Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 412

In a hidden courtyard somewhere in Qianyang Mansion, people from hundreds of families who participated in the assassination of Xiao Cheng rushed here.

Seeing that everyone has arrived, Feng Chu slightly raised his head, looked around at the people present, and said:

"I, the embroiderer, just received the news from Yingjia Bieyuan. After Emperor Yun settled in today, two sword masters fought in the Bieyuan. Their sword energy was so sharp that it shocked Yun Yun. The national imperial guards are panicking, searching everywhere for the person who did the trick!"

"Those two masters of swordsmanship are unrivaled in the world in terms of cultivation base and sword power and sword intent. Such a person should not be so unknown in the Jianghu. But for some reason, my embroidered clothes master There is no record of such a person in the intelligence file!"

Having said that, Feng Chu paused for a moment, then looked at Confucian teacher Ming Yi, and asked in a deep voice:

"Mr. Shi, among the two kendo masters who are going to attack today, is there the one arranged by Mr. Shi?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone present cast their gazes at Shi Mingyi one after another.

Shi Mingyi did not remain silent at all, and immediately said:

"Today's battle in the Bieyuan, the master with sharp sword intent and even more majestic sword power, was indeed arranged by me to enter the Bieyuan."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Shi Mingyi in surprise.

In today's battle in the other courtyard, although the two masters only exchanged a few moves hastily, under the sword intent, the sword energy spread for several miles, and the sword power covered half of the city, and the movement was huge.People from hundreds of families in the city naturally felt it.

The middle-aged man from the famous family raised his brows, clicked his tongue and said:
"Good guy, I, Cen Zhiyong, thought I couldn't handle the swords that those two masters fought against each other today... Shi Mingyi, your Confucianism is hidden deep enough! , unexpectedly cultivated such a master secretly."

Shi Mingyi's complexion sank slightly, and he said:
"Shouldn't you say that Emperor Yun is hiding deeper? On the surface, he has removed all the masters from the middle school, but in fact there is such a master of swords hiding beside him!"

Hearing this, Cen Zhiyong shook his head violently and said:
"No, no! Look at Yang Dayan, Nan Jiyun, Zhao Yun, and Yang Zaixing in Yunguo, these masters had no prestige in the Jianghu before, as if they jumped out of the cracks of the rocks and gave Yun Therefore, I am not too surprised that there are master guards hidden beside Emperor Yun."

Speaking of this, Cen Zhiyong couldn't help shaking his folding fan, and said with emotion:
"I don't know where the Emperor Yun was dug out from so many masters..."

Hearing this, Feng Chu suddenly said:

"Perhaps, that master of swordsmanship is not from Emperor Yun!"

After saying this, everyone was taken aback again.

"Not from Emperor Yun?"

Feng Chu nodded and said:

"That's right! The Imperial Army of the Yun Kingdom and the garrison and officers of the Qianyang Mansion mobilized and searched all over the city. They were looking for two people. That is to say, the two masters of swordsmanship left after fighting each other, which shows that they are not Yunhuang's people! "

Feng Chu looked at Shi Mingyi again, and said in a deep voice:
"At first, I thought that perhaps the expert wanted to serve the Emperor Yun when he saw the power of the Yun Kingdom. But then I thought about it again, he stopped the assassin this time and made a contribution to protect him. If he wanted to serve him, why bother to leave?" Where are you going?"

Cen Zhi clapped his hands with a folding fan and said:
"So, that master probably had an old grievance with the person whose teacher was righteous, so he acted and ruined our assassination event."

Feng Chu nodded, then said:

"Just looking at the situation of the sword qi confrontation today, you can see that the unknown master should not be underestimated! No matter what, he should not be allowed to stand on the side of Emperor Yun. So please tell me the details, Mr. Shi, have a look But is there any way to prevent that master from standing on the opposite side of us?"

Asked by Feng Chu, Shi Mingyi was also slightly taken aback, and after a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice:

"Actually, that master is not my Confucian disciple..."

Before the words fell, Cen Zhiyong on the side suddenly widened his eyes and said:

"The co-author is not one of yours! I just said that your Confucian disciple has become a master, and you still have the cheek to admit it?"

Shi Mingyi's face flushed, he couldn't help coughing lightly, and continued:
"This is a master that my Confucianism invited to assassinate Emperor Yun. We only know her swordsmanship is superb, but I don't know her origins, past grievances, and grievances, so it is really difficult to tell my lord at this time... "

Hearing this, Feng Chu nodded with a heavy heart.

Cen Zhi chuckled a few times, opened the folding fan with a bang, fanned it slightly, and said regretfully:

"A master who was hired by the Confucianism at a great price? It's a pity that the other court took action today and exposed its signs. It's a mess!"

The tone Cen Zhi used seemed to be very regretful.

But I don't know if it's because of the stereotype that someone from a famous family has always been mean-spirited. When everyone present listened to Cen Zhiyong's words, they always felt that there was a hint of ridicule in his words.

Shi Mingyi glanced at Cen Zhiyong, and asked back:

"Did it crash?"

"Damn it!" Cen Zhiyong stared wide-eyed, with a natural expression on his face.

Although the master arranged by Shi Mingyi was powerful, Emperor Yun didn't have many masters to accompany him.But those more than ten thousand Yunjun are not just for nothing!

Maybe Shi Mingyi was able to send people to join Emperor Yun's side when other courtyards were released before.But after today, the Imperial Guards of Yun Kingdom must be on alert. Not to mention that it is difficult for that master to escape, but at least he does not have to think about continuing to lurk and wait for an opportunity to assassinate him.

When Shi Mingyi heard the words, he snorted coldly, raised his head slightly, and hummed:

"Why do I feel like this is just the beginning?"

At this time, Shi Mingyi didn't have the look of failure and failure that the previous arrangements had exposed, but a confident appearance, as if the affairs of the other courtyard today could not affect the arrangement at all...
-
While welcoming the other courtyard, Feng Bao walked quickly to Xiao Cheng's side, and reported in a low voice:

"Your Majesty, Sergeant Yan knelt outside and begged, saying that there was an omission that caused the assassin to sneak in, and begged His Majesty to punish him."

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng laughed uncontrollably, shook his head and said:
"Yan Song is only in charge of supervising the dragon boat and welcoming the driver. What does today's assassination have to do with him? I'm afraid it's not a needle in the needle. I want to use this to see if I'm really tired of him... Hehe, let him kneel first Let him have a long memory!"

Hearing this, Feng Bao hurriedly bowed and said:
"Yes."

After Xiao Cheng finished speaking, he looked at the generals of the Forbidden Army who were kneeling in the hall, and asked:

"Didn't find any?"

"The ministers are incompetent, please be punished by Your Majesty!" All the generals of the forbidden army bent down and knelt down on the ground, all showing shame and embarrassment.

Two unidentified masters, after fighting against each other, managed to sneak away under the noses of more than ten thousand forbidden soldiers. How could the self-esteemed Yun Kingdom forbidden soldiers accept it?

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng looked at Yuhuatian who was also kneeling on the ground again, and said in a deep voice:

"You didn't catch it at the East Factory?"

The two people who fought today, although their swordsmanship is superb, can hurt the existence of the land gods and wonderlands.But in the end, when it comes to cultivation, he is only a ninth-level expert like Yu Huatian.

With the cooperation of Dongchang, the Forbidden Army, and Sticky Rod, no matter what, Yuhuatian shouldn't have chased him away so easily!

At this time, Yuhuatian buried his head on the ground and said:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. At that time, the maidservant had personally led people to hunt them down. Today, the two masters retreated separately, one ran to the outside of the other courtyard, and the other fled to the depths of the other courtyard. The slaveservant was weak and worried about His Majesty's safety, so he could only chase after that To meet those who fled in the depths of the other courtyard."

"But when the servants chased him to Weiruixuan, the back house of the other courtyard, that person could no longer be found... The servants also searched the surrounding area, and the servants of the palace also searched, but they didn't find anything!"

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said:
"That is to say, there are unidentified masters hiding in the other courtyard now?"

All the people present kowtowed and apologized, saying:
"Your Majesty please punish!"

When Xiao Cheng heard this, he didn't get angry immediately, he just tapped his knuckles on the desk in front of him, and after pondering for a moment, he said:
"Who is housed in the Weirui Pavilion in the back house?"

Feng Bao on the side thought for a while, then said quickly:

"Return to Your Majesty, the women who live in the Weirui Xuan, and are dedicated to the palace in Qilan Mansion. Your Majesty has told you that you want to be settled well, and the servants and servants will also be placed there together."

The women dedicated to Qilan Mansion all cost money.In order to send them into the palace, the family collected tens of thousands of taels for the least one.In addition, there was a famous concubine among them, who directly triggered the effect of [Yao Tao and Li], and made Xiao Cheng get nearly a million taels of silver.

This has collected other people's money, so naturally you can't wait too long.

"That is to say, the one most likely to hide an assassin by my side is this Wei Ruixuan?"

Feng Bao was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at Yuhuatian who was kneeling in the hall.

Yuhuatian was also taken aback, and then quickly said:
"Your Majesty, according to the old system in the palace, those who practice martial arts are not allowed to enter the palace to serve the emperor. The beautiful girls in Wei Ruixuan have been checked before, and none of them understand martial arts..."

When Xiao Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and said:
"Before you mention the old system in the palace, take a look at my current harem concubines!"

Hearing this, Yu Huatian immediately shut up.

Among the three ladies in the palace, except for Yang Zhaoyi, who is accompanying her now, the other two are masters with high-level martial arts, and they can be called masters in the Jianghu.

Their existence makes this so-called old system in the palace a bit ridiculous.

"Your servant finds out, let's investigate now!" Yu Huatian said hastily.

But at this moment, Xiao Cheng's thoughts suddenly moved, but he touched his chin and said:

"You don't need to check, just arrange for them to come see me!"

Speaking of which, I haven't seen the famous concubine this time...

Feng Bao, Yu Huatian, and the generals of the imperial army, when they heard Xiao Cheng's sudden whim at this time, they immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

There is a very high possibility that there is an assassin hidden in the Weirui Pavilion, how can he bring it to His Majesty?

But before they could utter their words of advice, they heard Xiao Cheng say in a deep voice:
"Unless I do it on purpose, that assassin can't even draw a sword in front of me!"

The tone was light, but with the majesty of an emperor, the hearts of everyone present trembled, and they no longer dared to speak out to persuade.

There is no way, a group of generals of the imperial army who can't beat their majesty really don't have the confidence to persuade too much at this time...

If you can't persuade your Majesty, everyone has to bow their heads and obey orders.

Feng Bao and Yu Huatian even went to Weiruixuan in person to summon Xiunu.

Not long after, the two brought six beautiful girls to Xiao Cheng.

Moreover, since the Lan family had the guts to send them to Xiao Cheng's side, these women were naturally selected, with outstanding appearance and figure.

But at this time, these beauties, under the background of the stunning woman in the vermilion palace robe, seemed to be overshadowed.

The red palace dress was as bright as fire, which made her skin look like fat.The small mouth of the cherry is red without spots, delicate and charming, and its appearance is already beautiful.The waist is covered with soft smoke, which outlines a waist that is not enough to grasp, and the soft figure is Xiao Cheng who has been tested for beauty, so he can't help but take a second look at this time.

Obviously, this is the famous concubine that was selected this time!
Xiao Cheng sized her up slightly, and couldn't help asking:

"what's your name?"

Although there were six beautiful girls present, everyone knew at this moment who Xiao Cheng was asking.

Seeing the stunningly beautiful woman in the red palace robe, she did not dodge her eyes, but looked directly at Xiao Cheng who was above her, and said openly:
"Gongsun Ying."

Xiao Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, and said:

"Gongsun Ying?"

It seems that she is a concubine who is not very famous...

Xiao Cheng couldn't help but look at Gongsunying again, and murmured in his heart.

With such a beautiful appearance, she is still among the famous concubines, I should not have heard of it before.

Xiao Cheng sized her up for a few times, then tilted his head slightly, his eyes suddenly fixed on her slender palm, and said:

"Why do you have calluses on your hands?"

Yu Huatian, who was guarding at the side, heard what Xiao Cheng said, his eyes sharpened immediately, and he looked at Gongsun Ying suddenly.

Gongsun Ying didn't panic at all, she stretched out her hands and said in a deep voice:

"Returning to Your Majesty, I have practiced sword dancing since I was a child. The hand holding the sword naturally has cocoons."

Xiao Cheng nodded, and said with a half-smile:
"Sword dance? No wonder when I saw you coming in, your footsteps were light and nimble, not like an ordinary girl. In the future, I will board a dragon boat and travel by water to Jiangzhou County. If you are good at sword dancing, you can explain it to me. The road is boring!"

While Xiao Cheng was talking, his eyes shifted to the simple and ordinary jade pendant on Gongsun Ying's waist.

In the line of sight that only Xiao Cheng could see, a line of small characters emerged on the jade pendant.

[Tibetan jade, four-star treasure

Introduction: Taken from "A gentleman hides utensils in his body and moves them when he waits", it is a Confucian treasure, rare in the world.

Wearing effect: the person who wears it can hide his martial arts aura. 】

As if sensing Xiao Cheng's gaze, Gongsun Ying subconsciously folded her hands on her waist, covering the hidden jade around her waist, and bowed to salute:
"Wish to dance swords for His Majesty!"

And at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Xiao Cheng's mind, and he said:
"Your surname is Gongsun? How much do you do at home?"

In the old days, there was a beautiful woman, Gongsun, who used a sword to move around.

With such a beautiful appearance, her surname is Gongsun, and she is good at dancing swords. She looks a lot like the famous lady Gongsun in the prosperous Tang Dynasty!
Of course, this "aunt" does not mean her age, but that she is the eldest daughter in the family, which means the same as "big man".After all, the beauty that Du Fu could never forget when he saw him when he was a child would not be an aunt.

But at this moment, upon hearing Xiao Cheng's inquiry and meeting Xiao Cheng's always generous Gongsun Ying, his expression was somewhat unnatural:
"I am the second daughter in my family!"

At this time, Xiao Cheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled with deep meaning in his eyes, and said casually:

"It doesn't matter..."

Although she is a famous concubine, she seems to have other ideas about herself!I just don't know if she is the one who wants to assassinate herself, or the master who prevents others from assassinating.

For a person who might want to assassinate him, Xiao Cheng obviously would not waste time trying to find out who she is...

　It was found that there was a little problem with the previous plot setting.But I wrote it all, it’s hard to change it, I can only temporarily borrow the setting of Jian Wang III, someone should have guessed it...

　　Also, today, because I forgot the previous setting, I flipped through the previous plot, and accidentally discovered that the annual tax amount of Yunguo was accidentally used in two versions.

　　At the beginning, the tax in Yun Kingdom was more than 800 million taels, and after the gold and silver enshrined in temples were removed, there would be tens of millions of taels in taxes.

　　But later, in order to reflect the national power gap between Yunxia and Xia, it was set that after Yunguo annexed Yongzhou, the tax would only be 700 million taels.

　　Then it’s not easy to change the previous one, and I forgot to inform everyone... But it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t affect the plot, everyone is based on the current version!
