On the morning of April 12 in the first year of Taikang.

Ministers Li An and Wu Zhao knocked to see Your Majesty, may my emperor live long live long live. Please get up, I don't know what is the important thing to come to see me in the morning?

Back to Your Majesty, there is a master in the villain's mansion, who can solve the mystery of His Majesty's nightmare, last night I discussed with the master and the Wu Zhao brothers, and felt that this person did not want to be alarmist, so I came to report to Your Majesty.

Where did this person come from?

This person's surname is Zhu, his name is Guozhi, the word wakes up from a dream, he is seventy years old, and he has founded the famous Snow Mountain School in the rivers and lakes, and he is strong in martial arts. On the way to Huzhou to announce the decree, this feudal servant met with Wu Zhao brothers on the way back to Beijing, and it happened that this person went to Beijing.

Wu Zhao added: This person's martial arts are world-famous, and Mr. Wang Mingyang of the Zhongnan faction is known as the world's five uniques, and at the same time he is full of poetry and books, and his spirit is lofty.

It's just that this person has a request, Gonggong Li said.

Say it?

Originally, the two of us wanted to invite this master to meet Your Majesty together today and solve problems for Your Majesty, but this person said that although Your Majesty's side is heavily guarded, there are many traitors and villains, and they are afraid of revealing secrets and destroying the overall situation. Therefore, they refused to come to see Your Majesty, so the two of us have come to report to Your Majesty, and implore Your Majesty to secretly move the villain's mansion.

Emperor Tai Kang hesitated for a moment and said: Then tomorrow evening, I will secretly see this person in your mansion, and if he is untrustworthy, I will punish his nine clans.

The ministers obeyed the order, but His Majesty promised that it would be kept secret and that no fourth person would know about it except for us. Tomorrow afternoon, I Wu Zhao will come to the Heart Cultivation Hall to escort me.

Okay, let's do it, you wait until you retire first.

Thank you, Your Majesty, the ministers and others will retire.

Gonggong Li, do you think Master Zhu can really solve the mystery of His Majesty's nightmare?

The old slave is ninety percent sure, I think this master of the Zhu Sect is not an ordinary person, not like the great Confucian of the world, nor like the master of the world, and he is not reckless to the rivers and lakes.

What does that look like? Wu Zhao asked......

Like a prince and a general......

The hero sees the same thing, it seems that you and I can rely on the Lord of the Zhu Sect to make a great contribution, hahaha, Wu Zhao said and laughed.

In the mansion of Gonggong Li of Jingshi, Zhu Guozhi walked back and forth in the room, took the secret letter sent by the female spy sent by the Snow Mountain and looked at it again, and looked up to the sky and sighed: Seventeenth brother, I didn't expect you to be so vicious, is this to isolate yourself from your ancestors? No, the old man will never agree, although the family will not bear me, I will never bear the family, and I will never be a sinner of the family. Suddenly there was a knock on the door...... Who is it?

Master, it's me Wu Zhao, have you rested?

Come in, Zhao'er.

The apprentice takes the liberty to disturb, please understand.

You're welcome, you are my apprentice grandson, just like the old man's own grandson, they are all a family, don't see outside. Is there anything wrong with coming so late?

That's the case, tomorrow evening, Your Majesty will secretly go to the Li Mansion to meet us and others, and ask the master to get ready.

Well, I see, don't worry, I'm sure.

That's good, I haven't seen Sister Qiqi for the past two days?

Oh, I forgot to tell you, because there was urgent information, I sent her to the Snow Mountain faction, what? Not used to it?

Shizu, for more than ten days, it has become a habit to listen to my sister play every night, chat with her, and discuss poetry masterpieces.

Hahaha, she'll be back at the end of the month, you can practice well, I don't know how you feel when you read my self-created Thirteen Swords and Swordsmanship?

The disciple Sun felt that this swordsman's move was too ruthless, and it was no wonder that the ancestor could shock the rivers and lakes and rank among the top five.

Zhao'er is very smart and has a tough physique, your understanding will surpass the old man in less than five years, but your understanding and inertia account for half of each, and you can only be higher than the old man when you think of it, and you can't compare with Mr. Yang Ming.

Master Ancestor, the apprentice Sun feels that although the Thirteen Deadly Swords are powerful, there is a drawback, not only the Thirteen Deadly Swords of the Ancestor, but also the five peerless masters of the rivers and lakes exist today.

What do you mean by that?

This swordsmanship, although this martial art is powerful, can only be used in fighting, even on the battlefield can only kill more enemies, its power can not be exerted in the war, if you can use this martial arts to lead the army, it will be even more amazing.

Zhu Guozhi was shocked, he didn't expect Wu Zhao to have this insight at a young age, although he could reach the peak in fighting by creating this swordsmanship, but it played a role in the war, and it really didn't have much effect as Wu Zhao said, at most he could kill more enemies.

Hahaha...... Hahaha...... Hahaha.

He is young, knowledgeable, and teachable.

Hahaha...... Hahaha...... Hahaha, Zhu Guozhi said with a laugh. The old man is getting older and older, and he can't do anything about it, since you have this insight, the improvement and promotion of the Thirteen Deadly Swords depends on you.

The disciples didn't dare, Zhu Guozhi said.

On April 13 of the first year of Taikang, the Jingshi Li Mansion was quiet, everything was as usual, but there were thirty more female masters of the Snow Mountain Sect in the mansion to ambush and escort, of course, all this was not known to outsiders, even the left ministers and right ministers, princes and nobles, and harem concubines. In the secret room, there were all kinds of wine and food on the table, and Li An and Zhu Guo'an were waiting calmly.

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, there are only Tai Kangdi and Wu Zhao. Wu Zhao said, Your Majesty, let's get up, we have arranged a dinner in Gonggong Li's mansion, and I invite Your Majesty to appreciate your face.

Let's go! Emperor Tai Kang dressed in eunuch court clothes and Wu Zhao left quickly, and walked towards Li An's mansion.

The emperor arrived, Li An and Zhu Guozhi quickly greeted His Majesty, and in the secret room of Li An's mansion, Wu Zhao whispered.

Although he was wearing eunuch court clothes, he couldn't hide the grandeur of Emperor Taikang, Zhu Guozhi knelt down without thinking, and whispered: Zhu Guozhi is reckless in the rivers and lakes to see Your Majesty, long live......

Master Zhumen is flat, everyone sit, wait for a long time, hurry up and sit down.

As Li An and Wu Zhao said, this Zhu Guozhi is really extraordinary, and he is really a god, so he said: The old gentleman came from the snow mountain thousands of miles away, this climate is quite different from the snow mountain, I don't know if the old man lives well in the Li Mansion.

Your Majesty Xie cares, in the past few days, Gonggong Li and Wu Zhao have taken care of the little prince, I will die and eat well and live well, Zhu Guozhi said.

Back to Your Majesty, this table of delicacies is operated by the Lord of the Zhu Sect himself, this Tianshan Snow Wine is brewed by the Lord of the Zhu Sect fifty years ago, please taste it, Wu Zhao said.

So, Tai Kangdi had a dinner with Wu Zhao, Li An, and Zhu Guozhi, eating the delicacies of the snow mountain taste and drinking the 50-year-old Tianshan snow wine.

Tai Kangdi grew up in the palace, and for the first time, he tasted delicious and delicious wine from a foreign land, and he was in a good mood. This dish seems simple, but it is no worse than the palace, and the Tianshan snow wine is even more memorable. So he said, the old gentleman is versatile, admirable, I have nightmares for days, and I hope to give some advice.

Back to Your Majesty, the old man came from the snow-capped mountains thousands of miles away, just to solve problems for His Majesty, and there will be big things happening in the Great Xia Dynasty.

As soon as he said this, the four eyes looked at each other, and Wu Zhao and Li An were shocked.

Zhu Guozhi continued: On May 1, the Xiangguo Temple will be a big sacrifice, and Your Majesty will have a great disaster.

Emperor Taikang was furious and presumptuous, my Great Xia Dynasty was peaceful and prosperous, why is it difficult, the old gentleman can't say anything.

Li An also reprimanded angrily: Your Majesty is deeply loved by the people, if you are stable today, if Mr. talks nonsense, you are not afraid of causing death?

Hahaha, Zhu Guozhi laughed and said: What do the three of you know about the seventy-two Buddhas in the main hall of Xiangguo Temple?

Tai Kangdi, Ang Lee? Wu Zhao didn't know, Qi asked Zhu Guozhi rhetorically?

The 72 Buddhas were built in the 10th year of Taiping, and it has been 50 years so far, and the inside of the Buddha can accommodate 100,000 people.

Are you saying that someone stationed troops inside the Buddha with the intention of rebellion? Wu Zhao said.

Yes, there are 30,000 black-clothed guards stationed in the seventy-two Buddhas, and these 30,000 black-clothed guards are all masters of the world. Think about it, if these 30,000 black-clothed guards rebelled, wouldn't Your Majesty and the princes and nobles definitely die.

Tai Kangdi, Li An and Wu Zhao were shocked and frightened, and they couldn't speak for a while.

Zhu Guozhi continued, these are not all, the former Prime Minister Zuo, Jingbian Marquis Liu Jin, and now the first assistant of the dynasty and the Prime Minister Zuo have arranged for 5,000 masters to mix in the crowd of sacrificial monks and Taoist priests, just to win His Majesty and the princes and ministers in one fell swoop on the day of the sacrifice, and then ascend the throne and succeed to the throne.

Taikanti said. I and the first emperor are not thin on the Liu family, why is he so mad.

Zhu Guozhi said, firstly, in order to control the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Great Xia Dynasty and ascend to the throne of the emperor, and secondly, in order to take revenge, His Majesty's ancestors once washed the Liu family in blood, but the first emperor and His Majesty were deceived by Liu Jin and did not know the truth.

Since Liu An entered the quarantine, he has been heartfelt and dedicated to assisting me, is it all an appearance?

The minister has something to play, Wu Zhao said.

The minister redressed the grievances of more than 20,000 souls of the Wang Lang family of Juxian Zhuang.

Tai Kang Di and Li An were shocked, Tai Kang Di said, say quickly.

Wang Lang was not a traitor to the enemy, but a hero, just because he was framed by Liu Jin and Liu An, he became a ghost under His Majesty's sword.

Emperor Taikang was furious, there is such a thing, Wu Zhaoxiaoer, don't wronged the courtiers.

Your Majesty, my Wu family and Wang Lang's family were originally world friends, and during the national funeral, the five fathers and sons of my Wu family lived in Wang Lang's Juxian Village. Wang Lang once told me and my father that during the state funeral, Liu Jin found Wang Lang, hoping to get Wang Lang's help, and assassinated His Majesty and the princes and ministers in the mausoleum of the first emperor on the day of the state funeral.

Remember, come on.

After the 5,000 people assassinated His Majesty, the 2,000 masters of the Guardian Courtyard arranged by Wang Lang suddenly counterattacked the 3,000 masters arranged by Liu Jin to protect His Majesty and the princes and ministers.

Well, there is this, just when it was difficult for us and other guards to parry, thousands of masters suddenly counterattacked their own people, and all Liu An was able to fight his way out of the encirclement, move in to rescue the soldiers, and exterminate the rebellious party, Tai Kangdi said.

Wu Zhao said, so the two thousand masters of the counteroffensive should have made great contributions, not the chaotic party that assassinated His Majesty, and Wang Lang should also be a meritorious person, and should not be punished by His Majesty.

Your Majesty, Wu Zhao is true, the five thousand masters who assassinated His Majesty are composed of Wang Lang's two thousand masters and three thousand masters of my Snow Mountain faction, including the four sons and three sons-in-law of the old man, who could have killed His Majesty and the princes and nobles in one fell swoop, but I didn't expect Wang Lang's two thousand masters to counterattack against my Snow Mountain Sect three thousand masters, Liu Jin saw that the big thing had gone, so he pretended to kill out of the encirclement, moved to the rescue, and strangled the five thousand masters, Zhu Guozhi continued. Therefore, Liu Jin and Liu An were afraid that the matter would be leaked, so they ordered the rescuers to kill all the assassins, leaving no one alive, destroying the evidence, and at the same time making great contributions and being extremely popular.

Wu Zhao continued, not only that, Liu Jin and Liu An were worried that Wang Lang would send a high fortune to His Majesty, so he made a false certificate to push the assassination of the state funeral to Wang Lang, and used His Majesty's hand to get rid of Wang Lang's family.

The ambition of the wolf, the ambition of the wolf, Liu Jin and Liu An are bold, I am the whole clan of Zhuer, and Emperor Taikang spits blood in his mouth, and he is furious. Li An and Wu Zhao hurriedly helped Tai Kangdi to sit down, and sent a decoction to wait.

The old man is guilty, and he should not have listened to Liu Jin and Liu An's instructions to assassinate His Majesty, and after the old man assisted His Majesty in getting rid of the traitor, he should apologize for his guilt. After speaking, Zhu Guozhi couldn't kneel, but he was obviously relieved.

After the revelation was meritorious, I immediately returned to the palace and ordered someone to arrest the Liu family for interrogation.

Your Majesty can't, Zhu Guozhi said:

Why?

Zhu Guozhi continued, why don't Your Majesty take this opportunity to cast a net to catch fish, and when the Liu family falls, you can arrange for your cronies to seize power and return to the court. If you act now, you will definitely startle the snake, not to mention that now that the Liu clan is in charge of the key points of the Beijing Division, if Your Majesty fights to the death, there is no chance of winning.

Why, could it be that the guards of the capital have defected.

Back to Your Majesty, Qian Jiong'an, the Minister of the Guard, Qin Wuyang, the head of the Imperial Forest Army, and Xu Da are the illegitimate sons of Liu Jin, and the garrison of the capital is controlled by the Liu clan except for the Left Guard Army led by Zhao Gang, and it is difficult for Your Majesty to control it, Zhu Guozhi said.

How is that good? Tai Kangdi, Li An, and Wu Zhao asked together.

Your Majesty needs to quickly and secretly summon the flag king Liang Shili, the king of the lake Liang Shicheng, and the king of Qin Liang Kuan to each command 50,000 horses into Beijing, I have sent my granddaughter Zhu Qiqi to send three thousand female masters to the snow mountain into Beijing, please Your Majesty will mix them into the crowd of sacrificial palace women, if the chaotic ministers and thieves change, these three thousand female masters can ensure that Your Majesty and the princes and ministers are worry-free, and the other thieves will be handed over to the king of the flag, the king of the lake, and the king of Qin to kill.

In my opinion, this plan is feasible, and the military attaches of the DPRK and China, Zhao Wuxu, Zhao Gang, and Xu Liang, are people who can be trusted, and Your Majesty can mobilize men and horses from them to protect Your Majesty's safety. In addition, the three princes must arrive in the capital secretly before April 28, and we will wait here on the evening of April 28 to discuss the detailed plan with the three princes. Wu Zhao added.

On the morning of April 14, Emperor Taikang Liang Kun personally issued an edict that Empress Yang Liu was responsible for selecting 5,000 palace maids across the country within 10 days.

Empress Yang Liu was dumbfounded, and she didn't know why Her Majesty did this, Emperor Taikang said: You are responsible for selecting 2,000 people in the palaces and eunuchs of princes and ministers and other official families and families, and the remaining 3,000 palace maids, I have my own way, you must not divulge secrets, otherwise the whole family, Empress Yang is puzzled, and has to follow the order.

Before he knew it, it was dawn, and Wu Zhao escorted Emperor Taikang back to the palace.

On April 15 of the first year of Taikang, Liang Shili, the king of the banner, Liang Shicheng, the king of the lake, and Zhao Gang, the king of Qin, respectively received the will of the Taikang Emperor Feige. They were asked to secretly enter Beijing with 50,000 elite soldiers, to arrive in Beijing before 27 April, to set up camp in secret, and to discuss important matters at Li An's mansion on the evening of 28 April. If you disobey the will, divulge secrets, and do not arrive on time, you will be dealt with by military law, served by family law, and expelled from the imperial family.

On April 16 of the first year of Taikang, three groups of men and horses secretly went to Beijing from Huzhou, Qizhou and Qinzhou respectively.

Gonggong Li's mansion, Wu Zhao said. I really didn't expect that the Snow Mountain Sect of the mighty rivers and lakes suffered such a catastrophe, except for Sister Qiqi, all the relatives of the ancestor have left, and in the future, the ancestor will be your grandson!

Heaven can still live for evil, self-done evil can not live, it's not that you don't report it, the time has not come, the old man killed too much when he was young, the hatred was too heavy, God left me Qiqiqi, and I met Zhao'er again, it was already God's eyes.

Is the revenge that the ancestor said about seeking revenge from Liu Jin and Liu An?

The old man has countless enemies in his life, but the main ones are two major enemies, one is the Liu family headed by Liu Jin and Liu An. The vengeance is about to be avenged, and I can rest in peace.

Master, what about Lingyi?

The other is the Liang family, which is dominated by the current emperor.

However, His Majesty does not know, the old man has long been relieved, the grievances of the year have disappeared, and now the country and the people are safe, the first emperor and Taikang Emperor are also the emperors of the ages, and the old man will not risk the world's disapproval for his own selfishness. The reason why the old man is so scheming to find Liu Jin and Liu An to take revenge is one thing, and helping His Majesty Kuang Fu Sheji is the other, so you don't have to be nervous.

The disciples and grandchildren know that the ancestor is a person who understands the righteousness, and I recognize this door, and I will not care about life and death for everything in this door, please don't worry about the ancestor.

At noon on April 20, inside Ang Lee's mansion. Qiyu Gonggong Li, there are twenty people outside who ask to see him, saying that he is seeing His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince of Zhennan Kingdom. Li An said: Please let them in, the fourth prince of Zhennan Kingdom is practicing martial arts in the main hall, you go and inform the little prince.

After a while, in the main hall of the Li Mansion, the ministers Zhang Zhongyuan and Li Guohai visited the four princes.

Hurry up, who are you?

We are the guards of Zhennan Kingdom, the first-class guards carefully selected by the king in the country, I, Zhang Zhongyuan and Li Guohai, have read the military book and know the state affairs, and now I have come to help His Royal Highness the prince deal with government affairs. They are eighteen warriors, all of whom are skilled in martial arts, and they are specifically responsible for the safety of His Royal Highness. In addition, the king asked me to bring 200,000 yuan, of which 100,000 yuan was given to Gonggong Li, and 100,000 yuan was used as the daily expenses of the fourth prince.

Hahaha, your father's shot is generous, and the old slave will be exempted, and I, Li An, are not bad.

Father-in-law don't want to excuse himself, this is a little bit of my father's heart, please accept it!

Okay, I'll save it for the little prince first, and it will be useful in the future, even if I come to get it, I also ask the Lord of Zhumen to be a witness.

Hahahaha, everyone laughed out loud after hearing this.

Wu Zhao said: I think that I and Brother Zhang, Brother Li and eighteen warriors have to settle here for a long time, so let's do it, Li Guohai, you are responsible for purchasing a property in the capital as a place for us to stay, so it is not a long-term solution to toss Gonggong Li like this.

Hahaha, then I will do a business, there is a house five hundred meters east of my mansion, covering an area of one hundred and fifty acres, one hundred and ninety-nine houses, 10,000 yuan sold to the fourth prince, I don't know if the fourth prince likes it?

That's good, deal, Brother Zhang, Brother Li, take the eighteen warriors to find someone to clean up, and we will move in the day after tomorrow.
