Hongdi

The members of the Caohetang disappeared, and together with Yu Qinglan, the hall master who was rescued from the Jianghu people, disappeared overnight, as if the world had evaporated without a trace.Even the prince Yuxun, who had a close relationship with them, could only look at the vast crowd and sigh helplessly.

When the spring flowers in the distant Youcheng fell and the thick green of early summer ushered in, the cold winter in Mobei finally stopped its frozen footsteps and retreated to its old nest.When the first primrose blooms in the unmelted snow, this place with only two seasons, winter and spring, also becomes warmer.

Without the intrusion of cold wind and the siege of frost and snow, the world suddenly becomes much gentler. The golden sunshine soothes all things that have been bullied and ruined by winter, and the world is full of prosperity and vitality.

The grass grows and the warblers fly, and the flowers bloom continuously. In just four or five days, spring has quietly penetrated into every corner, and what follows is the long-awaited martial arts conference.

Yu Xun did not return to Youcheng, but still stayed in the post house in Meicheng.Yes, stay, not busy.He's been stuck here for almost a month now.It's not that he doesn't want to go back to You City, or that he doesn't want to go out to do something serious, but that he's really trapped...

After the emperor got the green dragon fruit, he immediately sent someone to send him a message, asking him to use the opportunity of the martial arts conference to win over people from all walks of life to be used by the court.He readily accepted this order, but what he never imagined was that the hatred of the people of the Jianghu had reached the point where fire and water could not be tolerated—he was imprisoned by the people of the Jianghu...

Although the morality of this world should be that people do not fight with officials, but if the matter is about life and threatens life and death, then it is two things.There are not a few masters who have been poisoned in the Jianghu, and most of them are the heads of various sects. Yu Xun forcibly took away the green dragon fruit, which undoubtedly cut off their life and aroused public anger, not to mention him and Cao Hetang. The subtle relationship made people in the Jianghu hate him to the bone.As a result, he was trapped in this small post house by all kinds of people from the rivers and lakes.It's a good thing that these people still cared about the little side of the government and didn't force their way in to settle accounts with him.However, just because of this insignificant face, he welcomed a group of special guests on this sunny afternoon - Wulin Menghui.

As the name suggests, the Wulin League is a small court in the Wulin led by the leader of the Wulin League.This year's martial arts leader, surnamed Jiang and named Baishan, is the owner of the Golden Knife Villa and the current patriarch of the entire martial arts world.In addition to him, the Wulin League also has leaders from the Yitang, Sanmen, Sigang, and Eleven factions, a total of 20 people.Every 20 years, the leader will gather heroes from all walks of life, hold a martial arts conference, and re-elect the nineteen deputy positions of the leader of the martial arts and his subordinates.This event, which was originally scheduled to be held the following year, had to be brought forward.And Jiang Baishan also uttered harsh words, whoever can catch the leader of the Caohetang thief and find the antidote will be the next ruler of the Wulin League.To put it bluntly, the Wulin League will change its term in advance, and the form of the change is no longer a martial arts competition, but arresting people.

Yu Xun ordered people to welcome Jiang Baishan and his party into the main hall. After the guests and hosts were seated, he didn't want to exchange too many greetings, but just went straight to the point.He knows the purpose of these people, and he also knows that he can no longer sit and wait for death, he needs to take the initiative to attack!

Jiang Baishan is in his fifties and has a short stature, but he is so powerful that people dare not underestimate him, especially his shining eyes, which have a slight murderous look in his majesty, but the smile on his face is approachable It's very, it seems to have a little bit of a sense of closeness.

Seeing Jiang Baishan clasped his fists, he said loudly: "Jiang Baishan met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at Xia Jindao Villa."

Yu Xun got up and said with a smile, "Mr. Jiang is very polite."

"Your Highness, I have brought a few friends with me this time. This is Xiong Borong, the Lord of the Tigers, Hero Xiong." As he spoke, he dodged to give way to someone behind him.

Yu Xun took a look, ho, well, it's really strong!I saw that this person was about Zhang Xu tall, with a hulking waist, and his hands were like a small watermelon when he was clasping his fists in salute.He couldn't help thinking, if this punch hits the two of them, it can kill one and a half of them.He smiled lukewarmly, and his heart began to tremble. He really didn't like this kind of character with strong limbs and simple mind, who was as strong as a bear.

"I have admired the heroic name of Xiong Daxia for a long time. It is a great honor to meet you today."

"His Royal Highness has won the prize!"

The humming voice shook Yu Xun's head and made him dizzy for a while. His kung fu was already very weak, except for lightness kung fu, he basically didn't know anything else, let alone internal strength.Xiong Borong's roar made his brain ache, but there was nothing he could do, but He Bomeng, who was standing behind him, quietly pressed the saber on his waist, ready to meet the enemy at any time.

Jiang Baishan pointed to an old man with white beard and hair and said: "The master of the Water Sword Sect, the water sword is mixed with sand and you are Liqun, you are an old swordsman."

"Admiration for a long time." Yu Xun continued to smile, but rolled his eyes in his heart.

The old man stroked his white beard, nodded and said: "Your Highness is too modest, this old man is just an ordinary man, so he is not worthy of your long-term admiration."

Yu Xun pulled the corners of his mouth with a half-smile and didn't answer, but there was impatience in his eyes that couldn't be concealed.

Seeing his unkind expression, Jiang Baishan complained in his heart that these two people didn't know how to measure, and then he quickly pointed to the other two and said, "This is Elder Wang Qiang from the Beggar Gang, and this is Xiahou Xizhong, Qingfeng Swordsman from Qingfeng Sect."

Yu Xun nodded, "I have admired you for a long time." Apart from these two words, he was too lazy to say anything else.

The two of them bowed their hands at the same time and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." Then there was no more.

Jiang Baishan could not help frowning when he saw that the smell of gunpowder was full of gunpowder when he met him, but he recovered to his natural state in just a moment, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, originally the twenty head members of our Wulin League wanted to come and have a seat today, but , you also know that the martial arts conference is just around the corner, and we really don't have the time to do it all alone, so we're the only five here, and I hope His Highness will forgive you."

Yu Xun curled his lips in his heart, and secretly met a smiling tiger, but he was still polite on the face, "It's okay. Leader Jiang's visit today must be to discuss important matters. The king is a little tired of staying here these days, everyone If there is anything that needs my king's help, just say it."

Jiang Baishan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect this prince who looked like a gentleman to be so straight to the point, he couldn't help but start to think in his heart, could it be that he has some kind of intention?But after thinking about it, I felt something was wrong. It was clearly my group who had come prepared. What kind of tricks can this prince who is tightly trapped be able to do?

"His Royal Highness, to tell you the truth, we are indeed at the end of our rope, and we have no choice but to ask you for help."

Yu Xun took a sip of tea, but smiled and said nothing.

Jiang Baishan also smiled habitually, and said again: "I heard that His Royal Highness is very close to Caohetang, I wonder if it is true or not?"

Yu Xun cursed secretly: "If it wasn't for this, you would have spent so much manpower and material resources to trap me here? Hmph! Asking questions knowingly!"

"There used to be some friendship, but now, this king doesn't know their whereabouts."

"But I heard that Bei Yaofei, the left guardian who is good at using poison in Caohetang, was once a guest of His Highness."

Yu Xun smiled faintly, and cursed in his heart: "Guests who entered the curtain, you speak well! Don't think that you are talking about us behind our backs, I don't know! Hmph! Sooner or later, I will give you a good look!"

"After all, this king is the prince of a country. Is it unusual to have one or two followers?"

Seeing Yu Xun's lukewarm attitude, Jiang Baishan felt a little timid unconsciously, and hurriedly said, "I don't mean to offend you, but I just want His Highness to help you find someone from Caohetang."

Yu Xun drank tea slowly, and scanned the people in the room unhurriedly, until Jiang Baishan frowned helplessly, then he said: "Mr. Hey, that’s right, you can’t say that. In fact, if you don’t have enough manpower, my small post house has a lot of green forest heroes who can kung fu. No objection."

Jiang Baishan gasped, Yu Xun's words undoubtedly blocked him into a corner.In a small post house, it took him nearly a thousand people to trap this prince who is under one person and over ten thousand.Now that he asks him to help, he regards these people as his people and lets him dispatch them, which not only helps him on the surface, but also secretly releases the restraint of the Jianghu people on him, killing two birds with one stone, but puts himself in trouble .

He smiled coyly, and could only pretend to be stupid and said: "Since your Highness said so, then I will not be polite. Man, I will withdraw as soon as possible, but," the topic changed, the purpose of his visit today cannot just be caught by this The little prince's few words were dismissed, "I have an unfeeling request, and I hope His Highness can fulfill it."

"Leader Jiang, please speak."

"I would like to ask His Highness to help find the thief in Caohetang. I wonder what His Highness would like?"

"Let me tell you the truth, President Jiang, I really don't know where they are now. You said you asked me to find them, but how do you find them?"

Jiang Baishan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said to Yu Xun: "I heard that Bei Yaofei's affection for His Highness is absolutely extraordinary, so I want to borrow His Highness's life."

With a bang, He Bomeng drew his sword out of its sheath, and his fierce gaze almost killed everyone present.

Jiang Baishan returned a cold glance, looked at Yu Xun who was still smiling and bowed his head to sip tea, and explained: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I just want to let the people in Caohe Hall know that you have been poisoned, and even the imperial doctor can't do anything about it." .I think that Bei Yaofei will come here uninvited."

Yu Xun lowered his eyelids and continued to drink tea calmly, as if he was considering the feasibility of this matter, but he didn't seem to hear what Jiang Baishan said at all.

Xiong Borong, who was sitting by the side, couldn't bear it anymore, and said anxiously: "His Royal Highness, tell me something, is it okay or not?"

"Is it up to me to decide whether it's okay or not? Haven't you already released the news? Why, the people in Caohetang haven't taken the bait yet?" Yu Xun didn't feel embarrassed to say the ugly words, but he felt a little inexplicably proud in his heart. "With your scheming, it's no wonder you can lure out Bei Yaofei, who is smarter than me!"

Jiang Baishan was shocked, he was obviously trapped here, and there should be no wind to get in, how could he know?

Of course Yu Xun knew that as the prince, he had indeed been trapped here for a month, but as the shopkeeper of Hongbao Pavilion, Jiang Nuanzhu, in this month's time, tossed and fought in this undercurrent of martial arts. There was a big wave.From the preparation of the Martial Arts Conference to today's upcoming event, Jiang Nuanzhu has grown from a little-known jade merchant to the biggest sponsor of this grand event, as well as the biggest beneficiary.

People in the Jianghu were very surprised that Hongbao Pavilion was clearly selling jade, but somehow it turned into a grocery store.Basic necessities, food, housing and transportation, everything that people in the Jianghu need, from small tea and snacks, clothes, shoes and socks, to large knives, guns and sticks, tables, chairs and benches. People in the rivers and lakes have become famous, and there are more and more customers.After a month, Yu Xun was pulling the abacus beads, laughing so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.Naturally, none of the big and small things in the world escaped his ears.

As early as three days ago, he received a report from his subordinates that the Wulin League would jump over the wall in a hurry and wanted to use him as a bait to lure Cao Hetang away.At that time, he just smiled disdainfully, and didn't think deeply about it. After all, people in the Jianghu still had scruples about the identity of the prince.However, he did not expect that Jiang Baishan actually brought someone to his door, and even told him that he would borrow his own life.

"What leader Jiang wants to do, let's draw a road." Yu Xun planned to take one step at a time.After all, he is also in a hurry to find Caohetang now, to see if the person is safe, to see if the child is safe...
