Section 196 Public Opinion

"But then again, Princess Wenyuan's figure is indeed good. The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info is graceful and dignified, and what is even more rare is the nobility of the heavenly family, and the identity alone is much more noble than the women outside. It's a pity that the birthmark on the face is really unappetizing when you look at it. If not, it must be the color of the country, and the city will be overwhelming!"

The voice belonged to an old nobleman with a thin body, gray, sparse hair, and eyes always looking back and forth at the dancing woman in the hall. The distance was very far, and Xiaohe couldn't see the specific appearance of the old man clearly. He seems to be Yongweihou, one of the founding nobles of the Great Chu Dynasty.

The other man sitting next to him was fat. Perhaps, the out-of-control weight can no longer be described by the word "fat". He lowered his voice, leaned closer to Yong Wei, and snickered, "I do know that there is a secret technique of the Immortal Family, which can swap the body and head between two big living people. With Princess Wenyuan's superb body, coupled with the head of the red-card Oiran in the Wanhualou in the capital, you will definitely be able to piece together an enviable beauty. If you could sleep with such a woman in your arms...... That's the real peony flower dying, and being a ghost is also romantic!"

Yong Weihou suddenly became interested: "Oh! is that really the case?"

The obese man gasped with great difficulty, moved his fat belly vigorously, and continued: "The Dao technique is indeed true, the monk immortal master who was supported by my family has practiced it, and it is truly mystical and extraordinary. However, this spell also has fatal flaws. That is, the time to replace the body and head is very short, at most two hours. ”

Yong Weihou's energetic old face suddenly collapsed, but there was still a faint expectation: "If you change your head, you must cut off your head from your original shoulder, and the same is true for your body." So, what about two hours later? The head and body are replaced, and both of them are still alive?"

The fat man took a sip of the wine glass in front of him, and said with a sneering smile: "Yongwei is waiting for the wrong thing! After all, a secret art is only a secret art, not a technique against the heavens that can bring the dead back to life. When the head was cut off, the man was already dead. It's just that a wisp of soul is still there, locked in the body by the monk immortal master with a magic method, and it can't be dissipated for the time being. The hour has come. Da Luo Jinxian couldn't let his head and body return to their respective places. How can the dead be resurrected? If this is the case, wouldn't there be no one in the world who will die......?

The old Yong Weihou understood that he had been tricked by the fat man, but he was not angry. He twisted the few remaining beards on his chin with his fingers, and his squinting eyes kept looking at the little lotus in the main hall, and whispered thoughtfully: "Two hours is enough." It's been a long time to be happy with a beauty, and it's not good for our health. Sometimes I think about it, Ben Hou really wants to change the head of the yellow-faced mother-in-law at home. If you become a young girl, it will be a beautiful thing. ”

The obese man hears this. I couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Yongweihou, you really don't accept old age! Aren't you afraid of dying of exhaustion on a woman's belly? Leaving behind thousands of family wealth that you can't spend all, I'm afraid you won't be able to close your eyes when you go to the grave! Hahahaha!"

There are many more conversations like this. The words between women are even more presumptuous and bold than those of men. Of course, their voices were very low. If it weren't for Xiaohe's cultivation of Yang Tianhong's "Tongtian Decision", even if he had a beginner level of qi refining, he wouldn't be able to hear these chaotic sounds.

"Hmph, what Princess Wenyuan, it's just an ugly thing that no one wants. I don't pee when I look at myself in the mirror, that face is thick and dark. but also occupy the position next to His Majesty. Why is His Majesty not even willing to look at this palace more?"

"What a pity for the gold jewels that were given to her. The night pearl of the East China Sea was dug up from the clams and sent as a tribute. I've seen it from afar. It is really smooth and clean, round and transparent. It is not an exaggeration to describe the pair of beads as priceless. If it's just a pour, it's a pair, made into jewelry and worn on the body, it is said that it can nourish the face and longevity. It's a pity! It's a waste to be taken by that ugly girl. ”

"Forget it. Look at it! Princess Wenyuan is destined to be a woman who can't get married. No amount of gold, silver, or jewelry is left in the storeroom to accumulate dust. When His Majesty returns to the sky, all precious things are not up to the queen mother. No matter what, those things can't fall into the hands of you and me. It's good to be able to take a look, at least to keep a thought. Princess Wenyuan is an unlucky woman, if she is smarter. It's time to plan for later. At least, take out some good things and make friends with the nobles in the palace to keep yourself. ”

The women who said these words included the concubines in the palace, as well as the other daughters of Emperor Shunming. Of course, they are not the same mother as Xiaohe. Like all emperors, Emperor Shunming had a huge harem, and he himself was in good health, and over the decades, there were dozens of sons and daughters. However, Emperor Shunming still remembered the long-dead former empress, and also transferred all his remorse and thoughts to the only bloodline left by the former empress.

Even if he hears rumors that are not good for him, Xiaohe will rot these words in his stomach. There are enough worries about my father, there is no need to use these trivial things to worry him. A daughter who really cares about her father will never put the word "love" on her lips. Just watching him happy and smiling is the happiest thing in the world.

Cousins and cousins constantly came up to toast and congratulate Emperor Shunming, and by the way, they would also salute Xiao He, who was sitting next to him. There is no sincerity in the eyes of these people, all hypocritical and treacherous ridicule. Xiaohe didn't mind, and raised his wine glass to respond, and also looked generous and stupid, making these guys who thought they were proud snicker.

A chamberlain in a palace uniform hurriedly came from outside, whispered a few words in the ear of the chief chamberlain, Dongfang Kong, and handed over a copy of the fold. Xiao He's attention suddenly focused on Dongfang Kong. I saw Dongfang Kong open the fold and look at it quickly, the old man's face wrinkled slightly, and then he shook his head imperceptibly, walked quickly to Emperor Shunming's side, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, wait for Yang Tianhong to ask to see." ”

Xiaohe's heartbeat involuntarily increased a lot, and his face showed a little flush.

Emperor Shunming was very interested. He nodded and said casually, "Announce him in." ”

The head of the chamberlain, Dongfang Kong, stopped talking, thought for a while, and continued: "Your Majesty, Yi Yonghou did not come alone. He also caught Lord Xuanguang Jingxuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. It is said that between two people. There was some controversy. ”

Emperor Shunming put away his thoughts of playing, turned his head, and said, "What dispute?"

Dongfang Kong first handed over the fold in his hand, and then said bluntly: "Xuan Junde, the son of Xuan Guangjing, and his clan went to Hantan Temple outside the city to enjoy the plum blossoms, and there was a dispute with the soldiers of the Xuanhuo Army who went out to practice on the way. The two gangs fought, and Xuan Junde and the Xuan family were seriously injured. Xuanda was very popular, and took the rest of the clansmen to break into the Xuanhuo Army station, wanting to find Yi Yong to ask for an explanation. ”

Hearing this, Emperor Shunming's eyes suddenly revealed a cold and sharp gaze: "What." Xuan Guangjing dared to lead people to trespass into the barracks? Who gave him such a bold son? How did Yang Tianhong deal with it?

Dongfang Kong continued: "Yi Yonghou killed the Xuan family who broke into the military camp in accordance with the law of Great Chu. Because Lord Xuan is a member of the three grades of this dynasty, he took Lord Xuan into the palace to ask His Majesty for a ruling. The matter has been reported to Shuntianfu and Dali Temple, and this excerpt is played by Yin Mo DC of Shuntianfu. The reasons for the events are clearly written on it. ”

Emperor Shunming opened the fold in his hand and glanced at it quickly. Moment. There was a faint hint of anger between his eyebrows, but it dissipated in an instant. After contemplating it. He instructed Dongfang Kong: "Remove the song and dance, Xuan Yang Tianhong and Xuan Guangjing go to the temple." ”

A few minutes later, with the high-pitched and sharp shouts of the attendants in the Yellow Gate, Yang Tianhong, who was wearing armor, walked into the hall with sonorous steps. He was tall and grabbed the back collar of Xuan Guangjing's clothes in his hands. It seems that Xuan Guangjing should have been dragged in all the way. His feet were unsteady, his hair was disheveled, his body was covered in mud, and even one shoe remained.

Walking up the jade steps, Yang Tianhong threw Xuan Guangjing to the side like a burden. Standing in front of Emperor Shunming, he clasped his fists and saluted: "Chen Yi bravely waited for Yang Tianhong, the general of Pingnan, and knocked to see Your Majesty." ”

This is the rule of the Chu State, and military attachΓ©s in armor do not need to kneel after going to the palace.

Xuan Guangjing, who fell to the ground, had already turned pale, like a dead man. At this time, when I arrived at the palace hall, it seemed that the seedlings that had been dry for a long time suddenly encountered the rain and turned around in an instant. He rolled over and got up from the ground, staggered and fell again. In a hurry, he crawled closer with his hands and feet, and shouted at Emperor Shunming: "Your Majesty help! Your Majesty help!"

This scene was really surprising, and the imperial relatives and officials who were drinking and feasting on both sides of the main hall focused their eyes and attention. Curiosity, doubt, anger, wait-and-see...... Various expressions appeared on everyone's faces, and no one spoke, just waiting for the situation to develop.

Xiaohe saw more things in the eyes of others.

The cousins sitting on the side of the main hall. They are also princesses, and their appearance is far better than that of themselves with black birthmarks. Although there are many rules and regulations in the Great Chu State that restrict women's words and deeds, between whispers, the princesses and noblewomen are no less bold than men, and even surpass. Just before, when Yang Tianhong had just appeared at the gate of the main hall, several princesses showed interest in him in private conversations. It's no wonder that women like brave and strong men. Although the status of the generals is low, Yang Tianhong is an outlier among the generals. He is a monk and has a background in the Guiyuan sect. This well-known sense of mystery has made his status as a military general invisibly elevated a lot. Yang Tianhong is handsome, without the vulgarity of a military general, his face is like a crown of jade, his figure is straight, and his graceful demeanor even surpasses some famous nobles in the capital.

What's more, his own writing is also good. The former has "Will Enter the Wine", and the latter has "Jin Se", both of which are poems that have been praised by literati. In particular, Jin Se has long been sung by major restaurants in the capital, and many red cards in Wanhualou even said that they are willing to accept nothing and serve Yi Yong in person. If you can marry Yang Fu, even if you are a servant, you are willing.

Xiaohe saw that several cousins, that is, princesses with the same identity as herself, were staring at Yang Tianhong with fire-breathing eyes. Their attitude is flamboyant and presumptuous, and they have no scruples. It is like an open-screen peacock in a cage that is desperately showing off its beautiful tail feathers to visitors.

It's no wonder that these cousins behave like this. The royal relatives sound good, but they can't help but make their own decisions about marriage. Women, in particular, are mostly appointed by the Zongren Mansion to marry. If you marry well, you can pay it back. If you don't marry well, your life will be wasted. After the court nobles and officials, most of them were the sons of gentlemen who relied on family wealth and power, and there were few men like Yang Tianhong who relied on his own strength to regain his knighthood. Let alone. He is still a monk and has an amazing literary talent, and if this kind of man lets it go, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

Female chasing male compartment yarn. In this era, even if a woman likes a man, she will definitely not take the initiative in public. At most, it is to scratch his head and make a gesture, throwing out a few seductive eyes. made the man feel his heart fluttering when he saw it, and then took the initiative to catch up and say that the matchmaker was about marriage.

Xiaohe couldn't help but shake her head secretly, thinking that these cousins must be complaining. Thinking of this, she was also secretly happy, and there were many men and women competing for her own swear, which also showed Yang Tianhong's excellence in disguise. This kind of good thing feels very good to be alone, and it instantly gives Xiaohe a sense of superiority. Looking at the princesses who were eager to rush over and swallow Yang Tianhong in one gulp, Xiaohe smiled faintly. It's like looking at a group of toys that are performing in unison.

Emperor Shunming looked at the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who was trembling on his knees, tears and tears, and his body was no longer the same, he couldn't help frowning, and then his eyes shifted to Yang Tianhong: "Let's talk about it! What is going on?"

Without waiting for Yang Tianhong to speak, Xuan Guangjing, who was covered with mud, first cried: "Please ask Your Majesty to be the master of the ministers." Yang Tianhong wantonly set up arson and injured my child, and killed hundreds of members of my Xuan family. Such atrocities are truly outrageous! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Yang Tianhong is extremely arrogant. There is no one in sight, and I implore His Majesty to remove him from his post and investigate it. to avenge my family's blood vengeance!"

Yang Tianhong's voice is steady and powerful, and his narration of the story before and after is much more organized than Xuan Guangjing. Soon, people had already understood the reason for the incident, and they also knew why Yang Tianhong dragged Xuan Guangjing to the palace at this time.

"That's nonsense!"

Yuan Songtao, an elderly scholar of the Ministry of Rites, got up from his chair and walked quickly to the center of the hall. He bowed to Emperor Shunming, pointed at Yang Tianhong, who had an indifferent expression, and scolded angrily: "Don't ask the reason, you will kill hundreds of relatives of Xuanshilang, what do you want? The old man asked you, who gave you so much power? What qualifications do you have to kill people casually in the jurisdiction of the capital? The old minister dares to ask Your Majesty. With the crime of great rebellion, Yang Tianhong was pushed out of the noon gate and beheaded immediately. ”

Hearing this, Yang Tianhong turned around abruptly and stared at Yuan Songtao, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, with a fierce and furious gaze.

He walked over quickly, his forehead almost hit Yuan Songtao's head, and he roared like thunder: "The Xuan family trespassed into the military camp without a warrant, this is a mortal crime that must be killed." The Great Chu Decree is clearly written, and this move is tantamount to committing a rebellion. Could it be that Lord Yuan thinks that the Great Chu Law Decree can be violated at will, and the conclusive words written on the dignified documents are all useless nonsense?"

"That doesn't justify your casual killing. ”

Dai Gongcheng, the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, also came over, stood with Yuan Songtao, and challenged Yang Tianhong: "The Great Chu Law Order is a collective order of the imperial court officials. Lord Xuan contributed a lot in this. It's just a trespass in the barracks, why don't you ask the reason and order the killing indiscriminately. When it comes to deliberate rebellion, I think you're the one who really deserves to be killed. ”

Yang Tianhong turned around and sneered at Dai Gongcheng, who was full of gloom and face: "According to Lord Dai's intentions, anyone in this important military camp can come in, anyone can go out? Well, I will order right now to send 3,000 Xuanhuo soldiers to Lord Dai's mansion as guests. Anyway, your home is no different from a bazaar, and anyone can come and go freely. Even the bedroom where you sleep with your wife and concubine can be visited by my Xuanhuo officers and soldiers at will. By the way, I also missed a sentence, I heard that Dai Da gave birth to a daughter, and her appearance is very gorgeous, so the attic should also be opened, and it is also convenient for the Xuanhuo Army to open the eyes of the soldiers who are used to tearing and killing. ”

Dai Gongcheng's old face turned purple, and a lot of blood rushed to the top of his head. He was so angry that he trembled, stretched out his hand and pointed at Yang Tianhong, who couldn't speak, and scolded repeatedly: "You...... Speak insolently...... How dare you insult my daughter's name, old man...... The old man fought with you today!"

Yang Tianhong was not afraid of this threat at all, and immediately shouted: "Come on, as long as you dare to move a single hair, you will guarantee that as long as you dare to walk out of the inner courtyard of this palace, it will be the time when you will die." ”

As soon as this remark came out, all four were shocked. Many Wenchen Xungui, who originally wanted to come up and debate with Yang Tianhong, suddenly remembered that Yang Tianhong was no better than others. Almost all the nobles present inherited the ancestral titles, and only Yang Tianhong relied on his own strength to fight on the battlefield. The military department has already experienced that in the first battle of southern Xinjiang, the Xuanhuo Army's contribution to killing 100,000 troops is true, and there is no falsification, let alone a single meritorious service.

Even Ma Fubo, the former famous general of the Chu State, was far less brave than Yang Tianhong. Of course, to say that it is ugly is to be cruel and murderous. This kind of person is a restless maniac at all, and it doesn't matter if everyone is together and harmonious, and when he is slightly stimulated, he immediately picks up a kitchen knife and turns his face and doesn't recognize people.
