1.1 Sword in the Palace
Chapter 1, the difficulty of heaven, no constitutional 1
1.1 Sword in the palace
With a "hu" sound, the candle 2 light flashed, and the people in the hall only saw a sword light, which was like lightning on a rainy day, fast
Compreh, the sword is still held high, and the cold sword light has reflected the faces of the two people.
This is on the side hall of the imperial palace in Linzi, the capital of the State of Qi, at the end of 481 BC.
In addition to the two people fighting in the hall, there are also three people in the palace, Qi Jiangong 3, Zuo Xiang Kan Zhi 4 and right Xiang Tian Heng 5, Qi Jian
Behind the public stood eleven palace guards. Everyone looked solemn and watched His Highness's two sword test
technique.
The two people are eight feet tall, much taller than ordinary people. They are thick and burly, with dark faces and faces
The hard short beard and the bronze sword in his hand flashed. This is Qi Jiangong's bodyguard Pingqi. The other person is quite thin, with Pingqi
In contrast, like a mouse standing in front of a cat, he pressed the hilt of the sword on his left waist with his right hand and dodged left and right in the flat sword light, but
did not draw out the sword. This is Tian Heng's minister.
Tian Heng looked at the two of them and said, "This Pingqi's swordsmanship is skillful, which seems to be the swordsmanship of Dongmen."
Kan Zhi nodded and said, "The right eye is worthy of being the third swordsman of the State of Qi."
Tian Heng smiled and said, "In the hands of the three swords of the State of Qi, the original phase ranks third, the left phase ranks second, and still ranks above the original phase. Left phase
Is it ironic to praise the original appearance so much?
Kan Zhi shook his head with a smile and said, "I dare not."
The sword at that time was the most common portable weapon. Kings, doctors and scholars all wear swords, which are not only for protecting the body, but also for the body
The symbol ofto distinguish it from common people. At this time, although the iron is already there, it is very rare. People's swords are generally green
made of copper, it is only because the bronze is hard and brittle, so the sword is only two feet long, and the ridge is thick and the blade is wide. If it is longer, it is easy to break. Hold it in your hand
It is a bronze sword.
Ping Qi raised his sword and did not split it. He asked the committee, "Why don't you draw your sword?" The n committee pressed the hilt of the sword and shook his head.
Ping Qi saw that the other party did not draw the sword, so he had not used all his strength. At this time, he was secretly angry, and the sword was increased, and the sword was waving, and the sword light
Straight up and down, he split down to the culprit, as if the sword body suddenly increased by more than a foot, which was really as powerful as a rainbow and extremely fierce.
Originally, the sword is light, and in swordsmanship, there are few such straight tricks, but when Pingqi's move comes out, the sword
In his hand, it was like a sharp knife and a huge axe, and even Kan Zhi and Tian Heng, two swordsmanship masters, secretly ate one
Surprise. But the commission is like a mountain, motionless.
Ping Qi seems to be bold, but in fact, he is meticulous and has rich experience in skills. He saw that the committee has always refused to draw his sword, no
Knowing the details of this commission is to use this sword to cut straight. It seems to be fierce, but in fact, it is still testing the swordsmanship of the commission. Who knows that the commission seems to be
He saw through that his sword was a false move, and it seemed to be deliberately big, but he didn't move.
Ping Qixin said, "My Dongmen's swordsmanship is virtual and real, and the change is unpredictable. It can be changed into virtual, and it can be turned into reality. How dare you do this
Toda!" The condensation on the wrist destroys the sword and turns it into reality. With a "bang", the shadow of the sword overlaps, like a piece of mountain, but it splits
, this sword is sent with all its strength. Everyone was shocked to see that his sword was destroyed ten times faster than before.
Tian Hengxin said, "This guy turned it into reality, and the sword power is so amazing!" He knew the swordsmanship of the commission and looked at Pingqi
The sword, known as Pingqi's swordsmanship, is far above the emb� committee, secretly worried about the qiu committee.
The sword force that was waiting for Pingqi was old. With a smile, he fell to the ground sideways along the sword momentum and drew his sword.
Everyone gave a "h" sound, but the committee fell to the ground to avoid the sword with clumsiness.
At this time, the countries are in dispute, and the world's martial arts style is extremely strong. Every grand ceremony, or after a banquet, it is common for swordsmen to compete in martial arts. zhong
People have seen more than martial arts. They have never seen anyone jump to the ground and turn defense into an attack. Ordinary masters don't disdain this.
Pingqi's sword failed, and he was also surprised. He was a little depressed, but he saw the commission fall down and pulled out his sword and said to himself, "My sword
The momentum has been destroyed. At this moment, you draw your sword, push and pull, and then draw your sword to me. Even if I change your moves, you are not as fast as my sword.
With a scold, the sword turned diagonally and split it into the commissar.
But when he saw the waving of his hand, a sword light jumped out and circled in front of Pingqi. Ping Qi was shocked, but he didn't see it
When the commission drew its sword, it waved its sword and hurriedly retreated. It only heard a "sneer", and the red shadow flashed and hummed flatly.
Exited seven or eight steps.
The qiu committee smiled again, jumped up and said, "cheng concession,cheng concession!"
Everyone looked at Pingqi and saw that his leather armor had been cut open, and a red blood stain stained half of his body. It turned out to be
After a sword, he was bleeding for a moment and knew that he was seriously injured.
Ping Qi snorted and said, "What's wrong with your scabbard?"
The qiuwei raised the scabbard with a smile and said, "You're wrong. I'm not a scabbard, and there's nothing strange about it. It's just a sword
It's just a clip.
It turned out that his scabbard actually opened on one side. He didn't need to draw his sword at all, and he could get out of the scabbard with a wave of his hand. It suddenly opened my mind,
In fact, the swordsmanship of the qiu committee may not be faster than him. When his first move came out, he fell to the ground and made a move. Ping Qi thought he had to draw his sword first.
Then he made a move and slowed down his second sword. Who knows that the commiss committee does not need to draw a sword at all, but makes a move directly, and Pingqi becomes the second move again,
Of course, it will be slower than the commission.
When Tian Heng saw his victory, he smiled and said, "The sword clip of the commission has been hidden from many people, and even the original appearance is hidden in the dark. Ha
Ha! In fact, if it is in terms of swordsmanship alone, the commission is far worse than this Pingqi.
Kan Zhi looked very ugly and said, "I didn't expect that the corps had this hand. It's really awesome. Even if it's the end of the scene, I don't know
I'm afraid it's difficult to resist.
The committee laughed and said, "The little man's swordsmanship is inferior and does not enter the eyes of high skills. Although he is lucky to win, he actually relies on this sword clip,
This brother Ping was surprised and was injured and defeated. Insert the sword back into the sword clip, return to the temple, and stand behind Tian Heng with his face full
With a smile, he does not hide his complacency.
Qi Jiangong and Kan Zhi felt bored, and the eleven bodyguards behind him also felt shameless. This Pingqi is the sword of the twelve guards
The technique is the best. Unexpectedly, when he went to the field, he was injured and defeated and made a disgraced face. Immediately another bodyguard came out, wanting to be with
The First Battle of the Commission.
Ping Qi shook his hand at the bodyguard, holding a sword in one hand, pressing the wound under the ribs with the other hand, and shouted, "This little man's injury
If there is nothing, there is still a battle. Please come to the end of this brother. Let's have another fight.
The people in the hall saw that he was bleeding under his ribs, and almost half of his body was dyed red. Unexpectedly, they still had to fight and secretly admired him.
Tian Hengxin said, "This Pingqi is a man!" He shook his hand and said, "The commission relies on this sword clip to win. Now everyone knows
, if you want to compare again, the committee will definitely lose, and there is no need to compare again.
Qi Jiangong sighed and said, "Pingqi, go down and recover!" Although you were defeated, you let me see Mr.
's exquisite swordsmanship, reward hardware, come, also reward Mr. Yamui.
This gold is one radium, each of which is 20 taels, and the hardware is one hundred taels.
Ping Qi saw that Qi Jiangong not only did not blame him, but also rewarded him. He was very grateful, knocked on his head and strode down to the hall
Go. Everyone was stunned to see that he was seriously injured and still walked vigorously.
Kan Zhi smiled and felt a chill in his heart: "The king usually looks submissive. On the surface, he is confused and cowardly, but in fact
Big wrist. If he does this, Pingqi will be willing to give him a life in the future. These twelve bodyguards, I'm afraid
It makes you more loyal.
The three people had their own thoughts and didn't say anything. For a moment, the hall became quiet.
Tian Heng turned his head and said to the commission, "You can also go down."
The Yav Committee saluted Qi Jiangong, Tian Heng and Kan Zhi and went to the hall. Tian Heng took a look at Qi Jiangong, Qi Jian's intention,
The eleventh bodyguard behind him also went down to the hall and ordered, "Let's send someone out of the palace quickly and invite Dr. Hua to the palace to heal his wounds."
After everyone left, only Qi Jiangong, Tian Heng and Kan Zhi were left in the hall.
Tian Heng looked at the back of these guards and said, "These guards' eyes are tight. Could it be that Zuo Xiangxin recently invited from the director of the National Council
Come on?"
Kan Zhi said, "Why did the right prime minister say this?"
Tian Heng said, "I enter the palace every day, and I still have some impression of the guards in the palace of the monarch, but these twelve people have never seen them. you
It is the Pingqi, and his swordsmanship is very good. Such a character must be known in the palace for three days. When I heard that Zuo Xiang was a teenager, I used to
I learned swords on behalf of Dongmen and had a lot to do with Dongmen, and this Pingqi was inspired by Dongmen's swordsmanship, so he guessed that it was the left prime minister
Invited by the country. Pingqi is a member of Dongmen, and most of the eleven people are also.
Kan Zhi said, "The right prime minister really has good eyesight. These twelve people are indeed people in Dongmen. They practice the skills of the imperial school, and Ping Qiben is the imperial
Faction master."
Tian Heng said, "What Pingqi used today is the swordsmanship of Dongmen's thorns. I heard that Dongmen is divided into the imperial school, Eryi
Jingwei is clear. The royal faction is called the imperial man, and the assassin is good at guarding. The assassin is called the assassin. There are very few people who also learn the two schools of imperial assassins.
Kan Zhi was shocked and said, "Surprisingly, the right knows so much about Dongmen's swordsmanship! Ping Qi was originally a royal faction, and his few stabbing swords
is a skill, but he has nothing to do these two days and taught him a few tricks. Because he didn't learn it for a long time, he couldn't be proficient, and today he was defeated by the commission.
is also for this reason. Today, if he uses the imperial swordsmanship that he is usually good at, he will never lose to the commission.
Tian Heng smiled and suddenly asked, "It turned out that I only knew that Zuo Xiang had studied swords in Dongmen, but at this time, I knew that Zuo Xiang was a Dongmen thorn
The master of. Since these twelve bodyguards are the royals of Dongmen, I don't know how many assassins have invited to Linzi?
Kan Zhi was shocked and said quickly, "I invited the twelve royals to come to enrich the palace and protect the monarch. There is no reason to invite Dongmen
What is the assassin doing here?"
Tian Heng looked at Kan Zhi, smiled and said, "The committee brought by Shicai, his greatest ability is not swordsmanship.
is the art of detection and exploration, and I have always appointed him to help my brother Tian reverse maintain the public security of Linzi City. How many did the committee meet in the city today
People, recognized as the assassins of Dongmen's thorns. Dongmen's assassin came to Linzi and must have some plans.
Qi Jiangong and Kan Zhi were shocked. Qi Jiangong's face changed greatly and said, "This..., these..." Tian Heng smiled and said, "Country
Don't worry. In my opinion, these people must not come to assassinate the king, but mostly for my Tian brothers.
Qi Jian said publicly: "Since the right prime minister has detectiveed these people, there is naturally a way to deal with it. What else is there to worry about? gua
People are very relieved about the ability of the right prime minister.
Tian Heng said again: "These assassins alone have given people a headache, but there is a message that this evening, the left prime minister
I met Zilu 7 of the State of Lu in the suburbs. They were both disciples of Confucius. I don't know how the two would fight.
I unfortunately died under the sword of Zilu.
Kan Zhi was shocked: "What?"
Tian Heng sighed, "Speaking of which, I don't believe it very much. How can Zilu come to the State of Qi for no reason? The second is the road
Although he is known as the first swordsman of the State of Lu, I am also the fourth swordsman of the State of Qi, and Zilu are both disciples of Confucius.
Even if you can't defeat Zilu, how can you escape? How can you die under the sword of Zilu? It's ordered people to check it, now
Zilu can no longer be found, but my body has been found, and Shicai has ordered someone to be sent to Zuo Xiang's house.
Qi Jiangong and Kan Zhi were shocked.
Qi Jian's father-in-law was fine, but Kan Zhi was shocked, just because he trusted his ministers and me very much, in order to avoid Tian's taboos and private care
's 3,000 dead men have been secretly dispatched by me, and I don't even know the details. You should know that the three thousand dead are all lawless
the outlaws. It took me a year and a half to command as smoothly as my arms and fingers. If it's a new school
If people go to command, I'm afraid it will be difficult to dispatch them for a while. What's more, I went out of the city secretly today to arrange for these dead men to work
A big event, now he died outside the city, and even Kan Zhi doesn't know where the 3,000 dead men are hiding.
Originally, I followed him to Dongmen to learn swordsman in his early years. His swordsmanship was very high, and he was not much worse than Kan Zhi and Tian Heng. Among the people,
Except for Tian Heng, Kan Zhi and the first swordsmanship master in the State of Qi, I'm afraid no one can beat him. If it's not a child road, what else
Can someone kill him? However, as one of the four disciples of Confucius 8, how could he come to the State of Qi without the consent of Confucius?
"Confucius is a contemporary sage. Why did he send Zilu to kill people for no reason?" Kan Zhi was shocked and uncertain, and Qi Jian said angrily:
"What a bold road! Has the right prime minister ever sent someone to arrest him? Although he was angry, he didn't know that all three thousand dead people outside the city were killed
It's tied to me, so it's not very tight.
Tian Heng smiled bitterly and said, "How easy is it to catch the road? In fact, Zilu is fine. Now there is one outside Linzi City
It's ten times harder to provoke people than Zilu, which is what he is most worried about.
Qi Jiangong asked, "Who else is ten times more difficult to provoke than Zilu?"
Tian Heng's eyes were like electricity. He swept over the two people's faces and said slowly, "The thief Liu Xiajiao 9."
At this time, Qi Jian's cold sweat also came out and looked at Kan Zhi, but saw Kan Zhi's face as earthy, more than him
It's not much better.
Qi Jian opened his mouth and said, "What is this Liu Xiaqi doing outside Linzi City?"
Tian Heng sneered, "Yes, what is he doing here?" But his eyes looked at Kan Zhi.
Kan Zhi stammered, "Although this willow is rampant in the world, he will not dare to attack Linzi City, will he? Or just
It is not known that the road passes through here.
Tian Heng said coldly, "This is strange. It seems that the king and the left prime minister have known that Liu Xiazhi had come for a long time. Otherwise, why not
Ask him how many people he brought to Malaysia?
Qi Jiangong was shocked and said quickly, "How can I know?" Raise your eyes and look at Kan Zhi.
Kan Zhi looked at Tian Heng's suspicion and hurriedly said, "The willow metatars are rampant all over the world. Why didn't the right prime minister send a military vehicle to catch him?"
Tian Heng sighed, "It's not that he didn't want to be arrested, but he brought a lot of people, not 3,000, but 2,000. Linzi City
There are only 10,000 defenders. If they come out of the city, they may win, but there is no one stationed in the city. The willows have lived in the land for a long time, all like
How can the chariot catch up with him when he rides and shoots like a man like the wind? What's more, this person is a disciple of Longzi's Zhiliyi 10, Dongmen
The elder Dong Wu's younger brother, Tu Longzi Zhiliyi, is known as the saint in the sword. He is recognized as the world's first master, Dong Wu's swordsmanship, by
is called the second in the world, and he dares not provoke him. Dong Wu is the most protective person. If he kills Liu Xiayu, in case Dong Wu sees the blame, he will
All the assassins under his door were sent, or rushed in person, which was a big trouble! Plus Liu's brother Liu
Xiahui 12, it is said that he once learned art from Laozi 13, is currently a doctor of the State of Lu, and has made friends with Uncle Sun 14. Nowadays, the government of the State of Lu is in the season,
Meng and uncle's three families, the uncle and Sun's private soldiers are noless than 20,000. Now Uncle Sun listens to Liu Xiahui's words. If Liu Xiahui avenges his brother,
To move the three families, Qilu must start a war. Lu alone, there is no need to be afraid of him, but Lu Wu has been allied for a long time, and Lu has raised troops, so what
Will you move Wu? Although Wu has been weak in recent years, its elite soldiers are still the same. Three years ago, the Battle of Ailing 15, the State of Qi
Defeated by the Wulu coalition, now the bones of the fallen soldiers are not cold, and their vitality has not been restored. How can they make the same mistake?
Kan Zhi said: "Liu Xiahui is a beautiful woman who sits in her arms and is not confused. She is a well-known upright person in the world. She has already broken off her brother Liu Xiaqi
How could my brother's love set off the battle between Qilu for this notorious Liu Xiazhi?
Tian Heng said, "This is a child's opinion. How can brotherhood be broken? That's mostly a cover-up. What's more
If Liu Xiahui really wants revenge, she will naturally find another reason. How can she claim revenge for the thief Liu Xiaqi? He is in front of Qi Jian's
He pointed to Kan Zhi. Kan Zhi's face was red and he wanted to defend, but there was a ghost in his heart. He was neither straight nor angry. Qi Shangyou,
Although Tian Heng's right position is higher than Kan Zhi's left position, after all, it is a little excessive to scold him like his subordinates.
When Qi Jiangong was still a prince, Kan Zhi was his follower. Qi Jiangong became the king and gradually promoted Kan Zhi. When
is second only to Tian Heng's left phase, which is extremely favored. At present, Kan Zhi was reprimanded by Tian Heng, and Qi Jiangong was a little incongru, but
Under Tian Hengji's power, he dared not say anything. He and Kan Zhi stared at Tian Heng, thinking in their hearts: "Tian Heng is extremely wise, tonight
What is the purpose of entering the palace? Does he know what we are planning?" The two thought so in their hearts, and their backs came out
Cold sweat.
The candlelight swayed, making Tian Heng's face look uncertain.
Tian Heng looked at the two for a long time, smiled and said, "It's late at night. The king is going to bed, right? It's time to go back, ha
Ha! Why, does the left prime minister have any important things to discuss with the king?
Kan Zhi reluctantly smiled and said, "No, no, there are still some small things to tell the king, and it's time to go back home for a while."
Tian Heng smiled and said, "Mr. Left, the road is dark at night. Take care all the way back home. Don't accidentally fall off the car in case there is a
I have a headache and fever, and I have been bored ever since.
Kan Zhi couldn't help laughing back and said, "Thank you for your concern. The right phase should also be careful. Be careful that the carriage and horse lose their front hoofs and break their brains.
Tian Heng laughed, got up and said goodbye to Qi Jiangong, strode out of the side hall and went far away. Qi Jiangong and Kan Zhiqi
I heard his loud laugh.
After Tian Heng left, Qi Jiangong and Kan Zhi looked at each other in consterance. Although it was winter, both of them sweated coldly on their foreheads.
Qi Jiangong called the temple 16 and burned the copper stove around them more vigorously.
Qi Jiangong asked the temple people to retreat and frowned, "Tian Heng came tonight, said a few words, and let the committee and
I don't know what the purpose of the widow's bodyguard compared with the sword?
Kan Zhi said, "Tian Heng may have guessed our plan and came here to test it. He asked the yam committee to compete with Ping Qijian, or listen to
It is said that Weichen recommended new bodyguards for the king to try the origin of these bodyguards.
Qi Jiangong was shocked and said, "In this way, Tian Heng already knows our plan? This commission is abominable, and I will be in the future
It is necessary to kill it."
Kan Zhi said, "Although Tian Heng guessed that the king and Weichen wanted to deal with him, he didn't expect how much strength he had. In his opinion,
In Linzi City, with his strength, even if all the soldiers in the king's palace, plus more than 1,000 people in the palace, how can he
Fight against him? Even if the three families of Guo, Gao and Bao are counted, there are less than 2,000 people. How can they beat Tian Heng's cousin Tian's 10,000 Lin
Zicheng guards? Looking at Tian Heng's arrogant appearance today, we know that he despises us in his heart and will never be careful.
In addition to the twelve royals, there are also twelve assassins invited by Dongmen. The twelve assassins are all smart brothers under Dong Wumen
Son, you are good at swordsmanship. As long as you can assassinate Tian Wei, you can successfully take over the city guards in Linzi.
Qi Jiangong nodded and said, "Even if you fail to assassinate Tian Inverse, the 3,000 dead you ambushed outside the city is enough to contain Tian Inverse."
Kan Zhi's heart sank and thought, "As soon as I die, I don't even know where these 3,000 dead men are. I'm afraid of these 3,000 people
I don't need it."
Qi Jiangong said, "What's more, we still have 2,000 cavalry under the big thief Liu Xiayu, which can be regarded as an extremely powerful strange soldier.
It's just that this willow metatarsal acted secretly, which actually let Tian Heng know his whereabouts and made Tian Shi defensive.
Kan Zhi said, "Liu Xiazhao is the uncle of Weichen. He is extremely powerful. It's good to show his hiding, and Tian Ru 10,000 city soldiers,
Be careful to defend the city and spare no hands to deal with us.
Qi Jiangong nodded and frowned, "If everything goes well, of course it's good. It's just that Liu Xiaqi is a man across the country,
No one can control it. This time, it will promise you. The compensation you want is also terrible, isn't it? If his people enter Linzi City,
I'm afraid it will turn upside down, and there will be endless troubles in the future.
Kan Zhi said: "Of course, what Liu Xiazhi wants is extremely high, but the Tian family is extremely rich, and if the Tian family is destroyed, it will be one of them
The family property is enough to send the willows. What's more, Liu Xiaqi agreed that after everything was done, he would never make trouble in the city. If he goes his word, that is,
is the uncle of the minister. At that time, the minister had already mastered the 10,000 defenders of Linzi, and the military power was in hand, so he simply took this thief who dominated the world
Exterminate, hum!"
Qi Jian said, "This matter can only succeed and must not fail. Otherwise, you and I will both die at the hands of Tian Heng. Tian
The father and son are evil, and the first king died at the hands of the Tian family. Tian Heng will not be soft on me.
Kan Zhi nodded and said, "If Tian Heng is suspicious, maybe he will attack first and break into the palace directly, which is not good for the king.
If the king is at fault, everything will be over.
Qi Jiangong was shocked: "Can't these twelve emperors protect me?"
Kan Zhi said, "Don't worry about the king. Although these twelve royals are the leaders, there are still 11 people enough to resist the appointment
Where is the master of assassination? I'm just afraid that Tian will lead the army into the palace and win more.
Qi Jiangong hurriedly said, "What should we do?"
Kan Zhi said: "In case Tian leads the army to attack, the monarch can be protected by the twelve emperors and temporarily leave the palace to avoid each other. The overall situation has been decided,
Weichen personally led the army to take the king back to the palace.
Qi Jiangong nodded and said happily, "That's good. I have been angry with Tian Heng for a long time, but fortunately, Zuo Xiang is such a loyal and brave man.
is expected to deal with Tian Heng. Tomorrow is the end of the year, and the day after tomorrow is the day of early spring, which is the first day of Tian's thief.
Kan Zhi laughed and said, "It's not the day after tomorrow, it's tomorrow."
Qi Jiangong was stunned.
Kan Zhi snorted and said coldly, "Tian Heng heard the wind today and came to try it out. Maybe there will be something tomorrow
, he has to arrange it properly, or at least a day. Weichen has been planning for a long time, and it is not difficult to act one day earlier, so he came to fight quickly
Slow down, let's do it tomorrow and catch him off guard!"
