The sky began to darken, and there was a dull roar of thunder.
"This..." Ji Yonghao's face changed slightly, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
The expressions of the civil and military officials below the altar also changed, and some even couldn't help but start talking in low voices.
When welcoming God, a sudden change in the sky is not a good sign.
An Bulang sensed it carefully and found that this was a formation that had been buried for a long time and was now activated.
The formation is arranged in advance according to special techniques, which can guide and gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to produce various powerful phenomena.
The formation in front of me is extremely crude. It should have been set up by the monks in the Naling Realm. Ji Shouqian activated it as the formation eye. It didn’t even use a few spirit stones. But even though it was so crude, the other monks in the palace could not even notice that there was a large formation.
Operation.
"Ah...this is the manifestation of God!"
Ji Shouqian, the representative of the royal palace observing the celestial phenomena, suddenly started to tremble all over, looked up at the sky in awe, and said loudly.
An Bulang nodded slightly, feeling in his heart that his acting skills were really good, his emotions were smooth, and his micro-movements were on point.
A group of officials didn't know why, but Ji Shouqian was an authority on this matter, so they basically believed it.
"This...is this a sign from the gods?"
"Then what kind of sign are these dark clouds and thunder rolling in the sky?"
The scene began to become commotion, and many officials felt uneasy.
At this time, Ji Shouqian suddenly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the sky, and begged loudly: "God, please calm down, God, please calm down... Even if the king has done something wrong, he can still make up for it..."
The faces of all the officials changed.
Even a fool can understand what Ji Shouqian's words mean. Is this the fault of the great king Ji Yonghao?
Ji Yonghao looked at Ji Shouqian's behavior and was trembling with anger. He pointed at the old man kneeling on the ground and shouted angrily: "Ji Shouqian! What are you talking about? It's a waste of my kindness and trust in you for so many years, and you can do such a thing!
!”
"Your Majesty! I am loyal to you, as can be seen from the sun and the moon!" Ji Shouqian pointed to the sky and said angrily, "But God has appeared. If you don't kneel down and admit your mistake, God will punish you!!"
As soon as these words came out, the officials under the altar were in an uproar again.
Call the king to kneel before the gods and admit his mistake?
The matter is serious now. Isn't this just forcing Ji Yonghao to say that he is guilty?
Chen Hao, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, was furious. He stood up, pointed at Ji Shouqian and cursed: "Ji Shouqian, don't talk here and confuse the public. Under the leadership of the king, the Canglan Kingdom has a peaceful country and a peaceful people, and the sea and rivers are clear. What crime is there?"
This celestial phenomenon is definitely a magic spell cast by you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, dark clouds rolled in the sky.
Boom!
A flash of lightning flashed down.
Accompanied by a deafening sound!
Chen Hao, the Minister of Punishment, still had an angry expression on his face, his whole body was blackened, he stood stiffly on the spot, and his body fell straight back.
"Plop."
Chen Hao fell to the ground, his energy completely cut off.
"Shilang Chen!"
"Master Chen!!"
When the other officials saw this scene, their faces turned pale with fright.
At this time, Ji Shouqian kept kowtowing to the sky: "God, please be angry! God, please be angry! Chen Hao offended you, and he is no more wrong than the others. Please spare their lives..."
"My King, why are you still dazed? Hurry up and admit your mistake to the Lord God! Otherwise, once the God's anger subsides, he will use thunder to wash away your sins!!"
An Bulang was stunned.
He didn't expect Ji Shouqian to really dare to kill people. Although the power of this thunder was small, it was enough to kill ordinary people.
Some officials were obviously frightened, some looked terrified, and some even knelt down, fearing that they would become the next Chen Hao.
At this time, several more officials appeared and begged the king to kneel down and kowtow to admit his mistake and beg God for forgiveness.
Jia Yuxuan also stood up and joined the queue of officials who asked Ji Yonghao to kneel down and admit his mistake.
He is on the side of the prince and is not afraid of offending Ji Yonghao.
All this is a result of Prince Ji Wuye's plan. If Ji Yonghao chooses not to kneel down, he will be struck to death with thunder. He is said to be guilty and disrespectful to God. Others dare not say anything more. If they say more, they will continue to be struck with thunder to death.
.
It would be easier if Ji Yonghao knelt down and admitted his mistake. This just proves that Ji Yonghao is incompetent, cruel and immoral. Only Ji Wuye can hold the position of king of a country... Anyway, no matter what he chooses, Ji Yonghao is dead.
!
"Okay... you are very good..." Ji Yonghao pointed at the officials below. He looked much older, his breath was extremely weak, and his breathing became rapid, as if he was about to belch if he was not careful.
Seeing this scene, many officials stood up and joined the prince's camp.
Ji Yonghao trembled all over and glared at each of the officials who stood up, as if he wanted to remember their faces.
But the officials are not cowed at all. In a few days, the Canglan Kingdom will belong to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Does it matter what Ji Yonghao thinks?
The right time, place and people are all in the hands of the prince, how can they lose?
"Your Majesty, if you don't kneel down and admit your mistake, the wrath of the gods will come!" Ji Shouqian pointed at the turbulent black clouds in the sky and urged.
At this time, Ji Wuye also stood up, and everyone's eyes immediately turned to him.
"Father." Ji Wuye saluted Ji Yonghao respectfully, and then said in a deep voice, "You have been seriously ill for no reason recently, perhaps it is also a punishment sent by the gods. Now that the gods have appeared again, as the king of a country, if you cannot sincerely admit your mistakes
, what if the gods are angry with all the people in the Canglan Kingdom?"
"Okay! You traitor, you even said such treacherous words?" Ji Yonghao pointed at Ji Wuye, with grief and anger on his face.
"I think that His Highness the Crown Prince is right. God's power cannot be false, so why should your Majesty do this?"
The Prime Minister of the Left, Jia Gucheng, stood at the front of the hundred officials and suddenly spoke.
The statement of the leader of the hundred officials can be said to have stirred up a thousand waves with one stone. Not only were the officials shocked, but even Ji Yonghao had a look of astonishment on his face.
"Okay... very good!" Ji Yonghao laughed, "Either you believed Ji Shouqian's lies sincerely or pretendingly, I don't blame you."
"But you want me to kneel down and admit my mistakes? It's absolutely impossible! I, Ji Yonghao, am the king and I have a clear conscience. I am worthy of all the previous kings and worthy of the people of Li. How can I be wrong? If God is dissatisfied, I will do it if I have the guts.
Come and kill me!!”
When Ji Yonghao said this, he was full of energy, as if a dragon's roar was really bursting out, which made all the officials tremble in their hearts.
At this time, Ji Yonghao still looks as weak as he did a minute ago.
Ji Shouqian's eyes flashed brightly, and his face was full of anxiety and fear. He kowtowed to the sky again: "God, please be angry. Your Majesty did not intend to put all the people in dire straits. All the sins will be borne by the old minister. God, please
Hit me to death!!"
In his hand, he held an inconspicuous magic weapon.
According to the plot that follows, the great formation will be triggered by him, and the thunder will turn into the punishment of the gods and fall, killing this fatuous and cruel king.
Ji Wuye, Qin Shiyue, and the three elders behind her all had a hint of expectation on their faces.
The real show is about to begin!
Sure enough, a terrifying bolt of lightning tore through the clouds, crashing down toward the ground like the wrath of a god.
The light illuminated Ji Yonghao's calm face and Ji Shouqian's somewhat proud face.
The officials couldn't bear to look any longer, as if they could see the king die tragically on the spot in the next moment.
Boom!!
Thunder fell to the ground.
"Ah...!!" A shrill scream came.
Ji Shouqian, who was kneeling on the ground, was instantly chopped into charcoal!!
The whole place was silent.
Everyone's eyes widened, staring blankly at the scene in front of them.
What kind of situation is this? Ji Shouqian, the number one master in the palace, was hacked to death?!
Ji Shouqian said that all the sins would be borne by him, but the god really killed him? Is he such an obedient god?
