Chapter 23 Zhengyang ascended to the dynasty to announce a hundred officials, and Youzong announced the decree to chase the door

Not to mention the plans of the three of them, Ning Yu walked out of the hall and was guided to the wing room in the backyard. As a secret agent of the headquarters, unlike the others of the Dirt Hand, he has no identity on the surface, so he has nowhere to go at the moment.

He needed to wait here for Di Hong, and wait for Di Hong to arrange his next errand.

In addition, the replacement of the secret agent's license plate will also have to wait for the ground to be processed.

I've heard the dirt hand say before, the gold medal agent is already the upper level of the five elements secret department, and even the dirt hand is only a silver medal agent. From this, it can be seen that the reward this time is very generous. Don't forget, Ning Yu has just joined the Five Elements Secret Department, and this time it can be regarded as an exceptional promotion.

Gold Medal Spy has very large authority, in the southwest can mobilize up to 500 soldiers and horses nearby, can transfer assassins or other secret agents across departments, and can even order local officials below the fifth grade, if released, the gold medal agent can be the head of a county's secret agents, control a county's spy system, and have great power.

Of course, Ning Yu hoped to be able to release himself, so that he could temporarily break away from the direct control of the Feng family, and wait for the opportunity to find the cultivation resources he needed and establish his own secret power.

Thinking about today's events, Ning Yu admired the wisdom and courage of the Feng family very much. They must have thought of the weakness of the cultivation realm, so they made such a decisive decision to declare war. However, Ning Yu deduced that due to limited information, the Feng family was not completely sure that the cultivation realm would really not start a war with the world. Judging from what I know these days, Feng Yang is full of the keen sense of smell and adventurous spirit unique to speculators, and this flag declaration of war is a venture capital for him. This person is clever, far-reaching, and unwilling to be controlled by others, which can be called a generation of heroes.

After today, the cultivation realm will be known to the world, and it will be exposed to the world with a sinful face. The Feng family is the biggest winner of the direct benefit, and by initiating this matter, the Feng family will gain great benefits and reputation.

From then on, the secular world will inevitably take a series of measures to target the "enslavement and cruelty" of the so-called "Daomen", and this will bring great trouble to the cultivation world.

In the past, cultivators were able to haunt the world without being noticed, in addition to their own clever means, it was also very important that mortals did not pay too much attention to them without knowing the existence of cultivators. From now on, the situation will be very different, and if there are hundreds of millions of mortals, and in full view of everyone, the cultivators will definitely be noticed by the world.

After a while, the cultivator will find out how much influence he once despised and disdained mortals would have on him. Gone are the days when they used to be in and out of the world as if they were visiting their own back garden.

The restriction of cultivators' entry into the world will inevitably cause a series of chain reactions. The first is the shortage of cultivation resources. There are many resources that cultivators need in the secular world, and when it becomes difficult to obtain resources from the secular world, the struggle between sects over resources will intensify. Next, the cultivation realm will inevitably be chaotic, and when the cultivation realm is in trouble, they can only seek a new way out, that is, to seek communication with the worldly people they disdained in the past.

Ning Yu expected that this would be the path that the cultivation realm would eventually take. Contemporary cultivators are a group of hopeless cultivators, the gate of heaven is broken, there is no way to ascend to immortals, the ultimate goal pursued by cultivators has been unattainable, and the fundamental problem in front of us now is how to continue and survive.

The era of the future must be the era of cooperation between cultivators and mortals, and before that, Ning Yu had already begun to lay out, he personally planned this change, and seized the opportunity step by step, he not only knew all the actions of the world, but also was extremely familiar with the cultivation world, as long as he operated properly, he would undoubtedly become the biggest winner in the world.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, the three trumpets of the nine drums of the Feng family, and the matter of raising the flag to declare war, under the deliberate rendering of the five elements of the Feng family, spread at an astonishing speed in the Great Wei and even the entire continent.

Daomen, the word that appeared in everyone's eyes for the first time, became a demon-like existence for a while.

Heaven and earth, vast supernatural powers, enslaving mortals, killing people, its magic and cruel methods, in all corners of the continent are quietly discussed.

People both yearn for the supernatural powers of the people in the Daomen, but also fear their attitude towards mortals.

But no matter how people look at the Daomen, what the Southwest Feng family did was well received by the people of the world, for a time, the streets and alleys, the lower Riba people, the mouth of the praise is the benevolence and righteousness of the Feng family, the virtue of the tiger marquis, the southwest Feng family has become the embodiment of the righteousness of the world, the people's aspirations, no two for a while!

On the official road leading directly to the south gate of the Great Wei Imperial City (Tianfu City), a fast horse galloped over, and a hawk-patterned yellow coat showed the identity of the knight on the horse~~ Royal spy, Great Wei Eagle Detective.

In the distance, I heard the hoarse voice of the knight on the horse, shouting loudly: "Southwest emergency, the people on the road quickly give way!"

When the soldiers defending the city saw it, they hurriedly informed the general manager that the general did not dare to slack off, and with an order, the soldiers defending the city went out one after another to drive the pedestrians on the avenue to both sides.

A burst of smoke and dust flew up, and the eagle scout had already driven into the imperial city, along the road, the knights shouted endlessly, and the pedestrians dodged one after another, and the chickens and dogs jumped along the way, and one man and one horse went straight to the palace.

Half an hour later, the four gates of the palace were opened, and hundreds of palace people poured out on horseback and scattered in all directions.

After a short time, the people saw that the street was densely packed, and an official sedan chair was lifted out of various alleys or official yamen, and the sedan chair man trotted all the way to the palace.

The people were amazed, not knowing what was going on, and began to talk about it.

Some people said that the Tiande army had already invaded the border of the Great Wei Dynasty, and the border passes were in an emergency; some people said that the Feng family raised their banner to rebel and swept across the southwest, and the soldiers came straight to the imperial city; for a time, the wind was surging in Tianfu City, and the people were panicking.

Not to mention the people of the imperial city, the ministers and officials were also worried at this moment, and they didn't know why the emperor suddenly sent someone to send a decree to the court urgently. This is a situation that has not been encountered in more than ten years, but I don't know what kind of big thing happened. Many ministers who are usually well-informed are frequently questioned by their colleagues, but they do not know what is going on.

Along the way, the ministers speculated about what was going on, and urged the palanquin bearers to speed up their pace and hurried to the palace.

When they arrived at Yuhua Gate, the hundred officials got off the sedan chair and arranged them in order according to their ranks, waiting to enter the palace.

At this time, an official sedan chair came leisurely not far away, and all the officials avoided it when they saw it.

The sedan chair stopped, the sedan curtain was lifted, and a person came out. This person looks to be in his forties, dressed in a purple robe, with a white face, handsome, and a beautiful demeanor, and his words and deeds are full of literary elegance.

With a smile on his face, he walked all the way.

All the officials bowed their hands one after another: "Welcome to Marquis Sima." ”

This person is one of the seven marquis of the Great Wei Dynasty, the meritorious marquis Sima Chenji, who is also the secretary of the household department, and the only civil official among the seven marquises.

Sima Chenji, born in the Sima family of Taixing County, Dongyuan Province, is the only son of the old marquis Sima Jing, rarely talented, good at poetry and songs, ten years old has the name of a prodigy, adulthood, has traveled the world, made "mountains and rivers Fu", the name of the world, after the death of the old Marquis of Sima, he inherited the title of Marquis of Merit, during the reign, outstanding political achievements, trusted by the Son of Heaven.

Sima Chen is free and easy-going, easy-going, has a wide range of friends, and is a famous gentleman above the Great Wei court. Because he had to supervise the household department, Sima Chenji now settled in Tianfu City, and the emperor gave him a meritorious mansion for him to live in.

As soon as Sima Chenji stood still, several ministers around him surrounded him.

The leader of the person, about seventy years old, has white hair, a serious face, and is not angry and arrogant, it is Xu Chongshan, the prime minister of the Great Wei Dynasty, who commanded the six departments. The rest of the people are Kang Kai, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Zhou Bainian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Su Muyu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Ding You, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhuge Qing, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, these 6 people plus Sima Chenji are the seven giants who control the Great Wei court, except for the emperor and several princes, no one can be nobler than them.

Although Xu Chongshan is a prime minister and is higher than Sima Chenji in the official position of the imperial court, he still has to salute Sima Chenji like the other five Shangshu.

After the six people saluted, Xu Chongshan asked: "Master Hou, do you know why the emperor suddenly announced that hundreds of officials entered the court today?"

Sima Chenji shook his head and said, "Ben Hou doesn't know that when the imperial envoy delivered the decree, Ben Hou was about to go to the banquet. hurriedly went home to change into court clothes, and it was too late. ”

Su Muyu, the secretary of the ministry, said: "I heard that not long ago, an eagle probed into the city and shouted an urgent report from the southwest. Master Kang, as the secretary of the military department, do you have any news?"

Kang Kai shook his head and said, "I haven't received any report from Tiande. If there is really a military situation, we will notify the military department first, instead of summoning the ministers. Is there something going on on the Feng family's side?"

A few people speculated here, and the ministers behind him looked around.

Seeing this, Sima Chenji stopped a few people and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, what is going on, we will know when we enter the court, or don't speculate here for no reason, in front of the hundred officials, as the head of the department, it is inevitable that it will be unseemly to do so." ”

"What Hou Ye said is true. Ding You, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, agreed: "As the head of the six departments, we should abide by etiquette, set an example, and set an example for the officials." ”

A few people nodded, stopped talking about the matter, and stood intently and waited quietly.

After a while, the middle door of the Yuhua Gate was opened, and the two palace people walked out and shouted: "Hundreds of officials listen to the order and go to the palace to discuss matters." ”

Headed by Sima Chenji and Xu Chongshan, hundreds of officials entered in turn, and slowly walked up to the Qinzheng Hall along the imperial road.

In the palace of diligence, the painting beams are carved and the building is magnificent, enter it, the hundred officials stand in turn, high on the dragon chair, the placket sits on the placket, this person is dressed in a golden dragon robe, wears a crown, steps on cloud boots, has a handsome face, tall eyebrows, heroic and extraordinary, it is Xiao Jingxiu, the son of heaven of today's Great Wei Dynasty, and the year name is Zhengyang.

Hundreds of officials knelt three times and knocked nine times, the mountain shouted long live, and in the palace of diligence, the sound was like a bell, and the echo was endless.

"Zhongqing is flat. Zhengyang stretched out his hand, and Baiguan Xie got up.

"All of you, Aiqing, I suddenly issued an order to urgently recruit Zhongqing to ascend to the dynasty because of a major event in the southwest. Zhengyang said: "Fang Cai Eagle Detective Urgent Report, Weihu Hou Feng Yang Seven days ago in the Nine Drums No. 3 outside Xingfeng City, raised the flag and blood oath, and declared war on the outside world. ”

"What?"

"Feng Yang dared to declare war on Tiande without asking for an order, what is he going to do?"

"This is contempt for imperial power, audacious, and it will be strictly investigated at the moment!"

"Although he has the right to take care of the military and politics himself, he can't declare war with Tiande on behalf of Great Wei!

As soon as Zhengyang's voice fell, there was immediately a noise in the Qinzheng Palace, and the officials were taken aback, and they all shouted and scolded.

The ministers were silent. A smile flashed on Zhengyang's face, and then disappeared, and he said loudly: "Don't misunderstand, Feng Aiqing is not declaring war on Tiande, but on Daomen!"

Baiguan's voice paused, and the Qinzheng Hall immediately fell silent. After a while, someone asked aloud: "Dare to ask the emperor, what kind of power is this gate?

The ministers chimed in.

Zhengyang stretched out his hand to signal the hundred officials to be calm and calm, and said, "Zhong Aiqing, listen to what is written in the secret report. I still don't really understand. Xiao Guizi, you read it and let Zhong Aiqing listen to it. ”

"Yes. A little duke standing on the side took out the superstition in his sleeve, unfolded it, took a few steps forward, and read it aloud: "Thirteen days ago, the Feng family's secret agents cracked the case of the disappearance of the silver mine a hundred years ago in Cailing Mountain, and rescued more than 600 people from the Great Wei. It is reported that the disappearance case was committed by the demons of the Daomen, the demons of the Daomen, lurking in the dark world, for the disaster of the world, has not known for hundreds of years, and its people are proficient in witchcraft, manipulating the five elements, and have supernatural powers, similar to demons. After investigation, for a hundred years, the demons of the Taoist sect have harmed living beings, enslaved the people, and acted with the common anger of people and gods. Five days ago, the mighty tiger waited for the wind to raise the list of his crimes outside the Xingfeng City, nine drums and three trumpets, raised the flag to declare war, blood oath to fight, the eagle detective heard about it, and reported to the Beijing division to reach the saint. ”

Xiao Guizi stood aside after reading the secret report, the hundred officials in the palace of diligence, you look at me, I look at you, and I was speechless for a while. Zhengyang sat on the dragon chair and looked at the ministers, quite playful.

In the middle of the night, Ding You, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, spoke first: "Your Majesty, what the secret report said is simply nonsense. The saint has clouds, and the son is silent, and the strange power is confused, how can there be gods, ghosts, and demons at this time? The minister asks Your Majesty to issue an order to strictly investigate the person who preaches the book and punish him for the crime of lying falsely!"

As soon as Ding You spoke up, the subordinates of the Ministry of Rites agreed. The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the world's rituals, ancestral sacrifices, diplomacy, etiquette and other affairs, and the yamen is full of respected old masters. These people read the scriptures and followed the teachings of the saints, but they were also very old-fashioned, and they always stayed away from the ghosts and gods, so they did not believe in the secret reports at all.

Before Zhengyang could speak, Zhuge Qing, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, stood up, and he arched his hand upwards and said: "The difference between what Lord Ding said has been said in the secret letter, if the Daomen demon human is a demon, it must be a metaphorical statement. There are many scholars in this world, and these people use the way of things and tricks to pretend to be gods and ghosts and fool the people. Presumably, these Daomen demons are Fangshi, but the eagle detective failed to see through it, so the report was wrong. However, it's just some alchemists, just deceiving villains, and Wei Huhou actually raised the flag to declare war, which is really a big fuss!"

Although Ding You and Zhuge Qing had a slight difference in their statements, they both did not believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, and the ministers felt justified when they heard it, and they echoed it one after another.

Only Sima Chenji frowned, revealing a thoughtful attitude.

The ministers discussed a lot, and Zhengyang finally spoke, saying: "Everyone, please be quiet, I also have a secret report here, which is reported by Shiba Inu, the leader of the Southwest Dog Pavilion, and what is said in the letter is no different from the secret report of the Eagle Detective, which is what Shiba Inu saw with his own eyes, and there is no falsehood." ”

As soon as Zhengyang's words came out, the officials changed color one after another. Eagle Detective Dog Spy is the exclusive spy organization of the Great Wei Dynasty, Eagle Detective Outside, mainly spy on the military situation of other countries, and be responsible for the transmission of military information, Dog Spy Inside, to put it bluntly, it is a secret investigation of the place, monitoring hundreds of officials, Dog spy is more mysterious than Eagle Detective, and more fearful, among which the officials are royal dead soldiers, loyal to the royal family, and all the reports are accompanied by empirical evidence, and there is no falsehood. However, the dog spy has always been secretive and secret, after all, it was sent by the emperor to monitor the ministers, and it is not easy to put it on the surface, but Zhengyang actually said bluntly in front of the hundred officials this time that there is a dog pavilion in the southwest, and the hundred officials were shocked in their hearts. Many ministers secretly glanced at a figure in the court, their eyes playful.

This person is Feng Mao, the "treasure bead horse" of the current dynasty, he is the fourth brother of "Weihu Hou" Feng Yang, and married the younger sister of today's son, "Princess Cangping" Xiao Xu.

For a while, the ministers pondered one after another, whether this meant that the emperor trusted the Feng family or did not trust it? If it was trusted, then why did he secretly build a dog pavilion to monitor the Feng family? But if he did not trust it, how could the emperor tell the story of the establishment of a dog pavilion in the southwest in front of his ministers and Feng Mao? Wouldn't this alienate the relationship between the Feng family and the imperial family? They all said that the emperor was unpredictable, and the ministers could not guess what the emperor was thinking.

However, although everyone can't guess the relationship between the Feng family and the royal family, with the secret report of the Dog Pavilion as evidence, the content of the previous spy report began to make the ministers uneasy.

The Eagle Detective is famous all over the world, and what he says now is the same, and the information in the letter must be conclusive. This is a big event that can shock the world and ruin the world's three views!

For thousands of years, the world has never known that there is such a mysterious force as Daomen in this world. Moreover, they have been secretly taking mortals into slavery. Since the incident of Cailing Mountain was done by the Daomen, were some other events that have occurred in the past thousands of years also the work of the Daomen? Just as Ning Yu guessed, everyone attributed some indecipherable disasters to the Daomen, and for a while, the image of a powerful and evil demon appeared in everyone's minds, which made people shudder.

Zhengyang silently watched the changing expressions of the hundred officials silently.

A moment later, it was Ding You who was the first to speak, and his voice was full of indignation: "The way of heaven is clear, and the righteousness is awe-inspiring! In this world, there are demons who are cholera all over the world and cruel to the people, and it is really intolerable! Weihu Hou raised his flag to declare war, and his actions are in line with the way of heaven, related to the great righteousness, in line with the will of the people, and is really an example of the right path in the world! Your Majesty is now making a decree to commend and proclaim the world, and support Weihu Hou's righteous deeds, so as to reassure the people with the righteous way!"

"The ministers seconded it!" shouted the old scholars of the Ministry of Rites. These people have old-fashioned brains and admit death, and in a blink of an eye, they have changed from the vanguard of the crusade against Feng Yang to the brave generals who praise Feng Yang.

The ministers who were suddenly startled by the existence of the Daomen, before their heads turned around, heard the shouts of the Ministry of Rites, and they were used to it, and subconsciously shouted: "The ministers seconded the proposal." ”

Among the hundred officials, only Sima Chenji, Xu Chongshan and Feng Mao are like wood carving clay sculptures, looking at the nose, nose and mouth, mouth and heart, without saying a word.

Zhengyang looked around the court, his eyes were full of deep meaning, after a long time, he nodded, and said: "This matter conforms to the righteousness of heaven, it is related to the world's Li Shu, what the Weihu Marquis does, loyal to the monarch and the country, and righteousness for the people, it is really a model for all the princes in the world, I should support it and show the world!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" the ministers shouted to the sea.

No one noticed that Zhengyang's hands on the armrests on the dragon chair were all green at the moment.
