Chapter 10: Let go
As soon as the words of withdrawal came out. The disciples of the Taishan faction responded in unison. The earthquake echoed all over the temple.
Look at me. I'll look at you. I can't believe it.
Jia Jiucheng said: "There are all kinds of shortcomings in the alliance now. In fact, there are also other gangs on the rivers and lakes. The so-called justice is up to the private door. Justice is a matter of private affairs. A lot of things. Put it forward, and everyone will contribute ideas together. Correcting deviations is. Our five factions have been in the alliance for more than 100 years. Generations of people have worked together. Only then can we have today's majestic spectacle. What you will do is not to be said lightly. The virtuous nephew should also think carefully and think again. ”
Cao Zhengwu said coldly: "What do you think." Justice is thought of. You Huashan faction is not blocked. Talent emerges. Every twenty or thirty years, someone can settle in the Sword Cultivation Hall. Today's southern sword Wei Xiaoguang is your uncle. If you Huashan faction does not produce talents. That's why there is really no heavenly reason. What do I have in the Taishan faction. The child was angry and beaten, but he could only endure it. How can I compare with you? ”
The rules of the Hundred Swords Alliance: The ten great swords who studied in the Sword Cultivation Hall. Except for the president who presides over general affairs. The remaining nine swords are to be hidden from their original names. Replace it with nine days. It is intended to keep it out of the rivers and lakes. Focus on swordsmanship. It is also to prevent the proximity faction from benefiting from it. Nine days. The south is "hot days". Therefore, people in the alliance usually wait. They all call the Southern Great Sword Wei Xiaoguang "Wei Yantian" or "Yantian Sword". Now Cao Zhengwu calls his original name in public. Break the rules of the league. There is no mercy in the words. Obviously, the heart of the break has been strengthened.
Right now. I saw Bai Shiying take a step forward. He hugged his fist and arched his hand on the platform of Sumeru: "The five factions have always been in unison. Loss and common prosperity. I, the Songshan faction, are willing to advance and retreat together with the Taishan faction. Join hands in the alliance. Xu Jiansan also said: "What Senior Brother Bai said is true. Martial arts people are self-defeating. It is difficult to seek common ground if the Tao is not in harmony. Alliance Leader. The Hengshan faction has been blessed with many photos over the years. Thank you all for that. May your league have a bright future in the future. Weather updates. ”
Jia Jiucheng listened to him. It's about to quit the alliance. I was stunned for a moment. Stammering tongue around. I was at a loss. The crowd was in an uproar.
Master Zheng smiled slightly: "Okay." The two of them are the heads of the same faction. Decide on this big thing. I think it's already ripe. Now that the intention has been decided. The Hundred Swords Alliance is not retained. May the two be the same as Guan Xian's nephew. can govern their sect properly. Flourish. The Hundred Swords Alliance will always be your friend. ”
The two factions of Hengshan and Songshan have also been established for hundreds of years. The inheritance lasts for a long time, and there are tens of thousands of disciples. The students scattered all over the country don't count. Just the disciples and grandchildren who are making up on the mountain. There were as many as three or four thousand people in each faction. All three factions withdrew at the same time. It's really the top priority that shocks the martial arts. The group of heroes saw that Zheng Mengzhu handled it so lightly. I couldn't help but be surprised.
Bai and Xu glanced at each other. Bow your hand upward: "Thank you Zheng Meng's master." ”
Ying Hongying pulled her son. He bowed his hand to the hill and said, "Today, the Venerable Master is here to drive the law." Preside over righteousness. Everything is safe. Smooth sailing. The Venerable Master did not speak. Virtue is self-respecting. It's really Buddha's light everywhere. Etiquette is harmonious. The surviving man carries his young son. Represents the clumsy husband under the nine springs. and the Taishan faction and so on. I would like to thank the Venerable Master for his great kindness. ”
The people on the hill sighed: "Alas. It is all sentient beings who have transformed the Buddha. Where is the Buddha who has transformed sentient beings. Ying Heroine said it. The old man is ashamed. ”
Master Zheng understood that he was talking to himself. signaled Ying Hongying to deliberately put the cart before the horse. The Shaolin faction was not involved in their planning. As soon as this sentence came out. His Shaolin faction will not offend both. At that moment, he said to Guan Yiyan: "Respect the father in the day." There are many contacts with the swords in the alliance. The two of us are brothers. Very affectionate. He has also been on the sword many times. Nothing to talk about. After learning the news of my brother's death. Zheng was very sad. However, there are too many things in the alliance. He was unable to go to Mount Tai to see him off in person. But I don't want to do this kind of contrarian thing. Now Jiang Zhaoxian is nowhere to be found. The virtuous nephew forgave him. However, our alliance will be impartially pursued to the end. This is an explanation to the head of the family. It is also an explanation to the heroes of the world. This 'Aosan' sword serves as physical evidence. For the time being, it will be kept by our alliance. After the matter is clarified and dealt with in the future. Return to Mount Tai from Angelica. ”
Guan Yiyan said: "Jiang Zhaoxi is a swordsman under your alliance. How to track down and deal with things. It's inconvenient for me to ask. Nor do I care. The little nephew's injuries have not healed. I can't bear the wind and cold here for a long time. Alliance Leader. The Venerable Master. Let's leave it at that. "Let's lie down on the stretcher. Supported by Ying Hongying and the second elder. Led the disciples of Mount Tai to go straight to the temple gate. Xu Jiansan and Bai Shiying also gave farewell gifts. He brought the disciples of Hengshan and Songshan to follow him. The heroes dodged out of the way. Jing Wenzhong looked at the leader of Zheng Meng from afar. See him calm as usual. There is no intention to stop it. He also made a gesture. The swords are divided into two points. watched Guan Yiyan and his gang walk in front of him. Walk away.
Xia Zenghui also said goodbye to the people on the hill. Lead the disciples of Diancang to leave the temple. The heroes have gone through this. They all have a great opinion on the Hundred Swords Alliance. Seeing that Xia Zenghui was also gone. There was a lot of coaxing and shouting. Disperse most of them. It doesn't matter if there are two Tai Chi Bagua doors. Only the disciples of the Huashan Sect stood in the empty courtyard. Look left and right. It's embarrassing. Jia Jiucheng has a horse's face. He waved his hand upwards and said, "Alliance leader." His subordinates were invited to Beijing. It was just a witness. Their withdrawal from the alliance. The subordinates are really ......" Zheng Mengzhu smiled: "I know everything in my heart. We don't talk to each other as a family. Brother Jia doesn't have to be worried. Jia Jiucheng said: "Yes." Zheng Meng said: "Director Jing." The Huashan faction is tired from afar. L'you make a good arrangement for them. I still have some things to discuss with the Venerable Master. Wait until it's over. Let's take a good look at Brother Jia. Jia Jiucheng said: "Thank you Alliance Leader." "Say goodbye. He took his disciples with Jing Wenchong and the others.
At this time, the day passed by mid-heaven. It's the time when the card is not played. The leader of the Zheng League apologized to the people on the hill and said, "For the matter of my alliance. It is so tiring that people suffer from the wind and cold here for half a day. Zheng Zhi was uneasy in his heart. The man on the hill smiled: "Amitabha." The leader of the alliance is out of sight. The Master of Koike led everyone to the Zenlin Tea House to offer fragrant tea. Chang Sihao saw that the leader of the Zheng League was still talking and laughing. It seems that the withdrawal from the alliance has no effect on him. In my heart is admiration. Puzzled again. After tea, the people of Koike arranged vegetarian meals for hospitality. Qin Juexiang smiled and said, "Venerable Master." Uncle Zheng. The little nephew is a wine bag and a rice bag. You can't do without meat. It's fasting. Hey. It's a bit unaccustomed to eating. But I have to accompany less. ”
Lord Zheng Meng smiled: "It's good for the virtuous nephew to take the first step. I'll go back and drink your wine. ”
"I didn't say anything. Qin Juexiang turned his head again. Chong Shi and Huo Qiuhai said: "Two good friends have to appreciate their faces." Let's do it together. Shi and Huo understood in their hearts. What is the status of the Hundred Swords Alliance and the Shaolin faction in the martial arts. These two big family members talked about together. A lot of inconvenience for outsiders to listen. Qin Juexiang has this consciousness. Then the steps were handed over. There is no reason why I don't answer. Laugh out loud at the moment. Farewell to the man on the hill. Qin Juexiang beckoned: "Master Hou." You first please. ”
Chang Sihao was very uncomfortable when he heard him call himself "Master Hou". Look at this style. Most of his performances are for outsiders. It's hard to say anything.
The group said goodbye and came out. Qin Juexiang first went to the Nanzhen Fusi Yamen to receive the robe, the seal and the bounty. Colleagues and officials congratulated one after another. Qin Juexiang was generous. Large and small red envelopes are distributed up and down. And one gift is a double portion. One of them is a reward for Chang Sihao, the marquis. There was no one in the house who did not rejoice. The two of them socialized for more than half an hour. Qin Juexiang invited many superiors and subordinates to come out. Horseback riding on horseback. The sedan on the sedan car. Mighty and straight to Jingdong Yunhua Building.
There were already twenty or so men waiting in line on the street. See you from afar. Hurriedly greeted him. The leader said, "Ouch, my big boss." You're here. The seats are already ready. Just waiting for you. "Wave back. The guys all straightened their backs. Said loudly: "Congratulations to the big owner." The big boss made miraculous achievements. Awarded by the Emperor. It will rise even higher in the near future. Both promotions. and became rich again. Good luck rolls in. ”
Qin Juexiang laughed on the horse: "Who made this up." It's smooth. The leader rubbed his hands and grinned and smiled: "Go back to the big boss." It's the clumsy pen of the villain. Qin Juexiang smiled and said, "It's just two sentences." What a fucking clumsy pen. Come on. As he spoke, he pulled out a silver ticket from his bosom and threw it out. "Run, your grandmother's pen. "The man caught the silver ticket in the wind. I saw that it said twenty taels of official silver. My eyelids were so happy that I burst open with laughter. The cat stretched his neck and hurriedly said, "Xie Dadong." Xie Dadong's family. Come on. Ignition. ”
"Phew... Table tennis.. Pyri Pop Pyri Snap. Bang.. Table tennis.. ”
Firecrackers erupted on the streets on both sides. The moment rang out. Blue smoke fills the air. The huge Yunhua Building is shrouded in immortal steaming. It's like a dream. Watching the lively people, they are crowded into three floors inside and three floors outside. The heads flickered into a clump. Like tens of thousands of catties of rats washed down by a flood. Qin Juexiang sniffed the incense of gunpowder. Glancing at the people. The indescribable joy in my heart. Dismounted, and waved his hand. Stepping on safflower shredded paper. Strut to the deafening sound of firecrackers. Lead the crowd into the building. The men then shut down the door. Hand in hand. A lot of copper coins were scattered. People see it. Regardless of the fact that the firecrackers blew up the ears. Hula swarmed forward. Two hands scratched and touched the ground. Grab a piece.
There were guests in the building who had been waiting for a long time. As soon as I saw Qin Juexiang coming in. They all stood up. Chang Sihao took a look. I saw that there were businessmen among the guests. There are officials. There are martial arts people. The color of the service varies. Each has its own corner. I don't even recognize it. These people laughed and said hello. Congratulations. Qin Juexiang returned the salute one by one. It's like entertaining an old friend you haven't seen in years. For a while, there was laughter and laughter in the building. It's very lively. The other side was a little inaudible.
In the midst of a cacophony. Chang Sihao leaned close to Chen Sheng's ear and said, "Brother Chen." There are not many days in Beijing. That's a lot of people. Chen Sheng smiled abruptly. The thumb and index finger are supported like pincers. The remaining three fingers are curled. He made a gesture for an ingot, and shook it. Ma Mingshao said loudly: "Brother Chen." You lead the marquis to the upper floor first. The brothers arranged seats for the Shimen and Huo Menchang. After the entertainment, I went up with the young master. Chen Sheng nodded. Ma Mingshao dragged the two into the crowd. And he was gone.
I entered the private room on the second floor and closed the door. The roots of the ears were much quieter all at once. Chen Sheng put the official clothes, ribbons and other things on the table. Pulled up a chair and sat down. He closed his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief. Leaning back. Leaned back in his chair. Chang Sihao looked at his face and relaxed obviously. Wrinkles at the corners of the eyes unfold. Oily shimmer. There is a texture of aged leather goods. It's only been a few days. There is obviously more gray hair on the sideburns than there was when we last met. I felt sad for a while. Slowly pull over the chair and sit down.
The two were silent. I sat like this for a while. The sound of firecrackers outside just stopped. It's as if all the hustle and bustle is far away. Chen Shengyi let out a long sigh of relief. Straighten up. I opened my eyes.
Chang Sihao said: "Big brother." You're tired. ”
Chen Shengyi: "Hmm. "Yes.
Chang Sihao said: "The matter of the Qin family. You let go and let the people below do more. Stop rushing ahead of everything. ”
Chen Shengyi narrowed his eyes: "When there is something to do." No matter how hard it is, I don't know how tired I am. I don't want to worry when I'm tired. When I'm free, my brain doesn't stop. You may even feel like you are gasping for breath. It's also a burden. ”
Chang Sihao smiled: "Big brother is really a hard worker. ”
He knew the reason why Chen Shengyi was idle. The smile faded quickly. Maybe Jue Xiang also understood the benefits of Brother Chen in his heart. Maybe this matter has nothing to do with Qin Menghuan. Maybe it has nothing to do with the fact that he was disciplined. Maybe there's just that awkward energy in the world. Let one see the other. I can't feel comfortable in my heart. He knew there was no solution to the matter. Said slowly: "In fact, Jue Xiang is also changing. The eldest brother has to give him a little more time. ”
Separated by a gap. And added: "His forbearance." Actually, it's a lot better. ”
"Forbearance. ”
Chen Sheng was slightly stunned. immediately understood that what he was talking about was that Qin Juexiang did not resist the decree in public. Looking at the official uniform on the table, he shook his head: "You are wrong. How do you think this official position came about? ”
Chang Sihao said: "That is naturally the emperor's ulterior motives." Set ......" He saw the denial in Chen Sheng's eyes. There was no sound. There was a pause. Surprised: "Could he ......?"
Chen Sheng nodded: "You see the guests downstairs." I should have guessed it a long time ago. ”
