Chapter 485 Three Punches (4000 words)
"grown ups."
Mu Jin walked into a private room of a restaurant again.
"Mujin greets His Excellency."
Mu Jin, wearing a pink dress, bowed with a faint smile on her lips.
It seemed that for this woman, she had always been like this, always with a faint smile on her face, as if it had never disappeared.
"What's going on?"
The man was still sitting by the window drinking, with a few ordinary side dishes on the table.
"My Lord, the Jinyi Mansion is very lively now."
Mu Jin organized her words in her mind and said with a smile.
"Zheng Qiu's case has been resolved. When Zheng Qiu arrived at the interrogation room, he knelt down immediately and kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy. In the end, Zheng left a sum of money to the storyteller and his daughter.
The storyteller father and daughter forgave Zheng Liu and no longer pursued his responsibility, but according to Wu State law, Zheng Liu still had to be imprisoned for six months, and he has now been transferred to Jingzhao Prefecture. "
The man nodded and said, "Zheng Liu was just a casual move by us. Although he has no ability, he can see the situation clearly.
He knew that his son was just an introduction, and the protagonists were still Xu Ming and that great national pillar.
If he continues to meddle in this matter, there will be no good outcome for him, so it would be better for him to just take his son out of it.
Now that his son's mission as an induction has been completed, he naturally wants to find a way to get his son out.
If nothing unexpected happens, after half a year, when his son is born, Zheng Liu will resign from his post and return home.
There is no need to worry about it anymore. Just treat him as a rich man. He has indeed done a lot of things over the years, even if those things are useless. "
"Yes." Mu Jin nodded.
Based on Mu Jin's previous experience, she thought about whether she should get rid of her son and erase all traces, but since her master had said so, there was no need to do so.
Just think of it as that useless coward saving his life.
"Go on, how are Daguozhu and Xu Ming doing?" the man asked. "The two of them are what I care about the most. In my opinion, the conflict between these two people may not be resolved."
Mu Jin raised the corner of her mouth and said, "This is the most interesting part. At the beginning, Da Guozhu did not have a tough attitude towards Xu Ming. He was even a little humble. I was worried that our plan would not work.
But who would have known that our number one scholar, perhaps because he was too young, did not even give Da Guozhu any face.
Xu Ming insisted on convicting Mo Yuanshan.
Even if the great pillar of the country had taken out the golden medal of immunity from death, it would be of no use.
When the founding emperor of the Wu Kingdom gave the golden medal of immunity from death to Da Guozhu, he said that if anyone tried to convict him by force, they would have to take three punches from him.
As a result, Xu Ming actually stood in front of Da Guozhu and said that he wanted to try Da Guozhu's boxing skills.
This is the warrior of the end.
Even if Xu Ming had a certain talent in martial arts, even if that great national pillar could only punch at a level two levels higher than Xu Ming.
But these are, after all, two realms of a warrior’s ultimate state.
Not to mention that Da Guozhu's physical strength is much stronger than Xu Ming's.
In Mu Jin's opinion, it is not impossible that Da Guozhu beat Xu Ming to death.
All in all, this Xu Ming will definitely not be able to withstand that punch from Da Guozhu, and he might even try to show off.
After this incident, the relationship between the Jinyi Mansion and Daguozhu will be completely antagonistic.
The princess is now also in the Jinyiwei. At least the forces of Daguozhu will definitely not have any dealings with the Jinyiwei, just as we planned before."
“Hehehe”
After Mu Jin finished speaking, the man smiled and drank a glass of wine in the city.
"My old brother, how can I put it? He really still supports the current Emperor Wu.
But it's not incomprehensible.
After all, our Emperor Wu can indeed be considered a wise ruler. Any normal subordinate would have basically no objection to him as a monarch, and now the people also like the current emperor very much.
Not to mention that my old brother is already old and doesn't want to struggle anymore. Now his mentality is probably the same as Zheng Liu's. He just wants to retire and return to his hometown and live a stable life.
But after all, he is the only warrior who has reached the limit of his ability in Wu State. Even until his death, he must stand on the side of Wu State.
Even though he promised us to make things difficult for Xu Ming, in reality, he still gave Xu Ming a lot of ways out.
In the end, he even took out the golden medal of immunity from death, which shows that he actually admired Xu Ming very much.
Could it be that my old friend thinks Xu Ming will inherit his legacy?"
"Isn't it within your expectation that Daguozhu took out the original gold medal? But just as you expected, even if Daguozhu took out the death-free gold medal, Xu Ming was still stubborn.
To be honest, even I can’t stand it anymore.
At that time, I felt that our plan was going to fail.
After all, if it were me, I would definitely agree to Daguozhu and release his son."
Hibiscus smiled, seemingly taking some pleasure in someone else's misfortune.
The man shook his head. “It’s not that my calculations were accurate, but I didn’t underestimate this top scholar. I even thought I might have overestimated him. But now it seems that our top scholar has been making the right decisions from the beginning to the end.”
"I don't understand." Mu Jin asked in confusion, "That top scholar was so stubborn that he did such a thing and ended up in a dead end. Why do you still say that he made the most correct decision?"
“Hehehe”
The man smiled.
"You, if you open your eyes a little, you will understand what is going on.
For this top pick, not confronting Mo Peinan head-on is indeed the best option, but it is only for him.
This is not the case for the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Think carefully from the perspective of the Imperial Guards, what do you think this newly established organization needs most right now?"
“.”
Mu Jin lowered her head, looking thoughtful.
"I seem to understand your meaning, sir."
After a long time, Mu Jin nodded.
"From Xu Ming's perspective, it would be best for Xu Ming not to clash with him. Da Guozhu has already shown weakness to such an extent that he has even taken out the golden medal of immunity from death. Even if Xu Ming lets him go, no one will say anything to him.
But it’s different from the perspective of the Jinyi Mansion.
Institutions like the Jinyifu inherently possess supreme power.
However, this right cannot be used just like that; it needs to be fulfilled, and fulfilling it requires the majesty of the Jinyiwei in everyone's heart.
If the Jinyi Mansion wants to use this opportunity to completely establish its authority, it cannot give in. At least it must give in to the point where it has no other choice but to leave no room for anyone to find fault with it.
Even the person in the palace is watching this matter now, wanting to know to what extent Xu Ming can use the institution he founded.
So the reason why the number one scholar was so stubborn was not only to show it to the common people and the Jinyiwei, but also to show it to the emperor in the palace. "
"That's right."
The man's mouth curled up.
"This case is the first case of the Jinyi Palace. Not only the common people are watching, but also the civil and military officials, and the 8,000 Jinyi Guards of the Jinyi Palace are watching.
Xu Ming's performance will be the performance of the eight thousand Jinyiwei for the next twenty years.
Whether Jinyi Mansion can truly become a sharp blade depends on today."
…
In the lobby of Jinyi Mansion.
When Xu Ming finished speaking, the entire lobby fell into silence.
Tang Ningzhi stood up and seemed to want to say something, but Wu Yanhan held her hand.
Tang Ningzhi looked at Wu Yanhan, her eyes seemed to say: "Xu Ming is just trying to show off and seek death. Do you want to watch Xu Ming seek death?"
Tang Ningzhi really didn't understand.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Logically speaking, the princess of Wu State should like Xu Ming very much, but now, she said nothing and watched Xu Ming go towards the worst outcome.
Wu Yanhan understood what Tang Ningzhi meant, and in the end Wu Yanhan just gave Tang Ningzhi a firm look in return.
“.”
Tang Ningzhi pursed her thin lips, and in her mind she once again recalled what Wu Yanhan had said to her before: "No matter what he does, I will only stand on his side."
Tang Ningzhi took a deep breath and sat on the chair.
Tang Ningzhi stared at Xu Ming and Mo Peinan.
After calming down a little, Tang Ningzhi felt that her situation might not be as serious as she had imagined.
Anyway.
Xu Ming was the top scholar in Wu State, and even the hope of Wu State's literary world.
Even this great pillar of the country did not dare to kill Xu Ming easily.
But the question is, what if? Even if the Great Pillar of the State beat Xu Ming to death, what can the Emperor Wu say?
What can anyone else say?
In fact, this great pillar of the country has already given Xu Ming enough face.
But Xu Ming did not back down at all, and even seemed a bit stubborn.
Even if something happened to Xu Ming in the end, Da Guozhu would definitely not be held responsible.
At most, the great pillar of the country will only be scolded by the people.
But the problem is, what can the common people do? This is the strongest person in Wu State.
The people standing at the door were all worried about Xu Ming.
Especially the girls at the door, they were really worried that something might happen to the top scholar.
If something happened to Xu Ming, they didn't know what to do. They would rather their fiancés get into trouble than the No. 1 scholar. After all, if their fiancés were gone, they could always find another one. But this No. 1 scholar was the white moonlight in their hearts. If he was gone, he was really gone.
"Very good!" Daguozhu nodded. "I have to admit, Xu Ming, you are indeed a very principled person. Although I haven't had much contact with you, I also understand why Xiao Mochi praised you so highly."
Xu Ming bowed and said, "Thank you for your compliment, Daguozhu."
Mo Peinan looked at Xu Ming calmly: "Since you have already made up your mind, I won't say anything more. But Xu Ming, you must remember that I will never hold back on you! Life and death are your own responsibility!"
Xu Ming smiled and nodded: "Of course."
"Where are you going to take my three punches? Not here, right? I'm afraid I'll collapse your lobby." Mo Peinan glanced around.
"We have a martial arts training ground in Jinyi Mansion. We can practice there," said Xu Ming.
"Okay, then let's go to your martial arts training ground!" Mo Peinan didn't care.
On the contrary.
Mo Peinan was actually quite looking forward to it. Since Xu Ming practiced both swordsmanship and martial arts, he wanted to see how capable he was and whether his martial arts had been completely abandoned.
"Daguozhu, please."
Xu Ming made a "please" gesture. Daguozhu took one last look at Xu Ming and walked out of Datang.
Naturally, others followed suit.
In the martial arts training ground of Jinyi Mansion, Xu Ming and Da Guozhu stood opposite each other.
Outside the martial arts training ground, there was already a circle of people, including ordinary people and Jinyiwei.
Everyone was watching the field nervously.
Tang Ningzhi clenched her fists tightly.
If something really happened to Xu Ming, it would be very bad.
But now, Tang Ningzhi had no way to stop this from happening.
Tang Ningzhi glanced at Wu Yanhan beside her.
Wu Yanhan's eyes were just fixed on the stage, and his gaze never moved away from the stage from beginning to end.
"Your Majesty, this is bad."
In the palace, Wei Xun rolled and crawled to the front of Emperor Wu.
"Tell me, what happened again?"
Emperor Wu rubbed his eyes, his tone very helpless.
Emperor Wu was already feeling a headache at this time.
"Your Majesty, Daguozhu took out the golden medal of immunity from death in order to save his son." Wei Xun said hurriedly.
"And then?" Emperor Wu asked in confusion, "If we take out the death-free gold medal, shouldn't this matter be over?"
"That's what it was, but Your Majesty, the top scholar...he doesn't recognize the gold medal."
The more he spoke, the more cold sweat broke out on Wei Xun's head.
"Right now, Zhuangyuanlang and Daguozhu are already in the martial arts training ground. Zhuangyuanlang is going to take Daguozhu's three punches."
[I found that there is a BUG in the author's backend recently. There were clearly two sentences at the end of the previous chapter, but it was cut off directly. If the readers hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have noticed it.
Looks like I'll have to check twice more next time.
Then there is a modification in the above text, that is, Da Guozhu's "attack at a higher level" is actually "two levels higher".
Because this book has also been updated on other channels, but other channels will not display the "author's words", so some people can only write in the main text of the book.
However, based on the reactions of the masters, I will try to say less of these at the end in the future. 】
