The Most Powerful Man in the World

In order to make King Ning feel more at ease with them, they took the initiative to keep their family members in Nanchang City as hostages, which can be said to be a tacit understanding between them and King Ning.

But now that Nanchang City has fallen, and all their relatives have fallen into the hands of the imperial court, how can they accept it for a while.

Now Yang Tinghe actually said that it is not impossible to pay some price. Is it not obvious that they have directly abandoned their relatives?

It's just that no matter how angry they are in their hearts, it's not easy to say it directly. It's okay to be angry, but once they say it, they will definitely be seen by King Ning. At that time, there will definitely be grudges in King Ning's heart, and that's a loss. The lady is fighting again.

King Ning saw the reaction of everyone's expressions in his eyes, and said slowly: "Don't worry, all the ministers, I will send someone to discuss with Zhengde Xiaoer, and no matter what the cost, we will definitely save everyone's relatives."

Although there is no hope of reporting, but King Ning said so, at least it is not a glimmer of hope, in case Zhu Houzhao faints, he will really return his family to them!

The depressed King Ning was about to return to the harem to rest, and before he had time to open his mouth to let everyone disperse, he saw a servant walk into the hall with a little panic and said, "Your Majesty, General Ancestor asks to see you!"

King Ning couldn't help but change his face when he heard the words. Zu Jiang was the admiral of the navy appointed by him. He was in charge of the defense on the river. It could be said to be the outer barrier of Nanjing City.

At this moment, Zu Jiang came to ask for a meeting, something must have happened.

"pass!"

Soon I saw the embarrassed Zu Jiang entering the hall, and bowed down in front of the hall with a thud: "Chen Zu Jiang pays homage to Your Majesty!"

Looking at Zu Jiang's embarrassed appearance, King Ning had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, and looked at Zu Jiang and said, "General Zu, get up quickly!"

Zu Jiang still knelt on the ground and said, "This minister is guilty, please punish your majesty!"

King Ning heard a thump in his heart, and suddenly got up and looked at Zu Jiang: "General Zu, what happened, don't tell me quickly!"

So Zu Jiang led his navy to patrol the river, and he encountered the imperial reinforcements led by Chu Yi. After a big battle, the news that the navy was almost wiped out came out one by one.

King Ning said with a look of shock: "What, Chu Yi has arrived near Nanjing, he... hasn't he stayed in Huai'an City all the time?"

Although it was very shocking to say that Chu Yi suddenly appeared outside the city of Nanjing, fortunately, King Ning was only slightly shocked. After all, he had already ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. As Zhu Houzhao's number one confidant, even if there were more The reason must also come to suppress the rebellion.

Meeting Chu Yi was nothing more than one day at a time. Now that Chu Yi arrived near Nanjing City, it made King Ning's heart fall.

Since he had to face Chu Yi sooner or later, it would be better to face him sooner or later.The only thing that made King Ning a little sad was that the navy he had managed to get together was destroyed in a single battle.

Looking at Zu Jiang who was kneeling on the ground, King Ning said, "I forgive you and innocent, General Zu, get up!"

Zu Jiang's face showed a bit of relief, and after thanking King Ning, he slowly got up.

Looking at Zu Jiang, King Ning said solemnly: "General Zu, since you have already fought against Chu Yi, in your opinion, what is the strength of the imperial army? With our strength, can we stop the imperial army?"

Zu Jiang pondered and said: "The imperial troops and horses can be called elites, but our army is not bad, Chu Yi only brought a mere [-] soldiers and horses, does Your Majesty think that Chu Yi wants to rely on that mere [-] soldiers and horses? Do you want to break down Nanjing City?"

Hearing Zu Jiang's words, King Ning was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, and said while laughing: "What Aiqing said is very true, but I want to see how he, Chu Yi, relies on an army of [-] to deal with me. of."

It has to be said that King Ning's army of more than [-] people is where King Ning's confidence lies.

Originally, King Ning had nearly [-] soldiers and horses. After the city of Nanjing was conquered, tens of thousands of court soldiers and horses in the city naturally surrendered to King Ning. Now King Ning has nearly [-] troops under his command.

One is [-], the other is [-], the number gap is several times, and King Ning is really not afraid of Chu Yi.

General Li Zhen narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, the last general would like to lead his troops to meet that robber for a while!"

King Ning looked at Li Zhen after hearing the words, pondered and smiled and said, "Okay, I promise your army fifty thousand to kill Chu Yi for me!"

Li Zhen was overjoyed, [-] to [-], this is clearly the credit for delivering to the door. If he can kill Chu Yi, then this great credit will belong to him.

Li Zhen couldn't help but feel joy at the thought of beheading Chu Yi to be famous in history and sung all over the world.

But Li Zhen didn't forget one thing, looked at King Ning and said, "Your Majesty, that eunuch's skill is unpredictable. At the end of the day, he asked himself to be able to destroy Chu Yi's army, but he was not sure that he would be able to kill Chu Yi's eunuch. So please, Your Majesty..."

King Ning narrowed his eyes, nodded slightly and said, "General Li, don't worry, I will send someone to assist General Li, and someone will entangle Chu Yi."

Hearing what King Ning said, Li Zhen said in high spirits: "The last general will live up to His Majesty's expectations and dedicate Chu Yi's head to His Majesty."

Outside the city of Nanjing, in the previous battle, King Ning's navy was almost wiped out. Even if he escaped from the port where a few large ships were hiding, how could he dare to die.

So in this case, Chu Yi's army of [-] successfully landed and set up camp.

Chu Yi couldn't help sighing when he looked at the city in front of him, where dragons and tigers are occupied.

The Nanjing City of Daming is worthy of being the largest city in the world. With the scale of Nanjing City today, even if it is Beijing City, it is slightly worse.

It should be known that the Ming Taizu set the capital of Nanjing City, but the city of Nanjing expanded a lot.

A Nanjing city is divided from the outside to the inside. The outer city, the capital city, the imperial city, and the palace city, not to mention the capital city, the outer city is more than [-] kilometers long, including Zhongshan, Xuanwu Lake, Mufu Mountain, etc. A large area is encircled into the outer Guocheng.

It can be imagined how huge the complete Nanjing city is.

At this moment, the army of Chu Yi was stationed several miles outside the Qilin Gate at the southernmost end of Waiguo, on the verge of the river.

The entire outer palace is dozens of miles long, and most of it is made of loess. Although it is not comparable to a brick and stone city wall, but looking at the city made of high loess, under the condition of condescending, I want to break through the city and attack the city. One side is naturally at a disadvantage.

Just as Chu Yi was looking at the city near Qilin Gate, Li Zhen, the general who received the order of King Ning, personally led [-] soldiers and horses to pass through Shangyuan Gate, Xianhe Gate, etc., and exited Qilin Gate. Tens of thousands of troops set up a battle in the open space outside the Qilin Gate.

Backed by Qilin Gate, there is a continuous city, and in front of it is an open field, which is far away from the barracks of Chu Yi's army.

Looking at Chu Yi's army of [-], and then looking at the army of [-] behind him, Li Zhen couldn't help but feel confident, and said to the generals beside him: "Everyone, let's go with this general to meet this Quanqin for a while. The world's great robber!"

Several generals couldn't help laughing when they heard the words.

Although they said that they had always heard of Chu Yi's reputation, they had never met Chu Yi. They only knew that although Chu Yinian was not big, he was favored by the emperor, and his hands were bloody, so they were naturally curious about Chu Yi. , Now I am very interested in hearing the words.

Li Zhen drove his horse forward, and stopped about two miles away from where Chu Yi's army set up camp, and saw a messenger marching on the horse, walking to the camp and said: "Chu Yi, listen, my general has something to say. Tell you, don't come out quickly!"

Not long after returning to the camp, Chu Yi looked at Qi Hu and the others, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Oh, you said that a group of men and horses came out of Nanjing City, and its master is going to see the Governor?"

Qi Hu frowned and said, "Master, why don't you let your subordinates go and kill that person, so you don't make a fuss here! He didn't even think about his identity, how could he see the master if he wanted to? of……"

Chu Yi put down the book in his hand and said with a slight smile, "I would like to take a look at the Governor, who has such courage!"

While speaking, Chu Yi slowly got up, and the two little eunuchs hurriedly stepped forward to serve Chu Yi, put on a python suit, tied up his hair crown, and put on a black cloak. Go to camp.

[Well, [-] characters, big guys, the monthly pass is doubled, the end of the month, let's see if the monthly pass is still available, smash it, fleas will be humming...]

Chapter 1 Laughing at the Lord without knowing how to live or die [[-] more]

The soldiers guarding the camp gate saw Chu Yi and his party coming on horseback from a distance, and immediately opened the camp gate as instructed by the camp guard general and quickly dragged the refusal horses in front of the camp gate to both sides.

A burst of smoke rose, Chu Yi was about a few hundred meters away from the camp, and behind him were more than a hundred soldiers, looking at the army of King Ning on the opposite side.

Compared with the orderliness of the imperial troops and horses brought by Chu Yi, these troops and horses under King Ning gave people a feeling of chaos.

Especially when tens of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered together, it turned out to be very noisy. If these soldiers and horses were not dressed in soldiers' costumes, Chu Yi would have thought that they were a group of rogues.

As the commander-in-chief of an army, Li Zhen saw a group of men and horses coming out of the camp, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes, glanced at the guards beside her, and drove her horse forward.

About a hundred meters away from Chu Yi, Li Zhen stopped and looked at Chu Yi with a scrutiny.

Seemingly sizing up Chu Yi, Li Zhen raised her brows and looked at Chu Yi and said, "Are you the thief Chu Yi who brought disaster to the country and the people?"

Apparently Li Zhen had never seen Chu Yi either, but had probably heard about Chu Yi's description.

Although it was different from what he imagined when he saw Chu Yi, Li Zhen still looked at Chu Yi with a bit of ridicule.

Chu Yi's expression was calm, not at all angry because of Li Zhen's rudeness, he gave Li Zhen a light look and said, "Li Zhen, a former guerrilla general in Nanchang Mansion, because a younger sister married into Prince Ning's mansion as a concubine and took refuge in Ning. Wang, when King Ning raised his army, he personally beheaded several officials in Nanchang City who refused to join King Ning, and he was highly valued by King Ning.

Li Zhen was only stunned when he heard the words. Chu Yi was in charge of the East Factory, Jinyiwei and other departments, and it was really not a problem to inquire about his news, so it was not unusual for Chu Yi to reveal his origin.

"Yes, it is this general. It seems that compared to Chu Yi, your eunuch's background, this general is much stronger than you!"

Qi Hu, who was standing behind Chu Yi, couldn't help but shouted, "You are so arrogant, how dare you be rude to the Governor!"

Chu Yi rubbed the jade wrench on the fingertips with one hand, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, raised a hand and said lightly: "The Governor has never concealed his origin, I have indeed come step by step from a little eunuch to today. , but so what!"

He wanted to anger Chu Yi, but if Chu Yi rushed up in anger, the guards he brought would have the opportunity to behead Chu Yi, but Chu Yi's bland reaction made Li Zhen stunned for a moment.

From Li Zhen's point of view, the eunuchs in this world are very taboo for others to call him a eunuch. I thought that Chu Yi was no exception, but I never thought that Chu Yi would be so calm.

Rubbing the jade finger, Chu Yi said to Li Zhen: "Li Zhen, don't say that the Governor didn't give you a chance, as long as you are willing to lead your subordinates to get lost, the Governor is willing to intercede with the emperor to keep you from dying..."

Listening to Chu Yi's words, Li Zhen couldn't help laughing, pointing at Chu Yi while laughing: "It's funny, it's really funny, others say how extraordinary you are, Director Chu, I never thought of seeing you today, What a fool!"

Saying that, Li Zhen turned to the trusted general beside him and said, "Did you hear it? Chief Chu asked us to surrender, isn't it very funny!"

Seeing Li Zhen's arrogant appearance, Qi Hu, who was standing beside Chu Yi, couldn't help showing a bit of anger: "Master, do you want your subordinates to rush up and kill this arrogant person."

Chu Yi shook his head slightly, and his eyes showed a bit of solemnity: "You can't kill him alone!"

When Qi Hu heard the words, he was immediately dissatisfied and said, "Just a mere Li Zhen. From the perspective of his subordinates, he is only a third-rate player in the world. The subordinates can guarantee that at most a few moves can take his life!"

Qi Hu didn't put Li Zhen in his eyes at all. He could kill Li Zhen as soon as he took a shot, but Chu Yi said he couldn't kill Li Zhen. How could Qi Hu not be angry.

Chu Yi turned his gaze to an old man in green clothes beside Li Zhen. This old man in green clothes was not very prominent among the guards Li Zhen brought, and even because several trusted generals beside Li Zhen were at the front, the old man in blue clothes was not very prominent. The figure was mostly obscured.

If you didn't look carefully, you probably wouldn't even notice the existence of this old man in green clothes.

Qi Hu's attention was obviously focused on Li Zhen, and he didn't notice the old man in Tsing Yi hidden in the crowd.

But what kind of spiritual sense is Chu Yi, it can be said that when Li Zhen and his party appeared in the line of sight, Chu Yi felt an aura locked on him.

This kind of feeling can only be felt by the existence of the innate level.

It can be said that Chu Yi felt the existence of the old man in Tsing Yi immediately.Only from the sense of breath, Chu Yi can feel that the other party's cultivation is not necessarily worse than his own, and the other party is definitely a top existence above the rivers and lakes.

Following Chu Yi's gaze, Qi Hu quickly sensed the existence of the old man in Tsing Yi.

After all, as long as you carefully observe it, the easy old man can still detect it very easily.

The moment he noticed the old man, Qi Hu's eyes shrank, and his face showed a bit of shock: "This...this is an unborn innate powerhouse!"

Based on Qi Hu's cultivation, it can be said that only the innate-level existence can make him alert, and there are few existences under innate that can make him alert.

There was a slight smile on the corner of Chu Yi's mouth and said: "This person is an existence in the same era as you, if you mention his name, you will definitely not be unfamiliar with Qi Dangtou!"

Hearing what Chu Yi said, Qi Hu's mind was also quickly recalling the innate powerhouses that could be said in the rivers and lakes. Suddenly a name appeared in his mind, and Qi Hu exclaimed: " Huashan Jianzong has a clear wind!"

Qi Hu is also a good swordsman. In the past, he was a strong swordsman on the rivers and lakes, but Feng Qingyang was amazing and brilliant, and he was the best swordsman of the same generation.

It's just that Feng Qingyang disappeared because of the accident of the second Huashan Sword Qi Sect, and has not appeared on the rivers and lakes for decades. Over time, many people in the rivers and lakes have forgotten the existence of Feng Qingyang.

But Qi Hu had a relationship with Feng Qingyang back then. It would be fine if he couldn't guess Feng Qingyang's identity, but since he guessed his identity, and looking at Feng Qingyang's current appearance, it is indeed true. It looks a bit like back then, so Qi Hu can be sure that the old man in Tsing Yi is from the Huashan School.

In the end, Qi Hu was a close confidant by Chu Yi's side. Feng Qingyang appeared in the Huashan faction to support Linghu Chong and seize the position of Yue Buqun's head. He still knew the news.

It's just that it wasn't linked to Feng Qingyang for a while.

Having confirmed Feng Qingyang's identity, Qi Hu couldn't help showing excitement and eagerness in his eyes.

But for those who practice swordsmanship, who on the rivers and lakes does not want to compete with Feng Qingyang, who is known as the Sword Saint.

And Qi Hu's cultivation has reached the current level, it can be said that he has stood at the peak of the innate, and it is this bottleneck that has stuck him for more than ten years.

According to Qi Hu's accumulation, he already has the background to break through the innate, but the opportunity does not come, but he does what he does.

For Qi Hu, if he could fight against a strong swordsman like Feng Qingyang, who had unfathomable accomplishments in swordsmanship, there might be a great possibility to touch him, and he would break through naturally.
