Chapter 306 Every man is innocent and pregnant with crime

Chapter 306 Everyone is innocent and guilty

Qingli eight years, early winter.

The rebellion of Chengyang Hou, which shocked the world, came to an end.

The Marquis of Chengyang, who had been stubbornly resisting for several months, fought to the death with his confidants in Linjiang City, and finally ran three thousand miles to exhaust himself.

At this point, the Chengyang army collapsed.

The three terrestrial gods of the White Lotus Sect, known as the Three Saints of the White Lotus, went off in person and quickly gathered the remnants of the White Lotus Sect to retreat to the northern border of Yunzhou and return to the base camp of the White Lotus Sect.

The imperial court divided its troops into three groups and hundreds of thousands of troops swept across the three prefectures of Yunliangqing and Qingzhou, constantly besieging and suppressing the remnants of the rebels.

However, when the imperial army rushed to the northern border, they encountered tenacious resistance from the remnants of the White Lotus Sect. The White Lotus Sect was deeply rooted in the northern border of Yunzhou, and it happened to be winter, with early snow in Yunzhou. It seemed difficult to completely recover the northern border. In this case, The emperor personally appointed Ji Fu, the Duke of Lu, known as the God of the Great Xia Army, to go to Yunzhou in command.

The war started again,

Ji Fu is worthy of the name of the **** of war. He commanded several battles in a row, and directly beat the White Lotus Sect without temper. The imperial army continued to advance, and the White Lotus Sect sent envoys to negotiate peace.

Northern border of Yunzhou, imperial barracks.

In a tent, a large group of people are sitting. These people are high-level people who participated in all aspects of the war to recover Yunzhou, including the military, the Qin Tianjian, and the six departments of the imperial court.

At this time, the person sitting in the main seat was a gray-haired old man with a stern face and wearing an armor. Just sitting there, he was not angry and pretentious, forming a strong sense of oppression.

This person is Ji Fu, the coach of the Yunzhou battlefield.

In addition to being the Duke of the state, this Ji Fu also came from the clan of the Ji family of the current royal family, and this time, he will be in command, which is also the result of a game between all parties.

At the bottom left of Ji Fu is a rather handsome middle-aged man, who looks a bit gloomy. This man is the military supervisor—Pingjinhou Lvchang.

The identity of the Marquis of Pingjin, Lu Chang, is not simple. He is not only the nephew of the current empress dowager, but also the elder brother of the current empress. He is known as Uncle Lu, and he is also the patriarch of the Lu clan, one of the three great clans today.

The first person on the right is Zheng Qin You, the supervisor of Qintian Supervisor in Yunzhou.

Speaking of which, although Qin You’s status is not low, he is not even a star behind these two. However, because of the success of the Death Plan, everyone who understands knows that Qin You, as the executor, must be in full swing in the future, and even has It is rumored that the emperor is already preparing to let Qin You return to Beijing to take up the post of Taiwei, ranking among the three princes.

At this time, besides these three, there are some officials in this tent, all of whom are of very high status, and, without exception, they are all confidantes of these three.

Ji Fu looked at a letter on the table and said, “Have you all read it?”

Lv Chang nodded slightly and said: “The White Lotus Sect is willing to withdraw from the northern border, but the imperial court needs to give them a place to settle down in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.”

“I think they’re just dreaming!” Ji Fu snorted coldly, and said, “The White Lotus Sect was encircled and suppressed more than ten years ago, and they escaped by chance. match?”

There was a silence in the tent, no one spoke.

Ji Fu narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, “Why, do you have any other ideas?”

In the tent, there was still a moment of silence.

After a while, Qin You smiled helplessly, and cupped his hands towards Ji Fu and Lu Chang: “Grand Master, Hou Ye, one of you is now a marshal and the other is a military supervisor. This kind of frustrating words that offend people , can only be said by the official.”

While talking, Qin You glanced around the crowd and said, “We have to consider the proposal of the White Lotus Sect. Although our army is in dire straits now, the national treasury can’t afford it, so we shouldn’t waste too much time.

No matter what the reason, Yunzhou has been fighting for three years, and this year, the three states of Yunliang and Qing are at war. The Three Sages of the White Lotus are here, if we really want to gnaw it down, I’m afraid we will lose all our teeth.

Second, our top priority now is to regain the three states of Yunliang and Qingzhou as soon as possible. Taking advantage of the serious losses of the Ling family and the Dugu Clan, we can restore various orders in the three states as soon as possible. If it takes a long time, no one can guarantee that the Northern Wei and Southern Wei Will Jin stop the war and attack us?

Our time is limited, and we have been preparing for the recovery of the three states for so many years before we found this opportunity. Once the war between the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Jin Dynasty ceases, they will take advantage of the emptiness of the three states of Yunliangqing and Qing Dynasty. Therefore, it is the best choice not to continue fighting with the Bailian Sect .

Today’s White Lotus Sect is gone. Entering the Hundred Thousand Mountains is just a stronger Jianghu force. Although the Hundred Thousand Mountains are easy to defend and difficult to attack, their own resources are also limited. What we need is time. When the three states are completely calmed down, the White Lotus Sect will never have another chance to make waves. ”

In the tent, there was a moment of whispering.

Seeing this, Qin You smiled helplessly,

Actually, none of you here are fools. They all know the current situation. The imperial court doesn’t have much energy and time to persevere in the White Lotus Sect.

It’s just that no one wants to say it out, that’s all.

This decision, when returning to Kyoto, will inevitably be condemned by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

However, Qin You doesn’t care,

Qin Tianjian enjoys the position of supervising all officials, so he has offended countless people. He has been insulted by the court for a long time over the years, and he is used to it.

After a while of discussion,

Ji Fu said in a deep voice: “Master Qin, you are very considerate, but there is one problem.”

Qin You cupped his hands and said, “Please give me your advice.”

Ji Fu said slowly: “Speaking of which, this incident was also caused by your mistake, Mr. Qin…”

Hearing this, Qin You reacted instantly and said, “Your Majesty is talking about Yunhou Gu Zhan?”

Ji Fu nodded slightly, and said: “In order to cooperate with your plan, the imperial court gave Gu Zhanyun the name of Marquis and the post of General of the Town Army. Originally, at the time, I thought that there was nothing more than a martial artist at the peak of martial arts. Fame, it doesn’t matter, but now, who would have thought that he broke the limit of martial arts and directly won the entire Yunxi.

Although he has not yet recruited many troops, relying solely on his influence in Yunxi, it is difficult for anyone to intervene in Yunxi’s affairs, and the Hundred Thousand Mountains are in his hands. Throw it to the White Lotus Sect, can he agree? In addition, I am afraid that Marquis Yun will also feel resentful towards the court? ”

Qin You smiled lightly, and said: “My lord is right. This matter is indeed my miscalculation. I didn’t expect that someone could break the limit of martial arts. However, because of this, we need more Give it to the White Lotus Sect.”

Ji Fu frowned slightly and said, “How do you say?”

“Check and balance,” Qin You said: “Let’s not talk about Yunxi, there is no one in the entire Yunzhou who can check and balance Gu Zhan. Now, although he doesn’t have much thoughts, it’s hard to guarantee that he won’t have other thoughts in the future!

Therefore, it is a good thing to let the White Lotus Sect enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It is well known that the White Lotus Sect has different intentions. As the Marquis of Yun, Gu Zhan must guard against the White Lotus Sect for a long time, so as to form a check and balance. ”

At this moment, Pingjin Marquis Lu Chang who had been silent all this time said slowly: “Master Qin, have you ever thought about what if Gu Zhan also had a different heart and cooperated with the White Lotus Sect?”

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the tent became a bit oppressive, and many people showed unnatural expressions on their faces.

Now Gu Zhan is famous all over the world, and he is in the limelight. Since beheading Lao Tianshi and Wei Wuya, he has become the number one master from the number one master in the world.

In this case, if Gu Zhan cooperates with the White Lotus Sect on one side of the separatist regime, the troubles will be no less than that of Chengyanghou, or even worse.

Qin You smiled slightly and said: “This is the follow-up arrangement of the official. You have never been with this Yunhou, so you don’t know his character.

This Gu Zhan is self-willed, very successful, arrogant, and very arrogant. Everyone has heard of these characters, and he has another character, that is, he will be punished and killed.

According to his character, as long as he is allowed to forge a big enmity with the White Lotus Sect, there will be no possibility of cooperating with the White Lotus Sect. ”

Ji Fu’s eyes lit up, and he asked, “What is Mr. Qin going to do?”

Qin You said slowly: “Directly tell Gu Zhan that the White Lotus Sect wants a hundred thousand mountains, and then invite him to come to the northern border to encircle and suppress the White Lotus Sect. He has two choices, one is to come, and the other is to make excuses to avoid it.

If he comes, then let him take the post of the general of the town army and lead the army to fight against the White Lotus Sect. In the process, whether he will form a death feud with the White Lotus Sect is up to us to arrange… ”

Specifically, Qin You did not elaborate,

However, everyone present could understand that even if Gu Zhan and the White Lotus Sect were restrained, they could secretly facilitate some deadly enmity, such as letting someone close to Gu Zhan die at the hands of the White Lotus Sect.

Qin You continued: “In this battle, after Gu Zhan and the White Lotus Sect forge a death feud, we will cease the war in the name of being overwhelmed by the court. Unless Gu Zhan can single-handedly challenge the White Lotus Sect, otherwise, he can only fight.” Let the White Lotus Sect enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains.”

After a pause, Qin You said again: “If he doesn’t come, we can justly let the White Lotus Sect enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Gu Zhan can’t find any reason to make trouble. After all, he didn’t come by himself. We didn’t Being able to successfully destroy the White Lotus Sect, unfortunately allowed the White Lotus Sect to enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

As for the White Lotus Sect after it entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains, with Gu Zhan’s domineering personality, it only needs to cause them to have some conflicts, and the endless situation can easily be facilitated. ”

After all, Qin You cupped his hands to Ji Fu and Lu Chang and said, “You two, to sum up, letting the White Lotus Sect enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains is indeed a good thing that has the best of both worlds. There are still so many rebels in Qingzhou and Liangzhou today, it is because the White Lotus Sect has not completely fallen, and they are all lucky. Order can be restored quickly.

The second is to check and balance Gu Zhan. This son of Gu Zhan is indeed a big trouble. At the beginning, I did not expect that he could achieve such an achievement. After all, Zizi is just a common man. After the three states are settled down, he will have no chance to make any more disturbances! ”

In the tent, everyone started talking,

After a while, almost everyone agreed with Qin You’s decision.

However, Qin You still frowned, looked at Ji Fu and Lu Chang, cupped his hands and said: “Right now, I only have one doubt, and I hope that the Lord and Hou can give me some guidance.”

Ji Fu and Lu Chang looked at each other,

Ji Fu said: “Master Qin, please ask me!”

Qin You looked around at the others.

Both Ji Fu and Lu Chang also understood what Qin You meant, so they ordered everyone to leave the camp.

In the tent, only Qin You, Ji Fu, and Lu Chang were left.

Qin You cupped his hands and said: “My doubts involve the secret of the cave, so I need to shield others.”

Qin You took a deep breath and said, “Grandfather, Lord Hou, I know that there are restrictions on the land gods in the Dongtian Realm, so they generally do not appear in the world, but Gu Zhan has no restrictions, and he has already killed three land gods.” Even if it was a head-on confrontation, two land gods were killed, and one of them was said to be a land **** who had lifted the restrictions on the cave, so I want to ask, is this Gu Zhan really invincible in the world!”

Ji Fu and Lu Chang looked at each other, and they both smiled lightly.

Ji Fu looked at Qin You, and said, “Forget it, with Lord Qin’s contribution to the court today, it doesn’t matter if I tell you something about the heavens.”

Qin You cupped his hands and said, “I also ask the Lord for advice.”

Ji Fu said slowly: “People in the world only know that above the Supreme Grandmaster are the land gods of the Dongtian Realm, but few people know that the Dongtian Realm is also divided into strong and weak realms, and each realm is very different.

The Dongtian Realm is divided into five realms, known as the Five Realms of the Dongtian Realm, and the three land gods that Gu Zhan killed were all just the lowest realm in the Dongtian Realm. Of course, being able to kill land gods also shows that Gu Zhan is indeed extraordinary, but to say that he is number one in the world, that is to watch the sky from the bottom of a well! ”

Lu Chang nodded and said: “Don’t say anything else, let’s just say that Gu Zhan fought twice, neither the old Tianshi nor Wei Wuya used their supernatural powers. I don’t know if the supernatural powers of Sword King City were lost, or the two of them did not use their supernatural powers. Learn, if the two of them use great supernatural powers, Gu Zhan really may not have the chance to achieve the so-called number one in the world.”

Qin You came to a sudden, and asked: “Then what kind of land gods are the Three Saints of the White Lotus?”

Ji Fu said slowly: “The three sages of the White Lotus are all land gods of the first realm and the second realm, but the White Lotus Sect still has a heritage, and that is the legendary White Lotus Heavenly Mother!”

Qin You was startled suddenly, and said in amazement: “Bailian Tianmu? How could she be alive? Isn’t she from more than three hundred years ago?”

Ji Fu nodded and said: “This is what the Huaisu monk of Guangming Temple told me. He said that the Holy Mother of the White Lotus has always been alive, and that the White Lotus Sect has been controlled by the Holy Mother of the White Lotus for more than two hundred years. As for why she can live It’s been so long, no one knows, according to records, the longest-lived land **** is only over two hundred and forty years old, but if this White Lotus Virgin is really alive, it would be a bit scary!”

Qin You frowned slightly, and said, “Is this the reason why the imperial court has not destroyed the White Lotus Sect?”

Ji Fu shook his head and said: “This is not the point, the main reason is that land gods are not easy to kill, don’t be misled by Gu Zhan killing land gods, under normal circumstances, land gods are very difficult to kill.

In addition, there are restrictions on land gods, and few people are willing to fight to the death. For example, there are several land gods in our army, as well as the Huaisu monk from Guangming Temple. This is a land of the three realms. immortal.

But he didn’t dare to break into the army to kill the land gods, and he didn’t know how long it would last. If he entered a restricted state if he didn’t pay attention, he might be directly surrounded and killed by the army. ”

Qin You took a deep breath and said, “Then… Gu Zhan’s method of seeing the gods and Wei Wuya’s new method of cave…”

Ji Fu narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: “Now, these two methods are actually in the hands of Gu Zhan, that’s all because of the Three States War during this period…”

Qin You pondered: “What does the Lord mean?”

Pingjin Marquis Lv Chang who didn’t say much said with a light smile: “I’m innocent, I’m just guilty, after all, it’s a three-state war, and Gu Zhan has the status of the imperial court. He’s still clean for now, but it’s hard to say in the future. , The way of seeing God is ten times and a hundred times more attractive than Wei Wuya’s, but I don’t know how far Gu Zhan can break the limit?

However, even if he is only capable of breaking the limit of martial arts, it is enough to make the whole world crazy. ”

Ji Fu smiled lightly: “Don’t talk about this, let’s do it like this today!” Then, he looked at Qin You and said, “Master Qin, don’t worry, Gu Zhan cannot be invincible.”

Qin You cupped his hands and said, “Since that’s the case, I’m relieved, and I’m leaving!”

After finishing speaking, Qin You turned and walked out of the tent.

Watching Qin You leave, Ji Fu suddenly chuckled and said, “This Qin You has become obsessed with Dongtian Realm, and today’s plan against Gu Zhan is quite selfish!”

Lu Chang took a sip of tea, smiled lightly and said, “Could it be that it doesn’t suit the Lord? The Lord doesn’t want to see the law of God?”

Ji Fu smiled, and said, “Isn’t it the same for Lord Hou? Or, in this world, is there anyone who can refuse the method of seeing God?”

Lu Chang shook his head and sighed lightly: “Yes, who can refuse the method of seeing God, this Gu Zhan is really a genius, comparable to the martial ancestor and martial saint!”

Ji Fu narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: “However, few people know that the ending of the Martial Ancestor and the Martial Sage is very bad.”

“It doesn’t matter,” Lu Chang said, “Gu Zhan will also be famous in history, but this son is really a bit evil, my lord, our two families can join hands.”

Ji Fu poured tea for Lu Chang, and said, “Master Hou, why don’t you tell me how to join forces?”

Lu Chang narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Ji Fu, and said, “Grandpa, let’s open the skylight and speak honestly. Do you really believe that the method of seeing God was created by Gu Zhan, a boy in his early twenties?”

Ji Fu froze for a moment, then slowly said: “It turns out that Lord Hou also thought of this question!”

Lu Chang chuckled lightly and said, “Gu Zhan has the ability to see the gods that breaks through the limits of martial arts. No one in the world will doubt this, but whether he created the method of seeing the gods himself is doubtful if you think about it carefully. There are too many places, and I believe that he has obtained a terrifying inheritance.

Three thousand years ago, the Martial Sage devoted his entire life to creating Martial Dao. Over a thousand years ago, the Martial Master was almost an enemy of the whole world in order to integrate Martial Dao. to date.

And in the past few thousand years, I don’t know how many amazing and talented people, how many famous families, the big clans tried their best to take another path, and they all wanted to break the limit of martial arts, but no one succeeded. Pass.

Gu Zhan, a person with such a low background, without any background, and no famous teacher to guide him, all depends on him running around and practicing blindly. It is lucky that he didn’t train himself into a useless person, but he has reached this level. This unimaginable height is weird and unreasonable. ”

Ji Fu nodded and said, “That’s right, I also had this doubt, so I went to investigate Gu Zhan’s life. Ever since he woke up from a serious injury coma in the fourth year of Qingli, he has always been full of extremely strange things. .

The original Gu Zhan had been a waste with no martial arts talent for more than ten years, and his personality was also indecisive, the kind that would not dare to kill a chicken, but, overnight, he directly cultivated and crossed several realms, and He became a ruthless person who killed people without blinking an eye. From then on, he was almost like a **** blocking and killing gods, and a Buddha blocking and killing Buddha.

What’s even more weird is that no one has ever seen Gu Zhan break through. That is to say, he has never been in a state of breaking through from a person who doesn’t know martial arts to being the number one in the world in martial arts. , as if it came naturally,

Maybe he was still a master two days ago, and inexplicably became a grand master two days later. This kind of situation is not uncommon in the short few years since his debut. His cultivation seems to be that he himself is an extremely powerful monk. , the same as in the step-by-step restoration of cultivation. ”

Lu Chang took over the conversation and said, “To tell you the truth, when I got the investigation information, I confirmed it again and again. I couldn’t believe it was true. Moreover, there is another weird thing. Did you notice?”

“What?” Ji Fu asked.

Lu Chang said slowly: “Gu Zhan, he can practice martial arts without distinction. Even conflicting martial arts can be practiced at the same time on his mobile phone. In addition, what is even more terrifying is that he seems to be able to practice any martial arts in a single thought, or It is said that there is no bottleneck, and, similarly, there is no sign of a breakthrough, and the cultivation has been inexplicably completed! If the cultivation base is recovering, then the martial arts and supernatural powers cannot be recovered, right?”

Ji Fu nodded and said, “I’ve noticed this too. People in the world only know that Gu Zhan now possesses the method of seeing gods that breaks the limit of martial arts, and they are coveted for his method of seeing gods, but they ignore the strange inheritance of this person. This is the real Baoshan!

A person who can practice any martial skill, can turn a person without martial arts talent into a genius with no bottleneck or upper limit in cultivation. This inheritance is the real horror and the real inexhaustible treasure. ”

Lu Chang narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, “It’s just that I can’t imagine what kind of inheritance can be so terrifying?”

Ji Fu said in a low voice: “I was also skeptical at the beginning, even, I suspected that Gu Zhan might have practiced some kind of magic power, because he likes to kill people, I have doubted for a long time whether the magic power he practiced would be good or not. The meeting is to improve the cultivation base by killing people and practicing blood.

But later, I found out that he has practiced several exercises all the way to the present, all of which are righteous exercises. His liking to kill people should be purely due to his personality, domineering and arrogant,

However, on the contrary, his character also reflects that he should have obtained a great inheritance, otherwise, how dare he be so arrogant and domineering, and make enemies with everyone at every turn. He should be aware of the power of that inheritance, so he has no fear! ”

Lu Chang smiled slightly, and said: “So, the lord has guessed something?”

Ji Fu chuckled lightly and said, “I believe Lord Hou should have thought of a place with me—Xianmen!”

Lu Chang nodded and said: “Only those fairy sects in the legend can have this treasure inheritance!”

Ji Fu said slightly: “Then, let’s join forces!”

Lu Chang chuckled lightly and said: “We should join forces, such a treasure is naturally the virtuous ones like us to live in it!”
