Volume 1: Elm Maple Blue Chapter 62: Elm Maple Blue (10)
"His Highness Ruide has arrived!"
A loud cry came from outside the gate of the Imperial History Mansion in Snow Blue City, and with the sound of gold and iron clashing, bright yellow cloaks were unfurled, and several long golden lion flags were shining brightly, roaring into the gate of the Imperial History Mansion, and the hard cowhide boots stepped on the steps in front of the Imperial History Mansion, with a sonorous sound.
The eldest son of the 18th Emperor of the Rongzhou Great Hui Dynasty, the eldest son of the Emperor of the Great Hui Dynasty of Rongzhou, the son of the second concubine of the Karaandan Kingdom, jumped off the war horse covered with silver shining armor and walked into the Imperial History Mansion without squinting.
Blonde hair and white skin, tall and handsome, with the brave and fearless adventurous blood of the Chiyan Emperor flowing in his body, and the great and sacred Xuanyuan mother's bloodline, the eyes were sharp, the temples were in the ears, the corners of the mouth were slightly raised, and he stared at the ministers kneeling in front of him.
The guard officer brought a solid sandalwood chair and respectfully unfastened his cloak for the company, revealing the two proud and roaring golden lion heads on his shoulder armor.
He sat down.
The ministers and generals shouted again: "Respectfully ask His Royal Highness Ruide to raise the account!" β
Yutai Ruide waved his hand, and everyone in the audience was silent.
"Get up."
In the sound of gold and iron clashing, everyone in the hall stood up and shouted loudly and neatly: "No! β
A man with a mouth full of yellow teeth, a hunched waist, and the appearance of an official stood at Ruide's side, and sang loudly and coquettishly, and the voice seemed to match his appearance:
"The eldest son of the emperor of the Great Hui Dynasty, the royal gift of King Yufeng, the lord of Snow Blue City, the commander of the east of Buting Mountain and the west of Snow Blue City, leading the Tianwei army of 5,000, governing the Wolf Tooth Guard of Snow Blue City, His Royal Highness Ruide ascended to the account!"
"His Royal Highness Wei Ruide and King Yufeng's orders are to listen!" The generals once again bowed their heads respectfully and shouted loudly.
The internal official shouted again: "The original Snow Blue City Wolf Tooth Guard is unified into the Tianwei Army, and it is under the command of His Royal Highness Rui De's Great General Lieshan Yungui. β
Snow Blue City Wolf Tooth Guard Commander Lie Shan Yan hesitated slightly, but still bowed his head respectfully and promised: "His Royal Highness Wei Ruide, King Yufeng's order is to listen!" β
According to the customary column, the Wolf Tooth Guard is a local armed force and obeys the orders of the Lord of the Imperial History Mansion, and the former Lord of the Imperial History Mansion Ma Lanxiao went to the Changyuan Purple Palace to resume his life, and the Salt Historian Lord Ma Lan and Chang also returned to Nanshu, so when Lord Ma Lanxiao left, he regarded Lieshan Yansheng as a temporary imperial history and managed Snow Blue City on his behalf.
Now, His Royal Highness Ruide arrived, dismissed him from his post with a word, and incorporated the Wolf Tooth Guard, which originally belonged to the Imperial History Mansion, under the command of Lieshan Yungui, the general of the Tianwei Army, Lieshan Yan didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
What's going on? Before Lord Ma Lan left, he just went to the Changyuan Purple Palace to return to his life, and he didn't say that he would leave, and everyone in this Imperial History Mansion was still Lord Ma Lanxiao's people.
Shantai Ruide waved his hand, and the old internal official with yellow teeth respectfully retreated, and Tangtai Ruide stood up and squinted his eyes at Lieshan Yan: "Dismiss everyone in the Imperial History Mansion, and now this mansion is requisitioned by this king." β
"Lord Goshi, no, I mean the personal belongings of the former Lord Goshi haven't been sorted out yet!" Lieshan Yan didn't move, his gaze wandering a little.
Yutai Ruide stared at him, and that sharp and cold gaze made a chill rise on the back of Lieshan Yan.
Yutai Ruide suddenly laughed: "Look at what this dog slave said? There are also personal belongings of the former Imperial Lord? Have it? Have it?! β
Everyone in the hall also burst into laughter, and the laughter became louder and louder, reaching the eardrums of Lieshan Rock.
Lie Shan Yan looked at everyone suspiciously, to be honest, he really didn't understand what he said was funny.
He turned around and returned to his seat, ignoring Lieshan Yan, and issued an order to the generals:
"Lieshan Yungui immediately went to arrest the traitor Yu Fengguang and his family! Xiaocong led 300 soldiers to block the five gates of Snow Blue City, only allowed to enter but not to leave! The Wolffang Guard of the Burning Mountain Rock captures all the civilians and slave boys in the city after the age of ten! Xiliguang led an army of 500 into the mountains to search and arrest them, and drove out all the people on the mountain. β
"No!" The generals replied sonorously, and with the sound of gold and iron clashing, the generals walked out of the hall one after another.
Lieshan Yan was dumbfounded, what does this mean? Is this to slaughter the city or to exterminate the people? Why didn't he, as the temporary imperial history of Snow Blue City, get any orders in advance?
"The last generalβ" Lieshan Yan mustered up the courage to ask, "The last general didn't get the news of Yu Fengguang's treason beforehand, Lord Yushi, no, I mean the former Lord Yushi didn't explain when he left-"
Without waiting for Lie Shanyan to finish speaking, he interrupted him: "Now this king is to give you an explanation. Yu Fengguang's treason has long been decided, do you still have to question a little wolf tooth guard? β
Lie Shanyan shook his head: "Your Highness, I'm just saying, the last general just said that Yu Fengguang didn't make any moves to commit treason, he went to the Imperial History Mansion twice a month on time to divide the detainment, and handed over the monthly rules, and it has always beenββ"
The big internal official with yellow teeth interjected: "Lieshan Rock Capital, when this five stars converge in the west and raise troops, where is the west?" Isn't this where the Yufeng and Gezhi clans are? Are you going to wait for Yu Fengguang to besiege Snow Blue City before reporting?! β
Lieshan Yan was dumbfounded, looked up at Yutai Ruide, and walked out of the hall with a sigh.
Several cavalry Tianwei troops rushed out of the city gate at a gallop and headed towards Buting Mountain.
The five gates of Snow Blue City creaked and closed, and the wolftooth guards at the city gate were replaced by Tianwei troops with spears and lances, while the wolftooth guards who originally guarded the city gates captured boys in the streets and alleys of the city.
When Yu Fenghong and Ah Lan walked to the mud gate, the gate was guarded by the Tianwei Army, and all the boys who crashed in front of the Tianwei Army were arrested.
A notice was posted on the wall in front of the gate saying that the Yufeng and Gezhi tribes had rebelled, and that all civilians and untouchable men were to be arrested and examined.
In front of the city gate, there were ghosts crying and wolves howling, crying and crying to the heavens and the earth.
No one understands what exactly is being sent.
Yu Fenghong pulled his sister to hide in the alley next to him: "You wait here, I'll go and have a look." β
Ah Lan hugged the new clothes that her brother had just bought for her, and her slender body trembled a little: "Brother Hong, they said that my father and my mother rebelled. But my mother can't move or speak, how can she rebel? β
Yu Fenghong grabbed Ah Lan's shoulder: "Listen to me, my father won't rebel, and my mother won't." They must be mistaken. You hide here first, and I'll inquire about it. I'll pick you up when I find my way out of the city. β
"I'm not supposed to buy clothes." Alan regretted it a long time ago, "In this way, we would have left the city gate a long time ago and gone home a long time ago." β
Yu Fenghong tried his best to keep his face calm, and gently comforted Ah Lan: "It's not your fault. Even if we go out of town and go home, they will come and arrest us. β
He reached out and pinched the new clothes in Ah Lan's arms, which he bought for Ah Lan for the first time with the fruits of his labor, and Ah Lan held them tightly in his arms.
Yu Fenghong opened Ah Lan's clenched fist, and in her hand was her small step away, which she had been holding tightly for fear of being stolen again.
"The Dan Ear Man won't come to steal again. Come, I'll put it on you. Yu Fenghong took out Bu Yao from Ah Lan's hand, this is a birthday gift from his father to his sister, no wonder his sister will regard it as a treasure.
Yu Fenghong inserted a good step for Ah Lan, tilted his head to look, and said with a smile: "My Ah Lan is really the most beautiful girl in Snow Blue City. β
Alan smiled awkwardly.
Yu Fenghong grabbed a handful of soil from the ground and gently wiped it on his sister's face, "You will always be the most beautiful girl in my heart, even if there is black mud and loess on your face." β
Ah Lan nodded: "I know, Granny Salt Mud also loves me, so she smeared medicinal mud on my face." β
Yu Fenghong stood up and instructed Ah Lan again: "If someone comes to arrest you, you run, as long as you run out of the city gate, don't look back, keep running towards the mountain-"
Ah Lan looked at Yu Fenghong's back and said softly, "We can't run anymore." β
Yu Fenghong turned around suddenly, and seven or eight wolf-toothed guards with spears and lances were cautiously approaching him, the spear heads sharp and sharp, shining with a blinding cold light in the next summer sun.
The Yu Fenghong siblings were escorted out of the dirty mud door, through the Maple Leaf Avenue, and to the Blood Salt Pool.
"Alas, you bad boy, you ran away in the blink of an eye, go home with your mother!"
An old woman hunched over and curled up stumbled forward, her old face was full of wrinkles, and her face was covered with countless bloody bumps, looking terrifying and terrifying. She grabbed Yu Fenghong without saying anything and ran.
The old woman was almost blind in one eye, and her mouth was so thick with a stench that she didn't seem to have the strength to climb the stairs, and on her head, a few handfuls of white hair were fluttering on her spotted pink scalp.
Yu Fenghong's eyes widened and he glanced at Ah Lan. They all recognized that this was the salty mud granny on Chasi Street, and most of her bloody bumps were made by her own black medicinal mud.
Granny Salt's cloudy eyes that were about to go blind winked at Yu Fenghong, and she didn't care about the spears and lances around her, and rushed over.
"Dead slave, get out of here! This is the order of His Highness Ryder, do you dare to disturb? A wolffang guard violently lifted the salt mud granny.
The salt mud mother-in-law stood unsteadily and fell to the ground, and Yu Fenghong hurriedly went to help.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the salt mud mother-in-law whispered in Yu Fenghong's ear: "Bad boy, you just say it's my son, not someone else's son-alas, why are you lifting me?" In the latter sentence, she yelled at the wolffang guard who lifted her.
Yu Fenghong's eyes widened. But Ah Lan, who was standing next to him, could already hear it clearly.
Granny Salt Mud was dirty and smelly, and those wolf guards didn't want to bend down to pull her, so she rolled on the ground and splashed, but just urged Yu Fenghong to hurry up.
Granny Salt Mud continued, "That stupid sister of yours is also my daughter, do you hear that? - Oh my bad boy, you still don't help me? Your mother, I'm going to die, I'm going to die soon! β
Granny Salt Mud, crying and shouting loudly at the Wolf Tooth Guard, but whispered something completely irrelevant to Yu Fenghong. As this was going on, a leader of the wolftooth guard next to him came over and asked, "What's going on?" β
Granny Salt Mud crawled at the feet of the visitor and hugged her thighs and cried as if she had seen a savior: "General Lieshan, it's me, Granny Salt Mud on Chasi Street, don't you remember that last time your right foot ulcerated and I gave you a medicated mud to heal?" β
Lieshan Yan kicked the salt mud mother-in-law: "You get out of the way, don't affect our official business." β
Granny Salt Mud hugged Lieshanyan's thighs and continued to cry, but at the same time, she took out a dirty small cloth bag from her arms and stuffed it into Lieshanyan's black cowhide boots:
"This is my son, he has had an infectious disease since he was a child, look at his face, look at his head, how terrible, it's just a strange disease that no one in the city has ever seen."
Lie Shanyan squatted down to tie the boot belt, and by the way, he took the small cloth bag stuffed in the boots by the salt mud mother-in-law in his hand, and said softly: "It's useless for me to let him go, I'm arresting people everywhere." β
"As long as you let him go." Granny Yanni also whispered, and then continued to cry: "I have been in Snow Blue City for more than 50 years, and I live on Chasi Street, which of you doesn't recognize me?" I all know that my son is a single transmission for nine generations, and this disease is contagious, and it will cut off children and grandchildren. β
When the wolf fangs heard this, they couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Lie Shanyan stood up, put the small cloth pocket into his waist bag, frowned, and said, "You take him home quickly, put on the medicine mud and then bring him to the blood salt pool, I will wait for His Royal Highness Ruide to order, not a single boy can be let go." β
Granny Salt Mud nodded hurriedly, like a hen pecking rice: "Certainly, cheaply." β
She pulled Yu Fenghong, Yu Fenghong pulled her sister, and the three of them ran with their heads down.
A few steps away, a pair of black cowhide boots with a leather face as bright as a mirror appeared under the eyes of the salt mud mother-in-law, the owner of the boots was tall and handsome, full of golden curly hair, the noble general said with a smile: "This king sent you home for medicine, so good?" β
The salt mud mother-in-law thundered, and her body trembled violently.
