Over the imperial city, eight special "virtual spirits" appeared, and they actually had some "real dragon" expressions on them, either dragon horns, dragon scales, or dragon tails... and so on. .
Xiao Zhen glanced at the Queen Mother: "That's it."
The Queen Mother smiled slightly: "The magic is about to be completed, but it is still not enough to control the country with the prince. We still need Mr. Xiao's help."
The Queen Mother raised her hand in vain, and the huge imperial city slowly rose into the sky, revealing the darkness below, with stairs emitting a faint light emerging, extending to Xiao Zhen's feet: "Master Xiao, please."
Xiao Zhen paused for a moment, then he couldn't look back after taking one step, and walked step by step into the deep darkness.
Then the imperial city fell, the Queen Mother's triumphant and crazy laughter echoed between heaven and earth, the wind and clouds changed color, the dragon's veins vibrated, and everything gradually returned to calm.
The people in the capital were shocked.
…
Great changes occurred in the capital and Hongwu was shaken.
Xiao Zhen, the commander of the Longyi Guard, was suppressed by the Empress Dowager under the Imperial City, adjacent to Prince Qianhe. It is said that Master Xiao, who was at the national level, did not resist at that time, and neither did the Longyi Guard.
It was supposed to be a fierce battle, but it ended unexpectedly peacefully.
Both Longyiwei and Suwei were leaderless. There were constant arguments in the yamen of the Longyiwei General Administration, and Xiao Zhen's final "will" was unclear. In fact, even if Xiao Zhen clearly pointed out the successor, they would still fight.
Some people support Song Zheng, thinking that among the Longyi Guards in the world, he is the only one with the prestige and strength to take the position of commander and lead his brothers to continue to fight against the Queen Mother and the Chief Assistant to avenge Mr. Xiao.
But there were also people who felt that they could do that position themselves, so they started arguing, and for a while they were disturbing each other, and Long Yiwei was not at peace.
In the Huang Mansion, Huang Yuanhe commented with a smile on his defeated general: "Xiao Zhen, you are still too reserved."
"How can an official act on his own initiative?"
"The Queen Mother was sure that he was actually sincerely serving the public, so she used her own heart to create a cage to trap him."
"The resentment of Dragon Vein is very great. If Xiao Zhen resists, the three strong men of the country will definitely be able to escape if they join forces, but they are afraid of severely damaging Dragon Vein. Hongwu's national destiny is already extremely weak, and the power of Dragon Vein is weaker than it was during the time of the Northern Expedition." How many times that many times, if we are hit hard by him again, I am afraid that the world will really be in chaos and the people will be in dire straits."
"Xiao Zhen didn't want to see this scene, so he had no choice but to be suppressed by the Queen Mother in order to calm Longmai's resentment."
He suddenly smiled: "Lin Yingru, it's really a good trick. The emperor is already unconscious and the penis is broken, but she can still be pregnant with a dragon seed, tsk tsk!"
The voice in the darkness replied: "The emperor's injury should have been cured long ago. If the medicine is used properly, the regeneration of the dragon root will not be a problem."
Huang Yuanhe nodded: "The Queen Mother didn't let him wake up."
"The emperor is always in a coma, so he may die at any time. Moreover, the emperor has always had no descendants. The dragon species at this time will definitely inherit the destiny of the country in the future.
The dragon species was killed while it was still being conceived, and the dragon veins had no hope, so naturally there was great resentment. Unfortunately, the dragon veins were powerful but not very spiritual, and could not distinguish right from wrong, so they were taken advantage of by the Queen Mother."
In the history of Hongwu, there were cases where ministers killed dragons. But Xiao Zhen's situation this time was very different. He killed the only heir to the throne at the end of the dynasty.
The Hongwu Celestial Dynasty has been in turmoil. For Longmai, it and the Hongwu Celestial Dynasty have a symbiotic relationship with each other.
It is true that Hongwu will die if the dragon's veins are cut off, but if Hongwu dies, the dragon's veins will also wither.
The closer to the end of the dynasty, the more fearful and nervous Dragon Vein became. The only dragon species died, and Dragon Vein's resentment immediately broke out.
The voice in the darkness said: "There is a huge quarrel within Long Yiwei. These stupid people, if it were not for Xiao Zhen, they would have died long ago without a burial place."
Huang Yuanhe smiled: "Let them fight for it. The heat is almost over. Song Zheng should enter Beijing with the imperial edict."
"My lord, it's a good plan!"
…
At the same time that the Queen Mother and the First Assistant reached an agreement, Huang Yuanhe asked for a decree: to appoint Song Zheng as the new commander of the Longyi Guard.
The reason why I asked for it in advance was because I was afraid that I would regret it later.
From Huang Yuanhe's point of view, it's really ridiculous that the Long Yiwei people are fighting over each other. The commander is an official of the imperial court and must be appointed by the imperial court. Which one of you is sure to get the appointment decree from the Queen Mother?
He holds this decree in his hand. If he can control Song Zheng, he will give the decree to Song Zheng and ask him to rush to the capital. If he cannot, of course he will keep it in his hands.
This decree was now delivered to Song Zheng using the spiritual formation.
Song Zheng already knew everything that happened in the capital. He had a dull expression on his face and seemed not to be sad at all because Xiao Zhen was imprisoned. The three peak ancestors still protected him every day.
No one else has ever seen Lord Song open the Little Dongtian World. The Longyi Guards privately speculated that the current Lord Song might not dare to open the Little Dongtian World. Although he passed the test of the imperial seal, Qi Bingchen also
The ancestors waited until they could find a flaw, but the intuition of spiritual beasts was very keen. They believed that as long as they opened the small cave world, the insects would definitely bite them.
"Send the order, enter the capital!"
The three peak ancestors took the order, but compared to the previous plan, everything seemed simpler this time.
The 1,500 powerful Fighting Beast Xiuqi was no longer with him, and only three peak ancestors accompanied him. The rest of the people who were familiar with Song Zheng all stayed in Jiangnan.
Including Lin Zhengu and Liu Chengfei.
He planned to start from Huzhou City and go all the way north, passing through Jingzhou. As soon as he entered Jizhou, he would be supported by the Chief Minister. The Chief Minister of Jizhou was the disciple of the Chief Minister.
The day before leaving, Huzhou Prefect Lei Minzhi prepared a banquet for Mr. Song, but Mr. Song refused to attend.
Lei Minzhi sighed secretly, wondering if he should consider finding a way out.
Song Zheng and his party set out early the next morning before dawn, and there was no one inside or outside the city gate to see them off.
The three peak ancestors walked together and fled quickly. It only took a day and a half from Huzhou City to the outside of the capital city. Afterwards, Song Zheng quickly entered the Longyi Guard Yamen and showed the Queen Mother's decree. In front of the three peak ancestors,
With Zu's support, he succeeded him as the commander of Long Yiwei.
During this process, neither Fan Zhenguo nor Hu Zhenguo appeared.
But the whole world knew that Song Zheng was the new commander of the Longyi Guard.
The Queen Mother was deep in the palace and did not show up. Huang Yuanhe Mingmen came down to inform Song Zheng: Go to the Huang Mansion to pay a visit in the evening. When they arrived outside the Longyiwei Yamen, Shi Shiran handed over his name card and waited to be saluted in. He even fantasized about it.
If Song Zheng knew how to behave, he should come out to greet him in person.
Unexpectedly, after waiting in the concierge for a while, a man from the household came out and said, "Sir, please come back. Our master is not here."
The disciple was stunned and asked: "Are you not there? Where have you gone? Have you told him that I am a disciple of Lord Chief Assistant?"
Baihu said: "I told you, but the master is indeed not here. He has returned to Huzhou."
The disciple thought he heard wrongly: "What did you say? He went back to Huzhou? He just came to the capital, what will he do when he goes back?"
"How do we know this?" Baihu stared and turned around to go back. The disciple quickly called out: "Then please inform Mr. Lou Difan again. I can also give him the name card of the chief minister."
Lou Difan is one of the three ancestors sent by the Chief Assistant to personally "protect" Song Zheng. He has followed the Chief Assistant for the longest time and is headed by him.
Baihu looked at him sideways and sneered: "Three Lou Difans tried to spy on the secrets of our Long Yi Guard, but they have been captured and sent to Hell!"
"What did you say?!" The disciple was shocked, and Baihu had already snorted and went back. He wanted to catch up and ask for explanation, but the vicious Longyi guards pulled out their flying swords and blocked the way.
The disciple was frightened and quickly returned to Huang Mansion to report the situation truthfully.
After hearing this, Lord Chief Assistant was also stunned, and then he frowned and thought for a while.
He secretly activated the "virtual dim lamp", but this time, there was no response from "Song Zheng". Feeling something bad, he activated another virtual dim lamp again, Ma Hongsheng's one, and then his heart skipped a beat.
, there was no response from Ma Hongsheng!
Huang Yuanhe's heart was very big, not just Jiangnan and Lingnan. He was not afraid of Jin Bohou's increasing age. Jin Bohou's backer was the emperor, and the emperor was unconscious all the time, so he also plotted against Jin Bohou and Ma Hongsheng.
When he contacted Jin Bohou, Hua Zengsui was worrying about how to contain his Yuezhou. The chief minister told him that Song Zheng was everyone's common enemy, so he grabbed the last straw to save his life.
It's not that Hua Zengsui didn't tell Ma Hongsheng about Xu Mingdeng, it's that the chief assistant didn't tell Hua Zengsui at all.
He handed the Xu Ming Lantern to Hua Zengsui, who handed it over to Ma Hongsheng. He only told Ma Hongsheng that this was a treasure used to plot against Song Zheng, but you must be used as bait.
Ma Hongsheng was very loyal to Hua Zengsui and had no doubt that he had taken him into his body.
When plotting against Song Zheng, the First Assistant urged him from the air, split Xu Ming Deng in two, and controlled Ma Hongsheng, so that the First Assistant could truly occupy the land of the ten states.
But now, not only did Song Zheng's Xudian Deng lose his response, but Ma Hongsheng's also disappeared. He frowned and refused to believe it: "I am a civil servant who governs the country, how could Song Zheng deceive me!"
…
In the city of Huzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, Song Zheng came out of his little cave world and gave an order: "Fight beasts and practice riding, follow me to the capital!"
Also walking out together was Zeng Qianhu.
Song Zheng clasped his fingers and flicked, and a series of spiritual talismans flew through the air. It didn't take long before the peak ancestors who received the jade talismans responded one by one and appeared on the top of Huzhou City. They raised their hands and said with a smile: "Farewell to Master Song!
"
"I wish you great success in going to the capital and great achievements!"
Song Zheng rode on the back of a Celestial Silkworm and Thunder Tiger. He bowed his hands to the ancestors and everyone around him and left with a smile. Lei Minzhi was secretly thankful that he didn't act carelessly.
Master Song's team is very large. Du Qianhu, Zeng Qianhu, and Li Sanyan all stayed in Jiangnan. They are the backbone of Song Zheng's team in Jiangnan. With them, Song Zheng is sure to control Jiangnan.
Shi Zhonghe, Lin Zhengu, Liu Chengfei and others followed the fighting beasts and rushed to the capital.
