Chapter 540: Confused
It’s been a long time since the people in the world have been directing the imperial court, and it’s been a long time since the people in the world have been keeping the prince straight!
Although Wang Luo's complaint against the current crown prince shocked everyone, it seemed arrogant but was actually reasonable and was even supported by public opinion. The common people at the bottom of Daxia Kingdom, the gentry, and even many knowledgeable people with titles all felt unhappy, which was ignited by Wang Luo.
Although it was only ignited and would not incite people to take to the streets to rebel, it was enough to show what the people wanted.
Since the Dengwen Drum is made from the skin of a sacred animal, it naturally has magical effects. Hearing it can lift your spirits and make you feel righteous in your heart.
The old emperor was on his deathbed, and the shadow of Queen Gao in his eyes had gradually blurred into a white mist. He thought he would die like this.
But looking back on his life, Emperor Tiande admitted that he had merits and demerits. However, when he was in power, he was gentle and virtuous, and he often implemented benevolent governance. During his century-long emperor's life, he did his duty at any rate. Except for being ill in his later years and being bedridden, political affairs were a priority. Gave it to the prince.
As for the queen's involvement in politics, Tiande also knew about it, so they just said that mother and son supported each other and didn't take it too seriously.
Just as the old emperor was dying, all kinds of past events were already flashing through his mind.
But suddenly a thumping drum sound exploded in my head, just like the sound in a nightmare.
So the old emperor immediately opened his cloudy eyes, and sat up suddenly. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the shocked Queen Gao next to him, with pain and tears at the corners of his eyes.
Empress Gao was wiping her tears with a brocade handkerchief in her hand. She never thought that the old emperor would lower his hands, but suddenly he sat upright.
Could it be a fake corpse?
But His Majesty also lost his sister.
Therefore, the two of them looked at each other in shock. The old emperor was wondering where the sound of bells and drums came from, while Queen Gao looked at the old emperor who was full of lifeless energy but came back to life.
"Your Majesty~" Queen Gao reacted in time and threw herself into the old man's arms. The old man's skinny figure couldn't bear the impact of her. She leaned on the bed and coughed violently twice. Queen Gao quickly stood up and called the maid in the palace.
But he was held back by the old emperor.
"Let them... prepare... their uniforms... I want to go to court."
After a while, the ornately decorated black gowns were presented by the palace ladies. The gowns were divided into upper and lower garments. The garments were decorated with dragons, suns, moons, stars, mountains, Chinese insects, Zongyi, algae, and It is decorated with twelve chapters of fire, pink rice, 黼, and 黻, and there are also accessories such as knee coverings, leather belts, large belts, and ribbons.
The emperor would only wear it during the most important sacrifices and other occasions. The old emperor summoned the robe to wear it at this time, probably to experience the majesty of the emperor for the last time before his death.
The Dengwen drum made by Haezhi actually knocked the emperor's departing soul back into his body, allowing the emperor to shine again. It was miraculous to be able to attend the court meeting in person.
——
The civil and military officials were divided into two groups, witnessing Emperor Tiande being helped up... For a moment, the veterans in the hall recalled that when the young emperor was high-spirited and vigorous, he was walking vigorously, but now he needs someone to carry him to the dragon throne. Decayed.
Anyone with cultivation skills present could feel a strong death aura emanating from the dragon chair.
The thin face of Emperor Tiande was also looming under the crown.
"My lord, please come to see Your Majesty!"
Since Emperor Tiande fell ill, he rarely went to court. Now that he is about to die, people feel sad in their hearts, including the chief minister of the cabinet and the old chief minister who has followed the emperor for decades.
His surname is Yu and his given name is Xiu Bai. He was the number one scholar appointed by the emperor during the imperial examination, and he was a protégé of the emperor who was highly praised by the emperor.
Now, he has become a hobbling old man.
He had long been qualified not to kowtow or kneel, but he actually slowly bent down, put his hands on the ground, and slowly lowered his head...
At the head of the hundred officials, the chief assistant kowtowed with trembling white sleeves, and the rest of the people followed suit and kowtowed: "Ministers, I kowtow to your majesty, long live my emperor!"
"Long live my emperor!"
Seeing all the officials kneeling and kowtowing, Emperor Tiande felt as if he had returned to the time when he ascended the throne, when he was in his prime and full of high spirits. At that time, he deliberately lowered his voice: "All the ministers are equal..."
The old emperor opened his mouth, but found that he could hardly make a loud sound, so he had to let the eunuch be in charge of the ceremony. This white-haired old man who had accompanied the emperor since he was a child, repeated in a deep voice: "Your Majesty said, please humerus The minister is in peace."
It was Yu Baixiu who stood up first, followed by all the officials.
The eunuch holding the seal asked: "Your Majesty, who is beating the drum? Has anyone come to the court?"
Yu Xiubai cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it is Wang Luo, the chief arrester of the six sects, who beats the drum to complain."
"Xuan, the chief arrester of the six gates, Wang Luo, is here to see you!"
Immediately, a serving officer shouted loudly, and the sound spread all the way, and there were people shouting in succession.
Looking out from the vermilion gate of Taihe Hall.
After shouting, a black spot appeared outside the dragon steps, coming slowly. When he came to the bottom of the steps, he took off the saber from his waist and placed it on the railing.
The imperial guards in the capital were also in darkness, following Wang Luo to the entrance of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
However, they seemed to have no intention of laying down their weapons, and surrounded the main entrance of Taihe Hall with a watertight crowd.
If he hadn't known that they were the Forbidden Army, this posture was clearly a rebellion... If Tiande still had a few breaths of life, he would definitely kill a lot of heads, but now that he is too old and weak, looking at the dark armed soldiers, he didn't even say a word. He didn't say anything, pretending he didn't see it.
On the contrary, the civil and military officials were frightened and cursed in their stomachs: "What an ugly appearance. Your Majesty has not yet had Bintian, so the prince and Qi Tingjian are so arrogant? Although your Majesty handed over the military power in advance before his death, the imperial army is now besieging the city. , so what?"
In fact, the Forbidden Army also had this doubt. You must know that the Forbidden Army only obeyed the emperor himself. If the superiors ordered to enter the court, not many people would resist. Fortunately, the superiors only said to guard the Taihe Palace to prevent bandits.
Moreover, it was said above that His Majesty himself had told them that once Bintian was over, they would be the Crown Prince's imperial army, and it was reasonable to obey the Crown Prince's orders.
At this time, Qi Tingjian walked out of the Forbidden Army with a knife in hand, with a stern expression on his face. However, when he walked to the front and appeared in the eyes of the officials, his face was expressionless. He threw away the knife in his hand and followed Wang Luo. Entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"My humble minister Wang Luo, I bow to Your Majesty...Your Majesty...Long live, long live, long live."
Wang Luo thought about it and kowtowed to the emperor. No matter what, the emperor was worthy of Wang Luo's kowtow.
Seeing Wang Luo kowtow, the old emperor felt some emotion in his eyes...but his rotten heart could not support him showing too much emotion.
"I am a humble minister, please pay homage to Your Majesty."
Qi Tingjian did not kneel.
When Qi Tingjian walked in, the entire hall was eerily silent. The feeling of coercion brought by this powerful official in the dynasty, a veteran with military power, was probably second only to the old chief minister. In people's hearts, there may be only one person who can overwhelm him in terms of momentum.
That is the military god Wang Xuanba.
It's a pity that Wang Xuanba has already left the court and became the "head of Guizhou in the wild".
In the past, the old emperor would ask someone to give him a seat. For example, the chief minister, the vassal king and others would all have their own soft stool in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
It's a pity that the atmosphere today is not right. No eunuch dared to bring up a stool and ask these ministers with murderous faces to sit down and speak in a harmonious manner.
everybody knows.
At this time, the mountain rain was about to come and the wind filled the building.
Those who do not have enough weight today should remain silent when they should, otherwise they may be killed.
Except for a group of people, they are waiting, waiting for an opportunity to criticize. They are officials and admonishers. Their primary goal in the court is to expose the truth and impeach and criticize.
They regard themselves as loyal martyrs and are willing to die in exchange for the reputation of "keeping their loyalty in history." They dare to impeach the elders and princes, and they even dare to openly oppose the emperor in the court.
But seemingly arrogant and rebellious, they are also the last backbone of the country. The censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the six subjects of the Ministry of Education... these are all low-ranking officials.
But it is these officials of low rank who boldly criticize the current ills on weekdays, and it is not a problem to directly criticize others.
They are a special group of people in the court, and they are also a very powerful group of people.
Wang Luo glanced at the civil and military officials. Each of these people held their belts, or twirled their beards, or squinted their eyes, or pretended to avert their eyes while observing secretly, or lowered their heads and looked up at the two boards, seeming to have made up their minds to be that turtle. The grandson paid no attention to anything.
Then Wang Luo smiled contemptuously, and then he heard the eunuch's question.
"Sir Wang, Your Majesty asks you why you are beating the Dengwen drum."
Wang Luo stood upright, and in the eyes of a group of veteran officials, he looked so dissolute and did not even do any courtesy: "I want to reveal to your majesty that in the palace, there are thieves who manipulate power and ruin the country, and harm the loyal and good people!"
——
Taoist Lingbao has the highest seniority, so he is also the one who presides over the entire Fengchan ceremony——
Since the ceremony started in a hurry, all the ceremonies before the ceremony - welcoming the gods, offering gifts, etc. had to be cancelled.
Directly carry out the ceremony to the last step, which is also the most direct step, washing the title - leaving a name on the imperial monument.
Leaving his name on the imperial monument is the last thing Qi Jinyu has to do. Only by successfully carving his name on the monument can he guide the imperial aura to himself.
After leaving your name, you can transform yourself into a human emperor.
But is it really as simple as described in words? Wouldn't that mean that someone could be found at random, leave their name on a stone tablet, and become an emperor?
Not to mention that all the disciples of the Tianxia sect need to use special techniques to open the Fengchan platform. Whether they can survive the Fengchan platform is a life-threatening hurdle.
As mentioned before, only emperors can confer Zen. Those who are not emperors and non-dragons who ascend the Zen conferment platform will only be imbued with dragon energy and die because of their destiny and the incompatibility between their vitality and dragon energy.
There is no whole body in death.
It directly turns into a line of blue smoke, and even the soul will not remain. No matter what kind of spirit, transformation spirit, or Mahayana you are riding on the horse, it will all be wiped out.
What is even more terrifying is that this is the emperor chosen by nature. Even if the immortal came to enshrine it, he would be buried here.
No wonder Lingbao Taoist people are suspicious, but after all, Qiao Feng's prestige is here, and it's really puzzling to do it knowing that it can't be done.
