I write novels to become a saint

Chapter 214 Dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky for the sake of sacrifice

"Lin Qian, the governor of Hongdu Mansion, bravely retreated from the barbarians and wisely captured the sixteen cities of Yanyun. Bu...I expect Lin Qian to go to Beijing to receive the reward today, hereby!"

It is no longer an image of the official seal. This time, to show his importance, Emperor Qianyuan sent a palace official to announce the decree.

Naturally, Lin Qian had no objection. He happened to be going back to Chang'an to settle the pension issue, and he set off soon after receiving the order to thank him.

"Withered vines, old trees, dark crows, small bridges and flowing water, people, ancient roads, westerly winds and thin horses, the setting sun is setting west, heartbroken people are at the end of the world..."

Riding horses, a group of three or two walked along the official road in a busy manner, looking at the walls of Chang'an City from a distance, even Lin Qian couldn't help but feel tired.

Ever since he came to this world, he has been on the go, from Changsha City to Changsha Fucheng, then to Chang'an, Jiqing Mansion, Annan Mansion, Hongdu Mansion...

Especially in the past three months, after running around under the siege of 40 troops in the northern border, when I returned to Chang'an City again and saw the little girl waiting outside the city gate, this kind of exhaustion could no longer be suppressed. out.

"Big brother, second brother!"

Lin Xinyun happily ran forward. After being promoted to Daru, Lin Qian could clearly sense that there was a team of no less than ten Xuanjing Division behind the little girl watching secretly.

With a cold snort, he smiled and asked Lin Xinyun for a while, and then, at Lin Xinyun's strong request, he talked about the experiences of the two of them these days. Of course, Lin Qian took all the dangers away.

There is no doubt that Lin Xinyun has already prepared a large table of delicious meals, and the younger sister's cooking skills are getting better and better.

After having lunch at home, Lin Qian walked towards the palace. He knew that Yong'an must still be waiting for him.

After all, those days in the palace were equally urgent, but they were rare leisure time for him.

During the period, Marquis Dongyang also sent someone to send invitations, but Lin Qian refused without hesitation. He would remember Duke Zhen's kindness to him, and he didn't mind helping the Lin family in the future, but he was indeed not interested in following this The group of people is intimate.

"Dog slave, you are here!"

When he saw Lin Qian walking into Yong'an Palace, Yong'an, who was swinging on the swing with his head down and bored, jumped off the swing with a swish, and jumped onto Lin Qian without hesitation.

After three months of absence, the longing in her heart was already as thick as honey, and now she couldn't care less.

Lin Qian also did not push away Yong'an, he had already decided, after accepting the decree to thank him this time, he would propose marriage to His Majesty!

Then the two played backgammon for a while, and Lin Qian taught her a kind of fighting beast chess. This small game was even more loved by Yong'an than backgammon. Lin Qian didn't leave the palace until it was close to Chen.

However, he had just returned home when he was notified that a celebration banquet would be held for him at the Hall of Supreme Harmony tonight, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty would go there.

His Majesty personally gave the order, so Lin Qian naturally had no reason not to go.

As soon as he walked out of the small courtyard with his elder brother and younger sister, he saw an old man on a slope looking at him with a smile.

The old man was thin, like a skeleton covered with skin, but he was very energetic. Lin Qian, who had been in the army for so long, could tell at a glance that the old man should have been a soldier before. An aura unique to soldiers.

He knew this old man, when he went to offer incense to Lord Zhen Guo, it was this old man who guided him.

"What is he doing?"

Lin Qian was puzzled, even if Dongyanghou wanted to invite him, he should know that His Majesty is hosting a banquet tonight, and the people from Dongyanghou had already come this afternoon.

If he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it. Lin Qian stepped forward and saluted respectfully. This old man was an old man who followed Lord Zhen Guo, and he was also a veteran who had experienced the war against the barbarians more than ten years ago. He deserved his respect.

The smile on the old man's face became even brighter, as if looking at a favorite junior.

However, he didn't waste too much time, and raised his hand tremblingly, took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Lin Qian, "This is the letter that Lord Zhen Guo left for you before he died. Leave it to you, I think now should be the right time."

Lin Qian took the envelope in surprise. Now that he is a third-rank Confucian, he naturally wouldn't worry about sneak attacks and assassinations. In this world, the only person who can assassinate him is the Martial God!
Even a semi-saint can be sensed by him when he gets close to a certain range. He doesn't know if other great scholars are like this, at least, he can.

When he opened the envelope, it was indeed the handwriting of Lord Zhen Guo. When he first entered Chang'an City, he also received such a letter. The handwriting on it was exactly the same as the handwriting on this letter. Likes to communicate by letter.

Zhen Guogong did as he said, did not tell anyone what happened back then, but he never said it, he didn't write it down, so even after asking, he didn't leak the slightest flaw.

Opening the letter paper, Lin Qian frowned at the contents of the letter.

What was written in the letter was the truth about that incident more than ten years ago!
The original body's father, Lin Xiaonan, did not die at the hands of the barbarians, but was secretly assassinated by Emperor Qianyuan. He used Lin Xiaonan's head to make peace with the barbarians, and signed the Tanyuan alliance at the price of ceding the sixteenth city of Yanyun.

The reason turned out to be because of Lin Xiaonan's successive victories, and Emperor Qianyuan was worried that he would support himself...

What an absurd reason!
But Lin Qian didn't doubt it, because Zhen Guogong had no reason to lie to him, and Lin Qian had heard of such a thing before, not just a big job, didn't such a thing happen on Blue Star.

Yuan Shen's father's situation back then was so similar to his own now, no wonder the old man said that now is the right time.

Lin Qian put away the letter paper, and still walked towards the palace.

Lin Qian's small courtyard was originally on the busiest Qipan Street, not far from the imperial city, but within a quarter of an hour, he had already entered the imperial city, and after another quarter of an hour, he arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, where the banquet was held.

At this time, many ministers had already come to the hall, the hall was brightly lit, singing and dancing, the ministers were chatting and laughing, it was a lively and prosperous scene.

Lin Qian took his elder brother and younger sister straight to the dining table where snacks were placed. He came in a hurry. He hadn't eaten yet and was hungry.

Half an hour later, the three of them had already eaten and drank enough, and they were sitting leisurely enjoying the singing and dancing at the banquet. For the three of them, it didn't matter where they were able to sit and chat so leisurely.

Finally, Emperor Qianyuan came late.

As soon as he entered the main hall, Emperor Qianyuan looked around, as if he was looking for someone. Finally, when he saw Lin Qian, a smile appeared on his face. He didn't go to the main seat to give a speech, but went straight to Lin Qian three people come.

"Lin Aiqing has worked hard!"

"You have made such great achievements, what reward do you want? As long as it is what I can give, I will satisfy you!"

Emperor Qianyuan seemed to be so happy that he said such words.

Lin Qian saluted first, and then his heart moved, and he said, "Recapturing the sixteen cities of Yanyun is not the result of one person, but the result of the joint efforts of the frontline soldiers. More than [-] soldiers died in this battle. I promised them that I will fight for you." They are fighting for a pension that is enough for their families to live on, so I implore Your Majesty to grant my minister's petition."

Originally, Lin Qian was not prepared to make such a request in such a public chorus. This approach was tantamount to setting Emperor Qianyuan on fire. If Emperor Qianyuan refused to agree, did it mean that he was not sympathetic to the soldiers?

If he agreed, it would be 200 million taels of silver. He didn't want to give it before, and he doesn't want to give it now either.

But after reading the letter, Lin Qian's mentality changed. He used to think that Daqian could be saved through reform, but now he found that the biggest trouble in his heart was not outside, but inside the court. Now, right here in Qianqing Palace, is Emperor Qianyuan!

"Qu Aiqing, didn't I approve Lin Aiqing's request for a memorial early in the morning? What's going on?"

Emperor Qianyuan looked at Qu Zhizhou, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he played the disaster with one hand. Take a look, everyone, it's not that I don't care about the soldiers. I have already approved it.

Qu Zhizhou has no love in his life. Obviously, he is the treacherous official, or in other words, the man who took the blame.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I didn't obey the order, it's because the treasury is empty. I really can't come up with two million taels of silver!"

Qu Zhizhou didn't dare to make the slightest excuse when he was obviously blamed, but he insisted on putting the blame on himself.

"Hmph, the treasury is empty, the treasury is empty..."

Emperor Qianyuan snorted angrily, "If the national treasury is empty, then you should find a way. Otherwise, what do I want you to do as the Minister of the Household Department?"

"Then get rid of me!" Qu Zhizhou yelled in his heart.

"I order you to collect the pension money within seven days and send it to Hongdu Mansion, otherwise, you will not be the Secretary of the Household Department!"

Emperor Qianyuan said forcefully.

This performance was beyond everyone's expectations. Today's Qianyuan Emperor is completely different from the Qianyuan Emperor they know.

If it weren't for the saying that there is no such thing as seizing a house in this world, they might all think that Emperor Qianyuan had changed.

Lin Qian, however, sneered in his heart as he watched the monarch and his ministers act. If Emperor Qianyuan really had such an attitude, no matter how bold the Household Department was, it would not dare to fool him with only 30 taels.

"Okay, this matter is settled!"

Emperor Qianyuan smiled again, "Don't worry Lin Aiqing, don't spoil the fun of today's banquet because of this matter."

At this moment, Li Rusong came out, "I've heard about Master Lin's name as a poet of Heavenly Way for a long time. It's such a grand occasion, why doesn't Master Lin compose a poem?"

"That's right, Master Lin, why don't you compose a poem!"

As soon as this proposal came out, it was full of applause.

"Everyone be quiet, be quiet, give Mr. Lin some time and space, let Mr. Lin think about it, come quickly, and prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones..."

Like Lin Qian's best friend, Li Rusong happily opened up.

"With Mr. Lin's poetic talent, how much time does it take? In ancient times, Cao Zijian wrote a poem in seven steps. With Mr. Lin's great talent, I am afraid it only takes three steps to write a poem!"

At this time, a voice sounded in the crowd.

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

Many smart people have already noticed that something is wrong, especially Cao Zijian's poem in seven steps, which is not a good allusion.

"Hahaha……"

At this moment, Emperor Qianyuan burst into a hearty laugh, "That's right, with Lin Aiqing's great talent, she must be able to compose a poem in three steps. Don't be modest, Lin Aiqing, let me pass down the name of this poem through the ages!"

"Master Lin, don't be stunned. If you can't make a poem in three steps, you will lose your head for the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Seeing Tuqiongdao, Li Rusong reminded him and made the last stab. At this moment, he and Emperor Qianyuan looked at Lin Qian coldly, as if they were looking at a corpse.

This is not a stratagem at all, just like Cao Pi's dealing with Cao Zijian back then, just highlighting a shameless force.

Emperor Qianyuan thought very clearly, didn't the saints come to threaten him last time?
Now that he is killing Lin Qian in the palace, he wants to see if those semi-sages can enter his palace. He won't make the same mistake twice.

Moreover, even if those half-sages came, Lin Qian would be dead by then, would they still fight against him for a dead person?

In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire Hall of Supreme Harmony dropped to freezing point, and everyone felt a chill in their hearts. What kind of celebration banquet is this? This is simply a dead end for Lin Qian!

They didn't even want to know why Emperor Qianyuan wanted to kill Lin Qian. They just wanted to stay away from Lin Qian so as not to hurt themselves.

Lin Qian smiled. He had already been disappointed with Emperor Qianyuan, but he didn't expect him to do such a thing.

At this moment, a person rushed in at the gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

This is a girl in a long pink dress. At this time, the girl is crying with pear blossoms in the rain.

After the girl walked into the hall, she ran straight to Emperor Qianyuan, choked up and said, "Father, I heard that you are asking the barbarians for peace, and you want to give me to the barbarians for peace, right?"

"I don't want to go to the barbarians, I don't want to marry, I want to marry a dog slave!"

Yongan's eyes were red from crying, and she couldn't even speak clearly, but everyone heard what she was saying.

Emperor Qianyuan's face changed drastically, "Come here, take Yong'an down for me. This is the minister's celebration banquet. How is it proper for a daughter of yours to come here like this?"

However, as Emperor Qianyuan shouted, no guards stepped forward.

It's just that there is an extra woman dressed in a Confucian shirt at the entrance of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

It's the eldest princess!

"Father, my son heard that Father has already negotiated with the barbarians. On the condition of ceding the sixteenth city of Yanyun and Hongdu Mansion, as well as Lin Qianlin's head and sending Yong'an to marry him, he will pay tribute to the barbarians and become a minister. , I don’t know what’s going on?”

As soon as this remark came out, the whole audience was in an uproar. The ministers who were pampered and contented with pleasure still felt that this matter was too outrageous, but the strange thing was that they didn't doubt it after hearing it. It seemed that in their hearts, this It is really something that Emperor Qianyuan can do.

"Bold!"

Emperor Qianyuan was furious. In today's world, no one dared to talk to him like this. At this moment, he even wanted to kill the eldest princess.

"If Emperor Father is not going to make peace with Manzi, then why did he have to kill Master Lin?"

The eldest princess asked back.

"Come on!"

Emperor Qianyuan yelled again, but still no one came in, his face was surprisingly ugly.

Snapped!
At this time, the eldest princess had already come to him, and he was so anxious that he couldn't wait for anyone to come, so he slapped the eldest princess himself, which showed how angry he was.

"Didn't Your Majesty ask me to compose poems in three steps?"

"The minister has already thought about it!"

At this time, Lin Qian also took a step forward, and chanted, "Don't dream vaguely curse the river of death, the hometown was 12 years ago."

As soon as this sentence came out, Emperor Qianyuan's expression changed drastically.

12 years ago, wasn't it the time when he ordered the assassination of Lin Xiaonan and gave it to the barbarians for peace?

Twelve years have passed since I left that cursed city of Chang'an.

At this time, Lin Qian took another step forward, "The red flag rolled up the serf's halberd, and the black hand hung up the overlord's whip."

The people of Dagan raised their arms to fight under the red flag, and they were fighting against the noble gentry holding high the iron whip of the overlord.

Seeing Lin Qian walking towards him, Emperor Qianyuan subconsciously took a few steps back. He seemed to see Lin Xiaonan from back then walking towards him, like a ghost demanding his life. Only then did he realize that Lin Qian had grown up. It must be too similar to Lin Xiaonan back then.

Lin Qian took another step forward, "To have the ambition to sacrifice, dare to teach the sun and the moon to change into a new sky!"

Boom!

Shocked!
A thunderous explosion sounded out of nowhere, shaking the entire Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Emperor Qianyuan's feelings were even stronger. He felt that the fate of the Dagan nation seemed to have changed at this moment. He felt that he had been abandoned by the fate of the Dagan nation...

Boom!

There was another thunderclap.

But this time it was not only the sound of thunder, but a thunderbolt illuminated the night sky and landed directly in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and on Emperor Qianyuan.

The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked. They thought of Lin Qian's killing of Huaijia Wupin Ming Yijing Confucianism Cultivator with a vision of poetry at the Dagan Poetry Conference.

"There are assassins, escort, quickly escort!"

Li Rusong shouted, but instead of using Confucianism to protect Emperor Qianyuan, he struck Lin Qian with a hidden arrow.

Even under such circumstances, he wanted to kill Lin Qian instead of protecting Emperor Qianyuan.

However, this stab in the back was blocked by Xia Yan raising his hand. Although Xia Yan frowned, he finally chose to stand by Lin Qian's side.

crackle!

The thunderbolt bombarded Emperor Qianyuan, but at this moment, a bright yellow light shrouded Emperor Qianyuan.

Lin Qian was very familiar with this bright yellow light. It was the bright yellow light that had attacked Cao Mengruan before. It was released from the dragon-shaped jade pendant on Emperor Qianyuan, and it seemed to be connected to the fate of the country.

As long as the Dagan is not destroyed, no one will be able to kill Emperor Qianyuan under the protection of the Dagan National Fortune.

"Hahaha……"

Emperor Qianyuan laughed, "You can't kill me!"

"Come on, Lin Qian conspired to rebel and assassinated me in public. This is an unforgivable crime. He should be executed Ling Chi and destroy the nine clans!"

This time, facing the charge of assassinating the emperor, no one could protect Lin Qian. He could finally kill Lin Qian justifiably!

puff!
However, the next moment, a clear voice came to everyone's ears, and Emperor Qianyuan's laughter stopped abruptly.

He stared wide-eyed at his chest, only to see a dagger pierced out of his heart, and the tip of the dagger was still flowing with bright red blood.

Emperor Qianyuan turned his head to look behind him in disbelief, and saw the eldest princess standing behind him, looking at him with a complicated expression. The dagger was held in the eldest princess's hand, and in her other hand, Also holding a dragon-shaped jade pendant.

"you……"

Emperor Qianyuan opened his mouth, but as soon as he uttered a word, blood gushed out of his mouth, making him speechless at all.

The accident happened so suddenly that no one reacted at all.

puff!
At this time, the eldest princess let go of the dagger and let Emperor Qianyuan fall to the ground. Without looking at Emperor Qianyuan again, she said loudly, "Emperor Qianyuan had no way and was condemned to death by heaven. Now I, the eldest princess Daqian, will inherit the throne of Daqian. Commander, you should do your best to help!"

With that said, the eldest princess walked towards the dragon chair in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and sat on it majestically.

It wasn't until this time that the ministers realized that they wanted to object, but they found that at some point, the Hall of Supreme Harmony had been surrounded by the forbidden army.

The eldest princess does not have many troops, but Emperor Qianyuan hosted a banquet and summoned all civil and military officials from the Manchu dynasty to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Therefore, the eldest princess only needs to control them to control the entire Daqian!
