Chapter 14 The Battle of Power and Power I
"What's that sentence?" Mei Shengxue asked.
"It's a secret for the time being!" Although Ouyang Zhan was talking, he kept walking, "You will know after we meet Nangong Cheng."
Mei Shengxue was curious. She grew up with Xiang Tianyu and knew Xiang Tianyu's character very well. As long as it was Xiang Tianyu's decision, even ten cows couldn't pull it back. How could Ouyang Zhan let Xiang Tianyu make it with just a few words?
Tianyu changed his mind? Will Xiang Tianyu really not leave with Nangong Cheng? Will things really develop as Ouyang Zhan expected? This is the answer Mei Shengxue wants to know.
To know the answers to these questions, they could only meet Nangong Cheng and Xiang Tianyu as soon as possible. So the three of them quickened their pace.
The three of them walked a few steps when Ouyang Zhan suddenly stopped.
Mei Shengxue said: "What's wrong with you?"
"This won't work, we have to do one more thing." Ouyang Zhan said to Hua Manchun: "If you can, please go to the Yang Mansion and explain the situation to Yang Shiqi, the chief minister of the cabinet. We must invite Yang Shiqi here.
on site."
Hua Manchun thought for a moment and understood why Ouyang Zhan arranged this. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely invite Yang Shiqi to the scene."
Ouyang Zhan nodded and said to Mei Shengxue: "Let's go! Try to delay as much time as possible when we get there. As long as we persist until Yang Shiqi arrives, things will turn around."
"Okay!" Mei Shengxue responded. Although she couldn't figure out why Ouyang Zhan made such an arrangement, she believed that Ouyang Zhan must have a deep meaning in making such an arrangement.
…
It's late at night, and the wind is blowing my clothes.
At this time, every house turned off the lights and closed the door. Only Xue Kaizhong and the others walked towards the palace with the sedan carrying Xiang Tianyu. They did not fight with Nangong. Xue Kaizhong felt a little lucky in his heart. They were getting closer and closer to the palace.
Soon, the mission assigned by the emperor will be completed.
At this time, a figure flashed over his head. Xue Kaizhong immediately became alert, and he found a figure standing fifty steps in front of him. The night was too dark to see clearly who the figure was. But Xue Kaizhong had already guessed who the person was, because that person was
The murderous aura emitted by a person is both powerful and familiar. Besides him, who else in the capital can emit such a powerful and familiar murderous aura?
Xue Kaizhong wanted to avoid that man, but he couldn't avoid it, because that man was standing on the road they had to pass back to the palace. Xue Kaizhong could only approach with his sedan chair, and he secretly prayed in his heart: "It's not him, it's not him, it must not be
Him." As the distance to the figure became closer and closer, the figure's appearance became clearer and clearer. What Xue Kaizhong least wanted to happen finally happened. It was the "him" in his heart - Nangong Cheng, who stopped him.
They found their way back to the palace.
When he was twenty steps away from Nangong Cheng, Xue Kaizhong stopped, raised his hand and shouted: "Stop the sedan!"
After the sedan was put down, all the Jin Yiwei pulled out their Xiuchun knives from their waists and gathered around the sedan to protect Xiang Tianyu.
Xue Kaizhong said: "Didn't you leave already? Why are you coming back?"
"If you don't ask clearly about some things, it will be a lifetime regret." Nangong Cheng said as he approached Xue Kaizhong and the others.
Xue Kaizhong said: "If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if the people are clear enough, there will be no disciples. Why do people need to live so clearly?"
"That's you, you can live confusedly, but I must live clearly." Nangong Cheng's steps did not stop at all. Gradually, Nangong Cheng and Xue Kaizhong
The distance between the others got closer and closer, and when they were still ten steps away, Nangong Cheng finally stopped. Nangong Cheng said to Xiang Tianyu in the sedan: "We have loved each other for a while, how could you even marry me?"
Don’t you want to see me anymore?”
"Everything is broken when it's broken. Since it's over, why bother seeing each other again? Go back! I hope you find someone better than me." Xiang Tianyu's voice came from the sedan, but the curtain was never opened.
Nangong Cheng smiled, took out the yellow cloth from his body, and said: "Just now, Sister Mei said something to me, and then handed me a piece of yellow cloth. After reading the content on the yellow cloth, I finally understood you.
Why leave."
Xiang Tianyu in the sedan was secretly surprised when she heard Nangong Cheng's words. She thought to herself: "Maybe he is cheating me, but I can't fall for it." So Xiang Tianyu said: "What yellow cloth? I really didn't know you were there.
say what."
"I don't know, right? Okay," Nangong Cheng nodded, and continued: "By God's will, the emperor issued an edict: pardon all previous sins of Nangong Cheng and Xiang Tianyu's family. Don't you know this too?"
Xiang Tianyu was shocked when she heard Nangong Cheng read out the contents of the yellow cloth. She couldn't believe that Nangong Cheng knew everything, but what should she do now? Should she go back with Nangong Cheng? If she goes back with Nangong Cheng, Zhang
What should the Queen Mother and the Emperor do if they send thousands of troops to deal with Nangong Cheng and his family? No, they cannot go back with Nangong Cheng. Xiang Tianyu opened the sedan curtain and said: "Don't get me wrong, I want this decree for my own benefit."
Family, including you by the way, that’s all.”
Nangong Cheng nodded and said, "Then I want to ask you, what crime did your family and I commit? Why do we need the emperor and the queen mother to pardon us?"
Xiang Tianyu was stunned. She really couldn't answer this question.
Nangong Chengzhi couldn't answer Xiang Tianyu, so he asked Xue Kaizhong: "Excuse me, the escort general, what crime did her family and I commit?"
"This..." Xue Kaizhong knew what crime Nangong Cheng and Xiang Tianyu's family had committed, but could he tell? What Nangong Cheng and Xiang Tianyu's family had committed was the crime of holding a bi, but could holding a bi be considered a crime?
If carrying a jade is considered a crime, then who else can the law protect?
"Since you all can't answer, that means we didn't commit a crime; since we didn't commit a crime, why do we want them to pardon us?" Nangong Cheng became more and more excited as he spoke, and finally threw the pardon letter into the air, then put his fingers together and pointed at the pardon letter.
Refers to the pardon letter being attacked by several sword energies, and in an instant it turned into rags and fell down.
"Are you crazy?" Xiang Tianyu was shocked when he saw Nangong Cheng destroying the pardon she had worked so hard to get. He was about to accuse Nangong Cheng. Before he could speak, he heard Xue Kaizhong's roar, "
You are brave! You dare to destroy the emperor's imperial edict. Do you know that this is a capital crime of beheading?"
"Behead?" Nangong Cheng snorted, pulled out the black iron sword from his waist, and pointed at Xue Kaizhong and Jin Yiwei, "The emperor abused his power and took away my beloved wife. It is not me who should be beheaded, but him! Okay
, since the matter has reached such a point, I will simply kill you, and then go into the palace to kill the emperor and the queen mother!" After saying this, Nangong Cheng walked towards Xue Kaizhong and the others.
The sword energy gathered on the sword, and the murderous aura that erupted from Nangong Cheng's body was as overwhelming as a mountain. They all took half a step back. Nangong Cheng's sword skills were very strong, and none of them wanted to fight with Nangong Cheng. But things happened.
Up to now, they have no retreat and want to complete the mission of the emperor and the emperor.
In order to complete the task assigned later, he must confront Nangong Cheng.
"Brothers, don't be afraid! Even if we die here today, we will die for the emperor. We will be loyal to the country. Even if we die, it will be an honor!" Xue Kaizhong comforted the Jin Yiwei behind him.
"We can't let Nangong Cheng fight with Xue Kaizhong and Jin Yiwei, otherwise Nangong Cheng will fall into a situation of eternal disaster." This was Xiang Tianyu's idea. With this idea, Xiang Tianyu walked out of the sedan and walked towards Nangong Cheng step by step.
, and let the tip of the sword in Nangong Cheng's hand point directly at his heart, "Aren't you going to kill someone? Then kill me now!"
Of course Nangong Cheng didn't want to hurt Xiang Tianyu, so Xiang Tianyu took a step forward and Nangong Cheng took a step back.
Xiang Tianyu said: "Don't hold back! Kill me now!"
Nangong Cheng put down the black iron sword and said: "I will not kill the emperor, nor will I kill the queen mother, but the condition is that you come with me now!"
Xiang Tianyu shook her head. She wanted to leave with Nangong Cheng, but she couldn't. She said: "It's impossible for us anymore. Since it's impossible, why bother struggling with it? Nangong Cheng, please let me go! Just let me go."
Live your life."
Nangong Cheng closed his eyes helplessly, and two lines of tears flowed from his eyes. Nangong Cheng thought that if he destroyed the pardon letter, Xiang Tianyu would leave with him, but everything happened just as Ouyang Zhan expected.
Seeing Nangong Cheng crying, Xiang Tianyu also cried. She didn't want to hurt Nangong Cheng, but now she hurt Nangong Cheng deeply. She couldn't let Nangong Cheng see her crying, so she turned around immediately before the tears fell.
Xiang Tianyu walked towards the sedan again. As she walked, she said to Xue Kaizhong and others: "Let's go. I hope you don't tell the emperor what he just said!"
Xue Kaizhong nodded and said: "Don't worry, no one here will take a person's crazy words seriously, and no one will tell a person's crazy words to the emperor and the queen mother." After saying that, Xue Kaizhong stood beside him,
Jin Yiwei, who had previously offended Nangong Cheng in Gujiazhuang, said, "Am I right? Han Qianshou has a hundred households?"
"Yes, yes!" Han Qianshou quickly agreed. As long as he could bring Xiang Tianyu into the palace, Han Qianshou would not tell the emperor about this matter. They all knew that Xiang Tianyu entered the palace to help the emperor deal with national affairs.
That is to say, Xiang Tianyu will take power in the court in the future, and no one is willing to offend a person who is about to take power.
Xiang Tianyu smiled and nodded, opened the sedan curtain, and prepared to re-enter the sedan.
At this time, a loud voice came over, "Nangong Cheng, I support you in taking Xiang Tianyu back!" As soon as he finished speaking, Ouyang Zhan and Mei Shengxue appeared in front of everyone.
Xiang Tianyu turned his head and looked at Ouyang Zhan and Mei Shengxue, and continued walking towards the sedan. Although he got the support of Ouyang Zhan, Nangong Cheng did not take action.
Mei Shengxue came to Nangong Cheng's side and said, "Uncle, what are you waiting for? Why don't you go and get the young lady back?"
"I can't get it back." Nangong Cheng said and closed his eyes.
Why can't you snatch it back? Ouyang Zhan thought about it briefly and understood the reason. At this time, Xiang Tianyu had already stepped into the sedan with one foot. Ouyang Zhan said to Xiang Tianyu: "Xiang Tianyu, please listen.
I say one thing, if you still don’t change your mind after hearing this, then it’s up to you!”
