The Meridian Gate is the main entrance to Chaoge Imperial City. Because it is "centered facing the sun and positioned as Ziwu", it is named the Meridian Gate and is commonly known as the Wuchao Gate among the people.
In addition to being the door for officials to enter and exit, the Meridian Gate is also the place where imperial edicts and imperial notices are conveyed.
Whenever something important happens, the court will issue a notice at the Meridian Gate and then inform the world, so many people are always paying attention.
The thick stone wall not far outside the Meridian Gate is even more crowded, because it is the place where Dr. Shen once wrote poems at the Meridian Gate to appeal to the emperor, and killed the evil thieves Chonghou Hu and his son with a sword.
The densely packed names above bear witness to these great actions.
When the people of Chaoge gathered around the Meridian Gate today, they clearly felt that something was different from the past.
In just a moment, I saw numerous documents representing eight hundred miles of urgency, entered Chaoge, and hurriedly exited the Meridian Gate.
Everyone could feel that something was wrong, and an anxious atmosphere suddenly filled the air.
They stared outside the Meridian Gate with flickering eyes, waiting for the announcement of important events in the court.
Sure enough, not long after, a group of forbidden troops walked out of the Meridian Gate, dispersed the people near the city wall, and then solemnly posted the notice on the city wall with the notice in hand.
Such actions naturally attracted the attention of the people around him, especially the dense handwriting on it.
"I always feel like something big is going to happen today. Come on, go and have a look."
“It’s densely packed with too many words, so I’m too lazy to read it.”
"That's right, those symbols are like ghostly symbols. We are illiterate and can't understand them at all. It's probably because of something else that happened to the foolish Majesty today."
The people were talking a lot. Since Doctor Shen appeared, they became bolder and spoke more vigorously. There were endless discussions about King Zhou in the market.
Even if those officials hear it, it won't be a big deal. I'm afraid they will praise you for scolding well, which makes Doctor Shen look more energetic.
However, even though everyone said they were not ready to see it, no one turned around and looked back. Their curiosity still drove them.
What he said is that his words are too upright.
Immediately afterwards, the people gathered under the city wall in twos and threes, staring at the notice with dense handwriting.
There was a huge signature on the notice, which read Shen Xin, the doctor on Si Tiantai.
"This is written by Dr. Shen." Someone immediately shouted.
And more people looked at the words on the notice expectantly, and then read it out loud.
""The Master's Guide""
"The late emperor's great ambitions were not realized, but the middle path collapsed. Today, the world is in chaos and the world is at war. This is the autumn when the sincerity's survival is in danger..."
"Doctor Shen's expression is profound and comes from the bottom of his heart. He also repeatedly exhorts His Majesty to be open to the public, to listen clearly, to make rewards and punishments clear, to keep the virtuous and distant from the crooked. These actions are really for the sake of all people in the world."
"Yes, Doctor Shen also talked about his lifelong ambition. Today, the world is in chaos, with wars all over the world, princes are everywhere, and the people are in dire straits and are even more miserable."
"When there is a need for someone to stand up, revive the Yin Shang Dynasty, clean up the world, and restore peace to the world."
"Doctor Shen was truly loyal and devoted himself to the country until his death."
"When you become a master, you will show your true fame in the world. Who can compare with you in a thousand years?"
More and more people gathered outside the Meridian Gate. They sighed and felt even more distressed.
If Doctor Shen hadn't held up the sky with one hand, the Yin Shang Dynasty would have been torn apart long ago, and he and others would have been displaced due to the war, and they would have been displaced throughout their lives.
The loyalty and devotion to the country in that watch made countless people feel ashamed. Who else among the Yin Shang people today can be as good as Dr. Shen.
Compared with Dr. Shen, the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty were in heaven and on earth.
And they also knew that a war was about to break out. The rebels in Xiqi were rebelling, and Doctor Shen was going to lead an army to suppress the thieves and restore peace to the world.
The people were even more filled with emotion. They were in a daze and filled with emotion as they looked at the master's watch.
I wish I could fight on the battlefield with Dr. Shen and die for the country.
Not far away, on the imperial city, two figures stood side by side. Seeing this scene, Wen Zhong directly stroked his beard and laughed, sighing:
"People's support can be used, people's support can be used, but with Dr. Shen here, we, the Yin Shang Dynasty, really have hope."
Also seeing the common people sincerely supporting Doctor Shen, Shen Gongbao also had a smile on his face.
"What the Grand Master said is absolutely true. If it weren't for Dr. Shen, no one in the world would have such a reputation, not even my generation."
Wen Zhong nodded, still looking into the distance, but he seemed to ask with some meaning:
"I wonder what the Imperial Master thinks of Xiqi?"
Wen Zhong couldn't help but be cautious about the immortal who suddenly appeared in front of him. After all, he knew nothing about this powerful existence in front of him.
But after all, this person had an old relationship with Dr. Shen, so he started to test him in his words.
Xiqi?
Master, are you trying to test me? Shen Gongbao laughed in his heart, but he didn't care.
Because he didn't want to hide from Wen Zhong, and he couldn't hide it. With the other party's connections, if he wanted to know his identity, he couldn't hide it.
Shen Gongbao said calmly:
"Xiqi is said to be the destiny, but from Pindao's point of view, someone is just making things up."
Yes, in the hearts of ordinary people, Xiqi naturally represents destiny, but among this group of gods and discerning people, they have long seen his wolfish ambitions.
It's just that as a disciple of the Chan Cult, Shen Gongbao can't say some things openly and can only remind him secretly.
"But the road to Xiqi is long and dangerous. I'm afraid Zhang Guifang alone won't be able to protect Dr. Shen."
"Oh? Why?" Wen Zhong's eyes showed solemnity and he replied in a deep voice: "Although Xiqi has strange people to help, their strength is low. Zhang Guifang is enough to deal with them without Doctor Shen's action."
Shen Gongbao shook his head: "Although General Zhang is very powerful and possesses special skills, he underestimated Xiqi."
Although he didn't understand Fengshen thoroughly, he knew his senior brother and his teacher.
His master had been planning the matter of becoming a god for a long time. If he was easily defeated by Yin Shang, what would be the point?
I'm afraid that without further ado, some of my senior brothers will come down and join in to help Jiang Ziya, while Zhang Guifang deals with his senior brothers?
Let alone the Twelve Golden Immortals, I am afraid that even the disciples they have temporarily accepted will not have any chance to meet them.
"Have you underestimated Xiqi?"
Wen Zhong murmured to himself, his eyes moving.
But Shen Gongbao remained silent.
From Shen Gongbao's point of view, it is very dangerous for Zhang Guifang to go to Xiqi, and Doctor Shen is even more dangerous. The two of them are likely to encounter a master of teaching.
After all, my senior brothers don't care about morality, and it is normal for the big ones to bully the small ones.
Then Wen Zhong nodded thoughtfully and heard that real immortals like Shen Gongbao were hesitant. Is it possible that Xiqi really has a problem?
Regardless of whether there is a problem or not, to be on the safe side, we need to prepare several more layers of measures to protect Dr. Shen's safety.
After a while, Wen Zhong grabbed his long beard, already made up his mind, and said with a serious look:
"In this case, I will tell your Majesty that in addition to Zhang Guifang, several more troops will be sent to support Dr. Shen."
"The master is wise!"
Shen Gongbao smiled and flattered.
After hearing this, Wen Zhong slowly turned around, suddenly squinted his eyes, looked at Shen Gongbao and asked:
"Isn't the national master's cultivation level not that of a casual cultivator?"
…
In the Shen Mansion, Doctor Shen packed his bags immediately after leaving the court. After all, he was leaving Chaoge tomorrow and went on an expedition to Xiqi, so his plan should be perfected.
He also informed Huang Tianxiang and Little Fox about the matter.
Xiqi? This is dangerous! After hearing this, Huang Tianxiang couldn't help but become worried.
Although the Battle of Beichong was a complete victory under the strategizing of the adoptive father, this success was too accidental and too dangerous.
If it weren't for luck, any careless mistake might kill his adoptive father. Huang Tianxiang was really worried.
"Father, there are many strange people in Xiqi, and their methods are unpredictable. In addition, Jiang Ziya will be careful after his failure and will not be easily fooled. He must not be in danger again after this trip."
"Humph, it's just Jiang Ziya."
When Dr. Shen heard that Huang Tianxiang mentioned Beichong, his face darkened instantly and he said angrily.
"My father knows all about the art of war and strategy. Jiang Ziya is just a defeated general, so there is nothing to be afraid of."
Beichong, when Dr. Shen of Beichong was mentioned, he felt very heartbroken. Who would have thought that he just walked into the Xiqi Military Camp, faced the 100,000 troops, and won inexplicably without doing anything.
It was so smooth that it was unbelievable. How could it be overturned despite being so well-prepared? Thinking of this now is just adding salt to his wounds.
If it weren't for the fact that Huang Tianxiang needs to be relied on to block Nezha, I wouldn't have taken you with you as a scammer... Doctor Shen muttered in his heart.
He didn't want to pay attention to the cheater Huang Tianxiang, so he raised his head casually, only to find that the little fox next to him was lowering his head and wagging his tail, his face flushed.
Well, why are you still shy? Doctor Shen looked slightly confused.
Immediately afterwards, the little fox opened his arms and immediately hugged his waist, and said worriedly:
"Doctor Shen, can you not go? I can support you." The little fox finally managed to live in a world of two with Dr. Shen, so naturally he didn't want to let him leave.
What's more, if you have to go to such a far place, if, I mean, if there is any danger, wouldn't you be a widow?
So she was very excited.
Feeling the fox's expression, Dr. Shen could only touch the white hair on her head, dumbfounded.
But of course I can't agree to the other party's request. I am being kept by a stupid fox. If this news spreads, won't people laugh to death?
He immediately replied:
"No, we must go to Xiqi."
"Can you let me go too?"
The little fox hesitated for a long time, then settled for the next best thing, and raised his head cautiously, expecting.
"Doctor Shen, we have been together for so long, can you bear to leave me and stay in Chaoge and suffer?"
"The empress is very fierce. If, if, she captures me, I won't worry. But you don't have a mount. It will be very tiring to walk on your own, right?"
"Well, it's okay, I just happened to be changing."
Doctor Shen smiled and said unmoved. "Don't use your little thoughts on me. How can I, a dignified Shang Dynasty official, be as fascinated by a little fox like you as King Zhou?"
"Please, let me go, please." Seeing that his cleverness didn't work, the little fox immediately switched to acting coquettishly.
She has long understood Dr. Shen's temper, and he likes to be soft rather than tough.
Therefore, the trick of acting like a spoiled child is the most effective. She did not know that she once took advantage of Dr. Shen in this regard.
Sure enough, in the end, Dr. Shen relented under the little fox's unremitting efforts and had no choice but to agree.
Forget it, just take it with you. Anyway, with her strength, it won't affect the overall situation.
However, Doctor Shen's decision to change his mount is becoming more and more urgent, and must be implemented as soon as possible.
As soon as she and others took care of the fox, they saw the waiters from the palace coming to report that the Grand Master and Master Shen had come to pay their respects.
After hearing this, Doctor Shen looked startled and asked when these two sleeping dragons and phoenix chicks got together.
And when Dr. Shen walked out of the room and saw the two of them, they seemed to be very affectionate? You know, the two of them only met once.
Oh, he is Shen Gongbao, that's not surprising.
As we all know, Shen Gongbao's communication skills are at full level, and his mouth can make iron trees blossom and stones weep.
What's more, he and Grand Master Wen are both sleeping dragons and phoenixes, so they may have begun to attract each other.
Just as Doctor Shen was thinking about it, Grand Master Wen across from him had already spoken first.
"Doctor Shen, during this expedition to Xiqi, I have advised Your Majesty that Zhang Guifang will lead an army of 100,000 to attack Xiqi first."
"You will also lead an army of 100,000 people from Chaoge and stationed at Sishui Pass for backup."
"I only have one request. Dr. Shen must never be in danger. He should focus on protecting his own safety."
After Wen Zhong finished speaking, Shen Gongbao on the side also nodded and began to add:
"Doctor Shen only needs to sit in the rear and take command. If you have any needs, please send someone to Chaoge to report. Master Wen and I will do our best to help."
etc!
Why is something wrong? ? ?
Go to Sishui Pass and take command from behind?
This is a very safe thing. After all, Xiqi's strength can barely cope with the conquest army. As for attacking Sishui Pass, it is simply impossible under the current situation.
So Wen Zhong's idea is very safe.
but……
Waterma, I am rushing to die, is it appropriate for him to be so safe?
Dr. Shen immediately couldn't help but stood up and shouted loudly:
"Old Master, Shen Xin intends to put down the rebellion. He is willing to live and die together with the soldiers. He will serve on the battlefield with every sword and spear. Even if his body is wrapped in horse leather, his seven-foot body will not be wasted."
"How can we be timid before the battle and hide behind?"
Wen Zhong smiled and nodded in admiration. He was indeed a young hero, high-spirited and Dr. Shen never lacked courage.
However, the Yin Shang Dynasty cannot lack Doctor Shen. In the battle of Xiqi, Doctor Shen's safety must be safe, safe, and safe again.
Say important things three times.
So Wen Zhong patted Doctor Shen on the shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, doctor, strategizing and winning a thousand-mile victory are the most important things for us as commanders."
"Even if Xiqi is too difficult to leave, I and fellow Daoist Shen will still be here. Don't worry, we will try our best to help the doctor."
Doctor Shen's expression changed instantly.
Because both Wen Zhong and Shen Gongbao have a wide range of friends, including countless Taoist friends from three mountains and five mountains.
Wen Zhong, in particular, had a high prestige and reputation among the Jie sect.
This, if something unexpected happens, I can't bear it.
Doctor Shen simply fell silent at this moment and stopped answering the two people's words, fearing that he would make too many mistakes.
But I'm still shouting in my heart, you two can just be your sleeping dragon and phoenix chicks, don't help me...
But Wen Zhong didn't seem to hear it, but still minding his own business, he took out a shining golden whip from Mo Qilin behind him and solemnly handed it to Doctor Shen's hand.
"Doctor Shen, this whip was given by the late king. It can be used to beat the unruly and cowardly kings, and the treacherous and greedy ministers at the bottom. With this whip in your hand, it feels like I am here in person, and all the officers and soldiers of the five passes can be mobilized."
"If there is danger, you must not hold on, and please call for help as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he held Doctor Shen's hand.
Feeling the heavy golden whip in his hand, Doctor Shen was stunned for a long time and seemed to realize something.
mmp!
Wen Zhong, thank you.
However, although his heart was full of grief and anger and accusations against Wen Zhong, Doctor Shen still led his army and set off.
Because there is a saying that goes well.
"I will not accept your fate..."
