Evergreen Immortal

The Azure Dragon twisted slowly, and the eyes condensed with Xuanqing Qi seemed to flash with thunder and divine power. I dared not look directly at it.

Boom

The sound of thunder seemed to be heard faintly.

Dragon Roar!

"It is said that the dragon can move clouds and rain, and control the nine-day thunder beast. The dragon roars like thunder, steady and deep."

Li Rui looked at the dragon head that was almost touching his cheek.

His mind moved.

The Azure Dragon turned into wisps of light smoke and merged into his body again.

"It's really amazing!"

Masters in the Willow Tendon Formation period can condense their qi into a shape and release their true qi to fight the enemy.

Just like his dragon shape.

Then he can release the Azure Dragon and attach it to his fist or sword, greatly increasing its power.

Fighting with a flying dragon is so impressive.

Of course.

Li Rui will not do that kind of overly high-profile show-off behavior. Fighting is fighting, there is no need to open special effects.

The next day.

He left Anningwei early, and went directly to the official road from the west gate, and walked all the way into the forest.

Not long after.

He found a huge rock that was ten feet high and big enough for four or five people to hug.

Li Rui stood opposite the rock, only one foot away, and shouted:

"Get up!"

The next moment, the blue dragon reappeared and circled his arm.

His eyes condensed.

A fist like a flying dragon smashed on the rock.

Boom!

Dust flew!

Such a big rock, almost the moment the fist touched the stone body, the spider web-like cracks covered the entire rock.

Break the stone and split the mountain!

Li Rui looked at the broken stones on the ground and nodded with satisfaction:

"Who is stronger, me or the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?"

With just this palm, the hero in the previous life might not be able to use the stereo.

The dragon form is fully formed, which greatly increases the power.

According to legend, Yinglong opened the sky ancestor god, and his power is infinite. The dragon itself is a symbol of power.

One day.

Li Rui was flipping through a book in his room.

There was a loud bang like thunder at the door.

He put down the book in his hand and walked slowly to the door.

He didn't even need to see the person, he knew it must be Tan Hu, no one else would knock on the door like this.

He pushed the door open.

"Sure enough."

"Brother Tan, what's the matter?"

Tan Hu rubbed his palms, his eyes full of excitement: "Brother Li, it's time for a big job."

"Big job?"

Li Rui raised his eyebrows.

"It's Ming Guangzong, he's going to be confiscated and exterminated!"

"."

Li Rui looked at Tan Hu with a sidelong glance, why was he excited when others were confiscated.

But when he thought of Tan Hu's temperament of fearing chaos in the world, he understood, not to mention that his previous hatred with Ming Guangzong could only be said to be suppressed, not to mention that it could not be said to be resolved.

"What happened?"

Tan Hu scratched his head: "Ningtou didn't say anything specific, just told us to pack up and get ready to go. Ming Guangzong's branch in Qinghe has been surrounded by the Wu Camp and Jia Camp!"

Looking at Tan Hu's copper bell-sized eyes flashing with little stars.

I knew it was definitely not as simple as being surrounded.

Eighty percent of the men have been sent to the frontier, and the women have been sent to the Jiaofangsi. Even worse, there may be no survivors in the house.

"Could it be that Ming Guangzong rebelled?"

Li Rui muttered in his heart.

He called Lianghe and went straight to the gate of Anningwei camp.

A moment later.

When Li Rui arrived, there were already more than 500 people standing there.

That is to say, half of Anningwei had been dispatched.

Not only that, Cao Wei also led the troops himself.

This kind of battle is the first time since the establishment of Anningwei.

Soon.

Li Rui found Ge Hong and Wei Ming.

He remembered that Tan Hu had said before that it was Ge Hong's Wuzi Camp that surrounded Ming Guangzong's Qinghe branch.

Tan Hu was only interested in fighting and knew little about other things, so it was useless to ask.

"Brother Ge, Brother Wei, what kind of unscrupulous thing did Ming Guangzong do?"

Wei Ming grinned: "Not only unscrupulous, but also rebellious!"

"!!"

Li Rui was shocked.

It really came true, Ming Guangzong really rebelled.

Ge Hong interrupted: "That's right, the secret edict of the court has been sent to General Xue. I followed Ning Touer to Ming Guangzong's Qinghe branch last night. We killed all night, and the blades were all bent. No one was left alive. It was so miserable."

Killing so many people is rare in Qinghe, and even in the entire Yunzhou.

The laws of the Yu Kingdom are strict, but the execution is lenient.

This matter can be traced back to the time of Emperor Taizu.

Emperor Taizu was a man of strong character, hated evil and hated evil, and he set more than 7,000 iron laws with a wave of his hand.

Let's take one of them.

If children pick up their chopsticks before their parents eat, they will be caned 10 times.

Too harsh.

If this law is really enforced, parents don't have to worry about picking up their chopsticks, because they don't have children anymore.

There is almost no possibility of implementation, so it was very strict at the beginning, and there were signs of slackness when Emperor Taizu was still alive.

In later generations, even the three judicial officials didn't care about the specific provisions of Dayu Law.

It was completely reduced to a tool for party struggles.

Only when you offend someone you shouldn't offend, you will know that there is such a rule in the Yu State Law.

Later emperors also discovered this problem.

Reduced again and again.

But the Yu State advocated the ancestral system and insisted that the ancestral system should not be abolished. Emperor Taizu set 7,000 rules alone, and no matter how he reduced it, it would have little effect.

So generally, people who committed crimes were punished leniently.

It was even rarer to confiscate property and exterminate a clan.

Unless it was something extremely bad like treason.

Ming Guangzong was lucky to have chosen the most difficult path.

About an incense stick of time, the last T-shaped camp also arrived.

Cao Wei then shouted loudly: "Move out!"

The army did not pass through the city, but went out of the city directly from another direction of the military camp, and went out to the official road.

Jiang Linxian did not show up the whole time.

Under normal circumstances, one of the military officer and the lieutenant general should stay behind.

Although the military officer also led troops, his duties were more to supervise the internal affairs of the garrison. In principle, the lieutenant general was responsible for going out to fight against the rebels.

This time, three of the five garrisons came.

Both of them were Cao Wei's men. Only Ning Zhongtian came from Jiang Linxian's faction, and Lu Jun stayed in the camp.

Ning Zhongtian certainly had to follow Cao Wei's orders, but he also had to take into account Jiang Linxian's supervisory duties.

After receiving Cao Wei's order, Ning Zhongtian and Feng Yu each led their men to ride fast horses at night.

Find out about Ming Guangzong's situation in advance.

Every one of the Tiger Riders had a horse, and they marched quickly in one day.

That night, they arrived at Ming Guangzong.

The horses were tied to a ravine two miles away early, guarded by four soldiers.

Ning Zhongtian personally led Li Rui, Tan Hu and other Tiger Riders to lurk in the forest outside Ming Guangzong to spy on the situation.

Ming Guangzong was the head of An Ning Prefecture.

He alone opened up a city in a valley a hundred miles outside An Ning City.

It was a big deal.

The city was a hundred acres in size, and there lived more than a thousand core elders and disciples of Ming Guangzong.

The bushes shook.

Tan Hu's big head popped out from behind the bushes and looked at Ming Guangzong standing proudly in the forest.

"Ning, what did Ming Guangzong offend?"

Ning Zhongtian raised his eyebrows.

He didn't expect that Tan Hu, who was five big and three strong, could actually find the clues of this matter.

"It is true that those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. There is progress!"

"Let Brother Li go to the Tiger Cavalry, it really works."

He laughed and praised Tan Hu.

Then his smile turned cold, looking at Ming Guangzong not far away: "Rebellion?"

"Give Ming Guangzong a hundred courage, they dare not rebel."

"The nephew of the Minister of Rites is the deputy leader of Ming Guangzong, the new supervisor of the Imperial Observatory has come, and Liu, the Minister of Rites, has entered the Three Laws."

Tan Hu scratched his head.

What are these things without a beginning or an end.

The nephew of the Minister of Rites, the new supervisor of the Imperial Observatory, the Three Laws, what are they, it's confusing.

Li Rui on the side narrowed his eyes slightly.

"No wonder."

There is only one situation that can be punished for such a serious crime, that is, party struggle.

In recent years, as the power of the national teacher has become more and more powerful, the Xuan Party has gradually tended to suppress the Lin Party.

Whatever the "prodigy" Zhang Shoufu promotes, the Xuan Party opposes.

The emperor probably saw the clues and didn't want one side to become bigger.

That's why the new supervisor was appointed.

The new supervisor became one of the leaders of the Lin Party without any surprise, and a counterattack was inevitable.

The Ministry of Rites is one of the foundations of the Xuan Party.

The Minister of Rites was targeted by the Sanfasi, and there must be the Lin Party behind the scenes to fan the flames.

What is the Sanfasi?

The official who entered there was a third-rank official, and there was no doubt that ironclad evidence had been found.

Once Minister Liu of the Ministry of Rites fell, all the forces attached to him would be liquidated.

Ning Zhongtian continued: "I heard that this is the emperor's intention. It's all the business of the upper level. We just need to do a good job."

Li Rui nodded.

Thinking too much, except for worrying about nothing, has no effect.

Looking at the wall of Ming Guangzong.

The suppression of rebellion is a secret. Qinghe has now been sealed off. All the people in Ming Guangzong's Qinghe branch have died, and no one has passed on the news.

From the peaceful state of Emperor Guangzong of Ming, we know that he is still in the dark and does not know that a disaster is coming.

Ning Zhongtian chuckled.

He waved to Li Rui and the others around him.

"Let's go, we have done our work."

Tan Hu said in a muffled voice: "Ning, why don't we go and kill him?"

He had long been unhappy with Emperor Guangzong of Ming, and this time he came with the goal of defeating Emperor Guangzong of Ming.

Ning Zhongtian rolled his eyes:

"We are here just to make up the numbers, do you really want to risk your life for Cao?"

Tan Hu said.

He followed Ning Zhongtian obediently into the depths of the forest.

In the city of Emperor Guangzong of Ming.

A huge mansion covering an area of ​​10 acres.

"Master, there is news from the capital that my uncle has been escorted to the Sanfasi and is in danger."

Liu Qian, the deputy master of Emperor Guangzong of Ming, said in a deep voice.

His uncle is Liu Shilang of the Ministry of Rites.

The face of the clan leader Lv Qiu was extremely gloomy.

"I know."

The backer behind Ming Guangzong is this Minister Liu.

Take him to the Three Law Departments.

What are the Three Law Departments?

That is the Ministry of Justice, the Censorate, and the Dali Temple. Two of the three are members of the Lin Party. It will be difficult for Minister Liu, a big figure of the Xuan Party, to get out of there!

Liu Qian tried to stabilize Lv Qiu first: "Don't worry, the national teacher and Dingyuan Hou will not sit idly by. The clan leader can rest assured that we will be safe!"

Lv Qiu's eyes flickered, and finally he took a deep breath:

"Okay."
