Volume 2 Song of the Morning Chapter 18 Succession
The Warat tribe is accustomed to grassland life and does not like the climate and environment of the Central Plains, otherwise, there would not be so many tribes who do not agree with Anamzar's southern expedition. Because Anamzar is all about revenge.
Of course, the northern steppes were not as prosperous as the southern, so when they left, they would have plundered the food, equipment, and women of those lands, as they had done more than twenty years ago.
Whether it's for revenge or whatever the Warats need, Anamzar will choose to go south. With the existence of this person, the war between Hao and Beidi Warat is unavoidable, and as for Liang State, it is enough to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
"By the way, Bai'er, it will be the birthday of the Empress Dowager Nanhao in a few days, do you have a suitable candidate?" Emperor Liang coughed, looked at Liang Shanbai, and said: "Because of the case on Wencheng Street a few days ago, the intelligence network of our Jingshi was cleaned up by the Haoguo Procuratorate and Dongchang. ”
"The information in the Jingshi can't be broken."
After hearing this, Liang Shanbai behind him thought about it, looked for a moment among the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, then raised his head, looked at Emperor Liang, and said, "Father, what do you think, how about the Secret Pavilion to repair Jiang Zuolang?" ”
"Secret Pavilion Revision, Jiang Zuolang?" Emperor Liang said.
The official position of Liang State is similar to that of Haoguo, and it can be said that the official position of Haoguo refers to Liang Guo. However, Haoguo has modified a lot on the basis of Liang's official position.
"Yes, Father." Liang Shanbai smiled and continued: "Jiang Zuolang is humble and low-key, and it is precisely because of this that this person has not attracted the attention of the Haoguo Procuratorate. Moreover, this person's teacher, today's Guozi Sacrificial Wine, but the disciple of Ouyang Wang Su, this person is the best choice for Nan Hao's envoy. ”
Emperor Liang nodded. If you think about it, what the prince said is indeed reasonable. Jiang Zuolang's sense of existence is not high, if it weren't for the prince today, I'm afraid it would be difficult to think of this person. However, to be able to exist like this for a few years in the Secret Pavilion must have its own merits.
"In that case, the matter of sending Nan Hao will be handed over to you Bai'er." Emperor Liang held Liang Shanbai's hand and walked outside.
"I'm already old, and in the future, this Liang country will have to rely on you."
……
The turmoil in the Northland steppes has become a fact, and if nothing else, the remnants of Warat led by Anamzar will march south after the next spring is over. His Majesty the Emperor of Nanhao Kingdom naturally knew this, but he didn't react to it for a long time, which was really puzzling.
And looking at the officialdom of Haoguo, the officials only mentioned it casually a few times, and it seems that this matter is very small to them.
It is also true that today's Nanhao Kingdom has already recovered from the chaos of twenty years ago, and compared with the beginning, there is a faint tendency to surpass, so there is really no need to take it seriously.
As for the Liang State in the west, if it was the Liang State twenty years ago, then it still needs to be put into some thought. Today's Western Liang Kingdom is only surviving on the heritage accumulated over decades. It is Liang Shanbai, the prince of Liang State, who does have some ability. However, no matter how capable he is, he can't reverse the situation, after all, not everyone has the talent of the current Emperor Haoguo.
Riots in the Northland, and Eyes on the West. For Haoguo, it was just a trivial matter, the emperor of Haoguo was not worried, the officials did not take it to heart, and even the people did not bother to mention it.
…… As the sun rose, some of the blazing sky light was scattered, bringing a little bit of dry heat.
In front of Wencheng Street, Li Xiao, who had rested all night, was moving his numb body at this time, looking at the street in front of him silently.
"Master Li, let's have some breakfast." Zhou Shuyi handed the breakfast in his hand to Li Xiao and said with a smile.
Li Xiao nodded, took the breakfast that was still warm, and ate it. I got up late today, and it wasn't until Zhou Shu moved to Wan'an to look for him that he struggled to get up.
Twisting his neck, Li Xiao looked at his hand and couldn't help laughing. The biggest gain yesterday was not the progress of the Kamata case, let alone the removal of the residual poison in his body, but a small contact with Yang Qiankun.
I have to say that the master of the nine grades is indeed the master of the nine grades, and a random breath of true qi not only eliminated the residual poison in his body, but also improved his realm by great coincidence, allowing him to grope the threshold of the eight grades overnight, and he was able to break through in one night.
Of course, as early as after the attack on Wencheng Street that night, he had a vague feeling of eight pins, but he couldn't touch it, it felt like a fog, he couldn't see or touch it. And yesterday's blow from Yang Qiankun, by chance, dispersed the fog in front of him and made him enter the realm of the Eight Grades.
As soon as you enter the eighth grade, the whole person is different, and what you see and hear is much more transparent.
Li Xiao ate the breakfast in his hand with satisfaction, and glanced at Wencheng Street.
Although Wencheng Street was opened to the public by the emperor's decree and allowed others to enter, more than ten days have passed, and no one still dares to step in, the reason is that they are afraid of the factory in the east. But because of this, after all these days, Wencheng Street still maintains the same appearance as it was at that time, except for the blood stains washed away by the heavy rain.
However, Li Xiao didn't know this, Wencheng Street was still so ruined, maybe in his eyes it was because the feng shui here was not good.
"Li Gongzi, what do you remember?" Zhou Shuyi asked cautiously.
Li Xiao is a victim of the Wencheng Street incident, if the Wencheng Street incident progresses, he can only rely on the young man in front of him. However, as things stand, it seems that there is little hope. After all, the procuratorate and Dongchang are not vegetarians, if they can really find out, the case will be closed long ago, and it will be Li Xiao's turn.
Li Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly. The situation was so urgent that night, and the surrounding environment was so dark that he couldn't even see what the assassin looked like.
"By the way, the identity of the assassin, do you know that Zhou joined the army?" Li Xiao turned his head and asked.
Zhou Shuyi was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, how could this Li Gongzi not even know the identity of the assassin. Even though he thought so, he wiped his mouth and said, "The identities of those two assassins have been found out. ”
"One is a Warat person from the Northland Grassland, it is said that he is from the Warat Junggar Department, and he has been active between the Northland Grassland and my country's border all the year round, but I don't know why this person suddenly came to Beijing to assassinate Gongzi You, and I don't know how he obtained the Procuratorate's seven-star crossbow."
"Seven-star crossbow? Procuratorate? Li Xiao leaned against the shadows, his brows furrowed slightly. How did Xindao have anything to do with the procuratorate? This assassin is from the Northland grassland, but he uses the equipment of the procuratorate, could it be that the procuratorate of Haoguo collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country in order to kill himself. How is this possible. The procuratorate betrayed the country, I'm afraid it's a joke.
"It's indeed the Procuratorate's seven-star crossbow." Zhou Shuyi thought for a moment and continued: "The Seven-Star Crossbow is a unique heavy weapon of Haoguo, and its appearance is also unique, and Zhou will never admit his mistake. ”
As an important weapon of the country, the seven-star crossbow was seen by Zhou Shuyi, who was born in the army, and the assassin and the seven-star crossbow were sent to Jingzhao Yin Mansion that day, and as the only one in Jingzhao Yin Mansion, he naturally looked at it carefully. After all, this is a seven-star crossbow, so open-minded, why don't you let him pay attention. It's just that I still don't know why the Seven Star Crossbow appeared in Wencheng Street like this, and it was in the hands of the Northland barbarians. Could it be that the assassination of the unwritten street is really related to the procuratorate, or is it the internal prosecution of the procuratorate, where there is a detailed work?
Zhou Shuyi shook his head and didn't think much about it.
The procuratorate, which is an important institution of Haoguo, has made a detailed work, which makes people tremble. Moreover, in the Wencheng Street incident, the procuratorate was involved, and the shadow of Dongchang was involved. Even compared with the procuratorate, it is the people of Dongchang who are involved.
Li Xiao frowned again, suddenly raised his legs and walked forward, waved his hand to signal the Jingzhao Yin Mansion official on the side to get out of the way, and he squatted down and looked carefully at the small hole on the ground.
This hole was caused by the Assassin that night, and the short arrows came from the shadows and shot at Li Xiao mercilessly. Subconsciously glanced at the wound on his shoulder, and then reached out and touched the arrow hole on the ground.
The floor of Wencheng Street has not been renovated by the new town, so the stone used here is still the same as 16 years ago. Even so, it is a genuine stone, and although it is not as hard as other places, it is not as fragile as paper.
In such a ground, a hole was shot out, you can imagine how powerful the seven-star crossbow is, and it is really a national weapon.
"The design of the seven-star crossbow is very ingenious, the first three arrows have the potential to break the city, as for the next one, although it is weaker, but the power is still better than that of ordinary bows." Zhou Shuyi explained.
Nodding, Li Xiao secretly rejoiced. On that day, he was lucky, he dodged three arrows in a row, and was not injured by the so-called city-breaking crossbow, otherwise I am afraid that the arrow he was hit would be enough to penetrate half of his body.
At the thought of this, he couldn't help but shudder.
"And an Assassin? But it's also from the Northland grasslands? ”
Zhou Shuyi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The other assassin is not from the Northland Grassland, but a genuine Haoguo person. ”
Hearing Zhou Shuyi's words, Li Xiao turned his head in surprise.
Zhou Shuyi said again: "It is said that that person is a rootless person, and he is from the East Factory, and the long knife used is also the standard of the East Factory. ”
"Huh?" Li Xiao got up quickly and furrowed his brows. What does this mean, and why does it still involve the East Factory.
The seven-star crossbow of the procuratorate, as well as the fanzi of the East Factory and the long knife of the East Factory. Could it be that the two of them wanted to kill me?
But what good is this for them, is it for their father in Suzhou to appear? But it shouldn't be, if Chu Yi appeared because of himself, then Haoguo's martial arts would definitely fall into chaos, which would not be of any benefit to Haoguo, and the procuratorate and Dongchang, which were important institutions of Haoguo, would not know this. Moreover, the most important thing is that they should not know their relationship with Chu Yi, otherwise, at this time, they would not be surrounded by people from Jingzhao Yin Mansion.
"It seems that if you want to investigate this case, you need to go to the East Factory to have a look." Li Xiao looked at Dongcheng and sighed.
