[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 24 Queen 11

After listening to Xiao Qilang's narration, Li Hong's fair face almost became the bottom of the pot.

Xiao Sanniang was terrified as she watched from the sidelines, she couldn't figure out why her always good-natured brother would suddenly burst out with such a murderous aura...

"Brother..."

"Let's go up and talk about it." Li Hong couldn't help saying that he took Xiao Sanniang's hand and walked into Longma Temple.

Of course Xiao Qilang didn't dare to stop him, he hesitated to speak and followed them up the mountain.

Not long after the three of them left, the remaining Habayashi guards saw the official road in the distance galloping over for a ride.

When the person arrived at the foot of the mountain, he rolled off his horse and said straightly: "By the order of the great general..."

Not to mention that Li Hong brothers and sisters were speechless after they entered Longma Temple and met Jia Dunshi.

But it was said that His Majesty Li Xiaojiu, who had been on a painting boat on the Luoshui River, suddenly sneezed several times, looking like he was catching a cold, which frightened the accompanying civil and military officials.

Even Li Sanlang doubted whether His Majesty the Emperor was really caught cold by the wind, so he stepped forward to ask for instructions.

"Emperor, the wind on the water..."

Before he could finish speaking, His Majesty the Emperor continued with a smile and said, "What Li Xiang said is, why don't you drive to Longma Temple for a rest..."

Mr. Li: "..." He knew it would happen.

Most of the civil and military officials present did not know why Jia Langjun stayed at Ryoma Temple. Now that His Majesty the Emperor said that he would visit Ryoma Temple, many people could not help guessing that it would not be what Jia Langjun prepared at Ryoma Temple. Good things should be dedicated to His Majesty the Emperor, right?

(Onion: It's the truth...)

Of course, there are still many well-informed officials who have already inquired about the "God Turtle" that Jia Langjun salvaged in Luoshui that day, and they all secretly thought that Jia Langjun would love the Emperor. The news of the palace tour is ready--for several months, His Majesty the Emperor has been quite enthusiastic about Buddhism and Taoism, but after all, the Emperor came to the Eastern Capital to recuperate. court!

For a moment, everyone present wanted to see what kind of 'surprise' the always stern and selfless Jia Lang had prepared for His Majesty the Emperor.

To say it was a surprise, it was really not bad at all.

A group of officials from Luozhou followed Shengjia to Longma Temple, but they saw that along the way there were guards from Habayashi, as if they knew that the emperor was going to visit here.

Everyone couldn't help but shuddered in their hearts.

When they arrived at the temple, all the people lost their minds on looking at the scenery and listening to the abbot of Longma Temple talk about the origin of Longma Temple.

On the contrary, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu listened with great interest, and asked if he had asked, but did not mention Jia Langjun's affairs.

Everyone felt as if they were being scratched by hundreds of cats' paws, but they didn't dare to speak up.

While feeling uncomfortable, Jia Langjun, who was envied and hated by everyone, came out from the back hall to see him.

What surprised them even more was that the two youths following Jia Dunshi looked like the deceased "filial piety to the emperor"?

"My minister pays homage to the Emperor." Jia Langjun was wearing a short jacket, looking like an ordinary farmer.

Since taking office in Luozhou, Jia Dunshi has often gone to the countryside in this outfit to inspect water conservancy and farming, and officials in Luozhou have become accustomed to his civilian attire.

However, today is an important occasion for picking up the driver, Jia Langjun is still dressed like this, it is simply disrespectful!

Jia Dunshi ignored the complicated gazes cast by his colleagues and subordinates, and after saluting to His Majesty Li Xiaojiu calmly, he took the initiative to bring up the matter of the stone turtle.

"There is a saying in ancient books: dragon pictures come out of the river, turtle books come out of Luo......"

"It's just that... this humble minister has little talent and learning, and can't stand up to what the picture and text on the stone turtle's back say..."

Having said that, Jia Dunshi raised his head and glanced at His Majesty Li Xiaojiu, his eyes were full of prudence.

His Majesty Li Xiaojiu pretended not to see Jia Dunshi's scrutiny, and said with surprise on his face: "I never thought that I would be lucky enough to see the Luoshu River Picture..."

After saying that, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu immediately went to the inner hall first.

When Jia Dunshi saw that His Majesty the Emperor was such a scoundrel, he just identified the stone turtle of unknown origin as the tortoise dedicated to the Luoshu River Picture, and he couldn't help sighing heavily.

Li Hong, who was standing behind Jia Dunshi, heard his sigh, could only smile wryly and stepped forward, "Why should Mr. Jia Lang sigh, let's go inside and watch the stone turtle together..."

Jia Dunshi sighed again, but didn't say anything else, and raised his hand to ask Li Hong and his sister to go first.

Not to mention Jia Dunshi, an old official in the officialdom, and Li Hong, the former prince, even the young lady has already seen that this trip to Luoshui and the stone turtle that appeared inexplicably belonged to His Majesty the Emperor. handwriting.

As for what His Majesty the Emperor is going to do, the three have different thoughts.

Li Hong was worried that the stone tortoise was made for his father, mother and Erlang's people, but now that he knew that his father directed it, he felt relieved, and he didn't care what his father was going to do.

Come to think of it, it's probably because of his mother that he created such a strange stone turtle...

But he said that everyone knelt behind the emperor and went to the backyard of Longma Temple. After seeing the stone turtle, they all took a breath by coincidence.

The stone statue in front of me is not so much a big turtle, but a dragon with four legs, a tail and a shell!

When His Majesty Li Xiaojiu saw this big stone statue, he was also surprised.

His Majesty Li Xiaojiu's expression became unfathomable when he saw the Nine Palaces on the back of the stone turtle and a line of ancient Chinese characters similar to seal script.

Mr. Li, who was accompanying him, naturally also saw the picture and text on the turtle's back, and couldn't help but be surprised.

He has worked in Chongwen Museum for many years, and he also prefers to study ancient books. It can be said that he has some understanding of various calligraphy fonts of the previous generation.At that time, His Majesty Li Er was also a good calligrapher, and he also liked to collect ancient inscriptions. There are many rare calligraphy inscriptions in the Chongwen Museum, almost all of which have been studied by Li Sanlang.

Li Sanlang claimed to have a lot of knowledge, but today he saw the ancient writing on the back of the turtle, and he felt unrecognizable.

In fact, there are only eight characters in the ancient characters on the back of the turtle.

Afterwards, all the officials who came forward to watch the 'God Turtle' looked strange.

When the three of Li Hong arrived, they saw that all the officials in the room were silent, and even looked a little panicked.

Li Hong's heart couldn't help but 'thump'.

What's going on here?

Before Li Hong could speak, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu over there suddenly chuckled and said, "I've heard that Prime Minister Li is very knowledgeable, why don't you explain to me and Zhuqing what the ancient script on the turtle's back means?"

Hearing this, Li Sanlang didn't look surprised, he just raised his eyebrows slightly, as if to say: It really is so.

He was about to speak, but suddenly he heard someone speak hastily ahead of him.

"Emperor, the ancient text on the tortoise says that the Empress Dowager is a sage in this world, and with the Empress' help, the Tang Dynasty will surely prosper as the Emperor!"

Everyone turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.

I saw Jia Dunshi and the two young men standing there with different expressions.

The words just now were obviously spoken by the older young man behind Jia Langjun.

Jia Dunshi was the first person to understand the ancient text on the stone turtle, and his mood at that time was probably exactly the same as that of the civil and military officials present...

"What this little man said is true." Jia Dunshi took a step forward, expressing his support for Li Hong's previous remarks.

The rest of the civil and military officials seemed to be waking up from a dream, and they all spoke in agreement with Jia Dunshi.

However, Mr. Li remained silent.

And His Majesty Li Xiaojiu, who asked Xiao Li Xianggong to explain the ancient prose on the stone turtle by name, also had a very ugly expression at this time.

After all the calculations, he didn't figure it out, his family's big man will come and make trouble.

Li Hong's scalp was numb from her father's sad eyes, but he was still glad that he spoke out in time to relieve the man's siege.

but……

Someone failed to accept his love.

"The Holy Mother is here, and the emperor's career will prosper forever."

One sentence made all the civil and military officials who were present talking and praising the emperor's virtue feel as if they had been strangled, their mouths gaped, their eyes widened and they couldn't speak.

Li Hong saw that Li Sanlang spoke out the ancient characters on the back of the turtle without any scruples, and rushed to stop him anxiously—these eight characters were simply trying to provoke the relationship between the two sages.

No, Li Hong just took a step when he was pulled back by the little Sanniang and Jia Dunshi beside him.

"You..." Li Hong looked at the two of them in astonishment, not understanding why they could still maintain such a calm expression.

"Brother, please be safe and don't be impatient..." Xiao Sanniang shook her head at her brother with a serious face.

But Jia Dunshi said directly: "The emperor's holy will is not clear, sir, don't be reckless!"

Li Hong's face turned pale instantly.

At this time, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu asked Li Sanlang with a smile: "What Li Xiang means... Could it be that the Holy Mother will come to this world to endure calamities, and there will be a world?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the backyard gasped, and the movement of the sound of breathing was really spectacular.

Li Sanlang was not afraid at all, and said with a smile: "What the Emperor said is wrong, if this Holy Mother is not the Queen of Heaven, who else is she?"

"First, when the Emperor of Heaven first came to the throne, there was a secret record among the people: 'Li Hong came to the world, and the world was ruled'. : "The Holy Maiden of Pure Light went down to the mortal world, learned the Dharma and became enlightened, and was assisted by the Wheel-Turning King.

"Since the marriage between the Queen of Heaven and the Emperor, the world has been peaceful, the barbarians have surrendered, and the empire has stretched for thousands of miles. It is a reversal of the disadvantages of the days when Chu Suiliang and others were in power..."

"Among them, the Empress Dowager has done a great job!"

Although Li Sanlang's words made many people in the room nod and secretly agree, how could he say those words so blatantly?

Doesn't this imply that the Emperor abdicated to the Empress Dowager?

Didn't you see that the clean-up of the officialdom some time ago was caused by a non-existent "edict to pass on the throne"?

Once the matter involves the throne, even the closest relatives and loved ones can be killed!

As a minister, it is best not to get involved in this kind of thing.

The struggle for the heir apparent in the last years of Zhenguan, and the scourge of witchcraft in the early years of Xianqing, are not far from the past!

Now, seeing the emperor's health getting worse and worse, and the power to control the government is getting weaker and weaker...

The emperors of this period are often the scariest!

Today, if they fail to figure out the Sacred Heart, it is the rhythm of the head landing
