This connection actually took twice as long as Luo Xing estimated. This effort required Wang Haifeng and Meng Yi to come over.
If you are alone, you really can't support it.
When Luo Xing pulled out the last silver needle, he collapsed to the ground from exhaustion, while Meng Yi and Wang Haifeng could not help but show a hint of fatigue on their faces.
After Wang Haifeng meditated and adjusted his breath for a week, he left directly. He was out for a little long.
As for Mengyi, this time he used all his strength. Fortunately, the result was good.
Luo Xing can bring a person with a broken heart back from the brink of death, even if he needs help from others.
This is also shocking enough.
"Xiao Qi, when my teacher was protecting Mrs. Qin's sea of spiritual consciousness just now, I checked the injuries in her body and found that her injuries were caused by Xiaotianxing Fist. This is an extremely ancient boxing technique that has been passed down to this day. The sect that originally created it, the Tianxing Sect, has long been lost in the dust of history, but the boxing technique has been preserved." Meng Yi explained.
"Little Star Fist, Master, who knows this boxing technique now?"
"Nanchu Wuying Hall."
"What, it's Nanchu again?" Luo Xing was shocked when he heard this. This person from Nanchu had penetrated Luo Jing so well.
The Nanchu inner guards, the Jinyi guards, and now the Wuying Palace?
"Assassinating Mrs. Yunyang Hou aroused dissatisfaction among the border generals. What good will this do to Southern Chu?" Meng Yi was also puzzled. "Yunyang Hou is guarding Tianlang Pass. Once the imperial court signs a peace agreement with Xirong, the Tianlang Army will It is very likely that they will go south to the southeast. At this time, Nan Chu assassinates Mrs. Qin. Doesn’t this add fuel to the fire? "
"Perhaps Nanchu deliberately instigated the relationship between Marquis Yunyang and the imperial court." Luo Xing analyzed from another angle, "Mrs. Qin was assassinated in Luojing. Is the imperial court responsible for failing to protect the capital? The thieves come and go at will, assassinating the families of the imperial border generals, and our Majesty has always been suspicious and suspicious. If Marquis Yunyang, who is far away in Tianlang Pass, learns that his wife has been assassinated, will he abandon military affairs and come to Beijing regardless of everything?"
"You mean, the other party's target is Marquis Yunyang?"
"Actually, I also heard a rumor that His Majesty wants to sign a peace agreement with Xirong, and then lead the army to regain the southeast with the Marquis of Yunyang as commander!" Luo Xing said, "If the rumor is true, then Nanchu intends to target Yunyang Hou is right."
"It makes sense. If Marquis Yunyang leaves the border and returns to the capital without being summoned, His Majesty will definitely deal with it. By then, it will be impossible for Marquis Yunyang to take over the southeast commander seal."
"Moreover, after Yunyang Marquis takes command of the Southeast, if he returns victorious, he can successfully regain military power, give him a high position, and stay in the capital to retire..."
Meng Yi was shocked. He could see the crisis of Marquis Yunyang, but his disciple could see further. This may be His Majesty's intention.
"Of course, this will have to wait until the war situation in the southeast is stabilized. Now there are people who don't want Marquis Yunyang to become the coach of the Eastern Expedition!" Luo Xing said.
"But the assassin only needs to stab Mrs. Qin, why should she be killed?"
"The relationship between Marquis Yunyang and his wife is so deep that ordinary couples cannot compare. If Mrs. Qin is only seriously injured and her life is not in danger, Marquis Yunyang, as a border general, will definitely put the overall situation first and will not easily violate the prohibition and secretly Come to the capital, but if Mrs. Qin is in danger, as a husband, do you think he would want to see his wife one last time?" Luo Xing analyzed and explained.
"It makes sense, but Mrs. Qin is a disciple of the Beast Control Sect and her cultivation is not weak. How could she be injured without any resistance?"
"We'll have to wait until Mrs. Qin wakes up to find out." Luo Xing said. He was not a god, so he could only make inferences based on the information he currently had.
"Then Xiaoqi, I won't stay any longer as a teacher." Meng Yi also left first.
Qin Hongtiao came in and saw her mother's face rosy and her breathing steady, and her heart suddenly dropped.
Qin Hongtiao has never admired anyone except her father in her life, but now, she is completely impressed by Luo Xing.
He immediately knelt down to Luo Xing and said, "Hongtao thanks Master Luo for your kindness in saving my mother."
"Miss Hongtao, get up quickly, I can't bear this." Luo Xing hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, "Your Majesty has made great contributions to the people of the country, so it is appropriate for me to come to the rescue. Besides, this is not the result of me alone. Eunuch Wang and my mentor also made great efforts."
"With Eunuch Wang and Manager Meng, Hongtao will definitely personally prepare a generous gift to thank you."
"You don't need to go to Eunuch Wang's place Hongtao. He doesn't want people to know about leaving the palace. I will tell him for you. As for my master's place, you can go, but you need to keep a low profile." Xing said.
"Hongtiao understands." Qin Hongtiao said, "Master Luo and Sister Qingyi worked hard all night, and Hongtiao ordered someone to prepare a guest room..."
"Okay, I'll excuse you then." Luo Xing wanted to know how Lin Xiaorou got hurt and who hurt him. After thinking about it for a while, he nodded in agreement.
…
Changming Hall, Xinuan Pavilion.
Emperor Yongxi angrily threw up a jade tube containing a pen and smashed it hard at Wei Wuya, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial City Department who was kneeling not far below the throne!
Wei Wuya didn't dare to hide, and the hard jade tube hit him hard on the forehead. The disciple fell out, and the brushes inside were scattered all over the floor.
However, the jade pen holder was very hard, and it didn't even get bumped at all. It rolled to Qixi's feet. He wanted to pick it up but didn't dare to pick it up.
Emperor Yongxi was in a rage, and if he was not careful, he would become a fish in the pond.
"What are you doing standing there, why don't you pick it up for me!" Emperor Yongxi snorted angrily, lowering his head and not moving.
"No." Qixi hurriedly bent down to pick up the jade pen holder, then lay down, picked up all the brushes that fell on the ground one by one, and put them back.
"Wei Wuya!"
"My servant is here." Wei Wuya was also a first-grade grand master, but under the power of the emperor, he showed no resistance at all.
"Check, check for me. Find me the person who assassinated Mrs. Yunyang Hou. Dig three feet into the ground!" Emperor Yongxi was furious. As an emperor, how could he not understand that this assassin was ostensibly targeting Yunyang? The reason why Hou went there was actually for the imperial court.
The candidate for the head coach of next year's Eastern Expedition has not been announced to the outside world. The limited candidates are not the most satisfactory to him.
However, the reconciliation with Xirong was imminent, and Marquis Yunyang, who had guarded Tianlang Pass for many years, became the most suitable candidate. Firstly, this man had outstanding merits, was prestigious in the army, and could suppress others. Secondly, he was his son and daughter-in-law. , feel free to use it. Thirdly, Marquis Yunyang has no foundation in the southeast. After the attack, he will directly take back his military power.
If such a suitable candidate is destroyed by a conspiracy, how can he not be angry?
"My servant obeys the order!" Wei Wuya agreed. This was not his job in the Imperial City Department, but now that the emperor asked him to do it, how could he refuse to do it?
"Okay, you go down and give me a result within three days!"
The assassination case of the fourth prince of Xirong has not yet come to a conclusion, and it is reported that Mrs. Qin, the Marquis of Yunyang, was almost killed after being assassinated. This all shows that there is a force making trouble in Luojing City.
They all come for the southeast battle in the spring.
In less than two months, the freeze will be completely lifted, and the war will break out at the end of February or the beginning of March. Basically, there won't be much change.
"Your Majesty, Lord Nanya Luo Xingluo wants to see you!" Suddenly, the young eunuch from the Huangmen hurried inside to report.
"Xuan!"
"Master Xuanluo Xingluo has an audience!"
"Your Majesty, Luo Xing, goes to see you!"
"Luo Aiqing, no courtesy, please be free!" Emperor Yongxi said with a warm look, "Give me a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Luo Xing hurriedly thanked him. Those who could allow Emperor Yongxi to grant a seat in Xinuan Pavilion were all veterans and important ministers in the court. This kind of honor was rare.
"Luo Aiqing saved Madam Yunyang Hou this time, avoided a catastrophe, and made great contributions. How should I reward you?" Emperor Yongxi asked.
"Your Majesty, this is what a minister should do. He should not ask for rewards." Luo Xing said.
"It is the duty of a minister to be rewarded for his merits. How can I let the meritorious minister feel cold? However, Aiqing has just raised his title by one level. It would be inappropriate to mention it again. I know that you have a confidante, who is Xirong Puppet Shadow Hall. How about giving her a legal status and allowing her to stay with you?"
"I thank your Majesty for your kindness." Luo Xing immediately knelt down to thank him. Hong Ying's identity was always a mystery. No one knew when it would be revealed.
But now that Emperor Yongxi endorses him, it's completely different. In the future, who will dare to make trouble with Hongying's identity.
"Well, how is Madam Yunyanghou doing?"
"Mrs. Qin is no longer seriously injured, but Wei Chen has blocked the news from the outside world. No one knows the specific situation of Mrs. Qin yet."
"You did the right thing. If the assassin gets the news, he might be malicious again." Emperor Yongxi nodded.
"Your Majesty, I asked Mrs. Qin. She was resting in the room at that time. Suddenly a black shadow sneaked into the room silently. Mrs. Qin was caught off guard and punched the opponent. The room was dark at the time, and she could not see the opponent clearly. Then, Qin Hongtiao heard her mother's screams and rushed over, frightening the assassin away." Luo Xing explained.
"Mrs. Yunyang Hou is also a master of martial arts. How could she be so careless?"
"Firstly, Mrs. Qin has an old injury and cannot perform even two or three points of her very high cultivation. Secondly, she left her pet at Tianlang Pass and her power dropped sharply. Thirdly, the assassin's cultivation is extremely high. , being able to sneak into the Yunyang Marquis Mansion silently is evident."
"Aiqing's analysis is reasonable. I have ordered a black feathered guard to be stationed in the Marquis Yunyang's Mansion to protect the safety of Marquis Yunyang's wife!" Emperor Yongxi said.
"Your Majesty, the Black Feather Guards are the royal guards and cannot be touched without permission. I think it is enough for Nan Ya to dispatch an elite cavalry team to the Yunyang Marquis Mansion to protect Mrs. Qin." Luo Xing said, "The assassin can succeed with one strike, as long as we Block the news and won’t take action again in a short time.”
"Aiqing's analysis makes sense, then I'll do as you say." Emperor Yongxi thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"I obey the order!" Luo Xing bowed and resigned.
…
Not long after Luo Xing left, Zhuo Chunfeng also handed over a sign asking to see Emperor Yongxi.
"Zhuo Aiqing is here, please take a seat." Emperor Yongxi still trusted and relied on Zhuo Chunfeng as before, and greeted him warmly.
"Your Majesty, I came here because of the assassination of Mrs. Yunyang Hou." Zhuo Chunfeng sat down and said directly.
"I know this. I have tasked the Imperial City Division to track down this killer. He must be captured and brought to justice." Emperor Yongxi nodded.
"Your Majesty, although the murderer must be caught, Marquis Yunyang must also respond." Zhuo Chunfeng leaned forward and said.
"Ai Qing, do you want me to issue a decree to appease you?"
"No, Wei Chen means to take this opportunity to transfer Marquis Yunyang back to the capital." Zhuo Chunfeng said.
"We haven't signed a peace agreement with Xirong yet. Is it too early to transfer him back to Beijing now?" Emperor Yongxi frowned slightly.
"Your Majesty, I have a memorial here. Please read it." Zhuo Chunfeng took out a memorial from his sleeve and raised his hands high.
Emperor Yongxi nodded and asked Qixi to go over and get the memorial.
After opening it and looking at the contents inside, Emperor Yongxi quickly closed it and asked with a serious expression: "Zhuo Aiqing, is there a third person who knows the contents of this article?"
"have."
"who?"
"Lord Luo Xingluo, the head of the Special Investigation Department of our government office, most of the content in this memorial was suggested by him." Zhuo Chunfeng said.
"I didn't expect Luo Aiqing to be so talented at arranging troops. This really surprises me!" Emperor Yongxi stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen thinks that this method can be tried, and it will definitely achieve miraculous results!" Zhuo Chunfeng suggested solemnly.
"Zhuo Aiqing, how confident do you think this matter is?"
"I am not good at military affairs, so I dare not speak nonsense, but your majesty can ask someone who understands military affairs and you will understand."
"Good, but if this matter is done, it must be kept secret. Once the secret is leaked and Nanchu is on guard, all the previous efforts will be wasted." Emperor Yongxi was actually moved. If he could solve the three southeastern states with minimal losses, even if It is worth taking some risks. The saved military expenditures can also be used to restore production in the southeast, allowing Da Zhou to recover as soon as possible.
"How to mobilize troops? Thirty thousand troops are not a handful. There must be spies in Southern Chu within our territory. How can we hide it from the eyes of these people?"
"First let the Lingzhou Guards secretly interact with the Tianlang Pass garrison, and then His Majesty orders the Lingzhou Guards to move south. We will definitely be able to do so without anyone noticing!"
"There are no spies from Southern Chu in Lingzhou Guards?"
"It's hard to say, but as long as they are transferred to Tianlang Pass, there will be no way to send news to the outside world. Even if there are spies, it will be useless." Zhuo Chunfeng said.
Emperor Yongxi nodded: "It makes sense. If Qin Zhong is not at Tianlang Pass, who can stabilize the situation?"
"Mrs. Qin!" Zhuo Chunfeng said, "As long as Madam Yunyanghou is at Tianlang Pass, she can naturally overwhelm the Tianlang Army and make the Xirong people dare not make any move. You must know that Madam Yunyanghou was the leader of Qin Dynasty back then. His right-hand man, she is also a strong general on the battlefield. If she had not been injured and retired, she would have been the number one female general in our dynasty."
"Zhuo Aiqing, let me think twice!" Emperor Yongxi said, such a big matter cannot be decided at once, it must be thought about carefully.
