[696] A blow to the head

The hazy green smoke on the side hall of Tianyang Palace is clear. On the jade pillars that are finely carved with the allusions of the ancient gods, the black thread curtains are hung, dancing lightly in the wind in the green smoke.

The mica screen behind Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother was shrouded in a deep shadow, and the lifelike landscape patterns on the screen also became ethereal and far-reaching in the mist and shadows.

Xiao Shizhu, who finished eating a bowl of rice, put down the dishes and chopsticks, picked up a vegetarian towel and wiped the corners of his mouth indiscriminately, and hummed again.

Tai Feng has been in the palace for a long time, and Xiao Shizhu has not given him a decent job. Although he knew that this ghost had hated the Northern Yin Dynasty and the Emperor Xudu, Xiao Shizhu had never entrusted him with a heavy task.

The ghost mother didn't know what Xiao Shizhu was going to do? Until today, Xiao Shizhu has given orders again and again, all of which are orders to explain the affairs of the country after he entered Huangquan, and then he wants to summon this Taifeng, and the ghost mother immediately guessed that Xiao Shizhu was going to take this ghost into Huangquan.

The ghost mother, who had also finished eating in silence, put down her rice bowl and turned her head to look at her husband again, only to see Xiao Shizhu nodding silently.

And Xiao Shizhu, who was silent, frowned lightly in the deep groan, staring at the wisps of green smoke in front of him slowly drifting away, as if he was secretly thinking about something?

Xiao Shizhu wants to go to Huangquan and think everything through before going to Huangquan, and he can't be negligent and careless.

And the ghost mother couldn't help but look at her with a little admiration in her eyes. In her life, this kind of admiration for Xiao Shizhu is not the first time.

In the eyes of the ghost mother, her husband's consideration and plan have been exhaustive.

He just ordered that the current trip to Huangquan was to declare to the outside world that he was only going to Shuoyue Island and other places to inspect the border guards.

In addition to making the country stable under the condition of blocking the news, foreign enemies did not dare to rashly test the Nine Shadows abroad, which also made the Qingqiu Fox Country, an ally, not dare to suddenly have two hearts because of this.

Before going to the Yuque hunting ground, the ghost doctor in the palace had already been diagnosed, and the fox Ji Tu Yaoqing was pregnant with Xiao Shizhu's child, and Xiao Ling's competitor was about to be born.

Compared with the external troubles brought by the Northern Yin Dynasty, Xiao Shizhu was even more worried about the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, an ally, if he learned that he had left the Netherworld and learned that Tu Yaoqing was pregnant with his child, he began to plan a series of internal worries.

It was for these various reasons that Xiao Shizhu had to completely block the news of this trip. And by the way, Xiao Poria was supported in case of accidents.

And he decided to take Tai Feng with him, just because Tai Feng was a divine servant before he arrived in the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Since the time of the ancient gods, Taifeng has been a small servant of the gods who served around the Emperor of Xudu. And most of the ghost soldiers who entered Huangquan at the beginning were guards and cronies in the palace of the Emperor Xudu. And Tai Feng, who is proficient in some magic and ghost arts, has a lot of friendship with those ghost soldiers who entered Huangquan.

In this huge Nine Shadows Country, only Tai Feng and the ghost captives, and the ghost mother has a lot of friendship with those ghost soldiers. As the ghost mother and ghost captive who participated in and plotted to lure those ghost soldiers into the Yellow Spring, they could not enter the Yellow Spring. In order not to cause a counterproduct, the south needs to be guarded by ghosts, and the national capital also needs the ghost mother to sit in Yuque to stabilize all parts of the country.

The only thing Xiao Shizhu can take away is Taifeng. I hope that the ghost soldiers in Huangquan can still give this old friend a little thin noodles, so that Xiao Shizhu has a chance to persuade them to come out of Huangquan and fight the Northern Yin Dynasty.

Xiao Shizhu was able to take into account all aspects of this journey in just a few hours, and asked Xiao Fuling to assist the ghost mother in recruiting talents during the reign of the country, which was originally an opportunity for Xiao Fuling to cultivate his own power;

Even if Xiao Shizhu's journey to the Yellow Springs is gone, the national glory of the Nine Shadows Kingdom will still continue, the nightmare and fear of the Emperor Xudu will still exist, and the calls and actions to resist the tyranny of the Northern Yin Dynasty will continue. In this way, even if Xiao Shizhu has been gone for several months or even years and comes back, with loyal cronies such as Ghost Mother and Lu Wu in charge, the Nine Shadows Kingdom is still in his hands Xiao Shizhu.

And when you do all this planning, you can also choose your entourage. This ingenuity, majesty, and courage are by no means comparable to other ghost kings and ghost emperors in the Netherworld.

This made the ghost mother feel that Xiao Shizhu's years in the world were untimely, and he encountered an era of peace. If the world is as chaotic as the underworld today, his husband will certainly not be unknown in the world.

"I'm also going to bring the stone cassia and the female squirt. Xiao Shizhu was not silent, and said to his wife: "I have basically decided on the candidate, and the rest is the itinerary plan." ”。

"Hmm. I'm much more relieved to bring the stone cassia, this child has nothing to say about his ability or loyalty. I have been on the battlefield again and have some battlefield experience. The ghost mother bowed slightly, and then asked thoughtfully, "But why do you want to bring a female squirt?"

"Hey, hey. Xiao Shizhu showed an ambiguous smile, deliberately lowered his voice, and said to his wife with a sense of mystery: "Shi Cianming likes this female girl very much, and he just took the opportunity to match them. ”。

When the ghost mother saw her husband talking, her eyes flashed with a sly look, so she said, "It's more than that, right?"

"Of course, it's more than that. Xiao Shizhu looked at her and smiled: "We are secretly supporting Yinglong now, fighting guerrilla warfare in Fenglinzhou and the Northern Yin Dynasty. If the female leader can become the wife of my righteous son and our daughter-in-law, it will be better to win over the remnants of the bear country. ”。

Under the green smoke, Xiao Shizhu's cunning look lingering in his eyes did not decrease but increased.

And the ghost mother also smiled knowingly, and said slowly, thoughtfully: "I also think it's okay for the female to be Shi Cassia Ming's wife." This former princess also knows etiquette and is educated. As long as these two children are happy with each other, I am quite satisfied with this marriage. He always has an amiable smile on his face.

"Well, so I decided to take them to Huangquan with me, and by the way, let Shi Cianming get along with Nulu well. As soon as Xiao Shizhu finished speaking, he saw the palace gate, Qinglan with the one-armed Taifeng, crossed the threshold and walked into the hall.

Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother invariably put away the smile on their faces, and sat up......

Qingqiu Fox Country, located in the south of the Qingqiu Fox Cave in the national capital, in the land called the Seventy-two Peaks of the Earth, Tu Hongqi walked back and forth in the lobby of his military mansion.

The lobby was still dark, and the bright and warm sunlight outside the hall made it impossible to cross the threshold and enter the hall. In the lobby, there is only a cold and cold atmosphere, in the dimness, surrounded and diffused among the pillars engraved with gluttonous patterns.

Tu Hongqi, who was frowning, was full of anxiety and anxiety on his face. And the sound of his hurried and fast dull footsteps kept echoing in the cold lobby.

Recently, he has been secretly busy with one thing, constantly contacting the ghosts of the Tushan clan in the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, and secretly using Tu Gongqi's death to arouse the hatred of the clansmen, while attracting these Tushan ghosts to prepare to rebel.

Xiao Shizhu angrily beheaded his father-in-law, which led to such a result. In the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, the Tu Shan clan has a certain amount of power.

But Xiao Shizhu expected that the ghosts of the Tushan clan would have complaints, and he didn't expect them to rebel. And the Tushan clan people who are preparing to rebel have a very strong purpose, what they want is not only to oppose the Qingqiu Fox Country, but also to destroy the expeditionary force of the Nine Shadow Country, and after snatching the firearms of the Nine Shadow Country Army, they will seize the power of the Qingqiu Fox Country in one fell swoop.

And Tu Hongqi also has a selfish ambition, that is, to use this move to get the support of the Northern Yin Dynasty, so that he can establish a ghost country of his own. Let him himself also live the addiction of the ghost king's glory and wealth.

As soon as the expeditionary force of the Nine Shadows Kingdom arrives and enters the Qingqiu Fox Country, he will lead all the ghosts of the Tushan clan to start a rebellion.

At this time, Tu Hongqi was waiting for the information on the movements of the Nine Shadows Country Expeditionary Force, and he was a little impatient.

In the gloomy lobby, Tu Hongqi, who was walking back and forth, had a grim look on his face, mixed with the anxious look on his face, making the whole ghost look a little more hideous.

After he walked back and forth in circles like this for a few times, he couldn't help but exude a murderous aura on his body. In the lobby, it was suddenly even colder.

An invisible sense of oppression enveloped the lobby, filling every corner of the lobby, and also made the guards standing guard inside feel suffocated.

Tu Hongqi felt that the waiting time was so long.

He was still briskly walking down the hall, as if that would give him a little patience. As everyone knows, the anxious look on his face does not decrease but increases with the acceleration of his pace.

Just when his Tu Hongqi's patience was completely exhausted, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out after his fists were clenched, a Tu Shan clan's soul rushed towards the still cold lobby.

Due to his fast steps, the man's soul was unsteady on his feet, and he almost fell to the ground after a few stumbles after crossing the threshold.

Seeing his panicked expression, Tu Hongqi's eyes were filled with panic, and Tu Hongqi's already bad mood was even more gloomy. Standing in the middle of the lobby when his heart was slightly cold, Tu Hongqi suddenly felt bad.

He knew some Xiao Shizhu, and this brother-in-law of his was so ruthless that his father, Tu Gongqi, would only dare to do bad behind his back, and would never dare to blatantly Yin Xiao Shizhu.

Tu Hongqi decided to rebel, for his own selfish desires, he decided to rebel without hesitation, but he still didn't dare to despise Xiao Shizhu.

He looked at the people standing in front of him, breathless, and the uneasiness in his heart became a little heavier.

On the contrary, after Tu Hongqi, whose anxiety had faded, calmed down a little, the soul of the Tu Shan clan with beads of sweat on his head, finally took a breath, and said to Tu Hongqi in a hurry: "The expeditionary force of the Nine Shadows Kingdom has arrived in the middle of the country, but it has entered the capital. ”。

"Hmm. That Tu Hongqi nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom just entered the capital of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, and there was nothing to make a fuss about.

This expeditionary force of the Nine Shadows Kingdom was originally here to support the Qingqiu Fox Country and help the fox ghosts fight against enemies from all directions. Being the first to enter the capital is a normal thing in Tu Hongqi's view.

Tu Hongqi, who was standing in the shadows, the anxiety on his face had completely faded in an instant. But the clansman opposite him did not decrease but increased his anxious expression, and his forehead was still dripping with sweat and trickling down.

"Tu Hongqi, listen to me. The clansman was so anxious that he stomped his feet for a while, and then shouted to Tu Hongqi: "Great King, the Great King handed over most of the military power after the Jiuyou Army entered the national capital. Now most of the ghost soldiers in the country have been handed over to the commander of the Nine Shadows National Army. The high-ranking generals from all over the country are being ordered to rush to the national capital, preparing to accept the unified transfer of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. ”。

As soon as these words came out, Tu Hongqi, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt like he had been hit on the head, and when a tinnitus in his ears echoed, his head suddenly went blank.

His eyes widened with astonishment. And in his heart, the panic is like a torrent, which is washing his chest to the fullest.
