Chapter 6: The goldsmith asks the ghosts and gods
"It's really not Ming Gong's doing?"
Looking at the benefactor who was present with his old god, Wu Yizhi took a deep breath and asked softly.
As General Huang's confidant and strategist, he knew his benefactor's ambitious heart, but he never wanted to see the other party fall into the notoriety of "killing the king" because of this.
The initiator, what is the aftermath?
Such a precedent must not be set by one's own benefactor!
Huang Jingming stood up, solemnly arched his hand in the direction of Shenjing, and said solemnly: "I, Huang Jingming, have received the emperor's favor in my life, and I have to be favored by the emperor first, and I have been entrusted with the important task of being alone, can An be able to do such a disobedient thing?" ”
In the face of Huang Jingming's answer, as a smart person, Wu Yizhi did not continue to ask, but gave up his hands and said solemnly:
"Now that the country has no owner, what knowledge can the Queen Mother have in the deep palace? Today, the son died, the world was turbulent, the safety of the society was hanging in the hands of the general, and the blessings and misfortunes of the common people were all in the thought of Ming Gong, and I hope that the general will solve it quickly, if it is late, it will change. ”
Wu Yizhi said very clearly, he hoped that Huang Fuguo could take advantage of this matter to go further, and at that time, his prestige in the court would be unmatched.
"In Yi's opinion, who can be appointed as the emperor of this Zhao family clan?"
The old man sitting on the bookcase asked casually.
"Everything is decided by Duke Ming, can the one in the palace dare to confront Duke Ming?"
Wu Yizhi bowed and replied.
He is very clear about his position, that is, a simple strategist. It's better for him not to mix this kind of thing.
"Old man, if there is Yizhi, it would be good if you had half a slippery head."
Looking at Wu Yizhi's appearance of "lest he avoid it", Huang Fuguo stretched out his hand and pointed at him and scolded with a smile.
"How can Yizhi's identity be compared to the eldest prince?"
Wu Yizhi replied with a smile.
"Okay, you tell the generals in the battalion to discuss the matter in the Chinese military tent early tomorrow morning."
"Whoa!"
When Wu Yizhi came out of the tent, Huang Jingming pondered for a long time, and finally got up and walked towards the rear army where the craftsman camp was located.
"I've seen the General!"
Seeing Huang Jingming coming, a group of craftsmen hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Excuse me."
After waving his hand to signal the craftsmen to get up, Huang Jingming asked, "I don't know if Mr. Tian is in the camp?" ”
A leading craftsman hurriedly said, "Tian is building equipment in the back. ”
Hearing this, Huang Jingming's eyes lit up, could it be that what new ordnance had been created?
As soon as he thought of this, Huang Jingming didn't say much, waved his hand, and walked directly towards the depths of the craftsman's camp.
"When, when, when......"
In the depths of the craftsman's camp, the sound of iron tools striking came into Huang Jingming's ears.
When the curtain was lifted, I saw an old man in a fur armor staring intently at the sword embryo in front of him, smashing the hammer in his hand on it.
In the midst of the sparks, the sound of hammers and sword embryos constantly colliding formed a passionate melody.
Huang Jingming didn't bother, just stood aside and waited quietly.
The old man didn't seem to notice Huang Jingming's arrival, and he still didn't raise his head to forge the sword embryo, and he didn't even change the rhythm of the hammer in the slightest.
It wasn't until the old man threw the sword embryo into the pool next to him again that Huang Jingming spoke:
"Jingming has seen Brother Tian."
Although he is a general of a country, he does not dare to be rude in the face of the old man in front of him.
The old man surnamed Na Tian laughed, handed the tools in his hand to the disciples on the side, and after signaling them to leave, Fang Zhengse said:
"Brother Jingming is busy, and if you can come to the old man today, you can come here without doing anything. Brother Jingming has the grace to save my life, and the righteousness of preservation in the Mo family, so if you have any requirements, just put it forward. If I Tian Weisheng can do it, I will never shirk. ”
This old man surnamed Tian is none other than Tian Weisheng, who is in charge of the Mo family ranger faction.
When the Mo family was assassinated and died, the Mo family was leaderless, and soon divided into three, namely the Ranger School, the Polemical School and the Youshi School.
The Ranger faction was the strongest, and was targeted by the Debaters and the Rangers faction, and suffered heavy casualties. As a great son of the ranger faction, Tian Weisheng had no choice but to take his disciples on the road of exile, and was finally besieged on the bank of the Canglong River.
At this point in danger, fortunately Huang Jingming rescued him, and he escaped.
After that, Tian Weisheng led a group of disciples into the Chu State and became a dark card in Huang Jingming's hand.
The reason why Huang Jingming was able to win consecutive battles was that in addition to his own strategy of war, the support of the Mojia rangers also played a very big role in it.
"Brother Tian is still so straightforward." Huang Jingming laughed, didn't talk nonsense, and directly explained his intentions, "I have heard that there are secret methods for exploring the will of heaven among the hundred schools. ”
Tian Weisheng saw Huang Jingming say this, his eyes were slightly condensed, and he pondered for a moment, before he said:
"Don't hide it from Brother Jingming, the old man does have this method in his hands. It's just that the old man asked a lot, has there been an accident in the Chu Dynasty? ”
Huang Jingming also simply lowered his voice and said:
"Brother Tian didn't hide it, Brother Tian didn't guess wrong, there was an urgent report from Shenjing, His Majesty died in the palace two days ago. Moreover, before His Majesty left, he did not leave any heirs. ”
"Your Majesty is dead? I see! ”
A hint of clarity flashed in Tian Weisheng's cloudy eyes.
"Brother Jingming can inform the old man of the names of the children of the clan who are qualified to inherit the throne, and the old man will cast their bronze statues overnight, and ask the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth for the location of the real dragon with a secret method."
"Okay, just according to what Brother Tian said." Huang Jingming nodded heavily, "Whether the fortunes of the Great Chu Kingdom will prosper or decline in the future, it will be handed over to Brother Tian." ”
After that, he took out a brocade silk that had been prepared a long time ago and put it in Tian Weisheng's hand.
On this brocade, the names of dozens of clan disciples are written, and among them, Zhao Yu's name is also impressive.
"I cast a bronze statue overnight, and tomorrow at noon, I will ask the general to prepare three livestock and six animals."
After Huang Jingming left, one of Tian Weisheng's apprentices walked into the camp and whispered in his ear:
"Juzi, why don't you tell the general, this kind of secret method, whether it is successful or not, will consume Juzi for at least ten years of life?"
Tian Weisheng shook his head slightly and said:
"The soldier died as a confidant, and the general took me in, so that my ranger line could have a foothold, what kind of kindness is this? I am an ink person, and I am even more of a giant, and I can't do this kind of thing to seek retribution. Without further ado, turn on the stove and make a fire, I'll be busy tonight! ”
Early in the morning of the second day.
When Huang Jingming came to the craftsman camp again, the first thing that caught his eye was dozens of half-human-high bronze statues.
In the early morning sun, the bronze statue shines brightly.
"Brother Jingming, fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life."
Seeing Huang Jingming coming, Tian Weisheng hugged his fists.
"Thank you, Brother Tian."
Huang Jingming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Have you prepared three animals or six animals?"
Tian Weisheng asked.
"It's all ready."
"Okay, without further ado, I'll go to the Fuyu Mountain, worship the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth, and ask the true dragon!"
Not long after, Huang Jingming led his henchmen and military generals and strategists, as well as a personal guard, with dozens of bronze statues, three animals and six animals for sacrifice, together with Tian Weisheng, to the peak of Fuyu Mountain.
