Chapter 308: The white-clothed sword immortal asks for an explanation
Changzhou, the capital of the Jin Dynasty, is the largest city in the northwest.
When the king of Jin, who was addicted to pleasure, "heard" the sound of horses' hooves hundreds of miles away, and rushed into Tongtian Pass in a panic with his family, his cronies, and his subordinates, the sloppy people's hearts could not support the solid city defense of Changzhou, and it was no surprise that he fell under the iron hooves of the people of Beiyuan.
After the Beiyuan people left, it was quickly occupied by the rebels.
The palace of the king of Jin was also requisitioned by the rebels as a matter of course.
Although it is far away in the northwest, this palace is not inferior to the palace of Wu and Yue, which are famous for their wealth.
The scenery of the long bridge lying on the waves, the clouds and the dragons, and the scenery of He Hong, made Yang Qingdu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
In his impression, Yang Xi, the owner of this palace, is still a timid little slug, and in those childhood memories that have been blurred, he only dares to follow Yang Hao and himself from afar, and cast envious eyes on the two brothers together with many brothers who are also from the side branches of the house.
Now this response has not lived up to the reputation of a cowardly person who is timid and afraid.
Yang Qing sat in the courtyard outside a hall, stunned.
The footsteps were soft, he turned his head suddenly, looked at Zou He who was walking slowly, and quickly got up and said eagerly: "How is it?"
Zou He's face was haggard, and he shook his head slightly.
The autumn wind swayed, blowing down the only remaining fallen leaves on the branches and falling in front of Yang Qing.
Yang Qing sat down dejectedly, hiding his face with his hands, hating why he didn't run faster, hating why he was so careless.
"Miss Lu and Suihe have been with them, and they have been sleepless for two days and two nights, I persuaded them to rest, and the two girls were very stubborn. ”
Zou He stretched out a pair of jade hands and gently put them on Yang Qing's shoulders, "Don't worry too much, I secretly deduced once, it is a sign of danger, and Yunluo should not worry about his life." ”
Yang Qing slowly raised his head, "I'll leave it to you here, I'll go out." ”
"Don't go. Zou He immediately shook his head.
"I have to go. Yang Qing's answer was even more resolute.
"You go, what if a strong enemy comes to attack?" After direct persuasion, Zou He changed another reason.
"Don't underestimate Fu Lin, if he is here with five hundred people, he will not be able to please a Merge Dao Realm. Yang Qing glanced at Zou He, "What's more, there is also Master Bitter Lotus." ”
"Then you have to wait for Xiaoluo to wake up!" Zou He could only use the last trick.
Yang Qing shook his head, "You still don't know him, he will only hold back his own grievances." ”
"I'm gone and will be back soon. ”
After speaking, Yang Qing's figure rose to the sky and disappeared.
Zou He sat dejectedly where he had just sat and slammed his fist on the stone table in front of him.
To this day, she still doesn't understand why things are the way they are.
She looked up at the trees above her head, only a few scattered leaves were still stubbornly resisting the penetration of autumn and holding on in the wind.
"Heh, fool!"
She smiled bitterly, lay down on the table, and slowly fell asleep.
Fu Lin is presiding over the deployment of defense.
Now, whether it is the old department of the Ling family or the former backbone of the rebel army, under the quiet pacification of Yunluo on both sides, they no longer deliberately guard the difference between their origins, and slowly become a piece.
This bastard actually feels that they are in love with each other, isn't it, both sides are actually from the rebel army, but one is just more than 20 years earlier.
Now they are in charge of sifting through the mountains of loot of the Xianbei Iron Horse, waiting for the final decision of the general.
This general is naturally Yunluo.
It's a pity that he hasn't woken up yet.
But except for Fu Lin and Mr. Wu in the army, no one knows.
Fu Lin stood in the city tower and glanced at the Jin Palace, forcibly suppressed the worries in his heart, and continued to work.
Suddenly, a rainbow light fell on the city, and under Yang Qing's deliberate control, it was silent.
"I'm going to go out, and I'll leave this military matter to you. ”
With his former colleagues and old friends for many years, Yang Qing was very direct.
Fu Lin nodded, "This is natural, go early and return early." ”
He didn't ask where to go, Yang Qing had his own reasons.
Besides, he could roughly guess.
----------------------
Two more days passed.
When he saw the mountain blocking the south side of Immortal City, a burst of cheers involuntarily sounded in the long procession.
No matter how tall and beautiful the buildings at the big end are, they can't compete with the curtain of their tent rippling with the grass in the breeze;
No matter how fragrant and exquisite the meal is, it can't compare to the oily shine of a piece of mutton with a golden roast that is gently slid open by a dagger;
No matter how mellow and tempting the wine is, cough, it is indeed better than the mare's milk wine that has faded out of the bird.
Either way, it's time to go home.
In the center of the line, Wu Ti glanced lightly at the figure beside him.
Since he led his troops to break through and told him about the current situation, the high-spirited prince suddenly turned into a listless walking corpse.
Wu Ti snorted coldly in his heart, as long as he didn't have anything else to think about.
The large team had already been sent back to the Xianbei Iron Cavalry's station, and Wu Ti only took three thousand people and one great prince and walked towards the Immortal City.
At the same time, another team much smaller than Wu Ti's side came from Youyun Prefecture and approached Immortal City from the east gate.
Mei Ziqing, Guan Youyou, Jian Qi, Fu Tianqi, Chi Xuance, as well as Yelu Jincai and the remaining cowardly Xue Wei who stayed in Youyun Prefecture.
After Murong took over the management of Youyun Prefecture, Guan Youyou and Jian Qi naturally retired successfully, and they didn't have to worry about those things in Crescent City anymore.
Chi Xuance's situation is the same, before Pei Zhen went to Immortal City, he had entrusted Chi Xuance with full authority to deal with the overall situation of Youyun Prefecture, and now after the situation is completely stabilized, he naturally needs to go to Immortal City.
Under the stimulation of Mei Ziqing, Fu Tianqi's cultivation talent seemed to be completely stimulated, and he went to a small realm, so he was naturally unwilling to let go of Mei Ziqing, such a good sparring partner, so he dragged Mei Ziqing, who wanted to leave, to Immortal City together.
Like the Xianbei Iron Rider outside the South Gate, everyone in this team is happy and relaxed.
Pei Zhen became the Emperor of Yuan, is there a better ending than this?
As soon as the group saw the east gate of Immortal City, a team of palace eunuchs who had been waiting here early had already greeted them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is inconvenient for Your Majesty to go out of the city to greet you, and you have been waiting in the palace for a long time, please enter the palace with the little ones. ”
In the Hall of Eternal Life, there are no other courtiers today.
Pei Zhen and Cui Pheasant were wearing the emperor's regular clothes, standing side by side, smiling at the people who walked quickly.
Fu Tianqi had the closest relationship with Pei Zhen, rushed the fastest, smashed a fist on Pei Zhen's chest, and said with a smile: "Town, amazing!"
is no better than Fu Tianqi, who is as pure as his first brother in terms of human feelings, when that punch fell, almost everyone except him watched Pei Zhen's reaction intently.
Several eunuchs in the palace were even more frightened.
Pei Zhen smiled heartily, stretched out his arms, hugged Fu Tianqi tightly, and patted him on the back vigorously, "Have you fought with Brother Mei now?"
Everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Fu Tianqi's face suddenly frowned, "Brother Mei, that's simply a monster, except for Brother Yun, who is the most monster in him, he can't beat it." ”
Everyone laughed, but Chi Xuance keenly saw a trace of unnaturalness on Cui Pheasant's face on the side.
He was surprised in his heart, and when he thought about it, maybe he was wrong, and they were also brothers and sisters.
Everyone greeted Pei Zhen and Cui Pheasant one by one, they were all acquaintances, so they naturally had a lot less restraint and talked happily together.
Then Pei Zhen recruited Yelu Jincai and a few cowardly Xue Wei representatives, and encouraged them to take people back to the camp to rest, and tomorrow he would go to the labor army in person.
After chatting for a while, Cui Pheasant whispered a reminder in Pei Zhen's ear, and Pei Zhen stood up, "Everyone, tonight Pheasant and I will have a banquet in the diving mansion, and we will not get drunk or return when the time comes!"
After everyone cheered, Pei Zhen said again: "I still have some things to deal with now, Wu Ti is back, I have to go and see it, Pheasant will lead you to the dive first to freshen up and rest, we will see you in the evening!"
Hearing that Pei Zhen did not keep saying that he was lonely, but was still so kind and hearty, everyone was naturally happy to go back.
Before leaving, Pei Zhen stopped Chi Xuance, "Xuance, why don't you work hard and go with me?"
Wu Ti is a big man in the Beiyuan military, and Pei Zhen called Chi Xuance together, and his intention was very obvious.
Chi Xuance smiled and readily agreed.
Talents can be met, and monarchs and ministers get along, this is the beauty that everyone wants to see.
The crowd parted ways in laughter.
In the imperial study, Wu Ti has been waiting for a long time.
Pei Zhen and Chi Xuance walked in front and back, and introduced to Wu Ti with a smile, "Chi Xuance, I just arrived in Immortal City, and I brought a familiar face." ”
He didn't say much about Chi Xuance's situation, because for Wu Ti, this was information that he should have known a long time ago.
It is true that when Wu Ti heard this name, he immediately remembered all kinds of things about Chi Xuance in his heart, and got up and made a salute that was not slack, but not flattering.
Chi Xuance naturally returned the salute immediately, and he also admired this Xianbei co-master of the Mighty Grassland, as well as the loyal and righteous courage who guarded the Yinyang Pass alone.
The two smiled and exchanged pleasantries, and sure enough, Wu Ti knew Chi Xuance's identity.
With Pei Zhen's order to give a seat, the three of them naturally sat down separately, Pei Zhen was in the center, Wu Ti was on the left side, and Chi Xuance was on the right.
Wu Ti took the initiative to get up, stood still in front of Pei Zhen, stroked his chest and bent over, "Your Majesty, Wu Ti has a heavy trust. ”
Pei Zhen smiled and waved his hand, and between his demeanor, he already had a calm posture, "Didn't I hear that you brought back the main force, the casualties on the battlefield are normal, do you need to make a will to appease me personally?"
"The minister was frightened, and failed to bring back all the proceeds of the captivity, which was already a failure of the king's grace, and how could he dare to work His Majesty again. ”
"That's what you're talking about. Pei Zhen stood up and shook his hand nonchalantly, "It's gratifying to be able to get it back, but it's a windfall, and if you can't get it back, you can't get it back." ”
After speaking, his expression moved, "Did you go to the northwest and see my Yunluo brother?"
Wu Ti's expression froze, and Pei Zhen raised his eyebrows, "Something?"
Wu Ti immediately knelt down on one knee and supported his knee with one hand, "Your Majesty, when we retreated, we encountered the resistance of the rebels, and the two sides fought, so we didn't bring back the looted gains. ”
Pei Zhen was still smiling, but the laughter had become a little cold in the ears of Wu Ti and Chi Xuance, who was silently watching on the side, "Is Yunluo in the rebel army?"
Wu Ti lowered his head, "Yes." ”
"Your Highness, the wood is already in the boat, don't be impatient, otherwise you will make more mistakes!"
Chi Xuance's lips moved slightly, concentrating his sound into a line, and in order to achieve the effect, he even did not hesitate to use a little caution.
Seeing that Pei Zhen's anger that was about to erupt was slightly subdued, Chi Xuance hurriedly added, "Think about what Lord Wu Ti did before, Your Majesty has just ascended to the throne, don't chill people's hearts, let's deal with this matter slowly later." ”
Wu Ti lowered his head, waiting for the storm that was about to arrive, and he could already smell the moist breath of the approaching storm from His Majesty's cold voice.
However, the expected storm was delayed, and what was waiting for him was a pair of powerful hands that gently lifted him up.
"Since that day you followed the emperor's southern expedition, there has never been a moment of rest, during which there is a bloody battle at Yanyang Pass, which is worthy of the grassland to praise the feat of loyalty and righteousness that has been passed down for generations. ”
Pei Zhen looked at Wu Ti's eyes with a sincere expression, "It's just that I and Yunluo, intersect with life and death, and when I first ascended the throne, I had this situation of meeting with my sword soldiers, so how can I feel at ease and how can I accept it!"
Wu Ti looked at the true feelings of the young Yuan Emperor in front of him, and wanted to say something, but he finally held back.
Because he is just a courtier, even if he is stronger, he is only a courtier.
Since this is the case, he cannot exceed his duty, and the emperor does not need the sympathy of his courtiers, let alone the comfort of his courtiers.
Maybe it needs at some point, but at the end of the day it doesn't.
So, with self-reproach, guilt and sadness in his eyes, he immediately knelt down again and pleaded guilty.
"Well, go down and rest. The will of reward and bereavement will soon come down. Pei Zhen waved his hand, "In addition, I know about Xue Jun, you bet on you first, and I will see him tomorrow." ”
Wu lifted up and gave Chi Xuance a grateful look.
Although he didn't know what was happening at that time, it must have happened, otherwise His Majesty would not have suddenly stopped his anger, looking around the field, the one who could do this should be this Mr. Chi.
After Wu Ti left, Pei Zhen rubbed his head in annoyance, "Mr. Chi, what do you say I have to see Tianqi, Miss Guan, Jian Qi, and Brother Mei?"
Chi Xuance frowned, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this matter is not so simple. ”
Then he immediately regretted it, but unfortunately the words were spoken.
