Chapter 194 "Rebellious son, you still don't kneel down and kowtow to me!" When
the Western Chu Emperor was young, he was considered a wise ruler who could govern the country well.
But as he grew older, he became like many kings recorded in history books, indulging in beauty and pursuing the so-called way to immortality.
For this reason, he also did many absurd things, causing the people of the country to curse him.
Despite this, he did not restrain himself. Instead, he became more and more aggressive, spending a lot of money to seek the so-called way to immortality, and even killed his only grandson for this.
From then on, the Western Chu Emperor often had nightmares every time he fell asleep, until he went to kneel down and worship his ancestors every night, and then he got better.
It was no longer a secret in the palace that the Emperor of Western Chu went to kneel down and worship his ancestors every night. It was spread secretly in the palace that the Emperor of Western Chu kneeled down to worship his ancestors late at night to offset his debauchery during the day, but it was actually true.
"Your Majesty."
In the Fengxian Hall, the old eunuch stood aside and handed the lit incense in his hand to the kneeling Emperor of Western Chu.
The Emperor of Western Chu reached out to take it, then closed his eyes and raised the incense in his hand above his head, kowtowed several times very piously, and then handed the incense to the old eunuch beside him.
The old eunuch took the incense, inserted it into the incense ash burner, and then respectfully withdrew as usual and closed the door, leaving the Emperor of Western Chu alone.
The Emperor of Western Chu would stay here for a cup of tea every night.
The big and small hiding in the dark watched that the Emperor of Western Chu was the only one left in the huge Fengxian Hall.
The next second, the two heard the Western Chu Emperor suddenly yelled: "Ah~"
This yell frightened the two of them.
Wanwan: [Ah, you scared the cute me]
Xiao Moqing: Damn old man, you scared the handsome me.
In the dark, under the sight of the big and small, the two watched the Western Chu Emperor yell, then opened his arms, knelt on the ground and said: "Ah~ Dear ancestors, I kowtow to you, your unfilial descendants."
After saying that, the Western Chu Emperor slowly kowtowed to the many portraits hanging in front of him.
After bowing, the Western Chu Emperor looked up at the many portraits in front of him and murmured slowly: "I, the unfilial grandson, also remembered the teachings of my ancestors today and sincerely repented. However, I am now old and a little greedy for food. I hope that the ancestors can rest assured that I have absolutely not wasted anything..."
The Western Chu Emperor knelt on the ground, as if he was telling a running account, describing what he had done today.
"As for my lust for beauty, I hope the ancestors will not blame me. When you are full and warm, you will think about lust. I am also an ordinary person. If the ancestors were alive, they might be like me..." After
the Western Chu Emperor finished speaking, he immediately realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said. He was so scared that he immediately shut his mouth and pretended to slap himself a few times.
"I am wrong. I have tainted the thoughts of our ancestors with my filthy ideas. I am outspoken. I hope you won't blame me." After he
finished speaking, the Emperor of Western Chu kowtowed several times respectfully to the portrait in front of him, fearing that the ancestors would be displeased and would come into his dream and scold him for being an unfilial son.
Wanwan: [Looking at the Western Chu Emperor like this, I suddenly remembered a saying, Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years. This Western Chu Emperor did something evil, and as a result, he dreamed that his ancestors pointed at his nose and scolded him for being an unfilial son, and wanted to take him to the Avici Hell with them]
[Hahahahaha, then the Western Chu Emperor was scared. In order not to be dragged into the Avici Hell by his ancestors after his death, he came here every day to kneel and worship, trying to wash away his sins in front of the ancestors]
Listening to Wanwan's words, Xiao Moqing thought of the evil things that the Western Chu Emperor had done, and his heart was even more contemptuous of him.
This mediocre emperor, for the sake of immortality, actually made his only grandson a fool.
In order to wash away his sins, he kneeled here to worship the ancestors.
If his ancestor really had spirits, he would jump up and slap his descendants.
Oh, no, he will be his ancestor soon!
Thinking of this, Xiao Moqing moved his wrists and felt itchy.
If possible, he would slap him hard on behalf of his ancestor.
The Western Chu Emperor muttered for a while, and when he was about to get up and go back to relive the gentle fragrance, he suddenly heard a light cough:
"Cough--"
Such a heavy cough scared him, and he immediately asked alertly: "Who?"
"Cough cough--"
The Western Chu Emperor stood up with a snort and said sternly: "Who is playing tricks here?!"
The Western Chu Emperor was frightened by the sudden cough, and when he was about to shout for someone to come in, he heard a low roar:
"Rebellious son! Kneel down!"
Hearing the sudden heavy voice, the Western Chu Emperor's legs and feet almost reflexively softened, and the whole person fell to the ground with a thump.
He widened his eyes and looked at the portrait in front of him with horror.
"Who... who is speaking?" The Western Chu Emperor trembled with his legs, his eyes fixed on the portrait in front of him.
If he heard correctly, the voice seemed to come from the portrait.
"Who am I? I am your ancestor!"
The man finished speaking, and before the Western Chu Emperor could react, he suddenly felt a fierce palm wind coming towards him. He lost his balance and was thrown to the ground.
The next second, he heard the voice again: "Rebellious son, you still don't kneel down and kowtow to me!"
Perhaps the voice was too dignified, and the frightened Western Chu Emperor, whose face turned pale, crawled up from the ground in panic, then stomped his feet, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, asking in disbelief: "You...are you really my ancestor?"
The ancestor who slapped him in his dream came to him when he was still awake.
Recalling what the ancestor said to him in his dream, the Western Chu Emperor was startled, and suddenly realized that the ancestor would not come out this time to take him to hell.
Hell!
The Western Chu Emperor was so frightened that his face turned pale. He trembled as he kowtowed to the portrait and said, "I am an unfilial son... I pay my respects to my old... my ancestor."
Seeing the Western Chu Emperor kneeling on the ground and kowtowing in fear, Xiao Moqing, who was hiding in the dark, almost laughed his mouth off.
No way, no way, did the Western Chu Emperor really believe this?
After the Western Chu Emperor knelt on the ground and kowtowed, he saw that the old ancestor did not turn back for a long time. He carefully raised his head and shouted to the portrait: "Old ancestor? I don't... don't know why the old ancestor came to find his grandson? What... what is the so-called business?"
"What is the business?" Xiao Moqing suddenly raised his voice and said: "Rebellious son, you have done all those evil things, and you dare to ask me why?!"
Hearing the old ancestor's angry voice, the Western Chu Emperor was so scared that his body could not help shaking. He knelt on the ground and trembled, saying:
"Grandson... grandson is stupid, please... please give me some advice." After the Western Chu Emperor finished speaking, he asked fearfully: "Could it be... could it be that the old ancestor really came to take my life?"
