My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 433 One punch and thousands of troops

The wind blew through the courtyard.

Only a short time passed. In the darkness in the direction of the ancestral temple, Li Shimin, Zhao Kuangyin, and Cao Cao floated over. They felt a little strange when they saw Su Chen looking for them here.

"Chang Sheng, what's the reason for letting the three of us come here this time?"

Su Chen did not answer, but walked to the courtyard, letting the thoughts of possession come to him. He saw the six blank spaces under the merit strips, and the faces of Cao Cao, Li Shimin, and Zhao Kuangyin suddenly lit up.

The next second, the three emperors who floated over also disappeared.

Meng Yuyin and the palace maid Xiao He, who were watching under the eaves, felt a gust of cold wind blowing over, which made the two women shiver. They looked at the emperor standing still in the courtyard with confusion, and couldn't help but call out: "Your Majesty?"

Over there, Su Chen stood in the darkness, slowly opened his eyes, clenched his fist with his right hand, and channeled the martial spirit, thinking together.

Emperor Wu of Wei’s Secret Technique: Tiger and Leopard Riding!

Tang Taizong's Secret Technique: General Tiance!

Song Taizu’s Secret Technique: Dragon Pan Four Hundred States!

In an instant, the lanterns hanging under the eaves of the palace swayed. The palace guards who were patrolling and on duty nearby, and the masters of the embroidery department who were secretly guarding, felt their hair combing through their hair, and their eyes came out of the darkness and looked towards the courtyard.

Meng Yuyin, the maid Xiao He under the eaves, and the eunuchs waiting outside the door seemed to be hallucinating. In their ears, they vaguely heard the sound of thousands of horses galloping from His Majesty over there. People around were breathless.

"His Majesty……"

The moment Meng Yuyin trembled and took half a step back, Su Chen's figure in the courtyard gradually bent and tightened, and then suddenly took a step forward, and his clenched fist stabbed out from his waist like a long stick.

Take a step!

A punch came out.

Just listen to the howling wind in the courtyard, smoke and dust are flying in the direction of the punch, the floor tiles burst out, and the splashed fragments roll in the air, rushing towards the long corridor in front, and the pillars and guardrails twenty steps away are breaking and tilting in an instant It collapsed, and this section of the corridor collapsed in an instant, with tiles falling to the ground.

Wait for the smoke to clear.

The surrounding guards and secretly masters of the Embroidery Department opened their eyes wide. Meng Yuyin and the palace maid Xiao He under the eaves even covered their mouths. They looked at the punch in front of the emperor in horror. The ground seemed to be covered by thousands of troops. Trampled on, the floor tiles were shattered and the flowerbeds were destroyed, leaving only a mess.

Su Chen looked down at his palms. His face showed no expression, but his heart was full of horror.

I didn't expect that the changes brought about by this advancement would be so powerful. This is only the secret technique of three emperors. If all six are filled up, the power of the punch will probably increase even more.

After thinking carefully for a while, Su Chen felt that adding different secret techniques of emperors could create different effects and powers.

The only regret is that, just like before, the secret techniques of the emperors can only be used once a day.

At this time, Pei Min, Zheng He, and Wu Zixun, who had just left, heard the noise and hurried over, "Your Majesty, what happened?!"

"It's okay. Let's all go back and rest. I just realized something."

Su Chen waved his hand and looked with satisfaction at the surface in front of him that was destroyed by his punch. The three people who arrived stood next to Su Chen. At this time, they also saw this scene and the collapsed half of the corridor in the distance. They were shocked and speechless.

"Everyone go back and rest. I'm a top expert, so don't make a fuss."

Su Chen smiled at them, walked back to the eaves with his hands behind his back, and returned to the bedroom with Meng Yuyin's increasingly plump waist in his arms. The punch just now made him a little exhausted, but fortunately, the alcohol was also with him. All the punches were released.

"Go to sleep."

Su Chen took off his imperial clothes and asked the palace maid Xiao He to take off the crown on his head and hang the imperial clothes on the shelf next to him. After lying on the bed, Meng Yuyin swayed over and lowered the bed curtain. After winking at Xiaohe and letting him leave the room, he couldn't help but smile sweetly at the candlelight on the table and blew out the candlelight.

There was the rustling sound of undressing in the darkness.

Su Chen lay under the mattress, feeling the warm body lift off the quilt and get in, then he hugged the girl over and pressed it against his chest...

Outside, Cao Cao, Li Shimin, and Zhao Kuangyin felt weak for a while, and their feet were floating. Unexpectedly, they were summoned in the middle of the night, making the three of them extremely weak, and there was no benefit.

Immediately, he drifted towards the ancestral temple muttering.

……

The light of day travels thousands of miles across the country.

The palace was under martial law, with palace guards patrolling everywhere.

Burning candles create a warm atmosphere, and in the bright lights, there is the sound of chessboard moves.

The Emperor of Yue was twisting the chess pieces, looking at the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard. After thinking for a while, he dropped the black piece, followed by a sigh.

"Your Majesty, you can do two things, but you can't have concubines." Opposite Meng Tong was Queen Zheng.

The two have been married for thirty-seven years and do not have many verbal rules in private.

The night wind blew under the eaves, the shadows of the soldiers outside were cut on the paper windows, and flying insects buzzed around the quiet candles. Meng Tong watched the queen's move and smiled. "I've been worried a lot lately, so I can only tell you about it."

As he spoke, he picked up one.

"The Shengkang state of Wu was defeated, and Emperor Kang Zun of Wu announced his abdication in Luyang. From then on, the state of Wu, which had been arguing with the Yue state for hundreds of years, no longer existed."

"Isn't this a good thing?" the queen said smoothly and looked at the chessboard intently. Then she realized what she said was wrong and was about to explain. The husband opposite, the emperor of Yue, spoke first. He didn't mean to blame. He just twisted the chess pieces with a wry smile on his lips.

"What a good thing, we are the only one left among the six countries, Yue Country."

"Your Majesty is worried..." Mrs. Zheng's voice hesitated for a moment, maybe she felt a little cold. She tightened her phoenix robe tightly and said hesitantly: "... It shouldn't be possible. After all, Xia Guo and us are related by marriage. That Xia Guo The emperor treats our daughter quite well and is very kind to her."

"It's true that there is more favor." Meng Tong sighed, "But it can't be compared with state affairs. Alas, even if you tell me, you don't understand."

"Then what do you think, Your Majesty?"

"What do you think?" Meng Tong casually said, "Of course we should strengthen our military and strengthen our guard. The country of Yue cannot fall into my hands."

In the tent, the queen was no longer interested in playing chess. She looked at the emperor opposite with worry, "If the Emperor of Xia wants to go to war with us in the future, will Yuyin be defeated by him..."

"Probably not. At least I think this son-in-law can tell the difference."

Meng Tong now calls Su Chen his son-in-law. Actually, he also wants to regain some face as his father-in-law to fill some of the imbalance in his heart.

He straightened his back just now, and then hunched down again, "But as I am getting older, I may be able to defend the country of Yue, but as you have seen, my five sons are still eyeing the crown prince position at this time. There is one person among them who won’t fight for it, and I can’t help but give the position to that person, but they all fight over each other and get their heads bruised and bloody... Alas!”

At this point, he sighed again.

"Then why doesn't Your Majesty decide on the crown prince position to save them from fighting for it?"

Meng Tong withdrew his hand from picking up the chess pieces and looked at the chessboard without speaking for a while. After a long time, he slowly spoke again.

"Queen, you don't understand... The situation has reached this point. It is no longer appropriate for me to give the position of crown prince to anyone. If no one is convinced, it will only make other princes and ministers who have already taken sides even more crazy."

He pursed his lips.

"At that time, even if they rebel and seize the throne, the Yue Kingdom may really be torn apart. Without the Xia Kingdom to attack, it will already be a piece of scattered sand."

After clearing the chessboard, Meng Tong stood up with his knees propped up, and with the support of the queen, he walked out of the tent. The flickering candlelight shone on his face, and he said softly: "There is still time left for the country of Yue. There is not much left, and this is why I am upset. Our daughter wrote a letter last month asking me to ask the Emperor of Xia to come forward to mediate."

"Is your Majesty willing?" The queen frowned.

Meng Tong looked at the candlelight and smiled, then turned back to look at his wife beside him, shook his head, and nodded again: "I once suspected that the five princes of us who fought like this were not as good as the envoys of the Xia Kingdom that day. Related, if this is the case, it means that the Emperor of Xia has already reached out and will not let him come forward. He has been standing in the shadows, wondering what bad ideas will come out, and our daughter will be used as a gun by him. "

The emperor chuckled lightly.

His eyes gradually became colder. He flicked the wax water on the candle, asked the palace maid next to him to come over, replaced the candle, and then continued: "Only by letting him come forward and let him stand in the light can we see his true face. Only then can we guess what he might do next.”

At this time, there was a eunuch's voice outside, which sounded quite anxiously.

"Your Majesty, Queen, something happened."

"what's up?"

Meng Tong and his wife looked at each other, feeling a bad premonition in their hearts. Sure enough, the eunuch who reported the incident outside whispered: "The news just came from Changzhou that the sixth prince was seriously injured. Those who heard the report said that it was an assassin sent by the fourth prince."

There was silence in the dormitory, and the atmosphere became depressing.

"I understand, let's go down."

After the eunuch was sent away, the silent Meng Tong suddenly broke away from his wife's hand and slapped the table, "Queen... What a man fears most in his life is having an ignorant bastard son in his family, but I …There’s a group of people at home!”

"Your Majesty, don't say that..."

Meng Tong raised his hand to interrupt the queen's words of comfort behind her. He was holding the table, and the whole table was shaking slightly. It could be seen that he was very angry with his five sons at this moment.

"I am disappointed with them, but I still have to worry about the Yue Kingdom. I will send a letter to the Emperor of Xia tomorrow to ask this son-in-law to come forward to mediate. By the way, I want to see his path clearly so that I can take precautions to avoid harming him. The way."

Soon, he came out of the queen's palace and went directly to the imperial study. He spread out the paper and wrote a letter from home. As for why it was not a letter of credence, he omitted the seal from the middle of the letter. It was just for precaution. The Emperor of Xia would do this in this regard. Make a fuss.

Afterwards, he handed the letter to his attendant.

"Hurry up and send it to Luyang in the Central Plains. Please quickly invite the Emperor of Xia!"
