Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Sun Moon Fenghua!Xiling Duhu Yao Mubai was already cold in his hands and feet at the moment.
In any case, he didn't think that behind the incident, there was such an amazing conspiracy.
After Xiling was controlled by three aristocratic families, the attitude of the imperial court towards Xiling has been divided into two factions.
One faction is headed by General Black Feather, always thinking about reclaiming Xiling's ownership of the empire, while the other faction once felt that the empire was burdened with a heavy burden after the civil strife, and there is really no need to spend too much manpower and financial resources on Xiling.
As long as Xiling does not fall into the hands of the Wutuo people, is controlled by the Xiling family, belongs to the Tang Dynasty in name, and can serve as a buffer zone between Wutuo and Wutuo, this is not a bad thing.
It is precisely because of this that Yao Mubai, the protector of Xiling, is almost a nominal decoration.
But because of the existence of General Black Feather, the Empire did not completely abandon Xiling.
Naturally, the three families of Xiling knew that the generals had always wanted to return to Xiling. If Xiling was peaceful, it would be fine. Whenever there was a turbulent situation, the court would intervene, and once there was a war between swords and soldiers, the generals Definitely lead the army out immediately.
The Fan family wanted to control Xiling, so they had to face the other two great families. Because of the existence of the generals, even if the Fan family really had strong strength, they would not dare to attack the other two families on the bright side.
But the final plan was to use the Yuwen family to get rid of the Zhen family, together with the swordsman, the general immediately left the customs, and then use the general to frighten the Yuwen family, causing the Yuwen family to collapse instantly.
In the name of assisting the general to return to Xiling, the Fan family hid behind the scenes, concealing their true intentions, and only waited until today to finally reveal their true colors.
Starting from the use of the White Wolf’s Rebellion to forge secret letters, to today’s troubles at the birthday banquet, the whole plan is step by step, one after another, which is really insidious.
"The general is wrong." Bai Jingzhai shook his head and said: "Today's banquet is definitely not to murder the general, on the contrary, it is to worship the general!"
"Worship the general?"
Bai Jingzhai smiled and said: "The general thought we let you out, really just wanting you to take down Yuwen's house? Wrong, the general is one of the best generals in Datang, and we ask you to leave the customs. We want you to be with us. Achieve great things together."
The general looked at Fan Ziqi and was silent, with a hint of irony on the corners of his lips.
"The saint should have received my zhezi." The general said slowly: "In fact, the saint had promised a long time ago, but if there is a disturbance in Xiling, the Three Thousand Longevity Army can immediately be transferred to Xiling. Since Shiqing Pei has been taken The North Courtyard has transferred Xiling, so the Longevity Army will soon be transferred." Staring at Fan Ziqi's eyes, he asked: "I would like to know, why do you think you can swallow Xiling?"
Fan Ziqi nodded slightly and said: "The Longevity Army was so powerful that the people of Datang were in awe of this soldier and horse. However, many people seem to have forgotten that the reason why the Longevity Army was so famous is not how much it fought. Victory, but in the bloody battle with the Wutuo people, they fought to the end, it was the remnants of the guard army." Fuxu smiled and said: "There are three soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, the horse majestic, the southern Xuanjia, and Kyoto. Shence and the Northern Longevity, with all my bluntness, the three elite soldiers, Changsheng can only be at the bottom. Whether it is military exploits or strength, it is far from being comparable to the Xuanjia Army and Shence Army."
"The Longevity Army is not the strongest soldier, but it is more than enough to destroy the Fan family." The general's eyes were like ancient times.
Well ordinary, with old fine lines slowly dangling: "You can think of the longevity army will quickly enter the pass to calm the chaos after the army is raised, but you don't care, naturally you have already thought out a countermeasure."
Fan Ziqi smiled and said: "As long as the general is with us, the imperial court will not even dare to send the longevity army. They will worry that the longevity army who exits the pass will most likely turn their guns and point their spear at Kyoto."
The general said "Oh" and asked, "Why do you think I want to rebel with you? How come you are confident?"
"Because the general is a loyal and righteous person." Fan Ziqi said sternly: "It is also because the general is a real Datang soldier."
A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of the general’s lips: “In that case, you should know that this general will never be with you.” He slowly stood up and said: “The general will now go out of the gate with the night crow, I I want to see, how do you stop me?"
Without hesitation, he said solemnly: "Support each other and follow me." He moved away.
Yao Mubai and Pei Shiqing and other officials immediately followed. Before the general came to the door, Fan Ziqi had coldly said, "Does the general want to abandon Datang?"
The general stopped, turned his head, and looked at Fan Ziqi with a strange look.
"Since you are a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty should be your allegiance." Fan Ziqi slowly stood up and stared at the general: "The saint on the Kyoto dragon chair is the rebel who usurped the rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty. It is a disaster. The witch of the world, the real Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is not in Kyoto, but in Xiling."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was surprised, and the hall, which was originally very silent, whispered for a while and became noisy.
The general frowned.
"Does the general not believe it?" Fan Ziqi asked.
Yao Mubai glanced at the general and saw that the general looked cold, and couldn't help saying: "The first emperor Dezong died, leaving only two princesses. No prince inherited the throne. It is for this reason that the first emperor's edict was passed on to the holy queen. ..... It is also the saint of today, and the saint is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, so how come there are others?"
Fan Ziqi smiled faintly and looked at the general and said, "General, if the blood of the first emperor is alive and he is a prince, is he eligible to inherit the throne?"
The general looked even more solemn, and finally he said: "The first emperor has no prince."
"The general is wrong. The first emperor has at least one prince alive, and he is in Xiling." Fan Ziqi said sternly, "Even in this hall."
There was another commotion all around, everyone looked at each other, not knowing which Prince of Tang Dynasty was mentioned by Fan Ziqi.
The general turned around, and the tiger's eyes swept across everyone present.
"If the blood of the first emperor is here, and he is the orthodox heir to the empire, should the general be loyal?" Fan Ziqi held his back with one hand, staring at the general and asked: "The general is a loyal and righteous person. Do your best?"
The general did not speak, but Yao Mubai couldn't help asking: "Who is the blood of the first emperor you mentioned? The first emperor has only two princesses, when did there be an extra prince?"
Fan Ziqi took two steps back, bowed slightly, and under everyone's attention, he saw the person pushing Bai Jingzhai's wheelchair walking forward slowly.
He was a burly figure, steady steps, with a light smile on his face, stepped forward a few steps, and said to the general: "General Jiumu
Da Ming, I'm so happy to see you today."
Everyone's eyes focused on this person instantly.
Previously, this person pushed out of the wheelchair, and everyone focused on Bai Jingzhai, thinking that this person was a servant of a famous servant, so naturally no one paid attention to him.
Seeing him walking out at this time, I was surprised and looked carefully, and saw that this man had a face with freckles, thick moustaches, almost covering half of his face, but his eyes were huge, like copper bells, just because the freckles were too beard. Bushy, his age is hard to recognize, but he is estimated to be around thirty.
The general also looked at this person up and down, with a grim expression, and asked: "Who are you?"
"I am a llama." Qiuyan said: "but my surname should be Li, and the real name should be Li Tuo!"
The surname Li is the national surname, but the surname of the saint is Xiahou, but Li is no longer a royal surname.
Yao Mubai shook his body and said, "Are you the so-called royal blood?"
Shiqing Pei sneered: "Master Yao, if the Fan family wants to rebel, they always have to erect a flagpole. I don't know where to find someone from where they pretend to be the blood of the first emperor, so they boast that he is the prince of the empire. Such tricks, It's so laughable and generous."
"Yes." Yao Mubai knows the importance of this. If people really think that the person in front of them is the blood of the first emperor, it will set off a huge storm. Don't say that this person's origin is unknown, even if he really has a relationship with the first emperor, then He must not admit the identity of this person, and sneered: "Hou Lord Fan, you have rebelled against the court and rebelled against it. This is a heinous crime. Now it is even more heinous to find someone to impersonate the prince of the empire."
Li Tuo ignored the words of Yao Mubai and Pei Shiqing, and took out an object from his arms. Someone on the side could see clearly, it was a yellow jade pendant.
He walked forward slowly, still a few steps away from the general, two of them twisted the jade pendant and stringed ropes, shining the yellow jade pendant in front of the general.
The jade pendant shook slightly, but it was a double dragon jade pendant, glowing with a faint yellow light under the light.
The general looked like a torch, but he could see clearly. He saw the jade pendant decorated with double dragons. The dragon head is in front, the head is slightly raised, the corners of the mouth are wide, and the lips are upturned. The double dragons guarding from the left and right to the two sides are symmetrical and neat, and there is no lack of agility. Interesting, exquisite carving, full of royal majesty.
The general's eyes twitched slightly.
"The imperial double dragon jade pendant was made by the Imperial Makers in the Palace." Li Tuo slowly said: "It is needless to say its craftsmanship. Apart from the Imperial Makers in the Palace, the folks rarely see such crafts, and the Imperial Makers are skilled in the art. There is a unique feature, even if the folks can imitate it, the imperial jade can be distinguished at a glance. The jade pendant is made of mountain topaz. Generals and you should know that the mountain topaz is also known as the emperor of jade, which is rare and precious. As early as the previous dynasty, the mountain topaz was designated as the royal jade, and the people naturally could not circulate it. Even the high-ranking nobles must not use the mountain topaz."
Mountain topaz is rare in the world, and most people have never seen it, let alone use it.
Li Tuo just took out the double dragon jade pendant. Many people were still a little surprised. They wondered how this jade pendant had such a color and luster. Only then did they know that it was made of mountain topaz.
"The double dragon jade pendant made by the imperial topaz of mountain material can only be worn by the emperor." Li Tuo stared at the general and said, "Can this jade pendant prove my identity?"
