Chapter 636: The Imperial Palace

Cheng Muyun was killed by Harada Jixiang with a sword, and the City Lord's Mansion naturally became empty. In the name of Princess Harada Jixiang Jiu, Lin Zhengfeng, Xiao Lingyue, and Lin Tong temporarily lived in the City Lord's Mansion.

After the end of the battle that day, Harada Kika sent Li Yuandu to lead 2,000 people outside the city to clean up the battlefield, and captured more than 50,000 Qingguo weapons, countless arrows of various kinds, and more than 10,000 pieces of armor and swords, which can be said to be a great harvest.

Of course, after returning to the castle lord's mansion, Norika Harada was not idle.

Immediately summoned all the defenders of Dusk Cloud City to gather at the City Lord's Mansion, and then carried out a series of redistributions of the defenders of the City Lord's Mansion, led by Harada Norika's personal guards Li Yuandu and Li Yuanming, who were arbitrarily dispatched by the City Lord's Mansion in Dusk Cloud City.

Li Yuandu and Li Yuanming are brothers, these two people are strong in martial arts, and they previously served as the commander of the current Majesty's guard of the Tianwu Kingdom, and after Harada Norika returned, His Majesty transferred the two brothers to Harada Jika's side.

Of course, these actions carried out by Harada Kika were all under Lin Zhengfeng's instructions.

In addition to readjusting the more than 10,000 defenders of Dusk Cloud City, Harada Norika also sent Li Yuanming to open a notice again in Dusk Cloud City, and informed that Dusk Cloud City would be taken over by the Nine Princesses in the future, with the intention of comforting the people. In addition, he also informed all the people in the city that the laws of the City Lord's Mansion still existed and would be managed by the Nine Princesses.

The effect is there.

When the people of Dusk Cloud City saw these notices, they all expressed endless surrender to Harada Norika.

Lin Zhengfeng broke through the 50,000 army of the Qing people with the strength of one person today, and this great achievement had already spread throughout Dusk Cloud City. And the victory in this battle also gave all the guards and people of Dusk Cloud City the hope of repelling the Qingguo people.

In an instant, the morale of the more than 10,000 defenders was high.

As a result, after the arrival of Harada Norika, Dusk Cloud City settled down again, everyone in the city performed their duties, and the people began to live a normal life again, but no one knew when the second siege of the Qingguo people would come.

It took two days for Norika Harada to calm down the big and small things in Dusk Cloud City.

Putting life in Twilight back on track.

Two days later.

Morning.

The Imperial Palace, the capital of the Tianwu Kingdom, was the time of the early dynasty.

The hundred civil and military officials of the Tianwu Kingdom are ranked under the court, and on the dragon throne sits the magnificent True Dragon Son of Heaven wearing a dragon robe, the one hundred and twenty-eighth emperor of the Tianwu Kingdom - Tianao.

Tianao reigned for one hundred and twenty years, and judging from the average life expectancy of the Shura Continent, if ordinary Li people died properly, one hundred and ten years old was the limit. On the other hand, if you are a practitioner, it is possible to delay your life by ten years. However, if one is a practitioner who is in the middle stage of cultivation and protects his body with true qi every day, he may live to be more than 200 years old. However, if you are a real strong person, five hundred years old is not high.

Immortality on the Shura Continent is no longer a dream, as long as you can break through, you can find the method of immortality.

As the one hundred and twenty-eighth emperor of the Tianwu Kingdom, Tianao has nine sons under his knees, and Feng Wu is Tianao's ninth child. And Tianao reigned for one hundred and twenty years, has always been supported by the people of Tianwu Kingdom, he has the world in his heart, worried about the country and the people, a few years ago because of the death of the ninth princess has been riddled with nightmares, a disease after the return of the ninth princess disappeared.

At this time, Tianao was sitting on the dragon chair, looking at the civil and military officials above the court with a look of majesty.

"King Lone is in the court this morning, but I see that the atmosphere in this court is a little different, you Aiqing, but you have something to say?"

Tianao looked at the people in the court hall and asked.

As soon as his words fell, the ministers in the front row walked in and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, early this morning, our military department received the news of Dusk Cloud City, two days ago, the 50,000 troops of the Qingguo people besieged my Dusk Cloud City. ”

Tianao was furious when he heard this, and said, "There is such a thing? It seems that the people of Qingguo are really going to destroy my Tianwu Kingdom, the military department is still the book, what is the current situation in Dusk Cloud City? Can the city lord lead his troops out of the city to fight? ”

"This ......"

The military lord bowed his head and was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, nothing happened to Dusk Cloud City, but this matter, the old minister doesn't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it, the Lone King forgives you for your innocence." Tianao said.

Lord Bingbu nodded, took a long breath and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Cheng Muyun, the city lord of Dusk Cloud City, suddenly died tragically in the city lord's mansion when the Qingguo people attacked the city two days ago, and the person who killed the city lord was the ninth princess Feng Wu. ”

Tianao was stunned for a moment, and said, "What did you say?" Wu'er killed the city lord? Can anyone tell me when Mai'er went to Dusk? Why doesn't the lone king know? ”

"Your Majesty."

At this time, another minister came out and said: "Your Majesty, the lower official has already sent someone to check, the ninth princess Feng Wu is not in the palace, and she took Li Yuandu, Li Yuanming, her personal maid and a few guards out of the palace four days ago, and arrived in Dusk Cloud City in the afternoon two days ago. ”

"What? This girl didn't even say a word to the lonely king. Tianao frowned, and then said: "The military department is still in charge, this matter is not discussed for the time being, but you can tell me what the situation is in Dusk Cloud City now." ”

The lord of the military department nodded again and replied, "Your Majesty will listen to the old minister first." Although the Nine Princesses Feng Wu killed the city lord Cheng Muyun, she took over the affairs of the city lord's mansion, and in the name of the nine princesses, she led the guards of Dusk Cloud City to personally guard the city, and appeased tens of thousands of people in Dusk Cloud City. ”

Hearing this, Tianao immediately raised his head and laughed, and said: "Okay, Wu'er has done a good job, she is worthy of being a descendant of my Tianwu family, Lord Shangshu, and the Lone King should be rewarded for this." ”

Lord Bingbu did not object, but continued: "Your Majesty, the Ninth Princess's behavior is commendable. However, according to the report of the spies, three characters of unknown origin appeared around the ninth princess, two women, and a man, and the ninth princess had a great friendship with the man, holding hands and hugging in public, regardless of the identity of the princess. ”

"Is that so?" Tianao was surprised.

"It is true. According to the people of the Purple Mansion in Dusk Cloud City, the man's name was Lin Yu, and he was rescued from the Beast Forest by the third lady of the Purple Mansion, and for some reason he actually met the princess, and he had a great relationship. The third lady of the Purple Mansion saved his life, and Lin Yu took revenge on the old lady of the Purple Mansion and poisoned it, and a few days ago, someone from the Purple Mansion came to the palace to ask for medicine, just to heal the old lady of the Purple Mansion. Also, that Lin Yu was a Qingguo spy who was ordered to be arrested by the city lord of Dusk Cloud City. Lord Bingbu said.

Tianao's face sank.

Feng Wu is the most beloved child among his nine sons, and what the military department Shangshu said made Tianao's whole person feel bad.

Taking a deep breath, Tianao said: "The book of the military department, what you said is true?" ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister has nothing to say, these are all heard from the mouth of the Purple Mansion, and the spies sent by the old minister will not be wrong." Lord Bingbu replied.

"Do you know what's going on in Twilight City right now? What is Mai'er doing? ”

"Avoidance, I don't know for the time being, I only received news from the spies, Princess Fengwu is leading the army to resist, and there has been no news from the spies for two days. Forgive the old minister's courage, maybe Dusk Cloud City has been forced, otherwise, the spies sent out by the old minister will definitely not be without news. ”

"Huh?"

Tianao sighed, and the whole person was stunned.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of laughter from the court.

Then the crowd looked.

A white-haired old man stroked his beard and walked forward, if Lin Zhengfeng was present, he would definitely be able to recognize that this old man was Ande.

"Your Excellency, why are you laughing?" Tianao saw Ander and asked.

Ander is a person above 10,000 people in this court, and he is deeply grateful to Tianao, so much so that in this court, even Tianao has to give him some face.

Ande stepped forward and stroked his beard, then pinched his fingers and said, "Your Majesty, if I guess correctly, the man named Lin Yu is no one else, but an old acquaintance of the Ninth Princess, and he is not a spy of the Qingguo, there is this man in Dusk Cloud City, and he will never break it." ”

"Envoy, what do you mean by that?" Tianao asked in surprise.

Ander then smiled and didn't say anything more.

At this time, a guard ran in and said, "Your Majesty, the Ninth Princess's personal maid Bi'er asks to see you." ”

"Bi'er?"

Tianao was slightly startled and said, "Pass her in." ”

Under the sight of the civil and military officials, Bi'er quickly ran into the court hall and bowed proudly to the sky. Tianao was in a hurry at this time, and immediately asked in a deep voice. "Bi'er, aren't you with the Ninth Princess? Where are the Nine Princesses now? ”

Bi'er was nervous for a while, and hurriedly kowtowed and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, it was the Ninth Princess who asked the slave maid to come." Two days ago, the Qingguo people attacked the city, and Dusk Cloud City was in danger. Cheng Muyun, the lord of Dusk Cloud City, has been killed by the Ninth Princess for dereliction of duty, and the princess ordered the slave and maid to rush back to the palace overnight, and explained the matter to His Majesty. ”

"Tell me, what's the situation in Twilight now?" Tianao said.

"Back to Your Majesty, a man in Dusk Cloud City who was called Brother Zhengfeng by the Nine Princesses wiped out the 50,000 army of Qingguo with the power of one person. The siege army of Qingguo was completely annihilated, and the city of Dusk Cloud captured countless booty, and the people of the city cheered. However, the defenders of Dusk Cloud City are limited, and the Ninth Princess implores His Majesty to immediately send 50,000 troops to Dusk Cloud City to defend the city. Bi'er replied.

As soon as these words fell, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty instantly exclaimed.

Tianao's face turned even pale, and he wiped out the 50,000 troops of the Qingguo with the power of one person?

Tianao gasped.

At this time, the military department said: "Bi'er, is the person you are talking about named Lin Yu?" ”

"Lord Hui, it is Lin Yu, the Qingguo spy who was ordered to be arrested by the city lord of Dusk Cloud City a few days ago, and the slave maid also doesn't know why the ninth princess has a very good relationship with him, calling him Brother Zhengfeng, two days ago, he broke the 50,000 army of Qingguo alone, and none of them survived, and it is exactly like this, Dusk Cloud City defended, and also captured a lot of enemy trophies." Bi'er replied.

As soon as the words fell, the sound of gasping in the hall came.
