Dress as a villain

Although Xie Guang wanted to use training to bring him back, the Xie family couldn't help not cooperating, and they were obedient and obedient.

Gradually, Mrs. Xie began to have bad luck, and everything became difficult.

For example, when the merchants of the Xie family were doing business, the boat capsized repeatedly, and the people were fine, but the losses were huge.Several times Xie sent people to check and found that the capsized boat was fine, but accidents would happen.

Halfway through the grain transported from Nanyu to Tianjing, the sky was clear and the weather was fine.As a result, white thunder suddenly fell from the sky during the day, and it happened to hit the Xie family's iron flag, killing more than a dozen Xie family members on the spot, and the [-] shi of grain they were escorting were burnt by the fire struck by the thunder.

When this matter spread to Xintianjing, the entire Xie family was shocked, and the people of Xintianjing spread the news, so they thought it was an accident.

Unexpectedly, God was short-sighted, and there was another heavy rain at night. All the reservoirs released flood water, and walked around a safe place. Only the Xie family's base camp was diverted, and it directly flooded the Xie family's south gate, resulting in the death of 1000 people.

The Xie family was once again shocked, even though it was the Xie family left by Xie Yan, it was still his own clan.

Xie Guang went from the North Camp to the South Gate to condolences to the Xie family. The Xie family here raised their camps and mourned.Xie Guang's heart was extremely heavy, he didn't know what to say when he saw his subordinates.

He stayed at the south gate that night just to comfort his brothers. As a result, his Beida camp also suffered that night, and the goalkeeper Xie Fengling was washed away by the flood. All his subordinates were gone, and even the corpses could not be found.

After that, he became seriously ill.

This time, the people of Xintianjing and the Xie clan finally had no choice but to believe in evil.

Beidaying, the North Gate, is a well-known land area, and the canals and water transportation are the most developed. Even if there is a flood, the flood discharge will avoid the terrain of Beidaying, the North Gate.It can't be reached at all, no matter how bad it is, there are two rivers carrying loads, but no one thought that the flood was going upstream.

Although no one was drowned in the Beidaying camp, property losses in the barracks were heavy, at least tens of thousands of gold.

When Xie Guang heard about this, he passed out directly in the South Gate barracks.

Xie's second in command suddenly passed out, completely throwing Xie into chaos.No matter how much Li Ling hated the Xie family, he did not regard them as enemies, but as colleagues whom his colleagues hated.

Now that such a big incident suddenly happened to the Xie family, as the Minister of the Military Machine Pavilion, he couldn't sit idly by.

Soon there were rumors that there might be a flood in the land of Jiujin, and the local people believed it and rushed to Xintianjing. The Xie family didn't care too much because of the family's bad luck, so Xintianjing squeezed in at least 20 people.

Sure enough, there was a flood in Jiujin at night, and no one died.

Just when everyone thought it was a natural and man-made disaster, a gold mine rushed out of a certain town in the land of the Nine Jin Dynasty.The newly promoted captains raised their troops and surrounded the town one after another, waiting for Li Ling to come back and issue orders.

Li Ling wanted to go to condolences to Mrs. Xie, but when he heard that there was a gold mine in the place he managed, he sent his son Li to check it out, regardless of Mrs. Xie.

Li Jin saw that a town was full of gold, and there was something that looked like coal rocks next door, so he immediately sent troops to dig, and as a result, a coal mine was dug in the town next to the gold mine.

The land of the Nine Jin Dynasties is not suitable for growing grain, and most of them are used to build houses and live in people.As a result, no one thought that the lack of food in many places in the Nine Jin Dynasty was not because the land was not fertile, but because there was another universe.

Especially the coal stone, I heard that only Huayin State owns it, and Huayin State lost half of it because of the coal stone, and was divided by Hu Xiong.His Royal Highness Feng Ning and Marshal took back half of Huayin Kingdom, but there are still no coal mines.

The news spread all over the streets and alleys, the local government moved the government office, and the army moved in and began to use the two towns as important resource centers, and no idlers were allowed to approach them.

In the same night, the land of the Nine Jin Dynasty turned from a poor village into a gold mine, a gold mine that even the Xie family coveted.

But Xie's internal position is in chaos, and he has no time to manage the land of Jiujin.

Nine Jin officials reported the matter to Si Qitong, and Si Qitong ordered the recruits to guard it, and no one could develop it without her order.

Some people in the Xie family have moved their minds, but the clan is in chaos now, and it is impossible to organize people to rob it.

Because Xie Guang was diagnosed by the doctor as dying soon, he was terminally ill.It is a symptom called blood poisoning.Xie Guang and Wang collapsed on the spot.

It never occurred to them that the head of the family did not die on the battlefield, but got seriously ill in a peaceful day, and would die of a serious illness instead of dying like a man on the battlefield.

Xie Guang suddenly felt out of breath and out of breath, so he lay on the bed that day and couldn't move.

Mrs. Wang cried all night, and immediately wrote letters to her daughters in the two places, and sent one to Xie Lanzhi by the way.However, this letter was in Si Qitong's hands.

When Si Qitong opened the letter, her lips trembled, her eyes couldn't hide her shock: "General, how could..."

Lu Qing took a peek at the side, she shook her head and regretted, "Marshal Xie is the only family fortune of the Xie family. In her heyday, the Xie family naturally enjoyed the blessings. Now Marshal Xie is in great trouble."

"The Xie family, which rose and fell according to her fate, will naturally be implicated."

All in all, Xie's good days are coming to an end.

Si Qitong closed her eyes in grief, and received the good news from Jiujin again. It was mixed, good and bad, and her mood was complicated. Her fortune was getting better and better, but Lanzhi was going downhill, which made her even more painful.

Seeing this, Lu Qing didn't know whether to report good news or bad news, so she just kept her mouth shut.

Xie Ying and Xie Ji, who were far away, received the news that Xie Guang was seriously ill. Xie Ying immediately asked Li Li to send her back by boat, but Xie Ji's eyes were dull. In his own hands, he was defeated by a serious illness.

He tore off the paper and shouted in disbelief: "Impossible, impossible at all, that old bastard eats well, sleeps soundly, and has no bad habits other than drinking!"

"Why, how can you say that you get sick when you get sick!?"

Xie Ying was silent for a while, her eyes were red and she asked him for instructions: "Uncle Wu, I want to go back and have a look."

When Li Li heard about this, he sent a military division to inform him of another important matter.

Xie Lanzhi went to Niliupi for a decisive battle with General Hu Xiong and Aertu.

After Xie Ji and Xie Ying heard about it, they gathered together like thunder.

The military division originally believed in ghosts and gods, but now combined with the recent events of the Xie clan, and after the master of the Xie clan agreed to Niliupi, there have been natural disasters and man-made disasters in Xintianjing that have harmed no one and the people.It only hurt Xie Shi.

Even a fool can understand what the sky means.

Li Li held Xie Ying back even more, and asked her to lead a group of five thousand Xie clan to Jinghua Mansion, assist His Highness Feng Ning to guard the rear, and sit in charge for Xie Lanzhi.

Xie Ying thought that the mistress was suffering more pain and pressure than anyone else, so she didn't say anything, and led 5000 people to Jinghua Mansion that day.

Xie Ji could only stay there and continue to maintain order.But he is always restless, and he has nightmares when he sleeps at night. Either he dreamed that Xie Guang died of illness on the bed, Wang committed suicide by crashing into a coffin, or the marshal's decapitated body was standing beside his bed, or the marshal was chained to the execution ground. On the street, there was no one at the entrance of the market, but there were two things, one black and one white, which kept entangled her.

Otherwise, the marshal had two long guns stuck in his chest, and he kept crawling on the ground, dragging out a scarlet bloodstain.

Xie Ji was so frightened that the two dared not sleep at night.

The ancestral hall in the southern region also had problems. Xie Shangguang's grandma, Da Zongpo, dreamed of Xie Zhengrong every night, blaming her for serving the chaotic master regardless of the truth.

Dazong went to burn incense every day, and soon dreamed that the marshal was standing beside her bed, Xie Lanzhi's hair was disheveled, her body was wet, her black armor was dripping with blood, there were three blood holes on her body, and the bones inside were faintly visible.

The great grandma was so frightened that she went to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors and bless the marshal that night.

Xie Shiyi even became incontinent because of the nightmare.

The Southern Territory's great income this year should have been something to be happy about, but the bottom line of the Xie family suddenly broke out in turmoil, venting their long-standing grievances and looting most of the food.

The Xie Clan in the Southern Region sent troops to suppress it, and thousands of refugees from the Shiguo Mansion entered the border, causing unrest inside and outside the Southern Region.

When Shiyang of Shiguo Mansion heard about this, he was secretly happy that he couldn't find the north.

No matter how powerful the Xie Clan's army in the Southern Region is, it may not be able to withstand natural disasters and man-made disasters. Now, no matter how good the opportunity is, Shi Guofu dare not take advantage of the chaos to invade the Southern Region, because they are still a subsidiary country.

Xie Lanzhi is still alive.

The Great Grandmother of the Southern Region stepped forward to suppress the rebellion, and then strengthened the supervision of the distribution of the new decree to the clan, and then reluctantly suspended the two sides.

On the day Dazong Po wrote to Xintianjing, the tablets in Xie's ancestral hall swayed, and Xie Zhengrong's tablet even fell to the ground.When Xie's disciples found out, they had a very bad face and told the eldest grandma about it.

Dazongpo immediately asked the wizard to come and invite the spirit.Unexpectedly, the sorcerer fell to the ground on the way, he must say that Mrs. Xie is facing bad luck now, and his skills are not enough to hold him back.

The Great Grandmother paid a high price to hire someone, and two eminent monks and a famous Taoist priest came. After hearing about the nightmare of the Great Grandmother and Xie Shishi, the eminent monk began to chant the Great Compassion Mantra for the ancestors of Xie's ancestral hall. The mantra of the past life is beyond the limit.

The Taoist priest did not dare to recite the scriptures, but directly told Dazong Po: The crux of the matter came from the master of the Xie family, she was no longer tolerated by the heavens, and she was about to die early.The Xie family is prosperous because of her, and will only decline because of her.

The rise and fall is all about one person, and he is doomed to decline within half a year.

When the Xie family in the Southern Region heard about it, they immediately drove the Taoist priest out of the Southern Region, and even shouted that his Taoist temple should be demolished.Dazong Po came forward to stop her, and she cast her eyes on the two eminent monks for help.

The two eminent monks recited the scriptures for three days and three nights, very devoutly. On the fourth day, the main beam of the ancestral hall suddenly broke and almost killed the two eminent monks.

Xie Zhengrong's tablet was broken in half by the falling main beam.

At this time, the two eminent monks finally couldn't hold back their fear, and told the great grandma: "The poor monks can't communicate with the underworld, and the ancestors of the Xie family are even blocked on the road to the underworld, all clamoring to take the life of the Lord Xie."

Dazong Po fainted immediately with a bolt from the blue.

The ancestral hall collapsed, and the warnings of the eminent monks and Taoists spread to Xintianjing.The Xie clan had no choice but to believe in evil, and no one thought that in just ten days, Lord Xie would go to Niliupi to fight the General King. , Xie's big and small are in bad luck.

Mrs. Xie further confirmed the rumors, thinking that it was the retribution of the Grand Marshal who killed his father and relatives.

As the head of the wife in the backyard, Mrs. Wang donated a lot in Tianjing, opened a granary, and distributed cattle and sheep to the poor, hoping to get forgiveness from heaven.

She affected everyone in the Xie clan with one move, and the people of Xintianjing had to believe that the reason why the Xie clan was unlucky was because Master Xie was cursed by the ancestors.

And who would be the person cursed by the ancestors?It will only be unfilial children and grandchildren!Only then will the ancestors and ancestors be chased and killed.

For a while, stories about Xie Lanzhi's killing of his father and relatives began to spread in the streets and alleys, and the attitude of the students towards Xie Lanzhi became vacillating. They wanted to praise the peace she brought to Xintianjing, and even the whole south, while they were eager to move He wants to use filial piety to suppress people and expand his influence.

It wasn't until Si Qi and Tong Yiyi ordered Xintianjing to stop the flow, ordering the government to arrest those who spread rumors and cause trouble, and shake the rear, and if caught seriously, they could be executed.

Si Qitong executed a group of storytellers and students who wrote articles admonishing them. For a time, the literati in Jiujin and Xintianjing were terrified, thinking that His Highness Fengning was going to engage in a literary prison.

Everyone was in panic all day long. The streets were full of officers and soldiers arresting people, and even the new recruits joined in the arrests.

Zhang Changle and Xi Wei's people even caught a lot of secret work hidden in Xintianjing.

The Xie family was terrified, internally chaotic, but fortunately Xie Guang came out to take charge of the overall situation despite his illness, and Wu Qiu also held several positions while coordinating with Tianjing's political affairs, while helping to deal with Xie's affairs.

Xie Xia learned that his second brother was sick, so he asked for a leave of absence in Weidu to come back to visit him.

As soon as General Zuo came back, Xie's family settled down a bit, but every night Xie's baby cried, the dog barked, the rooster crowed, and various visions caused many superstitious people to move out of the house.

They began to move into nearby Taoist temples and temples, and these places became overcrowded.

Xie Xia originally wanted to report the incident of Weidu's capsized boats, but now seeing the chaos in the family, people are panicking, and some people are rumoring that the old marshal turned into a ghost to seek revenge.

Xie Xia doesn't believe in evil at all, and just thinks it's just a moment of bad luck.It wasn't until he passed by a restaurant that a flowerpot fell from the sky and hit his head, and the flowers bloomed, he began to believe in evil.

Xie Guang endured the discomfort to suppress the gossip, and finally suppressed the bottom-level Xie family.

The fact that Xie Xia's head was blooming was spread to the clan again, it's true that misfortunes never come singly, almost all the upper class members of the Xie clan suffered some kind of bad luck.

The timid people think that there are ghosts following them and specifically murdering them, and the brave ones patrol every night with Zhang Fu, for fear that it will be their turn next.

Now more and more people in the Xie family eat fast and chant Buddha, and no one maintains order in the vacated posts. Xie Guang arrested a few people in the street to punish them, and released them afterwards.

In the end, Xie Guang couldn't bear it anymore. He privately dismissed six central defenders, seven thousand households, and more than 30 hundred households.

Then he was replaced by people from the lower level of the Xie family, but the bottom line was mixed, and he caused a lot of troubles as soon as he took office.

Xie Guang had to wipe their buttocks for them, and instead suffered from the chaos, he had no choice but to dismiss these people and promote officials from below, one hundred households to one thousand households, one thousand households to Zhongwei, etc., so as to barely maintain the order of Xie's family.

One night, Xie Guang finally couldn't bear to tell his brother Xie Xia the truth: "Marshal, I'm afraid the time has come!"

Xie Xia said fearfully, "Second brother, please don't talk nonsense."

"I don't want to talk nonsense. Since I got sick, I have trouble sleeping day and night. I finally dreamed of my old man once." Xie Guang said with a heavy expression, "I have never dreamed of the old man in the ten years since his death, but I happened to be in Xie Guang. When Shi was in bad luck, the old man stood by my bed and would not listen to sighs."

"Then the marshal opened the door and came into my room. She just stared at me, and she didn't answer no matter what I asked."

"After that, the old man yelled at me even more. I don't remember what he scolded. Finally, the old man left after the marshal left my room."

Xie Xia felt creepy, why didn't he dream of it?And after his head was smashed, Xiwei sent people to investigate and said it was man-made.Also caught the culprit.But he still finds it unbelievable.

"Except for you, big brother, I heard that many people in the clan dream of their uncles and grandpas." Xie Xia touched his bandaged head: "The eldest grandma also wrote to say that she always dreamed of the marshal standing in a hole covered in blood." She didn't say anything at the bedside, she just bleeds. But it made Dazong Po's heart ache."

After all, it was the child she watched grow up.

Xie Guang's face became more and more solemn: "And your sister-in-law, last night I dreamed that Gou Ying fell into the water and drowned, today I must call her back to Tianjing if she wants to die."

"What do I call this juncture? Gou Ying must lead someone to guard the rear for the Marshal. Otherwise, if the Hu Huns violate the treaty and attack Jinghua Mansion, the Marshal will suffer from the enemy!"

"Eleventh elders even dreamed that the marshal was crushed to death by rocks in Niliupi."

"Sixth brother, now I have to believe it."

Xie Xia felt his body tremble when he heard that, and he said, "But I never dreamed about it."

Xie Guang told him not to think about it too much. Now that things are up to now, the only way to stabilize people's hearts is to wait for the marshal to come back from Niliupi.

It's just a moment of bad luck for them, Mrs. Xie.

After Jiujin discovered another town with a coal mine on the top of a hill, Li Ling immediately ordered people to strictly guard it, and then restricted fireworks from wandering around.

The more good news from the Nine Jin Dynasty, the more unlucky people on Xie's side one after another.

Some were corrupt officials who were caught by Hai Yun and went to prison directly, so Xie Shi was also unlucky and scared himself to death at night.

It was the first time that Xie showed someone who was scared to death by him.Members of the Xie clan will skillfully chant Amitabha Buddha when they collect the corpse.

There was a lot of trouble on Xie's side.

At this time, there is no cloud in Niliupi, the cloud is not stained, and the sky is not a trace of impurities.

After Xie Lanzhi entered the hunting ground, Altu also came alone.

The range of the hunting ground is very wide, at least a kilometer away. Occasionally, small animals run past in the forest, birds chirp, and people meet on horseback.Everything seemed so natural, like a meeting between friends, without any sense of tension.

Altu watched Xie Lanzhi with his back to the sun, the shadows falling from the top of her head, showing a dark layer of black air floating on her forehead.

He first said hello: "Marshal looks bad, maybe he hasn't recovered from his injury?"

"General, seeing you coming in slowly, I thought your injury was not healed." Xie Lanzhi replied.

"I'm fine, but the Marshal is going to be in bad luck." Altu felt that she was about to die under his gun, so he was no longer afraid, and dared to say anything: "Do you know what this place is called?"

Xie Lanzhi said: "Ni Liupi of the State of Lu."

"Yes, it is the place where you are buried, Marshal!" Altu shook his head, his expression could not hide his complacency, and he even looked like a winner.

Xie Lanzhi just smiled lightly, and responded to him: "Why do you know?"

"Now that things have happened, I'm not afraid of you running away." Altu said, "Marshal Xie has heard that disasters come from the sky, and heaven and earth are destroyed."

"This is the punishment for the unfaithful and unfilial."

Xie Lanzhi thought it was funny, and she retorted: "If I pacify Tianjing and sweep away all the deaths and disasters created by various Jins, which are the source of my troubles, I am willing to accept this kind of punishment from heaven."

"But there are perpetrators in this world who are more cruel than me, and who have harmed generations."

"If I am all punished by heaven, then Aqina will be punished to death soon."

Altu sneered endlessly: "Marshal Xie, the king is a monarch whose crimes lie in the present age, and whose merits are worth a thousand years."

"Everything the king does is for the common prosperity of the Central Plains. People today may complain about him, but future generations will definitely respect him as an emperor through the ages."

"The king is a man of destiny. He is different from you. He was born in the sky and came here at the right time. How can you be comparable to him?"

Xie Lanzhi didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore, after she showed a long sword from the back of her waist, Artu also shut up.

At this time, the blue sky, which was originally clear and blue, suddenly gathered the top of the dark clouds, and the menacing momentum gathered over the Niliupi. The gray area gave people a depressing atmosphere. The people and the army looked at the sky in astonishment, saying that it will rain when it rains.Looks like it's still raining.

The people evacuated back to the capital.

The troops began to set up tents with each other, and the envoys of Lu State began to worry that their own people could not stop the troops brought by Xie and Hu Xiong.

Xie Lanzhi looked up at the sky, the light was covered by dark clouds, making her black armor claws look fierce like a shadow in the night, and there was a layer of death-like dark lines on her forehead.

Looking at Altu again, the sky was covered with dark clouds, but a ray of light leaked from the overlapping clouds hit him, making his silver armor glisten, like a heavenly soldier descending.On the contrary, Xie Lanzhi is like a monster crawling out of the abyss, she has no mercy, she is caught in the abyss of unforeseen circumstances, as if she is about to be killed by Altu, who is like a heavenly soldier on the opposite side.

Xie Lanzhi looked at Tianming as if standing on his side, and could even see Altu's expression of God's will, and he treated her like a savior.

"Look at this day!" Altu raised his index finger upwards, with an unrestrained aura: "Everyone is on the king's side. The king must be the one whose destiny belongs!"

"This general will take the place of the king to attack the variable who should be eliminated!"

Xie Lanzhi had no expression on his face, watching Altu's gesture of justice, adoring Aqina, just like Ji Xie's admiration for her.

The difference is that she never lied to Mrs. Xie, she put all her thoughts and attitudes there, those who accepted Mrs. Xie would obey her, and those who opposed her would be killed by her.

On the contrary, Aqina, who claimed to be the man of destiny, was actually just deceiving him.

Altu kept his promise to declare the regime of the Cosmopolitan Mansion, which shows that he is a man of love.

Today's blind worship of Aqina makes him a sad existence.

Xie Lanzhi looked at him with a little regret and said: "Altu, I just realized that you are a naive person."

"I don't hate you." Suddenly, her brows burst into a sullen look: "But I hate Aqina more and more!"
