During this period, Li Xiao has been following Zhang Sanfeng to learn Tai Chi Nei Jin and explore the origin of Taoism.
On this day, in front of the mountain gate of Yuxu Palace in Wudang Mountain.
Li Xiao and Lu Chong each stood at opposite corners and spread out their postures. Li Xiao waved to each other and said, "Let go."
"Okay, then let your subordinates learn the results of your cultivation over the past few days."
Lu Chong raised his arms and shook his arms. He clenched his fists tightly, and his breath sank in his Dantian. He suddenly took a step forward and hit hard with a heavy fist that was ready to go.
However, Li Xiao managed not to panic. When the fist reached his face, he slowly raised his hand. What seemed like a soft block blocked Lu Chong's fist, and suddenly the huge force of the bull surged.
A lot of it dissipated like entering a sea of mud.
Li Xiao moved forward with another side step, and at the same time, his arms snaked around the opponent's arm like a snake. Then he pushed gently with his backhand and slapped Lu Chong on the chest. With a muffled groan,
As if he was trapped in a whirlpool and lost his center of gravity, he stumbled back a few steps and fell to the ground.
"Come again!"
Lu Chong rolled up his sleeves and raised his fist to attack again in disbelief.
Lu Chong was a straightforward and straightforward person. Although Li Xiao was a person he respected, his competitive spirit was aroused even more at this time.
And Li Xiao repeated his old tricks, using the same skillful strength as before, he easily defused Lu Chong's attack, and with the help of strength, he was knocked to the ground again!
After more than ten consecutive rounds of fighting, Lu Chong was finally exhausted. He was panting like an ox and his body was bruised and swollen. He slumped down on the ground and waved his hands repeatedly: "I can't do it anymore. I am willing to take the advantage."
Li Xiao, on the other hand, was calm and composed, as if he had not exerted any strength at all. In fact, he did not exert any strength just now, but skillfully controlled his strength and used Tai Chi's inner strength to return Lu Chong's punching power to him.
Therefore, Lu Chong was defeated not so much by Li Xiao, but by his own strength.
"Yes, my little friend's comprehension is extraordinary. It's really extraordinary." Zhang Sanfeng, who was standing by and watching, stroked his beard, walked slowly over, and nodded secretly.
"Thank you so much for your careful teachings these past few days. I can't thank you enough." Li Xiao's expression moved slightly, and he quickly stepped forward and held his hands in gratitude.
"This kung fu is a self-defense technique. I hope you can stick to your true intentions in the future, punish rape and eradicate evil, and work for the welfare of the people."
“Keep it in mind!”
After staying in Wudang Mountain for a few days, they had to continue their journey. After bidding farewell to Zhang Sanfeng, the group once again followed the original route and galloped back to the capital.
Along the road, you can see many people in the city and villages cheering and cheering.
Li Xiao asked someone to go up and inquire and found out that they were all celebrating after hearing the news of the death of Cao Shaoqin, the great traitor in Dongchang. It seemed that he also had deep resentment among the people.
Cao Shaoqin has done many evil things and brought harm to the common people. He has ended up like this, and it is entirely his own fault!
Seeing this scene of people celebrating, Li Xiao on horseback suddenly changed his expression, gently pulled the reins, drove the horse to Zhou Huai'an and asked: "Second brother, do you still have the Dongchang driving sticker?"
On the body?"
In the movie, in order to find out the situation of Dongchang, Zhou Huaian once sneaked into their room at the inn at night and stole Dongchang's driving sticker, but he didn't know if he still had it with him now.
"I have it, but what do you want it for?" Zhou Huaian felt a little confused, but still took out the driver's sticker from his luggage and handed it to Li Xiao's hand.
"I have my own uses." Li Xiao chuckled and took the driver's sticker, looked at it for a moment, and then put it away.
…
After returning to the capital, Zhu Ji, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, specially invited Li Xiao and others to the mansion, held a grand banquet, and washed away the dust.
Zhu Ji was naturally happy that his biggest rival Cao Shaoqin had been eliminated. In his words, he even treated Li Xiao as brothers. He got drunk and was very happy. After this incident, Li Xiao was even more important.
He was promoted to the governor of the town and commanded the general affairs. In the end, he became the commander of Tongzhi, ranking in the third rank official position. Among the Jinyi guards, he was second only to Zhu Ji. He commanded thousands of Jinyi guards and was in the limelight!
At the same time, after Cao Shaoqin's death, Emperor Mingdaizong was surprisingly calm. Cao Shaoqin, who had been growing day by day, had long been a thorn in his side. However, because Cao Shaoqin had great power and was wary, clearing this obstacle would naturally give him a chance.
paved the way.
However, the foundation of Dongchang was still there, and the great eunuch Liu Jin took over the position of governor of Dongchang. However, despite this, the emperor was also very wary of Dongchang!
The conflict between Dongchang and Jinyiwei escalated again, reaching the point where they were incompatible with each other. Liu Jin did not hesitate to organize an elite group of dead soldiers, sneaked into Zhu's mansion one night, and secretly assassinated the commander Zhu Ji.
Li Xiao benefited from this and successfully became the commander of the Jin Yiwei!
His imperial guards have acquired full combat effectiveness through his continuous training. While collecting important intelligence and performing great achievements, they also imprisoned a large number of corrupt officials awaiting trial and intensified punishment, showing his outstanding performance.
Iron-blooded skills that even Dongchang doesn’t have! He is highly relied upon by the emperor!
…
One night not long after.
The Forbidden City is shrouded in darkness at night, and the towering ancient wall looks like a coiled dragon, quietly telling its vicissitudes in the midst of historical changes.
In the Palace of Qianqing, Emperor Ming Dynasty was preparing to undress and go to bed under the service of his concubine after handling the affairs of the court for a day.
But at this moment, there was a sudden scream outside the palace.
"Stop, you dare to break into the palace without permission and seek death!"
"Habayashi Guards, quickly capture that bold person!"
At this time, under the moonlight, on the brick square of the Forbidden City Tower, a strange man in black clothes with a pale face was jumping stiffly, his behavior was indescribably weird.
The Yulin Guards hurriedly came to the rescue. The weapons in their hands were a series of chops with knives and axes, but when they chopped at the guy, he acted like a normal person, and he was still unscrupulous.
Finally, after the weirdo straightened his arm and pierced the body of another Yulin guard with his long sharp fingers, he cut a bloody path, jumped towards the palace wall, and walked away!
"How outrageous. Someone actually dares to break into the palace and assassinate me. Who is it?!" Zong Longyan of the Ming Dynasty opened the door angrily and asked the commander of the Imperial Guard.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I just found a driving sticker for an eunuch from the East Factory on the ground."
"The man who stabbed him just now was pale... he looked like a eunuch. Could he really be from Dongchang?!"
Ming Dynasty Zong narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and his eyes flashed with a frightening light.
The next day, Emperor Ming Daizong went to the court to question Dongchang for raising troops. He not only disbanded Dongchang on the spot, but also executed Liu Jin and other ordinary Dongchang senior officials on the spot, shocking the officials!
Taking this opportunity, Li Xiao also united with other ministers to vindicate Yang Yuxuan, the Minister of War who was killed for false accusation.
In the Ming Dynasty, Zong complied with his ministers' wishes, appealed for vindication, and issued a nationwide edict, posthumously conferring Yang Yuxuan the title of Special Guanglu Doctor and Taifu, and granting him the gift of building an ancestral hall in the tomb, which will shine for generations to come.
Under the leadership of Zhou Huai'an, Li Xiao actively contacted a group of Yang Yuxuan's cronies and gained support from quite a few people. He even gained considerable prestige among the Ministry of War.
Li Xiao was good at dancing, and even made good friends with Chen Yi, the censor of the right capital, Yang Shan, the censor of the capital, Wang Hong of Hu Ke, etc., and his power in his hands also increased.
After the disintegration of Dongchang, Jinyiwei, who was the most relied upon by the emperor, became more and more powerful. Not only did he integrate all the Kuai guan originally established by Dongchang, but his strength was greatly increased, and he also gained the trust of the Ming Dynasty Zong.
With a large number of imperial guards in hand, he won the trust of the Ming Dynasty clan and won the full support of many ministers. For a while, Li Xiao was unparalleled in the court and ranked above ten thousand people!
