Chapter 68 Straight to the Clouds and Into the Early Dynasty

The day after the spirit hunt ended, the story of Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang spread like heroic deeds.

As the city lord, Yang Zhen was the first person in Longgang to know about this. He asked Xiao Liu to find Xia Jinghong, and after telling him, Xia Jinghong behaved extremely calmly, somewhat beyond Yang Zhen's expectations.

"There is the trouble of the city lord. ”

All of this was expected by Xia Jinghong, Xia Xiao must have a lot of things to do when he went to Rongcheng, and this is nothing. And if things can get around, it means it's okay.

At this time, it was noon, and Xia Jinghong invited:

"My wife and son made pastries and stewed chicken soup, let's try it together?"

Yang Zhen smiled, recalling the pastries sent by Xia Jinghong last time, and it did have some aftertaste.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. ”

"For the sake of the people, adults work hard day and night, Xia admires it, and there is no need to be so polite. ”

As soon as he heard the word adult, Yang Zhen became serious, he couldn't bear such a big hat.

"General Xia, I said last time that we are all loyal and dutiful people for the dynasty, if you don't dislike it, just call me brother. ”

Yang Zhen has always disliked the set of rivers and lakes, the official is the official, the people are the people, the people support the officials, and the officials do things for the people. But Xia Jinghong's family is really wronged, iron-blooded, and worthy of his exception. Xia Jinghong is not polite, the general style in his bones, and the heroic spirit make him say good.

The two of them walked together towards the mass grave. Along the way, Yang Zhen asked some questions about how to govern the army, and Xia Jinghong answered them one by one.

In the evening, Xia Xiao's affairs spread farther, and the porter and merchants, and the family letters and chatters all made it quickly go eastward to the imperial capital.

The Great Xia Dynasty was not the largest country in the Great Wilderness World, but this imperial capital called Shen Yan perfectly illustrates what it means to be magnificent. It is not so much like the imperial capital, it is better to say that it is the border of Xiongguan, because it is solid, there is no appearance of a romantic and noble land, but it is magnificent and solemn, and the thick vermilion wall guards the dignity of the dynasty, showing the cautious consciousness of the people of Daxia. If one day the Great Summer is defeated, even if it is embattled, it can fight against the water and never die.

The young man who was responsible for collecting Xia Xiao's intelligence was on the city wall west of the imperial capital, with his hands facing the sky, and the carrier pigeon was coming.

In this imposing imperial city, there is an agency dedicated to collecting information, but the matter of Xia Xiao is personally responsible for the saint, and no one else is allowed to interfere.

The man took off the letter on the pigeon's leg, raised his arm, and the carrier pigeon flew through the sky, taking the whole momentum into his eyes. The men disappeared from the city walls and rode their horses through the flow of people towards the palace.

The palace gate is spacious and macroscopic, and only military generals and ministers can enter directly, and people with simple clothes like men can only walk through the extremely inconspicuous side door. But he had a holy token at his waist, and he crossed the moat directly and entered the gate, without turning the corner, and his view was not obscured by the high walls and cornices he usually saw.

When they arrived, the man abandoned his horse. After the little eunuch took him by the hand, the man had already walked towards the imperial study in the blink of an eye.

In addition to dealing with state affairs every day, the Holy One spends the most time in the imperial study. No one is disturbed here, and no matter what you do, you have the guise of practicing calligraphy and self-cultivation. At this time, the man broke in, causing a panic among the eunuch guards at the door, so bold, if Long Yan was furious, wouldn't he lose his life?

The eunuch desperately pulled the man down, and the guards drew their swords and were about to use force. But the saint just said a simple sentence to resolve the men's crisis.

"Stand down. ”

It is said that the companion is like a tiger, and after serving all the year round, the guards and eunuchs know how to observe words and feelings, and know that this is said to them, so they immediately retreat.

The man who stepped into the imperial study had a face of rivers and lakes, and he had a chivalrous look. The eyes under the sword eyebrows looked at the saint in front of him, and he did not bow down, but just saluted.

See Holy Lord. ”

In front of the table, the fair grinds the inkstone. The Holy Lord stepped forward, said a word of absence, and then asked:

"Where's the news?"

The man must have something to do when he came here at this time, and being so anxious made the saint even more curious about Xia Xiao's movements.

The saint of the Great Xia Dynasty was a man in his early twenties, and his face was full of saintly majesty. Eagles born and raised in ivory towers fly slower than others, but a pair of discerning eyes have a bright eye, which shows that they are extremely intelligent.

The man presented two small bamboo tubes with both hands, and the saint couldn't wait to open them, and after reading them, he laughed a few times.

"Fei Lian, with you, the news came back so quickly, and it has caught up with the Flying Bird Pavilion that has received news from all over the world. ”

Fei Lian was the man's name, and he listened to it with a respectful attitude.

"What the Holy God has explained, Fei Lian must do his best. ”

"You are a Jianghu person, not a courtier of the dynasty, so you don't need to be so polite. ”

This sentence has already been said by the saint, but Fei Lian is also a citizen of the Great Xia Dynasty, how can he be disrespectful to the Son of Heaven?

"There are still two months to go to the local competition, and until then, I have to pay more attention to it. ”

"There are people I know in the north and south of the river, and they will definitely serve the saints!"

"Good work. ”

The saint's hard work flattered Fei Lian, but his face was cold and said:

If nothing else, Fei Lian retreated first. ”

"Watch your whereabouts and don't be seen by others!"

"Holy Lord, rest assured. ”

Fei Lian walked out of the door, lifted the corners of his mouth, and disappeared immediately. Even if someone has seen him, they don't know who he is, only that there is a capable person who has disappeared around the saint.

The door of the imperial study was closed again, and the elderly father-in-law was yin and yang, but he could be loyal:

"The saint is really wise, recruiting such an expert, the old people's house will not dare to underestimate you again. ”

Sitting back at the table, the saint's eyes were like ink, and he was dark enough to hate. Because of his lack of experience, the National Senate always wanted to empty his power and take over this Great Xia. But he is dignified, and it is his duty to govern Great Xia well, and no one can replace him, let alone drive him!

"The identity of Xia Xiao's person who came from afar attracted the attention of the entire National Senate, and he was exiled to the border. Now that he is a disciple of the Pope of the Church, there will definitely be action on the side of the Senate. ”

"Saint, the old slave said before that the old courtyard of this country saw the wind and made the rudder, among which the dragon fish was mixed, and I don't know which demon wind it is. You strike first, even if Xia Xiao's resistance does not return, you have also expressed your intentions. And not pursuing him for resisting the decree also shows his magnanimity. Since Xia Xiao is a talent, he will naturally understand that he will not communicate with the National Senior Home, let alone fight against you. If he doesn't understand, this person doesn't want it, and he won't be able to make a big deal. ”

My father-in-law has been with the dragon all his life, and he has some dragon energy, and he has a broad vision, and he is the first to analyze it.

"With Grandpa Mu by my side, I can sit firmly on this dragon chair. ”

Father-in-law Mu smiled, his old face was like a chrysanthemum, and he said sincerely:

"It is my honor for the old slave to assist three generations of kings. ”

"Then what do you think the Zhu family should do?"

The saint suddenly mentioned the Zhu family, and the previous letter must have something to do with the Zhu family, presumably they made things difficult for Xia Xiao again.

The old slave felt that the Zhu family could not handle it for the time being. ”

"As the general of Sanpin Yunlu, the Zhu family has indeed made great contributions, but with this official product, they don't dare to be so presumptuous, to buy others with great fanfare, and attack Xia Xiao!"

"What does the Holy One mean?"

In the eyes of Father-in-law Mu, the saint in his early twenties already looked like his father and grandfather. Those discerning eyes seem to be able to find out everything.

"There must be people from the House of Elders standing behind him, those old guys who seem to be thinking about the country, but they are actually trying to overthrow me. Since Xia Xiao can't become their pawn, he will be eliminated. ”

Father-in-law Mu felt justified, it was the Guolao Yuan who drove the Xia family out of the imperial capital in the first place. With Xia Xiao's current character, since he dares to resist the order, he will definitely not have any communication with them again. In this way, Xia Xiao is more likely to be on their side, after all, if you want to come back openly, you still need the decree of the Holy Lord.

"So...... The Valley of All Souls is a great opportunity!"

"Yes, we have to find someone to help Xia Xiao. ”

Mu Gonggong asked tentatively:

"The Su family?"

"Su Huan is the first choice, but she alone is definitely not enough. ”

"Later, the old man will go to choose the juniors who are loyal to the dynasty. ”

"It's hard work!"

Pick up the pen and write your name on the paper - Yi Yi!

Now the National Council of the Elders has all kinds of opinions about him, and he is not negligent, and they can't find fault with him at all. They said that he was poor in writing and lacked the spirit of a king, so he practiced calligraphy so hard that they were speechless. This is not the first time that the people in the National Elders' House have done this, they used to say that they read little and had no splendor in their stomachs, and the latter read poetry and books in groups. It was during that time that Xia Xiao was neglected.

Seeing the words written by Ji Yi, Mu Gonggong is quite satisfied, but he is not talented, but he is willing to work hard, and he will definitely be a generation of Ming Jun in the future.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I saw a eunuch reporting news. After hearing this, Grandpa Mu returned to the imperial study.

"Holy Lord, Zhu Heng asks to see you. ”

Ji Yi didn't stop writing, but his eyes moved slightly, and said:

"Tell him to talk about it tomorrow morning!"

"Yes......"

Father-in-law Mu stepped back and was very satisfied with the sentence given by Ji Yi. He is the emperor and has the right to refuse, and talking about it in the early dynasty can remind the ill-intentioned old men in the House of the Elders that the real emperor is still him, don't commit it openly, otherwise there will be no good end!

Father-in-law Mu is old, and his body is slightly rickety, which is in stark contrast to Zhu Heng, who is five big and three thick. After he finished conveying the meaning of Ji Yi, Zhu Heng's face changed.

"Father-in-law Mu, can you tell me again, I want to transfer out of the imperial capital and go to the eastern coastal area to help the victims. ”

Although there is a famine in the east, what can you do? The scheming Father-in-law Mu smiled secretly, but his face was embarrassed.

"I'm just a minion, and the Holy One is copying the Taiping Sutra, so I can't bother me when I'm calm. ”

Grandpa Mu's eyes were full of drama between his eyebrows, it seemed that the saint was losing his temper, and it was useless for you to let me go.

Seeing this, Zhu Heng saluted and left without reluctance. This time, Zhu Da's matter failed, he will never leave Kyoto again, and he will be finished when Xia Xiao comes back! No matter what his reason is, Xia Xiao's identity is there!

When Xia Xiao started cultivating, Zhu Heng didn't know that his master was the Pope, otherwise it wouldn't be like this.

With a punch on the Zhu wall, Zhu Heng could only go to the people of the National Elder's House!
