Chapter 642: Bloody Rain
On that day, it rained in Chang'an, and not many people appeared in the streets and alleys. So few people have ever seen the many sorrows and indignations, the many impassionedness, that happened on that day!
In later legends, the real revision and establishment of a worldly code of laws that covered thousands of years of history began with the Yuan Duke smashing the gate of the Han Dynasty and coming out high-spirited.
Zhao Yu, the only person who was summoned by Yuan to ask the emperor to be released from the prison in his personal name, dedicated the rest of his life to personally preside over the revision of the "Code of the Han Empire". With this brilliant work alone, he has established an unshakable pioneering position in the history of the development of Chinese national law.
A few years later, when the entire Han Dynasty began another journey in a new situation, the founder of the Code, who was already in his last years, once expressed his heartfelt feelings for many of his students and assistants.
“…… Since the three kings, after the Zhou Shang, the kingdoms of the world have been divided, opening the source of trouble. Later, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period continued to smoke, and the soldiers continued to fight for days. People's hearts are not ancient, morality is corrupt, and then there are princely states that set their own laws, and the kings have a constitution in their mouths, and the world is one after another, and it is difficult for the common people to die on their own...... Although later Qin Shi Huang merged the six kingdoms, unified the United States, and formulated the Great Qin Law to correct the chaos of the laws and regulations in the world. But the cruelty of it, there are many things, the people can not bear the pain of all kinds of punishments, there are violent resistance, the demise of Qin, the cruelty of the law, it is difficult to escape the blame! The Han Dynasty inherited the system of Qin, and in terms of legislation, although it had the mind of Gaozu and the benevolence of Emperor Wen, it was still difficult to completely clean up the drawbacks...... The determination of the law, the foundation of the country, and the stability of the society, cannot be easily shaken. If you want to sweep away the accumulated shortcomings of thousands of years, inherit the past and open up a new situation, and benefit the people of Li with fairness and justice, this is not a person with great wisdom, courage and perseverance! …… The Han Dynasty has a Yuan Gong, how lucky! With such a person, the Chinese nation will always be prosperous and prosperous......! ”
These supreme evaluations are not the opinions of Zhao Yu alone, nor are they just the opinions of the legal officials, but the consensus of every generation of rulers in the entire Han Empire in the future. It is also the unanimous recognition of all those who respect and study the "Code of the Han Empire" in all countries outside the world.
However, few people in this world know that the reason why Yuan Zhao made an oath at that time and promoted this matter with extremely strong determination was only because of the death of a person.
From the Great Han Tingwei Mansion to the Weiyang Palace, the distance is very short, and the short ones are only separated by one street. However, whether it is the desert yellow sand or thousands of miles of waves, in comparison, in the distance that Yuan Zhao has traveled over the years, he feels that this distance is extremely long.
The wind and rain hit, and it was filled with plain white clothes. With each step, the footsteps froze for a minute.
“…… Brother Yuan, let me go, let me down...... There's more important things waiting for you to do...... I have no regrets about seeing you before I die...... ”
The person named Zhao Yuan was carried on his back by Yuan Zhao, although the pain in his body made him unbearable anymore, but the smile on his lips came from the heart in the rain at this moment.
Ma Xiaoqi, the fat man who followed closely behind, couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain on his face, he took off his cloth robe and supported it with his hand, covering the top of the heads of the two people in front of him, and with the other hand tried again and again to wipe the blood from the mouth of the person who had a lifelong friendship with his father, but it was only in vain.
"Uncle Zhao, I'm sorry, I was wrong...... I should have come to your rescue first! ”
Yuan Zhao lowered his head and walked forward step by step, his voice was a little dull, and when he turned the street, the Vermilion Bird Gate of Weiyang Palace was not far away.
"Don't say these stupid things...... Brother Yuan, what is important and what is light in the world, in your heart, you should know better than anyone else...... An individual's life is not worth mentioning at all in the face of the overall situation of peace in the world. You have caused a lot of trouble for me this time...... Ahem....... ”
The man who used to be fierce and fierce is now full of muscles and veins, and his hands and feet have no strength, and it has become very difficult to even speak. Yuan Zhao had condensed his strength between his arms as much as possible to prevent him from having the slightest force, but even so, the warm blood splattered into his neck, making him extremely ashamed and self-reproachful.
While walking, he heard the sound of Ma Xiaoqi sobbing behind him, and when he was about to say something more, he suddenly felt Zhao Yuan's body move, and then his voice seemed to be much more relaxed.
“…… Brother Yuan, I seem to remember that when I first saw you back then, it was also a rainy day in this season...... Outside the city of Chang'an, a thin and small child...... Follow us...... Return to Van Xue Lou...... But I didn't expect to grow into such a powerful person today...... In this life, a few of our brothers have met you, and it is a worthwhile ....... ”
The voice gradually deepened, and finally fell silent. Yuan Zhao felt a pain in his heart, he knew that he had no power to return to heaven after all, and in the face of life and death, even if he had great ability, he was helpless!
"Uncle Zhao! Woowoo...... Brother Yuan, Uncle Zhao, ...... him?"
Seeing that the person on Yuan Zhao's back lowered his head, there was no movement. The fat man Ma Xiaoqi finally burst into tears. Yuan Zhao didn't look back, nor did he let go, still carrying Zhao Yuan, who was already dead. He felt the coldness of the raindrops on his back to the sky, and seemed to have made up some kind of determination at this moment, and then began to speed up his pace, and the more he walked, the more determined he became, and went straight to the gate of the Suzaku Palace. Behind him, the blood that flowed all the way, washed away by the rain, became lighter and fainter, and finally gradually disappeared.
In the autumn of that year, in the continuous rain, in the suburbs of Xiqing, Chang'an, Zhao Yuan, who was riding a big green horse, was a dashing and brave young man. He and several other loyal and righteous people protected the mother and daughter of the Su family and escaped from the pursuit of the Liuyun Gang. But because he inadvertently took in Yuan Zhao, he completely changed the trajectory of all their lives. Over the years, he has taken care of some intelligence matters for Yuan Zhao without regrets. Dead today, the state of mind must still be the same as when they first met......
No one could see the blood on the streets outside the palace. Maybe it won't be long before there will be more blood, sprinkled all over the long streets! And at this moment, in front of the Chonghua Gate in Weiyang Palace, the splashed blood seems to be a little denser than raindrops!
The commander of the embroidered clothes guard made Jiang Chong's mood in this short period of time can be described as a big ups and downs, surprise and joy. He never imagined that he would experience such twists and turns today.
Earlier, when a large number of Xifengwei masters began to attack along the Yongdao towards the Chonghua Gate, Jiang Chong, like most of the guards, did not think that they could be stopped.
Even if the palace wall is high, in front of these martial arts masters, it is not too difficult to climb and jump up. And more importantly, with Feng Yanzhi personally in charge, no one dares to say that they can stop the power of his double swords.
Xifengwei, this court force that has existed for sixty or seventy years, is full of masters and is mysterious. The palace guards were always in awe of them. But he never thought that one day, he would fight against each other with swords and fight for life and death.
Seeing the hesitation and fear on everyone's faces, Jiang Chong smiled bitterly, the enemy is currently cowardly, and the consequences can be imagined before the battle. Will he lead his brothers to fight to the death here or take advantage of the current opportunity to evacuate quickly?
The shining blade obscured the rain, and it was roughly estimated that there were nearly seven or eight hundred people in Xifengwei between the thousands of meters long corridor. This should be all the power that Xi Fengwei can summon inside and outside Chang'an City, right?
The look on the face of the leader of the guards was equally unsightly. However, there was something strange in his eyes, and he was looking around, as if he was expecting something. This made Jiang Chong puzzled, and at the same time, swallowed back the idea that he was about to exit and order his subordinates to see the situation and need to avoid the edge for a while.
Then, he saw a shocking scene.
Just when those roaring figures were about to grab the Chonghua Gate, the waves of the Daoshan Mountain were about to be powerful, and the fight for life and death was about to begin. A drum suddenly sounded not far from him, and it seemed that a thunderbolt from the sky had fallen on the palace wall, which was deafening and alarming.
I don't know when the thousands of soldiers who were quietly ambushed here moved almost at the same time, showing their figures on the palace walls on both sides. At first, the people on the road below thought it was a thunderclap, but when they looked up, they suddenly felt bad.
Ming armor, black robe and white feathers, such an obvious sign of clothing is unique to the Han Royal Yulin Army stationed in Weiyang Palace. Now, they are standing high on the palace walls on both sides of the Chonghua Gate Road, the crossbow arrows in their hands are wound, and they are aimed at the bottom with their brushes, their faces expressionless, and their eyes are cold. The aura of death instantly enveloped the distance of several thousand meters.
Xi Fengwei is indeed a master, they obeyed the secret order of the commander Feng Yanzhi, and entered the palace to extinguish the so-called rebels. Although I felt that this order was a little strange, no one would ask a word, this was originally the rule of Xi Fengwei for many years, as a subordinate, you must not disobey.
A palace gate, if you want to break open, it's easy. However, now in the face of the Yulin Army, which had already set up an ambush and waited here, under the deterrence of those cold crossbow arrows, no one dared to act rashly.
Feng Yanzhi, who was still dressed in a dark robe, raised his head and met the cold eyes of General Yulin, who was firmly staring at him. Instead of panicking, he laughed softly.
"Han Yan, you, a junior, also want to block my path today?"
"If the thief makes trouble, everyone will be punished! Feng Yanzhi, today's Chonghua Gate is where you will die! ”
Before Han Yan, who was dressed in armor, had already heard her voice fall, a figure had already risen into the sky, like a bird in the rain, and her double knives flew like iron wings, and her head was slashed!
