The four words "chaotic ministers and thieves" carry a lot of weight.

Even the people in the rivers and lakes who despise the government and ignore the law in vain are unwilling to bear this great crime of abandoning their ancestors and abandoning their ancestors.

People in the rivers and lakes, especially those who are righteous, attach the most importance to the reputation of the festival. If you are branded as a "chaotic minister and thief", you will not only ruin your own life, but also harm future generations. Thousands of people pointed out, thousands of people scolded, and it was difficult for generations to raise their heads and be people.

Most of the people in the rivers and lakes have a clear attitude towards the imperial court and the government, and the well water does not interfere with the river water. Disdain, but will not be easily provoked, and I am most afraid that the government will give me a big hat of "chaotic ministers and thieves".

The world of those who win the hearts of the people. Sometimes, it is not only the imperial court that needs the support of the people, but also the support of the people if the forces of the rivers and lakes want to prosper for a long time.

For example, Tianlong City under Shaolin Mountain, Phoenix City under Wudang Mountain, Jingjiang Mansion under Jinjianwu, and Luoyang City under Xianwang's Mansion...... The local people are blessed by the forces of the rivers and lakes, so they will naturally provide for them.

After all, no matter how powerful a master is, he is a flesh-and-blood person, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, and he also has to dress and eat.

At the beginning, Luo Tianjin would rather die than submit to the Mongolian court, precisely for this reason.

Although traitors can gain glory and wealth, the blood of the Han people flowing in their bones will be completely cut off. A hundred years later, what face will you have to see your ancestors and ancestors?

Tonight, Yu Wenxiu's sentence of "chaotic ministers and thieves" undoubtedly poked Luo Tianjin's weakness. Especially the signboard of the Son of Heaven of the Great Song Dynasty's "Wulin Hou", which made him have to scruple and give three points.

Jianghu people can be disloyal, disrespectful or even disdainful of the emperor, but they must not rebel.

The idea of loyalty, like the blood of the Han people, flows naturally in the bones. Whether you admit it or not, you can never get rid of it.

"Got it!"

Xie Xuan looked at the official seal in Yuwen Xiu's hand, and suddenly realized: "No wonder the six major heads and the four masters of the family retreated from the battle, it turned out that they were motivated by wisdom to protect themselves. To oppose you is to oppose the court and the emperor. Once you are given a sufficient reason, you will soon be able to justifiably come to the city and do whatever you want under the banner of 'counterinsurgency'. ”

"The old man will not be so cruel, let alone so reckless. Yuwen Xiu said with a smile, "I was born in the rivers and lakes, I know the rules of the rivers and lakes, I will win the martial arts alliance leader in the martial arts conference in a dignified manner, so that the ambitions of the group will be convinced." ”

"I really didn't expect that you would become an eagle dog of the imperial court, even more unbearable than your senior brother. Luo Tianjin said contemptuously, "However, the twisted melon is not sweet." You rely on the support of the imperial court, you can be majestic for a while, but it is difficult to be majestic for a lifetime. The reason why they compromise easily is not to give in to you, but because they have never had the heart to fight, so it doesn't matter whether they fight or not. ”

Liu Xunyi suddenly interjected: "Actually, it's not that he is not cruel, but he has no cruelty capital. ”

"How do you say that?" Xie Xuan looked suspicious.

"If the emperor wants to send troops to besiege and kill the forces in the rivers and lakes, how can he do more than that? The real intention of the imperial court is to recruit An, and Wu Linhou is just a puppet, in fact, he can't mobilize a single soldier. Liu Xunyi said, "He talked rhetorically and opened his mouth, just to clear the obstacles and make it easier for him to compete for the position of the leader of the alliance." ”

Liu Xunyi knew in his heart that the backer behind Yuwenxiu must be the Privy Council, not the Great Song Emperor.

Now, the East Mansion is pushing Luo Tianjin to ascend to the throne of the alliance leader, and the West Mansion is worried that the East Mansion will monopolize the credit, so it is forced to intervene, one is to grab the merit in front of the emperor, and the other is to incorporate the Jianghu forces after Zhao'an into the West Mansion to expand its strength.

Xifu's move is undoubtedly to sabotage the plan that Dongfu has been planning for many years. Therefore, Liu Xunyi must not let Yuwen Xiu succeed, let alone let Luo Tianjin give up the idea of fighting for the master.

Another reason why Liu Xunyi dared to attack Yuwenxiu was that he knew that Yuwenxiu's "Wulin Hou" was by no means the emperor's edict, but a private grant from the Privy Council.

Two years ago, the emperor issued a holy decree that the affairs of the Central Plains martial arts should be handed over to the East Mansion, and the West Mansion was not allowed to interfere without authorization.

Therefore, Yuwenxiu's official was sealed by Xifu, not by the emperor. This is also the real reason why Liu Xunyi is confident that Yuwen Xiu can only put on a posture and move his mouth, but it is impossible to mobilize a single soldier.

Yuwen Xiu is bluffing, the fox is fake and the tiger is powerful, he can bluff the six major sects and the four great families who don't know the truth, and even can bluff Luo Tianjin and Jin Fuyu, making them jealous and dare not act rashly, but they can't frighten Liu Xunyi, who has already seen through everything.

It's a pity that this section is related to the secrets of the imperial court, and with Liu Xunyi's identity today, he naturally can't find out to Luo Tianjin.

Sure enough, as soon as Liu Xunyi's words came out, Yu Wenxiu, who was confident, couldn't help but change his eyes, and threatened with a smile: "Young man, beware of your greed for the pleasure of your tongue, and the entire Xianwang Mansion will suffer for you." ”

"No one will suffer from this, except for Peach Blossom Sword Island. Liu Xunyi said firmly, "Lord Yuwen Island, if you can't sit in the position of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance in the end, you must be in front of the imperial court...... Instead of worrying about us, it's better to think of a way out for yourself. After all, the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance ...... It's more likely that you're old and won't be able to fight. ”

"Lord Luofu, this son doesn't know the height of the sky, and his mouth is crazy, it's really ridiculous. Yuwen Xiu set his eyes on Luo Tianjin, who was speechless, and said faintly, "The master of the Xianwang Mansion has always been surnamed 'Luo', once a catastrophe comes, outsiders can climb another high branch without much loss." You are the lord of the Keluo Mansion...... What will be lost will be his own net worth and life. ”

"Yuwen Island Lord, you moved out a 'big mountain' that can crush people to death, just to force the Mansion Lord to compromise with you. Liu Xunyi sneered, "However, the mansion master has just said that the reason why the six major masters and the four family masters compromised is because they have no intention of competing for the lord at all. But the lord of my family is different, and he is bound to win the position of the leader of the alliance, how can you shake it with a few words? The six major sects and the four great families are still not afraid of your 'official authority', so why should King Beixian be afraid?"

Liu Xunyi's words seem to refute Yu Wenxiu, but in fact, he said Yu Luo Tianjin. Especially the last sentence, it seems to be a trick.

"Lord Luofu, you should know that tonight is not the old man negotiating with you, but the imperial court wants you to know the current affairs. Yuwen Xiu still ignored Liu Xunyi, and said directly to Luo Tianjin, "In the past, you had the full support of the six major sects behind you, and you spoke naturally hard. But now is different from the past, the heads of the six major sects are all 'loyal ministers and righteous men' who understand the general situation and take the overall situation into account, if the lord of Luofu insists on going his own way, even if he will not become a 'chaotic minister and thief', he will become a 'lonely man'. Even if you are alone, what is the chance for the Lord of Luofu to compete for the Lord of the Martial Arts Alliance?"

"Without the interference of the six major sects and the four great families, the only people who can compete with the master of my family are the master of the Golden Sword Dock, and the odds of winning are greater than before. Counting it, I also have to thank the owner of Yuwen Island for his painstaking mediation. Liu Xunyi continued, "Moreover, the six major sects and the four great families are not the 'loyal ministers and righteous men' in your mouth. Don't forget, they only promised you not to fight for the position of alliance leader, but they did not promise you to accept the court's recruitment. Why did they do this? It's just because they believe that even if they don't make a move, the title of Martial Arts Alliance Master will never fall to your head. ”

As if he was irritated by Liu Xunyi's repeated cynicism, Yuwen Xiu's peaceful eyes suddenly flashed a bone-chilling chill, and his sharp gaze immediately turned into two sharp swords, shooting directly at Liu Xunyi.

"Ahem!"

Suddenly, Luo Tianjin, who was silent in thought, coughed lightly, breaking the tense atmosphere between Yuwen Xiu and Liu Xunyi, and said indifferently: "There is one thing I am very curious about, why don't you go to Jingjiang Mansion to persuade Jin Fuyu to stop, but come to Luoyang City to force me to compromise?"

Yuwen Xiu slowly moved his gaze away from Liu Xunyi, and said in a deep voice: "Why does the lord of Luofu ask knowingly? Jin Fuyu is called a Han person, and he is actually the queen of the Jin Kingdom. Even if the imperial court recruits peace, it will never accept his submission to prevent the tiger from being in trouble. ”

"In that case, Jin Fuyu wants to compete for the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, what about you?" Luo Tianjin asked with great interest, "You have done so many things with all your heart, is it just to save Jin Fuyu to the end and fight fairly with you?"

"It's better to deal with one than to deal with ten. Yuwen Xiu said undeniably, "Besides, if the Lord of the Luo Mansion and the martial arts heroes are willing to help the old man......"

"Haha......"

Before Yuwen Xiu's words fell, Luo Tianjin suddenly laughed out loud, making him suspicious.

"What is Lord Luo Fu laughing at?"

"I laugh at you for being too naïve, do you really think that if you move out of the Great Song Dynasty, Luo will obediently comply?"

As for this, Luo Tianjin's eyes suddenly froze, and he said in a deep voice: "As Liu Xunyi said, I am bound to win this martial arts conference, and no one wants to stop it." Don't say that you are here to persuade you, even if the emperor arrives, Luo's mind will not be shaken in the slightest. The government is the government, the rivers and lakes are the rivers and lakes, and everyone should be clear and go their own way. Now, if the imperial court wants to intervene in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, it must show its true ability, so as to convince the public. Such a coercion and temptation like you, and the shameless behavior imposed on others by 'chaotic ministers and thieves' at every turn, don't say that Luo will not agree, and no hero in the world will give in. Now, the six major schools and the four great families have temporarily compromised, just postponing and waiting for the times to change. ”

"Lord Luofu, the old man is kind enough to show you the way, you don't know what to do!"

"I got it. However, Luo is used to walking at night, and the clear road you pointed, I am afraid that I will not be blessed. Luo Tianjin said indifferently, "In the Dragon Boat Festival, I used Peach Blossom Sword Island to calm disputes. Today, you send the coffin to humiliation, Luo is not to blame for the past, you and I will be even, and we will not owe each other. If you want to compete for the leader of the martial arts alliance, you can compete with the heroes of the world at the top of Jiuhua Mountain in early September, and you don't have to be alarmist in private. Paganism is always heresy, and it is necessary to do some shady deeds!"

"Luo Tianjin, you ......"

"The mansion is shabby and shabby, and I don't dare to leave Lord Yuwen overnight. Come on, send off!"

Luo Tianjin unceremoniously ordered the eviction of the guest, and then suddenly got up, and under Yu Wenxiu's gloomy gaze, he walked straight towards the back hall.
