Chapter 1397: Elder Ye Ji (1)

What was supposed to come had come. The director was right. All the variables would change this winter … Xu Qi ‘an sighed in his heart.

He wasn’t surprised by this result at all. After all, he had been mentally prepared for this day.

Yunzhou would rebel sooner or later, and it would be this winter. So for Xu Qi ‘an, this news was as natural as the change of the sun and the moon.

‘I’ll quickly complete the agreement with the Nine-Tailed Fox and remove the demon sealing nails as much as possible. Only then will I be able to recover my strength and deal with more changes. Hmm, I wonder what Fu Xiang’s true form looks like, is it beautiful?”

Xu Qi ‘an took out a plan from the fragment of the nether world Book, on which his goals were clearly planned.

“We’ll have to put aside the matter of resurrecting the Lord of Wei. In any case, I can’t find the singing gold stone now, and without it, I can’t refine the soul beckoning Banner’s main pole ……”

He made appropriate adjustments to the plan, then waved at mu nanzhi.

“Let me see the” Dafeng geographical record.””

Mu nanzhi had bought the Dafeng geography book herself. Like a woman who was going on a trip, she had bought a geography book in high spirits and would open her eyes to look at the relevant folk customs and specialties wherever she went.

“The southern border is also within Da Feng’s territory.”

Mu Nanxi mumbled in confusion. She took out a crumpled book from her small bag and threw it over.

He didn’t care about his books at all … Xu Qi ‘an reached out to catch it and opened the ” geography of Dafeng. the reason why he wanted to read this book was that it drew a very simple map of the Central Plains.

It was so simple that the thirteen continents of Da Feng became irregular squares.

“Yunzhou is near the sea, and the northern region is mostly connected to Qingzhou. If Xu Pingfeng wanted to use Yunzhou as his base to attack the capital, he had to take over Qingzhou.

“If the Imperial court wants to gain some time to catch its breath, the best way to deal with it is to keep the rebels in Yunzhou.

therefore, the gathering of the influential people will be held in Qingzhou.

In the Royal study.

Emperor Yongxing straightened his back and listened to the quarrels of the ministers in the hall.

When the news that the royal family from 500 years ago claimed the throne in Yunzhou was sent back to the capital, the entire court was shaken.

On the other hand, the Dukes ’emotions were very stable. After all, they had long been mentally prepared. If not for the cold disaster, the Imperial court would have taken the initiative to attack the South.

But to the entire officialdom, and even to the people, it was a severe warning.

Since the end of the capital inspection year, Da Feng had experienced one major event after another, including the destruction of the witchcraft cult’s Army, the death of the previous emperor, the cold disaster, and now the rebellion in Yunzhou.

Even the common people realized that the world was not peaceful, and chaos was imminent, causing great panic.

As for the scholars and the low-ranking officials of the capital, their panic and indignation were even greater.

In the past few days, the students of Jing high school had held many cultural meetings, inviting friends to discuss the matter of the rebels in Yunzhou and the situation in the Central Plains.

“Your Majesty, the rebels of Yunzhou have become the Emperor and shocked the entire court. However, few people know about the Buddhism supporting the rebels, but paper can’t cover fire, which is a great hidden danger.”

The Ministry of War said in a low voice.

Everyone’s expression was grave. Their former allies had turned against each other and become enemies. This would undoubtedly intensify the panic.

The power of Buddhism was a fact that even ordinary people could deeply understand.

A group of rebels who claimed to be descendants of the imperial family from 500 years ago claimed to be the Emperor in Yunzhou and gained the support of Buddhism. If this news were to spread, it would cause the world to doubt the Imperial court and the imperial family of Da Feng.

Although such doubts would not cause any problems for the time being, at most, there would be criticism in the market and in the countryside. However, once the situation was unfavorable, these criticisms and doubts would ferment.

When the commoners joined the enemy, they would not have any psychological burden.

After all, they were still Da Feng’s people and had even thrown their lot in with the Orthodox.

In the future, if the rebels really overthrew the current imperial court, the people might not even be able to raise the banner of restoring Da Feng.

Since ancient times, all instigators and instigators had paid great attention to having a good cause.

This was the reason.

The Minister of Justice said in a deep voice, ”

the only way is to stop the spread of rumors. Anyone who creates panic, spreads rumors, and talks about this matter will be imprisoned and punished.

Such a method only treated the symptoms but not the root of the problem. The rumors had to be suppressed.

Countless examples in history had proven that rumors were the best weapon to attack the heart. If left unchecked, it would be the same as handing the knife to the enemy.

Although the officials felt that the Minister of Justice’s plan was a bad one, it was also the best one at the moment.

When Emperor Yongxing heard this, he smiled and said, ”

“There’s no need to do this. It’s better to disperse than to block. Since paper can’t cover the fire, then we’ll take the initiative to make this matter public. This can show the confidence of the court. Let my people know that I’m not afraid of Buddhism, and the Imperial court is not afraid of the Western regions.”

This … The Dukes looked at each other, thinking that this was not in line with the emperor’s steady and conservative style of doing things.

The Minister of Justice frowned and couldn’t help but look at chief advisor Wang, who had a calm expression.

“Your Majesty, do you have any good countermeasures?”

Emperor Yongxing glanced at the Lords and saw that they lowered their heads slightly and put on a listening posture. Occasionally, they would look up at him. Although they quickly lowered their heads, the thirst in their eyes was undisguisable.

The smile on his face widened, and he felt a sense of satisfaction from controlling the Imperial court.

“Not bad!” Emperor Yongxing said slowly,

“Not long ago, Xu Qi ‘an fought with the witchcraft sect, the rebels of Yunzhou, and the Buddhist sect in Jianzhou. He killed two Vajra Warriors. Now, the Buddhist sect no longer had a Guardian Vajra.

“This is Xu yinluo’s great victory, and it is also a great victory for our dynasty.”

The Imperial study fell silent, and everyone was moved.

“Your Majesty, is, is this true?”

The Imperial censor of the left, Liu Hong, said in shock. He had asked the question that everyone had been wondering about.

Although all the people present were scholars and could only hold the brush with their hands, they were also at the peak of power and were no strangers to The Guardian Vajra of Buddhism.

Guardian Vajra, grade three!

What was the concept of rank-3?

Now, in great Feng, there was only one rank-3 martial artist, Xu Qi ‘an, to hold the fort.

Emperor Yongxing nodded,

“This news will spread in the Jian province very soon. It can’t be fake.”

For the Emperor to say it in such an occasion, the information must be irrefutable.

It was as if the Dukes could hear the wild thumping in their chests, and the surprise and shock on their faces were difficult to suppress.

The surprise this news brought them was no less than the victory of a great battle, if not more.

“Your Majesty, please publicize the information.”

“Great. With this, I can safely reveal the news that the Buddhist faction is supporting the rebellion to the public.”

“Xu yinluo is the pillar of our country, and the People’s hearts are at peace …”

The officials discussed for a long time without stopping.

Emperor Yongxing did not stop him. Firstly, the small court session in the Imperial study was not as serious as the morning court.

Secondly, he knew that everyone needed a place to build their confidence and vent their emotions. The people would be terrified if the news that Buddhism supported the rebels in Yunzhou spread.

On the surface, he was as calm as a mountain, but his heart was as flustered as a tidal wave.

Xu Qi ‘an’s achievements in the Jianzhou continent were undoubtedly an exciting and heroic feat.

Once this small group of people who held power had confidence, they would drive the cohesion of the entire dynasty.

After a long time, Emperor Yongxing saw that the conversation had gradually died down. He looked at the Minister of War and said, ”

“I have already read Minister Xu’s Memorial. Qingzhou will become a place that the Imperial court and the rebels of Yunzhou must fight for. If Qingzhou was lost, the rebel party would have the foundation to go north. There was also a buffer zone for the mobilization of troops.

“Isn’t the Imperial court being too passive if we just blindly defend? There was no such thing as guarding against thieves for a thousand days. If we take the initiative to go south, is that possible?”

Imperial censor of the left, Liu Hong, stepped out and bowed, ”

“It is possible to go south to suppress the rebels, but now is not the best time. The rebels in Yunzhou had planned this for a long time and with the help of Buddhism, they would be walking into the enemy’s belly.

“Furthermore, after the death of the Duke of Wei, Da Feng has neither a transcendent realm martial artist nor a commander. Thus, a steady approach is the best choice.”

The Imperial court doesn’t have a commander? The nobles and generals coldly glanced at Liu Hong.

When a scholar ridiculed someone, he was really good at it.

Although a peerless commander like Wei Yuan was rare, Da Feng did not lack experienced generals.

From the mouth of that Liu, it was as if the Imperial court’s military had already withered in talent.

At this moment, the Minister from the Ministry of War stepped out and said,

“You can summon Xu Qi ‘an back to the capital and give him military power to guard Qingzhou.

“Xu Qi ‘an is Wei Yuan’s disciple. He once wrote a military book that even the great scholar Zhang Shen admitted his inferiority to. No one is more suitable than him to guard the Qing Province.”

Other than Xu Qi ‘an, there were no other third-grade martial artists in Da Feng.

The existence of the Directorate of Celestials was directly ignored by the Dukes most of the time.

Chief advisor Wang immediately stepped out and retorted, ”

“Xu Qi ‘an doesn’t have any experience on the battlefield. It’s child’s play to let him lead the troops to guard Qingzhou. We can’t lose Qingzhou, and the Imperial court can’t afford to lose.”

After a pause, he glanced at the few officials who were not convinced and said in a deep voice, ”

“Xu Qi ‘an is not invincible. If the rebels have a transcendent realm martial artist holding him back or even killing him, the Imperial court will lose Qingzhou. Moreover, Qingzhou is already under yang Gong’s control. Aren’t you afraid that he’ll change his mind if you change the general?”

There was a moment of silence in the Royal study. No one refuted.

When it came to issues that did not involve party disputes or conflicts of interest, the Lords ‘brains were still very useful, and they could clearly and accurately see the interests.

Emperor Yongxing nodded and said in a clear voice,

“Dispatch troops and generals to reinforce Qingzhou.”

After he finished speaking, he looked at chief advisor Wang. Han Lin Academy’s SHU Shi Shi Shi Shi Xu New Year. He is the disciple of the great scholar Zhang Shen. He is proficient in military tactics and has made contributions in the war to help the monsters and barbarians in the North. This time, his name should be on the list of reinforcements to Qingzhou.

Chief advisor Wang’s expression froze for a moment before he continued, ”

“Yes!”

Emperor Yongxing wanted to use Xu niannian to tie Xu Qi ‘an up and make Xu yinluo, who had been receiving orders from the court, work for the survival of Qingzhou.

At the same time, he was hinting to chief advisor Wang that he wanted to promote Xu niannian and give the Shu ji shi a chance to make a contribution.

Yan King’s residence.

The former fourth prince, now Prince Yan, was sitting in the study room, surrounded by burning charcoal. He was wearing a white brocade robe with a ring of Jade, exuding an air of nobility.

He held a book in his left hand, and tea and pastries on his right.

The title of the book, ” the history of Zhou “, was written on the Blue Seal. The flame Imperial Prince was reading the thirteenth chapter of the second volume.

It recorded the story of an Emperor in the middle of the great Zhou Dynasty.

That Emperor was originally the son of a concubine, and there were three other princes above him. The crown should not have fallen on his head.

However, it was such a coincidence that the three legitimate princes either died accidentally in a series of fights or were hated by the Emperor. In the end, it benefited him, the Prince born of a concubine.

“Huaiqing, you really are this Prince’s good little sister.”

The flame Imperial Prince laughed. I was too impatient. The battle between the ‘legitimate sons’ has just begun. How can I, the ‘bastard son’, be so impatient? ”

In the hundred thousand mountains of the southern border.

The night was bleak, and the desolate cries of owls could be heard from time to time in the endless Mountains.

A twenty-foot-long red Bird spread its wings and glided across the mountains.

When it arrived at a certain Valley, it suddenly folded its huge wings, and its body changed dramatically in the air. Its feathers retracted into its body, its wings turned into human arms, and its sharp beak became flat and became lips.

Its head expanded into a ball and turned into. human head … However, when it landed in the valley, it had already transformed into a handsome man with long and narrow eyes.

There was a rock cave in the valley, and two beautiful women who were wrapped in animal skin, revealing their tight thighs and flat abdomens, were guarding outside the cave.

“Greetings, protector Hong Ying!”

The two seductive women bowed.

“How’s elder Ye Ji’s condition?”

The bird demon Hong Ying looked into the depths of the cave.

“He’s still unconscious. We’ve already sent someone to get Guardian Qing Mu.” The seductive woman on the left replied.

Hong Ying’s brows furrowed and she said in a deep voice,

“Who injured elder Ye Ji?”

[ PS: my hands were itchy today, so I watched some early warning videos on the official media about cancer and sudden death. ] He fell into great anxiety when he saw his complete body. Then, he took a nap.
