Chapter 10 The first sunny day after the snow is as white as mourning
The Meishan Emperor's Mausoleum was opened, and several figures flew over, facing each other left and right on a hill not far from the Ming Tomb.
The people on the left are Wei Wuji and Zhao Wouji, and the people on the right are the two great people of the Daomen, Gongsun Defeat and Li Chuang, the four of them, as big figures in the court and the Daomen, naturally know that the mysteries of the Meishan Emperor's Mausoleum are terrifying, and that is a place where even the real people of the sect are not willing to set foot easily, so at this time, the two great people of the Daomen have already retreated.
Of course, although Wei Wuji and Zao Wou-Ki are the old ministers of the first emperor, they don't want to get involved easily, after all, they don't know too much about the mysteries, if they are trapped in it, as the legend says, they become ghosts and generals who serve the old master, not only cut off the path to immortality, but also have to never be reborn, then why bother?
Wei Wuji took a step back and assumed a posture dominated by Zao Wou-Ki.
Zhao Wou-Ki didn't give in too much, just glanced at him and then retracted his gaze, as early as the battle of the deer, Praruo, Zhang Dingguo, Wei Xianji and the three of them became friends with each other, and even became brothers of the opposite sex, but the latter two were members of the White Lotus Sect, and Praruo was one of the four secret guards in the secret guard mansion directly belonging to Emperor Xiao, and later Zhang Dingguo and Wei Xianji returned to Emperor Xiao, and Praruo could be said to be indispensable, but the means were slightly disgraceful, and because of this, although the other two still recognized the big brother of Panruo in name, there was a huge gap between them that was difficult to cross.
Later, Emperor Xiao gave the three of them the names Wuji, Wuji, and Wuji, and after the three of them also entered the Tiance Mansion, the Dadu Governor's Mansion and the Secret Guard Mansion respectively, because of their different positions, they went farther and farther away, and the already not thick brotherhood almost dissipated, leaving only an empty name that no one would take the initiative to mention.
Zhao Wouji's hands and five fingers opened and closed slightly, and suddenly remembered the second brother Zhang Wuxian who was far away in the northwest, in all fairness, among the three brothers, only Zhang Wuxian was the most upright, but Zhang Wuji, who was most like a righteous gentleman, had several ups and downs, and now he was not only completely away from the imperial capital, but also away from their two righteous brothers.
Zao Wou-Ki, who had fallen into some untimely contemplation, did not rush to speak.
However, Gongsun was a little breathless, hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to say: "Although our camps are different, to put it bluntly, we are all our own masters, and we can't talk about life and death." β
Zao Wou-ki, who came back to his senses, smiled lightly, "It is a matter of the rise and fall of the world, and it is even more important than the enmity of life and death." β
Gongsun Defeat's face was a little ugly.
On the contrary, Li Chuang, who seemed to be a rough man, said indifferently: "You and I have fought this time, regardless of victory or defeat, now that the Meishan Emperor's Mausoleum is open, it is no longer easy for us to intervene, it is better to retreat, let's go back to Xuandu, you go to see His Majesty the Emperor, don't say goodbye, how about it?"
Wei Wuji sneered: "How can there be such a good thing in the world, you can come if you want, you can leave if you want, even if you are from the Daomen, you can't help but take Your Majesty and the court too seriously." β
Gongsun Defeat's face changed slightly, and he said coldly: "What do you want to do? Do you want to leave us to punish the crime? Even if we are guilty, it is our own business, and it is up to the master to decide it personally, and it is not your turn for the court to ride on our heads and point fingers." β
Zao Wou-Ki's eyes were gloomy.
......
Imperial Capital, Secret Guard Mansion, White Tiger Hall.
Duanmu Ruisheng, dressed in a black official robe, sat upright in the high hall, and the two seats beside him were empty.
He gently stroked the table in front of him, and then looked at the many secret guards standing solemnly in the hall.
The entire White Tiger Hall was silent, and the needle drop could be heard.

Duanmu Ruisheng retracted his gaze, his eyes were slightly dazed, and he suddenly remembered many old events.
Today's Duanmu clan is prominent and noble, if it weren't for the young man surnamed Xu who stepped in sideways, he would even be able to marry Her Royal Highness the princess, and its status can be seen. But as early as sixty years ago, the Duanmu clan was still a down-and-out family that was driven out of Shuzhou by the Shuzhou Tang clan, and the head of the Duanmu clan at that time was not him Duanmu Ruisheng, but his father Duanmu Linlang.
The reason why there is today's Duanmu family is because Duanmu Ruisheng made a big gamble on behalf of his father. At that time, Emperor Xiao did not call himself the king and emperor, and even had the name of a northwest traitor, but he chose to follow Emperor Xiao at that time, which led to the future of the dragon and the so-called "Three Heroes of Qi Chu".
Now, he's going to make another big gamble.
It became, and it went further.
Defeated, doomed.
This is not only a helpless move after being cornered, but also a desperate fight to be forced into a corner.
In the first year of Chengping, the reason why the Blue Party was able to win was because the powerful Queen Mother chose to support the Blue Party, or chose to suppress the Han Party, and this time, the Queen Mother was no longer there, and His Majesty the Emperor, who took over the power of the temple, chose to stand on Han Xuan's side.
The reason why Duanmu Ruisheng was able to become the governor of the palm seal of the Dark Guard Mansion was precisely because he stood in the right position in the first year of Chengping, so in the next twenty years, all the way up, but unfortunately it was also a blue jade, and the defeat was also a blue jade, with the defeat of the blue jade in the second blue Korean party battle, the blue party building will fall, the trees will fall and scatter, and they have chosen another high branch to attach to, and Duanmu Ruisheng, who chose blue jade again, is extremely embarrassing.
If there is a choice, Duanmu Ruisheng also wants to switch to the court, but this time he didn't have a choice, because with the collapse of the blue jade mansion, there is another thing that gradually surfaces, that is, he has colluded with the Ghost King Palace, in fact, it is just a mutual use, but at the critical moment when His Majesty the Emperor intends to kill chickens and monkeys, it has become a monstrous crime that is difficult to argue.
According to the rules of those corrupt Confucianism, the king called the minister to die, and the minister had to die, but Duanmu Ruisheng didn't want to abide by this rule, so he took advantage of the chaos when the King of Wei and others came to attack, and returned to the imperial capital city while the chaos was there.
Duanmu Ruisheng turned his head to look at the hanging neck white tiger behind him, and sighed softly, he seemed to be bold all his life, but in fact, he was walking on thin ice, so many times he was afraid to consider, weigh, trade-off, and gamble, in exchange for this white tiger that did not lose to the Qilin of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and I don't know if he can sit here again after today.
Duanmu Ruisheng retracted his gaze and said in a deep voice: "Pass on the order of the Governor, and I will take over the Nine Gates by the Secret Guard Mansion, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without the warrant of the Governor." β
A Dark Guard Mansion Cavalry Commander stepped forward and said respectfully, "No." β
Duanmu Ruisheng then asked, "How is the situation in the cabinet?"
One of the Secret Guards replied, "Returning to the Governor, there is nothing abnormal. β
Duanmu Ruisheng subconsciously leaned forward slightly and asked, "Where is King Zhao Xiaoqi?"
The Commander of the Dark Guard Mansion said in a deep voice, "Guarantee that nothing goes wrong. β
Duanmu Ruisheng leaned back in his chair, his face softened slightly, and said softly: "Okay, remember, this is a big deal, and there can't be a half-point difference." β
"Understood. β
"Also, the peony in the city is also a big variable, start cleaning it up, especially the princess's mansion, you should pay more attention. β
"Someone has been sent to do it. β
"As for the rest, the camera decides. β
"The subordinates understand. β
Duanmu Ruisheng waved his hand, and everyone left separately.
He got up alone and paced to the door, looking out at the snow.
Plain white as mourning.
