(43) Completed

A person's appearance can never reflect a person's heart. No matter how beautiful, handsome, or elegant it is, it is always the appearance, and it has nothing to do with a person's inner self, thoughts and personality. Just looking at a woman's appearance, she can be a prostitute, a noble lady, or a pure and innocent jade girl.

No one knew that Jiang Wendi's beautiful appearance and quiet manner were so cruel when she touched hatred. Her bones suddenly exposed to the air and appeared in front of everyone. The guards suddenly trembled in their hearts. If this scene appeared on the battlefield, it would be nothing, but if it appeared in the palace, the one who caused this phenomenon was a beautiful woman, which made people feel a little heartbroken, and at the same time, it could also make people understand the resentment in this woman's heart.

Jiang Wendi also wanted to go on a sword and end Ouyang Lianlian directly, but before she started, she thought that this would make it cheaper for Ouyang Lianlian. Not only did she not have the full power of Bai Yunqi, but she also died happily. The resentment of losing maternal love for many years made Jiang Wendi feel torture.

Sweat as he rained, Ouyang Lianlian said nothing except for her shortness of breath. Wanyan Shou shouted at this time: "Serious seed, if you want to give us a happy life, want to torture us and ask us to beg for mercy? That is impossible!"

Since ancient times, none of the warriors of the Tatars and the Huns were afraid of death. There were almost no surrendered soldiers among the Huns and the Tatars. This has to be said to be a national blood. Even if they are despicable in the world, they are the same when facing this blood.

"Why? Say it! Why do you want to kill my mother?" Jiang Wendi was a little crazy. She turned around and waved her hand and cut one of Wanyan Shou's arms out of it.

At this time, Qingqing ran in from outside and asked as soon as she saw this: "What happened? Sister Jiang, what's wrong with this...?"

When the sword fell to the ground with a clang, Jiang Wendi rushed to Qingqing's shoulder and sobbed, "Woo... Qingqing, they, they are the ones who killed my mother."

It's such a coincidence that Jiang Wendi didn't know who her mother was. She only knew that she was only five years old when her mother died. After returning home from outside, she saw only a corpse, a cooled corpse.

"At that time, we were... the recipe of Yin Gong San. Who knew that Lian Nishang would not hand over it, and in order to avoid the spread of the recipe, she killed her. Now, what do you do to deal with us? Let's do it!" Ouyang Lianlian said. She could already feel that she was about to run out of oil and the lamp was dry. At this moment, Bai Yunqi exerted force in her palms, and the two of them were immediately shocked. Bai Yunqi finally opened her eyes at this moment, and the energy in her body bulged. Dozens of black needles behind her reflected out at this moment, and dozens of black light penetrated into the wall.

"Wen Di, if you don't think about unhappy things, don't think about them! If you do what you should do, you will leave it to you to decide. Two seniors, Bai is not a fool, so he will naturally be on guard against you. It's a pity that you still disappointed Bai. You must choose Tianlingzi between Bai and Tianlingzi. Bai's medicine is not heavy. If you don't attack Bai, the selves will naturally fade away after the time. It's a pity, it's a pity!"

After Bai Yunqi finished speaking, he meditated and sat down. Although Bai Yunqi might not have completely absorbed the skills of these two people, even if they had to compete with Izumiko and Bai Yunqi's Tai Chi skills, they would be able to ensure that they could not be lost.

Bai Yunqi had already said very clearly that revenge is a matter of course. If you take revenge, don’t think about it. No one dares to say a word at this time. Only Qingqing patted Jiang Wendi’s vest to comfort Jiang Wendi’s mood. After a while, everyone still had no movement, just left two corpses before the dining table.

Under the instructions of Qingqing and Huzi, the guards cleaned up the scene and left, leaving only Qingqing and Jiang Wendi, and Shui Ruoyun who came later, stood by Bai Yun who was silently exercising his skills.

In the early autumn season, the earth has begun to spread with golden years, marking that the child has matured and harvested in the year, and people have also matured. Hu Junbai is very calm. It has been more than half a month since he arrived in Duliang, but Bai Yunqi has just set off from Xijing and left 200,000 troops in Xijing and surrounding cities. Bai Yunqi and 400,000 troops are returning to Duliang.

Today, China has the territory of the former Great Qi and Zhang and Chu, and most of the land in the Central Plains is under jurisdiction. Before leaving, Bai Yunqi also met the two major princes of Zhang and Chu, and appointed them as vassal kings, allowing them to bring heavy troops and not be assigned to the court. This is also Bai Yunqi's strategy of using Shunzhi and will slowly smuggle afterwards. Of course, the best way is to disagree. The two vassal kings and within each other will never stop.

Looking at the drizzling rain curtain outside the window, Hu Junbai slowly picked up the wine glass and slowly drank the wine in the glass into his stomach bit by bit until there was no more wine in the glass, but Hu Junbai still dipped it lightly with his lips for a while, and never realized that there was no wine in the glass to sip into his mouth.

In Hu Junbai's heart, Li Yiyang's death was always strange. He fell ill day by day and his body collapsed day by day until one day, he suddenly became critically ill with blood, and all the imperial doctors could not find a solution.

Because Li Yiyang was still in good health and was not old, he was not in a hurry to become the crown prince. When Li Yiyang was seriously ill, his two sons began to compete for the position of crown prince, and Li Yiyang was in danger and could not stop him.

There were two factions in the court and the country. One was headed by the eldest son Li Chengxi. The basic argument was that the eldest son ascended the throne and continued to unite China to fight against Zhang Chu. Hu Junbai was one of them, and the other was headed by the second son Li Chengfeng, with the reason that the throne had not been established, and the capable were appointed.

In terms of martial arts, although Li Chengfeng is a half-tongued person, he is still slightly stronger than the martial arts ignorant Li Chengxi, but his paper talent and virtue are compared with Li Chengfeng. Such disputes continue and cause trouble for the entire Wei court.

That day, Hu Junbai visited Li Yiyang as usual. In fact, every morning, Li Chengxi would take care of Li Yiyang. Li Chengfeng had never seen his father again since Li Yiyang was seriously ill. For this alone, Hu Junbai should also support Li Chengxi. Although Hu Junbai never thought Li Yiyang was a good father, at least Li Yiyang managed the Later Wei well and was a good monarch. He also believed that Li Chengxi, who was more than Li Yiyang, would also be a good monarch.

Li Yiyang, who was lying on the dragon bed, was dying and could not even speak clearly, opened his empty eyes, waiting for the end of his life.

Hu Junbai, who had just walked to the door, saw all the eunuchs and palace maids running out of the room, and the door was also closed in an instant. Hu Junbai hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and asked, "What happened?"

"The king of the country is seriously ill, and the imperial physician is rescued." The eunuch's answer also blocked Hu Junbai outside the door. At this time, the second prince Li Chengfeng, who had never visited, rushed over. He was dressed in disheveled and still had a drunken aura on his face. Hu Junbai dared not speak out and saluted respectfully.

"Yeah, all... um, get up! Father, how is he doing? Notify me... have my elder brother?" Li Chengfeng looked drunk and speechless.

The eunuch hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, you have sent someone to inform me."

Everyone was blocked outside the door. Soon a eunuch rushed over from a distance. When he saw Hu Junbai and Li Chengfeng at the door, he shouted: "Not good, no good!"

Hu Junbai frowned and was about to scold the eunuch for panic, but was shocked by the eunuch's next words.

"The eldest prince was assassinated and died!"

Hu Junbai was shocked and was about to leave, but he glanced at Li Chengfeng who was secretly proud. He couldn't help but take a look. He thought of something in his heart, snorted coldly, and then rushed to the eldest prince's residence.

However, when he arrived at the residence of the eldest prince, news of Li Yiyang's death also came, and all the ministers rushed back to the palace again.

On this day, Hu Junbai's heart was full of doubts. When he arrived at the palace, under the instruction of Li Chengfeng, the guards had already begun to carry Li Yiyang's body away, covering his whole body with a piece of white cloth, from the inner palace to the outer hall, and there were ministers and soldiers kneeling on both sides of the road.

No one knows why Li Chengfeng is like this. According to etiquette, the death of the king should be caused by the funeral. Now Li Chengfeng quickly carried the king out of the palace, and everything was ready, and there were all coffins outside the palace gate and mourning teams.

It seemed as if everyone had already known about Li Yiyang's death in advance.

Hu Junbai looked at Li Yiyang's body being lifted up, and the white cloth slowly slid down, revealing the situation inside. It was indeed Li Yiyang's body. However, the body was a little black and had a blue-purple color on his lips. Just a quick glance, the person carrying the body covered the white cloth again and entered the coffin.

No one stood up to blame all this. The news of the eldest prince being assassinated and everyone was in danger. No matter what, the future king will be the second prince Li Chengfeng. If anyone jumped out and accused Li Chengfeng of not handling the body of the first lord according to the funeral of the country, which would insult the first lord's wisdom and even the national system, then this person obviously not only thought that he had a long life, but also thought that his family was tired of living. Li Chengfeng, a king, had the power to kill the nine clans, was there, and even Hu Junbai would not dare to fart or say no.

The body was buried and transported to the imperial tomb. All the ministers led by Li Chengfeng to the imperial tomb to make the final farewell for Li Yiyang until the coffin was sank into the loess.

"It's really troublesome, I have to send you away!" All the ministers dared not speak out.

Burying the loess, it can be said that the most hasty funeral of the king in the world is this. As soon as the burial was finished, Li Chengfeng turned around and said to Hu Junbai: "General Hu, can you carry the command of the 200,000 troops of our country with you?"

"I don't know what the prince's orders are there?" Hu Junbai actually knew that as one of the military generals Li Yiyang trusted most, he controlled almost all the military power of the Later Wei except the Imperial Guard of the Royal City. Now that the king of the country has changed, he is the first to start the operation, and he has always been able to relax in the future, and everything has exceeded his ability.

"You can't be bold, how can you call the prince the country again? General Hu, please respect the current king of the country." Before Li Chengfeng could speak, the flatterer behind him began to abide by his professional speech.

"It's okay, General Hu, please hand over the military talisman to me. I will re-allocate our army." Li Chengfeng took away the military talisman from Hu Junbai's hand in a simple sentence. Although military talisman is not everything, at least, Hu Junbai has lost half of the military command at this moment. After that, as long as Li Chengfeng promotes Hu Junbai's people in the army openly and secretly, the real power will completely change hands.

Hu Junbai didn't think too much about this. This is something that every dynasty and every generation must experience. There are still three fires for a new official to take office, let alone the new emperor.

Things really developed like this. The powerful people in the army were dispatched one by one. They were promoted and offered unemployed positions and did some auxiliary work. In the end, Hu Junbai had to wander around all day long. Fortunately, the people of the Later Wei Dynasty were rich and they were happy to play around. However, every time when they dreamed, Hu Junbai could always think of the green lips of Li Yiyang.

However, the changes in the world's general trend once again brought Hu Junbai into it.

"Dear friends, I wonder what solutions are there for this matter?" Li Chengfeng sat upright in the center of the hall and asked the civil and military officials below.

Hu Junbai was already at home at this time and didn't have to take care of the business or go to court. So he didn't know the process of all this, but just knew the result.

When China captured Qizhou, the city of the Later Wei Dynasty, Fei Changqing turned against each other. This was unexpected by everyone. Fei Changqing was a fish in the army who had always guarded the border and was forgotten by Li Chengfeng.

What is the current situation in China? Even Zhang Chu, who has always been the most powerful in the Central Plains, was trapped in China. The group of civil and military ministers below were panicked when they heard the news, and no one fell swooped.

A few brainless generals immediately said, "Hmph, China is too bullying. Lord, we might as well join forces with the Northern Qin Dynasty to enter China and take down the head of the white clouds."

"A reckless man, just by you, a finger on the other side of the white cloud can make your head fall to the ground. What, the king, I think China has no intention of attacking our Later Wei, and China has just subdued Zhang Chu's 300,000 surrendered troops, and it is still to be digested. We might as well make peace with China. Our country has always contributed a lot of gold, silver and wealth, cloth and food to all countries. Now that Zhang Chu has been destroyed, it is better to hand over the tribute silver that should have been given to Zhang Chu to China. I believe that China has gained the sweetness and will no longer covet the wealthy land of our Later Wei." The spokesperson was Qian Buming, the new prime minister, when Li Chengfeng took office, demoted the original prime minister to a free position, went to compile books, and taught poetry all day long. Anyway, those literati have always liked these things.
