ο»Ώ
"Come, let me introduce you, these two adults are my parents on the ground in Sichuan, this is Lord Wei Zhengxing, the political envoy of Sichuan, and this is Lord Sun Changxu, the envoy of Sichuan. Lord Wei, Lord Sun, these are the heads of the various sects in the Central Plains. This is Master Mu Yun, the abbot master of Shaolin, this is the master of Tangjiabao in Tangjiabao, Tangmen, Sichuan, and this one, this is the leader of the beggar gang Xie Gang leader, and the leader of the Taihu Gang, Bai Yuwei and Brother Bai......"
Zhu Wenyu introduced with great interest while pointing, while Mu Yun Xie Fei and the others bowed again, saying, "I've seen Lord Wei, Lord Sun." He didn't say a word.
Wei Zhengxing's face was full of unnaturalness, these people in front of him were all from the Central Plains martial arts, and they were all top-notch characters of one sect and one faction, but from the perspective of the government, they were just white-bodied grass people with no merit, not to mention that since ancient times, "chivalry is forbidden by martial arts", maybe when it will become the opponent of the imperial court, the local chaotic party, as a member of the imperial court and a feudal official, how can he make friends with these ninth-rate characters? It's just that Zhu Wenyu is still introduced one by one, and as the deputy commander of the imperial court Jinyiwei, although the grade is not as high as his own Zhengsanpin, everyone knows that Jinyiwei is the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, and the leaders of Jinyiwei are all close ministers of the Son of Heaven, not to mention that Zhu Wenyu is still wearing the brand of a minister, and he can't afford to offend easily in any way, so although he is full of reluctance, he has to smile patiently with Zhu Wenyu's introduction and bow his hand one by one. Sun Changxu is not like Wei Zhengxing, he was born in the army, his temperament is much more bold, and he also knows that most of these people in the martial arts in front of him are heroes in the rivers and lakes, so he naturally respects them very much, and he will never dare to slack off, but thinking of the disdainful contempt that Wei Zhengxing has on weekdays when he talks about these characters in the rivers and lakes, and then looks at the unnatural stiff smile on his face at this time, he really feels funny in his heart, but he doesn't dare to show it at all, and finally can't hold back, and greet the heroes one by one, but the smile on his face is more sincere than that of Lord Wei next to him.
Finally introduced the heads of each faction clearly, Zhu Wenyu said again: "Master Abbot, Lord Tangbao, Gang Master Xie, everyone has been on the boat for several days, let's go to the mansion first." β
Originally, it was quite reluctant to greet each other with court officials such as Wei Zhengxing and Sun Changxu, so how could he follow him to "sit" in the Chongqing Mansion at this time? Sure enough, Mu Yun first saluted first: "Amitabha, Zhu Shaoxia, the matter of the Tianyi Alliance is over, and it is not worth the trip." We Buddhists should have meditated and practiced Buddhism in the monastery, and when we went out to walk, we should go back to the temple to chant and worship the Buddha. The young man's kindness is understood, and he will take his disciples back to the temple, so it is inconvenient to disturb the young man and the two adults. Old Na hereby resigns to the young man. β
"Master, this is leaving? This time, the masters have come from afar, and it is very hard, why don't you rest in Chongqing for a few more days before leaving? If the master finds the government inconvenient, he can find a larger temple in Chongqing to live in. Zhu Wenyu was slightly disappointed.
"Amitabha, this trip to Tianyi Valley was all contributed by Shaoxia and others, Lao Na watched from the sidelines, and he never made any contributions, how dare he be so kind to Shaoxia again? The people in the temple really don't dare to be restrained. It's just that this time out of the temple has been a long time, and a lot of disciples have been wasted, and Lao Na can't rest assured that some mundane affairs in the temple will not bother Shaoxia. On this matter, I bid farewell to Shaoxia, Shaoxia will be reused by the imperial court to destroy the Tianyi Alliance today, and I hope that Shaoxia can understand the painstaking efforts of all factions in the Central Plains martial arts, and add more items from it, so as to avoid unnecessary disputes between the imperial court and the Central Plains martial arts. Amitabha. Mu Yun said as he spoke, and bowed deeply to Zhu Wenyu.
"The master is serious." Zhu Wenyu was startled and hurriedly said: "Although Zhu Wenyu serves in the imperial court, he is still a martial artist, and he will do his best." β
"Amitabha, thank you Shaoxia, Lao Na farewell." Mu Yun said that he bowed to Wei Zhengxing and Sun Changxu, turned around, and the second-generation Shaolin disciples behind hurriedly followed, and a group of more than ten people walked to the other side, and walked to the place guarded by the soldiers, and the saber soldiers hurriedly got out of the way, letting them disappear into the streets and alleys by the dock.
"These bald monks ......" Wei Zhengxing was born in the imperial examination, and he didn't have a good impression of the empty door of Shidao, seeing that Mu Yun and other monks clearly did not buy the account of their own third-grade members of the imperial court, they only said a few words to Zhu Wenyu and left, Rao is cultivation is quite good on weekdays, but he also has some faces that can't help but hate. After only half of the words, he suddenly felt that Sun Changxu next to him quietly pulled his sleeve, turned his head and saw Zhu Wenyu glance back at himself, and hurriedly retracted the second half of the sentence.
Zhu Wenyu turned his head, and Tie Feng also walked over and said, "Uncle Zhu, Tie Feng also bid you farewell." β
"Is the Taoist going to leave too?" Zhu Wenyu was stunned for a moment and blurted out.
"Exactly, the master is newly mourned, and Tie Feng must serve the master to turn back to Wudang, and he dare not delay." Since the death of Qingfeng, Tie Feng can be described as extremely grief-stricken, so that he is sluggish and reluctantly saluted.
"Oh. Then I'll send you. β
"I don't dare to work for my uncle, I just hope that my uncle will not forget the last wish of his ancestors, never forget the old feelings, and glorify the lintel of Wudang. Tie Feng took his leave. β
"I understand below, the Tao is easy to walk." Zhu Wenyu said helplessly.
Then, even Tang Yanxiong, the lord of Tangjiabao Fort in Tangmen, and Zhu Weifeng, the head of the Huashan faction, also said goodbye.
Zhu Wenyu has understood that the heroes have made up their minds, and they no longer say much, and they will say goodbye one by one.
Bai Yuwei, the leader of the Taihu Gang "Flying Fish in the Waves", was originally from Xiucai, but he was not as avoidant as Mu Yunqingfeng and others to the government like a snake and scorpion, but he was also a little uncomfortable when he saw the two court officials here, and explained to Zhu Wenyu that he would go back to the inn first, and then drink and chant poetry and have fun, so he also led a few of his subordinates to leave.
For a while, the group of heroes who accompanied them were almost clean, leaving only a few injured people from the captured Tianyi League, and placed them on the ground, Zhu Wenyu hurriedly signaled Sun Changxu to arrange for soldiers to escort them to the Chongqing Mansion Prison, and told a few good students to take care of them, not to let them escape.
In addition to receiving the order to clean up those people from the Tianyi Alliance, Sun Changxu mostly stood aside with Wei Zhengxing, the political envoy, without saying a word, just coldly watching the heroes of each faction leave one by one, without hindrance.
"Wen Yu." Seeing that the group of heroes was almost gone, Zhao Min also walked over.
"Master, Master, you better take your younger brothers and sisters back to the inn first, and I will come back after talking to Lord Sun and Master Wei." Zhu Wenyu knew what he meant, and said before Zhao Min spoke.
"Well, okay, you come back early, Master and Master have something to say to you." Zhao Min advised, "Got it, Master." Zhu Wenyu agreed: "Wood, you also accompany my master and them back to the inn first, and Eagle and Yun'er can go with me." β
Nangong Ling agreed, and slowly left with Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min's family.
Chaotianmen Wharf, which was originally quite lively because of a few boats, suddenly seemed deserted as the heroes left, leaving only Sun Changxu, Wei Zhengxing, Zhu Wenyu and a few people in the desert standing there alone, as well as the soldiers under Sun Changxu who stood solemnly with their swords but did not say a word.
"Let's go." Zhu Wenyu watched the master and his entourage disappear into the corner of the street, sighed slightly, turned around and said, "Lord Wei, please, old ...... Lord Sun, please. In a casual way, he almost called out the words "old grandson".
The desert was unheard, but Tang Yun almost laughed out loud.
"Lord Zhu, please." Wei and Sun hurriedly responded with a salute.
Originally Wei Zhengxing was going to get a sedan chair, or Sun Changxu told him that Lord Qincha Zhu didn't like to sit in a sedan chair, and he was "going out to suppress bandits" and "returning to the court after victory", so it was appropriate to have some "military might", and Wei Zhengxing agreed to prepare horses to meet him.
This Chongqing Mansion was originally the head of the former Chongqing prefect Qin Changde, but Qin Changde is the deputy leader of the Tianyi League, Feng Heyuan, who has died on the sacrificial platform under the sword of Yu Shixiong, the head of the Qingcheng faction, "Ruyi Sword", and now the post of prefect is vacant.
"Congratulations to Lord Chincha on his victorious return from the suppression of the bandits." As soon as he sat down, Wei Zhengxing stood up again and saluted Zhu Wenyu, so panicked that Sun Changxu also hurriedly stood up and saluted. Sun Changxu as a Sichuan envoy, and the political envoy Wei Zhengxing is one article and one martial arts, the rank is no different, it can be said that he is an official in the same place, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior, but Wei Zhengxing is to congratulate Zhu Wenyu with the gift of his subordinates at this time, if he does not get up to congratulate him, he will be suspected of lack of courtesy, and he is very taboo in the officialdom.
"Hehe, don't dare, don't dare, it's all thanks to today's holy blessings, the small Xiao is the head, and the people can live in peace, Zhu is just doing the work of dogs and horses for the emperor." This kind of officialdom clichΓ© Zhu Wenyu can say it casually without using any brains, although he is about to vomit after listening to it too much, he also blurts it out involuntarily.
"Lord Zhu is really too modest, long live, the wise and martial arts are thousands of miles away." Wei Zhengxing arched his hand as he spoke: "Order Lord Qincha to clear out the bandits, Lord Qincha is capable, so that he can live up to his holy order and wipe out the chaotic party." But I don't know when Lord Qincha will set off to return to Beijing to restore his life? After that, he looked at Zhu Wenyu.
"Me? It's not decided yet, it's not over yet, let's talk about it when it's done. Zhu Wenyu was stunned, he really didn't think about returning to the capital immediately.
"Why did Lord Chincha say that?" Wei Zhengxing hurriedly said: "The Holy Lord ordered Lord Zhu to return to Beijing immediately after clearing the bandits, and there is no delay. As for the aftermath, the adults just have to rest assured, there are Xiaguan and Lord Sun to handle it together, and the adults still have the order to start as soon as possible, if it is against the holy order, the lower officials and Lord Sun are not easy to explain. β
Zhu Wenyu didn't understand why Wei Zhengxing was in such a hurry to let him go, but it was not easy to dismiss what he said so high-soundingly, so he had to nod and said: "This official has his own measure, thank you Lord Wei for reminding me." I was a little unhappy in my heart, and I naturally spoke with a bit of an official tone.
