Chapter 718 He also kidnapped the fourth prince?
Master Mingze is a monk who has left home and has always been calm in the face of insults. However, he became angry because of the matter of these sixteen children.
The Mingjing Temple where he was located was within the territory of Da Chu, so naturally he was familiar with the people's livelihood in Da Chu.
Although the Emperor of Chu was a hot-tempered man, he always put the people first, which is what an emperor should be like.
With someone as caring as Princess Yong'an by his side, the Great Chu will surely last for thousands of years.
It is no wonder that Da Chu has been able to develop more and more rapidly over the years.
Seeing that Li Cheng in front of him was still unrepentant, Master Mingze raised his voice again: "Your Majesty, only by treating all things with kindness can you receive the blessing of heaven, and the Dali Kingdom can also enjoy long-term peace and stability."
"Someone come! Drag this fake monk away for me!" How could Li Cheng stop at this point? He had already done so many things before, it was impossible for him to stop.
He must become the overlord of this world!
He thought about it and couldn't come up with any good solution, so he could only order someone to take Mingze away.
He would never allow this old monk to delay his auspicious time!
Besides, why hasn't Master Lin come yet? It's been a long time since he came.
People all over the world have great respect for Master Mingze, so when the guards serving beside Li Cheng heard what Li Cheng said, they opened their mouths in surprise and did not move for a while.
"Are you deaf?" Li Cheng was angry and said, "I have seen this Master Mingze in Da Chu before, and he was not like this at all. Now he comes here to confuse people with lies, just to stop my sacrifice."
"Then Your Majesty, what is your sacrifice?" Finally, a brave citizen stood up in the crowd and shouted loudly.
"Why don't we take a look?"
"If Your Majesty really wants to sacrifice infants, then we don't want such a peaceful and prosperous country."
As public opinion grew more and more heated, Li Cheng couldn't help but frown.
He had said long ago that these unruly people should not be allowed to participate in today's sacrifice, but Lin Mosheng insisted that everyone should be witnesses.
He looked up in the direction of the palace again, but still did not see the man.
If we delay any further, I'm afraid we will miss the best opportunity.
However, these guards did not dare to disobey His Majesty's wishes, so they stepped forward to capture Master Mingze.
Master Mingze looked at the guards who had surrounded him and clasped his hands together in front of them, but none of them dared to step forward.
They knew in their hearts that His Majesty must have been angry because he was humiliated, so he asked them to capture Master Mingze. After all, all these imperial guards knew that His Majesty was searching for babies everywhere.
But they didn't expect that His Majesty wanted to use them for sacrifice.
Seeing that the guards around him were useless, Li Cheng's eyes widened, he drew out his sword and pointed it at Mingze in front of him.
"Mingze, how dare you disrupt my sacrifice!" After saying this, he took a step forward, and the sword in his hand went straight in the direction of Master Mingze.
Mingze dodged the attack with extremely fast speed.
"Your Majesty, I hope you can turn back from your wrong path." Even when he was attacked, Master Mingze's tone remained very calm.
The scene became chaotic for a while.
When Li Cheng saw that his attack missed, he became even angrier and launched a more fierce attack on Mingze again. After all, Mingze was older.
After a stagger, he almost fell down, and at this time, Lu Xingwan and Ji Rong flew onto the altar.
No one saw how the two of them appeared, but when they saw clearly, Lu Xingwan and Ji Rong were already standing firmly on the altar.
Ji Rong took a step forward and supported Master Mingze's body steadily.
Lu Xingwan leaped up and kicked the sword in Li Cheng's hand like the wind. The sword flew out of his hand instantly and fell to the ground with a clang.
Just now when he was far away, Lu Xingwan wanted to use his spiritual power to solve the problem, but when he thought about the fact that they were now in the mortal world and on this altar, if he really used his spiritual power, it might cause panic among the people.
After Lu Xingwan landed, he looked firmly at the emperor in front of him, emitting a noble and inviolable aura.
Isn’t this the little princess of the Great Chu Emperor?
Li Cheng was startled by her sudden action and stood there in a daze.
I didn't expect that so many problems would arise during this sacrifice.
Thinking of this, he suddenly turned his head and looked below the altar. He wondered if these children were still there at this moment.
At this time, Lu Xingwan turned sideways and looked at Shang Zhi who was standing under the altar. Shang Zhi nodded at her, indicating that the children had been rescued safely.
Lu Xingwan finally felt relieved. She turned around and looked at Li Cheng in front of her with a smile.
"Dog Emperor, those children have been rescued!"
"You want to sacrifice human lives to heaven, but you must first ask Tian Tong if he agrees!"
Lu Xingwan didn’t know whether Tiantong disagreed or not, but she would definitely not agree. If she encountered such a thing, she would definitely not ignore it.
Li Cheng had also been prepared. He smiled at Lu Xingwan in front of him, and then called the guards around him to come forward.
Soon, the guards brought in the imprisoned Prince Yixuan and his wife and the fourth prince.
Lu Xingwan frowned and looked at Li Cheng in front of him. This man was actually possessed.
He actually kidnapped the prince of another country and his own brother in front of so many civil and military officials and common people.
The moment Lu Xingwan saw it, he was immediately furious. Not to mention anything else, he actually kidnapped the prince of the Great Chu Kingdom?
Isn't it easy to save them yourself?
But the moment Lu Xingwan raised her hand, she was held down by Ji Rong.
Ji Rong shook his head gently at her, indicating that she didn't need to worry.
It seems that Li Cheng is determined to win this sacrifice. The reason why he kidnapped King Yixuan and the fourth prince is to have enough leverage in his hands so that no one dares to touch him.
"Where is Pei Chuyan? Is Pei Chuyan here too?" Li Cheng is completely crazy now.
He seemed to no longer care about what the people thought of him. He was determined to go on with the sacrifice no matter what.
Lu Xingwan looked at Ji Rong standing beside her, and undercurrents surged between their eyes.
Li Cheng is so crazy and insistent on going ahead with the sacrifice, I'm afraid things are not going to be simple.
Could it be that just for the sake of a child, he would completely ignore the way people around the world look at him?
You know, if an emperor actually kidnapped the children of his own people for sacrifice, who would dare to support and trust him?
