All Heavens Start with Lu Xiaofeng

Chapter 509
Winter to spring.

Glaciers thaw.

After the Chinese New Year, several not-so-small events happened in succession in this world.

First of all, the Hulukou military parade at the border gate, and the new Beiliang King took office.

What made everyone's jaws drop was that the new King of Beiliang was not the eldest son Xu Fengnian, but the Second Princess Xu Weixiong.

——Beiliang King Xu Weixiong.

When the news came out, the world shook.

This was the first time that a woman was crowned king, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.

In fact, many people saw the clues in Xu Weixiong's act of going to Beijing a few years ago, but almost no one thought about it, which is too absurd.

However, it was rare for the Liyang court to maintain a tacit understanding with Beiliang this time. They issued an imperial decree, rewarded them with python clothes, and recognized Xu Weixiong's status as the vassal king of Beiliang.

This is not difficult to understand.

For the imperial court.

Beiliang must have cavalry.

Beiliang must have a king of Beiliang.

But Beiliang must not be strong.

In the general trend of the world where men are respected, when a female king of Beiliang takes office, it is impossible for the interior of Beiliang to be an iron bucket.For the imperial court, it is naturally happy to see its success.

Unfortunately, this wish came to nothing.

At least it seems so.

That female Northern Liang King is very popular.

The reason is not complicated either. Before Xu Weixiong became the king of Beiliang, he announced to the four prefectures of Beiliang that they would hold civil and military competitions on the school martial arts stage that had been built.

Wenbi, there are wind poems and songs, as well as national economy and people's livelihood, and various policy questions.

Martial arts competitions include simple catching and fighting, and also include leading the confrontation.

Whoever can beat the incoming female vassal queen in one aspect will be rewarded with money and silver, and will be promoted to rank.

Many people are going to see the jokes of the Second Princess Xu Weixiong, and there is an endless stream of challengers. Could it be that you Xu Weixiong, a mere woman, can beat all the heroes in the four states of Beiliang?
Coincidentally, she can really win.

At least not defeated.

There is no need to say more about Wenbi.

Xu Weixiong entered Shangyin School to study at the age of 16. He became a teacher of Wang Jijiu and Han Guzi. The song "Green Ant New Fermented Wine, Red Clay Small Stove" made Beiliang Green Ant Wine sell out of stock and became popular. All over the world.And the art of latitude and longitude learned by Han Guzi is even more extraordinary.

Among the scholars and counselors who challenged on stage, Xu Weixiong would often speak in just a few words, let alone convincingly, speechless.

Everyone has heard about the talent of the Second Princess, although it is surprising, it is not too surprising.

But the real surprise was Wu Bi.

Everyone thought that the second princess was young, that is, a second-rank junior master, who was at the top of the first-rank Vajra Realm.

But who knows, Xu Weixiong is actually a master of the first-rank big finger mystery.Especially that exquisite swordsmanship, without the gentleness and delicacy of a woman, but with a murderous intent, opening and closing vertically and horizontally.

One of the moves, "Sword Pours the World", was even more domineering, defeating many masters in a row.

Afterwards, there were rumors that this princess had studied with Emperor Murong Tong, who was number one in the world, for a period of time, and had won the true instruction of his swordsmanship.

In any case, this Second Princess convinced most of the men in Beiliang, and when they mentioned her, they all gave a thumbs up in praise.

"Women don't allow men."

It was also because of this that the Second Princess became the King of Beiliang, so it would not appear so abrupt.

Many people even set off firecrackers to congratulate. It is always better to hand over 30 cavalry from the four states of Beiliang to the second princess than to that dude Xu Fengnian.Even though Xu Fengnian's reputation has recovered, in the eyes of most Beiliang people, he is still an ignorant dude, which has long been deeply rooted in his impression.

At the first military parade after the Chinese New Year, Chu Lushan, Yuan Zuozong, Han Laoshan... and a dozen or so generals who held great power in the army lined up holding knives.

The fourth son of the general, Xu Longxiang, who seemed simple and honest, but was actually born with a diamond body, walked step by step towards the battle drum that was one and a half tall.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Once resounded throughout the six kingdoms of the world, the Beiliang War Drum, which was the loudest in the Spring and Autumn Period and Xileibi, was sounded like thunder.

But at this moment, a galloping horse came, and the woman on the horse was heroic, with fluttering clothes.Although she is just a middle-aged figure, she already possesses a magical power to attract people, but at this moment, no one dares to look directly at her.

There was a slightly lame old man looking at the back of that rider, with his hands in his sleeves, and he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

There is a handsome young man behind the old man, and his smile is heartless.

The slightly lame old man restrained his smile slightly, glanced at the second son who was regarded as a dude by the outside world since he was a child, but never let him down, and said: "Feng Nian, do you regret it? All this should belong to you."

The handsome young man stretched his waist and said with a smile: "I regret it, I have to laugh when I am happy to dream. It is very majestic to sit in your seat, but it is very tiring and very irritating. This is a heavy burden. It fell on the second sister, but who made her so smart since she was a child, she deserves to bear this burden."

"It's fine if you don't regret it, it's fine if you don't regret it." The lame old man chuckled. If the siblings in the family can unite and have no quarrels, then he will feel less guilty and uneasy when he sees her.

The beautiful young man suddenly changed the subject, but his words were not surprising: "Old man, are you going to die?!"

"Yeah, I'm going to die." The lame old man nodded, and he didn't have much trouble with his "death".

"Hey, I haven't cried for a long time. You are also my father. If you die, I won't shed a tear. It's a bit unreasonable." The handsome young man said with a bitter face.

"Haha, Feng Nian, in my funeral, you still have to be more serious. There is nothing to do without tears. The man has tears and does not bounce lightly. But if it is too much to see the clue, Mr. Murong will be beaten. "The lame old man laughed.

"I know, I know." The handsome young man said helplessly.

On the other side, a python-robed woman with a Beiliang sword had come to the school martial arts platform, stood in the center, then suddenly shook hands and shouted: "Beiliang, draw the sword."

Swish! !

A dozen generals drew their swords.

The 30 Beiliang soldiers who were still motionless under the snow and armor drew their knives.

Beiliang Iron Cavalry is the best in the world.

The sound of drums in Beiliang is heard all over the world.

Beiliang has a new king, Xu Weixiong.

With firm eyes, Xu Weixiong pointed the Beiliang knife at Beimang.

The 30 Beiliang knives pointed at Beimang in unison.

There is still a knife in Xu Weixiong's heart, pointing at the Central Plains, pointing at Tai'an City.

……

As for the second matter, it is also related to Beiliang.

Not long after Xu Weixiong succeeded, Xu Xiao died.

The man who ruled the four states in the Northwest, joined the army and killed people at the age of ten, from Jinzhou in the northeast to the Huns, to the south to destroy six countries, more than [-] cities, and then to the southwest to suppress the sixteen tribes of barbarians, Tu Xuxiao died. The first year died.

This incident was first spread in Liangzhou City, one spread to ten, ten to hundreds, many old people had the courage to go outside the palace at the foot of the mountain, and saw with their own eyes the bleak Spring Festival couplets on a white background.

An hour later, white lanterns were hung all over the city, and all the couplets with white backgrounds were replaced.

Hu Kui, the governor of Liangzhou, was wearing mourning clothes, rushed to the door of Yimen, turned his head to look at the tens of thousands of Liangzhou people in the city, and shouted hoarsely: "Bow."

The wind and rain were like darkness, and a large area of ​​the street was kneeling in a vast expanse of whiteness.

"Goodbye!"

"Three salutes."

After a few days, the news gradually spread, and Liyang Emperor naturally got the news, but Tai'an City fell into a carnival. Even the court meeting fell into a cloudy and treacherous festive atmosphere.

Xu Xiao, one of the Spring and Autumn Three Great Devils, finally died.

However, someone sighed inappropriately, regardless of Xu Xiao's merits and demerits in his lifetime, Ren Tu, who even broke the Six Kingdoms, is indeed a magic treasure.

Without this Dinghai Shenzhen, how could he be able to stay with the barbarians in Beimang.In addition to the Western Chu that is about to restore the country, the Central Plains is in chaos.

In the court hall, there was a lot of quarreling over the posthumous title of the former King of Beiliang, but none of the posthumous titles proposed by the officials were good ones.

In particular, Jin Sanlang, who came from Beiliang and was taught by Xu Weixiong, proposed the posthumous title of "Li" together with Lu Shengxiang, the minister of the Ministry of War, and wanted Xu Xiao to define him as a rebellious official and traitor of the Liyang Dynasty.

In the end, the emperor of the Zhao family, who raised his mouth slightly and then quickly suppressed it, made a final conclusion, waved his sleeves, and proposed "the merits and demerits are equal, and the posthumous title is Wuli".

Soon, an imperial decree with the posthumous title "Wu Li" was placed in a gold lacquer box and sent to Beiliang.

The big eunuch of Yinshoujian held the golden lacquer box and dared not let go of it while sleeping.

And the closer it was to Beiliang, the stronger the eunuch's heartbeat. Although there was an elite team of hundreds of people accompanying him, it was nothing compared to Beiliang with 30 cavalry.

He tossed and turned these days, just couldn't sleep, and he always thought about which female feudal king would never dare to send someone to assassinate or refuse to accept the imperial decree.

The carriage stopped suddenly.

The old eunuch in the carriage also felt the unusual aura, lifted the curtain and looked, and his heart sank.

Near the Youzhou boundary marker, there are countless cavalry, spreading all the way to the end of the field of vision.

The iron cavalry slowly moved out of the way, and a woman in a boa robe rode out, with a heroic appearance, who is not the only female vassal king in the world?
The corner of the old eunuch's mouth twitched, and he puffed out his chest. In the dark, the eunuch in the palace was very arrogant, and shouted: "Our family..."

Before the words were finished, the woman in the boa robe said coldly: "Hold up the box."

"This..." The eunuch's chest suddenly fell down.

"Pick up the box!"

The voice of the python-robed woman was cold and indifferent, as if she had no emotion at all.

But when it fell into the ears of the boa-robed eunuch, it was heart-stirring, like hearing thunder, and a chill rushed to his heart.

"Pick up the box."

The woman in the boa robe yelled out for the third time.

The old eunuch has no more than three minds, and with their pair of people, no matter what the other party wants to do to them, it is easy for them. People still need to be more sensible, so they tremblingly held the box high.

The woman in the boa robe brought a big bow, stretched the bow and strung the strings, like a full moon.

The old eunuch knew something was wrong, but the feathered arrow shot out.

The arrow pierced the sky, Yipin refers to Xuan Gao's full strength to shoot the arrow, it is naturally extraordinary.

With a "click", the golden lacquer box shattered instantly, and the arrow hit the imperial decree in the box, and then nailed it into the soil.

The old eunuch and one hundred elite guards were stunned.

But the female vassal queen had already turned around and left.

In the first year of Xiangfu, Beiliang not only refused to accept the imperial decree, the female king of Beiliang even shot the imperial decree into the soil.The capital was shaken, and many people scolded that female Beiliang king for not knowing what to do.Even today's emperor was furious, and it was said that his favorite porcelain cup was broken.

As for the third not-so-big thing that happened in the Central Plains, it was a "heavy snow order" from Daxueping in Huishan, which is not listed.

After Ren Tu Xu Xiao died, a small incident also happened in Beimang.

Empress Beimang received an old Confucian scholar who was also not young.

The Empress's face is old, and her eyebrows and eyes can vaguely show that she was indeed a stunning woman when she was young. She coldly left the old Confucian scholar in anger.After being silent for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said: "Taiping Order, according to your request, everything has been done in the palace, can we start?"

The old Confucian scholar in front of him turned out to be the Taiping Order of Qijian Yuefu.

Chess and Sword Yuefu accepts disciples according to the name of the Ci Pai, and among the three-character Ci Pai, Ether Command and Jian Qi are the most famous.

Taiping Ling has always been the head of the Chess Sword Yuefu, has a close relationship with the imperial court, and is often the emperor's teacher.

And this female emperor once reprimanded the Taiping Order face to face after she ascended the throne. Since ancient times, the priests have been ranked by the heaven and earth, relatives and teachers, and the widows have no parents to worship.

So this Taiping Ling failed to become the master of the gods, and left in anger, and kept his name incognito for 20 years. Now after Xu Xiao's death, he finally entered the palace to meet the empress again.

Taiping Ling was also polite, walked up the first step, took off the bookcase, and waved his hand.

Nearly [-] court ladies and eunuchs holding satin scrolls filed in one by one, and placed satin paintings on the left and right sides of the square, bowing their heads and walking backwards, each pulling up a long scroll.

In a short time, a hundred silks became a giant painting.

It is the territory of the two dynasties of Beimang and Liyang, including every military town, every big river, and every heroic vein in detail.

The empress narrowed her eyes, and couldn't help but feel infinite pride.

The rivers and mountains of the two dynasties are beautiful and picturesque, with magnificent waves, all under your feet.

The old Confucian scholar and other female officials and eunuchs all retreated before sitting down.

"Today, let me first talk about the right time, place and people. Tomorrow, I will talk about the customs and customs I have seen in the Central Plains over the years. On the third day, I will talk about the border between the two countries, but I can only talk about it. On the fourth day, I will talk about specific issues and how to win the hearts of the people. On the fifth day, we will talk about how to destroy Beiliang, occupy Western Shu and swallow Nanzhao. On the sixth day, we will talk about how to direct the spearhead at Tai’an City, annex the world, and unify the Central Plains of Beimang. On the seventh day, we will talk about how to govern the country.”

Even though this empress had gone through vicissitudes and ups and downs, she was stunned when she heard such heroic words that could swallow the world like a tiger. After a while, she smiled and bowed: "Sir, please speak."

Therefore, the Taiping Order continued for seven days.

In the past 20 years, most of him have been in the Central Plains, changing identities more than a dozen times, traveling north and south, seeing all kinds of things in the world, and enjoying the spring and autumn mountains and rivers.

A sage said: read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles.

Perhaps even Huang Sanjia, the only remaining three major demons in the Spring and Autumn Period, may not have traveled farther or seen farther than him.

But now, the Taiping Order told the empress all the knowledge and knowledge of the past 20 years.

He spoke during the day and at night, and indeed he spoke for seven days.

Seven days later, the empress held Taiping Ling's hand and said calmly, "Mr. Yuan is the emperor's teacher."

Tai Ping Ling, who was promoted to the emperor's teacher, just smiled slightly, and looked at the empress.

After a while, both of them looked towards the Central Plains at the same time.

Xu Xiao is dead, the northern coolness can be broken, why can't they sit still in the magnificent scenery and beautiful mountains and rivers of the Central Plains?

The war is near.

……

Xu Xiao died.

Tu Xu Xiao, who fought against the Six Kingdoms, died.

Regardless of what the outside world thinks of the former King of Beiliang, the four prefectures of Beiliang are full of innocence and no one laughs.

Especially in Liangzhou City, if you walk around a city, you may not be able to see a smiling face.

In the Northern Liang Palace, the sad atmosphere was even heavier, almost suffocating.

But in a side courtyard of the palace where the servants lived, there was an old man lying on a rocking chair, patted his thighs, and hummed a little tune, which was a lot of fun.

The old man's name is Wu Jiang, he has worked in Beiliang Palace for [-] or [-] years, he is a third-class servant, because he usually likes to eat a piece of ginger regardless of whether he eats or drinks, so he is nicknamed "Old Ginger".

Today, the roommates all went to work, but he took a two-day rest in the name of occasionally catching a cold.

"Xu Xiao, the barbarian from Jinzhou, is finally gone. Su'er won't be alone down here. Hey, Xu Xiaozi is nothing. In his life, only his son will be in the eyes of the old man. If he dies, he will be less troubled."

The vicissitudes of the old man's face gradually turned into sadness: "It's just that these few children have to suffer to support the huge Beiliang. Huh, what the hell is that cripple doing to prevent Xiaonian from being the king of Beiliang? Let his second sister go, have you forgotten that Xu Weixiong is actually..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed again: "That's not a good burden, there's no need to fight. No matter who sits on it, it will be troubled. What's more, Xiaonizi and Fengnian are close, even though they are not family members. , but they are also family members.”

Suddenly, the old man sat up, with his eyes half-opened and half-closed, with a fierce aura, but he was very handsome, as if he was proud of himself, and said leisurely: "Since my friend is here, why don't you show up?"

A long laugh sounded from outside the courtyard, and with a "bang", a slender palm passed through the wall, and with a random push, the stone wall collapsed like tofu.

But I saw a person wearing green clothes, a bamboo hat made of wicker on his head, and a long knife at his waist, slowly entering.

The bamboo hat on the man's head was pressed very low, the old man couldn't see the face of the man, but he felt a murderous aura coming, and he couldn't help but feel a chill all over his body.

"Sword Armor Qi Lianhua?"

The man said in a low voice, his voice hoarse, as if asking.

"What kind of sword and armor Qi Lianhua? What nonsense are you talking about?" The old man's frown deepened, like two big bumps.

Swish! !

The man in the hat took off his cloak, revealing a rather handsome face.

Throwing it casually, the bamboo hat woven with wicker flew out, as if thrown by an ordinary person, without any power at all.

But the old man felt unavoidable, and his whole body was locked.So he took a deep breath and punched out.As this punch advanced, the air made a loud "crash" sound, like a turbulent wave hitting the shore, and the sky and the earth were submerged by endless tsunamis.

boom! !

The fist and the bamboo hat are handed over to each other.

The old man staggered back two steps, with horror in his eyes.

Although what he is best at is not boxing, but at his level of cultivation, every punch and kick has its own true meaning, and everything belongs to the vision of the sect.But this simple bamboo hat caused the blood in his body to surge, and the air mechanism exploded, creating an irresistible feeling.

And the bamboo hat turned around and flew back to the man's hand.

The man in Tsing Yi slowly stretched his hand towards the handle of the knife. When he pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, it immediately gave people a feeling that the mountain and rain were about to come and the wind filled the building, and the old man was a little out of breath.

"Take out your knife, or you will die."

The man in the blue hat had a flat tone.

But that murderous aura filled the entire small courtyard, and it became more and more intense. The old man could even smell blood through the tip of his nose.

When did such a master of swords come out in the world?

Knowing the most dangerous moment, the old man didn't care too much, and stomped on the ground.

boom!The soil exploded, and a strange snow-white long knife jumped out and fell into the old man's hand.

"Look at the knife."

There was a clanking sound, and the man in Tsing Yi pulled out his saber from its sheath at his waist. The saber was as bright as a dragon roaming in the nine heavens.

The old man's eyes were fixed, and the snow-white long knife was unsheathed in his hand.The moment the long knife was unsheathed, the air flow in the entire courtyard was swept away, and a chill emanated from the light of the knife.It was originally spring returning to the earth, but suddenly it returned to the deep winter, and it was freezing cold.

when!
When the two knives clashed, the strength exploded, and the icy air channel turned into a hurricane, surging around the courtyard, and the entire courtyard seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.

War broke out.

Both of their saber techniques were domineering and fierce. In the third round, the entire small courtyard exploded and turned into dust in the bleak wind.

In round No. 11, the two broke into a nearby house, and the house was shattered under the sweep of thousands of saber qi, leaving only ruins on the ground.

No. In the 20th round, the two swords collided again, and there was another echo that shook the world.

At this moment, the man in Tsing Yi shook his arm, separated the old man's snow-white long knife, put the knife back into its sheath, and said calmly: "The only one in the world who can take my twenty moves with a knife is Gu Jiantang, the No. 1 swordsman. , only Qi Lianhua, the saber and armor in the Spring and Autumn Thirteen Armors."

"That's right, it's the old man. Who are you?" The saber armour, which is full of energy, is flowing, and the palm of the hand holds the saber tightly, ready to erupt another shocking saber at any time.

"Very good, since you are willing to admit it, then accept the token."

The man in the green hat smiled slightly, took out something from his bosom, flipped his palm, and threw a whistling sound of wind towards Qi Lianhua.

Qi Lianhua didn't dodge or dodge, he grasped with five fingers, he had already pinched the thrown object in his palm, he felt cold and heavy in his hand, when he looked down, there was a sign in his palm.

There are three words written on the front: Daxue Order.

Without looking at the back, Qi Lianhua knew what was written, and also understood the identity of the person who came. He raised his head and said, "You are 'Huishan Lingshi', but don't Lingshi only have women?"

The man in the green hat smiled slightly and said: "Actually, besides the envoy, there is another person who is also in charge of giving the token, but this person is not going to give it to ordinary people, but people like Daojia Qi Lianhua, Confucian sage Cao Changqing, Peach Blossom Sword." A great master like God Deng Tai'a, a great romantic person."

Qi Lianhua groaned slightly, then suddenly startled: "You... are you the owner of Huishan, Murong Tonghuang?"

"You guessed it right."

The man in the blue hat smiled again, clearly not doing anything, but his image suddenly changed drastically.

In an instant, he changed from an ordinary and handsome man in Tsing Yi to a magnificent, extraordinary and demon-like Murong Shuangkui.

"Also, your son-in-law wants to see you."
