Emei faction.

Exterminator is practicing swordsmanship. Her swordsmanship at the moment has increased several times more than ten years ago. Her swordsmanship seems to be upright, but in fact, it is murderous and secretive, ruthless and vicious.

A few years ago, Ji Xiaofu followed Yang Xiao and left the Emei faction.

Women are more sensual and not as rational as men. For the sake of love, they can sometimes be desperate, and once they change their minds, they will become ruthless again.

In order to repay the master's kindness, Ji Xiaofu left the notes of Qin Zhiyong's lecture in the Emei faction. The extermination master's swordsmanship can have the current attainments, which is inseparable from the class notes left by Ji Xiaofu.

However, the exterminator did not appreciate it. Not only did she resent Ji Xiaofu and Yang Xiao, but even Qin Zhiyong resented her. If it weren't for Qin Zhiyong, Ji Xiaofu might not have become what he is now, maybe the dragon slaying knife would have arrived.

Who would have thought that Qin Zhiyong would become the imperial court's concubine.

The exterminator felt that Qin Zhiyong was self-inflicted and could not live. No matter how powerful your surname is Qin, it is impossible to be the enemy of the entire Jianghu Martial Arts.

"Qin Zhiyong is an eagle dog of the imperial court, mutilating fellow martial artists."

This rumor was first released by the exterminator.

As time passed, rumors continued to brew, and the vast majority of people in the rivers and lakes believed this rumor. Many people also secretly speculated, thinking that Qin Zhiyong must have dedicated the dragon slaying knife to the imperial court and made a nomination before being reused by the emperor and becoming a court prince.

Even within the Haisha Sect, there are some people who wonder if Mr. Qin has really betrayed and become a court eagle dog?

I have to say that rumors are really powerful.

Throw plenty of dirt and some will be sure to stick.

When rumors are spread for a long time, more people will believe, and rumors can become true. Qin Zhiyong was indeed pushed to the opposite side of martial arts.

The exterminator is still planning to unite the six major sects of the Central Plains and prepare to assassinate Qin Zhiyong. No matter how high Qin Zhiyong's martial arts are, after all, two fists are difficult to defeat four hands, as long as the strength of the entire martial arts is united, there are many people and the plan is appropriate, it may not be impossible to assassinate him.

However, before assassinating Qin Zhiyong, he had to prepare a gift and go to Wudang Mountain to celebrate Zhang Zhenren's birthday.

In a few months, it will be Zhang Zhenren's 100th birthday.

Zhu Yuanzhang relied on his own ability to sit in the position of the master of the Ming Sect, and received Liu Bowen's sincere assistance.

The altar master is only a middle level in the Ming Sect, and there are five elements banner masters above the altar masters, as well as the guardian kings, as well as the left and right light messengers and sect masters.

Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't know martial arts, and being able to become the altar master himself is enough to show his ability and personality charm.

"Altar master, Mr. Liu has sent the weapon." One of his men came down to report.

Zhu Yuanzhang said happily: "Okay." Let's go and meet Mr. Liu. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang took a few henchmen and met Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen was wearing a linen gown, holding a feather fan in his hand, and smiling.

"Sir, you're here at last." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Liu Bowen said: "The five thousand spear heads you want have been forged. I sent it to my lord. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang lifted the oilcloth on the carriage, picked up a sharp cold iron spear head from the wooden box, and nodded: "Good gun." Thank you sir. With this batch of spearheads, we will be able to have five thousand more spears. Sir, please come to the house, I will let the kitchen prepare wine and food, and wash the dust for Mr. ”

Liu Bowen said: "Just make two dishes." Now we spend money like running water, and if we can save, we will save. ”

Raising an army is too expensive, and it is simply a bottomless pit. The silver earned by the Haisha Sect was a little unsustainable. This is still Zhu Yuanzhang's command, and there are only 6,000 people at present. If there were a few more people, the Haisha Sect would definitely go bankrupt.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked, "Sir, when are we going to start the army?" ”

With troops in his hands, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't contain the thoughts in his heart.

Liu Bowen shook his head and said, "It's not time yet. A year ago, I corresponded with Brother Qin and discussed this issue. He thinks the same as I do, it's too early to start a war. Although the Yuan Dynasty has been corrupted to the bones, it has not exhausted its qi, and the court still has strength. What's more, if the gun shoots the first bird and starts the army too early, it will be counterattacked by the imperial court. Raising troops privately, Mingjiao is afraid that he will not let us go. ”

The first person to come out is great, but he often can't make it.

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang are examples.

In Qin Zhiyong's letter to Liu Bowen, he suggested that it should be developed secretly and establish more base areas. When the time comes, once it breaks out, the rebel army must at least completely control the territory south of the Yangtze River.

With the shade of the big tree of Mingjiao, coupled with the assistance of Liu Bowen, Zhu Yuanzhang's development is very smooth. Competing for the world is actually competing for the hearts and minds of the people, and we are afraid of quick success.

The army was raised too early, even if Zhu Yuanzhang has laid some territory now, there are not so many talents to govern it for the time being. Liu Bowen has changed Qin Zhiyong's school into "Minglun Hall", and the school has expanded several times. However, the talents cultivated are still not enough.

Ten years of trees, 100 years of people.

Ten years is really short for cultivating talents.

Zhu Yuanzhang had heard of Qin Zhiyong for a long time. For this Mr. Qin, who secretly funded himself, Zhu Yuanzhang had an indescribable feeling.

Qin Zhiyong, in Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, is too mysterious.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Sir, Mr. Qin is the Taifu of the Great Yuan Imperial Court, do you think he will ......?"

Liu Bowen interrupted Zhu Yuanzhang's words and said, "The lord is talking about rumors on the rivers and lakes, right?" Others may become the eagle dogs of the imperial court, but Brother Qin will definitely not. Brother Qin just went to Dadu ten years ago, and was sniped by the first Mongolian archer, and the emperor and the national teacher are still guarding against him. If it weren't for Brother Qin's decision to negotiate with King Ruyang in Dadu, the Haisha Sect would have been destroyed long ago, and the lord would not have had so much money to train his troops. ”

The emperor, the national teacher, the king of Ruyang and others all set their eyes on Qin Zhiyong.

A strong man like Qin Zhiyong, a fairy-like figure, is as bright as a lighthouse at night, and it is strange that the emperor and the national teacher are not guarding against him. When the eyes of the emperor and the national teacher converged on Qin Zhiyong's body, they would naturally ignore the situation outside the capital.

The Haisha faction funded Zhu Yuanzhang, hoarded grain and grass for him, and forged weapons, but until now it has not been discovered by the imperial court.

Qin Zhiyong and Liu Bowen have made great contributions.

In the ten years of Qin Zhiyong, he sent back five times information of great value. Others can misunderstand and question Qin Zhiyong, but Zhu Yuanzhang definitely cannot. If even Zhu Yuanzhang questioned Qin Zhiyong, it would be too undeserved.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I really don't know when I will be able to meet Mr. Qin?" ”

Liu Bowen said with a smile: "Brother Qin is now the Taifu of the imperial court, and his life is comfortable. We're not in a hurry. The lord wants to see him, and there will be opportunities in the future. ”

……………

Wu-Tang Clan. Zhang Sanfeng sat on the chair, looked at the few disciples under the door, and said, "In a few months, it will be the centennial birthday of the poor Dao." I originally planned to be casual, but the Shaolin Temple, Emei faction, Kongtong faction, Huashan faction, and Kunlun faction all wrote to me, saying that they wanted to come to congratulate the poor Dao on his birthday. It seems that it is not possible to hold a birthday banquet without a big holiday. ”

Song Yuanqiao said happily: "Master's 100th birthday, of course, it should be a big deal. ”

Zhang Sanfeng said: "Since you want to hold a birthday banquet, you can't afford not to invite one person." ”

Yu Lianzhou asked, "I don't know who Master is going to invite?" ”

The rest of the people were also puzzled. The master is a master in the martial arts, and is admired by the entire martial arts. Isn't it an honor for everyone who can come to congratulate Master on his birthday?

Who has such a big face that they want us Wudang to invite in person?

Zhang Sanfeng said: "You all know this person. He is the Taifu of the imperial court. ”

Song Yuanqiao's face changed.

It's Qin Zhiyong!

Song Yuanqiao hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, didn't Mr. Qin take refuge in the imperial court?" He made the eagle dog of the imperial court......"

Zhang Sanfeng shook his head and said: "Yuanqiao, look at things, not just the surface, but the inside." Good and evil do not lie in identity and status, but in people's hearts. Mr. Qin is a righteous man and a gentleman, he is not a person who covets wealth and nobility. He became a court prince, so he naturally has his reasons. ”

Yin Liting stepped forward, hugged his fists and said, "Master, the disciple is willing to go to Dadu to invite Mr. Qin." ”

Now Yin Liting has a beard, and it is much more mature than ten years ago. He has a settled state of mind, not only his hands and feet have healed, but his internal strength and swordsmanship cultivation are already far above those of his brothers and sisters.

It's just that Yin Liting is low-key and has a calm personality, and the Jianghu martial arts don't know that he is already a peerless master.

Zhang Sanfeng nodded and said, "Liting, you are steady, don't panic in case of trouble." It's best for you to take a trip. ”

Yin Liting said: "The disciple will go and prepare now, and go down the mountain early tomorrow morning." ”

Yang Jin followed Yang Xiong and finally arrived in Dadu, looked at the tall city wall, and exclaimed, "Wow, this is Dadu." Dad, you see, the walls are really high. It's much higher than the walls in our county. ”

Yang Xiong glared at Yang Jin: "It's really a kid who has never seen the world." Hurry up and get into town. Let's go to the Taifu Mansion to meet Mr. Qin first. ”
