Volume 2 Jihui Ningdu Chapter 175 Lifting of martial law
Dragon Bird Valley, in the command hall.
The lights were bright, and the Palm Order Hall, which had been covered with dust, was cleaned.
In the main hall, under the dragon mural at the top, there is an empty chair carved by the dragon and phoenix, and there are two high chairs on the left and right of the next floor, on which there are already a unified old man in white robes and long beards, three men and one woman.
These are the four elders of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, Fuyao, Qixing, Guanshan, and Zhenyue.
On the left and right of the hall is a row of flat tables, on both sides of which are placed flat leaning, and some fruits and drinks are placed on the table.
Ning Zhou sat in the second place on the left, and the first one above him sat Xuanyuan Mingyue.
Xuanyuan Mingyue was wearing a solemn dress, and Qin Zhiwei was sitting directly across from her.
In addition to this, there were four other men and one woman, and there were twelve people in the whole hall, plus the old men.
These twelve people are the most powerful people in the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow.
The old woman on the far left said, "Now that we are all together, let's get started." ”
"Wait, how is the Earth Dragon Division Si Chen? What about Huo Lingzhuo? Another old man looked sharply at the second man sitting on the lower left and asked with some dissatisfaction.
The man was dressed in a black brocade robe embroidered with lace and a ranger bun, and he looked magnificent, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
He stood up, saluted the four old men, and said, "Commander Huo has something important to do temporarily, and he can't participate in the annual Dragon Bird Meeting, so he specially asked his subordinates to rush over from Beimeng. ”
"Si Chen, you are just the palace marshal of the Earth Dragon Division, how can you be qualified to participate in the Dragon Sparrow Club? Even if Huo Lingzhuo can't come, he can only send the hall marshal to participate, and the three hall marshals of the Earth Dragon Division can't be your turn, right? The old man who had just questioned him didn't seem to like him.
"Elder Qixing, the commander of the Tange Palace led the army to fight with Beiyi at Shanhaiguan, and he couldn't come alone, and the palace marshal of Yinglin has not heard from him for three years. Therefore, Commander Huo could only arrange for me to come. Si Chen explained with a smile.
"Hmph, I don't know what Huo Lingzhuo has to do, he didn't even come to participate in such an important Dragon Sparrow Meeting." Elder Qixing was still a little dissatisfied.
"Okay, it's the same for Si Chenlai. Huo Lingzhuo's affairs are inconvenient for a few of our old guys to ask. The old woman made a round, and then said, "Tonight, the most important thing is about the Ming army's entry into Ningdu, everyone should express their opinions." ”
Si Chen sat down again and said, "The Ming clan should be punished for openly tearing up the Linhe Convention, and in the eyes of my Dilong Division, there is nothing to discuss. ”
"Do you mean Huo Lingzhuo?" The elder on the far right asked.
"Exactly, Commander Huo said this to his subordinates, and he didn't change a word."
Ning Zhou frowned slightly, and said, "Elders, I think that if you make a big move, it will be the people of Ningdu City who will be hurt. Did you give Ming a warning first? ”
"Joke, if Ming Heng can listen to the warning of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, he probably won't dare to do this, right?" Si Chen said with a sneer.
The old woman looked at Xuanyuan Mingyue and asked, "Mingyue, what do you think about this matter?" ”
"It's easy to destroy the Ming clan, but what about after the fall? What has become of Ningdu? Does it mean to let the Xuanyuan royal family regain control of Ningdu? Xuanyuan Mingyue said, but the implication did not seem to want the Xuanyuan clan to return to power.
"Why not? Xuanyuan Mingyue, you are surnamed Xuanyuan! Isn't it good to let the Xuanyuan clan take power? The woman at the bottom of the left asked with a look of disdain.
This woman's name is Ji Yanran, and she is the commander of the Huanglong Division.
"If the hearts of the Xuanyuan royal family still exist, it can let the Xuanyuan clan return to control the world. It's just that you think that if Ningdu is handed over to the Xuanyuan royal family, what will other countries think? Great Xia has been divided into seven kingdoms for nearly a hundred years, and it has become a habit for the seven kingdoms to enjoy their privileges, if the Xuanyuan clan is in charge of the imperial power, will they be worried that the Xuanyuan clan will take back the power in their hands? If Xuanyuan must have this courage, he can do it, but he is just a little kid with low eyes and low hands, and he has a lot of blood. ”
"Xuanyuan Mingyue, you don't seem to be very optimistic about your younger brother." Si Chen smiled lightly and said.
Qin Zhiwei sat there without saying a word.
The old woman asked, "Qin Zhiwei, your Heavenly Dragon Division has already found the Lord of the Dragon Order, and now you should also take care of the affairs of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, right?" What do you think? ”
Everyone's eyes looked at Qin Zhiwei, although in the eyes of the world, the strongest Great Xia Dragon Sparrow was the Earth Dragon Division, but the people inside the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow knew that the strength possessed by the Heavenly Dragon Division was superior to the sum of the other seven divisions, and even the four elders had to look at the face of the Heavenly Dragon Division.
It's just that the Tenryu Division has always taken it as its mission to find the Dragon Order, and basically doesn't get involved in anything. Now that the Dragon Order has been found, the attitude of the Heavenly Dragon Division determines the attitude of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow.
Qin Zhi said lightly: "I already have a countermeasure, so don't discuss this matter any more." ”
"Dare to ask Commander Qin, what are the countermeasures you are referring to?" Si Chen asked, and the others also looked at her curiously, hoping to get an answer from her mouth.
"No comment." Qin Zhiwei still had that breezy tone, which made everyone present very embarrassed.
The old woman said, "Okay, now that the Tenryu Division already has a plan to deal with it, we don't need to worry too much. ”
Then with a hint of flattery, he asked, "Qin Zhiwei, I don't know when I can let Lord Ling and I meet?" ”
"Lord? Elder Fuyao, he is not the commander of our Great Xia Dragon Sparrow! Xuanyuan Mingyue said at this time.
"It's a matter of time anyway! If you can get the Dragon Order, you must have inherited it, and there is nothing wrong with that. Another elder said.
"He ......"
Xuanyuan Mingyue wanted to say something, but Ning Zhou interrupted her, "Commander Xuanyuan, be cautious." ”
"Elders, if there is nothing else, just dismiss the meeting, I still have important things to deal with." Qin Zhiwei got up at this time and said to the four elders above.
"Wait, this year, the Wuye Kingdom and Beiyi have invaded my Great Xia one after another, and the war has entered a scorching stage, and this matter still needs to be discussed." Elder Qixing stopped her.
Qin Zhiwei sat down again, looked at Si Chen, and asked, "Si Chen, last time Xuanyuan led him to Yuanmu City and was attacked by assassins, do you know about this?" ”
"Huh? Is there such a thing? Everyone, including Si Chen, looked shocked.
"I don't know about this, why didn't Commander Xuanyuan know about a certain Huisi?" Si Chen hurriedly said, there was a sincere face between the words, not like a fake.
"It's nothing, it's just some clowns." Xuanyuan Mingyue said lightly, "I, the Heavenly Sparrow Division, will naturally find out about this matter, and Si Dianshuai doesn't have to take it to heart." ”
"Commander Qin, when you mentioned this matter, don't you suspect that this matter has something to do with Beiyi?" Si Chen asked again.
"Perhaps." Qin Zhiwei gave an ambiguous answer, and then said to the four elders, "The invasion of the Wuye Kingdom and Beiyi has been almost settled!" If the battle continues after the beginning of spring next year, it will trouble Elder Zhenyue's Zhenyue army. ”
Elder Zhenyue nodded, "After I go back, let them prepare, and be ready to send troops at any time." ”
Ningdu, Zhongshan Palace, Ming Heng sat in his study, and behind him stood Ming Jing, and there were more than a dozen people in the room, some wearing brocade clothes, and some wearing heavy armor.
These were loyal ministers to him, as well as his generals.
"Let's talk about it, what's going on now." Ming Heng opened his mouth lightly.
"Your Majesty, now in Ningdu, basically all the families and nobles have expressed their allegiance to the king, except for those few difficult bones that have not yet let go." The general in golden armor replied that this was Li Kan, the commander of his 50,000 elite soldiers.
"Tell me, what are they?" Ming Heng frowned and asked.
"Luo family, Luo Jing is the husband of the eldest princess after all, we don't dare to force him too much."
Ming Heng nodded, "Xuanyuan Mingyue is the leader of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Heavenly Sparrow Division after all, as long as the Luo family doesn't give this king a face, let them go." ”
"Lin. Lin Chong is the captain of the Warden Division, and we can't turn our faces against him until we take control of the Warden Division. ”
"It's okay for the Lin family, I'll go and see Lin Chong in person sometime."
"The Xiao family, this second lady of the Xiao family took a big knife and stood at the door of the house, and we didn't dare to conflict with the Xiao family."
Although Xiao Man took over his father's position, the power was still in Xiao Xuan's hands. He raised his arms now, and in addition to the soldiers of the battalion of the city patrol division of the Pujia people, the other people of the city patrol division would also follow him against the king. If the city patrol division obstructs, it will give the king a headache. ”
Later, Li Kan said several families and families, all of which were people he was very unwilling to offend.
"Well, in that case, let the soldiers withdraw to the camp tomorrow, now that the situation is basically under control, there is no need for such martial law anymore."
"Your Majesty, we seem to have neglected the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow." At this time, a civil official opened his mouth and said, this person is Zheng Fu, the father of Zheng Xuan, the governor of Zhenchuan Gate, and the military and political minister of Ningchuan Province.
Ming Heng's brows furrowed deeply, it had been several days since he had let the army enter the city, but the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow didn't seem to react at all.
Anyway, he is blatantly tearing up the "Linhe Convention" by doing this, even if the Great Xia Longque does not interfere, he should give a verbal warning or refutation, right?
But now there was nothing, and he vaguely felt that the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow might be plotting something.
The strength of the Great Xia Dragon Bird on the surface made him have a deep jealousy, and now that the 30,000 advance troops are still in Shanhaiguan, they will definitely not return to Ningdu.
Therefore, he dared to order 50,000 elite soldiers to enter Ningdu.
However, the current Great Xia Dragon Sparrow did not have the slightest movement, and it must be brewing something.
"Let the soldiers watch the city gate and always pay attention to the movements of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow." Ming Heng felt a little uneasy in his heart.
