Chapter 279: Woe
The capital city of Great Chu is located on the central plain of the Miluo River, near the south side of the Qiyuan Mountains. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAs the capital of the Great Chu State, the head of the three great powers in the Qingyun Continent, his bearing is extraordinary.
The majestic black city wall stands for 100 meters, and the moat, which is nearly 400 meters wide, is a branch that leads from the Miluo River, loops around the city, and then flows back into the river again. Among them, three tributaries are also divided into the city, and two are divided into left and right to pass through the city, which is the image of the green dragon and white tiger. One goes around the imperial city and becomes an inner moat.
On such a wide moat, there are sixteen approach bridges, and at the end of it is a 50-meter-long suspension bridge. In fact, after the Great Chu Dingdu, no suspension bridge was ever pulled, nor did the sixteen city gates behind the suspension bridge be closed during the day.
Chu Gaozong Xiang Ji once said: "When the suspension bridge rises, the Great Chu dies." If one day the Great Chu State needs to pull up a drawbridge to defend against foreign enemies, the Great Chu is irretrievable. ”
The strength of Great Chu makes the people of Chu proud, so Ban Chang, the general of Zhengnan, also said: "Those who offend me Great Chu Tianwei will be punished even if they are far away." ”
When Gu Wen and his entourage slowly entered from the wide bridge deck of Zhenyuan Gate, despite the strict army, the people who crossed the bridge did not have much of a cowering attitude, but stood aside curiously and pointed out.
Near the gate of Zhenyuan, a red gate tens of meters high inlaid with 49 copper nails the size of a sea bowl is opened. All kinds of defensive equipment on the city are tightly distributed, and rows of forbidden troops wearing dark armor stand solemnly.
As if the city wall made of black iron loomed with various talismans, the light of the runes at the bottom of the moat and the road around the city also flickered. These are all giant city protection formations, and even if a real person comes to commit it, it may not be profitable.
The three royal ace legions: runes, warlocks, and formations are stationed in the capital, and the three satellite cities outside the capital are also stationed in the Gyeonggi Sanwei. And there are at least five real people gathering places in the city, hiding hundreds of real people.
Gu Wen looked at the deep city gate, although he had expected to go to Beijing this time, he was also forced to do so.
Since the extermination of the corpse demon clan, despite the royal family's deliberate cover-up, Gu Wen's generosity has shocked all those in the know.
Although the corpse demon is considered an alien enemy, eradicating a ten-billion-level race in one fell swoop, such a desperate plan to kill has never appeared in history.
As for Gu Wen's upheaval in the western Gobi, which changed the political system and historical trend of the western region, it is not so surprising in comparison.
What's worse is that Gu Wen is an uncontrolled factor. As a celebrity of the Chu State and a recipient of the Imperial Medal of Honor, he did not have the idea of serving the imperial court, but wanted to be an advisor who could serve any force.
It's like a nuclear bomb that you rent out at will, as long as you're willing to pay the price.
This is simply an unacceptable thing for the State of Chu and the Emperor of Chu, Xiang Yan.
Xiang Yan even once wanted to marry her baby daughter Xiang Mingyue to Gu Wen, so that Gu Wen was firmly tied to the royal family's chariot, anyway, Xiang Mingyue at least had no ill feelings towards Gu Wen.
Unexpectedly, Gu Wen suddenly found a sloppy cook for himself as a wife in Hengyang City, so he still got on the bus first and then bought a ticket, and then sent Fengzi to get married.
After getting the news, Xiang Yan couldn't help but sigh: "Young man, the trouser belt is too loose." Gu Wen is so attentive, it is right not to marry Mingyue to him. From then on, the idea of taking a son-in-law was abandoned.
It's just that Gu Wen still has to be in the palm of his hand.
Although judging from the inaccurate news of the military command, Gu Wen seems to have the ability to burst out of combat power above the intermediate real person in a short period of time. But after all, Gu Wen's wife, mother, and four elders are just ordinary people, as long as they are mastered, Gu Wen will not dare to make trouble casually.
Even Xiao Ying, who was a little unclear with Gu Wen in Linhai City, and the Wenying consulting company she opened in Gu Wen's name, Xiang Yan also ordered someone to relocate them all to the capital.
With the handle in hand, and then making Gu Wenci the royal advisor, it can be regarded as a relatively safe way to do so without Gu Wen showing obvious opposites.
Therefore, Xiang Yan sent three people with great fanfare, and made an exception to welcome Gu Wen's family into Beijing with the courtesy of a prince, on the one hand, to show courtesy, and on the other hand, to draw a clear camp, so that other forces would not be able to attack directly.
Regarding Xiang Yan's plan, Gu Wen actually knew it. But the situation is like this, unless Gu Wen wants to leave his homeland forever, wander outside, and then find a way to pick up the whole family, he can only accept the "kindness" of the Chu Emperor.
Sometimes, the path is not chosen by oneself. Since there is no choice, there is no need to complain in your heart. Gu Wen smiled slightly, shook his green shirt, and prepared to ride his horse into the city.
At this moment, the drums at the city gate sounded in unison, and a large wave of people and horses poured out from the city gate hole, all of them in fresh clothes and angry horses. Several Jian slaves held aloft vermilion lacquer official signs, on which were written the words "Pingxi Wangfu" and "Chai". The gates of the city were blocked in an instant.
Gu Wen heard that this wave of people has royal guards, military commanders and hundreds of Gyeonggi three guards, and it is not a good stubble at first glance.
And this wave of people who came out of the city gate cave was Chai Bufu, the second son of Chai Damu, the king of Pingxi, one of the heads of the Xungui family.
The Chai family itself is a famous family with a long heritage, with a solid net worth and many talents. The first Pingxi king Chai retired from the unification army and took the nine western cities, so he was awarded the hereditary title of king, which made the Chai family enter the ranks of the top wealthy families in Great Chu and had a prominent position in the noble system.
Although Chai Bufu is only the second son and cannot inherit the throne, he is deeply doted on by the prince and his mother and his wife, and has a lot of say in the family, and acts unscrupulously, anyway, he can settle down.
Today, Chai Bufu didn't know who suggested it, and took a group of fox friends and dog friends to go to Qiyuan Mountain to hunt snow foxes, but he "coincidentally" collided with Gu Wen and his party.
"Pingxi Wangfu is traveling, and the idle people are avoided!" several healthy servants shouted loudly, holding signs and squeezing towards Gu Wen's team.
The Gyeonggi Sanwei has an imperial order, so it is naturally impossible to avoid it. The warriors hurriedly formed a formation on the spot and forcibly blocked the servants of the Pingxi Palace. But under the capital, there are many constraints, but you can't just pull out the knife and cut it.
Several of the healthy servants were blocked back, and they were all in pain when they hit the warrior's armor, and they shouted one after another: "It's the other way around, even our people from the Pingxi Royal Mansion dare to fight." This time you're dead. ”
As he spoke, he held up the official badge and slapped it at the soldiers of the Gyeonggi Sanwei.
The warriors of the Gyeonggi Sanwei stood tall as a mountain, allowing long wooden signs to beat on their armor with a clanging sound. The servants of Pingxi Wangfu worked in vain, but discounted the official card twice.
A healthy servant shouted: "What a bold man, he dares to damage the official card of our Pingxi Mansion and break the face of our Pingxi Palace." It's really an ambitious leopard guts. It will depend on how you die. The other servant hurriedly ran to find Chai Bufu to complain.
Chai Bufu was riding a golden-silk scaled beast today, a white fox with a sassy body, and was talking and laughing with a young girl beside him.
The girl has a convex figure and a gorgeous appearance, but she was an assistant singer of the ancient and modern group back then.
At that time, Dou Shiyi, the lead singer of the ancient and modern group, had an amazing background, and often competed with Gao Yuan Jiali for the status of the first female artist group. In the combination, Dou Shiyi is naturally the leader, and although the rest of the women are also quite good, they can only be a foil.
Since Dou Shiyi rumored to have fallen in love with a poor scholar last year, fell out with his family and left the orchestra, the ancient and modern combination immediately fell from one of the top respected positions to the second-rate level.
This woman named Deng Bingxin, after Dou Shiyi left, was one of the pillars of the orchestra. It's a pity that the background of talent is too far apart, and it can only be maneuvered between a group of wealthy young people in the capital.
Chai Bufu has some thoughts about Deng Bingxin, and half of the fox hunting in the city this time is for the idea of beating Deng Bingxin.
The two men were in the back, not noticing that the front was blocked. The servant ran and cried, saying that a group of rude soldiers had blocked the way and broken the signboard of the Pingxi Palace.
Deng Bingxin covered his red lips with his hands and looked at Chai Bufu with wide eyes. Chai Bufu immediately felt that his dignity had been seriously questioned, and he was immediately furious:
"What kind of person is so bold, not to say anything about arguing with Young Master Ben, and daring to break the signboard of my Pingxi Palace?
A white fat friend next to him said peacefully: "That's it, this field must be recovered." It's okay if we don't have face. Young Master Chai's family is noble, how can he swallow this breath?"
Chai Bufu was "encouraged", and he was even more aggressive, and rushed to the front of the team, and saw the opposite team at a glance, but he gasped, feeling a little bad.
The team on the opposite side was about three or four hundred people, but it was extremely elite. The arch guard of the 300 Gyeonggi Sanwei shows that the person who came has a respected status. Several servants on foot were blocked by the Gyeonggi Three Guards, but they didn't see that among the Gyeonggi Three Guards, there was a small group of yellow-clothed men, who were the Inner House Guards.
And some of the people who wandered around the periphery of the team, although they were dressed differently, Chai Bufu found that most of these people were military commanders according to their application performance.
"What the hell is such a big show? Can I handle it? Don't hit the iron plate. Chai Bufu hesitated. (To be continued.) )
