Generally speaking, every year's New Year's Meeting, although there are still many backlogged things to be done last year, it is not urgent for a day or two. Therefore, the Great Meeting over the years is just a ceremony and does not really matter.
rituals.
What many ministers did not expect was that shortly after the court meeting began, a man wearing Goryeo official uniform was announced into the hall.
After kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times, everyone realized that he was actually the crown prince of the King of Korea.
"What are the Korean people doing at the Great Court Meeting? It's not appropriate!"
The ministers discussed it a lot.
After the Crown Prince of Goryeo stood up, he announced his intention to come. Only then did everyone know that last year, a Japanese army of 100,000 troops landed from the coast and invaded Goryeo.
In less than a month, Seoul, the capital of the Goryeo Kingdom, was captured by the Japanese army, and the Goryeo King fled to Buksan.
The Japanese army pursued them all the way, and the King of Koryo retreated all the way to Uiju on the bank of the Yalu River. If he retreated further, he would not reach the Yalu River, but the territory of the Celestial Empire.
The Crown Prince of Goryeo said with a cry: "Chinese parents, our country and Japan are both foreign countries, just like sons.
To put it in terms of how parents treat their children, they are filial sons in our country and traitorous sons in Japan.
Even if parents are only kind to their children, is there any reason to love their traitorous son as much as a filial son?" (Original text)
This matter was not a secret originally, and several ministers in the Ministry of Rites also knew about it.
The Japanese attack on Goryeo was a bit excessive, but at the moment, we couldn't spare any action. So last year, the imperial court sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to send a peace letter to the King of Goryeo and the Japanese, asking the two countries to cease war.
The specific conditions for the truce are that both sides stand still and the land that is taken by whoever gets it now belongs to the other party, but no more fighting is allowed.
Based on these conditions, Goryeo was already regarded as an "abandoned son" from a "filial son". As a result, the Japanese did not agree. They fought further north in the winter and captured nine out of ten of Goryeo's territory.
Now the King of Goryeo can't even leave Uiju City, and is crying all day long about jumping into the river to die for his country.
As soon as the Crown Prince of Goryeo finished speaking, a minister immediately reported: "Your Majesty, although this matter involves a vassal country, it is outside our court after all.
What's more, in the past few years, our country has been suffering from poverty and shortage of soldiers, and I am afraid that we are no longer able to fight anymore. I don't think it would be better..."
Before the minister finished speaking, something flew out from the imperial steps and came towards him. He turned sideways to dodge the flying object.
The flying object landed, and all it saw was a writing brush.
"It's better, it's better. How about you go and persuade that monkey to calm down and retreat back to Japan?" Above the main hall, the emperor took out another pen from the pen holder, dipped it in ink, and then wrote on the memorial.
Crazy book, he laughed strangely while writing: "There are really no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys dominate."
Soon, the emperor finished approving the memorial in his hand. He threw the memorial into the hand of the personal eunuch beside him, and then threw the pen into the pen holder on the imperial desk, and it just went into the holder.
"So and so, you guys should discuss how to fight. I don't want the process, just the results. Once you've discussed it, report it to me!
Aren't you clamoring that the imperial court is short of silver? The Japanese islands are full of gold and silver.
I don’t want Korea, I want Japanese islands, not just one island, I want them all.
If God cannot take it, you must suffer the consequences.
Do you understand?"
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, he stood up and left with his hands behind his back.
The eunuch who was the master of ceremonies next to him saw it and shouted loudly: "Retreat from the court~"
…
Last night was the Lantern Festival, and today the New Year is over.
"I'm leaving." Ji Wushuang said goodbye to Huang Xiaoshi.
After Huang Xiaoshi returned to Luoyang from Huashan, the biggest surprise was that he met Ji Wushuang in Luoyang.
"What is this?" Huang Xiaoshi saw Ji Wushuang wearing Hu Nu's clothes. He thought that the Dragon King was going to transport the medicine by himself again.
"Don't worry, this identity is very safe now." Ji Wushuang said to Huang Xiaoshi, "Thanks to the money you gave me last time, Abi quickly started his business, and now he has also opened one in Luoyang
A branch.
This branch has nothing to do with the Tianlong Sect, it is 'my' shop. I can come and stay at any time."
"That's good, that's good." Huang Xiaoshi said to Ji Wushuang, "Oh, I went to participate in the Young Heroes Association competition and won a championship."
Huang Xiaoshi said it so easily, and Ji Wushuang didn't look the least bit surprised. In her opinion, no matter what amazing move Huang Xiaoshi made, he would never surprise her again.
It wasn't until after the New Year that Fang Yunhua came to visit in person that Ji Wushuang was secretly surprised.
Although Huang Xiaoshi had told Ji Wushuang a long time ago that Fang Yunhua was his younger brother, Ji Wushuang's understanding of the word younger brother was still not as thorough as Huang Xiaoshi's expression.
In her mind, the two of them just called each other brothers, and they probably had more verbal and emotional interactions.
Ji Wushuang was really dubious about what Huang Xiaoshi said about using medicine to control Fang Yunhua. After all, there were two living examples around her of people who were not womanizers, one was the Dragon King, and the other was Huang Xiaoshi.
As a result, Ji Wushuang was finally surprised when Fang Yunhua came to visit her for New Year greetings.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, Fang Yunhua and Huang Xiaoshi were sympathetic to each other between heroic teenagers, Ji Wushuang knew that it was not that simple.
Fang Yunhua should know Huang Xiaoshi's identity in the Tianlong Sect, but he still came to pay New Year's greetings openly and without any secret.
You know, Fang Yunhua is no longer a great disciple of the Wudang Sect. He is the ninth generation leader of the Wudang Sect, one of the six major sects in the Central Plains.
Ji Wushuang suddenly realized, is it true that as the Dragon King said, the prosperity of my religion is tied to Huang Xiaoshi?
The Dragon King may only be interested in Huang Xiaoshi's status as a bargaining chip against King Cheng. Ji Wushuang has been with Huang Xiaoshi for several months, and she knows that in addition to his excellent kung fu, Huang Xiaoshi also has strong coordination and organizational skills.
In addition, Shennong Baicaomen was conquering the city in the south. Once King Cheng rebelled, Huang Xiaoshi would only need the resources he already had, and with a little integration, he could become the commander-in-chief.
"Those who can lead troops are called generals; those who can lead generals are called commanders."
It's not hard to find a general, he just needs to be able to defeat the three armies and to sacrifice his life and forget the dead.
But handsome people are extremely rare.
Although Huang Xiaoshi often thinks that he cannot compare with the heroes of this era in all aspects, in the eyes of others, how old are you?
Experience and wealth can be accumulated slowly with age, but handsomeness is born.
Ji Wushuang remembered what the Dragon King said:
"I'm going to use you to tie Huang Xiaoshi."
So even if this is the case, sneaking over to see him is still business.
It's a pity that before the New Year was over, the secret agent sent news that the whereabouts of Gandharva and Kinnara had been discovered. Not only that, Garuda was also discovered.
These three people were meeting quietly, not knowing what they were going to do.
Ji Wushuang asked the secret agent to pass the news to the Dragon King, and then just finished the Lantern Festival. After all, he still had to work.
…
"I'm leaving." Ji Wushuang said to Huang Xiaoshi.
Huang Xiaoshi nodded, and he almost blurted out: "Have a good trip." But luckily he kept his wits about him.
"I really want to." Ji Wushuang leaned over, hugged Huang Xiaoshi, put her head on his chest, and whispered like a love story: "I really want to take off Yasha's clothes and stay with you like this.
or."
Ji Wushuang looked up at Huang Xiaoshi and said, "Take off these clothes and come with me."
"This." Huang Xiaoshi scratched his head and said, "It's not appropriate."
"Alas." Ji Wushuang said with a look of ignorance, "Just talking."
Yes, just talking.
Whether it is Ji Wushuang's identity as a Yaksha or Huang Xiaoshi's identity as the sect leader, they are extremely important to the current Tianlong Sect. How could the Dragon King allow them to delay important matters in the sect for the sake of some personal affairs between their children.
Didn't that Asura also disband the Asura Palace and return to the religion?
However, after all these years, Asura looks much older, far less young than Xiang'er and himself.
Can a man make a woman change so much?
Perhaps Asura is right, in this world of men and women, women always suffer more.
Ji Wushuang was about to say goodbye to Huang Xiaoshi when she saw Huang Xiaoshi take something out of his arms.
"Here." Huang Xiaoshi handed the gold armor in his hand to Ji Wushuang and said to her: "You said you lost your armor, so I made one for you.
Don't worry, I made this with my own hands, and no one in the world will recognize it.
You put it on and try to see if it fits."
After Ji Wushuang took the golden armor, he put it on his hand. The size was just right. Moreover, the difference between this armor and the previous one was that after putting it on, the index finger could bend forward but not backward. fold.
Ji Wushuang never expected that Huang Xiaoshi would do this.
"This is the stacked armor I made after the fish scales. Originally I wanted to make ten, but after trying it, it was too heavy and affected your activities." Huang Xiaoshi said to Ji Wushuang.
"So you gave Weiming the prize from the Young Heroes Association?" Ji Wushuang asked Huang Xiaoshi in return.
Huang Xiaoshi knew that Ji Wushuang was angry with Weiming. If Weiming hadn't disrupted the situation that day, Ji Wushuang would have caught the two traitors.
"It's not a gift, it's because I lost the guessing game." Huang Xiaoshi said to Ji Wushuang.
"That doesn't mean you will lose if you guess the boxing seriously?" Ji Wushuang didn't believe it.
"Uh, I really didn't give in." Huang Xiaoshi explained seriously to Ji Wushuang: "Actually, I originally wanted to show off and then win the [Golden Silk Armor], but I didn't know that Weiming guy was so good at punching. .”
This year's Young Heroes Association has a rare double champion.
The organizer, the Huashan Sect, originally prepared only one prize, a piece of armor that not only does not affect movement when worn, but is also invulnerable - [Golden Silk Armor].
Caught off guard, the Huashan Sect could not find anything good enough to match this prize.
However, Huang Xiaoshi didn't care and wanted to give the prize to Weiming, but Weiming was determined not to take advantage of it. After the two of them pushed and pushed, Huang Xiaoshi suggested that they just punch each other, and the winner would be determined by winning three out of five rounds.
As a result, Wei Ming won three games in a row and won the prize [Golden Silk Armor], and Huang Xiaoshi and Wei Ming won the prize through boxing, which became a good story.
"Haha." After hearing that Huang Xiaoshi was deflated, Ji Wushuang looked very happy.
"Let's go, let's go. It will be noon if we continue talking." Huang Xiaoshi waved to Ji Wushuang.
After Ji Wushuang put the golden armor into her arms, she lifted her whip and got on the horse. She clamped her legs together and the horse galloped forward like it was joyful.
Watching Ji Wushuang leave was a real pleasure.
Beautiful women, BMWs, beautiful women, and sports cars. When these two things are mixed together, there is really an attraction that makes men unable to take their eyes away.
…
While the imperial court was actively preparing for the expedition to Goryeo, the military minister Wang Fu died suddenly at home.
The emperor ordered the Jin Yiwei to investigate the case. As a result, the Jin Yiwei had just taken over the investigation. In teahouses across the country, people were already telling stories about this strange case.
I saw the storyteller. He first finished telling the life of Mr. Wang in a few sentences, and then told the strange features of the case. Finally, he explained the killer's techniques as if he was witnessing it at the scene.
Come.
After hearing the storyteller's story, everyone suddenly realized that the case was caused by the killer of [Tianyi City].
…
Prince Cheng's Mansion, in the secret room.
The Lord of Tianyi City, who frightened the four killers, was kneeling on one knee with his head lowered.
King Cheng was sitting on a chair sipping tea, while Bai Jiuchi was holding a text message that had just been sent from Feige, his face full of anger.
King Cheng not only needs white gloves to make money for him, but also shadow troops who can perform black operations.
[Tianyicheng] is the shadow army established by King Cheng under the cover of others.
[Tianyicheng] used Jianghu assassination as an excuse to hide the motives of his political assassination. In recent years, he has pulled out many impoverished households for King Cheng.
However, this time, I don’t know why, but the news was leaked, and it was leaked extremely thoroughly.
There was no grievance between King Cheng and Wang Fu, the Minister of Military and Aircraft, and there was no interest exchange between them. Bai Jiuchi was the one who wanted to assassinate him.
Bai Jiuchi needs to delay and interrupt the Military Aircraft Department's troop deployment plan, because he needs a certain amount of time to extract King Cheng's men.
This emperor simply did things as he came up with them, and he did so in a hurry, regardless of whether the people below were ready.
This caused Bai Jiuchi trouble.
Originally, Bai Jiuchi thought that once the battle in Annan was over, King Cheng's subordinates would return to their original base. As a result, the emperor moved faster. He wanted to send the troops drawn from Annan directly to the Japanese island.
Yes, the emperor had no intention of saving Goryeo. His plan was simple: since the main force of the Japanese island was in Goryeo, it would be better to give Goryeo to the Japanese.
The imperial navy first destroyed the Japanese navy, then occupied the southern port of Goryeo, and then blocked the sea area to prevent the Japanese soldiers from returning to reinforcements.
The Japanese country is a small country with few people. These hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses may be used by the whole country. Now the entire Japanese country has no soldiers at all.
The Japanese were destroyed first, and then Goryeo was probably also smashed to pieces by the Japanese. Maybe the King of Goryeo and the Crown Prince were also killed by the Japanese.
As the father of Goryeo, I should just try my best to clean up this mess.
After one battle, the imperial court was able to incorporate Goryeo and Japan into its territory.
This strategy is not bad, but it is King Cheng's people who want to invade Japan.
That's why Bai Jiuchi had to try every means to delay time so that he could get his people out.
…
"To be honest, I thought you did a pretty good job at this job just now." Bai Jiuchi said to the Lord of Tianyi City, "Look, in just a few days, it has become known to the whole world.
Tell me, what's going on?"
The Lord of Tianyi City felt a pain in his mouth and heart at the same time. What's going on? The storyteller must be a famous scholar in the world. How do I know what's going on?
"Check, even if you turn over Tianyi City, you have to find out who leaked the news." Bai Jiuchi said fiercely to the Lord of Tianyi City: "I would rather kill the wrong person than let it go!
"
The Lord of Tianyi City put his hands on one knee and said: "I obey your orders."
King Cheng put down the teacup, walked to the Lord of Tianyi City, and helped him up.
King Cheng put the hand of the Lord of Tianyi City in his own palm, patted it, and said to him: "I know it has been difficult for you these past years. But you are the only one who can handle the big responsibilities here.
I have put my life in your hands.
I can rest assured if you do things."
"Your Majesty." The Lord of Tianyi City choked with sobs and said, "Subordinate, I will obey my orders to the death."
