MTL - Empress True Colors-Chapter 6v4 Queen's song
At the moment when the sky-shattering waves broke up, the insolent laughter of the rebels in Yuzhao Palace continued unabated.
The guards in the palace retreated far away, and the private troops of various families took advantage of the opportunity to search for spoils.
The hall seemed suffocatingly quiet, and everyone stared at the thick blood slowly rolling on the ground, silent. The end of the crimson curtain hung over the queen's face, and was also stained with blood.
After a long while, someone said softly: "Dead?"
"Perhaps." Xuanyuan Yu wiped his hands nonchalantly, turned around, faced the crowd, and said loudly, "Since the queen is dead, should we elect a new king?"
As soon as these words came out, the ministers who wanted to withdraw from the palace suddenly stopped, and after a long silence, someone said: "This is a big matter, and we need to think about it in the long run."
"What do you grow up with? I don't know if there are many dreams in the night?" Xuanyuan Yu rolled his eyes, "I should be the one who made the first contribution to today's matter. Do you still want to go back on your word?"
Immediately, someone retorted, "You're a rascal..." He stopped in the middle of the sentence, and grumbled, "Although Patriarch Xuanyuan has made great contributions to this matter, you don't seem to be suitable..."
"Where does it not fit?" Xuanyuan Qi stared at the person who spoke.
Before the man could answer, someone immediately shouted: "The Great Wilderness has been established for hundreds of years, and I have never heard of a one-armed emperor!"
As soon as this remark came out, there was a commotion in the hall, and there was faint snickering, Xuanyuan Yuan blushed, and said angrily: "Who! Who dares to insult Patriarch Xuanyuan!"
As soon as he made a sound, the private guards of the Xuanyuan family outside the hall rushed to the hall, drew their swords loudly and glared at each other.
As soon as he drew his saber, the atmosphere became tense immediately. The minister who was pointed at by the saber greeted him, and he and his companion's guards also rushed to the hall, and each of them confronted each other with swords.
A group of noble ministers hid behind the knife array, and started a new round of scolding and fighting.
"Your Xuanyuan family's talents are withered, even if you are successful in this matter, at best, your position will be promoted, so it's not worthy of this great position."
"Then you are worthy of the royal family? You are just from a poor family!"
"I, De Yuanfeng, belong to the founding family of Wen Wuxun. After the real hero of the dragon, when you talk about my background, you should still push my Feng family?"
"Ahahaha, are you joking? Wenwuxun? Who is still talking about Wenwuxun who was more than a dozen generations ago? Why don't you count how many generations of your Feng family have not had access to civil and military power?"
…
The majestic hall suddenly became a vegetable market, and the cynicism and sarcasm gradually turned into a military noise with sleeves swayed and arms flashed, the tinkle of swords and guns colliding and all kinds of extremely vicious sarcasm approached each other, mixed together. Seeing the thick **** smell in the temple, it stimulated everyone's mood. I don't know who opened the head and punched who. A lot of feet stepped on, knives and guns collided on the top of the head, adults who usually pay attention to the dignity of the body, you put your forehead on my forehead, I picked your nostrils, dragged into a pile with bruised nose and face, so no one noticed. Inside, under the curtain, Her Majesty the Queen, who was bleeding quietly, disappeared at some point.
Naturally, no one noticed that the palace door had been quietly closed at some point.
Of course, he would never know that the moment the palace door closed, there was the sound of orderly footsteps in the darkness.
Most of the private troops are still guarding the outside of the hall. The inside of the hall is small, and there are only a few people who can enter. Those people gathered around after searching the things nearby, and gathered with their bulging things. They were all panting with exhaustion, and they were reluctant to put down their heavy burdens. They heard footsteps Turning back suddenly, I saw the palace guards who had been driven away from a distance just now, gathered together again at some point.
The private soldiers of the family stared dumbfoundedly at the guards who seemed to be cowering just now. The lineup was neat, the weapons were complete, and the armor was bright. Surrounded.
The contrast between the front and the back was too great, and someone was startled with a "bang" sound, and dropped the burden they were holding.
There was another sound of footsteps behind him, which seemed to come from the hall, and when everyone turned their heads, they saw a group of people coming out from nowhere in the hall, and the first person was covered in blood, looking very scary.
Someone recognized it for a while, and said in a startled and puzzled voice: "Queen?"
Jing Hengbo hurried out from the inner door of the hall without even looking at the group of private soldiers surrounded by the family. As he walked out, he asked Yu Chun behind him, "How is it?"
"Pei Shuai and Yingshuai have joined up."
"When will you arrive at Yuzhao Palace?"
"In about a quarter of an hour."
Jing Hengbo looked back at the hall, the quarrel was still going on, a mocking smile tugged on her lips.
Greed is really a necessary magic weapon to deceive people, set up frames, and seize the country.
She pressed her face, and behind her Yu Chun asked, "What do you think?"
"Too much sugar." She said indifferently, "It's sticky."
Yu Chun seemed to sigh, and muttered: "It must be done like this, even if it's fake, it's frightening to watch."
Jing Hengbo gave him a blank look, "Who told you that you can't train them exactly the same in a short time?"
Yu Chun put on a bitter face and dared not answer—my aunt said it lightly, how could I know the difficulty of training a substitute, it is easy to imitate a person in a short period of time, but to be able to replace in front of all acquaintances really requires long-term contact and adjustment . Zou Zheng had been trained in private for a long time at the beginning, and the national teacher was cold and arrogant, and lived in seclusion. Ordinary people were intimidated by his temperament and wind, so they didn't dare to look up carefully, so it was relatively easy to get confused. However, this queen has traveled all over the wilderness and met many people. She is also kind and beautiful. Dai Jing Hengbo is more difficult than climbing to the sky.
In desperation, he had no choice but to take the opportunity to make such a bad move. Yu Chun thought that if the Lord saw such a face and believed it to be true... his scalp tingled for a while.
Jing Hengbo licked his fingers and walked over. There were sugar and red yeast rice in the fake blood, which was very sweet.
A private soldier standing a little closer to her heard this conversation and stared at her back in astonishment.
But he won't have the chance to understand the meaning of this sentence.
The densely packed palace guards had already approached step by step. In the narrowing encirclement, these private soldiers who were covered in gold and jade and had no fighting spirit, put down their weapons in cooperation one after another, and were detained by groups.
While the quarrels and fights in the hall continued, suddenly there was a bang, Xuanyuan Yu was kicked by someone, hit the window, smashed through the long window with a crash, and fell out of the window, there was a burst of laughter inside, someone loudly said disdainfully: " Losing an arm saves trouble!"
Xuanyuan Yu fell to the ground, Jing Hengbo waved his hand, and immediately a guard stepped forward to help him up, Xuanyuan Yu also laughed loudly, "Indeed, I'll save you trouble, but you guys have too much to do!"
"Boom." A loud noise was accompanied by his final sound. The people in the hall seemed to be not far away when they heard the sound, and they all stopped and turned their heads in astonishment.
Then their eyes widened.
Through the long window, the first thing I saw was the queen who was supposed to be lying under the curtain and was trampled to death. She was still bloodied and her face was horrifying. She stood on the golden jar in front of the temple door, looking down at them , with a smile on the corner of his lips, lazy and dangerous.
At the second glance, I saw countless guards lying on the window, holding bows and arrows, and holding high torches.
With the third eye, I saw a large number of black people rushing into the white square in front of the temple like a tide. The black torrent and the crimson torches interweave into a gorgeous brocade, which spreads thickly on the other side of the field of vision.
In the faintly pale morning light, the leading banners were one white and one black and red, as if they were the flags of Yuzhao Dragon Knights and Henghalberd Army.
Everyone felt a bang in their heads.
After all, they are all people who came out of the officialdom, after a moment of **** and impulsiveness, they took a look at the situation in front of them, and then at Xuanyuan Yuan who was crawling up outside the palace and giggling, and immediately understood what happened.
It turned out that it was the queen's bureau from beginning to end!
It turned out that both the throne and Xuanyuan Yu were just bait thrown out.
It turns out that the queen wants to lure the snake out of the hole and catch them all!
It turns out that they are all but drawn serpents, beasts caught in the net!
The vegetable market turned into a cemetery. In the dead silence, someone moaned: "Why? Why?"
As if one word awakened the dreamer, everyone suddenly looked up, with the same disbelief in their eyes—why?
Although this move is fierce and precise, it will definitely damage Dahuang's vitality.
Any king who has just succeeded to the throne will not pull out the cancer so hard. Which dynasty has no ambitious people? Courtiers not driven by lust? But when the water is clear, there will be no fish. The government must be maintained, the court must be operated, and state affairs must be handled. Do not stay?
This turmoil has caused a stir in Beijing, and no one can stop it. The queen's actions also show that she will not cover it up. Then tomorrow, half of the court will be vacant. And their descendants, after the nobles of the imperial family... How did the Great Wilderness court become king?
Everyone stared at the queen on the golden vat. In the firelight, her sleeves fluttered and her posture was straight, but her face was bloody, her muscles rolled, and her appearance was ruined.
That unbelievable feeling came again.
In order to pull them out, destroy half of the imperial court, and destroy the most important unparalleled appearance of a woman, is she really crazy?
Some people took a breath, looked at each other, and felt that they were not in a desperate situation yet, and they should join hands to negotiate with the Queen.
But before they had time to speak, Jing Hengbo's understatement made their eyes go dark and they thought they were crazy.
"It's all burned."
…
March 11, 373.
A fire in the main hall of Yuzhao Palace that was not ignited in time extinguished the raging fire of desire in the hearts of those who participated in the rebellion.
The guards outside the window held torches and poured tung oil all over them. They didn't care how many dignitaries gathered in the temple, and they didn't care that all of these people could cause chaos in the wilderness, just like preparing to roast a row of suckling pigs. The queen gave an order, Without even counting one, two, three, the torch was thrown in.
With a bang, the fire immediately swept through the most noble people of Dige.
I don't know if the screams were panic or accident. The ministers, who are used to threatening first and then negotiating, didn't know what real vicious determination is until today.
Those ministers who were still preparing to fight together, threaten the queen, and join forces to win the game, suddenly lost all their wits and scheming in front of the flames burning their eyebrows and the queen's unhesitating murderous intent , Shouting and screaming, begging for mercy immediately.
Only with a buffer can there be variables. Jing Hengbo only intends to give them the choice of life and death.
The cracked long window was the only escape route, and there were countless soldiers guarding it. If they wanted to climb out of it, they first handed in their patriarch's badge and seal, and then under the guard of the soldiers, they wrote a confession letter and signed it under their own name. All property resource faction allies of .
Some people even thought of calling private guards to escape by themselves, but when they saw the square already occupied by the Yuzhao Dragon Knights and the Hengji Army, and even the Kanglong Army rushed over, they knew that they were nothing more than a fool from the beginning to the end. clown.
Some people are willing to ignite a flame in the world, attracting moths to rush to them, and burn away their ugly faces with one fire, and see the world compete for the truth.
Since that day, Dige's Pegasus has never ceased.
In the light and shadow of those horseshoes soaring, there are the collapse of high gates, the imprisonment of groups of nobles, the cries of regret, and the wealth of cars full of cars.
Those who participated in the rebellion participated in the twelve noble families of Dige, all the principals and the men were imprisoned, their titles were deprived, and all their family properties were confiscated, but the crime was not as serious as that of their wives and daughters. The remaining rebels will be dealt with according to the circumstances depending on the severity of the crime.
At that time, Dige Prison was overcrowded, and the armies of Hengji, Kanglong, and Yuzhao guarded inside and outside the city day and night, blocking the entire Dige prison, allowing people to leave and not entering.
Half of Dige is crying, half of Dige is laughing, Jing Hengbo ordered that half of the confiscated aristocratic property should be included in the national treasury, and half should be used for the people of Dige to make a living, go to school, and seek medical treatment. The family property supports those who are under ten years old and over seventy years old and have no means of subsistence.
The entire Dige court was trembling. Those officials who did not participate in the rebellion, while being more afraid of Tianwei and more diligent in their work, were also grateful for the Queen's kindness. Except for a few recalcitrant and unyielding first rebels who were abandoned by the owls, most of them were not killed. A considerable number of rebellious children were exiled, and some who participated muddled or were forced to participate were reviewed by the department. After comparing with the confession, he was able to return to serve in the imperial court, but he could no longer return to his original position and had to start from scratch. But for those who narrowly escaped death, this is already a great fortune-every time, great treason, no matter how serious, has implicated the entire family and caused rivers of blood. The queen raised it high, but put it down so lightly, which surprised everyone, and let out a long breath of relief—in this way, although turmoil in the Dige court was inevitable, at least it would not be completely paralyzed.
Pulling out cancerous tumors is a serious problem, because the pulling out is often not clean, which leads to continuous follow-up, and the pressure falls short. But if it is pulled out thoroughly, everyone will be swept out, and those people will lose their follow-up power, making it difficult to set off huge waves. Even if it is paralyzed for a while, after all, there are more innocent and talented people, and within three or two years, it will eventually recover.
Sometimes Jing Hengbo is also thankful for the unique pattern of the Great Wilderness, which allowed her to pave the way for the relationship between the neighboring countries and tribes during her exile. Therefore, the turmoil in Dige was locked in Dige. Otherwise, in any country, if the center is in chaos, the first thing to face is the separatist forces from all over the country and the rebellion of dissident generals.
As for the considerable number of family private troops, it is another cancer that was uprooted by this rebellion. Before this, no one would have thought that the private army supported by various families in the name of family guards would add up to such a huge army that could shake Dige. In the hands of the queen, it is still unknown who will win the rebellion within Dige.
Jing Hengbo ordered all these people to be sent to a secret workshop near Dige to work as coolies. After training and brainwashing there, they would all be dispersed and incorporated into the three major armies of Dige. These people are not the domestic slaves of those wealthy families, nor are they just hired guards. It is not necessary to kill them all, but they have enriched Dige's defense force from then on. Since her generation, the guards of wealthy families have been strictly restricted, and the family's private army no longer exists.
During those turbulent days of Dige, the Queen kept covering her face with a white cloth, and sat high on the throne to handle political affairs. There were rumors that Her Majesty fought against the rebels on the day of the rebellion, her face was injured, and her appearance was disfigured.
After covering their faces with a white cloth like this for a month, the ministers were already mentally prepared for the Queen's "disfigurement". When the Queen appeared in the court one day with a scarred face, everyone was not surprised. put your head down. He didn't dare to look at that uneven face again, with a large deep red scar running across the entire cheek.
After a day of seizing the emperor's song, and then after the emperor's civil strife, the queen is no longer in the hearts of the ministers. The bright but innocent woman on the red carpet in Wumingtai Square is not the one who was expelled from the emperor's song in the snowstorm. Queen of Desolation, the scars on her face seem to remind everyone that this is a journey of blood and fire, no matter how many scars there are, the weight of human life and mind will be heavy.
In 373 and 373 of the Great Wilderness Calendar, Emperor Ge's court was shivering and trembling.
In the year 373 of the Great Wilderness Era, Di Ge didn't know that his history was approaching a turning point.
In the year 373 of the Great Wilderness, Emperor Song gave birth to the most controversial and powerful queen in history. She was privately called "Bloody Scarface" by those nobles who feared and hated her but never dared to resist her again; Song people quietly called "our most beautiful girl".
In April 373 of the Great Wilderness Calendar, Emperor Ge, who had been under martial law for a long time, finally opened the gate slowly, and a group of ragged people, wearing shackles and handcuffs, walked out of the city gate in a line, followed by escorting soldiers.
The people on all sides watched silently, knowing that this was the Dige prisoner who was exiled during the Dige rebellion. They will travel through most of the wilderness until they arrive at Heishuize, where they will be supervised by the hawksbill turtle.
Among the crowd, there was a small soldier who walked lazily at the end. His hat was a little crooked, and his armor was tied a little slanted. From time to time, he raised his eyes to see the scorching sun in April, and then pulled his hat down again.
Under the shadow of the brim of the hat, the soldier's skin is as transparent as water, and his black eyes are glancing over the bright red Queen's flag on the top of the city.
The **** officer who walked in the front looked back at the little soldier, a little dissatisfied and a little puzzled, under the current Queen's rule, there are still people who dare to be so tired and boring.
But he didn't dare to take care of it, because Gasser came in. It is said that he is the neighbor of the nephew's nephew of the younger brother's daughter-in-law who is the leader of Yuzhao Longqiying. Any security guards, and requests to try not to restrain... In short, don't offend.
The **** officer thought viciously, this kid is just as good as he is on the way, if he really wants to be restless, he will complete the **** task by himself, and there will always be a reward when he returns to Dige, maybe he can even see the queen, and then he will take part in it!
The little soldier has been staring at the Queen's flag—I saw the Queen's flag half a year ago, and today I don't know when I will see you again?
If you can't raise the white mountain and black water flag on the side of the queen's flag, you won't be able to see it!
Suddenly she was squeezed heavily by someone, and she turned her head to see a person wearing a bamboo hat. The pair of flying black eyebrows under the bamboo hat made her immediately recognize who it was.
Before she frowned, the guy whispered and quickly said: "Don't scold, be careful to be discovered."
"Why are you here?" She frowned, thinking that her identity was so secret when she left Beijing this time, and she deliberately chose this time, why did Pei Shu know about it?
"I'm here to see someone off. I wanted to talk to you a few times before, but I never had time to talk. I have someone here. I need to find someone out of Dige. He has good martial arts skills, and I happen to be with you." Pei Shu quickly pushed a person over, " Same as you, Gasser's, said to be the daughter of my unmarried wife's elder brother's master's elder sister..."
"Go away!"
"She might be able to find someone for you."
She paused. His eyes finally passed over, and he saw the man's appearance clearly, and his eyes flashed.
Behind him was the majestic city wall of Dige, and the flagpole of the National Teacher's Flag stood alone and high, making a clanging bass in the wind.
She stared at it for a long time, then turned around, "Let's go."
The man behind him followed silently.
April of 373 in the Great Wilderness calendar.
The queen sings the emperor's song.
