Chapter 1369: Yanju

Although it is "difficult to live in Linzi", it is also indispensable that the mansions and mansions of the Nine Soldiers are indispensable.

The Xiu Mansion is located in the core area of ​​Jinxianfang. It was built under the supervision of famous craftsmen of the dynasty and is full of majesty.

Since Cui Zhu's assassination case, as the direct promoter of Cui Zhu's participation in the Yellow River Conference, Xiu Yuan, the commander of the prisoner and electric army, was dismissed from his post on the same day pending investigation.

Although he was not locked in the prison, he was still confined to his home and was not allowed to go out.

Unlike Cao Jie, who was under house arrest in Chen Cang by building a plank road in secret, Xiu Yuan was in a real prison, and his entire cultivation was locked up. Only considering the majesty of the commander-in-chief of the Nine Soldiers, he was not imprisoned.

However, several months have passed since the assassination of the emperor. There has been no breakthrough in the investigation of Xiuyuan. The emperor has not yet appointed a new commander of the Prison Electric Army, and the first general of the Prison Electric Army under Xiu Yuan is still temporarily leading this powerful army.

It was so delayed for a while.

On this day, a distinguished guest came to the Xiu family.

The one who came was Yan Tu, who was also the commander of the Nine Soldiers with Xiu Yuan, and was responsible for cutting off the Rain Army.

This person and Xiu Yuan are close friends, and it is known to both the government and the public. They both came from the same ordinary background. They both climbed up from the bottom of the army and reached the position of commander-in-chief of the Nine Soldiers. They quite sympathized with each other.

When the madman Xu Fang was still high-spirited, he wrote in an article - "A true man must travel a long way." The "distance" and "road" in this actually refer to Xiuyuan and the journey to hell, not the journey to the underworld. What a long journey.

Among the nine commanders, these two were the ones he admired the most. Of course, these two people may not know who Xu Fang is.

When Xiuyuan had just been dismissed pending investigation, Yan Tu also wrote nine letters in succession, urging the emperor to clarify that Xiuyuan was innocent. Later, they even went to Donghua Pavilion to remonstrate with the emperor!

The emperor was grateful for Yan Tu's love and righteousness, and personally kicked him out of Donghua Pavilion and fined him ten years...

In a very simply decorated quiet room.

Yan Tu, who was wearing armor, sat opposite Xiu Yuan, who was dressed in home clothes.

There is a bow and knife hanging on the wall in front, which makes Xiu Yuan's hair neatly reflected. His posture is upright and his back is straight. Although he lives at home, he still has a strong temperament.

At this time, tea was being brewed slowly. Gentleness and sharpness, these two temperaments were perfectly unified in him.

Yan Tu, who was sitting opposite him, had a completely different style. He has thick eyebrows, wide eyes, a big nose bridge, and thick lips, giving him a rather domineering temperament. The sitting posture is also very casual, with one foot half upright and one foot casually slumped.

"I said, stop cooking." Yan Tu glanced at the pot of tea and said impatiently: "No matter how good you make the tea, you still won't fit into the circle of Lao Qi people and won't gain their trust. What's the matter? mean?"

Xiu Yuan was unmoved, continued his work, and said slowly: "Why can't you gain trust?"

"How many months has it been?" Seeing his look like this, Yan Tu was furious: "If they believe you, why are you still sitting at home when you are the commander of the electric army?"

Xiuyuan smiled: "The matter hasn't been investigated yet, so of course I can't leave."

"Just because of those trash from the Capital Inspection Office!? If you can't find out in ten years, do you think you have to be imprisoned for ten years in Xiuyuan? If you can't find out in your lifetime, are you going to be locked up at home for the rest of your life?"

The water was already boiling. Xiu Yuan took the teapot off the small stove, slowly scalded the tea cup, and said casually: "It's better than being locked up in prison, right?"

Yan Tu sneered: "General Xiu can comfort himself like this, I didn't know before!"

Xiu Yuan sighed: "It was indeed my oversight to recommend Cui Zhu. It disturbed the Holy Master and threatened to slander the Emperor's name... I can still sit here and make tea with you. Brother Yan, I am satisfied."

"If you commit the crime of negligence, you should be dismissed pending investigation. We have nothing to say, but when will the investigation be carried out? There must be a charter?!" Yan Tu said dissatisfied: "There is no movement at all in Beiya. Zheng Shi is there every day You are hiding from me. But you Xiuyuan, a dignified person and the commander-in-chief of the Nine Soldiers, cannot leave this house! Day after day, day by day! You have made countless contributions to our Daqi. How can you accept this? Humiliation?"

Xiu Yuan shook his head: "Zhang Yong cried at the temple, and the eleventh prince fell out of favor. Cui Zhu assassinated the emperor, how can I be an exception?"

Yan Tu said angrily: "How can you and the eleventh prince be the same thing? How can these two things be confused?"

"Maybe, maybe not." Xiu Yuan opened the green bamboo can, used bamboo tweezers to take out the Cuibi tea leaves stored in it, carefully put it into the teacup, and said, "I believe everything has a price. The mistakes I made, I need to take responsibility. Your Majesty will remember the merits I have made... It wouldn’t be a bad idea to rest for a few years.”

"Your Majesty is naturally wise and powerful." Yan Tu said solemnly: "I'm afraid someone will deceive the Holy Spirit!"

"Since Your Majesty is so wise and powerful, how could he be deceived by others?" Xiuyuan completed the last process, then stretched out his hand and said: "Brother Yan, please use tea."

The night was blocked outside the door. Yan Tu looked at the heat in the teacup. Before he drank, he suddenly thought of a question -

At this moment, does the eleventh prince have time to drink tea?

…

…

"Cough cough cough... cough cough cough..."

Violent coughs wandered back and forth in the palace, penetrating this long night.

Feng Gu, the deeply wrinkled eunuch in charge of the Changsheng Palace, looked ahead with worry. The dark color in the eyes suddenly seemed far away and now close.

On the desk in front is a piece of snow-white rice paper, with an unfinished calligraphy on it.

The young prince, wearing a white fox fur coat, was sitting in front of the desk. He clenched his left fist and covered his lips with the back of his fist. His face turned red from coughing. In his right hand, he held a wolf-hair brush and hung it over the inkstone. A drop of ink was hanging on the tip of the brush, trembling with his cough, but it would not fall.

When the coughing gradually stopped, Feng Gu gently advised: "Your Highness, drink a bowl of medicine."

In the upper left corner of the desk, there was a white jade bowl with black liquid medicine in it, and a few wisps of hot air were lingering.

"I don't want to drink it anymore." Jiang Wuqi said with some difficulty.

He coughed a few more times before he calmed down.

He held the wolf-hair brush in one hand and turned his head to look out the window.

At some point, the faint light of the sky had pierced through the night.

"There should be news from Xingyueyuan." He said in a light voice.

As if to respond to his words, footsteps happened to sound outside the hall, and the sound was very fast.

Feng Gu slightly turned sideways, and the man had already stopped in front of the palace gate.

Soon, the footsteps faded away, and Feng Gu returned to the desk, but there was an extra letter in his hand.

"Your Highness, urgent military information."

"Read."

Feng Gu opened the letter and read it while reading: "The victory and defeat of Xingyueyuan has been decided. Jiang Qingyang returned from the sky and decided the outcome with one sword. The God of War and Dou'e Commander Yu Que have signed the "Xingyue Agreement" in Wanhe Temple."

After reading the urgent letter, although Feng Gu had no expression on his face, his eyes were full of respect and admiration.

In his early years, he was the confidant of Concubine Lei and served her. After Concubine Lei was assassinated, he took the initiative to ask for permission to serve Jiang Wuqi.

For so many years, it can be said that he watched Jiang Wuqi grow up day by day.

This nobleman who has attracted everyone's attention has suffered pain that ordinary people cannot imagine, and also has talents that ordinary people cannot reach.

Just like now.

He knew as much intelligence about Xingyueyuan as Jiang Wuqi, but he had no idea about the direction of the war, but Jiang Wuqi could accurately judge the time when the war would end.

If one did not have a deep understanding of the geniuses of the two camps and the entire battlefield situation, it would not be enough to make such a clear deduction of the war situation.

"I thought that it would be Chen Suan or Chong Xuansheng who would shine in this battle, but I didn't expect Jiang Qingyang to come back again." Jiang Wuqi paused here and said, "It seems that the abnormal movement of Yuheng Star is also related to him... Speaking of which, how did the Military Affairs Hall deal with his leaving the camp before the battle?"

"Repay him with merit." Feng Gu said.

Jiang Wuqi was silent for a moment and said, "I think the punishment of Zhuang State must have been emphasized in the "Xingyue Agreement."

Hearing this, Feng Gu flipped through the detailed provisions of the "Xingyue Agreement" on the back page of the letter - he knew the earlier treaty, so he had not read it carefully before.

He was stunned when he flipped through it. The treaty between the two hegemonic countries, and the treaty signed after such a war, every word must be carefully considered, and now it has been adjusted for Jiang Wang?

How terrible is this man's performance on the battlefield?

"Really..." Feng Gu was speechless for a moment.

"This gentleman will rise to prominence!" Jiang Wuqi sighed, smiled again, and turned his eyes back to the rice paper.

The drop of ink on the tip of the ink finally fell, causing a circle of ripples in the inkstone pool.

He picked up the pen and wrote the last few words in one stroke.

Then he put down the pen, stood up, and walked out alone.

Feng Gu hurried to follow, but was stopped by him with his palm raised: "You have worked hard for so many years. I will walk this road alone."

"Your Highness..." Feng Gu stood in place, his voice trembling.

The nobleman wrapped in white fox fur asked with a smile as he walked: "Your Majesty is the wise emperor, the God of War is the current golden beam, and Jiang Qingyang is the future pillar of the sky... The crown prince is kind and cautious, and has the appearance of a monarch; the third sister is unique in martial arts, and has a majestic aura; the ninth brother is smart and handsome, and has a noble aura... Then what about me? Who am I?"

He walked out with this question, without waiting for anyone's answer.

There was no need for an answer at all.

Feng Gu stood quietly in front of the desk, with a sad expression.

Who is the eleventh prince of Daqi?

He was the master of Changsheng Palace and the most beloved son of the current emperor. He acted majestically and was highly respected by the people. He was recognized by the court and the public as "the most like the current emperor" and the most powerful contender for the position of crown prince.

But because of a case of Zhang Yong crying at the temple, the court and the public were silent overnight.

The Fengxian Zhang family was the descendant of the meritorious officials who restored the country. Jiang Wuqi took Zhang Yong in for the sake of the reputation of the country. All the resources of the skills were not lacking in the slightest...but in the end, this was the result.

How could Feng Gu not be sad?

The nobleman who said "Towards Da Qi is to towards me" now asked himself - "Who am I?"

The sadness in Jiang Wuqi's words made an old man like him feel sad?

But looking at Jiang Wuqi's back, he could only remain silent.

Silently watching Jiang Wuqi walk out of the palace, silently rolling up the calligraphy that Jiang Wuqi had written, silently like a lonely ghost floating in the huge palace...

From the 39th year of Yuanfeng, wandering until now.

…

…

The highest mountain in Linzi City should be Yunwu Mountain.

On the plank road covered with clouds and mist, a figure wrapped in white fox fur slowly approached.

At that time, the sky was dim, and even though the mountain was so high, it was not transparent.

The thin figure walked in the clouds and mist, and although it was getting closer, it still felt very far away.

Although Tianxiang Yunge, one of the four famous pavilions in Linzi, was located here, Jiang Wuqi did not come here for the beauty.

Every time he came in the morning light, he climbed to the top of Yunwu Mountain and sat alone in the stone pavilion on the top of the mountain.

A pot of flower tea hidden in the clouds, sitting from sunrise to noon.

Since that time when he was naked in front of the Purple Palace and held the jade, he spent many days to develop this habit.

Rather than being an enjoyment, it is better to say that it is a self-punishment.

For Jiang Wuqi, who has suffered from cold poison since he was a baby, being in this high mountain and cold wind is like being tortured.

If he used to use these actions to show that the cold poison had no effect on him at all, to establish confidence for the people of the Changsheng Palace. Then now that he has fallen out of favor, what is the point of him coming here?

Can the heart of the emperor and the position of the crown prince be obtained by selling misery?

People like Jiang Wuqi should not do meaningless things.

Many people can't help but wonder--

Is this eleventh prince of the Great Qi Empire practicing in this cold place?

Or, is he here to find some clues?

In detail, Yunwu Mountain was the first place where Zhang Yong fought for Jiang Wuqi in public after joining Changsheng Palace. His opponent at that time was Jiang Qingyang, who is now famous all over the world.

At that time, Jiang Qingyang won with an eight-tone flame bird, and Jiang Wuqi forgave Zhang Yong for his defeat, and did not change his trust, which won the hearts of the people.

Speaking of which, Jiang Wang and Jiang Wuqi handled it very well at that time, and achieved a win-win result.

Who would have thought that it was Zhang Yong who made Jiang Wang suspected of treason later. It was also Zhang Yong who blocked Jiang Wuqi's way to the sky?

Things in the world are unpredictable, and it has come to this.

Whether it was Cui Zhu's assassination of the emperor or Zhang Yong's crying at the temple, it happened too suddenly, without any signs beforehand, and the landing point was extremely accurate. Although the troubles created were easily wiped out by the Emperor of Qi with the move of falling mountains, one thing that must be said is that the power of the Equal State was lurking deep enough and hidden enough in this country of the Eastern hegemony, so that these great things could be accomplished.

It's a pity that the people who were involved have been mixed up in the mud.

Now Jiang Wang has washed away his bad reputation and shined in the world. And what about Jiang Wuqi, the Lord of Changsheng Palace?

In the battle of Xingyueyuan, Qi Tianjiao defeated Jing Tianjiao, Qi's future defeated Jing's future, and the great Qi was greatly respected!

This is the time when the Great Qi Empire is in full bloom. What kind of mood does Jiang Wuqi feel when he walks on the plank road of Yunwu Mountain in the morning?

Feng Gu is not here today, and there are no other followers.

There are many strong people in Linzi City, but no one will monitor every place at all times.

So when a hunchbacked old man came towards him with a cane, it didn't seem to be surprising.

The old man walked very slowly, and it could be said that he was staggering.

But for someone as staggering as him, it was a very awkward thing to be able to walk on this shaky plank road.

Jiang Wuqi didn't seem to feel awkward and kept walking forward.

It was too early, and there was no third person on the plank road.

Those who stayed overnight on Yunwu Mountain were now on the soft couch of Tianxiang Yunge.

For a moment, there was only the mountain breeze, the cough that could not be stopped, and the sound of the cane knocking on the plank road——

"Hoohoo..."

"Cough cough cough..."

"Knock knock knock..."

The title of the volume is "I am like a god", and everyone should have imagined the excitement.

In order to meet your expectations, I will continue to work hard.

Work hard on fitness and writing.

I thought about the opening of the volume for a long time, and finally decided to start the story of this volume with the eleventh prince of Daqi.

This chapter is two-in-one.

As usual, I need a few days to get into the writing state, accumulate manuscripts for adjustment, and then start to pay off my debts.

See you tomorrow.
