In the territory far to the south of the Eastern Islands, the Liang Kingdom has been in the territory for no less than two decades, and there has been no war or chaos.
It is not like the rumors and fabrications of the practitioners in Zhongzhou or the West Road Three Kingdoms. It is said that the Daliang Kingdom has produced several great talents who are no less than the fifth realm. They collected sacrifices for the Daliang Kingdom with their discernment or weapon refining skills. There are no less than a thousand heavenly objects, and the number of spiritual treasures is even greater. As a result, the Daliang Kingdom, which is far away from the western border of Zhongzhou and is relatively peaceful, has not been exposed to war for a long time. Even though the Dongzhu Islands in the north with treacherous intentions are watching with eager eyes, they still dare not easily cross the East China Sea and invade. The border of Daliang.
And if this statement were to be put into the mainstream, I am afraid that even the people on the roadside would laugh at it. It is quite ridiculous.
But if you think about it carefully, there is some truth in it. Compared with ordinary people in several places in the western region of Zhongzhou, few people know that there is a spiritual path in the world. This is also because the people in the mountain deliberately concealed it, so that the matter could not be spread outside, and they followed the Immortal Family The high-ranking families in the sect who are prosperous and prosperous, and the important officials who can stand in the palace of the saint in the court, all know that this world is divided into two places, the mountain and the mountain, but they have a very strict tone. After all, even those ministers who have been powerful throughout the ages, if they were to get involved with the Xianjia sect and get into trouble, they would probably end up in a very miserable situation, even if they were just thinking about the family behind them, they would definitely Don't dare to provoke.
It is not necessarily difficult to find high officials and ministers in the world, but there are very few spiritual sects in a country. In the early years, the immortal family supported the aristocratic families, but in the past hundred years, the mountains and the bottom have become more and more distinct. The saints are powerful, even if they are from a long-standing aristocratic family. The background is very deep, and now no one dares to go beyond the thunder pool with that little friendship with the Xian family sect. No one knows what kind of ability it takes to unite with the complex family factions to dare to disrupt the government, and no one will try it. And in this case, how much ability and achievements must be required to make a saint in the Xianjia sect? He frequently dealt with an important minister to protect his shortcomings.
What's more, the current affairs in the Yuan Dynasty, after inquiring and investigating by secret agents from all over the country, it is really not some high and deep wall that is airtight. It is like countless paper kites appearing in the sky above the territory of the Yuan Dynasty for no reason, and the person holding the other end of the paper kite , perhaps in the inner courtyard of the imperial city, perhaps under the cover of many palaces, watching with cold eyes, glancing at the clues in the whole territory of Dayuan, and in Dayuan that happened to be deep in the beacon smoke, there was another clay-embodied Bodhisattva, soaked in the river water for two years, Xu It is still difficult for the Meng Mansion and the royal court to protect themselves, so how can they make room to investigate the hidden chess.
Therefore, during the Great Yuan War, the cultivators took several actions, and their weight was unavoidable no matter who they fell on.
Therefore, all countries agree to avoid talking about matters related to the cultivation of mountains and sects in various places.
The country of Daliang is different from the western border of Zhongzhou. Even ordinary people know that there are such cultivating sects. Although they may not know their location, it is no longer a taboo that is not mentioned. Daliang is far away from the other countries in Zhongzhou. It is difficult to catch up with strong ships due to the endless sky and sea waves. Most of the people in Daliang will not go to Zhongzhou or the Eastern Islands once from birth to death, and only live and thrive in Daliang. It is said in the rumors that there are thousands of spiritual treasures and objects in the sky in Daliang. It is better to say that they are far apart, and crossing the sea is not easy. Even now, there are few places such as Dong Zhudao or Xia Song Dayuan Shu that can withstand the surrounding Daliang. The waves are raging and the tide is difficult to calm down. If you intend to attack, you still need to carefully consider whether you can set foot on the border of Daliang safely.
Therefore, the country of Daliang may not always have good weather, but there has been almost no war in the past hundred years, and people live and work in peace and contentment. Except for years of great disasters, most of them are peaceful and stable.
A few months ago, the retainers of the Daliang Palace returned one after another from the four regions of Daliang, and the first retainer to return to the Daliang Palace was Cai Fu as always.
The rules of retaining retainers in the royal palace have been around for a long time. According to the rules handed down from the generals of Daliang, logically speaking, there should not be any retainers. What’s more, the king of Daliang is equal to the emperor. Since there are people who can be used, he should be among the ministers. Unfortunately, the same is true. According to the rules passed down from ancient times, ministers must be recommended by high-ranking officials before they can enter the court. If the king of Liang appoints and removes them all on his own, countless troubles will arise out of thin air. Therefore, there are only six or seven officials every year. He was personally taught by the Prince of Liang. Compared with other people with strong foundations in the court, even if they were highly appreciated, they would still be short-lived. Therefore, in desperation, the King of Liang a hundred years ago established rules for accepting retainers. Whether they made suggestions or assisted the state, the retainers in the Liang Prince's Palace contributed a lot and were more at home than in the court.
After Cai Fu succeeded to the throne from the King of Liang, he became famous in Qianmo countryside. The King of Xinliang only succeeded to the throne for two years and invited Cai Fu into the palace. He was highly regarded, but he never mentioned that he was hiding in the city. During the period, scholars who had done some minor business were introduced into the official career. As the years passed, most of the retainers who entered the palace about ten years after Cai Fu got an official position in the court, and some of them were no longer important ministers. It's only half a step away, but as the oldest and most seasoned disciple, Cai Fu has reached his forties, but has yet to enter an official career.
Even in this palace, King Liang once said that if he had no time to take care of the affairs of the palace, Cai Fu could take charge of it, and others had to follow. The power in his hands would even exceed that of most of the court, but there was no position beside him.
The flowers and plants in the palace are luxuriant, but they are restricted by the rules established through the ages. Therefore, even if the palaces of the past dynasties were rebuilt, they should not be extravagant, but rather simple. Although there are also palace buildings for resting during the patrol season, the palace is located in the middle of the Daliang Kingdom. , it looks like just an ordinary mansion courtyard. Sometimes when all the guests are here, it even seems to be very crowded. The courtyard and the house are blocked inside and outside. It is impossible to tell that this is the palace of Prince Daliang, but it is just like this. An ordinary mansion, which has been repaired and rebuilt countless times, still stands in the same place, as it has for thousands of years.
Cai Fu went to the side building, ordered the coachman to take the horse away, and feed himself. Then he walked down from the carriage tent side by side with a young man, went to the residence, and ordered the two maids who had been idle for a long time to tidy up a little. After checking his residence, he and the young man went to the tea pavilion outside the side building, which made several servants who had been serving in the palace all year round feel very strange. They counted with their fingers again and again, as if they had really forgotten. The last time Mr. Cai brought an outsider here, what year was it? However, everyone knew the rules and should not be curious about the matter. They should keep it in their hearts honestly, so they went about their business.
Although Cai Fu is young and close to his destiny, Cai Fu still looks like he was when he was 30 years old. He has an ordinary appearance, a short jaw and a narrow forehead. In his early years, when he made a living by doing small business in the market, he was often scolded for his short-lived appearance. If you don't know, In terms of his ability, most people would not be able to tell that this person has the slightest bit of bookishness. When he first met the King of Liang, he was inevitably slanderous and suspicious. Fortunately, he was indeed very capable. Whether it was about the affairs of the country or his writing, he was different from his appearance. He was tolerant and kind. The combination of kindness and power can really help a lot.
As for the young man from outside, his left arm is quite inconvenient, but it seems that he is not seriously injured. He is only very unfamiliar with using his left arm. Therefore, when he took the tea soup, he only used his right palm to hold the tea cup and nodded slightly. , Quan should be worth the poor etiquette of taking the tea soup with one hand.
"After traveling in Daliang for several months, brother Xiao Xian, do you think that the current King of Liang is a wise ruler? Unfortunately, I rarely have time to leave the palace. I have never been to several countries in the western border of Zhongzhou. The terrain of Daliang is remote and there are few contacts with other places. After calculation, , we still have frequent exchanges with the East Islands, thanks to the sturdy boats and slightly less wind and waves. Unfortunately, we can only have a partial understanding of other areas."
The young man swallowed a mouthful of tea soup, and suddenly his smile was very teasing. No one in the entire palace, except Prince Liang, dared to have such an expression.
"If you want to listen to flattery, what Brother Cai said is very pertinent. Daliang is located in a remote place and can only travel by building and boat. The benefit from it is that it can save the people from fire and water. The king of Liang today is wise and diligent in government. He is very good. , and if you listen to some real words, the King of Liang has never been the master of the Liang Dynasty. The reason why he can control a country is nothing more than being hands-on in everything and winning the hearts of the people. The towers overturned, but in an instant, it depends on Do the rest of them have thief intentions and courage? According to Xiao Xi, the act of enfeoffing four princes is no less than putting one's body and neck under the knife of others. When the head falls to the ground, it all depends on one's thoughts. "

"Thanks to Brother Cai's kindness, how about I work hard for the next two years and do a good deed for the King of Liang, whom I have never met before. Overtly and covertly, I will get rid of these four princes, and I will naturally have no worries anymore. How about it?" The young man's left arm is still very strong. It was clumsy, but he said these ridiculous words in an understatement, but Cai Fu couldn't tolerate disbelief.
He can destroy a sect in Daliang with one person. He has such a level of cultivation. Daliang alone has never had such a figure for thousands of years. But it is this very young Xiao Xi who can stand alone with a sword. It only took one day to destroy a sect.
It has not existed since ancient times and will be rare in the future. Only the person sitting in front of me can achieve such a level of cultivation.
Even Cai Fu always felt that this young man with a weak left arm was probably not inferior to the Zhongzhou Five Jue that he had heard about, and was even slightly stronger. However, he finally convinced himself and suppressed the fear in his heart. , called by brothers.
"Look at Mr. Cai's expression. He is probably not happy to hear this from me. No wonder he gave up the court and voluntarily became a retainer in the palace. Others have weak eyesight and don't know what my brother is thinking. No wonder he is now here. There are not many disciples who can climb to high positions. Even though he is just a disciple who is shy about being exposed to the public, his power is probably higher than that of important ministers in the court."
Xiao Xi was very happy to see this dull, stupid and upright scholar-domiciled in despair, and he was also very happy to come to the palace.
It's true as people say, killing someone indiscriminately is quite trivial. Only by stirring up a storm can you show your mastery. If you just try it and stop it, the taste is no less than using a sword to kill the sect.
