Everyone in the main hall stared at such a strange scene with stunned expressions.
Concubine Ji on the throne was also stunned, but compared to everyone who was stunned, she still had more knowledge in this regard.
"Is this the method of condensing souls?" she asked.
Li Danqing silently glanced at where the man was standing just now. There was no trace of him. Even the blood that had just poured out of his body and flowed to the ground disappeared at this moment.
Li Danqing took a deep breath and seemed to have recovered from a certain emotion.
Then he turned to look at Master Ji, cupped his hands towards her, and said, "This is the method of condensing the soul."
When these words came out, some people suddenly understood, while others still looked confused.
Li Danqing had no intention of showing off, and said directly: "The so-called soul condensation method is a method commonly used in the White Wolf Army."
"The secret method is injected into the body of the recipient, and then connected with the spirit plate. If the recipient dies unfortunately within a period of time, the consciousness will transform into a spirit body, condense from the spirit plate, and transmit the message."
"In the White Wolf Army, if there is a dangerous mission that the troops have to perform, this method will be injected into the soldiers to ensure that the military headquarters can know the beginning and end of the battle ahead at the first time."
Yin Wujiang also took over the conversation at this time and said: "The requirements of the soul condensation method are strict and the duration is short. I know that the war ahead is urgent and there will be changes at any time, so I contacted Deacon Chu a few days ago and asked him about it.
Plant this method."
"I wholeheartedly hope that the situation will not develop out of control, and I hope that this law will not take effect, but I don't want everything to happen. The reason why I came a little later was to pass it as soon as possible.
The spirit plate summoned the remaining will of Deacon Chu and reported the news to the court, so I came a little late, please forgive me, Princess."
Yin Wujiang said this slowly and calmly, but he had already blocked the accusations from Lu Chenji and Xiang Luowen who had just tried to attack him. Although he did not say anything by name, Lu Chenji and Xiang Luowen
Xiang Luowen's heart sank, and his face looked a little ugly.
After all, for a while before this, they were still scolding Yin Wujiang for doing something inappropriate, but now Yin Wujiang showed that he had planned far ahead. He had already thought of today's situation and made plans in advance.
Let the court get the information about the Liao people that it has been missing.
From this point alone, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yin Wujiang is more than twice as powerful as two people.
It's no wonder that the two palace masters were speechless for a moment, but their faces turned bitter.
"So... this Chu Pang just now is actually a dead person..." Someone else whispered at this time.
Hearing this, Li Danqing glanced at the official not far away who had just been slapped by him, and then nodded.
After hearing this, everyone at the palace gate fell silent, and the official who was slapped lowered his head in shame.
Li Danqing also had no intention of meeting that person.
His face darkened, he glanced at everyone present, and immediately said: "You have seen what you should see today, and you have heard what you should hear."
"The Liao people plundered the western border, burning, killing and looting all the way. Wherever they passed, the people were in dire straits and almost died! Even my holy mountain in Wuyang would be destroyed..."
"If we negotiate for peace, the barbaric and ferocious nature of the Liao people will only think that our Wuyang court is weak and easy to bully. Then we will push even further and the situation will be out of control!"
"If the capital is moved, the large tracts of land that will be given up will definitely be devastated, and even more holy mountains will collapse and overturn. Wuyang has been in power for a hundred years, but before Wuyang, for thousands of generations, countless sages have overcome obstacles and set the twenty-eighth ideal for future generations.
Two of these holy mountains have now turned into nothingness. If they continue to retreat, if the Liao people continue like this, more holy mountains will collapse. The spiritual power of this Wuyang land will be thin, and it will be difficult for all people to survive. What shame will you have?
To meet the ancestors of the Wuyang royal family, to meet those eternal sages who founded this world!?"
"If a person lives his whole life and only seeks temporary comfort, how is he different from animals and insects?"
"It is urgent to fight the Liao people. In the past, the kings either had their own plans or were deceived by others. They made obstacles everywhere, both openly and secretly, so that the attack on the Liao never made progress."
"But from today on, I intend to attack Liao! You are worried about the world and are willing to go with me. Li Danqing is grateful to you. Regardless of the past, we are all regarded as colleagues!"
"If you miss your wife and children and want to take the children to retreat, I will never stop you."
"But if someone dares to obstruct it everywhere, or even use some crooked thinking, be careful!"
When Li Danqing said this, he suddenly paused and his gaze swept across everyone present like a torch. The civil and military officials were shocked by the momentum that Li Danqing was emitting at this moment. They lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look directly into Li Danqing's eyes.
And Li Danqing also said at this time: "Li Danqing, I will never tolerate you any more! No matter what prince or noble you are, or the master of the palace, I can still kill you!"
Li Danqing said this and glanced at everyone again.
But this time, his eyes were no longer on everyone's bodies as before, but fell straight on Lu Chenji and Xiang Luowen after a few breaths.
The meaning was very clear. He was warning these two people not to do anything that dissatisfied him again.
But Lu Chenji and Xiang Luowen have deep foundations in this court, so how can they remain silent at this time?
Once this happens, losing face is a trivial matter, but in everyone's mind, they will think that the two of them have given in to Li Danqing and drove those who are still hesitant to Li Danqing's side. Such a result is not
They can accept it.
So just like every time before, Lu Chenji and Xiang Luowen came out at this time, wanting to say something.
To refute Li Danqing.
But this time, before the words were spoken, the two of them noticed something strange.
In the past, whenever they put forward some ideas in the court, their followers would rush forward to support them, scrambling to be the first for fear of falling behind.
But this time, when they stepped forward, there were very few followers behind them, only a few close confidants who they could win over on weekdays and therefore cared about them.
Most of the others remained silent and stood there with their heads lowered. Facing their scrutinizing gazes, although they seemed embarrassed and uneasy, few of them took a step forward.
Such a scene is something that the two masters of the palace who have been in Wuyang Palace for decades have never seen before.
Their brows were furrowed, and their expressions contained both incomprehensible confusion and solemnity as they faintly realized that the situation was out of control.
"Two palace masters, please don't make things difficult for them anymore." Li Danqing's voice sounded at this moment.
The two frowned and turned to look at Li Danqing, only to see Li Danqing walking forward with a smile on his face. He glanced at the two of them and said in a deep voice: "Of course, in world affairs, you can use benefits to induce big things."
"But under the righteousness, not all people's hearts are selfish."
"The reason why great righteousness is great righteousness is because people's hearts are all filled with good thoughts. If good thoughts arise, selfish desires will be destroyed, and then..."
"I am Wu Yangchang!"
…
I don’t know whether it was intentional or not, but Li Danqing’s words in the Xiangfeng Palace quickly spread throughout Wuyang City.
It was probably the refugee incident that made the people of Wuyang City realize the incompetence of the imperial court, or perhaps the tragic collapse of the Holy Mountain today made them realize the danger of the situation.
At this time, what people often long for most is the emergence of such a hero to change the world.
Prince Li very well satisfied all the expectations of the world for a hero.
So when Li Danqing, Liu Yanzhen and Song Tong'er were walking on the streets of Wuyang City, many scenes appeared that Liu Yanzhen and Song Tong'er could not imagine, even Li Shizi himself had not expected.
In fact, this was supposed to be a very beautiful stroll.
Li Danqing, who had not returned home for nearly half a month, finally had some free time today and went back to the Prince's Mansion.
Liu Yanzhen and Song Tong'er had not seen Li Danqing for a long time, and they naturally missed Li Danqing. They wanted to visit the military camp several times like Xia Xianyin and Qingzhu, but they were afraid that they would mess up Li Danqing's plan, so they always suppressed the urge.
.
Seeing Li Danqing come back today, the two of them were overjoyed and threw themselves into Li Danqing's arms. They didn't care about their daughter's family's reserve and just kept clinging to Li Danqing.
Li Danqing felt guilty, and added that he had made a plan. He would start recruiting troops tomorrow, and then he would confront the Liao people.
Who said that Li Danqing's righteous words were majestic, but he had no idea of what the odds were, so he simply proposed to take the two of them for a walk around the city, all as a way to make up for their debt.
I just don’t want to think that this was supposed to be a deep-seated moment of solitude between you and me, but in the end it turned into something else because of Li Danqing’s bold words.
"His Royal Highness, I am Liu Tu!"
No, the three of them had just arrived at Anman Street when a man in his forties stopped in front of Li Danqing.
At first, Prince Li thought it was someone he had offended in the past who was looking for trouble. He was looking alert, but at this moment, the man took out a thick stack of banknotes from his arms and stuffed them directly into Li Danqing's hand.
, said with a smile: "I don't have much ability, I just have better luck and earn some money from doing business. I heard that the prince wanted to recruit troops to fight the enemy. I was too weak to go into battle to kill the enemy, so I collected some money from home.
, I will give it to the prince today as military supplies."
"It's a meager effort, but I hope the prince won't dislike it."
When Li Danqing heard this, he lowered his head and looked at the banknotes in his hand. They were all in the amount of one thousand taels. Judging from the thickness, there were more than ten pieces of banknotes. This was more than 10,000 taels, which was not a small amount.
On a normal day, with such a benefit from Bai Lao, Prince Li would have beamed and happily accepted the silver coins. While thinking about how to eat and drink next, he would say some words that he didn't even believe.
But today, I saw that although Liu Tu looked like a businessman, the look he was looking at Li Danqing was extremely sincere.
However, Prince Li changed his usual behavior and stared at the other person with a solemn expression. He bowed to him respectfully and said, "Allow me to thank you on behalf of the people of Wuyang."
As soon as this move came out, the people around him were also attracted, and they naturally recognized Li Danqing. For a time, the people's worries about the situation turned into their admiration for Li Danqing, and everyone donated money and materials.
Of course, it is impossible for everyone to be as generous as this guy named Liu Tu. Some people can give out a hundred taels of silver, while others can only take out a few pieces of silver. There are even some immature children who can give out money from their arms.
Take out a few coins.
But no matter how much or how little, Li Danqing always expressed his gratitude.
Seeing the crowd gathering more and more, Liu Yanzhen and Song Tong'er could only help Li Danqing collect money and thank them. They were busy until the end of the day, and the crowd had no intention of dispersing. Li Danqing was a little helpless, but considering the current situation,
, he really lacked soldiers and money, and the people's assistance was indispensable to him. He could only recruit Gongsun Zhi and bring some people to take over the donations from the people. Only then did he free up his hands a little, and took Liu Yanzhen and
Song Tonger left.
This is not because Prince Li is lazy.
He has not had a good rest for a long time. Tomorrow's recruitment of troops is the most important factor in the success or failure of the fight against the Liao people. He has to take a good rest before he can cheer up and plan for his future affairs tomorrow.
When they arrived outside the prince's residence, Liu Yanzhen and Song Tong'er were still excited.
.
"I didn't expect everyone to be so sensible. I did a rough count. When we left, the amount of donations received seemed to have exceeded 60,000 taels. This was just the large banknotes counted, and the scattered silver coins.
They are all piled up into a mountain, and there are estimated to be nearly ten thousand..."
Liu Yanzhen solemnly counted today's harvest with an excited expression on his face.
Song Tong'er also said excitedly: "That's not all. There are also many people who want to donate supplies. It is estimated that by then the pressure on rice, grain, equipment and other aspects will be much less. I also listed some of our ideas to the boss of a chamber of commerce.
Among the things that are currently in short supply, rice and food are secondary. There is a huge gap in the number of equipment, especially horses. The boss of the Chamber of Commerce seems to have a large family business, so he promised that he would find a way to raise money in the next few days, which should also relieve a lot of pressure."
When Li Danqing next to him heard this, he couldn't help but look at Song Tong'er with a strange expression and asked: "When did you know so much about these things in the military?"
Song Tong'er and Liu Yanzhen's faces turned red when they heard this. They both looked a little embarrassed. Song Tong'er tried to calm down and said, "I heard it from Wen Jun and Sister Xian Yin accidentally..."
"It doesn't count as understanding."
Liu Yanzhen also took over the conversation and said: "That's right! We are smart as ice and snow. We can understand these things at once. We don't bother to study them at all, let alone take notes..."
Li Danqing was accustomed to Liu Yanzhen's lack of self-defense.
But he didn't point it out, he just said apologetically: "I thought I would take you for a walk today, but I didn't want to encounter such a thing again..."
Liu Yanzhen, who heard this, quickly interrupted Li Danqing: "It's okay, business is important. When you defeat the Liao army in the future, we will have plenty of time to wander around..."
Liu Yanzhen said this, suddenly silent for a while, and then looked up at Li Danqing, with a little uncertainty and expectation in her eyes. The two contradictory colors merged into one in her eyes, and then fell on Li Danqing's
On the body, he asked: "Yes...right?"
Although he is usually careless, Liu Yanzhen, who has witnessed the changes in Youyun, understands the horror of war better than anyone else.
It is like a huge beast that can swallow up everyone's life in an instant, making those people you once cared about or hated no longer heard from again overnight.
She didn't want something like this to happen to Li Danqing.
So she was eager to get a definite answer from the other party's mouth.
Li Danqing looked at her, but could not say the word hanging on his lips. After a long silence, he just whispered in a low voice: "I will try my best..."
Liu Yanzhen was stunned, with a trace of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
Of course she wanted to force Li Danqing to give a positive answer, but...
She didn't want to put any more pressure on the already exhausted man in front of her.
She was just silent for a while, then raised her head again and looked directly at the other person, and then said: "Yeah."
"We are together. No matter where you go, I will follow you. If you die, we will die together!"
Li Danqing frowned: "This... I'm afraid this is inappropriate."
"Now that the danger is gone, I think you still..."
"You are going to recruit soldiers tomorrow, but have you ever thought that the soldiers you recruit are also the fathers of their children, or their father's children. Some of them like girls, and some of them are boys who are liked by girls. What do they think about them?
The people you care about and the people who care about them are precious. If you want to convince them to sacrifice their lives for you, you have to set an example first." Before Li Danqing finished speaking, Song Tong'er beside him suddenly spoke up.
Cut off Li Danqing's words.
This was the first time Li Danqing heard such serious remarks from Song Tong'er, and he was a little dazed for a moment.
"If you want them to let it go, you have to let it go yourself. We may not be able to help you much, but we will definitely not be a stumbling block for you!" Song Tong'er said again.
"On this trip, we will live together and die together!"
"Besides, we won't hold you back." Song Tong'er said.
The aura around her suddenly began to rise. The next moment, the sword intent around her body was purged. The Shaking Void Divine Sword behind her suddenly surged, and countless shadows of the Shaking Void Flying Sword appeared.
Li Danqing looked at the other party in astonishment, and at this moment, Liu Yanzhen on the side also suddenly laughed, and she said: "This time, it is different from that in Yingshui County, we can also protect you!"
After Liu Yanzhen said this, a sharp light suddenly flashed in her eyes, and a huge black tidal wave surged behind her, which was the emergence of the giant river sword intention.
Only then did Li Danqing realize that they had unknowingly grown to an extremely powerful level and were not standing still.
But such surprise had just arisen in his heart, and the next moment, there was another strange movement in the prince's house.
There is a phantom of a tiger appearing, looking up to the sky and roaring; there is a blue bird standing on the dragon, flapping its wings and singing.
There is the sudden sound of the piano, the sound is like a golden sword, and the sound is endless; there is the sound of a gun, like a dragon, and the whole world is shaken; there is the sound of swords, and the wind is like a torch...
There were all kinds of strange phenomena in the prince's mansion, and everyone in the mansion was using this to tell Li Danqing about their decision.
Li Danqing was stunned for a long time, and then finally felt relieved.
At that time, I looked at the strange phenomena in the sky and suddenly smiled.
He knows that everyone knows his decision, so he also understands everyone's thoughts.
Life is like this, what else can I ask for?
That being the case, let's go together.
Be it life or death.
If I can walk with you all, this life will not be in vain.
