    At this time, forty or fifty people were gathered in the hall of a mansion in Xikengzi Hutong, Beijing, looking solemnly at the spiritual tablet enshrined in front of the statue. It was the spiritual tablet of Mu Tianbo, Duke of Guizhou.

    In 1644, Wu Sangui, the former commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan Customs in the Ming Dynasty, surrendered to Huang Taiji, Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, and led Qing soldiers into the customs. The Guanning cavalry led by him fought all the way from Shanhaiguan to Kunming Prefecture.

    After the fall of Yunnan, the then Duke of Guizhou, Mu Tianbo, accepted the favor of the emperor and refused to be canonized by the Qing court. He fled to Burma with Emperor Yongli. Emperor Yongli was later captured alive by Wu Sangui in Burma, while Mu Tianbo was killed in the rebellion.  die in battle,

    Therefore, the grievances between Prince Mu¡¯s Mansion and Prince Pingxi¡¯s Mansion cannot exist under the same blue sky, that is, they are irreconcilable.

    "Dad, no matter how difficult it is, my son will lead the whole family of Prince Mu, vowing to kill the traitor Wu Sangui, drive away the Tatars, and return the Ming Dynasty to me!"

    Mu Jiansheng, the leader, lit three sticks of incense at the memorial tablet, knelt down and kowtowed, and everyone behind him followed suit.

    After three kowtows, Mu Jiansheng stood up and said to the people behind him, "Everyone, after the last disaster in the Shenxing Division, our Prince Mu's Mansion lost more than ten brothers. It was Xiao Wang who underestimated the enemy and miscalculated. I didn't expect that there were actually many people in the Shenxing Division.  Such a master, Xiao Wang is ashamed of all of you!"

    "Young prince, you don't have to blame yourself. No one would have thought that Qing Gou Commander's martial arts was so powerful that even brother Yuan Hui couldn't come back alive!"

    Liu Yizhou said angrily, "If I see that man, I will cut him into pieces to avenge my dead brother!"

    "If I don't kill this person, how can I express my hatred!" The woman in black gauze said. Unfortunately, when she said this, her voice was very soft, and she obviously lacked confidence.

    "You're right. If you don't kill this person, how can you vent your hatred!" Suddenly, a cold voice came, and nine men in black clothes and white gauze scarves walked into the hall.

    The two leaders were the white-browed and red-browed men who had dealt with Ye Chen several times and later redeemed themselves with 10,000 survival points. Behind them, one was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a long sword, and the other was wearing a coarse cloth and tied around his waist.  Holding a bull's knife,

    The remaining five people all had indifferent expressions, and their eyes were filled with a trace of gray air. The moment they saw it, their scalps went numb, and coldness shot up their backs. This was because their hands were stained with too much blood.  As a result, the evil spirit condenses into substance and takes shape on the outside.

    "Polite," Mu Jiansheng bowed to the nine people and said to Bai Mei and the two, but his voice was very cold, "On that day, Xiao Wang believed in the words of the two of them and asked more than a dozen brothers to accompany them, but in the end only one came back. Xiao Wang  I hope you two can give me an explanation!"

    "Young Master Mu, more than twenty brothers of our Heaven and Earth Society's Qingmu Hall also died in the battle that night. Brother Xu and Brother Feng both died tragically one after another. If the two brothers hadn't saved each other, the consequences would have been" the Taoist priest said in a low voice.  He said, "It concerns the situation of that day. I will explain it in detail to the young master after Rong Pindao has passed. At this moment, we are here for Lu Yifeng's matter!"

    "What about Lu Yifeng?"

    Mu Jiansheng was slightly startled and said, "Everyone has also found out the purpose of Lu Yifeng's work report this time!"

    "That's right!" said the white-browed man, "Lu Yifeng apparently came to Beijing to report on his duties, but in fact he bribed Ao Bai and officials at all levels in the capital for Wu Sangui. As for the amount of this tribute, I estimate that it is at least one million taels, far away  It¡¯s not just a few carts of gold and silver, I¡¯m afraid there are masters accompanying you!¡±

    "More than a hundred foreigners?"

    As soon as these words came out, everyone in Prince Mu¡¯s Mansion exclaimed. At this moment, Mu Jiansheng¡¯s expression also changed.

    ¡­¡­

    At this time, in the main hall of the pro-army yamen, the three deputy commanders stood solemnly, waiting for Ye Chen's instructions.

    "Sir, the duty of the pro-military camp is to guard the palace and be in charge of the confinement of the three palaces. The arrest of rebels is the purview of the infantry camp. It is not only against the rules for my pro-military camp to go to arrest them, but there are more than 30,000 people in the infantry camp.  , in case there is an investigation" One of the three deputy commanders said cautiously, looking at Ye Chen from time to time,

    "You don't want to go?" Ye Chen said softly and glanced at him.

    At this glance, the deputy commander immediately trembled, and his heart seemed to be pressed by a huge mountain. He lowered his head by another three points and said, "It's a matter of great importance. I hope that I will"

    "Shou Min, how dare you disobey me!" Tu Lun shouted from the side,

    Shou Min argued, "I dare not do this because of my humble position. Sir, why not report it to Aozhongtang first"

    Ye Chen said slowly, "What? I, the commander, can't be the master of this!"

    "Your Majesty, you are serious!" Shou Min gritted his teeth. Anyway, there was a tall person holding him up when the sky fell, so he said, "I am willing to take this humble position!"

    "This is the best!" Ye Chen continued, "Naqi, you are responsible for staying in the palace. If there is any emergency, just use the sounding arrow to send a message! Tu Lun Sheng, Shou Min, you two point three hundred guards, and follow  Let me go!"

    "Slaves (humble positions) obey your orders!" The three of them bowed and responded.

     ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    In a room in the palace, a cold man was leaning back on a mat. His face was gray, his eyes were distracted, and his body twitched from time to time.

    "Thinking about how many years of his dominance, whether in reality or in the nightmare space, how many people were frightened to death when they heard his nickname of a forager, but now they have their dragon roots chopped off with a knife, and they are still living.

    Ye Chen¡¯s knife cannot be compared with those of those craftsmen. Not to mention the pain, the probability of death afterward has undoubtedly increased a lot.

    If he doesn¡¯t repay this humiliation a thousand times, how can he still live?

    "I won't just let it go!" If it weren't for the body repair function in the nightmare space, his heart would definitely be in deathly silence at this moment.

    The cold man came back to his senses and took out two scroll-like objects from his arms. One was made of paper and was very ordinary, and the other was made of an unknown material that looked like silk but not silk. The entire scroll was covered with bloodshot threads, faintly outlined into a strange shape.  The fierce pattern exudes a faint light,

    "This secret guide is in line with my practice now, but if my limbs cannot be repaired after practice, or if I cannot continue to practice after repair, then what's the use!" The cold man thought for a while and put the paper scroll into the nightmare mark.

    "As for this" Looking at the other scroll in his hand, the man's brows furrowed deeper.

    At this moment, there were slight footsteps at the door, and the cold man put away the scroll.

    "Xiao Xuanzi, you are here!"

    When he saw the visitor, the man's face muscles moved, and he restrained the cold air between his brows.

    "Xiao Guizi, you take good care of yourself. When the time comes, I will cut that slave into pieces and execute him in Lingchi!" Kangxi stood beside the bed, a ferocious look flashed across his face, but when he mentioned the word "time", his eyes flashed.  A hint of strange color emerges,

    "Is it possible that Kangxi has some foreign aid?" A thought flashed through the cold man's mind and he asked, "Xiao Xuanzi, is there any movement outside?"

    "It's really your own fault!" Kangxi said with a chuckle, "King Keqin has been secretly lobbying Sarkozy, but Sarkozy was somewhat thinking about Obai's old relationship and was a little undecided, but he was ambushed late last night.  Let my people save you!"

    Hearing this, the expression on the cold man's face remained unchanged, but there was a slight fluctuation in his heart.

    Kangxi still had experts in his hands. There were 570 guards in the inner court, and at least more than 400 people were under the two yellow flags. Kangxi could shout about some trivial matters, but if he wanted them to risk their lives to save people, he didn't even think about it.

    What¡¯s more, even if you are willing to go, you may not be able to be saved.

    The two deputy guards, one Duolong and the other Ruidong, are barely masters, but it is impossible to rescue Sarkozy from the many dead soldiers in Obai.

    As for Xiaozhuang, the middle-aged man is dead. I'm afraid he is no one. Where did he come from?

    "etc!"

    The names of two people suddenly flashed through the cold man's mind. He remembered that in The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao was always followed by two guards.

    At first, he thought this was a loophole in the book. According to the rules of the Qing court at the time, the guards in the Suwei Palace were all elites selected from the Manchu Eight Banners and the Three Banners Camp.

    Therefore, not to mention the Han people, even the banner soldiers and princes' sons under the Five Banners cannot enter the inner court to serve as bodyguards.

    But there are always exceptions to everything.

    Fanwu Jinshi first name, can be awarded first -class guard, one and two or three are granted a second -class guard, and the second -class guard is awarded.

    And Zhang Kangnian seems to be the foreman of the bodyguards, which is between the deputy chief of the bodyguards and the first-class bodyguards. It is a third-grade military general's official position, but the power is much greater than that of the first-class bodyguards.

    That is to say, he was definitely selected as one of the inner court guards as a top martial scholar.

    That Zhang Kangnian, who only flatters and is timid, is a martial arts champion?

    At this moment, there was a trace of confusion in the cold man's eyes,

    "Xiao Guizi, don't worry, I won't let you be wronged in vain. I will definitely avenge you!" Kangxi said bitterly, "I swear that I will not be a human being until I cut Aobai and Eguza to pieces!"

    "Not bad!" The cold man nodded, with murderous intent rising in his heart.

    ¡­¡­

    As the most benign area in the capital, there are many weddings and weddings on weekdays, but there are also many deaths and funerals.

    Today is no exception. There are men in red clothes and red trousers, playing suonas, banging golden cymbals, and playing the song "Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix." In the middle of the team is a red sedan, and through the swaying curtains, a figure can be vaguely seen.  A beautiful woman wearing a phoenix crown and rosy clothes,

    Here, on another street, a man wears linen, mourning, and white clothes.Carrying a willow coffin, the man and woman at the head lowered their heads and sobbed softly. Along the way, white pieces of paper and money were floating in the sky.

    And between the two teams of happiness and mourning, there is a convoy

    (I went home on weekends. The long-distance bus ride made everyone go crazy. I have been motion sick since I was a child, but now that I¡¯m used to it, it¡¯s better. One hour is nothing, but if it exceeds two or three hours, my brain will become heavy.  I was so dizzy that I couldn't write at all. I would have to write this under great pressure. However, it was all Qing Yi's fault. Everyone felt unhappy, so they went to the book review section to curse a few words.  Bar!)
