Chapter 28(35)

Yuan Yi said: "I won't bother you much, but it's just a gesture." He took out a hand behind his back and said, "I have taken a fancy to this knife, and I can't put it down." But it was taken out of the temple of Hades. I think that although this tomb is not very formal, it is still the mausoleum of a prince of the Qing Dynasty, and although he was posthumously crowned king after his death, he was the younger brother of Emperor Taizu during his lifetime, and it is inappropriate to tamper with the funeral jewelry. But if it is rewarded by the emperor himself, the meaning is very different......"

Cao Zhenyan had never seen the slash and Shen Shiyun's wonderful pen Danqing, but he had never seen the real thing, nor had he heard the description of others, so how could he draw the same treasure knife out of thin air? Look at the scimitar with a silver light, and the extraordinary weapon that can be seen at first sight. But the things that accompany Prince Zhuang to be buried can't be placed too shabby, and it is not surprising that there are a few rare treasures.

He was moved at first sight, but only for a moment. After all, he is used to being a big official, and he doesn't treat swords as his life like a charlatan. Besides, this is a thing excavated from the Qing Tomb, and he gave it away with the things of the emperor's ancestors, and the wool came out of the sheep, and he didn't suffer any loss. The most important thing is to complete the tasks assigned by Concubine Yun, make contributions in front of the emperor, and become an official and a knight. So he nodded and said, "Okay, after the official returns to Beijing, ask the emperor for this sentence." The sword is yours. ”

Yuan Yi smiled and said: "This is not very appropriate, is it? How is this different from a tomb robber to take treasures in the underworld without permission? I will go to Beijing with you, and after you report to the emperor, I will persuade Li Mengzhu, it will not be too late." ”

Cao Zhenyan was afraid that he would have many dreams at night, and he didn't know when he would regret it along the way, so he would be relieved to take his life into his own hands. What's more, more things are better than less, and he will not be stupid enough to report this treasure to the saint again. Even if the emperor was generous at that time, he didn't look good on face.

When someone else holds an object and says to his face, "This is what you took from your ancestral grave," no one will be comfortable listening to it. At that time, he will be killed, but all his credit will be wiped out, and I am afraid that he will have to bear the charge, which is too worthwhile. Hurriedly said: "Why do you have to waste so much time and effort? If you think about it, the Lord of Long Live will hear about it, and the holy will will definitely grant it. The words of this official can represent the emperor. ”

Yuan Yi smiled and said, "Oh, is it really okay? Don't be tired of you for me, and then bear some kind of charge of bullying the king, then I don't want to go." Cao Zhenyan repeatedly promised: The prince can rest assured, and he will never do it. Yuan Yi smiled: "Then the emperor's words must be special counting? If you say it, you will never regret it?" Cao Zhenyan said: "Of course, you have no jokes!"

Lu Qian forced a smile on the side and had to stop looking over. He saw that his colleagues were deceived, but instead of warning, he gloated. Although this is a task to be received by all, it is still the most important personal merit to be rewarded at that time. Cao Zhenyan can't get the life-seeking slash, if he can manage to win it, it will be a great achievement in front of the emperor and Shen Shiyun, and the reward is indispensable, and it will definitely leave a significant impression on the two of them, and first establish their place in the palace.

He used to be the master of Qingtianzhai, and his ability is undoubted, what needs to be proved is that he has returned to the court physically and mentally, is loyal, and only serves the emperor alone. This matter can only be outwitted, and it is not appropriate to be an opponent, otherwise Nangong Xueyan will write down another account of him.

Yuan Yi smiled and said, "Okay, Li Mengzhu, now I'll come to persuade you." Lord Cao is so refreshing, we can't be left behind, not to mention that this matter is nothing to worry about. This replied to the people, so that he could go back to Beijing and resume his life. Cao Zhenyan nodded again and again.

Li Yijie couldn't help but smile bitterly, making tricks on people is not his forte, and he has always disagreed. Although he basically knew the idea of Yuan Yida, he didn't know how to cooperate with him best, so he simply said directly: "Lord Cao, in fact, this knife ...... It's the Requirping Slash we just took out of the Hades Temple. ”

Cao Zhenyan couldn't accept this sudden surprise for a while, and his mind was almost stunned, and he stammered: "This ...... Is this a requisition? So ......."

Yuan Yi smiled: "Yes, this is the Seven Evil Killing Slash that is like a fake." Actually, Lord Cao, I'm very worried about you, if we really died in the temple just now, and you led people down to search, but you couldn't recognize the real treasures, but picked up a bunch of other people's broken copper and iron weapons, wouldn't it be bad? You can go and tell the emperor that you care about his dragon body, and it is not suitable to dance with knives and guns all day long, so out of good intentions, you made your own opinion, and went to find a more suitable owner for the treasure knife, and then asked him for credit. The emperor is benevolent and open-minded, and he will definitely not blame you. ”

Cao Zhenyan finally reacted at this time, he was caught in a trap, and said angrily: "You...... What nonsense?" Yuan Yi said: "I didn't say anything, I praised Long Live Lord for being a good emperor who loves the people like a son and is benevolent and enlightened." But you scold me for talking nonsense, hey, then your thoughts are not very good. People respect the king, how can you scold the emperor in your heart, and then come to prevent others from supporting him? Lord Cao, inciting public opinion and plotting rebellion and rebellion is 'punishable'......"

Cao Zhenyan said angrily: "You kid, is this official easy to afford for you? Those words don't count, they can't be counted!"

Yuan Yi said: "I don't know the price of the pastime, how much is an hour? Hey, I don't know who told me just now, the emperor has a word, and the king has no jokes, you are on behalf of the emperor's Chrysostom to promise me. You have to be careful, if you go back, you will openly accuse the emperor of not believing in his words and going back on his word? Fabricating such rumors and plotting against each other does not seem to be a big crime. Well, it's probably a 'Zhujiu Clan'. For adults, it doesn't matter, anyway, the head falls to the ground, but it's just a big scar in the bowl. As for other people's heads, it has nothing to do with you, does it?"

Cao Zhenyan's face became more and more ugly. Lu Qian couldn't hold back any longer and laughed. Cao Zhenyan said angrily: "Lord Lu, what are you laughing at? Why don't you come up and say a few fair words to this official?"

Lu Qian smiled and said, "Well, fair, fair." Justice is at ease in people's hearts. Master Cao, it's not me talking about you, it's your fault. No matter how much you rely on your merits and think that you are a celebrity in front of the regent, you have no fear, and you shouldn't provoke the emperor's majesty so much. Giving away his treasures in private, alas, is inappropriate, inappropriate. You're in too much trouble, and I can't help it. Besides, there are so many people watching here, and one of them has leaked the news, which is a big scourge for the adult's career. Unless you kill them all, kill them and kill them! Although it will cost a little work, it is still a move to protect the car. As long as you say a word, don't ask you to do it yourself, I will solve it for you. You see, brother is righteous enough, right?"

Cao Zhenyan was so angry that he almost fainted, and shouted: "Li Yijie, this matter was explained by the mother, is it my task alone? Are you planning to swallow your life alone, or what? If you don't know the current affairs, don't blame the official for offending." Li Yijie said coldly: "It's okay, anyway, when we first got acquainted, we were enemies, and it doesn't hurt to have one more time." You are as ambitious as Jiang Yanchen, so you can see that he is a like-minded confidant. ”

Cao Zhenyan said angrily: "You don't want to toast, eat and drink! You dare to compare this official with the devil who harms the world! Give it to me!" As he spoke, he waved his hand and rushed up with the officers and soldiers behind him. He and Li Yijie fought alone, and the generals fought fiercely with the martial arts people at the entrance of the cave.

Li Yijie was just about to draw his sword, but he suddenly came out from under the threat. Yuan Yi smiled lightly: "Master Li, if you lose, you don't lose momentum, you can't lose face if you use force with others." I'll borrow you first, and remember to win for me. ”

Li Yijie perked up and said, "Yes, thank you!" Reaching out to hold the handle of the knife, he met Cao Zhenyan's attack. The hole was caving deeper and worse.

There are only two people on the field who are standing up and watching the excitement, and the two do not help each other. Lu Qian slowly paced to the side of the original wing, watching the battle with a calm face. Yuan Yi looked relaxed, and he was not concerned about their victory or defeat.

Li Yijie heard the sound of falling rocks behind him, and he didn't know how long the people below could hold on, so he just wanted to fight quickly, swinging his knife and attacking, regardless of his physical strength being quickly consumed.

He is anxious, Cao Zhenyan is more anxious than him, at this time, the only way to get the death as soon as possible will be punished, and the subordinates will not dare to break their mouths again, otherwise this will be a serious crime. In a hurry, his fists and feet lost his rules, and he was pulled by Li Yijie's fast attack, and he only had to defend when he was in battle, and he was not allowed to attack, and Li Yijie did not intend to let him have it.

Cao Zhenyan thought to himself: "When did this kid's kung fu improve like this? Could it be that he became the leader of the martial arts alliance, and really had another chance?" At this time, a long sword was suddenly nailed to his side. It is estimated that it is a scuffle on the field, and one person's weapon is out of his hand, and he happens to fly here, and it is the help of the sky. Take a half step back, press the palm of your hand to the hilt of the sword, and spin in a circle around the sword, intending to dazzle your opponent.

As soon as Li Yijie saw Cao Zhenyan's intention, he stood still, but the position indicated on the tip of the knife was still not far from his vital point, no matter where he would use that move, he could always parry it. Cao Zhenyan could see that the opportunity had been lost, so he didn't dare to delay too much, so he happened to go around in front of him, and in embarrassment, he took a risk, suddenly pulled out his long sword, and picked it out from the bottom up. This trick was enough to pierce his lower abdomen.

Li Yijie had never seen such a desperate style of play, and in a hurry, he lifted it and slashed it down. With a "bang", the long sword broke in two. Before Cao Zhenyan could react, Li Yijie had already bullied him up, grabbed his shoulder with one hand, and put a horizontal knife in his neck with the other. "Stop!"

The Qing court trained its troops very strictly, and if they disobeyed in battle, they would be dealt with with by strict military law. At this time, all the officers and soldiers did not dare to stop without the master's order. There are also a few people who quietly observe the situation here, after all, it is also unbearable to let the Lord be injured.

Cao Zhenyan had a knife in his throat, but he was still not afraid, and said in a deep voice: "Little thief, you just rely on the advantage of the blade, I don't accept it, I don't accept it!" You have a kind of ...... with me" Li Yijie slashed his life tightly, and said: "This is not a martial arts, just win, who cares if you obey it or not?" Let your people put down their weapons and retreat farther." ”

Cao Zhenyan said angrily: "Li Yijie, betray Concubine Yun, don't think about having good fruits to eat...... You...... You don't want us to surrender......" Li Yijie said: "I can't help you." Can't give an order?" I had no choice but to say: "Everyone put down their weapons." Back off. ”

Li Yijie said: "Who instructed the matter of sealing the tomb and releasing poisonous smoke? As long as there is a dishonest sentence, I will cut your neck." Cao Zhenyan sneered: "Who else can there be? Who else do you say?" Concubine Yun knows that you are kind-hearted, and she will definitely refuse to use the identity of the alliance leader to frame your subordinates, so she has to hide this matter from ......you."

Li Yijie said angrily: "Nonsense!" Cao Zhenyan said: "Whether I am talking nonsense or not, you will know if you go and inquire." Li Yijie, you liked that lonely little girl back then, but she ......" Li Yijie shouted: "Shut up! I don't believe what you say, I don't believe a word." Cao Zhenyan said: "Believe it or not." ”
