Chapter 428: Kneel!
Ma Zhifu was stripped naked,
Hung on the city wall.
Due to the cold weather,
People who are good at cooking are much more delicate, so He Chunlai lit a big brazier for Ma Zhifu below to warm him;
In addition, his clothes were stripped naked, but he still put straw on the prefect of Ma very intimately.
Anyway,
After all, Hou Ye didn't say that he was going to die for him,
It's really dead,
On the contrary, people like him can't do things.
But because a large brazier was raised here, after nightfall, it was very conspicuous, so it attracted many homeless people from outside the city, who gathered here and silently admired the ...... of the prefect of Yupan City high above at this time
A cold stance.
But no one dared to sing and dance, no one dared to cheer, and even no one dared to point fingers.
Everyone's expressions were very numb.
At the other end of the city wall, the figure of Marquis Zheng appeared, and beside him, stood Gou Moli.
Behind them, stood Juggernaut and Chen Daxia.
Gou Moli's eyes flickered with a spark of banter, he liked to see this scene and enjoyed it.
Chen Daxia was a little more compassionate, what he looked at was the dense crowd of homeless people under the city.
And the Juggernaut, who is already somewhat immune to refugees,
Sigh,
It is the land of Sanjin today.
Once, when Gou Moli was still locked up in the dungeon of the Snow Customs, the Sword Master would ask the blind man to bring him up and chat with him from time to time.
Juggernaut at that time,
Just experienced the battle in front of the snow customs,
Highlight over,
also exalted,
hasn't had time to settle yet;
Therefore, the Sword Saint asked Gou Moli: Do you have to toss this experience?
Gou Moli's answer was: You asked this because I lost.
A rebellion of savages entering the customs,
Most of the land was stirred,
People have been displaced, and countless people have been killed and injured;
The savages themselves, hundreds of thousands of young and strong, basically few returned to the snowfield, most of them were annihilated, and the rest were also exhausted to death on the construction site as laborers.
but
What if you win?
The wild people will leave the snow field and embrace the warmth of Jindi again.
Juggernaut asked again: For now, is it worth it?
Gou Moli replied: If you don't do it, you are a dog, and right now, you are also a dog, anyway, you are a dog, why not toss it?
Because Gou Moli will not only slap the horse, but also tell some truths, so the Sword Master will only chat with him when he is recuperating from his injuries, and Gou Moli at that time can also get an extremely precious opportunity to see the sun;
The last question of the day was the Swordmaster: Does it have to be like this?
In fact, maybe the Sword Master himself didn't know what he was asking, so it had to be.
But Gou Moli answered a lot,
He said
Look at His Majesty Yan Guo, what kind of person is he?
Thousands of years ago, it was the foundation of a generation of Ming monarchs.
He doesn't know how to earn a good name.
He didn't know that he had to compromise his good fortune after being reckless?
He didn't know that the horse would bleed after stepping on the gatekeeper?
He didn't know that the army was supported by millions of people, and he didn't know that the people in his country were struggling to make a living?
Plainly
No matter how hard the people are, it is nothing more than starving some people and starving to death, as long as this country is still there, as long as this court is still there, the disaster year will be passed.
The most feared,
In fact, after being broken by a foreign enemy, that human life is really worthless.
If you don't have food to eat, you can eat leaves, you can gnaw bark, you can eat grass, it's a big deal, get two meals of Guanyin soil, and you'll be half-full!
But when the knife is cut, can you change the position of your head and continue to breathe?
He Yan Guo, don't take advantage of him, don't take advantage of this good situation, try his best to fight out, subdue the Quartet, hehe;
The people may scold him, and the history books may defile him,
But for thousands of generations,
Breaking the country and destroying the country, that is the real misery full of bones!
It's like,
You Jinren!
……
Therefore, when looking at the refugees under Yupan City, the Sword Saint did not have much pity in his heart;
First, because there are too many people who ask him about the people of Jindi, threaten him, accuse him, and he is annoyed;
The second reason is that he can eat potato paste when he sees the displaced people inside and outside Fengxincheng, and he lives in an ordinary house, and he can see hope for the future from the looks of his family.
all
It's going to get better.
Sometimes, the Sword Master himself also found out, and he seemed to be willing to be deceived by Zheng Fan;
Because starting from Shengle City, to Snow Customs, and then to Litian City,
The Juggernaut comprehended a truth,
Learning the sword can't save the Jin people.
Instead of letting his dragon abyss continue to be high, rather than letting his white clothes be spotless;
But that's just floating yourself, for the country and the people, what's the benefit?
The one in front of you,
he
and his subordinates whose abilities were so strong that the Juggernaut had to marvel,
It can really make the people live a life of decline.
sword
Be grounded;
The earth here is the real earth qi;
Combined with the result of his almost violent death last time he opened the second product,
maybe
He could use the earth qi to draw the power of the second-grade realm as a support, so that his body could bear less pressure and consumption.
And the earth's atmosphere,
Where is it?
The sword saint's gaze couldn't help but fall on the back of the man in front of him again.
Half a life, walking the rivers and lakes;
Fighting, fighting,
Jianghu heroes, cut through;
The king of a country, killed;
But under what I have seen and heard, the most down-to-earth person is the one in front of me.
Marquis Zheng didn't know,
I'm standing here now,
Didn't say anything,
has become the object of the Sword Master's "enlightenment",
Fortunately, I don't know,
Otherwise, it would really be a depressing blow to Marquis Zheng, who was still worried about the delay in opening the realm.
And Marquis Zheng,
In fact, in my mind now, I don't think about anything at all.
He just came up to breathe and blow the wind, and that's really all.
Chen Daxia couldn't help but want to speak at this time:
"Why is this prefect so stupid?"
People who can be said to be "stupid" by Chen Daxia, that's true......
Gou Moli smiled:
"Do you think each of the Yan people is extremely smart? Anytime, when there are more people in a place, the majority of them are often fools.
Yan Guo is also a fool, just like the one, when he doesn't know how to send a woman so obviously, is it too close?
Don't you know that if he does this, in fact, the biggest damage to his official reputation is himself?
He knew, but he did it anyway, because he felt that in this way, he could get closer and directly become a lackey under our Hou Ye.
But he was stupid, he misjudged one thing. ”
As he spoke, Gou Moli paused.
Chen Daxia immediately asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Gou Moli nodded with satisfaction and said:
"He can be shameless, but our Hou Ye wants to be shameless.
He didn't want to think about it,
If he went to Li Liangting and sent a woman like this to King Jingnan with great fanfare, what kind of fate would it be? ”
"Hmm." Chen Daxia thoughtfully, "I seem to understand a little." ”
Gou Moli lowered his head again, and looked at the prefect who was hanging there,
Snorted coldly,
Disdainful:
"Really, don't look at the fact that Da Yan is now unparalleled in iron cavalry, destroying the country and conquering, and invincible, but it is by no means that the Yan people are all smart, but the top ones, who lead the way well, including our Hou Ye."
Zheng Fan glanced at Gou Moli, and Gou Moli immediately shut up.
"Go back and rest."
……
Ma Zhifu was untied at dawn, because he had a bit of kung fu foundation, so he was not frozen to death, but he was also frozen enough;
The most important thing is that this face can be said to have been stepped into the quagmire.
Moreover, after this incident, his position as the prefect of Yupan City should not be able to sit for long, he is not ashamed, and the court will be ashamed.
The team of the Marquis of Pingxi also left Yupan City at dawn and crossed the Wangjiang River.
Thousands of hopes,
The Marquis of Pingxi is finally coming to Yingdu, and for the group of magnates in Yingdu who have been panicking for a long time, they are simply going to be excited.
Ultimately
Marquis Zheng still slowly lived like the king of Jingnan,
Where is he
Where you can rest assured.
I didn't think it before, because I used to only care about climbing up, but after climbing up the high platform, I looked around and under my body, and found that there was a good scenery everywhere.
It's just that there are thousands of troops
The team of the Marquis of Pingxi, after crossing the Wangjiang River, did not come straight to Yingdu, but turned to the north.
……
"What, Pingxihou went to Stone Mountain?"
In less than half a day, many powerful people in Yingdu issued similar surprises after learning the news.
Obviously, there is still a prince in Yingdu who has not woken up,
Obviously, Yingdu's Taishou is still in bed,
Ming Ying is here, everyone is panicking,
Since the Marquis of Pingxi has already passed the Wangjiang River, why hasn't he come over to preside over the overall situation?
Hills
This place is naturally no stranger to Yingdu people.
In fact, from a geographical point of view, the land of Sanjin is more like a large basin, with the Tianduan Mountains in the north, the Horseshoe Mountains in the west, and the Mengshan Qishan Mountains in the south.
In its country, there are not many real mountains.
Stone Mountain, more than 100 miles away from Yingdu, that mountain, is not high, but it is the sleeping place of the heads of the Situ family in the past dynasties.
At the earliest, when the Situ family was still a vassal under the Yu royal family, their old territory was in the area of Shishan, and then, with the Situ family growing stronger, the base camp was also moved from Shishan to Yingdu, and then, with the pattern of the three families being divided, finally, Situ Lei was called the emperor;
No matter how the Situ family develops, grows, and changes, Shishan is still where the "ancestral tomb" of the Situ family is located, and Situ Lei's "imperial tomb" is also in Shishan.
so
The team of the Marquis of Pingxi went to the stone mountain,
Its purpose,
And what is it?
For the most part,
Someone finally reacted first.
The carriage of Prince Cheng's mansion left the palace, and after a group of palace guards and a group of flags and cards were properly matched, they left the gate of Yingdu City and went straight to Shishan.
Although he deliberately maintained a sense of composure, the sense of hurry really couldn't be hidden.
Time
The magnates of Yingdu have basically woken up,
Big cars and small cars, big teams and small teams, one after another out of the south city gate, the team of the palace is in the front, and the teams of the families behind follow closely, the big guy is not said to be mighty, but it is also extremely noisy to rush to the stone mountain.
Here,
There are Yan people, and there are Jin people,
But now, they have a unified appellation...... Frightened people.
They desperately need comfort, desperately in need of protection.
To a certain extent, what Gou Moli said that night was really not all private goods.
The Yan people who used to fight immediately will also fall after becoming officials;
As for the Situ family, who once resisted the snow field in the north and the Chu State in the south, that is, the old people of Yingdu, they had actually been castrated a long time ago.
The Yan people's rule over this place has not yet been completely and completely implemented, but they themselves have already pouted their butts early;
If Sun Youdao hadn't been in trouble because of his eldest son, he would really not want to go out of the mountain again, because the Yingdu where Situ Lei was in the past has long been gone;
Although the walls of Yingdu still stand here, the people of Yingdu, the upper echelons of Yingdu, have already revealed a rotten atmosphere that makes Sun Youdao nauseous.
Of course, the old lady was disdainful, but he still took his second son Sun Liang to sit in his own carriage together, under the banner of his own family, and followed the large army.
The big guys are here, and if they don't come, it's a political mistake.
Last time, in a case of fraud in the imperial examination, that Hou Ye set off such a bloody storm in Yingdu, this time, such a big thing happened, God knows how many heads will fall in the end!
Even, there is no need to distinguish who is responsible, who is at fault, who is guilty, and who is innocent, because of the nature of the matter, it has changed from wanting the result to wanting to have an attitude.
If you don't come, you just don't give Pingxi Hou face;
If you don't give Pingxihou face, Pingxihou's knife will fall on your neck if you can't say it, anyway, who is not chopping?
Although everyone went out of the city one after another,
But the team of Prince Cheng's Mansion did not go too fast, at least, there was no sense of immediacy of the little quail frantically pounced on the arms of the old hen.
This also gave the big guy behind the opportunity to catch up, and after catching up, everyone tacitly fell behind Prince Cheng's mansion, and to a certain extent, it was also orderly.
finally
to the boundary of the rocky mountains;
According to the news from the person in front of you,
Pingxihou's team went up to the north side of Shishan, where Situ Lei's mausoleum was located.
In fact, before Situ Lei, when the Situ family was close to the emperor of the soil, the mausoleum of the head of the family had already been trespassed, and it was no different from the emperor's mausoleum.
As soon as Situ Lei became the head of the family, before he became the emperor, he had already started to build his own mausoleum in accordance with the tradition of normal national dynasties.
Therefore, even if Situ Lei died later, there were rebels and savages outside, and the situation was very chaotic, followed by the Eastern Expedition of the Yan people and the king of Jingnan's coming out of the mountain to take command, things one after another, but Situ Lei could be buried safely, because the mausoleum had already been repaired, and it could be used directly.
At the gate of the mausoleum mountain,
There are some old eunuchs in the Dacheng Palace in the past, and there is also a guard guarding the tomb, they used to be Situ Lei's personal guards, and they are not willing to ask for a job from the Yan people, so they simply come here to guard the tomb for the emperor.
It's just that when Pingxihou's men and horses arrived and showed Pingxihou's token, these mausoleum guards did not dare to stop them, and handed over all defenses in an orderly manner;
On the Hou Mansion's side, he also saved face, did not disarm, but sent them to the bottom of the mountain.
As for those who are too overseer, they are gathered together.
Pingxi Hou wants to personally worship Emperor Taizu of Dacheng Kingdom and wants to be quiet.
All the grief and glory of Emperor Taizu of the Dacheng Kingdom were all ordered by Emperor Yan to be retained, after all, to a certain extent, Emperor Yan introduced Situ Lei as a confidant, and he was a confidant in the "emperor" sequence.
Just by virtue of the fact that when the Great Yan Iron Cavalry trampled on the Helian family and pointed directly at the Situ family,
He Situ Lei dared to mobilize the domestic elite to go to the snow field to fight the savages, and completely empty his body to the Yan people, which is worthy of this respect.
Not to mention that before Situ Lei died, he fought hard to repel the imposing rebels and savage coalition forces, kept Yingdu, and laid the foundation for the later entry of the Yan army; This is also an extremely heroic feat.
In front of the altar, Marquis Zheng took the incense seriously;
The Juggernaut was also incensed;
Chen Daxia heard that Situ Lei was a hero, and he also incense it.
Gou Moli hesitated for a while,
At last
Muttering:
"Damn, I still have to worship you."
Walk up and be the last one to incense.
After the incense,
The former savage king was a little sad,
Once an old adversary, now lying on the ground.
Will he laugh at the fact that he has now become an eagle dog at the feet of others?
No
He's dead
But I'm alive.
You dead ball, and you still have a face to laugh at me?
Therefore, Gou Moli stood there, his expression constantly changing.
If he had taken Yingdu in the first place, the Yan people would have lost an orderly and organized logistics transit place, and the coalition army of him and the Chu people would not have fallen into the embarrassing situation of lack of food and manpower.
The war situation will be a different story entirely.
"Master Hou, Prince Cheng and the others have arrived." He Chun came up to give a pass.
"Let them come up."
"Yes, Master Hou."
Marquis Zheng walked to the steps in front of the altar,
Sit down.
Cliff knife, put at your side,
Today, he is wearing the set of armor given by the emperor on the day of the marquis;
He just sat there like this,
Looking ahead, a group of people who kept climbing the stairs.
……
"Heh, even when the first emperor was born, people would not be so thoughtful."
The Queen Mother was supported by Situ Yu and walked up, looked back at the dense crowd behind her, and couldn't help but say indignantly.
This is her husband's resting place;
Here, she is inevitably sentimental and sensitive.
Situ Yu, who had grown up and looked like a young man, didn't say anything about it, but continued to support his mother up the mountain.
On the royal road of the mausoleum on both sides, there are guards of the Hou Mansion who are wearing flying fish suits and carrying embroidered spring knives, which brings a strong sense of oppression to the people who go up the mountain.
These guards are the elite soldiers who followed the battle of Marquis Zheng, and with clothes, it is difficult to deter people.
Most importantly,
All the people who were going up the mountain actually didn't know what the new military merit marquis was, so they naturally felt a little worried in their hearts.
finally
When Situ Yu raised his head, he saw the Marquis of Pingxi sitting there.
It's not that he hasn't seen Zheng Fan, he has seen it a long time ago;
But this time,
He was vaguely in a trance,
It seems that the one sitting there is not Pingxihou, but the former Jingnanhou who kicked over the eldest prince in front of him.
has this feeling, not only Situ Yu, but his mother, this woman who is very sensible in the palace and knows how to advance and retreat, at this time, her body is already trembling slightly.
Situ Yu, who was holding her hand, sensed it.
And the elites of Yingdu, who were arranged up the mountain in order of official position and status, also slowed down almost at the same time at this time.
What is a military meritor?
this
It is the aura of the Great Yan Military Meritorious Marquis!
It is a status earned in the sea of corpses and blood!
Situ Yu let go of his mother's hand,
He is a contemporary prince,
He was the son-in-law of Situ Lei,
Over here
It was his father's tomb,
Some things, some people,
He had to face it.
So
He went to the first,
Go up,
Go up,
Go up,
When the distance was closer, he could already clearly see the face of the Marquis of Pingxi sitting there, when he was slightly hesitating whether to greet the Marquis of Pingxi with more official etiquette or with a slightly intimate gesture;
Sitting there the Marquis of Pingxi,
Just raised his eyes slightly,
Glancing at him lightly,
subsequently
Spit out two words,
These two words,
not only made Situ Yu stunned, but also made the queen mother behind him and all the magnates who had worked hard to come from Ziying feel at ease.
"Get on your knees."
