Ten Capitals, Nine Observations, Eight Poles, Seven Yuans, Six Divisions, Five Elders Compete for Da

The so-called "Yinghuo" refers to a fire-like star in the night sky, whose whereabouts are elusive.

When it invaded the second star of Antares, that is, the field of Great Mars, it was a celestial phenomenon that many historians, fortune-tellers, and stargazers were shocked by——

Frightening and guarding your heart!

But at this very moment, Yinghuo, the legendary evil star in troubled times, had unknowingly invaded the star domain of Antares.

Inside the mysterious bronze coffin, Jiang Chen didn't notice it, and he was still polishing the two ribs wholeheartedly to make them sharper.

"呲~沙!"

Jiang Chen absorbed Song Batian's self-understanding of "Thirteen Hammers to Kill Officials", and finally truly understood the reason for the blood scarf army's rebellion.

Liangzhou has a lot of drought and little rain, and the people live without food, which is the opposite;

County magistrates from all over the country insist on pursuing martial arts, search for rich people in the county in order to be promoted to the rank of general, and pay countless miscellaneous taxes, which is the opposite of the two;
A group of shameless tax collectors actually shifted most of the tax burden to ordinary people. How unfair is it that wealthy households in eunuchs use tactics such as flying and sending tricks to avoid paying taxes to the servants?These three antis are also;
The powerful and powerful surnames, taking advantage of the hardships of the people, nibble away at the fields, the fields of the rich are connected with rice paddies, and the poor have no place to stand, these are the four evils;
The corvee is endless, tens of thousands of people are conscripted as civilian husbands, farming work is missed, and the fields are left unused. These are the five evils;

The plague is rampant, and the food reserves accumulated by the poor people with great difficulty are all polluted. This is also the six evils;
David established the kingdom by force.

All over the world, among the many families of military soldiers, only the Zhang family, who has inherited the "great virtuous and good teacher", cares a little bit for the common people.

In other eight-and-a-half states, if military pawns clashed with common people, no matter who was right or wrong, the government would not dare to point the conflict at groups with force.

In the prison, I don't know how many innocent people were imprisoned, and I don't know how many soldiers murdered and set fire, and they got away with it... These seven crimes are also!
The David Wu Dynasty, which occupied the 81st county of Kyushu, seemed to be full of flowers on the surface, and the fire was cooking oil, but the root cause was already stench beyond words.

The people have seven antis, so - the country has seven perishes!
"呲~沙!"

Jiang Chen's eyes were cold and frightening.

He finally felt the opportunity to advance in Taijiu Saber from Wanmin's hardship, despair, and even resentment and many other negative emotions.

It is a fierce knife, a knife to kill officials, and a knife to rebel!

Do not!
This is not rebellion.

Those low-level blood scarf soldiers should not be called "rebels". They are you, me, him, and the uprising of all peoples!

The will of the people is God's will!
The anger in Jiang Chen's heart was the anger of the heavens, but on the bright side, he faced the bronze coffin wall in the direction of Kyushu and said in a deep voice:

"General Wei Xuan, General Hongwu, General Wei Anguo, and the last general Jiang Chen, disarm and return to the fields!"

The voice just fell.

Lingering in Jiang Chen's soul, the last few rays of the blessing of David's national fortune disappeared.

This also means:

From tonight to this moment, Jiang Chen and David Wuchao...have nothing to do with each other!
Get out of the cage.

Return to freedom!
boom!
Jiang Chen finally comprehended his first superior martial art!

[Seven anti-seven perishes (Superior Martial Arts): The people use all things to support the country, and the country has no one good to benefit the people; I don’t know that locusts and beetles are all over the world, and the suffering is exhausted. Therefore, bring all the people to rebel and overthrow the world! 】

[Note [-]: The more rebellious the heart is, the stronger the sword technique will be, which can slightly mobilize the hatred and rebellion of the people against the imperial court, and enhance the power of the sword! 】

[Note [-]: If you kill any county guard or bloodline of the emperor in public, and advertise it to the world, you can get the favor of Yinghuoxing, and sublimate to supernatural powers: seven deaths and seven deaths! 】

The moment when the sword technique is comprehended.

Distant Astral Realm.

Ying Huo Xing, who was originally not interested in Kyushu, suddenly moved a little bit to the star field of Antares.

That is--

Frightening and guarding your heart!

Emperor disaster rises!

…………

Zhongzhou.

Yujing City.

Too often a garden.

Sima Xiutu broke out in a cold sweat, instinctively ran out of the bedroom, strode to the courtyard, raised his head to stare at the night sky, and said with horror on his face:
"Could it be..."

"Yinghuo guards the heart?!"

Sima Xiutu stared in the direction of Weiyang Palace, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

The old emperor hadn't left his palace for twenty days. Could it be possible that, like the emperors of the past, he couldn't survive seven or seven catastrophes?
…………

Weiyang Palace.

In a luxurious dormitory, several guard dragon generals guard the outer door. On the surface, they are looking ahead, but from the corner of their eyes, they are staring at a blood-colored cocoon inside, which looks extremely terrifying!
This is:

"Emperor Dragon Cocoon!"

It is something that must be condensed before the death of each generation of emperors.

In the blood cocoon, they will extract all three parts of the emperor's elixir in their bodies, and then transfer them to the successors.

The only person qualified to serve this dragon cocoon is Queen David Guo.

That's why.

In these [-] days, the huge court hall has almost become the one-word hall of the right prime minister Cao Shuang.

All decrees come from the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

It can be described as a monopoly!
Cao Shuang touched his slightly fat belly, pretending to say:

"Zhongda, Your Majesty will entrust the heavy burden to you and me. It is better for you to spend all day free and play with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Sima Zhongda hunched over his old waist and looked like an old man dying in the wind. He sighed deeply:

"I'm an old man from the time of Emperor Ling. I rarely took all kinds of life-burning medicines, so I survived the troubled times. Now, I don't have a few years to live. Why bother?"

talking.

Sima Zhongda approached Cao Shuang, smiling all over his face:
"On the other hand, you, Prime Minister You, are still in full bloom, strong and strong, and it is a good time to share the worries of the country."

Cao Shuang stood out with a fat belly, with a look of joy on his face, and said to himself:

"Never mind."

"Zhong Da is old, and he should really worry less about government affairs and cultivate his body more."

"Don't worry, under the leadership of Truth, at most ten years, I, David Wu Dynasty, will be able to reform the system of military officers, clean up the long-standing abuses, attack the Xiongnu in the north, and create a great cause that can only be achieved through the ages!"

Between words, full of confidence.

Cao Shuang has been in and out of the court as a clan since he was a child. After Cao Rui ascended the throne, he served as a servant of Sanqi, a lieutenant of the city gate, and then a general of Wuwei.

Decades of ups and downs in the officialdom also made him deeply feel the many ills hidden under the shadow of the prosperity of the David Wu Dynasty.

Therefore, he wants to follow the example of "Huo Guang's old affairs" in the past, temporarily occupy the position of a powerful minister, and then carry out internal reforms from top to bottom, especially...

Reduce military rights!

The rights of more than [-] military soldiers in Kyushu are too generous.

It's like more than 20 blood-sucking worms, constantly absorbing the vitality of the David Wu Dynasty. In just a hundred years, the people have been exhausted to the extreme.

It is also the root of the birth of [The First Cause of Troubled Times].

Sima Zhongda frowned slightly, worried in his heart whether Cao Shuang would reform indiscriminately and bring down the David Wu Dynasty before he completely seized power.

So carefully advise:

"If the Bazhou local army is dissatisfied..."

Cao Shuang laughed and said arrogantly:
"Like the Qingzhou army, it took almost half a year to attack the mere Loulan. According to the facts, these local troops are not very capable."

"If there is any objection, the real minister will personally lead the [-] Yulin army and sweep all directions!"

The corner of Sima Zhongda's mouth twitched.

Cao Shuang didn't know much about the war in the Western Regions, but he knew it very clearly through the channel of Luojiao.

The reason why the Qingzhou Army was trapped for several months was because of the existence of "Ritual: Ghost Gate".

After the four cities in the east, west, north, and south were destroyed, and Zhang Longxiang killed more than twenty Loulan king souls in one go, the Qingzhou army quickly killed tens of thousands of soldiers, dozens of generals, and Loulan's second associate in just a few days. Artifacts are all destroyed...

It was these achievements that made the old emperor feel a little jealous. Not only did he suppress the national fortune awards, but he also ordered the Qingzhou Army to participate in the counter-rebellion in Liangzhou.

The intention is very clear!

Borrowing the blood scarf traitors to consume Qingzhou's military power!
As for the Habayashi Army...

…………

A nobleman:
"My son needs to go to the army to brush up his resume. It is too dangerous to go to the border, and it is meaningless to go to a local county. It is most suitable to come to your army."

Lieutenant Habayashi (frowning dissatisfied): "But, we only recruit the orphan of David..."

A certain Xungui: "You should think of a way, this is a trivial matter."

Lieutenant Habayashi: "What do you mean?"

A certain Xungui: "It's not interesting, it's interesting."

Lieutenant Habayashi (laughs): "You are really interesting."

A certain Xungui: "Actually, there is no other meaning."

Lieutenant Habayashi: "Then I'm sorry."

A certain Xungui: "I'm sorry."

The two smiled at each other.

As a matter of fact, the noble children who have parents, forcibly taking the "orphan" elixir often have extremely poor results, the increase in combat power is very small, and it is extremely difficult to digest the medicinal properties.

For more than a hundred years, the Habayashi Army has long been disarmed, and a large number of heroes and honorable children are flooding it, walking birds and fighting crickets all day long, making the combat power extremely stretching.

The heroes in the early years of the dynasty were all outstanding, but their descendants were born with a golden key in their mouths from the moment they were born. After a long time, where can they carry a knife?Where is willing to endure the torture?Who is willing to study martial arts intensively?
The old emperor also tried to reform one or two. He once mobilized [-] Yulin troops to the border of Qingzhou to conquer the bitter and cold land in eastern Liaodong.

But people are not as good as heaven, the old emperor didn't realize how ridiculous this group of honorable children had degenerated into?

At that time, Hong Wu, the general of Qingzhou, immediately knew that something was wrong after receiving the decree. This was equivalent to sending [-] masters of Yujingcheng to Liaodong!

Hong Wu is very clear.

If any "Master Yujing" died of starvation or freezing to death in Liaodong, it would inevitably lead to the central honorable group's disgust towards Qingzhou, which would intensify the conflict between the central and local governments.

Therefore, the local government in Qingzhou immediately took action.

The officials quickly built a greenhouse in the warmest non-salty volcanic area in eastern Liaodong, and raised thousands of livestock in captivity, providing a rich supply of meat day and night.

In addition, the Qingzhou government also hired [-] civilian husbands and [-] dancers to serve these Habayashi army masters.

Even so, these noble children are still not used to living here.

Or, flee back to Yujing City, relying on the relationship of the parents, drink three cups of wine as a fine, it will not be an example, if there is a next time, then it will not be an example;

Or, in the land of Liaodong all day long, drinking, walking birds, and bullying the people of Liaodong.

…………

"Thinking to rely on this group of useless wood to reform the system is tantamount to seeking death!"

Sima Zhongda thought to himself, and decided to think of ways to kill Cao Shuang and his clan as soon as possible after the old emperor passed away.

But on the bright side, he smiled and said respectfully:

"This matter can wait until the crown prince ascends the throne, and then make plans."

Cao Shuang nodded, raised his chin, and said a little arrogantly: "At that time, Prime Minister Zuo, please keep silent and don't hinder the reform of the truth."

"Don't worry, Prime Minister You, Zhong Da is getting old, and he just wants to go home with Sun Nongyi and enjoy his old age peacefully."

Sima Zhongda supported his old waist, and said with a tired face:

"If it wasn't for His Majesty's order to let the old minister teach the prince for a few years, Zhong Da would have written a letter and begged for the corpse to return to his hometown for burial."

Cao Shuang was about to speak when suddenly his whole body trembled, his whole body was icy cold.

At this moment, he only felt a certain great danger, suddenly swept over, a terrifying cold air from the tailbone, up the back, straight to the brain.

Cold and scared!

Sima Zhongda was also generally cold and frightened, his limbs and bones felt extremely dangerous, and then he seemed to have remembered something, and immediately raised his head to stare at the sky.

But see:

Two fiery red stars gradually approached, to be precise, they were Yinghuoxing, which invaded the star field where Antares was located.

"not good!"

"It's actually a situation where Yinghuo guards the heart!"

Sima Zhongda panicked in his heart, this sudden astrological change completely disrupted his layout.

The heart of Prince Cao Fang has not been completely corrupted into a faint king, but he can still absorb part of the emperor's elixir and become an emperor.

His "Yumen Pass backup plan" has not been fully prepared.

as well as……

Certain important and confidential communications have not yet been completed!
"Damn!"

"Why are there always so many variables?"

Sima Zhongda was so anxious that he turned his head and looked at Cao Shuang. With a very serious expression, he quickly said, "Prime Minister Zuo, this is the guardian of the heart, which often symbolizes the ominousness of the emperor's family. We need our servants to guard..."

Cao Shuang also knew that the matter was of great importance, so he said immediately:

"Okay, you and I are both Minister Tuogu, we should go to the bedroom and have an audience with the Holy Majesty."

soon.

The two arrived at the bedroom.

The guards outside the gate, seeing the prime ministers on the left and right, hurriedly stepped aside and said respectfully:
"Meet the two prime ministers."

Cao Shuang was impatient, and immediately strode into the bedroom, and asked loudly: "Empress, Your Majesty's health, has it ever gotten better?"

Guo frowned slightly, and said lightly:
"Prime Minister You is really impatient."

Cao Shuang didn't take it seriously, knowing the health of the old emperor Cao Rui, that is, the time when the dragon's cocoon broke, was the top priority.

Sima Zhongda has always been cautious, and did not step into the bedroom.

Standing outside the door, he respectfully said to Mrs. Guo:
"Empress, you have been taking care of His Majesty for half a month. It's really hard. Why don't you let the prince enter the palace overnight to show your filial piety?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Guo felt much better immediately, and said with a smile:
"Fang'er is filial, and took the initiative to take care of this palace for a period of time during the day. It is estimated that at this time, he has just fallen asleep, and he will be announced tomorrow."

Sima Zhongda understood the meaning.

Although "Yinghuo Shouxin" is extremely dangerous and greatly speeds up the process, it is not enough to make the emperor die immediately. Tomorrow, at the latest but the day after tomorrow, is...

Change the world, the time for the emperor's funeral!
Go home late today, try to be early tomorrow.
