Chapter 521: Success in the Sky (6) Change the sword
Shi Feiqing entered the palace with the welcoming team, and suddenly had a feeling.
Although, on the bright side, Shi Feiqing is the protagonist of the greeting team, and everyone is around him, it should be the effect of a star holding the moon. But Shi Feiqing only felt that he was not the protagonist at the moment, but a prisoner caught in a heavy encirclement.
Isn't it?
Now this greeting brigade is a greeting brigade to put it mildly, but it is a team led by Shi Feidu and specially escorting Shi Feiqing. Their duty is not to protect the peace of Shi Feiqing, but to use violence to quickly subdue Shi Feiqing when he makes any rash moves.
As soon as he thought of this, Shi Feiqing shuddered.
Right now, it's just past Yin, and it's the darkest time. The greeting team held torches in their hands and relied on the faint light of the fire to illuminate the way ahead and slowly move forward. It was too dark, and in order to avoid accidents, the speed of the team was very slow, but because he knew that Shi Wenzheng was still waiting for them in the palace, Shi Feidu still urged them to step up.
Entering the palace, the greeting procession stood neatly, waiting for Shi Zhizheng to appear for review.
Shi Wenzheng didn't know if it was because he was still sick, or because he didn't have the heart to approach the welcoming team and approaching Shi Feiqing, he just stood on a high platform, overlooking Shi Feiqing and the welcoming team, surrounded by the little eunuchs, and waved to Shi Feiqing and the welcoming team from afar.
Li Yu hurriedly ran up to the high platform, went to Shi Wenzheng's side, and replied to him. Shi Wenzheng whispered a few words in Li Yu's ear, Li Yu cleared his throat, walked to the edge of the high platform, and said the cliché that there was no business.
Shi Feiqing waited silently, for him, at this moment, what he needed most was to calm down.
Shi Wenzheng's cliché is really not short, Shi Feiqing was in a trance, and when Li Yu said it, he found that a quarter of an hour had passed. But in any case, as soon as this cliché is over, the greeting brigade will start from Le'an Mansion and go to Tumubao.
Sure enough, after Li Yu listened to Shi Wenzheng's few whispers again, he stood up and sang loudly: "Pass on the emperor's message: In order not to miss the auspicious time, I ordered the Leshan Gong to be non-Qing and the king of Wu to be non-Du, immediately lead the team to welcome relatives and rush to Tumubao to welcome the Hun princess!" Chin this! ”
"Son's Command!"
Shi Feiqing and Shi Feidu knelt down to receive the order, and then turned the horse's head and prepared to leave the palace.
Shi Feiqing had just stepped out of the palace with his front foot, ready to turn over and get on the horse, who thought that as soon as he stepped on the stirrup, the sound of cheering came from behind him.
"Leshan is slow and slow! Leshan Gong, and wait for the old slave! ”
Shi Feiqing frowned, turned his head, and found that it was Li Yu who had caught up. Li Yu has been a lot of years, and he has a big belly because of a long-term lack of exercise, and at this moment, the old palace manager, gritted his teeth, ran out of breath, and came after him with a few little eunuchs, it seems that there is something important to say.
It's all at this juncture, what else can I say about it?
Shi Feiqing suddenly became sensitive.
Li Yu finally caught up with Shi Feiqing, and he was determined to speak immediately, but he couldn't breathe in his chest.
Shi Feiqing hurriedly hugged his hand and said, "Manager Li doesn't need to be in a hurry, first smooth out his breath, and then speak slowly." ”
Li Yu smiled bitterly and said intermittently: "Old slave...... The old slave didn't dare to ...... Even Leshan Gong missed the auspicious time to welcome his relatives. ”
Time is not
Kiyoshi just laughed dryly.
As he spoke, Li Yu gestured to the little eunuch who followed behind him. The little eunuch understood, holding a brocade box in both hands, approached between Shi Feiqing's arms, bowed slightly, and raised the brocade box towards Shi Feiqing, and raised it above his head.
Shi Fei Qingqi said: "This is?" ”
Li Yu finally panted out, patted his chest, and said: "Leshan Gong, in this brocade box, it is a gift from the emperor, and it is for Leshan Gong to welcome his relatives this time." Open it! ”
As soon as Li Yu ordered, another little eunuch who followed behind him immediately stepped forward and opened the lid of the brocade box.
At the moment when the lid of the brocade box was lifted, a burst of eye-catching golden light burst out, and Shi Feiqing's eyes were sour.
This is......
Shi Feiqinghu looked suspiciously, and found that in the brocade box, there was a long sword with a hilt made of pure gold, the blade of the sword was not opened, and the sword body was decorated with nine eyeball-sized gems that shimmered with seductive light. The eye-piercing golden light just now was reflected by the bright light emitted by the surrounding torches, which was reflected by this long sword full of jewels.
Shi Feiqing was stunned for a moment, and for a moment, he didn't know how to react.
Li Yu was in a hurry to finish the matter, so he couldn't care about Shi Feiqing's reaction, and said directly: "Leshan Gong, today is your day of great joy, and it is also the day when Dawu and the Xiongnu conclude peace, but you are equipped with a long sword, which is really inappropriate." Therefore, the emperor gave this nine-star beaded sword, hoping that Leshan Gong could hand over his sword to the old slave for safekeeping, and only took this nine-star beaded sword to Tumu Fort. ”
Li Yu blinked his eyes as he spoke, as if to say, what is wrong with the sword, and why Shi Wenzheng gave this sword, Shi Feiqing himself should also know.
The long sword belongs to the murder weapon, which is indeed a bad omen on the day of great joy. In addition, this family affair is not an ordinary family affair, but a diplomatic act of peace between Dawu and the Xiongnu. Shi Feiqing and the Xiongnu princess, strictly speaking, are not only a couple, but also diplomatic envoys sent by Dawu and the Xiongnu.
When the two diplomatic envoys met, Shi Feiqing actually wore a murder weapon, which is indeed inappropriate in all aspects.
If it was in normal times, Shi Feiqing would definitely gladly agree, took off his sword, took the nine-star Lianzhu sword, and happily turned over his horse and followed the Yingqin Brigade to open the civil fort.
The problem is that this time the civil fort welcomes relatives, and there is a huge danger buried. Shi Feiqing must be prepared to deal with Shi Feiqing at any time. If he handed over his sword at this time and replaced it with a useless "sword", it would be tantamount to giving half of his life to Shi Feidu!
The time was not clear, and he became nervous all of a sudden.
What made Shi Feiqing even more nervous was the vicious gaze of Shi Feidu behind him. He clearly felt that at this moment, Shi Fei Du was staring at him directly, looking at him to see what decision he was going to make.
If Shi Feiqing refused to replace the sword and took the Nine-Star Lianzhu Sword, Shi Feiqing would definitely be vigilant and might make a move in advance.
Shi Feiqing is now in an embarrassing dilemma. Whatever he does, he is at great risk.
Liuchuan, Zhao Zhong, Mu Fengyang and Liu Qingyan could also feel Shi Feiqing's current embarrassment. It's just that they are just mere retinues, and here they are a subordinate, and they definitely have no right to put their beaks. No matter how anxious they are, they can only watch Shi Feiqing alone.
Sighing secretly, Shi Feiqing finally made up his mind
Resolved.
"I have to pay attention to my father, otherwise this duke, wouldn't he have made a fuss with his relatives this time? This nine-star even jeweled sword, Duke Ben accepted it, and asked Mr. Li to act on behalf of Duke Ben and thank his father for his love. ”
As he spoke, Shi Feiqing took off his saber and handed it to Li Yu, and then took out the Nine Star Lian Jewel Sword from the brocade box and tied it to his waist.
In this way, Li Yu can make a difference, Shi Feiqing also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this matter is over, you can continue to set off, who would have thought that Shi Feidu at this time, suddenly ran out, and asked knowingly: "Fifth brother, Manager Li, is this because of the delay?" The welcoming team must go to the civil fort early, so as not to lose the dignity of our great martial arts. ”
Shi Feiqing hugged his hand and was about to explain, but Li Yu took the lead and said: "Back to King Wu, the old slave did not have the intention of delaying the Duke of Leshan, the King of Wu, and the welcoming team. In fact, the emperor found that the Duke of Leshan was carrying a sword, and he went to the civil fort with such a murder weapon, so he did not agree with the ceremony, so he came with the old slave and asked the old slave to replace the sword of the Duke of Leshan with the imperial gift of the Nine Stars and the jeweled sword. Now that this matter has been completed, the welcoming team can naturally continue to set off. The old slave is here, wishing the Duke of Leshan and the King of Wu ......"
"Wait."
Before Li Yu finished his congratulatory speech, he was interrupted by Shi Feidu, who glanced at Shi Feiqing suspiciously, and said strangely: "Fifth brother, today is your big day, you even carried the murder weapon to make a trip, what does this mean?" ”
Shi Feidu really kicked his nose and cheek too much, Shi Feiqing didn't intend to be provoked by him, showed a decent and polite smile, and replied: "The foolish brother was just negligent for a while, and he didn't have any special intentions." ”
"Well, it's best if you don't have any special intentions." Shi Feidu stroked his palms and laughed, it looked like he was going to expose the matter, who would have thought that he would change his words and say coldly, "It's just, fifth brother, it seems that there is more than a sword in the murder weapon you are carrying, right?" Don't you still have a musket at your waist? ”
Shi Feiqing's eyes widened for a moment, and the four of Liuchuan, Zhao Zhong, Liu Qingyan and Mu Fengyang couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Shi Feidu.
Shi Feiqing suddenly realized that the original matter of asking him to replace the sword on his body with the nine-star jeweled sword was not an impromptu intention of Shi Qianzheng, I am afraid that Shi Feidu and Shi Feizheng had already prepared and wanted to remove all the weapons on his body in every way.
The sword is gone, the musket is gone, and Shi Feiqing, who is bare-handed, faces a hundred dead soldiers and five hundred Di family soldiers, no matter how high his martial arts skills are and how great his skills are, he will not perform much better than a child with a sharp weapon.
Shi Feizheng and Shi Feidu, they are really well prepared, they are iron-hearted, and they will never let Shi Feiqing leave the civil fort alive.
Shi Feiqing only felt a chill down his spine.
Even if he is not right with the time, he is not at the right time, and he has already fallen into a situation of incompatibility because of the succession, but he has never had murderous intentions towards these two brothers. On the contrary, Shi Feiqing always thought that he should use the softest means to deal with Shi Feizheng and Shi Feidu. This is because Shi Feiqing always believes that he and Shi Fei are not right, and sometimes they are not right, and their blood is thicker than water.
At this moment, Shi Feiqing was finally awakened by the cruel truth. No matter how merciful and optimistic he is, he can't shake the cruelty of Shi Feizheng and Shi Feidu. Today's battle at Tumubao, the result, there must be and there is only one.
Or, it's when he dies.
Or, it was he Shi Feiqing who left Tumu Fort alive and defeated Shi Feizheng and Shi Feidu, two treacherous people!
