It is already March, and in half a year, the Empress Dowager Gao, who is now listening behind the curtain, will pass away, the little emperor will soon take full power, and the old party in the court will be wiped out.

Li Yu just sneaked back to China from Liuqiu a few days ago. He brought his bodyguard from Hangzhou to Suzhou and moved into the Wuwang Villa by Taihu Lake in Suzhou. He also made an appointment with Dongpo, the current governor of Yangzhou.

Mr. came to enjoy Taihu Lake.

When Su Shi came to Hangzhou for the second time four years ago, he happened to be Li Yu's subordinate. Li Yu, who was memorizing the poems of the great writer, naturally admired him and went up the stairs to visit him.

That year, Su Shi's return to Hangzhou was not going well. He was kicked out of the court.

Su Shi, who was originally a member of the old party, saw rampant corruption after the old party came to power. He did not stop talking and bravely attacked party members in the same camp. This act, which can be called a flagrant rebellion, was of course retaliated against.

, was falsely accused and framed by the old party. If his brother had not protected him, he would have been dismissed from office and imprisoned just like the Wutai Shi case.

But since he could neither tolerate the new party nor forgive the old party, he would definitely not be able to stay in the court any longer, so Su Shi asked for a transfer and came to Hangzhou for the second time.

It just so happened that Li Yu, who had received modern education and had checked historical materials, had no regard for the so-called New Party and the Old Party, so the two hit it off in Hangzhou and became friends forever.

After feasting together and scolding the two parties together, unknowingly for a few years, under the guidance of Li Yu, Su Shi actually had some different thoughts.

Li Yu deliberately led Mr. Dongpo to "bias". Such great writers who care about the country and the people are good candidates for the prime minister of a country!

By the lake, the two continued fishing. Li Yu picked off a small crucian carp and threw it back into the lake. He joked: "Mr. Dongpo, I watched the stars last night and found that the Emperor star was getting brighter and the Wenqu star was dim, so I

Presumably, your official career will definitely be bumpy in the next few years, why don't you just resign and come to my palace, Prince Wu, to support you and take up a position at the same time?"

It is true that the road to officialdom was bumpy, because Su Shi offended everyone, both the old and the new party. In September this year, the new party came back to power. Starting from Yangzhou, Su Shi was demoted all the way, and four years later he was thrown to Danzhou.

"What kind of astrology do you know?" What Li Yu said made Su Shi stunned, and then he laughed and scolded: "Come on, tell me first, which number of the Big Dipper is this Wenqu star?"

"The second one!" Li Yu opened his mouth without thinking: "Wen Wu is the first, then he is the second."

"Pooh!"

"Sir, the officialdom is about to begin. Prime Minister Su's official career will definitely not be smooth. No one will try to catch you in the future," Li Yu advised again: "Isn't the huge foundation of my Prince Wu's palace better than staying in that decaying court?"

Su Shi knew a little about Prince Wu's overseas expansion. It wasn't that Jin Yiwei's confidentiality was not good, but that Li Yu accidentally missed a few words in his chat and accidentally revealed something. However, Su Shi was a gentleman and naturally would not talk to others.

mentioned.

Li Yu really wanted to lure Su Shi over. Su Shi had been under Li Yu's nose when he learned about Hangzhou a few years ago. Li Yu saw what he did. He provided relief for famines and built water conservancy projects. His tenure as an official could be regarded as benefiting the country.

Overseas businesses have always been short of talented people who can see the overall situation. A good official like Su Shi who cares about the country and the people is exactly what Li Yu needs right now.

"The Holy Lord is coming to court, I'd better wait and see."

The two chatted for a while, but Mr. Dongpo still had hope in the court, hoping that the decadent court situation could be changed after the officials took charge. Without enough time, Li Yu stopped trying to persuade him.

The fish soup was quickly stewed, and it was placed on the table along with several delicious seasonal vegetables and brought out.

Tanaki

But it is said that the Tubo State Master Jiumozhi, after being taught the "Flame Sword" magical skill by the master of the Nyingma sect of the Tantric Sect, swept away the black sect in Tubo and became powerful in the western border. His skills and knowledge have reached an extremely high level, but he did not

Satisfied, he resolutely went to Dali alone, trying to snatch the secret of Dali, the "Six Meridians Divine Sword Sutra", and challenge the masters of Tianlong Temple on his own in Tianlong Temple.

Monk, during the fight, the sword manual was destroyed by Master Kurong. Jiumozhi captured Duan Zhengming, the leader of the Dali Kingdom, as a hostage. Duan, the prince of Zhennan, had a chance encounter and practiced the half-powerful six-meridian sword.

In order to protect his uncle, Yu took action urgently. Although Jiumozhi's flaming sword was unable to withstand Duan Yu's Six Meridians Divine Sword, Duan Yu lacked experience in facing enemies and was captured by Jiumozhi.

Jiumozhi then kidnapped Duan Yu and went all the way north to Suzhou. He also said that in order to commemorate his old friend Murong Bo, he wanted to burn Duan Yu in front of Murong Bo's tomb, in an attempt to coerce and induce him to get the sword manual from Duan Yu.

Jiumozhi took Duan Yu, who had his inner strength sealed, out of Suzhou City, but he didn't know the way to Shenhe Village. He happened to be planning to find Murong Bo's son, Murong Fu, also known as "Nan Murong" together with Qiao Feng, the leader of the Beggar Clan.

revenge

Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi, who were favored by the King of Zhennan, recognized the young prince Duan Yu. Although they knew they were outmatched, they took action resolutely. Naturally, the young prince was not saved, and they were also captured by Jiumozhi.

.

Jiumozhi didn't have any trouble for the two of them, and promised to let them lead the way to Shenhe Village and then let them leave.

But because of their loyalty, the two of them suddenly decided to seek revenge from Murong Fu. They didn't know the specific route to Shenhe Village. They just knew that Shenhe Village was located in Yanziwu, 30 miles west of Suzhou City. Jiumozhi didn't know much about it.

He didn't care, and simply told the two of them to just lead the way for the time being. At worst, they would just find someone to ask for directions on the way.

So the four of them walked westward for more than half an hour, and suddenly came across a peach blossom forest. Jiumo's wisdom was very different, and he thought, could this be Shenhe Village?

With the mentality of finding out what's going on, the four of them entered the forest.

Suddenly, from the depths of the peach blossom forest, dozens of big men wearing brocade robes and fine armor, with scimitars hanging from their waists and carrying crossbows, came rushing towards them. They cheered and surrounded the four and a half people.

Jiumozhi didn't panic at all.

He was a master of the Tubo Kingdom and possessed peerless martial arts. He was not afraid of the powerful forces in the world or the hawks and dogs of the Song Dynasty court.

Moreover, looking at the uniform clothes and weapons of these people, they should be government hawks and dogs, because the government strictly prohibits civilians from equipping crossbow and arrow armor privately. Anyone found guilty of confiscating their homes will be punished with execution. Although the Jianghu people are brave, they are not big yet.

To the point of openly opposing the imperial court.

These court eagle dogs must have been doing something by the lake. The four of them bumped in accidentally, so they just left.

"The person coming here is the Tubo Imperial Master and the crown prince of Dali Zhennan King?"

Just as Jiumozhi was about to ask a question, a young man with inverted triangular eyes and a fierce look walked out from among the big men in brocade robes. He seemed to be the leader. He waved his hand, and dozens of bows and crossbows were strung up.

After pointing at the four people, he asked slowly.

"Hiss..." Jiumozhi looked at the strung crossbow arrow. The arrowhead was blue and obviously poisoned. He couldn't help frowning, clasping his hands together, making a slight salute, and asked: "The young monk is the Tubo State Master."

, I wonder where these troops are from? What's the point of stopping this young monk?"

"Master, you are polite!" The person who spoke was Lu Xiuyuan, the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guards privately established under Li Yu. He was mainly responsible for the Nanzhen Fusi in the Jinyi Guards, protecting the people in the palace, and supervising the other deputy commander, Zhou Xing.

Fusi, Beizhen, is considered a Jin

The internal security department of the Yiwei. Li Yu imitated the Ming Dynasty's privately built Jinyiwei without a full-time commander. Lu Xiuyuan and Zhou Xing checked and balanced each other. Both of them were the largest ones that Li Yu adopted in Liuqiu eight years ago.

He criticized orphans and was loyal to Li Yu.

In addition, the personnel in Li Yu's private Jinyi Guards are either adopted orphans or good family members from Li Yu's overseas bases, the kind that have been investigated for three generations.

Although Lu Xiuyuan looked a bit ugly, he was still very polite. He seemed to have forgotten that the other party was being aimed at by his subordinate's crossbow. He bowed and saluted, and said with a smile: "My master has long heard of the reputation of the National Master.

I admire the Imperial Master very much, and I have rarely seen him for many years. I heard that the Imperial Master came to Suzhou with the Prince of Zhennan, and I specially ordered a little man to come and invite the Imperial Master to visit the lakeside!"

Jiumozhi pointed at the crossbow arrows aimed at him:

"You call this, please?"
