Chapter 419 The Song Emperor Is Destined to Die
"Qiao Feng."
In a courtyard near the water, Murong Fu looked at the portraits on the table of the Eight Immortals with a solemn expression.
The room is extremely luxuriously furnished.
But the combination is very strange, and many of the decorations are just expensive, a collection of materials, and very inconsistent with the surrounding layout.
Strange stones are paired with gold and silver, and a green glass bottle is wrapped with a tacky red gauze scarf.
It's not just the decor that's weird.
Murong Fu is also dressed the same now.
From his body, there is almost no trace of Nan Murong's previous demeanor, more like a rich man.
But this is not surprising. After having to evacuate Yanziwu and almost wandering around, he began to pay great attention to appearance and dignity.
He believed that as a descendant of Dayan, even the courtyard where he settled could not be casual.
He was taught to practice martial arts by his mother since he was a child. In addition, he looked down on the Han people, so he only learned some Chinese characters for the sake of learning martial arts, so he focused all his energy on martial arts.
Even if he was literate in order to learn martial arts, he would not read the martial arts secret books unless necessary, but would let his cousin read them to him.
He obviously wants to restore the country, but he only wants to know the history of Yan State, and he doesn't want to read historical books or military books.
Not to mention the layout of the courtyard and the way he dresses are so bad in his eyes that even those who know him find them disgusting.
Therefore, after his mother died and Abi and A'Zhu, who were nurtured by her mother, left, he changed from the handsome Nan Murong to a rich man.
Feng BoE and Bao BuTong mistakenly thought that the young master was pretending.
It can be said that it would be difficult for him to raise an army, let alone restore the country.
But he himself is very confident.
He regards the current Qiao Feng as his opponent.
"Master, can I take action first tomorrow?" Feng BoE couldn't help but say.
He always likes to find people to fight. The higher the opponent's martial arts, the better. Even if he loses, he is not discouraged, but enjoys it more.
But when faced with people who don't know how to use martial arts, they don't rely on force to oppress them.
Generally speaking, he was a good man. Although he was a subordinate of the Xianbei people and wanted to rebel, he was more counterproductive under Murong Fu, making Murong Fu offend many people.
"No, no," Bao BuTong retorted habitually, "There can be no mistakes in the assassination of Hun Jun tomorrow. Only the young master can stop Qiao Feng. Fourth brother, you should rest. There will be many masters for you to vent your anger tomorrow."
With his bad mouth, he will refute and attack anyone's words regardless of the situation. He can be said to be a holy body of innate strength.
He was also the one who held back Murong Fu in his great cause of rebellion, and was even more powerful than Feng Bo evil.
Even Yan Juntang Tomb, he once offended him with his mean words and was almost killed.
Murong Fu was lucky enough to have two of them, the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix, as his subordinates. It would be strange if his rebellion could succeed.
But in the past, there was still reliable Gong Yegan and Deng Baichuan to restrain him.
But now, Murong Fu's two most reliable men had already been lost in the battle at Mantuo Villa.
Only two generals, Bao BuTong and Feng BoE, were left who had nothing but loyalty.
"Brother Bao San is right," Murong Fu straightened his back when he heard Bao BuTong said that only he could compete with Qiao Feng, "Qiao Feng only learned the Twenty-eight Dragon Subduing Palms of the Beggar Clan. , Dog Beating Stick Technique, one of Shaolin’s Seventy-Two Special Skills, Demon Subduing Palm, the basic spell is still a flashy spell like the Guardian Charm.”
"It is indeed incomparable to me who is proficient in hundreds of martial arts, the magical skill of turning stars, and the basic spell is a strange spell such as the Transformation Curse."
"He is only four years older than me, so he has more time to practice martial arts."
"There is also reliable guidance from the teacher."
"Nothing like me, almost self-taught."
The more he talked about it, the brighter the light in Murong Fu's black and white eyes became more intense, and the confidence in his words gradually became abundant.
"Now that Qiao Feng occupies a high position and practices political power all day long, he is not as dedicated as I am to practicing martial arts."
"I'm definitely better than him!"
"No -" Bao BuTong's mouth was bald and he almost said it. Looking at the young master who seemed to be filled with anger, he quickly changed the subject, "I mean, young master, you are extraordinary. How can the pampered Qiao Feng be like that?" Comparable."
Under the scorching sun, among the golden wheat fields.
Qiao Feng, the most powerful person in the world and considered to be pampered all day long, is working there.
There seemed to be a dragon roaring in the wind of the palm, and the golden wheat waves were rolled up by it and fell into the sacks beside the field.
The steps and breathing you take when you walk to the pavilion after working also contain the most profound secrets of martial arts.
Bai Shijing, who was waiting respectfully at the edge of the field, quickly handed over the sweat towel and said, "Gang leader, in this situation, you'd better not -"
Qiao Feng waved his hand, "Why not help the people with their work? You can also exercise your body and practice martial arts."
"Elder Bai, I am the son of a farmer."
"Every day when I feel depressed, I feel much more relaxed when I come to the fields."
Even after he became the leader of the begging dynasty, even the Buddhist kingdom considered surrendering to him, and he was the truly most powerful person in the entire Song Dynasty, he still did not hesitate to talk about his origins.
"I used to like drinking to vent my anger."
"But when the beggar gang was called the Beggar Chao and the matters I dealt with were no longer limited to the world, I realized that drinking was not the best choice."
"It inspires my courage and makes me arrogant in battle, but at the same time, it also messes with my mind and makes my heart burst with malice."
"Now, what I need most is to calm down. Only when I calm down can I reflect on myself and make decisions."
"The gang leader is wise." Bai Shi's lens lowered even further.
He had an excellent personal relationship with Gang Leader Qiao, but Gang Leader Qiao had never said such intimate and heartfelt words, and he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
If you want to discuss the affairs of the gang, why don't you meet other elders.
If it's a private matter, why would you call him Elder Bai so bluntly.
A trace of grief flashed in Qiao Feng's eyes, "Why did you attack Madam Ma, Master Quan, and Elder Xu?"
"You——" Bai Shijing took a big step back in horror.
In his eyes, although Gang Leader Qiao was brave and resourceful, his bravery was greater than his resourcefulness.
And now, Gang Leader Qiao could actually find out that it was him who did it.
"It was me."
But he was not going to quibble.
His only mistake was killing Ma Dayuan, but Gang Leader Qiao did not mention him.
"Why?" Qiao Feng asked, "As the law enforcement elder of the Beggar Gang, you have always been impartial, why——"
"That whore deserves death!" Bai Shijing said angrily.
Power is the best aphrodisiac.
Seeing that Qiao Feng was only one step away from that position, the people in the Beggar Gang were extremely united, hoping that Gang Leader Qiao would get that position.
Bai Shijing was one of them, and he was also a die-hard supporter of Qiao Feng.
So, facing Kang Min's seduction, he refused.
He killed Ma Dayuan because Kang Min misled him and made him think that Ma Dayuan was going to reveal Qiao Feng's identity.
He killed Quan Guanqing and Elder Xu because of jealousy.
Although he rejected Kang Min, that is, Mrs. Ma, he was indeed tempted.
He was originally going to take it slow with Kang Min.
But then he found out that Quan Guanqing and even Elder Xu, an old man in his eighties, had become Kang Min's lovers.
So, his hidden narcissism and pride turned into anger, and he killed several people in anger.
"Whore?" Qiao Feng had a bad thought in his mind, "Could it be-"
"Yes, she betrayed Brother Ma." Bai Shijing nodded, "and she also tried to use her body as a bargaining chip to pull you down."
"Pull me down?" After hearing this, Qiao Feng's first thought was impossible.
After all, in this era, force is respected, and there is almost no second choice in the world for the position of the leader of the Beggars' Sect except him.
How could a woman like Kang Min have the courage to do this?
How could Elder Xu and Quan Guanqing, who was famous for his wisdom, agree?
What he didn't know was that Elder Xu and Quan Guanqing in this world were indeed not prepared to agree, even if they knew Qiao Feng's background.
In the current situation, even if Qiao Feng was revealed to be a Khitan, everyone from the current emperor to ordinary people would only believe that he was a Han Chinese.
With Qiao Feng, the Beggars' Sect is the Beggar Dynasty.
With Qiao Feng, the Emperor of Song is the emperor with power.
Elder Xu and Quan Guanqing just wanted to enjoy it without rejection out of some dark psychology.
The two of them were prepared to wait until they were tired, or when Kang Min wanted to make trouble, they would kill him and destroy the evidence that Qiao Feng was a Khitan.
It was just unlucky that they ran into Bai Shijing, who was jealous and broke his defense, and the two who were ready to be loyal ministers lost their lives.
"I didn't believe it at first." Bai Shijing sighed, "but I saw it with my own eyes. I also have evidence."
"Although the leader of the Quan helm was smart and didn't leave any substantial evidence, Elder Xu didn't."
"Elder Xu regarded this as an honor and left the letters they exchanged. The wife of the deputy leader of the Beggars' Sect actually fell in love with an old man like him."
"Then I won't pursue this matter for now." Qiao Feng said, "You can send someone to deliver the evidence later."
Based on his understanding of Bai Shijing, Bai Shijing's words were at least 80% true.
This makes sense in theory. For the sake of Brother Ma's face, Bai Shijing killed Madam Ma and the person who committed adultery with her, and there was a reasonable reason.
"Did you arrange it for Dahu?"
"Yes." Bai Shijing knelt down quickly, sweating profusely.
"What a fool." Qiao Feng said, "He is from the official family (the mainstream title for the emperor in the Song Dynasty)."
"You——" Bai Shijing noticed that Qiao Feng's words were wrong.
What he said next proved his guess.
"As for Da Hu, I found a reason to send him to guard the venue of the conference."
"You also want to--" Bai Shijing was ecstatic at first, and then puzzled, "But why--"
The most unquestionable thing in the world is Qiao Feng's loyalty to Emperor Song.
Before Qiao's martial arts reached the peak, he had blocked several fatal crises for Emperor Song.
The most dangerous one was the killing curse of Tang Mu, whose power that could finally solve the spell of Emperor Song's rebirth was blocked by Qiao.
This made Qiao just a hair's breadth away from death. If Qiao had not completely comprehended the truth of the patron saint spell in life and death, merged with it, turned into a dragon and resurrected, Qiao would have died long ago.
There is still a lightning-shaped scar on his forehead.
"I just realized what I really want to protect." Qiao Feng said in a deep voice, "It's the common people of this land, not the so-called government that wants to sell them out."
"Sell out?" Bai Shijing immediately thought of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun that he had just recovered, "What is this tyrant going to do?"
"Checks and balances." Even a man of iron will like Qiao Feng couldn't help crying, "The government trusts me, but not you and Shaolin. He plans to sell the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to gain the support of the Liao Kingdom, introduce external forces, remove my wings, and use me more confidently."
"This tyrant!" Bai Shijing was furious, "Boss, can I kill him myself!"
If Bajier heard it, he would definitely understand Bai Shijing's situation at this time.
This is just like when Guo Jun's men heard that in order to defeat compatriots with different political views, Yingzhou was to be surrendered to Nihong, and Nihong's people were allowed to massacre on the land of Yingzhou.
If you are a Han Chinese, you can't stand it.
"Shi Jing," Qiao Feng shook his head, "I didn't arrange for regicide. I just let it go."
"That's it?" Bai Shijing couldn't help but question, "This kind of beast is not worthy of being a king at all."
"Yes." Qiao Feng nodded, "You are not worthy of being a king at all. But we just need to let it go. According to my investigation, not only Nan Murong, Yan Jun Tang Tomb and other expected characters took action, but also Liao Liao. national power.”
"Retribution, what a retribution!" Bai Shijing laughed loudly, "You still wanted to cooperate with others, but in the end they wanted to kill you directly."
At the foot of Shaoshi Mountain, there is a bamboo house that walks automatically in mid-air.
Wu Yazi just brought back the news that some people wanted to murder the emperor at the conference.
As Dongxie's daughter, Huang Rong asked this question, "Brother Lin, do you think the emperor will die? If he dies, it might be a good thing. I have long wanted to see an emperor born from an ordinary person."
She didn't know that there would be an emperor who started out as a beggar in the future, and she looked forward to the emergence of the first emperor who grew up among the people and knew the sufferings of the people.
"Yes." Li Lin said.
If the emperor does not die, he is ready to take action.
Although it is a mess at the foot of the mountain now, there is also a lot of mixed information.
After peeling away this information, the image of an emperor who only knows checks and balances and makes troubles emerges clearly.
"Brother Li," Wang Yuyan, who had some political literacy because her cousin wanted to rebel, asked, "Why do those people want to kill the emperor? If so, who else can compete with Gang Leader Qiao for that position."
"They should protect the emperor, so that Gang Leader Qiao will always be the leader of the Beggar Gang."
"Because the emperor himself is not a mascot and does not do human affairs." Li Lin said, "But he can command Qiao Feng and the power of the Beggar Clan. Originally, if he did not do anything, in the era of curses, Jianghu sects would Be able to properly be the lord and emperor of your own place.”
"A person like your cousin can also find a remote area to safely become king."
"After all, Qiao Feng also knows that now is no better than in the past. He can only maintain law and order, justice, and delegate other powers."
"But the emperor was dissatisfied with this kind of feudal system and wanted to re-centralize power."
"Under his coercion, the beggar gang became a beggar dynasty, and the beggar gang's sub-rudder replaced the county government."
"The Buddha Kingdom is just something he deliberately set up to compete with the Qi Dynasty."
"Those sects that have lost power will naturally be dissatisfied with the emperor and hope to return to that era of freedom."
"What about the Liao Kingdom?" Wang Yuyan asked, "Why does the Liao Kingdom want it? Wouldn't it be better for the emperor to be alive?"
"In this regard, the emperor took the blame for the Beggar Clan," Li Lin said. "The Liao Kingdom believed that this was the emperor's order."
"In short, if it weren't for Qiao Feng, this dog emperor would have died long ago."
"Then shall I kill him?" Wu Yazi, who turned into a crow again, asked.
"If you want to take action, let me do it." Li Lin said, "I have never done anything like killing the emperor."
