Ming Dynasty: pacifying the rebellion and defending the border, dominating the world

Chapter 31: The grand invitation, the feeling of disillusionment

Zhang Sanfeng was not being polite this time, but was truly grateful.

He was indeed within striking distance of heaven, but whether this was truly within striking distance, or a world away, even Zhang Sanfeng himself wasn't sure. It was not uncommon for people trapped in the immortal realm on earth, claiming to be within striking distance of heaven, yet unable to take that half a step forward.

Zhang Sanfeng is naturally no exception.

The kindness of a celestial being on land can become a trump card.

Not to mention the promise of Zhang Sanfeng, the martial arts legend who is about to enter the realm of heaven and man on land?

Zhu Jinzhen understood this and didn't refuse. He simply smiled and said, "Master Zhang, you're too kind! If it weren't for your extraordinary wisdom, even with my extraordinary abilities, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to help you."

"This time the real person is in sight, it is a cause for celebration."

"Haha, congratulations, thank you again." Zhang Sanfeng also laughed heartily. Zhang Wuji's health problem had always been a lingering haze in his heart, but now it dissipated by about 70% in an instant.

In the realm of heaven and man on land, he is known as a true immortal in the world, with unfathomable magical powers.

Problems that cannot be solved by the immortals on earth may no longer be difficult in the eyes of the celestial beings on earth.

Even if the famous doctors in the world cannot solve Zhang Wuji's problem this time, if Zhang Sanfeng is given some time to comprehend the mystery of immortality, he may be able to solve the hidden dangers of Zhang Wuji's body himself.

It can be said to be a double happiness, how could Zhang Sanfeng not be excited?

Zhang Sanfeng was overjoyed at his first glimpse of the mysteries of heaven and man. He asked Zhu Jinzhen many questions about the realm of heaven and man on land. Zhu Jinzhen answered them fluently and explained to Zhang Sanfeng many mysteries and insights of the realm of heaven and man on land.

For a moment, Zhang Sanfeng was reluctant to leave.

……

When Zhu Jinzhen and Zhang Sanfeng were discussing the mysteries of heaven and man on land.

A private house somewhere in Jiayuguan.

Bang! !

The gate of the yard was violently blown open.

Zhu Wusi and Wan Sanqian, who were having dinner in the hall, were both startled.

"not good!"

Zhu Wusi's expression suddenly changed, and he was about to slip away.

But suddenly he found that there were many uninvited guests outside the yard.

"Qin Yiyan of Tiance Mansion, on the orders of His Highness, invites the Divine Marquis to Tiance for a meeting."

Qin Yiyan, holding two maces in his right hand, led the Tiance soldiers and marched straight to Zhu Wusi's hall. Zhu Wusi and the four ghosts from Xiangxi wanted to resist, but before they could make a move, the mighty momentum was like the collapse of the sky and the pressure of the falling mountains pressed down on them.

Zhu Wushi's pupils shrank, and he said in horror: "Three celestial phenomena, one hundred names of the Mysterious?"

"Pfft, what did the Divine Marquis say?"

Wan Sanqian was so scared that he spat out all the soup in his mouth.

The four ghosts from western Hunan, who had already activated their Phantom Magic, instantly stood obediently aside.

Qin Yiyan smiled faintly: "The Divine Marquis has good eyesight."

"Prince Su, why did you invite me?"

Zhu Wusi frowned, his heart was in turmoil.

He hadn't told anyone about his trip to Shaanxi, and he thought he hadn't revealed his whereabouts. He couldn't figure out how Zhu Jinzhen had found him and had even sent Qin Yiyan, the deputy commander of Tiance Mansion, to lead his troops!
choke! !

Qin Yiyan swung his right hand, and the sharp edges of his two dragon-breaking gold maces were pointed directly at Zhu Wusi, the Iron-Hearted Divine Marquis.

"I have been ordered to invite the Divine Marquis to the banquet!"

Putting the Wandering Dragon Broken Gold Mace on Zhu Wusi's neck to invite him is called holding an imperial official hostage, while pointing at the tip of his nose to invite him is called a "high-profile" "invitation"!
"Humph!"

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhu Wusi relaxed his tense body. He flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly, and stood up. "I've never seen such a way of inviting people before. Today has really broadened my horizons. I'll probably discuss this with Your Majesty when I return to the capital."

"please!"

Qin Yiyan spat out a word coldly. As for whether Zhu Wusi, the Iron-hearted Divine Marquis, was going to submit a memorial to the court or discuss it with the emperor, that was none of his business.

All of this has a prerequisite: Zhu Wusi can return to the capital alive.

"Shenhou!"

Zhu Wushi, who was standing beside him, shouted worriedly.

"Let's go. Since Prince Su has personally sent someone to invite us, we have to go even if it's a Hongmen Banquet."

Zhu Wusi's face was gloomy. He didn't know why his whereabouts were exposed, and he didn't know why Zhu Jinzhen sent someone to invite him, but he knew that he had no choice.

This is Jiayuguan, the territory of Prince Su’s Mansion.

Even if he was confident that he could shake off the three great masters of celestial phenomena and the hundred masters of the Profound Finger Realm in front of him, it would probably be difficult for him to escape from Jiayu Pass.

However, Zhu Wusi was not too worried about his own safety.

No matter how domineering Prince Su is, he would never dare to openly kill royal relatives in broad daylight. He still has confidence in this.

"Oh~!"

Wan Sanqian sighed deeply. Even Zhu Wusi didn't dare to resist, so how could he, a small businessman, dare to act rashly? He could only lower his head and obediently follow the soldiers of Tiance Mansion.

Qin Yiyan put on a sneer on his face.

To deal with them, does His Highness need to hold a Hongmen Banquet?
This Iron-Hearted Divine Marquis might be barely qualified, but that fat businessman is not.

Wait until a few people are gone.

Some spies who were curious about why Qin Yiyan was so ostentatious also showed up.

"Iron-hearted Divine Marquis Zhu Wusi, the most skilled warrior in the Ming Dynasty court, a true master of celestial phenomena. Even if the enemy is three celestial phenomena, he should still give it a try."

"If there is hope, then it's called giving it a try; if there is no hope, then it's called committing suicide."

"What do you mean?"

"It's true that there are two celestial phenomena standing behind Qin Yiyan, but this is Jiayuguan Pass. The Prince Su is in the Tiance Palace. How far is it from here? If Zhu Wusi makes any rash moves, he will be met with even more terrifying thunderbolts."

"Perhaps Prince Su will take action himself."

"That makes perfect sense."

Those dark shadows lurking in the darkness come and go in a hurry, gathering and dispersing invisibly.

Although they did not get any useful and accurate information, seeing Zhu Wusi being taken away by people sent by Prince Su with great fanfare made the trip worthwhile. They all had to hurry back to report.

……

Zhu Wusi, who was "invited" back to Tiance Mansion by Qin Yiyan's troops, never dreamed of this.

He arrived at Tiance Mansion and Qin Yiyan went to report.

Although they were very far apart, more than ten feet away, the Grand Master of Astronomy could easily mobilize the weather of heaven and earth and borrow the power of heaven and earth, so this distance was not far at all.

Therefore, the conversation between the two people who were chatting happily in the room also fell into Zhu Wusi's ears.

"Master Zhang? Could the person inside be Zhang Sanfeng?"

As he listened carefully, Zhu Wusi discovered something terrifying.

The martial arts legend Zhang Sanfeng from Wudang Mountain is in sight, and he claims to be indebted to Prince Su, and says that he will go through fire and water to help Prince Su as long as he needs it?

At this moment, Zhu Wusi suddenly felt a little cold.

It wasn't the weather, but a sudden chill that penetrated his heart, so cold that he shivered.

Zhu Jinzhen commands millions of soldiers and is also the youngest land-based swordsman in the history of the Ming Dynasty. It is already extremely difficult to deal with him, and now he has the support of Zhang Sanfeng.

For a moment, Zhu Wusi couldn't even think of how to bring down the towering Su Wang Mansion.

"Perhaps, perhaps the person inside is not Master Zhang of Wudang."

"It's just a play directed and performed by Prince Su to plot against me!"

Zhu Wusi could only comfort himself in this way, otherwise Zhu Jinzhen, together with Zhang Sanfeng, his ambition, dream of becoming emperor, and all his calculations would directly become a pitiful joke.
