Zhao Yu's choice to announce the matter of the martial arts hall under such circumstances is indeed conveying a message that cannot be refused.

In this assassination, no matter who did it, he smelled a hint of urgency from it. The time that was originally sufficient for Chuzhou has gradually become embarrassing, which makes him change his original idea of balancing all parties, and he is no longer ready to waste time on the infighting between the various factions in Chuzhou.

There is no doubt that the most reliable force in his hands is Mingjiao, and choosing this time to strengthen Mingjiao will temporarily cause dissatisfaction among the gentry, but with his current unparalleled popularity among the people, it is enough to eliminate these disadvantages. At another time, things may not be settled like this.

He set up a martial arts hall and held a martial arts test, not only as simple as dismantling the rivers and lakes, but also wanted to eliminate the essence of Mingjiao, and let go of these people with a hope and something worth protecting, instead of being cynical and wanting to subvert all the ugliness in the world, but pinning his hope on the vain Ming King to come into the world and the unsullied world. He can't be as decisive as Zhang Zhong, abandon all the rules and rituals in the world, and change his life, but he is not willing to repeat the stories of the rise and fall of past dynasties, and he has to struggle to find a way in the middle.

All the tantric teachings that can deceive the world are all painting bread to satisfy hunger. Whether it is the Confucian world of great harmony, or the Western bliss of Buddhism, or the immaculate world of Mingjiao, they are all vain and unexpected. In addition to encouraging people to pursue unforeseen extravagance, there is also no lack of truth that is truly based on the present and applied to the world.

The teachings of Mingjiao have been inherited for so many years, in addition to the crazy rhetoric of those foolish people, there is also no lack of theories based on the present, and there is no lack of real explorers like Zhang Zhong, but they are scattered and unsystematic. Therefore, the only scriptures that are really magnified and exploited are those that are designed to stir up dissatisfaction and violence in people's hearts.

If we want to reverse the situation of Mingjiao, and even promote its rebirth, it is not a temporary achievement, and it is bound to be a long way to go. The selection of martial arts candidates is the first step, and the next thing Zhao Yu has high hopes is that he hopes that the Interpretation Bureau of Caochuang can sort out a set of Zhongzheng, peaceful, steady and rigid scripture theories.

Of course, these are all things that need to be done after RI. The most important thing now is to strengthen ourselves, otherwise, everything will still be empty talk.

After pacifying the chaotic cultists inside and outside the city, Zhao Yu returned to the city again, but he didn't have time to go home, so he went straight to the Chuzhou Mansion. He suddenly threw out such a news, although the situation blocked people's mouths, but the necessary explanation was still needed.

In the government office, Liu Bowen and other strategists with a Ming background and Zhu Sheng and others were clearly distinguished, and the atmosphere between them was a little stiff.

Zhao Yu walked into the hall, first looked around, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, because of my attack, everyone is so tired that everyone has no time to rest until now." ”

Although there was a lot to say, but the necessary greetings still had to be said, everyone got up one after another to ask how Zhao Yu's injuries were.

Zhao Yu sat behind the big case, waved his hand to let everyone sit down, sighed first, but did not give everyone a chance to speak, and said directly: "Shocking, really shocking! If you don't experience it yourself, you really can't imagine that there is such a vicious assassination method in the world!"

He recounted his experience of the attack from beginning to end, and there was no lack of exaggeration, and as for the method of hiding poison in his blood, it was enough to be creepy without exaggeration. Especially the miserable state of the several soldiers who were poisoned, everyone looked at it, and when they heard Zhao Yu mention it again, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on their backs, and secretly said that if the enemy set the target for himself and others, he would definitely not be spared!

Zhao Yu also said with a happy face: "Fortunately, the enemy directly assassinated me this time, and the plot failed, resulting in a startling snake." For the sake of safety, I made a temporary decision to recruit brave and capable people, firstly, to prevent these people from arrogant and lawless, and secondly, to strengthen the power of the governor's office to protect itself. The newly established Xiaoguowei, I plan to divide it into three parts, which are directly under the control of the Governor's Office, one is responsible for protecting the security of the Governor's Office and the local government offices, one is responsible for searching for the murderers in various places, and the third is responsible for the personal protection of your lords. I wonder what you think?"

Hearing Zhao Yu's arrangement, contradictory thoughts arose in everyone's hearts. First, I naturally hope that my safety can be guaranteed, but secondly, I don't want my words and deeds to fall into the eyes of outsiders. This is really a dilemma, if you want to be protected by the Governor's Office, you must be closely monitored. For a while, everyone thought carefully about weighing it, but forgot their previous plan.

Zhao Yu saw that everyone was hesitant, so he said: "This is also an expedient measure in an extraordinary period, after the assassination is revealed and the dust falls, this Xiaoguowei will be withdrawn after all." ”

When everyone heard this, they could only nod their heads and agree. In this chaotic world, although the gentry and the characters in the rivers and lakes are more or less implicated, and they can organize their own self-protection forces, but this matter is not easy to talk about.

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Sheng spoke: "This martial arts test is indeed a suitable move, but the people who take the test are narrower, if only Ming Sect disciples are allowed to fill the position, but it is biased to turn away many other warriors in the world who are aspiring to serve. I thought that this layer of restrictions could be opened, so that all rivers could be embraced, and all the brave warriors in the world would be in the general urn!"

Zhao Yu nodded and said, "What the old gentleman said is serious, but it coincides with my plan. However, this first year's martial arts test is imminent and urgent, but it is too late to announce the world. Moreover, the lecture hall corresponding to the martial arts test has not yet been created. So, this first year is a compromise approach. After the establishment of the martial arts hall, it opened its doors to accept the heroes of the world!"

If you can't stop it, you will mix sand, although Zhao Yu understands the gentry's intentions, he doesn't intend to stop it. Only by making them genuinely enthusiastic can this decree be carried out more thoroughly. Not to mention anything else, just the important ministers of the governor's mansion such as Ye Chen, the prefect of Chuzhou, have a constant connection with the Wudang faction, and only with this as a breakthrough can it be easier to disintegrate the entire rivers and lakes.

The gentry also expressed different views on the use of samurai in the martial arts. Zhao Yu didn't intend to let these warriors suddenly take on important responsibilities, so he didn't question the gentry's restrictive intentions, and accepted them all. If they can really determine the status of the samurai and what kind of benefits they want to seek, it is their own business, but Zhao Yu has no obligation to charge for them.

This conversation is close to late at night. At the end of the meeting, Zhao Yu suddenly pointed at Liu Bowen and Zhu Sheng and said: "The Ming Sect is powerful, and it should not be underestimated, and this matter must be properly handled." I have brought back a lot of Mingjiao scriptures and texts from the Western Regions, and I am going to set up a bureau of exegesis in the near future, so if you two have free time, you might as well join in. ”

Hearing this, Liu Bowen just nodded because he already knew a little about Zhao Yu's plans, and he didn't feel anything yet. Zhu Sheng's face was filled with a hint of joy, nodded and smiled: "This is good, I am an old bone, and I have spent most of my life in books and pen and ink. This time it was deactivated under the general manager's account, and I felt more and more unusable. The Exegesis Bureau is a good place to go, and I want to see what this exotic scripture is like. ”

Zhao Yu said with a smile: "The old gentleman is a master of literature and ink, and my father has praised you for coming, and you are sitting here, which has made me feel at ease." Not only this hermeneutical bureau, but in recent years, my father has also intended to sort out many books in the family, and I also hope that the old gentleman can be ambitious and fight again in the book mountain, can you serve the old man!"

After Zhu Sheng heard this, his face was already flushed, and he hurriedly said, "Can this be taken seriously?"

Seeing that Zhu Sheng, who was insightful of the world, still had such a fierce reaction when he heard this, Zhao Yu understood that for Confucians, the attraction of those rare books and unique books in the family was not stingy with the Nine Yin True Scriptures in the martial arts hundreds of years ago. He nodded and smiled, "It's natural." ”

Seeing that Zhao Yu was sure, Zhu Sheng's old look on his face had subsided a lot, and Lang smiled and said: "I am fortunate to be able to join such a grand event of literature and ink, and it is said that it is already old, even if the king of Hades comes to invite me, I also ask him to give me a few more years!"

Listening to his funny speech, everyone laughed.

The meeting was over, but Zhao Yu was not idle, so he changed a carriage and rushed to the mansion where he usually met. He asked Hu Qingniu's wife if he could deduce the origin of some of the assassins from the poisonous methods. (To be continued.) )
