Chapter 320 How could the situation collapse like this?
Zuo Zhou was half-kneeling in the main hall, feeling extremely complicated.
Just a quarter of an hour ago, when he came in with Xiao Consort, he was quite happy when he learned that Emperor Qin was going to summon him in the main hall in front of all the civil and military officials. This was a clear plan to help him restore his identity and grant him a marriage.
ah!
However, just a few minutes ago, Yang Wenguang handed over a document. Zuo Zhou didn't know what it was at that time, but Emperor Qin's expression changed after reading it.
By the way, the Qin Emperor who met all the officials turned out to be the fake!
Well, this is a bit beyond Zuo Zhou's expectation. Wasn't this guy afraid to meet officials at first? Why did he show up now? Is he conscious that his acting skills have improved? Or did he say something happened?
Zuo Zhou didn't say anything about this, since people were calm and not afraid of being exposed anyway, so what did he have to worry about.
But then he became a little confused. He only heard Emperor Qin ask: "Yang Wenguang, I want to call General Li as the consort for Princess Qingping. Do you... have any objections?"
????????????????????????????????????
Even if Zuo Zhou doesn't look back, he can still feel the question marks on the civil and military heads of the court at this moment. What is going on? Who does Princess Qingping call as her consort? When does the Yang family need the consent?
Emperor Qin sighed and asked his chamberlain to open the document and show it to the civil and military officials of the court. It was a marriage document, with Qingping's name and date of birth clearly written in the woman's column. And in the man's column... Yang
flat!?
This Yang Ping...
"Qingping, is this marriage certificate authentic?"
Emperor Qin asked softly. Qingping was stunned for a moment, with a strange and anxious expression. She took a step forward and replied: "Really! But my brother made the engagement in order to seize Jingzhou City secretly. Later, Yang Ping also died.
The hand of the royal sister."
Many civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty knew what happened to Princess Qingping back then. After all, it involved the military power of Jiangnan Road. Now even if Qingping admits it, it doesn't matter. What if it is true? Yang Ping is dead.
"General Yang is being unreasonable. What does this engagement have to do with your Yang family? Moreover, Yang Ping has died at the hands of Qingping. If you say it now, it will ruin Princess Qingping's reputation in vain." Xiao Prince Consort was the first to come out.
Speaking for Zuo Zhou, it can be seen that if he had to maintain his personality, he would have to stand up from the wheelchair.
Zuo Zhou was a little moved, but he didn't expect Yang Wenguang to hum: "Xiao Prince Consort doesn't know something. This Yang Cang and Yang Ping father and son are branches of my Yang family!"
Xiao Prince Consort: "..."
Do you think the people named Yang are all members of your family?
"You all don't know that after my ancestors helped the Song Dynasty fight against the Liao Dynasty, many branches of the Yang family did not return to the Song Dynasty. And Yang Cang is one of the many branches of my Yang family. The former leader of the Pei Kingdom married Yang Cang.
At that time, Yang Cang once sent the marriage certificate back to my family, so Princess Qingping is the one who entered my Yang family's ancestral hall."
Qingping was confused. How could she unknowingly enter the Yang Family Ancestral Hall? The Yang Family Pei Family?
Qingping looked at Zuo Zhou in a daze, feeling a little at a loss for a moment. She suddenly thought of one thing. Regardless of whether Yang Wenguang caused trouble or not, from the perspective of the engagement, she seemed to be indeed a widow, or someone who killed her husband.
Black Widow.
"If you don't believe it, here is the Yang family genealogy. The transcription of every name in it has been witnessed by many highly respected academics." Yang Wenguang was obviously very well prepared.
The chamberlain handed the Yang family genealogy to Emperor Qin. After briefly reading it, Emperor Qin said: "My dear friends, what do you think of this matter?"
As soon as Emperor Qin finished speaking, Zuo Zhou had already taken a step forward and knelt on the ground, doing the standard general etiquette, "Your Majesty, I have known Princess Qingping since I was young, and they have made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty through life and death together. Please give me your Majesty’s grace!”
At this point, the recollection ended, but Zuo Zhou, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, or in other words, he seemed to see some possibility in the future.
From the first sentence the fake Emperor Qin said, he felt something was wrong. Why did you still call him Li Yuanfang? Did you think about helping him prove his name? This fake Emperor Qin seemed to be a little... hostile to him? Not really, It feels like preparedness and crisis plan.
But no matter what the reason is, if Emperor Qin dares to act recklessly today, then... the history of Great Qin next door will repeat itself. Emperor Qin's death is coming soon, and I will kill him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No one in the civil and military circles of the court saw that Zuo Zhou's eyes were red at this time. Di Renjie stood up after Xiao Consort, "Pei and Yan have been destroyed, and Yang Ping and Yang Cang are dead. This engagement should not count."
Yang Wenguang seemed to have expected that Di Renjie would stand up and speak for Li Yuanfang, but he did not refute, just stood and watched quietly with a smile, as if everything was expected.
"Master Di, what you said is wrong. The etiquette cannot be discarded. Since Princess Qingping has entered the Yang ancestral hall, she is a member of the Yang family. As her husband's family, she cannot remarry if she does not agree."
A middle-aged man who looked extremely upright stood up. His voice was unfamiliar, but it gave off a sense of uprightness.
Zuo Zhou turned around slightly and took a look, but found that the middle-aged man was also looking at him, with a trace of pride in his eyes, as if he was waiting for Zuo Zhou to look back at him.
This appearance... He has seen the portrait of Sima Guang.
Zuo Zhou lowered his head again and had no intention of scolding him, because he knew that what happened today still depended on Emperor Qin's thoughts.
However, after Sima Guang, a large number of ministers stood up and kept upholding the rules and abiding by orthodoxy.
Zuo Zhou raised his head and glanced at Yang Wenguang again, and found that this guy was also looking at him, but he was not proud, but a little bored. He seemed unwilling to take care of this matter, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Zuo Zhou lowered his head again. The argument was far away from him now, and no sound could be heard. He knew that Di Renjie, Xiao Prince Consort and Bao Zheng were helping him argue. But it was useless to argue in this matter, because they seemed to have no occupation. reason.
Some people say that if a sword doesn't hit you, you won't know the pain. Today Zuo Zhou knows it hurts. Haha, he has never understood the pain of feudal society so deeply.
The forefathers who created a new China, you are awesome!
In the main hall, the debate has not stopped. Bao Zheng, Di Renjie and Xiao Prince Consort are very powerful. Even if they are unreasonable, they can still argue for some points.
But there are too many courtiers who are on the side of the Yang family. No, it cannot be said that they are on the side of the Yang family. It should be said that too many are on the side of the 'rules'.
It has to be said that this matter comes at a special time. Emperor Qin wants to pass on the throne to Hu Hai. According to etiquette, it should be passed on to the elder rather than the younger. If Emperor Qin compromises according to etiquette this time, then on the matter of the future crown prince, The ministers will have the upper hand.
Therefore, what the officials are now targeting is not Li Yuanfang and Princess Qingping, but the prosperous age of the Qin Dynasty they imagined!
As for Li Yuanfang and Princess Qingping, they are just expendable minor characters.
Qingping cried silently. She did not look at Emperor Qin or pray for anything. She just stared at Zuo Zhou's back. He was the only one in the entire hall who was still kneeling, waiting for Emperor Qin to say a word.
"Okay, stop arguing!"
Emperor Qin spoke, and all the ministers were silent. He looked at Zuo Zhou, who was still kneeling in the middle, and sighed: "This matter is related to the royal family's decency. I need to think about it carefully. Dear ladies, please step aside."
"Your Yang family...is missing a widow?"
Emperor Qin was about to stand up and leave when he heard a clear taunt echoing throughout the hall. Everyone looked at the figure who stood up slowly in disbelief.
Are you crazy? Isn’t this an insult to the Yang family?
Yang Wenguang was angry and stared at Zuo Zhou, but he met a pair of cold eyes. Poof, he spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed completely. If there were no generals behind him to support him, he would have fallen down at this moment.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Did you do something in the main hall? Don’t you want to live anymore?
"Your Majesty! The murder committed by this madman in the palace is a crime of great disrespect. The most deserving thing is... poof!"
Zuo Zhou glared at him, and Sima Guang's eyes rolled back twice as much as Yang Wenguang's vomiting of blood.
So, sometimes it’s a simple truth. If you can’t break through a layer of window paper, you just don’t understand. Look, this mental power attack is very useful. People say that the eyes are the windows to the soul, because the eyes are the easiest to use mental power.
body organs. He only needs to reveal a trace of the world-destroying aura to have the effect of glaring at someone with morning sickness.
Hey, why didn’t you think of that before? Well, maybe I wasn’t so angry before!
The only pity is that his eyes are not strong enough and he can only bear a little.
"Yuanfang, what are you doing? Hurry up..." Xiao Prince Consort shouted anxiously.
"The exiles said that Emperor Qin is about to die, you all remember it!"
"..."
Zuo Zhou's words made everyone shiver. What is the difference between your words... and saying that you want to kill the king?
No difference!
There was no respect in Zuo Zhou's eyes when he looked at Emperor Qin. Well, it was fake anyway, and he didn't need any respect. That look startled Emperor Qin, and there were already more than a dozen eunuchs around him at the same time, each of them ranked as a master.
, the movements are quick, as if they are practicing the Sunflower Book.
At the same time, all the generals in the palace clenched their fists and stared at Zuo Zhou with full vigilance. There were also some experts with extremely strong blood among them.
A strong person on the Earth Ranking appears within a hundred miles of you. The opportunity has arrived, so be sure to seize it!
The sudden reminder from the system made Zuo Zhou's heart feel as if a bucket of cold blood had been poured over him... Shit, the Earth Ranking couldn't stop him from killing people. Let him push Da Qin into the abyss of chaos with his own hands today!
The innate true energy on the body is flowing rapidly, there is no wind behind him, and the arm of the Dharma will appear in the next second.
"General, forget it."
"..."
Qingping grabbed his arm, with tears of satisfaction on her face. A man wanted to become an enemy of Da Qin for her, what else could she want in this life?
Zuo Zhou paused, "You don't have to worry about me, no one in this palace can stop me."
Qingping shook her head, "It makes no sense. Whether I am a wife or not, or whether I marry or not, I am still your woman."
The men and women looked at each other, and Zuo Zhou suddenly felt that there should be a camera circling around them at this moment. The more beautiful the better. It was boring to be so cold. No wonder so many exiles went to the Song Dynasty. It was that chaotic country.
It's more free, and you don't have to suffer from such birdiness.
"Let's go." Zuo Zhou took Qingping's hand and walked out of the hall.
The ministers are confused, do you want to come as soon as you want and leave as soon as you want?
Sima Guang pushed the person who was supporting him away and wiped a mouthful of blood from the corner of his mouth, "The murderer wanted to assassinate Your Majesty, but the guards on the left and right didn't take him away..."
Humming!
A mountain-like momentum came down, suppressing everyone in the hall. Sima Guang's words were suppressed, and he couldn't even move.
Zuo Zhou didn't look back. This momentum was not from him, but from the powerful man hiding in the dark.
"Everyone... please step back."
The fake Emperor Qin waved his hand and asked all the courtiers to leave. The pressure disappeared and no one dared to say another word. When he was the only one left in the palace and even the maids were gone, he took a long breath and said, "Uncle Bai, Why did you let him go?"
A man in a black satin robe emerged from behind one of the palace pillars. He had a tall and straight posture, a heroic appearance, and a trace of seriousness between his brows. Just one look in his eyes made the fake Emperor Qin a little scared.
"If I don't take action, you will be dead!"
The fake Emperor Qin sneered, "Aren't you still here?"
The man in black robe turned his head angrily, "Back then, I could defeat Wuming within a hundred moves, but just now Zuo Zhou could kill me with just one move!"
"Hiss! So powerful!" The fake Emperor Qin shuddered and felt a little like peeing.
But the man in black robe said again: "Of course, you won't be able to see it, because you will definitely die before me!"
