The thirteenth episode of Yan Shifan Yuedan Appraisal of the World, Li Chengliang Bears the Sword and Rides to Sichuan (5)

Li Chengliang knew the meaning of Xie Huaiyuan's return to the topic, and immediately returned to his seat to pick up the book again and continue to turn the pages, reading: "A (Tiangan first), Luo Changfeng, the master of Luoshu Pavilion. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Luo Changfeng, the master of Luoshu Pavilion, 'Scholar Sword' has reached the realm, twenty-five years ago, he was ranked as the first master of the rivers and lakes, and recently the fifth Tao died, since Angelica this reputation in Luo's predecessors. ”

"Is this the end?" Chu Boyi and the others seemed to be a little incredulous, the first position that was originally given expectations, the name of the number one master in the rivers and lakes was given to Luo Changfeng by Yan Shifan in this way, and the evaluation was so short, it was not like the analysis and evaluation of many people before.

Li Chengliang flipped a few more pages back and said, "It seems that there is really no more about Luo Changfeng. ”

Xie Huaiyuan pondered for a long time, then suddenly stood up, his face was a little excited, and said: "By doing this, this is telling everyone one thing. ”

"Oh, what does Brother Xie have a high opinion?" Chu Boyi was curious when he saw Xie Huaiyuan's posture, and hurriedly asked.

Xie Huaiyuan lifted his clothes, sat down very happily, pressed down a sip of tea, and said with a somewhat strange face: "Luo Changfeng will not die soon!"

"Oh?" When everyone present heard Xie Huaiyuan's conclusion, they were a little stunned at first, and then they all fell into a state of thoughtfulness, after all, most of the people present were high-level sect leaders and were deeply involved in the rivers and lakes. And Li Chengliang, who was still a shallow in the world, was naturally confused, leaned sideways to Bai Mosheng, and asked in a low voice, "Master, why is this?"

Bai Mosheng didn't answer Li Chengliang immediately, but raised his head and said to Yue Xiangjun: "Master Yue, since this is the case, then I have to bother you to go with me, and there is no need to accompany Liang Er into Sichuan." ”

Yue Xiangjun nodded, got up and went out, it seemed that Bai Mosheng had explained something to Yue Xiangjun behind his words, and he went to handle it.

Li Chengliang is still in a state of watching dumb riddles, even if he is smart, he has no way to understand the information that these old rivers and lakes have, and there is no way to integrate isolated information into a clue very effectively. Compared with the tacit understanding that the elders sometimes have when they encounter things, he can only try to get to the bottom of it.

Bai Mosheng watched Yue Xiangjun out of the house, and then turned his head and said to Li Chengliang: "The matter here involves a larger pattern of rivers and lakes, you don't need to be in a hurry, wait for the teacher to tell you." This Luo Changfeng is the lord of Luoshu Pavilion for nearly 40 years, he inherited the throne of Luo Shuge at the age of more than 20 years old, and in the early days, he also gathered some literati swordsmen who advocated the style of the Han and Tang Dynasties, revealing a look of Luo Shuge who has been indisputable with the world for many years, but since he was 30 years old, he has shown his fangs, expanded the power of the rivers and lakes everywhere, colluded with local officials, and got involved in many businesses such as minerals, salt and iron, gambling houses, etc., and annexed and suppressed local sects in various provinces. His actions have been dotted up and down the court in advance, when Emperor Zhengde did not ask about the government, but also liked military adventures, Luo Changfeng also hooked up with Emperor Zhengde, and Emperor Zhengde went down to Jiangnan to quell the rebellion in the entourage of Luo Changfeng. When today's son was first established, Luo Changfeng originally wanted to say something through the eunuchs and Emperor Jiajing, who had made friends in the palace before, but when today's son did not like eunuchs, he was also quite concerned about the government back then, and an arrow was sent, Luo Changfeng immediately contracted his power and hugged Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the cabinet that year, and it is said that the jewels were sent to Yang Tinghe's mansion. Later, Jiajing proposed to set up his biological father (Xingxian Wangye) to enter the Taimiao to claim the emperor, and defeated Yang Tinghe, who was in power, Luo Changfeng was isolated, and concentrated on doing some silk business with the capital he had saved before, and withdrew from those profiteering businesses. But the bad thing is that when Luo Changfeng was holding Yang Ting and blessing, the fifth Tao was born as a disciple of Wang Yangming, the 'Confucian saint in the world', challenged Luo Changfeng successfully, won the first master in the world, and established Yemeng Villa, through the intricate network of relationships with many members of the imperial court to do a business that Luo Changfeng did not dare to dabble in anymore, and when Luo Changfeng gave up the business of salt and iron and turned to silk, the two families were in many iron mines, There was a wider conflict over the competition for salt mines and craftsmen, so Luo Changfeng had a grudge against the current imperial court and the fifth Tao, and the two sides had friction from time to time, and small grudges had accumulated into a sea of blood feuds in the long decades. ”

"Uh...... It is true that the disciples may not have heard much about these stories, but this and ...... What does it matter?" Li Chengliang became more and more confused after listening to Bai Mosheng's words.

Chu Boyi smiled slightly, and took over the conversation: "Your master is telling you the cause and effect. This is linked before and after, I just want to make it clear to you that there are only four forces in the rivers and lakes today that really have the power to dominate the rivers and lakes in terms of the strength of martial arts disciples: Moge, Jade Clan, Luoshuge and Yemeng Villa, among which Yemeng Villa has the relationship between the court officials, the Ming side has the largest power, and the business is also the most profitable; the jade clan sits on the Huiyu Villa and cooperates with the household department, so naturally it is not worried about money; my Moge and the political envoys of many southern provinces supply sea salt and other businesses all the year round, and they can be regarded as eating and drinking; although Luoshuge has withdrawn from salt and iron and other silk porcelain, it seems that there is no loss, but in fact, it is' The overseas sale of silk was really firmly in the hands of the imperial court, how to feed the thousands of disciples under Luo Changfeng's command that fell from the corners and cracks of the weaving mansion? Therefore, for the unification of the rivers and lakes, the most urgent thing to encroach on the various factions is Luo Shuge, and it is necessary to find a channel to replenish his strength without provoking the heart of today. If you know this, you can understand that Luo Baicheng reneged on the verbal contract with us and reached a tacit understanding with Jinyuelou for such a purpose. ”

Li Chengliang finally understood a little, and then Chu Boyi's words said: "So what Luo Shuge wants is to get as much profit as possible from this Yuelou's division of Yemeng Villa, and it is best to be able to beat rabbits with grass, and eliminate a few sects that are not bad at the power of the eye-opening to supplement for their own use." And the key to all this in Luo Shuge is the support of their own martial arts strength, Luo Changfeng is their most prestigious high-end combat power, and it is difficult for Luo Baicheng to become famous too late to suppress the various factions that may exist within it. Therefore, Luo Changfeng has been closed in recent years, and let Luo Baicheng walk the world and accumulate prestige. And now this Yuelou will Luo Changfeng once again ranked the first master in the world, it seems that after defeating Luo Changfeng's fifth Tao and dying, he will return this laurel to Luo Changfeng again in order according to the order, in fact, it is to build momentum for Luo Shuge, so that they can maintain their strong reputation in the rivers and lakes, and they can scrape enough etiquette on Yemeng Villa, and also continue to put a protective umbrella on Luo Baicheng, Luo Baicheng has been able to compete with Fifth Tao for the first place in the world in the first two years, and now there is a man in front of Luo Baicheng who is suppressed, even if you think that Luo Changfeng is in his sixties and lacks energy, you will still be jealous。 And there is only one reason why Jinyuelou can make such an arrangement for Luo Shuge, that is, Luo Changfeng's time is running out, and he wants to use the name of the dying person to help people who still want to live well and carry forward their ambitions. ”

Bai Mosheng nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad." On the other hand, this is arguably the best news in recent times. ”

Li Chengliang hurriedly straightened up and asked, "Please teach the master." ”
