Chapter 22: The Three New Heavenly Pillars
"Your Highness, Your Highness, something is wrong."
Luo Yucai ran into Liu Mu's new look, and was given the name Bixiao Palace's original residence by Nanping.
"You'd better have something important, or you won't want to get out of me intact today!"
Liu Mu got up irritably, grabbed his hair that was already messy and blew up, and looked at Luo Yucai with a smile.
Luo Yucai was shaken by the gaze, swallowed his saliva, and replied: "Your Highness, it is really a matter of 100,000 urgent, the three of Zi, Ling, and Ghost have besieged the capital with an army of 60,000, and asked Your Majesty to hand over the pigs and scorpions, otherwise they will attack the city." β
"What?"
"Didn't I ask you to send a message to Purple to tell him that the kite is safe and sound with me, so that he doesn't have to worry?!"
Liu Mu was sober in an instant, his expression was not good, and his eyes were scrutinized.
"Your Highness, I swear in the name of Emperor Zhenwu, I will definitely send a message to Zichuan."
"Not only that, but I was afraid that there would be an accident on the way, so I sent two messengers."
Looking at Luo Yucai, who raised three fingers and swore by believing in the true god, Liu Mu chose to believe it, because although Luo Yucai is not in tune, he is not good at learning arts, and he is greedy for money and lustful, but his belief in himself is first-class piety.
"Since it's not you who has a problem here, it's that someone deliberately blocked the news and didn't let Zi know."
"I'll go to Zi now, and you go to Your Majesty to explain."
Liu Mu hurriedly walked out with a big coat, and was hugged by Luo Yucai's trouser leg, "Your Highness, you might as well take my life, purple they are tantamount to rebellion, how can you let me explain!" β
"Wouldn't it be nice to use what you are best at making up nonsense, how did you fool Your Majesty at the time to make you a national teacher, how can you fool now."
"Remember, you and I are grasshoppers on the same rope now, and you can't live if I die."
Liu Mu threw up his sleeves and left the palace, leaving Luo Yucai, who wanted to cry without tears.
β¦β¦
"Purple, ghost, spirit, do you three know what you are doing now, do you know the consequences of doing this?"
The guards on the city wall shouted to the three of them under the protection of layers of shields.
The ghost stepped forward with the glaive knife in his left hand and an iron halberd in his right hand.
"Lao Li, why did you become so small after not seeing you for a while? Don't worry, I won't throw you with a halberd. β
"Ghost, I can believe your words to really have a ghost, don't think I don't know what you're thinking, as long as I remove the shield, your iron halberd will immediately pierce me, it's really blind to your honest appearance."
"Lao Li, I said one last time, all I asked for was the pig and the scorpion, as long as these two people were handed over, I would withdraw my troops on the spot, and afterwards I would ask Your Majesty for guilt, and I would have no complaints if I wanted to kill or kill me."
Purple held a spear in his hand and drove his horse forward, with a determined look on his face, like a lone wolf looking for prey on the snowfield, tenacious and fierce.
"Purple, what madness are you, you're just a fool who can't even protect your own woman, and you're called a supernatural spear god in vain."
"What if I killed the kite, what can you do to me? If you don't accept you to kill me, I'm standing here to move, I'm your grandson. β
Dressed in brown armor, the scorpion walked up to the castle tower with the palace guards, with disdain on his face, and used words to stimulate purple to attack.
And Purple was just as he thought, filled his chest with anger, waved his hand and ordered the siege of the city.
Ling stepped forward and grabbed Zi, with a solemn look on his face.
"Purple, you have to think about it, once we attack the city, we will really become rebels, and there will be no place for us in the south."
"Spirit, ghost, I am very happy and touched that you two can come to help me."
"But, this is my own business, it has nothing to do with you, don't interfere, leave quickly, don't miss the good future."
"Zi, you are really a mother-in-law, if Ling and I were afraid of this, we would not have rushed to end the training opportunity to come to the capital to support you."
"Isn't it just to kill the scorpions and pigs in the city and kill them, and be afraid of a bird!"
The ghost threw the halberd in his hand at the scorpion, but was blocked by the guarded city gate guard, Lao Li, who sent shield soldiers, and pierced several shields in a row, until it was two inches away from the tip of the scorpion's nose.
"The archers shoot me, and I will hang the three of them to the city today, so that they will taste all the torture in the world before they die."
Click, click.
The archers on the walls stood behind the shieldmen, pulled their bowstrings tight, and waited for the order to fire.
"Give me..."
The scorpion waved his hand and was about to give an order, but was stopped by Liu Mu, who hurried over, "This prince sees who dares to move, are you ready to be the enemy of my Nan Thirteen?" β
With the inner core being replaced by Liu Mu, Nan Si, the thirteenth prince of the southern kingdom, enjoyed the same treatment, especially when he was just named a five-grade Danshi, and was promoted to a third-grade in just a few days.
"Your Highness the Thirteenth, why do you want to protect the rebels? Did you instruct them to do all this? Do you want to usurp the throne? β
The scorpion faction guards surrounded Liu Mutuan, and they had the potential to make a move.
"Scorpion, Hugh is talking nonsense, this is a grudge between you and me, what does it have to do with Your Highness!"
"The ladder, rush the car, follow me up the well."
Ziyue got off his horse, took the iron shield, and hurried towards the city wall with the siege team.
"Purple, stop, the scorpion doesn't dare to do anything to me, the kite is also safe and sound with me, someone has ulterior motives to stop the message I sent to you."
"Temple... Your Highness, you... Are you telling the truth? β
The iron shield in Zi's hand fell to the ground with a clatter, slamming into the surface of his feet, but he was unconscious, and his gray eyes regained their brilliance.
"Nature is true."
"Trust me, Purple, once you attack the city, the matter will really be irreparable."
"Redemption? Your Highness the Thirteenth, you are a little too naΓ―ve, do you think that Your Majesty will tolerate the generals who are leading the troops to return to the capital without permission? What's more, they have to attack the city in columns. β
As if hearing a big joke, the scorpion looked up to the sky and laughed, and bent down with laughter.
"If I'm naΓ―ve or you're stupid, you'll know right away!"
Looking at Luo Yucai, who ran up from the stairs of the city wall with a yellow silk in his hand, Liu Mu put his mind at ease, his expression relaxed, and he yawned.
"Your Highness, give."
"Edict~"
Liu Mu took the scroll and shouted loudly, and everyone knelt down in unison, a large piece of black and blue.
"Holy Word, the three generals of Purple, Spirit, and Ghost are secretly transferred back for the defense of Kyoto, so there is no need to make a fuss."
"In addition, the three pillars of heaven, Yan, Sumire, and He are old and have written many times to beg for bones.
"And, the three generals of Purple, Spirit, and Ghost have made great achievements, enough to be ranked among the pillars of heaven, and they are also allowed today, and they will be enshrined in the dynasty, and they will be entitled!"
"Thank you, Lord Longen, long live your majesty, long live, long live!"
The three of them got up and explained to the deputy general that they were about to enter the city, but they were secretly stopped by Liu Mu with gestures.
"Are you sure it's not a conspiracy? On the surface, they were rewarded, but in fact, they were tricked into the city and ambushed? β
"My Highness, who am I, I am the ancestor of deception, and I can see at a glance who is not deceiving."
"What's more, I have dedicated all the Ten Great Treasures that we have worked hard to refine a few days ago and are ready to give Your Majesty a birthday gift, so that Your Majesty will be happy and will no longer pursue this matter."
"Well done, thank you for your hard work, then Dan is gone, and then refine, anyway, there is still time."
Liu Mu patted Luo Yucai on the shoulder, and there was no heartache in his heart that the elixir that he had worked hard to refine and wanted to use to please Nanping was now sent out.
Don't say one, it's ten, for the sake of purple, Liu Mu is also willing to do it.
"Open the gates."
Liu Mu personally went out to take the three people of Zi into the city, and went to the main hall with them to be sealed, the whole process was unimpeded and excessive, Nanping only said two simple words, and he was impatient to drive a few people away and go to the harem.
"You kid, I can't wait to see what my beloved has to say to you."
Looking at Zi, who was looking at him frequently and wanting to speak, Liu Mu shook his head amusedly, and walked towards Bixiao Palace with him.
