Chapter 65 Chapter 65: Divine Soldiers
"A bunch of idiots!" In the secret room of the prime minister's mansion, Prime Minister Cao gritted his teeth and scolded, "How did they do it? He was still picked up by the palace people."
"It's not that you don't know that Zi Mian has always been supernatural, and he can't complain that his subordinates are useless." The prince beside him sipped his tea leisurely, and glanced at the prime minister, "It doesn't matter how he surprises, it's always a bad move... …We just have to go ahead with our own plans.”
The prime minister accepted the order obediently, looked at the prince and said: "The lower officials have informed the queen of the plan, and the queen is willing to cooperate - all the officials in the court will jointly sign on the table, and persuade the holy majesty to abdicate as the supreme emperor, retreat to Guanzhong, take care of the dragon body, and let your highness ascend the throne Then defend the capital and fight against the Yan army."
The prince smiled slightly, his eyebrows and eyes were indeed somewhat similar to Zi Mian, his cold eyes were like stars, and they were even more brilliant when he was concentrating on them: "What virtue and ability does this king have? It's a different matter. The safety of the emperor is the first priority - you can order people to go to the south to organize the palace first, so as not to be in a hurry when you get there."
"What is His Highness thinking about!"
"At that time, my king's unfounded brother will naturally know the outcome..." The prince lazily put down the teacup, got up and walked outside the secret room, "I really hate to hide like this, so bored..."
The emperor sat firmly on the dragon chair in the Golden Luan Hall, looked at the ministers on the table, and smiled imperceptibly at the corner of his mouth: "At this time of life and death, I can bear to abandon all the ministers of the country and live in a corner alone? " The prime minister held on to the wat board and moved out of the line, and said: "I think that Qin Taiwei left a watch on his deathbed, and what he said is very true, and he is afraid that the sage will not bear to let down the country, so he offers this two-way plan. Now the swallows and thieves are invading, and you can see it everywhere." Fengyan wants to plan to conquer the enemy and turn the tide, but first avoids its edge. When Wang Sheng is worried about the world, he also takes the safety of the dragon body as the most important thing." The emperor nodded at the seat and said yes: "Now that the Yan thief is approaching the capital, the soldiers in front are not strong enough, and I am also in a hurry-come, Master Xuan Zimian, go to the palace." All the officials were in an uproar, especially the prince and prime minister's faces were the most ugly. They didn't expect the Holy Majesty to be so ostentatious, blatantly proclaiming Zi Mian, who had been demoted as a commoner, to the court hall. Zi Mian was dressed in cassock, and went to the hall with downcast eyes to meet the Holy Majesty.After the emperor announced his death, he leaned forward a little, and asked with great interest: "It is rumored that Aiqing has the ability to cast beans into soldiers, is this true?" "Reporting to the Holy Majesty, I have the method of commanding divine weapons, and can summon heavenly soldiers and generals." "Ridiculous!" Before Zi Mian could finish speaking, the Prime Minister had already scolded in a low voice. Zi Mian turned a deaf ear to his reproach, just staring at the calm emperor sitting on the seat.The emperor nodded, and said slowly: "I'm afraid there is no basis for what you say. Can Aiqing cast a spell so that the ministers can see the magic skills, so as to convince them?" "My minister complies." "Your Majesty," the prime minister sternly stopped, "How can you interfere with the affairs of the country if you have no skills at all? It's really ridiculous, how can you convince the public? Besides, the status of a warlock is low. If you appoint this person, what will the soldiers in the front have? " "If you have the help of the gods, how can you be ridiculous and generous," the emperor smiled and looked at Zi Mian, his eyes moved slightly, his eyes glanced at the crown prince, and finally fell on the prime minister, "As for Lord Zi Mian's humble status... I have met with him yesterday We recognize each other—he is my long-lost eldest son." As soon as this remark came out, it was like thunder, and there was no sound in the hall for a long time.The prince's face recovered first. He looked at his father and spoke out, his voice was both surprised and happy: "Is it true, father? It turns out that I have an elder brother?" "En," the emperor nodded, "The celestial master of the Han Dynasty has also admitted that Lord Zimian was born to a maid in the abolished harem. Since he is my son and was ordered to serve the country, he deserves it... Zimian, you should do your best for." Zi Mian lowered her head, cupped her hands and said slowly: "Yes... I obey." The emperor nodded in satisfaction.He couldn't stop smiling at the prince, and sighed helplessly for him in his heart—hey, if you're afraid that others will rob you, why don't you come and rob me first?The seat is always yours, if you want to grab it, I will arrange someone to grab it for you... Force the palace now?It's too early! Zi Mian stood on the altar in the palace, looked at the crowd who questioned her, and smiled slightly.No matter when and where, he will always be questioned. After so many years of hard work, how can he be willing to do everything as destiny. Heaven, earth, and people, he does not bow his head and proclaim himself a vassal. The strong wind blew Zi Mian's cassock, and the sleeves of the robe fluttered like a fairy, almost breaking his thin figure.After curling up the cigarette, the seven-star sword streaked across the cold light, and with a pinch of the hand formula, the wind was surging and the long hair was flying. The long period of silence made His Highness's ministers more and more anxious. They exchanged disgusted and angry eyes with each other, and they all wanted to attack Zi Mian in the next moment and attack the Holy One. At this moment, the sound of rolling thunder suddenly came faintly from the sky, everyone suddenly sank down and listened carefully to the strange movement in the distance.The thunder rolled closer and closer, and at the moment it approached the palace wall, it suddenly turned into a thunderous roar of iron hooves.The sky was dark, and with a long hiss of a war horse, countless burly cavalry passed through the wall like ghosts, swarming towards the civil and military officials. The faces of the officials changed, and they watched the cavalry rushing like a tide, and they were so frightened that they retreated and huddled together. The prime minister stared at these heavily armored cavalry with a livid face—the horses were wrapped in vests, and only the dark shadows under the armor could be vaguely seen; The knife glowed with a dazzling blue light. Illusions, relying on sorcery and illusions to try to calm down the world, how stupid and ridiculous!The prime minister was ashamed to be in the company of timid civil servants, stood up with his sleeves swished, and shouted sharply: "Cavalry can pass through the palace wall, and they can be seen as phantoms at a glance. How can such a bluff trick kill the enemy?" As he spoke, he saw Yiqi took the lead, and a general came straight to the prime minister holding a long knife.The prime minister's eyes were sharp, and he was unwilling to back down at all. Seeing the horse approaching, the long knife was about to slash at the prime minister. A guard stepped forward to block the prime minister, raising his knife in defense: "My lord, be careful." Before he could finish speaking, the prime minister was stunned, his face was spattered with blood, and his twitching body leaned against him. When he took a closer look, it turned out to be a headless corpse.The guard's skull rolled to the feet of the officials, making them scream in horror, and some even vomited on the spot. "Bold!" The prime minister came back to his senses, and scolded angrily, "In front of Your Majesty, you are so presumptuous..." He didn't have time to finish cursing, he just felt that there was a gloomy wind around him, and the thousands of troops and horses were really like phantoms, galloping and roaring through his body. Is all this really an illusion? While the prime minister was stunned, Zi Mian had already stepped down from the altar.His eyes were indifferent, and he ignored the blood-stained prime minister, and walked up to the emperor to plead guilty: "The magic soldiers will attack people with murderous intent. I didn't explain this before I did it. It's my son's recklessness. Please forgive me." "Well, although there are inappropriate things, it has also shown everyone the true chapter. I believe everyone has admired it." The emperor was very satisfied, and only ordered the eunuch to clean the floor, "Zi Mian, can you take these soldiers to fight?" ?” "My ministers are not talented, so I can only mobilize three thousand heavenly soldiers, and they can only defend the city." The emperor nodded: "The top priority is to defend the capital, thank you for your hard work." "This is the duty of the servants." Zi Mian replied respectfully. "Brother's amazing skills are really a blessing to the country. Now that the flesh and blood are reunited, and the enemy is expected to be reunited, it is really a double blessing." The prince approached Zi Mian with a smile, and turned to ask the emperor, "Father, can I arrange a palace for my brother? If you rush For the future and preparations, you can go to Erchen." "Thank you, Prince, for your concern." Zi Mian also turned around and bowed to the emperor, "I have to do something in the past few days, and my evil spirit is too strong. It is not suitable to live in the palace, and I dare not bother the emperor and the prince." "Well, you are also considered one of the Taoist gods, so just follow your temperament." Zi Mian retired according to the etiquette, and everyone watched his back, only feeling that the mighty ghost was still following behind him, appearing faintly from time to time, making his figure a little trance. After the emperor's imperial chariot was far away, the prince frowned and approached the prime minister. Seeing that he was covered in blood, he hesitated for a moment, but walked to his side: "It doesn't matter, my lord." "Ashamed," the prime minister flicked his sleeves, straightened his clothes, and said bitterly, "It's a good way to scare the chickens and monkeys." "Father wants to use him to contain us. Before his name is determined, the plan has to be shelved for the time being." The crown prince raised his eyebrows and said helplessly, "This king is too anxious, and now I have to accompany my father again." Be careful for a while..." "Why don't you add a little more manpower as an officer?" "If you move him now, what do others think of me?" The prince smiled slightly and said softly, "Let's wait for the opportunity to move."
In Cuiying Hall, Long Baiyue skillfully sewed the pearl earrings that Zi Mian gave her into her belt.Princess Yunyang looked at it and said with a sneer: "The eunuch wants to take away the Jin Cui jewellery. You are a treasure, and I don't like it at all. What are you hiding?" "Princess, you don't know. They will come to collect the jewelry in a while. If they see the earrings of the servants and want to beat the autumn wind, the servants will not obey them." Long Baiyue stopped sewing and looked at her hands helplessly, " The servant finally understands that the hands of the servant are naturally unable to gather money. No matter how much money is in this hand, there will always be a reason to fall from the sky and take the money away." In the past, it was expensive, but later the silver notes given by the Shangqing Palace were robbed by bandits, and now the jewelry rewarded by the princess has to be collected in the name of raising money to negotiate a peace.She can appreciate money like flowing water, but she must keep the token sent by Zi Mian no matter what. "Hmph," Princess Yunyang sneered, "I can't blame you for this, it's going from bad to worse these days." While talking, Bao'er took the letter paper again, Long Baiyue hurriedly pulled down the letter to read it, and frowned as soon as she opened it - why did she always reply in the same way. "Ouch, you're going to pull all the teeth out of your mouth." Bao'er turned into a human form, covered her mouth and complained, "Why are you so anxious..." Long Baiyue put down the letter and asked her: "Did you really send the letter to Zi Mian for me?" "The conscience of heaven and earth!" Bao'er stared in surprise. "Then why does he keep replying these words..." Long Baiyue whispered.No matter whether her letter was happy or sad, Zi Mian always told her to wait for him at ease, which was not wrong, but she hoped that he could give her some thoughtful words.She can understand and complain about his careless words.
"I know you have hatred for the prime minister, but today you are too reckless and almost ruined my plan." Zi Mian closed her eyes tightly, speaking to the seal under the lamp, her face was illuminated by the flickering candlelight, looking a bit gloomy, "You are unwilling to die due to internal strife and conspiracy. I will transfer your three thousand heavy cavalry from the bottom of the Cangzhou River to fulfill your wish to serve the country loyally...so please cooperate with me..." "Yes...Even if you become a ghost, you can't do whatever you want. Do you need me to advise you on this?...General He..." The candlelight gradually settled down, Zi Mian suddenly opened her eyes, and opened the wooden box next to the seal with her hands.There was a row of elixir in the box, and a few pills had been emptied, he hurriedly took out one and swallowed it, and after a long while, his rapid breathing calmed down.The extreme fatigue after doing the exercises made Zi Mian extremely tired, so weak that he pressed his forehead against the wooden cabinet by the side of the chair, and raised his sleeve to wipe away the blood from the corners of his mouth...
The emperor sat firmly on the dragon chair in the Golden Luan Hall, looked at the ministers on the table, and smiled imperceptibly at the corner of his mouth: "At this time of life and death, I can bear to abandon all the ministers of the country and live in a corner alone?
