"Since ancient times, no one has ever died, so his loyalty will be reflected in history... What a saying: Since ancient times, no one has ever died, so his loyalty will be reflected in history!"
Zheng Tianqiong burst into action excitedly, remembering that when he was young, he followed his parents to make a living in the border fortress. All he encountered was that his compatriots were maimed and the weak were eaten by the strong. At that time, he was motivated to learn martial arts and serve the country. However, he failed to fulfill his wish and ended up living in the rivers and lakes... .
But even though he was trapped in the world, he never changed his ambition, he just never showed it to others. But now the sentence "No one has died since ancient times, and his loyalty will be remembered by history", which expresses exactly what he is thinking!
Although father and son Zheng Yong and Zheng Yun did not know what Zheng Tianqiong was thinking, they were moved by the aspiration in this poem and could not help but express admiration.
"His Royal Highness Prince Ding has only learned from others. I am afraid that this poem is not only my heart, but also His Highness's heart's ambition!" Zheng Tianqiong looked at Jiang Mu, his eyes were completely different from before, and became bright and clear.
When it comes to the title of a prince, he really doesn't pay much attention to it. After all, the position of the leader of the martial arts league is equivalent to the emperor of the martial arts world, and this martial arts world is not a martial arts world for ordinary people. The martial arts masters in this world can be one against a hundred. Masters like Zheng Tianqiong, who have reached the realm of Grand Masters, can only be dealt with by people who are also Grand Masters. The body-protecting Qi alone cannot be broken through by swords, guns, swords, halberds, and crossbows...
The reason why he gave Jiang Mu so much respect was because he didn't need help from his entourage and could get here on his own. Now, he really looked at the young prince in front of him.
"well!"
Jiang Mu sighed after hearing this, "The ambition of the Northern Jin Kingdom was so arrogant that even though it destroyed the Khitan and the Liao Dynasty, it was still not satisfied. It was obvious that it wanted to join the Song Dynasty. However, the Song Dynasty was dominated by treacherous ministers such as Cai Jing and Wang Fu, who deceived my father. The emperor, as a result, rebellions broke out all over the country, and the people were in dire straits. I dare to ask the old gentleman, if the Jin Kingdom raises its troops to invade, what should we, the Song Dynasty, do?"
Why did we talk about the imperial court and the Jin State? The Song Dynasty paid tribute to the Jin State every year, and the two countries had a treaty. When did the Jin State say that it would invade the Song Dynasty?
Zheng Yong, Zheng Yun and his son didn't know why, and looked at Zheng Tianqiong in confusion. Zheng Tianqiong looked solemn, thought for a while and said: "If the Jin soldiers go south, they will leave no warning and divide their routes. Given the current situation of the court, I'm afraid they won't be able to use it." In five years, the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed.”
"Father..."
This statement made Zheng Yong's expression change. As a prince, he can say whatever he wants, but how can a person outside the court say that the country will be ruined and the family will be ruined? Unexpectedly, Jiang Mu was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he shook his head with a wry smile: "Five years...the old man still thinks highly of it. Since the Yang family, in addition to guarding the Zhong Family Army in the West and the Zhe Family Army in the Northwest, there are also Who can stop the Jin cavalry head-on? With the 800,000 embroidered pillows in Tokyo? Or Yao Ping, who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Haha, I speculate that in less than two years, the Jin army will be able to reach Tokyo directly, without waiting for the arrival of Qin Wang's troops from all over the country. The city of Tokyo is destroyed, the people are massacred, and corpses are everywhere. My father, I and other royal families will be escorted to the north and suffer great shame and humiliation..."
How shameful was Jingkang, the emperor was captured, and the concubines and princesses served as military prostitutes. Jiang Mu hated it every time he thought about it, let alone said it out loud.
"this..."
Zheng Tianqiong was stunned for a moment. He felt that what he had said was very explicit. He didn't expect that this prince would dare to say more than him. He could also say the words "800,000 embroidered pillows in Tokyo" when the emperor was captured. For the first time in many years, he was speechless. Looking at the young man with a gloomy face and angry eyes, he suddenly felt that if he didn't do something, it would be too late...
"Your Highness's visit to our Hidden Sword Villa this time should be more than just a guest. If there is anything I need to do, Your Highness might as well ask directly..."
"Speaking" instead of "commanding" still left a way out for himself, but he was able to change "old man" to "old man". Jiang Mu was also very satisfied. Seeing that the foreshadowing had been done, he sorted out his words and said: "I really need your help, sir..."
"Let's not talk about the affairs of the Jin Kingdom for now. Now there are rebel bandits in the Song Dynasty. There is a bandit bandit in Songjiang in Shandong. They have gathered in Liangshanpo. At this time, they are raising troops to besiege Zhujiazhuang. They will be captured soon. I know that the old gentleman is here. Jianghu has a reputation of being idle, and I came here specifically to ask Mr. Zheng to come out and persuade Liangshan to retreat, so as to wish my family a safe life..."
Zheng Tianqiong asked: "Your Highness has asked for this, but someone else is asking for it?"
"No, it's just because Liangshan is getting bigger and bigger, and it may become the second Fang La. I want to use the Zhu family to contain it, so that I can have time to grow..."
Jiang Mu wanted to say something else, but after thinking about it, Zhujiazhuang didn't seem to have done anything good to benefit the country and the people, so he had to tell the truth.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded outside the hall: "Grandpa, grandfather..."
"Eh? Father and brother, you are all here. That's just right. It saves me the trouble of looking for it!" Zheng Qingyun rushed in carelessly, dragging Hu Qing with him who looked nervous.
"Grandfather, father, brother, this is the sworn eldest sister I told you, Hu Qing, known as Yi Zhang Qing Hu Sanniang..."
While she was introducing, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Jiang Mu, who was sitting in the host and guest seats. His expression paused, his mouth opened slightly, and various expressions of shock, surprise, shyness, etc. flashed quickly in his eyes...
"Qingyun, don't be too big or too small!" Zheng Yong scolded: "Why don't you come to see me..."
"Haha, I am the same age as your master and your daughter. Uncle Zheng does not need to be so polite." Jiang Mu quickly stood up, interrupted him, looked at Zheng Qingyun, and said with a smile: "Miss Zheng, I haven't seen you for a few days, miss." Feeling better and better..."
Zheng Qingyun is no longer as hot-tempered as before, and is much more ladylike: "Young Master Jiang is good at joking, and he is even more grateful for saving his life that day."
As he said that, he looked at his brother again and complained a little: "Brother, Mr. Jiang came to my Hidden Sword Villa and you didn't even inform me..."
Zheng Yun was a little surprised. In fact, when he saw Jiang Mu just now, he had doubted Jiang Mu's identity. He only regretted that his attention was all on the mosquito demon that day and did not pay attention to the followers around him. Now he only dared to confirm it after his own sister reminded him. , His Highness Prince Ding, is the man who saved his sister that day.
"Don't make trouble. Mr. Jiang is discussing important matters with his grandfather!" Zheng Yun did not dare to say anything and hurriedly asked his sister to retreat. As for Hu Qing, he nodded as a greeting.
Zheng Yong was not stupid. Knowing that Jiang Mu had interrupted him just now to hide his identity, he immediately followed his son's words and said: "Qingyun, my Hidden Sword Villa has beautiful scenery. You can take Madam Hu to visit first... "
Zheng Qingyun looked at Hu Qing apologetically, and the latter shook his head with a wry smile. Just when the two were about to leave, Jiang Mu suddenly said: "Slow down!"
Seeing everyone looking at him, he looked at Hu Qing and said, "Yizhang Qing Hu Sanniang, is this the daughter of the old lady Hu of Hujiazhuang, the one who is engaged to Zhu Biao of Zhujiazhuang?"
Hu Sanniang, whose original name is unknown, was originally the daughter of Hu Taigong of Hujiazhuang, Dulonggang. She was engaged to Zhu Biao of Zhujiazhuang. When Liangshan attacked Zhujiazhuang, Hujiazhuang sent Hu Sanniang to lead troops to reinforce.
Hu Qing bowed to Jiang Mu and said, "I am indeed the third daughter of Hujiazhuang, but I have no engagement with eldest brother Zhu Biao. I wonder where did you get the news?"
Who is this person who is so handsome in life, so worthy of Senior Zheng to pay so much attention to him? Moreover, he is considered to be an extraordinary person, could he be a descendant of some important sect?
"Maybe the rumors are wrong..." Jiang Mu vaguely revealed this, thinking that he was not engaged to Zhu Biao. It seemed that the situation was similar to that of "Mrs. Lin", but it was slightly different from what was recorded in the original world.
He stood up, looked at Zheng Tianqiong, and cupped his hands: "A great hero serves the country and the people. Mr. Zheng is a hero. I believe that I will make my own decision, so I will not interfere. It is getting late, so I will leave." ..”
Normally, Hu Sanniang should be in Zhujiazhuang now, and her appearance here probably has the same purpose as her own: to invite Zheng Tianqiong to come out.
After all this time, if Zheng Tianqiong still didn't agree, then he would be sorry for the poem he plagiarized for him.
"Young Master has said so, why does this old man have any reason to refuse?"
Fortunately, Zheng Tianqiong did not disappoint him. Jiang Mu smiled slightly, "That way, I won't bother you much..."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Zheng Tianqiong quickly said: "It's rare for the young master to come to my Hidden Sword Villa, so why should he leave without entering the Hidden Sword Pond? Yun'er, take the young master to the Hidden Sword Pond in the back mountain."
Hidden Sword Pond, where is that place?
Although he didn't know it, he could clearly feel that Chang Fu on the side became a little excited after hearing "Hidden Sword Pond". He knew that it was definitely a good place and immediately thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. Zheng..."
Zheng Tianqiong saw him off personally, and then Zheng Yun took him to the back mountain.
Zheng Qingyun originally wanted to say "I'll go too," but thinking that he had to stay to help Hu Qing, he had to give up.
It is said to be the back mountain, but it is actually between a mountain col. The scenery along the way is filled with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. No wonder the masters like to practice in the deep mountains. It is indeed better than cultivating themselves in the busy city. When the crisis of the Jin Kingdom is solved, he will also take it with him Zhu Lian came to a place like this to live in seclusion.
"It is said that this place was the place where immortals and demons fought in ancient times. Many powerful immortals died here, leaving behind countless magical weapons. Although thousands of years have passed, the former battlefield of immortals and demons has also been covered by lakes. But if it is a chance, It’s so deep, you can still find one or two magic weapons here.”
"Normally speaking, this place is a forbidden area of our Hidden Sword Villa. No one is allowed to enter. However, Your Highness saved my sister's life. In order to repay His Highness, my grandfather asked me to bring His Highness here. It will depend on Your Highness's own luck later. .”
Zheng Yun led the way while explaining the origin of the hidden sword pool.
"The place where immortals and demons fight...is it really an immortal?" Jiang Mu asked.
"That's right..." It was Changfu who spoke, "Master, do you know why there are so few immortals today, and why those who practice magic, such as those from Taoism and Buddhism, are not allowed to enter the world?"
