Chapter 136 Conspiracy
Early the next morning, all the elders of the Dongshan Moon God Hall gathered together to hold a meeting.
The first thing they discussed was the matter of yesterday's troubles in the adjudication department.
Fusheng Ye sat quietly at the last seat, silently listening to Elder Yanzhong's accusations against him.
After Yanzhong finished speaking, Gesang Yuzhen looked at Fusheng Ye and said seriously: "Fusheng, do you think that our Twin Peaks are not chaotic enough in the past few days?" The Adjudication Division is a place of law enforcement, and you, as an elder, should maintain its majesty, so why are you still taking the lead in causing trouble there? How can this be convincing the public in the future? ”
Fushengye lowered his eyebrows and said, "It was my mistake, I am willing to admit punishment." ”
Gesang Yuzhen said: "How can you be punished easily if you are an elder, just admit your mistake." But we have to let the inferior people know that if they make mistakes, they will not be merciful, you hand over Su Mo! That's it. ”
Fushengye raised his injured right hand and said: "Su Mo accidentally injured his fellow doorman, he is very guilty, and he was stopped by me last night to apologize for his crimes......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted. Yanzhong pretended to be distressed and said, "What are you stopping him from doing, let him go like that and be more decent." ”
Gesang Yuzhen said: "Where is Su Mo now?" ”
Fushengye said: "He was sentenced to exile for 3,000 miles, and he has already gone down the mountain this morning.
Yan Zhong said angrily: "Who gave the verdict, I don't even know as the head of the adjudication department. Besides, killing fellow disciples is a serious crime, and the Moon God Temple has no right to execute without authorization, and it must be reported to the local yamen for judicial trial. ”
Fushengye smiled indifferently and said: "Not to mention that Su Mo accidentally injured his fellow disciples by fair means during the samurai battle, even if he is really the murderer of the murder, His Royal Highness the Great Prince has the right to pardon his capital crime." ”
Everyone was silent when they heard the words of the floating leaves.
A female monk hurriedly ran outside the door of the Moon God Temple, she was a sword cultivator of the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting. This sword cultivator came to the main hall and presented Gesang Yuzhen with a silver edict of the Red Gold Khanate.
The Silver Leaf Edict was an edict within the Red Gold Khanate that could only be used by princes and queens, and was second only to the Golden Edict issued by the Red Gold Khan.
Gesang Yuzhen got up and respectfully accepted the edict and read it out in front of everyone.
The edict declared that the eldest prince Mo Kemo had pardoned Su Mo's capital crime, commuted the sentence to a fine and sentenced him to exile for 3,000 li, and was not allowed to return to the snowy region for life without being recalled.
For many, this sentence is no different from the death penalty.
Gesang Yuzhen finished reading out the silver foil edict and looked at everyone meaningfully.
Fushengye said, "Who has any objections to this verdict, you can mention it now." ”
All the elders looked at each other, and they were all secretly wondering what Fu Shengye had done to make the noble prince go and issue a silver foil edict for a samurai who was born as a slave.
In the hearts of many elders, Su Mo's life was not worth a single piece of silver leaf.
Gesang Yuzhen said: "Even if this matter is over, no one is allowed to mention it in the future." Now let's talk about the Seventeenth Prince's horrific attack on the frozen lake yesterday. What do you all think. ”
Yan said solemnly: "How is the seventeenth prince's injury?" ”
Gesang Yuzhen said: "Fortunately, the cavalry trained nearby arrived in time to rescue Prince Huayan, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." The Seventeenth Prince is currently recovering from his injuries in the Dawn Pass, and his life is not in danger. ”
Yan Zhong said: "That's really lucky! Who would have thought that the murderer would be a swarm of rats, and it seems that our next step is to destroy all the rats near the Twin Peaks so that such incidents never happen again. ”
When everyone heard Yanzhong's words, they all looked at him with strange eyes, and Yanzhong stared at Yanzhong like an idiot without disguise.
Yan Zhong said: "You all see what I do, do you have a better way?" ”
Gesang Yuzhen said: "Please Princess Aya and the Xiyan of the Imperial Wind Department to sacrifice to the temple." ”
Princess Aya, who was dressed in a witch's black robe, walked into the Moon God Hall in a dignified and solemn manner.
Xiyan followed behind her, she was wearing a sacrificial white robe, and she walked fresh and elegant.
Two people are seated in VIP seats. All the elders stood up to greet Princess Aya.
Xiyan sat beside Princess Aya and glanced sideways at Fushengye, and found that he was staring intently at Princess Aya, while Princess Aya looked at her toes with empty eyes.
Gesang Yuzhen said: "Yesterday, when the seventeenth prince encountered a rat infestation in the ice lake, fortunately, Donghu people Qianluo and Cheng Xinghe risked their lives to save him, otherwise the consequences would be really unimaginable. Xiyan is a priest of the Donghu Imperial Wind Division, and she believes that the rat infestation is man-made, so it is important to find out who can drive the rats to commit the murder. ”
Princess Aya said: "The day before yesterday, the demons caused trouble in Dongshan, and you must have heard of the power of demon weapons." There are many methods of demons, and it is not impossible to drive away rats. ”
Xi Yan said: "Not only demons, but also many powerful people who can drive all kinds of beasts.
Yan Zhong said: "His Royal Highness the eldest prince and Princess Aya also have spirit beasts, do they also know the way of beasts?" ”
Gesang Yuzhen trembled when she heard Yanzhong's words, and thought to herself why she hadn't found out that Yanzhong was such an idiot before, which pot was not opened.
Xiyan said: "His Royal Highness the eldest prince and Princess Aya are just raising spirit beasts, which is different from driving beasts. Raising spirit animals is just like raising cats and dogs, and it is only the category of raising pets. Driving beasts is like keeping pigeons and falcons, or playing monkey tricks. They all seem to have pets, but their ends and means are different. The former is only raised but rarely taught, and the latter pays more attention to the domestication of pets. ”
"Is this like the difference between a regular army and a robber?" Raising spirit animals is to do serious things, and driving beasts is to do bad things? ”
Xiyan said: "It's been a long time since the Animal Taming Department was slaughtered and someone has been able to control rats and harm others like this. So Princess Aya and I both think that this rat infestation must be the work of the remnants of the Animal Taming Department. We have already escalated the matter to Snowdrifter and expect a response soon. ”
Princess Aya said: "At present, it is not far from the start of the Sword of Young Division's Sword Competition, and there will be contestants from various departments coming to Twin Peaks one after another in the next few days, and we must do everything we can to ensure their safety." This matter is related to the reputation of the Moon God Temple and the stability of the various tribes of the Mangyuan, so please be cautious and not take it lightly. ”
Gesang Yuzhen said: "Let's adjust the personnel deployment of Xishan. Elder Yanzhong returned to Wenxuan Pavilion to preside, and Fusheng Ye temporarily took the position of the head of the Adjudication Division, and was also responsible for all matters related to the Sword of Young Division's Sword Competition, and was responsible for ensuring the protection of all contestants. Meeting! ”
After the Dongshan meeting, the major elders of Xishan were all confused. Yan Zhong pretended to pack up his things and moved back to Wenxuan Pavilion, while Fushengye immediately began to take over all the affairs of the Adjudication Division. Elder Yan was not reused in the two personnel changes, and his mood became depressed and he began to develop the habit of drinking alcohol.
Drifting Snow City ordered the Dawn Pass garrison to dispatch 1,000 elite warriors of the Pioneer Battalion to the outskirts of the West Mountain, led by Princess Aya, who was responsible for investigating the remnants of the Beast Taming Department.
After Fushengye took over as the head of the adjudication department, he was already the most powerful person in Xishan. Of course, if he can't handle the relationship with the other elders well, he will also be hollowed out like Yanzhong.
Huaxin is very happy about the promotion of floating leaves. The people on the West Mountain were all talking in private, saying that the reason why Fushengye was able to become the head of the Adjudication Division was entirely because of his sister Han Xiye.
Because judging from the current situation, Han Xiye is more and more likely to become a young master.
Fusheng Ye knew that his position as the first seat of the West Mountain was a fire pit, and if he didn't do it, he would not only lose his position as an elder, but even be driven out of the Twin Peaks.
In order to save Su Mo, he secretly visited the eldest prince Mo Kemo last night. He offered to do two things for the eldest prince Mo Kemo, as long as the eldest prince agreed to help Su Mo resolve the crisis.
The eldest prince still insisted that he only promise to do one thing. That is to give him the sword of the young master's life.
Fushengye readily agreed, but he didn't want to owe Mo Kemo a favor, so he had to help Mo Kemo do one more thing.
Mo Kemo couldn't stand his repeated pleas, and in the end he just made him promise not to do one thing. Floating Leaf asked Mo Kemo what he couldn't do.
Mo Kemo hesitated and told him repeatedly: "If one day I want to take Han Xiye to the Sun God Temple, I hope you don't stop me." Because at that time, there was no place in the world more suitable for her than the Temple of the Sun God. ”
Because Fushengye had overheard the conversation between the third prince and Gesang Yuzhen, he also knew something about the legend of the catastrophe physique, and what he didn't expect was that the eldest prince's cultivation would also covet the catastrophe physique. He knew that if he persuaded the eldest prince to let Han Xiye go at this time, it would be tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger. So he pretended not to know anything about the legend of the catastrophe physique, and took the opportunity to ask the eldest prince Mo Kemo to get the position of the head of the ruling department.
He deliberately appeared to be greedy for power in order to paralyze the eldest prince, and in private he had already begun to plot a way out.
On the ancient beacon tower, Su Mo looked into the distance, waiting for the arrival of floating leaves.
This is the place where he and Fushengye have agreed to say goodbye. After nightfall, the stars were shining, and the floating leaves and the painting heart came to the ancient beacon tower side by side.
Fushengye said to the two of them: "If I am the demon that the world says, are you afraid of me?" ”
Su Mo and Huaxin looked at each other and smiled: "If that's the case, then it must be the world's fault." ”
"People are always afraid of the unknown and imagine the unknown as bad. In fact, the unknown is not necessarily a dark corner, and there will be a bright world. Today I will tell you many of my secrets, and if you think I can be trusted, you will continue to follow me, and if you want to leave me with other thoughts, I will not blame you. ”
Su Mo said: "Master, you don't have to say anything, Su Mo will always look at you as the horse, and I will do whatever you ask me to do." ”
The painting heart also nodded again and again.
Fushengye said to Su Mo: "Passing through the tribe of the Donghu people, and then north is Cold Iceland. The savages there drink the blood of Maoru and don't know what it means to educate. In the early years, the Khan of Ramosa had ordered the eldest prince Mo Kemo to put that area under the rule of the Chijin Khanate. But this was just a piece of paper, and no one in the Red Gold Khanate was willing to manage the barren land. So so far it has been just a penal colony for a bunch of criminals. That inhospitable ice field is the destination of your trip. ”
Su Mo said: "What should I do when I get there?" ”
"As far as I know, there is a vast expanse of land to the north of that ice field. I want you to take the Floating Samurai to exonerate a piece of our own homeland there. ”
