[Comprehensive Martial Arts] The Road to Powerful Ministers

Jade Raksha's martial arts is also higher than that of the master, and even surpasses Guo Ping.Of course, it only had a slight upper hand. If Guo Ping and the Eighteen Guards were to attack, Yu Luocha would also die.At this time, he didn't have such a deep understanding of the strength of Guo Ping and the Eighteen Guards, or Yun Weijue's strength. He only felt the threat instinctively, so he ran all the way to Wanmei Villa.

Ever since Ximen Chuuxue was able to remember things, Yu Luocha hadn't appeared in front of him.It was hard for others to imagine the meaning of such painstaking and concealed behavior, but Yu Luocha insisted on it like this, and he didn't want his son to lose his ambition in the compliments and flattery of everyone.Despite such persistence, Yu Luocha was shaken when the investigation found that Yutianbaozang was weak, incomprehensible, and seemingly dead.

"What is Yun Weijue doing here?" Yu Luocha stood by the window with his hands behind his back, the window was wide open, the sky had already darkened, and his servants reported that Ximen Chuixue was still standing on the hillside, keeping sending Yun Weijue away pose.Alarm bells rang in Yu Luocha's heart, but it's only been two days!In just two days, Ximen Chuuxue, who is reclusive by nature, paid so much attention to him. This person will be a big trouble in the future!

"Return to the leader, Yun Weijue claimed to be here to discuss the way of swords with the leader. Their conversations were all in the sword room, and the subordinates only got this list of challenges revised by Yunweijue." Cheng Yi respectfully handed the list to Jade Rakshasa.

There is no need for Cheng Yi to explain, the sword room is owned by Yu Luocha, he knows very well that even he can't secretly listen to the people inside without alarming them.Yu Luocha would not leave a "back door" for such an important place as the sword room, he was afraid that someone would take advantage of this loophole and threaten Ximen Chuuxue.

Yu Luocha took the list, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "It is said that Yun Weijuan taught Guo Ping's martial arts. I still don't believe it. Now it seems that it is true." Let Yu Luocha discover that such a modification is actually more beneficial to Ximen Chuuxue, and Yun Weizhen did what Yu Luocha wanted to do but couldn't bear to do.Yu Luocha threw the list to Cheng Yi, and said in a cold voice, "Dare to push A Xue to risk her life, it's really... so courageous!"

"Master, you need your subordinates to send someone to kill them," Cheng Yi said.

"After 20 years of teaching, have you fed your brain to the dog? Kill? With Guo Ping around, who can you kill? It's a farce!" Yu Luocha said impatiently.

"This subordinate made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me!" Cheng Yi knelt on the ground with a bang, dripping with cold sweat.

"Get up, Axue is back, I'll stay in the guest room in the outer courtyard." Yu Luocha ordered.Thinking of not being able to see his son even once, and avoiding him, alas, Yu Luocha felt extremely wronged.

As soon as Ximen Chuuxue came back, he went to the sword room. He was there to observe the calligraphy. Others (including Yu Luocha) thought he was there to verify the way of swordsmanship. Who made Ximen Chuuxue such a sword idiot?

Yu Luocha only stayed in Wanmei Villa for one night, and listened to the whole process of Cheng Yi's relationship with Ximen Chuixue and Yun Weiding, and hearing Yun Weiding's self-narration, he always felt a little vaguely familiar, and soon his attention The focus turned to the conversation between Ximen Chuixue and Guo Ping. As the youngest master, Guo Ping's insights are more valuable in the eyes of the current Yu Luocha.

Yu Luocha planned to leave the next day, but it was already here, and he was still going to take a look at his son from a distance as usual.In the morning, Ximen Chuuxue was practicing sword, hidden far away behind the plum trees, surrounded by mist, covering the bright red robe, blending with the smoky sky in the northwest and the dark brown branches of the plum trees, even so far away Yu Luocha could clearly see the edge of Ximen Chuuxue's sword.

Ximen Chuuxue is still dancing sword, come, come!The familiar sense of peeping came again, if there was no reminder from Yun Weizhen, Ximen Fuxue would have thought that such harmless and gentle eyes were the secret guards protecting secretly, but now...

Ximen Chuixue's aura increased sharply, the long sword moved forward indomitably, the sharp sword aura cut through the air in front, and pointed directly at Yu Luocha.

When the incident happened suddenly, Yu Luocha was also startled, and kept retreating, retreating, retreating. The sword's edge arrived in a flash, but it was always three inches away from Yu Luocha's chest. This is the gap in realm.Although Ximen Chuuxue had caught him by surprise, Yu Luocha still had the strength to retreat calmly.

It was too late to say it, but Yu Luocha retreated in an instant, and Ximen Chuuxue could only see his red robe that was accidentally scattered out of the mist.

Ximen Chuixue stared blankly at the red robe, standing in the cold wind howling plum forest, even forgot to sheath his sword.Ximen Chuuxue thought a lot, he was very strange before, he obviously loved white the most, why would he feel familiar with such a bright red, the first time Lu Xiaofeng jumped over the wall and jumped into Wanmei Villa, the housekeeper wanted to kill him, Ximen Chuuxue didn't like Lu Xiaofeng when they first met, but it was the red cloak he raised that saved his life.Because of the bright red color, Ximen Chuuxue subconsciously kept him.Also, he finally understood why Yun Weijue had that expression when he saw the cuckoo on the hillside, it was such a familiar red color, as thick as blood, and as warm as flames.

It seemed that his father was indeed still alive, so why didn't he show up to meet him?Is the housekeeper still trustworthy?Ximen Chuuxue thought for a long time, but did not come to a conclusion.

Yu Luocha was almost stabbed by his son, but he was in a good mood. Sitting on the horse fork back to the main altar of the Western Demon Cult, Yu Luocha praised himself: "Axue's martial arts are getting better and better. It's gone." He hid it so cleverly, and his eyes were not aggressive, Ximen Chuuxue could find it, and Yu Luocha gave herself a compliment in her heart, as worthy of being his son.

This good mood disappeared three days later when I received the report from the sub-forum.

"Yun Weijue, what a Yunweijue!" Yu Luocha slapped, and slapped the letter paper on the table case, and the table case was smashed into pieces under his fury.What is written on it?Ximen Chuuxue accepts the imperial appointment!

Yu Luocha was trembling with anger. With his power in the Western Regions, if Ximen Chuuxue liked power, he would feel wronged by his son even if he was the prince or king of a country.But now, he actually accepted the appointment of the imperial court. Although it was an honorary position, although he was not recruited, he was still polluted by the imperial court.If he hadn't met Ximen Chuuxue three days ago, he would have suspected that his son had been swapped. Is this the same Ximen Chuuxue who devoted himself to serving the sword and ignoring the mundane world?

Of course, the most important question is, how did Yun Weijue convince Ximen Chuuxue?His son, he knew that it was impossible to shake his heart for a few words from others.

Yu Luocha drew inferences from one instance, if Ximen Chuuxue could agree to take up the imperial post, then things would not be so simple in Meilin that day.It wasn't that Ximen Chuuxue was advanced in martial arts and was able to spot him, but someone reminded him - there is no doubt about Yun Weixuan!

"Okay, okay, okay, what a master of an emperor, what a minister of a country, I would like to meet this Lord Yun!" Yu Luocha was so angry that he kept saying harsh words, his usual style was to just Say it or not, even the better what Mogami said, the more cruel and vicious the means.Yu Luocha was so angry, it could only be said that he was confused because he only had one son, Ximen Chuixue, after all.

What Yu Luocha is most worried about now is that if Yun Weizhen, who climbed up from a poor family all the way, can find out that Ximen Chuuxue is his son, will other deep-rooted forces in the world also know, and his son is still safe?Is the power of the imperial court already so strong?Had he just been lying to himself all these years?Thinking of the recent mighty Jian Yitang, Yu Luocha had a rare reflection on himself, whether his martial arts were advanced, and after being almost invincible in the world, he became short-sighted and sat down to watch the sky.

Yu Luocha was furious in the western demon sect, but Yun Weizhen, who was far away in the capital, didn't know it.Ever since Jian Yitang released the news of Ximen Chuuxue's acceptance of the court post, and Wanmei Villa didn't object, the world has been in turmoil.Everyone is analyzing the hidden story behind this. From Twelve Links to Wanmei Villa, two first-class forces in the world have been subdued by the court. Is this world going to change from now on?

The eyes of many people from the rivers and lakes turned to the Yunfu in the capital.The plaque of Yun Mansion is the inscription written by himself today, and it is the most honorable.Historically, to serve as a chancellor of any country, there must be a corresponding title, and there must always be an explanation for conferring a marquis or an uncle, but Yun Weijue is not an adult, and my dynasty is relatively strict in terms of title rewards and succession, so there has never been a title. conclusion.The eyes of the court ministers have also focused on Yunfu recently, because Yun Weizhen is about to hold a crown ceremony.

The emperor was busy in the small flower hall with a pile of notebooks and picture scrolls, but the owner of the Yunfu sat far away on the railing by the garden, expressing his intention of never participating.

"Yuan Yan, you should come and have a look yourself!" The emperor was in a hurry, since the Lord was leisurely admiring the flowers, he turned himself into a dog.

"Your Majesty is busy with nothing else, so you still want to drag me into the water? I am a high-ranking official, and I am busy with business, so I will not accompany you." Yun Weijue jumped off the railing and cupped his hands to run away.

"Come back, come back!" The emperor pulled him into a chair and sat down, and said, "Just don't choose a lady to marry, Jia Haoji, who awarded the title, said you must choose one."

"My lord, these are all the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, and you can just circle a word that pleases your eyes." Yun Weijue was simply convinced, if there is nothing to remember, let him go to sleep, what are you messing around here.

"I don't like any of the words selected by the Ministry of Rites!" The emperor said willfully: "Old man Shu has a grudge against me, right? Or he is jealous of you, his son who hates dogs, he still wanted to be with you back then." Competing for the title of the world's most talented man, hum!"

"Your Majesty, Master Shu Hao is an upright person, not a person who is jealous of the virtuous and capable. Shu Nan is also an outstanding person, and he deserves the name of a genius." Yun Weixuan replied solemnly.

"Yes, yes, yes, everyone is an upright gentleman, as long as I am a villain, it will be done." The emperor suddenly threw the booklet in his hand on the table, and went back to the palace in a fit of anger.

"Your Majesty!" Yun Weiping couldn't hold back, so he could only helplessly shout: "Brother."

"Hmph!" The emperor barely stopped his pace, still looking unhappy.Yun Weijue signaled the eighteen guards to guard the small flower hall, pushed the emperor back to his seat, and handed him a cup of tea with his own hands.

"Try this tea, your favorite Mengdinghuang tea." Yun Wei coaxed.

"It's just so-so." The emperor curled his lips.

"The water in the heart of the Yangtze River, and the tea in Mengding Mountain. I went out and went to the center of the Yangtze River to fetch water and cook tea for you. It turned out to be just mediocre." Yun Weizhen expressed disappointment.

"You can still enter." The emperor said: "Didn't you go to see your brother? You still have the heart to fetch water for me."

"Who is my elder brother? I am the only child of my parents. If you want to say elder brother, the first emperor treated me like a nephew. The person I always call elder brother is not you?" Yun Weixuan blinked and said.

"You still know! I am your elder brother! What is Ximen Chuuxue, a scumbag, even if he is the young master of the Western Demon Cult, so what? I am the master of the world. You are my younger brother. Why suffer from that cowardice, you think that Yu Luocha has raised you for a few years anyway, so you shouldn't be too gracious to Ximen Chuuxue!" said the emperor.

Yun Weijue sighed, as expected, people are biased. Hearing what the emperor said, even though he knew what he said was wrong, he couldn't help being happy.

"Okay, okay, I have not been wronged. It is the common wish of the late emperor, you, and me to clean up the world. It is normal to have some difficulties. How can it be smooth sailing. Ximen Chuuxue is very good, he doesn't know it, and he is just an outsider That's all." Yun Weixuan sighed.

The emperor was very happy when he heard the word "outsider". When he received the news that Yun Weiting was going to Wanmei Villa, he felt so nervous. He had only had such a friend and brother since he was a child.

"Brother, if you do this again, I'll treat you as jealous, like a harem woman." Yun Weijue added.

"You are jealous, you are like a woman, hum!" The emperor flicked his sleeves, this time he really couldn't stop him from walking away.Tieshan, the manager next to him, smiled and bowed to Yun Weizhen, grabbed the things on the table, and trotted after the emperor.

After the emperor left, Guo Ping came in, took a booklet in her hand, handed it to Yun Weizhen and said, "This is a title drawn up by the Ministry of Rites, young master, let's have a look."

"No need, just help me choose one of these silly things." Yun Weixuan waved his hand, he will not have any heirs in this life, and the title is only his generation, so why bother.

Guo Ping didn't delay her resignation either, and responded directly, not feeling at all that it was wrong for him to make up the mind on such a major matter.Guo Ping saw that Yun Weijue's big clothes were a little untied, so she closed them up for him, and took his hand to cross a wave of internal force.Just now Yun Weijue was enjoying the flowers in the corridor, but was still blown by the cold wind.

"Why don't you bring in the camellias from the porch? Every time I go out to look at them, my hands and feet are numb from the cold." Guo Ping suggested.

"What's the point of moving in here? It's only good to see it open in the cold." Yun Weizhen withdrew his hand and said, "I'm not cold. The internal strength in my body is comparable to that of a third-rate expert. I can't fly over walls. It's enough to keep warm."

"Hmm." Guo Ping was silent. Whenever this topic came up, Guo Ping was always silent.At that time, he was young and didn't understand the concept of not being able to practice martial arts. When he knew it, he felt sorry for Yun Weizhen.Admiration, gratitude, pity, all kinds of emotions come together in one body, this topic has never been liked by Guo Ping.

"Will Anzhi come back this year?" Yun Weixuan asked while holding a teacup to keep warm.

"Come back, be home before the 25th of the twelfth lunar month." When Guo Ping returned, there were often wars at the border.

"Well, are you still unwilling to set up your own family? I heard that you have taken a fancy to a piece of mountain land in the suburbs of Beijing and are planning to buy it. Are you planning to build a mansion? You are a third-rank general in the court and a grand master in the field. , and should have his own mansion. Set a date, please send me an invitation card." Yun Weixuan said.

"There is a hot spring under that piece of land. You are most afraid of the cold in winter. I want to build a hot spring village. It is scheduled to be completed before October next year. I originally planned to keep it as your birthday present next year. As a result, you know now. There will be no surprises next year." It's gone." Guo Ping said indifferently, as if she didn't hear the deep meaning in Yun Weijue's words.

"Xiaoping, you know how to make me feel guilty." Yun Weixuan's mood became more and more depressed.

"You shouldn't call me Xiaoping, I'm older than you." Guo Ping helped Yun Weixuan to put on his wooden clogs, and they were about to walk through the garden to the backyard. "I'd be glad to make you feel guilty, thanks to owe me some, and give me a big sweetie."

Yun Weizhen was silent, he never felt anxious because he didn't know martial arts, only at this time, he would resent why he couldn't practice martial arts, otherwise, he wouldn't have to drag Guo Ping down.

It was almost the end of the year, and with busy affairs, Yun Weijue was already in a gloomy mood, but now he became even more irritable.Of course, his irritability was due to his gentle smile, which was a skill he had cultivated in the palace for seven or eight years.

He was critiquing papers in the cabinet when a young eunuch ran over and told him, "Your Majesty summons Lord Yun to have an audience."

When Yun Weijue entered the hall, Minister of Rites Shu Hao and Lord Zongzheng were kneeling in the middle of the hall, and His Majesty on the throne was also very angry.

What's going on here?Yun Weijuan quickly filtered out in his mind that there was something that Zongzheng needed to come forward, and he couldn't think of it for a long time, but this did not prevent him from saluting in a smooth and smooth manner.Before Yun Weijue could bend down, the emperor had already shouted impatiently: "Flat body, flat body!"

"Your Majesty, anger hurts the liver. You are the lord of the people. What is there to be angry with?" Yun Weijue ignored the two kneeling on the ground, and directly ordered Tieshan: "Go and get the lotus cake, crabapple cake, and cloud cake. Come with mille-feuille."

"Your Majesty is tired after listening to the political affairs all day, let's have some snacks and rest." Yun Weijue said softly, the emperor is a donkey who can only be groped, Yun Weijue can only coax.

This kind of behavior of arbitrarily instructing the emperor's servants in front of the emperor, in the past, the minister of the Ministry of Rites would have to jump out to find a sense of existence, and it is dumb today.Shu Hao, the Ministry of Rites, considers himself to be upright, and what he talks about most about Yun Weizhen is "no matter how close you are to your majesty, you can't go beyond the courtesy of a monarch and a minister".

The emperor's complexion improved a little, and Yun Weijue continued: "My lord Zongzheng's favorite is the thousand-layer cake. When I first became an official, I had the audacity to go to the old man's house to eat and drink a few times."

"Get up." The emperor asked the two of them to get up first, "you are the only one who will be a good person." The emperor reproached.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. What's wrong with Your Majesty, are you so angry?" Yun Weixuan reassured.

The emperor was so angry that he didn't want to speak, but Shu Hao wanted to speak, but Mr. Zongzheng didn't dare to let this firecracker talk again, and said first: "Yuanyan, Your Majesty treats you with sincerity, and wants your coronation ceremony to be held in Fengtian Hall."

Yun Weijue glanced at the emperor in surprise, Fengtian Hall is the ancestral temple of the royal family, why did he go to join in the fun.Even the children of the royal family are not all qualified, they are all princes, okay?If he really holds the crowning ceremony in Fengtian Temple, he promises to let the princes wear sacks at night.

"Your Majesty!" Yun Weixuan called out in surprise.

"Your Majesty, I also follow the last emperor's will. The late emperor said that I will give you the crown ceremony and treat you as a brother. My brother, shouldn't the crown ceremony be held in Fengtian Palace?" the emperor said nonsense.

Just as Shu Hao was about to say something, Tieshan came in carrying the tray.Tieshan was also thoughtful and prepared four servings with the same content, except that the three ministers had fewer snacks on their plates.

"Your Majesty has been busy all morning, let's take a rest first." Yun Weijue winked at Lord Zongzheng, and Zongzheng took the Minister of Rites to Yuanyuan, oh, and their snacks.

When all the people left, Yun Weizhen said: "Brother, what are you doing, Fengtian Palace, that is the place where princes are qualified to hold the crown ceremony! Once this happened, the news that I am the illegitimate son of the late emperor will become even more raucous. .”

"You are my brother, the late emperor said it!" The emperor is not happy anymore, he still has a side in his heart that provokes you to act willfully, the world is his, and he can make troubles as he likes.

"What the late emperor meant was that if you are a brother in the world, why do you need to be relatives? It is to teach you to treat all the subjects in the world as children and love them like brothers." Yun Weijue was really tired. He seemed to live in peace and promote the reform of the dynasty smoothly. These things, Don't come to him, okay?

"I don't care, I will crown you in Fengtian Palace..."

"What about the etiquette system? With the crowning of the Fengtian Palace, all civil and military officials have to kneel under the east steps, and the conferring is also kneeling. Aren't you cutting my life?"

"Bah, bah, what's the life discount, the etiquette system, just change it. After so many years, have you changed the etiquette system less?" The emperor is qualified to say this, the ancestor of his family is the most unruly Yes, when the country was founded, many old men with white beards and great Confucians knelt down to petition, and even killed a few in front of the palace gate without stopping Taizu.The founding emperor is so domineering, if he doesn't compromise, he won't compromise.This caused latecomers to follow suit, and the civil servants could no longer handle the emperor.

"I appreciate your majesty's kindness, but I still want to be crowned in the Yunfu. If your majesty appreciates face, it's enough to be the guest of honor." It is a great honor for the emperor to be the guest of honor, but in the eyes of the emperor, he is still wronged he.

"Let the elder, Wu Qianli, be the guest of honor. He is highly respected and has many disciples, so he is worthy. I will be a praiser, just like you were back then."

"Wu Ge has been an official for a long time. He is already 80 years old. What can I trouble him for?" Yun Weixuan was helpless.

"You only invited him at the age of 80. It's a good intention. What's the trouble? This is the final bottom line. You can't refuse anymore. Forget it. I'll take care of your crown ceremony, and you don't have to worry about it." The emperor waved his hand, took a piece of crabapple crisps and gagged, indicating that the topic was over.

Yun Weijue asked several times not to waste extravagance, and not to set the specifications too high, so he retreated uneasy.

As soon as Yun Weizhen left, the emperor ordered Tieshan to say: "Xuan Guoping, come quickly!"
