Chapter 6 One Stone Arouses Thousands of Waves (1)

In the third year of Emperor Zhenyuan, the war of the four kingdoms stopped. Before the people of Nanchuan had time to enjoy the hard-won peace, they were shocked by the news that "the left general who protects the country mutinied and crashed".On the streets of the city, when everyone was secretly discussing state affairs, another unimaginable event happened again in Nanchuan. From this, the prelude to the vicissitudes of the world was kicked off with great fanfare...

Tianhua Imperial Capital.

Tianlong Temple.

King Ling Rui knelt on the ground with one knee, his jade face was glowing, and he listened calmly to the imperial decree.

"Following heaven's fortune, the emperor's edict said. The Holy Master sacrifices to the heavens, and the gods are blessed by the gods, and the immortals are holy. With the help of the mirage scene, they appear overseas fairy mountains, and the psychic girl is beautiful. Prince Rui, together with [-] golden boys and jade girls each, will set sail in a few days and go overseas to search for fairies and saintesses, so as to bless the common people! Bestowed upon them!"

After saying this, all the officials were in an uproar in the court hall.

King Ling Rui frowned slightly, bowed his head in thought, before he had time to reply, but in a moment, there was an old minister who couldn't help himself, filled with righteous indignation, and offered a direct recommendation.

"My Majesty, this matter must never happen. I think that I have suffered a long time in Nanchuan, and natural disasters and man-made disasters continue. If it is decided today, the people of Nanchuan will be able to enjoy three years of safety because of the grace of the Holy One. If it is at this time, forcibly recruit children , to go to that unnecessary overseas fairy mountain, I am afraid that it will arouse public anger and shake the foundation of the country, Your Majesty!"

As soon as the words fell, courtiers who cared about the people's livelihood had long agreed.

When Emperor Zhenyuan heard the words, his face was cold and his eyes were cold for a while, secretly sullen.Seeing this scene, the eunuch who announced the decree acted like a tiger, and shouted in a shrill voice:

"Bold! How dare you blaspheme the gods, gods, and Buddhas, and talk about an 'unnecessary' fairy mountain. It is obvious that my emperor is wise and powerful, so he can enjoy the secrets of heaven. Now, His Majesty, in order to show sincerity and respect, he gave the people a chance. Who? If your doll can be selected to get to the fairy mountain, I’m afraid you will be overwhelmed and grateful! What arouses public outrage and shakes the country, if you are still talking nonsense like this, I’m afraid you will really overthrow our country in Nanchuan!”

"Presumptuous! On the court, how can you allow an eunuch to be so unscrupulous, speak disrespectfully, and disrupt the court!" The minister who had just recommended the words was so excited that he pointed at the eunuch and cursed.

The eunuch felt guilty, although he was upset, he didn't dare to speak back, and hurriedly retreated behind Emperor Zhenyuan with a grievance on his face.

King Ling Rui straightened up calmly, and calmly looked at the towering Emperor Zhenyuan.

Emperor Zhen Yuan just closed his eyes slightly, resting his head on one elbow, as if he didn't hear the dispute in the court just now.

Everyone couldn't figure out his thoughts, and there was another uproar for a while.

"Mr. Gongsun Ge, I read the memorial of your resignation and returned to your hometown a few days ago. Although I regret the retirement of Mr. Ge for the people of the world, but I think that Mr. Ge's life is already high, so I approved Mr. Ge today. Zhezi, elder Ge can return to his hometown to take care of the elderly from now on, so he can enjoy his family relationship!"

As soon as these words came out, the Tianlong Temple, which was in an uproar before, fell silent.The elder Gongsun Ge who was directly recommended by Shang Yan was stunned for a moment, then sighed helplessly, and kowtowed farewell with heartache: "Old minister, thank you for your understanding!"

Gongsun Pavilion burst into tears, caressing his heart with one hand, while staggering towards the gate of Tianlong Palace.

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. The boat can sail and capsize, it all depends on the water. Such a disaster for the people is really digging one's own grave..."

"Your Majesty, I have something to say! Then..." Before the servant of Jingdu could finish speaking, Emperor Zhenyuan interrupted him in a dignified voice, "Servant of Jingdu, the assassin who disturbed the king's birthday banquet a few days ago and assassinated King Lingrui, did you ever catch him?" arrive?!"
