The first spring rain since Chai Rong succeeded to the throne fell so thoroughly that all the dust in the sky above the imperial capital was swept away, and the sky turned green. The rain stopped at noon on the third day, and people
Still unable to get out of the vast rain and cold, an even more biting coldness enveloped me.
Chai Rong sat high on the dragon chair, looking at the orderly array of civil and military officials below him. He couldn't help but feel a sense of inability to be heroic. The weather was going well, and everything seemed to be going smoothly. This event was a bit cold in spring.
The rain made the people of Zhou Dynasty feel the new atmosphere of the new emperor's accession to the throne.
It had been an hour or two since he had gone to court. Chai Rong did not see the old figure. What he learned was that Grand Master Feng was ill and needed to take leave to recuperate. Such an act of beheading first and then showing off made the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty couldn't help but have a look on his face.
There was a hint of anger, but it didn't happen.
After retreating from the court, he left Zhao Kuangyin behind. Zhao Kuangyin did not have much information about Grand Master Feng. And he was busy dealing with the new government affairs of the Forbidden Army. Ling Tianyun had already returned there since the last time when envoys from various countries came to congratulate him.
In the courtyard, in addition to official duties, he stayed alone with the new emperor, who seemed to have a beautiful scenery but hidden ambitions. All government affairs were already on track. He was just waiting for the Great Zhou Kingdom to rest and recuperate, and the step towards unifying the world was getting closer.
step.
On the second day of February, the dragon raised its head. It happened to be the second day of February. Chai Rong felt a little uneasy in his heart. The spies who closely monitored the north sent back reports from time to time. Wang Dezhong, the minister of the Northern Han Dynasty, was sent as an envoy to Khitan. He
He felt that this matter was like a fish bone stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out. He had long known that the Northern Han Dynasty was going to make big moves, but he didn't expect that the move would be so fast. If he sent people into Khitan, he would definitely launch a war against the Great Zhou Dynasty.
.
"Brother, are you worried that Wanyan Wudi and others will cause trouble in the imperial capital?" Zhao Kuangyin, as the former commander of the Fei Que Battalion, of course knows about these ultimatums. These are the members of the Fei Que Battalion outside who have sacrificed their lives for
The ultimatum for coming back. And he also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he asked Chai Rong worriedly.
"This is one of them. The Northern Han Dynasty has always been grudges against our great Zhou Dynasty, and wants to avenge the late emperor's seizure of the emperor. However, Liu Yu does not have the strength yet. He led the Khitan wolf cavalry to invade our great Zhou Dynasty. This time
War is very important to me, the Great Zhou Dynasty. If we lose, we will never be able to recover. If we win, it will be a waste of people and money. It is not my intention. The Great Zhou Dynasty finally rests and recuperates. If there is another big war, the Great Zhou Dynasty will be in trouble.
It is difficult to afford it. In addition, although Wanyan Wudi cannot take action in the imperial capital, most of the martial arts elites in the Khitan have joined our imperial capital, and they are also under the banner of the Khitan mission, so we cannot do any harm to them.
Action. Even if the two countries are fighting, they will not kill the envoys, let alone they come to congratulate us."
"Having said that, just because Wanyan Wudi doesn't take action doesn't mean that other martial arts cultivators won't take action. Yelu Wuji and Xiao Yujing are all famous figures in the martial arts world. And I only have the Feng Lian Dao hero in Da Zhou.
One person is holding it up. Although the sword god Zhang Xiaofeng is also in the imperial capital, he is originally from Wuyue, but the Feng Lian Dao hero and Wanyan Wudi are unable to take action. If Zhang Xiaofeng is willing to take action, it will be difficult for him alone to resist the two Khitans.
A pincer attack by masters. Not to mention the infiltration of martial arts forces from various countries. Those martial arts masters sent by various countries must want to reap the benefits and will not help."
"I'm just afraid of the other masters who are waiting and watching. They are also a force that cannot be underestimated. Although the talents of the third brother and Ye Yinfeng are outstanding, they have not yet fully grown up. If they face Yelu Wuji again, they will be afraid
It's also a very bad situation, but I just hope that Wanyan Wudi can lead the Khitan people to withdraw from the imperial capital. In this case, the imperial capital will be safer. And those masters from other countries who are waiting and watching will not be able to cause trouble rashly."
A hint of worry flashed in his eyes, Chai Rong rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile. The imperial capital is so big that it can accommodate more than a million people. Although the imperial capital is as strong as an iron wall, for ordinary people, if it is
The martial arts masters who have sneaked into the imperial capital are not worth mentioning. Although there are tens of thousands of forbidden troops in the imperial capital, facing the martial arts masters who fly over the walls, even if they have a strong bow and a powerful crossbow, it is
You cannot kill them one by one.
In this imperial capital, in addition to the gathering of wealthy families, there is also a place where hundreds of civil and military officials of the Great Zhou Kingdom live. Killing one official may not break the bones of the Great Zhou, but two, three, or even more.
The Great Zhou Kingdom had finally achieved peace and prosperity, but then a storm of chaos arose in the imperial capital. How could he, Chai Rong, sit on the throne of peace?
"I'm afraid that I don't know what Wanyan Wudi and others are going to do. Some of them have been reduced to pieces, and even the most elite members of the Flying Bird Battalion can't find their traces. I'd better go out of the palace. In this case, it will be better
I know more about it. Firstly, I am more familiar with the martial arts forces in the imperial capital. Secondly, I can collect information outside the palace in a more timely manner. There are hidden guards in the palace to protect me, so I feel more at ease."
Zhao Kuangyin suggested to Chai Rong that he had not left the palace for several days. In addition to personal matters, he also helped Chai Rong handle some national affairs.
"Forget it, you may not have returned to the house for a long time. Also, tell your third brother that they should be careful these days. Although they are surrounded by experts to help, they must be careful even if they are not afraid of anything." Chai Rong knew what Zhao Kuangyin was thinking, and he
He ordered the other party, feeling vaguely uneasy.
"You said that my uncle and other members of the Feng family were captured by the Khitan Wolf Blood Hall?" Ling Tianyun's eyes shot out a cold light and asked Feng Yanke again. After rescuing his cousin Feng Yanke, he
He had never had the opportunity to ask about the whereabouts of other members of the Feng family. Only then did he have the opportunity to ask.
"Yes, the people who escaped from the Feng family were all captured by the Khitans and the people from the Wolf Blood Hall. As for where they were captured, I don't know." Feng Yanke's eyes flashed with sadness.
Xiang Ling Tianyun said. And it was only after he fought bloody battles from the enemy that he escaped and ascended to heaven. Moreover, he also said that there were not many people left in the Feng family, and those loyal martial artists were already helping him break out of the encirclement.
After his death, apart from him, only Feng Bupo and his wife were left in the Feng family.
After hearing the news, Ling Tianyun's mind was like lightning. He didn't understand why the Khitans would take away Feng Bupo and his wife. How could he accept such bad news? But after experiencing so many disasters, he was no longer that kind of person.
He is an impulsive young boy, but there are so many fellow martial arts cultivators in this courtyard.
"This situation is really difficult. Don't worry, Mr. Ling. You can be sure that if the Khitans can appear in the imperial capital openly, there must be a conspiracy. But we don't know who the Khitans' conspiracy is mainly aimed at. It must not be today's people."
His Majesty the Emperor, then there are various martial arts sects in the Great Zhou Kingdom, but so far we have not heard of any sects being attacked and suffering casualties, so there is a possibility that the Khitan people are mainly targeting one person."
Mr. Feng, who was swinging a feather fan in one hand, was like the clever Zhuge in this world. His green clothes were fluttering, and his demeanor of an aristocratic man was heart-wrenching. Seeing the sad and angry expression on Ling Tianyun's face, he couldn't help but comfort him.
.If the only one who can see this situation clearly is this outsider, Feng Liandao and others are all in this situation, so it is naturally difficult to see the situation clearly. But Mr. Feng, a scholar as elegant as a god, can't see clearly.
Otherwise, a pair of wise eyes glow with a wisdom-like luster, which makes people feel relieved.
"In that case, what should we do?" Ye Yinfeng is not low in intelligence, but he is not good at conspiracies and other calculations. He asked Mr. Feng.
"It's very simple. One word, that is, wait. If Xiao Ke guessed correctly, someone from the palace should have come out." Mr. Feng showed a mysterious smile confidently. He gave everyone a relieved look, and on his body
The kind of confidence he exuded convinced everyone.
"Xiao Feng, we don't have much time left. The envoys from various countries are leaving soon. The Khitan people will definitely use some tricks among these envoys to cause them to become chaotic, so that they can cause trouble." Feng Lian Daoyan.
Although Li looked less worried, he still reminded the other party.
"The missions of various countries are complicated and messy, and it is really impossible to guard against them. Except for some ordinary soldiers in the Khitan Kingdom's missions, all other martial arts masters have disappeared. They will definitely find the missions of other countries to take action first, so
Let the imperial capital really be in chaos. Among these countries, which one is almost as powerful as the Great Zhou Kingdom, it must be your Southern Tang Kingdom. In terms of national strength, financial resources, and geographical territory, the Southern Tang Dynasty is no less powerful than the Great Zhou Kingdom.
Zhou, if all the Southern Tang Dynasty’s envoys were killed in this imperial capital, then you can imagine the consequences.”
Mr. Feng shook his feather fan and his eyes fell on Ye Yinfeng and Li Xiaoyao, and his firm tone made everyone take a breath of cold air. If it is as he said, Southern Tang and Dazhou will definitely go to war.
, the war was raging, but it was the Khitan Kingdom that reaped the benefits.
"Thank you sir for your advice. I'll take my leave first." How could Ye Yinfeng not know the seriousness of the situation? He immediately jumped up and Mr. Chaofeng bowed his hands. In his heart, whether he was from the Southern Tang Dynasty or not, he
We do not want the two countries to launch an unnecessary war due to misunderstanding, and the consequences will be very serious.
Li Xiaoyao and Ye Yinfeng left in a hurry, and the people in the courtyard did not feel better because of their departure. On the contrary, a darker cloud hung over their hearts. Mr. Feng's analysis was not satisfactory.
It makes no sense, but once something like this happens, it will be a bloody war, and tens of thousands of civilians will be injured. No one can look directly at the sight of piles of bones and hundreds of miles of desolation.
"As far as Xiao Ke knows, Young Master Ling is the sworn brother of General Zhao and the current Holy Emperor. In this regard, Young Master Ling can use the Flying Bird Battalion under General Zhao. Of course, Young Master Ling can also take the opportunity to use this mysterious elite
Keep it in your hands. If people don't know, there will be clues unless they do nothing. As long as Mr. Ling searches carefully, there will be traces. As for the missions from other countries, there is no need to monitor them for the time being. They are in Khitan
There is no use value in human eyes. As a figure in the imperial capital, you might as well pay attention to it."
Ling Tianyun knew that this matter was extremely urgent. As soon as he heard this, he rushed out and headed straight for Zhao Mansion.
However, what he didn't expect was that after he left, a Taoist priest with a Taoist spirit came to the courtyard with steps like clouds. The Taoist priest did not stay in the courtyard for too long, but just waited with Feng Lian Dao.
They chatted for more than half an hour, and then he left. Also leaving with him was the master thief Ying Gong with a sly eyebrow and rat-like eyes. His wretched figure walked together with the Taoist who looked like a fairy.
