Chapter 799: Invite the Queen to the Throne
The couple was analyzing the role of Sun Jiang in pretending to be a soldier to offer auspiciousness.
Yin Le, who was waiting at the door of the house, saw Wang Jin's carriage and hurriedly sent the twins who were following him into the house to report.
Sanlang and Siniang rushed into the door and shouted: "Mom, daddy, Mr. Wang is back from the banquet!"
Before Qin Yao and his wife could go out, Yin Le had already snatched them back from the carriage.
Wang Jin looked like a drunkard, and if it weren't for his bright eyes, he would have been thought to be drunk.
Seeing Qin Yao and his wife, Wang Jin stepped back cautiously.
Awang suddenly appeared and closed the door.
Wang Jin lamented, shook his head to dissipate the smell of alcohol, and asked helplessly:
"What do you want to do?"
Qin Yao smiled: "Don't be afraid, we are just curious about how the pumpkin tastes."
"Yes, yes." Liu Ji also smiled particularly gently, "That's auspicious, and the taste is definitely not comparable to ordinary things, right?"
Wang Jin: "Don't laugh, I'm so scared."
"If you want to know what pumpkin tastes like, I'll tell you."
"But..." Wang Jinchou said beforehand, "I tell you, you are not allowed to tell others, otherwise the superiors will find out, and I will lose my head!"
The couple responded in unison: "Okay, we promise not to tell."
Erlang, Sanlang, Four Niang, and three children also raised their hands and made oaths, "Who said who is a puppy!"
Awang and Yin Le also nodded solemnly.
Seeing this, Wang Jin breathed a sigh of relief, beckoned everyone to come closer, and said with a strange expression on his face:
"Actually, I think that auspicious food tastes similar to pancakes."
The three children suddenly sighed in disappointment.
I didn’t expect Xiangrui to taste like pancakes, so that’s not surprising~
Liu Ji waved his hand in disgust, signaling the three children to go back to the house to do their homework.
After the children left, he asked Wang Jin again: "What do other people think of this auspicious golden melon?"
Wang Jin recalled for a moment and said: "Most of the officials said it was delicious and praised it as the best in the world."
"There are still a small number of people who eat without making a sound."
After all he could say, Wang Jin asked helplessly: "Can I leave now?"
The couple fell into deep thought and raised their hands in tacit agreement to signal Yin Le to see off the guest.
After sending Wang Jin away, the couple looked at each other for a moment, then went back to the house with their own evil intentions.
Qin Yao was lying on the bed, thinking that it was inevitable that Xu Wenqing would become the leader, so she should do something.
Liu Ji was rummaging around in the corners of the study.
Gather all the hidden personal belongings and pocket money on the bed and start counting.
It wasn't until late at night that he fell asleep excitedly holding a hundred and fifty taels of silver in his arms.
In the dream, it seemed that I dreamed of something happy and made me laugh out loud.
"Hahaha, here's my chance to get rich."
The rooster just crows next door.
Liu Ji woke up from bed as soon as he was erect.
After being in a daze for a moment, he looked down at the warm money bag in his arms, and his eyes instantly became firm.
Liu Ji went out in a hurry before breakfast.
Awang felt a little strange, but didn't think much about it.
After all, it's not strange that his eldest father is strange.
Liu Ji walked all the way from his home to the main street, diagonally opposite to the Imperial College.
But he didn't go in.
After stopping for a while in front of Taixue's gate, I felt that the students there were useless.
Turning around, he plunged into the West Alley.
Not long after, Liu Ji was seen eating meat buns while greeting a large group of people heading towards Ziwei Palace.
Most of these people wore shabby clothes and had thin and sallow faces.
They are all beggars entrenched in the West Alley.
But Liu Ji only needed to give each of them one hundred coins, plus two meat buns, to make them temporarily obey his instructions.
Including Liu Ji, there are about 200 people in total.
They lined up on the bank of the moat not far from Ziwei Palace.
Following Liu Ji's order, everyone knelt down.
Crying and begging, please ask the Queen of Heaven to ascend the throne!
Liu Ji knelt at the front of the crowd, shouted the loudest slogans, and cried the most sincerely.
He had an idea in his mind, the Queen of Heaven was the most worthy person in the world to be the emperor!
Liu Ji was determined and cried for that cry which was touching.
"Empress of Heaven, you are the living Bodhisattva who has descended to earth, the legendary and destined emperor!"
Liu Ji shouted, and a bunch of beggars behind him shouted:
"Please ask the Queen of Heaven to ascend the throne and return the wishes of the people!"
At first, people didn't know what they were doing.
Have fun watching the fun.
After hearing clearly what was said in these people's mouths, they instantly transformed into birds and beasts and scattered in all directions.
Some people were shocked at how courageous the leader was.
How dare you shout such treacherous words in front of the palace gate.
Sure enough, a group of imperial guards arrived not long after.
The leader is still the National Master.
Seeing an angry look on his face, Sikong led the Imperial Guards to rush towards Liu Ji with great strides and shouted angrily:
"Nonsense! What a nonsense you guys are!"
"Come here, drive all these people away!"
When the beggars saw the imperial guards, they all panicked.
Without even waiting for the imperial guards to come forward, Hulala ran away.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Ji was surrounded by a group of imperial guards.
Someone wanted to fight him, but he still ignored him and cried loudly:
"Liu Ji from Liujia Village, Jinshi Town, Kaiyang County, Zijing Prefecture, begs the Queen to comply with public opinion and ascend the throne!"
Sikong Jian ordered angrily: "Get down!"
The Imperial Guards took the order, carried Liu Ji and threw him into the alley.
But no one covered his screaming mouth.
Those words of begging the Queen to ascend the throne were known to everyone.
However, in Kuanzhengfang at this time, because Qin Yao stayed at home in winter and the family had all the vegetables, no one went out, so the whole story was not known for the time being.
Yin Le, who came back from closing the shop, said: "Today, someone from Ziwei Palace actually gathered the people at the gate of the palace to beg the Queen to ascend the throne. My God! These people are so bold, are they not afraid of death?"
Qin Yao asked curiously: "Are they all dead?"
Si Niang answered quickly, "No, the national teacher just had them all driven away."
"Why didn't they kill them?" Sanlang asked puzzledly.
Yin Le also felt unexpected, "Is it because the law does not punish the masses, and it is difficult to kill too many people?"
Awang ate his rice in big mouthfuls and reminded unhappily: "If you don't eat, the vegetables will get cold."
Liu Ji was the first to respond, and hurriedly asked everyone to eat quickly and stop gossiping.
"Your Excellency must have your reasons for doing this." Liu Ji said seriously.
He thought to himself that today's momentum must not be strong enough!
We will fight again tomorrow.
Erlang, who was sitting next to his father, was keenly aware that something was wrong and turned his head to look at Liu Ji several times.
His father was frightened by the sight and bluffed and scolded: "What are you yelling about? Eat quickly!"
Qin Yao was dissatisfied: "Liu Ji, what are you yelling about?"
Liu Ji: "Hehehe"
He lowered his head and glared at Erlang who was making a face. The father and son started eating with big mouthfuls of bowls.
The next day, Liu Ji made up his mind that those who achieve great things must be willing to spend money!
He spent all the 130 taels of silver in his pocket and invited the civilians of Yongtongfang to follow him to the palace gate.
Thousands of people knelt in front of the palace gate, which could occupy a large area.
Liu Ji was the leader, and thousands of civilians in Yongtongfang followed.
The voices shouting for the Queen of Heaven to ascend the throne resounded throughout the entire Kyoto city and even reached the palace.
Si Kong Jian appeared in a rage and grabbed Liu Ji, who was shouting and crying like crazy.
"Liu Ji, are you crazy?!" Si Kong Jian asked in disbelief.
Liu Ji said with a tragic look: "No, I'm not crazy."
He just wanted to make progress too much!
He was lifted up high by the soldiers and carried out. Even though his voice was already hoarse, he was still shouting:
"Please let the Queen ascend the throne--"
The Queen ascends the throne!
The Queen ascends the throne!
Ascend the throne!
The throne!!!
