But soon the letter ship came to shore, and there was only one living man on board, saying that everyone was blown into the sea in a storm, and there was not a single bead on board, but the ship guard held a bag, and did not let go, saying that he must meet the king of letters. vertex

When King Shin saw the ship's guard, no one knew what they had said, except that the families of all the people on the ship had received a stipend for the shipwreck.

The ship's guard has since disappeared.

At that time, Ding Yi was only seven years old, and he was practicing calligraphy at his father's desk, and he didn't hear what the shipwright and his father said in the first half, but his father called him over later.

King Shin said to the ship's guard, "This is my son, who has a very clever head and is very hard at studying, and you will have a task to protect him in the future." By the way, what's your name? ”

The ship's guard replied, "Qiqi." ”

"Seventy-seven? Since you are already the commander of the secret guard of my Xinwang Mansion, you will be called Dark Seven in the future. After speaking, King Xin opened the bag and began to tease Ding Yi, "How about it, do you like this night pearl?" You write a couplet for your father, and your father will give it to you, okay? ”

"Thank you, Father." Ding Yi can still remember the warm touch and warm white light when he picked up this night pearl for the first time.

At this time, Ding Yi subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the beam of the court hall, where there was a shadow, and he moved slightly.

"Prince, are you still kneeling here, are you going to reason with me and your regent grandfather?" The emperor asked the crown prince that he was so terrible that he didn't want his son to die.

The prince knelt firmly on the ground: "Father, you are too worried, the child is just thinking about whether it is okay"

"No, you can't." Ding Yi stood up, and the emperor quickly stood up and followed.

Ding Yi looked at the prince and smiled and said, "I know what you're thinking, since the overseers can't do it, it may be that my father and the regent are worried about my safety, since this is the case, can you disguise yourself as his sick strategist, travel in a low-key manner, and then let the secret guards secretly plan to protect, you just want to see and see." Right. ”

The prince was stunned: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from the regent grandfather." ”

"Prince!" Ding Yi sighed and paused, "You are the crown prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, the future emperor, what you have to do is different from those generals, I know that you are young and yearn for the battlefield of Jin Ge Iron Horse, but the emperor, you have to strategize, your responsibilities are above the court, you have to support the generals you go out, do a good job in logistics supply, personnel deployment, understand?" ”

The prince was very lonely: "Grandpa Regent, I understand, I just want to go out and see the rivers and mountains of the Great Jin Dynasty while I don't have to be shackled in this palace." I still have a lifetime to learn about the things in the palace, but the things outside the palace may only be this time. ”

For a while, Ding Yi looked at the prince and found that this logic was impeccable, and he just felt that it would be good to go out and experience it.

"Come down." Ding Yi sighed.

A man in black jumped down from the beam of the main hall, it was absolutely black, except for his eyes, there was no place exposed on his body.

"Regent."

"Dark Seven, you can take a trip and protect the prince."

"No."

That night, the emperor uncharacteristically did not ask the concubine to sleep.

Instead, he sat on the dragon couch and kept trembling: Why is there still Uncle Wang's secret guard on top of my court hall!

At the same time, Dark Seven escorted the prince into the camp disguised as a counselor who was not sick.

When seeing off outside the palace gate the next morning, Ding Yi personally brought a glass of wine to Qi Wuxian, took his hand after drinking, and said in a low voice, "I know that you are young and ambitious, and Qi Lao is a person of infinite wisdom, as his son, I believe that you will be better than him." But there are two things you should remember, first, do what you can, neither you nor the prince can have an accident; Second, you have to learn to use the name of a great general. After speaking, Ding Yi raised his eyebrows meaningfully.

The 20,000 Yulin is the most elite troops of the Great Jin Dynasty, all of them are cavalry, and they are marching all the way north.

Ding Yi sat in the palace, looking forward to the stars and the moon every day.

Qi Wuzhi used soldiers like gods, the main force did not confront the Yi people, hung the "Jin" character handsome flag on the front, and only ten people stood under the banner on foot, so that the Yi people 500,000 people confronted each other for two hours and did not dare to move forward rashly.

The rest of the large forces of the Great Jin Dynasty all borrowed the dense forest to bypass, stormed the two wings, and in the first battle, they completely annihilated 50,000 people in the vanguard of the Yiren.

After that, all the troops of Yulin dismounted and walked into the dense forest.

There are many soldiers in the Yulin Army, whose ancestors followed King Xin to fight the world, and their hometowns are all in the north, with a familiar geographical environment, coupled with the strong support of the locals, it is also good to eat and drink and live well in the dense forest.

The Yi people had to face swamp gas, snakes, insects, rats, ants, and beasts of the forest that they had never encountered before, and they suffered heavy losses on the march alone.

had to withdraw from the woodland and burn the forest, but the battle line was lengthened and its numerical superiority was lost.

Qi Wuzhi took advantage of the mobility of the troops to enter and exit the mountain roads and annihilate the scattered people who surrounded the mountains one by one.

After more than two months of fighting, the weather gradually warmed, but the number of Yi people changed from the initial 500,000 to 300,000.

In the end, 100,000 people surrounded the mountain and 200,000 people moved, and finally caught the main force of the elderly, and surrounded and annihilated them in one fell swoop.

Qi Wuzhi and the prince had to flee into the mountains with more than ten horses.

The news only reached the capital of the Great Jin Kingdom five days later.

Ding Yi didn't go to court that day, sitting in the mansion, constantly touching the night pearl brought by his regent dynasty.

Since becoming the regent, this has become a habit, and when he encounters a major matter, Ding Yi will touch this night pearl to find ideas.

"Come on, bring a word to the General's Mansion, save people in the north, the prince and the elderly are not sick, and then destroy the people with ease, and reward one million silver."

When the servant who went to carry the letter came back, the faces on both sides were swollen and like steamed buns, and Ding Yi was so angry that he saw it.

When the general was asked how to reply, the servant was so beaten that he couldn't speak, so he had to take a pen and write, "Don't you dare to come to the door yourself?" Too little money, to pass the meal? Add this and go. With that, the servant pointed to his ashen belt.

Ding Yi smiled bitterly, broke off the night pearl with all his might, put it in the brocade box, glanced at it, closed the box, and wiped it reluctantly, "Send it." ”

Seven days later, early in the morning, the officials who cleaned the court saw a red light flashing and threw down the two hemp bags at the door of the main hall, thinking that they were dazzled, they rubbed their eyes, the red light was gone, but the two bags were still there, and they began to writhe.

Hurry up and open it to see that the prince and the elderly are in the sack.

When the prince saw that he was an official in the palace, he was first shocked, and then he laughed stupidly.

After nearly ten days, the military report came from the north, and hundreds of thousands of people were gone, but there was an inexplicable mountain in the north overnight, and there were no trees on the mountain, and it was full of stones and dust.

Qi Wuzhi also brought back a sentence from Jin Qing to Ding Yi: "It's too late, Dark Seven didn't keep it, the beads won't be returned, and the money won't be returned." ”
