Chapter 268: Different, My Fist is Bigger
In mid-April, the emperor issued an edict to announce it to the world.
A group of rebels, led by Empress Cui, Concubine De and their maternal family, the Feng family, were beheaded at the Caishikou of the East Market to set the record straight!
Wei Li, the senior cavalry commander, was promoted to the commander of the five patrol camps, the first rank, for his meritorious service in capturing the rebels and protecting the emperor's carriage.
After several months, this conspiracy to murder the emperor was finally settled.
The heated discussions among the people did not stop.
The turmoil in the court has not subsided.
There were many people involved in the conspiracy case, and the officials implicated ranged from the fifth rank to the first rank, totaling more than twenty people.
The main culprits were all sentenced to death by beheading, and their families were either enslaved, exiled, or sent to remote frontiers with tattoos on their names. Their families were broken up and their wives and children were torn apart.
What made the ministers even more worried was that, except for the emperor who was lying in bed and Princess Changle, all the royal bloodline had died in this treason.
This... To be disrespectful, the emperor is currently terminally ill. What if one day - the Dai Viet royal family will be left without successors?
The country cannot be without a king for a day, otherwise Dai Viet will be in chaos!
For a time, the court officials were worried, had ulterior motives, and had different thoughts in mind.
East Second Lane of East Market, Wei Mansion.
A group of servants were busy organizing and packing up things in the mansion.
Tianbao and the others sat in the small back garden of the Wei Mansion, eating snacks and chatting while eating.
The house is not big but it has everything.
The study rooms of the main courtyard and guest house are concentrated in the south corner. The small garden is planted with flowers and asparagus fern, and is interspersed with rockery pavilions, which is very elegant.
"This house is nice, big and beautiful. How can you not live in it? What a pity!" Su Wu ran around the whole house as soon as he arrived, with a look of regret on his face.
The ten of their families combined are not as big as the small garden of the Wei Mansion... The wealthy families in Changjing are truly extravagant.
Wei Li sat with them at the small stone table in the garden, wearing an embroidered black robe, looking calm and noble.
"Hong De is lying in bed and can't move. Government affairs can't be handled. The court is in chaos now, and the ministers have all kinds of thoughts. I need to take the next step. Then, I will have to live in the palace." Wei Li sneered lightly and turned his head to look in the direction of the palace.
The palace is surrounded by high walls. Living in it is like entering a cage and putting shackles on yourself.
Gains and losses are hard to tell.
Tian Bao patted the snack crumbs on his hands and said, "Once your identity as a prince is revealed, becoming emperor will only be a matter of time. It's just too brain-consuming."
Wei Li, "..."
Bai Yu chuckled, "Every place has its own rules of survival. The royal family wants to live by using their brains, while the exiled people want to live by using their fists. In fact, they are all the same."
Tian Bao frowned and immediately disagreed, "It's different, my fist is bigger."
Bai Yu, "..."
The three boys from the Su family fell down laughing beside the stone table.
Su Wu pounded the ground, "You knew Tianbao couldn't chat, but you still insisted on talking to her. You deserve to be humiliated, hahahaha!"
The girl sat there with a wooden face, giving each person next to her a death stare, trying to see who could laugh the loudest.
Bai Yu immediately covered his face with a fan, Wei Li lowered his head and pretended to cough, and Su An and Su Wen chose to bury their heads in the ground like Su Wu.
"It's a rare opportunity for us to get together. It's been a while since we've practiced sparring together. How about a fight?" After a while, Wei Li looked up and suggested, but his eyes fell on the sad-looking girl.
The other four young men were all shocked when they heard this, and looked at him with great admiration.
When the girl opposite heard about the fight, her almond-shaped eyes immediately lit up, and her discouragement disappeared and she became full of energy.
A smile flashed across Wei Li's eyes.
The eldest sister is actually very easy to coax. She will be happy as long as she gets beaten up... This time, it's his turn.
"Use fists or weapons!" Tianbao turned over and jumped to the open space next to him, excited.
Wei Li stood up from his seat and stood steadily across from the girl. He said with a smile, "Use your weapons. Senior Sister has a strong fist, and I'm afraid I can't handle it."
Stone Table Four: Bah! Even this can make you flatter!
Tianbao's eyes became brighter. She had rarely used the Moon-Drinking Sword when traveling outside over the years, and those people were not strong enough to withstand a beating.
With a feint of her right hand, the Moon Drinking Blade appeared out of thin air in her hand. The girl took a step forward, holding the blade across her left arm, and said, "Come!"
Wei Li took the spear that the servant had hurriedly brought to him, pointed it sideways, and with a deep look in his eyes, the iron-blooded killing rage he had honed on the battlefield immediately burst out, his imposing manner overwhelming, "Senior Sister, be careful!"
"Keep this sentence to yourself!"
As the girl finished speaking, the two of them rushed towards each other quickly, and their weapons collided in mid-air, sparks flying.
In a blink of an eye, the open space in the small garden was filled with flying sand and rocks.
The four people watching nearby were dazzled and could hear the clanging sounds incessantly.
Su Wu stared with his eyes wide open, muttering, "Wei Li is not bad, he can actually last nearly a hundred moves against Tian Bao and still be defeated..."
Su An nodded, "It's really not bad, and the Kung Fu moves he uses have also improved. They are quite different from what Uncle Broken Blade taught us."
Su Wen sighed deeply, "After not seeing each other for so many years, everyone has improved. You really can't tell without fighting. When you're apart for three days, you should look at each other with new eyes."
Bai Yu raised his lip and leaned lazily against the stone table. "The battlefield is full of ever-changing situations. He integrated martial arts moves into practice and modified them on the battlefield, making them more suitable for him, and the moves he used were more fierce."
They all learned from Uncle Duan Dao.
However, the same martial arts displayed completely different power in each of them.
Uncle Duan Dao is a very upright and kind person. When facing the enemy, he is brave and powerful but still maintains his righteousness and noble spirit.
Tianbao is indifferent and focused. People and things that don't catch her eye are like ants in front of her. They have tricks but are ruthless.
Wei Li, however, had hatred in his heart and a reserved and deep temperament. When he used the same moves, each one was fierce and ruthless, and his aura was domineering.
After a moment of distraction, Bai Yu looked again and saw the girl descending from the sky, like a flying dragon diving into the abyss, with an aura that swallowed up mountains and rivers.
when--
The spear in Wei Li's hand broke in half, and he quickly dodged the sword and took three full steps back.
Another loud bang was heard.
Where Wei Li was standing just now, a corner of the rockery behind him was chopped off, and the broken stones rolled to the ground.
The beautiful rockery was ruined.
Bai Yu covered his eyes, the three boys from the Su family held their heads in their hands, and Wei Li stood there in a daze, his mouth twitching and his breathing still unsteady.
Wei Li, "Senior Sister, are you going to chop me like a rock?"
Bai Yu, "Tianbao, it's my fault. I forgot to tell you to show mercy and not to destroy the objects."
The three boys didn't want to talk, they were scared to death.
If Wei Li had not dodged quickly, the last bloodline of Dayue would have been gone.
Tian Bao put away the knife, his face dry and guilty, "...I was wrong."
The corners of their mouths twitched even more violently for those who knew her temper.
Haha, you’re quite straightforward in admitting your mistake.
I'll play again next time I have the chance.
Facing the distrustful looks of the five people, Tian Bao tilted his head and scratched his face, "Next time, let's just fight with fists. It's safer."
five,"……"
Wei Li was the most helpless.
At least he has no scars on his body compared to the weapons.
If you fight with fists, you will definitely end up with bruises on your face.
For a moment he couldn't tell which one was better.
