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

Chapter 61 Fourth Master Zhu: I need more money!

Fourth Master Zhu and Mao Xiang went downstairs, planning to find a pub to have a few drinks.

A famous guard in royal robes hurried forward and reported nervously: "Sir, it's not good, Li Siqi's mansion is on fire."

"Let's go and take a look." Mao Xiang waved.

Fourth Master Zhu knew that Li Siqi was the surrendered general. Once upon a time, he was also a man of great influence. He was as famous as Wang Baobao and the leader of the Guanzhong alliance.

The two men immediately got on their horses and hurried to Li Mansion.

They galloped on their horses, and when they were still some distance away from Li's Mansion, they could already see the sky dyed red by the fire in the distance. The flames shot up high, and the billowing smoke was accompanied by sparks flying everywhere, drawing twisted trajectories in the night sky.

When they finally arrived at Li's mansion, they saw that the entire mansion was surrounded by raging fire. The tongues of fire wildly devoured everything that was combustible, making crackling sounds.

The heat wave is rolling in, and even from a distance, you can feel the scorching temperature. The roar of the flames and the cracking of the wood were thrilling.

"Where is Li Siqi?" Mao Xiang asked anxiously.

"Didn't come out." Jin Yiwei reported truthfully, with a look of helplessness on his face, "But we can't go in to save people."

"Have you found any suspicious characters?" Mao Xiang asked.

Jin Yiwei smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Fourth Master Zhu frowned. Such a big fire was definitely caused by arson. The strange thing was that there was no movement at all in the mansion.

An hour later.

After the fire was extinguished, Jin Yiwei discovered four charred corpses, all of which could not be identified.

"Although Li Siqi is a surrendered general, he was once the leader of the Guanzhong alliance. The hundreds of thousands of troops who surrendered in Guanzhong regard him as the leader and have great influence." A cold light flashed in Mao Xiang's eyes, "Someone must be trying to cause trouble."

He looked solemn, said a few words, and hurried into the palace.

……

Fourth Master Zhu was sitting on the back of a tall horse. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, looking around every corner.

An indescribable premonition rose in his heart, and he vaguely felt that the person who set the fire might be hiding somewhere, watching the fire with cold eyes.

Suddenly, he moved and shot toward the house opposite like an arrow from a string.

The moment he soared into the air, the six-foot-long sword in his hand came out of its sheath, and a brilliant sword light swept out, lighting up the dark night sky.

A man in black stood on the roof of a house, locked by the sudden sword light, and turned pale in horror. Without any time to think, he turned around and rushed down.

However, the moment he landed on the ground and made a rolling movement, the bright sword light fell down like a shadow.

There was only a loud noise, and a deep crack opened in the ground instantly.

The man in black only felt a numbness on his back. He jumped up and turned into a shadow and fled quickly.

Fourth Master Zhu landed firmly on the ground with a six-foot-long knife in his hand, his eyes firmly fixed on the fleeing black figure.

"Where to escape!"

He shouted loudly, clenching the long knife in his hand, and the muscles all over his body bulged.

call out!
The extremely sharp sword light shot through the air, and wherever it passed, the void seemed to be cracked, and the strong wind brought by the sword light roared past, making people shudder.

scold!
The back of the man in black was scratched by the sword, and blood poured out, instantly dyeing his clothes red.

"Ah!" The man in black screamed and fell down.

At this moment, a man in black robe appeared out of thin air, grabbed the man in black, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Fourth Master Zhu looked around cautiously.

This black-robed body technique was so fast that he didn't even have time to lock onto it.

"It seems that I need to practice some Qing Kung Fu." He gritted his teeth.

……

In the Huitong Hall, the night is dark.

Two figures flew down in front of the eldest princess's room. Augu, who was wearing a black robe, was supporting a woman in black. The woman's face was as pale as paper, and there was cold sweat on her forehead. She was obviously suffering from great pain. On her back, a hideous wound was oozing blood, staining her clothes red.

"Shajia, do you know how powerful Fourth Master Zhu is this time?" Ao Gu's tone was somewhat cold, seeming to be reproaching, but also seeming to be reminding.

Since her last fight with Fourth Master Zhu, she has never dared to look down upon him again.

"I was wrong." There was still a look of fear in Sharjah's eyes, "If you hadn't come in time tonight, I would have died."

In her mind, the dazzling sword light lingered.

Ao Gu didn't say anything more. She quickly treated Sha Jia's wounds with skillful and gentle techniques.

While bandaging, she said: "You are one of the four great masters in the grassland, but this Fourth Master Zhu is comparable to the national master."

Hearing this, Sha Jia showed an even more regretful look on his face: "After killing Li Siqi tonight and setting the fire, I should leave. But now, I'm afraid that Fourth Master Zhu will follow the clues and find out any clues about us."

"Hmph, that doesn't matter."

Ao Gu's lips curved into a sneer, "What we want is chaos to attract the attention of Jin Yiwei. In this way, we can do our own thing secretly."

"By the way, I saw that Fourth Master Zhu came with the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Mao Xiang." Sha Jia frowned.

"It's normal. A mafia giant like Fourth Master Zhu must have someone in the court." Ao Gu's eyes were cold, "It's just that I didn't expect that there was a Jin Yiwei behind him."

"What to do next?" Sharjah asked.

"Take good care of yourself and never show up again." Ao Gu chuckled, "The traitor Li Siqi is dead, and the Ming court is very busy."

……

The next day, it started to rain.

Jin Yiwei was dispatched everywhere, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Fourth Master Zhu had nothing to do with himself and just got up early to go fishing with Zhu Di.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Di had gone out a long time ago and was helping his Zhatian recently.

Fourth Master Zhu put on his raincoat, rowed a small boat, and took his fishing rod to the middle of the Qinhuai River.

At this moment, light rain fell in patter.

Don't listen to the sound of Lin knocking leaves, why not scream and walk slowly.Who's afraid of bamboo stick shoes lighter than horses?Ren Pingsheng was born in a misty rain.

What you want is this artistic conception.

Mr. Zhu was sitting on the penetrating fishing boat. An exquisite painting boat was slowly approaching. A woman in black robe was standing on the bow of the boat, holding an umbrella. The black robe was close to the body, outlining perfect curves and protruding various parts at the same time. Outline.

"Fourth Master." The woman in black robe shouted.

"Is it you?" Fourth Master Zhu raised his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

It was the woman who visited that night and claimed to be Daru Huachi.

"I came to see Fourth Master for help today." The black-robed woman chuckled, "Have you ever heard of Chang Yuchun? I'll hire you to kill him."

"What?" Fourth Master Zhu stood up suddenly, "You actually asked me to help you scout Ma Junsi to kill our Ming Dynasty general?"

"Haha, Fourth Master also cares about this?"

The beautiful eyes of the woman in black robe were smiling, with a hint of sarcasm, "I heard that Fourth Master, you have offended several generals in the imperial court. I think they will not let you go, Fourth Master. I can give you enough." There is more money than you can imagine."

"Girl, you misunderstood."

Fourth Master Zhu raised his head with a look of sorrow on his face, "Chang Yuchun is the pillar of the Ming Dynasty..."

He paused and said word by word:

"Got-plus-money!"

　Please give me a monthly ticket, please bosses!
