Chapter 216 No.20 Scene Eight

Until the ninth day of June, when the Zen throne was pawned, none of the officials and attendants in Yongyang Palace realized that there had been a fire in the Wannian Palace that disappeared without a trace.None of the servants dared to easily break into the main hall that had been arranged for the grand ceremony and left to be opened by Gao Li's personal order when he ascended the throne, so they would not be able to find any traces of dead or injured guards in the hall.And Kun Jie and Gao Li, who fought in the scuffle that day, disappeared as if they had never appeared before.

The officials, big and small, who suddenly didn't know what to do, had to open the gate of the palace first, and arranged for the people to enter the palace to watch the ceremony step by step according to the originally scheduled time.

In the corner of the time, there was less than an hour left before the auspicious noon time that was originally set.In Yongyang Palace, all the golden scorpions, chariots, guards of honor, and carriages related to the grand ceremony have also been prepared.The followers holding the flags, gongs, cards and fans have been waiting in line in front of the bedroom since dawn, but it wasn't until the eunuch who served the bedroom rushed out that they realized that Gao Li hadn't returned all night, and no one knew where he was. I don't know where to find it.

Right now, in front of the Wannian Hall, on the Panlongyuan, where the grand ceremony is just about to begin, banners are unfurled and people are crowded.Thousands of Jinwu holding axes, axes and golden hammers are neatly lined up around the square, forming an airtight human wall.In the center of the square, a wooden high platform rises from the ground, almost level with the main hall of the Wannian Hall, which is like a mountain.On the high platform, the wine and wine used for sacrifices to the Zen seat have already been slaughtered and cooked, and the bells, tripods and Yi vessels, and the crowns and robes are also listed on the case.

However, there is only deathly silence in the air, and there is no sound.Not to mention the noise, even if someone wanted to cough, they carefully covered their mouth and nose with their sleeves.And this weird atmosphere made everyone present feel a little bit wrong.

The weather after the beginning of summer made the gold medalists on the sidelines sweat through their heavy clothes, but none of them dared to act rashly.I had to stretch my neck a little, hoping that some cold wind would blow in through the gap in the neckline of the armor, bringing out some hot and humid air.

Some of them couldn't bear it any longer, and turned their heads to look at Wen Boyun, the great Sikong who was in charge of presiding over the ceremony in a corner of the square.However, Da Sikong, who was nearly [-] years old, also raised his neck and feet, looking into the depths of the palace.

Several internal eunuchs came rushing from a distance, and some of them ran so fast that they fell to the ground hard, and then got up quickly.He stopped in front of Wen Boyun, gasping for breath, but only exchanged a few words, then turned around and ran away, but still failed to find the slightest trace of Gao Li.

Finally, a clear voice suddenly broke the prolonged silence.That is the last blood of the Baijiang clan, and it is also Bai Jiangxing who is about to hand over the imperial power in his hands today:

"The sun has already started to go west, why hasn't it started yet? I'm already hungry, I want lunch, I want lunch!"

While yelling, the young foolish emperor got out of the stuffy car, ignoring the nurse behind him trying to stop him, but broke free from her hand and rushed straight to the high platform in the middle of Panlongyuan Next, take off the well-dressed outfit one by one.

Seeing this, Wen Boyun immediately made a look to the left and right, and ordered them to quickly bring Bai Jiangxing to the sidelines.And he himself walked up to him with already staggering steps, and comforted him with kind words:

"Your Majesty, you can only have lunch after the ceremony is over. Didn't we agree a long time ago?"

But the stupid emperor on the opposite side didn't listen at all, his temper became more and more violent, and finally he cried out with a "wow", and then rolled around, laying on the ground and refusing to get up, yelling loudly:

"Didn't you say before that as long as I become the emperor, I will have endless delicious food in my life! But today, I suddenly won't let me cook, and won't give me food! You are all liars, a bunch of big liars!"

These words immediately caused quite a commotion among the people who came to watch the ceremony.The whispered discussions at the beginning gradually intensified among the crowd, one ebbed and the other grew, and the shouting could not be stopped anymore.Wen Boyun's complexion changed drastically immediately, and as a last resort, he had to order the eunuch to take Bai Jiangxing down first to eat some snacks to satisfy his hunger.

Since Grand Situ Duan Hongfang was slapped to death in public above the main hall, officials of all sizes never dared to touch Gao Li again.Now this Da Sikong is just praying secretly in his heart, hoping that today's somewhat embarrassing scene will not be blamed on himself.

Ning Yue, who was wearing a wedding dress and a crown, was also sitting in a carriage by the side of the court.At this time, the girl's forehead and nose were dripping with fine beads of sweat, but she didn't have the heart to wipe it off. She just kept fiddling with the veil she was holding in her hand, secretly rejoicing that the vicious man who threatened to behead himself in public today It will be too late.Otherwise, it is very likely that she has been sentenced to death, decapitated, and died on the spot.

However, while the red-haired girl was rejoicing, she was also a little worried—because if the other party didn't come, Feng Weishu would definitely not come.During these days, the two carefully considered and revised their escape plan, which seemed to be in vain.

On the other side of Panlongyuan, the rulers of Huaiyou, Nanhua, Yu, Dun, and Cheng, who had previously sent envoys, all sat on a viewing platform guarded by elite soldiers.However, the purpose of their trip was not as simple as simply bowing their heads to surrender.

Right now, the space of the viewing platform is limited, and the rulers of the vassal states with their own ulterior motives cannot be separated from each other by a long distance.Although they seemed happy and happy on the surface, the guards they brought with them tensed their muscles and held the weapons in their hands creaking softly, guarding against possible attacks from each other at any time.

The first one who couldn't sit still was Tan Cong, the lord of Nanhua.At this time, Nanhua has annexed the Hejian Corridor area that originally belonged to Chengguo, and the neighboring countries on the left and right do not have enough strength to compete with it. :
"Why, doesn't the Son of Heaven want a Zen seat? The new emperor just left us here like this, it's too arrogant!"

"Is this the attitude that a minister should have? Although the new emperor has not ascended the throne, he has been in charge of the government for many years. Now it is only a little bit late, but you don't even have the patience to wait!"

Lu Yong, the lord of the Dun Kingdom, and Yin Wuyi, the new lord of the Cheng Kingdom, refuted it in public.After the Cheng Ye war, not only did the two countries fail to gain any benefits, but they were robbed by Wei Liang and Nan Hua, and they pressed on every step of the way.Now the reason why the two countries would swear allegiance to Gao Li was to a large extent to discuss an explanation in front of the new emperor.

"No matter how much the two of you plead in front of the new emperor, he will definitely not favor you! But today, Yubei, Weiliang, Peng, Ye and other countries did not attend the ceremony. If the emperor wants to secure the throne, he can only rely on A powerful vassal state, not some begging dogs in the water!"

Qin Cong laughed out loud, mocking the two monarchs in front of him.No one can bear such humiliation.Even though Lu Yongdang jumped violently, he pulled out the short knife from his waist and rushed towards the opponent:
"My Dun country has been bullied by Nanhua for a hundred years, and I have had grievances for generations! I will break up with you here today!"

Qin Cong didn't panic when he saw this, and even drew his weapon from the waist of the guard next to him, and took a countermeasure:
"Exactly! If I can kill you with my own hands today, Dun Guo's defense line on the east bank of the Zuojiang River will definitely be demoralized. At that time, I will personally lead the army and go straight to Hejian!"

The viewing platform suddenly became a battlefield where the two kings clashed.The guards on the side wanted to step forward to stop them, but they had no choice but to move because of the small space.Only Jing Wen, a major in Yu Guoguo, stretched his arms between the two, and persuaded him:

"Oh, forget it. Could it be that there is no king in the four seas? I'm just a vassal of the Dasheng Dynasty. I just want to assist the new emperor with all my strength. Why should I fight with my life?"

"Dasheng is about to disappear! The little country of Yu lives in a place full of miasma. In my eyes, you are no different from Dongli in Yizhou, and you are still shy as a vassal!" Get out of here quickly, or you will be chopped off too!"

Tan Cong yelled angrily and kicked the opponent's waist, then raised his knife and wiped his neck.Unexpectedly, at this time, there was a sudden exclamation from the square.

The princes and monarchs on the viewing platform temporarily stopped their disputes and fights, and turned their heads to look, only to see a thin and tall man, who was slowly pushing open the tall hall door of the Wannian Hall, and slowly walked into the sunny place outside the hall. Down.

"Who is here? This is the forbidden area of ​​the imperial city, who is not afraid of death to let you into the palace privately?!"

Da Sikong Wen Boyun shouted immediately.However, soon, he saw inside the opened temple door, the charred black ashes that had been burnt by a big fire last night, and more than a hundred Zhijinwu and their golden armors who died in it, densely piled up together, like a castle. hill.

And the only living person who walked out from that door was Kun Jie who fought fiercely with Gao Li in the hall last night.

"Come on, get it for me immediately!"

Wen Boyun couldn't listen to what the other party was going to explain, and didn't intend to listen at all, so he waved his hand and ordered the two guards standing outside the palace gate to surround him.

The man in front of the hall smiled coldly, but his figure suddenly flashed and disappeared out of thin air.However, his laughter still echoed over Panlongyuan:

"Does someone still need to let me in? There is no place on this land, and I can't go there!"

There was another exclamation from the crowd.Hundreds of years later, the people in the city witnessed the witchcraft spell again, and were immediately frightened out of their wits.Seeing this situation, Wen Boyun also felt terrified, but still tried his best to calm down, and loudly said to the heavily armed Jin Wuling on the sidelines:

"The demon enters the palace and disturbs the grand ceremony! Immediately shoot to death with random arrows, so as not to endanger the emperor and the people!"

The rain of arrows shot from all directions flew to the front of the hall in the blink of an eye.But when Kun Jie raised his hand, it was as if an invisible and intangible shield surrounded him, and he stopped all the arrows as if they were light, and none of them slipped through the net.

"Endangering the emperor? If you still recognize that idiot from the Baijiang family as your emperor, I really can't think of any benefit in hurting him. However, if you all recognize Gao Li, who is about to enthroned, as the emperor— "

The man standing on the high platform suddenly laughed grinningly.He paused, but he didn't know when there was an extra burden in his hand.After shaking it off, I saw that what was wrapped in it was Gao Li's blood-stained head!
"The new emperor whom you had high hopes for was killed by me last night. And you stupid land people will die here together with him today!"

Kunjie laughed wildly for a while, and began to mutter words again.This time, a dazzling thunderbolt fell from the clear sky, which happened to be on the viewing platform beside the midfield.

After the loud rumbling noise, the viewing platform made of mahogany turned into a pile of ashes and ignited a raging fire.The princes and kings who had fought fiercely in it before were also burnt into charred corpses on the spot. It was difficult to distinguish their faces, and it was even difficult to find complete bones.

This action finally made the crowd who were still watching from the sidelines, wanting to know what happened, panic, and rushed out of the palace city like a tide.Pushing and trampling are inevitable, and the crowd is constantly screaming in pain and despair, however.The deadly lightning that descended from the sky fell on their heads one after another without any mercy.

In the chaos, the chariots and horses where Ning Yue lived were also startled by the fleeing crowd.The servants leading the horses had long since disappeared, and the horses galloped across the square with their carts. The bumps were so extreme that the girl inside couldn't hold her own anymore, and kept crashing into the wooden boards on both sides of the carriage, so she had to curl up. Stand up and cover your head with your arms.

Suddenly, the left side of the car body shook violently, as if something was pressed on it, and the volley shot up.At high speeds, it is no longer possible to keep the cart balanced only by the horses pulling it.

With a "click", the thick yoke fell off from the horse, and the entire vehicle fell to the ground.Ning Yue in the car also slammed headfirst into the beam on the roof, her vision went dark and she lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, she faintly felt that she was being dragged out of the car, and after opening her eyes for a while, she realized that the person who was holding her in her arms was actually someone who should have been locked in the dungeon The wind is not different!

"How did you escape?"

The red-haired girl asked vaguely, but when she moved, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her head, and when she reached out her hand to touch it, it was dripping with blood.

"Seeing that no one has taken me out of the prison for a long time, my father faintly felt that something had happened. Fortunately, the black rose you gave me finally helped me break through the barrier and managed to escape from the prison. Yue'er Don't ask any more questions. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's talk about it after leaving the palace with my father!"

As Feng Weishu said, he took his daughter's hand and wanted to follow the flow of people to escape out of the palace gate.Unexpectedly, as soon as they turned around, they saw that Kun Jie on the high platform had long since disappeared.Then a powerful force from top to bottom struck head-on, knocking the father and daughter to the ground.When he stood up again, Kunjie was already standing in front of them!
