Chapter 30: The Black Hand Emerges
For the first time since the founding of the Great Xia Empire, this situation was encountered, and almost all important civilian and military generals were assassinated. Although most of them didn't succeed, but they were also panicked, you think, even when you go to the toilet, you have to guard against the sudden attack of the assassin in the toilet, which official can still handle official business calmly and seriously.
Therefore, in desperation, after consulting with the ministers, Emperor Xia Mingyuan issued a requisition order to the various gate factions, requiring the gate factions to send experts to guard various important officials, if these officials are assassinated, the Great Xia Kingdom will be in civil strife, and if it is not attacked by itself, there will be a crisis of losing the country.
When all this happened, the Lan Hai Kingdom, as an ally, did not send troops to help, but took a wait-and-see attitude, and deployed heavy troops on the border with the Great Xia Kingdom, which is really incredible.
The army of the Red Sun Kingdom was blocked by Shangguan Qingyun in Lieyang City, so he sent Wu Tongchang, the governor of the right army, to lead 500,000 elite soldiers to attack the Great Xia Kingdom along another route, and also conquered the two cities.
Xia Youlan, the seventh princess of the Great Xia Kingdom, took the initiative to ask for battle, and the emperor had no other way, so he agreed to the seventh princess. Let Xia Youlan lead the Piaoxiang Legion among the four major legions to stop Wu Tongchang. The commander of the Piaoxiang Legion is none other than Xia Youlan.
Xia Youlan is nineteen years old, has been extremely intelligent since she was a child, and studied under the most mysterious organization in the Great Xia Kingdom, the owner of the Shenyin Building, Tianmeng Zhenren, and learned a good martial arts, and is proficient in Wentao martial arts and military strategy, and arranging troops. At the age of fifteen, he led the Predator Legion to successfully repel the invasion of the Red Sun Kingdom, won the title of the beautiful god of war, and officially took over the position of Marshal of the Predator Legion, and renamed the Predator Legion the Fragrance Legion.
Emperor Xia Mingyuan of the Great Xia Kingdom has thirteen princes and princesses under his knees, but his favorite is the seventh princess Xia Youlan, not only because the mother of the seventh princess is his favorite concubine, Xia Youlan has been particularly sensible and popular since she was a child, and the palace maids, eunuchs and guards in the palace especially like her. When she grew up, the seventh princess had both ability and political integrity, was knowledgeable, and could stand alone. Xia Mingyuan often lamented that the seventh princess was a daughter, and if it was a man, the Great Xia Kingdom would have another virtuous monarch in the future. The current crown prince was born to the empress's mother, but he was frail and sickly, relying on medicinal stones all day long, and none of the other princes could take on the heavy responsibility, which made Emperor Xia Mingyuan distressed.
Xia Youlan deserves to be known as the god of war, and with 200,000 troops, she successfully blocked Wu Tongchang's 500,000 army outside Haoyue City. The two sides fought several times, and each time the Red Sun Kingdom ended in failure, even Wu Tongchang, a veteran of the battlefield, admired Xia Youlan. If you can't beat it head-on, it will be dark, the assassins sent by the Red Sun Kingdom to assassinate Xia Youlan twice in a row, but they were repelled by the royal guards around Xia Youlan, and there were only three of the royal guards of more than a dozen people, but Xia Youlan strategized and didn't care about life and death at all.
The Red Sun Country, in the resplendent palace.
At the top of the dragon chair sat a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe and a dragon crown on his head, looking down and flipping through several copies of the book. In front of the Long Shu case stood a thin old man in an official uniform, looking respectful.
It was Yelu Hongji, the emperor of the Red Sun Kingdom, who was watching the twists and turns, and slowly raised his head, and the majesty brought by him made the waist of the thin old man bend even more, "Xia Youlan is really not simple, Wu Tongchang's progress is too slow." It seems that it is time to activate that person, after so many years, he should have set up more or less the same over there. ”
The thin old man said, "Your Majesty, after so many years, can he still listen to you?"
"Are you afraid that he will rebel? Although he has long been rebellious, how can I not be unprepared, his every move is under my control. If he is obedient and obedient, I will not bother with him, otherwise I will ......"
"The emperor is wise, and the ministers are too worried", the thin old man slapped a little fart.
Yelu Hongji smiled slightly, "You, after so many years, why can't you change this sycophancy." ”
"Weichen only shoots the emperor alone, and others don't deserve to let Weichen shoot. ”
"Hahaha...... Whatever you want. Tomorrow you will personally take the Killer Battalion to Haoyue City to assist him in completing his mission. If you find out that he has bad intentions, you ...... You can cut it first and then play it". Yelu Hongji said lightly.
The thin old man's body shook, and a monstrous wave surged in his heart, but it returned to its original state in a moment, "The minister obeys the order." ”
"Alright, you go down. ”
"Obey the order", the thin old man turned around and walked out of the main hall.
As soon as he walked out of the main hall, a man in black instantly knelt down beside the dragon book case, Yelu Hongji seemed to have known that the man in black was coming, and he didn't panic at all, "How about those people?"
"Back to the emperor, they play in the imperial capital every day, and occasionally go out of the city to hunt, without any abnormality. The man in black replied respectfully.
"Well, you guys continue to keep an eye on it, don't get noticed by them, and if you find anything suspicious, report back in time. Jeruhman commanded.
"Obey".
Yelu Hongji waved his hand, and the man in black kowtowed, and disappeared again in an instant, as if he had never appeared.
Who are these people? What kind of heart did they help me so much? Not only are they highly cultivated, but they are also very powerful behind them, and they can even make Lan Haiguo stand still. It can also drive the sand pirates of the Doomsday Desert. When I destroy the Great Xia Kingdom, they will only take away one thing that is kept by the various sects of the Great Xia Kingdom, and what is more important than the country. Don't try to do anything wrong with my Red Sun Country. Jelu Hongji rubbed his temples.
Spring is coming, a hundred flowers are blooming, and a hundred birds are singing. There were a few white clouds floating in the clear sky, and everything seemed so beautiful. But spring is the season of sowing, but there is no half figure in the endless fields, and the pedestrians on the road are carrying large bags and small bags, walking in a hurry, silent, as if they are fleeing.
A group of horses galloped on the wide official road, and a beautiful woman in her forties waved her hand, "Slow down so as not to hurt pedestrians." The whole team suddenly slowed down and moved slowly. These people are the disciples of the Sword Sect who rushed to the aid of Haoyue City. The leader is the Great Elder Liu Ru, who has a good appearance and looks very young.
At the end of the procession, there were two white horses, and the two people sitting upright on the road made the eyes of the pedestrians on the side of the road brighten, and I saw a young scholar sitting on a white horse, wearing a blue robe, wearing a square scarf, hanging a long sword at his waist, his face was like a crown of jade, and his starry eyebrows were bright, and he was talking about something with his companions next to him.
On another white horse rode a beautiful girl in a moon-white dress, and the flowers on the side of the road were a little inferior to them. However, the whole person seems to come from an ancient iceberg, and it is extremely cold. It was only when he looked at the young scholar next to him that he revealed a little tenderness, revealing a smile that even the sun was ashamed of.
These two people are Ma Qingfeng and Hai Wushuang, the two have often talked together along the way, and an inexplicable affection that has existed for a long time continues to grow in the hearts of the two, and the two naturally fall at the end of the intimate conversation.
All this was seen by the other disciples. Both male and female disciples sighed in their hearts, they had no chance, they were talented and beautiful, and they were a natural pair.
Liu Ru was also very happy that Hai Wushuang had successfully broken through his cultivation and reached the realm of the ninth grade of the human level after Ma Qingfeng's guidance. In the future, becoming a prefecture-level martial artist is just around the corner. can be with Ma Qingfeng and have a good home, and he is the happiest master.
