Northern Zhou Dynasty, the first year of Tiansheng.

Shangjing, southern suburbs altar.

It is the ninth month of the golden autumn. The heat of summer has quietly faded away, and the coolness has gradually arisen. The autumn wind blows from the plains, accompanied by the strong sound of the wind, passing over the solemn Zhou Dynasty in Beijing.

Cold and heat alternate year after year, and spring passes and autumn comes every year. Wind and rain come from illusion, and clouds and mist come from mist.

Time is like a river. Nowadays, Dingding of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been nearly a century old. After the hard work of three generations of emperors, Emperor Wen, Emperor Jing, and Emperor Xuan, and after decades of conquests in the Central Plains, it finally wiped out the heroes, took control of the Central Plains, and became a veritable lord of the world. , ended nearly five hundred years of chaos in Kyushu in one fell swoop, with a territory of thousands of miles and millions of armored men.

Thinking back to the past, in the last years of Beiyu, Emperor Ai, Gongsun Mingyue, was debauched and tyrannical. He carried out large-scale construction projects, raped sycophants and virtuous ministers in distant places. As a result, the people of the Central Plains were in dire straits and mourned everywhere. The feudal towns all over the country held high the banner of righteousness and resisted the tyranny of Beiyu.

In these troubled times, Zhou Guogong Xiao Shiyuan, who had always had great ambitions to occupy the three states of Gan, Yong and Liang, raised his arms and shouted, leading one hundred thousand men of the Xiao family to raise troops in Ganzhou, riding horses and whips, and entered the pass all the way. After several years of bloody battles, , and finally overthrew the rule of Beiyu, beheaded Gongsun Mingyue, Emperor Ai, and led his army to Shangjing.

Later, Xiao Shiyuan forced the Beiyu court to issue an edict, promoted him to the king, and called himself Grand Sima, Grand General, Grand Prime Minister, Taiwei, Sikong, Grand Prime Minister, False Huang Yue, and Prime Minister. The dynasty did not follow, and the praises and worships were unknown. The Wude Hall was used as the prime minister's residence, and ten counties were added to benefit the Zhou Dynasty. Ye City was used as the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, and the Emperor's Banner was built to serve as a police station when going out.

The following year, Xiao Shiyuan accepted the support of hundreds of officials, ascended the throne as emperor, established the country as "Zhou", made Beijing the capital, changed Yecheng to Yanjing, established the Great Zhou Dynasty, known as "Northern Zhou" in the world, and was the "Northern Zhou Wen Emperor".

Since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, three generations of emperors, from Emperor Wen to Emperor Xuan, have been working hard to quell the troubled times and eliminate feudal vassals, thus beginning the fifty-four-year-long founding war of the Central Plains with all the heroes of the world:

In the fourth year of the emperor's reign, Xi Yan troops invaded Longyou, and the three counties fell into the enemy's hands. Emperor Wen led an army of 200,000 to march westward to defend against the enemy, and fought fiercely with the Yan army at Baima Pass. Nuan, then took advantage of the victory to attack and regain the three counties. Xiyan returned with a great defeat.

In the eighth year of the emperor's reign, Emperor Wen ordered his third son, King Zhao Xiaoye, to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses to attack the Xiyan Kingdom from Tianshui. They defeated the three cities of Guzang, Xiping, and Hechi, captured and killed more than 100,000 Yan troops, and defeated Xiyan. Elite.

In the eleventh year of the emperor's reign, Southern Chu raised 300,000 troops, with Wang Yuanying, the general of Zhuguo, as the commander, and invaded Shouchun, an important town in the southern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty. In March, Emperor Wen ordered Li Yunchao, the general of the southern Chu army, to lead 100,000 troops to attack. The two armies There was a fierce battle at Fuzhou Mountain. The Northern Zhou army attacked like a dragon and penetrated the enemy's formation. The Southern Chu was defeated. Twenty-three out of ten were killed. Countless people died after falling into the mountain stream, and more than half of the soldiers were lost.

In the fifteenth year of the emperor's reign, Emperor Wen appointed King Wei Xiao Lin and King Xiao Yun of Shu as the left and right marshals, and Han Gong Li Yunchao and Xinguo Gong Pang Yu as the left and right deputy marshals. He commanded 200,000 cavalry and went north to expedition to Rouran. The army set out from the fortress, east to west. Five thousand miles across and three thousand miles deep from north to south, they pursued all the way to Black Mountain, defeated the main force of Rouran, and captured Dragon City.

In the 17th year of the emperor's reign, Southern Chu invaded the territory again, and troops came to Suiyang. Emperor Wen, despite being ill, led an army of 150,000 to the south. The Zhou army defeated most of the elite troops of Southern Chu in three battles, and took advantage of the situation to counterattack and invade the territory of Southern Chu. , captured the six counties of Jingxiang and defeated Fancheng, shocking Danyang, the capital of Southern Chu; in March, the battle against Chu was won, and the Zhou army returned. When they arrived at Fenyang Palace, Emperor Wen's condition worsened and he died in the Southern Expedition. , aged seventy-seven, ordered the crown prince Xiao Li to ascend the throne and became the "Jingdi of the Northern Zhou Dynasty".

In the second year of Kaiping, Xiyan took advantage of the newly established Emperor Jing to unite with the Qiang and Hu and raised 160,000 troops to harass the Ganliang area. The war broke out in the northwest. In the same month, Emperor Jing issued an edict and ordered veteran general Li Yunchao to take command and lead seven armies to attack the Yan-Qiang coalition. In the Battle of Gaolan Mountain, Li Yunchao defeated the enemy in three battles, defeated Xi Yan's conspiracy in one fell swoop, beheaded 50,000 people and captured 30,000 people.

In the third year of Kaiping, Emperor Jing ordered Li Yunchao to lead the army again to attack Hexi. Under the leadership of Li Yunchao, the Northern Zhou army was unstoppable. In just one month, the Qiang and Hu tribes were wiped out. At this point, the land west of Hexi was included in the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which relieved the Northern Zhou Dynasty from worries about using troops from the Western Yan Dynasty.

In the sixth year of Kaiping, Southern Chu made a comeback and attempted to recapture the six counties of Xiangfan. Liang Shiyan, the general of Zhennan in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, saw through Chu's intentions, so he used Xiangyang and Fancheng as bait to attract the main force of the Chu army here, while he himself ambushed the Chu army with a large number of elite troops. From behind, he took advantage of his unpreparedness to launch a surprise attack, defeating the Southern Chu at Xiangfan, and sending him home in defeat...

In the following decades, Western Yan and Southern Chu suffered heavy losses, their vitality was severely damaged, and they were no longer able to invade the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, the Northern Zhou Dynasty turned from defense to offense, constantly sending large armies to cross-border raids, encroaching on the territories of Yan and Chu, causing Xi Yan to , Southern Chu's national power declined, and it could only struggle to the death.

During the twenty-two years of Emperor Jing's reign, the foreign strategy he determined could be summed up in four words: "Weak Yan to attack Chu." But the only regret is that Emperor Zhongjing was never able to destroy his country.

After Emperor Xuan Xiao Longxian came to the throne, the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty became increasingly stronger. The territory of the empire was more than three times larger than when Emperor Wen founded the country. The army was well-equipped and the country was rich and the people were strong. It also had a brave and capable army that was invincible in Yunei. The Iron Army of the Great Zhou Dynasty; therefore, the time is ripe to start a war to destroy the country.

In the tenth year of Yongxing, the army of the Northern Zhou Dynasty marched all the way westward and was invincible. They even conquered Huguan, Xiurong, Pingcheng, Wuchuan and other places, and invaded the eldest son of the capital of Xiyan. The royal family of Yan State surrendered in surrender, and Xiyan was destroyed.

Two years later, in the 13th year of Yongxing, Xiao Changling, the king of Qin in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, personally led an army of 300,000, and drove southward, sweeping across the south of the Yangtze River. In the first battle of Gongzhufen, the second battle of Gaoyou, and the third battle of Yongcheng, with a fierce offensive, 400,000 people were wiped out. The army of Southern Chu defeated Duan Wenzhen, the first general of Chu State, and captured Danyang. The Chu Emperor Sima You was beheaded, and Southern Chu was annihilated.

With the successive destruction of Xi Yan and Southern Chu, the Great Zhou Dynasty lasted fifty-four years, finally put an end to the war, unified the world, and officially took control of the Central Plains. It ended five hundred years of disintegration and chaos, and stood in the center of Kyushu.

Since then, there has been no war in the world, the four seas have become one, and the land of nine states has become the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.



The notes of golden autumn embody the sound of hunting wind, mixed with a hint of coolness.

A solemn and solemn atmosphere enveloped the capital, casting a golden light and casting a series of strange shadows, looming, seemingly there or not.

In the southern suburbs, in front of the Temple of Heaven.

A tall altar was built on the wide square, like a rolling mountain, gradually revealing the outline of the hills.

The high platform is as majestic as a mountain.

In front of the stage, there are sacrifices such as cattle, sheep, jade and Gui. According to the ancient sacrificial rituals, they are all sacrificed with whole cows, whole pigs, and whole sheep as the "Three Animals Tailao".

The huge firewood pile, located in the center of the altar, has been erected, like the spire of a Buddhist temple, with layers upon layers.

The firewood pile ignited, and thick black smoke rose into the sky, floating above the altar, and gradually broke through the clouds until the smoke disappeared.

The flames are blazing, and the fire is soaring into the sky.

The solemn yellow bell of Dalu resounded sonorously. Xiao Changyao, the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was dressed in imperial robes, wearing a gun mian, twelve white beads, a red ribbon and a gold belt. "With a sword", holding a five-color jade gui in his hand, with an expression of calmness and dignity, he climbed up to the high platform to worship the sky step by step.

Below the altar, there is a team of nearly a thousand people composed of civil and military officials, clan kings, princes, ministers, and chiefs of the Western Regions. They are divided into several square formations and stand in awe with them.

Today is the enthronement ceremony of the new king. Therefore, the thousands of people present, including civil servants, military generals, and clan ministers, are all wearing Yuanfu with charcoal black background and official patterns. Civil servants are wearing beams and crowns, and military ministers are wearing feather buns.

At this moment, the huge altar in the southern suburbs was silent and majestic, as if the ice that had been covered in dust for hundreds of years had solidified in an instant.

All the ministers in the audience stood in order, and their eyes almost unanimously turned to the high platform, staring at the thirty-one-year-old new emperor.

After boarding the altar, Xiao Changyao, who was dressed in uniform, under the guidance of the high priest, threw the five-color jade gui in his hand into the fire and slowly burned it to ashes to worship heaven and earth, mountains, rivers, Lakes and seas.

Then, Xiao Changyao raised his head slightly, saluted solemnly while facing the Sky Vault Manor, and loudly offered his condolences. His voice was like a surging ocean tide, reverberating in the surrounding suburbs of Beijing and pouring into everyone's ears.

"The emperor's minister Yao dared to use Xuanmu to tell the emperor and the empress: The world of the Great Zhou Dynasty has countless borders, and the only one who shines is Pi's virtue, but he is afraid of the heavenly throne. When asking the common people, as well as the emperor and the emperor, Xian said that the destiny of heaven must be answered. The ancestral inheritance cannot be replaced for a long time, and the country cannot be left without an owner. We must lead the way and look forward to the glory of one person. We are afraid of the power of the emperor and heaven, and we are afraid that the great Zhou Dynasty will be lost to the earth. I would like to choose the first day to go to the altar with hundreds of officials to receive the emperor's seal. Shou, change it to Yuan Tiansheng, repair the burnt body, and report it to the great god, but the great god still enjoys eternal good fortune, and he will be in the great Zhou Dynasty, and he will live forever in the world."

Immediately, all the ministers bowed their heads and knelt down, shouting "Long Live the Mountain" in unison, one after another.

"His Majesty the Emperor will last forever!"

Amidst the shouts of the ministers, Xiao Changyao remained calm and turned around slowly, holding the Lulu Sword under his waist, looking down at him with his cold eyes that contained countless piercing sword lights. Looking at the rolling mountains in front of him, he glanced at the officials and ministers who were paying homage to him, and he felt a surge of heroic spirit in his heart.

At this moment, he finally stood in the center of the world and finally became the emperor of Zhou Dynasty.

For a moment, Xiao Changyao narrowed his eyebrows, stared at the solemn officials, and spoke solemnly.

"Taizu raised his troops and raised the Yi division to suppress the riots. So far, for fifty-six years, he has been invincible and fought all battles. Only then can we have the great Zhou Dynasty. I, following the legacy of the late emperor, inherit the great rule, and I shall rule the world together with you. , make me great Zhou!"

"Long live, long live, long live -" the voices of the ministers rose up again.

The wind blew quietly, blowing the row of white jade beads on the emperor's crown, swaying back and forth.

On the towering high platform, the young new king stood proudly, looking at the north from a distance, with a trace of reluctance and nostalgia in his eyes.

At this moment, on the altar in the southern suburbs of Beijing, there are many soldiers and ministers gathered, all congratulating the new emperor on his enthronement. However, among the splendid people in the audience, there is only one missing person. The famous one, known as the "Great Zhou Dynasty" His Highness the King of Qin, known as the God of War.

After his sadness dissipated, Xiao Changyao regained his imperial dignity, his eyes were full of coldness, and he said something coldly.

"Publish my decree, announce it to the world, and order the King of Qin to return to Beijing as soon as possible."

"Here!" The waiter didn't dare to say anything, so he could only answer incessantly.

As soon as the emperor said this, the civil and military ministers looked at each other in horror and shock. Your Majesty has just ascended the throne and summoned the King of Qin to the capital. Is this to...

No, they didn't dare to continue thinking about it. The emperor's mind was always unpredictable.

The wind and rain will rise suddenly.



Northern border, Jinyang.

The desert is windy and sandy, and the west wind is blowing.

Here, surrounded by mountains and thousands of miles of fertile fields, with three rivers controlling the river, the mountains and rivers inside and outside can be seen at a glance and are magnificent.

At the end of the plain, between two mountains, a majestic, vast and majestic city stands between the sky and the earth, showing an outline like a thousand-mile mountain. The cool wind blows in and passes through every brick of the city. One watt.

Looking from afar, in the depths of the Gobi desert, the majestic city of Jinyang, which is about tens of feet high and built of hard and solidified rammed earth, bricks and stones, stands unmoving and stands proudly in the northern border.

It seems that this northern border city, which carries the countless pride and glory of the Zhou Dynasty, is facing the scenery of the north, telling the story of hundreds of years of glory and vicissitudes...

Jinyang City is located on the main road of seven counties, Yunzhou Road and Bingzhou Road. It is at the intersection of Qinglin, Bowang and Yandang Mountains. It is stationed with 400,000 Jingbei Army officers and soldiers. It is the defense of the northern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty. In this important military town, one man is in charge of the pass and ten thousand men are not allowed to open it.

It can be said that for decades, Jinyang, a majestic border town, went through the wind and frost day after day and year after year, hanging alone on the northern frontier of the Great Zhou Empire.

Since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, Jinyang has always been a heroic castle that fascinated countless men of the Zhou Dynasty and made countless prairie men fall into the sand.

Every time, when the main force of cavalry from Rouran in the north moves south in large numbers to invade the hinterland of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Jinyang City can always be the "first choice" to restrain Rouran's offensive, resist the penetration of grassland forces into the Central Plains, and defeat the powerful enemy. Yixiongguan".

If Rouran's cavalry wants to invade across the border, Jinyang is the only way to go and will bear the brunt. It can even be said that Jinyang can be called the northern gateway of the Zhou Dynasty, guarding the empire's thousands-mile northern frontier.

It is precisely because Jinyang's strategic location is so important. Therefore, as early as the period of Emperor Xuan, Xiao Changling, the king of Qin, who was the second son of Emperor Xuan, used the chief minister, the general, the Taiwei, the Shangzhu Kingdom, and the army of the world. As a marshal and the commander-in-chief of all Chinese and foreign military forces, he is also the general marshal of the northern border. He commands 400,000 Jingbei troops and is based in Jinyang. He is in charge of military affairs in the northern border and intimidates Rouran.

Outside the city, the Jingbei Army camp.

The twenty-mile Chinese military company camp is closely connected and built according to the mountains. With its backing to the peaks, it occupies a commanding position in the wilderness on the outskirts of the city.

Looking up along the flanks of Jinyang City, we can only see countless majestic and spacious Chinese military camps built on the wilderness in the distance, like long dragons, stretching endlessly, connected to each other, and distributed in the open wasteland. The area is abrupt and gloomy.

Looking inside and outside the main camp, each main camp has sixteen rows of shogunate offices, with about forty tents in each row. In the gaps in the corridors, flags are hung high, and there is a team of elite soldiers closely guarding them.

In front of the gate of the camp, there are many enemy towers, including deer gates, horse guns, trenches, mud pits, watchtowers and other military facilities. There are also several teams of black-armored soldiers, armed with long guns, patrolling outside the gate of the camp.

This is the main camp of the Chinese army, with only 20,000 soldiers, 10,000 infantry, and 10,000 cavalry; but the entire Jingbei Army has a total of 400,000 elite troops guarding the northern border. Of course, they cannot be crowded together, but are distributed throughout the northern border. The county forms a star-like situation towards Jinyang.

The huge Chinese military camp was lined with military tents and shogunate offices. Flags of various colors were spread inside and outside the military camp, swept by the wind.

"kill!"

"kill!"

At that moment, a cry of killing resounded in the camp; the sound of gold and iron intersecting, the clanking of iron hooves, and the roar of war horses blended together.

The outer area of ​​Jinyang, within twenty miles, is under strict security and control. Twenty thousand Jingbei Army officers and soldiers have camped here and are training diligently.

Inside the camp, the sound of killing was loud.

Weapons, armor, and horseshoes.

In the spacious military camp, from time to time, dozens of black-armored cavalry, wearing helmets and armor, carrying bows and arrows, galloped back and forth, shuttling between the camps, leaving behind large areas of the sound of horse hooves.

In the sky, the sun dimmed slightly, mixed with a cool autumn feeling.

In the howling wind, a fluttering silver dragon flag, the "Silver Dragon King Flag" - a thick scarlet "Xiao" character with a large iron hook and a silver hook, is eye-catching, printed in the middle of the king's flag.

Looking up again, all I could see in the distance was smoke and dust billowing into the sky, and the clanging sound of golden swords.

Outside the Chinese military tent.

The bleak autumn wind made the curtains of the big tent flutter; the high-hanging "Xiao" king flag danced up and down, as if to stimulate the high fighting spirit of the soldiers.

On the general stand outside the tent, stood a brave and upright young commander, who was exceptionally bright and dazzling. His whole body exuded natural aloofness, and the king's killing intent shone deep in his eyes. He was dressed in white clothes and covered with silver armor. , wearing a pair of Feiyun combat boots, like a snow eagle spreading its wings in the wind, showing the awe-inspiring style of a generation of heroes.

He was dressed in white clothes and armor, his facial muscles were tight, and his expression was serious. His eyes covered with frost seemed to hide two ice lakes. They had been silent for thousands of years, and there was no trace of joy, anger, sorrow, or joy.

The fierce wind was like a sharp knife, cutting into his resolute and cold face, hitting his bright and clear armor, reflecting a dazzling cold light.

He was born into a noble family, and was the son of Emperor Taizong and Empress Zhang Xian. He was the proud son of heaven who shone brightly in the capital city.

He joined the army at a young age, was crowned king despite being weak, and became a man of his own at the age of fifteen. He used extraordinary tactics and tactics, chased the enemy for three thousand miles with light cavalry, and gained a reputation in a foreign land in one battle.

He crossed the mountain, raised his whip and fought outside the fortress for seventeen years. At the age of sixteen, he became the general of Zhenbei, and at the age of seventeen, he became the general of hussars. At the age of twenty, he was already the commander of the three armies and the general. At the age of twenty-three, he led the world's military forces, was the commander-in-chief of all domestic and foreign military forces, and became the military commander of the Shangzhu Kingdom with 400,000 troops in Jingbei.

He was a man of scheming and good at fighting, and he used his troops like a god. He had dominated the world for more than ten years, and he conquered all his conquests without losing a single one. Just talking and laughing, he had his boats and oars reduced to ashes.

He has great ambitions and unparalleled martial arts, and takes it as his own duty to restore the world. He has one person, one horse, one sword and one halberd, and rides the horse to break the formation and protect the people of the world.

It was he who led the Jingbei men across the northern border of the Great Wall, guarding the country's gates, rolling through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, killing the Rouran barbarians until they heard the news and fell into pieces.

It was he who raised 300,000 troops and marched all the way south. With thunderous momentum, he swept across the south of the Yangtze River. With three battles and three victories, he killed 400,000 men of Southern Chu. He flattened the mountains and rivers of the Chu Kingdom in one fell swoop and established an immortal foundation for the Great Zhou Dynasty. merit.

Ever since he was born, there has never been a time when heroes in the world were all-powerful.

He is a hero, a god of war, a generational hero, and a passionate man!

That's right.

This heroic commander in white is the second son of Emperor Xuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Xiao Longxian, and Empress Dugu Yuanji of Zhang Xian. He is also the half-brother of the new emperor Xiao Changyao. He has been in the army for half his life. He is invincible and invincible. He holds the main force of 400,000 Jingbei Army. The God of War who has made countless unparalleled feats and shocked the world - Qin King Xiao Changling!

I saw Qin King Xiao Changling dressed in white armor, majestic, majestic and proud, his body was like a fine iron pillar, his hands were holding the golden and iron sword that was always around, without moving at all.

Behind him, there was a huge wooden frame, with a sharp-edged "Huwei gilt halberd", also known as "Huwei", standing upright on it, which was about one foot and three feet long. His Royal Highness's usual horse weapon.

Just talking about that long sword, it is very different from ordinary swords. This sword is called "Chengying". The sword is three feet long. It is a famous ancient sword. It is made of natural fine iron. The shape of the sword is like a crescent moon. It is stored in a dark scabbard. The sword pattern is as bright as clouds. Wrapped in a faint green light, there is a peerless sword at the end.

Little did they know, under the sword of Chengying, how many souls died on the battlefield and how many enemies were beheaded!

At this moment, the twenty-seven-year-old His Highness the King of Qin, who was doing everything in his power, was holding the "Chengying" with both hands, standing on the high commanding platform, staring quietly into the distance, his white clothes fluttering in the wind.

At the same time, there was no one around Xiao Changling. In addition to a few personal guards wearing armor and sabers, there was also a strong young general who gently pressed the hilt of his sword and stood beside King Qin. side.

He is the deputy general of the Jingbei Army, the confidant of King Qin Xiao Changling, and a famous general known as the "Gong of Jingbei" - General Hussar, Zhu Guo, and Wuxiang Hou Su Yi.

"Your Majesty, the new emperor has just ascended the throne and he hastily summoned you to the capital. I wonder what his intention is?" Su Yi finally spoke.

At this moment, Xiao Changling's cold gaze slowly swept across the soldiers training in the camp, and his eyes gradually blurred... Seventeen years ago, on the Ganzhou city tower, that handsome young man from the Xiao family Lang, standing there condescendingly, looking at the beautiful mountains and rivers.

But not long after, Xiao Changling came back to his senses and snorted softly.

"There is nothing strange about this. It must be my brother, the emperor, who is thinking about Gu's military power. He wants to take back Gu's Jingbei army when he first ascends the throne to show his power as the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty. "

Su Yi was startled.

"Your Majesty, the Jingbei Army is your hard work for many years. You can't hand it over at any cost. I'm sure that as soon as you hand over the military power, our 400,000 soldiers will really become meat on the chopping board and be slaughtered by others. . Your Majesty, don’t blame me for speaking harshly. Don’t say that you don’t agree. We old brothers who have followed you for ten years will not agree either.” Su Yi said anxiously.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Changling sneered, and the expression on his face was as cold as ever.

"I understand everything you said. I know my imperial brother very well. He appears to be benevolent and moral, but in reality he is full of swords and guns. He is always good at talking and taking advantage of him. I saw through him ten years ago. But this time he made a mistake. Well, I, Xiao Changling, am not the one who is just sitting there waiting to be killed. The Jingbei Army is mine, no one can take it away. If you want to seize Gu’s military power, it depends on whether he has the ability!"

"Hmm... It seems that your Majesty is summoning the king to the capital this time out of ill intentions. Once the king goes to the capital, it will undoubtedly be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, which will bring disaster. Therefore, in my opinion, it is best to go to the capital. It’s absolutely impossible to go.”

After he finished speaking, Xiao Changling looked up to the sky and laughed, his laughter was extremely wild.

"A sheep enters a tiger's mouth?! Is Gu a sheep?"

"In the whole world, I'm afraid there are only a few people who want to take Gu Xiang's head. Just rely on those dandies in the capital! What a joke! I want to see who in this world can hide me, Xiao Changling. !”

"But, Your Majesty..." Su Yi still felt a little worried.

Suddenly, Xiao Changling mentioned "Cheng Ying" and held the dark scabbard with his right hand. He turned slightly and looked at Su Yi's sad face. He couldn't help but smile indifferently, with a kind of disdain for the world.

"Mingshuo, don't worry, it's not a big deal. I'm just going to Beijing. I'll come back as soon as I go. Our Majesty has a far-sighted vision. He won't let anything happen to me. If I go to Beijing to die, then when the time comes, , the Jingbei army will rebel. I don’t believe that those noble families can withstand the anger of an army of 400,000! On the contrary, once I get there, the court will not only not kill me, but will treat me as an ancestor. You Do you know why?"

"With the Jingbei army here, the king can sit back and relax!" Su Yi suddenly realized.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Soon, Xiao Changling was holding a sword in one hand and holding the railing with his right hand, and his cold and stern eyes gradually became deeper.

"Send the order and arrange for three thousand iron pagodas to be sent to Beijing with me tomorrow."

"Your Majesty, would you like me to escort you to the capital..." Su Yi asked.

Before Su Yi could finish speaking, Xiao Changling waved his hand.

"No need. Oh, by the way, after I leave, you can check carefully in the army to see if there are any spies planted by the imperial court. Once you find out, immediately..."

Just as he was speaking, an evil smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Xiao Changling's mouth, and then he spread his right hand, hooked his fingers in the air, and made a "killing" gesture, as if the world was in the palm of his hand.

"I will eventually understand." Su Yi responded loudly.



Xiao Changling shook his clothes and stood in front of him.

He stared deeply, looking at the clouds on the horizon, becoming more and more fascinated.

He saw a beautiful figure walking toward him. Her smile, every move, her graceful figure, her tender eyes, and her spotless style still made him intoxicated to this day. , made him obsessed, and he was deeply involved in it just at a glance, unable to extricate himself.

At this moment, Xiao Changling's thoughts returned to twelve years ago, to the scene when he first met her, and to the place where he had seen her for thousands of years.

"Wan'er, how have you been doing these years..."
