"Hall Master Sima, if this is the crown prince, should we obey his orders?" A general asked in a low voice.
"Didn't the chief helmsman say before he left that he wanted to find the prince? Now the prince is here..." Another general was also tempted.
These generals all vaguely knew that Xiao Chen seemed to be the Crown Prince Zhu Yuanqi. Seeing Sima Zhongping worship him now, there was no doubt.
Since the Crown Prince has personally come to surrender, you should be following orders, right?
Because if you want to talk about it, the status of this prince is still higher than that of the chief helmsman, and we are fighting to be loyal to the big man.
In other words, even if Xiao Chen did not come to recruit them, but ordered them all to commit suicide, everyone seems to have to obey...
Otherwise, as Fu Yan said, they are not only rebels of the Zhou Dynasty, but also rebels of the Han Dynasty.
"Prince, what if I... Huh? Where did you come from, little brother?" Sima Zhongping suddenly caught a glimpse of the small reed flute worn around Xiao Ye's neck, and his expression changed slightly.
However, the fire was rising just now. Xiao Ye was afraid of the heat and untied his collar, revealing the reed flute that Su Jianjia had given him. Baili had snatched it away at first, but Su Jianjia later snatched it back and gave it back to Xiao Ye. Although Xiao Ye
I can't blow it, but I wear it all the time.
"Oh, are you talking about this golden lock?" Xiao Ye also had a golden lock hanging around his neck. It was given to him by Yun Yi, and he always wore it.
"No, I mean this little flute." Sima Zhongping asked hurriedly, "Who gave it to you?"
"Oh, it's sister Jianjia, Su Jianjia." Xiao Ye said.
"Su Jianjia? Who is that?" Sima Zhongping had doubts in his eyes.
"She is the adopted daughter of the hero Qiu Changqing. Why do you Zhongping..." Xiao Chen was also quite surprised when he saw his strange expression.
"Ah! Is Fifth Senior Brother still alive?" Sima Zhongping was surprised and happy when he heard this.
"Ah? Are you also a disciple of the Xuanming Sword Sect?" Xiao Chen and Fu Yan were shocked.
There are eleven disciples in Li Xuanming's sect. Bai Yulou is the senior disciple, Qiu Changqing is the fifth senior disciple, Zhang Chuqiu is the junior disciple, and Sima Zhongping is the tenth disciple.
His real name was not Sima Zhongping, but Ma Zhongwu. When the brothers fought against each other and killed each other, he did not die, but only lost an arm and two fingers.
After being sad, he left his hometown and wandered around. When he was traveling by boat in the East China Sea, he met Xiao Xinghan.
That is to say, he was invited to join the Tianxuan Society and work together on important events.
Sima Zhongping was not very interested in restoring the Han Dynasty and expelling the Zhou thieves, but at the moment, he was like a floating duck and had nowhere to go. After getting drunk with Xiao Xinghan, he immediately agreed to join.
Children in the Jianghu often do things like this, just because they have the same temperament, they will follow each other through life and death!
He thought that after the battle at Xuanming Lake, all the senior brothers except his junior brother Zhang Chuqiu were dead.
After joining the Tianxuan Society, he has been helping Xiao Xinghan run the military in Yizhou and has never returned to the mainland, so he doesn't know that Qiu Changqing is still alive.
But this kind of exquisitely shaped reed flute was very familiar to him. Back then, his fifth senior brother Qiu Changqing had one, and he would take it out and play a piece for everyone when he got drunk.
He still remembered the tune, but he hadn't heard it again for a long time.
"This is really something I didn't expect." Xiao Chen also thought this was a coincidence, and he didn't expect that there was a disciple of Li Xuanming in Tianxuanhui. "Not only is senior Qiu Changqing alive, but his master Li Xuanming is also still alive.
.”
"Ah? You, you, you...Prince, are you kidding me!" Sima Zhongping was not happy this time, but was surprised.
Those senior brothers could not see anyone alive or dead, but when the master died, they all buried it with their own hands. They had tried pulse and breathing many times, but they were definitely dead, and there was absolutely no way they could be reborn!
"How could I be joking about this?" Xiao Chen described to him in detail what happened outside Xuanming City. He was not present at the time, but he also heard what Ling'er, Xiao Ye and others said later.
"Elder brother is actually alive, this is really..." Sima Zhongping couldn't suppress the joy and sadness in his heart, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Many of the details Xiao Chen mentioned were things that happened in the Xuanming Sect, and outsiders did not know them, so Sima Zhongping believed them without any doubt.
We are about to set off to Niutoushan in Yanyun County to meet our mentor, senior brother, and junior brother!
He and Xiao Xinghan are friends and subordinates, but he and Li Xuanming are master and apprentice, like father and son. As a friend, he has done his best, and as a subordinate, he has tried his best. However, as his disciple and son, his kindness and affection have never been repaid...
Also, their senior fellow apprentices were just like real brothers, but now that they know they are all in Yanyun, I wish I could grow a pair of wings and fly to them right away!
"But senior Li Xuanming is no longer the sect leader of your Xuanming Sword Sect. The current sect leader is Baili Qingyun." Xiao Chen lifted Baili out again.
"Baili Qingyun? Is this junior brother's apprentice?" Sima Zhongping also knew Baili Qingyun.
"Yes, Baili is also my brother." This is what Xiao Chen wanted to say.
Baili Qingyun is my younger brother. He is also the magistrate of Xuanming City and the new head of your Xuanming Sword Sect. Even though you are his uncle, you still have to listen to him, but he listens to me.
So who do you listen to?
Xiao Chen was both the prince of Han Dynasty and the boss of the sect. Regardless of his identity, Sima Zhongping was completely suppressed by Xiao Chen.
So what else can I say?
It's all your boss who has the final say.
Now the soldiers in Yuding Mountain are basically under Sima Zhongping. They are devoted to him and follow him life and death. Whether they fight or surrender, it is all a matter of his words.
So when Sima Zhongping announced in public that he would lead everyone to submit to the Zhou Dynasty, no one objected.
"I have also decided to surrender to the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, since only Master Xiao and Eunuch Gong are here, I don't feel at ease. Haha, after fighting with them for so long, we all know each other somewhat. I, Sima
Zhongping's words are hard to follow, but those others are not sure either..." Sima Zhongping still had something to say.
"How do you want to treat Brother Zhongping? Please tell me clearly." Xiao Chen asked knowingly.
"If you really want to surrender us, we must have a prince over there!" Sima Zhongping said loudly, "Otherwise, the lives of these brothers may not be saved. If they surrender and die, wouldn't they be condemned by the heroes of the world?
Are you laughing?" Sima Zhongping said.
"Oh!" Xiao Chen was shocked when he heard this and refused, "Brother Zhong Ping's request is extremely excessive. I will never obey it!"
Gong Shouli had three black lines on his forehead, and he thought to himself, "Damn it, didn't you say that you had already made an agreement with Li Shi? Why can't you obey your order now? "Damn it, are you telling the truth?"
"The lives of thousands of brothers are all on me, so I have to be cautious... If Mr. Xiao feels that my request is too much, there is nothing to say!" Sima Zhongping's face darkened.
