More than 200 years of Xia Guo has been in turmoil.

At the end of March, the border pass passed the battle report again, asking the imperial court to send troops north, the soldiers of the three armies guarded Changning Pass, and suffered heavy casualties.

Emperor Youwu issued an edict and ordered Xichuan to supervise Feng Jiucan as the general of Dingbei, and from now on lead the army to the north, accompanied by the steward eunuch Lin Tingfeng, and awarded the post of "supervising the army".

Lin Tingfeng was one of the seven wolves in the palace, he was trusted by the first emperor when he was young, he was versatile and wise, and he was also the hero of the first emperor's rebellion.

At that time, the rebels sent assassins to assassinate, but they all died under Lin Tingfeng's sword.

Lin Tingfeng, also known as "Lin Tianjian", has superb swordsmanship, and is in charge of the "Palace Punishment Mansion", if there are eunuchs and palace maids who commit things on weekdays, or some concubines, princesses, princesses, etc., make mistakes, it is not convenient for outsiders to ask about the crime, and they will be handed over to the eunuchs of the Palace Punishment Mansion for punishment.

This time, Lin Tingfeng and Xichuan Inspector Feng Jiucan went north together, which was the result of joint deliberation by hundreds of civil and military officials.

In order to avenge the great revenge of the martial arts, the children of the Huang family repeatedly wrote to praise the wisdom of Emperor Youwu.

But in the eyes of Emperor Youwu, these beautiful words are countless blades that strangle his heart.

"An edict took several months, and countless border men died on the battlefield, and the ancient emperors had done so. The supreme of the Great Xia Kingdom, the owner of the world, is really ridiculous, how many people envy my crown. Youwu Emperor Bing Baiyu stood at the height of the pavilion, looking out at the sky in the distance.

Ning Changqing, who was standing behind him, was dressed in green clothes and white face, and did not answer.

Youwu Emperor Bing Baiyu said again: "When my father was in power, he favored the generals and the princes, so that they were finally able to control the government and persecute Zhongliang, and when I succeeded to the throne, they were no longer able to resist their power. The ancient Taishi family is a powerful family in Chaoge City, and I already know what they have done over the years, and when I have many weaknesses in my life, I don't allow them to hurt innocent people at will! In recent years, the tiger camp has been completely controlled by the Taishi relatives and children, the situation of the dragon camp is almost the same, the general was born in a poor family, and won the trust of the generals and soldiers in the army, there are few nobles in the army, and there are few nobles in the army as soldiers. Now that the roots are rotting and the leaves are rotting, a fire is needed to burn the rotten wood. ”

Ning Changqing replied: "The soldiers are up, the world is in chaos, this time they compromised, thinking that if Lin Da Steward goes north, they will definitely be able to control the situation in the north, but they really underestimate the children of the Huang family, the Huang family is loyal to the martyrs, only loyal to His Majesty, the three inspectors Feng Jiucan may not be the most loyal to His Majesty, but he regards Wu Weihou as the only confidant in his life, and anyone who wants to persecute the Huang family is his great enemy for a long time." If Feng Jiucan didn't want to meddle in the affairs of the DPRK and China in order to protect himself in troubled times in the past, now he is forced to break with Erhu. Coupled with Concubine Shu's father's family, as long as Your Majesty provokes them, it is difficult to say who will kill the deer in the end. ”

Emperor Youwu listened to it and sighed: "If there is no Changqing, I am afraid that I will be the one who dies early, my original intention was to let the one in the south go north, you strongly opposed it so that I did not make a mistake, this hidden sword I still have to hide, and when they are careless, it will be unsheathed, and they will be caught off guard by killing them, but the two tigers are powerful, I am afraid that they will tear their faces in order to protect themselves, if the second battalion of the dragon and tiger is plotting chaos, they are willing to bear the infamy, and my Qilin Wei is definitely not their opponent." I am afraid that within three days, they will break through the defensive line and enter the palace. What's more, today's Kirin Guard is not the Kirin Guard of the past. ”

"Your Majesty is worried, and Changqing has also thought about it, if it is possible, the two tigers have already forced Your Majesty to abdicate and choose another puppet to take charge, and they have actually missed the opportunity after waiting for a long time. Now His Majesty is no longer young and ambitious, although the wealthy family has the influence of the government, but the good ministers of the court are also in the world in various places, knowing that His Majesty's situation is like walking on thin ice, as long as His Majesty has the world in his heart, Weichen believes that the sky will not be negative. ”

"The heavens will not be negative. Emperor Youwu muttered, and suddenly laughed and said, "A good sky will not be defeated!

"Weichen has a plan, I said before that I invited someone to come to the court, she is really a long-lived person, and she ranks among the top ten in the world in terms of martial arts, if she makes a move, even if she is a general, it will be difficult to stop her edge. The two tigers want Lin to steward the northern army, the northern army will kill Lin Tingfeng, and the children of the Huang family will be loyal and martyred, and they will be able to guard the pass for His Majesty for three years! Within three years, Your Majesty will kill the seven wolves in addition to the two tigers, and then reorganize the three armies to quell the chaos in southern Xinjiang, and then it will be the time when I am resurrected in Great Xia, and the civil and military officials want to change this day, and they want to change the lord of this mountain and river again, and Your Majesty will send them a beacon fire in the world, and after life and death, they will exchange for a pure land!"

"After life and death, change to the pure land, this world, this world really needs a beacon fire, I want to kill all the civil and military officials, I want to destroy their nine clans, whoever dares to mess with my Great Xia Kingdom in ancient times will be killed. Youwu Emperor Bing Baiyu tightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, he walked in the palace and the sword did not leave his body, even if he was in the court, the demon slaying sword was also like a shadow, only by holding this sword, he felt lonely himself, and grasped a trace of strength.

From being a young man who didn't know anything to now worrying about the world and hating the Manchu Dynasty, Emperor Youwu recalled the past, and the hand holding the sword became more and more forceful.

Ning Changqing said again: "The emperor's angry corpses are all over the field, and Great Xia needs a Ming monarch like His Majesty, who is weak and incapable of Wang Ranlan." ”

"Do you know how the people at the border are now, the orphan daughter of the Li family waited for the stability of the court, so she was brought into the palace to be accompanied by Yu'er. Emperor Youwu's words changed, and he thought of the loyal Li family, and he was touched.

"The thirteen cities in the north fell, and the demon army did not stop killing, but made the north from the officials to the common people, with great ambitions to die on the battlefield. As long as Your Majesty does not listen to slander and kills the guards of the pass, the north will not be lost, and I will be reborn like a phoenix in time. Ning Changqing replied slowly.

Emperor Youwu smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that although there are many talents in the world, the court does not cherish them, and many people in the world think that I am mediocre and incompetent, but they have not thought that I am also powerless." If one day, I can regain the power of the three armies and punish all the rebellious ministers and thieves, I will issue an order to seek merit, regardless of their origins and talents, the capable can occupy prominent positions, and the incompetent will not be reused even if they are the children of famous families! In the end, all aristocratic officials who injured children and robbed the people's daughters were guilty of adultery, regardless of their official position, and they would be killed at worst, and cut off their roots at the lightest. If they don't have the people's desire to ask for their lives, what use do I want them to have! If they dare to abuse their power for personal gain and endanger the innocent people, it will not be too much to cut them with a thousand knives!"

Ning Changqing just smiled lightly and did not answer.

Emperor Youwu stopped talking, just quietly looked at the sky in the distance.
