The villain system of Mingyue in Qin Dynasty
Chapter 293 Songhai Storm Qin Huang’s Eastern Tour
The peasant family was in chaos, the Confucian family rebelled, and the Mohist family and the Yin-Yang family were on guard against each other, and suspicions grew day by day.
Fourteenth brother, is this the gift you gave me before I arrived in Songhai?
In the spacious carriage, Fusu, the eldest son of the empire, clenched his fists tightly, feeling helpless.
I thought that with the power I had accumulated over the years, I could finally compete with the Imperial Crown Prince. However, he did not expect that before he reached Songhai, the forces under him that had surrendered had already been defeated.
Shen Nong's order showed that although the farm family would not be torn apart, the six branches were separated and it was difficult to work together. One beats seven, and a dozen elders who have not asked about the affairs of the farm family for many years have made his many years of planning come to nothing. Farmers also almost turned from being Fusu's biggest help to a source of disaster. If it hadn't been for the Shadow Guard's intervention, he might not have been able to come to Songhai so safely now.
The book-burning act of Xiaoshengxianzhuang not only shocked Fusu, but also criticized this behavior within Confucianism. The status of Confucianism in the world of the little sage is shaky. Fu Nian did this even at the risk of splitting Confucianism. What does this mean? It really chilled Fusu's heart.
Half a month ago, the Mohist envoy came to visit in secret. In his words, he talked about the Yin Yang Family secretly joining Ying Ziyi in order to attack the Mohist Family. And the envoys sent by the Yin and Yang family said that nothing happened.
The two sect envoys had a verbal spat in front of him yesterday. Looking at the posture, if he hadn't been there, they would have taken action long ago. After all, the Mo family and the Yin Yang family have an old grudge and have been fighting for hundreds of years. Even if he has surrendered to his subordinates, this hatred cannot be let go.
The long queue of more than a thousand people moved forward slowly. On both sides of the long long road, there were green forests and mountains. In the distance, the terrain was flat and broad, and the outline of a seaside city could be vaguely seen.
"Your Highness, we are almost reaching the Songhai realm."
Chang Wenjun rode a horse and reminded outside.
"Is it finally here?" Master Fusu secretly thought in his heart, feeling unspeakably nervous. Ahead, there will be countless tests waiting for you.
Mohism, Confucianism, Yin-Yang Sect, Taoism... the relationships between sects and within sects are complicated. Fusu wants to take them under his control one by one to fight against the prince of the empire. He can't escape the problem.
"Your Highness, the eldest son, the prince is still in Songhai City. When should we go to see him?"
These more than a thousand troops have stopped outside Songhai and will be stationed in the palace outside the city. The leader of the Shadow Guards, Meng Yi, went to greet the young master when he helped Su get out of the carriage, and suddenly asked.
The eldest son Fusu and Prince Qin are at odds with each other. This is basically a consensus in the empire. If Fusu is asked to see Prince Qin, doesn't this make it clear that Fusu should be humbled?
The Meng clan has always remained neutral in the battle for the imperial reserve. This time, for what?
Chang Wenjun, who was greeted with Meng Yi, was about to get angry, but Fusu waved his hand to stop him.
"Sir Meng Yi, I am currently responsible for arranging matters related to my father's eastward tour. The responsibilities are heavy and the time is tight. Do you understand?" Fusu looked at Meng Yi. He was born in the Meng clan, and now he is in charge of the Shadow Guard. His position in the empire can be said to be very important.
"General, I understand." Meng Yi cupped his hands and sighed slightly in his heart. "In accordance with the order of His Majesty the First Emperor, I will escort the Yin Yang Family's Immortal Gathering Pill to Songhai. Two days ago, all the disciples of the Yin Yang Family have arrived at Songhai. At this moment, the five elders and two guardians of the Yin Yang Family are waiting for His Royal Highness in the palace. "
"Wait? Why don't they come out to greet His Royal Highness the eldest son?" Lord Changwen asked, looking quite dissatisfied.
"This..." There was something unspeakable on Meng Yi's face.
"I understand." When the eldest son Fusu saw Meng Yi's appearance, he walked straight towards the palace without saying anything.
This palace was built in the Jiang Qi period and has a long history, but it was originally built as a military fortress. It was at the horns of Songhai, a prosperous coastal city, to defend against foreign enemies.
Over the past hundreds of years, successive Qi kings have added to and repaired it. Until Qin destroyed Qi and unified the world, this fortress, which was used for defense on the front line, had lost its military significance and was transformed into a palace.
The heavy iron-clad wooden door slowly opened, and as the shrill horn sounded, Donghai County soldiers holding bronze gongs on both sides of the road knelt on one knee to welcome Fusu's arrival.
It is not an exaggeration to call this palace a small city. More than a thousand people from Young Master Fusu filed in and settled in the huge palace complex within the city wall, but not even one tenth of the entire palace was filled.
"What exactly is going on?" Fusu asked as he led Chang Wenjun and Meng Yi, leaving behind the entourage behind him, to the main hall where the senior officials of the Yin Yang family were waiting.
"The five elders of the Yin Yang family and the two guardians were all seriously injured and are currently recovering in the palace." Meng Yi replied.
"What? What's going on?" Fusu was surprised. What happened? All the senior officials of the Yin Yang family were seriously injured?
"Last night, another disciple of the Yin Yang family who entered the palace secretly ate the Immortal Gathering Pill. The five elders and the two guardians were seriously injured in order to kill that disciple." Meng Yi replied.
"Oh? What happened at that time?" Fusu asked.
"It happened very suddenly and very quickly. By the time I arrived with the Shadow Guards, the top brass of the Yin Yang Family had already killed so many disciples and even burned their bodies. I don't know the specific situation yet." Meng Yi answered honestly.
"Interesting." Young Master Fusu raised the corner of his mouth and thought to himself: It doesn't matter the last time or this time! The top executives of the Yin Yang Family did not hesitate to be seriously injured. What did they want to hide?
The door of the palace was opened. The two guardians of the Yin Yang family were sitting in the center, and the five elders were sitting around outside. In all four directions of the palace, several rows of candlesticks were lit, illuminating the entire palace.
The senior officials of the Yin Yang Family seemed to be activating some kind of magic circle. Five-color ghost fires were circulating outside the circle. The faces of the Moon God and Star Soul in the center were suddenly bright and dark.
"Your Highness, they have been sitting here all night." Meng Yi said.
"Yes!" Fusu nodded and watched quietly. Fusu's martial arts cultivation is not very advanced, but it can be seen that the healing process of the Yin and Yang family has entered a critical stage.
Two kinds of light surrounding the fingertips of Star Soul and Moon God suddenly rose into the sky. One purple and one blue, bursting out with violent brilliance.
The light was dazzling, and when Fusu and others opened their eyes again, the senior officials of the Yin and Yang family had already stood up and walked up to Young Master Fusu.
"His Royal Highness, the eldest son, is here. We have never been far away, and I hope that your highness, the eldest son, will forgive me." Moon God and all the senior officials of the Yin Yang Family saluted.
"You're welcome, Lord Luna. How are your injuries?"
"Thank you, His Highness Fusu, for asking. We are all fine." Yue Shen leaned over slightly and replied.
"That's good." Young Master Fusu said, with a faint smile on his face, he walked forward slowly and sat on the throne that used to belong to King Qi in front of the palace.
"I wonder if you all know the name Ji Ruqianlong?" Young Master Fusu asked as everyone sat down one by one.
The elders of the Yin and Yang family looked at each other, obviously confused. Moon God stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and said to Young Master Fusu: "Ji Ru is the disciple I brought back from the city. I wonder why His Highness suddenly mentioned her?"
"Recently, I heard a rumor that His Excellency Dong Huang wanted to hand over the Yin Yang family to this woman."
Xinghun's face was obviously a little surprised. Where did this Ji Ruqianlong come from? Within the Yin Yang Family, Star Soul and Moon God are at odds with each other. In the final analysis, they are also fighting over whose hands the Yin Yang Family will belong to in the future.
"Oh? In order to fulfill the great trust of His Majesty the First Emperor, we are escorting the Immortal Gathering Pill here. I have not seen His Excellency Donghuang for a long time. I wonder where Your Highness heard this from?" Moon Goddess' expression remained unchanged as he asked.
"Where did I hear this rumor? I don't have to worry about His Majesty the Moon Goddess. What I just want to know at this moment is, is this rumor false or true?"
"Ji Ru is extremely talented. At such a young age, her cultivation of Yin and Yang arts has reached a level that most of the Yin Yang family disciples cannot match. Your Excellency Donghuang wants to entrust the Yin Yang family to her. If this is true, I Of course, there is no objection. However, Ji Ru is still young, and even if she wants to take charge of the Yin Yang family, it will be many years later. I wonder why Your Highness cares so much?"
"I didn't want to get involved in the internal affairs of the Yin Yang family. However, the second half of this rumor made me have to pay attention." Fusu put away the smile on his face, and the gentle curves on his face were faintly It looks a bit sharp due to the coldness exposed.
"Oh? I don't know what it is?"
"His Excellency Donghuang wants to marry this girl to my fourteenth brother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Empire. Does Your Majesty the Moon Goddess know what this move means?"
The hall suddenly fell into silence. The Moon God knew that if this rumor was true, it would mean that Donghuang Taiyi would hand over the entire Yin and Yang family to Prince Qin. So in the eyes of Young Master Fusu, his group had some ulterior motives.
It's just that the most embarrassing thing in the palace is not the elders and guardians of the Yin Yang family, but the leader of the Shadow Guards, Meng Yi. Young Master Fusu's seemingly plain words had a clear meaning.
"Your Highness, the eldest son, there are still some matters to be dealt with among the Shadow Guards. Please give me your permission." Meng Yi broke the dull atmosphere, walked out, and said.
Meng Yi is a smart man, and he knows that if he continues to listen, he may not be able to follow the rules of a monarch and his ministers.
"Go ahead!" Fusu said calmly, and he was unwilling to make things difficult for Meng Yi.
Meng Yi thanked him and walked out slowly.
"Your Highness, the eldest son, the position of the Yin Yang family has never changed. As for whether this rumor is true or false, it may not be important." Moon God said, with a glint in his eyes.
Fusu looked at the Moon God and seemed to understand the meaning of her words, and said, "If it is really as the Moon God said, that's fine."
Everyone in the Yin Yang family retreated, and Lord Chang Wen said, "Your Highness, what does Moon God mean?"
"What the Moon God means is that Donghuang Taiyi has not been involved in the affairs of the Yin-Yang Family for many years. Even if the little girl named Ji Ru really takes charge of the Yin-Yang Family in the future, how much prestige does she have to control the many masters within the Yin-Yang Family? What's more? Or an heir who wants to marry his fourteenth brother as his concubine?" Young Master Fusu smiled, showing a sense of stability that was not alarmed at all.
Looking at the smile on Fusu's face, Chang Wenjun secretly thought that His Highness had really changed. He is no longer the weak child who only cared about benevolence and righteousness. Over the years, His Highness has grown step by step and become the king that Lord Changping and he expected.
"Your Highness, Meng Yi's attitude is indeed a bit ambiguous. How can we not guard against it?" Chang Wenjun whispered, seeming to still be unhappy with Meng Yi's behavior just now.
"Mr. Changwen is overly worried. Meng Yi is a pure minister who only thinks about the interests of the empire." After saying this, Young Master Fusu sighed slightly: "It's just that he doesn't understand the relationship between me and my fourteenth brother. This competition has reached a point where it is inevitable."
Everyone inside and outside the empire was watching, including the hundreds of families who had pledged their services to Fusu, the old clans of the Six Kingdoms, the officials and dignitaries in Xianyang City, and the children of the clan.
They are waiting for a result, that is, does the person they choose to take refuge in have the ability to compete with the prince of the empire?
Fusu must give them confidence, in order to maintain the internal stability of his own power, to maintain his own prestige, and to use it as capital to defeat his younger brother in the future.
"Your Highness, if this is the case, what should we do?" Chang Wenjun asked.
"Little Saint's Manor."
….
Xianyang.
In the Hehe Emperor's Palace, the Supreme One is in the case.
Inside the palace, the ever-burning lamps are kept on day and night.
Under the case of Emperor Qin Yingzheng, a bronze-faced man was kneeling on one knee.
"Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. The Yin Yang family and Young Master Fusu have arrived at Songhai."
"I understand." There was a hint of fatigue on Emperor Qin's face, and under the light of the lights, the paleness on his face was obscured.
"You go down first!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." The figure of the bronze-faced man flashed and disappeared into the palace.
Emperor Qin dropped the bamboo slip in his hand, looked at the lines on his palm, and sighed: "Immortality! Is immortality really possible in this world?"
The night was slightly cool, and the starry sky outside the palace was bright, but the Supreme Being in the palace fell into a state of confusion that he had never experienced before. The most taboo thing for Emperor Qin in normal times was the word "death", but his body was getting worse day by day, and he could still feel this.
Emperor Qin had not read the ancient books secretly stored in the Zhou Dynasty. The records about the elixir mentioned above were undoubtedly warning future emperors not to blindly pursue such things that went against the will of heaven.
"Maybe it's time." Emperor Qin murmured.
Ying Ziyi has been established as the prince of the empire for several years, but he is often absent from Xianyang, which is undoubtedly detrimental to the empire. The reason why Emperor Qin tolerated it was because the empire needed a qualified heir.
Fusu didn't understand this, and neither did Ying Ziyi.
