In this year, the Ming Emperor, who had not been in court for many years, began to go to court.

This year, the name of the year was changed to Yongkang.

In the year of Yongkang, the Daming Mansion newspaper was revised, and the officials began to spread the report to the township units.

In the second year of Yongkang, the Ming Emperor implemented a reform of the army, focusing on personal bravery, and gradually reining in military power, and strengthening his wrists.

In the third year of Yongkang, the Ming Emperor sent envoys to other countries, searched the four regions of the frontier, introduced sweet potatoes, potatoes and other crops, and encouraged production.

In July, the Imperial Palace Study.

Looking at Nong Junyan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard standing in front of him, the emperor sat behind the desk, and his fingers tapped on a book on the table, "Look at this thing." ”

Wei Huai hurriedly bowed down and took it and sent it to Nong Junyan, who took it with both hands.

I opened it and looked at it, and the more I looked at it, the more I frowned.

The emperor saw his expression, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea, and was not in a hurry to ask.

Nong Junyan took a deep breath and closed the book.

The emperor read it, "Done?"

"I'm done. Nong Junyan said respectfully.

"Tell me what you think?"

Nong Junyan thought for a moment and organized his language, "Your Majesty, if you do this, I'm afraid it will arouse strong opposition from all sects in the rivers and lakes?"

The emperor sneered, "So what? Whoever dares to take the lead will be slapped to death." ”

When Nong Junyan heard this, he was a little speechless, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, why don't we figure it out slowly?"

When the emperor heard this, he shook his head, "How can I have so much time, besides, I can't wait so long." ”

Nong Junyan opened his mouth and just wanted to speak.

The emperor waved his hand, "Okay, I have made up my mind, you can draft a statement according to this book and send it to all the Jianghu sects." In addition, the newspaper will also promote it to help you. ”

Nong Junyan listened, was slightly silent, bowed down and said, "Yes, Weichen will accept the order." ”

The Emperor waved his hand and motioned for him to stand down.

......

In August of Yongkang, the people of Daming learned a new thing from Di Bao.

That is the ancestor of Wudang, Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Xianren are still alive.

At the head of Lijia Village, several men gathered together and were chatting.

Li Laofu said: "Hey, you said that Zhang Immortal is still alive now, how old do you have to be?"

"I don't know, that's an immortal, alas, it's not very normal to live. Another villager from Lijia Village.

Li Laofu continued: "I heard from the people in the town who read the Di Bao that Zhang Xianren practiced something, oh, he practiced martial arts to live for so long. ”

"Martial arts, what are martial arts?" the villager asked.

"Then who knows, if I know where I can practice, I let the eldest grandson of the family also practice, so that I can become an immortal. ”

"Haha, Li Laofu, just your grandson, can you still put in your crotch at the age of ten, and you still want to become an immortal?"

Old Li Fu's face flushed, "Why can't you?" ”

Such discussions can be seen everywhere in the villages of Daming.

......

And at this moment, on the rivers and lakes, all sects, gangs and associations received a notice printed with the seal of the imperial court.

Shaolin Temple, Daxiong Treasure Hall.

Fang Zheng looked at everyone and read the letter sent by the imperial court, and twisted a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, "Everyone, how is it?"

The head of the Dharma Academy saw it, frowned, and said angrily: "It's ridiculous, since ancient times, the Jianghu sect and the imperial court have always kept the well water from the river, and it's ridiculous to do so." ”

The rest of the Shaolin monks also agreed.

Fang Zheng looked at it and pondered for a while, "I don't know what the meaning of the imperial court's move is, I Shaolin will wait and see first." ”

All the monks said yes.

Huashan.

In the study, Yue Buqun sat on a chair expressionlessly.

Ning Zhong looked at the book in his hand, "Senior brother, the imperial court wants all the sects on our rivers and lakes to practice internal breathing, before the end of the year, all rush to the capital to form a "martial palace", the martial palace consists of three courts, the heart court, the outer power court, and a divine courtyard. All of our Jianghu sects, the head level of the academician, such as the three grades, enjoy the imperial court ......"

"This is a decree of the Ming Dynasty, and those who violate the order will be punished for treason, and there will be no forgiveness for killing. ”

Ning Zhong was frightened by these last three words, and frowned: "Senior brother, this imperial court actually issued a notice, and it is probably not a joke." ”

"Moreover, Wudang and Shaolin are specially requested, they can only preach in the future, and they are not allowed to practice martial arts privately. ”

Yue Buqun listened, his finger joints turned white, his eyes were a little gloomy, he had paid such a big price, his martial arts had just been completed, and he was about to show his ambitions, but he was asked to go to the capital to participate in the formation of a "martial palace", to be an academician, to teach Mr.

"Senior brother, senior brother?"

Yue Buqun came back to his senses, and his expression returned to normal.

Ning Zhong looked at it and said worriedly: "Senior brother, what should we do in Huashan?"

Yue Buqun said coldly: "This move of the imperial court, let us hand over all the martial arts methods, we will definitely be opposed by all the Jianghu sects, just wait and see." ”

Ning Zhong nodded, his expression was still a little worried, but he was frightened by the tough tone on the letter.

Wudangshan, who received a notice from the imperial court, was thinking about how to solve it, and he himself disagreed, but the matter was important, so he planned to contact the senior brother in charge.

Who knows, the Wudang disciple outside the door came in and said, "Elder, the head of the sect has a letter." ”

Qingxu's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Senior brother in charge, the news is really well-informed." He reached out and took the letter.

Qingxu opened it and looked at it, his brows frowned first, and then he continued to look at it for a long time, and after reading it, his frowning brows unfolded, thoughtfully.

At the same time, the Sun and Moon Cult, the Black Wood Cliff.

Dongfang Undefeated is hiding embroidery in the room, "Knock knock"

"Enter. ”

"Master, I have your letter, and I came here in vain. Yang Lianting walked up to his side.

Dongfang Undefeated listened, stopped the embroidery action in his hand, and was a little surprised, "Brother Lian, who are you talking about?"

Yang Lianting handed over the letter, "Your old rival." ”

Dongfang Undefeated took the letter, and after reading it, his eyes burst with light, "Brother Dongfang, I haven't seen you for many years, but I have been fine, since many years ago, after I couldn't enter, I felt that the manpower was exhausted, so I thought of Li Daitao's plan to do everything in the world......"

"Brother Dongfang, although the world is big, there are many people who do nothing, there are few people like you and me, life is in the world, it is difficult to meet opponents, sad and lamentable, life is as lonely as snow, why not promote this martial arts together and take a look at the road after that?"

After reading it, Dongfang Undefeated laughed, and a trace of madness flashed in his eyes, "Okay, good, good Chong Xu, good Li Dai Tao stiff, good life is as lonely as snow, this seat will cooperate with you to see if you can get out of the road after the congenital." After that, there was another laugh.

Yang Lianting looked at it, frowned, and said, "This letter, it can't be sent by the fake Chongxu you met last time, right?"

Dongfang Undefeated listened, his face was revealed, and he smiled, "Brother Lian, tell me to go down and cooperate with the imperial court." ”

Yang Lianting listened and said in surprise: "Have you changed your attention?"

Dongfang Undefeated shook his head and smiled: "These things, for me, are indispensable, it's not a big deal, but now it's different, haha, interesting, so interesting." ”

After laughing, he shook his hand, and the letter in his hand turned into powder.

Yang Lianting listened, although he didn't understand why, but he also breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said that his last task could also be completed, and he could get the antidote. I thought that after my position arrived in the capital, I would be a deputy academician, and I couldn't help but be a little excited.

......

On the rivers and lakes, after receiving the notice, all sects and factions were angry, but they didn't want to be the first bird, and they all waited and watched.

The dark tide of the rivers and lakes is surging, and the sects, large and small, are all staring at the Shaolin Wudang faction and the Sun Moon Divine Sect, wanting to see how these three big men deal with it.

However, to the astonishment of all sects and factions, at the end of August, the Wudang faction gathered all the Taoist priests who practiced martial arts and rushed to the capital.

That's not all, it didn't take long for the various sects to receive news that the Sun Moon Divine Sect, in addition to the undefeated in the East, gathered the left and right Dharma protectors and the ten elders, as well as many good hands who practiced internal breath, and rushed to the capital under the leadership of the chief administrator Yang Lianting.

With the actions of the Wudang Sect and the Sun and Moon God Sect, the rivers and lakes were completely lively.

All the sects secretly wondered what was the reason for the compromise of the two behemoths of Wudang and the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

Of course, there are countless people who secretly scold, originally wanted everyone to twist into a rope and break their wrists with the court, but they didn't think that the two strongest in the team would defect first.
