Chapter 201: Long-term planning
Zhuang Wei gritted his teeth, could only hurriedly raise his hand and grab it, grabbing an extremely unlucky "brother" in the past and blocking it to Ming Jin's side.
As a result, the afterimage of Ming Jin in front of him flashed repeatedly, almost avoiding this person like a phantom, and the long sword made a sword sound.
Terrifying!
Zhuang Wei has seen with her own eyes how she defeated Lin Shu, in terms of sword lethality, she is comparable to crossing the river with a reed!
He doesn't want to die! I don't want to die like this.
Zhuang Weifei also seemed to escape, and slipped out a flute from his sleeve, and played the flute before Ming Jin came.
Airplanes!!
Gu worms flew out of his sleeves....
Xuanyin flows into the empty valley, and the wind is deterrent and evil.
It broke through the air, like a sword that was as frosty as snow, broke the domineering evil spirit in the bell, and flattened!
Then both sides stop and finally calm down.
Only one round, no love fight, as if to follow some kind of rule, but in addition ....
The two men were gone.
Peeling and Xu Qiubai, these two people just took advantage of the crowd to be shocked by the sound of the bell, threw a smoke bomb and ran away.
When Ming Jin came back to his senses, he turned his head to look, only to see a black shadow dissipating in the white smoke.
She couldn't help but clench her sword.
Let the tiger return to the mountain, hidden danger!
It was she who was careless.
ββββββ
The enemy's traces have been hidden, and he knows that with the martial arts of the other party, as well as the power of the person behind him hidden in the imperial court, it is easy for them to break through the blockade of the capital, and she is not a member of the imperial court, so she cannot interfere.
Ming Jin's eyebrows were deep, looking into the distance for a long time without speaking, and this scene, in the eyes of many people, also seems to be in the painting.
But seeing the forbidden army and the army of the patrol battalion running around the city to search, Ming Jin withdrew his gaze, put away his sword, and looked back at Xie Zhai deeply.
It seems that he saw Mingrong Mingyue in the attic, and also saw Mingdai in the courtyard below who was being asked by Xu and others about her well.
"Second Miss Xie, today's matter..."Su Shenzhi came to inquire with a concerned look, and was about to tell Xie Mingdai about the remnants of the cult, but Ming Jin cut off his words and said: "In order to draw out the two traitors buried in the court of Zhaoguo, in order to maintain the stability of the court, my sister defended the law and would rather sacrifice her reputation, I didn't agree, but I was startled, and there was no conclusive evidence, so I could only agree to give it a try under the arrangement of the court. β
"However, this secret is only known to the monarch and the relevant ministers, it is a decision made by the imperial court, and it is a long-term plan to destroy the cult, and Su Gongzi doesn't know?"
She cut off the Xie family's body in one breath, and also earned a good reputation and credit for Ming Dai, no one who mentions her embarrassment today in the future will dare to say anything, otherwise it will be doubtful of the court's decision-making, and it will also be disobedient to the country's loyalty.
But nothing can be left to Xie Ming, just what he says.
Ming Dai was surprised when she was so high-spirited, but she was also worried that Ming Jin would get into trouble, but Mingyue, who had already come down, pressed her shoulder, Ming Dai looked at the other party, and the other party gave her a look.
In this matter, the court will acquiesce.
Why?
For the sake of face.
The two young courtiers who were greatly praised and cultivated by the imperial court were actually protΓ©gΓ©s of the cult, and they were slapped in the face when they mixed in, let alone two at once!
If this spreads, the face of the king and the court will be gone.
Therefore, mentioning the arrangement of the imperial court will give people the impression that the imperial court has already broken through the disguise of the two and is only waiting to catch the turtle in the urn (although they have not been caught).
Anyway, she was sure that the court would not deny it, not to mention that she didn't want much, but to maintain Mingdai's reputation and not affect her future future.
The court won't care, after all, Ming Dai is not as sensitive as her.
Xie Mingrong saw through it, and Su Shenzhi naturally saw through it, and secretly said that if this woman is a man, I am afraid that there is nothing wrong with him Su Shenzhi.
"I see, no wonder today is so well prepared, the forbidden army came so quickly, I'm afraid that Lord Pear has also been prepared."
"This is the preparation of the imperial court, I don't know, does Lord Su have anything else to ask?"
"No, don't delay Miss Xie and her relatives to get together."
Su Shenzhi finally had to be cautious, with a gentlemanly and elegant attitude.
But with Xu Qiubai Zhuyu in front, this person's hypocrisy is disgusting.
Especially Ming Dai and others, he doesn't like anything else.
The little white face, it is really a little white face, is our Xie family Shaozong naturally recruiting hypocritical little white face?
Ming Jin ignored Su Shenzhi, but he didn't say anything to the Xie family, but went to find Li Baiyi first.
Mingyue's face collapsed suddenly.
"The little white face surnamed Xie has been revealed, and she left her sister and sister to find someone else?"
It's rare that Mingrong didn't discipline her.
ββββββ
In the pavilion, Li Baiyi had already collected the flute and watched Ming Jin jump in.
"Jean-senpai is gone?"
"Well, I said that she is gone now, and you will have to go to our building to thank her in person another day, and I can just have a meal with you."
Pampering can be seen.
Ming Jin was slightly surprised, and then smiled, "Well, I will definitely go next time." β
"Next time? You're going to chase the people of Guangling Valley? β
Pear Baiyi didn't know how to let the tiger return to the mountain, but Guangling Valley has always been secretive, and the valley master has reached the realm of goodness like water.
That's not something they can deal with.
"No, I'm not that stupid, but I still don't understand, the two of them ambushed me and Mingdai respectively, what the hell is the plan, threatening me with Mingdai, threatening my father with me? What conspiracy is involved, it is unknown, and it is unsettling. β
As if asking herself, Li Baiyi thought for a moment and said, "Maybe their purpose is very simple and not so complicated." β
Ming Jin was stunned for a moment, thoughtful: "Lust? β
She asked seriously, but Li Baiyi herself was embarrassed, "No, I didn't mean that, I meant... They may simply want you to suffer. β
You, naturally, it is her Xie Ming and Xie Yuan.
Ming Jin seemed to be touched, and he calmed down and pondered, but his eyes were far away to Xie Zhai.
"You summoned me before, saying that Zhuang Wei might be a master of Gu, so I asked the master to pass the flute music to me, but she also said that people who play Gu have always had an extreme heart, because the way of raising Gu is extreme, he broke his plan for you this time, and almost died, I am afraid that he hates it very much, so you must be very careful, but you can't only be careful of your sister, but also your own safety."
Ming solemnly bowed her head, but there are only those who have been thieves for thousands of years, and there are no thieves for thousands of years, if Guangling Valley is not solved, these younger brothers and sisters of hers will always be in danger.
But the valley lord is as good as water, and it is indeed beyond her ability to resist now.
Unless, wait until she reaches that state.
"If you want to arrive early, you can come to our white-clothed sword and snow building more often, and stay in the library pavilion more. The Master has been in retreat for four years, but the Master can always teach you. β
Li Baiyi's words can cause turbulence in the ears of any martial arts person, when did the gate of the Baiyi Sword Snow Building be so easy to enter?
"I seem to remember that the rule of your building is not to involve court politics and the royal family, and only approach the king alone."
Ming Jin felt a little strange, and thought about Li Baiyi, and didn't want the other party to upset the king because of himself.
"You are not from the court, you are from the martial arts."
Li Baiyi said so, and added, "It's the master who said so." β
was tied up by too many people The Xie family and Xie Yuan, the good and the bad all greeted her, even if she was adrift for four years, she still couldn't separate herself, as if she had been trapped in that size of the world all her life.
But now someone distinguishes her.
Martial arts people.
How nice.
"Well, I'll definitely go in the future, but now, I need to meet four people."
"Okay, but I need to go back to the palace."
Both of them had someone they wanted to meet, and they were about to separate, but they all heard a galloping horse galloping in the bustling streets of the capital, which was not a cavalry to capture the people in the cult, but an urgent report from the border pass.
Ming Jin looked at the flag raised by the person on the horse, and his face was gloomy.
There is another enemy outside the frontier.
ββββββ
There is a great wilderness outside the Cypriot Union.
Dahuangguo had no intention of abiding by the agreement he had made before, and he didn't care about the life and death of the amnesty, so he had planned to unite with the outside of the Saiwai, but the envoys of Minglu Bu came to Zhaoguo to negotiate peace, but he privately contacted the outside of the Saiwai....
Zhao Guo was furious, but the combined forces of the two sides were not trivial, mainly scattered outside the Cypriot Army, perennial wandering outside the north and south foothills of Zhao State, if the guerrilla war harassment, unintentionally distracted Zhao troops, can be a fatal hidden danger.
The court of Zhaoguo was in a hurry, and when the pear white clothes arrived at the palace, the king and the courtiers held a court meeting, and heard that dinner was settled in the palace.
At this time, Ming Jin also saw the four of Ming Rong under the command of the Xie family, but not in the hunting garden in the mansion.
Outside the conservatory, Xie Zhilin is making soy sauce, and he is still carrying the hand stove and robe of his three sisters, but his eyebrows are no longer as impatient and cold as the young man he was back then, and he can wait patiently.
Inside the house, Xie Mingyue cried several times when she wanted to follow her sister and sister's long-term reunion (of course, Ming Jin missed her deeply. But Mingrong and Mingdai didn't give her a chance, and mentioned the frontier war as soon as they saw each other.
"That was originally a matter of the court and the military department, but the next step may be to get married, not necessarily to stop at the daughter of the clan, but to pick the right one." As a married person, Mingrong is naturally not worried, but she looks at her younger sisters.
The so-called appropriateness is that it is not distressed to sacrifice, and it does not affect the interests of the royal family and the court, but it can affect the war to a certain extent.
Mingyue: "I have a humble status. β
Mingdai: "Mingjin again?" Those old ministers in the cabinet did this, and threatened the uncle with her three times and twice..."
Mingrong: "No, it could be you this time. β
Mingdai: "??? β
Two days later, someone in the court really proposed Xie Mingdai, not Su Shenzhi, but Su Shenzhi's henchman.
But it was quickly refuted, because Xie Mingdai had already negotiated with the Zhuang family, and her marriage contract with Zhuang Wei was still there, and it was half a ceremony, saying that the real Zhuang Wei was unlucky, and he was calculated to replace his identity for the cult people, but the Zhuang family's parents were pitiful and lost their beloved son, and Xie Mingdai was willing to keep half of her daughter-in-law's filial piety....
When this kind of reason comes out, it is difficult for the imperial court to mention it, after all, even if they don't mind, the outside side will be annoyed by their sincerity.
"For such a reason, Gai is not shirking, right?"
"It's not that the dealer couple learned that their son was a cult calculator... Although he was shocked and painful, he did discuss it with the Xie family. β
Among them, Ming Jin made a lot of effort, and the dealer was grieving, in order to guard the lintel, let the dealer be implicated in the cult, and was strictly investigated by the imperial court, and could only hug the thigh of the Xie family, so the dealer couple accepted the grief and immediately made a decision, after all, they have more than one son, but also several children.
In the long run, they must agree to a clear offer.
Only then did Ming Dai get out, but this was expected by Ming Rong Ming, and they guessed the real purpose of the imperial court....
"If you want to fight on the frontier, you must collect military power, including the Ukrainian army, if you don't hand over power, you will abandon the safety of the country."
This is something that has no choice, so how will Xie Yuan choose?
Kill those who propose? Or is it a new majesty to force others to submit? Or will you really go to the frontier to fight?
"Uncle, father, his edict should have arrived in the court."
It's just that Ming Rong Ming has different opinions on how he chooses, and Ming Rong's attitude is that Xie Yuan will further propose to take all the military power and be the leader of this battle.
To break through the attack, this is the domineering that the Xie family should have.
However, Ming Jin felt that Xie Yuan would hand over the power of the Wujia army, but he would appoint a henchman to take charge of it, and he would further ask for the command power.
In fact, the speculation of the two is the same, the difference is only whether they are willing to go to the frontier.
Ming's guess is - no.
She believes that her father is a man with a plan, and he can give up everything for the supreme power and the interests of the family, but the premise is that he can't die.
Going to the frontier in this battle is tantamount to risking his life, and there are traps waiting for him inside and outside.
How could a person as cautious and vicious as he go.
But the two sisters didn't quarrel either, and sooner or later there would be a result anyway.
Sure enough, three days later, Ming Jin got the news - the king personally announced that Xie Yuan had been appointed as the commander of the guards, and asked him to rush to the frontier while he was in Jiaocheng.
On this day, lightning flashed and thundered, and the torrential rain arrived.
Ming Jin, who was standing in the stormy attic, was silent for a long time, and said, "Sister, this is the first time I have lost to you." β
Mingrong looked back at her, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Probably because he is only my uncle, not my father, I can look at him as an equal." β
Ming Jin smiled bitterly, leaned against the pillar, and looked at the rainstorm outside, "Does my sister think I am prejudiced against him?" β
"No, you're tolerant enough, it's just that this world is too sinister.... Where are you going next? White-clothed Jianxue Building, I want you to go, it's best to come out in three or five years. β
After a pause, he said calmly: "Either the butterfly loves the flower." β
I know that she is not the only one in the Xie family who is afraid of the pinnacle of power.
The Xie family is already on the cusp.
She calculates for the Xie family's sisters and siblings, and there are also sisters who are willing to calculate for her.
"I'm ready to do what I can, and I'm tired of helping my sister look at those little ... Don't run around, but if there is a catastrophe, as long as I keep the glorious door that my ancestors laid for us, I still have the ability to turn the tide, and I must defend it. β
Seeing the perseverance, Ming Jinmei turned around and jumped down.
In the pouring rain, Mingrong saw her on her horse, drenched in the rain, smiled at her, and then resolutely led her men out of the city.
Mingrong didn't know what she was going to do, but she thought it must be to kill the hidden danger.
Let the woes of the coming day be less united, less powerful.
Mingrong pondered for a long time, looking down at the token he held in the palm of his sleeve.
This token was given to him by Bi Er not long ago.
That day, she knew that her uncle had a plan.
It's just that she doesn't know where the details and direction are, but if she thinks about it, it's either related to the Xie family or Ming Jin.
Choosing one or the other?
