Chapter 855 - 855: Secret conversion_2
“Last night, there was indeed a group of men in Black robes who entered the inner city through the southern gate. He even warned the soldiers not to leak this information. Heh, the northern barbarian from Chu Zhou had no idea whose territory the capital was. I only spent one silver coin to get the information from the soldier on duty last night.”
Song tingfeng took a sip of wine and said, ‘”‘They didn’t enter the Imperial City. They disappeared after they entered the inner city. This morning, I asked the silver gongs that patrolled the Imperial City to investigate, and no one saw that group of spies enter the Imperial City.”
He didn’t enter the Imperial City?
Hengyuan was imprisoned somewhere in the inner city? No, it was also possible that they were sent into the Imperial City through secret channels, or even the Imperial Palace, just like how the count of Ping Yuan quietly sent the people he kidnapped into the Imperial City.
“The Taoist priest said that master Hengyuan’s life will not be in danger for a while, so we should have plenty of time. We can’t be too anxious. If Hengyuan is brought into the palace, we will have to break off our relationship with Emperor Yuan jing when we save him.
if that’s the case, I have to leave a way out in advance and make preparations..
can’t save people in a hurry …
inform the brothers who are patrolling the streets. If they find anything unusual in the inner city, or if they see a secret agent in a black robe and a mask, they must inform me immediately, ” Xu Qi ‘an said.
Zhu guangxiao nodded and grunted.
“That’s right, I heard that in three days, the diplomatic mission of the demon barbarians from the North will be entering the capital,” song tingfeng suddenly said.
The demon barbarian envoy is entering the capital? The monster race and barbarian race had just joined forces to take down the Chu Prefecture city. How long had it been? Xu Qi ‘an frowned.
“I’ve never heard of this.”
“His Majesty called for a small court meeting yesterday to discuss this matter in secret. Jiang Jinluo revealed it to us last night when we were drinking at the Academy’s workshop.”
“I know about the War in the North. Based on the delay in the news, the War in the North should have started long ago. Even so, the fact that the demons and barbarians from the North sent a diplomatic mission to the capital is enough to show that the war is not going well …” Xu Qi ‘an pondered and said,
“Aren’t the monsters and barbarians too weak? they’ve already asked for help?”
The Barbarian demons of the North, the great Feng sect, and the witchcraft cult were the three forces that kept each other in check.
Song tingfeng said, ” the cavalry of the Jing Kingdom is the best in the nine states. Before the Battle of Shanhai Pass, the Barbarian cavalry could compete with the cavalry of the Jing Kingdom. After the Battle of Shanhai Pass, the
Barbarian powerhouses were all killed and injured. Now, the cavalry of the Jing Kingdom is the king of the nine states.
I don’t think the War in the North will last long. The barbarians in the North won’t be able to survive this year.
Zhu guangxiao added, “after Ji Zhigu’s death, the monster and barbarian tribes only had one Zhu Jiu, while the witchcraft cult had no lack of high-ranked powerhouses.” Moreover, the battlefield is the home field of the Wizards, and the wizard God religion’s ability to control the corpse soldiers is extremely terrifying. ”
Zhu Jiu had experienced the battle of Chu Prefecture city and was still seriously injured. It was reasonable to think this way … Xu Qi ‘an nodded.
Zhu guangxiao sighed, “compared to the weakening of Da Feng, the three
countries under the control of the witch God religion are on the rise.” If it wasn’t for Lord Wei …”
Zhu guangxiao and song tingfeng were night watchmen and invigilators. They had good vision and could clearly sense the decline of Da Feng’s power.
It was getting worse year by year.
However, their worries for the country and the people were quickly replaced by the tender laughter of the girls.
Song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao each picked a delicate and Pretty Woman, and they hugged them into the house to work hard.
Xu Qi ‘an sat at the table alone, drinking wine in silence. He looked down at the opera in the hall without any expression.
At night, in Xu Erlang’s study.
Xu Qi ‘an held a teacup and listened to Xu Erlang’s recital. He frowned and said, “”Only this much?”
“There have been a lot of things happening in the Hanlin Academy recently. The Imperial court wants to refine military books, so I don’t have much time to memorize the previous Emperor’s daily life Records.” Xu Erlang explained helplessly.
“A book on The Art of War?”
“It’s customary to cultivate military books during every war.” Xu Erlang took a sip of tea and said,
“Let me tell you something. In three days, the diplomatic mission from the demon barbarians of the North will be entering the capital. The War in the North was in full swing. If nothing unexpected happened, the Imperial court would send troops to support the Barbarian demons.
“In fact, when the intelligence from Chu Zhou came, the Imperial court had already made this decision. However, it still needs to be mulled over. Ha, to put it bluntly, it was to encourage people. Tomorrow, the Directorate will be holding a cultural meeting in the Imperial City, and the purpose is to spread the idea of advocating war.”
Huaiqing told me about this before. Oh right, I still have to accompany her to the cultural conference … Xu Qi ‘an remembered.
He had not experienced war in his previous life, but he had read a lot about ancient and modern times. He could understand what Xu Erlang was trying to say.
Mobilizing for every battle had been a common method since ancient times. We must tell the people why we are fighting wars and what is the meaning of fighting wars.
Of course, in this era, the Imperial court did not want to mobilize the common people, but the scholars and officials.
then, are these daily life Records useful to you, big brother? ” Xu Erlang asked.
“There are!”
Xu Qi ‘an gave an affirmative answer and said, ‘
“From this Daily Record, it can be seen that the previous emperor did not ask the human sect for advice on immortality very often, but it was not little either, which means that he had a certain fantasy about immortality.
“But for some reason, he has no desire for immortality. I can’t see the former Emperor’s intention to cultivate for the time being.”
“The previous emperor did not cultivate in the first place.” “For some reason?” Xu Erlang frowned after he finished speaking.
The previous emperor was. smart man and knew his own worth … Xu Qi ‘an smiled but didn’t explain. He said,
“The previous emperor didn’t repair the passageway until his death, but he did have a fantasy about cultivation. I guess the previous emperor might have influenced Emperor yuanjing. You should continue watching the daily recordings and write them down as soon as possible.”
The next day, the rain continued to pour, and the wind blew up the rain, bringing with it a bit of coolness.
Raindrops flowed along the eaves, forming a curtain of water beads.
Summer was gradually coming to an end, and the green seedlings in the fields were also showing signs of turning yellow.
Today was a day off. Xu Erlang stood under the roof and said with emotion, “”Looks like we won’t be able to attend the cultural gathering.”
Xu Qi ‘an walked out of the room and watched the rain with him. He smiled and said, “”1 think so too, so Erlang, let me borrow your official token.”
Opposite the two brothers was the east wing. Xu lingying stood under the eaves, waving a branch and constantly ” cutting ” the water bead curtain under the eaves, enjoying it.
Her little shoes and the bottom of her pants were all wet from the rain.
At this time, Lina was still sleeping, li Miaozhen was meditating in the room, and second uncle Xu was on duty in a straw Cape and a bamboo hat.
Xu Qi ‘an also had something to do today. He had to go to the temple of spiritual treasures to do two things.He wanted to test Luo Yuheng’s true attitude toward him.
Ask about the previous Dao chief of the human sect.
The rain continued to pour as Wei Yuan’s carriage traveled through the rain. The raindrops kept exploding on the roof of the carriage, making crackling sounds.
Da Qing Yi rolled down the window and looked at the rain silently, blurring the world.
At a certain moment, the rain seemed to freeze for a moment, as if it was an illusion.
“The rain can wash away dust, but it can’t wash away a person’s heart,”
An emotional voice filled with vicissitudes of life sounded in the carriage.
Wei Yuan continued to look at the rain and said, “”Could it be that the rain on
Mount Qingyun is not as beautiful as the one here?”
Director Zhao Shou appeared out of nowhere and said with a serious face, “”After the Battle of Shanhai Pass, Da Feng should have risen in power, but because, because …”
Zhao Shou wanted to say something, but he couldn’t remember.
“Because something happened during that period of time. At the end of the year of jingcha, the statue in the abyss cracked, and so did the one in the northeast. In the end, you only won twenty years for the great Feng and the human race. All these years, I’ve been thinking that if he didn’t just stand by, things would’ve been different.”
Wei Yuan was still expressionless, his tone calm, “”Man proposes, God disposes. Nothing in this world will go according to your wishes, nor will it go according to my wishes. The supervisor and you are not the same kind of people.”
Zhao Shou nodded and said, ” the Gu God was an ancient God. He was like a floating duckweed without roots. However, the witch God is different. He ruled the northeast and millions of living beings. He had at least one-third of the human race’s luck.
“If he unseals the seal, no one in the nine regions can stop him. Unless the Confucian Saint is resurrected.”
Wei Yuan sighed. I’ll handle it. I’ve been planning this since last year.
“What if you fail?” Zhao Shou asked.
“Have you ever seen me lose?” Wei Yuan laughed.
The carriage slowly stopped outside the palace gate.
Nangong qianrou released the horse’s reins and pushed open the carriage door. “Foster father, we’ve arrived.”
He looked around the carriage and saw that there was no one else other than Wei Yuan. However, when he was driving, his instincts as a martial artist caught a trace of abnormality, which disappeared in a flash.
Nanzonz Qianrou opened a large umbrella and led Wei Yuan out of the car. The rain pattered on the umbrella.
“Wait for me here,” Wei Yuan said as he took the umbrella.
He held an umbrella and entered the palace alone. His green robes fluttered in the wind and rain as if he was alone, facing the storm of the world..
