Chapter 212: The Great Qin Dynasty (Part 2)(1/2)
Inside the Qin Palace, watching the black armored army outside the foreign guest hall running for support, Guo Zheng and others in the hall were panicked. They were not allowed to leave, and they could not get any answer after asking, which made them almost sick.
Today, Yu Jin's right eyelid kept twitching. Originally, after half of the hour of Si, a person would come over with two boxes of pastries. But today, there was still no one coming until noon. She didn't know what kind of feelings she had for Prince Jiang Xin. With so many days of companionship, she felt that the other party was a brother who took care of her everywhere. This self-righteous feeling began to become blurred after the arrival of one person.
After Shi Qiyu came out of Zunyi Hall, he found a black armored army guard to lead the way. The man didn't want to leave, after all, their team's mission was to protect Emperor Shengde. But Shi Qiyu's eyes made him feel that if he didn't agree, the other party would definitely kill him in one go.
Fortunately, the captain of this team, Zhang Rong, knew that Shi Qiyu was with Gao Jing, so he said to the guard in the team: "Lei Yang, please accompany Qi Yu to the side hall of the Foreign Guests."
The guard named Lei Yang immediately took the order and said, "Okay captain! Immortal Qi Yu, please come here."
After walking along the way, many teams of Black Armored Army questioned Lei Yang a few times when they met them. After checking the code, they looked at Shi Qiyu and left.
Shi Qiyu's face was as deep as water, and he didn't say a word. He knew that even if Emperor Shengde did not kill Prince Jiang Xin, he would commit suicide. They were all proud people. When there was no other son to fall in love, they were left with only a proud way of dying.
Lei Yang led the way in front, and Shi Qiyu followed closely behind. They passed by Xiao Zhujun's foreign guest hall first. The black armored army outside had been reduced to a team, and Xiao Zhujun was also bored at the entrance of the hall and wanted to see what happened. At this time, he happened to see Shi Qiyu, thinking about how he would come to the palace again.
Xiao Zhujun didn't know if he had been angry these days or something, so he opened his mouth and said, "Oh, isn't this our Shi Qiyu Immortal? Was it because your father brought him to listen to Emperor Shengde's lecture again?"
When Lei Yang saw Xiao Zhuijun talking to Shi Qiyu, he thought the two were old acquaintances, but when he heard the content of Xiao Zhuijun's words, he knew that they were enemies. Lei Yang alertly led Shi Qiyu to move forward quickly. In front of him was the side hall of Princess Yujin and his party, and he didn't want to cause trouble.
Xiao Zhujun thought Shi Qiyu didn't dare to cause trouble in the Qin Palace, so he respected his identity as a special envoy of Wei and said arrogantly: "Oh, by the way, Emperor Shengde has been recovering from illness. You are going to listen to the lectures of Prince Jiang Xin today."
After hearing this, Lei Yang just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, but found that he could no longer take steps under his feet.
Shi Qiyu behind him whispered: "Wait a moment, I'll vent my breath before leaving."
Lei Yang knew that Shi Qiyu was in a bad mood now, so he didn't dare to go up and dissuade Shi Qiyu, just asking him not to make a life too impulse.
The black armored army outside Xiao Zhujun's hall stopped Shi Qiyu and said, "This is the side hall of foreign guests, and idle people are not allowed to enter."
The Black Armored Army Captain seemed to know Lei Yang and said to him: "Lei Yang, why don't you take your people away quickly."
Lei Yang smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I don't want to leave, it's that I can't."
Xiao Zhujun in the hall looked at the black armored army protecting him, and sneered at Shi Qiyu, saying, "Did you hear that, I am a foreign guest of Qin. If you attack me, you will not give Qin a face. After slapping Qin in the face, even if your father is now the Minister of the Guard, you will not be able to explain it."
"Explanation? No one can let me explain here." After that, Shi Qiyu ignored the black armored army blocking ahead. While he was making left hand, a stone prison suddenly emerged from under the black armored army to completely bind them.
The Black Armored Army Captain said in surprise: "If you commit an offense in the palace, no matter who you are, you can't escape."
Shi Qiyu looked at the Black Armored Army Captain with cold eyes. With his left hand opened and pressed, the bricks and stones under the black Armored Army Captain's feet cracked, forming a big hole to bury half of his body inside. Shi Qiyu said to him: "I don't think I'll kill you for the sake of Gao Jing, but if you still talk so much, you'll be ready to bury it under forever."
In the terrified eyes of the black armored soldiers, Shi Qiyu strode into Xiao Zhujun's side hall.
When the scorpion slaves heard the movement outside, they came out of the hall one after another and found that Xiao Zhuijun was provoking Shi Qiyu. The two of them were overwhelmed. Thinking that Shi Qiyu was already an immortal who could fly in the air, how could they be the opponent of each other? Shi Qiyu didn't want to get entangled with others. With his left hand raised, two sarcophagus appeared on the ground to lock the snake slave and the sarcophagus in it. Let the snake slave and the sarcophagus beat them, the sarcophagus still stood there motionlessly.
Xiao Zhujun only felt that Shi Qiyu was crazy. It would be fine if he trapped the Black Armor Army. He actually dared to attack them, the special envoys of Wei.
Xiao Zhujun unconsciously stepped back and said, "Don't come over!"
Shi Qiyu faced Xiao Zhujun like this, and even the Shui Ning sword was too lazy to take it out. He raised it lightly between his left fingers, and a stone pillar on the ground suddenly stood up and hit Xiao Zhujun's jaw, causing him to almost bite off his tongue. Xiao Zhujun covered his chin, his mouth was covered with blood foam, and he hesitated: "You... dare to hurt... I..."
Shi Qiyu didn't talk much to him. He froze back and forth between his left fingers. The stone pillars condensed on the ground flexibly whipped Xiao Zhujun like a whip. The ginseng snake did not dare to come out and hid in Xiao Zhujun's arms and shivered. It didn't understand why Xiao Zhujun was fine for this troll. After the last dinner, the ginseng snake was extremely afraid of Shi Qiyu and wished he could be hundreds of miles away from him.
Xiao Zhuijun was beaten by Shi Qiyu with a bruised nose and swollen face. He also found that Shi Qiyu was in a bad mood today. But he never expected that Shi Qiyu really dared to take ruthlessness, but he made up his mind that when Prince Jiang Xin came over, he would have to participate in a book on the Shi family. He would not know that, let alone Prince Jiang Xin or Shi Yu, even Emperor Shengde could not control Shi Qiyu.
Seeing that his anger was almost out, Shi Qiyu removed the sarcophagus of the Snake Slave and the Scorpion Slave. Compared to the Snake Slave's hatred, the Scorpion Slave was much more comfortable. Anyway, this was not the young master of their Scorpion Immortal lineage, and he was asked by Xiao Zhujun. However, he thought that Shi Qiyu looked a little like their Scorpion Immortal Young Master Feng Nuan. The Scorpion Slave sighed in his heart, thinking that he really missed the young master too much, and when he saw such a fairy figure, he would think of him together.
Just when the Lingginseng Snake was glad that Shi Qiyu was finally leaving, another team of black armored troops came outside the door. They watched their brothers be trapped by strange magic and took the lead in pulling out the weapons in their hands and chopping them at the stone pillars, but found that after their swords were cut, the weapons were either cut or gaps, and the stone pillars were not damaged at all.
The leader of the black-armored army rushed into the hall and said, "Who is actually causing trouble in the palace!"
When he saw Xiao Zhujun, who was beaten in the hall, he hurriedly said to Shi Qiyu with his weapons: "The bold madman actually hurts my foreign guests from Qin. People come to protect Xiao Zhujun and take this person down."
"Don't..." Xiao Zhujun was about to stop them and told them not to anger Shi Qiyu, but the dedicated black armored troops had already come with weapons.
Shi Qiyu naturally would not care about anything with Gao Jing's men, but this anger was always to be vented. He grabbed the void with his right hand, and Xiao Zhujun's body couldn't help but mop the floor towards Shi Qiyu. Xiao Zhujun was held in his hand and said, "Tell them, why did you hurt?"
"Being beaten by...you..." Before Xiao Zhuijun finished speaking, the ginseng snake in his arms had been grabbed by Shi Qiyu.
The Lingginseng Snake knew that Shi Qiyu was going to attack it, so she twisted her body and wanted to resist, but she was no match for Shi Qiyu at all. Shi Qiyu directly tied three knots on the Lingginseng Snake's snake body and said, "Speak well."
Xiao Zhujun covered his chin and said to the black armored soldiers: "I... fell myself..."
The leader of the Black Armored Army knew that Shi Qiyu was bullying the weak and said with a sense of justice: "Jun Xiao Zhu, don't be afraid. Our Commander Gao is back, and he will definitely make the decision for you!"
As soon as the leader of the Black Armored Army finished speaking, there was another knot on the body of the Lingguan Snake. It was so painful that it kept hissing and sizzling. I secretly hated that there was such a sincere Black Armored Army guard.
Xiao Zhujun was about to cry and said, "You...the commander... have a grudge against me, be a...sham...master."
When the leader of the Black Armored Army heard that Xiao Zhujun had a grudge against Gao Jing, he immediately changed his face and said, "Then please pay more attention to your health and let's go."
When Shi Qiyu saw the Black Armored Army retreat, he threw the four knotted ginseng snake on the ground and said, "Let's go."
Xiao Zhujun almost said, "You should leave quickly." I will definitely be 180 miles away when I see you next time.
After Shi Qiyu came out, he removed the magic from the Black Armored Army outside. The Black Armored Army looked at Shi Qiyu from the side hall of the foreign guest next to him, thinking about who the young man was.
Seeing that it had arrived, Shi Qiyu said to Lei Yang: "Thank you, you can go back."
Lei Yang said respectfully to Shi Qiyu: "That young man will say goodbye first." The experience of accompanying Shi Qiyu along the way today made Lei Yang gain a lot of face in front of the young people who joined the Black Armor Army in the future. They always rush to ask Lei Yang what the magic of the immortal arts look like. After adding a little bit of fuel to the fire, Lei Yang talked about the matter of the foreign guest hall today. However, after each time he finished speaking, he always yearned for Shi Qiyu's immortal posture, thinking about where he is now and whether he is in the fairy world.
In the side hall of Princess Yujin, when Guo Zheng came in to report that someone came outside, Princess Yujin thought it was the prince Jiang Xin who had arrived. Unexpectedly, when he went out, he saw that he was a young man in white. Seeing that he was not old, he was even somewhat similar to Shi Wu.
Shi Qiyu introduced himself: "My name is Shi Qiyu, and I am Jiang Xin's friend. Jiang Xin asked me to tell you that he is going to a very far place and can't accompany you to see the beautiful scenery of clouds hanging on the peaks. He asked you to go with your beloved."
Princess Yujin stood up unsteadily when she heard this, and she stepped back. Fortunately, Grandma Ji next to her helped her to hold her back.
Shi Qiyu saw that the other party knew the meaning of his words, so he left the hall without saying much.
Princess Yujin used to think that she had the same feelings for Prince Jiang Xin as her sister, why did she feel heartbroken when she heard these words from him? Princess Yujin leaned in Grandma Ji's arms and started to cry.
In Zunyi Hall, Emperor Shengde Jiang Xun hugged the body of the prince Jiang Xin tightly and refused to let go. After Gao Jing imprisoned the eldest prince and others, he told the black armored army captains not to disclose any of the matter outside. Those black armored army captains knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded repeatedly.
After doing this, Gao Jing returned to the Zunyi Hall first. Yanboke, who was guarding outside the hall, stopped Gao Jing who wanted to enter and said to him: "Your Majesty is in sadness now, let him be alone for a while."
Gao Jing didn't know that Empress Zunyi and Crown Prince Jiang Xin were dead, but he saw the twelfth prince Jiang Yin sitting on the steps of Zunyi Hall like he had lost his soul, and pushed Yan Boke with his elbow and said, "What's wrong with him?"
Yan Boke glanced at Jiang Yin and said, "He is sad."
Gao Jing scratched his head with a puzzled look on his face. What is this?
Jiang Yin was indeed sad. He just knelt down and begged Emperor Shengde to make public the various evil deeds recorded on the scroll, but Emperor Shengde only responded to him with one word "get out".
Looking at Emperor Shengde who was dying, Yan Boke had to take Jiang Yin, who was still talking, out as soon as possible. He knew that Emperor Shengde was in an extreme state, and now he could do anything if he provoked him in the past.
Yanboke and the other two sat there and waited until the afternoon Shenshi. During this period, Shi Yu came over to ask in person. When Yanboke told the situation inside, he was so scared that he went to Wanlong Palace to wait. Gao Jing also knew what was happening inside at that time, and was so energetic that he was guarding the door outside. He was afraid that if he said the wrong thing, he would provoke Emperor Shengde, and that would not be a matter of being beaten on the butt.
Before Emperor Shengde came out, the Black Armor Army reported to the news that the Censor Cai Mao was looking for a meeting outside. Gao Jing thought to himself, why Cai Mao came here at this time? He had already found someone to send the official uniforms to the Cai Mansion.
What Gao Jing didn't know was that because Gao Jing sent someone to send Cai Mao's official uniform to inform him of the news that Emperor Shengde was back, Cai Mao thought that he would use the black sha on his head to protect the eldest prince Jiang Feng and others this time, and Emperor Shengde would definitely reward him. Later, there were some hands and feet left by the eldest prince in the palace to plead, saying that the eldest prince and several princes were imprisoned in the heavenly prison. Cai Mao thought that the crown prince Jiang Xin could speak cleverly, which led Emperor Shengde to convict the eldest prince and others, so he immediately put on his official uniform and came to the palace, preparing to advise him as an old minister again.
"Mr. Cai, you can't go in!" The black armored army outside stopped him.
Cai Mao said proudly: "I am an old minister in the 30th year of the Qin Dynasty. You dare to stop me! I want to see Your Majesty! I want to see Your Majesty!"
Seeing that the Black Armored Army outside could not stop Cai Mao, Gao Jing was about to go there himself. Emperor Shengde's hoarse voice came from the hall, "Who is making noise outside?"
Gao Jing knelt down and said respectfully: "It's the Censor Cai Mao."
Emperor Shengde walked out with a haggard face, his eyes were red, and the tears on his face had just been wiped dry. He said, "Let him in."
"Here!" Gao Jing took the order to pick up Cai Mao from outside.
When Cai Mao came in, he was still complaining about the ignorance of the Black Armored Army outside, and patted his sleeves and said, "Sir Gao, you Black Armored Army are really becoming less and less ignorant of the rules. Can I stop me?"
Gao Jing smiled apologized and said, "Mr. Cai, they are also trying to protect the emperor. The emperor has not summoned you, why are you here?"
Cai Mao clasped his fists and said to the sky: "I heard that the eldest prince and others were imprisoned in the heavenly prison. I thought that the emperor was bewitched by the words of the prince Jiang Xin, so I came to advise the emperor not to be confused."
Gao Jing said with an oh, "Mr. Cai is really a pillar of the country. Gao admires it. It's Lord. It's Lord. The road ahead is not easy to walk. Gao advises you to go back."
Cai Mao didn't hear Gao Jing's meaning. When he saw the flat stone road in Zunyi Hall in front of him, he said, "Why did you talk nonsense without drinking?"
Gao Jing said this and led him in.
Outside the hall, Emperor Shengde's vicissitudes of expression shocked Cai Mao. He only felt that Emperor Shengde had experienced something sad, and knelt down and said, "Old minister Cai Mao, please see the emperor."
Emperor Shengde's throat was hoarse and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Cai Mao kowtowed and said, "The old minister heard that the eldest prince and others were detained in the heavenly prison. I wonder what they had committed?"
Emperor Shengde replied, "They are disrespectful to me, and I take them to the heavenly prison to wait for the death penalty."
Cai Mao advised: "The eldest prince and others have been granted the title of foreign kings, and the people are watching the Qin capital. This sudden entrustment to the Tianzhu will inevitably cause discussion among the people."
"What are you talking about?" Emperor Shengde pinched his throat and said coldly.
Cai Mao had not heard the strange thing about Emperor Shengde's words, and said to himself: "The old minister was afraid that they would discuss the emperor's favor of the crown prince, and the crown prince is now arrogant and domineering and cannot tolerate their brothers at all. Then the brothers will kill each other and cause trouble to the Qin Palace. The old minister's loyal words, please ask the emperor to think twice and let the eldest prince and others go."
Cai Mao asked himself that he was sincere and sincere. If Emperor Shengde had changed his usual behavior, he might have praised him for his words, but Emperor Shengde was not in such a mood now.
Emperor Shengde sneered: "What a loyal word to the emperor. But I don't want to hear these things now, please step back."
Cai Mao thought Emperor Shengde was bewitched by Empress Zunyi and Crown Prince Jiang Xin, so he said to the Zunyi Hall: "Empress Zunyi, your mother and son are in trouble with the court and harming the prince, aren't you afraid that the ancestors of the Qin Dynasty will come to revenge!"
The wound on Emperor Shengde's right hand was so blood was shed from him. Emperor Shengde said, "Gao Jing, drag him down and behead him."
Gao Jing exclaimed, but still knelt down and said, "Here!"
Cai Mao didn't hear it clearly, but seemed to hear that he wanted to behead him, and he said fearlessly: "Your Majesty, this is my heartfelt word! Even if you want to behead the old minister today, the old minister would still say that the Crown Prince Jiang Xin bewitched people's hearts. He took advantage of your resting period to win over the power, just to..."
"Gao Jing, let him shut up." Emperor Shengde said coldly.
Gao Jing had no choice but to cover Cai Mao who was dragged out with his hands and tell him not to say anything. Cai Mao still wanted to touch Emperor Shengde, so he bit Gao Jing's palm, and Gao Jing screamed in pain.
