In the more than 3,000-year history of the Tiansheng Dynasty, there have been countless monarchs with great talents and strategies, as well as many heroes with thunderous means.
They are like stars in the night sky, shining brightly in the long river of history, leaving all kinds of exciting legends or beautiful and mysterious rumors to the world... Among these people, the most criticized and respected ones are well-deserved. The most prosperous person is undoubtedly the Shengwu Emperor: Xiao Yi, known as the "Crazy Emperor".
He destroyed twenty-three kingdoms and unified the 25 million square kilometers of Asia's ancient continent.
He suppressed the government and the public, punished corruption, promoted agriculture, emphasized commerce, and developed industry. All nations came to the court, which brought the national power and prestige to an unprecedented peak, and created the most prosperous "Yuanjing Era" in the Tiansheng Dynasty.
But at the same time, for the throne, he killed his father, brother, wife and son. The father and brother were killed, the aunt was killed, the first wife was killed, the queen was killed, and the only third son killed two, leaving only a trace of blood.
There are piles of bones under his throne, and his prosperity cannot hide the rivers of blood.
After his death, he did not enter the imperial mausoleum or be buried together. He was only buried in the old Prince Duan Mansion. The only thing buried with him was a jade tablet that he had snatched from Xiao Wei's hand.
In his life, Xiao Yi did not respect gods and Buddhas, was not afraid of ghosts, and was not afraid of retribution. He was only afraid of losing Shen Zhuo, but he lost Shen Zhuo with his own hands.
Xiao Wei sneered: "To say he is the devil is really flattering the devil."
"All the devils put together are no match for the little finger of my father."
01 To report or not to report? This is a problem
In the evening, the sun sets on the Manggu Plain. The afterglow of the setting sun burns the white clouds in the sky into a fiery cloud. It looks particularly majestic and magnificent in the blue-gray sky. It also makes the blood-covered earth under the sky particularly desolate.
Yes, a battle has just ended in this vast land, and there are broken armor and broken halberds everywhere as far as the eye can see.
Under the setting sun, a huge and solid city outline stood silently not far from the battlefield, like an ancient and huge stone beast on the plain, solemn and majestic.
Several flags on the city wall with red characters on a white background rustled in the wind, with a large "Yu" written on them. This city is the capital of Yu State: Agu City.
On the plain outside the moat of Agu City, there are countless military camps and tents stationed so densely that you can't see them all at a glance.
A large flag was erected outside the camp gate, with a black background and gold rim, and a "Xiao" embroidered with red gold and red thread! It is the flag that Tiansheng Emperor Xiao Yi personally marched on.
At this time, in the Tiansheng Army's central commander's tent, seven or eight generals were making deductions and arguing on the sand table.
"Agu City is now an isolated city. Our army has been besieging them for more than half a month. I think we can use a force attack!" The young pioneer officer is young and energetic, with high fighting spirit.
"It's inappropriate to attack by force." A middle-aged general immediately retorted with a calm voice.
"The wall of Agu City is high and thick, easy to defend but difficult to attack. It has never been attacked from the front for hundreds of years. It is listed as one of the ten most difficult cities to attack in the Agu Continent. It is not for nothing! I think it still needs to be slowly Picture it."
"In my opinion, it can be attacked by force! It has not been broken before, but it does not mean that it can never be broken." Another young general stood up to support the theory of forceful attack.
"Our army has just won a victory. It's a time when morale is high. It's time to go all out and capture Agu City in one fell swoop!"
"Don't be impatient and rush forward! Although our army won before, the opponent did not lose too many troops. How could we know that this is not their plan to lure the enemy? I think we should wait and see."
． ． ． ． ． ．
For a time, everyone in the tent expressed their opinions and refused to give in to each other. The whole tent was noisy like boiling water.
There is a man sitting on the head of the handsome tent, wearing a mysterious robe with gold and brocade and a jade crown on his head. He is about thirty-four or five years old. He has high eyebrows and deep eyes, handsome features, and a face as tough as a chisel or an axe. Every line is like a sharp edge, making people afraid to look directly at him.
At this moment, his eyes were slightly lowered, and he was in a superior position and remained silent, as if he had ignored the quarrels in the account, and as if he was carefully thinking about every word everyone said.
"Whether it's an attack or a siege, it's up to Your Majesty to decide!" An old general with white hair and beard bowed his hand to the man on the throne.
The person in charge is none other than the current emperor of the Tiansheng Dynasty: Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi raised his eyelids and scanned the crowd lightly. Wherever he looked, everyone stopped and held their breath. Finally, he stopped at a figure that had been silent.
"General Lin, what do you think?"
"I think I want to attack, but I can't attack by force, but attack skillfully."
Although the person who spoke was wearing armor, she was clearly a woman, and she was also pregnant!
Everyone in the tent seemed to be used to it.
The entire Tiansheng Dynasty knows that Xiao Yi's Concubine Lin is a legendary woman who has never been confined to the harem. She has been on the battlefield with His Majesty for nearly ten years. She is his good general and good counselor.
"Tell me and listen." Xiao Yi's cold eyes softened.
"Your Majesty, Agu City is backed by Da Ming Mountain. This is its advantage and disadvantage." Lin Feifeng pointed at the sand table and began to talk confidently. ． ． ． ． ．
At this time, a fast horse came quickly outside the commander's tent and was stopped by the imperial guards guarding the commander's tent ten feet away.
"Whoever comes, dismount!"
The visitor quickly dismounted, untied his bag, took out a stack of official documents, and presented it with both hands.
"Commander, this is an important memorial from the cabinet. Please submit it to His Majesty for your approval."
Du Yang, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, took the memorial with both hands and returned the greeting: "Master Shang has worked hard all the way. Your Majesty is currently in the main tent discussing matters with the generals. After the discussion is completed, I will present the memorial. Master Shang also Please go and rest first.”
Shang Yun heard this but did not leave immediately. He stood there and hesitated for a long time. He pinched a small piece of gold in his purse, and then thought of the sad look on the face of Eunuch Fulai, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace. He finally gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and reached out to stop Du Yang who was about to leave.
Shang Yun approached Du Yang and whispered covertly: "Commander Du, when I came here I met Eunuch Fulai from the East Palace. He said that the one in the Leng Palace was very ill."
When Du Yang heard this, he suddenly felt that one was as big as the other! He glared at Shang Yun angrily, wishing he could plug his ears, pretending he had never heard this sentence.
The one in the cold palace is the current queen, His Majesty’s first wife! To be a queen but to be in the cold palace, you can only imagine how much trouble she will be in! How can ordinary people dare to get involved?
As soon as Shang Yun said these words, he suddenly felt relaxed. He held his purse, hummed a tune, and walked away with eight-figure steps.
No one in the court knew that Concubine Lin was a beloved concubine. Not only did she accompany the concubine all year round, but she also followed Xiao Yi on the battlefield under the title of "Fei Feng General" and made many military exploits. She was the woman Xiao Yi kept close to his heart.
Queen Shen Zhuo was the daughter of a guilty minister. The entire Shen family was slaughtered. Seeing that she was the biological mother of the prince, they spared her life. She was thrown into the cold palace and left to fend for herself.
There is one concubine in the world and one in the sky. It is said that there should be no suspense in handling related matters, but His Majesty has never abolished the queen. Lin Feifeng has received many favors, big and small, but has never waited for the queen to be established. grace.
So, the news that the Empress Leng Gong is seriously ill...report it, or not? What a conundrum!
Report it, Your Majesty and the imperial concubine are sleeping together in the commander's tent... Are you willing to give up your life or your future? But if you don't retaliate, what will really happen? The prince is still here. Are you willing to give up your life or your future?
They were all so worried that their scalps felt bald. He paced back and forth outside the commander's tent, until the meeting in the tent was over, until the moon was in the sky, until Xiao Yi and Lin Feifeng were about to go to sleep, he was still frowning, undecided, and turning Shang Yun over and over in his mind. Cursed profusely.
"Commander, did you drop something? I've been watching you wandering around here for more than an hour."
When Du Yang heard the sound and looked at the person coming, his eyes lit up and he was overjoyed: He was saved! He hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed the visitor, and greeted him warmly.
"Eunuch Jiang, do you want to be on duty in the account?"
Jiang Ning nodded and looked cautiously at Du Yang, who turned from sorrow to joy in a second and had a doggy smile on his face.
"I just received a message from Eunuch Fulai, saying that the man in Leng Palace is seriously ill..."
Jiang Ning's scalp exploded when he heard this! As the eunuch in charge of Xiao Yi, he knows better than anyone else the weight of the person in the cold palace. What a troublesome existence he is!
Du Yang finally threw the hot potato out. He no longer had to lower his head to count the ants. He suddenly felt refreshed and ran away quickly.
Jiang Ning stood silently, thinking for a long time, then slowly walked up to the handsome tent.
Jiang Ning walked to the door of the handsome tent, and when he was about to lift the curtain and enter, a long sword slanted towards him, stopping him. A slightly coercive voice came.
"The war is about to begin. It's better not to distract Your Majesty with irrelevant trivial matters. Eunuch Jiang, what do you think?"
