Hubei is an important north-south thoroughfare, with a developed economy and prosperous commerce. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info The people's wisdom is more developed, and the atmosphere is more enlightened. Zhang Zhidong supports change and has a more rational acceptance and recognition of the advanced development concept of the West. These are all incomparable advantages of Lanzhou. At this point, Tan Zhonglin and his father have been on the border for a long time, because they hated and hated the banditry of foreigners, and they were paranoid and denied foreign affairs, and their thinking was much more outdated than Zhang Zhidong. And Tan Sitong understands that foreigners have a lot to learn from themselves, and Zhang Zhidongyang's governing philosophy for China is obviously more beneficial to the country. Therefore, he believes that Hubei will have a broader world. Maybe there, I can really make some achievements and find a new way of reform of the law. This gave him a lot of hope and confidence for the future.

After the official handover and packing the luggage, the family began to set off for Hubei. Xin Wu rode the leopard and went away alone, and the two dragons loyally stayed by Tan Sitong's side.

Seeing that Xin Wu is also old, he has matured a lot in the past few years, and he has left Hunan for a long time, Tan Sitong discussed with his father and decided to send Xin Wu back to Hunan to see his master. Then it is up to him to decide whether to stay in the mountains and be filial to his master or continue to roam the rivers and lakes. Xiangxi is very close to Sichuan, and Tan Sitong wants to go to the Elders' Club more. Such a large civilian armed force, well guided, is a vital force that can change the fate of the country, and if it is allowed to be used by bad people with ill intentions like the Japanese, it will cause endless trouble.

Today's Tan Sitong is no longer the angry young man who studied everywhere two or three years ago. Most of the elites of the dynasty have exchanged and worked together, and they have a better understanding of the country's malpractices and corruption. He is already a handsome man who has a heart and a valley, strategizes, and wants to guide the country.

At the moment, the father and son broke up in Xiangyang, Tan Jixun took Li Yan and his family to Wuhan to take up his post, and Tan Sitong took Xin Wulong Er to Jingzhou to the south.

On this day, the three of them stayed in Jingzhou. Tan Sitong remembered that it was that year that he originally went to Lanzhou to visit his father, but on a whim, he went from Jingzhou to Shennongjia to visit Master Wanyun, which led to all kinds of experiences in the future, and he naturally felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

If it weren't for the shocking change in Jinglian Temple, would he have anything to do with Hongmen? All kinds of signs show that he has obviously been inextricably involved with Hongmen since he was a child. It seems that the cause is determined, just waiting for the time to come. Zhang Zongyu and Zuo Zongtang's two sworn enemies died in front of their eyes one after another, this is also the destiny of the underworld?

These two people are the most intelligent people in the world, and they have both shaken the world in the past. The two are enemies of each other, but their ideals and ambitions are strikingly similar, and they are both favored by themselves and regarded as heirs of the mantle. Zhang Zongyu is a candidate for the Hongmen military division like himself, and Zuo Zongtang, as the orthodox inheritor of Huxiang culture, also hopes to become the heir of the Huxiang lineage. This is the opposite of each other, but I can also accept the ideas of two different mortal enemies. It doesn't seem to contradict each other. The avenues of the world are really the same way.

Zhang Zhidong and Kang Youwei's reformist ideas may not be able to eradicate this rotten and extremely weak society. But Yuan Shikai and Sun Wen are clearly a different kind of people, they are more radical and more dangerous. He has the talent to see everything and the ambition to covet the world. But can the world withstand their toss? Will this be the continuation of Zhang Zongyu and Zuo Zongtang? One revolt, one repression. They all want to be for the long-term peace and stability of this country, but they don't have the right medicine. Is there no cure? Can you trust the little boy in the Forbidden City?

Tan Si was bored in his heart, and walked to the street alone to relax. Jingzhou City has been an important military town since ancient times, and it is a place where soldiers must fight. It is a water that connects east and west, and a mountain that shakes north and south. Jingshan is like a lock and key blocking the north-south official road, and the Yangtze River breaks through the city, rolling from west to east. The story of Guan Yunchang, the ancestor who is worshiped by everyone on the rivers and lakes, went to the meeting with a single knife took place here. In history, there is also a god-man who single-handedly changed the fate of the country, and he was also born here. This person is Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty was also a young and suspicious country, with internal and external troubles. After Zhang Ju was in power, he insisted on switching and trading with the Tatars, and exchanged what he had and what he had, so he reconciled with the northern barbarians and made a truce in exchange for decades of peace on the border. This is a decision that requires great wisdom and courage. The situation today is very similar to that time, the world powers have bullied us, but in addition to the wolf ambitions of Japan and Tsarist Russia, they also covet our land, and the other Western powers also want trade and trade, and if they can reach a fair trade agreement with other countries, they can still live in peace with many countries. Zhang Zhidong was appointed by foreigners in the south to be in charge of customs. The fairness and rigor of foreigners have created stronger benefits for the country than in other parts of the country.

Therefore, closing the country and closing the country cannot solve the problem at all, hundreds of years ago, Zhang Juzheng's reconciliation and truce was a method. His whip law reformed taxation and cut redundancy, filling the empty treasury of the Ming Dynasty and streamlining the vast bureaucracy. It was these reforms that saved the Ming Dynasty, which was in danger at the time. Now it is time for the country to survive, and only reform can save the country. But who is Zhang Juzheng? Does his set still work?

Tan Sitong thought and walked slowly to the Yangtze River. Seeing the sunset on the river like blood, the long river that crossed the city was like a sleeping beast, and the waves were not alarmed. A bleak scene. 'The deceased is like this, and he does not give up day and night. 'The desolation and hardship of the world, the rivers and the earth do not care. The fate of mankind can only be saved by itself. Thinking that the famous Guandi Temple is on the riverside in the distance, there are often temple fairs there, and it is very lively, so I have the heart to take a look.

Walking around, I looked up for a moment and saw that there was a big temple in the distance, and it was the Guandi Temple. The beliefs of Chinese are very different from those of foreigners, and Confucius said: "If you don't know life, you don't know death." "So the Chinese don't believe in an illusory God, they don't believe in Jesus, they don't believe in Allah. Even when Buddhism came to the Han Dynasty, it also became Zen Buddhism with a strong national quintessence. Chinese respect saints and sages. Therefore, Confucius, who taught without class, became the teacher of all saints. The invisible Lao Tzu of the avenue became the ancestor of Taoism. The loyal and benevolent Guan Erye became a martial saint. Chinese worship people who cultivate themselves as gods.

Go to the temple gate, see the gate couplet on the writing 'pass the general, go to the meeting with a single knife, God will shock China', and the lower link is 'green lantern view of history, worship the emperor of the gods, Kyushu service Guan Gong'. Guan Yun sent his sister-in-law for thousands of miles, passed five passes and cut six generals, went to Jiangdong alone to deter Lu Su with a green dragon glaive knife, read the spring and autumn period at night under the moon, and was crowned a martial saint after his death. The couplet clearly stated the merits of Guan Yunchang's life and the fame behind him. It's just that why didn't he go to Maicheng, Tan Sitong secretly thought, Chinese like to hide for His Holiness, maybe that's what it means.

Tan Sitong was about to go in to pay a stick of incense, and suddenly felt abnormal. It was already dusk, and the temple fair might have dispersed, but this was the time when the fisherman returned late and the Taoist priest had an evening class. But there was not a single fishing boat on the river, there was not a single pedestrian on the embankment, and the temple was silent.

There was an ambush, and Tan Sitong suddenly woke up. When I first arrived, who would know my whereabouts? Who would have the heart to set up an ambush here? But it's too late to think about it at this time. When I was about to leave, I heard the dark weapon whistling. But I saw that this hidden weapon was like a copper cymbal, like two semi-circles clasped, and the edge of the middle protrusion was extremely sharp, and the hand could not catch it, and the speed was extremely fast, and it came straight to his head. Tan Sitong dodged sideways, avoiding this thing. But the thing seemed to have eyes, and in a whirlwind, it turned back and struck the back of the head. It's like a posture of not taking a head.

It was the first time Tan Sitong had seen such a strange hidden weapon, so he didn't dare to hold it up, so he took out the seven-star sword and slashed down at the hidden weapon. The sound of Zheng, the seven-star sword that sharpened iron like mud couldn't hurt that thing in the slightest. was hit by the sword body, and the hidden weapon was not damaged, but it touched the mechanism, and Huo's cracked a big mouth from the middle. A puff of tiny poisonous needles shot out, the distance was close, this poisonous needle was extremely fast, ordinary people were afraid that they would no longer be able to avoid this second mechanism. Rao is Tan Sitong's martial arts are extremely high, and he can only roll on the spot to avoid the poisonous needle.

Seeing that the spherical hidden weapon had also fallen to the ground, the crack was like a wide blood basin mouth facing him, and seeing that thing really had a row of sharp teeth, I was afraid that if the head was covered by that thing, the neck would be bitten off by Qi Gen. When I wanted to take a closer look, I saw a flower in front of me, and the thing had flown away.

Why haven't you heard of such a vicious and ingenious secret weapon? Tan Sitong couldn't be allowed to think about it, many people rushed out of the temple, and they had already surrounded him. Tan Sitong is quick thinking, and he has counted twelve people. I saw that everyone was carrying a strange secret weapon in their hands. After thinking about it for a while, I already understood that the thing was controlled by a small chain, and it was all skillfully controlled by the whirlwind, although it was exquisite, it was not a monster with eyes.

I figured it out, and there was no panic. Tan Sitong held the seven-star sword in his right hand, pulled out Zhan Lu from behind his back with his left hand, and stood still like a mountain in one hand, just waiting for the enemy to attack.

Twelve strange balls flew over like nets, sealing Tan Sitong's way out. I saw him shout angrily, his body rose into the air, and he pulled up three feet on the ground, and in mid-air, a harrier turned over, like an eagle circling, and his body flew in a circle like a swallow, and the Zhan Lu sword in his hand waved, and he heard a sharp sound, and the spherical hidden weapons fell one after another.

Tan Sitong couldn't slash the hidden weapon, but he cut off the chain that controlled it. Zhan Lu is dark all over, is cast of dark iron, according to legend, the dark iron is a meteorite outside the world, rare in the world, the weapons built are indestructible, to cut some small chains natural Sheila usual. In fact, the hidden weapon chain is naturally a very tough thing, but when it encounters this second-ranked heirloom sword, it still can't stop the edge.

Without traction, those seemingly terrifying hidden weapons are just a pile of scrap metal. Tumbling to the ground, colliding with each other, the poisonous needles ejected one after another, but without the strength of the head, they could no longer hurt Tan Sitong.

Seeing that Tan Si broke the invincible unique secret weapon with the same move, the twelve people were also frightened. But the master's order was to kill this man, and these dead soldiers would not dare to disobey. They all drew their weapons and besieged them.

Tan Si has become a cultivator of the two internal skills of flame and ice, and has been integrated, his seven-star sword urges the flame of the Yang Divine Skill, and Zhan Lu urges the Yin Inner Gong to the cold ice, one sword is like fire, one sword is like ice, and the twelve people are fighting together, but it seems to be a wolf into the flock.

The identities of these twelve people are mysterious, but they are by no means ordinary people, they are all first-class masters in the world. If it was a year ago, Tan Sitong would not be an opponent if he picked one out. It's just that martial arts requires hard training, talent, and adventures with famous teachers. Tan Sitong just took it all. Both of his swords are peerless swords, and the weapons are all cracked and blocked. And the internal force is domineering and weird, one side is like a raging fire, scorching and pressing, but when there is contact, the whole body is like a blazing fire, and the blood is churning. On the other hand, it is like a thousand years of ice, frozen into the bone marrow, and if it is hit, the body immediately freezes, like entering an ice cellar. Twelve people only had a few rounds, and the people who had been killed by Tan Si turned on their backs and could no longer fight.

Tan Sitong is kind-hearted, not a murderous person, and seeing that everyone has no combat effectiveness, he stopped and waited to ask about the origin of these people.

When the assassins saw that Tan Sitong wanted to extract a confession, they did not run away, so they looked at each other, only to see that the corners of the twelve people were crooked, foaming at the mouth, and they committed suicide together.
