Yan family? Many people no longer remember the famous family twenty-three years ago, and only some old people still remember things about the Yan family.
It’s just that the members of Yan’s family died twenty-three years ago. Is it believable that this man who suddenly appeared claimed to be the son of Yan Zhaonan
Most importantly, the other party is suing the Supreme Emperor. I have never heard of people daring to sue the emperor. Isn't this courting death? Among all the onlookers present, the little emperor may be the most confused.
In the palace, Yan is a taboo word, especially the name Yan Zhaonan, every time Emperor Chengqing heard it, he would be furious. In the few years when the Yan family had an accident, many court ladies and eunuchs died in the palace because of this incident. As time passed, no one dared to mention the name and the family behind him.
Therefore, when Zongzheng Qingqi was young, there was almost no shadow of the Yan family, including when he was studying in the Palace School, the teachers only described the Yan family as ambitious, collaborating and treasonous rebels, and then brushed it off.
Now, after more than 20 years, a person suddenly came out and said that he was the eldest son of Yan Zhaonan who should have died in the Miemen massacre, and he also sounded the grievance drum to sue the current Supreme Emperor, which is really absurd.
However, the teachings of the tutors are still effective. At least at this time, Zongzheng Qingqi did not immediately rush forward and question the other party.
"Do you know that there is a price to be paid for knocking on the drum of grievances and redressing grievances in front of the saint." The chief guard of the gate said to the man kneeling outside the palace gate and claiming to be Yan Chu.
When such a thing happened, they also had a headache. The other party sued the Supreme Emperor in public, and so many people listened to it. If there is any bad influence, will the higher-ups vent their anger on them, the lower-level people
But complaining about grievances is a rule left by the ancestors, so many people see it, they can't ignore the etiquette and take this man who sued the imperial court away.
After thinking about it, it is better to scare the other party with "mountain of knives" and "sea of fire". As long as the other party is afraid and regrets, then they will think of some excuses and spread some rumors to deal with this matter.
"I know."
But the man's attitude obviously didn't match their thoughts.
"Now that the drum of grievances has been sounded, I am naturally ready to roll the "mountain of knives" and walk through the "sea of fire"."
The man's expression was very resolute, and he looked in the direction of the imperial city, "I endured humiliation for so many years, just to collect evidence that the former emperor and the current Supreme Emperor destroyed my whole family of Yan's family and polluted my Yan family's loyalty and brilliance. It was already stolen by me in the past year, if you can give justice to my Yan family, it will be my life, so what?"
The man has obviously put his own life and death aside, what can't be lost for a person who lives on his last breath and believes in revenge.
"General Zhen Guo, I still remember him. Back then, when he repelled the Yi people in the northwest and rode a tall horse to Beijing to receive the reward, how majestic he was at that time."
"I also remember that Old General Yan left early, and the court's military generals were not available. If it hadn't been for the birth of General Yan at that time, I don't know how long the chaos in the northwest would have been. That time he beat the Yi people to death. His vitality was severely injured, and he did not recover until now more than 20 years later, it is said that the area in the northwest is in chaos again, if General Yan is still there, maybe there will be nothing wrong with the Yi people."
"What do you say so much? What's the use of his high skills? The dragon robes and letterheads of collaborating with the enemy and treason that were copied from the house at the beginning are still fake. He is ambitious himself, and the big trouble is to live."
"Hey, if General Yan really has wolf ambitions, he can still wait for some messy bandits to kill his wife and children, and he can go to the palace to have a banquet obediently and alone. Isn't it because he is stupid, stupid, and loyal to the emperor? If he is really rebellious , should have taken precautions when the Supreme Emperor summoned his family to Beijing, and he died so suddenly, I think, everything is worth four words, it’s just a great achievement.”
Zongzheng Qingqi clenched her fists tightly when she heard the whispers of the surrounding people.
Perhaps because of his distrust of Emperor Cheng Qing, the father, he felt that the words of the onlooker next to him, who covered his mouth and disappeared into the crowd after saying the words of the Lord of Gong Gao Zhen, might be true. .
Killing a donkey is indeed something his father can do. Similarly, narrow-mindedness is also his characteristic.
Although the son did not speak of his father's faults, Emperor Chengqing's behavior was unqualified no matter from the perspective of him as an emperor or as an ordinary father.
Especially today, after hearing the people's verbal evaluation of him and Xiao Chu, Zongzheng Qingqi was even more disappointed with this emperor father.
Now that such an incident suddenly happened again, it only made his disappointment even bigger.
The guards guarding the gate acted quickly. While everyone was discussing, they took out the nail boards that had been kept in the warehouse for decades and hadn't been used, and placed them in front of the city gate.
Although it has been dusty for a long time, after simple wiping, those iron nails are still sharp and frightening in the sun, with a faint cold light, and they are densely packed. What kind of pain would it be if the iron nails were pierced into the flesh when it was on the board.
The man took off his thick blouse and only wore a thin undershirt. Without hesitation, he lay down directly, only to hear a puff, blood seeped from his back, and slowly flowed down along the groove of the nail plate.
Those who are less courageous have already covered their eyes and ears, not daring to look or listen.
"Woo—" The man clenched his teeth, and just snorted softly. Putting his hands on the rake, he turned around, revealing the blood holes in his back, and nailed his front half of his body to the iron nails.
In an instant, the whole body was soaked in blood, and even the brave city guards couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
The man didn't stop. For this kind of punishment, stopping is the most terrible thing. Only by not stopping, enduring the pain and rolling over the three-foot-long nail board, can there be any hope of success.
And because the iron nails are densely covered, these injuries look scary. In fact, when you lie on them, the punctures are not so deep, so you don’t have to worry about abdominal injuries, but the pain is really unbearable. Many people just because of Unable to bear the pain, I kept the same posture for a long time, and because of the pain, I couldn't help but increase the force on several points of the body, which caused the needles to pierce deeper and deeper.
The onlookers listened to the puff puff puff puff sound and the man's muffled groan, and didn't dare to open their eyes until the difficult sound was over.
By this time, the man had already turned into a blood man, and no color other than red could be seen on the original white inner garment. It was conceivable how his body was riddled with holes at this time.
Rolling the "Mountain of Knives" and "Sea of Fire", after realizing that the opponent's perseverance is enough to support him to climb the mountain of knives, the guards guarding the gate began to prepare charcoal fire.
They smashed the red-hot charcoal and paved a path.
At this moment, the man's face had turned pale due to excessive bleeding, but he still stubbornly took off his shoes and walked onto the "Volcano" barefoot.
"Zizizi" the sound of charcoal roasting flesh, accompanied by an increasingly strong smell of burnt, the man's lower lip was already bitten and bleeding, but he was still strong and did not cry out in pain.
Such a son is worthy of being the son of Yan Zhaonan, the famous general of the country at the time, and he has also lived up to the prestige of his ancestors.
From suspicion at the beginning to admiration now, the emotions of the onlookers have changed within the few sticks of incense.
"Your Majesty, it's time to return to the palace."
Yan Chu watched the guard step forward to support the man who stepped on the "volcano" and couldn't help but fell down weakly. He stepped forward and whispered in Zongzheng Qingqi's ear.
"Back, back to the palace."
Zongzheng Qingqi obviously hadn't recovered from the shock of the scene just now, and only after hearing Yan Chu's voice did she recover a little bit of clarity.
The other party has passed the test of "Sword Mountain" and "Fire Sea". Soon, all the officials will enter the palace, so he, the emperor, should naturally appear.
The first time someone sued the Supreme Emperor, Zongzheng Qingqi suddenly didn't know what he should do.
If it is really the fault of the Supreme Emperor, is it necessary to admit that the Supreme Emperor was such a shameless and despicable villain in front of all the people of Dashang? When has there ever been an emperor who was thrown to the gallows for trial while still on the throne.
Once Emperor Chengqing was convicted, the Zongzheng imperial family would become a joke, and this shocking event would be recorded in the history books.
But if the Yan family is not given justice, Zongzheng Qingqi feels that her insistence, his desire to be a wise emperor, seems to have become a joke.
How to choose
He couldn't help but look at Xiao Chu who was standing beside him with an indifferent expression. Maybe the other party could give him a correct direction
