Chapter 15: The Sword of the Son of Heaven

The leader of the army to attack the Valley of Despair is the Xiangyang Mansion guard Meng Zongzheng's son Meng Heng, Meng Heng was a teenager with his father in the army cāo practice, now he is twenty-five years old, he started from the bottom of the officers and soldiers, step by step to the position of the general, years of military career let him have a strong insight into the shape of the battlefield, it is he who saw at a glance that the war that is taking place in Xiangyang is a fake fight.

Partial general Meng Hui looked at the emperor beside him, he was puzzled, he was young, courageous, along the way the emperor and Yan Yue sè, and he exchanged a lot of questions on the art of war, it seems that the emperor is not only good, but also knows how to fight strategy, not as ruthless as his father said, so he had the courage to ask many generals the doubts in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that this battle with the Jin Kingdom can't hide the eyes of all parties, once the news leaks......"

Before Meng Heng's words were finished, he was frightened back by the cold eyes of the emperor's majesty, and when he saw that look, he felt cold, could this be the majesty of the Son of Heaven?

His Majesty the Emperor didn't know that the truth of this war would leak out, and those soldiers would only obey orders, and they would not think about why they did it, but the generals who were the commanders knew in their hearts that this was a fake fight, whether it was the generals of the Jin State or the generals of the Song State, including the Mongols, they would know that it was just a matter of time.

This is exactly what Yang Kang's purpose is, even if these people don't leak the news, he will send people to spread the news, this fake fight between the two countries is ostensibly to appease the public anger in the Song State, but in fact, it is a prelude to the emperor's majesty to deal with the powerful minister Shi Miyuan, because this matter has nothing to do with him.

The strategy of feint attack was proposed by Shi Miyuan, and sending envoys to discuss with Jin was also made by Shi Miyuan, and it was Shi Miyuan's idea to falsely report military merits and casualties among soldiers, Yang Kang only did one thing, he secretly sent Lou Shidao to Jin State to ensure that the plan was carried out, otherwise King Rong would not pay attention to the envoys of Song State.

Once the news of the fake fight between the two countries spread, Prime Minister Shi Miyuan colluded with the Jin State to fool the people and cāo Zong......

It is conceivable that at that time, all the spearheads will be pointed at the Prime Minister, and the Emperor Majesty is just a poor puppet who is controlled by Cāo, who would believe that a new emperor who has just ascended the throne for more than two months will have anything to do with the Jin State, the Emperor Majesty Xià has obtained a sympathy vote, and the black pot is carried by the Prime Minister.

In this way, the resentment of the people of the Song State will no longer be directed at the Jin State, but will turn to Prime Minister Shi Miyuan. His Majesty the Emperor stabbed the long sword that attacked the Jin Kingdom into the chest of the Prime Minister, and this sword was like an antelope hanging on its horns, without a trace, and it had reached the level of a great master of swordsmanship in the realm.

The reason why Yang Kang glared at Meng Heng was because he felt that this little general was talking too much, you just need to be a little general, but you have to cāo the emperor's heart, can you know these things casually?

When the emperor and the general were angry, the army of the Song State had already rushed into the Valley of Despair, and in the face of the invasion of the army, the disciples of the Valley of Desperation were completely unstoppable, and they were killed by random arrows in the hasty escape, and the Valley of Desperation, which had been calm for hundreds of years, was about to be destroyed.

Ouyang Feng originally thought that it was a disciple of the Ruthless Valley who lied about the military situation and wanted to lure him away, but when he walked out of the hall, he found that the outside was in an extreme chaos, and countless arrows came from a distance.

This place is not to stay for long!

Ouyang Feng turned back to the hall, grabbed Gongsun Zhi, turned around to look for Ouyang Ke, and prepared to leave the Valley of Despair, he also wanted to get the magic skill of closing the acupoint from the master of the Valley of Desperation, but Ouyang Ke had been thrown into the love flower bush by the disciples of the Valley of Desperation to guard, and when the West Poison found Ouyang Ke, this Ouyang Gongzi was suffering from painful torture.

This scene made Xi Poison extremely angry, and he forced Gongsun Zhi to hand over the antidote, but the Ruthless Pill was in the hands of Qiu Qianqi, and by the time Ouyang Feng rushed back to the hall, Qiu Qianqi and Qiu Qianren's support in the Desperate Valley had already left, and the prestige of the Iron Palm Lotus Qiu Qianqi in the Valley of Despair was even higher than that of Gongsun Zhi.

The army of the Song Kingdom is getting closer and closer, and the West Poison has no choice but to take Gongsun Zhi and Ouyang Ke to break through outside, as long as Gongsun Zhi is not afraid of the formula of the antidote to the love flower in his hand, Ouyang Feng is carrying two people to use his body to speed in the valley, there is only one exit from the Valley of Despair, and Yang Kang and Meng Heng are guarding there.

Emperor Xi didn't expect that the masters in the Valley of Despair were like clouds, he thought that with the army to move forward, Gongsun Zhi had only a dead end, and when the people in the valley were cleaned up, he would go in to check the situation, Yang Kang didn't expect to see Ouyang Feng here, looking at Ouyang Feng's unbearable appearance, he had the urge to kill, but there were soldiers all around, and his identity would be exposed at this time, so he had to hold back and watch Ouyang Feng break through.

In the Valley of Despair, Qiu Qianren and Qiu Qianqi lost all their internal strength, and fled towards the cliff behind the valley with the support of the disciples of the Valley of Despair, there was a rope along the cliff, and there was a platform below, which was where Qiu Qianqi practiced in Pingri, Qiu Qianqi asked his brother to hold the rope and go down, and when Qiu Qianren fell on the platform, she asked the disciples of the Valley of Despair to cut the rope.

Iron Palm Lotus knew that if he also went down, these disciples of the Desperate Valley would inevitably go down, and he would always leave one person to cut the rope, otherwise he would be detected by the officers and soldiers, and no one would be willing to stay and be killed, only if he stayed these disciples would be at ease, and when the rope was cut and his brother was confirmed to be safe, Qiu Qianqi commanded the disciples to flee in the other direction, at this time, Qiu Qianren, who was at the bottom of the cliff, did not know that his sister had left him the hope of life, and their brother and sister were similar, so it was very easy to quarrel, but they were all thinking about each other in their hearts。

An hour later, His Majesty the Emperor walked into the Valley of Despair and saw Qiu Qianqi who was seriously injured, he asked him to take Qiu Qianchi back to Xiangyang City, Yang Kang wanted to figure things out, why did Ouyang Feng appear in the Valley of Despair, otherwise he really didn't dare to use the Valley of Despair as a base, it was originally a very secret place, and once it was known by the West Poison, it was likely to become a place of death.

Xiao Bi looked at Meng Heng, who was as beautiful as a flower, and then looked at the strange emperor Majesty, and couldn't help but guess in his heart, this woman was probably not the assassin who assassinated the first emperor, but the people's daughter who the emperor wanted to occupy, so he did not hesitate to send 30,000 troops, no wonder the folk rumors that the emperor was a faint monarch.

In the winter of 1219 AD, the war between the Song State and the Jin State in Xiangyang City finally ended, which lasted one and a half months, and the two sides suffered a total of 250,000 soldiers killed and wounded, of course, these are official figures, and finally the two countries discussed under the city of Xiangyang, the Song Emperor Zhao Yun and the Jin Emperor Wanyan Hongxi signed the "Xiangyang Collegiate Agreement", the content of the collegial agreement includes that the two countries still maintain the relationship between uncle and nephew, the year coin is still the same, the Song State compensated the Jin State for 1 million taels of military silver, and the Jin State verbally announced that the emperor of the Song State was not assassinated.

This million taels of silver is just to make up for the consumption of money and food in the Jin army in a month and a half, after all, it costs money to fight, in addition, the emperor gave the Jin country some urgently needed materials, he naturally knows what the Jin country lacks the most, this is a gift to the third uncle, thank King Rong for such cooperation, let him get through this political crisis, King Rong nodded with satisfaction, and left with a high spirit.

The generals of the Song State were all indignant about this, and it was okay to fake a fight with the Jin State, but in the end, they had to send money and materials to the Jin State, it was not as good as fighting to the death with the Jin Army with real swords and guns, even if they died, they were more happy, looking at these angry generals, His Majesty the Emperor knew that the time had come to test his acting skills.

"This qiē is all arranged by the prime minister, how can I want to be so humiliated. His Majesty the Emperor said with tears in his eyes and complaining.

It is precisely because of this sentence of the emperor that in the following period of time, the Song State set off a vigorous movement to bring down the Jiān minister Shi Miyuan, from the military to the scholar class, all public opinion attacked Shi Miyuan, and the emperor was portrayed as a cowardly and incompetent but still conscience image, so Yang Kang can also explain to the Mongols, this is not my fault, it is all Shi Miyuan asked me to do.

Near the end of the year, His Majesty the Emperor left Xiangyang City and returned to the court.

On the night of the fourth day of the return trip, in the barracks, a figure shuttled through it, this figure came to the palace of the emperor's majesty, knocked down the guards of the sergeant, entered the emperor's tent, and grabbed the dragon couch, he wanted to hold the emperor of Song hostage in exchange for his sister.

This person is the former Iron Palm Gang leader Qiu Qianren, he stayed at the bottom of the cliff of the Valley of Despair for more than ten days, and climbed the cliff after the recovery of martial arts, and found that the Valley of Despair was in a mess, there was a sergeant on patrol, he grabbed the sergeant and asked, only to know that his sister was arrested by the emperor, he hurried to Xiangyang City, the emperor had already left Xiangyang, and only caught up after two days of chase, for his sister he did not hesitate to kill another emperor of the Song Kingdom.

When Qiu Qianren's hand just grabbed the bedding on the couch, a sharp sword stabbed Qiu Qianren's chest at a strange angle, Qiu Qianren was caught off guard, so he had to hold the sword with his palms, his pair of iron palms were as hard as jing iron, so that the sword could not pierce the chest, the person on the couch gave up the sword, the bow rushed into Qiu Qianren's body, and one hand grabbed the chest of the iron palm gang leader, which was the Jiuyin white bone claw.

Qiu Qianren felt a pain in his chest, and wanted to retreat, but the person followed him like a shadow, slapped a palm, and Qiu Qianren's iron palm struck together, and a strong force knocked Qiu Qianren back one after another, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang didn't expect to meet a master of the same level as him here, is it a trap or the emperor himself is ......

His Majesty the Emperor didn't give Qiu Qianren time to think, he couldn't expose the martial arts thing, Yang Kang picked up the long sword on the ground, bullied forward, and stabbed Qiu Qianren's vital point, Qiu Qianren's chest was already injured by the white bone claws of Jiuyin, and he wanted to escape but was entangled by the sword, he didn't shout, because he was an assassin, if he attracted a sergeant and couldn't escape, Yang Kang would not shout either.

In the darkness, there was silence.

The two masters fought desperately in the big tent, the situation was extremely dangerous, they had to put each other to death in every move, and finally the emperor His Majesty ended Qiu Qianren's life with a sword, and it was only at this time that Yang Kang breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't expect Qiu Qianren to come and assassinate him, this was a complete accident.

His Majesty the Emperor gasped in a low voice, slowly recovered, he looked at Qiu Qianren's corpse, this was the first quasi-peerless master he killed, although there was a suspicion of a sneak attack, but it was definitely a manifestation of strength, he no longer had to worry about the assassination of the top master, even if he couldn't kill the other party, at least he would protect himself and escape.

Since then, he has held the imperial power in one hand and the sword in the other, and he asks who else in the world can shake his throne. (To be continued.) )
