Ren Shaoming, nicknamed "Qingjiao", was once the leader of the Iron Cavalry Club, one of the eight gangs and ten guilds. His true identity is the only son of Tiele master "Flying Eagle" Qu Ao. He secretly helped Lin Shihong through his alliance with the Yingui Sect.

Expanding territory, occupying Wuxi, Jinling, Jiujiang and other places, his meteor hammer kung fu has already ranked among the most extraordinary skills.

First he stirred up trouble in the Lingnan area, and was later killed by Song Que, the Heavenly Sword, and fled. Then, not long after he was driven out of Lingnan, he was jointly assassinated by Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. From then on, he became arrogant.

The Iron Cavalry was instantly leaderless and turned into a mess.

Even, not long after Ren Shaoming's death, the out-of-control Iron Cavalry Association started a fight with Lin Shihong, who had a close relationship with him?

Because of this, just one month later, when the Iron Cavalry and Lin Shihong's men were both injured and exhausted, the surprise attack of the Double Dragon Army of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling achieved great success, not only defeating the remnants of the Iron Cavalry in one fell swoop.

Directly occupying Jiujiang City and expelling the remnants of Lin Shihong's army who tried to get involved in Jiujiang, they also directly pushed the battle line hundreds of miles south of Jiujiang, causing Lin Shihong to suffer a huge loss but had no choice but to do anything.

Because, almost at the same time, the Song clan responded to Kou Zhong's request and began to mobilize troops and generals to frequently move at the junction of Lingnan and Lin Shihong's forces. Lin Shihong was instantly in a difficult situation and had to shrink his troops and switch to defense.

In this way, after occupying and contiguous large areas of fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River such as Yuhang County and Jiujiang County, the Ssangyong Army joined Haikou with strong soldiers and horses guarding a long route of the Yangtze River. Immediately, it became famous and the limelight was unparalleled.

Almost instantly, it became one of the strongest armies most qualified to compete in the world.

Then, after occupying Jiujiang, due to the expansion of its territory, the Ssangyong Army began a new round of emergency recruitment of soldiers. Soon the number of troops skyrocketed to more than 100,000 and was claimed to have 200,000. It vaguely possesses the strongest strength as Jiangbei.

Du Fuwei's Jianghuai army faced off across the river and his long and short abilities.

But...

Although the current performance of the Ssangyong Army is indeed eye-catching and the momentum of development is also very rapid, Jiangnan is still far behind compared with the Central Plains. In addition, the time is approaching the Dragon Boat Festival. Therefore, at this moment, all the heroes in the world

His eyes were no longer on that remote place in the south of the Yangtze River, but were all focused on Luoyang.

because……

The rumor that "He's Bi and Yang Gong's treasure, if you get one of them, you can win the world" will obviously make the heroes of the world even more tempted and look askance!

Now, both the 'He's Bi' and 'Yang Gong's Treasure' will appear in Luoyang, and the heroes from all over the world are excited to hear the news. Everyone wants to get one or both of the two treasures recognized by the world, so

Ah, except for the fact that a few thoughtful people secretly remembered the change of ownership in one city or one place in Jiujiang, most people didn't pay much attention to it.

Even including Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling, after they stabilized the situation in Jiujiang, although they obviously wanted to return home to Yuhang, in fact they had to secretly disguise themselves and lurk along the canal.

Head north to Luoyang.

Half a month later.

The two of them, with a group of capable subordinates, hurriedly and slowly arrived at Luoyang a few days before the Dragon Boat Festival. In the name of business travel, they infiltrated the city of Luoyang, which had already become a mixed bag.

On the night he entered the city, Kou Zhong set out alone, saying he was going to check out some locations. At the same time, he also said he wanted to see if he could talk to Wang Shichong of Luoyang and discuss some important matters.

then!

Xu Ziling, who couldn't stay alone in the stronghold, was depressed, so he began to wander around Luoyang City, and soon came to the "Tianjin Bridge", the chain bridge across the Luo River in Luoyang, to relax and sigh.

Thinking about my own thoughts.

Later, when Xu Ziling looked at Luo Shui and lamented the huge changes in personnel in less than two years, he lamented that two years ago, he and Gao Zhong were just two fifteen or sixteen-year-old thieves and pickpockets in Yangzhou City, but now

But when he was already a hero, he unexpectedly met Li Shimin, the second son of the Li clan who made Kou Zhong decide to embark on the road to world hegemony?

However, Xu Ziling didn't want to know whether it was really an accidental encounter or whether the other party had deliberately found it. He just greeted the other party politely and continued to talk together under the night moonlight and lamented that the two sides had been together for more than a year.

It’s just a huge change in identity that I haven’t seen yet.

Come to think of it!

I think back when he and the two brothers Kou Zhong were stranded on the Dongming, they were lucky enough to sit at the table and get to know each other only because of their master Anne. At that time, the other party must not have considered them very much.

Do you take it to heart?

As a result, just over a year later, he and Kou Zhong had already become heroes and occupied the vast and fertile areas in the south of the Yangtze River connecting Yuhang and Jiujiang. At the same time, they also had more than 100,000 troops. Even the Li clan in front of him now

It all depends on the faces of the two brothers.

Otherwise, if they are offended, their Ssangyong Army will become ruthless and directly block the waterway, which will directly cut off a considerable part of the salt, iron, weapons and other important strategic materials transported to the Li clan's territory in the northwest. This will be quite fatal.

Naturally, the two of them are just talking casually now, and their respective territories are far from bordering each other, so they are quite harmonious and there is no intention of any tension at all.

As they were talking, soon, under Xu Ziling's slightly shocked gaze, Li Shimin began to put on airs and deliberately expressed his feelings in front of him about the general trend of the world that the two of them were discussing, and made a look of compassion, concern for the world, and harmony.

Want to get Xu Ziling's support to calm down the troubled times and give the people of the world a peaceful mind and ambition?

With such ambition and ambition, Xu Ziling might have bowed his head a year ago, but at this time, his identity and status are no longer the same as they were more than a year ago, and his knowledge and vision have also been greatly expanded.

But Xu Ziling was not in a hurry to talk.

Because he was not stupid, he could vaguely see that Li Shimin in front of him seemed to be prepared, and he seemed to have the outrageous intention to instigate him or persuade him to change his family, so that he could leave his brother Kou Zhong.

Ridiculous idea?

Of course, the other party didn't directly say those words openly, but between the two of them, the other party meant that clearly and secretly.

While Xu Ziling dealt with the other party politely, he was slandering and ridiculing him in his heart.

Because he really couldn't understand who gave the other party so much courage that he dared to pry his corner openly?

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ziling's suspicion came true!

Soon, as they continued to chat without hitting on each other, and just when the topics they talked about gradually became less and less, and they were about to break up on bad terms, the other party's backstabbing really appeared:

Under the moonlight, on the bridge tower of the bridge, there is a slim beauty holding a color sword. She has long flowing black hair and fluttering clothes. She seems to have just come with the wind, and as if she will leave with the wind at any time.

A peerless fairy appeared who had a kind of detachment from the world and was difficult to be touched by ordinary people.

And the two most beautiful women Xu Ziling has ever seen so far, that is, the woman who is completely different from the alluring beauty of the demon girl Huanwan and the fresh, smart and cold beauty of Shi Qingxuan, are not who they are. It is surprisingly Cihang Jingzhai who entered the world.

The successor——Shi Fei Xuan!

Immediately afterwards, under the astonishment and gaze of Xu Ziling, the concubine Xuan first consulted and discussed with Li Shimin in front of Xu Ziling, and led him into an illusion similar to the magic of the devil. After saying that he had passed the examination, he pretended to be

Yang Di began to discuss with Li Shimin the ways of 'ruling a country' and 'being a king'?

While the two were chatting and criticizing Yang Guangkou, Xu Ziling quickly roughly understood what the other party meant based on the previous rumors in the world and the rumors about the 'He's Bi', and roughly knew what the two people in front of him were saying.

When a person sings this double yellow in front of himself, he is preparing to act in a play.

However, he did not show it. Even though he had already sneered in his heart at this time, he still just smiled gently and listened silently, and silently remembered the exchange between the two in his heart.

"Brother Xu!"

"What do you think of what King Qin just said?"

Suddenly, just when Xu Ziling vaguely felt that this trip to Luoyang was probably just a conspiracy of Cihang Jingzhai, and except for Li Shimin in front of him, the rest of the people were just foils and secretly anxiously thinking about countermeasures. To his surprise, the division

Fei Xuan suddenly turned to him and asked.

"this……"

"Ashamed to say that!"

"I have been living in the market since I was a child. I have never read any books. It is only in the past two years that I have had the opportunity to leave Yangzhou and travel around the world. Regarding the ways of 'being a king' and 'being a government' that Brother Shimin just mentioned, I still have

It’s not easy to evaluate the political strategy of ‘seeking healing in silence’.”

"only……"

Halfway through speaking, Xu Ziling suddenly stopped and hesitated, with a trace of tangle on his face, as if he didn't know whether to continue speaking.

"Brother Xu, it doesn't matter if you say it!"

"yes!"

"What do you think Zi Ling has to say?"

Seeing that Xu Ziling suddenly became hesitant, the fairy-like concubine Xuan and Li Shimin first looked at each other, and then they both asked with interest.

"All right!"

"It's actually not that big of a deal!"

"only……"

"Young man, you don't dare to agree with what Brother Shimin and Master Shixian just said, that Yang Guang is a coward and tyrant?"

After a moment of silence, Xu Ziling finally spoke up.

"!

"

"this!

"

"Ziling!"

"Why is this?!"

Hearing Xu Ziling suddenly mention Yang Guang, the foolish emperor who was despised by the world, and seemed to mean to complain for him, and even ignored his own views on the world, Li Shimin looked at each other again and hurriedly

asked in shock.

"Ashamed to say that!"

"A year and a half ago, when we were aboard the Yuhang Dongming, my brother Kou Zhong and I had the honor to discuss with our master the merits and demerits of the late Sui Emperor Yang Guang, as well as the rights and wrongs."

"At that time……"
