Section 199 Blood Oath
Emperor Shunming gradually came back to his senses. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He turned his head to look at Xiaohe who was sitting beside him, and then at Yang Tianhong, his eyes were a little complicated.
Some things, once they are spoken, are actually simple and clear. It is no secret that Yang Tianhong studied in Guozijian before, and Xiaohe's follow-up in the library pavilion was also arranged by King Changle. At the beginning, King Changle just wanted Xiaohe to read more books in an undisturbed environment, and by the way, he could contact more students as an ordinary person, so that he could understand the experience that could never be obtained in the inner courtyard of the palace. It's just that no one thought that Yang Tianhong was an outlier, and he had no interest in the poems taught by the teachers of Guozijian, and ran to the library all day long to read the articles. Boars and sows are freely paired together, not to mention a young man and a woman. The so-called long-term love is like this, King Changle originally wanted to find an appropriate time to talk about the matter to Emperor Shunming. Yang Tianhong thinks the same. It was very unexpected, in the New Year's greeting in Guangping Houfu, I saw my cousin Yang Hu who was crippled by Xuan Junde. Suddenly, a series of plans came out of Yang Tianhong's shrewd and peerless mind.
Avenging Yang Hu is only the surface of the plan. Even if all the Xuan family members died, Yang Tianhong was not moved by this. He has already been given the post of envoy of Anzhou Festival, and he will leave the capital after the New Year. If he is not there, his relationship with Xiaohe may change. The princess is noble, but she can't help herself. King Changle may not be able to say that Emperor Ming is moving, and it is better to do this kind of thing by himself. With Xuan Guangjing's attack on the barracks, Emperor Shunming must feel guilty in his heart. Under such a psychological premise, it must be much simpler to marry a princess as a marquis and a festival envoy than usual.
Xiaohe was a little surprised. This plan was improvised by Yang Tianhong and was not consulted with her. However, this is also the result that I most desperately want.
The cousins sitting on the side of the main hall had their eyes full of shock and hatred. And the rage that can almost burn people alive.
Yang Tianhong is very handsome, noble, and a monk...... In another world, the best diamond king is the best diamond king. This kind of man is definitely the best marriage partner, and even the aunt who cooks in the cafeteria will suddenly fall in love when she sees it. Every day, whether you want to or not, you will be given more rice in the bowl, and if you buy a dollar of vegetarian fried lotus white, she will give you a big spoonful of sweet and sour pork ribs. Wait until you finish eating, and there is free chicken soup to drink.
The word princess sounds good, but you can't make your own decisions about marriage. Although Xiaohe lived in the Changle Palace, he also heard a lot of anecdotes about these cousins. It's nothing more than taking a fancy to the son of an official and nobleman, or he is bent on marrying a powerful man. There are even more unbearable things, he had an affair with the servants in the house at a young age, but he thought that his affairs were close and no one knew.
In the circle of noblewomen in the capital. There is a list of candidates who are the best, the most promising, the most valuable, and the best husband. The man in the first place is Yang Tianhong.
This list is not a secret in the circle of noblewomen, but every month there will be changes in the ranking before and after the candidates. It is said that a few years ago, Yang Tianhong was not even qualified to be included in this list. At that time. The noblewoman of the capital had never even heard of his name. On the contrary, it was Yang Wenjia and Yang Wenyao, the two sons of the inner courtyard of the Yang Mansion, who were able to occupy the last seat on the list.
Everything changes. It all started when Yang Tianhong left the Guiyuan Sect and returned to the Great Chu Dynasty. Luoping Mountain made great contributions to the suppression of bandits, first in charge of the Xuanhuo Battalion, then promoted to the Xuanhuo Army, and then later defeated the Yue barbarians in the first battle in southern Xinjiang, and was named the Yiyong Hou and Anzhou Festival Envoy by Emperor Shunming. This was the result of the ladies who quickly changed their opinions about him. In the last month, the list has changed, and Yang Tianhong has also been able to jump to the first place.
Of course, this is only the opinion of some of the noblemen, and it does not represent the opinion of everyone. Some noblewomen feel that Yang Tianhong's foundation is unstable. If Emperor Shunming returns to heaven with the dragon, Yang Tianhong will definitely be in trouble. Because this person has never been liked by the prince, and even for the sake of the beast, he has a bad relationship with the prince. There are also noble ladies who feel that this is precisely the performance of Yang Tianhong's outstanding ability. Just take out a few wild beasts, and you can make the Lu family, which has a lot of money, fall overnight. This scheming and stratagem alone is unmatched. What's more, how can that desolate beast be caught just as it is said? If things become so easy, the desolate beast in the world will be no different from a copper plate and a pound of leeks on the market.
Perhaps, next month's list ranking, Yang Tianhong will fall behind. But no matter what, the three words "Yi Yong Hou" are a certainty, even if he really did something to make the emperor angry, he would definitely not take back the knighthood. Even a princess will fall in love with the handsome and dashing young powerful. is these cousins of Xiaohe, and even a few people have released rumors, claiming that Yang Tianhong is their future husband. Whoever dares to rob will be beaten to death.
Women are also violent. Compared to men, they are no less brutal than men.
Emperor Shunming's gaze was full of doubts, and it was also full of inquiry.
To be honest, Yang Tianhong's actions at this time really shocked him, and at the same time, he felt very happy in his heart. But after a short period of cheerful shock, a thick question arose in my mind.
When it comes to finding a husband for his beloved daughter, Yang Tianhong is definitely one of the most suitable candidates.
As the children get older, there are more and more things to worry about. If you take the wrong step and see the wrong person, you will only have endless troubles in the future.
As early as a few years ago, Emperor Shunming ordered Dongfang Kong to secretly test the sons of the ministers of the court. The method is very simple, it is nothing more than sending the inner guards and the inner guards to contact each other in private, and to make secret visits. Eliminate the misconduct, stupidity, and mediocrity among them. As a result, there are more than a dozen people to choose from after the officials of the DPRK and China. Among them, there are young leaders who are proficient in poetry and writing, and there are also men with gentle temperaments and good conduct. As for fame, in the eyes of Emperor Shunming, it is still secondary. As long as your daughter likes it and likes it, she can find a knighthood from the beginning, which is a matter of one sentence.
The problem that really gave Emperor Shunming a headache was the huge black birthmark on Xiaohe's face. Marriage is a matter of looking at each other. If you take a fancy to yourself, but the other party thinks that your daughter is ugly and flatly refuses, isn't it boring for yourself?
Men like beautiful wives, and women also like their husbands to be handsome and martial. The reason why Xiaohe has long passed the age of marriage. The officials of the DPRK and China did not propose to marry the royal family, because the birthmark on Xiaohe's face was too terrifying. On this issue, Emperor Shunming has always felt that he owes his daughter too much. After all, birthmarks are born and raised, from parents, and have nothing to do with nurture or nurture.
Yang Tianhong's excellence is obvious to all. Even if you are on the side of the enemy. Li Shengjie and others are also impeccable in his conduct and ability to handle government affairs. Guangping Hou is in the same vein, and he has always been loyal to Da Chu, and Yang Tianhong was recognized by Emperor Shunming with his own ability, and was knighted in the first war in southern Xinjiang. Give your daughter to this person, and Emperor Shunming can rest assured. The Yang family is loyal and brave, and her daughter will definitely be respected by the Yang family after she passes the door. But respect and happiness are two different things. On the surface, the respect may be closed that the husband and wife can't sleep in the same bed at all. This is true for many families. Husband and wife will never show their faces, the man goes outside to find the woman to be happy, and the wife either fornicates with the male servant at home, or simply spends money to raise a few male pets. If this kind of thing happened, Emperor Shunming felt terrible when he thought about it, and he simply pushed his daughter into the fire pit.
Emperor Shunming was hesitant and didn't know how to answer. He looked at Xiaohe steadily, trying to find the answer from his daughter's face.
Xiaohe understood his father's doubts.
She smiled and stood up from her chair. Holding the corner of his skirt, he walked to Yang Tianhong's side. With him, knelt side by side.
There is no need to speak at such times. With one look and one action, you can clearly express your mind.
Li Shengjie, the head of the household, Dai Gongcheng, the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, and others looked at each other, and they all felt puzzled, and their faces were full of incomprehension. And deep vigilance.
"Your Majesty, this seems a little inappropriate!"
Yuan Songtao, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, looked at Yang Tianhong, bowed deeply to Emperor Shunming, straightened up and said: "Yi Yonghou is a super marquis, and he is also the envoy of Anzhou. It can be described as a high authority. Princess Wenyuan, if she marries the Yang family, this rich grace is too much. The old minister did not agree with this matter, and asked His Majesty to think about it carefully. ”
Yang Tianhong turned his head, stared at Yuan Songtao fiercely, and sneered: "Lord Yuan, what does it have to do with you if you ask to marry Princess Wenyuan? Whether it is allowed or not is a matter for His Majesty. Whether to marry or not is a matter for the princess. All of this has nothing to do with you. What do you mean by talking nonsense and messing around here? Could it be that you have any other thoughts about Princess Wenyuan? Or do you want to marry Your Majesty, so you can stop it, so that it is convenient for you to catch up?"
As soon as the words came out, the hall that had been silent for a long time suddenly burst into laughter. Even the cousins of the little lotus with resentment on their faces laughed and were overjoyed.
Yuan Songtao is already in his fifties. Getting old is not a problem. The key is that Yuan Songtao's old wife is very fierce, and Yuan Songtao is also very afraid of his wife, and he is an out-and-out strict wife. The two of them have conflicts on weekdays, and Yuan Songtao has always been defeated. This matter is not a secret in the DPRK, Yuan Songtao was often pulled off by his wife, and over time, there was not a single beard left on his chin.
"Yuan Shangshu is really old-hearted, there is a fierce woman in the family, and he still wants to ask to marry a princess. It's just that I don't know if if Yuan Shangshu can go home and sleep tonight if the matter spreads?"
"I'm laughing to death, Yi Yonghou is also a wonderful person, using this kind of thing to ruthlessly shame Lord Shangshu, Yuan Mansion must be a chicken flying and a dog jumping today, and there will be no peace. I have seen Mrs. Yuan, a woman who can't rub sand in her eyes. When the palace feast is over, you and I will leave early, and wait near Yuan's mansion, and we will definitely be able to watch a good show. ”
"Isn't Lord Yuan old and frail? How can he still be so calculating to marry the princess? Is it really true that he has fulfilled that sentence: A person's heart is not old, his heart is as hard as steel, but his body is as soft as tofu and rotten when he touch......es it?"
All kinds of ridicule and ridicule came out, and they swirled in Yuan Songtao's ears. He stared at Yang Tianhong viciously, his old face was full of shame and bright red. Gritting his teeth, he couldn't wait to pounce and gnaw on a few pieces of flesh on Yang Tianhong's body.
Of course, he couldn't think anything wrong about the princess. Yuan Songtao has been an official for many years and has rich experience. He instinctively didn't believe that there was any love between Yang Tianhong and Xiaohe, but he felt that Yang Tianhong had ulterior motives. In line with the premise that not letting the opponent achieve the goal is success, Yuan Songtao stopped it without thinking about it. But I didn't expect it. Yang Tianhong's words were sharp, and he put himself in an embarrassing place as soon as he saw him. Now, it is said and spoken, and no one listens to the arguments.
The old wife at home is also a trouble. When I go back today, I will definitely find myself and make a big fuss. Thinking of this, Yuan Songtao's face was full of regret. I knew it was so. Why should you stand up and be a wicked person? It's just that the fish didn't eat it, and it got fishy.
Emperor Shunming's mind was all on Xiaohe. Yang Tianhong's rebuttal was completely deaf and deaf.
He saw a smile in his daughter's eyes. It's very sweet and extremely pure. This kind of heartfelt smile, Emperor Shunming only saw it when Xiaohe was young. Speaking of which, he is also busy with government affairs and does not care enough about his daughter. Yang Tianhong is also damned, he didn't do his job in Guozijian to study, and he actually went to the library to seduce his daughter. But. From another point of view, it's a good thing. At least, her daughter has a beloved, and looking at Yang Tianhong's appearance, she also attaches great importance to Xiaohe.
There are many ministers who dare to take the initiative to ask for relatives above the court. However, the man who proposed to marry Xiaohe as his wife, I am afraid that there is only one Yang Tianhong in the world.
Looking at Xiao He, who was full of happiness and smiles, Emperor Shunming secretly sighed "silly girl" in his heart. He turned his gaze. looked at Yang Tianhong with unprecedented seriousness, and then asked, "You want to ask for the pearl of my palm." But really?"
Yang Tianhong knew what Emperor Shunming thought, as well as his worries.
Xiaohe is so ugly. As long as she is a man in her right mind, he won't look at her at all. Not to mention marrying home as a wife.
Yang Tianhong bowed again and said, "Weichen dares to ask His Majesty to give him a sword." ”
Emperor Shunming didn't understand what Yang Tianhong wanted to do. He frowned, and gestured with his gaze to Dongfang Kong, the chief chamberlain standing next to him. In a moment, a small yellow door walked up to the main hall with a silver platter. There was a dagger on the plate.
Yang Tianhong picked up the dagger. Cut it firmly on your left wrist. Suddenly, the blood flowed like a torrent.
He straightened up, and his loud voice resounded throughout the hall: "Yang Tianhong swears with blood here that in this life and this life, he will definitely love Princess Wenyuan." The eternal marriage will definitely not disappoint Her Royal Highness the princess's affection. If this statement is violated, Yang Tianhong is willing to bear the wrath of the thunder and the suffering of burning his body forever. Since then, his body has been shattered, and his soul has been sent to the eighteenth layer of hell, and he will not be reincarnated for eternity. ”
It's too much of a vow. The curse was so vicious that everyone in the hall suddenly changed color when they heard it. Even the prince, who was sitting on the side and watching coldly, couldn't help but be moved.
A lot of people think that swearing is no different from farting, but it's not like that at all. In the dark, there is always a force that restricts people's hearts and judges good and evil behaviors. This is the principle that good deeds are reaped by good deeds. Although the wicked will not be punished for a while, the Heavenly Dao will always record what he has done one by one. When there is too much evil, the heavy punishment and retribution will make the wicked regret it.
Emperor Shunming no longer had the slightest doubt in his heart.
Yang Tianhong is a cultivator.
The blood oath is the most important type of oath taken by monks. Once this vow is made, it can never be changed. Heaven will watch you all the time and judge your actions according to your oath. If there is a violation, the heavens and the earth will immediately fall, and the oath bearer will not even have a chance to defend himself. Even if there is a way to avoid the thunder and fire, the heart demon will arise spontaneously while breaking the oath, and it will be difficult to improve an inch of skill for a lifetime, and it will drop sharply in a short period of time, and even become a mortal completely.
This is absolutely not a lie. There are always some beautiful parts in folklore, such as the Weaver Girl going down to meet the Cowherd, the Erlang God taking a fancy to a certain royal lady and her Yunyu, and then a certain daughter of the Dragon King's family met a scholar who entered Beijing to take the exam, and they looked at each other, etc...... These legends are not unfounded, and the monks who broke their oaths and lost their mana are the basis of the legends. Even, the Mahayana masters who have already ascended to the previous session will fall to the dust because of their oaths.
It is precisely because the consequences of the blood oath are so serious that few people will swear easily, let alone break their promises after taking the oath.
"Okay!
Emperor Shunming spoke loudly, almost roaring. His face was full of joy, and there was no longer the most profound city he usually had. With an excellent man like Yang Tianhong as his companion, presumably his daughter will not feel lonely. Although I don't know how far the relationship between the two people has progressed, just looking at the heartfelt smile in Xiaohe's eyes, Emperor Shunming feels that this is probably the most satisfying thing for his daughter in his life.
On the top of the main hall, Yang Tianhong directly took Xiaohe's hand and held it tightly in his palm. At this moment, he truly felt happiness. is different from the gentle family affection when I first met my sister Yang Qiurong, this is the love I fought for. Things between men and women, to put it bluntly, are actually very simple, but it is really difficult to really sit up. If nothing else, just looking at the people around the hall whose eyes were full of jealousy and envy is the best example. (To be continued.) )
