Chapter 40 Nightmare of Historical conspiracy Film
Yin and Yang Qizi is a hermit who lives in the mountains all the year round. Had it not been for the Queen's accidental acquaintance with him when she was young, even the original royal family, he would have disdained to do astrological divination.
For the first time in years, the eldest princess replaced the queen to pray for the country where Qi Zi lived in seclusion. In order to reach his destination as soon as possible, du Yan only brought more than a hundred guards, disguised as merchants, and set out from the capital by light bus.
Although Cheng Yu is the proton of becoming a Kingdom, according to common sense, he is not allowed to step out of the original capital, but du Yan has always been an unreasonable bully and made it clear that Cheng Yu will serve with him.
Recently, the original king also wanted to appease the Wu family to avoid an accident when recalling the general, and with more than a hundred guards on the side, Cheng Guoproton alone could not cause any waves.
Now that five days have passed, we will arrive at our destination in about two more days.
Du Yan sat on the carriage and felt that the speed suddenly slowed down a lot, and there was a faint sound of gurgling water.
Thinking that he should have arrived at the planned place, he opened the partition on the side window and looked out.
The centurion was protecting the side of the carriage when he saw du Yan open the curtain and stooped slightly: "the eldest princess, this is not in the capital, please don't look around at will."
With that, without giving du Yan any face, he reached out and closed the side window of the carriage.
"where is the foolhardy man? stay until you go back, and I'll make you look good!"
The sound of angry rebuke came from inside the carriage, and the guards outside did not squint, which was used to the arrogance of the eldest princess.
In fact, in the carriage, du Yan's expression was calm and calm. He stooped slightly, picked up the note that the centurion had just thrown into the carriage and began to check.
"there are a total of 100 guards, more than a dozen of whom are under Yuan Chueh. At that time, his subordinates will try to move the guards around the carriage to make it easier for them to do so."
Prior to this, du Yan's eyes beside Yuan Chueh had passed on his Tonghui wife's plan, and they planned to do it here when they returned.
Yuan Chueh sent a subpoena to the local bandits, saying that a merchant would pass by in a few days, and all the merchants were carrying valuable goods. Relying solely on the rabble here, it is natural that there is nothing we can do about these elite generals.
All Yuan Chueh needed was the bandits to cause a riot, and then the people he had planted in the convoy would take the opportunity to startle the eldest princess's horse. The carriage was frightened, either fell into a deep stream, life or death was unknown, or fell out of the car was either dead or disabled.
No matter what the consequence was, Yuan-Chueh felt that she had breathed a bad breath, and the Wu family could only vent their anger with these mountain thieves if they wanted to investigate.
With Yuan Chueh's plan, couldn't come up with such a plan to borrow a knife. All this is the work of du Yan, and the eyes he buried were sent to Yuan Jue.
The matter of offering sacrifices to heaven and praying for blessings was related to national luck, and even fools like Yuan Chueh knew they could not make a mistake, so they arranged the starting time for the return trip.
The terrain here is narrow, with high cliffs on the left and deep streams on the right, which is the favorite ambush site for mountain thieves.
Du Yan was thinking when he heard the carriage door knocked softly.
He opened a gap and saw Cheng Yu, who was driving in front of him. He looked back and said, "Princess, do you find it boring?"
Du Yan glanced at him and said, "what do you think?" I was stuck in this narrow carriage for five days, unlike you to see the scenery on the road. "
Cheng Yu said in a low voice, "I was prepared. There was something under the hidden compartment of the seat."
The purpose of this trip is to worship heaven and earth and pray for the country of origin. naturally, it is necessary to maintain sincerity and put an end to pleasure. Therefore, with the baggage, except for the sacrifice to heaven and the necessary food and clothing, there is nothing long.
Du Yan is also the princess, for the sake of safety, except when setting up camp, he can't ride on horseback. Even if du Yan is not a restless temper, he still feels suffocated.
He closed the door, reached out and felt it secretly under the seat, and found a small wooden box with exquisite carvings inside. When he opened it, there were some preserved fruit and some books inside.
Looking at the books that passed the time in his hand, du Yan suddenly became a little melancholy. He had been with Cheng Yue for such a long time, and the other person was very pleased with him.
Yu Chengyu will be parted now, and it may be the enemy to meet again in the future. Du Yan thinks that he may still be a little unaccustomed to it.
It's just that Cheng Yu is an emperor who wants to rule the world, so how can he always be a slave? Maybe in the future, when he thinks of this experience, he wants to stab himself to death.
Du Yan picked up the preserved fruit and put it into his mouth, sighing in his heart, "it's not easy to have a meal."
A few days later, the party arrived at the place where Qi Zi lived in seclusion.
All the guards brought by the eldest princess were stationed outside the valley, and only the eldest princess was allowed to enter.
Du Yan slowly walked out of the tent after burning incense and bathing in the camp and changing into the most grand dress.
The eldest princess is always active and doesn't like accessories, and her clothes are always simple and light. This is the first time Cheng Yu has seen him make such a grand costume.
Solemn black robe, red rolling edge, on which there are red silk thread embroidered with the dark pattern of birds to the Phoenix, but a black hair is just pulled up with a hairpin at will.
Apart from the hairpin and the miscellaneous dress around the waist, there is nothing of gold and silver. Qi Zi is an unworldly person who enters his residence and cannot wear common things such as gold and silver.
Cheng Yu looked at his back and suddenly felt an illusion that the person in front of him was going to an unknown place and would never return.
The sense of panic that the other party was about to get out of control made him step forward and stop du Yan in front of him.
Du Yan was not used to this grand imperial dress, layer after layer, which made his shoulder ache and his pace a little bit unable to move.
He was concentrating on the condition under his feet so as not to stumble over the skirt or debris on the road, and suddenly he was shrouded in shadows.
Du Yan looked up and Cheng Yu stood in front of him, looking unfathomable and looking intently over.
He thought the other party had something to say, but he waited for a moment, but he saw that Cheng Yu just stared at him without saying a word.
Du Yan frowned slightly: "Cheng Yu, how are you staying?"
Cheng Yu seemed to have just regained consciousness and said, "Princess, be careful on the road."
"wordy." Du Yan glanced at him and moved on.
Du Yan walked all the way into the valley and soon became clear. In the valley, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, and the stream is gurgling like a place out of the way.
Above the central clearing, there is a high stone altar. Beside the stream is a simple bamboo house, in which the sound of the piano curls out.
Du Yan stood quietly outside the bamboo house, without making a sound, but quietly listened to the sound of the piano.
A moment later, when the song was over, an old voice came from the bamboo house.
"but Prince Yan?"
"Yes." Du Yan made a salute.
The door of the bamboo house opened with a squeak, and a gray-robed old man came out of it.
With a little preparation, the two men boarded the stargazing platform and began a long ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven. When the night was getting deeper and the stars were in the sky, the ceremony came to an end.
Du Yan's shoulders were sore under the weight of her heavy dress, and she sighed that the queen was a tiger girl and had practiced martial arts when she was not married. Otherwise, after the long ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, I am afraid that I will be ill for a few days.
Tonight is the night of the new moon. The moon is dark and the stars are shining. It is the best night for stargazing.
The old man knelt on the altar and looked up with a bone carving knife in his hand.
"the emperor star is getting brighter and has reached the middle of the sky, and the world will come together."
The queen and Qi Zi, both think that the emperor is du Yan, forced by the suspicion of the original king, can only show people in the body of a woman, it is dark and unclear. Now is the time to act, restore the status of the prince of the original country, will have the sign of the emperor star gradually.
Du Yan knows that this Emperor Star refers to becoming a Kingdom Proton Cheng Yu, who was previously obscure precisely because of his quality in his country of origin and was wasted. Now it is becoming clear that we are about to return to the throne of Chengkuo and begin the journey of unifying the world.
A few days ago, however, the old man made a new discovery that there was a sudden companion star next to the emperor star, which was shining enough to compete with the emperor star. "
Du Yan said, "does this companion star assist the emperor star or compete with the emperor star for the star of the world?"
The tortoise shell used for divination has been baked for a long time and is covered with cracks. Qi Zi picked up the tortoise shell and looked at it carefully for a long time before he opened his mouth and said, "the two stars compete for glory, and the situation in the world is unknown." I hope when the prince returns to the capital, he should pay attention to this matter. "
With that, he raised his hand and engraved the words of divination on the tortoise shell with a carving knife and handed it to du Yan.
This piece of tortoise shell will not be seen by the original king. Before leaving, du Yan had already prepared forged tortoise shells to deal with the original king.
He said goodbye to Qi Zi and went straight back along the original road.
Early the next morning, du Yan left with a party and returned to the capital.
Two days later, the team reached the dangerous road on the hillside, and du Yan casually flipped through his books, waiting for the appearance of the mountain thief.
In the middle of the journey, the carriage stopped.
Du Yan opened the door and called, "what's the matter?"
The centurion hit the horse and replied, "the road ahead is blocked by fallen trees. Please wait a moment."
When their eyes met, du Yan nodded slightly and signaled the centurion to act according to the plan.
"go and have a look, and don't delay your trip."
"No." The centurion gave his hand and went away as promised.
Du Yan thought for a moment and then asked, "Chengyu, I'm a little uneasy. Don't leave the carriage."
Cheng Yue promised, now the situation is unknown, he did not intend to leave the princess half a step.
Just a moment after the centurion left, rocks rolled down from one side of the cliff.
The escorts of the eldest princess are all experienced people, and they also know that the terrain here is dangerous and does not walk close to the cliffs. Therefore, the falling stone only scattered the neat team and did not cause much loss.
Those who lie in ambush only use falling stones to create momentum. Their aim is to rob the property. If the falling stone destroys the property, it will be in vain.
So just after a wave of falling rocks, a figure appeared on the top of the mountain and rushed down shouting and killing.
According to the information received by the mountain thieves, this is just an ordinary caravan, even with some guards, not too much. These mountain thieves thought that after this wave of falling rock threats, the caravan would obediently hand over their property.
It never occurred to me that those who dressed up as ordinary caravans drew out their weapons and quickly adjusted their formation and got ready for the battle.
It's just that the matter has come to this, and the mountain thieves have no choice but to fight it out.
Of course, such a rabble is no match for trained soldiers, but in a moment most of them have been subdued, and only a few are left to fight it out.
Just as the war ceased, Liuya flew out in the scuffle, and it happened to be the horse pulling the princess's rickshaw in the middle of the melee.
The arrow did not go away quickly, and the horse was not seriously hurt, but was frightened. With a long hiss, the horse galloped down the road out of control.
