Chapter 124: Something Wrong
Chen Ji came to Yangzhou, what should be done and what should not be done, all done. Fortunately www.biquge.info he forced Duoduo back and saved more than 800,000 people in Yangzhou.
The merit is immeasurable.
Chen Ji is completely famous in Yangzhou. In the past, Chen Ji was only at the top of the major forces, as well as in the martial arts world, and had a great reputation. As for the people, few people know about Chen Ji.
Now, Chen Ji's fame in Yangzhou has completely spread among the people. The people of Yangzhou may not know who the emperor is, but they can't know Chen Ji, the leader of the White Lotus Sect.
Fame has brought great benefits to Chen Ji and the White Lotus Sect, at least, the people of Yangzhou will no longer think that the White Lotus Sect is a thief.
Scofa's Mansion.
Chen Ji, Donglai Monk, and Liu Xing are saying goodbye to Shi Kefa.
"Inspector, we're back in Nanjing. Leave. Chen Ji hugged his fists to Shi Kefa and said with a smile.
Shi Kefa said with a smile: "The sect leader can take the first step, and when the official is done with the affairs of Yangzhou, he will go to Nanjing to personally report the war in Yangzhou to the emperor." When the time comes, we will meet again. ”
........................
Duoduo retreated, and Yangzhou was unharmed.
When the news reached Nanjing, several cabinet ministers looked at each other. Yangzhou actually held back hundreds of thousands of Manchu troops.
How can it be?
After reading Shi Kefa's good news, Qian Qianyi, Ma Shiying and others did not look good.
"Chen Ji. I didn't expect it to be this Chen Ji again. Ma Shiying said with a gloomy face, "Brother Mu Zhai, how much of what you said in Shi Kefa's recital is true? Protecting Yangzhou is really all the credit of Chen Ji and the White Lotus Sect?"
Shi Kefa's recital clearly explained the details of Chen Ji's confrontation against the Qing soldiers. In the end, Duoduo and Ao Bai agreed to withdraw from the army, also because of Chen Ji's deterrence.
It can be said that Chen Ji is the first credit to protect the people of Yangzhou.
But these cabinet ministers of the Nanjing court did not see it that way. Chen Ji is just a person from the rivers and lakes, and even an anti-thief leader, and the credit is all Chen Ji's, doesn't it mean that they, the ministers of civil and military affairs, are incompetent.
If this matter is known to the whole world, what is the face of the imperial court? What is the face of the emperor? Where is the face of these cabinet ministers?
Qian Qianyi snorted coldly: "Elder Ma Ge, Shi Kefa's recital is simply nonsense. Chen Ji was only a martial arts master, how could he defeat Duoduo's hundreds of thousands of troops? You must know that in the Manchu military camp, there were two grandmasters, Ao Bai and Luo Ping. Do you really think that Chen Ji is an immortal?"
"The defeat of Duoduo and the forced retreat of hundreds of thousands of Manchu troops to the north of the Yangtze River was the result of the strategy of the emperor and our cabinet ministers, and Shi Kefa was merely carrying out our plans and orders in Yangzhou City. ”
Qian Qianyi said it magnificently and easily, not only dividing up Chen Ji's credit, but even depriving Shi Kefa, the supervisor, of his credit.
Yangzhou's victory seems to be really their and the emperor's ability.
Ma Shiying nodded and said, "Brother Mu Zhai, you have a point. In that case, let's do what Brother Mu Zhai wants. ”
The next morning.
Morning meeting.
Emperor Hongguang sat on the throne and looked at the military generals below.
Ma Shiying, the first assistant of the cabinet, reported the "great victory in Yangzhou", and finally said: "Your Majesty, it is really blessed by Taizu, and now it not only relieves the danger of Yangzhou, but also allows the Manchu army to retreat to the north bank of the Yangtze River. Within five years, the Manchus would not attack Jiangnan. ”
Emperor Hongguang was overjoyed that the Manchu Qing Dynasty would not go south for five years. He can sit as an emperor for another five years.
When Duoduo went south, he scared Emperor Hongguang half to death. Well, now, the Manchu army has finally retreated.
"Good, good, good. Zhu Yousong said happily, "The repulsion of Duoduo is all the credit of all Aiqing, and I am very relieved." ”
Next, it is to reward the cabinet ministers.
Shi Kefa, the official who contributed the most and contributed the most, became a marginal figure. And Chen Ji, the person who saved Yangzhou, was not mentioned at all.
........................
Chen Ji practiced swords in the courtyard.
Now he no longer uses the internal strength of the Five Fowl Opera to urge the Tianyan Sword Technique, but tries to use the Tianyan Sword Technique to drive the internal strength. It is hoped that the internal strength, driven by the Tianyan Sword Technique, can form a Zhoutian cycle according to the running route of the Pure Yang Nine Scrolls.
It's really hard to do that.
If Chen Ji was able to enter the Pure Yang Nine Scrolls, his inner family cultivation and swordsmanship would be enhanced again.
Pure yang is a realm pursued by Taoists.
has reached the realm of pure yang, not to mention becoming a land immortal, not to mention immortality, but it can definitely prevent all evils and prolong life.
Throughout the morning, Chen Ji's sword practice was incoherent, and his swordsmanship moves were intermittent, like a beginner in swordsmanship. But the Donglai monk and Liu Xing didn't see it that way. They found that every sword move of Chen Ji was very subtle, and once the speed was raised, they couldn't avoid it at all.
When encountering a swordsman like Chen Ji, with their martial arts, they will definitely die.
"Sect Master, your secret method of the Five Fowl Opera is already a very clever technique in the martial arts world, why bother to learn any more Pure Yang Nine Scrolls?" said the Donglai monk with a smile.
Specializing in the secret method of the Five Fowl Opera, you also have the opportunity to reach the realm of the Innate Great Master. The Donglai monk didn't understand why Chen Ji wanted to abandon this exercise and switch to the Nine Volumes of Pure Yang.
Liu Xing said: "Master Donglai, the sect leader naturally has his reasons for doing this. I think that perhaps the Nine Volumes of Pure Yang are more profound and subtle than the Five Fowl Opera. ”
Chen Ji put away his sword, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said: "Compared with the Pure Yang Nine Scrolls and the Five Fowl Opera, I can't say which martial arts is more profound, I can only say which kind of martial arts is more suitable for me." I am a swordsman, and I practice the Tianyan swordsmanship, so I naturally want to practice the Nine Volumes of Pure Yang. At that time, Lu Dongbin's swordsmanship was invincible in the world, and he was called a sword immortal, and I wanted to reach the same height as him. ”
Using the internal strength of the five fowl drama to urge the Tianyan swordsmanship, although the swordsmanship is extremely powerful, it is still a little incompatible. After all, the swordsmanship and the secret method of the inner family are not compatible.
"Sect Master, my subordinates have something to report. Liang Bai walked over with an angry face.
Chen Ji asked, "What makes you so angry Liang Bai?"
Liang Bai told him about today's court meeting.
In the end, Liang Bai said angrily: "Sect Master, Qian Qianyi, Ma Shiying and others are too deceitful. Guarding Yangzhou, repelling Duoduo, and signing an agreement with the Manchus, the Sect Master and the Governor of Shi Kefa. What does it have to do with Qian Qianyi and Ma Shiying? They are all corpse vegetarian guys, and now they have snatched all the credit of the sect leader. ”
The Donglai monk stared at him and said in a cold voice: "Sect Master, that old thing Qian Qianyi actually dared to rob the sect leader of the credit, he is really looking for death." Buddha, I'm going to ask for Qian Qianyi's life now. ”
Chen Ji shook his head and said with a smile: "It was my original intention to go to Yangzhou to save people. It was a surprise to let Duoduo retire. This seat is not a person from the imperial court, so what is the use of asking for those credits? It's just that Shi Kefa is suffering. ”
The Donglai monk thought for a while and said, "What the sect leader said is true. If we want to save people, we can save people, where is the need to get the reward of the imperial court. ”
Chen Ji said to Liang Bai: "Lord Liang Helm, if you don't have anything to do, just step back first." ”
"Yes, Master. Liang Bai clenched his fists and stepped back.
After this confrontation with the Manchu army, Chen Ji had a new understanding of martial arts.
For the cultivation of martial arts, more concentrated.
Power, wealth, is a kind of power, but it is an external force that can be taken away. Martial arts are their own, and their martial arts and swordsmanship are powerful, and no one can take them away.
Martial arts are powerful to a certain height, and they can deter a regime.
The compromise of the Manchu retreat is a good proof of this.
"After this busy time, I must retreat well and practice the Pure Yang Nine Scrolls. Chen Ji said firmly in his heart.
In the afternoon, Chen Ji received a flying pigeon message from Zheng Zhilong, and the Zheng family's merchant ship was hijacked by the Dutch, including tens of thousands of people from the White Lotus Sect who had moved to Taiwan.
"Dutch East India Company, these foreign devils are not small. I didn't come to provoke you, you should have laughed secretly, I didn't expect you to dare to attack the White Lotus Sect. It's really looking for death. Chen Ji's eyes showed a strong murderous intent.
Just saved Yangzhou, but I didn't expect that the immigrants of the White Lotus Sect had problems again. Chen Ji was eager to exterminate those Western colonists.
Dorduo and Ao Bai returned to Beijing and were summoned by Dolgon.
Beijing City, Qianqing Palace.
"Fourteenth brother...... "Dordo glanced at Dolgon, a little weak.
Dolgon snorted coldly: "Prince Yu, this is the Qianqing Palace, please call this king the regent." ”
Ao Bai knelt down and said: "Slave Ao Bai, knock to see the regent." ”
Dolgon glanced at Aobai and said, "Aobai, you get up first." ”
"Duoduo, when you set out on the expedition, what did this king tell you? Let you recover Nanjing and concentrate on dealing with Chen Ji. But what did you do? You actually said that you were going to slaughter Yangzhou for ten days, causing Chen Ji's crazy revenge. Tens of thousands of Qing warriors died, and you are responsible. Dodor looked angry.
In the past, when the Qing Dynasty attacked the city, Chen Ji did not appear once, why did he attack Yangzhou, Chen Ji went crazy? It must be because Duoduo ordered the slaughter of the city.
As long as he didn't slaughter the city, conquered Yangzhou and Nanjing, gave Chen Jilai a big encirclement by surprise, and let Kong Youde and Shang Kexi's Han Eight Banners take the lead, consuming Chen Ji's physical strength and internal strength, and the warriors of the Qing Dynasty finally went up again. Killing Chen Ji is a sure thing, but unfortunately, it was messed up by Duoduo's arrogance.
If it weren't for the fact that Dorgon was Dorgon's own brother, Dorgon would have wanted to kill him.
Duoduo said unwillingly: "Regent, Chen Ji is too powerful, it is really not so easy to kill him. ”
Thinking of Chen Ji, Duoduo felt a little frightened in his heart.
Duoduo waved his hand: "Duoduo, this king now deprives you of your princely title and official position, go home and reflect on it." ”
Deprived of his title and official position, Duoduo was certainly not reconciled. But seeing Dorgon's gloomy face, he did not dare to speak again.
"Yes, Lord Regent. Duoduo withdrew from the Qianqing Palace.
Dolgon asked Aobai, "Aobai, you have also seen Chen Ji's harm to my Great Qing. He alone can bring Daqing to its knees. He must be killed, no matter what the cost. ”
Ao Bai hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind and said, "Regent, the only one in the entire north who can deal with Chen Ji is the Quanzhen Sect. The slave can go to Zhongnan Mountain with Hong Chengchou. ”
Dorgon nodded, "Okay." You inform Hong Chengchou to rush to Zhongnan Mountain immediately, and be sure to ask the head of the Quanzhen Sect to help. ”
The dojo of the Quanzhen Sect was in Zhongnan Mountain, Shaanxi, which was already under the jurisdiction of the Qing Dynasty at this time. Dalton believed that the Quanzhen Sect would give the Qing court some face.
