"Brother Cheng Xian sacrificed his life to kill the enemy and would rather die than retreat, just like the belief we set when we first met: serve the country with loyalty and die. Today I am still a person in the world of the world, and brother Cheng Xian is a ghost in the underworld. Humans and ghosts are separated forever, so this life is difficult
See."
"What face do I stand in the world today, and what face do I have when I see my brother Cheng Xian who is under the Nine Springs? Compared with brother Cheng Xian, I have already received enough, and I really have no face to suffer any more."
"Although the work is accomplished, the body has died, but only the righteousness remains in the world."
"Oh my dear brother, my dear brother, if you have a soul in heaven, just open your eyes and see if this empire is what you want."
Yang Longting stretched out his hands and faced the sky, his white hair was disheveled, and he was already crying.
What the hell! This is a eulogy for me. Wait for me, wait for me.
Under the stands, Cheng Dalei gritted his teeth.
Emperor Ming waved his hand: "Okay, okay, people cannot be resurrected after death, so you must also express your condolences."
"I pray to your majesty, please grant Cheng Dalei a reward to comfort Brother Cheng Xian's spirit in heaven." Yang Longting suddenly knelt down.
"Of course, if I don't reward such a brave man, wouldn't it make the world feel cold?"
The scholars in the audience were also moved to tears. Look, look, what does it mean to do great things without taking credit, what does it mean to be friends and walk together, those days no longer exist... Yang Longting is a role model for the world to be friends.
Now, there are still people who have sinister intentions to mirror the God of War. This is to use the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman, and to speculate on the brightness of the sun and the moon with the fire of a firefly.
Emperor Ming stood up and held Yang Longting's hands: "Don't refuse anymore. The empire still relies on you tiger generals."
Yang Longting lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty is so kind to me, and I will never be able to repay you even if I die."
"We need to cultivate more heroes like you for the empire. If there are more people like you, the empire can be long-term and stable, and I can sleep peacefully." Emperor Ming pointed to Cheng Dalei in the audience: "Niu Xiaowei's military command letter
, then you will hand it over to him personally."
"I obey the decree."
His eyes fell on Cheng Dalei. At this moment, he was still standing under the stands, and many people looked at him with a hint of envy.
This ceremony is more like a kind of inheritance. Yang Longting is the God of War today. Will Cheng Dalei become the God of War tomorrow? Cheng Dalei must have a place in the future imperial court.
With envious eyes, Cheng Dalei slowly walked up to the stands. He finally stepped from the audience to the stage step by step.
Several eunuchs stood beside Yang Longting. In their hands, they held the government, swords, military seals, and official certificates for Cheng Dalei.
For some reason, Yang Longting felt a little dizzy, probably because of the heat. After all, he had stood in the sun for too long. Fortunately, after today, he could go back and leave this ghost place far away.
At this time, Cheng Dalei was already standing in front of him, his head lowered, and they were about three steps away from each other.
This feeling of uneasiness became more intense, and his temples were pounding. Yang Longting tried his best to contain it, and glanced at Cheng Dalei in front of him. Naturally, he had heard of Niu Sanjin. It was said that Emperor Ming valued him very much and would be the rising star of the future empire.
General star.
You still have to deal well with this kind of person. After all, he is still young and his future is unlimited.
Yang Longting reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Good man, what the empire lacks are young heroes like you!"
The scholars in the audience looked envious. In today's empire, Yang Longting is the idol of many people. Since he came to the capital, many people wanted to see him but could not, but today, he actually praised Cheng Dalei personally.
Yang Longting looked at Cheng Dalei and frowned slightly.
Logically speaking, Cheng Dalei should kneel down at this time and worship Emperor Ming first, and then himself. Then he should hand him the general seal and give him some words of comfort and encouragement.
But Cheng Dalei stood in front of him with his hands lowered, motionless.
The atmosphere dried up slightly, and Yang Longting smiled and said: "Your Majesty is a great kindness. I, as ministers, should keep it in mind. In the future, we will work more for your Majesty and the empire."
"I have something that I want you to return to me." Cheng Dalei, who had been silent all this time, said.
The voice was vaguely familiar, and the feeling of uneasiness was even stronger. Yang Long was a little distracted for a moment, and almost subconsciously asked: "What is it?"
"justice."
Cheng Dalei had raised his head and stared at Yang Longting motionlessly. Yang Longting only saw a black face with a beard. He was stunned and noticed Cheng Dalei's eyes.
He recognized it.
Yang Longting and Cheng Dalei had not met each other often, not to mention that it had been a year and he might not recognize Cheng Dalei if they met each other on the street. But at this moment, this situation, this scene, that beating heart
, tell Yang Longting everything.
The nightmare has arrived.
justice!
Everyone in the world wants justice. From generation to generation, people long for wise kings and upright officials, but they can't find it. Instead, they long for knights to be born, and knights can't find it. It's said that justice lies in the heart of the people.
Those who want justice are blessed, because they believe that there is justice in the world. But in a clean world, why does it need wise kings, upright officials, and knights? And things like the human heart are often accompanied by stupidity.
Or, there is no such thing as justice in the world.
Then rely on what you can grab with one hand, grab it, and hit those who are unjust.
The thing Cheng Dalei grabbed was a sword, so he drew the sword out of its sheath.
This sword is called Zhi Lai Zhi Go.
The incident happened so quickly that Yang Longting had just recognized Cheng Dalei when he saw a gleaming iron sword coming towards him.
Once it's here, you can't stop it.
A sword stabbed Yang Longting in the throat, but failed to penetrate.
Cheng Dalei was stunned. Today Yang Longting was wearing cloth armor. This kind of cloth armor was modeled after armor and was specially used to attend various ceremonial occasions. Even his neck was protected inside the cloth armor. Yang Longting was wearing it underneath.
The soft armor blocked Cheng Dalei's killing sword.
Cheng Dalei froze for a moment: Well, it seems a bit embarrassing.
But a lot of things can be decided in an instant. After reacting, Yang Longting stretched out his palm and slapped Cheng Dalei on the chest. Cheng Dalei underestimated Yang Longting after all. He used to crawl around on the battlefield, doing things little by little as a soldier.
from beginning to end until today.
Cheng Dalei's reaction was not slow at all. He had no time to thrust out the second sword. Cheng Dalei grabbed Yang Longting's palm and stepped back. Taking advantage of the falling force, he took Yang Longting with him and fell off the high platform.
Boom!
The two people smashed down the stands together and threw themselves into the loess, covered in dust.
It was too late, but it was so fast. Everything happened in a very short time. Emperor Ming, the civil servants and generals in the stands, the scholars watching the battle, including the Rong negotiation envoys headed by Hu Yanli, did not understand what happened.
Cheng Dalei was about to reach the sky in one step, but why did the future God of War of the Empire drag down the current God of War?
Under the stands, Cheng Dalei clenched his sword and rushed towards Yang Long.
