Chapter 13 The bad guy of the Tang Dynasty, Shi Yao, comes to see Your Majesty!
Li Xingyun did not answer the question of the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang being shattered to pieces, nor did he continue to discuss the Hunjun and the Mingjun.
Holding the black piece in his hand, after thinking again and again, he made a move in the chess game where the situation was somewhat clear.
Now he and the bad coach Yuan Tiangang are playing each other with different chess pieces.
Black first, then white, alternate moves, it's the end.
"Your Majesty, the overall situation of this chess game has been decided, and the final battle has come." Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang raised his head.
"Oh, really? I always feel that they have some back-up plan." Li Xingyun's words seemed to indicate something.
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. If the bad guys of the Tang Dynasty come forward, all the 50,000 forbidden troops will surrender. As for outside the palace, after a bloody night, the 350,000 divine warriors in Daliang have also fallen into the control of the bad guys.
Now we just need to give the order from His Majesty." Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang said confidently.
"Three hundred and fifty thousand Shenwu troops, plus fifty thousand Forbidden troops, and Liang's army of four hundred thousand, actually changed hands in one day, bad commanders, bad people, what a great skill." Li Xingyun sighed.
"After the Tang Dynasty, there were bad people in the Tang Dynasty." Yuan Tiangang, the bad guy, said seriously.
"I, can I trust you? Trust bad people?"
Li Xingyun's eyes looked very calm and calm, his dark pupils showed no trace of emotional fluctuations, and he was not worried about being a puppet emperor at all.
"Your Majesty is now the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and bad people are the Emperor's sword. This is an extremely sharp knife. Now, as the only sword holder, Your Majesty should have the confidence to control this sword."
Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang did not answer this question directly, but he believed that Li Xingyun could completely understand this sentence.
If the knife in your hand is too sharp, you won’t dare to use it boldly for fear of hurting yourself.
So no matter how sharp this knife is, it will eventually become a useless knife and be lost in time and space.
"The sword is a murderous weapon, the blade is the sky, and the back is the earth. As the emperor, if I don't even have the confidence to control it, I deserve to be bitten by the knife in my hand."
After Li Xingyun finished these words, the air fell into silence. Everything seemed so quiet.
A long time.
Li Xingyun spoke again and took the initiative to break the silence.
"One hundred thousand cavalry under the command of the famous Daliang general Wang Yanzhang?"
"Soon, he will come to surrender to Your Majesty."
"Yuan Tiangang, you seem to have prepared everything?"
"Your Majesty, in order to successfully restore the Tang Dynasty, all the bad people of the Tang Dynasty, including me, have devoted their lives for thirty years, and even alternated two generations. Similar to the bad person and traitor Wen Tao, this kind of convenience
He is the second generation of Tianjiexing, and his loyalty is no longer comparable to that of the bad guy Tianjiexing of the previous generation."
"It turns out that two generations have passed. Also, he looks only twenty years old. I'm afraid he wasn't born thirty years ago. How could he be such a bad person?"
"Your Majesty, although Wen Tao's internal strength is not high, and he is not even a minor heaven, his ability is indeed stronger than that of the previous generation Tianjiexing, and he can even sneak away under the eyes of the minister."
.........
Just when the chess game was about to be divided into winners and losers, perhaps because God did not want the result to appear too early, an extremely gentle-looking elder sister appeared outside the palace.
I saw her elegant posture, dignified behavior, walking neither fast nor slow, folding her hands on her chest, and then kneeling ten meters away from Li Xingyun with a respectful expression.
"Shi Yao, a bad person from the Tang Dynasty, please see Your Majesty!"
The delinquent Shi Yao was originally the Tianyouxing among the thirty-six captains of the delinquent Tiangang in the Tang Dynasty. He once disguised himself as Po Meng of the Xuanming Sect and helped the delinquent commander Yuan Tiangang secretly monitor the Xuanming Sect.
He has great internal strength and is in the great heaven. He is the former Emperor of Liang and Emperor of the Underworld of Xuanming Sect. After the death of Zhu Yougui, the bad commander Yuan Tiangang has personally taken action to help Shi Yao restore his identity.
No one likes to be an old woman. When she was in her youth, she pretended to be an old woman. After pretending for thirty years, she finally regained her true identity.
"Get up."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, you should say Ping Shen."
"Yuan Tiangang, do you need to talk too much?"
"I am guilty!"
"Okay, okay, let's go. It's so annoying. I'm always guilty."
Li Xingyun was too lazy to continue arguing with the stubborn old man Yuan Tiangang, the bad guy. He waved and asked Shi Yao, who was standing ten meters away, to get up and walk in front of him.
"Tell me, do you have anything important to do to interrupt my chess game with the bad guy?"
Hear the words.
Shi Yao didn't dare to stand and talk like this, for fear of offending the superior emperor.
She looked at Li Xingyun, who was sitting cross-legged, and took the initiative to kneel down not far from him.
"Your Majesty, Wen Tao, the villain and traitor who was kneeling outside the Jiao Lan Palace last night, has been exposed to the scorching sun for a long time after a night, and now he has lost his physical strength and fainted."
Shi Yao has exquisite facial features, a slightly charming face, and a purple hair shawl.
But the most eye-catching thing is not the purple hair, but the pair of peaks that hold up the fabric on the chest. When viewed up close, it turns out to be an almost perfect ball shape.
Although she has reached middle age, as a powerful person at the level of Great Heaven, her appearance and figure are undoubtedly well maintained, and she overall looks only in her thirties.
In her thirties, there is no doubt that this is the most mature age for a woman, just like a ripe fruit, waiting for a destined person to pick the fruit that she has preserved for many years.
"Really? It didn't take long before you already fainted?" Li Xingyun smiled faintly.
No one likes a traitor, and he is no exception. However, Wen Tao does have some unique abilities, which is why he had the chance to kneel outside Jiao Lan Palace and beg for his life.
"Your Majesty, although he is a Tianjiexing star among bad people, his own strength is only at the level of a middle star. After a night passed without a drop of water, plus being exposed to the scorching sun for most of the day, it is normal for him to faint due to lack of physical strength."
Shi Yao's tone was very calm, and she knelt down beside Li Xingyun, appearing very docile and obedient.
"In that case, bring him here, I want to see him." Li Xingyun waved his hand.
"As ordered, Your Majesty, please wait a moment." Shi Yao stood up and stepped back respectfully.
The next moment.
A gust of breeze blew up from where she was, and the whole person disappeared.
"Xuan Ming teaches Po Meng?" Li Xingyun's pupils suddenly shrank.
"Your Majesty has good eyesight." Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang praised.
"Thirty years... bad people come from generation to generation, Yuan Tiangang, I have to say, you are so cruel."
"When we first met, she was still a young girl in her prime. Now she has entered middle age, and her youth is gone."
"Now that she has restored her original identity, Yuan Tiangang, what are your plans for her?"
"Since Shi Yao is the Blessed Star of Heaven, he should be protecting His Majesty's side."
"I don't need it."
"I dare to ask Your Majesty, why did you refuse so decisively because of the empress's maid Ji Ruxue?"
Let’s talk here.
Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang immediately noticed something fishy and realized that Ji Ruxue had a great influence on Li Xingyun. Even the position of queen would fall into her hands.
"No." Li Xingyun shook his head.
"The witch is harming the country." Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang said in a deep voice.
"I...have already said no, Yuan Tiangang, are you deaf?"
Li Xingyun looked unhappy. He started talking like a witch or something like that when he opened his mouth. Isn't it a bit too much?
At this time.
Noticing Li Xingyun's expression, the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang knelt down and said: "Please tell me clearly that the only wife in the world who is worthy of your Majesty is probably the Empress Huanyinfang of the Qi Kingdom. Behind her stands an entire Qi Kingdom."
Only she is qualified to occupy the position of Queen of the East Palace."
"Why can't Xue'er do it?" Li Xingyun frowned.
"In my humble opinion, this enchantress has a humble status. Even if she is favored again, she will be the ninth concubine in the harem." Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang's forehead touched the ground heavily.
"Yuan Tiangang, you are such a person, you are really full of such stubborn and rigid ideas in your head." Li Xingyun was furious, but there was nothing he could do about it.
How should I put this?
As an emperor, even though he has a harem of three thousand, it is just talk.
There are three thousand people in the harem, most of them are beautiful girls, not popular at all.
The queen is the emperor's first wife and has the highest status in the harem.
The empress is equal to the emperor in terms of etiquette. She goes out in the same carriage and enters the same seat. She is also responsible for managing the harem. In theory, all the emperor's concubines, maids, and officials in the harem are her subjects.
At the same time, this is the greatest compensation he can give Ji Ruxue after Li Xingyun became emperor and could no longer devote himself to her alone.
But now he is being pushed back by the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang, an old-fashioned man who has lived for three hundred years.
He even suggested that Ji Ruxue was only worthy of being the ninth concubine in the harem. This sentence really made Li Xingyun very angry.
So what is the ninth concubine?
Under the queen, there are four concubines.
Under the fourth concubine, there is the ninth concubine.
According to the system established by the harem of the Tang Dynasty.
The four concubines are further divided into noble concubines, Shu concubines, virtuous concubines, and virtuous concubines. Putting aside the power that the four concubines have, their status is at least equivalent to that of a first-rank official in the court.
As for the nine concubines, they can be divided into Zhaoyi, Zhaorong, Zhaoyuan, Xiuyi, Xiurong, Xiuyuan, Chongyi, Chongrong and Chongyuan. Their status is equivalent to that of a second-grade official.
Going down in sequence, there is no lowest, there is still lower.
The status of the nine Jieyu people is equivalent to that of a third-grade official.
There are nine beauties, whose status is equivalent to that of a fourth-rank official.
There are nine talented people, whose status is equivalent to that of a fifth-rank official.
The twenty-seven people in Baolin have the same status as a sixth-grade official.
There are twenty-seven imperial ladies, whose status is equivalent to that of a seventh-rank official.
There are twenty-seven female concubines, whose status is equivalent to that of an official of the eighth rank.
There are also six departments responsible for the carriage, horse and clothing in the palace.
There are two persons each for Shang Gong, Shang Yi and Shang Fu. They are of the fifth rank.
The remaining female officials in each department are from the sixth to ninth grades.
Of course, equal status does not mean having power. The harem cannot interfere with politics. This is not a joke. Even the queen can only manage the affairs of the harem.
Similar to Empress Zetian, Wu Zhao and Wu Zetian counterattacked as empresses and became empresses. This is the only one who has appeared in the land of China for thousands of years.
Her experience cannot be replicated.
............
Ten minutes later.
When Shi Yao and a dozen imperial guardsmen brought the traitor Wen Tao, who was dying and seemed to be unconscious, Li Xingyun and the bad commander Yuan Tiangang did not continue to argue.
The reason is simple.
It is too early to argue about the establishment of a queen. We have just ascended the throne and proclaimed ourselves emperor, and even the enthronement ceremony and announcement to the world were not in time. Now we are discussing the matter of establishing a queen?
One more thing is.
Li Xingyun really has nothing to do against bad handsome Yuan Tiangang. This is not because he is afraid of the latter's three hundred years of skill.
The main reason is that the bad commander Yuan Tiangang kowtows to the ground after just one word. He looks like he is going to die for remonstrance and is loyal to the country, which makes him really have no choice.
He really hadn't discovered before that the bad handsome guy that everyone was afraid of had the possibility of making a death remonstrance.
At this time.
Shi Yao walked up to Li Xingyun and said in a very gentle tone: "Your Majesty, the villain and traitor Wen Tao has been brought here, and this is the Longquan Sword that was lost by Your Majesty."
Finished.
Shi Yao respectfully handed the Longquan Sword in his hand to Li Xingyun.
