The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 394 Zhu Di wears the Mingguang Armor of the Tang Dynasty, and there is a successor to General Tiance. Lord Ye’s two conditions!
Under the candlestick in the ancestral hall,

Ye Qing just silently walked to the pillar and pulled the unique string.

Immediately afterwards, the three portraits that were originally fixed on the beam were put down at once.

At first glance, it really looks like a Taoist painting of the Three Pure Ones!
The tributes in front of the altar included roasted chicken, fruits, cakes and everything else. The only thing lacking was the incense stick.

What Ye Qing is doing now is lighting candles and incense.

When Ye Qing placed incense on the incense burner in front of the three giant pictures, Zhu Di, who was at the door, saw clearly the true colors of the three giant pictures.

The first picture from the left shows a general wearing Warring States armor, with his name and life story written in the upper left corner.

Yes, he is Li Mu, the God of War of the Warring States Period!
The middle picture shows an emperor wearing a dragon robe and a mustache. He is Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

But there is a bracket between the name and life story in the upper left corner. Within the brackets, there are four conspicuous characters written, that is 'Admiral Tiance'!
The picture on the right shows a general wearing Mingguang armor made in the Tang Dynasty. It is Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty!

"Why would Master set up an ancestral hall for them?"

Zhu Di looked at this scene with confusion in his eyes just like his parents.

He also respects these three people very much, but he is far from the level of worshiping them like his own ancestors.

You should worship someone with a foreign surname just like your ancestors, unless that person is your mentor.

"Could it be."

Thinking of this, Zhu Di immediately put aside this unrealistic conjecture.

Because these historical celebrities from hundreds or thousands of years ago could never be his master's mentors.

But because of this, he felt very strange.

He saw that Ye Qing's whole temperament had fundamentally changed since he stepped into the threshold of this ancestral hall.

There is really just a trace of cynicism, a trace of romantic and unruly temperament that is gone.

All he has is seriousness and admiration!

At this moment, Ye Qing, although he didn't speak, looked like a very well-behaved 'old scholar', whether it was his eyes or his small movements!
Looking at this scene, Zhu Di was getting more and more strange.

The more I read, the more I want to think about that unrealistic idea, but the more I think about that unrealistic idea, the more impossible it seems!

While Zhu Di was thinking this, Ye Qing knelt down directly on the futon.

Although Zhu Di is a well-known poor student in the main hall, like his father, he is still good at history. He can tell at a glance that this is the kneeling posture of a noble of the Tang Dynasty.

Not to mention how standard Ye Qing's kneeling posture is, I can only say that if he took off his Ming Dynasty Hanfu and changed into a Tang Dynasty Hanfu, he would be a true nobleman of the Tang Dynasty!
Ye Qing raised his head slightly, looking up at the portraits of his three mentors, and his thoughts suddenly returned to that era.

He once fought with Li Mu in a bloody battle with the Huns outside Yanmen Pass!
He worked with Li Shimin in the southern and northern wars, and also under Li Jing's command, he captured the Turkic Khan alive!
He also built the iron gate of Yanmen Pass and the 'Stone Wall Maze Array' that gave foreign enemies a headache for generations!
During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, he was the marshal behind the naval battle at Baijiangkou!

During the period of Wu Zetian, he was a white-haired doctor who had retired to practice medicine. However, when the barbarians invaded from all directions, he gave up medicine and became a martial artist, and then wore a battle armor!
Again, we can speak ill of the empress, but in front of the barbarians from all directions, no matter how bad the empress is, she is still their god!

For this sentence, he led his students Wang Xiaojie and Han Sizhong and other generals to win this 'first Asian war in history', and also won the 'Great Zhou Dynasty and Ten Thousand Kingdoms Praise Tianshu'!
The past is like smoke, and past honors are no longer so important in Ye Qing's eyes.

But he remembered that all his talents were taught by his three mentors.

Now, he has to use the general skills taught by his three mentors to deal with the Japanese slaves who will definitely cause harm to future generations!

"Here are the three mentors,"

"The two battles against the Japanese in the Yuan Dynasty were both defeated due to wind and waves, so that the Japanese slaves felt that their great licking god had worked."

"My disciple wants them to know that the only person they can pray to is the Great God of China!"

"So, please bless us and your descendants, and have a safe and smooth journey!"

"."

Thinking of this, Ye Qing changed from a kneeling position to a kneeling position.

Immediately afterwards, he kowtowed respectfully three times!

At the moment he stood up, he suddenly said: "Those behind the door, come in!"

Only then did Zhu Di realize that his master had already discovered him.

Yes,

With Zhu Di's skills, how could he not be discovered by Ye Qing.

Not to mention Zhu Di, even the imperial guards sent by Zhu Yuanzhang could not hide in front of him.

It has always been up to him whether Ye Qing wants to discover it or not, not whether Ye Qing can discover it!

The reason why he didn't want to find the boy behind the door just now was because he didn't want the serious atmosphere to be ruined. Now that the seriousness was over, it was time to find him.

Besides, since this kid considers himself his disciple, he should come and kowtow to his masters.

Zhu Di walked gently to Ye Qing, scratched his head sheepishly and said with a smile: "Master, do you also have eyes in your back?"

"By the way, why do you respect them so much? It's like they are your mentors."

Ye Qing patted Zhu Di on the shoulder and said seriously: "Young boy, if you still have some understanding, they are my mentors!"

"Don't you always think of yourself as my disciple?"

"Kneel down and kowtow to your masters!"

When Zhu Di heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

It's really okay to kowtow to them. Even if deep down in his heart, he doesn't admire him to that extent, it's not impossible to do so if his master demands it.

Furthermore, they are also ancestors who have made contributions to China, and they should also kowtow to one.

But his master said seriously that the three of them were his masters, which was somewhat "mysterious".

While Zhu Di knelt down, he looked at Ye Qing and said, "Master, don't scare me. This is not a joke."

Ye Qing said seriously: "Who are you kidding?"

"Since you say they are my disciples, you must treat them as masters and kneel down respectfully."

"If not, then you should do whatever you want."

The more Zhu Di listened, the more mysterious it became, and the more he listened, the more he felt that there was something cold and cold behind his back.

But he still did as Ye Qing said and kowtowed three times respectfully.

After Ye Qing smiled with satisfaction, he took him to his dressing room and took off his set of gilt and bright silver armor, the standard Tang Hengdao, and the tiger-head Zhanjin gun!

Zhu Di just glanced at it and was immediately fascinated.

It can be said that he has absolutely no interest in entering the bridal chamber with Xu Miaoyun now. This is how obsessed a military general is with armor and weapons.

Besides, what he saw before him was the best armor and the best weapons in China. Zhu Di tenderly stroked the picture of a tiger head and shoulders swallowing gold, fish scales and armor, and bright silver armor.

"Taizong of the Tang Dynasty gave him armor as a gift?"

"Qin Qiong's tiger-headed golden gun?"

"Master, in order to curry favor with you, their descendants gave you all their heirlooms?"

Zhu Di looked at Ye Qing and said in disbelief.

When Ye Qing heard this, he immediately became unhappy.

It is true that just like a father, there is also a son. The father and the son are all in the same boat, thinking that he has appropriated other people's heirlooms.

Ye Qing originally wanted to say that this was a fake just like when he deceived his father.

But now he doesn't want to say that!
This is the real thing, why call it a fake?
Ye Qing slapped Zhu Di on the forehead and said, "Is this the image I have in your heart?"

"Am I the one who thinks about other people's heirlooms every day?"

Zhu Di held his head and said aggrievedly: "If not, how could these things come from?"

"Don't say they gave it to you, I won't believe it to my death!"

"I"

Ye Qing looked at this guy who was as stubborn as his father and was immediately at a loss for words.

It seems that there is really no other way to say it except that it is a fake.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing looked at this young man who was the same size as himself and was only 18 years old.

In fact, Ye Qing had an idea as early as when 'Guo Silang' was kowtowing to his masters.

He would definitely not believe that these three were his masters, but when he kowtowed, there was only solemnity and deep respect in his eyes.

This is enough to prove that he really regards himself as a master and has a heartfelt respect for the Chinese martyrs!
In other words, this Guo Silang and Ye Qing have the same 'faith'!
He thought that these armors and weapons he brought back to modern times were just a set of useless souvenirs!
Nothing but commemoration!
Rather than doing this, it is better to pass it on to the good young people of this era before he dies.

It was precisely because of this idea that he brought this guy to his locker room.

Looking at the gentle way he touched the armor, he felt that he had seen the right person.

"perhaps,"

"He can make this armor play a greater role!"

Thinking of this, Ye Qing asked seriously: "Do you like this armor, this Tang sword, and this tiger-headed golden gun?"

Zhu Di just blinked his eyes, showing an obvious flattered expression.

Zhu Di said in disbelief: "Master, are you going to give it to me?"

"Of course I like it. The Tang Dynasty is the glory of China and the role model for my Ming Dynasty to pursue!"

With that said, Zhu Di picked up the tiger-headed golden gun again, and said with sharp eyes: "If I have them, I will definitely fight for the Ming Dynasty and China with their wishes."

Ye Qing looked at this scene and just nodded happily.

But then he put his hands behind his back and said: "Since you don't believe that they gave it to me, it means that these armors and weapons are all fakes. Do you also like fakes?"

Zhu Di still couldn't put it down, especially when he saw the 'Qin Qiong Seal' on the tiger-headed golden gun, his eyes shone.

He smiled lightly and said, "What does it matter?"

“I think it’s the real thing, it’s the real thing!”

Ye Qing finally nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I heard that you went to war with General Xu Da, I guess your martial arts should be pretty good."

"As long as you do two things, I will give it to you!"

Zhu Di said with confidence: "My kung fu is good, Lan Yu knows, I can go ten rounds under Lan Yu!"

"Master, please tell me, what two things?"

Ye Qing just squinted his eyes and smiled and said: "Awesome, you are so fucking awesome. You can actually go ten rounds under Lan Yu's hands. You are really fucking promising!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he thought it was a compliment to himself at first, but he always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.

After all, from what he knew about Ye Qing, he was a handsome man with military skills, but he was powerless.

It is impossible for a person with no strength to tame a chicken to mock him, a master who can go ten rounds under Lan Yu's hands!
Just when Zhu Di was still savoring these words,

Ye Qing said seriously: "The first thing is, before we go on the expedition, I will ask a martial artist to teach you."

"He thinks that you can wear this armor, carry this Tang sword at your waist, and hold this spear when you go into battle. You are qualified to wear them and go into battle."

"But at that time, I was just lending it to you!"

"If you want to truly own it, you have to complete the second thing, which is to personally kill more than a hundred Japanese people in the name of the vanguard general!"

Zhu Di just frowned slightly, and then said decisively: "Master, one hundred people are too few, let's use five hundred!"

"I still remember that at the beginning of the founding of the country, it was the Japanese country that disgraced His Majesty the Emperor!"

Having said this, Zhu Di wondered again: "By the way, Master, how many powerful martial arts masters can you know as a scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken?"

Ye Qing slapped him on the forehead again and said, "You look down on scholars, don't you?"

"Since you had the opportunity to fight Lan Yu, have you never heard of who defeated Lan Yu?"

Zhu Di shook his head firmly and said: "General Lan Yu has never said that he has been defeated by anyone!"

Ye Qing just raised the corner of his mouth slightly and silently deepened the impression of the word 'blue jade'.

"Put on your armor, take your weapons, and wait for me at the training ground."

"No, you're not waiting for me, you're waiting for the martial artist I find for you."

"."

As soon as Ye Qing finished speaking, he left this locker room that belonged to him alone.

Half an hour later,
Zhu Di wore this set of gilt and bright silver armor, carried the Tang Hengdao at his waist, and held the tiger-headed golden gun, and headed towards the practice ground with his head held high.

When passing by the dining room, they happened to be seen by Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife, Xu Da and Wang Baobao, who were quite drunk.

Seeing this scene, the four of them were shocked at first, and then laughed happily.

Because in their eyes, Zhu Di is the future 'Royal General'!
For him to be recognized by Ye Qing and become Ye Qing's first disciple must be a blessing to the Ming Dynasty!
Thinking of this, the four of them followed Zhu Di to the practice ground calmly.

A moment later, Zhu Di arrived at the practice ground.

But when he saw the martial artist standing under the full moon, his eyes widened! .
