This year, the Ming Emperor, who had not been in court for many years, began to go to court.

This year, the reign name was changed to Yongkang.

In the first year of Yongkang's reign, the Ming Dynasty Di Bao was revised, and Di Bao officials began to distribute the Di Bao to township units.

In the second year of Yongkang, the Ming Emperor implemented reforms in the army, focused on testing personal bravery, gradually tightened military power, and became tougher.

In the third year of Yongkang's reign, the Ming Emperor sent envoys to other countries to search the four frontier areas, introduce sweet potatoes, potatoes and other crops, and encourage production.

In the afternoon of July, the royal study room of the imperial palace.

Looking at the commander of the Imperial Guard Nong Junyan standing in front of him, the emperor sat behind the desk and tapped a book on the table with his fingers, "Take a look at this thing."

Wei Huai quickly bowed to take it and put it into Nong Junyan's hands, who took it with both hands.

I opened it and looked at it, and the more I looked at it, the more I frowned.

The emperor saw his expression, took a sip of tea from his tea bowl, and didn't rush to ask.

Nong Junyan took a deep breath and closed the book.

The emperor read it and said, "Have you finished reading?"

"I've finished reading." Nong Junyan said respectfully.

"Give your opinion?"

Nong Junyan thought for a while and organized his words, "Your Majesty, if you do this, I'm afraid it will arouse strong opposition from various sects in the world?"

The emperor sneered, "So what? Whoever dares to take the lead will be shot to death."

After hearing this, Nong Junyan was slightly speechless. He hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, why don't we take a look at it slowly?"

The emperor listened and shook his head, "Take a look at it slowly? How can there be so much time? Besides, I can't wait for such a long time."

Nong Junyan opened his mouth and was about to speak.

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Okay, I have made up my mind. You can prepare a statement according to this booklet and send it to various Jianghu sects. In addition, Di Bao will also publicize it to help you."

After hearing this, Nong Junyan was silent for a moment, then bowed and said: "Yes, I will accept the order."

The emperor waved his hand and motioned for him to retreat.

…

In the eighth month of Yongkang, the people of the Ming Dynasty all learned a new story from Di Bao.

That is the founder of Wudang, Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Xianren are still alive.

At the end of Lijia Village, several men gathered together and were chatting.

Li Laowen said: "Hey, you said that Immortal Zhang is still alive now. How old is he?"

"I don't know, he's an immortal, and his life is not normal." Another villager from Lijia Village said.

Li Laowen continued: "I heard from the people in town who read the newspaper that Zhang Xianren had practiced martial arts to be able to live so long."

"Martial arts? What is martial arts?" the villager asked.

"Who knows? If I know where I can practice it, I will ask my eldest grandson to practice it, and he can become an immortal."

"Haha, Li Laowen, your grandson can still poop into his crotch at the age of ten, and still wants to become an immortal?"

Li Laowen blushed, "Why not? My grandson is smart."

Such discussions can be seen everywhere in the countryside and villages of the Ming Dynasty.

…

At this moment, all the sects, gangs, and associations in the Jianghu world received notices printed with the imperial court's instructions.

Shaolin Temple, Main Hall.

Fang Zheng watched everyone read the letter sent by the court, twirling a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, "Everyone, how are you doing?"

The head of the Bodhidharma Academy looked at it, frowned, and said angrily: "This is simply ridiculous. Since ancient times, the Jianghu sects and the imperial court have always kept a close eye on each other. This is simply ridiculous."

The other Shaolin monks also agreed.

Fang Zheng looked at it and pondered for a while, "I don't know what the imperial court's move means. I, Shaolin, will wait and see first."

All the monks said yes.

Huashan.

In the study, Yue Buqun sat on a chair with an expressionless face.

Ning Zhong looked at the book in his hand, "Senior brother, the imperial court requires us to have those who have mastered inner breath among all the sects in the Jianghu. Before the end of the year, we will all rush to the capital to form a "Martial Palace". The Martial Palace has three courtyards under it. The heart is fǎ

Yuàn, Waigongyuan, and a seminary. All our Jianghu sects, the master-level academicians, and other third-grade officials enjoy the imperial salary..."

"This is a Ming Dynasty decree. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished with treason and will be killed without mercy."

Ning Zhong was frightened by the last three words and frowned: "Brother, this court actually issued a notice. I guess it's not a joke."

"Moreover, Wudang and Shaolin are under special requirements. From now on, they can only preach and are not allowed to practice martial arts privately. All monks who practice martial arts must also go to the capital."

After hearing this, Yue Buqun's finger joints turned white and his eyes were a little hazy. He had paid such a heavy price and had just perfected his martial arts skills. He was about to show off his ambitions, but he was asked to go to the capital to participate in the establishment of a "martial arts palace" and do something.

An academician and a teacher? Humph.

"Senior brother? Senior brother?"

Yue Buqun came back to his senses and his expression returned to normal.

Ning Zhong looked at it and said worriedly: "Brother, what should we do in Huashan?"

Yue Buqun said coldly: "The imperial court's move, which requires us to hand over all our martial arts skills, will definitely be opposed by all the martial arts sects. Just wait and see."

Ning Zhong nodded, still looking a little worried, but he was frightened by the strong tone of the letter.

In Wudang Mountain, Qingxu received the notice from the court and was thinking about how to solve it. He himself did not agree, but the matter was serious, so he planned to contact the head brother.

Unexpectedly, a Wudang disciple outside the door came in and said: "Elder, there is a letter from the master."

Qingxu's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Brother, the leader, the information is indeed well-informed." He reached out and took the letter.

Qingxu opened it and looked at it. He frowned at first and then continued to read. After a long time, after reading it, his frown spread out and he looked thoughtful.

At the same time, the Sun Moon God Sect, Blackwood Cliff.

Dongfang Bubai was hiding in the room embroidering, "dong dong dong"

"Enter."

"Leader, I have your letter, it's for Xu." Yang Lianting walked up to him.

After hearing this, Dongfang Bubai stopped the embroidery in his hands and was a little surprised, "Brother Lian, who are you talking about?"

Yang Lianting handed over the letter, "Your old rival."

Dongfang Bubai took the letter, and after reading it, his eyes lit up, "Brother Dongfang, I haven't seen you for many years, have you ever been well? Since I was a poor man for many years and couldn't make any progress, I felt that my manpower was sometimes exhausted, so I thought of Li Daitao.

This plan is a move that everyone in the world will take..."

"Brother Dongfang, although the world is big, there are many people who are doing nothing, but there are only a few like you and me. It is difficult to meet an opponent in this world. It is sad and lonely. Life is as lonely as snow. Why not promote this martial arts together and see what happens after that?

road?"

After reading it, Dongfang Bubai laughed loudly, with a hint of madness in his eyes, "Okay, okay, great, great, great, great, great, lovely, lonely life, I will cooperate with you, see if you can get out of it"

The path from innate to later." After saying this, he laughed again.

Yang Lianting read it and frowned: "Isn't this letter from the fake Chongxu you met last time?"

After hearing this, Dongfang Bubai showed a clear face and smiled, "Brother Lian, please go down and cooperate with the court."

Yang Lianting heard this and said in surprise: "Have you changed your attention?"

Dongfang Bubai shook his head and smiled: "To me, these things are indispensable. They were not a big deal at first, but now they are different. Haha, it's interesting. It's so interesting."

After laughing, he shook his hand and the letter in his hand turned into powder.

After Yang Lianting heard this, he didn't understand why, but he breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that he could complete this last mission and get the antidote. He also thought that after he arrived in the capital, he would be an associate academician, starting from the third grade.

, fame and fortune are right in front of me, I can’t help but feel a little excited.

…

On the rivers and lakes, after receiving the notice, all the sects and sects were very angry, but they did not want to be the first to show off, and they all just waited and watched.

There is a turbulent undercurrent in the world, and sects of all sizes have their eyes on the Shaolin, Wudang and Sun Moon Sects, wanting to see how these three big guys will be dealt with.

However, what shocked all the sects was that at the end of August, the Wudang Sect gathered all the Taoist priests practicing martial arts and rushed to the capital. In addition to Master Chongxu, Master Wudang Qingxu and Lei Jun were among the large group.

That's not all, it didn't take long for each sect to receive news. In addition to Dongfang Bubai, the Sun Moon God Sect gathered the left and right disciples and ten elders, as well as many experts who practiced inner breath. Under the leadership of the general manager Yang Lianting

Rush to the capital.

With the actions of the Wudang Clan and the Sun Moon God Sect, the arena became completely lively.

Each sect secretly wondered what was the reason that made the two behemoths Wudang and Sun Moon Sect compromise.
