Chapter 97: Beat the Heavenly Drum, and the Emperor Takes His Turn [Did you underestimate the breadth of mind of this commoner emperor?] 【Xie Linghao looked confused when he heard your words! 】 [You said calmly: "This great ancestor was born in a low family. If the world had not been in chaos and he had not had enough food to eat, he would not have started a rebellion."] [There will only be one more scoundrel Zhou Feng in this world, and there will never be an Emperor Gaozu of Daqing. ] [“He established the Heavenly Drum because he cared about the people and wanted to make sure that grievances could be heard directly by the heavens, so that the people could appeal.”] [“It is for the sake of bringing peace to the people and consolidating the imperial power.”] [At this point, your eyes darkened and you slowly said, "The Wei family shouldn't be like this."] [Loyal people did not die on the battlefield, but were buried at home! ] 【There is no such reason! 】 [After hearing this, Wei Yue's heart trembled, "Father shouldn't do this."]

【Hearing this, Xie Linghao was extremely anxious and said urgently: "Grand Guardian, this move may put Your Majesty in an unkind and unjust position, and damage Your Majesty's reputation. It is of vital importance. You must think twice before acting!"】 [“The matter of Wei Gao and Lu Shuai will be tried by the three courts tomorrow. The truth will be revealed and he will be cleared of all charges.”] [“I am now willing to plead with the emperor on behalf of the Grand Protector, perhaps there will be room for recovery.”] [After hearing this, you smiled and said, "If people could not bring complaints against their grievances, the world would be different."] [Hearing this, Zhang Lin became even more anxious. She fell to her knees and kowtowed heavily: "Master Shao Bao, Zhang Lin begs you, please don't beat the heavenly drum!"] [You must know that once the Heavenly Drum is sounded, everyone in the Imperial City will be in prison, with their lives hanging by a thread.] [“If the emperor breaks the law, he shall be punished just like the common people.”] [“Besides, I’ve been waiting for him for a long time, and it’s too late.”] 【As soon as your last words came out! 】 【Hearing this, Xie Linghao closed his eyes slightly, as if he had foreseen an irreversible situation.】 [As for the last sentence, he seemed to understand it but not quite.] [When Jiao He heard that "the common people are guilty of the same crime", he felt a little resentful, but he hid it deep in his heart. ] [In his heart, the emperor is supreme, and there is no knife or sword, rope or law in the world that can punish the emperor. ] 【Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the Lord! 】 [Your Majesty, are you really afraid to kill Lu Chen? ] [Behind the screen, in silence, the three of them listened carefully. ] [Although Xie Lingxuan and the others did not say anything, their expressions were complicated, and it was obvious that they had different opinions on this matter.] 【Xie Lingxuan, however, stared at you blankly, not knowing that her hands were tightly clenched. 】 [Zou Shuning frowned slightly. She felt that it was not a wise move to consider the pros and cons for you. Given your current situation, the situation in Kyoto is complicated and there are many soldiers and horses.]

[You two brothers, as well as General Lu, are imprisoned in the prison. When you two returned to the capital, you did not visit high officials or go to the palace to meet the emperor. I wonder why?] [If we strike the Heavenly Drum now, we will only offend the royal family completely. If we are not careful, we will be doomed. ] [She sighed inwardly. I thought you, Young Master Lu, had experienced a lot in the world and already knew how to advance and retreat, and knew the taboo of being too successful and threatening the master.] 【Unexpectedly, you are still not immune to this. 】 [Throughout the ages, countless heroes have perished because of the suspicion of emperors, and their fates are heartbreaking. ] [As the saying goes, if you take a step back, you will see a rosy future. However, the world is unpredictable and sometimes it is not easy to give in. ] [When Lu Shaobao first came to Beijing, he might have been able to do so, but Lu Chen now cannot. ] 【After 15 years of practicing Taoism, I have left everything behind.】 [The sun and the moon are like galloping horses, time is like falling flowers and flowing water, and time can change everything, including people's hearts and worldly affairs. ] 【Zou Shuning can't help but sigh for you. 】 【Tao Jiamin has more respect for you, he loves heroes.】 [In ancient times, most knights looked down on kings and nobles. When they felt unfair, they would raise their swords and kill people! ] 【How can we be ordinary people? 】 [Lu Yu resolutely grasped the drumstick and struck the towering celestial drum. The drum was more than ten feet high and it roared under his blow.] [He circulated the spiritual energy in his body and focused it on the drumstick. Each blow contained tremendous power, which was stirred by the sound of the war drum.] [Dong——Dong——] [The drums roar.] [The sound is extremely loud! ] 【It spread throughout Kyoto.】 [The people of Kyoto could not help but stop and look up, wondering where this sudden sound came from.] [Still... it rang! ] 【Zhang Lin fell to the ground, the Imperial City Division is finished! 】 【Xie Linghao sighed, helplessly listening to the drumbeats resounding throughout Kyoto.】 [Jiao Heze has already turned around and left resolutely. He wants to go back to the palace to report and tell his master everything that happened here.] [As for whether Lu Chen lives or dies, it is entirely up to the master Qiankun to decide. ] ………… “That drum sound!” Under the sky of Kyoto, a low drum beat suddenly sounded.

[Dong——Dong] Those old people who have lived in Kyoto for many years stopped and carefully identified the direction. After a while! There was a gleam of surprise in their eyes, as if they had seen something incredible. "what?!" "The heavenly drum, which has not been struck for more than a decade, is striking again today." The old man sighed. Something big is about to happen again! Among the younger generation, although some have heard of the legend, they have never witnessed it with their own eyes, so most of them just feel novelty and think to themselves that this is another exciting thing to watch. Every corner of Kyoto! People's attention was attracted by the sudden drum sound. They all looked in the direction where the drum sound came from, their hearts full of questions and curiosity. "Who on earth is beating the heavenly drum?" In the crowd, some people began to recall recent events, among which this was the most eye-catching. The most recent news is the arrest of Lu Jiaxuan, the commander of the Lu family army, and the accountability of Zhongnan Shaobao to Beijing. Could it be related to the two? Stalls at the morning market in Kyoto. Chen Ji paid the money and followed Zhou Cheng and the old Taoist priest in the back. Zhou Cheng and two others walked out. A beautiful woman stood beside her stall, her eyes filled with reluctance and tenderness, but she inadvertently lingered on Zhou Cheng's back for a few more breaths. She sighed in her heart that such a graceful man must have an extraordinary family background and a temperament as gentle as jade, which is rare in the world. I don’t know, what about in other aspects! She took a deep breath! The beautiful woman was lost in thought when her husband came over and said in a soft and caring tone: "Ma'am, if you are tired, just take a rest." The morning market is gradually emptying out and it’s almost time to close. The lady is probably tired, mostly from hard work. The beautiful woman turned around and touched the man somewhere. The man's pupils were dilated and there was a look of surprise on his face. The beautiful woman whispered in his ear: "Go home early tonight!" After hearing this, the man felt a burning sensation in his abdomen. But I don't know where the Madam's interest came from today. She usually ignores me, but today was unusual. but!

The short man hurried over, hoping to go home earlier. Madam’s kung fu is really amazing! On the street, pedestrians stopped in unison. Hear the drums! For the first time, surprise appeared on the gray-clothed old man's indifferent face. He had practiced for many years, so he could naturally distinguish the spiritual sound transmission method contained in the drum sound. The grand sound was far beyond the ordinary. The person beating the drum is definitely a great master. Kyoto is indeed the most magnificent place in the world, and there are many grandmasters there! After hearing this, Zhou Cheng smiled and whispered, "When the heavenly drum sounds, the emperor loses his virtue. Second brother, second brother, let's see how you respond." "Let's go watch a show!" The people of Kyoto realized the deeper meaning behind the drum sounds, and many who knew the inside story hastened their pace and rushed towards the Imperial City Office, wanting to witness what was about to happen. Zhou Cheng and the other two also followed the crowd. Chen Ji was worried! There are so many people and you will be recognized. But he didn't dare to stop his master. …… at this time. On the way to the gate of the Imperial Guards' residence in the south of the city. Xie Chunan walked slowly on it. He held a high position and enjoyed a generous salary, but he disliked servants and carriages. I also heard the drums! He shook his head and said: "It really is a rotating emperor's seat. Whose seat will it be this year?" (End of this chapter)
