Chapter 43 Dragon Guard Camp(1/2)
Gao Ruoyu smiled slightly and raised his hand to signal everyone to take their seats. "When Xingdao Alliance was established, the alliance rules were established, and the alliance members were not allowed to steal and rob the people of Jingnan. In order to protect the people of Jingnan, we should abide by our Jingnan Law. It turns out that there are also some people among the gang members who are tampering with the people of the people of Jingnan. Hehe, at that time, they are thieves, and you can help the rules and persuade them..."
He paused for a moment and changed his mind: "This is a soldier, so the law is used to punish him. After the camp is established, if there is a first offender, he will be punished with a stick, and the other offenders will be beheaded and displayed to the public to respect him."
Lin Yi and others felt a stern heart and responded in unison: "We obey our order."
"The four gentlemen will be temporarily in charge of the Longwei Camp as entrusted, and then make a resolution when there is a suitable candidate in the future. The original three states have more than 300 people, and the Fengming Guard has more than 400 people. Mr. Lin and Mr. Min can temporarily lead the chief and deputy commander of the left guard of the Longwei Camp, and Mr. Gu and Mr. Xu are the chief and deputy commander of the right guard."
"The rest of the ranks and ranks of the chief lieutenant can be selected from the original guardians, such as Shang You and Zhang Liang... As for Mr. Mo, this princess, has its own arrangements."
"Commander Lin, Mr. Geng stayed, and the other three commanders went to the conference hall first, and put the soldiers in the hall of announcements planned by this princess. I will also go later."
Min, Gu and the other three bowed and left after hearing this. Gao Ruoyu looked at Lin Yi and said, "Has Commander Lin ever found some news from Shang You?"
Lin Yi thought for a while and said, "After hearing the princess' order, he told Shang Guardian what Mr. Mo said about what Mr. Mo saw and heard. He was very surprised and did not answer for a while. He said, 'Mr. Jiang Qiubai is the uncle of Master Luo, and he should also be the uncle of Brother Shang, right?" Shang Guardian nodded and said yes."
He looked at Gao Ruoyu and paused, "As the princess said, he also said that Master Luo's master also rushed to the prefecture. Shang Gufa thought that he had never expected it, so he blurted out: Master Chu has also gone to the prefecture? His subordinate nodded vaguely, but he did not dare to ask him the name of Master Chu in detail, for fear that he would doubt it."
The position of the chief of Taibai Academy was originally held by Jiang Wuya, and Chu Nanfeng was only held by Chu Nanfeng five years ago. After Shang You left the mountain, he did not know that he was still a master of Chu Nanfeng.
After hearing this, Gao Ruoyu looked at Lin Yi's face and smiled and said, "Mr. Lin only knows my wish, it's very good, very good."
Lin Yi smiled bitterly. After hearing Mo Bushan's statement, he was also frightened. He did not expect Luo Xiaoyao's background to be so terrifying. He knew that Gao Ruoyu had no malicious intentions towards Luo Xiaoyao, and he did not dare to have malicious intentions. In addition, he was also curious about Luo Xiaoyao and Shang You's master's place, so he followed Gao Ruoyu's arrangement to deceive Shang You.
"Mr. Geng, are there people from the Chu family with the elixir cultivation in the world?" Gao Ruoyu looked at Geng Gongfeng, who was thinking about his eyes closed.
"There are not many good people with the surname Chu in the world. In Geng's memory... only one person is profound. If Geng infers it, the Master Chu in Shangyou's mouth should be this person." Geng Gongfeng opened his eyes.
"Who?" Gao Ruoyu said happily.
"More than ten years ago, a man with the surname Chu was chasing Yao, the concubine of King Ma Xifan of Chu. The Yao family was originally from the Wushan Sword Sect, so he fled from Chu to Wushan. However, the Chu family found Wushan. In one day, he fought against the three masters of the Wushan Sword Sect, killing two elders of the Divine Thought Realm, and injuring the head of the Wushan Sword Sect, and was famous for the time being."
Lin Yi was shocked and said, "One person fights three masters alone? Then... what kind of cultivation was he at that time? How old was he?"
"I heard that he was only able to achieve great spiritual enlightenment at that time, and he was old... It seemed like he was only twenty-six or seven years old." In Lin Yi's stunned, Geng Gongfeng said again: "Many people asked about his origins and finally found out that the person with the Chu surname came from Taibai Academy in Shaanxi."
"I heard that he has a graceful sword technique and gentle appearance, so a good person gave him the title of "Wenjian". However, since that battle, there have been no rumors about him in the world. I think he is a person with bad fame."
Gao Ruoyu nodded slightly and pondered for a moment: "What Mr. Geng guessed should be correct. Such a genius talent should not be difficult to go from the realm of divine thought to the realm of bouncing the elixir for more than ten years. It seems that it is necessary..."
After pausing, thinking for a moment, he said to Lin Yi: "Where is Shang You living here?"
"Live here in the military residence of Suwei Camp."
"Young Master Luo will definitely come to look for the sword... Commander Lin, you will tell Shang You later to move back to the house where you were originally living, including Commander Lin... If Mr. Luo comes here, please remember to treat him with courtesy. Then come and tell me the princess."
Lin Yi did not understand Gao Ruoyu's intention, and he was suspicious, but he did not dare to ask, so he had to respond: "I understand."
"Okay." Gao Ruoyu thought that the matter was arranged, and she was relaxed, and said with a smile: "Then let me go to the conference hall with me."
After saying that, he stood up and walked forward. Han Yue, Geng and Lin all followed. The guard standing at the entrance of the conference hall saw Gao Ruoyu coming, and he knelt down on one knee, "See the princess."
When the soldiers in the hall heard the sound, they all stood up from the ground, but they saw Gao Ruoyu walking in the hall. Except for Min, Gu and Xu bowed and bowed, the rest of the soldiers knelt on one knee and shouted in unison: "See Princess."
These people have changed from the Taoist alliance to the Suwei camp soldiers. In the past twenty days, they have learned the etiquette of the officialdom. Gao Ruoyu smiled slightly, walked to the embroidered dormitory in the middle table and sat down, saying, "Sir, don't be too polite, get up."
When everyone heard this, they stood up one after another, arranged one by one, dressed in the guards' clothes, and looked majestic.
Gao Ruoyu's bright eyes were fixed and he said slowly: "I believe that all the soldiers have heard the military orders of several commanders. From today on, all the soldiers will be my Longwei Camp soldiers in Jingnan. It is your duty to protect my Jingnan territory and protect the people of Jingnan. I hope you will abide by military discipline and not let this princess down."
But when Gao Ruoyu spoke with a serious tone and his expression was solemn, Lin Yi and several other commanders quickly stood up from Xiudun and said in unison: "I will keep it in mind."
Seeing this, the soldiers paused for a moment and said in unison: "We will keep it in mind."
Although more than 300 people shouted in unison, they were not very loud. I think these people had not adapted to the role of the thief to the soldiers. Gao Ruoyu didn't care and smiled: "From now on, this island will be the garrison of Longwei Camp, and the soldiers will be able to train troops on this island in the future..."
Before he finished speaking, the soldiers in the hall shouted in unison, "Let's obey the order." At this time, the shouting shocked the entire manor.
The soldiers were originally thieves, but they had no choice but to surrender to the Jingnan Dynasty and mixed up in various guard camps. Most of them were despised. When they heard Min, Gu and others informed them that they would be happy, but they were afraid that they would still be stationed in the city and were finally restrained. At this time, they heard that they were stationed on Wolong Island, and they were all overjoyed, so they naturally responded loudly.
Gao Ruoyu laughed in his heart and said slowly: "If you go through the past, you will not blame the soldiers stationed on the island. If you are guilty, you will be punished with a higher level. If you are meritorious, you will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver in addition to the additional position of the princess." The soldiers cheered again when they heard this.
"Marching and fighting are very different from the soldiers who usually act and fight. The Japanese princess of the Ming Dynasty will send a captain to supervise the church. If they may lead the soldiers to march and fight, are they afraid that the soldiers will not be afraid?"
Most of the people in the hall were outlaws, and they had a headache about the laws of the military camp. However, if they said they fought desperately with others, they were not afraid of death. But when Gao Ruoyu asked, they all raised their arms and shouted:
"Not afraid..."
"I will never refuse to die..."
Thinking that he had released all the heroic spirit of robbing other people's property, Lin Yi and others smiled bitterly.
Gao Ruoyu knew that if these grassroots figures were properly controlled and exerted their blood, their bravery and fierceness could be one to ten or hundreds. He was very happy and looked at Han Yue and chuckled: "Go and order Deacon Yan to prepare enough wine and food later, and reward the soldiers on behalf of this princess to celebrate the establishment of the Longwei camp. All the soldiers should have the best drinks tonight."
When Han Yue left, Gao Ruoyu also sat up and came to Lin Yi and others, saying, "I have important things to do here and cannot stay here for a long time, so I will hand it over to the commanders here." After that, he took Geng Gongfeng out of the conference hall and left the island.
Gao Baoxu, who was nearly thirty years old in Jiangling City, was wearing a purple robe and regular clothes and was thin, sat in the hall. After listening to Gao Ruoyu's story, he frowned, "How could Yumei send Mr. Tan to Chanzhou at such a moment? What if Uncle Wang does something..."
Gao Ruoyu said with a shameless look: "I was anxious. On the way back from Wolong Island, I ordered Gongfeng Geng to go and catch him. I guess he will catch up tomorrow. Brother Ten, don't worry... I have already asked him to go to Wolong Island to teach Longwei Camp to train troops."
After hearing Lin Yi's words on the island, she had roughly concluded the origin of Luo Xiaoyao, so she asked Geng Chongfeng to recover Tan Chongfeng, thinking that after the rebellion was quelled, she would send someone to Kaifeng to find out the source of Jiang Qiubai in order to implement her guesses.
"I took someone to Uncle Wang's mansion today... and invited him to the palace to discuss matters, but he refused to go. He may have some actions soon. Most of the officials in the city would like to watch from the wall. I have ordered the captain of the Ma Jian Army to secretly monitor the people close to Uncle Wang who usually goes to. If there is any abnormal movement, it will be easy to control." Gao Baoxu pondered.
Gao Ruoyu nodded: "Now there are three masters from the Southern Tang Dynasty coming to his mansion, plus the figures of the gangsters under him, there should be as many as eight or nine martial arts masters."
"I think he will send someone to assassinate you, Brother Wang and Brother Ten, first... There are only seven guest officials in the royal palace and the Suwei camp. As a secret chess, Longwei camp should not be used at this time. It is better for Brother Ten to stay in the royal palace first to avoid being defeated by them... Brother Ten, you cannot tolerate any mistakes."
Most of the political affairs in Jingnan were represented by Gao Baoxu, the tenth-ranked Gao family. If Gao Baoxu was assassinated, the officials who were waiting and watching in Jiangling Prefecture would definitely turn to Gao Congyi. Jiangling Prefecture may be taken by Gao Congyi at that time.
"No, this matter has not reached a clear point. If I live in Brother Wang's mansion, I will be known to him. If I turn the matter into a clear way, he will jump over the wall and raise troops to rebel clearly. The situation will be difficult to control. There are two enshrined gods in my office, plus a group of guards and the Fengming Guards who are secretly hidden in the sect. If it is not the so-called people in the lofty realm of the world in the world, it will be not easy for me to assassinate the Tenth Brother."
Gao Ruoyu pondered for a moment: "I will send a priest to secretly hide when I return to the palace. If there is an assassin in the past or two days... it will be easy to support him." Although Gao Ruoyu has a title, he has no fiefdom and has no mansion, so he lives in his brother's palace in Nanping.
Gao Baoxu thought about it and responded to Gao Ruoyu's arrangement.
One evening, in the courtyard hall of the village west of Jiangling City, Lin Yi and Shang You heard the servant report that it was Luo Xiaoyao's arrival, so they went to the courtyard gate to greet him together.
When he saw Luo Xiaoyao, Lin Yi bowed and smiled, "Young Master Luo is here. Lin is lucky. Please come in quickly." He learned about the background of Luo Xiaoyao's sect and spoke in a humble manner.
That day, after Luo Xiaoyao and Wu Wangbo and others discussed, they and Fang Yuan went to Jiangling branch hall. When Fang Yuan and the branch hall manager went to ask someone to inquire about the list of monks in the temple, they also went out to look for Shangyou. But when Lin Yi saw the gift, they smiled and replied: "Here is polite to the master of the hall."
After arriving at the hall, Lin Yi said, "Mr. Lin heard Mo Bushan's words a few days ago, and only then did he know that Lord Lingzun was in a bad state. I wonder what happened?"
Luo Xiaoyao didn't want Mo Bushan to follow him and sent him back to Luling. He didn't expect Mo Bushan to tell others about the matter of the prefecture and state. He smiled bitterly and knew that he could not hide it at this time, so he bowed and replied: "Thank you, Lord Lin, for your concern, my father has not recovered."
Lin Yi had already guessed that he had not found the Master of the Nascent Soul Realm whom Mo Bushan was telling him. He thought that Luo Xiaoyao came here not only to find a sword to Princess Gao, but to what Princess Gao said was to search for the Ming Wu monk, and said, "Is Prince Luo here to visit a monk?"
Luo Xiaoyao was surprised and guessed that Gao Ruoyu must have ordered Lin Yi and others to help find Ming Wu, so he nodded, "That's right."
Lin Yi recounted what Han Yue said in Suwei Xingyao, and Luo Xiaoyao was shocked, "This means that Master Wu is only in Guizhou?"
"It should be like this after what Han Yue said. Five days have passed. I think the officials who have gone to Guizhou should have news. Why don't Lin go to ask the princess for inquiries?"
"Thank you for your concern to Master Lin. I have made an appointment with the princess. Please tell the princess that I will go to Tingtao Courtyard tomorrow... I suddenly think that something is going to be handled, so I will say goodbye first."
Luo Xiaoyao learned that there was no monk in Ming Dynasty and could only be in Guizhou, so he wanted to go to the branch hall to notify Fang Yuan first and then make plans. Seeing that he looked anxious, Lin Yi and Shang You did not dare to keep him, so he had to send him out.
The next morning, Luo Xiaoyao came to the house again, and as promised, he wanted Lin Yi to take him to Wolong Island to visit Gao Ruoyu, but Lin Yi was out, so he could only wait in the house.
There are no outsiders here. After entering the hall and sitting down, Shangyou mentioned the matter of Gao Ruoyu's establishment of the Longwei Camp.
Luo Xiaoyao sighed when he heard this: "This Princess Gao is not as good as a man, but it is admirable... So, Lord Lin should be the Commander Lin, and his junior brother should be the Chief Commander, right? Congratulations, congratulations."
Shang You blushed for a moment: "If it weren't for Commander Lin, my junior brother would have wanted to go to Zhongyuan to find Uncle Jiang. Now it would be a embarrassing me. If the Great Zhou rushes his troops south in the future, what should I do?"
Luo Xiaoyao was stunned when he heard this. Shang You's concerns were indeed reasonable. But he thought that Shang You's family was in Tangzhou, Central Plains, and should be the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Now he joined the army in Jingnan. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If my junior brother is willing to join the uncle of the master, he should make an explanation with Commander Lin as soon as possible. I think Commander Lin is also a member of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He should have knowledge of the big things. Moreover, Commander Lin is not a person who seeks gratitude. Moreover, my junior brother has no family in this Jingnan area at this time. If you have a long time, you may have a change..."
"Thank you for your advice from Senior Brother. I will tell Commander Lin tomorrow that as Senior Brother said, Commander Lin is open-minded and will not stop me from going..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Lin Yi and Geng Gongfeng enter the yard. Shang You and Luo Xiaoyao looked at each other and stood up to greet each other.
When Geng Gongfeng saw Luo Xiaoyao, he bowed and smiled, "After leaving, Mr. Luo has become more and more extraordinary in appearance. Geng is polite."
Luo Xiaoyao smiled slightly and bowed back to the gift.
"When the princess learned that Mr. Luo was invited to come to Commander Lin's mansion to wait. Unexpectedly, Mr. Luo had arrived early, haha... I wonder if Mr. Luo is convenient to go there at this time?"
Luo Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "Then it's Mr. Geng."
Following Geng Gongfeng, he headed to Jiangling City. He thought that Gao Ruoyugui was the princess of Jingnan, and probably lived in the palace of the city. As expected, Geng Gongfeng led Luo Xiaoyao to a Tangdafu courtyard in the city, but it was the palace of Nanping.
When I entered the mansion, I arrived at a vestibule that was more than 30 meters deep. But to the north was a hall more than two meters high. There was a plaque decorated with gold and powder hanging in the middle, with three big characters "Wen'an Hall" written on it. I think it was the hall where the King of Nanping discussed affairs.
As Geng Gongfeng walked towards the courtyard to the west, he went up the corridor, turned several corridor bends, and came to a hall that faced north and south, more than meter high in front of the hall hall. There were several female guards wearing swords standing on both sides of the hall hall. He walked into the hall, but saw a green jade desk table in front of the main seat, and three sandalwood short tables were placed in each guest room on both sides of the east and west.
Geng Gongfeng led Luo Xiaoyao to the first seat of the guest seat in the west, and bowed and said, "Young Master Luo is sitting for a while, Geng went to report to the princess."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the hall. He saw two maids bringing tea in, putting the tea bowl on Luo Xiaoyao's desk, and leaving.
After about half a cup of tea, I heard the sound of "See Princess" outside. Then Han Yue and the Fengmingtang woman who used a knife appeared on both sides of the door of the hall. Then a woman appeared, with her black hair tied high with a green jade hairpin, a long gown with a moon white collar, a long skirt with a light yellow and dark flowers and a floor skirt, a silk ribbon of the same color tied her waist, a silk shoulder, and a goose-shaped face, with a pair of facial features, a pair of red phoenix eyes under the Yue's eyebrows and a flowing smile. It was Gao Ruoyu, followed by Geng and Tan.
Luo Xiaoyao saw Gao Ruoyu's bright and radiant appearance, but he was so majestic that he didn't dare to look directly at him and bowed his head and bowed: "I've seen the princess."
"Young Master Luo has been waiting for a long time." Gao Ruoyu smiled slightly, hugged Han Yue and others, slowly walked to the main seat and sat down.
"When Mr. Luo came, Ruoyu asked Mr. Geng to invite him. He must have disturbed the rest early in the morning." At this time, he did not call himself the princess.
Luo Xiaoyao smiled slightly, "You are polite, Princess."
"Mr. Mo returned the day before yesterday and told the young master what happened. For the sake of Fengwuqin, he put the young master in danger. Ruoyu felt uneasy. I hope Mr. Luo would forgive me." Gao Ruoyu apologized on his face.
Luo Xiaoyao thought that she had not finished her words, so he did not respond. He heard Gao Ruoyu continue, "Ruoyu was worried that Wuyan would meet Master Luo, so he has been working hard to find the traces of the Ming Wu monk for several days. With the heart of Mr. Kuan, it can be regarded as Ruoyu's love for the prince to return him to find the qin."
Luo Xiaoyao's eyes lit up when he heard this: "So the princess found the monk Ming Wushen?"
To be continued...
