When Yuan Hong heard the leopard's hiss, his brows were also tight, and he copied the inkstone with his left hand and threw it towards the door, shouting loudly

"Big eyes!"

Then he commanded Qingyun again,

"Raise the fire!"

Qingyun understood, pulled a few pieces of paper and went to the incense burner.

It's just that this incense is small, and it is still quite troublesome to use it to ignite pulp paper.

The sound of the leopard hissing in his ears became clearer and clearer, Qingyun couldn't hold back the shaking of his hands, and almost extinguished the incense several times.

At this moment, a figure swept straight from outside the house, and saw him appear from behind the four mottled beast shadows, but he came first and rushed into the door.

The man's body was as swift as a ghost, and his hair was scattered like a wolf's blade, dragging out a zigzag afterimage.

The person flashed into the house, and his feet did not stop, and he kicked the broken inkstone out of the door.

The thick black ink spilled on the ground, and a sweet scent of ambergris spread through the air.

The four snow leopards have red eyes, as if hunger has triggered the most primitive greed of living beings.

But they are more in awe of the laws of nature than humans, and the dangerous aura of ambergris from the overlord of the sea makes them dare not surpass it for a while.

The big man, who was faster than a leopard, closed the door with a clatter, and was about to bolt it.

Yuan Hong's cold voice was still a step slower after all,

"Don't close the door!"

Dahan wanted to open the door again, but it was too late.

The snow leopard's nerves are extremely sharp, and their prey suddenly disappeared from sight, and they immediately noticed the ventilation windows around them.

The beast's mind was simple-minded, so it was resolute, and without a moment's hesitation, the four snow leopards divided into two teams and sandwiched themselves from the side window.

The big man shot down a window bolt with his palm, and a leopard's head had already pushed in, the window lattice was shattered, and the window paper was scattered.

The big man shouted loudly and punched the snow leopard in the forehead.

Hearing a low wail, the leopard was shocked so that its neck shrank back, its front paws were lifted into the air, and half of its body sank.

But another snow leopard had already stepped on the shoulders of its companions.

The big man picked up half of the window lattice, stabbed it forward with the hideous fracture of the canine teeth, and plunged it into the snow leopard's right eye.

The leopard snorted and flipped out.

While the man was fighting with the two snow leopards, the window on the other side had been shattered.

The paper in Qingyun's hand had just ignited some flames at this time, and he couldn't tell the difference.

Seeing that the situation was urgent, he shouted to Yuan Hong,

"There's a sword under the table!"

Yuan Hong reached out, touched the hilt of the sword, shook his wrist, and directly pulled the sword out of the sheath.

The cold light flashed, Yuan Hong let out a melancholy sigh, and a sword shadow streamer, like a Hong gradually in Kui, floated like a fairy, and twisted towards the two beast heads that poked in.

"The wind is blowing. On the nineth, Hong gradually in Kui, its feathers can be used as a ceremony. ”

This is the most elegant and atmospheric of the five Takuro.

Qingyun just read Gai Kun's annotation two days ago, how could he not know it?

At this time, he saw that the King of Wei actually used his own sword move, which was as pure as this, and he was stunned for a while, and the posture in his hand froze still, and the flame ignited just by this momentum.

Qingyun was startled, and hurriedly shook the fire ball in his hand, and when he came back to his senses, he remembered that he wanted to set it on fire, so he hurriedly picked up the papers on the case and threw them into the red flame one by one.

Yuan Hong forced back two fierce beasts with a single sword, stabbing the front paw of a snow leopard, but did not risk pursuit.

Seeing that Qingyun had already ignited the paper, he cut off a piece of curtain and threw it at the fire.

The big man on the other side had no weapons, and his left arm had been scratched by a leopard's claw, although the wound was not deep, but the blood was gushing out, and he looked a little embarrassed.

But the situation of the two leopards who confronted him was even worse, one was blind, the other was covered with wooden thorns on his shoulder, his nose was bleeding, his mouth was salivating, and he did not dare to pounce at will.

The big man had a moment to breathe, and then relied on his body to kick over two columns of bookshelves.

As the fire grew, King Wei and the man retreated into the fire.

The snow leopard roared a few times outside the house, and when it saw the fire, it was quite frightened, but it just paced around the house, hoping to find a flaw, and did not dare to break in for a while.

Suddenly, the voices of several children sounded outside the door,

"Ugly slave, release the bait, lure those beasts over, and don't let him hurt anyone.

Mingda, under the lasso.

Big, come and pull the rope for me. ”

This is not the wild, and time is extremely tight to unfold a trap that tightens automatically.

Therefore, Xiao Poluo Khan Baling quickly guided a few children to arrange the animal hunting lasso that needed to be actively activated.

This kind of lasso is similar to the trapping frame of the bird, and it has to pull the rope at the moment when the beast enters the rope, which has extremely high requirements for reaction.

These children did not want to see the snow leopards hurt people, nor did they want the leopards to die because of this, and took the risk of trying to capture the beasts alive, and they really did not know whether they should be considered bold or fearless as ignorant.

Yuan Hong saw the situation clearly through the broken window hole, and sighed,

"Vertical Eyes hasn't arrived yet, and I'm in some trouble.

You go and protect the children, and don't let them get hurt by the leopards.

There was a fire here, and for a while, it was safe. ”

The man was about to receive the order to go, when he suddenly heard a faint sound of metal crashing, and said hurriedly,

"There are assassins, and Vertical Eye must have already engaged with them."

Yuan Hong's face was very calm, neither panicked nor surprised, but there was a slight sadness in his eyes.

"Well, give a warning signal!

Go and take care of those children quickly, if the beasts are scattered, it will be really troublesome.

Although they are beastly, they are weak after all.

Here, there is a helper here, you can rest assured. ”

The man didn't dare to disagree with King Wei's order, turned over and jumped out of the window, and a Tao Xun in his arms, the whimpering sound sounded a few times, piercing the void and scattering far away.

Yuan Hong shook off his robe and threw his sword at Qingyun,

"You look like your father."

"You, you ......" Qingyun took the sword, knowing that he had seen through his identity, and he didn't know how to answer.

Yuan Hong turned around and didn't look at Qingyun, the firelight reflected on his face, and the two wet marks on his cheeks reflected the swaying red flames, which was particularly conspicuous.

"You haven't seen your father, have you?

But your feelings for him are so sincere, otherwise how could you appear in front of me?

I also have children, who grew up next to me for fifteen years.

But

Ay! You should know who sent you to me, right? ”

Qingyun looked at King Wei in the firelight, he was not as majestic as he imagined, nor was he as majestic as he imagined.

The back in the firelight, lonely, sad, and no different from the crowd.

At this time, the sword was in his hand, and if he wanted to fulfill his father's last wish and resist the capture of the whole of China, he only had to slap his palm.

Will it be the same when the ancestor Qing Ketu was poor?

Qingyun smiled bitterly, he knew that if he made a move at this time, even if he succeeded, even if he retreated, he would not have any happiness and sense of accomplishment.

"You're sad today.

I also don't like to be a tool to be taken advantage of.

There are some things I haven't answered yet.

When I have the answer in my heart, I may come back to you. ”

Yuan Hong suddenly turned his head back, looked at Qingyun carefully, and nodded seriously,

"You're good!

If there's anything you want me to do to help you find out, feel free to come to me.

When you think about it, you can also come to me directly.

The grievance between me and you is a private matter, and I will not use the power of others to resolve it.

You have a token of the Little Dragon King in your hand, right?

When you want to see me, you can take this sign to King Anfeng, and he will help you. ”

Qingyun's eyes suddenly tightened, how did King Wei know that I had this token in my hand, could it be that the eldest brother ......

Yuan Hong saw the change in Qingyun's face and added,

"Do you think your eldest brother gave me your secrets?

You underestimate your eldest brother too much, and you underestimate me as an emperor.

The matter of your sworn worship is well known in Xuzhou, and when you used his token to mobilize the stagecoach, someone had already reported it to me.

You little guys caused such a big disaster in Liang Kingdom, and you still left the stagecoach there, how can you hide it?

You are in front of 500 officers and soldiers in the Lu family, and you received Lu Wenzu's dying blow, do I not know?

Gao Daoyue is dead, the trial of your case has been delayed again and again, and the prince wants to use your card, and his heart is clear.

It's just that I don't want to speculate on his intentions.

As soon as you left the Anfeng Palace, Yan Ming had already reported to me that although he had arranged for someone to pick him up, he was still worried that the prince would use other means.

Hey, the people who just Yanming reported that they didn't wait for you, and I still have hope in my heart in case I hope I won't see you today.

Because once you appear before my eyes,

What I lost was a prince. ”

Yuan Hong has never put on an emperor's posture in front of Qingyun, and only when he mentioned the crown prince at the end, did he call himself a me, and his voice was helpless and sad.

The whimpering wind blew open the door, and the sound of killing approached.

In the distance, countless black-clothed murderers and guards fought each other, and the three black shadows that rushed to the front were wrapped in a bearded man, forcing him to retreat.

The big man's clothes were covered with blood stains, but fortunately, he was born stout, and he didn't hurt the vital points, and it didn't seem to be a big problem between the attacks.

"Big-eyed thief, if you don't make a move, just wait to drink your brother's sacrificial bar!"

A gray shadow floated in,

"Vertical Eyed Horseman! What are you panicking about?

A few cats almost let you drink my brother's sacrificial wine first, where are you? ”

Presumably, a few snow leopards have been dealt with, and the man who fought the leopard together and the bearded man gathered together, guarding the corridor.

The wind blew the half-cut curtains of the east window, and hunted and hunted.

Qingyun suddenly felt a strong push from behind, he looked back at Yuan Hong in amazement, and a cold arrow flew in front of him at this time.

Qingyun's nose couldn't help but itch, as if he had inhaled the delicate hair of Yu Ling.

"Ahh

At this time, his vision looked up at the sky outside the window, and he saw a cold light falling down from the eaves, straight to Yuan Hong.

The man chose to shoot from the blind spot of his vision, just to suddenly complete the whole work with a sword.

However, Yuan Hong caught a glimpse of the sword light from Qingyun's eyes, and reacted half a minute first, raising his hand to slap it on the corner of the table, and the entire mahogany panel bounced up with a bang.

If the long sword struck such a heavy piece of mahogany, it was really a question of whether it could be broken with one blow.

The worst result is that the weapon is broken or clamped, which is equivalent to a complete loss of offensive ability.

In order to avoid the embarrassment of abandoning his sword, the assassin kicked the plank away, and his body fell down.

At this time, the sword light in Qingyun's hand was raised, rising from the ground, his posture stretched, like a flying immortal, and he shot straight at the incoming person.

"Good sword!" Yuan Hong blurted out praise.

This style of "Hong gradually Yu Kui" is the sword he used to force back the snow leopard.

King Wei has been guided by famous teachers since he was a child, and the sword style is strict, and the rules are naturally not bad.

It's just that he is an emperor, and there are not many opportunities to think and digest swordsmanship on weekdays, and there are even fewer opportunities to fight for life and death.

At this time, I saw Qingyun lying on the ground and pulling out a sword casually, although the number of paths taught by the master was different, but he could take advantage of the momentum of turning over, such a flexible and ingenious adaptation was really eye-catching.

The masked man staggered under his feet, hurriedly swinging his sword to block, but how could an ordinary sword block such a forged heavy sword that was specialized in breaking through hundreds of soldiers?

Hearing the sound of the waves, the long sword in the man's hand broke, and he staggered back two steps.

Yuan Hong suddenly untied the jade belt and shook into a flash of light,

"The Hong is gradually on the land, and the husband is not gone"

This is the most ruthless killer in the wind and mountain.

When Yuan Hong saw the man in black make a move, he knew that the other party was a hard idea.

Even if he and Qingyun join forces, a fair battle may not be able to win.

But it happened that the other party wanted to take advantage of the sneak attack, but by mistake, Yuan Hong was surprised and took the lead in counterattacking.

This water dog must naturally be beaten, and he must not leave half a chance for the other party to regain his decline.

Seeing that this sword could not be dodged, the man in black thought of his mission and turned his heart sideways.

With a sword in his hand, Ben Yuanhong stabbed in the chest, trying to fight to break the net.

The snake-like soft sword pierced the throat of the man in black with a pop, but the broken sword also slammed firmly into Yuan Hong's chest and abdomen.

A thorny metal grinding sound gnawed at the crane's robe, revealing a golden-scaled chalcedony armor inside.

The blade of the sword was stripped of its strength by the outer layer of gold and copper foil, and slashed against the rows of hard chalcedony, like a dead dog dragged upside down on its hind feet, lifelessly allowing its head to rub and collide on the undulating ground until it was completely limpable.

This King Wei's Taoism is really unfathomable, and it seems to be full of flaws, but in fact, he is completely in his hands, and the mechanism is exhausted.

Qingyun had already begun to wonder if he would really have a chance of winning when he faced the "unarmed" King Wei alone before, once he made a rash move.

At this time, the noise in the distance was even louder, and a fierce woman protected the two teenagers with a sword in both hands, and led the guards of the brigade to the front.

The three black-clothed men who were blocked by two big men under the corridor saw that the situation was not good, and turned around to leave.

Suddenly, a swordsman with filial piety in his back was killed, with fire in his hands, ruthless style, offensive and undefended, and it was a desperate way of playing.

The three men in black initially beat up the bearded guest, but they still had the upper hand, and it was already a little difficult for the ghostly man who was like a gust of wind to join the battle group.

There is a way that is not afraid of high Taoism, but is afraid of not dying, and now there is a madman again, which makes the three of them secretly cry bitterly.

Seeing that the madman's messy cloak was flawed from head to toe, but under the pressure of the bearded man and the ghost man, the three men in black had no strength to fight back.

It's just that after about ten faces, one person has already been beheaded by the swordsman.

The remaining two swordsmen no longer had the intention of fighting, and each threw a sword flower to make a false move, and Lao Yan flew away.

But if it's fast, who can compare to the man who fights the leopard?

After a few moments, a man in black took an old punch in his heart, blood spurted wildly, and he fell forward.

At this moment, a sharp sword passed through his chest, and he was able to support his body, and the man turned around in despair, saw the face of the heavy filial piety swordsman clearly, sighed, and closed his eyes.

The three of them were about to look for the third man in black, but they saw that many black-clothed swordsmen in the crowd who were alone were fighting the trapped beasts, and they couldn't distinguish their bodies for a while.

After all, it is a big thing to escort, and the three of them rushed into the meditation room without saying a word, and put out the fire first.

Fortunately, the fire was not large, and only some paper curtains were burned.

The furniture here is made of South China Sea hardwood, which is not easy to catch fire.

Only some of the bamboo slips, the heavy household goods symbolically swallowed a little spark, leaving a pool of charred black, and the fire was deflated.

Yuan Hong patted Qingyun on the shoulder and asked, "Little brother, can I wronged you first?" ”

Qingyun hadn't figured out the situation yet, and suddenly felt a muffled sound in the back, and his eyes were dark, and he didn't know what to do.

When he regained consciousness, he found that he had been tied up with five flowers, and his mouth was stuffed with a silk cloth, so that he could not move or make a sound. But the movement in the room was still clearly audible.

Yuan Hong's tone was solemn at this time, and he increased his majesty,

"Have you counted the murderer's body?"

A young man should come,

"Back to Your Majesty!

has been counted, and the three murderers led by them are indeed the three brothers of the Lu family, Long Ju, Long Xiang, and Long Jiao.

Long Xiang, Long Jiao has been ambushed, but the corpse of the dragon foal has not been seen. ”

"How could the Lu family get so close to the crown prince?"

"Your Majesty!"

When Qingyun heard this voice, he was surprised, isn't this the deputy general of the Lu family, Jin Chongjian?

How did he get here,

"Now the Wuchuan Lu clan is no longer the branch of Wuyuan Lu Fengxian back then.

Wuchuan Lu was originally a descendant of Qi and Miao in the Zhou Dynasty, and the young general's surname was Zhongli, and his ancestors were also Qi people, and he was a general of the Lu family for generations.

A few years ago, the Lu family withered and married the Lu family, but the house was fraudulently used.

Lu Luohan, the general of the split family, complained about the Lu clan who occupied the dove's nest and seized the family, but he was assassinated by the murderers.

The matter was originally an ugly affair of the Lu family, and it was not reported to the Holy Hearing in time.

It is for this reason that Danchen has been enduring humiliation and staying undercover in the Lu family.

Today's Wuchuan Lu clan is actually a Yujiulu royal family that fled from Rouran.

Although they were frustrated in the Rouran Royal Court, they were not completely powerless, just waiting for an opportunity to turn over.

So I secretly communicated with those princes who did not want to move south, trying to borrow from each other in order to make a comeback.

Prince, prince, he and those princes of the city of peace......"

"I see.

Big eyes, what's going on on King Zhongshan's side. ”

"Your Majesty!

King Zhongshan is a pillar of the army and has no objections.

It's just that the prince also attaches great importance to family affection and morality, and those nobles in Daidi saw this and encouraged him a lot.

However, it is not ...... Lord Zhen has already persuaded him, and King Zhongshan has made up his mind to maintain His Majesty's southward migration policy at this time! ”

"Oh? Yuan Zhen: How did he do it? ”

"Hey, Lord Zhen's tongue is the king of the battle group.

Those princes of the land kept the old system of Xianbei and did not know poetry and books, and they were naturally not the opponents of the prince Zhen between their tongues, so they did it......

King Zhen was outnumbered, and he had no intention of fighting back, and was beaten by the kings to death.

When the king of Zhongshan heard the news and came to the rescue, he died to the king of Zhongshan, and blood and tears fell.

This bitter trick really made the king of Zhongshan die,

It's just a pity that Lord Zhen, at this moment,

Hey, the king of Zhongshan left him in the house to recuperate, and planned to wait for the injury to stabilize before choosing the opportunity to send King Zhen to Beijing. ”

"What?"

Yuan Hong got up and kept pacing in the room, choking up,

"King Zhen is the elder of my clan that I respect the most.

Back then, I cut his royal status just a tacit understanding between each other.

He raised the righteous army for me and took the lead in supporting the southward migration initiative.

…… Cui Xiu! ”

"In!" It was the young man who spoke first.

"It is proposed to restore the king of Zhennan An, increase the number of thousands of households, add the general of the north of the town, and the history of the Xiangzhou assassin, effective today!"

"No!"

"Wuchuan Lu Wenzu, neglecting his duties and being greedy for military salaries.

He was dismissed from his post on the same day and served as a prisoner on death row. ”

"No!"

Although this Lu Wenzu is dead, there must always be an official statement for the aftermath of public opinion.

Yuan Hong didn't bring the prince in at this time, could it be that the prince's crime of trying to rebel was just revealed?

Although Cui Xiu should be on his lips, he was also muttering in his heart at this time.

"Lieutenant Gao Daoyue, the imperial historian, is conscientious and outspoken.

Posthumously sealed the Marquis of Xinchang County, Zhen Zhen, Jiasan Cavalry Attendant, and Guanzhou Assassin History. ”

"Whoa!"

"Is there any news for the prince?"

"The prince wants to go out of the north of the city lightly, and he has been won by the leader of the army. He is currently under house arrest in Kim Yong. ”

"Hmm.

The prince is stubborn and violates morality;

Killing the minister without permission also violated the courtier's morality, and he was deposed on the same day.

Temporarily collected in Baode Temple to chant and repent! ”

"Whoa!"

"Big Eyes, is the assassin who attacked me in the study just now also the Lu family?"

"Just about to show your majesty.

The assassin had the Snake Slashing Villa's brand on his body, and he was a sword slave of the Villa. ”

"Oh? Does Snake Slashing Villa have anything to do with this? ”

"I'm not sure.

After all, the Snake Slashing Villa is a Jianghu organization, and the sword slaves of the Villa each have their own relationship with the rivers and lakes.

The minister has checked all the corpses of the thieves in the temple today, and he is the only one who is from the Snake Slashing Villa, which may not be due to personal reasons. ”

"Hmm. Send someone to send this corpse to the King of Song and ask him to give an explanation. ”

"Whoa!"

"Are the results of the investigation over there out?"

"The Baode Temple Animal Garden has always been in charge of Erzhu Xinxing, and people are waiting outside."

"Erzhu Xinxing? The son-in-law of Liang Guojun? ”

"Exactly."

"Oh? Interesting, announce him in. ”

Qingyun was lying on the ground, only to see a few pairs of riding boots pacing in and out.

The man who came in later seemed to be carrying something in his hand, dripping blood, and as the man's footsteps swayed, leaving a strange tadpole on the floor, as if some kind of most vicious curse.

》》》》》 time to knock on the blackboard《《《《《

The protagonist of other people's families is either strategizing and directing the country, or he is happy to enmity in ten steps. Isn't this chess piece that can only be played against others very weak? I also feel weak, after all, the protagonist is still young, the book has just begun, and it will take some time for him to transform from a spectator to a conductor.

By the way, the second appearance of Jin Chongjian in this chapter is actually an easter egg, about the story behind him, I hope you will dig it yourself, so that it will be more interesting.

Today, we are knocking on the blackboard, and we are talking about the ancient Chinese concept of nations.

The concept of "nation" was immature in ancient times, and the family, tribe, and state were the subjects that the ancients were more concerned about. Han nationality as an ethnic designation is a modern concept. The Qin, Han, Jin, Tang, Song, and Ming are all names given to Chinese by foreigners in different dynasties and regions, and these titles sometimes have a chronological lag.

In the present biography "Twenty-four History", except for the "Book of Han", the word "Han people" was first seen in Ouyang Xiu's "History of the New Five Dynasties", and only appeared in Khitan-related entries. In addition, even in the "History of the Old Five Dynasties" (that is, the official "Liang, Tang, Jin, Han and Zhou Books"), the term Han people is not used. "The History of the New Five Dynasties" is a private history, which was made by Ouyang repairing the "Old History". It is conceivable that "Han people" was just the name of the Khitan people for the Guannei people at that time, and it was directly quoted by Ouyang Xiu. This title originated outside the Guan, and later became the Jurchens' fixed name for the Jiangbei Huaxia people (Jiangnan called the Nanren), and was used in the Jin and Qing dynasties. Several generations of Jurchens have continued to use the title "Han", which is a customary title solidification, and some countries still call China Qin, Tang or Khitan, which is actually a truth. After all, if there is a first-person history of the Guanwai tribes, it must be called Tanshi Huai, and it must be called the refusal of the Han king's gift, and the establishment of an empire from Tuyuhun in the west to Korea in the east. If you look at that period of history from an objective point of view, King Tan and King Han are two imperial heads of state who can be seen equally. The confrontation with the Han Dynasty represents the most glorious past of the Donghu regional group.

The three dynasties of the Later Tang Dynasty, the Later Jin Dynasty, and the Later Han Dynasty contained in the "History of the Old Five Dynasties" were all Hu emperors, including the Northern Dynasties after the Five Hu Rebellions.

The ancient Huaxia people, in the final analysis, are an agrarian ethnic group that relies on cultural bonding, and the so-called Hu, Yi, Man, Di, and Rong are actually based on the regional concept under the framework of "Huayi Five Directions", and the product of the class concept based on "Shishu is different".

Tuoba Xianbei has a country, regards itself as China, respectfully adheres to the Han rites, and traces the origin of the Yellow Emperor. In his official history and biography, the bald hair department of the same sect is still in Yi, because of the regional structure of the five parties of Huayi. Tuoba reuses the scholar clan, respects the five surnames and seven wangs, and the king Xie Zhuqing, who returned to the north, is also a high-ranking official, so it is accepted by the Central Plains Taoism. After the millennium, from the Northern Dynasties, Sui, Tang to the Five Dynasties. The Xianbei aristocracy has always been active in the inner circle of the Chinese regime, and the surnames of Changsun, Yuwen, Dugu, Yuchi, Qu, Xue, Dou, Duan, and Di have all been fully integrated into the Central Plains Shi circle.

Of course, when it comes to the ancient concept of nations, no one does not mention the two concepts of "Migration Rong Theory" and Tu Hu Ling. In particular, the sentence "If you are not of my race, your heart will be different" has almost become a sacred text for Han nationalists. But how many people have actually read the full text? We'll continue in the next section for more details.
