Chapter 1318: Loyalty is unpleasant
The temple in front of him was completely different from what he remembered. The waiters were all dumbfounded and opened their mouths unconsciously. Yao, Shunyu, and Shunyu were worried that he would do something bad, so they covered his mouth tightly and pressed it against his ear. Threat: "Don't scream, unless you want to die here today."
The guy's whole body shook a few times, and he really didn't dare to move. Everything in front of him was beyond his understanding.
Jiang Cheng’s eyes focused on the stone steps outside the hall. Through this mysterious light, he clearly saw a wooden box placed on the stone steps. The position was very conspicuous, and... it was the wooden box he handed over. The one for the shopkeeper.
According to the shopkeeper, the mysterious man who knew the inside story agreed to meet them only after seeing the box.
"Mr. Luo, please go and get the box back."
Luo Tianhe felt bad after hearing this. Just now he was willing to act because he was sure that his way out was in the temple, but now looking at it, the temple is also It wasn't simple, but he didn't dare not listen to Jiang Cheng's words, so he made it complicated Under the influence of psychology, Luo Tianhe made up his mind, stepped on the Tiangang Steps, took two steps and took one step back to reach the box. He nervously bent over to pick up the box, but maybe because of the improper use of his fingers, he failed to hold the box firmly. After landing, it opened naturally, revealing the two notes inside.
The names of two people are written in black and white on it.
Jiangcheng.
Wang Fugui.
At this time, everyone also stepped forward. After seeing the note, Jiang Cheng and Fatty were stunned. However, Luo Tianhe, who had escaped the disaster, was relieved. Not only was he relieved, but there was also a burst of joy in his heart. These two guys, King Fugui of Jiangcheng, are really hateful. The presence of their names on the note is a disaster rather than a blessing.
Before Fatty Jiangcheng could figure out the reason, he heard a "squeak" sound, and the originally closed door of the main hall opened. It was only about one-third of the size, which was more than enough for one person to come in and out.
But the strange thing is that when they stand and look into the main hall, it seems that they can only see bright light through a layer of frosted glass, and the inside is blurry.
This scene immediately reminded them of the bus. Looking out through the door, it was a similar scene, because these were completely two worlds.
"Brother Jiang, Brother Wang, you two have to be careful." Luo Tianhe reminded him pretending to be concerned, "I'm afraid this gentleman has a lot of background. Now that your names appear in the box, I guess he is Let the two of you enter the palace together.”
It’s a blessing, not a curse, but disaster cannot be avoided. After Jiang Cheng briefly explained Yao, Shun, Yu and Li Bai, he led the fat man towards the main hall. The moment his body crossed the threshold, his eyes suddenly changed. The next second, the two of them were in a spacious room. In the main hall, the decoration is not luxurious, but it is solemn and simple, with a kind of shocking power.
There is a statue at the end of the hall, but it seems that it is not yet completely completed, and it is covered with a golden cloth.
The cloth is very large, almost completely covering the statue, but from the bulge, you can vaguely make out that the statue is in a sitting position. Even so, it is two feet tall. It is wide and fat, and it actually gives people a look through the cloth. An honest and reliable impression.
Before Jiang Cheng could think about where this familiar feeling came from, a few candles were lit, instantly dispelling part of the darkness in the hall, and a person's figure was reflected in the darkness.
It's just a figure. They can't see the person clearly because the other person is sitting behind a screen, and the candlelight casts the figure on the screen.
"You guys... are here."
A man's voice came from behind the screen. It was a little hoarse, and there was something erratic in it, making it elusive. Even the fat man in Jiangcheng was not familiar with this voice.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiang Cheng raised his hands and replied: "I don't dare not come to your appointment, sir. Today I hope you can clear up my doubts for this junior." There is nothing wrong with being polite before he knows the details of the other party.
"Sit down."
After hearing the man's voice, Fatty Jiangcheng sat on the floor. Facing the mysterious figure behind the screen, Jiangcheng had several guesses in his mind, while Fatty wondered about the hidden figure. The statue was more interesting to him, he just felt it was inexplicably familiar.
"Hun Hou, Wang Yanhou... I haven't heard this name for a long time." The man made a nostalgic voice, and sighed softly after a moment, "In the end, he is just a pitiful and pathetic guy."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng felt relieved a little. He originally thought that the other party's second sentence was so long ago that I almost forgot about it.
Jiang Cheng suspected that the other party was lying, but there was no evidence yet, and he didn't want the other party to reveal his lies now. He could feel that Wu was about to wake up, and it wouldn't take long.
Jiang Cheng is very good at pretending to be confused while pretending to understand. He leaned forward and assumed a respectful attitude, "Sir, I heard that you know a lot about this so-called Hun Hou. What kind of person is he and why? suffered such a disaster."< br>
"Isn't the word "false words" clear enough? He thinks very highly of himself, talks wantonly, and offends too many people, eunuchs, powerful ministers, royal heirs, and even the emperor. Why, don't you think he should die? ?”
"These are just appearances. The guilt should not be determined by whether or not these people are offended. The people are more important than the king. If you are seeking benefits for the people and serving the public, you should not suffer this disaster. Not only should you not, but A book and biography should be written about him, which will be remembered for generations to come.”
These are the words of Jiangcheng. It's not all flattering, that's what he thought in his heart. Judging from the people affected by the curse of the arrogant man, they are all heartless people who seek glory and betrayal. These people died unjustly and did not harm innocent people. On the contrary, they also Stopping many evil deeds and saving people from fire and water.
Liu Xueyi also mentioned in his memories that Hua Touji donated all the money left over from selling the funerary objects to poor people and students. This was not Hua Tou’s original intention. It must have been It was also the order of the so-called tomb owner, the arrogant prince who had gold water poured down his throat and died.
"Hunhou, what a Hunhou! After being tortured, he begged the prime minister to become a marquis. What a joke! What a big joke! He is a small admonisher, how can he be so virtuous and capable? He does not envy other colleagues for seeking their own benefit and whitewashing it. Taiping, he insisted on speaking nonsense in front of hundreds of officials, and his words must affect the people, causing resentment in the court to boil, the powerful ministers angry, and the emperor embarrassed. In the end, he brought this end to himself, but he pitied his wife and children in the mansion, trust His brothers and sisters have been harmed by him and suffered together. It is really difficult to redeem his sins with death!"
"Sir, this is ridiculous. Since the beginning of the admonishment, the admonishment officials have been assigned to inspect the emperor and imprison him! power of hundreds of officials "Hunhou's words in the court must reach the people, and he will not follow the same trend as his colleagues or whitewash peace. This is an act of fulfilling his duties. The loyalty of Hunhou does not depend on the emperor alone, but on the hearts of the people of the world."
"Severe diseases require strong medicine, and good remedies are needed to cure diseases. The words of the Hunhou are just honest words that offend the ears. From what I can see, the Hunhou is no joke. Give him torture, give him the reputation of talking nonsense, and dare not let him speak. What a big joke!”(End of this chapter)
