Chapter 75 Chapter 32

The first half of 1975 was destined to be an eventful year. Shocking events followed one after another, and the endless river of history looked back in amazement, watching with concern the great families of the Great Xia Dynasty, the current imperial power, and the people all over the world. Their eyes are all focused on the imperial capital, and their simple minds may not be able to understand the intrigues of politicians, but the instinct of survival in the years of war makes them vigilantly discover that an era of great change may be coming, and the sky is full of clouds and wind. They are looking at the tortuous and confused road in the future, and they are anxious about their own tomorrow.

The Great Xia Dynasty has been passed down for three hundred years, and the establishment of the previous regime can be traced back thousands of years.In the meantime, it has experienced many disasters such as rebellion, foreign attack, split, national war, internal strife, mutiny, etc., but the imperial power of Daxia is still tenaciously standing up to now.In the eyes of the world, this iron-blooded military regime is the strongest symbol. They have a powerful national army and loyal Hongchuan soldiers. The land, after thousands of years of wind and snow, no one can shake it.Whether it is a clan like the Muhe clan, or the Tang and Song Dynasties and other self-proclaimed orthodox eastern royal families.

However, no one could have imagined that it was the roar of 10,000 officers and soldiers who had nowhere to go in the remote southwest corner of the imperial capital in the middle of the night on May 20th, which almost destroyed the millennium-long rule of the Great Xia Dynasty. On that day, Yanbei's eagle flag fluttered in the wind and roared like a lion, shaking the whole world. "your Highness!" The female officer was wearing a cumbersome court dress, with a thin Qingluan totem on the sleeves, and a high bun. She ran to the main gate of the inner palace gate with a panicked expression, grabbed the girl's arm, and said anxiously: "The grand ceremony It’s about to start, why are you still here? Mr. He, Mr. Song and Mr. Lu from the Ministry of Rites are waiting for you in the princess’s mansion, and a few imperial servants are still kneeling in the Baihe hall at this moment!”

"Aunt Miao," the girl in the scarlet auspicious costume panicked and grabbed the hand of the female officer: "What should I do? It's been an hour, but he still hasn't come back. Could something happen?" The female officer was around her early twenties, but she looked very mature, she hugged Zhao Chun'er's shoulder comfortingly, and said softly: "The people outside the palace are jubilant at the moment, it is inevitable that it will be crowded, there may be a delay, you don't have to worry about it. " Zhao Chun'er bit her lower lip, but the worry in her heart could not be erased. She persuaded herself to obey the female officer's words and not to think too much about him. She followed the female officer and walked towards the harem.

In the darkness, the female officer's brows were slowly frowned. The royal family's rituals have their own fixed time, how dare ordinary people block the royal car, there must be something wrong with them that they don't know about. At this moment, a fast horse suddenly resounded through the palace gate, and Zhao Chun'er turned around immediately, only to see a soldier rushing into the palace gate in embarrassment, his horse hooves hurried, but was stopped by the guards of the palace gate. "I have something important to report to the emperor, let me in!" The guards stood still like a mountain and stopped in front of the soldiers, saying in a low voice, "Please show your majesty's letter or token."

The soldier was sweating profusely and roared angrily, "The matter is so important that you won't be able to cut off ten of your heads if it's delayed!" "What's the matter?" Zhao Chun'er frowned, turned around and walked forward. "His Royal Highness?" The soldier recognized Zhao Chun'er's identity after only one glance at her attire, and was startled. Yan Xun, the heir of Yanbei, erected an anti-flag in the south of the city, and brought the soldiers and horses of the Southwest Township's envoy to kill him!" "Boom!"

A hand warmer in Princess Chun's hand immediately fell to the ground, and the young Tianzhijiao's face was pale, her lips were bruised, and she was so shocked that she couldn't speak. "Their people have controlled the road to the Presbyterian Council and the Yin Yamen of the Imperial Capital. The elders and generals are still in the palace. Your Highness, this matter must be reported as soon as possible and a decision must be made early! Your Highness? Princess?" "Ah, oh, you're right." Princess Chun came back to her senses, nodded with a stiff neck, her frightened expression slowly receded, and said calmly, "Come with me."

The soldier was overjoyed and wanted to go in after Princess Chun. The guard at the palace gate frowned, stepped forward boldly and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, this is against the rules." "What's the rule?" The female officer frowned and said angrily, "Does Her Royal Highness have to get your approval to bring someone? Whose subordinate are you, you are so courageous!" "Aunt Miao, stop talking." Zhao Chun'er turned pale, turned around and walked towards the Fang Gui Hall in the Inner Palace, where tonight's wedding ceremony will be held, and at this moment all the officials from the Manchu Dynasty have arrived.

A few people followed behind her, the fish pierced through the palace gate, the guard who guarded the gate frowned, and exchanged winks with several other guards, the cold wind blew through the eaves of the gate. Passing through Chunhua Pavilion, Ziwei Corridor and Shengxian Gate is the Royal Garden.At this time, the sky was pitch black, the wind lamps were flickering all around, and there was a dead silence, Zhao Chun'er suddenly stopped, her face was frighteningly pale, she turned her head and waved to the soldier, "Come here, I have something to ask you." The soldier hurried forward, bowed his waist, and lowered his head respectfully.

Zhao Chun'er stepped forward, and was almost close to the soldier. The female officer behind her frowned when she saw it, and was about to speak, when suddenly she heard a scream of "ah", and the soldier suddenly became violent. , kicked hard at the princess's lower abdomen, and the girl fell to the ground with a single bone. The female officer was shocked and shouted sharply: "There are thorns..." The sound stopped abruptly as soon as it came out, and the soldier was covered in blood, twitching and struggling on the spot.Zhao Chun'er got up from the ground in embarrassment, crawled forward like a clumsy puppy, raised the golden dagger in his hand, and slammed it into the soldier's chest!

Fresh blood splashed, dripping bright red, and large strands of blood floated in the air with a warm smell. The girl's clothes and face were covered with blood, but she continued to swing the knife, and the sound of the blade piercing into the flesh echoed around. It sounds chilling! "Princess! Princess!" The female officer was stunned, and she climbed up to embrace Zhao Chun'er's body with a crying voice, held her hand firmly, and kept calling: "He's dead, he's dead." With a sound of "cha", the dagger fell to the ground immediately, the girl's eyes were wide open, she sat down slumped, her hands and feet were trembling almost uncontrollably. "I killed people, I killed people..." "Princess, what's the matter? But did this man offend you?" "Aunt Miao!" Zhao Chun'er held her hand tightly, her eyes were red, and she said in a deep voice, "You go out of the city immediately, go to the south of the city to look for Prince Yan, and tell him, don't be impulsive, don't do stupid things, don't take it for yourself Perish. He is unwilling, I know, I understand everything, I will not force him, I will go and explain it to my father now." "Princess, what did you say?" "Go!" Zhao Chun'er was furious, stood up abruptly, and said, "Go and find him immediately, and convey my words, just say that I will go to ask my father for an order now, I will not marry, and I will not force him anymore .” "Princess……" "Aunt Miao, please." A string of tears fell from Zhao Chun'er's eyes. Her face was as pale as paper, her lips were bruised and purple, but her eyes were bloodshot.The young little princess bit her lower lip tightly, trying not to cry out. There was still a lot of blood on her neck, and she tightly grasped the female officer's arm with both hands, as if she wanted to insert her nails into the other's flesh and blood. After all, the female officer was not very old, she was so frightened that she cried, she kept nodding her head and said, "Princess, don't worry, I will definitely find Prince Yan." "That's good," Zhao Chun'er wiped away her tears, nodded and said, "Then you go, it's very chaotic outside the palace, you should be careful." "Well, don't worry, princess." After a brief explanation, the two turned around and parted ways, and walked quickly towards the north and south. The cold wind whistling, rolled up the dust and leaves on the ground, the female officer hurriedly walked along the path, but just turned around a rockery, a bright white blade flashed across, the female officer's eyes were wide open, and before she could clearly see who was coming, she just Fell in a pool of blood. In the darkness, several men came out slowly, and the leader was the guard in front of the city gate. "Brother Yu, Princess Chun..." "It's okay, she won't say anything." The man said in a deep voice with a firm face, "Seal the north gate and go to the west gate to meet the girl." In the middle of the night, Deputy General Cheng of the Xiaoqi Battalion was still asleep. He had just had a drink with the soldiers in the Southern Camp. At this moment, he was sleeping soundly with his arms around a plump military prostitute. "My lord! My lord, wake up!" The orderly eagerly shook his arm. Deputy Cheng frowned, opened his eyes angrily, looked at the orderly and said in a deep voice, "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation." "My lord, Commander Hua, the envoy of the Southwest Township, is here. He looks very anxious and says he has something urgent to call you." "Hua Jie?" Deputy General Cheng sat up quickly, and said in a deep voice, "What is he looking for me for?" "The subordinates don't know either, but Commander Hua looks panicked, as if something big happened." "Go and have a look." Deputy General Cheng put on his clothes and strode out of the bedroom. The young military prostitute slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were sharp, like silver foxes. "General Cheng, you are awake." "Let Commander Hua wait for a long time, and visit late at night, I don't know what to do?" Hua Jie, as the commander of the Southwest Township, is on the same level as Zhao Che and Zhao Qi in terms of official position, but because the Southwest Township has always been in decline, he doesn't have much face as a commander. Although Deputy General Cheng is only a deputy commander, He is inferior to him in official position, but he is not afraid of him.After a brief courtesy, let's get down to business. "General Cheng, something serious has happened!" Commander Hua panicked, and said in a deep voice, "Yan Xun has rebelled, and he took 10,000 officers and soldiers from the Southwest Township to attack the Holy Gold Palace. Now we have arrived at Changshui Street!" "What?" Deputy General Cheng was startled, stood up abruptly, and asked sharply. "In our army, Deputy Commander He Xiao led the whole army to follow Yan Xun and killed two divisions of the Xiaoqi Battalion to train soldiers and horses. I only learned about it after receiving a tip from my subordinates in the army. I have just sent people to the Shengjin Palace, Fuyin Yamen, the North and South Military Aircraft Office, and the Green Battalion to report, General Cheng, please gather your troops immediately, or it will be too late." Deputy Cheng was shocked, thinking that there was something wrong with his ears, he nodded quickly: "I understand, Commander Hua, your loyalty and bravery will definitely be rewarded by the empire." "A reward?" Hua Jie smiled wryly: "I'm making amends now, I just hope that I won't be convicted of negligence." Deputy General Cheng moved his lips, wanting to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end. Like Hua Jie, he had already seen the bleak future of this person. "I'm leaving first, and I have to go to the Green Camp. General Cheng, hurry up, time is running out, we are already one step behind, the safety of the imperial capital rests on your shoulders alone." Deputy General Cheng stood at attention and replied: "I will definitely live up to the general's expectations." At this moment, he suddenly had some respect for this useless commander nicknamed "Hua Nose". Seeing his figure disappear at the door, Deputy General Cheng went back to his room to put on his armor, and said in a deep voice to the orderly: "Go and inform the battalions Quickly come to the big tent to assemble, blow the assembly number, and let the whole army stand by in the paddock." The orderly nodded and replied, "Yes!" As soon as the words fell, the orderly's eyes suddenly opened wide, his eye sockets protruded, and he let out a miserable grunt, bleeding from the corner of his mouth.Deputy General Cheng was stunned for a moment, and looked around in panic, only to see a sharp arrow piercing through the orderly's chest, blood seeping out from the heart, the arrow was ferocious, bloodthirsty like a wolf's fangs. With a bang, the orderly fell to the ground!The graceful and plump military prostitute stood behind him, still wearing a coquettish smile on her face, holding a small crossbow in her hand, smiling brightly, revealing her white teeth like plaid shells, and then gently Pull the trigger. "Swish!" The arrows whizzed forward, there was no time to resist or dodge at such a short distance, Deputy General Cheng watched the crossbow arrow penetrate his heart, his physical strength was rapidly drained, and he didn't even utter a scream , a large piece of blood exploded on his chest, the man let out a muffled grunt, and fell heavily on the warm big bed. The military prostitute withdrew her smile, put on her clothes neatly, and opened the curtain of the big tent. There was silence outside the tent, and the moon was big and round, hanging high in the sky.The woman took out the signal flare on her waist and fired it towards the sky.A blue flame exploded high in the sky, brilliant and dazzling. On such a festive night, under the sky full of fire and flowers, it did not arouse any suspicion. In an unremarkable dwelling in the west city, a woman in white clothes like snow stood in the courtyard, looking up at the blue flames in the sky, with an indifferent expression on her face, for a long time, she said to her subordinates in a deep voice: "At all costs, in the Within an hour, the Green Battalion, Xiaoqi, and North and South Military Aircraft camps were completely paralyzed." Xia Zhi, Xi Rui and the others responded with deep voices, and Bian Cang stepped forward and said, "Girl, everything in the palace is peaceful, and the gates on the north and east are under control. Miss Chu's plan has succeeded." "Well," Miss Yu nodded, "The firework project starts now." The moon is as cool as water, and the brilliance is clear. This night, the entire Zhenhuang City is immersed in crazy joy and joy. However, unsuspecting beasts are slowly approaching, and they secretly stretch out their ferocious claws. In the soft underbelly of the empire. The spies placed by the Great Fellowship for many years started a frenzied killing, unknowingly paralyzing the entire empire's connection.On this night, the Great Peer Association, which has always advocated equality, peace and fraternity, showed their sharp and terrifying teeth. Under the planning of Chu Qiao and Miss Yu, bloody murders started without any scruples. The empire lost countless elites, and lost The weight is difficult to estimate and measure. Wang Baiyang, a member of the Second Division of the Xiaoqi Battalion, was forcibly injected with arsenic in his sleep and died of the poison. Jiang Meng, the deputy commander of the Green Army, was strangled to death by his concubine with a rope. The generals of the ninth division of the fifth division of the third division of the Green Camp Army, Lu Yang, Xiao Qian, and Hu Yansheng were attacked by assassins on the road after drinking, and were shot to death by random arrows. The thirty guards they brought were wiped out , no one escaped. Xue Shijie, the commander of the North Army Aircraft Division, died in his own latrine. The reason is unknown, and the murderer is unknown. The well water at the Southern Army Aircraft Office was poisoned. That night, the entire camp was completely comatose and paralyzed. Half of them are no longer alive. An hour later, a group of black-clothed men and horses drove into the west gate of the imperial city, and the gate guards didn't make a sound as if they couldn't see the group of people. "Zuoqiu, bring a message to His Highness, everything is going well, proceed as planned." "Yes, girl." As the loyal subordinate left the imperial city, Chu Qiao took off her bloody black night gown, revealing the embroidered clothes inside, and walked quickly towards a sedan chair hidden among the flowers. The bearers lifted the sedan chair, Without saying a word, he strode forward. A moment later, the sedan chair stopped in front of the palace gate of the Fanggui Palace, and the killing continued in the darkness outside, but the imperial city was still immersed in a sea of ​​luxury, and there was melodious music and laughter far away came from afar. "Girl, here we are." The attendant lowered his head and spoke slowly. Chu Qiao got off the sedan chair, and she was wearing a light blue dress, ironed on her body.The girl's eyes were like water, she looked ahead clearly, her back was straight, without fear, she raised her feet and walked towards the hall. "Girl," a low voice suddenly came from behind, and the four bearers knelt on the ground. The girl stopped, only to hear a hoarse voice behind her, and the man said slowly in a suppressed tone: "The future is unpredictable." , the road is difficult, please cherish it for Datong, and for His Highness." Chu Qiao's body trembled slightly, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her chest. Years of anticipation and waiting burned her mind like a big fire. The ups and downs and hardships made her eyes It is clearer, makes her back more straight, and makes her shoulders stronger. She firmly believes that she must be able to walk tenaciously.Just like the lion-like oath that the young man made many years ago in the dilemma of life and death: "I am confident, the sky will never stop, I will Yanbei." It doesn't matter ideals, it doesn't matter Datong, everything is just because of the original promise. "Shall we go back to Yanbei together?" "Let's go back to Yanbei together!" With a sudden sound, the strong wind blew up the corners of her flamboyant skirt, the girl held her head high, and walked steadily towards the Fang Gui Hall!
