Zhu Qizhen thought this way, but after returning to the palace, he sent an edict, giving Chen Zhao the name "Ziheng" without any further details.

Time passes day by day.

"Zhang Yongnian of the White Lotus Sect wants to fight outside the Shuntian Prefecture Chief Chen Zhaocheng, Lord Chen dares!"

And just one day before the New Year, the day when the yamen was dispersed and the day when the yamen closed their pens, Chen Zhao, who was about to leave the yamen, suddenly received a strange challenge letter...

"Zhang Yongnian of the White Lotus Sect dares to openly provoke the people in the government. He is very brave. What is his origin?"

At the head of the Shuanghe Martial Arts Hall, Chen Zhao Anran sat at the top of the house. A group of high-rise buildings in the martial arts hall sat in two rows, one of them was energetic and did not dare to slack off at all.

The one in front of me is a real master!

He was terrifyingly powerful and was the strong man they had seen before. Not only that, he was also a bachelor's Jinshi and a fourth-rank official in Shuntian Mansion!

This identity is even more amazing. Anyone who is a gangster in Kyoto who wants to do well depends on the face of Shuntian Mansion. Especially a strong Shuntian Mansion boss like Chen Zhao, even if he has a strong position, he will not dare to offend him easily.

"Sir, Zhang Yongnian is the leader of the four great Vajras of the White Lotus Sect!"

The boss behind the Shuanghe Martial Arts Hall, Li Dalong, the head of Dongcheng Ganerli, explained honestly.

"Four Great Kings?"

Chen Zhao smiled lightly, his eyes full of disdain, and he spoke indifferently: "What the hell is this?"

It’s no wonder Chen Zhao’s expression. After all, the White Lotus Sect is a thorn in the government’s side and must be eradicated quickly.

Even if you turn a blind eye now, you, a master of the White Lotus Sect, cannot make a public appearance rashly!

This is an IQ problem!

"What is this Zhang Yongnian's origin? Just a master of the White Lotus Sect, dares to come here."

With a gentle smile, Chen Zhao naturally didn't take the "Four Great Kings" seriously. He was just curious about why the White Lotus Sect's good player suddenly came to the door to make an appointment?

You should know that the White Lotus Sect is a sect that specializes in rebellion. It is naturally composed of various masters of magic and martial arts, but it is more of an ignorant person.

After all, the vast majority of poor people are their cornerstones.

The people are the targets of exploitation by landlords and gentry, and the targets of their suppression of foolish people.

Therefore, most of the people who really control the power of the White Lotus Sect are powerful people from all over the world.

Due to their limited pattern and knowledge, their eyelids are extremely shallow. Even if they are called "Four Great Vajras of the White Lotus Sect", they may not have any great skills.

"It is rumored that he was born in Shaolin, Songshan, and was a disciple of Shaolin layman. His Vajra Fist was very powerful and he had reached the top level in the world!"

Li Dalong coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Of course, it's far worse than the adults!"

"I said, why did this guy suddenly challenge me?"

Chen Zhao couldn't help but shook his head slightly and said with a funny look: "Has I heard some rumors? So I came here to show my power and want to make a name for myself? But he is the White Lotus Sect, and I am a member of the government, so he is not afraid of falling into the trap?"

"I don't know the relationship here!"

Li Dalong said.

Although he is also a well-known figure among the underground forces in the capital, has extraordinary intelligence collection and has a long-term intelligence cooperation relationship with the Jinyiwei, it does not mean that he knows everything.

The White Lotus Sect is spread all over the Central Plains, but most of them are in power, and even the top leaders in the religion are unable to suppress the subordinates.

But no matter how strong they are, they do not have the advantage in this area of ​​the capital.

On the one hand, the Tang Saier Uprising decades ago still remembers the Ming court. On the other hand, because it was under the feet of the emperor, all forces were intertwined. With the support of the people behind each other, Li Yanbei and Du Tongxuan occupied two major underground forces, and there was no room for the White Lotus Sect to intervene.

Chen Zhao smiled softly, but his smile was not in his eyes. He said leisurely: "Then, kill this guy too!"

"No, absolutely not!"

The martial artists here were shocked and all spoke to dissuade them.

"Why, don't you believe in my official's strength?"

Chen Zhao smiled faintly. Although he did not show any dissatisfaction, he called everyone in the Shuanghe Martial Arts Hall, who had seen blood and experienced big scenes, were so scared that his face was bloodless and his heartbeat stopped taking pictures for a moment.

Li Dalong instantly felt like he had been drained from blood, his hair was standing on his body, and he couldn't have the slightest idea of ​​resistance. His forehead was cold and sweaty, his hands and feet were weak, and his heart felt as heavy as a mountain.

"Master, sir, how dare we doubt your strength!"

Li Dalong forced a breath and smiled bitterly: "But, the White Lotus Sect's millions are not easy to provoke!"

kindness!

Chen Zhao nodded slightly, and after doing his best, he suddenly felt pressure in his heart. He felt like he had no bones, and he was slumped on the chair and gasped heavily.

Chen Zhao glanced at them in his eyes, very satisfied with his pressure just now.

To deal with such a tyrant, it is useless to talk about the power and kindness of the lecturer.

If they want to kneel down completely, they will be suppressed by God.

This is what the so-called "fear of power but not virtue" means.

"Then let's teach Zhang Yongnian, who is not clear about the White Lotus Sect!"

Chen Zhao smiled lightly, and did not say good or bad. He stood up and walked straight towards the door.

Everyone looked at each other, but in the end they still had the upper hand in curiosity, and they stood up and followed.

...

Outside the capital, Shibalipu.

Zhang Yongnian stood here quietly with his subordinates.

They are all backbones of the White Lotus Sect, each of them has great skills, and they look very powerful and arrogant.

Of course, Zhang Yongnian did not come to Chen Zhao for the sake of becoming famous.

He is not that stupid.

The world is so big that there are many masters.

Zhang Yongnian wanted to stand out and wanted to find a master too early to achieve his reputation as a master. He could find Lu Xiaofenghua and others.

If you want to die, you can fight Ximen Chuxue alone, or go to the Tang Sect in Shuzhong alone.

The reason he came to find Chen Zhao was because his cousin participated in the assassination of Chen Zhao in Qingyilou.

What's more, his capital industry in the White Lotus Sect has been destroyed by Chen Zhao recently.

Of course, the most critical reason is the result of exchanges and games between senior leaders in the church and a mysterious force.

If it weren't for all kinds of factors, Zhang Yongnian would really not be willing to go against the dignified No. 2 figure of Shuntian Mansion, which would be really not worth the loss.

Although the White Lotus Cult has strong power and is deeply rooted in the local area, and even the Ming Dynasty may not be able to find it. Therefore, Zhang Yongnian is not afraid of a mere fourth-rank official, but if it is not necessary, it is better not to directly deal with it.

After all, the White Lotus Sect is not as good as Tang Sai'er back then. The local area is bigger, and the top leaders in the sect cannot control the following smoothly, and the government also sent spies in to mix sand.

If you do not receive support from the upper class, it is a very taboo thing to target the officials of the court, which may cause anger to the court, and even the leader of the White Lotus Sect can't stand it.

Moreover, it is rumored that Chen Zhao is powerful and can kill all the masters of the Qingyi Tower in one move. This is unbelievable, and his heart is full of vigilance.

Of course, he thought the rumors were too exaggerated. Xiao Qiuyu and Liu Yuheng were rampant for too long and had reached a point where they were above the top. They underestimated the world, but in the end they failed to use 50% of their strength.

This time, he must teach the Shuntian Mansion Master a lesson. If possible, he even wants to create secret injuries in Chen Zhao's body and let this guy enjoy the wonderful taste of being tossed by pain.

In order to make it easier to act, he even specially chose a day for the New Year to be a day for the resignation of the Chinese New Year to force the Shuntian Prefecture Chief to mobilize the power of the government to arrest him.

He just had to escape that day, just like a dragon entering the sea, and Chen Zhao could never find him again.

The other members of the White Lotus Sect behind him were chatting and laughing with ease on their faces, just like they were wandering around.

"That Shuntian Prefecture Chief, this time it's a big trouble! No matter whether he comes or not, he will definitely die ugly!"

"Hehe, when Brother Zhang is targeted, how can he be better?"

"Hmph, a mere fourth-rank official dared to cut off our White Lotus Sect's financial path. He was so impatient!"

"I killed him this time and teach those corrupt officials in the capital a lesson!"

"Vacuum my hometown, no birth mother! Maitreya blesses and kills the dog official!"

“…”

I heard that my younger brother was talking behind him, Zhang Yongnian stood alone in front of him with his hands in his arms and expressionless, and he felt calm in his heart.

"Here, come, look at the guys opposite. Is that the high-ranking official named Chen here?"

With a shout, everyone from the White Lotus Sect looked over in unison, and saw nearly fifty or sixty people walking towards meteors, and there were even half of them holding swords!

"This guy Chen Zhao is such a coward. He actually brought so many people over here. Do you want to fight together?"

"If you fight in groups, you will fight in groups. Do we have the blessing of my mother? Are we still afraid of him?"

A dozen men with strong bodies came forward one after another and confronted the crowds of people on the opposite side.

Zhang Yongnian's face was quite ugly, and his big eyes flashed with his pair of copper bells. He looked at the young man in brocade clothes and robe in the opposite direction, with a very bad expression.
