She Is Not a Witch
Vol 4 Chapter 25: solitary inflammation
"Sis Li, please be careful with your words."
Among the three remaining people present, one of them stood with his hands behind his back in a light blue embroidered dress, slowly raised his head and spoke.
This minister with an unchanging face is the official Chunguan of the current dynasty, that is, an important official in charge of the dynasty's ceremonies and ceremonies, and even the dragon's veins.
Compared with other officials, he understands and understands the importance of the red phoenix better, and the impact of the current disaster of the dragon's veins. There is only a trace of pity in the eyes of this minister for the colleagues in front of them.
"I don't want to argue with Li Fusi and His Royal Highness Zhaolong about the succession to the Great Reign. These are just trivial matters." He flicked his sleeves lightly and stepped forward step by step, causing these people on the high platform to be puzzled. But when he came to him, he found that the target of this person was not them at all, but the huge and magnificent phoenix painting on the wall inside the hall.
The phoenix carved thousands of years ago has not faded even today. Every feather on the phoenix's body is so delicate. The patterns and shapes in it are like flames, fluttering like flames, gorgeous and elegant. There is an ancient atmosphere.
In the painting, the phoenix bird spreads its wings and floats in the air, while the mountains and the earth are below. There are people wearing various clothes among them. They walk up the mountain path step by step, and five different temples are dotted among the mountains.
People worship in this temple, and the phoenix will selectively respond to the prayers below.
This is the scene depicting the phoenix witch who once lived on the mountain of the Yellow Sea, and it is also the origin of the legend about the phoenix in the Eastern Continent.
When he came to this withered picture, the spring officer slowly bowed his body to salute, and after a long time, he slowly raised his body.
"This dynasty rose because of the phoenix, and it will also fall because of the fall of the phoenix. Now everything is determined, you and I are just waving our tails in vain." He sighed slowly.
"As the head of the Spring Official, I should have fulfilled the fate above and united the people, but now that my fate has been lost, I should also be punished."
After finishing speaking, he slowly took off the crown of golden birds and flowers on his head, placed it on the ground beside him, then slowly knelt down again, kowtowed in front of the phoenix totem, then knelt and stood on the ground, no longer get up.
"Master Wu, why are you here?"
Someone on the side saw that the official Chun had a death intention, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
Although it wasn't him, everyone present felt depressed and a little uncomfortable when they saw the official Chun who was about to commit suicide.
"Hmph." Regarding this, Li Jingfang could only wave his sleeves angrily.
This official Chun is ready to commit suicide, what else can he do, should he kill the other party now, I am afraid it will only make people feel chilling, and now it is unstable.
Regarding this, he could only say, "Since Mr. Wu has given up his duties as the head of the Spring Official, then we have no choice but to find someone else to take on this great responsibility."
Next, this man's gaze turned to the remaining two people in the hall, one of whom was Beihai Fusi, and the other was Chique Dragon General. Looking at these two people, Li Jingfang also frowned a little, feeling troublesome for a while. .
In fact, none of the ministers present was of simple status, and he just took advantage of the general situation to gather these people together for the time being.
At this time, the Beihai Fusi who was dressed in a white-scaled dragon stepped forward.
"I understand Master Li's intentions, but since I am the Secretary of the Beihai Prefecture, I have to think about the people under my rule."
Beihai Mansion is far to the north of the mountains, close to the Ice Sea, facing the mainland where the ice elves live, and travels to and from the dynasty's interior generally do not go by land, but mostly by boat along the coast.
"Now that the red phoenix has died, the disaster of the dragon's veins is imminent, and the six continents under Beihai Mansion are far away from the center, so I may be too busy to take care of myself. Please forgive me."
"But please rest assured that today's matter, regardless of success or failure, I will not tell others, but I can make an oath of death."
"Now, please take your leave first, return to your rule, and evacuate the people."
After finishing speaking, this man raised his body, turned his back, and walked towards the outside of the hall step by step.
Seeing that the minister wanted to leave, Li Jingfang frowned and raised his hand. Seeing this, Prince Zhaolong also nodded slowly, signaling to the few Shuolong guards staying in the hall.
Regarding this, these Shuolong imperial guards looked at each other, but still took a step forward, ready to stop the Beihai Fusi.
However, the originally silent Red Sparrow Dragon General moved, he took a step ahead, blocked the path of these Shuolong guards, and stared at them.
"You don't have the shame to listen to the orders of the thieves and not follow the edicts of Fenghuo!"
This loud shout made the guards have to stop, many of them bowed their heads in remorse, and even a few couldn't bear it anymore, committed suicide on the spot, and slowly fell to the ground.
They are loyal soldiers who belong directly to the emperor. Since the emperor wants to end the dynasty, they should obey his orders.
"You thief general, don't talk nonsense here!" Seeing the red sparrow dragon general shouting, Li Jingfang was also very anxious.
"Heh, Li Xiao'er is just crying over there holding the still-smelly Prince Zhaolong. I am a general, and I only obey the emperor's order, and I don't listen to this dog barking."
After finishing speaking, the Scarlet Sparrow Dragon General turned around, strode forward, and broke open the gate of the Shenlong Palace with one foot, and the bright light immediately shone into the dull room, and the air was also renewed.
"Master Si Ji." Seeing that the Scarlet Sparrow Dragon was about to leave, Li Jingfang had no choice but to look at the General of the Dragon Army beside him, hoping that he would stop him.
No, the general just shook his head and didn't move.
"Let him go, he can't be stopped." As a great general, he naturally knew the strength of the man in front of him. If he really wanted to fight, the whole world would probably be shaken, and he didn't know how many people present would be implicated.
"You!" Li Jingfang was anxious and helpless, and wanted to curse severely, but he couldn't. After all, many matters in the future still needed to rely on the military power in the hands of this great general.
After a while, another soldier ran into the hall to report.
"Report to the general, the general took the princess away."
"How dare he!" Li Jingfang hurried back and forth at this moment.
"Master Li, why panic, even if the princess leaves, nothing can be changed, the Phoenix Fire Edict is still in our hands." With such a reminder, Li Jing just calmed down a little.
That's right, the world is changing a lot now, and all kinds of rumors are spreading everywhere. No matter how extravagant the princess said, it is just one of them. There is no convincing evidence, and it is all lies.
"I lost my composure." At this moment, he calmed down again, turned his head, and faced Prince Zhaolong.
"Your Majesty, please give me an order. It is urgent now."
…
Not long after, a group of people surrounded the emperor's jade bed and slowly walked out of the main hall, followed by the Huagai Palace, and they walked straight down the mountain to Luojing.
Now, the most important first step is to occupy the title of righteousness and embrace Prince Zhaolong as the throne first.
——
On Longya Mountain in the north of Luojing, knights riding red-scaled giant dragons were ready to go. Then, a giant dragon headed by jumped off the dragon cliff and flapped its wings on the floating clouds. Afterwards, hundreds of red sparrow dragon riders who control the giant dragon flew towards the red sunset sky, until they became tiny black spots, which could no longer be seen.
The wind was whistling, and the wide and crimson scarf fluttered, making loud noises, brushing past the injured princess who was hugging her in front of her from time to time.
After a long time, the princess regained some color and woke up again.
"This is me, where is it?" She opened her eyes and looked at the general in golden scale armor above her head.
"I'm leaving Luojing with the Princess, heading for Beifu Mountain."
Beifu Mountain is one of the nine giant cities in the dynasty. It is located in the wilderness in the north of the dynasty. It is a rare fertile land of water and grass on the grassland. Beifu Mountain, the Eleven Continents outside the Great Wall, is mostly a gathering place for foreign races, and now it is also under the rule of the dynasty. It's just that the Eleven Continents outside the Great Wall are not like the Central Plains, with a large population, safe and stable, many places are still occupied by monsters, dragons and beasts, and the environment is dangerous.
Out of precautions against alien races and monsters, Beifu Mountain has more than 300,000 troops stationed all year round. It is the most powerful military town in the dynasty. The generals of all dynasties were ordered by the emperor and extremely loyal.
"Go to Beifu Mountain?" Xiao Yubing subconsciously felt a little strange. Of course, she hoped to go to the east and meet her father, King Huainan.
"Yes, we need to convey the Emperor's Phoenix Fire Edict to Beifu Mountain."
"But..." Xiao Yubing couldn't react for a while, but quickly closed his mouth again.
Yes, if you go to find your father at this time, I'm afraid it will be the same result. Father and King Dai have been fighting for many years. It is impossible to give up everything because of the edict of the emperor. They will definitely ignore or even tamper with the edict in order to allow themselves to ascend the throne. .
What should I do, obey the emperor's grandfather's will, or vote for my biological father, even violating the imperial edict.
Fortunately, she doesn't need to make a choice now, since these red sparrow dragonriders brought themselves out of Luojing, it must be for her to prove the truth of Fenghuo's edict.
But since I have lost the imperial edict, how can I persuade those border generals, and even if I persuade, what's the use of telling them to disband in place? I'm afraid this will only make people more sad.
At this point, Xiao Yubing closed his eyes again in the cold wind, helplessly.
Compared with this princess who was in a state of confusion, the red sparrow dragonriders who carried her to fly over the sea of clouds did not have any hesitation or confusion, only the pride and open-mindedness to carry out their mission.
"After so many years, I'm afraid I will never be able to return to Luojing again." The Scarlet Sparrow Dragon General felt in the wind.
The dynasty will finally come to an end, but these people riding on the dragon are not sad, but sing the ancient poem Yao.
"The solitary fire feather is in the south of the gangster. Why do you give it to the son of the other Shu?"
"The solitary chituo, in the capital of Luo. Why should I give it to you, the son of the other Shu?"
"The solitary Yanjing is in the city of Mo. Why do you tell me, my son?"
…
(孤 (jié) 童: the way the flag is held high, the son of the other Shu: the loyal sage and general)
In the distant past, the warriors of the Four Kingdoms inherited by Chifeng walked on the avenue with a thousand chariots and flaming red flags fluttering high.
The fiery red tassels and silk tassels, the flag with the red feathers are connected on the ground, and the vast and mighty soldiers who cross states and counties are singing this ancient ballad, step by step to open up the mountains and fields, Defeating the alien races entrenched in various places one by one, sweeping away the blood sacrifices everywhere, and finally unified the world.
Now, even though the dynasty has come to an end, the heroism in the ballad remains undiminished, instead, there is a kind of open-mindedness and calmness.
There is no permanent banquet in the world, and there is no permanent dynasty. One day, everything will die for it, so let's sing for it with this song.
———
In Luojing City, there is awe, the city gates are closed, the streets are full of patrolling red-scaled halberd guards and according to the dragon army, in the sky, one after another fiery red lights are slowly floating along the night wind, the horned dragon's wandering dragon Chariots patrolled back and forth.
Everyone has noticed the drastic changes in Luo Jingzhong, but now very few people really know the current situation of the dynasty center.
Inside Xiangyun Hall.
Under the stone pillars carved with white jade, sergeants in silver-scale armor stood guard with their shields, fighting against the dragon and gold armored army that rushed in. The inside and outside of the hall were filled with corpses. .
However, it would be futile for these maids and servants to howl and escape. Now the gate of the imperial palace has been strictly sealed, and there are also dragon riders parading in the sky in chariots riding horned dragons to prevent anyone from escaping.
"Your Majesty Queen Zhaoyue, in fact, you already know the truth, the cause of the day before yesterday, and the fruit of today."
Li Jingfang and several generals stood at the entrance of the main hall, looking at the queen who was being protected by the guards. Compared with the aging and dying emperor, although this queen is also old, she still maintains the clarity and calmness of the past. He didn't scream and lose his composure like the princesses and maids beside him.
Hearing these ministers' words, the queen didn't know the reason for their sudden rebellion. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly opened her eyes, looking at the ministers and generals behind the battlefield.
"Did he finally think about it... All these years, I thought he would never turn back until he died."
"It's okay now..." There seemed to be many emotions in the queen's eyes, but in the end it only turned into a sigh.
"Get out of the way."
"But, Your Majesty!" The palace guard in front of the queen was very surprised.
"I know they are here to kill me~www.readwn.com~ I also know the consequences of letting you get out of the way."
"As they say, the cause of yesterday, the result of today, everything is fixed." The queen shook her head, and then walked forward slowly.
The scene of killing in the hall slowly stopped. Everyone watched the silver-haired Queen walk towards the enemy line step by step, while the ministers on the opposite side also looked silent.
Although the queen had confessed her guilt, everyone present did not want to be named as the queen murderer. Not long after, a cup of poisoned wine and a foot of white silk were placed in front of the queen.
Picking up the green poisonous wine, the empress once again bowed to the gradually purple sunset sky outside the hall, then drank it down in one gulp, and slowly knelt down on the ground.
Afterwards, a mouthful of black and purple poisonous blood was vomited out, soaking the phoenix costume with red feathers and gold embroidery, and this highly respected and once deeply respected queen also passed away here.
Inside and outside the hall, a group of officers and ministers bowed to salute him, then covered his body with a white curtain and lifted it up slowly.
Elegies are everywhere, and the world is plain.
