Mu Yeji smiled and said, "You really think highly of him."
"Mr. Six is extremely talented in martial arts, and few people in the world can match him." The boatman said, "It's just that Mr. Six didn't put his mind on the struggle for power. He may not be able to see through many things."
The boatman spoke very slowly, but it gave the impression that he was sincere without saying a word.
Mu Yeji giggled, her chest trembling, and said: "You praise me so much, I really can't do anything to you again."
"Mr. Six, do you know that the king of Zhennan, Murong Changdu, controls fourteen counties in two states in southern Xinjiang, has tens of thousands of soldiers, and has always been a thorn in the side of the Tang Dynasty?" The boatman's words were dull and emotionless, as if
Reading: "The imperial court sent Pei Xiaogong to lead tens of thousands of troops to guard the southern front line. Has it been preparing for Murong's army to advance north?"
Mu Yeji frowned and said, "What does this have to do with me?"
"Back then, there was a rebellion in three states and seven counties. Murong took advantage of the situation in southern Xinjiang and led the army northward under the pretext of suppressing the rebellion." The boatman said: "Although he returned in defeat in the end, he brought a disaster to the people all over the south.
Murong's army robbed countless people of money and food, ruined lives, and countless people died under the swords of southern Xinjiang."
Mu Yeji put her hands on her hips, shook her head and said, "I don't understand military matters, what's the use of telling me this?"
"As far as I know, looking at ancient and modern times, almost no one can surpass the sword god's cultivation in swordsmanship." The boatman looked at Mu Yeji and said seriously: "Throughout the ages, swordsmen have pursued the ultimate in swordsmanship, and some have even achieved true perfection.
The man and the sword have become one, but why are they still unable to break through to the ultimate level of swordsmanship and master that sword?"
Mu Yeji frowned and said, "I don't understand what you said."
"Swordsmen practice swordsmanship only to seek swords for themselves." The boatman said slowly: "Only the sword god has a benevolent heart and takes the way of heaven as the way of swordsmanship. The way of heaven is the way to protect all living beings, and protecting the people with swords is the way of heaven. Because
Only after the Sword God understood its secrets could he become the first swordsman to truly enter the Heavenly Way in hundreds of years." Staring into Mu Yeji's beautiful eyes, he asked: "Mr. Six, the Sword God has spent his life traveling around the world and visiting the marketplace.
Feel the fireworks in the world, don’t you understand his thoughts?”
Mu Yeji's face changed color slightly, and she said in surprise: "Who...are you?"
"The disciples of Sword Valley each have their own strengths." The boatman said: "Mr. Six has a good reputation. It is rumored that Mr. Six is greedy for gambling and has a smug attitude. Many people just think that Mr. Six has neglected his sword practice because of this. But the Sword God
For a lineage to reach the true pinnacle of swordsmanship, it is necessary to enter the world, feel the joys, anger, sorrows and joys of the world, and understand the way of heaven through this path. As long as one day can understand the true meaning of heaven's way from the earthly world, entering the world means escaping from the world, then you can
Make rapid progress in the way of swordsmanship and enter the true path of swordsmanship."
Mu Yeji's beautiful eyes flashed, looking quite surprised.
"The purpose of joining the world is to have benevolence in your heart." The boatman said: "In the words of the Sword God, it is to use the sword in your heart to kill the evil ghosts in the world and protect the peace of all people." After a pause, he continued: "Mr. Six is
Disciples of Sword Valley, you will naturally not violate the wishes of the Sword God."
Mu Yeji sighed quietly: "I seem to know who you are. But what does this have to do with Southern Xinjiang Murong?"
"Murong Changdu was very ambitious. He separated himself from one side and had many soldiers and horses. He was always waiting for the opportunity to go north to stir up trouble in the world." The boatman said: "Mr. Six, Pei Xiaogong, the general who commanded the southern army, was promoted by the prime minister. As we all know, Pei Xiaogong
The rise and fall of the country are closely tied to the state."
As soon as he said this, the Prime Minister Xiahou Yuanzhen, who had slowly stood up behind him, also frowned and looked at the boatman from behind, obviously wanting to see where this person came from.
"Once the Prime Minister is killed, Pei Xiaogong's backer in the court will immediately disappear." The boatman said straightforwardly: "Without his backer, Pei Xiaogong knows that his life or death is uncertain. How do you think Mr. Six will make his choice?"
The young aunt came to understand and said: "You mean he will rebel?"
"He has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Whether he supports his own troops or surrenders to Murong Changdu, the south will collapse in an instant." The boatman sighed: "If he surrenders to Murong Changdu, Murong Changdu will be even more powerful, and he will immediately send his troops northward.
If Pei Xiaogong stands on his own in the south and does not have the money and food supplies from the court, he will have no choice but to exploit the people in the south to maintain the tens of thousands of troops under his command. No matter how he chooses these two paths, the people will suffer. At that time, life will be ruined and countless people will be in ruins.
Wives will be separated and families will be broken up."
The young master's aunt's delicate body trembled, and her face became solemn.
"I wonder what your surname is?" The Prime Minister saw that the boatman not only came to rescue him, but also spoke for himself. It seemed that he was a friend rather than an enemy. He held his hands and said, "Sir, what you said is right. With Pei Xiaogong's temperament, he turned to Murong."
It is unlikely that he will become the capital, but it is very possible to support his troops in the south and stand on his own feet." He smiled faintly and said, "It's no wonder that he is here. He knows that the imperial court labeled me a traitor and he was assassinated on the way to exile. Once he is assassinated,
As far as he knows, he will only think that the assassin is sent by the imperial court. Since the imperial court wants to kill me, then naturally the general who is supported by me will not end well."
The young aunt was thoughtful and quickly shook her head and said, "What Pei Xiaogong chooses has nothing to do with me." She raised her finger and pointed at the Prime Minister and said, "He must die today."
The boatman came forward slowly, and the young aunt was immediately alert, but she saw the boatman walking past her. When he got to the spiritual tablet, he straightened his clothes, then knelt down on the ground and kowtowed three times to the spiritual tablet.
Then he stood up, turned to Mu Yeji and said, "Mr. Six, I'm here today, you can't kill him."
"You can give it a try!" the young master aunt sneered. "If the sword god were here, I believe he would not agree to you killing him at this time." The boatman said: "Mr. Six, there is still no chaos in the south. Kyoto
It's already in chaos. If the south becomes more chaotic, the whole world will also be in chaos. In fact, I don't care about the life and death of the prime minister, but we can't ignore the lives of the people in the world." He sighed and said, "The Xiahou clan is in Xichuan.
The forces are not weak, I'm afraid even Xichuan will be in chaos by then."
The young aunt smiled coldly and said: "Students are different. They worry about the world and talk about benevolence, justice and morality. Ye Guxing, Master sent you to protect him all the way?"
When Xiahou Yuanzhen heard the word "Master", his expression suddenly changed and he opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
"Mr. Six's wisdom is indeed extraordinary." The boatman said with a faint smile: "Yes, Master doesn't want to see the world in chaos, so he ordered me to escort the Prime Minister all the way to Suzhou. Master is sure that the disciples of Jiangu may take action halfway, but he can't
Determine which gentleman is here in person." After a pause, he said: "But no matter who it is, Master asked me to bring a few words."
"Oh?" asked the young master's aunt, "What are your instructions, Master?"
"Master said, in the past two years, please ask Jian Gu to be merciful and not harm the Prime Minister." The boatman said: "As long as the Prime Minister is safe and sound, Pei Xiaogong will not take risks and act rashly, and Xichuan will also wait and see what happens.
The world will not be in chaos." After a pause, he continued: "Master asserts that some people want to use Sword Valley to assassinate the Prime Minister, so as to cause chaos in the world and profit from it. Sword Valley must not become a tool used by those people.
.”
The young aunt smiled and said: "Two years?"
"Exactly." Boatman Ye Guxing nodded and said, "Two years later, Master will naturally give Jiangu a satisfactory explanation."
"Just because of his words, Jiangu has to wait for two years?" The young aunt sighed: "Although Master is a great master, don't you think too highly of yourself? Ye Guxing, I don't understand your world, if you can't even think of yourself
If I can't resolve all my grievances, what else can I do to save the world? If I see someone bullying the weak, I won't stand by, and if I see someone dying, I won't ignore it. But if someone hurts the people around me, I will never do it.
Why would anyone in the world be merciful?" A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "I have been waiting for nearly twenty years, and I don't have the patience to wait for another two years."
The Prime Minister looked solemn, stepped forward and said: "Mu Yeji, I admit that his death was related to me. But if he had stayed outside the customs and never returned to Beijing, how could he have ended up like that? Mu Yeji?
If you are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. Do you think that his death was just because he threatened the Xiahou family? His existence threatened too many people. How many people were troubled day and night because of his existence. From the moment he stepped into Kyoto
From the moment it starts, there is only one ending." He sighed and said with a wry smile: "Do you really think I have that much ability to decide his life or death?"
