The devil is coming

Chapter 1018
"Your Majesty, everything is ready."
In the morning, Liu Dahu stood outside the handsome tent to report.
for a while,
The curtain was lifted,
Zheng Fan, dressed in a python robe, walked out.
take a deep breath,
He raised his head again and looked at the slightly gloomy sky today, and couldn't help but said to the blind man and the sword master standing in front of him:
"The weather today is very suitable for the occasion. I am afraid that many literati and poets in the capital will write poems about the sorrow of heaven and earth today."
"Sir, would you like to sing a song first?" the blind man asked.
"I don't have the interest, and I don't know some poems. Have I ever done it?"
When saying this, the prince gave the blind man a meaningful look.
It was the blind man and Ji Laoliu who worked it out secretly, giving themselves a reputation as both civil and military experts.
However, it’s true that Zheng Fan doesn’t like to “copy” poems. In the past, he had no choice but to use some to suit the occasion, so that’s it.
Nowadays, everyone has climbed to this position through their own efforts. It seems a bit ridiculous to rely on "copying" poems to obtain the so-called pleasure and sense of accomplishment.
Immediately, the prince turned over and sat on Pixiu, and it was still the royal guards in Jinyi who led the way out of the military stronghold.
Outside the military stronghold, the army had already formed its formation.
After Gan Ren confirmed his surrender, he didn't use any tricks or tricks. All the imperial guards in the east and west camps outside the capital city obediently completed the disarming and are now under control.
In addition, on the other side of the Bian River, the coalition forces of Gou Moli and Chen Yang have also moved over and are now probably preparing to cross the river.
After the northern elites of the Qian Kingdom were mobilized to the south of the Yangtze River and were overwhelmed in one fell swoop, only three sides of the entire northern defense line were still somewhat chewy, while the rest seemed extremely empty.
It is not clear to Zheng Fan whether Ji Chengjue has withdrawn his intention to conduct a nationwide conscription, but it is undeniable that Dayan mobilized a large number of troops from Yan and Jin, making the border defense line extra abundant.
At this time, there is no need to care about whether the elite is elite or not. Under the premise that the elites are all gone and the others are no longer available, the war has really become a game of pure numbers.
Therefore, Gou Moli and Chen Yang could enter with confidence and boldness.
With their coalition forces stationed at the Bianhe River and here in the capital, it would no longer be possible to cause any trouble.
He is the regent,
Only then can he lead the army into Shangjing with "peace of mind" and accept the knee offered by Ganren.
"Lord."
Liang Cheng had been waiting for him on his brave beast.
"Thanks for your hard work."
A Cheng was the hardest worker. After the battle in the south of the Yangtze River, Liang Cheng had almost no chance to rest and quickly cooperated with the Wu family navy to move north along the Qianjiang River.
"It's not hard, it's quite enjoyable." Liang Cheng added, "Thank you, Lord, for giving me this opportunity."
After all, the image is relatively cold and unsmiling on weekdays. If you lick it occasionally, the effect will be very good.
The prince smiled, stretched out his hand, and gave Liang Cheng a light high-five when they were next to each other.
Then, Liang Cheng turned the beast around, half a body behind and walking beside the main body.
front,
There is a large high platform,
It was built by Ganren.
Standing at the front, back and bottom of the high platform were officials from Daqian's family and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Looking at this high platform, the prince couldn't help but joked:
"You said that these people may have this problem in their bones. They tend to like to use their strength when it is not necessary.
It's just a stage,
That's all I need to do,
Why are you so high up?
unknown,
I thought it was me who was surrendering to his gang. "
The blind man said: "My lord, I think that the people may think that if the altar is higher, the situation on it will not be so clear. In this way, they can give their officials as much as possible." Save some face."
"It's still unreasonable. I've lost all my dignity and still care about face."
"What the Lord said is that a truly strong person doesn't like to stick to etiquette and face."
"Let's begin." The prince urged.
"Here."
The soldiers of the Yan army rode forward and completely surrounded the high platform.
Then, the sound of drumming came from the Dongbian Ganren team, and then a group of dignitaries knelt on the ground and began to cry bitterly.
"Listen, it was fine before, but as soon as the melody came together, we started crying together. None of the white-collar workers are professional in crying."
Amid the sounds of music and cries,
Emperor Daqian was stripped of his dragon robe by the eunuchs beside him. He was shirtless, holding a sheep, and slowly walked onto the stage.
At the same time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also began to walk up on behalf of his father.
Both sides came to the table almost at the same time.
Zhao Mugou looked at Zheng Lin, but he did not feel dissatisfied or angry because the regent himself did not come up. Instead, he knelt down decisively.
Kneeling position, back straight, after all, there is still a piece of jade in the mouth, which needs to be taken out personally.
"What... what..."
The little white sheep next to it made a cry.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the table at this moment.
The ministers on the Qianguo side looked very angry and clenched their fists one by one as the regent himself did not come to the stage but sent a child.
on the countertop,
Zheng Lin took out a clean handkerchief from his sleeve.
First he wrapped his hand with a veil,
Then he went to take out the jade from the official Qian's mouth through the veil.
After taking it off,
He still wrapped the jade with a look of disgust, and the dilemma of subconsciously wanting to throw it away, but it was inappropriate to throw it away, was very obvious and clear.
Zhao Mugou, who was still kneeling on the ground, looked at the actions of the young man in front of him.
Still not angry,
Instead, he chuckled lightly,
Road:
"You and your father are really alike."
Zheng Lin finally handled the piece of jade, and when he heard this, he snorted coldly:
"You're lucky. If you had said this in front of me a few months ago, you wouldn't have saved your head."
Zhao Mugou was a little confused, but unfortunately, His Royal Highness was not interested in explaining his doubts. Instead, he took two steps back to the side.
Road:
"Father, he is waiting for you below."
When the official heard this, he nodded and stood up slowly.
Zheng Lin dodged and changed his position, while Guan Jia was hit hard on the knee and knelt down again.
"Knee line."
Zhao Mugou let out a long sigh, nodded heavily, and then began to slowly move his knees and move forward.
When I got off the stairs, it was much more convenient. At least I could use my hands to support my sides.
"The official family! The official family!!!"
"Official!!!"
To the east, those who are qualified to attend this surrender ceremony are all real people with status and status in Shangjing City.
They were angry at their own officials for being so humiliated by the Yan people.
But they maintained excellent restraint,
Those who don’t want to come never come;
Those who want to die for their country either died last night, or they are preparing a firewood pile at home now;
Those who can come and attend here sympathize with the official family and feel humiliated, but in essence, they still have the intention of changing their family to pave the way for the future.
Under the transfer of political power, the most humiliated people must be the emperor and his ministers...
to be honest,
If the Yan people wanted to govern the huge Qian Kingdom with such a large population, they would definitely have to rely on the officials of the Qian Kingdom.
The official kneeled down to the stage, his body trembling slightly;
To a certain extent, he is the same as Ji Laoliu. He has no talent in cultivation and has not put any effort into it, so he is already struggling now.
Okay,
He finally came to the prince's Pixiu.
But who knows,
At this time, Pixiu began to take steps, moving slowly to the other side.
Zhao Mugou looked up in surprise at the figure on Pi Xiu's back. He had no choice but to continue to move his knees and follow him.
The prince is riding Pixiu for a walk;
It is not Wan who is walking, but the official family of Qianguo.
This is a kind of humiliation, a complete humiliation. There is no need to talk about Zhuxia etiquette, let alone any demeanor.
even,
What kind of psychological trauma will this move bring to Ganren? Will it make Ganren become angry with the same enemy?
Zheng Fan,
Don't care at all.
He just doesn't want to be gentle, he just doesn't want to give you face.
It's a cloudy day today,
When the sun is out and no one is in the sun, I just want to walk more.
Aren't you still thinking about saving face?
Don't you still want to be decent?
I just won’t give it to you,
Not only will I not give it to you,
I will crush it in front of you!
at last,
The official's knees were already bleeding, his lips were dry and cracked, and his figure began to shake slightly. It was obvious that he could no longer hold up.
And the prince,
He finally stopped moving around his crotch.
"Guan family, how are you?"
"That's..."
Pursing his chapped lips, Zhao Mugou still tried his best to maintain his demeanor and said:
"My lord, are you avenging... Mr. Li?"
The new news from the Yan people came back last night, coupled with the previous actions towards him, the attitude of the regent of Dayan suddenly changed too much.
What stood between them was Li Xundao's death.
"I can't say, Li Xundao and I are not familiar with each other, and we even have a grudge.
But that's it,
Upon hearing the news of his death,
This makes me feel really unhappy. "
"Your Majesty, I knelt down in the palace yesterday to persuade Mr. Li to stay and dissuade him...
But Mr. Li has made up his mind;
If I had not asked him to shoulder this historical infamy for me, I would have... not wanted to.
Of course, the prince doesn’t have to believe it. "
"There is no need to believe it." The prince was not touched by this explanation, but said coldly, "I feel uncomfortable, so I have to find someone to vent my anger on."
"Yes, then, has the prince's anger been exhausted? If not, please give me some water, so that I can follow him for a while."
"Zheng Fan, that's enough!!!"
A woman's shout came.
Then,
Zhao Mugou saw a beautiful figure appear in front of him.
suddenly,
In the past, no matter what kind of humiliation they faced, the officials of the Qianguo family were able to "take it as sweet as sugar". At this moment, a look of shock appeared on their faces.
Even if it's just a silhouette,
Even if it’s just the sound of a few words,
But he already recognized who the beauty in front of him was!
It's you,
It's you,
Have you finally...finally come back to me?
The official looked around, and what he saw was a large number of soldiers of the Yan army. It was a dead end with no way to go from heaven to earth.
"It's a pity, even if you come now, you can't change anything...
but,
I am really relieved and happy, because I finally met you, I finally waited for you, my... Queen. "
Appeared here,
Naturally, it’s the sword maid.
At first, she was recuperating at Nanmen Pass, and then she followed Fan Li into Gou Moli's military camp. After the news from Jiangnan came, Gou Moli's troops bypassed Lanyang City and quickly went south. Jianmaid and Fan Li naturally So he came with me.
Although Gouzi's army was still at the Bianhe River, the two of them crossed the river first to join in the fun.
Outside Shangjing City,
The capital of Qian Kingdom,
Daqian officials,
It is easy for the sword maid to "see the scene and miss the person";
You must know that her first master Yuan Zhenxing died on the banks of the Bianhe River in Gyeonggi Province in order to block the Yan people's horse hooves and preserve some dignity for this Daqian.
Therefore,
When she saw Zheng Fan messing with the official family like this, the sword maid suddenly lost control of her emotions and rushed out.
She is the disciple of Lord Sword Master, and she is also the first disciple;
She has a very good relationship with Mr. Li. From Shengle to Xuehai to Fengxin City, many people have seen them walking together in Yueying;
But most importantly,
Although the prince did not give her a status, nor did she claim to be one of her own,
But to a certain extent,
She grew up in the prince's palace and was considered one of the prince's adopted daughters.
Therefore, not only could she come, but no one could stop her when she rushed out.
Even when she suddenly stood between her prince and the official of Nagan Kingdom, the soldiers around her did not instinctively move forward to take action.
Can,
When the prince's eyes fell on him,
The sword maid, who was still angry before, slowly began to feel fearful.
She doesn't know either,
When did I start... to be afraid of the man in front of me?
I still remember that when I was very young, I was near here, by the Bian River, dragging my master's body while daring to speak rudely to the Yan Kingdom guard...
But gradually, some things changed.
She had always felt that what she was most afraid of was the blind man, but what she had been avoiding and denying was that what she was most afraid of now was the man in front of her.
The prince said: "What did you call me?"
"I...I...that...that..."
The sword maid had a difficult expression. She came out, she stopped, she shouted, but now, she was at a loss.
This man was always very talkative, lazy, and pleasant at home, but the sword maid knew what would happen if she offended him.
The official who was kneeling behind said:
"Girl, don't worry about me anymore. Please step back first. I can do it myself..."
"If you keep messing around, I will give Ali an order. He is not allowed to touch you again in his life."
"No!" The sword maid shouted.
"..." Official family.
At this time,
A figure like an iron tower walked out of the military formation and walked up to the sword maid.
Without a word,
reach out,
bend over,
He directly carried the sword maid on his shoulders,
then,
With his rough palm as big as a cattail fan, he pointed at the sword maid's position,
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Hit three times in a row.
Subsequently,
Fan Li showed an honest smile to his Lord,
turn around,
He carried the sword maid and walked towards the military formation.
Fan Li never likes to beep too much when doing things.
"You are seeking death, you are seeking death!"
The sword maid patted Fan Li's back in shame and anger.
Being spanked in front of tens of millions of people was really embarrassing to a person.
Fan Li whispered:
"Stupid bitch, don't risk your life!"
Fan Li knew the temper of his master.
If you make him angry, it may be okay;
But if you annoy him, you're done.
When the sword maid heard this, she was no longer angry;
he,
Did you call me mother-in-law?
And on the other side,
The official of the state of Qian was kneeling there,
Already looking sluggish.
It’s not about how deeply he loves the woman in the dream and painting,
But this scene,
It shattered the last bit of faith in his heart.
Lose...lose,
Completely lost.
Even if the sword maid hadn't made this mistake, the prince would not have planned to continue playing.
waved his hand,
Liu Dahu came forward with several guards, found a horse, picked up the shirtless official, and placed him on the horse. He then used the reins to lean on the saddle to help stabilize the official and prevent him from falling. .
immediately,
The Yan army enters the city!
The Yan army that entered the city first was quickly divided into several parts. One part controlled the city defense, another part controlled the streets, and another part controlled the various passes of the imperial city first.
The small number of Ganguo Imperial Guards remaining in the city did not resist and obediently surrendered their defenses.
However, in order to maintain public order, they also followed the earliest request of the regent. After putting down their weapons, they picked up the prepared sticks similar to those used by government officials when they were promoted to court.
When the prince rides Pixiu into the city,
This capital of Shangjing, the capital of all Xia’s culture,
Even if it is completely pocketed.
Although the prince entered the capital once when he was on guard, he was rushing in and out in a hurry, and it was night, so he could not take a closer look at the scenery of this big city;
And even if Chen Yang led his troops to invade here, it has also suffered military disasters, but it is really difficult to find any traces of the chaos and blackness back then. You have to admire this city's ability to recover.
As soon as he entered Yu Street, Zheng Fan saw a high shelf with a set of clothes and many elegiac couplets placed on it.
It belongs to Li Xundao.
Interestingly, this city ate Li Xundao alive yesterday;
But because of the words of King Yan outside the city, today, a tomb was erected overnight, and the elegiac couplets were basically written by high-ranking officials. Obviously, this group of people were more willing to spend money on speculation, and they took a fancy to this man. Prince Yan seemed to admire Xianggong Li very much.
But in the eyes of the prince, this scene was only a little funny.
"Burn it."
"Here!"
Liu Dahu immediately led people forward and burned the tomb and the frame together.
"Search for the way, seek the way, martyrdom, martyrdom."
Looking at the flames burning on that side,
The prince couldn't help but feel a little emotional,
Thinking back to that year,
Wearing white clothes, he descended the mountain and entered the court as prime minister;
It is no exaggeration to say that we have devoted ourselves to pacifying the southwest and making up for the crisis.
But who would have guessed,
How white the white clothes were back then will be how black they will appear in history books in the future;
How enthusiastic the crowd was when he came down from the mountain to Beijing... how ruthless they would be when they gnawed at his flesh and bones yesterday.
"He's a character." The sword master said.
The blind man beside him shook his head and said:
"Such a character is destined to be written down in the history books as a sorcerer who came down from the mountain and deceived the officials into believing in such tricks as magic soldiers descending from the sky, spreading beans to make soldiers, and evil soldiers taking advantage of the way. In the end, When the Yan army reached the capital, the whole city panicked and was wiped out.
Moreover, no one will help him vindicate himself in the history books. Only he, Li Xundao, is a completely despised person, which can show how absurd the generations of officials in the Qian Kingdom were.
Only then can Qian be destroyed and Yan should replace Qian, which seems natural and logical. "
When the sword master heard this, he looked at Zheng Fan's back in front of him.
The blind man smiled and said: "It's a pity that our Lord only has some respect for heroes, but has no real friendship with Li Xundao.
If there is friendship, according to the Lord's temperament, he will definitely be vindicated. It doesn't matter what Spring and Autumn's brushwork is. Anyway, with the knife on his neck, few of those historians can really be iron-clad.
But now, our Lord can only do this step at most. "
"Still at ease in the world." The sword master said.
"Yes, he is free in the world and commits all kinds of murders and arson, so he can be called a true hero. So I always feel that it is wrong for people in the temple to look down on the world. Even if you are in the temple and do not hesitate to die, in the end, Won’t the shit basin be filled to the brim for you?
Don’t you see how poor King Jingnan’s reputation among the Yan people is... "
The army opened the way and escorted their prince straight into the imperial city.
en route,
The prince saw it with his own eyes,
Black flags were hung at the door of every house.
The first batch of Yan troops to enter the city, when they took over the defense, were preoccupied with checking many streets and markets, and those who did not hang black flags went directly into them and killed them without mercy.
Some people are really tough and would rather die than accept the humiliation of hanging a flag.
Some people failed to grab the black cloth last night... and took other brown cloth or gray cloth instead and were not allowed to pass, thus suffering this unreasonable disaster.
Last night, the black fabrics in the fabric shops in Shangjing were almost sold out, and because they were in such a hurry, there was no time to dye them, so many shopkeepers unscrupulously increased prices and made a huge profit.
It is also from today that a new idiom was born, called Shangjingbugui.
However, these are all later stories.
Because the prince who issued this order was too lazy to pay attention to these details, the Yan army who killed people was too lazy to investigate the details, and the people who came to the capital with black flags and had not been invaded and broke in did not have the heart to feel angry and angry for those who were slaughtered. Wronged.
When the Yan people's saber appeared again in this prosperous and ancient city, the people here instantly became extremely respectful.
after all,
Their adults were walking behind them one by one;
after all,
Their official was shirtless, sitting on horseback, still acting as a companion to the Yan regent.
once,
When Zheng Fan took Xiong Liqing into the Imperial Palace of Yanjing to meet the late emperor, Xiong Liqing said under the guidance of Zheng Fan that the Imperial Palace of Yan State was simply shabby compared to the Imperial Palace of Chu State;
These words,
It made the late emperor laugh loudly and very happily.
later,
The imperial city of Chu State was burned down by King Jingnan.
at the moment,
The most glorious and magnificent palaces of the four great kingdoms in the past also... surrendered before the hooves of the Yan people.
This is not the victory of barbarism over civilization;
Because of weakness,
It is not a characteristic of civilization.
In the hall,
The prince walked up the dragon steps step by step;
Behind him, on the right side of the main hall, stood many ministers and nobles of the Qian Kingdom, and on the left, the military generals.
Amid the dumbfounded Gan people and the deafening cheers of the Yan army,
The prince walked to the dragon throne,
reach out,
I patted the dust on the dragon chair that could not exist in the first place.
turn around,
Slowly but firmly... sat down.
However, those who are more careful can find that the prince is not sitting in the center, at least, there is still some room on the side;
At least, one more Yanjing Quandelou roast duck can be stuffed into it.
"Long live the prince, long live, long live!"
"Long live the prince, long live, long live!"
Ganren on one side could only shout along with him.
The prince raised his hand,
Signaling for silence below, the entire hall fell silent in an instant.
Prime Minister Sun of the Qian Kingdom came forward and read out the edict of surrender.
After he finished reading,
Someone from the Yan people should have read out the Yan people's edict;
But on the Yan people's side, no one came out.
And then,
The prince, who was sitting on the dragon chair, said:
"800 years ago, the three princes opened up the border, and Zhu Xia was as powerful as it is now!
Zhu Xia,
People with the same culture and species belong to the same family.
I am Dayan,
I am from Yan,
I have been serving the Xia Dynasty to control the barbarians for hundreds of years.
Worthy of Zhu Xia!
Of course,
Helian family and Wen family, these two thieves do not respect the Jin family and act as servants instead of carrying their master first;
Later, the two thieves started a war without declaring it, started provocations on the border, invaded our territory and massacred our people. Therefore, I, the great army of Yanxing, defeated the two thieves, welcomed the Jin Dynasty to Yanjing, and raised all the three princes. camaraderie.
The Chu State hooked up with the barbarians and acted treacherously, so they led their troops to attack them!
A hundred years ago, Emperor Taizong of the Qian State took advantage of the decisive battle between our country, Yan, and the barbarians in the desert, colluded with the barbarians, and carried out a sneak attack behind us, committing an act that betrayed the righteousness of the Xia Dynasty.
Nowadays, another branch of the clan has caused rebellion and forced the late emperor to death and usurp the throne. I, Dayan, will be the leader of justice, to put an end to the chaos and bring peace to the world!
Daxia is gone,
But I, Dayan, am still here,
As long as this black dragon flag still stands in the land of Zhuxia,
Then these summers,
I, Dayan, will protect you!
You are not doing well,
Then I, Dayan, will help you do it!
You did something wrong,
Then I, Dayan, will help you change it! "
The prince's voice echoed in this golden palace.
At last,
The prince leaned on the armrest of the dragon chair,
laughed:
"I, Emperor Yan, have declared to the world,
The kingdom of Xia,
The former emperor was reduced to a prince;
The former lord of the country was reduced to the rank of Hou Bo;
And it must be listed on the list, and at the same time go to Yanjing in person to obtain the canonization and confirmation.
From today,
Who dares to overstep their bounds?
can,
Welcome alone.
Not only welcome,
I will personally bring my Dayan cavalry to my door.
Congratulations to you! "
