Chen Yong stared at Pei Ziyun.
If we count the details, Taizu's reign was Hongwu. In the seventh year of Hongwu, this person was selected as a scholar. He was only fifteen years old. From then on, he worked all the way to Jieyuan, Zhenren, and Zhenjun, and put an end to the rebellion of Beihou in Ji. Presiding over the great expedition against King Lu, he directly had an army of 70,000 and indirectly controlled more than 200,000.
Such a person really counts his age. It is now December of the eleventh year of Hongwu. He is only twenty years old. He has a tall and graceful figure, as if he is frail, but he is so powerful that he is a famous general in the world.
Inexplicably, Chen Yong glanced at King Lu and suddenly understood some rumors about the government and the public.
Such a person will live for at least fifty years in the future. How will future generations control the prestige and power he has accumulated
Since ancient times, beauties like famous generals are not allowed to grow old in the world, not to mention that no emperor would be worried about such a person
Pei Ziyun ignored their complicated thoughts, looked at the raindrops outside, and smiled calmly: "When I was fighting, some of them were in the camp, and it was for the overall situation."
"Now the overall situation has been formed, and as the Chinese New Year is approaching, I think this rain will turn into snow soon - fighting in winter is not good for anyone. It can be said that the war situation has slowed down before the beginning of spring."
As he said that, Pei Ziyun's face darkened as he thought about the central dragon vein.
The military has been dealt with, and as long as it is maintained, it will gradually gain the upper hand. What is important now is the central dragon vein. Taking a beating is not my style. Thinking about it this way, I have a plan.
"Cultivating yourself is the top priority now. There are three subdivisions. The first is food, the second is cotton-padded clothes, and the third is medicinal materials!" Pei Ziyun said in a deep voice: "Part of the cotton-padded clothes and food have arrived, but we still need to Hurry, especially for food, there will be a fierce battle in the coming year. Based on one catty of food per person per day, our army of 70,000 people will receive 500 shi per day."
"That's 80,000 shi in half a year."
"As for the medicinal materials, the army fought hard and suffered heavy casualties. The medicinal materials are indispensable and must be prepared in advance."
"I don't ask for it immediately, but I have to urge the relevant departments of the court and the state capital to prepare in advance."
After saying that, he stood up, frowned and walked towards the prince: "Medicinal materials can be delayed for a while, food is more important, but cotton clothes are urgently needed. These three things must be dealt with by the court. Of course, the emperor must have a favor, but Things have to be handled by others, can the prince take charge of them and supervise them?"
The Prince of Chengshun was startled and said hesitantly: "Father has a will in advance. I, the Prince of Chengshun, am only on the stage. How can I interfere in business matters?"
Pei Ziyun looked at the raindrops, which gradually turned into snow, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty will be fourteen years old in a few days. Although it is a bit early, you can still share the worries of the court and the emperor."
"Besides, this kind of matter of urging food, clothes and medicine is not considered as intervening in military matters. I understand that the court will not talk much, let alone scold."
Prince Chengshun was young and eager to give it a try. After thinking about it, he thought it was true and said: "Zhenjun has planned it carefully and it is impeccable. To do something alone is worthy of my status - I will do it." "
Pei Ziyun smiled: "As long as the prince agrees, I will have nothing to worry about."
Then he looked at Chen Yong and said, "Chen Yong, I have something to tell you."
"True Lord, please give me your orders." After hearing this, Chen Yong immediately knelt down and listened to the order.
"You should still be in charge of the daily routine. Remember the four words "iron wall and iron wall". You also understand the strategy. As long as this drags on, King Lu will be exhausted and at the end of the road."
"The prince has to go on an errand, and you have to take care of his safety. If something happens, I will behead you."
"While there are fewer things in winter, I have to go to a place to do something. If something happens then, you can discuss the arrangements with Prince Chengshun."
"It's really a big deal. Let the Taoist official contact me."
Hearing this, doubts appeared in Chen Yong's heart, but he responded: "Yes, Zhenjun, I understand."
"Okay, let's do it like this!" Pei Ziyun nodded and went out without hesitation. As soon as he left the tent, he saw several Taoist officials greeting him. Pei Ziyun asked, "Has the person been transferred?"
The Taoist official was a little heavy and helpless, so he swallowed: "Yes, Zhenjun, the 111 people available near Daolu Division have been mobilized, and they are gathering on the battlefield."
"Okay, let's set off immediately." Pei Ziyun got on his horse and ran out of the camp with his whip in the air. Hundreds of officials and five hundred cavalry followed and galloped out of the camp.
Qi Xuanmen·Wudian
Cheng Yuanzi was dressed in a Taoist robe and was sitting on a couch. His face was like jade, glowing, a little younger and full of vitality.
"call"
"suck"
The lungs swelled slightly, then sank. As he breathed, the original mana was transformed into demonic energy, as if the essence of life was changing.
With the demonization, not only the spiritual energy of the blessed land is continuously absorbed, but also the demonic energy in the air enters with the breath, and the progress of cultivation is far higher than before.
What's even more strange is that the demonic energy in the air seems to be inexhaustible. This is unprecedented. The whole life is degenerating. The soul is gradually replenished, and there is hope for promotion to the next level.
Cheng Yuanzi's eyes couldn't help but tremble, he couldn't control himself, and two tears fell down.
This was excitement, surprise, and tears of disbelief. He stretched out his hand to wipe them away, and Cheng Yuanzi murmured to himself: "The demon magic fruit has great magical powers. Back then, in order to sacrifice for the Xuanmen, I had to divide the soul and sit in all directions, damaging the whole world. I have gained the true spirit, but I have been unable to survive the thunder tribulation, and my longevity has been exhausted. I don’t expect that today, I finally got promotion again.”
Thinking about it, he laughed again, laughing and crying. He didn't seem to have the demeanor of an earthly immortal, but at this time there was only the surprise of the transformation of life. Cheng Yuanzi laughed, smiled, and shed tears again: "If the aura between heaven and earth is the same as the demonic aura now, If it permeates the air, I will definitely be able to make breakthroughs with one breath, and how can I swallow Yuanjing, not even a human being, and transform into a demon clan."
"Unfortunately, before Dao Lord, there was still spiritual energy between heaven and earth. After Dao Lord's battle, the spiritual energy was all locked up. Apart from refining the energy and accumulating some inner energy, Taoists could not even absorb a trace from the air - only the Cave Heaven Blessed Land has it. It’s like God left a glimmer of opportunity.”
"Hey, fate plays tricks on people, and we are like brothers."
Cheng Yuanzi murmured to himself, decision, regret, sadness, pain, joy, hundreds of years of all kinds of emotions stuck in one place, which only makes people want to vent. Even Cheng Yuanzi's heart is not a stone, how can he treat his master The door has no emotion at all, no touch at all.
Underworld·Qi Xuan Mountain Cave Heaven
Looking down, I saw a piece of heaven and earth hundreds of miles in radius, with a faint mountain shape, wrapped in red clouds, and shining with golden clouds. It was very brilliant. But when I looked closely, I saw a barrier gradually closing up to form a ray of light. This is the cave sky itself. The barrier, under the decision of the founder, was gradually closed as the authority was closed, and the inside and outside were immediately isolated.
"Click"
The Patriarch watched the last bit of the barrier close up and couldn't help but let out a long breath: "We carefully blocked Cheng Yuanzi's spiritual sense, and also deliberately supplied Cheng Yuanzi's spiritual energy before the final closure, so that there was no doubt about it. Now there is finally a surprise It’s done without any risk.”
At this moment, the entire cave sky suddenly dimmed and seemed to disappear from the outside.
"Hey, what's going on?"
Cheng Yuanzi is an earthly immortal, and his spiritual sense is naturally very keen. He was still melancholy in the palace, and his face suddenly changed. The spiritual energy that had been pouring in immediately stopped responding. With just one induction, he realized that his authority in the cave had completely lost its effect. Suddenly, Startled.
He closed his eyes slightly, sat upright and meditated, and then a ray of light fell down.
The underworld is deep and secluded. It seems to be eternal darkness and silence. Occasionally, some dark wind blows through, blowing up the gray ashes of souls on the ground and raising a cloud of sand.
At this time, Cheng Yuanzi turned into a red-yellow escaping light and hurriedly arrived. He saw that the spiritual light in the cave sky was dim, the barrier was shrouded, and the inside and outside were isolated.
When they arrived at the cave, they were about to go in. A flash of inspiration made the whole spirit pop out. Although Cheng Yuanzi had expected it, he was still furious. His face was pale with anger, his fingers were trembling, and his heart was filled with anger unconsciously, and he loudly said: " I am the leader of Qi Xuan Sect, and I have made great contributions to the sect."
"When I first came to the throne, Qi Xuan Sect was in danger. I did not hesitate to damage the foundation and sent distractions to fight to stabilize the situation. How dare you do this?"
"Kill the donkey and cut off my spiritual energy. What do you want to do?"
At this time, etiquette and gestures were no longer taken into consideration.
"Haha, do you still have the nerve to say that?" With a flash of inspiration, he suddenly saw the soul of Yu Kan, the first elder of our sect, appearing not far away. Hearing Cheng Yuanzi's insults, he scolded him without any fear: "If it weren't for you Having assassinated many heirs of our sect, even if there was a crisis at the beginning, it might not have been this serious."
"Moreover, the designated leader of our sect may not be inferior to you. How dare you take credit?"
"You're just an elder, who gave you the courage?" This was a confusing statement. Cheng Yuanzi's face turned cold as he listened to the scolding, and his eyes revealed murderous intent, showing deep darkness.
"Haha!" Yu Kan laughed when he heard what Cheng Yuanzi said: "You are no longer the head master. More than half of the elders in our sect, a moment ago, reported to the ancestors, and the yin and yang worked together to change your Taoist title. , having cut off your Taoist credentials, you are no longer the headmaster of Qixuanmen, not even a Taoist of Qixuanmen!"
Yu Kan usually obeyed orders respectfully, but at this time he had accumulated a lot of resentment and said with a sneer: "According to the rules of the past dynasties, you are not even a Taoist now, just a casual cultivator."
"As for the disciples in the sect, I have already announced and ordered them to evacuate along various roads. It has been several hours now, and I hope you will not be able to catch up."
When Cheng Yuanzi heard this, his face became colder and colder. A feeling of betrayal and humiliation emerged in his heart. He continued to accumulate mana and was about to strike with thunder.
Yu Kan glanced at him with contempt: "Although you have the power of the Patriarch, I can't hide such a big thing from you. You are the head teacher, and you are an earthly immortal. Whether it is the cave or the master, no one can hide it from you. ?”
"But you have been alienated and no longer an adult. During the transformation, your authority is even more blurred. I didn't take it into consideration for a while. Look at your soul, are you still more or less a Taoist?"
Cheng Yuanzi originally looked resentful and angry. When he heard Yu Kan's words, he was shocked. He looked carefully at his soul, and saw that his soul was originally dimly glowing, with feathers and starry crowns, and handsome appearance. But at this time, less than half It's still himself, but most of it has changed, taking on the shape of a beast with two horns.
"How is that possible?" Cheng Yuanzi's eyes were red and he couldn't believe it. In the blink of an eye, he suddenly felt a strong hatred and murderous intention. He opened his hand and saw a giant palm, and he slapped Yu Kan.
Yu Kan gave an even colder smile: "You have the foundation, but you turned into a demon. Even though you can be rampant for a while, you are extinct from heaven and earth. Don't you feel that heaven and earth are faintly restrained?"
"It's just that heaven and earth reject you. It's been a long time. You didn't feel it for a moment. You have become a sinner in heaven and earth. Who dares to take you in?"
