The poem reads:
Shu Bao Li Shimin was ordered to die in the underworld, Zhang Chong was imprisoned in the prison to see his mother.
The empty coffin is solemn and stirring to Chang 'an, Zhang Chong's battle in the street can be shallow.
After reading the last book, Zhang Chong held the two girls in his arms and walked to the main hall. He continued to watch the wonderful show. Zhang Chong and his wife came to the hall and saw Zhang Mingguang and the others waiting for them. Zhang Chong let go of the two wives and came to Zhang Mingguang and Lianxiang, cupped his hands and said,""Greetings, Father and Mother." The two girls also came to their parents and said in unison,"Daughter-in-law greets father and mother." "Chong-er, there's no need to invite An. Sit down and eat!" Zhang Mingguang said with a smile.”"Thank you, Father and Mother." Zhang Chong and his wife laughed in unison.”Zhang Chong and his wife bowed to Fang Baoyu and the others respectively. They sat down and the maids served breakfast. After the food and wine were finished, Zhang Chong said to Sun Wukong,"Second brother, I'm going to the Qin Manor to protect King Bian. You and Shiyu will protect my parents and everyone in the manor in case Li Keqian comes.”Sun Wukong and Lin Shiyu stepped forward and said in unison,""Big brother, junior brother, don't worry. We won't fail our mission.”Zhang Chong came to Yue Lan and the other two and said,""Two elder sisters, junior sister Yu 'er, you must protect my two wives and our parents well. There will definitely be a fierce battle tonight.”The three women cupped their hands and said,"Brother, don't worry. We won't let you down!"”After Zhang Chong arranged everything, the golden light disappeared. After Zhang Chong left, Fang Baoyu said,"Brother Zhang, when do you think the murderer will make a move on the King of the Side?”Zhang Mingguang smiled and said,""That person is not worth mentioning. Our Great Tang's Holy Lord Li Shimin is as rich as the heavens, and he has been a veteran of the royal family. I don't think he will be in danger.”Fang Baoyu nodded after hearing Zhang Mingguang's words.""Brother Zhang is right, nothing will happen to him.”"Big brothers are right. Let's just wait for Chong-er's good news." Lianxiang smiled.”The two nodded.
Zhang Chong appeared in the center of the Soaring Heaven King Palace with golden light. The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother sat in the middle, looking majestic and extraordinary. The gods stood on both sides. The Jade Emperor looked at Zhang Chong and shouted,"Zhang Chong, why didn't you come to the Heavenly Court to solve the case in Chang 'an?”"I say, old Jade Emperor, how have you been since we parted for three days?" Zhang Chong laughed.”The Jade Emperor replied,"Yes! What do you want!" Zhang Chong looked at the old Jade Emperor and smiled." Jade Emperor, there are more than seven years left in the bet. During these seven years, I will not cause any trouble for the Heavenly Court. The time limit has passed. If you go back on your words, don't blame me for being merciless."”The Jade Emperor looked at Zhang Chong and sneered.”"Old Jade Emperor, do you have to be so afraid of me?" Zhang Chong sneered.”The Jade Emperor smiled and said,"How can I be afraid of you?" What a joke!" "Old Jade Emperor, I'm not here to quarrel with you. I'm here to look for Taibai Jinxing."”Taibai Jinxing stepped forward and smiled.”"Greetings, Taibai Jinxing." Zhang Chong looked at Taibai Jinxing and smiled.”"Great Swordsman Zhang," Taibai Jinxing said with a smile,"why are you looking for me?" Just say it." Zhang Chong smiled." Alright, let me ask you. You said that Chang 'an City would face such a calamity. Why is that?"”Taibai Jinxing smiled." Hero Zhang, let me tell you. Li Keqian is from Pluto. She has a grudge against you for stealing your wife."”"What?" Zhang Chong hurriedly asked. He and I hate each other for stealing our wives. Impossible. We've never met before. How can we hate each other for stealing our wives? Nonsense." Taibai Jinxing smiled and said," Hero Zhang, you are the descendant of the Heavenly King. Your mother, Princess Xiaoxue, was the person of your dreams in her previous life. Due to the rules of the heavens, you can't have a lifetime of strange fate. Zhang Chong, let me tell you a story…"
Xiaoxue was sitting in the Jade Pool Imperial Garden admiring the flowers when Zhang Ji of the Heavenly King came up behind her and hugged her, smiling."Princess Xiaoxue, you're so beautiful! I love you." "Zhang Ji, what are you doing?" Xiaoxue hurriedly said. Let me go, or I'll tell my father.”Zhang Ji looked at Xiaoxue's charming face and smiled."Princess Xiaoxue, don't use father to pressure me, I'm not afraid of him.”As he spoke, he kissed Xiaoxue's face. At this critical moment, Yang Jian shouted,"Zhang Ji, quickly let go of princess Xiaoxue. "Zhang Jiyi was furious when he heard that. He let go of Xiaoxue and pounced on Yang Jian. Yang Jian hurriedly dodged when he saw it. The three sons of the Jade Emperor were not simple. They fought Yang Jian for the princess. Yang Jian raised his blade with both hands. Zhang Ji's morale was high. Zhang Ji retreated and Yang Jian chased him. His black robe flew with the wind. Zhang Ji was the son of the Jade Emperor. He had a crush on Xiaoxue. Yang Jian was not convinced and fought him. The two fought and rushed into Lingxiao. The Jade Emperor knew that he was angry and wanted to kill Zhang Ji. The civil and military immortals begged for mercy and let Zhang Ji go. Zhang Ji was angry and swore to marry Xiaoxue. If he could not have a son in this life, he only wanted to see beauties every day. Taibai Jinxing looked at Zhang Chong and smiled," Zhang Chong, Zhang Ji was your previous life. Because he violated the rules of heaven, he was banished to the mortal world by the Jade Emperor. Coincidentally, Princess Xiaoxue was pregnant. Zhang Ji secretly swore that if he couldn't marry Princess Xiaoxue in this life, he would be her son in the next life. You are Zhang Ji's reincarnation."”"I had a crush on my mother in my previous life. Why do I have a grudge against Li Keqian for stealing his wife?"”
Taibai Jinxing continued,"Let me tell you, your wife, Princess Qiuhua, is the reincarnation of Princess Songhua. She was the lover of Pluto's Li Keqian in her previous life. As they were still in the mortal world, they were banished by the Jade Emperor to the mortal world. Li Keqian is destined to be your nemesis. You will definitely have a battle. Before Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, went to war, I was ordered to take Pluto's Li Keqian back to the heavens. Also, White Tiger's Xue Rengui is going to join the army to protect the eastern expedition. Because of the traitor Zhang Shigui, he almost lost his life. You have to be careful. Find Xue Rengui as soon as possible. Without Xue Rengui, we can't conquer the east.”Zhang Chong smiled and said,"Thank you for informing me before. I will pay attention to it."”" Zhang Chong," the Jade Emperor said," I have already told you everything I need to say. This is an inevitable disaster for Chang 'an. No one can stop it." Perhaps this is a training for you!" Zhang Chong looked at the old Jade Emperor and smiled." As Taibai Jinxing said, I have to call you father."”The Jade Emperor looked at Zhang Chong and smiled." Zhang Chong, you were my son in my previous life. You are no longer my son. Since you have reincarnated into my daughter's womb, you should know how to talk about seniority."”"Old Jade Emperor, I have another request. Can you let me visit my mother in the imperial prison again?" Zhang Chong said with a smile.”The Jade Emperor thought for a moment and replied,""Zhen promises you. Yu Sect's three immortals, accompany him to the imperial prison to visit his mother!”"Thank you, Jade Emperor," Zhang Chong thanked him.”After saying that, he walked towards the imperial prison with them. After Zhang Chong left, the Jade Emperor looked at Taibai Jinxing and said,""Taibai, why haven't we heard from Li Jing and his son?”"Your Majesty, Li Jing and his son are now in Chang 'an." Taibai Jinxing stepped forward and cupped his hands.”The Jade Emperor nodded and replied," That's good. If there's nothing else, I'll leave!"”The gods knelt down to see off the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
Zhang Chong and the three immortals of Yu Sect came to the entrance of the imperial prison, the guard came forward and said: ""Three Exalted Immortals, Hero Zhang, what brings you here?”"The three of us are here on the Jade Emperor's orders to accompany Great Hero Zhang to visit his mother," the middle-ranking general said hurriedly.”"This way please, Hero Zhang!" the guard hurriedly said.”With that, he opened the cell door. Zhang Chong cupped his hands and walked into the cell. Zhang Chong came to Xiaoxue and called out,"Mother, I'm here to see you again.”When Xiaoxue saw that it was Chong-er, whom she had been longing for, she happily said,"My Chong-er, why are you here? I want to die for my mother." As she spoke, she pounced on Zhang Chong, and the mother and son hugged each other. "Mother, I'm unfilial and have made you suffer.”Zhang Chong hugged his mother and cried. "Chong-er, mother doesn't blame you." Xiaoxue's tears also fell. After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Chong let go of Xiaoxue and looked at her,"Mother, I will definitely save you.”"Chong-er, mother believes you. How are your father, Lan 'er, Qing' er, and Hua 'er?" Xiaoxue nodded.”Zhang Chong smiled when he heard his mother's words." Mother, don't worry. My father and the others are all very good. There isn't a day that Father doesn't miss Mother. He asked me to bring him to see you several times."”Xiaoxue shed tears after listening,"Mingguang, I miss you too!"”Zhang Chong looked at his mother and said," Mother, you must take care of yourself. The time limit for my bet with the Jade Emperor has passed. I will save you, Mother!"”Xiaoxue looked at Zhang Chong and nodded. Zhang Chong looked at his mother and said,"Mother, I have a question to ask you.”
"Chong-er, if you have any questions, just ask!" Xiaoxue smiled at Zhang Chong.”Zhang Chong heard Xiaoxue's words and said happily,"Thank you, mother. Mother, I heard from Taibai Jinxing that I am the reincarnation of Zhang Ji. He also said that mother was the person in my dream in my previous life.”Xiaoxue blushed when she heard Zhang Chong's words. After all, the young man in front of her was not Zhang Ji but her own son. Xiaoxue hugged Zhang Chong and said,"That was a long, long time ago. You are the reincarnation of Zhang Ji. Zhang Ji is my father's third son, the Third Prince. As we siblings are not of the same blood, I don't know why, but he actually fell in love with me. However, the heavenly rules did not allow it. We were not fated to be together and could not be together. Later on, he actually raped me. Later, my father and mother found out and sent him to the mortal world. Not long after, I was greedy for love in the mortal world and came to the mortal world behind my father and mother's back. Fortunately, I met your father, Zhang Mingguang. I was married to your father for three years. On the day you were born, the sky was filled with red light, thunder and lightning, and a strange child fell from the sky. That was you, Chong-er. Later on, I found out that you were the reincarnation of Zhang Ji.”Zhang Chong hugged her and said,""Mother, as you said, that Zhang Ji is so infatuated with mother!”"Yeah!" Xiaoxue smiled. I didn't expect him to be so infatuated with me!”Zhang Chong looked at his mother and said," Mother, then they said that I was born to oppose the Heavenly Court. I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't understand it. Why does Zhang Ji have such a huge grudge with the Heavenly Court?"”
Xiaoxue looked at her son and smiled." Chong-er, I'm here to tell you that Zhang Ji has always been dissatisfied with the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother. There were a few times when he wanted to rebel against the Heavenly Court, but he was stopped by me. Perhaps this is God's will."”Zhang Chong looked at his mother and said," Mother, I didn't expect that. Mother, no matter who I was in my previous life, I will be your good son in this life. I will fight the Jade Emperor to the end. If I don't save Mother from prison, I will die without a burial place!"”Zhang Chong swore again in front of his mother. Xiaoxue quickly said,"Bah! Bah! Chong-er, mother forbids you from swearing." "Mother, I won't swear anymore." Zhang Chong laughed.”Xiaoxue nodded after listening. Zhang Chong told Xiaoxue about the murder of Li Keqian and his wife in Chang 'an City. Xiaoxue looked up at the sky and said,""Sin, it's really a sin!"
Li Shimin sat on the throne while the officials stood on both sides. Zhang Chong came to the center of the throne room and knelt down,"Your son greets father!" Li Shi Min waved his hand happily and said,"Prince Consort, rise!"”Zhang Chong stood up and asked,""Father, why hasn't the King of the Side arrived yet? Could something have happened?" Li Shimin quickly said,"That's right, Brother Qin is always the first to attend the court. Today is indeed a little strange."”Zhang Chong quickly said," Oh no, Li Keqian and his wife might have made a move on the King of the Side. This won't do. I have to go and take a look."”Xu Maogong counted with his fingers and said,"The Prince Consort's words make sense. Brother Qin has gone."”As soon as he finished speaking, the inspector hurriedly ran to the center of the throne room and knelt down."Qi, qi, reporting to the emperor, big things are not good.”"What's wrong?" Li Shi Min asked. Hurry up and say it, don't panic!" "The king was killed by two men in black."”Li Shi Min hurriedly stood up and asked,""What is it? Impossible, Brother Qin Wang's martial arts are superior, he wouldn't.”As he spoke, Li Shimin fainted on the throne. At this time, the civil and military officials were in a panic. Zhang Chong ordered people to carry Li Shimin into the inner palace. Chen Lin looked at the civil and military officials and said,"Everyone, don't panic. The emperor will be fine.”Hearing Chen Lin's words, the officials were a little more relaxed, but they were all worried for the current Emperor, Li Shi Min.
Zhang Chong followed him to the Dragon Virtue Hall in the harem. Cheng Yaojin and the others placed Holy Lord Li Shimin on the dragon bed. Zhang Chong looked at Xu Maogong and said,""Uncle Xu, don't worry. Father will be fine.”"Fuma, you have to save the emperor!" Cheng Yaojin hurriedly said.”"I will." Zhang Chong nodded.”Then, she came to Li Shi Min's side and looked at him for a while before tears fell,"Father has already left with King Bian.”Hearing Zhang Chong's words, everyone present knelt down and cried,""No, the heavens will not destroy our Great Tang!”"Uncle Xu, quickly send someone to inform the Empress and the Crown Prince. I'll tell them from time to time."”"Then what should we do now?" asked Xu Maogong.”Zhang Chong looked at Li Shiming and said to Xu Maogong,""Uncle Xu, Father will face this calamity. I want to use this opportunity to lure Li Keqian and his wife online.”"What about the Emperor?" Xu Maogong asked. How should we lure them online?" Zhang Chong whispered the plan into his ear. "That's a good plan. I'll send someone to do it now."”"I'll make a trip to Qin Manor now." Zhang Chong nodded and said.”
When Zhang Chong arrived at the entrance of the Qin Manor's main hall, the first thing he saw was Qin Shubao lying on the table motionlessly. His wife and children were kneeling on both sides, and they were all crying non-stop. When Zhang Chong arrived at the main hall, Qin Huaiyu stood up and cupped his hands, saying,"Qin Huaiyu pays his respects to the Fuma.”After saying that, he knelt down. The others did the same. Zhang Chong hurriedly brought Qin Huaiyu's father over. Big Brother Qin, there's no need to be so polite. My father will be fine. I came here to tell you that when my father learned of your father's death, he followed your father on the spot. "Qin Huaiyu's men knelt down again after hearing this."Emperor, you shouldn't have!" Zhang Chong looked at them and said,"Big Brother Huaiyu, don't be sad. Uncle Qin and the Emperor will be fine."?”Qin Huaiyu cried,"The Emperor left just like that?"”Zhang Chong once again helped Qin Huaiyu up and told him everything he had told Xu Maogong. Qin Huaiyu hurriedly said,"This plan is good." "Big Brother Huaiyu, I want to fight the murderer to the death tonight." I'm going to hell now." Qin Huaiyu and the others were shocked when they heard that.”Zhang Chong nodded. Before they could reply, Zhang Chong had disappeared.
Zhang Mingguang's men were talking in the hall when suddenly, the guard ran in in a panic and said,""Master, something happened!" Zhang Mingguang's men hurriedly stood up. Zhang Mingguang asked,""What happened? Don't panic! Tell me slowly." The guard looked at Princess Qiuhua and said,""Princess, the king was killed and the emperor passed away.”Zhang Mingguang's men knelt on the ground one by one. Qiuhua fainted. Lianxiang and the others hugged her and cried non-stop. After half an hour, Qiuhua slowly opened his eyes. He looked at the others and cried in Lianxiang's arms,"Mother, my father won't die, he won't die.”As he said that, tears streamed down his face, including Zhang Mingguang's men. "When did this happen?" Zhang Mingguang asked the guard. Where's Chong-er?" "It just happened not long ago," the guard said hurriedly."The Fuma went to hell."”"Hua 'er, don't be sad anymore. As long as Chong-er is here, nothing will happen to the Emperor."”"Father, I want to enter the palace to see my father." Qiuhua cried.”Zhang Mingguang quickly said," Hua 'er, I'm worried about you going alone. Lan' er, accompany the princess to the palace to see the emperor."”"Father, the Emperor has acknowledged his daughter-in-law as his goddaughter. I'll go too."”"Sister Qing 'er, thank you. Let's go see father together."”Zhang Mingguang nodded." Alright, Lan 'er. I'll leave them to you."”"It's Commander Father!" Yue Lan cupped her hands. Zhang Mingguang looked at his daughter.”Yue Lan led her children out of the gate.
Zhang Chong appeared on the stairs outside the Yan Luo Hall and saw Li Shimin and Qin Shubao talking to Asmodai inside the Yan Luo Hall. Zhang Chong came inside and shouted,""Royal Father, Uncle Qin, why are you here?”Li Shiming looked at Zhang Chong and said," My son, you're finally here. Take my father back. I have a lot of things to deal with."”"Yes, yes!" Qin Shubao hurriedly said. Quickly bring us back!" "Thank you for taking care of my father and General Qin." Zhang Chong smiled at King Qinguang.”"No, no," Asmodai said hurriedly. Li Shi Min was a monarch, and he was on equal footing with Little Wang. The general of Qin protected the country and served the people, which made Xiao Wang admire him very much.”"Thank you, King Qinguang, for thinking so highly of me." Qin Shubao smiled.”"Asmodai, what are you talking about? How can I be compared to you?" Li Shimin laughed.”Zhang Chong smiled." Father, Uncle Qin, this is your first time in Hell. Why don't you let King Qinguang show you around? You can familiarize yourself with Hell and talk to those old generals who died in battle."”"Brother Shimin, Brother Shubao, how about we befriend each other at eight hundred?" King Qinguang hurriedly said.”"I can't ask for more, I can't ask for more!"”Just like that, the three of them burned incense and blood wine to become sworn brothers. Zhang Chong said to Judge Wu,"Quickly bring the Imperial Family's Book of Life and Death over.”Judge Wu didn't dare to be negligent. He handed the Royal Family's Life and Death Book to Zhang Chong. Zhang Chong found Li Shimin and Qin Shubao's Life and Death Book and looked at it for a while before saying to King Qinguang,""My father still has a lot of things to do. I won't destroy his Life and Death Book. I'll give him a little more lifespan and let him finish his work in the human world.”
"I won't destroy General Shu Bao's Life and Death Book, just like Father's."”Asmodai did not dare to disobey and smiled apologetically.""As you wish, Hero Zhang." "Thank you." Zhang Chong looked at Asmodai and smiled.”After saying that, he added twenty years of lifespan to them. He handed the Life and Death Book to King Qinguang and said,""King Qinguang, if my father and Uncle Qin don't live long enough, I'll hold you responsible.”"Don't worry, Hero Zhang," Asmodai said hurriedly.”Zhang Chong smiled." Father, Uncle Qin, let King Qinguang show you around. I'll come to pick you up at midnight. King Qinguang, I still have something to do. If you neglect my father and Uncle Qin just now, I'll smash your head!"”"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare," said Asmodai hurriedly.”"My son, where do I go?" Li Shimin asked.”Zhang Chong explained the plan to them. Li Shimin was delighted and said with a smile,"Good plan, I'll cooperate with you." Asmodai had brought the two of them to Hell to play.
Qiuhua and the other two arrived at the palace. After a while, they arrived at the Dragon Virtue Palace and saw Li Shiming lying on the dragon couch as if he was asleep. The eunuchs and maids knelt on both sides. Qiuhua threw herself onto her father's dragon couch and cried loudly. Zhang Yuelan and Qing 'er knelt on the ground and cried non-stop. At this moment, someone shouted,"The Empress, the West Palace, the East Palace, the three majesties, and the princess elder brother have arrived!”They were dressed in white clothes and had white cloth on their heads. They came to the side of the dragon bed and knelt on the ground, crying. The Empress moved to Li Shimin's side and cried,"Emperor, what's wrong? Don't scare me, wake up!”"Father, why did you abandon your son and not care about me?" Li Zhizhong, the crown prince, cried.”In an instant, the cries in Dragon Virtue Hall shook the sky and filled the entire hall. The news of Li Shimin's death spread throughout Chang 'an, and the people slaughtered pigs and sheep to commemorate the Emperor's death. Li Keqian and his wife also went with the flow, offering offerings and praying. Zhang Chong walked on the streets of Chang 'an and saw every family praying to the heavens, crying for the sudden departure of Emperor Taizong. Zhang Chong came to the front of the palace gate to welcome the guards and said,"Greetings, Prince Consort." "No need for formalities," Zhang Chong waved his hand. After saying that, he strode towards the Dragon Hall. Not long after, he arrived at the Dragon Virtue Hall. When Zhang Chong saw that Qing 'er, Qiuhua, and Yue Lan were all there, he bowed towards Shen Zhenzhu and said,""Your son greets mother." Shen Zhen Zhu hurriedly said,"Imperial son, you don't have to be so polite."”Zhang Chong bowed to the others and said,""Everyone, don't be sad. My father is playing with King Qinguang in Hell. I will welcome my father and Uncle Qin back to the world at midnight. In order to lure the murderer, we should pretend to be more sad. Chen Lin, quickly send someone to prepare a good coffin. We will beat him at his own game and carry the coffin to Chang 'an. Only then can we lure the murderer out.”
"Understood!" Chen Lin cupped his hands. After saying that, Zhang Chong went down and said to Li Zhizhong,""Imperial brother, quickly go and summon all the officials in the palace who know martial arts. I have something to arrange for them.”Li Zhizhong nodded and left. Zhang Chong said,"Mother, in a while, you will arrange for the princesses and brothers in the palace to follow behind the spirit team. You and the other niangniang in the palace will not go.”Shen Zhen Zhu nodded. "Uncle Yuchi, bring 500 imperial guards and set up an ambush around Dragon Virtue Hall. If anything happens, fire three cannons."”"Don't worry, nephew." Yuchi Gong nodded.”After saying that, he went down and Zhang Chong arranged everything that needed to be arranged. At this time, Chen Lin asked someone to carry a good coffin. Zhang Chong looked at it for a while and saw Chen Lin put his hands together. Golden light shone and a fake corpse fell from the sky. It slowly fell into the pass. Zhang Chong slowly opened his hands and saw the coffin cover slowly seal. "We've succeeded. We'll set off immediately!" Zhang Chong said with a smile.”At this time, everyone who should have come had arrived. Everything was on guard. After another hour, Zhang Chong shouted,""Carry the coffin! The civil and military officials followed the spirit to see the monarch off. The elder brother and the princess followed the coffin forward. The five hundred soldiers were the last to support the spirit. Prince Li Zhizhong led the way in front of the coffin. The two brothers guarded the side.”As soon as he finished speaking, the 20 imperial guards slowly lifted the coffin. The band in front blew the spiritual horn, and the spiritual team slowly flew toward the Vermilion Bird Gate like a long dragon.
If you want to know what will happen next, let's talk about it in the next chapter.
