Chapter 179: False Mask

The plan for the year lies in spring, and the plan for the day lies in the morning...

On this late spring morning, the gentle sun hangs in the air early, and the warm sunlight playfully formed mottled spots of light in the sky of the imperial capital, telling the people of the imperial capital that today is another good day.

Indeed, today is a good day, both for ordinary people and Jiuji National Master.

This day will surely be recorded in the history of history, because the Hualong Empire will hold a grand abdication ceremony today, and His Majesty the King will abdicate the throne to the Jiuji National Master, who has made great contributions. On this day, the Hualong Empire will immigrate the world with the reputation of Jiuji National Master. Therefore, today is a good day for ordinary people and Jiuji National Master.

Hualong Empire, since the founding of the Hualong Empire, the Hua family has been in charge of the country for nearly a thousand years. Over the past thousand years, the national strength of the Hualong Empire has been sometimes strong and sometimes weak. However, from the beginning to the end, the kings of the Hualong Empire were all surnamed Hua, and now Hua Tianying wants to abdicate the throne to the national teacher Jiuji. Ordinary people will not speculate too much about this, but it does not mean that no one has any strange ideas.

However, those who had strange ideas and revealed them were sent to another world by Master Jiuji in sinister and vicious means. That world represents death, whether it is hell or the underworld.

When people who have strange thoughts but have not been revealed and people who have no thoughts stand together, they naturally make people feel that they have no strange thoughts. Therefore, at the moment when the abdication ceremony is about to begin, on the altar of sacrifice to heaven, there is a scene where all people return to their hearts and wishes.

Seeing this scene, Master Jiuji must be very happy. His original slight worry was thrown to somewhere. He did not know that the dungeon he had worked hard to manage had been broken, nor did he know that the Shadow Legion he had worked hard to cultivate had been eliminated, nor did he know that Hua Tianying, the king of the Hualong Empire, who had been imprisoned for a long time, had been rescued.

Where all officials gathered was the low ring outside the altar in the middle of the sacrifice hall. The city lord Dongfang Bi of Xuanwu City, the city lord of Baihu City, the city lord Nangong Hong of Zhuque City, the city lord Bei Chenxue of Qinglong City, and the city lord Ximen Dingtian of Qinglong City, stood in front respectively. The eyes of the four people all emitted complex and difficult-to-understand light, staring at the king Hua Tianying and the national teacher Jiuji on both sides of the high altar. Only they themselves knew what they thought.

The terrain is slightly higher than the gathering of officials, a group of people with simple clothes but noble temperaments, men and women, young and old... Everyone has a calm face, but their eyes are filled with sadness. They are the people who cannot understand why the dignified empire king Hua Tianying abdicated the throne during the heyday of the Hualong Empire's strength, because they are all members of the royal family, including Hua Tianying's elders, Hua Tianying's brothers, or Hua Tianying's wife and daughter, etc.... The King of Baoyang and his daughter Liusha were also among them...

But Hua Tianying is the king, and he is willing to give up this throne. What can they say? What is the use of saying it? How sad is it to watch the country that the ancestors have worked hard on fall into the hands of his surname?

When a few more solemn and loud sounds of the ancient bell sounded, a beautiful middle-aged man in plain clothes and high buns walked up to the altar and began to read the sacrificial text, which was like reading the opening speech of the abdication ceremony that was difficult to understand, vaguely recalling the footprints of the royal family for thousands of years... When the middle-aged man read it loudly with a rich expression, the sadness in the eyes of the royal family members was even more serious, and looking at Hua Tianying with a big belly, there was still a bit of shame and shame.

But Hua Tianying had a bright smile on his face, as if this abdication ended his heart.

"It seems that Your Majesty really wants to abdicate the throne to the national master!" Beichenxue, who was as careful as he was, had a silver wind blowing, and his face as white as snow murmured with a mysterious color.

Her whisper was not too big or too small. Whether it was standing behind her or the officials next to her, most of them could hear it clearly. Dongfang Bi and Nangong Hong exchanged their eyes, and nodded their heads in understanding, and their eyes and expressions were still looking at the top of the altar.

Since they decided to attend the abdication ceremony, they were fully prepared, that is, to watch the changes. Whether the abdication ceremony was successful or not, they did not make any unwise moves. At the same time, they were looking forward to the prophetic person appearing again. They were willing to believe it and were very sure that he would appear.

The opening speech of the abdication ceremony was very long, so long that if it was not in the early morning, but at noon, many people would faint due to heatstroke.

But no one talked too much. He waited until the middle-aged man finished reading it before he focused his eyes on King Hua Tianying. At this time, it should be time for him to say a few words.

Hua Tianying is very eloquent and fluent in words. He speaks very differently from Hua Tianying before. Hua Tianying used to speak very smoothly and he is very steady in doing things. Although many people feel this abnormality, no one would have thought that Hua Tianying is not the real Hua Tianying.

Now, Hua Tianying is commending the contributions made by the Jiuji National Master as many as his knowledge. After he said this, almost all the good things in the entire empire were done by Jiuji National Master alone, and he almost said that his son was born in the Jiuji Gang.

"No matter how much credit the national teacher has, he is always a minister. I really don't know what Your Majesty thinks." Nangong Hong was quite straightforward. When he heard Hua Tianying put all the credit on Jiuji, he couldn't help but mutter.

If Jiuji hears this, he will inevitably record Nangong Hong on the enemy's list. However, no one of the officials next to him will contradict Nangong Hong, even if they have the idea of ​​supporting Jiuji in their hearts.

No matter how great the ministers are, they are because the leader of the king is good, and they have great contributions to their subordinates. The bosses must make more contributions. Therefore, if you just say that Jiuji has made great contributions, you have to abdicate the throne, this reason is a bit far-fetched.

However, for the Jiuji National Master, this reason is enough. As long as there is a reason, as long as the king agrees to abdicate and no one opposes it, then he will be a foregone conclusion to become the king.

Therefore, when it was his turn to go to the altar to take the oath, his bald head shone with bright light in the sun. The refracted light made people understand what excitement, pride, and the joy of success.

Looking at the shiny bald head below and listening to the shaking words in his mouth, I hummed with contempt: "This is the thickest and most hypocritical and shameless person I have ever seen."

Hua Tianying next to him responded calmly: "Who doesn't have a mask of hypocrisy when living in the world?"

Hua Tianying, who can talk to me, is naturally the real king Hua Tianying rescued from the dungeon by the power of the nine oxen and two tigers. At this time, we are in the void stagnation barrier created by the five guardian beasts. Unless we have the superimposed strength of the five guardian beasts, no one can get in touch with anything in this small barrier.

The barrier is located in the air about four meters in the middle of the altar, so whether it is the middle-aged man in front or the fake king, they are moving under the noses of Hua Tianying and me.

In this barrier, I once again looked at Hua Tianying with a different look. His calm expression and calm mind made me mistakenly think that the things that were born on the altar of sacrifice to heaven had nothing to do with him.

Hua Tianying's sentence, which contains the philosophy of life, made me secretly shocked, and at the same time I put away my inner contempt for Jiuji. Indeed, in life, who can do without a mask of hypocrisy? Even saints have times when they put on masks for good lies.

When I am hypocritical, it may be even worse than Jiuji. What power do I have to despise Jiuji's hypocrisy?

Perhaps Hua Tianying had such an idea in his heart, so he would calmly watch the abdication ceremony proceeding calmly. However, no matter how calm he was, when the fake king was about to deliver the imperial seal to the Jiuji National Master, he still couldn't help but push me down and remind me... After all, after the handover of the jade seal was completed, Jiuji was no longer the national master...

In fact, he doesn't need to remind me at all. I have taken action. The fake king has good acting skills, but his strength is not good. Besides, I use the instant transfer and the demon's hand to directly grab the jade seal in his hand. Even if the jade seal is from the hands of a master like Jiuji, I can still take it over, let alone him?

Once the jade seal was successful, before Jiuji's bald donkey could react, I had already blocked Hua Tianying from the stagnant barrier of the void and quickly opened the distance between Jiuji and the fake king.

The sudden change made everyone on the altar of sacrifice to heaven stupid. The imperial seal was taken away, and two identical kings appeared in a while.

However, after being stupid, everyone reacted somewhat. When the fake king looked in panic and when the Jiuji National Master stared at me in resentment and surprise, all officials and people from the royal family rushed to the altar one after another. Especially the four city lords such as Dongfang Binan Gong Hong and Baoyang King were the first to ascend to the altar, but between the two kings, they didn't know what choice they made.

He handed the jade seal to Hua Tianying, and I smiled and looked at Jiuji: "Master National Master, are you surprised that your dungeon will be revealed? Are you surprised that your natal puppet will be killed? Are you..."

Jiuji is worthy of being Lao Jiang. Before I could finish my words, he sternly said: "You traitor, you are so bold. You dare to pretend to be Your Majesty and steal the jade seal. If you come, you won't take it down for me!"

The surrounding imperial guards shouted loudly and were about to line up the officials and royal members to capture me. At this moment, Hua Tianying beside me laughed a lot, and his breath told me that his strength may not be as strong as Jiujiji, but it does not mean that he is a person without any power.

Hua Tianying's laughter made all the guards stop. After all, this laughter has not been heard much in the palace before, and it seems that it has not been heard recently. Although they are just small guards, they are not fools. At this time, they can't help but have a question of which one is the real king.

Seeing that the Imperial Guards stopped, Hua Tianying showed a hint of relief, and at the same time, he looked at Jiuji with a huge momentum: "Jiuji, I have not asked you about the crime of ordering someone to pretend to be me and imprison me. You should say that I am a fake and want to take me, and your heart is punished."

"That's right, Jiuji, you are so anxious to take us. Why don't you have a ghost in your heart?" As soon as I finished speaking, Jiuji glared at me with a fierce look and pointed at the fake king beside him and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty is here, no one has come yet. I will arrest Tianyi and the traitor who pretended to be your Majesty for me."

Just as the Imperial Guards were hesitating, the King of Baoyang shouted loudly, and stared at the fake king with his eyes fixed on the wandering eyes: "Master, they can't escape, let alone, the abdication ceremony has not been completed yet. Don't you think this matter should be handled by Your Majesty himself?"
Chapter completed!
