At the end of the seventeenth year, Qi Liang experienced heavy snow unprecedented since the founding of the country.
At the beginning of the eighteenth year, the heavy snow stopped, the lanterns flew, the red was happy, and the whole country celebrated in the Southern Dynasties.
Even on a certain night when the undercurrent was surging, the part of the people in the power center of Lanling City was so worried that they didn't dare to sleep, but the night passed and it was confirmed that it was just a false alarm.
The young man in the white robe did not draw his sword.
The night passed, and the young man in white had no blood on his hands.
Lanling City is still as clean as yesterday.
The same night, thousands of miles away.
Xiguan is not peaceful.
......
......
"Huan Tu died poor?"
His Royal Highness was a little incredulous.
The voice on the other side of the summons paused slightly: "Yuan Zhongzhong personally killed, this news will be the first to reach Yincheng, or it won't be long before Qi Liang will learn about it." โ
Wei Lingshan was far away, and he was talking about the news of Yincheng these days on the side of the summons.
All this news came an hour ago.
Therefore, the stunned and unbelievable side of His Royal Highness, Wei Lingshan's side will not notice it at the first time.
The woman's voice was soft and coherent.
"Just last night, Huan Tuqiao's old rider hung Yan Bailou's head on the Xiguan banner and climbed the Xiguan barrier, and at the same time, the shadow of Xiguan entered the ethereal slope alone, and wanted to carry Yuan Zhongzhong's head to toast Li Qing......"
Huan Tuqiao broke with Yuan Zhongzhong, but unfortunately this man's approach was not cautious enough, even if there was a buffer and planning for more than ten days, he finally chose a positive heads-up, wanting to use the sword in his hand to solve the old things, and to understand kindness and hatred. โ
Wei Lingshan's voice paused, "The appearance of Ren Pingsheng has already awakened Yuan Zhongzhong's vigilance, Yan Bailou is just a chess piece that asks for directions, it doesn't matter if he dies, Yincheng sent three domain masters to suppress it overnight after the West Ferry, originally wanted to suppress Ren Pingsheng who was a great consummation of swordsmanship, but it happened to run into Huan Tu Poor, who rode into the ethereal alone." โ
"Huan Tu is poor...... Never came out again. โ
The county lord said with some regret: "The subordinates of Xiguan Shadow were vigorously purged, almost all of them were sentenced to death, the head of Yan Bailou hanging on the Xiguan barrier was removed, and Huan Tuqiao's body was hung on the shadow banner of the old Xiguan department, and traveled around Xiguan for three thousand miles, and finally came to the Xiguan barrier, replacing the dead governor of Xiguan, and suffered humiliation. โ
Yi Xiao was a little stunned.
Over there, Wei Lingshan's voice continued.
"The wrestling in Xiguan ended in the failure of Huan Tuqi, and the old department representing Li Qing's last will was uprooted and cleaned up, Xiguan can be regarded as Yuan Zhongzhong's word......" The county lord muttered: "Think about it carefully...... There is also a man who has survived this turmoil, and has even been given a chance and a gift. However, he is a pawn buried by Cao Zhixuan, Li Qing's ashes are cold in Xiguan, and no one will go to toast. โ
His Royal Highness thought of the Jiang Qingyi who would pour a glass of wine on the tomb of the great feudal king of Xiguan on the ethereal slope every day.
The summons made the other side sigh slightly.
Wei Lingshan said softly: "Xiguan is turbulent, but Yincheng has not been affected, so everything is fine, don't worry about it." โ
After this, there was no movement from the summons.
His Royal Highness relieved himself a little, and immediately set off to find Mr. Qi Shu.
......
......
In the Lao She Tea House, Mr. Qi Shu, as usual, came here every day, borrowed tea and read books, and the desk in the separate private room was full of miscellaneous books, covering a wide range of topics, and the ideas recorded were on another pile of yellowed rice paper, which was mixed and obscure.
"The news of Tianque has just arrived. โ
Mr. Qi Shu wrapped himself in a thick jacket, raised his head and glanced at His Royal Highness, and motioned for him to sit down.
While writing the memo, he said with a smile: "Your Highness is so concerned about the affairs of Xiguan, and the news you got so quickly, it was probably the county lord who sent a text message?"
His Royal Highness couldn't calm his mind.
He said with a complicated face: "Sir...... Huan Tu is really dead?"
I have in mind the scene of the man at the West Ferry resolutely getting on his horse and leaving.
Ride the dust.
He was willing to endure and knelt down and bowed to Qi Liang for Xiguan.
is also willing to apologize to himself in a low voice and admit his mistakes.
Such a man would choose to enter the camp recklessly, thinking about separating life and death between Shan Jian and Yuan Zhongzhong?
Qi Shu paused.
He nodded and said calmly: "Not only is he dead, but he is also dying desolate and humiliating." โ
He overestimated the status of the word love and righteousness in the eyes of others, and he only served one person in his life. That person took the word love and righteousness very seriously, and happened to sit on the seat of the king of Xiguan Domain, and he happened to be obedient to Xiguan. โ
"But that's not the case for everyone. โ
If you want to see the world clearly, you need to play it away, and become indifferent and ruthless. Mr. Qi Shu said with a face as usual: "Obviously, Yuan Zhongzhong is such a person, and his affection is worthless in his eyes. โ
"Li Qing was able to suppress Yuan Zhongzhong during his lifetime, but how long can he suppress it after death?" Qi Shu raised his eyebrows: "After Xiguan has no owner, can there be a glass of wine from Yuan Zhongzhong in front of the white robe's grave?"
"Your Highness, you need to know ......"
"Not everyone is as grateful as Xu Zhirou and will not hesitate to die. โ
Qi Shu raised his head and looked straight at Yi Xiao.
His Royal Highness pursed his lips.
He lowered his eyes and said, "Huan Tu is poor, he could have ...... No need to die. โ
Qi Shu smiled and said lightly: "Yes, he obviously has enough time to plan, as long as he doesn't tear his face, Yuan Zhongzhong will not kill him, but he just stood up, so he died." In a different position, His Royal Highness put survival in the first place, but Huan Tu only wanted a result. Compared with the scene where Yuan Zhongzhong now monopolizes power, Qi Liang hopes that Huan Tuqi can win this wrestling, but it is a pity that in terms of ability, mentality, and strategy, Yuan Sizhi is more than one step stronger than him. โ
Yi Xiao was silent, not knowing what she was thinking.
He was actually thinking that Huan Tuqian pulled out his sword and slammed it down, knocking himself to death, which was actually a very sad thing.
Xiguan Shadow has always been a character with the color of rivers and lakes.
He followed Li Qing to walk the world and sat in Xiguan.
When the white robe gave him wine, he used his sword to kill people, and he was a taboo assassin for sixteen years. Wherever Xiguan's will goes, this shadow will follow.
But one day......
He walked out of the shadows, and he walked out of the rivers and lakes.
To die on the ethereal slope is to die in the temple.
The positions of each other are different, and Yi Xiao has never even noticed a trace of sadness in his heart.
He just felt a little sorry.
A person cannot even die to get what he wants.
The fish died in the dry water, and it is not a pity to die.
But if you die in the desert, you won't be able to see it. ......
......
Qi Shu took out the map of the Central Plains with great interest.
It's just right, so there's no need to light up.
He stood up, his hands pressed against the table, the old map marked with his incomprehensible markings.
He lightly swiped his fingertips across the West Pass and paused on the ethereal slope.
Then connect a straight line.
Leads to the Xiguan Barrier.
Jiang Qingyi was transferred to the Xiguan barrier by Yuan Zhongzhong, ostensibly to promote this young man from a poor family, but in fact, he suppressed the supervision of Luoyang without a trace. Mr. Qi Shu lowered his head and looked at the map, and said calmly: "Jiang Qingyi has been transferred, and the ethereal slope has completed the concentration of royal power in a sense, and can even jump out of the Northern Wei Dynasty at any time to declare independence...... It's a pity that Xiguan suffers from the enemy on his back, if it really turns against the water, no matter how strong the combat power of the Sixteen Character Battalion is, it will be isolated and helpless at that time, and it will not be able to hold Cao Zhixuan's thighs, and it will definitely be used as a piece of fat on the chopping board. โ
One of Qi Shu's fingers landed on the Xiguan barrier, and his other hand moved slowly.
The fingertips tapped lightly on the heart of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Luoyang.
"Jiang Qingyi is the only hub between the Northern Wei Dynasty and Xiguan, so Yuan Zhongzhong will never touch a single hair of him, and he must also ensure that his career is smooth, and his official rank can only be promoted but not demoted. โ
Qi Shu nodded Luoyang, stretched his brows and said: "There is Ren Pingsheng by his side holding a sword to protect him, just in terms of kendo attainments, Ren Pingsheng can rank in the top five in the world, not counting those demons, and his combat power can also squeeze into the top ten in the world." โ
"When it comes to partisan involvement, the situation in Xiguan is tense now, and countless people are worried, worried that they still have a sip of wine to drink today, and their heads will fall to the ground tomorrow, but Jiang Qingyi is so safe that he can't be safer anymore. A smile appeared on Qi Shu's thin cheeks, "Xiguan is like a big pond, and it always has to raise a big fish, and the candidate for this big fish has already been decided, and it is useless to toss small fish and shrimp no matter how powerful." โ
His Royal Highness quietly looked at this thin man who was very bookish.
Qi Shu's smile had a hint of coldness.
"I know this, Your Highness also knows, and Your Majesty knows even more. Qi Shu said coldly: "The outline of the government can be seen by anyone who has some eyes. โ
Yi Xiao found that what was heavier than the bookish qi on Qi Shu's body was the killing qi.
His Majesty had never mentioned why Qi Shu was able to receive such a generous treatment.
In the temples of the Central Plains, in recent years, the saying of "Southern Qi Shu Northern Light Clothes" has emerged.
It is probably a point where two young men who are promoted very quickly, separated by tens of millions of miles from each other, can play.
Qi Shu suppressed his murderous spirit and said: "Jiang Qingyi was transferred to the Xiguan barrier, and he became famous in a battle, just this year. โ
He looked at Yi Xiao and said word by word: "Qi Shu dares to say that here, the north and south of the Qi River, the beacon of Beigu Su Road, and the barrier of Xiguan, the two are thousands of miles away from the Demon Palace, and if you want to do it in the Western Regions, you must choose one of them." โ
He suddenly laughed.
"The master of the Western Regions is a famous demon in the world, and the road of cultivation is much more difficult than the road of power and conspiracy, she must be a person with great perseverance, and she will not avoid the trivial when making a decision, and act carefully. โ
Qi Shu raised his hands to one place and slowly parted.
Pull a very long front.
"The two lines of the north and south, whether it is the beacon or the barrier, whoever kills ruthlessly is the first target of Western Xia. โ
"And I, Qi Shu, is not in Fengsui, and His Royal Highness will not attack, it must be a barrier to slaughter the demon clan. โ
Murderous aura overflowed from the fingertips.
"Just this year, Xiguan and Daxia ...... There will be a battle!"
"Battle for the Breakdown!"
