Chapter 4 The Prince's Revenge
In the British palace, Yang Kang listened to Xixia Prince Li Chengzhen talk about his experiences in the past few years. The change of identity from a royal nobleman to a fugitive was by no means easy to bear. However, the Xixia prince did not excitedly condemn his cousin's usurpation of the throne.
He did not cry out about his tragic experience, but spoke calmly.
This is a mature man, Yang Kang made a judgment.
This world is about success and failure. Morality and law are only binding on ordinary people. As long as they can control the power, they can do whatever they want. This is the way of thinking of the upper class.
While Yang Kang was observing Li Chengzhen, the Prince of Xixia was also observing His Royal Highness. He was not impulsive to Yang Kang reporting his real name, nor was he eager to know the whereabouts of his sister. He felt that this was an opportunity.
An opportunity to get in touch with the royal family of the Jin Kingdom.
At this time, the emperor of Xixia, Li Zunxu, was Li Chengzhen's cousin. Since the Jin Kingdom destroyed the Liao Kingdom, Xixia had been vassal to the Jin Kingdom. However, after Li Zunxu attempted to usurp the throne, the relationship between Xixia and the Jin Kingdom became more subtle. This
The Xixia emperor's handling of foreign relations was capricious and a complete mess.
With the rise of Temujin in Mobei, this relationship will become more uncertain, so Li Chengzhen is not worried that His Royal Highness will send him back to Xixia. Doing anything requires taking risks. Prince Li Chengzhen of Xixia hopes to use this
By chance, he came into contact with Emperor Wanyan Honglie of the Kingdom of Jin and asked for help to take back the throne that belonged to him.
During the years of his escape, Li Chengzhen also thought about seeking help from the Kingdom of Jin. However, the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, Wanyan Jing, only wanted to enjoy himself and did not care who would be the emperor of the Xixia Kingdom. Moreover, the Kingdom of Jin had too much time to take care of itself and would not send troops to help someone.
As a prince with no foundation, Li Chengzhen had no choice but to hide and wait for the opportunity.
Now that the new emperor of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Honglie, has ascended the throne, Li Chengzhen thought he could give it another try. He happened to meet His Royal Highness here. He thought this was an opportunity given by God. In order to show his honesty, he told Yang Kang everything.
Yang Kang indeed had no intention of sending Li Chengzhen back to Xixia. However, he had no interest in the Xixia prince's plan to seize power. In his impression, Xixia was the first to attack after Temujin's rise, because Xixia blocked Temujin's attack.
The road to the Central Plains.
His Royal Highness does not believe that Xixia's current poor national strength, chaotic court, and loose military equipment can withstand the trampling of the Mongolian cavalry, so it does not matter whether the Xixia prince can regain the throne. Anyway, Xixia will be destroyed in a few years.
Yang Kang is interested in these two masters of the Xixia First Grade Hall. The middle-aged man is Li Chengzong and the beautiful woman is Murong Yan.
Xixia Yipintang is an official organization of Xixia. Yipintang recruits and recruits a group of martial arts masters to be used by the royal family. These masters can be used to protect the safety of royal family members, assassinate important figures of the other party, and also control the world of Xixia.
In terms of power, the four most famous villains in Yipintang are.
However, with the decline of Xixia's national power, the level of masters recruited by Yipintang was uneven. Gradually they faded out of the sight of the martial arts in the Central Plains and became the imperial guard of the Xixia royal family. From the fact that Ouyang Feng was able to break into Yipintang alone and ask for the formula of Beisu Qingfeng, we can know that Yipintang
There are no absolute masters here.
"Murong family? Time flies?" Yang Kang asked.
"I didn't expect that His Royal Highness the King of England knew a lot about the martial arts history. It was the secret knowledge of our ancestors, but it has been lost long ago. I really feel sorry for our ancestors." Murong Yan said with shame.
The Murong family began to decline in the generation of Murong Fu. Because the Murong family offended many martial arts people in the Central Plains, they abandoned Yanziwu in Suzhou and took refuge in Xixia, becoming a member of the Xixia Yipintang.
Another royal descendant!
Yang Kang sighed in his heart, how many dynasties have risen and fallen, how many descendants of the royal family have lived among the people, how many separations, chaos and reconciliations. How many grievances and grievances have finally become a page in history for future generations to study and imagine.
Many years from now, someone will surely come to study me, right?
King Wanyankang of England thought so, and then he got rid of this emotion and began to ask about Li Mochou. According to what Li Chengzhen said, they found the palace maid and also inquired with the neighbors. The little girl was indeed
It was called Mochou. Children of other families would not usually be given such a name, so the neighbors remembered her very well.
In this era, the penetration rate of writing was very low. Most ordinary people were illiterate, and naming their children was very casual. For example, Hong Qigong was called Hong Qi. If Bao Xiruo's father was not a private school teacher, she might be called
Names like Bao Lianhua or Bao Huahua, so the name Li Mochou undoubtedly represents a certain class of origin.
In this way, Yang Kang was seventy percent sure that the Li Mochou in the ancient tomb was the former little princess of Xixia.
"His Royal Highness, please inform me of the whereabouts of my sister-in-law. Chengzhen would like to express my gratitude." Li Chengzhen bowed again.
"Can you beat Ouyang Feng?" Yang Kang asked abruptly.
"Ouyang Feng is one of the best masters in the world, so of course we are no match." Li Chengzong, a master of Yipintang, said dissatisfied, "Are you making fun of me, His Highness?"
"I don't mean to make fun of you, but the person who adopted your little princess once defeated Ouyang Feng. Do you still dare to go?" Yang Kang said calmly.
Thinking about the maid in the ancient tomb, Yang Kang also had a headache. He had always wanted to repair the relationship with the ancient tomb. He also asked Zhao Zhijing to send some daily necessities to the door of the ancient tomb, but was turned back.
"How is that possible?" Murong Yan exclaimed, "Ouyang Feng is a great master of martial arts..."
Li Chengzhen was not surprised when he heard Yang Kang's words, but looked calm.
"If it is true as His Highness said, to be adopted by such a noble person, it is a blessing for my sister-in-law. It is too late for Chengzhen to be happy." Prince Xixia said calmly, "Chengzhen is still wandering at the moment and has no fixed place to live.
It’s hard to take good care of my roommate, I just want to be able to take a look at her and know that she is okay.”
Yang Kang can still fulfill this request. Anyway, his current relationship with the ancient tomb is in a frozen period. Depending on this matter, there may be room for relaxation, but of course it may get worse.
Yang Kang took Li Chengzhen and his party up Zhongnan Mountain and arrived at the entrance of the ancient tomb. After waiting for an hour, Grandma Sun opened the door and came out. Yang Kang and Grandma Sun explained the whole story. These people didn't want to take Li Mochou away, they just wanted to take away Li Mochou.
Just take a look at the child.
Grandma Sun didn't believe that Li Mochou could be a Party member at first. After all, it was too bizarre. However, this was easily confirmed. She only needed to use the soul-transferring ** to hypnotize Li Mochou and ask her about her childhood memories. Yang Kang
I had thought of this solution before coming here.
Half an hour later, Granny Sun and Li Mochou appeared at the door of the ancient tomb. The little girl looked at the people outside at a loss. She recognized Yang Kang, but she didn't have a good impression.
Li Chengzhen did not step forward excitedly to recognize his relatives, but took a deep look at his sister, then turned and left. He knew that he could not take good care of his sister at this moment. Instead of the two of them hugging each other and crying like children, it was better not to disturb his sister's peace. Life.
"The appearance of my sister-in-law is very similar to that of my mother. This is unmistakable." Li Chengzhen said on the way down the mountain.
