"Qi and blood are condensed, and domineering power soars into the sky!"
At the gate of the capital city, an extraordinary monk and a mysterious and authentic Taoist priest had just entered the city. They were staggered by the sudden invisible energy in the city and almost fell to the ground.
This true energy will only affect those who practice. Unless others reach the level of Zhang Sanfeng who enters the Tao through martial arts, they will not be able to feel the existence of this true energy!
Ignoring the strange looks from the pedestrians and businessmen around them, the two of them sat slumped on the ground and looked at the cloud-like existence in the distance. Their minds were taken away by it and they were speechless for a long time.
"He, monk, over there, that seems to be the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice, right?"
The Taoist priest looked depressed and stammered in the direction of the pillar of true energy soaring into the sky.
"It should, maybe, maybe that's where it is! It seems that Feng Zhou has noticed us! It's really scary!"
The monk also looked depressed. Looking at the Qingyun-like existence, he felt unspeakable pressure and was speechless for a long time.
The two of them looked at each other and saw deep worry in each other's eyes.
As envoys from the nameless island overseas, the two of them learned from the little old man. They were very capable and proficient in the art of magic.
The purpose is to show strength when communicating with Prince Taiping!
The reason is that King Taiping is timid.
He was shocked and frightened by the outstanding strength displayed by the royal family and Feng Zhou. No matter how strong his martial arts skills were and how many masters he had, it would not help.
His generation and the next generation of his son "Gong Jiu" should not think too much about the dragon chair for the time being!
The little old man on the island sent this monk to the capital.
Although the main target is the Taiping Palace, there are still a group of people who have various relationships with the capital.
But now, the monks and Taoists did not dare to rush over to seek abuse.
After all, as soon as they entered the city gate, they met Marquis Zhongyong and showed his power to frighten them both. So what else is there to say?
If you only compare martial arts, you can also use skills and sneak attacks to gain the upper hand.
However, there is no need for any tricks in magic and magic.
No matter what method is used, it is impossible to bridge the gap between the two sides.
"Monk, what should we do now? With that person in charge of the capital, we have no room to do anything!"
The Taoist priest looked depressed and sighed: "I don't know if the Feng family has smoke coming out of their ancestral graves, but there is such a ruthless person!"
The expression on the monk's face changed for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and said: "Since we can't go to Prince Taiping's Mansion, let's go to other vassal places. It won't be too late to come back later when we find an opening!"
"so……"
The Taoist's face was very moved, but he hesitated and said: "Isn't this in conflict with the old man's instructions?"
“I can’t control that much anymore!”
The monk looked helpless and said gloomily: "Our hard-earned cultivation cannot be wasted on this! Find other vassal kings in case there is a Jingnan battle!"
"This is true!"
The Taoist nodded repeatedly and then said: "Then follow your method!"
"That'll do!"
The monk looked deeply convinced, and finally concluded: "It seems that this time we can only return without success. It's not that we don't work hard, but the situation is unexpected!"
"Yes, yes, the situation is unexpected!"
The Taoist nodded repeatedly and said with a 'solemn' look: "Even if the old man asks us to accuse him, he can't go too far with us, otherwise we won't work in the assembly, right?"
"Brother Taoist said it well!"
The monk had a smile on his face, and while they were answering questions and answering questions, they had already turned back and left the city gate. They quickly disappeared at the end of the road without slowing down their steps, causing the passers-by and business travelers to look at them sideways.
…
At the same time, in a small hall in the palace, several royal ministers were practicing meditation with their legs crossed and their eyes closed. Suddenly, their hearts skipped a beat and they opened their eyes suddenly, and the six-pathed figure instantly emerged from the secret practice room.
"Hey, the blood is soaring and the wind is calm. Which master is this born?"
"Looking at the location, it seems to be the official office of the Ministry of Justice in the imperial city!"
"It must be Zhongyong Hou Fengzhou. I didn't expect that his martial arts skills would be so strong!"
"Hey, with our little cultivation, if we were hit by his true energy, our whole cultivation would probably be completely destroyed!"
"I don't know how they practiced it. It's really terrifying!"
"It's better to send a message to the sect and ask them to restrain the disciples. Otherwise, if you bump into this person's hand, you will lose your cultivation even if you die!"
"..."
Six white-haired old Taoists, dressed in Taoist robes with an air of immortality, were gathering together and discussing, with uncertain expressions on their faces and a rather bad mood.
Anyone who lives next to a powerful being who can take their life at any time will not feel better.
Fortunately, the palace is protected by dragon energy, so they don't have to worry about being hit by this astonishing force, otherwise they would not dare to meditate in peace even if they wanted to.
Even the orthodox monks of Qi Sect were shocked, let alone the other casual cultivators.
In the mansions of several princes, as well as in the remote places of the mansions of powerful people with a long history, the sound of spitting blood could be heard from time to time. The 'immortal masters' who were arrogant in the past were now full of listlessness.
Horrified, looking at the Qingyun Gang Qi rising into the sky above the Xingbu Department, I was horrified and couldn't laugh or cry.
Did the Feng Shilang have nothing to do after he was full? Why did he suddenly exude such strong Qi?
Could it be that he is young and energetic?
Fortunately, they are not practicing in seclusion at this time, otherwise they would have gone crazy!
They were slandering in their hearts, but they were extremely afraid of Zhongyong Hou Fengzhou. A mere volley of Gang Qi could force them to vomit blood and make them vomit blood. If they faced each other head on, the outcome would be absolutely miserable.
At that time, they finally understood why the White Lotus Sect, the Demon Sect, and the peerless swordsmen in the martial arts were defeated so miserably that they were unable to even resist. There was no way they could fight against such monsters, right?
…
Feng Zhou didn't know that his sudden release of most of his true energy would trigger such a huge reaction from all the monks in the capital.
Min Gui, who was far away in Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, also encountered trouble, and it was quite a trouble.
Feng Zhou's plan to expand the Ministry of Punishment received support from both the government and the public. As an official official of the Ministry of Punishment, he had the task of supervising the prison affairs in Yangzhou. After Min Gui and his party arrived in Yangzhou, they were warmly received by the local officials and squires.
Min Gui was a Jinshi in the same year as Li Dongyang, and was promoted to the Ministry of Punishment three years later than Feng Zhou. However, Feng Zhou had already become the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, while Min Gui was only the chief minister.
So he came to Yangzhou belatedly because he was ambitious and wanted to do something great.
I just didn't expect that once I came to Yangzhou, there would be banquets every day for half a month. Delicious delicacies such as Yangzhou thin horse, warm fragrant nephrite, indescribable enjoyment and endless ecstasy.
In just half a month, Min Gui was addicted to the wine pool and the meat forest, and his originally strong body gained weight.
He is quite restrained. After all, he was born into a wealthy family and has seen the world, and he has expectations for his future future. Although his mind is always confused, he still retains the bottom line.
It's okay to eat and drink, and it's okay to hug beauties and make fun of them, but he will never stay outside at night. No matter how late it is, he will return to the temporary government office to rest.
Of course, these half-months of drunkenness and dreams also allowed him to see the generosity of the Yangzhou salt merchants, who spent so much money that it was simply jaw-dropping.
He has seen the world, but he was shocked by the heroic methods of these big salt merchants. They simply used money as money.
At the same time, I was very strange. The spending of the salt merchants was so amazing. It only took a few days of spending to make up for the salt tax. I don’t know how they thought about it, but they wanted to go against the court and the government, even if they spent all their money.
Scattered in the tide of Qiantang River, but unwilling to let the court collect it?
Min Gui could still hold on, but the marquis and jinshi who came with him could not hold on. However, in just half a month, almost all of them fell into trouble. They were addicted to wine and sex, or they were attracted by a big salt merchant and became
Their spies and representatives in the Criminal Department.
When Min Gui took the stack of information about his colleagues sent by his bodyguard, his face was so angry that his hands were shaking, his heart was cold, and fear overwhelmed him like a tide.
Only then did he realize how powerful the salt merchants in Yangzhou were. With just a few strokes of the money, he knocked out the few rustics who had never seen the world. Fortunately, they didn't know the true purpose of their trip, otherwise there wouldn't have been a falling out in Yangzhou.
