Chapter 255: The Flying Eagle Sets Out
Yandan City, the largest city in the Yandan Empire, is also the capital city of the Yandan Empire.
Although the Yandan Empire is not the largest empire in Nanzhou, it is not comparable to ordinary small empires, and it can be said that under the Holy Land, no one dares to provoke.
As the capital of the Yandan Empire, Dancheng is prosperous and prosperous, and it can be called the most in Dongzhou, and even here, there is a stationing of the Holy Land, which shows the strength of Yandan City.
Today's Yandan City is very lively, large and small shops hang colorful flags, people wear formal clothes on the street, neatly stand on both sides of the main street of Yandan City, also holding flowers and colorful flags in their hands, and look at the north, where the palace is located.
In front of the palace square, there is a huge city gate that is hundreds of meters high, releasing the glow of golden wheat, and the atmosphere of this golden city gate is even the sunlight through it is noble and extraordinary.
And under this gate, there stood a man.
He had long black hair that was as black as ink, scattered on his white clothes, and only slightly tied the hair in front of his head with a white belt, and his whole body exuded the same cold temperament as his sword. The three-dimensional facial features carved like a sharp knife exude a cold atmosphere, the thin lips are beautifully pursed, and the eyes are so deep that they can't see the bottom.
"General Xuanda, Shangguan Feiying enters the hall!"
In the depths of the palace, there was a loud shout, the sound passed through the gate of the palace, through the Baishoumu altar, through a kilometer-long stone road, through the bodies of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on both sides of the stone road, and finally, arrived at the golden gate, falling on the man's ears.
The man slowly raised his head, and the deep starry eyes were burning with surging flames of war.
Rustle rustle......
The man's iron boots stepped on the stone road, making a dull sound, and when the soldiers along the way saw the man coming, they turned their heads one after another, with respect in their eyes, but there was indeed a touch of contempt in their eyes.
Especially those veterans who were in the front, when they saw Shangguan Feiying walking in front of them, they showed a sarcastic look on their faces: "Young man, the old man advises you to go back, the battlefield is not the place where a boy with fine skin and tender meat like you should come." ”
One person spoke, and immediately another person sneered: "Shangguan Feiying, don't think that after your father died, you inherited the title of general, just think that you are a real general, and tell you, you are still far behind." ”
"Hehe, impulsiveness will ruin a person, the old man advises you not to join the battlefield because your father died in battle, with your current ability, it is impossible to avenge him. ”
"You have just entered the Nine Heavens of Ninghai Realm, how can you afford the position of a general, don't mess around, see the king in a while and quickly hand over the military power." ”
......
The murmur of the murmur reached the man's ears, but Shangguan Feiying turned a deaf ear, just smiled faintly, his face was full of rebelliousness, and he took a step forward and walked into the palace!
In the palace, a man wearing a golden crown sat on the throne, flanked by civil and military officials who had been waiting for a long time.
When Shangguan Feiying walked into the palace, everyone's eyes came together, just like the people outside before, everyone's eyes were not only surprised, but also sarcastic.
Shangguan Feiying came to the front of the palace, stood up straight with his waist, clasped his hands into fists and said in a deep voice: "Shangguan Feiying, see Prime Minister Rong Yan." ”
"Bold!Shangguan Feiying, what is in front of you is the king of my Yandan Empire, Your Majesty King Rongyan, you can see clearly with your eyes wide!" a man in a gorgeous robe and a beard next to the man on the throne stood up and scolded.
Not only him, but when Shangguan Feiying shouted out the sentence of Rong Yan Xiangjue, the faces of all the courtiers changed, and in an instant, countless sharp eyes pointed at Shangguan Feiying.
"Ahem!" The man on the throne coughed heavily, and immediately suppressed everyone's voices, he squinted, and the pair of deep eyes under the crown looked at the immobile man in the main hall, and said: "That's it, this king has not been officially crowned king, and there is nothing wrong with Shangguan Feiying calling this king the prime minister." ”
"Your Majesty, this Shangguan Feiying is clearly questioning the king, the king has been on the throne for more than ten years, has worked hard for the Yandan Empire for more than ten years, and has fought countless battles, even if there is no mixed yuan ruler, we also admit that you are the only king!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, you are the only king of the Yandan Empire!"
The ministers echoed one after another, but only Shangguan Feiying stood still, his determined gaze firmly fixed on the man on the throne.
"Huh...... Quiet. ”
The corners of the man's mouth on the throne raised, as if he didn't care, and said: "Those are all false names, the big war is coming, don't argue." ”
As soon as these words appeared, the people under them raised their eyes to look at the person on the throne, their eyes were full of respect, and it was really a blessing for the Yandan Empire to have such a magnanimous king.
"Zuo Xiangjue, declare your order. The man on the throne spoke faintly.
"Do as the king commands. A man in a big red robe walked out of the hundred officials, came to the front of the main hall with the jade scroll in his hand, glanced at Shangguan Feiying, who was unruly in place, and spoke.
"In the five hundred and thirty-second year of the Yandan Empire, the first king Shangguan Zizang died of illness, his daughter Shangguan Zishi disappeared, the royal power mixed with the ruler was lost, and the neighboring country Xiaoyun came to attack, and was embattled. ”
"Rong Yan Xiangjue was ordered to take over the throne in just four years, and it took only four years to quell the war, revitalize the national prestige in three years, and save the people of Yandan from fire and water, which is a great luck for Yandan. ”
"But three months ago, Shangguan Xiao, the general of Yandan's soldiers and horses, unfortunately died at the hands of the despicable gangsters of the Xiaoyun Empire, and the front line was in short supply, and a new general of soldiers and horses was urgently needed. ”
"According to the laws of the Yandan Empire, the position of General of Soldiers and Horses should be held by Shangguan Feiying, the son of Shangguan Xiao, so Wang Te granted Shangguan Feiying the position of General of Soldiers and Horses, and he can go to the front line!"
After the red-robed man finished reading, his eyes sank, and he shouted: "Shangguan Feiying, still don't accept the king's decree?"
Shangguan Feiying stood in place, his eyes swept around him, walked up to the hall, took the jade scroll, and said in a deep voice: "Shangguan Feiying will live up to the high hopes of Lord Rong Yan." ”
The red-robed man raised his eyebrows when he heard this, now that the whole dynasty is called the king of civil and military affairs, only this kid is the only one who sings the opposite, and he really doesn't take the royal power in his eyes?
"No, your king!"
Just after the red-robed man finished reading out, another white-bearded old man standing in his position hurriedly stood up, pointed at Shangguan Feiying and shouted: "Your Majesty, although according to the law of Yandan, Shangguan Feiying should inherit the position of general, but this son is still young, but how can he afford the position of general of soldiers and horses in Ninghai Realm?"
"Wang Shangmingjian, successive generals of soldiers and horses, but there is no lower than the Heavenly Star Realm, according to the old minister, this Shangguan Feiying cultivation is low, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public at the front line, and it will also make the Xiaoyun Empire laugh, which will damage the prestige of my Yandan!"
The man on the throne showed a deep expression and said, "It is not unreasonable for Lord Ji Chen to be worried. ”
The other civil and military officials also nodded in agreement when they heard this, and looked at Shangguan Feiying with a mocking look in their eyes.
Facing the doubts of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, Shangguan Feiying shook his head and said lightly: "What Ji Chenjue said, my Shangguan Feiying's cultivation is low, and he is not worthy of being a general of soldiers and horses?"
When Ji Chenjue heard this, he immediately showed a mocking look on his face, and said: "Shangguan Feiying, it's useless if you are not convinced, war is not child's play, there is no room for the slightest difference, if it is because of your poor command of the army, our soldiers are injured, you can't afford this responsibility!"
"You know, your father Shangguan Xiao is still the second heaven of the Heavenly Star Realm, throughout the history of my Yan Dan Kingdom, none of the previous generals of the soldiers and horses is lower than the second heaven of the Heavenly Star Realm, you are only the Ninghai Realm Nine Heavens, what do you take to serve the people, what do you take to command the three armies?"
Ji Chenjue's words were very tricky, not only insulting Shangguan Feiying, but even his father Shangguan Xiao was also involved, which can be described as vicious. And Ji Chenjue is the title of Chenjue, ranking second among the four lords of Xiang, Chen, Xing, and Shi, his words have a strong influence, and everyone showed displeasure for a while.
"Your Majesty, according to the old ministers, it is better to let Ji Chenjue's son Ji Bangtu lead the army, Ji Bangtu Gongzi just broke through the Heavenly Star Realm a few days ago, and also attracted the four thunder tribulations, this kind of talent, in the Yandan Empire, I can't find a second person who can compare with it, and Ji Bangtu Gongzi is familiar with the art of war, proficient in the three ways of soldiers, if he comes to lead the army, he can completely defeat the Xiaoyun Kingdom!"
The red-robed man spoke, he is a prime minister, naturally he has a very important right to speak, this exit instantly drew everyone's attention to Ji Chenjue, the born eyebrows are clear, the personable man, everyone nodded and praised, the more they look at this kid, the more pleasing it is.
In fact, there is Zuo Xiangjue who speaks, and if it is not pleasing to the eye, it must be pleasing to the eye.
Ji Bangtu, who was beside Ji Chenjue, hurriedly waved his hand when he heard this, bowed to the man on the throne, and said: "The king must not, Bangtu is just a petty officer of the Sergeant, although he has studied the art of war for many years, but it is just an interest, if I really go to the battlefield, how can I be worthy of half the majesty of the Flying Eagle General?"
Ji Bangtu waved his hand again and again, but there was an imperceptible joy in his eyes.
"Gongzi Bangtu is modest, you were invincible to Yan Dan when you were young, and Shangguan Feiying was just a little cub who played with his sister every day. ”
"After that, the prince of Bang Tu entered the Yandan Senior Military Academy for further study, breaking the youngest history of the Yandan Senior Military Academy to obtain second-class merits, and personally experienced the front line for a year, and made countless contributions to the Yandan Empire.
There was a person who held the official position of Chen Jue and stood up, and he did not hesitate to praise and praise the plan high.
Ji Bangtu smiled bitterly when he heard this, but when he looked at Shangguan Feiying, his eyes were invisibly proud.
"Shangguan Feiying, this king admires you very much, and also admires your father Shangguan Xiao very much, but war is not a child's play, if you can't come up with some means to convince the public, I'm afraid that this king can only behave in a difficult way, otherwise something really happened to you after you went to the battlefield, one, you are ashamed of your father Shangguan Xiao, and second, you are ashamed of the Yandan people behind you. ”
The man on the throne did not look up, his eyes lowered and he spoke indifferently.
Shangguan Feiying's eyes sank, and there was a pure wood-colored yuan force surging on his body, he raised his head, facing the face of the man on the throne, and said proudly: "Rong Yan Xiangjue, I don't know how I, Shangguan Feiying, want to serve the public?"
The man on the throne squinted his eyes and said, "At the very least, you must have the strength of the Heavenly Star Realm." ”
Shangguan Feiying lowered his head when he heard this, a very light smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he raised his hand and took off an emerald green ring that had been worn on his right hand, and in an instant, the face of the person on the throne changed!
In the main hall, Shangguan Feiying's body did not move, but it had already floated on the spot, and on his body, the pure wood attribute yuan power was surging, exuding a breathtaking momentum, which was so terrifying that Ji Chenjue retreated again and again, pointing at Shangguan Feiying, but he couldn't say a word.
"Heavenly Star Realm!"
The ministers exclaimed in surprise, they never expected Shangguan Feiying to hide so deeply......
"Now, can I serve the public?"
Boom –
A circle of invisible qi waves erupted from Shangguan Feiying's body, and in an instant, a gust of wind was set off in the hall, and the civil and military officials retreated in horror, and several Ninghai Realm guards hurriedly rushed into the outside of the hall, carrying spears and stepping forward, but their legs were constantly trembling.
The gap between the Ninghai Realm and the Heavenly Star Realm is too big, if Shangguan Feiying really wants to mess around, it is not something that a few of them can stop.
The face of the man on the throne changed again and again, and finally recovered
After calming down, he said, "That's enough." ”
Shangguan Feiying lowered his body, and in his black eyes, he couldn't see any emotion in the transparency, as if he had seen through all the heat and coldness in the world, and a sense of arrogance that melted into his bones emanated, and he watched the vicissitudes of life with cold eyes.
Ji Chenjue was frightened, but he still didn't give up, he finally waited for this moment, and colluded with several old friends to support his son, how could this Shangguan Feiying move?
Ji Bangtu's eyes were cold, and he clenched his fists tightly.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is not convinced, my son is trying to live in heaven and earth, proud of Yan Dan, and has survived the four heavenly thunder tribulations that have never been seen in the history of Yan Dan, which is the first day of Yan Dan. ”
"Since ancient times, the throne of the world has been inhabited by capable people, not to mention the important position of General Yan Dan Soldiers and Horses, if it is handed over to idle people, it will definitely make me Yan Dan suffer a thousand years of shame, this position must be like my son, a truly capable person can take on it!"
As soon as Ji Chenjue spoke, other officials also echoed, obviously biased towards Ji Wantu.
The man on the throne made a difficulty, he had already spoken, if he repented at this time, he would be suspected of not believing his words, I am afraid that it will make those who have a heart fall into the roots.
And at this moment, a shadow slowly walked out on the right side of the main hall.
It was a woman, about the same age as Shangguan Feiying, wearing a snow-white skirt like a floating cloud, fading the childishness of a girl, a simple flying fairy bun like black jade, with a dusty posture that people dare not blaspheme, a pair of tearful and beautiful eyes overflowing, and a pearl-like lip flap smiling lightly.
"See Princess Blueshire. When the ministers saw the girl coming, they bowed down together.
Shangguan Feiying also rolled his eyes, but only glanced at the girl, then quickly turned his head, and his eyes were ...... It was a panic that had never appeared in the face of King Yandan.
Princess Lanjun's beautiful eyes swept around the crowd, and finally stopped on Shangguan Feiying, but seeing that the latter didn't look at her, Princess Lanjun's eyes had a complicated color.
When Lan Jun appeared, Ji Wangtu's eyes were beating with undisguised love fire.
"Father. Lan Jun turned his head and saluted respectfully to the man on the throne, then turned around, and a noble aura emanated.
"Since everyone thinks that General Shangguan Feiying is not as good as Ji Bangtu Gongzi, I think it is better to let them compete in a game, and the person who wins is naturally the general of soldiers and horses. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes lit up, and Ji Chenjue smiled from ear to ear, and hurriedly said: "Princess Lanjun is really smart, so she really speaks with strength, and he has nothing to say about Shangguan Feiying!"
"Yes, yes, what Her Royal Highness the Princess said is very true!"
Everyone echoed one after another, and even the man on the throne gave his daughter an approving look and nodded in agreement.
Princess Lanjun came to Shangguan Feiying, took a deep breath, and opened her red lips slightly: "General Shangguan Feiying, are you willing to fight?"
Shangguan Feiying was silent when he heard this, tilted his head slightly, and his eyes were facing Princess Lanjun, no more than half a meter apart.
Seeing this, Ji Bangtu on the side felt angry in his heart, and secretly said that he would definitely beat Shangguan Feiying to the point that he couldn't take care of himself for a while, and he had this confidence, because he was a cultivator who had survived the Four Heavenly Tribulations, the first person in Yan Dan Eternal History, and he had long since stopped taking anyone in his eyes because of his talent.
Facing the delicate face that was close at hand, Shangguan Feiying's eyes seemed to be hesitant, hesitant, painful, and nostalgic, and that look contained a thousand words from him, but now he couldn't say a word, because he was Shangguan Feiying, Shangguan Xiao's son!
"I refuse. ”
Swish!
The palace was unprecedentedly calm, everyone's eyes widened, and even Ji Bangtu showed an incredible expression, he knew something about Shangguan Feiying's character, the latter would never refuse this kind of appointment, and this was also related to the position of the general of soldiers and horses, and he had no reason to shirk......
And he actually refused, thinking about it, Ji Bangtu's face gradually swelled with joy that he couldn't hide, could it be that Shangguan Feiying knew that he would lose, and was afraid?!
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Princess Lanjun's face, but it was only for a short moment, and then Princess Lanjun looked at Shangguan Feiying with her eyes, and said a little angrily: "Why did you refuse?"
Shangguan Feiying's face turned cold, and he slowly walked towards the center of the main hall, frightening several guards backwards......
Shangguan Feiying turned around and pointed at the man on the throne, at the princess of Lanjun, at the civil and military officials, and pointed at his chest, his gaze was firm.
"I, Shangguan Feiying, am only loyal to the lineage of the Shangguan family, only loyal to Shangguan Zishi and her descendants, and only loyal to the ruler of the Chaos Ruler. ”
"You have no right to ask me to do anything, let alone decide my position as a general. ”
"So, I reject your offer. ”
......
Shangguan Feiying's words came out, and the audience was silent, because what he said was true, since ancient times, there has only been one person in power in the Shangguan family, and that is the descendants of the Shangguan family who hold the Chaos Ruler, and the two conditions are indispensable.
Shangguan Rongyan, neither of these conditions is met, in terms of identity, he has always been in charge of the king.
It is also an indisputable fact that the post of general of the soldiers and horses has the same status as the two prime ministers, and no one has the right to appoint and dismiss anyone except the real king.
And at this moment, behind the screen of the main hall, a beautiful girl's face was revealed, she looked at the man standing in the center of the main hall, pointing at Princess Lanjun, pointing at Shangguan Rongyan, and pointing at the civil and military officials who shouted loudly......
