Chapter 282: The Big Picture Has Been Decided
Along the way, you can see that the hanging decorations of various festivals have not been destroyed, and there are no traces of killing along the way.
Bor and Zhen Wenhe glanced at each other and completely relieved.
A group of five people entered the palace smoothly.
At the foot of the Hall of Eternal Life, Yu Nan and the big mink temple in the palace stopped and let the three of them enter the hall by themselves.
The long staircase in front of the Hall of Eternal Life was like a green avenue, which rose from a low place and led to the pinnacle of power in the Northern Abyss.
Xue Rui has walked this road many times, but none of them are as easy and exciting as today.
The awe and apprehension have all disappeared with the death of their father, Emperor Xue Lu, and now it is their time.
For Borhu and Zhen Wenhe, it is a novel experience.
Power is inherently awe-inspiring, looking at the long steps in front of him, Bor Hu and Zhen Wenhe held their breath and slowly ascended.
The three of them walked into the main hall side by side, and when they looked up, they were all stunned on the spot.
The cowardly Xue Wei on the left and right separated them from the ministers, and the cowardly Xue Wei at the door also quickly blocked the retreat.
Zhen Wenhe, the only cultivator among the three, changed his expression drastically, his old face showed a wave of anger, and he stomped his feet and swept towards the throne in the center of the main hall.
The anger of a Heavenly Realm cultivator has nothing to do with power or status, as long as you are an ordinary person, you must not be able to bear it.
But Xue Yong didn't even tremble his eyelids, and sat in his position, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
An inexplicable wind blew from the screen behind the throne, and when the wind stopped, Zhen Wenhe had already broken his dantian and was lying on the ground with all his meridians broken, with deep doubts on his face in addition to pain.
When Xue Rui saw this scene, he suddenly remembered the rumor that he had once been in the royal family.
It is said that in the deep palace, there has always been a master, he sees the head but not the tail, he doesn't know the name and doesn't know what he looks like, but he always makes a move when the royal inheritance of the Xue family is mortally threatened, could it be the person who makes a move at this moment?
Xue Yong's next move confirmed his thoughts.
I saw Xue Yong, who was dressed in an imperial robe, stood up, faced backwards, bowed deeply, and the voice of an urn hummed softly.
Xue Rui's knees instantly softened, "Xue Rui knocked on Your Majesty." ”
A ruthless person is not only cruel to others, but also to himself.
Xue Yong smiled and said, "Don't worry, since Xue Ming can tolerate you, I, as an elder, have no reason not to tolerate you." ”
"Your Majesty!" Xue Ming hurriedly knelt on the ground, as if he had been pardoned.
Xue Yong waved his hand, "Don't rush Xie Zhen, if you want to stand on this boat, you have to make a break with another boat, right?"
Xue Rui immediately stood up, pulled out a scimitar from the waist of a cowardly Xue Wei beside him, turned around and stabbed into the abdomen of Bolku, who was still confused.
The tiger general of Libing Mountain covered his stomach and slowly fell down in a daze, and when he was dying, his lips were still slowly opening and closing, as if asking where his Royal Highness had gone.
The ministers gasped, and the ruthlessness of the three princes really lived up to their reputation.
Xue Yong's face showed appreciation, "Since all of them have been solved, let's do it together." ”
Xue Rui did not hesitate, and walked towards Zhen Wenhe with the knife.
As Xue Ming's number one strategist, Zhen Wenhe's brain is much better than that of Boerhu, when he saw that it was Xue Yong sitting on the throne, he knew that most of his Royal Highness had been poisoned, and that Yu Nan must be the key person among them.
He propped himself up with difficulty, looked at Xue Rui who was walking step by step, and said in a deep voice: "Third prince ......"
Hearing these three words, Xue Rui immediately rushed forward and cut off Zhen Wenhe's head with a knife, so that those possible words of punishment could not be spoken.
The blood stains on the scimitar slowly dripped to the ground, and the blood flowing from Zhen Wenhe's neck gathered together and flowed into the hearts of the ministers and clans in the hall.
Xue Rui used his ruthlessness to dye everyone's hearts with a red shadow.
Xue Yong stood up, "Go back to the house and wait, the will of the reward will come down soon, as long as you do what you have to do, I can give you what you want." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Xue Rui got up and was about to retreat, when suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he knelt on the ground again, "Please send someone to take over the soldiers and horses outside the city." ”
"Hehe, since you're in such a hurry, it's up to you. ”
Xue Yong opened his mouth with a smile and sent a henchman of the Yongwang Mansion to go with Xue Rui.
Really!
Xue Rui, who was in a cold sweat, hurriedly said that he wrote a handwritten letter, took out the token and handed it to others, and he would not leave the city in order to avoid suspicion.
Who knew that Xue Yong waved his hand indifferently and asked him to go with him.
When Xue Rui and the henchman walked out of the north gate and came to the garrison of the Bedjia Shahai, the vest was cold again.
I saw that there were nearly 40,000 troops firmly surrounded by the 20,000 soldiers and horses they brought, even if they still had two hearts, it was impossible to take advantage of the opportunity to escape.
Recalling the terrifying moment in the Fang Cai Palace, Xue Rui's throat rolled, and he swallowed his saliva with difficulty, full of happiness for the rest of his life after the catastrophe.
When he handed over the family wealth he had accumulated with great difficulty, his heart was actually relaxed.
Of course, only God knows how long these emotions will last, and if they settle down for a long time in the future, whether there will be some other thoughts again.
At the same time, outside the camp of the soldiers and horses stationed in the south of the Libing Mountain, they were surrounded by another larger army, and a large group of elite horsemen in the army drove over.
The mighty Geleng took the lead, and the two guards behind him, one carrying a head, went straight into the big tent of the Chinese army and greeted Xue Lu's coffin.
When the overall situation was settled, the west gate was opened, and the old prince and Ma Qi escorted Xue Lu's coffin into the city of eternal life.
Looking at everything that had been lost for a long time in the Immortal City, Ma Qi was quite lucky.
Xue Yong led the ministers of the clan and stood solemnly outside the palace gate to greet Xue Lu's coffin.
When Ma Qi looked at the tacit understanding of Xue Yong and the old prince, he admired in addition to admiration in his heart.
Fortunately, his credit is not bad, Xue Yong is also very appreciative, and promises that there will be a reward that satisfies him.
The clan and ministers present guessed a rough idea, it turned out that King Yong, oh no, His Majesty's layout is so far-reaching, these two princes lost unjustly!
Soon, Xue Lu's coffin was welcomed into the palace, and after three days of vigil, he was escorted to the Konoha Mountain Emperor's Mausoleum for burial.
After arranging the people for the wake, the rest were finally able to return to their homes.
This day is a day worth digesting.
It's also a day worth planning.
The big pattern changes, and there are countless small patterns waiting for the dust to settle down.
In the secret room of King Yong's Mansion, the narrow ventilation window is only enough for a small oil lamp.
The oil lamp was placed on the table, and the light was dim, and the shadow of the desk was reflected on the wall very majestically.
He gently put down the brush in his hand and rubbed his sour eyes, staying in such light for a long time, even if he was a cultivator, it would not be pleasant.
By the faint light of the ventilation window, I looked at the sky, and the dust should have settled over there.
Things are finally getting better step by step.
That's good.
----------------------------
"Mother, Your Majesty has returned to the palace!"
A palace maid sent out to inquire about the news hurried to report the news.
Concubine Ming's autumn eyes instantly brightened, and an elusive smile appeared on her face, and she lazily ordered: "Burn incense, bathe." ”
The heat is rising, the back is suffocating, and the elegance is rarely matched.
When Concubine Ming, who was wearing a close-fitting silk robe and a long tulle skirt, walked out, the bright light suddenly brightened the entire palace.
She watched as all the palace maids in the house were waved away, leaving only one cronie to accompany her.
Leaning on the soft collapse, Concubine Ming lifted a slender jade leg, and the silk robe suddenly slid down the soft skin, revealing a dazzling white, "You say, am I beautiful?"
The palace maid hurriedly said: "The lady is beautiful and beautiful, and she is the best in the world." ”
"It's a pity that such a beautiful woman has become a widow and has been lonely for half her life. Concubine Ming sighed faintly, and the palace maid lowered her eyebrows and did not dare to talk.
"Do you say that the girl of the Cui family in King Jing's mansion is qualified to be the queen of Brother Ming?"
was asked directly, the palace maid naturally didn't dare to pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore, and carefully thought about the intention of her mother's question, and said: "It depends on whether Your Majesty looks down on her." ”
"Yo, you can really talk!" Concubine Ming slowly lowered her long legs and looked at her, "I'll let Your Majesty take you in and give you a concubine as well." ”
The palace maid knelt on the ground and said excitedly: "Thank you for your great kindness!"
Concubine Ming leaned back proudly, the night was blurry, the lights were brilliant, and the beauty was stunning.
"Your Majesty has arrived!" a sharp shout suddenly sounded outside the palace.
Concubine Ming knelt on the soft carpet and said softly, "Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"Get what you want!" she said this meaningful sentence as she looked up with a smile, only to see a meaningful smile on Xue Yong's face.
"Why are you !!," Concubine Ming exclaimed and retreated.
Xue Yong said with a smile: "Dressed so coquettishly, he is actually waiting for his son, which is interesting and interesting." ”
"What about my brother Ming, what have you done to him!" Concubine Ming retreated halfway, and suddenly came to her senses again, and pounced on Xue Yong again.
Xue Yong grabbed her outstretched white wrist and leaned over, "Either die with him, or glory and wealth with me, choose one?"
Concubine Ming sat on the ground, full of spring.
In the night, I don't know how long it took, but Xue Yong, who was satisfied, sorted out his clothes and walked out.
He stopped in front of the palace gate and said with a smile: "I forgot to say, I still use the palace maid who sent the message today, don't hurt her, otherwise I will be very angry." ”
On the second day, the news of the new emperor Xue Yongqiang's concubine spread all over the city for some reason.
There are even some rumors that are even more bizarre, saying that Xue Yong was in front of the coffin of the former emperor Xue Lu, and when he saw it, he actually did that ugly thing on the spot.
Such a rumor can obviously arouse the interest of the small people in the market, and it has gradually become the mainstream version.
For the big guys, the wind and the moon are all trivial, and they care more about other news.
Surrounded by the two heads of Borhu and Zhen Wenhe and the surrounding nearly 100,000 troops, the soldiers and horses of Libing Mountain all surrendered and were incorporated together with the soldiers and horses of the sand sea.
The three great nobles who had made a deal with the dead second prince retreated silently after learning of the changes in Immortal City.
Judging by the scattered baggage and messy ruts, the retreat was hasty.
From this point of view, the overall situation of this Immortal City has been decided!
Many people are thinking like this, covered in bruises, and the little Yuan Lord who is lying on the bed is also thinking like this.
The second prince's family collapsed, and in the absence of Xue Yong's order, there was naturally no reason to continue to imprison and torture him.
The city defense army withdrew, and the Yuan Mansion returned to calm.
The chief housekeeper looked at his master with satisfaction, and after a whole night of torture, this pampered noble son finally gritted his teeth.
Presumably after this time, this fierce medicine ordered by the old lady should have a good effect on the old man.
Lying on the bed, Yuan Mei, who was wrapped like a zongzi, didn't think so much, but muttered, since the overall situation has been decided, why hasn't my father come back?
Again, there are a lot of people who haven't come back yet.
After learning that Xue Yong had ascended the throne, Concubine De breathed a sigh of relief, but soon heard what happened to Concubine Ming again, and she began to feel uneasy again.
At this moment, she looked at the sky outside the palace gate, where did her son go?
The same question also swirled in the mind of the uncle of the eldest prince Xue Jun, but he thought a little deeper than his own sister.
Up to now, it seems that Xue Yong, who has military power and righteousness, has an unshakable status, but the key is that Xue Yong has no heirs and is not young, so Xue Jun's eyes can be a little longer-term.
The gesture of his coming back is very important, and he must not mess up and lose his plan.
But what's worse is that he can't contact Xue Jun now.
In King Jing's mansion, Cui Pheasant, Yang Qing, and Zou He were also waiting for news about Pei Zhen.
It seems that everyone has forgotten that there is also a Xianbei Iron Cavalry co-owner who risked his life to defend the country, and he is still fighting in the bloody battle of Yanyang Pass.
