Chapter 68 Those who know their fate do not complain about the sky

Inside the box are the letters of the civil and military officials and the Star King, as well as the evidence of the Star King's rebellion, Wu Yidong knew that the emperor was still the emperor, and on the surface he was overtaken by the Star King and Hou Pingpan, but in fact, there were still many people who stood on the emperor's side, after all, the emperor was orthodox.

The emperor's majestic gaze swept over everyone present, the wind rose, the snow danced, his clothes fluttered, and his eyes were extremely resolute: "The box is full of letters and tokens, and everyone here has them. When I was seriously ill, you thought about the great summer for all generations, and some thoughts were also human nature, now that I am in good health, I have to settle accounts for the past today......"

Everyone's hearts were in shock, and many people subconsciously looked back, there was nothing behind them, and there were no warriors standing with swords, just waiting for the emperor's order, the hand raised the knife and fell, and the head fell to the ground.

Although Xia Xiang had already guessed that the emperor had already made a layout, he still didn't expect that the emperor would be so well prepared, and he actually collected the letters of the ministers of the court and the star king, but he didn't dare to conclude that the emperor was going to kill all the people involved in the rebellion today. If that were the case, the dunes would be bleeding today.

"Someone, open the box." The emperor gave an order, Chang Guan hurriedly opened the box, the emperor reached out and picked up a letter, only opened it for a look, and then threw it back into the box, "Ladies and gentlemen, although I have obtained these letters with the help of Li Zhongcheng and Song Shilang, I have only opened one so far. I will not say whose letter it was. Fire comes ......"

Chang Guan hurriedly handed over the torch.

The emperor threw the torch into the letter, and the fire burst into flames in an instant. The emperor laughed: "You and I have been together for more than ten years, and there is neither suspicion nor distraction, since I have asked you to wait for my herdsmen, I should trust you and others." People are not sages, who can be without fault, know mistakes can be corrected, and good is great. The past, in the land of the sand dunes, was burned down by fire, and it was written off from then on. ”

"Long live the emperor!"

An old minister was grateful, fell to his knees on the snow, and burst into tears: "When the old minister first took charge, the emperor first ascended to the throne. Now the emperor is in his prime, but the old minister is already dying. Every time the old minister thinks of the events of the year, he is always grateful for the emperor's grace. The old minister repented that he shouldn't have done it at the beginning, the emperor, the old minister knew that he was wrong, please cure the old minister's sin. ”

Then several more people knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that he is wrong." ”

The Star King's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he smiled, got up and left his seat, drew a sword, and stepped forward. When Manta saw this, he drew his sword and was about to strike.

Everyone was taken aback, what did the Star King want?

The emperor looked calm and looked at the Star King coldly.

The Star King smiled indifferently: "Second brother, when I was a child, you and my brother often competed in swords, and today you are the emperor, and the third brother does not dare to compete with the second brother again, and is willing to dance the sword to help the fun." ”

Song Chaodu said: "His Royal Highness the Star King, it is better for you to dance alone than to dance with many people, and one person dances the sword with the suspicion that Xiang Zhuang dances the sword with the intention of Pei Gong, and it just so happens that the minister also has Yaxing, and he is willing to accompany the Star King!" ”

The Star King squinted his eyes: "This king didn't know that Song Shilang could also dance swords?" ”

Song Chaodu laughed: "Although the minister is not as good as Li Taibai in the top three in the Tang Dynasty master list, he can also have some superficial martial arts. As he spoke, he stood up and came into the middle of the field.

Xia Xiang motioned to Mantuo to pay attention to the Star King's every move: "The Star King's sword dance, I'm afraid there are other plans, Mantuo Lady, you should be careful." ”

The emperor's act of burning the letter really surprised Xia Xiang and surprised Xia Xiang, but after thinking about it again, he also understood the emperor's tolerance and hard work. The civil and military officials are also secular people, and the star king is expected to succeed to the throne as the new king, who doesn't want to get closer first, and it is better to seek a good future in the future. And the emperor is not to blame for the past, and he also burned letters, which can not only show the breadth of the emperor's heart, but also buy people's hearts, killing two birds with one stone.

The Star King and Song Chaodu danced the sword together, the swordsmanship of the two was not bad, the Star King was aggressive and aggressive, and Song Chaodu was calm and calm, advancing and retreating.

After dancing a few moves, suddenly there was the sound of people neighing and horses in the wind, the sound came from far away in the forest, and it was far and near in the sound of wind and snow.

Xia Xiang's face changed, and Lian Ruohan, Zheng Shan and others beside him were also shocked, and Cao Shu stood up with a shout: "Someone is making a rebellion? ”

Ye Muping looked calm, and pulled Cao Shujun: "Don't worry, sit down, even if someone rises up, you can't fight and can't escape, it's better to sit still." ”

Cao Shujun glared at Ye Muping: "Ye Zhenren, even if you can't escape from the fight, you can't sit still, right?" ”

"Sitting still does not necessarily mean sitting still, but it can also be the same as adapting to change." Ye Muping smiled, "Don't worry, the show has just started." ”

Some of the ministers were restless, some were looking around, some were terrified, and some were so frightened that their legs trembled, but the emperor still watched the sword dance of the Star King and Song Chaodu with great interest as if he had not heard the shouts of killing.

"The sword dance of the two is still a little less lively, and the two of them will dance the sword again." The Star King danced to the end, the sword flower shook, and shouted, "Yan Hao, where is Fang Shi Niang?" ”

As soon as the words fell, two figures fell from the sky, and a man and a woman appeared in the field. The man was dressed in black and held a lancet. The woman was dressed in white and held a long sword.

"Yan Hao! Fang Shi Niang! Xia Xiang was taken aback, and looked at it, Yan Hao and Fang Shi Niang had red faces and red ears, and their eyes were dull, like puppets.

"Strange thing, how could Yan Hao and Fang Shi Niang seem to be delirious?" Xia Xiangqi said.

Mantuo frowned slightly, and stared for a moment: "The two of them have been poisoned by the lost soul. Those who lose their souls and poison are at the mercy of poison within two hours, lose their souls, become puppets, and their skills skyrocket. Two hours later, all the meridians of his body were broken and he died. ”

"It's a pity, poor ......" Xia Xiang was halfway through his words, and suddenly his tone changed greatly, "Mantuo, save the emperor quickly." ”

Yan Hao and Fang Shi Niang's swords intersected, and Qi Qi stabbed at the emperor. Song Chaodu wanted to come to the rescue, but he was one step too late, and besides, he was not as strong as Yan Hao and Fang Shi Niang. Seeing that Yan Hao was about to stab the emperor with a knife, a cold light flashed in Mantuo's hand, and a flying knife came out.

Yan Hao didn't dodge or dodge, letting the flying knife sink into his chest, his face was hideous, his eyes were bloody, and he rushed towards the emperor like a fierce god. The emperor didn't have much panic, took a step back, and at this time, Mantuo arrived and kicked Yan Hao's body.

Yan Hao was kicked away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Mantuo stood firm, Fang Shi Niang's long sword approached within three feet in front of him. In a hurry, Mantuo's right hand shot like lightning, and successively inserted three flying knives into Fang Shi Niang's shoulder and abdomen, but Fang Shi Niang was unconscious, and still pounced.

Ye Muping also flew out, wanting to block Shi Niang below for Mantuo, but unexpectedly, the Star King laughed fiercely, and stabbed Ye Muping in the chest with the long sword in his hand. Ye Muping fought with the Star King with the strength of one person, naturally it was not a problem, who knew that the Star King had already prepared, and with a roar, Gao Jianyuan, who was dressed in disguise, suddenly came out of the crowd, holding a spear, and stabbed Ye Muping in the back with a sword.

Ye Muping suffered from the enemy on his back and was too busy to take care of himself, so he naturally couldn't take care of Mantuo. If it were normal, Mantuo would be able to support one against two for a while, but now Yan Hao and Fang Shi Niang are like ghosts, and they don't know pain and are not afraid of death, so it will be difficult for her to deal with it. No one thought that the Star King would be so ruthless, and he would not hesitate to use the lives of the two masters to give it a go.

When the situation was extremely urgent, Xia Xiang shouted: "Fang Shi Niang, Yan Hao has slandered your innocence, how can you be embarrassed with him?" ”

A shout was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Fang Shi Niang's footsteps faltered, she stood suddenly, stunned for a moment, as if she remembered something, a distorted and painful look appeared on her face, suddenly, she let out a long roar, flew forward, and fell with a sword in her hand......

A stream of blood gushed into the sky, and Yan Hao's head rolled out more than three feet away, and it just fell at Gao Jianyuan's feet. Gao Jianyuan was stunned for a moment, the cold light flashed in front of him, and a long sword pierced through his heart!

Fang Shi Niang kicked Gao Jianyuan's corpse, laughed, flew up, and was in mid-air, but suddenly lost all his strength, sprayed blood, and then fell headlong.

In the blink of an eye, he lost two masters and a big boost, the Star King was weak at this time, where was Ye Muping's opponent, he was hit in the chest by Ye Muping's dust, and he spat blood and fell to the ground.

"Second brother......" The Star King looked at the emperor, "I'm not wrong, it's you who are wrong." If you hadn't been unintentional, and you hadn't been bent on finding the whereabouts of Xian'er's mother and son, you wouldn't have been poisoned and sick by me. If you didn't deliberately let off wind after your illness so that the brothers thought that they intended to win the throne, they wouldn't have killed each other, they all blamed you, and blamed you for playing with your imperial tricks! ”

The emperor smiled generously: "Third brother, now you blame the second brother for playing with the emperor's tricks, when you poisoned the second brother, did you ever have half a brotherly feeling?" When you were recruiting troops and buying people to kill people and goods in Zhending for the throne, did you ever think about the people of Li in Great Xia? When you and Hou Pingpan searched for the common people in the name of the new law, did you ever think that I was the son of the Great Summer? You just want to win the throne wholeheartedly, only care about your own selfishness, and only know how to mess with power, how can you ever cherish and care for the people? Do you know why I didn't take you down in the capital? It's just because I still want to give you a chance to turn back, I don't want my brothers to kill each other, I don't want to shake the foundation of Great Xia, I don't want to shed blood in the capital, and I am ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors! ”

"It's a pity that to this day you are still obsessed, and you still want to borrow troops from the Bolingcui clan to do misdeeds, and let people assassinate me. Do you know that the men and horses of the Boling Cui clan have been intercepted and killed in the forest by the Qinghe Cui clan! ”

"Impossible!" The Star King still didn't believe that it was his trick to borrow troops from the Boling Cui clan, but in fact, the men and horses of the Boling Cui clan had already been ambushed in Wujiazhuang, which was less than ten miles away from the sand dunes, and it only took half an hour to kill.

"Report!"

A man and a horse galloped from the dark wind and snow, and the man on the horse was covered in blood and carried several human heads. He rushed to the field, threw the head, and bowed down: "Your Majesty, the minister has beheaded the traitor Cui Bi, the head of the Boling Cui family, Li Zhi of the Li family of Taiyuan, and Zheng Mingrui of the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the more than 1,000 soldiers and horses led by the Boling Cui family have all been destroyed. ”

"How so?" The Star King's face was like ashes, and he fell to the ground in despair, "It's over, everything is over, I didn't expect that this king was so completely defeated!" In this case, the heavens will destroy this king, and this king will admit defeat. ”

The Star King jumped up suddenly, the long sword in his hand fluttered, and rushed towards the emperor. Mantuo hurriedly made a move to block it, but unexpectedly, the Star King actually shook a shot, and he fell to the ground on one side of his body, just pounced on Yan Hao's lancet.

A knife through the heart!

Hou Pingpan and Cui Xiang knew that they were guilty, so they hurriedly knelt on the ground. The emperor didn't look at the two of them, and as soon as the star king died, the two of them were already sourceless water, so there was nothing to worry about. waved his hand and asked the two to take away.

King Jing, King Qing, King Yun, and King Seeing came to the Star King, and several of them shook their heads and sighed, or sneered, or panicked, or disagreed. The snow tightened and the blood on the ground was quickly covered by the snow as if nothing had happened.

Xia Xiang rescued the dying Fang Shi Niang back into the camp, and when he saw that Fang Shi Niang's breath was weak, he knew that it was not good, so he hurriedly asked, "Why did you kill Xia Langjun?" ”

"I am on Master's orders." Fang Shi Niang is about to die, and her words are also kind, "I am an orphan, and it was the master who raised me as an adult and taught me martial arts on Kunlun Mountain. When I went down the mountain, the master asked me to kill Xia Xiang, saying that although Xia Xiang was the pillar of Great Xia, he was also an ominous person, although he would save countless people from fire and water, he would also make countless people homeless and let countless people die in the war. So she didn't want Xia Xiang to fight and kill countless people everywhere, so it was better to kill Xia Xiang first, so that there would be a clear breeze and bright moon in Great Xia. It's a pity that I have been entrusted by my master. Master, I'm sorry for you! ”

"Who is your master?" Xia Xiang asked anxiously.

"I don't know her name either, I just know that she's a fairy......" Fang Shi Niang's eyes flashed with a strange look, just like the instant light when the lamp was about to go out, and then the brilliance dimmed and went out.

The next day, the emperor promoted Song Chaodu to Dali Siqing, Li Dingshan was the Shaoyin of Shangjing Mansion, and the original Shaoyin of Shangjing Mansion was promoted to Shangjing Mansion Yin to replace the dead Star King. Song Chaodu, together with Li Dingshan and Zheng Shan, was jointly responsible for the trial of the cases of Hou Pingpan and Cui Xiang. The emperor decreed that the cases of Hou Pingpan and Cui Xiang do not need to be too extensive.

In addition to Hou Pingpan and Cui Xiang, who were exiled for 3,000 miles, Pei Shuozhang, the magistrate of Shile County, was reduced to the people, and Chengtian Qing of Shile County, Xu Heguang of Zhending County, and Yang Jiang of Zhusi were sentenced to beheading. and Fu Ke case, several key criminals, and at the same time beheaded.

Zhang Hou and other people who were newly attached to the Star King, but the emperor did not pursue them. It's just that after this incident, Zhang Hou was frightened and caught cold, and he couldn't afford to get sick. It was Xia Xiang who begged Mr. Jin Jia to come forward to treat Zhang Hou, and after taking the medicine, Zhang Hou was slightly better, but he refused to be grateful to Xia Xiang. It's still time to thank Xia Xiang for his kindness.

Chapter 69 wants to talk about it

A few days later, the emperor returned to Beijing. Countless people searched in the forest, but found nothing, and the emperor was persuaded by Ye Muping to extinguish his mind. After learning that Fang Shi Niang's master was a fairy far away in Kunlun Mountain, he moved the idea of going to Kunlun Mountain again, but fortunately he was persuaded by Jin Jia and Ye Muping again.

When the emperor and his entourage set off, the sky was clear, the sand dunes were all covered with thick snow, and the bloodstains of the past were long gone, only a white and fresh world.

The mighty team walked out for a long time before two people walked out of the forest, one of them was like a fairy, and his white clothes were even more white and flawless against the background of the snow. There is a person next to her, although she is dressed ordinarily, she also has a luxurious atmosphere that cannot be concealed.

If Xia Xiang was here, he would have jumped forward and knelt on the ground, crying to the woman dressed in ordinary clothes: "Mother, why don't you see Xiang'er? ”

That's right, she is Song Dingniang, who has disappeared for a long time.

Song Dingniang looked at the team that disappeared into the sky, looked lonely, looked down at the chaotic footprints on the snow, and asked in a low voice: "Fairy, why don't you meet the emperor?" Why don't you let me meet Xiang'er? ”

"What's the use of seeing?" The fairy looked indifferent, the scarf on her face was blown by the wind, but only a pair of bright eyes were revealed, leaving no trace of face, her voice was as cold as the snow on the tree, "My fate with him is over, you and Xia Xiang are also fateful, Song Dingniang, don't have wishful thinking, if you still want him to live in the world, you will never see him again." ”

"Fairy, since I have already separated from Xiang'er, why did I send Fang Shi Niang to kill him? Why are you so ruthless? Song Dingniang complained slightly.

The fairy's eyes were still indifferent: "Don't blame me for being ruthless, heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs, Xia Xiang is not only an auspicious person for the emperor when he was killed, but also an ominous person for the people of Great Xia." Although it is the emperor's misfortune to kill Xia Xiang, it is the luck of the people of Daxia. ”

"Xiang'er is dedicated to the people, how can he be an ominous person for the people of Great Xia?"

"Xia Xiang will have a heart of disobedience in the future, and he will rebel sooner or later. When the time comes, the soldiers will be together, and the lives will be ruined. ”

"How can he be disobedient?" Song Dingniang suddenly remembered something, "How could he raise an army to rebel, he is obviously ......"

Before she could finish speaking, the fairy waved her hand: "Needless to say, I can stop killing him for the time being, but whether I will spare his life in the future depends on what he does." ”

A startled bird flew by, and the snow fell on the trees, and landed on the fairy and Song Dingniang, but the two of them did not move, looking at the team that disappeared into the sky.

A few days later, the convoy arrived in Zhending City, due to the fatigue of the road, and the snow and slippery roads, the emperor decided to stay in Zhending City for a few days.

Cui Xiang was dismissed, and the prefect of Zhending was vacant, because of Xia Xiang's meritorious escort, the emperor not only rewarded him heavily, but also promoted Xia Xiang to the prefect of Zhending. After being recommended by Xia Xiang, Ma Zhanguo was promoted to the county governor and Ding Ke was promoted to the county lieutenant. The two were ecstatic.

Because the Star King had the deepest layout in Zhending, the emperor personally read the file, and when he found out about Liu Changting's underground bank, because Liu Changting was beheaded Xie Huagai's whereabouts were unknown, there was no witness. When Xia Xiang was frowning, Shen Liangren, who had been waiting for Xia Xiang's return at the county office, informed Xia Xiang that he had caught Li Xiaosi in Xiajiazhuang.

Li Xiaosi's arrest made Xia Xiang overjoyed, and the emperor personally interrogated Li Xiaosi. In front of the emperor, Li Xiaosi was so frightened that he almost collapsed to the ground, and explained the matter of the Star King's accumulation of wealth in Zhending, and said that if it weren't for Xia Xiang's timely investigation of Fu Ke's case that led to Wu Yidong's purchase of military rations, and then there was a good situation often restraining Guangjin Commercial Bank, the Star King would have grown up in Zhending, and at least more than 100,000 soldiers and horses would have been gathered. Once more than 100,000 soldiers and horses start an incident, they will be covered with corpses.

The emperor was greatly moved, and after learning that Li Xiaosi was arrested by a deserter, he met with Shen Liangren again. The emperor praised Shen Liangren's righteous deeds very much, Shen Liangren was at ease in Xiajiazhuang and didn't want to go back to his hometown, the emperor rewarded Shen Liangren and gave him another background.

Before leaving, the emperor also summoned Mantuo. The sight of Manta stepping forward to save him was something he never forget.

"What does the lady of Manta want, just ask." For some reason, the emperor always felt that the mantle looked a little similar to the fairy.

"Your Majesty, the small people don't ask for rewards, they just want to have a landscape and countryside in Fujian where they can live."

"There is a mountain in Anxi, Fujian, which is shaped like the palm of a hand, and I will give it the name of Mantuo Mountain, and reward you."

"Your Majesty."

Mantuo later left Xia Xiang, came to Mantuo Mountain, and planted tea leaves on the entire mountain, which was named Mantuo tea. Later, Mantuo tea was introduced into Beijing, and the emperor personally inscribed it, and it became famous for a while, becoming one of the top ten famous teas in Daxia. Legend has it that Mantuo lived in seclusion in Mantuo Mountain all his life, guarding the camellia trees and the years in the mountains, whether this is really the case, it is not known, anyway, Mantuo disappeared later.

Because Mantuo rescued the lost mountain people many times in Mantuo Mountain, she was called Mantuo Niangniang.

Xia Xiang saw off the emperor and sent him to the north of the city. The emperor looked good and said, "Governor Xia, when you and Lian Niangzi get married, I will be the officiant." ”

Xia Xiang smiled: "Thank you to the emperor, the ministers are afraid." ”

"I'm not a casual marryman, I have two things for you to do." In the emperor's smile, there seemed to be a hint of conspiracy.

Xia Xiang struck a spirit: "Your Majesty, please speak." ”

"I have no children under my knees, I heard Mr. Jin Jia say that you have a lot of research on medical Taoism, and I ordered you to develop a prescription that can give birth to children, and it is called Duozi Duofu Pill, there must be no mistake."

All right...... Xia Xiang secretly scolded Jin Jia in his heart, but the emperor spoke, and he could only respond.

"There is another thing......" The emperor's expression was a little more worried, "I and the fairy once gave birth to a son, this son is in the people, I don't know where the person is, from now on, you will secretly find the whereabouts of this son for me, once found, I remember your great achievement, and the king worships the prime minister." ”

Xia Xiang didn't know where to start, and was about to excuse himself, the emperor said: "I helped Lian Niangzi to lay a great good time, and now the good times have become her dowry, you are sitting back and enjoying it, and you should do something for me." There are often commercial houses all over Daxia, which is the most convenient way to find people. ”

Xia Xiang had nothing to say: "Minister...... Yes, sir! ”

"Although Zhang Hou has the fault of relying on the Star King, he is also a talent, and I want to appoint him as the city of Lezhi County." The emperor's face was indifferent, the wind was like a knife, he stood tall in the snow, and his momentum was outstanding, "You don't have to get along with Zhang Hou, and if I can only choose one of the princes to inherit the throne, Xia Xiang, which prince do you say has the most virtue as the son of heaven?" ”

Xia Xiang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, was the emperor testing which prince he was close to, or did he want to take down the next prince by pacifying the star king? The emperor's mind is really unfathomable.

After sending the emperor away, Xia Xiang suddenly found that Xia Lai and Xia were gone. Hurriedly asked Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu said that the emperor had let the two of them take away and wanted the two to serve as guards. Although Xia Xiang didn't say anything, he always felt that something was wrong, and the emperor seemed to be on guard against him.

Sure enough, Xia Xiang and Lian Ruohan returned to the county office, but found that Xiao Jia was also gone, and when they asked, they found out that Xiao Jia was also taken to the capital by the emperor, saying that the emperor appreciated Xiao Jia's talent and let Xiao Jia enter the palace as a female official, and Xiao Jia entered the palace as a female official at the same time.

What big game is the emperor playing next?

Xia Xiang couldn't guess the emperor's intentions, and he didn't bother to think about it, anyway, his affairs were over for the time being, and he could rest for a while. No matter what the emperor's plans are or what he is arranging for, at least he can not think about it for the time being.

However, Xia Xiang always felt that maybe it wouldn't be long before something big would happen......
