Chapter 205: The Ming Dynasty is over

Emperor Zhengde's method of punishing rebellious ministers and thieves was extremely ruthless, but for meritorious officials, his rewards were also unstingy.

For example, Cao Zhengchun, he was generously rewarded by Emperor Zhengde for his meritorious service in quelling the rebellion.

Back in the day, when Zhou Chen had just taken over as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Cao Zhengchun had always been extremely enthusiastic about the python robe given to him by Emperor Zhengde.

But from today onwards, Cao Zhengchun doesn't have to continue to envy Zhou Chen, because he also got a python robe from the royal gift.

Not only that, Cao Zhengchun's official position was also raised by Emperor Zhengde because of this.

Although Cao Zhengchun has been in charge of the East Factory for a while, his position in the Great Inner Division is only a pen-based eunuch, and there is a palm print on Cao Zhengchun's top eunuch.

The previous palm print eunuch was Wang Yue, the old man of the Hongzhi Dynasty, and Emperor Zhengde never replaced Wang Yue because of his old feelings.

Now Cao Zhengchun is rewarded for his great achievements, and Emperor Zhengde has made Cao Zhengchun ascend to the position of the eunuch who holds the seal.

However, Emperor Zhengde did not treat the old man Wang Yue badly, but promoted him to the position of the chief eunuch and eunuch, nominally the head of all the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, but he did not have much power.

Emperor Zhengde did this, all of which should be to raise the old people in front of his father and the emperor to support the elderly.

So far, Cao Zhengchun has become the first powerful person among the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty.

Cao Zhengchun has received such a major reward, and Zhou Chen, who has made greater contributions to this counterinsurgency, is naturally even more respected by Emperor Zhengde.

I don't know where Emperor Zhengde heard what Zhou Chen said to Zhu Wuzhi before, and he really gave Zhou Chen the title of a loyal marquis.

Of course, this is just Emperor Zhengde's reward for Zhou Chen, this title cannot be hereditary, and it cannot reach the point of sealing his wife and son. ζ‰‹ζœΊη«― δΈ€η§’θ¨˜δ½γ€Žβ†’m.\B\iq\u\g\\o\m』 provides you with wonderful \ novel reading.

In addition, Emperor Zhengde also promoted Zhou Chen's rank and official position by several levels, from the original commander of the Jinyi Guard, to the governor of the Five Armies, and he was actually a member of the Zhengyipin.

It can be said that Cao Zhengchun and Dongchang have borne countless notoriety, and after overthrowing the original governor of the five armies, the benefits are all cheaper than Zhou Chen alone.

It stands to reason that after Zhou Chen received such a huge reward, he should be very active in the court.

However, on the contrary, except for the day when he was promoted to the knighthood, Zhou Chen, the newly promoted governor, never showed his face in the court again.

Even the affairs of the Jinyi Guard, Zhou Chen no longer took care of it personally, but instead raised the Badao to the position of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and the Badao controlled all the affairs of the Jinyi Guard.

If it weren't for Emperor Zhengde's personal summons, Zhou Chen would have stayed almost all of his days in his newly built Hou Ye Mansion.

He lives in a simple place and never asks about anything above the court.

The reason why Zhou Chen acted like this was because he was adapting to the changes brought to him by the vast star map.

As early as when Zhou Chen completely suppressed Zhu Ignorance, the scroll of star map treasures in the depths of his sea gave him a hint of abnormality.

When Zhou Chen came down to check the star map in his spare time, he was pleasantly surprised to find that several stars in the star map were completely blooming with brilliant starlight.

This undoubtedly meant that Zhou Chen's own Qi Luck was deep enough to support him to leave this world and go to another world.

However, Zhou Chen didn't take any action directly, because he returned under the careful observation, and the power of the stars that was condensed and transformed by the star map was still trickling and increasing.

Especially after Zhou Chen was promoted to the rank of Emperor Zhengde, the luck of the Ming Dynasty gathered around him was undoubtedly more and more high.

In addition, Zhou Chen still had some things that had not been arranged, so he did not directly use the star map treasure at the first time, but waited quietly in a deep and simple manner.

At the same time, Zhou Chen also arranged all kinds of matters after he left.

The reason why Badao followed him back then was because he was tired of fighting and killing in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, and wanted to run for a good future.

Therefore, Zhou Chen played Emperor Zhengde and pushed the Badao to the position of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and became the real power of the three products of the court, which undoubtedly made the Badao's heart extremely satisfied.

As for the ancient three links, the guest Qing recruited by Zhou Chen, their family of three was arranged by Zhou Chen to return to the Longmen Dart Bureau.

After more than ten years of dark imprisonment, although Gu Santong still has no change in his enthusiasm for martial arts, he will not be as belligerent as he was more than ten years ago.

Especially after finding his wife and children, Gu Santong is full of desire to live an ordinary life.

So after solving Zhu's ignorance, Zhou Chen introduced Gu Santong to the Tong family of the Longmen Dart Bureau as a guest secretary.

In normal times, he doesn't need to pay attention to all the mundane affairs of the Longmen Dart Bureau, as long as it is enough to ensure the safety of the Tong family.

In this way, Gu Santong's son Cheng Cheng will definitely take great care of the Tong family for the sake of incense, which is enough to ensure that the Tong family will be worry-free within a hundred years.

As for what will happen to the Tong family a hundred years later, it has nothing to do with Zhou Chen, everything depends on whether they are competitive or not.

After arranging the corresponding matters, Zhou Chen quietly waited for this star map to transform all the blessings on his body into the power of the stars.

As time passed, Zhou Chen found that the power of the stars gathered in the star map was indeed increasing.

However, there are no other stars lit up on the star map, and they are still the stars on the periphery, but the luster on them is getting brighter and brighter.

Anyway, when the stars on the star map were lit up, Zhou Chen would be able to use the power of the vast star map.

Now that the power of these stars has exceeded the standard of using the star map, Zhou Chen simply began to cultivate with the help of the power of those stars.

When Zhou Chen first came to the Ming Dynasty, he quenched his body because of the power of the overflowing stars, thus forming the innate physique of the twelve righteous and all the serious, so that he could directly condense the innate true qi from the beginning.

However, the remaining eight veins of the Qi Jing are in a state of blockage.

Over the years, Zhou Chen himself has also penetrated the four strange scriptures of the Wei Pulse and the Seesaw Pulse.

As for the remaining pulsing veins, belt veins, and the last Rendu second vein, so as to open up the bridge between heaven and earth and connect heaven and earth, then I am afraid that every more than ten years of water grinding work will not be completed at all.

At the moment, the power of the stars transformed by this star map happened to be a little surplus, so Zhou Chen mobilized the power of these stars and began to refine his physique and penetrate his meridians.

Of course, Zhou Chen is not sitting and practicing penance every day, and he will also go out for a walk in his spare time.

Zhou Chen's most frequented place is Wenyuan Pavilion, which is the place where the Ming Imperial Library is located, and there are tens of thousands of rare books in it.

Zhou Chen even specially invited the gold medal from Emperor Zhengde, and even the golden stone room in the Wenyuan Pavilion was able to enter and exit it unimpeded.

Thinking back to when he was in high school, Zhou Chen had the idea of going to Hanlin Academy to repair books.

It's just that most of the books stored in the library of the Hanlin Academy are subsets of those scriptures and histories, which cannot be said to be useless for the martial arts he practiced, but the effect is definitely not strong.

For example, the Taoist collections compiled by the previous dynasties and so on, these secret books will not be put in the Hanlin Courtyard at all, almost all of them are stored in the Wenyuan Pavilion, and the more precious ones are included in the Jinkui Stone Room.

With Zhou Chen's status at the time, if he wanted to get in touch with these Dao Secret Books, he would undoubtedly be dreaming.

Therefore, Zhou Chen finally chose to leave Beijing and go out, grasp the real power and gather luck.

Now that Zhou Chen has the strength, and at the same time has the opportunity to read those Dao Treasure Secret Books, he naturally will not miss this opportunity.

In this way, more than half a year has passed in an instant, and Zhou Chen has already penetrated the eight veins of the strange meridians around him through the power of the stars.

It stands to reason that the bridge between heaven and earth has been opened, and it is natural that you can connect heaven and earth through the Zhou Tian cycle, so as to step into the realm of martial arts masters.

It's a pity that no matter what Zhou Chen does, even if his own star true qi has been running countless Zhou Tian cycles, he can't build the slightest connection with heaven and earth.

This made Zhou Chen can't help but think of the legend in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes.

It is rumored that in order to protect the eternal existence of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, asked Mr. Qingtian Liu Bowen to cut off all the dragon veins in the Central Plains, so as to prevent the dragon veins from giving birth to other emperors.

Since then, there have been flaws between heaven and earth, and martial arts masters have achieved great success.

Although Zhou Chen couldn't figure out how he, Liu Bowen, in this martial arts where martial arts masters were all legends, did such a mythical thing as cutting off the dragon vein.

But there was one thing he knew very well, and that was that it was time for him to leave this world.

If not, his cultivation realm may not be able to advance an inch in his life.

Immediately, Zhou Chen did not hesitate for a moment, he directly urged the power of the stars to hook up the brightest star on the star map, and broke through the boundary and left.
