That year, that cicada, that sword
Chapter 624
Chapter 624
Beside Lin Han and Qing Chen, at some point, there was an ethereal figure, the whole body was full of radiance, the face could not be seen clearly, and it did not look like a real person.
Lin Han had already taken off the Qiushui long knife around his waist, leaned on the knife with both hands, turned his head and said with a smile: "After all, you are still here, but it is really hard for a son of a thousand gold to make such a battle. .”
The man said flatly: "There are some changes, I have to come here in person, but the problem is not big, nothing to worry about."
Lin Han said to his heart with words: "You said you can't enter the imperial capital, okay, now that Xiao Xuan ran out of the imperial capital by himself, you still don't show up, do you want the mantis to catch the cicada and the oriole behind?"
The man denied: "It's too early to say that."
He turned his head and looked in the direction of Meishan, "I've lost nearly half of my cultivation without passing near the Ming Tomb once. Something's not quite right."
Lin Han said noncommittally, "Then what did you see?"
The man said calmly, "Mingling seems to be a bit weird."
Lin Han couldn't help but sneered, "Mingling is eccentric. It's a well-known fact, so you need to say it? Tell me something useful."
The man did not answer, but instead said: "Actually, you may not know that the Circular Mound Altar, as the place where Xiao Yu ascended the throne, is also the place where the emperors of all dynasties worship the heavens. In the imperial city, if Xiao Yu stood there, he could almost use the emperor's sword that killed Fu Chen back then."
Lin Han suddenly said anxiously: "Xiao Huaiyu, why didn't you say this earlier? Say it at this time, what's the difference with farting?"
The person who came was the king of Wei who was regarded as a confidant by the two emperors of Daqi, and Xiao Jin, a whale fisherman in the East China Sea who single-handedly planned today's great changes.
Xiao Jin didn't get angry, and said calmly: "There is no difference."
Lin Han also seemed to know Xiao Jin's temper, so he stopped being harsh and asked, "Does Xiao Xuan have this ability?"
Xiao Jin said firmly: "No."
Lin Han frowned slightly and said, "So sure?"
Xiao Jin explained: "The theory of the Three Swords is the Common People's Sword, the Prince's Sword, and the Son of Heaven Sword. Holding it in spring and summer, walking in autumn and winter, this sword is straight forward, lifted up, pressed down, swung around, up to break the clouds, down to the ground. Once this sword is released, it will conquer the world. This is called the Son of Heaven The sword also. Xiao Yu was able to cultivate this sword, not because he was so amazing, but because he just stood in the position of the general trend. Xiao Xuan, who is also the emperor's honor, can't do it either."
Lin Han breathed a sigh of relief.
If Xiao Xuan also had Xiao Yu's ability to kill Fu Chen first and then fight Shangguan Xianchen, then don't fight this battle, just pack up and go home for the New Year.
He asked bluntly, "Why did you come here?"
Xiao Jin said softly, "I'll find out later."
Lin Han snorted and stopped asking.
At this moment, a blood-colored rainbow flashed across the heads of the three of them, and it disappeared in a flash.
Lin Han raised his head to the direction where the blood rainbow disappeared, and sneered, "The grand Daoist, the leader of the Fuzhuan Sect, is so timid, it's really useless."
He turned his head to look at Qing Chen beside him, and asked, "Master Qing?"
Qing Chen nodded and took a step forward.
……
Little Weiyang Palace.
The three of Xu Beiyou moved the empress's body into the apse for the time being, and then Xu Beiyou came to the outer hall alone to wait. After about half a stick of incense, it was faintly visible that all the officials, civil and military, were escorted by the imperial army in the vast snowstorm. , come this way.
The leaders were none other than Zhang Baisui, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial supervisor, and Han Xuan, the second assistant to the cabinet.
Xu Beiyou went forward to greet them, and after seeing each other, Han Xuan asked, "Where are the Empress, Your Highness the Crown Prince, and Your Highness the Princess?"
Xu Beiyou hesitated for a moment, then said softly: "The Empress has passed away, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Princess are in the apse."
Zhang Baisui and Han Xuan glanced at each other. Zhang Baisui had noticed it just now, but he was not sure. Now after hearing Xu Beiyou's words, he was finally sure that while he was guessing in his heart, his emotions were inevitably complicated.
Han Xuan was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Go to pay homage to the Queen Mother first, and then discuss with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Zhang Baisui sighed, "That's the only way to go."
Hundreds of officials entered the hall one by one, but the three of them stayed outside the door for the time being, standing in the boundless wind and snow.
Xu Beiyou asked, "How is your Majesty doing?"
Zhang Baisui glanced at him, "Apart from the thousands of imperial guards, only Prime Minister Lan, Governor Wei, princes and a group of military officers are still guarding there."
Xu Beiyou was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Since there is Mr. Pingan guarding this place, it is useless for me to stay here. I might as well go to His Majesty's side, maybe I can do my part."
Zhang Baisui was noncommittal, and looked at Han Xuan, "Mr. Han, what do you mean..."
Han Xuan looked at this adopted son who was almost the same as his parent and child with a complicated expression, hesitating to speak.
Xu Beiyou lowered his head slightly, without looking into his father's eyes, and said softly: "Your Majesty asked me to protect the Empress, but I failed to do it well. I can't redeem myself for today's matter. This trip is nothing but atonement. It's also revenge, to comfort the spirit of my mother-in-law."
"So..." Han Xuan sighed, "Then let's go."
Xu Beiyou folded his sleeves and bent over, bowing to the ground.
"Where are you going?" A woman's voice sounded faintly.
Xu Beiyou looked back, Xiao Zhinan wrapped in a cloak was standing on the steps in front of the main hall, looking at him steadily.
After Han Xuan and Zhang Baisui looked at each other again, they walked into the hall in silence, leaving this place for the young couple.
The husband and wife went up and down, looking at each other.
Maybe it was because of the cold weather, Xiao Zhinan's face was a little pale, and there were still traces of tears on it. She pressed her lips tightly and looked at Xu Beiyou without flinching.
In the end, it was Xu Beiyou who took the initiative to back down, turned his gaze away, and replied softly, "Go to His Majesty."
Xiao Zhinan let out an oh, didn't speak, and still looked at him.
Xu Beiyou said slowly: "You said earlier that you hope I don't bet all on the honor of this surname. If I retreat, I will retreat. I know that you are doing it for my own good, but when the empress went, I But suddenly I want to understand many things, many things in the world don’t need to be calculated so finely, maybe sometimes, you can ask yourself what your heart is, the journey of sword cultivation is never a way of striving for longevity.”
Xiao Zhinan bit his lips lightly, "Mother is gone, maybe in the past many years, our mother and daughter were not in harmony, but after all, she is the mother who gave birth to me and raised me, now that she is gone, I am very sad, I I don’t want anyone I care about to leave me.”
Xu Beiyou stood in the wind and snow, his white hair fluttering with the wind, confused with the white snow all over the sky. After a long silence, he reached out and pressed his hand on his chest.
Although Xu Beiyou didn't say anything, Xiao Zhinan knew what he was talking about.
She said word by word: "Come back alive, this is what you promised me."
Xu Beiyou nodded heavily, turned around and was about to leave, but hesitated again.
Xiao Zhinan stood behind him and said softly, "Go, don't look back."
Xu Beiyou didn't look back in the end, he strode away and disappeared into the snowstorm.
