She Is Not a Witch Chapter 22: In front of Shenlong Palace
Luojing, Yuzhang Mountain.
In the sea of clouds far away from the world, a mountain peak is like a small island, vaguely in the clouds and mist, and the light of the morning sun is like a golden veil, slowly changing in the clouds and mist.
Land rings ringing, the quiet sound of silk and bamboo zither surrounds the palace, pavilion and building. I can't see the person, but I can hear the sound.
Zhulan Bixie, exquisite corridors connect the palaces on the mountain. Walking in it is like walking in the clouds, and you feel like you are in a fairyland.
There are rumors in the dynasty that His Majesty Chifeng lives on the misty Yuzhang Mountain, overlooking the magnificent city below, the mountains, rivers and land, the purple clouds rising in the east, and the sun coming out of the clouds.
It's just that in recent years, this place has become much quieter. Even the Huo Ling maids who used to serve Chi Feng's side, now there are only a few sporadic ones left, and the others don't know where to go.
Among the high mountains, a tall palace stands quietly in the shadow of the col. Along the mountain road and on both sides of the suspended plank road, there are guards in black and white armor. , are the most elite Shuolong imperial guards in the dynasty, each of them has strength above the sixth level, and they accompany the emperor all year round.
Now, this palace is in an extremely oppressive atmosphere. Several ministers knelt on the stone slabs in front of the palace and waited quietly. Killed by the guards in front of the palace gate.
On the mountain road below the palace, a general dressed in a mountain-patterned tiger's head was walking back and forth. Behind him, there were several ministers in dragon-patterned python suits.
"Gene Era"
"Master Si Ji, don't wait any longer."
Seeing the general in gold and bronze tiger armor striding back and forth dozens of times, a minister in purple finally stepped forward and said with cupped hands.
"Before your majesty climbed the mountain, your body was already very unwell. Today, it has been seven days since you sacrificed to the heavens in Shenlong Hall, and you are cut off from inside and outside, and you don't know whether you are alive or dead. Although Prince Zhaolong is by your side, he has not been granted a title, and your majesty also It has never been pointed out that it will inherit the great unification, if it ends without an edict, the world will be shocked."
Since the disasters and disasters in various states in the world have been spreading, and the pressure has spread to Luojing, in order to calm down the inquiries from the various sects and the doubts of the officials in the dynasty, today's son decided to climb a mountain to worship the sky and worship the red phoenix. To secure the world.
But in recent years, the emperor has been late, his mind and body are far worse than in his early years, and his personality has gradually become suspicious and repetitive. Even if the ministers are worried, they dare not dissuade him face to face.
The original worry and uneasiness finally caused many changes after the son of heaven climbed the mountain and did not return for seven days.
The two admonishers rushed straight to the Shenlong Hall, saying they wanted to meet the emperor, but they were beheaded by the Shuolong guards on the spot, and the gate of the Shenlong Hall was still closed, and no one could see what was going on inside.
Now, several important ministers who control the court are also gathered here. The general in front of them wearing the gold and bronze tiger armor is now Luo Jing's general according to the dragon. He has a hundred thousand according to the dragon golden armor army , stationed in the big camp in the south of Luojing.
There are many forces guarding Luojing, except for the 100,000 Dragon Golden Armor Army in the southern camp, there are also the 2,000 Shuolong Guards who often accompany the emperor, and the 10,000 Scarlet Sparrow Dragons on the Dragon Cliff in the North Mountain of Luojing The 50,000 red-scaled halberd guards used to maintain law and order in the city and the ceremonial guards, the 20,000 Jin Fangwu guarding the palace, and the various branches and workshops under the officials of the four seasons also have their own armed forces.
"Master Si Ji, don't hesitate any longer." Seeing that the general still hadn't left, another minister stepped forward.
"This morning, the Red Scaled Halberd Guards began to seal the city, and all the twelve city gates of Luojing were closed. Today's Red Scaled General is from the Zhao family, that is, the mother clan of Prince Zhaolong. Luo Jing, support Prince Zhaolong to ascend the throne, and the world will be in chaos."
Compared to King Dai and King Huainan, who have been enshrined for many years, Prince Zhaolong has not yet won the throne. If he ascends the throne in a hurry, the forces of King Dai and King Huainan will immediately be violently suppressed, splitting the world today.
Different from Prince Zhaolong who has just grown up, King Dai and King Huainan have been crowned kings for more than ten years. The power inside and outside the dynasty has spread, and the foundation has been established. throne.
After listening to the minister's persuasion, the general finally stopped. He looked at Shenlong Palace in the distance and let out a long sigh.
"I don't know the current situation."
"If one of His Royal Highness Dai Wang and His Highness Huainan Wang were here, both of them could be dealt with properly, but neither of them is here."
Since the frequent occurrence of disasters in the world's dragon veins, today's son ordered Dai Wang and Huainan Wang to go to Tianxiazhou County to assist in disaster relief, so as to test the two.
Although they knew that this was a way for the emperor to let the two fight to secure their position, but they were in the middle of the game, and the two princes had to leave Luojing and go to all continents of the world.
"I have received little kindness from the emperor, and I am in charge of the Dragon Army today, but Your Majesty has said first, except for the Shuolong Imperial Guard, foreign troops are not allowed to climb the mountain and enter. Those who violate it are like falling stones, and they will be punished by the world."
Although he came to the Shenlong Palace today, the sergeants under his command were still confronting the Red Scaled Halberd Guards at the foot of the mountain and did not climb the mountain. This was the most he could do within his authority.
Shuolong's imperial guards only listen to the emperor's orders, even he can't make some black-clothed and white-armored guards get out of the way, if he wants to break through forcefully, knowing the situation in the Shenlong Hall, he must defeat these Shuolong guards guarding the mountain road and the palace Long Jinwei, but these people are the elite selected by the emperor from the various armies, and their families are also taken care of by the royal family. They migrated from Luojing to live in peace, and they are extremely loyal. It is almost impossible for outsiders to persuade them to surrender.
It is almost impossible to defeat these Shuolong imperial guards alone. The last time among them is the sixth-rank lieutenant, and there are about 200 seventh-rank captains among them. , can't please.
What's more, this is still in Yuzhang Mountain. If there is a fight, who knows if those red sparrow dragonriders on the Longya of the North Mountain will rush over. They are a powerful army with the red phoenix as the respect and the emperor as the second.
Seven days after the Son of Heaven climbed the mountain, there was chaos in Luojing, various forces were turbulent, and countless rumors began to spread.
Some people say that the emperor died, and the mourning was kept secret; There are all kinds of sayings, and it was also three days ago that the bustling Luojing Night Market in the past was no longer there, and the Red Scaled Guards began to implement a strict curfew.
Although such regulations have trapped millions of residents in Luojing, the students of Jixia Academy had to gather in the academy because of the curfew to discuss various ideas. These energetic and excited students spread the word, and outsiders didn't dare to criticize too much after hearing it. Whoever let these are the sons of heaven and counties of all states and counties, even the red-scaled halberd guards ~IndoMTL.com~ dare not be too strict Harsh them.
For a while, all kinds of birds passed on letters, flying over Luojing, and the sound of their wings flapping in the air was endless. Until three days later, the red-scaled halberd guards borrowed a 300-man owl-feather flying cavalry from Dong Lisi, Only then did the birds in the sky above Luojing who dared to deliver letters be killed.
But everyone knows that this is just to ease the situation. Now the news in Luo Jing has already spread, and soon, the two princes who are parading around the world will rush back to Luo Jing. There must be a dispute between the two , and the winner is very likely to be the next generation emperor.
The ancient keel horn sounded in the city, and with the desolate whimpering that represented action, teams of Julong soldiers in golden armor finally began to climb the mountain. Slowly raised his head and looked at the ministers and generals at the foot of the mountain.
These black-clothed and white-armored guards were silent, and the masks covering their faces made it difficult to see their expressions clearly. At this moment, under the command of a famous captain, they began to retreat beside the Shenlong Hall, forming a solid In the sea of shields, walls and knives, a burst of silver brilliance flashed, and the layers of shields and long knives formed a semicircular cover, enveloping the Shenlong Temple.
"Your Majesty has an order, anyone who trespasses will be killed without mercy!"
