Chapter 349: Winter has arrived
That day, it was cold and windy.
Ji Chengying and Tang Xiaohao dug up the frozen soil on the surface of the grassland with a knife, and then dug a pit with their hands to bury the little girl.
Ji Chengying kept crying, crying silently.
The little girl died, but it remained in his heart forever.
Ji Chengying carefully took the jerky given to him by the little girl into his arms and pressed it with his hand.
Then, the little emperor actually knelt in front of the small tomb.
"Donkey," Ji Chengying said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to remember this place, you help me remember, remember the place where this child is buried."
Tang Xiaohao nodded and said, "Yes."
Ji Chengying knelt there for a long time, he was sad, he was also thinking, and he was still remembering.
Everything that happened after leaving the imperial city gave him a different understanding of the world of Jiuyuan.
It turns out that this world is different from what he imagined.
Whether it is the creatures that were sealed in their bodies, or the defense of Hacha City, or the sealing bone words who could take his life anytime and anywhere, but bowed down to him and sent him back to Huayuan.
Everything is beyond Ji Chengying's cognition.
By the way, there is also the colt who kneels beside him at this moment.
This is the first scumbag in the Shendu, the most famous gentleman of the Dachang Dynasty, should be able to become the pillar of the country, right?
Ji Chengying looked at Tang Xiaohao, just a glance, and he gave up this idea again.
He knew very well that Tang Xiaohao had no interest in the affairs of the court.
Then, Ji Chengying left.
Tang Xiaohao led the horse and stood there, watching the carriage go away, and then turned to look at the small tomb.
At this time, a man and a horse came from a distance, and Tang Xiaohao found that it was Dugu Yiyi, the lone soldier who had long been separated from them.
Dugu rode a horse to Tang Xiaohao, hugged his fists and said, "Donkey, it's been a long time."
Tang Xiaohao looked at the direction of Ji Chengying's convoy: "You're here to maintain your so-called balance again?" This time it's to escort the prince?"
"It's the emperor," Dugu corrected, "I was asked to secretly escort the emperor back to Beijing, if I meet anyone who is unfavorable to the emperor on the way, there will be no mercy, with me, don't worry."
Tang Xiaohao pointed to Hacha City again: "So, you also know what happened in Hacha City, and you also know what the bone hunter did to seal the bones, right?"
Dugu was silent, and his eyes fell on the small grave bag: "Actually, you and I are the same as this child, there is no difference in nature, we are just ants."
Tang Xiaohao smiled, his face full of disdain: "Claiming to be righteous and maintaining the so-called bullshit balance is really hypocritical."
Dugu Yiyi corrected again: "The lone soldier has never been righteous, not in the past, not now, and will not be in the future. There is no one or organization in the world who is completely righteous, not in the past, not now, and not in the future. Horse, you are not a completely righteous person, you also have a dark side, but you are a little better than ordinary people...... There is no such thing as absolute goodness in this world."
"That's right," Tang Xiaohao turned over and got on his horse, "Is there anything else you want to give me?"
Dugu hugged his fists: "That's all I say, take care of the horse."
Tang Xiaohao hesitated, but still clenched his fists in return, and then looked in the direction of Hacha City, his eyes were full of determination.
Tang Xiaohao patted the horse away, and Dugu watched him go away, so he turned his horse's head and chased in the direction of the convoy.
One left and one right, one south and one north.
The so-called golden and jade good words are sometimes the opposite.
ββ
The six-part assembly was reconvened, and Feng Guyan asked the patriarchs in a mocking manner, since the old clan king had been resurrected, could he become the clan king of the Torth tribe again?
While Feng Guyan asked angrily, he looked at Gurke who was still sitting on the throne of the clan king.
The chair that Gurke was sitting on didn't mean anything, although it was carved with the totems of the six tribes of the Torsi tribe, but it was not as comfortable as Nanrong Qufeng, the Taishi chair of the military department
γ
Zabubo of the Gutong Department and Wu Du of the Kulun Department were the first to get up, knelt down and bowed, indicating their attitude.
Then there was Antai of the Kharcha Department and Manxibo of the Dzungar Department, followed by Mantegar.
If Shandan was here at this time, she would not kneel, because she already knew there was something wrong with it.
Gurke also knelt down: "Father, the child has thrown the armor of the clan king in the earthen city of Zalank."
Feng Guyan walked up to Antai and stretched out his hand.
Antai immediately took out the white ring and put it on for Feng Guyan with his own hands.
She thought it was a return to its original owner, but she didn't know that it was a change of hands.
Feng Guyan bypassed Gurke, who was kneeling on the ground, and sat directly on the chair: "You don't need to worry, I will order someone to retrieve the armor. I want to know now, where is my daughter, who I haven't seen for more than ten years, my princess Baomeng?"
Gurke immediately informed Bao Meng, Shandan, and Δerda of the fact that they had led their troops to Yintian Lake.
A smile appeared on Feng Guyan's face: "Good strategy! Gurke, did you arrange it?"
Gurke said truthfully, "It's not a ploy of his sons, it's a horse."
"Pony?" Feng Guyan was still smiling, "The princess is married to a good man. Antai, you immediately pass the Eagle Book to the princess, and order her to completely destroy the Bone Hunter Gate and leave no one alive."
Don't leave a living mouth? Antai was stunned for a moment, it was obvious that this was an extinction. In her opinion, the resurrected old clan king is unloading the mill and killing the donkey.
Is this appropriate?
An Tai immediately said, "Clan King, the Bone Hunter is a heretical sect, will this be an enemy of the Heterodox? There are a lot of talented people in the different realms, and I fear that they will be against you."
Feng Guyan disagreed: "Antai, when you were the commander of the Su Guard in the past, I regarded you as a confidant, because you are the most loyal person around me. The reason why I came back from the dead was not the credit of the bone hunters, but the favor of the Nine Heavens gods, who not only deceived me, but also killed my two sons!"
Feng Guyan told the so-called truth, which shocked the people present.
Antai raised his eyes and looked at Feng Gu Yan, "The clan king, the eldest prince and the second prince were killed by the bone hunters?"
Feng Guyan nodded: "This is what the Nine Heavens God told me personally, and it is the so-called common anger of people and gods."
After speaking, Feng Guyan lowered his head.
Everyone present thought that Feng Guyan was mourning in silence for the two princes who died tragically, and they all bowed their heads.
As everyone knows, Feng Guyan is actually laughing secretly. He's been waiting for this scene for years, but what follows is the best part of this scene.
Feng Guyan slowly raised his head and said, "Do you know how the Northwest, the Guran Division, and the Zalank Department were destroyed?"
Everyone except Gurke was shaking their heads.
Gurke was still lying there, covered in sweat.
Feng Guyan looked at Gurke: "It was also done by the bone hunters, and those damned bone hunters not only killed the people of our Rouyuan, but also deceived my filial little son, using the kindness of my son Gurke to cover up their crimes."
What do you mean? Except for Zabubo and Wuduyu, everyone else looked at Gurke.
Feng Guyan covered his face with one hand and lowered his voice: "The bone hunter deceived my son that he could resurrect me as long as he sacrificed his life for nine days, so my son let them attack the people of the tribe."
As soon as these words came out, Mantegarh immediately looked at Gurke, first surprised, then his eyes full of anger.
Antai and Man Xibo were so shocked that they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.
Zabbo and Wolduyu didn't dare to look up, because the two of them were in the know, and they even planned to get a piece of the pie afterwards - to get a panacea for longevity from the bone hunters.
Feng Guyan got up and walked up to Gurke and helped him up: "My good son, filial son, in order to be able to resurrect me, although he did stupid things, filial piety moved the heavens, and the gods of the Nine Heavens sent a miracle to resurrect me."
Although Gurke got up with his father's support, he couldn't stand at all.
Feng Bone Yan added: "What the bone hunters have done is the anger of the gods and the gods, and it must be completely eradicated, this is
A righteous act!"
"Yes." Everyone said in unison.
Zabubo and Wuduyu were already soaked with sweat.
Feng Guyan walked out of the tent, turned his back to everyone, and looked at the gray sky.
He liked the sky, dead gray, without sunlight, dark and cold.
This is the purpose of Feng Guyan to convene the Six Ministries Conference, to tell the truth of the matter, and to make Gurke the target of public criticism.
Although Feng Guyan claimed that Gurke was a filial son, and the reason why he made a mistake was to resurrect his father, the so-called ritual had no meaning and sacrificed thousands of people in vain.
What makes Feng Guyan the most proud is the four words "filial piety touches the sky".
When he spoke, he tried to restrain himself from laughing.
Gurke was still standing there, with his back to the other five patriarchs, not daring to turn around.
The old king was indeed "resurrected", and the stupid little prince, though standing, was actually dead.
From this moment on, his name will be engraved on the pillar of shame in the history of Johora, and he will become an eternal sinner.
The people who survived this war that should never have happened hated him, and Mantegar, who had fought so hard to lead him out of the siege, was even more eager to chew him to pieces.
Not only did she lose her clan, but she also lost her sister Asawarin.
Gurke had no choice but to apologize for his sins with death.
"You continue to discuss how to appease the people, and I will go to the Tower of Heaven to see the High Priest," Feng Guyan slowly left, "We will lead the Torth Department through the current difficulties, because the cold winter is coming."
Yes, winter is coming.
After Feng Guyan left, Zabubo of the Bone Tong Department and Wu of the Kulun Department were looking for excuses to leave, and they were unwilling to have anything to do with Gulke.
When leaving, the two looked at each other and tacitly agreed that they would not admit to knowing.
Antai, Manxibo, and Mantegar stood and looked at Gurke.
Gurke finally turned around, lowered his head and said, "Yes, what my father said is right, I do know that everything is planned by the bone hunter Chu Yan, and all I need to do is cooperate."
Unable to control herself any longer, Mantegar stepped forward and grabbed Gulke, but did not know what to say, for she was so choked up that she could not say a word again.
Man Xibo stepped forward and gently grabbed Mantegar's hand, and Antai also stepped forward and grabbed her other hand.
Mantegarh finally let go, turned around and left with Man Xibo's support, but after walking out of the tent, he finally broke down, standing in the cold wind and breaking down and crying.
Hearing the cry, Gulke drew his knife and prepared to kill himself, but was snatched away by Antai.
Antai raised his hand and gave Gurke a slap, and before Gurke could stand firm, he then gave Gurke a punch.
Gulke was knocked to the ground, he leaned back on the edge of his chair, not saying a word, blood slowly running down the corners of his mouth.
"Your death can't buy back tens of thousands of lives." Antey snapped Gurke's saber and turned to leave.
At least filial piety touched the heavens, and the gods still resurrected my father, and as for the sins, let me bear them alone. Gurke leaned back in his chair and watched the snowflakes drift outside the tent.
The little prince, who did not want to be the king of the clan, still did not realize his stupidity.
