On the seventh day of the winter month of the lunar calendar, the cold wind swept the entire Great Qi, from the south to the north, from the poor to the nobles, everyone seemed to be preoccupied.

The news of the lack of salt in the Great Qi Kingdom swept all over the world like this autumn wind, and the northern captives, who were originally ambitious as wolves, naturally exposed their sharp claws and secretly camped in the northern frontier by surprise;

Da Zhou, who has always been in harmony with Daqi, also gathered part of his army, and responded with the northern captives, sandwiching Daqi like a pie in it, ready to share and eat.

Neighboring countries such as southern Xinjiang and western Xinjiang are also eyeing the changes and waiting to see what happens. It is conceivable that if the Great Qi Kingdom loses miserably against the Great Zhou and the Northern Empire, the other friends and neighbors who have always been kind in the past will not be stingy to bare out their sharp teeth, accurately aim at the throat of the Great Qi, and bite down without hesitation.

The raid surprised Li Xian, Li Fang's father and son, and the battle situation surprised Beiyu and Da Zhou.

Because, it is rumored that the Li family army in Zhenbei, which lacks salt to eat and iron to make swords, not only all the soldiers are wise and martial, but there is no sign of lack of salt at all;

Even the new style of arrowheads also flew like raindrops, pick up and see, where is the iron arrow, it is clearly a fish bone one by one, it looks like a fish bone, but the degree of strength is better than the iron arrow.......

When the two armies met on a narrow road, Li Fang, the young general of Zhenbei, took the lead, invincible, and repeatedly made military exploits, entering 300 miles of Beiyu, killing countless Beiyu war horses, so that Beiyu, a horse nation, would have no war horses available in the next five years.

Compared with this, the king of Luo, who was sent to resist the enemy army of the Great Zhou, was not optimistic, and was chased by the 100,000 troops of the Great Zhou State, and the 300,000 army of the king of Luo, in the case of occupying the time, location, and people, retreated again and again, lost six fortresses in a row, and faintly moved in the direction of the capital.

If Li Fang hadn't led his troops to Jiating Pass, I was afraid that Da Zhou would continue to lose the seventh fortress, the eighth important town, and the ninth state and county....... Let the 100,000 troops of the Great Zhou State enter the realm of no one and go straight into the hinterland of Daqi.

At this time, the king of Luo, the speed of the march can be called a thousand miles a day, more than the most elite army, faintly approaching the capital, but the distance of three or two days.

Lanzhou Guancheng Fu Kang refused to open the city gate, and said that he had received accurate news that the Great Zhou State had a 3,000-dead soldier You Yong, who had sneaked into the capital, all in all, His Majesty was very dangerous, and he was the king of Laiqin.

Fu Kang was a cautious person, and he did not let him go as the other guards of the pass, but pushed and waited for the instructions of the capital city of Gyeonggi, and confronted the 300,000 people stationed in the king with 5,000 people.

Fortunately, King Luo still has some measure, and the result of the negotiation with Fu Kang is to release 5,000 elite soldiers first, and continue to "pursue" the 1,000 dead soldiers on Wednesday, and other soldiers and generals will wait for news from the capital.......

Fu Kang had to let go of these 3,000 people, even if there was no matter of the "dead soldiers" of the Great Zhou Kingdom, and the 3,000 followers of King Luo, he had to let them go, because he did not receive any news of King Luo's rebellion or dissenting intentions.

.......

In the middle of the prison of Dali Temple, the dark walls and tables are full of various torture instruments.

There are bows without arrows, needles without threads, and handkerchiefs without embroidery.......

Although the shapes of these torture instruments are different, everyone knows that their purpose is the same, that is, to make the tortured person regret coming to this world.

Liu Jiayi used her slender jade hand to caress a picture of a girl holding a plum hanging on her side inch by inch, as if she was reluctant to let go of any detail.

sighed in her mouth, stroking the black hair of the girl on the picture, Liu Jiayi smiled and said, "This hair is actually real hair!" Black as carbon, smooth as a waterfall, no wonder it makes men dream!! Good! ”

Stroking the white clothes on the girl in the picture, Liu Jiayi smiled and said: "Oh, this dress is painted with jade clam powder mixed with golden sand powder!" Expensive as a phoenix, as clear as jade, no wonder there are layers of fairy energy!! Good! ”

Stroking the gold-cast lotus bud-like hairpin on the girl's head in the picture, Liu Jiayi wanted to smile again, but her face was already a little cold and stiff and said: "Although this hairpin is only painted by female yellow powder, this style is also very ordinary, but it is a hairpin that the emperor rewarded to my brother and mother, how can it be painted on your slut's head!?" ”

Liu Jiayi couldn't pretend anymore, her tone was full of bloodthirsty anger, and strong jealousy and hatred.

This painting is the painting that Wei Zhixing painted for Mingyue last year, and although it is a painting from this one, there are some changes in the painting.

At that time, the hair in the painting was painted with obsidian powder, and now this painting has been replaced with Mingyue's real hair, which should be sewn on after Mingyue cut the curtain;

At that time, the painting, because the bright moon was replaced with clams powder, the "clothes" in the painting were heated and fell off, becoming the "naked" bright moon, and now in this painting, the clothes have been painted with clams powder again, and the golden sand powder has been added to it, and the night will show a little golden light;

At that time, the painting had no decoration except for a few plum blossoms falling on its head; Now this painting, with a lotus bud-like golden hairpin on the head, although it is just an ordinary orpiment painting, there is such a story behind it.

Liu Jiayi couldn't sit still anymore, so she stood up suddenly, and walked towards the girl sitting opposite her like a fire, as if she wanted to file the girl's bones and ashes.

The two jailers immediately blocked in front of Liu Jiayi, and with a sword swing, one of the ruffian and loyal jailers commanded: "Miss Liu, this person is the person appointed by the emperor for the imperial trial, and his life is not a little bit worse, please Miss respect herself." ”

This was said unceremoniously, where did Liu Jiayi, who was once the princess of Lu, suffer such a grievance, her heart was suddenly unhappy, she raised her hand and wanted to incite the talking jailer to slap her, but Liu Wanling, the guard behind her, grabbed her arm, and said with a red face: "Miss, no, no, don't forget Miss's purpose." ”

Liu Wanling comforted for a long time, let Liu Jiayi sit on the chair again, and turned around, and stuffed a stack of silver tickets into the sleeve of the ruffian jailer in the slightest place.

Although the jailer still stopped in front of Mingyue to prevent Liu Jiayi from exploding and killing Yin Mingyue, his face had already changed from black to red, from cold to trendy, like a spring breeze.

At this time, Mingyue was only a dozen steps away from Liu Jiayi, and the shackles of her hands had been removed, replaced by a table and chair that sat in a circle around her body, and her feet were locked to the iron pillars of the table legs.

In this way, Mingyue's body can only nest between the tables and chairs, and it is impossible to even stand up, but fortunately, she put her hands on the top of the table and got full freedom.

Putting aside the iron railings and circles in front of her that locked her iron tables and chairs, Mingyue was unharmed, she didn't have to worry about food, and the cold and warmth were suitable, where was the treatment like the cage of Dali Temple in the "purgatory on earth"? !

Locking Yin Mingyue in such a circle is the meaning of Lord Qing Shi of Dali Temple.

Lord Shi and Liu Xiangye are in-laws, and their power in the DPRK is far inferior to Liu Xiangye's entanglement, Liu Jiayi used the handle to coerce Liu Xiangye to see Yin Mingyue, Liu Xiangye had to find Lord Shi hard, Lord Shi couldn't save Xiangye's face, one of them;

When Lord Shi first came to office, he didn't wait for his new official to take office three times, but he was dismounted by Shaoqing of Dali Temple----- that is, Hong Feng, the second-in-command of Lord Shi's subordinates, and controlled the case file and the cell to the death, and the oil and salt did not enter, so that his power as Lord Shi was hollowed out, and he was so annoyed.

Lord Shi didn't think about tea and dinner, so he thought about how to hold the power in his own hands, thinking about it, just Liu Xiangye came to ask to see Yin Mingyue, Lord Shi seized the opportunity and asked Liu Xiangye to recommend to Long Live Lord, so that Hong Feng could enter the palace to investigate the fact that Concubine Liang was pregnant in May and the prince was stillborn.

Several princes were stillborn or died in a row, including Lord Shi's daughter, and all kinds of signs were extremely unfavorable to Wei Zhixing's sister, that is, the current queen mother.

As Wei Zhixing's friend, Hong Feng naturally tried his best and had the obligation to find out.

And because Lord Shi is a cautious person, and his daughter is also one of the victims of the "Prince Case", Hong Feng does not have too much suspicion of Lord Shi.

With Hong Feng gone, Master Shi drastically transferred everyone, and inserted important parts into his henchmen, and the plan to seize power was a preliminary victory.

Although Lord Shi has the intention of seizing power, he also knows that Yin Mingyue was originally a female prisoner who was preparing for the emperor's imperial trial, and now although it is not salty or light, who knows when the emperor will be full of food and remember that there is such a peasant girl?

Master Shi has a plan in his heart, he can't save Liu Xiangye's face, but he has to protect Yin Mingyue from being killed.

This kind of locked table and chair can just make Yin Mingyue unable to come out, so naturally he can't stand the tiger chair, whipping and other punishments, and his life is guaranteed to a certain extent, and then send two absolutely trusted henchmen to watch it to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

This henchman, that is, the one who dared to sword Liu Jiayi just now, is none other than the cousin of a newly acquired concubine of Lord Shi, who is half a brother-in-law, who was originally an idle gangster on the streets of Beijing, but now he has attained Taoism, and the chicken dog has ascended to heaven, and he has become the second steward of the jailer of Dali Temple.

Seeing that the former princess and Miss Yan of the Xiangye family also had to be filial to herself, Jiao Lei couldn't be happier.

Liu Jiayi sat down again, pointed to the girl on the painting, and then pointed to the girl opposite, and mocked in her mouth: "The painting seems to be a fairy with a pure heart and few desires, but in fact it is just a lewd-village girl, there is a brother in front of him, and there is a brother Luo in the back, tsk, it seems that there is a young general of Zhenguo, how beautiful it must be to write a book." ”

Liu Jiayi couldn't move Yin Mingyue, her heart was not as uncomfortable as a decline, stroking the same torture tools on the table in front of her, The smile lines on her face became bigger and bigger, as if she was not touching the torture instruments, but the ordinary things she was used to in her daily life, such as guqin, pen and ink, female red and so on.

After a long time, Liu Jiayi let go of the torture instrument, gently took a sip of the tea cup on the table, and smiled at the bright moon a foot away.
