"Master Ho, please rise."
张封话语中没有任何怪罪的意思,反而是把心识望向了这位飞升刺客。
之前何道长等人术法挪移,把刺客钉固在了百丈之外,也是一个安全的距离。
此时道道术法紧锁,国运环绕,他只有束手就擒,坐以待毙。
"Who sent you?"
Zhang Feng got off the carriage and walked towards the assassin.
何道长也赶忙跟上,同时贺散人与莫家三兄弟等人,也如数跟来。
只是玩家等人,是过来看热闹的,看一位飞升修士的生死被王爷一句话判定。
只有何道长、贺散人,与天空中的五位修士,是忠心的保护王爷。
张封见到这个情况,也知道何道长等人没有杀他,是想让自己审问一番。
说到底,任谁碰到了刺杀,都想知道谋后策划是谁,以及什么原因。
This is the only way to uproot the problem from the root and nip it in the bud.
张封同样是这样的想法,想知道是什么样的人,也能指挥动飞升修士。
但张封也知道询问这些逆天而行的修士,基本得不到什么答案,也没有什么期望,期望从他口中得出点心消息。
可是午道长看到王爷过来,又感知到自己实力被如数压制,没有丝毫反抗的余力后,却不等张封多问,就直言求饶道,
"Your Highness, spare me! I was sent by the third prince of the Kingdom of Jin..."
“晋国三皇子?”张封听到这话,望向旁边时刻待命的何道长,“如果本王没有记错,晋国在二十一年前已经灭国。”
“回王爷..”何道人拱手回话,“晋国确实在二十一年前灭国。且晋国的所有皇子、皇室,也皆被大将军所押,尽皆关入天牢,于一月内接连问斩。”
“既然都死了..”张封点头,望向求饶跪拜的午道长,“你说的晋国三皇子又是何人?难不成是骗本王?”
“小道万万不敢!”午道长赶忙赔罪,又如是相告,“三皇子向来心思缜密,为人小心。于此,他为了晋国太子争权之祸。于二十九年前,在南吴国中特意找到了一位与他相貌相似的人。
花费五年,三皇子精心培养此人的言行、又分他一丝神念,告知有关的所有记忆,防止修士探查,发现傀儡的神念与三皇子不同。
To the relatives of the third prince, he appeared to be the actual third prince.
Little did they know, the third prince was silently manipulating this puppet.
且因这件事情,三皇子灵魂受损,境界跌落,直到如今,曾经身为皇子,吃过无数天才地宝的他,才堪堪金丹境界。
可也是因为此事,在当日大将军抓捕皇室时,此人顶了上去..”
午道长说到这里,又赶忙跪拜请罪,“王爷,小道也是一月前才知道此事..”
The meaning behind Master Wu's words is nothing but to admit that he was "hiding and not reporting".
同样,要不是少主说出了这件事,承认了皇子身份,午道长也不会帮忙刺杀。
因为少主所承诺的国师与香火事情,只有皇子的身份才能实现。
Wu Daochang is still very aware and realistic.
including the crimes that were explained earlier, it's better than having someone else investigate.
但也是让王爷尽早相信,他手里还有一条‘大鱼’,希望王爷网开一面。
“嗯。”张封听到三皇子如此神策,也是轻轻点头,感觉这三皇子有点东西。
This noon the Taoist priest seems to be quite interesting, it seems that he has prepared both hands.
也是,此行属于非常冒险,不仅失败定当被擒,生死难测,就连成功之后也有祸事,余生不安。
Therefore, the profit-seeking Wo Daochang must make some preparations.
只要被抓,他就报出少主的情报,拿出这位亡国皇子的尊贵身份,希望大齐可以法外开恩。
Plus, as an ascended cultivator, he can be quite a useful asset.
I believe, with the interests at stake, Daqi will be somewhat lenient.
但这些关于少主的情报、以及更隐秘的隐藏点,都是午道长接触少主以后,偷偷调查出来的。
少主虽然也告诉他许多事情,可关于这些‘保命根本’的事情上,少主没有告诉他,也不知道他知情。
"Then tell me where the Third Prince is hiding?" Zhang Feng looked at Wu Daochang.
And at the same time.
On the square outside the banquet hall.
The imperial guards coming and going were also clearing away several bodies.
不出意外,他们是随午道长一同展开刺杀的刺客,希望可以借助刺杀圣上,声东击西,吸引皇宫高手的目光,让宫外的午道长得手。
However, they never knew until their deaths that they had died for nothing.
“孙公公。”圣上此时正站在大殿外,又倾听王爷府方向的位置,向着身边的孙公公道:“王爷府的国运有些波动,看来朕没有猜错,果然是调虎离山的计策。”
圣上说着,转身带着远处的禁卫,向着皇宫御书房的位置走,“回宫路上有侍卫护着,你就不用时刻跟着朕了。去皇宫外看看,照顾一下王爷。”
“陛下..”孙公公听到这话,却又跟紧两步,小心询问,“若是刺杀王爷者,是他朝重臣..这该当如何..”
孙公公说着,虽然话语有点不太好听,颇有一些别人杀王爷可以,但王爷杀他们,就有点不对的意思。
But this is also for the sake of the prince, for the consideration of the emperor, and for the sake of the society of Da Qi.
因为若是其余朝廷的大修士过来,这就要想一想,是不是其余朝廷合谋,想要对大齐动手了。
若是这样,那当然是以和为贵,先用这名刺客,去质问其中一朝罪责,然后暗中准备大战,并派出暗手,瓦解他们的联盟。
This is the best way to deal with the merger of six countries.
Afterwards, it is for the consideration of the prince.
是考虑杀一人是简单,但飞升修士都多有宗门、家族,数百年,数千年的传承。
Killing him will bring endless trouble in the future.
After all, the prince likes to travel and does not like others to follow him.
孙公公非常担心这一点,怕这些寻仇之人,在王爷游历时,找到可乘之机。
但圣上听到,却转身望向赶忙躬身的孙公公,“一切听王爷的意思,他若放,便让刺客走。若是王爷不放,不论何人,皆可杀之。”
"Yes!" Grandpa Sun didn't say anything, and went straight out of the palace to carry out the order.
When he arrived outside the palace, he walked quickly to the street of the Prince's mansion.
孙公公看到街角处的王爷好似在审问刺客之后,却稍等十几息,等见到王爷审问完了犯人,又看似让犯人引路的时候,才上前几步。
At once, the people saw Sun Gonggong coming and hurriedly bowed to him.
可是孙公公念着圣上交代的事情,略微一点头答过,就向着王爷行礼询问道,
'My lord...how should we deal with this thief?'
‘先留着吧。’张封回到轿子台沿,望着前方被押着的午道长,‘万一他引的路不对,抓不到他的主子,还要继续审问一下。’
张封说着,又询问般的望向孙公公,‘难道陛下还有别的意思?’
张封话语没有任何隐瞒,直接问孙公公来的目的,是不是受圣上旨意,对午道长还有别的安排?
也是张封经历了这么多的世界,知道顶尖修士对于各朝来说,虽然不是国之根本,但也是梁柱一样的基石。
If they are killed, it would indeed be a bit of a shame.
于是张封就觉得,圣上或许是希望自己松松口,然后放午道长一马?
Then he could see if he could make use of him?
These were all Zhang Feng's own thoughts.
张封感觉圣上既然是圣上,那肯定是心怀大局,一切为利益考虑。
但孙公公听到张封询问,继而想都不想的如实言道:‘陛下之前告诉老奴,不管行刺者是何人,何朝,王爷尽管处置就是。’
孙公公说到这里,又捧手一礼,‘区区飞升修士而已。王爷不必手软,也不必为陛下担心。’
Zhang Fang couldn't object and sat back onto the sedan chair.
孙公公再行一礼,走到轿子前,一边示意贺散人启程,一边望向了看守午道长的何道长等六人,让他们回宫。
As for the task of escorting He Daolong, arresting the leaders of the cult, he would take care of it himself.
Otherwise, Grandpa Sun would not be at ease, and neither would the emperor.
Meanwhile.
In a courtyard thirty li away.
少主在原地走来走去,不时又看了看天色,终于无法再保持一副运筹帷幄的样子,反而是一边向着屋里走,一边向着黑袍道,
'Wudao Zhang has not come back yet... there must be trouble.'
看来..余下的事情不需要做了,你我如今先找个地方藏起来,等待这两天时间过去,再找机会出城..’
‘是!’黑袍跟着少主向着屋里走,‘听少主所言,属下也忽然想到,今日朝宴宫遇袭,张封被午道长刺杀,想必用不了多久,帝都内就该戒严了。
"Nowadays, it is really not a good time to leave the city..."
‘唉..’少主摇摇头,走到床边,掀开了被褥,下面露出了一个地穴入口,通道通往另一条街上的院子,
If Master Wu's plan succeeded, why should we go through all this?
The young master chuckled with a hint of frustration, and entered the underground passage.
好似因为午道长的失误,让他有无穷的后续计划没有施展。
Otherwise, just wait here for the return of Daoist Wu at noon.
皆因在他的算计中,只要午道长成功,就会来这里报告自己,随后就是静看帝都大乱,再借助尚在帝都的便利,联系城内的其余亡国同辈,一同谋划。
But now, Wudaochang made a mistake.
Death is better, at least they don't know where they are hiding.
就怕午道长没死,又为了保全自己,就把他们给出卖了。
少主心思通透,是时刻都知道两人更多的是合作关系,不能保证午道长的忠诚。
之前表演的那一场亡国修士的报恩,也是做给黑袍看的,让他们更加忠心。
But things didn't go as planned, it seems that Wudao Zhang is in trouble now.
这样一来,只要午道长出卖他们,那么出城是错,很可能会被抓个正着。
Staying here is also risky, as there is a fear that Wudao Zhang may turn against Dachi and lead people to surround them.
You can only move a certain distance first, and then slowly think of a solution.
并且少主现在也有点悔恨,悔恨他给午道长说的太多了,又让午道长知道了他的身份。
This way, if he’s sold, he'll really be turned upside down.
But then, looking at it from a different perspective.
要不是他自报家门,用亡国皇子的身份,动之以情,又对午道长无任何隐瞒,许下承诺,晓之以‘利’。
How could an immortal who has ascended to the heavens be so devoted to him?
毕竟藏藏掩掩,什么都不告诉,怕是午道长都不会见他,别说如今答应他行此计。
As time went by.
少主两人顺着密道,也来到了一条街外的另一处巷子院落。
这时两人已经换好了寻常粗衣,但口袋内却揣着大把银票,准备连夜出门,找个稍远一点的寻常人家住着。
As for how to keep it secret, dead people are the safest. This is not a problem.
前提,是用银票打开门,然后在屋内灭口,这样动静最小。
The young master has already figured out everything, just waiting to find a suitable target.
Just as they were leaving the courtyard.
Suddenly, the lights came on with a loud clatter.
少主望着门外的张封众人,与沉默的午道长,又看了看张封身边的孙公公,知道有皇帝身边的这条鹰犬在,自己绝对跑不了以后,也顿住了脚步,换为了洒然一笑,向着张封问道:“你就是张封?没想到你果然没死..”
“大胆!”孙公公见少主直呼王爷姓名,顿时怒目圆瞪,杀机弥漫方圆,空气中的潮气弥漫成冰晶。
少主望着随时能杀死自己的孙公公,虽然害怕,但却紧咬着牙齿,脸上保持镇定的神色,好似不为所动。
黑袍不发一言,挡在少主面前,一副视死如归的模样,又恨恨的望着午道长。
张封则是望了一眼强行保持平静的少主,又虚手一抬,制止想要出手的孙公公后,向着孙公公问道:“孙公公,派人行刺本王是什么罪名?”
“回王爷。”孙公公听到王爷询问,顿时小心的躬身行礼,四周冰晶消散,“行刺与参与行刺王爷者,其罪当诛,祸连九族,拆庙宇神像,断永世传承香火。”
"Hmm," Zhang Feng nodded, looking at the young master who was barely able to stand.
Click--
少主看到张封问都不问,就要处死他以后,心里的恐惧再也压不下去,一下子跪坐在了地上。
“王爷!”午道长也跪拜在侧,求饶喊道:“请您念在小道带路有功..还请开恩啊..”
“刺杀有罪,又背信弃义?”张封扫了他一眼,转身走出街道,“律法有罪,礼法也有罪。就把这三人押入天牢,明日一同问斩吧。”
