Phoenix Shadow Coming From the Sky: Second, Yun Yuan Climbing Phoenix 4

Since then, it has been very peaceful both inside and outside. Day by day, the twelfth day of May has arrived in the blink of an eye.

It's Nan Pianyue's birthday today, but it's just a casual birth, so I declined the kindness of those colleagues who knew me well, I just set up a banquet in the mansion, and invited my brothers and sisters to eat and drink together, Dong Shixiu also changed into casual clothes quietly coming.

During the dinner, Bai Yima said: "Today is the day of great joy for King Mengcheng and Princess Beihai, and also the birthday of the eighth younger brother. It seems that today is an auspicious day."

After mentioning this topic, Nan Pianyue paused his glass and said, "Third brother is the only one missing today, so I guess he was having a good time drinking at the wedding banquet of King Mengcheng. I don't know if he still remembers that today is mine. Birthday. Hmph! When he comes back, I have to ask him for a generous gift."

"Perhaps the third brother will bring back a beautiful beauty as a birthday gift for you." Feng Duying joked.

"Then leave it to the third brother himself, as long as I have Xie Zhu as a beauty." Nan Pianyue said it very straightforwardly.

"Hahaha... I can't see that the eighth brother is still a seed of infatuation." Dong Shixiu laughed.

Nan Pianyue glanced at the elder brothers and said, "There are a few of us brothers, only the third brother is a bit flirtatious."

If others listen to his words, they will not dare to disagree harshly. Although Huangti, Baiyima, and Huajingtai all have only one wife, they also had one or two concubines around them before they got married. What's more, there are more than a dozen concubines in Dongshixiu, and the brothers can't be called single-minded and single-minded, but this word fell into the ears of several people present, and they all thought of some past events for a while.

Seeing that the brothers were all silent, Fengji raised his glass and said, "Then let's drink to the third brother, and see if he will bring us another third sister-in-law when he comes back from Mengcheng this trip." /

"Well, it makes sense." Bai Yima also raised his glass.

"No, third brother admires himself for being romantic, maybe he will bring back a third sister-in-law from Meng Chengguo." Hua Jingtai also readily agreed.

Feng Duying also raised his glass, but said: "I have never understood why those women like Third Brother like that."

"Most women like sweets, your third brother is eloquent, and can speak sweet words at his fingertips." Huang Ti's words always hit the nail on the head.

"Haha...the third elder brother's mansion will be lively again by then." Nan Pianyue smiled gloatingly.

"Do it!" Several people clinked glasses.

At that moment, Tranquility, who was thousands of miles away, was indeed at King Mengcheng's wedding banquet, but he was not as relaxed and happy as his brothers and sisters guessed.

Mengcheng's royal capital is very lively this day, the people are celebrating the king's great joy, and Mengcheng's palace is even more lively, with the smell of wine and laughter floating everywhere.

As the great joy day of the king of the powerful Mengcheng Kingdom, all countries sent envoys to celebrate it, and King Mengcheng wanted to show off in front of the envoys of all countries, so he re-decorated the palace. Everywhere is luxuriously decorated with pink gold and silver, and a hundred tables of banquets are set up in the largest palace of the palace to entertain the envoys of various countries.

At the wedding banquet, the envoys stood up to toast King Mengcheng one after another, and Tranquility was no exception. When it was his turn to toast King Mengcheng, King Mengcheng said: "Lord Ning, I heard that you The "Princess Phoenix Shadow" of the country has the appearance of a celestial being, and also possesses unparalleled martial arts. She is actually the most beautiful woman in the world, but she has never married so far. I heard that the reason is that the men in your country don't like such things. Women who are stronger than them in every way, I wonder if it is true?"

"Huh?" Tranquility put on a look of astonishment and bewilderment.

Sitting on the throne, King Mengcheng looked down at him condescendingly, and then said: "Lord Ning, since men in your country are so narrow-minded, why don't you marry your 'Princess Fengying' to me as Mengcheng?" How about the princess of the widow? We Mengcheng men admire these heroines the most, and if the princess comes to Mengcheng, she will be like a fish in water, better than being alone in your country."

At that moment, Feng Duying's beautiful plan flashed in Ning Jingyuan's mind. The good thing of saving worry and effort made him almost want to nod in agreement on the spot, but at the same moment, he felt a chill on his back, as if all six of his brothers were standing behind him and scratched him like snow knives. So he could only sigh with regret in his heart, but with a warm smile on his face, he stepped forward and politely said to Meng Chengwang: "This envoy, the seventh younger sister of the ancestors, thanked the king for his kindness."

"Oh?" Meng Chengwang squinted his eyes, "What? Master Ning is not happy?"

"No." Tranquility shook his head hurriedly, "If we can get married with the king, let alone our emissary, even our emperor is very happy. It's just..." He paused slightly, as if he was a little bit unspeakable.

"Just what?" King Mengcheng asked as expected.

"It's just that my seventh sister is too tough." Ning Jingyuan hesitated, as if she was too embarrassed to reveal her family ugliness.

Mengcheng King laughed loudly and said: "What's the matter, we Mengcheng women are not like the women in your country who pay attention to gentleness and chastity, what we Mengcheng men love is the fierce and wild woman."

"No...no." Ning Jingyuan shook his head again and again, looking at Meng Chengwang, he seemed to be speechless, timid, and his fair face was also flushed, which really fit Meng Cheng. In Wang Xin's heart, Dadong's pedantic and weak literati image.

"Master Ning, can't you just finish talking once you have something to say? This hesitation is really frustrating." King Mengcheng stared at Tranquility and walked away.

As soon as the Dadong envoy arrived in Mengcheng, he sent people to watch him, wanting to see what kind of people could become brothers with the Dadong emperor. As a result, as soon as the envoy Ning arrived in the capital, he brought expensive gifts and fawned on the relatives and nobles everywhere like a fly. The courtiers who made friends with him reported that this person was nothing but a pompous person, and he was fond of wine and **** After only five days since I came here, I have secretly gone to the Goulan to look for flowers and ask willows three times secretly to avoid people's eyes. Thinking about how the Emperor of Dadong regards such a person as a brother, and entrusts him with high-ranking officials. As soon as the agreed time comes, troops can be sent south to aspire to the Central Plains.

Ning Jingyuan frowned, and said with some distress: "Actually... my seventh sister once engaged in a marriage. Compatibility is also considered a good match from heaven. Who knows, my seventh sister did not know where to find out that although this man did not have a wife, he had a concubine in his room when he was young. This is a trivial matter, but I did not expect But my seventh sister rushed to the man's house, first scratched the face of the concubine, then gouged out his eyes, cut off his hands and broke his feet, stripped off his clothes, whipped him to parade in the street, beat him half to death, and put him in a sack She sank into the well and drowned alive. If she only said that she had only one husband, then her husband would only have her as a wife, otherwise it would be the same."

After saying these words, there was a silence in the hall, and Meng Chengwang only felt his face turn cold.

And if the seven people drinking in the Southern Pianyue Mansion in the imperial capital heard it, it is estimated that Feng Duying would give Tranquility a kick in the chest and kick him several miles away; Guan Lingxiao criticizes the January papers in the palace; Huangti will punch him directly to break his mouth; Fengji will smile gracefully, and within half a day, all the bad things in Ningfu will be sung by the emperor; Bai Yima Hui would frown and stare at him, and would not speak to him for at least half a month; Huajingtai would pry all the valuables in Ningfu; people.

In a word, if Ning Jingyuan said this in the imperial capital, it would definitely be very miserable. Who told him to spread rumors without incident.

But he said that in front of King Mengcheng, hundreds of officials of Mengcheng and envoys from various countries in Mengcheng Palace thousands of miles away. At that time, Tranquility looked at the reactions of everyone in the hall, and muttered in her heart without guilt: Seventh sister, you can sacrifice your little reputation to help third brother. Even in other countries, no one dares to ask Dadong "Princess Fengying" for marriage. This will save you the worry of marrying far away, and brothers should also thank me.

Indeed, at that moment in the palace, from King Mengcheng to hundreds of officials and envoys from all over the world, after hearing these words, the first thought came to mind: This princess is not only tough in personality, but also vicious in means. Don't marry into our country; the second thought popped up: the king and ministers of Dadong seem to be incompetent people, and such a shameful thing was said in front of the envoys of all countries, and this envoy Ning can be regarded as a pig head and pig brain , the Emperor Dadong who sent such an envoy is obviously stupid.

Then Ning Ningyuan put on a coquettish gesture when everyone in the palace was having a lot of thoughts, and said, "My lord, I heard that the eldest princess of Beihai Kingdom is extremely beautiful and unparalleled in the world. Your Majesty is the match between a hero and a beauty, it is a good story in this world."

After hearing this, King Mengcheng's face froze.

It turned out that he also heard about the beauty of the eldest princess of Beihai, so when Beihai said that he wanted to form an alliance, he named the eldest princess by name, but the king of Beihai only agreed to marry the second princess. Of course, he had seen the second princess secretly just now, and she was also one of a thousand beauties, but he was always itching to think what would happen to the famous eldest princess? You see, even people from Dadong are famous, I don't know how beautiful they are. Ever since, the more I think about it, the bigger the knot in my heart.

And Ning Jingyuan lowered his eyes to hide the smile in his eyes, and after toasting Meng Chengwang's wine, he inadvertently glanced at the opposite Wangdi Naertu, then raised his glass and walked over.

On that day, the mansion of General Nan, the capital of the Great East Emperor, was full of joy.

On that day, the palace of Meng Chengguo was full of festive and lively joy.

At night, when King Mengcheng embraced the beautiful new princess and entered the brocade tent together, in the Xiping Pavilion, where the envoys from various countries lived, the tranquility was far away from the precious carved wooden box that was one foot long. He took out an object and asked the guard beside him when he unfolded it: "Zhao Kong, do you think this object is old or not?"

"Old." Zhao Kong looked at the object that seemed to have been dusty for more than ten years.

Ning Jingyuan squinted his eyes and smiled, like a red-haired fox cuddling a chicken, "Then do you think this thing is real?"

"True." Zhao Kong rolled his eyes and looked at the roof. Thinking to myself, if it was done by you, Mr. Ning, it is natural that it can be fake, it can be true, and it can be fake.

Ning Jingyuan nodded in satisfaction, and put the thing back into the box: "Did you bring it?"

"Bring it." Zhao Kong replied again.

So, at midnight that night, a figure sneakily knocked on the side door of Naertu Mansion.

******

Yuan Ding three years on May 24th.

Beihai dispatched troops to the south, marching in three directions, approaching the border of Dadong.

On the twenty-fifth, an urgent report spread from the border town to the imperial capital,

In the imperial capital, everything is ready, just waiting for Dong Shixiu, who reported this report, to raise his sword and call the courtiers Jingchen Palace to discuss matters.

Facing the invasion of Beihai, the ministers naturally divided into two factions, the main peace and the main war.

One of the advocates thought that the country had not been established for a long time and the national strength was still weak, so it was not suitable to raise troops; second, they believed that Meng Cheng and Beihai had only recently married, and Beihai sent troops to invade the country shortly after King Mengcheng was happy. If Mengcheng fails, Mengcheng must have reached a secret agreement with Beihai. If our dynasty goes to war with Beihai, it will definitely take the opportunity to attack our dynasty. Therefore, Mo Ruo gave up some money in order to seek a truce.

The ones who advocate the war think that if there is no war to seek peace, there will be no face for the Celestial Dynasty, and if there is one, there will be two. It's the wolf's ambition that is hateful and infuriating. Naturally, we should suppress him with heavy troops and beat him to death, so as to show our divine power and make him dare not commit another crime.

The two factions held their own opinions, and Dong Shixiu did not express his position, so there was no conclusion on that day.

On the 28th, another urgent report came to the imperial capital: civil strife broke out in Mengcheng, and the king's brother Naertu raised his troops to rebel.

As for the reason why Naertu raised his troops, it was very simple: Brother Wang took the throne that should have been his, and he had the edict of the previous king as proof that the throne was supposed to be passed on to him.

There were seven sons of King Mengcheng in the previous generation, but two died in infancy, and three died inexplicably when they became adults. In the end, only King Mengcheng and Naertu remained. King Mengcheng of this generation is the eldest son, born to his concubine, and Naertu is the third son, born to the queen. Back then, the two had competed with each other for the throne for a long time. The first king Mengcheng was in a dilemma between the two sons, and he didn't know the exact number when he finally died. As a result, as soon as King Mengcheng of the first generation closed his eyes, the eldest son gathered the support of many veteran officials in the country, and took the initiative to lead 10,000 elite soldiers to surround the palace, so he ascended the throne very smoothly. Now, Naertu suddenly got a will from an old courtier of the former king, so he naturally wants to take back what originally belonged to him.

According to the secret agreement between King Mengcheng and the King of Beihai, May 30th is the day when Mengcheng sent troops to the south, but at this moment, King Mengcheng can only concentrate on quelling the domestic rebellion, and how can he spare his hands and feet to send troops to Dadong.

At that time, Ning Jingyuan and his party were already on their way back to the country, and they were still two days away from the imperial capital.

On the twenty-ninth day, Dong Shixiu summoned the Lord and sent his ministers Jingchen Hall to discuss matters. When all the officials arrived, he pushed Fengji in, clapped his hands, and went to Lingxiao in a very chic manner temple.

One hour later, Fengji opened the door first, and the officials behind him hugged each other with respect on their faces.

In this world, there is a kind of power called "beauty", and this "beauty" is even more powerful when it has an unparalleled talent, and when this "beauty" also has justice and integrity Wear everything you want.

During the Yuanding period, there was a saying that was widely circulated: No one in this world can go against the wishes of "the number one person in the Great East" Toyotoyo Dazai.

The title of "No. 1 Man in the Great East" is not given to the emperor Dong Shixiu who stands at the highest position in the Great East, nor is it given to the "Blood Flame General" Huang Ti who is unparalleled in martial arts. Fengji is known as a beautiful boy.

On May 30th, Dongshixiu issued an edict, and the royal driver personally marched to Beihai, and "General Fengying" Feng Duying accompanied him. During his absence, Dazai Fengji was in charge of the government, and Tailu Huangti assisted him.

At the end of the day, Ning Ningyuan and his party returned to the imperial capital.

In the evening, his elder brother and younger sister greeted him at the "Liu Xie Winery".

During the dinner, Hua Jingtai asked him: "Third brother, you are responsible for the civil strife?"

Ning Jingyuan said in a dignified manner: "How can I be so capable as a mere scholar? Naturally, only King Naertu, who has tens of thousands of elite troops, can take on this important task."

Bai Yima poured wine for him: "Third brother, you are really powerful. You relieved us from our worries."

"Where is it?" Ning Jingyuan put on a modest look, "I'm just helping the flames."

The brothers all had goose bumps when they heard his words.

Just fueling the flames? I don't know how many insidious tricks are hidden in this "fueling the flames".

When Nan Pianyue saw his brother's hypocritical appearance, his hair stood on end: "Third brother, fortunately, you are not my enemy."

"No." Even Feng Duying felt emotional, "If one day we confront each other, then I would rather go to war with the second brother who is the best in martial arts than the third brother you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ning Jingyuan stroked his sister's long hair with his left hand, and patted his younger brother's forehead with his right hand, with a loving look on his face, "You are my younger brother and sister, I love you It's too late, how can I be willing to be your enemy. If there is a day, the third brother would rather kill himself first than let you embarrass him."

After hearing his words, Feng Duying squinted at him suspiciously, while Nan Pianyue grabbed his hand and said with a joyful and shy expression, "Third brother is so kind, we will do it again in the next life." Brother."

"Speaking of..." Fengji looked at Ningyuan with a charming smile, "Actually, we can also learn from the Beihai princess who married a princess in the past, and then not only will the current worries be solved, but it will not cost a single soldier. If you want to, you will take Mengcheng into your palm."

"Yes." Ning Jingyuan nodded smoothly, "At that time, I really wanted to agree to Seventh Sister..." The words were cut off at this point, only because the sideways gaze was like a knife, which made him come to his senses. it's too late.

"Boom! Boom!"

Two fists, one left and one right, were sent at the same time, with vicious force.

Therefore, in the early morning of the second day, the officials met the Lord Ning Yuanning who had not seen for a long time and made great contributions to the dynasty recently. .

Lord Ning rubbed his eyes, and said with no regrets on his face: "Oh, Meng Cheng has a long way to go on this mission, and it is hard to sleep for some days under the worry. This is a trivial matter, thank you for your concern. "

Oh... All the ministers heard about it and looked at him respectfully: "Master Ning came here because he worried about the affairs of his family and country day and night. He is really a model of loyal ministers and ministers of the country!"

"Where there is." Ning Jingyuan sincerely and humbly thanked the ministers.

Nan Pianyue, who was watching from a distance, felt her teeth sour, and said to Hua Jingtai beside her, "The third brother is really scary, even more terrifying than the eldest and second brothers, and completely comparable to the seventh sister and fourth brother."

Hua Jingtai rubbed his chin and said, "Well, the fourth brother's horror is concealed by his beauty, and the world doesn't know it, but the seventh sister's horror will soon be known to the people of Beihai."
