Chapter 17 Assessment Conditions
Deep in the woods, the old Taoist priest and Zhang Jun stood facing each other two meters apart.

The old Taoist said indifferently: "The world is divided into yin and yang, yin and yang are transformed into five forms, cathode is transformed into yang, anode is transformed into yin, yin and yang complement each other, qi sinks into the dantian, embraces the essence and keeps one,..."

"Wu Gang Wu Ji, Tai Gang Tai Chi, I will teach you a set of Tai Chi, if you practice it every day when yin and yang alternate, you can achieve longevity."

As the old Taoist said, he raised his hand and started Taijiquan, his strokes were extremely slow, and Zhang Jun on the side also imitated it.

After one round of Taijiquan, Zhang Jun felt his body relaxed a lot, and the qi and blood stagnated in his chest were also unblocked.

Zhang Jun let out a long breath of foul air. At this time, he admired the old Taoist priest even more.

"Xianchang!"

Zhang Jun said to the old Taoist priest with a faint smile: "May I accept you as an apprentice and learn your longevity technique?"

The old Taoist twitched, shook his head and said, "Your aptitude is good, but unfortunately you are too old."

Zhang Jun still did not give up and said: "The words of the elder fairy are wrong. Jiang Ziya is 60 years old and he is still worshiping under the saint's sect. The disciple is only [-] this year. Besides, he thinks that his qualifications are not inferior to him. Why not?"

The old Taoist stroked his beard and sighed: "That's fine, but you need to pass the examination to enter our school. If you pass the examination, the poor Taoist can make an exception and accept you as a disciple."

"Please come up with a question!" Zhang Jun said confidently.

The old Taoist murmured: "The assessment of the poor Taoist is not difficult, as long as you complete the two things just mentioned, the poor Taoist will accept you as an entry."

Hearing this, Zhang Jun was overjoyed immediately, and said, "I would like to obey the order of the immortal!"

The old Taoist smiled "haha", walked out of the woods, and said as he walked, "Remember, from now on, your words and deeds are within the perception of the poor Taoist. Once the poor Taoist is not satisfied, you will be hopeless for life." Learn to live forever."

As soon as the old Taoist finished speaking, he disappeared. Zhang Jun hurriedly chased after him, but he didn't see the old Taoist until he came out of the woods to join the soldiers, and even the little Taoist boy disappeared.

"Have you ever met the fairy elder?"

Zhang Jun asked the soldiers.

The guard hurriedly replied: "My lord, we have never seen the fairy elder!"

Zhang Jun said to himself: "You really are a god-man, the dragon sees the head but does not see the end!"

"My lord, how do you deal with these people?"

The guard pointed to the eight trembling bearers and asked.

Zhang Jun shook his head and said, "Forget it, they also made an unintentional mistake. Give them the travel expenses and let them go home."

"Thank you sir!"

The eight bearers hurriedly expressed their thanks as if they had been pardoned, took the money from the guards, and left quickly.

"Come on, bring the old man's horse!"

Hearing that Zhang Jun wanted to ride a horse, the guards did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly brought a tall maroon horse.

Zhang Jun stroked the horse's head and said: "Old man, I haven't ridden you for some years, let's go on the road together today!"

As Zhang Jun said, he got on his horse, and with a wave of his whip, the bay red horse let out an angry roar and galloped forward.

The soldiers behind him were shocked, and hurriedly mounted their horses and gave chase.

Zhang Jun led the people away, and two figures jumped down from the tree. They were the old Taoist priest and the little Taoist boy who had already left.

"Second uncle, who was that just now?"

Little Daoist asked the old Taoist.

The old Taoist looked at the direction where Zhang Jun and the others were leaving, took off his Taoist robe, took off his bun, and tore off his beard, revealing a young, slightly immature face. It was Yang Chengye, and the little Taoist boy was Shen Fu.

After listening to Shen Fu's questioning, Yang Chengye recalled the evaluation of Zhang Jun in history.

Zhang Jun, courtesy name Boying, an adult in Fengxiang Mansion, a famous general in the early Southern Song Dynasty, together with Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and Liu Guangshi, was called the "Four Generals of Zhongxing" in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhang Jun was an archer when he was 16 years old. He participated in the battle against Xixia and suppressed peasant uprisings in Shandong and Hebei during the Song Huizong period.

Zhao Gou, king of Kang, served as the Marshal of the Army and Horses, and he led his troops to follow him. After Gaozong Zhao Gou came to the throne, he appointed Zhang Jun as the commander of the former army of the imperial camp. incident.

During the Shaoxing period, he suppressed the peasant uprising and the rebel general Li Cheng, and prevented the puppet Qi Liu Yu and the Jin army from invading south.

Zhang Jun, Yue Fei, and Han Shizhong are collectively called the Three Generals, and their troops are called Zhang Jiajun.

Later, he first handed over his military power by himself, and at the same time, he was dismissed as a privy envoy, made Qinghe County King, and participated in promoting Yue Fei's unjust imprisonment.

Zhang Jun was greedy for money, and wanted to annex the land. The annual rent was 60 hu. one.

If there is a winner in "The Shame of Jingkang", the biggest winner is none other than Zhang Jun.

Since Emperors Hui and Qin became captives of the Jin people in humiliation, they were the first to realize that the Northern Song Dynasty was over, and the first to propose that Zhao Gou, king of Kangkang, be emperor.

In the second year of Jingkang, the Jin army broke through Bianjing, took away the Hui and Qin emperors, and the Northern Song Dynasty fell.

With his keen political insight, Zhang Jun resolutely supported Zhao Gou: "The king is the emperor's brother, and the hearts of the people belong to him. In today's world, if you don't take the position early, you can't be respected."

From then on, Zhang Jun became the confidant of Zhao Gou Group under the command of the former army of the imperial camp.

Zhang Jun galloped along the Jianghuai River and pacified Huaining, and the armed separatist forces in Zhenjiang, Hangzhou, Lanxi, Xiuzhou and other places opened up a place for the Southern Song court to maneuver.

In the autumn of the same year, based on his own analysis of the situation and strength, Zhang Jun proposed a strategy for crossing to the south: "Now that the enemy is expanding, it is advisable to cross to the south, relying on the river as a danger, training military affairs, reassuring people's hearts, waiting for the country's situation to be settled, and it is not too late to make a big move. "

Soon Jin soldiers went south, Zhao Gou arrived in Lin'an, and the Pian'an pattern was formed.

In April of the 11th year of Shaoxing, Emperor Gaozong promoted Zhang Jun and Han Shizhong as privy envoys and Yue Fei as privy envoys in the name of appreciating Zhegao's achievements.

Zhang Jun knew that Gaozong and Qin Hui wanted to take over the military power, so he first asked to accept the military power of Xuanfu Division.

Zhang Jun assisted Qin Hui to implement the policy of begging for peace, and followed Qin Hui to fabricate perjury evidence, which led to Yue Fei's unjust imprisonment.

Zhang Jun died, and Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou went to condolences: "If I am not Qing, whoever advocates righteousness will be the first; if Qing abandons me, all previous achievements will be wasted; Qing's remarks are prudent, and he deeply understands the enemy's feelings; I also heard that there are tens of thousands of strong men, and this is how to serve the country. , What do I worry about? The ministers say that I treat you very well, and he looks up to his body and cares for him, and he thinks and encourages you."

In the first half of his life, Zhang Jun fought in the South and the North, suppressing peasant uprisings, and made great contributions to the Southern Song Dynasty. He became a county king, and was posthumously named a prince after his death.

But in the second half of his life, he became corrupt and worked hand in hand with Qin Hui, which contributed to Yue Fei's unjust imprisonment and became a sinner in history.

Thinking of this, Yang Chengye said to Shen Fu: "San'er, do you think that person is a good person or a bad person?"

Shen Fu blinked his eyes twice, and said: "That old man wants to kill people every now and then, it's really hateful, and there's a strong smell of blood on his body, San'er doesn't like him!"

As the saying goes, children speak without restraint, and often only children who are ignorant of the world can see the essence of things clearly.

Yang Chengye nodded and said: "If this person can maintain his true heart and not be greedy or corrupt, he will surely support the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty will not be destroyed by Mongolia. It's a pity!"

Shen Fu looked at Yang Chengye curiously, and asked, "Second Uncle, what are you talking about?"

 This book has been signed, and it will not be updated, let alone eunuchs. I hope everyone will vote for it and collect it by the way.

  Brahma takes you into a different world of martial arts!
