Zongzheng Wuchou spent half a day lying in the Qingmi Garden, and he hadn't been able to have a good rest for many days. At this moment, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he seemed to be asleep in the state of extreme exhaustion. His eyelashes were trembling slightly, and he was caught in those unbearable past events. The sky is gray, the ice-cold river is foggy and foggy, and the river is flowing rapidly, bringing bursts of bright red and turbulent. A five-year-old boy is struggling in the water, which is shocking at first glance.
His dark eyes were wide open in despair and helplessness, as if he felt that life was passing away bit by bit, but he was powerless, and the fear of death filled his young heart. There was suffocation-like tearing pain in his chest, his eyes seemed to penetrate the red river to see the icy world, silently questioning the cruel fate: "Why?"
As long as he can remember, he has experienced the cruelty of his blood relatives in the life of fleeing. He watched those people who protected him left by his mother leave one by one, and finally he was left alone with scars all over his body. respite. In those dark nights ravaged by ice and snow, he dragged his tired body forward slowly, and his steps brought out two lines of blood marks.
He can't die! Must survive! Only by living can we hope to become stronger! Only then can he save his mother who is enduring suffering for him, and only then can he know why his biological father would be cruel and ruthless to kill him! He was full of resentment. From that moment on, the heart-wrenching pain seemed to have eaten away every inch of his heart. The strong desire to survive gave him tenacious vitality beyond ordinary people. Consciously, he dragged himself out of the water.
The five years of hunting and fleeing had come to an end, but the misfortune that fate had brought him had just begun. Two years later, with the assistance of the head of the Tianqiu Sect, he formulated a plan to rescue his mother, but after entering the palace, he witnessed the scene of his mother being buried in a sea of flames. At that moment, hatred was like that monstrous fire, burning and spreading wantonly in his heart, as if it had the power to burn everything. From then on, only that deep-seated hatred supported him to live.
In those inhumane cruel training, in the tragic dark struggle, he learned to face everything with a smile, got used to wearing a mask, hid his true self, and cultivated a cold and ruthless heart He marched hard step by step towards his destination, keeping everything in the world under his eyes, and no one could stop his revenge plan! It's just fate, and it is irreversible in the end. He met her, that cool girl who was so indifferent and calm as if she didn't care about everything in the world, the inevitable disaster in his life.
When did you start falling in love with her? He has lost track of it. Maybe it was the description she heard from others before meeting her, maybe it was a meeting by Tianshui Lake, maybe it was in the bamboo forest in the eastern suburbs, maybe it was a reunion in the palace, maybe it was the gazing under the eaves...
He didn't know why he fell in love with her, maybe it was because of the eyes that see human nature clearly, or maybe it was the back of her crying alone in the heavy rain, the fragility and lonely soul that was trying to hide, and the relationship with the past. He is so similar, he couldn't help it in his heart... ", it hurts. He appreciates her tenacity and intelligence, and her exquisite mind plotted a seamless plan. During the year of being together day and night, she was indifferent but hidden With a sad smile, he watched himself sink soberly.
A person who has long since lost the qualifications for love is finally bound in a cocoon, pushing himself into the abyss of eternal doom!
Her hair turns into snow, her hatred needs no words to describe it! On hundreds of nights in this year, as long as he closes his eyes, he can see the silver hair flying in the air, instantly turning into a sharp sword and piercing towards his heart, as if thousands of arrows pierced through his heart and lay on the ground. The naked man suddenly opened his eyes. He slowly got up and sat up straight. It was already dark outside. He tilted his head and looked at the red wedding dress that was flattened on the inside. In the darkness, the phoenix embroidered with gold silk seemed to be reborn from the ashes. Fly up, just like her. It's a pity that the clothes are there, but the person is no longer there. All this seemed so ironic, he smiled miserably, without her, he still had to live like a walking dead.
He got up and went back to the imperial study, waiting for him is still a mountain of government affairs. He went straight into the inner room without looking at it. The rhizomes of the green plants were transparent in color, and the black leaves of the birds were slowly opening. At this time of the day, the blood crow needs fresh blood to nourish and grow.
He raised his hand, and was about to put his index finger into the dark hole of the flower leaf, but suddenly stopped, and glanced slightly.
"Your Majesty, don't bother, she doesn't need this anymore!" With a soft voice, a woman appeared behind the screen in the imperial study room. The woman's willow eyebrows are picturesque, her skin is as white as snow, and her facial features are exquisite as if they were carefully carved. She stomped in and bowed silently. There are only two kinds of people who can get close to him without communication, one is confidants, and the other is people whose identities should not be disclosed. Zongzheng Wuchou turned to look at her with a blank expression on his face. Women are respectful and polite, but neither humble nor overbearing. She stepped forward and sighed softly: "Such a small blood crow tree is only enough to restore a person's black hair, but in order to quell the army riots and stop the rumors of white-haired monsters, the Southern Emperor took Nixue to shorten his lifespan. The price of ten years will turn one hair gray. Therefore, she will not take blood black, and your majesty should stop hurting herself!"
Zongzheng's face suddenly changed, he stared blankly at the object that he regarded as a treasure, and was absent-minded for a moment. After a long while, he raised his hand again, and resolutely stretched his fingers towards the plant that sucked blood to survive.
"Your Majesty, you... why are you bothering?" The woman looked at the man's pale side face with a complex expression, and sighed secretly.
The blood crow had sucked enough blood, and the dark red leaves loosened lazily, revealing a strange luster. With a calm expression on his face, he only withdrew his hand, and he seemed to not see the deep blood hole on his fingertips, and asked lightly, "Who spread the rumor about the white-haired evildoer?" The woman frowned and said, "Prime Minister Sancho of the Southern Dynasty, It is said that many secret letters were allocated from his house, with your seal on them."
Zongzheng Wuchou's eyes sharpened suddenly, "My seal?" The woman nodded with certainty, he turned around slowly, walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, his expression dark and unfathomable.
The room was very silent, and a needle could be heard falling. After a while, he raised his head and took a deep breath and exhaled it heavily, as if exhausting all his strength to ask: "Is...how is she doing?" The woman nodded slightly, answering Said: "She is very good, very happy."
Zongzheng Wuchou lowered his eyes silently, concealing the expression in his eyes, and said again: "Then... did she ever say, when will she come to me... for revenge?" His low and slow voice was like snow and ice. The sound was full of vicissitudes and sadness, silently suppressed, and a solid ice fog gathered in my heart. The woman shook her head lightly, as if infected by the man's desolate breath, there was also a touch of sadness in her eyes.
Zongzheng Wuxu laughed at himself, and put his hands on his hands, "Go ahead and take care of the tea garden business for her, and don't disappoint her." The woman's lips moved, and she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything. She responded, saluted and left.
, Qi, and Zongzheng stepped out of the screen in a hurry, went to the table and sat down, took out a seal made of transparent jasper from the drawer, held it tightly in the palm of his hand, his knuckles were blue and white, and his brows were tightly frowned. Then, the sharp-edged lips did not have the slightest color of blood.
, a book, an emperor's seal, who else in this world can use it at will? My dearest mother, are you so impatient
, Net, "Report to Your Majesty, I have something important to announce!" The voice of guard Li Liang came from outside the door. That was the bodyguard he personally selected and trained from among the pro-army.
Zongzheng Wuchou let go of his hand, put the seal back to its original place, collected his expression, and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
The young and steady guard came into the room, knelt down and paid homage: "Your Majesty Qizuo, my subordinates have found out that Tianqiumen are haunting the southwestern border, and sent people to investigate, but were obstructed by a dark force of unknown origin."
The southwest border is adjacent to Qiyun Kingdom. Zongzheng wrinkled his brows and raised his eyelids slightly, but he didn't speak, waiting for him to continue.
Li Liang bowed his head and said in shame: "The subordinates are incompetent, and they have not found out where this dark force comes from. They are mysterious and never confront us face to face, as if they know our every move like the back of the palm of their hand. Just in time to avoid our pursuit."
Zongzheng Wuchou's eyes sank, he didn't know that there was a dark force behind Tianqiumen! He propped the table with one hand, stood up, and turned his back to the young guard, "Continue to investigate, as long as anyone related to Tianqiumen, they will be killed without mercy." There were very few, and the ones he stabbed were the ones he hated the most.
"Observe the order!" Li Liang responded quickly, and said again: "Your Majesty, my subordinates also found out that Ren Daotian, who is known as the "God's Fortune", has returned to Lishan Maoshe."
Zongzheng Wuchou's eyes were fixed, and through the gap in the screen, he looked at the blood crow in the middle of the big bed in the inner room, and a gleam of light ignited in his eyes. Mount Li, adjacent to the Northern Dynasties, belongs to the territory of the Southern Dynasties.
Three days after the end of the Southern Dynasty, all officials closed their doors and thought about their mistakes.
Three days later, Xiang Sang and his party handed in their resignations nine times out of ten, asking the emperor to allow them to retire and return to their hometowns, and the emperor agreed. There are many vacancies in the official positions in the court, and many talented people with lofty ideals who were suppressed and excluded by Sang Xiang's party before were promoted exceptionally, which made them feel grateful for this young and courageous emperor in their hearts, and they are determined to do their best , to repay the emperor's favor. After this incident, no one of the other courtiers dared to form a party for personal gain, and everyone worked hard. So far, the capital of the Southern Dynasties has a very good scene.
At the request of Zongzheng Wuyou, Mantian has become a frequent visitor to the Palace of Political Affairs, assisting the emperor in handling government affairs in an open and honest manner. It is already a tacit oath between the two of them to advance and retreat together. After the rumor incident, Zongzheng Wuyou understood that instead of protecting her behind him, it would be better to pull her to a position as high as him, so that others would not dare to make trouble with her. During this period, over time, everything has become an unchangeable fact, and no one dares to object.
Zongzheng Wuyou, who had approved papers for a whole day, lay back on the chair. What was placed in front of him were not only government affairs that could never be finished, but also the medicinal diet that his beloved woman specially prepared for him to nourish his body. Soup and porridge. The faint scent of medicine accompanied by the strong aroma of delicious food lingers in the whole room, making people feel warm when smelling it. The woman filled a bowl for him, and she smiled satisfied when she watched him drink it up with his head down.
The Ninth Prince sat across from them, very peaceful. He secretly said in his heart: Xiao Ke, that dead girl is still somewhat useful, at least she can prepare medicinal food to help Seventh Brother recuperate his body. Looking at the two people opposite him, he suddenly felt a little envious, and he was truly relieved. Maybe Seventh Brother's original decision was right, he can recruit new ones after he is demoted, and he can fight back if his country is lost, but if Li Yue dies, Seventh Brother will not be happy even if he wins the world.
Seeing the Ninth Prince staring at them in a daze, Mantian smiled and said, "Old Ninth, do you want to drink? I'll ask Ke'er to make a copy for you as well."
"Okay", he agreed with bright eyes, then seemed to remember something, and quickly waved his hand again: "Forget it, if the damn girl knows that she did it for me, she might put some poison in it." .β
Laughing all over the sky, it's strange to say that Ke'er is good to everyone, but she just likes to fight against Lao Jiu. These two people are really a pair of enemies! She put away the bowls and chopsticks and asked someone to come in and remove them.
The medicinal food is used up, it's time to talk about business.
Zongzheng Wuyou leaned lazily on the back of his chair, and said in a low voice, "The news of Ren Daotian's return to Mount Li has spread so quickly, within just a few days, it has already become known all over the world!"
Ninth Prince said: "I don't know what's going on, we only got the news two days ago, and it spread out, as if someone deliberately spread it."
Man Tian frowned slightly, and sighed: "Since it was prophesied that those who want to win the world must first win Xuan and Ren. All countries in the world have been looking for these two people for many years, and now we know that they have returned to Lishan. Nanyao, I'm afraid there will be no peace."
Zongzheng Wuyou raised his phoenix eyes slightly, pursed his thin lips lightly, and put his hands on the armrests of the chair casually, looking a little tired.
Ninth Prince said: "Are they really that powerful? Could it be a rumor?" He still expressed doubts. In his heart, the most powerful person is right in front of him, and others are nothing.
Man Tian shook his head, according to the recent analysis of the information about these important figures collected from various places, the possibility of rumors is unlikely. She turned to look at the man beside her and asked, "Wuyou, what do you think?"
Zongzheng Wuyou smiled and said, "Aren't you collecting their information these days? Tell me your opinion.
Man Tian stood up, pondered, and said, "I don't think this matter may be groundless. Ren Daotian is familiar with astronomy and geography, and has traveled all over the world for many years!" Instead, it describes every terrain that is suitable for battle, and records the detailed advantages and disadvantages of the terrain, astronomy and weather, the number of soldiers and horses, and the fastest way to win. This thing alone is enough to make the kings of all countries in the world fear. "She paused, seeing Zongzheng Wuyou looking over with admiring eyes, she smiled slightly, and said again: "And Xuan Ketian" ξ, Wu Xiangzi's martial arts attainments are as good as his. Seven thousand people who have trained It can be seen that his master Xuan Jiantian is extraordinary, and the aura of sweeping thousands of troops with one sword in the legend is certainly true, which is not comparable to ordinary martial arts people. What's more, it is rumored that this person is proficient in military strategy and formation, and must be one of the rare generals. Just now, our dynasty has an army of 300,000, and there are very few outstanding generals available. Except for General Luo Zhi, who is about to return to the court, there is no Xiangzi who can be worthy of a big job. Itβs still a little bit worse.β
The Ninth Prince stared and was stunned when he heard it. Seeing her analysis so well, he couldn't help giving her a thumbs up, admiring but also resentful: "I just found out, so you are very talented in politics! But, that... Sister-in-law Qi, why don't you have me? Anyway, I am also a prince who holds military power now, and I have also read military books! Even if I am not the talent of the commander-in-chief of the three armies, I must be a general, right? Huh?"
Seeing his sad face, looking like he was abandoned, Mantian couldn't help but smiled and said: "Then count you in." Lao Jiu's martial arts are not bad, people look confused, but he is actually very smart, he just needs practice.
Seeing the approval, the Ninth Prince immediately pouted and laughed, "According to what you said, they are both so powerful, so should we send someone to invite them down the mountain quickly, so that they don't get snatched first?"
He stared all over the sky at the man who was still in a lazy posture, but his eyes were extremely deep, like a deep pool with no bottom to be seen. Zongzheng Wuyou's face was calm, and he said unhurriedly: "No rush. Transfer five people from Wuyin Tower to the foot of Mount Li. This matter... Let Wuxiangzi handle it."
"Oh." The Ninth Prince quickly responded,
Zongzheng Wuyou had a smile on his thin lips, raised his eyes appreciatively, looked at the woman in front of him, and said slowly: "Continue with the topic just now, let's go on."
Man Tian nodded and said: "Wuxiangzi is strong in martial arts and has the ability to lead the army, but he has a more quack spirit and lacks the style of a general. And to lead the three armies requires a certain prestige and reputation. This is a big victory." The returning Luo Zhi can be regarded as suitable. But although Luo Zhi is brave and good at fighting, he is a rare general, but he is arrogant and unruly by nature, has no concept of family and country, and it is difficult to be truly loyal to the country and the emperor. This time the rumor spread , after he was drunk, he uttered the nonsense of "the country has evildoers, and the king is not the king. It can be seen that this person's heart has not yet been determined. If you want to continue to use this person, you have to subdue his heart."
Zongzheng Wuyou's eyes were bright, "In your opinion, how should we subdue this person?"
"It's not difficult to subdue him...Wuyou, why don't you leave this person to me. I heard...the thing he despises the most in his life is a woman." On the day of the imperial court, a banquet is scheduled to be held in the daytime six days later to reward the meritorious soldiers, and I will attend with you."
A woman said she wanted to subdue a man who looked down on women the most? Fun fun! The Ninth Prince suddenly became interested, leaned forward on the table, blinked his eyes and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law Seven, what are you going to do? Do you need me to help you?"
Man Tian raised her eyebrows lightly, her eyes overflowed with light, she smiled lightly, but didn't answer. Zongzheng Wuyou stretched out his hand towards her, pulled her to sit beside him, and only said "yes".
Man Tian said again: "Old Jiu, did the three things you secretly bought last time go well?"
The Ninth Prince said: "Oh, that, the charcoal is already much better, not much sulfur and saltpetre...Sister-in-law Seven, what do you want these things for?"
Man Tian frowned, and said: "Continue to purchase, as much as you can get. As for the usefulness, you will know in due time." She also expected that the amount of sulfur and saltpeter would not be too much, so she could only try it first.
After the Ninth Prince left, he said all over the sky: "Wuyou, do you know what these things are for?"
Zongzheng Wuyou was slightly stunned, could it be that he should know? He thought about it for a while, and his eyes moved, "Is it something from that world?"
Nodding all over the sky, it seems that Concubine Yun Gui has never caught gunpowder from them. If she had mentioned it, the former Emperor Lintian must have already conquered the world. She thought, maybe Concubine Yun Gui was kind by nature, and she didn't want to encourage people's greed, so as to avoid chaos in the world and the loss of life. But now the situation is different, with constant wars and wars. If they want to take revenge and live a peaceful and peaceful life, they have no other way but to bring order to the world.
She took the man's hand and looked into his eyes, as if searching for something from his eyes, with a dignified expression.
Zongzheng Wuyou stroked her jade-white fingertips and asked, "What's wrong?"
Man Tian lowered his eyes slightly, his face was a little sad, "Wuyou, I don't know if it's right to do this, I just want to do my best to help you, I want to end this uneasy life as soon as possible, and I also want to pay back the world as soon as possible." Peaceful. Although I'm not sure how powerful those things will be, but I brought things that don't belong to this world into this world without authorization, causing people to die. It's very uncomfortable. The longer the war lasts, the more miserable people's livelihood will be. I hope she does this, there is nothing wrong with it.
Zongzheng Wuyou's gaze moved, and he raised the woman's face in distress. After experiencing so many injuries, his Aman still has a kind heart in the end! He hugged her cool body into his arms and sighed, "No matter what kind of weapon it is, if it makes you so uneasy, then don't use it. Just like this, I can fight the world for you and let you live a peaceful life Happy days."
Shaking her head in his arms all over the sky, she will not regret what she has already decided. She really dare not say what the bronze chariot equipped with a rocket crossbow will bring to this world.
