Chapter 51: Abolition of King Dai
After entering Prince Dai's Mansion, Lorraine Hill felt a warmer welcome, not only the uniformly dressed guards, but also hundreds of court ladies standing neatly. After she entered the hall used for dinner, there was a brightly lit scene inside.
The upper head in the center of the hall has already reserved vacant seats, the middle is reserved for performances, and on both sides are courtiers under the command of King Dai, who sit in front of the low table.
Seeing Lorraine Hill walking into the hall, King Dai who was sitting at the head immediately got up, walked down the steps with heavy and exaggerated steps, and came to the hall, talking while walking.
"It turned out that it was the canary maiden who came to visit, and Xiao Wang was too far away to welcome her, and she was rude and rude."
Well, I'm so self-effacing now, didn't I say His Majesty King Dai before? Although Lorraine Hill was a little surprised and puzzled, he didn't ask at this time.
"I came here rashly, maybe I disturbed you all." Lorraine Hill looked away from King Dai, and then glanced at the people present.
Most of them are courtiers under King Dai's command. Among them are the governors of the neighboring states, and some are representatives of other factions. Among them are the people of Zhu Zhanhuo Lianyuan and Longshu Xuejie. Compared with King Dai, they are much calmer.
Greeted by King Dai, Lorraine Hill slowly stepped into the upper seat, and separated the left and right desks with King Dai, and then the music of silk and bamboo played again, and the servants and maids also brought prepared delicate snacks and put them on her table.
After a brief self-introduction, Lorraine Hill also roughly knew the identities of everyone present, and then the topic gradually turned to the purpose of her visit this time.
In fact, according to her original idea, it was not so high-profile, but after getting in touch with King Dai first, he would consciously abdicate, give up the title of King Dai, and disband the army and personnel under his command.
Nowadays, in such a situation surrounded by many people, Lorraine Hill is a bit uncomfortable to speak. Does it make people feel a little too much and disrespectful?
Although she was thinking this way in her mind, she would not say that she would give up her original ideas and goals just because of this kind of welcome. This matter is far from being resolved by a warm welcome.
"His Royal Highness King Dai has thought about the future." After pondering for a while, Lorraine Hill finally spoke.
Hearing her question, many guests and disciples in the audience turned their eyes away one after another, giving people the illusion that the expressions of these people admiring the music and dancing before were all fake.
"What will happen in the future... Ha, what is the matter that the witch is talking about?" King Dai wiped his sweat slightly with his hands, and his already fat body trembled even more now.
Looking at this man who was still pretending to be stupid, the girl shook her head slightly, knowing that it was difficult for the other party to accept such a reality.
After all, he has been a prince for decades, and now that he is asked to give up his glory and wealth, he must not want to accept it. It is not surprising that the other party reacts at all, but now he is not directly taken down by someone, which is a bit unexpected for the girl.
Wasn't this king Dai very arrogant or domineering in the past? I remember that he used various means to harm the people who impeached him before the emperor. When he was in the Ximu Mountains, the state shepherd of Xiyouzhou had vaguely mentioned that King Dai was a man who would be vengeful and had a violent personality. Now he is so peaceful. Could it be that the previous rumors were not true.
…
When Lorraine Hill lowered her head to think, she didn't realize that the disciples of the Xiangyu Sect behind her had already stared at King Dai opposite him with cold and stern eyes. The chilling look seemed to say that if King Dai didn't obediently agree today, he might not even think about getting out alive.
King Dai's status is noble and pampered. How could he have been treated like this before? The disciples on the opposite side are all Sequence 8 existences. Except for the door-to-door, any big faction they go to is a suzerain or Taishan Beidou-like figure. Now there are several people who are staring at him like this.
Although there was some fear in his heart, King Dai still looked down at the other door-to-door representatives who were working below. These masters should be able to resist the group of Xiangyu faction. Isn't there a fight between the big factions at the door, why is it so quiet today.
He glanced at them one by one, but the representatives below shook their heads slightly, avoiding their eyes, as if they didn't want to respond to King Dai's request here.
Seeing these people react like this, for some reason, a nameless anger slowly sprouted in King Dai's heart.
These sluts followed behind him respectfully before, calling themselves His Majesty, saying that they are rare sages who should inherit the great rule and rule the world.
Fortunately, a little girl is timid when she comes here. Isn’t she the Canary Witch? Wasn’t she a little girl from the countryside when she was awarded the title?
Some decadent mood before, but now under agitation, it bursts out again.
Seeing that King Dai stood up slowly with his legs supported, he looked at the crowd, and then spoke.
"I am King Dai, a descendant of the Son of Heaven, and I am expected by all. Is there any outsider to comment on how I behave?" He changed his respectful attitude before, and his voice gradually became louder.
It's just that the slightly trembling body and the slight tremor in his voice betrayed what he thought in his heart.
After these words, the originally bustling hall suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at each other, some wanted to move, some hesitated, and some just wanted to watch this good show.
"
Your Majesty's words are very true, and I hope to follow them to death. "Although King Dai is unwise, there are still some loyal soldiers.
As they said that, several generals came out from the audience. They half-kneeled down to show their loyalty. Then, under the greeting of these generals, guards who were stationed outside the hall also rushed into the hall to protect King Dai layer by layer.
These bodyguards are all dressed in dark gold and complicated dragon scale armor, with black embroidered dragon cloaks on their backs. They are all extremely powerful. Each of them has the strength of the seventh level.
With the protection of these guards, King Dai suddenly became more courageous, and he stopped trembling when he spoke. He turned his eyes again, and looked at the girl sitting across from him.
…
"Golden Sparrow Witch Lolan, your title is nothing more than my royal father's merciful canonization. I said a few compliments before, but if I don't want to be arrogant, I really don't know how to handle it."
As King Dai, he has met countless high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the world. Although the Golden Sparrow Witch is famous, it is not uncommon, but the Xiangyu faction people who came to visit caught him by surprise. Now that the guards and subordinates gathered, King Dai regained a lot of courage.
Lorraine Hill sat behind the desk, looked at the scene in front of him, blinked, a little surprised, why did the King Dai suddenly change his face, it seems that he didn't threaten him too much.
But now that King Dai has made it clear, she doesn't want to go around in circles like charades.
The young girl in a white gold leaf costume also stood up. She looked at King Dai's subordinates. Although they were very powerful, if she wanted to solve them, it would only take a moment.
It's just that it feels a bit unexpected and uncomfortable, because she seldom used to force people like this before.
That being the case, then speak uprightly.
"Your Highness, King Dai, although you are a descendant of the former emperor, you have formed a party for selfish purposes, persecuted Zhongliang, and behaved unrestrainedly for decades! After the emperor passed away, you did not respect his phoenix fire edict, and indulged in your own desires, regardless of it? The disaster in Qizhou caused countless deaths and injuries among the people of the four continents..."
Lorraine Hill spoke one by one about the crimes that King Dai had committed over the years, including the persecution of Chief Qiu, which resulted in his death. Speaking of these things, Lorraine Hill, who was originally calm, unknowingly became angry. There seemed to be golden flames burning in his pupils, and the golden scales on the center of his eyebrows appeared again. The invisible wave of air overflowed from her body. Shaking physically and mentally.
The several visiting representatives who were thinking of watching a good show before had a sudden change of expression at this moment, even a little shocked. Some of them were also eighth-order existences, but they were no better than the mortals beside them under the impact of this invisible air wave.
An extraordinary strength seemed to be a display in front of this turmoil, and the flames of mind and body seemed to rise from the depths of the soul, and it was impossible to avoid and resist.
Even though there were layers of guards blocking them, the pair of golden pupils seemed to be able to pass through the layers of obstacles, so that King Dai, who was surrounded by everyone, could see them. The golden flames burned in them made the whole person feel as if immersed in a boundless purgatory, and his fat body was trembling non-stop.
Time passed by second by second, and when the girl with golden pupils and angry flames stopped speaking, the hall was reeling, and there was a faint cry from the crowd surrounded by guards, which made Lorraine gradually wake up, and then closed his eyes slightly, and the burning breath felt by everyone in the hall gradually disappeared.
It's not good, when did I become so angry.
Closing his eyes, Lorraine Hill examined himself. It seemed that practicing the Sequence of Dragons was indeed easy to get emotional.
After slowly sorting out the emotions and reasons, Lorraine Hill opened his eyes again. At this time, the hall was still extremely silent, and no one dared to break the silence.
Looking at the figure of King Dai in the crowd of guards opposite, Lorraine Hill raised his hand.
…
"Let's spread out." After she finished speaking, the guards were still hesitating, but soon a strong air current pushed them away, revealing the collapsed King Dai in the center.
Looking at the ugly King Dai in front of him, Lorraine Hill shook his head slightly, a little puzzled why the former emperor had such an heir. Although that person did something extremely wrong in the second half of his life, it is undeniable that he could indeed be called Mingjun in the first half of his life, otherwise he would not be loved by Chifeng.
Do you want to kill him, Lorraine Hill asked himself, it seems that he can do it or not.
Forget it, let the autumn officials judge his crime and determine his punishment.
She turned around, walked down the steps step by step, and walked out of the main hall, followed by fellow students in yellow gauze clothes.
Not long after, the floating boat made of yellow wood rose from the ground again, took off slowly in the night full of lights and fireworks, and disappeared into the sky of the galaxy.
In mid-June, a few days had passed since the Golden Sparrow Witch visited Queen Dai, and the prosperous Dai Palace in the past suddenly became deserted. The big factions who had followed him left one after another, while other factions and forces gradually dispersed.
After that, the palace of Prince Dai withered and began to close the palace.
At the end of July, the Golden Sparrow Witch went to the altar to pray to the heavens to quell the disaster of the last disordered dragon vein in the southwestern continents. At this time, the overall situation has been decided.
Then, Lorraine Hill announced the abolition of the name of King Dai and all titles at the ceremony in accordance with the imperial edict of Fenghuo, and then ordered the rebuilt Four Seasons Official to completely
King Cha Dai, he was wronged and rehabilitated for the events of the old year.
In mid-August, King Dai was captured by Qiu Guan. After being convicted of many crimes, he was taken to Canzhou and beheaded in front of the Changrong River, which once hated the ravages of the canal.
The head fell from the slash of the big knife, and then rolled into the long river below.
The local people scolded him face to face, and after King Dai was executed, they kowtowed in front of Huaichang's tombstone to commemorate his kindness and deeds.
"In this way, it should be fine."
Standing by the Changrong River, Lorraine Hill could still see the traces of river sand and muddy water on both banks. This was left behind when the Monster Beast Canal was raging in the first half of the year. The Epiglottic Canal caused heavy rain, the river surged, flooded the city and the fields, and countless people died.
Knowing this, King Dai didn't let the superhumans under his command come to exterminate the monsters, but also wholeheartedly prepared to go to Luojing to inherit the affairs of the Datong. Not only that, he also ordered other door-to-doors to help him with all their strength, and not to be easily transferred.
Such a narrow-minded mind is naturally contemptible, but at that time, King Dai was in full swing, and no one dared to offend him. Later, the disaster caused by this disgusting canal became more and more serious, and countless people died in the flood and heavy rain.
If it hadn't been for the hero from the remote barren hills to take action, I am afraid that the disaster of exhaustion will spread to other states and counties, causing more people to suffer.
Thinking about these things in his heart, Lorraine Hill walked on the hillside by the river with green grass and rocks, and walked towards the top of the mountain.
This mountain road was recently excavated by local people, and there are still many traces of gravel paving. Along the mountain road, some local people climbed up the stairs.
Wearing a veil, Lorraine Hill also slowly stepped forward among the crowd, until he reached the small open space on the top of the mountain. Under a tall beech tree, a rough and simple oval-shaped boulder stood tall, with several large characters engraved on it.
'The Tomb of Huaichang'
Simple and unpretentious, as the name suggests.
Many old people and children quietly walked to the tombstone, carefully inserted the three sticks of incense into the cauldron full of incense ash, then slowly knelt down, silently mourning, and after a long time, they slowly stood up with dim eyes, and then left.
Only those who have personally experienced all the disasters that have swept through them can understand how precious and rare it is to have such a hero appearing in this world and save everyone from all kinds of evil and dangerous situations.
Following these people, Lorraine Hill also took out three sticks of incense and lit them, saluted first, then inserted them into the cauldron, mourned silently, and then left.
