Chapter 574: The Silent Restoration
Cuiwei Palace is located in the northwest of the Southern Tang Dynasty on the Qinghua Mountain, is thousands of years ago, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty Nangong built by the people, but also after the early establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the first new palace for the summer of the dynasty.
Moreover, Nangong Shi also died on the dragon bed of this Cuiwei Palace back then.
Since then, the dynasty has built three palaces one after another, but the gods and emperors of the past dynasties, in the summer and autumn, the favorite place to go is still the Qinghua Mountain in the northwest.
Qinghua Mountain borders the southeast of the Qinling Mountains, as the boundary between the north and south of the mainland, the Qinling Mountains are not only a simple difference between the north and the south, but also on the north and south sides of the mountain range, the climate, folk customs, agricultural crops, festivals, and cultures on the continent have begun to appear significant differences.
Although Qinghua Mountain is only an inconspicuous mountain range in the southeast of the Qinling Mountains, it is on the edge of the boundary between the north and the south, and the climate is much cooler than that of Quejing City in the middle of this dynasty.
Qinghua Mountain is 800 zhang high, which is not a high and steep mountain range on the mainland, but it is one of the few in the Southern Tang Dynasty that is full of hills and plains.
Its mountains are covered with green plants, and there are smoke and clouds all year round, and there are countless scenic spots in it, like a fairyland on earth.
And this Cuiwei Palace is named after its 'mountain light like splashing dai'.
This palace cage mountain for the garden, in its southeast and northwest each have a hall, due north of the palace in the name of the palace, called Cuiwei Palace, is the place where the emperor and the queen of the gods and ministers discuss matters.
Facing north and south, it is called Yunxia Palace, as the name suggests, here is the best place to watch the sea of clouds and fog in the morning and the golden light and red glow in the evening.
The temple of the winds on the east side is the dormitory.
The Anxi Hall to the west is the prince's palace. And because the God Emperor Youlan has no children under his knees, after he succeeded to the throne, this place is vacant all year round.
Today, there is an uninvited guest.
"What's the matter, just summon us back to the sect, why do you have to go here in person?"
Outside the Yunxia Palace, inside the glazed flower pond, five begonias are in full bloom.
Everywhere the autumn wind passes, the petals are scattered, and they fall red like blood and snow.
This is how the Xue Xuan got its name.
And at this moment, the woman in the palace dress with peacock feathers was standing under the tree, smiling shallowly.
"I want to come and see these begonias. Nangong Que said.
Dongfang Bai smiled: "Since you like it, why don't you plant some on the bearing terrace yourself?"
"I like it here, but if I plant some on the deck, I may not like it so much. Nangong Que said.
"Whatever you want," Dongfang Bai said, "This time, but what do you want to inform us?"
As soon as Nangong Que turned her hand, a round pill appeared in the palm of her hand, the pill was red all over, red as blood, and like the begonias in this garden.
"What is this?"
"Blazing Blood Pill. Nangong Que added: "It was forged with one of the blood demon's arms. ”
"What do you want me to do?" Dongfang Bai said.
Nangong Que said calmly: "Heal." ”
Dongfang Bai raised his eyebrows: "You know?"
"Of course. Nangong Que said: "Back then, the master let you go with Youlan
, but gave me the position of the head of the sect, I knew that there must be some other reason, otherwise, with her temperament, the two of you will make a lot of trouble, and in the end, you have to honestly go back to be the master of this door. I was a curious person, and although I didn't know it at the time, I ...... later"
Dongfang Bai waved his hand, signaling that the other party didn't have to say any more, his eyes skimmed over the woman in palace clothes, looked at the begonia flower rain in the flower pond in front of him, and said softly: "I can't accept this pill." ”
"Why?"
Dongfang Bai turned his back away, as if he didn't dare to look at the eyes of the woman in the palace costume, "Self-damage to the foundation is the only way I can think of at that time, only by permanently cutting off the possibility of my own advanced string movement, the master will completely give up on me, I did what I wanted to be the god of Youlan, but I hurt you, I, I don't want to owe you more." ”
There are three personal disciples under the command of the former head of the Lanque Gate, the eldest disciple Dongfang Bai, the second disciple Nangong Que, and the third disciple Dongfang Key.
Among them, the eldest disciple Dongfang Bai has the highest talent, and the talents of the second disciple Nangong Que and the third disciple Dongfang Key are similarly different.
And because Dongfang Key was still young at that time, his cultivation was shallow, and it was difficult to convince the public, so there were actually only two candidates for the head of the previous generation, Dongfang Bai and Nangong Que.
At that time, whether it was the head of the sect himself or the clansmen of the four major families, including the Nangong family at that time, they were more inclined to let Dongfang Bai, who was more talented, take the position of head of the sect.
Therefore, Dongfang Bai's departure undoubtedly pushed Nangong Que to this position of head of the sect.
For an ambitious woman, this position of the head of the sect is undoubtedly better than that of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but for a woman like Nangong Que who has a quiet temperament, likes flowers and grass, does not love worldly battles, and has a heart for belonging, this is undoubtedly an unprecedented disaster.
The rumors between Nangong Que and Qingxuan Sect Leader Mu Que have been spread for many years, until a new generation of geniuses rises, and then they gradually disappear into the ears of everyone, a considerable part of which is groundless, and some are exaggerated, but there is indeed a short intersection between the two who have not yet taken over the sect at that time.
It is an exaggeration to say that the mountain alliance and the sea oath are unswerving, and it is nonsense to say that there is nothing between the two.
The truth is that when the two had a good impression of each other and had a secret affection, first Mu Qi was called back by Mu Tianzun, who was still alive, and abruptly announced that he would become Qingxuan's successor.
The relationship between the two that had just sparked a little bit was nipped in the bud like this.
Whether it is in the rumors in the market, or in Dongfang Bai's heart, she believes that although the two ascending to the position of head of the sect are the most glorious moments in their lives for Mu Que and Nangong Que, it undoubtedly makes them lose a lot, and the biggest regret is undoubtedly missing each other.
Nangong Que smiled.
"If this is the case, you don't have to mind, senior sister. ”
The autumn breeze blew, Ling Yu swayed lightly, and the woman in palace clothes said: "If you want to say I'm sorry, I should actually be sorry for you." ”
A cloud of wind appeared in front of Nangong Bird, slowly enveloping the Oriental White on the edge of the Begonia Flower Pond.
Dongfang Bai's eyes flashed with a different color.
"You, it turns out..."
"That's right," Nangong Que said: "Originally, I was greedy for the world and didn't want to be this master, so I have been hiding my talent in front of my master and senior sister, and even because of this, you have to destroy your foundation in order to be with Senior Brother Youlan as you wish." ”
The palace woman sighed softly and said, "Now it seems that being this master is my life, no matter how I hide, I can't hide it!"
"You're hiding so deeply!" Dongfang Bai also smiled.
"So this Blazing Blood Pill, Senior Sister, you don't have to thank me," Nangong Que said: "This arm of the Blood Demon, if it weren't for Jiang Ning's help, I wouldn't be able to cut it off, that kid's cultivation is still shallow, and he won't be blessed with this pill, so I discussed it with him, or give it to you, it's all a family, Senior Sister, you don't have to be polite to your son-in-law." ”
"Besides," Nangong Que said: "That day is almost coming, on this continent, one more Venerable will have more hope." ”
Dongfang Bai opened his mouth and inhaled, and the pill flew straight into her mouth.
"Since it's that kid's thing, you're welcome. Dongfang Bai turned to say: "Que'er, that girl, it's okay with you, although she recognizes us as a father, she rarely comes back to see us, I think I still have some resentment in my heart, and I want to bother you to be more enlightened." ”
"Que'er is very good, it's just that some of you follow your temperament, senior sister, as long as you are not by that kid's side for a moment, you will be worried about your stomach and soul, and during this time, it has been reduced a little," Nangong Que said with a smile: "As for resentment or something, it's Senior Sister that you think too much, Que Jing is too lively, she is just not used to it." ”
"That's very good," the Oriental vernacular wind changed, and said directly: "You and Mu Yu are doing this against Venerable Fu, if my guess is right, he doesn't want that fake Gu Youji to die so early, right?"
Of course he didn't want to. Nangong Que said.
"Emperor Fu is the one who has stayed in the other domains for the longest time in the entire Eastern Court Domain Continent, and his knowledge is also the widest, he has not only seen Mu Tianzun, but also the rest of the Tianzun who are still alive, he has probably seen them all. ”
Nangong Que said: " It is precisely because he has seen the incomparable strength and transcendent realm of those people, so his heart will not be like those people on the mainland, regard himself as an invincible figure, he even has people outside the mountain, so he is never proud, the disciples of Nanhua Mountain have always been hidden, even if there are occasionally a few born, they are all humble and never public, this is a good thing, but, because of this, although his layout on the mainland is very precise, but it is inevitable that there is some procrastination for stability, in my opinion, time is simply not enough. ”
"This point, Emperor Fu himself may not be able to see it, otherwise, what the barbarians did in the north this time would not have suddenly become so strange
Obviously, there was already a sense of urgency in the hearts of him and that high priest Yue Yun, but this was far from enough, staying in the Eastern Imperial Palace in the Central Region for too long, although the eyes of the Star Cage Tower were all over the continent, however, there was a considerable difference between what he saw with his own eyes and converted into words, words and other news, and then passed into his own hands after a period of time, especially for people like us, this point, I think you yourself have a deep understanding of it, senior sister. ”
"That's true," Dongfang Bai nodded, "The movements on the side of the Pavilion are speeding up step by step, obviously realizing the problem, and now you are taking the risk to do it in advance, even more so, during this period of time, the Star Cage Tower is extremely silent, and no one has come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, think about it, then Lan Fengyu also understands what you mean." I can see Emperor Fu's movements clearly, but I don't understand what the barbarian high priest is doing. The mainland is facing such a danger, although it is blocked by the Heavenly Broken Mountain Range, but she will not fail to understand that the abrupt withdrawal of troops from Cloud City obviously shows this, but, at this time, the barbarians are still sending troops north one after another, which is obviously internal friction, even if you want to act for that person, it will not be so realistic, right?"
"That person is extremely smart, and the fake show naturally needs to be done," Nangong Que said: "As for what she's doing, to be honest, I don't know very well." This must be clear only to Venerable Fu and herself. ”
Dongfang Bai said: "What about that kid, what kind of fame has he been doing in the north recently, you also know, in the Southern Tang Dynasty, my eyes are brighter than yours, but outside, I still have to rely on our doorman." ”
"Ah~" Nangong Que sighed softly, lowered his head to support his forehead, and said helplessly: "Originally, I went to find the ghost king he hid in the space, but I was nosy on the way and gave birth to some moths, and I ran to Kurosawa at this time, fortunately, I still have some friendship with that Lin Xizhen, and I have been secretly informed, and I don't expect to make any waves." ”
Dongfang Baimei's eyes turned, and she rolled her eyes when she landed, and said angrily: "Nosy?
"Yes," Nangong Que sneered, in front of her senior sister, she seemed to have changed back to the green girl she was back then, without the slightest shelf, "I'm afraid that after this time, it will become more than ten, you mother-in-law, but it's hard to worry!"
"Hey," Dongfang Bai sighed lightly: "That slap was light last time!"
After speaking, on the side of the begonia pond, the two sisters were laughing.
Invisibly, for many years, the invisible and intangible, but real layer of separation between the two of them disappeared unconsciously, and Dongfang Bai and Nangong Que seemed to have regained the feeling of intimacy and nothing to talk about in their youth.
At this moment, in the Cuiwei Palace, facing a large stack of Divine Emperor Youlan who personally criticized Zhu, raised his head, looked outside the empty hall, and hooked slightly
The corners of his mouth were raised.
......
......
Nighttime mountain sandwich road.
The man in white was still holding the beautiful woman in his arms, but the mountain road was already full of corpses.
Both the enemy's and his own people.
The difference is that there are some people who are standing.
And the enemy, already lying down.
Among them, there are four masters of the legal domain.
"Heishui Village, Sanssouci Palace?" the man in white chuckled: "Heh, call your village master and palace master together, maybe I will leave obediently, but you also want to scare me, you can't help but think too highly of yourself!"
The man looked at the distant mountains and showed a cold smile, and whispered: "Jin Zhu, if that batch of goods is given to me directly, I don't have to make this trip." ”
"Today, my Qingjiao is gone, although that Qingcong is a waste, but it depends on the owner to beat the dog, at the moment, it is not 10,000 dansha can solve it!"
There is no one else, it is Bai Quan, the leader of the Qianjiang Gang, and his sister Bai Feng'er.
Shi Lei, the master of the second hall, was left to take care of the gang, and the rest of the people were selected by him and brought some of the elites here with him.
In the previous battle, although he won with one enemy and four enemies, during the entanglement, many people and horses on his side still died, which made Bai Quan's heart even more unhappy.
After working together for so many years, Bai Quan originally thought that the king of the golden bamboo was a guy who could see the overall situation clearly and understand the priorities, otherwise he would not have used the power of the Extreme Valley to turn the declining golden bamboo back into the most powerful of the four Yelang clans.
Therefore, when the Valley of the Hidden Pole was destroyed, Bai Quan immediately sent a message to Qingcong who was returning, asking him to return to the Qianjiang Gang directly with the goods.
It was because he knew that even if Qing Cong returned to the Qianjiang Gang with the goods and swallowed his dansha, the Bamboo King would not let out half a fart, because they were embattled, and it was obviously not a wise choice to offend the Qianjiang Gang at this time.
However, the result of the matter was that Qing Cong died, and the entire Qingjiaotang of his Qianjiang Gang died, and the goods were lost, and even the Guangfulou ship sank.
The matter of Dansha is known to Youji Valley, Qianjiang Gang, and Jinzhu.
Now that the valley is extinguished, and the person in charge of the Qianjiang Gang is dead, it is clear who did it.
Of course, among them, Lin Huo'er's little Jiujiu, Qingcong's hexagram, Captain Ge's secret, Hailan Danzong's horizontal insertion, the attack of the Crocodile Dragon King, Jiang Ning's resistance, and Lu Yun's thoughts all sank to the bottom of the river with the Guangfulou ship, and with Baiquan's current power, it was impossible to find out.
As for the return of Dansha to Jinzhu, he just guessed it correctly by mistake.
Of course, all this is not something that he Baiquan needs to think about, he only knows that his people are dead, and the things he wants are gone, so this time, he wants to get these things back from Jinzhu doubly.
The wooden order to enter the city, others did not have it, but he Baiquan did.
The reason is also very simple, Dansha, as an extremely valuable cargo, needs to be kept secret.
Naturally, it needs to be carried out on the Leaky Moon Ping, and even many times, this kind of thing is carried out secretly in the Fuyuan, and the time of shipment is still at night, and there is no wooden order, so it is necessary to have people from Jinzhu or Qianjiang Gang wait for a long time at the door, which is obviously very easy to be noticed by people with intentions.
Therefore, the Bamboo King simply gave them a wooden order for one of the gang leaders and three helmsmen at that time, and now, this wooden order has become a pass for Baiquan to enter the Golden Bamboo!
After entering the city, Bai Quan moved a little, took Bai Feng'er, and went directly to the Leaky Moon Ping.
The sound waves containing murderous intent and anger slowly spread out on the Leaky Moon Flat.
"Jinzhu, get out of here!"
"Jinzhu, get out of here!"
This loud shout echoed throughout the Leaky Moon Flat, and even many of the people in the Golden Bamboo King City under the mountain heard it in their ears.
All the people were indignant, and the man scolded their bamboo king, and he did not call him by his name, but crowned it with the name of the golden bamboo, and the meaning of humiliation was overflowing.
It's just that in the restoration of the garden, there is still no response.
