Volume 2, A Leaf Knows Autumn Chapter 22, Flowers Are Not Flowers
The first to arrive in Qishui, Hubei were Jin Shaoyou and Yang Wenyuan, as well as a group of disciples of Shennongtang. This Qishui is the first city attacked after Xu Shouhui's uprising, and it is the key point of Hubei by land and water, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Jin Shaoyou and Yang Wenyuan were able to rush to Hubei to participate in Xu Shouhui's "Flower Folding Order", thanks to Chen Youliang. It turned out that Chen Youliang heard that Xu Shouhui sent a heroic post to summon the heroes of the rivers and lakes, Chen Youliang had ambitions and wanted to dominate the world, but he also knew that he was weak and could not achieve great things, so he had long wanted to tie up Xu Shouhui. happened to encounter this incident and felt that it was a good opportunity, so he discussed with the brothers of Shennongtang to go to Hubei to participate in the hero conference of "Folding Flower Order".
The disciples of Shennongtang are all honest and loyal peasant families, but Chen Youliang is the first to look forward, and his words naturally want to order, who can not agree. That night, they indulged in wine, just for the sake of heroism, and they wanted to go to Hubei tomorrow to participate in the "Flower Folding Order". But he didn't want him to be broken by Ye Linfeng, Jin Shaoyou, and Yang Wenyuan, and fled in a hurry, missing this great opportunity to intersect with Xu Shouhui.
Xu Shouhui was originally a trader selling homespun cloth, with a burly figure, extraordinary appearance, integrity, righteousness and courage, and quite prestige among the masses. When Peng Yingyu traveled the world in his early years and preached the teachings of the White Lotus Sect, Xu Shouhui also consulted him, and he could be regarded as half of his master.
In the eleventh year of Zheng, Han Shantong and Liu Futong of the White Lotus Sect in the north rebelled, causing turmoil in the world. Xu Shouhui had long been dissatisfied with the imperial court, so he formed an alliance with Peng Yingyu, gathered the villagers, burned incense and worshiped Maitreya in the heavenly village on Dabie Mountain, all reciting Buddhist characters, indicating that all beings are equal. Xu Shouhui was elected as the leader because of his high prestige among the crowd, and there were many capable people under him, such as Zhao Pusheng, Zou Pusheng, Ni Wenjun, etc. Later, Ming Yuzhen joined.
The Red Turban Army led by Xu Shouhui fought bravely, defeated the Weishun King Kuan Bu Sprinkle of the Great Yuan Dynasty in one fell swoop, captured Qizhou and Huangzhou, and built the capital in Qishui, and the country was called Tianwan. Tiannai adds "one" to the big character, and "宀" is added to the word "宀", which means that the end of the day is overwhelming. He was the first leader of the rebel army to call the emperor the capital.
Xu Shouhui was born in the White Lotus Sect, although he is of the same origin as Han Shantong and Liu Futong, but his beliefs are different. Han Shantong and others preached "the reincarnation of King Ming", while Peng Yingyu and others preached "Maitreya was born". The two forces often fight openly and secretly for the orthodox identity of the White Lotus Sect. In order to distinguish them, later generations called Han Shantong, Liu Futong, Guo Zixing, Zhu Yuanzhang and other Red Turban Army forces the "East Road Red Turban Army", while Peng Yingyu, Xu Shouhui, Ming Yuzhen and other Red Turban Army forces called the "West Road Red Turban Army".
After Xu Shouhui established political power, he put forward the slogan of "destroying the rich and benefiting the poor," which was supported by the vast number of poor people and had a high prestige among the people.
Jin Shaoyou first arranged for a disciple of Shennongtang to stay, wrote a post, and took Yang Wenyuan and Zhugui to meet Xu Shouhui.
Because the White Lotus Sect believed in by the Red Turban Army of Xu Shouhui's faction has the shadow of Buddhism, Xu Shouhui's place of claim to be the emperor is on the Daxiong Treasure Hall of Qingquan Temple in Qishui County. The three of them came to the outside of Qingquan Temple, the momentum of the construction outside the temple was magnificent, but the temple was full of incense mist, and the incense was prosperous, but it seemed a little nondescript. Outside the door, there were soldiers in armor, armed with spears, and they were majestic.
Jin Shaoyou got off the horse as early as more than ten meters away, and Yang Wenyuan and Zhu Gui followed. When the three of them came to the door, they saw the soldier guarding the door raising his spear and pointing at the three of them, and asked, "Who is coming?"
Jin Shaoyou replied: "Below is Jin Shaoyou, the commander of the Shandong Jianghu Righteous Army, these two are Yang Wenyuan, a Jianghu man, and the farmer's disciple Shennongtang, the lord of the hall, heard that the Tianwan Emperor captured the prince of the imperial court, posted a heroic post, and summoned the world's heroes to come to help, so he came to meet on behalf of the Jianghu Righteous Army!"
The soldier glanced Jin Shaoyou up and down, withdrew his spear, took the salute, and said, "Jin Junshi is here for a while, and I will report this matter to the general!"
Jin Shaoyou clenched his fists and shouted, "Thank you Heavenly Army!"
The soldier took the name card and pushed the door in. Yang Wenyuan asked in a low voice on the side: "Jin Junshi, we and Xu Shouhui are both righteous soldiers, why do Jin Junshi lower their posture like this, isn't it because they will be angry and destroy their own prestige." ”
Jin Shaoyou leaned into his ear and whispered: "This Xu Shouhui has a lot of capable people, and now he has the support of Master Peng, Master Peng is the ancestor of the anti-Yuan, our predecessor, I am like this in his face." Just one Xu Shouhui can't be as good as my eyes!"
Before the words fell, the door opened, and a middle-aged man in civilian clothes walked out, walked in front of Jin Shaoyou in a few steps, and clasped his fists and shouted: "Jin Junshi, Yang Shaoxia, all hall masters, under Zhao Pusheng, on the orders of His Majesty, came to welcome the arrival of the three of them!"
The three of them saw that he was more than nine feet tall, with a long beard and chest, bright eyes, two big knives hanging from his waist, and he walked step by step. This person is Peng Yingyu's disciple, Zhou Ziwang's junior brother, named Zhao Pusheng, strong in martial arts, and brave in ten thousand people. Because of the good double knife, it is called "double knife Zhao" by the people in the rivers and lakes.
When Xu Shouhui rebelled, Zhao Pusheng also raised troops to respond, together with Yu Tingyu's father and son, Liao Yongan and two brothers, with Chaohu Lake as a base, the development of a naval division, there are thousands of naval troops. Zhao Pusheng made outstanding achievements in Xu Shouhui's Red Turban Army and was named a general by Xu Shouhui.
Several people were famous to each other, and after greeting each other for a while, Zhao Pusheng invited the three of them in. Today, Seisonji Temple has been built into an imperial palace annex, and the inside is also very magnificent. The former Daxiong Treasure Hall has been changed to "Liantai Province", which is the central administrative organ set up by Xu Shouhui, which has the meaning of Buddhism. Under Liantai Province, it was also divided into six departments, and the Generalissimo's Office was established. Feng Peng Yingyu was the military advisor, his disciple Zou Pusheng was the grand master, and Ni Wenjun was the generalissimo of the army, and his status was above Zhao Pusheng. Another disciple of Peng Yingyu, Ou Puxiang, was named Tai Lieutenant.
Zhao Pusheng led the three of them to the gate of Liantai Province, Zhao Pusheng pushed the door in, and shouted: "Shandong Righteous Army, Jianghu People's Army, military division Jin Shaoyou, come to visit!"
The three of them walked in with Zhao Pusheng, only to see that the once solemn and solemn Daxiong Treasure Hall had now been changed to the style of the palace hall. In the middle of the position, there is a golden body of Maitreya Buddha with open chest and exposed skin, and the incense is prosperous. There is a dragon chair under the golden body of Maitreya Buddha, on which sits a middle-aged man. I saw that he was dressed in a golden dragon robe, with a long beard and chest-length eyes, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, majestic and majestic, and his eyes had heavy pupils, which was the appearance of a saint. When Jin Shaoyou saw it, he was surprised in his heart, and said in his heart: No wonder even Peng Zu came down the mountain to support him, and he really looked strange and looked like a celestial man.
The three of them bowed down in unison. Xu Shouhui has already been proclaimed emperor, and the three of them naturally want to meet each other as courtesies of monarchs and ministers, but they heard Xu Shouhui say slowly: "Jin Junshi doesn't need to be polite, I am only the emperor of this day, not the emperor of the world." Now the world is in chaos, the heroes are chasing the deer, and it is unknown who will kill the deer, so there is no need to be polite!"
The three of them admired these words in their hearts, and they didn't feel that they had a good impression of Xu Shouhui. There are still a few people standing under the main hall, and Zhao Pusheng introduced them one by one, which is Zou Pusheng, the Taishi of Tianwan, Marshal Ni Wenjun, Taiwei Ou Puxiang, and Ding Pulang, Xu Mingda and other famous generals of the Tianwan Army.
Jin Shaoyou greeted everyone around, but Peng Yingyu was nowhere to be seen. I couldn't help but feel a little lost. After he explained his intentions, Xu Shouhui was very happy and immediately set up a banquet to entertain him. The major generals and leaders of the banquet came one after another and treated the three of them as guests. Jin Shaoyou never saw Peng Yingyu. After he was full of wine and food, Jin Shaoyou proposed that he wanted to meet the prince of the court who was caught, and Xu Shouhui sent Zhao Pusheng to lead the three of them.
On the way to the prison, Jin Shaoyou saw that there was no one around, so he asked Zhao Pusheng: "General Zhao, why haven't you seen Peng Zu?
Zhao Pusheng replied: "Peng Zu is here right now, but he is old, he was suffering from a stubborn illness a few days ago, and he is currently recuperating in the Lotus Palace, so the Jin Junshi has not seen him." ”
"It turned out that Peng Zu was suffering from a stubborn illness!" Jin Shaoyou sighed and asked, "Peng Zu, is it convenient?" ”
"Convenient, convenient!" Zhao Pusheng nodded and said, "It just so happens that the army is busy with affairs, and I haven't been to see Master for many days, so come with me." ”
Zhao Pusheng took the three of them around a detour, walked on a stone-paved path, and walked about a hundred steps to the outside of a dilapidated hall. Zhao Pusheng walked to the door, knocked lightly, and asked, "Master, have you ever slept?"
He knocked on the door several times, but he did not see an answer from inside the house. Zhao Pusheng said: "I'm afraid the master is asleep." Let's go to the prison first. Before the words fell, a voice was heard in the room, such as Huang Zhong Dalu, resounding in the ears of the four people: "But is Pusheng here?"
All three of them were shocked in unison. Yang Wenyuan was even more shocked, this Peng
Yingyu's voice is heroic and magnificent, like the sound of a dragon roaring and a tiger's roar, if there is no profound and strong internal force, it is naturally impossible to do this. It seems that this Peng Zu is not only the leader of the famous rebel army, but also a generation of martial arts masters.
Zhao Pusheng shouted: "Master, you didn't sleep, I'm Pusheng, the Jin Shaoyou Jin Army Division of the Shandong Jianghu People's Righteous Army, Yang Wenyuan, Yang Shaoxia, and all the nobles and hall masters have come to see you!"
Peng Yingyu's voice in the house came again, but it showed a hint of joy: "Invite them in!" As he spoke, the door opened automatically, and Zhao Pusheng greeted the three of them in, but saw that the house was full of fragrant mist, like a fairyland on earth. The room is not large, and a portrait of Maitreya Buddha hangs on the wall. The incense burner in front of him was full of incense ashes, a tall monk sat on the ground, holding a rosary bead in his hand, and heard the footsteps of the four people, the big monk got up, folded his hands to greet each other, and smiled: "I don't know if the three heroes came, there is a long way to welcome, please forgive me!"
Although Peng Yingyu is a monk, she has been rebelling against the Yuan over the years, has experienced countless wars, and her words also have a hint of Jianghu atmosphere, which makes the three of them feel close, not as depressed as when they talk to Xu Shouhui and others.
Peng Yingyu was born with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, her eyes were as bright as stars, and her steps were steady, not like a sick person at all.
When Peng Yingyu rebelled against the Yuan, Qin Shuyuan was still roaming the rivers and lakes, Han Shantong, Liu Futong, and Guo Zixing were still doing farm work in the fields, Zhang Shicheng and Fang Guozhen were still selling illicit salt in the coastal area, Xu Shouhui was still selling cloth, Jin Shaoyou was still reading at night, and wanted to gain fame, Zhao Yanfa, Ye Linfeng, Xiao Qingshan, and Yang Wenyuan were just children.
In the face of such an old-timer, the three of them are full of respect. Jin Shaoyou once heard Qin Shuyuan say that the person he admired most in his life was Peng Yingyu. Jin Shaoyou often listened to Peng Yingyu's heroic deeds, and he was very respectful of him. The two talked so happily that they forgot the hour.
After coming out of Peng Yingyu's house, it was already dusk, and the sun was setting, dyeing the entire Qingquan Temple red. Zhao Pusheng led the three of them to the prison to meet the prince of the court who was arrested by them.
As soon as they entered the prison, a cold aura struck, invading the bone marrow, and the three of them were thinly dressed, and they couldn't help but shiver. Zhao Pusheng smiled slightly: "The Jinjun Division should have never entered the heavenly prison, so they can't stand the cold atmosphere in this prison. ”
Jin Shaoyou shook his head and said, "General Zhao's words are wrong, Jin has also been imprisoned, and he knows the pain of this prison. When I came today, I remembered the situation of the past, and this is the only way to behave. ”
The prison disaster that Jin Shao lobbied, Yang Wenyuan naturally also knew, that was when the Jianghu people handed over the silver taels to Luxi Bridge before, and they were captured by Yan Dakai, the guard of Jinan Mansion. Nearly a year has passed since this incident, but Yang Wenyuan remembers it vividly, as if it was just yesterday.
The three of them followed Zhao Pusheng all the way in, and the deeper they went, the heavier the cold aura became. The four of them walked to the end of the prison, and Zhao Pusheng pointed to the depths of the prison: "Look, that's the prince of the imperial court!"
The three of them looked and saw a young man in white sitting on the ground in the dark and cold prison, leaning against the damp wall, his long hair was messy, his white clothes were full of blood, and his face was also scarred. His head hung down, his eyes were blank, and he didn't see a bite of the food sitting by the prison.
Hearing the four of them speak, he raised his head suddenly, forgot to glance at it, his eyes burst with essence, and suddenly lost his color, and lowered his head.
Zhao Pusheng stepped forward and shouted, "Your Excellency, don't you want to eat? Do you want to starve yourself to death and become a hero of the imperial court?"
The prince snorted coldly and shouted, "Since I fell into your hands, I never thought of getting out alive, and since you want to kill me, why do you want to bring me food!"
When everyone heard this, they never thought that this young prince of the court would be an iron-clad man. They all thought that this Mongolian nobleman was a villain who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and there were such characters, if he hadn't been born to the wrong person, he would probably be a hero.
The reason why Xu Shouhui kept him from killing was to release the news and attract soldiers and horses from the imperial court to come in droves, so as to gain a chance for Liu Futong's Northern Expedition. Although he did not agree with Liu Futong's White Lotus Sect, he also knew the story of the snipe and the clam competing for the profit of the fisherman, so that Liu Futong and the Yuan army could consume each other, so that they could take advantage of the weakness and dominate the world; the second aspect was because Xu Shouhui did not believe that the prince left the capital and came to Jiangnan to be a place of right and wrong, just to pick flowers for the princess. He thought that the prince was an undercover agent deliberately sent by the imperial court, and there was a conspiracy to come here, so he tortured him, leaving countless blood marks. But no matter how the Tianwan army tortured, the prince only said that he was here to pick flowers for the princess.
Xu Shouhui asked Jin Shaoyou to come to meet the prince, and he also wanted to use his name as a "wise man with a thousand thoughts" to see if he could get some words out of his mouth. Jin Shaoyou naturally knew Xu Shouhui's thoughts, and the two of them tacitly agreed.
Jin Shaoyou made a look, Zhao Pusheng understood, so he retreated from the prison guards and took Yang Wenyuan and Zhu Gui out. Jin Shaoyou saw that there was no third person in the prison, so he sat on the ground with a big face. The prince looked up at him and said, "Are you also sent by them to extract a confession?" I have already said that I am not an undercover agent, I just came to Jiangnan to pick flowers for the princess!"
Jin Shaoyou shook his head and said, "Lord Wang, don't get excited, I'm not Xu Shouhui's person, I'm Jin Shaoyou, the righteous army commander from Shandong Jianghu, and I haven't asked Wang Ye for his name?"
The prince saw that he was very polite, he was a prince and nobleman, so naturally he couldn't refute his face, and said: "My name is Batu, I am a Mongolian nobleman, and I was canonized by Your Majesty as 'Prince Mingzhe', and my Chinese name is Gu Nianying. ”
Jin Shaoyou said in his heart, this Mongolian is really a barbarian tribe, I don't know my Han culture, a dignified seven-foot man, he actually has such a delicate Han name, it is really funny. But he had something to do today, and he didn't care about laughing at him, nodded and asked: "I heard that the prince was given marriage by the emperor, but he was a court horse and had a noble status, but why did he come out without a single soldier with him?"
Batu smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Jin, although I am the prince of His Majesty's imperial gift and the horse of the court, I will not lead troops to fight, how can I have soldiers in my hands." ”
Jin Shaoyou nodded and asked, "Lord Wang, I was captured by Xu Shouhui this time, do you know that your life is not guaranteed?"
Five Generations of Rivers, Mountains and Moons
Batu smiled slightly and said: "People are inherently dead, and if they die sooner or later, they will all be a piece of loess, so why bother about it and mess up their minds." ”
Jin Shaoyou never thought that this Badu would have such a state of mind, and admired him in his heart. asked: "The prince came to Jiangnan, is it really to pick flowers for the princess?"
Badu nodded and said, "I have been with Princess Ying since I was a child, childhood sweethearts, deep and righteous, and I have long secretly made friends. His Majesty was also pleased to see that the two of us were close, so he opened Chrysostom and gave me a marriage contract. The princess had long heard that the exotic flowers and plants in the south of the Yangtze River were extremely beautiful, and she longed for them, but the world was in turmoil, wars were frequent, and the princess was a daughter and couldn't come out. The princess knew that the rebel army was getting stronger and stronger, and if one day she broke through and attacked the capital, I am afraid she would never see her again. ”
Jin Shaoyou nodded secretly in his heart. Tingba called her Princess Ying, so it must be Fang's name Ying. I thought of the Chinese name of Batu again, and all of a sudden I understood it, and praised that this Prince Mingzhe is also a lover, Gu Nianying, taking into account the Miss Ying Princess, suddenly couldn't laugh.
Batu continued: "I saw that Princess Ying was getting thinner and thinner, and I couldn't bear it, so I took out Dadu alone, turned into a Han person, and came to the land of Jiangnan, just wanting to pick a flower and go back to Princess Ying to see. I'm afraid that after a long time, she really won't be able to see it!"
Jin Shaoyou smiled slightly and said, "She is the princess of the dynasty and the pearl of the emperor's palm." The emperor sits on the world, can't he even see a flower? ”
Badu shook his head and said, "Mr. Jin, since you are a rebel of the Jianghu people, then let me ask you, why did you follow Qin Shuyuan's heroes to rebel?"
Jin Shaoyou never thought that he would have such a question, so he replied: "Naturally, because the imperial court is corrupt and incompetent, the forced labor is heavy, and the people live in dire straits, and they are miserable!"
"That's it!" Batu nodded, and suddenly sighed: "Even the people of the world know that the court is corrupt and incompetent, how can we, the so-called princes and nobles, not know." ”
Jin Shaoyou's heart was shocked, and he asked, "What does the prince mean by this, do you also know that the imperial court is going to die?"
Badu said: "My Dayuan is a foreigner, and he has occupied the country of the Han people for decades, and the Han people are not convinced and want to build it."
There are many people who are against it. Although the territory of the Great Yuan is vast, if it wants to be passed on for generations, it must treat the people better than the Han emperor. However, since Emperor Taiding, the Mongolian nobles have been flying high, oppressing the Han people, making the people miserable and hungry. The imperial court was already in decay, and it was only a matter of time before it perished. ”
Jin Shaoyou was even more shocked in his heart. If this sentence was spoken by a Han man, Jin Shaoyou only felt that he was a bloody man. But now the person in front of him is a Mongolian prince and nobleman, the "Prince Mingzhe" canonized by the emperor, and he is also a concubine of the dynasty. From the point of view of the imperial court, this is a great rebellion, and from the perspective of Jin Shaoyou, it is a righteous annihilation!
Badu smiled and said, "Whether it is a Han or a Mongolian, as long as you treat the people well, whoever sits on the country can sit on the country." If the emperor of the dynasty was a Han and did such a thing, I am afraid that there would be countless rebels in the world. From ancient times to the present, there have been many people who have revolted, is it because it is a foreigner who owns the country? But it is all because the court is not good to the people. ”
Jin Shaoyou saw that he understood the righteousness, and thought that he might die at the hands of Xu Shouhui in a few days, so he actually sympathized with him in his heart, and shouted: "Since the prince is so aware of the righteousness, why don't you want your title to leave the court and protect your life?"
Batu said: "Although I am dissatisfied with the court and His Majesty, I am also a Mongolian. Besides, Princess Ying and I have a marriage contract, how can I do such a rebellious thing. ”
He raised his head, looked at the swarthy dome above, and sighed: "I only hate why the two of us were born in the emperor's house, if I was born in an ordinary family, she and I can live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, accompanied by bamboo springs, and not be disturbed by trivial matters, how good it would be! It's a pity that I was caught by Xu Shouhui, I'm afraid my life is at risk, and I'm afraid I won't be able to pick flowers for Princess Ying in this life!"
He suddenly remembered something, got up and ran to the door of the prison, grabbed the iron bar, and shouted: "Mr. Jin, I know that you are a good person, I want to ask you for something, I wonder if Mr. Jin can promise me?"
Jin Shaoyou got up, let out a long sigh, and said, "Does the prince want to send a flower to the palace to Princess Ying?"
Jin Shaoyou is worthy of being a "wise man with a thousand thoughts", and he guessed Batu's mind at once. Badu was so excited that he fell to his knees with a thud and said, "Mr. Jin, please agree to my request, although the imperial court is at fault, but Princess Ying is innocent, can't she be satisfied if she wants to see a flower in the south of the Yangtze River!"
Jin Shaoyou was at war with heaven and man in his heart, and after a long time, he sighed and replied, "Lord Wang, I promise you!"
When Batu heard this, he was overjoyed, and he actually kowtowed to him a few times. A prince canonized by the imperial court, a Mongolian prince and nobleman, actually kowtowed to him, the military advisor of the rebel army. For thousands of years, this is the first time that a big girl has been on a sedan chair!
Jin Shaoyou looked at him, his face was cloudy, his heart was mixed, he didn't speak, he turned around and walked out of the prison.
At this time, night fell, and the sky and the earth were dark. Outside the prison, Yang Wenyuan, Zhu Gui and Zhao Pusheng were waiting outside the door. Seeing Jin Shao swim out, Zhao Pusheng took a step forward and asked, "Jin Junshi, have you ever asked what happened?"
Jin Shaoyou shook his head and said, "He came to Jiangnan to pick flowers for the princess, and there is no other conspiracy." ”
Zhao Pusheng saw that he was uneasy, and thought that he asked something deliberately not to say, so he nodded, but scolded secretly in his heart: I am really a fool, I actually cleared out all the prison guards, and forgot to leave a word and ear, so as to listen to what they talked about!
Jin Shaoyou suddenly asked, "General Zhao, has the emperor ever ordered that this prince will be beheaded on a certain day?"
Zhao Pusheng replied: "Three days later, at the Flower Folding Order Conference, in front of all the heroes and heroes in the world, His Majesty will personally ask and behead!"
"Is there three days left?" Jin Shaoyou frowned and muttered to himself. Zhao Pusheng saw that his expression was wrong, so he asked, "Master Jinjun, what's wrong with you?"
Jin Shaoyou suddenly came back to his senses, laughed, and said, "I think that when the Yuan army gets the news, how many troops will be sent to the rescue?
Zhao Pusheng laughed and said: "Your Majesty has already issued a heroic post, and with the reputation of Your Majesty and Peng Zu, countless heroes will definitely be summoned." At that time, even if the Yuan army moves in the nest, he will be disciplined and will not come back!"
"That's good!" Jin Shaoyou nodded, and suddenly remembered Peng Yingyu in his mind, and he was happy in his heart, so he said goodbye to Zhao Pusheng and left Qingquan Temple with Yang Wenyuan and Zhu Gui.
......
Beside the forest road, a team of men and horses are camping here. But it was Xiao Yanyu and Xiao Qingshan and the Jianghu rebels under them.
More than a dozen fireheads were on fire and cooking, but Dongfang Bai was bouncing on the side, very happy. Ye Linfeng, Xiao Qingshan, and Xiao Yanyu were sitting on the side talking about something, and their faces were flushed in the reflection of the bonfire in front of them.
Xiao Qingshan said: "Although Xu Shouhui has no opinions, he has won the hearts of the people in the past few years, otherwise he would not have been supported by Peng Zu, and he will also bring all his disciples under his command." ”
Ye Linfeng nodded and said, "There is a head of the Yujiang faction in my gang, named Yu Sihai, who is also a disciple of Peng Zu, and he also rebelled with Peng Zu and Zhou Ziwang in Yuanzhou back then. He once said that Peng Zu not only has profound Buddhism, but also strong martial arts, and he has single-handedly fought hundreds of Yuan troops on the battlefield back then, and he still does not fall behind. ”
Xiao Qingshan nodded and said: "Peng Zu is not only strong in martial arts, but also a senior of the Righteous Army, the ancestor of the Red Turban Army of the Southern White Lotus Sect, with his support, I believe that Xu Shouhui is the most capable emperor to sit on this new country!"
Ye Linfeng sighed and asked, "Doesn't Brother Xiao have the idea of wanting to be an emperor?"
Xiao Qingshan shook his head and smiled, "Not to mention whether I have a chance to do it, even if I really have a chance, I don't want to do it." Being an emperor is too tired and does not have a little freedom. How can you be so carefree and happy as you are now!"
Ye Linfeng remembered the conversation with Chen Youliang that night, and asked again: "Brother Xiao is chic by nature, and it is understandable that he does not want to be the emperor, but General Qin probably has the heart to be the emperor, right?"
Xiao Yanyu shook her head and said, "Gang Master Ye's words are wrong. General Qin has been rebelling in Shandong for five or six years, and if he had the heart to be the emperor, he would have been proclaimed emperor a long time ago. But now he doesn't even call him a king, he only calls him a general, and he is a head shorter than Guo Zixing. ”
Ye Linfeng asked: "Then General Qin's rebellion and rebellion are not for the sake of being the emperor, but for what?"
Xiao Yanyu said with a smile: "Not everyone wants to be an emperor, General Qin told us before that he only overthrew the imperial court to save the people and the fire." He doesn't care who is the emperor, but he needs to love the people like a son. At that time, he will find a secluded place, live in seclusion, and live in retirement. I also thought that after the fall of the imperial court, it would be a great thing to find a good landscape and live in seclusion. ”
Ye Linfeng was shocked at the moment. In his conversation with Chen Youliang that night, Chen Youliang once said that those who have rebelled since ancient times are all in order to hold the sword of power and dominate the world. He also felt that it made sense, so he thought that the rebels were all rebelling for this matter today. But after listening to Xiao Qingshan and Xiao Yanyu's words today, I realized that from top to bottom, no one in the Jianghu Righteous Army had such ambitions. He thought to himself, who had said the wrong thing?
With a whoosh, Dongfang Bai's figure swept in front of the three of them, bringing a gust of wind, and the flames were crooked to the left. Dongfang Bai took a clear and turquoise cucumber in his mouth, chewed it twice, and asked, "Little doll, who were you talking about just now?
The three of them all smiled slightly, and said in their hearts that this old man's ears were very bright. Xiao Yanyu rolled her eyes and said, "Old man, it's the person we want to meet." I've heard that this person is the second best in the world, very powerful, I'm afraid you won't be able to beat him!"
When Dongfang Bai heard this, he jumped up in a hurry, and a cucumber fell to the ground and fell into several petals.
"He is the second in the world, but I am the first in the world! How can the first in the world be afraid of the second in the world! When the time comes, I have to ask him for advice to see who is more powerful!"
Everyone was just laughing, seeing that Dongfang Bai was emotional, they all laughed, but Xiao Qingshan thought in his heart: This old-timer and Peng Zu are both a monk, both have profound martial arts, and it is really interesting to fight!
......
