Rebirth of the Golden Bastard

In the name of an imperial envoy, Sikong Shen went there specifically to rebuild the surrounding villages and towns of Qingxia City.In the same company, there are important officials of the imperial court and grain money distributed by the Emperor Ren for emergency needs.

Several small towns closest to Qingxia City also got the news and dispatched people to help.People who have lost their villages and towns can be accommodated in the surrounding small towns or Qingxia City.

Although the damaged part of Qingxia City is not much, the flooding of the granary can be big or small.Fortunately, the children from rich families in the surrounding towns are willing to donate food, which is gratifying.

The water diversion is still going on, and the water flowing into the Xiao Liusha River after bypassing the mountain depression behind the village entrance has made the water in the entire fork very turbid.Sikong Shen was very farsighted, first sent emergency documents to Qingxia City, ordered the prefect over there to send a number of doctors to wait, and then ordered several villages and towns near the Quicksand River not to boil the water completely and not allow drinking.After several twists and turns, although a small-scale plague broke out later, fortunately, it was dealt with in time, and the employer got it, and it was immediately controlled.

But that's another story.

Sikong Shen and his entourage were mighty and mighty, holding the cargo box of the carriage, they couldn't move fast even if they wanted to.Even so, it was already moving faster than expected.

Along the way, there are green mountains and green waters, and the south of the Yangtze River is a beautiful scenery.No matter how flustered the world is, the heaven and the earth remain motionless, as if they have never been hindered or affected by anything.

The sky is still the same sky, and the earth is still the same land.Sikong Shen was a little absent-minded all the way, he naturally has his own plans for traveling at this moment.With Sikong Yanjin guarding the rear, he is not afraid of being taken in. If the matter is done well this time, he might make a great contribution in front of Emperor Ren.He didn't intend to just rebuild Qingxia City, but he was planning to investigate the situation on the front line together.It is natural to help where you can help. You can't let others take advantage of it, but you can't lose money yourself.

Although he didn't show anything on the surface, it didn't mean he didn't have doubts in his heart.What is Renhuang's intention in making Xia Cangqiao the Marquis at this time?Not to mention that there have been no such absurd things in the past and present, even if there were, they would not have promoted a young man who was loved by the emperor...not from the royal family before the crown prince was established.

I always feel it's not that simple.Being a Marquis is a major event in Yilan, and only princes and princes have always had this opportunity.Lord Hou is a representative of another kind of power. He is a little subtle. In the history of Yilan, there have been incidents where the emperor passed the throne to Lord Hou instead of the prince.

He felt something was wrong in his heart, and he always felt that the reason why the emperor did not appoint a prince for a long time might be Xia Cangqiao.

Throughout the more than 20 years of Emperor Ren's reign, he is now just approaching forty years old.It's a good time, and it stands to reason that the brothers fight in private, but it's not the time to really bring these undercurrents to the surface.

But not only him, even the eldest prince Sikong Ming, who has been silent for many years, can't hold back now.Everyone must have felt something about that Xia Cangqiao who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

What Si Kongming said was right, Xia Cangqiao is just an ordinary person, so what if his aunt is a concubine in the harem?Since he was a child, he has been deeply protected by the Emperor Ren and the Ninth Prince. Up to now, the Emperor Ren has not established a prince, but he has seized the opportunity to promote Xia Cangqiao's goodness everywhere.

How do you look at it... This is all paving the way for Xia Cangqiao.

After thinking deeply, Sikong Shen suddenly felt a cold sweat all over his body.Maybe the brothers are fighting back and forth, but they are basically making wedding dresses for others.Now that Emperor Ren is in power, the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful, and the weather is smooth.Originally, there was no mess to clean up, and the princes hardly participated in the frontier wars, but now Xia Cangqiao is responsible for a series of great achievements...

"Ninth Master?... Ninth Master? Master?"

A few shouts from Nan Xun beside him pulled him back from his thoughts, he came back to his senses, and raised his eyes to look at the road ahead.

"What time is it?"

"It's time, sir." Nan Xun said, "You don't look very well, do you want to rest?"

They were hurrying all the way, he was afraid that his master would not be able to bear it.After so many years in the palace, it is rare to go out so far.

Sikong Shen collected himself, "It's okay, let's go for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a tall horse passing by in a hurry.The man on the big horse was in a mess, and there seemed to be many wounds on his body, but his face was firm and his eyes were piercing, but he passed by in a flash, and the sound of the horse's hooves gradually faded away.

Sikong was stunned for a while, only to feel that the man seemed familiar.But the clothes don't look the same, and the other party is muddy...

Probably misunderstood.Sikong rubbed the center of his brows, and put down the curtain.

Who is that hurrying past?Naturally, he is a titan running all the way.The titan took Cang Qiao's favor, and was cautious all the way, hiding his whereabouts and heading back to the capital.There was nothing wrong along the way, but when he saw that he was approaching, he was stopped by Fang Xing and Tie Lao.

Two people fought against him, but he broke out with a burst of spirit.Although there are many colors on his body, it does not affect his spirit.

He escorted the letter all the way for another three days, and finally entered the outer city of the capital at midnight.

"Open the door!" The titan shouted outside the outer city gate, "Come on! Open the door!"

The guard upstairs was woken up and said angrily: "Who doesn't have eyes! The outer city only opens at Yin time every day!"

Before he finished speaking, suddenly a sword with a cold light flew up, and pierced straight and precisely into the crack of the wall beside the man.

"I'm from Murong's residence! There are urgent documents from the front line to be sent to the palace! Can you afford to miss something?!"

After being yelled at by the titan, the gatekeeper will do as well.Looking down with wide eyes, what a guy... a person who looks like he rolled out of the mud, but his eyebrows are familiar.Aren't they the people from Murong Mansion!

The gate of the city was opened wide, and the warrior galloped in.The sound of horseshoes sounded a little jarring on the silent street.He went all the way to Murong Mansion, and the servants saw that he hurried to report.

When the giant strode into the main hall, Murong Ya hurried out in his clothes.

"Young master!" The titan knelt down in one step, holding the tightly wrapped envelope with both hands, "Master Xia said that you must open this letter and read it yourself!"

Murong Ya was taken aback by his appearance at this time, and helped him up while receiving the letter.

"How did this happen..." He saw the large and small wounds on the man's body clearly under the light, and his expression changed, "Come here! Find a doctor!"

A servant hurried out, but the brave general didn't care, he just said: "My lord, look at it first..."

Before he finished speaking, another person came out from the other side of the door.It is Shenyang!

Shenyang is still living in the Murong Mansion, although he has been given an official position, but the place to live has not yet been decided.

Shen Yang yawned, his black hair was hanging down his back, and he was only wearing a coat, "Brother Han is back?" He paused suddenly after speaking, "What... what's going on? Why all the injuries?"

Murong Ya had already opened the letter at this time, and looked at the lantern handed over by the servant next to her.He looked around, his eyes flickered, but he quickly covered it up.He folded the letter again, took the lantern off the lampshade, and set the letter on fire.

Shen Yang watched his movements, "What happened to the front line?"

Murong Ya watched all the papers burnt to ashes, she clapped her hands slowly, turned her head and said, "Something has happened."

Shen Yang became serious, "Do you need my help?"

Murong Ya lowered her eyes, as if she was thinking about something, and said after a while: "Master Shen, this matter is urgent and I will not hide it from you. This letter was sent by Cang Qiao, who said that he found the cold moon palace. where the Lord is."

Shen Yang raised his brows, but there was no change on his face, "Then?"

"I heard that the other party is in the capital now." Murong Ya became anxious, and while asking her servants to bring her a court uniform, she said, "I'm going to the palace overnight, and you go to the military investigation to order the outer city to be sealed off, not allowed for the time being." Anyone can come in or out."

Shen Yang nodded, "I'll go right away!"

The three of them separated, the hero changed into his clothes, the wound on his body was only hastily bandaged, and he followed Murong Ya into the palace.

Emperor Ren had already received the news and was waiting in the hall.There is no one in the spacious hall now, unlike the usual crowds of people standing in court, it feels a bit desolate.At night, the golden dragon seat and the carved beams and pillars did not show the glory of the day, but it was a bit more sinister like eating people without spitting out bones.

As soon as Murong Ya entered the main hall, she first knelt down in salute, then got up and said: "Your Majesty, please allow me to come forward and speak."

Ren Huang screened back to the left and right, and said: "Come up and talk."

Murong Ya said "offended", stepped forward in three steps at a time, and said in a low voice, "Cang Qiao's letter, Shen Yang...is the master of Hanyue Palace, he cooperated with Jin Zhangli and the instigator who blew up the diversion port Probably him too."

At first, Emperor Ren's face changed when he heard it, but at least he was the emperor, so he recovered quickly.He said calmly: "I remember that Shen Yang has always lived in your residence."

Murong Ya said: "I ordered him to seal off the outer city." Then he told Ren Huang what he had said with Shen Yang.

Emperor Ren admired: "I can read the letter in front of him without changing my face, and I can still deal with it calmly. Well, well, I really saw the right person."

Murong Ya cupped her hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment, but now... what should we do?"

Being beaten into the interior by the enemy swaggeringly, it really makes people laugh out loud.Emperor Ren sighed, only to feel that it was impossible to guard against.Although the Ninth Prince didn't interfere much in the government affairs, he had been keeping an eye on the plans of the Orchid Sect with the left and right generals.

But he didn't want to be fooled by the Orchid Pie, and let another scumbag enter his territory with a well-planned plan.

I'm afraid the boss of the Orchid Sect is also very depressed at this time. They have been mingling for a long time, but they were led away by others.

Emperor Ren fell silent, and Murong Ya also bowed his head and waited aside.It's not good to scare the snake by surprise. Since I didn't expect Shen Yang to be a member of Hanyue Palace, who else is around him, or even around themselves?Who is not?

This is really mind blowing.

The two of them were worrying, when the titan who had been standing still below suddenly said: "The humble job has a trick, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Murong Ya looked at him, "You have a way, tell me quickly!"

The titan nodded and said: "Your Majesty, the best way at this time is to use the trick."

He has a straight head, and he can't think of things that far away, and he can't think of so many complicated situations.Naturally, he was not like Murong Ya and the others. He didn't know whether he should summon all the officials at this time, and he was afraid of scaring the snake, and worried that there might be spooks and ambushes around.

The Titan's idea is very simple, since people are here to inquire about the news, just tell them the news.

Murong Ya frowned, "Is that true news, or fake news?"

If it's true, wouldn't it be worse?But if it was a lie, how would they inform Cang Qiao and the others?The news released will definitely be intercepted, people are not as fast as pigeons, if the titans are allowed to run again, not only horses can't stand it, but people can't stand it.

But the titan said: "Naturally speaking the truth. Telling lies requires colluding with many officials to get good news, which is even more troublesome."

If one lie completes the other, there will inevitably be problems.

Emperor Ren also nodded, "The titan is right, I can only tell the truth."

"Then..." Murong Ya frowned, "Cang Qiao..."

"I think Cang Qiao might understand." Emperor Ren seemed to have thought of something, and said: "I will draw up an order now, and let Cang Qiao and the general know the news we want to say!"

……

On the morning of the second day, the capital was under martial law.Emperor Ren ordered the people to read out the imperial decree in public: the Ninth Prince immediately brought elite soldiers back to the capital to protect him, General Ying and Jin Zhang temporarily made peace talks, the Lanhua faction and Hanyue Palace attempted to rebel, and General You led the officers and soldiers of Qingxia City to Hanyue Palace to wipe out all the people, etc... …

One after another of the news came down, people were caught off guard.Even Shenyang was a little surprised.

Emperor Ren said aloofly: "As I ordered, I, Yilan, support Prince Jinzhang's ascension to the throne, and send good horses and food as a sign of friendship."

An official below frowned and said: "Your Majesty! Absolutely not! The Second Prince Jinzhang is warlike and brutal. Once he ascends the throne, he will definitely kill me Yilan first. I'm afraid there will never be peace!"

Murong Ya suddenly stood up and said: "Now that the people from Cold Moon Palace have infiltrated the capital, the far water cannot save the near fire! If something happens to the emperor's dragon body, can you afford it?"

Shen Yang stood below with a blank expression, watching the two parties start to quarrel.He looked up, and saw that the so-called Emperor Ren was expressionless, but there was a hint of sadness between his brows.

In the end, Emperor Ren was just a coward, Shen Yang thought slowly.

"Stop arguing." Emperor Ren rubbed his brows wearily, "It's settled like this. Let's settle the matter of Hanyue Palace and Orchid Sect first. Things will always be the same."

After finishing speaking, he looked up and looked around, "The person who issued the imperial decree will let... Shenyang." He called by name: "You go."

Shen Yang was taken aback, "My minister is terrified..."

"If you are told to go, you can go." Emperor Ren said impatiently: "In order to assist the reconstruction of Qingxia City, the Ninth Prince took away everyone around me." He turned to look at Murong Ya again, "Murong, you stay and help me deal with this."

Murong Ya respectfully said: "Yes!"

Shen Yang thought about it, anyway, he is now a military investigator.If you go to issue an imperial decree, many news will definitely fall into your own ears first.This is beneficial to their actions, and there is no harm.

Then he nodded and said: "My minister obeys the order."
