Chapter 4 The East Window Incident
Barbarian Yuan Ji 86 March Jin Clan Baisha City
'Baisha City', it is late at night at this moment, but I see that the lights in the city are bright, the traffic is busy, and the trade road post people are endless, and in the early spring, there is still a slight chill. But see the city is more jubilant and warm, the sound of selling, chasing and playing, the sound of pedestrians, cars and horses, the sound of flower streets and alleys of demons one after another, it can really be said that it is not lively!
This city is the imperial city of the Jin clan - Baisha City.
Inside the Emperor's Palace.
On the purple gold sandalwood beam in the dormitory, there is a seven-foot-wide ice silkworm tent hanging, and the dragon nine saliva incense that rises curlingly, swaying slightly on the warm jade ground in Cangnan, rising, and the figures under the white jade seat in the tent are crowded.
"Your Majesty, the prince has been out for half a year, and he has not returned yet, and now the demon clan is raging and the situation is turbulent, it can really be described as an eventful time, and the matter of the prince is suspicious of the prince, I am afraid that there will be trouble!"
Under the crystal jade, I saw an old man with white eyebrows, standing behind the green jade screen of 'White Horse Out of Cangshan', holding fists with both hands, hanging down his upper body, respectfully, and slowly said to the man sitting on the dragon chair.
The old man slowly raised his head, although his hairline was slightly old, but his eyebrows were full of energy, and he was full of light, and he was only dressed in green clothes without official robes. And standing upright like a cang, arrogant and lonely pine, his eyes are blazing, prohibitive, and he must also be a high-ranking person.
Scanning the pavilion, every place is full of ingenuity, poor workmanship is extremely beautiful, deep palace, and the majesty of the royal family is everywhere. Looking straight at the man in front of him, his chest was also popping, and he was worried, since ancient times, kings have been like tigers and wolves.
I saw the first man, sitting on the hollow carved dragon gold chair, his face was like white jade, his eyes were golden and embarrassing, his eyes were like charm, as if he could penetrate a qiē, about forty years old, wearing the crown of the Emperor of Pingtian, wearing a golden robe, and chasing the wind and auspicious clouds.
This person is the emperor of the Jin clan - the White Emperor, Bai Zhaozhi.
"Taifu, the prince has really not returned for a long time? I think he has been holding my secret order for more than half a year. I thought that he had a first taste of the world, on a whim, and after breaking off a major event, he became playful for a while, but now according to you, there must be something strange about this matter!
"I think that my Jinmu coalition army has besieged the bird clan and retreated to the area of 'One Hundred Thousand Spirit Mountain', like a bird in a cage can't get out, but my coalition army is limited by food and grass, not to mention that there are quite a few people who can fight well among the demon clan, and now the demon clan can only be in a fight, and cannot be annihilated in one fell swoop. The crown prince and the widow secretly ordered the '100,000 Spirit Mountain', it is in such a sensitive season, you should thoroughly investigate the flying bird demon clan, and you must not take it lightly!"
"It's better to kill by mistake than to let go!"
"No!" is a round word, cutting iron.
Taifu was full of doubts, the whole person was fluttering, walked out of the study room, and secretly said in his heart:
"Could it really be the Demon Clan's doing? There are a lot of doubts about this matter, and now it is an extraordinary period, and aside from the Jinmu Clan, the Flying Bird Demon Clan is now in the northwest area, if it is really the Demon Clan's doing, the current war is urgent, how can this matter be investigated? Such a heavy task, how should it be good!?"
As soon as Emperor Bai saw Taifu leaving, he slowly put away the majesty of the emperor, his face was loose, his hands were propped on the table, he slowly leaned on the carved dragon golden chair, and rubbed his temples slightly. Ordered the two servants and maids to beat their backs lightly, and the look of exhaustion was not expressed, presumably in the past few decades: the demon war, the prince did not return and many other large and small state affairs have made him exhausted and exhausted.
While closing his eyes, he pondered:
"Hao'er went out on this expedition, carrying the holy treasure of our clan, and the first fierce general of the 'Wind and Fire City Lord' accompanied him, and the widow thought that he would be able to sit back and relax. It is enough for Hao'er to make meritorious achievements, multiplied by the unification, who would have thought that such an incident would happen in his life, hey! If it goes on like this, how can the widow be at ease!"
The world only thinks that the emperor is good, but once this position is sitting, there is a reason that the height is not cold, and it is as simple as eating and drinking tea, and it is difficult for ordinary people to be the head of a family, let alone the king of a country.
"Dark Dragon Guard, use a qiē method to find out about the disappearance of the prince!"
The majestic voice floated in the empty Shang study, no one answered, and no one replied, just like the White Emperor's command to the air. After the White Emperor spoke, he no longer spoke, lightly lifted the blue and white glass bowl, took a sip of 'Huaxu pear fragrance', the house was full of fragrance, and secretly took a nap -
South Gate Suzaku Street, the showers stopped.
"Get out of the way, and all the people in front of you will get out of the way! If anyone obstructs official business, they will be killed!"
I saw a fierce forbidden army brigade dressed in black iron armor, running wildly on Suzaku Street. The formation is dense, the military appearance is majestic, don't wait to see more, there must be a hundred battles in front of you, and the generals of the army continue to urge the war horse under the crotch, and it disappears from people's sight in the blink of an eye.
The general of the army turned over and dismounted, took out a notice from his bosom, and simply pasted it on the notice board of Suzaku Street, then turned around and galloped quickly, and drove to the next notice board.
Suddenly, the people around the notice board were crowded, surrounded by the inner and outer three floors, and countless people desperately squeezed forward, but in vain, just when the riot was endless, only a loud shout was heard:
"Don't squeeze it, everyone, wait for me to read it!"
It turned out to be a boy in brocade, who was originally a delicate and arrogant person, but now he has messy hair and looks like a wolf. Covered with mud, he must have suffered a lot in the crowd just now, and he made this decision under all kinds of scoundrels. I saw him slightly groomed, gently shaking the paper fan, a beautiful man. Read aloud:
"The demon clan is raging, the people are miserable, but the power of one person is unable to calm the general trend of the world and save thousands of people from the dire situation, miserable!
"In the eventful autumn, how can the male son of my Jin clan be good alone, and the male child should take the pacification of the world as his own responsibility, fight on the battlefield, serve the country, and establish the glory of eternal immortality! ”
"Anyone who takes the initiative to join the army will be rewarded with ten taels of silver and one acre of fertile land. If you are unfortunate enough to sacrifice your life for the country, you will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver and 5 acres of fertile land."
Before the sound fell, there was a commotion in the crowd.
"Your Majesty is recruiting soldiers again, it seems that this 'One Hundred Thousand Spirit Mountain' demon war is inevitable, why is the demon clan so hateful, they have to come to seize our human territory, aren't they very good in the barren mountains and mountains?"
"Hey, it seems that there will be countless casualties this time, do you have to fight, why can't the two clans coexist peacefully!"
"I think I'll forget it, I have an eighty-year-old mother, and I have swaddling clothes waiting to be fed, I won't fight for this opportunity. ”
Countless people are talking about it, where do the common people know who is right and who is wrong, but peace and happiness are everyone's worries. The turbulence in the world is becoming more and more intense, and it can really be said: 'Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer!"——
Sihai Tea House, hall on the first floor
"Yo, Zhang Gongzi, you are also here, why don't you go to Wanhualou to listen to music today?"
"Oh, it turned out to be Li Yuanwai, then why do you have time to come here for tea today? Don't go to the pawnshop? Come on, let's sit down and talk together." ”
"Do you know that something big is happening right now!"
"What's the matter? Then you have to tell the old man about it, is it the White Emperor's conscription? If this is the case, then you don't need to say much, now the city is full of storms, and I don't know about it. ”
"It's also this, it's not this," Zhang Gongzi said with a shake of his head.
That Li Yuanwai was aroused countless curiosity at the moment, and he was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't know it very clearly, and asked anxiously: "What does Zhang Gongzi say about this, is there still an inside story about the White Emperor's conscription?"
Zhang Gongzi looked left and right, attached himself to Li Yuanwai's ear, and whispered: "You don't know yet, this White Emperor's conscription is mainly because the prince is missing."
"What, you said the prince is missing!" Li Yuanwai shouted loudly, and stood up suddenly, his eyes widened, and his face was full of doubt, and he couldn't believe this shocking news.
Li Yuanwai didn't know, but he was shocked at first glance, and the entire Sihai Teahouse was silent.
Li Yuanwai was also embarrassed and abnormal at this time, who knew that he was abrupt, and he actually leaked this shocking secret, and in a trance, he was stunned and at a loss.
At this moment, Li Yuanwai felt that his clothes were being pulled by something, and when he turned his head to look, he found that it was Zhang Gongzi, who was constantly glancing at him.
In a daze, Li Yuancai came back to his senses and bowed to the four sides with his fists.
"Little old man is talking nonsense, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously!"
Li Yuanwai sat on the stool in despair, a breeze blowing, shivering. It must have been the unintentional words just now, which made his clothes completely soaked, but he didn't even notice it.
It's really ridiculous to think of his dejected appearance, but it's a pity that everyone has no time to watch, and they are all deeply attracted by the shocking secret he just said, and they are all in deep thought.
Zhang Gongzi also didn't say a word, hurried to his home, and disappeared without a trace at the corner of the street in the blink of an eye.
At this time, everyone in the Sihai Teahouse came back to their senses, but it was a pity that everyone had no intention of drinking tea, and they said to each other at the moment: Farewell! Even the Four Seas Tea House was closed for three days in a row.
As the saying goes: there is no wind and no waves. The prince disappeared in Baisha City, like a lake as flat as a mirror, and a stone was thrown down, causing waves that even other ethnic groups had heard of.
Among the people, they didn't know whether the prince's disappearance was true or not, but they were talking about it in private. All kinds of gossip and gossip spread like a fryer. Everyone on the street and in the vegetable market is secretly speculating, predicting what is about to happen.
