Emperor Hengyang's simple decision caused a huge shock in the court. Civil and military officials held different opinions, criticized each other, and argued endlessly. No one wanted to compromise.
The interests involved in this are very deep. Based on their respective positions, the Gongguns will naturally not retreat so easily, and will fight hard until the last moment.
"quiet!
"
The chamberlain shouted again, and then the voices of everyone in the court were suppressed and became quiet again.
"I have made up my mind on this matter. Dear ladies, there is no need to persuade me. Hong Aiqing is currently the best person to handle the matter of Heqingdao. There is no need to discuss this matter again. If there are no other matters, today's court meeting will end here. Please retire.
.”
Seeing that everyone's voices had subsided, Emperor Hengyang spoke calmly. His voice echoed in the Jinluan Palace, like a decree from the sky, and no one could question or resist.
The ministers still wanted to fight for one or two, but when they saw the calm eyes of Emperor Hengyang, they suddenly swallowed the words on their lips.
Based on their understanding of the emperor, since he has expressed his attitude so clearly and firmly, there is little room for change.
In the court, no one can truly be the opponent of His Majesty the Emperor, who holds the lifeline of the Wei Dynasty, and no one can defy his will and change what he has determined.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
The ministers of the royalist faction shouted loudly, with happy expressions on their faces. Hong Xingxian had returned, and they were undoubtedly the ones who benefited the most.
Although officials from other factions knew that God's will was irreversible, they all had their own thoughts and were thinking about the deeper intention of Emperor Hengyang's decision.
Do you simply want to use this incident to re-promote Hongxing Township, or do you want to take action against the entire system of canonized schools in the Wei Dynasty?
They had a feeling in the dark that this matter was probably just the beginning.
Heaven’s heart is hard to fathom, and the divine will is hard to understand.
But one thing they can clearly know is that Heqingdao is about to change.
The rain is coming!
The court meeting dispersed and the ministers left, most of them in a hurry. They had to respond to this change as soon as possible.
At the same time, on the other side, within the imperial city, was Concubine Yun Guifei's Nishang Palace.
In the grandly decorated hall, a figure sat beside a round table with hollow flowers and flowers in the hall. Various exquisite pastries were placed on the table, and the air was filled with the faint scent of sandalwood.
This man has a handsome face, black hair tied up high, and a tall figure. At this time, he seems to be concentrating with his eyes closed. His face has no expression at all, but he vaguely reveals a unique temperament that puts great pressure on people.
One glance is unforgettable.
The maids and guards standing around lowered their heads, their faces showing a mixture of humility, awe and admiration. When they looked at that figure, they felt as if they were looking at the most shining star in the sky from a distance.
The stars were so high above mortals like them that even if they were in front of them, they were not something they could touch.
Perfect appearance, distinguished status, powerful talent, extremely strong strength, and the favor of His Majesty the Emperor.
They knew very well that the young man in front of them, who had just passed his thirties, could be said to be the most dazzling being among the younger generation in the entire Wei Dynasty. He was a true genius. It is said that he has not yet married a wife. He does not know how many dignitaries there are.
The young lady at home wants to meet him, but there are countless young girls in Shenjing who regard him as the ideal person in their fantasy, and countless martial arts practitioners regard him as their target.
This young man who closed his eyes and said nothing was the youngest master of magical powers in the Wei Dynasty who made all the princes in the court blush.
Hong Xingxian.
"Come on, little brother, your favorite Fengxian cake is made by me. I learned the craftsmanship from the royal chef in the palace. Even His Majesty was full of praise after eating it. Can you try it and see how it tastes?"
Not long after, a voice as clear and sweet as a lark came from outside the main hall door. A woman wearing luxurious palace clothes had fluttering clothes and raised skirt. She felt as if she was in the clouds while walking, with a light and ethereal feeling.
feel.
At this time, she was holding a box of pastries in her hand, looking at the young people in the room with a smile, and walked into the main hall.
Her skin is like cream, her face is picturesque, her body is plump and graceful, her eyebrows are as full as crescent moons, her red lips are like cherry dots, and her eyebrows are a little red. It is not makeup, but a mole, which gives people a more holy and flawless look.
feeling.
This person is Concubine Yun of the Great Wei Dynasty, Hong Xingxian’s sister, Hong Xianyue.
Hearing this voice, the young man who had closed his eyes to meditate slowly opened his eyes.
In an instant, the entire hall seemed to be three-thirds brighter, as if this person was really the incarnation of the will of the stars.
"My sister made it, so of course I like it."
Looking at Concubine Yun, a smile appeared on Hong Xingxian's calm and indifferent face. He stood up, took the box in her hand, opened it, took out a piece of pastry and took a bite, with an expression of enjoyment on his face and words of praise.
She kept talking, causing Concubine Yun to chuckle happily.
"You have been in seclusion for half a year this time, and you only came out in the past few days. Have you made any progress in your practice?"
Concubine Yun Guifei looked at Hong Xingxian and asked with a smile.
"Yes, after half a year of hard training, I have indeed made further progress. I believe that soon, even the Six Pillars of the Imperial Court will no longer be my opponent."
Hong Xingxian nodded and said with great confidence, as if surpassing the six pillars of the imperial court was just a matter of course for him.
"You, you, why do you need to push yourself so hard? You are the reincarnation of a star, a general of our great Wei Dynasty. Success is only a matter of time. You should be relaxed and relaxed in your daily practice, and you can't be too hasty. And you are not too young.
It’s time to start a family. I heard that Chai Yaoqin, the youngest daughter of Dr. Guanglu’s Chai Jin family, is eighteen years old. She is as beautiful as a fairy, gentle and virtuous, and has a lot of charm. She is indeed a good match. Do you want me to introduce you to her?”
Concubine Yun Gui looked at the most beloved younger brother in the family with some annoyance and said.
Hong Xingxian was born with a special talent, and everyone knew that he was the reincarnation of the stars. He was blessed by nature and was favored by heaven and earth.
In fact, the so-called reincarnation of stars is not unknown in the history of this world.
Heaven and earth are composed of Yuan Qi, and the movement of all things is related to Yuan Qi. This is especially true for practitioners. They activate Yuan Qi, strengthen themselves, and constantly strengthen their connection with heaven and earth, thereby mastering stronger power.
The so-called talent is the effect of resonance between life and Yuan Qi.
Different horoscopes, different birth dates, and different horoscopes may have a certain impact on this talent.
Such is the destiny of time.
And some sages, the chosen ones, are born in response to Yuan Qi, such as being born in a dream about a snake, a dream about a star, a dream about a god, etc. This is to resonate with a certain kind of heaven and earth Yuan Qi.
the phenomenon that occurs.
This kind of person is born with a deep entanglement with the corresponding energy of heaven and earth. Even in the acquired state, he can use all kinds of incredible methods and surpass common sense. Hong Xingxian is such a person.
It is said that on the day of his birth, when the sun was shining, there was a star shining in the sky. It stood out from the light of the sun and cast a dazzling starlight into the Hong Mansion until Hong Xingxian.
After birth, the light converged and the vision stopped.
As soon as this incident came out, it caused a shock in the capital at that time. The late emperor personally intervened. It can be said that from the day of his birth, Hong Xingxian has attracted much attention and became famous all over the world. The Hong family regarded it as a treasure and devoted everything to cultivate it.
And Hong Xingxian did not disappoint their hopes. He showed great talent and made progress all the way without any obstacles.
He refined his viscera at the age of sixteen and was born innate at the age of twenty. By the time he was twenty-eight, his martial arts had reached the realm of supernatural powers. A few years ago, he and Xihuandao defeated the shamanistic sect and killed the master of supernatural powers, which was even more sensational.
"Sister, there is no need to arrange these things for me. To me, things between men and women are just killing people and extremely boring. How can my goal be hindered by the affair between men and women? What's more, I am the reincarnation of a star, and my body has natural
Then there is hidden spiritual energy. If a mortal woman marries me, it will only absorb my spiritual energy and consume my talents. My Hongxingxian woman will definitely not be a common person."
"By the way, sister, I heard that there has been a change in Heqingdao, and that Your Majesty has my intention. I wonder if this is true?"
Hong Xingxian asked.
After Concubine Yun heard this, she winked to her left and right, signaling them to retreat.
"Your Majesty indeed has your intention to put you in charge of the affairs of Heqingdao. It should be decided after the meeting this morning. However, many officials may not agree with this decision. If you make any omissions, you will definitely be punished.
A group of people rose up to attack. Although Your Majesty has the jade seal, the power of incense is gathered by all the people in the world, and the wishes of the Gongun princes have to be taken into account."
"Therefore, you must be more cautious in your actions this time. Don't create extraneous matters. Repeat what happened on Xihuan Road back then. Only by handling this matter well will you be able to silence others, and your Majesty will be able to use you more favorably."
Concubine Yun Guifei warned Hong Xingxian.
"Proceed with caution? Sister, you don't understand. In the past few years, when I think back on the Xihuandao incident, the biggest mistake I made was that I was not strong enough. Back then, if I were strong enough, even if I killed the master of magical powers, I would still be able to kill him.
It can suppress the canonized schools of Xihuan Dao, so as not to cause unrest and allow the shamans to take advantage of the opportunity, causing Xihuan Dao to suffer losses."
"What your Majesty blames is not that I killed the magical masters of the canonized sect, but that I damaged the foundation of Xihuandao. As long as I am strong enough, nothing will happen. As for those above the court who can only talk.
Old guys, why should you pay attention to them? How many years have the six pillars been weighing on their heads? Apart from superficial verbal abuses, have they ever taken any practical actions?"
"In the final analysis, they are just a bunch of guys who bully others and fear others."
Hong Xingxian said calmly.
"Hey, you still have the same temper as before."
Concubine Yun shook her head and was about to say something else when a voice announcing the decree suddenly came from outside the door.
Emperor Hengyang's appointment was delivered after the court meeting.
At night, Shenjing Hongfu.
Hong Xingxian was sitting in the luxuriously decorated study. A breeze blew by, and the door suddenly opened. A figure shrouded in darkness suddenly appeared in the study.
"Charming, have you got the specific information I want about He Qingdao?"
Hong Xingxian looked down at the eucalyptus tablets on the table and asked without raising his head.
"Got it, my lord."
The shadow said, and a pale arm stretched out from the shadow, passing a volume of files into Hong Xingxian's hands.
That was the detailed story about the Heqingdao incident and the Battle of Nanfu.
"Two of the six pillars of the imperial court, Wei Lie and Xuan Ping, the two Wuhous, personally took charge and made arrangements in advance. In the end, they fell short of success and were led by others without making any achievements. What a waste."
"Among the Yinlou organization, there is only one person whose identity can be determined. How was He Qingdao's rebellion back then? Haha, the dead people actually reappeared. The evil statues are all placed in the Nanfu. I'm afraid all the factions are indispensable.
It’s involved.”
"The canonized school belongs to the imperial court in name, but in fact it is divided into one party. It listens to the tune but not the propaganda. It secretly stirs up the situation and makes the country unstable. It should be destroyed!"
"This time, His Majesty re-appointed me under such circumstances. It seems that he also wants to change He Qingdao."
"That's good. What I didn't finish on Xihuan Road last time can be finished on Heqing Road."
Looking at the file in his hand, Hong Xingxian showed a smile.
Nanfu, within the Zhenfu Division.
"Are the ministers attacking and criticizing with words and writing?"
Wan Fayan simply read a file and threw it aside.
With his current strength and status, the only thing he needs to care about is the attitude of Emperor Hengyang. As for other ministers, to be honest, it is difficult to really influence them. At most, some of the words of those sharp-tongued guys will make people feel very uncomfortable.
That's all.
Then, he picked up another file, and after reading it, his expression became slightly condensed.
This file records the appointment of Emperor Hengyang.
"Is Hong Xingxian?"
Wan Fayan looked silent. It had to be said that whether it was talent or means, this person was a being worthy of being feared.
"The major forces in Heqing Dao are going to have a hard time. It seems that His Majesty is really angry this time. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to deal with when he goes back."
Wan Fayan's eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
the other side.
Zhao Xuanqi and other members of the Red Heart Sect were unaware of the changes in the court and the upcoming storm in Heqingdao.
Because Qiu Qing and most of the deacon disciples were injured in the previous turmoil and were in poor condition, in order to prepare for hidden crises along the way, after leaving Nan Mansion, the group changed out of the iconic plain robes of the Red Heart Sect and replaced them with
The merchant dressed up and moved forward concealing his identity.
Fortunately, we didn't encounter too many risks along the way. It was obvious that Qiu Qing's prompt decision had worked.
At this point in time, the imperial court was busy dealing with the aftermath of Nanfu and Heqingdao. The Yinlou organization had just experienced a war, and the evil statues and a large number of people had evacuated. They must not have cared about anything else at this time. Therefore, what seemed like a hasty action was, in fact,
Very safe.
After three days of traveling, the group finally returned to the mountain gate of the Red Heart Sect without any danger.
