Chapter 133 Li Xian: I want to do one last thing for the emperor!Li Xian was dressed in brocade, had a big pot belly, and a square face with a white beard. Although he looked like a eunuch at first glance, he did not have the gloominess of a eunuch. Instead, he was upright and majestic. "Murong Fu? I've received reports before that he made quite a stir in Dali." Li Xian took the intelligence, opened it, glanced at it and said, "I didn't expect that he would go to Xixia again. I thought he was just a clown, but he turned out to be a serious threat to the Song Dynasty. He is planning to rebel!" Tong Guan was shocked and asked, "Is Murong Fu planning to rebel?" Li Xian said calmly, "The Murong clan is a Xianbei Hu surname. The ancestors of the Murong clan were keen on rebellion. However, a few hundred years have passed, and most of the Murong clan have stopped doing so. For example, Murong Yanzhao, the King of Henan in this dynasty, was one of the founding heroes of this dynasty, and the Emperor Taizu of this dynasty also respected him very much." "But there are also those who are not at peace, that is, the lineage of Murong Longcheng. You don't know anything about the martial arts world, and you don't understand how powerful Murong Longcheng is. Murong Longcheng is a martial arts genius who has created a magical skill called Dou Zhuan Xing Yi, which is invincible in the world. But when it was Murong Longcheng's turn to restore the country, the great grandfather had already won the battle, and Murong Longcheng could only live in seclusion in Gusu with hatred, and toss in the martial arts world." "Their lineage has always been determined to restore the country, but their actions to restore the country are very ridiculous. Therefore, although our Imperial City Bureau has discovered that they have the intention of rebellion, we have turned a blind eye. After all, the Murong family has been martial arts masters for generations, and they are very powerful. It is difficult to catch them if we mobilize a large army. We send a small number of people and are no match for them." "When it comes to Murong Fu, he is even less powerful. I regarded him as a clown, not to be feared. I didn't expect him to collude with Dali and Xixia successively. This is terrible." "The Western bandits are extremely hostile to our Great Song Dynasty. They have colluded with Murong Fu and will definitely support him to cause chaos. If Murong Fu is not killed in advance, he will become a disaster for our Great Song Dynasty." Li Xian obviously knew a lot and revealed all the secrets of Gusu Murong family.
"What? This guy is actually a traitor!" Tong Guan asked, "How are you going to deal with him, sir?" In the Song Dynasty, "Adult" refers to father. Tong Guan called Li Xian "Adult", which means the same as "Dad" in later generations. Li Xian sighed and said, "If the late emperor were still alive, I would have led a large army to destroy his Yanziwu. But the late emperor unfortunately passed away, and the empress dowager doesn't like me, so I can't mobilize a single soldier. The current emperor is quite like his father, and is a master with great talent and strategy. Unfortunately, the empress dowager is in power and the emperor can do nothing about it." "I don't have much time left. The late emperor has been very kind to me, and I want to repay him. Since Murong Fu is a martial artist, I will kill him in the way of a martial artist. This can be considered the last thing I do for the emperor!" Tong Guan knew that his adoptive father Li Xian's martial arts skills had reached an incredible level. While practicing the same Sunflower Manual, Li Xian's internal strength and speed were ten times that of Tong Guan. If Li Xian wanted to kill him, it would only take three or two moves. Tong Guan had also come into contact with so-called martial arts masters outside, but he felt that when those martial arts masters met Li Xian, they could not even withstand a single move from Li Xian. Li Xian used a flexible sword that could bend, and with its speed that was invisible to the naked eye, he was truly invincible in the world. Although Nan Murong was one of the most outstanding rising stars in the martial arts world, Tong Guan did not think that Murong Fu would be a match for Li Xian. "Sir, you have already practiced the Sunflower Manual to the highest level. It is not difficult for you to live to be a hundred years old. Why do you say that you don't have much time left?" Tong Guan was worried about Li Xian's health. Li Xian is his backer. If Li Xian is gone, it will have a huge impact on his career. After all, Li Xian was a meritorious official of the previous emperor, and was also favored by the current emperor Zhao Xu. If Li Xian could have lived a few more years, outlasted Empress Dowager Gao, and waited until Zhao Xu took power, he would have naturally been able to achieve great things. Li Xian is old, but Tong Guan is still young. If Li Xian recommended him to Zhao Xu, his future would naturally be limitless. "When I was young, I fought on the battlefield and suffered many hidden injuries. Although I created the Sunflower Manual later, the lost vitality could not be recovered. Especially during the last five-way attack on Xia, I fought too long with the woman from Xixia in order to cover the retreat of the various armies. That woman was very difficult to deal with, and our army was at a disadvantage. I consumed too much energy to stop her." Li Xian said dimly, "I am a family member and I know my own business. I have only been here for the past two years." "Sir!" Tong Guan had a sad face and was sincere in his feelings. Li Xian said, "Fortunately, I have found you as my successor. I have passed on my military and literary skills, as well as the Sunflower Manual, to you. The current emperor is a master who can remain dormant and patient, and even the collapse of the sky is not enough to destroy his will. If he takes power, he will naturally have to take every step carefully, destroy Xixia, and then march north to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. It is a tradition of our Song Dynasty to have eunuchs supervise the army, and the only eunuchs who may be qualified for this job are you and me. Your skills will be put to good use when the time comes."
"It is difficult for me to personally recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun for the Song Dynasty, but you have the opportunity. I hope you will be loyal to the Song Dynasty with a sincere heart. The Song Dynasty will definitely not treat you unfairly and will give you endless wealth!" "Yes, sir!" Tong Guan burst into tears and swore, "I will be loyal to the Song Dynasty, destroy Xixia, and take back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!" "Very good!" Li Xian said, "Prepare the boat, let's go to Gusu. I want to eliminate this scourge of Murong Fu before I die! Gusu Murong, give him back in his own way? Humph! I want to make the Murong family disappear from the Jianghu from now on!" Jiangnan. Suzhou Beggars' Gang branch. The bodies of the Beggar Gang disciples were placed in the mourning hall in the branch, all covered with white cloth. However, the beggars of the Beggars' Sect were extremely excited and furious, and they cursed Murong Fu one by one. "This Murong Fu is too arrogant. During this period, more than ten Beggars' Sect brothers have been killed by him and died under his famous skills!" "Murong Fu treats the Beggars' Sect like nothing. We must destroy Yanziwu and kill Murong Fu! To avenge our brothers!" "Kill Murong Fu and avenge our brothers!!!" The beggars shouted loudly. They really wanted to rush into Yanziwu and start killing people immediately. Quan Guanqing looked at this scene with a sad expression, but in his heart he felt a pleasure of playing with all the heroes in the world. Ever since he heard that Murong Fu had dealt with Ding Chunqiu, Quan Guanqing had been preparing the drama of "Southern Murong vs. Northern Qiao Feng". These days, he colluded with his accomplices, constantly killing Beggar Gang disciples and putting the blame on Murong Fu. It's too easy to put the blame on Murong Fu anyway. As long as these disciples die from his famous skills, the blame will be Murong Fu's. As the number of times he framed others increased, the hatred towards Murong Fu grew stronger and stronger among the people in the Beggars' Sect. Qiao Feng could no longer suppress the excitement of the Beggars' Sect. Some of them even became dissatisfied with him because he was too rational. And this is exactly the scene that Quan Guanqing wants to see. “Brothers, although it is very likely that Murong Fu was behind this, and although Murong Fu first killed Deputy Leader Ma of the Beggars’ Sect, and then killed so many of their disciples, we must listen to Leader Qiao and stay calm!” Quan Guanqing seemed to be speaking to Qiao Feng, but in fact he was using Qiao Feng’s red flag to oppose him, saying sarcastically, “We must guard against arrogance and impatience, and be patient! Leader Qiao has already launched an investigation, and will definitely get to the bottom of the truth! Leader Qiao is right, we cannot let a bad guy go, but we cannot wrongly accuse a good guy either!” Hearing Quan Guanqing say this, the beggars felt aggrieved! Although they did not dare to oppose Qiao Feng out loud, their dissatisfaction with Qiao Feng was constantly accumulating in their hearts. "Bear, bear, bear! Why couldn't you bear it when Boss Wang was here?!" "Yes, when Boss Wang was here, Murong Fu's father Murong Bo was also a master in the martial arts world. When did he dare to bully our Beggars' Sect?!" "Calm down! How can we stay calm when so many brothers have died?!" The members of the Beggars' Sect kept saying good things about Leader Wang, but they were actually indirectly criticizing Qiao Feng. At this moment, a voice came from outside: "The law enforcement elders are here!" "The elder who teaches skills has arrived!" "Elder Song, Elder Chen, Elder Wu, Elder Xi are here!" "Boss Qiao is here!" All Beggars' Sect disciples, starting from Quan Guanqing, went out to greet them.
Because those who came were almost all the current top leaders of the Beggars' Sect. First of all, there is the top leader, Qiao Feng, who has almost absolute power. Then came the law enforcement elder Bai Shijing and the power transmission elder Lu Zhang. The four elders, Song, Chen, Wu and Xi, are also the top leaders of the Beggars' Sect. "Greetings, Boss Qiao!" Quan Guanqing took the lead in saluting. The leader was a burly man wearing a coarse grey robe with patches on it, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose and a wide mouth, and a square face. Although he looked weathered, he looked majestic and his eyes were bright and lively. This sturdy man is none other than the leader of the Beggars' Sect, Qiao Feng, also known as the Qiao Feng of the North! Behind Qiao Feng are the elders of the Beggars' Sect. "No need to be so polite, take me to see the bodies of our brothers!" Qiao Feng said in a deep voice. "Yes!" Quan Guanqing brought Qiao Feng and others to the mourning hall, where they saw corpses under the white sheets. Bai Shijing said angrily, "What a lawless Murong Fu! Boss Qiao, you can't make excuses for Murong Fu anymore! No matter what, we have to ask Murong Fu for an explanation!" "Yes!" Elder Chen said, "Murong Fu is too cruel and crazy. He is simply treating our Beggars' Sect as a soft persimmon! If we don't take action now, more Beggars' Sect disciples will die in his hands!" Qiao Feng checked the corpses and found that they had indeed all died from his unique skills. The brothers of the Beggar Gang around them all had blazing eyes and were extremely angry. Qiao Feng felt a headache. According to his investigation, the death of Deputy Gang Leader Ma was most likely unrelated to Murong Fu. But now the old grudges have not been resolved and new hatreds have been added, and he cannot suppress the collective will of the Beggars' Sect. Although Qiao Feng felt that something was fishy, no matter how smart he was, he underestimated the wickedness of human nature. He would never have thought that these Beggars' Sect disciples were killed by their own ambitious people who wanted to seize power. "Then let's go to Yanziwu and ask for an explanation!" Qiao Feng knew that he could no longer retreat, so he could only speak in a deep voice. "Okay, Boss Qiao, it's time to do this!" "With Boss Qiao taking action, Murong Fu will definitely die!" "If he offends our Beggars' Sect, Murong will not have a good death!" All the brothers felt happy and cheered. Quan Guanqing said, "Boss Qiao, the location of Yanziwu is very secretive, and I am investigating. Once I have found out where Yanziwu is, I will go with you to Yanziwu to seek justice from Murong Fu for the brothers of the Beggars' Sect who were killed!" (End of this chapter)
