Wan'an Temple, night, top of the thirteen-story pagoda.
There was a small table, a pot of wine, and a plate of peanuts. Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min sat opposite each other.
Faced with Zhao Min's aggressiveness, Zhang Wuji, who was once again persuaded by the Mingjiao followers, retreated and even dared to lower his head.
Under the table, on a low table covered with brocade, stood a pair of feet wearing a pair of goose-yellow satin shoes with a bright pearl on each toe.
Zhang Wuji's heart moved. When he saw the delicate soles of these feet and the round ankle bones, as a medical expert, he suddenly felt his heart beat faster and wanted to study them carefully.
This is the professional quality of a doctor.
Zhao Min smiled slightly and said slowly: "Sometimes I think to myself, if I am not a Mongolian, and I am not a princess, but just like Miss Zhou, a Han girl from a commoner family, then you might think of me. Better.
Mr. Zhang, do you think I am more beautiful, or Miss Zhou? "
Zhang Wuji didn't expect that she would ask this question. He raised his head and saw her infinite beauty under the light, so he couldn't help but blurt out: "Of course you are beautiful."
"Pfft~" Zhao Min smiled sweetly, but he felt proud in his heart.
Unlike other aristocratic women, she has practiced martial arts and studied since she was a child. She vowed to be better than her brother and gain more attention from her father.
There is a saying in the art of war: go to war and defeat the enemy.
And her biggest weapons now are her appearance and body, so she must take advantage of them.
And this Zhang Wuji is her only support now. As long as she has the support of Zhang Zhenren and Zhou Zhenren, or even a response, she can save the Ruyang Palace from suffering.
Those powerful men are truly terrifying, and a single word may shake the world.
According to her plan, as long as the Ruyang Palace is responsible for the innovation, it will surely be able to control the country's military strength. When the time comes, it can win over people's hearts, subdue the masters, and then accept the Ming Cult as its own.
When necessary, why can't their family do what the emperor and others do?
Even if Wu Zetian can become the queen, will she also have the chance to aspire to the supreme throne?
"Miss Zhao, what are you thinking about?" Zhang Wuji asked curiously.
Zhao Min paused and smiled sweetly: "I'm thinking, looking at history for thousands of years, every time when the people of the world and hundreds of millions of people are in dire straits, there is always a hero who appears to save the people from the fire and water, unify the world, and let everyone live and work in peace and contentment.
And isn’t that what we are doing now? Brother Wuji, you are the hero in my heart! "
As he spoke, Zhao Min looked at Zhang Wuji, his eyes moved, and he smiled sweetly.
Wuji was shocked, and he seemed to smell the fragrance of her body. He saw that the girl's cheeks were flushed, and she was as beautiful as a begonia.
This girl understands him!
"Zhizhi~" A black shadow flashed past, as if a big bat floated to the top of the tower.
"Report to the leader." Wei Yixiao clasped his fists and bowed to report. When he saw Zhao Min next to him, he stopped talking.
Because Zhang Wuji cured his cold poison, and people in the world are the most loyal, so he swore that day after that, only the leader of the church would follow his lead.
Zhang Wuji waved his hand: "The princess is not an outsider, so tell me."
Zhao Min:......
This sentence seems ominous.
"Both Wudang and Emei have received replies!" Wei Yixiao said honestly.
"Oh?" Zhao Min was very surprised: "How did they respond?"
According to her layout, as long as there is a reply, even if it is just a "hmm", she can do many, many things.
Wei Yixiao hesitated for a moment, then facing the expectant looks in Zhang Wuji's eyes, he said honestly: "Master Zhou didn't even read the letter. After Master Zhang read the letter, he just told me to get out!"
Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min looked at each other in silence.
Why don't these two people understand them? If we solve the problem without fighting, wouldn't it save a lot of lives?
"Dongdongdong~" Another Mingjiao subordinate came up to report, and Zhao Min hesitated when he saw it.
Zhang Wuji waved his hand: "Here..." Zhao Min directly covered his mouth.
"explain!"
The subordinates looked at the actions of the two men and said helplessly: "Tomorrow at noon, everyone in the Ruyang Prince's Mansion, except Princess Zhao Min, will be executed!"
Zhao Min's face turned pale and his breathing became stagnant.
Why, why doesn't everything in this world go according to her plan? What did she do wrong?
…
Prince Zhao's Mansion.
Zhao Qiang begged his own father: "Father, please let Minmin's family go, otherwise she will blame me!"
The seventh prince picked up the tea cup, frowned, and drank the tea helplessly, remaining unmoved no matter how much his son asked.
After a long time, Zhao Qiang knelt on the ground with a firm expression and said loudly: "Father, what exactly do you want me to do to make you let Minmin's family go?"
The seventh prince shook his head. Why would a hero like him have such a useless son?
Aren’t women just tools for giving birth and regulating emotions?
Of course, except for that Zhou Zhenren! The Seventh Prince thought sincerely.
After a moment of silence, the seventh prince stood up and pulled Zhao Qiang up: "Follow me."
Zhao Qiang was a little confused. After a while, he came to his father's bedroom and was even more confused.
You must know that under normal circumstances, my father handles confidential matters here, and he rarely has the opportunity to be allowed to come here.
Opening the door, the Seventh Prince directly pushed him in and cursed: "You bitch, look at the people inside, and think about it again, what exactly is a woman?"
Zhao Qiang almost fell, but he managed to hold on. When he entered, he saw a girl wearing a red wedding dress lying on the bed. She was fair-skinned, beautiful, and had a graceful figure.
He looked closely and exclaimed: "Sister-in-law?"
It turns out that the woman on the bed is Zhao Min's brother's concubine.
The woman on the bed opened her eyes and saw Zhao Qiang. A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly closed her eyes and spread her hands, revealing a touch of whiteness.
this? ? ?
Zhao Qiang was in awe.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Qiang gritted his teeth, turned around, and was ready to go out.
"Your Majesty, no, if you go out, I will die. I want to live." The woman on the bed said quietly.
Zhao Qiang was stunned for a moment, remembering his father's methods in the past. After a long time, he turned around, sighed, and entered with Yiyi.
…
Half a day later, Zhao Qiang returned to the living room and found Minmin, who had been thinking about it day and night, talking to his father.
As expected of his sweetheart, now he is a prisoner of the imperial court, and he actually dares to commit danger himself.
The seventh prince saw his son coming and said with a smile: "You guys chat, I have something else to do."
After that, leave directly.
Seeing Zhao Qiang arriving, Zhao Min breathed a sigh of relief.
The seventh prince was so impeccable and cunning that there was nothing she could do about it. But Zhao Qiang was different. According to her calculations, with his ability, he could easily change his family's identity and even delay his execution for a few days.
When the time comes, it will be easy for me to lead the Ming Cult masters to rob prisoners.
When King Ruyang is rescued, she will repay her father's kindness in raising her. When the weather is hot and birds fly, she can do everything she wants.
For example: leading the Ming Cult to build the country she wants to build.
Ming, this country name is not bad!
After thinking about it, Zhao Min stood in front of Zhao Qiang and smiled sweetly: "Brother Zhao, do you think I look good today?"
Zhao Qiang stared at the woman in his dream before him. The two of them had not been in contact with each other for a long time at such a close distance.
Originally, he should have been extremely excited, with ups and downs in his heart, but for some reason, he felt calm now. He hesitated for a moment and said, "It's normal!"
Zhao Min was stunned:? ? ?
As the most beautiful woman in Mongolia, Zhao Min had doubts about her charm for the first time. Didn't she wash her face today?
Zhao Min quickly grabbed Zhao Qiang's hand. It was a little wet and sticky. Did you just wash your hands?
"Brother Zhao, you have always been the big brother I admire. With our relationship, can you do me a small favor?
I won't make it difficult for you. As long as you postpone my father's execution for a few days, or change the cell tonight, is that okay? "Zhao Min bit her lip, pitifully, and begged.
The distance was even closer, and Zhao Qiang had a deeper feeling. His lips were soft and his nose was fragrant.
But he remembered the information he had obtained when he had an in-depth interaction with the Crown Princess just now. These days, Minmin and Zhang Wuji have been spending time together and have become very close to each other.
Thinking again of my father’s past teachings.
Dog woman, nothing more than that!
"No!" Zhao Qiang said calmly.
Zhao Min:? ? ? ?
She suddenly understood an old saying of the Han people: plans are never as fast as changes.
…
The second day, the execution ground.
The two elders Xuanming and Ming stood in front of the supervisor with their arms folded and looked menacing. At first glance, they looked like loyal and good people.
Zhao Qiang was sitting in the main seat with calm eyes, as if he could see everything indifferently.
The people watching were very lively pointing and pointing.
For them, as long as a big shot falls, no matter what the reason is, it is a happy thing to hear.
Happy, maybe just because this big shot's life is much better than theirs.
Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji in the crowd looked cautious.
Tribulating the law field is tantamount to directly challenging the majesty of Dayuan, although their Ming sect often does this kind of thing.
But it was different today. The sharp-eyed Zhao Min easily noticed that all the masters of the Ruyang Prince's Palace were now recruited by the Seventh Prince to seriously 'send off' Prince Ruyang's final journey.
After all, it used to be a master-servant relationship, but now it can be regarded as giving each other 'respect'.
If King Ruyang does not die, how can they feel at ease loyal to the Seventh Prince, and how can the Seventh Prince accept their allegiance with peace of mind.
The strength of these masters is not much different from that of Mingjiao, and they also have Zhang Wuji, one of the top five in the world. What depresses Zhao Min the most is that there are obviously explosives buried under the execution ground, and there are corresponding fuses at the four corners around it, and they are guarded by specialized personnel.
On the surrounding city walls, there are cannons and crossbows.
This arrangement was exactly the same as when she threatened Zhang Wuji, almost impeccable.
Looking at Zhang Wuji, Zhao Minmin pursed his lips.
Under this arrangement, even if the Mingjiao were to take action, they would probably be able to save her father alone at most, but it would cause the Mingjiao to lose its troops and its strength would be greatly reduced.
By then, let alone fighting for the dragon, the relationship with her may be completely broken, and she will become a real loner.
Zhao Min looked at her father who had doted on her on the stage, thinking a lot.
As a girl, she could control the military in a country like Dayuan and command so many masters, all because of her father's trust and support.
Since the father loves her so much, why not love her one last time? Use their deaths to completely free yourself from your identity as a Mongolian princess, so that you can stand cleanly on the side of the Ming Cult?
With her intelligent support and her relationship with the officials and soldiers of the Mingjiao, the Mingjiao has a huge advantage over other rebels.
In the future, if Zhang Wuji can really become the head of the new dynasty, then she will be the queen, and their child will be the prince. They will also inherit the bloodline of King Ruyang and pass on the Tuotuo family.
I believe that I have made this wise decision, and my father will be happy even under Jiuquan.
"Minmin, do you want to do something?" Zhang Wuji asked.
Zhao Min held Zhang Wuji's big hand tightly and shook his head gently, with a sad expression.
Zhang Wuji's heart moved, this woman had nothing but him. She has sacrificed everything for herself and the people of the world.
My mother was wrong!
Beautiful women don’t necessarily lie!
…
On the supervisory platform, Zhao Qiang looked up at the sky. The sun had just risen in the east, and it was not far from noon when the sun was shining. He gave the deer stick guest next to him a wink.
Luzhangke stepped forward and clasped his fists at King Ruyang who was kneeling on the ground and said: "King Ruyang, Emperor Yuan has ordered that you have worked hard and achieved great results. This time you failed to suppress the rebellion, and you are suspected of treason. There may be other reasons.
If you have any grievances, we can help you tell them and maybe get them vindicated. "
King Ruyang raised his head, his eyes were about to burst, and his mouth was whining. Although his mouth was tightly blocked, no words came out.
Obviously not wanting to say anything.
Luzhangke waited for a while, then turned around and said loudly to Zhao Qiang: "Your Majesty, King Ruyang has nothing to say and is willing to suffer the punishment."
Zhao Qiang:......
Executioner:......
People in the audience:......
The time has come for execution!
Zhao Min didn't dare to look any further, and simply threw herself into Zhang Wuji's arms, sobbing softly.
From now on, she and Dayuan will be at odds with each other!
…
After the death of King Ruyang, Yuan Ting no longer had a strong general. In addition, the peerless masters loyal to Yuan Ting were inspired by the Taoist and Buddhist teachings of Zhenren Zhang and Zhenren Zhou, and they rose to heaven one after another.
For a time, war broke out again in the four regions of the Great Yuan Dynasty, and some forces even directly established their own countries and proclaimed themselves emperors.
In 1353 AD, Zhang Shicheng led his troops to capture Gaoyou and was named "King of Wu", his country was named "Dazhou", and Jianyuan was named "Tianyou".
In 1355 AD, Zhang Wuji brought his Ming disciples to Bozhou (today's Bozhou, Anhui). He was named "King Xiao Ming", his country was named "Great Song", his reign was named "Longfeng", and he made Bozhou his capital.
In the same year, Guo Zixing, a subordinate of Mingjiao, died of illness. Zhang Wuji listened to Zhao Min's suggestion and appointed his son Guo Tianxu as the marshal of the capital, his wife's brother Zhang Tianyou as the right deputy marshal, and Zhu Yuanzhang as the left deputy marshal.
In 1360 AD, Chen Youliang killed Xu Shouhui and immediately ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. The country was named "Han" and the Yuan Dynasty was changed to "Dayi". It occupied three prefectures: Jiangxi, Hui, and Fujian, and the capital was Jiangzhou (today's Jiujiang, Jiangxi).
In the same year, Ming Yuzhen did not recognize Chen Youliang and wrote to Emei sect Zhou Zhenren to confirm that she had not received any reply. That is, with Zhou Zhenren's acquiescence, she claimed to be the king of Longshu and controlled Bashu.
The land of the Central Plains has once again become a place of four wars. The major forces are fighting openly and secretly, fighting and negotiating, and it is extremely lively.
Only around Mount Wudang and Mount Emei is truly peaceful and peaceful, and all forces have a tacit agreement not to disturb their cultivation.
Of course, everyone is not afraid, but respects the Buddhist scriptures.
Zhang Shicheng hugged each other, feeling very unhappy, and loudly ordered his subordinates: "As everyone knows, I not only believe in Taoism, but I also believe in Buddhism! From now on, everyone will follow me, Amitabha in the morning, and Immeasurable God in the evening!"
Men:......
