#545: Kneeling

The night of the demon change was heavy in all parts of Yanjing!

The two throats of Beichen Pass and Nanming Pass were breached by the rebels on the night of the demon change!

One hundred thousand rebels are marching towards Yanjing, and they may attack the capital at any time!

Yanjing City’s air defense is weak and vulnerable!

One news after another, one worse and one scarier. Just when the people of Yanjing were in a state of panic, wealthy households rushed to pack up their belongings and fled, local ruffians took the opportunity to make trouble, and the public security deteriorated sharply, a piece of news from the imperial court instantly calmed the entire city.

“The Shuiyun Palace will hold the enthronement ceremony three days later, and will take charge of the radiance on the sky platform and bless the people.”

“As the moon rises, as the sun rises!”

“The safety of the new emperor is the wish of all living beings. The people wish to lose their longevity, and the new emperor will live in peace and longevity!

“May Tianyang Majesty listen to the prayers of the grass people, and the heavens follow the people’s wishes! May the ancestors and ancestors listen to the voices of future generations, and all wishes come true!”

“The people wish to change their longevity, and pray for the glory of the country and the eternal as the moon! Pray for the new emperor of benevolence and virtue to rise like the sun!”

When Kui Nianqiang went to the market to buy vegetables, he saw countless small temporary altars along the way. Countless people knelt on the side of the road, facing the imperial court, kowtowing and praying. Until the bleeding does not stop.

One kowtow, one prayer. The voices of the people in every hutong and every street were connected together. Their voices echoed in the sky above Yanjing, and their kowtows were transmitted along the earth to the depths of the imperial court.

They are so fanatical and devout. The old people can’t kneel on the ground for a long time, and the children don’t dare to be naughty and learn to kneel together with their grandparents. Young women who are working also pray in their spare time, even because of They could only find time to pray, so their prayers were louder and their kowtows were more crisp.

Walking on the street in the evening, Kui Nianruo looked at the roadside with countless people kneeling and bowing. For some unknown reason, she suddenly felt a shudder, as if standing on the side of the road were some evil spirits, and this prosperous Yanjing was more like a dead tomb.

She carried a vegetable basket and hurried back to the small house in Zhuque Hutong. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Li Ying, Qin Yueshi, and Qian Yuya playing a battle of unparalleled killings. She hurriedly went to the kitchen to hand over the vegetable basket to Zheng Zheng. Cooking Lin Xue, then came out and grabbed Li Ying’s arm: “Li Ying, you really should go out and see, everyone outside is praying and celebrating for Shuiyun!”

“Wouldn’t that be nice?”

“But, but, I don’t know what to say!” Kui Nian’s weak tone was very tangled: “They clearly knew that after Shuiyun ascended the throne, they would use the holy sword Huiyao to repel the enemy, and use the holy sword Huiyao to repel the enemy. It’s bound to waste their lifespan! They clearly knew that Shuiyun would die soon after ascending the throne, but they… In short, I felt very sad and uncomfortable, but I don’t know who to be angry with if I want to be angry! Li Ying, I ——

“Wait a minute, this is my turn.”

Kui Nian let out a weak voice, thinking that Li Ying would chat with her after this round.

However, Li Ying put the cards in her hand on the table, then turned around and beat Kui Nianchou, took out a few hair ropes to tie up Kui Nianchou’s hands and feet, and took out Kui Nianchou’s arms. He took out a handkerchief and gagged her, and threw her on the bench.

Then Li Ying returned to the card table and played a trick card: “Preemptive strike.”

“Woo! Woohoo!” The bound Kui Nianqiang kept rolling and struggling on the bench. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to resist, but Li Ying, who had activated her physique of immortal blood, could use Distorted Reality of mana. Although a martial artist who has mastered the penetration level can be immune to the sneak attack of mana, in the battle of a low-level martial artist, the mana is equivalent to a cheating tool at the Fenglingyueying level.

But everyone ignored her and continued to play cards. On the way, Lin Xue came out to see this scene, and asked about the situation. He felt both angry and funny, “Don’t bully Nianwei. However, if you are weak, calm down first.”

After all, Lin Xue actually went back to cook, and did not untie Kui Nianwei’s shackles. Kui Nian let out a weak whimper, and found that no one paid any attention to her, and she almost burst into tears in grievance.

“Xiaoyu, can you save me? If you don’t save me, you won’t be able to stop the full-fledged sister Shi alone!”

“No help.” Qian Yuya was very indifferent.

Li Ying had no choice but to put down her hand, and in the past she was weak for Kui Nian. Kui Nianqiang didn’t make a fuss, and said aggrievedly: “Why are you tying me?”

“Because you quarreled with me, but also because I can beat you now.” Li Ying said, “If I don’t bully you a few more times when I can beat you, I won’t have a chance in the future.”

“Also, you obviously feel uncomfortable when you see what’s going on outside, but when you come back, you go out of your way to tell us about what’s going on outside. I’m speaking more politely, you want to be with us through thick and thin; I’m speaking more vulgarly , you ate **** outside and came back to kiss us.”

Li Ying grabbed Kui Nianwei’s shoulder and shook it: “You are unhappy and make us unhappy. You said you should spank, tie up, and wear a gag?”

“…Shit.” Kui Nian nodded with a weak mouth.

Qian Yuya and Qin Yueshi, who were playing cards, looked at each other, and through eye contact, they reached an unanimous consensus: in the future, their group of girlfriends must strictly limit the friendship of Kui Nianwei, otherwise one will not pay attention, Kui Nian Weak is likely to be abducted by some wild man, and I am afraid that it will not be the mother of a few children when we meet again in a few years.

Li Ying said a few crooked things to get her in, but she couldn’t say she was stupid, she could only say that most of the nutrients she ate were probably absorbed by her **** and hair.

“I also understand your feelings,” Li Ying patted Kui Nianwei’s head and sighed, “Do you think the people outside are too utilitarian and have no sympathy at all, as if you wish Shui Yun was in charge today Huiyao sacrificed his life to drive away the enemy, and regarded Shuiyun as a sacrifice of the holy sword Huiyao?”

“That’s right! It’s like you said!” Kui Nian nodded weakly: “That’s why I feel so uncomfortable in my heart. I feel that Quan Yanjing may be the only one who cares about Shui Yun’s life and death.”

“You don’t have to think too bad about the people outside,” Qian Yuya said calmly: “They are not us, Shuiyun is just a symbol of the royal family to them, a stranger, someone who fell from the sky to help them eliminate The savior of disaster relief. They don’t know that Shui Yun is just a teenage girl, a student with mediocre grades, a girl who is afraid of loneliness and loves to dream.”

“They don’t know anything, so naturally they can’t care about Shuiyun like we do. They have no obligation to care, they only have an obligation to be grateful. They do a good job of being grateful.”

“You think they are urging Shuiyun to die, but why don’t they show that they are not ungrateful people in this way? Everyone has a utilitarian heart, but so is gratitude. Things in the world are not wrong. Black is white.”

“The vast majority of people kneel down, and what makes them kneel is indeed naked desire, but what makes them bow down is not necessarily sincere gratitude.”

“I actually understand…” Kui Nian weakly bowed his head, “but I just feel like this… it’s cruel.”

“It is indeed too cruel to have a peer of ours listen to the prayers of this sentient being and be forced to bear this heavy responsibility.” Li Ying sighed: “Could it be that the imperial court is afraid that Ming Shuiyun is unwilling to activate it. The holy sword is shining, so you deliberately promote the flames among the people?”

“No.” Qin Yueshi shook his head: “Although it is true that someone helped, the court did not intervene… However, the court acquiesced.”

“Who is fueling this?”

“Nobles, chambers of commerce, noble families.” Qin Yueshi said lightly: “Although our Qin family did not contribute, the steam merchants gave money. The main reason why those people are so neat and diligent when they kneel down is actually because of the high class. People will give money.”

Li Ying was suddenly enlightened, but Kui Nianwei was still a little puzzled: “Why would a superior person give money?”

“In the event of a military disaster, civilians will at most lose their lives and burn down their houses. What is the loss? But the aristocratic chambers of commerce and aristocratic families are the fat sheep in the eyes of the army in the outer district. Hundreds of years of accumulation are destroyed in one fell swoop, how can they not be in a hurry?” Qin Yueshi said: “They can’t afford the loss of Shuiyun’s cowardice, they must make Shuiyun courageous, and they must make Shuiyun willing!”

“Everyone’s life, property, future, and destiny in Yanjing are tied to one person.” Lin Xue came out of the kitchen holding a plate of vegetables and placed it on the dining table: “Although she has thousands of subjects, she Still have to fight alone.”

Xue Lin’s craftsmanship is very good. Tonight’s food is still delicious, but everyone can’t eat it. The person who started the topic was still Kui Nianqiang, a guy who couldn’t read the air: “Is there any news from Teacher Qin?”

“I went to the medical court and asked Teacher Yan and Teacher Ning. Teacher Ning said she didn’t know either, but Teacher Qin was definitely safe.” Lin Xue said, “The principal must know where Teacher Qin is… but now the Imperial Academy is not allowed to enter or leave. Also, he didn’t tell us yesterday, and he can’t tell us now.”

Yesterday at noon, a few of them were driven home by Cha Huan in a daze. Cha Huan just told them that ‘the school has something to ask for help from Teacher Qin’. Huan’s aesthetics, and no student would doubt Cha Huan’s character.

It was not until the news of “Shuiyun Huanghui Yaoxing” came out from the imperial court in the afternoon that they knew that something was wrong.

“Why do you want to lock up Teacher Qin…”

“Because he is just like you, he knows the living ‘Ming Shui Yun’, not the ‘Shui Yun Palace’ where all the people bow down.” Li Ying said: “But unlike us, we can only There’s sulking here, and he has the power to change the outcome.”

“He can’t change.” Qin Yueshi said: “We have no chance to escape from Yanjing. If we want to survive, we have to rely on Shuiyun to control Huiyao to suppress the rebels, and we can only accept Shuiyun’s protection. .”

“At this point, we are no different from those who bow down outside. Even if we are a little more sympathetic than them, what can we protect with our hearts alone?”

“Xiaoyu was right just now, don’t look down on those people. Because in terms of results, we are all the same as them… Brother he is the same.”

If Kui Nian weak is just feeding shit, then Qin Yueshi’s remarks are literally blowing up the **** pit, and others think this meal is even harder to swallow.

“It is estimated that after Shuiyun ascends the throne, we will be able to see Teacher Qin.”

After a long time, Lin Xue said in a relaxed tone: “At that time, Teacher Qin should not be a teacher, but will enter the imperial court to assist Shuiyun.”

Li Ying echoed: “According to his status, at least he has to start as a pure blue operator, right?”

Qin Yueshi smiled disdainfully: “The chief graduate of the academy can start as a pure blue operator, you are too despised to have the scabbard of Cong Longzhigong, not to mention that Shuiyun has the ability to suppress rebellion, and the imperial court has no power at all. The law disobeys her authority. In my opinion, the eldest brother starts as a purple-blue operator at a minimum, and directly puts on a purple robe and a golden and jade mace, it is not impossible to become a cabinet minister.”

“The truth of the cabinet… Then, Sister Shi, can’t your qin family be able to ascend to heaven?”

“What you said is really ugly… But there is an elder brother in the court, a second elder brother in the Statistics Department, and if I am in charge of the business of the chamber of commerce, it is really just around the corner to become a wealthy family in Yanjing. If the elder brother gets another title, the qin master You can even become a newly promoted noble family and live with the country!”

“In this case, if we embark on an official career, Shuiyun should also support us…”

“What Shuiyun, you show me some respect, that is the respected Her Majesty the Queen!”

“Li Ying, don’t be in a hurry to flatter yourself. The court operatives are assessed. Although they are almost fake for the students of the Imperial Academy, your academic performance…”

“If you start out as a pure blue operator after passing the assessment, from today onwards, as long as I don’t die, I will learn from it!”

“The determination is very firm! Then are you still fighting Wushuang Sha?”

“I won’t play as long as I win one game a day!”

“You mean you don’t want to study anymore?”

Lin Xue, Qin Yueshi, and Li Ying had a lively discussion about the future, but Kui Nianwei was eating with red eyes and stuffy head, while Qian Yuya’s face was calm and didn’t get involved in their conversation at all.

Slowly, the voices at the dinner table became lower and lower.

Finally, Qin Yueshi put down her job again and said coldly, “Even if it was me, I wouldn’t make money from my friends!”

Li Ying is quite helpless: “But what can we do other than imagine the future and try to make our mood a little better? We have no ability to affect the situation at all.”

“Teacher Qin may have.” Lin Xue said, “If he could see Shuiyun, maybe the ending would be different…”

“He didn’t!” Qin Yueshi couldn’t help but retorted: “What can he do? If you don’t take control of the holy sword Huiyao and Yanjing is broken, then everyone will die together, Ming Shuiyun and other royal families will definitely It’s the first batch to die! Now it only needs Ming Shuiyun to sacrifice, it’s already the best ending.”

“Big brother, he may have become a good person, but he is a calm person after all… Even if he doesn’t want to, he will force himself to accept the reality! He can’t persuade Shuiyun to go to the dead end and cause us all to be buried together! “

“No.”

Qian Yuya put down her job and said calmly, “If Brother Hongle had nothing to do, he wouldn’t be locked up. And he is locked up now, it can only show that he is trying to resist Shuiyun’s decision, so the court only Had to lock him up.”

“Brother Hong Le is by no means a man of his own accord. Since he chooses to resist, it means that he has a better way to achieve an ending where everyone does not need to cry… But for some unknown reason, he failed to let the imperial court Let Shuiyun accept his advice.”

When the voice fell, Qian Yuya suddenly stood up: “After waiting for a day, Brother Hongle still didn’t show up, so it’s time for us to act.”

“What do you want to do?” Xue Lin asked.

“Let him meet Shuiyun.”

Li Ying: “But what should we do? We don’t even know where Teacher Qin is!”

“Do your best and do your best.” Qian Yuya pointed to her temple: “Using all our resources in Yanjing, we will pave a road to Shuiyun for Brother Hongle.”

“It doesn’t make any sense!” Qin Yueshi stood up and took Qian Yuya’s hand: “My eldest brother, he can’t do anything! It’s already time for the holy sword to break the game~IndoMTL.com~ He can Is there any way? Can he annihilate an army of ten thousand people? Or can he call the wind and call the rain and kill invisible?”

“Are you underestimating the holy sword Huiyao, or are you overestimating my big brother?”

Qian Yuya’s expression was as calm as a lake, without sadness or joy, she looked into Qin Leyin’s eyes and said, “You just said something, Innisfree, I agree very much.”

“What?”

“There is no difference between us and those kneeling outside.” Qian Yuya said: “However, there is a difference between kneeling and kneeling. Although we can’t stand up, we can try our best not to lie down. down.”

Qin Yueshi was slightly startled and released her hand.

“I’m going to find Teacher Lou tomorrow.” Kui Nianqiang suddenly said, “I know where Teacher Lou lives!”

“I went to contact the members of the Peerless Killing Research Association. Many of them are children of nobles. Maybe they will know something.” Li Ying said.

“I will continue to go to the medical case to find Teacher Yan and Teacher Ning.” Lin Xue said, “They also know Shui Yun, and they are definitely willing to help us.”

“The Statistics Department…” Qin Yueshi sighed and sat down weakly: “I’ll go home tonight to find the second brother, and let the second brother find Xianchan Chenchen… The Statistics Department must know something.”

“Very good.”

Qian Yuya nodded, put on her coat and prepared to go out.

Lin Xue stunned and asked, “Are you going out now? Who are you going to find?”

Qian Yuya stepped into the cold night and left a name for the house:

“White night.”
