The Great Hero [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

Whether in the Central Plains or the South China Sea, the way to welcome the New Year is similar.

However, in addition to the process of opening new year's goods, posting Spring Festival couplets, offering sacrifices to ancestors, visiting relatives and friends, and having reunion dinners, Feixian Island also has an extremely important activity.

At that time, most of the people believed in the theory of ghosts and gods. As the saying goes, worshiping mountains by relying on mountains and worshiping seas by relying on seas. Most residents in Baiyun City engaged in livelihoods related to the sea, so they naturally respected the gods who governed water.

Therefore, at the end of each year, when the new year is officially approaching, Ye Gucheng, the lord of the city, needs to lead tens of thousands of residents in the city to the seaside to hold a grand ceremony of rewarding the gods.

And the grander the ceremony, the more cumbersome the preparations.

During this period of time, the city lord's mansion was busy up and down, and although Ye Gucheng didn't have to worry about everything, it was rare for him to be free for half a day.

Because the old housekeeper who was able to share most of the affairs inside and outside Baiyun City for him in the past really couldn't get away from him, and couldn't continue to work on those affairs while organizing the ceremony.

So all these matters fell on Ye Gucheng's shoulders.

In fact, there are not many internal affairs in Baiyun City that Ye Gucheng needs to personally review, but more external affairs.

Since the commercial route to the Central Plains was opened up, the living standards of the residents of Baiyun City have been getting higher and higher, but at the same time, the problems that need to be dealt with are also increasing day by day.

In order to deal with the tedious affairs that filled the study room in just half a month, Ye Gucheng even had to shorten his daily sword practice time.

It was at this moment that Prince Nan came to Feixian Island.

Ye Gucheng had never dealt with Nan Wang's son before, but he had some contacts with Nan Wang.

A little is definitely not a pleasant exchange.

To be honest, Nanwang is definitely the person Ye Gucheng has met the most that he hates most in his life. He even had the idea of ​​taking the opponent's head with a sword, if he hadn't taken into account the identity of the opponent and the Baiyun City behind him ...

In short, because of Nan Wang, Ye Gucheng even had a bad impression of the Nan Wang's son.

If possible, Ye Gucheng really didn't want to meet the son of the Southern Prince.

Especially when he knew that the other party was not kind.

However, at certain times, even Ye Gucheng had to choose to compromise for certain reasons.

Lingnan is the fiefdom of Nanwang, and it is the only way Feixiandao leads to the Central Plains. If he doesn't give Nanwangshizi this face, he is afraid that Nanwang will do a shameless act of cutting off Feixiandao's business route when he turns around.

...After all, Nan Wang has done this once before.

There has never been hatred without a reason in this world. The reason why Ye Gucheng dislikes Nan Wang so much is naturally because Nan Wang has offended his Ni Lin.

Nanwang is a very ambitious person. He is not satisfied with his current situation, and has been eyeing the throne all the time. He spent nearly 20 years planning to rebel.

He has enough soldiers and horses in his hands, and he is not short of money, but he only lacks a good time to do it, and a sword that is sharp enough to remove the last obstacles for him.

Ye Gucheng is the sword that Nan Wang is looking for.

Nan Wang believes that there is no more suitable candidate than Ye Gucheng in this world.

Any sharp weapon will be in danger of backlash, unless you can hold the opponent's seven inches. In this way, no matter how reluctant the opponent is, you can only obediently use it for him.

Now that there is a satisfactory candidate, the first thing Nan Wang has to do is to let Ye Gucheng, who seldom set foot in the Central Plains, take the initiative to send him to his door.

this is very simple.

He just ordered to go down and ask people to add a little bit of traffic when the caravan in Baiyun City passed through Lingnan.

Not long after that, Ye Gucheng really came to the door by himself.

However, the result of the first negotiation was obviously not satisfactory to King Nan—Ye Gucheng clearly rejected his 'invitation', even if he threatened to cut off the commercial route between Baiyun City and the Central Plains, Ye Gucheng did not let go.

Of course Ye Gucheng would not agree to his 'invitation'.

Nanwang took it for granted. Although Ye Gucheng was indeed a descendant of the former emperor, and the Ye family had indeed produced some people who wanted to restore the former dynasty and reproduce the glory of the family, but as far as Ye Gucheng himself was concerned, the restoration of the country was fundamental. It's nonsense.

In Ye Gucheng's view, the change of dynasties is the reincarnation of heaven, which cannot be resisted by manpower.

So what if he insisted on restoring the country?

Since ancient times, no dynasty has really been able to pass on immortality forever. Even if it succeeds, won't the Ye family still follow the old path after a few years?

If Ye Gucheng had no worries about the future, in order to fulfill the last wish of his ancestors, he might be willing to use his life to gain a chance to restore the country, but the problem is that there is a city behind Ye Gucheng, and there are tens of thousands of people in the city.

It is absolutely impossible for him to risk the lives of the people in a city.

Therefore, he would rather offend King Nan, and would rather return Baiyun City to its previous isolated situation than participate in the conspiracy.

Besides... the world is peaceful now, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the new emperor is not a fatuous and cruel person.

Ye Gucheng would not carelessly set off riots for his own selfish desires regardless of the suffering of the people.

Therefore, no matter how sincere the Prince Nan's attitude is, or how tempting the cake he drew looks, Ye Gucheng always said, "Impossible."

It is impossible for him to accept the son of the Southern King as his apprentice, nor is it possible for him to help the Southern King in plotting a rebellion.

Prince Nan's face was blurred by these cold words: "..."

He really wanted to turn his face.

I really want to show the kind of boldness I had when I was in Lingnan, except for my father, and threaten Ye Gucheng, asking Ye Gucheng to choose between kneeling down and begging for mercy or ruining his family.

But he dared not.

He was afraid that Ye Gucheng would stab himself to death with a sword.

The son of Nan Wang felt very wronged, and couldn't help but complain about his father in his heart. To be honest, his father wanted him to come to Feixian Island to condescend to worship Ye Gucheng as his teacher. Bring more accompanying guards?

It's good now, after being humiliated by others, I can't get back even if I want to find a place.

"Ye still has official business, so I will send it off soon."

Ye Gucheng didn't look at this stupid prince of the Southern Prince directly the whole time, he heard all the nonsense that should be heard at the moment, and refused the request that should be rejected, so he immediately started to see off the guests.

Prince Nan, who had finally suppressed his temper and planned to temper it for a while: "... huh?"

This, this is going to drive him away?

Really don't give any face? !

No, really not at all——Ye Gucheng finished speaking, and without waiting for Prince Nan to react, he simply got up and left.

He still has a lot of things to deal with.

So when Nan Wangshizi realized it, he was the only one left in the hall.

Oh no, there was an attendant standing in front of him who looked as cold and deadly as Ye Gucheng. Seeing him come back to his senses, the attendant raised his arms expressionlessly: "Please, my son, I serve you to the city lord." I will send you out of the city lord's mansion by order."

Of course, if possible, the attendant expressed that he would prefer to send the person directly to the pier.

Go away, go back to your Lingnan, don't get in the way of our Feixian Island.

He was sent all the way to the gate of the city lord's mansion, and then watched the gate rub against his nose and then closed tightly: ... I want to go home!

Then lead an army of [-] to flatten Feixian Island!

The beaten Ye Gucheng knelt down and begged for mercy!

Ran and egg.

No matter how he roared in his heart, he really didn't dare to just go back and deal with business before completing the task assigned by his father.

His father would really beat him to death.

Although it doesn't slap the face, but it hurts too qaq~

In the blink of an eye, the son of the Southern Prince spent almost a month in Baiyun City.

On this day, after being shut down again, the resentful Nan Wang Shizi was walking on the busy main street of Baiyun City, only to suddenly realize that every household on both sides of the street had pasted festive red Spring Festival couplets in front of their doors.

"What's the date today?"

The son of Nan Wang who was hit so hard that he didn't know what day it was, suddenly panicked, grabbed a passerby by the side of the road, and asked anxiously.

The pedestrian who was held by him quickly withdrew his arm and gave him a look that seemed to be a fool, "29, tomorrow is New Year's Eve."

You know, the 29th of the twelfth lunar month is an important day, regardless of whether you are in the Central Plains or Feixian Island, people will all visit their graves on this day to invite their ancestors.

Can't even remember such an important day?

The passer-by thought, this is either a fool, or an unfilial descendant.

He didn't bother dealing with such a person.

slip away.

Shizi Nan Wang, who was shivering in the cold wind, had a sore nose and almost didn't cry.

He wants to go home!Really want to go home!Even if he had to go back and be beaten if he didn't accomplish anything, he didn't want to stay in this crappy place any longer after the Chinese New Year!

Having made up his mind, Prince Nan turned his head and ran towards the inn, packed his bags at an unprecedented speed, and successfully boarded the last passenger ship departing from Feixian Island to the Central Plains before sunset.

The guards of the City Lord's Mansion who happened to be counting a batch of New Year's goods at the pier: "!!"

After looking at each other for a few times, one of the older guards asked his companion in a tone of unconcealed surprise, "I'm not dazzled, right? That's the Prince of Nan, right?"

"You are blind, I can see it too!"

"That's really a happy event. Hurry up, please help me keep counting things. I have to go back and tell the city lord the good news!"

"Okay, don't forget to buy us a drink when you get a reward later."

"sure!"

The author has something to say: light a wax for the son of the Southern Prince who hates dogs

After all, his worse days are coming soon?
