Chapter 887: Pillow Wind

Inside the ancestral temple lined with oil lamps, the lights are bright, and the spiritual seats on the sacrificial altars make the hall feel eerie.

The flames flickered, Yanhuang Shang Jianxiong stood in front of the tablets of the ancestors of the Shang family, staring at them with a majestic expression, complex eyes, and praying to the ancestors in his heart.

He was very surprised when news of the Battle of Yanzhao came out. He didn't expect Zhao Guoneng to be defeated so quickly. After all, there were still millions of men and horses. In the end, Zhao Guo was strangled to death in just one battle. The country of Zhao is about to perish, yet the country of Yan has pushed Zhao into a desperate situation, forcing the country to perish!

One or two years ago, he would not have dared to imagine such a situation. At that time, it was the precarious situation of Yan Kingdom that made him sleepless and restless.

Although he has nothing to do with presiding over the battle to destroy Zhao, he is the emperor of Yan after all, and Yan made great achievements again under his rule. Today he came to tell the ancestors about it.

In a word, Yan Guo destroyed Zhao Guo in his hands!

Tian Yu, the Chief Internal Officer, stepped into the hall, walked to his side softly, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, let's rest."

Shang Jianxiong, who was staring at the tablet, answered irrelevant questions, and suddenly said, "Tian Yu, the achievement of opening up the territory, what Tai Shuxiong has always wanted to do but never did, I have done it!"

Listening to the meaning of these words, it seems that he is stronger than Tai Shuxiong!

Even though he was a close servant, Tian Yuwen couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this remark. When he found out that this person really dared to speak, he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart, does Zhao Zhigong have anything to do with you?

He even dared to guarantee that as long as there is a chance to curb the rise of Shang Dynasty Zong, this man would rather give up the achievement of destroying Zhao to drag Shang Chaozong back.

However, he also deeply understands that with such a difficult time, this His Majesty needs an affirmation of himself too much.

Moreover, the situation is changing rapidly. The aftermath of Niu Youdao's killing of Tong Mo has not yet passed. , the situation changed instantly!

Shang Dynasty Zong Jingxiao gathered the army and tore his face with the three major sects in public. After the news came, this place was really overjoyed.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that after such a thing happened, how could the three major sects allow Shang Chaozong to continue to be arrogant, and what would happen after the war can be imagined.

Nothing was done here, and the situation turned upside down in an instant, which was something no one expected.

...

The Tai Shuxiong that Shang Jianxiong was talking about was dancing swords on top of the pavilion at night under the stars and the sword was full of excitement.

The situation of the battle between Yan and Zhao came, Zhao Guo is about to fall? This matter made him inexplicably excited, because it proved that the situation of the countries that had been stalemate for many years was not unchangeable, and instantly ignited the blood in his heart, longing, looking forward to, dancing the sword to cheer, and swaying his pride!

"Your Majesty, the suzerain is here." Tao Lue, the chief executive, came to report suddenly, regardless of disturbing the emperor's pleasure.

Hearing that Taishu Fei Huafajia, the head of Qi Yunzong, was coming, Taishuxiong immediately lost his interest, and rushed to greet him without delay.

Before he could go down, a figure flashed and landed on the pavilion, it was Grand Uncle Feihua.

Tai Shuxiong greeted him immediately with sword and fist in his hands, "Uncle!"

Tao Lue also bent down.

Uncle Feihua hummed, glanced at the sword in his hand, and said calmly: "Cultivating? A Xiong, no one can master everything. You only need to concentrate on the state affairs of Jin, and the rest Of course someone will do it.”

Uncle Xiong smiled wryly in his heart, knowing that the other party had misunderstood, but he obediently answered yes, threw the sword to Tao Lue, and asked: "Uncle is here at this time, but what's the matter?"

"It's nothing important." Grand Uncle Fei Hua asked him, "I heard that the three major factions of the Zhao Kingdom have concentrated almost all their strength in order to defend against the enemy. The current Zhao Jing Palace is defenseless?"

Tai Shuxiong wondered why he asked this question, and he replied smoothly: "According to the information of the Black Water Terrace, it should be so. But it's really not to say that it's completely empty, and some monks are more or less defensive. Uncle Asking this personally, do you have any plans for the Zhao Palace?"

Uncle Feihua was noncommittal: "Ah Xiong, in order to prepare you for the battle, the Zongmen is very nervous, you know that."

Tai Shuxiong hurriedly said: "I am incompetent."

Grand Uncle Feihua: "Don't be fooled by these useless things. What your uncles mean is that Zhao's Imperial Palace is now a good time to strike. If nothing else, as long as you get Zhao's state-defending artifact, you can Get a good price."

Tai Shuxiong was puzzled and said: "Could it be that Uncle wants to rob Zhao's palace?"

Grand Uncle Feihua: "You have to do it early, if it's too late, you might be caught by someone else. You don't need to take care of this matter, the sect will handle it by itself. There is your black water platform network in the capital of Zhao State. What you have to do is to let that net figure out the initial situation of the sect's actions, after all, no one from the sect in Zhao's imperial palace has ever entered."

Tai Shuxiong hesitated and said: "Uncle, I am afraid that Heishuitai will not be able to understand the situation in Zhao Guo's palace thoroughly, just like this palace, even I dare not say that I can know everything about the situation in this palace." Also, just because the three major factions of the Zhao Kingdom have mobilized a large amount of power, the guard in the Zhao Kingdom's palace will only be more cautious, hiding and the like may be unavoidable, and it may not be possible to loot anything."

Uncle Fei Hua: "You just need to let the Blackwater Terrace lock Hai Wuji's location. As long as you can find Hai Wuji, what the three major sects of the Song Kingdom can do, there is no reason why Jin Kingdom can't do it."

...

Under the eaves of the house, Hao Yuntu looked up at Xingchen with his hands behind his back, occasionally heaving and sighing twice.

The queen walked over with her coat in her arms, put the robe on him with her own hands, and tried to ask, "What makes His Majesty feel so grateful?"

Hao Yuntu sighed, "I'm afraid Zhao Guo is about to end."

The queen was puzzled and said: "After Xiaoyue Pavilion raised troops, isn't it expected that Zhao's country will be destroyed?"

Hao Yuntu shook his head, "You don't understand. Since the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, the Seven Kingdoms have been in a stalemate for three hundred years. Once the Zhao Kingdom fell, the situation that had not changed for three hundred years will be leveraged, which means that the situation of great interests will be changed. There's been a change, and that's not a good sign."

The queen asked tentatively: "That is to say, Your Majesty does not want Zhao to perish?"

Hao Yuntu raised his hand and stroked her cheek lightly with the back of his finger, "This country of Zhao is like a beauty. I can't get it myself, and I don't want to watch others take it. If I want to sleep, it's best to sleep by myself."

"There's no such analogy." The queen spat slightly, of course she understood what the emperor meant, and naturally she didn't want others to get what Qi couldn't get.

However, he enjoyed how he treated himself like this, grabbed his hand, and seemed to want to share his worries, "Since your majesty doesn't want Zhao Guo to perish, is there no way to help Zhao Guo?"

Hao Yuntu: "Yan Kingdom has gained a favorable environment for attacking, and there is no need to worry about it. It is useless to persuade anyone. I am not willing to give up Zhao's fat. Anyway, there is Xiaoyue Pavilion in the west to block Qi and Wei. Xiaoyue Pavilion also I don't know what medicine I took wrongly, and I don't care about the threats from Qi and Wei. I just want to bring down Zhao. The most important thing is... No one thought that Zhao would be defeated so quickly. Now even if someone wants to There is nothing we can do to help the country of Zhao, and the Zhao army will not be able to survive the arrival of reinforcements."

"Unless the Misty Pavilion makes a move, but this is almost impossible. Or the other countries join forces and gather the top monks and experts from all countries to rush there urgently. There may be a glimmer of hope. However, Han and Song are too busy to take care of themselves and will not make a move. Qi Guohe The Kingdom of Wei wanted to help, but the chaos among the countries was like this, the Kingdom of Jin might already be like a wolf that smelled blood, I was afraid that Qi and Wei would be dragged down, so that they would pounce on them from behind and bite Chance."

"What's more, the premise for Qi and Wei to help each other must be that Zhao Guo has the ability to resist the enemy. Do they still have the ability to resist now? Even if Qi and Wei send some masters, they will not be able to change the overall situation of the battle."

...

Tianwei Mansion, before the flowers and under the moon, Xuanwei and Ximen Qingkong wandered side by side.

Seeing her profile glowing dimly under the moonlight, Ximen Qingkong really wanted to hug her and possess her.

But Xuanwei was worried about the consequences of Zhao's collapse.

The two stick to the bottom line and dare not overstep.

However, there were people in the palace who were extremely cheerful, and turned their heads upside down to their heart's content.

Inside the gauze tent, Concubine Chang Gui and Wei Jun Xuan Chengtian, who were resting in the clouds and rain, whispered together, blowing the wind beside the pillow.

After a long while, Xuan Chengtian sighed, "Look, recently, the emperor has let go of some things, the emperor is really not the kind of person you think, and she even wants to urge me to get familiar with it as soon as possible. I am tired."

Concubine Chang Gui complained on his chest, "The concubine is also thinking of His Majesty, but now it is the concubine who is soliciting rumors. Hmph, if I hadn't heard some news, the concubine would not be bothered to say such annoying things."

Xuan Chengtian was overjoyed, and poked her nose with his fingertips, "If you stay in the deep palace, what news can you hear, and what else I don't know."

Concubine Chang said coquettishly: "There are some things that my concubine dare not say, for fear of making His Majesty angry."

Xuan Chengtian became more and more interested, "Say, no matter what you said wrong, I will forgive you."

Concubine Chang Gui drew circles on his chest with her fingertips, "No matter how magnanimous your Majesty is, even my concubines dare not say it."

Xuan Chengtian raised his hand and "slapped" her back, "I order you to tell me, do you want to resist the order?"

Concubine Chang Gui seemed reluctant to obey, and finally whispered in his ear: "I heard that Huangjie and that Ximen Qingkong have long been in love with each other..."

After listening, Xuan Chengtian chuckled, "It's still a secret, that's all? Who doesn't know about the matter between sister Huang and that man, and you still need to tell me?"

"Is His Majesty not worried at all?"

"There's nothing to worry about. You can't let Huangjie be a widow for the rest of your life, right? It's a good thing to meet someone you like, just like I did to you, my concubine."

"Your Majesty, this matter is really different. The concubine is just a concubine, but the emperor is the daughter-in-law who holds the military and political power of the country. After the emperor and Ximen Qingkong are together, what if there is a child? Great power In the hands of Huangjie, who can guarantee that Huangjie will not hand over the power of defending the country to her children in the future? Is Huangjie willing to see her children bow their heads to others?"

"This... you're overthinking, the imperial sister is gradually returning the power to me."

"Is it really repaying the rights?"

"Is there still a fake?"

"The concubine has a way to easily test the true and false. Just like your majesty shouted, after taking over, I feel too much work and tired! But the real power should not just work, but control the people who work below, I don't know the concubine Right?"

"Roughly the same."

"It's His Majesty who is doing the work, but whose people are those working? They are all promoted by the Queen. Your Majesty wants to know if the Queen is sincerely willing to hand over power. You might as well use the most powerful power in the hands of the Queen, the military power." Your Majesty can pretend to remove Taiwei Nan Renyu's military power to test the reaction of the imperial sister. If the imperial sister does not object, then the concubine is talking too much. If she strongly opposes it, what is the concubine's mind and concubine dare not say more?"
