I'm the villain in the book

But apart from Wei Qiaoling, Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen obviously had no appetite.

"Father, mother..."

With half a chicken leg stuffed in her mouth, Wei Qiaoling asked vaguely, "You, why don't you eat it?"

"..."

The husband and wife looked at each other, and finally Qin Caizhen said casually: "You eat yours, where do you talk so much!"

"I'm curious!" Wei Qiaoling stared with big eyes, unwilling to let go.

"you......"

Facing her daughter's questioning, Qin Caizhen hesitated for a while and then explained helplessly: "Your elder brother is going to do a big event today, and your father and I are thinking about it, so there is no time to eat."

"Okay, eat quickly, it's time to practice after eating."

"Oh......"

Nodding half understanding, Wei Qiaoling lowered her head and continued to eat.

But after she took two bites, she raised her head quietly, secretly observed Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen who were full of sorrow...

"Father, mother..."

Suddenly, a slightly immature, but very serious voice sounded in the ears of this "wicked couple".

"Brother is so capable, no matter what he can do!"

"Hurry up and eat!"

"..."

Hearing the sudden comfort from their daughter, Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen were stunned for a moment.

Seeing that there was no response from the two of them, Wei Qiaoling thought that her persuasion hadn't worked, so she couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.

She pouted, and soon seemed to remember something, and suddenly took out a handkerchief wrapped in something from her bosom under the surprised eyes of Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen.

"My elder brother secretly gave this to me when my father and I went to Shuzhou last time. He said that it tastes good when we take it with us."

"Here, let me lend it to you first!"

While talking, Wei Qiaoling unwrapped the handkerchief wrapped in layers, and held up the contents as if showing off some rare treasure.

This is a very simple dark green jade pendant, with a small character engraved on the front and back.

Clear, never.

......

Shen time.

Shuzhou City, the state government office.

"Clang! Clang! Clang..."

A large number of bells and drums rang one after another, and it slowly stopped after a full [-] rings.

At this time, the Shuzhou Prefecture Government has completely changed its appearance compared to a month ago. From the appearance alone, it looks like a miniature version of the imperial palace.

On the tall vermilion city wall, Ning Yuke, dressed in a golden gown, stood on the top of the wall, her clear and black eyes were full of firmness and dignity.

Her appearance at this time cannot be said to be similar, but she is completely a queen.

After all, the one riding the clouds and fog on the clothes is not a python, but a dragon.

"..."

"There is no peace, there is no return, there is no blame for hardships..."

Beside him, the ceremony officials who were also dressed in extremely formal clothes were reading loudly the Proclamation of Li Wang, the content of which was nothing more than words such as "Follow the will of God", "Blessed children and grandchildren", and "Blessed people are blessed".

Although Ning Yongnian was not mentioned in the entire declaration, this is not important anymore.

Because at the moment when the grand ceremony was completed, Li Wang's rebellion was a fact that could no longer be changed.

At the feet are hundreds of Shuzhou officials standing with their heads bowed.

In the distance, there are thousands of sword-wielding soldiers with grim expressions.

In the distance, there are tens of thousands of people watching the excitement in the dark.

When the very boring but extremely solemn declaration was heard by everyone through the mouth of the ceremonial officer, no matter what attitude they had when they came here before, at this moment they were deeply impressed by this solemn proclamation. The atmosphere is shocking.

The golden sun was on the horizon, and there was no sound within a radius of several miles, only the obscure and difficult ancient words echoed in the air.

"God's will, set the ceremony, obey the public opinion, and tell the world, the ancestral temple, the community..."

"With the tradition of ten thousand years, with the heart of the world..."

"Announce it to the world, and the salty envoys will hear it!"

"So far, Li Cheng!"

"Thank you for your success!"

"kneel!!"

As the last sentence fell heavily, the ritual officer slowly retracted and raised his head, and Ning Yuke also took a step forward.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

According to the law of etiquette, tens of thousands of people present at the moment should kneel down and shout the title of king.

But after three breaths, no one knelt down.

The common people naturally don't understand these things, they will only learn from those who were officials before.

But those hundreds of officials, big and small, all stood there in a daze, their eyes fixed on one direction.

......

"Young Master Wei! You have thought about it!"

Just under the red wall that Ning Yuke had erected, Li Huaizhong almost forcefully squeezed each word out of his throat, and then pieced it together into a low growl.

"As long as you don't kneel! The ceremony won't work! There is still a turning point for this matter!"

"But if you kneel! Then there is no room for it!!"

"Young Master Wei!"

"Think twice! Go ahead!"

"..."

Tens of thousands of people focused their gazes, but Wei Changtian's expression didn't change a bit.

He just turned his head and glanced at the good lobbyist sent by Ning Yongnian, and then walked past Li Huaizhong step by step.

"Eunuch Li, instead of helping Ning Yongnian persuade me, maybe you should worry more about yourself."

"Our accounts haven't been settled yet..."

"Snapped!"

Take the last step, stand upright in front of all the officials in the arrow-like sunlight.

At this time, there are only two people who belong to the front owner.

Ning Yuke above the city wall, Wei Changtian below the city wall.

Then......

"boom!!!"

The latter's raised arms fell, and tens of thousands of people immediately fell to their knees, and without any hesitation, they shouted loudly at the figures on the city wall:

"Long live my king! Long live! Long live!!"

"..."

The deafening mountain cries tore through the sky, and resounded throughout Shuzhou City in Li Huaizhong's desperate eyes.

Wei Changtian watched all this silently, but suddenly turned his head to look in one direction at a certain moment.

There seemed to be a woman standing there just now.

A woman with a peach hairpin on her head.

His eyes widened slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to rush over there.

But before he could take a step, the woman disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Delusion?

Shaking his head, Wei Changtian stood still, and refocused his attention on the King Conferment Ceremony that was about to end.

In front of him, the mountain shouts like waves still did not stop.

indeed.

As Li Huaizhong said, they represent that everything is irreversible, and it also represents that countless people will die because of Wei Changtian's decision.

but.

They also symbolize the arrival of a new era.

One sword, thousands of miles, touches the dragon's gate

Chapter 383 The Window Paper That Can't Be Pierced

The cicadas are exhausted in the lingering summer, and the new autumn geese bring them.

The style of early autumn is very refreshing. They swing down from the spreading clouds, blowing away the heat of summer, blowing off the yellowing leaves on the trees, and quieting the hustle and bustle of Shuzhou City during the day.

Ning Yuke stayed in the "Royal Palace" as the "King of Shu" and hosted a banquet for all the officials in the palace that night.

During the banquet, she still never mentioned Ning Yongnian, but she got up suddenly when the banquet was about to end, and drank three glasses of wine in a row facing the northeast with red eyes.

Northeast, this is the direction of the capital.

It is also where her parents and two younger sisters are buried...

In this way, no matter what the people of Shuzhou thought, the ceremony of conferring the king had been settled under the "all eyes" and ended on the last day of this calm and breezy August.

And the series of shocks and changes it has brought to the entire Daning have just begun.

......

......

Tianji 15 years, the first day of September.

Daning Palace, Shiqu Pavilion.

"Wei Qing, an army of 40 is about to come to Fengyuan, but something happened in Shu Prefecture..."

Shaking his head, Ning Yongnian looked up at Wei Xianzhi in front of him.

"You said, which side should I take care of first?"

"..."

He was dressed in a black robe embroidered with golden flying fish, without any superfluous expression on his face.

Wei Xianzhi raised his eyes and looked at the memorials on the case that were almost piled up into a hill, and quickly replied calmly: "Go back to the emperor, I don't know."

"However, the dog is still trapped in the city of Shuzhou. I naturally hope that the emperor can send troops first to quell the chaos in Shuzhou."

"Stuck in Shuzhou City, yes, Changtian is still in Shuzhou..."

Nodding meaningfully, Ning Yongnian casually threw over a long memorial.

"Wei Qing, this is a report jointly submitted by several censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate today, saying that Ning Yuke's rebellion was instigated by Chang Tian. I don't know if it is true or not... Why don't you take a look? "

"..."

I didn't go to pick up the memorial, and didn't even read it.

Wei Xianzhi just lowered his head, then squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice:
