Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 407 Mingjiao
Zhao Mu still doesn't know that he has been involved in a whirlpool of power.

He also fantasized about taking over Xixia and living in the Xixia Palace with his beauties in the future. Then he would retire after success and become a carefree and idle prince.

As everyone knows, he is now standing at the center of this maelstrom.

At present, all forces are staring at him, and Zhe Zong is paving the way for him.

The nobles of the Taizong lineage headed by the Empress Dowager, as well as the old forces such as Sima Guang, are also eyeing Zhao Mu. Once Zhao Mu has something in their hands, they will find a way to bring him down. Although they will not destroy the Great Wall, at least they will not allow Zhao Mu to have the power he has today.

And in the darkness, there is an alliance of forces staring at him.

After Zhao Mu left the palace, he got on his royal chariot and headed towards Prince Qi's Mansion.

While passing by a street, a middle-aged man, a young man, a Hu woman, and a woman wearing a black bamboo hat sat together in the upstairs of a teahouse and watched his car drive. Walking through the street.

Zhao Mu was passing by this bustling street. He also opened the car curtain and looked outside. His move also happened to fall into the eyes of the young man.

The young man leaned against the window and looked at Zhao Mu and said, "He is the King Qi who beat you Liao people to a pulp. I think his age is not much different from mine. Is he really that powerful?"

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the five surnames and Seven Hopes lived in temples, and the poor families had no way out. Huang Chao, the first leader of the Mingjiao in China, once naively wanted to change the country through the imperial examination.

At this time, the Hu woman beside him also said: "Yes, Thirteen. I have seen his strength with my own eyes. I don't know much about Xiao Yuanshan, but the Great Wheel Ming King is a famous Buddhist master in the Western Regions. Regardless of His Buddhist attainments and martial arts skills are both top-notch. Even the leader of the cult once went to Daxueshan Dalun Temple to listen to his sermons and practice martial arts. But such a top master didn’t even get through ten moves under King Qi, and that’s even when he teamed up with Xiao Yuanshan.”

The true independence of the Ming Cult in China, no longer subject to the orders of the Persian Archbishop, began with the first leader Huang Chao.

It was late autumn, and after Huang Chao failed to pass the exam, he wrote the poem "Ode to Chrysanthemums after Not Ranking" to express his inner resentment.

It was after that time that Huang Chao finally let go of his childish fantasies. After returning to his hometown, he summoned the Mingjiao followers disguised as fish and salt traders and launched the first uprising of the Mingjiao in Middle-earth. Known as the "Huangchao Rebellion" in history.

At this time, the woman wearing a black gauze bamboo hat also slowly took off her own bamboo hat. She continued: "Master Fang, don't underestimate King Qi. Our Daliao cavalry is famous all over the world, but under this King Qi In front of His Highness, they were like clay. The martial arts of General Xiao and Yuan Shan Gong were the best in our country. The fact that one of them was captured alive and the other was killed is enough to show how terrifying King Qi is. "

It has been hundreds of years since Mingjiao was introduced to China in the Tang Dynasty. But the first few generations of Mingjiao leaders were all Persians.

The young man named Fang Shisan took off the handful of grass he was holding in his mouth, and he no longer acted carelessly. He looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Master, what do you think?"

The middle-aged man did not speak, but he was deep in memories.

But the middle-aged man sitting next to the young man said: "Haha, a person's strength cannot be judged by his appearance alone. Ding Chunqiu's strength is not bad, but Ding Chunqiu has not gone through three years under him. Five rounds. From the descriptions of Her Royal Highness and Pasha, his strength can be said to be terrifying! "Although this man looks Chinese, his accent is quite lame.

I went to Chang'an several times to take the exam, but because I came from a humble background, my surname was not among the five surnames, and my people were not among the seven. Not to mention friends from these powerful families. Although he has the talent of economics and the ability to help the world, he has the means to stabilize the country. But there is always no way to serve the country. He wanted to save the Tang Dynasty, which was ruled by feudal lords, but the world did not give him a chance.

In the end, Huang Chao led his army to conquer Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and massacred the city. The Five Surnames and Seven Hopes fell from then on. The aristocratic families that had been established since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty were completely eradicated by Huang Chao's uprising.

That was also the greatest achievement achieved by Ming Zun leaders in the past dynasties.

Huang Chao also proclaimed himself emperor in the Daming Palace in Chang'an, calling himself "Emperor of Da Qi" and changing his reign title to "Jin Tong". Although the Huangchao Uprising achieved great results, it also laid huge hidden dangers. Because most of the Mingjiao disciples at that time were bad disciples, they caused countless complaints from the people. In the end, Huang Chao's subordinate Zhu Wen rebelled, betrayed Huang Chao, and joined forces with the Tang army to launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against the Mingjiao disciples.

And the Mingjiao's most vigorous uprising ended just like this. Since then, the Mingjiao's vitality has been severely damaged, and it has retreated to Guangmingding in the Western Region, and has not been able to come out since then.

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Mingjiao also dreamed of making a comeback. But it was stopped by one person on his own.

This person is the founder of the Xiaoyao sect, Xiaoyaozi.

At that time, Xiaoyaozi left Hangu Pass in the west and finally came to the Western Regions.

When he settled in Lingjiu Palace, he heard that the Ming Cult had disloyal intentions.

At that time, Li Siyuan was in power, the politics were enlightened, and there was an end to war in the Central Plains.

Xiaoyaozi did not want the people to suffer again, so he single-handedly fought back the Mingjiao's second eastern expedition in front of Yumen Pass. The Ming Cult masters suffered heavy casualties and were no longer able to compete.

But in the generation of this middle-aged man's master, Xiaoyaozi has died, and Wuyazi, the head of the Xiaoyao sect, has run away with his junior sister Li Qiushui. The Tianshan child's grandmother has always been conceited and does not bother to care about human affairs.

Therefore, Mingjiao took another opportunity.

After several years of planning, they instigated the King of Xixia to launch a war against the Song Dynasty. They wanted to use this act of righteousness to return to China with Xixia.

When his master wanted to take advantage of the war between Xixia and Song Dynasty to cause trouble, the appearance of a woman and a general made the Mingjiao's plan to return to the Central Plains go bankrupt.

The general's name was Di Qing, and the woman was Li Canghai.

At the beginning, the Mingjiao followers instigated Li Yuanhao, the leader of the Xixia Kingdom, to seize the Song Dynasty from the east.

At first, Li Yuanhao was so unstoppable that even the famous Song Dynasty general Yang Zongbao was defeated.

Just when the Xixia Kingdom was about to knock on the door of the Song Dynasty. However, the Xixia army encountered the strongest resistance from the Song Dynasty. The general who commanded the Song army's resistance was Di Qing.

And when the masters of Mingjiao were about to assassinate Di Qing and reverse the situation of the war.

Li Canghai of Xiaoyao Sect appeared, and she used the same unique skills as Xiaoyaozi, killing all the masters of Mingjiao without leaving any trace behind. Among them were those who besieged King Zhao De of Dongping in Yingchou Gorge.

But now, the Xiaoyao Sect has once again blocked the way for their Ming Cult to return to the Central Plains. Still using that special skill.

After all, he will never forget in his life how his master, the leader of the Ming Cult of the previous generation, died tragically in the hands of Li Canghai.

And now it's the Xiaoyao Sect. In the eyes of this middle-aged man, this is a bit too much.
