Section 29 Gambling a game

A cold light shot out of Zhan Feng's eyes, but he still needed to verify this kind of thing, and he couldn't easily identify Duan Lang as the shadow man. More than ten years have passed, and Zhan Feng doesn't dare to conclude that what Duan Lang did just now was the shadow of the shadow man's footwork.

Among the courtiers, the Marquis of Xining looked at Duan Lang with a vicious look in his eyes. At this time, people seem to have forgotten that Duan Lang is the son of the Marquis of Xining, and what people congratulate is only the Heavenly Master Palace, and the Marquis of Xining Mansion seems to have faded out of people's sight. Zhao Zhuofeng felt as if something was blocked, he felt that such an honor should belong to him Zhao Zhuofeng, not a wild man from a mountain village like Duan Lang.

Bai Ruokong's eyes kept looking at Duan Lang and Zhao Zhuofeng, and when he saw Zhao Zhuofeng's jealous eyes, Bai Ruokong sighed slightly. He knew that the Xining Marquis Mansion had missed a good talent, and if the prince continued, he was afraid that even the Heavenly Master Hall would have to stand on the opposite side of the Xining Marquis Mansion.

Anyway, this year's competition in front of the palace brought Duan Lang into everyone's sight. Maybe it won't be long before Duan Lang will shine among the young heroes of Great Xia. Especially for a person like him who has no background, many courtiers will throw an olive branch. Bai Ruokong was very sorry, but he was also very helpless.

Duan Lang's skills were shocked, and no one dared to go up to challenge again. Those who can come to this kind of place are the sons of various prefectures, and no one wants to lose face if they are not sure.

Emperor Yuning was in a good mood, this battle Heavenly Master Hall was really majestic, coupled with his secret support, Emperor Yuning believed that the Heavenly Master Hall would soon become a pole among the courtiers.

"Wei Dong, since no one is challenged, then Xuan Duan Lang stepped forward to listen to the seal."

Wei Dong made a promise and stepped forward a few steps, "Xuan~ Duan Lang, the commander of the Heavenly Master Palace, come forward and listen to the seal~!" ”

Duan Lang stepped down from the high platform, stepped on the machete and walked to the bottom of the steps, knelt on one knee, and made a military attaché salute.

"Duan Lang, the commander of the Black Armor Guard of the Heavenly Master Palace, meet Your Majesty!"

"Yes, yes, I have such a man in Daxia, not only has I won glory for your Heavenly Master Palace, but I am also very pleased."

Emperor Yuning said, looking at the machete on Duan Lang's waist. Although this machete is rather peculiar, it is not a good steel at first glance. Emperor Yuning was happy in his heart, thought about it and continued.

"Reward~ A Xuantie war knife, one hundred taels of gold, and the title of Imperial Cavalry Guard. Duan Lang, two days later, Shangguan Aiqing will go to the northern border pass to appease the soldiers on my behalf, and you will use this Xuantie war knife to protect your family. If there is a mistake, I will ask you. ”

Duan Lang clenched his fists, "Your Majesty, Duan Lang will definitely live up to the emperor's grace." ”

Emperor Yuning smiled and nodded, waving his hand to let Duan Lang retreat. Emperor Yuning stood up and raised his wine glass. The ministers stood up one after another, and followed suit.

"Today, I have ascended the throne for seventeen years. Dear Aiqing, I hope that you will work together to protect my country. Come, I'll have a drink with you! ”

"I wish His Majesty the Emperor ~long life without borders~!"

The ministers in the palace toasted together, and the atmosphere reached a climax. However, Du Yushi Wu Guangguang strangely found that Xiangguo was very low-key from beginning to end. Presumably, he didn't even step forward to communicate with Emperor Yuning in private. And what replaced him was the sudden rise of Shangguan Xuanwu.

The banquet continued, and the civilian, military and military generals also began to fight together. Emperor Yuning drank a lot, and was helped back by Wei Dong and other guards. As soon as Emperor Yuning left, Xiangguo Yuban, who was supposed to preside over the overall situation, also returned to the mansion under the pretext of being unwell. As soon as he withdrew, Feng Zhun and others from the military department also left their seats.

During the entire banquet, Zhang Ruming, who was dressed in a red robe, became the focus of everyone. Du Yushi Wu Guangguang Hao Chengjian, Dali Temple Qing Fan Cheng and others congratulated Shangguan Tianshi one after another.

In particular, Fan Cheng, the Qing of Dali Temple, threw himself to the ground for the five bodies admired by Shangguan Tianshi. In a few days, Shangguan Tianshi not only accepted the former prisoner as a junior brother, but also became a surveyor in one fell swoop holding Shang Fang's sword. Especially at today's enthronement ceremony, Shangguan Heavenly Master pressed Yu Ban and didn't even dare to say a word. These ministers, who were usually suppressed by Yu Ban, suddenly felt that they had found their backbone.

Du Yushi Wu Guangguang was also very emotional, once he thought that except for the Marquis of Xining, no one in Daxia could compete with Yu Ban. However, the Marquis of Xining has lived in Xining for a long time and is not in Kyoto, and these courtiers with a sense of justice have all been suppressed by the ban. Now, come out with a surveyor and give them hope again.

The excitement of the day finally calmed down, and some of the Kyoto adults were happy and some were bitter, and some were simply envious, jealous and hateful. But in any case, the one who benefited the most today was the Heavenly Master Palace.

The palace maids and eunuchs in the palace were busy cleaning up the mess, and in an inconspicuous corner of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Zhan Feng stood under the tree like a sharp sword. After a while, the chief eunuch Wei Dong walked over.

"Master Zhan, if you don't go back to rest after a day of hard work, why do you ask our family to come over?"

Zhan Feng looked around and said in a low voice, "Chief Wei, do you still remember the battle of Jing Jishan back then?" ”

"Jing Jishan?" Wei Dong was stunned, "Of course I remember, why did Lord Zhan mention this?" ”

Zhan Feng looked up at the treetops and said lightly, "Back then, you were in charge of a frontal attack, while I was in ambush in the back mountain. Later, after chasing and killing the Shadow for several years, I thought that this matter had long passed, but I didn't expect that today, I suddenly thought of it. ”

"Lord Zhan, the shadow masters of the world are basically extinct, and they don't have to worry about it. Even if a few fish slip through the net, they won't be able to set off any waves. His Majesty had just ascended the throne and the political situation was unstable, so it was necessary to eradicate this cancer. Now His Majesty's country is as stable as a rock, even if that period of heaven is alive, it will not help. Wei Dong said sharply.

"Manager Wei, there is a footwork among the shadow people called ~ ghost shadow footwork, I don't know if Manager Wei still has an impression?" Zhan Feng asked.

"Ghost footwork?" Wei Dong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Our family rarely makes moves, and we haven't had much contact with shadow artists before, and last time Jing Jishan was also a group attacker. The ghost footwork you mentioned, our family is not impressed. Lord Zhan, you called our family just to ask about this? ”

"Manager Wei, today in the ring, how do I feel that the footwork performed by Duan Lang is very similar to the ghost footwork. What's more~ his surname is Duan! Zhan Feng looked at Wei Dong with deep meaning,

Wei Dong's eyes gathered slightly, "What, what do you mean~ He is from the Duan family?" ”

"Don't forget, the beast took a child away at that time."

Wei Dong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "Master Zhan, our family thinks you are too worried." There is not only one family surnamed Duan in the world, besides, our family has sent troops to search around Jingji Mountain for more than half a month, you won't suspect that our family is lazy for greed. ”

Wei Dongxin said that it was not certain whether there was that child or not, and at that time he felt that Zhanfeng was telling a joke. The fierce beast takes away things just to eat, is it possible that the fierce beast is the same as a human, and when the child grows up, he will worship the master, this fierce beast is too unambitious. So after coming back, Wei Dong didn't play this matter to Emperor Yuning at all.

When Zhan Feng heard this, he hurriedly said, "No, no, I will never doubt the hard work of Manager Wei." It's just ~ forget it, maybe I'm really worried about it. ”

Zhan Feng didn't say any more, on the surface, they seemed to be very close to each other over the years, but with the spread of Emperor Yuning's reign, Wei Dong gradually broke away from them. Even sometimes, Wei Dong couldn't even listen to Yu Ban's words. After all, Wei Dong is now the chief eunuch, which is very different from the personal eunuch who was only in charge of the prince Yuning.

Zhan Feng left the palace, and he could only verify this matter slowly, because there were some things that were inconvenient for more people to know.

Two days later, Xuanwu, the Heavenly Master Palace's Heavenly Inspector, personally led five hundred black-armored guards to the northern border pass. Duan Lang was wearing armor and had a royal Xuantie sword pinned to his waist, quite like a general who was about to go on an expedition. The Celestial Master's car is also very gorgeous, with a thick cashmere felt blanket in it, and you can't feel the bumps at all when you gallop.

Before leaving, Yu Ban, on behalf of the Son of Heaven, led hundreds of officials from the court to send them off at the city gate. In the crowd of onlookers, Zhou Guangji watched Duan Lang silently with an iron crutch. He had already sent Zhou Long and the three of them to the border pass in advance, although Duan Lang was only responsible for protecting the Sky Survey Prison, but Zhou Guangji knew that the generals of the border gates everywhere were very arrogant and domineering, and he had to give Duan Lang some information in advance.

Watching the team of the Heavenly Master Hall gradually move away, the team of courtiers also slowly dispersed. The city gate, Minister Guo Yuban, did not immediately sit in the sedan chair, but stood by the sedan chair and waited for someone. After a while, Feng Zhun, the squire of the military department, walked over.

"How's it going, is it all arranged?" Yu Ban asked quietly.

"Don't worry, Lord Xiangguo, I have sent a secret envoy to the northern camp two days ago, and General Hu will know what to do after seeing the secret letter."

Yu Ban nodded, "Well, it's good, I've already arranged it on the border Yushan Pass, and they will take the initiative to provoke a war at the right time." Moreover, I also asked people to secretly report this news to the Beiming side, and I believe they will definitely be prepared. ”

"Lord Xiangguo, aren't you afraid that this Shangguan Xuanwu will do bad things? Don't forget that he's a chincha? ”

"Chincha? Hehe, in the eyes of those border soldiers who deal with life and death, Qin Cha is a fart. In this matter, I have already greeted Fan Lining, the chief soldier of the border pass. If Shangguan Xuanwu doesn't know what to do, then deal with it yourself. Yu Ban said disdainfully.

"Lord Xiangguo, the responsibility of losing the border pass is not small, if you don't get it right, we are the sinners of the Great Xia Kingdom." Feng Zhun said with a heavy heart.

"Little Beiming doesn't have to worry, as long as the two countries fight, Emperor Yuning can only rely on you and me. The war dragged him on for a year and a half, and when the time comes, you and I will raise the three princes to conquer the Northern Ming Dynasty.

When the three princes with heavy troops returned, it was time for him to make Xian. Once the three princes are successfully assisted in ascending to the throne, you and I will have at least twenty years of good life to enjoy. Brother Feng, if you become a big thing, don't be confined to small sections. ”

Feng Zhun smiled bitterly, "It's still Lord Xiangguo who sees far, since this is the case, Feng Zhun will take the risk to gamble with Lord Xiangguo." ”

Yu Ban smiled sinisterly, patted Feng Zhun on the shoulder, and turned around to get into the sedan chair. Watching the team of Xiangguofu enter the city gate, Feng Zhun looked up at the brightly armored guards above the city head, and sighed slightly.

"Alas~! The sword and the soldiers were together, and the people suffered. I hope that God will not punish me too harshly. ”

Feng Zhun regretted it a little in his heart, but since he had done it, he could only follow Yu Ban to gamble. If you win the bet, you will be blessed, and if you lose the bet, then wait for the Feng family to be wiped out.
