The Years Are Long (3)

When Xiao Pingyan ascended the throne, he had not yet reached the age of establishment, and the treasury was really not rich, so he squandered the silver money in the emperor's private treasury elsewhere, and did not rush to build a mausoleum for himself.

At such an age, I wouldn't have thought about what happened after death.

Later, although his body deteriorated, he became more and more taboo.

The courtiers didn't dare to touch this mold, after all, once it was mentioned, what was the difference between cursing him?

So much so that to this day, there is no suitable mausoleum for burial.

After several discussions, the Ministry of Rites and Si Tianjian proposed that the coffin be placed in the funeral palace of Nanling first, and then relocated after the emperor's tomb was properly built.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu looked at the clan relatives on the left, looked at Queen Zhou behind the curtain, and finally fell on Shen Yu, who had never spoken, and asked tremblingly, "How?" ”

He was an old man, and after three dynasties, he had never suffered such a sin.

I only regret that I didn't be ruthless at the beginning of the year, and handed over the fold to the old man and returned to his hometown.

Shen Yu held the Chinese book in his hand, even if he didn't bother to ask about it, he had to listen patiently. He looked at Shang Lao Shangshu's earnest gaze and said, "If you don't have a more suitable way, you might as well act accordingly." ”

Empress Zhou also said: "Yes." ”

King Li slowly put down the teacup, his fat body sat up a little straighter, and said with a smile: "Shen Xiang has spoken, so let's do it." ”

As soon as the conversation changed, he said to the Ministry of Rites, "It's just that at that time, who will officiate at that time?" It can't be the fifth prince who stumbles when he walks and can't speak clearly. ”

Lao Shangshu wiped his sweat, and Gongsun Xi said: "In the previous dynasty, there was an old example of the new emperor being young and being the main sacrifice by the royal family. The prince is not only a clan relative, but also an elder of the first emperor, and he doesn't mind doing it for him. ”

"It doesn't hurt for the king to go. It's just that whoever is the prince has no reason to drag it on forever. King Li snorted, "Gongsun Xi, you insist that the edict in the hands of the concubine was forged by a traitor, and the three divisions will interrogate these days, can there be the desired result?" ”

"This matter is very important, and there is no reason to make a foolish decision." Gongsun Xi said unhurriedly, "Yesterday I caught the witch doctor who was recommended to the first emperor by the concubine, and there will be a conclusion in the near future, and I also ask the prince to be calm and not impatient." ”

King Li got up slowly: "Then the king will wait and see." ”

It was raining continuously, and the leg injury recurred, and Shen Yu walked slower than before when he left the palace.

He didn't use the chamberlain to serve, he held his own umbrella and walked slowly.

King Li slowed down and looked at his legs and feet: "Since Shen Xiang is powerless, why don't you stay at home and cultivate?" ”

"There is a memory of Lord Lao," Shen Yu looked at the raindrops rolling down the edge of the umbrella, and said lightly, "The minister has this intention." ”

The relationship between the two has never been good, and when they meet by chance, they are just two greetings like this. But this time, King Li didn't just forget it.

He looked at the palace gate not far away, and said quietly: "If you can really stand by and watch, it would be better." ”

Shen Yu said: "What does the prince mean by this? ”

"Although the Gongsun clan was once prominent, but in recent years the momentum is not as good as before, and now the court is standing on the side of Gongsun Xi, is it because of him, because of the Zhou family, or because of you ......" King Li dragged out his voice and suddenly smiled, "This king is not a fool." ”

Shen Yu turned his face sideways and glanced at it lightly.

In the dense hazy smoke and rain, his expression did not change, and there was no sharp anger in his eyes, and he was as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

It's just bottomless.

King Li paused, subconsciously looked behind him, and saw the guards following step by step, and his heart was put down in an instant.

When he turned back again, Shen Yu had already walked away.

"From now on, change the fish intestines to serve. Whether it's the courtyard in the palace or the secret guard when I go out, I will transfer more people......" King Li rubbed the ivory wrench on his thumb and commanded incessantly.

His hunch has been accurate all these years.

Just when Fang Cai's eyelids kept jumping, he realized very sincerely that Shen Yu really wanted his life.

Although Gongsun Xi also has wisdom and talents, and has a lot of means in the political struggle of the court, he has not been seriously stained with blood on his hands, and he really lacks the strength to break the kettle at a critical moment.

No matter how proud he was in the court, King Li did not regard him as his opponent in his heart.

But Shen Yu is different.

This is a person who crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood, no matter how decent he looks, no matter how gentle he is, he can't change that he is an outlaw in his bones.

Such a madman is always feared.

King Li is a very life-sparing person, especially when he is old, and he is even a little suspicious.

Since talking to Shen Yu, he has stayed in the heavily guarded mansion almost day and night, even if someone he has known for a long time comes to visit, he has to go through a strict interrogation.

But with the ensuing Qianzi Palace and the Stopping Ling Nanling, even if he is not the main priest, he always has to show up as a member of the clan.

At such a critical juncture, if you can't get sick, you will undoubtedly tell everyone that you are afraid.

When Yin got up at the moment, the night was as thick as ink, and a crescent moon hung in the sky.

The favored concubine served him and changed into the most solemn court clothes, but when he knelt in front of him and wore ornaments, he was unprepared, and he actually fell from his hands.

Although it fell on the thick Persian carpet, it was unscathed.

But this unlucky omen still touched the already sensitive nerves of King Li, and he kicked her heart mercilessly: "Waste things." ”

The concubine fell to the ground, clutching her heart and coughing, red blood spilling from the corners of her lips.

King Li was pierced by the blood, and said angrily: "Drag her down!" ”

The chamberlain obeyed the order, as if carrying a worn-out sack, and quietly dragged the person out.

Anyone could see how restless he was at this time.

The maidservants turned pale and trembled, for fear that they had done something wrong and lost their lives in the blink of an eye.

Only the black-clothed guard did not change his face, and said with a glance: "The people who secretly watched Shen Yu spread the news, except for his cronies who rushed to Nanling in advance, there was no other movement." Nanling's side has also been arranged according to your instructions. ”

"Yu intestine, you stay with this king, and you must not leave for a moment." King Li sniffed the soothing incense deeply, his tense spirit eased slightly, and he said coldly, "I will have to make him die in Nanling to prevent future troubles." ”

Fish intestines hang their heads and say yes.

When we went to the Imperial City, it was not yet dawn.

The wheels ran over the empty long street, breaking the tranquility, and the luxurious carriage inlaid with gold and jade followed by more than a dozen people, all of whom had been snare by the palace over the years

The master of the .

Their reactions were indeed much faster than ordinary people, and when the sound of arrows breaking through the air sounded, their hands were already pressed on their long swords.

No matter how fast the reaction is, it is always faster than the feather arrow.

The next moment, the guards fell to the ground, followed by the coachman.

At this time, there was a faint morning light in the sky, and in the thin night, several people who were also dressed in black poured out, but their hair was tied with bright red headbands, which did not match the outfit of the whole body.

The guards didn't have time to think about it, and drew their swords to meet them.

Immediately afterward, they understood the purpose of the headband.

The real trick is not the Assassin who fights in front of him, but the man who shoots a bow and arrow out of nowhere.

This person must be excellent in archery, and have the ability to penetrate Yang in a hundred steps, so that in such a melee, he can distinguish friend and foe with only one hairband, and there is no chance of arrows.

Every arrow is like a talisman.

Fish intestines hid sideways behind the car, squinting, and finally found out where the person was after another of them fell.

It's just that before he had time to leave, King Li's trembling voice sounded through the carriage: "Fish intestines, quickly escort this king away." ”

He expected Shen Yu to do it to himself, but he didn't expect that it would be here and now.

When the sound of the fight sounded, he was already so panicked that he had no master, and he couldn't think of any other way except to lock the carriage tightly.

"Lord Wang, the horse is dead, and he can't go." Yu Gu didn't hesitate much, and said in a deep voice, "For today's plan, I can only gamble." ”

Bet that he will be able to kill the man who shoots the arrow before his own guards are slaughtered.

In an instant, the intestines of the fish had swept past the crowd, dodging the arrows that were being shot, and the rabbit fell and climbed up the tall building.

For those who practice martial arts, there are not many who are proficient in everything.

For example, the old general Xiao used to be second to none in riding and archery kung fu, but he couldn't talk about how powerful he was in close quarters.

The Mobei boy next to Shen Yu who was called Shang Lu had already gone to Nanling with his private seal to transfer troops, and others were not afraid.

As long as he can climb the tall building alive, he will definitely be able to take the archer's life in an instant.

The other party should also be aware of the danger, and several arrows are coming at him in succession.

The fish intestine dodged sideways, and the last arrow grazed his cheek, blood splattered, and he climbed the railing and turned upstairs without stopping for half a minute.

and even faintly excited because of this blood.

His heart was beating violently, and he drew the soft sword at his waist and stabbed at the man like a lightning bolt.

The expected blow did not hit as expected, and the sound of swords colliding rang out.

The fish intestine went through a few tricks with him, and only then did he recognize it by the faint morning light that the person in front of him was Shen Yu.

Although Yu Yu had heard of Shen Yu's deeds in the past, when he arrived at the Li Palace, Shen Yu was already the powerful minister, wearing a wide robe and wide sleeves, polite and polite, and what he held in his hand was not a sword, but a pen and paper.

It's hard to associate him with the major general.

Until now.

His sword is not rampage by brute force, like a ghost, unexpected, and unguardable.

The fish intestine was also ordered to explore the reality of Shang Lu, and soon recognized that this was the sword move used by the young man in Mobei.

Although it is not as fast as his, the key point is more sophisticated and natural, as if it has been rehearsed

Thousands of times, obviously quite accomplished.

The fish intestine was shocked, and he almost leaked a flaw, he calmed down and said quietly: "You can't last long." ”

With Shen Yu's current body, even if he can survive for a while, he is still the last of the strong crossbow.

"That's right," Shen Yu's pale face was rarely bloody, and he admitted the matter calmly, and wiped away the blood oozing from his forearm without hurrying, but said calmly, "You shouldn't have been hit by that arrow." ”

After realizing that something was wrong, Yu Gu's face suddenly changed, and he felt ashamed: "You tease me!" ”

The original accurate feather arrow repeatedly missed, and it was not until the end that it was about to break his cheek, it turned out that it was not that he was lucky enough, nor that the other party missed, but that it was intentional.

The more intense the ensuing fight, the faster the poison will erupt.

Without further delay, he poured out a handful of medicine from the porcelain bottle he was carrying, and swallowed it all.

But it still didn't help, and he fell to the ground.

Shen Yu turned a blind eye to the injury on his forearm, soaked his clothes with blood, and seemed to smile: "It's just that I haven't touched the sword for a long time, so I'll try you." ”

As he spoke, the fight on the ground was nearing its end, and King Li, who was colorless in the carriage, was forcibly dragged out.

From beginning to end, but a cup of tea is a little bit more work.

Shen Yu cleanly solved the fish intestines, picked up the bow, drew another feather arrow, stretched the bow, and let go.

The arrow was like a meteor, hitting the center of King Li's eyebrows, and the tail feathers were still trembling.

"Send people to the palace gate. Tell Gongsun Xi that when the spirit is sacrificed, it will be announced to the hundred officials and the world, and the five princes will be passed on to the five princes according to the dying instructions of the first emperor. Shen Yu stood on top of the tall building, overlooking the thousands of houses in the capital, "If anyone has any objections, send him to be martyred for the first emperor." ”

If he had been in the palace that day, he would have acted like this a long time ago, and he would not have been dragged down by this group of clans until now.

Gongsun Xi did a bad job, and he deserved to suffer these days of tossing.

"Yes." Cheng Ying answered and sent the gold sore medicine he had with him.

Shen Yu didn't answer, looked at the injury, frowned, and said, "Isn't it too light?" ”

Cheng Ying was stunned: "What? ”

"It's nothing," Shen Yu dusted off his sleeves, "I'll bandage it when I go home." ”！
