When Emperor Wu of Liang and Feng Xiang were talking in the Funing Palace, although they had dispersed all their subordinates, they did not expect that Lin Gongcheng would pass by outside the palace, and the latter would take in the content of the secret conversation between the two. Gonggong Lin thought for a moment, suddenly sighed, and said to himself: "Long Qian, Feng Xiang, let's do the last thing for the first emperor." At this thought, Gonggong Lin walked back to his residence, and no one knew where he was.

On this day, Lu Daoquan and his wife were idle at home, and suddenly heard the voices of people outside the house, and hurriedly came out to check, only to see a large team of people parked outside the house, and the leader was Lu An, who was in the dust, and saw Lu Daoquan and his wife, Lu An couldn't get tired, jumped out of the carriage, and said: "I have seen the lord and the lady, and the villain has brought all the family members in Yuzhou City according to the master's instructions." ”

Lu Daoquan looked confused and asked, "My orders?" ”

Lu An replied: "A few days ago, an adult from the palace came to the house, claiming to be a protégé of Master Jiang, saying that the master had settled down in Beijing, and specially ordered the villain to bring other family members to the capital to serve the master and his wife. As he spoke, he handed over a handwritten message, "This is Lord Jiang's handwritten message, and I ask the master to look at it." ”

Lu Daoquan took the edict, only to see the words "Taishifu Fire Seal" printed in the lower left corner, but after all, he had just entered the capital, where did he recognize Jiang Qing's handwriting, naturally he couldn't distinguish the authenticity, and when he was puzzled, two carriages slowly drove from the alley and stopped in front of the Lu Mansion. ”

Seeing this, Lu Daoquan stepped forward quickly, helped Jiang Qing out of the carriage, made a salute, and said, "Xiaguan has seen Lord Jiang, I don't know what your lordship is?" ”

Jiang Qing tapped Lu Daoquan with his finger, the smile on his face did not decrease, and said, "Virtuous nephew, virtuous nephew, your luck is really good!" A few days ago, you admonished in the palace, although Your Majesty was unhappy on his face, but he was very happy in his heart, if I want to be strong and prosperous, it depends on you who dare to speak out, and it is Your Majesty who is extraordinarily gracious, and authorizes you to set up a banquet in the house tonight, rewarding one hundred taels of gold, and at the same time specially ordering the official to send your family in Yuzhou to pick it up and wash the dust for you. As he spoke, he pointed to the carriage behind him and said, "No, Your Majesty also specially dispatched three imperial chefs from the palace for you to set up a banquet tonight, but Your Majesty suffered from the wind and cold a few days ago, and I am afraid that I will not be able to come in person tonight, so I am specially appointed to convey the holy will." ”

Lu Daoquan was stunned for a moment, then took three steps back and knelt on the ground: "Minister Lu Daoquan thanks Lord Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live." In the future, the minister will do his best, and he is willing to serve His Majesty. ”

Jiang Qing helped Lu Daoquan up and said with a smile: "Nephew Lu Xian, Your Majesty is virtuous, it is a fortunate thing for us to be courtiers, since you have the blue eyes of Your Majesty, you will definitely serve the court well in the future, be loyal to Your Majesty, don't live up to the kindness of the saint." ”

"The Tao should be kept in mind." Lu Daoquan said, and he wanted to salute again, but was stopped by Jiang Qing first, and the latter smiled: "Virtuous nephews don't need to be polite, if this bending down and kneeling has developed a habit, the arrogance of the literati will be worn out sooner or later, and the official still has important matters, so don't bother much, you take your subordinates to prepare the dinner first, and we will see you tomorrow morning." ”

After sending Jiang Qing away, Mrs. Lu walked to Lu Dao's side with her son in her arms, and said softly: "It seems that the master is too worried, Your Majesty understands the righteousness, and will definitely not embarrass the master because of some trivial things, don't you order Lord Jiang to prepare these surprises for you." Lu Daoquan also echoed: "Yes, with such a Ming Jun, I must repay my husband well, so that my Liang will be more prosperous!" ”

But it was said that Cao Qiong took Xiao Lu Xiong and rushed towards the territory of Chu non-stop, except for Yang Xiu and others who were slightly blocked along the way, there was no more incident, but along the way, this little doll really tortured Cao Qiong unspeakably, after all, it was a baby who had just been born, although the bones were amazing, but still needed to be breastfed, once he was hungry, he cried, Rao is Cao Qiong's cultivation for Tongtian, and he was helpless about it, at first he could only ask for some milk with a shy old face and the village women along the way, but Cao Qiong in order to avoid provoking people's eyes, After hearing Cao Qiong's request, the woman immediately crossed her waist and glared, waking up the man who had already fallen asleep to teach this old man a lesson, fortunately, Lu Xiongsheng's pink carving, after hearing the cry, the woman was motherly, so she finally gave a meal of milk, and still did not forget to look at Cao Qiong during the period.

In the next few days, Cao Qiong didn't want to do this anymore, and when he saw that Lu Xiong was hungry, he caught some wild deer that had just given birth in the mountains, and finally didn't starve the little Lu Xiong to death.

An old man and a young man kept going, and finally arrived in Chu State three days later, I didn't expect that the dignified master of Chu State Kendo would be so embarrassed by a newborn baby, but fortunately, Cao Qiong's residence was prosperous, and many young women of school age couldn't let go of Lu Xiong, which made Cao Qiong breathe a sigh of relief, and he didn't have to worry about how to take care of the child.

At this moment, Cao Qiong is standing on the top of the mountain, his eyes are clear, and now standing here, he can also see the scene of Lu Xiong being surrounded by a group of village women on the mountainside, and he can't help but smile. Cao Qiong has been pursuing the pinnacle of kendo all his life, and now he doesn't dare to say that he is invincible all over the world, at least he is outstanding in kendo all the way, beating Li Xian and others, but he can think about it, if he is like others, marrying a wife and having children, and living a life in peace and stability, will there be such a warm scene of teasing Sun now?

Dispelling these thoughts out of his mind, Cao Qiong looked up to the sky and roared, straightened his chest, stretched out his hand to return the Feiying Sword, and laughed: "With these three-foot Qingfeng in hand, what do you want to do!" Then he soared upwards and swung a sword at the sky, this sword felt and was powerful, as if it was going to cut off the world! All the masters in the world were united at this moment, and they all sighed, and this Cao Qiong's kendo cultivation took a step further.

On the border of Baoyu Prefecture, a heavy city on the border of Great Chu, there is a nine-storey Wangjiang Tower, which is said to be Wangjiang, but as far as the eye can see, there is no river within a radius of 50 miles, and the surrounding area is covered by yellow sand, which makes it seem that this high-rise building is only a shadow. There are three hundred Chu elite soldiers stationed in the building all the year round, well-equipped, and dozens of martial arts masters are in charge.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Ce, who was over seventy years old but looked like he was in the prime of life, stepped on a pair of shabby straw sandals, sat on the Taishi chair, drank cheap apricot blossom wine one by one, and sat next to a strong middle-aged man.

Xuanyuan Ce picked up a jar of wine and handed it to the middle-aged man, the latter looked wooden, shook his head lightly and refused, Xuanyuan Ce knew this person's temperament, but he didn't force it, just smiled: "Then Cao Qiong is really old and strong, breaking through the realm of heaven and man in one fell swoop, I don't know how our military god feels?" ”

It turned out that this middle-aged man was the first person in the martial arts of the Great Chu Army, and he was also the important minister of the country with hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers. Hearing this, he just smiled and said: "In the realm of heaven and man, I am fascinated by it, I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up with Cao Qiong's pace for the rest of my life." ”

Xuanyuan Ce scolded with a smile: "You have excellent talents, you may not be as good as Cao Qiong, but Cao Qiong has no worries all his life, and he only has the word kendo in his heart, but you are entangled in mundane affairs, if you pursue martial arts wholeheartedly, what if you are Cao Qiong?" ”

Sikong pulled the corners of his mouth, noncommittal about this, and asked: "Dare to ask sir, can this Cao Qiong be called invincible in the world now?" ”

Xuanyuan Ce raised his head and drank a large sip of wine, spit out a mouthful of rich wine, and sneered: "Invincible? Not invincible! At the end of the martial arts, to put it bluntly, it is still in line with the way of heaven, and the martial arts prove that the Tao is still inferior in the end. The world is big, the martial arts are more than 10 million, Cao Qiong is indeed a standout in the way of the sword, but the people in the three sects are in line with the way of heaven, and they have a unique advantage, once they break through the bottleneck, even if the realm is not superior, or the means of killing are less inferior to the martial arts, with the help of the power of heaven and earth, Cao Qiong in the realm of heaven and man, there is still a seventy percent chance of winning. ”

Sikong snorted coldly and said: "Martial arts, I have always paid attention to water drops and stones, this group of small people who can only steal chickens and touch dogs are also worthy of being called saints?" If you are bumped into below, no matter what saints of the three religions you are, you will all be killed with one punch! ”

Xuanyuan Ce smiled, and didn't say a word about it, Sikong Li was already the same as Cao Qiong, and he took the path of preaching with strength, so he would naturally sneer at this group of three sect saints who stole the heavenly machine, and believed that with Sikong Li's thunderous means, even if he faced these people in the future, he would have the power to fight. Xuanyuan Ce didn't want to continue on this topic, so he said: "I heard that Cao Qiong went to Liang Country this time and brought back a baby boy, it seems that he is regarded as the heir of the mantle, I wonder if the ability of the god of war can be inherited?" ”

Sikong Li shook his head and replied, "I never asked about the aftermath before I was born, what kind of successor do I want?" ”

"Also, if you are ruthless and unrelated, you will naturally not seek a way out for yourself." Xuanyuan Ce drank another full cup, turned his head and said, "This Wangjiang Tower, now except for the old man, the owner of the dove occupying the magpie's nest, you are the only one in the entire Dachu who is willing to come and sit with me, that is, the old man's uncompetitive apprentice, who is now in a high position, still dare not come to see me, who is a master, is too petty, far inferior to his two junior brothers." Wangjianglou Wangjianglou, what the old man is looking at in his eyes is just the entire country, presumably you are looking at this river and lake! ”

Sikong pulled the corners of his mouth, and said loudly: "The emperor has no last resort, but this time he guessed not at all, in the eyes of the next eye, not only the rivers and lakes, but also the entire country!" ”

Xuanyuan Ce was stunned for a moment, and then laughed maniacally: "Good boy, the old man has underestimated you!" ”

Sikong Li stood up, clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "There is a lot of disturbance today, and there are important things to do, so I will leave first." ”

Xuanyuan Ce didn't hold back, waved his hand, and Sikong Li's figure flashed and disappeared in front of the former's eyes.

Xuanyuan Ce walked to the window alone, drank a jar of wine, and then fell to the ground drunk, muttering: "Lu Linyi, Qu Huaier, when the old man was one enemy and two enemies, he did not fall behind, and he helped the king of Chu to conquer this territory, although the Liang State was strong, he still couldn't swallow the Chu State for thirty years. Now that the Si people have passed away, the future temple dispute will be handed over to those young people, and see how the old man's three still competitive apprentices turn the clouds and rain! ”
