Chapter 399: Candle Shadow, Axe Sound
In the mansion of General Han Chang'an, Zhang Fei put the warm smoker closer to his legs.
This made Ma Chao, who was sitting next to Zhang Fei, more and more unhappy.
Immediately, the ape's arm eased and dragged the smoker over again.
Zhang Fei's eyebrows gradually raised, staring at the famous Jin Ma Chao of Yongliang and revealing a kind smile, and the two rows of big white teeth were extremely eye-catching:
"That Yan Xing, three moves in foot combat and abandoning the sword to lose, but the defeated general of the five combinations in the cavalry fight."
While speaking, Zhang Fei's chin slowly raised, and finally used four words to evaluate:
"But Erl."
Seeing that Zhang Fei was about to look at people with his nostrils, Ma Chao suddenly became angry:
"At the beginning, Yan Xing was just a bad reputation, and I was unprepared, otherwise I would be shot within three moves!"
How Yan Xing boasted of this record in Yongliang, Ma Chao as the person concerned couldn't be clearer.
Slowly lowered his head and looked at Ma Mengqi from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze, Zhang Fei seemed to smile and said "ha".
Although there was no word, this made Ma Chao more and more angry, and immediately got up and wanted to go out to compete with the other party.
"Third brother!" Liu Bei pressed his head and reprimanded lightly.
So Zhang Fei had to mutter:
"Okay, okay, I still believe what you Ma Mengqi said?"
"Anyway, I don't think that Yan can do anything."
Ma Chao almost wanted to vomit blood, if it wasn't for Jian Yong coming over to persuade peace, he would have to go out and share his relationship with this black guy no matter what!
What interrupted the chaotic atmosphere in the hall was the sudden unfolding of a light curtain.
Zhang Fei was stunned, his mouth was bored:
"How can it be fratricidal again? The royal flesh and blood brothers of the other generation, Mo said that compared with me and the eldest brother and the second brother. ”
"Even compared to Meng Qi and his brother Ma Dai, it is far inferior."
Ma Chaoxin said that the three generals said that although Ma Dai is not a brother, he is close to a blood relative.
"I remember that when Meng Qi vomited blood and died early, he cried and entrusted Ma Dai to his eldest brother......"
"Zhang Yide!" Ma Chao shouted.
"What are you screaming and doing?"
Zhang Fei was dissatisfied, and even though he was in a hurry:
"Hey, how did you sneak up like that Yan Xing?"
"If you have the courage, go out and fight with me for a hundred rounds!"
Jian Yong was helpless, Liu Bei stroked his head, Kong Ming and the others were not surprised, and Lu Su was dumbfounded.
……
In the Manna Palace, Pei Xingjian was full of curiosity about everything he saw in front of him.
However, after receiving the master's warning before, he remembered the order to read more, listen more, remember more, and say less, and his eyes rolled wildly, and he didn't say a word.
He watched as the ministers would gather here, the emperor and queen were coming, and the imperial doctor was sitting upright.
The Shaofu supervisor is also like a great enemy, seeing that he has prepared an ink paperweight, and he simply hangs his paintbrush after listening to the report of the time, as if he is making some kind of preparation.
Although the master also looked like he was about to doze off, he would look up at the blank wall from time to time.
Such an atmosphere reminded Pei Xingjian of the Qinghai battlefield, when the war was about to start, it seemed to be so difficult.
But fortunately, this time he didn't wait too long, and with the time outside the hall, Pei Xingjian looked at the light that rose out of nowhere, like a fairy trace, like a dragon and a snake, hovering up, and occupied the entire blank wall in an instant.
Although he didn't turn his head to look at the audience, Pei Xingjian could also feel that with the appearance of this light curtain, even His Majesty seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Jing was also relieved, and as soon as he turned around, he saw his beloved disciple looking left and right.
"What are you looking at?"
For a while, even Li Shimin looked over, ordinary people saw the light curtain, and most of them were surprised and unbelievable, such as Pei Xingjian, who was not afraid at all, but looked around with a look of disappointment on his face, it was the first time.
"Master, what about the Xuannu? What about the colorful auspicious clouds? What about the Yellow Turban Lux? Why didn't Hebo Shuijun see it? ”
Li Jing was speechless, Li Shimin laughed, and directly interjected:
"Keeping the promise and worrying about this? But if you want to see it, please Master. ”
"After a hundred years of waiting for the pharmacist, if you want to be crowned the king of heaven, the Hebo Water Monarch Xuannu Rui Beast, you must respect your master's dispatch."
Hearing these words, Pei Xingjian's eyes lit up, and he said without hesitation:
"Master, I want to ride a unicorn! Tell the Lady! ”
Li Jing glanced at Pei Xingjian with disgust:
Liangzhou looked quite smart when he was in Liangzhou, why was he so stupid at this time?
However, seeing that the light curtain had already spoken, Li Jing didn't bother to care, so he left the back of his apprentice's head, and then peeled a grape and looked intently.
If you calculate it carefully, this year he has been busy with the Tuyuhun war since Yuan Zheng, and this is the real rare leisure time.
[At the beginning of 1100 AD, Zhao Xu, who was only twenty-five years old, died of illness.
This Song official, ascended the throne at the age of nine, pro-government at the age of seventeen, and during the fifteenth year of his reign, the two battles of Pingxia City made the Western Xia surrender, and the Battle of Hehuang took over the Qingtang area.
Although it is difficult to call it perfect, it is undoubtedly a rare outlier among the emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty, and many people in later generations commented that Zhezong's reign was the last return to the light of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Why is it called a return to the light? Because Zhezong died of illness and had no children, adhering to the tradition of bringing the elder brother and brother left by Taizong when the Song Dynasty was founded, Zhezong's second brother Duanwang Zhao Ji was established as the emperor, this is the later famous Song Huizong, and he is also the Dude Duke of Jin and the king of Tianshui County.
After succeeding to the throne, Song Huizong soon found himself in the same predicament as Song Taizong.
The same brother and brother, the same edict of the emperor, the same persecution of the clan relatives who have the right to inherit the throne.
And for the people, Song Zhezong, the young son of heaven, successfully opened the border and a snow to the former shame of the Western Xia Kingdom, and the literati of Bianliang have a lot of nostalgia, and some bold people even compare it to Taizu, so the discussion about the real cause of Song Taizu's death has been turned over again.
Song Huizong couldn't prove to the people that Song Zhezong really died of natural illness, so he chose the stupidest thing at that time:
In the second year of Chongning, Song Huizong issued an edict to strictly prohibit the collection of essays on law changes by eleven people, including the Three Sus, and added an additional banned book: "Xiangshan Yelu".
The execution of grassroots officials in the Northern Song Dynasty was naturally far inferior to that of the Ming and Qing dynasties, so the official ban on books became more and more widely disseminated among the people.
Since it has been spread, the people of the Northern Song Dynasty are naturally curious about how this book poked the lung tube of Song Huizong, which is not difficult for the Song Dynasty with a literary style, so soon, the 1.0 version of the candle shadow axe was presented in front of the people of Bianjing.
To put it simply, Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi's brothers encountered an amazing fairy when they were young, and this big fairy showed a little magic and calculated it on the spot:
Oh, mom, you want to be the emperor, I know when you ascended the throne and opened the country.
In view of this, after ascending the throne, Zhao Kuangyin has been looking for this great fairy, until he went to Luoyang to play sixteen years later, and he happened to meet it again.
Zhao Da's question this time is very simple, he wants to know how long he can live, Da Xian'er is also very immortal, and he pinched his fingers and said: On October 20 this year, you can still live for twelve years on a sunny day, otherwise prepare for the future as soon as possible.
Waiting for this day, what made Zhao Da anxious was that it was still sunny at noon, but suddenly it began to snow heavily in the evening, and he couldn't stop it, and the snow in the palace was a few inches thick.
Seeing this, Zhao Da hurriedly ordered someone to summon his baby brother into the palace and blew away the idle people, and then the brother drank until midnight and almost didn't pour Zhao Er to death, and the candlelight cast the shadows of the two on the window so that the attendants could see clearly, this is the "candle shadow".
The two drank until midnight, Zhao Da didn't know what wind he suddenly smoked, used a pillar axe to scratch on the ground, and said loudly to Zhao Er, "It's easy to do!" Well done! This is the "sound of the axe".
After it was over, Zhao Da went to sleep directly, snoring like thunder.
Zhao Er stayed in the palace until the next morning, when the drums beat five times and there was no movement in the hall, and the attendants found that Zhao Da was already cold.
Then Zhao Er ascended the throne in front of the coffin, and thus began the extraordinary life of the car god.
The records in "Xiangshan Yelu" are closer to myths and legends, and they don't seem to have any credibility at a glance, but don't worry, we still have version 2.0, version 3.0, and even MAX revision.
And the truth is often hidden in the corners of historical materials. 】
Zhao Pu's face froze, and he was very interested in what Song Huizong said in later generations.
But soon, Zhao Pu felt that he was not interested in this matter of candle shadow axe.
Not only that, but he also quietly moved back with a chair:
Don't splash it in your face later.
The young chamberlains trembled, and the two secretaries did not dare to raise their heads, even though they recorded all the voices they heard in their ears.
The air in the hall seemed to be viscous, and the attendants who lowered their heads heard the voice of the official gradually rising:
"Zhao Jiong?!"
"Easy to do!?"
To be honest, Zhao Kuangyin didn't know what it meant to be easy to do, but he was more at a loss:
These four words with unknown meaning alone are the last words that I left in the world?
is also for this reason, Zhao Kuangyin, who has never been very good in the military, did not get angry at the first time, but judging from the tone of his voice gradually raising Zhao Jiong, the mood is definitely not good.
"Plop!"
The chamberlains were no strangers to the sound of knees touching the floor.
Then there were two "knock knocks", although they knew that it was out of place, but the young attendants couldn't help but praise it together in their hearts:
The sound is crisp! What a braincase!
Then the voice of King Jin crying and grabbing the earth sounded in the hall:
"Your Majesty! Official! Brother! ”
"How dare my brother come here? How wronged the younger brother is! ”
At the critical moment, Zhao Guangyi felt that his thoughts were unprecedentedly clear, and every word that Fang Cai Guangmu said was clearly presented in his mind, and he clearly found one of the loopholes:
"My brother and I both know that my Song has this because of the efforts of the officials, why is it so demonic?"
"And this ninth-rate book is actually famous, it can be seen that most of its content is as fictional and false as later generations said, and it is all made to defile the love of our brothers!"
"Brother Mingjian!"
Zhao Guangyi kowtowed again, touching his head to the floor without lifting a single inch, not caring about the dust on his hands and face.
The inner hall was quiet, and he could vaguely hear the sound of clothes and armor rubbing and footsteps when the forbidden soldiers outside the hall were patrolling and walking, and he clearly knew that at this moment, with only a word from his brother, these forbidden troops would rush in, and what Zhao Jiong and Song Taizong would all be dust.
He could still hear a few fierce gasps from the elder brother as if pulling a bellows, most of them were old illnesses again, the thick wheezing gradually became slighter, and Zhao Guangyi's heart that jumped to his throat gradually fell back.
Since the elder brother did not speak up for punishment at the first time, it should not be a big problem......
"Then how should I call you?"
"Kuang Yihu? Light is right? Jionghu?"
"Or Taizong? Donkey cart emperor? Or what kind of sorghum river car god? ”
The soft, but powerful question fell on Zhao Guangyi's ears, making his heart sink a little.
Although I don't understand what the donkey cart emperor means, the judgment of his brother from childhood to adulthood made him choose to fight the snake with the stick for the first time:
"Regardless of Kuang Yi and Guangyi, they are all official and subordinate brothers."
"Huh!" There was no half of a smile in the short laughter, Zhao Kuangyin felt the pain in his chest gradually ease, and finally spoke:
"Get up, you have no bad intentions, why should you be so frightened and lose your prestige?"
"And the name of this "Xiangshan Yelu" does not look like a real record, or ......"
Or how Zhao Kuangyin didn't say it explicitly, but of course Zhao Guangyi understood, after all, the light curtain said clearly, this "Yelu" is just an appetizer, and there will be it later.
And most of his fate depends on what future generations say.
So his heart inevitably hung up.
……
"Meng Qi, you say, this Song Emperor brother, is it much worse than that Xuanwu Sect?"
Zhang Fei touched his waist and grinned for a while, but he still asked with a smile on his face.
Ma Chao glanced at Zhang Fei lightly, didn't say anything, and even moved the cushion to the side a little.
Of course, if it weren't for the dark blue on the cheeks that ruined the beauty, this cold face should be able to add a bit of handsomeness.
Kong Ming didn't care much about this kind of thing that seemed to be a brotherly wall, and his chin was slightly puzzled:
"Changing the law must be for survival, why should such discussions be forbidden?"
