What about the soft and cute bamboo horse I am a freshman?

Zhen Guogong Liu Qing was the general who accompanied Xu Zhang, who was still the prince, to the expedition. Later, he also helped Xu Zhang put down the rebellion of King Wen.

After Xu Zhang succeeded to the throne, he couldn't say that he had lost everything to the general, but he was indeed afraid of his prestige in the army, and he restricted his family heirs openly and secretly.

For example, Liu Song.

Liu Song has a certain talent for painting formations, but he can't go to Beiya, because Xu Zhang feels that the Liu family already has military power, so naturally the painting formation masters in the front-line battles can no longer belong to the Liu family.

So he can only bring the strength of Jinyin to Nanya to fool around.

"There are so many twists and turns here," Jin Shi scratched his hair, "It's too complicated, isn't it good to simply draw the formation?"

"Because there are people, it will naturally be complicated," Liang Fang said lightly, "but you don't need to worry about these problems. After the exam is settled, I will give you a clean Nanya."

Clean Nanya.

Jinshi understood that Liang Fang wanted to use this incident as an excuse to completely eliminate those problematic array painters in the Nanya.

Going one step further, you can take this opportunity to insert Liang Fang's own forces.

Jinshi didn't care about this aspect. After all, he stayed to help Liang Fang, so Liang Fang only needed to give him someone he could use, and he didn't want to care about the rest of the interests.

"But Nanya is short of manpower right now." Jinshi lay on the table, with his arms under his head, and looked sideways at Liang Fang, "You have made it so clean for me now, there is not even a person who can repair the formation , I don’t know when the array test will be reopened, and there is no new array painter, so I can’t work now.”

Seeing Jinshi's pitiful appearance, Liang Fang softened his heart, and said after consideration: "I will send you two gold seals from the Beiya in a while."

Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of Bei Ya, this can easily produce two gold seals.

"But..." Jinshi hesitated, "The golden seals of the Beiya should all belong to Si Douzhen, right?"

"Golden Seal's understanding and ability are there. It should be no problem to repair some simple formations."

"But this is not a long-term solution..." Jinshi lamented, "Besides, he is a gold seal, so he definitely won't do it for a long time..."

Liang Fang was silent for a while, and then said: "Da Mu has been in turmoil in the past few years, the array painters have lost a lot, and there are indeed relatively few new recruits."

Due to the rebellion of King Wen and the war in the northern border, the former painters either died on the battlefield, or were imprisoned or exiled for "standing on the wrong team".As few as Xu Zhang, the new painting masters, are happy to pass the exam because "there are more people taking the exam this year than last year".

Seeing Liang Fang's appearance, Jin Shi couldn't bear to embarrass him, so he stretched his waist: "Okay, it's okay, I should be able to cope with the summer flood season, and I'll talk about it after the investigation is over. Speaking of this, that Tao Boyang, behind the scenes Have you found out the power of yours?"

Hearing this sentence, Liang Fang pinched the center of his eyebrows, and then handed the array paper he had been looking at to Jinshi.

Jin Shi stretched out his hand to take it, unfolded the formation paper, it was a big formation, he carefully felt the formation on the formation paper, he was a little surprised: "This is..."

This looks like the big formation Tao Boyang set up during the formation test, but this big formation is a little different, the organization of the formation is more clean and neat, and Jinshi can feel that this formation is more subtle than the previous one. Not a lot.

The most important thing is that this formation looks perfect, there is no flaw in the previous "three quarters", there is no way to break it except destroying the eye of the formation!Jin Shi couldn't help shivering when he saw that formation. If he entered this formation at the beginning, it would probably be difficult to get out alive.

"This was completed by my father. The Yanlong Bone Erosion Formation in Jiangfengling." Liang Fang paused, "It has been kept a secret since it was completed. Only the national teacher can open the brocade box where it is stored."

The big formation completed by the old national teacher Liang Hang.

"Back then..." Liang Fang's eyes fell on the paper, "It was not only Song Shenbi who entered the Yanlong Bone Erosion Array back then, but also my father."

Jin Shi looked at Liang Fang in shock: "The old master?"

"Jiaxing Pass outside the Qinya Mountains, Jiangfengling Pass in Chengzhou, and Zhuyi Chongjin Pass near the hinterland of Damu are the three main passes of Damu. If you cross these three passes, the gate of Damu will be completely closed. Open it, there is no way to fight back," Liang Fang recalled, "At that time, Jiaxing Pass was broken, and Lan An was blocked in Jiangfengling due to the terrain and Damu's troops, so he divided his forces and wanted to surround Jiangfengling , was noticed by Song Chengyan, and led his army to stop it, but it became the eye of the formation. Lan'an laid out the Yanlong Bone Erosion Formation, and trapped [-] troops in Jiangfengling. The father who was defending at Chongjinguan heard that Finally, he went to the rescue. At that time, his father did not enter the formation. He wanted to break the formation outside, but found that the calculated formation was very strange. At that time, the situation was urgent, so he had to choose to enter the formation with his own body. And waited After he entered the formation, he finally understood what was going on in the formation. At that time, the [-] army had been slaughtered, and only Song Shenbi and a small group of troops were left. The other formation painters and soldiers were all dead. "

A group of people were trapped in the death formation without a clue to find the exit. The fire dragon ignited one forest after another, depriving one life after another. The flame seemed to be alive, playing with everyone in the formation, and then Swallowing it in one bite, it burned the lush Jiangfengling into a line of fire until the formation was broken.

Jin Shi touched the lines of the formation, and this formation is the real Yanlong Bone Erosion Formation, the spirit energy is swallowed first, so the formation painter who can use the spirit energy to draw and break the formation will be the first to suffer, and Song Chengyan temporarily escaped because of the formation eye After a catastrophe, he gritted his teeth and persisted, and finally waited for Liang Hang, but also waited for the fact that only his own death could save the remaining people.

Jinshi thought of what Song Chengyuan said to him at the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion, and Song Chengyuan's subsequent assassination of the National Teacher.

He felt that he vaguely guessed Song Chengyuan's motives back then.

"Then..." Jinshi hesitated to speak, "This big formation... back then..."

He didn't go on.

Song Chengyuan has also disappeared now, his life and death are uncertain, and there has been no news for so many years.

Liang Fang sighed: "There were not many people who survived this big formation back then, and my father seldom mentioned it later. Restoring this formation is also to find a way to break the formation and to make successors vigilant against this formation. But This is a formation specially designed for those who have the Heavenly Stems and Fate, but there are too few Heavenly Stems and Fortunes, and after more than 20 years, they have been forgotten by people."

There were not many people who survived, and except for Liang Hang who joined the formation later, all the painters died, and only a few soldiers who did not understand the formation were left behind.

"So..." Jinshi touched the lines on the formation, "Did Tao Boyang steal this formation?"

Liang Fang shook his head, and took another formation paper: "This is the formation set up by Tao Baiyang."

Jinshi took the formation and compared it with Liang Hang's restored formation in his hand.

After a while, he said slowly, "This is a bit strange."

The two formations in his hand look similar, but they are actually different. What he thought was that Tao Baiyang first managed to obtain this restoration formation, but his gold seal has limited ability and cannot completely reproduce the beam formation. Hang Fu's formation.But now it seems that most of the formation drawn by Tao Baiyang is not as reasonable as Liang Hang's restored formation, but in some places it is more subtle than Liang Hang's formation.

The formation that Tao Baiyang set up must not be the one that Liang Hang restored for reference.

"Here, and here..." Jinshi took the spirit stick and pointed at two points on the formation, "If Tao Baiyang can design such a line layout, then his level must be more than the gold seal."

"Yes," Liang Fang nodded, "So we now conclude that this formation was not drawn by Tao Boyang, and Tao Boyang should have laid out the formation according to another formation."

It is not painted by Tao Baiyang, that is to say——

"There is an array painter with a magic brush and above, who provided Tao Baiyang with a recovery array, which is different from the one restored by the national teacher." Jinshi thought thoughtfully, "But... who could this be? ?”

Tao Boyang died, very simply.

He committed suicide immediately when he was caught, and when people searched his house, they found that his wife had been poisoned to death on the bed by him.

"Oh, that's right," Jin Shi raised his eyes and asked, "How did Tao Boyang get to the right envoy of Nan Ya?"

"When the first emperor was still there, he served as a servant in Nanya," Liang Fang said, "but he was marginalized all the time. At that time, the power of Nanya was in Xie Chong's hands until the rebellion of King Wen. When the soldiers returned to the court to quell the chaos, he provided important clues, and today we were able to block Xie Chong and King Wen who were about to flee at the exit of the secret road in the suburbs of Beijing."

It turned out that this was the reason, he was on the right team at the critical moment, so he not only saved his life, but was also promoted.

"So what's the point of him doing these things..." Jinshi couldn't understand, "Is his relationship with Deyu or Dexin good?"

Liang Fang shook his head, took out a booklet and handed it to Jin Shi.

Jinshi flipped through, it was a background investigation of the relationship between Deyu and Dexin.

Deyu and Dexin's real names are Zhao Yu and Zhao Xin. They were born in a small place in the northwest. They were born in the 21st year of Fengyuan. When they encountered disasters and wars, they all lost their parents and were taken in by an old monk. The old monk passed away and fell into the hands of Ren Yazi. After several twists and turns, he was sold to the palace again and became a young eunuch.

The two orphans were able to be sold to the palace and serve the prince directly because Dexin could use formation techniques easily.

The formation technique of the two children was taught by the old monk back then. Dexin's talent is mediocre, but he can only gather energy to write. Deyu's talent is not as good as Dexin's, and he doesn't show his ability on weekdays. An An Just be an ordinary kid.

Among a group of children who couldn't even write, Dexin's ability was immediately admired by the second prince who likes to draw arrays. Dexin went to the second prince's side. He wanted to serve the second prince well, and then asked the second prince to help Deyu was also coming, but who would have thought that Deyu would be picked by the eldest prince.At that time De Xin was a little sad, but De Yu comforted him that it was good, because in this way the two were scattered in different camps, no matter whether the eldest prince or the second prince succeeded to the throne, the two of them would be able to take care of each other when the time came.

But no one expected that Dexin would die that winter.

That was the winter that Jinshi didn't want to recall, and it was the only time he experienced what it was like to be "near death".

"I don't know why the first emperor would choose such a drastic method," Jin Shi pursed his lips. He couldn't imagine that De Yu was ordered to pluck out a piece of flesh from De Xin who was covered in blood—that was the one he had depended on since childhood. Brother, "It was obviously Xu Yun who gave the order to deceive me...why did they do this to a little eunuch..."

"This is imperial power," Liang Fang sneered, "after all, the late emperor could not kill his own flesh and blood."

Jinshi is Yuanchu's apprentice, an existence that Yuanchu regards as a parent and child. At that time, Yuanchu was a hero against Beicheng, and Jinshi was a child prodigy who was supposed to draw an auspicious array on New Year's Eve, but because of Xu Yun Almost died.

But after all, Xu Yun is the emperor's own son, blood is thicker than water, even if Xu Yun really killed someone, the emperor would spare his life.

But those who work for Xu Yun are not so lucky.

A prince who breaks the law is the same as the common people, but why does the prince need to break the law himself?

Dexin was convicted only after he was ordered to spread a word on New Year's Eve.

Xu Yun's killing of Jinshi was believed to be the reason why he was possessed by a demon, and Xu Yun's demonism was attributed to Dexin's instigation, so Jinshi was an innocent victim, Xu Yun was an innocent perpetrator, and only that The helpless little eunuch who spread the word became the sinner who instigated the prince.

Instigating the prince to murder the prodigy Tuzhen, he should be executed by Ling Chi.

Jinshi closed his eyes, he sighed, and then continued to flip through the records in the handle in his hand, and then, he saw a strange name.

"What is this 'respect'?"

"It's the eunuch with the palm seal of the Chief of Rites," Liang Fang said in a deep voice, "The eunuch who stole Tu Yang is also missing now."

Now two of the parties involved are dead, and two are missing. The clues are broken here.

It's not easy to do.

"It's good to give me two available people, and it doesn't have to be a golden seal." Jinshi closed the book, he is not engaged in case-solving and reasoning, and reading these can't help Liang Fang, "But this year's Nan Ya For money, it would be great if you can get something from some of the servants, please pay attention."

According to Nanya, Liang Fang has been spending money in Kananya for the past few years, and the collapse of the flood control formation last year was also due to insufficient expenses, but Jin Shi knew that Liang Fang would not waste money on such matters related to people's livelihood people.

Liang Fang sighed: "I have already asked, Tao Boyang is indeed greedy for a lot of money, but the money that fell into the hands of those servants is not much, Tao Boyang's family has also been searched, and there is nothing of value."

Where did the money go...

"But don't worry," Liang Fang reassured him, "Whether it is in the past or in the future, the Department of Tuzhen will definitely not be stuck with the money that is related to the people's livelihood in Nanya."

If Liang Fang hadn't been stuck with the money for repairing the array before, then Tao Baiyang's propaganda that Liang Fang suppressed Nanya has caused Nanya to secretly resent Liang Fang, which is really deplorable.

Thinking of the situation where the young masters in Nanya spoke one by one, Jinshi lamented that Nanya really came from the same strain.

"But the number of array painters is indeed a problem." Liang Fang also had a headache, "But I have already troubled Yuan Jiuyao to restart the array exam as soon as possible, but during the period before the flood season, I can only trouble you."

Jinshi stayed in Chengjingyuan until the evening, Liang Fang wanted to keep him for dinner, but Lu Nianli sent someone to report that he had found some clues, so Liang Fang had to give up at this juncture.

When Jinshi came out of Chengjingyuan, he saw Yuanchu waiting at the door. Yuanchu looked up at the sky, and Jinshi walked up to him and tugged at his sleeve.

"Do you know what 'Ying Huo Shou Xin' is?" Yuan Chu asked.

The author has something to say:
