Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 225 Exposure, soldiers surround Taifu's mansion.

Fang Dongbai came to Butterfly Valley with the emperor's imperial decree, asking Taifu Qin Zhiyong to return to Dadu immediately.

Hu Qingniu finally knew that the young man named Qin Zhiyong in front of him was really the Imperial Tutor.During these days with Qin Zhiyong, Hu Qingniu felt that Qin Zhiyong didn't seem like a person who covets glory and wealth, but why did he want to be the court's Taifu?

Qin Zhiyong received the imperial decree, without kneeling down, he said calmly: "The emperor asked me to go back to Dadu, did you say why?"

Fang Dongbai said: "The villain doesn't know."

When I came to Butterfly Valley, I had to leave again before the medicine I needed was prepared.Qin Zhiyong said: "Well, I'll go back to Dadu early tomorrow morning."

…………

At night, Qin Zhiyong cooked a table of delicious dishes and invited Hu Qingniu to drink.

After Hu Qingniu sat down, he took a bite of the food and said, "I didn't expect that the famous court official Qin Zhiyong was really you. Who would have thought that you, Qin Zhiyong, would be so young."

Qin Zhiyong sighed, and said, "Young? I have reached the age of forty, and I am no longer young. To be the imperial tutor is not my wish, but fate. Therefore, there is no need for Dr. Hu to have any resistance to Qin."

Hu Qingniu said: "Master Taifu has high martial arts skills, profound medical skills, and an extremely human minister. How dare the little old man disrespect Master Taifu?"

Qin Zhiyong said: "Look, when you say this, you have a feeling of resistance. Emperor Yuan asked me to go back to Dadu this time, I'm afraid there will be no good things. But Qin, as a grand tutor, can't resist the order and disrespect. I will Let Lingshuang stay, her martial arts and swordsmanship is good, if Mr. Hu is in any danger, you can let her take action. Zhang Wuji is indeed a good embryo who practices martial arts and medicine, and I ask Mr. Hu to teach him carefully. I think Mr. Hu must also I am very looking forward to where Zhang Wuji can grow in the future?"

Hu Qingniu said: "How does that girl Lingshuang's martial arts compare with the Dharma King of Mingjiao?"

Hu Qingniu was afraid of Granny Jinhua, for fear that she would come to cause trouble for him.And Granny Jinhua is the Zishan Dragon King of the Ming Cult.

Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "There is no comparison, who knows? But one thing is certain, there is no problem with Lingshuang protecting Mr. Hu's safety."

Hu Qingniu asked: "Didn't Master Taifu say to prepare medicinal materials? Are you planning to give up?"

Qin Zhiyong said: "Of course I won't give up. What Qin decides to do, I won't give up easily. I already know the medicinal materials that grow in Butterfly Valley. When I return to Dadu, I can study it slowly."

the next morning.

Qin Zhiyong left Butterfly Valley with Lingshuang and Zhang Wuji seeing him off.Every step Qin Zhiyong took was a distance of ten feet, and soon disappeared at the end of the path.

After Qin Zhiyong left, Lingshuang really calmed down.She has a feeling that it won't take long for her to find the "Tao" in her heart and reach the state of concentration.

…………

Qin Zhiyong returned to Taifu's residence in Dadu.

Qiuyue was surprised and said: "Sir, you came back so soon. Where is Lingshuang?"

Qin Zhiyong said: "I came back first after receiving the imperial decree. Lingshuang is still at the doctor Hu's place. It is clean and suitable for Lingshuang's current practice. Qiuyue, boil some hot water for me. I will take a bath and change clothes first. Also, put I found my official uniform, I will go to the palace to see the emperor later."

Qiuyue nodded and said, "Okay."

After bathing and changing clothes, he changed into his official uniform. Before Qin Zhiyong went out, the housekeeper came to report in a hurry: "Master Taifu, it's not good. Many soldiers came outside and surrounded the Taifu's mansion."

Qiuyue's expression changed.

Qin Zhiyong looked calmly and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Let's go out and have a look."

Qin Zhiyong led Qiuyue and the butler out of the gate of Taifu's mansion, and saw King Ruyang riding on a horse in military uniform.

Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "My lord, what do you mean?"

King Ruyang stared at Qin Zhiyong, and said: "Mr. Qin, the emperor has issued an order saying that you are plotting rebellion, and this king has been ordered to come and arrest you."

Qin Zhiyong said: "I want to see the emperor."

King Ruyang said: "The emperor is in the Buddhist hall of the national teacher at the moment. The emperor will not see you. Mr. Qin, tell me, did you really commit rebellion? If you were wronged, I will The king can help you intercede with the emperor."

Several masters of the palace stood beside King Ruyang.Cheng Kun's eyes were full of pride.Today's situation of soldiers besieging Taifu's mansion was caused by him alone.

Cheng Kun accepted a disciple named Chen Youliang.He asked Chen Youliang to undercover the beggar gang, inquire about the news of the world, and investigate Qin Zhiyong, which was the most important thing.

People leave traces, geese leave their voices.

As long as something has been done, no matter how clean it is, there will always be some traces.

The Beggar Gang is no longer the largest gang in the world, but the channels and foundations for inquiring about news are still there.After ten years of secret investigation, Chen Youliang finally found out the relationship between Qin Zhiyong, Liu Bowen, Zhu Yuanzhang and others.

Cheng Kun was ecstatic when he received Chen Youliang's secret letter.Knowing that his chance to move to Qin Zhiyong has come.

Cheng Kun didn't tell King Ruyang the matter, but directly reported it to the emperor and the national teacher.

Qin Zhiyong shook his head and said, "There is no need to beg for mercy. Once some misunderstandings arise, they cannot be explained clearly. Even if they can be explained clearly, it is useless without a foundation of trust."

King Ruyang looked serious, and said, "Mr. Qin, could it be that you really did something to rebel?"

Qin Zhiyong said calmly: "I said no, would you believe me, my lord?"

King Ruyang said loudly: "As long as Mr. Qin says that there is no rebellion, this king will believe it!"

Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "Unfortunately, it's useless for you to believe me. This is the end of the matter, and most of the time I can't stay any longer. I can't be the imperial tutor anymore either. My lord, for the sake of our acquaintance, call Your troops get out of the way and let me go."

Qin Zhiyong took off his official uniform and handed it over to the housekeeper.

The butler lowered his head, took the official uniform, and said, "Master Taifu, do you really want to resign?"

Qin Zhiyong nodded and said: "It's not very interesting to be the Taifu of the Yuan Dynasty. During the years of being an official, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never come to the mansion to listen to a class given by Qin. I also did not enter the palace to give lectures to the Prince. It is Qin's negligence." ..."

Sudden.

The butler raised his head, with an astonishing aura erupting from his body.He stared at Qin Zhiyong with very sinister eyes.

A dagger radiating cold light slipped out of the butler's sleeve.

The short sword is sharp and sharp.The distance between the two was less than two feet, and the butler's surprise attack on Qin Zhiyong was beyond everyone's expectations, even Qiuyue next to him didn't react.

The butler's martial arts is at the level of a peerless master, half a notch better than Qiuyue.

Unfortunately, the target of his surprise attack was Qin Zhiyong.

Qin Zhiyong stood still and let the dagger stab him.

Ding!
When the dagger reached three inches in front of Qin Zhiyong, it could no longer penetrate, as if blocked by an invisible force.Qin Zhiyong's protective energy was even more astonishing than his previous defensive power.

The housekeeper's stern expression froze all of a sudden.

If you miss a hit, you immediately retreat.

The butler was more than ten meters away from Qin Zhiyong in an instant, he was a qualified assassin.

Qiuyue pulled out the knife and slashed at the housekeeper: "Old man, how dare you assassinate Mr. You want to die!"

The housekeeper turned slightly to avoid the sharp knife aura.The knife gas left a long knife mark on the ground.

The housekeeper sneered and said, "This old man is a member of the imperial court. Qin Zhiyong conspired to rebel, so what's wrong with this old man assassinating him? It's just hateful, Qin Zhiyong's cultivation is too advanced to be assassinated by an ordinary man like me. Qiuyue, you and Lingshuang Good luck, I can get Qin Zhiyong's personal guidance. I just learned some of Qin Zhiyong's cultivation methods secretly, and I have today's cultivation base."

The housekeeper's work in the Taifu's mansion is like some monsters and mountain spirits living in the dojo of Bodhisattva Buddha. After a long time, they are influenced and know how to practice, and they have cultivated themselves without knowing it.

Taifu's Mansion is equivalent to Qin Zhiyong's dojo.

The knowledge and practice that Qin Zhiyong taught Qiuyue and Lingshuang are all good things.The housekeeper felt that if he could get Qin Zhiyong's personal guidance, his current cultivation base and realm would definitely be higher.

Qin Zhiyong said to the housekeeper: "I knew who sent you when you first entered the Taifu's mansion. It's only because you work hard and keep things in the mansion in order that I have allowed you until now. You are very Clearly, with your cultivation, it is impossible to assassinate me."

The housekeeper said: "A certain family is receiving the salary of the imperial court, so of course they have to be loyal to the imperial court. Even if you can't kill Qin Zhiyong, this old man will assassinate you. Just treat me like an old fool."

Qin Zhiyong laughed: "Housekeeper, you are not stupid at all, on the contrary, you are very smart. You are old and want to make a future for your son. It's just that your son is a dude. He can't learn literature, can't practice martial arts, has low ability, and is a waste Assassinating Qin is undoubtedly the best opportunity to show loyalty to the emperor. Even if you die in Qin's hands, your son will be rewarded by the court at that time, and you will be regarded as a well-deserved death."

Qiuyue stared at the housekeeper, and said with a sneer, "Old man, you are so scheming, you even used your own old life to pave the way for your son's future."

The butler said coldly: "Qiuyue, if you hadn't met Qin Zhiyong, how would you be where you are today? Not everyone is Qin Zhiyong, who has profound knowledge and unfathomable martial arts skills, and can be a grand tutor just after arriving in the capital. The old man is just an ordinary person, and it is almost impossible to get the appreciation of the court. In order to gain the appreciation of the court, the old man has no choice but to use any means. Qin Zhiyong, your cultivation level is unmatched, but now the Taifu’s mansion is surrounded by the imperial army, even if you You are a land god, how many people can you resist? Once your true energy is exhausted, you will still die."

Qin Zhiyong said: "Two fists are no match for four hands. Ants can also kill an elephant. There are many people, which is indeed an advantage. Then Qin will give it a try today to see if he can get away from the army. Butler, Qin will give you A chance to leave intact, as long as you can still take Qiuyue's knife."

Qin Zhiyong slapped Qiuyue on the shoulder.

Qiuyue suddenly felt that her spiritual awareness had been raised several levels, and her sword skills had improved again.

Clang!
The knife flashed.

The speed of Qiuyue's knife was so fast that the housekeeper didn't even see how she did it.

It was too late for the butler to dodge the knife light's attack.He only felt that his right arm was cold, and the whole arm lost consciousness.

His right arm was cut off by the light of the knife.

Qiuyue came back to her senses, feeling a little out of strength, and said: "The light of the knife just now, is it the light of the knife?"

With a wave of King Ruyang's hand, the surrounding army raised their spears with a "shua" sound, aiming at Qin Zhiyong and Qiuyue.

The arrows of thousands of archers also aimed at Qin Zhiyong.

King Ruyang said in a loud voice: "Qin Zhiyong, just capture him with nothing. Otherwise, don't blame this king for being rude. This king knows that your cultivation is extraordinary and holy, but even so, even if this king dies with you, I will punish you on the spot .”

Qin Zhiyong walked towards King Ruyang step by step with Qiuyue.

Facing the army, Qin Zhiyong was fearless.

Standing on the attic of the Ruyang Palace, Zhao Min looked at Qin Zhiyong in shock: "It turns out that everything my father said is true. Mr. Qin really has extraordinary cultivation. He can ignore the threat of the army. People, how come?" Could it be so powerful?"
