Longevity begins with a proud smile

Zhuo Lingfeng made up his mind, cupped his hands and said: "Mo Qixia is so righteous, I am Ming Gan Wu Nei!

Then please wait a moment. My husband and I will come as soon as we go! "

Zhao Min shook his head: "I won't go."

Zhuo Lingfeng couldn't help being startled, and Zhao Min sighed: "If I go, it will make things difficult for you." At this point, tears flashed in her eyes.

Zhuo Lingfeng was also heartbroken. If he and King Ruyang were not in agreement and had an argument, Zhao Min would feel so uncomfortable looking at this scene. At that time, she would be the most miserable.

But she said it was embarrassing for herself, and Zhuo Lingfeng was extremely moved.

What he couldn't hate about Zhao Min, a Mongolian, was her devotion to her lover. In his previous life, he was not without envy of Zhang Wuji.

But now it was his turn, and he felt heavy.

Suddenly Zhao Min giggled and said: "We are husband and wife. You are me and I am you. When you go to see your father, what you say and what you do will be the same as me!"

Zhuo Lingfeng nodded and said: "Okay!" The two looked at each other deeply, Zhuo Lingfeng turned around, found a horse, and rode out of the valley.

At this time, the Mongolian soldiers and horses stood in awe, motionless in the wind. At a glance, they looked like thousands of sculptures.

Zhuo Lingfeng rode straight into the formation. Wang Baobao stepped forward and said, "In this world, you can't help yourself. Please forgive me."

Zhuo Lingfeng nodded and said, "Let's go!"

I saw more than a dozen horses galloping out of the Mongolian army formation like the wind. Each of the riders was wearing heavy armor. The first two were holding apricot-yellow flags. The flagpoles were six feet long and as thick as a bowl.

Five feet away from Zhuo Lingfeng, he suddenly reined in his horse and leaned the flagpole on the ground. He looked solemn and said nothing.

The breeze blew the flag, with "King of Ruyang" embroidered in black official script on the left, and "Yuan" in red official script embroidered on the right. The flag was flying and ready to fly through the air.

Many people in the martial arts world saw this kind of ostentation and power, and thought in their hearts: "No wonder everyone is pursuing fame and wealth, it's really eye-catching!"

Eight pairs of sixteen men rode horses, one in two, leaving a narrow path in the middle. One person had a horse on his hip, with a long knife on his waist, and came out with a hand.

He was in his fifties, with a majestic face, and his eyes were shining brightly, even under the blue sky and white sun, it still made people's hearts tremble.

The person who came was none other than King Ruyang of the Great Yuan Dynasty. His face was full of joy and he said with a smile: "Xian son-in-law, don't be offended!"

Zhuo Lingfeng smiled slightly, but did not see him raising his legs to make a gesture. He stood on the ground from his horse and bowed deeply: "My father-in-law saw the edict, how can Zhuo Lingfeng be surprised?"

King Ruyang accepted his salute calmly and said with a laugh: "I didn't tell you to come here to meet me, but I deliberately left Cheng Kun!"

"What are you talking about?" Zhuo Lingfeng said with a smile: "You can't take advantage of all the benefits in the world. You and I have different positions, and we are just showing our own methods. How dare you blame the prince!"

When the King of Ruyang heard that he had previously called his father-in-law, but this time he finally called him the prince, knowing the meaning of putting private affairs first before public affairs, his eyes flashed, he laughed twice, nodded and said: "You can teach me!

It’s really not easy for you to be so open-minded at such a young age, and it’s not in vain that Minmin shows deep affection for you.

The whole world knows about you and Minmin. She is the most beautiful woman in Mongolia. Even the Holy One knows about it. I have to do something after all.

I originally thought that because you were too inexperienced, young and energetic, and that you were a successful person who was making waves and adding fuel to the flames, this group of martial arts people would not honor you, a Mongolian son-in-law, but I still underestimated you! "

Zhuo Lingfeng shook his head and said: "This is not because of how capable my son-in-law is, but because the martial arts heroes have right and wrong intentions. Plus, relying on the honor and reputation of their predecessors, they naturally know who the enemy should be!"

King Ruyang's pupils suddenly shrank, his gaze was like lightning, and he shot at Zhuo Lingfeng. Zhuo Lingfeng faced him directly, his eyes unblinking for a moment.

The King of Ruyang has a majestic appearance, commanding thousands of troops and horses, and has been killed for many years. There are not many people in the world who dare to look at each other, especially when he is on a horse and the opponent is standing in front of him.

Zhuo Lingfeng is handsome and handsome, with a Tsinghua bearing. He doesn't look like a powerful martial artist at all. But at this moment, he is as sharp as a sword, and there is no murderous intent in his eyes. Instead, he is full of calmness and coolness, and contains an endless courage and courage. confidence.

Even if King Ruyang has thousands of troops behind him, he is not afraid. The two looked at each other for a moment, and the light in King Ruyang's eyes dimmed. Zhuo Lingfeng's aura also weakened, and he suddenly looked like a learned man.

King Ruyang nodded, immediately got off his horse and said, "Sit down."

While the two were talking, a servant laid out the carpet, placed a square table on it, and prepared two bags of wine on the table.

Zhuo Lingfeng and King Ruyang sat at the table. Wang Baobao was at his side, and sixteen guards stood in all directions.

King Ruyang picked up a bag of wine and said, "This is our Mongolian mare's kumiss. Try it!"

Zhuo Lingfeng shook his head.

King Ruyang looked displeased and said, "Are you afraid that I will poison you?"

Zhuo Lingfeng said: "My father-in-law is not afraid of hard work and is here in person for the sake of world affairs. I am also the lifeblood of the martial arts world. How dare I act like usual? If I interfere with the world's major affairs, how can I shoulder the responsibility?"

Although he relied on his magical power, he also believed that King Ruyang would not harm his reputation by poisoning him in front of everyone.

But he had already gambled once in Ruyang Prince's Mansion, and this time he didn't want to gamble again.

King Ruyang sighed and said: "You have great martial arts skills, you are also very smart, and you have a majestic spirit that is arrogant in the world. It's just that you don't use all these in the right place!"

Zhuo Lingfeng smiled and said: "Use it in the right place, that is, to serve the Mongols?"

King Ruyang's eyes filled with anger, he frowned and sneered: "Pedantic opinion!

I've seen it a long time ago. You don't want to surrender to Mongolia. Humph, do you think I'm here just for this? To destroy you people? "

Zhuo Lingfeng's heart tightened suddenly, and he heard King Ruyang say again: "Last time I talked to you, I also thought deeply about it. In this world, natural and man-made disasters are happening all at once, and it is inevitable for the Han people to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty.

Although we in Mongolia have strong troops, we have many tribes. Although we were unified by Genghis Khan in the past, they were only suppressed by force and were not convinced internally. Nowadays, the government is corrupt, the Holy One only cares about pleasure, and the government decrees have long been unable to be unified.

Although I am a Taiwei, claiming to be in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, the numbers of the soldiers and horses are different, and they are separated from each other, making it difficult for me to use my fingers like an arm.

Today, disasters are rampant and ordinary people are unable to eat. This has also led to a shortage of food and grass supplies and unstable military morale. "

Having said this, King Ruyang's expression dimmed and he sighed: "Maybe it's time for Mongolia to return to Mobei."

Zhuo Lingfeng said: "I have said this before. If Mongolia retreats now, it can still preserve its vitality. If it is beaten and has to retreat, its vitality will be severely damaged. Not to mention the loss of political power, I am afraid that the Golden Tribe will also lose its glory. Then, they were annexed by other tribes. Have you not seen what happened to the Huns and Turks in the past?"

Since ancient times, nomadic people have relied on the sky for food and lived in pursuit of grass. This also made them eager for the colorful world of the Central Plains, and invaded southward whenever they had the opportunity.

But they have many tribes, and once they lose on the battlefield, or if God is not kind to them, or they suffer from internal and external troubles, chaos will break out.

The famous Xiongnu and Turks disappeared in the long river of history.

In the original trajectory, the Yuan Dynasty was beaten back to Mobei and still lingered, but was soon seized by other tribes. The golden family established by Genghis Khan came to an end. The people in power in Mobei were completely defeated by the Oara, Tatar and other tribes. replaced by the clan.

King Ruyang's brows trembled and he said after a while: "Although my words are good, I am just a prince and cannot represent the Mongols.

What happened between you and Min Min is known to the whole world, and the Holy One has already heard about it.

The purpose of ordering me to come here is to ask the king to purge you and other warriors, so as to show his true intentions and prove my loyalty to the Great Yuan. For this reason, he will not hesitate to let me perform the righteous act of exterminating my relatives!

Moreover, the world of Mongolia was conquered by bows, arrows and scimitars. How could it be justified to surrender it to others? "

Zhuo Lingfeng nodded and said: "Then there's no point in talking more. You and I will each show our abilities and let's see who wins!"

He secretly thought in his heart: "Although there are many people from the north and south of the Yangtze River at this time, it is difficult for the mob to defeat the well-trained elite soldiers of Mongolia!"

Suddenly, Wang Baobao laughed and said, "Brother-in-law, don't be impatient!"

Zhuo Lingfeng glanced at Wang Baobao's face and asked indifferently: "If you want to say anything else, don't mention it."

Wang Baobao laughed dryly and said: "Now that the two armies are facing each other, it is not a good thing for you and me!"

Zhuo Lingfeng's eyes flashed coldly, he looked at Wang Baobao and smiled: "Oh? What's so good about it?"

Seeing the irony in his words, Wang Baobao pondered slightly and said solemnly: "When your two armies are fighting, my father has an explanation to the court, and you also have an explanation to your martial arts comrades.

If the father wins, he will have more room to maneuver in the court and his authority will be even greater.

If you win, the name of your righteousness in killing your relatives and defeating the King of Ruyang will make you unparalleled in prestige among the Han people, and then all the heroes in the world will focus on you. "

Zhuo Lingfeng was silent for a long time, then suddenly sighed: "You hope that I can lead the people and fight for hegemony in the world?"

The eyes of Prince Ruyang and his son flashed, and they exchanged quick glances. Prince Ruyang said: "The trend is irreversible. Since the Han people are rebelling against you and I can't stop it, why can't this power be used by me?

If you can draw your sword and restore your Han family, even if Mongolia is defeated, this is still a good thing for me. "

Zhuo Lingfeng said: "I still know how many pounds I have. If I am talking about charging into the battle to kill the enemy alone with my sword, it is not difficult for me to ask myself.

But when it comes to generals on the battlefield, perhaps little-known figures from the Beggar Clan, Mingjiao, Shaolin and other sects are better than me.

As for fighting for world supremacy, I'm even more bored when it comes to controlling people, so all I want in this life is to fight with a sword! "

"A knight with a sword?" Wang Baobao sneered: "When a man is alive, he should hold a three-foot sword and achieve great achievements! How many knights can you do alone with a sword, even if you don't stop all day long?"

Zhuo Lingfeng said: "You are wrong. A true man stands between heaven and earth. He should cultivate his righteousness and do things openly and aboveboard.

No matter whether he is in government or in opposition, he only needs to be self-restrained, cautious in independence, guard his heart and keep his nature clear.

To restrain oneself with a heart to restrain others, and to tolerate others with a heart to tolerate oneself. Only by looking up to heaven and earth with no shame, can one live up to the title of a dignified husband.

If everyone pursues fame and wealth, wouldn't this world become a fame and fortune fair for those who are obsessed with profit?

You and I both have a good destiny. We may be born with a chance to have a skill that can make us settle down, or we may be born in a noble family and not worry about three meals a day, so we only seek our own glory!

But there are many people at the bottom in this world. They are just busy for three meals a day. Compared with us, they are all pitiful people.

Just because the ridiculous man should achieve great achievements, he has to become a tool for those big shots to manipulate!

In my eyes, Zhuo Lingfeng, this world should not be like this.

If anyone is really capable, he should not rely on others, but rely on himself alone to make an unparalleled contribution to him. I, Zhuo Lingfeng, will be willing to submit to him! No matter what you do, you won't hesitate!

Do you think there is such a person? "

These words were so shocking that they moved King Ruyang, but Wang Baobao was still unconvinced and said: "You said it nicely, but why did you provoke my sister in the first place? Don't you know her identity, or don't you know that there must be someone between Han and Mongolia?" war?

If my sister hadn't fallen in love with you, why would you have spoken so confidently in front of my father and son?

Do you have this qualification?

At this moment, you are talking about unintentional achievements! Don’t you think it’s too late? " ˆ ˆ Zhuo Lingfeng smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect this. "Youyou sighed and said: "I have lived a very contradictory life for the past half of my life.

Master hopes that I can devote myself to cultivating the Tao and isolate myself from the world of mortals. I also want to have no distractions and just follow the path of cultivation.

But after a trip to Jianghu, I fell in love and had to embark on the road of starting a family.

After I got married, because of my status as a wife, I wanted to stay away from the secular world and not care about worldly affairs. I just wanted to care about the mountains and rivers and live a happy life.

But it also showed me that the people were in mourning and there was no tomorrow. I want to be a promising person and participate in the great trend of changing the world, but I am tortured between personal feelings and justice! "

Zhuo Lingfeng thought about his time-travel journey and spoke from the bottom of his heart. He glanced at Prince Ruyang and his son, and said slowly: "Father-in-law, brother-in-law, no matter what kind of confrontation there will be between Han and Mongolia, this battle can be led by you and me. , but it shouldn’t be beaten.

Among all the armies, swords have no eyes. If one of the three of you and I loses, what will happen to Min Min?

As for Yuan Ting, I have already said that Yuan Ting has declined. You can go back to Mobei directly. If we start an uprising, Yuan Ting will definitely not be willing to accept it. It will only deal with us and has absolutely no intention of conquering you. You can rest assured in Mobei. Development, without going into the muddy waters of the Central Plains, can not only save the relationship between you and Minmin, but also retain your own strength. Isn't this something that everyone is happy with? "

King Ruyang's pupils shrank. What kind of person was he? He knew that Zhao Min didn't want to come to the battle to meet his father and daughter. In fact, he just didn't want to see the two of them fighting. You can imagine the pain in her heart.

King Ruyang looked back at Wang Baobao and asked.

Wang Baobao frowned and said: "It's a joke, my sister has ambitions of being a man, and she is as bold as a man.

Her sweetheart is the biggest hero in the world. Now it seems that she is blind because she fell in love with you! "

Zhuo Lingfeng knew that Wang Baobao had great ambitions and was more ruthless towards Zhao Min than King Ruyang, so this incident was probably due to his plan. He immediately said coldly: "You think you are great, you think you are a real hero, a real hero, but in my eyes, you understand nothing and are nothing!

Did you know that over the past thousands of years, the mighty historical tide has turned suddenly many times? For example, Qin Shihuang unified the six countries and ended hundreds of years of wars and disputes. This had such a profound impact that any founding emperor in later generations would aim to unify China.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty established the reputation of the Han family and gave a race the name Han. It has been hundreds of years since the fall of the Han Dynasty, but we still call ourselves Han people. Even if a thousand years pass and several dynasties pass, the Han people will still be there.

Because this is our backbone!

It seems that those who did all this did not spend a long time, but many people have ignored that it took hundreds of years for the Qin and Han Dynasties to build momentum!

This is actually the same as the way of martial arts. The moment the martial arts is activated, even those who are stronger than him cannot directly attack him. "

He suddenly stood up and pointed at the Mongolian military formation: "You have conquered the world with their waving scimitars, but since the Tang and Song Dynasties, we Han people have been bullied by the Turks, Khitan, Dangxiang, Jurchen, and Mongolia for hundreds of years. This Hatred has been buried among us Han people for hundreds of years.

The other ethnic groups are in vain now, but you Mongolia are still here. This blood feud can only be pursued by you. But the Mongolia now is not the time of Temujin and Kublai Khan. The central government is dead, the political orders are not unified, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and the people everywhere Sad.

The so-called Great Yuan Dynasty was already in ruins and riddled with holes, and it would only take a gust of wind to scatter it all over the place.

What's more, the Han people have been gathering momentum for hundreds of years! "

Wang Baobao sneered and said: "Since the defeat of our Yuan Dynasty is certain, isn't it a good thing for you to stand up and lead the people, build achievements, and reshape the world?"

Zhuo Lingfeng said: "Leading people, making achievements, and reshaping the world? You can say these twelve words easily, but do you know how many people on both sides will die just because of this?

You and I are not mediocre people. You should know that for the sake of power, countless conspiracies, betrayals, killings, and wars are constantly being staged on the land of China, which vividly embodies the evil of human nature. How easy is it to lead a group of people?

Building meritorious services and reshaping the world cannot be accomplished in a day. Fighting is never just about military affairs, but also about logistics!

"Thieves pass like a comb, soldiers pass like a grate" is never just a lie. In this process, how many people had to sell their sons and daughters, or even worse, exchange their sons for food? "

"A joke!" Wang Baobao said sternly: "One general has achieved great success, and thousands of bones have withered. Since ancient times, dynasties have changed. How has there been no death?

Whether you sell your sons or daughters, or exchange your sons for food, it is just a matter of rising up against the common people who have no ability. There are so many people, but if you don’t get a batch, what does it matter? "

Zhuo Lingfeng said coldly: "Since they are all dead, why should we kill ordinary people? I, Zhuo Lingfeng, have been a ordinary person all my life, not a noble family!"

Wang Baobao sneered and said: "Without you, wouldn't there be this fight between Han and Meng?

Could it be that no one has come forward to make contributions and show off his ambitions? "

Zhuo Lingfeng said: "It is natural for the masses to rise up, elect leaders, overthrow tyranny, and shed blood and sacrifice, but I, Zhuo Lingfeng, will never be willing to be a knife in my hand for personal gain!

Besides, you only see achievements, why can’t you see sins?

Among the promising emperors of the past dynasties, such as Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han, which one was not great enough?

But none of them have experienced sufferings that ordinary people have never experienced before, before and after life.

The first emperor of Qin had no heirs, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty lost his son in his later years. Have you ever thought that this is actually justice from God!

How many people have died because of your ambition, and there is no human power. But God, God, you have enjoyed the honor like a roaring mountain and a tsunami. Is it true that there will be no disasters? "

King Ruyang and Wang Baobao couldn't help but be startled. They knew that Zhuo Lingfeng only talked about Emperor Qin and Han Wu, but Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu, Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty also all lost their sons and relatives.

Even Genghis Khan of this dynasty was the same. His eldest son Jochi was not of his blood at all. The subsequent power struggle also caused his favorite son Tore to die early.

As for Kublai Khan, he also suffered from unspeakable pain.

Zhuo Lingfeng sighed quietly: "My father-in-law is the marshal of the Yuan Dynasty's army. I married Minmin, and we are a family.

The uncle was ambitious and made bets on both sides.

If I become the leader of the Han family, even if you and I fight until mountains of corpses are piled up, rivers of blood flow, and countless people are in dire straits, even if you are defeated, you will still retain your vitality. But if I am trapped by love, I will plunge the Han family into a great crisis. Your calculations are really loud! "

Wang Baobao said coldly: "What do you mean, my father and I are wholeheartedly supporting you to ascend to the throne, is it all for my consideration?"

Zhuo Lingfeng held his head up proudly and ignored him, acting as if it was natural.

Wang Baobao said coldly: "Do you think you, the mob, can withstand the attack of my Mongolian cavalry?"

Zhuo Lingfeng glanced at Wang Baobao and said calmly: "Some things can only be known after trying them!"

His voice was extremely cold, and the two of them looked directly at each other, as if sparks were jumping out.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and King Ruyang suddenly burst into laughter, "Xian son-in-law!" King Ru Yang said, "I know that you have a kind heart, but I don't know the current situation. What do you think of this good son-in-law?" He looked up and said, It means a lot of scrutiny.

Zhuo Lingfeng said: "I am here just to fulfill my husband-in-law's wishes, and also to ask for help from my fellow Jianghu colleagues. Can you withdraw your troops and avoid this bloody disaster?"

King Ruyang stood up slowly and said: "Your words are sincere, and I am also very moved. If I can't be your enemy, wouldn't it be my deepest wish? Unfortunately, everyone has no choice but to do something. The so-called 'not to do something,' Something must be done'!"

As he spoke, he faced the military formation and said proudly: "Look at them, they are all good men, but if they really retreat to Mobei, they will only be able to keep company with cattle and sheep, and follow the wind and sand. If God is angry, neither humans nor animals will be able to survive." Rely on.

But you Han people guard this colorful world and enjoy all the glory, wealth and descendants. Is this fair to me, Mongolia? "

Zhuo Lingfeng sighed and said angrily: "Father-in-law, there is no absolute fairness in this world. But between you and me, we have to fight each other with swords. Is there no other choice?"

"Choice?" King Ruyang said with a smile: "People seem to have many choices in this life, but often they find out when things are about to happen that these options are extremely limited, especially for people in high positions. Unless they die and their clan is destroyed, they have to keep going. Go forward.

The most famous thieves among you Han people, Cao Cao, Sima Yi, and Wang Mang, do you think they wanted to usurp the world from the beginning? "

Zhuo Lingfeng was silent for a moment and said: "No, these people have written a heavy stroke in the history, but they don't have so many long-term plans, especially to single-handedly change the decline of the dynasty, let alone years of planning . But due to current events, for various reasons, he stood at the cusp of history, and he had to fly even if he didn't want to!"

When he said these words, he seemed to see the shadow of these celebrities. In the eyes of the world, they were all ambitious ambitions usurping the throne. But he felt the sadness and helplessness in their hearts.

Cao Cao's original target was just the Han Dynasty's general who conquered the west, and Sima Yi was used as a chamber pot by generations of the Cao family.

But as history progresses, they have all reached that point.

There is only progress, no retreat.

If you advance, you may have a chance of survival, but if you retreat, you will die!

Having said this, Zhuo Lingfeng also deeply understood the connotation of "people are in the world and can't help themselves".

After all, with the abilities of Cao Cao and Sima Yi, there were things they had to do. How could he, Zhuo Lingfeng, do anything else?

Throughout life, no matter how great your abilities and fortunes are, you cannot escape the mercy of the God of fate.

No one is immune!

"Did you see it?"

The King of Ruyang looked at Wang Baobao and said: "You, my brother-in-law, are far more knowledgeable than a fool, but more like a learned man.

The reason why he is standing here now, talking sincerely to you and me, is not that he is afraid, nor does he not understand, it is just because Min Min cannot be let down in his heart, and he does not want her to be sad! "

"Father sees further than I do!"

Wang Baobao sighed faintly: "It's just that I don't understand. My brother-in-law is the best in the world in martial arts, and as the leader of the Beggar Clan, I have this great opportunity today to make achievements and dominate the world. What's wrong with that? Why bother thinking about those illusory things!

If you miss this opportunity to dominate the world today, you will never get it again! "

"Brother!" Zhuo Lingfeng shook his head: "You are wrong, what I said is not illusory!

Anyone who can dominate the world and found the country has a heavy historical mission, which makes them seem to have destiny.

For example, Qin Shihuang, Han Gaozu, Genghis Khan, Kublai Khan, etc. Even if there are any founding emperors in later generations, I can be sure that they will be the same and have to endure the great tragedy of life when their loved ones die and are unable to save them.

On the road to personal success, one will also fall into a huge life and death crisis. For ordinary people, this is a doomed situation.

But they were able to turn danger into safety. If you think about it carefully, you can only sum it up with the sentence "Destiny is in your hands, and the king will never die"!

And their success depends on the people of the world. You and I regard it as a transaction to achieve our personal ambitions.

If your intention is wrong, your behavior cannot deceive people for a long time, and naturally there is no possibility of success!

For this reason, the harder an individual strives, the more his sins will increase and there will be no benefit.

Prosperity, people suffer; death, people suffer.

If you don't understand this truth, even if you have great abilities, you can only become a general, but you won't be able to become the king you long for! "(End of chapter)
