Chapter 8 A Northern Liang Knife
"The emperor has arrived" The male duck's voice made people feel a burst of pantothenic acid in their teeth, echoing in the wide hall. Bai Xuan, wearing a crown of beaded curtains, wearing a five-clawed golden dragon robe, a dragon belt around his waist, flying dragon shoes on his feet, and a fine line outlined between his eyes.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live," the ministers knelt and bowed, kowtowed, and shouted. Bai Xuan, holding his hands in the void, "Zhong Aiqing, flat body" and "Xie Wuhuang". In the first team of Wenchen, standing at the head is an old man in a white-haired crane suit, Zhang Zigu, the prime minister of the current dynasty, and the military attache is a black-haired, blue-eyed, Chinese-faced man, and Cao Yue in a lion robe.
"Xuan, Xiao Luohe, the third son of King Beiliang, champion Hou Xiao Qingchen", champion Hou, was originally the title posthumously awarded by Xiao Luotu, the father of Xiao Qingchen, after his death, and now inherited by Xiao Qingchen.
Xiao Luohe and Xiao Qingchen are still draped in the court, and there are still traces of blood on their armor that have not been washed. Xiao Luohe and Xiao Qingchen had been waiting in front of the Qiankun Hall for a long time. Hearing Bai Xuan's announcement, he glanced at each other and strode into the Qiankun Palace. The guards in front of the hall saw a Beiliang knife hanging from Xiao Qingchen's waist, and wanted to step forward to stop it, but they were shocked by Xiao Qingchen, Xiao Qingchen saw the guard who fell upside down, grinned, and was extremely arrogant.
As soon as Xiao Qingchen entered the hall, the civil and military officials were angry, and some people in the Ministry of Rites even reprimanded "Rude rebel!" ”。 Xiao Qingchen followed Xiao Luohe, his eyes looked directly at Bai Xuan, and he was not afraid.
Xiao Luohe and Xiao Qingchen wanted to kneel and bow, but Bai Xuan said, "Two Aiqing, don't be polite", "Thank the emperor". At this time, an official jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, the champion Marquis, it is a great disrespect to ignore the etiquette and bring weapons to the palace without authorization." Moreover, last night, the subordinates disobeyed the discipline, trespassed into the camp without permission, and injured countless Royal Forest soldiers, both of which are serious crimes. Please ask the emperor to impose a heavy punishment so that the ignorant children can understand my great etiquette method! “
Xiao Qingchen just quietly looked at the second-grade official in the brocade chicken suit, and just finished speaking, Zhang Zigu, who had closed his eyes in front of him, stood up and said slowly, "Lord Liu's words are wrong, General Xiao is the successor to his father's title of champion marquis, ten years ago, the emperor read his military exploits and said that all the sons and grandsons of the champion marquis can carry weapons in the palace, and now it is just a Beiliang knife." I also heard a little about last night's incident, they just went to pay tribute to the deceased warriors, human nature. “
Xiao Qingchen looked directly at Zhang Zigu arrogantly, there is a lot of Confucianism at your disposal, I have a knife to cut it down, but it means before and after my life. Jean's civil and official department, a child who is secretly watched cannot be taught, and a husband cannot be handed over.
Bai Xuan said, "The prime minister is right, how can I break my promise, in the future, the champion Hou can carry the Beiliang knife when he enters the hall and faces the saint." Now that the Qianxue army has retreated, the people must recuperate after this war, but the border defense must not be relaxed. ”
"Xiao Luohe stepped forward to listen to the order," Bai Xuan said. Xiao Luohe knelt on one leg and bowed. "Generalissimo Zhenxi, Xiao Luohe still holds the position of Marshal Zhenxi, and he has been given 100 swords, 1,000 taels of gold, 10,000 taels of silver, and a horse of sweat and blood. Three days later! Bai Xuan originally wanted to withdraw on the grounds that Xiao Luohe had been guarding the border for a long time and should be recuperating, but who knew that the Shanhaiguan army only listened to him, so he could only let him continue to serve.
"Minister, Xiao Luohe receives the order" Bai Xuan's decision today was not unexpected by Xiao Luohe. In previous encounters, he used more than one hint, implying that the remaining 300,000 troops of Baixuanshan Customs were only obeying his orders. If he intervenes, the three armies will not accept it, causing a military mutiny, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Champion Hou Xiao Qingchen listened to the order, Xiao Qingchen performed heroically in the fight against the Qianxue army, repeatedly offered advice, and once led 3,000 light soldiers to break the enemy army of 50,000. I gave the champion Hou Xiao Qingchen, a python robe, and a sweat and blood horse. As soon as these words came out, the eyelids of some officials in the DPRK and China trembled, and such an honor that he had at the age of 18 would be spared even if it was due to his father's credit. You must know that neither the prime minister nor the general Cao Yue have such an honor.
"Minister, take the order!" It stands to reason that Xiao Qingchen and Xiao Luohe want to say thank you to Lord Longen, but they are just thanks, which is intriguing.
Zhang Zigu Cao Yue stepped forward to receive the order. Everyone thought that the seal would end here, but after looking at it, it seems that there is no end to it.
"The old minister (minister) Zhang Zigu (Cao Yue) received the order"
"Now the four seas are peaceful, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, all are Prime Minister Zhang Zigu bowed and did his best, assisted in a good way, I specially gave Prime Minister Zhang Zigu a python robe, Cao Yue, dedicated to the country, many times to establish military merits, command the army in a good way, for me to guard the land of the Southern Barbarians, hard work, Cao Yue python robe"
The two thanked the emperor, took the python robe, and stepped aside, their faces calm and unwavering. And Bai Xuan glanced at Xiao Luohe, and said, "Now Xiao Aiqing, what do you have to do?" Zhang Zigu also knew that Bai Xuan wanted to take over the military power of Shanhaiguan, who knew the depth of Xiao Luohe's influence, the soldiers and horses of Shanhaiguan only obeyed him, and he couldn't take back the military power, and he could only secretly disgust Xiao Luohe.
Xiao Luohe took out a fold from his arms, handed it to a little eunuch, and handed it to Bai Xuan. As soon as Bai Xuan received the fold, Xiao Luohe said lightly, "Shanhaiguan supervises the army, Yuan Zhichen fornicated with foreign enemies, opened the gate of Songshan Pass and leaked the military information of our army many times, and has been beheaded by his subordinates!" “
"Humph!" Bai Xuan slammed the table, startling everyone. Bai Xuan's face was full of anger and shouted, "I saw that he was quite talented and learned, and gave him glory and wealth, and he actually fornicated with the enemy country. Come on, demote Yuan Zhichen to the poor and expel him from the capital! You can't enter the capital for half a step within three generations!" After speaking, he waved his sleeves and left.
Yuan Zhichen, is the champion of Tianyuan for 20 years, quite talented, and handsome, at that time was given a marriage contract by Bai Xuan and his six daughters, twenty-three years, the war broke out, Bai Xuan intended to let him hone and hone, and also inhibit Xiao Luohe's majesty in the army, who knew that Xiao Luohe was killed. In fact, Bai Xuan knew that Yuan Zhichen did not commit treason, but was just killed by Xiao Luohe with a knife, and now there is no proof of his death, Xiao Luohe said that he was a traitor or a traitor, and he was loyal or loyal.
Xiao Luohe saw Bai Xuan brushing his sleeves away, and he didn't think so, Bai Xuan wanted to disgust himself, and I would disgust you! There are two copies of this recital, one is to say that Yuan Zhichen was martyred, and the other is to fornicate with the enemy country, all of which are based on Bai Xuan's choice.
Xiao Qingchen saw that he had retreated, held the Beiliang knife in his hand, and said to Xiao Luohe, "Let's go!" He knew that no one in the Manchu Dynasty here could afford to look down on the reckless Beiliang, and there was no need to stand here and suffer all the white eyes. The two of them still walked out of the palace as if they had no one in their eyes.
"The old man has a letter, urging you to go back to Beiliang!" Xiao Luohe rode on his war horse, glanced at the walls of the palace, and exhaled comfortably. "Got it, Third Uncle!" Xiao Qingchen twisted his neck, rode his war horse and said to Xiao Luohe, "I'll leave tomorrow!" After speaking, he wanted to ride away, but he seemed to remember something, and he turned his head and smiled, "Actually, Shu Tiange is good!" He laughed and rode away. When Xiao Luohe heard this, he laughed and scolded, and couldn't help but recall that encounter.
Xiao Luohe is now forty-four out of forty, and he has not yet married, and he has no heirs under his knees. In the eyes of outsiders, the position of King of Beiliang has no fate with him. However, Xiao Luohe did not show any dissatisfaction, or any desire to take profit.
Xiao Qingchen rode in front of the palace avenue, there was no obstacle, ordinary people were not allowed to come here, only the officials who went to the court to discuss matters walked every day. Although some officials were dissatisfied when they saw Xiao Qingchen riding in the city, they also dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, and Xiao Qingchen did not care about it at all.
"Whoosh" Suddenly Xiao Qingchen possessed the horse's back, and in an instant, a shadow flashed, Xiao Qingchen could see clearly, it was an iron arrow. Xiao Qingchen grabbed the war horse and looked at it, a group of young people in front of him immediately stepped forward, and suddenly Xiao Qingchen showed a hint of playfulness, and the person in front of him was wearing a plain Guozijian student costume.
After the founding of the country, Bai Yu, the founding emperor of the Great Qian, was quite good at Confucian governance, so he established the Guozijian to cultivate Confucian students.
The leader had a large black bow in his hand, and immediately a quiver and three arrows. The man stepped forward and said lightly, "I have heard that the champion Hou Wuyi is outstanding, and he is a master in the Beiliang Army. "After the dispersal of the dynasty, except for the officials who stayed in the cabinet and the six ministries on duty, the others all surrounded them, and they couldn't wait to see Bei Liang out of trouble.
Xiao Qingchen's eyes were cold, and he said coldly, "I'll also take a look, what kind of apprentices the students of Guozijian are" For Xiao Qingchen, it is not humiliating to be with him. The two are silent, just each other.
The big bow in the hand of the man turned over, and he pulled out three arrows with lightning speed, and the three arrows were fired in unison, chasing the stars and the moon. The three arrows rushed towards Xiao Qingchen with the sound of sound breaking, and rushed straight towards Xiao Qingchen. The three arrows were full of energy, at first they gathered in a line, and then spread out, and the strength was so strong that they blew up the clothes and hats of some officials next to them, stabbing them so that they couldn't open their eyes.
In Xiao Qingchen's eyes, the trajectory of those three arrows is elusive, I am afraid that it is the strongest arrow of that person, that strength, even Xiao Qingchen does not dare to touch it, if on the battlefield, he secretly attacks, Xiao Qingchen is afraid that he will die for a lifetime. But now face to face, Xiao Qingchen is not afraid at all. In the eyes of others, Xiao Qingchen seemed to be frightened stupid and did not move at all. Just when the arrow flies out of the normal distance. Xiao Qingchen moved.
The movements seem to be extremely slow, but they are incredibly fast. A dazzling light flashed between heaven and earth, Xiao Qingchen just slashed simply, his strength was extremely domineering, and the sword qi cut cracks on the avenue paved with green rock, and the bricks and stones splashed.
"Boom" The two energies met, and the three iron arrows were directly crushed. But Xiao Qingchen's sword qi was still not eliminated, and it directly attacked the man's face. The man was not afraid at all, he was arrogant, and in the exclamation of everyone, the sword qi finally stopped in front of the man's face, and a strand of black hair fluttered down.
Xiao Qingchen put away his knife, turned his horse forward, and passed by the man. "You're not worthy!" Xiao Qingchen walked away in the angry eyes of the rest of the country's eunuchs.
Seeing that this was the end, the rest of the officials left in disappointment. The young man with the bow turned around, everyone was shocked, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of the young man's mouth.
The young man looked at Xiao Qingchen's distant figure, smiled, and walked away.
Xiao Qingchen brushed over the shoulders, and there were three holes in it, but they were not so obvious.
