Long Live The Emperor! Chapter 51: The night of the imperial city with snow and wind is the time of murder (5958 characters-2…
The Nangong army retreated, and the rioting mob also scattered,
Many people have been arrested, but none of them can really ask questions.
So, Xia Xiaosu asked the guards to interrogate some of the captured mob, but he just pretended,
Let the dead man stare at the mob who ran away in secret, remember the people they met, remember their appearance,
Let the little foxes follow the powerful areas away from the riots.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. If he wants to stay out of the situation and control the overall situation, he must not get dirty.
If behind the scenes instigators let the mob riot beside their mansion, then this is very likely to be involved in right and wrong,
Of course others may do the opposite,
However, Xia Xiaosu "sniffed" the character of the backstage from the previous manipulations of the backstage.
And as soon as the latter shows up, the fox will seize the house,
During this time, the foxes read the dossier every day and endorse it every day. They don't want to memorize it anymore. If they take the house, they don't have to endorse it, then they are willing to take the house.
Xia Xiaosu is orderly arranging...
This is the game of power and intrigue, twists and turns, without a dark and delicate heart, I really can't play this job.
The returning princess only felt the indescribable tranquility, darkness, and intrigue, which didn't seem so scary.
She tousled her long hair and headed towards the city.
Feixue Qingwu didn't hold an umbrella, so the snow fell on her hair and eyebrows.
Her eyes showed a kind of tranquility similar to her brother's. Her brother had been chanting scriptures for nearly three years, and she had also listened to scriptures for nearly three years. She had been restrained for three years, and submissive for three years.
Three years, I once lowered my eyebrows in despair, once stood on tiptoe in death, so what are you afraid of?
She has asked herself this question many times, so she is not afraid. Life and death depend only on the speed at which she draws the dagger from her bosom and plunges it into her chest.
She raised her head and stepped onto the tower.
Hu Xian'er followed closely in a cloak.
Looking down the city from outside the wall,
It was the Shura Field where the snow fell and the blood mist was simmering,
Xia Ji's armor was stained with blood, dragging the black halberd of Zhangba diagonally, and is returning,
The army behind him has already withdrawn.
Xia Xiaosu took a deep breath, bit her lip, looked at her brother covered in blood, and asked the soldier beside him, "How is the victory or defeat of the Seventh Highness? Are there any injuries?"
The soldier didn't answer. He stared at the killing **** who returned from the city in a stunned manner. With such an unparalleled appearance, he almost suspected that he was in a dream.
So, he didn't notice the princess' question.
Xia Xiaosu didn't care, and asked another soldier, "How did His Highness win or lose? Are there any injuries?"
The soldier was also in a daze, Hu Xian'er snorted coldly: "The princess asked you something."
The soldier was startled, and then he reacted, turning around and kneeling on the ground, "Princess forgive me, the villain just looks at His Highness the Seventh."
"Look at what?"
"His Royal Highness cavalry is ten thousand, and the bergamot strikes twice. Each time, he bombards and kills more than a thousand people, going back and forth, like entering no man's land, it is really a battlefield killing god, but..."
"But what?"
"But when General Deng returned, he joined forces with General Nangong and asked His Highness to surrender the city."
Xia Xiaosu's expression changed. She tried her best to maintain calm, but anger flashed in her pupils.
The Deng family...
The elder brother asked him to go to the Northland Camp because he believed in him. He wanted to lead the only army guarding the imperial city, but he betrayed this trust!
She clenched her little fist hidden in the long sleeves of the black robe,
When I looked back, I saw Feng Xue Chenglong, and the figure walking in the blood river turning into a python was full of loneliness,
In her heart, there was a touch of distress, a touch of pride, and a touch of pride.
I feel sorry for my elder brother to go to war alone.
The proud brother triumphed alone.
The elder brother of pride is worth a thousand.
What if there are millions of people?
Brother, since one person and one halberd, pressing across the front of the city, it is as if both hands are covering the outside of the imperial city, and even a soldier or a soldier cannot break in.
This kind of courage is really shocking!
Phew~~
She exhaled.
pop~~
She clapped her hands on the icy city wall and said loudly:
"Open the city gate!!"
The voice is still a little childish, but it is very powerful.
With an order, the sound was transmitted layer by layer, and the east gate slowly opened to the triumphant prince.
...
...
Xia Ji took off his armor,
I went to Yunxiao Palace,
When 10,000 sandalwood incense sticks were lit, the nine dragons spit water, and the gurgling water stream and the cloud of smoke covered his strong body.
He didn't ask about the mob in the city.
Because Xia Xiaosu said he didn't need to worry about the city, then he didn't worry.
He grabbed the rosary bead on one side and moved it slowly. There were four hundred and eight rosary beads. Today, it was used twice but it was much dimmed. Especially the second time, the rosary almost changed from "slightly dim" to "" The brilliance is lost."
After thinking for a while, he raised his hand and made a handprint.
Slap...
He took off a rosary bead, and then used the Tathagata's meditation, and tentatively "infused" the spirit into the bead.
This rosary is self-made, and there is no reason why it cannot be restored to its luster.
With the point of the fingertips, the golden pulp under the rosary suddenly appeared, lingering around the dry sunken wooden surface, like a fallen dragon suddenly coming to life, reappearing the appearance of "swastika" in the wandering and circling fingertips .
When it was just right, Xia Ji raised his finger.
Just as he was about to put the rosary back, a slight "click" sound came into his ears unexpectedly.
He looked sideways,
I saw that the "swastika" arm wheel was no longer smooth, showing subtle cracks, the cracks were getting bigger and bigger, and the gold paste was infiltrating,
After more than ten seconds, the rosary made an unbearable moan.
Clap!
The rosary shattered from within,
It split into several petals and fell on the warm water surface of Yunxiao Pool, and flowed forward along the impact of the Nine Dragons "dragon saliva", until it hit the end of the water flow and stopped.
Failed.
He didn't care, put the rosary aside, put his hands on the pillow, let go of his thoughts, and leaned back,
Every inch of his skin was washed by warm currents, which contained precious spices to soothe the nerves, which could restore one's spirit and physical strength as quickly as possible.
Xia Ji took a break for a stick of incense, then reached out to take the leather roll contract, pointed at the contract, and a line of information was passed in:
Come and see me, I'm in the Cloud Palace.
Hu Xian'er, who was accompanying the princess, immediately received the message. At this time, the army on the opposite side had set up camp, and there were no riots in the city. It was a calm between the storms. Entering the deep palace with the princess' warrant.
Pushing open the door, the door is filled with fragrant mist. A man is bathing in warm water in the misty mist, and the sound of "ton ton ton ton" Kowloon spitting water can be heard.
Hu Xian'er winked, the black smoke exploded, and instantly changed from winter clothes to summer clothes. The red silk clothes were wrapped around the delicate body, the short skirt was unpredictably short, and the lotus-like calves stepped on the jade ground of Yunxiao Palace. , with a look of refusal, she teased pitifully: "Master, please... Please be gentle with Xian'er."
Xia Ji ignored her yellow accent and said directly: "Tell me about the narrator."
Hu Xian'er: "Master, I...I want to talk to the pool."
"Get down with your clothes on."
"The clothes will get wet..."
"It's all your fur, does it matter?"
"Oh..."
Hu Xian'er stepped into the Yunxiao Palace hot spring, she let out a sigh comfortably, this world emperor will enjoy it, but there are many precious herbs hidden in the tranquil spice of this pool water, which can make the skin taut Soothe in an instant, let the tense mood relax in an instant.
Hu Xian'er followed the smell and saw that the dragon head on the far left of the nine dragons was slightly twisted, and this tranquilizing spice came from it. She swept the other eight and said curiously: "Master , are there eight spices? Each has a different effect?"
She paddled away, then rose into the air, crouching on the nine dragons, trying to turn the other faucets.
"Don't twist."
"Oh..." Hu Xian'er said in her mouth, but she twisted her hand in a very dishonest way. She is a fox, and foxes are notorious for being quirky. She not only has slippery feet, but also slippery hands.
But before she could twist it, a few drops of water bounced off the surface of the water, hitting her palm hard.
Hu Xian'er only felt a pain in the back of her hand, as if she was electrocuted, she couldn't help but say "Ouch!" She knew this was a warning, so she hurriedly withdrew her hand, feeling a little aggrieved.
Xia Ji said: "The royal family is extravagant, so the spices hidden in the other eight faucets are not good things."
Hu Xian'er's eyes glowed when she heard it...
"Master, what is that bad thing?"
Seeing her like that, Xia Ji didn't plan to discuss with a fox spirit in depth, but said lightly, "Tell me about the narrator."
Hu Xian'er sat in the pool obediently and poured out the information she knew: "The magic weapon, most of the powerful ones come from ancient ruins.
The magic weapon contains spiritual power. When these powers are exhausted, the magic weapon will become a mortal thing.
But different spiritual powers also require different carriers, such as rosary beads, bottles, bells, flags, and even flowers and feathers...
The use of the magic weapon cannot be continuous. After each use, it needs to be quiet and warm for some time before it can be used again.
And since the master is the maker of the rosary, the warm-up time will be faster,
And the better the material of the magic weapon, the shorter the warm-up time,
But no matter how warm it is, the material will be corroded,
For those who are not the makers of the magic weapon, the efficiency of warming is very low, and it is only delaying the "death time" of the magic weapon. "
The old fox has lived for hundreds of years, and naturally has a lot of knowledge. He still knows these things.
Xia Ji thought about it and probably understood that the reason why the rosary was dim was because he used it continuously.
The reason why the rosary is broken is because of the material of the agarwood, which cannot withstand such a rude secondary instillation.
And the carrier also knows that Tathagata Zen is suitable for rosary beads, lamp-burning meditation is suitable for lamps, and Maitreya meditation is suitable for cassocks.
Hu Xian'er understands a man's mind very well, just seeing the master meditating, she understands what he is thinking, so she continues to speak.
"The best material for making rosary beads, but there is no conclusion, but it is definitely not a common thing in the world. All these need coincidences. My fox tribe has hidden a good piece of wood, which is magma wood, and the wood will burn when it meets fire , but this wood and five elements are friendly to fire, can withstand high temperature, and belong to a very rare species. I will apply for it, and let the next batch of fairies bring it to His Highness. It's just..."
She bit her lip.
Xia Jidao: "What do you want?"
Hu Xian'er said coquettishly, "I want to unscrew the eight faucets and try it out."
Xia Ji:......
Hu Xian'er giggled and smiled. The master is still a young man after all. Although he has a Buddha-like spirit, he still has a youthful side.
She changed the conversation and reminded: "By the way, Master, I found the ghost queen the day before yesterday, but I found out by accident, you..."
"I know."
"Oh..."
...
...
The night of the imperial city is falling, and it is still snowing tonight.
In the early hours of the morning, there was a rustling sound on the street. The sound converged into a huge wave and rushed directly to the city gate. Xia Ji did not fall asleep, he listened to the noisy sound in the distance.
"Open the city gate, welcome the teacher of justice!"
"Open the gates!"
"Do you also want to accompany the brutal prince to rebel together?"
"The rebellion is to punish the Nine Clan. His Highness the Seventh is selfish. He is the royal family, but we have relatives."
"Lord, open the city gate."
The voice has been "rehearsed", and every sentence has a strong delusional meaning, and the guards who are not very firm at the city head are even more confused at this time.
Xia Xiaosu stood in front of the city gate and said, "Don't be incited by others, please believe me?"
The crowd took a break when they saw this princess, because this princess was the only royal dignitary who set up a porridge shop, built a shack, distributed quilts, and relieved refugees. No matter what, the nine princesses Standing here, stopping them and asking them to believe her, then these people are still willing to stop talking.
Then someone asked: "Excuse me, the ninth princess, what is the seventh prince's intention?"
"Your Highness is brave, but if you don't open the city gate, it will hurt us."
If it was before, Xia Xiaosu would only think that what these people said was right. Why did she and her brother want to change their fate, but now she doesn't think so, she has something to do There is something that my brother has to do, so he has to do it.
So, she just said, "Trust me..."
However, the mob hiding among the common people did exist after all. There was a slight sound of blowing arrows in the din, and a dim light shot rapidly towards Xia Xiaosu from the crowd.
Before the princess could make a move, a fox palace maid beside her had already raised her hand and swept away the cold light.
The mob roared immediately.
"Hypocrisy!"
"Just a few bowls of porridge, can we buy the lives of our whole family?"
"Why trust her?"
"Nine princesses are such a good idea!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, do you really think we are fools? Let's leave her alone and rush over together!"
The voices come and go, but if you look closely, it's hard to tell them apart. These people are very good at hiding in the crowd, but when they finish a sentence, they will turn back and change their position.
Xia Ji sat in the dark, and sounds from a distance could naturally enter his ears, but he just sighed lightly and continued to recharge his energy, while at the same time nourishing the rosary with no more or no less spiritual power.
Before the war, his sister had approached him and told him earnestly that "the male lead is outside, the female lead is inside, and he doesn't need to take care of the city's affairs", so he doesn't care.
In front of the east gate, the wind and snow were endless, and the princess' face was immersed in darkness. She heard the voices of the mob in her ears, but her expression was calm, and then when these voices were on the verge of the peak, she suddenly clapped her hands.
She clapped her hands softly,
But oddly enough,
Every time she took a shot, the clamor in the crowd decreased by one point,
After three shots, the mob who attacked the South Gate has become much smaller,
By five more shots, the clamor had completely vanished.
The dead men in patched shirts mingled with the crowd, then stared at the mob they tracked during the day, and the Queen's clapping was the signal.
When the signal fell, they slashed the heads of the mob with daggers.
Then, the dead men also hid in the crowd and shouted.
"You ungrateful villain, without the mercy of the Queen, you would have starved to death on the streets long ago!"
"I'm more willing to trust the princess than a big cow!"
"No one is better than the Nine Princesses!"
"Think about it carefully, except for the princess, who really cares about us? The nine princesses are the benevolent female Bodhisattva!"
"On behalf of all the poor people in the west of the city, I am willing to support the Nine Princesses, whoever makes a fuss will be a troublesome lackey!"
"I saw these people sneaking to the rich and powerful's house to get the bounty. They are traitors!"
"Nonsense, we are all refugees..."
"Hey, I saw you eat the big fish and meat of the powerful family. If you really didn't eat it, then cut open your stomach to prove your innocence. If there is no fish in your stomach, you didn't eat it!" /
"..."
"Kill him, he is a traitor!"
"I didn't eat... I really didn't eat! Ahhhhhh!!"
"Hehe, I really thought that life would get better when the soldiers from outside entered the city? I asked them to send 1,000 cartloads of food in advance, and once it was delivered, I might admit that life would really be better." /
The sound is one-sided.
The clamor was filled with a strange delusional wind.
Xia Ji, who was listening in the distance, couldn't hold back and laughed directly.
He remembered what Xia Xiaosu was writing at his desk a few days ago. He went over to read it, but she still blocked it with her hand, blushing so that she wouldn't read it...
That's about it.
My sister actually bit the tip of her pen and carefully studied the "speaking skills" of those who coaxed the mob. Now it's intensified, and it's all gone?
This girl has eighteen changes, and it is said that she woke up overnight.
Those behind the scenes heard these words arranged by Xiao Su and wondered if they would vomit blood.
There are now three piles of people in the crowd.
People who do not know the truth and are easily deceived.
The dead men pretended to be the common people.
A mob arranged by the powerful.
The dead men shouted the lines that the princess told them to memorize in advance, while looking for those "mobs", whoever said something went straight up and stabbed them.
Those "mobs" also wanted to resist, but at most they knew how to handle crops. How could these dead men who are full-time murderers be able to compare, so gradually, these mobs lost their voices.
They couldn't believe their ears when they heard the familiar words.
But it's not over yet...
During this period of time, the nine princesses have been enduring, just checking the mob, pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, and the dead men have long tracked and found the mobs, even if they don't speak, the dead men can find them. them, and killed them.
There was a strange atmosphere at the scene, and the refugees who hit the city gate were suddenly "influenced" by the princess who came forward.
Xia Xiaosu shouted: "Don't kill, you are all the people of the imperial capital, each of you is very important."
But...
The excited "people" no longer listened to her words, and frantically killed the mob who had already written down their faces, while other people were also infected by the princess and began to fall to the other side.
Looking at this scene, Xia Xiaosu recalled the scene when she set up a porridge shop a few days ago, but was scolded by these mob for throwing stones, she sighed softly.
Since ancient times, true feelings cannot be retained, only routines can win people's hearts.
Good and evil are only the end, but the process is victory or defeat.
The winner can decide whether to do good or evil.
Turning her eyes, she suddenly turned sideways into the darkness, and several fox court ladies followed her and left.
The current chaos, such a clear impact, is really not in line with the means of the person behind the scenes. If it was her, she would definitely attack the west, pretending to open the east gate to attract attention, but in fact she was going to open other gates to let the city The army from outside entered the city.
And this city gate, with reference to geography, is very well calculated, that is the South Gate.
Today is her time to prove herself.
She will no longer let her brother suffer alone.
Now the South Gate...
A man was holding a bamboo hat and dressed in black, like a ghost in the dark night moving quickly in the wind and snow, while running, the wind and snow did not stain his body, and he quickly came to the stone house where the Chengmenwei was.
Around the house, there are dead men arranged by Xia Xiaosu to guard ~IndoMTL.com~, but the man in black blended into the night, raising his hands, volleying in the air, the dead man did not make a sound, his head was on the ground. Five sharp fingerprints appeared, and the blood and brain were all frozen as soon as they flowed out.
After cleaning up the four dead men, the man in black came to the door of the stone house, knocked on the door with the agreed code, and said, "It's time."
The candle in the stone house went out immediately, and a dark shadow walked out of the door. The two climbed to the city wall, and then four more soldiers ran towards the city gate, preparing to quietly open the city gate.
However, they did not succeed.
Because in front of the city gate, the Nine Emperor Goddess was sitting in a wooden chair in front of the gate, with her hair in black robes, holding a closed white plum umbrella in her hand, and sitting on a wooden chair in front of the gate.
Seeing the soldier coming, the two palace maids at the front drew out their long knives and went up to them. The knife light splits the cold wind and flickers like white training. Between the twists and turns, the two palace maids have been rolled behind the armored soldier like a gust of wind, and before the four of them can see clearly, their heads all fall to the ground.
Soon.
On the city wall, the man in black suddenly frowned, and his complexion suddenly changed, turning into a cold whirlwind and rushing down the city, while the Ninth Emperor patted the handrail, and the four palace maids came out and left. Into the dark, greeted.
...
Now...
Outside the city, the sound of the east attacking the south was also heard. Outside the east gate, the army gathered and bluffed on the snowy night, but all the elites gathered at the south gate. As soon as the gate opened, they rushed into the city.
...
Farther away.
In the darkness of the snowy day, the silhouette of a huge human figure disappeared in a flash.
And these silhouettes are near.
...
Xia Ji ate three kilograms of beef and drank a pot of fine wine. He grabbed the Great Dark Sky Halberd and walked into the night of the Wind and Snow Imperial City.
