Chapter 1618 Ambush

In the Heavenly Dao Hall, Chi Lian telegraphed a shocking voice, and everyone looked at each other. Feng Yuanpo obviously did not expect Chi Lian Di to be so direct. He was stunned for a moment, but he soon smiled and said, "It turns out that it is the Ding Zheng's troops. At first I heard that Red Armor Chi Bei entered Fanmen City, and I was a little unbelievable. I wondered how could the Ding Zheng's Liaodong soldiers enter Hexi town without the order of the Ministry of War. It would be contrary to the national law..." Looking at Chi Li Di, his voice was also a little respectful: "Ding Zheng, is there any unscrupulous reason in the middle?"

"It's not a forced one." Chi Liandian stared at Feng Yuanpo, "The Liaodong army is now fighting with the Qingtian King. Many of the soldiers of the Qingtian King have scumbags gathered at him. These people's great abilities are nothing, but these methods of stealing and assassination are perfect. The so-called gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. This time he comes to Hexi to attend the birthday ceremony for heaven, so he naturally has to bring some guards around him."

"Oh?" Feng Yuan smiled and said, "It's nothing to bring some guards, it's just a handsome man. Why did he settle in Fanmen City without permission?"

Chi Liandian said calmly: "There are too many guards accompanying you. If you bring them to the Heavenly Palace, I think it is inappropriate, so Chi Bei stays at Fanmen to wait. Why did they settle in Fanmen now? I can't figure out why they entered Fanmen now. I believe there must be a reason." Turning to the emperor, he bowed and said: "Master, I was anxious on my way to come. At that time, Chi Bei stopped outside Fanmen and did not enter the city. Why did I enter the city now? I am also very confused. I beg the emperor to send someone to investigate. If Chi Bei really violates the national law, I am willing to be punished."

The emperor smiled and said, "The Liaodong soldiers entered the city of Hexi. I also want to know why. I will naturally send someone to investigate..." After pausing, he smiled and said, "Today is my birthday. If you don't talk about state affairs, you will discuss everything until tomorrow."

When the ministers heard this, they could only say that they were.

Then the emperor looked at Xue Huaian, the Minister of Rites, and asked, "Xue Aiqing, what are some programs today?"

Xue Huaian went out and bowed, "Your Majesty, this time, a total of 36 art troupes have been summoned, each with its own unique art... The emperor loves military music, Zhen Kou Feng has also been summoned from the capital, and Jinling Peacock Platform has also been summoned...!"

"Peacock Platform?" The emperor spread his eyebrows.

Xue Huaian immediately said: "That is, the Jinling Bird on Peacock Platform is the dancer who was named the national princess by the emperor. This time he also brought the group to perform his skills."

The queen smiled slightly at this moment and said, "Her dancing skills are really good. Yes, is it the peacock flowing clouds that she performed?"

"That's right." Xue Huaian smiled and said, "The Empress still remembers her? This was the one who was sent by Duke Zhong from Jinling."

Feng Yuanpo had already bowed and smiled, "I have heard of the name of the Peacock Platform in Jinling before, but I am not familiar with it. When I prepare for the birthday ceremony of heaven, I ask Xuebutang for advice in everything, especially this finale art troupe, so I can't be careless. The Peacock Platform was recommended by Xuebutang to me. I heard that the dancer was once named the national prince by the priest, and I think it was highly appreciated by the priest and the queen, so I sent someone to come over."

Xue Huaian frowned slightly, thinking that Feng Yuanpo was indeed a two-faced sword. Before, Xue Huaian was worried that the emperor would be dissatisfied with the arrival of Jinling Que. Feng Yuanpo slapped his chest and promised that he would take responsibility for everything, but at this moment he claimed in public that it was Xue Huaian's intention to summon Jinling Que. If the emperor was satisfied or not, it would not affect him Feng Yuanpo.

However, when Feng Yuanpo asked continuously, he mentioned Jinling Que. Although he only said the name, it had nothing to do with him.

The emperor nodded without commenting, but Feng Yuanpo turned around and said loudly: "Master Yang, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, what are the rules of associations next?"

This ceremony of worshiping heaven was specifically handled by Yang Zhen, the head of the Hexi Ministry of Rites. Therefore, although his status is not high, he also came to the palace to be responsible for the specific constitution.

"Your Majesty, according to the regulations, the next step is to show the art troupe, and then it will offer birthday noodles to the emperor, and a night banquet will be held at night." Yang Zhen knelt on the ground and said respectfully.

"Since that's the case, the list of the art troupe will be presented to the emperor quickly." Feng Yuanpo said in a deep voice.

Yang Zhen did not hesitate and said carefully: "I have made a list..." He took out a plate of documents from his arms, and there were seven or eight copies. Everyone was surprised to see this. Yang Zhen said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, the ministers are not completely familiar with the rules of the court, so when making the list, I made a few more copies, thinking that you all have to look at them too..."

Feng Yuanpo frowned and said, "I didn't tell you that if you don't understand the rules, you should ask Xue Butang for advice..."

"Damn it!" Yang Zhen was a little panicked, and even cold sweat had ejaculated on his forehead. "I ask the priest to sue him..."

But the emperor had already smiled and said, "Today is my birthday. You are fine. You are doing it carefully. I have said that today's birthday is not my birthday alone, but a celebration of the whole world... I will send the list to several governors who guard the place for me and have worked hard and made great contributions. Today I will share the joy with all my beloved friends!"

Feng Yuanbang bowed and said, "The Holy Spirit is the Lord." Then he said to Yang Zhen: "I won't submit the list yet."

Yang Zhen bent forward and first presented a gold-burned list to the eunuch in front of the palace. The eunuch then transferred the list to the emperor. Then Yang Zhen personally sent the list to the officials present. There were more than a dozen important officials in the palace, and there were only eight copies of the list, so they could only be distributed according to the station. Yang Zhen took the list to Chi Liandian. Chi Liandian shook his head. The emperor saw it and said, "Dianshen guards Liaodong, and he has worked hard and made great contributions. I know that you like the iron-blooded soldiers. Fortunately, the shaking wind has arrived, so you can naturally watch the soldiers." He pointed to Yang Zhen's list in his hand and said, "Duke Zhongguo took great pains to organize this birthday ceremony. Dianshen also pointed out his skills. Don't refute Duke Zhongguo's face."

The emperor said this, Chi Liandian could only take the list, hold it in his hand, scan it casually, and finally smiled and said, "Master, you know that I am a rough man who leads troops to fight. These art troupes are really unfamiliar, so the Master should choose it."

The emperor read it patiently, then he reached out to pass Zhu Ci, ordered several art troupes, and then the eunuch in front of the hall took the directory and handed it to Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen did not hesitate anymore, and immediately took the directory and arranged it.

The emperor said that today is birthday, and it is not convenient to mention more state affairs. Although the prince looked very calm, there was a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

The art troupe soon came to the Heavenly Dao Hall. Although everyone accompanied the emperor to watch the performance, they had their own thoughts.

...

...

On the official road in Hexi, Feng Tianxiao and his group were rushing to Wuping Mansion.

Feng Tianxiao led more than a dozen servants to the front, while Wu Xuan followed the 20 Red Bei selected by the leader, with red armor and iron faces, majestic.

As the sun sets, I suddenly heard a sound of horse hooves coming from the front. Wu Xuan looked up and saw a black line suddenly appearing in the wilderness ahead. The black line became tighter and tighter. Soon, a group of cavalry was coming towards him. There were at least hundreds of cavalrymen. Wu Xuan frowned and touched his waist with one hand.

Feng Tianxiao did not stop and turned around, and went straight to the group of cavalry. Wu Xuan's eyes became cold. He suddenly raised his hand. The cavalry behind him stopped for a moment, and his movements were unified. At almost the same time, he had already pulled out his sword from his waist. They had experienced a long battle formation and had a keen sense of smell. Even if Wu Xuan did not remind him at this time, everyone knew that the danger was approaching.

"Yi Barbarians..." Someone had already said in a deep voice in Chi Bei.

Although the oncoming cavalry rode tall horses, their outfits were not uniform, mainly black. Although these red-branded cavalry mainly dealt with the Goryeo people, they also had a lot of contact with the Yi barbarians. At a glance, they could see that the hundreds of cavalry coming towards them were the Yi barbarians in the north of the Mo.

"Sir Qianhu, there is an ambush over there..." A Chi Bei from beside him said sternly.

I heard a group of black people appeared from the left, and hundreds of cavalrymen were galloping towards this side. Almost at the same time, a team of black cavalry appeared from the right.

"Hexi people are cheating." A Chi Bei said sternly: "Master Qianhu, we are surrounded..."

Wu Xuan did not hesitate, staring at Feng Tianxiao's back, had already taken off the longbow on his back, bent his bow and arrow, and shot at Feng Tianxiao without hesitation.

Arrows are like meteors.

Feng Tianxiao had obviously noticed it, and his reaction was really slow. Seeing that the arrow had reached his back, he saw that he suddenly turned his body and fell down from the horse. He just wrapped his legs on the horse's back, but he hung his back upside down and avoided the arrow.

The horse's hooves rumbled, and Wu Xuan said in a deep voice: "Look back..."

"There are ambushes behind...!"

At this time, another sound of horse hooves came from behind. Twenty Chi Beis were surrounded by enemies on all sides and were completely surrounded in the wilderness. Chi Bei was indeed the strongest cavalry in the world. She fought alone and was invincible in the plains and wilderness. The most suitable war horse fighting was the most suitable for them. However, at this moment, the other side was all cavalry, and there were at least six or seven hundred people, and the number was dozens of times that of Chi Bei. Even if the gods descended to the earth, Chi Bei could not fly.

Feng Tianxiao passed by the group of oncoming Yi barbarian cavalry, then turned around and shouted loudly: "Kill all these Liaodong Chibei, take one head, and reward a thousand taels of silver!"

Among the Yiman cavalry, someone immediately shouted loudly with Yiman and shouted a few words. Most of these Yiman cavalry did not understand the words of Zhongyuan. When Feng Tian laughed and shouted, they did not understand what they were saying. When someone among his companions translated it in Yiman language, the morale of these Yiman cavalry was shocked and rewarded with a thousand taels of silver. For any Yiman cavalry, it was an astronomical figure. A hundred taels of silver could make them fearless. A thousand taels of silver was enough to completely put their lives behind their minds.
