Chapter 33: A New Day
After the dinner, the three ladies Xiao Biqiao, Du Yiling and He Yingman got together to study and decided to go shopping outside Miyagi together. On the night of the New Year's holiday, the capital is also relatively lively.
The three brothers who stayed in the palace gathered together in the ancestral shrine at this time. The ladies are sensible, and every year on the night of the New Year, the emperor and the princes will stay in the ancestral shrine for one night, chatting, drinking tea, and talking about what they want to say to their brothers in front of the tablets of the ancestors and ancestors.
There are only a few tablets in the ancestral hall of the Yanfeng royal family, and there are no tablets of all the royal family members here, mainly because they can't be placed. The Yanfeng royal family has gone through thousands of years, and there are more than 50 emperors alone, counting the princes of all generations, this ancestral shrine in the palace city really can't put these people.
Most of the tablets are placed in the ancestral shrine of the imperial tomb in the western suburbs of the capital, and in this ancestral shrine in the palace city, only the ancestors who founded the country are fought, and even the tablets of the fathers are not in this ancestral shrine.
However, since more than ten years ago, this ancestral shrine has been dedicated to a tablet of His Majesty's own brother -
Prince Yantian, Zhao Zongtian.
If Zhao Zongyang, who became the emperor, is the most "faced" of the four brothers, then his second brother is recognized as the strongest one among the four brothers. Even if it was the eldest brother Zhao Zongyun, he had actually been guarding the southern border before, until after the death of Zhao Zongtian, who was in charge of guarding the northern border, he left the southern border and went to the northern border.
When Zhao Zongyang was not yet fifteen years old, Zhao Zongtian had already made a name for himself among the people and major sects. Extremely high martial arts and a powerful mind allow Zhao Zongtian to stir up the storm no matter where he is.
On the premise of not using the power of the Yanfeng royal family, Zhao Zongtian used the men and horses organized by his own reputation to kill the most terrifying killer organization on the Zhengpian continent at that time, personally slashed the leader full of evil, and shook out all the evil things committed by this organization.
It doesn't matter if this shake is down, although this killer organization does not obey the orders of any country or coalition government, it has collected a lot of black money to help many bigwigs from all walks of life deal with things. When Zhao Zongtian, the dark side of these high-level leaders, was put on the table, all walks of life in the entire continent began to have a huge turmoil.
In the past, everyone was secretly doing evil, although anyone could guess in their hearts about the mastermind behind the scenes, but after all, there was no evidence, and there was no revenge, and on the surface, they should get by or get by.
But after the black accounts of the killer organization were announced, it was different, and many things had evidence, and it was possible to justifiably have a debtor.
How big is the impact of Zhao Zongtian's actions? The biggest one is to directly change the dynasty of a big country, and so big as to directly let three small countries join forces and fight a hegemonic country to the death.
As soon as this prince of Yanfeng made a move, he almost changed the pattern of the continent at that time. However, this was not Zhao Zongtian's purpose, he was not interested in what this continent would become at that time.
The reason why he wants to do such a big thing is simply to get the approval of his old father-in-law.
When he was wandering among the people, Zhao Zongtian met a woman who was two years younger than her. I won't go into detail about the specific process, anyway, it's a routine of rejoicing at home, these two young people and girls who didn't look at each other at first finally fell in love.
When Zhao Zongtian wanted to go to the girl's house to propose marriage, he knew that the person he liked was the daughter of the head of the largest sect in the mainland.
This is quite a good match for Zhao Zongtian, who is now the prince of the first powerful country in the mainland. Zhao Zongtian, who was full of confidence, prepared a lot of things, and went back to the sect with his beloved girl to propose marriage.
It's a pity that the sect master didn't even see him.
Although you are the prince of Yan Feng, and although Yan Feng is very good X, this does not mean that you are very good X, the daughter of other sects, it is impossible to marry a prince who has never heard of any reputation on the mainland.
The meaning of the sect master is that he didn't take a fancy to him Zhao Zongtian at all, and he didn't take Yan Feng in his eyes. Not only did he throw out all the gifts, but he also locked his daughter back in the sect.
Zhao Zongtian is so angry, it is reasonable, if he had a temper at that time, he would have asked Zhao Zongyun and Zhao Zongming to muttered about how the master of this sect pretended to be X, and the three of them might go directly to the sect with their hands and fight with others.
But Zhao Zongyun controlled his emotions, didn't people say that he was a prince with no reputation? Then he would make a big name and show this sect master with his nostrils facing the sky.
In this way, the number one killer organization in the continent fell into blood mold and became a tool used by Zhao Zongtian to make a name for himself.
The sect master never dreamed that the people of the Yanfeng royal family would be so bold, and they would become the biggest fame in a mess, and they would easily mess up the entire continent.
It's just that this didn't make the sect master who felt that he was the eldest and his second eldest change his mind, and when Zhao Zongtian went to ask for marriage for the second time, he directly hung him out of the door, and even threatened to marry his girl to the eldest son of another sect in two days.
Zhao Zongtian smiled when he heard this, took an envelope from his arms, and took out a sum of money and stuffed it into the hands of the person who came to deliver the message to him, so that he could hand it over to the master of the door.
After handing over these things, Zhao Zongtian turned around and left, and went directly back to Yanfeng Capital.
When he came back with the front foot, the team of the sect who proposed relatives followed on the back foot.
Zhao Zongtian looked at the team that came to propose marriage, and looked very proud. Of course he was proud, and in the envelope addressed to the sect master, he wrote in detail all the dirty things that the people in the sect had entrusted to the killer organization. Even most of the things written in the letter are unknown to the sect master.
Zhao Zongtian was not afraid that the sect master would not believe him, because as long as there was one thing in it that the sect master knew, then he had to compromise. This big sect is much more rancid than Zhao Zongtian imagined, and when he chose the killer organization to do it, it was to prepare for both. If the master of the door readily agrees to his proposal, then he, as the new aunt, will definitely help his father-in-law come out to clean these things.
However, this stupid X sect master not only broke his promise, but also married Zhao Zongtian's sweetheart to stimulate him, so Zhao Zongtian can't be blamed for not giving face. As soon as the envelope was handed over, he turned around and returned to Beijing. On the one hand, this sect is mainly to marry a girl sincerely, so it must be proposed to Yan Feng, and on the other hand, Zhao Zongtian is afraid that this sect master will be angry and angry, so he will send seventeen or eighteen masters to intercept him halfway......
Next, Zhao Zongtian and his beloved girl got married very smoothly. As the most powerful of the four brothers at that time, Zhao Zongtian took his wife to the north and guarded the stability of the north.
After Zhao Zongtian went to the northern border, the Ice Land Barbarians did attack the northern city wall once. However, the attacking barbarians were beaten badly by Zhao Zongtian. He ordered two huge caves to be dug into the rock walls on both sides of the valley. And after discovering that the barbarians had sent troops, they ambushed the two teams of soldiers in the cave.
When the ice barbarians began to attack the city wall, Zhao Zongtian personally led the soldiers in the cave and copied the chrysanthemums of the barbarian army.
After hundreds of years of fighting, the Ice Barbarians really never thought that these Yanfeng's "shrunken turtles" did not shrink on the city wall this time, but instead came out from behind their buttocks.
This time the barbarian army that came to attack was caught off guard, not only did Yan Feng's troops emerge behind them, but the defenders in the city wall also came out, blocking the barbarians in the valley.
In this battle, not only did he completely annihilate the ice barbarians who came to attack, but he even captured alive the leader of the barbarians and his son who was familiar with the battlefield.
Zhao Zongtian used the lives of these two people to coerce the Ice Land Barbarians to sign a treaty that they would not be allowed to invade for five hundred years, and he wanted to compensate Yan Feng for all the costs of building the city walls, as well as the use and maintenance costs of these city walls.
For Zhao Zongtian, he was really beautiful at that time, not only pacified the ice barbarians for a long time, but also soon had their son with his wife, the second prince Zhao Hongsheng.
According to the rules handed down by the ancestors of the Yanfeng royal family, all the royal children must be raised in the capital. This made Zhao Zongtian the most common prince in the capital (at this time, Zhao Zongyang had not yet succeeded to the throne).
However, it was so sudden. When Zhao Zongsheng was three years old, Zhao Zongtian, the number one master among the Yanfeng princes, was assassinated in the military camp in the north.
The enraged Yan Feng royal family used all their strength to investigate the matter thoroughly, but this matter was like being wrapped in countless vines, and no matter how they were, they could not tear through the layers of obstacles and touch the truth of the incident.
That year, this matter caused a lot of uproar, and in order to find out the truth, the Yanfeng royal family openly and secretly uprooted three suspicious forces on the mainland. But it's a pity that Zhao Zongtian died in the end.
And what is even more regrettable is that the wife who finally had a lover with Zhao Zongtian and finally became a family went crazy on the day after Zhao Zongtian's death.
At that time, the head of the sect had a cold face and came to the capital with people to take his daughter and son back.
Zhao Zongtian's wife said that after all, she is the daughter of someone else, and now she is crazy because she misses her deceased husband, although the royal family has the obligation to take care of the rest of her life, but the owner of the door has come to ask for someone in person, but he can hand him over.
However, Zhao Hongsheng is not good. This child is only three years old this year, and he has flesh and blood belonging to the Yanfeng royal family, and it is very likely that he will awaken the bloodline of Yan, and there is no possibility of handing it over to the door master at all.
After a stalemate for several months, the enraged owner of the door left with his daughter in his sleeves. Before leaving Beijing, he said something that the entire people of the capital could hear.
"Listen to the royal people of Yanfeng, if my grandson does not awaken the bloodline when he is five years old, then the old man will definitely come to bring people again!"
This sentence echoed five or six times over the entire capital, which was completely provocative to the Yanfeng royal family. But in terms of affection, Yan Fenghuang turned a blind eye to the provocative move.
In the history of Yanfeng, there is no prince who can awaken the bloodline of Yan and count it on two hands, how can Zhao Hongsheng say that he has not awakened if he has not awakened?
Then Zhao Hongsheng really didn't awaken, and he didn't awaken the bloodline of Yan until nearly half a year after his sixth birthday.
When the master of the sect came to ask for his grandson, the Yanfeng royal family was still in a state of confusion. People left the words to the entire capital back then, and they waited for more than half a year to come to the door to ask for someone, and the Yanfeng royal family couldn't bear it anymore, so they had to hand Zhao Hongsheng into the hands of his grandfather.
After leaving, Zhao Hongsheng never came back.
This is why Zhao Hongxing has never seen his second brother, he was taken away before he was born.
Speaking of which, the second prince Zhao Hongsheng is also eighteen years old this year, but he is actually only a few years younger than the eldest prince Zhao Hongming.
——————————————
In the ancestral hall, the three brothers of Zhao Zongyang replaced wine with tea and toasted Zhao Zongtian's tablet several cups. The leader of the Ice Barbarian Clan who was captured by Zhao Zongyun had already been interrogated and then directly executed.
It's not that their brothers are ruthless, but under careful questioning, it turned out that Zhao Zongtian's death was really related to the clues of the barbarians. Although the little commander didn't know much about it, he did know some useful information.
In a fit of rage, Zhao Zongming smashed the little leader's head with one palm.
Although the truth is still confusing, it is one step closer to the truth. Over the years, no one in this brother has given up pursuing this matter, and they will not let go of any fragments related to this matter, and they firmly believe that sooner or later, the truth of the matter will be completely pieced together.
Before you know it, the eastern sky is white, and the night of the New Year's Eve has passed, and a new day and a new year have arrived at the same time.
The three brothers of Zhao Zongyang raised the teacup in their hands for the last time, saluted Zhao Zongtian's token on the spiritual seat, and then put down the teacup and got up to leave the ancestral shrine.
"Brother, wait a little longer, we will avenge your revenge after all. ”
——————————————
Although the vigil is to stay up all night, in fact, Zhao Hongxing doesn't want to stay up late at all, and there is a high probability that he will die in his previous life.
After sending Le Aya away, Zhao Hongxing and Hongyi played backgammon for a while. To be honest, without mobile phones and the Internet, you can't make Zhao Hongxing stay up late without interest. After the bell tower in the capital rang the midnight bell, Zhao Hongxing fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was already dawn.
After a sigh, Zhao Hongxing was ready to get up. However, as soon as he finished washing, he heard someone calling him outside.
"Sixth brother, is the sixth brother up?" Le Aya's voice sounded a lot closer to him.
Zhao Hongxing was very proud, he felt that this should be the result of his frenzied favorability.
After getting dressed, Zhao Hongxing walked out of the house.
"What's the matter, Aya'er, what are you looking for my brother this morning?" said Zhao Hongxing with a smile.
"It's still early, it's almost noon, Sixth Brother. Le Aya corrected seriously, but then frowned, realizing that she didn't come to say this, "Fifth sister asked me to call you to the main gate of Miyagi." ”
"Go to the main gate?" Zhao Hongxing was puzzled, why did he go to Nandaemun early this morning?
Anyway, call yourself away, then hurry up. Zhao Hongxing took Hongyi and Le Aya to the south gate together.
When I arrived at the gate, Zhao Hongming and Zhao Hongzhe were dressed in ordinary clothes, and there were two small servants next to them leading two horses, carrying a few burdens on their backs.
On the other side, the queen, the princess and Zhao Zhongling were reluctantly surrounding Zhao Hongming and Zhao Hongzhe, constantly telling something.
"Okay, mother, mother, aunt, and fifth sister, it's not too early, my third brother and I really should go. Zhao Hongming said helplessly to the ladies around him.
"Yes, don't worry," Zhao Hongzhe patted his chest and said, "When I go out with my eldest brother, everything must be lost." ”
"Besides, the one I can't worry about the most is you. He Yingman said to Zhao Hongzhe: "You are the same as your father, you are a martial artist, you must see and think more when you go out, think more about your eldest brother to learn, don't think about anything and think about fighting first." ”
"Uh-huh, ahem. Zhao Zongming, who was named by his wife, coughed embarrassedly twice, and then said: "Ah, it's a good thing for this child to go out to practice, don't let the mother-in-law and mother's children grow up, the children will definitely deal with the problem in the way they are best at when they go outside." ”
"Shut up. He Yingman turned around and glanced at Zhao Zongming.
"Indeed, it's not too early, and it's time for this kid to go. Zhao Zongyun didn't say anything else, just looked at Zhao Hongzhe and said seriously, "Be careful in everything." ”
Zhao Hongming smiled slightly and arched his hand at his father, "Don't worry, father." ”
"You have to write to us often!" Du Yiling added.
Zhao Hongming held his mother's hand and nodded solemnly.
"What, what are the two brothers going to do?" Zhao Hongxing didn't understand what the two brothers were doing when they first arrived here.
"I went out with my big brother to go through the training. Zhao Hongzhe looked very happy and said to Zhao Hongxing with a grin.
"This ...... When are you going to come back?" Zhao Hongxing then asked.
"I'm going to do something, and I'm going to come back. Zhao Hongming touched the top of Zhao Hongxing's head, and then said to Zhao Hongwei: "When you come out next year, don't forget to come to us." ”
"No problem. Zhao Hongwei replied dryly.
Zhao Hongxing suddenly felt unfair, Lao Tzu would have to be an adult for several years, and when he went out to experience and increase his "performance", this brother might have done something big.
"Then father, my brother and I will say goodbye!" Zhao Hongming and Zhao Hongzhe bowed to Zhao Zongyang together.
"Let's go, I wish you all a triumphant return!" Zhao Zongyang waved his hand, and Zhao Hongming and Zhao Hongzhe turned over and got on their horses.
"Farewell!"
"Don't send it!"
Zhao Hongming and Zhao Hongzhe rode horses and left Miyagi from the small gate next to the south gate.
Although Zhao Hongxing didn't know where they were going, he knew that with the strength of these two, they would definitely do something earth-shattering.
When will I catch up with a fraction of them? Zhao Hongxing was very worried, he now felt that his fate was the same as that of the emperor's father, as the last son, he was destined to sit on the throne of this day.
Similarly, Zhao Zhongling is also worried. However, she was worried about things that were not the same as Zhao Hongxing.
Now there are two fewer people who can play mahjong with me.
The only person who really lives a carefree life is very limited, I'm afraid that only Zhao Zhongling is there.
