Chapter 172 See His Highness

Fish and Dragon Gang these years, difficult to sustain, Hong Hu Men Liu Jian faction of these young students are wide open the way of wealth, flourishing, Fish and Dragon Gang are said to be Feng Shui problems, Liu old master helpless, looking for the Long Mo County, several skilled in geomancy green sacs of the high people to find out, silver money spent a lot of money, but also in accordance with what the high people said to do a lot of remedial means, still did not have a rise, and over time, there are rumors of yin and yang private Offense, the spearhead pointed directly at the refusal to marry Liu Nirong, at the moment it was almost extinguished, Liu Nirong heart of self-blame how can light. Especially when the bundle of Long Mo County’s next parent Zhong Cheng Xin, Liu Nirong knew that this disaster will never be able to stop, Liu old masters have no hope to get a foothold in Lingshou. They are not clear about the details of General Wang Zhi, this military general just so big grin sitting on the yellow pear tutor’s chair from the old Western Chu handed down to the northern Liang, suppression of the old master of the gang of Liu’s atmosphere do not dare to come out, first of all, the Zhongfu scribe to the custody, let a person shocked, and later even the Zhong family son did not let go, but nearly 1,000 county pawns only dared to cower in the outside, so that the Fish and Dragon gang hanging a breath of life half-dead, the life of a thread of taste, not easy to bear. The feeling of life hanging in the balance is not pleasant.

When old master Liu saw Huaihua general Zhong Hongwu stride across the threshold, the old man suddenly heart dead as ash, hands and feet cold, he did not think in the north of the Liang messed with the famous violent general Zhong, who can still save the fish and dragon gang. Really fingers count up, one hand can count over, but unfortunately those are all high characters, such as the king of northern Liang Xu Snapdragon, into the king of Shu Chen Zhi Bao, the murderous Chu Lushan, and Zhong Hongwu with the military power of the northern Liang Yan Wenluan, Liu, the old master of this life have not been able to see from afar one side. Zhong Hongwu’s arrival, the situation immediately reversed, even the unbeatable Wang Zhi obviously have a few nervous, after all, the old man in front of him is the nominal commander-in-chief of the 100,000 iron horsemen of the Northern Liang, is one of the few handsome generals in the Northern Liang army, following the massacre of thirty years of military service, especially in the Spring and Autumn wars to save up the hefty battle achievements casually pick out a, can be crushed. Wang Zhi put down the cup of tea, holding his breath, still did not stand up.

Beiliang territory, one of the few literati embryo Zhong Chengxin is ecstatic, he has never suffered such a big loss in his life, to the arrogant soldiers tied dumplings like randomly thrown on the cold floor, and constantly admonished their own soldiers can be killed not to humiliate themselves, and with great difficulty to hold back the tears and urine. Instead of that staff scribe heart peace release at the same time eyes gloomy, eyes always staring at the unexpected Cao Cao military attaché, he was born in Lingzhou book family, had traveled to Jiangnan six years, followed a hermit studied the vertical and horizontal, is not the kind of paper pile of fools, the first Zhongfu heard of the murder of Wang Zhi riot, he had politely reminded the Zhong Chengxin which must be fishy, can not be reckless, can be pressed to wait to see! Things, but the very heavy face of the Zhong Chengxin failed to carry Tang Ziyi’s encouragement, coupled with the eldest son of that spend the day drinking brother-in-law added fuel to the fire, deliberately said that Wang Zhi intentionally to take the Zhong family to open the sword to establish the authority, as long as the Zhong family to take a step back to show weakness, there will be no way to retreat, and in the future Wang Zhi this kind of soldier who does not know the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky and the sky, and will strutting ride on the top of the Zhong family shit and urine, and this can be poked in the Zhong family’s heart itchy soft ribs, and he has always been a Confucian general, and he has been a Confucian general. He has always been a Confucian general, since childhood, envious of Cao Changqing Chen Zhi Bao, both military reputation, Zhong Chengxin usually in the House of cultivation, in addition to those of the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also will practice the sword, or in the banquet with the people talk about the art of war, the people in awe of him is the only son of the great general of Huaihua, do not dare to have any refutation, but just flattered, Zhong Chengxin will be more and more self-hatred, had personally carved a seal, the book has “Twenty years late in life, regret not in the spring and fall” cross, in the eyes of the scribes, is nothing more than a light and funny private complaints. As a staff, he acted cautiously, also acted a handful of good plays, since Zhong Chengxin insisted on tasting the addiction of hand-led soldiers, he would be happy to come to the noteworthy fish and dragon gang to add firewood, just did not think that Wang Zhi is really under the cruel hand, directly to their own capture, he was surprised, and secretly scorned, not in the brutal gesture of Wang Zhi, but in the fish and dragon gang of the several young people unreasonable calm, he despised! He looked down on the embroidered pillow of Zhong Chengxin, does not mean that he despised all the disciples of the family, could it be that he was expected to be an elaborate premeditation against the Zhong family? The Zhong Chengxin Longmu County County Governor’s position? Or is it something bigger?

He had thought that when General Huaihua came with his spear, all the conspiracies would come to light, and then like ice water quickly melted in the hot power of the General. Zhong Hongwu although with the king of Beiliang gambling, resigned from the position of cavalry commander, but the salary is still there, the official title remains, although some of the power loss, but never the general can be provoked, he dares to assert that at this time seems to be in the king of Beiliang in front of the “out of favor” of the old general, is even the military Yan Wenluan do not dare to openly comment on the officialdom is this interesting, Zhong Chengxin became the next county governor of Longmu County. Long Mo County’s next governor, is a wake-up call to the entire Beiliang officialdom.

But the next scene, the hall crowd unforgettable.

The white-haired young man slowly tore off his face, revealing a rare handsome feminine face with a pair of peach blossom eyes, but the young man’s appearance is clear and elegant, but there is a Zhong Chengxin this life will never have a majestic style.

Xu Snap’s Xu.

When Wang Zhi heard these words, he violently clenched his teacup. Wang Zhi is undoubtedly courageous and is equipped with real talent martial arts, otherwise it would not be able to do often personally lead the elite cavalry to go to the western region of thousands of miles of banditry feat, I am afraid that this is also the border primus unique “Yixing” handwriting, can let Wang Zhi admiration of few people, not to mention younger than his role, but after that interception, personally learned Han Sable Temple invincible, plus the aftermath with the king of Beiliang drinking water. But after that interception, personally learned Han Woliji’s invincibility, plus afterwards and the king of Beiliang drank a wine, probably know five or six points of the truth of the Wang Zhi, on His Highness is really some of the both shock and fear, he Wang Zhi three thousand cavalry but intercepted Han Woliji a person, as for the Jiange colleague under the command of the two thousand riders of the He Yan, can not talk about how to fight, Han Woliji through the cavalry array after he and the He Yan have a tacit understanding of the evacuation of the battlefield, each of them are not intended to be more than twenty years of hard work are at stake! The first time I saw him, I was in the middle of a battle. But the battle of Iron Gate Pass, as far as Wang Zhi knows the power on the surface, is the Prince Zhao Kai with two hundred imperial guards and a dozen of hidden golden sword guards, there is a top master of the female bodhisattva escort, Xu Fengyen surprisingly with his personal guards battalion so straightforward to kill the past, in case of Zhao Kai and the court has a backhanded arrangement, Xu Fengyen is not afraid of suffocating the death of the battle over there? Afterwards also have to drag the whole Beiliang are put on the big hat of rebellion, it is not like just want to be a decade of hereditary king of Beiliang young man ah! It is determined to both with Chen Zhi Bao hallowed competition for the king of Liang and to let the court shall not interfere in the west of the two-pronged approach ah!

Wang Zhi took a deep breath and knelt down with his armor on, his armor clanging as he respectfully said, “My General Wang Zhi, see Your Highness!”

Old Gang Master Liu was puzzled and froze on the spot. Liu Nirong and Wang Dashi were even more baffled, not believing for a second that this Duke Xu, who had his fill of running off to North Mang, was the Prince of North Liang.

Zhong Hongwu is worthy of being a great general of Huaihua who has been following the human butcher for half a lifetime, suddenly seeing the young son who met again after many years, he was only a little surprised, never fearing a little, if there was a little bit of optimism or fear of this young man, how could Zhong Hongwu scold the son for selling out in front of Xu Snapdragon, the old general smashed the iron spear in his hand into the ground with a loud bang, glanced diagonally at Wang Zhi with a face of disdain, then looked towards Xu Fengnian, who was visiting Longmou County in his private service, and said: “I’m not sure that you are the Prince of Northern Liang, I’m not sure that he is the Son of Northern Liang. Then he looked at Xu Fengnian, who was visiting Long Mo County in private, and laughed coldly, ”Oh? It’s actually the son of the world personally visiting Lingzhou, dare you say that you have a crush on a girl? I’ll say it in advance, the prostitutes selling meat in the greenhouse, it’s best if you spend money, if it’s a willingness to fight, it’s just a matter of time, I don’t care, but if you rob the people’s girls in Long Mo County, not to mention the 1,000 cavalry of Wang Zhi, even if we add your White Horse Guards, I’ll seize all of them without missing a single one!”

Liu Nirong was creeped out by a smooth squint from the accumulated authority of Great General Huaihua.

Xu Fengyen handed over the root skin to the green bird, looked at Zhong Hongwu, who was like a tiger dying and not falling down, and gently laughed: “Don’t bite a this general, all are already discharged from the armor and return to the field of the old man, and feel at ease to enjoy the blessings of life on the good.”

The old general’s angry hair and beard, already looks terrifying, after glaring round copper bell eyes, is even more imposing, drank: “The vertical son dare? Other people when you are the general’s eldest son, the eyes of this general you are a useless waste, look at your ridiculous behavior for more than ten years, Northern Liang delivered to you, as a child’s play! You are lucky that you are not the son or grandson of this general, otherwise I would have broken your arms and legs with a stick to prevent you from going out to do wrong!”

Xu Fengnian laughed it off.

The identity of the son of Northern Liang was nailed down, Liu Nirong and Wang Dashi looked at each other in dismay.

Zhong Chengxin root cowardice, heard that is the son of Xu Fengnian, even if there is Zhong Hongwu town, is still quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, although he relies on the identity of the son of the great general of Huaihua in the Longmu County to get wind and rain, but after all, there have been a number of years of experience in the officialdom, coupled with the Zhong House of the high points, for the human condition is not unfamiliar with the world, the King of Hell is good to see the little ghosts are difficult to deal with the truth is still aware of the truth, actually in the bottom of the heart of the heart of the Zhong Chengxin for the In fact, the heart of Zhong Chengxin for the father against the king of Beiliang resigned from the official position, grudges in the future of the king of Beiliang, privately very disgusted, but also do not understand, if Chen Zhi Bao did not take the initiative to leave Beiliang, the white soldier saint is still a sure victory, dad so attitude, Zhong Chengxin can also agree, and right as a kind of officialdom speculation. But now is the most powerful stage of the son, Zhong Chengxin also read a lot of pages of dead blood-soaked history books, which change of dynasties and the most is the head rolling down the good time, Zhong Chengxin do not want to be this kind of foregone conclusion on the head of the Zhong family, take a step back, you as a general of Huaihua grandfather can be a grandchild, back to his hometown to enjoy the blessings of a decade or two, they still have most of their lives to climb in the bureaucracy, and so on Xu Fengyin! When Xu Fengnian became the king of Beilang, even if he is not affected by the fish, is not this life will have to obediently die in Longmu County County Governor this position is not up and down? He Zhong Chengxin has always regarded the next Secretary as a great talent of the country!

In the hall, Liu Nirong was the most confused and at a loss.

The relative of the General of Lingzhou who was spat on by the darting crowds of the Fish and Dragon Gang, the steward of the General’s House? The son of a lowly government official who chose to stand by and watch without any chivalry during the siege at the Pouring Horse Pass? That aloof person who only talked to Wang Dashi? The oily son of a rich man who talked to him as uncle and nephew in the city he left behind? The rascal who bargained with the water seller at Yan Hui Pass to warm up his heart? That half-assed jianghu man who wore a sword but didn’t use it even once?

How could he be the hereditary son of Northern Liang?

His last name is Xu, but how can he be the Xu Fengyen that she should never have crossed paths with in her life?

Grand General Huaihua took Xu Fenian’s smirk as a well-deserved flinch, and with a wave of one hand, gave the order, “Untie him!”

Xu Fengyen glanced at Zhong Chengxin and the scribes of the Zhong Mansion and looked back at Zhong Hongwu, “Why?”

Zhong Hongwu laughed back in anger, “Who do you think you are? Even if the great general is here, this general will make you release them honestly!”

Wang Zhi, who had been kneeling on the ground, raised his head and said sternly, “Zhong Hongwu, don’t rely on your old age! A thousand of my cavalry will be able to flatten the small Long Mo County!”

Zhong Hongwu didn’t even look at Wang Zhi, he just clasped his hands on his chest and arrogantly said, “Are you worthy to talk to this general? Wang Zhi, you also paid Xu Fengnian for your title, right? Do you dare to go to the Liangmang border? Be careful not to see the Northern Mang cavalry charging and get so scared that your three legs go soft.”

Wang Zhi’s face was expressionless as he said coldly, “Zhong Hongwu, I respect that you and my father are colleagues, if you humiliate me again, in the future, I, Wang Zhi, will make sure that you can’t take it all in your stride!”

Zhong Hongwu laughed out loud, “Your father? Surnamed Wang? Let me think about it.”

Zhong Hongwu converged his laughter, paused briefly, and turned his head to sneer, “In the Northern Liang Army, there is really no general with the surname of Wang that has caught my eye in the past thirty years! Who is your father?”

Wang Zhi gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Xu Fengyen coldly watched Zhong Hongwu’s domineering behavior.

Beiliang army in small mountains, Zhong Hongwu as cavalry commander for nearly ten years, his generation of veteran generals, only Yan Wenluan military prestige can be comparable to it, Zhong Hongwu is deservedly a mountain mountain king, coupled with the previous Chen Zhi Bao’s young and strong lineage, the three mutual constraints, the Beiliang army in addition to the Daxue Dragon Cavalry Army and the Dragon Elephant Army and other branches of the army, the absolute most power by the trio divides the entirety of the three, and, of course, to the official position! Military achievements are all the first of the Northern Liang Zhi Bao as the first, Yan Wenluan followed by Yan old general forces under his command than Zhong Hongwu slightly less, but far more than the explosive character of Zhong Hongwu more will be the way of the official, know more about the management of the cultivation, under the direct line than the bell system climbed up quickly, deducted from the Hoon official scattered officials of the more than eighty real power of generals, Yan Wenluan disciples under as many as close to thirty, the number of people is much higher than the bell Hongwu’s few more than ten, but the more it is, the more the bell Hongwu, the more it is, the more it is, the more the bell is the most important thing is that it is the most important thing. The more so, Zhong Hongwu more and more do not know “rules”, so many years Xu Snapdragon has been more tolerant.

After Zhong Hongwu reprimanded Wang Zhi, he turned to Xu Fengnian and said with a sneer: “Are you still not going to untie him? Otherwise beware that this general will go to the royal residence to scold you again with the great general face to face!”

Xu Fengyen, who originally still had some smiles, heard these words, his eyes as cool as water, his tone gently surprised: “Oh?”

Zhong Hongwu argued, “Otherwise, what do you think? Do you still intend to follow me to my residence to apologize?”

Xu Fengyen held his horse whip and said to Old Master Liu, who was walking on thin ice, “Please leave Old Master for a while.”

Zhong Hongwu laughed harshly, “No need! You threw your own face on the ground, so don’t blame the outsiders for stepping on it a few times.”

Xu Fengnian did not insist and laughed, “I heard that Zhong Hongwu you are a veritable second grade expert? Invincible in the Spring and Autumn Trap?”

Zhong Hongwu held the iron spear standing upright on the ground with one hand, “Beating you Xu Fengnian two hundred is not a problem after all.”

Chen Xiliang’s brows were furrowed and his ten fingers were clenched.

Xu Beihao, on the other hand, smiled knowingly.

Out of the corner of his eye, Chen Xiliang caught a glimpse of Xu Beihao’s idle demeanor and quietly loosened his ten fingers.

Xu Fengnian nodded, “Good, then I’ll take a lesson.”

After Zhong Hongwu heard this, he looked around, shook his head and laughed, “Letting that little green-clothed woman take the battlefield for you? Or let your lapdog Wang Zhi? Xu Fenian ah Xu Fenian, why don’t you let them help you become the King of Northern Liang?”

Xu Fengyen had one hand hanging down, one arm extended, and his sleeves swept in front of his body.

Twelve flying swords hovered in the air for two stops.

They were of different lengths and different colors.

Xu Fengyen flexed his fingers and flicked one of the flying swords, softly reciting, “Tai Ah.”

“Kill the second lieutenant in the hall.”

A sword passed over the head.

The second time he flexed his finger and flicked the flying sword, “Peach Blossom.”

“Kill Yibi’s lieutenant Tang Ziyi.”

The third time, he flicked his flying sword, “Xuan Lei.”

“Kill Zhongfu’s staff Tang Duan.”

The scribe and the hall of sub-lieutenants died the same way, died violently on the spot.

The old and strong Zhong Hongwu’s robust body trembled, let go of the iron spear, as if it was incomparably arduous to slowly bow his head and whisper, “Greetings, Your Highness the World Son.”

Fourth sword, Xu Fengyen’s finger rested on top of the flying sword, “This sword Huangtong.”

Looking towards Zhong Hongwu whose face was pale, he asked, “Kill Zhong Chengxin?”

Zhong Hongwu slightly raised his head, his eyes were mixed with many emotions, fury, shadowy, resentment.

There was also a trace of awe that had never been seen before.

Xu Fengnian calmly said, “Then with so many handles remaining, killing a great disrespectful Zhong Hongwu should always be enough.”

Great General Zhong Hongwu of Huaihua flopped down and knelt heavily, “Zhong Hongwu see His Highness the World Son!”
