Since Emperor Xuan Sheng and Emperor Gaozu, the Taoist sect and the imperial court have been called one. Although Lingguan and the man in black belong to different systems, in the overall situation, they are partners, allies, and even Pao Ze. If Lingguan and the man in black are
When a conflict occurs, it is not just a matter of accomplices killing each other. There is no problem in describing it as a fight.
Soon, the spiritual officials took control of the entire Qiuhua Courtyard, including the guests, prostitutes, and turtle slaves, all of whom were under centralized supervision. The remaining spiritual officers relied on the courtyard to set up their positions.
These spiritual officers have also just been transferred to the Imperial Palace. Many of them are elite spiritual officers who have just come off the battlefield in the Western Regions and have rich combat experience.
The reason why Qi Xuansu was sure that the Shenshu Camp would send someone was not because of the reason he had just stated openly, but because he realized that since Li Ruoshui had made clever arrangements, to be sure, maybe when he led the team to leave the Jade Palace
, Li Ruoshui will send someone to inform Prince Langya that Qi Xuansu is going to attack Qiuhuayuan. Faced with the warning from the dignified leader, Prince Langya will definitely not remain indifferent, and will naturally rush over to support the occasion.
People blocked Qi Xuansu, and even if Qi Xuansu had no intention of embarrassing Prince Langya, he still had a hard time defending himself.
There are also three hundred spiritual officers specially arranged by Li Ruoshui. It is hard to say whether there may be someone with ulterior motives among them who "accidentally" misfired when facing the man in black, and then it became an irreversible fact.
This is me in you and you in me.
This sentence makes my ears tingle, but when I actually face this situation, I still find it difficult.
So Qi Xuansu also made arrangements for these three hundred spiritual officials. Among them, two hundred spiritual officials were left in place by him, a certain distance from Qiuhua Courtyard. Logically speaking, they would not be involved. If anyone dares to act without authorization, he will
After approaching Qiuhuayuan and causing serious consequences, Qi Xuansu was able to absolve himself of responsibility on the grounds of resisting orders and acting without authorization. Shi Bingyun and others would also use this matter to fight back.
There are another hundred spiritual officers left by Qi Xuansu in the court to guard the prostitutes, turtle slaves, and guests, and will not face the men in black directly. The remaining four hundred spiritual officers are all Shi Bingyun's men and can be trusted.
The key to why Qi Xuansu dared to do this was that there was someone behind him. Without the support of Master Donghua and Shi Bingyun, even if his subordinates acted without permission, Qi Xuansu would be blamed in the end.
To put it bluntly, there is a threshold for presenting facts and reasoning. Only when the situation is evenly matched, facts, principles, and laws are meaningful. If there is a huge disparity in strength, facts can be put aside. Reasons are nonsense, laws are waste paper, and fists
That's true.
Qin Hengde also understands this truth.
If Qi Xuansu had not memorized
Jing Guoshan, then even if there is a conflict, it will be the men in black who suppress the rebellion. Qi Xuansu is the one who intends to cause rebellion, and maybe he can be labeled as a secret society monster.
But Qi Xuansu has a strong background, so the nature is not decided by the men in black and the family. After the dispute, it will most likely be classified as a merger. The final result is likely to be a fifty-fifty fight. Of course, Qi Xuansu cannot escape the involvement.
, his status as the eldest son of the county prince will probably not be preserved, and he will probably be demoted to a commoner, or even imprisoned within a high wall.
This Qi Xuansu is really a mad dog. If he doesn’t want to do well himself, he won’t let others do the same!
Thinking of this, Qin Hengde became a little confused and said loudly: "Qi Xuansu, although you are a fourth-grade wine-offering Taoist priest, you may still be a figure in other places, but in the Imperial City, you are nothing. If
If you persist in your stubbornness and become enemies of the clan and the imperial court, then the mantis will use its arms as a chariot to crush you to death, just like crushing an ant to death."
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but feel a little funny, and he also saw that Qin Hengde was confused, otherwise he wouldn't have said such lines that were only spoken by third-rate characters in the script, but he still responded: "Since crushing me is as easy as crushing an ant
, then just crush him to death, why bother talking nonsense? Does the little prince still have the habit of talking to ants? That is really a childlike innocence."
Qi Xuansu has some Li family talent in terms of ridicule.
After Qin Hengde was bullied by Qi Xuansu, he became even more arrogant: "Don't forget that you still have family, parents, wife and children..."
Qi Xuansu sarcastically said: "Little Prince, have you said similar words smoothly and forgotten that I was born in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace? My parents, wife and children, and my master have been away for many years, and now they are asleep in the Requiem Division. Deputy Hall Master Zhang is in Yu
The palace is investigating the case. Are you going to dig graves in Kunlun Mountain? Or are you going to use Deputy Hall Master Zhang to hold me hostage? To be fair, Deputy Hall Master Zhang is much more valuable than me. If you want to touch her, you have to ask Jinque if he will agree."
What Qi Xuansu hasn't mentioned yet is that Qiniang, the fake immortal, Wu Guangbi and Siming Zhenjun couldn't do anything to her. That's not Qi Xuansu's weakness, that's Qi Xuansu's support.
At the same time, Qi Xuansu also secretly criticized himself. In the past, he always regarded himself as a wild Taoist priest and looked down on people from aristocratic families. How can he be better now? He often moved out of his patronage to speak out, and he became a child of aristocratic families in a certain sense.
However, the way the world is, it is difficult to move forward without a backer. At any rate, all the backers other than Qiniang are obtained by himself. If he does nothing, Master Donghua and Shi Bingyun will not let go and support him.
Qin Hengde's face turned green and red, feeling very embarrassed.
At this moment, the sound of heavy horse hooves coming from far and near came from outside the courtyard - the Imperial Guards of God that Qi Xuansu had expected had finally arrived, and there were quite a few of them.
The Admiral, the Commander-in-Chief of Military and Political Affairs in Beijing, is said to be able to gather 20,000 troops with one call. As his deputy, the Commander-in-Chief of Military and Political Affairs in Beijing, it is not difficult to mobilize several thousand troops.
As for mobilizing men in black within the Imperial City, it is actually nothing.
It’s not that His Majesty the Emperor trusts the King of Liao, but that His Majesty the Emperor is not afraid of these things. Among His Majesty’s many guards, the Divine Imperial Guards are only the outermost layer, followed by the Qingluan Guards, Tianchen Division and Xuanhui Academy.
There are many heavenly beings and even pseudo-immortals among them.
What’s more important is His Majesty the Emperor himself. The King of Liao and the King of Jin are both heavenly beings in the creation stage. So what level of cultivation should His Majesty, who has been in power for forty-two years and is as stable as a rock, be? Can he keep pace with the great masters of Taoism?
Are people as afraid of so-called mutinies as ordinary emperors? Therefore, as long as he does not enter the inner city, His Majesty the Emperor will not pay attention to the reckless actions of the two chief military officers of the Beijing Camp.
You must know that "Jiu Shi" originally means "Longevity and Long Sight". The current emperor uses these two characters as his reign name, which is of great significance. Over the years, more than one person has speculated that his Majesty the Emperor actually wants to seek immortality.
Or has he already attained immortality? The two sides debate endlessly, but there is a relatively unified point of view, that is, His Majesty the Emperor has at least the realm of pseudo-immortal cultivation.
Furthermore, the Imperial Guards of God already have the duty to patrol the city, but this time there are just a little more people patrolling the city.
Qi Xuansu grabbed Qin Hengde's sleeve.
Qin Hengde looked like a frightened cat, his fur flying and said: "What are you going to do!"
"Little Prince, follow me out to welcome guests." Qi Xuansu pulled Qin Hengde and strode out.
Qiuhuayuan occupies a large area, with multiple entrances and exits. The main building is adjacent to a bustling street, and the men in black cannot form a formation at all. Therefore, the main force of the Shenshu Imperial Army is gathered outside the south gate of Qiuhuayuan, which is dedicated to
When large cars come in and out, it's very empty outside.
Qi Xuansu also went to this portal.
"Open the door." Qi Xuansu came to the south gate and ordered the Lingguan to open the gate.
Two fifth-grade spiritual officers slowly opened the heavy door.
Outside the door, cavalrymen in black were galloping towards them. The darkness was like a dark cloud sweeping over them, and the dense hooves of horses beat fiercely on the ground, as if the earth was shaking. Even the small stones on the ground were jumping.
The moment the door opened, the cavalry happened to rush over. These well-trained cavalry quickly reined in their reins, stopped one after another, and formed a semicircle formation outside the door. There were many horses' legs, long guns raised high, and the sound of bolts being pulled came from the back row.
came.
At the same time,
Using the courtyard wall and gate tower as cover and occupying the commanding heights, the spiritual officers also aimed their long blunderbuss at the men in black.
The situation is about to break out.
Both sides know the basics, and if they really want to take action, no one is sure of victory.
A fellow disciple who was taught by his master cannot break the moves.
Qi Xuansu walked out of the door, still holding Qin Hengde's sleeves, asking him to stand next to him. Behind the two people were three rows of black spiritual officers. They avoided Qi Xuansu's position and raised their long guns forward from both sides. If there was a war,
, it is the classic three-stage blunderbuss array, ensuring that there will be no interruption in the firing of fire blunderbuss.
The distance between the two sides is too close, the cavalry cannot run or charge, and it is crowded. The gunmen can easily fall into a close combat situation. Each has its own disadvantages.
At this moment, the cavalry formed in a semicircle separated from the middle to both sides. A general in heavy black armor slowly stepped forward. He held the reins in one hand and a riding crop in the other, and kept walking slowly.
He stopped when he was less than ten feet away from Qi Xuansu.
In the end, Prince Langya did not come forward in person, but only sent one of his right-hand men.
"Shenshu Camp Guard Chief Gan Longchi." The person came from the registration number. Among military generals, the Guard Chief is second only to the General and Admiral Chief Officers who are only awarded in wartime, while the Chief Guard Officer of Jingying is
He is also different from the local chief military officer, who is nominally on the same level, but is actually half a level higher.
Qi Xuansu said briefly: "Qi Xuansu."
"I have heard about you and Zhao Fuan." Qian Longchi said slowly, "Such a young heavenly being is indeed rare. It's just that I am different from Zhao Fuan."
This sentence does not mean much self-satisfaction, it is just stating a fact, and it is indeed a fact.
Zhao Fu'an was only a heavenly being in the free and easy stage, while Qianlongchi, as a close minister of the emperor, was a heavenly being in the immeasurable stage.
This is the Imperial Capital, which is said to have more heavenly beings than Yujing.
What's more, the Xuanhei heavy armor on Qianlongchi's body is not an extraordinary thing, but a top-notch treasure called "Xuanshui Armament". It is a joint masterpiece of Tianji Hall and Shenji Camp. Although it weighs three thousand kilograms, it will make
His speed is somewhat slow, but combined with his immortal physique, he can face "Fengyan Jialiu" or "Dragon Eye Jiaqi" head-on.
Horses that can carry such a weight are naturally not ordinary things, but dragon blood mutants.
Qi Xuansu asked: "Does General Gan want to have a private fight with me?"
Qian Longchi said expressionlessly: "I am a warrior, not good at bickering, only good at fighting. This is the Imperial Capital, and it is not easy to fight in a battle formation, so you and I might as well imitate the generals in the storybook and challenge each other in front of the battle. You win.
If I win, I will leave immediately. If I win, you will leave immediately."
