Chapter 57: Sirius appears

Views:

In front of the Tai Chi Hall of the'Qi State' Palace, one hour after the Dongfang Red Belt people burned it down. The emperor of Qi State came here.

Looking at the "Tai Chi Hall" that was in ruins and still emitting heavy smoke, the Emperor of Qi State Zheng Yuan had red eyes and clenched his fists. When he saw the banners hanging on the pillars in front of the "Tai Chi Hall" , Is even more angry.

"Jie Li! I will make you pay." Zheng Yuan gritted his teeth and said word by word.

At this time, beside the emperor of Qi State, there was a gentleman who was about 30 years old and had a pale face. This man was gentle and calm, and his white Confucian costume looked elegant and free from the dust. The impression given to people is by no means a person rolling in the officialdom, because he does not have the insidious and insidious atmosphere in the officialdom. This person is the talented person sent by'Yingtian Pavilion' to help the Emperor of'Qi State' dominate the world. As for his name, I will tell your friends later.

The person saw that Zheng Yuan was already angry and was about to lose his mind, so he calmly said to Zheng Yuan, "Your Majesty, calm down! As the king of a country, you have to face the landslide and not change your face. If you lose your calm, it will affect everyone around you. Thoughts. This will surely cause greater riots."

Zheng Yuan heard this person's words and knew that he must be calm at this time, so he took a deep breath to calm his excitement. But at this time, Lord Wei Wei, who was in charge of public security in Luoyang, hurried over, and sat on the ground with fright when he saw everything in front of him, thinking that it is no wonder that the guards of the palace were not allowed to see him a while ago. It turned out that such a big thing happened.

Zheng Yuan glanced at Master Wei Wei, and asked angrily: "Is there anything you have to see now? Say it quickly."

Wei Wei hurriedly fell to his knees: "Your Majesty Qi! The Weichen has important matters to report."

"speak!"

Master Wei Wei looked at the emperor's face and bit his head and said: "Just now there was a riot in the capital. Countless shops were looted and burned by criminals and several people were injured. The capital is in chaos nowadays. The criminals are still hanging up banners all over the city with the words..." He didn't dare to talk about it anymore!

When Zheng Yuan heard that there was a riot in even the capital, he was even more angry, holding back his anger and saying, "What do you write? Tell me!"

Wei Wei said cautiously: "It says: "He who burns the palace, Jie. So is Li Khan!"

"Damn it! You have such a major responsibility for the security of Gyeonggi, and the gangsters are so rampant, doing whatever you want under your nose. What you are doing every day, it is simply negligence. The people dragged out and killed!" Zheng Yuan really couldn't bear it. Live, now that the other party has made the city full of wind and rain, this Jie Li Khan sent people to burn the palace can not be concealed, the prestige of the'Qi Kingdom' and his face as the emperor will be completely lost. Of course Zheng Yuan was looking for a punching bag at this time, and the unfortunate Master Wei Wei was naturally the most suitable candidate.

"Wait!" Seeing that Zheng Yuan had lost his composure, the white scholar hurriedly stopped the imperial army. "Your Majesty is not the time to pursue the responsibility. We must first stabilize the people's hearts and come up with a solution. If you kill Master Wei Wei now, it will only make things worse."

Zheng Yuan calmed down for a while and said, "Sir. This is very true. I will let you go, and immediately mobilize all the soldiers in the guard to martial law. Anyone who walks outside without permission will act on conspiracy, and I will send the forbidden army to act with you. . Immediately inform the city defense army to close the city gate, and no one is allowed to leave the city without my will. You will bring someone to search the capital for me, even if the prince’s mansion is not let go, you must give me this group of bastards. Fuck it out."

"Thank your Majesty for not killing! The Weichen must commit his crimes and make meritorious deeds." After speaking, he immediately got up and went to work nonstop.

Zheng Yuan issued several orders in a row, and returned to the imperial study room in his harem full of anger. He wanted to think about the countermeasures with that Confucian scholar.

"Sir, let’s see how to deal with this matter. If we don’t handle it well, it will inevitably make my'Qi State' face disgraced, and it will make the people's minds fluctuate. Then the'Qi State' is in danger! And why does this Jieli Khan do this? Is he trying to retaliate for failing to get enough food and grass from us? Then this Jie Li is too small, and this is the demeanor that a king of a country should have." Zheng Yuan said, sitting on the dragon chair with a sad expression.

"As I look at this matter from now on, Jieli should have done it. Did your majesty forget that two days ago, a secret agent in the territory of the'Turkic' came to the news. It is said that when Jieli attacked our country, someone attacked his tent and caused it? An extremely huge loss. I remember that I thought this matter might be wrong at the time, and ordered the spy to find out the matter. Now it seems that it should be true."

"Mister meant to say that Jieli burned my'Taiji Temple' to avenge his robbing of his tooth tent? But how could Jieli blame Qi Guo for this matter. Mr. knows best, what is it? Did you order a raid on Jieli's tooth tent now?" Zheng Yuan couldn't help being surprised when he heard this.

"Although Your Majesty did not do this, but the'Turkic' tooth tent was robbed, not only Jie Li Khan will think that we sent people to do it, I am afraid that everyone in the world will think so! So Jie Li in order to save face, he Something must be done, and obviously this fire-burning'Tai Chi Hall' is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Damn! Who framed me? This person who ransacked the'Turkic' tooth tent is really vicious. He clearly wants to provoke the contradiction between the'Qi Kingdom' and the'Turkic' in order to profit from it. Could it be Chen? The country's people did it?" Zheng Yuan couldn't help thinking.

"Probably not, the army of the'Chen State' is very good at water warfare, and the cavalry has always been its weakness. On the vast grassland, even my'Qi' iron cavalry dare not fight against the'Turkic' cavalry, let alone them. As for who is secretly tricking the ghost, we still need to investigate for a while and can't be anxious. The most important thing for us now is how to stabilize the people's mind, so that it will not embarrass Your Majesty too much, nor allow Jie Li's ideas to come true. Your Majesty must Be patient, now we must not go to war with the "Turkic". The basic national policy set by your majesty must not be changed, otherwise all previous efforts will be abandoned. Once the original strategy is abandoned against the "Turkic", we will be in dire straits for the "Qi Kingdom". "The Confucian scholar in white reminded.

"Naturally, I know this, what a man can do, let alone I. It's just that the people in the city already know that this matter was done by the Turks. If we didn't say anything, wouldn't the people's minds have been lost? And I will become too. The laughingstock of the people of the world."

The Confucian thought for a while and said: "There is a way to solve this problem. Not only will Jie Li Khan's plan fail, but also the whole country can unite and work together."

"Really? If you have any tricks, please teach me quickly."

"It's actually very simple. We insisted that the person who burned the Tai Chi Hall was sent by Chen Guo. And the reason why those banners said Jie Li Khan did it is that Chen Guo wants to put blame on it." "Turkic" so that we can go to war with the "Turkic" in order to reap the benefits of the fishermen. Your Majesty, you are wise to see through the other party's tricks, and according to the criminals caught, this is indeed the case. In this way, we will point the contradiction to the "Chen State", the whole country. After hearing this, the people will definitely hate them. Your Majesty issued a war list again, vowing to the death to make the'Chen Guo' pay the price, the people will naturally respond positively, and these will not destroy our original strategic goals, and even return When it comes to the purpose of boosting morale and boosting the people, even some ministers in the DPRK who have been dissatisfied with your Majesty's use of troops for the'Chen State' for years, I am afraid they have nothing to say."

After Zheng Yuan heard this, his face finally showed a smile of joy, "Okay! Sir, this is a very clever plan. This is equivalent to turning a bad thing into a good thing. I will immediately let the servant handle it." Forged evidence like this is a secret of heaven. Zheng Yuan is more relieved to let his own personal eunuch to handle the matter. This may be the mind of all emperors in all dynasties!

"Your Majesty can also send someone to the'Turkic' and inform the other party about this. On the surface, it is to inform the other party of the conspiracy of the'Chen Guo' to frame the'Turkic'. In fact, this is to let Jie Li Khan know about us. 'Qi Guo' will never engage in evil with him, no matter what he does in the future, we will let'Chen Guo' carry the responsibility, so that Jie Li will give up and burn the'Tai Chi Palace' like fire and things will not happen again. No matter what Jie Li Khan said, we must insist that this matter has nothing to do with them. Also, by the way, inquire about the attack on the'Turkic' tooth tent."

"Yeah! That's what the sir is thinking about. Tomorrow I will send a confidant to the Turkic. I am afraid that Jie Li Khan will be disappointed this time!"

"One more thing, your Majesty, we must rebuild the'Tai Chi Hall' as soon as possible."

Zheng Yuan frowned and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to rebuild? Sir should know that now my'Qi State' treasury is not full, and the war has just ended. It is estimated that the losses in various places will be reported in a few days. This is still being used. When it comes to money, can’t the'Tai Chi Temple' be rebuilt in two years?"

"Your Majesty!'Tai Chi Hall' is now a symbol of my'Qi State'. If we don't build it every day, the people will be uneasy. And if we don't rebuild it as soon as possible, the hostile forces will speculate that our'Qi State' may be empty in the national treasury. The delay in rebuilding the'Tai Chi Hall' will give these people the idea of taking advantage of the emptiness, but once your Majesty immediately decrees to rebuild, it will show the strength of our economy and make the Xiaoxiaozhi dare not fight with our country. This is something that must be done in order to calm the people's mind and calm the foreign aggression." These words of Confucian scholars coincided with Dongfanghong.

Zheng Yuan pondered for a long time. After all, money is being used everywhere now, and the cost of rebuilding the'Tai Chi Temple' is not a small amount. Can he be embarrassed! But in the end, Zheng Yuan listened to the opinions of the Confucian scholars and decided to rebuild the'Tai Chi Temple' immediately. As for the losses in various places after a few days were reported, I am afraid that he had to let the officials below solve it by themselves!

In this way, the monarch and his ministers discussed in the Imperial Study Room until dawn before they broke up, and under the decision of the two,'Chen Guo' was unluckily charged with blaming the'Turkic' and burning the'Tai Chi Hall'. Ugh! It seems that this trick of framing and planting is the same from the emperor to the poor. Of course, it is impossible for them not to do this, because four days later, when Zheng Yuan's hands had nothing to report, Zheng Yuan could only accept the facts. But he thought this was fine, otherwise he would really have to grab the opponent and insist that Jie Li sent it. On the contrary, it would be difficult to handle it. Anyway, now that he has prepared a scapegoat, he will no longer worry about being unable to treat the Chinese. Confess.

After leaving the imperial study room, the scholar in white went to the stargazing platform in the imperial palace. He raised his head and looked at the night sky before dawn, thinking of something unknown in his heart. He was faintly disturbed in his heart, and he actually didn't say something to the emperor tonight. For example, the sturdy building of "Tai Chi Hall" may not be accomplished overnight even if it is set on fire. According to the guards, the other party actually completed it in only half of the incense. Think about how terrible it is! How did they do that? And what happened to the loud noise that the guards said? Furthermore, according to the words of Lord Wei Wei and the court guards, the total number of the opponent this time is as many as 100 people. How did these people get into the capital? They would never stay at an inn or hostel, so where do they live? If these people have been lurking in the capital for a long time, they have not discovered such a powerful force. Thinking about it, they can't help but feel cold and sweat!

Among all the questions, the one that most feared and worried Confucian scholars was the force that sneaked on the'Turkic' tooth tents. Who were these people? He was able to sack the'Turkic' tooth tent and obviously Jie Li Khan did not receive the information, and what is the purpose of these people? The Confucian scholar already felt that the danger was approaching, but he didn't know what kind of danger it would be. This was the worst thing.

It is impossible to say that he has no clues at all, but the Confucian really can't believe his thoughts in his heart. Because he also thought of a group of people, this group was a group of people who had been against the'Yingtian Pavilion' for thousands of years, and it was true that he thought of Dongfanghong's sect's'Adverse Heaven Sect'. But is this possible? Does'Nigerian Sect' have this strength? The looting of the'Turkic' tooth tent is something that even the'Qi' army can't do. Can the other party do it? Is it possible that'Tian Tianzong' can burn the'Tai Chi Hall' in an instant? Wait for these to make the Confucian scholar put a big question mark. To tell the truth, he could not believe that this was done by the'Nigerian Sect', otherwise it would be the most terrible thing,'Yingtian Pavilion' I am afraid that there will be difficulties, and the mission entrusted to him by the division will also be in jeopardy. And he couldn't tell the emperor all of this, otherwise if Zheng Yuan knew that all of these things turned out to be the opponent of'Yingtian Pavilion' who did it to attack'Yingtian Pavilion', he really didn't know what the emperor would do.

Looking at the vast night sky above his head, the scholar was meditating. At this time, the stars in the night sky attracted his attention. In the past, every star observation would be purple and clear, and the central palace would be bright. This is a warning from the sky that the world will return to the Qi Kingdom, otherwise the Yingtian Pavilion would not send disciples to assist. The emperor of Qi State, and the facts have proved that everything is as the astrology said. Of course, the Northwest "Sirius" still glows red from time to time, and even the Northwest "Sirius" seems to be more active in recent years. In the eyes of everyone, the "Sirius" represents the Turks because they are in the north and they are now powerful. . Although the'Turkic' was powerful, the Confucian scholars did not put them in their eyes. After all, it was the foreign country Yidi that would never become a climate.

But today, his night star observation suddenly discovered that there was a faint red light in the middle palace that was very similar to the northwestern "Sirius", and the real "Sirius" star turned out to be much dimmed. This Confucian was not surprised. small. What does this show? 'Sirius' stands for'Turkic' and is equivalent to their khan. Today's'Turkic' sent people to burn the'Tai Chi Hall' can be said to be arrogant. It should be brighter for the astrological northwest of'Sirius', but it is actually bleak! On the contrary, there was a faint red light in the middle palace. Could it be that Jie Li Khan came to the capital in person? Only this kind of explanation should correspond to the astrology, but is it possible? The conclusion is of course impossible, but what else does the astrological sign indicate? Who came to the capital? There will be red light in the middle palace. This person must be very important. Is there anyone in the Turkic that is better than Jie Li? Is it wrong to think that "Sirius" represents Jie Li in the past? Confucian scholar fell into deep thought again, and he really couldn't figure it out.

This is also China's cultural tradition since ancient times. From China to the emperor to the people, they firmly believe that the stars in the night sky represent the people on the earth, and the important constellations represent the important people. And if you really want to analyze it like this, wouldn't Dongfanghong's family live in Chang'an in the northwest? Now that he is in Luoyang and the red light appears in the middle palace, it is the same as Dongfanghong! Even after Dongfanghong left Luoyang, the red light still haunted the Central Palace, which seemed to indicate that Dongfanghong was about to enter Luoyang.

Confucian scholars saw this scene, and two others saw it in the same way. The first one was Dongfanghong’s master. He stood by the secluded cottage and looked at the stars in the night sky and couldn’t help but smiled, because he could see the evil spirit revealed by the ray of red light, and this was the same as that on Dongfanghong’s body. How similar is "Sky Fiend Blood Light"! With the power of one person, light can be revealed in the middle palace, which symbolizes imperial power, and you can imagine how terrifying Dongfanghong is. This means that Shimen’s mission for a thousand years may really be achieved this time, so of course he will laugh.

But the other person who saw this scene couldn't smile, not only couldn't smile, but also a little worried. He is the current pavilion master of Yingtian Pavilion, whose surname is Yuan Tiangang. If Dongfanghong knew that his future enemy would be the famous Yuan Tiangang in history, this would be an exhaustive plan. After knowing 500 years later, Yuan Tiangang, who was hailed as a "half fairy", really didn’t know that he would return. Do you have the confidence to continue playing.

However, it is Yuan Tiangang who has no confidence now, because under his long-term observation of the astrology, he found a fatal mistake in the past, that is, the northwestern "Sirius" star does not represent the "Turkic" nor does it represent the Jie Li Khan. And tonight’s astrology proved this even more, so he realized the seriousness of the problem, if'Sirius' was not'Turkic' who would it be? Who else in the world has such power to influence astrology? This person is terrible! In the same way, he also thought that his disciple might not realize it yet! And he was also a little worried that his disciple might not be able to deal with the person who represented the'Sirius', so Yuan Tiangang did something that'Yingtian Pavilion' hadn't done for nearly a thousand years, and decided to send another disciple to help.

Dongfanghong is now on his way home. He never expected that his trip to Beijing would have caused so many changes. What made him even more unexpected was that'Yingtian Pavilion' sent out two disciples to deal with him for the first time. It would not be a good thing to designate Dongfanghong, and this trouble will surely be more in the future. It really should be the word'Anyone.' Duo Lao'.
