Chapter 37: Strength
Shen Zhao asked in a deep voice, "All these years, grandfather, are they okay?"
Ye Yu said: "The environment in the north is naturally much worse than in the capital, but the little master can rest assured, the master is all right now, don't worry."
"Hmm." Shen Zhao nodded.
After cleaning up his mood for a while, Shen Zhao asked, "Can I meet the other people you said now?"
Ye Yuxing said happily: "Naturally, naturally! They have been waiting to see the little master for a long time! I'll take you there."
The mechanism was activated, and a dark room appeared in front of Shen Zhao.
Entering the dark room, activating the mechanism again, the secret door opened, turning around along the dark passage, passing through several rooms, opening the last door, and the scene in front of me suddenly opened up.
This is an open underground square, surrounded by houses, and divided into two parts, one part is the martial arts arena, and the other is the training place.
At this time, dozens of people were practicing. new
Shen looked at their moves and didn't speak.
Ye Yuxing didn't urge, waited quietly for Shen Zhao, and after a long while, he asked, "What does the little master think?"
"Good." Shen Zhao tried hard to suppress the excitement in his heart.
Ye Yuxing raised his voice and said, "Let's stop first."
Ye Yuxing's volume was not loud, but it was enough for everyone present to hear it clearly, and this internal force should not be underestimated.
When everyone heard this, they stopped the training in their hands as soon as they heard this, and turned towards Ye Yuxing in a neat manner, waiting for his orders.
Ye Yuxing's emotions were a little excited, "Brothers, we have been practicing for a long time, from today onwards, we don't have to lie dormant anymore!"
Everyone's faces couldn't help but show joy.
Ye Yuxing introduced to everyone: "Brothers, this is our little master, His Royal Highness King Jing!"
The eyes of everyone looking at Shen Zhao suddenly became extremely excited.
"See the little master!" Everyone knelt down in unison and called to Shen Zhao.
They belong to the Bai family of the Zhenguo Mansion, not to the imperial court, and in the future, they will be the people of the little masters.
Shen Zhao raised his hand and said calmly, "Get up."
Glancing at everyone, Shen Zhao said unhurriedly: "In the future, what I want to do is extremely dangerous, if I take one wrong step, I may lose my life, are you afraid?"
Ye Yuxing looked at Shen Zhao in surprise.
The depth of the little master's skills far exceeded his expectations.
Everyone said in unison, "Don't be afraid! No regrets!"
"Chu Chengchi is here, thank you." Shen Zhao bowed to everyone.
Shen Zhao turned to Ye Yuxing and said, "I need some people now, help me connect with another part of the people, and I want to meet the person in charge of Fushou City's intelligence."
"I'll arrange it for the little master, please wait a while." Ye Yuxing said to Shen Zhao.
"Why don't you go and rest first?"
Shen Zhao shook his head, "No need, I want to see their training here."
A few secret guards, you push me, I push you, and my eyes look at Shen Zhao from time to time, very embarrassed.
Seeing this, Shen Zhao walked over curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Xuan Yi, who was the leader, said boldly, "Little master, they want to compete with the little master!"
A few people immediately glared at him, and they were actually sold?
Xuan Yu immediately said, "Xuan Yi is the one who wants to learn from the little master the most!"
Others: "Yes, yes!"
Xuan Yi glared at those people fiercely, but was greeted with gloating eyes.
This group of people is really ......
Xuan Yi scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Little master, we didn't mean to offend you, we just ......
Shen Zhao didn't have any anger on his face, and said with a smile, "I know, come on."
He remembered that when his cousins were in the barracks, if there was no fighting, they would allow it
At that time, there was no distinction between respect and inferiority, only between high and low martial arts.
The barracks especially likes to challenge the new young generals, first, there is not much difference in age, they are all bloody men, and second,
Xuan Yi's eyes lit up, and the others couldn't help but cheer.
The two came to the martial arts arena, and Xuan Yi hugged Shen Zhao with a fist, "Please teach the little master."
Shen Zhao couldn't hold back his excitement, "You can't let your subordinates show mercy."
He has studied with Meng Kun for so long, and he has not actually fought in actual combat, and he also wants to know how many catties and taels his current strength is.
"Yes!"
The two did not use internal force, but directly fought with the agility of moves and reactions.
Shen Zhao's fist almost reached Xuan Yi's face, but when there was still a fist away, he was caught by Xuan Yi's hand and couldn't go even an inch further.
Xuanyi swept his leg to fight back.
Shen Zhao raised his feet to dodge, and at the same time threw Xuan Yi up with the hands that the two of them had joined together.
Xuan Yi was thrown into the air, and with the help of the power of the stone pillar next to him, he rushed towards Shen Zhao again, and when he was in front of him, he turned his fist into a palm.
Shen Zhao turned sideways and raised his hand to meet the counterattack.
The two have been battling each other for nearly 50 rounds, and it is impossible to tell who is superior.
When Ye Yuxing came back, the two had not finished fighting.
Watching the two of them fight, Ye Yuxing was not surprised.
He knew that this group of boys would definitely not be able to help but want to learn from the little master.
It's just a little master......
According to the little master, he remembered that it wasn't long before he remembered what had happened before, and he didn't practice martial arts again until he came to Fushou City.
It can also be seen from his moves that his actual combat adaptability is a little rusty, so in front of Xuan Yi, who has rich experience in actual combat, Xuan Yi has found a gap to shoot several times.
But his strength lies in the fact that after he was found by Xuan Yi once, he would pay attention to this place, and Xuan Yi couldn't find a second chance to start, so he had to start from other places.
Very adaptable.
His foundation is even better.
Ye Yuxing's eyes were full of admiration when he looked at him.
"Boss Ye, do you think Xuan Yi can win?" Xuan Yu asked Ye Yuxing.
Ye Yuxing smiled and didn't answer positively, but instead said, "What do you think?"
Xuan Yu stroked his chin and said, "In terms of martial arts alone, the current little master is slightly better than Xuan Yi, but Xuan Yi's actual combat experience is much richer than that of the little master, it's hard to say, it's hard to say, but if time passes, the little master may be slightly defeated."
Ye Yuxing smiled and said, "This is a little master, although his actual combat experience is insufficient, but this battle, isn't it just accumulating actual combat experience for him?"
"Accumulate while fighting? Boss Ye, don't bully me for not reading much." Xuan Yu pouted.
Ye Yuxing just smiled, "We'll wait and see, if you lose, promise me to do something."
Xuan Yu happily agreed: "Okay, if you lose, you have to promise me one thing."
"Okay."
Make a bet, and the two continue to watch the game.
The fight between Shen Zhao and Xuan Yi was half an hour, and the two had to separate the winners and losers several times halfway, but either Xuan Yi used experience to win back a game, or Shen Zhao saved a city by surprise.
Everyone was delighted to watch.
I don't know how many rounds of fighting, in the end, Shen Zhao looked for an opportunity and kicked at Xuan Yi, but his hand grabbed his neck from the other direction.
This trick is a foregone conclusion.
The two returned to their positions, and Xuan Yi hugged his fists at Shen Zhao and said, "The little master is good at kung fu, but I lost."
Shen Zhao also clenched his fists at him, "This battle is very painful."
Warm applause immediately erupted around the arena.
Xuan Yi is the best martial artist among them, and he is also their leader.
Shen Zhao relied on his own strength to defeat Xuan
Yi, when everyone wants to follow him in the future, they will be more convinced, not just because of his identity.
Ye Yuxing looked at Xuan Yu.
Xuanyu: "......"
"Little master, everyone else is ready." Ye Yuxing stepped forward and said to Shen Zhao.
"Okay." Shen Zhao went with Ye Yuxing.
Xuan Yi looked at the back of Shen Zhao leaving, and his eyes flashed with excitement.
After that, they will no longer be ownerless!
Moreover, their masters, very powerful!
"Xuanyi, Xuanyu, you also come." Ye Yuxing's voice came.
The two of them immediately walked quickly.
There were two people sitting in the room, and as soon as they saw Shen Zhao, they immediately got up and saluted him.
Ye Yuxing introduced to him: "Little master, this person is in charge of the intelligence in Fushou City, Su Wei, this person is in charge of the connection between Fushou City and the outside world, Su Ling."
Su Wei and Su Ling saluted Shen Zhao again.
"You can tell the little master about the current situation in Fushou City." Ye Yuxing said.
The two nodded, and introduced in turn: "Now the situation in the city is dominated by Zuo Hui, supplemented by the prefect, and about thirty percent of the businesses in the city directly obey their orders, and another fifty percent of the businesses have some relationship with them, and ......."
Su Wei looked at the map and circled some important mansions for Shen Zhao, as well as some important character relationships, and also listed them in detail for him.
After Su Wei finished introducing, Su Ling said: "There are mainly two armies stationed near Fushou City, and the one directly under the jurisdiction of Fushou City is the Fushou City Army, which is under the orders of General Chen Jiating, and is stationed in the military camp ten miles outside the city, with about five thousand people. A little further away is the subordinate army of Jiangnan Province, which is ordered by the governor of Nanzawa Mingdu, numbering about 50,000 people, and is stationed about sixty miles from Fushou Castle."
"What is the position of these two men?" Shen Zhao asked.
"Chen Jiating only obeys Zuo Hui's orders, and Nan Zeming obeys His Majesty's orders." Su Ling said.
Shen Zhao looked at him lightly: "Obey Your Majesty's orders, or obey Zuo Ye's orders?"
Although the current court is still the court of the Chu family, it is no different from the court of the Zuo family.
"At Your Majesty's command." Su Ling said, "Nan Zeming is a relatively old-fashioned person, who only recognizes the emperor's orders, and doesn't recognize the rest."
After a pause, Su Ling had the courage to say to Shen Zhao, "This person doesn't care who is sitting on the throne, he only respects the holy order."
"I see." Shen Zhao nodded in response.
Ye Yuxing said to him, "What to do next, listen to the little master's arrangement."
Shen Zhao thought for a moment and said, "There are three things that you need to help with now."
"Little master, please speak!" Su Wei and Su Ling immediately said.
Shen Zhao said, "First of all, I need the position of all the officials and wealthy merchants in Fushou City, as well as the connection with the capital; The second thing is that I have a few people who need to help me find them, and they are currently dormant in the capital; The third thing, I need to know about the situation in the north, and that can be said after the second thing."
"Yes!" Several people responded excitedly.
Ye Yuxing asked, "Can I take the liberty of asking, ......who are the people the little master is looking for?"
Shen Zhao didn't plan to hide it: "They are an intelligence network about the capital that I tossed out back then, but they were too young and their ability was not enough at that time, and this intelligence network was only in its embryonic form, so I plan to restart this intelligence network now."
Before doing things, we must first grasp the information of all parties, so that we can more effectively prescribe the right medicine and make it easier to hit the target with one hit.
When several people heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and there was indescribable excitement in their hearts.
Su Wei and Su Ling both had their own errands, and Xuan Yi and Xuan Yu couldn't help but ask, "Little master, what about us?"
