Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 515: They are all the merits of the Tao
Chapter 515: All are merits of the Tao
"I don't mean anything. What you see is what I mean." Zhao Changhe was too lazy to talk nonsense, but suddenly the dragon bird was in his hand, and he slashed his head with a knife.
"Whoa!" Zhai Mu's sword was sharp and pierced the chest and ribs in the blink of an eye, completely breaking Zhao Changhe's tentative sword.
The guards were surrounding him, with several long swords pointed at Zhao Changhe.
Don’t look at Li Shentong who could knock back Zhai Muzhi and all his personal guards with just one punch. That was Li Shentong. When it was Zhao Changhe who came to fight, he knew that this was indeed a tough fight.
Zhai Muzhi said angrily: "You were still suppressing evil cults in the south of the Yangtze River a few days ago. Why are you joining the rebels now! The Chief of the Tang Dynasty treats you very well!"
Zhao Changhe was unable to complain about this sentence. He really felt like he was laughing or crying: "I'm very surprised. Doesn't Prefect Zhai have the concept of upright ministers and eradicating adultery in his heart?"
"What **** words!" Zhai Muzhi said angrily: "The imperial envoy is in front of you, what can't you tell directly?? Removal of the hat? Mr. Lu, you and I can also go to the court to speak, please make your decision!" There is no reason to join forces with rebels and turn swords against colleagues!”
Zhao Changhe was really too lazy to talk to him about such nonsense, and said lazily: "You don't know that I am a gangster? What kind of tacit understanding within your system, I don't understand, and I don't bother to understand. You are a thief who ruins the people. , chopped with a knife, the world is peaceful."
"You!"
Zhao Changhe raised a knife and was about to chop it down.
"Mr. Zhao..." Lu Shouyi suddenly spoke behind him: "As Mr. Zhao, if he really wants to kill someone, I'm afraid he can really justify it."
Zhai Muzhi was stunned: "Brother Lu..."
Lu Shouyi sighed: "Brother Zhai, have you really never heard of the rumors?"
Zhai Muzhi was startled, and suddenly remembered something, and his expression became extremely exciting.
Zhao Changhe is the prince... It is true that not everyone knows this. Originally, it was only known to a very small number of people. Later, due to the various scandals of the Cui family and the Tang family, more and more people knew about it. Zhai Muzhi Also one of them. But after all, it’s just a hint, so there’s no way to tell.
What's more, Xia Longyuan's fate was extremely tough. Everyone said that something happened to him, something happened to him, but nothing happened after hanging there for so many years. Naturally, the discussion about the prince died out for a long time, and most people took it less and less seriously. .
Zhai Muzhi remembered this rumor only after being reminded by Lu Shouyi this time. According to Lu Shouyi's tone, this matter is extremely reliable... Thinking about the attitude of the Cui family, Yang family and Tang family towards him... Zhao Changhe seems to really be the prince!
If he were the prince, killing himself would not be called rebellion. It would really be called patrolling incognito, killing traitors and eradicating evil.
But after thinking of this, Zhai Muzhi became more determined: "So, I am confessing to the prince...Should the prince put the overall situation first and put the punishment of rebellion first? There are many things wrong with me. But be loyal to Daxia.”
Zhao Changhe said: "Is loyalty enough?"
Before Zhai Muzhi could reply, Lu Shouyi said behind him: "Yes, in Daxia now, nothing can compare with loyalty."
Zhao Changhe said calmly: "Who do you mean by saying this?"
"Your Majesty." Lu Shouyi said very calmly: "Your Majesty is aware of all the issues in Shu County. Li Si'an's report made it very clear... But your Majesty asked your subordinates to come here this time. It's called an investigation, but it's actually a guarantee."
"Because compared to the dissent everywhere now, loyalty, or Daxia's recognition, is the most valuable quality?"
"Not bad."
Zhai Muzhi smiled and raised his hands to the sky: "Your Majesty, you are wise."
"There is also a practical problem." Lu Shouyi said: "The Miao territory is already in chaos. This is an established fact, and the court is unable to seek peace at this time. Compared with being disrupted by the Shenhuang Sect and other bandits, it is better to It would be better for Governor Zhai to serve his purpose and stay in the southwest. Otherwise, once the Miao people leave the border, the Shu area will be in chaos, and even the Shenhuang Sect and the Hei Miao team up, I am afraid that the Qianli Tianfu will no longer belong to Daxia..."
Zhao Changhe flicked his wrist and Longque chanted: "What do you tell me about taking care of the overall situation? The overall situation is made by oneself, not endured. Kill this bastard, and the Miao people will leave the border. I will never do it again." "Cut the Thunder and Zhentang!"
"Choke!" Zhai Mu raised his sword horizontally.
"This will eventually be your highness's kingdom. I hope your highness will think twice!" Lu Shouyi stamped his feet anxiously. Before he could be persuaded, golden light suddenly flashed in the sky.
…………
While Zhao Changhe was watching Zhai Mu's forward camp, the Second Miao Border Alliance was being organized on Cangshan Mountain in Dali.
Lei Zhentang is unlucky.
The first alliance was formed by taking advantage of the huge torrent of public indignation and using the excuse that his son died at the hands of the Xia people. Xiao Xiao gathered all ethnic groups to unite to fight against the Xia people. Even though the Bai and Yao people did not agree, they were coerced by the torrent. We can only do it together. And once they really kill the Xia people, there will be no turning back.
In the end, Si Laoye appeared out of nowhere and actually saw through the fact that Lei Ao faked his death. Being manipulated by his words, Dao Qingfeng, Pan Wan and others took advantage of the situation and cooperated, and created some kind of hammer alliance of the five races.
I originally thought that a joint alliance would be a joint one, and that I would be done with just three seats. However, Si Laoye forced me into a competition and forced a small clan of several hundred people into the five clan alliance.
Forget it, as long as the strength is strong enough, any alliance is just a joke. But just when the small meeting collapsed and Lei Zhentang was preparing to start a fight to cause trouble, Shi Wuding betrayed him and stabbed him in the king's way. Before Lei Zhentang's ambition could even begin, he was injured and lay on the bed dying. One month.
Hei Miao seemed to have stopped for an instant, watching helplessly as the Spirit Clan gathered the Xia people and gathered in Taoyuan, forming a huge force.
The good situation turned into chaos, and Lei Zhentang was almost unable to deduce what would happen next.
Damn it, the culprit is Wang Daozhong!
Fortunately, Xiang Simeng disappeared suddenly, and there were no more special actions in Taoyuan Town. They developed and adjusted step by step for a month, and everything was fine.
On this day, after receiving the news, Zhai Muzhi led his troops south.
Lei Zhentang's injury has not actually recovered yet, but he knows that this is the last chance to unify the Miao territory.
The command of the war must be unified by a leader. In this process, it is easiest to centralize power. There is no need to wait for the war. At the alliance meeting alone, the Spirit Tribe, now dominated by Xia people, can be suspected and excluded by all races. Then everything Xiang Simeng and Si Laoye have done before is in vain.
In the evening, leaders of various ethnic groups gathered in Cangshan Mountain.
"You Spirit Clan, please don't participate in this battle." Lei Zhentang proudly held the position of leader of the alliance and said to Sisi: "It's not that I, Hei Miao, can't trust you. Ask the other tribes who dare to ?"
Sisi looked around, and everyone including Pan Wan, Dao Qingfeng and others who had a good relationship before turned their heads away from looking at her.
Taking in the Xia people is a double-edged sword. Although it may make your power expand overnight, it will also lead to suspicion and ostracism among all races. He might not say anything at ordinary times, but when he was fighting against the Xia people, it became extremely prominent.
Sisi didn't seem to care, her beautiful eyes rolled around, and she said with a smile: "Then let's stay in Taoyuan."
Lei Zhentang sneered: "Stay in Taoyuan? This is our heartland. What if you betray the Tongxia people and stab us from behind?"
Sisi smiled and said: "So what does Chief Lei plan to do?"
Lei Ao stood behind Lei Zhentang and sneered: "Of course I invite the saint to stay in Cangshan as a guest."
Sisi glanced at him, with deep disdain flashing in her eyes. Suddenly he nodded and said with a smile: "There is a guest coming from the Xia Kingdom. Their family is also creating a rebellion in the Xia Kingdom. When they get here, they want to contact us to coordinate the incident. It happens that someone over there recognizes him and connects to Taoyuan. Since you can’t trust me, let me introduce this guest to come to the meeting and let’s talk together?”
Everyone thought she was trying to make a final push for her own presence and importance, so Pan Wan couldn't bear to be too exclusive and said, "Then let's invite the guests to talk first."
Sisi snapped her fingers, and not long after, several young men from the Spirit Race strode up the mountain with an elegant middle-aged man.
The person who came here actually looked quite embarrassed, as if he had been chased for a long time. But even though he was embarrassed, his demeanor was still there. Everyone could tell at a glance that this was indeed a top expert and he had been in a high position for a long time.
When the visitor arrived at the meeting place, he raised his hands and said loudly: "In the way of King Langya, I have seen many..."
Before he finished speaking, Lei Zhentang burst into action and said, "The king is right! Do you still dare to stand in front of me? Die!"
The desk was smashed to pieces with a palm, and Lei Zhentang spread his wings like an eagle and swooped straight towards him.
Wang Daozhong was stunned, as if Kunlun's nightmare was reappearing.
Why did I offend another Dibang inexplicably? Have I seen you?
"No! Wang has never been to Miao territory. If he has ever offended you, it must be Zhao Changhe!" Wang Daozhong now knows that he should just ask Zhao Changhe directly for such matters.
It's a pity that Lei Zhentang didn't believe such empty talk, and came with a violent palm strike.
Wang Daozhong had been hunted down for a long time and became a frightened bird. When he found that he couldn't understand, he immediately retreated, broke away from the black seedling encirclement, and ran down the mountain.
Lei Zhentang chased after him: "Don't leave, son of a bitch!"
Wang Daozhong turned around and slapped his hand with a bang, and couldn't help but feel angry in his voice: "Do you really think I'm afraid of you, a Miaoman?"
During these days of escaping from Wang Daozhong, the internal injuries he suffered inexplicably have healed almost completely. Xue Canghai clearly realized that something was wrong and did not dare to pursue him...
As long as we don’t fall into a tight siege, are the majestic kings really afraid of you, a Miao barbarian?
The two of them fought and walked all the way down the mountain. The violent energy rushed to the Cangshan Mountain and destroyed the vegetation everywhere. It was like a fight between dragons and tigers, and the avenue was wiped out...
After a while, we reached the foot of the mountain and could vaguely see the flat lake in the distance like a mirror.
We are no longer afraid when we reach the plains and the lakeside Wangdaozhong. After all, the mountains are still the home ground of the Miao people. They are accustomed to fighting in the mountains and forests. The plains and waterside are the homefields of the Wangdaozhong.
He suddenly turned around, stood still, and said with a ferocious smile: "Barbarians are afraid of power and have no morals. I have to hurt you so that I can speak freely!"
The Pai Tian Zhen Hai Palm surged out wildly, showing great power and domineering power.
Lei Zhentang also sneered: "People from China are self-righteous and don't know the magic!"
Wang Daozhong suddenly felt a buzzing sound in his mind. There was some kind of curse coming upon him, and the palm he struck was several times weaker.
Lei Zhentang’s palms faced each other at this moment.
Unexpectedly, this palm was still evenly matched, but both of them lost their own protection. They were both shocked to the core by the other. They spurted out a mouthful of blood and each fell backwards.
Because Lei Zhentang also suffered a curse at the same time.
As Lei Zhentang fell down, he was shocked and puzzled. As the most famous shaman in Miao territory, his practice crushed the entire territory. Whose curse could be effective on him?
Looking back, Sisi closed her eyes and formed a seal with her hands, applying an extremely ancient and special curse. She didn’t know where she learned it.
"Trap!" The thought flashed through Lei Zhentang's mind, and a sword light suddenly appeared behind the tree beside the road.
A sharp sword light that was very similar to Shi Wuding, with a chill that shattered the world, penetrated straight into the back of the heart.
Han Wubing!
It is indeed a trap, a trap planned by Sisi...
Wang Daozhong himself didn’t know, how could Sisi not know Lei Zhentang’s deep-seated hatred for Wang Daozhong? Only with the appearance of Wangdaozhong can Lei Zhentang be separated from the group and pursue alone. Only with the strength of Wangdaozhong can Lei Zhentang be faced head-on.
When the war was fierce, he used the witchcraft he had learned from his ancestral land and Han Wubing's sword to sneak attack at the same time. Regardless of whether he could successfully kill Dibang, it was not a big problem to let him lie down for at least another month.
Who will belong to the Miao territory at that time is yet to be determined!
Injured and cursed, thrown into the air, how could Lei Zhentang escape Han Wubing's soul-chasing sword?
"Roar!" Without any suspense, Lei Zhentang raised the sword in his heart and let out an angry roar. He didn't know what kind of Gu technique he used to overdraw his potential. He shook open the king's way with one palm and forced Han Wu back with one palm. Sick, staggering away towards the mountains.
The Black Miao people came in a rush to meet the clan leader.
Sisi passed through a chaotic formation of black seedlings like the wind, and her dagger was bright red when she left.
"Young Patriarch, Young Patriarch!" Hei Miao finally picked up the Patriarch, only to find that the Young Patriarch, Lei Ao, had clutched his throat and fell to the sky.
It’s a pity that I pretended to be dead for a month. I just stopped pretending and now I’m really dead.
Wang Daozhong looked at this mess as if he was lost in a dream. He wanted to ask Han Wubing a few words, but Han Wubing ignored him. After observing for a while, he was convinced that he could not break into the black seedling formation to kill people. He shook his head and left. go.
Wang Daozhong was stunned and ran away.
Golden light flashed in the sky.
"In June, Lei Zhentang gathered hundreds of ethnic groups on the top of Cangshan Mountain, hoping to unify the Miao territory and establish themselves. It happened that the king was fleeing here, and he went to the meeting after hearing about it, hoping to ally with the black Miao. Lei Zhentang was inexplicably angry and violently Attack it."
"Wang Daozhong fought and retreated, while Lei Zhentang pursued him down the mountain. The Ling clan secretly cast a strange spell on Simeng, Han Wubing took advantage of the chaos to sneak attack, and joined forces with Wang Daozhong to severely damage Lei Zhentang on the bank of Jinghu Lake."
"Hei Miao fought to the death to rescue Lei Zhentang, Xiang Simeng easily captured Lei Ao from the chaos, and Wang Daozhong took advantage of the chaos to escape."
"However, the black Miao unification plan failed for the second time, and the Miao territory fell into chaos again, all because of Taoism."
"Han Wubing teamed up to launch a sneak attack. Although his achievements are great, it is difficult to change his ranking."
"Xiang Simeng's first level of secret treasure has been promoted to the list. Those who were previously replaced due to the death of Ying Shuang have not broken the secret treasure and have been squeezed out of the list."
"Seventy-two people on the list, the ancient saint Xiang Simeng."
"The old travel curtain records Yangzhou...Those who are thin should be thin because of it, and shame is also the shame of a man."
