Save the Bachelor of Heaven

In the seventh year of Zhengde, Qiuxue gave birth to a son for Junbao.

Jun Bao was overjoyed, and after much thought, he named the child Zhang Xuzhi.

I hope that my son can learn with an open mind, be as modest as a valley, be as humble as possible, and become a man of virtue who is pure in heart, ascetic and far-reaching.

Seeing that Qiuxue married earlier than herself, everyone has children, and she married earlier, but until now, her belly has not moved, Xiaodonggua can't help but feel very depressed.

"Why can't I give birth when others can give birth." She complained to Xiang Nan.

"Having a baby depends on luck. Don't worry, maybe we will have one soon." Xiang Nan persuaded.

Little Winter Melon was still a little displeased, but he had no choice but to nod.

Xiang Nan also felt that this matter was strange. It stands to reason that he and Xiaodonggua have been married for two years, and the relationship between husband and wife has always been very harmonious. But it's a bit strange to have no children.

He speculated that one of them may have infertility, such as blocked fallopian tubes, low survival rate of tadpoles, and so on. But without the right equipment, he couldn't do a detailed inspection.

However, whether he has children or not doesn't really affect Xiang Nan very much.

Because the most important purpose of his trip is martial arts, as for the others, they are all trivial matters. It doesn't matter if you have it or not.

...

In July of the seventh year of Zhengde, Liu Liu and Liu Qi's uprising army was defeated in Jeju, Liu Liu gave the leadership, and Liu Qi led the army to fight in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. But because the south is full of water and the canals are criss-crossed, the people use boats as horses.

Therefore, it is difficult for Liu Qi's cavalry to deploy in the Jiangnan area. In the end, he was defeated steadily and retreated to Langshan in Tongzhou, where he was besieged to death by officers and soldiers.

After the failure of Liu Liu and Liu Qi's uprising, the imperial court was finally able to gather troops and went to Heluo again to quell the rebellion.

Soldiers from the Beijing Battalion, Shanxi-Shaanxi Frontier Army, Huguang soldiers, and Jiangsu-Zhejiang regiments all marched towards the Heluo area, putting great pressure on the rebels.

Before, the reason why they were able to survive was mainly due to the scattered forces of the imperial court. Rebellions broke out everywhere, and troops had to be divided to put out the fire.

But now, all the major rebellions have been wiped out, leaving only sporadic rebellions, so the court can concentrate its forces to fight against them.

Most of the soldiers of the imperial court were well-trained, experienced in many battles, well-equipped and experienced, so they quickly defeated these rebels.

In addition, being in the encirclement, there is no way to escape if you want to escape, so you can only catch him without a fight. By September, there were thirty-six rebel families in the Heluo area, and more than ten families had been wiped out.

The remaining 20 or more families either accept the recruitment, or are trapped and desperate, but the end is self-evident. Whether recruiting security or continuing to fight, the end result is almost death.

...

Seeing this, Xiang Nan was also ready.

Just when the imperial army approached the city, Xiang Nan had already hung the seal and sealed the gold, and led all the disciples, left Luoyang City, and returned to Laojun Temple.

Of course, in addition to Deng Chang and others, there is also an elite team of 300 people, all carefully selected by Xiang Nan in the past two years. They are both talented and loyal, and they are going to bring back to Laojunshan to inherit the martial arts of Taijimen.

Therefore, when the imperial army arrived, all they saw were the people in the city, as well as the imperial edicts, jade seals, and Taoist uniforms from the imperial court enshrined in the yamen.

In the treasury, silver, gold, and grain are all listed in the register, and there is no shortage of them.

Seeing this scene, Yang Yiqing, the chief assistant of the cabinet who led the army, couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "You really deserve to be a real person with the right way."

He led the army to suppress the rebellion all the way, and wherever he went, there were basically ten rooms and nine empty houses, the countryside was deserted, the bones were filled with wilderness, and the market was depressed. Only the tens of miles around Luoyang were peaceful, prosperous and prosperous. Entering the city, it is even more bustling and lively, comparable to the capital city.

If it weren't for Youdao real people, how could they manage so well.

...

Yang Yiqing then went to Laojun Mountain to pay a visit to Xiang Nan.

But when he came to the mountain, he learned from his disciples that Xiang Nan had traveled all over the world and was not on the mountain.

Only one poem was left, "One coir, one hat, one flat boat, one foot of silk and one inch hook. One song and one bottle of wine, one person fishing alone and one river autumn." Signed, Tai Chi real person.

When Yang Yiqing saw this poem, he admired Xiang Nan's conduct even more.

After the matter, he brushed off his clothes and hid his merit and fame deeply. He really deserves to be a man of virtue.

"My lord, this Taiji master has repeatedly violated the holy will, and the emperor ordered him to be deported back to Beijing." The subordinate general suggested.

Previously, the imperial court asked Xiang Nan to surrender publicly many times and lead troops to assist in countering the rebellion, but Xiang Nan refused all of them. Therefore, Emperor Zhengde was very dissatisfied, and this time he ordered Yang Yiqing to quell the rebellion, and he also ordered Xiang Nan to be arrested and deported to Beijing for a crime of violating the imperial edict.

"The general is outside, and the king's life is not acceptable." Yang Yiqing waved his hand.

Let's not say that Xiang Nan is a man of righteousness, he has made great contributions to protecting the environment and the people. Even if it is really necessary to catch him, it is not so easy.

He could see that Laojun Mountain had a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. No wonder Liu Jin led an army of 10,000 to attack, but also ended up defeated.

In addition, Xiang Nan is well-known in the Heluo area. When the people mention him, they all give their thumbs up. Even in the villagers' homes and in the ancestral halls, there are enshrined tablets of Taiji Daoist's longevity, which shows Xiang Nan's reputation in the hearts of the people.

If Xiang Nan was to be arrested, even if the imperial court sent an army of 100,000, they might not be able to capture him. Moreover, Heluo, which has just been pacified, is likely to have another disturbance.

At that time, Xiang Nan will rise up, and with his reputation, it will not be difficult to raise hundreds of thousands of troops.

And he was able to manage the huge Luoyang city in an orderly manner while surrounded by powerful enemies. It can also be seen that he is very experienced in leading troops and fighting internal affairs, and he is not like Liu Liu and Liu Qi, who have no ink and no ink. Bandits.

Therefore, once he gets into trouble, it will be a big deal, and he will definitely cause chaos in the world. Maybe it can overthrow the country and rebuild the universe.

As the chief assistant of the cabinet, Yang Yiqing naturally did not dare to take such a risk.

...

Therefore, after the rebels in the Heluo area were wiped out, Yang Yiqing returned to Beijing and returned to his command, praising Xiang Nan as a real person.

Pure hearted, honest and upright, loving the people like a son, and a man of great talent are indeed the blessings of the country and the community. It should be rewarded, not wiped out.

Other officials of the court, such as Liu Jian, Xie Qian, Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, etc., also agreed with Yang Yiqing's approach after listening to Yang Yiqing's opinion.

For Xiang Nan, who has a high reputation and has no obvious faults, he should be appeased, not irritated. After all, the imperial court suppressed the rebellion for three years, the treasury was empty, the soldiers were exhausted, the people were poor, and all industries were depressed.

It is advisable to rest and recuperate, and it is not advisable to start disputes again.

Emperor Zhengde heard that the ministers agreed, so he couldn't blame Xiang Nan anymore.

Therefore, I can only agree with the proposals of the ministers, comfort Xiang Nanduo, and grant him the title of "Fengtian Fuguo Loyalty and Purdue Real Man", with a rank of three thousand stones and two thousand hectares of land, which is comparable to the treatment of a county king. This is to show the emperor's generosity and benevolence, to comfort the environment and calm the people.
