However, Emperor Rongren also tried his best to stop the turmoil and clean up the old mountains and rivers. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Emperor Rongren formed a government army with his bare hands to reintegrate the broken country. Isn't this kind of merit comparable to that of Prince Qilian?"

"But Emperor Rongren is not right!" Zhong Shenyan said with some excitement, "When he ascended the throne, he first killed the government and the opposition with a river of blood, and then went to form a government army to suppress the rebellion. In the hearts of the Jianghu Wulin, only Prince Qilian is qualified to be the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Emperor Rongren is just a thief!"

"Just because of this?" Ning Yue took a deep breath, "Is the Jianghu Martial Arts too simple? Where is the wind and rain of the imperial court so simple? I saw the words left by Emperor Rongren at the exit of Baiping Mountain. From his words, it seems that there was a big hand at hand in the rebellion of that year. I don't understand what an immortal hand is, but I guess it's not that simple. ”

"We naturally don't understand what the wind and rain of the court is, but the real opposition between martial arts and the court was forty years ago. Zhong Shenyan said gloomily.

"How did it go back to forty years ago? Did that frontier battle last for a whole ten years?"

"Not really. Zhong Shenyan shook his head slightly, "After Emperor Rongren suppressed the rebellion, the Grassland Battle also took a turn for the better. Under the divine calculation of Prince Qilian, we successfully ambushed the Immortal Heavenly Palace. That battle almost tore the sky apart and trampled the earth to pieces.

When the five masters of the Heavenly List died in battle, they finally led the Immortal Heavenly Palace and other martial arts masters of the grassland to the place where they were buried. Tens of millions of pounds of gunpowder blew them to the ground. It was also because of this battle that the defeat of the grassland Hulu was laid.

Half a year later, Prince Qilian returned to Beijing and found that the throne had fallen. Kyushu Wulin, including all the masters of the Heavenly List at that time, were willing to support Prince Qilian's return to the throne. With the strength of Prince Qilian at that time, it was easy to enter the capital. ”

"Then why did Prince Qilian give up in the end?" Ning Yue asked curiously, he didn't believe that anyone would be able to withstand the temptation of the throne at his fingertips.

"The country is shaky, and the people are struggling to make a living. In addition, when the grassland saw that there was still an opportunity to make a comeback, there were even countless self-reliant sparks in the land of Kyushu. As long as the war between Prince Qilian and Emperor Rongren is launched, it will definitely be a wildfire.

At that time, Mr. Jinghe, the crown prince, entered the military camp of the prince of Qilian at night and talked thoroughly for three days and three nights. Later, Mr. Jinghe died of exhaustion, and the prince of Qilian proclaimed himself the king of Qilian, relieved his military power and entered the border of Yongzhen in Liangzhou. ”

"Prince Qilian...... It's a pity, respectable!" Ning Yue said leisurely after listening.

"Prince Qilian gave up the throne, but Emperor Rongren didn't want to give up. After that, the martial arts of the rivers and lakes were suppressed in every possible way, and the contradictions between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes have also become more and more fierce in the past ten years. Finally...... Ten years later, something big happened. ”

Ning Yue's eyes suddenly burst out with curiosity, he would never hear a single bit of these martial arts secrets in the past. Sure enough, there is an old man in the family, such as a treasure. Zhong Shenyan is almost a living dictionary of Jiangnan martial arts.

"The master of the Heavenly List back then, the head of Wuyi Mountain, the twelve peerless purple jade true teachers of heaven and earth, Tiancang Zhenren, was killed! And the martial arts of killing people are a secret that the royal family does not pass on, and the emperor has passed on the secret of the world! Do you say, do you still have to swallow your anger in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes? Do you still want to sit back and wait to die?"

"Are you reunited?" Ning Yue's heart trembled slightly, isn't this a copy of ten years later? According to this situation, it is estimated that it will be like this in ten years, right?

"Eighteen masters of the Heavenly List back then, ten died in battle. Jianghu martial arts have paid so much for the Great Zhou, what is the exchange? Tiancang Zhenren lost an arm in the frontier and came back, not dying on the frontier, but dying under the suppression of the imperial court? How can the rivers and lakes not be angry?

Ning Yue stopped talking, because he really didn't know what to say. Although I vaguely guessed that things might not be so simple. After all, Emperor Rongren's administration was known for its mildness, and it was impossible for a person who was gentle with government decrees to show two completely different styles in treating Jianghu martial arts.

"And then?"

"Later?ha......" Zhong Shenyan suddenly laughed, but when he laughed, the expression on his face was so weird, he was crying.

"As soon as the martial arts alliance was assembled, a scholar came, and the scholar's age was in his thirties. Hahaha...... It's ridiculous, a scholar, one person and one sword! He killed two masters of the Heavenly List in a row, and the remaining one was so frightened by him that he broke his skills on the spot, and within a few years he went mad and died...... Hahaha......"

"Shhhh

"A scholar? Is this still a scholar? It can't be that monster incarnation, do you know the identity of that scholar?" Ning Yue's back suddenly exploded, he had personally talked about the attack of the master of the Heavenly Rank, and experienced the majesty of Yue Longxuan's power like Mount Tai. Such a person, but two were killed on the spot by a scholar? Ning Yue didn't dare to imagine and couldn't imagine.

"Nobody knew that the scholar was like he had come out of a painting. Back then, I also heard from the seniors in the sect that the scholar floated away after killing people, and never appeared in the rivers and lakes again...... Since then, the grassland has fallen into chaos, and the Kyushu Tianbang has fallen completely......"

"The master of the last generation of heavenly lists...... What about the other three?" Ning Yue counted in her heart, and only counted fifteen.

"The immortal immortal game Jianghu, he didn't appear sixty years ago, and it was only in the past thirty years that there was news of him. The old man of the previous generation of Tianji also passed away twenty years ago, and the first Nian Immortal Buddha of the Heavenly List that year ......"

Saying Zhong Shenyan, he often sighed with some regret, "Originally, he should have been the most amazing and brilliant character." Pity...... Trapped in love. Forty years ago, I locked myself in Putuo Temple, and now I think it has passed away. ”

The atmosphere fell into a dead silence, and Ning Yue lowered her head and gently tapped her forehead. The grievances between Jianghu Wulin and the Great Zhou court are so complicated, they are simply in love and killing each other. There was nowhere to put it out, and after a long time, Ning Yue slowly raised her head.

"I still decided to recruit the Heavenly Shogunate from the Jiangnan Dao Martial Arts!" Ning Yue thought for a long time before saying slowly.

"Alliance Leader ......"

Zhong Shenyan still wanted to speak, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by Shen Qianqiu, "Master Zhong, let's listen to the alliance leader's reason!"

"The contradiction between the Jianghu martial arts and the imperial court is in the past, but we can't hold on to the past and not think about the future, the future is our primary consideration. Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty has risen to the level of the four seas, the country is rich and the people are strong, and even the national strength that was depleted fifty years ago is gradually recovering, so what reason does the imperial court have to sit back and watch the rivers and lakes and martial arts gradually grow bigger and let it go?

The Jiangnan Martial Arts League was established, and there will be more martial arts leagues established by chance in the future. In the face of the gradual strengthening of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes, how will the imperial court view us? Don't forget, the martial arts are getting stronger, and the imperial court is getting stronger even faster! If we have to force the imperial court to make up its mind to eradicate all the martial arts, it will be too late to think of countermeasures.

I don't ask about past grievances, I only ask what is the original intention of my generation of martial arts practitioners?

"One is survival, the other is fame and fortune!" Shen Qianqiu did not play sloppy, but pointed directly to the essence of martial arts. Chivalry is for fame and fortune, and happiness and revenge are for survival. The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and any person in the martial arts is ultimately chasing fame and fortune.

"Yes, chasing fame and fortune, but there is a limit after all. Although fame and fortune are good, they are too much. And this limit is the law, and the law is also a bottom line for the court to tolerate. Within the law, the court can turn a blind eye, but if it goes beyond the law, it will challenge the bottom line of the country.

The people in the martial arts of my generation are happy to enmity and hatred, but they ignore the word law. Let me use an analogy, my generation is chivalrous and righteous, and when we see bullies bullying the weak, we draw our swords to help. Has the imperial court made a big fuss about this?

But if we see a corrupt official and draw our sword to kill him, even if the corrupt official really deserves to die, but it is beyond the law. Why is it that a bully can be killed, but a corrupt official cannot be killed? I think you should all know the reason, right?"

Ning Yue threw out a question, but it also moved everyone present. Of course, they knew the truth, and they often admonished their disciples. It is indispensable to draw a knife to help when the road is uneven, but many times when the road is uneven, you can't take action.

The disciples of the great sect had the advice and admonition of their elders, but those lone rangers did not. Therefore, the taboo of chivalry and martial arts is mostly to say that the group of lone knights are eager to seek fame, causing consequences.

"But if Jiangnan Martial Arts and the Heavenly Shogunate are combined, this is within the law. The Tenshogunate maintained stability for the imperial court, intervened in civil criminal cases, and blocked the influence of the rivers and lakes on ordinary people...... The Jianghu martial arts are monitored and suppressed, but the combination of the two takes the convenience of the two.

If the rivers and lakes are not easy to come forward, the Tenshofu can come forward, and the rivers and lakes that the Tenshofu cannot come forward can intervene. The most important thing is that we can understand the imperial decrees, and we can avoid the situation of knowing them but not knowing why they are true. ”

"What if the imperial court wants the Heavenly Shogunate to exterminate the Jiangnan Dao martial arts?"

"Then the premise is to ask what Jiangnan Dao Wulin has done? The imperial court will not do it for no reason. Because for the imperial court, war means the consumption of national strength. Whether they are in the rivers and lakes or ordinary people, they are all part of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If the imperial court wants to make a move against the rivers and lakes, it will not make a move until it can't bear it. Jianghu is not a foreign race, let alone an enemy, and eradicating martial arts is tantamount to abandoning martial arts!"

"Then which of us are unbearable to the imperial court, and which ones are tolerable? What if the imperial court only wants to simply dissolve us, or even want to subdue us for its own use?" Zhong Shenyan's face was a little embarrassed, but he had to worry after the years of intensified contradictions.

"That's the benefit of joining the Tenshogunate, through which you know what you can do and what you can't do. As for the second question, why did the imperial court dissolve the Wulin League? The only concern was that the Wulin League rebelled, or that it did not obey the imperial court's decrees and acted arbitrarily. Therefore, as long as the Jiangnan Wulin League avoids things that are not allowed by the imperial court, there is no doubt about being targeted.

As for what you said about taking it for your own use...... Then it depends on what the imperial court has to do to subdue the martial arts? Do you want to defend the land? Do you want to ask for the people's life? Or do you ...... You don't want to expand your territory?

I don't think anyone in the entire martial arts forest likes to live in troubled times, right? I'd rather be a peace dog than a person in a troubled world. The imperial court and the martial arts must not be hostile, this is not good for anyone!" (To be continued.) )
