The devil is coming

Chapter 1000 Proclaiming Emperor
Tiantian walked into the Flower Viewing Tower, and Zhao Yuannian, the King of Fortune, who was also wearing armor, followed closely behind him.
This building used to be so exquisite, but now it is so messy and dirty.
Beauty and ugliness are often separated by a thin line;
For almost a whole day, the prince was in the private room upstairs, admiring the Jiangnan style. But when Tiantian came in, the place was filled with screaming female concubines and disheveled people running out of rooms in panic. By.
Talented and romantic people, such as feather fans and towels, can basically only be viewed from a distance and cannot be played with, because after taking off their clothes, they will either have a big belly or be covered in tasteless ribs;
However, Tiantian is different from his "father". At least, in Tiantian's mind, there is no "revelation" of Jiangnan style;
He was born in a royal palace and grew up in a military camp. To a certain extent, he can be said to represent the common mentality of a group of young soldiers in eastern Shanxi.
More than ten years ago, people in Gan called Yan people barbarians, while Yan people called Gan people rotten.
Over the past ten years or so, Dayan has been involved in frequent foreign wars, and most of them ended in great victories. What was harvested on the battlefield was not only population, wealth, land, food, but also...confidence.
People, no, regardless of whether they are humans, monsters, beasts, or other living things, the most fundamental and essential culture is Xianqiang.
No matter how beautiful the martial arts is, no matter how colorful it is, in the eyes of outsiders, it will still be just an embroidered pillow, or even a joke.
Moreover, as early as the Xueguan period, although the imperial examinations were held in Dayan in eastern Shanxi, they did not cooperate with them. Year after year, batch after batch, either military seeds or hundred soldiers were cultivated. The prevailing trend of pragmatism caused a great sense of cultural estrangement between Shan Dynasty and the Qian Kingdom, which represented the peak of Zhuxia culture.
It cannot be said that Jindong represents enough advancedness and excellence, and nothing will only have one absolute side, but the fact now is:
Including Tiantian, and the Jindong soldiers who rushed into the flower viewing building behind him, they had nothing to do with these literati, these paintings, poems and other "rare things" and "exquisite things" hanging in the building. Feel.
All these bells and whistles are just like Chu people's traveling songs. Not only do they not feel beautiful, but they feel like they are watching a "monkey show".
This kind of mentality did not exist in Dayan at least more than ten years ago before Zheng Fan emerged.
At that time, Jin people heard that people had a strong "literary style", and the Yan people at that time would also ask people from Qian to build a back garden outside the capital for the emperor to visit.
Originally, neither Zheng Fan nor the blind man noticed this change.
But now standing on the high building, looking at the strong impact of the soldiers rushing in and the previous environment, the prince shook the ashes and frowned slightly.
Xie Yu'an, who had been "observing words and expressions" and took the initiative to send ladders and set up ladders, noticed it and immediately said:
"Exquisite things don't need to be dropped. Fortunately, they can be kneaded and reshaped at any time in the future."
Xie Yuan is a smart person. Smart people often appear cold and unsociable;
But it doesn't mean that he can't observe words and emotions, it's just that people were too lazy to do it before and there was no need to do it.
However, when really needed, he can "lick" better and more professionally than anyone else.
For example, Xie Yu'an clearly knew that the regent of Dayan, who was famous outside, actually had a sentiment of "evening breeze and thin willow" in his heart;
So when he saw this situation, he did not directly praise "the prince is mighty" and "the prince is majestic with his troops", but instead followed the prince's temperament to talk to him.
But after hearing this,
The prince shook his head,
It doesn’t seem like he’s responding to Xie Yu’an, it’s more like he’s talking to himself:
"It is not because of barbarism that an absolute military group is created, but because an absolute military group inevitably brings about barbarism."
Zheng Lin, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard his own father's words;
Oh, it started again.
However, when Zheng Lin looked at Xie Yuan, he found that Xie Yuan's expression was frozen for a moment.
Zheng Lin believed that this was not an act, because these days, he had personally witnessed the Xie family Qianliju flattering his own father time and time again. He was of a high rank, and he would not do it in such a blunt and direct way. To set off and contrast.
and so……
Didn't you understand this?
"Your Majesty is far-sighted, boy, I admire you." Xie Yu'an said sincerely.
Because he heard that Prince Dayan was no longer just thinking about conquest... but was thinking about how to make conquest an orderly rule.
This kind of height and depth of thinking made Xie Yuan feel admired at this moment;
Because it has gone beyond the pattern of an excellent general and an excellent handsome man... or even an excellent emperor.
but,
The prince quickly adjusted his emotions.
He smiled,
I looked at the many poetry scrolls hanging between the railings of the private room;
"Earlier, I was still teasing others. I was in a brothel but my ambition was on the battlefield. Well, I actually made the same mistake."
In this most upscale brothel in Jinghai City,
Looking at the panic-stricken men and women below,
I was actually able to take advantage of the situation and think about the long-term stability and cultural identity of the entire Zhuxia in the future.
Si Niang smiled and said:
"Isn't this normal?"
said,
Si Niang continued to play with the prince’s beard.
“In the whole world, the closest thing to the way of heaven is not the back mountain of Qian Kingdom, nor the Tianhu Mountain, the Snowfield Altar, the Chu Kingdom Witch Festival, nor the Qintian Prison.
But here.
To know,
Countless men become Buddhas and saints here every day. "
"Hahahahaha."
The prince laughed.
Xie Yu'an remained reserved and silent.
He couldn't respond to the princess and the prince racing against each other.
now,
below,
Every day when I walk in front of the oiran, the oiran's clothes are the brightest and most luxurious, and he is surrounded by the most maids.
Facing this young general in silver armor,
The oiran calmed down the panic on his face,
Kneel down,
crisp voice:
"Little girl Susu, thank you general for rescuing me."
Normally speaking, most of the time, the guests in the red tent are not as rich as the sisters, and secondly... they are actually not as knowledgeable as the sisters.
The oiran's reaction was extremely fast.
He looked at her every day with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
but,
Tiantian didn't say anything and walked straight past him.
The oiran was planning to say something else, but at least she knew that in this sudden chaos, the silver-armored general could keep herself safe.
But the soldiers beside Tiantian immediately stopped her with their swords drawn.
Tiantian started going upstairs without looking back,
joke,
Although Tiantian is his most beloved son, he should be filial to his father.
But Tiantian is not so foolish and filial that he gives his father a girl when he knows that his aunt is right next to him.
"Commander Father, the general's headquarters and Nian Yao's troops have entered the city and are working to capture the city gates and arsenals and grain depots."
"it is good."
The prince nodded,
Then he turned around and said to everyone in the private room:
"I've been here all day, and I can finally go out and get some air."
Si Niang asked:
"My lord, would you like to change into your python robe?"
The prince waved his hand,
Road:
"It's not like entering the capital city, it's just a Jinghai City. I'm too lazy to put in the effort."
The prince stretched out his hand,
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glanced at his mother and stretched out his hand.
The father and son held hands,
The prince looked at Tiantian,
Road:
"Your brother Tian has grown up. It's not appropriate to hold his hand anymore."
I laughed every day.
He still remembered that when his father took him on an expedition, he liked to hold him together and sit on Pixiu's back.
Now seeing his father holding his brother's hand again, this scene makes Tiantian feel warm in his heart.
Zheng Lin curled his lips slightly,
Co-authored by Brother, you’ve grown up, and you’re still too lazy to lead me, right?
If mother hadn't been watching from behind, I would have let you hold it, I would have let you hold it!
However, overall, Zheng Lin is still very well-behaved, firstly because his mother, who has been looking for reasons to break his legs recently, is here;
Secondly, he knew very well that Bei's godfather was also here, and he was disgusted that he did not cooperate with his status as the crown prince in public.
Therefore, no matter what, Zheng Lin had to cooperate in playing the role of a loving father and a filial son.
but,
When I walked downstairs,
Seeing the oiran being stopped by a soldier,
Zheng Lin whispered:
"Why don't you accept her? You've been staring at her for a long time."
The prince was not angry, but said earnestly and sincerely:
"It's best not to touch the women of Qian Kingdom. The silver-armored guards of Qian Ren are best at giving away their wives."
Zheng Lin said: "If you have a mother to look after you, what does it mean to be a silver-armored guard?"
"I have reached middle age." The prince said with emotion, "When the war is over, I will think about going fishing to maintain my health."
"After all, it's not because I'm afraid of my mother."
Zheng Fan smiled "haha",
Road:
"Do you still have the nerve to tell me?"
The father and son murmured all the way outside the flower viewing building.
Pixiu was already waiting here, Zheng Fan turned over and got on top of Pixiu.
"Where is my horse?" Zheng Lin asked the guard next to him.
Tiantian, who was following behind, directly picked up Zheng Lin;
"My brother is not sick, right?"
Tiantian's voice came from behind.
"..." Zheng Lin.
Zheng Lin was carried to Zheng Fan by Tiantian.
Immediately, Tiantian also turned over to his own beast.
The prince looked at Tiantian and said, "Yanjing has bred two more Pixiu animals, and I'll give you one."
"No need, handsome father, my son has feelings for it."
Tiantian touched the mane of the Pi beast under his crotch.
Zheng Fan nodded. Tiantian is a child who is nostalgic and values ​​feelings.
The team began to march, and the target was the government office of Jinghai City, which was also the center of power in Jinghai City.
The prince and the prince rode together on a Pixiu, accompanied by Xie Yu'an, Tiantian, and Zhao Yuannian. The sword master and the sword maker were in front and behind, and on the outside were the bodyguards in brocade robes.
At this time,
Zheng Fan lowered his head and asked his son:
"What do you think we should do next?"
Zheng Lin replied calmly: "Loot the city and boost morale."
The army traveled a long distance, made a big circle in the Chu Kingdom, and turned over the mountains in the middle. It took a lot of effort to get here, and it must have needed some encouragement.
In addition, the army's military needs must also be solved. There is no reason to ask the rear to continue to deliver grain and grass needs after entering Jiangnan.
"go on."
Zheng Lin continued:
"According to the military law of Eastern Jin Dynasty, the captured proceeds must be concentrated first and then distributed as rewards. This military law has been issued to the Chu army many times before, and you have already allocated the share with the Xie family.
Therefore, for now, let the Chu army loot and the Yan army watch the show. Anyway, they will get a share of the loot. "
When Xie Yuan next to him heard this, he subconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth.
Zheng Fan said: "Continue."
“After the Chu army has finished plundering, you can select a few Chu soldiers to find an excuse and kill them to calm the people’s complaints and make a show of it.
When the Chu army robs a noble family, they can send people to keep an eye on them. After the plunder is mostly completed, they can stop and protect them in the name of the palace.
Maximize the transfer of Ganren's hatred to the conflict between Ganren and Chu. "
"..." Xie Yu'an.
"Anymore?"
"Capture the high-ranking officials of Jinghai City alive as much as possible, and force them to jointly issue a document in response to our army's move to join Qian. It is to help the late emperor of Qian Kingdom avenge and overthrow the rebellion of Qian Kingdom, so as to achieve justice."
"Is it over?"
Zheng Lin turned his head and looked at Zhao Yuannian, who was riding a horse beside him. He was transferred here by a royal order when he was preparing to take advantage of Chu State to join the army. Originally, he had an errand belonging to him in Eastern Jin Dynasty, and he had been doing very well. good.
However, he did not participate in the decisive battle with Chu in the first stage;
Zheng Lin stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhao Yuannian,
Road:
"Forged a posthumous edict from the late emperor and appointed him as the new official of the Qian Kingdom."
Zhao Yuannian's breathing suddenly stagnated!
"He is from the lineage of King Fu and the lineage of Emperor Taizong. He is more legitimate than Zhao Mugou."
Zhao Yuannian gritted his teeth and suppressed his emotional fluctuations from being too obvious.
"The late prince is still in Beijing, and the late emperor of Qian Kingdom still has his prince alive."
Although when the Yan army entered the capital, several princes died. For example, the prince with the most martial virtue died in a fight with his own family.
But the first emperor of the Qian Kingdom was a man who was good at maintaining his health. Because he maintained his health well, he also had many children.
"Don't you think that establishing him would be unjust and justified?" Zheng Fan asked.
Zheng Lin tilted his face and looked at his father;
He really wanted to say,
Then why did you bring someone here specially to do it? Is it fun to take off your pants and fart?
However, the blind godfather in the back kept showing signs of approval, a child can be taught;
My mother's eyes softened a lot when she saw the rare "harmony between father and son";
Zheng Lin really didn't dare to make trouble directly.
As he gets older, he increasingly discovers the fact that many people around him seem to want to hit him?
Then, he had to discover another fact. The only person who could prevent those people from beating him was his own father, whom he despised.
these years,
He has been entering an endless loop,
The more he looks down on his biological father, the easier it is to be beaten...
And if he could learn from the way Xie Qianliju treats his own father these days, twist it and lick it,
It seems that I can gain a lot of freedom.
Because his biological father is actually the one who can make everyone around him surrender and not dare to disobey.
But he was so angry in his heart!
Zheng Fan has never had a particularly bad impression of his son. In Zheng Fan's view, when ordinary people are children, their unfamiliarity and fear of the world will make them instinctively worship and imitate their parents;
When they reach adolescence, they will show a rebellious attitude and feel that their parents, oh, turn out to be just ordinary people.
Only when you are older and have experienced the ups and downs of the world, can you realize that it is not easy to be an ordinary person and a parent.
This son of my own,
It just skipped the first stage and went directly to the second stage.
Who has never been young or arrogant?
After all, which parent would really get angry at an adolescent child?They are all people who have been there.
Oh no, Si Niang is an exception because she is always young.
Zheng Lin opened his mouth and said:
"Justified, but useless."
"Oh?"
"As soon as the statement came out, those who were willing to bet on and agree with it, including Jiangnan, did not see the legitimacy of the statement, but the strength behind it.
If we randomly select a vassal king of Qian Kingdom, even if we rescue the first prince of Qian Kingdom from being detained in the capital and place it here, it will be of no use.
Because those who may have gathered here are looking at actual things.
What is truly practical and can make them feel at ease and willing to bet again,
It's our Regent's Palace...and the Yan Kingdom. "
Next,
Zheng Lin's eyes softened slightly, and his tone also softened:
"Auntie is your father's woman, he..."
Zheng Lin once again pointed at Zhao Yuannian;
"He is my sworn brother, a member of our palace. If he becomes the puppet emperor, the palace will not give up. If the palace does not give up, the Yan Kingdom will not give up. Only those who sit on the fence dare to come down and stand in line, and they can still have a little bit. Cohesion.”
Zhao Yuannian has no fluctuations in the word "puppet".
He never thought about reviving his career after becoming emperor. He must be crazy!
But Zheng Lin’s “sworn brother”
But it made Zhao Yuannian feel deeply flattered;
This is not flattery, because Zheng Lin's status is already much higher than his, and the calmness, courage and wisdom he displays are already very similar to his father's style.
Although, the word "father Xiao" is really not much of a compliment to Zheng Lin, it can even make him crazy and angry.
However, due to the fact that not long after Siniang gave birth to the child, she became extremely tired of her own son and left it to Princess Fu to take care of her like a shopkeeper.
As a result, although the relationship between Zheng Lin and Princess Fu is not as close as an ordinary mother and son. After all, Zheng Lin cannot really be as sweet-talking as a big girl, but Zheng Lin is actually close to Princess Fu in his heart.
In addition, she was... polite to her son.
You know, when the Prince of Chu called him "Brother", if he hadn't just been sealed, Zheng Lin might have punched him in the head.
Zheng Lin continued:
"The news of our army's invasion has reached Shangjing. Shangjing may continue to bite the bullet and not withdraw its troops from the north, but will find other ways to continue delaying the attack, because you have used too many similar tactics before.
But if we set up a small court in the south of the Yangtze River, it would be like going to Beijing. This is a conspiracy.
For the sake of the overall situation of the war, if he didn't care, the South would collapse;
If he doesn't care, the North will collapse.
No matter what you choose, you have to make a difference. "
Hear this,
Zheng Fan subconsciously turned around and looked at the blind man.
Did you teach these words?
Zheng Fan couldn't help but think too much. After all, back then, he had memorized the answers to the questions in advance from Liang Cheng, and then went to Lao Tian to submit the transcripts.
The blind man "caught" Zheng Fan's gaze and shook his head slightly to indicate that it was not him.
That... is what Zheng Lin thinks.
Zheng Fan didn't think that the blind man would cover up for Zheng Lin. After all, he was only his legitimate son, which was equivalent to the emperor having only one prince. Does this prince still need to fight for favor?
Even Tiantian, no one would think that Tiantian would compete with Zheng Lin for his position in the future.
Because everyone in the family knew, including Tiantian himself, that if he wanted it, Zheng Fan would not hesitate to give half of everything he owned to his eldest son.
But Tiantian's ambition is not here... The blind man used "Shaqima" to brainwash and seduce Tiantian when he was very young. Even though he was not successful in brainwashing, this is enough to show how determined this child is.
What Tiantian wants is to give good things to his younger brothers and sisters, and then he will personally help protect them. He is a big brother, and he is willing to always be this big brother.
This has nothing to do with whether it is grown in an old field;
Because in the original trajectory, Tiantian, as the main force, overturned everything.
The fundamental reason is that Zheng Fan took care of him through words and deeds when he was very young. Zheng Fan did not have a sound and warm home in his previous life, and Tian Tian did not have one in his original trajectory;
In this life, father and son are truly father and son, and they both attach great importance to this "family".
and so……
This brat,
Is it that great?
Zheng Fan couldn't help it,
He reached out and pinched his son's cheek.
He rubbed his head again,
Zheng Lin's breathing was rapid and he was holding back his anger.
Don't go too far, it's too much!
Seeing that my own rubbing made my son angry,
Zheng Fan laughed "hahaha".
Strange to say,
He, Zheng Fan, could accept Tiantian's "smartness" back then, and he could also accept the "matureness" of Prince Ji Chuanye back then.
But after all, that is... someone else's child.
Zheng Fan never felt that his biological son could have much potential in terms of "brain". More, he considered his bloodline sideways.
however,
It is undeniable that
Zheng Lin, who has the blood of a demon king and was nurtured by the words and deeds of the seven demon kings,
he,
It's more like... No, he is the real monster in this world!
this moment,
Only then did Zheng Fan realize that he seemed to have been led into a misunderstanding. The Blind Man and the others sealed Zheng Lin's power when he was born, saying they were worried that Zheng Lin would not be able to control himself and turn into a "beast";
Maybe, what the blind people value is not just the so-called bloodline, but also wisdom.
The Regent of Dayan did not break away from the role and instinct of an "old father" after all;
He looked at Xie Yuan next to him,
asked:
"how?"
The kids in the family can recite ancient poems, so they have to pull them out and present them as treasures in front of relatives and friends;
Not to mention, what my son just said is that although Ping Guoce is a bit immature and too focused on skills, you have to look at his age!
Compared to the father-in-law, the prince, Xie Yu'an's heart was actually more shocked, because the prince, his highness, often served him tea and water in the handsome tent after his disguise, and they were in close contact with each other almost every day, but he did not touch him at all. No awareness.
Coupled with the previous words, Xie Yu'an did not believe that this was arranged. Firstly, there was no reason for the prince to cheat by asking him to endorse first in order to show off his son. Secondly, he could hide such a flawless thing with the dignity of the prince. This child was originally unusual.
"Your Majesty, if my Majesty could get to know his nephew earlier, I'm afraid..."
"Afraid you won't fight?" Zheng Fan asked with a smile.
Xie Yu'an shook his head and said: "I'm afraid I should have been beaten early, because if I wait, there will be no hope at all."
"Ha ha."
In front, the sword-maker with "smart ears and eyes" turned back and looked here.
shouted:
"Does His Highness the Crown Prince need a sword?"
Zheng Lin shouted back:
"I like axes."
"What a coincidence, what I am best at in my life is making axes." said the Chu axe-maker.
"First year."
Zheng Fan shouted.
Zhao Yuannian was so excited that he subconsciously saluted while on horseback, and then he stumbled. The sword master next to him stretched out his hand and released a burst of energy to support him, otherwise he would really fall off the horse.
Zheng Lin sighed,
He deserved that his master had been "eaten" by his own father for so many years.
Didn't you realize that your "sworn brother" was deliberately trying to pave the way for the next scene by throwing him into the mud? What are you holding on to?
The sword master didn't know that he had been despised by his proud disciple just now.
Zhao Yuannian, who did not fall into a state of disgrace,
Somewhat embarrassingly, my body shape is just right,
Road:
"Your Majesty, I am here to serve you!"
"My son said he wants you to be an official. Should you do that?"
Zhao Yuannian swallowed and took a deep breath. He did not speculate or refuse. He was not qualified. He remonstrated and pushed back, so he said directly:
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks me to do it, and I will do it. I listen to His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zheng Fan reined in the reins,
Pixiu stops;
Immediately, the entire team stopped.
Zheng Fan stretched out his hand and waved,
Road:
"I haven't met with the officials yet."
For a moment, the Jinyi guards, Xie Yuan, the sword maker, etc. all said in unison:
"Meet the official family of Qianguo!"
"Meet the official family of Qianguo!"
Zhao Yuannian... Oh no, Zhao Guanjia's face was red. He quickly turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to Zheng Fan's Pixiu, knelt down, pressed his forehead against the green brick, spread his hands against the ground,
He shouted loudly in a prostrate manner:
"I'm going down to the official family to pay my respects to His Highness the Regent of Dayan. Long live the prince, long live the prince!"
The prince reached out, grabbed his son's right hand, and helped him lift it;
Zheng Lin felt that this scene was similar to the previous scene of lighting a cigarette on the flower viewing floor.
But after all, it was for the sake of Princess Fu.
Zheng Lin chose to continue to cooperate.
Road:
"Flat body."
