He was an old man, a very old man, and by his memory, he was about five hundred and thirty-three years old, well, that's the number.

His body is no longer tough, and even a little rickety. Of course, this was because the aura of heaven and earth had dried up, and he couldn't return to his peak state. If the aura of heaven and earth is abundant, I also feel that I can go to Jiangnan Lang several times. This is no joke!

It's a pity, it's a pity, he's old. When people are old, they like to recall some things from the past.

That year, he still remembered that according to the park chronology that is commonly used now, it should be 1368, that is, the first year of Hongwu, and he met the man he wanted to follow for the rest of his life.

At that time, they were all still young, and the gap in status was like a moat. At that time, he was a squire, but that man was a prince.

A few years later, His Royal Highness was named King of Yan, and he followed His Highness to the King of Yan's Mansion in Yanjing.

Although so many years have passed, he still remembers the appearance of the majestic Yanwang Mansion for the first time in front of his eyes, although so many years have passed, he still remembers every corridor of the Yanwang Mansion and he is still familiar with every small courtyard of the Yanwang Mansion.

The accident happened on the night of the eighteenth year of Hongwu.

His eighteen-year-old Highness had just finished his evening class and was about to rest, and he was with him.

Walking on the way to the bedroom, His Royal Highness suddenly said, Chang Huai, I really want the position of Yingtianfu.

He was stunned, but he wasn't one of those shoddy servants. He knew that when His Highness told him this, he regarded him as a confidant.

He said, "Your Highness, is there anything I can do for you?"

Do you want to learn martial arts?" asked His Highness at that time.

Yes, the minister is willing to go to the trouble for His Highness!" he replied.

His Highness stopped talking, for they had already reached His Highness's bedroom, where there would naturally be servants to take care of him. And he, too, should rest.

The next day, His Royal Highness invited a brocade guard, and it should be a thousand households. He forgot the name of this Qianhu Lord, but he only vaguely remembered that the Qianhu Lord seemed to have the surname Ji.

Since then, he has been practicing martial arts diligently with this master of a thousand households, day after day, year after year.

Later, when he followed His Highness on the expedition, he was already at the immortal level.

He vowed to have more power to protect His Highness. Because of the fourth year of Jianwen, when Tianfu City was broken, he stood behind His Highness, and there was an arrow that he could not stop.

It was Senhu who stopped the arrow. It seems that it was also because of that arrow that Lord Qianhu was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guard.

From now on, His Highness should be called Your Majesty. His Majesty set the capital of Yanjing and changed the name of the year to Yongle.

He asked His Majesty why he had set the capital in Yanjing, which was close to the north, even though the north had been in turmoil for many years.

At that time, His Majesty laughed a few times, pointed in the direction of Yanshan, and said to him, Chang Huai, the emperor should be the pillar of a country, should live in the north, guard the country, and should die for the world Sheji. Only in this way can we achieve the will of the people and be invincible.

Well, this is what later generations said, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies.

He's not a king, he's just a squire turned guard, ah no, brocade guard. At that time, he didn't understand what His Majesty said, he only understood that the Majesty in the yellow robe in front of him should be the person he defended with his life.

It's been again, the year, whether it's the thirteenth year of Yongle or the fourteenth year of Yongle, he can't remember. He only remembered that the biggest thing that happened this year was that half of his master, the commander surnamed Ji, was beheaded by His Majesty's order.

On that day, the people in the imperial city were terrified.

That night, His Majesty summoned him, and in His Majesty's study, there were only the two of them, and there was no one outside the house.

At that time, His Majesty sat on a wooden chair, and on the bookcase was a mountain of melotons, a gold waist plate, and a metallic black sword unsheathed.

At that time, His Majesty said that the crime of Commander Ji was added by me. Over the years, the information collected by Jin Yiwei has been handled by him, and he knows too much. What's more, after he died, no one knew that there was a person named Luo Changhuai in the Jinyi Guard.

His Majesty paused, stretched out his finger and pointed to the treasure knife on the bookcase, and said to him solemnly.

You are the only one who is not known to others. Now, I grant you the rank of Commander and grant you the Yama Sword. But remember, I won't tell you who you are, and you only have the right to investigate the case, not the right to dispatch. I am not like Taizu, I have no quality of cultivation, therefore, I will always die one day. I have given you these rights in the hope that you can protect my Ming dynasty and protect my future generations. By your command, you can investigate and deal with all cases in the whole country, and anyone who obstructs you from investigating the case will be immediately decided. I'll inform Chi'er about this. From now on, you will be the patron saint of my Ming Dynasty.

He took over the Yama sword and the command order given to him by His Majesty, and also took over the extremely heavy burden.

Later, in the twenty-second year of Yongle, His Majesty died.

From this moment on, no one knew the name Luo Changhuai. The emperors of the past dynasties only knew that Chengzu left a guardian god-like commander of the brocade guard to protect the Ming Dynasty.

On the day when His Majesty was sent to the imperial tomb, he bought a jar of wine, sat on a hill not far away, and drank alone.

After so many years, he figured out that His Majesty thought that he had laid a trap for him to drill into, but he did not know that from the first day he became His Majesty's attendant, he was wholeheartedly loyal to His Majesty, and there was no second heart.

He keeps his promises, and he may not love each other and guard his world. Until, that day comes.

In 1644, Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in the coal mountain, and the Ming Dynasty ended.

On that day, he didn't go to save Emperor Chongzhen, because he knew that the Ming Dynasty could not be saved. As long as the royal blood is circulated, it is enough.

He still came to Yanjing City and waited there for a while.

What he is waiting for is Shunzhi's entry into Beijing.

On that day, the Qing army's formation was very grand. That day was the day when the Qing Dynasty officially stood in the annals of Chinese history. On that day, there were many, many people waiting for Shunzhi in the capital.

When he returned to Yanjing City, he didn't want to assassinate Shunzhi, because he knew that the demise of the Ming Dynasty was a foregone conclusion, and he couldn't change it. Even if he killed Shunzhi, it would have no effect. When he returned to Yanjing, he wanted to protect Shunzhi.

His Yama sword was unsheathed again, and this time, he was gathered and would face his colleagues.

He always knew that there had always been a special organization named the Command Envoy Division in the Jinyi Guard. The division was established by Taizu to accommodate every retired Jinyi Guard commander, and formed the strongest combat power of the Ming Dynasty.

He stood at the mouth of the alley, with a knife in hand.

One after another, middle-aged people in unicorn suits and holding embroidered spring knives came out of the shadows. Among these people, there are many acquaintances.

Mao Xiang, Jiang Xian, Sai Hazhi, Lu Bing, Yuan Bin, Shi Wenyi, Ma Jixiang, etc., are all famous Jinyi Wei commanders. Of course, they are also his colleagues.

He didn't have to ask them, because he could read what they were thinking. When Chongzhen hanged himself, it was understandable that he didn't show up, but if they didn't show up, they were selfish.

They want to kill Shunzhi and seek to usurp the throne!

That day, he only said one word.

Jin Yiwei commanded Luo Changhuai to investigate the case, Cheng Zu had a life, and those who prevented me from investigating the case were immediately decided.

On that day, it was he who took the Yama knife and killed for the last time.

Many years later, he recalled the scene of that day, and all that remained in his memory was blood.

After that day, he lived in seclusion on a hill in the south of the Yangtze River, built a wooden house casually, and lived casually.

He actually likes this kind of life, the hustle and bustle of officialdom, away from the darkness of politics. He had a pavilion built for him, built by the lake, and he was the only one.

Many, many more years passed, and he couldn't remember exactly how long. Anyway, on that day, a young man with a child of five or six years old found him.

The young man said that he was from the Ren family, his name was Ren Linshu, and his name was Tiance.

The young man came here because he wanted his son Ren Gongchi to worship him as a teacher.

He agreed, because this child's talent was familiar to him.

And then, I lived like this until now.

He sat up slightly straighter and untied the knife from his arm.

People are old.,Sure enough, I like to reminisce about the past.。。

With such a feeling in his heart, he beckoned to the little boy who was not performing and was practicing martial arts.

"Excuse me, stop. Come here, I have something for you. ”

The little boy ran over and stood in front of him, looking at him with a pair of big watery eyes.

He took the knife, handed it to the little boy, and said with a smile: "Yan'er, the teacher is now giving you this Yama knife." This knife has accompanied the teacher for a lifetime, although the teacher did not use it to eliminate evil and promote good, but at least he did not do anything to hurt nature and reason. As a teacher does not require much of you, as long as you don't hold your own strength and be arrogant, you can do whatever you want, and you will not have any complaints as a teacher. ”

The little boy took the knife, and his eyes showed incomparable firmness: "Yes, Master, the apprentice will remember." ”

He nodded, waved his hand at the little boy, and said, "Okay, you continue to practice the sword, it's time to rest for the teacher." ”
