"I've seen Deputy Cui Qianhu - Hey, what's the look on your face... Could it be that you've encountered some difficulty?"
In the front yard, two hundred households came forward to salute Cui Yixiao, but found that Mr. Cui seemed to be in a bad mood today. One of the hundred households asked this question.
Cui Yixiao looked at the two people in front of him. After he was promoted to Deputy Qianhu, he also had the power to nominate hundreds of households. The brothers who had followed him through life and death were also promoted.
Both of these two people had worked hard together in the past, and now they have been promoted to hundreds of households, and they are considered his confidants.
Facing them, Cui Yixiao had nothing to hide. He sighed and said, "Master Lu just issued an instruction. Next, the focus of our strategy will begin to shift towards Wudang."
The two hundred households looked at each other, and one of them said in confusion: "Is there something wrong with this? Wudang is already a thorn in the side, and it is reasonable for Mr. Lu to plan to deal with them."
"Having said that, it seems that Mr. Lu is planning to take part in person this time." Cui Yixiao said this and sighed again.
"this......"
The two hundred households looked at each other in confusion after hearing this. One of them hesitated for a moment and then said, "Is it possible that your Excellency is worried about Wu Qian's explanation?"
"Yes." Cui Yixiao nodded heavily.
Long before Lu Hanjiang and his party left the capital, Wu Qiming found Cui Yixiao, who was called by Lu Hanjiang to accompany him, and told him to ask his subordinates to work more diligently and not to have Mr. Lu personally rub their arms for everything.
In fact, this was not because they were not active enough. It was because Lu Hanjiang became playful and couldn't stop him at all.
Wu Qiming's explanation was not unreasonable. Originally, the commander of the Jinyiwei was equivalent to the commander of an army. How could a commander personally go into battle and kill people all day long? This is not a literal story.
And to put it bluntly, there is no precedent for such unfortunate events.
Why the play at Dingjunshan is so good and has become an enduring play for thousands of years is because in this battle, Cao Wei's northwest commander Xia Houyuan carelessly underestimated the enemy and was finally hacked to death among the rebels.
Although Lu Hanjiang's martial arts skills are unfathomable and he has never been defeated so far, he is not afraid of anything like this. Wu Qiming hopes that Mr. Lu will take root in the capital. It is best not to go anywhere, let alone watch him go into battle to kill the enemy.
Now that it's all right, let alone persuading Mr. Lu to return to Beijing, he has become more interested, and now he has to go out and play in person.
It’s not that Cui Yixiao didn’t work hard, but Lu Hanjiang’s answer was really incomprehensible to him——
"Do you know what the most boring thing in the world is? That is standing by and watching others play." Lu Hanjiang said this.
Mr. Lu has made up his mind, no matter how they try to persuade him, they can only cheer up and follow him to the end.
"Go and prepare. This time our task is very heavy. Not only do we have to obey Mr. Lu's orders at all times, but also..." Cui Yixiao said a little tiredly: "Her Royal Highness is also very concerned about the protection of the princess."
Yes, this time not only Lu Hanjiang is planning to play both hands, but Princess Yongle is also going to follow him.
The couple were of the same character. Lu Hanjiang didn't listen to Wu Qiming's kind words and insisted on going out to play. Princess Yongle didn't listen to the consort's advice and planned to go deeper into the world.
Not counting these two people, there is also Shangluo who is positioned as a model lake. If these three people go out together, if any one of them has a problem, Cui Yixiao will be blamed for death, so how can he not be depressed?
...
After the battle at Mount Tai, it took another five days for the first group of Jianghu Zhengdao who came to the rescue to arrive. According to their estimates, it was impossible for the Xuantian Sect to attack in a large scale. With just these two masters, they thought It is simply impossible to capture the Hengshan faction.
Therefore, the late arrival of this group of people was intentional but also helpless. On the one hand, it was not easy to gather enough lineups to come for reinforcements in a short period of time. On the other hand, it was also to kill Hengshan's prestige.
But when they arrived at the lifeless gate of Mount Tai, everyone felt a little bad. When they hurried to the top of the mountain, the smell of corpses that hit their faces made the leaders look confused. Big changes.
When everyone saw that everyone in Hengshan died at this moment, everyone was shocked. This was beyond their expectations. No one thought that the Xuantian Sect could achieve this level.
You must know that although Hengshan has experienced the chaos of the Five Sacred Mountains Conference and its strength has been greatly damaged, and Taoist Master Tianfeng even broke his leg at Zhujian Villa and retreated to the second line, but overall, Hengshan's size and strength are still enough to carry a first-class sect. Big flag.
But such Hengshan was actually massacred by the Xuantian Sect silently. This not only brought shame to the many people who had sworn to it, but also made a group of knights and knights from small families feel at risk.
You know, even the first-rate forces like the Hengshan Sect cannot withstand a single blow from the Xuantian Sect, but if you put them in their shoes, if they are placed opposite the Xuantian Sect, the result may not be very good.
The news of the destruction of the Hengshan Sect spread throughout the world as quickly as it spread out, and after weighing the pros and cons, all parties decided to fight against the Xuantian Sect.
This was all forced out, because before this, there were certainly times when the demonic path was strong, such as the Xuantian Cult leader's fierce battle with the Seven Wudang Sons, and the Wandaomen Sword King's fierce battle with the Huangfu family, etc.
But although every time the devil comes, it rarely happens like this, where an ancient sect that was born a hundred years ago and has been passed down to this day has been completely wiped out from the world.
The previous Xuantian Sect was indeed so powerful that it was difficult for people to have the idea of confronting it, but after all, the other party seemed to have the strength to wipe out the whole family, but it had never done such a thing.
But this time, when the Xuantian Sect truly wiped out the Hengshan Sect, one of the Five Sacred Mountains, from the world, a sense of crisis arose in everyone's hearts, whether they were on the righteous path or the demonic path.
Even the leader Xuantian himself had not expected this, because according to his estimation, the manpower brought by Li Yan and Bai Yichen, even with the rapid improvement of Qian Xiao, would be difficult to compete head-on with a first-rate sect.
In fact, if the sword demon Chi Qianyun hadn't secretly attacked and killed Hu Qianzhong, the Hengshan sect might have been able to break through the siege and escape, so the battle to exterminate the entire clan would have been reduced to a disastrous defeat.
But there are no ifs in the world. Qian Xiaoxiao and Li Yan have indeed accomplished the great feat that their predecessors have not accomplished, physically eliminating the influence of the Wuyue Sword Sect that has lasted a hundred years ago to this day.
But this has brought great trouble to Xuantian Sect, so much so that Li Yan is already considering the proposal sent by Jin Yiwei.
As one of the first people to follow His Highness, Li Yantai knew that the other person was actually not broad-minded. If he had caused such a disaster, what awaited him after he returned would be punishment and deprivation of power.
After hesitating for a few days, Li Yan secretly sent a message to Qing Xian'er, and conveyed his answer to Jin Yiwei through her.
Cui Yixiao, as the contact person, quickly replied to the letter and instructed Li Yan to slow down his return to the north, and wait until the Jin Yiwei found out Zhengdao's arrangements before letting him take the initiative to "sacrifice himself" again.
But at this moment, neither party expected that in addition to Zhengdao and Jinyiwei, there was another force following in the footsteps of Li Yan and Qian Xiaoxiao, and that was Bai Yichen, the former protector of the Xuantian Sect, and—
Tianquan of Qingcheng Sect.
