Ten years of life and death
Chapter 45 1 Sword Floating Red
45
Ever since he felt that the fire in Xuanluo Palace was not an accident, Feng Shaomin buried himself in the case all day long, checking all the big and small things that happened in the palace that year. After watching for eight days, Feng Shaomin felt that she had to find Dongfang Luo, find tell the truth.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Feng Shaomin sneaked into the palace through the gate of the palace where slops were drawn every day. She analyzed that the most likely place Dongfang Luo was in was Xuanluo Palace. Sure enough, through the thick leaves, she saw Shangguan Hai carrying food He walked out of the restored Xuanluo Palace, and the outside of the palace was tightly guarded. In order not to startle the snake, Feng Shaomin stayed in the tree until late at night, and quickly jumped on the roof when the guards were changing.
Carefully lifting the tiles on the roof, Feng Shaomin saw Dongfang Luo in the palace, kneeling on a soft couch with his eyes closed and meditating. In front of the soft couch, there were two spiritual tablets, one with words written on it, and one without. Words, Feng Shaomin was thinking about how to enter the palace, the door under the eaves opened again, through the small hole, she saw Shangguanhai entered the palace.
There was still some distance between the roof and the house, and Feng Shaomin couldn't hear the content of the conversation between the two, but the way they talked made Feng Shaomin more sure that Dongfang Luo had used a trick, and she also discovered the relationship between Dongfang Luo and Shangguanhai. Different from other ministers in the DPRK.
Dongfang Luo is the king of Luoyang, who lives in Luoyang all the year round, and Shangguanhai is from Lingnan Mansion. There is no reason for these two people to be so familiar. No, Dongfang Luo occasionally went to Lingnan Palace to live for a while, Lingnan Mansion?Could it be that they met in Lingnan Palace?In this way, Shangguan Hai is a member of Lingnan King, Lingnan King?Dongfang Luo used bitter tricks to put himself out. Could it be that the person who really wants to seize the throne is not him, but the King of Lingnan?
The conversation between the two people in the house ended, Shangguanhai handed a letter to Dongfang Luo, and then closed the door and left. Feng Shaomin no longer thought about how to enter the palace, but stayed on the roof until the next guard changing time, and left quickly Xuanluo Palace, the next day, she planned to go to the Admiral's Mansion to find out the bottom of Shangguan Hai, but before she could go out, Shangguan Hai sent him to the door by himself, and Tianxin.
Seeing Shangguanhai and Tianxin coming together, Feng Shaomin was a little surprised, but he was still a little calm in his heart. This is the best time to prove whether Shangguanhai is the King of Lingnan.
Heart!How did you come?When Tianxiang saw Tianxin, a smile appeared on her face immediately, and she walked over and pulled Tianxin to watch.
Sister Huang, I have been in the capital for a long time, and today I have the emperor's permission, and I can finally go out for a walk. We sisters haven't seen each other for three years, so we must have a good chat.
That's that, cough, what kind of palace do you live in? My princess mansion is no worse than the imperial palace. Someone go and inform the emperor that you can stay here for a while.
this?Tianxin hesitated a little, and looked at Shangguanhai, brother Shangguan, it seems that I will bother you to inform the emperor.
Brother Shangguan?Feng Shaomin and Tianxiang both questioned.
Princess, son-in-law, it’s like this. My father used to work in the Lingnan Palace. Later, I wanted to seek fame and honor my ancestors, so I left the Lingnan Palace to study in the capital. A few years ago, the prince came to the capital for marriage. Coincidentally, I have met a few times, this time the young lady is ordered by the emperor to come to the capital, I will take care of everything for the young lady.
Oh, that's how it is, Xin'er, you can stay in the mansion with peace of mind. I'm too busy on weekdays and don't have time to accompany your sister Huang. Now that you're here, you two sisters should have a good chat. Feng Shaomin is in his heart After making up her mind, she raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, she thought that as long as her heart was in her hands, Dongfang Luo and the King of Lingnan would not dare to mess around. The first thing she should do now is to find out how many people in the court are the King of Lingnan And people from Dongfangluo.
Feng Shaomin sent his subordinates to investigate for a few days, and the results shocked her. More than half of the people in the court had more or less relationship with the King of Lingnan. There are relatives of the royal family such as Wang Ge, and her name is impressively written on the last page of the roster, and it was only then that she realized that she had also been the son-in-law of the Lingnan Palace!
Looking at this thick booklet and recalling all the things that happened, Feng Shaomin made a bold idea. The final result of Dongfang Luo's plan was to make the world think that he was already a useless person who would die sooner or later. The drowning of the little prince left a vacancy for the successor to the throne. If the emperor had an accident at this time and there was no successor, it must be selected from the princes left by the previous emperor, but the princes left by the previous emperor can only be The useless Luoyang King, this is simply impossible, it is necessary to select a candidate who is outstanding in all aspects from the royal family, and this candidate, apart from the former emperor's younger brother, Lingnan King, who else can take on the role?
Feng Shaomin told Zhang Shaomin about this idea, Zhang Shaomin was startled at first, but after analyzing it, the matter was indeed as Feng Shaomin imagined, but the idea was just an idea, there was no evidence to prove that the King of Lingnan had the desire to conquer the world, besides, the emperor was probably already under control, They could not tell the emperor the truth at all.
The two thought about it for a long time, and Zhang Shaomin finally said, Brother Feng, I am afraid they will have to resort to extreme measures now.
What extraordinary means?
Brother Feng, the power of soldiers and horses in the world is in your hands. As the saying goes, if you have soldiers, you have power. Instead of being in constant fear and waiting for the day when the King of Lingnan mutinies, why don't we force the palace now and rescue the real emperor? Even if people in the world don't understand it, as long as the emperor understands it is fine.
Force the palace?Feng Shaomin looked at Zhang Shaomin in a daze, "Brother Zhang, do you know the meaning of the word forced palace?"
It is precisely because I know that I say this. I used to think that the emperor gave you the military power because you are indeed a talent, but now it seems that the emperor's doing so is indeed a clever move, because you are not only Feng Shaomin, no matter what , you will not be his threat.
After hearing Zhang Shaomin's words, Feng Shaomin smiled helplessly, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, indeed, what Zhang Shaomin said was correct, the emperor entrusted all the military power and the jade seal to her, so that he would Save him, but after all, if she wants to force the palace, she must have an army in the capital, but even if she has military power, if she wants to mobilize the army, it must be issued by the emperor's imperial decree. Without the personal soldiers brought out by herself and the method of forcing the palace, she has no chance of winning.
Brother Feng, what are you worried about?
Brother Zhang, if as you said, if we want to force the palace, we must first enter the palace, but now the entire palace is occupied by Shangguanhai's Royal Forest Army, what do we have to fight against them?It is good that I have military power, but if I transfer troops to Beijing based on my own words, I am afraid it will be counterproductive. What is the slogan for transferring troops to Beijing?Force the emperor to abdicate?The emperor has not been fatuous and incompetent during his reign these years. On the contrary, I, a minister with a foreign surname, is pampered and wants to seize the throne. Doesn't that give the King of Lingnan and the others a chance to eradicate you and me?
Then in the name of the emperor, order the generals to return to Beijing. As long as they come to Beijing, see the situation in the capital, and lobby, they will understand.
This method is good, but we don't know if these generals are sincere and only loyal to the emperor. You have seen the situation in the court. They are loyal to the emperor on the surface, but it is not that simple to check. The other one is us Without an imperial decree, there is no way to order them to return to Beijing.
imperial decree?Zhang Shaomin suddenly repeated these two words, "Brother Feng, the emperor hasn't issued an imperial decree for a long time, it's all metaphors, is there any article in it?"It stands to reason that they controlled the emperor behind their backs, so they should be able to do whatever they want, but for so long, they have not moved at all, and everything is calm.
When Zhang Shaomin said this, he seemed to remind Feng Shaomin that although the King of Lingnan controlled the emperor and also wooed some ministers in the court, the biggest reason for his delay was probably that he had not yet obtained the Chuanguo Yuxi. Even the imperial decree could not be issued. She thought of the day when the emperor asked her to return her things. She still didn't understand what it was. Now that she thought about it, she might just ask her to return the jade seal, but she didn't understand. Since Lingnan King knew that Yuxi was in How could she be so calm in her hands?And the emperor only asked her once?
Brother Zhang, help me find a carpenter with good craftsmanship immediately, and make a wooden bird as soon as possible, and make it according to the emperor's preferences.
Do wooden birds?What does this mean?
With it, you can enter the palace to meet the emperor.
This?
I'm going to do something first, and when I've found someone, I'll be notified immediately, and I'll go ahead.
Why?Brother Feng?Brother Feng?Zhang Shaomin still couldn't understand Feng Shaomin's intentions, but he believed that Feng Shaomin's actions must be reasonable, so he hurried to find a skilled carpenter.
Two days later, Feng Shaomin showed up at the gate of the palace with four people, troubled to inform the emperor, and said that I would return the emperor's things.
The guards who entered the pass ran out after a while, and said a word of invitation, Feng Shaomin led the four of them into the palace with a smile on his face. The guards led Feng Shaomin and others outside a hall, and then stood outside to invite When they went in, Feng Shaomin took a rough look at the environment inside and outside the hall, and winked at one of the people behind him.
The emperor in the hall was only accompanied by a few strange eunuchs. Seeing Feng Shaomin coming, the emperor just said put down the things and asked them to leave, but Feng Shaomin didn't want to leave so soon, so he took out a painting from a person behind him. , spread it out in front of the emperor, your lord, this is the wooden bird that you asked me to make according to the drawing book many days ago, last time you wanted to return this drawing book, but I have already handed it over to the carpenter, so I can only do it now Returning it to you has delayed the emperor's interest, and I ask the emperor to forgive me.
picture book?When did I hand over your drawing book?The emperor questioned.
When Xiang was sick, your majesty visited the mansion a few times, and you also gave this painting book to the minister, and asked the minister to make an exact copy according to the painting book, so as to please the beauties in the harem.
This?
Your Majesty, the wooden bird has been preliminarily completed, but it is still a little short of the Emperor's request to let it fly?
What's the difference?
The reason why a wooden bird can't fly is because it has no heart. It doesn't bleed like a human, but if it has human blood, it might fly.
Concubine, the emperor is still weak, and I can't stand you being so frightened. It's getting late. From my slave's point of view, the concubine should go back to the mansion earlier. Come, send the concubine, a eunuch just finished speaking, The guard at the door came in.
presumptuous!Now this palace is talking to the emperor, when will it be your turn for a servant to intervene, even if this palace kills you now, the emperor will not stop it!Feng Shaomin reprimanded the eunuch who was speaking sharply, and then pulled out the sword at the guard's waist with lightning speed, and with a swipe, a bloody mouth was drawn in the eunuch's throat, and the blood flowed like a column in an instant.
The person holding the wooden bird received Feng Shaomin's gaze, and quickly aimed the wooden bird at the place where the blood was sprayed. In an instant, a wooden bird turned bloody, and then flew up strangely. The wooden bird flew in the hall. After a circle, it slowly flew towards the outside of the hall. Everyone's eyes followed the wooden bird. Whether it was the emperor, eunuchs, or guards, no one noticed that someone present had quietly left.
Not long after, the wooden bird slowly fell down, and finally stopped on a stone bench intact. Feng Shaomin looked at the person who had left and found that he had returned, so he stepped forward to pick up the wooden bird, Your Majesty, this After the wooden bird has finished flying this time, it will not be able to fly again. If the emperor wants to watch it again, he can order his ministers to enter the palace at any time.
Okay, Feng Shaomin, I have a question, does it really need to be stained with human blood to fly?
Yes and no.
how do I say this?
A wooden bird is a wooden bird after all, it can't fly at all, but people are different, people are the smartest in the world, since he can do it, he will definitely try his best to make it fly.
I still don't understand.
Oh, Your Majesty, there will be more time to discuss the matter of the wooden bird in the future, it is getting late today, the Emperor should take a rest earlier, the minister should go back to his residence.
Well, come, send the son-in-law.
The Prime Minister's Mansion under the night seemed a little more deserted than in the past. Four guards stood guard outside Zhang Shaomin's study, guarding the door motionless. In the secret room of the study, Zhang Shaomin looked at the imperial edict brought by Feng Shaomin, I haven't realized it for a while, Brother Feng, how did you do it?
Oh, it was stolen.
stolen?
That's right, it was stolen, Feng Shaomin still smiled.
The palace is full of people from Shangguanhai, how did you do it?Zhang Shaomin still couldn't understand the imperial decree in his hand.
juggle.
Conjuring?
Well, I have already found the juggler team, but I have been suffering from no chance to enter the palace. Until the day you reminded me, I took them into the palace according to the plan, and recruited the famous gods in the world to steal the imperial decree.
That's really great. Now that we have the imperial decree, we can mobilize the army. It's not too late. I will send someone to deliver the decree immediately.
No, brother Zhang, we can't move the army at will now, the status quo is the best, our first priority now is to rescue the emperor and control the safety of the capital.
Then how do you save it?
At noon tomorrow, tell your subordinates to stand by three miles outside the palace gate and be ready to enter the palace to rescue you at any time.
OK, I'll arrange it now.
Zhang Shaomin believed Feng Shaomin's words, and left the secret room to arrange manpower. Feng Shaomin looked at the blank imperial decree with a smile on his lips. In a few days, the world will belong to the emperor again.
The coachman reined in the reins slowly, and the carriage came to a smooth stop. Shangguan Hai, who was standing on the steps by the door, stepped forward and cupped his hands, "Master, it's been a tiring journey, please. Please."
An old man got off the carriage, nodded to Shangguanhai, and walked into the admiral's mansion. Shangguanhai led the old man into a room and ordered no one to disturb him.
Shangguan, is the young lady doing well in the palace?
If you go back to the prince, the young lady no longer lives in the palace, she lives in the princess mansion.
What?Princess House?Who allowed her to leave the palace?When Lingnan King heard that Tianxin was not in the palace, he patted the table and glared.
I have neglected my duties, my lord, please calm down. I have already reported this matter to the young master, and the young master said it is all right, so I accompanied the young lady to the princess mansion.
Tomorrow, the emperor will order that Miss Zhao enter the palace, and she will not be allowed to leave the palace in the future, do you understand?
Yes, the officer understands.
Have you found Yuxi's whereabouts?
Not yet, but the official feels that it is likely to be in the hands of the son-in-law, so the official has already sent people to sneak into the princess mansion to look for it.
Be quick, the king has already discussed with the generals about the matter of raising troops, and it will be successful only when Yuxi is in hand.
My lord, I have a trick to force the son-in-law to hand over the jade seal.
oh?explain.
As long as Princess Tianxiang is in our hands, the son-in-law will definitely commit a crime.
this?The King of Lingnan stroked his beard, weighed it for a moment, and said, let the lady live in the princess mansion tomorrow, the lady doesn't know about us, I'm afraid a Tianxiang can't force the concubine to hand over the jade seal, plus Xin'er, hmph, this king If you don't believe the son-in-law, you will commit a crime!
My lord, no way, how can Miss Xin'er be our pawn?
Don't you understand what it means for Miss to live in the Princess Mansion, this king will cut her off this time, and also want to see if Feng Shaomin has affection for her.
The subordinate understands, is the prince living in the subordinate's mansion these days?
The king will not be here anymore. If there is anything, the king will order someone to come to you. It's getting late. You should go and take care of tomorrow's affairs first. The king is gone.
Yes, I will send you off to the prince respectfully.
In the early morning political meeting hall, civil and military officials whispered to each other from time to time, discussing today's affairs. When Feng Shaomin appeared in the hall with the imperial decree, everyone quieted down and walked into the crowd. Feng Shaomin looked at the civil and military officials and said The imperial decree in his hand was held above his head, and he said to all adults, for this imperial decree, please kneel down to accept the decree.
Long live my emperor long live long live long live.
In accordance with the fate of heaven, the emperor ordered that Shangguan Hai, the admiral of the nine gates, was proud of his soldiers and falsely preached the imperial decree. Today, he will be removed from the post of admiral of the nine gates, and will be put in prison for my own trial. The vacant post of admiral will be temporarily in charge of the prime minister, Zhang Shaomin. .
As soon as Feng Shaomin's imperial decree was read, the crowd below became restless. Shangguan Hai alone knelt on the ground. He looked at the imperial decree in Feng Shaomin's hand and shook his head in disbelief.
Lord Shangguan, are you still not accepting the order?Feng Shaomin took a step closer to Shangguanhai, and made the imperial decree as a delivery certificate.
Mr. Feng, do you have any evidence for your claim that the lower official passed on the imperial decree?
Lord Shangguan, the person who said that you falsely preached the imperial decree was the emperor, not the official. This official is only following the order to do things. Come here, take off the official hat and court clothes of Lord Shangguan, and put him in the prison!
wait!Shangguan Hai broke away from Feng Shaomin's bodyguard and stood up. Everyone knows that the emperor is sick now and will not go to court for a long time, and this imperial decree was issued suddenly. How do I know, my lord, if you want to eradicate the subordinate officials and pass on the imperial decree? !
presumptuous!Lord Shangguan, you are an official of the imperial court, you should know the consequences of this false imperial decree, I can't do it, if you don't believe it, you will know it after reading the imperial decree, if you still don't believe it, then you have to invite the emperor, but when the time comes, please This will not be the case when the emperor comes.
No matter what, I have to see the emperor today. Shangguan Hai passed through the crowd and was about to leave the Palace of Political Affairs. The guards guarding the palace saw Shangguan Hai's eyes and wanted to surround the entire Palace of Political Affairs.
Feng Shaomin had long expected that Shangguan Hai would disobey the order, but she was not afraid of Shangguan Hai leaving, because she never thought of letting Shangguan Hai leave the Palace of Political Affairs alive. Mr. Shangguan, are you going to disrespect the order?
Hmph, the lower officials only believe what the emperor himself says.
My lords, Mr. Shangguan disobeyed the order and disrespected him, and he repeatedly contradicted me. Now that the gold medal was bestowed by the previous emperor, you can cut it off first and play it later. Today, I beheaded Mr. Shangguan in front of all civil and military officials.
After Feng Shaomin finished speaking, he drew out the sword at the waist of the guard beside him and stabbed at him. Seeing the danger was approaching, Shangguan Hai also drew the sword at the guard's waist to fight. It's a pity that although he is not weak in martial arts, compared with Feng Shaomin After a while, Feng Shaomin knocked down the sword in his hand and pressed it against his neck. The guards guarding the temple wanted to move. You look at me, I look at you, but in the end they didn’t move. .
The winner is king, the loser is bandit, kill or cut, do as you like!
Mr. Shangguan, you are a man who can be made, but it is a pity that you followed the wrong master, Feng Shaomin is telling the truth.
Hmph, Feng Shaomin, I have nothing to say when I am defeated by you, I just hate Zhang Yi, who was defeated by you, and I am also defeated by you, you'd better treat Miss Tianxin with care, otherwise If you don't, even if I become a ghost, I will disturb your peace every night.
Shangguanhai looked at Feng Shaomin complaining bitterly, and had no intention of living any longer. He put his head against the sword on his neck, and fell straight down. The hot blood from his neck seeped into the cold ground. Close it, it's full of resentment.
Dreaming back in the middle of the night, Feng Shaomin was startled awake. It was already early winter outside, and even inside the house, he could still feel the slightest chill, but Feng Shaomin's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat. Get up, the candle outside the tent is still burning slowly.
Shaomin, what did you dream about?Scared like this?Tianxiang raised her hand to wipe the sweat from Feng Shaomin's forehead, and asked with concern.
I, I dreamed about Xin'er, Feng Shaomin answered Tian Xiang's words, and got out of bed to get dressed, now she desperately wants to see Xin'er.
Shaomin, where are you going?Shaomin?Tianxiang was a little worried about Feng Shaomin's move, and immediately got out of bed, got dressed and followed Feng Shaomin.
When Feng Shaomin came to the east hall, he went directly to Tianxin's room. When he entered the room and saw the empty bed, Feng Shaomin shouted nervously, Xin'er, where are you, Xin'er.
Feng Shaomin was worried about Tianxin, and Tianxiang was worried about her. Tianxiang had never heard of someone else's name appearing in Feng Shaomin's dream. This was the first time, and it was also the one that made her feel distressed the most.
Feng Shaomin called Tianxin's name while searching, and Tianxiang followed her silently. He searched the entire east hall, but couldn't find Tianxin's figure. When Feng Shaomin was about to go crazy, a maid came in, and Feng Shaomin grabbed her. The maid's arm asked where Tianxin was, and the maid said that Princess Tianxin was burning paper in the garden, so she came back to pick up a cloak for fear that she would freeze.
Before the maid finished speaking, Feng Shaomin went straight to the garden. When he saw Tianxin's person, Feng Shaomin hugged Tianxin tightly into his arms without saying a word, but Tianxin saw the person next to him. Tianxiang and the maid tried their best to break free from Feng Shaomin's embrace.
Xin'er, what are you doing in the garden?Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night?Tianxiang asked.
I?I?Tianxin distanced himself from Feng Shaomin, today is the first seven days of Shangguan elder brother, I want to burn some paper for him, it is inconvenient to be in the mansion during the day, so I want to wait until everyone is asleep before burning.
Okay, I'll be here with you, Feng Shaomin took the cloak from the maid and put it on Tianxin's back, then bent down and picked up the paper money and threw it into the basin.
No, you don't have to burn paper money for him, Tianxin blocked Feng Shaomin's hand.
Well?Okay, I'll stay here with you. Feng Shaomin naturally understands what Tianxin said. She, a murderer, has no right to burn paper for the dead.
When she returned to the room, Feng Shaomin's hands were already cold, she sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, Tianxiang sat down next to her, and holding her hand, Fang felt strangely cold, Shaomin, yours Why are hands so cold?
my hand?Feng Shaomin put his hands in front of his eyes and looked at Tianxiang, "Xiang'er, I don't want to kill anyone, but my hands are covered with blood.
Shao Min, Shangguan Hai deserves to die, so don't blame yourself so much, okay?
I always think of the look in his eyes when he died, very unwilling.
Tomorrow we invite the mage to do a ceremony to save him.
I also dreamed of Xin'er, a large expanse of snow, stained red with blood, she was lying in the blood, with a sword stuck in her heart, I wanted to save her, but no matter how hard I struggled, it was useless, I just watched My heart fell before my eyes.
It was just a dream, Shaomin, Feng Shaomin became more and more excited as he spoke, Tianxiang hugged her tightly in his arms to comfort her, she could feel Feng Shaomin's trembling body, which dispelled what she wanted to ask at first.
Feng Shaomin was still in Tianxiang's arms, but she still had lingering fears. In the dream just now, she did dream of Shangguanhai's unwilling eyes, and also dreamed of Tianxin being stabbed, but she didn't tell Tianxiang that she was in the dream. The person who stabbed Tianxin down was her.
The doctors of the Imperial Hospital were busy going back and forth in and out of the palace. They were all looking for an antidote for the emperor's ecstasy. Since entering the palace that day, they have not found Dongfang Luo, and even the antidote has disappeared. The emperor Good times and bad times are worrying.
After the early court, Feng and Zhang accompanied the emperor to discuss matters in the study. The important national affairs had been discussed in the previous court. What they are talking about now is whether to order the generals to return to Beijing. After all, there are still many people in the court who belong to the King of Lingnan , so it is inconvenient to speak in the hall, the emperor sat at the table and listened to the conversation between the two, expressionless.
Brother Feng, I have ordered people to bring the family members of several generals into the capital, and they will arrive in the capital in a few days. Shouldn't we send people to issue an edict next?
Well, once their family members are arranged in the capital, they should be ordered to return to Beijing immediately, and even the King of Lingnan should be ordered back.
Brother Feng, is it too dangerous to order them back to the capital together? We are not sure if they are united.
Don't be afraid, they all have hostages in our hands, even if they don't care about the safety of the hostages, we don't have to be afraid, I have already suspended the customs clearance documents in the name of the emperor and sent them to the state, and borrowed [-] elite soldiers. After passing the test, the reason why the King of Lingnan did not take action is because he wanted to gain the throne in a straightforward manner. The so-called people who win the hearts of the people win the world. He understands this very well, but it is precisely because of this that he gave us time to fight back.
That's good, now that everything is arranged, the only thing left is to find an antidote for the emperor, Zhang Shaomin glanced at the emperor and sighed.
Feng Shaomin also took a look at the emperor, and then walked slowly with his hands behind his back. How many people were killed by that chair, but there are still so many people who don't understand, how much power you have, how much power you have Dangerous, life is only a few dozen years, so why bother to bind yourself like this.
Oh, this is human beings, and human desires are always endless.
By the way, Brother Zhang, is there any news about Mrs. Sister-in-law recently?
Zhang Shaomin shook his head, no matter if he didn't mention it, but he got angry. It's been nearly three years, and there is no news.
Didn't Wang Gu'er show his face when he returned to the capital?Impossible, as far as she knows, Dongfang Luo is still hiding in the capital, could it be that Wang Guer is also hiding, the most dangerous place is the safest, and the most dangerous place is Ge Lao Mansion other than Dongfang Luo's house Thinking of this, she immediately reminded Zhang Shaomin, Brother Zhang, I seem to have seen a woman who looks like Mrs. Sister-in-law appearing near Ge Lao Mansion recently, look, should you go and see?
Zhang Shaomin was taken aback. Have you really seen it?
It seems to be, but not sure.
I know what to do, so I will go ahead and say goodbye. Zhang Shaomin took a deep breath and walked away quickly.
Watching him leave, Feng Shaomin grinned, as long as she can find Wang Gu'er, she is not afraid that she will not find Dongfang Luo.
Because Feng Shaomin was always awakened by nightmares, Tianxiang didn't care about the weather. She went to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense in light snow, hoping not to disturb them again. Tianxin went.
After the two of them burned the incense, they saw that the snow outside seemed to be falling heavily, so they wanted to stay in the temple for a while, and then return to the mansion when the snow was lighter. The abbot prepared a meditation room for them, and the two sat down and drank Chatting with warm tea, she felt that it was almost time. Tianxiang got up and pushed the window to look. It was no longer snowing outside. She was a little angry and spit casually, what did these people do? Tell us to call us when the snow stops Yes, it's good now, the figures are gone.
Maybe they had something to do and walked away, Tian Xin also got up and came to the window.
Then let's go, Shaomin should go back home.
Ok.
Hey, it's too quiet in this temple. It wasn't like this just now. Where did everyone go?Tianxiang looked around and was a little puzzled.
Two princesses, you two have finally come out, said a monk.
Hey, little master, where are the bearers in my palace?
bearers?Oh, princess, I'm afraid you won't be able to go back today.
oh?why?
Brothers, come out, the monk yelled towards the back wall, and twenty or so people with sharp swords stood up, and the swords were all stained with blood, and they were still dripping down.
Seeing this scene, Tianxiang felt that something was wrong, so she pulled Tianxin behind her and told her, "Xin'er, run away as soon as you have a chance."
Miss Huang, who are they?
If the two princesses want to know who we are, go to the Underworld and ask the late emperor, brothers, come on!The monk swung his sword, and twenty or so people charged at Tianxiang who was unarmed.
Xin'er, I'm blocking, you run!Tianxiang pushed Tianxin back, told her to run quickly, and stepped forward to meet the battle.
Neither of you can escape!The monk took Tianxin away from Tianxiang's side without any effort, and quickly ran towards the back mountain.
Miss Huang, save me!Tianxin struggled in horror, was knocked out by the monk's palm, carried it on his shoulder and ran away, but the unarmed Tianxiang couldn't beat twenty or so people at all, so he could only helplessly shout her name to see her being taken away .
At this critical moment, Yijian Piaohong appeared. He threw Tianxiang a sword and asked her to save others first, but Tianxiang was afraid that he would not be able to handle it alone, so she didn't leave right away. , then shouted loudly to smell the smell, you hurry to save people, I will be distracted if you are here.
Brother Jian, there are too many of them, be careful, Tianxiang felt that what he said was right, so she pushed out of the encirclement desperately, and chased along the mountain road. There was still a snowy bluestone slab. And a series of footprints, she picked up Tianxin's cloak and ran along the footprints, and finally caught up.
The monk put Tianxin next to a dead tree, tore Tianxin's clothes, and Tianxin fell to the ground motionless, which made Tianxiang very annoyed. She held the sword and swung it over. The monk didn't expect to catch up so quickly. , and ruined his good deed, picked up the sword that was thrown aside and swung it up.
Besides, Yijian Piaohong, he slowly gained the upper hand, and his back, arms, and legs were all wounded by the sword. In the end, more than twenty swords were placed between his neck and legs, and the sword in his hand was also beaten. Falling to the ground, my sword fluttering red is defeated by your hands today, you want to kill or cut, whatever you want.
Okay, yes, it really is a man, someone outside the crowd applauded, everyone heard the voice and moved out of the way.
It's you!Yijian Piaohong also looked at the speaker, and when he saw the person clearly, a sword had pierced his heart.
The person holding the sword looked at Yijian Piaohong for a moment, then pulled the sword in his hand away from Yijian Piaohong's heart. In an instant, blood gushed out like a flood.
I didn't want to kill you, but you ruined my plan. As I said, I will never let anyone hinder me again!
You, smell smell, smell smell, Yijian Piaohong murmured these words, and slowly fell to the ground, he looked at the sky, and remembered all the past events between him and Tianxiang, he seemed to hear Tianxiang calling him Brother Jian , Brother Jian.
Smelly, smelly.
It was Brother Jian's voice, Brother Jian, did the monk run away?Tianxiang stroked her still dizzy head and subconsciously answered, when she sat up from the cold ground with difficulty, she didn't see the shadow of Yijian fluttering red, it was obviously Brother Jian's voice, where did he go?The damn stinky monk actually shot in the back and stunned me with drugs, ah, my head is so dizzy.
Brother Jian, where are you?Tianxiang propped herself up with her sword, stood up and looked around, making sure that there was no shadow of a sword fluttering red, but under a dead tree, she saw Tianxin lying there in disheveled clothes. Seeing this, Tianxiang immediately woke up and rushed over Helping Tianxin up, she looked at Tianxin's torn clothes and naked body, and she was stunned. She didn't dare to think about what happened, so she immediately took off her clothes, wrapped Tianxin up, and carried her away .
There is only one way out of the temple from the back mountain, so Tianxiang still saw the sword fluttering red. At this time, the sword fluttered red, his body was already stiff, and his blood had also solidified. His left arm was chopped off by a sharp weapon. The trace, Tianxiang was one step away, just took a look, then his eyes went dark, and together with Tianxin on his back, he fell to the ground hard.
In the side hall of the Princess Mansion, a mourning hall was set up. A sword fluttering red lay on the cold board and fell asleep forever. Feng Shaomin stood by and watched Zhang Shaomin examine the wound carefully, hoping to find some clues. After a long time Zhang Shaomin looked up at Feng Shaomin and shook his head. The wounds on his body were just ordinary sword wounds. The fatal wound was the sword in the heart. Your left arm was chopped off. It was probably his left hand at that time. hold something.
Feng Shaomin closed his eyes and listened to Zhang Shaomin's words, and frowned tightly. Is there anyone alive in Xiangguo Temple?
Zhang Shaomin shook his head again, and covered Yijian Piaohong's body with a piece of cloth. Judging from the evidence left at the scene, Xiangguo Temple may have been occupied by gangsters, and they were probably waiting for Tianxiang to appear.
In your opinion, who do you think the murderer will be?
On the cusp of this storm, who wants to kill Tianxiang, I think you should guess it.
How do you explain that day?
Maybe they didn't expect that Princess Tianxin also went there that day, so the last one to die was Brother Piaohong.
I don't care who the murderer is, I just want a result, find this person for me, Tianxiang appeared in the mourning hall silently, her eyes were red and swollen, she threw a portrait to Zhang Shaomin, with trembling hands, she lifted the white cloth, Feng Shaomin stepped forward One step, stop her hand, Xiang'er, promise me, be strong.
Feng Shaomin's kind words made Tianxiang red-eyed again, don't worry, I will be strong, and I will avenge Brother Jian.
Isn't the princess fine during the day, why did she have a fever at night?
In the afternoon, the princess had been standing under the eaves, saying that she was enjoying the snow, but the servants couldn't persuade her, so they could only let her go, for fear that she would catch a cold and develop a fever.
Myolie, bring me my cloak, I'll go see her.
Princess, you are not feeling well by yourself, it’s fine for the old servant to serve you, besides, the son-in-law will not be ready for a while.
Ever since he felt that the fire in Xuanluo Palace was not an accident, Feng Shaomin buried himself in the case all day long, checking all the big and small things that happened in the palace that year. After watching for eight days, Feng Shaomin felt that she had to find Dongfang Luo, find tell the truth.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Feng Shaomin sneaked into the palace through the gate of the palace where slops were drawn every day. She analyzed that the most likely place Dongfang Luo was in was Xuanluo Palace. Sure enough, through the thick leaves, she saw Shangguan Hai carrying food He walked out of the restored Xuanluo Palace, and the outside of the palace was tightly guarded. In order not to startle the snake, Feng Shaomin stayed in the tree until late at night, and quickly jumped on the roof when the guards were changing.
Carefully lifting the tiles on the roof, Feng Shaomin saw Dongfang Luo in the palace, kneeling on a soft couch with his eyes closed and meditating. In front of the soft couch, there were two spiritual tablets, one with words written on it, and one without. Words, Feng Shaomin was thinking about how to enter the palace, the door under the eaves opened again, through the small hole, she saw Shangguanhai entered the palace.
There was still some distance between the roof and the house, and Feng Shaomin couldn't hear the content of the conversation between the two, but the way they talked made Feng Shaomin more sure that Dongfang Luo had used a trick, and she also discovered the relationship between Dongfang Luo and Shangguanhai. Different from other ministers in the DPRK.
Dongfang Luo is the king of Luoyang, who lives in Luoyang all the year round, and Shangguanhai is from Lingnan Mansion. There is no reason for these two people to be so familiar. No, Dongfang Luo occasionally went to Lingnan Palace to live for a while, Lingnan Mansion?Could it be that they met in Lingnan Palace?In this way, Shangguan Hai is a member of Lingnan King, Lingnan King?Dongfang Luo used bitter tricks to put himself out. Could it be that the person who really wants to seize the throne is not him, but the King of Lingnan?
The conversation between the two people in the house ended, Shangguanhai handed a letter to Dongfang Luo, and then closed the door and left. Feng Shaomin no longer thought about how to enter the palace, but stayed on the roof until the next guard changing time, and left quickly Xuanluo Palace, the next day, she planned to go to the Admiral's Mansion to find out the bottom of Shangguan Hai, but before she could go out, Shangguan Hai sent him to the door by himself, and Tianxin.
Seeing Shangguanhai and Tianxin coming together, Feng Shaomin was a little surprised, but he was still a little calm in his heart. This is the best time to prove whether Shangguanhai is the King of Lingnan.
Heart!How did you come?When Tianxiang saw Tianxin, a smile appeared on her face immediately, and she walked over and pulled Tianxin to watch.
Sister Huang, I have been in the capital for a long time, and today I have the emperor's permission, and I can finally go out for a walk. We sisters haven't seen each other for three years, so we must have a good chat.
That's that, cough, what kind of palace do you live in? My princess mansion is no worse than the imperial palace. Someone go and inform the emperor that you can stay here for a while.
this?Tianxin hesitated a little, and looked at Shangguanhai, brother Shangguan, it seems that I will bother you to inform the emperor.
Brother Shangguan?Feng Shaomin and Tianxiang both questioned.
Princess, son-in-law, it’s like this. My father used to work in the Lingnan Palace. Later, I wanted to seek fame and honor my ancestors, so I left the Lingnan Palace to study in the capital. A few years ago, the prince came to the capital for marriage. Coincidentally, I have met a few times, this time the young lady is ordered by the emperor to come to the capital, I will take care of everything for the young lady.
Oh, that's how it is, Xin'er, you can stay in the mansion with peace of mind. I'm too busy on weekdays and don't have time to accompany your sister Huang. Now that you're here, you two sisters should have a good chat. Feng Shaomin is in his heart After making up her mind, she raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, she thought that as long as her heart was in her hands, Dongfang Luo and the King of Lingnan would not dare to mess around. The first thing she should do now is to find out how many people in the court are the King of Lingnan And people from Dongfangluo.
Feng Shaomin sent his subordinates to investigate for a few days, and the results shocked her. More than half of the people in the court had more or less relationship with the King of Lingnan. There are relatives of the royal family such as Wang Ge, and her name is impressively written on the last page of the roster, and it was only then that she realized that she had also been the son-in-law of the Lingnan Palace!
Looking at this thick booklet and recalling all the things that happened, Feng Shaomin made a bold idea. The final result of Dongfang Luo's plan was to make the world think that he was already a useless person who would die sooner or later. The drowning of the little prince left a vacancy for the successor to the throne. If the emperor had an accident at this time and there was no successor, it must be selected from the princes left by the previous emperor, but the princes left by the previous emperor can only be The useless Luoyang King, this is simply impossible, it is necessary to select a candidate who is outstanding in all aspects from the royal family, and this candidate, apart from the former emperor's younger brother, Lingnan King, who else can take on the role?
Feng Shaomin told Zhang Shaomin about this idea, Zhang Shaomin was startled at first, but after analyzing it, the matter was indeed as Feng Shaomin imagined, but the idea was just an idea, there was no evidence to prove that the King of Lingnan had the desire to conquer the world, besides, the emperor was probably already under control, They could not tell the emperor the truth at all.
The two thought about it for a long time, and Zhang Shaomin finally said, Brother Feng, I am afraid they will have to resort to extreme measures now.
What extraordinary means?
Brother Feng, the power of soldiers and horses in the world is in your hands. As the saying goes, if you have soldiers, you have power. Instead of being in constant fear and waiting for the day when the King of Lingnan mutinies, why don't we force the palace now and rescue the real emperor? Even if people in the world don't understand it, as long as the emperor understands it is fine.
Force the palace?Feng Shaomin looked at Zhang Shaomin in a daze, "Brother Zhang, do you know the meaning of the word forced palace?"
It is precisely because I know that I say this. I used to think that the emperor gave you the military power because you are indeed a talent, but now it seems that the emperor's doing so is indeed a clever move, because you are not only Feng Shaomin, no matter what , you will not be his threat.
After hearing Zhang Shaomin's words, Feng Shaomin smiled helplessly, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, indeed, what Zhang Shaomin said was correct, the emperor entrusted all the military power and the jade seal to her, so that he would Save him, but after all, if she wants to force the palace, she must have an army in the capital, but even if she has military power, if she wants to mobilize the army, it must be issued by the emperor's imperial decree. Without the personal soldiers brought out by herself and the method of forcing the palace, she has no chance of winning.
Brother Feng, what are you worried about?
Brother Zhang, if as you said, if we want to force the palace, we must first enter the palace, but now the entire palace is occupied by Shangguanhai's Royal Forest Army, what do we have to fight against them?It is good that I have military power, but if I transfer troops to Beijing based on my own words, I am afraid it will be counterproductive. What is the slogan for transferring troops to Beijing?Force the emperor to abdicate?The emperor has not been fatuous and incompetent during his reign these years. On the contrary, I, a minister with a foreign surname, is pampered and wants to seize the throne. Doesn't that give the King of Lingnan and the others a chance to eradicate you and me?
Then in the name of the emperor, order the generals to return to Beijing. As long as they come to Beijing, see the situation in the capital, and lobby, they will understand.
This method is good, but we don't know if these generals are sincere and only loyal to the emperor. You have seen the situation in the court. They are loyal to the emperor on the surface, but it is not that simple to check. The other one is us Without an imperial decree, there is no way to order them to return to Beijing.
imperial decree?Zhang Shaomin suddenly repeated these two words, "Brother Feng, the emperor hasn't issued an imperial decree for a long time, it's all metaphors, is there any article in it?"It stands to reason that they controlled the emperor behind their backs, so they should be able to do whatever they want, but for so long, they have not moved at all, and everything is calm.
When Zhang Shaomin said this, he seemed to remind Feng Shaomin that although the King of Lingnan controlled the emperor and also wooed some ministers in the court, the biggest reason for his delay was probably that he had not yet obtained the Chuanguo Yuxi. Even the imperial decree could not be issued. She thought of the day when the emperor asked her to return her things. She still didn't understand what it was. Now that she thought about it, she might just ask her to return the jade seal, but she didn't understand. Since Lingnan King knew that Yuxi was in How could she be so calm in her hands?And the emperor only asked her once?
Brother Zhang, help me find a carpenter with good craftsmanship immediately, and make a wooden bird as soon as possible, and make it according to the emperor's preferences.
Do wooden birds?What does this mean?
With it, you can enter the palace to meet the emperor.
This?
I'm going to do something first, and when I've found someone, I'll be notified immediately, and I'll go ahead.
Why?Brother Feng?Brother Feng?Zhang Shaomin still couldn't understand Feng Shaomin's intentions, but he believed that Feng Shaomin's actions must be reasonable, so he hurried to find a skilled carpenter.
Two days later, Feng Shaomin showed up at the gate of the palace with four people, troubled to inform the emperor, and said that I would return the emperor's things.
The guards who entered the pass ran out after a while, and said a word of invitation, Feng Shaomin led the four of them into the palace with a smile on his face. The guards led Feng Shaomin and others outside a hall, and then stood outside to invite When they went in, Feng Shaomin took a rough look at the environment inside and outside the hall, and winked at one of the people behind him.
The emperor in the hall was only accompanied by a few strange eunuchs. Seeing Feng Shaomin coming, the emperor just said put down the things and asked them to leave, but Feng Shaomin didn't want to leave so soon, so he took out a painting from a person behind him. , spread it out in front of the emperor, your lord, this is the wooden bird that you asked me to make according to the drawing book many days ago, last time you wanted to return this drawing book, but I have already handed it over to the carpenter, so I can only do it now Returning it to you has delayed the emperor's interest, and I ask the emperor to forgive me.
picture book?When did I hand over your drawing book?The emperor questioned.
When Xiang was sick, your majesty visited the mansion a few times, and you also gave this painting book to the minister, and asked the minister to make an exact copy according to the painting book, so as to please the beauties in the harem.
This?
Your Majesty, the wooden bird has been preliminarily completed, but it is still a little short of the Emperor's request to let it fly?
What's the difference?
The reason why a wooden bird can't fly is because it has no heart. It doesn't bleed like a human, but if it has human blood, it might fly.
Concubine, the emperor is still weak, and I can't stand you being so frightened. It's getting late. From my slave's point of view, the concubine should go back to the mansion earlier. Come, send the concubine, a eunuch just finished speaking, The guard at the door came in.
presumptuous!Now this palace is talking to the emperor, when will it be your turn for a servant to intervene, even if this palace kills you now, the emperor will not stop it!Feng Shaomin reprimanded the eunuch who was speaking sharply, and then pulled out the sword at the guard's waist with lightning speed, and with a swipe, a bloody mouth was drawn in the eunuch's throat, and the blood flowed like a column in an instant.
The person holding the wooden bird received Feng Shaomin's gaze, and quickly aimed the wooden bird at the place where the blood was sprayed. In an instant, a wooden bird turned bloody, and then flew up strangely. The wooden bird flew in the hall. After a circle, it slowly flew towards the outside of the hall. Everyone's eyes followed the wooden bird. Whether it was the emperor, eunuchs, or guards, no one noticed that someone present had quietly left.
Not long after, the wooden bird slowly fell down, and finally stopped on a stone bench intact. Feng Shaomin looked at the person who had left and found that he had returned, so he stepped forward to pick up the wooden bird, Your Majesty, this After the wooden bird has finished flying this time, it will not be able to fly again. If the emperor wants to watch it again, he can order his ministers to enter the palace at any time.
Okay, Feng Shaomin, I have a question, does it really need to be stained with human blood to fly?
Yes and no.
how do I say this?
A wooden bird is a wooden bird after all, it can't fly at all, but people are different, people are the smartest in the world, since he can do it, he will definitely try his best to make it fly.
I still don't understand.
Oh, Your Majesty, there will be more time to discuss the matter of the wooden bird in the future, it is getting late today, the Emperor should take a rest earlier, the minister should go back to his residence.
Well, come, send the son-in-law.
The Prime Minister's Mansion under the night seemed a little more deserted than in the past. Four guards stood guard outside Zhang Shaomin's study, guarding the door motionless. In the secret room of the study, Zhang Shaomin looked at the imperial edict brought by Feng Shaomin, I haven't realized it for a while, Brother Feng, how did you do it?
Oh, it was stolen.
stolen?
That's right, it was stolen, Feng Shaomin still smiled.
The palace is full of people from Shangguanhai, how did you do it?Zhang Shaomin still couldn't understand the imperial decree in his hand.
juggle.
Conjuring?
Well, I have already found the juggler team, but I have been suffering from no chance to enter the palace. Until the day you reminded me, I took them into the palace according to the plan, and recruited the famous gods in the world to steal the imperial decree.
That's really great. Now that we have the imperial decree, we can mobilize the army. It's not too late. I will send someone to deliver the decree immediately.
No, brother Zhang, we can't move the army at will now, the status quo is the best, our first priority now is to rescue the emperor and control the safety of the capital.
Then how do you save it?
At noon tomorrow, tell your subordinates to stand by three miles outside the palace gate and be ready to enter the palace to rescue you at any time.
OK, I'll arrange it now.
Zhang Shaomin believed Feng Shaomin's words, and left the secret room to arrange manpower. Feng Shaomin looked at the blank imperial decree with a smile on his lips. In a few days, the world will belong to the emperor again.
The coachman reined in the reins slowly, and the carriage came to a smooth stop. Shangguan Hai, who was standing on the steps by the door, stepped forward and cupped his hands, "Master, it's been a tiring journey, please. Please."
An old man got off the carriage, nodded to Shangguanhai, and walked into the admiral's mansion. Shangguanhai led the old man into a room and ordered no one to disturb him.
Shangguan, is the young lady doing well in the palace?
If you go back to the prince, the young lady no longer lives in the palace, she lives in the princess mansion.
What?Princess House?Who allowed her to leave the palace?When Lingnan King heard that Tianxin was not in the palace, he patted the table and glared.
I have neglected my duties, my lord, please calm down. I have already reported this matter to the young master, and the young master said it is all right, so I accompanied the young lady to the princess mansion.
Tomorrow, the emperor will order that Miss Zhao enter the palace, and she will not be allowed to leave the palace in the future, do you understand?
Yes, the officer understands.
Have you found Yuxi's whereabouts?
Not yet, but the official feels that it is likely to be in the hands of the son-in-law, so the official has already sent people to sneak into the princess mansion to look for it.
Be quick, the king has already discussed with the generals about the matter of raising troops, and it will be successful only when Yuxi is in hand.
My lord, I have a trick to force the son-in-law to hand over the jade seal.
oh?explain.
As long as Princess Tianxiang is in our hands, the son-in-law will definitely commit a crime.
this?The King of Lingnan stroked his beard, weighed it for a moment, and said, let the lady live in the princess mansion tomorrow, the lady doesn't know about us, I'm afraid a Tianxiang can't force the concubine to hand over the jade seal, plus Xin'er, hmph, this king If you don't believe the son-in-law, you will commit a crime!
My lord, no way, how can Miss Xin'er be our pawn?
Don't you understand what it means for Miss to live in the Princess Mansion, this king will cut her off this time, and also want to see if Feng Shaomin has affection for her.
The subordinate understands, is the prince living in the subordinate's mansion these days?
The king will not be here anymore. If there is anything, the king will order someone to come to you. It's getting late. You should go and take care of tomorrow's affairs first. The king is gone.
Yes, I will send you off to the prince respectfully.
In the early morning political meeting hall, civil and military officials whispered to each other from time to time, discussing today's affairs. When Feng Shaomin appeared in the hall with the imperial decree, everyone quieted down and walked into the crowd. Feng Shaomin looked at the civil and military officials and said The imperial decree in his hand was held above his head, and he said to all adults, for this imperial decree, please kneel down to accept the decree.
Long live my emperor long live long live long live.
In accordance with the fate of heaven, the emperor ordered that Shangguan Hai, the admiral of the nine gates, was proud of his soldiers and falsely preached the imperial decree. Today, he will be removed from the post of admiral of the nine gates, and will be put in prison for my own trial. The vacant post of admiral will be temporarily in charge of the prime minister, Zhang Shaomin. .
As soon as Feng Shaomin's imperial decree was read, the crowd below became restless. Shangguan Hai alone knelt on the ground. He looked at the imperial decree in Feng Shaomin's hand and shook his head in disbelief.
Lord Shangguan, are you still not accepting the order?Feng Shaomin took a step closer to Shangguanhai, and made the imperial decree as a delivery certificate.
Mr. Feng, do you have any evidence for your claim that the lower official passed on the imperial decree?
Lord Shangguan, the person who said that you falsely preached the imperial decree was the emperor, not the official. This official is only following the order to do things. Come here, take off the official hat and court clothes of Lord Shangguan, and put him in the prison!
wait!Shangguan Hai broke away from Feng Shaomin's bodyguard and stood up. Everyone knows that the emperor is sick now and will not go to court for a long time, and this imperial decree was issued suddenly. How do I know, my lord, if you want to eradicate the subordinate officials and pass on the imperial decree? !
presumptuous!Lord Shangguan, you are an official of the imperial court, you should know the consequences of this false imperial decree, I can't do it, if you don't believe it, you will know it after reading the imperial decree, if you still don't believe it, then you have to invite the emperor, but when the time comes, please This will not be the case when the emperor comes.
No matter what, I have to see the emperor today. Shangguan Hai passed through the crowd and was about to leave the Palace of Political Affairs. The guards guarding the palace saw Shangguan Hai's eyes and wanted to surround the entire Palace of Political Affairs.
Feng Shaomin had long expected that Shangguan Hai would disobey the order, but she was not afraid of Shangguan Hai leaving, because she never thought of letting Shangguan Hai leave the Palace of Political Affairs alive. Mr. Shangguan, are you going to disrespect the order?
Hmph, the lower officials only believe what the emperor himself says.
My lords, Mr. Shangguan disobeyed the order and disrespected him, and he repeatedly contradicted me. Now that the gold medal was bestowed by the previous emperor, you can cut it off first and play it later. Today, I beheaded Mr. Shangguan in front of all civil and military officials.
After Feng Shaomin finished speaking, he drew out the sword at the waist of the guard beside him and stabbed at him. Seeing the danger was approaching, Shangguan Hai also drew the sword at the guard's waist to fight. It's a pity that although he is not weak in martial arts, compared with Feng Shaomin After a while, Feng Shaomin knocked down the sword in his hand and pressed it against his neck. The guards guarding the temple wanted to move. You look at me, I look at you, but in the end they didn’t move. .
The winner is king, the loser is bandit, kill or cut, do as you like!
Mr. Shangguan, you are a man who can be made, but it is a pity that you followed the wrong master, Feng Shaomin is telling the truth.
Hmph, Feng Shaomin, I have nothing to say when I am defeated by you, I just hate Zhang Yi, who was defeated by you, and I am also defeated by you, you'd better treat Miss Tianxin with care, otherwise If you don't, even if I become a ghost, I will disturb your peace every night.
Shangguanhai looked at Feng Shaomin complaining bitterly, and had no intention of living any longer. He put his head against the sword on his neck, and fell straight down. The hot blood from his neck seeped into the cold ground. Close it, it's full of resentment.
Dreaming back in the middle of the night, Feng Shaomin was startled awake. It was already early winter outside, and even inside the house, he could still feel the slightest chill, but Feng Shaomin's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat. Get up, the candle outside the tent is still burning slowly.
Shaomin, what did you dream about?Scared like this?Tianxiang raised her hand to wipe the sweat from Feng Shaomin's forehead, and asked with concern.
I, I dreamed about Xin'er, Feng Shaomin answered Tian Xiang's words, and got out of bed to get dressed, now she desperately wants to see Xin'er.
Shaomin, where are you going?Shaomin?Tianxiang was a little worried about Feng Shaomin's move, and immediately got out of bed, got dressed and followed Feng Shaomin.
When Feng Shaomin came to the east hall, he went directly to Tianxin's room. When he entered the room and saw the empty bed, Feng Shaomin shouted nervously, Xin'er, where are you, Xin'er.
Feng Shaomin was worried about Tianxin, and Tianxiang was worried about her. Tianxiang had never heard of someone else's name appearing in Feng Shaomin's dream. This was the first time, and it was also the one that made her feel distressed the most.
Feng Shaomin called Tianxin's name while searching, and Tianxiang followed her silently. He searched the entire east hall, but couldn't find Tianxin's figure. When Feng Shaomin was about to go crazy, a maid came in, and Feng Shaomin grabbed her. The maid's arm asked where Tianxin was, and the maid said that Princess Tianxin was burning paper in the garden, so she came back to pick up a cloak for fear that she would freeze.
Before the maid finished speaking, Feng Shaomin went straight to the garden. When he saw Tianxin's person, Feng Shaomin hugged Tianxin tightly into his arms without saying a word, but Tianxin saw the person next to him. Tianxiang and the maid tried their best to break free from Feng Shaomin's embrace.
Xin'er, what are you doing in the garden?Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night?Tianxiang asked.
I?I?Tianxin distanced himself from Feng Shaomin, today is the first seven days of Shangguan elder brother, I want to burn some paper for him, it is inconvenient to be in the mansion during the day, so I want to wait until everyone is asleep before burning.
Okay, I'll be here with you, Feng Shaomin took the cloak from the maid and put it on Tianxin's back, then bent down and picked up the paper money and threw it into the basin.
No, you don't have to burn paper money for him, Tianxin blocked Feng Shaomin's hand.
Well?Okay, I'll stay here with you. Feng Shaomin naturally understands what Tianxin said. She, a murderer, has no right to burn paper for the dead.
When she returned to the room, Feng Shaomin's hands were already cold, she sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, Tianxiang sat down next to her, and holding her hand, Fang felt strangely cold, Shaomin, yours Why are hands so cold?
my hand?Feng Shaomin put his hands in front of his eyes and looked at Tianxiang, "Xiang'er, I don't want to kill anyone, but my hands are covered with blood.
Shao Min, Shangguan Hai deserves to die, so don't blame yourself so much, okay?
I always think of the look in his eyes when he died, very unwilling.
Tomorrow we invite the mage to do a ceremony to save him.
I also dreamed of Xin'er, a large expanse of snow, stained red with blood, she was lying in the blood, with a sword stuck in her heart, I wanted to save her, but no matter how hard I struggled, it was useless, I just watched My heart fell before my eyes.
It was just a dream, Shaomin, Feng Shaomin became more and more excited as he spoke, Tianxiang hugged her tightly in his arms to comfort her, she could feel Feng Shaomin's trembling body, which dispelled what she wanted to ask at first.
Feng Shaomin was still in Tianxiang's arms, but she still had lingering fears. In the dream just now, she did dream of Shangguanhai's unwilling eyes, and also dreamed of Tianxin being stabbed, but she didn't tell Tianxiang that she was in the dream. The person who stabbed Tianxin down was her.
The doctors of the Imperial Hospital were busy going back and forth in and out of the palace. They were all looking for an antidote for the emperor's ecstasy. Since entering the palace that day, they have not found Dongfang Luo, and even the antidote has disappeared. The emperor Good times and bad times are worrying.
After the early court, Feng and Zhang accompanied the emperor to discuss matters in the study. The important national affairs had been discussed in the previous court. What they are talking about now is whether to order the generals to return to Beijing. After all, there are still many people in the court who belong to the King of Lingnan , so it is inconvenient to speak in the hall, the emperor sat at the table and listened to the conversation between the two, expressionless.
Brother Feng, I have ordered people to bring the family members of several generals into the capital, and they will arrive in the capital in a few days. Shouldn't we send people to issue an edict next?
Well, once their family members are arranged in the capital, they should be ordered to return to Beijing immediately, and even the King of Lingnan should be ordered back.
Brother Feng, is it too dangerous to order them back to the capital together? We are not sure if they are united.
Don't be afraid, they all have hostages in our hands, even if they don't care about the safety of the hostages, we don't have to be afraid, I have already suspended the customs clearance documents in the name of the emperor and sent them to the state, and borrowed [-] elite soldiers. After passing the test, the reason why the King of Lingnan did not take action is because he wanted to gain the throne in a straightforward manner. The so-called people who win the hearts of the people win the world. He understands this very well, but it is precisely because of this that he gave us time to fight back.
That's good, now that everything is arranged, the only thing left is to find an antidote for the emperor, Zhang Shaomin glanced at the emperor and sighed.
Feng Shaomin also took a look at the emperor, and then walked slowly with his hands behind his back. How many people were killed by that chair, but there are still so many people who don't understand, how much power you have, how much power you have Dangerous, life is only a few dozen years, so why bother to bind yourself like this.
Oh, this is human beings, and human desires are always endless.
By the way, Brother Zhang, is there any news about Mrs. Sister-in-law recently?
Zhang Shaomin shook his head, no matter if he didn't mention it, but he got angry. It's been nearly three years, and there is no news.
Didn't Wang Gu'er show his face when he returned to the capital?Impossible, as far as she knows, Dongfang Luo is still hiding in the capital, could it be that Wang Guer is also hiding, the most dangerous place is the safest, and the most dangerous place is Ge Lao Mansion other than Dongfang Luo's house Thinking of this, she immediately reminded Zhang Shaomin, Brother Zhang, I seem to have seen a woman who looks like Mrs. Sister-in-law appearing near Ge Lao Mansion recently, look, should you go and see?
Zhang Shaomin was taken aback. Have you really seen it?
It seems to be, but not sure.
I know what to do, so I will go ahead and say goodbye. Zhang Shaomin took a deep breath and walked away quickly.
Watching him leave, Feng Shaomin grinned, as long as she can find Wang Gu'er, she is not afraid that she will not find Dongfang Luo.
Because Feng Shaomin was always awakened by nightmares, Tianxiang didn't care about the weather. She went to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense in light snow, hoping not to disturb them again. Tianxin went.
After the two of them burned the incense, they saw that the snow outside seemed to be falling heavily, so they wanted to stay in the temple for a while, and then return to the mansion when the snow was lighter. The abbot prepared a meditation room for them, and the two sat down and drank Chatting with warm tea, she felt that it was almost time. Tianxiang got up and pushed the window to look. It was no longer snowing outside. She was a little angry and spit casually, what did these people do? Tell us to call us when the snow stops Yes, it's good now, the figures are gone.
Maybe they had something to do and walked away, Tian Xin also got up and came to the window.
Then let's go, Shaomin should go back home.
Ok.
Hey, it's too quiet in this temple. It wasn't like this just now. Where did everyone go?Tianxiang looked around and was a little puzzled.
Two princesses, you two have finally come out, said a monk.
Hey, little master, where are the bearers in my palace?
bearers?Oh, princess, I'm afraid you won't be able to go back today.
oh?why?
Brothers, come out, the monk yelled towards the back wall, and twenty or so people with sharp swords stood up, and the swords were all stained with blood, and they were still dripping down.
Seeing this scene, Tianxiang felt that something was wrong, so she pulled Tianxin behind her and told her, "Xin'er, run away as soon as you have a chance."
Miss Huang, who are they?
If the two princesses want to know who we are, go to the Underworld and ask the late emperor, brothers, come on!The monk swung his sword, and twenty or so people charged at Tianxiang who was unarmed.
Xin'er, I'm blocking, you run!Tianxiang pushed Tianxin back, told her to run quickly, and stepped forward to meet the battle.
Neither of you can escape!The monk took Tianxin away from Tianxiang's side without any effort, and quickly ran towards the back mountain.
Miss Huang, save me!Tianxin struggled in horror, was knocked out by the monk's palm, carried it on his shoulder and ran away, but the unarmed Tianxiang couldn't beat twenty or so people at all, so he could only helplessly shout her name to see her being taken away .
At this critical moment, Yijian Piaohong appeared. He threw Tianxiang a sword and asked her to save others first, but Tianxiang was afraid that he would not be able to handle it alone, so she didn't leave right away. , then shouted loudly to smell the smell, you hurry to save people, I will be distracted if you are here.
Brother Jian, there are too many of them, be careful, Tianxiang felt that what he said was right, so she pushed out of the encirclement desperately, and chased along the mountain road. There was still a snowy bluestone slab. And a series of footprints, she picked up Tianxin's cloak and ran along the footprints, and finally caught up.
The monk put Tianxin next to a dead tree, tore Tianxin's clothes, and Tianxin fell to the ground motionless, which made Tianxiang very annoyed. She held the sword and swung it over. The monk didn't expect to catch up so quickly. , and ruined his good deed, picked up the sword that was thrown aside and swung it up.
Besides, Yijian Piaohong, he slowly gained the upper hand, and his back, arms, and legs were all wounded by the sword. In the end, more than twenty swords were placed between his neck and legs, and the sword in his hand was also beaten. Falling to the ground, my sword fluttering red is defeated by your hands today, you want to kill or cut, whatever you want.
Okay, yes, it really is a man, someone outside the crowd applauded, everyone heard the voice and moved out of the way.
It's you!Yijian Piaohong also looked at the speaker, and when he saw the person clearly, a sword had pierced his heart.
The person holding the sword looked at Yijian Piaohong for a moment, then pulled the sword in his hand away from Yijian Piaohong's heart. In an instant, blood gushed out like a flood.
I didn't want to kill you, but you ruined my plan. As I said, I will never let anyone hinder me again!
You, smell smell, smell smell, Yijian Piaohong murmured these words, and slowly fell to the ground, he looked at the sky, and remembered all the past events between him and Tianxiang, he seemed to hear Tianxiang calling him Brother Jian , Brother Jian.
Smelly, smelly.
It was Brother Jian's voice, Brother Jian, did the monk run away?Tianxiang stroked her still dizzy head and subconsciously answered, when she sat up from the cold ground with difficulty, she didn't see the shadow of Yijian fluttering red, it was obviously Brother Jian's voice, where did he go?The damn stinky monk actually shot in the back and stunned me with drugs, ah, my head is so dizzy.
Brother Jian, where are you?Tianxiang propped herself up with her sword, stood up and looked around, making sure that there was no shadow of a sword fluttering red, but under a dead tree, she saw Tianxin lying there in disheveled clothes. Seeing this, Tianxiang immediately woke up and rushed over Helping Tianxin up, she looked at Tianxin's torn clothes and naked body, and she was stunned. She didn't dare to think about what happened, so she immediately took off her clothes, wrapped Tianxin up, and carried her away .
There is only one way out of the temple from the back mountain, so Tianxiang still saw the sword fluttering red. At this time, the sword fluttered red, his body was already stiff, and his blood had also solidified. His left arm was chopped off by a sharp weapon. The trace, Tianxiang was one step away, just took a look, then his eyes went dark, and together with Tianxin on his back, he fell to the ground hard.
In the side hall of the Princess Mansion, a mourning hall was set up. A sword fluttering red lay on the cold board and fell asleep forever. Feng Shaomin stood by and watched Zhang Shaomin examine the wound carefully, hoping to find some clues. After a long time Zhang Shaomin looked up at Feng Shaomin and shook his head. The wounds on his body were just ordinary sword wounds. The fatal wound was the sword in the heart. Your left arm was chopped off. It was probably his left hand at that time. hold something.
Feng Shaomin closed his eyes and listened to Zhang Shaomin's words, and frowned tightly. Is there anyone alive in Xiangguo Temple?
Zhang Shaomin shook his head again, and covered Yijian Piaohong's body with a piece of cloth. Judging from the evidence left at the scene, Xiangguo Temple may have been occupied by gangsters, and they were probably waiting for Tianxiang to appear.
In your opinion, who do you think the murderer will be?
On the cusp of this storm, who wants to kill Tianxiang, I think you should guess it.
How do you explain that day?
Maybe they didn't expect that Princess Tianxin also went there that day, so the last one to die was Brother Piaohong.
I don't care who the murderer is, I just want a result, find this person for me, Tianxiang appeared in the mourning hall silently, her eyes were red and swollen, she threw a portrait to Zhang Shaomin, with trembling hands, she lifted the white cloth, Feng Shaomin stepped forward One step, stop her hand, Xiang'er, promise me, be strong.
Feng Shaomin's kind words made Tianxiang red-eyed again, don't worry, I will be strong, and I will avenge Brother Jian.
Isn't the princess fine during the day, why did she have a fever at night?
In the afternoon, the princess had been standing under the eaves, saying that she was enjoying the snow, but the servants couldn't persuade her, so they could only let her go, for fear that she would catch a cold and develop a fever.
Myolie, bring me my cloak, I'll go see her.
Princess, you are not feeling well by yourself, it’s fine for the old servant to serve you, besides, the son-in-law will not be ready for a while.
