Chapter 101: Children of a Rich Family

"If you can beat me, I'll let you out of the house!"

However, ten years later, Xiao Yefei has grown into a young man, but he still has not defeated this man in a wheelchair.

"Don't ask a word about what happened back then. If you beat me, I'll tell you!

Ten years have passed. The fifth uncle's left arm was broken and his right leg was severed from the knee down. He has been disabled for ten years. The flowers bloomed and fell, and the man grew older. The growth rings left on the fifth master's uncle were not only the white hair on his temples, but also his growing cultivation.

Xiao Yefei has grown up. For ten years, he has been studying during the day and practicing martial arts and meditating at night. He has mastered the swordsmanship and palm skills taught by his master Chu Jianghan. He feels that his practice has reached a bottleneck, but he is still no match for the fifth uncle. , every time I ask him to make gestures, he always fails. Thinking of the fifth uncle's efforts and nurturing efforts over the past ten years, Xiao Yefei secretly worked hard to study literature and martial arts without leaving home.

This day was the Lantern Festival, and Ye Fei's reading class was closed. After filling his stomach randomly, he was about to go to the training room to work out his muscles as usual. The princess sent the eunuch to invite him, saying that he and his consort had prepared a special banquet in the back hall. Ask Ye Fei to go.

Ye Fei quickly changed into neat clothes and followed the eunuch to the back hall.

Xiaoye Fei gently opened the door, and saw the fifth uncle and the princess sitting at the same table for the first time. The rules of the Tian family have always been strict. Although the fifth uncle is the consort, he cannot eat at the same table as the princess with a title. When Xiao Yefei was confused, he was about to bow down to see the princess, but he saw the princess smiling and came up to invite her. His own hands pulled him to the seat.

Ye Fei felt uncomfortable all over. Although he had lived in the princess's mansion for ten years, he was focused on practicing martial arts and studying, and he had never eaten at the same table with her.

The fifth uncle noticed his discomfort and smiled for the first time, saying, "You have been focusing on your studies these years. It is rare for the whole family to sit together and celebrate the festival. You can sit here with peace of mind. I have a relationship with your aunt." Something to say.”

In the past, even if the fifth uncle mentioned the princess, he would always call him "princess" and never regarded himself as the husband of the princess. Now, for the first time, he said "your aunt" to himself. Ye Fei felt even more uncomfortable. Slowly raised his buttocks.

Just as the princess was about to sit down, she saw Ye Fei stand up again, so she stepped forward with a smile and said: "My child, it has been ten years since you lived here. It seems that your aunt has not taken good care of you, and this has already happened. Now. You are all grown up, let’s have a nice talk while we’re here.”

Ye Fei hurriedly bowed to learn, but the princess stretched out her hand to hold him, and said: "I heard from your uncle that you are a strong person, and you only focus on learning your skills. Over the years, I have not dared to disturb you. . Now that you are older, your husband said that you are very good at reading, and your uncle said that you have also mastered martial arts, so I am not afraid of disturbing your studies. Come, sit down, we are a family, sit down and talk if you have something to say. .”

Ye Fei sat down uncomfortably, and the princess poured him another drink.

The fifth uncle also smiled and said: "Ye Fei, your master is no longer here, and your aunt and I have no children, so I will adopt you as my adopted son. What do you think?"

Ye Fei was stunned when he heard this. He didn't know whether he should agree or not, let alone how to reply.

The princess said: "If you are willing, I will find someone to ask for the decree tomorrow, and then go to the clan mansion to register. From now on, we will all count on you." Hearing the clan mansion coming, Xiao Yefei's expression changed obviously, and the princess was busy Said: "I know you are a strong person and don't want to take advantage of others, but I can't help myself. Food, drink, housing and transportation must be controlled by others. If you can't mess around, you must report it to the clan government."

Ye Fei knew that his face was showing, and he quickly lowered his head.

The fifth uncle said: "To tell you the truth, your aunt was pregnant with a child the year before last, and she gave birth prematurely before giving birth. Now she is pregnant with another one, more than three months ago..." The princess's face turned red, she lowered her head and said, "I I'm already over thirty, and the imperial doctor said it's too late to have a child at this age. I don't know if I can save it this time. If I can't, your uncle and I will really have nothing to rely on in the future."

When Ye Fei saw the fifth uncle and the princess showing their true feelings for the first time, even telling him about miscarriage and pregnancy, a warm current suddenly rose in his heart. He quickly got up and knelt down on the ground, saying: "The child pays homage to his adoptive father. Meet my adoptive mother."

The princess was overjoyed, and hurriedly came over to help Ye Fei stand up, holding his hand and saying: "What do you call your foster mother? From now on, you will call me mother." She then pulled him to sit down, picked up food and poured wine, so they could be affectionate.

In the past, during festivals and holidays, the princess would send someone to bring her a change of clothes and shoes. Even during the few times they met, the princess was always considerate and polite to her. As for this princess's mansion, Ye Fei also Not even a hint of intimacy could be mentioned.

Looking at the princess in front of him who couldn't help pouring wine and food for him, Ye Fei seemed to have found the mother he had been missing for more than ten years. That night, Ye Fei and his adoptive father exchanged cups and cups. They both got very drunk and then dispersed.

After that day, Ye Fei's adoptive father loosened his discipline a lot, but he still didn't allow him to leave the house. After the Dragon Boat Festival in May, the princess successfully gave birth to a girl. The princess and her husband were very happy, and the princess even said that everything was great. Luck was all brought by Ye Fei, so he tried hard to find a title for Ye Fei. After hearing this, Ye Fei hurriedly refused because he was young and had not yet established a successful career.

On this day, Ye Fei was still working out his muscles in the practice room, but he saw his adoptive father wearing a long gown and pushing open the door. Ye Fei was overjoyed and asked, only to find out that he asked a master craftsman to make a prosthetic limb with fine iron. The father and son immediately gestured After a while, the adoptive father's magical skills were unfathomable. Except for some abnormalities that could be seen at the ankle, the iron prosthetic leg was almost the same as a normal person. However, the left arm was broken at the root. Even with the prosthetic leg, he could not look like a normal person.

After a series of gestures, Ye Fei was still defeated, but looking at his adoptive father's prosthetic limb, he couldn't help but fall into memories: that night ten years ago, the island in the middle of the lake surrounded by water, the strange courtyard, the mighty second uncle, and Bloody foster father...

The master was killed and the adoptive father was injured. The hatred that had been buried in ten years of hard study finally burst out from the young man's chest at this moment. He adjusted his breathing and asked in a normal tone as much as possible: "righteousness" Father, can you tell me who was the person who harmed you back then? Did they also harm the second uncle? The second uncle said that the people who harmed Xianyun Village were in that courtyard. What exactly was in that courtyard? Where?"

Xiaoye Fei clearly saw his adoptive father's chest swell. He obviously suppressed his anger and returned to his usual zombie-like expression. He said calmly: "Didn't I tell you that you defeated me?" , I will tell you that if I defeat you, I will let you out!"

Ye Fei lowered his head and said in frustration: "Father, if I want to defeat you, I have to wait another thirty to fifty years, wait for you to grow old and weak, wait for me to practice to your level again...could it...could it be that here In the meantime, do I want to stay in this princess’s mansion for most of my life?”

The prince-in-law was stunned, and after a long time he said softly: "My child, in the past ten years, I have invited the great Confucian scholar to teach you and let you study and study every day. You have already studied many classics, historical books, and works of saints. Yan, why can't you see through the grudges and vendettas? You should have high aspirations and shoulder the responsibility of the world, so that you can live up to the teachings of your master and me."

Hearing this, Ye Feiheng's heart softened again, and he whispered: "I just want to know who harmed you back then. I was obviously by your side... In the past ten years, I have seen you every day. Sitting in a wheelchair, I forced myself to practice martial arts well. I wanted to protect the people around me and ensure that they would not be harmed by anyone again." The Prince Consort smiled and sighed: "Boy, you are serious have grown up!"

The Prince Consort turned around, looked up at the beam, and said, "I won't tell you because I'm afraid you'll get involved too, and you won't be able to get away even if you want to. Besides, what can you do if you know? Even if you are Second Junior Uncle, aren't you tired of fighting and hiding in the ravine to live an honest life!"

"You mean, the second uncle is still alive?" Ye Fei said happily for his adoptive father.

The adoptive father replied: "Yes, alive, alive!" Seeing that his adoptive father's face was neither happy nor sad, Ye Fei was about to say a few more words about his second uncle, but was interrupted by his adoptive father: " Your godmother wants me to find a job for you in Jinyiwei. If you are willing, go and report it early tomorrow morning!"

Ye Feixi said happily: "Father, are you saying that I can go out?" His adoptive father replied: "If I didn't lock you up for ten years, how could you have cultivated what you are today?" Ye Feixi said: "But, I Haven't I beaten you yet?" The foster father replied: "Your current cultivation level is already in the palace. As long as you practice diligently and surpass me, it will be a matter of time sooner or later." Ye Fei said: "Father, I won't You don’t have to go to Jinyiwei, how about I go to Liumen as a catcher like you?”

The adoptive father waved his hands and said: "When it comes to martial arts, what you learned is your master's way, which is very different from mine. You can't learn my martial arts. But when it comes to official career, I earned my income from local swords and swords. You have gained fame and are used to seeing the blood and tears of the wronged souls of ordinary people. I will not let you follow my old path again. You should be obedient and go to Jinyiwei!"

Ye Fei hesitated and said: "But, Jinyiwei..." His adoptive father continued: "——Jinyiwei specializes in trapping people with thorns and trapping Zhongliang, right?" Ye Fei nodded.

The adoptive father said: "The Jinyiwei Experience Department, the Zhenfu Department and the Seventeenth Institute all have different divisions of labor, and they are not all minions. Let's go to the Experience Department and manage some military pay, food, archives and documents. It will save you money. It's stained with blood. This is also what your godmother means. Although he is usually distant from you, he is actually afraid that he will annoy you by being overly attentive. After giving birth to your sister, she has secretly begun to find a suitable girl for you, hoping to find a suitable girl for you. You make a family..."

Ye Fei's nose felt sour when he heard this, and he said no more. Then I heard my adoptive father say: "You went to work as an errand in Jinyiwei. Firstly, you are following the old rules. Secondly, I want you to have a good experience so that I can get a title for you in the future. You will always be able to have some salary in the future, and you will not have to work for a living." . Your godmother and I have no children, so I will depend on you in the future."

Seeing that his adoptive father showed his true feelings again, Ye Fei nodded in agreement and went to the back hall to thank the princess again and again.

Early the next morning, Ye Fei resigned from the princess's consort and was led by his servants to the Jinyiwei Yamen next to Ertiao Hutong.

Knowing that he was the adopted son of Princess Chongning, the commander of the Jinyi Guards made an exception and came to the government office to greet him. Ye Fei had read poetry and books, and was naturally polite and thoughtful, which also made the conductor very comfortable.

The commander, named Song Mingzhong, personally led Ye Fei around the Jinyiwei Yamen, and finally led him to the Jinyiwei Experience Department. The people on the left and right brought a set of clothes and asked Ye Fei to put it on. Seeing that it was an official uniform, Ye Fei hurriedly declined and said: "My subordinate is new to the report and knows nothing about the Jinyiwei Yamen. I'd better wait for my subordinate to get familiar with it." Put it on again!"

Song Zhongdao said: "This morning, the inner court has handed down a document, Zhu Chong Ninggong asked his son to serve as a royal guard for hundreds of households, and he was rewarded with flying fish uniforms." Ye Fei had to kneel down to thank him for his kindness, and he was busy thanking the commander of Song Dynasty.

Commander Song forced Ye Fei to put it on, but Ye Fei couldn't resist. After another round of kowtows to God, he put on the silver-white Feiyu uniform. Song Zhong summoned two more general bannermen, who were obviously to help with official affairs, but in fact they were the masters assigned to him to handle official affairs. Ye Fei greeted them with courtesy for a while, and finally in the afternoon, he read a few documents.

After the children in the princess's mansion turned 100 years old, Ye Fei became familiar with official duties. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather allowed, and Ye Fei was tired of dealing with money and food accounts and documents all day long. In the afternoon of this day, he handed over the official documents to the two generals under his command, and took advantage of the opportunity to relax and stroll over. A heavily guarded pavilion.

There is neither a tablet nor a plaque here. It is neither an important place for imprisoning important prisoners nor a warehouse for collecting gold and silver. Ye Fei has always been curious, and now he finally plucked up the courage to step forward to find out.

Before Ye Fei walked in, the guards on the left and right had drawn out their embroidered spring knives to stop him, and shouted: "This is a confidential place. No one is allowed to enter without the command of the commander." Ye Fei saw this posture, Then he turned around and left. After passing the corner of Zang Tower, he suddenly saw a figure jumping up to the cornice of the second floor, and then disappeared.

Xiaoye Fei thought that he was very brave and dared to break into Jinyiwei's yamen, so he immediately used Qinggong to catch up. After ten years of hard study, Ye Fei has already mastered his skills. Even though the guards around him have special skills, they have never discovered it.

After chasing him past the foot of the building, he saw a small window on the second floor open, and Ye Fei got angry and jumped in.

There was insufficient light in the building and it was dim, with rows of bookshelves neatly lined up. Ye Fei searched around, but still found no trace of the thief. He was about to return the same way and report the matter to the peak. When he turned around, he saw clearly After noticing the sign on the bookshelf, I suddenly thought that this person was so skilled and sneaked into this place secretly, thinking that he was trying to steal some secret files, so he searched for where they were missing one by one.

The outer ones contain the secret files of personnel from various departments of Jinyiwei. The inner ones contain the secret files of officials at all levels of the county government. The inner ones contain the files of various feudal officials, then the secret files of generals at all levels, and the innermost ones. They were the secret files of important ministers of ministries, cabinet ministers, and clan nobles. Ye Fei hurriedly scanned them and did not see the words "Princess Chongning's Mansion" and "Prince Consort Prince Consort", and was about to start over and search carefully. . When he turned around, he saw a few small gold-labeled words on a row of shorter shelves against the wall: "This Dynasty's Green Forest Secret File."

What a coincidence, facing him, there are a few lines of small words: "Secret Files of the Kongtong Sect." Isn't Master Chu Jianghan the master of the Kongtong Sect? Ye Fei immediately opened the box, took out a thick stack of books, and read from the beginning.

I roughly flipped through the first few volumes, but they were just chronological records of several major events that happened in the Kongtong sect on a certain day, a certain year, a certain month, such as when and where an elder became immortal, and what level of martial arts cultivation a famous master reached. After waiting for a long time, I finally saw the Taoist names listed in the following order: "In a certain year of Jiajing, Master Ziyang Zhenren received 18 monk disciples and nine lay disciples." The last one was "Chu Jianghan".

Ye Fei's heart beat faster and he flipped through a few more books and saw "On a certain day in a certain year in Jiajing, Master Ziyang drove his disciple Chu Jianghan down the mountain. The reason was unknown. A fellow disciple said that Master Ziyang could know the future. , this move is to temper the disciple Chu." In the next volume, I found another line of small words: "In a certain year of Jiajing, the ancient famous sword 'Zhenyue' appeared in the green forest. Various martial arts factions chased it, and the leader sent Elder Tie The Shou Taoist went down the mountain to meet various sects, and met Chu Jianghan in Chang'an City. Chu relied on his skills to show off, and was frivolous towards Emei disciple Shen Qiuyue. The Iron Shou Taoist rebuked him, but Chu stopped."

When Ye Fei saw the records about Chu Jianghan, he no longer had the patience to read line by line. He stuffed the secret files of the book into the box, planning to look for an opportunity to take a closer look. He hurriedly dug out the second pile, brushed off the dust and took a closer look. It turned out to be the biography of the former head of the Kongtong Sect. A few volumes down, there were the biographies of the former elder, the current head, and the current elder. At the bottom, it was astonishingly: A copy of "Chu Jiang Han".

Xiao Yefei's heart was surging, and he slowly opened the book with trembling hands: "Chu Jianghan, his ancestral home is in Jiangnan, his father was a merchant, and he had a relationship with Yang Wentai, the censor. His father died early, and his mother raised him. He worshiped the Kongtong sect on a certain day of a certain year in Jiajing. The leader was a teacher, and he practiced the 'Thirty-Six Ways of Wind Spirit Palm'. He learned it and went down the mountain in a certain month of a certain year..." "In a certain year of Jiajing, the famous ancient sword 'Zhen Yue' appeared in the green forest and the heroes competed for it, and Chu would get it. . In the same year, he met Shaolin Jueqing and Quanzhen Yumai Yiqing Taoists, and they each taught Shaolin's unique skill 'Xumi Sanyin' and the Chongyang secret skill 'Seventy-two Danyang Sword Techniques'..." "Renjiang Renyouwei with Nanyang celebrities We first met when we visited the famous Hongmei Tower actress Mei Huahong."

"The Plum Blossom Red is the daughter of Yang Wentai, the master of the demon sect's Suzaku Altar, 'Xuan Yi Peacock'. 'Xuan Yi Peacock' has other biographies, so I can't list them all. On that day, the 'Red Hand Ling Tu' met Yang for the first time in Hongmei Tower. Female, Zhang Ji has another biography, so I won’t go into details. On that day, Chu killed several people with his sword, and since then there has been a sensation in the martial arts world..."

"Wangxiang Pavilion and Ren Jiang have become sworn brothers. Not long ago, they went to Xianyun Village together to meet the 'Seven Elites of China' for the first time. For details, please see "Xianyun Village", so I won't repeat it..."

When I looked down again, the next page was torn out. Ye Fei thought to himself: "With this recording method, these few pages of Master's content will definitely be mentioned elsewhere. As long as you have read the biographies of relevant people, you will not worry about being unable to restore Master's experiences." He was patient at the moment. Xingzi looked down.

"...All the heroes gathered in Mount Tai. Chu, alone with a single sword on his back, carried Xu Daozi, the leader of the Xuanwu Hall of the Demon Sect, and fought his way out of the siege. Four people, including the Crazy Beggar Clan, Abbot Jueming of Shaolin, Master Chongxuan of Wudang, and the Mad Monk of the Emei Sect,... With the combined efforts of his talents, he could not stop him, and from then on Chu became a powerful figure in the world."

"The leader of the martial arts alliance led his troops to break up the troops in Futon Cave, Yunnan. Later, Song Zhong, the guard with golden swords, wooden swords and golden clothes, arrived and led his troops. There was no trace of the demon sect. Xu Daozi, the leader of the Xuanwu Hall of the demon sect, poisoned Chu. He was captured by Jin Yiwei while he was in a coma. Mu Jian used a clever trick to imprison Chu Jianghan in the dungeon of the Shaolin Temple. From then on, Chu made friends with the leader of the demon sect, Shang Jiutian, and gained his trust. For details, see "The Great Breaking of the White Lotus Sect", so I won't go into details here. "

Ye Fei read from the beginning until "The sword was returned and commended as the 'No. 1 Sword in the World', and the marriage was granted to Xianyun Village." The next two pages were torn out. The content from now on is "accepting Ye Fei as a disciple and being buried in Shennongjia." and so on.

Ye Feicao was already in tears after reading the biography. The three most important pages of his master's biography were torn out. He vaguely felt that the person who injured his master and framed Xianyun Village must have a close relationship with Jin Yiwei. Thinking of this, he I felt a faint chill on my back. So he carefully put the files back to their original places one by one, and found the files about Xianyun Village. When he was about to flip through it, a strong smoke came to his nostrils, and someone outside the building shouted: "Come here quickly. Ah! It’s gone!”

There are too many files in Xianyun Village, they are too thick, and they are all wrapped in kraft paper in sets, so they cannot be taken away in a hurry. Seeing that the smoke was getting bigger and bigger, Ye Fei put the files about Xianyun Village back to their original place before he could think about it.

Suddenly he saw a stack of large booklets on the right hand side, not wrapped into a bundle with brown paper. The top one had a few large red letters written on it: "Martial Arts Ranking". Ye Fei reached out and touched the top book and put it into his arms. He cheered up and jumped out through the window where he came from. Then, taking advantage of the thick smoke and crowds of people below, and no time to take precautions, he jumped to a distance and pretended again. Come and put out the fire.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger. Seeing the raging fire burning in Nuo Da's attic, the commanders of the Jinyiwei and others who came after hearing the sound could only beat their chests and sigh while looking at the raging fire.

When the sun set over the west mountain, the fire was extinguished. Most of the secret files in the pavilion were reduced to ashes, and the rest were buried in the ruins with ash and water.

Ye Fei deliberately rushed to the front, his Feiyu suit was burned to the point of being ripped and wrinkled, his hair was burned, and his face was even more smeared than Bao Gong. When he left, the guard saw how embarrassed he was in fighting the fire, so he made an exception and did not search his body. The "Martial Arts Ranking" was also taken out of the Jinyiwei gate by Ye Fei.

It is said that bad things spread thousands of miles. The fire at the Jinyiwei Yamen has long been reported to the princess's house. Ye Fei returned home. The princess had already ordered someone to prepare hot water and rice. Ye Fei hid the booklet in his arms beside the bed in a panic. After a random bath, the princess held the baby in her arms and personally watched Ye Fei eat and drink enough, and urged Ye Fei to rest early.

Ye Fei used the light to slowly open the "Martial Arts Ranking" side. Due to the fire, sweat, and splashing water to extinguish the fire, it inevitably got wet. The cover and the first few pages were already standing in the same place as Feiyu Sui, and they could no longer be seen clearly. The handwriting on it has changed. The first page of the booklet has become "The Second Master in the Martial Arts". Above it are the three characters "Shang Jiutian", and below it is "The leader of the White Lotus Sect, the three unique skills." At the bottom is a line of Zhu's regular script: "Jiajing One year, he was defeated by the combined swordsmanship of heaven, earth, and man, and committed suicide."

The next page is: "The third martial arts master: Chu Jianghan. Special skills: 72nd Danyang Sword Technique, Shaolin Xumi Three Leads, Kongtong 36th Wind Spirit Palm." There is also a line of inscriptions at the bottom: "Internal Strength When everything was lost, he was hunted down by the Yueyang Clan and buried in the bottomless pit of Shennongjia."

Ye Fei let out a long sigh and thought to himself: "When my master was alive, he was the third best martial arts master in the world, but he didn't want to die at the hands of a bunch of Xiaoxiao!"

The next page is: "The fourth master of martial arts: Shaolin Juetong. Special skills: Yijin Marrow Cleansing Sutra, Vajra Subduing Demon Palm, some of the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin." There is also a line of inscriptions at the bottom: "The seventy-two Shaolin skills have been cultivated. Unknown skill."

Then there is Shaolin Jueqing, who has the unique skill Xumi Sanyin of Qinggong and the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin.

Followed by Taoist Yiqing, Yunyang Zhenren, Abbot Jueming, Crazy Beggar Wu Mingming, Wooden Sword Shenqu, Invincible Divine Sword Xue Zongchang, Xuanwu Xu Daozi, Nanyang celebrity Ren Jiang, Jinyiwei Song Zhong, Jinyiwei Chen Zhang, Jindao Divine Catcher, Qinglong Sect Bai Yuan, White Tiger Shangguan Xiongyi, Tongbei Sage Lu Yunhan, Fiery Shield Jiang Feng, Thunder Hand Zhou Dalei, Sword God Zhao Wei, Wudang Nine Sons, Shaolin Eight Elders, Suzaku Shang Fengyi, Tibetan Monk Danzeng, Quanzhen Ten Swords, Wudang Chongxuan, Four Heroes Outside the Pass, Three Dian Cang Swords, Overlord Spear Cheng Xinba, Soul Chasing Judge Luo Huan, Two Immortals of Kongtong, Lonely Beggar, Two Crazy Monks, etc., all in the martial arts world. Names and surnames, including masters practicing in famous caves in various fairy mountains, were also registered one by one and arranged in order.

At the end of the booklet, the "Four Palms, Three Swords and Eight Divine Fists" in the martial arts were listed in detail. Ye Fei took a breath of cold air after reading it. It turned out that Jin Yiwei's hard work over the years had transformed all the various sects in the martial arts. His old background was thoroughly touched, and his magical powers can be seen clearly.

Ye Fei thought about it and found that his intention to serve in Jinyiwei had been reduced by half, and the only reason that could convince him was that Jinyiwei's hands and eyes were all-pervasive, and the truth about Xianyun Village back then must be in Jinyiwei's secret files. Now that a fire has burned all Jin Yiwei's secret files, it will take a lot of experience to find out the truth in the future.

Suddenly, he thought that there must be an inevitable connection between the figure today and the fire that followed, and he made up his mind that he would use all-around skills to uncover that figure in the future.

When he got up the next morning, Ye Fei burned the "Martial Arts Ranking" and arrived at the Jinyiwei Yamen Office early. After reporting the damage to the Feiyu suit, he heard the command from his subordinates saying that the commander of the Jinyiwei was at the martial arts venue. Mao, hurriedly followed the two of them to the martial arts arena.

The generals of the guards lined up, and a bearded man with a leopard head and ringed eyes in the middle of the field began to lecture. The content was nothing more than the leakage of the Secret Service, and the generals and the generals of the guards were all to blame.

The big man was frothing at what he said. Ye Fei was confused when he heard what he said. His commander hurriedly introduced in a low voice: "This is the commander of our Imperial Guard Chen Zhang and Chen." Ye Fei wondered: "The regulations of this dynasty stipulate that, There is only one Commander of Jinyiwei, isn't he Commander Song Zhongsong? Where did Commander Chen appear?"

The commander hurriedly introduced: "Commander Chen is the sworn brother of Commander Song. Because he made great contributions to defeating the White Lotus Sect ten years ago, the Holy Emperor issued a decree and promoted him to Commander of the Jinyi Guards, with a third-grade official title. He is actually in charge of the current Jin Yiwei. Although he is under our Commander Song, he cannot be said to be his deputy. We usually run errands, so we must be careful and not fall into his hands."

But seeing Chen Zhang scolding him for a while, he arranged for the Experience Department to count the remaining confidential files and register them. On the other hand, someone investigated the cause of the fire and wrote a document to make up for the expenses.

Ye Fei followed along and made enough superficial preparations. In the afternoon, he made an excuse to touch the area near Chen Zhang's office and eavesdropped.

Commander Chen was a typical rough man. When he heard the report on the amount of losses and the reconstruction budget, he grunted indiscriminately. After a long time of fussing, another spy from Beizhen Fusi came to report. The man whispered in Chen Zhang's ear. After a while, Chen Zhang frowned.

Ye Fei's skills improved, and his adoptive father specially taught him how to use his inner skills to make inquiries, so he could hear the conversation between the two of them clearly.

It turned out that a secret agent under the Zhenfu Division came to report that there was a wealthy businessman in Huguang who was willing to pay 500,000 taels to go south to buy an ancient sword. Because the amount was huge, the wealthy businessman used silver to bribe the Huguang Dusi Yamen. The local government actually wanted Send troops to escort.

Chen Zhang pondered for a long time and was about to give instructions in a low voice when he suddenly looked up and saw Ye Fei who was eavesdropping. The two looked at each other, and Commander Chen's eyes were wide open. His gaze could not be said to be vicious, but it was not kind at all. It seemed to have some unspeakable meaning.

Ye Fei seemed to have received an electric shock, and suddenly remembered that he had a relationship with Commander Chen. Back then, he fled to the capital to avoid being chased thousands of miles away, and was saved by the kind-hearted Master Ma. Mr. Chen is among his peers.

It has been ten years since I stayed in the princess's mansion and relied on the protection of my adoptive father and adoptive mother to grow up. Now I not only have the status of a public son, but also got this job because of it.

Thinking that he had never asked about the benefactors who had helped him in the past ten years, Ye Fei couldn't help but feel sad and his cheeks were burning.

Commander Chen withdrew his gaze and ordered very naturally: "Immediately go to Huguang with the text and ask the people responsible for supervising the Xingdu Si Yamen to remind you." The left and right people were puzzled: "Sir, this is not in line with our practice. !”

Commander Chen glared and said: "Huh? How much manpower and material resources have been spent by Beizhen Fusi in supervising the Green Forest Jianghu over the years, and how many brothers have died to achieve today's peaceful situation? I guess there is going to be trouble. , ask your subordinates to give the local government a heads up, and we might be able to avoid a lot of trouble. Even if trouble occurs, as long as the local government is not involved, it will be easier for us to deal with it!"

Commander Chen was praised repeatedly for his cleverness, but Ye Fei no longer had the intention to eavesdrop. He turned around and went back to the mission room. He had no intention of handling official documents all afternoon.

The next day, Ye Fei went about his business as usual. Suddenly someone came to summon him, saying that the commander Chen Zhang wanted to see him. Ye Fei immediately dressed up and came to see him. Chen Zhang sat firmly at his desk. When he saw Ye Fei, he looked him up and down, and then said, "Boy, do you still remember me?"

Ye Fei bowed and replied: "If it wasn't for my benefactor, I think I would have starved to death long ago." Chen Zhang waved his hand and said: "These are your personal creations. You first met an expert to teach you skills, and then you were taught by princesses, The prince-in-law favors you, and you have become a relative of the emperor, and it is too late for others to envy you!"

Jin Yiwei monitors the world, and the details of anyone who can serve in Jin Yiwei will be turned upside down. When Commander Chen mentioned his origin, Ye Fei didn't know how to answer the question for a while, so he just clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Yes, I must fulfill my humble duties to repay the kindness and cultivation of all my benefactors.”

Chen Zhang looked Ye Fei up and down again, nodded and said: "Seeing that you are breathing calmly, you have mastered martial arts under the personal training of the Prince Consort over the years. There is an errand here now, and I think it is more appropriate to send you there."

Ye Fei cupped his fists and bowed and said: "I am willing to do as I please." Chen Zhang picked up an official document from the table and said: "Yesterday you also heard that the Huguang Xingdu Si Yamen was going to do some extraordinary business with local wealthy businessmen. Here The Green Forest Gang is also involved. Maybe there will be trouble. I will give you the job of a secret envoy. As long as you deliver this secret letter, you will have completed your mission."

Hearing that he was going to Beijing on business, Ye Fei felt happy and hurriedly took the official document and thanked him again and again. Commander Chen said: "Boy, don't be too happy. There are gold and silver, swords, local troops, and green forest bandits here. If you go out this time, it will be a great achievement. This is also in line with the purpose of the princess's consort sending you here to get some credit. If something goes wrong, you will be the one in charge!"

After hearing what Chen Zhang said, Ye Fei couldn't help but muttered: "Isn't this a case where the local military colluded with wealthy businessmen to make a deal with the Green Forest Gang? How could there be any big trouble? Could it really cause a fight between officials and bandits? Is there a big case of killing an official and rebelling? Even so, there are laws and departments to deal with, and it is not my turn to be a messenger who delivers secrets."

Even so, he did not dare to be careless, so he said to Commander Chen: "Master Qi, I am a new member of the Jinyi Guards. I just received the protection of my adoptive mother and adoptive father, and got a salary from the sixth rank. It's the job of a clerk. I have never handled a case before, and I have never worked with a teacher before. Speaking of handling a case, this is the first time I have gone out on business. The commanding officer is willing to cultivate me, and I am grateful to you, but I feel that this trip is a heavy responsibility. , can you please send a senior in this field to go with you?"

Chen Zhang stroked his steel beard, nodded and said with a smile: "Boy, it seems you still know how to measure. I have made arrangements to send a small flag specializing in Huguang affairs to accompany you. If you don't understand, Yes, just ask him!" A young man dressed as a servant came in outside the talking room. He first saw Commander Chen, and then saluted Ye Fei Fei: "You are a humble minister, Ye Fu, see the young master!" Ye Fei knew that this was Even though he had a false name, he didn’t dare to ask any more questions, so he returned the courtesy and said, “I hope you can give me more advice, senior.”

Chen Zhang ordered: "Take Ye Fu home now, report to the princess's consort, and quietly leave the city overnight. I have already said hello to the city guards and will let you two out."

After Ye Fei resigned from Chen Zhang, he took the little flag to the princess mansion. When the princess learned that Jinyiwei was going to send Ye Fei out of the capital for business, she first complained to Ye Fei with a straight face about Song Zhong and Chen Zhang for a while, then she smiled and invited the little flag into the back hall and ordered someone to prepare a banquet. Can't wait to entertain.

When the prince-in-law learned that Jinyiwei was going to send Ye Fei out of the capital for business, he was silent for a long time and then said, "This is also an opportunity for you to make some achievements." He led Ye Fei to the training room, took out a sword, and said : "This was left behind by your second uncle ten years ago. It was originally a sword passed down from ancestors of Quanzhen Sect. The name of the sword is 'Li Qiu'. At that time, Yao Daoxu, the second generation disciple of Quanzhen Sect, was killed for some reason. In the hands of your second uncle, he gave the accessories to you in accordance with the rules of the Quanzhen Sect. Your second uncle said it was a gift, but in fact it was just like losing a bet. Now that you are successful in swordsmanship, you will go south this time. Just bring it with you when you go on business! You can also use it when you go on business in Jinyiwei."

Ye Fei took the sword, pulled out the blade, and fell into deep memories: Back then, the second uncle took off the sword from his waist and handed it to him. Later, his adoptive father was like a crane, using only his left leg. Jumped out, and his right leg was severed from the knee down...

Seeing Ye Fei looking at the sword in ecstasy, the Prince Consort said: "Don't underestimate this Li Qiu Sword. No sword forged by Jinyiwei is as strong as it. I'm afraid only your master's Zhenyue Sword in the world can kill it." Break it!" As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the beams, and was stunned as usual.

Ten years ago, little Ye Fei was just a wandering beggar. He left his hometown to beg for food and suffered all kinds of hardships and humiliation. But ten years later, Ye Fei is already a member of the clan. He has learned martial arts and is about to follow the ten-year journey. The route to Beijing returns to these starting points.
