Chapter 42: The Eve of the Break
Columns of Zhongzhou guards wearing silver dragon armor poured out like a tide, making the usually empty and cold Yunqin Imperial Palace suddenly become a little crowded.
However, no matter how turbulent these silver waves spread, they did not dare to step on the golden floor tiles of the central axis of the palace, and did not dare to block in front of the seven majestic black and gold carriages.
All these silver-armored guards looked in awe at the sight of the seven black and gold carriages they had seen for the first time in their lives, and all kinds of shocked conjectures continued to arise in their hearts, and their palms were full of wet cold sweat, and the breakfast they had just eaten was extremely uncomfortable in their stomachs.
The black and gold carriage that moved first was slightly out of the central axis, and the rest of the black and gold carriages followed the carriage in twos and threes, along the side road, around the main hall, and finally appeared in front of the imperial study.
The black and gold carriage was quietly facing the imperial study.
The door to the study was closed, and there was silence inside.
There were two attendants standing at the door, facing the seven black and gold carriages that had been quiet, not daring to raise their heads, their faces became more and more pale, and their bodies began to tremble involuntarily.
"If you dare to do it, you don't need to run away. ”
In the black-gold carriage that stopped in front of him, a cold and violent voice was heard.
"Not leaving?"
At the time of this sound, a low rebuke also came from a carriage behind him.
This voice was spoken to the two attendants at the door of the imperial study and some silver-armored generals in the rear.
Although the tone of this sentence was severe, but the two attendants were like being amnestied, their eyes showed some grateful, and they immediately bowed their heads and retreated, and for a while, the Zhongzhou Wei generals in the rear also retreated cleanly, and around the imperial study, there were only seven black and gold carriages, and there was no other trace.
There was still no sound in the study.
The summer breeze blew among the eaves of the temple, and a slow tapping sounded.
The sound was still coming from the first black and gold carriage, the knuckle striking the metal depot of the carriage.
The tapping sound is slow but non-stop.
A faint, but palpitating aura enveloped the surroundings of the Imperial Study.
The sounds seemed to mingle into the sound of many people tapping their fingers on the blades in the alley.
Several summer cicadas clinging to the trees in the courtyard were suddenly frightened and ready to fly, but at the moment of flying, their entire abdomen suddenly exploded and fell under the tree and died.
"I don't want to see it, so I won't see it, what, do you dare to force the palace!"
An equally violent, angry thunder sounded from the imperial study, and the wind suddenly rose in front of the imperial study, and the wind whistled between the black and gold carriages.
"The saint doesn't want to see it, he doesn't want to say it, but Jiang is someone who wants to make some things clear. The knocking stopped, and the man in the first black and gold carriage said indifferently and violently.
Hearing his name, an extremely low sigh came out from a carriage behind him, as if he sighed, and seemed to relax slightly.
"Yes, I want to hear what you have to say!" the Emperor sneered.
"Jiang wants to talk about why he is qualified to ride this black gold carriage. The voice in the black gold carriage was cold, and it came out slowly but non-stop, "Twenty-seven years before the founding of Yunqin, the six gangs and thirteen gates of Zhongzhou City carried out a big fire fight in the streets and alleys around Jiande Gate. Jiang helped thousands of people, and only 73 survived. This battle was related to the dispute between the former emperor and the residence clan. ”
"Twenty-five years before the founding of the Yunqin Dynasty, Jiang received news that Xihou took the time of the emperor's private visit to his friends, launched an assassination in the Yangchun Lane area, Jiang found out that it was too late, and he was unable to deal with Xihou thousands of men and horses, when the assassination was launched that night, but finally I found out where Xihou and several henchmen were, Jiang and dozens of brothers, killed into the hidden residence of Xihou and his henchmen, cut off their heads, and ran wildly all night, rushed to Yangchun Lane in the rainstorm, the rebel assassins saw Xihou give the head, and retreated in shock, that night in the rainstorm, Jiang someone's brothers, together with Jiang someone, only survived four。 ”
"Eighteen years before the founding of Yunqin, except for the traitor Wu Chengang and his father, Jiang was hit by twelve arrows and was lucky not to die. ”
"Thirteen years before the founding of the Yunqin Dynasty, Xiyi was already in chaos, and after the catastrophe, the treasury was empty, and Jiang was a man who sold his capital and recruited troops for the emperor in the Heluo area, and then died on the battlefield. ”
"Seven years before the founding of Yunqin......"
"Enough!" a furious thunder in the imperial study interrupted the cold, violent, slow, sound of the black and gold carriage.
"The Holy One said enough, obviously he knows these things, and reminds Jiang that someone should not lie on these things in the past and be arrogant?" The voice in the black gold carriage was still violent, but it began to be full of sarcasm and strong killing intent, "However, I think the Holy Lord may have forgotten and ignored some things. ”
"When Sun met the emperor, Sun was still just a figure in the market, although the eldest grandson had been called the king, but the world was divided, even in Zhongzhou, there was a big trouble for the residence family, and he wanted to rob this Zhongzhou. ”
"Before the founding of Yunqin, the first emperor, the heroes, and even Dean Zhang were half of the people in the rivers and lakes, fighting, killing, and killing, conspiring and calculating, and unscrupulous. ”
"Ran Yun Qin established the country, the first emperor officially became a generation of great emperors, set up the great law of the country, set up eight divisions, many people in the past, all performed their duties, the division of labor was orderly, and they did all the things of the court. Since that day, the first emperor and the eldest grandson have been saints and kings of a country since that day, and naturally they are no longer characters in the rivers and lakes, and we people are naturally no longer characters in the rivers and lakes. ”
"Since he is no longer a figure in the rivers and lakes, and he is in the court, he must follow the laws of the country and the laws of the emperor. Even if the saint can't see what the minister does, even if the saint wants to kill the minister, he must follow the law and the rules set by the emperor!"
The voice in the black gold carriage became colder and colder, "There is a heavenly sword in the saint, but he directly assassinates the minister, which means that he has regarded himself and me as a figure in the rivers and lakes." ”
"If the minister doesn't do favoritism, why do I have to do such a thing?" A sneer also came from the imperial study, "Don't you think it's ridiculous to say such a thing?"
"Many of the rules in this world are ridiculous for people like us. The voice in the black gold carriage said coldly, "However, this is the rule that supports the entire empire... The more we know, the more we know that these seemingly ridiculous rules are what we must enforce for the vast majority of the Empire, and that for us, this is just a bottom line... It's just that the Holy One has crossed this bottom line!"
In the imperial study, the emperor said angrily: "Collusion with the Divine Elephant Army, this is also the bottom line?"
The man in the black gold carriage said indifferently: "Our Jiang family has nothing to do with the Divine Elephant Army at all. ”
In the imperial study, the emperor said coldly: "There is evidence?"
The cold voice in the black gold carriage said, "There will always be evidence, but the Holy Lord may not have such patience. Just now, the saint does not carry out court affairs, but stays in the imperial study, presumably directly to deal with our Jiang family. ”
The emperor in the imperial study sneered, and the sneer was like thunder, "Then you broke in to see me, just to tell me that I must always believe you because of these merits you have made, even if some evidence shows that the Divine Elephant Army has colluded with your Jiang family?"
"Nope. ”
The voice in the black and gold carriage was lower, but every sound was like the sound of fingers tapping the blade, "I, Jiang, want to tell the saint that it is because of the death of many of my brothers and friends that I have sat in such a position, whether the saint wants to admit it or not, it is the death of many of my brothers and friends that has put the saint in such a position, but the will of the saint has directly killed many of my brothers and friends, what I want to tell the saint is that if the saint does this, he will only force me back to the rivers and lakes." ”
"Boom!"
The imperial study was full of golden thunder.
Emperor Yun Qin was furious: "Jiang Yanzhi, you dare to threaten and intimidate me nakedly!"
The voice in the black gold carriage was completely calm and indifferent: "No, Holy Lord, you can think that this is the last words of a Jianghu figure. ”
"Holy Lord, I believe that the Divine Elephant Army has nothing to do with the Jiang family. ”
"Holy Lord, the matter of the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor can only be turned small, not big. ”
"Everything needs to be focused on the front-line battle. ”
“......”
One after another, sounds began to sound from the black and gold carriage.
"Why do you need to speak?"
Emperor Yun Qin became more and more angry, "As soon as you come together, you have completely demonstrated your attitude. Jiang Yanzhi, what you said is right, I have the Holy Heavenly Sword, so I should not do the thorn of the villain, I will issue an edict today, ordering the Department of Justice to amend the law, from now on, if there are officials from the first rank or above, and the rest of the clan brothers, they will not be able to enter the court as officials, so as to despair the disaster of the clan first, and then try to eliminate the disaster of the party in the future!"
This in itself is only an attitude, and since the Holy One has understood it, there is really no need to say more. ”
In the carriage behind, an old man with a hidden anger voice came out, "What the Holy Lord wants to do, please just think twice." ”
After saying this, the black and gold carriage moved and began to leave the imperial city.
All the rest of the black and gold carriages roared in unison, and they didn't say anything more, and left one after another.
In the imperial study, Emperor Yunqin's eldest grandson, Jinse's hands kept trembling, and his face was difficult to see.
......
Hundreds of officials gathered outside the palace gate, waiting for the seven black and gold carriages to appear on the central axis again.
They didn't know that today, these patriarchs finally carried out a strong backlash in a clear way, under the continuous persecution of the emperor.
They just felt suffocated, watching these black and gold carriages go out of the palace gate, they just felt that the sky in front of them was dark.
"Is that really all there is to it?"
Among the different black and gold carriages, several different old men all sighed in their hearts when the black and gold carriages passed through the palace gate.
Even they didn't expect that their backlash would be so drastic, and their statements would come like this.
Is it the true heart that has been hidden in the bones for a long time, and it was forced out in the rivers and lakes of Jiang Yanzhi, or is it the emperor's heart that can only be effective with the same direct means as Vice President Xia?
