One general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted.
After the three top practitioners were defeated, the coalition forces retreated.
Retreating at this time is to stop losses in time and avoid greater damage.
Because they know very well that they will only suffer greater losses if they continue to fight.
The coalition forces came together because of their interests. Now that the war has failed, the coalition forces naturally have no possibility of continuing to exist.
The northern barbarians, southern barbarians, and Dongyue Jiange instantly dispersed and returned along their original paths.
The worst offender was Wei Wuji.
This time he came to Chang'an City with the intention of fishing in troubled waters, and took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the palace and kill Emperor Xianlong.
But he didn't expect that the mountain chief would take everything into consideration.
The mountain chief deliberately gave him a chance to confront Zheng Jie, and Wei Wuji used the expansion technique without hesitation.
Wei Wuji had the upper hand against Zheng Jie.
But so what?
After using the expansion technique, Wei Wuji became a real target, and his flexibility was greatly reduced.
The mountain chief only had to step hard on the target, and Wei Wuji could only cry and howl.
Of course, Wei Wuji suffered a loss in the wheel battle, but even if he did not fight Zheng Jie first, but instead gathered enough strength to fight the mountain leader, he still had little chance of winning.
After this battle, Wei Wuji would never have any thoughts of fighting with Shan Zhang again.
He understood that the gap between himself and the mountain leader was huge.
The situation of the Southern Barbarian witch and Gu masters is relatively better.
Apart from being slapped in the face by the mountain leader, he didn't suffer any real damage.
In fact, as long as you don't feel embarrassed about being slapped in the face, the only person who will be embarrassed is others.
Among the super cultivators, witch and Gu masters are also ranked low.
There is no shame in being unable to defeat the mountain leader.
And for Nanman, even if Chang'an is not taken, it is acceptable.
Because they will evacuate further to Jiannan Road.
Although Jiannan Road is not as good as Gyeonggi Province, and although Jinguan City is not as good as Chang'an City, it is already extremely wealthy.
You must know that the southern barbarians were driven into the vast mountains a thousand years ago.
They have been able to survive in extremely harsh conditions for thousands of years. Now that they finally managed to escape and occupied Jiannan Road, they are very satisfied.
Of course, the premise is that they can defend Jiannan Road and Jinguan City, otherwise they will have to go back to their mountains and live in caves.
With the Zhou people's vengeful character, they would definitely be dissatisfied after being so humiliated by the Nanman people, and they would definitely try their best to fight back.
Therefore, the most important thing for the Nanman people now is to return to Jiannan Road as soon as possible, build a fence as much as possible and wait for the Zhou army to attack.
The transition between offense and defense is sometimes so subtle.
As for the northern barbarians
Life was not easy either.
Although the main force of their army did not suffer any serious losses during this expedition, they also plundered a lot of things.
But returning to the grassland in despair at this time is obviously not a wise choice.
Because the reason why they chose to go south at this time instead of the autumn that grassland tribes usually choose was because of the severe drought in the grassland.
The drought is just too severe.
There was no water for people and livestock.
The river has dried up and not even the dead grass can survive.
If you don't go south, you will die.
That's why Ashina Zhuo insisted on going south despite the opposition of the great master of the Demon Sect.
Now they have looted gold and silver treasures, but if they return to the grassland, it is impossible for the gold and silver treasures to be transformed into food and water.
So everything is back to square one.
But if they don't go back, the Da Zhou army who has come back to their senses will probably come forward and beat them up.
After all, for the people of the Zhou Dynasty, they had suffered enough humiliation and invasion from barbarians.
Therefore, the northern barbarians must evacuate in time.
If they fell into the encirclement of the Zhou army, they would have no possibility of escaping.
Daming Palace, Zichen Hall.
Emperor Xianlong, who was sitting high on the dragon chair, looked cold.
He stared coldly at Wang Zhongyi who was kneeling in the hall, as if looking at a corpse.
For Emperor Xianlong, the most unacceptable thing was to be betrayed.
Especially the subject.
As the governor of Shuozhou, Wang Zhongyi could watch the northern barbarian army slip away under his nose, which made Emperor Xianlong find it incredible.
Moreover, although Wang Zhongyi immediately led his troops south to serve the king, there was no direct conflict with the northern barbarians from beginning to end.
Doesn't this explain something?
"Wang Zhongyi, do you know the crime?"
After a long time, Emperor Xianlong finally opened Chrysostom.
For Emperor Xianlong, he had already firmly believed that Wang Zhongyi was a traitor.
So no matter what Wang Zhongyi says, it will not change his judgment.
Even so, Emperor Xianlong still wanted to see what Wang Zhongyi would say.
Wang Zhongyi's back was soaked with cold sweat at this moment.
He knew very well what Emperor Xianlong was like.
His Majesty's heart is smaller than the nose of a needle. Although he is the emperor, he is just as vengeful as the woman with bound feet in the village.
But anyone he thinks deserves to die will definitely not be able to escape.
Wang Zhongyi had already been imprisoned once before. If the bad guy Zhao Xun hadn't peeled off the cocoon, picked up gold from the sand, and finally helped Wang Zhongyi get out of trouble, Wang Zhongyi probably wouldn't be alive today.
At that time, Wang Zhongyi was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason.
Now Wang Zhongyi is facing the same accusation, but the bad guy who helped him avert danger is no longer around him.
This made Wang Zhongyi feel very uneasy.
If the king wants his ministers to die, they must die.
If Emperor Xianlong really wanted him to die, Wang Zhongyi would have no chance of surviving.
But Wang Zhongyi was unwilling to accept it.
He really didn't do anything, so why should he be saddled with this unfounded crime?
This was obviously a deliberate arrangement by the northern barbarians, who wanted to kill him with a borrowed knife.
While Wang Zhongyi was stationed in Shuozhou, he reorganized his army and activated the bloody spirit of Shuozhou people to the greatest extent.
He made all Shuozhou men understand the responsibilities they shouldered through repeated calls.
None of the Shuozhou men were cowards. They dared to engage in one-on-one combat with the northern barbarians, and they also dared to be the first to charge into battle when the two armies faced each other.
If Wang Zhongyi dies and the imperial court sends another Jiedu envoy to Shuozhou, if this new Jiedu envoy doesn't buy Wang Zhongyi's plan and starts his own thing again, then Wang Zhongyi's efforts for so many years will be in vain.
Therefore, Wang Zhongyi could never accept his unjust death.
He wanted to express his feelings to Emperor Xianlong.
"Your Majesty, I am aware of my crime. I failed to capture the movements of the northern barbarians at the first time, and failed to stop them before they went south, which caused the northern barbarians to invade Chang'an City and disturbed the Holy Master. My crime deserves death."
"Humph, Wang Zhongyi, you are very good at avoiding the important and taking the easy."
Emperor Xianlong snorted coldly, his eyes so sharp that they could kill someone.
Emperor Xianlong was naturally not someone to be easy to deal with, so he simply said: "I see that you are clearly collaborating with the Northern Barbarians to support the bandits in order to respect themselves."
Boom.
Hearing this, Wang Zhongyi felt like his brain was exploding.
Why did His Majesty the Emperor say this? In His Majesty's mind, is Wang Zhongyi such a person?
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I have no intention of doing so."
Wang Zhongyi shouted: "I have been in Shuozhou for three years, and I have focused on training my troops, just to be able to have a hearty battle with the northern barbarians one day. Our cavalry in the Zhou Dynasty is not as good as the northern barbarians, so I ordered to raise horses and war horses. Raise war horses capable of fighting. My officers and soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty are not good at long-distance raids, so I will strengthen their daily training. Everything I do is to fight against the grassland barbarians to the greatest extent possible."
What Wang Zhongyi said was heartbreaking, but to Emperor Xianlong it sounded like sophistry.
In his heart, he had already determined that Wang Zhongyi was guilty.
Even if he didn't have a secret relationship with the prairie barbarians, he didn't respect himself as a bandit.
Just because he allowed the prairie barbarians to bypass his defense zone and go directly south was a capital crime.
The grassland barbarians were very mobile. After bypassing Shuozhou, they headed south and soon reached the vicinity of Chang'an City.
After this, the prairie barbarians did not immediately attack the city, but began to plunder near Chang'an City in Gyeonggi Province.
Where is Wang Zhongyi at this time?
If Wang Zhongyi led his troops to Chang'an King Qin to rescue him in time, Emperor Xianlong would be more tolerant of him.
But there is no problem.
Even though Wang Zhongyi led the Shuozhou Army to arrive and stationed face to face with the prairie barbarians, he did not launch a charge.
This was unacceptable to Emperor Xianlong no matter what.
Emperor Xianlong was a person who valued loyalty very much and was also a very suspicious person. He will never use anyone he considers disloyal.
What's more, he has already given Wang Zhongyi a chance.
Wang Zhongyi really disappointed him.
"Come here, push him down."
Emperor Xianlong waved his hand, and two internal guards came forward and dragged Wang Zhongyi away.
"Your Majesty, I am unjustly accused, I am unjustly accused. I have absolutely no intention of collaborating with the enemy and treason, let alone the actual fact of collaborating with the enemy and treason. Please tell me clearly!"
Emperor Xianlong was too lazy to listen and allowed Wang Zhongyi's voice to get smaller and smaller until it disappeared completely.
In the imperial city, there is a yamen for bad people.
The Yamen was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.
The enemy's retreat was a matter worthy of celebration, but none of them were happy.
This includes Zhao Xun.
The reason is simple: Wang Zhongyi was imprisoned.
As soon as the enemy troops withdrew, Emperor Xianlong summoned King Qin's general, Shuozhou Jiedushi Wang Zhongyi, into the palace.
As a result, it didn't matter that he entered the palace. Wang Zhongyi was directly imprisoned by Emperor Xianlong on the charge of collaborating with the enemy and treason.
Zhao Xun knew Wang Zhongyi quite well, and this person could be regarded as an old acquaintance of Zhao Xun.
Wang Zhongyi was framed by the Left Prime Minister and almost died.
It was Zhao Xun who peeled off the cocoon step by step and finally pulled Wang Zhongyi back from the gate of hell.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Zhao Xun is Wang Zhongyi's savior.
I thought this matter was over.
But who knew that Emperor Xianlong would start to settle old scores again.
Can't this dog emperor, who doesn't want to be the son of a man, do some human things?
Zhao Xun was numb.
Of course, he knew that being a human being was indeed a great challenge for Emperor Xianlong.
Wang Zhongyi's charges this time were exactly the same as last time, which only meant that Emperor Xianlong had not yet completely cleared up the last incident in his mind.
Perhaps in Emperor Xianlong's heart, Wang Zhongyi was an unpleasant guy.
Yes, people like this who only know how to lead troops to fight but don't know how to flatter people will not please the emperor.
But there was no need for Emperor Xianlong to deliberately suppress or even slander Wang Zhongyi, right?
Although the contact between Zhao Xun and Wang Zhongyi was not long, their understanding was still very deep.
He knew that Wang Zhongyi was a very straightforward person, and he was by no means the kind of shady old man who pretended to be a pig and eat the tiger.
Anyone who said he would rebel against Zhao Xun would be believed, but he would not believe that Wang Zhongyi would rebel against him.
Did Emperor Xianlong's head get caught in the door, or was there water?
At this moment, Zhao Xun had already greeted Emperor Xianlong and his female relatives in his heart, and he wished he could go up and slap him twice in person.
Of course, Zhao Xun knew that this was impossible, at least not yet.
Zhao Xun is not strong enough now. If he really does this, the old eunuch Zheng Jie will definitely not sit idly by.
This guy was the most vicious, but he was also very loyal to Emperor Xianlong. If Zheng Jie saw someone attacking Emperor Xianlong, he would definitely fight back immediately.
Even if Zhao Xun really wanted to slap Emperor Xianlong in the face, he would have to wait until he became strong enough.
Now he relies on the academy and the protection of the mountain chief.
But the academy and the mountain chief can't protect him forever.
In the end, people still have to rely on themselves and cannot place their hopes on others.
"Tsk tsk tsk"
Wangcai took a sip of tea and said with emotion: "This is really unpredictable. Who would have thought that General Wang Zhongyi would be imprisoned again. These big men do look good on the surface, but if they are unlucky, they will drink Cold water will clog your teeth."
"Wangcai, please stop saying a few words. Haven't you seen Ming Yun feel so uncomfortable?"
Jia Xingwen said from the side.
"Well, I get it."
Wangcai stuck out his tongue and said to himself.
"It doesn't matter."
Zhao Xun smiled bitterly and said, "Wangcai is not to blame for this matter."
For Zhao Xun, the most important thing now is how to rescue Wang Zhongyi, rather than greeting Emperor Xianlong's family.
"Where is General Wang being imprisoned now?"
As the saying goes, know yourself and the enemy and you will be victorious in any battle.
Only by fully understanding the current situation and situation can we make targeted arrangements.
"The prison of the Ministry of Punishment."
Jia Xingwen gave the answer immediately.
Zhao Xun nodded.
You can always choose to believe Jia Xingwen.
"What the Xingbu said is indeed a bit troublesome. I'm not very familiar with the Xingbu. It seems like it's impossible to resolve this matter by myself."
Zhao Xun shook his head, then turned to Wangcai and said, "Wangcai, will he agree?"
"Master Feng?"
Upon hearing this, Wangcai's head shook like a rattle.
"Master Feng probably won't be willing to take action."
There is absolutely no need for a close official like Feng Hao to offend the emperor for Wang Zhongyi.
What's more, Feng Hao has been in trouble recently.
Emperor Xianlong must have been very angry about the incident in the Western Regions. Tens of thousands of Anxi troops actually retreated to the sandbank, handing over the Anxi Protectorate to the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions.
If the situation in Chang'an had not been critical at that time, Emperor Xianlong might have directly issued an imperial edict to hold him accountable.
"How will you know if it doesn't work if you don't try?"
Zhao Xun obviously had no intention of giving up easily.
To him, Feng Hao is still a very upright and decent person.
Decentness does not mean rigidity, and decency does not mean aloofness.
In Zhao Xun's view, Feng Hao is a person who is round on the outside and square on the inside.
Feng Hao was very artistic and smooth in handling many things.
But in fact, Feng Hao also has his own principles in his heart.
This principle is that it must be good and it must be fair and just.
If anyone touches his bottom line, Feng Hao will not hesitate to retaliate against him.
Of course this matter is somewhat complicated.
Because the emperor is involved.
Emperor Xianlong's attitude was very subtle. He threw Wang Zhongyi into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment without hesitation, but did not order a joint trial by the Ministry of Punishment or even the three divisions.
It can only be said that this dog emperor is indeed very powerful, and he understands that cold treatment is the best choice at this time.
After all, Wang Zhongyi can be regarded as a famous minister. There should be many colleagues in the court, and even old friends.
These old friends will definitely try their best to help Wang Zhongyi, so they will not hesitate to admonish him.
If Emperor Xianlong chooses a joint trial by the three divisions at this time, then these close friends of Wang Zhongyi will definitely jump out to speak out for Wang Zhongyi one by one.
But Emperor Xianlong chose to deal with it coldly.
This makes these people unable to exert their strength and have nowhere to exert their strength.
It was as if he had gathered all his strength and punched the cotton.
Emperor Xianlong could even choose not to go to court.
This should be considered a routine operation for this dog emperor who does not want to be the son of a man.
As long as Emperor Xianlong chose to avoid his sharp edge, his ministers would have no good way to deal with it.
The only option was to write a memorial to defend Wang Zhongyi.
But there is also a problem, that is, Emperor Xianlong also had a backup plan.
He can choose not to watch it.
Once Emperor Xianlong chose to leave the memorials unpublished, then these memorials would be like a mud cow drowning in the sea, and it would be difficult to hear anything from them again.
Emperor Xianlong had the initiative. As long as he didn't want to see it, no one could force him to see it.
If he doesn't go to court, doesn't accept requests from ministers, and doesn't read memorials, the ministers have no other option.
The only option was to go to the Daming Palace to cry and remonstrate.
At this time, Emperor Xianlong still had a trump card, which was the imperial staff.
The imperial staff is a surefire way to deal with disobedient ministers.
The so-called imperial rod is simply a spanking.
This is very consistent with the feudal etiquette of monarch, minister, father, father and son.
The emperor can spank his ministers, the father can spank his son, and the husband can spank his wife.
To put it bluntly, it is a way to declare authority and strong status.
In this way, Emperor Xianlong could frustrate the enthusiasm of some ministers and make other ministers who wanted to speak out for Wang Zhongyi think twice before doing so.
After all, for these people, some are really Wang Zhongyi's best friends.
These people have no other intentions in speaking out for Wang Zhongyi.
As for others, it is actually just to gain a good reputation.
Good reputation is a favorite thing among officials. They cherish their reputation like a feather.
If you can win the reputation of a direct minister, they will be willing to do whatever you ask them to do.
Of course, Emperor Xianlong would not give them this opportunity.
After all, not everyone can afford the imperial staff.
Once the board is knocked down, those with weaker health will be unable to bear it.
Therefore, there are countless people who suffer from hidden diseases, and not all of them die.
If you don't even have your life, why do you need fame?
Therefore, Emperor Xianlong was able to suppress 95% of his ministers just by relying on this set of three companies.
There are only a handful of those left.
But in Zhao Xun's view, Feng Hao is considered one.
After getting along with each other for such a long time, Zhao Xun admired Feng Hao very much as a person.
So he decided to give it a try.
The bad guy's second-floor government office.
Bad handsome man Feng Hao looked very serious after sitting at the table.
"Do you want me to intercede for Wang Zhongyi?"
Feng Hao was not surprised at all that Zhao Xun made this request.
Zhao Xun is still as warm-hearted as ever and is very keen on helping others.
It doesn't matter even if this person has no interest relationship with him.
This is precisely the rarest thing in the court, and it is also what Feng Hao values most about Zhao Xun.
In a place like the imperial court, where good and bad people are mixed, the driving force is nothing more than profit.
When there are interests, there will be party struggles, and when there are parties that work together to defeat differences.
These guys are spitting foam and flying stars in the middle of the court, fighting for their heads and blood, and all they want is a profit.
And Zhao Xun is exactly the kind of person who can escape from the outside world and ignore the interests at all.
This is really valuable in the court.
"Yes, I hope you can speak for General Wang."
Zhao Xun did not hesitate and said impassionedly: "General Wang is a hero of the Great Zhou Dynasty. My subordinates once retrieved all the files about General Wang from the archives. I found that General Wang led the Shuozhou army to defeat the northern barbarians several times. , achieved a great victory. When such a brave and loyal man said that he would choose to collaborate with the enemy and treason, his subordinates did not believe him."
Feng Hao was silent, and after a long time he sighed and said: "Not only do you not believe it, I don't believe it either. But is it useful? Does anyone care? It doesn't matter whether you or I believe it or not. It doesn't matter whether the civil and military officials of the dynasty believe it or not. The key is whether your majesty believes it or not. .”
Feng Hao shook his head: "Our Majesty is the most suspicious, especially for a general like Wang Zhongyi. General Wang commands a hundred thousand Shuozhou Army, and the Shuozhou Army's combat strength is even in the entire Zhou Dynasty. The platoon is numbered. Under this situation, His Majesty will have trouble sleeping and eating unless something goes wrong. What’s more, now that the prairie barbarians are marching south and launching a massive attack?"
Feng Hao analyzed: "Ming Yun, do you still remember that I once told you that your Majesty is the most detestable kind of person."
"What kind of person?"
"A wise man."
Feng Hao paused and said, "Those who are trying to be clever and think they are smarter than Your Majesty will probably not end well."
Feng Hao has been in the officialdom for so long that he has met countless people.
Most people die, but there is one exception.
This kind of person is the so-called smart-aleck person.
Because Emperor Xianlong was also a monkey spirit, he would never allow anyone to be smarter than him.
As an emperor, he can use the power in his hands to deliberately suppress them. Most of those people have disappeared, and even if they are still in the court, their presence is extremely low.
"Then, Lord Feng, are you willing to speak out for justice?"
Zhao Xun actually understood what Feng Hao said.
But the question is, is Feng Hao willing to take action?
After such a long argument, it would be in vain if we back down in the end.
"Of course I am willing. Because of morality."
Zhao Xun couldn't help but feel warm in his heart when he heard this.
The word morality...
A good one because of the word morality.
Not because of friendship, not because of interests, but simply lending a helping hand because of morality. This is almost extremely rare in the Manchu Dynasty.
Zhao Xun couldn't even think of anyone other than Feng Hao who could do this.
What a realization this is.
"Thank you, Master Feng."
"You don't have to thank me, at least not now."
Feng Hao smiled lightly and said: "If I rescued General Wang, it would not be too late for you to thank me."
…
…
Daming Palace, Zichen Hall.
Emperor Xianlong rubbed his forehead while listening to the impassioned speech of the bad handsome man Feng Hao.
He thought that many people would offend Yan Zhijian for Wang Zhongyi's matter, but he never thought that it would be Feng Hao.
The reason is also very simple. Feng Hao is a bad commander and a minion of the emperor.
How could he, as a minion of the Emperor, offend the Emperor for the sake of a guilty minister?
Unless he doesn't want to mess around anymore.
But Feng Hao did come today.
This made Emperor Xianlong feel puzzled.
"You said Wang Zhongyi was wrongly accused?"
Emperor Xianlong's eyes were so cold that he could almost eat people.
"I feel that there are many doubts about this case and we should consider it in the long term."
Feng Hao was watertight.
"It's a good idea to take a long-term approach."
Emperor Xianlong snorted and then said: "Then tell me, how can we make a long-term plan?"
For Emperor Xianlong, bad people were very important eyes and ears. Bad guys and inside guards are his right-hand men, his eyes and ears.
With bad guys and internal guards around, Emperor Xianlong would not become deaf or blind.
This is very important.
Because what an emperor fears most is being ignored by his ministers.
Those ministers kept saying they were loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and dedicated themselves to the country, the country, and the country.
But all they really think about is how to benefit themselves and their family.
In their eyes, the emperor is just a tool and a puppet.
Emperor Xianlong was certainly not stupid, so he would never let officials fool him.
"It is appropriate for the three departments to conduct a joint trial."
"Trial by three departments..."
Emperor Xianlong pondered for a moment and slowly exhaled: "That's not a bad idea."
"What about bad people? What role should bad people play in this?"
"This depends on His Majesty's wishes."
Feng Hao said very cautiously: "Generally speaking, only major cases designated by the emperor require unscrupulous people to try. Generally, the cases are tried by the three divisions."
Emperor Xianlong nodded upon hearing this.
"Then let the three divisions review it."
Although Emperor Xianlong wanted to behead Wang Zhongyi directly at this moment, he still had to go through the necessary procedures.
Emperor Xianlong did not want to be poked in the back.
Although the emperor has many privileges, he cannot be above the law.
At least it can't be too obvious or blatant.
After all, face is still important.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Feng Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
For him, this is the best result and is completely acceptable.
Emperor Xianlong would definitely not agree to having a bad person try the case. A joint trial among the three divisions would be the most ideal result.
"Your Majesty, if there are no other ministers, I will retire."
"Back off."
Emperor Xianlong waved his hands a little tiredly.
…
…
After Feng Hao left the palace, he returned directly to the Bad People's Yamen.
The first thing he did when he returned to the Yamen was to summon Zhao Xun.
"Master Feng, what's the result?"
Zhao Xun is still very concerned about the Wang Zhongyi case.
"I just came back from the palace, and the results are quite satisfactory."
Wang Zhongyi told Zhao Xun the exact words of Emperor Xianlong.
"It's probably going to be bad if the three departments are to hold a joint trial."
Zhao Xun is not very optimistic about the so-called joint trial of the three agencies. The reason is very simple.
Whether it is the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple or Yushitai, they are all a bunch of licking dogs.
The censorship is slightly better, but these censors do not speak from a fair and impartial perspective, they are simply trying to gain a good reputation.
Through the joint trial of these three divisions, Zhao Xun can basically imagine the result.
This result would definitely satisfy Emperor Xianlong, but it might not satisfy Zhao Xun.
"Master Feng, can't you try to have a bad person take charge of this case?"
"I'm afraid not."
Feng Hao shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is also testing me to see if I am Wang Zhongyi's crony. It's not good for me to be too obvious at this time."
Zhao Xun could understand what Feng Hao meant.
At this time, Wang Zhongyi was like a bait set by Emperor Xianlong.
Whoever will rescue Wang Zhongyi will most likely be Wang Zhongyi's cronies.
Feng Hao has tried his best to help Wang Zhongyi, but it's hard to get himself involved.
"Your Majesty's thoughts are like a bottomless abyss, which is impossible to fathom."
He shook his head and said, "I'll leave it as it is, don't use too much force."
Feng Hao's words made Zhao Xun feel a little desperate.
Even a powerful official like Feng Hao had no good solution when facing the powerful Emperor Xianlong.
Because the power in his hands was given to him by Emperor Xianlong.
Emperor Xianlong could give him power, but he could also take it back.
This is the fundamental reason why Feng Hao can be extremely powerful in front of the ministers, but cannot argue with Emperor Xianlong.
That's all it can do now.
I just hope that the three-division trial can have a good outcome.
…
…
Wang Zhongyi was thrown into the cold prison of the Ministry of Punishment.
Although it is a single room, it still makes people feel extremely depressed.
This is the second time Wang Zhongyi has been thrown into prison.
The first time Wang Zhongyi thought he was going to die, but he was finally rescued by Zhao Xun.
This time is the second time. It is said that once it is strange, twice it will be familiar.
Wang Zhongyi can even know which position is more comfortable to sleep in.
This is really a great irony.
Wang Zhongyi knew that with his status, the trial would definitely not be simple. At the very least, it would be a joint trial among the three divisions.
There will basically be no results if it doesn't take more than half a month or even a month.
So there is no need to be anxious now, there is nothing you can do if you are anxious.
Wang Zhongyi has a clear conscience, so he is not worried about his life.
If the clouds clear and the moon shines, there will be good results.
…
…
"Chief, what do you mean when you say this war is not over?"
Zhongnan Mountain, Haoran Academy.
In the two-story bamboo building, Long Qingquan was waiting respectfully and asked in a deep voice.
"The barbarians in the north have retreated, the barbarians in the south have retreated, the East Yue Jiange has retreated, but what about the west?"
The mountain chief put his hands behind his back and looked westward with meaning.
"Chief Shan, do you mean the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions?"
"good."
The mountain commander paused and said: "The thirty-six countries in the Western Region have now reached Shazhou. With Shazhou's current military strength, it may be difficult to stop them."
"But now that Chang'an has its hands free, won't the imperial court send troops for reinforcements?"
"That's too late."
The mountain chief shook his head and said: "Something big will happen within ten days."
…
…
"Jian Zheng, you are such a noble person who forgets things so much."
The eunuch Zheng Jie personally visited the Qintian Prison and said meaningfully to the eunuch Yuan Tiangang: "Your Majesty has invited you to enter the palace to exorcise ghosts."
The Daming Palace has not been peaceful recently and is often haunted.
Emperor Xianlong didn't take it seriously at first. It wasn't until he saw the ghost in person that he was convinced that something evil had indeed entered the palace.
Emperor Xianlong's first reaction was to find Zheng Jie. After all, Zheng Jie was the person he trusted most and was also a super master.
But the problem is that catching ghosts is not something Zheng Jie is good at.
There are specialties in martial arts. Zheng Jie is good at fighting and proficient in martial arts.
Zheng Jie is a good person when it comes to killing people, but he is really not that good at catching ghosts.
So Zheng Jie recommended a person to Emperor Xianlong - Yuan Tiangang.
As the Supervisor of the Qintian Supervisor and the Imperial Master of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yuan Tiangang's status and seniority in the Taoist sect are quite high.
Catching ghosts is something that the Taoist sect is good at. Although Yuan Tiangang's status as a ghost hunter is a bit of a talent, but fortunately he can solve the problem neatly.
The palace being haunted was no joke, and Emperor Xianlong was in a very fragile mood recently. Zheng Jie didn't want any accidents to happen, so he notified Yuan Tiangang immediately.
Yuan Tiangang readily agreed and said he would go to catch ghosts as soon as possible.
But the fact is that Yuan Tiangang did not arrive as promised.
I am afraid that only Yuan Tiangang would dare to do this to His Majesty the Emperor.
"Mr. Zheng is joking."
Yuan Tiangang smiled slightly and said, "Pindao is waiting for someone."
"Waiting for someone?"
Zheng Jie frowned and said, "Who are you waiting for?"
"My little nephew, Qinglian."
Yuan Tiangang said calmly.
"Taoist Priest Qinglian?"
This name somewhat surprised Zheng Jie.
In terms of cultivation level, Qinglian Dao is far inferior to Yuan Tiangang.
One of them is super grade, the other is second grade.
It's a world of difference.
As for seniority, Yuan Tiangang is also above Qinglian.
What is Yuan Tiangang waiting for Qinglian to do?
As if he saw what Zheng Jie was thinking, Yuan Tiangang smiled lightly and said: "Actually, Qinglian's ability to catch ghosts is better than mine."
"What!"
Zheng Jie exclaimed: "Is it true?"
"Of course it's true. Why did Pindao lie to you?"
"In that case, what about Taoist Priest Qinglian?"
"My young nephew was recently accompanying his apprentice to study the Taoist scriptures. He said he was unavailable and asked me to wait."
“…”
Zheng Jie was completely speechless at this time.
His face turned red and he didn't know what to say.
The mighty Emperor Zhou actually had to wait for a Taoist priest?
This is really the most outrageous thing in the world and is unheard of.
"Who is his apprentice?"
Zheng Jie still refused to give up and asked directly.
"The bad guy Zhao Xun is also an old acquaintance of Mr. Zheng."
Yuan Tiangang smiled slightly.
"Of course he is also Pindao's adopted son."
Yuan Tiangang emphasized the word "adopted son" very strongly, as if he was deliberately emphasizing it.
"Zhao Xun and Zhao Mingyun?"
Zheng Jie couldn't laugh or cry for a while.
"If it's really him, it would be simple."
Zheng Jie was silent for a moment and said: "You can ask him to enter the palace together. He is a bad person and has the right to enter the palace."
"Is this okay?"
Yuan Tiangang obviously didn't expect Zheng Jie to say that. He stroked his beard and said leisurely: "Then I'll go talk to him."
…
…
Green Lotus View.
Wu Quanyi sat cross-legged, and sitting next to him was the bad guy Zhao Xun.
During these days, Zhao Xun has been meditating with Wu Quanyi to learn the true meaning of Taoism, and has gained quite a lot of experience.
I have to say that my mentor is indeed an expert in this field.
After some guidance from his mentor, Zhao Xun has gradually been able to understand the core of the true meaning of Taoism.
This is completely different from just scratching the surface.
Then suddenly I saw a black dot appear in the sky.
The black spot was getting bigger and bigger, and Zhao Xun could clearly see that it was a flying sword.
There was a person stepping on the flying sword.
This person is none other than Yuan Tiangang.
"Why is my foster father here..."
Zhao Xun murmured.
This was somewhat beyond his expectation.
Not long after, Yuan Tiangang jumped down from the flying sword and walked lightly to Wu Quanyi and Zhao Xun.
"Father."
"Uncle Master."
Zhao Xun and Wu Quanyi stood up one after another and saluted Yuan Tiangang respectively.
"No need to be polite, I came here to ask when Qinglian will enter the palace."
"Enter the palace?"
"Yes, have you forgotten that you can go into the palace to catch ghosts?"
Wu Quanyi suddenly realized.
"I would have forgotten if you didn't tell me."
He paused and then continued: "Catching ghosts is quite important. But I am halfway through the lecture to my disciple. Look at this."
"Haha I thought of this a long time ago."
Yuan Tiangang said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, you can take Zhao Xun into the palace with you."
"I have already asked Mr. Zheng what he wants, and he has agreed."
Damn it!
Countless alpacas passed through Zhao Xun's heart.
He thought to himself, you big guys have settled it in just a few words. Have you ever asked me for my opinion?
This is simply...
Of course Zhao Xun himself did not want to enter the palace.
He felt like vomiting as soon as he saw Emperor Xianlong's face.
If it weren't for rescuing Wang Zhongyi, he wouldn't even want the bad handsome man Feng Hao to plead with Emperor Xianlong.
But now he actually wants to follow his mentor into the palace to catch ghosts.
Good guy, this encounter with Emperor Xianlong is inevitable.
If Zhao Xun had the chance to choose, he would definitely refuse without hesitation.
But he knew he didn't.
So he could only reluctantly agree.
Just think of it as a visit to see your mentor’s magical powers.
After all, this is Daomen's specialty.
If Zhao Xun didn't know how to catch ghosts and send generals out, he would inevitably be laughed at.
There is no need to overwhelm oneself with too many skills. Learning a few more skills will never hurt you.
…
…
After entering the palace, Zhao Xun immediately felt the strange atmosphere.
"Why does my mentor feel so spooky?"
"It is said that the palace is haunted, how can it not be spooky?" Gu
Qinglian Taoist Priest Wu Quanyi said something that made Zhao Xun wish he was in trouble.
“Where exactly is the haunted place?”
"There are all harems, first the East Sixth Palace, then the West Sixth Palace, and finally the Zichen Palace."
The person who answered was the dead eunuch Zheng Jie.
Zhao Xun didn't have much favorable impression of Zheng Jie at the beginning, and now he hates it extremely.
In his opinion, Zheng Jie was just a licking dog of Emperor Xianlong, and he was the kind of existence with no bottom line.
Zhao Xun didn't want to see such a person for a moment.
However, due to pressure, he still had to chat and laugh with Zheng Jie, which was really disgusting.
"So, this ghost should have existed for a long time."
Wu Quanyi said calmly: "It's just that I have been suppressed by Yang Qi, so I didn't break free."
"Taoist Master Qinglian, Master Yuan, let's go to the East Sixth Palace first."
Zheng Jie didn't seem to want to make any more comments, but walked directly to the east.
Seeing that he had no choice, Zhao Xun stepped forward and followed him.
Now that I'm here, I naturally have to find out what happened.
Ghost hunting? It sounds really interesting.
…
…
The East Sixth Palace is more lively than the West Sixth Palace.
Generally speaking, the palaces in the west are mostly occupied by concubines who have fallen out of favor, or they are cold palaces. The palace to the east is where the beloved concubine lives.
This can be seen not only from the size of the palace but also from the number of palace attendants.
Under the leadership of Zheng Jie, Yuan Tiangang, Wu Quanyi, Zhao Xun and others came to Huining Palace one after another.
Huining Palace is the head of the six eastern palaces, and the earliest news of hauntings came from Huining Palace.
The owner of Huining Palace is Concubine Pan, to be precise, Concubine Pan.
Concubine Pan was very favored, and her status in the palace was second only to the queen.
Now that the position of the middle palace is hanging, Concubine Pan is the actual queen.
Having said that, it is still one level behind.
Women are very concerned about status, so Concubine Pan has always been worried about it.
She often persuaded Emperor Xianlong to appoint her as his queen. Emperor Xianlong was obedient to her in other matters, but Emperor Xianlong did not agree in this matter. He would rather the position of queen remained vacant.
Of course, these palace matters were all told by Li Taiping, the head of Yonghe County, to Zhao Xun. Zhao Xun didn't know how much of it was true and how much of it was false.
Fortunately, his adoptive father Yuan Tiangang and his mentor Wu Quanyi did not use mind-observation skills. Otherwise, if they knew that Zhao Xun was still gossiping at this moment, they would definitely vomit blood in anger.
"arrive."
Zheng Jie was very familiar with Huining Palace. He came to the gate and said quietly: "Guys, please come in. This is the residence of the harem beauties, and men are not allowed to come in. But you guys are here to catch ghosts. I have a special approval of His Majesty, but I should still be in awe. "
Zhao Yan was disgusting by Zheng Jie's face
Damn, this dead eunuch can't be personal?
Awe, awe a hammer.
If it is generally not seen that the Xiaodong people who have never seen the world may still be fooled by the emperor Xianlong, who thinks that this is the true true dragon emperor.
But in fact, how can there be any real expensive and low and low in this world.
They are made by artificial manufacturing.
People are not animals, and they do not need named blood to breed.
Just like Zhao Yan, from the most distinguished Cheng Guogong, he was born with a golden key, but he never felt secretly ecstatic because he was the Zhao family.
Because he knows that he and others are not different.
As for the emperor, the emperor is just the noble head.
Emperor Xianlong confused the ordinary people, and he wanted to get rid of Zhao Yan and wanted to eat.
Of course, Zhao Yan still shows basic respect.
The other two did not seem to have a cold.
After all, they are all in Daomen.
The core of Daomen is quiet.
What pays attention to is that the realm is with the heart, and it is ruled by inaction.
Emperor Xianlong asked them to be able to descendant to get rid of ghosts, they were already very face -saving.
"Pan Guifei has been disturbed recently, and you are a little bit."
Before entering the main hall, Zheng Jie reminded again.
Good guy, do you need to be so deliberate.
Zhao Yan called in his heart.
They will not do anything to Pan Fei, obviously a second -hand goods ...
The three followed Zheng Jie into the main hall, and immediately smelled a strong fragrance.
It is the incense.
Zhao Yan heard it immediately.
After arriving in this world, the two things that Zhao Yan could not stand in the toilet was not wifi, and the other was smoked.
No matter what fragrant, it is unable to take it alone for a day.
The smoked fragrance is so thick, this Pan Fei is still a heavy taste.
Bypassing the screen into the warm pavilion, Zhao Yan saw Pan Guifei lying on the beauty collapse at a glance.
This Pan Feisheng's body is plump, her skin is white like white Hetian jade, and there is no slightest fold. It should be twenty -six years old.
"See Pan Guifei."
Zheng Jie respectfully kneeling in front of Pan Guifei, and this move made Zhao Yan slander in his heart.
Good guy, you are also a super master master. Although he is disabled, he should be determined. How can you be so cheap?
Self -cheap people are cheap.
Even if you look down on yourself, others will look at you as a slave.
At the beginning, Zhao Yan thought that Zheng Jie was just kneeling to Emperor Xianlong, but he did not expect that he even began to kneel on the concubine.
Zhao Yan couldn't help but look at Zheng Jie a little bit.
"See Pan Guifei in poor way."
"See the mother -in -law."
Yuan Tianzhang and Wu Quanyi are just a little bit of gift.
As for Zhao Yan, he had a handiconal gift.
This is a normal etiquette in Da Zhou, which is much better than Zheng Gui.
"No gift."
Pan Guifei opened Zhu's lips, softly.
It can be seen that Pan Guifei has been very embarrassed recently and should be haunted.
From this point of view, the so -called noble and civilians are really not much different.
Is the emperor's concubine different troubles to sleep?
"Several of them should have heard of it. Recently, I don't know how it suddenly made a ghost in the palace. The bed and food that was disturbed by the palace was difficult to settle. The public is not good at catching ghosts, and then I am annoying the two Taoist captains ... and Lord Zhao. "
Fuck, Pan Guifei knows me?
Zhao Xun was shocked.
This is very inexplicable.
However, if you think about it, Emperor Xianlong often reads Pan Guifei.
After all, Pan Guifei is a concubine, and the king accompanies the king and driving is often a family. He hear that he should be more normal to evaluate the evaluation of the courtiers.
Well, it seems that Emperor Xianlong should be very good -looking. It should be described by Zhao Yan as a Yushu Lingfeng, romantic, and beautiful handsome son.
Therefore, Pan Guifei could only recognize it at the first moment when she saw Zhao Yan.
After all, there are not many handsome people like Zhao Yan.
"Pan Guifei doesn't need to worry, let the poor look at it."
The first to speak was Wu Quanyi, the chief of Qinglian Road.
Zhao Yan thought carefully that two big men did not speak without him.
"Dao Chief Please."
Wu Quanyi took the permission of Pan Guifei and walked towards the warm pavilion.
This is very important. You must know that this is the concubine palace, or the emperor's loving concubine palace.
If it was a little careless, the words were spread, and a green grassland on the top of the emperor's head was not fun.
Don't look at Qinglian Dao very casual on weekdays, but it is still very clear in these major events.
"Taoist, the first haunted is this warm pavilion."
"Pan Guifei, talk carefully when it appeared."
"The third day of this month."
"What does that ghost look like?"
"I can't see my face, wearing a white coat, walking like no feet, always floating ..."
Pan Guifei said that she shivered.
Zhao Yanxin said that good guys are like someone pretending to be a ghost.
Who is the ghost who can't see the face.
…
…
All signs showed that Pan Guifei was dressed as a ghost.
There should be Emperor Xianlong who was confused together.
The son is not weird, and it is in the real world.
Da Zhou is a world where a practitioner is in parallel with the monster.
It's not unusual to appear here.
Emperor Xianlong and Pan Guifei must know this.
That's why they feel unusually fear when they are ghosts.
Then then, I do n’t do anything wrong with it on weekdays, and I am not afraid of knocking on the door in the middle of the night.
It seems that Emperor Xianlong and Pan Guifei should have no loss.
This is also in line with their people.
Of course, these are from Zhao Yan's observation and speculation on details.
Everything has to be a ghost expert, Qinglian Dao, the longest said.
I saw Wu Quanyi observed carefully in the warm pavilion, and then said, "There is no ghost here."
Sure enough, the teacher was really an expert.
Seeing Qinglian Taoism consistent with his judgment, Zhao Yan felt very stable.
There should be no problem.
"No ghost? How could there be no ghost?"
I saw that Pan Guifei, who was originally dignified, became flowers for a while, and her face was distorted.
Seeing this and saying, Zhao Yan said, "Mother, we have to listen to professionals. We have to listen to professionals. As the so -called smelling of the Tao, the surgery industry has specialized. My master, but he is the first -class Daoist Ghost Master, he said There is no ghost, then there is no ghost. "
Zhao Yan helped Wu Quanyi platform, Wu Quanyi was naturally satisfied.
Well, it is indeed a apprentice he taught by himself, that is, dear, knowing Master.
Of course, at this moment Wu Quanyi also had to show his strength to block Pan Guifei's mouth.
Otherwise, this case cannot be handled.
"There is really no ghost here, some are just dead souls."
Well, I heard that Zhao Yanzhi almost sprayed out.
Can he not breathe in his heart, so it is difficult for him to do it.
He just held the teacher, but the teacher said so.
He wanted to know the difference between ghosts and dead souls.
"The so -called ghost generally refers to the evil ghost, Li Gui. These are transformed from the dead soul. The dead soul cannot be overwhelmed, so it has been resentful, and finally it becomes a ghost. All will be reincarnated. This is why people pray for the scriptures after people die. "
Wu Quanyi, the chief of the teacher Qinglian Road, said: "Generally speaking, the seven days after people die are a critical period. Whether the dead soul can be reincarnated depends on this period. If there is no one who is stranded in the world, no one will be overstown, it is likely to become lonely. Soul, finally transformed into a strong ghost. "
Pan Guifei was already scared.
She swallowed and said, "Then, will this dead soul really become a ghost?"
"There is such a trend."
Wu Quanyi nodded, word by word.
"Ah this."
Pan Guifei's body instinctively leaned back, and she was scared.
"What can that be good?"
"Don't panic, Poor Tao can be overwhelming for it."
Wu Quanyi said confidently.
"Okay, it's really good. There is Lao Qinglian."
Zhao Yan was full of worship in the eyes of the teacher at this moment.
The teacher is indeed his idol. In the future, he will give the teacher the nickname of a ghost.
With the ability to catch ghosts, there is no problem with this life.
"Uncle Xiao, come to help me set up fast."
This remark was that Wu Quanyi, the chief of Qinglian Road, turned to Yuan Tianzhang.
At this moment, the Da Zhou Guo did not have any shelves at all, but the first.
The long lotus road was waving with the dust while thinking about it.
"Thousands of dirty, fierce; thousands of demon kings, protecting their lives. Three realms in the Three Realms, Hell's five bitter understanding, returning to Tai Jing, quietly chanting. Sitting on the head and lonely soul. "
Later, Yuan Tianzhang took over: "The ten sides of the heavens are like sand, and the number of people will be turned into a ten -party realm. , I ca n’t recite, I do n’t have to stop, I can enjoy the blessing, hell has no bitterness, the fire becomes the Qing Department, the sword tree turns into the Zhuling Mansion, and the open door is overwhelmed. sky!"
The uncle's nephew recited the scriptures separately, and after a surpass, he saw a golden light in the palace.
Wu Quanyi's face of Qinglian Road finally showed a smile: "Okay, the soul is on the road."
Pan Guifei, who heard the paleness of this, was relieved.
If she did not see her own eyes, she would never believe that Taoist priests really have the magical power of chanting.
But now she is a five -body investment in Qinglian Taoist and admitted.
"Thank you for two, thank you two Taoist chiefs."
"Pan Guifei does not have to be more courteous. If there is no thing, we will retreat."
After coming out of Huining Palace, Zhao Yan asked curiously: "Who is that bad soul, do you dare not interested in the teacher?"
Qinglian Road said with a whitening at a glance: "For the teacher, it is overwhelming, and care about these works. Besides, there are countless injustice souls in this palace. You care about this meaning without any meaning."
Zhao Yue thought carefully about what the teacher said, and the ghost is just a small episode.
Now that the task is completed, Zhao Yan should still put more energy on the rescue of Wang Zhongyi.
This unlucky -urgent Shuozhou Jiedushi is already the "secondary palace".
It seems that this is really a crime with Emperor Xianlong. If it is released, it is best not to come to Changan.
With the heart of Emperor Xianlong, he was able to cut Wang Zhongyi in the anger.
Zhao Yan looked down on Emperor Xianlong in his heart.
The dare to dare to be in the nest. When the northern barbarians and the coalition forces of the southern barbarians were around the city, Emperor Xianlong dared to hide in the palace, and he didn't even dare to do morale.
Such an emperor is really despised.
If there is a chance, Zhao Yan must remove harm to the people.
The progress of the trial of the criminal ministry is fast.
As long as it is a case that Emperor Xianlong cares, they can always be tried at the fastest speed.
On the skill of kneeling and licking Emperor Xianlong, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs can definitely be at the forefront.
Due to the obvious tendency of Emperor Xianlong, the Ministry of Criminal Ministry also had a strong induction when he tried the case, intentionally inducing Wang Zhongyi to plead guilty.
But Wang Zhongyi also understands it very much, no matter what is guilty.
He knows that as long as he recognizes sin, it will die.
Not only will he died, even his relatives, his family loved ones will be killed.
So he won't be loose anyway.
The officials of the Ministry of Criminals were furious and immediately ordered torture.
Wang Zhongyi is not afraid.
He is also a three -product practitioner, and his foundation is very good.
As long as the other party's punishment does not penetrate his body, his body will not have irreversible injuries.
The coalition soldiers of the thirty -six kingdoms in the Western Regions have been in Shazhou City for a long time, but they have not laid off.
On the one hand, it is the tens of thousands of troops in the city, and on the other hand, they get reliable news, but they can not fight.
This belongs to the highest level in the military law of the Central Plains. If it can be achieved, why do you need to move?
After all, siege is not as simple as moving the mouth, it will bleed the dead.
When fighting in the wild, the coalition forces were relatively better.
At that time, no one will blame anyone.
But the siege is not the same.
There is always a sorting of siege. The first to siege the city and then siege are not a strength at all.
So no one wants to rush to the front to do cannon fodder.
This is also human nature.
In addition, although the thirty -six kingdoms of the Western Regions are known as the thirty -six kingdoms, in fact, a country is the size of a city in the Central Plains.
It is better to call it a city -state.
In this way, a city -state can make up more than 10,000 people.
A little less can only make up thousands of people.
That's really comparable to gold.
Dead one less, you must cherish it.
So they learned that they would take the opportunity to get the opportunity to take bleeding, they would rather wait.
In the city, Anxi Jiede made Liu Lin's expression dignified.
He had to take the responsibility of himself to bring the Anxi army away from the Western Regions, because he didn't want to watch the elite army consumed to death.
But now they have arrived in Shazhou, and the rebels of these thirty -six countries in the Western Regions are still chasing ruthlessly like a group of evil dogs.
This made Liu Lin feel difficult to accept.
He couldn't retreat anymore.
Anxi couldn't hold him back to Shazhou. If Shazhou can't hold it now, will he continue to run? Go to Liangzhou?
If so, even if the emperor did not kill him, he would live in this world without face.
"Brothers, these rebels are too bullying. We can't wait any longer, we have to die with them to the end!"
"Yes, die with them to the end!"
"Fight with them, fight!"
"Yes, kill one to earn one, kill two and make one pair."
The Anxi Army is the pride of Da Zhou, and it belongs to the pride of the people of the world. Now that they have recovered their strength, it is time to show their real technology.
They regretted these rebels.
"In He Chun, it is the messenger sent by His Royal Highness."
In the Chinese army's tent of the Thirty -Sixth Kingdoms of the Western Regions, a man with a face of the Central Plains came into the face of the Central Plains.
The man was very handsome and even put on his face.
As soon as he entered the tent, he attracted everyone's attention.
"You are finally here, we have waited for a long time."
Heyanwall stared at He Chun coldly.
"So, in your words of the Central Plains, you are rude."
"Haha, yes, I'm rude. So I will give a great gift for you in the next place."
"So where is the gift?"
Seeing He Chun's hands empty, Heyanwall asked with some unhappyly.
"Gifts are far away, near you."
He Chun pointed to the direction of the city of Sands.
"I am willing to give His Royal Highness Wei to the generals of Shazhou City."
"Huh, how do I know that what you are talking about is true. Your King Wei is the King of Wei, why do he help us fight our own people and why do he give us the sandbar?"
Heyanwall is not stupid. He immediately heard the logical question in He Chun's words, and asked in an unwillingness.
He Chun was not in a hurry. He had been prepared before he came, and he had already made all the manuscripts.
Now it is just the preparation.
"Today, Zhou Tianzi is faint, the prince has no virtue, and the king wants to replace it. But with the strength of His Royal Highness Wei, he is not enough to win the Central Plains. So he wants to get allies. Everyone is the best choice."
He Chun said without avoiding it.
The sea of King Wei Li is in Liangzhou.
The Liangzhou and Shazhou are both ends of the Hexi Corridor.
It can be said that if the support of the Thirty -Sixth Kingdoms Allied Forces in the Western Regions won the sandbar, Guzhou, and marching along the Hexi Corridor, they would be able to converge in Liangzhou.
From this point of view, Wang's Ruyi abacus does play well.
"Do you mean that King Wei wants to rebel?"
Heyanwol's eyebrows were picking.
He listened to the meaning of each other.
The King of Zhou Wei was unwilling to be a prince's station, but wanted to climb the dragon chair to cool.
But his own strength was only tens of thousands of people, and even if he raised troops to death within Liangzhou, he would make a hundred thousand troops.
Of course, this east -west coquettishly is not an opponent of Gyeonggi -do's elite force in Changan.
Therefore, King Wei must have allies, and borrowing soldiers is the best choice.
Who can King Wei borrow soldiers?
Except for the Western Alliance, there are almost no other choices.
Because the northern barbarians are already fighting Changan.
"It's not rebellious, it's the side of the Qing Dynasty."
He Chun cleared his throat and emphasized.
"In our opinion, it means one meaning."
Heyanwall said coldly: "Tell me, what can King Wei provide us?"
"Wang Wei brought tens of thousands of troops from Liangzhou, and now he is stationed in the city."
He Chun swallowed a spit, and then took over: "These Liangzhou troops vowed to be loyal to His Royal Highness Wei, and only listened to His Royal His Royal Highness. Only in the next, it was the temporary commander of this army."
"just you?"
Heyanwall stared at He Chun for a long time, and then laughed and laughed: "Are there no one in the Central Plains?"
He couldn't connect the commander of the army in front of him.
Although the other party came to cooperate with them, Heyan Volt still did not hold back the mockery.
"You Zhongyuan people are the same, hahaha."
His laughter sparked the ridicule of other barbarians.
"Yeah, the people in the Central Plains are all kinds of goods, all of them are stupid donkeys who can only play women."
"Haha, yeah, the person who is doing his own person is the best, but the outside is a mess."
He Chun's complexion became irony for a while.
He did not expect that these Western barbarians would be so rude.
Anyway, he is also the messenger sent by King Wei.
He came to Shazhou thousands of miles to listen to these Western regions laughed.
"Ahem, please let you respect a little. We came to talk to you with you. The cooperation was based on mutual respect."
Heyanwall raised his hand and signaled that the public would stop.
"Okay, talk about your thinking in detail, how to get Shazhou City."
"This is simple. The army in the city is mainly composed of the local garrison of Shazhou and the Anti Army and Liangzhou reinforcements. The remaining two troops have no defense against our Liangzhou reinforcements. It is the easy thing to catch. "
…
…
He Chun said that he was flying, and his spit was splattered.
But the commander of the 36th nation of the Western Regions, Heyanwal, sounded that it was He Chun's self -heying.
"Finished?"
"Well, it's over."
"That's it?"
"."
He Chunzhi lived embarrassed.
"Keke, do you think this plan is not reliable?"
Heyanwall sighed: "Do you think you are stupid or silly, or are the Sands garrison and the Anti Army stupid? Even if they have no preparation for you, there are still the basic defense system? How can I watch you do whatever you want in the city. "
It turned out that he was worried about this.
He Chun thought it was, since they were worried about this, there was nothing to worry about.
"Please rest assured that we have our own way, and we can guarantee that we should meet the outside world and welcome the army into the city."
He Chun knows that he doesn't need to say too much to Heyan Wall at all, just to explain to him that he can promise.
From the perspective of the current situation, Heyanwall's army is lacking. As long as he can help the Western Union forces open the gate, the army will definitely win the Shazhou City below the city.
"How can I trust you?"
Heyanwall's eyes narrowed slightly and asked very deeply.
This problem is also the most concerned issue in Heyan Vol.
The reason is very simple. What if the other party is just performing a show?
What if this is the Dazhou army discussed well?
What if they believe in it, what did the original "Allies" suddenly stabbed them when they siege?
The possibility of these is not without.
As the coalition commander of the Thirty -six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, it is necessary for Hyan Volt to be responsible for the security of this coalition.
"You're worrying too much."
Seeing Heyanwall was worried about this, He Chun smiled and laughed: "You are afraid you don't understand our Central Plains. You know that I have given you all the old. The number is not tight. But what I said is the heavenly handle. As long as there is this handle in your hands, you don't have to worry about it. "
Heyanwall's frowned: "What handle?"
These Central Plains speak around, just like their ladies.
Heyanwall is very annoyed.
"It is the position of His Royal Highness Wei, who wants to start the side of the soldiers."
He Chun laughed and laughed: "With this handle in your hands, do you think we still have retreat?"
Heyanwall was silent.
It turned out that this was this.
The Central Plains dynasty seemed to value this. The court's defense of the prince is also quite high.
If ordinary princes want to enter the Beijing Division, they have to be approved by the court, otherwise they may be charged with rebellion.
This is not playing in trouble, and may fall your head in minutes.
I have to say that in terms of power struggles, everything is common.
Heyanwall knows that the same is true in the Western Regions.
Many scholars and princes fight for power or even sword.
Finally made a very miserable end.
Wang Wei chose to take this step really has no retreat.
There was no turn in the bow, and King Wei could only go to the end.
"Okay, I believe you once. When do you do it?"
Heyanwall said seriously.
It seems that time is very important.
Only by determining time can the next plan be implemented.
"Three days later."
He Chun had been prepared for a long time.
"Okay, then do it after three days."
"It's a deal."
Shazhou City.
Nowadays, nearly 200,000 troops in the city, coupled with the original 100,000 people, and 300,000 people, squeezed the squeezing Sand City that was not very leaked.
Unlike the Central Plains, the men in the Hexi Corridor seem to have an optimistic attitude.
Even the enemy's hundreds of thousands of troops did not feel that there was any change in life around the city.
It should be eaten on the same way, and you should drink.
In the night of Shazhou, Anxi's metropolitan Liu Lin ordered hundreds of heads to slaughter hundreds of sheep to bake the three armies.
Don't look at the slaughter of hundreds of sheep, but there is not much left in each soldier's mouth, and it is more fresh and a dental sacrifice.
If you want to be full, you still bake.
When it comes to roasting, I have to talk about the roasted bakery in the Western Regions.
The roasted baked is really baked light, and it is yellow inside and outside.
Just looking at it from a distance, it is rustic.
"Well, the capital, we respect you in this glass of wine!"
"Yes, the city cares, we respect you in this glass of wine!"
"If there is no you, we can't live out of the Western Regions alive."
"Yeah, the capital, without your leadership, we have been killed by the barbarian rebels in the desert and Gobi Beach long ago."
What the generals say are truth.
At that time, the Anxi Army was very low in mood, and almost no one thought that they could successfully escape the rebels.
If it wasn't for Liu Lin, he had been carrying this tone, and his morale would have collapsed.
Sometimes it is a sigh of relief. If you can bite, everything is possible. If you can't bite it, everything will be rest.
"What do you say to do. These are what the handsome handsome should do. Come, the man dried this glass of wine!"
"Overall is good, come on, let's drink this cup!"
"Yes, we drink this cup!"
"Drink a big mouth to eat meat, this is life."
"Yes, we will be able to return to the Western Regions under the leadership of the capital."
"However, I want to go back to Chang'an. My mother -in -law and children are in Chang'an. When I just left Changan, my child couldn't speak, and now there should be half of me."
"If your special lady says these, the male Lang should have the ambition, how can you be this little daughter's mood."
"Yes, I'm happy today, don't say these bad things."
The Anxi Army is very hugged, and the other layer of the group is that it is not allowed to leave easily.
Without the first care of Liu Lin's willingness, no one can leave the Anxi Army.
In accordance with the rules of the Anxi Army, unless he was severely injured, he could no longer be able to kill the enemy, and he had to continue to be a soldier.
The scene was a little awkward for a while.
Liu Lin cleared his throat and said, "Don't say this, eat and drink."
At the same time, on the other side of Shazhou City, the residence of the Liangzhou army.
In the camp, He Chun was carefully planned for a short time.
According to his plan, he would first order the fire in Shazhou City, and then launched a raid by the cover of the fire.
At this time, the Anxi Army and the Shazhou Army who were sleeping should be rushed to assemble at this time.
This left enough time for He Chun and the Liangzhou Army.
During this time, He Chun could order the entire army to open the gate.
As long as the gate of the city is opened, the Western Union forces can enter the city smoothly.
There is no need for He Chun to worry about the next thing.
With the combat power of the western coalition forces, and the Liangzhou army against the Saudi Army and the Anxi Army, he felt that their chances of victory were at least 70 %.
Has the sandbar is of great significance to them.
Because this is the gateway to Da Zhou.
After controlling this, the Western Regions Army can continue to flow in.
With this steady stream of vital army joining, His Royal Highness Wei's plan can be achieved.
He Chun can also make great achievements, so Feng Hou Bai Xiang is not difficult.
"The luminous cup of grape wine, if you want to drink, play the pipa immediately. Don't laugh when you are lying drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times."
In the Weiwang Mansion of Liangzhou, Wang Li Li chanted a poem made by Zhao Yan, and then laughed.
His destiny changed because of this, and naturally he hated Zhao Yan.
But I have to say that Zhao Yan is still quite poetic and can make such amazing poems.
Wei Wang Shangwu, when he was in Chang'an City, often showed his strength through a ball game.
Unlike Chongwen's prince and King Qi, Wei Wang firmly believes that only the army in his hands can master his own destiny.
What is the use of so many literati?
After being rushed to Liangzhou by the Emperor Xianlong of the Father, in the eyes of the world, King Wei had lost the power of the throne.
But King Wei himself did not give up.
Because King Wei knows the sturdy customs of Liangzhou, it is a place where it is a big deal.
As long as he has the power to plant forces, it is not difficult to pull up a powerful army in a short period of time.
The purpose of cultivating the army was not to defend the border to resist the barbarians, but to give him the opportunity to compete for the supreme position.
King Wei was very ambitious, and he would never bow his head to the minister.
At less than the last moment he believed that he had a chance.
Now this opportunity will let him wait.
The western region was in place, Jiannan lost, and Changan was surrounded.
This is the rhythm of chaos in the world.
Good!
If the world is not chaotic, King Wei will have no chance at all.
But as long as the world is chaotic, the opportunity of King Wei will come.
Liangzhou is located at the east end of the Hexi Corridor. It is a must -see road to Chang'an through the Western Regions and an important node of the Silk Road.
Therefore, the best choice for King Wei to attack Chang'an to seize the throne is to form an alliance with the 36th Kingdom of the Western Regions.
The thirty -six kingdoms in the Western Regions have not been a fuel -saving lamp since ancient times. The reason why it has been surrendered in the past century is because Da Zhou is very strong.
But they are not respecting Da Zhou in their hearts.
So as long as Da Zhou shows a slightest flaw, they will show their teeth fiercely to bite.
What Wang Wei wants to do is to provide them with this opportunity as much as possible.
There are hundreds of thousands of troops in the Western Regions, while the army of King Wei is only tens of thousands.
The combination of these troops is a powerful force.
They are fully capable of attacking Chang'an in one fell swoop.
Therefore, King Wei must draw this forces to himself.
He sent his own confidant He Chun to lead the troops to reinforce Saudi.
On the one hand, it is to make a posture to respond to the imperial court's will.
On the other hand, it is to seize the sandbar in the secret layout.
He Chunming's identity is the general of the unified soldier reinforcement. And secretly his identity was an alliance with the 36th nations of the Western Regions.
He Chun brought the will of King Wei.
Wang Wei also believes that they will be aligned with themselves.
The most important thing about the Hu people in the Western Regions is the interests.
Who can provide them with benefits, they will willingly do things for whom.
To some extent, both sides can be said to be required for each.
King Wei borrowed soldiers, and the promise that could provide is wealth.
At that time, after they won the Chang'an, King Wei could ascend the throne as emperor. As for the thirty -six kingdoms of the Western Regions, the gold and silver treasures in Chang'an City could be ransacked.
In the view of King Wei, gold and silver are irrelevant.
As long as he can reach the position of the Supreme, the whole world will be him in the future, and he still cares about what gold and silver.
Thinking of the golden and brilliant Daming Palace in Chang'an City, King Wei felt that he couldn't control his emotions.
He was fantasizing that he was sitting on the dragon chair of the Purple Temple overlooking the scene of the Dazhou ministers.
He sat on the dragon chair and accepted the worship of the hundred officials, and it felt really cool.
Jiannan Road.
The southern barbarian who returned to Shu was returned to Jinguan City under the leadership of the Witch Master.
Originally, he was also worried that there would be a chase along the way.
It turns out that he thinks too much.
After more than a month of siege in Chang'an City, military and civilians in the city have long been exhausted.
They suddenly broke out and had no intention of chasing.
This gave the Nanman Army's breathing opportunity.
This is crucial.
Because they need time to arrange.
Only by holding Jianmen Kee them can they keep the portal of Shu.
Only by holding Jin Guancheng can they maximize the wealth of the tribe to the greatest extent.
Living in the depths of the vast mountains for a long time has allowed the southern barbarians to adapt to the poor life.
At first glance, it is naturally ecstatic.
But from frugality to luxury, from extravagance to frugality.
Southern barbarians can't go back.
They can never give up the wealth easily now.
As long as they keep Jiannan Road, they can always live the life of the wine and meat of wine and meat.
What else do you fight?
Even if you hit Chang'an, most of them have to divide the benefits from the Northern Barbarians and Dongyue Jiange.
It is not known how much it can be divided.
It is better to keep your own three -pointer.
At least these interests are their own.
"Depending on the order. Keep all the levels of entering Shu."
The leader of the Nanbar Witch Master knows the difficult and danger of Shu Road.
As long as you can hold these points, you will not worry about attacking the army of Gyeonggi.
At that time, the water of Bashu Sword Shengyang dragged 100,000 troops in Jianmen Pass alone.
As long as they can be made in the same way, they can be able to keep Jiannan.
What is the danger of being in peace, uu reading what he said, so he must be proud of extravagance.
Life is short, but for dozens of years.
Even if a practitioner can prolong his life, it is impossible to truly achieve eternal life.
So enjoying it in time is the most important thing.
If you don't hurry up and enjoy it, you are sorry for yourself.
Especially after this battle of Chang'an, the leader of the Nanguan Witch Master fully recognized his strength.
There are no tigers in the mountains, but monkeys are kings.
In the absence of strong enemies, the leader of the Nanguan Witch Master can still be called the king, but there is almost no possibility of winning in the face of the realm of cultivation.
