Since the brothers are commensurate, they are people in the Ming Sect. The people of the Five Elements Banner returned the salute with their own religious etiquette, but the suspicious look in their eyes could not be concealed.

This Liu Bowen looks really good, but his steps are vain, and he doesn't look like a person with martial arts at all.

Zhuang Zheng frowned and said: "Zhou Dian, if you have a good intention, our Five Elements Banner will inherit your affection." But if you want to see the joke, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. At present, we have already investigated this matter, and we have already planned to teach Zhao Shaoxia and me a clean slate. ”

Although they only got along for a while, Zhao Yu saw that this Zhuang Zheng was a strict person who didn't like to talk nonsense, and when he said this, he withdrew his gaze to observe Liu Bowen, and hurriedly asked: "What clues have you found?

Tang Yang said: "Which one is Liu Chengtao? Yes, the mastermind behind the robbery is indeed the two evils of Hejian. We used hundreds of brothers to track down this clue for several months, and deduced that they wanted to trap and kill Brother Zhao. That's why I hurried here and asked the brothers to guard the passage in and out of Pingyao City, but I didn't expect that Brother Zhao had already come in disguise, but we were too worried. ”

Chang Yuchun was afraid that Zhao Yu would not understand, so he explained: "After Deputy Banner Wu returned to Yingzhou with that group of sectarians, Tang Qi's envoy felt that there was something strange about this matter. I have no grudge against the two evils in Hejian, and the brothers of the Nabu family dare to seriously injure Deputy Wu's envoy together with Ding Minjun and others of the Emei faction, they must have some plans. After Brother Zhao became famous, we tracked down the whereabouts of Brother Zhao and the robbery at the same time......"

Zhao Yu nodded while listening, he started to deduce from Liu Chengtao's clue, but the Five Elements Banner did not have this ready-made clue, but they could all find out the truth about a robbery a few months ago, which shows that the means are really extraordinary.

He asked again: "Then why did the Shuangsha of Hejian deliberately bite the beggar gang and the Mingjiao and cause chaos in Hebei's martial arts? And why did they put the killing situation in Pingyao? Have you found out all these things?"

Hearing Zhao Yu's questions, the faces of the people in the Five Elements Banner became a little embarrassed, and Chang Yuchun was puzzled: "What's the matter with these things? Planting blame is a common method used by thieves, and Brother Zhao and I have a good meeting, but the beggar gang is unlucky, what does it matter? Besides, if they want to kill people, they have to care about picking a random place?"

When Zhao Yu heard Chang Yuchun say this, he knew that they hadn't thought of this, and the truth was far from being revealed. He then said: "I came this time to remind you that there should be no inside information about this matter, and don't act rashly for the time being. ”

The faces of everyone in the Five Elements Banner changed, and Tang Yang sighed: "But what we thought was simple, we originally planned to catch the two evils in the river together after meeting with Brother Zhao, and announce the crime to the rivers and lakes, and then we can end this matter." Listening to Brother Zhao say this, I realized that this plan was really a bit reckless. ”

After Zhao Yu heard this, he also smiled bitterly, he didn't think that he would capture Liu Chengtao and reveal the truth.

At this time, Zhou Dian, who had been listening attentively, laughed out loud and said proudly: "That's why I said, your Five Elements Banner is in a really bad situation at the moment, and it's really bad! Liu boy, don't tell our discovery to the ignorant people of the Five Elements Banner!"

Liu Bowen was ignored for a long time, and he was not angry at all, first smiled and nodded, and then said to Tang Yang: "The place where the Five Elements Banner is looking for is quiet and interesting, don't you think it's strange? Why is there a mulberry tree here, but there are not many people?"

This question made the faces of the people in the Five Elements Banner a little ugly, and Chang Yuchun said in a rough voice: "I don't know! It's not that Pingyao County ordered the dog official to levy and extort money and collect any mulberry tax, which made it difficult for the villagers to live with their families and property, and they fled to other places one after another!"

Liu Bowen nodded and said: "This is just one of them, Pingyao not only collects taxes for mulberry treatment at the moment, but also adds more than a dozen miscellaneous taxes of different fames, and indiscriminately increases the conscription." The young and strong people were all conscripted to serve, and if they missed the agricultural time, they would inevitably lose their families. ”

Chang Yuchun said hatefully: "If there is nothing to do here, I really want to enter Pingyao City and chop off the head of that bastard county commander!" Everyone all showed a worried expression.

Tang Yang frowned and said, "This kind of chaos is nothing in the world, what does it have to do with what we are talking about at the moment?"

Zhao Yu couldn't help but look at the Taoist priest who was talking, he had a vague idea in his heart, and frowned and thought.

Liu Bowen's eyes turned and saw Zhao Yu's thoughtful appearance, a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes, and he continued: "Although the Tartars are fierce and fierce, their numbers are far inferior to those of my Hanmin. Its potential energy swept the world, and there were few Han people who were willing to be driven by the loss of integrity and brutalize their compatriots, so that the land of our Shenzhou was shattered and lacking! Among them, the best of them were canonized by the Tartar court, commanding the army and ruling the people, and the world was guarded by the vassals. ”

Speaking of this, he paused and looked at Zhao Yu again. Zhao Yu met his gaze and continued: "These Han army princes have made great contributions to the Mongols, and their authority is very heavy, after Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan court, ascended the throne, I am afraid that it will cause a rebellion in the late Tang Dynasty, and then cut his army and demote his position, and the prince will never ......exist again."

The two of them talked, but the rest of the people were confused, and they didn't know why, and they felt inexplicable with Tang Yang's wit and resourcefulness. Although Zhou Dian didn't understand why the two talked about this, because Liu Bowen was brought by him, he looked proud of his face, stood beside the two of them with his chest up, and nodded his head from time to time.

Liu Bowen smiled at Zhao Yu again, and said: "And today, the group of heroes has risen together, and the trend of chaos has been achieved, and these descendants of the Han army are not willing to be lonely, so they feel that their own opportunity has come again! ”

After listening to Liu Bowen's words, Zhao Yu's original problem in his chest suddenly came through, and the marquis of the Han army was unwilling to be lonely, if he wanted to regain power, the world would inevitably be in chaos. The temple counts the rivers and lakes, and the heart calculates without intention, so that many people have entered the urn without knowing it, which is indeed extremely powerful. It's just that this Pingyao Liang family is not afraid of playing with fire**?

Liu Bowen said in a deep voice: "Liangguan Fort in the north of Pingyao City has already collected 3,000 iron armor, and when the time is ripe, you can wave your army into Pingyao City!"

Hearing this, the people of the Ming Sect gasped one after another, originally they only thought that this time was just an ordinary dispute between the rivers and lakes, but they didn't expect that there was such a big conspiracy hidden in it! Although everyone was bold and had done many things to kill officials and rebel, but now they only had more than 30 people on their side, how could they fight against the 3,000 yuan army!

Zhou Dian saw that everyone in the Five Elements Banner had a worried look on their faces, and laughed proudly: "The boys of the Five Elements Banner, now you know that you are stupid, right? If it weren't for Zhou Dian to warn you regardless of your previous suspicions, you would just be a fool!"

Zhao Yu's expression was also very solemn, originally he was just inferring from the perspective of the people of the rivers and lakes, but now with Liu Bowen's prompt, his thoughts became more and more flexible. He muttered: "The Liang family is willing to risk offending the entire rivers and lakes to carry out this conspiracy, and it is bound to be completed in one battle, and it will only be launched when all parties are in the urn, and if any party is missed, there will be trouble." Therefore, as long as the people in your sect do not appear in Pingyao for a day to fight with those people in the rivers and lakes, they will not wait for the time to send troops, and they do not need to worry much. ”

Zhou Dian and the others saw that Zhao Yu was in danger of killing and still being able to keep his face unchanged, calm and free, and his thinking was clear, and his courage was really extraordinary, they couldn't help but admire it more and more, Zhuang Zheng said solemnly: "The fake Tartar's intentions are so sinister, we will definitely fight him to the death." But Zhao Shaoxia suffered a disaster in vain, and he should leave the dangerous place as soon as possible. ”

Zhao Yu shook his head and said: "I have already been in it, and I must not be left alone! If the truth cannot be revealed here, as long as the Liang family kills all the people in the rivers and lakes here, I can fabricate rumors afterwards to explain that the sect colluded with the officers and soldiers to harm the martial arts! And even if I escaped with my life, it would be difficult to gain a foothold, and I would have to deal with the revenge that came one after another on the rivers and lakes. ”

This sentence made the faces of the people of the Ming Sect change greatly, and Chang Yuchun snorted coldly: "I teach the killing of officials to rebel, and I am inseparable from the Tartar court, this is a matter known to the world, even if they fabricate rumors, which one is willing to believe it?"

Zhao Yu said in a deep voice: "There is no shortage of wise people in this world, but rumors can still prevail. The so-called rumors do not need to be completely flawless, as long as someone is willing to believe them, the false ones can be true!"

Zhao Yu's analysis penetrated into the inside, so that the people of the Five Elements Banner became more and more aware of the sinister intentions behind this conspiracy, and it was foreseeable that if this conspiracy could be accomplished, Mingjiao would definitely be discussed by the world! For a while, the atmosphere was extremely calm.

After a while, Zhou Dian shouted: "The sky and the earth are big, and the meal is the biggest! With such big eyes and small eyes, what idea can you come up with! Zhou Dian rushed all the way to warn, you Five Elements Banner shouldn't be stingy and can't even afford a meal, right?"

Zhou Dian's mention, everyone realized that the sun had already slipped through the mid-sky, and it was already afternoon.

Tang Yang clapped his hands and said with a forced smile: "As long as you Zhou Dian takes care of your mouth, how can the Five Elements Banner take care of your meal." But you have to know that you are stained with Brother Zhao's light, otherwise the coarse tea and light rice will send you away!"

The crowd laughed and dispersed to prepare the food and drinks.

Zhao Yu walked into the ancestral hall of the village with everyone, and Liu Bowen arched his hand beside him and said: "Zhao Shaoxia is not only strong in martial arts, but also young and intelligent, and the situation analysis is much more thorough than mine, Liu Ji admires!"

Zhao Yu always felt that the name Liu Bowen was a little familiar, and he didn't think of it just now, but he suddenly remembered it when he was free, and pointed at Liu Bowen and said in surprise: "Is Mr. Liu a Jinshi and the first in the Yuan Dynasty?"

Liu Bowen was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then said a little ashamedly: "Ashamed, ashamed." When I was young, I always felt that I could read the sage book to govern the world and the people, and the sea had been up and down for many years, only to see that the Yuan court was faint, and the people's livelihood was difficult, so he resigned angrily, and now he worships under the teacher Zhang Zhong. Yes, how does the young man know about my old things?"

Zhao Yu said: "My elder brother Zhao Xing was also a Jinshi during the Yuan Dynasty, and I heard him mention Mr. Liu's talent and name when I was at home, so I had some impressions, but I was not sure. ”

Hearing this, Liu Bowen thought for a moment, his expression froze, and he said, "Could it be that the young man is the descendant of Duke Zhao Mengfu of Wei Guogong and Duke Ang?"

Zhao Yu saw that he looked solemn, so he also smiled and nodded: "It is the ancestor." ”

Liu Bowen hurriedly said: "It turns out that the young man is actually the emperor of the previous dynasty, disrespectful and disrespectful! Unexpected, really unexpected!" When he straightened up, his eyes looking at Zhao Yu had already given birth to a trace of eagerness.
