[943] Invitation
The dazzling cloudy light of noon shines into the main hall, and the gold seal on the bookcase is golden in the cloudy light, and it is not suitable to look at it directly.
The magic contained in the golden seal exudes a little bit of yin energy.
The yin qi was light but not thick, but no one could see it at a glance, and there was some kind of divine and ghost magic blessed in it. And under the dispersion of yin qi, the mysterious talisman engraved on the gold seal also flashed with golden light.
Xiao Lingling picked up the big seal and looked at the bottom, only to see that the bottom surface was smooth all around, only in the middle, as if it was carved with something like an iron chain, intertwined and entangled.
The power of gods and ghosts, in the restrained pattern, can be called out at any time.
"Okay, with this thing, you can make those prisoners who have committed treason but have not yet borne the blood debt and need to be punished lightly. Xiao Fuling let out a long breath and put down the golden seal.
Her body and mind, which had been tense for the past few months, were also relaxed at this moment.
After dealing with the prisoners, she will be able to return to the capital.
Enough of playing, and things were done for her father, Xiao Shizhu, but Xiao Fuling suddenly felt a little homesick.
She handed the golden seal to the official of the Chacha Division who came with Xiao Shizhu's own soldiers, and said, "According to the list given to you by Lord Thrush, this mark will be printed for the prisoner." ”。
After saying this, Xiao Fuling turned her head to look at the thrush on the side: "All the prisoners who are imprinted with their seals, let them meet with their families under the supervision of the jailers, and then send them to various places where infrastructure needs to be built to do hard labor. After serving their sentences, they are released and sent home. Tell their families not to talk nonsense, otherwise they will also be punished for treason. ”。
"No. After all the ghost officials answered in unison, Thrush sent the other officials down.
After a moment, the other demons left the main hall. The main hall, which was suddenly empty, became even more spacious.
Left in this empty main hall, only thrush and Xiao Poria were left, and in addition to Xiao Poria eating, sleeping, pooping and peeing, they all followed Xiao Poria closely, Fan Jinhong who followed him like a shadow.
Xiao Fuling swaggered and sat behind the high case, sat down where the thrush used to sit, and casually looked through the documents stacked on the table.
Fan Jinhong also stood only about three feet away from her.
"Lord Weng. Seeing that there were no outsiders around, he was opposite Xiao Fuling, and the thrush that was separated from him was straight to the point, and he did not hesitate to say the right thing to say after sending him away: "The lord secretly believed me this morning, saying that he still has something to do, and these traitorous prisoners are all somewhat related to the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, so in order not to disrupt his plan, it is best for us to deal with it in a low-key manner after receiving the golden seal." Therefore, the minister would like to ask the lord Weng, since the lord has such a puzzling request, is the execution of those prisoners who should be killed slow?"
As he spoke, the thrush looked at Xiao Fuling, who was casually looking through the papers, and there was already a trace of worry in her eyes, which slowly overflowed her eyes little by little.
She was nothing more than afraid of the thrush, so that she had a lot of dreams at night, giving the families of those condemned prisoners the opportunity to bribe the officials. There is no impermeable wall in this world, and it is the same in the underworld and in the yang. Once the family of a death row prisoner bribed the undetermined ghost officials and ghost officials, came a tanuki to replace the prince, and replaced the real death row prisoner, this secret arrest operation, which is still impenetrable, will be made public.
For this reason, the news will leak out and spread to the Qingqiu Fox Country.
Once the Qingqiu fox jumps over the wall and strikes first, the Nine Shadows Kingdom will be passive.
What's more, the ghost officials and ghost officials of the Nine Shadows Country are not all monolithic; there must be brave men under the heavy reward, which family member of a death row prisoner can get the right price as long as the family background is solid, and the thrush does not dare to guarantee that the ghost officials and ghost officials under his command will not see the intention of making money.
Fortunately, Xiao Poria, who knew Xiao Shizhu better, was here, and Thrush couldn't think of the best way, so he simply exchanged views with Xiao Pori.
At the end, the thrush added: "I don't know what the lord wants me to do with those death row inmates?
But Xiao Fuling was not in a hurry, her face was still calm, she picked up the documents on the high case at random and continued to look at them. She doesn't seem to be curious about what kind of medicine is sold in her father's gourd.
But in fact, in his heart, he still thought about it.
After a while, Xiao Fuling had secretly figured out a way, so she slowly opened her mouth to the thrush: "My father's instructions are obvious, you can kill death row prisoners according to the law, but you must be executed in secret." If you have family, you can also have their family meet with them before the execution, but don't mention the death penalty. The ghost yamen secretly collected the bones, and when the matter was completely settled, they sent the bones back to their families. In other words, the world is peaceful, and this matter has not yet reached the point where it needs to be made public, so don't make a noise. ”。
But that's not exactly what my father meant. Seeing that the thrush nodded thoughtfully, frowning and thinking about something, Xiao Fuling, who had been thinking about it for a while, added: "He should ask you to keep a few important prisoners under strict control and not kill them for the time being." When the matter is completely settled, when the matter is to be made public, these witnesses are still needed, so that they can apologize in person like the Nine Shadows Kingdom and accept the judgment of our ghost people. ”。
After saying that, Xiao Lingling had already put down the Chinese book in her hand, and after placing the thrush in place, she stood up.
"Then Lord Thrush, I won't bother you much if you're busy with business. Xiao Fuling said this, bypassed the bookcase, and walked slowly towards the outside of the main hall: "Then I'll go and watch the ghosts and mark the prisoners, you can do your business." ”。
Fan Jinhong, who was behind him, followed silently.
And the thrush also turned to face Xiao Fuling's back, and saluted slightly: "Congratulations to the lord." ”。
Xiao Fuling, who had already raised her leg to cross the threshold, didn't say anything, just raised her hand and made a goodbye gesture to the thrush behind her.
But Xiao Fuling, who walked out of the main hall, did not go to the dungeon, but turned a corner and took Fan Jinhong towards the backyard.
But as soon as she went out, Xiao Fuling kept her brows locked.
She was calm before, and she was not interested in her father's plan, but in fact, she was still secretly curious in her heart, what plan was her father Xiao Shizhu going to do?
Soon, Xiao Fuling, who was thinking, stepped silently into the backyard. When she came to the door of her felt tent, she suddenly stopped, continued to frown, and suddenly asked Fan Jinhong beside her: "Fan Jinhong, what do you say my father is going to do?"
Fan Jinhong was stunned by her question, and after a while, he came to his senses and thought carefully.
Xiao Fuling waited patiently for a moment, Fan Jinhong shook his head blankly, and said thoughtfully: "I don't know, the lord has always done things unfathomably, but most of them have something to do with the east." ”。
Fan Jinhong followed Xiao Shizhu to do things, not for a day or two. Knowing that this human soul can indeed endure it, it will definitely make the opponent double it afterwards.
This time, the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom secretly gave Xiao Shizhu and Jiuyou Guo, and suffered such a big secret loss, although it was stopped in time, it also suffered a lot of losses, and if Xiao Shizhu could swallow this breath, it would really be hell.
Now the years of the Nine Shadows Kingdom and the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom are quiet, but one day when Xiao Shizhu wants the Qingqiu Fox King to repay his debts, he will not be soft-hearted.
Fan Jinhong thought about what Xiao Shizhu was going to do, I was afraid that it would only be to prepare for the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom to repay its debts in the future. But he really can't guess the specifics.
Xiao Fuling glanced at Fan Jinhong, who was still a little confused, and Fan Jinhong, who was hanging on her face, didn't ask any more, she picked up the tent door and got into her own tent.
Fan Jinhong didn't think much about it anymore, and didn't follow Xiao Fuling in, so he turned his back to the felt tent and stood quietly outside the door to stand guard for Xiao Fuling......
When Xiao Fuling was wondering what his father was going to do, an immortal chariot of the Nine Shadows Kingdom was flying over the smoke, and it would not disperse in the north of Yunmengzhou all year round. Sticking to the north coast of Yunmengzhou, it flew all the way to the east.
In addition to carrying the heavy gifts to the Qingqiu Fox King, there were also envoys sent by the Nine Shadows Kingdom to envoy the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom.
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Wu felt that since it was an envoy to an ally, even if this alliance was just a subsidiary of the Nine Shadows Country, he should be polite and courteous.
He didn't feel at ease with other ghosts, so he had to invite a long piano who was good at etiquette.
Since Changqin was no longer the crown prince and joined the Nine Shadows Kingdom, he realized that he was not a capable person who could govern the country, and he could not control the army. But he is good at formulating etiquette, so he simply proposed to Xiao Shizhu to do what he is good at.
And Xiao Shizhu also wanted to rule the hundred ghosts in a proper manner, so he agreed. The laws of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were formulated by Changqin and the deceased Wuqiu Shou.
As for the current etiquette of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, it is also known by Changqin and the national teacher Yingying. He even formulated the official robes of the ghost officials of the Nine Shadows Kingdom for Xiao Shizhu.
The rank of official, the robe to wear in office or court, and when attending important meetings or state banquets, are all extremely detailed.
Therefore, the Nine Shadows Country has rules and discipline, and it is by no means a straggler.
And Lu Wu also considered that he couldn't despise the Qingqiu Fox Country, and he couldn't send meat and bones to send an envoy, so he sent Changqin out. By the way, let him take a Xiancha and gallop to the aid of the Nine Shadows Army in Dongying Continent.
Changqin Gui is the Chunguan Zongbo of the Nine Shadows Country, one of the six ghost officials, this weight is big enough, and it is no longer contemptuous of the Qingqiu Fox Country.
And Changqin is also very backbone, not a meat and bones, and he is also loyal to Xiao Shizhu, so he will naturally not be oppressed by the Qingqiu Fox King when he is sent, or rebel.
This is the best option.
At this time, Changqin was sitting in the Xiancha cabin, wiping his scepter with a silk cloth over and over again. The scepter of the Nine Ghost Kingdoms is very different from the scepters of other ghost kingdoms. The body of the cane is a straight nine-section jade bamboo, green and round, smooth and unrelenting. The five-foot-long cane is carved with the symbol of the Nine Shadows Kingdom-the Flower of the Other Side.
The tasseled ball made of nine unicorn neck hairs is decorated with the top of the pestle sword Jin Man with a gold copper body, which is said to be made in the shape of Xiao Shizhu, so not only the facial features are similar, but even the sword with the Jin Man pestle is exactly the same as the Moon Destroying Sword.
This style and size length are also designed by Changqin himself. But holding this thing, on behalf of Xiao Shizhu's mission to other countries, Changqin is the first time.
He was rubbing his scepter in high spirits when a ghost knocked on the door.
The ghost official who came was holding a large red hard-shell document in his hand, and after entering the cabin, he walked to Changqin and stood still.
Before the ghost official could speak and explain his intentions, Changqin had already glanced at the two big characters gilded on the cover of the document - invitation.
So, he opened his mouth first and asked, "Invitation?
The official put the invitation on the table next to Changqin's hand and said, "Your Excellency, you guessed wrong, this is not an invitation for you to give gift money. It is an invitation for the lord to invite the Qingqiu Fox King to the capital of our country. The air cavalry just sent it. ”。
