Chapter 29 The first assistant hides from the world and the strong general takes refuge
In this cold little courtyard that was completely isolated from the Yunqin Court and the world of practitioners, Lin Xi was stunned for a moment to understand what changes had taken place.
Previously, Chen Feirong discovered that he had broken through to the level of a national scholar, and when she lamented the speed of his cultivation, she comforted him that breaking through was always something to be happy about.
He was indeed truly happy.
But at this moment, he understood what changes had taken place in his ability, and he felt even happier.
Because of this change, he instantly felt that he had become stronger. It seemed that a new force was injected into his still fragile body, letting him know that he would be able to get out of this yard faster and do something faster.
Things you must do.
He stretched out his fingers again and started writing on the smooth tabletop in front of him.
Under the surge of his soul power, sawdust flew on the hard sandalwood table, and each stroke appeared like a flying sword.
"Zhao Ke is wearing a tassel, and Wu is frosty and snowy. The silver saddle shines on the white horse, and it rustles like a shooting star. Kill a person in ten steps, and leave no trace for a thousand miles. When the matter is over, he brushes off his clothes and hides his body and his name..."
While writing such a poem, he sometimes softly shouted the word "go back" in his heart... Therefore, in the end, only a few words of Li Taibai's chivalrous journey, which no one in the world knew about, were left on the table.
No one will understand the true meaning of these few words. In the future, no one will be able to understand Lin Xi's mood at this moment from these few words on the table.
In Lin Xi's mind, after he used this special ability again and again, the "green roulette" finally slowly dimmed and became dead.
But Lin Xi knew that at this time tomorrow, this "green roulette" would rise normally like the sun.
He also felt very clearly that although there was no change in the ten-stop time, being able to use it little by little represented more opportunities...more powerful abilities.
…
…
No matter how the wind and rain blow in the court, no matter how tense the situation on the front line is, for the vast majority of ordinary Yunqin people, their lives have not changed in this year. Just like the rebellion of Wen Ren Cang Yue, the distant
The fact that the old emperor of Da Mang finally passed away only gave them more things to talk about after dinner.
Time flies so fast. It has been nearly a month since seventeen shops specializing in rice and noodles business, headed by Tianfeng Yuzhu, announced the joint venture, and the New Year will be here in three days.
In an old house, a middle-aged scribe and several old servants were hanging some red lanterns and long strings of chili peppers to increase the joy of the New Year.
Looking at the expression and posture of this middle-aged scribe at this time, people who did not know him would only think that he was a down-and-out scholar who had failed to pass the exam for a long time. They would never have imagined that his reputation and prestige among the people were still far beyond the famous people in the past.
Zhou Shoufu.
Just as the middle-aged scribe was hanging a bunch of dried red peppers in his hands, an old man with gray hair wearing a black leather robe and a tall middle-aged man with thick eyebrows came from the outside without a concierge.
Walking in through the front door, just taking a look
Seeing this situation, the gray-haired old man in a black leather robe immediately knelt down to Zhou Shoufu and cried bitterly: "The backbone of the country, the talents of the world, have come to this. Wen Xuanshu has been nepotistic, and together with the southern expedition, the country is in catastrophe."
, is already here."
Before he could greet him, he saw the old man lying on the ground and crying bitterly. Zhou Shoufu changed his face slightly, and immediately rushed to him, helped the old man up, smiled bitterly and persuaded in a low voice: "Mr. Sun, since you are here, why bother?
Adding to the sadness. Moreover, the Wen family was originally in charge of civil affairs, and now he has succeeded as the chief assistant, controlling the defense of Zhongzhou, with power in the government and the public. Mr. Sun serves in the court. If the words of reprimand Wen Xuanshu reaches his ears, but
Very disadvantageous.”
This old man's name was Sun Yangtao. He was originally a member of the Department of Justice and was famous for his integrity. At this time, he had been promoted to the deputy head of the Department of Justice. The civil servant Liu Xueqing who was involved in the dispute between Lin Xi and the military in Donggang Town was him.
Together with several Qingliu people, he valued him and supported his shortcomings. This upright old man also knelt down in the Jinluan Palace when the emperor first mentioned the Southern Expedition and wrote a letter of admonishment in blood.
, wanted the emperor to cancel the idea of expedition to the south, and took advantage of the temporary peace of the Dragon Snake Border to build up the national strength. But then the emperor continued to exert force, and the situation suddenly changed, but there was no way to recover. Because he knew Zhou Shoufu very well.
With his talents and character, seeing such a person being idle at home and wasting his time made him feel so angry and sad that he couldn't control himself at all.
"I am already old and I will not live for many years. Am I still afraid that Wen Xuanshu will not be able to deal with me?" After hearing Zhou Shoufu's persuasion, the tearful old man couldn't help but said forcefully.
"With the character of the old man, of course a person's life and death have been put aside long ago." Zhou Shoufu stroked the back of the grieving and angry old man with his hand, and said with a bitter smile: "But if Yun Qin is missing the old man, he is also missing a wall.
Qiang, sir, you don’t think about yourself, you also have to think about the people of Yunqin whom you care most about.”
Sun Yangtao felt his words and cried bitterly and was speechless for a while.
"grown ups."
The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, who was unusually tall and tall, bowed and saluted. Only then did he say in a cold voice: "Since you live in seclusion here, you always need someone to take care of you. I'm just waiting for you to come here. I'm just worried about disturbing you. The rest
People are just waiting outside."
"No need."
Zhou Shoufu calmly shook his head, looking at this middle-aged man with thick eyebrows who gradually raised his eyebrows and exuding a fierce aura, he sighed softly: "I am not in the court, the Holy Father and Wen Shoufu may make you suffer a lot of grievances.
, if you feel inconvenienced, you can leave Zhongzhou, but don’t gather here with me... Under this kind of situation, it is best not to fight, hide in the world, and be content with the situation."
The thick-browed middle-aged man's face was as dark as water, and his voice became increasingly angry: "I don't understand what you mean, sir. Do you want us all to retire and return to our hometowns, and think about being farmers and fishermen?"
Zhou Shoufu smiled bitterly and explained in a low voice: "The Holy Lord has become suspicious of me, and he is now using the power of the Wen family and the Leng family to suppress the Hu family and the Yuhua family. This is the time when he is trying his best to support Wen Xuanshu.
, after the death of the prince, his temperament has changed a lot. Even if my subordinates just gather here and do nothing, he will probably suspect that we are dissatisfied.
, to start the trouble secretly. So the best way at this time is to learn from the practices of some ancient sages, don’t ask, don’t argue, wait quietly. In my opinion, Mr. Sun, don’t be impatient. Expedition to the south next spring
Once the war breaks out, it won't take too long for the situation to change. At that time, the Holy Lord may naturally understand that Qingluan Academy and the Elders Association are not just suppressing and balancing, but also helping."
The imposing middle-aged man with thick eyebrows was silent for a moment, and finally nodded. He said no more, but bowed again and sighed.
Most of them, the practitioners and disciples who follow Zhou Shoufu, only think about the honor and disgrace of Zhou Shoufu and themselves, but Yun Qin veterans like Sun Yangtao think about more. When they heard Zhou Shoufu's words, the old man's face became paler.
He said in a trembling voice: "Shoufu Zhou, do you think that Yunqin, our country, will be defeated in the southern expedition?"
"Since he is determined to take this opportunity to completely get rid of the situation where Qingluan Academy and the Elders Association are superior to the emperor, the Holy One naturally wants to win this war without using the power of Qingluan Academy and the Nine Elders as much as possible. But Wen Ren Cang Yue
It was proven in Biluoling that he was much more powerful than the outside world thought. The Damang army he led was more difficult to deal with than the Dahuangze cave barbarians.
Zhou Shoufu nodded silently and said: "Moreover, Thousand Demon Cave and Purgatory Mountain have been unified. With the absolute support of Purgatory Mountain, the opposition forces in Thousand Demon Cave and Damang Court have also been eliminated one by one. Wenren Cang Yue has a stable
With the favorable terrain in the rear, the chances of victory are extremely high. I predict that Yun Qin will be defeated in the end, but I don’t know how heavy the price will be for this defeat."
Sun Yangtao had previously thought that Yun Qin's army would be unfavorable, but he did not expect that Zhou Shoufu would be so sure. For a moment, his mind was even more agitated, and he opened his mouth but could not speak.
"If you really regard me as your friend, don't give advice to the Holy One after you leave me. There is no use in trying to do something that is already inevitable." Zhou Shoufu looked at this old man and said,
But he said very solemnly: "Sir, please don't mention any words in front of the Holy Father that sending troops will lead to defeat. It must be done here.
Before sending troops to the southern expedition, the Holy One believed that your words would damage morale and would impose severe punishments. Even if you were really defeated in the future, he would probably become angry and be even more unfavorable to you. In this case, we might as well just wait.
, when the Holy One realizes that something is wrong and wants us to contribute again, we will not care about ourselves for Yun Qin."
Sun Yangtao felt that the country's crisis was approaching, but he was powerless. After much deliberation, he could only listen to Zhou Shoufu's words. On this supposedly festive day, he was still very sad.
…
In the distant ancient country of Tang and Tibet, the climate is not as cold as in the Yunqin Empire.
On the northern border of the ancient Tang and Tibet Kingdom, in a semi-sand desert full of black forests, an army with giant white elephants as mounts was stationed.
This army is the strongest army in the entire ancient Tang and Zang Kingdom, but this army has always been loyal to Xiao Xiang, the Tang Zang Emperor's uncle who died at the hands of Gu Xinyin.
On the day when some of Zhou Shoufu's subordinates and retainers gathered at the old house where Zhou Shoufu lived in seclusion, they received news that they should go home and live in seclusion. One man was carrying a huge bow box on his back and wearing a dress that was constantly emitting Buddha's light.
The general in bronze armor and his entourage arrived at the military camp of the Elephant Army.
"General Geng, why did you come to our Elephant Army?" The top general of the Elephant Army, a mysterious man wrapped in a white robe embroidered with gold, sat on a head taller than a man-eating monitor lizard.
The white elephant made a very loud sound and shouted at the uninvited guest.
"Fengxuan and Qingluan Academy have joined forces... I'm not a general. I'm just a poor man who was abandoned by Tang Zang." The general wearing bronze armor smiled tiredly.
The top general of the Divine Elephant Army glanced at the huge bow box that the general was carrying behind his back and figured out what was in the bow box. He was silent for a moment and nodded: "The Divine Elephant Army welcomes you.
