Zhuo Qihua

Emperor Yong'an had served the two of them in the royal courtyard, but the officials in the capital were too busy to touch the ground.On the fourth day after the full moon of Princess Ning and King Jin, the Mata army crossed the river and launched a general attack on Tarkin's troops.A large ship loaded with soldiers and supplies from the Mata country was launched, and the soldiers and horses of Tarkin's department were standing by on the other side of the river.

On the tall flying tower, the first hang glider left the flying tower and flew steadily in the air with the headwind.The bright red hang glider is extremely eye-catching in the clear sky.Three hundred hang gliders formed a beautiful and shocking pattern in the air.Like a group of flying red birds, the extremely fast hang glider surpassed the fleet in the river and flew over the Tarkin army.

The Tarkin panicked, what was that?They have already seen that there are people on the big red bird, but how can people fly in the sky!But before they could find out the truth, harsh whistles rang through the air one after another.The Tarkins watched as black things fell from the sky.

Visually, it looked like a bottle, and the Talkins avoided it, thinking that the Mata people might have filled the bottle with water or something.The only thing you can hold in a bottle is water or oil.

The first bottle hit the ground, and then suddenly exploded.There were screams everywhere, and the exploded bottle not only blasted glass shards on the faces and bodies of the Tarkins, but the ensuing flames ignited their clothes.

Three bottles are tied to each hang glider, three hundred hang gliders, nine hundred bottles.Glass bottles filled with white phosphorus explosives exploded in Tarkin's army, and then quickly ignited the soldiers stained with white phosphorus at an extremely fast speed.No one cared about those big red birds that seemed to be landing in the distance.The Talkin were terrified by the dreadful bottles.Panic once again spread among the Tarkins, not to mention them, even the hang glider fighters of the Mata country who dropped these dark glass white phosphorous bombs were terrified when they saw the tragic situation of the Tarkins before landing cold sweat.

Emperor Yong'an was waiting for the battle report from Beigu in the imperial courtyard. He didn't tell Zhuo Ji when Pan Yuzhi was going to cross the river, and Zhuo Ji didn't ask.A fast horse galloped towards the capital, and when it was about to reach the city gate, the rider on the horse held up a special sign: "Great victory! Great defeat of Talkin's Ministry! Great victory for Mata country!"

The officers and soldiers guarding the gate quickly removed the obstacles, allowing the fast horses to enter the city smoothly.

"The Talkin tribe was defeated! The army crossed the Hanjiang River, and the Talkin people were defeated—the great victory of the Mata country—!"

The soldiers who reported the letter shouted all the way to the Ministry of War to tell the good news to the people in the capital.The Talkin Department, which has troubled the northeast border of Mata country for more than a hundred years, is about to be destroyed!

The people in the capital rushed to the streets in ecstasy, chasing behind the fast horse, and shouting: "Talkin's tribe is defeated! Tarkin's tribe is defeated! Long live your majesty! Long live your majesty—!"

This good news quickly swept through the court through the Ministry of War and the cabinet.Lin Xieshan personally went to Tongling Bieyuan to announce the good news to His Majesty.The Mata army crossed the Han River and attacked Mydoro City. Although it is not known whether it will be breached or whether Atutai will die, the great victory of this battle can no longer stop the carnival of the people in the capital.The ministers who once opposed Pan Pozhi's initiative to attack the Tarkins all shut up, hoping that His Majesty would never remember that they had objected.

The Talkin Department, which has a strong cavalry combat effectiveness, was defeated across the board in less than a year!More than a month ago, the army of the Mata country was still west of the Han River, and it took only 20 days for the army to cross the river!The whole capital is full of joy and doubts, especially the common people. They don't know the "advanced" things like artillery and hang glider. If some common people talk about it in private, it can't be a lie about the military situation, right?

There is no shortage of such doubts in the court, but some ministers are as expected.Although the cannon was withdrawn, His Majesty also said that there were still Molotov cocktails and explosives.Plus the mysterious hang glider... Although they can't imagine what the hang glider can do when it flies into the sky, with that expert, the end of this war has been doomed from the very beginning.

After 900 hang gliders dropped [-] bottles filled with white phosphorus and explosive powder from the sky, the war actually ended prematurely.Atutai assembled a heavy army on the banks of the Han River, even surpassing the defenders of Mythora City.In this battle, Atutai was either successful or benevolent.Because once the army of the Fangmata country crossed the Han River, Atutai had no confidence in being able to withstand the terrifying weapons of the Mata country—after all, Atutai did not know that the country had withdrawn all its artillery.

However, Tarkin's heavy troops assembled by the river did not show their due strength at all.The terrible things dropped by the Mata people from the air blew up and burned their confidence. The Mata country forward troops who successfully landed under the cover of the air force cut them off their horses with their extremely sharp knives.The cavalry of the Mata country is not as good as that of the Tarkins, but after the intensive bombardment, the horses of the Tarkins were already frightened like crazy, and the Tarkins were trampled to death by their own horses countless.

Under the impact of the vanguard of the Mata State army, the follow-up troops of the Mata State landed smoothly.The Taljin people fled in all directions, and the army of the Mata country was in dire straits.The bullets of the Musketeers were the last straw that broke the Tarkin's will to fight.The defenders of Mydoro City looked desperately at the remnants of Talkin who had been brought back from the Han River. The only thing they could do was to defend.But will the soldiers of Mata country give them a chance to stick to it?The city walls of the Talkin Department are generally not strong. After all, under their iron cavalry, Mata country usually only defends, and rarely invades their cities.In addition, the low-level technology created by the Tarkins is nothing more than imitating cats and tigers, imitating the appearance of the city walls of the Mata country.

No glider was deployed to attack the city of Mydora, and the catapults threw Molotov cocktails and white phosphorous bomb bottles into the city of Mydora far away.Before the kerosene prepared by the Tarkins had time to splash under the city wall, it was first ignited by a Molotov cocktail that exploded nearby. Instead, it caused a series of explosions in the city, and the flames soared into the sky.When the defense in the city was on the verge of collapse, the main force of the Mata country army was stronger than the moat, and placed explosive packages under the city wall one by one.With a bang, the city wall of Mythora City was broken.

Zhuo Ji's dizziness has long been gone, but Emperor Yong'an always felt that his face was still pale and pale.In the past two months, Zhuo Jina really ate and slept, slept in the hot springs, and continued to eat after soaking in the hot springs, absolutely in the rhythm of raising pigs.Emperor Yong'an was a little satisfied with this, and he finally made him fatter.Emperor Yong'an didn't allow Zhuo Ji to worry about anything, so Zhuo Ji let his mind go blank.Occasionally, with the permission of Emperor Yong'an, he cooks a few dishes for Emperor Yong'an.

Emperor Yong'an was taking a nap with Zhuo Ji, Zhang Xian opened the door and came in, hurriedly came to the dragon bed, whispered: "Long live!"

Emperor Yong'an instantly opened his eyes, and lifted one side of the bed curtain.Zhang Xian leaned over: "Duke Sui is here, it's important!"

The first thing Emperor Yong'an thought of was that Lin Xieshan had brought the person he wanted.Emperor Yong'an glanced at Zhuo Ji who was sleeping soundly, then sat up.Zhang Xian hung up one side of the bed curtain, and Emperor Yong'an got out of bed.After Zhang Xian dressed him in regular clothes, he left quickly.Zhang Xian put down the bed curtain and hurriedly followed.

Lin Xieshan did indeed bring people here, but his main purpose of coming here was to bring the prelude to the war sent by Pan Pozhi himself.As soon as Emperor Yong'an appeared, Lin Xieshan said, "Your Majesty! Pan Yuzhi and other generals led our Matata army across the Hanjiang River and attacked Mydoro City. At this time, the city may have been broken!"

After being shocked for a moment, Emperor Yong'an was ecstatic.He snatched the Jizuo handed over by Lin Xieshan with both hands.After Emperor Yong'an quickly read it, he did not hide his joy: "Hahaha... The Talkin Department belongs to our country! Pan Yuzhi and the others did a good job! I didn't expect them to be so fast! I still want to It would be pretty good to be able to completely end the war before the New Year’s Eve.”

Lin Xieshan: "Your Majesty, in the urgent performance, Pan Pozhi only said that he had successfully crossed the river, and that he would attack the city of Mydoro with all his strength. The army crossed the river smoothly, with only less than 300 casualties. I think it should be the hang gliding and white phosphorous. Great achievement. Our Mata army was not held back by the Tarkins on the banks of the Han River."

Pan Pozhi sent someone to send a rush to the victory of the army, in order to reassure His Majesty.For the specific situation, he still needs to wait for the end of the war to report to Bingming in detail, and it is not so soon.So Lin Xieshan didn't know how the battle was fought.Emperor Yong'an said excitedly: "No matter who has made great achievements, I will reward them heavily!"

Lin Xieshan was also extremely excited.The Talkin Department, the most confidant of the Mata country, was destroyed. As the head of the generals, how could he not be excited and joyful.Lin Xieshan lowered his voice at this moment: "Your Majesty, I have brought you here."

The ecstasy on Emperor Yong'an's face instantly disappeared, and he asked seriously, "What is your identity?"

Lin Xieshan: "It's a reclusive eminent monk. My mother had several friendships with him, and I sent people to find him in the lonely temple deep in Jingyuan Mountain. He didn't want to be born, but I said that if he was willing to help him , I will give him a single copy of Buddhist scriptures."

Emperor Yong'an just said casually: "Do you still have this kind of thing in your mansion?"

Lin Xieshan: "I don't have any."

"..."

"I think, maybe, there will be."

Emperor Yong'an held his breath in his chest, and roared: "How did you know that Shunyu would have such a thing? He doesn't believe in Buddhism!"

Lin Xieshan was also very helpless: "Then Master Yinkong doesn't want anything outside his body, as long as he only needs the scriptures, there is nothing I can do. I can only bring (deceive) him here first, and then we will talk about the rest."

Emperor Yong'an was also helpless, he rubbed his forehead: "Do the work first, I will send someone to go to the Queen Mother to look through it, and find a book to deal with it."

Lin Xieshan: "Maybe there really is one at the Empress Dowager's place."

Emperor Yong'an: "Set him down first, and bring him to see Shunxi tomorrow."

"Yes."

Lin Xieshan withdrew, but Emperor Yong'an did not go back immediately, but was thinking about how to speak to Zhuo Ji about this matter.Zhang Xian listened in a daze, what did Wan Sui do with a reclusive monk?Emperor Yong'an didn't explain to Zhang Xian either, he just said: "Go to Sui Guogong's place and see what he has ordered. You have to settle the eminent monk he brought."

"Yes."

■

Emperor Yong'an was in the room when Zhuo Ji woke up from his afternoon nap, his face was obviously happy.Zhuo Ji blinked: "Your Majesty, what kind of dream is this?"

Emperor Yong'an smiled and said, "It's not a sweet dream. Pan Jianzhi sent a quick performance, and he has successfully crossed the river with his troops. At this time, I am afraid that he has already captured the city of Mythora."

"Ah!" Zhuo Ji was overjoyed, "When did it happen!"

"It should have happened ten days ago. It will take eight days to send it to the capital in eight hundred miles, and Lin Xieshan will send it here quickly."

Zhuo Ji lifted the quilt and got out of bed: "Celebrate, celebrate! Be sure to celebrate!"

Emperor Yong'an stepped forward and held him down: "It's natural to celebrate, you put on your clothes first."

Chang Jing and Xiaohui came in to help Zhuo Ji dress and comb his hair, and Zhuo Ji was also infected by Emperor Yong'an's joy.Emperor Yong'an took him by the hand and left Zhengde Hall.Walking in the other courtyard filled with the atmosphere of the royal garden, Emperor Yong'an was very strangely silent.Zhuo Ji looked back at him: "Your Majesty, the Tarkin Department is going to be in the bag, are you not happy?"

Emperor Yong'an held Zhuo Ji's hand tightly: "Of course I am happy."

"But what's the worry?"

Emperor Yong'an raised his hand, and all the palace people who followed stopped.Emperor Yong'an led Zhuo Ji to the lotus pond ahead, stopped, and turned to look at Zhuo Ji.

Raising his hand to touch Zhuo Ji's still pale face, Emperor Yong'an said: "Lin Xieshan is here, besides sending the urgent performance, he also sent someone."

"people?"

Emperor Yong'an: "A reclusive monk."

Zhuo Ji was surprised and confused: "Why did you send it here? Shouldn't it be sent to the palace?"

In the palace, the queen mother devoted herself to Buddhism.

Emperor Yong'an was silent for a moment: "After you fainted, I asked Lin Xieshan to find an eminent monk or a Taoist priest to find a way to keep your soul here."

Zhuo Ji's eyes slowly widened and his mouth opened. He never thought that Emperor Yong'an would have such an idea!Thinking that he was unhappy, Emperor Yong'an said: "You are Su Hui, and you fainted like that suddenly. What I was most afraid of at the time was not that you would not wake up, but that you woke up and became another person."

Zhuo Ji's throat moved, and then he smiled, and threw himself into the arms of Emperor Yong'an, hugging the restless emperor: "I don't understand this kind of thing, just do what your majesty says, I will Will cooperate."

Emperor Yong'an heaved a sigh of relief, he was afraid that Zhuo Ji would not like it.

Embracing Zhuo Ji, Emperor Yong'an said: "Maybe you can sleep well after doing some religious rituals."

Zhuo Ji reminded: "Your Majesty, non-essential religious activities are strictly prohibited in the palace." Only when an important person in the palace dies, is it allowed to perform rituals such as requiem at the funeral, and it is not allowed at other times.

Emperor Yong'an: "This is not considered a religious activity, and it is not in the palace."

"Your Majesty, you can arrange it."

Zhuo Ji didn't object, so Emperor Yong'an ordered Lin Xieshan to cooperate with that eminent monk to prepare, and it will start after breakfast tomorrow.He couldn't wait for a moment.

This night, Emperor Yong'an slept properly and did not tire his beloved servant.Zhuo Ji did not suffer from insomnia that night as usual, and only fell asleep in the middle of the night.But in the morning, Emperor Yong'an still called Zhuo Ji up cruelly.Zhuo Ji didn't get enough sleep, but he also knew Emperor Yong'an's urgency.After breakfast, he followed Emperor Yong'an to Meditation Pavilion very calmly.Inside the Meditation Pavilion, Lin Xieshan, Master Yinkong and Zhang Xian are already waiting.

As soon as Emperor Yong'an and Zhuo Ji appeared, Lin Xieshan was the first to salute, also telling Master Yinkong who was coming.Master Yinkong didn't follow and saluted, but stared closely at Shunxiu.His appearance made Emperor Yong'an's heart sink on the spot, and Zhuo Ji was also a little uneasy when he saw him, wouldn't he be seen?Zhang Xian, Feng Xi, Chang Jing, and Xiao Hui who followed him did not dare to show their anger, thinking: [What is this old monk doing all the time staring at 俍俍 (master)? 】

The atmosphere at the scene made it impossible to speak out. Emperor Yong'an held Zhuo Ji's hand tightly, and Zhuo Ji noticed that his palms were sweating.Master Yinkong's shriveled, wrinkled face was in great contrast to the gentle aura around him, but his eyes were very clear, and therefore, Zhuo Ji didn't say a word to interrupt the other party's gaze on him.

No one made a sound, but Emperor Yong'an felt murderous intent in his heart.If the old monk really saw something, he would not keep his mouth alive.It was one thing for him to tell Lin Xieshan, but another to be seen out.After a full cup of tea, in fact, it was only 5 minutes—everyone present felt that it had been half an hour—Master Yinkong moved.He took a step forward, bowed deeply to Zhuo Ji, then straightened his waist and raised his right hand: "The benefactor is a person of great kindness, with immeasurable merit."

Others have their own interpretations of these words, but Emperor Yong'an understands them.In the previous life, Zhuo Ji developed the zombie vaccine, and in order to protect the safety of the vaccine and his comrades, he did not hesitate to blew himself up.This is not what immeasurable merit is.Could this old monk really see it?

Emperor Yong'an let go of Zhuo Ji's hand: "Shunxi, you go to the yard and wait for me, and everyone else goes out."

Zhuo Ji raised his head and gave Emperor Yong'an a smile that he was fine, and left calmly.Lin Xieshan and the others went out, only Emperor Yong'an and Master Yinkong were left in the house.Emperor Yong'an walked to the throne and sat down, Master Yinkong's body moved with the emperor's movement.Without letting Yin Kong sit down, Emperor Yong'an asked directly: "What did you see?"

Master Yinkong kept his mouth shut.

Emperor Yong'an: "Shun, he is my beloved servant. I asked Sui Guogong to find an eminent monk in order to find a way to stabilize his soul. He always has nightmares at night."

Master Yin Kong's eyes suddenly lit up.His reaction did not escape the eyes of Emperor Yong'an, and he continued: "I still have an agreement with him, and we will meet again in the next life. If you can do it, tell me what to do. If you can't, I will I will ask Duke Sui to take you back."

Master Yinkong said: "I have nightmares at night, but I suffered from the past life?"

Emperor Yong'an narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not answer.Master Yinkong continued: "Cuchu is a person with great merit and virtue, but the poor monk Guan Zuchu is not very old, it is difficult to accumulate such a great merit at a young age, so the poor monk ventured to guess that it may be a person from the previous life. What did you do so that you have immeasurable merit in this life. Your Majesty said that you are always a nightmare, maybe there is something left over from the previous life."

Emperor Yong'an tapped the handrail with his fingers, and after a long while, he said, "He is, Su Hui."

Master Yinkong nodded slightly.For an eminent monk like him, Su Hui Zhe is nothing new. He also knows about Zhugu in the Western Regions, and even discussed Buddhism with him.Without asking if he remembered any great meritorious deeds he had done in his previous life, Master Yinkong said: "For a person with such great merit, his soul is naturally stable. But the poor monk also has a way to reassure your majesty. The poor monk I have traveled to the Western Regions and had contact with the Buddhism of the Western Regions, they have similar methods."

"What method?"

Emperor Yong'an and Master Yinkong were talking in the Meditation Pavilion, and Zhang Xian, Feng Xi, Chang Jing and Xiaohui felt anxious.Lin Xieshan stood behind Shunxiu, and did not explain.Zhuo Ji looked at the flowers and plants in the yard, feeling very calm in his heart.The door of Meditation Pavilion opened, and everyone looked at it. Emperor Yong'an came out and ordered: "Go back to Yangxin Palace. Lin Qing, take Master Yinkong to prepare. Zhang Xian."

"The slaves obey the order."

No need for Wansui to say anything, Zhang Xian knew what Wansui wanted him to do.

Lin Xieshan left with Zhang Xian and Yin Kong, and Emperor Yong'an took Zhuo Ji's hand back to Yangxin Palace.After entering the house, Zhuo Ji asked, "What do I need to do?"

Emperor Yong'an: "It's good to lie on your stomach, but it will hurt a little, you have to be patient. I don't know if it will help, but I should ask for peace of mind."

Zhuo Ji: "People can tell at a glance that I have great merit and virtue, so I should still have real abilities."

Emperor Yong'an took Zhuo Ji to the hot spring for a while, and then asked him to put on pajamas and go to bed to wait.When Lin Xieshan took Master Yinkong away, he had a general idea of ​​what he was going to do, so when he came, Master Yinkong had prepared the things he might need.After waiting for about an hour, Lin Xieshan, Master Yinkong and Zhang Xian came.Emperor Yong'an asked Feng Xi, Chang Jing, and Xiaohui to go out, leaving Zhang Xian in the house, and Lin Xieshan did not follow.

Putting a tray on the long table beside the bed, Master Yinkong washed his hands, opened the tools he was going to use, and said, "Please take off your clothes and get down."

Zhuo Ji's head was full of question marks, this is obviously a tattoo tool.There were three bowls on the tray, and Zhuo Ji saw that there were yellow, red and colorless liquids in them.The colorless liquid Zhuo Ji guessed was clear water.
