The vassal state of Ximu
after the collapse of the former state of Zhongyan, it was completely reduced to a subsidiary state of Ximu, and the emperor was defeated and disappeared, which made the people of Zhongyan fall into great panic.
The golden eaves and red tiles of the palace are still magnificent, and the thick wall carries the track of history. Zhongyan, a subsidiary of Ximu, was completely taken over by Ximu.
Because of the change of Dynasty, the huge imperial palace seems to be in a mess. Even after LAN Jinchen repaired the destroyed Zhonghe palace, the traces of the explosion can still be seen.
The palace people and the masters of the palace also lived in fear. Only after the arrival of King naximuyue a few days ago, he began to take over everything in the state of Yan.
The change of imperial power is bound to cause some resistance from the rest of the party, and the women who live for the emperor in the harem are also waiting for their fate.
In the study, Jun Mo Yan is sitting on the Dragon chair behind him. His white hair is scattered behind him. The blood mole in the corner of his eyes is charming. Liu Zirui is standing beside him, while Mo Yu and Mo Dian are loyal outside the door.
"Sir, what should we do with the officials of the state of Yan? Or do you want them to continue to serve as ministers in the court? "
Although he is a general, Liu Zirui was originally cultivated by Jun Mo Yan. Otherwise, he would not have been dormant around Yin Cangtian and would not have been found. His mind is not simple.
"How many subjects are there?"
Jun Mo Yan's peach blossom eyes are slightly astringent, and his tone is plain and calm. He seems very calm about taking over such a big country.
"On the surface, most of the people are submissive to Ximu, but on the surface, there are still many people who are doing some evil things. It seems that they want to restore the country!"
Liu Zirui had been in the state of Zhongyan for a long time. While he was garrisoning, he was also carefully observing the behavior of all the people. Naturally, there was no lack of small movements of those who were calculating.
Jun Mo Yan said with a smile: "restore the country? If the order goes on, all the officials above the third grade will be dismissed and investigated. Those below the third grade will be promoted according to their official titles. I want to see if there is no such moth in the court. Who else will have evil intentions after those little officials are promoted! "
"Good! I'll do it now! "
Sitting alone for a moment, Jun Mo Yan called out to the door: "Mo rain!"
"Third Master!"
"What's happened to Ximu recently?"
At the same time, the missing in Jun Mo Yan's eyes also makes Mo Yu understand. What the Third Master asked must be the news about the princess.
"It's all the same. I heard that the princess has asked the emperor to go to court early. However, I heard that the princess is not well recently. She has been resting in xuange all the time and rarely shows up!"
"Why? What did Murray say? "
"He
"Third Master, Ximu's secret letter!"
Just when Mo Yu opened his mouth again, Mo Dian trotted in and quickly handed the sealed envelope to Jun Mo Yan.
Next moment, Jun Mo Yan waved and said: "go down!"
Mo Yan's handwriting, at the first moment, made Jun Mo Yan a little excited. He naturally knew it was from Lin xuanzhi.
Carefully open the envelope, shake open the rice paper, ink into the nose, miss more spread, and only a few numbers on the letter, "OK, don't hang up!"
Juanxiu's handwriting is just like Lin Xuan's, including the simple and concise handwriting, which also makes Jun Mo Yan's eyes warm. Although I don't know how Dong Qingcang explained it to Lin Xuan, I'm afraid she already knew what she came out to do.
Thinking of Jun Mo Yan, he wrote quickly, filled himself with rice paper, and gave it to the ink and electricity outside the hall. Sigh, negative hand and stand in the window lattice, thoughts floating away.
*
it is located in the border between Ximu Kingdom and Ximu kingdom. The wind is blowing in the open valley, the mountains are rolling, and there are towering and craggy Cliffs on both sides. At this time, a pair of soldiers and horses are slowly shuttling through the valley. As long as they walk through the valley, they will reach the territory of Ximu kingdom.
In the troop, the chariots are deeply rutted on the ground, the soldiers and soldiers are constantly on their way, and the rear pay vehicles are carefully protected by the soldiers.
"General Liu, after this valley, you can reach the border of the state of Yan!"
At the front of the procession, Liu Huairen was one of the riders, and several other deputy generals were also in important positions.
"OK, inform the rear team and speed up!"
"Yes
When the deputy general got the order, he turned his horse around and ran backward. With the military order, the movements of the soldiers were indeed accelerated.
The valley is winding, and the high cliffs on both sides whine and whine with the wind. Fortunately, it's day. If you travel at night, I'm afraid you can't hear the sound of cranes in the valley too much.
Click - click - click -
all around us can only hear the footsteps of Shen Yin and the soldiers, and suddenly the strange sound in the air made Liu Huairen nervous.
Hold the reins, ears erect, listen: "what sound?"The deputy general also made a nervous four eye inspection, and one of them said, "it's like the sound of a broken stone?"
"Well? Go and have a look
Just as the man wanted to investigate, another deputy general said, "don't worry, general. Maybe this rock is exposed to the sun, which will cause the sound of rock cracking! There's no need to worry. I've observed this peak and cliff for some years, so there won't be any rockfall! "
"Let's go as soon as possible!"
Because of the general's words, Liu Huairen's military uniform trembled twice, waved his iron arm, and quickened his pace again. But on the towering cliff, Liu Huairen and others did not find that danger is coming!
As the marching speed increased, the leaders were about to walk out of the valley. However, at a distance of 100 meters, suddenly, a huge rock fell from the sky.
Boulders rolling down the cliff, mixed with countless small stones, very powerful, the sound of boulders rolling down, startled the horses, let many horses keep kicking their hooves, startled countless.
Liu Huairen tightly reined in the reins, raised his sword in his hand and yelled: "retreat, the whole army retreat!"
The huge stones are still rolling down fiercely, and the huge stones fall on the ground of the valley, which is dusty and in a mess. But only half a cup of tea time, when the dust settled, there were no boulders rolling down on the cliff. The soldiers who rushed to the front of the horses to protect Liu Huairen waved away the dust and cried out in horror: "general, no good!"
At the time of the incident, Liu Huairen, who was protected in the central government, heard that he came down from the frightened horse and walked to the front. He could not help but scold: "Damn it
In the middle of the valley, which is not spacious, you can walk out of the valley with a distance of 100 meters ahead, but the road is completely blocked because of the sudden falling boulder.
Countless huge stones piled up in the valley, blocking the whole valley several meters high. The cliffs on both sides are also full of gravel and sand. Once you climb up, you will slide down because of the sand under your feet.
"Come on, move the huge stone quickly!"
Liu Huairen was so angry that he didn't expect that he would have a bad start. He came all the way from the state of Southern Chu. He was about to reach the state of Zhongyan, but he didn't expect that there would be changes on the way.
The deputy general and others quickly commanded the soldiers behind him. Although there were many people and great strength, the size of the boulder was too big. Almost a stone could hold dozens of people. It was not easy to remove the stone.
"General, why don't you step back! If you leave this valley and find another way to Zhongyan, the boulder is too big. If you insist on moving it, I'm afraid it won't be finished in a day or two! "
When Liu Huairen heard the speech, he glared angrily, "retreat? It's easy for you to say that if you go around the valley, you are already in the state of Zhongyan. Now you want our general to take a step back and take a long way to Zhongyan. Isn't it more time-consuming? "
"This General, the general is also afraid of another accident in this valley... "
"Well, what are you afraid of! It's said that the general ordered us to pull the chariots over, and ten chariots hit the boulder at the same time. The general doesn't believe this evil! "
"Yes..."
The deputy general ran to the rear helplessly and directed the soldiers to pull the chariots that would only be used when they hit the city gate to the intersection blocked by the boulder. The soldiers also quickly placed Optimus Prime on the chariots. After the chariots were arranged in order, several soldiers pushed ten chariots together and rushed to the boulder.
However, there are no rules for the rolling of the boulder. It is disorderly blocked at the intersection. The chariot knocks down a boulder, and the boulder on it will fall immediately. It is useless to do so many times.
"General, step back!"
"Yes, general! We can't open this Boulder, general
Several generals and many soldiers are looking forward to Liu Huairen. Not far away from Zhongyan, they all want to get there as soon as possible. However, heaven doesn't want to be beautiful. It happened in the valley.
For the sake of soldiers and physical strength, and in case of another accident, many people began to beg the supreme leader Liu Huairen.
Seeing that his soldiers and Deputy generals were helpless and anxious, Liu Huairen looked at Stonehenge carefully again. Then he turned around and rode on the horse. In the sight of all the soldiers, he suddenly stepped on the horse's back and flew to the top of Stonehenge several meters high. As a general, Liu Huairen would not give up easily.
Who knows, Liu Huairen, who was lucky enough, found that the fact was much worse than he thought when he climbed the boulder to the top.
He thought that he had climbed to the top of the boulder. Unexpectedly, in front of him, there were many higher and bigger boulders standing in the forest. Looking at the distance, at least 50 meters were covered by boulders.
And such a situation, indeed, as they said, if you want to get through, it can't be completed in one or two days. Frustrated by the facts, Liu Huairen, after sliding down the Stonehenge, solemnly ordered: "the whole army retreat, return according to the original road! Take the road from the other side to Zhongyan
"The whole army retreats -"
several deputy generals happily gave orders. Fortunately, the general listened to their suggestions. Otherwise, if he still fought against the Stonehenge, he would only be exhausted!The army had to retreat to the entrance because the road was blocked by huge stones. It took time for the troops to retreat, and the order of the troops needed to be reorganized, which was a waste of time.
And just as the team finished adjusting in place and retreated towards the entrance, there was a roaring sound again on the cliff, and this time the boulder still fell without warning.
The boulders scattered all over the place, but this time, they upset the whole army. Because many of the boulders did not fall in front this time, but many of them fell in the position where the soldiers and horses were.
Powerful stones hit the ground is a deep pit, not to mention hit on people or chariots, there was a great commotion in the moment. Soldiers scurrying, horses running in panic, chariots scattered everywhere, the dust was aroused, mixed with the sometimes splashing blood, and there was a cry in all directions -
*
two days later, when the news came to Jun Mo Yan in Ximu, he rubbed the letter in his hand and thought about the probability of things happening.
Originally, when he got the news that the southern Chu state was quietly sending troops, he had already started to plan. But he didn't expect to get the news that the soldiers and horses of the southern Chu state were trapped in the valley formed by the two peaks, and the outsiders couldn't get in, and the people inside couldn't get out. And the hinterland of the valley was the fortress connecting the two countries.
It is said that the peak over there belongs to Yunfeng mountain. For many years, there has not been any stone avalanche in Yunfeng mountain. Is it man-made or God's will this time?!
"What do you think, third brother?"
With Jun Mo Yan came to the kingdom of Shen Tian, looking at his trance, some puzzled asked.
"Second brother, don't you think it's too coincidental?"
Shen Tian scoffed: "there are so many coincidences in the world. I want to say that this is the move of the villains of the southern Chu Kingdom. God's will makes them think that no one knows if they send troops quietly? It's a pity that heaven doesn't fulfill people's wishes! "
"Is it?"
Jun Mo Yan takes a deep look at Shen Tian. He still has reservations about this matter, but Shen Tian, who has always been simplistic, is afraid to add trouble to himself no matter how much he talks with him.
"Don't think about it. Song Qingshu already has news. When will you leave?"
Shen Tian shakes the tea in the cup and looks at Jun Mo Yan. The turbulence in the world really makes people sleepless. He went to Zhongyan with him. Now he has completely incorporated Zhongyan into the territory of Ximu. He has changed the name of the country to Ximu vassal state. The next step is to compete with other countries.
"I'll leave tomorrow, and the vassal state will be given to you first, second brother!"
After thinking for a moment, Jun Mo Yan opened his mouth and said to Shen Tian. Shen Tian looked at him and asked, "ah? "Give it to me?"
Jun Mo Yan frowned: "otherwise? Flying eagle and flying tiger will stay with you
"No? I still want to go back to Tianshan gate! "
Jun Mo Yan dusted his clothes, stood up and glanced at Shen Tian: "as king Ximu, you should make some contribution too!"
"Oh, no, no, third brother, I have something to say. I'll accompany you to the vassal state just to see the local conditions and customs here, but I don't want to bring such things! I'm not the king of Ximu! "
Shen Tian is eager to put aside everything that may restrict his freedom. However, in the face of today's Jun Mo Yan, he is speechless.
"Second brother, it's very clear in the Royal genealogy that you have the blood of the former Emperor. If you don't want to admit it, let your own blood dry!"
"Ah, you..."
Looking at Jun Mo Yan's back, Shen Tian is speechless. What he says is really relaxed. Let the blood dry How cruel! Sure enough, a man who has become a family has only his wife and children in his eyes. His second brother can no longer manage him!
However, Shen Tian, who was ordered to stay in the vassal state by Jun Mo Yan, started a miserable career that he could not run in the future. And Jun Mo Yan took Feibao feilang, Mo Yumo and Mo Dian, as well as 100 bodyguards to the state of song and yuan.
The Centennial capital is located in the imperial palace of the capital of the song and Yuan Dynasties. Pedestrians are in a hurry, and their faces are tense and worried. Today, the traditional early Dynasty has been extended for a long time.
"The emperor, that west wood month king suddenly visits, the subordinate suspects that he has ulterior motives!"
As the Prime Minister of the song and Yuan Dynasties, Shui Xi is the elder brother and uncle of song Qingshu, the empress of the current Dynasty. Shuixi, who was also the important position of the country's uncle and prime minister, had no comparable position in the court of the song and Yuan Dynasties.
No matter what his style is, he has a younger sister who is a queen, which is beyond his reach.
Song Nan's expression was tense and serious. He asked at the right time, "what's the prime minister's suggestion?"
"This..."
Shuixi didn't know how to answer the questions, but another of the officials walked out of the queue and said, "father, I think it's better to wait for the moon king to arrive, and then ask him about his visit. If he has any bad intentions, then..."
"Brother, that's not true! So far, the intention of the king of the moon's visit is not clear. My younger brother thought that he might take this opportunity to make friends with the king of the moon. After all, there is no one in the five countries in the world who can control his power! "Before Song QingHan finished speaking, he was interrupted by song Qingshu, and their different opinions soon divided the officials into two groups, holding different views on their suggestions.
"Minister of rites, the reception dinner is under your supervision. We'll discuss it later!"
After that, Song Nan took the lead in leaving the Jinluan hall. The sudden visit of Yuewang made the state of song and yuan fall into a tense atmosphere.
For Southern Song Dynasty, he was scared and resentful of Mo Yan. The destruction of the capital three years ago cost him almost half of the national treasury to repair it. Now Ximu has defeated the state of Zhongyan, and has become a strong one of the five countries. Facing him, Southern Song Dynasty is quite headache and tangled.
After the early Dynasty, song Qingshu and song QingHan, who were wearing official robes, met and walked on the steps. Song QingHan glared at Song Qingshu and said, "it seems that the second younger brother has a chance to win the visit of the moon king?"
"Oh, what do you mean? I'm sure you don't know what Mo Yan, the king of the moon, stands for now. If you are against him in the song and Yuan Dynasties, do you think that with the influence of Taiji palace, the song and Yuan congresses will have good fruit to eat? "
Song QingHan disdains to sneer: "Oh? The two younger brothers mean to be kind to a man who once destroyed the capital of song and Yuan Dynasties, or to hold him high? Second brother, you are really an eye opener to the prince
The sound of footsteps came from behind. Just as song QingHan and song Qingshu looked at each other and were at a crossfire, one of them said coldly: "the two brothers quarreled about this matter. It's better to think about how to deal with it when the king of the moon comes!"
When song QingHan and song Qingshu look back at the same time, they can see that they are similar in appearance to song Qingshu, but song qingran, who is indifferent, says something serious.
Suddenly, song QingHan sneered: "it seems that the prince and your brothers can never stand on the same front. You are afraid of the king, but the prince is not afraid!"
Then song QingHan threw off his clothes and walked away quickly. Song Qingshu turned his eyes to look at Song qingran and said, "fourth brother, it's rare to see you meddle in the affairs between me and the prince!"
Song qingran tugged his lips and said, "second brother, don't think too much. I just don't want to see the enemy. You two are still so tit for tat! Naturally, I never want to get involved in your business! "
"Song qingran! Don't forget that you and I are the same mother
Song Qingshu drinks after song qingran, but the figure walking in front of him stops slightly, and then leaves without saying anything.
Song qingran was also born to his mother and father. They are brothers. But song QingHan always let him sit in the crown prince's seat because his father never forgot his former queen.
Over the years, song Qingshu also understood a little about the contest of imperial power. This time, the arrival of Jun Mo Yan might be a turning point for him.
"Second prince, the empress is waiting for you in Shufang hall!"
"Good!"
Before Song QingHan left the palace to return to the palace, a little maid called him. I don't know what the empress is looking for, so when song QingHan arrives at Shufang hall, he finds out that the empress shuiyerong has prepared lunch.
"Shuer, here you are!"
Shuiyerong is less than 40 years old, and her face is still beautiful with delicate makeup and luxurious dress. It is obvious that song Qingshu's feminine face inherited too much of shuiyerong's beautiful face.
"Empress mother, do you want to find your son's minister?"
Shuiyerong, supported by her maidservant, got up from the soft couch, put her finger on the maid's wrist, and the lotus fingertip was wearing the upper armor. She said gracefully, "but I haven't seen you for a few days, so I'm looking for you to have lunch!"
"Thank you for your concern!"
Song Qingshu's tone is slightly flat, which makes shuiyerong look at him. He sits at the sandalwood table with a sigh and waves to him: "shu'er, come and sit here! My mother wants to ask you something! "
Hearing this, song Qingshu's expression was indifferent. When he sat down at the table, he took the lead in drinking sake, and shuiyerong also timely said: "shu'er, are you in the strange palace?"
Song Qingshu glanced at the empress, nodded and said, "the empress is worried too much, and the children dare not!"
"I dare not! From your attitude towards the empress, you can see that you should have heard the conversation between the empress and your father Shuiyerong holds the silver chopsticks and puts a piece of fish in Song Qingshu's bowl. It seems that he can see through the heart of the people and stare at Song Qingshu's every move.
"Talk? I don't know what the empress mother means
Shuiyerong shakes her head, puts down her chopsticks, takes the silk scarf from her maid, wipes her hands and says, "shu'er, you are born of your mother. Your mother can see your idea naturally. What the empress mother said to your father that day was not what you thought
