Chapter 1,110 Taisun Nai Zhengshuo
"The banquet is on the second floor, please come with me."
Zhao Xu walked up the stairs. Someone had been waiting here for a long time, and empty chairs had been reserved.
Looking around, well, Cui Zhaoquan, Xie Zhi, and He Yuduan are all here, and half of the cabinet can be invited here.
"You've finally arrived."
Several cabinet ministers only breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
There is a candlelight in front of the hall, which illuminates it clearly, and there are dishes on the table.
"Peach blossom shrimps, phoenix shark's fin and mandarin duck chicken, five delicacies stew, golden jade carp, exquisite peony bream, honey sauce fire recipe, first-grade tofu... Ha, it's quite rich."
Zhao Xu is not afraid of the poison and eats it with chopsticks after sitting down.
"This tofu is from Fenghuang Tower. The craftsmanship is quite authentic, but it is definitely not made by the chef, but by the second chef."
"The heat of the Mandarin Duck Chicken is okay, but it lacks a bit of flavor. It became hot again after it cooled down, at least half an hour later."
The prime minister took a sip, drank a glass, and then put down the glass.
"What exactly happened tonight? Now that the banquet has been held and the wine has been drunk, can we tell you?" Zhao Xu and the minister's eyes were fixed. They now knew that they were not from Zhao Xu's faction, and there were many armored soldiers, but they were under house arrest. .
"Masters, in fact, this matter has nothing to do with you, so it's better not to be confused."
Xie Hongdao thought about it and answered like this.
Seeing that he was not lying, Zhao Xu looked around, and the ministers also hesitated to speak.
Thinking about it, I understand that it was the grandson’s intention.
"It's hard to be confused? It's easy to say."
"Then do you know what crime it is to imprison the cabinet without permission?"
"The word "imprisonment" should never be taken seriously."
Xie Hongdao bowed repeatedly to such accusations.
"It's just chaos in the city. I'm worried about your safety. How dare you say prisoner?"
"Why is there chaos under the emperor's feet? Are you going to say that the grandson is planning to rebel tonight?" Xie Zhi asked with a sneer.
Although I don’t know the situation or that Taisun attacked the palace gate, I can guess it right.
Xie Hongdao suddenly changed his color and felt panicked, but he still shook his head: "The grandson is Zhengshuo, how can he seek rebellion? He is really caring and caring."
"Tonight, the King of Qi has commandeered the demon army in an attempt to kill the king and usurp the throne!"
"...His Majesty is seriously ill and has urgently ordered King Taisun Qin to rescue him. Before leaving, he specially led some villains to dissuade you all."
"From a villain's point of view, His Highness treats each other sincerely and shows no signs of neglect."
As soon as he said this, although he had expected it, but hearing the fact, his mind still exploded and turned into a blank. Zhao Xu unconsciously dropped the chopsticks in his hand and fell on the table.
The King of Qi, his grandson, the demon army, regicide, usurpation of the throne... This incident is really shocking.
Nothing happened since ancient times, but the Great Zheng Dynasty came out!
"I think that I, the Great Zheng, conquered the south and the north, pacified the Central Plains, drove away foreign humiliation, and rescued all the people from the fire and water. I don't know how much effort I spent. I have just won a few decades of peace. Seeing that the prosperous age is approaching and the people's livelihood is safe, but one after another changes happen...
…It’s still this kind of change.”
"The prince was deposed and killed, the gods showed their signs, and the King of Qi led the demon army to force usurp the throne... Heaven, why are you so harsh?!"
"Could it be that you are not even willing to give him a hundred years of prosperity?"
The melancholy and sadness in Zhao Xu's heart are really difficult to express to outsiders.
Xie Hongdao is still persuading.
"Your Majesty has been ill for a long time, and all of you are aware of this."
"In order to prevent unexpected events after death, I have urgently ordered the grandson to enter the palace. The intention is that he will inherit the throne."
"The reason why we are sent here is also for the sake of the Ji family and the country. We don't want evildoers to harm you all and ruin the spirit of the country."
Zhao Xu looked at him deeply.
No matter how much this person talks, he can't hide it from the public. However, where to go is the key. For a while, everyone in the building was silent.
"King Qi, I know a lot about the demon army." Seeing the silence of the ministers, Xie Hongdao suddenly laughed until he burst into tears, and his voice immediately became lower.
"The great demon lurked in the capital, took my life, and ordered me to be a servant for more than ten years... I'm afraid you may not know how many demon clans are lurking in this capital, as you are at the ninth level, right?"
Several cabinet ministers looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Do you know that?" Cui Zhaoquan couldn't help but ask.
"Hey, of course I know."
"To tell you the truth, the person who took away my identity is a very important person."
"He can command the demons!"
"Rat, civet cat, wild boar, birds... lurking under the feet of the emperor in the capital, setting up a net, I don't know how many things have been done!"
A deep chill, causing uneasiness, spreads in the hearts of all the prime ministers.
It should be noted that the demon clan has existed since ancient times, but it is extremely difficult to become a demon. However, once you become a demon, you can naturally command people from the same clan, and only the same clan.
As what is said is true, being able to command monsters of a different race is probably beyond the limit of a great monster, and cannot be described by the monster commander of the Demon Department... This is a disaster rather than a blessing for the human race.
Those who were even more worried asked questions in public.
"It's such a big deal, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Xie Hongdao suddenly stopped laughing, his eyes dark.
"I want to play it too, but I'm so confused that I can't even remember it."
"When I returned to the house, I met Duojue. My father was in a coma, and my mother couldn't forget about the Demon King... The whole house regarded me as an enemy and missed that impostor."
"Although this is the home where I was born, there is no room large enough to accommodate me. How can I deserve it?"
"You ask me why I don't play, but who should I play for?"
"I have become a joke all over the city. People can hear about me everywhere... How have the people of this city, the civil and military officials, ever spoken ill of me? Am I doing it for them?"
At this point, he felt a hint of resentment and stopped talking.
"I became a demon servant. Fortunately, my great grandson protected me and escaped."
"My great-grandson saved me and showed me great kindness, so I will only pay tribute to my great-grandson."
"That's all!"
"..."
Everyone was silent. He was indeed innocent, and it was normal to have resentment.
"Hello...you are very well!"
He Yuduan's face was as dark as water, and he waved his hand: "We don't need to ask anymore, he won't say anything, now he is just delaying time!"
"What Xiang He said is absolutely true." Xie Hongdao bowed.
"Then what if you fail?"
"It's nothing more than death!" Xie Hongdao said lightly.
Zhao Xu glanced at him with a light eyebrow.
"Xie Jiazi, you have an unfortunate fate. Everyone knows that you want to regain your ancestor's title as a filial piety. I am blameless."
Xie Hongdao did not dare to neglect and half-bowed to listen.
"When you were in trouble, as a young servant, you were innocent, but you were also contaminated by the evil spirit of Taishi, and now you are hard to get close to."
"Young Master of the Xie family, you don't have to worry about other things, but there are some things that you must ask clearly." Zhao Xu looked into his eyes and asked word by word: "You said that the demon clan was involved in the rebellion of King Qi, is that true?
Is it all true?"
Xie Hongdao was overwhelmed by the prime minister's momentum for a moment, and then nodded heavily.
"What is the power of the great demon?"
"I'm not sure. I've never seen him attack with all his strength. It's just that he lives in seclusion and has an identity as a Taoist... I'm not bragging. He has set up a magic circle and can cast magic in the capital. In a few breaths, I'm afraid he can kill everyone.
Hundreds of people."
