Phoenix Shadow Coming From the Sky: Eight, My heart is a lesson 6

After the emperor retreated, all the officials in the Golden Palace filed out. Some hurried out of the palace not wanting to get involved, some shook their heads and sighed, some accompanied the three of them and whispered about today's court meeting, and some were high-spirited and surrounded by crowds.

The seven generals stayed at the end, and did not step out from the Golden Palace until all the courtiers left, and then went to the Lingxiao Palace together.

As soon as Nan Pianyue stepped into the Lingxiao Hall, she said angrily: "Seventh Sister came here in the rain of swords and arrows to conquer the North Sea. She almost lost her life. Tell them, but she made a mistake and harmed others. There is such a thing in the world. Is it unreasonable?!"

The rest of the brothers sat down in the chairs they were accustomed to sitting in, and did not answer.

"Seventh Sister pursued the King of the North Sea regardless of safety and danger, in order to eliminate future troubles forever, but why did these people say 'brave and brave'! What did you say that Seventh Sister "only cared about her own merits and did not care about her subordinates" , Are these people blind? How does Seventh Sister treat her subordinates? Just look at the admiration that the soldiers have for Seventh Sister! They have never fought with Seventh Sister, so why are they judging right and wrong there! Seventh Sister Didn’t manage to do it? Could it be that they were the villains who took down the world? Then they went to lead soldiers for a few days. I want to see what they can do with mouths but no brains! The most shameful What's more, these people still talk about Seventh Sister being a woman! What's wrong with "reversing yin and yang, causing chaos in the world", I am! It's because they are still men! It's because they can speak out! You are not as good as a woman who dare not admit it, but still slanders her. It's shameless to say that women are disasters! Men who say such things have completely embarrassed us men! Damn! Absolutely hateful! It's obviously not the case, why are they saying the opposite! These villains! These turtle bastards! I want to kick them to death! Kick them to death!"

In the whole hall, Nan Pianyue could only be heard yelling and cursing furiously. He rushed around the hall like a cat with its hair blown, kicking up the tables and chairs that blocked the way. The sound of banging tables and chairs was incessant.

The other seven people sat silently, looking at one place with serious expressions.

Although they have all heard and witnessed the envy of the courtiers towards the seven of them, but today's early court made the eight people see clearly how deep the courtiers' hatred for them is, and when these people gather to oppose them How much power was there at that time. Sometimes you don't need a sword, you can kill with your tongue, and you don't need to make mistakes. As long as there is a need, they can arrange and fabricate you to kill you so that you can never be restored.

Obviously knowing that the fact is not like that, but when these people explain it in reverse, you are almost speechless to refute. This is the political situation of the court, and it will never be possible to distinguish between black and white. And in the face of the disputes of the ministers, sometimes even the supreme being in the world can't do anything.

Nan Pianyue got tired of cursing and stopped talking. She sat on the ground with her hands on her chin and looked up at the top of the temple. What.

After a long time, it was Feng Duying who spoke first, "Fourth brother, tell me about the bandit who is king on Mount Jiuluo."

Her words brought back the thoughts of everyone in the palace, then Fengji stood up, took out a book on the case, and handed it to her together with the copy in his sleeve. "Since the establishment of the dynasty, the country's land has been re-measured and the household registers in various cities and villages have been re-measured. Although most of the first two years have been completed, there are still some remote areas that have been delayed. This city is located in the south. Recently, I received the first book from Jiecheng Prefecture Yin, saying that the matter of registering land and registering households encountered obstacles in Mount Jiuluo."

When the brothers heard the words, they all got up and gathered in a cage.

"Jiuluo Mountain has a radius of hundreds of miles. Mountains like this are treasure lands. Some of them hide mines, and the mountains are full of birds and beasts, and there are many rare herbs. Therefore, the governor of Jiecheng Prefecture sent government officials to investigate. To see whether there is cultivated land on the mountain or below, and how many medicine households, hunters, and farmers there are, but they don’t want these people to enter the mountain and never come out again. The governor of Jiecheng only thought that they had lost their way in the mountain, so he sent government officials there, the same If there was no return, the Fu Yin became nervous, thinking that there were bandits in the mountain, so he sent fifty government officials with knives to look for them, but the fifty people did not come back, and the guards at the foot of the mountain reported that they had heard There were screams in the mountains. The Governor of Jiecheng hurriedly sent a memorial to the imperial capital, and I instructed the deputy leader of Jiecheng Capital to suppress the bandits. But last night, I received another memorial from the Governor of Jiecheng, and the deputy leader of Daodu led five hundred soldiers They went up the mountain to suppress the bandits, but as a result, five hundred people never returned, and now the people in Jiecheng are terrified, and they all say that there is a man-eating monster living in Jiuluo Mountain.”

After Fengji finished speaking, Feng Duying pondered for a moment, and said, "It's so easy to take the lives of five hundred soldiers. The bandits in Jiuluo Mountain are quite capable." , scratched a series of dense fine marks on the wooden case, and then looked up at Ning Jingyuan, "Third brother, what news do you have for Jiu Luoshan?"

Ning Ningyuan spread her hands, and shook her head regretfully, "This Jiuluo Mountain is too remote, and there has never been an incident, so I have never paid attention to it, so I can't provide any news."

"Hundreds of people disappeared without a trace. Could it be that there are monsters living on the mountain?" At this moment, Nan Pianyue had long forgotten the previous anger, but was aroused by the mysterious Mount Jiuluo.

"I don't know if there are any monsters, but there must be someone." Fengji took out another piece of white as snow linen from his sleeve, and there was a line of red characters like blood on the linen.

"What is this?" Nan Pianyue stretched her neck and asked.

"This was sent along with Jiecheng Fu Yin's memorabilia last night. The Fu Yin said it fell from Mount Jiuluo." Fengji spread the linen on the long table among the eight people.

A few people looked at the linen cloth, and saw that it read:

Death to those who violate the mountain!

——King Jiuluo

After reading the words on the linen cloth, Nan Pianyue covered her nose and snorted, "What a stinking tone!"

The rest of the people frowned, and then all looked towards Dong Shixiu.

A smile of anger or sarcasm floated on Dong Shixiu's face, "King Jiuluo? Such an arrogant tone! How dare you become king under my rule!"

Tranquility got up, took a one-meter-long and wide map hanging on the wall of the main hall, and spread it on the long table.

Several people got up and gathered around the long table to look at the map.

"After crossing Jiuluo Mountain, there is a tribe called 'Shanyou' who lives on fishing and hunting. This tribe is next to Biyahai." Ning Jingyuan pointed to the southernmost part of the map.

"Then Jiuluo Mountain must be flattened sooner or later." Dong Shixiu raised and pointed to Jiuluo Mountain, "After leveling Jiuluo, and then taking down Shanyou, in this way Dongfang can receive Wushe, Nandan, and Qi Sang, the west can enter Caifei and Yuanrong, and then our Great Eastern Dynasty faces Dongming in the east, Biya in the south, and the desert in the west, and we can already worry about the country without invincibility in three directions."

"Yes." Several people nodded.

"Wait for another five years, we will flatten the Mengcheng Kingdom, and let the Mengcheng Grassland become the horse farm of our Dadong Dynasty. At that time, the entire Central Plains will be only our Dadong country, and our ambitious hegemony can be said to be completed." Also!" Dong Shixiu opened his palm to cover the map, as if taking the whole land into his palm.

"Of course!"

Several brothers and sisters stretched out their palms to cover the map, so that the entire map was under the palms of eight of them.

And at that moment, in the Lingxiao Palace, how could the eight people full of pride and passion have imagined that they planned this grand plan, but they separated before they could complete it in time. An emperor known as "Mingrui" achieved this unprecedented great hegemony with a world-renowned general. Although it was another dynasty, that emperor was a descendant of one of them.

"Seventh sister, how many troops are you bringing with you this time?" Hua Jingtai asked. At the beginning of every mobilization, he, the chief farmer, would have to calculate the food and military pay.

"I won't bring troops this time." Feng Duying said, looking at Huang Ti, "There are 20,000 'Lei Dongqi' over there in Qingzhou. Those are the soldiers that the second brother led. I will order from there. Two thousand people are enough."

"Well, that's fine." Huang Ti nodded, "The current leader over there is Cheng Lu, and you know Seventh Sister."

"Then it's settled like this." Dong Shixiu looked up at Feng Duying, "It's just that Jiu Luoshan is a bit strange. Seventh sister, you have to be careful when you go, don't..." He wanted to say "Don't be like chasing the King of the North Sea." When the words came to his mouth, he remembered the scene in the early court, frowned with thick brows, and swallowed.

"I know." Feng Duying looked down at Mount Jiuluo on the map.

"Seventh sister, when are you leaving?" Hua Jingtai asked again.

Feng Duying thought for a while, "Just September 20th."

"That's two days later, I just came back and I have to leave again." Hua Jingtai sighed.

Feng Duying remained silent.

The hall was silent again for a while, thinking about the impeachment of the court officials and the parting two days later, the brothers felt a little uncomfortable.

Nan Pianyue saw the expressions of her brothers and sisters, rolled her eyes, and then said happily: "Then let's choose a day to see Seventh Sister as a farewell party?"

"Well." Dong Shixiu nodded, "You see which day is suitable, I will let the palace make preparations early."

"No, big brother, we won't be entering the palace for a few days." Ning Jingyuan stopped him, "Since the seventh sister entered the palace yesterday, she will stay in the palace as usual for the next two days, so big brother can stay with her." Discuss the situation in Qingzhou more. The six of us can choose another suitable place for Seventh Sister's farewell."

The few people naturally understood when they heard it, and they all agreed.

After the brothers left that day, Feng Duying returned to Fengying Palace.

As soon as she stepped into the palace gate, a bird flew over, chirped at her a few times, and then landed on her shoulder.

"It has been singing in front of your room since you entered the palace, so I brought it here." Du Kang stood in the courtyard with a birdcage in his hand, probably he caught the bird and brought it here.

Feng Duying raised his finger and scratched the blue bird's wings to show comfort, "I'm going to Qingzhou in two days, you go back and prepare."

Although Du Kang was a little strange, he didn't ask anything, just nodded, then looked at Feng Duying, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Gu Yunyuan is gone."

Feng Duying was taken aback when he heard the words, and looked at Du Kang, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"I didn't see you the night you went to chase the King of the North Sea. This is the only one left in his camp." Du Kang took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Feng Duying.

Feng Duying took it, and there were only eight characters on the paper:

The phoenix flies in the clouds, the sky is far away.

Looking at this line of words, she was in a daze, and heard Du Kang continue in her ear: "Although he left suddenly, it was obvious that he was well prepared. His Majesty then appointed a new Wencao, and it went smoothly. He took over all matters. He did not take anything with him. After returning to the imperial capital, his subordinates went to his mansion, that is, they rented a small courtyard, just one steward and two servants. The steward of the mansion seemed to have predicted such a day. After hearing the news, he was not surprised. He summoned the two servants and said that they had divided the property of the mansion equally according to the order of the adults, and then dispersed. Most of the courtiers in the imperial capital have heard about it, and most of them are commonplace. same."

Feng Duying listened, his brows were unconsciously raised, his heart was a little empty, and he was a little dazed, just stood there holding the piece of paper in a daze.

Looking at her expression, Du Kang didn't say anything, but went out of the palace and returned home to prepare for the trip in two days.

Feng Duying stood in front of the palace gate for a long time, until the blue bird crowed on her shoulder, and then she regained her senses. Looking sideways at the blue bird, his heart suddenly moved, thinking of Yi San at Dongming seaside, and the things he led her to do, and the words Gu Yunyuan said to her on the eve of the expedition suddenly rang in his ears.

What Gu Yunyuan said was what Yi San did. Are they the same person?

Thinking about it this way, my heart trembled, and after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be many clues.

She looked at the words on the paper. According to what she said, he was following her. With Gu Yunyuan's intelligence, it was impossible for him not to know that a scholar could not catch up with a warrior who could run day and night. If he has the ability to control birds to fly, then he can definitely catch up with and surpass their speed. In Dongming Sea, when her life was dying, it was Yi San who suddenly came to rescue her by riding a fish, so Gu Yunyuan's affection for her was naturally reasonable. And he appeared in Yi San's appearance because all the soldiers present knew him. If the court and the world knew that he had such supernatural powers that were close to gods, the world would definitely be shaken and horrified. And a strange supernatural person, except for those who witnessed it with their own eyes, most of them will be regarded as exaggerated legends when they hear about it.

If the two of them were one person... that would explain why what Gu Yunyuan said was done by Yi San; and what the emperor said to those rogues that day, "There are hands and feet... Yi San and Gu Yunyuan are indeed quite similar in height, shape, and voice...

Thinking of this, she suddenly shook her head and vetoed it, because their appearances were completely different. What's more, she has personally confirmed Yi San's face, it is definitely not a disguise. And Gu Yunyuan has been swaying in front of them for so many years, if he changed his appearance, even if she didn't see it, she would definitely not be able to hide it from the eyes of the third and fourth brothers.

Where did Gu Yunyuan go? Could it be that he didn't go after her, but used this as an excuse to leave the official career and officialdom that he had no interest in, and wandered alone? With his unrestrained personality, it is quite possible to do such a thing. As for his departure, it was obvious that he had been prepared for a long time, and the arrangement in the mansion made it clear that he could withdraw at any time. It's just... what on earth did he do in court? Not for wealth and power, not for the people of the world, is it just to experience the world of mortals? Or as he always said... for her? No matter how cheeky she was, she didn't think so, otherwise he wouldn't have left without saying goodbye. After thinking about it, he felt that this person's behavior was really incomprehensible.

Gu Yunyuan and Yi San are the same person? Is it two people? Or... brothers?

I thought about it over and over again, but I didn't come to a conclusion. I was dizzy thinking about it, and finally gave up with a long sigh.

No matter who they are, as long as they are not her enemies, let them go.

Thinking of this, she restrained her thoughts, sat down in the corridor in front of the court, and ordered a servant to fetch some raw meat back. The waiter was ordered to go in a hurry, and after a while, he came back with four or five pieces of raw meat wrapped in oiled paper. Feng Duying took it, took the blue bird back to the bedroom, and then spread the raw meat in front of the window, "Since the third brother said you would be a bird of prey, then you should be a carnivore."

The blue bird seemed to understand her words, it spread its wings and flew up to the window, chirping at the wind alone, then lowered its head to peck at the raw meat, within a short time, a piece of raw meat the size of a palm was eaten.

Feng Duying was leaning on the slanted couch in front of the window, watching the blue bird pecking at the raw meat, and said to it: "I was very angry this morning, and I only got 'mistakes' in exchange for months of hard work, but when I was caught off guard, I could only Bear with it, but I, Feng Duying, are not the ones to endure and back down."

The blue bird pecks at the meat.

"Sometimes I really feel that this court is more dangerous and unpredictable than the battlefield." She continued, "However, it is really annoying that the court cannot swing a sword like it does on the battlefield."

The blue bird continued to peck at the meat.

"Actually, it's very happy to live like Yi San, but I will never and can't be that kind of person in my life. So I won't kill him, let him live well, do some things I can't do, pass Some days I can't live."

"If you really grow into a raptor, then I will take you into battle to kill the enemy."

"Chacha..." The blue bird raised its head and cried twice.

"What? Are you afraid? Don't worry, I will protect you. I have actually protected many people. Of course, it can't be compared with the people I killed. But... what can I do?"

"I will go to hell, but I hope my brothers will not follow me."
