The daylight shimmered, like a blazing lamp, hanging brightly overhead, without half a minute of obstruction.

"Mother, where can people live in this place!" came the sound of cursing and grumbling from the group that was walking along the stone wall, but was actually close to crawling.

The people next to him would remind each other not to say much when they heard it before, but as they came along the way, they were all like this, and no one cared whether they should complain like this anymore.

Because now everyone's heart is full of doubts about whether this is really a stronghold of the Rogues.

The mountain road of Huzui Mountain is different from the mountain road next to it.

Ordinary mountain roads are hidden in dense forests, even if the mountains and rocks stumble, or even the slope is a little higher, but it also allows people to be shaded, and it is still easy to walk.

But now this road to Huzui Mountain, who would have thought that it would be so weird.

The mountain was like a pillar of optimus stuck straight into the ground out of thin air, and there was no way to go except for the trail that was wrapped around the mountain like a long snake.

What's even more frustrating is that in the past, several people could go in parallel, but in the end, because the road was unprotected, the mountain road became narrower and narrower, and it was only enough for one person to walk alone.

On one side is a stone wall of gravel discing, and on the other side is an abyss that cannot be seen, and there are those who are timid, and even walk on the stone wall with trembling legs.

In addition, because the road is on the stone wall, with the change of the sun, all the shade of the trees is left on the stone wall, and the soldiers are stunned by the sun with white flowers on their heads, and their eyes are not fully open.

In this way, the march for a whole morning was not half as fast as it had been yesterday evening.

In addition to that incident last night, some people thought that this trip would definitely be able to wipe out the rogues who had been harmed for many years, but now, most of this idea has been in vain.

Rao is a well-trained soldier has to be so frightened since then, not to mention those scattered rogues, how capable must they be to survive in this kind of place where people do not live, and can still go down the mountain from time to time to kill people and steal goods?

However, even though the soldiers all thought so, the second prince Huashuo did not move at all, and his faith was firm and indomitable.

Looking at the second prince who was holding a "big" character on the mountain rock, with two ropes tied around his waist, and was held in the hands of the two guards before and after, the attendants on the side couldn't hold back anymore, and said in a trembling voice:

"Your Highness, this mountain road is so difficult to walk, but what's wrong...... Your body is expensive, but this place is full of weirdness, so it's better to ......"

After last night's experience, even if there is a powerless woman standing in front of her at this moment, she can really be a husband.

Hua Shuo naturally had doubts in his heart, but remembering the message from Guo Ping earlier, he still trembled and stretched out a free hand, wiped the sweat on his face, and shouted: "What's weird! What's wrong?! If anyone doesn't want to go, His Highness will kick him down and let him take the easy road." ”

Although Asus's body was shaking, and the words were a little weaker because he hadn't drunk water for a long time and his imperceptible apprehension, no one would doubt the authenticity of this sentence.

Therefore, as soon as these words came out, the people around them were silent, even if they were good words and persuasions before, they were suffocated back into their stomachs, and they didn't dare to say more.

Hearing the movement ahead, Zhou Yang, who was walking in the middle of the team, sneered disdainfully: "There is something good on this Huzui Mountain, which is worthy of his life to go, even the old woman will not stop him." ”

Mama Mei's origin, as early as when Zhao Yi got the news, he had already given Zhou Yang a little bit of curiosity about Mama Mei, thinking that he would wait and see what she was capable of.

Who would have thought that this old woman would have risked her life with that kid from Asus.

If it is said that Huashuo ignored it in order to gain back the face he had lost in front of the emperor before, and was carried away by this news that came from nowhere, then why is Mama Mei, a bystander who came with Su Guifei's entrustment, not the authorities but confused?

With the second prince on such a rampage, are you really not afraid of playing too much?

Zhou Yang guessed like this, but how did he know that Mama Mei was also frightened at the moment.

At first, when she heard what Hua Shuo said in the big tent of Xishan, she felt that since all the things on the mountain had been arranged, no matter how bad it was, at least it would not make people feel that the second prince's trip was in vain.

But who would have thought that ASUS would hide the vital terrain of Huzui Mountain from himself.

Speaking of her own mistakes, she has never seen such a strange and strange mountain road as Huzui Mountain after walking outside for all these years.

By the time she reacted, she was halfway through the journey, like an ant roasted on a fire, unable to get up or down.

Especially when Asus arranged all his subordinates at the front of the team, he didn't say that he would evacuate, and the forces of the Xishan Army behind him would not leave him alone to play here.

She is good at work and scheming, but at this moment, in this place where the world should not be, in this place where Asus does not even have the patience to listen to her details, for a while, Mama Mei actually gave birth to a powerful frustration that has nowhere to go.

……

Compared with the people on the mountain road, Luan Ge and Zhao Yi are obviously much more relaxed.

Walking in the mountains and forests, Zhao Yi looked at the place behind him that was getting farther and farther away from him, and looked confused: "Isn't Huzui Mountain over there? Why are we going in the opposite direction?"

"What they walked was the front mountain of Huzui Mountain, but in fact, the back mountain of this mountain is the real entrance and exit. Luan Ge didn't stand tall under his feet, and used the wooden stick he had temporarily intercepted in his hand to stir the grass, and walked forward among the half-human-high jungles.

"Qianshan?" Zhao was also a little surprised.

If the mountain behind them is the front mountain, then the back mountain should not be farther behind them?

"On this mountain, there is a phantom array. The wooden stick in the Luan singer struck the stone beside her, making a thick sound, and she said as she walked, "I didn't find it when I came before, thinking that all the mountains were the high mountains that looked like pillars. ”

Saying that, she stopped and looked at Zhao Yi: "But have you ever thought about it, if it is really only that mountain, why is such a unique existence not mentioned by anyone? ”

Zhao Yi couldn't help frowning.

Luan Ge is right, the life of the local people in Xishan is quite closed, but there is trade in the southwest region, so that there are a lot of exchanges here, people who have lived here for generations, always like to sit in the teahouse after dinner, listen to those merchants who come and go here to tell the story of the outside, and also like to boast about the new things in Xishan to outsiders in the restaurant and tea shop.

There is no reason why such a different mountain exists, but no one is talking about it.

In this way, there is only one possibility, that is, this Huzui Mountain is not so unique.

Luan Ge remembered what he heard when he was in town to inquire about Huzui Mountain.

Nowadays, when people in Xishan County hear people mention Huzui Mountain, they will only describe it as barren and barren - this mountain is high on the ground, but at a glance it is so barren that there is no grass or trees, like a bald mountain.

A mountain without plants is a barren mountain and a bald mountain, and a mountain without prey is a waste mountain and a dead mountain.

In the face of such a mountain with no value in existence, even if it is very dangerous, it is only an existence that is not worth mentioning, especially in front of outsiders.

"The Huzui Mountain that people mention now refers to the Optimus Pillar, but in fact, the real Huzui Mountain is the entire Huzui Mountain Range. Luan Ge continued to walk forward, but the narration did not stop.

This was already a hundred years ago in the West Mountain.

"The earliest Hubi Mountain is actually a mountain shaped like a teapot, and its most prominent place is the pillar of the spout that reaches into the sky, so it is called Hubi Mountain. But a hundred years ago, there was a ground movement in the West Mountain. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yi nodded: "I once saw a book in my father's study, which recorded this ground movement in Xishan. That was before Emperor Gaozu did not establish the Jin Kingdom. The previous dynasty was still in power by a woman named Luan Jing. ”

"Empress?" said Luan Geqi.

Chu Yuan, the emperor of Chu State, was a woman, and that was a hundred years ago, when Chu Luo's bow and arrow were on the crape myrtle symbol, she still remembered, it was said that it was the symbol of Yunyang Mountain, and it was precisely because of the crape myrtle symbol that she targeted Su Yueling.

Chu has an empress, and now the Jin Kingdom, no, it should be the former dynasty of the Jin Kingdom, and there are also empresses, could it be said that women were popular as emperors in those years?

Otherwise, in this place where male power is supreme, the empress is too rare.

However, Zhao Yi shook his head and said: "It's not an empress, it's just a concubine - it's a bit similar to your name, but her name is Luan Jing, and she is the empress of Emperor Qianyuan of the previous dynasty." It is said that the commoners got up, there was no power, but it was quite popular in the previous dynasty, and some people even made a statue of Guanyin for her to worship, so it is also called Luan Jing Niangniang. ”

Luan Ge's face was a little strange: "It's also Luan Bird's Luan?"

"Yes, Luan Bird's Luan. Zhao Yi nodded and continued: "At that time, the emperor favored Luan Jing, and even dismissed the harem for her, and the ministers of the court and the central government jointly impeached, and some people even accused this queen of being a demon queen and a disaster to the country, but was ordered by Emperor Qianyuan to be beheaded all over the house, and no one dared to speak out since then. ”

After this incident, Emperor Qianyuan only felt that the queen was weak, so he continued to give power to the queen. Due to Luan Jing's repeated assassinations, Emperor Qianyuan even allowed her to raise her own private soldiers, and allocated her a special escort army that only obeyed her. ”

Zhao Yi sighed, I don't know if it was out of emotion about the rumors that were almost a story, or because of the sigh that Emperor Qianyuan had forgotten the country's capital.

But the steps did not stop, and his narration did not end: "Later, Emperor Qianyuan was seriously ill, and Empress Luanjing reviewed the folds on behalf of the emperor. Interestingly, at that time, Luan Jing asked people to bring a message to the minister, saying, 'Master Li doesn't eat duck tongue on weekdays, so you might as well taste your tongue to return the taste.' ’”

Hearing this, even Luan Ge couldn't help frowning, not knowing whether it was difficult to look directly at the duck tongue from now on, or it was difficult to agree with the queen's behavior.

Zhao Yi watched Luan Gedi's movements stop, took the initiative to take the wooden stick from her hand, and moved the grass on the side along the direction of travel: "Until then, everyone knew that Master Li, who was known for his honesty and thrift, turned out to be a big corrupt official who hunted for money and collected money. For a while, the people in the court were panicked, and everyone wanted to accuse the queen of cruelty, but they were afraid that their handle would fall into the hands of the queen and become the next person to swallow the tongue. And after this incident, the queen's reputation among the people increased. Even Emperor Qianyuan seems to have the intention of passing on the throne to the empress, so that she can come to the court as the empress. ”

"Did anything bad happen after that?" Luan Ge asked suddenly.

Chu Yuan, Emperor Chu Luo, was a woman in power, but the Chu State not only did not fall down, but instead opened a new prosperous era, allowing descendants to guard the large area west of Yunyang Mountain, and it is still worshiped by the Chu people.

If this Queen Luanjing is the same, then she is another Chu Yuan Emperor, and she is so bold and heroic, she will never let the later Jin take her place.

Now everyone only knows the Great Jin Dynasty but does not know Luan Jing, it must be because Emperor Qianyuan's plan fell through.

"Then it was the site that moved. Zhao Yi sighed and said: "That field moved, the entire southwest all fell, for some reason, the people suddenly came out of the news, saying that this southwest movement is actually a punishment from God, because the queen's dictatorship finally provoked the wrath of heaven." As soon as the news came out, the government and the opposition were in an uproar. But no matter how it was contained, it was always to no avail, but it became more and more intense, and Emperor Qianyuan's condition gradually worsened. ”

At that time, the hundred officials boycotted the dynasty, and Emperor Qianyuan had no choice but to change the order, and passed the decree to pass the throne to the five princes who were only children at that time, but the queen must listen to the government, and ordered four ministers to assist the young emperor until the five princes were crowned pro-government. Who would have thought that the queen refused to hang the curtain, but instead went to the southwest with her own guards despite the opposition. ”

"I didn't go back. The southwest was reborn, and the queen and the guards she took out were all gone, and they couldn't be found anymore - besides, at that time, everyone in the court had no energy and no heart to find this unpopular queen anymore. ”

"Is it because at this time, Emperor Taizu of the Jin Kingdom initiated a mutiny?" Luan Ge asked.

Zhao was also choked by Luan Ge's statement.

It's been a long time since he'd heard anyone say that about the past.

At that time, Emperor Taizu was just a defender of the southeast of the Jin Kingdom against the Japanese thieves.

At that time, the southwest was moving, and the Qi country in the north was also about to move, wanting to unite with the small border countries to take advantage of the situation.

The Northeast was in urgent need of support, so it was originally taken advantage of the fact that there were many floods at sea at that time, and it was not suitable for the thieves to come west, so he ordered the southeast Hua to transfer troops to help the Northeast garrison.

Who would have thought that the Hua family army that took the Central Plains attacked the national capital by the way, and under the pretext of the Qing monarch, the four ministers were all eradicated, and the young emperor passed the throne to the head of the Hua family, and changed the country name to Jin, which was the Taizu of Jin.

Later, because the northeast defenders had no reinforcements, the north lost ten cities in a row, and Hua could not bear the notoriety, and finally used the young emperor's summoning order as an excuse to change his name to Beijing.

Later, it was only when Emperor Gaozu was Emperor Gaozu that the ten cities were recovered, and the reputation of the imperial family was slowly recognized.

But in any case, using the word "mutiny" to describe the events of that year is still a royal taboo.

After groaning, Luan Ge asked softly: "Then later, didn't Taizu look for the queen and the personal guard she brought out?"
