Chapter 29 king

Wugu City held its eager breath and waited for the arrival of the king. The nine dragon flags were flying and fluttering above the city gate, and there was a sea of ​​people below the city gate. The class has already pulled out all their lion men. Under the steps of the rice shop, a rice warehouse funded by the government stands majestically, exuding the fragrance of rice. On the other side of the deserted stone platform, two executioners in red robes stood beside the iron cage. Their expressions were indifferent and quiet, but the knives in their hands shone with a sharp cold light, and they looked a little impatient.

The officials of the Wugu City stood between the gates of the city. They all wore yellow or crimson official robes. From a distance, they stood neatly and harmoniously, but from a close look, they stood in conflict. Some officials thought that their standing There is a discrepancy with the position, unwilling to stand behind others, the body can not help but move to a more prominent position, so that someone will be violated naturally, and some officials who are violated lack self-cultivation, and they are not good at swearing, so they shoot Stretching out, defending their position, coming and going, there was a phenomenon of shoving and shoving among the members of the team. Fortunately, Zhan Shishi stopped it in time, and the due silence was barely maintained in the city gate.

The waiting time was so long, suspiciously long, that the officials began to whisper, and they all stared at Governor Zhan with suspicion, saying that if the king does not come, the imperial army should arrive, and if the imperial army does not come, so should the king's dragoons. When the time comes, if they don't enter the city, they will always send a palace official, why no one comes? Zhan Shishi's face was anxious, and he was tormented by a rotten sore on the corner of his mouth due to his anxiety, and he groaned a few times from time to time.The palace official has come and took away a cart of stinky fish!Inspector Zhan was asked anxiously, and finally revealed the first news from the king. I thought it was a palace official delivering the decree, but it turned out to be a stinky fish!I asked the palace official why he wanted stinky fish, and he was about to enter Wugu City. How much fresh fish did the king want? Why did he take the stinky fish away?He just won't tell me!

The officials all stared wide-eyed, not understanding what the stinky fish meant. They all said that the king is a king after all, and eating is different from ordinary people. Many secrets of the Longevity Palace sound very strange. Maybe eating stinky fish is the secret to prolong life. . The palace official took away a cart of stinky fish and never returned, leaving a heavy suspense for the officials.Zhan Shishi sent people to go up the tower to keep an eye on the movement of the king's men and horses. Under his repeated hoarse voice, everyone remembered the rich content of the welcome ceremony. The gongs and drums are about to be beaten, the lions are about to dance, the gates of the rice barn are about to be opened and the gates of the rice barn are about to be released. It should be beheaded, according to common sense, the king will respond on the dragon seat, and keep people under the sword-this is the only detail Zhan Shishi is worried about, because no one can pretend to be the voice of the king, and he doesn't know how the king will feel at that time, whether to beheaded or not Cutting, this ceremony to show the king's favor is not easy to rehearse, you can only wait for the final result.All the arrangements are made according to the regulations of the Longevity Palace and combined with the regional culture of the Wugu City. They should be detailed and full of characteristics. It’s okay if the weather does not help. The grassy road leads to the gate of the yamen, and enters the palace from the underground passage. The main activities are all indoors, which can effectively prevent accidents. In addition to catering to the king's interest in writing golden plaques for famous mountains, rivers, cities and counties, there is also a great surprise It will satisfy the king's hobby of inventing new punishments. Other places use five horses to divide corpses, but Wugu City uses one more horse than other places!The assassin's young weapons will be pushed in front of the king. The six fat and strong stallions have been trained for half a month. They will allow the king to enjoy the magnificent scene of six horses dismembering corpses created by Wugu City. The sixth horse Undoubtedly, it is the essence. The task it undertakes is special and arduous. Except for Governor Zhan and the horse trainer, no one knows about it, and no one can inquire about it. It is a secret.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is needed, but the news from the city tower is still depressing. The king's mighty army is stranded on the official road like a giant dragon, and the sentinel on the tower said that the official road is rising. The king's men are actually preparing their own meals in the field! Governor Zhan gradually broke out in a cold sweat, and preparing his own meals was a nightmare omen. He began to worry about the king's opinion of Wugu City, did he listen to some slander, and did he have any bad impressions of Wugu City?A bad impression of Wugucheng is also a bad impression of him.Had he been falsely accused by some villain of offending the king?Who will that villain be?He scanned his colleagues in the city gate with probing eyes, and they were also looking at him. Everyone's eyes were different, some were stupid, some were cunning, some were hesitant to speak, some were clever, and aimed at the king's picnic. The news spread widely and said, the king is great, he can't enter the city of five grains, and he can't eat a grain of the people!Governor Zhan looked around, but he couldn't see who had such a great ability to sue to the Longevity Palace. If he could sue to the Longevity Palace, he wouldn't be inferior in Wugu City!Thinking of this, Inspector Zhan felt relieved. The governor of Wugu City must not be known by the king, and he would not have any opinion of him.

All are waiting for the king.The guards outside the city gate are already heavily guarded, and even the fallen leaves have been picked up one by one. Anyone who is idle is not allowed to stay in the high place. , The people piled up inside the city gate like ants, forming a mountain of people. Several mountains of people made hollow noises outside the city gate.The people near the rice warehouse are the densest and the most difficult to manage.Some people fainted inexplicably, some people defecated indiscriminately, which aroused accusations from the surrounding people. Due to the competition for the position, many accidents happened near the rice warehouse. Human life!Some officials criticized those refugees sharply. Where are these poor ghosts welcoming the king?Obviously they are welcoming food!

The danger signal at the rice warehouse aroused the vigilance of Governor Zhan. Governor Zhan knew that his people loved the king more than food. The people waited patiently for the king, but they were impulsive when they waited for the food. He was a little worried about releasing the rice. The consequences of helping the people, but that stack of rice must be released. I don’t know what chaos will be caused by canceling the enmi. He didn’t dare to take risks. Seeing that the soldiers guarding the rice warehouse were powerless to fight, Governor Zhan had to fight against the city. The idea of ​​the large army in the gate, he selected a few officials with low official positions but strong body, let them temporarily join the ranks of soldiers guarding the rice warehouse, those officials reluctantly left the city gate, and went, But to be humiliated, Zhan Shishi sent a confidant to follow them and eavesdrop on what they said. The confidant came back and said, they dare not scold you, they scolded Chai He and Jin Jin, they kept muttering, idiot gold idiot Chai!Zhan Shishi said, you are an idiot, if they say half load of gold and half load of firewood, then they are scolding me!His confidants are confused, but Governor Zhan is not. He knows that those people are so angry that they can't choose what to say. They are exposing his old background of sending Chai Jiajin to the capital to buy an official. Dao, what is there to say? In the past, it was half a load of firewood and half a load of gold, but now it is half a load of firewood and three loads of gold!

Finally, there was the sound of horseshoes knocking on the lonely official road, and the whole Wugu City listened attentively. When the three dragoons came galloping, someone noticed that they were holding a rough white banner instead of a Nine Dragons flag in their hands. , Then a shocking sound exploded in the air, kneel down, all kneel down, the king is dead, the king is dead!
