Retrograde for thousands of years

Chapter 81 If something happens, I will bear it
If someone does something treacherous and you watch without caring, what will be the result?
Liu Jin's heart seemed to have fallen into ice.

The Sky Prison is a very tightly guarded place. There are too many secrets held here. The guards are very tight on weekdays. Even a fly will be scrutinized, let alone a table of food.

As for Zhou Huan's high-profile actions, no matter how much he conceals them, they will be discovered later, and this can only mean one thing, that is, there is no need to cover up the matter.

A person who is stared at by hundreds of civil and military officials, and a person who is paid attention to by the emperor, is as easy as entering and exiting the prison in his own courtyard. If this kind of thing is revealed, I don’t know how many people will lose their heads!

This is even more powerful than Chen Yunying's killing of the court official, because it represents the infiltration of an organization into the court.

"Eunuch Liu, thank you for coming to visit me in the prison, what can you do?"

Zhou Huan's words made Liu Jin smile bitterly.

"Your Majesty asked me to come and see you and give you a message so that you can reflect on your situation in the prison for a while."

"What?"

"Lower your head and admit your mistake. It's not a big deal."

"So it is."

Zhou Huan's eyes fell on Su Qiaoer and asked, "What's the point of Miss Su coming to the prison?"

"My uncle wants to ask if you know you are wrong? He wants to help you, but you must first understand where you are wrong."

Su Qiaoer also took the risk at this time. Liu Jin might be able to survive, but she would never be spared.

"You know you were wrong, admit it?"

Zhou Huan also smiled, and his smile was very bright.

"I really don't know what I did wrong. After I arrived in the capital, I abided by the law, ran my business reasonably, and paid taxes according to the regulations. Even the money I gave to your members was a penny."

After saying this, Zhou Huanzai ignored Su Qiaoer's thoughts and stood up. At this time, footsteps were heard in the distance. The visitor quickly arrived in front of the restaurant room without any special cover-up.

Ten people came, including monks and Taoists, scholars and businessmen, young girls, and brave warriors. They glanced at Liu Jin and Su Qiaoer, and then saluted Zhou Huan together.

Liu Jin and Su Waner on the side were stunned, because they all knew these nine people. They were the leading figures of the nine sects. Some of these sects were incompatible with each other, and some would never meet, but today, they came here.

Among them, if five people gather together, it means something big has happened, but if nine people appear together peacefully, it is almost impossible.

These are the nine sects.

The nine sects that are regarded as thorns in the eyes of the court, the nine sects that can turn the world upside down.

Fortunately, the nine sects all abide by the rules. They are called famous and upright sects. They are much better than the princes in some places. They also abide by the laws and regulations on weekdays, and they pay no less money and food to the court.

But this does not mean that there are no conflicts between the nine sects and the imperial court. On the contrary, the conflicts are huge.

There are always some people who are forced by the government to join the nine sects and then go back to take revenge. There are always some officials who set their sights on the properties of the nine sects. There are always people who are beheaded by the government because of irreconcilable conflicts of interests. The top leaders of the nine sects.

But in any case, for more than 100 years, the Nine sects have been suppressed by the government, so that the court had an illusion that the Nine sects did not dare to rebel, for fear that their bottles and jars would be smashed, etc. .

But is this really the case?
In Zhou Huan's world, most of the rebels are dozens of people, or even a few farmers who can't survive. Rebellion does not care about strength, but first of all, courage.

Successful rebellions begin with organizations. So, do the leaders of those organizations care about the smashing of bottles and cans?
No, what they lose is just their shackles. If they succeed, they will gain the whole world.

A force needs to keep making progress and provide better vision to the people below. Many organizations have been rushing to rebel from the beginning, and only these organizations can expand rapidly.

Each of the nine sects has masters like clouds, thousands of direct disciples, local princes who control millions of people, and their mobilization capabilities are far stronger than the imperial court. In Zhou Huan's world, such a force would have rebelled long ago.

Look at Liu Bang, the Three Kingdoms, the Tang and Song Dynasties, etc. How many people did those Taizu have when they raised armies?And how many of those who practice martial arts are not strong-blooded people who are indifferent to life and death?
What could really hold them down was Mrs. Tang's sword.

A sword flashed through the fourteen states. Madam Tang suppressed the nine sects with incomparable fear and asked them to abide by the laws. However, those civil servants, including the Confucian sects, thought that the nine sects were sheep, and gentlemen could bully them all day long. It's like planning how to divide and disintegrate the nine sects and how to better eliminate the warriors.

The smile on Su Qiaoer's face was a little stiff, and he wanted to say something but didn't say it.

Zhou Huan sat at the head of the table, and the masters of the nine sects took their seats one by one. The only middleman was Huangfu Song, a well-known Jiuding gentleman in the world.Even Mrs. Tang once praised his reputation and character, saying that he would never lie about the things he witnessed.

The scene of these eleven people sitting down reminded Su Qiaoer of an ancient painting, Alliance of Jincheng.

200 years ago, Grand Master Zhou Huan was born, and he had a very high prestige in the government and the public. If he had taken another step forward at that time, he might have become the world leader. However, Grand Master Zhou Huan gave up his personal ambition and retired to the mountains and forests with Princess Pingyang.

Before leaving, Zhou Huan, Princess Pingyang and his subordinates concluded an alliance in Jincheng.

Zhou Huan said that he guarantees the safety of his subordinates' personal life and property. If they are maliciously harmed or murdered, Zhou Huan will definitely go out and kill the murderer. His subordinates will cooperate with the imperial court to dominate the world, and will no longer persuade Zhou Huan to wear a yellow robe, nor will they consider rebellion. Start a business.

That dinner was the last swan song. The founders and grandmasters of the nine martial arts sects drank heartily, including the founders of the four major aristocratic families and the Demon Sect, all appeared in the painting.

Thirty years later, Princess Pingyang ascended to the throne of God because of the full support of those subordinates. Later, the reason why Aunt Tang was able to dominate the world was also because the elders of many sects remembered their past feelings and fully assisted Aunt Tang.

After those old people of her generation died, Aunt Tang also passed through the most dangerous moment. Her martial arts reached its peak and she had no rivals in the world. But even so, Aunt Tang still had a close relationship with the Nine Sects, or perhaps Secret Covenant.

"Mr. Wang, thank you very much for this. Now the original is returned."

The person who spoke was the Shaolin Astronomical Master. He respectfully delivered a cloth bag in front of Zhou Huan. It was not that he was respectful to Zhou Huan, but that he was respectful to the object.

Inside the cloth bag is a light red bracelet. Made of thousands of years of warm jade, this bracelet can keep the wearer warm in winter and cool in summer, and prolong life. In the scroll of the Jincheng League, Princess Pingyang wears it on her wrist.

It was the trophy that Zhou Huan got from Murong Tieqi after he killed him. He then gave this object to Princess Pingyang. From then on, Princess Pingyang always carried this object with her.

Zhou Huan found this unique treasure in Princess Pingyang's tomb when he woke up. He took it with him when he came to the capital. He then stored it somewhere and now took it out.

After Master Qingjing entered the Heavenly Prison that day, Zhou Huan asked him if he could save himself from the Heavenly Prison?

Taoist Taoist Qingjing said it was impossible. The Wudang Sect could at most ensure that Zhou Huan would not suffer much in prison, but if they robbed the prison or used legal means to get Zhou Huan out, the former would cost too much, and the Wudang Sect would not be able to challenge the court head-on. The latter would be even more difficult. Needless to say, there was no hope.

The Wudang School can't do it, what about the Nine Gates School?

Zhou Huan asked Master Qingjing to send a message to the Nine Sects and told him two things.

First, his identity is a descendant of the great master Zhou Huan, and he has a token to prove it.

Second, Chen Yunying is a disciple trained by Aunt Tang. No matter what method the Nine Sects use to rescue him from the prison, he can convince Aunt Tang to ignore the matter.

Many people were puzzled by what happened in the trial, because the sword madman Chen Yunying should not have fallen in love with a man so quickly. But after hearing Zhou Huan's rumors and seeing the token of the great master Zhou Huan, everyone in the nine sects suddenly understood. Cheerful.

No wonder Chen Yunying's martial arts is so high, no wonder Zhou Huan can win Chen Yunying's heart. This is a typical arranged marriage. Aunt Tang had a crush on the great master Zhou Huan, and after accepting her apprentice Chen Yunying, she married Chen Yunying to the great master Zhou. Huan's descendants are not surprising at all.

As for the theory that Grand Master Zhou Huan and Princess Pingyang have no descendants in history, people present all said that Zhou Huan’s face is the best evidence. The nine sects all have portraits of Grand Master Zhou Huan. This face has not been touched by a knife. And the nine-point statue of the great master Zhou Huan!
There are many people in the nine sects who are afraid of harming their descendants and not allowing them to inherit the family business. It is not uncommon for their descendants to hide their names and become wealthy people elsewhere, isn't it?
Fifteen days have passed. During these fifteen days, Zhou Huan silently waited for the decision of the nine sects, and then looked boredly at the disciples of high-ranking officials and dignitaries who formed a group to slay him.

Eleven people sat at the table, eating the dishes as if they were drinking water. They were all very harmonious, and there was no trace of the friendship that was causing trouble in private. While eating, the people from the nine sects asked some inconspicuous questions. Questions, including some from 200 years ago.

Zhou Huan's answer was very smooth and very satisfying to these people, which further proved Zhou Huan's identity.

"My little friend, have you decided on this matter?"

A gray-haired old man asked.

"I just have some traces of my ancestors, how can I order you? Everything is free, you can do whatever you want, that's all."

"Are you really sure about Aunt Tang?"

"I have never met Aunt Tang, but my ancestors left something behind that can convince her. All she needs to do is let me meet Aunt Tang. If you have any news about Aunt Tang, please let me know."

"Are you sure that Mrs. Tang won't be outraged by our actions?"

"You can't burn the capital to ashes, right? If something goes wrong, I'll be responsible for it."

Zhou Huan said calmly. There was no trace of smile in the eyes of either him or the ten people present, only the blazing fire was burning.
