Ming Dynasty: The ghost betrays the Confucian sage, my son Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 5 Zhu Chongba’s official position is not worthy of a dog.
Fourth Master Zhu was engrossed in reading, and the Book of Luck in his mind emitted a faint light.

Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the yard with the food box and was stunned.

He felt that an invisible aura gradually condensed around Fourth Master Zhu. The aura was pure and powerful, like a clear spring in a mountain stream, washing away the dust.

"Haoran Qi?" He was surprised and confused.

The legendary Confucian awe-inspiring spirit has always existed in legends.

Zhu Yuanzhang had met many great scholars, including Liu Ji from Qingtian, Zhang Yi from Longquan, Ye Chen from Lishui, and Song Lian from Pujiang.

The four masters in eastern Zhejiang and the great scholars of the time all assisted him.

But he had never felt such awe-inspiring energy from these four people.

"Perhaps for hitting the thief's wat, the upside-down head will be broken. This is the majestic Qi, which will last forever. When it penetrates the sun and the moon, life and death will be settled."

Fourth Master Zhu was immersed in reading.

Suddenly, the destiny book in his mind lit up, and a sword technique was imprinted on his mind.

This sword is called the sword of heaven and earth.

"Is this a reward?" Fourth Master Zhu stopped reading and was confused.

Only then did he notice Zhu Yuanzhang standing not far away, and hurriedly waved: "Eight Lang, what are you doing standing there? Come on, I'm hungry."

Zhu Yuanzhang reacted, came to Fourth Master Zhu with a food box, opened the food box, and found porridge and sesame cakes inside.

The two ate it with great relish.

"Fourth Master, are you studying so diligently because you want to get fame?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"It's a crap test!" Mr. Zhu said with disdain while chewing, "Zhu Chongba's official position is not worthy of a dog. Ba Lang, I advise you to go back to your place, or you will mess with me and become a crap officer. "

"???" Zhu Yuanzhang almost choked to death after a mouthful of sesame cake stuck in his throat, "Why are you scolding the emperor? Why can't you be an official of the emperor?"

"The current emperor is so headstrong that he can still be fine now that the country has just been founded." Fourth Master Zhu wiped his mouth and said, "When the world is stable, it will be another matter."

"When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden; when the cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooked?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, "Probably not."

"Not only for this reason, but also because the emperor has been persecuted by corrupt officials since he was a child." Zhu Siye wiped his hands and said, "From the bottom of his heart, he doesn't believe these officials at all, especially the group who founded the country. , if it stabilizes, he will definitely go on a killing spree and replace a new batch."

Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was filled with turmoil.

Because Fourth Master Zhu was right, he really did not believe in this group of officials in the DPRK. He had long wanted to replace them with a group of obedient courtiers who had no foundation.

"I finished eating and went to the Beggar's Gang." Fourth Master Zhu stood up and said, "I will come back for a drink in the evening."

"I guess it won't work tonight. We're on duty." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"That will happen another day." Fourth Master Zhu laughed and left.

Zhu Yuanzhang was alone in a daze for a while before walking out of the yard.

When they came to the street, the Jin Yiwei Mao Xiang followed him: "Your Majesty, after Fourth Master Zhu annexed the Nujiao Gang, he approached Zhu Shou, the water transport envoy. They should have formed an alliance."

"Zhu Shou? Is he the one following Lan Yu?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

"Yes, he is now the water transport envoy, supervising water transport." Mao Xiang said, "The fourth master Zhu should do the shipping through him."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

It seems that this old man has great ambitions. He will first find a backer in the imperial court, and then start to annex the secret forces in the capital.

However, the dark forces in the capital were not as simple as he imagined.

"We are looking forward to it." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, "You keep an eye on it, but don't interfere."

Mao Xiangzhao ordered.

……

The west bank of Xuanwu Lake is opposite the Beggar Clan main altar.

Dozens of large ships were docked at the shore. From the ships to the dock, hundreds of men in Tsing Yi came and went, busy loading and unloading.

Fourth Master Zhu stood on the shore, looking at the big boat on the lake with envy on his face.

These are all boats from the Yulong Gang, which are larger than the boats from the Nu Jiao Gang. They can move freely on the lake and advance and retreat in an orderly manner.

Among them was a large one, several feet high, decorated with red paint, and could hold at least a thousand people.

"The Yulong Gang is really a big business." He muttered.

Then, he turned around and walked towards the main altar of the Yulong Gang. When he reached the door, he was stopped by two guards.

"Old man, who are you looking for?" the guard asked.

"Please inform me that Mr. Zhu from the Beggar Clan is here to meet with Zhang, the leader of the Yulong Clan." He raised his hands and clasped his fists.

"Fourth Master Zhu?" The guard was shocked. The recent news about the murder of the leader of the Nujiao Clan has spread, and everyone knows that he was killed in the street by Master Zhu Si, the leader of the Beggar Clan.

Strangely, the court made no move.

The Yulong Gang wanted to seize the opportunity to take over the Nujiao Gang's territory and sent people to assassinate Master Zhu. Although this matter did not spread, the whole Yulong Gang regarded the Beggar Gang as their formidable enemy.

Both gangs are looking for a living in Xuanwu Lake, and they will run into each other sooner or later.

Unexpectedly, the leader of the Beggar Clan took the initiative to come to our door.

"Fourth Master, are you here alone?" The guard looked warily.

Another guard rushed in to report.

Fourth Master Zhu smiled coldly: "I will go to the meeting alone. It depends on whether your gang leader has the guts to meet me."

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of people rushed out from inside.

The leader is a middle-aged burly man, walking like a dragon and a tiger, with a very majestic appearance.

"Are you Fourth Master Zhu?" The burly man stopped in front of Fourth Master Zhu.

"That's me." Fourth Master Zhu raised his hands and clasped his fists, "Are you Gang Leader Zhang?"

He felt a strong murderous aura. This gang leader had definitely been on the battlefield. Only people who crawled out of the dead could have this cold and biting murderous aura.

……

"He's a man who came to the door with a single sword." Gang leader Zhang snorted coldly, "I heard that Fourth Master, you are very good with swordsmanship. You killed Lang Feiyun with one sword. I'm a junior, please give me some advice."

As he spoke, he drew out his long knife and pointed it at Fourth Master Zhu.

"You are barely worthy of fighting with me." Fourth Master Zhu unsheathed his sword, "Forget it, I will give you some advice today."

Finally met a master, his eyes were burning with fierce fighting spirit.

The long sword emits a blazing light, like the emperor among swords.

"Hmph, old man, don't be too angry." Gang Leader Zhang shouted violently.

A tower-like body, standing majestic, with an excited and wild expression. This feeling has been absent for a long time.

Fourth Master Zhu's sword energy completely inspired his fighting spirit.

In an instant, both of them moved, and two brilliant sword lights flashed past.

Two peerless swordsmen, as fast as lightning, exchanged blades for the first blow.

The violent sword energy fluctuated and scattered, the surrounding flowers and grass were broken, and dust was flying.

The people around were stunned and backed away.

"Old man, can you still bear this sword attack?" Gang leader Zhang's eyes widened and his momentum was like a rainbow.

"That's it? Today's young people are really useless." Fourth Master Zhu's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

The two looked at each other like lightning.

"Come again!"

"Come on!"

The two men drew their swords and killed them.

clang!
Double sword collision!

The wind and clouds around us rolled back, and sand and rocks flew everywhere.

"Oops, the gang leader can't bear it anymore."

"Then Fourth Master Zhu's sword energy suddenly surged, unexpectedly... unexpectedly..."

At this moment, on the field.

Leader Zhang of the Fish Dragon Gang had one foot stuck in the pit, his face full of horror.

Fourth Master Zhu held the knife in one hand, pressed it upwards and downwards, and put the long knife on Gang Leader Zhang's neck.

"Junior loses!" Gang Leader Zhang gritted his teeth, "If you want to kill or behead me, please do as you please."

The surrounding members of the Yulong Gang were shocked when they heard this. They all drew their swords and surrounded him.

Gang leader Zhang roared: "Get out of the way! A true man, if you lose, you lose. Our Yulong Gang will never bully the minority with more."

Fourth Master Zhu grinned and took back the long knife.
