King Zhennan looked stern when he heard this, and the cold light in his eyes turned into two sharp swords and stabbed straight at the old man.
Zhou Jian immediately lowered his head when he saw this. He understood that King Zhennan had made up his mind, but he really couldn't bear to see the scene of his brothers fighting. Moreover, once the plan was fully launched, the people would suffer in the end. It was precisely because of a famine that swept the world. , he was sold into the palace by his parents.
He was still young at that time. When he learned that he was going to be sold into the palace, the news was like a bolt from the blue to him. When he entered the palace, he swore that he would never recognize these cruel people again in his life. parents.
Now that most of his life has passed, he can no longer hold any hatred for his parents' behavior back then. If he couldn't survive, why would his parents sell him?
Zhou Jian, who had grown up in the palace for many years, also looked away. At that time, he was already the personal eunuch of King Zhennan. It was no problem to find someone for him. However, the news he got after all the trouble made him extremely sad. , he originally thought that if his parents sold him, he would be able to give his younger siblings a way to survive, but the little money from selling him didn't last long at all.
The scope of the famine was too wide, and merchants were chasing profits. Even with the suppression of the imperial court, the group of profit-seeking merchants could not resist the temptation of huge profits, and took the opportunity to drive up the price of food. If there was a famine in normal times, relying on Zhou Jian Their family could definitely survive the dozens of taels of silver they had to sell themselves for, but the famine lasted so long and was so extensive that it was rare in ancient times, and the world's population dropped by a full 20%.
Zhou Jian's family did not survive. When he received the news, he cried hard all night. The resentment of the year had long since disappeared.
It was not until recently that the imperial court regained its strength, and suddenly encountered a catastrophe. The Yi and Di would not miss such an excellent opportunity, and raised their troops to attack the border. The border of the Ming Dynasty was devastated in those years. Later, if it had not been for the king of Zhennan With the existence of Ming Dynasty, the border of Ming Dynasty will never be so stable now.
Explosions are often more harmful than natural disasters. Once the plan is launched, the world will be in chaos and wars will break out. For the sake of the supreme throne, Ming Dynasty will be attacked from all sides, and the harm will be far worse than the last famine.
Zhou Jian sighed softly in his heart, the world is going to be in chaos again, and it is the people living at the bottom who will suffer after all. Unfortunately, he is just a sharp blade in the hands of the prince, and cannot influence the master's mind. From an angle that the King of Zhennan cannot see, , Zhou Jian's face was full of compassion.
After a while, Zhou Jian said slowly.
"Your Majesty, everything goes well. If there are no accidents, it can be started in two months."
King Zhennan looked slightly unhappy, and was obviously not satisfied with the current progress, but he also understood that such a major matter as rebellion should not be rushed, so he spoke in a slightly anxious tone.
"ASAP!"
In Wuzheng Villa, Li Jie stood in the courtyard and was deep in thought. He didn't answer for a long time. Gu Santong was beside him as anxious as if there were ten cat claws scratching him. After a while, Gu Santong couldn't hold it back anymore. Stop, I can't help but ask.
"Hey, hey, Zhu Wuyi, you don't want to default on your debt, do you? You ignored me for so long!"
Li Jie was shocked by Gu Santong and came back to his senses. Although the conjecture just now was a bit scary, it was not impossible. It seemed that he would report it to the emperor immediately and let him send someone to find out as soon as possible.
No matter how well the King of Zhennan hides such a major event as rebellion, as long as the state machinery is fully activated, some clues will always be discovered. I don't know whether the court is aware of it, but in a situation like this, it is still possible even if the court does not discover it. Normally, I don’t know what the progress is on Cao Zhengchun’s side.
Of course, Li Jie hoped that his conjecture was false. His foundation in the court was too shallow, and he had no intention and inability to interfere in some things. He could take care of the affairs in the Jianghu. Glancing at Gu Santong, Li Jie said with a smile. .
"Do you really want to know? It's not impossible to tell you, but you have to agree to help me do something."
Gu Santong looked happy when he heard this, and immediately clapped his chest and said: "As long as you don't hide anything, let alone one thing, it's no problem if it's ten or eight!"
Li Jie pondered slightly: "Okay, first of all, you go to the eight sects and submit a battle invitation in my name. If any of them can defeat me alone, I will give you the inheritance of Tianchi Weixia with both hands. In addition, after notifying the eight major sects, go to Wanhua Villa and ask them to bear witness to this battle at the cost of the Medical Scripture. I will give the Medical Scripture to you later."
"Of course, you can take a look at it on the way, but I believe you won't be interested. All the records on it are medical theories that have nothing to do with martial arts. By the time you return, the news of your appointment with the eight major sects must have spread throughout the world. You are spreading the word that even people who are not from the eight major sects can come to challenge me. As long as they can defeat me, they can also get the inheritance of Tianchi Weixia."
Gu Santong thought that Li Jie would propose something difficult, but he didn't expect that he would just run errands and shout out words, so he immediately agreed in a hurry.
The reason why Li Jie decided to challenge the eight major sects was not just on a whim. He had already made appointments to challenge the heroes to prove what he had learned. However, originally he planned to challenge them one by one in secret, but now he just changed the method, openly and honestly. Although a fight will definitely attract huge attention, the price paid is not unbearable.
Li Jie had no way of knowing who among the eight major sects was attracted by the mysterious force. This was done mainly to destroy the opponent's plot. Li Jie had no intention of holding back in this fight. He had to use full firepower and injure as many as he could. how many.
It's not impossible to accidentally kill two of them by accident, but you can't kill all the people he fights with, otherwise he will offend the public. With Li Jie's current martial arts, he is not afraid of fighting alone. Once he is surrounded by multiple masters, , he asked himself that he had no chance of winning.
In addition, the successor of the indestructible Vajra has always been the best in the world in martial arts. Gradually, people in the world have ranked the indestructible Vajra as the best in the world. With it as a bait, Li Jie is not afraid that the eight sects will not come. It has a long inheritance. The eight major sects of the Communist Party of China are here, not to mention other people in the world.
As for why people from Wanhua Villa were asked to do the notarization, it was because Wanhua Villa had a very special status in the world, and the reputation accumulated over thousands of years was enough to reassure people in the world.
No one in the world can guarantee that he will not be injured. Wanhua Villa has superb medical skills and is very good at dealing with internal and external injuries. Sooner or later, he will be asked to come to his door.
If the eight major sects are the good and lawful camp, and the Demonic Cult is the chaotic evil camp, then Wanhua Villa is absolutely neutral.
Wanhua Villa has never been involved in the disputes in the world, so it is not easy to invite them to come out. Since the Medical Classic dares to be named after the classic, it proves that it is not a simple medical classic.
The "Medical Classic" is a secret medical code that Li Jie created by drawing on the strengths of others, integrating ancient and modern Chinese and foreign techniques, and collecting the medical essences of several copies of the world. The reward is something Wanhua Villa cannot refuse.
