One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 7
During the year and a half of the old Emperor Wu's reign, in order to suppress the rebellious vassals and resist the invasion of the neighboring countries, the Feng clan killed many heroic men who could lead the army and fight.

The other generals were eloquent and eloquent in the court hall.

When they got to the battlefield, they realized that there were not many who could really fight, and they retreated steadily.Seeing the territory being ceded by a large piece or a small piece of land, Feng Yan, who is the crown prince, asked for a battle several times but failed, and couldn't help feeling anxious.

As for Bei Yueyan, he was imprisoned as soon as he returned to Kyoto.

Originally, the old Emperor Wu wanted to find an excuse for rebellion, and wipe it out and wipe out his entire family.As for marrying his daughter, it is good to marry him, but the child must die.Otherwise, some ministers and common people will not be able to completely submit to the new dynasty.

It's just because the Beiyue Clan has accumulated prestige for a long time, some people dare not surrender, and some people are unwilling to surrender.

Therefore, the existence of Bei Yueyan is definitely a scourge for the new dynasty.

Thanks to the prince's intercession, he believed that since Bei Yueyan was the source of the disaster, he should be allowed to lead the army to eliminate the disaster.

All the ministers were in an uproar and strongly opposed it, for fear of letting the tiger go back to the mountain.

The prince knew what his father and the officials were worried about, and repeatedly emphasized that Bei Yueyan was a general, not a talent for governing the country.He never forgets about cultivating immortals, and has no ambitions for the throne, otherwise he would not be captured without a fight.

At the beginning of the establishment of the new dynasty, it was the time for employing people, and killing him at this time was tantamount to breaking his own arm.

Each had their own reasons, and the old Emperor Wu couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he had to imprison Bei Yueyan and his family temporarily, and get rid of him when he found a suitable opportunity.

However, man's calculation is not as good as heaven's calculation, before the opportunity came, the old Emperor Wu exhausted himself to death first.

Once the old Emperor Wu died, the crown prince Fengyan ascended the throne with the reign name Fengyuan.

One generation and one number, the folks call it Emperor Fengyuan.

After ascending the throne, Emperor Feng Yuan released Bei Yueyan regardless of the objections of his ministers, and ordered him to lead his troops to quell the chaos.Under Bei Yueyan's iron-fisted suppression, in the second year of Fengyuan, the feudal lords and neighboring countries finally restrained themselves, so he was granted the title of Marquis of Dingyuan.

With a salary and no fiefdom, it is the best ending after a subjugated king.

In the past, except for the Beiyue Clan who was willing to treat the subjugated monarchs and ministers kindly (disdain to kill them), other countries regarded the subjugated monarchs and ministers as disasters, either punished or assassinated them, or were scattered and sent to various places for supervision like the current Beiyue clan.

As time goes by, these people will die quietly on the spot.

Now that the Beiyue Clan is in decline, it is the kindness of the old Emperor Wu that such a small group of people can live.As long as Bei Yueyan's family living in the capital is willing to live in peace and contentment, those clansmen who are far away can survive.

Where to go depends on the choice of their family.

……

In the territory of Wuchu, there is a small city called Yansai in the southern region, which is mainly characterized by mountains.

It used to belong to Yanshu Kingdom, and it was the only fork road leading to Wuchu, so it was called Yansai.Later, it was captured by Bei Yueyan, the king of Anping at that time, during the reign of the old Beidi, and became a part of Beicang.

The name has not been changed, in addition to responding to Yan Shu, it is also a warning.

Warn Yanshu to learn a lesson, don't be lucky enough to listen to other people's advice, and provoke Bei Cang recklessly.

At the beginning, Yanshu was furious from the monarchs and ministers to the traffickers and pawns, and refused to listen to the warning to form an alliance with Daqi.With this move, Beicang took another step forward and seized a Nanzhou in Yanshu, which was close at hand.

Yanshu was not too big in the first place, and the successive defeats made the monarchs and ministers shrink their heads.

For many years, in the face of the wooing of various countries, he tried to hide as much as possible, and tried his best to avoid conflicts with Bei Cang.During the tyrant's reign, Yansai was regarded as a reward and assigned to the demon queen (Bei Yuecheng's mother)'s natal children as a fief.

Bei Cang died, the dynasty changed, and the demon queen's natal family became overwhelmed, so they took the opportunity to become an independent country.

In the Kaiyuan period of Wu Chu, man-made disasters continued, and the old Emperor Wu was too tired to deal with them, and he couldn't spare to deal with them.In the Fengyuan period, there were fewer man-made disasters, but natural disasters continued. Emperor Wu didn't care about this for a while, and made them happy for a few years.

In the seventh year of Fengyuan, [-] soldiers and horses led by Dingyuanhou Bei Yueyan descended from the sky like divine soldiers, catching the mob by surprise and scattered like birds and beasts in an instant.

This place is thousands of miles away from the capital, and the situation is not stable. Emperor Wu was worried that there would be trouble again, so he asked Ding Yuanhou to station here, and returned to the capital after the people's hearts stabilized.

In this way, half a year passed, and it was the eighth year of Fengyuan.

In autumn, there are rumors that there are black bears in the outskirts of Yansai, and they often appear suddenly in the dense forest or on both sides of the river valley.Not only harassing the villagers living nearby, but also repeatedly attacking passers-by from Yansai to Nanzhou.

When the local government heard the news, they couldn't wait to send people to encircle and suppress.

You know, although bears are ferocious and not easy to hunt, but the bear paws are thick and wide, and the dishes made from them are plump and delicious.If it can be eliminated, it will be equivalent to removing a great harm for the people; if it is dedicated to His Majesty today, it will surely win the Sacred Heart, and the future will be bright.

Killing two birds with one stone, why not do it?
However, the bear is not easy to get rid of.The first time the officers and soldiers entered the mountain to search, there was no result; the second time they entered the mountain, they were a little careless, and were attacked by two big bears back and forth.

Not only did they return empty-handed, but two died and five were injured.

It was not only the officers and soldiers who entered the mountain for the third time, but also the civilian rangers who were recruited by the government posting notices.There is no way, the officers and soldiers are afraid that there are more than two bears in the forest, and they would rather die than go again.

The government had nothing to do, so they had to recruit rangers to embolden them.

Rangers are highly skilled and daring, and they are most afraid of death, only afraid of dying of mediocrity.Knowing that there was more than one bear in the mountain, or two, maybe even three or four, many rangers retreated, and only three of them drank blood wine to strengthen their courage.

Before leaving the city, they boldly threatened that they would not pay back the two evils for the local people.

The people were so moved that at dawn the next day, they gathered at the gate of the city to send off the three martyrs and officers and soldiers.Afterwards, what should the breadwinners do? The remaining few hooligans and a few rangers stood guard at the door, looking forward to it.

The government also sent people to guard, hoping to have good news today.

They waited from dawn to noon, and from noon to midnight, but no one was seen.The people were apprehensive and apprehensive, and lamented for the warriors:

"It's gone, it's gone, it's definitely gone, it's all eaten by bears."

"Impossible?" Someone questioned, "More than 30 officers and soldiers and three righteous men, can the bear eat it?"

"The government said, there is more than one bear..."

Both ends are affirmative, the officers and soldiers have seen it with their own eyes.If you can eat more than thirty people, there is at least three or four heads in every litter, right?
Hey, it's terrible!

The timid people became more and more frightened as they thought about it, and hurried home with their children, fearing that the nest of bears would kill them at the gate of the city.

There are also courageous people who have been guarding the gate of the city, looking at the direction of the suburbs...

At the same time, in the depths of the woods more than 100 kilometers outside the city, a battle is in full swing.

On the rural road in the forest, a short and short figure ran forward like flying, the speed was so fast that the small bun on the top of the head was scattered backwards and flew horizontally.And behind her, a vigorous and ferocious beast roared angrily and rushed towards her——

"Princess, roll right!"

Porf, the little figure who was fleeing for his life rolled to the right on the spot, and while facing up, he quickly raised the sharp small sword he was holding tightly in his hand and slashed at the shadow above his head... It seemed that some small pieces of hot air had been sprinkled on his face.

She closed her eyes subconsciously, and instantly rolled away.

The body was not stable, still rolling, and I heard a few chichi in my ears, which was the sound of a sharp knife piercing into the flesh of an animal.
