Chapter 870: Referendum to Kill the True Dragon

It rained heavily.

A troop of cavalry is galloping over Jinshi Tianjie.

Nine City Bing Ma Si Yamen.

Tang Xun got off his horse, rushed into it, and came to the White Tiger Festival Hall: "Where is Commander Zhang? Let him come to see me quickly!"

The command envoy of Ninetowns Bingma Division is his confidant. At this time, the situation is urgent, and a quick decision must be made to minimize the impact.

"Mr. Dingguo..."

Not long after, Commander Zhang did not come, but a few guards came.

"you……"

Tang Xun suddenly felt something was wrong. This was his intuition for half his life as a soldier, and he had never made a mistake.

"You trespassed on the White Tiger Hall, take it down!"

exclaimed a guard.

"Blind your dog eyes, this is Duke Ding, old Tang Ge!"

The soldiers who followed Tang Xun yelled and cursed loudly.

But those guards were unmoved, and another group of soldiers entered outside, surrounding Tang Xun and his own soldiers.

Tang Xun hadn't seen such a deadpan murderous expression on his face for a long time.

Seeing him again at this moment, he just gave a wry smile and said to the soldiers: "Everyone put down your weapons... don't make mistakes!"

He asked the guards to tie him up again, and said: "I want to see the national teacher... Although your Majesty is wrong, the country must not be chaotic!"

"We don't know this, we only know that Dingguo trespassed on a military important place, and he will be detained pending trial!"

A group of Six Armored Divine Soldiers answered blankly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Tang Xun suddenly burst into tears, knowing that since the national teacher still has such magical soldiers, His Majesty may be in danger!

...

examination room.

It was raining cats and dogs outside, but the candidates inside were still writing hard.

Yang Fei was scratching his head and cheeks with a rare arithmetic problem, when he suddenly felt something was wrong.

There seemed to be a lot of people outside, and there was a lot of hustle and bustle.

This is completely inconsistent with the regulations of the public examination!

The examiner hurried out, came back immediately, and said in a loud voice: "Let's not take the exam today...you should hurry out of the examination room and go to the Temple of Heaven to meet you."

The Temple of Heaven is near the examination room.

It's just that when Xiao Liang declared to be the Emperor, the Temple of Heaven was automatically abandoned.

But Yang Fei and the others were ignorant, they lined up on both sides of the road, acting as spectators, and they all became drowned. When their faces were full of depression, they only heard a few gunshots, and the guard of honor came over. Even in the rain, everyone was solemn, Majestic.

"This... this is the Tianzi frame."

A candidate suddenly said in a low voice: "It is recorded in "Arbitrariness" that the Son of Heaven has a large chariot, a small chariot, and a fa chariot. The fa chariot is called a golden root chariot with six horses, and there is a five-hour auxiliary chariot with four horses. , the attendant participated in the ride, and it belongs to the thirty-six carriages... But the emperor's carriage frame, hasn't it been abandoned long ago?"

Yang Fei could also see it, but at this time he dared not ask or say anything, he just glanced at it, and saw that behind the band of bands, there was a team of cavalry with the Vermilion Bird flag and the twelve dragon flags.

After the dragon flag, there are four flags each of Fengbo, Yushi, Leigong, and Dianmu, one each of the five elements of wood, fire, earth, gold, and water, one each of the left and right Dharma protector flags, and the Big Dipper. Put the flag on one side.

"When the emperor travels, all the gods accompany him...the one who goes is the Temple of Heaven again."

An old Confucian dressed in rags suddenly wiped his cheek and said loudly, "The Son of Heaven is revived! The Son of Heaven is revived!"

Yang Fei next to him wanted to cover his mouth, but those cavalrymen just glanced at him, and no one cared about him.

This immediately let Yang Fei know, and I am afraid that this person was right.

The Human Sovereign is about to offer sacrifices to the heavens again and regain the title of Son of Heaven!

Temple of Heaven.

Strange to say, when the Tianzi carriage arrived, all the clouds and rain dispersed near the Temple of Heaven, and rainbows appeared, which looked very auspicious.

A ceremony official who was hurriedly pulled over was urged to start the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

Xiao Liang walked up to the Temple of Heaven step by step, feeling ashamed of fleeing.

He had never felt this feeling since his father's failed rebellion when he was young.

But at this time, he walked quickly, climbed up to the Temple of Heaven, and asked the eunuchs around him to prepare objects for offering sacrifices to heaven, as well as jade badges, memorials for offering sacrifices to heaven, etc...

Looking at the subjects who were forcibly gathered under the high platform, Xiao Liang took a deep breath: "I am the Son of Heaven, I am the country!"

Although, at first he didn't want to break with the prime minister.

But Mingjiao and Daofan are both promoting it openly and secretly.

The military and even the nobles also have opinions.

What's more, the ghosts and gods also said that the national teacher's life was wasting his life!

As an emperor, there are many unavoidable things. To be coerced like this, and then too many people know about it, the plan will inevitably be leaked, and then there is a hasty start, which ends disastrously!

Even in the past so many years, that person's control over the army is still so strong!

When he received the information that Si Yunming and Zheng Fang were beheaded by his subordinates, and Tang Xun was captured and imprisoned for a ridiculous reason, Xiao Liang knew that he had no choice but to quickly sacrifice to heaven and become the emperor !

The ceremony was hastily carried out.

After burning the sacrificial offerings, Xiao Liang quickly recited: "Prime Minister Xiao Liang said to the heavens, there are monsters in the world causing chaos, and the common people in the world will suffer from it..."

Yang Fei knelt down with the people around him, not conspicuous.

But there is only one thought in my heart: "A big thing is going to happen, a big thing is going to happen!"

"Look!"

Suddenly, someone pointed in a direction.

Over there, a young Taoist riding a white tiger was slowly approaching.

Even though Yang Fei has never seen it in person, the legend of Immortal Huli has been circulating in the world for decades!

"It's the national teacher!"

"Prime Minister!"

"Void Lingzi!"

The eyes of all the officials were different, and in the hearts of those who knew what Aaron had done, this figure was no different from a demon.

But Aaron did not bring thousands of troops, but just came.

"Aww!"

Xiaoyu came under the Temple of Heaven, watched Aaron go up, and lay on the side boredly, yawning.

"National teacher wait a minute!"

Aaron walked up the first step, and a civil servant came out: "This is a grand ceremony for offering sacrifices to heaven, please observe the ceremony..."

puff!

Before he finished speaking, a bloody hole appeared on the forehead of the ceremonial officer, and he fell down.

"Daliang has been supporting scholars for ten years, and today is the day of righteous death!"

An old Confucian yelled loudly, and then also fell down.

Beside Aaron, the seven flying swords buzzed and roared, swimming in the air like fish, appearing quite spiritual.

He continued to walk up, step by step.

But at this time, no one dared to come out to stop him!

This is prestige!

Why was Li Shimin able to succeed to the throne after the success of the Xuanwu Gate, and all the officials bowed their heads, but few cared about Li Yuan?

This is also the prestige established by the previous illustrious military exploits!

As for Aaron's military exploits and prestige in Liang Guozhong at this time... the common people may be ignorant, but the officials are all clear about it.

But Xiao Liang has been emperor for so many years, and there are always some loyal ministers.

When Aaron reached the end, a eunuch who knew martial arts, Zhi Jinwu rushed over and used his life to buy time for the emperor.

"... Alas, Shang Xiang!"

When Aaron stepped on the pool of blood and climbed to the highest place of the Temple of Heaven, Xiao Liang had already finished reading the scriptures for celestial sacrifices, and threw them into the brazier, watching them being swallowed by the flames.

Boom!

In the sky, a thunder suddenly exploded.

In the dark, it seemed that a real blue-purple dragon emerged and roared at Aaron.

Aaron's face turned pale, and his figure froze for an instant.

bang bang!

At this moment, two shots fired!

But it was a musket sniper hiding somewhere, who aimed at Aaron and pulled the trigger!

A musket carefully crafted by skilled craftsmen emits hot bullets.

When it hit Aaron, a spark burst out, making a sound like gold and iron colliding.

—— King Kong is not bad!

This is the trump card that Aaron has been hiding all along, and it was not revealed even during the battle against the Golden King!

Xiao Liang looked at Aaron, his eyes gradually changed from anticipation to fear: "Ghosts and gods of the underworld... how dare you lie to me?!"

Doesn't it mean that Xu Lingzi lives on the emperor's life, and every extra moment he lives is eroding his life?

Why is it that Xu Lingzi is fine now that the sacrifice to the sky has been completed!

Not only is it all right, but it is also covered in copper skin and iron bones, so it is difficult to damage it even if it is a magic fire blunderbuss? !

"What a true dragon of the heavenly dao! I just forgot to tell you, the poor dao has long been immortal, and will not be worn out for ten thousand kalpas!"

Aaron smiled, and sighed again: "When the country was founded, the poor Taoist wanted to kill a real dragon Taizu to celebrate the peace of the world. In order to have a little affection with His Majesty, I ask His Majesty to give up the title of Son of Heaven and change it. Being the emperor... but now, your majesty has regained the status of the emperor, worthy of a generation of real dragons, so don't blame the pindao for killing a real dragon to sacrifice to heaven!"

"And these two things."

Aaron pointed to the two cowering figures in the crowd: "Thinking that your teacher is seriously injured and the forces in the army have been removed one by one, you can't wait to jump off the boat? Could it be that you have forgotten that I am too involved in Taoism? ?”

With one finger, the two flying swords disappeared, taking the lives of Taichong and Taoist Taihe.

Um……

Although they are personally passed down by the Supreme Master Taoist and have mastered the Dao of Science, they are just two mortals who have no ability to protect themselves and can only be slaughtered...

"As for you..."

Aaron looked at Xiao Liang, regardless of the eunuchs and officials who kowtowed hard to beg for His Majesty's mercy: "Your fate, let the world decide..."

...

the next day.

The Jinshi heavy rain completely dissipated.

The sun rises in the east and shines brightly.

But the people in Jinshi City closed their doors tightly, as if they had encountered some kind of disaster.

Just a few days ago, major incidents happened one after another in the capital, and many big bosses were killed.

Although this has nothing to do with small households like them, one has to be careful.

dungeon.

All the jailors had been replaced by Liujia Shenbing, and the prison was filled with the unlucky ones implicated in this incident and their families.

Especially the 200 nobles who claimed to be on the same day as the country, and the two hundred nobles who were conferred by the founding of the country, were almost half off this time.

Aaron was wearing priestly robes and walking in the prison.

The prisons on both sides became quiet in an instant, and then a middle-aged man grabbed the fence: "National teacher, national teacher... I am Black Douzi... I used to lead a horse for you back then, how could I turn against you? I was wronged ah!"

"Uncle Xingyi...don't pretend any more, I don't even bother to talk about what you have done..."

Aaron shook his head and came to another prison.

This prison is very clean, it is a small house with tables, chairs, benches, a bed, and books!

Zhang Jushi was reading a book, when he saw Aaron coming, he got up and saluted: "I have seen the national teacher."

"You are already a prisoner, so why?"

Aaron went in, sat down directly, and ordered people to serve wine and food.

"Courtesy cannot be discarded!"

Zhang Jushi pursed his lips for a long time before he finally said this sentence: "This time, you are the national teacher and you won...but the famous teacher is free!"

"Is there a heart?"

Aaron laughed: "Do you really think that without Confucianism, there will be chaos in the world? Isn't Liang Guo living well these years?"

"How is Your Majesty?"

Zhang Jushi suddenly asked.

I am afraid that this is the only thing that can make him feel ashamed.

A few days ago, on the Temple of Heaven, Aaron did not directly kill Xiao Liang, but ordered someone to take him down.

"You will know this question soon. This is your meal, so I won't accompany you..."

Aaron got up and came to the female prisoner in the prison.

In a prison, there is only one person, and that is Xiao Zi.

"Meet the Taoist Lord!"

Seeing Aaron's arrival, complex expressions flashed across Xiao Zi's face: "How about my nephew? Sigh... May I live forever, not in the emperor's family. Sincerely speaking!"

"Actually, Emperor Liang didn't have to die." Aaron sighed.

"I believe what the national teacher said, but people in the world may not be willing to believe it. My nephew is even more unbelievable!"

"I didn't lie to you..." Aaron continued: "Although at the beginning, Pindao really had the idea of ​​founding a good country and killing a real dragon to add to the fun, but later Pindao changed his mind... If Your Majesty does not rebel , can give him a way out."

"I have become more than 10,000 people, how can I retreat?" Xiao Zi sneered: "Do you want to feign death to escape, and then hide your name?"

"It's not necessary..." Aaron said with some enthusiasm: "Actually... the best way to break the dragon's energy is to make the emperor worthless... Pindao has already studied it for many years. If your majesty does not Rebellion, after a while, the poor Taoist will confer a thousand or ten thousand emperors in the name of the Supreme Daoist! At that time, everyone will have an emperor, even a woman like you can be enthroned as a generation of female emperors !"

If there are too many emperors, it is worthless.

Xiao Liang naturally didn't have to die.

"This can be regarded as a good beginning and a good end. Everyone can be an emperor. Taiyin and you can both be a female emperor. If there are too many emperors, they are worthless, and there is nothing to fight for and fear..."

Aaron continued to sigh: "However, His Majesty chose another path."

"What way?"

Xiao Zi suddenly had a bad feeling.

"The world is the world of the people in the world, not the world of the only husband!"

"In order to show our ambition, we should vote to kill the real dragon!"

Aaron said calmly: "Whether Xiao Liang lives or dies depends on his fate."

...

Three days later.

Yang Fei, who was forced to stay in Jinshi because of the postponement of the public examination, saw a strange announcement:

"The world is the world of the people in the world, not the world of a single husband... Today, the people of Jinshi referendum to decide the life and death of the emperor!"

Below, there are some rule descriptions.

On the day of voting, a silver bean will be distributed to each of the residents, and then there will be large vats at the Nine Gates of Jinshi.

If you want the emperor to live, you can throw beans into the big vat.

If you want the emperor to die, you can take the silver beans home.

"This... this... Xiaomin is ignorant and greedy for profit. It is clear that he wants to kill the emperor!"

"The great ancestor of a country was murdered? It's an anecdote from ancient times!"

Many people were speechless.

And this is exactly Aaron's purpose. The people's wisdom is not enlightened, and the referendum to kill the emperor is just a farce and a joke!

What he really wants to do is to kill this true dragon of Liang Guo that he has raised with his own hands in an open and aboveboard manner, and completely secure the victory!
