Dominate the Heavens: Starting from the Foreign History of Wulin

Chapter 407: Losing the Lady and the Soldiers
Qi Changzheng and Fan Liangji were completely puzzled.

Although they did not understand the true background of Yingsanhua and Xiuse, the two knew very well that the so-called five thousand-year-old snow ginsengs were just a test from the other party. If they handed them over easily, the other party would most likely return the money and start asking for more things little by little.

Boom!

Suddenly, the speeding ship came to a sudden stop with a rumble.

Fan Liangji and Qi Changzheng's faces changed drastically.

Qi Changzheng cursed: "How on earth do you sail a boat? Why does it suddenly stop and suddenly speed away?"

At this time, Ma Xiong, the leader of the Wuchang Prefecture soldiers, came to pay respect and said, "Report to the envoy, the captain of the guards, a huge incident has occurred ahead, and it seems that there are bandits causing trouble."

"what?"

Qi Changzheng was surprised and asked, "Where did these bold pirates come from? How dare they cause chaos right under the noses of our army?"

Ma Xiong said: "The eight leaders in the lead should be the famous Eight Ghosts of Suzhou and Hangzhou. These eight people are only second-rate characters. However, they have a large number of people and a strong position in the martial arts world."

Ma Xiong surrounded Qi Changzheng and Fan Liangji and came to the bow of the ship.

Looking far away, I saw flames rising into the sky and a large number of underworld masters rushing towards a ship in the center.

Ma Xiong said, "If I am not mistaken, the ship they are attacking is the official ship of Chen Lingfang, the Flower-loving Man. This man is an official who has been dismissed for many years and has great knowledge about the appointment of officials in the court. He was summoned to the capital this time because the court is about to reorganize the six ministries. Chen Lingfang is a rare talent and is about to serve as one of the six ministers. I didn't expect that he would be assassinated by the pirates here."

"Chen Lingfang?"

Fan Liang was greatly surprised.

Fan Liang was very familiar with the name Chen Lingfang, and he also knew that Chen Lingfang had a beautiful and extraordinary concubine named Zhaoxia, who was never liked by Chen Lingfang.

About five years ago, Fan Liangji would go to Chen Lingfang's mansion every once in a while to secretly look after Zhaoxia, and secretly teach a lesson to the eldest lady and others in Chen's mansion who bullied her.

of course.

Fan Liangji had no admiration for this young and beautiful concubine. All he had was the love a father has for his daughter.

and so.

When Fan Liangji first heard what was happening, he was shocked and couldn't help but want to kill the bandits and save the people.

But he didn't expect that he wouldn't even have the chance to make a real move.

I saw a small boat sailing against the wind and waves, with only a few people rushing into the burning giant ship, and they attacked ruthlessly, killing dozens of robbers and forcing them to flee.

After a while, a man carrying a woman in red flashed out of the sea of ​​fire and appeared on the boat, looking in the direction of Fan Liangji and others.

Ma Xiong and Fan Liangji quickly drove the warship forward to meet the man in front of them and the woman they rescued.

When the boat came closer, Fan Liangji could see clearly that the man in front of him was a middle-aged man with a stern face, piercing eyes, tall and thin, and no more than 40 years old. He was wearing a green gown, with his hands behind his back, and a cold and cruel expression.

Apart from this man, the three masters following him all had extraordinary looks.

Ma Xiong stepped forward and saluted respectfully.

The middle-aged man returned the greeting and then spoke: "I am the commander of the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty, Yinfeng Lengyan. The reason why I am here this time is because I received a secret report from an informant that a murder case will happen at this moment. Someone is plotting to deal with Mr. Chen Lingfang, who is serving as an official in the court. After receiving the news, I led the experts around me to rush here. Unexpectedly, we failed at the last minute. Mr. Chen has died tragically at the hands of the pirates."

"As for this woman in red."

Lengyan looked at the young woman he had saved and said, "If I am not mistaken, this woman should be Chen Lingfang's concubine Zhaoxia. The so-called Eight Ghosts of Suzhou and Hangzhou are all evil ghosts obsessed with sex. Although they killed Chen Lingfang, they were tempted by her beauty and did not attack this girl. Fortunately, she saved her life."

"It turns out to be the famous Yin Feng Leng Yan!"

Qi Changzheng clasped his fists and saluted, then asked in a somewhat curious tone, "Commander Lengyan is well-informed and has a Jinyiwei intelligence system under him. I think he should know everything about this matter. I wonder if Commander Lengyan thinks this is just an accident or a man-made thing?"

"Of course it couldn't be an accident!"

Lengyan said bluntly: "You two must be envoys from Goguryeo, so you don't know what's going on in our Central Plains court. When Chen Lingfang was an official in the past, he was very close to Yan Wang Zhu Di, and he often complained that Zhu Yuanzhang was not worthy of being the ruler of the world. It seemed that if Zhu Yuanzhang could also rule the world, then who in the world couldn't be the emperor? This sentence was Chen Lingfang's original words."

"So, this time, the court reorganized the six ministries, and the ministers of the six ministries are powerful. If Chen Lingfang is allowed to successfully enter the capital and take over one of them, it will be very disadvantageous to Zhu Yunwen's faction, which has always been disliked by Chen Lingfang. Therefore, at this time, a group of pirates will appear to secretly kill Chen Lingfang's people."

After hearing Lengyan's analysis, everyone present realized that the case, which had originally seemed superficial, actually had such an inside story.

When he said this, Yin Feng Leng Yan couldn't help but sigh secretly.

No one here knows that Yin Feng Leng Yan is not only the commander of the Jinyiwei of the imperial court, but also the proud disciple of the magician Pang Ban who infiltrated the imperial court of the Central Plains.

however.

Not only Pang Ban couldn't think of it, even Yin Feng Lengyan himself couldn't think of it.

He sneaked into the imperial court and secretly contacted Chen Guifei Chen Yuzhen, who was stationed in the court by the Tianming Sect. As time went by, he fell in love with this direct disciple of the Tianming Sect, and he was so deeply in love with her that he could not extricate himself.

On the one hand, the teacher’s kindness is as great as a mountain.

On the other hand, she is an extremely beautiful woman.

On the one hand, Lengyan did not want to betray his master Pang Ban at all costs, and on the other hand, he would never become an enemy of the Tianming Sect led by Chen Yuzhen.

From this we can see how powerful the women of the so-called Tianming Sect are.

Chen Yuzhen is not only beautiful but also very capable.

When these two people took action, even the eldest disciple that the magic master Pang Ban was proud of began to waver.

Yin Feng Leng Yan seemed to be in great glory, but only he himself knew that his situation was extremely bad at the moment.

At present, the Zhu Yunwen faction in the court, with the help of Lu Ye, is at war with the foreign forces headed by Pang Ban, and on the other hand, it is fighting against the Yan Wang Party headed by Yan Wang Zhu Di.

In this situation.

It was natural that Zhu Yunwen and Pang Ban were incompatible.

However, even in such a situation, Yin Feng Leng Yan, one of the extraterritorial forces, actually fell in love with the genius of his enemy.

Lengyan shook his head and smiled bitterly!

Things have developed to this point, what exactly does God want him to do?

On the one hand, Yin Feng Lengyan wanted to get Chen Yuzhen, and on the other hand, he wanted to do his utmost to maintain his identity and status as the commander of the Jinyiwei.

Because he had served as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard for many years and was used to living a life of high status and power, Lengyan was unwilling to give up everything he had.

At this moment.

In Lengyan's mind, Pang Ban, Chen Yuzhen and the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard each occupied an important position, making him waver and suffer.

Before meeting Pang Ban, Lengyan had always subconsciously been inclined towards Chen Yuzhen and the Jinyiwei position given by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Fan Liangji and Qi Changzheng had no idea that Yin Feng Lengyan actually had so many thoughts in his mind.

Seeing that the other party looked worried and was very easy to talk to, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's true that seeing is believing. It is said that Lengyan is cold and cruel, but it turns out that his true image is not like that."

Fan Liangji took a look at the woman in red in front of everyone and asked in surprise, "Excuse me, Commander Lengyan, what are you going to do with this concubine of Chen Lingfang that you rescued?"

Lengyan said: "This is about an official who is about to take office. This woman is an important witness. Of course, we must go to the nearest government office to register and report the case. If the case is reported, there will be no problem. At that time, I will give her a sum of money and let her leave to make a living."

You need to know that the woman Yin Feng Lengyan likes in his heart is Chen Yuzhen, who ranks seventh among the top ten beauties in Central Plains.

Although Chen Lingfang's concubine Zhaoxia was extremely beautiful, not much inferior to Zuo Boyan's daughter Zuo Shi and Tianming Sect's Bai Fanghua, her beauty alone was not enough to catch Yin Feng Lengyan's eye.

and so.

When hearing Fan Liangji's question, Lengyan didn't care at all and bluntly stated his own way of dealing with it.

When the Nujiao Island faction and the Pangban faction gathered together and talked to each other.

suddenly.

The sound of horns was heard from afar, and a large number of elite warships surged over from all directions, led by a man in white at the bow, with a large number of elite Ming soldiers gathered around him.

"what's going on?"

Fan Liangji and Qi Changzheng's faces changed again, and they asked impatiently, "What's going on? Today's uninvited guests come one after another, it's just endless?"

Yin Feng Leng Yan's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he said, "You two must be careful. The warships coming from all directions all have the logo of the Shenwu Navy. If Leng Yan is not wrong, this time it should be the Grand Admiral of the Shenwu Navy, Hu Jie, who has come in person. Hu Jie and Hu Weiyong are known as the Hu Party, and both are undoubted supporters of Zhu Yunwen." "What?"

Qi Changzheng was shocked again.

They were just suspecting that Chen Lingfang actually died due to the conspiracy of the Taisun Party, but they did not expect that at this moment, everyone was surrounded by the forces of the Taisun Party.

Even Qi Changzheng, who was fearless and brave, couldn't help but feel creepy.

After the two groups met.

A large number of high-ranking officers of the Shenwu Navy, surrounded Lu Ye, Gu Zixian, Bai Fanghua and others, and came forward to meet Fan Liangji, Qi Changzheng, and Yin Feng Lengyan.

Lengyan looked at the person who was about to attack Lu Ye and saw a tall and fierce man in front of him, with a long sword on his waist and a majestic demeanor. It was obvious at first glance that he was a great general.

However, who could have imagined that this so-called great general was just a silver plating, good looking but useless, and had no talent in martial arts or military tactics at all.

This person is Hu Weiyong's greatest reliance outside the imperial court, the commander-in-chief of the 100,000-man Shenwu Navy, Hu Jie.

However, a high-ranking naval commander like Hu Jie was following Lu Ye respectfully like a pug.

Even Lengyan, who was very shrewd, was surprised. He stepped forward and saluted, saying, "I am Yinfeng Lengyan, the commander of the Jinyiwei. I pay my respects to Lu Shaobao and Lord Hujie!"

Lu Ye asked with a smile: "I saw the flames rising from a distance, it seems that something big has happened, so Lord Hu and I took the warship and came here with a large army. I wonder what big thing has happened?"

Lengyan once again explained what had happened before.

Lu Ye smiled and said, "So, Chen Lingfang was most likely killed by the Taisun Party, right?"

Even Yin Feng Leng Yan couldn't help but remain silent.

Are you kidding me?
In today's court and the martial arts world, who doesn't know that Lu Ye is the biggest member of the Crown Prince's party?
If we say that the Prince's party killed someone, doesn't that mean Lu Ye is the murderer?
Fan Liangji and Qi Changzheng glanced over and saw that Lu Ye, who entered the capital this time, was surrounded by many experts.

The two world-famous masters, Sword Demon Shi Zhongtian and Immortal Immortal, are all here. In addition to these two people, there are also a large number of masters on the black list and masters on the white list.

Lengyan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said respectfully, "In fact, the story of Chen Lingfang colluding with the King of Yan is completely false. Moreover, Chen Lingfang's concubine Zhaoxia is notorious for her lechery, and the Eight Ghosts of Suzhou and Hangzhou who are against them are well-known lechers in the martial arts world. Just look at the fact that the whole family died and only Zhaoxia was left. It is clear that the enemy's real target is not Chen Lingfang, but the concubine Zhaoxia."

Hu Jie sneered, "In my opinion, the truth of this case should have been revealed. I don't know when the Eight Ghosts of Suhang took a fancy to Chen Lingfang's concubine, and ambushed here. When the boat passed by, they suddenly rushed out, killed and looted. However, due to the protection of Commander Lengyan, this matter was not completely completed. And the notorious Eight Ghosts of Suhang have been killed by Commander Lengyan. It seems that this case should have been closed."

Lengyan shook his head and said nonchalantly: "Brother Hu is absolutely right. This is probably the truth of the matter."

Qi Changzheng and Fan Liangji were stunned. If they remembered correctly, Lengyan's words just now were completely different?

Why did he immediately change his statement when he saw Lu Ye?
Lu Ye turned his head and said to the generals of the Shenwu Navy around him: "The Eight Ghosts of Suzhou and Hangzhou are so bold that they dared to attack the officials of the imperial court. This matter must not be tolerated. Pass on my order and order the Liangjiang government to post a notice to hunt down the remnants of the Eight Ghosts of Suzhou and Hangzhou. At the same time..."

Lu Ye looked at Zhao Xia who was lying unconscious beside him and said, "This girl should be the most critical witness in this matter, right? Then we in the East Palace will take her away. We in the Taisun Mansion will do our best to find out the true truth of the case."

"what?"

Qi Changzheng was furious, thinking to himself, "Not only did this guy want to kill the remnants of the Suhang Eight Ghosts and silence them, but he also wanted to take the only witness away. How could a person like him give Chen Lingfang justice with such behavior?"

Lu Ye sighed slowly.

Under normal circumstances, a murderer should pay with his life, and a debtor should pay it back.

however.

When it comes to the struggles within and outside the court, how can they be completely the same?

Chen Lingfang was a very daring person. Just because he dared to say, "Even the beggar Zhu Yuanzhang could become the emperor, so who else in the world couldn't become the emperor?", he could be said to be courting death.

For Lu Ye at this moment, supporting King Yan is an unforgivable crime.

This is a good opportunity to eliminate the eight evil ghosts of Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Lu Ye thought about the matter over and over again. It would be best to solve it in this way. Apart from this, there was probably no more perfect way to deal with it.

"Somebody come!"

Without waiting for anyone to object, Lu Ye ordered someone to take the Chaoxia in front of him away.

"Wait!"

Fan Liangji had been secretly watching Zhaoxia for five years and had already decided on this daughter in his heart.

At this moment, how could I just watch her fall into the fire?
Seeing that Lu Ye seemed to want to take the person away, he couldn't help but refute.

However, Fan Liangji was an old hand after all, and he could see that the situation was extremely bad, and a head-on confrontation would be extremely disadvantageous to him. He could only soften his words and said, "Sir Lu, please wait a moment. What I, Park Jung-tae, love most in my life is making friends. Today, I met a great man like Sir Lu, and it can be said that we hit it off right away. It shows that Sir is my destined confidant."

"Master Lu, I have a rare treasure in the world to present to you."

The King of Thieves took out a booklet from his body with a painful look on his face, secretly put the booklet in Lu Ye's hand, and said: "Your Excellency may not know that this treasure I accidentally obtained was left by the previous generation's master, the Flower Master Hou Xibai. It is an extremely wonderful secret play of 18 beauties, whether it is the painting skills or the postures, it is extremely wonderful. If your Excellency wants to watch it, it is best to watch it in the dead of night."

Lu Ye opened it and took a look, and it was exactly as he had guessed.

It is indeed a secret book left by Hou Xibai, a previous generation. On each page of the secret book, there is a secret picture of a beauty, and the face and shape of the beauty are naturally the same. However, the 18 pictures have different postures. Hou Xibai, with his extremely powerful painting skills, perfectly shows the moving parts of various women, and at the same time, they are naked. It is indeed a top-notch work of ancient secret books.

Fan Liangji, the king of thieves, also spent a huge price to obtain such a treasure. He kept it close to him and regarded it as his most precious treasure.

but!

Today, for the morning glow, I am willing to give everything.

Lu Ye took a quick look at it, put the secret map in his hand away, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Master Lu!"

Suddenly, Fan Liangji spoke up as expected: "Since we are already good friends, then if a good friend is in trouble, should Brother Lu help him? The thing is, I don't have any other hobbies in my life, but there is one thing, that is, I am greedy for beauty. It's okay for ordinary women, but I have never seen an outstanding beauty like Zhaoxia in my life. You know, sir."

Lu Ye said indifferently, "I have heard that Goguryeo is a land of beauties. Mr. Park was born in Goguryeo, how could he have never seen a beauty? However, I am sorry that I cannot comply with your request. I am a woman from the Central Plains. How can I commit myself to two such people unless I have no choice? Envoy Park, Captain Park, we will see you another day!"

As he was speaking, Lu Ye left first.

Hu Jie, who was following him, said loudly, "In order to prevent the Suzhou and Hangzhou Eight Ghosts from happening again, Lu Shaobao and the warships of our Shenwu Navy will follow you from now on. The envoy can rest assured that you will never encounter any danger from here to the capital."

After saying this, Hu Jie laughed out loud and turned away.

……

Fan Liangji was stunned.

After he realized what was happening, he couldn't help but curse.

"Fuck that bastard Lu Ye!"

Fan Liangji cursed endlessly, "You took Hou Xibai's beautiful secret play that I have treasured for many years, but you turned your face against me. You took the things, but you won't let me go?"

Qi Changzheng said indifferently: "Although it's just the first time we met, I, Qi, already know what kind of person Lu Ye is. He has foresight and will do anything to achieve his goals."

"Based on his intelligence and means, what you, Fan Liangji, did, in his eyes, was like a boy wielding a knife. It was not worth mentioning. As early as the first time you came forward, he saw through all your actions. Since he was destined to be hostile, how could he give you the slightest chance? In my opinion, you should not have given him any gifts in the beginning. Now you have lost both the wife and the army."

"Ugh!"

Fan Liangji couldn't help but sigh repeatedly.

Yin Feng Leng Yan sat beside him and spoke a few words of comfort from time to time.

……

Lu Ye's cabin.

Lu Ye put the Beauty's Secret Play away. Although he had no use for this thing and it seemed to have no value, it was, after all, one of the few secret treasures in the world. If he kept it with him, he might find it useful someday.

Lu Ye, Gu Zixian and the others looked towards the morning glow together.

Gu Zixian hesitated and asked, "Why did Lu Lang go to such great lengths to save this woman? Could it be that he has taken a fancy to this woman and wants to take her as a concubine?"

"How can this be?"

Lu Ye said: "This woman is very weak and has no martial arts foundation. The only redeeming feature is that she is very pretty. I pity her miserable life, so let her stay with Zixian. Xian'er will teach her some self-defense martial arts and treat her as a sister. I hope she can live a peaceful and happy life in the second half of her life!"
