The sound of the pine trees was low, and the autumn wind blew. The fog in the forest had already dissipated for a long time. Fu Tu frowned, and the knife in his hand was raised and lowered.
Fu Tu was the hidden name given to him by the Shangguan after he entered the Turkic Duyu Camp.
On the Duyu Camp's 'Undersea Blueprint,' his name was 'Blood Fang'. This was a very fierce and domineering name, and also the name of a fighting slave.
When he was 15 years old, he was selected by a Baiya of the Duyu Camp during a slave competition and was accepted into the Duyu Camp.
At that time, he had already been a slave for three years in the slave fighting camp where the Turkic nobles gambled for fun.
What about before entering the slave fighting camp?
Everyone thought he was an ordinary youth that the Turks had robbed from the border of Jin. No, he wasn't robbed. He took the initiative to sneak into the raiders at night.
The night was as dark as ink, and they were in the heart of the Turkic steppe. No one would notice if one of the hundreds of children from Liyang who had been robbed slipped in.
Why did he do that?
Because he was called Teng Yu. Because he had a father whose name was Teng Su, the Teng from the Teng family of the Wuxun family in the western capital of Liyang.
That's right, his father was Teng Su and Third Master Teng, the third son of the Teng family's eldest son, from the martial arts aristocratic family in the western part of the capital.
The 16-year-old Teng Su who joined the Jinzhou border army and made many meritorious deeds.
The twenty-five-year-old rebel general Teng Su of Liyang, who had been secretly ordered by the imperial court to betray Liyang and spy on the Turks with his wife and children, and had taken Zhang Lin of the Jinzhou Prefecture, the Anliao Road, and the fourth-rank Daoist platform to kill the eldest brother of the Liyang Crown Princess who had molested his wife.
Teng Su, who had been undercover with the Turks for three years and had made countless contributions to Liyang.
The Teng Su who was betrayed by Shangguan and had his family exterminated by the Turks.
Teng Yu escaped from the underground river in the well in the backyard of his house. Unfortunately, the underground river was too narrow. Only he, who had just turned twelve years old and was thin, could squeeze in.
Why didn't a twelve-year-old child escape back to the Teng family in Liyang? Why did he go the opposite way and infiltrate the Turks again?
Because from the moment his parents died tragically, he, Teng Yu, was no longer a child. Instead, he was a vengeful ghost who wanted to find out the truth and avenge his parents!
If he wanted to find out the truth and avenge his parents, he first had to have an identity that could infiltrate the Turks. As a Liyang man, he looked very different from the Turks.
His father had taught him a saying,'To attack by a roundabout route leads to the same destination.'
Since he couldn't pretend to be a Turkic, he would pretend to be a Han. Every year, the Turks would go to the border of Liyang to plunder people, and they would first mix with the people of Liyang who had been plundered to the Turks.
Then, he would join the Fighting Slave Camp. During the three years he spent with his father, his father would tell him some Turkic secrets, whether intentionally or unintentionally. For example, the Fighting Slave Camp was not only a place for the Turkic nobles to perform bloody battles and gamble for fun, but it was also a place where the Turkic intelligence and assassination forces, Hidden Tooth, Dark Tooth, and Duyu Camp, selected and nurtured fresh blood.
From the slave plundering camp to the slave fighting camp, and finally to the Turkic Hidden Tooth, Dark Tooth, and Du Yu Camp, he would be able to come into contact with many Turkic secrets and find out the truth behind his parents 'deaths.
Heaven would not let down those who worked hard! Five years ago, Fu Tu finally found some clues.
It turned out to be a trusted aide of the Liyang Crown Princess who had revealed his father's true identity to the Turkic Duyu Camp's subordinate who had been hiding in the border army of Jinzhou.
The reason why Fu Tu had been holding back until now and hadn't acknowledged his ancestors or avenged his father's injustice was that his position in the Du Yu Camp was too low and he didn't have access to more secrets. He also didn't know who the trusted aide of the Liyang Crown Princess and the Turk Du Camp's subordinate who had been lurking in the border army of Jinzhou were.
A few days ago, after learning that Fu Sheng was actually a member of the Turkic royal family, Fu Tu had thought that he could use his relationship with Fu Sheng to obtain a high position in the Turks and find out the truth.
He hadn't expected that not long after, four experts from the Turkic royal family would arrive and bring Fu Sheng back to the Turks.
After Fu Sheng had left, Fu Tu had informed the Yi Spy Division of the Jinzhou Border Army of the secret that Santai Martial Manor was a hidden location of the Turk Duyu Camp in Xu Xiao's name.
He wanted to use his identity as an excuse to return to the Turks and to Fu Province. But on his way back to the Turks, he found Fu Sheng unconscious in the pine forest.
If he killed Fu Sheng now, would he be able to prove his father's innocence? He truly did not want to return to the Turks and stain his hands with the blood of his compatriots from Liyang.
However, Fu Sheng and he were friends who lived and died. He had saved his life before, and he had saved his life more than once. When he was training in the Du Yu Camp, that period of purgatory was because Fu Sheng and he had relied on each other and helped each other to survive together.
For so many years, he had treated her as his biological older brother, but she had also treated him as her biological younger brother.
On one side was loyalty and filial piety, on the other side was kindness and righteousness. He wanted to kill but could not kill, wanted to keep but could not keep. The most difficult choice in life was this.
Just as Fu Tu was swinging the two blades in his hands, a blue light suddenly shot out from between Fu Sheng's eyebrows. At first, the blue light was only the size of a grain of rice. Then, it expanded with the wind and turned into a small blue dragon the size of a tassel.
The little blue dragon hovered above Fu Sheng's head for the time it took for half an incense stick to burn. Then, it went back into Fu Sheng's body from his chest.
Then, Fu Sheng's entire body burst out with a dazzling blue light, blinding Fu Tu so much that he couldn't open his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, the blue light and the dragon had disappeared, and Fu Sheng had woken up and stood up.
He saw Fu Tu holding the two sabers with his right hand, his eyes red and his breathing rapid. Fu Sheng understood that Fu Tu wanted to kill him.
'I didn't expect this day to come so early.'In fact, Fu Sheng had long since known Fu Tu's true identity. When the two of them were training in the Turkic Duyu Camp, they had once been surrounded by wolves in Wuzhang Plains and had escaped into a stone house. At that time, Fu Sheng had been unconscious and the door had been in disrepair for many years. Fu Tu could have left Fu Sheng behind and let him cook for the wolves before running away. However, he had chosen to guard the door and fight the wolves alone.
Fortunately, a group of Turkic cavalry 'coincidentally' passed by the stone house in Wuzhang Plains and saved them. At that time, Fu Tu thought that Fu Sheng was still unconscious, and at the critical moment, he used the Teng family's family spear technique, Tiger Cage Spear. Coincidentally, Fu Sheng, who had fallen into a coma after waking up, saw it.
Fu Tu's family spear technique was very famous in Liyang and the Turks. The Teng family had relied on this set of family heirloom, the Tiger Cage Spear, to fight in the world and become famous. They were conferred the title of a martial aristocratic family by Liyang.
As the fifth prince of the Turks, Fu Sheng knew that a Teng Clan disciple had used a 'self-inflicting trick' to spy on the Turks, but in the end, his entire clan had been killed, leaving only a twelve-year-old child behind.
Province Fu recognized Fu Tu's spear technique and guessed his identity, but he didn't tell anyone.
Normally, web novels would have a protagonist who represented justice and a supporting character who represented evil. However, other than a few heinous crimes, how could there be so much evil?
When I wrote the Pale of the King of Beiliang, I wanted to set up the characters. I couldn't write them based on simple good and evil. He had to write based on his desires, emotions, likes and dislikes, the influence of his environment, and his life experiences.
This was much more difficult than writing based on good and evil, but the characters written would also be more good-looking and durable. Take Fu Tu for example. You said that he was a good person, but before he left Du Yu Camp and went to Li Yang to hide, he killed fifty Li Yang people as a pledge of allegiance. When he arrived at Liyang, he would definitely do something to let Liyang down. Can you say that he is a good person? However, the reason for all this was that his father and mother had been betrayed by their own people when they were undercover Turks in Liyang. His entire family had been killed. Was he a bad person to avenge his parents? Fu Tu's final ending had already been written in the character's settings. Furthermore, if there were no major accidents, it would not be changed. But in the end, whether from the perspective of the Turks or from the perspective of Liyang, I couldn't tell whether Fu Tu was good or bad. I hope that all the readers who pay attention to "The Prelude to the Prince of Beiliang" can give me an answer after seeing Fu Tu's ending.
This was because Fu Sheng had always been disliked by his father, the Turkic Khan, and had been ostracized and isolated by his other brothers and sisters.
In his heart, he really regarded Fu Tu as his only family.
Moreover, when he was very young in Province Fu, he had a very, very big plan in his heart. He needed a talented person who he could completely trust to help him complete the grand plan that no one had ever completed since ancient times.
Many years later, the 'two brothers' of Province Fu and Fu Tu still remembered that they had a conversation in the pine forest of Liangting Mountain in Yi County, Jinzhou, Liyang, many years ago.
Fu Sheng told Fu Tu that he had long known that Fu Tu was a descendant of the Teng Family.
He also told Fu Tu that although Fu Tu wanted to kill him, he didn't do it, so they were still brothers.
Fu Sheng also told him that after returning to the Turks, Fu Sheng would become the leader of all the Han officials and generals of the Turks, and that he would also have the support of the three great teachers, Zhang Jiao and his brothers.
He would help Fu Tu find out the truth about Fu Tu's father. He would also help Fu Tu find the people of Liyang and the Turks who betrayed his father. He would let Fu Tu kill his enemies.
The Central Plains and the grasslands were one family. No one knew when, but under the pen of those great scholars and famous officials, the grasslands had become synonymous with eating raw meat and drinking blood. Then, they kicked the grasslands out of the territory of the Central Plains, making the grasslands, which were originally a part of the Central Plains, become what they called outsiders.
He would make Fu Tu a true Han again, because he, Fu Province, not only wanted to be the master of the grasslands, but also the master of the Central Plains. Whether it was the Turks or the Han, they would all become the people of a country under his rule.
In the end, Futu first used the Turkic alliance ceremony,'Breaking Hair Oath,' to worship Fu Sheng as the wolf lord.
He also used the Central Plains 'alliance ceremony of' swearing blood as an alliance 'to worship Fu Province as the leader.
In the end, he used the Teng family's ceremony of 'planting grass as incense' to form a brotherly alliance with Ashina Helu Xi, the fifth prince of the Turks.
A hundred miles away from the border of Liyang, Zhang Liang finally broke through Qi Xuanzhen's sword formation that had trapped him.
For seven days, he did not sleep or rest to comprehend the mysteries of the Sword Qi. Qi Xuanzhen was indeed powerful. He was indeed ranked first on the top ten of the Heaven List. Just a few Sword Qi on his chopsticks had helped Zhang Liang improve his attainments in the Peace Sutra by a big step.
At the same time, he had waited for the Fifth Prince Fu Sheng, who was escorting him back to the Turks.
However, what he did not expect was that the four experts he had sent to meet Fu Province had all died in Liyang. There was only one person by Province Fu's side, Du Yuying's little tooth called Fu Tu.
"Ashina Helu greets Great Brave Warrior.”Fu Sheng bowed deeply to Zhang Liang and bowed deeply.
"Fifth Prince, you've made a mistake. I am Zhang Liang, and I take orders from the Great Khan's tent. I am a Great Forging Master and am in charge of supervising the manufacture of armaments.”Zhang Liang said expressionlessly.
"I know. I also know that in the Turkic army, in terms of martial arts and tactics, the cavalry commander Abao Ji is no match for you. In terms of strategy, he was even above the infantry commander Han Derang. Within a hundred years, you will be the only one qualified to command the Turks.”Fu Sheng said respectfully.
"What about after a hundred years?" Zhang Liang was still expressionless.
"A mediocre man once said to the Khan, Great virtuous teacher, great casting master, grand governor, three brothers, want to occupy the high position of Turkic, in order to seek personal gain. What was laughable was that the mediocre person didn't know that the three venerables cultivated the Heavenly Book of Peace and were seeking to become immortals and ascend. How could they be reluctant to stay in the human world? A hundred years later, if the three venerables ascend to become immortals, there will be venerable golden bodies, state capitals, and venerable temples within a hundred miles of my territory. The ministers under my jurisdiction, from the royal officials to the dignitaries, down to the common people, women and children, must have shrines and statues of the Venerable One in their houses to worship the Venerable One with sincere incense.”Province Fu didn't mention the Turks, but the territory and subjects he could rule in the future. This was a naked exchange of interests.
"What if he hasn't ascended?" Zhang Liang had a smile on his face.
"Gather the power of the entire country and worship the three venerables until the three venerables ascend.”Fu Sheng put the three fingers of his left hand together and raised them three feet above his head to inscribe the oath.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your promise today. I, Zhang Liang, will definitely repay you." Zhang Liang's face was full of smiles. In his words, he had changed the previous 'I' to 'court'. He had also changed the way he addressed Province Fu from the Fifth Prince to a more cordial and respectful' Your Highness'.
"Thank you, Venerable One. I'm just a destitute person who has just returned from Liyang. One had no soldiers, two had no real power. Other than the favor of the three Venerables, one only had a sworn brother in need by his side. "How dare I accept such a great gift from the Venerable One?" Fu Shengcheng hurriedly supported Zhang Liang, who was about to bow to him.
"There will be." Zhang Liang and Fu Sheng stood side by side and said proudly.
"Yes, there will be." Fu Sheng once again bowed to Zhang Liang.
When Fu Sheng stood up, Zhang Liang saw the morning sun reflected in his eyes, like a burning flame.
What kind of magnificent scene would this ball of flame burn on the prairie? Zhang Liang was looking forward to it.
A hundred years ago, there were originally twelve countries in the world, corresponding to the twelve earthly branches of Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai.
The Yilan Empire was one of the 12 countries, and it was also the leader of the other 11 countries.
At that time, in the entire world, only the King of Yilan could be called the Sovereign Lord, the Emperor, and His Majesty.
Only the ruler of the Yilan Empire can call himself 'Zhen'.
Like Liyang, Xichu, Xishu...。。。The rulers of these countries could only call themselves 'kings'.
Later on, the Ilan Empire experienced three huge natural disasters. The earth dragon flipped over, the dragon king flipped over the sea, and the tribulation fire descended from the sky.
Then, the Turks took advantage of the situation and raised the thirty-six emperors of Yilan. They declared their crimes to the world and fought against them. In the end, they destroyed the Yilan Empire.
In truth, in the battle to destroy the Yilan Empire, the Turks had only been pushed to the front of the stage as pawns.
The ones hiding behind the scenes were the other ten countries.
The Western Chu made plans, the Li Yang made money, the Northern Wei cast iron, the Western Shu rolled wood, the Eastern Yue beat stones, the Southern Tang released grain, the Northern Wei sent horses, the Western Han made medicines, the Great Sui made armor, and the Turks sent troops.
In the end, the ten countries had been too clever, and the war to destroy their countries had instead helped the Turks.
The Turks were able to dominate the steppe and dominate the world only because of the wealth the old Turkic Khan had passed down a hundred years ago. Seven out of ten of them came from the ten countries that had offered aid to the Turks in order to destroy the Yilan Empire.
The most laughable thing was that the rulers of the ten countries from a hundred years ago had been hiding behind the scenes from the beginning to the end. All the written records of the Ilan Empire in the history books and folk books of the ten countries had been destroyed. He didn't leave any records about the Yilan Empire.
Instead, he had exterminated the Turkic royal family of the Yilan Empire and adopted the orphan of the imperial family.
In addition, the history of the Turkic state clearly recorded the rise and fall of the Yilan Empire. However, in order to preserve the reputation of the other ten kingdoms, the Turkic records had referred to the Yilan Empire as the Yilan Ancient Kingdom.
Fu Sheng was the son of Ashina Yugu, the Great Turkic Khan, and the last daughter of the imperial bloodline of the Yilan Empire.
The Yilan Emperor's divine beast was the Blue Sky Dragon. The Liyang Golden Dragon in the Liyang Emperor's Map of Mountains and Rivers had devoured the Turkic wolf in Fu Sheng's body, but it was a blessing in disguise that the Yilan Dragon Soul in his body was awakened.
A hundred years ago, it was the Emperor of Liyang who planned the alliance to wipe out Yilan.
A hundred years later, it was the Emperor of Liyang who activated the dragon soul of the divine beast that had been sleeping for a hundred years.
Fortune and misfortune are impermanent, but cause and effect are determined early.
(In order to give readers a simple and comfortable reading experience, and to ensure that the number of words isn't too long, in the future, unless the plot requires it, all other scenes and environments will use the name Fu Province.) The author wasn't lazy, so he set up a shortcut. He only needed to press two or three keys to type these five words.）
