Chapter 100: Civil Strife in Xijon (2)

"Thank you for your kindness, but it's been a long time since we've seen the Celestial Master. Since you are still unsure about the news of Princess Purple Smoke, then let's go and ask the Celestial Master! Chahar saw through the eldest prince's intentions at a glance and rejected the eldest prince's proposal. As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave, but he heard the eldest prince say, "Wait, the things you have sent from various departments recently don't seem to be very logarithmic." I remember that you fought against the Great Xia Dynasty before, and the captures you sent over were not so few. Lately, aren't your warriors working hard enough? Why don't we check it and see how much is missing, and your military slaves will fill the number! Hearing him mention the military slaves again, the faces of the leaders of the four major tribes became very ugly.

Xirong country is dominated by nomadic people, the entire Xirong country is composed of tribes on the grassland, among which the flying eagle tribe is the strongest, the largest number of people, so it firmly grasps the right to speak, several generations of Xirong lords are the leaders of the flying eagle tribe, in addition to the four larger tribes of the Ulan department, the Haizi department, the wolf tooth department and the black bear department, they formed an alliance with the flying eagle department, and together formed the head group of the Xirong country, the major events in the country are often discussed by the leaders of the five major tribes, Then the leader of the Flying Eagle Clan, that is, the lord of Xirong, made the final decision. In addition, there are many small scattered tribes that depend on these large tribes for survival. Among these five tribes, due to the absolute strength of the Flying Eagle Clan, it has formed a situation of dominance, and the other four tribes, because of the relationship of strength, the Ulan Department ranks first, the Wolf Tooth Department ranks second with bravery, the Black Bear Department and the Wolf Tooth Department are comparable, and the Haizi Department is slightly weaker. The four major tribes often fight with each other over territory and water plants, but under the tough rule of the Flying Eagle Clan, there is still a superficial peace.

"The eldest prince, the security on the Xijing side has been very tight recently, and almost all the people of Great Xia close to the border have fled the border. We can't go out and meet anyone, we can't grab anything. Moreover, the weather is very cold now, and the cattle and sheep of our tribe also have to prepare for the transfer, which requires manpower. Otherwise, many cattle and sheep will freeze to death, and we will not be able to survive the winter. So. We haven't been out much lately, so we haven't seized much. However, after this winter, we will all breathe a sigh of relief. With the newborn lamb, we will surely give you some more as compensation. "Among the four tribes, Mo Sang, the leader of the Haizi tribe, is a little old, and he is the most timid, and when he heard the words of the eldest prince, he couldn't help but explain and plead with him." People of the Great Xia Dynasty. No matter how tightly guarded, how powerful can it be? Don't forget, I went out with you before, and those Xia Dynasty people heard our whistle from a distance and ran away. How can you still defend? Don't think you can fool me if I don't go out lately. Okay, every month, you will hand over to me as much food and jewelry as you want, and you will not lose at all. If it's not enough, it will be converted from the military slaves! Mo Sang, I heard that your daughter Yunzhu has grown into a great beauty. If you let her be my tenth concubine, don't count the military slaves of your tribe. Hearing him mention his beloved daughter Yunzhu, Mo Sanqi's face changed.

"Your Highness, Yunzhu has already set up a marriage affair for her, and I really can't break the marriage contract. Please forgive your Highness! Mo Sang held back his anger and knelt down to plead with the eldest prince. Either you send Yunzhu over, or you obediently go back to prepare for the military slaves. Now that the Great Xia Dynasty has sent a prince over there to garrison it, I'm afraid that ordinary women won't be able to see it yet. Go back and pick a good pick, you have to be a virgin around fourteen years old, and you have to look outstanding! Hearing his request, Mo Sang was about to speak. but he was pulled out of the ground. "In the past, when the king was here, he treated us as brothers, and he said that the Flying Eagle Clan and our four clans were all the sons of the same Khan, and we could all treat each other as equals. Why do you kneel down to him now? What's more, he hasn't taken out the king's edict until now? Without the king's edict, our lord of Xirong should be a hero elected by all five of our tribes! "The man who pulled Moisan up from the ground in a fit of rage was Alashan, the leader of the Wolf Tooth Tribe. The position of the lord of Xijon has always been a hero promoted by various tribes. But. Since these generations of lords are the leaders of the Flying Eagle Clan, the recent generations of lords have the rule of issuing edicts to determine the heirs. If there is no heir to the throne, the next ruler is to be elected by the chiefs of the various clans. to show that all the tribes are subject together. Now Alxa is talking about the eldest prince's heart disease. Although he is now ruling over all the tribes, he has never openly claimed the title of king, because he cannot produce the edict of the previous king, and he cannot reasonably get the leaders of the various tribes to publicly elect him as the lord of the country. Speaking of bravery and good fighting, it was actually Nadaru, who was assassinated by Xia Ci before, the most powerful. When it comes to martial arts, archery is the first, and Xirong is recognized as the first is Meng Dan next to Ziyan. It's just that now Nadaru has been killed, and Mundan, who disappeared ten years ago. Therefore, he temporarily took charge of Xijon on the basis that he was the only one who was by the king's side when the king died, and that he had the king's oral succession, and that he was the king's nephew. However, in the end, the name is not justified, and he still does not dare to openly claim the king.

Alxa's long tiger's back is bear's waist, and at this moment he has angry eyebrows, and he is not a good kind at first glance. He has always been like a raging fire, and he has long been indignant at the oppression of other clans by the Flying Eagle Clan led by the eldest prince. It's just that I haven't found an opportunity to vent. At this moment, hearing the eldest prince's unscrupulous bullying of Mo Sang, he really couldn't bear it, and finally said what he had been saying all along. Hearing Alxa's resistance, the eldest prince was immediately angry and shouted: "Alxa, it's against you!" How can you be honest about the affairs of the lord of the country? When the king died of illness, he offered to pass the throne to me! What edict are you proposing now, are you deliberately rebelling? He finished yelling, and then shouted loudly: "Come on, the wolf's tooth department Alxa is trying to rebel in vain, take him down for me!" All the people of the Wolf Tooth tribe will be slaves of our other four clans in the future! ”

With his shout, a group of well-armored soldiers rushed in from outside the temple, and in their hands were bright spears and arrows. Obviously, the eldest prince was prepared. Seeing such a situation, what did the leaders of the four major clans not understand about the ambition and motives of the eldest prince? Chahar and Mo Sang stood beside Alxa with their servants, and said angrily to the soldiers in the hall: "Our Ulan Department, Haizi Department and Wolf Tooth Department advance and retreat together!" If you want to kill today, the eldest prince, you will kill us all! Our people will avenge us! "Chahar is usually not on the same page as Alxa, and there are no fewer disputes between them Ulan and Wolf Tooth, but Chahar is a shrewd man, and as soon as the eldest prince speaks, he smells something unusual from his words. Now seeing the soldiers in the hall confirmed his suspicion, so he put aside his usual grudge with the wolf's fangs. Stood by Alxa's side. And Mo Sang of the Haizi Department has just been forced into a cornerhouse by the eldest prince, and Mo Sang is very grateful for Alxa's outspokenness. The men on the grassland all take righteousness very seriously. Alxa spoke up for him, and of course he would not ignore Alxa. So he quickly stood by Alxa's side. And the leader of the Black Bear Division, who had not said a word from entering the hall until this moment, glanced at the eldest prince. Glancing at the three people in the group again, he said angrily: "Don't forget our black bear department. No matter how powerful the Flying Eagle Department is, the four of us are not afraid of it when we join forces! Seeing this, the eldest prince sneered and said, "Speaking of which, the four of you are still full of unity. I've wanted to abolish you for a long time. Commanding the five divisions, Xijon has become more powerful. lest you have to point fingers every time I make a decree, and I will not be able to carry out my orders thoroughly! As he spoke, he made a killing gesture to the circle formed by the four men.

The sound of swords clashing was mixed with the sound of arrows breaking through the air, and the screams and cries of wounded people. All kinds of sounds have turned the originally quiet and solemn Xirong Palace into a hell on earth! Shen Rong never thought that she would see such a scene.

Fallen corpses, mutilated limbs, struggling wounded soldiers, blood everywhere. The smell of blood rushed through my nose. Shen Rong almost couldn't help but vomit. She felt like her tolerance was getting better. She would faint when she saw Meng Dan draw a knife before, but now she is still very sober when she sees such a bloody scene.

"Everyone, stop! Princess Purple Smoke has arrived! In the name of the Celestial Master, I command you to stop killing! "In the sword array, the voice of the shaman heavenly master was unusually loud, and it seemed to be full of magical power, so that everyone who listened to it couldn't help but stop moving." Kill me, kill them all! In the silence, the eldest prince's almost crazy voice sounded so harsh.

No one responded to his voice, and in front of the corpses all over the ground, the shaman had already recited the transcendent scriptures. His face was full of compassion and piety, and many people fell to their knees with him. "Rest in peace to the dead! You are all people of the steppe and do not deserve to die in fratricidal slaughter! May the Almighty God of the Prairie forgive you! The shaman's voice was full of compassion. Many of the people present bowed their heads deeply after hearing his words. Their belief in the Celestial Master as an oracle made them all feel guilty for their actions, and they soon surrendered to the majesty of the Celestial Master, hoping that they could atone for their sins in their lifetime.

The eldest prince felt a fire burning in his chest. Why. Why does he fall short every time! Last time, she was finally able to get rid of Ziyan and make herself the first heir to the throne, but she escaped. This time, he hollowed out his mind to get rid of the leaders of the four major tribes. Commanding the five divisions and giving himself complete control of Xirong, Ziyan is back! Damn Shaman Heavenly Master, every time he is on the side of the purple smoke! This time, Ziyan was able to escape from his hands, and the Eight Achievements were the ghost of this Heavenly Master. No wonder Sang Qing couldn't find them, who had the courage to search the Heavenly Master's Mansion? He should have thought of it a long time ago! This Heavenly Master, he should have killed him a long time ago! If he hadn't always wanted him to say that he was the son of the steppe and gain the worship of his clan, he would have done it a long time ago! However, it doesn't seem too late now, kill this damn Heavenly Master, and what he says is an oracle!

"Heavenly Master be careful!" Shen Rong sat on the brocade couch lifted by the four big men, and saw the strange behavior of the eldest prince for the first time. None of the people present thought that the eldest prince would dare to attack the Heavenly Master who everyone regarded as a god. For a moment, almost everyone was stunned on the spot, seeing that the eldest prince's sword was about to pierce into the chest of the Celestial Master. Suddenly, there was a "ding" sound, and the tip of the eldest prince's sword broke. Looking at the tip of the sword that had been broken for no reason, the eldest prince's hand trembled. How so? His sword was obviously still an inch away from piercing the Heavenly Master's chest, how could it suddenly break off? He didn't see the Celestial Master make a move at all, and the Celestial Master obviously didn't react. He was chanting for the deceased, as if he hadn't even noticed what was happening in front of him. "The true God has appeared! The Heavenly Master is guarded by a true god! "Almost everyone present was excited. Almost everyone present was excited. Their gaze toward the Celestial Master became even more eager. And Shen Rong, in the midst of the lightning and fire, seemed to see a familiar figure flashing by. She could barely believe her eyes. "Tell me, if the eldest prince offends the Heavenly Master, he offends the true God!" A familiar voice whispered in her ear, teaching her a word of Xijon. After she repeated it a few times in a low voice, she told her again: "Hurry up and shout again!" "If the eldest prince offends the Heavenly Master, he offends the true God!" Almost without thinking, Shen Rong shouted loudly.

Hearing Shen Rong's voice, the eldest prince's face suddenly turned pale. Is the Heavenly Master really blessed by a true god? He has sinned against the true God? The people present heard Shen Rong's voice and surrounded the eldest prince together. "He is a sinner, and we will arrest him and offer sacrifices to the true God to atone for his sins!" I don't know who shouted, and many people rushed up to the eldest prince.

"Sang Qing, Sang Qing, come and escort!" When the eldest prince was in a hurry, his first reaction was to call Sang Qing, who had been guarding him. But what answered him was Sang Qing's heavy fist. He couldn't believe his eyes, and before his body flew out, he saw the guards who usually guarded him, scrambling to come forward and add their legs and feet to him! "Don't kill him, it's useful to keep him!" In Shen Rong's ears, the familiar voice sounded again. She hurriedly pleaded with the Heavenly Master: "Heavenly Master, spare his life for the time being!" The Celestial Master closed his eyes, nodded, and said to everyone: "Everyone has no right to end his life now. His sins need to be judged by the true God. Hearing the voice of the Heavenly Master, the dying prince who had been beaten was finally relieved. (To be continued.) )

PS: The civil strife in Xirong is still continuing, and Shen Rong's emotional line is being sorted out! Thank you for your support! Please forgive me for any omissions in the book! I will try to be as clear as I am.
