On the Heavenly Dao Palace, the red refining electric voice was amazing, everyone looked at each other, Feng Yuanpo obviously didn't expect the red refining electric to be so direct, he was stunned for a moment, but soon smiled and said: "It turned out that it was the electric handsome, I first heard that there was a red armor red preparation to enter Fanmen City, and I still didn't believe it, I thought how could the Liaodong soldiers of the electric commander enter Hexi Town without the order of the military department, it is a violation of national law......!" He looked at Chi Lian Electric with a smile, but his voice also carried a hint of respect: "Electric Shuai, is there any reason for this to have to do it?" ”

"It's not a last resort." Chi Liandian stared at Feng Yuanpo, "The Liaodong Army is now at war with the Qingtian King, and there are many scum from the rivers and lakes under the Qingtian King, these people have no big skills, but the methods of stealing chickens and dogs and assassinating are perfect, the so-called gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, this time he came to Hexi to participate in the birthday ceremony, and he naturally had to bring some guards with him." ”

"Oh?" Feng Yuanpo said with a smile: "It's nothing to bring some guards, it's just that the electric commander's men and horses, why did they enter Fanmen City without permission?" ”

Chi Liandian said calmly: "There are too many accompanying guards, if they are all brought to the Heavenly Palace, Ben Shuai will feel that something is wrong, so Chi Bei will stay in Fanmen and wait." Why they settled in Fanmen, Ben Shuai can't figure it out now, presumably there must be a reason. Turning to the emperor, he arched his hand and said: "Shengshang, on the way to the minister, his heart was anxious, at that time Chibei was stopped outside Fanmen City, and did not enter the city, why enter the city now, the minister is also very puzzled, the minister implored the saint to send someone to investigate, if it is really Chibei who violated the law of the country, the minister is willing to be punished." ”

The emperor stroked his beard and smiled: "The Liaodong soldiers have entered the city of Hexi, and I also want to know why, so I will naturally send someone to investigate ......!" After a pause, he smiled and said, "Today is my birthday, don't talk about state affairs, all things, wait until tomorrow to negotiate." ”

When the ministers heard this, they could only say yes.

Only then did the emperor look at Xue Huai'an, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and asked, "Xue Aiqing, what are the programs today?" ”

Xue Huai'an stepped out and arched his hand: "Qi Qi Sheng, a total of thirty-six art troupes have been summoned this time, and all of them have their own unique skills...... The saint loves military music, and Zhen Koufeng has also been summoned from the capital, and Jinling Peacock Terrace has also been summoned to ......! ”

"Peacock Terrace?" The emperor raised his eyebrows.

Xue Huai'an immediately said: "Exactly, the Jinling Bird of Peacock Terrace is the dancing girl who was awarded the title of national queen by the saint back then, and this time she also brought the troupe to perform." ”

The queen showed a shallow smile at this time, and said: "Her dancing skills are really good, yes, peacock Liuyun, is it what she performs?" ”

"Exactly." Xue Huai'an smiled: "The queen still remembers her? This is still the Zhongguo Gong sent someone to summon from Jinling. ”

Feng Yuanpo had already smiled and said: "The minister has heard the name of Jinling Peacock Terrace before, but he is not familiar with it, this time to prepare for the birthday ceremony, the minister is to ask Xue Butang for advice on everything, especially this finale art troupe, let alone be sloppy, Peacock Terrace is recommended by Xue Butang to the minister, the minister heard that the dancing girl was once named the national concubine by the saint, and I think it is deeply appreciated by the saint and the queen, so I sent someone to invite it." ”

Xue Huai'an frowned slightly, thinking that this Feng Yuanpo was really two-faced and three-faced, before Xue Huai'an was worried that the emperor was dissatisfied with Jinlingque's coming, and it would involve him, Feng Yuanpo patted his chest and promised that he would bear it, but at this moment, he claimed in public that it was Xue Huai'an's intention to summon Jinlingque, and if the emperor was satisfied or not, it would not involve him Feng Yuanpo.

It's just that at that time, Feng Yuanpo asked continuously, and he also mentioned Jinlingque, although he only said the name, but after all, it had nothing to do with himself.

The emperor nodded noncommittally, but Feng Yuanpo had already turned around and said loudly: "Chief Yang, the birthday ceremony of the heavens, what is the next charter?" ”

This time the birthday ceremony was specifically handled by Yang Zhen, the director of the Hexi Rite Department, so although his status was not high, he also entered the palace and was responsible for the specific regulations.

"Qi Qi Sheng, according to the constitution, the next step should be the art troupe's performance, and then the birthday noodles will be presented to the saint, and there will be a night banquet in the evening." Yang Zhen knelt on the ground and said respectfully.

"That being the case, the list of art troupes is quickly presented to the saint." Feng Yuan said in a deep voice.

Yang Zhen did not hesitate, and said cautiously: "The minister has already made a list ......!" He took out a plate of documents from his arms, there were seven or eight copies, everyone saw this, they were a little strange, Yang Zhen said embarrassedly: "Qi Sheng, the subordinates are not completely familiar with the rules of the imperial court, so when making the list, I made a few more copies, thinking that you adults should also look at ......it!" ”

Feng Yuanpo frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you, if there are rules you don't understand, you should ask Xue Butang for advice......!" ”

"Damn it!" Yang Zhen was a little flustered, and cold sweat was even oozing from his forehead, "The ministers ask the Holy Lord to condemn ......!" ”

The emperor had already smiled and said, "Today is my birthday, and there is nothing wrong with you doing everything thoroughly." I have said that today's birthday is not the birthday of one person, but the whole world...... The list was sent to several governors, who had worked hard to defend the place for me, and today I want to rejoice with all of you! ”

Feng Yuanpo arched his hand and said, "Holy Saint." Only then did he say to Yang Zhen: "Don't submit the list yet." ”

Yang Zhen bowed forward, first presented a gilded list to the eunuch in front of the palace, the eunuch then forwarded the list to the emperor, and then Yang Zhen personally sent the list to the officials present, there are more than a dozen important ministers in the palace, the list is only eight copies, can only be distributed according to the position, Yang Zhen took the list and presented it to the red refining electricity, the red refining electric shook his head, the emperor saw it, and already smiled: "The electric marshal guards Liaodong, and the hard work is high, I know that you like the iron-blooded military music, fortunately, the earthquake has arrived, and you can naturally watch the military music when you turn around." Pointing to the name in Yang Zhen's hand, he said: "In order to organize this birthday ceremony, Zhongguo Gong took great pains, and Dianshuai also pointed out his skills, don't refute Zhongguogong's face." ”

The emperor said this, Chi Liandian could only take the list, hold it in his hand, scan it at random, and finally smiled: "Shengshang, you know that the minister is a rough man who leads troops to fight, these art troupes, the minister is really unfamiliar, or the saint is hand-picked." ”

The emperor looked at it very patiently, then he stretched out his hand to ask for Zhu Pi, ordered a few art troupes, and then the eunuch in front of the palace took the list and handed it to Yang Zhen, Yang Zhen did not hesitate anymore, and immediately went down to arrange it with the list.

The emperor said that today is his birthday, and it is inconvenient to mention more state affairs, although the prince's expression looks very calm, but in the depths of his eyes, there is a faint trace of anxiety.

The art troupe soon came to the Heavenly Dao Palace, and although everyone accompanied the emperor to watch the performance, they had their own thoughts in their hearts.

……

……

On the official road in Hexi, Feng Tianxiao and his party were hurrying to Wuping Mansion.

Feng Tianxiao led more than a dozen attendants Pegasus in front, and Wu Xuan led the twenty selected Chibei to follow closely behind, with red armor and iron faces, majestic and majestic.

When the sun was setting, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of him, Wu Xuan looked up, only to see that in the wilderness ahead, a black line suddenly appeared, the black line became tighter and tighter, and soon, he saw a group of cavalry coming head-on, the group of cavalry was hundreds of people, Wu Xuan frowned, and one hand had touched his waist.

Feng Tianxiao didn't stop, he didn't look back, he went straight to the group of cavalry, Wu Xuan's eyes became cold, and he suddenly raised his hand, and all the horsemen behind him stopped in an instant, their movements were unified, and almost at the same time, they had already pulled out the saber on their waists, they had been in battle for a long time, and had a keen sense of smell, even if Wu Xuan didn't remind them at this time, everyone knew that the danger was approaching.

"Barbarians......!" Someone in the red preparation already said in a deep voice.

The oncoming cavalry, although riding a high-headed horse, but the dress is not uniform, mainly black, although these Chibei mainly deal with the Goryeo, but also have no less contact with the barbarians, at a glance, it can be seen that the oncoming hundreds of cavalry is the barbarian cavalry of Mobei.

"Lord Qianhu, there is an ambush ...... over there!" A Chi Bei on the side said sharply.

I only heard that a group of black pressed people appeared from the left direction, also hundreds of cavalry, galloping towards this side, and almost at the same time, a group of black cavalry also appeared from the right.

"Hexi people deceive." A Chibei said sharply: "Lord Qianhu, we are surrounded ......!" ”

Wu Xuan did not hesitate, staring at Feng Tianxiao's back, he had already taken off the longbow on his back, bent the bow and arrows, and shot towards Feng Tianxiao without hesitation.

Arrows are like shooting stars.

Feng Tianxiao had obviously noticed it, his reaction was really not slow, he saw that the arrow had reached his back, but when he saw that his figure suddenly turned to the side, it was as if he was about to fall off the horse, but his legs were wrapped around the horse's back, but he hung upside down on the horse's back and dodged the arrow.

The horse's hooves rumbled, and Wu Xuan said in a deep voice: "Turn around......!" ”

"There's also an ambush ...... behind!"

At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves from behind, twenty Chibei, at this time surrounded by the enemy on all sides, but also completely surrounded in the wilderness, Chibei is of course the strongest cavalry in the world, single combat, invincible in the plains and wilderness, the most suitable for their war horses to fight, but at this moment the other party is also all cavalry, and on all sides, there are six or seven hundred people, the number of dozens of times that of Chibei, that is, the gods descend to earth, Chibei is also difficult to fly.

Feng Tianxiao passed by the oncoming barbarian cavalry, and then he turned around and shouted: "Kill all these Liaodong Chibei, take a head, and reward a thousand taels of silver!" ”

Among the barbarian cavalry, there were immediately some people shouting a few words with barbarian and shouting, most of these barbarian cavalry did not understand the Central Plains dialect, when Feng Tian laughed and shouted, they didn't understand what was being said, and when someone among the companions translated it in barbarian language, this group of barbarian cavalry suddenly had a great morale, and a thousand taels of silver was rewarded, for any barbarian cavalry, it was an astronomical amount, a hundred taels of silver could make them fearless, and a thousand taels of silver was enough for them to completely put their lives behind.
