Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 174 The Vortex of Political Struggle 10
Some people who believed in gods and Buddhas seemed to understand that they hurriedly stopped those who were about to move and prevented them from coming forward, for fear of offending the gods.

Sheng Zhang got up, his whole body was in a panic, he shouted angrily, "Come here, come here, take down this lunatic who despised the prince."

"Who dares to take the real person?"

In front of the left and right halls, the officers and officers of the imperial guards looked at each other, each of them was hesitant, and few of them dared to step forward.

Shocked and angry, Sheng Zhang almost jumped up and shouted, regardless of his clothes which were soaked by the drizzle, "Get it for me quickly, and the officials of Kaifeng government will take it for me."

Under the high pressure, some people still wavered, several long lines pretended to be brave and surrounded them, but Tang Ge waved his hand and said sharply: "Slow." Then he cupped his hands to Zhao Huan and said: "Your Highness, there is a reason for the incident, first ask Wang Zhige before making any plans. "

Zhao Huanke was on fire, snorted and stopped talking.

Sheng Zhang couldn't take care of that much anymore, Tang Ge was the minister of the Ministry of Industry, but he knew about the affairs of the Kaifeng government, Tang Ge couldn't control him, and immediately shouted: "You bastard, hurry up and take down the madman."

But he said, looking at the drizzle outside anxiously, Zhao Ji said slowly: "The prince retreats, can he succeed?"

Lin Lingsu stood aside, and said calmly: "The crown prince is from the Shangqing lineage, and Wang Xiu is from the Taiqing lineage. This flood was originally caused by them, and there is nothing anyone can do about it except them."

"You Taoist priest is full of nonsense." Zhao Fujin turned around the corner of the hall, walked quickly to the entrance of the main hall, gave Lin Lingsu a very unfriendly look, and said loudly: "Daddy, I heard that Daddy asked eldest brother and Wang Zhige to retreat. Who can they return!"

The corner of Zhao Ji's mouth twitched, and his affectionate daughter continued to talk about Wang Xiu, but he couldn't harden his heart on this beautiful daughter, so he could only smile and say: "But let them try, if it doesn't work, there is no way."

"Father, this is a golden word! Don't play tricks." Zhao Fujin pulled Zhao Ji's sleeve and acted coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, okay, dad is a golden talker, when did he lie to you." Zhao Ji had no choice but to get Zhao Fujin to pester her, and said, "Hurry up and go to the saint's place, in case something happens, I will board the dragon boat with the saint."

"Understood." Zhao Fujin gouged out Lin Lingsu's eyes bitterly, let go of Zhao Ji and retreated obediently.

Looking at Zhao Fujin's back and turning around the corner of the hall, Lin Lingsu's eyes flickered with desire, but it was immediately covered up, and he said with a bit of fairy air: "Emperor Maode Ji is a fairy from the Shenxiao Mansion, Your Majesty should have chosen it earlier. A good match for a fairy official."

These words reached Zhao Ji's heart, he twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Sir, Wang Xiuhe and Brother Thirteen, which one is better?"

Lin Lingsu took a breath, made a decision in a flash, and said respectfully: "Wang Xiu is not an immortal from the Shenxiao Mansion, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to accompany Empress Maode, but Brother Thirteen is gentle and elegant, and he is the concubine of Empress Maode."

"Yeah." Zhao Heng smiled and sighed, "Fourth brother Cai and Mr. do not get along, but Mr. helps him over and over again."

Before continuing, Lin Lingsu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had made the right move. He showed his dignity in front of Zhao Ji and resolved the previous displeasure.

"Sir, this water..." Zhao Ji didn't finish his sentence, when suddenly there was a thunderous sound from Miaomiao Yinkong, which made his face pale.

Not only Zhao Ji, but more than one million people in Kaifeng all changed their colors. There had never been such a thunderous sound, and all the timid ones screamed again and again.

Nine consecutive thunderclaps stunned the people at the top of the city, even Zhao Huan's face changed suddenly, panicked, for fear that a thunder would strike him, and many people were frightened and sat down on the ground, or else they would die. After urinating their pants, several long liners were too frightened to step forward, and dropped their weapons one after another.What a joke, I want to raise the knife, and when a thunderbolt comes down, wouldn't it be a burp from being smashed?
Wang Xiu was calm and composed, and said indifferently: "A group of ants actually offended this real person. Whoever dares to take a step forward will eat a Kwai Shui God Thunder first."

The city was completely silent, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what Wang Xiu was up to, but those who thought they were smarter immediately realized that Wang Xiu was possessed by a certain god!
Zhao Huan swallowed hard and procrastinated, blinked his eyes and said nothing, no one knew what he was thinking.

Sheng Zhang was terrified and at a loss, no matter whether he spoke wildly or contrived, he didn't want to ask any more, this was too frighteningly frightening.He just wanted to hurry home, drink a few sips of wine, and listen to the beautiful little concubine singing.

Tang Ge took a deep breath. He was startled by Lei, but he is a standard Confucian who respects ghosts and gods at a respectful distance. The strangeness of Wang Xiu and the sky made him uneasy. He stepped forward boldly and asked cautiously. : "Wang Zhige, how is Wang Zhige?"

But Wang Xiu glanced at Tang Ge lightly, and said with disdain, "Who are you? Well, you are a Confucian University with a noble and upright spirit?"

Tang Ge's eyelids twitched, and he complained that Wang Xiu was too good at pretending, but he didn't dare to go too far. The thunder just now was too terrifying, and Wang Xiu's changes were too weird.Thinking that there is no obvious benefit, pretending to be a ghost and calling the prince by name, the risk and benefit are not directly proportional, Wang Xiu decided that he had no reason to do that, he still suppressed his doubts, and said: "Who are you?"

Wang Xiu glanced coldly, but did not answer. Instead, she pinched her fingers with one palm, and chanted some incantations with her lips moving. Then, with one arm behind her back and the other arm pointing to the cloudy sky, she said sharply, "Jiji!" Just like the laws and decrees, according to the decree of the old king, wait for the wind, rain, thunder and lightning to recede quickly, and the dragon god and Hebo will quickly collect the water, the flood will subside tonight, and the sun will rise in the east tomorrow."

Everyone at the scene turned pale with shock, what does this mean, enshrining the decree of the old monarch?Isn't this a fairy?
"How is it possible, absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible."

"You. This one. Oh...," Tang Ge was also stunned, not knowing what to do. Wang Xiu said too much, and the sun will come out tomorrow and the water will completely recede. If this is a political gamble, then the bet is too big big.

"I am the Taiqing Realm of the Upper Realm, the leader of the Taoist sect, Daode Tianzun, the Taoist priest of Penglai Yingzhou Island, and the true king of Taichu, who is now possessed by the reincarnated body of my primordial spirit and retreated from the flood, so you can do it yourself." After finishing speaking, Wang Xiu Close your eyes again.

"True Monarch of Absolute Beginning." Tang Ge was almost suffocated and coughed a few times, and the officials supporting Luo Gai almost threw Luo Gai away.

Zhao Huan didn't know what to do. He didn't believe it, but he couldn't refute it. In the end, he didn't know what to do.

Without waiting for everyone to wake up from the shock, Wang Xiu opened his eyes, as if drained of strength, turned around limply, looked innocently at Zhao Huan and the others, and said weakly: "Your Highness, my lords , Just now. Oops..." He clutched his forehead, took a step back as if he was suffering from a headache, and his body was on the verge of falling. If it weren't for the officials on the side who were quick to support him, he would have fallen abruptly on the hard bluestone. What a pity But it's too big, maybe you have to knock a big bag.

"How does Wang Zhige feel?" Tang Ge asked cautiously, his eyes flickering with deep doubts.

Wang Xiu stood up straight, and let the person who was seriously ill say weakly: "Fortunately, it's just that the whole body is weak."

Tang Ge smacked his lips and asked, "Is Zhige's body different? Well, what did Zhige just say about the reincarnated body of the primordial spirit?"

"My lord Tang, the primordial spirit reincarnated himself, the flood is surging, the crown prince has not yet worshiped the heaven and the earth, Wang Zhige hastened to go down and stop messing around, he couldn't get rid of the water steward's blame, what should we do?" However, if the water cannot be cured, it will be Wang Xiu's recklessness, and of course the crown prince will inevitably be guilty.

Tang Ge glanced at Sheng Zhang very dissatisfied, but he was not good at talking, if something happened to him, he would be in big trouble, he pondered a little: "Zhige, what happened just now?"

Wang Xiu's eyes were confused, she shook her head and said, "What did your lord say, what's going on?"

"God descends." Tang Ge said four words, staring into Wang Xiu's eyes, thinking it was ridiculous, but he didn't find that Wang Xiu had any guilty conscience.

"What god descends, I don't understand your lord's meaning." Wang Xiu's face was extremely surprised, and her eyes were particularly innocent and pure.

Tang Ge was in a trance for a while, wondering if he was thinking wrong, Wang Xiu was originally the reincarnation of the True King of Absolute Beginning, maybe what he said just now was true.

"Wang Zhige, don't play tricks. If the flood doesn't recede at night, I'll see how you explain to His Majesty." Sheng Zhang was furious, and he still didn't forget the embarrassment just now.

Wang Xiu shrugged and said innocently: "What is this called! Master Tang said that it happened in the blink of an eye."

Zhao Huan curled his lips and said suddenly: "Okay, now that the True Lord of Taichu has come, I will leave it to fate if I can retreat, and I will go to see the official's house first." Without hesitation, he turned around and walked down city ​​walls.

Tang Ge looked at Zhao Huan's back helplessly, and could only wave his hands and said, "Put down the boat, mark the city wall, go down every half hour, and record whether the water level has dropped."

Wang Xiu's eyelids twitched, and she suddenly smiled and said: "At the critical moment, Mr. Tang is capable and mature." The implication is that Sheng Zhang is stupid, since this guy has offended him, there is no need to keep his words.

Sheng Zhang's face was ashen, wishing to beat Wang Xiu violently, but he also understood Tang Ge's meaning that the coming of the gods was of great importance, and he must not be arrogant, otherwise bad luck would fall on him, so he had to hold back his anger and swear to himself The flood will not recede, he must punish Wang Xiu severely, and never let this guy have a chance to stand up.

Tang Ge told Wang Xiu exactly what happened just now, and carefully observed Wang Xiu's reaction, but what he got was Wang Xiu's incomparable astonishment. He was shaken by his own doubts again, and his eyes became extremely solemn.

"Hey, I really didn't expect it. I still took it as Mr. Yuan Miao's joke. Anyway, everything has come to this, let's wait." Wang Xiu shook her head innocently, and kept sighing as she walked towards the tower. Said: "True Monarch in the Beginning, it is really rare."

The officials and officials on the side couldn't help but twitch their mouths, it's not good to be a god!This guy is really hypocritical.
