"Although the vision is too poor for you warriors, I have seen too much of the martial arts, and under the influence of my ears and eyes, I can understand this competition. Under the sympathy of the qi of the two Accumulation Masters, the potential of other people was squeezed out, but the Yin Elder and the Punishment Elder broke the foundation, and you broke the martial arts path of the two Accumulation Grandmasters, and went to others. Is it really good to fish like this?"

Mo Xichao said in a flat voice: "What's wrong with this? Although Yin Lao is a long-standing grandmaster, because he witnessed the extraordinary scene at the peak of the first-class, he has already planted a huge loophole in his heart, although he later made a breakthrough and became a grandmaster, but this life has stopped here, since it is already such a situation, this competition is not a loss for him." As for Xing Litang, I don't have much friendship with him, and it is reasonable for him to calculate, what does Mr. Xiangru think?"

Bai Xiangru sighed helplessly and said: "After this competition, others will think that you will make this game because the war is coming, in order to improve the skills of the generals, even Liu Miaomiao thinks so." But Xing Litang is Zhao Shi's wife's family, and if you cut off the martial arts path of Xing Litang, Zhao Shi will hate you. ”

"And the other generals also think that you are the kind of person who can sacrifice anyone by unscrupulous means to achieve the goal, and will be wary of you everywhere in the future, afraid of being calculated by you. But who knows, you are just to make these people wary of you, afraid of you, and even hate you. Do you really want to keep yourself in the Xuanyi and have no place to stand, Lord Modu, the old man doesn't understand, why are you doing this?"

Mo Xichao said calmly: "No, they will thank me, it is really human nature. Xiao Liuzi had already understood why I wanted them to participate in the competition, but he didn't say a word from beginning to end, and took Zhao Xi to the battle because he also wanted such an opportunity. The Eastern Overseer also understands this, so I am entrusting him to ask for the old manager Liang. He Jiu is sleek......"

As soon as he said this, he was interrupted by Bai Xiangru and said: "No, you definitely don't think like this in your heart, Dongfang is loyal to the crown prince, and he will not let go of any opportunity to improve his skills, and Han Lu thinks that you are an indifferent and ruthless person because of the loss of Li Sangongzi a few years ago." ”

"If you don't make a move, you may lock him and Zhao Shi in again, and he chose the side that is stronger than himself. And Zhao Shi, don't say it, he didn't react until later, at the end of the strong crossbow of the Xing Litang. He Jiu is sleek, and no one can be offended on weekdays, because he is from a low background and has too low self-esteem, so he will obey his orders. ”

"And Ban Shichiro, in this fight, has been saving people, afraid that they will hurt each other. His temperament has also been calculated by you. But I don't know that saving people is more than fighting. They all have a last resort, alas, the old man really doesn't understand, why do you want them to be afraid of you, or even hate you?"

Mo Xichao sighed slightly, under the morning sun, the fog formed by his strong breathing was particularly obvious, he stood with his hands in his hands, and said lightly: "Like your predecessors, when you wrote "Spring Ceremony", your heart must be extremely hateful. ”

Bai Xiangru shook his head slightly, and said: "Indeed, the old man hates it very much, hates the gang people who abducted my son, and hates the people in the martial arts who humiliated my wife." So the first half of the old man's life was spent in constant revenge, and it wasn't until later that the old man realized that he hated the world. In this world, there should be no gangs, sects, and powerful people. Now, serving as the general staff officer in Xuanyi is just because of Li Sangongzi's sentence of 'inspecting the world', which is the old man's stop. And what are you hating?"

Mo Xichao nodded lightly and said: "I'm not as good as my predecessors, my predecessors hated this world, and what I hated was just such a group of people, if I could let this group of people die cleanly, Xichao was willing to pay for my life." ”

He said this very calmly, but after Bai Xiangru tasted it for a while, he suddenly realized that he was very unbelievable, and asked incredulously, "Are you leaving?"

Mo Xichao didn't say a word, and looked up at the deep blue sky.

In the sky, an extremely fast eagle swooped down into the square.

Mo Xichao secretly thought that after this big battle, he should realize my value, but he didn't know what price he would use to buy me.

The bald eagle rushed straight at them, and circled around them for a long time, never falling, as if he could not figure out which master to fall on.

Mo Xichao sighed and said: "Just like the predecessors, the first-line eagle is here, the Supreme is already in a big way, the big war is coming, let's act according to the plan." ”

Bai Xiangru stretched out his hand slightly, and the bald eagle got the signal, stopped on his arm, and then said with a light "um", and said: "It's also time, but today's matter, the old man will go to the third son, whether you want to leave or have other thoughts, the old man will report the truth." ”

Mo Xichao smiled, no longer spoken, and walked down the steps.

……

Emperor Jinghe died of illness and issued a national document.

In the capital, they were wrapped overnight.

After the people knew that the benevolent emperor died, they did not need to be supervised by the government, and they consciously inserted a pole in front of their door.

The shops have been closed, the Qinglou Chu Pavilion has been closed, the gambling houses have also gone to the empty buildings, and Xun Guijun also guarded the door of the house during this time and never went out.

The ministers and the Ministry of Rites have already discussed the name of Emperor Jinghe: Roughly Tianxin, Dharma Dao, Extreme Merit, Quande, Shenwen, Shengren, Ruiming, Philosophy, and Emperor Xiaowen.

The temple number is set as: Renzong

On the 28th day of the lunar month, the ceremony was held.

After the ceremony, it will be necessary to wait for the completion of the construction of the imperial mausoleum, and then Emperor Jinghe, Empress Yin, and Dong Guifei will be buried together.

Although the construction of the mausoleum had already begun in the early years of Jinghe, it may have to wait three or five years for the day of burial, because the project is too huge.

And the coffin of Emperor Jinghe, together with Empress Yin and Concubine Dong Guifei, stopped at Feng'an Palace.

The enthronement ceremony of the new emperor is set on the fifteenth day of the first month of the following year, the day of the Lantern Festival.

It's just that there is a nodding question in the meantime, that is, the new emperor's era name has not been set for a long time.

Originally, the new year name discussed by the ministers was: Longyun.

The meaning of the take: Longchang Daji, the long-term transport of the country.

Unfortunately, the new emperor was very dissatisfied and ordered them to change.

This was not a new thing before, the emperor was dissatisfied with his year name, and asked the cabinet ministers and the Ministry of Rites to renegotiate Yiwu, which was also normal.

It's like the first emperor Jinghe, who was very dissatisfied with his own era name and wanted to establish his own era name, but wasn't he blocked back by the ministers?

So at this time, the ministers didn't take it to heart, and the left and right were just trusts, at the time of the enthronement ceremony, if there was no suitable era name, we had the final say?

But they really discussed a few, such as: Zhengjia, Wanxian, or Shunkang, Xuantong, and the like.

But he always couldn't call the new emperor's wishes, so the matter about the era name has been held.

The ministers thought, it doesn't matter, the era name must be established at the time of the ceremony, and when the time comes, this young supreme will definitely have to choose one among them.

Therefore, the ministers are not in a hurry.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this may be just a trivial matter, but the reason why it is like this is because it is a contest between the prime minister and the imperial power.

Although there is no prime minister now, there is still a "Wenyuan Palace".

There are eight people in the affairs of the "Wenyuan Palace", and they all receive the title of university scholar, such as "Wen'an Pavilion University Scholar", "Wenhua Pavilion University Scholar", "Wenchong Pavilion University Scholar", and so on, and these eight people, all of them are official residences, and the folk are commonly known as: "Eight Great Pavilion Giants".

In addition to the important affairs of the military aircraft, the "Wenyuan Pavilion" can be in charge of all the administrative departments in the country, above the six departments. And they can also participate in important military affairs, but they cannot go beyond the fourteen privy envoys of the "Privy Council". Therefore, most of them are only in charge of internal affairs.

But even so, they have a lot of power, and they can negate and make decisions and deny whether the emperor's intentions are reasonable. If it's unreasonable, just hit it back, and no one needs to give face.

Therefore, they are also called the "Eight Great Phases"

Therefore, the emperors of the past generations always wanted to "fight for power" with them.

The "Eight Phases" want to take this opportunity to let the emperor understand the power of the "cabinet ministers", and the emperor also wants the "Eight Phases" to know how heavy the imperial power is.

As for the rest of the fighting, take your time.

……

On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, the day before Emperor Jinghe's grand ceremony, when the whole country was mourning, something happened that the ministers did not expect.

In the capital, tens of thousands of people, at noon on this day, spontaneously saw off the emperor here.

At first, it was only in the early morning, and among the more than 20 houses on the Suzaku Fang, there were one or two people wearing filial piety clothes walking on the street, attracting the attention of other people.

And this person is their neighbor.

So someone asked curiously: "Ma San'er, your father is not dead, who are you wearing this white robe of filial piety clothes to." ”

The man called Ma San replied calmly, "My family has received the grace of the Supreme Lord, if there is no benevolence of the Supreme Lord, I am afraid that our family will die ten years ago." My father said that the Supreme Lord is gone, and the good emperor is gone, so he asked me to go to the noon gate to kowtow to the Supreme Lord and thank him for the kindness of his old man's life. ”

While walking, this Ma San'er didn't pay attention to the others, and walked straight forward.

On the side of the street, a young man who bought breakfast heard his words, thought for a while, threw away the bowl of sesame porridge that had just been sent to the guests, tore off a white cloth from the white flag, wrapped it on his forehead, and without saying a word, followed Ma San.

The filthy man who was waiting for him to make a porridge asked, "Alas~!Qian Mutou, your grandfather hasn't eaten yet, what do you mean by picking a child?"

Qian Mutou echoed and said: "Our family is supreme, I want to send it." ”

When the filthy man saw this, he stopped eating his troublesome porridge, stood up, and shouted: "Hey, brother, there's a lot of fun, hey, this wooden mind is wooden, go, follow and see." ”
