The counterattack of the villains

Chapter 366
In the main bedroom of Prince Xin's Mansion, Zhu Youjian slowly opened his eyes, and subconsciously stroked his arm.

At this moment, he can still feel the pain in the place where he pinched just now, which means that what happened in the dream just now is indeed all real.

Zhu Youjian couldn't help getting excited, he sat up gently, and whispered: "Master Li, are you there?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Mu's voice sounded in his head: "I'm here, I've put the maids and guards to sleep just now, wake up the princess and get dressed, I'll wait for you in the courtyard."

"Okay, I'll be here right away." Zhu Youjian responded, and quickly shook the princess beside him: "My concubine, wake up quickly, my concubine."

Concubine Zhou, that is, the benevolent and virtuous Empress Zhou in the future, was soon awakened by him, and asked in a daze, "My lord, what's wrong?"

Zhu Youjian said excitedly: "Don't ask anything, change clothes quickly, don't call the servants, hurry up."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the princess to get up, he jumped over her, jumped off the bed and began to dress himself.

He's not a spoiled, spoiled guy who can't even put on clothes.

Seeing this, the princess finally woke up completely. She quickly got up and got out of bed, and while helping Zhu Youjian tidy up her clothes, she asked, "My lord, what happened? Where are you going in the middle of the night?"

Zhu Youjian suppressed his excitement, and said with a little pretense: "This king is going to save all the people from fire and water, and protect the great Ming Dynasty."

"Ah?" The concubine paused her hands, opened her mouth slightly, and opened her eyes wide, staring at Zhu Youjian in a daze.

Seeing her stunned look, Zhu Youjian was so cute, he couldn't help holding her pretty face, pecked her lips lightly, and then said with a smile: "Don't be confused, Concubine Ai, you will know how to answer in a while." It's okay, let's change clothes."

The concubine Zhou was born weak and slender, but she has icy muscles and bones, and her appearance is extremely beautiful.

Her appearance is described in the history books as "the queen's face is Ruyu, she is not glamorous, and her country is full of beauty".

The beauty of the country is full of wine in the morning, and the clothes are dyed at night with the fragrance of the sky.Dan Jingchun is drunk, and the bright moon asks when he will return.

Although she is only 16 years old now, she has not yet fully grown up, but she has already revealed the peerless beauty of the country.

Hearing what Zhu Youjian said, the princess stopped talking and quickly put on her dress.

Seeing that Zhu Youjian was so eager, she no longer dressed carefully, but just combed her hair with a wooden comb and tied it with a silk ribbon.

Anyway, she is naturally beautiful, even if she is not glamorous, she is still slim and beautiful.

Although this casual hair style made her a little bit less elegant than a lady's, it added a little bit of Xiaojiabiyu's delicacy, which gave Zhu Youjian a different feeling.

When the concubine was ready, Zhu Youjian couldn't wait to hold her little hand, and walked quickly to the bedroom.

Leaving the bedroom and going to the outside room, I saw the servant girl who served at night lying on the ground without moving.

The princess was startled, and was about to speak, but Zhu Youjian turned around, put a finger on his lips, and made a silent movement.

"Don't be afraid, they just fell asleep, it's okay."

The princess felt a little relieved when she heard the words, but she was very curious about Zhu Youjian's mysterious behavior, and didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.

The two walked through the main room and opened the door, and immediately saw a white figure standing in the courtyard.

Lanterns were hung under the eaves around the courtyard, it was not pitch black, so Zhu Youjian recognized Li Mu at a glance.

Although it happened in a dream, this dream was different from ordinary dreams, and Zhu Youjian remembered all the details clearly.

When Zhu Youjian pulled Wangfei to the front, Li Mu clasped his fists and said, "I've seen you, Wangfei."

Zhu Youjian raised his hand and said, "There's no need to be too polite, I've kept Sect Leader Li waiting for a long time, so let's go now?"

Li Mu nodded and said, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, so let's go."

After saying this, Li Mujian pointed, and the flying sword was unsheathed, and it still turned into four handles just like in the dream.

"Ah, this, this, this..." The princess was dumbfounded again.

Li Mu stepped straight on the flying sword in front of him, Zhu Youjian grasped the hilt with his familiar hands, raised his foot to stand on the flying sword under his feet, then turned his head and said to the princess: "My concubine, come up quickly and hug my waist."

The concubine said in a messy way: "My lord, where are we going? What's going on here?"

Zhu Youjian said seriously: "Let's go to Nandu. I'll tell you the details on the way. Come up now!"

Hearing what Zhu Youjian said, the princess didn't ask any more questions. He is her husband and her god, and she will go wherever he goes.

She grabbed Zhu Youjian's waist first, imitating his movements, and stood sideways on the flying sword.

After standing still, he changed from grasping to hugging, his arms wrapped around Zhu Youjian's waist, and his small face was pressed against Zhu Youjian's back.

Zhu Youjian turned to Li Mu and asked, "Master Li, how long will it take to get to the south? I'm afraid the princess won't be able to stand up."

He knew that when Yu Jian was flying, a layer of body protection mana would be emitted from the flying sword, which would protect them from falling and also dispel the strong wind.

It's just that in the dream, he found that the flying speed of the flying sword was not fast.

At that time, he was still sighing inwardly, it seemed that people in the world didn't understand Sword Immortal, so he just imagined it out of thin air.

The real Yujian flies, not so fast.

It's two thousand miles away from the southern capital, and the concubine's body is weak, and he was afraid that she might not be able to hold on if she stood for too long.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Don't worry, my lord. I didn't use full speed last time. After all, it's only such a small distance. It only takes a cup of tea to travel from the capital to Nandu, so the princess won't be troubled."

Zhu Youjian suddenly realized, and finally felt relieved, and said happily: "Then let's go."

"Okay." Li Mu responded, and immediately made a tactic with both hands, and the flying sword immediately extended a thin layer of red aura, forming an oval protective shield to protect people in it.

Then it soared into the sky, turned into two crimson streamers, and flew towards the south.

Although she didn't feel a trace of wind, the princess closed her eyes in fright as she flew higher and higher and looked at the ground that was quickly moving away, feeling that her legs were a little weak.

But Zhu Youjian didn't feel uncomfortable at all, but excited.

Looking at the mountains that were quickly passed by under the moonlight, as well as the dots of lights in the city, Zhu Youjian felt very happy.

Slowly, he let go of the hand holding the hilt of the sword, and spread his arms out as if flying.

At this time, the spiritual power shield extended by the flying sword under his feet made him feel like walking on the ground, even if he did not stand on the sword, he would not fall.

Yu Jian rides the wind and roams the world, so it turns out to be such a carefree feeling.

If he could become a sword fairy himself, let alone a prince, what would an emperor do?

However, the condition for Master Li to teach him the art of controlling the sword is to be a good emperor, and he can only work hard to take care of the country first.

"My lord, we are flying."

The princess didn't have any fear of heights. After getting over the initial discomfort, she finally dared to open her eyes, and was surrounded by the joyful feeling of Yujian flying.

Flying freely is almost the dream of all human beings. Who has never dreamed of flying since childhood?
Both Zhu Youjian and the princess used to fly freely in their dreams, but now, this former dream has come into reality.

"Haha, yes, we are flying, but now we are being taken by others to fly. One day, I want to fly by myself."

The concubine said happily: "Then I will also fly with the prince."

"Okay, let's fly together."

Looking at the young couple who love each other, Li Mu smiled knowingly.

Although Li Mu has multiple women in some worlds, those are special circumstances, and in most worlds he always sticks to one.

He himself still prefers a couple for a lifetime, and when this young couple becomes a couple of dual monks, I believe Zhu Youjian will no longer be interested in other women.

Anyway, among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, it is not that there were no emperors with only one woman.

Emperor Xiaozong Zhu Youtang of the Ming Dynasty had only one Empress Zhang in his life, and no other women.

Since there is already a precedent, I believe that Zhu Youjian has only one Queen Zhou, and no one will say anything.

……

A sea island full of peach blossoms, flying cranes and spirit beasts.

Five people from Zheng Zha, three people from Fu Tianchou's father and daughter, three people from Zuo Qianhu, and dozens of military officers with helmets and armour, sat around in a peach grove.

This is another dream created by Zheng Zha. He connected the spirits of the related people together, and then pulled them into the same dream.

Those dozens of military attaches are officials at all levels of the Southern Zhili Metropolitan Command and Envoy Division. In addition to the officials of the Metropolitan Command and Envoy Division (equivalent to the headquarters), there are also commanders of the guards.

Zuo Qianhu sighed and said: "You really are the means of gods, and you can even make people meet in dreams, admiration."

Fu Tianchou echoed, "Yes, discussing matters in this dream is extremely safe, no one can spy on you."

Zheng Zha smiled and said: "It is precisely because of this that I will use such methods. Here, everyone can speak freely without any scruples."

Fu Tianchou nodded, glanced at the military officers, and said, "Everyone, today Mr. Zheng used his great magic power to pull you into a dream. There is an important matter related to the peril of the Ming Dynasty. I want to discuss it with everyone."

"Presumably you have all received the order from this officer to rush to Nandu to discuss matters. With this dream discussion today, you can save yourself a trip."

"Now I will explain the matter to you first. You can choose what to do. I will never force you."

After finishing his opening remarks, Fu Tianchou did not hesitate to explain the matter of Purdue Cihang to everyone in detail.

After listening to Fu Tianchou's narration, the arena was silent, you looked at me, I looked at you, but no one spoke first.

After Fu Tianchou and the others digested it for a while, he continued to speak: "If you have any thoughts now, you can talk about it. Stand up if you want to talk."

After a few more breaths of silence in the arena, Liu Shouming, the commander of the Nanzhili Metropolitan Government, got up first and asked Fu Tianchou, "Master Fu, if you dare to ask this news, has it ever been verified?"

Fu Tianchou looked at Zheng Zha, and Zheng Zha stood up and said, "Lord Liu, not only have these news been confirmed, but I also had a preliminary confrontation with that Pudu Cihang in the capital."

Liu Shouming frowned slightly, and said hesitantly: "But after all, this is just your one-sided statement. Since Mr. Fu didn't see it with his own eyes, how can we be sure that what you said is true?"

Liu Shouming didn't mean to have trouble with Zheng Zha, he was the same kind of person as Zuo Qianhu, but he didn't dare to trust Zheng Zha simply because Zheng Zha couldn't produce evidence.

After all, this matter was too unbelievable. All the civil and military officials in the capital were possessed by demons, which was too terrifying. He neither dared to believe nor wanted to believe it.

Zheng Zha said seriously: "Many people in the capital witnessed my battle with Pudu Cihang, so it is easy to ask for a certificate."

"It's just that the place where we fought was at a high altitude, and the people didn't know the truth. They only thought that some monster invaded the capital and was repelled by the guardian of the country."

"In that battle, both of us were just tentatively fighting, and we didn't go all out, so we had a tie, and there was no winner."

"But because Purdue Cihang has won over the old demon of Montenegro and the King of Yin-Yang, it is impossible for me to win alone."

"That's why I evacuated first at that time, and waited for the manpower to be ready before officially launching the battle of righteousness and evil."

Most of the military officers present here are warriors, and they are no strangers to the term "battle between righteousness and evil".

Even ordinary people have heard more or less about the story of Shushan sword immortals fighting demons and demons hundreds of years ago, needless to say for warriors.

Even the common people only know that it is a legend, and many of the ancestors of the warriors in the world are connected with the practice world.

So they know better that Shushan sword immortals and demon giants really existed hundreds of years ago.

When they first entered the dreamland, Fu Tianchou had already introduced the origins of several people, so they didn't have much doubt about Zheng Zha and others.

Liu Shouming's question was just a normal inquiry.

After listening to Zheng Zha's words, Liu Shouming basically believed it, so he said: "Since the source of the chaos in the world is Pudu Cihang and those demons."

"Then as long as you destroy them, everything will be fine? Why do you want us to raise troops?"

Zheng Zha said seriously: "Because all the civil and military officials in the court have been occupied by demons, and even the three major battalions in the capital may have generals swallowed up. At that time, they will definitely mobilize a large army to encircle us."

"After all, they are all my Ming soldiers. They are only deceived by demons. We can't kill them all."

"One more thing, Daming will come to this step today, and the current emperor bears an inescapable responsibility."

"What is the situation of our emperor? I believe everyone knows better than me. Ask yourself, is he really suitable to be an emperor?"

"This……"

Liu Shouming was speechless, and all the commanders showed embarrassment on their faces, and they all whispered about the current emperor.

After all, this is in a dream, so it's okay to talk about it.

A guard commander got up and said: "But even if we raise troops, with the soldiers and horses of Nanzhili, it is impossible to defeat the imperial court!"

As soon as he said this, the field immediately fell silent again.

There were 547 guards in the Ming Dynasty, and there were 54 guards in Guangnan Zhili. According to the establishment, there should have been 30 troops.

It's just that the establishment of some guards is not the standard 5600 people, and some guards are dissatisfied with the number.

For example, Fengyang Guard is divided into Fengyang Left Guard, Fengyang Right Guard, and Fengyang Zhongwei.

These guards only have the strength of two thousand households, and they are said to be three guards, but in fact there is only one guard with the strength of one thousand households, which is equivalent to a strengthened guard.

There are still many similar situations, so the 12% discount and [-]% discount, in fact, there are only [-] soldiers and horses in Nanzhili.

The three major battalions of the capital and the soldiers and horses of Beizhili combined have an army of more than 30.

There are also about 20 soldiers and horses on the road from Yingtianfu in the south to Shuntianfu in the north. If they are all mobilized, the imperial court can gather 50 troops in a short period of time.

Especially the Shenji Battalion, one of the three major battalions in the capital, is equipped with the most advanced firecrackers and cannons. This Shenji Battalion alone can support 10 soldiers.

With their 12 troops using cold weapons, how could they win?
