The autumn wind swept across the plain, the world was yellow, and the forests were dyed.

In the distance, there is an endless sky, thousands of miles of yellow clouds, faintly, projecting a beam of red light, just like a red tide as red as blood, accompanied by the roar of the waves, slowly rising out of the sea.

Approaching Shangjing, as far as the eye can see, the wheat fields are full of golden rape flowers and rice, as if dotted with a touch of gold out of thin air, the breeze blows gently, and the rice flowers are fragrant for ten miles, gradually spreading.

Farther away from the wheat field is a stretch of official roads, stretching as far as the eye can see, twenty, thirty, or even hundreds of miles. Because the Great Zhou royal family hunted in autumn every year, this official road from Jiuzhi Mountain to Shangjing was built flat and wide.

At this moment, three thousand "Tiefutu" heavy horsemen are galloping wildly on the official road, and the sound of "booming" horses' hooves is like thunder and momentum.

For a time, everywhere the horse's hooves reached, there was dust and smoke.

The three thousand iron floating slaughter, stretching and undulating, galloping like a dragon, immediately transformed into several black iron horse torrents, as if there was no end.

In the thunderous sound of iron hooves, countless flags were raised high, hunting and showing in the wind.

Among them, a heavily armored knight headed by him, with a strong physique and a burly figure, rode on a horse without moving, and carried the "Silver Dragon King Flag", a symbol of invincibility ,——and invincibility of the Jingbei army, on his shoulder.

The soldiers of Tiefutu crushed over the wheat stalks, jumped over the heavy wheat fields, and the west wind, like knives, cut the scales and iron sheets of the three thousand heavy horses, making a "fluttering" sound.

Today, the commander of the whole army of the Great Zhou Empire, the Great Sima, the Great General, the Tai Lieutenant, the Shangzhu State, the Generalissimo of the World's Soldiers and Horses, the Governor of the Chinese and Foreign Military, the Generalissimo of Xingtai in the North, and the 400,000 people in charge of the Jingbei Army,—— Xiao Changling, the king of Qin, personally led 3,000 "Tiefutu" heavy horses, and is about to enter Beijing to return to the dynasty and step into the majestic and magnificent Huanghuang Shangjing.

Soon, the cavalry of the 3,000 Tiefutu arrived at the Shili Changting outside the Jingdong Gate, which is located in the Gyeonggi area, only ten miles away from Shangjing, which can be said to be close at hand, and only one step away from the capital.

And now, the long pavilion in the eastern suburbs of ten miles, although it is far away, is still a strong wind; The weeds on both sides of the road were swept down by the oncoming autumn wind, and they made a loud noise.

Looking at it, on the outskirts of Beijing, above the vast wilderness, in an open area with a radius of more than ten miles, almost all of them are black and oppressive, and all the figures of Xuanjia are the same. Such a scene seems to be a group of extremely powerful Hai Dongqing flying on the vast land, with their wings suddenly open.

When the ten-mile long pavilion was reached, the military formation of 3,000 people in Tiefutu was immediately divided into five columns, like a cluster of black clouds, standing upright, slowly moving on the vast field, reflecting a cold light.

"Da Da Da ......"

At this moment, I only heard a crisp sound of horses' hooves in front of me.

Immediately afterwards, a small group of lightly armed people came out of the gate of the capital and galloped towards the location of Tiefutu, rolling up the yellow sand in the sky.

The number of people in this team is not much, only about a dozen. The leader is a man in a strong suit, riding a blue-maned royal horse, ink boots and arrow sleeves, wearing a dark wing crown, five-color patterns on his shoulders, a gray round-necked middle coat, and embroidered with gold python ornaments on the left and right.

And the dozen or so entourage behind him were all exactly the same costumes and attire, all of them had black arrow sleeves, light clothes and fast horses, and sabers hanging from their waists. These people are all secret agents from the Imperial City Division.

In the face of these sudden Imperial City Divisions, Long Xifeng, who was the deputy general of the Tiefutu Central Army, sat majestically on his horse, motionless, just slammed the reins of the horse and shouted loudly.

"Stop!"

Under the sonorous order, countless war horses neighed, breaking through the air. Three thousand Tiefutu heavy-armored knights, all on horseback, like a mountain peak, they were wearing black armor, reflected in the morning sun, reflecting a dark and cold light that devoured souls.

Suddenly, in the heavy armored cavalry formation of 3,000 people, a series of dense machine springs sounded, as well as the piercing sound of gold and iron colliding.

Among these sounds, there is the poignant collapse of the longbow, the solemnity of the crossbow machine opening the spring, the cold of the saber out of the sheath, and the cold of the spear held high......

In an instant, the majestic army of the Iron Floating Tu, the knife out of the sheath, the bow on the string, the terrifying cold on the soldiers, as if a naturally formed copper wall and iron wall, the dozen or so people opposite, in front of the murderous Iron Floating Tu, is a group of small ants.

When he was only eight hundred paces away from the Iron Floating Slaughter Brigade, the man in black at the head of the group rode in the lead, and suddenly reined in his horse and stood up, and a cloud of smoke and dust from under his hooves rushed straight to the forward row of heavy horses.

"Bold, His Royal Highness the King of Qin drove forward, how dare you gallop and collide with the king! Left and right with me to take! Long Xifeng's face was as cold and hard as iron, and he pressed the "Jingbei Knife" under his waist, staring at the man coldly, and his voice was like thunder.

"Yes!"

The two heavily armored knights on the left and right hurried forward, trying to capture this person.

At this moment, I saw that the man in front of me suddenly took off a royal gold medal from his waist, held it high, and said loudly.

"I am the special envoy of the Son of Heaven, and I ask to see His Royal Highness the King of Qin, please let the general know."

Before the words fell, before Long Xifeng could speak, he heard a loud shout from the Chinese army array behind him.

"The king has arrived—"

With that long shout, it rose to the sky, and suddenly, the two rows of iron floats in the front instantly dispersed. At this moment, almost all the heavily armored "Iron Floating Slaughter" naturally gave way to a spacious road.

Suddenly, the cavalry queue of Tiefutu, like a white cloud gate of heaven, was split open by a long sword, and the clouds and mist gradually dispersed, and it was faintly visible in the distance, like a fantasy of Qionglai Immortal Mountain.

At this time, under the escort of the five horsemen, Xiao Changling rode alone, wearing a white-clothed battle armor, with cold electricity in his eyes, and was mighty, holding the "Chengying" with his left hand, driving the "Sa Lu Zi", facing the sound of hunting and hunting, and slowly riding his horse forward. And one of the knights in the five horsemen also carried the "Tiger Wei Bu Zi Gilded Euphorbia" and rode to guard the left and right.

His Royal Highness King Qin's "Salu Purple" walked slowly with clear steps, and the sound of hooves was uniform, like calmness before the arrival of a storm.

At this moment, along Xiao Changling's resolute face, I couldn't see His Royal Highness the King of Qin, there was the slightest change in emotion, only indifference like a frozen lake.

Against the bleak autumn wind and the faint sunlight, Xiao Changling rode his horse and sword, led five cavalrymen, lined with his resolute tall figure, and passed through the layers of military formations of the Iron Floating Tu, which was particularly distinctive.

"Shhhh

An angry horse neighed.

But I saw that Xiao Changling was sitting on a horse, his eyes were as clear as water, and he gently pulled the reins, and the "Salu Purple" stood steadily, stopping in front of the Three Thousand Iron Floating Massacre, and remained unmoving.

Until this moment, Xiao Changling's expression was still a cold face, and between the two sword eyebrows, there was a cold killing intent; In the depths of a pair of pupils, there was a flickering sword aura, and it seemed that from his face, there was no trace of temperature, and it was always a gloomy and deep side.

Seeing Xiao Changling riding a horse, the man immediately turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to the horse of King Qin, and gave a long salute.

"Li Siyuan, the commander of the Imperial City Division, has seen His Royal Highness the King of Qin."

However, Xiao Changling's performance was still unfazed, riding high on the horse, holding his head high arrogantly, his eyes motionless, staring calmly ahead, he didn't even look at Li Siyuan, but coldly burst out two words from between his teeth.

"What?"

His Royal Highness King Qin's proud expression embarrassed the head of the Imperial City Division, but seeing it, Li Siyuan's face was slightly embarrassed, and he could only say patiently.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty heard that Your Highness has returned to Beijing, and specially ordered the officials to come to greet you, and Your Majesty has prepared a banquet in the palace to receive the wind for Your Highness."

After hearing this, Xiao Changling nodded slightly and picked up the reins with one hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for me, go into the city now."

After that, Xiao Changling turned his horse's head around, facing Long Xifeng, and was about to let him command the soldiers and horses into the city; At this time, Li Siyuan stepped forward and stopped Xiao Changling's "Sa Lu Zi", and said with some embarrassment.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty's will is for you to enter the city alone."

As soon as these words came out, without waiting for Xiao Changling to react, Long Xifeng on the side suddenly became angry, directly divided three by five, jumped off the horse, pulled out the "Jingbei Knife" on his waist, and went straight to Li Siyuan's chest.

"What do you say?! Let the king of my family enter the city alone, how can it be reasonable! ”

Facing the long knife against his chest, Li Siyuan was not afraid, put his hands behind his back, and said lightly.

"General, this is Your Majesty's will."

"You ......" Long Xifeng was even more furious, holding the hilt of the long knife tightly.

At this time, Xiao Changling, who was sitting on a horse, was expressionless, and waved his right hand lightly.

"The west wind, don't be rude."

"Yes, my lord." Long Xifeng's face was full of anger, and he could only put the knife into the sheath and turn over the horse again.

After Long Xifeng got on the horse, Xiao Changling looked solemn, lifted his robe behind him, and pressed the long sword "Chengying" tightly, and his fierce gaze was like a sharp arrow at this moment, shooting straight towards Li Siyuan.

"Li Duzhi has a problem, and I hope Duzhi will tell the truth."

"Your Highness's words are serious, and the lower officials must know everything, and they must say everything."

Suddenly, Xiao Changling sneered, and involuntarily appeared on his face, an evil charm like a rolling black cloud appeared, and then threw out a sentence.

"If you enter the city alone, how does Your Majesty want me to die, poisonous wine, or white silk."

It should be said that this sentence carries a lot of weight. If someone else says this, it will definitely be thought that this is a dissatisfaction with the Son of Heaven, as long as His Majesty says a word, he can be burdened with the crime of great disrespect; But now, this sentence is from the mouth of Xiao Changling, the king of Qin, and everyone thinks it is not strange, and he is the only one in the world who dares to say so.

As we all know, in the battle for succession that year, Emperor Xiao Changyao and King Xiao Changling of Qin were on the same page, and the two sides were tense. As far as the situation of that year is concerned, in terms of meritorious service and prestige, Xiao Changyao, who is the eldest son, is far inferior to Xiao Changling in his right years. It is precisely because of Xiao Changling's ability to be outstanding, and his achievements in destroying Chu and the Northern Expedition, when Emperor Xuan was alive, he also intended to set up Xiao Changling as the crown prince, but he couldn't stand the pressure of the ministers, so he followed the ancestral system of establishing a successor and standing up, and personally put on the crown of the crown prince for his eldest son Xiao Changyao.

Because of the defeat of the heir, coupled with the fact that he is now seizing love, he forcibly broke up the hard-working mandarin ducks of King Qin and the concubine. Therefore, for so many years, King Qin and His Majesty have always been brothers, King Qin has always been suspicious of His Majesty, and His Majesty also regards King Qin as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh.

In fact, as early as when the first emperor was alive, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had already seen that with Xiao Changyao being in the East Palace, on the temple of the Great Zhou, the Qin King Xiao Changling, who had made great contributions to the great cause of the unification of the dynasty, and Xiao Changyao, the prince of the country, the dispute between the wall became more and more apparent......

"Your Highness laughed, Your Majesty and you are blood relatives, how can Your Majesty harm you? Your Majesty is just thinking about your brotherhood and wanting to catch up with you, and nothing else. Li Siyuan said slowly.

Who knows, Xiao Changling's face was awe-inspiring, and he smiled coldly, and in that faint tone, there was a heroic spirit of an iron horse smashing Kyushu.

"It's not that Lone can't trust Your Majesty, I can't trust some small people, if they take this opportunity and want to harm Lonely, how can you let Lone protect himself?"

Then, Xiao Changling pondered for a moment, and gently held the hilt of Chengying's sword, and at this moment, his gaze became bright, and he left a sentence without thinking.

"Please tell Your Majesty that the three thousand Tiefutu must enter the city with Gu, and there are three thousand people, and none of them can be missing. If Your Majesty does not agree, Lone will lead the army back to Jinyang now, and he will never enter Beijing in this life, and Lone will do what he says. At that time, His Majesty will have to bear all the consequences, and he will be incompetent and powerless. ”

"Is King Qin going to resist the decree?" Li Siyuan opened his mouth in a deep voice and said.

Unexpectedly, when he heard the words "resisting the decree", Xiao Changling frowned slightly, stroked the mane of "Sa Lu Zi", and looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Resist?! Lonely has resisted the purpose for ten years, and I don't care about resisting one more time! The lonely head is here, and if Your Majesty wants to take it, you can send someone to take it! ”

Seeing that His Royal Highness the King of Qin was so uninspired, Li Siyuan was also helpless, so he had to slowly lower his head and said reluctantly.

"Okay, please wait here for a while, and go down to ask Your Majesty."

When Li Siyuan turned around and got on the horse and was about to leave, he heard Xiao Changling's sonorous sound again, which could be poured into his ears.

"Remember, loneliness only gives you an hour, and it will not wait for the obsolescence."

The more than ten people of the Imperial City Division slowly left everyone's sight.

Xiao Changling was alone, riding a horse in white, standing in the ten-mile long pavilion, his eyes were deep, staring at the tall Shangjing City in the distance, and he couldn't help but be fascinated, that was the place where he grew up, and it was also the sad place that took away his love. After ten years, looking back, the capital is so strange and alienated.

At this moment, the woman he had loved for many years seemed to appear in front of his eyes again, and that smile Xiao Changling still can't forget.

"Wan'er, I'm back."

The afterglow of the west wind rolled up the general's snow-like white clothes and swept away the dust on his body.

……

Upper Beijing.

The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

In the quiet imperial study, the lights are brilliant, there is a carved dragon royal case in the middle, and there are more than ten white marble pillars standing around, which are engraved with the pattern of ten thousand horses galloping, lifelike, vivid.

The deep palace is like the sea, and a bright light illuminates the huge imperial study.

At this moment, Xiao Changyao, the son of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who was wearing a dark blue dragon pattern robe, was sitting in front of the desk, holding the imperial pen Zhu Pi, and meticulously reviewing the chapters.

On the imperial case in front of the emperor, neatly and neatly, there are a number of music chapters, dense folds and bamboo slips, all kinds of brushes inserted in the sea of pens, as dense as a forest, and two unique sealed wooden boxes, which are more than a dozen copies of the secret play stamps, sealed with fish fat, this is the special secret wooden box inside the Imperial City Division.

In the face of the mountains of government affairs and countless pieces of music, Xiao Changyao's face remained unchanged, his eyes were as deep as the sea, and he was still selflessly reviewing the chapters.

At the bottom of the imperial case, Li Siyuan, who was wearing the black official uniform of the Imperial City Division, stood there quietly, bowing his head and eyebrows, without saying a word.

"Never enter Beijing."

Suddenly, Xiao Changyao, the Great Zhou Emperor who was sitting on the imperial case, remained silent, and the cinnabar pen in his hand was lightly hooked, leaving two scarlet eye-catching circles on top of a piece of music.

"Yes, Your Majesty, that's what King Qin said." Li Siyuan answered.

In this regard, Xiao Changyao was not surprised, and the movement of the Zhu Pen in his hand did not stop, and he could still hear the rustling sound of the tip of the pen, but the tip of his nose "hummed" slightly.

"Oh, that's kind of funny, he's talking to me."

"Your Majesty, the King of Qin also said, and said......" Li Siyuan wanted to speak but stopped.

Seeing Li Siyuan spitting and spitting, Xiao Changyao looked at the chapter on the case, didn't even raise his head, still holding a cinnabar pen in his hand and annotating it word by word, and then asked casually as if he was a little careless.

"What else?"

"Your Majesty, King Qin also said that he will only give you an hour to think about it, and he will not wait for it to be outdated."

It was only at this time that Xiao Changyao's eyebrows were tightly locked together, and he finally raised his head, and the cinnabar pen in his hand was suspended in the air.

"An hour?"

But soon, the solemnity on Da Zhou Tianzi's face was swept away in an instant, he smiled self-deprecatingly, picked up the piece on the case again, and flipped it up casually.

"This younger brother of mine is still messing around more and more like before. He regarded going to the capital as something, he came when he wanted, and left when he wanted. What does he mean by this, is he bargaining with me? ”

"Then ......, Your Majesty, how to reply?" Li Siyuan raised his eyes slightly, looked directly at the young emperor on the dragon throne, and asked softly.

Xiao Changyao put down the red pen and gently rubbed his eyebrows, as if he was very tired; After pondering for a long time, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ninety-Five Venerable spoke leisurely.

"Promise him."

"What, Your Majesty, promise him, this ......" Li Siyuan's eyes widened, and he looked at the man on the throne with a look of disbelief.

I only heard a soft sound of "pop", Xiao Changyao put the music in his hand on the imperial case, then nodded, and said word by word.

"Yes, promise him, otherwise, everyone in the world will think I am stingy."

Although even His Majesty said so, Li Siyuan was still a little worried.

"Your Majesty, since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Taizuwen has established the ancestral system, and the vassal kings are not allowed to enter the city when they enter Beijing, precisely to put an end to the disaster of Xiao Wall. And now, the King of Qin has his own army and wants to use 3,000 iron horsemen to blackmail His Majesty, which is really unbelievable, why does Your Majesty still ......"

didn't wait for Li Siyuan to finish speaking, but saw Xiao Changyao smile.

"I understand what you're saying. But don't forget, this Great Zhou is my world; This court is also my court. If it was in the north, I might not have anything to do with him, but now, I can't help him, what kind of storm can a tiger in a cage set off? With his mere 3,000 iron floating slaughter, he also wants to shake my country! I want him to let Xiao Changling die in Shangjing. ”

After the words fell, Xiao Changyao couldn't help laughing, in this laughter, there is the self-confidence of being a generation of emperors, the lofty dignity of the Ninety-Five, and the majesty of him as the lord of the world.

Soon, Xiao Changyao stopped laughing, picked up the piece again, and waved his right hand at Li Siyuan, who was standing at the bottom.

"Go and proclaim the message."

"Commandment." Li Siyuan understood and was ordered to leave the imperial study.

At the same time, in the Chengqian Palace, Xie Wanxin leaned against the window, her eyes were full of beauty sorrow, looking at the fiery maple leaves outside the window, slowly falling from the branches, and falling full of a pool of red.

She frowned and looked at a white jade pendant in her hand. The pattern painted on the jade pendant is a beautiful picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water. Xie Wanxin looked at it for a long time, stunned, and unconsciously, a smile like a flower appeared under her lips.

"Jiro ......"

……

The next day, the imperial edict arrived, and the Son of Heaven ordered the book and the door to draw up the edict, in the name of the imperial court, promulgated the imperial edict, and ordered the left servant of the book to shoot Xun Zheng, holding the edict, to go to the army of the king of Qin, and read the holy decree.

The imperial edict said that the imperial court ordered Xiao Changling, the king of Qin, to carry 3,000 iron floating slaughter to the pilgrimage.

Early in the morning, the sun rises in the east.

The morning glow breaks through the fog, and the fish belly is white in the east.

On September 7 of the first year of Tiansheng, the grand ceremony to welcome the King of Qin into Beijing was held as scheduled outside the Yongning Gate.

The imperial city, Yongning Gate, red silk hangs high, wind chimes burst, a group of flowers.

From the Yongning Gate from the ten-mile long pavilion, the royal royal road that is more than ten miles long, all sprinkled with clear water, opened the road with a halogen book, and the bright red carpet is paved with the sandwich road.

The 1,000 Imperial City Imperial Forest Army, all of which are golden helmets and golden armor, holding halberds in their hands, are neatly organized along the way, guarding on both sides of the imperial road, welcoming the army of King Qin. Wherever the Imperial Forest Army passed, all the people outside the city avoided it.

At the same time, the Son of Heaven ordered that on the day of the suburban ceremony, all the ministers and officials below the prince should bow down to welcome the King of Qin, and Xiao Changling commanded three thousand "Tiefutu" heavy horses and entered the city in turn.

At noon, this world-renowned suburban welcome ceremony officially began!

His Royal Highness the King of Qin's personal guard iron cavalry, known as the sharpest "attack spear" in the 400,000 Jingbei army, once with 800 tiger Ben athletes, set a record of chasing and killing 50,000 Rouran army for three days and three nights of brilliant achievements of heavy armored iron cavalry ,—— 3,000 "Iron Floating Tu", under the personal command of King Xiao Changling of Qin, mighty, like wind and thunder, sailed into the capital of the Great Zhou.

Three thousand iron floating slaughter, with the earth-shaking might, followed the royal banner of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and stepped into the Yongning Gate.

Looking from afar, I saw that there were three thousand iron floating slaughter, the sound of iron horses shook and thundered, and the handsome flags along the road were raised, and they were showing their spirits, implying murderous aura.

The majestic, scarlet and eye-catching "Silver Dragon King Flag" rose high and rolled up and down in the autumn wind.

Where the royal flag swept, Yulin bowed his head, and hundreds of officials bowed their heads.

Unexpectedly, after ten years of spring and autumn, the silver dragon king flag entered Beijing again.

On the day when he stepped into Beijing and landed in the palace, he was the commander of Jingbei who made outstanding contributions to the Great Zhou Dynasty and commanded the three armies. Xiao Changling took off the white-clothed battle armor that was stained with dust and blood, and personally changed into a new leather dress with the color of the prince's clothes.

Under the autumn colors, the sun is shining.

Heroic and majestic, Xiao Changling, the king of Qin, wears a crown of dragons with a tattooed dragon on his head, and wears a nine-chapter dragon valerian gold court dress, a standard prince crown suit. On his left side of his waist, the cold and murderous "Chengying" long sword still hung from his waist.

In this way, Xiao Changling led three thousand iron horsemen, wearing his prince's skin, riding his "Sa Lu Zi", carrying his "Chengying" sword, wrapped in an awe-inspiring heroic spirit, and stepping on the palace.

……

White, armor.

In the past, the sky was long and horizontal.

Today, the nine-fold palace is full of spirit.
