After the cannon fodder fell into my arms

Chapter 80 The Altar

one,

The forests on the outskirts of Qing County were originally rugged mountain roads and overgrown weeds.

I don't know when, a high platform rose from here, and the place became smooth and smooth in a very short period of time.

At noon this day, the auspicious time has just arrived.

The sound of instrumental music kept ringing, and on the high altar, fireworks curled up in the burnt wood stove.

A young man in a light-colored Beaulieu costume stood under the high platform with all the civil and military officials.

When the officials from the Ministry of Rituals sang, the young man immediately walked up to the altar step by step, first bowed to salute, then took the thick incense handed over, and was about to insert it into the incense burner.

At this moment, the pillar in the center of the altar suddenly shook slightly.

"Your Highness Sixth!" Ming Bao's face turned pale, and his shrill voice sounded.

Gu Siyuan had just received the huge amount of information, and his head was throbbing, when he heard a sharp shout.

When he looked up, he saw that the pillar on the high platform seemed to be about to fall down.

Before he had time to think, Gu Siyuan immediately stepped on the steps, flew forward, and kicked him.

And the strength of this body is indeed astonishing. Under this kick, the pillar weighing nearly a thousand catties actually straightened back.

"what!"

"sky!"

There was a sound of exclamation in the crowd.

And in this chaos, Gu Siyuan glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw a figure secretly retreating outside.

found it.

Gu Siyuan pulled out the dagger from his waist and threw it without hesitation.

The wind howled, and the next moment, the man's shoulders were covered with blood, and his body also rushed forward.

Gu Siyuan stood on the altar, stroked his sword, looked around, and shouted loudly: "The Imperial Forest Army immediately seized the living, the sacrificial pillar was artificially knocked down, and a traitor tried to assassinate the Holy One!"

Everyone came back to their senses in an instant.

Yes, this ceremony was originally presided over by His Majesty himself, but he suddenly felt unwell this morning, so he handed it over to the always favored Sixth Prince Xie Xuan.

Oh my god... this is someone assassinating Jun!

The sergeants of the surrounding guards immediately acted.

Gu Siyuan squinted his eyes, and continued: "There are people hiding under this altar. Come and ask the Holy One for instructions in the big tent. I'm afraid we need to tear down the sacrificial pillars and go in to search for people."

"Yes." The Royal Forest Army immediately took orders.

As soon as these words fell, Gu Siyuan heard a clear voice: "General, be careful."

The next moment, the wooden planks and bricks where he was standing exploded, and several cold long knives pierced the ground, slashing straight at his lower body.

Hey guys, can you hack anywhere?

Gu Siyuan's face was extremely cold, his body rose towards the sky, he retreated quickly, and drew a long sword from his waist, and slashed out like an autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, colliding with the enemy's blade.

The next moment, the masked enemy who bore the brunt was not only broken by the sword, but also flew out of the body.

In this way, the next two or three enemies who rushed up from below were also defeated one by one.

Gu Siyuan squinted his eyes happily, but showed some interest.

The strength of the original body was terrifying, and his own soul was sharper than ordinary people. With the cooperation of the hatchback, almost none of these masked men in black could please them. beheaded.

After a while, the masked leader looked at his own losses, felt great pain in his heart, and shouted repeatedly: "Withdraw, withdraw quickly!"

If they don't leave, they will lose everything.

Naturally, Gu Siyuan couldn't let them leave, and immediately wanted to chase them forward.

At this moment, the leader of the man in black rolled his eyes and threw his knife at the sixth prince Xie Xuan who was on the edge of the altar.

Xie Xuan's face paled instantly, and he quickly retreated to the side, but he was already standing on the edge, and if he retreated, he would fall directly, his slender body swaying in the wind.

"Your Highness Sixth!" Ming Bao hurriedly shouted.

Gu Siyuan stepped lightly on the soles of his feet, and flew up again. First, he kicked away the long knife, and then blocked it with his long arm, and the slender figure appeared in his arms.

After landing, Gu Siyuan didn't care about other things, he raised his foot and stepped on the hilt of the long sword next to him, kicked it out forcefully, and directly hit the thigh of the masked leader who was struggling to escape after dealing with Xie Xuan.

Suddenly, "Ah..." screamed, and the leader's movements immediately slowed down, and then his knees directly knelt down.

"Boss!" The few remaining masked men in black shouted anxiously.

Gu Siyuan's face was cold, and he continued to order loudly: "Arrest someone for me, and he will live, break his limbs, and remove his jaw."

"Yes." The group of guards under him were also well-trained, and they immediately responded.

"Your Highness..."

At this moment, a figure stumbled over and shouted at the person in Gu Siyuan's arms.

Gu Siyuan withdrew his gaze, squinted his eyes, and then realized that he was still holding someone, and blamed this person for being too light, holding him in his arms was as insensitive as holding a long sword.

"This is Xie Xuan, the task target of this world." A familiar cold mechanical voice sounded in his head.

At the same time, a voice like a clear spring also sounded in my ears: "General Gu, please let me down!"

Gu Siyuan was expressionless, and threw him down with a cold face.

"..." Xie Xuan was caught off guard and swayed a few steps before he managed to stand still.

After a while, he held back his anger, nodded and said, "Thank you, General, for saving me."

However, Gu Siyuan didn't seem to hear it, and ignored it, he turned around and left, the fluttering black cloak even brushed across Xie Xuan's body.

"..." Xie Xuan.

Ming Bao stared, and complained angrily: "Who is this, Your Highness, your status is precious..."

The next moment, Gu Siyuan suddenly turned his head and glanced at him.

Ming Bao seemed to be poured over his head by a basin of ice water, his heart trembled, and he closed his mouth unwillingly.

Gu Siyuan ignored them, jumped off the towering altar, and ordered coldly to the guards, "Bring the survivors here and interrogate them immediately."

There was an undisguised murderous intent in his voice.

Ming Bao didn't stop shaking until he saw the person walking away completely.

He murmured slightly: "General Gu's aura is so scary..."

Xie Xuan smiled lightly, not paying attention.

Seeing His Royal Highness's smile, Ming Bao became angry again: "Your Highness, you are a prince, he is only a little middle-ranking general, yet he dares to be so rude to you, let's go to His Majesty to sue him, His Majesty loves you the most." If you are dead, you will definitely punish him severely."

However, I don't know which sentence is wrong.

Xie Xuan's expression suddenly tightened, and he said in a low voice: "There is no need to mention this matter, let's go!"

……

There was a loud scream in the ear.

The tent was extremely quiet, and it became more and more frightening. Nie Hao raised his head slightly and looked at the tall figure sitting quietly on the grand master's chair above.

Gu Siyuan slowly stroked the icy long sword with his fingers, and the stern face reflected on Yin Liangjian was a bit colder than the cold iron.

He is thinking about the background information of this world he received earlier.

This is a feudal dynasty, the country he lives in is Daliang, and the country's surname is Xie.

Today's Shengshang reign is Jianzhao, the fourth monarch of Daliang, and his national power is at its peak.

And Xie Xuan, the task object he had just rescued, was the sixth prince of Emperor Jianzhao, whose biological mother was Concubine Lu Gui of the harem.

However, the leading actor in this world is the current Fourth Prince Xie Huan.

The mother of the fourth prince is Concubine Yun. Concubine Yun came from a foreign race in the borderlands. She is a saint in the clan and was dedicated to Daliang 18 years ago.

Emperor Jianzhao was still a little prince at that time, and he fell in love with him at first sight because of his demeanor.

However, there is a far-reaching purpose for a foreign race to offer a saint, and it is naturally dedicated to the emperor or the future emperor.

At that time, the first emperor was already old, and he was too lazy to accept a newcomer, so he bestowed it on the crown prince as a side concubine.

Emperor Jianzhao couldn't ask for it.

Until later, the imperial concubine became more and more fierce, the prince was abolished, and the concubines scattered.

However, Emperor Jianzhao, who has always been underestimated, was lucky enough to be on the Dabao.

After ascending the throne, the first thing he did was to change Concubine Yun's name and surname, and welcome her back into the palace.

However, Concubine Yun once performed a dance and appeared in front of people when she came to Beijing as a saintess of a foreign race. As the wife of a former brother, if someone found out, it might damage the emperor's reputation.

What's more, if he pampers her too much after entering the palace, he may be targeted by the harem. In Emperor Jianzhao's heart, his Concubine Yun is the most pure and flawless person in the world, so she must not be allowed to be contaminated by these worldly dust.

Therefore, Emperor Jianzhao arranged him in one of the most remote palaces, and lived his life behind closed doors. When he was outside, he did not pretend to be the fourth prince Xie Huan, who was born to him, as a cover for protection.

Even so, Emperor Jianzhao was still worried, he decided to find a shield for Concubine Yun's mother and son, which is now the imperial concubine Lu's.

Lu's family background is ordinary, she is just the daughter of a remote Zhizhou; and her mind is straightforward, so she should not be able to see through the intention behind it.

After Emperor Jianzhao chose the Lu family, he favored him immensely, crowning the Six Palaces. In just two years, the Lu family was promoted from a small talent to a concubine.

To do a full set of plays, Emperor Jianzhao also greatly appointed his natal family, and bestowed favor on the sixth prince Xie Xuan.

It's even unknown where the news came out that His Majesty intends to entrust the Sixth Prince with the country in a hundred years' time.

Now, no one has the heart to pay attention to Concubine Yun in that remote palace.

Every day, the court ministers and the Lu family were scolded by all kinds of demon concubines and concubines; the cold eyes of the concubines in the palace were naturally targeted at Lu's mother and son.

Emperor Jianzhao was obviously very satisfied with this, so he continued to go his own way, favoring concubine Lu Gui and Xie Xuan's mother and son even more.

And the heroine of this world, named Jiang Xianxuan, is the pro-niece of the eldest wife of Duke Cheng'en's mansion and the grandniece of Empress Dowager Jiang in the palace.

Jiang Xianxian has a good reputation and is deeply loved by the Queen Mother. She is often summoned to serve in the palace. Naturally, she is quite familiar with the princes of His Majesty.

Because of an accidental hero saving the beauty, Jiang Xianxian fell in love with the fourth prince Xie Huan who seemed to be unpopular with His Majesty.

Secretly, the two agreed with each other.

However, the Jiang family disagreed with this.

She even hopes that Jiang Yuanxuan can marry the favored sixth prince Xie Xuan, so that in the future, like her great-aunt, the Jiang family may produce another queen mother.

Jiang Xianxian was originally extremely unwilling.

However, perhaps Emperor Jianzhao's acting was too realistic.

In a certain accident, she saw Emperor Jianzhao's infinite doting towards Xie Xuan, and his stern and cold attitude towards Xie Huan, two completely different attitudes.

Jiang Xianxuan changed her mind, and she also developed infinite love for Xie Huan.

She decided to marry Xie Xuan, and she wanted to break into the enemy's interior, so as to help her beloved Xie Huan seize that supreme position.

Jiang Xianyuan has always had a good reputation, and she is also the grand-niece of the Queen Mother's family. After getting married, Xie Xuan naturally treated her with great courtesy.

Because Xie Xuan was weak since he was a child, he never left his body with medicine all the year round. Since Jiang Xianxian wanted to get close, he didn't dislike it at all, and even occasionally warmed the soup and boiled the medicine himself, asking the best of his health.

Xie Xuan felt guilty and trusted him more and more.

From then on, no matter whether it is family affairs or state affairs, she will reveal some points to her.

Therefore, after several years of fighting for the heir apparent, those brothers were finally imprisoned and expelled. Xie Xuan should have been the final winner.

However, in the end, because of Jiang Xianxuan's secret treason and framing, and because of Emperor Jianzhao's help, Xie Xuan was charged with several crimes, some of which were related to treason and infidelity.

Because of the rumors of concubine Lu Guifei's confidante, the Lu family and Xie Xuan had a bad reputation among the people in the court. After this crime happened, it was almost impossible to tell the difference.

Emperor Jianzhao also gave concubine Lu Guifei mother and son poisoned wine and white silk after a period of hypocritical misery.

At this time, the courtiers discovered that Emperor Jianzhao had only one prince who was still intact, and that was the fourth prince Xie Huan.

So in the end, Xie Huan was established as the prince.

Xie Xuan, a fool, worked so hard to defeat all the other brothers, but he only made wedding clothes for others.

……

"Sixth Prince? Idiot..."

Gu Siyuan squinted his eyes, his eyes were cold.

It's really unscrupulous for that poor, weak guy who is not even half as heavy in his arms to be used and deceived by the people closest to him one after another...

Nie Hao, who was at the bottom, saw that his general's good manners became colder and more terrifying, and he thought to himself: The general is jealous of evil, and he has always disliked the Lu family who rely on nepotism, and he doesn't like the sixth prince?But he has been cold-faced until now, and he still scolded the prince unscrupulously, isn't it?

At this moment, Gu Siyuan slightly raised his eyelids and met his gaze.

Nie Hao panicked, and hastily bowed to salute: "General."

Gu Siyuan stood up from the chair, and said lightly, "Go and see how the question is going? This bunch of trash has not responded yet."

"Yes."

Nie Hao hurriedly responded and led the way ahead.

At this moment, a man dressed as a father-in-law walked in with a few guards.

A shrill shout was heard: "Your Majesty ordered, Xuan Yulin Junzhong Lang will see you!"

Gu Siyuan immediately saluted respectfully: "Obey."

Tsk, this is a broken plan, do you want to settle accounts with him?
