If Roshna was assassinated, someone must be sent to check it out.
The emperor said: "You two should go too. Qubing, go and see Roshna yourself."
Huo Qubing and Ru Bohu then exited the study.
"Today's incident actually contains hidden dangers. If Marquis Ru Yin dies later in the evening, the mark in his body will inevitably dissolve. There will be no trace left. It will be difficult for you to explain clearly."
On the way out of the palace, Ru Bohu said: "When Princess Pingyang starts to cause trouble, the clan will take the opportunity to suppress foreign ministers. A turmoil is inevitable."
The clan is the largest family power in the world, with deep roots.
The entire Liu clan has a huge system, and all the princes from all over the world are part of the clan.
Sometimes the emperor had to submit to the clan's consensus, because the throne was also inseparable from the support of his clan members.
Clan relatives are the biggest supporters and vested interest groups of the emperor.
"The method of letting this puppet Ru Yinhou set fire to himself is actually quite powerful. Once you have a dispute with your clan members, you will be hindered everywhere in the Han Dynasty." Ru Bohu had a solemn expression on his long face.
Huo Qubing remembered his previous experience at Yanjiao Mountain Gate and changed the subject: "I asked your subordinate Xiu Yi to pay attention to the movements in several counties along the eastern coast. Have you found anything?"
"Not yet. If there is, I will notify you immediately."
At noon, the sky was a little cloudy.
Huo Qubing separated from Ru Bohu at the north gate of Weiyang Palace and went about their own affairs.
When he came out of the palace, he happened to meet another group of people led by the chamberlain who wanted to enter the palace and were being interrogated by the imperial army at the door.
"I've seen the champion!"
The chamberlain leading the way saw Huo Qubing and greeted him with a courtesy.
When Huo Qubing walked over, he felt that someone in the group was looking at him.
With his keen perception, he clearly caught the young man with piercing eyes.
What's amazing is that even the route of Qi running in the other person's body, his level of cultivation, his left hand as his dominant hand, his height, weight, and the rhythm and frequency of each breath, all this information is naturally presented in Huo Qubing's perception.
As his practice grows, he is advancing towards a mysterious and mysterious level.
The young man opposite was completely unaware of all his information. At this moment of intersection, he was clearly grasped.
Huo Qubing was gone in an instant.
Among the people standing there, Jin Xu withdrew his gaze from Huo Qubing.
A quarter of an hour later, Jin Xu followed the chamberlain and returned to the palace where he saw his sister yesterday.
Concubine Jin was wearing a red Baishui skirt with numerous patterns, her face was as white as jade, and she was sitting in the hall with a calm expression, surrounded by attendants on both sides.
She saw Jin Xu come in and smiled slightly.
Siblings have been siblings for many years, but Jin Xu could tell at a glance that his sister was not in a high mood and was not as happy as when he saw him yesterday, so he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with sister?"
Concubine Jin said with some emotion: "In this palace, news spreads so fast.
Before you came, something happened in His Majesty's South Study, which was related to the Champion and me. "
Jin Xu waited for his sister to continue.
Concubine Jin glanced at the attendants on the left and right, and organized her words:
"I was brought into the palace by the eldest princess Pingyang, so I was naturally classified into her clan lineage, and they just had a dispute with the champion."
Concubine Jin was worried about her left and right and could not speak clearly.
But Jin Xu already understood what his sister meant.
When she enters the palace, she relies on the support of Princess Pingyang and the clan behind her to survive.
But they had a dispute with Huo Qubing, and the result was obviously not good, which made Concubine Jin worried, as if she had lost a helping hand.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore.
Yesterday you said that the Northern Army had more opportunities to go to war than the Southern Army, so you chose to go to the Northern Army. Have you ever gone to the Northern Army Officer's Office to submit your biography for examination? "
"The verification has been passed on, and the specific military affairs for my entry into the Northern Army will be arranged in the afternoon."
Jin Xu was slightly refreshed: "Sister, do you know the regulations after the champion takes charge of the Forbidden Army. Whenever a new recruit joins the Forbidden Army, he will personally review it. I will join the army this afternoon, and there may be some tests. At that time, I will let him remember me, Hexi Jin Xu name."
Concubine Jin said: "Actually, sister is a little worried about you going to the Northern Army. If you really go to the battlefield, you must be very careful."
Jin Xu said angrily: "Winning on the battlefield, why should we be afraid?
Sister, let’s wait and see. In three to five years at most, I will be the one who will be honored as a general.
If I could go to the battlefield, I would be happy to meet the Huns. "
————
The diplomatic buildings at the south gate of Chang'an.
In the afternoon, the building was under martial law.
Huo Qubing came over after receiving the emperor's orders. Immediately, an official from the embassy, in his forties, came quickly to greet him: "My subordinate Cui Ji, I have seen Lang Zhongling.
An envoy was assassinated in the embassy, and his ministers were terrified. "
Huo Qubing walked inside, and the official followed beside him to introduce the situation:
"Roshna was meditating indoors when she was assassinated. I waited until I heard the noise and went there. The assassin had already left.
The minister only knew that one of Roshna's attendants was dead. Roshna seemed to be injured too, but she didn't let her subordinates get close. "
Huo Qubing walked straight into the atrium of the building.
There were attendants beside Roshna, guarding the door of the inner sanctum.
"Please come in, Hou Huo!" Roshna's voice came from inside.
The palace door is wide open.
Huo Qubing walked into it boldly and saw Roshna wearing a Western-style lake blue short shirt and a long skirt of the same color, but her upper body was quite open, revealing her fair and flawless arms.
The upright neckline reveals the delicate collarbone and there are two concave beauty nests.
Going down along the collarbone, you can see the beautiful peaks and mountains, and you can see many small mountains at a glance.
There was a white ribbon wrapped around Roshna's waist to tie up the wound.
Her close follower, Bo Hamu, had just tied up her wound, stood up, nodded to Huo Qubing, and picked up the things to treat the injury.
After Roshna stood up, she touched her bare feet on the wooden floor and said, "I'm actually fine. I'd like to ask Huo Hou to come over in person."
"The place where you were attacked was in this hall?"
Huo Qubing's eyes suddenly shone, promoting the cultivation of Zhenyi Dharma Tengshe, and his spirit became extremely condensed in an instant.
In his consciousness, the power of the Soaring Snake Chapter, which specializes in cultivating the soul, circulated and blessed his eyes. In the depths of his pupils, two tiny dark golden incantations flashed.
The two great weapon talismans, Soaring Snake and Ling Ye, are also working together.
The void became clearly visible in Huo Qubing's eyes, and the facade of the space seemed to become the same entity as the 'ground', which he could see through.
The traces left by the assassin in the space slowly appeared.
Huo Qubing walked to the window. Under his gaze, there was a trace of Qi remaining at the window, which was a wisp of sword energy.
The sword energy was extremely sharp. Huo Qubing seemed to be able to see a ray of sword light piercing the sky and suddenly breaking into the room, approaching Roshna who was sitting quietly in the room at that time.
In front of Huo Qubing's eyes, it was like time and space were flowing back, replaying the scene at that time.
After the assassin drew his sword, Roshna's reaction was astonishing. Her white and tender hand, under almost impossible circumstances, accurately discerned the trajectory of the opponent's sword, and struck it horizontally on the incoming blade, interrupting the opponent's sword. subsequent changes in momentum.
Roshna's skills were obviously far beyond the opponent's expectations.
The two clashed several times in a flash of lightning.
In the moment of life-and-death struggle, another person jumped out as if appearing out of thin air, stabbing out a sword from an angle.
Roshna was hurt at that moment.
At the same time, her attendants heard the sound and came from outside to support her.
The assassin missed a hit and when he was running away, he jumped out of the window and encountered the attendant who was coming to kill him.
When an attendant met him, he was struck by the sharp sword energy between his eyebrows and died in an instant.
In the end, the two assassins seemed to have jumped into the shadows in the corner and disappeared mysteriously.
Roshna watched with some surprise as Huo Qubing came in, followed the assassin's entry into the room, and the exact direction and direction of her actions, and finally stopped at the location where the assassin disappeared.
"Could Mr. Huo be able to see the assassin's fight with me and his escape route?" Roshna was surprised.
"When you come, you leave a mark."
After Huo Qubing finished speaking, he touched the void with his hand, as if he was sensing a message left in the space.
He himself was slightly surprised by the rapid growth of his own strength.
Not long ago, he had not been so perceptive.
Everything changed after the Lingluo Soldier Talisman appeared and the symbols were drawn from the well.
Let his practice be promoted again, and it will increase by nearly a thousand miles every day.
He was probably in the midst of an extremely mysterious spiritual practice, taking a military path that no one had ever tried before.
"The other party has strong Qi and blood. He is probably practicing in the four realms of heaven and humans. He is about forty years old. There is another person... They besieged you... The whole fight lasted less than two breaths." Huo Qubing said almost to himself.
Roshna's eyes were filled with strange colors.
What Huo Qubing said was exactly as clear as witnessing the scene and watching the battle.
This was the first time she had seen such a sharp and terrifying perception.
"I will have people investigate this matter in the future. The defense here will be tighter and there will be no more assassinations."
Huo Qubing said, "Someone was stabbed to death by an assassin while he was escaping. Is he your personal attendant?"
Roshna said sadly: "Yes. Huo Hou, please go slowly. I have something to ask you."
"You want to ask me why I haven't sent troops to force Loulan back and help you in Kucha?"
Huo Qubing said: “This is not a deliberate delay, but this battle involves a game between the Han and the Huns.
In fact, the confrontation between the two sides has already begun.
I received news earlier today that the Western Huns had taken orders from the capital and were showing signs of preparing their troops.
And I, the Han Dynasty Governor of Xiguan, also ordered a group of troops to march southwest from Yumen, with the frontline directed at Loulan, so that Qiuci would not be attacked again. "
After Huo Qubing said this, he left like a dragon and a tiger.
After leaving the building, he passed the information about the assassin that he had gained to Ru Bohu, asking him to send his men to investigate.
In the afternoon, Huo Qubing returned to the Guard Hall to handle official duties.
"Wang Yan, I asked you to inform the Li family, the Zhao family and other horse-breeding clans who came to Chang'an. Where are they?"
Wang Yan was the doctor under the command of Lang Zhongling, who was equivalent to a staff officer. He replied: "As soon as the order was passed, I will go to urge them to come to Chang'an as soon as possible."
Wang Yan spoke and handed over a bamboo slip.
Huo Qubing took it and looked through it.
What Wang Yan handed over was a roster of newly recruited members of the Chang'an Forbidden Army.
Among them were those from related households who came in through the back door, descendants of the clan, and relatives of the royal family. Huo Qubing usually went through the sieve himself.
"Dr. Zhongling, the new recruits who want to join our imperial army are outside the palace." Wang Yan reminded.
"Let them in."
Outside the hall, there were more than ten people waiting to enter the Forbidden Army with Jin Xu. They all had some background and were all around 20 years old.
Knowing that they were going to see the champion, these clan members were no exception and were all excited.
After a while, a group of people were brought into the guard hall.
As soon as Jin Xufu entered the palace, he saw Huo Qubing sitting deep in the palace, hunched over his desk reviewing military affairs.
The large seal of Lang Zhongling was placed on the low seat where he sat.
There are two rows of weapon racks against the walls on both sides of the hall, with numerous weapons on them. Huo Qubing's battle armor hangs on his side and behind.
This guard hall is the place where hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops gather, and the troops are fierce.
For the newcomers Jin Xu and others, this hall is very unfriendly.
As soon as they entered, they immediately felt like they were on the battlefield. The moment they stepped into the main hall, the sound of thousands of troops fighting and fighting could be heard in their ears, and a rush of blood and murderous intent came to their faces.
Even the ground seemed to be shaking and bumping, and the sounds of war drums and horse hooves were intertwined.
Jin Xu and others were caught off guard and were all taken aback.
Of the dozen or so people who came in, half panicked and stood back outside the hall.
Inside and outside the palace, just one step away, there are two worlds.
Jin Xu calmed down, knowing that this change was probably a test for the new recruits like Huo Qubing.
He was not surprised but happy, full of confidence, and planned to give Huo Qubing an impressive 'meeting gift'.
Jin Xu then took the second step in the palace.
There were four or five people around him who also woke up and took steps together.
And as they moved forward, the more they walked forward, the more they felt the soldiers in front of them were fierce, as if there was an invisible war spear standing in front of their throats. If they took a step forward, the war spear would pierce through their throats.
Every step you take requires great courage.
A group of more than ten people entered the hall, and half of them exited at the first step.
After taking three steps, only Jin Xu and one other person were left. After taking another step forward, only Jin Xu himself was left.
He raised his head and glanced at where the champion was. It was out of reach, at least ten feet away. He looked behind him and saw that he had only taken five steps in total.
Still five small steps!
And he had reached his limit, with big beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He tried his best and could not take even half a step forward.
What shocked him was that as he went further into the palace, the soldiers became more and more serious. Based on the distance he took these five steps, how much pressure should be placed on the position of the champion, ten feet away, deep inside the palace? !
"Tell us your name, cultivation level, and direction!" Wang Yan shouted softly in the hall.
With his voice, the abnormality in the palace disappeared.
"Zhao Chang, a sixth-level military strategist, twenty-three years old, a military strategist and scout, good at observing the enemy's energy!"
"Xu Mou, a fifth-level military strategist, 21 years old, has a lot of skills in military skills, and is good at confusing the enemy on the battlefield and tracking him!"
"..."
Voices sounded.
Military practice is also divided into different schools. If you can enter the realm of gods and humans in the future, you can echo each other in the directions of military power, military situation, and military yin and yang.
For example, he is good at using the right time and place to use military tactics to deduce the battle situation. If you can enter the realm of heaven and man, you can develop in the direction of the military situation.
When he arrived at Jin Xu, he said loudly: "I practice military power. I am twenty years old and an eighth-level military strategist."
Then he added: "I can already feel the barrier of the heaven-human realm, and I am confident that I will enter the heaven-human realm within two years."
Wang Yan in front and Xiao Qisheng standing behind Huo Qubing both smiled.
People who have reached the eighth or ninth level of the military realm will try their best to get closer to the threshold of the heaven and human realm, feeling that they are very close to the heaven and human realm.
In fact, it is a huge barrier that most practitioners cannot cross in their lifetime.
Jin Xu looked at Huo Qubing, who was concentrating on the low seat, reviewing military affairs, and suddenly said loudly: "Champion, I hope to have the opportunity to participate in actual combat. Fight with the Xiongnu or the surrounding nomadic tribes to sharpen the edge of the army to prove that I, Jin Xu talent.”
Huo Qubing said to Wang Yan: "If you ask for actual combat, let him go.
If the Huns move, let him exercise. "
"Master Hou..." Wang Yan's goatee on his chin trembled slightly, but he hesitated to speak.
If this person dies, his family will be in turmoil.
Huo Qubing indicated that he would do as he wished.
Wang Yan immediately asked his soldiers to go down and make arrangements.
Before Jin Xu left, he looked up at the depths of the palace and pursed his lips.
After the new soldiers left, it was evening.
Huo Qubing received the latest news sent by Ru Bohu: "The Huns have a troop of soldiers and horses, which entered the east grassland and then went south. Their whereabouts are secretive...
After seeing it, Huo Qubing thought: The battle between Han and Hungarians for the Western Region has finally officially begun.
He turned to look out the window at the fiery sunset.
