The Holy Emperor of Ming

Chapter 270 The Right Path to Negotiation

Afterwards, a rain of swords appeared in the villa.

Beautiful, brilliant, and sharp.

"You are, Fu Yu Jian? How is that possible?" Xiaoyao Hou's brother Shu Tian was lying on the ground, his breath weak, looking at Lang Fanyun in disbelief.

Then he looked at the people rushing in.

The Feiyu suit and the Embroidered Spring Sword were obvious features that were immediately clear.

"You actually joined the imperial court?" Ge Shutian gritted his teeth.

"I didn't join the court. I'm just helping myself and some people to atone for our sins." Lang Fanyun said calmly.

“Hero Lang.” The man who came in bowed, then looked at Ge Shutian and said coldly, “Ge Shutian, you are a wicked person, and you control dozens of gangs under your command, oppressing the people and making money for you.

Now, you are under arrest."

"Hmph, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit." Ge Shutian said with a grim expression.

····
The top of the sky.

Wang Zhi and Zhang Daoyun arrived.

"Young Master Yu, Yuntian Zhiding, is so arrogant." Wang Zhi looked at the masked figure and chuckled disdainfully.

“It seems that the imperial court is going to take action against the martial arts world. It’s ridiculous that Zhang Sanfeng and Wuji, who are at the level of celestial beings, are serving as dogs for the imperial court.

It won’t be long before Wudang and Shaolin will follow in my footsteps at the top of the cloud sky.” Gongzi Yu sighed.

"Oh, how can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan? It is really ridiculous for you to look at Master Zhang and Saint Wuji with your eyes." Wang Zhi said disdainfully.

After a pause, he sneered, "But you are right. You are a dark person who only dares to hide behind the scenes, who has to launch a substitute to control the power and dare not see people. You don't have much vision.

Speaking of which, your ability to break through to the Grand Master level really makes me curious.

It was just sheer luck. "

Gongzi Yu said nothing, only his eyes emanated a cold light.

"boom!"

"Where can you run to if you want to?"

····
Valley of the Wicked.

The famous gathering place for evil people in Ming Dynasty.

This place is like a "paradise on earth". No matter how big a sin one has committed outside, as long as one escapes into the Valley of Evil, he will no longer be held accountable.

Even the forces of justice were isolated from the Valley of Evil.

To this day, no one in the outside world knows how many evil people have gathered in the Evil Valley.

And so many evil people naturally get their food, clothing, entertainment, etc. from the outside world.

It is conceivable how much power the Evil Valley controls to obtain these for them.

On October 20th, a large number of factory guards rushed into the Valley of Evil.

There is no need to have any expectations of the people here. If anyone does not kneel down and surrender immediately, just one word - kill.

Zhu Ye stood in mid-air, looking coldly at the depths of the Valley of Evil.

He was also curious about the secrets here.

I'm curious about how many powerful people are hiding here, and how even the Kunlun Sect and Tianshan Sect have not been able to wipe them out.

"boom."

Soon, a violent collision began.

····
The large-scale operation on this day went more smoothly than the one in September, and the court dispatched fewer powerful men.

For example, Zhang Sanfeng and Wuji, two people at the level of heaven and man, did not take action again.

This is also normal.

The urban gang forces in the Ming Dynasty, including the forces behind them, are mostly involved in brothels, gambling houses, and pawnshops.

In other words, in the September purge, most of the town gangs that oppressed the people had been dealt with.

The cleansing on October 20th was, in a larger sense, a more thorough cleansing to fill in the gaps of the previous cleansing.

In the next two or three days, Zhu Houzhao received only favorable news.

The shock in the Ming Dynasty's martial arts world, which had never subsided, became even more intense.

This time, many righteous forces really can't sit still.

Because the two purges by the imperial court were so drastic, they directly dealt a heavy blow to the martial arts forces.

After all, this was a case of more than a dozen forces with grandmasters in charge being destroyed.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, how many forces are there headed by great grandmasters?

Even though almost all of them are evil, and there are also evil ways, all the forces in the martial arts world feel the pain of one's teeth being in danger and the grief of the other's death.

There are also two righteous forces, the Murong family of Qixingtang and the Beggar Gang. One was captured and the other was thoroughly investigated, which completely aroused the anxiety of the righteous forces.

They sent people to Shaolin and Wudang to ask for an explanation.

When many righteous martial arts forces decided to send people to Shaolin and Wudang to seek Dharma, Zhu Houzhao was consummating his marriage again.

In the festive palace, Yang Yaoqin was wearing a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe, which added a touch of beauty to her pale and bloodless face.

Less elegant, more beautiful.

She is stunningly beautiful and as pretty as a fairy.

After completing a series of rituals, Zhu Houzhao automatically cut off a bunch of his hair and handed it to Yang Yaoqin.

Yang Yaoqin was stunned, her clear eyes seemed to be filled with doubt.

"Yaoqin, you don't know about married couples, do you?" Zhu Houzhao asked in surprise.

"I know." Yang Yaoqin said calmly, cut off a bunch of her own ink-black hair, took Zhu Houzhao's, and tied them together.

What she didn't say was that she was not the queen and had never thought of marrying Zhu Houzhao.

But since the other party took the initiative to ask, she certainly would not refuse. No decent woman would not want to become a married couple.

"Yaoqin, will you consummate your marriage?" Zhu Houzhao asked with a smile, quite proud.

Yang Yaoqin immediately clenched her hands, lowered her eyes, and remained silent.

"Ha, I knew you couldn't do it. It doesn't matter. I can do it. I'll teach you." Zhu Houzhao smiled, thought for a moment, and added, "Don't worry, this is your first time. I'll be very gentle."

'Being too frank is not good sometimes, it makes you look like a frivolous scoundrel.'

Yang Yaoqin felt a little embarrassed and annoyed.

But she could still feel the sincerity, so she didn't feel disgusted.

"I'll take off my clothes first."

"I'm going to start taking off your clothes."

"I'm going to kiss you now."

"I want—"

"Your Majesty, please don't speak."

····
The encounter of spring breeze, rain and dew is better than countless things in the world.

Zhu Houzhao felt very comfortable, but the problem still existed: the body was too delicate, which made him feel uncomfortable.

In less than an hour, Zhu Houzhao stopped, said a few words, and began to practice.

Yang Yaoqin, with a look of fatigue between her brows and a bit of blood on her fair face, looked at the man in a daze.

From now on, he is her husband.

Okay.

It wasn't as high-handed and depressing as I had imagined.

"Master, Senior Sister, Yaoqin's husband is better than I imagined."

Her thoughts fluctuated for a while, and under the will that seemed real but felt familiar, Yang Yaoqin fell asleep exhausted.

the next morning.

After having breakfast together, Zhu Houzhao left.

Two days later, Guo Bujing quickly went to the palace to report, and many righteous forces in the martial arts world sent people to Shaolin and Wudang to ask for an explanation.

"Explanation? What explanation do they want?" Zhu Houzhao frowned.

"Your Majesty, we believe that the righteous forces are feeling uneasy, so we want Shaolin and Wudang to lead them in negotiating with the imperial court." Guo Bujing said. This was the result of discussions among their senior leaders.

The situation is now clear.

The imperial court has already decided the outcome, and the two celestial beings from Shaolin and Wudang are determined to help the court. If these two righteous leaders from Shaolin and Wudang do not take action, no one will be able to resist the court.

The remaining martial arts forces are unable to unite even if they want to.

They had no other choice but to force Shaolin and Wudang to represent the righteousness of the martial arts world and negotiate with the imperial court.

"Hmph, the imperial court is upright and never wrongly accuses anyone. What are they uneasy about? In my opinion, they are just guilty." Zhu Houzhao said unhappily.

“Your Majesty, there are indeed many people who are guilty, but I think it will be difficult for Shaolin and Wudang to refuse this time.” Guo Bujing said seriously.

"Why?" Zhu Houzhao was puzzled.

“Your Majesty, Shaolin and Wudang are the leaders of the righteous martial arts forces of the Ming Dynasty. It is precisely because of this status that Shaolin and Wudang can help the court stabilize the righteous martial arts.

Now the righteous martial arts world has sent people to Shaolin and Wudang to negotiate with the imperial court on their behalf.

How do Shaolin and Wudang refuse?

If they refuse, it will be difficult for Shaolin and Wudang to be the leaders.

Moreover, the two families have close ties with various righteous forces and have many relatives and friends, so it is really difficult to refuse.

By then, even if it is Master Zhang or the Wuji Saint Monk, it will be difficult for them to reject the opinions of most of the Wudang and Shaolin disciples." Guo Bujing said solemnly.

Zhu Houzhao thought about it and understood.

Thinking about it this way, it is indeed difficult to refuse Shaolin and Wudang.

Even for Old Man Zhang and the old monk, it was difficult for them to do anything when all the Shaolin and Wudang disciples were in favor of negotiation.

He looked serious and asked, "Old Guo, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, there are two choices now." Guo Bujing said solemnly: "The first is to do our utmost to stop the righteous forces from going to Shaolin and Wudang.

There are also many righteous forces that have close relations with the imperial court.

As long as they don't go, we will find ways to persuade some forces not to go.

At that time, if their numbers are not too large, they will naturally not represent the righteous path, and naturally they will not be able to force Shaolin and Wudang to do anything. "

“As for the second one, my court will ignore it for now.

Let's see how the situation develops. Even if Shaolin and Wudang agree to negotiate with the imperial court on behalf of the righteous path, they can first see what the content of the negotiation is. This is a good opportunity to find out the bottom line of the righteous forces.

Whether it is agreed or not at that time, as long as Shaolin and Wudang cooperate, it will still be in the hands of our court.

At the same time, our court is willing to negotiate, which also gives the righteous forces in the martial arts world some room to ease the tension, so that they can feel at ease and stabilize the overall situation. "

"It seems that you would rather wait and see before negotiating with them?" Zhu Houzhao pondered.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Guo Bujing said frankly.

Zhu Houzhao thought seriously for a while, nodded, and said seriously: "Okay, let's take a look first. I also want to know what they want.
Tell Wudang and Shaolin that they can cooperate with the righteous forces."

"Yes." Guo Bujing replied.

"How long will it take to finish this?" Zhu Houzhao asked again.

“Your Majesty, the cleansing in September was only preliminarily completed. With this one, if we want to finish it completely, I’m afraid it will take until next year.

But once it stabilizes, it will be ready before the New Year." Guo Bujing said truthfully.
