Chapter 1370: 136-settling scores after autumn (2)
If such a thing happened in some big family, the family might be forced to abdicate.
The nature of a country’s ruler determined that it could not be easily changed. But even so, the eyes of the royal family looking at Emperor Yongxing were full of blame and resentment.
They thought that he was not a wise ruler.
After a short silence, the white-haired King Yu said, ”
“Could this matter be related to the branch in the cloud Prefecture?”
The princes were shocked.
Ever since the incident where Xu Qi ‘an killed the previous emperor, Xu Pingfeng had appeared in the world. Everything related to him had been exposed to the sun.
The important figures in the court, the small group of people in the core of the dynasty’s power, such as the Grand scholars in the cabinet and this group of princes, knew that the bloodline from 500 years ago had been hiding in Yunzhou and had intended to rebel.
“What King Yu means is that this matter involves the battle for the fate of the nation?”
“That Xu Pingfeng is the eldest disciple of the supervisor, and warlocks are closely related to the fate of the country …”
“To Emperor Gaozu, the bloodline from five hundred years ago was also. descendant of the Ji clan …”
The more Emperor Yongxing listened, the uglier his expression became.
The fourth Prince’s eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice, ”
“Uncles, what should we do about this?”
His current title was the flame Prince.
The imperial family’s royal titles in Da Feng usually only had two titles: Qinwang and Junwang. Junwang was the title of the first wife’s son of a Qinwang, other than the Crown Prince.
King Yu thought for a moment, then said,
“First of all, this matter must be kept a secret. Pass down the order, kill all those who spread the news.
“The matter of calling for donations will cause complaints from all levels of the court. We can’t give the Dukes an excuse to criticize His Majesty. This matter will also be a major blow to His Majesty’s prestige.”
Du du du … The sound of the cane hitting the ground attracted everyone’s attention. The princes and Junwang could not help but look at the old man sitting on a large sandalwood chair on the left side of Emperor Yongxing.
It was an old man with sparse white hair, wrinkles, and age spots on his face.
King Li.
He was the uncle of the former emperor Yuan jing, an old man in his 80s, and the highest-ranking person in the imperial family.
During the incident with the North vanquishing Prince, the old prince had even cooperated with Emperor yuanjing to put on a show.
“This is definitely not just a matter of His Majesty’s reputation. It’s not even a matter of those writing brushes who eat the emperor’s grain,”
King Li’s voice was hoarse, but it was unusually loud and echoed in the Imperial study.
The old man stood up shakily, looked around, and said in a deep voice, ”
“Five hundred years ago, that bloodline laid dormant in Yunzhou and was ready to go. At this critical moment, the ancestral tablets fell, and Emperor Gaozu’s Dharmakaya cracked …
“Yongxing, this is because old ancestor and Emperor Gaozu are not satisfied with you.”
Emperor Yongxing’s face changed,”granduncle, you ….
King Li’s words would be considered treasonous on any other occasion or time.
But on such an occasion, in such a matter, there was nothing wrong with his words. The princes of the Imperial clan would only think that he was right.
King Li continued,
“This matter is a family matter of my imperial family, so it must be concealed. But you, you will accept the self-admonishment edict and stop your donation of funds from the officials. In addition, Your Majesty should stay in the ancestral temple for three days to reflect on your mistakes and beg for forgiveness.”
Emperor Yongxing’s face turned ugly,”granduncle, I’ve just ascended the throne, how can. declare my crimes ….
Ever since he ascended the throne, the cold disaster had swept across the Central Plains, causing the people to starve to death and many to freeze to death. Refugees were everywhere.
It was not easy for him to regain some of his reputation because of his donations for disaster relief.
To issue a self-admonishing statement at this time was not just a slap in the face for a new emperor.
This was almost as if he was saying,”I’m not fit to be the Emperor!
How could he stomach this?
“As a subject, this King shouldn’t have said anything wrong about His Majesty. But as a granduncle, as a descendant of the Ji clan, can this King not say it? Even if the previous emperor were to be in power, this King would still make him kowtow and beg for forgiveness from our ancestors.”
“Yongxing, since you’re in this position, you have to bear the responsibility.” King Li tapped his cane hard.
Taking advantage of his seniority! When father was cultivating, why didn’t you dare to advise him? ‘You’re still bullying me because my Foundation is unstable, and you’re forcing me to bear the crime of’ Ancestor’s Wrath’. ..’ The veins on Emperor Yongxing’s forehead were throbbing.
A Prince stepped out and said loudly, ”
Your Majesty, our ancestors ‘attitude is related to the fate of the country. You must not underestimate them. You can not let the branch in Yunzhou take advantage of them.
Emperor Yongxing sat down dejectedly, ”
“I understand. If I can satisfy my ancestors, so what if I admit to my crimes or reflect on it for three days?”
In the dense forest.
Jingxin looked around and his eyes swept past li Miaozhen, Chu Yuanyou, and Hengyuan. He then looked at li lingsu and said, ”
“There’s something strange about the mirror in his hand.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind swept up as The White Tiger lunged toward li lingsu. It was so fast that even the rank-4 martial artists present could not react in time.
“You can’t kill!”
Jingxin put his hands together and executed the commandment.
The prohibition of killing sealed li lingsu’s killing intent and dispelled any thoughts of counterattacking. This was to ensure that The White Tiger would be able to kill her in one strike and eliminate her greatest threat.
As a grade four heart Gu master, the joyful begging pill fragrance could also deal with them if they were unconscious.
Li lingsu chuckled, and a golden light bloomed from her dantian, dispelling the power of commandment.
One golden core could break all techniques!
At the same time, li Miaozhen stretched out her arm and aimed at The White Tiger. Her pupils became transparent, empty, and emotionless.
In an instant, The White Tiger’s clothes tightened, and his belt tried to strangle him to death. His shoes automatically came off and flew up to hit his face. His hair wrapped around his neck and blocked his eyes.
The Qi in his body flowed in reverse, out of control.
This caused his attack on li lingsu to be ineffective.
Taking advantage of her Junior sister’s help, li lingsu retreated on her flying sword. At the same time, a miniature version of a scumbag jumped out from between her brows and slapped The White Tiger’s brows.
Shua shua shua … Liu Hongmian stomped on the tree trunk and caught up to li lingsu’s physical body with the explosive power of a martial artist.
She flew up high, the soft sword at her waist turning into a sharp brilliance.
Besieging Wei to save Zhao.
“Whoosh!”
A sword light shot over diagonally.
Liu Hongmian had the body of a rank-four martial artist and was fearless. She planned to take the sword Qi head-on and cut li lingsu’s body.
Clang!
Sure enough, the metal sword did not cut through Liu Hongmian’s body. However, her eyes suddenly went blank. Her body was like a carriage that had lost control as she crashed straight into li lingsu. The soft sword in her hand could not be wielded.
The sword of heart of Renzong was used to cut the primordial spirit.
“Wake up!”
Jingxin’s low shout was like the sound of a great Bell, causing Liu Hongmian to wake up from her dream.
He nimbly used the brainwashing ability of a seventh stage wizard to help Liu Hongmian get out of her dazed state.
At this moment, Liu Hongmian was less than three meters away from li lingsu’s physical body. The sword Qi that the flexible sword spewed out could easily kill him.
Liu Hongmian brandished her soft sword without hesitation.
Clang! At this moment, a large golden hand reached over and crushed the sword Qi.
“Amitabha. Female benefactor, please don’t fight. Peace is the most important thing.”
Hengyuan’s face was full of compassion. He then slapped Liu Hongmian away.
He had already mastered the Vajra power, and his combat strength had officially stepped into the fourth stage realm.
At that moment, li lingsu’s nascent soul successfully patted The White Tiger’s forehead.
Without any sound or Qi movement, an illusionary figure suddenly jolted out from the back of The White Tiger’s head. It was his primordial spirit.
The primordial Spirit’s upper body had left the body, but the lower body stubbornly remained inside.
The primordial spirit of a martial artist was tough and indomitable. Even a Dao sect nascent soul could not easily shake the primordial spirit out of the body.
The mirror flashed and captured The White Tiger before it could return to its body.
The White Tiger’s tall and sturdy body fell to the ground with a loud bang, unconscious.
And Jing Yuan, who was just about to rush over to help, was held back by Dongfang Wanqing.
Between her allies and her lover, she chose the latter without hesitation.
