Chapter 277: Quartet Hall

At this time, the prosperity of the capital city of Xuyang is not as good as that of Hangzhou, because before moving the capital to Xuyang, Hangzhou City was also the capital, but Xuyang's atmosphere is still majestic, the streets are spacious and the houses are tall, and the high-ranking officials and dignitaries will naturally be prosperous, as for whether it is a trade artery, it doesn't matter. Ye Wushuang enjoyed the different street scenes with great interest, and slowly looked for his goal.

The fastest and most direct place to get the news is the restaurant tea shop, Ye Wushuang shuttles through it, but what he hears the most is how the national teacher is, and what great achievements the national teacher has made recently, he simply praised him to the sky, as if there was such a person in the entire imperial city, Ye Wushuang was proud when he heard it, and unconsciously walked to a luxurious courtyard.

It must be not easy for a person to have such a courtyard in the capital, and when he looked up, he found that the four big characters on the door plaque "Sifang Hall" turned out to be the "embassy". The so-called "Quartet Hall" contains the meaning of the Quartet to come to the court, that is, I am the center of heaven and earth, and you all have to pay tribute to me, at this time, the Quartet Hall does not have the function of an embassy, although there are foreign envoys stationed but do not enjoy any equal treatment, the task of sending tribute is more, and there are often special animals, plants, beauties and strange performances.

Ye Wushuang hesitated for a moment whether to go in, and suddenly heard someone inside whispering, in recent days, the emperor and his favorite concubine wanted to announce that they would go to the New Year's Hall to perform, as if to pray for a good weather in the coming year, Ye Wushuang thought about a stealth technique and flashed in.

In fact, it is very simple to enter the inner courtyard of the palace with his skills, but since there is a heavenly rule in this world that can sanction masters like Bai Suzhen and Long Tianxiang, then it is the same for others, if the cultivation is high, you can kill the emperor casually, and the world will be in chaos a long time ago. The imperial qi in the palace is not something that anyone can shake, if there is no legitimate reason, it is impossible for a monk to approach the emperor at will, and if he kills the emperor, there will definitely be a heavenly punishment, just like the golden light of merit, there is no need to try, so if Ye Wushuang wants to approach the emperor as quickly as possible, he can only think of some special methods, which must be fast and safe, and cannot let the emperor and the people around him notice the abnormality.

Why did he have to approach the emperor? because according to the calculation of time, the dragon girl at this time had already begun to implement her own plan, and her plan was to be the emperor's woman, stabilize her position, and even listen to the government, and the final goal was to use her power to kill Fahai!

She also knows how powerful Tiantiao is, and she herself suffers from it, so she doesn't dare to act recklessly, and she uses the means of ordinary women, but her conditions are good, and she can often make some small wrist spells, which is much more convenient than ordinary draft women, even so, it took her several years of hard work to achieve her goal, and then she really almost dominated national affairs!

She doesn't have the ability to kill Fahai, even if she is a big level higher than him, Fahai is not an ordinary monk, people are covered by a great god, otherwise it is impossible to defeat them with immortal treasures, the level of that treasure can only be used by immortals, she rested the idea of revenge with her own hands, so she had to find another way, no matter how big Fahai's reputation is, it can't be the emperor, no matter how big the ability is, it's not as big as thousands of troops, so it's the best way to use the emperor to deal with him, and since then, the dragon girl Long Tianxiang has been in the palace for several years.

Long Tianxiang disappeared like this, and no one could find her anymore, until Xu Shilin got the martial champion to see her, and many stories happened later, but Ye Wushuang would not let the next thing happen, because he came, Long Tianxiang had to go with him! If this storyline can't be changed, then the quest will be over, and there will be no news of Luan Qingqing if the quest is completed!

It is very easy to mix in the Sifang Hall with Ye Wushuang's skills, there are already many idle people here, and he easily found an errand in the performance team, but it was just a miscellaneous job. At noon three days later, he followed the performance team of the Sifang Hall to the prayer hall in front of the Wanshou Palace, here is a huge square, at this time the surrounding has not been sealed by the palace wall, anyone can come, the emperor will soon come to pray for the heavens, and let the people watch the ceremony, meaning to have fun with the people, and then return to the palace to feast the ministers, and here is to set off fireworks at night, and will also distribute candy and snacks and other things for free, so it is already crowded with people when it is not auspicious.

Fortunately, Ye Wushuang followed the performance team, otherwise it was really difficult to mix in, even such a strict inventory also delayed a little half an hour, and when they stood in front of the five-colored soil in the center of the square, Emperor Zhao Longjie had already arrived, this Zhao Longjie was about fifty years old, his face was square and dignified, his skin was fair, and he was very well maintained, and the shorter phoenix next to Long Yuan sat on the beautiful and dignified Xiangfei Long Tianxiang! Although there was a layer of light gauze curtains, he could vaguely distinguish his appearance.

This Xiangfei looks exactly the same as what Xiaoqing showed to Ye Wushuang, but without the double horns on her head and the golden scales on her eyebrows, she has lost that delicate taste, and the rest is only beautiful, but she blends beauty and dignity in one place, sits upright, does not pretend to anything, and has a feeling of looking down on all beings. Originally, this kind of major sacrificial activity should at least bring a palace maiden, and the concubine is not qualified to show up, but today she made an exception, which shows Zhao Longjie's favor for her.

Ye Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief, he finally didn't waste his efforts in the past few days, and finally found you! But how to get close to it below is another problem, his status is too low, similar to ordinary people, how can he have the opportunity to get close to Feng Yuan, do you have to rely on some special performances to attract people?

After the ceremonial official finished singing, Zhao Longjie came to the altar alone and climbed the steps, walked to the five-colored soil, took out the prepared five-colored brocade bag, sprinkled the five-colored divine soil from the five directions, and then recited the sacrificial text according to the ceremony.

After reciting it for a while, he returned to the dragon chariot and sat down, and beckoned Concubine Xiang to sit on his dragon chariot, and Concubine Xiang walked on the dragon chariot according to the etiquette and sat down at his feet, peeling some fruit and sharing it with the emperor.

Then the ceremonial officer sang the salute, and then it was the turn of a scholar to recite his newly written praise to the heavens, and this thought was so long that it was sprinkled with ten thousand words! Everyone was drowsy and yawned for a long time. It was easy to get through this section and finally started the grand performance, first of all, the prayer dance arranged by the Ministry of Rites, although the number of people was not large, there were only more than 100 people, but they were all dressed in brocade with wide sleeves and very luxurious, and the dance posture was elegant and neat, everyone watched it with bated breath and was very focused.

After the official performance, there is a folk dance, the most exciting is the lion dance, which is lively and festive, the applause of the surrounding people is very warm, and the crowd also has a tendency to move forward, but fortunately, the guards of the Imperial City Division have tried their best to block it, so there is no chaos.

When the foreign envoys gave their gifts, it was time for the performance of the Sifang Guild, Ye Wushuang grabbed a huge backdrop and trotted forward with the actors, and when he arrived at the place, he worked with others to put several backdrops together, and then squatted behind the backdrop and waited for the performance to end.

Just when the performance of the Quartet Hall had just begun, Ye Wushuang heard a completely different sound in the chaotic voices, it was the sound of the bowstring ringing, and when he turned back to find the source of the sound, the bowstring sound of "boom boom" sounded almost at the same time, and hundreds of cold and shining arrows shot at Zhao Longjie who was laughing with Concubine Xiang!

Someone actually assassinated the emperor under the watchful eye of everyone! It was so bold that Ye Wushuang couldn't remember who had rebelled in the legend of the White Snake, as if the emperor had not been assassinated? But now it's a matter of fact, the fact is the fact, maybe his own arrival changed the process, or maybe there was someone else who came with a "pig's foot halo", it doesn't matter who comes, but if you dare to block your own footsteps, you must have the consciousness of being broken into thousands of pieces by yourself, even if you are from the earth!

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this assassination is not necessarily a bad thing for you, at least you have a better chance to get close to the emperor and Concubine Xiang. At this time, he had already stood up and was about to save the emperor, but suddenly his feet stagnated slightly, and the front of the dragon chariot seemed to be empty and the defense was weak, but when the sharp arrows fell, dozens of imperial guards jumped out of nowhere, wielding knives and guns to block the arrows, and the four walls of the dragon chariot also raised four iron plates to block the sharp arrows, leaving only a large lap of the slap to look out!

At this time, there was a great chaos around, the people cried and shouted and fled in all directions, fortunately the terrain here is spacious, you can run anywhere, and those assassins intend to besiege the emperor, they have little interest in the people, otherwise there will be many people who die, even in this way, the Sansi Yamen who maintained order also died a lot of people, and many ordinary people also suffered from the disaster of pond fish.

The arrows were shot down from nearby restaurants or high walls, about 100 steps close, 200 steps away, ordinary people could not shoot such a distance, even if they were superior in strength, there was no suitable bow and crossbow, it seemed that these assassins had a very thick background. The scene was in a mess, and Ye Wushuang couldn't save people even if he wanted to, and at this time he realized that manpower was sometimes exhausted, and he couldn't do anything if he cultivated high.
