Chapter 19: Ziwei Emperor Xingming
The night gradually enveloped Xianyang, the capital of the Great Qin Empire, and the noisy city gradually fell silent. Today's material life in China is very monotonous, even in the Han and Tang dynasties, there is no night market, the Tang Dynasty has the so-called ban, at night there will be soldiers locked the door of the market, one is because of the material life is poor, the other is because of safety.
Xianyang, which is silent in the dark night, is undercurrents surging inside. Previously, because of the rebellion in Surabaya and other counties, it was already a people's heart to raise troops against Qin Xianyang, but this time Hu Haidong patrolled and killed Zhao Gao and returned, changing his image of mediocrity and incompetence, and reprimanding and intimidating the ministers who came to meet him outside Xianyang City, and it had spread all over the government and the opposition early in the morning.
The more than 40 heads of Zhao Gao and others hanging high in the downtown of the vegetable market made Xianyang City, whether it was a peddler or a dignitary, it was a sudden shock, no matter when blood and killing were always the most direct means to make people sober.
The countless surging undercurrents in Xianyang City before were completely reduced to the freezing point and turned into a pool of stagnant water when Zhang Han led thousands of wolf-like elite soldiers to hunt down and re-hang dozens of bloody heads of the so-called Zhao Gao's henchmen and clansmen in the vegetable market.
Among the dozens of newly hung heads is Yan Le, who Hu Hai specially instructed Zhang Han before! It can't be said to be a report and a report, the original history should be that this benevolent brother and Zhao Cheng forced Hu Hai to death, and now they are already dead.
The turbulent undercurrent in Xianyang City was suddenly suffocated by Hu Hai's strong return and drastic methods, but countless whirlpools were forming under the calm water surface, and more and larger undercurrents were stirring, waiting for the moment to erupt out, and there would be bigger waves.
………………
There are dozens of tall palaces scattered among the countless mountains and forests in the north of Xianyang City, and at this time, in a tall Taoist temple, the spacious hall is brightly lit.
At the top of the hall were two old men with white beards sitting cross-legged on the soft collapse, and there were about a dozen people sitting on both sides of the hall, most of whom were over half a hundred years old.
The old man sitting on the left side of the hall was dressed in a white robe and wore a high mountain crown, with a red garlic nose on his chubby round face, and his small eyes were always squinting, and he looked very kind and happy. Only occasionally opening and closing, a few rays of fine light inadvertently appeared, showing that this old man was not an easy person.
The old man on the right of the garlic head and red nose old man was wearing a brown robe that was washed and a little whitish, his gray hair was tied into a small bun with a long wooden hairpin, his face was ruddy, a pair of wise eyes seemed to see through the vicissitudes of the world, three strands of snow-white long beard were combed neatly and neatly hung down on his chest, and the same snow-white eyebrows made the whole person look fairy-like and bone-like, like an immortal.
The dozen or so old men who were over half a hundred years old sitting on both sides of the two were also wearing robes and crowns, with a graceful demeanor and a coercive attitude, and they were obviously not ordinary people.
"Zouzi, can we do it?" The garlic-headed red-nosed old man smiled and said to the old man of the fairy wind bones.
The many old men who were originally sitting on both sides of the hall were whispering something to the people around them, and at this time, when they heard the words of the old man with a garlic head and a red nose, they all stopped communicating and listened to Zou Zi's answer, with a solemn expression, and a look of anticipation in their eyes.
The old man, who was called Zou Zi, stroked his three long beards, glanced at the people around him who were listening, and said in a deep voice: "You can't do anything. After saying that, he closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Hearing Zou Zi's words, the faces of the people in the hall suddenly changed, and they began to talk one after another, and the originally quiet hall suddenly became noisy.
The garlic-headed red-nosed old man was obviously shocked when he heard Zou Zi's words, his originally smiling expression suddenly froze, and his small eyes that looked at Zou Zi burst out with a terrifying essence.
As if feeling the eyes of the old man with a red nose with garlic, Zou Zi opened his eyes but did not speak, but shook his head at the old man with a solemn and affirmative expression, and then closed his eyes again, not caring about the discussion of the rest of the people in the hall.
The old man with a garlic head and a red nose knew the person of Zou Zi on the other side very well, and at this time he received a positive answer again, and suddenly like a deflated ball, his originally smiling face was gloomy, and he sighed dejectedly.
The other dozen or so old men in the hall obviously respected the red-nosed old man and the old man named Zou Zi, and had been paying attention to the two.
Many people saw the silent communication between Zou Zi and the red-nosed old man, and at this time they heard a sigh from the red-nosed old man, and the people who had been talking for a long time also stopped arguing at this time, and a green-robed old man sitting at the head of the red-nosed old man stood up and bowed down and said: "Dare to ask Zou Zi, why did he say that it was okay a month ago, but why did he change his words now?" I hope Zou Zi will solve our confusion. ”
Saying that, he bowed deeply to the old man named Zou Zi, and the rest of the old men in the hall also got up and saluted: "I hope Zou Zi will solve our doubts!" ”
The old man named Zou Zi opened his eyes helplessly, and first glanced at the red-nosed old man sitting next to him. The red-nosed old man also looked at Zou Zi at this time, he knew Zou Zi's difficulties, so he couldn't open his mouth to ask for clarification, but from his expression, Zou Zi knew that this old guy must also want to know the reason.
Zou Zi glared at the red-nosed old man, and said helplessly: "Everyone, please take a seat." It's not that Hong can't say it clearly, but it will bring disaster to my Yin and Yang family, so Hong couldn't say it clearly. ”
Speaking of this, Zou Zi paused and said: "But Hong is at the invitation of all of you, but he can't take care of it much now." But I hope you will think twice about whether to act or not. "The implication is that now that you all want to know the reason, then my brother will bear this scourge and tell you.
"Before you all invited Hong, Hong and the others have also been secretly observing the heavens. Qin since the first emperor Xue II succeeded to the throne, and the Ziwei Emperor Star was uncertain and dark.
However, a month ago, the Ziwei Emperor Star suddenly disappeared, and it was only after a while that the light reappeared, although it was not as dark as before, but the light was not bright.
Ten days ago, everyone invited Hongdai to observe the heavens and see the fortunes of Qin, and Hongdai saw that there was something to do, so he gladly agreed. In the past ten days, since the people of Surabaya and other counties have risen up against Qin, the macro audience guest star has been shining and the Ziwei Emperor Star has returned to obscurity, and I am fortunate to be lucky.
However, yesterday, when the macro and others looked at the sky, the Ziwei Emperor Star suddenly shone brightly, like the moon, and although the rest of the guest stars were still extremely bright, they were already covered by the Ziwei Emperor Star......"
At this time, a loud "click" was suddenly heard, and a bright bolt as thick as a child's arm was hitting the roof of the main hall, interrupting Zou Zi's words.
The tile flew and the wall cracked, the masonry splashed, and when the lightning disappeared, a bowl-sized hole appeared on the top of the main hall, and through this bowl-sized hole, Zou Zi looked at the starry sky outside the hall fixedly, his eyes were frightened and his face was pale.
Everyone in the hall was stunned by this sudden thunderbolt, and they trembled one by one, looking frightened, and the whole hall was dead for a while.
Zou Zi stared at the starry sky outside the hall for a while, and bowed to everyone in the hall and said: "Today, Hong leaks the heavens in vain, and there are already signs of disaster, and he will be punished by heaven." But Honggang looks at the sky, the Ziwei Emperor Star is bright, and now the stars will be bright, although the guest star can compete for a while, it will eventually be extinguished.
My Yin-Yang School lives in seclusion from now on, and no longer asks about the world, I hope you will have mercy on me. Zou Zi's face was pale, as if he had aged dozens of years in a moment, and after saying this, he bowed deeply to everyone and turned around.
"Providence cannot be violated!" Zou Zi shouted loudly as he walked, and drifted away.
Everyone in the hall, including the red-nosed old man, heard Zou Zi's last words, and after Zou Zi's figure disappeared into the night, his face turned pale and looked at the starry sky hanging high in the full moon through the big hole in the bowl.
I saw a big star shining in the night sky like the sun, shining with a bowl-sized star next to it. At this moment, the light seemed to overshadow the full moon that sprinkled endless light in the sky.
(To be honest, Jiuzhou didn't expect the book to be signed so quickly by a certain point, because I felt that my writing was not very good.) I didn't expect to be in the top ten of the new book, although it was only history. So today, I took advantage of the weekend to sort out the manuscript, Jiuzhou is more and more dissatisfied, and finally deleted the more than 50,000 words of manuscript under the hard work of more than a month under the shaking of his hand and heart, and rearranged the outline and information. So I really can only change it today.
I just read the book review, although the book review area of Jiuzhou has been very quiet and even dead, but Jiuzhou still often goes to read book reviews, hoping to get everyone's opinions, whether good or bad, because every opinion is equally important to Jiuzhou, a newcomer.
The two messages of the gods and demons made Jiuzhou very grateful, the first one pointed out the shortcomings of Jiuzhou, Jiuzhou has already replied, I don't know that the gods have seen Mu You. Today's book review is to say that the second of Jiuzhou has entered the top ten in history, should it be added, to be honest, it is not expected that Jiuzhou can enter the top ten, but today I deleted all the manuscripts and can really only code out one chapter, but Jiuzhou will definitely make up for the addition, not for the top ten in history, but only for the gods to greatly urge the update and book review. Bow in thanks.
At the same time, this week is about to pass, can you wish the second a new week? Cheeky collection click to recommend! )
