Chapter 6: Chestnuts from the Fire

It only took Magellan a split second to get to where Bai Gongzi had been, and then he found that Bai Gongzi regarded this distance as safe for no reason - the distance between them had not been shortened.

That reminded Magellan of the astonishing speed at which Bai Gongzi first appeared, and if she wanted to leave, no one could leave her.

Finally, after taking a deep look at Magellan, as if to engrave his face into his heart, Bai Gongzi turned and left.

Magellan ran wildly on the rooftops of the town for a long time, but in the end he could not find the woman in white.

......

Mo Yi rests in a small city south of Jishui.

He had just come off the ship, and had traveled eight hundred miles yesterday day and night, changing four horses, and although Mo Yi himself did not need to rest so much, the next horse had not yet arrived, and he still had something to ask.

This is a small shop on the side of the road, and an old man in a thatched house sells some coarse tea, although it is not delicious, but it is better than quenching thirst.

Soon a woodcutter walked in.

"Juzi. ”

The woodcutter respectfully bowed to Mo, then sat down on his chair and took a breath from the coarse porcelain bowl of tea.

"The disciples have all been scattered, and I also asked the Changchun Sect, Zongheng, Jianghu Hawkers, and there has been no news so far. ”

"Jiangnan has dragon energy. Mo Yi opened his mind and fanned the wind with his clothes, sweat left on his chest, "But it is ethereal, there is no popularity, it seems that there is a big snake turning into a dragon." ”

"But......" The woodcutter was a little confused, dragons are extremely rare, and they can only be seen for hundreds of years, but the dragon that Qin Tianjian said does not look like a non-human, "The dragon returns to the sea, will it go north?"

"Yun Conglong, if it's not human, it's a natural disaster," Mo Yi said in a rough voice, sighing, "I can't ignore it, I have to go." ”

"Juzi ......" the woodcutter hesitated, "Are you going to slay the dragon?"

"It's okay to chase it. ”

Mo Yi stood up, and his rest was over.

A thin man led a tall black horse to the door of the small tea shop, which was so tall and majestic that it made the man look like a skinny monkey.

"Get the message out there. ”

"But Confucianism ......"

"The people are innocent, and the sooner the better. ”

Mo Yi didn't say anything more, and whipped up and hit the road.

......

"Mo Yi said that Jiangnan has dragon energy?"

In the mansion of the six princes, Yuan Qing was discussing in the study.

This is a very large room, with a sand table in the middle, and a map on the wall, which looks like a big tent of the Chinese army, but it is separated by a bookshelf, and on the other side is the four treasures of the study, Meilan, Zhuju, and I am not afraid of the complaints of Confucian disciples.

Of course, everyone knows that the sixth prince Yuanqing always likes to stay next to the sand table and overlook the splendid mountains and rivers.

It was only a day since Mo Yi talked to the children of the Mo family in the south of Jishui, and his words had already been transmitted back to the Six Princes' Mansion, which was something to be proud of, so Yuan Qing glanced at the soldiers again.

This is all from the handwriting of a disciple of the military family next to him Yuanqing, Xiang Wu.

"From the capital to the south of the Yangtze River, there are only two roads, one is to Jinling to cross the river, to the barren shore of the sea, all the way to Wuchang, into the clouds and dreams. Xiang Wu walked around on the side of the sand table, his fingers all the way from north to south, "Mo Yi crossed the water in Zhangcheng, that is, he went all the way to Wuchang, Daze danced the dragon and snake, and it was not a lie to think that he would turn into a dragon, and it must be in Yunmengze." ”

"Okay, good!" Yuan Qinglian said three good words, his mood was indeed very good, "If you can find the dragon before others this time, I will guarantee you to the military department, as long as there is a war, you can lead the army." ”

Xiang Wu nodded coldly and saluted with his fists.

Yuan Qing didn't care about Xiang Wu's attitude, most capable people were proud, but no matter how proud they were, they couldn't resist the temptation. One day, this soldier disciple will put away his coldness and show a flattering smile in front of Yuan Qing.

The Sixth Prince nodded to the people in the room, then turned and walked into the other side of the study.

Zheng Ye has been waiting for him for a long time.

"Liu Jian has already left the city and headed south. ”

"Hmph!" Yuan Qing snorted coldly, "The prince has always treated them as dogs......"

"I'm afraid they're trying to slay the dragon. ”

The sixth prince looked at Zheng Ye with surprised eyes.

This man will not lie to him. As a servant of the Ministry of Officials, the actual controller of the Ministry of Officials - the Ministry of Rites Shangshu can only be a demon clan according to the old system, and now it is Yuan Qing who is also the most relied on by the six princes, Zheng Ye is often ridiculed for being inflammatory, but few people say that he is frivolous and vain.

This is not good news.

"Slaying dragons?"

"Last night, I read it at night and felt that the Holy Dao Sword was born. ”

"What?"

Yuan Qing's face instantly became very ugly.

Zheng Ye lowered his head indifferently, looking at the turquoise tea in the teacup of the best official kiln, as if he was completely immersed in it.

After a long time, the six princes let out a long sigh.

"Is the Holy Dao Sword really as rumored?"

"Confucian disciples are powerless to resist, and among the hundred disciples, I am afraid that only Mo Yi can resist. ”

"Mo is a reckless man, it's hard for me to use. ”

Yuan Qing frowned, he once again felt the most unbearable anger - why did so many people work for him, but when he hired people, he still couldn't find anyone available?

"Only the master of the demon clan can fight against it. ”

Yuan Qing laughed.

This is Zheng Ye, the sixth prince thought in his heart, always loyal to him, and always find a way.

"My father gave me a big inner master, is one enough?"

"The demon clan is not suppressed by the Holy Dao Sword, and the one who is worried is only Liu Jian, and at most a few eight subordinates are enough. ”

"I'll let Bingyi go south," Yuan Qing hesitated, "Xiang Wu will go with you." ”

Zheng Ye nodded and didn't say anything moreβ€”as long as Yuan Qing made up his mind, he would hardly make any more suggestions.

"The third brother knows someone from the Kong family?"

It's finally here.

From the beginning, Zheng Ye was waiting for Yuan Qing to say this.

Confucianism has already occupied an absolute advantage in this pearl game, if the situation changes, will Confucianism lose this advantage?

All the Confucian disciples were like thorns in the back, including Zheng Ye - so he visited Shen Zheng overnight, even at the expense of being suspected by Yuan Qing.

Shen Zheng gave him a dangerous offer.

When that sentence flowed through Zheng Ye's heart, he shuddered again.

"Fully support the crown prince and force the princes to unite, and Confucianism is behind and occupies his position. ”

It's a fire in the fire.

But if Shen Zheng's plan succeeds, Confucianism will be invincible.

Even now, Zheng Ye was still surprised that he would be persuaded by Shen Zheng.

"The three princes are friendly with the Tai students," Zheng Ye put away his chaotic thoughts and answered Yuan Qing's question honestly, "I once collected Konglin's inscriptions and periodicals, so I was praised by Yan Shenggong, one of the three sages. ”

"Yan Shenggong, that's enough," Yuan Qing walked back and forth and nodded, "Let's go, I'll go see him." ”10
