Indeed, Lear had no enmity with them, and they didn't need to show it.

Of course, there are also young people who have just come out of the rivers and lakes and their hearts are higher than the sky, and they want to take away the head of the sword demon Lear, so as to become famous all over the world.

Chapter 25 Visiting the Imperial City with a Sword

The capital of Ming Dynasty, Yingtian Mansion.

At night, Jiang Asheng finished shoveling the horse manure, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and ended his busy day.

"Ah Sheng, are you really willing to end the rest of your life like this?"

A familiar voice came into my ears.

Jiang Asheng raised his head, just in time to see Li Er and Zeng Jing standing on the high wall.

Zeng Jing didn't speak, she felt very guilty when facing Jiang Asheng.

Jiang Asheng's father, Zhang Haiduan, was killed by her sword.

"Why did you come back?"

"The whole world is looking for you, how dare you come to the capital?"

Jiang Asheng's tone was full of worry.

Lear smiled indifferently, and continued to ask, "Ah Sheng, are you not taking revenge?"

Jiang Asheng smiled wryly and shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to take revenge, but that I can't take revenge. Even if I have the opportunity to enter the palace, do I really want me to kill the current emperor and cause turmoil in the world?"

Lear understood.

Zhu Yuanzhang led the rebel army to overthrow the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, competed with the heroes, ended the troubled times, and returned the people of the world to live and work in peace and contentment. He is a sage monarch.Even if he killed many meritorious ministers, his contribution to the people of the world should not be obliterated.

Jiang Asheng didn't continue this topic. He changed the subject and said with a smile, "You guys don't worry about hiding. What are you doing in the capital? Could it be that you came to see me?"

Lear didn't hide anything, and said, "I came to the capital to meet the Great Emperor Hongwu. He wanted Rama's body and caused us a lot of trouble. I have to have a good talk with him."

Jiang Asheng's expression changed suddenly, and he said in a serious tone, "Brother Li, think carefully! The palace is heavily guarded, it's easy to get in, but hard to get out. Even if the current emperor has done a lot of stupid things, you won't be able to assassinate him."

"Li did not say that he would assassinate him."

"Ah Sheng, it's you who surprised Li. You are still young, you don't need to hide your name, and you are willing to live in poverty. Anyway, you are also the son of the former chief assistant, with all the literary skills and martial arts, not to mention that you are still a disciple of Wudang. "

"Zhu Yuanzhang's mind is not so narrow-minded, and he will not embarrass you. You can marry a wife and have children, and live the life of an ordinary person."

Jiang Asheng just smiled foolishly, shook his head and said, "Brother Li, I have no intention of marrying a wife and having children. In fact, I am very satisfied with a life like giving people things and digging out horse manure every day."

"Alright, everyone has their own ambitions, so Li won't try to persuade you."

"Li is going to enter the palace for a while, Ah Jing is waiting for me in your yard, you help me take care of her."

Jiang Asheng still wanted to speak.

Li Er waved his hand and said with a smile, "Ah Sheng, Li has a sense of propriety."

As he spoke, Lear leaped lightly and flew to another courtyard wall.

Look at Lear's light figure, flying like a swallow, disappearing into the night.

Jiang Asheng murmured, "It's Qingyan sweeping the water, how could he?"

Light swallows skimming water is Wudang's secret lightness kung fu, which can achieve the effect of swallows flying over the water when practiced to a high level, and non-true disciples cannot learn it.

"Sanggong, he went to Wudang a few days ago, and was accepted as a closed disciple by Zhang Zhenren."

Seeing Jiang Asheng's doubts, Zeng Jing opened her mouth to explain.

Jiang Asheng nodded, then opened his mouth again, with shock written all over his face.

So, Lear can be regarded as a figure of his master's generation?

It was late at night, and every household in Yingtian Mansion turned off the lights.

Lanterns are hung around the palace, and patrolling guards pass by from time to time.

However, the imperial palace is too large, and there is no way for the imperial army to be placed in various places.

The imperial study room was still lit with candles.

The young eunuch stood aside, unable to open his eyes.

Zhu Yuanzhang, with gray hair and silver beard, was still leaning over the desk, reviewing the memorial.

The table is full of paperwork.

Zhu Yuanzhang was the hardest working emperor among the emperors of all dynasties. He was born in a poor farmer, let go of cattle, worked as a beggar, and was a monk. Therefore, he knew that it was difficult for the common people to survive.

He killed many ministers, but he was a good emperor.

Rubbing his temples, Zhu Yuanzhang felt dizzy and lacked energy.

Putting down his pen, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, "I'm old, I'm really old! I still want to live a few more years, the world is not stable yet!"

The young eunuch woke up immediately, without any sleepiness, and said, "Your Majesty is still young, because of His Majesty's presence, the Ming Dynasty can be stable. Your Majesty, please don't say such things, your servants will always serve His Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the young eunuch, but he didn't blame him, and scolded with a smile, "You're a rascal, but you can talk."

The young eunuch smiled charmingly, and was about to speak when the candle flickered.

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed, he suddenly became serious, and looked around vigilantly.

The young eunuch hadn't noticed it yet, and he said to himself, "Your maid closed the window, how could there be wind blowing in?"

With that said, the young eunuch walked towards the window of the imperial study.

As soon as he walked to the window, the young eunuch saw a young man.

Under the dim candlelight, the young man raised a long sword with a gentle smile on his face.

The young eunuch turned pale with shock.

"Guard...!"

Before he could scream, Lear touched his acupuncture points.

The young eunuch froze on the spot with a frightened expression on his face.

Lear walked towards the depths of the imperial study, toward Zhu Yuanzhang, with a smile on his face.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked majestic and did not panic. He looked at Lear quietly, let alone spoke.

As the founding emperor, what kind of turmoil has he not seen?

Although Lear appeared suddenly, it did not disturb Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.

"As expected of His Majesty, Li admires this demeanor of not changing his face when Mount Tai collapses in front of him."

Lear clapped his hands and walked in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"who are you?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked serious and looked at Lear in a deep voice, not angry but arrogant.

Lear was not nervous either. He sat on the table in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and said to himself, "Your Majesty, your palace is indeed heavily guarded. It took a lot of effort for Li to sneak in."

"You assassinated me?"

"No! Your Majesty misunderstood, Li came here specially to reason with you."

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression relaxed, and he said with a smile, "I'm curious about what reason you want to tell me."

Lear looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked, "I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers Rama's body?"

"Young man, are you Lear?"

"It's Li."

"Your Majesty, Rama's body did fall into Li's hands, but Li has already returned Rama's body to Shaolin. It's just that His Majesty's Jin Yiwei has caused a lot of trouble to Li, so Li has come to explain the truth to His Majesty. .”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said solemnly, "That's right, I ordered you to be arrested and Jin Yiwei to retrieve Rama's body."

Lear tilted his head and asked, "Your Majesty, Mr. Li is bold. May I ask if Your Majesty is looking for longevity?"

"There is no secret of longevity in Rama's body."

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head. He stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said with a smile, "Young man, you underestimate me."

"Longevity, who in the world can live forever?"

"Throughout the ages, have there been few emperors who pursued longevity? The emperors of Qin, Han and Wu all pursued longevity, but longevity is nothing but vain, how could I not understand?"

Lear was puzzled, "Then why is Your Majesty looking for Rama's body?"

"I was born in poverty. I fought on the battlefield in the early years, and I suffered from remaining illnesses. My body is becoming more and more unwell. I don't have a few years to live!"

"But the great Ming Dynasty is waiting to be rejuvenated, and it is not yet stable. I can't fall. I can't fall until I leave a solid foundation for my children and grandchildren."

"The imperial doctor said that there is no medicine or stone for my remaining illness."

"It is said that Rama's body contains the secret of regenerating nature. I don't expect anything else. I only hope that the secret in Rama's body can get rid of my remaining illnesses and allow me to live for a few more years."

Li Er understood, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said with a smile, "So that's it. Li has the secret in Rama's body, and I can give it to His Majesty. May Your Majesty enjoy the blessings of heaven forever and live a long life. I also wish that the Ming Dynasty will be stable forever." .”

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, "How can there be an eternal dynasty?"

"I just hope that the people of Ming Dynasty will live and work in peace and contentment, that they will have food to eat when they are hungry, and clothes to wear when they are cold, and that they will not suffer from man-made disasters or natural disasters, that's all."

Lear didn't speak, took the brush, and silently wrote down the marrow washing scriptures.

Zhu Yuanzhang is indeed a reasonable person.

Before dawn, Lear left the palace, and it was Zhu Yuanzhang's personal eunuch who sent him out of the palace.

Chapter 26

A few days later, Li Er and Zeng Jing left Yingtian Mansion openly and aboveboard.

The reason is simple. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered that the arrest of Lear be revoked.

Lear was still holding the waist badge bestowed by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Misunderstanding.

Now the misunderstanding has been resolved, Lao Zhu is a good emperor.

Without the mountain of the imperial court above her head, Zeng Jing was very happy.

Lear was happy on the surface, but actually he was in a complicated mood.

The door in my mind opened wider.

It's not far from his next crossing!

After leaving Yingtian Mansion, the two traveled to the east, Zeng Jing wanted to see the sea.

On the way, there is no lack of Lengtouqing to challenge Lear, but it only makes Lear's title of Sword Demon more resounding.

From Yingtian Mansion to the southeast, Li Er and Zeng Jing arrived at the boundary of Wuyue.

As soon as he arrived at the border of Wuyue, people blocking the way appeared in front of him.

Several monks stopped in front.

The great monk headed by him wore a bright yellow monk's robe and a red cassock, and held a ten-meter-tall magic wand in his hand.

Behind the great monk, there are several monks wearing blue monk robes.

Influenced by Lu Zhu and Master Jian Chi, Zeng Jing had an inexplicable affection for the monk, and said respectfully, "The believer Zeng Jing and her husband Lear have met several masters."

"Amitabha, the poor monk is the head of the Shaolin Precepts Academy, so he is delusional."

The great monk spoke, with a meticulous expression and a majestic voice, like King Kongming.

"It turned out to be Master Jianwang. I don't know why Master blocked our couple's way?"

Monk Jianhuang ignored Zeng Jing, looked at Li Er, and said, "Sword Demon Lear, you have secretly learned my Shaolin Sutra of Washing Marrow, and committed murder. The karma will never be erased. The poor monk wants to take back the marrow washing from your body." Through the strength of your skills, I will escort you to the Daxiong Palace, repent under the seat of the Buddha, and eliminate the sins you committed."

"You, do you have any doubts?"

Lear was startled.

He really didn't expect that the great monk had such a thick skin.

When did he secretly learn Shaolin marrow washing sutra?
