Chapter 190 Extra Four
Student gathering (1)
Alcoholism, violence, beatings, coercion.
Endless pain and hoarse screams.
Chu Yunyang woke up from the nightmare, turned over and sat up suddenly, and broke out in a cold sweat. His originally frizzy hair was now wet and stuck to his neck.
He was the young master of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, a young general who became famous in a battle on the northwest border at the age of fourteen, and later the emperor's right-hand man and a pillar of the country.
But he had a nightmare.
He dreamed that when he was eighteen years old, he was summoned to Beijing by the emperor at that time. The emperor gave him countless gold and silver and made him a mighty general.
However, just as he was about to leave the capital and return to the northwest battlefield, the emperor forced him to stay in the palace in the name of a farewell banquet.
The emperor vented all his desires on him, cutting the tendons in his hands and feet, tying him up with gold chains, and even suppressing his family and humiliating his father and brothers.
Three years later, the enemy invaded and the emperor had no choice but to release him from the palace and let him fight.
In the end, due to the torture he suffered and the fact that he forced himself to go to the battlefield, his body collapsed and he died together with the emperor, thus creating a beautiful love story.
And now...
The screams in my ears slowly disappeared, replaced by the slight sound of wind blowing through the window paper and the chirping of insects in the grass in the middle of the night.
When Chu Yunyang thought of the scene in his dream, his head felt like it was about to split apart.
He clenched his fists and hit his head hard, making a bang bang sound.
Suddenly, he found something wrong.
His hands...
Chu Yunyang lowered his head and looked at his hands in disbelief.
His hands still looked a little tender, without the calluses from years of martial arts practice.
What's going on?
Chu Yunyang looked around and realized that he was not in the military camp, nor in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, but...
In the inn!
Chu Yun suddenly stood up, rushed to the basin of water beside the couch, and looked at his reflection in disbelief.
Eighteen years old.
He returned to the time when he was eighteen years old and was summoned to the capital for the first time.
Could it be because of the dream just now?
A chill ran through his heart. Could it be that... everything that was going to happen would develop according to his dream?
Will he be forced to be insulted, imprisoned and trampled upon by the current emperor?
In the end, you have to go out to fight and die with the emperor?
No! Never!
Chu Yunyang suddenly remembered something and rushed out the door.
Oh, right! Master! Master, bless you!
He must tell Master Zhu about this dream immediately and discuss countermeasures with him!
Chu Yunyang rushed out and ran towards the teacher's room following his memory.
He stood in front of the door, unable to control his strength, raised his hand, and slammed the door hard: "Master! Master!"
But no one responded from the door.
Chu Yunyang gathered his strength and knocked on the door again: "Master, it's me, Chu Yunyang."
But there was still no answer from the other end. For a moment, the corridor was so quiet that Chu Yunyang could only hear his own breathing.
"Master, are you there? I came right in..."
Chu Yunyang waited for a while, but he couldn't hold back any longer and pushed the door open.
The next second, Chu Yunyang stood there in a daze.
This is an empty room with only simple furniture, a bed, a table and chairs.
The window was blown open by the wind, rolling up the bed curtains, and dust flew towards Chu Yunyang, blinding his eyes.
Chu Yunyang subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, and his vision became dizzy.
When he opened his eyes again, the soldiers and servants who had followed him were all around him.
"Little General? Little General? What's wrong? What happened?"
Chu Yunyang leaned against the wall, shook his head, tried to open his eyes wide, and scanned everyone around him.
No, there is no Master Zhu.
Chu Yunyang asked, "Where is Master Zhu? Where is Master Zhu?"
Everyone frowned, not knowing what was going on. They looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
"What is Master Zhu? Who is Master Zhu?"
"It's Master Zhu, the master who has been teaching me the art of war. Duke Ying, young master, didn't he accompany me to the capital?"
"Young General, what nonsense are you talking about? Where is there a teacher teaching military tactics? Only a few of us followed you and are all here."
As they spoke, they reached out to touch Chu Yunyang's forehead.
He might have burned his brain.
Chu Yunyang brushed their hands away: "Go away."
Impossible. Master Zhu was his mentor. He not only taught him the art of war, but also saved him several times and taught him many principles of life.
Master Zhu later became the imperial tutor and taught the emperor.
How come the Master is missing?
Chu Yunyang turned his head and looked at the empty room.
how so?
Chu Yunyang was sent back to his room by everyone. He sat on the bed, still unable to figure it out.
He grabbed his personal guard and wanted to ask him again about Master Zhu.
But the guards looked at him blankly, as if there was no such person as Master Zhu in the world. If he continued to talk nonsense like this, the guards would immediately go and call a doctor for him.
Chu Yunyang hesitated, but finally let go of his hand.
No, I can't ask anymore.
If he asks further, he will be regarded as a lunatic.
Chu Yunyang dismissed his personal guards and sat alone in the room, lost in thought.
Master Zhu is missing and he is about to go to Beijing. What should we do now?
He tried hard to recall how Master Zhu had handled the situation in his previous life. He jumped off the bed, took a piece of paper, and prepared to write a letter to his father and brother.
rebel.
This is what Master Zhu did in his previous life.
Things can't get any worse, just be reckless.
Chu Yunyang quickly wrote a letter, asking his father and brother to prepare the troops and be ready to support him at any time.
Of course, in order to prevent them from not believing him, he deliberately described his dream in detail.
There is no need to hide this kind of thing, his family will believe him.
Finally, Chu Yunyang opened the window, called the goshawk with a bamboo whistle, and asked the goshawk to deliver the letter.
He stood by the window, watching the hawk fly away, feeling more and more uneasy.
Is he really the only one who remembers Master Zhu? What if...
*
Everything was going according to the dream.
Chu Yunyang came to Beijing with his personal guards. As soon as he arrived, he was treated with favor by the emperor at that time.
Rewards were sent to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion like water, and Chu Yunyang was invited to endless banquets in the palace.
Since Master Zhu was not around, Chu Yunyang did not dare to let his guard down.
While trying to please the emperor, he kept in touch with his family and steadily advanced his rebellion.
That night, there was a banquet in the palace.
At the emperor's instruction, several young masters held up their wine glasses and took turns walking up to Chu Yunyang to toast him.
Chu Yunyang understood, holding the wine glass, pretending to drink with them, but actually drinking half and leaking the other half. He used to drink at home often, and he had a good alcohol tolerance.
Three rounds of drinks passed, and then three more rounds.
Chu Yunyang's face was flushed, and he slumped over the table, as if he had passed out from drunkenness.
The emperor, sitting on the high throne, saw that things were almost done, and announced the end of the palace banquet.
Several young masters withdrew as instructed, and the eunuchs came over and helped Chu Yunyang up.
"The young general is probably drunk. Let's help him out."
Chu Yunyang hung his head, drunk as a puddle of mud, unable to be helped up.
The eunuchs helped Chu Yunyang to the side hall, put him on the bed, and helped him wipe his hands and face to wash away the smell of alcohol.
Then, as if to take credit, he ran to inform the emperor: "Your Majesty, everything is ready."
The emperor raised the corners of his lips, strode forward, walked to the bed, and looked down at Chu Yunyang.
Chu Yunyang was drunk and lying on the bed, unconscious.
The emperor reached out his hand and rubbed Chu Yunyang's cheek with his knuckles.
The next second, Chu Yunyang let out a "wow", tilted his head, and spit on the emperor's hand.
The emperor was startled, and withdrew his hand as if he was burned: "Someone come! Someone come!"
The eunuchs rushed over with basins and towels in their hands: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
The emperor put his dirty hands into the basin with a look of disgust.
Chu Yunyang was still "drunk". He turned his head away and couldn't help but smile.
The emperor washed his hands, reached out to Chu Yunyang again, patted his face, and tried to wake him up.
Chu Yunyang woke up slowly and found that the person in front of him was the emperor, so he immediately apologized.
Without waiting for him to get up, the emperor put his hands on his shoulders and pressed him down on the bed: "Young general, you are drunk. Lie down. I love you."
Chu Yunyang had a terrified expression on his face. He struggled to break free and rushed towards the door, but was held down by a group of young eunuchs.
Several eunuchs held down his hands, several held down his feet, and several more had already reached out to his lapels.
"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty."
A secret smile appeared on the emperor's face. He rolled up his sleeves and took out the white jade ointment: "I will come in person."
So the eunuchs withdrew their hands and just held Chu Yunyang down tightly.
Chu Yunyang's eyes were red with anger, and he roared, "How dare you!"
"I am the true dragon emperor, what do I have..."
The emperor hadn't finished speaking yet.
Suddenly, there was a clanging sound coming from somewhere.
A vase hit the emperor on the head from behind.
At the same time, Chu Yunyang held a dagger in his hand and slashed the eunuchs around him fiercely, but these eunuchs were not his target, his target was the emperor.
Chu Yunyang held the dagger and thrust the sharp tip into the emperor's heart.
The emperor screamed and slowly fell down.
When the emperor fell, the two people standing behind him were revealed——
Xiao Chengan and Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan had already smashed the vase in his hand, but Xiao Chengan hadn't smashed the vase yet. He held it in his hand, afraid that he might miss the target and hurt Chu Yunyang by mistake.
Chu Yunyang's eyes lit up: "You guys..."
They were all Master Zhu's students. In their previous lives...
Now is not the time to talk about this.
Chu Yunyang climbed up from the bed and, together with Wei Yuan, captured the remaining eunuchs, tied their hands and feet, counted their numbers, and threw them into a corner.
Xiao Chengan said, "Yun Yang, you stay here and watch over these people. Wei Yuan, you go home right away and have General Wei control the troops in the city. No one is allowed to enter or leave without permission. I will go to the main hall right away and find the emperor's seal."
"OK."
The three of them seemed to have a tacit understanding from birth and began to act separately.
That's how it should be.
After working all night, the emperor died suddenly in his sleep. Xiao Cheng'an, as the emperor's only surviving brother, took charge of the situation.
They skillfully took back the military power and sent people to the royal temples to make public what the emperor had done.
Just like what Master Zhu did in his previous life.
After several busy days, the dust has finally settled.
Chu Yunyang, Xiao Chengan and Wei Yuan sat together, and for a moment they seemed to be hesitant to talk.
"I want to ask you..."
"When did you start preparing for the rebellion?"
"How do you know what's going on in the Royal Temple?"
"Do you guys...do you guys still remember...Master Zhu?"
As soon as the three words "Master Zhu" came out, the three of them immediately became energetic, looked at each other, and their eyes lit up.
"You...you remember too?"
After confirming each other's eyes, the three students immediately hugged each other and almost cried.
"No one remembers Master Zhu, I thought I remembered it wrong!"
"I thought so too! He was living a good life, but one night he suddenly became young again."
"How could this happen? What about Master Zhu? Where is Master Zhu?"
The three children discussed for a while and finally came to a conclusion -
This must be a test from Master Zhu to them!
Master Zhu wanted to see if they could get things done and pass the test without him being there.
Master Zhu must be watching them somewhere, observing their every move.
"Yes, that's it." Chu Yunyang was sure, "We can't let the Master down, we..."
Before he could finish his words, a white light flashed and a gust of wind blew, sweeping away all three students.
When they opened their eyes again, the three students were surprised to find that they had arrived at an extremely strange place.
There was a vast expanse of white everywhere, with no end in sight, which was extremely strange.
The three students subconsciously moved closer: "What's going on? What happened? Where is this?"
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the sky, and three more people fell from the sky.
They were also three young students, who looked to be in their teens, about the same age as them.
"Ah! Pei Zhen, you sat on my hand."
"Excuse me, but where is this? May I ask..."
Before Pei Zhen finished asking, there was another loud "boom".
This time there are two people.
"Pei Xuan, what happened? Did we both die suddenly?"
"Brother, I don't know."
"Pei Xuan, you are back to youth!"
"Brother, you also..."
The next second, the two saw Pei Zhen and Liu Yun not far away.
"Why are you two here?" Grandpa Liu An subconsciously wanted to step forward with his cane, but when he felt around him, he found that there was no cane at all, so he walked forward quickly with his young legs, "What's wrong with you two?"
Pei Zhen and Liu Yun looked at them in disbelief.
"Grandpa, we don't know what's going on..."
"Grandpa, you were so handsome when you were young."
It seems that the two groups of people know each other. Chu Yunyang and the other two are isolated and helpless. They can only huddle together and try to reduce their presence.
"Grandpa, you are knowledgeable and well-informed. Do you know what this is about?"
"How should I know? At first I thought Pei Xuan and I died together and came to the underworld, but how come you two and Jingzhe are here too?"
"We don't know either. We came here suddenly."
Pei Xuan said: "There are three young friends here, let's go over and ask them..."
Chu Yunyang and his group were still discovered. The three of them huddled together, trembling with fear: "Master Zhu, please save us! Help!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
"Your teacher's surname is also Zhu?"
“You guys too…”
With the final loud bang, Lu Nanxing and Cheng Yi from the world of cultivation appeared on the stage riding swords.
As soon as the two men fell to the ground, they heard them discussing their master and quickly raised their hands: "Our master's surname is also Zhu!"
Everyone looked at each other and said the name at the same time: "Zhu Qingchen!"
Lu Nanxing looked around and immediately couldn't hold back any longer: "No, there are so many people? How many disciples does the master have? Who am I?!"
At this time, the electronic sound of the system came from the air——
"Hello, students and disciples, welcome to the first 'Who is the most beloved student of the minister (ancient category including cultivation) competition'! Everyone, give a warm round of applause to welcome!"
