Bronze axes and spears, refracting cold light.

The carriage drove all the way into the palace, and Cheng Daxin didn't see any familiar faces of Huang Yuwei, all of them were the figures of Ruo Ao Liubu.

The carriage waited outside the Nagisa Palace Square.

He lifted the curtain and looked at the deep palace.

The cold wind was biting, blowing in the face, as if the day of the Great Chu had finally strode from autumn to winter.

After sparing no expense, he finally mastered sporadic and reliable information to determine the palace change that took place that night, but based on these news alone, he was only in his thirties, and he couldn't predict the current situation in Chu State, how dangerous it was?

Cheng Daxin groaned and thought twice.

He was originally a civil official, and after the Ruoao Yuejiao Rebellion, even though he picked up a sword and decided to fight, he did not experience too many struggles like Cheng Dechen in his life.

There is no sword in hand.

After all, he will only be a piece of fish that will fall into the chopping block of others and be slaughtered.

But at this moment, he still made up his mind.

I just don't know, for this decision, what will greet him?

It's about a "death" word.

This is the worst-case scenario.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Cheng Daxin's face, and he suddenly felt that the cold wind blowing was a bit fake, obviously he should be cold all over his body, but his palms actually felt a trace of hot flashes.

Looking at the high platform in front of him, the Golden Palace in the clouds, and the colleagues who were also waiting in the car on the left and right, after a long silence, he suddenly spoke: "What do you think?"

There were only two people in the carriage at this time.

The object of this questioning does not think secondly.

Su pursed his lips and looked at the dim car, the pale young Zuo Yin, and arched his hand: "The situation is unfavorable to us, I hope you will think twice!"

For a moment.

Cheng Daxin thought of Cheng Fei, and also thought of his younger brother, those brothers and sisters, and his wife, who was worried about his mother and dead father every day, and he suddenly wanted to sit in the same room with them again and talk......

Even if it's just Cheng Jia's reproach, "Big brother, this is too dangerous...... or Cheng Fei's "Daddy, Daddy......", his wife's uneasy and concerned eyes......

It's also good......

He didn't feel any regrets.

"Even you think so, I'm afraid everyone thinks so. Cheng Daxin woke up from his distraction, looked at Su Cong and said, "So this time I have to try with my life." ”

Su frowned from his eyebrows, paused for a moment, and said, "My lord, he even dared to make a move against Elder Li, ...... you do this?"

Cheng Daxin's eyes narrowed slightly.

There was a gleam in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he just said: "In my eyes, in the eyes of Jia Di, he has always been a gentleman who is full of words, and he is by no means as ambitious as Yue Jiao!"

"It's not the same time anymore......"

Su never knew what happened to Ruo Ao Ziyan in the past, but in his opinion, Ruo Ao Ziyan's behavior at this time to destroy all enemies who might threaten and oppose Ruo Ao was very reasonable.

What's more, he never believed that any loyal servant of the Ao clan had such monstrous power.

How can you be willing to live under one person for a long time?

"We should not take the liberty of confronting her in the court, but we should try our best to determine the safety of the queen, and then unite all forces to rescue the queen, otherwise the queen will become a hostage, and we will be more passive. ”

Reason allowed Su Cong to make a more secure suggestion.

"The queen can't be contacted, there are too few palace people who are willing to take the risk of providing tips, and the guards around me have all been imprisoned...... Maybe one doesn't have ......"

Cheng Daxin looked up at the vast fog, and his eyes were blank.

Su Cong looked at him: "So my lord, now we should preserve our strength!"

"I'm afraid I won't have a chance. ”

Cheng Daxin's answer was extremely heavy, and he handed over a piece of brocade cloth: "This is the news I just received......

The two people in the car suddenly fell silent.

They knew to each other that if it was really as the messenger said, the ghost uncle who represented the god of death was already approaching the entire Cheng clan, but Cheng Daxin was unwilling to flee like Yuejiao did last time, and even prepared a suicidal confrontation.

In the canal below the carriage, there was flowing water silently, and then it flowed down the ditch with a soft sound, breaking the silence in the carriage.

"Now I can only choose a dignified death or a cowardly death!"

Cheng Daxin said.

Su Cong was speechless.

He knew that Cheng Daxin's words were absolutely true, and with that person's means, even if their cowards chose to escape, they might not be lucky enough to escape from the ascension again.

He said in a heavy voice: "So you and Chen Huang and they escaped, and at the same time sent a letter to the second brother and General Ouyang, and I stayed to delay a moment or two." ”

Cheng Daxin insisted.

"Grown-......"

After struggling in his heart for a long time, seeing Cheng Daxin getting out of the carriage and walking towards Miyagi alone, Su Cong knelt on his knees with a puff, and said with tears in his voice: "Su Cong will definitely help the sons rescue the king." ”

"Let's go!"

"Da Da Da!"

The sound of horses' hooves sounded behind him, and a carriage galloped away.

The bell rang outside.

Cheng Daxin stepped up the steps of the Zhu Palace, accompanied by the rising sun, step by step, with the reluctance of his relatives and the worry of Da Chu, until death, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth......

The ministers rushed in, and he was also mixed in with the team.

I saw that on the jade steps in the hall, the bead curtain half covered a person, not revealing his face, but like a cold mist, enveloping the hall, everyone trembled and crawled on the ground.

Salute him.

Because he is the most powerful and powerful man in Da Chu.

"From now on, the special promotion of the left disciple to Ling Yin, given a seat on the Golden Palace, when the regent of the dynasty supervises the country, in charge of all important military and political affairs at home and abroad, personnel appointments, all of them have important matters, all submitted to the horse resolution!"

"Chin this!"

After Zhao Changshi's will was promulgated, the audience was dumbfounded.

Countless thoughts crossed my mind...... What does it mean to be the regent and overseer of the kingdom on the top of the golden palace?...... Is the queen really sick? or has she died violently?......

Everything seemed to confirm their suspicions.

The ministers trembled their muscles even more, prostrate on the ground, and did not dare to look at Ruo Ao Ziyan, who stepped forward to receive the order, but just knelt on the ground and shouted: "Please recuperate with peace of mind, we will do our best to assist Ling Yin in handling the government and restoring order in the country!"

It is in the nature to surrender to the strong.

Those who do not have the ability to surrender will be called flattery.

Not everyone is qualified to kneel in this hall, kneel to the supreme of Da Chu, even if the man sitting on top is really a murderer and usurp the throne, it just shows that he already has the strength to override the king.

So who said that usurpation of power is shameful?

I don't understand Game of Thrones though.

If Ao Ziyan did not feel the slightest bit uneasy, sitting on the top, from his eyes, the officials were more and more trembling, kneeling more sincerely, bowing their heads, not daring to raise their heads, not daring to have objections, just like the bronze ritual vessels in this hall, but the hall is decorated.

With a gesture, with a light breeze of confidence and contempt, he took the edict written by his own hand.

shouted: "Zhao De?"

"Slave here!"

"Discussion!"

From beginning to end, no one refuted, and Zhao Changshi lamented in his heart when he saw this: If the Ao clan is in power, my Dachu will no longer have loyal ministers and good generals, so he can only read according to the book: "There is a book, but there is no book to retreat!"

Cheng Daxin frowned and knelt on the ground.

The big hand clenched the sleeve in the middle of the song, tight and loose, loose and tight, behind Shen Wuxing and Ruo Ao Ziyong, frequently signaled to him and shook their heads, patient.

Got up in his clothes and walked towards Ruo Ao Ziyan's lower head, the closer he got to it, the clearer the figure on the throne became, and the more nervous Cheng Daxin's mood became.

Since the first battle of Ao Yuejiao, he has seen many big battles, and he has also received important figures at home and abroad with Cheng Dechen before...... But as a country Zuo Yin, he doesn't know why, he always feels that in front of this Ruo Ao nephew, who is ten years younger than himself, there is always a particularly strong sense of oppression.

Is it the oppression of power, or the footsteps of death?

Or is it Ao Ziyan himself?

Facing this son and nephew who has been friends since childhood, Cheng Daxin can't tell the difference, but he can be sure that in his lifetime, only today he is more and more sure of what he wants to do in this life.

The first stepped forward and said, "The queen is seriously ill, and she has a big heart, so I implore you to visit the palace on behalf of the ministers." ”

"The queen is still ill and should not be a guest. ”

Zhao Changshou immediately spoke up.

Cheng Daxin firmly lifted his official robe, knelt down and said: "Now everyone in the city is vying to praise the queen, the queen is seriously ill and died, and rumors are everywhere. If Daxin can't see the queen today, I am afraid it will be difficult to feel at ease! Therefore, no matter how seriously ill the queen is, please ask Ling Yin to invite the queen to come out to see him, dispel the rumors, and calm people's hearts. ”

Cheng Da is neither humble nor arrogant, and his words are threatening.

Otherwise, the words of the fist will be in the ears, and the subordinates will be terrified, which will affect the reputation of Ling Yin and his family. ”

may be because Cheng Daxin's image of honesty and honesty is too deep, so it is really doubtful and admirable that he can have the courage and determination to confront Ruo Ao Ziyan head-on and provoke a war between the Cheng clan and the Ruo Ao clan.

If this war was provoked by Cheng Jia first, they could still believe that they had a few chances of winning.

Cheng Da heart to the top of Ao Ziyan.

It's like hitting a stone with an egg.

Pathetic, alas!

"Really?......"

Ruo Ziyan slowly turned the jade wrench on his thumb, lowered his head and smiled, and his voice raised slightly: "If you can't see her, it will affect my family......"

"Then you should check it out. ”

The voice echoed clearly above the hall, and in everyone's ears, they could clearly hear the trace of laughter in the voice, which made Li Lao tremble.

After recuperating for a few days, his right arm suddenly became in severe pain.

He quietly looked left and right, looked around, and wanted to find Pan Chong's figure, at this time, only Pan Chong could stop one or two, but after looking around, he didn't find his figure.

So he asked in a low voice.

"What about the Taishi?"

Zhao Hou coughed lightly, bowed his head to his side and said: "Taishi's leg disease has recurred in the past few days, and he handed over the fold of leave early in the morning, and it is said that Yin Yi is approved in the morning, I am afraid that he will not enter the court or the palace during this time." ”

"What does he mean by that?!"

Seeing that the situation is not right, let it go?

Li Lao showed a slightly surprised expression: "The old man's arm is injured like this, and he is still sick to the court, and he, a few days ago, he just said that he has a leg that is not good at walking, and he will not be able to walk in a few days?"

Li Lao was angry in his heart.

is not only for Ruo Ao Ziyan, but also for Pan Chong, if he was present that day, how could Ruo Ao Ziyan break one of his arms?

Zhao Hou cast a look at Li Lao that you understand: Taishi, haven't you always been like this and don't ask about the government?

Li Lao nodded helplessly, looked at Cheng Daxin with tears in his eyes, and thought of his hard-working daughter and grandson Cheng Fei for a while...... Today, his promising son-in-law is afraid that he will not be able to leave this Chu Palace, but Cheng Dechen died early, and he has no time to take care of himself......

Come to think of it.

Li Lao was heartbroken.

But he could only close his eyes and bury his head in the ground.

After a long time, in the hall, there was a "bang", and the people in silence were all startled, but it turned out that it was Ruo Ao Ziyan who was sitting on the top and struck the bronze throne with his palm.

There was a loud "bang, bang, bang!" sound.

Everyone trembled with the voice, not knowing what he was going to do, only to hear him ask lazily: "Is it only Cheng Zuoyin who wants to go and see?"

"Is there no one?"

There was a dead silence in the field, and it was difficult for people to breathe, even if the weather was cold, there were gradually big beads of sweat rolling down on their foreheads, and for a long time, Zhao Changshi replied with difficulty: "No one." ”

"Good!"

Ruo Ao Ziyan said lightly: "Then Zhao Changshi, you will send Cheng Zuo Yin a ride!"

"No!"

A hint of hopelessness overflowed from Zhao De's pale lips.

There was a sound, and the Zhu Gate slowly opened.

With a "squeak" sound, the elite armor outside the hall was revealed, and Cheng Daxin no longer bent down humbly, but lifted his robe, slowly stood up straight, his back was as pine and straight, and he looked at Ruo Ao Ziyan and thanked him deeply.

"Thank you Ling Yin!"

"Then Daxin will go to the queen on behalf of your colleagues!" turned and saluted the crowd.

"Cheng Zuoyin, I'll go with you......"

Relying on his grandfather is Pan Chong, if Ao Ziyan didn't dare to move him easily, Shen Wuxing wanted to get up and follow, but was pressed by Cheng Daxin's shoulder: "No, Lord Xianyin is waiting for me here, Daxin will go back when he goes!"

Ruo Ao Ziyan looked at Cheng Daxin with a smile and turned around through the half-covered bead curtain, and suddenly remembered another person, who was also smiling like this.

Obviously, every time he loses decently, that guy can still laugh.

They are really brothers......

"Heh......"

Ruo Ao Ziyan sneered.

In his memory, Cheng Jia's smile clearly appeared in front of him, obviously he was forced into a corner every time, and he had no power to fight back, but he still smiled and said: "Next time, I will definitely win it back!"

"It's up to you, it's better to admit defeat as soon as possible!"

He pressed Cheng Jia's shoulder and raised his eyebrows in disdain.

Cheng Jia smiled and looked back: "You say this, I know you just want me to admit defeat." ”

"But I just want to win you once!"

It's a pity that Cheng Jia hasn't won back once, even if he releases water, Cheng Jia will deliberately lose to him, and winning like this really makes him unhappy.

Then one year, they did birthday together.

At the birthday banquet, he played with the Fengsheng sword, looked at Cheng Jia who was drinking on the side, curled his lips and said, "Do you want to go back?"

Cheng Jia stared at the sword in his hand.

I stared at it for a long time, but I didn't speak.

He smiled disdainfully and said, "Look at you, you are obviously very honest in your body, but your mouth says no." I obviously want to rebel against me, but I pretend to be so obedient...... As long as you ask for it today, as your friend and brother, I will definitely return this sword to you as a birthday gift!"

At that time, Cheng Jia was silent for a long time.

This kind of silence makes him hate for no reason.

They are both proud sons of heaven, but he is like having the blood of inferior people in his body, always groveling to others, kowtowing and submitting, and even sympathizing with those inferior commoners and being with them.

In the end, he angrily said, "Don't be?!"

"Then don't even think about going back from me in the future, I gave you the opportunity, but you don't cherish it!"

Cheng Jia raised his glass and smiled to reassure: "Don't you be angry...... It's not that I don't want it, it's just that I'm past the age when I want it. If you had said this to me a few years earlier, I would have spoken. ”

He didn't like it.

For Cheng Jia, he always has a feeling that he can't guess, and this feeling makes him very unhappy.

"And what do you want now?"

"What I want now, will you give it to me?"

“……”

"Whew...... Whew......"

The sudden amplified breathing, with the heavy footsteps of Cheng Daxin walking outward, was like the ups and downs of a river, the waves were rolling, affecting the whole audience, everyone had a little sadness on their faces, and even secretly wiped their tears, but no one dared to speak out and stop him.

"Cheng Zuo Yin ......"

Shen Wuxing's eyes were unconsciously red.

Suddenly got up and shouted, "Don't! Don't go——"

Cheng Daxin turned around and smiled, his slender hand closed again, and he turned around and walked out of the hall, and the bronze axe and spear held high in the hands of the soldiers who had been waiting outside the hall for a long time fell with a bang.

"Poof".

The sharp bronze axe spear slashed from head to toe, and the sharp sword stabbed out, breaking through the flesh and iron bones, and hideous blood marks fell on the white face like mutton fat, and dark dark spots were swamped on the cyan Zuo Yin court clothes.

The man was forked on the bronze halberd, and with a light throw, his body flew out like a paper kite.

From the eighty-one steps of the Zhu Palace, the Golden Palace was planted, and it fell between the vast fog, breaking a huge crack, allowing the morning glow to penetrate the fog and shoot into the dark hall.

"Boom".

Like thunder, it struck Shen Wudaunt's heart.

Shen Wudaunt staggered forward but was stopped by the soldier and yelled, "What are you doing here?!——"

"Do you kill people in the morning?"

"Is there any law to speak of?"

Ruo Ao Ziyan looked at this scene coldly, watching his uncle die from the battle axe and fall into the Golden Palace, his expression did not change in the slightest, but the eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate the sky looked down, as if chasing the figure who fell in mid-air.

"Cheng Zuo Yin is rebelling!"

"Kill the Rebel ——"

There was a shout mixed with a cry of pain from outside the hall, echoing throughout the golden hall, tearing at the fragile nerves of the ministers, and the golden light shone on their faces, clearly extinguished......

No one knows how many layers Cheng Daxin has rolled.

How many knives and axes were received along the way.

In the end, Cheng Daxin's corpse was dragged into the hall in a scattered manner, like a scattered paper kite, and the blood spread across the golden palace, and the ministers retreated like a tide, making a huge exclamation.

The timid Wang Yin was the closest, and Cheng Daxin's incomplete fingers didn't know how to put on his hand, and the frightened Wang Yin urinated on his buttocks: "Ah! Cheng Zuo Yin ——"

"You...... You ......"

There is a wrong, there is a debtor, it's useless for you to catch me...... Let it go!~

Many old ministers have already fainted on the spot. Li Lao also fell into his son's arms, his whole body trembled, his eyes were crooked, and he longed to faint at this time, and shouted his name silently: big heart, big heart......

My good son-in-law......

Zida watched coldly, motioned for a soldier to come forward to probe his breath, and turned back to report: "Report! Lord Cheng has no breath......

Zhao Changzhi rushed into the hall covered in blood, and replied: "Order Yin, Cheng Zuo Yin just walked out of the palace with the intention of assassinating and coercing the old slave, this is the evidence of rebellion that General Qi subdued the rebel thief and searched from him......"

"Bang".

A piece of bamboo slips impeaching Ruo Ao was scattered on the ground, which was the evidence of their so-called rebellion.

"—— Uproar"

The court was in chaos again.

Li Lao closed his eyes deeply, his fingers clasped the floor tiles, his nails rolled, his back trembled, and he didn't look at the bamboo slip.

If you want to add sin, why should you do it?

"Qi Yu Ling Yin!"

Liu Yi suddenly rose from the ground: "The subordinates have something to play!"

With this sentence, all the eyes of the ministers converged on him: "Weichen wants to impeach the Cheng clan, take advantage of the power of merit, and take advantage of the queen's recuperation to abuse his power, forcibly expropriate the old mansion of the Zhou family, expand the private house, and now he intends to rebel, and the two crimes are combined!"

Liu Yiyue spoke louder and louder, and even Ruo Ao Ziyan turned his head and looked at him: "Please order Yin Zhichen to immediately arrest the Cheng clan and prevent them from escaping from the city." ”

This Liu Yi also reversed black and white.

For a while, Shen Wuxing's eyes couldn't help but glance at Liu Yi on the side, and pointed at him: "You are a person who tends to be inflammatory......"

"Ruo Ao's lackey......"

Shen Wuxing still wanted to scold.

Liu Yi didn't say much, he had already stepped forward and grabbed his throat when he spoke, pressed it to the ground, and asked for instructions: "Dare to ask Ling Yin, how to deal with the Cheng family and this person?"

Ruo Ziyong pounced and shouted to stop it.

"Ling Yin, no! Xianyin is the grandson of the Taishi, you can't kill it! The Cheng clan is also a branch of my Ruo Ao clan, and the blood is connected, if even they are killed, my Ruo Ao ghost will one day have no descendants to sacrifice!"

If Ao Ziyan raised his head, he saw that all the people in the audience were staring at him tightly, and on the ground, Cheng Daxin's corpse was lying in the river of blood, blooming a blood flower, and the warm blood was steaming in winter.

looked at Liu Yi in the field.

He asked again, "What do you think should be done, Liu Yi?"

Liu Yi replied loudly: "In view of Xianyin's first offense, according to the court law, he will be punished with 20 canes in court;

Ruo Ao Ziyan, who heard the words, sat silently on the half-covered bead curtain, wrapped in Dahao, leaning on the dark and noble copper couch, turning the jade wrench on his thumb, and finally calmly raised his hand, waved his fingers, and judged the life and death of the Cheng family.

Put someone’s head on a spike?

This is dead and not all corpses.

At that time, people attached great importance to what was behind them.

As soon as these words came out, the frightened souls of the Manchu civil and military forces were scattered, so that when they left the palace, they almost fled to leave.

I didn't dare to look back at the head that had been cut off by the soldiers, hanging bloodily above the palace, with empty eyes, long tongues, and blood winding down the wooden pole little by little, and finally flowing out, and even on such a cold day, the black-headed flies could "buzz" not far away, attach to them, and become a black patch......

On the square, Shen Wuxing, who was suppressed to the ground and punished with a court staff, witnessed the darkness of the Chu State again and again, and shouted: "If the Ao clan is in the house, it will not be a good death!"

Xiao Huanglin stepped forward with a forked sword: "Block his stinky mouth!"

“……”

The wild dog, as a subordinate, stood behind him with his head bowed.

In the nineteenth year of King Chumu, in October, he became a big heart!
