The huge turntable kept turning, and a blue light came out, filling Xiao Cheng's sight.
The light spread out and condensed into an illusory figure.
I saw a middle-aged man with a messy dragon robe and gray hair scattered behind him. Although he was in a mess and lacked the majesty of an emperor, he was staring ahead, his eyes filled with sorrow and anger, and his face was full of determination.
Only a desolate and tragic sound was heard, ringing in Xiao Cheng's ears.
"The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country!"

The lottery this time turned out to be the long-lost Dika, Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
The blue light changed again, and the illusory figure gradually dissipated, and finally turned into a blue card. When Xiao Cheng stretched out his hand, it slowly fell into his hand.
Xiao Cheng looked at it carefully, and his eyes immediately fell on Dika's skill [Afterglow of the Ming Dynasty].
[Tianxiong Army, third-level special archers, can be formed]
[Required training level for soldiers——80]
[Prerequisite—Dika skill “Afterglow of the Ming Dynasty”]
[Required equipment—crossbow arrows*number of troops*1, heavy armor*number of troops*1, spear*number of troops*1]
[Characteristics - One Unity: Soldiers are all from the same country, share weal and woe, and unite as one. When the army loses 40%, morale doubles and attack power increases by 2 points]
Today, Xiao Cheng has three levels of cavalry under his command, the Youzhou Assault Cavalry that uses surprise tactics, and the newly acquired, three-level heavy infantry Baijie elite soldiers who have just begun to form.
And this Tianxiong Army made up for the shortcomings of Xiao Cheng's troops in long-range attacks.
In addition to the Tianxiong Army, there is also the second-level cavalry Guan Ning Iron Cavalry.
[Guanning Iron Cavalry, second-level special cavalry, can be formed]
[Required training level for soldiers——70]
[Prerequisite—Dika skill “Afterglow of the Ming Dynasty”]
[Required equipment—war horse*number of troops*1, heavy armor*number of troops*1, spear*number of troops*1, chain armor*number of troops*1]
[Characteristics - Liao people guarding Liao soil: When guarding the border, the defense power increases by 2 and the blood volume increases by 1]
Although they are second-level cavalry, because they are heavy-armored cavalry, their individual combat capabilities are actually a little higher than those of the Youzhou Assault Cavalry.
However, this characteristic is a bit incompatible with heavy armored cavalry.
Well, although it is somewhat consistent with historical facts...
This emperor card comes with two special troops, and it doesn't look like a blue emperor card at all. But looking at these three skills, half of them have negative effects, which is quite reasonable.
Naturally, this cannot be compared with the purple imperial card [King Qi Xuan] that Xiao Cheng is currently carrying, but Xiao Cheng is still a little greedy for the two special units that come with it.
[Strategy value: 572]
[Whether to consume 400 strategy points to obtain the Dika skill.]
With a thought in Xiao Cheng's mind, all 400 strategy points were consumed instantly.
The blue Tika in his hand suddenly shattered into pieces, and a faint sigh was heard, accompanied by a sound full of unwillingness.
"All ministers have misunderstood me..."
Blue light scattered around, and a point of light flew out from it and suddenly landed on Xiao Cheng's body.
[June 30th, the first year of Zhaosheng (summer) in Dayun Kingdom
Effective skills: Tian clan on behalf of Qi, accepting suggestions widely, working hard to govern, Jixia Academy
Additional skills: Destiny Zhaozhao, Dali Duanshi, Ming Dynasty Afterglow]
Xiao Cheng looked at the golden finger panel and nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, Feng Bao's voice sounded outside the Yangxin Hall.
"Your Majesty, I have something to ask you!"
"Come in!"
When Feng Bao heard this, he walked quickly into the palace and saluted:
"Your Majesty, we found a rather suspicious place in Dongchang based on the traces of Xiang Shan, the housekeeper of Qu Mansion. Everything is ready for a raid tonight."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he immediately said in a deep voice:
"What happened?"
"There were a total of thirteen people in that courtyard, and they were all dead soldiers. The leader escaped from a secret passage under the desperate cover of others. Six of the remaining twelve people died in the chaos. The two were captured for a while.
After checking, he committed suicide. The remaining four people were all captured!"
"Death warrior? What's the origin?" Xiao Cheng asked casually.
In fact, Xiao Cheng also had speculations about this issue. After all, there were people who transported large amounts of materials to the southwest of Xia Kingdom before. Judging from this matter, it was probably the Xia Kingdom's embroidered clothes envoys hidden in Zhongqing City.
Feng Bao bowed slightly and said in a deep voice:
"Although there is no tiger talisman to verify the identity, the captured man could not bear the torture of Dongchang and has already confessed that he is the embroidered cloth envoy of the Xia Kingdom."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he nodded as expected.
It was obvious that the list of embroidered messengers that King Qi had given him before was incomplete!
Look at this time again, the embroidery envoys spent a lot of time, but in the end they only allowed King Qi, who was in the southwest of Xia Kingdom, to get the most scarce supplies.
Therefore, it is very possible that King Qi plotted against him and used the power of the Yun State to clean up the Yun State's Embroidered Clothes Envoys, allowing King Qi's people to truly control the Yun State's Embroidered Clothes Envoys.
Xiao Cheng had previously thought that King Qi was straightforward, but he didn't expect that he had two faces!
"I remember that Shen Wansan has already taken over the entire material transportation channel, right?" Xiao Cheng asked again.
When Feng Bao heard this, he quickly said:
"In order not to alert others and make Jin Tangfeng alert, we did not fully accept it. However, as long as His Majesty orders it, our Dongchang can help Shen Wansan take over immediately."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, his eyelids drooped and he said calmly:
"In that case, let's do it directly!"
At this point in the matter, we know almost everything that needs to be known, and there is obviously no need to wait any longer.
Feng Bao bowed slightly and responded:
"yes!"
--------------------------
Late at night, the sound of rapid horse hooves and the sound of military boots hitting the ground suddenly resounded throughout the city.
The officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army scattered out and surrounded the mansion in front of them.
The eunuch in the palace held the imperial edict in his hands, mounted his horse, and slowly rode the horse under the escort of the general of the imperial army, and arrived in front of the gate of the mansion.
"According to His Majesty's imperial edict, Jintang Peak is suspected of embezzling relief food and grass and communicating with foreign countries. The people in the mansion quickly opened the door of the mansion and were arrested without mercy, waiting for the court to interrogate. If there is any intention of resistance, they will be killed without mercy!"
The sharp voice, full of murderous intent at this time, passed into the Jin Mansion.
In the Jin Mansion, no one responded for a long time.
When the eunuch in the palace saw this, he snorted coldly, slowly put away the imperial edict, and immediately looked at the general of the imperial army beside him.
When the general of the Forbidden Army saw this, he immediately sharpened his eyes, drew out the sword from his waist, and shouted:
"attack!"
"Kill!" A group of Forbidden Army soldiers suddenly shouted violently.
Suddenly, the soldiers rushed away, and the ferocious aura on the battlefield was like a tide, rushing towards Jin Mansion...
-------------------
Qufu.
After Qu Cheng learned about Feng Bao's arrival, he personally led everyone out to greet him.
But when he saw the crowd of Dongchang fans behind Feng Bao, his eyelids suddenly jumped.
When Feng Bao saw this, he bowed to Qu Cheng with a kind face and said:
"Lord Qu, by your Majesty's order, I am here to deliver the message."
Hearing this, Qu Cheng quickly bowed to salute.
Feng Bao wanted to save some face for Qu Cheng, so he quickly said:
"Master Qu, it's late at night and it's cold, so let's go in and talk first!"
Hearing this, Qu Cheng felt even more alarmed and uneasy. But he didn't know what to say and quickly welcomed Qu Cheng in.
It wasn't until everyone entered the mansion that Feng Bao took a look at the family behind Qu Cheng and noticed that Qu Jing and Xiang Shan were standing behind them with their heads lowered, and then he took out the imperial edict.
When everyone saw this, they quickly knelt on the ground and listened respectfully to the imperial edict.
"Your Majesty has decreed that Qu Jing, the son of the Qu Mansion, and Xiang Shan, the housekeeper, are suspected of embezzling grain and fodder and communicating with foreign countries. The case is very involved and should be handed over to Dongchang for detailed investigation!"
This imperial edict was like a thunderbolt from the blue, hitting Qu Cheng on the head, leaving him stunned on the spot, not knowing what to say.
His only son Qu Jing, although his talents are not that outstanding, his temperament and temperament are quite reliable. He may have done some stupid things, but he will never do such things as embezzling food supplies and treason and collaborating with the enemy!
So at this time, the first thought in Qu Cheng's mind was not that he doubted what his son had really done, but that His Majesty was now wary of the influence of his three families and finally began to find excuses to take action.
Qu Jing, who was kneeling behind Qu Cheng, was stunned for a moment after hearing the imperial edict clearly, and then couldn't help but scream loudly.
"It's unfair! What about embezzling food and grass and communicating with foreign countries? I have never done it!"
Xiang Shan on the side also trembled and raised his head in disbelief.
Has it been discovered?
Qu Cheng looked gloomy, took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, gritted his teeth and said:
"Eunuch Feng, what did you do wrong?"
When Feng Bao heard this, he shook his head slightly and said:
"Lord Qu, if there is no solid evidence, why would our family have to go through this?"
When Feng Bao said this, he paused slightly and continued:
"This plague in Jianchang Prefecture left nearly a million refugees in Changning County. You, Master Qu, also know about the relief issued by His Majesty. Hucao Shangshu Liu Yu colluded with Jin Tangfeng of the Zajia family to control the north.
Border officials embezzled supplies and exchanged bran for rice to make huge profits. The prince of your house was also involved."
"Liu Yu..." Qu Cheng murmured a few words and suddenly turned his head to look at Qu Jing.
When Qu Jing heard this, her face was full of confusion, and she subconsciously said:
"The child has met Mr. Liu before, but it was just Butler Xiang who said he was raising money for the child..."
Having said this, Qu Jing reacted suddenly, turned to look at Xiang Shan, and said angrily:
"Xiang Shan, what's going on?"
At this time, Xiang Shan's face was pale, he was sweating profusely, his body was limp, and he looked extremely guilty.
Qu Cheng is also a human spirit, how could he still not see anything unusual at this time.
Liu Yu was his former subordinate, and Xiang Shan looked like this again. Obviously, this matter is really closely related to the Qu family!
For a moment, Qu Cheng's expression darkened.
Feng Bao raised his hand slightly, and his subordinate Fanzi stepped forward to capture the two of them.
Seeing Qu Cheng's gloomy face again, Feng Bao gently raised his hand, helped Qu Cheng up, and said:
"Master Qu, before your Majesty came here, he had an explanation with our family..."
Hearing this, Qu Cheng hurriedly looked up at Feng Bao, grabbed his arm, and said:
"Please give me some advice, father-in-law!"
Feng Bao nodded and comforted in a gentle voice:
"Your Majesty has specifically confessed before that this matter has nothing to do with your master, and is just being used by his subordinates. This case needs to be investigated in detail, so I just took Mr. Qu back with him. Only when the matter comes to light, will it really be with your master.
It doesn’t matter to Mr. Qu. Your Majesty has an explanation for the government and the public, so Mr. Qu will naturally be fine..."
Hearing this, Qu Cheng subconsciously turned his head and looked at his only son.
Qu Jing looked confused and slightly panicked, but without a trace of remorse. It was obvious that she was not clear about what was going on.
Qu Cheng thought he knew his son well, and he would never have the guts to do such a thing.
Thinking of this, Qu Cheng grabbed Feng Bao's hand and tightened it slightly, and said in a low voice, with a hint of pleading:
"Please, father-in-law, take more care of my little dog..."
Feng Bao nodded slightly and said in a gentle voice:
"Don't worry! It's thanks to Master Qu that your Majesty has something on his mind!"
Hearing this, Qu Cheng was silent for a moment and nodded thoughtfully.
------------------
In a dilapidated courtyard in the city, a figure jumped out from the dry well in the courtyard, and then suddenly fell to the ground, stunned and stunned.
Through the moonlight, I could see clearly the appearance of this person, it was the Jintang Peak.
Not far from this courtyard is Jin Mansion.
At this time, the war horses neighed, iron hooves trampled on the ground, and the sound of killing, screaming, and roaring filled with ferocious aura continued to come from the direction of Jin Mansion.
The disciples who are loyal to Jintangfeng are doing their best to block the imperial troops and delay Jintangfeng's time.
But unfortunately, in front of the military formation, resistance to the cry of killing is gradually weakening.
The gradually weakening voice was like a heavy hammer, hitting Jin Tangfeng's chest one after another, making him feel severe pain in his heart, tears flowing down from the corners of his eyes involuntarily, and a look of regret on his face.
At this moment, Jin Tangfeng suddenly remembered something in his mind, and his pupils shrank, showing a look of shock.
He raised his head suddenly and looked in the direction of Jixia Academy outside Zhongqing City.
