53. Who is the Yellow Sparrow?
Chapter 53. Who is the Yellow Sparrow?
Jun Xuan looked at the emperor in surprise, and repeated with some uncertainty: "Senior brother? β
Jun Jianyu smiled slightly, turned his head and suddenly said, "Isn't City Lord Ye going to come out yet?" β
The candlelight in the Taihe Hall was flickered in a moment, and in the blink of an eye, a man dressed in white and holding a sword slowly came from the darkness.
- Ye Gucheng.
The moment he saw Ye Gucheng, Jun Xuan's breath stagnated. Ye Gucheng also looked at Jun Xuan with a very deep gaze, there was unbearability, relief, and distress for the little girl in front of him, but there was no anger that was hidden. Such a gaze made Jun Xuan breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't know what to say.
The hometown is even more timid, Ye Gucheng is clearly Jun Xuan's closest person, but that's it, many times Jun Xuan doesn't know how to repay this closeness and connivance.
She is the youngest daughter of Emperor Xuanwu of Mingde and the daughter of Concubine Hua Tingge. She is the Emperor of Yong'an, who has never appeared in front of people, and she is also the heavenly favored person of pure yang. However, if Jun Xuan is allowed to choose by herself, the identity she really wants and admits from the bottom of her heart is only Ye Gucheng's junior sister, the future Mrs. Ye.
Jun Jianyu broke the gaze between Ye Gucheng and Jun Xuan, his gaze crossed from Xiao Daogu, and finally fixed on Ye Gucheng. This Ninety-Five Venerable looked at Ye Gucheng and said meaninglessly: "Ye City Lord, they all say that the woman's heart is outward, and my seventeenth sister-in-law actually punished me for you." β
Although Ye Gucheng's ancestors are also nobles of the heavenly family, today's Ye Gucheng is a white cloth. But Rao is like this, he looks at the current lord of the world, and he does not lose his momentum at all. Hearing Jun Jianyu's words, Ye Gucheng had a smile in his eyes. He walked over and held the little girl's hand, and said to Jun Jianyu: "Xuan'er is short." β
Yes, Jun Xuan protects the short. For her, Baiyun City is her home. And Ye Gucheng is the family that really grew up with her, and it is the storage that she is really willing to protect as a blade.
As for this high imperial power, for Jun Xuan, it is just a burden - royal blood, a pure yang, and the lord of the hidden door. Each of these things is not what Jun Xuan wants. It's just that "the mandate of heaven is given to me, and I will bear it".
Jun Jianyu is really going to sigh this time. He leaned on the armrest of the dragon chair, raised his hand to cover his forehead, shook his head and said, "I really don't know, when the emperor let the seventeenth sister-in-law enter the pure yang, and the head of the Chongyi Dao let her grow by your side, this is fortunate or unfortunate. β
Ye Gucheng and Jun Xuan didn't speak, but a middle-aged man in a pure white robe with blue stripes floated in.
"Of course it's a blessing."
Everyone looked at it, and the person who came was the Chongyi Daoist who disappeared after Wei Junxuan sent the Chixiao Red Lotus that day.
Chongyi Dao was outside the square, and he did not salute Jun Jianyu. He looked at Jun Xuan and Ye Gucheng, and said to the emperor leisurely: "Twenty years ago, the master calculated that the alien star had returned, and the fortunes of Da'an were all in that person's heart. Although the alien star does not have resentment, it is angry and angry, and it relies on the sword momentum of heaven and earth, taking the lead, and its light is afraid of rushing to Ziwei. β
As he spoke, Daoist Chongyi glanced at Ye Gucheng quietly, and the clarity in his eyes made Ye Gucheng secretly frightened. He had seen Taiyin Zhenren, and at first he only felt that the elder's internal strength and swordsmanship were mediocre, although Ye Gucheng also respected her, but he never thought that she would be able to reveal his biggest secret.
Twenty years ago, wasn't it when Ye Gucheng had just been reborn? So who can the so-called alien star be if he is not?
"The Lord of the Hidden Gate will produce pure yang, but it will also produce the blood of the emperor." The head of the Okiyi Dao told the Lonely City the biggest secret of Pure Yang and the royal family.
Pure Yang needs to be worshiped by the royal family before he can recuperate. But the royal family is not stupid, and they cannot support an organization that is useless to them, or even a hidden threat.
However, the children of Chunyang disdained to become royal lackeys, and after some discussion, Chunyang and the royal family took a step back from each other. The royal family sent their children to Chunyang to be taught. The selected children are less than a month old when they enter the pure yang, and they grow up with ordinary pure yang children on weekdays and receive general teaching.
And the hidden gate will be inherited by these pure yang disciples with royal blood.
ββTaught by Chunyang since childhood, they always abide by the principle of "hidden doors for the people", but they don't really ignore the affairs of the court. If someone rebels, they will investigate those in power, and if they are virtuous, the hidden door will kill the troublemaker. If the monarch is not virtuous, the hidden door will only protect the well-being of the people, regardless of the change of dynasty.
This is a selfish and selfless gamble, taking the world as a bet, testing the character and ethics of each hidden door master. Fortunately, Chunyang has never had a favoritist master, and the name of Chunyang and the righteousness of the hidden door have not been negative.
Unexpectedly, the little girl he had been holding in the palm of his hand would suffer such an inner torment, Ye Gucheng unconsciously clenched Jun Xuan's hand.
Daoist Chongyi also looked at Jun Xuan and continued: "The alien star came into the world, and the Ziwei Emperor Star was originally the only one of the dead. However, the master calculated day and night, and finally found the person who broke the situation after five years. β
"That person is my seventeenth sister-in-law, Taiyin Zhenren once said that only this girl is the only one who inherits the memory of the sky, and can go around for the two in Ziwei and the alien star, and break the fateful situation." The emperor sighed, and there was a hint of coldness in his voice: "If it weren't for the fact that the seventeenth sister-in-law was the Heavenly Favored One of the Pure Yangs, how could my grandfather be willing to let her be sent out of the palace before she was less than a month?" β
Using a wide sleeved robe to hide the trembling of his hands, the emperor's gaze became a little distant and abrupt: "She is the daughter of Concubine Yi and the treasure of her grandfather's heart." If it weren't for the national fortune of Da'an, the seventeenth sister-in-law would have grown up as a princess and was pampered by thousands of people, and she should have been under the knees of her parents. "It's not that it's floating now.
What the emperor didn't say was that if Jun Xuan was not a heavenly favor, if Jun Xuan could grow up in this palace, maybe ...... Maybe his grandmother wouldn't have died in her thirties after three years of hard work after losing her daughter, and his grandfather wouldn't have spent three months taking care of state affairs and then going with his grandmother.
Thinking of the old matter between Concubine Yi and Emperor Wu, a touch of melancholy also appeared on the face of Daoist Chongyi. He walked over and gently touched his little apprentice's head, but said to the eldest apprentice: "If you want to give up the idea of restoring the country as a teacher, with the righteousness of a gentleman, are you willing?" β
"I don't want to."
"If you have the friendship of master and apprentice, would you like it?"
Ye Gucheng's eyebrows trembled slightly, and he said, "Jue Fei...... Unwilling! β
"With Juehui's please, you, are you willing?" Daoist Chongyi looked at Ye Gucheng calmly, as if they were not facing each other in the Taihe Hall now, but were discussing the Tao of Panasonic of Sword Peak as in the old days.
This time, Ye Gucheng was finally moved. His eyes fell on the little girl who had been looking at him a little nervously, and with a slight force in his hand, he took the person into his arms, but said to the emperor who had been looking down on them: "The peace of a country is entrusted to a woman, and this is the way of a king, and Da'an can last for a long time?" β
This is already a provocation, but Jun Jianyu slapped his face.
"City Lord Ye is really guts." He sneered: "Lord Yecheng's swordsmanship is superb, and the tens of thousands of forbidden troops in Ouchi are not vegetarians. City Lord Ye is like this, isn't he afraid that there will be no return? β
Ye Gucheng lowered his eyes, hiding the golden light in his amber eyes. In the flash of lightning, he had already drawn his sword!
This sword is unstoppable, Jun Xuan, who is held in his arms, can't, and neither can Chongyi Dao Chief, who is three steps away from him. Even the emperor himself, who was already a master of using swords, couldn't!
The emperor could only watch the sword sweep straight towards him, and the arrogant and sharp sword qi pierced the human skin and face. It's just that after that sword, the emperor himself was unharmed.
The pressure of that sword made the emperor involuntarily turn white, and after finding that he was not injured, he stood up a little strangely. The moment he stood up, the dragon chair under him suddenly sank down. When he looked closely, the four legs of the dragon chair were neatly cut off by Ye Gucheng's sword, and the four legs were cut off exactly where they were cut off, so that the gilded chair did not look unusual.
The sword was originally an upright soldier, and it was able to avoid the sword stabbed by the emperor himself, and the accuracy of Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship was so accurate that it had reached the terrifying Cheng dΓΉ.
The emperor is the emperor in the end, he quickly reacted. The pale face gradually recovered, Jun Jianyu slowly sat back in the chair, and sneered at Ye Gucheng: "Although the Lord of Ye City is a god soldier, is Baiyun City also impregnable?" The lord of the city can escape and ascend to heaven alone, and will he ignore your people? I only need a holy oracle, and your century-old foundation of Baiyun City will be flattened! β
Ye Gucheng glanced up at the emperor and said, "The city of Baiyun City will be destroyed when it is broken, and the Da'an Sea will be cut off. β
The ancestors of the Ye family chose Feixian Island as the location of Baiyun City, precisely because they saw the topography of Da'an. Da'an has a vast territory, and the whole looks like a big gourd, and Feixian Island is the narrowest part of this big gourd. In addition to this place, Da'an has repeatedly sent ships to explore new routes, but the ships sent have all been crushed in the storm.
And once the city of Baiyun City is broken, the Ye family has its own means to destroy this only way.
At that time, the only consequence of the destruction of Baiyun City was that Da'an lost the other half of the country.
Ye Gucheng was reborn, it is precisely because of this, with many years of vigorous development of shipping between the two places, now Feixian Island is not only the only fortress to communicate the north and south, but also an important hub for economic exchanges between the north and the south.
It can be said that although Baiyun City is far away in the South China Sea, it directly chokes Da'an's throat.
What Ye Gucheng could think of, the emperor may not have thought of it before, so he was not prepared. But now after confronting Ye Gucheng, he is already sober.
Taking a deep breath, the emperor changed his words and smiled kindly at Ye Gucheng: "Why should City Lord Ye scare my seventeenth sister-in-law, if the city lord is really rebellious, how could he have informed me of the conspiracy of the Pingnan Wangfu early in the morning, and let the Ouchi secret guard follow the city lord to collect evidence of the rebellion of the Nanwang Mansion?" β
This time, he changed his address back to "I". Whether Jun Jianyu wants to admit it or not, now that he is reasonable, he can't move Ye Gucheng. Not only can he not move, but he also has to reward his deeds.
As he spoke, the emperor clapped his hands and beckoned a man with ordinary eyebrows. Pointing at this man, the emperor said to Jun Xuan: "Seventeen sister-in-law, look at it, isn't this the new attendant of your senior brother?" β
The man named by the emperor didn't dare to raise his head, and only bowed to Jun Xuan: "The fifth son of the minister's dark department has seen Emperor Yong'an." β
Shadows. When Jun Xuan heard this name, his expression moved slightly. However, she didn't say anything more, just nodded to the kneeling man and told him to get up.
At this point, she understood. Her senior brother has his own plans, and the reason why he has been with the father and son of King Pingnan has been in conflict with him before is because he has long been in contact with Jinshang. The big stone in his heart finally fell, and Jun Xuan reached out and grabbed the corner of Ye Gucheng's clothes.
At this moment, the sky is about to dawn.
The emperor looked up at the bright moon that was about to be full in the sky, waved his hand to everyone, and said, "You should not stay here for a long time. If the seventeenth sister-in-law doesn't want to live in the palace, go back with the city lord Ye. β
"The matter here has come to fruition, and the poor road will return to pure yang."
Daoist Chongyi also said a word, and then took Jun Xuan and Ye Gucheng one step ahead and left. Jun Xuan and Ye Gucheng didn't stay longer, and after signaling to the emperor, they turned into two afterimages.
A night of turmoil, in the blink of an eye, there is only one day left before the fifteenth covenant.
