My clone is on the other side of the starry sky

Chapter 201 This is a good knife

For the senior members of the Jiang family, no one expected that Jiang Song would die so suddenly in the main hall. It is not that there are no disciples of the Jiang family in the main hall. Not long ago, news came that he had successfully assisted the government. , not even half a day later, Jiang Song died in the main hall.

Although there are many masters in the court, the palace is protected by luck. Unless there is an order from the emperor, whoever takes action here will be unlucky.

The unfathomable power of God can truly be expressed in this world.

Ordinary people don't know this situation and may act recklessly, but today's meeting in front of the palace was attended by officials from the Jiuli court. How could there be any riot?

"Father, let's raise troops immediately to avenge grandfather!" Jiang Heng roared immediately after learning the news.

The Jiang family still has military power over Tiandu. In addition to Tiandu's forbidden army, the Jiang family owns half of Tiandu's six armies, not to mention the five thousand dead soldiers brought by Tiandang Mountain. As long as they can control Tiandu's armies immediately , they still have hope.

"The crime of regicide, heaven will not stand on our side, no matter how many soldiers are used, what's the use? Heng'er, you immediately take our dead soldiers and withdraw from the capital of heaven!" Naturally, Jiang He can't follow his son recklessly. , the crime of regicide cannot be ended by Jiang Song's death. Killing the nine tribes is the basis.

What we should fight for now is not Tiandu, but Yunzhou. Although it is in chaos now, it is the foundation of the Jiang family after all. The prefects of each county are still their people. Although they may not be obedient, as long as they go back, they will still have a chance.

With Da Gan's current demeanor, if the Dao Alliance can help him behind the scenes, he may not be able to make a comeback.

At least, there is no problem in getting Yunzhou.

"What about the City Guards and the Royal Forest Army?" Jiang Heng said unwillingly.

"Don't worry about it, let's leave the city immediately!" Jiang He shook his head. The city guards and the Imperial Forest Army all obeyed the orders of the Tiger Talisman, but now this situation is a major crime of regicide. How could those people, including Lu Xuan and those who had just been recruited, join them? Even sixth-grade warriors cannot use it.

They recruited these people to seize power in a coup, and it was also because of this that these people joined the Jiang family. But now that the Jiang family is guilty of regicide, those sixth-grade warriors who did not defect on the spot can be regarded as nostalgic for their old friendship.

Without any unnecessary nonsense, Jiang He went out and rushed out of the city gate. Jiang Shu led four thousand dead soldiers and rushed out desperately, killing any pedestrians or troops who blocked them along the way without saying a word.

"Are you going to stop them?" The city guards had already received news from the palace that Jiang Song was plotting to kill the king, and that all armies were directly beheaded. Zhou Tong stood next to Lu Xuan and saw that Lu Xuan did not give the order. Somewhat puzzled.

"Killing now, the credit is not ours. Compared with this, another thing is more important. Zhou Tong, go and recruit the temporary commanders of the other three battalions, and say that I will invite them to discuss matters." Lu Xuan said with a smile.

"Yes!" Zhou Tong nodded in agreement, turned around and ran away.

General Jiang Heng sent people to take charge of the four battalions of the city guards. Each battalion was like the Qinglong Battalion. A sixth-grade martial artist served as Sima, and the other two served as deputy generals. Soon, the other nine were also recruited. After seeing Lu Xuan, Niu Ba asked: "Brother Lu, this matter..."

"As you heard, Jiang Song committed regicide." Lu Xuan nodded.

Niu Ba and other sixth-grade warriors are all loose men. Warriors are just like monks. As long as they are tainted with the luck of the court, it will be difficult to live long. But in the last battle in Falling Star Valley, many warriors also understood that with their ability, there is no big force behind them. Provided with skills and resources, it will be difficult to make breakthroughs.

Sixth-grade warriors are not monks, and their life span is only a few years longer than ordinary people. Only when they reach fifth-grade, the lifespan of a martial artist will greatly increase. From then on, many casual cultivators who felt that martial arts were hopeless began to think about joining the imperial court. As a result, the imperial court now has many sixth-grade warriors.

Of course, the most important thing was when Ji Huan held the jade seal in Falling Star Valley to accuse the various factions of the Taoist Alliance. Not to mention the sixth grade, the fifth grade was destroyed with a wave of his hand, which also greatly changed the perception of these people in the world towards the imperial court.

"Then what should we do!?" Everyone was a little panicked when they heard this. They originally wanted to come to the court to get a good background. They thought that following a first-class prime minister would have a bright future. Who knew that Jiang Song didn't know if he had been kicked by a donkey, so he went to kill the king. ! ?

"Listen to me, everyone, we came here to be officials. Now that Jiang Song has fallen, he is still a sixth-grade martial artist. The twelve of us together, with the city guards in hand, are in this court, It is also a force that cannot be ignored." Lu Xuan smiled.

"Will the court accept it?" Niu Ba asked uncertainly.

"This is the purpose of inviting you here. If you believe me, come under my command and I will negotiate with the people in the court." Lu Xuan looked at everyone and smiled and said, "How about it?"

Lu Xuan was usually not too far or too close to everyone, but he gave everyone the impression that he was very resourceful and had opinions when things happened. Although he was a little hesitant when he heard this, he seemed to have no better way to let them do it themselves. Let's talk... Niu Ba thought of Lu Boyan's impassioned speech in Falling Star Valley, but when it was his turn to speak, he made a mess and almost got beaten.

"Okay, Brother Lu, I'll listen to you. From now on, our brothers will follow Brother Lu's lead!" Niu Ba nodded.

"I am also willing to obey Brother Lu's orders!" Another martial artist said to Lu Xuan, cupping his fists.

"Among us, Brother Lu is the only one I am convinced of. I agree with Brother Lu coming to lead us brothers!"

Gu Hui looked at what everyone else had said, and after searching for a long time, she looked at Lu Xuan and said, "Um, the same thing!"

"I won't let you down." Lu Xuan stood up and said, "In this way, let's gather our troops and horses in one place first. We don't need to do anything else. In the next two days, we can just practice every day."

"Yes!" Everyone agreed and left. In the evening of the same day, the four battalions of the city guards gathered at Lu Xuan's place and were uniformly dispatched by Lu Xuan.

The four battalions of the city guards were different from those of the border army. There were 2,000 people in each battalion. Each battalion was equipped with a commander, five battalion commanders, and 25 warlords, plus the 800 people brought by the four men from the dead soldiers camp. The total number was eight thousand eight hundred.

Lu Xuan appointed Niu Ba, Zhou Tong and two others as Sima. The remaining seven did not let them serve as camp commanders. Instead, they set up a supervisory army and asked them to take charge of supervision with the eight hundred dead soldiers they brought. During the training, the sound of killing in Qinglong Camp was loud. Xie Yao and others had been cleaning up the remnants of the Jiang family for the past two days and did not care about it. Seeing Lu Xuan's actions, they understood what this boy meant and simply ignored it. It was not until three days later that everything was settled, and Xie Yao Send someone to invite you.

"Fifth-grade master, Mr. Xie really thinks highly of me." Lu Xuan came to Xie's house again and glanced at a man standing behind Xie Yao. The man was obviously a soldier, and he had an aura of arrogance all over his body. Fierce, as soon as Lu Xuan came in, he felt the pressure from this person, but he was calm and calm.

"You don't seem to be afraid?" Xie Yao looked at the unusually calm Lu Xuan with some curiosity.

"Is it useful?" Lu Xuan sat down with a golden sword: "All the fifth-grade masters have appeared. You either want to kill me or to intimidate me. No matter which one, it doesn't matter whether I am afraid or not."

"You are not afraid in the face of danger, you are a general!" The fifth-grade master glanced at Lu Xuan in surprise and said with some appreciation.

"Let me meet you. This is Xie Hao, General Zhaoyong, a third-grade general." Xie Yao nodded.

"I've seen the general!" Lu Xuan cupped his fists and saluted, "It seems that your Excellency is not here to kill me today."

"I admire General Lu very much. The general is now in charge of the city guard, but he has not caused any trouble in the past few days. I think the general has no intention of becoming my enemy." Xie Yao said with a smile.

"I'm waiting for you to fulfill your promise." Lu Xuan nodded and said: "I have integrated the four battalions of the City Guards for you, and we just need to be formally appointed by the court."

This general is different from the local officials. The local officials can directly receive the blessings of luck, while the imperial generals do not face the people directly, and the luck will not pass through them. Instead, the luck will flow to them from the court after they are canonized by the court. of.

"I like the general to be such a frank person." Xie Yao nodded, looked at Lu Xuan and said, "The general should understand my purpose of inviting the general here today."

"It's easy to talk about the rest, but after you pledge your allegiance to the Lord, you won't have any money, right?" Lu Xuan nodded and looked at Xie Yao seriously.

Xie Yao and Xie Hao couldn't help laughing when they heard this. Now that they have gained power, as long as they stand on their side, do they still need Xie Yao to give them the benefits personally?

Xie Hao waved his hand, and several guards came in carrying several boxes and then opened them.

"There are ten thousand taels of silver, thousands of spiritual stones, and ten martial arts techniques here. Although they are not fifth-grade, they are not bad." Xie Yao looked at Lu Xuan and said with a smile.

"Sir, do you have any thoughts about adopting an adopted son?" Lu Xuan stood up silently and looked at Xie Yao with burning eyes. He didn't know if he was using Lu Fengxian's trumpet and said this by accident.

"Ahem~" Xie Yao shook his head: "Ignore this for now, let's talk about your official position later. Don't stand, sit down."

"It's better to stand. You should be respectful to the adults." Lu Xuan shook his head and carefully put away the box containing the spiritual stones and exercises.

Xie Yao was a little dumbfounded: "Okay, the commander of the city guard camp is a fifth-grade general and the prefect of the same county. With your cultivation level, you are qualified for this position. However, this official appointment also requires merit. You have not yet achieved any merit." , even if it is sealed reluctantly, it will still be difficult to convince the public."

"Sir, if you have any questions, just tell me." Lu Xuan said with his fists clasped.

"Although Jiang Song died, his family members fled to Yunzhou. According to Jiang Song's guilt and regicide, the nine tribes will be executed." Xie Yao looked at Lu Xuandao.

"Sir, should these nine tribes be killed directly or should they be brought back and killed?" Lu Xuandao said.

"Just bring it back! This matter involves the court's reputation." Xie Yao shook his head.

"Keep these things. I will pick them up in the future after half a month!" Lu Xuan took out the box that had just been put into the treasure bag with some distress, put it on the table, cupped his fists and saluted, turned around and left!

"Interesting!" Xie Yao looked at Lu Xuan's back and couldn't help laughing.

"Brother, although this person has some abilities, he is greedy for money and has no mercy for the Jiang family. He is probably not a kind person!" Xie Hao frowned.

"It has only been a few days since he joined the Jiang family? Jiang Song committed regicide and deceived the emperor. Not to mention him, who was a disciple of the Jiang family in the past and now they are not estranged from each other? They are greedy for money. Such people are easier to control." Xie Yao looked at Xie Hao and said: " You, your martial arts talent is not inferior to that of Ah Xiong, but when it comes to being an official and knowing people, you are far behind him. What we want is someone who can do things for the Xie family, not a sage! Only those with deficient character can be used by me. , if he is truly a noble person, regardless of whether he is true or false, I would not dare to use him."

"Did the eldest brother specifically leave the Jiang family's credit to him?" Xie Hao said suddenly.

"This is a good sword!" Xie Yao nodded and said, "With him here, my Xie family can have more military power in Tiandu."

If Jiang Song falls, then the next step will be the distribution of interests among the three major families. At this time, it depends on who has more chips.
