Chapter 36: The Storm Fills the House (III)

++++++++++++++++++++++++++ the dividing line of the mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings (III).

It has nothing to do with the Taoist sitting, this is news that everyone knows, and it is also the reason why Yuwentong has been stranded in Wudang for half a year. However, Guo Bing'an does not think so. Senior brother Lin Gaoyang turned out to be not the head of Wudang, but belonged to the same Qishan ancestor as him. Guo Bing'an was originally an orphan and was adopted by his ancestors, while his senior brother Lin Gaoyang was the son of a wealthy family, and when he was four years old, he accompanied his grandfather to save the ancestor of Qishan on the way to incense. At that time, the old prince admired his literary talent and martial arts, so he left him in the mansion as a western seat. Qishan Ancestor also intends to accept some good disciples to pass on his skills. Among the disciples of the Guogong Mansion, after a year of consideration, only Lin Gaoyang was selected, and after discussing with the old Guogong, he took him back to Qishan to recuperate. Lin Gaoyang has been in Qishan for ten years, and he has done his best in literary style, and he is already a leader of the Qishan school in martial arts.

In order to increase his experience, the master asked him to return to Beijing to continue his cultivation and at the same time. In Lao Zu's view, there is no achievement if you only learn without practicing. After the fourteen-year-old Lin Gaoyang returned to Beijing, he participated in the selection of the first emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time, and was successfully shortlisted. In the following ten years, he often accompanied the emperor and did not take fame. It took a lot of time to sort out some of the guidelines for governing the country that the ancestors had given him about Qishan. I want to link the suggestions of my predecessors with the current politics of the current dynasty and do something that is truly beneficial to the people.

The first emperor ascended the throne at the age of seventeen, and at that time he was quite ambitious and wanted to do something, but his personality dictated, he was eager for quick success in many things, and many things were unwilling to follow the plan step by step, and did what he wanted, which led to many problems. And he was stubborn and self-serving, he couldn't listen to advice, and when something went wrong, he put the responsibility on his subordinates. At the same time, he is also a very emotional person, since he ascended the throne, after marrying Jiangnan Chen, he often acts righteously, in order to be angry with the queen, he takes the government as a child's play. Fortunately, the Empress Chan and her family are strong enough to control the situation and make up for the shortcomings. Over time, Lin Gaoyang and Zhou Bing were willing to discuss with the queen if they had something. Especially Lin Gaoyang, he felt that the queen was a rare talent, and he was willing to listen to the queen's advice when many major events were arranged, and he had the queen's help when acting, which made the first emperor feel that he had been betrayed and had a dislike for Lin Gaoyang. even made rumors in the palace that Lin Gaoyang had an affair with the queen. Many of the current political measures proposed by Lin Gaoyang were also discussed with Zhou Bing, and the two planned together. With the suspicious personality of the first emperor, even Zhou Bing was suspicious. made the two of them quite chilled and had the idea of going.

At that time, Guo Bing'an had just been ordered by his teacher to go down the mountain, and he entered the imperial examination to assist his senior brother. He will pass the palace test and be the champion of the year. The two brothers have not yet had time to make a difference, and outsiders do not know that these two people are from the same school, but Lin Gaoyang has left a letter to his junior brother, saying that he is extremely disappointed in the emperor, and in order not to damage the queen's reputation, he decided to leave.

Zhou Bing, who is also a companion, is a rather upright person, and Lin Gaoyang sympathizes with each other. Zhou Bing already knew about Xingyang Hou's attack at the border pass. was ready to play, but the first emperor had already had a problem with him and Lin Gaoyang at this time, and was thinking about how to play to win the emperor's trust, and before he could think about it, someone leaked the secret to Xingyang Hou, and Xingyang Hou was ready to make a move. Lin Gaoyang knew about it, so he made a plan to fake his death. made Xingyang Hou think that he had killed both of them at the same time, In fact, Lin Gaoyang, with the assistance of Empress Chen, left the capital with Zhou Bing, leaving the former emperor who had relied on them, but was constantly suspicious of them.

Lin Gaoyang first took Zhou Bing back to Qishan Gate, met the master, and under the master's plan, the two of them traveled in the rivers and lakes for a period of time with the Taoist chief as the apprentice of the first leader of the Wudang faction, a friend of the master. The two of them were deeply liked by the Taoist, and after obtaining the consent of the ancestor of Qishan, Lin Gaoyang's pseudonym had nothing to do with it, and Zhou Bing officially entered Wudang Gate under the pseudonym Wujie. Unrelated and unprecepted have been together for decades, going out and going together.

Since leaving Jingshi, he has never been in contact with his family and friends in the past. From the emperor to the government, they all thought they were dead.

Guo Bing'an didn't know at first, until he accidentally discovered the correspondence between the master and the senior brother last year, and he didn't know that the unrelated Taoist chief was the senior brother, and the queen mother had been in contact with them for so many years. And this Yuwentong is also an irrelevant and unprecepted master, martial arts are the essence of Wudang and Qishan faction, and Wenzhi is due to Lin Gaoyang and Zhou Bing. The Queen Mother admired Lin Gaoyang's current policy strategy back then, so she set up a reason for Fu Xiang to meet Yu Wentong, and he recommended him to be the crown prince. Guo Bing'an couldn't figure out whether Fu Xiang knew Yu Wentong's true background or whether he knew his senior brother, he had tried Fu Xiang several times, but to no avail. Fu Xiang is not the Queen Mother's person, and the Queen Mother will not take the initiative to tell him such a confidential matter, but whether there are other ways to know about it is unknown. He has always been neutral between the DPRK and China, and he has not been able to see clearly whether he is friend or foe over the years.

Since the senior brother and Zhou Bing left the court, Guo Bing'an wanted to quit his career, but the old man insisted that he stay and assist the queen at that time, and now the queen mother. He has gone from being a sixteen-year-old boy to now having gray temples, and after so many years, he has been in the dark, and he feels very lonely. Although he does not have the eloquence of his senior brother, he is also well aware of the master's political essence. But when the first emperor was alive, he could not exert it, after the death of the first emperor, the current emperor lacked courage, and inherited too many shortcomings of the first emperor, even the queen mother was not optimistic that the emperor could effectively implement the new policy. He can only remain obliterated in inaction. Now that the imperial power may change again, he doesn't know if he still has a chance to show his ambitions. He sometimes envied his senior brother, although he did not have fame and fortune, but he could have a pure land and quietly study the writings. Don't struggle with these people you hate every day.

Looking at the despicable appearance of Xingyang Hou in front of him, he really wanted to use Yunyang's divine skills to break his brain and extract his marrow. I didn't have a deep relationship with them at the beginning, and I didn't know much about them, and they only came to him to try to arrange their own people after they assassinated the previous General Yutai. Now that the emperor has elected a new Yutai general, they are still not dead hearted, and they are still worried about occupying this position that affects the safety of the entire imperial court. In order to muddy the waters for their own interests, they secretly instigated and supported Yixiang to accept foreign killers, provoked incidents and created popular uprisings, and did not hesitate to betray their compatriots and the country for their own selfishness. Yixiang failed, and they began to seek new agents in the court. The change of dynasty is coming,

There is only one position, and there are many people who are tempted, and the temptation will be used by them, and they are in full swing to deploy, indicating that chaos is approaching and the mountain rain is coming.

In the left Prime Minister Fu Xiang's mansion, Fu Xiang listened to several people in the Hanlin Academy discussing: "Reasoning, this Lord Yuwen is the prince, unless he has a grudge against the prince, who would dare to attack him in the capital." ”

If you have a grudge against the crown prince, isn't it related to the succession, then it's not a personal grudge that you see, and everyone is smart enough to keep quiet.

"I heard a piece of news, saying that this Lord Yuwen is not only the Taifu, but also the Yutai General of Pingluan Pavilion, saying that the emperor's trust in him is beyond measure, and he will hand over the third force to protect the royal family in addition to the Imperial Forest Army and the Praetorian Guard, Pingluan Pavilion, which is to let him ensure that the crown prince ascends the throne smoothly."

Fu Xiang glanced at the person who said this, but did not speak.
