Chapter 48: Poor picture and daggers
"Although Huang Jun's Seven-Star Linked Arrows is a unique military skill, the fundamental skill that Huang Jun relied on to achieve a first-class realm is the Wudang Sect's superior internal skill - Pure Yang Gong."
In Xuzhou County Government Office, Zhao Yuguang said this to Wu Longyuan.
When Huang Jun was young, Zhao Yuguang used his power to get him into the army for training.
Zhao Yuguang knew a lot about Huang Jun's situation.
"Woo...Woo..."
When Huang Jun heard what Zhao Yuguang said, he started to whine.
It seems like he wants to explain something, to justify something...
Unfortunately, his lower jaw had been removed by Zhao Yugang a long time ago, and now he couldn't speak at all.
I could only whimper and cry randomly.
Wu Longyuan was also stunned when he heard what Zhao Yuguang said.
Internal strength techniques are the foundation of a martial artist, and few outsiders know about them.
Huang Jun's official position was previously higher than Wulong Yuan.
Before this, Wu Longyuan naturally had no way of knowing what the foundation of Huang Jun's internal strength was!
Unexpectedly, Huang Jun's foundation of internal energy was actually the famous Wudang school's superior internal energy - Pure Yang Gong.
What Wu Longyuan didn't expect was that he actually knew Huang Jun's foundation method under such circumstances.
and…
Wu-Tang Clan?
That’s a big sect in the underworld!
What was Lord Zhao trying to do by leading things in that direction?
Wu Longyuan was puzzled.
In this martial arts world, the imperial court does not share the world with the gentry and scholars, but with the warriors.
The big martial arts sects that have mastered the power of martial arts have a high status in this world.
Moreover, Wudang Sect is the state religion of the Ming Dynasty!
His position in the political arena is also good!
"My Lord, what you mean is..."
Wu Longyuan looked at Zhao Yuguang tentatively.
“You’ve got a good idea!
The assassination of Wu Ge'er must be related to the Wudang Sect!
Otherwise, why would Huang Jun, who had achieved a first-class level with the help of Wudang's superior internal energy, suddenly assassinate Wu Ge'er just after the Wudang disciple Zhuo Yihang, who was severely injured by Wu Ge'er, returned to Wudang?
This is worth pondering!
Also, the Wudang Sect has nothing to do with Wu Ge'er!
Why did Zhuo Yihang suddenly come to Xuzhou to challenge Wu Ge'er?
This is what caused everything...
We also need to investigate carefully!"
Zhao Yugang's true intentions are revealed.
Wu Longyuan didn't know Zhao Yuguang's purpose, but nodded in agreement.
What Zhao Yuguang said makes sense.
Due to his limited knowledge and information, Wu Longyuan had no idea why Zhuo Yihang suddenly came to Xuzhou to challenge Zhu Chengwu.
He didn’t even know that the prince was standing behind Zhuo Yihang!
"Since County Magistrate Wu agrees with what I said, then let's submit the petition!"
Zhao Yugang said this while Wu Longyuan was unaware of the inside story and nodded in agreement.
"Written in a letter?
What book to read?
Wu Longyuan was stunned. He didn't understand what Zhao Yuguang meant.
"Of course, I will submit a letter to report the results of today's investigation and trial to the Ministry of Justice and the King!
Magistrate Wu, you don't think that the matter of Huang Jun and the Wudang Sect teaming up to assassinate the king's son is something that a county magistrate can decide, right?"
Zhao Yuguang looked at Wu Longyuan as if he were a fool.
Wu Longyuan became more and more stunned.
"My Lord, My Lord! So you know that this matter is not something that a mere county magistrate like me can decide?"
Wu Longyuan secretly complained in his heart.
But Wu Longyuan would never dare to say these words in public.
However, due to this interruption, Wu Longyuan completely forgot that there was no investigation or trial during his visit to the court this time, let alone any result.
All of this was said by Zhao Yuguang.
He was completely led by Zhao Yuguang.
Moreover, Zhao Yuguang had already determined the nature of the matter in just a few words.
Huang Jun and Wudang Sect teamed up to assassinate the king’s son!
Zhuo Yihang is the cause of everything.
There are people involved behind the scenes!
"This is an urgent situation, County Magistrate Wu, please write it here!
After writing it, we will go to the prefect of Xuzhou to report everything!
Then, through the court channels, the whole story of the matter was reported to the court officials and the king as quickly as possible.
Wait for the king and the officials of the court to decide!"
Zhao Yuguang did not give Wu Longyuan time or chance to recover and spoke directly.
Impressed by Zhao Yuguang's status and position, Wu Longyuan really began to write memorials in the hall of the yamen according to Zhao Yuguang's request.
Moreover, the content of the memorial was almost the same as Zhao Yuguang's meaning, except for some rhetorical processing, which made the whole memorial more literary.
He is indeed a talented scholar who has gone through the test of thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.
He is no less capable than Zhao Yuguang, a military man who has been maneuvering in the imperial court for decades.
Even better!
In the Ming Dynasty, every scholar who passed the imperial examination and was appointed as an official could be called a talented scholar.
Zhao Yuguang looked at the memorial in his hand with satisfaction.
"I, what am I doing?"
At this time, Wu Longyuan finally reacted.
Don’t blame Wu Longyuan, it’s just that Zhao Yuguang’s status is too high and his martial power is too strong.
Coupled with the sudden change, Wu Longyuan was so distracted that he had no time to think.
I just followed Zhao Yuguang's instructions in a daze!
Just like Zhu Chengwu’s previous life, there were always many smart people who acted stupidly at critical moments.
It is because the people I face are different and the pressure in my heart is different, which leads to ups and downs and imperfections in my on-the-spot performance.
Even Zhu Chengwu himself, in his previous life, used to boast about his achievements on the Internet and in private, but once he stood in front of his teachers and leaders, he was at a loss for words.
It is difficult for people living in society not to be affected by their social status, which causes them to put enormous psychological pressure on themselves.
Just like Wulong Yuan now.
Moreover, it is not just the psychological pressure caused by status and force.
Zhao Yuguang also added some rhetoric and psychological hints in his conversation with Wu Longyuan.
Of course, Zhao Yuguang has no use for some extraordinary powers that might leave traces.
Whatever you do, leaves a trace!
Zhao Yuguang can use the master's unique extraordinary power to influence Wu Longyuan more easily and make Wu Longyuan act completely according to Zhao Yuguang's wishes.
But by doing so, other masters might discover that Zhao Yugang had used his extraordinary power to influence Wu Longyuan.
Zhao Yuguang has big plans and doesn't want to leave any loopholes.
This is just right using only words and hints that don't have any supernatural power!
It can achieve the purpose without leaving any trace.
"Let's go! Magistrate Wu!"
Zhao Yuguang put away the memorial in his hand with satisfaction and said to Wu Longyuan.
"Walk?
What to go?
Where to go?
Wu Longyuan, who had just reacted and was still a little confused, looked at Zhao Yuguang in confusion.
Wu Longyuan was really stunned by the series of unexpected events and his own ignorant behavior.
“Didn’t I just say that?
Go find the prefect of Xuzhou!"
Zhao Yuguang didn't give Wu Longyuan time to come back to his senses, and signaled Zhao Xingye to go forward and take Wu Longyuan away.
At this time, Zhao Xingye finally vaguely understood some of Zhao Yuguang's actions.
Although Zhao Xingye still doesn't understand that Zhao Yuguang's ultimate goal is the crown prince.
But Zhao Xingye knew that the old patriarch's actions definitely had other meanings.
It would definitely be the right thing to do to obey the old patriarch’s orders at this time!
Zhao Xingye immediately stepped forward, seemingly inviting him, but in fact he secretly took Wu Longyuan hostage and led him out of the county government gate.
With Zhao Xinghan backing them up and the guards of the Marquis of Fu'an's mansion taking action, no one in the county government stood up to stop the actions of Zhao Xingye and the others.
It’s not that Wu Longyuan is a bad person, there is not a single loyal person in the entire county government.
In fact, if Wu Longyuan struggled or shouted for help, there would still be loyal fans who would stand up!
A gentleman is loyal until death!
Sacrifice your life for the Lord!
It has always been a noble quality encouraged by the Ming Dynasty.
After all, such qualities are beneficial to the upper echelons of the dynasty. But Wu Longyuan himself has not yet fully recovered.
Not to mention struggling or calling for help!
Moreover, Wu Longyuan vaguely remembered that Zhao Yu had just mentioned going to see the prefect, and he did not object at that time.
Plus, the memorials have all been written!
Also, Wu Longyuan and Fu'an Marquis Mansion have been getting along well over the years!
Although Wu Longyuan cannot be classified into Zhu Chengwu's camp, Wu Longyuan has a good impression of Zhu Chengwu.
Wu Longyuan also wanted to find out the mastermind behind the assassination of Zhu Chengwu.
Under the combined influence of multiple factors, Wu Longyuan acquiesced to Zhao Xingye's actions.
Wu Longyuan didn't say anything.
Naturally, other people in the county government would not take the initiative to stop Zhao Yuguang, Zhao Xingye and others.
After all, who would want to take the risk of dying when you can live safely?
People are afraid of death!
Human nature is selfish!
This has been the case throughout history.
Therefore, in the history of Zhu Chengwu's past and present lives, there were so many incidents of taking the heads of generals amidst thousands of troops.
Let’s not talk about the existence of such extraordinary powers as warriors in this world.
But Zhu Chengwu's previous life was a mortal without any supernatural powers.
The achievement of taking the general's head amidst thousands of troops was achieved not only because of the general's bravery, but also because the enemy soldiers were afraid of death and did not dare to try to stop him.
Otherwise, we are all mortals, how can we break through thousands of troops and take the general's head as easily as taking something out of a bag?
How could they obtain the general's head and then break through the encirclement of enemy soldiers?
All this is nothing but the enemy soldiers are afraid of fighting and death, and they work without putting in any effort, or even do not work at all!
Watching Zhao Yuguang, Zhao Xingye and others walking out of the lobby with Wu Longyuan.
The common people, spies and others who were watching outside the county government hall dispersed in a swarm.
Then someone left secretly.
They had to go back and tell their masters everything that happened at the scene.
Let the master make the decision.
Zhao Yuguang did not deliberately conceal it, they heard the entire conversation between Zhao Yuguang and Wu Longyuan.
Although they still don't understand what Zhao Yuguang's ultimate goal is.
But nothing is trivial when it comes to the Grandmaster!
What's more, this also involves a number of bigwigs in Xuzhou Prefecture, including Marquis Fu'an, the prefect, and Commander Huang.
They must report the situation on the scene to their masters as soon as possible.
Of course, more people chose to follow Zhao Yuguang and others to the Xuzhou prefectural government office.
They are all people who like to eat melons.
Don’t want to miss out on some fresh melon!
And Zhao Yuguang didn't drive them away!
To create strong winds and huge waves, the breeze stirred up by butterflies at the beginning is indispensable.
Zhao Yuguang only complained that not enough people came and the sensation caused was not big enough.
How could they chase people away?
"Manager Li, you're back!"
At the Xuzhou prefectural government office, someone saw old man Li, who had just been sent out by Fu Bisheng, return to the government office and took the initiative to greet him.
Old man Li is the confidant of the prefect, Fu Bisheng, and also the chief steward of the prefect's yamen, holding considerable power.
Naturally, it is worth trying to please the other people in the prefectural government.
"Hmm~~"
However, Old Li, who is usually easy to talk to and friendly to everyone, seemed "cold" this time.
She replied slightly and flashed away quickly.
Although Old Man Li's face was still as calm as ever, anyone who was paying attention could tell from his fast footsteps that he was in a hurry...
"Master, it's bad!
Lord Zhao is coming to the prefectural government office with Commander Huang, Magistrate Wu, and people from the Fu'an Marquisate!"
Old Li walked quickly to Fu Bisheng's study and reported quickly.
"What did you say?
Who?
Come to the prefectural government?
Why? "
It was so confusing that Fu Bisheng had no idea what old man Li was talking about.
“This old Li!
It’s not usually like this~~"
Pay all your life to complain in your heart.
"Master, it is like this!
Lord Zhao has captured Commander Huang...
Lord Zhao believes that there is something else behind this incident...
County Magistrate Wu agreed with Lord Zhao... and wrote a memorial!
But because this matter is serious, they came to see you, Master, and hope that you can go with them..."
This time, Old Man Li grasped the key points and reported in more detail, reporting everything to Fu Bisheng.
"what?
Lord Zhao actually thought that Huang Jun's assassination of Marquis Fu'an was related to Wudang?"
After listening to Old Li's story, Fu Bisheng stood up in horror.
Wu-Tang!
You know, that’s Wudang!
The most prestigious sect in the Ming Dynasty.
Even the Shaolin Temple, which is said to be as famous as Wudang, was inferior to Wudang in absolute strength and influence during the Ming Dynasty.
After all, Shaolin Temple was deeply rooted in both the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty.
Distracted attention.
The Wudang sect only focused on the Ming Dynasty and concentrated its power.
Let’s not talk about the political influence of Wudang Sect as the state religion of the Ming Dynasty.
Let’s just talk about the strength of the Wudang Sect itself.
Under the Wudang Sect's leader and grand elder, there are more than a dozen elders, over a hundred true disciples, thousands of disciples in the sect, plus a series of outer sect lay disciples.
The martial power is the strongest among all the major sects in the martial arts world!
With the strength of Wudang Sect itself, plus its influence in the martial arts world...
Once the Wudang Sect makes up its mind, the entire Ming Dynasty will tremble.
Although major martial arts sects such as the Wudang Sect and large clans such as the aristocratic families have enormous influence and can affect the livelihoods of many families.
But there is one biggest difference between martial arts sects like the Wudang Sect and aristocratic families.
That is, most of the people that the aristocratic families can influence are ordinary people such as farmers and workers.
The people that the Wudang Sect can influence are mostly martial arts experts.
If we also take into account the number of people that these gangsters can influence.
The influence of the Wudang Sect in the Ming Dynasty was greater than that of any other aristocratic family except the royal Zhu family.
The strength is the same!
They are the strongest family in the Ming Dynasty except for the royal family Zhu!
Many people even speculated that the Wudang clan was no less powerful than the royal Zhu clan.
Is Lord Zhao crazy?
He actually suspected the Wudang Clan!
And he made his suspicion known to the public?
You know, in the Ming Dynasty, when big powers were involved, everyone would try to smooth things overtly and negotiate in secret.
After all, if the two sides openly fall out, they will often have to fight hard for the sake of their reputation.
Never give up!
For a big power, if it openly admits defeat to other big powers, it is very likely to shake the confidence of its followers, thus triggering a domino effect.
This is unacceptable to the big powers.
Face means profit.
In this world, there are many examples of great forces being destroyed because of disputes over face.
What’s more, this is the Wudang Clan now!
This force is definitely ranked among the top two in the Ming Dynasty.
Although the Zhao family is a large and powerful family!
But if we were to go head-to-head with the Wudang Clan...
Fu Bisheng really doesn't think highly of the Zhao family!
wrong!
Lord Zhao Yuguang has stood tall in the Ming Dynasty for decades. He is not only a pillar of the clan, but also one of the most capable commanders in battle in the Ming Dynasty!
Such a person would not be a fool!
What is his purpose?
Fu Bisheng began to brainstorm in his mind.
