Martial Arts: I am in the Ming Cult and I am building a dynasty

Chang'an City, Daxing Palace, Liangyi Hall.

This was the place where Yang Zhao received his ministers on a daily basis after he came to power. Dozens of people such as Zhangsun Wuji, Yin Shishi, Gao Shilian, Dugu Feng, Yuan Shu, Wei Yuanzhao, Chen Zhibao, Wu Yunzhao, Wu Tianxi, Xin Wenli, Wei Wentong, Shang Shitu, Qu Tutong, Song Laosheng, etc. were all here.

Compared to when Yang Zhao first came to power, he only had three or five trusted subordinates.

Today, Yang Zhao's subordinates are full of talented people and outstanding generals.

Among them, the civil officials were headed by Gao Shilian, and the military generals were headed by Yin Shishi.

It's not that these two people are Yang Zhao's absolute confidants, but they have family background, seniority, talent, and connections, and they are the most suitable.

Gao Shilian was the uncle of Changsun Wugou. With the support of Changsun Wuji, he was better at governing.

Yin Shishi is Yin Lihua's father. He made great contributions in surrendering the city and has great prestige in the army. Even if it is just for the sake of his royal relationship, the generals have to give him face.

"Your Highness, after more than three months, a total of 347 straight roads in Guannei and Longxi have been repaired, and more than 1,400 post stations can now maintain a slight profit."

"In addition, the lands of the 145 counties in Guanzhong and the eight prefectures in Longxi have all been measured, all the prefecture soldiers have returned to the fields, and more than 78,000 soldiers have been recruited..."

Gao Shilian was only in his sixties, but he still had plenty of energy and was in high spirits.

After listening to Gao Shilian's report for nearly half an hour, Yang Zhao waved his hand lazily, indicating that he already knew it, and then looked at Yin Shishi.

Yin Shishi immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the total number of troops in Guanzhong and Longxi is 320,000, including 100,000 Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, 100,000 Zuo Yi Guards, and 80,000 guards at the four passes. The rest are all patrolling in the Western Regions, with sufficient food and grass, and complete military equipment."

"In addition, except for the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, which is managed by General Chen, the rest of the Zuo Yiwei Army has already started the basic military formation training and practiced the art of killing, and the four pass guards have begun to teach the body training method..."

Court officials came out one after another, constantly asking for instructions and reporting on various issues.

The affairs in Guanzhong and Longxi alone took up most of Yang Zhao's time.

However, this kind of small court meeting with all the ministers gathered only happens once every ten days, and after all the forces in Guanlong are completely restrained, the situation will be much more relaxed in the next year.

After things are settled.

Yang Zhao just opened his mouth and said: "Gentlemen, the Guanlong area is left to you to deal with. I have some feelings and will be in seclusion for a period of time..."

Chapter 434 Heading to Luoyang

It is impossible to retreat in seclusion.

Yang Zhao's cultivation has reached a fairly stable level at this stage. The practice of reaching the Martial Saint realm is much more difficult and slower than before.

The seven realms of martial arts, the first five realms.

From acquired to innate, to master, to grand master, and finally to the realm of heaven and man, there is an extremely complete and rigorous practice system.

But the realm of Martial Saint and the realm of Land Immortal are different.

In ancient times, there was no realm of Martial Saint. After the celestial beings were the immortals on land, but some of the authority of the Heavenly Dao was usurped by the immortals in heaven, and the future was blocked.

In the pre-Qin era, there were wise sages who overcame all difficulties and found a ray of hope between the two realms of heaven and earth and created the method of martial saint.

Calling them Martial Saints is actually a respectful title people give to these wise sages.

People call these wise sages, such as Lao Tzu, Zhuangzi, Confucius, Mencius, Mozi, etc., saints. Later generations who benefited from the glory of these saints were called martial saints.

After reaching this stage of practice, there is actually no way forward.

Everyone's path to becoming a martial saint is different from others, and one can only learn from the skills and wisdom of their predecessors. Every bit of progress is equivalent to a step forward at the end of one's martial arts path.

If one day, people can open up a new realm that is adaptable to the general public, perhaps they will usher in another golden age like the pre-Qin era.

But before this unknown realm was opened up.

Even for Yang Zhao, who had a system plug-in, every step on the path to becoming a Martial Saint was extremely difficult.

What's more, in order to sort out Guanlong, build up the army, and rally the military's morale, Yang Zhao had consumed an unknown amount of luck in the past three months.

The bigger the stall, the less luck Yang Zhao has.

Because there are so many things that need to be improved in all aspects of people's livelihood, military and so on, it will take decades or even hundreds of years to rely solely on private development and economic promotion.

Even if Yang Zhao only gave instructions to his subordinates, the cost of this matter involving the lives of hundreds of millions of people would be extremely high.

Now, there are only a few days left before the six-month agreement made by the Fourth Patriarch of Buddhism, Master Daoxuan.

Ten days later, Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Sect will take out the Heshi Bi in Luoyang City and allow people all over the world to fight over it.

Yang Zhao knew that if he said openly that he was going to Luoyang.

Then everyone including Gao Shilian, Yin Shishi, Changsun Wuji and others would not agree.

That's why Yang Zhao used the excuse of seclusion to prepare the White Dragon Fish Suit, secretly went to Luoyang, got the He Shi Bi, and then he could start preparing for Zhu Yun Dynasty.

Yang Zhao has now figured out most of the method of forging the Yunchao Dynasty.

Although it was only the most basic method of the Luck Dynasty, it was enough to increase Yang Zhao's speed in gathering luck several times.

It just so happened that before Yang Guang completely stepped down, Yang Zhao had no choice but to proclaim himself king.

After settling the affairs of the court officials, Yang Zhao returned to the palace and spent two days comforting Changsun Wugou, Yin Xiaoniang, Song Yuhua and others.

Until the third day.

Yang Zhao had just traveled light, bringing Li Xiuning, Wanwan, and Shi Feixuan with him, and appeared in the Hongnong area outside Tongguan.

With Yang Zhao's strength, even if he took the three women with him, he could actually easily break through the void and continue on his journey.

However, Guanzhong is not too far from Luoyang, and because of the Heshi Bi, masters from all over the Sui Dynasty gathered in Luoyang.

No one knows whether there are any hermits among the people going to Luoyang.

So Yang Zhao decided not to be too high-profile before getting the He Shi Bi.

All the way through Hangu Pass, into the Central Plains.

Two strong horses with innate strength were pulling a rather luxurious carriage, running along the official road with a clattering sound.

Yang Zhao held the mischievous Wanwan in his arms in the carriage, telling her to stop doing anything weird, but his eyes kept wandering around on Li Xiuning, who was dressed as a man.

Compared to those sloppy women dressed as men.

Li Xiuning became much more serious about her work. Not only did she use makeup magic to adjust her face to look quite androgynous and handsome, she also pasted a strange Adam's apple on it and used a bindi to cover up her 34D strong chest muscles.

Perhaps he had figured it out before entering Daxing Palace.

Although Li Xiuning has not yet consummated her marriage with Yang Zhao, Yang Zhao has already taken 90% of the advantages for her, and only the last step is left.

It’s not that Yang Zhao is not interested in Li Xiuning.

Instead, Li Xiuning begged Yang Zhao to give him some time to adapt. For this, Li Xiuning hardened her heart and spent a lot of effort on Yang Zhao.

Yang Zhao just likes beautiful women, he is not a sex-hungry person.

Li Xiuning vowed to completely break off ties with the Li family from now on, and Yang Zhao was happy to give her some buffer time.

After three months of getting along, Li Xiuning has actually put most of her heart on Yang Zhao.

If it weren't for the reserved nature of women, she would have given everything to Yang Zhao long ago.

So in the carriage, when Li Xiuning was disguising herself as a man, she did not have the slightest guard against Yang Zhao. At most, she felt a little shy when Yang Zhao looked at her.

I give it to you but you don't want it, and I don't give it to you but you keep looking at it, huh.

After finishing her outfit, Li Xiuning quickly transformed into a handsome woman with a strange and beautiful charm. With her heroic spirit, she gave people a feeling that it was difficult to tell whether she was a man or a woman.

Especially when Li Xiuning was dressed like this and rolled her eyes at Yang Zhao, that unique feeling of charm gave Yang Zhao a special kind of excitement in his heart.

This kind of costume play, which is similar to COS, seems to be very interesting.

"What bad things are you thinking about?"

Yang Zhao's thoughts were scattered and he was a little distracted. Wanwan, who was taking a nap in his arms, was the first to notice some strange changes. After waking up, she gave Yang Zhao a bewitching look.

Snapped!

Yang Zhao hit Wanwan's round spot and said, "Little girl, stop squirming. When we get to Luoyang City, I'll teach you a new way to play. I guarantee you've never tried it before."

Wanwan's eyes lit up, and she raised her neck and said, "Asshole, who are you calling a jerk?"

Shi Feixuan beside her woke up from her meditation and sword thinking, glanced at Wanwan, and said with disdain: "Junior Sister Wanwan, you are still so ignorant of yourself. Only those who are weak know it."

Upon hearing what Shi Feixuan said, Wanwan became furious.

In an instant, the two of them started fighting in a small space.

Chapter 435: Having a Child Makes Me Feel at Ease

Wanwan and Shi Feixuan are natural enemies.

In the past, Wanwan was a demon girl, and Shi Feixuan was a saint girl from the Buddhist sect. Their talents, cultivation, and status were similar, and they were very powerful in the martial arts world.

Later, Wanwan and Shi Feixuan both subdued Yang Zhao and entered the Daxing Palace.

Even after becoming friends from enemies, the two of them were like bickering foes and still fought fiercely.

But unfortunately, because of her Heavenly Demon Body and the Great Law of the Beautiful Girl, Wanwan had no resistance at all to Yang Zhao's Pure Yang and Immaculate Taoist Body, and became a weakling who was both green and playful.

In contrast, after Shi Feixuan's sword heart was broken and her Buddhist heart was rebuilt, she placed all her love, hope, faith, etc. on Yang Zhao, and became very resilient.

During an accident, Yang Zhao, Wanwan and Shi Feixuan played a game of Landlord.

During that process, Shi Feixuan had an absolute advantage over Wanwan.

Wanwan was stubborn and didn't want to show weakness in front of Shi Feixuan, so in the days that followed, she would often drag Shi Feixuan to challenge Yang Zhao to a fight.

Unfortunately, Wanwan was unsuccessful in all battles at night.

Therefore, words like "xiao pa cai" became a taboo for Wanwan, especially after Shi Feixuan said it, the two of them would have to have a fight to determine the winner.

Even if two powerful men at the heavenly realm try their best to restrain their power, the power that leaks out during the fight is often extremely terrifying.

Even with Yang Zhao's protection using the power of the Martial Saint, the entire carriage began to shake.

At this time, they were already approaching Luoyang City.

On the vast official road, a large number of pedestrians on horseback passed by the carriage of Yang Zhao and others. Even people with indifferent hearts would often give them a strange look of respect.

Less than half an hour.

Luoyang City is already in sight, a huge city like a majestic beast, crouching on the vast plain, a hundred meters high, overlooking the passers-by.

As the capital of the Sui Dynasty, the city defense was extremely tight.

Even high-ranking officials and princes in the court had to verify their identities when entering and leaving the city gates.

The wobbly carriage slowly came to a stop after being intercepted by several clever soldiers defending the city.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and a stunning scene came into everyone's eyes.

In the carriage, a handsome man was sitting at the top. In his arms, a pretty woman and an androgynous man were working together to attack a holy and elegant woman next to them.

Unfortunately, the elegant woman was extremely powerful. She used her hands instead of swords and easily suppressed the other two.

Fortunately, after the carriage stopped, the elegant woman also stopped.

As the weakest cultivator, Li Xiuning suffered the consequences, but he was unwilling to admit defeat or ask Yang Zhao for help. He simply walked out of the carriage angrily.

"Stupid man, we are all the same, why don't you teach me advanced martial arts."

"How am I any worse than those two women, huh."

Li Xiuning was muttering in dissatisfaction in her heart, and she made up her mind that if Yang Zhao didn't coax her well, she would never have to waste her energy to help him solve his problems in the future.

And just when Li Xiuning stepped out of the carriage.

On the official road in the distance, a team of armored cavalry with great momentum galloped over quickly. The leader was Li Shimin, the only one of the former Li family who escaped from Guanzhong.

It is said that no coincidence can make a book.

A pair of biological siblings reunited in this slightly awkward situation.

Although Li Xiuning was a woman dressed as a man, Li Shiming recognized his biological sister at a glance while running.

"Xu~"

Dozens of armored cavalrymen obeyed the order and stopped as a whole.

Li Shimin was riding on a horse, more than ten steps away from Li Xiuning on the carriage, and they looked at each other.

Li Shimin reacted quickly and started to speak.

Li Xiuning had already taken the lead and said coldly with a bow, "What a team of black armored cavalry! It turns out to be the second son of the Li family in Taiyuan. I am Li... Yang Li from Hongnong, nice to meet the second son of Li."
