The three cows howled, but Zhan Feiyun strangled Destiny's throat, making them unable to make a sound.
Lu Bing sighed secretly, frowning as he watched his son being beaten like a ball by Xiaodong, but ignored him. He just waved to the Jinyi guards, and then realized that Shen Lian was not there either.
"Where is Shen Lian?"
Mr. Zhao grinned: "Shen Baihu is also in there."
Lu Bing took a deep breath and shook his head helplessly: "Zhan Feiyun will come out in a moment. If Niu San is still alive, he will be captured alive; if Niu San is already dead, he will be killed on the spot!"
Lu Bing's voice was not quiet. He deliberately let Zhan Feiyun in the room hear it. Sure enough, a suppressed exclamation came from the room.
Zhan Feiyun shouted in a low voice: "Shut up, everyone. Niu San said, the heart voodoo is afraid of light and sound. Only if we keep silent can the heart voodoo dare to come out."
Niu San tried his best to squeeze out a little sound from his throat, which was almost inaudible: "Let's hit the head, Li Ke can hear it, and the forehead is four, and Li Ye can't stop the fire..."
Then the squeeze was obviously tightened, and the room fell into silence again.
Seeing that things had come to this, Lu Bing knew that Niu San's life was in Zhan Feiyun's hands. Whether he lived or died depended on his luck, so he could only wait silently.
Xiaodong lost his energy and knew he couldn't break in, so he covered his face and sat next to Lu Yi, crying silently.
For a moment, the huge Xiao Mansion was quiet, with only the rustling sound of the autumn wind blowing through the treetops, and the sound of light or heavy breathing.
After a long time, there was a sound of breaking through the air in the room. It was the sound of a very fast wave of hands, followed by Zhan Feiyun's extremely disappointed and guilty sigh.
Then came the voices of everyone, ranging from surprise, joy and sadness. The curtains were immediately
After tearing it off, everyone in the room squinted their eyes collectively, adjusting to the bright light coming in.
Zhan Feiyun held Niu San's throat with one hand and rested his hand on Lao Dao's mouth, as if giving Lao Tao a "shh" gesture.
Everyone stared at the two people's faces. The old Taoist's face didn't seem to change much, but Wang Yingxiang's face changed rapidly, from green to white, from white to red, and then he coughed and spit out two mouthfuls of black blood.
Niu San was very happy: "Okay, okay, just give her some good antidote, like bezoar. The remaining poison doesn't matter."
Zhan Feiyun felt relieved when he watched Wang Yingxiang slowly open her eyes. Everyone gathered around and handed Wang Yingxiang water and medicine. Only Xiaodong walked up to Lao Dao and looked up at Zhan Feiyun.
Zhan Feiyun looked at Xiaodong with a sad expression: "Sorry, that thing is as thin as a gossamer and as fast as lightning. My hands are not fast enough..."
Xiaodong glared at Zhan Feiyun fiercely and without saying a word, he helped the old man up and turned to look at Lu Yi.
"Get me a car and take us back!"
Lu Yi lowered his head, waved to Jin Yiwei, and stepped forward to help Xiaodong lift Lao Dao up. Xiaodong pushed him aside and carried Lao Dao on his back to the car.
Xiaodong's small body, carrying Lao Dao's slender and tall body, looked quite ridiculous, but no one dared to laugh, and no one could laugh.
Qiaoqiao got up from the ground and helped Xiaodong help Lao Dao get into the carriage. Xiaodong glanced at Qiaoqiao and said nothing, and Jin Yiwei drove the carriage away.
Lu Bing took out a pill from his arms and threw it to Lu Yi: "This is the Jiuhua Jade Dew Pill given before Long Live. It has a magical effect in detoxifying."
effect. You go and feed it to the old man, it might be useful. Although you have good intentions, I'm afraid you won't get any good rewards. "
Lu Yi smiled bitterly and took the pills: "There is no choice but to do it. The second master is willing to risk his own life to save a few unrelated children. It is also a meritorious deed to be able to use his body to save another one.
You wouldn't blame me if you think about it. But with this view of the world, I am afraid that Jin Yiwei will not be able to enter in the future. "
Zhan Feiyun grabbed Niu San and walked out of the house. He stretched out his hand and pushed Niu San. Niu San stumbled towards the crowd as if he had been granted amnesty. After being supported, he turned back and pointed at Zhan Feiyun and cursed.
"He dared to rob the prison! He dared to resist the decree! He, he, he, he dared to put me between that little girl and the old Taoist! If you don't kill him, I, the Miao Border Mission, will not give up!"
Lu Bing's face darkened: "Niu San, don't forget your identity. If Long Live doesn't issue an order to release you, you will still be a prisoner in my prison!
Someone come! Catch him and throw him into prison again! Zhan Feiyun, do you want me to catch you, or do you want to catch you yourself? "
Zhan Feiyun smiled faintly and put his hands behind his back. Two royal guards came forward and put shackles and chains on Zhan Feiyun. A Jin Yiwei looked at the gold gloves on Zhan Feiyun's hand and hesitated.
"Sir, are the gloves of the headhunter... considered a weapon?"
Zhan Feiyun always keeps his gloves on his hands. His gloves are actually his weapons. Naturally, his weapons will be confiscated when he is imprisoned.
Zhan Feiyun smiled bitterly and said: "If I am not allowed to take these gloves in, please ask Mr. Lu to hand them over to Xiao Feng for me. Please do not fall into the hands of others."
Lu Bing shook his head: "What can a pair of gloves do? Let him wear them. He doesn't have to look like a frightened bird and embarrass the Jin Yiwei."
Zhan Feiyun and Niu San were detained together
After leaving, Wang Yingxiang struggled to catch up, but her feet were weak and she fell down before taking two steps. Fortunately, she was supported by her mother.
"Dad, Brother Zhan is here to save me! Master Second Temple is also here to save me! Dad, if you can find a way to save Brother Zhan, just do it!
I almost killed the entire Xiao family. I have no shame staying in the Xiao Mansion. Mom, I want to go home with you. "
Wang Tuiguan gritted his teeth. He didn't know that Zhan Feiyun had committed a crime, not to mention that he, a small Tuition Officer, would be helpless even if Xiao Feng came back. But he nodded anyway.
"Yingxiang, don't worry. Even if I risk my life, I will still find a way to save Zhan Feiyun. Don't worry, dad has a way!"
Then, Wang Tuiguan came up with his method. He wrote a long letter to Xiao Feng.
The letter included the ins and outs of Zhan Feiyun's imprisonment, as well as the recent rumors about Yan's house on the street, and asked Qiao Niang to choose a pigeon that seemed to fly the fastest.
Pigeons are faster than horses, and Xiao Feng has already received the letter while the horse carrying the message is still running on the road. The letter was so heavy that the pigeon was as tired as a dog. He was lying on the table panting, and he didn't even bother to drink water.
Xiao Feng read the letter, thought for a while, and ordered people to pack up and prepare to hit the road.
Zhang Wuxin and An Qingyue were both surprised. You must know that the Governor of Jiangnan came to Beijing without purpose, which would be suspected of treason!
Xiao Feng smiled bitterly and said: "We are just going north along the canal without leaving the boundary of Jiangnan. When I receive the order, we can continue going north. This can save a lot of time."
An Qingyue said suspiciously: "Something happened in the mansion. We know you are anxious, but can you tell from this letter that the court will call you back to the capital?"
Xiao Feng raised his hand
The letter: "At the end of the letter, there is a word written by Wang Yingxiang. The question she wants to ask is how she can atone for her sins."
An Qingyue frowned: "Why do you ask this? She didn't mean it, so how can she be guilty?"
Xiao Feng smiled: "This is Wang Yingxiang's cleverness. If she asks how to save Zhan Feiyun and how to save the second master, it will be unpredictable.
It's a matter of life and death, and no one can test the characters for Zhan Feiyun or Er Dangjia. But since the lives and deaths of these two people were caused by Wang Yingxiang, it makes some sense for Wang Yingxiang to think about how he can atone for his sins.
It's just that this question is too broad, and the results that can be measured are very limited, and there will be no particularly specific methods. "
An Qingyue took the letter, and as expected, there was only a big word "rescue" on the last page of the letter.
"The word 'save' is 'qiu' on the left and 'xun' on the right. 'Qiu' has the shape of 'shu'.
The ancient form of the word "shu" is "shu", which means traveling. '攵' is the form of 'reverse', so it is called 'reverse text', which means reversal.
On my way back, Wang Yingxiang asked me to test my handwriting. It was about what happened in my Xiao Mansion again. Due to circumstances, the imperial court must have summoned me back to Beijing to resolve the matter.
"Qiu" also has the shape of "fur". Fur is a kind of clothing to keep out the cold. People need fur when they go from a warm place to a cold place. I must be returning north. "
An Qingyue was already used to Xiao Feng's skill of measuring words. After hearing what he said, she had no doubts anymore. However, when she heard that she was going home, the princess who ran over still had some doubts.
"So, you took the Chinese calligraphy test for a long time, and only found out that to solve this matter, you need to go back.
I haven't found any specific method. Zhan Feiyun is resisting the decree. If you don't have anything to do,
Law, maybe you will be implicated too. "
Xiao Feng smiled: "It's okay, aren't we still here with you? If I am really implicated, you can ask your senior brother to help me beg for mercy. After all, if I die, won't you be able to survive?"
The princess blushed. Although she knew that Xiao Feng was joking, referring to the fact that she had to rely on him to take medicine, and had no other intention, the words always sounded a little wrong.
She stamped her feet feebly, not even picking up the dust: "They are talking about serious things! Do you still see anything?"
Xiao Feng smiled faintly: "You can't tell so many things in one word. But Wang Yingxiang was excited when she wrote this word, and the words contained more aura.
You may not know the origin of the word 'Qiu', right? The word "Qiu" is written on the oracle bones of ancient times, and it means grasping the wild beast with its hair spread out.
Look at the dots in the word 'Qiu', do they look like a wild beast ready to fight, with its hair bristle? Because the beast has to fight hard to do this.
When the ancients caught wild beasts, it was impossible for one person to defeat them. It required the cooperation of many people to catch the wild beasts. Therefore, the oldest meaning of the word 'Qiu' is to ask others for help in hunting together.
When I go back this time, I have to face a wounded and desperate beast, and I need to cooperate with others to catch this beast.
'Qiu' has the shape of a 'ball', and Yan Shifan's nickname is 'East Tower', but his character is 'Deqiu'. However, there are too few people who call him that, and gradually people have forgotten it.
'Qiu' has the shape of 'fan', and 'fan' means 'rebel'. When I go back this time, I not only have to deal with Yan Shifan, but also the Miao people who want to rebel. "
Princess no
Explanation: "The person who calls Fan can be any tribe in Fan state. Why does it only refer to Miao territory? Is this also due to time and events?"
Xiao Feng nodded: "It is indeed due to time and circumstances, but the word 'fan' originally means 'seeking' and 'field', and 'field' is the root of 'miao'. This matter must be dominated by Miao territory."
Xiao Feng went all the way north, and sure enough, he received the imperial order at the border of Xuzhou. He immediately speeded up and rushed to the capital.
After arriving in the capital, the first thing Xiao Feng did was naturally go to Xiyuan to meet Jiajing. This is also a procedure that every imperial envoy must remember. If he goes home without meeting the emperor, it will be a death penalty!
Yan Song, who had hoped that Xiao Feng would make a mistake in a hurry because of family matters, saw Xiao Feng's carriage heading straight for Xiyuan. He shook his head in disappointment and went home to tell his son.
Yan Shifan endured the pain in his legs and grinned at Yan Song: "Don't worry, father, I have asked Sui to inform Ke Zifan. He will definitely find a way to anger Xiao Feng in the court.
When Miao Jiang uses surrender as a temptation to force Wanzai to punish Xiao Feng, his father will take the opportunity to clean up the mess, killing two birds with one stone. Not only will he achieve great success in negotiating peace, but he will also be able to completely withdraw Xiao Feng from the court! "
Yan Shifan was now much more pragmatic and no longer expected Jiajing to directly defeat Xiao Feng.
He understood clearly that as long as Jiajing still wanted to cultivate immortality, and as long as the halo of Xiao Feng Cangjie's disciple was not broken, Jiajing would not be able to kill Xiao Feng.
Therefore, he settled for the next best thing, just to kick Xiao Feng out of the court completely, so that Yan Dang would have no obstacles. When Yan Dang took complete control of the court as planned, as long as Jiajing died, Yan Dang would be able to ensure that Jing Jing would be defeated. The king ascends the throne!
By then, Xiao Feng will be nothing more than a bereaved dog. How can he be collected?
If you pick him up, isn't it all based on your own happiness? Yan Shifan had already planned hundreds of ways to humiliate and harm Xiao Feng in his mind.
Including but not limited to, ravaging Liu Xueer in front of Xiao Feng, ravaging Qiao Niang in front of Xiao Feng, ravaging Zhang Yunqing in front of Xiao Feng, ravaging in front of Xiao Feng...
Yan Shifan felt a sharp pain in his legs. He looked at his two short legs and suddenly felt very frustrated with the scene he had dreamed of before.
I can only use one posture, and revenge won't be too satisfying...
Xiao Feng was facing the third child at this time, looking at the Miao Jiang memorial handed to him by Jiajing. To put it simply, Miao Jiang made a few demands and a few rewards.
Article 1: The Miao people requested the imperial court to severely punish Hu Zongxian, the censor of Huguang Patrol. This person was arrogant and domineering, discriminated against the people of the Miao people, and wantonly built a separation wall between seedlings and mature people, destroying the unity of the Miao people.
The worst thing is that his hands are very extended, not only intervening in the Miao territory in Huguang area, but also raising the price of tea in the tea-horse trade market, exploiting and plundering the people in Miao territory and Tibetan areas! So damn it!
Second, Miao Jiang requested to add more trade content to the tea-horse trade. The reason is simple. The tea and horse trade passes through the Miao border, but the main source of horses is Tibetan areas. The Miao border does not produce horses, so they have little presence in this trade.
Therefore, Miaojiang requested that the tea-horse trade trade be increased by products including but not limited to top luxury goods such as Paradise Pills and Baihua Xianjiu, which would be traded directly in silver or grain by the Ming Dynasty.
Article 3: Miao Xinjiang requires that the wall separating raw and mature seedlings be completely dismantled and the friendly situation of great unity among the Miao Xinjiang people be restored. At the same time, the imperial court’s restrictions on Miao people’s entry into inland cities were lifted! we do not
If we want to stay in the mountains, we want to go to the city and have some fun!
Article 4: Since the Miao border area is mountainous and densely forested, and the grain output is low, the imperial court is requested to allocate 100,000 dan of grain every year to provide relief to the Miao border area, as a sign of God's great kindness.
In return, the chief chieftain of Miao territory promised that chieftains at all levels, as well as tribal leaders who gave birth to seedlings, would collectively present birthday wishes to express Miao territory's obedience to the leadership of the imperial court.
At the same time, the imperial court was allowed to garrison troops in the Miao territory, and the imperial court was allowed to open a school in the Miao territory to teach the Miao people the Confucian ideology of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.
After Xiao Feng read the memorial, he looked at Jiajing with a smile: "What do the ministers in the court think of this?"
Jiajing closed his eyes slightly: "Only the cabinet and I have read this memorial. It has not yet been sent to the ministers for discussion. I want to wait for you to come back and hear what you mean."
Xiao Feng smiled and folded the memorial: "There are too many conditions and too little reward. This deal is not worth it."
Jiajing was silent for a moment: "The imperial court used troops against Miao territory many times, and the price was heavy, but it was always difficult for Miao territory to be completely transformed into a king.
This time Miao Jiang took the initiative to send someone here. Although it was a bit excessive, he wanted to talk about it. Junior brother, this is an opportunity, don’t let it go lightly. "
Xiao Feng glanced at Jiajing and felt a little happy in his heart. Jiajing has changed.
In the past, Jiajing would not have cared too much about whether such a place far away from the Emperor was under his jurisdiction in name or in fact, because it would have no impact on his career of cultivating immortals.
But now, I wonder if he believed Xiao Feng's words of national destiny blessing, Jiajing began to be more concerned about the Ming Dynasty's territory, and more concerned about actual control.
Because Xiao Feng said that it is useless to belong to you in name. You must truly control it in order to be part of the national destiny. Otherwise
It's still alopecia areata.
"Senior brother, since you specially called me back for this matter, I naturally won't give up easily. I just heard that something happened in my family. I wonder if senior brother knows?"
Okay, here comes the problem. Miao Jiang came to my house and poisoned me. Senior brother, what is your attitude?
Jiajing said calmly: "The girl named Wang Yingxiang has recovered. The second master of the world view is being guarded by the imperial doctor. There is no serious problem for the time being."
Xiao Feng also said calmly: "But I heard that Zhan Feiyun is still being held in prison. I wonder what senior brother plans to do with him?"
Jiajing's tone became as calm as water: "In any case, he openly resisted the decree and forced his way into the imperial prison. He is guilty of two capital crimes. What can I do?"
Xiao Feng's tone was as light as the free soup in a restaurant: "Long live, Zhan Feiyun is guilty of death, I dare not ask Long live for mercy rashly.
I just hope that Long Live was killed for the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, and not for the pressure of Miao Jiang. Otherwise, Miao Jiang will definitely surrender! "
Jiajing was stunned for a moment, faced Xiao Feng's gaze, slowly closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Xiao Feng rushed to Jiajing and cupped his hands: "I have something going on at home, please excuse me first!"
Jiajing nodded, still not opening his eyes, Xiao Feng turned around and left. After a moment, Jiajing spoke calmly.
"Lu Bing, Zhan Feiyun has made meritorious deeds, so don't treat him harshly in prison."
