On the ninth day of the sixth lunar month, at Chen time, the sergeants of the day and night patrols were on duty every ten feet, guarding from the south gate of Yujing City through Zhuque Street, Qilin Street, and Qingxiao Street to the gate of the vassal palace on Langxiao Street. .
There were also Zuo Army sergeants who were responsible for taking Prince Yunhao's body back to Yujing City to guard and clear the way. It was in good order. All the unrelated people who came to see the excitement stood quietly on both sides of the street, not daring to cross the cordon of the sergeants in front.
Because the forum has issued an edict to welcome Prince Yun Hao's body back to the capital today, and anyone who dares to disturb order will be killed without mercy.
Fang Jian and Gu Zhenqing patrolled the broad streets side by side. All the ministers guarding the Yamen came out to take charge of order and etiquette matters. Shang Qing Sanxu even personally came to Zhuque Street, where the South Gate of Yujing is located, to take charge of the affairs.
At this time, Yu Chunshuang stood on the street and waved to Fang Jian. Fang Jian nodded to the sergeants guarding there, and the sergeants immediately let Yu Chunshuang in.
"Young Master," Yu Chunshuang called when he came to Fang Jian.
Fang Jian said to Gu Zhenqing: "Brother Gu, wait a moment."
Gu Zhenqing nodded, and then Fang Jian took Yu Chunshuang to the side and asked, "What's the matter?"
Yu Chunshuang approached Fang Jian and whispered in his left ear. After hearing this, Fang Jian frowned and turned to Yu Chunshuang and asked, "Is this serious?"
Yu Chunshuang nodded and said, "It's absolutely true. My people saw it last night when they were delivering pills in Zongfan's courtyard."
When Fang Jian heard this, he glanced around. All the people who came to greet the body of Prince Yunhao were here. He asked Yu Chengshuang, "Do you think she is among these people?"
Yu Chengshuang turned his head and glanced at the crowd around him, and finally landed on Fangyue, who was dressed in plain clothes. At this time, Fangyue had a cold temperament, standing quietly in the crowd in plain clothes, with no expression on her face.
"That's her." Yu Chun stared at Fangyue and said, then quickly looked away.
Fang Jian nodded slightly and said: "I know, those people under you are very useful. You must maintain them well. If there is no momentum, just tell me."
Yu Chun responded respectfully: "Yes."
Then Yu Chunshuang turned around and left, returning to the Night Patrol Mansion, while Fang Jian joined Gu Zhenqing to continue patrolling.
After a stick of incense, all the ministers and ministers of the Great Court came to the south gate of Zhuque Street. They were also ordered to receive the body of Crown Prince Yunhao.
There are four gates in Yujing City, the south gate 'Zhuque Gate' on Zhuque Street, the north gate 'Xuanwu Gate' on Xuanwu Street, the west gate 'Baihu Gate' on Baihu Street, and the east gate 'Qinglong Gate' on Qinglong Street.
These four streets together constitute the outermost "Sixth Ring City" of Yujing City, and further inside is the "Kilin Street" in the fifth ring area. Inward from Qilin Street are "Tianyuan Street" and "Tianyuan Street" which together form the fourth ring area. Qingxiao Street'.
Further inside the fourth ring is 'Danxiao Street' in the third ring area, then 'Langxiao Street' in the second ring area, and finally 'Jingxiao Street' in the first ring area.
'Tianjie' is located in the center of Jingxiao Street and is the absolute central area.
Finally, three Taoist priests, Taoist Taihuang of Tingliu Division, Taoist Taixiao of Fang Yusi, and Taoist Taiyin of General Si, came to greet them on behalf of Daoting and the forum in accordance with the decree of the five assistants of the Taiyuan. Prince Yunhao's body was brought to Beijing.
The three Taoists came by Luan Yu. Because their status was higher than that of Prince Yunhao, they did not have to come on foot like the ministers.
After the three Taoists arrived, Taixiao Taoist ordered his attendants to call Fang Jian to Luan Yu, "I heard that the special envoy of Qianzhao Taoist Kingdom redeemed Yao Yao from you?"
Fang Jian was stunned for a moment when he heard this and said, "Who said that?"
Taixiao Taoist Master smiled and said: "Since I know this, naturally someone with knowledge of the matter will tell me. Just tell me if you have any problem."
"There is absolutely no such thing. Yao Yao was transferred to the Court of Justice through normal procedures. I still have the acceptance documents from the Court of Justice here." Fang Jian said.
Taixiao Dao Zun said: "You are indeed a person who has served as the Five Emperors of Heaven. He does everything flawlessly. I am just curious, how much power have you gained from Qianzhao Dao Kingdom? I remember that the last time I listed the legacy, the minister wanted to redeem his son. , it is said that it cost at least one million Chen Dashi, right?”
"Don't spread rumors if you don't believe them." Fang Jian said, "Absolute rumors!"
Taoist Taixiao sighed and said: "Fang Jian, how can you say that your mother, Taoist Taiyuan, and I are also close friends? You don't have to hide this kind of thing from me."
Fang Jian said: "How dare you hide it? There is indeed no such thing."
Taoist Master Taixiao snorted coldly and said: "It's really dishonest. I know very clearly about the situation of 1.3 million dusts in Lieyi, and all of you Taoist Masters also know it. You can't even try to hide it from me."
"." Fang Jian said helplessly: "Since Taoist Master Taixiao already knows, why do you still ask me?"
Taixiao Taoist Master said: "I can't figure out why you make so much money so quickly, easily making over a million. As a great master of the Qing Dynasty, no matter how hard I work, I can only make nearly a million in a year. The daily expenses, the consumption of training and fighting, in the end, only about 100,000 is left, and sometimes there is even less than 100,000 left."
Fang Jian said: "If the great masters of the First Pure Realm and Second Pure Realm dare to let go of their shame, they can easily earn millions of dust a year."
Hearing this, Taoist Master Taixiao said disdainfully: "I don't understand what you are saying, but when you reach this realm, it is no longer about whether you can put down your shame. Once you enter the upper realm, everything you do will have its consequences." Many pairs of eyes are watching you."
Fang Jian said: "Don't the people below make contributions?"
Taoist Taixiao sighed again and said: "There are tributes, but how much can the people below contribute? Besides, we only offer tributes once or twice a year. How much can we get?"
Fang Jian was a little curious when he heard this and said, "Taoist Master Taixiao, why are you telling this official?"
Taixiao Taoist Master said: "You finally asked this sentence. In fact, there is no reason. I recently got an opportunity, but this opportunity requires at least two million dusts to open. I am still short of 530,000 dusts." general trend"
Upon hearing this, Fang Jian directly raised his hands and said, "I'll take my leave." After saying that, he turned around and left.
"Come back!" Taoist Taixiao shouted softly, and then he saw a mysterious light emerging from Fang Jian's feet. Fang Jian didn't even have time to react, and was trapped into Taoist Taixiao's Luan Yu by this mysterious light.
Yuexi was startled when he saw this scene from a distance. He raised the gun in his hand and was about to go over, but Fazhen beside him immediately stopped him, "What are you doing?"
Yue Xi pointed at Taixiao Taoist Luan Yu and said, "Didn't you see that the school captain was taken in by Taixiao Taoist?"
Fazhen said: "Don't worry, Taixiao Taoist Master is a good friend of the school captain's mother and will not harm the school captain. Besides, look at the curtains of the Luan Yu. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if you saw something you shouldn't see in the past? "
Yue Xi was shocked when he heard the words. He looked at the Luan Yu with a horrified expression and said, "Taixiao Taoist Master detained the school captain into the Luan Yu. He must have taken a fancy to the handsome appearance of my school captain."
Hearing this, Fazhen stood on tiptoes and put up a pergola with his hands to look at Taixiao Dao Zun's Luan Yu.
At the same time, inside Taixiao Taoist Luan Yu, Fang Jian only smelled a gust of fragrance. When he saw it, he had already appeared in front of Taixiao Taoist, and his body was still unable to move.
Although Hongmeng Editor told him that he could use 'Dao·Law' to resolve Taixiao Taoist's imprisonment, Fang Jian did not do so. It is not good to expose his powerful strength too early.
"This Taixiao Dao Zun, have you forgotten the Great Heavenly Zun?" Fang Jian asked with an unnatural look on his face.
Taoist Taixiao smiled lightly and said, "How could I forget my own husband? Why do you still want to take advantage of me?"
Fang Jian said: "In the current situation, I'm afraid the official wants to take advantage of you, Taoist Taixiao, right?"
Taixiao Taoist Master said calmly: "Stop talking nonsense and lend me the power of Six Hundred Thousand Chens."
"No." Fang Jian said.
"I will pay you back within three years." Taixiao Dao Zun said: "For the sake of your mother, help me once."
Fang Jian said: "Really not."
Taoist Master Taixiao stared at Fang Jian, then sighed deeply and said: "Okay, you lend me the power of 600,000 Chens, and I promise you a condition."
Fang Jian suddenly smiled and said: "Ah, I suddenly remembered that there seems to be a big trend of 600,000 Chen."
"You!!!" Taixiao Dao Zun glared angrily, "You really have no noble bearing and are simply obsessed with profit."
Fang Jian smiled and said: "Tao Zun Taixiao, I am not a child, and you are not a child either. Adults have to care about interests."
"Okay." Tao Zun Taixiao said, "What are your conditions?"
Fang Jian said: "I haven't thought about it yet."
"You!" Seeing that Taixiao Dao Zun was about to get angry again, Fang Jian said immediately: "But I can lend you the general trend first, and then I will talk about it when I think of it."
Taoist Taixiao then put away her sullen expression. She waved her hand to remove the restraints on Fang Jian. Fang Jian immediately took out the 600,000 Chen Dynasty and sent it to Taoist Taixiao.
Taixiao Taoist Master glanced at Fang Jian, then waved his hand to collect the six hundred thousand dust into the soul, and then said to Fang Jian: "Okay, you can go."
"Why don't you even say thank you?" Fang Jian stood up and said.
Taixiao Taoist Master glared, "I'll give you a condition in exchange for borrowing it from me, why should you say thank you?"
"Okay, okay." Fang Jian cupped his hands, then quickly turned around and flew out of Luan Yu. His face was full of heartache. The one million Chen Dazhi that he just got was gone in the blink of an eye, and another six hundred thousand was gone. Although it was borrowed, when Not sure yet.
Yue Xi in the distance saw Fang Jian walking out of Luan Yu, and immediately said: "Look, the captain's face has become so bad. He was fine just now, wow, Taoist Taixiao is a bit fierce!"
Fazhen muttered: "It's just a little too fast."
"Hehe." Yuexi looked towards Fazhen, and the two of them laughed obscenely at the same time.
"Why are you two laughing so hard? Why are you so wretched?" Fang Jian's voice came from the front. Fazhen and Yue Xi were startled, and they quickly straightened up and looked solemn.
"Captain, it's nothing. I was telling Mr. Yuexi that I saw two mandarin ducks fighting yesterday." Fazhen said.
Fang Jian had no doubts and just said: "Now is not the time for small talk. Go on inspection quickly. We must not make any mistakes today."
"Yes!" The two of them responded loudly, then turned and left together.
An hour after the arrival of the three Taoists, Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace slowly entered the Suzaku Gate under the escort of 10,000 Daoting left army sergeants.
In front of Zi Palace, there is a chariot pulled by six adult golden unicorns. There are three people standing in the car. These three people all wear Shangqing seals on their waists. They are Zuo Jun, one of the six armies of Daoting. of three coaches.
The Shangqing at the front is Yi Zhen, the general of the left army, the Shangqing at the rear left is Sima Chen Yu of the left, and the Shangqing at the rear right is Yuanxiang, the Sima of the right.
On both sides and behind the three commanders, there were 10,000 soldiers of the left army, holding flags and fighting. The whole army was wrapped in plain clothes, and the atmosphere was solemn and solemn. They escorted Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace all the way into the Xuanwu Gate.
As the huge team escorting Crown Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace entered the Xuanwu Gate, General Yi Zhen of the Left Army immediately waved his command flag, and the team instantly stopped in place.
Afterwards, the three generals Yizhen, left Sima Chen Yu, and right Sima Yuanhe stepped out of the chariot and came to the three Taoist monks Luan Yu to pay homage: "I would like to inform the three Taoist monks that the left army general Yizhen is here to discuss the matter." It is the decree of Taifa to welcome the return of Zi Gong, the Crown Prince Yunhao of the Pure Good Taoist Kingdom, and to ask the three Taoist Masters to issue an edict."
Immediately afterwards, the three Taoists walked out of Luanyu, and then the Taihuang Taoist of the Tinglu Division announced the decree of the forum. The first half of the decree was about mourning the crown prince Yunhao, and the second half was about Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace and the funeral ceremony. s arrangement.
After reading out the edict, Tai Huang Tao Zun said to Yizhen and the others: "Immediately send Crown Prince Yunhao Zi Palace to the Jingshan Taoist Palace in the Zongfan Courtyard to be enshrined."
Yizhen and the others bowed and said, "I will obey the law."
When Yizhen and the others returned to the chariot, as the young ministers from the garrison yamen moved out of the way, the fifteen young ministers of the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom and all the ministers and state officials came forward in tears. They were all dressed in plain clothes. First, he kowtowed and worshiped in front of Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace. Then he walked to both sides of the Zi Palace and stretched out his hands to support the tall and gorgeous Zi Palace.
Fangyue Shangqing, the special envoy of the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom, went to the Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace at the end to kowtow and salute, and then stood indifferently in front of the Zi Palace and walked in front of the Zi Palace.
绋, a big rope, a white ribbon tied with a seal, is a big rope for pulling the coffin. 'Zhixi' means holding a big rope in front to pull the coffin.
Then white petals began to fall on both sides of the street, and bursts of sad music resounded through Zhuque Street. In this solemn environment, the three Taoists walked at the front, followed closely by the ministers and the three commanders of the Zuo Army. The people of Shandao Kingdom and Prince Yunhao's son, Zi Gong, were in the middle, while the young ministers followed the team behind Zi Gong and moved forward slowly.
Half an hour later, the slow procession passed through four streets and finally sent Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace into the palace belonging to the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom of Zongfanyuan. The coffin was placed in the main hall.
The people who presided over the entire ceremony were the five pastors of Honglutai and Fangyue Shangqing, the special envoy of the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom. As the special envoy of the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom, Fangyue Shangqing can naturally receive all the guests in Yujing City on behalf of the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom. Condolences and your noble condolences.
But Fangyue Shangqing was obviously not thinking about this matter. An hour later, he saw that all the nobles in Yujing City had arrived, and an attendant who didn't know where he came from quietly came to Prince Yunhao's parking lot. Ling said something to Fangyue Shangqing in the main hall. Fangyue Shangqing first blushed and then nodded.
Soon, Lord Fangyue greeted the fifteen Jingshan Taoist young ministers, then stood up and left.
Fang Jian's face darkened when he saw this scene, and he sighed in his heart, Fangyue is the high minister of Jingshan Taoist Kingdom, and she is also one of the top nobles in Daoting. It can be seen from her behavior that these nobles in Daoting are How far has it fallen.
Fang Jian stepped forward and came to the Zi Palace of Prince Yunhao. Like those who came to express condolences, he bent down and stamped his feet, beating his chest and crying three times, then put down the white silk ribbon and bowed his head towards Zi Palace. He bowed three times, then accepted the thanks from the young ministers and ministers of Jingshan Tao Kingdom, and then returned to Zi Palace.
After retreating to the crowd, Fang Jian's expression immediately became cold. The three Taoists stood at the top of the hall, the ministers stood on both sides of the hall, and the young ministers stood in front of the hall, bowing and solemnly.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a rush of footsteps in the solemn and silent hall, and then a national warrior from the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom rushed forward and angrily looked at the young ministers kneeling on both sides of Prince Yunhao's Zi Palace. After hearing what was said, the young ministers were first shocked, then startled, then they raised their heads and looked around, and finally stood up angrily.
After a moment, dozens of Jingshan Taoist ministers also stood up angrily. They were seen offering magic weapons. A Jingshan Taoist minister's eyes were red and his face was full of anger. "The prince is in trouble, the country is in mourning, and she is As the supreme minister of the country, how dare you do such evil deeds in the place where the prince's son Zi Palace rests? Gentlemen, please leave such a silverfish in the world! It will only harm the country! Even if this thief is the supreme minister, we can do it today. Kill him!"
After saying that, the fifteen young ministers held magic weapons and fiercely rushed out of the hall with dozens of ministers, and rushed straight towards the courtyard behind the hall under everyone's shocked eyes.
"what happened?"
"What happened?"
Everyone in the hall was confused and talking, but Fang Jian said loudly and casually: "Something must have happened in the backyard. I'll go take a look."
After saying that, Fang Jian also walked out of the hall towards the backyard. The three Taoists looked at each other in astonishment, and then turned into a ray of light and flew out of the hall towards the backyard.
All the ministers who came to express their condolences in the main hall saw that the three Taoist masters had gone, so they also followed them. Before leaving, they ordered the young ministers in the hall to stay here and take care of Zi Palace, which immediately made those who were also very curious. The young ministers were itching their teeth, but they did not dare to disobey, so they could only suppress their curiosity and stay in the palace to look after Zi Gong.
At the same time, Fangyue went to the Qing's dormitory in the backyard. Fifteen young ministers and dozens of ministers from the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom rushed outside the dormitory with great anger. Sure enough, they heard a blood-spraying roar coming from the dormitory. sound.
The voices belonged to a man and a woman. The man's voice was unfamiliar, but the woman's voice was none other than Fangyue Shangqing.
Immediately afterwards, Fangyue Shangqing's charming voice came from the dormitory: "Wait a minute, there seems to be something moving outside."
Then came the panting man's voice: "Don't be afraid, I have set up a barrier with fifty thousand dusts in this dormitory, so no one outside can find it."
"Well, that's good." Fangyue Shangqing responded softly.
At this time, the man said again: "The body of your Prince of Jingshan Dao Kingdom is parked in the main hall in front of you, but here I am playing with their minister, hahaha!"
"You are bad."
At this moment, the three Taoists and many ministers who came behind also heard this conversation. For a moment, the courtyard outside the dormitory was silent, and you could hear a needle drop. Everyone was shocked and looked at each other.
But the fifteen Jingshan Taoist young ministers and ministers outside the dormitory could no longer listen. They were so angry that they stepped forward and kicked open the palace door, roaring: "Bitch! You are worthy of serving the country." Sir!"
"ah!!!"
A burst of screams full of horror, panic, and shame suddenly came from the dormitory. As the door of the palace was kicked open, an unbearable scene that was impossible to look at suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Fangyue Shangqing's hair was disheveled, and her body was completely exposed to the air. She quickly stood up from Yao Yao, and with a flash of fairy light on her body, she used magic power to conjure a set of robes and put them on.
Yao Yao was also horrified. He endured the severe pain of the pipa bone wounds on his shoulders and got up. Then he said in a confused and horrified tone: "Where is my barrier?!"
Hearing this, Fang Jian outside smiled coldly.
At this moment, everyone in the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom had already rushed forward and launched an offensive against Fangyue Shangqing and Yao Yao who were on the jade couch. Faced with the siege of dozens of Hunyuan Wuji Luo Jinxian, Fangyue Shangqing and Yao Yao simply couldn't He had no strength to fight back, and was soon severely wounded and captured by a group of young ministers and ministers from the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom.
Fangyue Shangqing was caught and thrown directly to the ground. She spat out a gush of blood. Then she raised her head and saw many Taoist ministers and three Taoists around her. She collapsed on the ground and looked like death in an instant. grey.
"Yao Yao!!!"
And when everyone in the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom saw that this man was actually Yao Yao, their eyes almost burst out of their sockets.
