The Path Toward Heaven Chapter 74: The last meeting in the dynasty
A finger slowly moved across the **** crossbow arrow, and when passing through those runes, it would stop for a while.
Gu Pan retracted his finger and looked at the clouds and ships in the sky, with mixed emotions in his eyes.
He is now the deputy commander of the God Guards of Chaoge City. He sounds the same as his position at the time, but he has actually been promoted several levels, and he can be called a high position. But after all, he came from outside the Zhongzhou School, and now he is responsible for defending the Zhongzhou School Cloud Ship invasion, which is ridiculous.
It's just that there are too many people like him in the court and in the army, and the court can't remove them all because of fear of the Central State faction.
In the higher gate, Commander Qingtian, Zhang Yiai was also looking at the sky, and there was no extra emotion in his slightly squinted eyes.
He also came from Zhongzhou, but after the Suppression of the Demon Prison Incident, he had gradually moved away from Yunmeng Mountain and became the most loyal minister of the God Emperor.
More than ten huge cloud ships have brought a huge shadow to Chaoge City, and also cast a huge shadow in everyone's hearts.
Obviously, the Zhongzhou faction is trying to suppress people with power. No matter how strong the defense of Chaoge City is, it is impossible to withstand such a battle. What's more, there are too many people in the imperial court who are interested in Yunmeng Mountain. How many officials will turn around at the most critical moment?
Zhang Yiai was silent, ready to die in battle.
Different from other ministers and generals, he has no possibility of returning to Yunmeng Mountain.
But even if he died in battle, he would let Chaoge City stay for a while, until the gentlemen who stayed at Yimaozhai came out to preside over justice, until the Qingshan Sword Boat appeared in the southern sky, and until His Majesty the Emperor left safely. go.
The problem is that the Zhongzhou faction cannot hide from anyone at all, and they did not intend to hide it from the people of the world. The imperial court knew three days ago, why did Qingshan never come?
He retracted his gaze, looked at the city wall, and saw Gu Pan beside the **** crossbow. After a moment of silence, he confessed a few words to the deputy commander beside him.
For this situation, the Jing clan was well prepared for this situation. The Shenwei Army and Qingtiansi did not know how many drills they had conducted over the years. They did it once during the Suppression of the Demon Prison Incident. The chaos in Chaoge City was quickly relieved under the suppression of the heavy rider and the flying fly, and the residents began to evacuate to the outside of the city in an orderly manner.
Especially the deep house compound near the imperial city was soon empty.
With the help of Taichang Temple and Gu's guards, the Jing family successfully left Chaoge City and came to Zhaoyuan outside the city. Now the entire Chaotian Continent knew that Jing Jiu was either a sword demon of all things, or the reincarnation of a real Jingyang, and had nothing to do with the well house in Chaoge City, but no one dared to embarrass them.
Zhao Jue, with white hair and very good spirits, paid a junior salute to Grandpa Jing, and then walked to the pond with Jing Merchant, looking at the clouds and boats in the sky, with a worried expression on his face. Said: "It is estimated that Chaoge City will not be able to hold it. You have to rest for a while, and you have to continue going south."
Jing Shang's temples have also added a lot of white hair, and he is in good spirits. He was a little surprised at this and said, "Uncle, don't you want to leave?"
The Qingshan Sect is the foundation of the Jingzhao family, and the Jing family is going to Qingshan if they continue to the south.
"If Chaoge City falls into the hands of Zhongzhou faction, what is the point of retreating to Qingshan?"
A cruel look flashed in Zhao Jue's eyes and said: "I don't believe it, Qing Shan will watch them so arrogant!"
Jing Shang was silent for a while, and said: "Then I will send my father and them to Zhuozhou, and then come back and have a look with you."
……
……
Gu Pan finished his inspection of the **** crossbow on the city wall, walked down the narrow ladder on the side of the city wall for more than ten feet, turned right and entered a secret door.
There is a tunnel in the secret door leading to the city wall. There is a huge space in which various instruments are arranged. Runes are engraved on the wall. The lines drawn in cold silver are continuously input into Inside the city wall.
This large formation lasts more than ten miles, not to provide indestructible mana for the walls of Chaoge City, but to provide vitality to the gods on the walls.
If someone destroys here, the **** crossbow in Chaoge City cannot be fired several times, and it will turn into a pile of broken copper and iron. Logically speaking, even if Gu Pan is commanded by the Shenwei Army, because of the background of the Zhongzhou faction, he will not be allowed to enter here at this critical moment. It can only be said that the emperor really trusts him. Moreover, according to the rules of the court, no one can enter this place alone, and three qualified ministers must be gathered together to enter at the same time.
There were two other people walking with Gu Pan, one of them was Qingtianji's deputy commander, and the other was a minister of courtesy who held the small seal of the forbidden formation.
Standing on the high stone platform, looking at the forbidden formation below, his gaze gradually rises with the cold silver lines, as if he wants to see through the city wall and see the **** crossbows. He doesn't know what he is thinking.
Deputy Commander Qingtian took a look at him and didn't say anything.
The minister of the courtesy department's face was a little pale and looked a little nervous.
Suddenly, the forbidden formation has an induction. In the clear light, a small black spot can be clearly seen, which is coming from the south at an unimaginable speed.
From the point of view of the size, the black spot cannot be the Qingshan sword boat. Could it be Yuan Qijing or Fang Jingtian who came with a single sword? Or is it someone else?
Gu Pan raised his eyebrows slightly and raised his right hand to order the Shen Guards to strengthen their defenses.
The Deputy Commander of Qingtian Division glanced at him again inexplicably, and said, "It's the Supreme Elder of Shuiyue'an, don't be nervous."
Gu Pan's right hand retracted from the air and landed on the railing, his knuckles were slightly whitish.
……
……
Coming from the south is a small blue sedan chair.
The **** crossbow on the city wall was not fired, and the imperial city formation also opened a passage, allowing the small blue sedan chair to stop in front of the main hall of the imperial palace like fallen leaves.
Countless lines of sight looked from the temple, from under the palace wall, from behind the pillars.
The curtains of the small sedan chair moved slightly, and people were a little curious, thinking that the elder, who never saw people, would show his true face today?
Why did she come from? Because these cloud ships sent by Zhongzhou are still something else?
Nan Zheng walked out of the small sedan chair, his face was a little pale, and the silver bell on his wrist made a crisp sound.
People know that this is definitely not the Supreme Elder of Shuiyue'an, because her realm and age are very low, and she can't help but be even more surprised.
Nan Zheng came to the temple and knelt down and said: "Jing Xin was taken away by Tan Zhenren, and he should be coming to Chaoge City."
Listening to these words, the ministers and generals in the temple were in an uproar, looking towards the highest point.
The **** emperor quietly looked into the distance, his expression unchanged, as if it had already been counted.
The imperial city formation has been opened, and even the cloud ship sent by Zhongzhou is difficult to attack.
The ministers in the temple are still calm, but it is still impossible to be as calm as His Majesty the Emperor. Their gaze followed the gods to look into the distance, through the extremely wide square, through the invisible formation barrier, and landed on an extremely high flying eaves building outside the imperial city.
That tall building is Yingtian Gate in the south of the city.
In the clear and cloudless sky, the cloud ship of the Zhongzhou School is a cloud.
There is also a cloud on Yingtian Gate.
There is a vague figure in the cloud, and the white skirt occasionally floats out of the cloud, bringing out a few traces of silk. It is the real Bai person of the Zhongzhou school.
……
……
"Today's meeting is here. Aiqing, please come back."
The emperor retracted his gaze to look into the distance, looked at the people in the temple and said with a smile.
There are many factions in the Jing clan dynasty, and the high officials in the hall naturally have their own positions. Some support Prince Jing Yao, some still remember Prince Jing Xin, some come from Zhongzhou faction, and some are Yimaozhai. Reading for many years. But after listening to this sentence, no matter what the position, the officials felt a deep sadness.
This should be the last meeting of your Majesty.
Prime Minister Cen slowly walked out of the queue, then slowly knelt down, and gave a great gift to His Majesty the Emperor, with white hair like snow.
Immediately afterwards, the generals who were listed as the Lord of the Kingdom, the Minister of Korea, and the Shenwei Army went out in sequence and knelt down in front of the imperial chair. Regardless of the faction, it was true and sincere.
The emperor didn't seem to think of this scene, he was startled slightly, then laughed loudly, and said: "I have been detained in this palace for more than three hundred years, and now it seems that it is not a loss."
After saying this, he got up and left the imperial chair to come to the courtiers, first helped the old prime minister Cen, and then slowly helped the rest of the ministers.
When he lifted up the last deputy commander of the Northern Gods Guards who was still young, the military commander who was killing people in Northern Xinjiang had already burst into tears and was unable to stand firm.
Under the gaze of the courtiers, the emperor walked outside the hall, looked at the distance and asked, "Is this the beginning?"
His voice is like spring sunshine, warm but far-reaching, drifting in the grand imperial city, and then reaching the Yingtian Gate more than ten miles away.
Bai Zhenren stood on Yingtian Gate, and the clouds around him gradually dispersed, revealing an unspeakable face.
She said calmly: "Your Majesty, the Zhongzhou dispatch has always respected you, so nothing will start until you leave."
The emperor held his hand behind, the yellow robe fluttered and said with a smile: "After I leave, what can the Zhongzhou faction do?"
"Why does your Majesty be like this? We all know what will happen~ IndoMTL.com~ White Zhenren said: "Manchu dynasty civil and military, all major sects, from merchants to common people, who would accept a fox demon son to become the **** emperor of the human race? "
In the room on the side of the main hall, Concubine Hu Guifei and Prince Jing Yao were watching this conversation that was more than ten miles apart by the window. Hearing Zhenren Bai’s voice, Concubine Hu Guifei showed anger on her face, Jing Yao was very calm, holding his mother's hand with his backhand. Concubine Hu Gui looked slightly awkward, and then a deep sorrow came out of her eyes.
The ministers in the temple did not respond too much. Everyone knew what the Zhongzhou faction wanted. Officials with a Zhongzhou faction background remained silent. Those who held the opposite view could only remain silent.
Princess Bai went on to say: "We will not force your majesty to change the edict and abolish the prince. In short, we will not do anything. Please go back peacefully."
Listening to these words, there was a dead silence in the palace.
She talked about returning, she talked about the edict and the abandoned prince.
That means everything is explained.
