The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 179 The Emperor Returns to the Palace
"Suicide by taking poison?"

Le Wuhui pondered and said: "This is definitely not the work of bandits."

Zhao Dongting narrowed his eyes slightly, murderous aura emerged, and said: "Go, go and have a look."

They passed through the crowd, and then saw those masters who committed suicide by taking poison in the crowd.The corners of their mouths were overflowing with blood, which was still flowing.

Although they had injuries, two of them were not fatal.That is, death purely from toxic episodes.

A master of the Wuding Hall opened the mouth of one of the corpses and said to Zhao Dongting: "Your Majesty, they have poisonous teeth in their mouths."

Zhao Dongting squatted down to look, and found that the corpse's mouth was indeed missing a tooth.Quickly look at another one, the same is true.

His face became more serious, he stood up again, and said, "Go and have a look in the woods behind."

Everyone hurried to the woods.

There were dozens of dead bodies of Wu Dingtang masters and assassins lying on the ground.

Zhao Dongting's heart twitched, these Wu Dingtang masters are precious treasures to him.He hasn't done any meritorious service yet, but he was defeated here.

Zhao Dongting knew all about their martial arts.But their losses were actually more than those assassins, which only shows that these assassins are even stronger.

It can't be bandits.

Another Wu Dingtang expert squatted down, opened the mouths of several assassin corpses, and turned around and said: "Your Majesty, they have poisonous fangs in their mouths, they are dead men."

"Dead man..."

Zhao Dongting pondered slightly, "Could it be a master of the Yuan Dynasty?"

Guangnan West Road suffered a major defeat, and the Yuan Dynasty was bound to shake the government and the public. In a fit of rage, it is very possible to send experts to assassinate him.

There are such a large number of dead soldiers with outstanding martial arts skills, which cannot be cultivated by ordinary forces.

At this time, Le Wuwei suddenly squatted down, turned over the body of an assassin, and used his sword to pick off the clothes behind him.

In the firelight, a blue tattoo was exposed.

This tattoo is round at the top and round at the bottom, like a raindrop, but the size of a soybean, if you don't pay attention, you will just think it is a mole.

Le Wuhui said with an ugly expression, "It's Tingyu Pavilion again."

His tone was also full of murderous intent.

"Damn his grandma!"

Zhao Da cursed angrily, "Tingyu Pavilion is really lingering these days."

Zhao Dongting's face gradually calmed down, but there was boundless anger, "Why does Ting Yuge always pester me?"

Since the time he sent troops out of Leizhou, he had been assassinated by Li Ge several times, and last time he almost died of tetanus.Listening to Yuge is like a gangrene, provoking Zhao Dongting again and again.

Among the martial arts hall masters nearby, someone's expression changed.

Le Wuhui said deeply: "Ting Yuge kills people, if they don't achieve their goals, they will never give up."

Zhao Dongting stopped looking at the corpse on the ground, and said: "Senior, if I don't die, Ting Yuge's assassination will be endless?"

Le Wuhui nodded, "Exactly, unless...the emperor can completely eradicate Tingyu Pavilion."

Zhao Dongting couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, and turned his head to look at Zhao Da: "Incinerate the remains of all the priests and soldiers, bring them back to Leizhou, and bury them in the Temple of the Martyrs on Xianglong Island."

Zhao Da took the order and quickly led his soldiers to clean up the corpses on the ground.

Zhao Dongting just watched silently.

The rest of the martial arts hall masters had complex expressions, and no one knew what was going on in their minds.

Over the past few days, Wuding Hall has included a total of 69 worshipers. This time, as many as 24 people were lost, leaving only 45 people.

Zhao Dongting wanted to build the highest military institution in the Song Dynasty, which had just begun, and encountered setbacks before it showed its glory.

However, this strengthened his desire to strengthen Wu Dingtang even more.

The imperial court is the imperial court, and the rivers and lakes are the affairs of the rivers and lakes.

If the forces like Yuge were to cause disaster, it would be very difficult for the imperial army to kill them, so they could only rely on the strength of the rivers and lakes.

Zhao Dongting remembered that in his previous life, when he watched the movie "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji: The Demon Sect Leader", Zhao Min, the princess of the Yuan Dynasty, wanted to destroy Zhang Wuji's Mingjiao, relying mostly on the power of the rivers and lakes, such as Cheng Kun, Xuan Ming and so on.These rivers and lakes are erratic, and it is really not easy to wipe them out with the army.

Zhao Dongting destroyed Xiulin Fort, and that was entirely because Xiulin Fort was unprepared.Otherwise, the army will be out of the air, and they will not be able to catch up with Xiulinbao's people.

That night, Zhao Dongting stayed up all night, thinking about how to strengthen the Wuding Hall.

He needs masters, real top masters and peerless masters.

And Ting Yuge failed to assassinate again, and did not come to assassinate again in the next two days.

Zhao Dongting and his party finally arrived in Haikang County, Delei Prefecture.

Because there was no fanfare, let alone the people of Haikang County, even the courtiers did not receive any news.

When Zhao Dongting returned to Haikang County this time, there was no reappearance of the scene of Wanmin welcoming and worshiping.

General Zhao showed the token to the soldiers guarding the city, and then a group of people hurried to the Haikang County Government Office, which is now the palace of the Song Dynasty.

The sky is a little groggy.

The fragrance of vegetables is everywhere in Haikang County, and the streets are full of people and cars and horses like dragons.In today's troubled times, it is commendable for Haikang County to have such a prosperous state.Even in the Southern Song Dynasty, there are few cities like this nowadays.

Zhao Dongting's chariot waded through the middle of the street, and all the flying dragon soldiers and Wu Dingtang masters galloped to protect the left, right and rear sides.With such a formation of people and horses, the chariots and horses coming from the street went straight to the side.

Ordinary people cannot ride horses when entering the city, and those who sit in sedan chairs must have fame and glory.Zhao Dongting's pedestrians belonged to both cars and horses, and everyone knew that their identities were very important.Undoubtedly, they are the top Gaoliang children in Leizhou, the descendants of those top ministers in the court.

But speaking of it, it seems that in these days, I have never heard of any descendant of an adult having such an angry behavior.The more prominent the family, the more low-key it seems.

Could it be that this is an ordinary noble who is not sensible?
Therefore, although Zhao Dongting was not worshiped by thousands of people, it still attracted the attention of countless people.

Driving across the main street and squeezing through several arch bridges, there was a little panic in the street, Zhao Dongting and his party finally arrived in front of the government office.

The government office of Haikang County is quite spectacular, with high walls and black socks, and high and wide gates.Although it is not comparable to those big cities, it is definitely considered top and majestic among the state capitals in the mere lower states.

In the past, Lord Geli was the magistrate here, except that he didn't wear the emperor's name and wear a dragon robe, but he did the things of the emperor.Searching for people's fat and people's anointing, raising private soldiers, and repairing government offices, there are many places that are beyond the reach.But at that time, the Southern Song Dynasty was corrupt and wars were imminent, but no one cared about him.

Now that Zhao Dongting, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, picked up this bargain, it can be said that he drank and pecked, and there was a definite number.

In front of the gate of the mansion, dozens of soldiers in bright armor stood upright.

This is the soldier of the left and right guards.

Originally, the security of the palace was in charge of the guards, but later Zhao Dongting promoted Yue Peng to be in charge of the official affairs of the guards, intending to train him into a tiger and wolf division capable of fighting the enemy, and all the guarding of the palace was handed over to the left and right guards. hands.

Among the soldiers, there was a centurion Dutong wearing a red cherry on his head. When he saw Zhao Da and others galloping up to the front of the mansion, his eyes froze suddenly, and he quickly signaled the soldiers to be alert.

They are responsible for guarding the palace, and if these people break into the palace for half a step, they will be punished with death.

But what reassures him a little is that Zhao Da and the others are all reining in.

Zhao Da handed his token to the centurion and said, "The emperor returns to the palace!"

When the centurion saw the words "Flying Dragon Order" on Zhao Da's token, he raised it in his heart, and then saw Zhao Dongting coming out of the chariot, and quickly knelt down on the ground, "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

He had seen Zhao Dongting before, so he recognized him.

"Be flat!"

Zhao Dongting said lightly, and looked up at the plaque on the government office.

"Hai Kang Palace."

Finally back to this place again!

During the trip to Guangxi, although he broke the Yuan army, he almost failed to come back.

Now, I just feel that all the scenery in front of me is precious.

People have blessings and misfortunes every day, and Zhao Dongting intends to live every day as his last day when he walks around the gate of hell.In this way, Fang will not disappoint this great river and mountain.

After a few glances, Zhao Dongting took Le Wuwei and Zhao Da to the palace.

After the centurion sent them off with their eyes respectfully, he hurriedly ordered the nearby soldiers to report to the Queen Mother and the ministers that the emperor's return was a big deal. Chao Wenwu had been eagerly looking forward to it for a long time, and it could be said that he was desperate .Some ministers even greeted him several times, saying that if the emperor came back, he would inform him immediately, how could he dare to neglect at this time?

Given his official rank, it is rare to have such an opportunity to form good relationships with the ministers.

Soon, the entire street in front of Xinggong was jumping up and down.
