I can't figure out what Emperor Jianshi wanted to do. He said he wanted to arrest Cheng Wang's family. He asked Cheng Wang to defend himself and scolded the Jin Yiwei for causing trouble. He said he didn't want to be arrested. This news spread all over the city. Even the old woman who was sitting on the street wearing sunglasses heard about it and was very excited to gossip with others. He said he wanted to arrest him. It is said that in the morning court, he personally said that he absolutely believed in Wang Cheng's innocence. When the rebellion broke out in the northwest, King Cheng not only failed to respond, but also sent troops and food to help the court fight against the rebels. He said he didn't want to be arrested. It was said that strings of Jin Yiwei were running to the northwest. There are several more spies from Jin Yiwei in the courtyard of the Hou Mansion. Chen Guanlou simply arranged to have a drink together, and the two grown men stayed up late at night, bragging shirtless in the yard. When it was late at night, Chen Guanlou suddenly said, "Jinyiwei went to the northwest to arrest people? Why didn't you go?" One sentence woke up the half-drunk Qi Wuxiu, "Brother, where did you hear these rumors? Jin Yiwei has made no move and has not arrested anyone. It's all nonsense from outside." "Really? Your level is not high enough. I guess you are keeping this important matter a secret internally. Tell me, who is missing from the Jin Yiwei recently? Is the missing person particularly awesome and reliable in doing things?" Qi Wuxiu shook his head repeatedly, refusing to admit it, "Brother, you are just making wild guesses."
"You are older than me, so you call me brother." "The master is a teacher! How about I call you senior?" "Get lost!" Chen Guanlou asked solemnly again, "Is there really no movement?" Qi Wuxiu came closer, lowered his voice, and said seriously: "There's really no movement!" Chen Guanlou doesn’t believe it! Is there such a big commotion in the market just a smoke bomb? Seriously speaking, if it weren't for someone who deliberately leaked the news, the common people would have no way of knowing about these important military and national events. If it is to be spread, it must also be spread among the official class. It's such a big deal that even the ladies on the street know about it. Who would believe it if there's nothing wrong with it? "Could it be that he is attacking in the east and in the west? The target is not King Cheng, but the Marquis of Pingjiang?" "Brother, don't say this nonsense. Marquis Pingjiang is an important minister of the country, and the military in the northwest depends entirely on him. How can the imperial court break its own arms?" "Some people may feel that they are so awesome that they no longer need arms and can handle everything with just a few running dogs." Chen Guanlou chuckled. Qi Wuxiu seemed to hear some kind of unspeakable danger from the laughter, and trembled subconsciously, "Brother, this is the capital, and under the emperor's feet, you can't mess around." Chen Guanlou glanced at the other party lightly, "I don't kill people, what are you afraid of?" Qi Wuxiu was embarrassed for a moment, but asked again: "You definitely won't kill people, right?" "Do you think I look like a murderer?" Qi Wuxiu shook his head repeatedly, picked up his wine glass and apologized. After drinking, Chen Guanlou no longer worried about things in the northwest. He asked curiously: "Is Master Qi from Jixia Academy related to your Qi family?" "It doesn't matter, they just happen to have the same surname." "The ninth-grade warrior from the Qi family has not shown up for such a long time. Do you know his whereabouts?"
"I really don't know. I have no contact with them. I guess they are not in the capital." "Tell me about your family's academic background. Whose family still has a ninth-grade warrior?" "Brother, is it possible that you are competing again?" "No martial arts competition, just a casual chat." Chen Guanlou was very sincere. Qi Wuxiu shook his head, indicating that he was unclear. He is the little shrimp in the family. Although he is a servant in Jinyiwei, he will not deliberately inquire about whose family has a ninth-grade warrior. Furthermore, even if a certain family raises a ninth-grade warrior, or has an ancestor with a particularly advanced level of cultivation, they usually do not move around in the capital. They usually stay in their ancestral home as a symbolic force for deterrence. Many families will hide this aspect, for fear that the palace will take notice of it and endanger themselves. There are several grandmasters in the palace alone. Anyway, apparently all the great masters are serving the palace. This is a rhetoric for external propaganda, and it also shows the power of the imperial power. It warns all the young people in the world to keep their tail between their legs and not to think about challenging the imperial power. The imperial power is supreme, and mortals like you can provoke it. It is your blessing to work like a cow and a horse honestly and pay taxes. Chen Guanlou knew that he couldn't find anything useful from Qi Wuxiu, so he gave up decisively. A friend has professional ethics and does not embarrass the other person. Early in the morning, he ran to Yuquan Palace to chat with Master Chunyang. "There must be other masters in the world. It is impossible that all the masters have been collected by the palace. Zhenren, you have traveled all over the world and often come into contact with wealthy people. In your opinion, how many masters are there in the world?" Master Chunyang was very confused, "Why does Chen Yucheng worry about the number of grandmasters?" "I just want to analyze from a probability perspective how difficult it is to become a master. A master's lifespan is hundreds of years, so there must be many old people still alive in the world." "You are confused. Martial arts has its own destiny. For example, Pindao, who was determined to pursue martial arts since he was a child, gave up his secular family and worldly happiness. However, his talent is limited and he relies on a lot of resources. With the accumulation of pills, you are only worthy of a seventh-level warrior. If you want to go further, it is really difficult. You are already far better than 99% of the warriors. You just need to follow the steps and you will reach the rank of master sooner or later. There are countless masters in the world, and you will find their traces sooner or later. Only the same kind can recognize the same kind at a glance!" Master Chunyang finally said something particularly philosophical. Just like a second-grade warrior would never recognize a ninth-grade warrior. A ninth-level warrior can tell at a glance whether the person in front of him is a ninth-level warrior, stronger or weaker than himself. "Is it true that a real person can't reveal a little bit of information? You must have met those hidden masters, right?" "Chen Yuucheng, your curiosity is too strong and has exceeded your level. As a ninth-level warrior, how can you inquire about the whereabouts of the Grandmaster? Aren't you afraid that the Grandmaster will come to you and kill you?" Master Chunyang smiled lightly and spoke calmly, but everything in his words was a threat. Not a threat from himself, but a threat from the Grandmaster. Chen Guanlou is such a smart person, he understands everything as soon as he hears it. Master Chunyang had naturally encountered the hidden master, but he refused to reveal a word. For the sake of his life, it was best not to discuss this topic. The implication is that the Grandmasters are elusive, and unless they are of the same level, it is absolutely impossible to discover the whereabouts of the Grandmasters. From his words, Chen Guanlou also heard that ninth-level warriors and masters were two different species. There is a huge gap! The ninth grade is still just a warrior. Grandmaster seems to have left the category of warrior and entered another realm. Could it be the difference between mortals and immortal cultivators? Is it possible that entering the realm of a master is equivalent to entering the realm of immortality? ! After all this speculation, he became excited. He wanted to hide in the deep mountains and forests immediately, stay in seclusion for three to five years, and then break through in one go.
However, when he thought about it, his reason reminded him that this was not possible. Cultivation needs to be done step by step. Before reaching that point, forcing a retreat to break through will be fatal! You have to wait until everything is ready, then you can break through the retreat.
