Chapter 231: Dragon and Tiger Qi, enthroned as a prisoner
Zhou Bai was arrogant and convincing, and his earth-shattering words were also listened to by the onlookers.
Is there really a clan that escaped here?
King Gui went to the throne seven days ago, and now the three southwestern provinces are fighting their own battles, and if there is a clan willing to come forward to unite people's hearts, this is also something that everyone wants to see.
The shopkeeper of Wanbin Lou is also undecided, although it is a little unbelievable, but looking at the temperament of his people and the elite of his guards, there is indeed some possibility.
He immediately hurriedly took Zhou Bai to a quiet and hidden special private room, where good tea was served, and then he respectfully asked, "Dare to ask if Zongzi has identity credentials?" ”
Zhou Bai bowed slightly, and unhurriedly took out the ancestral family heirloom of Zhu Jun: "In the southwest of the town of Qianguo Gongshi, there should be a royal family tree in the house for comparison, and the shopkeeper can go and ask the prince to make a decision." ”
The shopkeeper carefully took over the golden jade sect, this form is not a remote clan out of the lineage, even if there is no title, it is also a veritable son of the sect supported by the imperial court.
As soon as he confessed his guilt and walked outside, he turned back and asked, "Does Zongzi really have the heart to resist the Tartars?" ”
"As long as the Duke of Qian is still willing to admit that he is the Duke of the Great Yan Dynasty." Zhou Bai took a sip of tea and replied plausibly.
This actually means that whether my heart to resist Tartar is firm or not, it depends on whether you have the Duke of Qianguo.
Because in the three southwestern provinces, this prince has a lot of influence, and if Zhou Bai wants to do something, he must first convince him.
Today, since we can get in touch by chance, let's have a direct showdown, and time waits for no one.
After the shopkeeper left, Gao Hu, who was guarding outside, immediately came in and reported: "Young master, my identity is a ranger, and the brothers downstairs are even worse, but they are just ruffians on the street, but fortunately, our bodies are qualified." ”
"Don't worry about identity, it's right away." Zhou Bai didn't care, his identity was determined by heaven, and he didn't dare to go too far to let him be a dignified monarch of the country.
"You mean the Duke of Qianguo? Will the officials of the three southwestern provinces really support you? Gao Hu asked a little puzzled.
Zhou Bai smiled: "They need someone to carry the flag." ”
It was such a rough and simple method, and after an hour, Zhou Bai was able to meet the Duke of Qianguo in the most magnificent mansion in the city.
That Young Master Wang's name is Wang Ziyuan, and he is indeed the second son of the political envoy of Nanyun Province, and it is normal to put on a score in Changshui City.
However, Zhou Bai did not let him go, but took him with him, one is to better understand the situation in the three southwestern provinces, and the other is to serve as a bridge of communication with the government.
The situation is stronger than people, Wang Ziyuan saw that Zhou Bai was a clan, and when he came up, he said that he wanted to resist the Tartars and see the Duke of the Kingdom, but he was also very peaceful and did not make noise.
Only after getting Zhou Bai's permission, let his subordinate Hao Nu go home and inform him.
Zhumen embroidered households, Junyu carved walls, the southwest border of the town for a whole dynasty, fully shows what is the home of Zhongming Dingshi.
In the hall, Zhou Bai accepted the genealogy comparison of the Duke of Qianguo, and asked a few questions to confirm Zhu Junzhi's identity.
His face was neat and unsmiling, and after confirming the genealogy of the clan, he still said with a little apology: "Zongzi, please forgive the old man for offending, in fact, there are a lot of people who have pretended to be during this time. ”
Immediately afterwards, a white-bearded old Taoist wearing a Taoist robe walked out of the back of the hall, and Zhou Bai could see at a glance that something was wrong with this Taoist priest.
True repair? Is this mana?
Zhou Bai was calm on the surface, but his heart was full of waves, and he had traveled through experience many times and the identity of the deity's monk, so that he could basically determine that this small plane was a low spirit plane.
Even compared with the aura concentration of the plane of the Great Sui Dynasty, it is far inferior, and it should be said that it is difficult to enter the Dao and cultivate mana.
But the six senses of the soul keenly told him that this old Taoist had extraordinary power.
Just when the old way waved the dust and observed Zhou Bai with the essence in his eyes, Zhou Bai also used the Qi Lookout technique to observe his luck quietly.
At a cursory glance, the foreign transport is red and yellow, and the white gas gathers like flowing clouds, which seems to be quite a noble foreign transport weather.
But after Zhou Bai took a closer look, he found the clues.
It is not surprising that the natal light yellow, but there are also golden luck ups and downs between the natal and external transport layers, and these golden luck are very thin, and there is a shadow of a talisman hidden in it.
Obviously, it is not a naturally formed thing, it is condensed in the foundation of its own luck, what is this?
Just when Zhou Bai wanted to run the Qi Hope Technique with all his strength and inspect what this golden qi luck was, an invisible coercion rushed straight to the spirit platform, and a dragon and tiger roared in his ears.
The sudden change lasted for a moment, as if it was only to force back the investigation.
At this time, the essence in Lao Dao's eyes dissipated and returned to a turbid state, only to see him bow to Zhou Bai to express his apologies for visiting.
Then he didn't hide it, and said in a low voice: "The sect has the residual dragon qi on his body, and it should be the orthodox bloodline of the Great Yan Imperial Family." ”
Hearing this, the Duke of Qianguo stretched his eyebrows, and a little smile appeared on his depressed face: "Thank you, Heavenly Master." ”
Baihu Lao Dao and Qianguo Gong seem to have a very good relationship, and Zhou Bai is Zhu Yan's bloodline, so he didn't hide his words at all.
"Guogong must not mention the teachings of the Heavenly Master again, the real Zhang Tianshi has died for the continuation of the life of Dayan, and the old man is just an ordinary Taoist priest in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, how dare he call a Heavenly Master."
There is a lot of information between words, which is something that has not been touched on in Zhou Bai's memory and deduction.
Seeing that Zhou Bai was a little confused, Qian Guogong immediately stepped forward and introduced the two to each other.
"This is the son of Zhu Junzong, after the king of Jinchang County, and he is also the only clan in the three southwestern provinces who dares to stand up against the Tartars."
"This is the Lord of the Southwest of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the head of Yanghui Dao, who has made great efforts to sit in the southwest and maintain stability for my father."
After the introduction, the two greeted each other, but Yang Hui did not leave, but sat next to him, quietly listening to the conversation between Zhou Bai and Qian Guogong.
Sitting separately, the Duke of Qianguo looked at Zhou Bai with complicated eyes, and took the lead in speaking: "According to the information of this duke, you are no different from other clans that fled south, just a waste who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and is addicted to wine. ”
"So even if you fled to Changshui City, I didn't want to see you, but today...... It can only be said that the rumors are wrong. ”
Zhou Bai revealed a pair of calloused hands, and said solemnly: "Since the rise of Tatar from the north ten years ago, I have felt the fate in the dark, and then I began to practice martial arts diligently......
After an explanation that his face was not red and his heart was not beating, Qian Guogong and Yang Hui looked at each other, so to speak, ten years ago, you Zhu Jun knew that Da Yan was going to die?
Yang Hui, who knew some of the way of qi numerology, took the lead and said: "Guogong, it's not impossible, at the end of the dynasties, there were remnant dragons and luck Jedi counterattacks, but there are few successful ones. ”
"The tide can be saved, I am willing to help the heavens, and please help me!" Zhou Bai took advantage of the hesitation of Qianguo Gong and got up to sincerely ask.
After a moment of silence, the Duke of Qianguo personally helped Zhou Bai up, and said equally seriously: "If you are respected as a prisoner, do you dare to go to the front line?" If you really have the power to turn the tide and help the heavens to fall, then I will fully support it. ”
"Since you should follow the example of the previous emperor, you must defend every inch of land, and you will never retreat easily." Zhou Bai did not hesitate and responded decisively.
Of course, Qian Guogong liked this, but he still said it thoroughly: "If you are a desperate true dragon, then I should respect myself, but if you don't have this talent and luck, please be quiet and be a spiritual totem of resistance to Tartar." ”
"If you agree to this condition, three days later, you will ask Zongzi to be called the king of Jinchang County, that is, to supervise the throne."
"Okay, in the past three days, please ask the Duke of the Kingdom to allow me the right to act cheaply, but there are some anti-Tartar forces that need to be retracted."
Soon, the two sides reached a tacit understanding, but before Zhou Bai left, he then asked Yanghui Daoist to learn some information.
The identity was clear, and the Yanghui Dao people respected him a little more, and all kinds of secret questions were answered, allowing Zhou Bai to figure out the situation of the extraordinary power in this realm.
It turned out that Dayan had a supernumerary institution, the Longhu Mountain Heavenly Master's Mansion, and all the Heavenly Masters of the past dynasties had the edict of the Great Yan Emperor.
All the sneaky and demonic things in the world will be solved by the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
And the extraordinary power of the true cultivators of the Heavenly Master's Mansion is called the Dragon and Tiger Qi, which comes from the Great Yan Imperial Court.
In fact, it is the power of the system's luck, and by using the luck of the Great Yan for its own use, it can punish external evils and benefit itself.
This is somewhat similar to the system of the legal network, for example, if a monk enters a place where the legal network is dense, he will inevitably be suppressed for transcendent cultivation.
But the use of dragon and tiger qi is obviously superior, which can be used by individuals to interfere with reality.
In the main world, Zhou Bai could directly borrow the power of qi luck except for his own cultivation of the Mixed Yuan Qi Luck Daozang, and he had never seen other monks have such an ability.
I never thought that in a small plane that was conquered, there would be Taoist priests who could use dragon and tiger qi.
Yang Hui faced Zhou Bai's "curiosity" and directly demonstrated on the spot.
Their faces were solemn, their hands changed the tricks, and they pointed to the teacup on the table: "Dragon and Tiger Manifest Saint, broken!" ”
As if a trick, the intact teacup was torn apart under Yang Hui's finger.
didn't show much power, and others would definitely not be able to see any way, but Zhou Bai could see it clearly with the blessing of the Qi Lookout Technique.
When Yang Hui cast the spell, the phantom of the dragon and tiger talisman appeared on his palm for a moment, and then the dragon shape was gone, only to see the tiger shape fly out and hit the teacup.
It was just such a small Taoist technique, and Zhou Bai found that the hidden golden luck had been missing an obvious half-wisp.
It seemed that the restrictions were very large, but Zhou Bai still asked quietly: "If I want to learn, can the Taoist master teach me?" ”
Yang Hui shook his head and said: "The old Tao can't do anything, and the conferral can only be in the Heavenly Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain, where there is a stone carving of the dragon and tiger talisman given by heaven, but now Longhu Mountain has fallen." ”
"And since the founding of the Great Yan, it has been forbidden to confer urns on the royal family, and there can only be one person who makes the dragon qi ......"
In the latter words, Yang Hui was a little vague, but Zhou Bai also pretended not to hear clearly and didn't care.
……
With the help of the Duke of Qianguo, he doesn't have to worry about contacting the ministers of the three provinces or organizing the ceremony.
Changshui City is frying, the descendants of the prince of Jinchang County, Zhu Junzongzi is ready to take the throne and carry the banner of resistance to the Tatars.
Who is Zhu Jun, you ask someone casually on the road, and no one knows.
However, this is an official document of the Qianguo Mansion, and it is a notice to the world that the new Imperial Court of the Prison State will be established in Shuicheng, the governor of Nanyun Province.
And what is this future prison country doing, in the next three days, he is openly using his status as a prison country to find his subordinates.
Except for meeting with the political envoy of Nanyun Province, he stayed in the military camp outside the city the rest of the time, saying that he was taking over the old department of Anbei.
What is this name? The previously unknown waste material sect actually has an old department?
No one in the local area understood, and even many gentry thought that Zhu Jun was too dissolute, and admonished the Duke of Qianguo to suspend the establishment of the prison state.
But with the tough attitude of the Duke of Qianguo and the prestige of the southwest of Shizhen, the matter of the state supervision ceremony was carried out according to the plan after all.
On November 30 of the third year of Hong'an, the officials of the three divisions of Qianguo and Nanyun Province supported the son Zhu of the Great Yan Dynasty.
When the Tatar army invaded the three southwestern provinces, and King Gui was afraid to go to the prison country, Zhu Jun chose to stand up.
In this way, even if few people know Zhu Jun, on the day he ascended the throne, the people of Changshui City still warmly supported him.
Who doesn't know the cruelty of the Tartars, killing people like hemp, raping and plundering, and the massacre in Jiangnan scared many people's courage.
But as long as the Zhu family is willing to lead them to resist, no one will be stingy with their support.
Especially those scholars and gentry of the Great Yan Dynasty, as a powerful class, supported Zhou Bai more than ordinary people at this time.
Give people, money, and food, as long as you are a prisoner, dare to lead people to the front line to resist the Tartars.
Zhou Bai did not accept the suggestion of the Duke of Qianguo to sell the government, but set up the Imperial Court of the Prison State in the Yamen of the Domain.
In the same style as the previous Southern Prison States and Princes, Zhou Bai first wantonly added officials to those who supported the legislature, such as the Duke of Qianguo and the Taifu, and the political envoy Wang Pan and other three directors of Nanyun Province to increase their bachelors and form a cabinet.
In addition, Zhou Bai ordered the establishment of the Secret Literature Pavilion, independent of the cabinet, to form a forbidden army of only 1,000 people......
At the same time, the characters who issued orders to be sealed were even more unexpected by the small court, and they were actually the rebels of the various ministries that were not recognized by the imperial court of the previous prison.
In order to crown Li Dingguo, who was active in Yichuan Province, as the Marquis of Anxi, Zhou Bai also toughened up with the small imperial court.
In view of the offensive of the Tatar army in Qianyang Province, seven days later, on December 7 of the third year of Hong'an, Zhou Bai swore to go out in Changshui City.
The pro-conscription army is a 20,000-strong army pieced together, and the soldiers are all from the previous economic control of soldiers and horses, and their personal military quality is not weak, but their morale is low.
With such an army, can you repel the fierce Tatar army?
The people of Changshui City were suspicious, the cabinet was suspicious, and Qianguo Gong was also suspicious, and he even took the initiative to say that he could prepare for a while longer.
However, Zhou Bai still chose to go on the expedition, no one could stop him, after all, if Qianyang is not guaranteed, then Nanyun is not guaranteed, and the situation will be even more sinister.
The mountain road was rugged, but fortunately, there were many local soldiers, and they finally arrived outside Qianyang City after more than half a month.
At this time, nearly half a month had passed since December 10, which meant that the Tatar Emperor's decree on shaving and making it easy to obey was being implemented in the southern region.
On December 25, Zhou Bai led the Praetorian Guards to take the initiative to attack, set up an ambush at a narrow junction, defeated the advance of the Tatar army, and beheaded 300.
On the 27th, Zhou Bai led people to take a shortcut to raid the back road of the Tartar army, burned 3,000 stones of grain, and beheaded 200.
The morale of the Yan army soared, and they finally dared to set up a village outside Qianyang City, echoing Qianyang City from afar.
On the 30th, the Tatar Han army of 100,000 arrived at Qianyang City, and the attack on the military fortress for several days was unsuccessful.
On January 5, the Jiangnan rebel army approached the southern capital, and the main Tatar force eagerly returned......
Zhou Bai seized the opportunity and led the army to pursue, bleeding and killing more than 10,000 enemies.
