The officers and soldiers in the team were so regretful that their intestines turned green, and they all cast their hateful eyes on the dwarf. But the dwarf didn't understand, and pointed at Yao and said, "That's him! I went out to play in the city, but I was kidnapped by them on the way. They also kidnapped me.
I threw him into the river. You should quickly capture him and send him to the palace to let the emperor do whatever you want!"
"Shut up!" and sent him to the palace? All these people wished they could give him a kick.
But the imperial guard said again: "He should be sent to the palace. After all, he is Qianzhou boy. I heard that Qianzhou people are also waiting for news in the palace. You go quickly."
The officers and soldiers nodded, took the dwarf and left.
Wangchuan and Huangquan worked together to help Yao, who still had not recovered, back to the county principal's mansion, and told the concierge: "No one can be let in. Madam will not see guests."
But the guard outside the door realized that something seemed wrong, and rushed to the palace to tell Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng. Unfortunately, it was too late. When he arrived at the palace gate, the guard told him: "
I'm afraid the Ninth Prince and the Lord of Ji'an County have already walked onto Changyang Avenue." Changyang Avenue is the road leading to Qiankun Palace. Except for the princes, ministers, emperors and relatives, ordinary people cannot walk on it.
The imperial guard stamped his feet and simply sat outside the palace gate and waited.
At this moment, Feng Yuheng was pushing Xuan Tianming across Changyang Avenue and onto the square in front of the Qiankun Hall. Looking from a distance, there were many people standing in the Qiankun Hall, some familiar and some unfamiliar.
Feng Yuheng also saw his father Feng Jinyuan.
Xuan Tianming shrugged: "The old man's desire to show off has come back again. This is because he got the news that we are going back to Beijing. We have summoned all the ministers to wait for the test device."
Feng Yuheng stared at the unfamiliar silhouettes in the hall and pointed: "Are they from Qianzhou?"
Xuan Tianming nodded, "Probably."
While they were talking, the two of them had arrived in front of the palace. Zhang Yuan had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw the two of them arriving, he quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Your Highness, County Lord, you are back. Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me quickly."
Come into the palace, slave."
He deliberately did not speak softly, enough for the people inside the hall to hear. At this time, everyone in the hall turned their heads to look at the door. Even Tianwu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had his eyes widened.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the thing Xuan Tianming was holding in his hand. The thing was covered with red cloth and could not be seen what it was. But the purpose of their return to Beijing was known to everyone, so it was not clear what it was.
It's hard to guess that the thing covered under the red cloth should be the first steel weapon made by Dashun.
General Pingnan was the most impatient. He was the first to rush forward, his voice trembling a little: "It's done? It's really done?"
Feng Yuheng smiled and nodded at him, "Old General, it's done."
In one sentence, General Pingnan almost shed tears. He tried his best to restrain his excitement and quickly made way for them. Feng Yuheng pushed Xuan Tianming forward step by step, and finally stood in the main hall.
Above, facing Tianwu.
She let go of her wheelchair, took two steps forward, knelt down and saluted: "My daughter-in-law bows to my father, long live my father!"
The more Tianwu looked at his daughter-in-law, the more satisfied he became, and he was ready to get up and help her. However, his son coughed and stopped his thoughts.
"Ah Heng! Get down quickly." Tianwu thought why there was flattery in his voice?
Zhang Yuan walked back to him and whispered: "Your Majesty, be more reserved."
Tianwu gritted his teeth and twitched the corners of his mouth and whispered back to him: "You are so reserved!" Then he said anxiously: "What, the steel is made?"
Feng Yuheng nodded, "Not only did I smelt steel, but I also used the first piece of steel to make Dashun's first steel weapon." As he said that, he turned to look at Xuan Tianming.
Xuan Tianming raised the object in his hand high, attracting everyone's attention, and then Feng Yuheng stretched out his hand and opened the red cloth in one fell swoop.
As the red cloth was unveiled, everyone collectively gasped, and even Emperor Kaiwu stood up from the dragon throne.
I saw that the long knife held in Xuan Tianming's hand was emitting a chilling air, shining brightly, and the blade shone brightly on people. The clarity was almost equivalent to restoring the person.
They had seen such a weapon once, which was the one used by Feng Yuheng to break Zong Sui Tiejing on the first day of the new year. But after all, it belonged to Feng Yuheng personally, even if she promised to turn steelmaking into Dashun.
It is used, but whether it can be refined or not is still two questions.
For more than half a year, both the government and the public were on tenterhooks. Especially after learning that Feng Yuheng had gone to the camp, they were worried all day long. While they were anxious to hear news about steelmaking, they were also afraid of hearing about it.
Steelmaking news.
People are afraid of failure, afraid that they have waited hard for half a year, but in the end they have waited for the result that Dashun can't make steel at all. Today, Emperor Tianwu said that he would summon all the ministers to discuss the matter, but the matter was discussed from just after noon to evening, and obviously nothing happened.
Something has happened, but they are not allowed to leave, and they are just chatting with them. Smart people would guess that there must be something going on here. However, they did not expect that it was the Ninth Prince and the Chief of Ji'an County who came back.
The new steel was just finished, and the steel weapon was in hand. General Pingnan was the only one who could wear the weapon into the Qiankun Palace. He couldn't wait any longer, took out the sword from his waist, and ran towards the steel knife in Xuan Tianming's hand.
Cut it over.
Feng Yuheng saw that the sword in his hand was a treasure. It was a gift from the late emperor. General Pingnan had carried it with him from the first day he went to the battlefield, and it is still well preserved today.
She was afraid that the broken sword would hurt people's hearts, so she was about to stop her, but she saw Xuan Tianming shaking his head slightly at her. So she turned and said: "If the general's sword is broken, Aheng will use new steel to help you build another one."
handle."
As soon as he finished speaking, General Pingnan slashed the blade with his sword, and with a bang, the sword broke into two pieces.
The hilt of the sword was still in his hand, but the gem at the tiger's mouth gradually lost its luster, as if his life had passed away with the broken sword. General Pingnan looked at the sword in his hand that had been with him for decades, and suddenly laughed.
He laughed loudly, then looked at Feng Yuheng and said excitedly: "Girl, do what you just said count?"
Before she could answer, Tianwu, who was standing in front of the dragon chair, became anxious, "If you make a sword, give it to me first! Pingnan, please don't compete with me, okay?"
General Pingnan turned around and said without courtesy: "Girl, you promised me first!"
"No matter!" Tianwu became more unreasonable and said, "Anyway, you have to give it to me."
Xuan Tianming was helpless. An emperor was arguing with his ministers for something, and the old man had the nerve to do so. He waved his hand and said, "Everyone has a handle, and they will be given together."
The two old guys nodded with satisfaction and said in unison: "That's pretty much it."
A few of them were talking and laughing about their own benefits, and the ministers who were stupidly opening their mouths in surprise have not yet recovered. Everyone knows that General Pingnan's sword is very important to him.
How important it was, not to mention that it was a reward from the late emperor, not to mention the sword from above. But now, it was broken just like that, and General Pingnan didn't feel sad at all.
People know that this is the charm of New Steel, and this is the pressure of New Steel.
The Dashun courtiers all knelt down and shouted: "Congratulations to the Emperor on the completion of the new steel!"
The remaining three people who did not kneel were too embarrassed to continue standing, so they also knelt down and said loudly: "Congratulations Dashun, you have unified the world."
Emperor Tianwu laughed for a while, and after laughing enough, he said: "What do you mean by unifying the world? Now is not the time."
Feng Yu Heng stroked her forehead, "What are you talking about? I'm not telling you clearly that one day I will dominate the world, so you all just wait for me."
Sure enough, the expressions of the three people were not very good. One of them stood up, with a burst of mighty and angry power, and looked at Xuan Tianming and said: "I wonder if I have the honor of testing the device?"
Xuan Tianming put down the steel sword, looked at the man, and asked casually: "General Qianzhou?"
The man nodded, "I'm going to punish Haisheng, please give me some advice from His Highness Ninth Prince!"
As soon as he said this, he heard the uncle Qianzhou who came with him yell angrily: "Shut up! The birth of a new national treasure in Dashun is something that we and other small countries can afford to try! Besides, His Highness Ninth Prince has legs.
I'm seriously ill, how can I give you some advice?"
"Hey!" Tianwu waved his hand, "I, Dashun, have always regarded Fan Guo as a brother and have never underestimated you. Now that Dashun has obtained new steel, it is right for the general to want to try it. As for Ming'er's legs
...You are worrying too much, even if he fights in a wheelchair, you can't beat him."
The corners of Feng Yuheng's lips twitched. The two men had the same shameless attitude. She didn't say anything more, she just pushed Xuan Tianming's wheelchair outside the hall and said as she walked: "If you want to fight, just beat him."
Come out and play, it’s spacious outside.”
As soon as this invitation was sent out, the Qianzhou military commander immediately followed him, including Dashun's people.
Emperor Tianwu was walking at the back, supported by Zhang Yuan, and asked in a low voice the eunuch next to him who had always been responsible for arguing with him: "Can Lao Jiu be able to catch the bullshit I blow?"
Zhang Yuan nodded, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Since you were young, when has His Highness Ninth Prince ever made you feel embarrassed?"
"It's true." Tianwu's face became more confident, "I don't know if Qianzhou's child has been found. Tell me, there are a few stupid people who can't even look down on a child.
I really don’t know how they transported such old gold. There is something very strange here!”
He muttered and walked to the field. A young eunuch had already brought the chair and set it up. Zhang Yuan helped Tianwu sit down. Feng Yuheng also let go of the wheelchair and moved to the side. Only Xuan Tian was left in the center of the square.
Minghe and the Qianzhou military general Xing Haisheng.
Xing Haisheng groaned, took the weapon handed over by the palace guard, took a look at it, and curled his lips, obviously not satisfied with the weapon.
Xuan Tianming said: "If you just use the weapon, I'm afraid it will be over in just one move. Since you said you want me to give you some advice, it doesn't make much sense to decide the outcome with one move. Let's do this, within thirty rounds.
, my king’s sword will never touch your weapon, how about that?”
Xing Haisheng was not trying to be brave. This was not his own weapon, and the quality could not be guaranteed at all. So he nodded, "In that case, I would like to thank His Highness Ninth Highness."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man suddenly rushed forward and stabbed Xuan Tianming with the long sword in his hand.
General Dashun frowned, and General Pingnan snorted without any politeness at all: "Shameless!" This expressed the sentiments of all Dashun officials.
But then people discovered that Xing Haisheng's shameless skills were really well practiced. Just fight. He didn't hit anyone. He used his shuriken to hit Xuan Tianming's wheelchair hard. He hit Xuan Tianming with his sword.
Tian Ming was laughed at - "It seems that you like my wheelchair very much. If so, then I will give it to you!"
As soon as these words came out, someone who was sitting in a wheelchair suddenly flew up, stepped in the air with his legs, jumped behind Xing Haisheng, kicked his back, and killed him with a "bang"
The person was kicked and staggered forward.
He staggered a few steps and fell into the wheelchair originally occupied by Xuan Tianming.
But the person who got out of the wheelchair fell to the ground gracefully and steadily, and there was no sign of being disabled at all!
