"—against the secret door."
In the Nuan Pavilion of Qiantai Palace, Yin Kaiyang landed the last word and stared at Xie Yun with a smile.
Xie Yun stared straight back, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't make a sound.
No one noticed that the commander of the imperial army had dizzy pupils and was in a trance. Even Yuchi Yuanyu and the others who were closest to them could only see that neither of them spoke and they just confronted each other.
The eerie silence lasted for a few breaths, Yin Kaiyang closed his eyes, opened them again, and casually turned to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the minister's meaning regarding the Twelve Golden Men has become very clear these days..."
Xie Yun maintained the posture just now and did not move, but at this moment, Shan Chao, who had been focusing on this side all the time, seemed to have noticed something strange, and suddenly stood out from the unexpected gazes around him.
Yin Kaiyang suddenly interrupted what he was saying to the Holy Majesty, and turned his head to stop it, but it was too late. Shan Chao reached out and grabbed Xie Yun's wrist decisively!
The internal force suddenly penetrated into Xie Yun's meridians from his palm, and the scorching breath rushed into the limbs and bones in an instant, pulling Xie Yun's mind from the illusion!
"...!"
Xie Yun's pupils suddenly contracted and then widened, and the breath that was hanging in his throat was spit out immediately. His whole mind was cleared up, and he suddenly looked at Shan Chao: "You..."
"—What?" Yin Kaiyang interrupted him suddenly with a smile, and asked, "Is Commander Xie feeling unwell?"
At the same time as he asked this sentence, that strange and changing star of white light flashed in his eyes again, but this time he threw it straight at Shan Chao with extreme ruthlessness!
Yin Kaiyang was not as polite to Shan Chao as he was to Xie Yun. If it was just a deterrent just now, now it can be called killing without blood.
Unexpectedly, the single super reaction is completely different from ordinary people. He faced Xuanwu Yinjing Huashuiyue's mana almost immediately, but he was sober-minded and unwavering, and even stepped forward to block Xie Yun's body with a cold tone of warning: "Master Yin, you are so reckless in front of the Holy One!" Presumptuous, isn't it good?"
"..." Surprise flashed across Yin Kaiyang's face, he looked this handsome young man up and down: "...Single guard."
Xie Yun pressed Shan Chao with his backhand under the sleeve of his robe: "Don't look at him!"
Shan Chao didn't move, Yin Kaiyang blinked and laughed.
"Thank you for reminding me, I was being rude." Yin Kaiyang cupped his hands in a very free and easy way, and said with deep meaning: "The single imperial guard really lives up to its reputation... It seems that Ayun's discerning vision has always been pretty good."
Everyone didn't know why, but Commander Xie was already very evil. Yin Kaiyang was even more evil than Xie Yun, and no one spoke at the moment, they all looked at each other and dared not speak.
"It's not a big deal. I think the single imperial guards are young and talented, and they just expressed their feelings." Yin Kaiyang turned to the suspicious emperor, bowed and smiled: "Just now when I talked about the Jinren, what I mean is in these three days. It has already been expressed very clearly. Thinking back to Qin Shihuang who sold the soldiers of the world and cast gold for twelve people, only then did he achieve the unification of all generations and the glory of conferring on Mount Tai. Your Majesty is now visiting Mount Tai in the east, which is exactly the same as the itinerary of the first emperor. Heaven and man sensed that they dreamed of twelve golden men; I think this is the meaning of heaven's hint to His Majesty to follow the old example of disbanding soldiers."
As soon as the words fell to the ground, there was a buzz of discussion in the warm pavilion, and the emperor coughed twice: "It's okay, Yin Aiqing continues to talk."
Yin Kaiyang nodded, turning a blind eye to the questioning officials around him.
"I have been in charge of the secret door for many years. Although I left the capital and hibernated in the rivers and lakes, my loyalty to His Majesty has never been reduced by half. This time I heard that His Majesty is on a tour to the east. He asked people to open the way and escort him along the way. Shocking news."
He paused for a moment, although he said something sensational, the leisurely expression on the half of the face under the mask did not change at all: "I heard a secret report from someone, a group of people who usually provoke troubles, set up a sect without authorization, and are known as martial arts knights. People, actually plan to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime event, the Fengchan Grand Ceremony, to hold some kind of "martial arts conference" on Mount Tai, and elect the so-called "martial arts leader."
"My colleagues don't know anything—" Yin Kaiyang probably thought the word "colleague" was very interesting, so he continued with a smile: "This leader of the martial arts is said to be collectively recommended by people in the world who use knives and guns all day long. He can order the Quartet and even mobilize People who are armed by the people. And this group of people actually want to gather to compete with each other when His Majesty is visiting Mount Tai, as if setting up a small court in private, so it goes without saying that they have wolfish ambitions."
The officials looked at each other, and finally Yuchi Yuanyu, the most senior, frowned and said, "What does the head of Yin mean?"
"Instead of guarding against it day and night, it is better to destroy the soldiers of the world." Yin Kaiyang said sincerely: "I suggest to His Majesty, arrest and kill them all."
"what?"
"Nonsense!"
"How can it be so simple and rude, is this a child's play?!"
Objections in the Nuan Pavilion suddenly arose, and even Empress Wu couldn't help but discouraged: "Your Majesty..."
"Quiet!" The emperor said impatiently: "Whoever has any objections, stand up and say one by one, what does the house full of noise look like?!"
"I don't know much about the folks in Jianghu, but I also know that the Eight Mountains are upright, the four famous schools, Shaolin Wudang, Kongtong and Emei are all martial arts schools that have been passed down for a long time since ancient times. Those who come to participate in the martial arts conference must be famous veterans. How can they all be arrested and killed?" Yuchi Yuanyu couldn't bear it anymore, and there was a clear sense of reproach in his words: "The imperial court resorted to such ruthless measures rashly, which will definitely cause more violent turmoil. Such a remark is absolutely unacceptable, Your Majesty, think twice!"
Yuchi Yuanyu's dissuasion is really old-fashioned, but the emperor has been talking with Yin Kaiyang for three days, and now he can't listen to anything: "According to what Aiqing said, is it true that I'm still afraid of them and have to sacrifice to these people?" Can't help the knights of the rivers and lakes?"
"Dong Xun is a big matter, and everything needs to be cautious, and everything must be done with the safety of the Holy One!" Yu Wenhu couldn't help but said: "Even if the Holy Majesty really wants to deal with it, he needs to take care of it slowly. Kill them all right now?!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Yin Kaiyang stopped him back in a calm manner: "Heroes use martial arts to break the ban. Letting these people hold some kind of martial arts conference on Mount Tai will really pose a threat to the safety of Shengjia. If we don't take this opportunity to solve it in one fell swoop It will be difficult to think about all the problems in the future!"
There was a lot of noise in the warm pavilion, the emperor stood firmly on Yin Kaiyang's side, and quarreled with the important court officials who advocated proceeding carefully.
Shan Chao held Xie Yun's hand tightly, and retreated into the corner half-supported and half-supported. His hands were so strong that Xie Yun was forced to follow him a few steps, only to hear him ask in a low voice, "Are you alright?"
"..." Xie Yun didn't have any expression on his face: "Flowers in the mirror."
"what?"
"Xuanwu secret technique, mirror flowers and water moon, is the look that Yin Kaiyang wanted to put you to death just now."
Shan Chaoxin said that it sounds like a profound method, but I haven't lost a single hair, so this Xuanwu secret technique is not effective from time to time, right
"It's hard to be recruited by people who have no desires, no desires, and a strong will." Xie Yun paused, with a tired sarcasm in his tone: "...forget it."
He glanced back and saw that the two parties in the hall were still arguing endlessly, so the corners of his lips twitched mockingly, and he broke free from Shan Chao's hold on his hand, turned around and wanted to go back.
However, as soon as he took a step, he felt his wrist tighten again, and when he turned his face, he saw Shan Chao frowned: "What are you going to do?"
Xie Yun pointed to several generals with blushing faces and thick necks: "—do you think this bunch of trash can do better than Yin Kaiyang?"
Shan Chao stared at him deeply, and asked, "So what if you can't do it?"
"If you can't do it, the Holy Majesty will send troops to encircle and suppress the martial arts conference as Yin Kaiyang said, and kill all the famous and decent families. The gods and ghosts will truly rule the world forever. In the future, you and I will have to call Yin Kaiyang the leader of the martial arts alliance." Xie Xie Yun asked impatiently, "What do you think of that scene?"
If any of the ministers in the Nuan Pavilion heard these words, they would shudder on the spot, but Shan Chao just shook his head and looked into Xie Yun's eyes, as if he was struggling and looking forward to it.
"But even if he dominates the world forever..." Shan Chao said slowly and in an extremely low voice, "Even if he is powerful, what does it have to do with you and me?"
"If we go far away to live our own lives, and let there be bloody storms outside, even if he kills the king and proclaims himself emperor, what will it have to do with you and me?"
Xie Yun didn't refute him, and didn't even show his usual sarcastic and mean expression.
After a long time, the muscles all over his body relaxed slightly, and he sighed very slightly and deeply.
"You probably won't be able to make a fool of yourself in your life." He laughed at himself, "My picky eyes are sometimes completely wrong."
"... It is extremely unwise to fight recklessly. It not only affects the reputation of the future generations of the Holy Majesty, but also directly threatens the safety of the Holy Cavalry on Mount Tai! I really can't agree with the proposal of the head of Yin. I hope that the Holy Majesty will learn from you!"
Yuchi Yuanyu took off his clothes and knelt down, and the generals behind him imitated their example in desperation, and fell to their knees in an instant.
The emperor finally fell silent. He raised his head and scanned the back of the purple and gold belt under his feet, and then said a few words miserly: "In this case, it is not impossible for me to take a step back..."
Everyone was overjoyed, but then the emperor asked, "Yin Aiqing, do you have any other ideas?"
Yin Kaiyang was not in a hurry, obviously he was prepared: "Report to His Majesty, yes."
"Oh? Let's hear it?"
Xie Yun watched them sing the double reed with cold eyes, and as expected, he only listened to Yin Kaiyang calmly said: "It's okay not to kill indiscriminately, there is another way to easily restrain these lawless knight-errants, and that is to treat them in the same way as others .”
The others hadn't reacted yet, but Yu Wenhu, who had lived in a wealthy family since he was a child, had seen a lot of various methods, his heart skipped a beat and he raised his head.
"Since the position of leader of the martial arts alliance is so important, it cannot be left among the people and controlled by people with ulterior motives, thereby posing a threat to the government and the opposition. With this authority, from now on, all the famous and upright sects of martial arts in the world can submit to the imperial court, and the lonely, brave and combative fighters can also be used by His Majesty."
"Of course, it is unrealistic for the secret door to defeat the joint efforts of Wudang Shaolin, Kongtong Huashan and other famous martial arts masters by itself, so it also needs the assistance of the imperial court."
Yin Kaiyang paused amidst the uproar around him, and asked with great interest:
"My lords, what do you think of this method compared to arresting and killing them all just now?"
