Chapter 37 The Red Sun
Hong Yun moved a chair and sat down at Hong Chengqi's suggestion and began to tell the story: "That day, I happened to be in Rixuan City, and I handed over the letter I got from Qingsong to An Tong according to the plan. Then I returned to the ancestral land to worship, in the second half of the night the barbarians of Montenegro dug the embankment of the Luojiang River, and the river water that had been stored for more than half a year flooded the entire city in an instant, and the city of Xuancheng fell. ”
Hong Chengqi frowned slightly, tapped the table with his right index finger rhythmically, and asked with burning eyes: "The construction of the embankment and storage of the Luojiang River can not be completed overnight, and it must be implemented with the cooperation of the Fairness Party and Montenegro,"
"It's exactly what my uncle said!" Hong Yun nodded in agreement, and then said with some uncertainty: "It's just that through a few days of investigation by the little nephew, it seems that the internal part of the Fair Council is not monolithic, but the sword that the prince entrusted An Tong to find is in the hands of a middle-level leader of the Fair Society. ”
"The prince likes to be curious, skilled, indulgent, lustful, dogs and horses, just a sword, not enough to worry about!" Hong Chengqi waved his hand disapplausively: "What about the book saint picture scroll? ”
Hong Yun adjusted his sitting posture and replied: "The picture scroll was really found by the Inner Palace!"
As soon as the words fell, he caught a glimpse of Hong Chengqi's ugly face and hurriedly continued: "The little nephew then let out the news that there were earth-shattering treasures and exercise cheats hidden in the Shusheng Picture Scroll, and revealed the news to the Fair Society. Hong Yun said this, with a look on his face.
"And then?"
"Later, the Fair Society and the Inner Mansion Secret Agents fought several times for the picture scroll, and in the end, only one secret agent named Wuya escaped from the Inner Palace, and the Book Saint Picture Scroll fell into his hands!"
Hong Chengqi pondered for a moment, and said in a resolute tone: "You immediately go to the inner mansion to access the endless archives, and the scroll of the book saint cannot be lost!"
"Obey!" Hong Yun immediately got up when he heard this, bowed to Hong Chengqi, and then turned around decisively and left.
"Xiao Yun, you did a good job this time!" A faint approving voice came from behind him, Hong Yun's body trembled uncontrollably when he heard this, and the next second he walked out of the door without looking back, and his steps were more brisk and firm.
Hearing the footsteps fading away, Hong Chengqi returned to his desk, his eyes resting on the book he was reading before, which had been read countless times by the former dynasty Legalist "The Theory of the Annihilation of the Country".
Hong Chengqi sighed slightly, he knew very well in his heart that the so-called earth-shattering treasures and exercise secrets in the Shusheng Picture Scroll were all imaginary things, and they were completely made up by the descendants who only knew the skin, and what was really hidden in the Shusheng Picture Scroll was the secret of Longxing.
Dongfang Yikong, the former scholar of the dynasty, was one of the several rebel leaders who participated in the establishment of the Great Liang Dynasty, Dongfang Yikong's martial arts were sparse and ordinary, and he was not good at battle array strategy, and he was able to become the leader of the rebel army who overthrew the ruler at that time by virtue of his ability to divinate feng shui and stargazing governors. After the establishment of the Liang Dynasty, the leader of the rebel army naturally became the new master of the world, but Dongfang Yikong refused to return to his hometown as if he had seen through the world.
Most of the calligraphy works of Dongfang Yikong have been lost and destroyed in the more than 500 years of Liang Dynasty inheritance, and this calligraphy scroll "Red Sun Picture of Rivers and Mountains", which has been contested by many forces, is one of the few surviving works. Dongfang Yikong can be said to be the main research object of Hong Chengqi in recent years, he collected a large number of historical materials about Dongfang Yikong and came to a conclusion - the establishment of the Liang Dynasty and Dongfang Yikong are inevitably related!
Throughout the founding of the Liang Dynasty, the road to the founding of the country can be summed up in eight words - after hardships, evil turns into good fortune. Whether it was in the early stage of the development of the rebel army or in the later stage of the decisive battle with the rulers of the time, the rebel army suffered many severe tests, even the test of life and death, but the results were all good without exception.
The historical depictions of these key events are all colorful, focusing on the wise decisions or brave battles of the leaders of the rebel army at that time, and deliberately downplaying the influence of other objective factors. The history books describe it like this, but Hong Chengqi is full of doubts, the enemy's main general died violently before the battle, and the sudden fire attack on the enemy army is enough to turn the tide of the war in his opinion, and there is a figure hidden behind some strange events, that is, the East is empty.
However, the description of Dongfang Yikong's participation in these events in the history books is vague, and Hong Chengqi finally found the answer in the autobiography of a meritorious general of the founding of the Great Liang Dynasty.
The general's autobiography described in detail the scene that happened at that time, that is, in the early stage of the development of the rebel army, he accidentally fell into the ten-sided ambush plan to encircle and suppress the army, and in the face of hundreds of times the enemy, almost all the soldiers of the rebel army thought that this time there was absolutely no life, and Dongfang Yikong stood up.
At that time, the book described it as follows: all the leaders were silent, and the military advisors were also lamenting the bad luck, but Mr. Dongfang smiled indifferently and only led two boys to the stage. In a few days, lightning and thunder roared, the earth fire was prosperous, the fire dragon swept the enemy's military array, and the rest did not survive one out of ten, so there was this great victory.
Every time he reads this, Hong Chengqi's heart can't help but surge, and he can't wait to see the true face of Mr. Dongfang on the spot. He boldly judged from the various behaviors of Dongfang Yikong that he must be the one who knows the heavenly machine and protects the true dragon, and from the establishment of the Liang Dynasty, many meritorious military generals and ministers must not die well, only its transcendence can be seen.
As for this hand-me-down "Red Sun Map of Rivers and Mountains", it was painted by Dongfang Yikong when he went to Ningdu Mansion with the army. Mountains, rivers, trees, and the red sun are four very simple common scenes on the surface, but in fact, only he knows what Dongfang Yiuan wants to express.
Ningdu Mansion is relatively barren, with many mountains and rivers, and the scenery is really not magnificent and beautiful, but it is favored by the East and does not hesitate to paint it alone, which must have a mystery. Hong Chengqi was a little excited, he felt as if he had touched the true meaning that Dongfang Yikong wanted to express, of course, everything still needs to find the Shusheng Picture Scroll before talking about anything else.
The silver medal spy of the Inner Mansion is boundless, Hong Chengqi picked up the brush and crossed the name of the boundless.
The next day, Hong Chengqi had just gotten up in the morning and had breakfast, when an attendant presented the boundless information that Hong Yun had collected from the archives of the inner government overnight to the desk, and in addition, there was also a plan made by Hong Yun to arrest Wuyan.
The content of the arrest plan is simple and clear, Wu Ya is a person from Kyoto Dragon City, his family has been breeding and doing business in Dragon City for more than five generations, his family is wealthy, his parents are not only alive but also have a biological sister, and there are more than 100 slaves in the family, which is a small reputation in Dragon City.
If it were someone else, they might also consider the social impact of arresting the Wuya family, but Hong Yun was obviously not among them, and Wuhou's signboard alone could suppress many people, so Hong Yun ordered all his men to go to the city overnight to control the Wuya family, and on the other hand, he sent additional people to closely monitor the post house along the way from Rixuan to Dragon City, and if Wuya showed up, he would be discovered as soon as possible.
After reading Hong Yun's letter, Hong Chengqi was quite satisfied with his handling method, and the huge Wuhou Mansion was running rapidly according to Hong Chengqi's instructions, and even the party disputes that had intensified in recent days were temporarily put aside.
