Chapter 297: The Great Dragon Spits Pearls, Heaven and Earth
Above the main hall, there was a sound of needles falling.
Zhongshu Province Pingzhang political affairs Tang Shi, after Sun Xiji passed away, he belongs to the oldest official in the temple of Dachu, this old man has been in the previous farce to choose to stand by, Huaiyin Tang is not one of the top ten wealthy lords in the Spring and Autumn Period, the rise in the founding of the Great Chu, the peak of the Great Chu heyday, the decline in the last years of the Great Chu, it can be said that the Huaiyin Tang family is really with the Great Chu Jiang family of wealth and suffering, after the fall of the Great Chu, no one in the Tang family entered the Liyang officialdom, after the restoration of Western Chu, the Tang family is one of the first families to respond to Cao Changqingγ Although Tang Shi and Sun Xiji's political disagreement is well known to passers-by, it belongs to the real gentleman's dispute, each has its own party, and there is no dumping. Tang Shi was probably the first official in the court to notice that Sun Xiji's lights were about to go out, at that time, Tang Shi did not have the slightest happiness, but seemed to have a bad neighbor who had quarreled all his life but had never fought, and suddenly moved away one day, but was a little lonely.
The old man didn't look at His Majesty the Emperor, stared at the legendary young vassal king, and asked calmly: "Didn't the King of Beiliang leave my Great Chu Capital yesterday?
Without waiting for Xu Fengnian to answer, the old man raised his arm and pointed at his head with a jade wat and said with a smile: "If that's the case, you might as well start with my Tang Master." Da Chu Zhongshu Province Pingzhang political affairs, from a product, I guess my head still has some weight. β
Soon a martial artist strode out, and it was the burly man who said "dare to ask where Cao Changqing is" before, and laughed loudly: "Everyone in the world says that the king of Beiliang is the best in martial arts, so the great Chu generals will start with me Zhao Yunhao! I hope that the king of Beiliang will not dislike me, the general of the Great Chu Zhennan, and my official body is not prominent enough!"
Great Chu can die in the country, but he can die in the Liyang army. Only he can't die at the hands of the Xu family anymore!
Xu Fengnian's hand pressed on Jiang Ni's head slightly weighted, signaling that she didn't speak out loud, glanced at Yiwen and Wuwu in front and back, and then raised his gaze to look further away, and said with a smile: "Okay, Master Tang, Zhao Yunhao, you two kings have written it down." Wait a while, there are too few of them, and if this king wants to kill, he will kill them together, so who else is willing to give up his head now and make that hospitality gift? Gu Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Li Changji, a scholar of Hanlin, Cheng Wenyu, a regular attendant of the Right Scattered Cavalry of the Ministry of Menxia, and Su Yang, a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, why didn't you stand up? Or did you say that you had found a way and were reluctant to die? If this king is not mistaken, the families you belong to were all martyred in the early years after the Battle of Xileibi. β
Among the four, only the elderly Gu Ying walked out silently and walked to Tang Shi's side. The other three did not move, especially Cheng Wenyu and Li Changji, the two great writers of the world, who were already frightened.
With the resolute death of Gu Laoshangshu, there were gradually civil and military officials from the left and right trains to the middle position, and the year of establishment, the year of not being confused, the year of ear shun, and the year of ancient rarity.
In the main hall, more than 50 dignitaries and dignitaries who are praised by the common people as the center, the pillars of the country of Dachu, and in the end, half of them chose to be loyal ministers who are sure to die. And the other half is naturally the wall grass outside the wind grass.
Heroic stupidity, clever humility.
At this moment, the distinction is clear.
Jiang Ni turned his head and no longer let him rest his hand on his head.
Xu Fengnian didn't bother with her, and he didn't seem to have the idea of killing people in the main hall at all, and said with a smile: "I Beiliang Tie rode south to Guangling Road, whether it is difficult to quell the rebellion depends on your attitude." Your Emperor His Majesty is on the front line, and now this one standing next to this king is just a stupid girl who ran away from home, as long as you are willing to take a step back, this king will treat it as if nothing has happened. The Emperor of Western Chu on the Xileibi battlefield can continue to inspire the morale of the army, and you civil and military ministers can continue to guide the country or make a living. If there is one person who is unwilling to return to his original position, then the king of this will really go on a killing spree today, and throw all your heads to Wu Chongxuan or Xu Gong. As for believe it or not, whatever it is, I will give you a stick of incense to weigh the pros and cons, no, only half a stick of incense. β
When it came to a stick of incense, Xu Fengnian intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the long imperial road outside the main hall, and for some reason changed his mouth to a half-burnt incense.
Xu Fengnian pressed the thumb of the knife and slowly pushed the knife out of the sheath by more than an inch, and the small piece of light was particularly dazzling.
Xu Fengnian continued: "It doesn't matter whether Da Chu has Jiang Ni or not, anyway, as long as there is a Jiang Xi who is 'the Son of Heaven guarding the country' on the Western Front, it is enough. Isn't that right?"
Xu Fengnian looked at Li Changji, the Hanlin scholar who had no jade wat in his hands, and said in an accentuated tone, "Scholar Li, right?!"
Li Changji, who no longer had the previous style, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes! β
Above the main hall, some courtiers who did not get out of the train began to look at their colleagues, some people began to persuade their friends or relatives softly, and even began to secretly trot over, trying to pull back the officials standing in the center of the main hall.
At the same time, some turned a blind eye, some turned a deaf ear, some simply reprimanded, and only a handful of officials returned to their positions on both sides with shameful faces.
Seeing this scene, Xu Fengnian, who looked as usual, actually had mixed feelings.
The former Great Chu, that is, the backbone of the Central Plains!
Therefore, the Great Chu died in the country, that is, the Central Plains sank.
It is conceivable how tragic the heart-wrenching Battle of Xileibi was back then.
When someone found that Xu Fengnian's face became more and more solemn, and finally someone collapsed, Su Yang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who had already secretly colluded with the Liyang military, suddenly shuddered, suddenly opened up, and walked quickly to the position behind Tang Shi, who was only in Pingzhang Political Affairs, and smiled flatteringly at Xu Fengnian: "Lord, I am Su Yang of the Western Chu Rite Department, I don't know when the prince's border pass iron cavalry will be able to reach the outside of this Western Chu capital?"
Rather than being dragged by a group of fools to accompany the funeral, he Su Yang might as well choose the lesser of two evils, although he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around in the future, it is far worse than directly catching up with the Liyang general, but it is better than not seeing the sun outside the hall immediately.
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites of Da Chu has a mouthful of "West Chu".
Xu Fengnian sighed: "It seems that Su Shilang's official position is not too high, but he is the smartest person in this big house." It's a pity to be only a squire, if this king is Emperor Liyang, how can he let Master Su be a secretary of the Ministry of Rites who is in charge of the cultural context of the imperial court. β
Su Yang, who was sweating all over his head, was able to be a waiter, after all, he was not really stupid enough to be hopeless, how could he not hear the ridicule in the words of the young vassal king, and said stupidly: "The prince has won the award, the award." β
Xu Fengnian put aside his thumb, and the cold knife that was cut off from the sheath quickly returned to the sheath.
Su Yang was suddenly overjoyed.
Xu Fengnian turned his head to stare at Jiang Ni, and joked softly: "I didn't have to ask you to leave the capital immediately yesterday, because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to think about it for a while, and your head wouldn't be able to twist it, today is different, if you haven't figured it out, then I have to knock you out and carry it away." β
She blinked, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
Xu Fengnian didn't turn his head, stretched out his hand and casually pointed at those civil and military officials, "There are Tang Master Gu Ying, Zhao Yunhao, these people, which means that your trip to Western Chu is not in vain." But there are also Su Yang, Li Changji, Cheng Wenyu, and these people, which shows that you have no meaning of staying in Xichu and waiting for death. You are just a stupid girl, don't be a female emperor for a few days and really think of yourself as an emperor, the subjects of Great Chu are in today's Western Chu, just like I told you yesterday, they are not without a choice, the vast majority of people are not mortal people, and now their situation is that they wish the dead can die, and may the living live. So now you tell me, when are you going to come with me?"
She subconsciously wants to turn around, and when she encounters something, she hides first anyway!
As a result, he stretched out his hands and pressed her shoulders, and laughed angrily: "Still hiding?!"
Xu Fengnian stared at her, and suddenly lowered his voice and whispered: "This time it's really not to scare you, if you don't leave, I will be in trouble, and it's not small." β
Her face changed drastically, and she said wait a minute, and then she ran to the side door of the main hall, but she suddenly turned her head and smiled brightly at him.
Two small dimples.
Almost at the same time, Xu Fengnian waved his sleeves, and all the officials in the hall only felt the strong wind blowing on their faces, and they all retreated and covered their faces with their sleeves.
Therefore, they will not be able to witness the moving scenery that captivates the country and the city.
Xu Fengnian said to the back figure who ran away with the dragon robe in both hands: "If it's just a pawn crossing the river, it doesn't matter if you take it or not, I can take it with me." β
She didn't turn her head, and simply put down two words neatly, "copper coins!"
Xu Fengnian couldn't cry or laugh, and reminded: "I'll wait for you at the gate of the imperial city." In addition to copper coins, don't forget to bring back the Daliang Dragon Sparrow by the way, maybe you can use it. β
After saying this, Xu Fengnian swept out of the main hall in one step and stopped directly outside the gate of the imperial city.
The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed, trying to catch up with His Majesty the Emperor.
If he's unlucky, if there's going to be a life-or-death confrontation, he'll be killed by that opponent before she rushes to his side.
Its danger may be no less than when he faced the human cat Han Shengxuan.
The person who blocked the royal road was the calm of the city last night, which was quite happy with each other.
After Hong Xixiang and Xie Guanying gave up or lost their qualifications one after another, she invisibly became the most qualified human figure to do the right thing for heaven today.
Last night, the only remaining Qi Practitioner Grandmaster in the world, the so-called "supper" she said lightly was Xi Chu's luck!
Originally, the only amount of qi left in the Western Chu Capital City could still "keep out" a martial arts master who had reached the realm of land immortals, but in fact, it could only block one person.
The reason why Xu Fengnian was able to enter the palace all the way from the south gate of the capital, as the emperor Jiang Ni, who is the lord of the Qi of Western Chu, her existence is very important, to be precise, it is Jiang Ni's indecision in his own heart that created Xu Fengnian's "leisurely stroll", but it can be said that it is a person who is hostile to Jiang Xi in Western Chu, even if it is Tuoba Bodhisattva or Deng Tai'a, then it is not difficult for them to enter the imperial city, and it can be done by killing two city defenders like Xu Fengnian, but if you go to face Jiang Ni's 100,000 swords in the lake, it is most likely that Jiang Ni has a greater chance of winning. This kind of wonderful and indescribable benefit of heaven and time will not know its mystery if it does not enter the heavens.
Xu Fengnian originally felt that no matter how bad his luck was, he would not let Tantai calm and tear his face with himself now.
But.
Xu Fengnian looked up at the sky, and then at the world in the distance.
The eyes are in a trance.
In an instant, the heavens and the earth turned upside down.
It is not an immortal, but a real countless heavenly beings in the human world.
Xu Fengnian closed his eyes and exhaled softly.
One step out, is the separation of yin and yang, the difference between heaven and earth. Xu Fengnian's figure disappeared out of thin air as if walking into a curtain of water.
And above that Tai Chi hall, the atmosphere is solemn.
When the young vassal king left, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty were a little stunned for a while, first the eunuch with the palm print instructed by His Majesty the Emperor asked people to carefully move Sun Xiji's body out, and in the end, only Tang Shi, the political affairs of Pingzhang, followed silently, as if carrying a coffin for someone. The rest of the ministers stayed in the hall and did not move, Li Changji and Cheng Wenyu invariably scolded the Beiliang barbarian in a low voice, and unconsciously became the focus of attention of the Ministry of Rites Su Yang was calm, even if the general Zhao Yunhao angrily reprimanded him for having no Chu Chen's backbone, Su Yang just sneered, Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province have no leader, and Cao Changqing, who is in charge of the six departments, is nowhere to be found, which makes Gu Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, suddenly become the heaviest official in the main hall, Gu Ying looked at the chaotic scene, although his heart was like a mess, this Great Chu Tianguan still said in a deep voice: "Today's matter, please keep your mouth shut after retiring from the court, and never talk about Your Majesty's departure from Beijing, remember, Your Majesty is still on the front line of the Xileibi battlefield, Your Majesty is driving a personal expedition for my Great Chu, if someone can't control his mouth, this official will definitely do his best, not hesitating to risk the scolding of the party and fighting against the other, but also severely punished!
Zhao Yunhao, the general of Zhennan who belonged to a different camp from Gu Ying's faction, said gloomily: "This time, I would like to be a lackey of Lord Gu!"
Hubu Shangshu is a good old man in his old age, and he was once a recognized master of pounding paste in the previous dynasty of the Great Chu, and this time he also made a firm statement for the first time: "Everyone, listen to me, we should be in the same boat in times of crisis, but we should not do the act of scuttling the boat by mistake and mistakenly." Da Chu is terminally ill, and my generation is cautious in words and deeds. β
Gu Ying suddenly stared at Su Yang, "What does Su Shilang think?"
Su Yang smiled and said: "If someone else says this kind of thing, I, Su Yang, will forget it, but since it is Gu Shangshu, it is different." β
The implication is that I, Su Yang, am about to go ashore and find the next home, ordinary people prevent me from fishing in troubled waters, and I Su Yang Bird does not bird him, but since it is you, the official who is also with the Liyang Imperial Court, then let's all take it easy, since everyone is going to sell themselves to the Liyang Zhao family, don't commit suicide now, lest the price of jade on both sides become the price of cabbage, wouldn't it be cheap for nothing. Gu Yang nodded, Su Yang keenly captured the disdain in the eyes of Lord Shangshu, and Lord Shilang sneered in his heart, after all, you and I are both Qinglou women who sell their bodies, your Gu family is just a higher price, and I, Su Yang, am just a few taels less literati than you in the main hall today, but you Lord Gu are not ashamed to smile in fifty steps and take a hundred steps?
The only general in the Western Chu temple who is currently in the capital, the hussar general Chen Kunshan, said in a deep voice: "From now on, the city is under martial law, and only enter the city and not leave the city!"
This sentence was only a slight surprise, but the next sentence made some people's faces turn pale, "If the forbidden army and spies in my capital find out that someone has a carrier pigeon flying, then it will be punished for treason!"
Outside the temple.
A palace eunuch in a python robe carried a corpse wrapped in silk forging on his back and walked quickly to the carriage outside the palace.
The head of the Tang family in Huaiyin, the head of the Tang family in Huaiyin, the political affairs of Da Chu, Tang Shi followed behind, and said in a sad voice: "Sun Xiji, everyone in the world says that people must go to a high place, why did you come to this temple from Liyang Temple." β
Old Tang burst into tears, suddenly sped up a few steps, and shouted to the eunuch, "I'll carry it!"
The python-robed eunuch looked at the old man with a surprised face, and Tang Shi smiled sadly: "The old man carries the dead, why not be slower?"
Tang Shi picked up Sun Xiji on his back and walked forward slowly.
In the spring breeze in the city, a former Great Chu merry man named Sun Xiji was on the back of an old man named Tang Shi, silently, and the fallen leaves returned to his roots.
ββββ
The court meeting slowly dispersed, and above everyone's heads, a bright sword light rose from the palace and landed outside the gate of the imperial city.
Jiang Ni, who was stepping on the sword, looked around blankly, why couldn't he suddenly find him? And he couldn't feel any qi.
She tried her best to calm down, closed her eyes, and the sword of the lake instantly swept towards the four directions of the capital.
One hundred thousand flying swords are just like a huge lotus flower blooming in Guangling Road.
Jiang Ni began to try to communicate with heaven and earth with the sword intent of the world, so as to determine Xu Fengnian's approximate whereabouts.
She silently thought in her heart, she must wait for me.
She suddenly opened her eyes, shocked, confused, frightened, frightened.
Jian Xin was self-explanatory, telling her that Xu Fengnian was actually nearby.
She began to harness thousands of flying swords back to the imperial city.
Then she noticed that there were several swords in the way of Kenshin, as if she was taking a detour.
She struck away with her sword, hovering in the air, her head raised.
If there is a Qi Practitioner Grandmaster with such great powers as Tranquility watching from the sidelines, you will be able to find that there is a huge white dragon dominating the capital, spitting dragon balls in its mouth.
And that dragon ball is about to fall apart.
