Novoland: Eagle Flag Chapter 2: The Mighty King Seven

In the afternoon, there is Fengtang, in the mansion bestowed by Baili Jinghong to Xiyan.

Xi Yan wrote at the desk. Ji Ye walked into the study quietly, and stood at the bottom of the steps, Xi Yan didn't look at him, and kept writing in his hand.

There is only the rustling sound of writing. Ji Ye endured it for a while, couldn't help it, and quietly turned around to run away, but Xi Yan's voice came from behind him: "Going out to drink with Lu Guichen all day long, I have no patience!"

Jimo could only stand still, bowed his head and said nothing.

Xi Yan took out a stack of documents from the file and threw them on the table: "In addition to the trouble last night, here are the documents of the gatekeepers of the East City last month. Someone got together in a wine shop after drinking, and there were two men and a woman on one party. , one side consisted of sixteen rich men, eight of them were injured on the side with more people, and the side with fewer people was not only unscathed, but even knocked over a patrol captain when he fled. One was an officer from Xia Tang, the other was The sons of the barbarians are all young heroes!"

Ji Ye's heart sank, and he understood that there was probably nothing he and Lu Guichen had done that could escape the teacher's eyes.

"What a hero! What courage!" Xi Yan knocked on the table, showing no emotion, "You have been in the army for four years, but you didn't go to battle, but you know how to rob the rich and help the poor in the army. In the wine shop, swinging your fists in the streets and alleys, I recommended you to join the army five years ago, I didn't know that you still have the character of a street ranger!"

"Do you want to remove my military status?" Ji Ye pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time before whispering.

"If you want to get out of the army after losing your military status? Do you think it's that simple?"

Jime raised his head abruptly, and seeing the anger in Xi Yan's eyes, a sense of hopelessness suddenly came to his mind. The reason why he was able to join the army was all thanks to Xi Yan's support. At this time, Xi Yan was going to drive him out of the army. In the vast world, he was afraid that no one would sponsor him again. Ji Qian is doing everything possible to get a lieutenant-general position for his younger brother Chang Ye, and he is about to take up the post, but he has been in the army for four years, and he is still just a Qingying Guard of the Wudian, after all, he is just a **** serving Xiyan.

He is not afraid of anything, but at this moment he feels lonely in his heart. He knew that what happened last night was a big deal. Hong Luqing and Nanhuai famous prostitutes were ripped apart from their carriages in the street, and their naked bodies were exposed in full view. He also had rumors that in the morning Hong Luqing gave a memorial to hermitage, saying that she was seriously ill and could not enter the court. The ruler of the country was surprised and was assigning the Jinwu Guard to visit the sick.

However, he has never begged anyone in his life, even Xi Yan is no exception. He tried his best to raise his head to face Xi Yan, and that stubborn nature supported him. He knew that he would have nothing if he left the army, but he still refused to lower his head after all.

Xi Yan sneered: "After taking military pay for so many years, you just want to leave? If the army spends money to raise trash, who will guard the country? Rather than having to fight when you are idle, you might as well go out with me. Of course you are a Trash, dying on the battlefield is worse than being a hooligan in the city.”

"Going to war?" Ji Ye's eyes widened in confusion.

In the Tang Dynasty, the state was prospered by literature, and there were hardly any wars in ten or eight years. Those who have a slight rank in the army are all looking forward to it, hoping that the world will be in chaos tomorrow, so that they can seek fame, fame and fortune, and gain a wife and son. However, the number of places to lead troops is limited, and they often have to pay their own money to get through the joints. He drank and gambled, beat his comrades, and was lucky not to be kicked out of the barracks, but he couldn't imagine that such a good thing would happen to him.

"It's too late to say I'm afraid of death. The vanguard will take the order!" Xi Yan threw down a golden talisman and shouted, "Tomorrow morning, we will collect the army and horses of the Daliu camp, and we will leave the camp at noon two days later. If there is any delay, Military law is ruthless!"

"Shangyang Pass?" Ji Ye stumbled forward a few steps, catching the golden talisman that appointed him to command the Vanguard Battalion, still unable to believe what he heard.

Yesterday he was just a **** serving Xiyan, and his military rank was still below Lei Yunzhengke and others, but today the golden talisman was passed on, and he suddenly became the leader of the front battalion and commander The commander of the cavalry army of eight hundred Qingqi is still above the cavalry general.

Xi Yan waved his hand and unfolded the entire map of the four states and sixteen countries of East China on the table. Suohe Mountain traverses, and Leiyan Mountain runs longitudinally. If you extend along the direction of Leiyan Mountain, it will basically be a cross that divides the four states of East China. The imperial city of Apocalypse is a plain between the two mountains. , and the place where the two mountains meet is the Shangyang Pass known as the 'Second East Six'."

Ji Ye calmed down, and looked along Xi Yan's pen. Among the high mountains, a pass blocked the imperial city, facing the six hundred li plain.

"Shangyang Pass is the place Li Gong must pass through to return home?" Ji Ye knew about the war going on at Shangyang Pass, after all, he could read all the military newspapers received by Xi Yan.

"That's right. Unless there is a detour of more than 1,200 miles, Ying Wuyi only has this way to return to the country. And once he returns to the country, it's like letting a tiger into a mountain, or a dragon into a sea, and trying to trap him again," Xi Yan Shaking his head, "I'm afraid no one in East 6 can do it."

"It has been half a month since the confrontation at Shangyang Pass, why did our country send troops at this time?"

Xi Yan pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "There are many reasons. But one of them is that there is a person in Shangyang Pass, who we want in Tang Dynasty."

"Who?"

"Chu Weiguo, Princess Xiaozhou. In July, according to the agreement between our country and Chu Wei, our country donated 400,000 gold baht in military expenses, and Chu Weiguo sent Princess Xiaozhou to live in Nanhuai. The princess is the lord of Chuwei. My beloved daughter, with her in Nanhuai, the covenant between our two countries is like an iron stone. But suddenly, the vanguard robbed the convoy escorting the princess twenty miles away from Shangyang Pass. The envoys of Chu Weiguo had already After three rounds, the lord had no choice but to order soldiers. If we can’t get the princess back, the 400,000 gold baht already paid should be paid to Liguo.”

Himino frowned, puzzled.

"Alliance between the princes is nothing more than interests and in-laws. If the princess is sent to Jiuyuan, the capital of Liguo, to marry a son of the Ying family and have a few children, there is no guarantee that the two countries will not turn enemies into friends in the future. We This generous gift is considered a dowry." Xi Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Besides, there are actually many rumors about the identity of this little princess. You should know that Duke Chu is actually a woman. There is a possibility that Princess Xiaozhou is the illegitimate child of Emperor Xi. Daughter is the only bloodline of Emperor Xi."

"The emperor's daughter?" Ji Ye's eyes widened.

"It should be said that she is the daughter of the first emperor. During the seven hundred years since the founding of Dayin, Chu Weiguo has always been a close guard loyal to the royal family. Chu Wei is also a surname of Bai, and is a branch of the royal family. Emperor Qiangwei entrusted Chu Weiguo The location of the key gate at Shangyang Pass was carefully considered. At that time, there was the Ao family of Chun State in the north guarding Tangwu Pass to resist the northern barbarians. It was inevitable that Chu Wei State was the gate of the Wangyu outside Shangyang Pass. If this is the case, the Wangyu is as solid as gold .Originally, the Thunder Cavalry of the Red Brigade from Liguo was powerful, but it might not be easy to cross the land of Chu and Wei and advance to Shangyang Pass. But Ying Wuyi is an overlord and a genius. He never thought of attacking Shangyang Pass , he led the cavalry over the natural danger and directly attacked Tianqi City. Once the barrier of Leiyan Mountain was broken, the government and the public were shaken. At that time, Bai Buzhi, the Duke of Chu State, personally led the army to attack and led the allied forces of the princes to fight against Liguo on Suohe Mountain Baluyuan. The result was defeated. She died, and the only child behind her was a girl, her baby name was Shun'er, and her first name was probably Bai Shun. She is now the Duke of Chuwei, and no one dares to call her by her name."

"Then if the Duke of Chuwei is the emperor's wife, isn't it a close relative marriage?" Ji Ye asked.

"Bah!" Xi Yan scolded, "The separation of the family seven hundred years ago now has thirty generations of distant relatives, so what's the matter of inbreeding?"

Himeno didn't quite understand this, so he hummed honestly.

"Bai Buzhi's daughter was fifteen years old that year, and she happened to live in Tianqi City. And when she was sixteen years old, she returned to Chuwei State, got married in April, and Princess Xiaozhou was born in October. Is there anyone who gave birth to a child within six months of being newly married?" Xi Yan sneered.

"According to what the general said, it must be very rare to be born four months prematurely?"

Xi Yan froze for a moment, then raised his head to meet the student's serious black eyes. The teacher and the student were silent for a while, and Xi Yan patted him on the shoulder: "You bastard, if you were born four months prematurely, you would be dead. Where is that charming little princess? And the duchess lived in the palace at that time." Among them, is there any man in the palace who dares to touch Duke Chu's beloved daughter?"

Himino suddenly realized and nodded.

Xi Yan smiled: "The four-month problem is only understood by a **** like you. Since I can figure it out, others can figure it out too. Emperor Xi was not good-looking, he was not close to the harem, and he didn't have a single child." Stay. It is also said that he was worried that his children would be abused by Ying Wuyi and insisted on refusing to have children. This is cheaper for Ying Wuyi. Once Emperor Xi died, Ying Wuyi pushed Emperor Xi's cousin, Guangchang Wang Baihui logically. Enthronement, that is, the current emperor of Tianqi City. This matter should have been settled here, but some people in the imperial capital are not reconciled. The so-called Emperor Xi still has blood in the world, and these people must have deliberately released the news. "

"These people?" Himeno asked.

"In these years, I vaguely feel that there are still a group of people in the imperial capital. I can't see where they are, but I can see their methods." Xi Yan pondered, "Have you heard of the name 'Rose Party'? Is it?"

"No."

"That's right, if everyone knew about the existence of these people, they would have been slaughtered by Ying Wuyi one by one." Xi Yan smiled, "But someone in the imperial capital did indeed propose to take Princess Xiaozhou into the Taiqing Palace, intending to make a betrothal The princess gave a prince of the royal family, regardless of whether they are the "Rose Party" or not, but Chu Weiguo is clearly unwilling. The little princess who is only eight years old, of course, has no choice but to marry the princess, but it is so urgent to take the princess to the imperial capital. It is worth pondering carefully. Chu Weiguo has Bai Yi in power, and his wrist is strong. Bai Yi immediately wrote to the country's leader, saying that Princess Xiaozhou has a cold disease and needs to be maintained in a warm and humid place. He will send the princess to Nanhuai .This one is to please our country, and the other is to block the mouths of some people in the imperial capital. Who knows... Lei Qi came so fast!"

Ji Ye nodded: "I heard that the Liguo Red Brigade Thunder Cavalry is invincible in the east. Let's go to Tang...does the general think we have a chance?"

"When the red tide comes, there are corpses everywhere. Why don't I know? It's just that the current situation is such that we have to fight," Xi Yan tapped his fingers on the table lightly, and sighed, "Many things are inevitable in life. How many people are free?"

Jiye's heart was shocked, and he only felt that the teacher's words were deep and unpredictable.

"Why fight?" Xi Yan changed the subject and became stricter.

Jimo thought for a while, and said in a low voice, "I made a fortune and won their money."

"What else?"

Himino was silent for a long time: "They look down on me."

"Looking down on you, you want to fight with them? Win or lose? Satisfy your vanity of being competitive?" Xi Yan pressed on.

"I don't want to look at them that way, they really look down on me." Ji Ye turned his head away.

"Why do they think highly of you?" Xi Yan suddenly shouted, "Then why don't you just kill them?"

Jimo was taken aback for a moment, staring blankly at the teacher, speechless for a while.

Xi Yan regained his composure: "There are no people who are naturally aggressive and insist on taking risks with their lives. Who doesn't want to stay at home comfortably? It's just that you have a big heart but a poor life. There are some things that others won't give you. You don’t want it, so you have to bet your life to fight. But if you win one or two people, there are still a thousand or ten thousand people in the world who look down on you. Do you understand? Even if you are the emperor in Tianqi City , Li Guogong Ying Wuyi still looks down on him, Ying Wuyi has been in Tianqi City for seven years, and I am afraid that he is too lazy to kill the emperor!"

Himino thought for a while, then nodded vigorously.

"A samurai who has never been seen before or after, does not fight alone, but fights the world!"

Ji Ye suddenly raised his head, facing Xi Yan's sharp eyes. He shivered all over, and couldn't answer for a while.

Xi Yan patted the student on the shoulder: "You are my student, you must have my ambition. What you have to do is not to beat up a few worthless bastards, but to take off the troubled people like Ying Wuyi. Overlord level!"

Xi Yan waved his hand violently, repelled Ji Ye, and did not allow him to speak again.

Ji Ye walked to the door, and suddenly heard a faint voice from behind: "Actually, thirteen years ago, when Bai Yi and I saw that man for the first time in Akiba Mountain City, we wanted to kill him! In this troubled world, compared to killing the Mighty King Ying Wuyi, nothing is a feat!"
