A Clash of Gods - Chapter 814
[Chapter 805]
Sima Changshen immediately said: “Father, you are so old and injured like this, how can you… how can you continue to go to the imperial tomb?” The
King of Huainan also had a solemn expression and said, “Envoy Fan, old man. Guo Gong’s waist is damaged, is it really just a problem of muscles and bones?”
“Don’t worry, my lord, the lower officials can use their lives to guarantee, and the old Guo Gong’s injury will be cured as long as he takes some care, and there will be no major problems. Chen ↗ Yuan ↙ Wen × “Learn? Net” Fan Yuan envoy said sternly.
The King of Huainan breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Old Duke, you naturally know that it is very important to offer sacrifices to the emperor’s mausoleum this time. During the four hereditary monarchs that year, the old marquis of Tantai was unable to come due to illness, and you are the only one who is a veteran of the three dynasties. Although there are many officials, it is always wrong without the presence of the old prince, look…!”
“My lord, my father is so injured, do you think you can still go to the imperial tomb?” Sima Changshen’s face sank , sneered: “Do you want to toss your father to death in the imperial tomb?”
“Shut up!” Sima Lan’s face turned cold: “Sima Changshen, how can you be arrogant here?” Looking at the king of Huainan, he said, “What the lord said is very true, The Great Chu is very kind to our Sima Jia, and I must not be absent for such a big event as offering sacrifices to the imperial mausoleum.” Seeing the team stopped, he said, “My lord, it’s not good for the dragon to be delayed here, although I can’t move right now, but the hospital The imperial physicians here are all masters of Xinglin, as long as they give a little diagnosis and treatment, there shouldn’t be any major problems.” He moved his body and let out an “ah” sound, his face full of pain.
The envoy of Fan Yuan hurriedly held down Sima Lan’s arm and said, “The old prince must not move, otherwise it will only aggravate the injury. The next official will send someone to the Tai Hospital to convene the staff and ask them to come with the medicinal materials.” Xiang Sima Chang Shendao: “Master Hou, the holy car can’t be delayed, please bring someone to carry the old man to the side of the road and set up a tent temporarily. The group can go to the emperor’s mausoleum first. We will try our best to diagnose and treat the old man. Catch up with tomorrow’s sacrificial ceremony.”
Sima Changshen’s expression was solemn, and the King of Huainan had already asked, “Envoy Fan, this is located in the suburbs of Beijing and is not safe. Can someone carry the old prince to the imperial mausoleum?”
“Absolutely not.” The envoy Fan said sternly: “My lord, not to mention that this place is still nearly a hundred miles away from the imperial mausoleum. Given the current state of the old prince, even if he carried it out of ten miles, it may cause damage to the waist bones. Greater damage. As long as the current injury is treated in time, it will not cause too much problems, but if the injury is increased, the next official is only worried that even if he does his best to rescue, there will be huge hidden dangers in the future, and even… …and even lead to paralysis.”
At this time, a shrill voice asked: “What happened here?” Everyone looked over, but it was Fan Dehai, the eunuch chief next to the little emperor Longtai.
“Eunuch Fan, my father fell off his horse accidentally, his waist was fractured and he couldn’t move.” Sima Changshen immediately said, “I ask Eunuch Fan to inform the emperor that my father cannot accompany him to the imperial mausoleum.”
“The old man fell from the horse?” Fan Dehai Taken aback, he
hurriedly said: “The miscellaneous family is going to report to the emperor.”
Sima Lan sighed and said, “I didn’t expect the dragon’s car to be delayed because of the negligence of the old man. Chang Shen immediately sent someone to set up a temporary tent by the roadside. , carry me over, don’t block the road.” He said to the Fan Yuan envoy: “Fan Yuan envoy, if you have time, send someone to get the medicine immediately.”
Sima Changshen was a little reluctant, but he knew that he could not delay the current situation. , immediately ordered to temporarily set up a tent on the side of the road, and ordered someone to make a stretcher to carry Sima Lan to the side of the road.
After a while, Fan Dehai had come back and said: “The emperor has a purpose, if the old man is too seriously injured, he will return to Beijing for treatment immediately.”
“Thank you for your concern.” Sima Lan said: “Emperor Fan, there is no serious problem here for the old minister. The envoy of Fan Yuan also said that as long as there is a little treatment, there will be no major problems. The old minister will be treated here for the time being, and then he will be carried to the imperial mausoleum, and he will definitely arrive before the ceremony tomorrow.”
King Huainan He sighed and said: “This is the end of the matter, the old man can only stay here temporarily.” He glanced at Fan Dehai beside him, and asked, “Father Fan, when will the ceremony start tomorrow?
” It has been confirmed over there that tomorrow is the auspicious time, and the sacrificial ceremony will be held from the hour.” Fan Dehai replied respectfully.
Sima Lan immediately said: “The old minister will arrive on time before tomorrow’s hour.”
King Huainan stretched out his hand to hold Sima Lan’s hand, and sighed lightly, “Old Prince, although you and I are a little unhappy, compared to national affairs, private matters The unhappiness between them is really nothing. You are an important minister of our Chu State, and many important affairs in the court depend on the old prince, and I hope to recover as soon as possible, so don’t let the emperor and this king worry.”
Sima Lan showed a touch of moved. Said: “Your Highness loves you, and the old minister is very grateful.” The King of
Huainan said: “Go on and move on.”
Someone made a stretcher and carefully lifted Sima Lan onto the stretcher. The King of Huainan said with concern: “Old Duke, this king asks the emperor to leave some Yulin Camp guards here to protect the old Duke comprehensively.”
Sima Lan lay on the stretcher and shook his head lightly: “The Yulin Camp is the It is to protect the emperor, so how can the old minister ruin things. Wangye, the old minister will send the soldiers of the Black Scale Battalion to temporarily guard, so there is no need for the prince to worry too much.”
“In that case, the old prince should take care.” Huainan Wang Weiwei Nodding: “This king and the emperor will go to the imperial mausoleum first, and wait for the old prince to come.”
Although Sima Lan unexpectedly fell from the horse and delayed for some time, the team soon resumed the road.
Qi Ning rode out for a while, looked back and saw that someone had already carried Sima Lan into the tent.
He didn’t say a word just now, but he kept observing the horse Sima Lan was riding. The horse was indeed a good horse, and there was nothing wrong with it. Qi Ning was very curious, secretly. Just now, why was the horse suddenly frightened, and it would slam Sima Lan off the horse’s back?
Could it be that someone did something on that horse?
He felt strange in his heart, and in the sound of ritual music, he had already traveled for a while.
It is said that it is not far from a hundred miles away, but it is not close when it is said to be close. Many court officials still walk on foot. These officials usually have to wear fine clothes and jade food, but now they have to walk hundreds of miles on foot. I can’t stand it anymore, and some people are out of breath after walking more than 20 miles.
Coupled with the scorching sun, and the officials all went out in court clothes, they were sweating profusely.
Longtai is considerate to the courtiers. After a long journey, he will rest for a while, and at noon, he will arrive at the dining place that has been prepared in advance, and prepare some flat cakes that are convenient for quick eating. Many officials could not eat, but drank a lot of water.
It was only in the afternoon that we arrived at the imperial mausoleum.
After Chi Fengdian arrived, he immediately dispatched troops and horses to guard the various roads leading to the imperial mausoleum, and then dispatched troops to guard around the imperial mausoleum, and the guards stationed in the mausoleum were also dispatched and managed by Chi Fengdian.
However, the sacrificial ceremony is still tomorrow, so the emperor and his ministers do not have to enter the imperial mausoleum today, while the monks of the Daguang Temple and the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain have to enter the imperial mausoleum first, chanting the scriptures, and the Ministry of Rites has already done it in advance. Preparations. After arriving, officials from the Ministry of Rites led Buddhist and Taoist monks into the imperial mausoleum, while the emperor and civil and military officials stayed in the eastern suburbs of the imperial mausoleum.
Before Long Jia arrived, tents had already been set up in the eastern suburbs of the imperial mausoleum. The emperor’s golden tent was in the middle. According to the etiquette system, the emperor had to bathe and cleanse himself tonight, transcribe Buddhist scriptures, and did not see any courtiers.
The tents of the ministers were surrounded by the golden tent, and the stars were holding the moon. According to the level of the official position, the higher the official position, the closer it was to the emperor’s golden tent.
The ministers rushed their way for the day, and many of them were exhausted. After sending the emperor to the tent, the ministers also returned to their tents to rest. By the evening, the eastern suburbs of the imperial mausoleum were silent. Unable to bear it, they rested in the tent. Some officials also copied Buddhist scriptures in order to express their devotion to the imperial mausoleum.
After stationing in the camp, Qi Ning walked around to make sure that the golden tent was guarded tightly. He also learned that no one was allowed to approach the emperor’s golden tent until tomorrow’s sacrificial ceremony. Today’s road is just a piece of cake for him, and naturally he will not feel tired at all.
The camp is guarded by elite Yulin soldiers, and the elite Yulin soldiers are all carefully selected brave warriors. It is an exaggeration to compare one to ten, but it is really easy for one elite Yulin soldier to deal with three or five people, and Qi Ning has long discovered the palace swordsman. Xiang Tianbei disguised herself as an eunuch in the palace, and has always been guarding the emperor’s side. Qi Ning knew that the group of eunuchs guarding Longtai was not necessarily the only master Xiang Tianbei, among them, there were many hidden palaces. Experts, not to mention that no one can get close to the golden tent at all, even if they are close to the golden tent, they have been waiting for the eunuchs in the palace who have been waiting around the tent, it is an insurmountable protection.
Qi Ning knew that with the strength of the Shadow Mouse group, even if they were good at assassinating, they would never have the chance to sneak up on the emperor.
Chi Fengdian was in charge of the guard, so after he was stationed in the camp, he didn’t have a moment to rest. He always patrolled the camp with his guards. He dispatched nearly a hundred people to patrol the camp. Camp found.
At this time, Qi Ning is no longer worried about Longtai’s safety.
com, however, was thinking of the Prince of Dongqi, who was in the capital.
It’s not that he has a good opinion of the Prince of Dongqi, but the Prince of Dongqi is now in the state of Chu, which is no trivial matter. If there is any accident in the state of Chu, then all the efforts made by the state of Chu before will be in vain, and the two countries of Qi and Chu will definitely turn against each other. This was a huge disaster for the soldiers of the state of Chu.
It is hoped that the Prince of Dongqi will have an accident in Chu State, which is naturally the result that many people want to see.
Qi Ning didn’t care whether the Crown Prince of Dong Qi was alive or dead. He just hoped that His Highness the Crown Prince would never have any accident in Chu State. Chu country, no matter what happens to this person, Qi Ning will not care.
