Chapter 29 The Undercurrent of the Imperial Capital
The third is to ask for collections and flowers. )
Yuzhou, the imperial capital of the Great Xia court, the eternal place of the Xia surname!
The twilight of the imperial capital of Yuzhou, the remnant sun is like blood, the undercurrent is surging among the major forces in the Great Xia Dynasty, and the trapped dragon on the border of Jizhou is involved in the Zhao family who guards Jizhou, since the Zhao family entered Jizhou, it has controlled Jizhou's millions of soldiers and horses to deter the wild alien race for more than 500 years.
The Zhao family has many talented generals, so that the ambition of other forces in the Great Xia court to install subordinates to divide the military power has been exposed several times, and after being retaliated by blood, the Zhao family has already become a thorn in the side of many people!
The emperor of the current Great Xia court, Xia Qi, is old and twilight, and he is so slow to choose the prince that his nine sons began to form factions to compete for the throne!
The millions of soldiers and horses controlled by the Zhao family in Jizhou can be described as an extremely hungry demand for some princes who do not have the slightest advantage in military power. Therefore, in the matter of Zhao Batian's dereliction of duty and getting the border dragon vein out of trouble, several princes tried their best to protect Zhao Batian, wanting Zhao Batian to be acquitted and let the Zhao family in Jizhou continue to guard Jizhou as it was.
Some princes were too keen to intercede for Zhao Batian, which eventually made the old emperor feel suspicious.
At this time, the Yuwen family, which had always been at odds with the Zhao family in Jizhou, made a move.
"Your Majesty, the old minister wants to die, Zhao Batian was ordered to guard the border dragon vein, but he neglected his duty and let the border dragon vein get out of trouble. Liu Tianshi once said that if the trapped dragon is freed from the predicament, there will be rebellious ministers and thieves who rebel against Great Xia! The old minister believes that Zhao Batian is completely uneasy with the heart of the courtiers, and wants to let the rebellious ministers and thieves appear, and the old minister will die, please ask the emperor to kill Zhao Batian and punish his nine clans!" Yuwen Fang accused loudly
"Yuwen Fang, don't spew blood, Ben Hou didn't know how the border dragon vein got out of trouble from beginning to end, how can it be regarded as dereliction of duty? Liu Tianshi died on the trapped dragon platform back then, can you guarantee that he really trapped that dragon vein?" Zhao Batian stared at Yuwen Fang, who gave him the hat of a chaotic minister and thief, and snorted coldly
"Zhao Batian, you are already the God King of the Rebirth Realm, it is impossible not to sense the changes in the dragon vein at the first time!" Yu Wenfang countered
As soon as Yuwen Fang's words came out, Zhao Batian burst out loud and laughed, "Hahaha...... Yuwen Fang, if it weren't for the few dragon viewing mirrors left by Liu Tianshi, would you know the situation of the dragon veins in the border areas, and would you be able to know the changes in the dragon veins?
"Zhao Batian...... You are still so arrogant when you are dying...... "Yu Wenfang was flying by Zhao Batian's beard, he knelt on the ground and shouted like death, "Your Majesty, please order Zhao Batian to be killed, and his nine clans, otherwise all civil and military officials will not accept it!"
"Please order the emperor to kill Zhao Batian and punish his nine clans!" The ministers who were close to the Yuwen family all echoed
"Hehe, Prime Minister Yuwen, it's your own business if you don't accept it, don't bring the civil and military officials all at once. I don't think that the mistake made by Marquis Zhao should be beheaded and exterminated so seriously. After Li Xuanmen, the Marquis of Jingzhou, who was not smiling, stood up and teased Yuwen Fang, he saluted Xia Qi and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the dereliction of duty of Marquis Zhao needs to be dealt with lightly. Chen thinks that today's escape from the dragon vein in the border can only show that Liu Tianshi was not able to cut off the dragon vein and trap it to death, otherwise how could the dragon trapped here get out of trouble and hide for no reason?"
"Li Xuanmen, the border dragon vein has been trapped for more than a hundred years, if it wants to get out of trouble, it will be out of trouble a long time ago, how can it get out of trouble at this time?" Yuwen Fang saw Li Xuanmen speaking for Zhao Batian, and he retorted coldly
"At this time, Lord Yuwen seems to mean something, what do you mean by this time, and ask Lord Yuwen to solve my doubts?" Li Xuanmen said with a treacherous smile
When Yuwen Fang heard Li Xuanmen's words, he secretly screamed in his heart, and at this time, the old Xia Qi snorted coldly with a gloomy face, "Hmph, what kind of place is this place, Aiqing, is it the teahouse you are arguing about at will?
Whoa......
Xia Qi stood up angrily, the pearls in his crown slammed into each other with a crisp sound, Xia Qi looked down at the civil and military officials and said coldly, "What about the border dragon veins to get out of trouble? I am the true dragon emperor, the lord of the Great Xia Kingdom, and the master of this world!"
"Zhao Batian, it is not good for you to guard the dragon veins on the border, I will not ask you and the Zhao family for the time being, I will allow you to spend ten years to make meritorious contributions to the crime and find the elixir of immortality for me, if you can't find the elixir of immortality within ten years, I will definitely kill you!" Xia Qi's words were very domineering, but his mid-qi was very lacking.
"The criminal minister will definitely live up to the emperor's grace!" Zhao Batian knelt down to thank him, but when he lowered his head, he couldn't help frowning, if you want to get the immortal elixir in this world, you need a great chance, this is not something that you can get if you want to fight hard.
The elixir of immortality, the life-sustaining elixir in this world, how could it easily appear in the eyes of the world?
"Li Xuanmen, since you are trying to ensure that Zhao Batian is innocent, the matter of finding the elixir of immortality is also your share. If you can't find the elixir of immortality within ten years, you will choose an heir to inherit your throne!" Xia Qi stared at Li Xuanmen with wide eyes, and said coldly
Zhao Batian guarded Jizhou with millions of soldiers, and Li Xuanmen guarded Jingzhou with 500,000 sailors, and the good relationship between the two made the old emperor very taboo!
"The minister receives the order!" Facing Xia Qi's order, Li Xuanmen smiled and received the order.
Yuzhou is full of flowers in the spring season, and it is beautiful.
Three kilometers away from the magnificent palace, there is a good location with mountains and rivers, which is the gathering place of the nobles of the Great Xia Dynasty, where all kinds of unique attic courtyards are built, and the dignitaries who affect the fate of the entire Great Xia Dynasty live.
Zhao Batian and Li Xuanmen are foreign marquises, and there are also attics where they live in this place that represents the identity of dignitaries and nobles, which is a symbol of identity and power, and everyone who has a head and face in the Great Xia Dynasty will try their best to buy an attic here, if there is no attic here, you can't say how noble you are in front of others, how powerful.
"Xuanmen, this time I caused you to be tired. Zhao Batian apologized to Li Xuanmen in the attic where he lived
Li Xuanmen raised his glass and shook his head, and after drinking the wine in the cup, he said indifferently, "You and I have known each other for more than 100 years, do you still need to say anything about whether it is even related or not?"
Zhao Batian nodded approvingly, and he drank the wine in the cup very boldly. When Zhao Batian refilled Li Xuanmen's cup, Li Xuanmen lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, this is to let you and me go to find the legendary Yaochi Secret Realm and the overseas Lotus Peng Immortal Island, he wants to get the life-sustaining elixir, and wants to continue to hold the power of the court." ”
"People are afraid of death, and when you and I don't have much to live for, we will be so demanding about life-sustaining elixir!" Zhao Batian sighed
Li Xuanmen used a cyan spiritual power to wrap him and Zhao Batian in it, which was a green wood enchantment that could block the outside world from eavesdropping.
Li Xuanmen's Aoki enchantment was formed, and Zhao Batian squinted his eyes and smiled, "I haven't seen you for more than fifty years, and you have finally entered the realm of rebirth and become another god king of the Great Xia Dynasty!"
"Hehe, Batian, are you making fun of me? You don't know how many years you've been in this realm. Li Xuanmen shook his head modestly and said
Zhao Batian shook his head with a smile and said, "Xuanmen, this is at the foot of the imperial city, you use the Aoki enchantment to isolate the emperor's ears and eyes, I'm afraid you will innocently attract the emperor's suspicion." ”
"Suspicious?" Li Xuanmen said with a playful smile, "This time, the emperor asked me to search for a life-sustaining elixir with you, which is already a manifestation of suspicion to vigilance. I cut off his ears and eyes, and I only made him wary of me a little deeper. ”
As he spoke, Li Xuanmen put away his playful smile and said with a serious face, "Batian, you tell me the truth, did you sense it when the border dragon vein was out of trouble?"
Zhao Batian saw that Li Xuanmen was extremely serious, and he also solemnly spit out a word: "Yes!"
