Chapter 207: The Storm Comes
Chapter 207: The Storm Comes
The Forbidden City
The emperor of the court sat majestically on the golden dragon chair throne and looked down on the ministers.
Prime Minister Ding Dong reported a step forward: "Emperor Qi, the Military Intelligence Department has received a secret report that there is a gang of bandits gathered in Leiyang, Shandong Province to incite the people, and the situation is urgent, and the emperor is asked to send people to exterminate them as soon as possible." ”
For a time, there was a lot of discussion about the martial arts of the Manchu Dynasty, and the people were panicked.
The Son of Heaven raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "There is such a thing?" What is the origin of those bandits, Aiqing said in detail. ”
Ding Dong, who was old, twisted his fat waist and said respectfully: "It is reported that the leader of this gang of bandits is called Chen Wu'an, who was originally a small official who led troops to fight, and was later arrested and sentenced for injuring people with the wrong hand. Unexpectedly, Chen Wu'an, who was escorted to the capital, was rescued by the mountain bandits, and then Chen Wuan simply went to the mountain and became the leader of the bandits. On weekdays, he took his brothers to do some business of robbing houses and houses, but this time he gathered the people for some reason to incite the people, and even smashed the local prefect's yamen. ”
A military general reported in advance: "Emperor Qiyu, these Diao people have great ability and can't become the climate, and the lower officials are willing to lead the army to exterminate them in order to relieve the emperor's worries." ”
The Son of Heaven spoke: "What Aiqing said is extremely true, I hereby decree to make you the generalissimo of the bandits, and go to exterminate the bandits. ”
Ding Dong and a group of old ministers came out to object: "The emperor thinks that it is impossible, according to the opinion of the old ministers, a veteran like Li Longwei should be sent to lead troops to exterminate them, so as to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”
"Yes, yes, Emperor, it's reassuring for General Li to go!"
"This candidate is none other than General Li!"
The emperor hesitated again and again and said, "Is it inappropriate to send General Li?" ”
Li Longwei replied angrily: "Emperor, if the other party is a fierce enemy, it is incumbent on the minister, but this time it is just a small bandit, what is there to fear?" Isn't this a blatant insult to me? ”
The generals who stood on Li Longwei's side said: "It is inevitable that there is some overkill and a big fuss." ”
The two sides quarreled into a pot of porridge, and the noisy emperor was upset and his ears were calloused.
The Son of Heaven subconsciously set his sights on Zeng Qingfeng.
I saw Zeng Qingfeng report before: "Back to the emperor, Xia Guan is willing to replace General Li Longwei to go to Shandong to exterminate the mob." ”
"Good!" The Son of Heaven stood up and asked, "Which of you still has any objections to this matter?" ”
Both sides fell silent for a moment.
Ding Dong replied: "What the emperor has seen so far is indeed the best candidate, and we have no objections. ”
The Son of Heaven laughed and said, "Okay, I have ordered Mi Zeng Qingfeng to lead the elite soldiers to suppress the bandits." ”
The people below shouted in unison: "Huang Yingming! ”
Gongren Palace
Ding Dong, Fan Dingtian and Concubine Ying gathered to discuss important matters.
Concubine Ying opened her mouth and asked, "Cousin, how are things going?" ”
Ding Dong stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry, everything is planned." ”
Fan Dingtian opened his mouth and said: "Although the emperor sent Zeng Qingfeng to the field to exterminate it, instead of Li Longwei. However, as long as one of them goes, it will clear half of the obstacles for us to support King Kyoin to ascend the throne as emperor. You must know that the Fengyun Club behind Zeng Qingfeng is still very strong in the capital. ”
Ding Dong sneered proudly: "Zeng Qingfeng is probably more than lucky to suppress the bandits this time, he should never have imagined that the military horse he brought was not to suppress the bandits, but to assassinate him." If he brings the forces of Fengyun around him in the capital, maybe he can escape for a while, but in this way, the capital is empty, and it will be much easier for us to gather our strength to deal with Li Longwei's faction. And assuming that he broke into the tiger's den single-handedly, do you think he still has a chance to live? Hahaha......"
Concubine Ying gritted her teeth coldly and said: "This Zeng Qingfeng must die, as far as I know, he has a lot of evidence against us, if he takes the lead to sue the emperor, we are finished." ”
Ding Dong smiled: "I'm afraid the emperor can't even save his own life, will we still be afraid of him?" ”
Fan Dingtian said cautiously: "This operation can only succeed and not fail. On the day of the operation, I will control the Imperial Forest Army and the Escort Army in advance, Lord Ding, you are responsible for leading General Feng and them to deal with Li Longwei, Niangniang, you are in charge of the harem, are the three of us working together to be afraid that things will not work? ”
"Well, be careful, don't show the slightest rumor."
Zeng Mansion Zeng Qingfeng Study
Linghu Subai pushed open the door and came in and said: "Brother Yi, the capital is indeed a little strange these days, first of all, there are a lot of Jinyi guards in the capital, and it seems that they have emerged from other places, as if something big is about to happen." ”
Zeng Qingfeng nodded and said, "It's really abnormal, this is the tranquility on the eve of the storm!" Not only did I find out, but General Li Longwei also found out. Since Ding Dong begged the emperor to suppress the bandits in the court, some forces in the shadows have been ready to move. ”
"Brother Yi, what are your plans? At a critical juncture, do you really want to go to Shandong tomorrow to suppress bandits? Linghu Subai asked.
Zeng Qingfeng said: "The king's order must not be violated, let me think of a way." ”
The housekeeper at the door came to report that someone wanted to see Zeng Qingfeng.
Zeng Qingfeng saw a man dressed as a civilian in front of him and asked, "Who are you?" What's the point of looking for me? ”
The chattering stayed in Zeng Qingfeng's study for a full few hours before leaving.
A few days later, Zeng Qingfeng set off for Shandong with thousands of elite soldiers.
For a while, the mountains and rains in the capital were about to come, and the forces in the shadows began to take action.
That night, a pair of military horses appeared in the northwest corner of the capital, raising fire and asking the defenders to open the door.
Unknowingly, the gate guarded by Li Longwei's subordinate Cao Dudu was closed, and General Xiao and others led the crowd to surround the rebels in all directions, and completely annihilated the rebels who rushed to support Ding Dong.
The rebels led by Ding Dong in the capital and the city guards under the command of General Li Longwei fought to the death in the city.
Overnight, the shouts killed the sky, the wolf smoke was everywhere, the people of the capital were closed, and the people were panicked.
In the palace, the Jinyi Guard led by Fan Dingtian, the Imperial Forest Army, and the other group of Jinyi Guards led by Zeng Qingfeng who wholeheartedly protected the Lord, as well as the people of the Fengyun Society, fought fiercely.
The killing was so that people turned over on their backs, and corpses were all over the field.
Fan Dingtian stared at Zeng Qingfeng incredulously and asked, "Why are you here?" Haven't you already traveled to Leiyang, Shandong? I've seen it with my own eyes. ”
Zeng Qingfeng sneered and said, "Seeing is believing and not necessarily true, do you think the trick you played together can fool us?" The gang of bandits in Leiyang is clearly pretending to be your subordinates, in order to lure away our people, so that you can take the opportunity to usurp the throne. To tell you the truth, a few helmsmen of our Fengyun Society have eliminated your Leiyang's subordinates under the leadership of Big Brother Thunder, but we have blocked the news, and you don't know. ”
A trace of bloodthirsty fierceness flashed in Fan Dingtian's eyes and said, "I understand that your exit from the city is an illusion, and you secretly turned back on the way, right?" ”
Zeng Qingfeng said with a smile: "I didn't go out of the city at all, it was my friend Yuehua who went out of the city instead of me that day to confuse you, he can disguise himself, so it is natural that you will be deceived." ”
"You mean the Medicine King Valley Lord Yuehua?"
"Exactly."
Fan Dingtian's subordinates reported: "The army that came to support was trapped outside the city and has been wiped out by Li Longwei's subordinates. ”
"What?" Fan Dingtian was shocked and shouted angrily: "A bunch of waste." ”
Fan Dingtian asked unwillingly: "How did you see through the plan this time?" ”
Walking out from behind Zeng Qingfeng, Fan Dingtian understood everything after seeing it.
Fan Dingtian looked at him fiercely and shouted, "Why did you betray me? Is it you? ”
Now the chief envoy of Jinyi Wei Zhen Gang opened his mouth and said: "Since the former chief envoy has retired to a high position, isn't it good to enjoy your old age in peace?" ”
"You know what? One step away from our success, how dare you ruin my good deeds? Fan Dingtian's angry eyes were eager to break him into pieces.
Zhengang said coldly: "The subordinates can't do it, under your leadership, Jinyiwei has deviated from the route and is too far away from the original intention, it's time to set things right." I've been determined to do this since a long time ago, and luckily I chose the right camp, otherwise it would have been all of us in Jinyiwei who would have died today. Fan Dingtian, you colluded with Ding Dong's gang to do all the bad things, I didn't expect you to want to conspire against you, your crime is really outrageous! ”
Fan Dingtian stretched out his eagle claw hand and jumped high and shouted, "I'll kill you!" ”
Zeng Qingfeng took to the air to meet Fan Dingtian's attack head-on, and the competition between top masters officially began.
The palm wind gusted, and Zeng Qingfeng's gossip palm densely attacked Fan Dingtian from all directions.
Fan Dingtian used a trick to "turn something into nothing" to easily resolve it.
In the blink of an eye, Fan Dingtian's "earth-shattering thunder" was killed, and Fan Dingtian rose up lightly, suddenly swooping down upside down, and shouted in his mouth: "Shocking thunder, scatter!" ”
"......Boom" seems to have a strange circle in the sky, releasing infinite power.
Zeng Qingfeng raised his sword to the top of his head and shouted: "The sky is spinning, block!" ”
The halo formed by the sword qi hedged in pairs, exuding a huge lethality.
The crowd behind him was shocked out a few meters away as if they had suffered a tornado.
Zeng Qingfeng used the Prajna Mind Method in his body to use the strongest version of the Phantom Sword to attack Fan Dingtian, and Fan Dingtian responded with a move of "killing through the ground".
It was another hard-hitting strong conversation, the Lingxiao Sword in Zeng Qingfeng's hand fell to the ground, and Fan Dingtian saw the opportunity to kill him.
"Snake Shadow Fist"
"Thunderclap"
Fan Dingtian dealt with it with ease, and sneered: "It's useless, without the Ling Xiao Sword, you are not my opponent at all." ”
Zeng Qingfeng waved his right arm and tried to use internal force to pick up the Ling Xiao Sword, but it was a pity that Fan Dingtian, who was quick in his eyes, flew the Ling Xiao Sword more than ten meters away with a move of Eagle Claw Palm.
"What a nuisance!" Zeng Qingfeng couldn't help frowning.
After more than thirty strokes, Zeng Qingfeng's chest placket was cut open.
Fan Dingtian took the opportunity to use the "earth-shattering thunder" again to completely defeat the opponent, and at the critical moment, the Ling Xiao sword roared and flew into Zeng Qingfeng's hand, Zeng Qingfeng tried his best to dodge the deadly attack.
"Is the sword one? Count your fortune! Seeing Fan Dingtian, who was gone, he jumped away from the palace.
Gongren Palace
Linghu Subai had already led a group of people to take down Concubine Ying, and King Gongren, who had no idea, was also implicated and imprisoned.
Waiting for them in the prison was a group of traitors led by Ding Dong, without exception, who were arrested.
Only Fan Dingtian is left as a leaky fish, and he doesn't know where to go for the time being.
