Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: The Ambush

Chen Xing is planning how to say, Wang Ziye again said: "The Chen family is difficult, it is innocent, at the beginning of a war in Jinyang, the lives were ruined, really died too many people." Fu Jian sighed and said to Chen Xing: "It is my fault." Chen Xing understood that Fu Jian's original intention was to apologize to him, but his parents and family were gone, what use could an apology have? "A dead man cannot be brought back to life," Chen Xing thought for a moment and said, "In these years, I have retired from the world and practiced, and I have already seen past it." Fu Jian nodded, and for a while the study was very quiet. At last, the king got up at midnight and said, "I have to go and see the list of Chunjiu. Forty-eight Confucian scholars have been sent from all over the country." Fu Jian then got up and said: "I will not send, just talk with the children." Can get an emperor favor, when it is the wish of the full dynasty Wenwu, Chen Xing but not much flattered, the reason is not him, he on Chang 'an, not to seek a place to come, more afraid of offending Fu Jian. And with the Hoo-han in the mix, you can't create too much intimacy. Don't go out of date, Wang Zi night, and meaningfully looked at Chen Xing. 'What did Your Majesty want to see me about? Chen Xing asked voluntarily. Last night still stuck in my heart, Chen Xing need a little time to comb from the beginning, exorcism department's clues so broken, more and Feng Qianyi brothers two people. Who were the assassins who came after him? Was it the Feng family sent to kill him, or was it the gang of secret masters who controlled "Fa"? Fu Jian earnestly said: "First thank you for saving our Dashan Yu." Chen Xing was too busy to be modest, by the way, Fu Jian asked Chen Xing how to run to Xiangyang City, after last night's events, Chen Xing vaguely felt that he was in the Ming, the enemy in the dark, after all, a little dangerous, plus Yuwenxin has been his identity to the palace, the palace is known, he left a heart, only the road through Xiangyang, just trapped, can not go. Fu Jian is not an inquiring person, Chen Xing observed his look, obviously what he said, to the convenience of calm letter, Fu Jian and asked Chen Xing life read what books, will not do the article, Chen Xing honest answer: "Learned a few years of medicine, ashamed, can only govern people, write the way of the world, but learn not much." Fu Jian will smile, quite deep meaning: "A few days ago can not keep down the itch, and the big single in a few moves, after all, old, shoulder stiffness, you give me a few needles." Chen Xing: "..." Fu Jian did not wait for the command, the inner servant has sent the needle stone, Chen Xing thought for a moment, then happily said: "All right." Fu Jian took off half of the imperial robe, showed the muscles tangled, naked shoulder and back, lying on the couch in front of the book, Chen Xing sat over, took the silver needle, after the moxibustion fire, for Fu Jian needle. Fu Jian in addition to the "Qin emperor", "King of heaven" and "North Communist Lord" of the name, there is a resountable title, is "the first warrior of the Qin Dynasty", legend north of the Huai River, Fu Jian among the men headed, and he had dealt with, most of them have died. But Chen Xing had no doubt that Xiang Shu had the strength to defeat Fu Jian. Because he found that Fu Jian's heart had a small bruise, apparently after being hit by the scabblade, in exchange for a sharp sword, so it was advisable to Fu Jian's life. Fu Jian may not be able to beat Xiangshu - Chen Xing thought, Xiangshu won in his speed is too fast, the world's martial art, only fast not broken. Fu Jian again brave, on the item of a lightning move, may not be able to resist. "At the first sight of you that night," Fu Jian, lying on his stomach, said casually, "I knew that you could not be a boy who described the Fu, but that you were a scholar with the same temperament as them." Chen Xing smiled: "I and them, really not a team, your Majesty still misread." What Chen Xing said is true, not modest, although it is a family tradition, but after escaping Jinyang, Chen Xing is not like the ordinary Confucian scholars, hard to read the four books and five classics, learning the way of governance such as Dong Zhongshu and other sages. Usually studied, all are mountains and sea monsters, folk customs, astronomy and geography and other disciplines, most of these belong to "miscellaneous learning", is the Confucian scholars look down on, the hundreds of sons only for circumstantial evidence to assist the use, the study is not deep. The learning of Confucius and Mencius, on the contrary, is the natural enemy of the exorcist, the saying goes that the son does not say strange, force, chaos, God, Confucius has more "can not do people, how can do ghosts?" Let me tell you. It can be seen that Confucianism is strongly opposed to the "illusion" that the exorcist is familiar with, and advocates focusing on this "present world" at ordinary times. "You remind me of someone." Fu Jian closed his eyes, slowly said: "A Han." Chen Xing picked up the needle, into the Fu Jian in the back of the neck lower three points, this time, he as long as the needle toward the Fu Jian back head of the wind Fu point a stab, the needle into three inches, Fu Jian will be killed. He did not know why an emperor had the courage to put his life in the hands of others, so a needle down, it must be able to complete Feng Qianyi heart of the cause of revenge. But Chen Xing did not do so, even if he has the star protection, others also have purple Mstar guardian, really want to go down so a needle, the star and purple Mstar play up, who wins who loses is not necessarily it. "Have you seen my father?" Chen Xing said. "No," Fu Jian answered, still with his eyes closed, "I have only long heard of my Fu." But the man I remember, his name is Wang Meng. He died a year ago." A few years ago, Wang Meng, Fu Jian's chief adviser, assisted Fu Jian in destroying Fu Jian's chief enemy, established the pattern of the Qin and Jin dynasties, and gave him advice and advice to bring down Fu Sheng, the cruel and murderous last emperor. He promulgated many laws of the state of Qin to promote the status of the Han people, and often reminded Fu Jian that to lay the foundation for all generations, the strength of the Han people was still needed, and relying only on the Di clan and the Hu outside the pass would only destroy themselves within a hundred years. When Wang Meng was alive, the Qin Dynasty was like a galloping carriage, a sweep of the Jin years of weakness and fatigue, the more brave the battle, ten years without defeat, Fu Jian also became the god of war. Qin also became the most dynamic state in the world. Fu Jian often compared Wang Meng to Zhuge Liang and cited him as a close friend. However, Wang Meng only lived fifty years and gave up, and Fu Jian also suffered a major blow when he died, and his temples were frosted white, until more than a year later, he gradually came out. "HMM." Chen Xing had another thing in mind. "The King Ziye you saw just now," said Fu Jian, "is his brother of the clan." 'Oh? Chen Xing again inserted the needle and applied ten needles to Fu Jian's back. Fu Jian said to himself: "You and the scene slightly long is not like the slightest, but I do not know why, I see you at first sight, then think of him to..." "Maybe." After inserting the needle, Chen Xing smiled at Fu Jian and said, "Because Wang Meng is my senior brother, we both learned art under the same master." Fu Jian suddenly, and at this time, the party burst out a burst of laughter, no doubt about what Chen Xing said, repeated: "So, so!" Chen Xing explained: "Since entering the master's door, I have only seen the master brother twice, and I don't talk much. Once for five years..." Fu Jian said: "Yes, that year slightly helped me beat the constant temperature, back to Huashan once." Chen Xing "um" sound, and said: "once is Jianyuan six years." Fu Jian said: "Jing Luo and I made a farewell on the top, attacked the Xianbei Murong Clan, and defeated the enemy troops." These two times are Chen Xing only two to see the big brother Wang Meng opportunity, because Wang Meng is facing the arrival of the Great Luck of China, difficult to make decisions, return to Huashan, toward the master request instructions. In Chen Xing's memory, the elder brother was a open-minded person who treated him very kindly, but he was still young at that time and could not leave many deep memories, only remembering fragments of what the elder brother and Master talked about. "Your Majesty, do not move," said Chen Xing, pressing Fu Jian's back, "there are still a few needles." "Same door." Fu Jian listened to Chen Xing explain, thoughtfully, "Master has passed away, really pity." So, do you and my big single have a marriage contract? It's a match." Chen Xing: "..." Fu Jian: "Light... Be gentle." "Your Majesty," Chen Xing said with a threatening voice, leaning a little closer, "I don't know him well. Not even friends!" Why does everyone think they have something to do with it? Daaaaaa! Chen Xing simply lost his temper, could it be because he was brought to the palace by Xiang Shu? However, think carefully, they have to Xiangshu salvation grace, Xiangshu and thousands of miles away, brought him to Chang 'an, it is no wonder Fu Jian began to misunderstand the relationship between the two. Fu Jian said: "Well, it is not, you do not impulsive." Chen Xing finished the last two needles and said: "OK, Your Majesty do not move." Fu Jian said again: "Since you are Jing Luo's junior teacher's brother, leaving the master and coming to Chang 'an must be for the sake of settling down, what do you think of Da Qin?" Chen Xing gathered his things briefly, sat aside and replied, "I'm just passing by. I have to leave soon." Fu Jian was suddenly a little surprised and asked, "Where do you want to go?" Chen Xing showed his hand and smiled: "I don't know." Fu Jian, lying on his stomach and turning his head slightly, asked again: "Have you made a pact with Shu Lu Kong?" Chen Xing: "I have nothing to do with him, Your Majesty." Fu Jian afraid of Chen Xing and to make fun of themselves, busy signal good, we do not mention this matter, thinking for a moment, and asked: "Chen Tianchi, do you think the princess of Qinghe's cousin, my SAN riding constant, that name Tuobayan boy how?" Outside the study, Tuobayan coughed awkwardly. Chen Xing: "..." "Your Majesty," Chen Xing said earnestly, "As the emperor, you have so many things to do, why do you have nothing to do, and want to come to me?" Or a man's marriage?" Fu Jian said: "Dashan and Tuoba boy, are both my good brothers, for the brothers to say the door marriage, what is the problem?" "No." Chen Xing immediately changed his words, "But it is also to find a girl!" Fu Jian laughed again and explained: "This autumn, I am ready to issue a new decree, between the men in the world, can get married, in the marriage, no longer subject to the legal constraints." "Yes, I heard." Chen Xing was bored, "But I..." Fu Jian made a gesture, interrupted: "You don't look at Tuoba boy weekdays do not show mountain dew, but great wisdom like a fool, smart transparent, young people, small things occasionally rash, this can not be done, but the big thing is never vague." If you are willing to marry him, consider it a good match, why not stay here and serve me? You and Yan 'er are armed, and I am personally married..." Chen Xing: "I..." Chen Xing a little want to take advantage of the opportunity that the needle can not move, directly give Fu Jian a slap, but suddenly thought wrong, ordinary people, the emperor refers to marriage, married to the most favored in the dynasty of the three army command, four military attaches, young talent, what a great blessing? ! How is his family, now is only a grass people, and not to mention the people, even if the official children, Fu Jian opened his mouth, naturally is also grateful, where there is the reason to refuse? Chen Xing took a deep breath and smiled: "We are all men..." Fu Jian said: "That's right, why in vain? All we need is a quick word. In the homeland of our people..." "I mean, we're all men, and we don't use the word 'marry' to get married!" Chen Xing was about to flip the table and said, "Why didn't someone else marry me?" Fu Jian was interrupted by Chen Xing, the half not angry, only said: "If you are willing to enter the court as an official, assist me to unite the world's overlord, let me see your strength, then appointed from the three and above official posts, I will Tuoban Yan let you as a wife, what harm?" Chen Xing: "No, no, no, that's not what I meant..." Fu Jian: "You ask Yan 'er, would you like to..." Chen Xing: "No! Halt! Your Majesty! ' Chen Xing only listened to Tuobayan outside the study and coughed, immediately regardless of everything, cut off Fu Jian's talk, in case Tuobayan really said "can", then the king no joke, the die has been done, can not be changed. "There is no deception," Chen Xing could only seriously answer Fu Jian, "It is not a question of who is married to, Your Majesty, there is one thing..." "The greatest simplicity is the greatest arrival." Tuoban Yan outside the door suddenly said. Chen Xing wanted to tell Fu Jian that it was useless to force me and Tuobayan to get married when you were so blind and dumb. Anyway, I could not live to be twenty years old, and I was busy. When I heard the story came, the conversation abruptly stopped. Xiang Shu did not wait for Fu Jian's permission, he went into the imperial study, frowning slightly, asking for a place to sit down. Chen Xing glimpsed Xiang Shu and found that today Xiang Shu changed his body into a black martial robe, wearing a pair of black boots, all over the body, without embroidery and gorgeous embellishing, only wearing a black iron finger tiger on his right hand. The clothes are simple, and the complexion is more pale, just like the vitality of the straight poplar tree, shining. Many people want to marry big single, Chen Xing thought, you have nothing to do, should go to give them marriage. Marry the sixteen boys who were in the hall this morning to Shangshu and see what he does. "The narrative is empty?" Fu Jian said, "It is said that you proposed sixteen marriages to the Xianbei, Xiongnu and Qiang families in Chang 'an?" Chen Xing: "..." Xiang Shu did not answer, but sat down beside, Fu Jian jokingly said: "You are also old enough to get married, but can you afford to marry sixteen houses this time?" Don't try to be young and strong enough to take a turn in one night, and leave some disease behind, or..." He looked at it suspiciously: "What else do you like?" Chen Xing almost laughed out loud and tried to hold it back, but Xiang Shu said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense, Jian head I'm afraid you are not moving, so I will call your Murong something, far out?" Fu Jian said angrily: "Now I will show you my ability!" Fu Jian handy on the shoulder of Chen Xing, Chen Xing a face at a loss, have not understood the meaning of the words of two people, but felt the item of the body exudes a dangerous breath. Fu Jian did not care to smile, let go of Chen Xing, toward the Xiangshu said: "Or you plan to try it yourself?" Item description convergence a murderous, coldly said: "Go!" Suddenly there was silence in the study. Chen Xing thought for a moment, broke the quiet atmosphere, and said, "I have pulled the needle, Your Majesty." Fu Jian signaled to pull is, and said to Xiangshu: "I heard that last night in the northwest Tongren Street, a Han died, is a driver." Chen Xing heart suddenly a rin, did not expect Fu Jian actually will pay attention to such small things, is, if ordinary people such as violent death on the street, presumably the government has been involved. But this person is related to the big single, the government will not dare to trace, had to report to the palace. He had butterflies in his stomach, wondering how it would be explained. Did not expect the item Shu just lightly said: "I killed, how?" Fu Jian said casually, "What are you doing killing a defenceless Han? It's not like you." Chen Xing's mood is quite complicated, but Xiang Shu said: "Because I am a mad dog, see people kill." Chen Xing: "..." Fu Jian naturally knew this was not the case, saying so only to block him. "This is Chang 'an, not outside the Pass." Fu Jian's voice became serious and explained, "To come to Guanzhong, you must abide by the laws and regulations of Guanzhong. I have spent a great deal of effort to control the five families outside the Pass and ask them not to kill the Han people. To do this is to destroy my imperial system, abuse my imperial order, and state the rule of Fu. "No... That's not true." Chen Xing wanted to explain, but at a glance, he took the words back. Xiang Shu gently shook his head, meaning don't say anything. Fu Jian said lightly: "Chen Tianchi, what do you think of Chang 'an under my administration?" Chen Xing was silent for a moment, then said the truth: "The governance is very good, abundant and prosperous, worthy of being the capital." Before Chen Xing entered Chang 'an, he imagined a completely different scene. He did not expect the capital to be so prosperous, and the Hu and Han ethnic groups lived peacefully together. "When they once lived outside the Fortress, they had no laws and regulations," Fu Jian said, "Even if they had formulated laws and regulations, most of them had no regard for the laws of the king. Let them know the reward for killingIt's a hard price to pay for your life. I want the people in the world, are fed and warm, the road also, the world for the public. The old have their end, the strong have their use, the young have their strengths, the torture and benevolence talk about letting, and the people have always... The statement is empty." Chen Xing pulled up the needle, Fu Jian activity shoulder, has recovered as usual, nodding with satisfaction. "Think clearly," Fu Jian said, "It is not our time to be outside the Plug." Xiang Shu heard a little impatient, just got up and glanced at Chen Xing. Chen Xing knew that Xiang Shu had words, he just got up and said goodbye to Fu Jian. Fu Jian, however, said, "When I asked you earlier about that thing, you have not yet given me an explanation, Chen Tianchi. There are not many people in the world who dare to put me on hold." Chen Xing did not expect Fu Jian actually remember, look at the description, and then see Fu Jian. Xiang Shu first went out, did not want to listen to the words of the two, Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Your Majesty, to get married, you must also have feelings?" This person who has no feelings, you pointed to marriage, most of them are not happy, I... You have so much to do, don't worry about it." Fu Jianhun did not expect Chen Xing to answer this way, so he laughed and said: "There is no emotion, you can cultivate, it is interesting to say so, it is, go." Chen Xingru amnesty, quickly withdrew, suddenly thought of Tuobayan, began to be embarrassed, but a glance on both sides, but found Tuobayan is not outside the door, only the project is waiting for him. Chen Xing preoccupied, followed the item out, the item suddenly turned back, Chen Xing was afraid of being hit, thought the item would hit him again, busy toward the back one let, watchfully staring at the item, ready to run. Xiang Shu saw Chen Xing like this, and it was not good to get close again, so he had to say: "I want to understand, you did not cheat me." You are indeed an exorcist, and you cast your magic on Longzhong Mountain that day." Chen Xing heart think you play also play, scold also scold, now return to God, apologize to come? Is an apology enough to pretend nothing happened? "Oh," he said. Chen Xing said, "So what?" Xiang Shu coldly said: "But you shouldn't have gone to pine House last night, strong head already know their plot, but now have not mastered enough evidence, do not want to lightly kill." Chen Xing knew this, the original Feng family in Chang 'an city, under the emperor's eye planning to assassinate Fu Jian, this thing Fu Jian had long heard the news, but do nothing, one Fu Jian always have full confidence in their own strength, the group of people plotting against him, just a clown. Second, the other side did not move, Fu Jian did not want to create the name of a murderous tyrant among the Han people, so he had a crime, and then cut the other side off. "How should I know? Chen Xing said, "I just want to find the site of the Exorcism Department, where do you think they would hide in the pine and Cypress house to discuss such a thing?" Item description looked around, no one around, just sat down in the corridor, holding one knee for a moment to think. Chen Xing hated him very much, but to see the story that look, and angry, the early spring sunshine, fell on the story, this beautiful man is too pleasing to the eye, today the story dressed as an assassin, the body is full of a handsome but dangerous breath. Chen Xing had to take his breath out of a tree in the garden, break a branch, and pump the bush several times, as if to draw a statement, saying: "Finally they asked me to help kill Fu... I didn't even promise to kill that one, I'm going to do it today, and you're coming to me?" Chen Xing guess item statement waited for a long time, did not see him come back, for fear of an accident, they rushed to see, so to say, item statement to him is also very strange, while punching and kicking, while worrying about his life, last night is also so, if not afraid of him in distress, determined not to go to pine house. Chen Xing will yesterday said once, and observe the face, thought he should be a tight-lipped person, after all, the original words are not much. For some reason, he always felt that it was safe to tell things to Xiangshu. "Any leads on the guy who killed you?" After hearing the description of Chen Xing, suddenly way. "No," Chen Xing had to answer, "could it be from the Feng family?" "No way." Item description also dont want to veto way. 'Why? "When they couldn't convince me, they decided to kill me..." Xiang Shu replied, "Because the Feng family knows that you have been taken by me and will not start on this night, otherwise you will only make trouble for yourself." Chen Xing wondered, "Who could that be?" But a careful thought will not be Feng Qian Yi, because the shadow assassin is obviously some kind of monster, Feng Qian Yi since he can not activate the family treasure sword, naturally should not have the ability to make such a monster. Chen Xing and item Shu look at each other, the power of the heart lamp seems to let them know each other's thoughts. The only possibility is that The mystery men are on to them. "' They 'are in Chang 'an?" Chen Xing murmured. "Don't you understand?" Xiang replied, "You are too bold!" Chen Xing showed his hand and said, "First, before I came down from the mountain, I had no idea that there would be such a group of guys in the world plotting to do this or that in the dark to subvert the mainland of China." Second, you didn't stop me when I said I was an exorcist, Lord Protector..." Xiang Shu coldly said: "I am not a guardian, I just want to find out the truth." Chen Xing: "OK, to say the least, what's the use of hindsight now?" You..." Looking at the story, he asked curiously for the first time, "Why are you so persistent about the hidden secrets of the demon?" The description responded with silence.
