Chapter 72 The Prestige of the King
When Murong Qiancheng thought of this, she didn't know why, but her heart suddenly jumped up again. While she was thinking about it, she felt someone pulling her clothes. Jiang Xueer was already saying in surprise.
"Hey! It's so strange, why is Longcheng so quiet today? I didn't even see a person on the street as I walked out!"
Qiancheng didn't notice this. She was not thinking about it just now when she left the city. When she thought about it, it seemed that it was true.
"Where have the people in Longcheng gone? Xue'er, did your father order them to avoid it today?"
"No! The father never did this. Moreover, Brother Jiang Mian would not...what is going on?"
Of course, they were not the only ones who had this question. After the large group of people walked out of Longcheng, the minister of the Shangdaozi Zhong also asked the Prime Minister Fei Yi in front of him. The other party looked at him meaningfully and replied indifferently.
"Did the doctor really didn't expect it? Or did you really not know?"
"Major, what does this mean?"
"Oh! I'm afraid that the doctor has been in the court for too long and is arrogant. I'm afraid I've never known what the people of the people are going to do?"
How could Zi Zhong not hear the irony in his words? His face changed slightly. As one of the representatives of the Zhao aristocratic class, he was a rich rich man. He was very powerful under his family. Especially in terms of economy, his influence on the political situation of Zhao State was extraordinary. Even King Zhao relied heavily on him. How could he be humiliated easily? What's more, he had many political differences with Fei Yi on weekdays. The conflict between the prime minister and the senior official has been around for a long time, which is not a secret. He immediately refuted.
"Where did the Prime Minister start? As a senior official, I assisted the king in managing the government affairs. I would ask about any small matters like a meal and a farming among the people in the market, for fear of losing it. How could I not understand what people want? Although the Prime Minister is higher than me, the words he said in such a tone are losing the identity of a minister. Are you questioning my ability to govern? "
When I heard him face him upright in a tit-for-tat way, the atmosphere around me became a little nervous. In the walking team, many people were quietly watching here. I didn’t understand what was the matter for just leaving Longcheng? It seemed like a sign of being choked! This is a bad omen.
"Since Doctor Shang knows the situation among the people so well, don't you know what the people in Longcheng are doing today are for? "
Fei Yi smiled coldly. Recently, some people in Longcheng were active frequently and could not escape his eyes. He was just afraid of disturbing King Zhao's quiet rest, so he couldn't bear it. However, just now he turned around and saw Zi Zhong, Wang Shuchu Daxing and others whispering behind him, not knowing what they were talking about in secret. He was angry and finally couldn't bear it.
"What did you say... the people of Longcheng have all left the city? How is this possible! Whose organization incited them to do this? Haven't you ever considered the dangerous consequences?!"
Before Zi Zhong could speak, someone had already questioned loudly with a surprised expression. Fei Yi didn't have to look at it, and he knew who the person jumped out.
"You don't need to ask too much! Be calm and stick to yourself. In this special period, just do your own thing well... Don't worry about the rest. Humph!"
Fei Yi snorted coldly, as a warning. Then he ignored them and went straight forward, following King Zhao's carriage.
"What does he mean? It's outrageous! The king is still alive, so he is so domineering to us. In the future...whether there is room for us to speak? Doctor Zizhong, no matter what, don't be afraid of him. With our support behind the scenes, you must fight for the power you should fight for!"
Looking at the back of the Prime Minister Fei Yi who was walking in front and riding with Chu Jiangmian, Chu Daxing felt his teeth feel a little itchy. He tried his best to encourage Zi Zhong, asking him not to be ruthless at critical moments and strive to get greater power from King Zhao.
The senior official Zizhong looked gloomy. He was not very interested in fighting for power and profit, but he could not withstand the strong demands of the nobles who supported him behind his back. He had to do some things even though he knew they were against his will.
"Don't worry! For the sake of Zhao's stability, I will naturally speak when it's time to speak."
Hearing him say this, Wang Shuchu Daxing and the few people behind him looked at each other and were secretly happy. As long as Zi Zhong has this attitude, it would be enough. At the critical moment, he will definitely play an unexpected role.
Fei Yi, who was disdainful of being with them, was full of thoughts, and no one told him about the depression in his heart. He turned his head and looked at the silent young man. He couldn't help but give a soft reminder.
"Prince Jiangmian, you should pay more attention recently. Longcheng and Jinxiang Palace may be a little uneasy!"
Although he couldn't say it too clearly before the possible thing happened, Fei Yi couldn't help but remind him. He really hoped that the prince, who had watched him grow up, could inherit the mantle of King Zhao and successfully take over the king's scepter. In the special period when enemies on all sides attacked, there would never be any chaos in Zhao. Otherwise, it would be a disaster, and destruction would only be in a flash!
"Thank you, Guoxiang, for your reminder! It's okay, just don't worry."
Chu Jiangmian nodded and said, everything was indifferent.
Two more hours later, King Zhao's team finally arrived at the Jiuxing Mountain Hunting Ground. When the king took a deep breath and endured the pain of his injuries all over his body and walked off the carriage, he saw countless loyal soldiers waiting for him under the banner of the Wai Lie, and the crowds that were like the wind swept across the earth.
Almost half of the people in Longcheng were dispatched. No one organized them. Before dawn, they came here together. They just came here to not disturb the king's itinerary, so as not to disturb the king's itinerary, and came here to wait silently.
King Chulie, who slowly walked to the high place surrounded by a large number of attendants and officials, saw clearly the situation all over the mountains, even though he was as hard as iron, he could not help but be moved.
There was no noisy sound in the big scene of tens of thousands of people. The dark clouds overwhelmed the heads, and the distance was desolate and solemn. The feelings of placing soldiers on the battlefield countless times before surged into my heart again. These were his subjects and soldiers, who were infinitely loyal to him and he lived up to their blood!
"Master! I finally saw you again! This is so great... Take care of me!"
A disabled and white-headed veteran standing not far away, when he opened his turbid eyes and finally saw the old figure of the king, he could no longer bear the intense emotions in his heart. His incomplete body bent between the grass and the sand, and his sad voice came from the heart.
Following closely behind, nearly a hundred veterans standing in this direction bowed down together, almost at the same time, shouting that shocked the world.
"King... take care of yourself!"
Once upon a time, they followed the great hero's saddle and horse, fought bravely to fight the enemy, and built the Great Wall with flesh and blood. The Hu people's scimitars damaged their bodies. The Hu people's iron arrows seized the lives of countless comrades in the army. But no one shed a tear. As long as a man picked up the knife and put on his armor, he would only have blood and no tears!
However, at this moment, their passion has turned into tears! It is just for a late hero. He is their spiritual support and idol. I thought he would live with the years and stay with the green mountains. But he has been staggering in the end and can no longer bear the dreams of those heroes.
Influenced by the tragic emotions of these old soldiers, the soldiers of the Dragon Cavalry who had already surged in their hearts jumped off their war horses, leaned on the ground with long swords, and shouted in unison.
"King! Ten thousand victories! The king has ten thousand victories... Ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories!"
The heroic voice was like a tsunami of mountains and seas, and it was endless. The birds in the forest were flew up in shock, soaring straight into the sky, hovering on the top of the mountain.
Those who came from Longcheng just to take a good look at King Zhao were even more excited and burst into tears. Whether it was a strong man or a woman or a child, they all fell to the ground and congratulated the king. There were crowds of people in the long grass, on the hillside, high and low. They did not make any bold words, but expressed their silent blessings in the most pious and silent way.
King and Chulie of Zhao have never liked such scenes. However, today, facing this scene, his eyes were wet. Ruthlessness may not be a true hero. The support from all the subjects in their hearts touched him. If it were the age of the past, he would have walked among them in person and looked down at the magnificent mountains and rivers of Zhao with everyone. But he no longer had such ability.
"Let everyone get up. Alas! I'm mobilizing all my troops for me alone, and I didn't deserve such a great courtesy!"
There was a faint sadness on King Zhao's face and he casually ordered. Someone around him had already conveyed loudly, and more than a hundred guards were in harmony. He rode his horse away and conveyed the king's orders everywhere.
"King, all the people of Longcheng came out in the city and came at night just to see the king's style on Jiuxingshan. They will feel relieved when they see your health."
The Prime Minister Fei Yi spoke comforting next to him. Today he took off his wide robe and slow belt and put on his armor again. As the person who has been following King Zhao for the longest time, he went to the prime minister to become the country's city. The king is still there, so he is still stronger and dare not fall behind.
"It's just a pity that we are all old! We don't have the ability to maintain a stable life for them. This task will be handed over to these young people from today!"
