When Amitabha returned to the Taoist mansion, he was very angry at the failure of the plan to eliminate Chi You today. He originally thought that with their stupidity and wisdom, the group of people could persuade Jiuli Patriarch to execute Chi You.
He thought that as long as Chi You was removed, and then the ancestor of Jiuli disappeared, he would be the king of Jiuli. By then, the Yao family would be able to enjoy all the glory and wealth in the world and be respected by everyone in the world.
The more Mi Tuo thought about it, the angrier he became. He waved his sleeves and all the cups on the table fell to the ground, and the pieces were scattered all over the floor.
Amitabha said angrily: "Old Patriarch Jiuli, you are obviously protecting your shortcomings, that's why you have been reluctant to sentence Chi You."
Mi Tuo's anger attracted Yao. She opened the door and saw broken cups and cups on the floor. Looking at the anger on Mi Tuo's face, she knew that Mi Tuo must have encountered something unpleasant again.
Yao didn't say anything. She slowly knelt down to clean up the debris on the ground. Seeing this, the anger in Mi Tuo's heart passed away unknowingly, and the unhappiness turned into heartache for Yao.
Amitao walked up to Yao Shi, gently helped Yao Shi up, and said apologetically: "Madam, I'm sorry, I made you worry again.
Madam, let the servants handle this! Be careful of scratching your hands. "
Mrs. Yao asked with concern: "Did the prince encounter anything troublesome again?"
Amitabha said: "It's nothing. Madam, there is no need to worry so much."
Mrs. Yao said uneasily in her heart: "The prince always says this, no matter what happens, you always bear it silently alone, making me feel that I am so useless and can't help you with anything."
"Madam, you must not have such thoughts. Having you by my side is already a great support for me from my wife. Everything else will be borne by me. I just want you to be well and happy." Just live.”
Yao Lan and Cuiying arrived just at this time. They saw broken porcelain pieces on the ground and didn't know what was going on, so they didn't dare to say anything at the door.
Seeing this, Mrs. Yao ordered: "Yao Lan, Cuiying, come and tidy up this place."
Yao Lan and Cuiying entered the room timidly, carefully picking up the pieces as quickly as possible, and then hurriedly left here. After all, Mi Tuo's fierce eyes were like a sharp sword hanging above their heads, which could be taken away at any time. Both of their lives.
Yao saw that Mi Tuo was in a bad mood, and the only thing he could do for him now was to accompany him for a walk in the garden, hoping to make him feel better.
"Your Majesty, I will accompany you to the garden for a walk!"
Amitabha couldn't refuse and followed Yao to the garden.
After Mi Tuo and Yao Shi left, Yao Lan and Cui Ying took a deep breath. Yao Lan said: "Cui Ying, you don't know, my heart was almost in my throat just now. I was so nervous that I almost couldn't breathe." .”
Cuiying said: "No, I don't know why. When we see the prince, it's like seeing the God of Death. He always makes us feel like we are on the verge of death."
Yao Lan said: "Maybe it's because the prince's hands are stained with a lot of people's blood. In addition, the prince keeps a straight face all day long, just like the king of hell. How can he make people not afraid?"
As soon as these words came out, Cuiying quickly looked outside the door to confirm that the wall had no ears. She said in a panic: "You don't want to live anymore, how dare you say such words? If it reaches the ears of the prince, you I don’t even want to live anymore.”
Yao Lan said: "Sometimes I really don't want to live anymore. Living such a fearful life in this prince's mansion all day long, I really feel like life is worse than death. If it weren't for my wife, I wouldn't want to stay here any longer. .”
Cuiying smiled and said: "What crazy words are you talking about? An ant can still live without a living, let alone a human being. How can anyone want to die for nothing?"
…
Under the court, Elder Furukawa and Elder Haoran met at Juxian Tower. They booked a private room. General Chi Li guarded the door, keeping a private conversation space for Elder Furukawa and Elder Haoran.
Elder Furukawa and the others began to talk about the secrets in their hearts and the important national affairs of the Jiuli clan in front of fine wine and delicacies. Elder Furukawa said: "I wonder what Elder Haoran thinks of the matters discussed in court today?"
Elder Haoran drank a cup of wine and said: "The rain is coming and the wind is filling the building. This is a sign before the storm is coming."
Elder Gu He asked in confusion: "What do you mean by Elder Haoran's words?"
Elder Haoran smiled sadly and said, "Didn't the elder realize that there was something unusual in Yu Zhi De's behavior during today's morning court?"
Elder Guhe said: "Abnormal? Why didn't I see it? Yuzhi and his group have always been like this. Don't forget that Yuzhi and the others have always used the law to deal with Prince Chiyou. Their behavior now is different from what they did at the beginning. There was nothing unusual about his behavior, so there is nothing strange about today’s morning court meeting.”
"Didn't the elder find out? Although Yuzhi has always taken a legal attitude toward Prince Chiyou, there has been no communication between Yuzhi and the others and the uncertain Prince Amitabha. But today, In the early morning court, the behavior of Yuzhi and Prince Amitabha would not appear a bit ambiguous."
Furukawa's heart tightened and he said: "What the elder means is that Yu Zhi and others are colluding with Amitabha."
"At present, this possibility cannot be ruled out."
"Why do Yuzhi and the others do this?"
"Maybe Prince Amitabha can give them what they want!"
Elder Furukawa said angrily: "Shameful, aren't they satisfied with what they have now? What do they want?"
"Desire is a torrent in the human heart that cannot be escaped. It is a demon lurking in everyone's heart. Only people with noble integrity can suppress the demon in their hearts."
Elder Furukawa said uneasily: "As you said, Amitabha's intention is not just the 'Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic'?"
"Ability is the catalyst for ambition. The greater the ability, the greater the ambition. If the 'Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic' is really as the legend says, under the confusion of the 'Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic', Prince Amitabha wants more than just Jiuli, but the entire world, and the entire three realms."
Elder Furukawa jumped up and said angrily: "I think he is just wishful thinking. We must stop him, otherwise the whole world will become purgatory, and the entire three realms will suffer accordingly."
Elder Haoran drank another drink and said: "Yes, if we could find out the evidence earlier that Prince Amitabha stole the scroll of "Seven Evil Blood Refining Technique", everything would be easier to handle."
Elder Furukawa also uneasily drank a glass of wine to calm his uneasy mind and said: "I hope he can find some clues about Amitabha."
Elder Haoran heard this and said, "It seems that the elder must have arranged for someone to monitor every move of Prince Amitabha."
Elder Furukawa said: "I just don't know if he can find evidence that Mi Tuo committed the crime."
Elder Haoran said: "Amitabha is not what he used to be. It is not easy to get close to him and find evidence of his crimes. You must be careful, otherwise you will be in big trouble."
Elder Furukawa said: "Thank you for your concern, elder. We will act with caution. We also ask Elder Haoran to think of other ways to prevent this catastrophe."
Elder Haoran raised his glass, took a sip of wine, and said, "It seems that this time I have to go to that gloomy ghost market. Maybe there is the answer I want there."
Elder Furukawa said: "Then let's split up."
Elder Haoran said: "This matter can be put aside for the time being. There is one thing that needs to be dealt with urgently, and we must reach a consensus. Otherwise, even if we solve the matter of the 'Qi Sha Blood Refining Magic', it will be difficult for Jiuli to do it again." live."
Elder Furukawa asked in confusion: "What's the matter? It's so urgent and so serious?"
"Prince Chiyou is now deeply loved by the people of the 81 tribes of Jiuli. If something happens to him, the other 80 tribes of Jiuli will definitely raise their troops in Jiuli City. Then the war is about to break out, and Jiuli will be involved in a war between the same tribes. In the flames of fratricidal war, when the time comes, the hard-won peaceful situation in Jiuli will soon end, and Jiuli will return to the era of being at the mercy of others.
Now Elder Amitabha wants Prince Chiyou to die. In addition to wanting the throne of Jiuli, he also wants the evil spirit generated in the smoke of war for him to practice the 'Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic'. "
Elder Furukawa said: "As you said, this is indeed an urgent and difficult matter that needs to be solved. Looking at Jiuli now, the king is already old. Among the younger generation of Jiuli, I am afraid that the one who can hold the power of Jiuli is There is only Prince Chiyou, if anything happens to him, Jiuli will indeed fall into war."
"So we must ensure the safety of Prince Chi You, and at least delay the sentencing of Prince Chi You until the matter of the 'Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic' has been dealt with. I think this is why the king imprisoned Prince Chi You in the Heavenly Prison. .”
"You said that when the king imprisoned Prince Chi You in the sky prison, he did not really want to punish him, but to protect Prince Chi You."
"That's right! I wasn't sure before. After today's morning meeting, I understood the original intention of the king. The king had long expected that there would be a disaster in Jiuli. In order to protect Prince Chi You, the king used Prince Chi You to tamper with the military supplies at Yinshan Pass. Let’s put Prince Chi You into the heavenly prison. Firstly, we can stop everyone from talking about it, and secondly, we can protect Prince Chiyou.”
"It turns out that your Majesty has been prepared for a long time. It seems that we elders and ministers are not as long-term as your Majesty in thinking about things. If I am not wrong, when your Majesty first summoned us to discuss Chiyou's affairs in the Imperial Study Room, your Majesty started to make plans. Prince Chiyou was taken to the heavenly prison for protection."
"The elder is right. At that time, the king began to plan for this, so the king called the stubborn old man to challenge us, so that the king could make arrangements."
Elder Gu He said angrily: "It's a pity that your Majesty didn't expect that that foolish fool with no integrity would turn against him and insist on putting Chi You to death."
"I'm afraid that the king still doesn't know about the alliance between Yuzhi and Amitabha. We don't have any real evidence to prove all this. What we have to do now is to find out the evidence of Prince Amitabha's crime as soon as possible and punish him. At that time, Yuzhi When the crowd is leaderless, it will naturally defeat itself."
Elder Furukawa said: "It seems that this is the only way we can do it now. The two of us must seize the time to bring Amitabha to justice, otherwise it may be too late. When he masters the 'Seven Evil Blood Refining Evil Technique', we Jiuli and even The entire Three Realms will not be able to escape disaster.”
The two of them felt an invisible pressure on their bodies, as if there were several mountains pressing on them, almost making them unable to breathe.
The two of them drank a glass of wine together. Elder Haoran stood up and walked to the window to open it. He looked at the unknown distance outside the window. He was as confused as he was about Jiuli's future. He wondered whether Jiuli could escape this disaster?
