Chapter 16 Zhang Sanfeng

On the official road to Nanjing City, eight Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes and carrying long swords were walking silently on foot.

The first person had white hair and beard, and his robes were wide, as if his feet were not touching the ground while walking.

The seven Taoists who followed behind him, although old and young, fat and thin, were all extremely fast.

This group of people dressed in free and easy clothes, and their temperament was like a fairy. At first glance, they were not ordinary people.

People along the way saw these people from a distance, and immediately hid to the side.

During this period of time, there have been many such figures in and out of Nanjing City, and the common people are curious and deeply worried at the same time.

Zhang Sanfeng looked at the people along the way who avoided their group like snakes and scorpions, suddenly stopped and sighed.

"Master, what's wrong?" Yu Lianzhou asked behind him.

"The people fear me like a wolf, why is this?" Zhang Sanfeng asked.

Yu Lianzhou was silent for a moment and said: "At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, all the heroes rose together, the world was in chaos, the people and the people were struggling to live, and some scum of the rivers and lakes used their own force, and rose up in the chaos to carry out some things of burning, killing and plundering. Therefore, the people are afraid of me and other warriors."

"Yes!"

"There's an old saying: with a sharp weapon, the killing intent arises."

"Martial arts are about to flourish, but this may not be a good thing for the people of the world!" Zhang Sanfeng sighed again.

Behind him, many disciples and grandchildren were puzzled for a while.

Now it's obvious that the imperial court wants to suppress the world's warriors, why does Zhang Sanfeng say that martial arts will flourish?

Only Yu Lianzhou remained silent because he knew the reason.

"When you walk in the rivers and lakes in the future, you must abide by your duties, and don't do things that bully the weak."

"If you dare to bully the people, let me know and punish them severely." Zhang Sanfeng's voice suddenly became cold.

"Follow the order!" Many disciples and disciples behind him stunned, and they all agreed.

Everyone was about to continue their journey when two strong horses suddenly rushed towards them. The two of them were wearing flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives across their waists.

Everyone in Wudang had a fresh memory of Jinyiwei. The newly formed Eagle and Dog organization of the imperial court had just climbed Wudang Mountain to show off its mighty force half a month ago, so they were glaring at them at the moment.

"Zhang Zhenren!"

The two dismounted from their horses and clasped their fists, respectfully saying: "My Crown Prince has been waiting for a long time at the Wuji Mountain Villa five miles ahead. Zhang Zhenren saddled the horse all the way and got tired. His Royal Highness has already prepared tea there. Zhang Zhenren can rest there for a while and wait for the martial arts. The meeting begins."

"His Royal Highness?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhang Sanfeng's eyes, and he said in a warm voice, "Since we have reached the boundary of Nanjing, Lao Dao will naturally obey the arrangements of the imperial court, and lead the way!"

Zhu Biao circled around in such a large circle, and it was natural to choose the meeting place at Wuji Mountain Villa.

As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, he has a distinguished status, and it is impossible for him to surrender his identity and go up the official road to meet Zhang Sanfeng. However, as a martial arts legend, Zhang Sanfeng personally came to participate in the martial arts conference held by the imperial court, but the respect and sincerity that he should be given should still be given. show.

Therefore, it was only natural that Zhang Sanfeng was received as the host at the gate of this villa, which was specially renamed and specially used to entertain martial arts people, twenty miles away from Nanjing City.

This not only gave Zhang Sanfeng great face, but also maintained the dignity and bearing of the court.

To be honest, Zhu Biao had to think about it himself, he couldn't think of it, and Zhu Yuanzhang taught him the whole journey.

After this incident, Zhu Biao found out that Lao Zhu was playing more games than himself when it came to such things as compulsion.

If you think about it, it's actually normal.

With so many heroes in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, why did only Lao Zhu become Emperor Hongwu?
Old Zhu still has something.

Soon Zhang Sanfeng and his party arrived, and Zhu Biao himself stood at the gate to welcome them into Zhuangzi.

Housing and meals are well arranged.

This eased the expressions of the few Taoist priests who had followed Zhang Sanfeng and had a stinky face since they first met.

Obviously, it is very useful for himself and others to be so valued by the imperial court.

"His Royal Highness, you have reached the peak of Rong Jin?" In a pavilion, Zhang Sanfeng and Zhu Biao sat opposite each other, sipping tea and chatting.

"The real person's eyes are vicious, I do have some talent in martial arts!" Zhu Biao did not hide it, and he couldn't hide it in front of Zhang Sanfeng.

"His Royal Highness, as the prince of the dynasty, will inherit the great lineage in the future. If you are obsessed with martial arts, it may not be a good thing!" Zhang Sanfeng said with a frown.

"Isn't my father in the Rong Jin realm?" Zhu Biao asked rhetorically.

"How can fighting the world and sitting the world be the same?"

"When the country was first established, His Majesty conquered the world with military force. When His Highness succeeded to the throne, the country was already stable. The most important thing to do is to carry forward culture and education and cultivate with the people."

"His Royal Highness practice martial arts, if you are obsessed with it, the world will surely be flattering."

"The king of Chu is so slender, and there are many allusions about starvation in the palace. Your Highness doesn't know about it, right?" Zhang Sanfeng advised warmly.

Some of the civil servants actually said these words to themselves, but they were all very obscure, not like Zhang Sanfeng, who said it so bluntly.

In the end, it's still hopeless.

The old Taoist did not like to be an official, and he said these words only for the common people of the world, so naturally there were no taboos.

However, the limitations of history still exist even for Zhang Sanfeng, who has lived to be 120 years old.

As a traveler, Zhu Biao can look at this issue from a higher level.

He is deeply aware that the development of culture and education is necessary, but the military also needs to be maintained.

Without the army, it is impossible to maintain the centralization of power, and it is impossible to deter the nomads in the north, and it will become a deformed lame.

Even though the lame man was as tall as a giant, he was still a lame man.

If someone discovers the true face of the lame leg, with just a slight push, the giant will fall to the ground with a bang, and the empire will crumble.

That's how the Ming Dynasty died in the end.

What's more, there is still a recovery of spiritual energy. If you don't develop martial arts, and don't build the Ming Dynasty into an empire that is full of martial arts and armed to the teeth, what is waiting for yourself and for Daming is death.

Of course, Zhu Biao couldn't say these words.

So he sighed and said quite Versailles: "Actually, I'm not too obsessed with martial arts, just practice casually, and I'll be at the peak of my strength."

"To tell you the truth, I've only been in contact with martial arts for less than a year!"

The fourth disciple, Zhang Songxi, who served next to Zhang Sanfeng, was pouring tea for his master and His Royal Highness. Hearing this, his hands couldn't help but his face turned slightly red, feeling that he had suffered a [-]-point crit.

He has been practicing martial arts for 40 years now, and his cultivation has just reached the peak of his strength.

His Royal Highness has practiced for a year and is just like himself. The key is that he is still the real Dragon Emperor born with a golden key.

This... the difference is so disappointing!
