Chapter 186: Xiao Zheng
After Xiao Yu placed Xiao Yuyi, he came out of the attic, walked straight to the door along the main axis of the inner city.
What should I do if I don't have money, there is a saying that poverty will change, or it can be called evil to the guts, in short, it is to do some business without capital.
Buying and selling without capital is naturally done in a place where no one is around.
Xiao Yu didn't stop until he walked outside the city of Julu City, and the unobstructed wind on the grassland howled, blowing the black robe on his body to the sound of hunting.
"It's murder again. Xiao Yu muttered, his voice was very soft, and it had been blown away by the wind just after exiting, leaving no trace.
The murderer will always kill him, and he doesn't know which day it will be his turn. Thinking of this, Xiao Yu unconsciously patted the broken array on his waist.
The white-clothed Bodhisattva Jin followed Xiao Yu silently with a sword box on his back, and after coming to Julu City, Xiao Yu knew that Wan Yan Hong would never only bring a little manpower on the surface, Yan Chi King's five hundred personal soldiers and iron cavalry, and more than a dozen Void Netherworld Realm cultivators and two Frost Realm cultivators, such a lineup is indeed worthy of the family background of Yan Chi King, the head of the Four Kings of Hou Jian.
Frost Realm cultivators, this is not the emptiness of the street, in the Grassland Royal Court, in addition to many grassland wizards in the Frost Realm who are empty of their souls, under the hands of Lin Yuan, the previous generation of Grassland King, the henchmen of the Frost Realm on the bright side are just Mu Bai.
This King Yan Chi sent two frost-crawling realm cultivators at once, although it was only the frost-crawling initial realm, it could not be regarded as something to be underestimated.
Since King Yan Chi has the pride of swallowing and building, he must first have the confidence not to be afraid of being supported to death. Regardless of whether the soldiers and horses go first, it can be seen from the number of cultivators who sit on this throne that although the cultivators are cultivating to be born, in the final analysis, except for the small wave of people on the top of the mountain, who can really be born? In the end, it is not in the muddy waters of the world.
Speaking of this Yan Chi King Wanyande, the throne is actually not inherited from the ancestors, if it is counted from the ancestors, although it is barely regarded as the queen of the clan, but in his generation it is no different from the commoners.
When Emperor Houjian was still in power, the large and small uprisings in various parts of Houjian were already one after another, and the children of the declining clan were involved in assessing the uprising and riots as a commoner, and after quelling the rebellion, he was appointed as a city and county commander, and since then he has changed from a white body to an official. Later, the first emperor died, the young lord was lonely and weak, the younger brother of the queen mother, the general Xiao Zheng seized power, the kings raised troops on the side of the Qing monarch, Wanyande rose up with the trend, scattered all the wealth to recruit troops and buy horses, and then followed the alliance of the kings to crusade against Xiao Zheng, who controlled the national government at that time.
After Wan Yan De took refuge in many princes and vassal kings, until he was thrown under the command of the previous Yan Chi King, the old Yan Chi King had no children under his knees, only one daughter, Wan Yan De was accepted by the old Yan Chi King as a son-in-law, and after the old Yan Chi King died of illness, Wan Yan De inherited the throne of Yan Chi in one fell swoop by virtue of many years of operation, and then took the opportunity to enter the land of the two states in the northeast after the other princes were fighting, and became the head of the four kings of Hou Jian in one fell swoop.
Such a character who originated in the market, but he can climb to the top step by step, so Xiao Yu has to pay attention to it from the bottom of his heart. Many things are simple to say, and they are only passing by in the history books, but the hardships and bitterness are only known to the people involved.
Xiao Yu turned his head abruptly and looked in the direction of the city gate of Julu City, at the end of the city gate, there was an old man walking alone, the old man was full of silver hair, gray robe and silver face, and he had a majestic aura.
What Xiao Yu didn't expect was that this time it was not King Yan Chi's people who came first, but the city lord of Julu City!
Xiao Yu stood still and didn't move, because he wasn't sure what the old man was going to do this time. The old man walked unhurriedly, and after a while, he had already walked in front of Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu saluted respectfully, "I've seen the city lord." ”
After looking at Xiao Yu up and down for a while, the Julu City Lord slowly took off the silver mask on his face, revealing a face that was already full of ravines, although he was old, he could also vaguely see the peerless demeanor of his youth, and the old man smiled faintly: "I heard that your name is Xiao Yu." ”
Xiao Yu nodded.
The old man smiled with a little relief, "Yes, you are very good, worthy of being a member of my Xiao family." ”
Xiao Yu was stunned, "Xiao family, didn't you ask the city lord for his name?"
The Julu City Lord stood with his hands in his hands, and a hint of remembrance appeared on his face, "Old man Xiao Zheng, if you talk about it carefully, Xiao Lie still has to call me a second uncle." It's just that this relative is very far away, and the two families broke off contact early. ”
The little smile that had just appeared on Xiao Yu's face suddenly froze.
Xiao Zheng, the uncle of Jianguo around 30 years ago, the younger brother of Empress Xiao, after the death of Emperor Jianxian, the young lord was lonely and weak, Xiao Zheng, the uncle of the country, appointed himself as a general to overwhelm the ten permanent servants, control the government, and became a veritable regent at that time. If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Zheng was anxious to cut the domain later, and when the foundation was stable, he wanted to abolish the young lord, depose the kings, and attract the kings of Houjian to enter King Qin, and the leader of the Demon Sect who originally supported Xiao Zheng disappeared at this time, and the five elders of the Demon Sect went their own way, so that the army of the kings of King Qin captured Shengjing in one fell swoop, then I am afraid that it will be Xiao Zheng sitting on the chair of Hou Jianlong today.
This is a figure who is only one step away from the throne, and in terms of power back then, he can almost be compared with Emperor Zheng.
Xiao Zheng seemed to know what Xiao Yu was thinking, and said softly: "It is the uncle of the current Emperor Houjian, Xiao Zheng who failed thirty years ago and escaped from Shengjing City in embarrassment. ”
Xiao Yu was slightly at a loss.
Thirty years ago, the Lord of Julu City came to Julu City.
Thirty years ago, Xiao Zheng escaped from Shengjing City.
Xiao Zheng sighed slightly: "The old man has been hiding for thirty years, hiding from the world to the cultivation world, the Xiao family of the later construction died because of me, only the old man is left, this time I heard that there is a kid in the Xiao family of Dazheng who went to the grassland, first became Lin Yuan's son-in-law, and then made a splash at the Biluo Lake Dialectical Conference, and then relied on the big boat of the Taoist Sect Autumn Leaves, and now it is based on the four parts of the grassland, and the Wang Tinghong Lady is divided into two grasslands, which really aroused the interest of the old man." I didn't expect that when the Xiao clan was almost wiped out in Houjian, the Da Zheng Xiao clan shined, and after Xiao Lie, there was Xiao Yu, I heard that you also have a younger brother named Xiao Jin, young and precocious?"
Xiao Yu nodded silently.
Xiao Zheng glanced at the Julu City behind him, and said leisurely: "The Julu Battle of the Western Chu Emperor made Julu City famous all over the world, and the former place where soldiers fought for is not reduced to such a point that no one wants? ”
Xiao Yu raised his head and said, "There will be so many people coming to the giant deer this time, there must be one or two people left." ”
Xiao Zheng glanced at Xiao Yu deeply, "I was already a very popular minister back then, why did I want to risk the disapproval of the world and abolish the emperor? Isn't it for this surname? Now I am dying, and the clansmen have also ended up with a full slaughter, and the Xiao family in the future will be your Xiao family." ”
Xiao Yu took it from his waist and held it in his hand.
The old man smiled, "Yes, Xiao Jiaerlang, how can you sit and eat the legacy of your ancestors? ”
