Chapter 104: Maybe You Forgot.

…………

Zhaodu, the royal capital of Suchuan, is also the last capital of the Ming clan to survive.

The royal family originated here, flourished here, and weakened here.

When did the Ming clan become the royal family of Suchuan and become the son of heaven in charge of Suchuan, there is no specific classic to verify this matter, because of the divine fall five hundred years ago.

The disappearance of the god lord is not only a change in the pattern of Suchuan, but also the king at that time and many precious classics that record the history of the royal family are hidden in the corners of history.

Although the classic records are incomplete, the Suchuan people have been passed down from generation to generation, since they were children, the beginning of the family, and the king above is the Ming family.

It is conservatively estimated that there has been a thousand years, no less than a thousand years of subtle subtlety, and in the bones of the people they already know, accept, and admit who is far above.

Even after the fall of the gods five hundred years ago, the god lord disappeared, the king of the royal family gradually died early, and every time a new king was succeeded, at least in the territory of the imperial capital, the rule of the royal family was still deep-rooted.

Outside the royal capital with high jade brick walls, the majestic prime minister with white wings behind him stood in front of the hundred officials, his face was calm, and he occasionally glanced at the thin white-bearded old man next to him, revealing a trace of disdain, and a trace of implied hatred.

The one with wings behind him is none other than the prime minister in Zhaodu, Scarlet Sky, who is also the patriarch of the Yueling clan.

The white-bearded old man with a thin figure is the contemporary Tianqimen master, the high priest of the royal capital, in charge of all Shinto sacrifices, rituals and laws.

The reason why the king has avoided the court for a long time is that he left the imperial capital, went to a small place to weave fire to find an ethereal god, and the two of them very tacitly did not choose to gather civilians with great fanfare to welcome the 'missing' return of the king.

The edict needs stability, and they need to know that the young monarch is working day and night, and the diligent government who has not slept for several nights is looking at his own land.

Lu Ming got off the boat, took Linglong's hand and walked forward, ignoring the respectful salutations of the two of them that were either respectful or suppressed in a tone of lesson, bypassing the two who were in the same situation, he walked to the back of a young man wrapped in dark blue iron armor and stopped, stretched out his hand to help the figure kneeling on one knee and said.

"Ziyuan, follow me, go back to the palace!"

Following the high priest and the prime minister, Zi Yuan, who was almost as transparent as the Divine Blood Iron Guard, was slightly stunned, and his face subconsciously showed a look of panic, and before he could calm down his very depressed mood, the young monarch was already on the way to the palace.

Your Majesty, it seems that something is different......

Perhaps, it will not be the edict capital of the Yueling clan in the future.

Thinking like this in his heart, Zi Yuan quickly glanced at the stunned High Priest and Scarlet Heaven, and then immediately turned around and trotted towards the palace with the anxious Iron Guard.

……

"Your Majesty, what is this?"

Behind, the high priest looked at the non-existent figures of the two people and the commotion caused by the iron guard's walking, frowned slightly, and subconsciously asked the disciple beside him.

"After playing outside for a long time, I may miss the environment of the palace more."

“…… Maybe. ”

"What maybe." Scarlet Tian got up, snorted coldly, and looked at the old man: "Every day, I know what kind of illusory things you do to bewitch the king, and you don't do anything serious." ”

The high priest was furious: "Scarlet Heaven, don't spew blood, okay, the government is controlled by you, you will only play right and wrong, and even want to restrict the behavior of the king, what does the king do, how can it rely on me?" ”

"I don't think your Yueling clan has long harbored evil intentions and is doing that unsubordinate!"

"High Priest, you're very good!" The scarlet weather made his wings tremble behind him, and he glared at the high priest angrily, "You can use the god lord who has not appeared for five hundred years to fool the king, and cooperate with the king to leave the edict capital without permission, in case something happens to the king outside, you will be to blame!" ”

"One day, I'm going to abolish your position of eating dry food except for fooling people!"

"You!" The high priest Whitebeard was so angry that he almost tore off a section.

Just when the two of them were glaring angrily, mocking and arguing with each other, on the top of the fishing boat, the Buddha seal wearing a gray robe walked down, quietly looked at the two people who were on fire, stood beside the two, and sighed slightly.

He seemed to be in the state of mind of the Zhaodu that he left at that time, uncomfortable, but he had to do it.

Tianqimen has long served Shinto, and has also won the trust of successive kings, and was the greatest power in the royal city before the monarch succeeded to the throne.

It stands to reason that the new monarch will continue to trust Tianqimen after ascending the throne, but the new monarch is not a direct descendant of the first king, but a border sideline, and when he entered the imperial capital, he took his father's cronies to protect the Yueling clan.

The young and less than ten years old Junshang, who has been fighting with foreign tribes on the border all the year round to win the same treatment as humans, the result can be imagined, under the unconscious subconscious reliance of the young Junshang, Scarlet Sky has become the most trusted subordinate.

The Yueling Clan replaced the god-blood iron guards who had guarded the royal city in the past dynasties, and the Scarlet Sky replaced the powerful Tianqimen.

And he, the Buddha seal, was coincidentally sandwiched in the middle.

Not people inside and out.

I don't know if it's right or wrong to come back this time.

The gray Tianqimen robe attracted the attention of the two, and the high priest was the first to react, looking at the much older cheeks of the Buddha seal, he first sighed slightly and felt distressed, and before he could say anything, Scarlet Tian had already stepped forward to grab the hand of the Buddha seal, and looked his whole body up and down.

"Buddha seal! Is it really you?! ”

"After all these years, are you okay?"

Scarlet Tian looked at the Buddha seal with red eyes, his palms trembled slightly, but he grabbed her for fear that he would disappear from his sight in the next second.

Buddha Zhan stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her, smiling and comforting, "I'm doing business as usual, what about you?" ”

"I, I'm fine too!"

Scarlet Tian's voice paused, saying what he thought, got up from the Buddha's arms, and said seriously; "This time, I won't allow anyone to take you away from me!"

"I'm already the prime minister, and no one can stop the matter between you and me!"

The cold gaze hit the high priest, and the joy of looking at the gray robe just now was gone, especially when he saw that the Buddha seal was still reaching out to hug the woman, the high priest was even more angry and trembled.

His most proud disciple is regarded as a disciple cultivated by his successor, but he regards the Tao as nothing.

"Reverse ...... Evil creature! ”

The word rebel was changed to an evil obstacle, and the high priest had already regarded this most proud disciple as a heretic from the bottom of his heart, and after scolding, he left directly.

"Teacher!"

Buddha Seal called the high priest, and when he was about to persuade the teacher, he was pulled by Scarlet Sky again and stopped in place.

"Buddha Seal, I promise you, Tianqimen will not perish, you can rest assured."

"I will also let you succeed you as the new high priest and take charge of Tianqimen, and his ancient feudal decay should pass away with his Shinto!"

Seeing that the more Scarlet Sky spoke, the more outrageous it became, and the figure of the teacher walked faster and faster until he disappeared out of sight, the Buddha Seal suddenly felt his head big, and hurriedly pulled Scarlet Sky and asked her not to palpitate. ,

"Scarlet Sky, don't be in a hurry yet."

"I went to see my mentor once, and I had something to say to him."

"He's been blocking things between the two of us, what are you going to do with him," Scarlet Sky said he didn't understand, "Have you forgotten that he expelled you from Tianqimen?" ”

"Have you forgotten how he treated you and me in the past?"

"Do you still expect that rotten and stubborn old man to agree to a matter between you and me?!"

Buddha Seal closed his eyes, tried to calm his mind, and said in a deep voice: "I am looking for a teacher because of the matter of the gods. ”

"God? What do you mean? ”

"The god lord has reappeared in Suchuan, the pattern of Suchuan is about to be greatly changed, and Tianqimen ......"

"Who is the Divine Master? Where did the god come from? ”

"It's the girl you just brought over."

………………

On the city wall more than 20 meters high, Lu Ming pulled Linglong to walk in front, and introduced the impression of this thousand-year-old loneliness in his memory as he walked, entered the palace gate at the age of nine, ascended the throne in half a month, eradicated the old party of the first king within three years, and supported the Yueling clan as his right-hand man.

Every palace gate in the imperial capital has the shadow of the activities of the young king.

Finally, when approaching Zhengyang Gate, he stopped.

Zhengyang is the king's dormitory, and it is also the place where the previous dynasties were governed.

The young monarch vowed to revitalize the royal family, so in the third year after his accession to the throne, he moved his dormitory to this palace for government affairs.

The front door of the government and politics, the harem is to rest at night, several nights of sleepless, conscientious, under the guidance of the prime minister Scarlet, this city finally has the atmosphere of the royal capital of Suchuan, compared to the most prosperous Pingting in the south.

Looking at the celadon Dabai and letting go of the girl's hand, Lu Ming turned to look at Zi Yuan, the leader of the Divine Blood Iron Guard, who had always kept a distance all the way.

"Ziyuan, if I remember correctly, in the second year after I ascended the throne, I was bedridden because of the illness of my predecessor Iron Guard, and finally resigned from the position of Commander, and then in the Divine Blood Iron Guard, because you are the youngest and have the highest merits, you received this errand."

"Yes!"

"But after you received the position of capital commander, everything you encountered seems to be a little different from what you imagined, you didn't guard the palace gate like the iron guard of the previous king, and you didn't want to fight with the vassal states like you thought about making meritorious achievements, and you rarely even saw the figure of me, the new king."

"Fighting against the Yueling clan who have been fighting with foreign tribes on the border all the year round, guarding the palace, the king has also chosen the personal guards given by his father, and your iron guards, as the people closest to the king in all dynasties, seem to be gradually becoming transparent."

Overlooking the panoramic view of the capital from a high position, his eyes fell on the gorgeous gate of the previous imperial capital, Lu Ming looked at the city gate that there was no Buddha seal and high priest or even the scarlet gate, and sighed slightly: "If I am not mistaken, the king's personal guards are doing the work of guarding the city gate, doing some work that should have been done by officials to inspect the entry of civilians and merchants. ”

Glancing at the gate of the city with a vague gaze, the subordinates who were gradually corroded and bloody in the shade under the tall city wall came into view, Zi Yuan bowed his head slightly, he was a little confused about what this monarch meant.

Since, if you don't understand, don't do anything.

The king bypassed the scarlet sky of his cronies, bypassed the high priest who was in charge of the calendar and believed in Shinto, and called him over alone, he must have his own things to do.

The Divine Blood Iron Guard only needs to do it, just like these five hundred years of days and nights, ups and downs, and has never taken half a step back.

"The Divine Blood Iron Guard is the King's Iron Guard, the sharpest spear and the strongest shield of the King!"

After pondering for a long time, Zi Yuan never spoke, Zi Yuan lowered his head and said the words that he had remembered in his heart on the first day of entering the Iron Guard, his voice was loud and tenacious.

The guards need to tell their king that they don't want to see the gates.

"Haha!"

Laughing a little wantonly, Lu Ming stretched out his hand to help this Du Tong, who was really not impressed, but lacked the most respect and humility in his bones, straightened the crooked armor for him because of kneeling on one knee, and said:

"The armor worn by the officials who watched the city gate did not fit well on the iron guards, and it did not look very good!"

Zi Yuan's eyes were slightly bright, with hope, and he listened to the king take out his jade pendant from his arms and hand it to himself, and continued, "The iron guard is the king's iron guard, it should be the duty of guarding the palace gate, and it should be the king's spear and shield!" ”

"From today!"

"I'll leave it to you!"

The jade pendant taken out of his arms still had a residual warmth, and the bright word was dazzling, scorching so hot that the blood in Ziyuan's whole body was surrounded, and his eyes were red for a while, and he immediately performed a rite that had been inherited for countless years.

"Your Majesty!"

"I ...... Woo~"

They all whimpered and couldn't speak, and the voice contained grievances, as if the injured child had finally received the attention of an adult to wrap up the wound.

It's obviously very sour, but I feel warm in my heart, full of strength to do it again.

"Go change your clothes, come out later, what I want to see is the iron guard, not the city guard." Patting Ziyuan's arm, Lu Ming came back to his senses, winked at the inexplicable Linglong, and then stepped forward to take her hand and walked into the gate of Zhengyang Palace, where he had stayed for the first half of his life.

The sound of the outstretched chain mail colliding together, and the guards trotted out of front of the palace gate, this time with lighter and more energetic steps than before.

The face was no longer tight, the corner of the mouth was cracked, Lu Ming pulled Linglong's arm and said with a smile: "Sister, how am I acting?" ”

"Is there a little bit of domineering and mighty, the appearance of a king?"

"Doesn't it look like that, great, very majestic?"

“……”

Linglong frowned and looked at the young man who was about to laugh crazy, and was speechless for a while, first a little stunned by the change in the face of this guy, and then felt that this was very familiar in her heart.

He......

Restraining the weird feeling in his heart, Linglong pulled Lu Ming to stop him, and seriously analyzed him: "If you laugh in front of me in the end, you really have a little, that feeling of a son of heaven." ”

"But I'm already laughing, so you just ignore it."

"What has happened cannot be ignored." Shaking his head, Linglong looked at Lu Ming, thinking about his serious expression, and couldn't help but smile: "We can only admit the facts, live in the moment, and see the distance clearly." ”

“…… Girl~"

"Huh?"

"You...... Where did you learn this? ”

Linglong replied as a matter of course: "What you said! ”

Lu Ming looked at the girl and blinked innocent eyes, "Why don't I remember?" ”

"Maybe you forgot~"
