Chapter 16: King Jing's Dream
A ray of sunlight just shot out from the mountains in the distance, shining on a splendid hall, the four words "Zhengtonghe" on the door plaque of the hall instantly shined, and the faces of the guards who stood tall and tall were reflected in gold, only to hear the voice of "I wish my lord a long life" in the hall.
In the main hall, above the main hall, Zhao Lingyun sat on the dragon chair, and the subordinates below all bowed respectfully and saluted, and the white-haired old man at the end of the military general team was in clear spirits, wearing a silver-white armor, sitting straight on a chair, and the generals behind him were wearing various armors, looking at the figure of the old man with awe.
Zhao Lingwu, who was dressed in a big purple python robe, looked around the team of military generals, but he didn't see Qin Kongyu and Yue Qianming, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a trace of ruthlessness, thinking that Zhao Lingyun I will definitely cut off your two arms first this time, and see how long you can be proud.
Although Zhao Lingyun didn't rest well all night, his spirit was also good, while listening to the people below reporting some political affairs, he thought that Qianming and Kongyu should have already set off, hoping that everything would go well. Zhao Lingwu looked at Zhao Lingyun's unfazed appearance, and he also admired Zhao Lingyun's cultivation in the city mansion, and the situation of the two countries surrounding Zhao that he planned still couldn't make Zhao Lingyun panic in the slightest, and he couldn't help but think about what it would be like if he sat in that seat. When Zhao Lingwu received the news last night that the Eastern Barbarian Clan had also launched an invasion of the Eastern Territory, he was also worried for a while, but then he relaxed his mentality, feeling that this was God helping him, and he would definitely be able to succeed this time.
Zhao Lingwu is ready to suppress Zhao Lingyun's prestige on the main hall today, and make some preparations for future planning, he finally came to this point after ten years of planning, instigating the Xia Geng clan and the Jinhai clan to besiege Zhao Xin's country, when the two armies break through the border line, the second line of defense that he has been planning for many years will play a role, and he exchanged his fief to a distant place over there, for today! After he stabilizes the battle situation, he will be the one who can turn the tide, and then let his own people in the court first attack Zhao Lingwu to create an opportunity for himself to take the position. And then give some benefits to those two countries, quell the war, force Zhao Lingyun to abdicate, he has endured that pair of brothers and sisters for so many years, and he can finally take revenge, Zhao Lingwu thought about this, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile a little. I don't know what to say about this man's intelligence, how can he not understand the consequences of luring a wolf into the house, how can it be so simple, and will the agreement he secretly conspired with the envoys of the two countries still be valid at that time? Do you not think at all about the lives of the soldiers living on the border? When you are really blinded by hatred and desire, you are so crazy that you can no longer care about anything else?
When Zhao Lingyun listened to the reports of those courtiers, he made replies one by one, and only then did he talk about the military situation of the two critical border passes yesterday, when Zhao Lingyun finished speaking, the white-haired old man sitting on the chair, Huo Ran got up, and asked Zhao Lingyun for his life: "Your Majesty, the old minister will rush back to the west now, strengthen the border defense, and prevent the Mengyuan clan of Daying Prefecture from taking advantage of the chaos." β
Zhao Lingyun looked at Xin Zheng, who was already in his two hundreds, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he didn't want him to run around at such an age, but now the situation is critical, only with Xin Zheng's prestige and talent, he can ensure the safety of the western border. I had no choice but to speak: "Xin Zheng Shen General, I also have this intention, but you don't have to be in a hurry on the road, at this moment it is best for you to take care of your body." β
Xin Zheng thanked Zhao Lingyun for his concern in a loud voice, but he couldn't sit still anymore. As the thousand-year-old gate valve of the Zhao Xin family, the Xin family has the highest reputation among all the major clans in the Zhao Xin family, but it has never participated in the struggle for the political throne, and has been a lonely minister for thousands of years. Although Xin Zheng is old, he is still a resolute character, and he resigned to Zhao Lingyun directly in the palace, and after leaving the palace, he went straight to the west gate of the imperial capital and led his guards to the west.
Until after sending Xin Zheng away, Zhao Lingyun had already noticed Zhao Lingwu, who was agitating and connecting those close subordinates and preparing to attack him in public, couldn't help but laugh at his eldest brother, who had been cultivating kung fu for so many years. How could Zhao Lingyun give him such an opportunity to attack himself in public, and directly announced his retirement from the dynasty and let everyone settle down, but he kept Liu Yuqing and Zhao Lingwu, the head of the household.
In the martial arts field of the Shenjiang Mansion in Zhenbei, Jiang Chen, who got up in the fourth watch, followed the rules set by Yue Qianming for himself, first ran around the martial arts field five times, and then began to sit and meditate, at first he felt bored, and it took nearly a stick of incense to calm down, feel the flow of air, hear the rustle of the breeze blowing through the leaves, the slight sound of the dead leaves falling to the ground, and feel the movement of everything between heaven and earth, Jiang Chen was no longer bored, and slowly sank into such an environment, without any distractions in his heart, completely emptying his mind and accepting the embrace of natureγ
This state lasted for a long time, and Jiang Chen's faint mind suddenly sensed that the world around him suddenly became colorful, shining like fireflies into the night, and in his perception of the world were those dancing colorful light particles. Jiang Chen didn't know what these light particles were, looking at those light particles surrounding him, as if they were about to drill into his body, Jiang Chen, who was frightened, woke up from his ethereal state in an instant, and was startled again when he opened his eyes. Lu Xiangning squatted in front of him regardless of the image of his elders, staring at him in surprise, and was also startled when he saw Jiang Chen, who suddenly opened his eyes.
Lu Xiang calmed down, stood up, handed a booklet in the style of a book in his hand to Jiang Chen, and said with a little worry: "This is what your uncle Yue asked to give you, he had already left during the third watch, saying that he was going to the north, as short as a few months, and if it was long, he would not know the return date, and he told you to cultivate hard, and he will check your homework when he comes back." After finishing speaking, he walked out of the martial arts field, thinking as he walked and thought that he had just sensed that the speed of the aura around Jiang Chen's body seemed to change slightly, but it was only a flash, could it be that he was wrong, people who don't know the aura can't even perceive the aura, how can they make the aura change the speed, how can they not figure it out, Lu Xiangning rubbed his eyebrows, and put this matter aside, she is such a character, don't embarrass herself if she can't figure it out, if no one mentions it after a while, she will forget it very thoroughly.
Jiang Chen stood up and sent Lu Xiang out of the martial arts field, only then picked up the book and looked, the cover of the book was blue, and there were no words written on the cover, after Jiang Chen opened the book, the content of the book had words and pictures, most of these words Jiang Chen also knew, combined with the pictures, but he already understood, this is the teacher's own writing of martial arts cultivation experience, the first page wrote some training methods in the early stage of the martial arts cultivation realm, that is, the ones that taught him yesterday, as well as calligraphy and painting some fighting skills, Jiang Chen roughly flipped it, but this book only wrote some attention to the realization of the refining realm, and the future realm was not introduced, after Jiang Chen closed the booklet, began to play nine times "Five Elephant Refining Body", more relaxed and skilled, the sound of the tiger roar became louder and louder, Jiang Chen was full of joy, after stretching his muscles and bones, he began to train in the morning, and set the training volume of five groups, after one group was completed, he felt a lot easier than yesterday, and tried to adjust the gravity bracelet up a layer, and was instantly pressed to his knees, and tried to stand up for a while, feeling that the bones in his whole body were going to be crushed, and his chest was suffocated. It was difficult to move his right hand to adjust the gravity back to one layer, and it was back to normal, and it was only tomorrow that the gravity of each layer of the gravity space created by the gravity bracelet was not as simple as one plus one, Jiang Chen didn't dare to play with the gravity bracelet anymore, and completed the rest of the training in a proper manner, until noon he had overcompleted two sets, and then he felt his limit, and when he came to the dining room, he saw that his mother was also there, chatting with Lu Xiangning, and seeing Jiang Chen walking in sweating, Zhao Qin'er got up and picked up Jiang Chen first, and found that Jiang Chen was tanned a lot, and complained to Lu Xiangning about Yue Qianming jokingly, so I took Jiang Chen to wash up. After lunch, Lu Xiangning was going to arrange a room for Zhao Qin'er to take a lunch break, but Zhao Qin'er refused with a smile and said, "Just be with Jiang Chen, don't be so troublesome." β
Then the three of them came to the small courtyard where Jiang Chen lived, Lu Xiangning sat for a while and left, leaving Zhao Qin'er's mother and son to talk, Zhao Qin'er originally had something to say to Jiang Chen, looking at Jiang Chen, who had fallen asleep holding himself for some time, and looked at his son with pity, this child seemed to be born without knowing what it meant to give up, and when he first saw him in the dining room, he was only excited, but there were no grievances and complaints.
After Zhao Qin'er gently put Jiang Chen on the bed, she gathered a ball of aura, gently helping Jiang Chen soothe her muscles, not knowing the tiredness, Jiang Chen made a sound comfortably in a deep sleep. Until the end of the day, Jiang Chen woke up naturally and saw his mother still sitting in front of the bed, Zhao Qin'er saw Jiang Chen wake up, and after a few words of advice to Jiang Chen, he said that he was going back to the palace and would take him back tomorrow.
Jiang Chen thought that his mother didn't want him to practice anymore, so he naturally didn't want to follow his mother back, Zhao Qin'er patted Jiang Chen's little head and said, "Your Uncle Yue has gone to the north, I don't know when the war will end." So I've asked someone to install a full set of body refining equipment for you in the open space behind the main hall of Fengluo Garden, and it will be completed tomorrow. You don't need to train tomorrow, you can go to school in the spirit academy with Wu Jing in the morning, and go home directly after school. He gently pinched Jiang Chen's little arm and said, "Stinky boy, are you so unwilling to stay with me?"
Jiang Chen looked at his mother's resentful expression, and said with a grin: "Of course not, then I'll talk to Xue'er tonight, and now I'll go to training first." Got up and ran to the martial arts field, Zhao Qin'er got up to talk to Lu Xiangning, and the two talked about the gossip of Yue Qianming and the others when they were young, and Zhao Qin'er got up and went back to the palace.
Jiang Chen warmed up on the martial arts field first, and started this afternoon's training, which didn't end until sunset, and soaked it again, which looked disgusting, but it was a great benefit for him now, and at dinner he told Yue Wujing that he was going back to the palace tomorrow, of course Yue Wujing didn't want him to go back, he finally had a playmate, he was going to be bored again, Jiang Chen looked at Yue Wujing, who was angry with him, and didn't know what to do. Lu Xiangning, who was next to her, watched her daughter playing with her temper, and after a while of persuasion, she said that Jiang Chen would still go to school in the spiritual courtyard every morning in the future, and she could also see her in the spiritual courtyard, and when she was resting in the future, Jiang Chen could still come to play at home, so that Yue Wujing would be happy again. After eating, Yue Wujing pulled Jiang Chen out of the mansion directly this time, went to the next door to the Wei Chi Mansion, and went to play with Yu Chi De.
