He was not afraid of temporary blockages, and he never doubted his Dao heart.

Yes, the vow he made was contrary to his monastic purpose, but he was not at a loss.

The red dust is wonderful, and the catastrophe is inevitable.

He knew his doom was coming.

The catastrophe is a passage into the abyss, and it is also a step up to the nine heavens.

Crises coexist.

He is caught in a tangle between right and wrong, and he needs to reprove himself.

In this life, he rarely had any bumps in his cultivation path, because he had the support of the Dao heart and experience of his previous life.

By now, his cultivation has surpassed his previous life, and his Dao Heart needs to be taken to the next level.

He swore an oath against his heart, which was a demonic act to destroy his future, but at the same time, it was also a way to abandon the past and find his true self.

The road to leisure, how can there ever be a smooth road?

………………

……

The affairs in the Ming Palace, as far as the whole world is concerned, are not worth paying attention to at all.

Northern Jiangsu.

On the head of the city, there was another stain of blood.

The cuckoo walked up to the castle tower again, and this time it was Huaming Mansion standing next to her.

The two of them looked ahead, and the banner barbarian camp where countless soldiers and horses had gathered was silent.

For a long time, there was the sound of drums.

Hua Mingfu said softly: "Let's go!" ”

The cuckoo turned his eyes to look back, and the soldiers on the city tower who were ready to fight again had already red eyes: "They ......"

Hua Mingfu's tone was calm: "It's not easy to fight, and it's even more difficult to withdraw!" ”

Just one sentence decided the outcome of the three thousand soldiers here.

The cuckoo was silent for a moment, did not say anything more, and turned around and went down the tower.

Huaming Mansion sent her to the city and bowed: "Please leave everything to Mr." ”

"Ming Wangfu is a promise!" The cuckoo replied.

Then he mounted his horse, and under the escort of more than a dozen guards, he hurried out of the city.

Before he left the city, he only heard behind him, and suddenly shouted to kill.

The cuckoo couldn't help but restrain his horse, so did Lu Changxian, and so did the capable people in the Imperial Court Mansion around him.

A group of several people, all stationed to look back.

It's a little farther, but everyone is a person who has cultivated and has extraordinary eyesight.

You can still see the castle tower vaguely, and the arrows rain down the sky, drowning the soldiers on the castle tower.

Then countless soldiers made up for it, and then fell......

Everyone was silent, and Lu Changxian couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know how many people can live in the end?" ”

"Rack!" The cuckoo's eyes were already misty, she looked back, swung her whip violently, and galloped away.

Lu Changxian looked at the back of the cuckoo galloping, sighed again, and followed.

Those monks of the Huangting Mansion looked back at the city tower for a while, and there was a rare silence on their faces.

One of them suddenly withdrew the reins of his horse, and ran toward the tower.

Someone next to him urged the horse to stop the person: "You are crazy! ”

In the end, the people of the Huang Ting Mansion still followed the cuckoo and left.

There were no soldiers and horses along the way, and it was not until a long time after leaving the city that I saw that a large group of soldiers and horses were galloping wildly, evacuating towards the Xijiang River.

It is not easy to withdraw the army, and it is naturally impossible to wait until the city is broken before leaving, at that time it will not be a withdrawal, but a defeat and escape, and the slightest carelessness will wipe out the entire army.

Those men in the city were the last defenders of the city......

Du Juan and the others waved their horses, and heard a general urging the soldiers to move quickly.

Suddenly, I saw a soldier jump out and stop in front of the cuckoo horse.

Lu Changxian and the people of the Huang Ting Mansion suddenly flashed and surrounded the cuckoo in the middle.

There was a monk from Huangting Mansion who drew his sword without saying a word, and wanted to make a move, but he heard Lu Changxian say: "Wait." ”

The soldier didn't seem to notice the danger, and asked Lu Changxian and the others in a hoarse voice, "You are from the city. ”

Obviously, this soldier was just an ordinary soldier at the bottom, and he didn't know Lu Changxian.

Lu Changxian was about to answer, but he saw that a general noticed it, galloped over, and when he saw this scene, he didn't say a word, flew off his horse, and kicked over the soldier.

Then he hurriedly asked Lu Changxian for his guilt: "The rough man in the army does not know the rules, which has disturbed you, and I ask Your Excellency to forgive him and spare his life." ”

As he spoke, he knelt down.

The soldier seemed to understand that he had caused trouble, but he was also a bachelor, and immediately knelt down and said to Lu Changxian: "It has nothing to do with others, I will bear it alone." ”

After that, draw the sword and cut yourself.

All the soldiers around him stopped, staring straight at this side, but none of them said anything.

But including Du Jun, Lu Changxian and the others clearly felt that a huge aura was gathering.

Lu Changxian's face changed slightly, and he swept the surrounding soldiers, only to see that all eyes were red, but there were endless killing opportunities spreading.

"Wait!" The cuckoo's voice rang out.

As soon as he spoke, Lu Changxian flicked his fingers, and a streamer flashed, and the knife in the hand of the soldier who wanted to cut himself immediately collapsed.

"Thank you, sir, for sparing your life!" When the general saw it, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly made a move.

The cuckoo stepped forward and asked the soldier, "You want to ask about the situation in the city?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the general's voice suddenly stopped, and all the eyes of the surrounding soldiers converged on the cuckoo's face at the same time.

"My brother is still in the city!" The soldier's voice was low.

After a pause, the cuckoo only said, "When we left the city, the battle had already begun. ”

After that, he added: "I saw that there are still many generals, and even Mr. Hua, who is next to the marshal, is still commanding the battle in the city." ”

After that, the cuckoo got on his horse and galloped away with Lu Changxian and the others.

Soon, another roar rang out behind them.

"What are you doing in a daze, waiting for the flag man to chase after you?"

"Time is fought for by the brothers with their lives, whoever dares to ink, Lao Tzu hacked him to death!"

"Run, run for Lao Tzu, keep your life, there will always be a day of revenge."

Du Juan and the others looked back, only to see that the soldiers behind them had already started to hurry again.

…………

In the world of chaos, the most important thing is news that shocks the world.

The new emperor ascended the throne, named the country Tai'an, and paid the first attention to military affairs, which made the government and the opposition excited.

However, it has only been less than ten days since Emperor Tai'an ascended the throne, and all kinds of cheering voices among the people are still shouting.

Northern Jiangsu fell.

That's right, the fall of northern Jiangsu was very small, and it came out very suddenly, and it spread to the provinces of Great Xia at a rapid pace.

Don't say that the people are confused.

The officials of the government and the opposition are a little confused!

It's so sudden.

There are a group of people in northern Jiangsu, who have always been as stable as Mount Tai, and they will collapse if they say it.

However, the fall of northern Jiangsu was only the beginning of bad news.

On the 21st, northern Jiangsu fell.

On the 24th, the banners and barbarians combined to attack southern Jiangsu.

On the 30th, only four days, the entire territory of southern Jiangsu fell.

Since then, the southeast of Great Xia has all fallen into the hands of the banners.

That's not all, the withdrawal of troops in southern Jiangsu was not timely, and they were chased and killed by the banner barbarians for 80 miles, 60,000 soldiers, and less than 10,000 came out intact.

Subsequently, the banner barbarian army was reorganized, and it had the intention of taking advantage of the victory to pursue and take Xijiang in one fell swoop.

Tens of thousands of banners were barbaric, Chen soldiers in northern Jiangsu, and Fang Youqun, who retreated to the Xijiang River, confronted each other, and a big battle was about to break out.

A flurry of bad news came and the whole country was shocked.

For example, today, people talk about troubled times when they open their mouths and close their mouths.

But it was not until now, when the news of the defeat of northern and southern Jiangsu came, that people really felt what the troubled times were like.

It was as if the next moment, the entire Great Xia would be trampled under the feet of the bannerman.

No one can remain calm anymore.

The first answer sheet handed over by Emperor Tai'an after ascending the throne shook everyone.

Even Lin Huayao and the others were stunned by this mutation.

It wasn't until after the fall of southern Jiangsu that he began to react.

Of course, the first thing to do is to inevitably attack the country.

The warlords headed by Lin Huayao jointly spoke out in public, condemning Fang Youqun for cowardly fighting and fleeing, ignoring the national land, ignoring the people of northern and southern Jiangsu, and Fang Youqun taking charge of the handsome seal in vain.

They openly demanded that the DPRK severely punish Fang Youqun in order to set an example.

Several warlords are all heroes in the world, and under the joint efforts, Fang Youqun soon became a rat crossing the street, and the dynasty also became the target of public criticism.

Countless people with lofty ideals gathered in the capital from all sides.

There is only one purpose, so that the party has the group to give the head!

Huaming Mansion's worries have become a reality, once the troops are withdrawn on their own initiative, Fang Shuai's life will not be guaranteed.

Beijing was overcrowded for a while, and there were giants from northern and southern Jiangsu, as well as refugees.

、

There are also a number of people with lofty ideals who are unwilling to become slaves of the country and are eager to contribute to the country.

The residences of various officials were full for a while.

It was Mr. Cai next door to the Ming Palace, and his home was also broken through the threshold.

The Ming Palace, which is separated by a wall, can even be clearly heard on the opposite side, with an impassioned voice, bluntly scolding the king for being unvirtuous, the minister being disloyal, and Daxia will die.

Lord Cai Yuande was deeply afraid of being heard by the Ming Palace, and kept admonishing, but he still couldn't stop those angry voices.

Lord Cai Yuande wanted to cry without tears, and when he came to his house, there were his former teachers and his friends in the opposition, and these people were not something he could drive away.

Fortunately, the Ming Wang's Mansion was closed from beginning to end, and there was no reaction to it.

In fact, even if the Ming Wangfu has an opinion, there is nothing to be done.

This is not a family or a single household singing the opposite word at all, and this is the case everywhere in the whole of Beijing.

Even the secret service under the Son of Heaven did not dare to dispatch, unless it was openly on the street, bluntly slandering the king, and it was too ostentatious, so it had to be taken down.

Twenty-three days.

Due to pressure, the DPRK and China were not allowed to hold a grand court meeting.

Since ascending the throne, Lao Jiu, who has not appeared in public, put on a dragon robe again, put on a jade crown, and sat on the dragon chair.

King Ming, who rarely appeared in front of people, also stood on top of the court again, standing under the same roof with Lao Jiu.

Hu Qingyan, who leans towards the government and the opposition, is on the list.

The king of virtue who has risen and degraded is in the ranks.

Zhang Bangli is in the list.

The head of the military attaché, Qin Hong, the minister of military aircraft, was on the list.

The court and the management were together, and before they could speak, the atmosphere was already tense and intense.

Mo Bai, Hu Qingyan, and Zhang Bangli were all quite calm, after all, they had prepared in advance.

And Qin Hong, the Minister of Military Aircraft, is an old man with an iron face, and he knows very well that he is afraid that he will become the target of public criticism today.

But he was really wronged, so he took office, and the relationship was not straightened out, so Fang Youqun didn't greet him at all, and directly withdrew from the army.

Now the whole capital is waiting for him to explain, he didn't do anything, explain a fart.

But there are some things that are not easy to say, he can't tell the military marshals to make public the fact that they don't take him seriously at all, and he doesn't want this old face anymore.

But the matter has become so big, it is already a matter of losing his head, and this person must be lost today.

Only Lao Jiu sat at the top, accompanied by two real people, his face was neither happy nor sad, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
