Text Chapter 271 Crisis of Confidence
The knife struck, and the man jumped out. The old man was very close to Zhu Zipu, and when the knife was shot, his right palm was no more than a foot away from Zhu Zipu's heart.
Zhu Zipu felt a strong wind in his back, and knew that someone was sneaking up on him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and opened the distance between him and his right palm. The old man frowned, and his right palm was not withdrawn, his backhand slapped towards the steel knife, and his left palm stretched out, which was still imprinted on the back of Zhu Zipu's heart.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Anyi shot like an arrow off the string, and slammed into Zhu Zipu on the shoulder. Zhu Zipu was knocked out sideways, and Zhang Xu Yuan broke away from the old man's left palm. And the old man's left palm slapped firmly on Jiang Anyi's right chest.
"Peng"! Jiang Anyi flew upside down, Rao is body was protected with his true qi in advance, and he still felt a cold current eroding away his body's true qi, and the cold and bone-chilling true qi rushed to his chest like a cold current, Jiang Anyi opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, and actually found that the blood quickly rushed into a hard mass in the air.
Xinfei's coquettish voice sounded in his ears, and Jiang Anyi fell heavily to the ground, and he didn't know who was going to do it.
…………
Cold, his chest was like a huge piece of cold ice, the cold was about to move, surging along the meridians to the whole body, the true qi was forced to scatter everywhere by the cold, and in the haze, Jiang Anyi felt that it was difficult to breathe, the blood was about to coagulate, and the body was gradually losing consciousness and was about to turn into a piece of cold ice.
Suddenly heat poured in from his chest, hot and cold were excited, the meridians were cracking, and Jiang Anyi was so excited that he vomited a mouthful of blood and exhaled in pain. I heard a faint exclamation in my ears, and the heat receded from my chest, and soon the chill came up again.
In the drowsiness, his ears quieted down, and a warmth surrounded him, and Jiang Anyi moaned comfortably. The cold ice on his chest seemed to feel the spring breeze, and the wisps melted away in the direction of warmth.
"Anyi, try your best to dissipate your qi, and the concubine will help you heal." It was Xin Fei, Jiang Anyi instantly sobered up, and tried his best to raise the qi of the dantian, urging the true qi to run with difficulty in the meridians, and every time he passed through the cold place on his chest, the warm feeling came to his heart, and the cold qi was dissolved.
The warm feeling was intermittent, flowing through the limbs, and the chill in his chest became lighter and lighter, and the warm feeling always accompanied him. Jiang Anyi didn't know how long he had been in a coma, and occasionally flashed a moment of soberness, feeling that Xin Fei was beside him, and the true qi was running more and more smoothly, Jiang Anyi knew that his injuries were getting better.
The warm feeling shone on his face, Jiang Anyi opened his eyes, was stabbed by the sun, raised his hand to block the sun, and found himself hiding in the room. With the sun shining directly on your face through the window, it's no wonder it feels warm.
The hand can move, Jiang Anyi flashed joy, and wanted to turn over and sit up, but his chest was still painful, and it seemed that his sternum was broken. Xinfei, Xinfei saved me again, Jiang Anyi's heart swelled with gratitude, the house was quiet, no one.
"Come on, come on", Jiang Anyi shouted, finding that his voice had become hoarse and dry.
There was a guard outside the door, and when she heard the sound, a girl pushed the door in, and smiled happily: "Lord Jiang, you are awake." Amitabha, you've been asleep for five days. ”
Jiang Anyi drank a bowl of porridge under the girl's service, and soon, the house was full of people who visited, Duan Cizong, Lu Liangzhen, the people of the Duhu Mansion, and the people of Long Wei, Jiang Anyi noticed that Zhu Zipu did not appear. When Xinfei appeared with the help of Siyu, the people in the house consciously retreated, leaving space for Xinfei.
Xin Fei's face was pale, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness, and she didn't need to ask if it was because she was healing her true qi for the sake of her own injuries. Jiang Anyi lightly held Xin Fei's hand painfully, and said softly, "I've tired you." ”
Siqing said dissatisfiedly: "Senior sister is only willing to rest for three hours a day in order to heal your injuries, and the rest of the time is spent healing for you, and I am so tired that my vitality is greatly damaged, and I am afraid it will take two years to fully recover." ”
Jiang Anyi was speechless, just looked at Xin Fei's eyes affectionately, and silently told apologies and tenderness. Xin Fei let Jiang Anyi shake his hand and comforted: "Anyi, don't listen to Siqing's nonsense, I'll rest for a few days." ”
Si Yuqi snorted and said: "Senior sister, in order to better heal you, I have met you naked, it is a matter of senior sister's name, what do you say?" ”
Xin Fei's face flushed and glared at Siyu. Jiang Anyi remembered the warmth he felt in the coma, it turned out to be Xinfei's body, and his heart fluttered. Jiang Anyi looked at Xin Fei's eyes and said with a straight face: "Xin Fei, are you willing to marry me as a wife, Jiang will never be responsible for this life and this life." ”
Siqing covered her mouth excitedly, Xinfei's eyes flashed with tears, and she choked up: "I do." ”
Siyu pouted and said, "What about the dowry, and don't forget to thank me as a matchmaker." You have so many gems, remember to give me a few more. ”
Under Siyu's "coercion", Jiang Anyi made a lot of promises, and Siyu left with Siqing satisfied, giving the room to Senior Sister and Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi grabbed Xinfei's hand and rubbed it gently, relatively speechless, silent at this time.
…………
The sun was shining in Wuyang City, but the emperor Yongchang was cold and windy, and it was close to noon, and small snowflakes were floating.
Outside the Zichen Palace, Feng Zhong, the eunuch with palm prints, was anxiously pacing back and forth under the corridor, the Son of Heaven summoned the prime minister and the six Shangshu to discuss politics has not yet ended, but the few chapters he has just received are all important and urgent matters, and they cannot be delayed.
The footsteps sounded, Wei Yishen went out of the hall first, was hit by the cold wind, couldn't help but shiver, quickly tightened the fur on his body, and sighed: "Old and old, useless, a few days ago I asked Banzai to resign, Banzai always refused, no way, I had to fight this old bone to repay the grace of God." ”
With a show off in his words, the six Shangshu beside him are all human spirits, and the strings of praise of "old man is strong", "old man is strong", "old man is ambitious", and Wei Yishen laughed continuously. When he left the palace, Wei Yishen saw Feng Zhong and the black wooden box in his hand. Among the four eunuchs in the palace, Wei Yishen disliked Feng Zhong the most, because Feng Zhong was in charge of the palace secrets, giving people a feeling like a poisonous snake.
Feng Zhong saw all the important ministers coming out of the Zichen Palace, hurriedly gave a salute, and walked into the main hall with the black wooden box. Wei Yishen and the others moved in their hearts, and Feng Zhong smiled and chilled for a moment when they met them, today is abnormal, and there is a big event in the court.
Wei Yishen and the others waited under the corridor for a while, and when they heard the roar of the Son of Heaven in the hall, everyone's hearts tightened, and they didn't know where something had happened. After a while, a little eunuch flew out and said in a loud voice: "Wei Xiang, my lords, the Son of Heaven will see you." ”
Returning to the main hall, everyone saw Shi Fangzhen's angry face, the pen and ink on the table swept the ground, several little eunuchs were trembling and kneeling on the ground to clean up, Feng Zhong stood with a bitter face, the black wooden box had been opened, and it was obvious that the Son of Heaven was angry when he saw the news in the box.
Seeing Wei Yishen and the others coming in, Shi Fangzhen took a few deep breaths and asked the eunuch to re-seat. Wei Yishen relied on the old man and said: "Long live, you are angry and hurt, you have to take care of the dragon's body, Master Ziyun: For politicians, we must not be anxious for quick success and quick profit, even if there are big things......"
Shi Fangzhen flicked his sleeves, interrupted Wei Yishen's words, and said, "Feng Zhong, you give these three pieces to all the adults to read. ”
With Feng Zhong's shrill voice, there was a gust of cold wind blowing in the hall, blowing everyone cold.
The three chapters were written by Zhu Zipu, Duan Cizong and Feng Yucai, and they stated the situation of disaster relief and bandit suppression during this period from different perspectives. The disaster relief was quite smooth, and the people were rescued by the court and could barely tide over the difficulties; The suppression of bandits was not smooth, the Yuantian sect was in Qingshan Water Village, and the government lacked water masters, so it was difficult to conquer for a while; Some of the officers and soldiers of Zuo Weiwei rescued them, and some of them actually surrendered to the bandits, making the government lose face; Long Wei suffered heavy losses, and there were a large number of Yuantian sect bandits in Qingshan Water Village, many of which were fish that slipped through the net back then, and they were big fish; The infiltration of the Yuantian Sect in Bingzhou is very strong, not only the common people believe in the religion, but also there are people in the Protectorate to report the news, and there are even Yuantian Sect people lurking in the Dragon Guard......
Official articles have always been more good news and less bad news, but this time there are not many happy facts, so Jiang Anyi was held high, from sacrificing himself to sneak into the water village, recruiting the bandits of the mixed water village, and fighting with the masters of the Yuan Tianjiao, in exchange for He Pingjin, the general of Zuo Weiwei, and then to finding that there was gunpowder buried in the fighting field, saving everyone's lives, and then sacrificing his life to save Zhu Dadudu, and shaping Jiang Anyi into a loyal and brave hero.
If these were raging storms, the last news that came out of Feng Zhong's mouth was lightning and thunder, and everyone present was stunned.
More than 100,000 troops of the four countries of the Western Regions joined forces in Kouhua Prefecture on November 6, and in seven days, they connected the five counties of Yiding, Hecheng, Jingyuan, Huangren, and Xianhe, and approached the capital of Huazhou. The Western Regions army burned and plundered all the way, looting everywhere they went, and responded to the Yuantian Sect bandits. Anxi Dadu Hu Zhu Zhipu personally led an army of 80,000 to meet the attack, and the suppression of bandits in Qingshan Water Village was handed over to Ma Chenguang (Yan Songyun died under Zhou Zong's axe) and so on.
The Western Regions is on the border again, it has been eleven years since the last invasion, the war is about money and food, and I have recovered some vitality, a big war has come down, I am afraid that it will return to the past, Yu Zhijie feels that his head is aching faintly, and the joy of reporting the Son of Heaven just now is gone.
"Everyone, Aiqing, the Northwest is in turmoil, how should we deal with it?" Shi Fangzhen sat back on the dragon chair and asked in a deep voice. There was silence in the hall, and everyone was still digesting the shocking news.
Shi Fangzhen's heart drifted through a wave of panic, and what made him deeply uneasy was not the invasion of the Western Regions, but the transformation and incompetence of Long Wei. As a sharp blade in the hands of the Son of Heaven in the past dynasties, Long Wei has always been relied on, and his power has become more and more powerful. However, the more the Yuan Tianjiao was arrested, the more the Yuan Tianjiao was able to focus on thousands of people to openly rebel, not only the people, but even the court had the internal response of the Yuan Tianjiao, and even the Long Wei who captured them himself had Yuantian Sect disciples, how could Shi Fang really be discouraged.
Once the Yuan Tianjiao and the Western Regions, the Northern Desert and other forces unite, the internal instability will inevitably be unstable, then the world will really be chaotic, Shi Fang really felt a chill hit him, he glanced around blankly, not knowing who to believe.
