Chapter 297 Prince Ji Man
The prince Ji Man was imprisoned by the King of Zhou and was punished in the East Palace for self-examination and was not allowed to go out.
On this day, he was in his study, and three aides stood in front of him with sad faces, discussing with him the strategy for the Heavenly Master to send troops to kill the Yun family in Yunshan City.
One of the aides said: "Prince, we have to find a way as soon as possible. The Yun family cannot be killed. The Yun family saved tens of thousands of people in Hexin City. This is a meritorious move. How can it be wrong? If the Yun family is killed once, what will happen? Arouse public outrage among the people of the world? ”
Ji Man frowned with a look of deep despair, "Of course I know, but my father listens to the Heavenly Master, so I can't do anything about it."
Another staff member said: "Are you just going to watch the Yun family being killed? Master Wang is dispatched. Even if the Yun family has soldiers protecting the city of Yunshan City, they cannot resist Master Wang."
Another court official said: "It's not necessarily that they can't resist Master Wang. We all know that although the Yun family has been in a corner for a long time, they have close ties with the Immortal Sect. It is said that every generation has disciples who have entered the Immortal Sect. Once the Immortal Sect After getting the news of the incident in the Yun family, how can Master Wang, no matter how powerful he is, win over the people in the Immortal Sect? It is said that everyone in the Immortal Sect can control the wind and rain."
"Didn't the Celestial Master go there in person?" One person said: "The Celestial Master comes from the Feng family, and the Feng family also knows magic. It is said that more than one Celestial Master went with Master Wang, and secretly sent a message to the Feng family's children to help. This move It must be to prevent the Yun family from asking for help from the Immortal Sect.”
"In this way, the Xianmen and the Feng family may be fighting against each other, but it has always been difficult for the big ghosts to fight with the little ghosts. Once they fight, won't it be the people who destroy our fertile land in the Western Zhou Dynasty?" One person said: "What's so big about this?"
Everyone fell silent immediately.
After a while, a person said to Ji Man: "Prince, you have to make an idea. It is best to ask the king to give up his holy intention to kill the Yun family."
"Yes, Prince, now that the Heavenly Master has led the King's Master to leave, maybe you can make the King change his mind? How did the King love the people like a son before? Now he is bewitched by the Heavenly Master."
Ji Man's face was heavy, and he thought for a moment and said: "Can you please send me another letter asking you to meet your father? If you can't see your father, it's useless to say anything."
"You have already handed over hundreds of envelopes to the king, but the king is determined to ignore them. I am afraid that it is your envelope that the king has not even read."
One person gritted his teeth and said, "Prince, why don't you... force me to have a baby?"
"Presumptuous!" Ji Man slapped the case and stood up.
The man knelt on the ground with a bang, "Prince, please calm down. I feel that if this continues, our Western Zhou Dynasty will be over. The king was indeed a wise king before, but now this year, he has been harmed by the heavenly master, and he can no longer be called a wise king." . If you think about the previous dynasty, the Shang and Zhou Dynasties also caused trouble in the palace walls, and at that time people from the immortal world were also involved. , have entered the game one after another. Our ancestors of the Western Zhou Dynasty were mortals, so how many sins have they suffered? How long has it been since the old dynasty was destroyed and the new dynasty was established? Are we, the people of the Western Zhou Dynasty, going to follow in the footsteps of the Shang Dynasty? ”
Ji Man was angry, "But I can't kill my father! How can I be worthy of being a king if I am an unfilial and disloyal person who will bring infamy throughout the ages?"
The man suddenly fell silent.
Since ancient times, we have attached great importance to filial piety, father and son, courtesy, filial piety, integrity, and righteousness. This staff member was also frustrated because of the recent actions of the king, and the prince was depressed. Now that Ji Man retorted, he also shut up.
Ji Man, the crown prince, the reason why all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were attracted to him was naturally because of his benevolence and virtue and outstanding conduct. But it was also because of his many advantages that he still valued him at this point. Filial piety makes it impossible to kill the king and kill the father.
Ji Man asked the other two angrily, "Do you think the same as him?"
The two of them also knelt on the ground and answered in unison, "I don't dare!"
He said he didn't dare, but he knew in his heart that apart from killing his father, His Highness the Crown Prince had been forced to this point and there was no good way to stop the king. The future of the Western Zhou Dynasty made them all worried. The courtiers burned down the city and stained the Jinluan Palace with blood because of their opposition to Hexin City. Many days have passed and they are still vivid in their minds. There is no response from the king to the prince's memorial. It may not be surprising that the prince may be deposed one day.
Ji Man stared at the three people in front of him. Although the latter two said they didn't dare, he knew in his heart that they had the same idea.
He stood for a moment and sat back on the chair slumpedly, "I can't do it alone. You all know what my father was like before. He was just briefly confused recently. Who can make mistakes without being a sage? What my father said is true. The Emperor Long is also a mortal, so he cannot kill his father." He started to take the pen and said, "I will write another note."
The three of them raised their heads, looked at Ji Man, looked at each other, and nodded in unison.
As soon as Ji Man started writing, there was a sudden loud noise outside, a "boom", and violent shaking of the eaves, house, floor, table furnishings, etc.
Two flowerpots and porcelain fell from the shelf and broke into pieces with a "pop" sound.
Ji Man couldn't hold his pen steady, and dropped it, shaking his body along with it. He suddenly asked in shock: "Go and see, what happened?"
One person stood up and rushed out.
Two of the guards guarding the study also left in a hurry.
Ji Man naturally had no intention of writing any more memorials and walked out of the room, with two aides following him.
Soon, someone came to report, "Your Highness, this is the martial arts training ground. I don't know what was left behind. The training ground was smashed into a big hole and it fell out of thin air."
Ji Man walked towards the martial arts training ground and said, "Let's go and have a look."
At the same time, a shout came from the direction of the martial arts training ground, "Protect the prince! It's a demon, it's a demon, the sword can't penetrate it! Demon..."
The guards immediately protected the prince behind him.
Ji Man was protected. He stood there and waited for a long time. When there was no movement in front of him, he ordered, "Get out of the way and go take a look alone."
"Prince, it's dangerous, you can't go!" The staff bravely persuaded: "I'm going to take a look first?"
At this time, someone hurriedly ran over, "It was a big, hard, boat-like thing, over a hundred meters long. There was also a demon, like a pig, which a sword couldn't penetrate, but it was just like a dead thing." , no one was hurt at the moment.”
Ji Man made a decision, "Take Gu Gu to have a look."
The guards spread out a path, but did not dare to relax at all, and supported him towards the martial arts training ground.
The entire East Palace guards had been alerted and almost all gathered in the martial arts training ground, which was densely packed on three floors inside and three outside.
Shan Gao fainted and died. He was stabbed with countless swords but he didn't wake up.
Jiang Lisheng was also fed a high-quality elixir by Wei Qinglan, but he still didn't wake up.
Wei Qinglan calmed down for a moment, and then when she heard "The prince is here", she hugged Jiang Lisheng and walked out of the flying boat.
