The Most Powerful Man in the World

After being seated, Li Wei immediately carefully took a brocade box from the book boy beside him, placed it on the table, and opened it carefully under everyone's attention.

Everyone only saw a roll of yellow silk paper in the brocade box. Just by looking at the traces of the passage of time on the silk paper, they could see that it was a piece of silk paper, and I was afraid it was no less than a hundred years old. .

The large characters of "Lingwu Fu" came into view, and all the people present were literati. When they saw the large characters on the silk paper, many people's eyes lit up.

Lingwu Fu is a famous piece by the great scholar Fan Zhongyan. No one in the world does not know the name of Fan Zhongyan, Fan Wenzheng, and nothing else. It is only the worry and worry of the world before the world's happiness and joy makes Fan Zhongyan's name move the world.

As soon as this piece of Lingwu Fu came out, it naturally shocked the spirit of the people present, and one of the scholars looked at Li Wei with a look of amazement: "Brother Li, this... This is the Lingwu written by Fan Gong in the past. Fu?"

There are many versions of Fan Zhongyan's manuscripts circulating in the market, but those manuscripts are not handwritten by Fan Zhongyan, but engraved by later generations.

One is Fan Zhongyan's handwriting, and the other is engraved in large quantities by engraving, so there is no comparison between the two.

If it was not written by Fan Zhongyan himself, then if you want a piece of Lingwu Fu, you can buy it casually.

Li Wei heard a bit of pride on his face and said: "Yes, this is the Lingwu Fu that was written by Fan Gong in his own hand. This manuscript fell into my Li family and has been treasured to this day. "Brother, Mr. Li will never ask this Fan Gong manuscript out easily!"

Chu Yi likes various manuscripts written by former sages and great Confucians. If you want to ask Chu Yi to write poems and lyrics, if there are no manuscripts of former sages and great Confucians, please do not move Chu Yi.

Even if there is a manuscript of the former sage and great Confucianism, whether to do it or not depends on Chu Yi's mood.

Chu Yi has seen a lot of manuscripts of various former sages. With his status in Daming, even if he does not give any orders, the following people know that he likes to collect manuscripts of former sages, and they will take the initiative to collect them one by one, so It is said that Chu Yi has really seen many such manuscripts.

Lingwu Fu is indeed a manuscript written by Fan Zhongyan, but who made Chu Yi's appetite already nourished, it is really impossible to impress him with a manuscript alone.

Reaching out and looking at the Lingwu Fu, the sea of ​​consciousness shook slightly, and Chu Yi put it down.

Seeing this, Li Wei sighed in his heart. He knew that Chu Yi might not be able to impress Chu Yi just by relying on his own spirit, so seeing Chu Yi's actions, although he said he was a little disappointed, he didn't panic. Instead, he looked to the side. One of the scribes said: "Brother Meng Li, my younger brother heard that Brother Meng Li has a volume of "Three Measures of Heaven and Man" written by Dong Zhongshu of the early Han Dynasty in his hand, but I don't know..."

Everyone gasped when they heard the words, and even Meng Li suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Wei.

Dong Zhongshu and others, who proposed the theory of the induction of heaven and man, the great unification, suggested that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dismissed the hundred schools of thought, and only respected Confucianism of a generation of Confucian sages.

The preciousness of his handwritten manuscripts can be seen in general, especially in the minds of Confucian students, Dong Zhongshu's status is even more extraordinary.

A volume of manuscripts seems to be of little value, but it depends on who is in the hands. If Dong Zhongshu's manuscripts are in the hands of a beggar or a common farmer, they are probably worthless, and they will be abandoned. But if it is in the hands of a scribe In hand, it is definitely a treasure that is hard to come by.

A pair of eyes fell on Meng Li's body, Meng Li frowned, looked at Li Wei with a bit of displeasure, took a deep breath, slowly shook his head and said, "Brother Li is afraid It's a messenger. My Meng family is just a small family and a widow. It's not a scholarly family like Li brother at all. The family heirlooms of poetry and books can be compared. How could a Wenzong treasure like the three policies of heaven and man be in my Meng family? …”

Li Wei glanced at Meng Li and sighed in his heart. Since he dared to bring it up in front of Meng Li, he was naturally somewhat confident, but Meng Li's reaction was not unusual. If Meng Li nodded and admitted, then It's weird.

But Li Wei didn't bother either. After all, whether he was willing to take it out was something that Meng Li had to do. He just mentioned it.

Li Wei didn't take it to heart, but Chu Yi was a little curious. Dong Zhongshu's Three Policies of Heaven and Man can definitely be said to be a classic of Confucianism. on the position.

The most important thing is that a Confucian sage like Dong Zhongshu is definitely a strong man in the realm of heaven and man. Is there anything strange in the handwritten books left by such a strong man?

In this world, the high status of the literati is by no means unreasonable. If those literati are all powerless, how can they suppress the martial arts who can break mountains and crack rocks and destroy mountains and mountains? By.

As far as Chu Yi knew, among the people in the world, there were a lot of strong people, especially those great Confucians. It could be said that among the ten great Confucians, at least half of them were great masters or supreme masters.

According to this inference, if Dong Zhongshu did not have the cultivation of the realm of heaven and man, he dared to propose the idea of ​​dismissing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone, I am afraid that he would have been smashed into pieces by the strong men of the hundred schools who were suppressed by the imperial power. .

With a thought, Chu Yi looked at Meng Li, and sure enough, in the presence, only Meng Li could not see through by Chu Yi, even if Li Wei had a cultivation level comparable to that of a master, he was seen by Chu Yi. clear.

On the contrary, Meng Li was sitting there, and Chu Yi had a feeling that he couldn't see through it. Either Meng Li had a deep kung fu, or his cultivation method was extremely mysterious. If not, there was no way to explain why Chu Yi will not see through each other.

With a light cough, Chu Yi swept his eyes across the crowd, and said with a smile on his face: "Thanks to everyone's attention, Zhu will present his ugliness today and write a poem."

Li Wei was overjoyed when he heard this, and he clapped his hands on the spot and said, "Okay!"

No matter what era, there are iron fans, obviously this Li Wei is definitely Chu Yi's iron fans.

Seeing Chu Yi getting up, stepping out one step, he said in his mouth: "The ancients have spared no effort in learning, and the young and the young are old. It is shallow on paper, and I absolutely know that this matter must be implemented."

Everyone present was stunned, and their faces were full of horror. Although there was nothing amazing about the poem Chu Yi said, it showed the attitude of learning in one word. Even they were greatly affected by it. inspiration.

Li Wei even more excitedly clapped his hands and applauded: "Wonderful, really wonderful, as expected of Brother Zhu, it is such a good poem to recite casually."

Although all the students present have heard about Chu Yi's talent and learning, but only a few have seen it with their own eyes and heard with their own ears. If it wasn't for Li Wei's high status in Licheng, they might not know To give Li Wei face, come to cheer for Chu Yi.

But now they really feel the spirit of Chu Yi's full of poetry and calligraphy talent, put themselves in their shoes and think about it, they are afraid that they will never be able to write such a poem in their lifetime.

Next, all the literati present seemed to be absent-minded, and the poems that Chu Yi had just made echoed in their minds.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, seeing that everyone was greatly stimulated, Li Wei, the landlord, decisively ended the dinner and personally sent Chu Yi to the other courtyard in the city that had already been arranged.

After the banquet dispersed, what happened during the banquet naturally spread with the mouths of the literati, and it didn't take long for the scholars in the city to know what happened during the banquet.

Some people began to admire Chu Yi incomparably because of Chu Yi's poem, which made Chu Yi's pseudonym more famous.

However, some people also noticed the three strategies of heaven and man mentioned by Li Wei during the banquet. Li Wei’s background is extraordinary, he is the eldest son of the Li family in Licheng, and the poetry and books of the Li family have been passed down for hundreds of years. It can be said that he has a profound background. If it is said by others, I am afraid that few people will believe it, but since it is what Li Wei said, it is hard to say.

The three policies of heaven and man are the prototype of the sage Dong Zhongshu's theory of the induction of heaven and man and the unification of man.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In a quiet courtyard, Chu Yi, who was sent by Li Wei, was resting in the courtyard.

Luda and the others were accustomed to Chu Yi being so sought after, and it was not the first time for such an experience anyway.

At this moment, the night gradually dimmed, and the originally noisy city gradually returned to calm. Except for the watchman who was on the long street, there were not a few figures to be seen.

Compared with the prosperous land of Song Dynasty, it can almost be called the city that never sleeps, but in the territory of Xixia, it is obviously far worse than the Song Dynasty. The scene of the city that never sleeps is probably impossible to appear in the territory of Xixia.

After all, compared to the Great Song Dynasty, Xixia is far worse. If it is not for its own strength, I am afraid that it will not be possible to stand under the attack of the Great Song Dynasty.

Even so, between Da Liao and Da Song, Xixia is definitely the weakest one, wandering back and forth between the two.

Now Xixia chooses to be close to Da Liao and fight against Da Song. It is conceivable that Xixia, whose national power is almost all on the battle, will not be much better for the common people.

On the empty street, accompanied by the watchman's chiming, suddenly several figures were running in the darkness, looking at their direction, it seemed that they were all rushing to one place.

These figures came from all directions, just looking at their actions, it is expected that they are not the same group.

Meng's mansion on Changming Street, on this street, Meng's mansion is definitely the most eye-catching, but at this moment these shadows are running towards Meng's mansion.

In the Meng family's mansion, in a study, Meng Li stood there with his head lowered. In front of him, an old man was looking at Meng Li with an angry expression.

I just heard the old man say angrily: "How did the news of the three strategies of heaven and man leak out, you should tell the father."

Meng Li said with a face of self-reproach: "It's all my fault that after the boy was drunk, he accidentally leaked the news and it was known to Li Wei."

The old man narrowed his eyes and glared at Meng Li. Hearing Meng Li mentioning Li Wei, the old man couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "Li's unicorn, Li Wei really deserves his reputation. The idea of ​​​​playing the three strategies of heaven and man..."

"What? How is this possible!"

Meng Li, who was standing there, heard what his father said, and suddenly raised his head to look at the old man. Obviously, he was shocked by what his father said.

The old man didn't seem to see the kind of surprise on Meng Li's face, and sneered: "You wouldn't think that Li Wei deliberately mentioned the matter of heaven and man in front of so many people, really Just to please that Zhu Houzhao?"

Meng Li said in a trembling voice: "He... Does the Li family also want to plan the three strategies of heaven and man in the hands of our Meng family?"

The old man sneered and said, "I'm afraid that since you leaked the news, Mrs. Li has been planning, that Zhu Houzhao's visit to Licheng just happened to be a meeting, and Mrs. Li seized this opportunity to meet at the party. The above seems to be unintentional, but in fact, he deliberately leaked the news that the three strategies of heaven and man are in the hands of our Meng family, and his heart can be punished, and his heart can be punished."

Thinking that Mrs. Meng might have been targeted at this moment, Meng Li couldn't help but feel infinite self-blame, knelt down in front of the old man with a thud and said, "My son, I'm going to ask my father to punish me for causing such trouble!"

The old man glanced at Meng Li lightly and said, "If it was useful to punish you, my father would have beaten you half to death. Now that the news has been leaked, what is the use of punishment."

While speaking, a bright light flashed in the eyes of the old man, and the hand holding the teacup in one hand suddenly exerted force, and he saw that the teacup instantly turned into powder in the old man's hand.

"I hope the old man is overthinking it, otherwise, whether our Meng family can escape the catastrophe tonight will depend on the will of God."

Meng Li was not a fool either, he obviously realized this, and said to the old man with a bit of nervousness on his face: "I also ask my father to give an order, and ask my elder brother to lead an army to protect our Meng family..."

The old man just looked at Meng Li calmly, and said slowly: "Why? Even if your elder brother is the envoy of soldiers and horses in the city, but there is no order to mobilize soldiers and horses without authorization, that is a forbidden sin. Once it is verified, it must be directly plundered and exterminated the family.”

Meng Li said: "Any reason is fine, as long as you have an explanation to the people above, and the eldest brother dispatched troops and horses to come here, it's just to guard our Meng family's mansion..."

At this moment, the old man slowly shook his head and sighed softly: "I'm afraid it's too late. If it's not bad as my father expected, someone has already held your elder brother back at this moment."

Just as he was talking, he saw an old man outside the door saying, "I have seen the master and I have seen the son!"

Looking at the old man walking in, Meng Li quickly said respectfully, "I have seen Uncle Fu!"

The old man looked at Uncle Fu who came in and said, "A'Fu, what's going on with your work? What's the situation at Dalang's place, maybe dispatching troops and horses?"

Uncle Fu shook his head slightly and said, "The eldest son is now being dragged in the army and cannot leave, let alone dispatching troops and horses here."

At this moment, Meng Li suddenly reacted. It turned out that Uncle Fu went to invite his eldest brother. As a result, Uncle Fu's words surprised Meng Li in his heart.

All this seems to be expected by his father, and it is indeed the idea of ​​someone who is playing the three strategies in their hands.

Just when Meng Li was in a state of confusion, he heard his father get up slowly, looked towards the courtyard and said, "You all hide your head and show your tail, are you afraid that you will show your true face, and you won't meet each other if you don't?"

There are four or five figures standing there. It is obvious that these people are not the same people. The four or five figures are divided into four groups, and they keep enough distance from each other, as if they are afraid of being attacked by others. Target.

Only one of them was heard in a hoarse voice and said to the Meng family: "Meng Tianyang, hand over the three strategies of heaven and man, and I will spare you Meng family today."

Meng Tianyang heard this as if he had heard something funny. He laughed, stepped forward, walked out of the living room, and stood in front of everyone, his long gray hair was windless, and his majestic breath was like Stormy waves generally swept towards several people around.

These masked men in black saw Meng Tianyang's aura soaring, but instead of showing panic, they were all excited.

"The three strategies of heaven and man are really in the hands of your Meng family. Such treasures, those with virtue live in them, and the Meng family has no virtue and seizes the most precious treasures, which will only lead to the destruction of the family..."

Meng Tianyang sneered: "Stop talking nonsense, as long as you wait to destroy my Meng family, the three strategies of heaven and man are yours!"

As many people have guessed, the three strategies of heaven and man contain the practice method created by Dong Zhongshu in the past. Although this practice method does not dare to directly point to the realm of heaven and man, it is the supreme master of practice. The realm is no problem.

Above the rivers and lakes, a practice that directly points to the realm of the great master is enough to set off a bloody storm, not to mention the masterpieces such as the three strategies of heaven and man.

"Go ahead, cut this old thing first!"

The voice of a man in black fell, and his figure turned into a streamer and rushed towards Meng Tianyang. The cold light was a little bit, and it was a short knife, which directly attacked Meng Tianyang.

When the rest of the people saw this, it was as if they had negotiated in advance, and they all shot, and every shot was a killing trick.

In the darkness, on the top of the attic of the Meng family's mansion, Chu Yi and Lu Da, who were standing on the top of the attic, were watching from a distance at the moment a few people fighting together in the courtyard not far away.

Luda looked down with a look of surprise, and exclaimed with a bit of exclamation: "You all know that it is as expected, and the Meng family is really being watched."

Chu Yi said lightly: "As the so-called "every husband is innocent and guilty, if the Meng family doesn't have enough strength, I'm afraid that tonight will be the day when the Meng family will be wiped out."

Even if Luda is not a person in the rivers and lakes, he is also aware of the reality of a practice that can be called peerless, and it will definitely set off a bloody storm.

Suddenly, Luda's heart moved, he looked at Chu Yi and said, "I know that you are here, so you don't want to fight that day's three strategies, right?"

Chu Yi smiled slightly, and said without concealing his purpose: "Yes, the three strategies of heaven and man are the embodiment of Dong Zhongshu's thinking, and it contains the supreme cultivation method. For any martial artist who is interested in cultivation, Those are treasures that must be fought for.”

Just as he was talking, he suddenly saw Meng Tianyang who was under siege suddenly stop drinking, his breath skyrocketed, one hand was as fast as lightning, he grabbed one of them, his big hand grabbed the man's neck, and the next moment he listened. With a click, Meng Tianyang immediately killed him without any hesitation.

Chu Yi, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but squinted his eyes and stared at Meng Tianyang. You must know that at that very moment, Meng Tianyang's aura had the appearance of heaven and man faintly.

"Heaven?"

The men in black who originally besieged Meng Tianyang suddenly opened up the distance between them and Meng Tianyang. The strongest of them was only the supreme master, and the others were only masters. A first-class player.

They thought that Meng Tianyang's cultivation base was at most the realm of the supreme master, but they did not expect that Meng Tianyang, who was in a desperate situation, would burst out with such terrifying strength.
