King Wu took a step back and bumped into the courtiers behind him.
The Chen Liehu in front of him was a real old man, with a wrinkled face and gray hair and a stooped figure. He was wearing armor and holding a knife but he was not as powerful as before. When he said these words, he was neither fierce nor evil, nor loud nor arrogant, but
It inexplicably scares those who hear it.
King Wu pointed at Chen Liehu and said tremblingly: "You, what are you going to do, are you going to kill--"
Before he finished speaking, Chen Liehu glanced at him, turned around, walked away, and limped away——
Behind him stood the Chen family members who were also stunned. Chen Danyan came to her senses first and knelt down, kowtowing to the King of Wu: "My dearest King, I bid farewell."
Master Chen Er, Master Chen San and others all knelt down in a hurry, and the housekeeper and the guards also knelt down.
"Official—Farewell, Your Majesty—"
They knelt down and kowtowed. When Chen Liehu limped over, a group of people got up and followed.
This sudden change caused a silence outside the palace. Everyone looked in disbelief and there was no reaction for a moment.
Chen Liehu, this old thief is so cruel! Wen Zhong gritted his teeth and pushed King Wu: "Cry."
King Wu trembled, his heart bursting with fear, and he cried out to Chen Liehu who was limping away: "Master - how could you - how could you be alone!"
Wen Zhong stepped forward to support the King of Wu and cursed angrily: "Chen Liehu, it was you who welcomed His Majesty. The King is willing to share His Majesty's worries and become the King of Zhou, but you turned around and abandoned the King. You are really ungrateful and shameless."
Disciple!"
Zhang Jianjun beat his chest and stamped his feet and shouted: "Chen Liehu, how can you be such a person? It is in vain that the king's sincerity towards you is wasted."
The other ministers either cried or cursed, "Chen Liehu, you are ungrateful!" "Chen Liehu, betray the king!" "Chen Liehu, are you worthy of your ancestors?" "You are an unfaithful and unfilial person.
!" The noise was like thunder, hitting Chen Liehu.
Chen Liehu didn't look back or stop, he limped forward dragging the knife, and the Chen family members followed closely behind him.
The onlookers watched them approaching and slowly moved out of the way, looking frightened and uneasy.
"Chen, Mr. Chen." An old commoner, leaning on a cane, called in a trembling voice, "You, you really don't want the king anymore?"
Chen Liehu looked at him, without any hesitation or explanation, and nodded: "Yes, I don't want the king anymore."
The old common man seemed to have lost his last hope. He put his crutch on the ground and said, "Master, how can you not want the king?"
"He is no longer my king." Chen Liehu said, "Brother, there is no longer a King of Wu."
After he finished speaking, he continued to move forward. The old man stood behind him, leaning on his crutches and shouting in tears: "What are you talking about? The king is here. Whether it is the King of Zhou or the King of Wu, he is still the king - Taifu,
You can't do this."
The people around him were all ordinary people. They couldn't make any big reasons, so they could only keep shouting, "Master, you can't do this."
Chen Liehu seemed to be unable to hear the cries of the King of Wu, the scoldings of his ministers, and the pleadings of the people. He just limped forward. Chen Danyan did not help her father, nor did she let Xiaodie help herself.
She raised her head and straightened her body and followed slowly. The noise behind her was like thunder, and the sights gathered around her were like dark clouds. Master Chen San walked in the center and was frightened. As the third master of the Chen family, he had never received such attention in his life. It was really good.
scary——
He couldn't help but want to lower his head, as if he could escape the pressure in this way. As soon as he lowered his head, he was stabbed hard by Mrs. Chen San. He was smart and straightened up.
After all, someone was angered, and there were yells and curses among the pleadings.
"Chen Liehu, you disloyal and unfilial person!"
This was a man who was eating on the roadside. He stood on a bench, raised his hand angrily, and threw the half-eaten steamed cake over. Because of the close distance, it hit Chen Liehu on the shoulder.
Chen Liehu paused, and the surroundings became silent for a moment. The man seemed not to have expected that he would be hit, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but the next moment he heard the cry of King Wu over there: "Master, don't throw it away."
"I am so lonely -" The king is so pitiful! The anger in his heart surged again.
"You're the one who's going to smash it!" he shouted, then he simply leaned over and picked up the bowl on the table and smashed it over.
The bowl fell on Chen Liehu's shoulder and made a crisp sound when it collided with the armor.
The family guard following Chen Liehu let out a low cry, and the housekeeper rushed over. Chen Liehu stopped him, ignored the man, and continued to move forward.
Chen Liehu's reaction not only made the onlookers relieved, but also made them even more angry and excited.
"You're the one who got hit!"
More shouts sounded, and messy things rained down.
Chen Liehu was repeatedly hit on the head and body, and the butler wanted to protect him with his hands, but Chen Liehu pushed him away and walked fearlessly amidst the curses and hits. The butler's eyes were red and no longer pressed, and he followed closely.
Behind Chen Liehu, vegetables and eggs from all around fell on him.
The same goes for the rest of the Chen family. The group walked around shouting and throwing things.
King Wu, who was standing far away, finally couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene. Wen Zhong reminded him quickly and he stopped.
"This old thief, Gu just watched his reputation be ruined!" King Wu said proudly, and then made a sad look, and shouted in a long voice, "Master - Gu is heartbroken - how can you leave Gu -
"
Zhang Jianjun was also very happy and shouted, "Master, please come back quickly——"
Behind them, on the high palace wall, the emperor and the iron-faced general were also watching this scene.
"I really didn't expect it," the emperor said, looking a little sad, "I would see Chen Liehu like this."
He immediately curled up the corners of his mouth again, revealing a slight smile, but his eyes were calm.
"The Chen Liehu in my impression is still the general who stood next to the old King of Wu, holding a knife, forcing me to walk to the old King of Wu step by step, and inviting the old King of Wu to ride with me."
Emperor Gaozu gave the Taifu to these princes and kings so that they could educate them. As a result, Chen Liehu got together with the ambitious old King Wu and turned into an evil king and fierce minister who was domineering towards the court.
Now that the evil king is gone, the evil ministers are very unpleasant to the new king.
Chen Liehu's fate, although he did not die, was definitely ruined and dead. The emperor silently shouted in his heart, "Father," forced your princes, kings and ministers to death. Now only King Qi is left. His ministers will definitely
I will avenge you and prevent Daxia from falling apart again.
The iron-masked general did not speak, and there was no emotion or anger on the face covered by the iron mask. He could only look past the noise and look toward the distant streets with his deep eyes.
Is that child's suffering over? No, it's just beginning.
On the street, Chen Liehu and his family slowly walked away. The crowd of onlookers was still angry and excited, but many people had complex and confused expressions.
Most of them were people who had previously gathered in front of Chen's house.
Unexpectedly, Chen Liehu really betrayed the king. Then, his daughter was really scolding him? Then what's the use of them scolding him again?
What to do next?
The old man suddenly cheered and stamped his feet: "That will be easy."
Why is it so easy? Everyone looked at him with puzzled expressions.
"Didn't Chen Liehu say that the King of Wu has become the King of Zhou and is no longer the King of Wu? He is no longer the subject of the King of Wu." The old man stroked his palm, "Then so are we, no longer the subject of the King of Wu.
, then of course there is no need to follow King Wu to the Kingdom of Zhou!"
This is natural, everyone suddenly understood, but they still looked a little uneasy. After all, whether the King of Wu or the King of Zhou, they are still the same people, and they will still bear the infamy——
The old man laughed loudly: "What are you afraid of? If you want to scold, you can still scold Taifu Chen. It has nothing to do with us."
Yes, everyone was finally relieved, relieved of their worries, and laughed happily.
Chen Liehu's family finally arrived at the house from the rain of curses and beatings. Everyone described themselves as embarrassed. Chen Liehu's face was bleeding, his armor was covered with stains, and his helmet was unknown.
It was smashed off, and the gray hair was scattered, stained with melon peel and fruit leaves——
Chen Danyan was carefully protected by Mrs. Chen's second wife, Mrs. Chen San, and Xiaodie. Although she was in a sorry state, she was not injured. When she arrived at the door of her house, she hurriedly walked to Chen Liehu's side.
"Father, are you okay?" She started to ask, then stopped, and her hand that had not been extended suddenly raised to grab Chen Liehu, her eyes falling forward.
The other people also looked over at this time, stopped, and looked complicated.
