save the bachelors

Chapter 2986 2988 [Two peaches kill three warriors]

In the 12th year of Zhenwu, the Zhenwu Army sent troops to the Western Regions, completely defeated the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and successfully recovered the Western Regions.

In the same year, Zhou Zhiruo finally gave birth to a son for Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan named him Song Li, which meant that a carp could transform into a dragon, but he rejected the courtier's proposal to make Song Li the crown prince.

Because he didn't want to decide too early on the candidate for the crown prince.

First, it is easy to bring disaster to the crown prince.

As we all know, the East Palace is more dangerous than the imperial palace, and the crown prince is more difficult than the emperor.

The tree attracts the wind, and the crown prince is the sole legal heir to the imperial power, so it is hard not to be envied and plotted against.

In "East Palace", the eldest prince Li Chengji, the second prince Li Chengye, the third prince Li Chengwen, and the fourth prince Li Chengyuan are all victims of the power struggle.

Even if the fifth prince, Li Chengyin, finally ascended the throne as the emperor, it is reasonable to say that he was the winner of the heir apparent, but in the process of fighting for the throne, he lost his most beloved woman forever.

Secondly, the crown prince himself may have two minds.

Power is the best poison to corrode people's hearts. It is human nature to push forward an inch and look forward to Sichuan, and it will never be satisfied.The same is true for the prince. Maybe after sitting for a long time, he wants to change his seat.

And the prince is not just a person, there are a lot of courtiers behind him, waiting to support the prince as emperor in order to obtain the merit of being a dragon.

Even if the prince is filial and unwilling to take any action, those ministers can't help it.

The story of the yellow robe added to the body happened more than once.

In order to avoid these two troubles, Xiang Nan naturally didn't want to establish a prince early.

However, in feudal society, even the emperor could not do whatever he wanted.

The emperor's refusal to establish a crown prince is a big deal for the ministers.

The so-called one in a thousand miles, in case Xiangnan died suddenly, the position of prince was not confirmed.At that time, the princes may fight for the throne, and the powerful ministers may usurp the throne.

Therefore, in order to ensure the safe and effective inheritance of imperial power, the emperor must establish a reserve as soon as possible, so that the country can be stabilized.

Many ministers even did not hesitate to resign from office, or kneel in front of the palace gate and go on hunger strike to protest.

Xiang Nan took advantage of this to send off several incompetent ministers, and then took advantage of the opportunity to propose a secret reserve plan.

After hesitating for a moment, the officials finally agreed.

……

In the 15th year of Zhenwu, news of Mingjiao appeared in the world again.

In the Huaisi area, Mingjiao revived, and some people secretly formed associations to spread Mingjiao teachings.Bewitching the villagers, amassing money, intending to rebel.

Xiang Nan sent Jin Yiwei to thoroughly investigate the case, and asked Wudang, Shaolin, and Emei schools to assist.

In the end, the head and backbone of the organization were captured and sent to Dadu for torture.The rest of the villagers who were bewitched were given [-] slaps each to make an example.

"Are you the new Mingjiao five-scattered member?" Xiang Nan asked, looking at the man in his thirties.

This person's name is Xu Ru, and he is a new member of the Five Disciples of the Ming Sect, and his martial arts are quite good.When arresting him, Jin Yiwei killed more than ten people, and Wudang and Shaolin disciples also injured seven or eight, which can be said to be quite powerful.

"Yes, I am." Xu Ru said loudly.

"Why rebel?" Xiang Nan asked.

"Why did you rebel in the first place?" Xu Ru confronted.

Xiang Nan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, "You are a self-appointed member of the Ming Sect, right? The Ming Sect of China has already been destroyed, and even the head teacher of Persia has long since died. Who named you a member of the Five Scattered People?"

"You don't care." Xu Ru pouted, "Kill if you want, don't be so verbose."

"If you don't tell me, I will know." Seeing this, Xiang Nan smiled slightly, and then cast the soul-shifting method, and in the blink of an eye, Xu Ru was under control.

"Who is your master?" he asked afterward.

"Bright Messenger Fan Yao." Xu Ru replied foolishly.

When Xiang Nan heard this, he was shocked, "Where is he now?"

"I don't know, he disappeared half a month ago." Xu Ru replied again.

"How did you get to know him?" Xiang Nan asked again suspiciously.

Xu Ru then told the story of how he and Fan Yao got acquainted.

It turned out that 20 years ago, Xu Ru was still a beggar, begging along the street, lonely and helpless.After being adopted by Fan Yao, he taught him arts and martial arts, and taught him the teachings of Mingjiao, making him a member of the Mingjiao Wusan.

According to Xu Ru, Fan Yao adopted as many as a hundred orphans.Several of them were smarter, wittier, and better at martial arts than he was.

Xiang Nan nodded, then let go of Xu Ru.

Xu Ru looked at Xiang Nan, completely speechless in surprise.

He thought he was also a top-notch expert in the world, but he didn't expect that in front of Xiang Nan, he was like a naughty boy whose pants had been stripped, completely powerless to fight back.

"What kind of kung fu is this... there is such a miraculous skill in the world?" He looked at Xiang Nandao in disbelief.

Xiang Nan ignored him.

The Ming religion revived.Now, since there are Wusanren, there must also be the Five Elements Banner, Dharma Protector, and Mingjiao leader.

In this way, if it is not eradicated in time, it is likely to cause disaster again.

……

After Xiang Nan thought about it, he decided to use six holy fire orders as bait to lure Mingjiao out.

He specially held a martial arts conference in the capital, inviting all sects, guilds, and aristocratic families from all over the country to attend the conference, and gave six holy fire orders as rewards to the six people with the strongest martial arts.

He knew that the torch order was the symbol of the leader of Mingjiao.Because of the loss of the sacred fire order, the subsequent Mingjiao leaders all had a feeling that "if the name is not correct, the speech will not be correct".

Therefore, as a die-hard fan and fanatic of the Ming Cult, if Fan Yao knew that the Holy Fire Order had appeared in this world, he would definitely find a way to get it.

Moreover, Xiang Nan also knows the truth that "Confucianism uses literature to disrupt law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate prohibitions".

A martial artist, no matter whether he is righteous or evil, white or black, is actually a potential dangerous element, which will pose a threat to his rule.

It's just that in the early days of Xiangnan's entrepreneurship, he needed the support of various martial arts factions.After assuming the throne, it is impossible to turn ruthless immediately.

Now, Grand Master Zhang Sanfeng has passed away, Supreme Emperor Song Yuanqiao is also very old, Miejue Shitai has entered an octogenarian age, and the four great Shaolin monks have all gone to the west now; He Taichong and his wife of Kunlun School, Huashan School The head of Xian Yutong, Kongtong Five Elders, etc. are also old and dead...

The successors are all from the new generation, and Xiang Nan doesn't have much impression of them, so naturally he doesn't have much favor.

The so-called world affairs are like a new chess game, and human feelings are as thin as paper.

In the past, Xiang Nan was too embarrassed to suppress the older generation in Jianghu, but now that the older generation is gone, he is naturally not polite.

It happened to use the six sacred fire orders to make the plan of "killing three scholars with two peaches".

The holy fire order has the holy fire order magic skill. Although its positioning is not as good as Taijiquan and Taijijian, it is also the peak martial arts of heresy. It is very tempting for martial arts people, and many people will definitely be interested.

And Mingjiao covets these six sacred fire orders even more.For them, this sacred fire order is like the jade seal passed on to the country, and it has extraordinary significance.

When the time comes, they must find ways to get them.

In this way, it is inevitable that there will be conflicts with various factions in the arena.

Just like in "Swordsman", for a copy of "Sword Manual of Disciplining Evil", most of the world can be disturbed.
