Bang!

Suspended in mid-air, the body of the sea tide fell to the ground.

Zhao Hongming said to the ministers of civil and military affairs without looking back: "Send the body to the King of Chu and let him give me an explanation." ”

The courtiers of the Wei State behind him looked excited, and replied heavily: "Obey, Your Majesty!" ”

Zhao Hongming seemed to have a sense, and glanced at the direction of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

So many things have happened in Daliang City, and his throne is inherited by Zhao Fuxu, so it is reasonable to care about one or two at this time.

With a twist of his footsteps, he walked towards the Heart Cultivation Palace.

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, the atmosphere is quiet and tranquil.

Emperor Zhao Maid, who has abdicated for a long time, has a happy face.

After a few years, his face is a little old, but there is still a trace of extraordinary heroism between his eyebrows.

It seemed that he had already expected Zhao Hongming's arrival, and after he heard the footsteps outside the hall, he couldn't help but be shocked.

The moment Zhao Hongming stepped into the Heart Cultivation Palace, everyone's eyes in the hall were cast to the entrance of the hall.

I don't know why, at this time, I only feel that Zhao Hongming seems to have a strong majesty.

The palace maids and temple people in the Heart Cultivation Hall felt that their eyes were stabbed and painful, and they even wanted to shed tears, so they hurriedly lowered their heads and did not dare to look again.

Feng Dabao, who was standing beside Zhao Yuxu, was a congenital martial artist, his whole body was full of qi and blood, but he didn't feel anything.

Seeing Zhao Hongming, his mind couldn't help but think of the scene that took him to choose exercises in the past.

A slightly childish, cramped, and humble face overlapped with the current domineering face.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the world is impermanent.

It is said that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, but it only took 12 years for the prince in front of him to become the world's first martial artist from an unknown prince to the current power.

Let Feng Dabao be both envious and happy for himself.

Fortunately, when Zhao Hongming was not gaining power, he fell into the well and gave some favors.

Otherwise, I'm afraid my fate will really not be too good.

"Father." Zhao Hongming stepped forward, knelt down on one knee and saluted respectfully, then raised his head and said with a smile: "Erchen has killed Hai Chaosheng, and the imperial city is already worry-free. ”

Zhao Yuxu also breathed a long sigh of relief, with a long-lost smile on her face.

"Good! Good! Good! Zhao Yuxu said three good words in a row, and then walked down to help Zhao Hongming up with his own hands, and kept looking up and down with his eyes: "Emperor, you are really my pride." ”

Zhao Hongming said modestly: "My father has won the award, this is what the son should do." ”

Zhao Fuxu patted Zhao Hongming's shoulder and said with emotion: "I think back then, my Wei State was among the six countries, and its national strength was average, and it was often bullied by other powerful countries. Now that there is an emperor like you, why is my Wei country worried about not prospering, and why is my Zhao family not worried? ”

Zhao Hongming's expression was solemn and said: "Father, rest assured, my sons and ministers will do their best to ensure the prosperity of my Wei country!" ”

"Good! With your words, I feel at ease. Zhao Yuxu nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the people in the harem and said, "Go, I'm afraid there are still many things waiting for you to deal with in the palace now, so you don't have to spend too much energy here." ”

Zhao Hongming did not go to greet again.

Hai Chaosheng's attack on Daliang City is not a trivial matter.

It won't be long before it will cause an uproar in the world.

It is foreseeable that in the next Daliang City, I am afraid that there will be a mixture of fish and dragons.

And the Seven Stars Peerless Heavenly Array in the Imperial Palace, there are many places that have been damaged and need to be repaired in time.

The end of the rebellion of the Taiping Sect in the North, as well as the possible reaction of the Chu State, etc., there are really a lot of things to be done next.

Zhao Hongming really didn't have much time to delay here.

He stood up again and saluted, "My son is leaving." ”

Meanwhile.

The maid Xiaowan hurriedly walked through the carved corridor and went straight to Chen Xuerong's bedroom, Yaohua Palace.

In the backyard of the dormitory, Chen Xuerong sat on a stone bench.

Her face was calm, staring at Zhao Yinche's cultivation, as if everything that happened in the outside world had nothing to do with her.

But if you look closely, you can see that she holds the hilt of a sword in her left hand, and the hilt moves slightly outward an inch, revealing part of the silver blade.

If the sword was drawn, it would be just right to hit her snow-white neck.

"Mother, mother." Xiao Wan didn't care about the politeness, rushed directly to Chen Xuerong's side, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty has won!" The tall man is leading people to spread the good news one by one to appease the harem. ”

The Wei Imperial Palace is close to the north of the Imperial Palace, which is relatively remote, and it is not possible to see the details of those battles, and the outcome of this battle is not particularly clear.

Now after seeing Xiaowan, Chen Xuerong can know.

Knowing that Zhao Hongming had won, Chen Xuerong tilted his head slightly, glanced at Xiao Wan, and a subtle smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth.

With a slight force on her unmarked wrist, she pushed the sword back into the sheath, and she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, and said flatly: "This palace knows." Your Highness is practicing, go out. ”

Xiao Wan only felt a little aggrieved, obviously His Majesty's victory over Hai Chaosheng was a great joy, but why did Concubine Rong look so bland?

The impression of the royal emotion was weak and couldn't help but deepen a little in her heart.

She didn't dare to disobey Chen Xuerong's wishes, so she made a thousand blessings and retreated silently.

Xiao Wan stood at the door of the dormitory, looked back, and saw Chen Xuerong get up and pick up the sword and walk back into the house, and when she came out again, she was empty-handed.

I couldn't help but have a little more red joy on my face.

Xiao Wan's heart throbbed, she was still young, she seemed to understand something, but she didn't know very well, it seemed to be a little hazy.

With a look of doubt, he left silently.

……

Outside the Chu Palace, a fast horse galloped like the wind, and the horse's hooves kicked up a cloud of dust.

The Chu soldiers on the horse were wearing tight-fitting armor and a red flag embroidered with Chu characters behind their backs, looking nervous and solemn.

"Report-" The Chu soldiers waited until they were close to leaving the palace, jumped off their horses, rushed into the main hall of the Chu Palace in three steps and two steps, knelt on one knee, and presented an urgent report with both hands that had not yet been opened: "The king, there is an urgent report ahead, the sea palace master has easily broken through the Zhennan Pass!" ”

King Chu Lie was originally discussing state affairs with his ministers, but when he heard this, Huo Ran got up, walked quickly to the front of the troops, and grabbed the urgent report.

His gaze was like a torch, quickly sweeping every word on the battle report, and the expression on his face changed from surprise to ecstasy, as if he had experienced a huge emotional swing in a short period of time.

"Hahaha!" King Chu Lie suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, and held the battle report high: "God help me!" The sea palace master actually really made a move, and easily won Zhennan Pass for Gu! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”

Seeing this, the ministers stepped forward to congratulate one after another.

In the past, Hai Chaosheng was only obsessed with cultivation and pursued the path of immortality, and he had never been very enthusiastic about war.

Almost all of them are promised by him, and then he moves them with affection.

Now he actually took the initiative to make a move, which is a happy event for him.

"The king is wise, since it is the sea palace master who has made a move, there will be chaos on the Wei side, and it is indeed an opportunity for us and others!"

"We can just take the opportunity to send troops to attack the city and conquer the city to make up for the loss of Emperor Wei deceiving the king back then!"

King Chu Lie listened to the courtesy of his ministers, and his heart became more and more proud.

He waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Pass Gu's order, immediately recruit the martial artists of all sects, mobilize soldiers and horses, and Lone will personally lead the army to attack Wei!" This time, we want to be ashamed and let the world see how powerful Chu is doing! ”

"Yes!" The ministers responded in unison, and the hall was suddenly filled with a murderous atmosphere.

As the king of Chu, if he did not start a war for five years, he would lose the opportunity to enter the imperial tomb after his death.

Do the math, King Chu Lie and Wei have been deflated in a row, and they haven't made a big fight for three years.

It's time to go big.

Just a few days later.

The news about Zhao Hongming defeating Hai Chaosheng to become the world's number one martial artist quickly spread around Daliang, causing all the surrounding martial artists to tremble.

Many martial arts forces that had been subordinated to the Wei court secretly cried out for luck.

With Zhao Hongming's current strength, there is no pressure to kill them at all.

If they hadn't been aware of the current affairs at that time, the next fate can be imagined.

Compared with them, Wei Wushu and the Wei forbidden army who learned the news were singing and dancing.

Unlike those martial arts forces, Wei Wushu and the forbidden army were already under the command of Zhao Hongming, and they wished that Zhao Hongming would become stronger.

The stronger Zhao Hongming is, the more favorable the protection of their interests.

Seeing Zhao Hongming's strength at this time, how could these people not be overjoyed?

Some generals even took this opportunity to feast the whole army, which attracted bursts of cheers.

Qianqing Palace.

At this time, it was very busy, and various emergency reports floated over like snowflakes, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

The palace people hurriedly put the pieces in front of the ministers and handed them over to the ministers.

Of all the movements, two stand out.

The first chapter brought the news that the war of the Taiping Sect in the North had been pacified, and the aftermath had begun.

Although the ministers of the imperial court already knew that the peace of the war in the north was caused by Zhao Hongming, when the detailed results of the battle above were presented, they still made these Wei ministers gasp.

They didn't know that Zhao Hongming had killed so many people in that short period of time.

The song says that in the land of rebellion in the north, the entire battlefield is stained red with blood.

The corpses were piled up, the stumps and severed arms could be seen everywhere, and the blood gathered into small streams, and the blood flowed like rivers, almost a hundred miles without people, which made people shudder.

The battle-hardened generals in the area even bluntly said that the killing was too heavy.

Compared with this 'good news' recital, the second recital is a 'bad news' - Zhennan Pass was lost, and a city was destroyed by Hai Chaosheng on the way to Daliang.

These two movements, one of which concerns Zhao Hongming himself and the other of the southern defense line of Wei, do not allow important ministers to make up their own minds.

After being reviewed by Gao Yanshi, it was quickly submitted to Zhao Hongming's case.

Zhao Hongming picked up one of the pieces about the Northland, and a smile appeared on his face after reading it.

This recital can be regarded as a side proof of what he has done, and his prestige in the court has been further enhanced.

Putting down the recital about Beidi, Zhao Hongming picked up the recital about Nanling County, and the smile on his face quickly faded again.

After a while, Zhao Hongming put down the chapter and instructed Gao Yanshi: "Send the two prime ministers, the secretary of the military department and the secretary of the household department to come here. ”

Gao Yanshi bowed his head and said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

There is a place in the palace for ministers to deal with political affairs, not far from the Qianqing Palace.

Soon, Xiao Boling, who had been summoned, appeared in front of Zhao Hongming.

"See Your Majesty."

Zhao Hongming said straight to the point: "Regarding the breach of Zhennan Pass, what do you think of several Aiqing? ”

"Your Majesty, the news of Hai Chaosheng's beheading did not reach the Chu State so quickly, so King Chu Lie is likely to take the opportunity to send troops when he learns the news that Zhennan Pass has been breached." Xiao Boling, the right man of the middle book, said directly worriedly: "We must prepare early. ”

Yu Hezheng, the secretary of the military department, also agreed: "The minister also thinks the same. ”

Zhao Hongming nodded in agreement.

In fact, if he was standing in the position of King Chu Lie, he would probably be ready to move when he learned such news first, not to mention that King Chu Lie was deflated again and again in his hands, and he was obsessed with expanding the territory.

After a little silence, Zhao Hongming made a decision.

He said with a decisive look in his eyes: "Spread my order, immediately mobilize Wei Wushu, prepare to go to Chu State, and guard Nanguan." ”

"Obey your orders!"

As his order was given, the court and the court quickly began to get busy.

On the second day, under the implementation of Zhao Hongming's will, the Wei soldiers also began to assemble.

After three or five days of rest, Wei Wushu officially opened.

Zhao Hongming stood at the highest point of the Qianqing Palace, looking at the Wei Wu army in the distance, and suddenly said to Gao Yanshi: "Where is Hai Chaosheng's body sent now?" ”

Gao Yanshi bowed his head and said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, you should be about to reach Zhennan Pass." ”

"Then I'll go first, just in time."

After speaking, Zhao Hongming's figure disappeared in place, turning into a clear light and flying south.

King Chu Lie rode on a black war horse, his battle armor shining brightly, and led a large army to rush through Zhennan Pass like a torrent.

Their march went surprisingly well, and the smugness on King Chulie's face was palpable, and he seemed to have seen the banner of victory fluttering in front of him, as if he had seen the entire southern Wei Kingdom trembling under their iron hooves.

"Zhao Hongming, Zhao Hongming, I'm afraid you didn't expect such a day."

However, just as King Chu Lie was immersed in his fantasies, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in front of him.

A scout horse galloped in with an indescribable look of panic on his face.

"Newspaper—the king!" Tanma panted and knelt down in front of King Chu Lie's horse: "Our secret son found out the news from Daliang, the sea palace master of Chihe Palace...... He was beheaded by Emperor Zhao Hongming of Wei! ”

King Chu Lie was stunned when he heard this, and the smug look on his face instantly froze.

His eyes widened, as if looking at Tanma in disbelief, and there was a tremor in his voice: "You...... What did you say? The Sea Palace Lord was killed by Zhao Hongming? How is this possible? ”

Chu Bing, who was exploring the horse, lowered his head and said with a cry in his voice: "It's true, king!" The little one also inquired that Wei Guo was rushing towards this side with Hai Chaosheng's corpse! ”

King Chu Lie was momentarily stunned, only to feel that the world was spinning for a while, as if the whole world had collapsed, and he couldn't accept this fact.

Tanma Chubing's words were like sharp thorns piercing his heart.

He originally thought that Hai Chaosheng's shot this time was foolproof, and it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him to expand his territory, which could clear the obstacles ahead for him.

However, this idea has now been ruthlessly cut off by Zhao Hongming.

Now he's out, but he's dead?!

"No, you are disturbing the hearts of our army, and I want to kill you." King Chu Lie pulled out his sword and said fiercely: "Kill him for Gu!" ”

The Chu soldiers who were exploring the horses panicked and said: "The king spares his life, all I said is ......"

Poof!

Chu Bing's words came to an abrupt end and he was ruthlessly killed.

"Hmph, gossip confuses the public." King Chu Lie snorted coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

King Chu Lie looked up and saw a group of Wei cavalry galloping towards this side.

Their flags fluttered high and were embroidered with the characters "Wei" and "Wu".

There was a huge head on the flagpole at the front, which made King Chu Lie's face turn pale, making what he had just done look like a clown.

That head was none other than Hai Chaosheng!

He's really dead! (End of chapter)
