Chapter 5: The Siege
When the heroes heard this, they all looked back, only to see a white-faced brocade descendant walking out of the crowd under the wind horse, with a small sword at his waist, with a smile on his face, followed by a big man, tall and strong, chestnut and black, with a solemn expression, wearing a collar of blood red and warm, walking with a dragon and tiger step, and a heroic attitude,
Seeing that the two looked like masters and servants, they unexpectedly walked out of the crowd, and the latter gave the black-faced man in front, very respectful, and a small number of the heroes whispered: "That's the newly sealed Yunzhonghou," and suddenly the voice of the voice of the mosquito rose,
Qin Juexiang smiled on the stage, raised his voice and said, "Big brother, you're here too,"
This greeting was played brightly, covering up the low voice far away, and there were many people in the group who didn't know Chang Sihao's origin, and they were all surprised when they heard it, I don't know how Qin Juexiang got into a relationship with this marquis as soon as he entered Beijing.
Chang Sihao glanced back at Liu Jinwu, first went to the Zheng League Lord and bowed deeply, and then greeted Qin Juexiang, Zheng League Lord was overjoyed, personally went down the steps, led him to the person on the hill, and said: "This is the abbot of the Shaolin Temple, the master of the Xiaoshan sect, the head of the Shaolin faction today, the Venerable, this is the Chang Shaojian that Zheng Zhi told you,"
Chang Sihao heard Zheng Meng's real name for the first time, thinking that he was a junior in front of the people on the hill, so he couldn't be lazy, so he bowed his head and bowed his hand: "Chang Sihao has seen the Venerable Master,"
Xiaoshan smiled lightly: "Chang donor is famous, the old man has also heard of it in Songshan, the donor repelled me, saved countless people, and has immeasurable merits, he can be called a resident Bodhisattva, with a rising star like you, it is also a blessing in martial arts," Chang Sihao straightened up and said: "Don't dare to be, the Venerable Master has an overreputation,"
Someone suddenly flashed out on the side of the corridor, leaning behind the master of Zheng Meng, whispering in a low voice,
Before the words were finished, only to listen to the sound of the wind brushing clothes, the east and west sides of the wall jumped on the people, the hand holding the machine crossbow aimed at the center of the courtyard, each branch is three arrows of Hesse, at the same time the sound of fast steps, a black-clothed team inserted into the courtyard, quickly attached to the wall into two wings to outflank, surrounded the group of heroes, was in shock, heard someone shouting: "Flash," two messengers wearing black cloaks and hands pressed the waist knife head to open the way, break through the crowd, and lead a team straight to the front of the stage,
At a glance, the group knew that it was the people of the East Factory, and the uproar disappeared immediately, and suddenly the sound of the official boots on the ground was full of ears.
The road-opening officer rushed to the front of the stairs and separated, and one of them let out a person, and some of the heroes recognized it, and when they saw it, they were startled, and the hand that touched the blade in their arms also retracted,
Chang Sihao let him take a look on the side, and saw that this person was about forty years old, with a seven-foot figure, born with a thin face with a knife, owl eyebrows, eagle nose and thin lips, wearing a black gauze flying wing crown, two tight hats and velvet ropes with square jade buckles were knotted under the chin, hanging straight to the front of the abdomen, wearing an iron blue collared official uniform, the cloud pattern was faint, the brocade wave was hidden, obliquely draped in a white velvet coat, covering less than half of the side, wearing a black shark skin glove of the right hand, and pressing an official silver fastener green lacquer sheath willow leaf wind knife at the waist,
Xiao Chi presided over the White Pagoda Temple, and had a lot of contacts with dignitaries, and when he saw it, he was full of smiles, and hurriedly went down the steps to greet him: "It turned out that Cao Zhangye was coming, and the little monk was unwelcome, hoping to beg for forgiveness," said and bowed down,
"Hahaha,"
Cao Xiangfei was a large block taller than him, lowered his head slightly, swept his eyes down, a pair of yellow-eyed radio, and the eagle was angry: "No need, the master is okay lately," The voice was also strange,
Xiao Chi smiled: "Thanks to the master's blessing, it's okay, it's okay,"
Zheng Mengzhu and Qin Juexiang both came over to make a noise, and Cao Xiangfei smiled and said: "What a coincidence, the two good friends are here, Xiao Qinye, have you had a good time in Beijing these two days?"
Qin Juexiang smiled: "Recently, I have been learning kung fu from Uncle Zheng, but I haven't been wandering around,"
Cao Xiangfei said: "Oh, Zheng Dajian is willing to teach you, then you have to study hard, there are many good things in his league, there is only one problem: if you don't squeeze it, you don't love pus," Zheng Meng said: "The master is joking, when the year is over, I was about to visit the house recently, but I didn't expect to meet here, it's really a coincidence," Cao Xiangfei said: "Hey, the body of the prince must not be his own, you don't know about me yet, I can't touch the house all day long, alas, annoying,"
Xiao Chi smiled: "Please go to the abbot to serve tea,"
"Not busy,"
Cao Xiangfei opened his hand to stop it, buckled his body, and swept his eyes towards the courtyard ring: "I heard a report early in the morning that a large number of martial arts people suddenly gathered in Beijing, and there are also many local sects to gather for action, I didn't expect to gather here with you, this incense in the Venerable Master's Temple is going to be very prosperous,"
Most of the heroes didn't dare to look at each other, lowered their heads, and some just looked away, and the people of several sects such as Tai Chi and Bagua all bowed their bodies when they were swept by the gaze, and nodded to Cao Xiangfei with a smile.
Koike smiled: " The master asked, the little monk did not dare to hide it, just because a few months ago the Kagyu sent the Chilie master promised to send someone to Beijing to promote the Dharma, the little monk was overjoyed, so he made an appointment and invited the senior brother Xiaoshan to come to Beijing to participate in the study together, to participate in the grand event, Shaolin affairs are busy, the senior brother is left behind, last night to arrive, just because he has a martial arts identity, so many friends of the rivers and lakes and green forests have appreciated the greetings, master, brother, this is the head of the four masters of the East Factory Cao Xiangfei Cao Dazhang, master, this is the master of Danba Thornton, this is the little monk's brother Xiaoshan Zongshu, the current abbot of Shaolin, ”
The man on the hill stood up with one palm and lowered his eyes and said, "Amitabha, the poor monk is so polite," Danba Sandon also made an inquiry later, he was weak at the moment, clumsy and difficult to mention, his movements trembled slightly, and he looked very scared,
Cao Xiangfei glanced at him, didn't take him seriously at all, puffed up his chest and said to Xiaoshan: "Ouch, don't you dare to be, Shaolin is a famous martial arts master, amazing, speaking of the martial artist who gave me a hand when I was a child, he was a disciple of the Shaolin layman, I was only twelve or thirteen at that time, this day passed, it was really fast,"
The man on the hill smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the master and Shaolin still have such a relationship, so we are not outsiders,"
Cao Xiangfei laughed and said: "Yes, it's a pity that the martial artist taught things to hide left and right, and he was not happy, and I was later beaten to death by me with a ring ruler, and I forgot to ask him which one he inherited, or I would like to talk about it now, but I can talk to you about the generations and talk about it, hahaha,"
The person on the hill was embarrassed when he heard this, and his face was quite unnatural, while Xiao Chi laughed silently, and seemed to know the character of the big master very well, and it was normal to listen to what he said.
While Cao Xiangfei was laughing, a pair of eagle eyes swayed left and right to observe everyone's expressions, and swept to Liu Jinwu, who was hiding next to him, then abandoned the half-embarrassed hill, turned around and said: "Ouch, this is not Xiao Liu's manager, why are you so idle today,"
Liu Jinwu said with a smile: "Boss Cao came to make fun of me again, my brother is also a public body, where does the idle work come from, today I was ordered by the Holy Order, and accompanied the Hou Ye out on a business trip," Cao Xiangfei "Oh," and looked at him wrongly: "This is," Liu Jinwu said: "This is the emperor's newly sealed royal brother the day before yesterday, Hou Chang Sihao in the clouds,"
Cao Xiangfei's body condensed slightly, and he suddenly shook his clothes and rushed forward, nailed one leg to the ground, and lowered his head and said: "Cao Xiangfei, the chief of the East Investigation Factory, please say hello to Master Hou,"
His voice was originally very loud, and this time the Hou Ye shouted even brighter,
Chang Sihao first saw him rushing towards him, his heart tightened, his body did not move but moved first, he was already planning a counterattack, but he didn't expect the other party to kneel down, and he was stunned there, at the same time, in the afterglow, hundreds of eyes of the heroes in the courtyard looked at him together, and for a while there were different expressions of surprise, surprise, envy, contempt, and disgust, Qin Juexiang hid half of his body behind the master of Zheng Meng, his eyes were shining and eager, and the corners of his mouth were hooked,
Seeing that there was no answer, Cao Xiangfei stood up by himself and said to Liu Jinwu: "Cao is just a routine inspection, since Master Hou and Manager Liu are here by holy order, they should put you first in everything, please,"
Liu Jinwu nodded, took out the yellow silk scroll from his arms, held it high, and said loudly: "There is a will,"
Cao Xiangfei hurriedly avoided behind him, and his subordinates knelt down one by one, Xiaoshan, Xiaochi, Zheng Mengzhu, and Qin Juexiang looked at each other in pairs, the people in Dongchang were like this, how could others dare to make a mistake, and they all went down to follow each other, the white-clothed lamas in the temple, and the monks brought by the Shaolin Temple all knelt in place, and the heroes in the courtyard were either from the martial arts, or from the green forest, many people committed important crimes, carrying several lives on their backs, and the personnel were extremely mixed, and most of them had wild personalities and were unrestrained, but looking at it, even the leader of the Hundred Swords Alliance, The young masters of the Qin family have all knelt down, they are weak, what is there to say, they each glanced at the crossbowmen on the wall, and they all fell down, the boss of Danba Thornton was reluctant, pulled the warm fur given by the emperor on his body, moved his steps down the steps, and reluctantly knelt behind Xiao Chi,
Chang Sihao's heart twisted, he always vaguely felt that the momentum was wrong, and he was hesitating, but he saw Liu Jinwu hand over the holy decree, and whispered in his ear: "The emperor ordered you to announce the decree, I will only accompany you, why did you forget," said he had already withdrawn his hand and retreated,
The yellow silk scroll sank in his hand, and his heart also had weight, Chang Sihao looked around the courtyard, the colorful wind and horse flags were hunting, and a back under the prayer flag was like hundreds of grave bags, and the eyes were all over the ground, no one made a sound, and thought secretly: "Today's matter is strange, I am worried that this holy decree is not conducive to the sound, and I specially sent a message to him to avoid it, but the door of the Hundred Swords Alliance has made a mistake, just now Liu Jinwu shouted through the crowd and came out, it is even more abrupt, and now this situation is here, what does it mean?"
Liu Jinwu raised his gaze slightly, and reminded in a low voice beside him: "Master Hou, it's cold on the ground, it's not suitable for everyone to wait,"
Chang Sihao knew that he couldn't get rid of it, glanced at him, hesitated slightly, and strode onto the small platform.
Cao Xiangfei and Liu Jinwu followed, standing behind him on the left and right,
Chang Sihao's head and neck did not move, his eyes slid left and right, turned back and looked back, snorted secretly in his heart, tore off the envelope, brushed the lala scroll and unfolded it, and read slowly: " Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: Tatar Tumut Department I answered, its nature is wild, led the department to repeatedly commit border courts, looting and doing evil, now there are Taiyuan merchants Qin Langchuan cherished the family and country, loyal and righteous, helped the Datong defenders to plan and break the thief, made miraculous achievements, unfortunately died in the battle array, it is a pity, the nuclear is plain and upright, there is an ancient style, the family discipline is strict, the name of the place is heavy, its heart is commendable, its festival can be praised, its wind can be expressed, its virtue can be praised, especially posthumously awarded it as the old man of Zhuang Yi, the reward of a thousand gold, for the military and civilian example, in addition, through the clouds Hou Chang...... Sihao ...... Recommended, Qin Langchuan's grandson Qin Juexiang, young and intelligent, intelligent, skilled in bows and horses, can be commissioned, and named him the deputy thousand households of Jinyi Wei, and went to Nanzhen Fusi to receive the reward and take up his post on the same day, admiring this,"
There are a lot of words in this holy decree, Chang Sihao read it slowly, and gradually felt relieved, and when he read the last sentence, he suddenly realized again: "No, the emperor sealed the sound in Jinyiwei, so wouldn't it be called by the East Factory," When his mind was long, his eyes quickly spread out on the backs of hundreds of East Factory officials in the court, and a lock of cold wind whined in strings, into his neck, and the kind of ice stubble-like sharpness made him clear when he arrived:" Jue Xiang hated these people very much in his heart, how could he be willing to be this thousand households, and use me as a leader in the holy decree, the meaning is self-evident, this time it is really going to respond to Jiang Wan's words, it is not today, it is the emperor who has set up a situation to provoke him, and he wants to take him,"
Suddenly, I heard a childish and loud voice from the bottom of the stairs: "Minister, Qin Juexiang, thank you Lord Longen, long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live," the words were finished, Qin Juexiang stood up three times, bowed his head and walked in small steps, and came to the front of the bright palms, and his hands were held high above the top,
Chang Sihao stared at him for a long time, slowly retracted the scroll, solemnly delivered, watched him shrink back to his place, his eyes lowered, he still didn't look at anything unusual, and he didn't look up, and he was secretly surprised in his heart: "The forbearance of the absolute sound is not what it used to be today, it is much better than when it was in Datong," At this time, Xiaoshan, Xiaochi, Zheng Mengzhu, Danba Santon, and the group of heroes have all bowed and stood up,
Cao Xiangfei shouted: "Come on,"
