Ming Youzi's death did not cause an uproar in the Jianghu, except that this matter was relatively secret, and more importantly, the changes in the court made all martial arts sects become impetuous.
The newly-appointed "Chairman of Literature" Murong Zhuhai issued a decree, inviting martial arts schools from all over the world to Luodu to participate in the selection of "recommended officials".
To put it bluntly, Murong Zhuhai is using the cake in his hand to win over the various sects.
If Murong Zhuhai represented the authenticity of the imperial court, even if most of the martial arts sects had a close relationship with Kunwu, they would eventually compromise, after all, they would not be able to rebel against the imperial court.
However, there is not much time left for Ye Qingxuan and others. They not only want to support the queen, but also resolve the crisis within the court and its impact on the world.
At this time, the Eagle King's attitude became the key. After all, as a general of the imperial court with a heavy army in his hands, if Murong Zhuhai opposed a certain decision, he would not dare to act presumptuously, even if he had power in his hands.
However, according to Ji Guanglan's proposal, the Eagle King chose to stay still and continue to fight abroad to pacify the remnants of the Donghu in the north. Use a seemingly ambiguous attitude to stabilize the logistics supplies of the hundreds of thousands of troops abroad, otherwise, once the supplies are cut off, these hundreds of thousands of troops will immediately confess to Saibei, and few will come back alive.
The "Dragon King" Yu Pohai in Jiangnan is also in the same situation. For the sake of the overall situation, don't make any political statements, and wait quietly for Ye Qingxuan and others to return to Luodu.
Jinyiwei has been controlled by the Editing Factory, and the information there cannot be passed on, but through various channels, hidden posts, and secret agents, Jiang Shuihan receives news like snowflakes every day.
It was all the news that Murong Zhuhai, Xigong, and Jishichang were all over the government and controlled the various government offices. There was no reaction to the return of Ye Qingxuan and others, and the death of the empress without taking the order.
All this looks extremely peaceful, but under this layer of calm, everyone can feel the turbulent waves inside.
On Ye Qingxuan's side, they went straight down the river, and their journey back to Luodu was not hindered in any way, and after a month, after the warship entered the land of Jingchu, the empress Ji Wanting's gynecological surgery also ended perfectly, and Ji Wanting recovered well , full of hope for the future.
The fleet sailed smoothly until this night in Kuizhou Mansion.
The fleet spent the night in Kuizhou Mansion, and replenished various supplies at the same time. Although the brigade did not travel with them, there were thousands of soldiers eating, drinking, and scattering on the five dispatched warships. It is huge, and it needs to be tested one by one to avoid being poisoned.
This delay took three days, but on the night of the night, an accident happened.
Major fires broke out on three of the five warships, destroying not only the sails, but also the cables and rudders. Only when the main ship and another warship are docked on the other side, with tight defenses, will there be no chance for people to take advantage of it.
Jiang Shuihan handed over the aftermath to his subordinates, and immediately ordered the two warships that had escaped the catastrophe to leave Kuizhou Mansion first, and head towards Jiangling Mansion overnight, and at the same time, they came to the cabin to report to everyone.
Jiang Shuihan's face was calm, and he glanced at the sleepless people, and found that Ye Qingxuan was not present, and Ji Wanting was not present due to his status, so he couldn't help but relax slightly, and said calmly: "Someone is obstructing, this is just a way to divide the troops in the early stage, Although the methods are poor, they are effective... I am afraid there is still an ambush ahead, please be more energetic."
Yan Pianfei nodded, and said to Grandma Miaozhen beside her, "Grandma, the river is very humid, so you can go back. Leave this place to me."
Grandma Miaozhen smiled slightly and said: "Okay. Leave it to you, I don't worry. I'm going to check on Jue Ling's injury right now. If I don't take a look, I don't feel relieved."
After the old man finished speaking, he smiled and was helped down by the female disciple.
As soon as the old man left, Yan Pianfei's smiling expression suddenly faded, and he became extremely stern, looking at Jiang Shuihan and said: "Since they have made a move, it is not just a simple ambush... Do we need to mobilize manpower to catch them all? "
Jiang Shuihan smiled slightly, and a glimmer of sternness flashed in his eyes, "Don't worry, Senior Yan, I have made proper arrangements."
Yan Pianfei was taken aback for a moment, and instantly found the figure of Ji Guanglan's old fox on the opponent's body, and couldn't help but cursed "little fox", and couldn't help but smile easily after turning around.
With the arrangement of two foxes, big and small, he has nothing to worry about...
…
That night.
The boat was sailing on the big river, the night was hazy, and the moon was covered by dark clouds. It was the time when the night was dark and the wind was high, killing people.
On the misty river, a light suddenly lit up somewhere, and then a wisp of fireworks rose from one of the two main warships, which exploded in the air with a bang.
In an instant, countless warships rushed out of the surrounding darkness, densely covering the surface of the river, shouts of killing came, and they all attacked the warships that sent the signal, the number was no less than three hundred, all of them Good at speed, raid the main ship.
At the same time, the main ship's rudder suddenly failed, and it stopped completely on the river surface. Then, fire broke out everywhere in the cabin, and thick smoke billowed in a moment, and the sound of shouting and killing rang out from the ship.
Obviously, this battleship also has the enemy's internal response, and there are also figures jumping up on the water, which are the powerful opponents of the enemy.
But all this does not seem to have the strength to shake Ye Qingxuan and others, but only to disturb their own sight.
Looking at the stranger phenomenon, there is absolute danger.
But how could Jiang Shuihan's arrangement put Ji Wanting, the current empress, in danger
Ten miles away across the river, on another giant ship, Ye Qingxuan and others watched the battlefield with flames flying into the sky in the distance, and remained silent for a long time.
Long before entering the waters with narrow channels and densely covered with reeds, Jiang Shuihan had dispatched a boat from the Dajiang League to meet everyone, and secretly transferred them to the boat of the Dajiang League by clever means.
Looking from a distance now, it seems that the enemy's ordinary strength has been exhausted, and the river surface is also very lively, which has created a great impact on the two warships.
Jiang Shuihan glanced at the stars, counted the time with his fingers, and then waited silently.
After a while, a hawk flew by, and a master of the Dajiang League took the letter from the hawk and handed it to Jiang Shuihan.
Jiang Shuihan glanced at it. At this time, the two warships were surrounded by warships, crowding the river, and countless figures flew onto the ship and rushed in.
Jiang Shuihan couldn't help but sighed slightly, and said, "That's fine, close the Internet cafe."
Following Jiang Shuihan's order, fireworks shot up into the sky all around, and then with the two besieged warships as the center, a special fire barrel suddenly fell on the river surface, and with a roar, the river surface within five miles suddenly burst into flames. Into a sea of flames.
Together with those two warships, they were all involved in the flames.
Undoubtedly, including his own people on the two battleships, none of those rebels slipped through the net, and they were killed with coefficients.
The cruelty of the method is astonishing.
