Chapter 45, Freedom of Wine and Meat

Jiang Wangsheng hugged Huang Mengjue, and took Yun Yuyan to the south, found a small town, took advantage of the night, and quietly checked into an inn.

Yun Yuyan looked curiously at Huang Mengjue, who was profusely sweating, and asked, "This sister looks very painful."

The two palms met, and their true energy was transferred, Jiang Wangsheng's brows became more and more wrinkled.

Jiang Wangsheng withdrew his internal strength and exhaled a foul breath.

"Ok?"

Jiang Wangsheng shook his head, "She was injured too badly, and her true energy penetrated into her internal organs. It's just that the old eunuch practiced the most yin and cold exercises."

"My inner strength is both hard and soft, but it's hard to achieve the ultimate. Only the most rigid and yang inner strength can make her heal." Jiang Wangsheng explained.

Yun Yuyan asked: "Then whose kung fu is the strongest?"

Jiang Wangsheng shook his head, "I have hardly been around the rivers and lakes, so I don't know much about the internal strength of martial arts people."

"But." Jiang Wangsheng frowned, stood up, looked at the east, thought for a moment, and smiled slightly, "Someone has chosen."

"Who?"

Xichu, Imperial Study Room
When Emperor Chu heard the report, he sneered, "Jiang Bo, didn't you say that Jiang Wangsheng lost his sword heart and could defeat him within ten moves?"

Eunuch Jiang Bo was so ashamed that he knelt on the ground, his head still refused to leave the ground, and replied: "This slave is too arrogant, please punish him."

"Punishment will be avoided." Chu Huang wrote lightly.

"But Beili's marriage is imminent."

Emperor Chu pointed to Eunuch Jiang Bo, and said to the young eunuch, "Xiao Jiu, tell him."

"Yes."

After saluting to Emperor Chu, Xiao Jiu walked up to Eunuch Jiang Bo, and said, "This morning, there was an urgent report from Beili's spies. King Zhennan left the palace and entered the border of Beili in armor."

Eunuch Jiang Bo frowned and his eyes rolled wildly.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Eunuch Jiang Bo stood up tremblingly.

Chu Huang said: "I don't blame you, Jiang Wangsheng's martial arts are indeed rare in the world."

Eunuch Jiang Bo asked: "Eunuch Baomin chased him out last night, shouldn't he?"

"Someone struck out from Tianwang City and came westward with a sword, seriously injuring Mr. Baomin. Now, he is still recuperating in the Prison of Rites." Xiao Jiu paused, "So, from now on, I will trouble Mr. Jiang Bo to work harder."

Emperor Chu waved his hand, "Back off."

"The slave obeys."

The Emperor Chu asked: "Xiao Jiu, why do you think I want the two of them to marry and go to Beili?"

"Your Majesty's actions are for the world to see. Since this is the case, Beili has no reason to take the initiative to attack me, Xichu."

Emperor Chu nodded, "That's right, water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. An unjust teacher is the hardest to win the hearts of the people, and it is also the hardest to fight a long-lasting battle."

Not long after, someone came to report again: "Your Majesty, Nie Tianzhou from the Spring and Autumn Sword House is asking to see you."

"Xuan!" Chu Huang sat on his seat and regained his previous majesty.

A young man with a handsome appearance and a rich spirit like jade walked into the imperial study with a sword, and bowed half-kneeling to the Emperor of Chu, "Nie Tianzhou, see Your Majesty."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Nie Tianzhou got up, he handed over a letter with both hands, "My teacher has recently retreated and practiced hard, so he can't come to see His Majesty, so I asked the grass-roots people to come and bring a confession."

"How is the old sword armor?" Chu Huang asked.

"Master, everything is fine." Nie Tianzhou paused, and added: "The swordsmanship is getting better and better."

Chu Huang nodded slightly.

Xiao Jiu took the letter, checked it, and presented it to Emperor Chu.

After seeing it, Emperor Chu showed a faint smile, "The old man in sword armor is a hero in the world, and I have admired him for a long time. But, you are a bit overqualified to carry the letter, right?"

Nie Tianzhou thought for a moment, and said: "The teacher has always liked the junior sister. Therefore, the grassroots are offended, and I beg Your Majesty to dissolve Mengjue's engagement."

"This..." Chu Huang pretended to be hesitant, and glanced at the young eunuch.

The young eunuch understood, took a step forward, and said, "Young Xia Nie, the peace between the two countries cannot be decided by His Majesty alone."

"Your Majesty, Cao Min was actually entrusted by his family teacher. The Spring and Autumn Sword House has been loyal to Xichu from now on. I only hope that His Majesty will take back his order." Nie Tianzhou knelt down again.

Emperor Chu showed some satisfaction, and waved his hands, "Go and discuss with Huang Aiqing, and I am discussing with Xiangfu and Yafu."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When Nie Tianzhou left, he was still worried.

Xiao Jiu hurriedly praised: "Your Majesty is brilliant."

Nie Tianzhou didn't know how deep the water in Tianwang City was, he just relied on his experience of walking in the rivers and lakes to live in the world.

It is very good to be so.

But in front of these old foxes in the officialdom, they are undoubtedly insignificant.

In the bamboo forest, an unshaven and ragged monk was lying on the cliff.

His handsome appearance is like a big dream in bed.

He was holding an orange wine gourd in his hand, and there was a half chicken leg wrapped in oiled paper on the stone.

The great monk burped, wiped his hands and mouth with his clothes, jumped off the Baizhang cliff, and landed on a green bamboo.

"Your Excellency has been with me for so long, what do you intend to do?" the great monk said loudly.

Jiang Wangsheng stood opposite the great monk, showing a kind smile: "I need your help with something."

"Monk, I am walking in the mountains, how do you know where I am?"

"I happened to be resting in the small town, but I suddenly noticed a peerless powerhouse in the heart lake. The Buddha of Wine and Meat." Jiang Wangsheng stared at him.

The great monk sighed, "There are talented people from generation to generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years. The Yangtze River is so young."

"I'm not."

The Wine and Meat Buddha looked at him, and said "Tsk", "With such strong martial arts, why are you still hiding your head and showing your tail? Although I am ranked below you, I am a congenital master."

Jiang Wangsheng, that is, Changjiang, chuckled, "My martial arts are quite special, and I can't explain them clearly in a few words. In short, it's not entirely my efforts, so naturally I don't have the face to admit it."

The wine and meat Buddha head frowned, took a sip of wine, "Why should I help you?"

After all, get up and go.

Jiang Wangsheng had an instant phantom, blocking his way, and said, "Don't worry, let's sit down and have a good talk. We won't let you help in vain."

The Buddha of Wine and Meat looked at him suspiciously, and said in relief: "It's boring, it's boring, monk, I don't like doing boring things the most."

"Over the years, you have been unwilling to set foot in the Beili territory, but you still can't forget the Beichan Temple, so you have been haunting the border."

The body of the Wine and Meat Buddha, who was about to leave, looked at him in surprise as if he had been immobilized by someone.

Jiang Wangsheng said: "It's not difficult to guess. In the past, you were the number one in the ninth rank of the Tianbang, and the genius who met once in a thousand years in Beichan Temple must be the head of Buddhism in the future."

"However, Emperor Tianwu of Beili is licentious and innocent. He used the life of a city to coerce you to drink and eat meat, just to smile for his concubine."

"Although you have passed through your intestines with wine and meat, but the Buddha's heart sits in your heart, you have become a Taoist in the past, and you have become a congenital master."

"Later, he was expelled from Beichan Temple because he violated the temple's clear rules and regulations."

Jiang Wangsheng is very familiar with the matter of the Buddha of Wine and Meat.

The Wine and Meat Buddha stared at him, his voice was a little hoarse, like a child who had just changed his voice, "What do you want to say?"

"Although you have become a congenital master, drinking alcohol and eating meat runs counter to the Buddhist skills. Therefore, you have a hidden disease in your body, which is why you were ranked fourth in the list by Tianji Pavilion."

Jiang Wangsheng said slowly, "I'll help you get rid of your hidden illness."

"The Buddha said that the four elements are all empty, but it's just a life. Monk, I haven't taken it to heart."

Jiang Wangsheng said: "Beili Jianghu bowed their heads to the imperial court. Are you really willing to reduce Beichan Temple, which grew up from a young age, to become the emperor's minions and be driven by others?"

"The pure land of Buddhism, do you really have the heart to let the disciples of the Buddhist disciples in the north become tools for Emperor Tianwu to fight for power?"

The Buddha of Wine and Meat smiled wryly: "So what if you don't want to? The tide is about to fall, you and I are just a fish swimming in the tide."

"Do you know why I don't like your Buddhism and Taoism? It's because you believe in this and that." Jiang Wangsheng pouted.

He raised his jade flute, "I only believe that it depends on human effort."

The Wine and Meat Buddha took a deep breath, "Amitabha Buddha. If people in the world follow me, they will be like fallen demons."
