Or do you think I like to harm innocent people?"

Emperor Yongde couldn't answer for a while, only to see Li Ying whispering: "This is my fault. The matter of the harem has never been revealed to the emperor. Does the sage like the dazzling peony that blooms for a long time in the Jade Pool Hall?"

Yan Ji sighed slightly after Emperor Yongde nodded, "Human life is the best food for raising flowers."

"What?" Emperor Yongde's eyes widened in astonishment.

"There are countless corpses of palace maids under the garden of Yaoguang Palace." Li Yingguang thought it was a chill.

Emperor Yongde took two steps back in horror and re-examined his mother's words. Is he the only one who didn't know?

Since childhood, his mother taught him that human beings are created equal, but he was lucky enough to join the royal family, so he could not worry about food and clothing.

After he became emperor, he told him that he should respect life even more when he was born as a human being and devote himself to the royal family.

In the process of growing up, he had never seen his mother treat the palace staff harshly, or smash her palace at every turn. In this respect, Concubine Yue Gui was indeed very different from his mother.

"Your Majesty, why did the third prince of Nanchu easily know the location of Sitianjian's family?" Yan Jike's beautiful face continued to ask, "Your Majesty, do you know where Sitianjian is located?".

Emperor Yongde did not answer immediately.

"I think what the sage knows is that the military power of the imperial city is in the hands of Duke Wei, and it can't be worse for Concubine Yue. The two brothers Li Cheng still have a breath, so they have to temporarily put down the cause of Queen Li's death, right?"

Emperor Yongde responded naively: "Yes. But I don't know that Concubine Yue Gui is like this."

"It was the cowardice of the sage that killed Empress Li, and it was the sage who gave them the opportunity to attack Brother Li Cheng." Yan Ji said bluntly.

"Bold!" Emperor Yongde was filled with anger at the words.

Yan Yan smiled and said, "The sage has boldly called someone, the girl is just a passerby who sees the context clearly, dare to ask the sage, at this time when the war is not yet raging, does Duke Wei's move count as collaborating with the enemy?"

She was just a passerby. If Li Ying hadn't been involved, she would have left with a lot of baggage.

Emperor Yongde was choked up again by the question, this girl really has nothing to worry about.

Li Ying raised her eyes and asked, "Does the emperor know where Eunuch Sun is from?"

Although Yan Jing came to the house voluntarily to seek abuse, she had to pay the price if she dared to hurt her best friend!
"I've never seen him come to serve." How could Emperor Yongde pay attention to such details.

"He's from the Duke of Wei's mansion, did the sage find out that he was cleansed when he was an adult?"

"How did you find out?" Emperor Yongde looked back at Yan Ji in surprise and speechless, what else could the little girl find out?
"His feminine voice was faked. After he hurt people and saw blood, he couldn't help but get excited, revealing his original low-pitched male voice."

Seeing that Emperor Yongde was still thinking about it, Yan Yu asked again, "Could the sage be aware that Eunuch Sun has an Adam's apple that symbolizes a man? That's why he couldn't serve in front of the imperial court."

These are also the details that were discovered after the fight today, and can also explain why Sun Gonggong has such a vicious and cruel side.

The little father-in-laws who have been cleansed since childhood do not have the influence of male hormones during adolescence, and there will be no voice change or Adam's apple.

After he became an adult, he was a martial artist and was chosen as a pure father-in-law. How could he not be gloomy in his heart?

It was a great fortune that I didn't do anything wrong to Concubine Yue Gui before entering the palace!
Pity!There are countless dead souls under the flowers in the Yaoguang Temple.

Willful tolerance is also murder, let alone such cruel mercy.

"Don't rush to think about how to punish the saint, let's see after the sacrifice to heaven!" Yan Ji stopped Emperor Yongde's hesitant words and continued, "What happened today must not be rumored, and before the sacrifice to heaven is completed, it must not be leaked news."

All this is just the beginning.

Just now, the entrance and exit of the Yaoguang Temple have been completely blocked, and not even a mosquito has been released, and it is claimed that Concubine Yue Gui has devoted herself to fasting and refused to open the door.

Even the placement of Eunuch Sun was properly completed before dawn.

Yan Ji only felt that she was making trouble before the sun came up... that's great!
……

Yongcheng Suburbs

Emperor Yongde chose a place for the sacrifice on the outskirts of the capital, and built a altar several feet high on the ground. As the time for the sacrifice to the sky was getting closer and closer, but the emperor had not arrived, the civil and military officials began to be disturbed. .

"Yu'er!" Wei Guogong walked towards Li Yu, the eldest prince in a mian suit, in the dark crowd. He was satisfied with his grandson's lofty and lofty grandson, which made him involuntarily burst into a arrogant smile.

"Grandfather!" Li Yu bowed respectfully.

Wei Guogong stroked his goatee and patted Li Yu's shoulder with relief: "Good boy! Do your best for the sage, and don't let down the expectations of the mother and concubine."

"Grandfather! Yu'er remembers it!" Li Yu looked at the direction of the city gate worriedly. He hadn't seen the imperial car approaching for a long time. He couldn't hide his worry and asked, "I don't know why I haven't seen my father's imperial car yet?"

Wei Guogong snorted coldly and said disapprovingly: "I know that sooner or later the queen will be abolished, and I don't want to come."

Li Yu thought to himself, knowing that his father was not such a temper.

"Can grandfather have news about his mother in the past two days?" Li Yu went directly to the suburbs today for the purpose of offering sacrifices to the heavens, and did not enter the palace first to greet his mother and concubine.

"I only came to report yesterday. Even though the saint is fasting, he went to stay in your mother's palace." Wei Guogong was still excited about the report from the secret spy last night.

The daughter is a noble concubine, and the grandson is the eldest son of the emperor, so I hope to get the queen's position in one fell swoop, so that the grandson can successfully acquire the direct lineage.

It has been a whole year since the queen who appeared out of thin air finally had the opportunity to get rid of the demon queen justifiably. Just thinking about it, Duke Wei was surprisingly happy, and it was windy when he walked.

Li Yu frowned, there was still a moment before the time to sacrifice to the sky. The jade silk, Jinshu, and Zhuwen that were to be offered to the sky had already been prepared on the altar, waiting for the arrival of the saint.

However, they just can't wait for the Holy One...

When everyone started whispering, Yao Xiang and the other princes also leaned over at this time.

"King Yujun, did the Sage entrust you with the sacrifice to the heavens?" Yao Xiang did not believe that the Sacred Master would entrust the sacrifice to the heavens to a child who had no experience and was weak.

But when he looked back at the absurdity of a year ago, his heart was filled again.

He didn't go to court for six months, the days when he was submerged in memorials
It's not really coming, is it?

"Yao Xiang, the royal father did not entrust me." Li Yu sincerely resigned.

How could this be? ! ?Everyone had question marks on their faces.

What about the saint?It's not the first time to sacrifice to the sky, and such a thing has never happened!

Just when everyone was at a loss, the familiar figure of the couple appeared in plain clothes and covered their feet. They were being escorted by the Imperial City Guard. Just outside the city gate, the Queen was bowing at three steps and kowtows at nine steps, slowly. Come to the altar.

Many people wept with tears in their eyes to discourage the queen from continuing to worship, and followed the queen to kowtow.

The demon empress in the eyes of the courtiers led the people to kneel to pray for the sky, and this scene stunned everyone.

The queen's plain white tallow clothes have been dyed with red plums, and the straw shoes are even more blood-stained in the streets. Walking on the loess in the suburbs, blood-stains are mixed with soil ash.

The wound gradually expanded during the pulling, leaving more blood stains on the loess.

Suddenly, the bright sunshine was gradually obscured, and the darkness gradually enveloped the earth.

Knowing that the solar eclipse was coming, Li Ying bowed her head to the altar more reverently.

Among the crying people, some people were not afraid of the tengu eating the sun, and continued to cry and ask the queen to take care of themselves.

When the mother of the dynasty prayed for the rain for the people, and when the day dog ​​eclipsed the sun, the people had forgotten the fear of the solar eclipse, and only remembered to accompany the queen to kowtow to the altar.

Even though there was a lot of slander and criticism about the mother of the country before, when she saw that the mother of the country was willing to bow down and pray for the rain for the people of the Lebanese people, all the quarrels were put aside.

Li Ying came to the altar, and was assisted by the attendant to cleanse her face and change her clothes. The pain from the kowtow did not become heavy, and her elegant demeanor was still like a frightful wandering beauty.

That is innate nobility and grace, even if there is no palace decoration, Suzhen's hair can set off the grace of the mother of the country.

The civil and military officials were stunned by this scene, and no one who had raised their daughters for half a lifetime could match the graceful bearing of the queen in front of them. Who said that the queen was a demon empress?
Li Ying calmly turned her head to look back, and shook hands with the people following her to comfort her: "Don't panic! When this palace is on the altar, the day will see the light again, and the long-awaited rain will come."

Those warm whispers that can appease people's hearts have successfully conquered the people around them.

For the demon queen surrounded by the common people, and the courtiers who were isolated by Jinwuwei, it was as if they were watching the play and could not intervene.

Sure enough, after only kneeling halfway to the altar, the sky gradually returned to a clear sky, and he was offering a jade and silk instead of the emperor.

After half an hour of repeating the ceremony, the sky was gradually darkening, dark clouds covered the sun, and cool winds were blowing everywhere. This was a precursor to rain, the people began to cheer, and the courtiers sank their faces.

Before Zhu Wen had finished her prayers, the rain was slowly falling. Li Ying worshipped Zhu Wen with both hands on the altar, and bowed deeply without getting up for a long time.

The rain gradually changed from silk rain to bean-sized raindrops, soaking the sacrificial text on Li Ying's hand, and the ink stains made it impossible to see the content.

At this time, Li Ying couldn't tell whether it was the tears on her face or the rain. She was overwhelmed by the success of Yan Ji's calculation again.

The pain and suffering from the court bow to the altar were completely put down at this time.

Li Ying held the sacrificial text and looked at the cheering people in the audience, showing a majestic smile.

O her people!
Since I came to this different world, for the first time, I have been moved and delighted to benefit the people.

No more grievances!No more suffering!
　Good morning!Although it was still a pain, but Li Ying acridine who is no longer aggrieved!
