Chapter Ninety-Eight: Above the Temple

"Listen up. ”

Zhao Yan said: "The temple is not as good as the world, it is commonplace to deceive and intrigue, I used to patrol Shandong from the right imperial envoy, far away from the temple, although there is a war, but it is also distracted, and now I am back in Beijing as the secretary of the military department, and I am walking on thin ice again!"

Liang Yu asked tentatively, "Liang Yu heard that Wei Zhongxian... It can be said that the power is leaning towards the government and the opposition, I don't know how to interact with Lord Shangshu?"

Zhao Yan's face was slightly gloomy and said: "Hehe, I am inseparable from the eunuch party! Why did Mr. Xiao specifically mention this person?"

Liang Yu said: "My lord's words made me feel relieved. I know Wei Zhongxian's notoriety well, and I am afraid that adults will be with him. ”

Zhao Yan smiled and said: "Mr. Xiao understands the righteousness, Zhao Yan finally didn't see the wrong person." As Mr. Xiao said, Wei Zhongxian is dictatorial and sinister, and narrow-minded, if you hear his mean words in the future, the two of you must remember to endure the calm for a while... Mo lost a big deal because of a small loss. ”

Qin Ruoming said: "The words of the adults, the two of us have written them down. If this is the case, please mediate for the two of us. ”

"Hehe, that's nature. Zhao Yan promised, "After all, you are my people!"

Next, Zhao Yan gave a general introduction to the etiquette of meeting the emperor, no matter how big or small, he said a lot, and finally said it, so they let them go to rest early, because they still have to get up early tomorrow.

Sure enough, before dawn the next day, the three of them went out of Shangshu Mansion, and because Wei Zhongxian did not allow officials from the court to ride horses and sedan chairs, they had to walk all the way.

When they entered the palace, the sky was already bright, and the ministers had already arrived, all waiting for the court, while Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming, as outsiders, could only wait elsewhere to listen to the announcement.

After a while, I only heard someone in the palace shouting: "Xuandong Immortal Sect Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming are here!"

"Two, the emperor has summoned you, please come with me!" a little eunuch walked up to Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming and said respectfully.

"Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming of the Eastern Immortal Sect, meet the emperor!" After Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming entered the Qianqing Palace, according to Zhao Yan's explanation, they gave a big salute to Zhu Youxiao, the emperor of the Great Tomorrow Apocalypse.

I only heard the emperor's slightly immature voice coming from the throne in front of me: "Flat!"

"Thank you, Lord Longen!" After the two brothers stood up, they peeked up slightly, only to see that Zhu Youxiao was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and from the looks of his face, he seemed to be a little weak.

"I heard Zhao Qing's family say that you made great contributions when Ludong exterminated the demon thief Xu Hongru, and you must have a profound Taoism!" Zhu Youxiao said slowly, "Can you show it in front of the court?"

Liang Yu said: "If you go back to the emperor, the two of us are in the various factions of the Chinese Xuanmen, and their qualifications are still shallow, and their magical powers are not superficial, so they dare not show off their ugliness in front of the emperor, so as not to show off, and it will be embarrassing to meet the rest of the family members in the future..."

Before the words fell, I only heard the emperor's side, and said in a duck voice: "It's rare that the emperor has the honor to summon you today, let you show it, if you can, compare and compare! If not, how can you be called a superior?"

The two of them followed the sound and looked at it, only to see that the person who spoke was quite dignified, with a pair of triangular eyes, two curved eyebrows, an eagle nose and thin lips, and a full treacherous appearance!

The two guessed that that person must be Wei Zhongxian, the great eunuch of Bingbi, who was in charge of the country! Since this person spoke, it was not easy to shirk it for a while, so Liang Yu asked: "I wonder what kind of magical powers the emperor wants to see?"

Zhu Youxiao suddenly became full of interest and said, "Hmm... When I heard that you were coming, I specially brought some things from the palace! Why don't I lend them to you for display!" After speaking, a little eunuch came to Liang Yu with a wooden tray covered with a red cloth.

The little eunuch untied the red cloth, only to see a lifelike wooden bird below, "This is my new work today, how do you see how to display it?" Zhu Youxiao's tone at this time was almost the same as that of the rich man's brother.

Liang Yu's cultivation period is still short, and what he usually learns and uses is the internal family exercises to improve the realm and the killing moves to kill demons and demons, while Qin Ruoming has cultivated since he was a child, and over the years, he has also been exposed to some small techniques.

I saw Qin Ruoming holding the little bird in his hand, and the sword finger pointed at the bird's head three times, and the wooden bird turned out to be a living thing, and after flying half a circle in the air with its wings, it obediently landed on Qin Ruoming's shoulder!

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao clapped his hands and said, "Okay! It's really wonderful! This is also somewhat similar to the trick of street showmanship, I don't think it's enough to call it Taoism, I wonder what else you can do?"

Qin Ruoming responded, and the little bird flew out of the Qianqing Palace, and when he saw the sun, the palm-sized bird suddenly grew up, and its appearance also underwent earth-shaking changes, giving birth to a chicken head and swallow jaw, a snake-necked turtle back, and a five-colored fish tail, just like the legendary mythical bird Phoenix!

This hand caused all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty to be amazed, and the phoenix turned into a golden light after a chirp, and shot back into Qin Ruoming's hand, and everyone saw that it was still the wooden bird from before!

"Okay!" Zhu Youxiao applauded, and the ministers immediately echoed, and in their cheers, Qin Ruoming said to Liang Yu with his lips: It's just a trick...

After the cheers subsided, Zhu Youxiao looked at Liang Yu again and said, "What will you do?"

Liang Yu knew that it would definitely be his turn, so he finally came up with a countermeasure just now, he looked at the wooden structure of the Qianqing Palace from top to bottom, and said with a smile: "Liang Yu is ugly!"

After speaking, he sealed his hands, restrained his skills, and according to the method of the five elements, those wooden structures grew vines and leaves, and bloomed many flowers of different shapes, and the solemn Qianqing Palace was soon turned into a large garden under the decoration of these vines!

The Qianqing Palace, which carved beams and painted buildings, naturally couldn't do anything with his hands and feet, so Liang Yu's "Congenital Earthquake Elephant Fujinuma" also won a full house, and after he finished his work, everything immediately returned to its original appearance!

"Hahaha! Okay!" Zhu Youxiao said happily, "Reward! If you still have any magical skills..."

"Uh... Your Majesty..."A white-haired old minister suddenly said, "Lord Zhao just said about recruiting seedlings..."

Zhu Youxiao came back to his senses at this time, and he hurriedly said: "The two masters have such magical powers, are they willing to serve the country?"

Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming hurriedly said, "Willing!"

"Okay!" Zhu Youxiao Long Yan Dayue said, "Now that An Bangyan and Extravagant Chongming in Guizhou have risen, the imperial court has been unable to resist several expeditions, and although many Xuanmen people have been sent to deal with Miao Jiang wizards before, they have not been effective. Just now, Zhao Qing's family listed a total of eight countermeasures for the recruitment of seedlings, all of which are good policies! He also recommended the two of you to help in the war, are you willing to go?"

"The two of us are willing to go!" Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming had just finished agreeing, but suddenly heard Wei Zhongxian say slowly beside the emperor: "These brothers have commendable courage! But does the emperor still remember that after Wang Huazhen Guangning was defeated, these two people actually absconded in fear of crime, and later, although they were guilty of meritorious service, they couldn't help but suspect that the two were conspiring and playing tricks with the imperial court..."

"This..."Zhu Youxiao immediately lost his mind, and hurriedly looked at Wei Zhongxian, and before Wei Zhongxian could say more, Zhao Yan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty! When crusading against Xu Hongru, these two people sacrificed their lives and forgot their lives, and they had no second thoughts about the court, please ask the emperor to learn from it!"

Without waiting for Zhu Youxiao to speak, Wei Zhongxian still said nonchalantly: "Lord Zhao has misunderstood! I'm not saying that they are disloyal to the imperial court! I'm worried that if they encounter something, they will work together to do some unruly things and help each other in the army..."

Only then did Zhu Youxiao finally interject and said, "Wei Zhongxian, how do you think it should be arranged?

Wei Zhongxian smiled and said: "Your Majesty, these two people are so rare, they must be used well! After hearing about it, Jin wants to attack from Xifengkou, why don't you let Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming go to one side, how about it?"

Liang Yu had been suppressing his anger since Wei Zhongxian mentioned the loss of Liaodong just now, and when he heard that he was going to dismantle and resettle the two brothers, he finally couldn't hold back, and pointed at Wei Zhongxian and shouted: "You ..."

Qin Ruoming hurriedly grabbed Liang Yu, the latter did not continue, and Wei Zhongxian could not stop, he sneered: "Is this going to be a crime?"

Zhao Yan saw that things were not good, and hurriedly said: "Liang Yu is young and vigorous, and he failed to take the overall situation into account, please forgive the emperor!"

Wei Zhongxian glanced at Zhao Yan and said: "For the sake of their recommendation, I don't think the emperor will blame Liang Yu, but with this section just now, it shows that what Wei said just now is not false, right?

The white-haired old minister just now stepped forward and said: "The minister thinks that Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming are out of the same family, the relationship is good, and they will help each other on the battlefield, and they will inevitably be invincible.

Zhao Yan hurriedly said: "What Lord Yang said is extremely true, and the minister seconded it!"

Wei Zhongxian looked at the emperor, and then said to the ministers: "I, Wei, am shallow in my knowledge, and I just said it casually, but since the two of them are both pillars, each guarding one side, wouldn't it be better to use it?

The ministers were silent for a while, until Zhu Youxiao slapped the throne and said with great determination: "Make the best use of everything! Now that all parties need manpower, it is indeed a waste to put both of them in Miaojiang! It is better to divide and use them!"

As soon as the emperor's words came out, they immediately attracted a lot of discussion among the ministers:

"Your Majesty!"

"My lord has made a wise decision!"

"The two of them each guard one side, and they really make the best use of everything and make the best use of their talents!"

......

Zhao Yan looked at Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming with a dissatisfied expression, so he raised his voice slightly and said, "Your Majesty!

Wei Zhongxian didn't wait for Zhao Yan to finish speaking, then bowed down to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, it is a major matter for the country to invade the territory of foreign captives, although Liang Yu has commendable courage, but he is a little frizzy, while Qin Ruoming is older, and his means must be higher. ”

"Your Majesty!" Zhao Yan wanted to say more, but Zhu Youxiao suddenly got up and said: "What Wei Zhongxian said is exactly what I think! Just do it according to this, order Liang Yu to accompany the army to recruit seedlings, and Qin Ruoming to go to Xifengkou to help fight against Jin! Let's go down, I still have important business, so let's be here this morning!"

"Retreatβ€”"
