Chapter 35: The First Hearing of the War King Chitai
Ann Temple.
Chu Feifan's cold voice sounded, spreading to every corner of the main hall, and a look of panic appeared on the cheeks of everyone below.
In the entire hall, the atmosphere became deathly silent, and even the breathing and heartbeat of everyone could be heard clearly.
The sweat on Li Qing's forehead continued to fall to the ground along with his cheeks, and he looked at Chu Feifan with a sloppy gaze, his expression flustered.
"Huh!"
Meng Ye's figure suddenly rose, with a hint of awe on his cheeks, and his eyes stared at the angry Chu Feifan.
"Your Majesty, the minister sealed the mansion of the criminal minister Nalan Feng last night, and found a treasure trove in the mansion, the gold, silver and jewelry ministers have been liquidated, 500,000 taels of gold, 5 million taels of silver tickets, 1.5 million taels of silver, jade agate, ten boxes of jade calligraphy and paintings, and now all of them have been sealed and placed in the minister's mansion."
Chu Feifan's figure suddenly stood up, the anger on his cheeks was even more victorious, and a terrifying murderous aura lingered on Zhou's body, staring at Meng Ye with a fierce gaze.
"The thieves of the Nalan Wind Country, Nalan Mansion alone hides such a terrible huge amount of money, it seems that my Zichu is really poor and pitiful only the widows and the people!"
"Li Lin, the squire of the military department, the fastest time for you to count how much money and food can be allocated by the widow, and how much money is needed for all the soldiers of the three major legions in a year, and report it later, the widow will see it today!"
"Don't worry, the emperor will do it now!"
Li Lin looked at Li Qing, the head of the household, calmly, handed him a look, and motioned for him to leave with him.
Chu Feifan saw everything in his eyes, strode to Li Qing's side, sneered, and said, "Li Aiqing, you go with Li Lin!" ”
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Chu Feifan's sharp gaze stayed on Xiao Heng, the secretary of the military department, and suddenly turned around and came to his side.
"Xiao Aiqing, the military department has always been under your control, you are talking about it now, how much armament, war horses, and siege equipment do you have in Zichu?"
Xiao Heng felt the terrifying killing intent emanating from Chu Feifan's figure, his figure trembled, a trace of panic appeared on his cheeks, and he suddenly raised his head to look at Chu Feifan in front of him.
"Your Majesty, the forging of armaments, the breeding of war horses, when the first emperor was in power, it was always Qingguo Gong Liu Qing who was in charge, and Weichen had no right to intervene, so the minister really didn't know very well!"
"Qingguo Gong Liu Qing?"
"What does Lord Xiao mean, for so many years, as the secretary of the military department, you have not made any contributions, right?" Chu Feifan's face was pale, his eyes flashed with displeasure, and he said in a cold voice.
"The emperor, ministers, and ministers have always been in charge of the replacement of soldiers, responsible for recruiting troops and horses, and implementing military orders, and the other emperors have been handed over to the anti-thief Liu Qing."
A cold glint flashed in Chu Feifan's eyes, his expression was serious, and his voice was grim: "Then Xiao Aiqing knows where Liu Qing's ordnance forging and war horses are raised?" ”
"Your Majesty, the place where the ordnance is forged is in the suburbs outside the imperial city, after the anti-thief Liu Qing was killed by the emperor, the minister has sent someone to control all the weapons workshops, but he has not had time to count them."
"The place where the war horses are raised is at the foot of Wuheng Mountain, and it is said that the anti-thief Liu Qing raised tens of thousands of war horses there, but no one knows how many there are. The minister also sent people to Wuheng Mountain, but he was driven back by the general who guarded the racecourse, saying that no one could approach the racecourse without the emperor's will! ”
"Hmm!"
"Is there such a thing? It seems that the widow is going to go to Wuheng Mountain in person! ”
"Xiao Aiqing, since you have been in charge of Zichu's recruitment, the widow hopes that Xiao Aiqing will continue to recruit for the widow. However, 10,000 soldiers and horses must be recruited within ten days, otherwise they will be punished for dereliction of duty! ”
Chu Feifan had a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, his cold eyes stared at Xiao Heng, and his voice was cold and bone-shattering.
"Your Majesty, recruit 10,000 troops in ten days, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for the ministers to complete the task!" Xiao Heng's face was pale, a look of embarrassment appeared in his eyes, and he said in a trembling voice.
"Xiao Aiqing, you have to have confidence in yourself, no matter what method you use, just complete the task. If you feel that you are not competent, then unload your armor and return to the field, the position of the military department Shangshu must be of interest to many people. ”
Xiao Heng nodded helplessly, and after Shi Li asked Chu Feifan to resign, he turned around and walked quickly outside the Anshen Temple, with a touch of displeasure on his cheeks.
At this time.
In the Nuoda Anshen Temple, Meng Ye was left alone, Chu Feifan glanced at him with a calm expression, and strode to his seat.
"Uncle, how is the matter of tracking down Nalan Yue?"
"Back to the emperor, the secret passage in Nalan Feng's mansion leads to the outside of the imperial city, and the minister sent people to track it all the way, but no trace of Nalan Yue was found, presumably he should have fled to Aoki City by now."
"However, the minister had already arrived in Nalan Mansion with another tiger talisman and half a map, and the minister didn't know what it was, so he kept it with him, and asked the emperor to take a look."
Meng Ye's indifferent voice sounded, he reached into his arms and took out a brocade box, strode forward and handed it to Xiao Guizi's hand.
Xiao Guizi opened the brocade box, took out the tiger talisman and half of the map and gave it to Chu Feifan's hand, only to see him put the tiger talisman aside, staring intently at the half of the map in his hand that exuded a simple and vicissitudes of life.
"It's a blueprint for an underground palace, but what is it for? Nalan Feng can put it together with the Tiger Talisman, which must be very precious. ”
Chu Feifan flipped through the half map of his hand several times, but he couldn't find any clues. At this time, Nangong Xi's figure suddenly came to his side, and the jade hand took the half of the map in his hand, and a touch of excitement instantly appeared in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, if the concubines are not mistaken, this should be the underground palace blueprint of the war king Chi Tai, who has been rumored thousands of years ago, hiding hidden treasures."
"War King Chitai?"
"War King Chitai, the second king to rule the entire War Continent, according to legend, he has four armies under his command, namely the Demon Dragon Legion, the Heavenly Tiger Legion, the War Sky Legion and the War King Legion. A thousand years ago, the War Continent was divided into four, and among the four major empires, the Dragon Heaven Empire was the most powerful, and the Dragon Heaven Emperor had always wanted to rule the entire War Continent. But he was bloodthirsty and brutal, after the three empires were captured by him, basically people and animals were left everywhere he went, blood flowed like rivers, and corpses and mountains and blood were everywhere. ”
"After the Dragon Heaven Emperor unified the war continent, he intensified his efforts, frantically enslaving the people to build a Dragon Heaven Pavilion that was on par with the sky for him. At that time, the people's livelihood was grieving, the people were living in dire straits, and there were uprisings in various places, and the war king Chitai was born, and it took just ten years to crush the rule of the Longtian Emperor and become the ruler of the new generation of war continents. ”
"Before his death, the war king Chitai ordered someone to build an underground palace for himself, and he put all the treasures and treasures he collected in the underground palace. It wasn't until after the death of the war king Chitai that rumors spread that there was a treasure hidden in the underground palace. ”
"But after a thousand years, history is constantly changing, but no one has found the underground palace where the war king Chitai hides his treasures."
Chu Feifan looked puzzled, his eyes flashed with a hint of incredulity, and the whole person fell into endless contemplation.
"Xi'er, is this half of the map really a treasure map of the underground palace of the War King Chitai? Times have changed, what happened thousands of years ago really exists? And is this map real? ”
Chu Feifan's voice indifferently said the question in his heart, and he looked at Nangong Xi with a solemn expression, and a look of curiosity appeared on his cheeks.
