Chapter 1946: outsider
Chapter 1946: On the outside
Chapter 1944: On the outside
Arthur and Zhu Xi fought together again, and in the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged dozens of moves.
Even facing the Grand Master, Arthur did not fall behind at all, but Qiao Feng on the side shouted: "Quick, help General Arthur and Princess."
Among everyone present, only Qiao Feng could see that Arthur's fighting state could not last long.
Once Arthur exits from this state, if no one is around to help him, he will probably die in the hands of the Grand Master soon. By then, no one will really be able to compete with the Grand Master.
With this thought, Guo Jing, Hong Qi, Hua Wuque and other heroes rushed out following Qiao Feng's footsteps and joined the ranks of besieging the Grand Master.
Among the heroes, apart from Qiao Feng, who is a late-stage Grandmaster, only Hong Qi, Guo Jing, Hua Wuque, and Lu Xiaofeng are Grandmaster masters.
Their strength is definitely necessary to face the Grand Master, but with Liu Mu and Arthur attracting most of the firepower, they can still cause some trouble for the Grand Master.
After Zhu Xi and Arthur exchanged a few more moves, it was obvious that Arthur's strength had become weaker. He wanted to pursue the victory and kill Arthur in one fell swoop, but he didn't want Qiao Feng and others to suddenly come over and hinder him.
Originally, Zhu Xi had the opportunity to directly hit Arthur hard, but he missed the opportunity due to the intervention of Qiao Feng and others. The battle fell into a stalemate for a while, but Zhu Xi was still the dominant side.
Yang Ping couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw Liu Mu and a group of other experts besieging Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi, but they were still at a disadvantage.
“Right now, we must attack the Prince of Qin’s palace and capture the Qin thief’s family alive.” Yang Ping raised his arms and shouted.
Zhang Miao immediately took the order, commanded the rebels behind him, bypassed the two fighting circles, and prepared to directly attack the Qin Palace.
Xue Jinlian, Yue Yinping and other female generals who retreated into the mansion couldn't help but panic after seeing this scene.
“Don’t panic.”
At this moment, Bai Suzhen stood up and said loudly: "An hour has passed since the rebel attack on the palace. It is impossible for the city defense army to detect such a big movement. As long as we hold on, reinforcements will surely arrive. "
Under Bai Suzhen's comfort, everyone calmed down, and under Bai Suzhen's immediate command, they built a defense line outside the house to prevent the rebels from attacking the inner house.
The palace of the Prince of Qin, the inner residence.
The fight was in full swing outside, but inside it was peaceful.
Jia Xu was still drinking tea leisurely and seemed not to care at all about the crisis outside.
“My lord, the princess, General Arthur, and a group of heroes who spontaneously supported us have already fought against the two great masters Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi, but I’m afraid they won’t be able to hold on for long, and defeat is only a matter of time.”
Dugu Qiubai looked at Jia Xu and asked, "Sir, why don't we go out?"
Jia Xu put down the teacup and asked, "Only how many great masters did the Imperial Party send out?"
“There are only two statues at present, the Confucianists Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi.”
A flash of understanding flashed in Jia Xu's eyes, and he sneered: "The last secrets of the big man turned out to be these two old guys. No wonder Confucius came to Luoyang in person."
“But sir, what does this have to do with Confucius?”
"Do you think that Confucius came to Luoyang in person to express his goodwill, it was just superficial? He wanted to borrow a sword to kill people, and borrowed my sword to eliminate dissidents for his Confucian school." Jia Xu sneered.
A flash of horror flashed in Dugu Qiubei's eyes, and he said in disbelief: "Confucius is so ruthless? He even wants to eliminate the great masters of Confucianism?
Confucianism is second only to Taoism among hundreds of schools of thought. If Confucius’ plan really succeeds, wouldn’t Confucianism’s strength be greatly reduced? What benefit does this have for Confucius, the leader of Confucianism? "
Jia Xu shook his head: "Confucianism is different from other sects. The internal struggles in other sects are all about interests, but Confucianism is about doctrines.
Confucius was a man of great wisdom. He knew that after hundreds of years of development, Confucian teachings had long been distorted. He wanted to get Confucianism back on track, but the conservative forces of Confucianism were deeply rooted.
If these stubborn Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi are not eliminated, even Confucius, the leader, will not be able to change Confucianism. It is not difficult to defeat the great master, but it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to kill him, not to mention that Confucius cannot do it himself, otherwise his position as leader will not be guaranteed.
It is precisely because of this that Confucius not only asked Kong Xuan to come to Luoyang, but also came in person to show his goodwill.
Confucius showed the greatest sincerity he could and used the Qin army's hands to help him get rid of Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi, two major troubles for the situation. "
“So, we were taken advantage of by Confucius?”
“It can’t be said to be utilization, it should be mutual utilization.
Dong and Zhu are not only Confucius’ mortal enemies, they are also our mortal enemies.
They are all stupid and loyal men, and there is no possibility of coexistence with us. It is better to take this opportunity to get rid of these two big troubles. "Jia Xu said calmly.
“What should I do now, sir?”
After hearing Dugu Qiubai's words, Jia Xu pondered for a moment and then said: "Based on the current information, the imperial party has at least three great masters at its disposal in Luoyang City, but they only sent two. This should be a disagreement between Li Tang and the imperial party.
Our young Majesty wanted to preserve his strength and wanted to withdraw Li Tangfang's Grand Master, but Li Tangfang's Grand Master was unwilling to help the imperial party, so His Majesty could only send out Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi. "
At this point, a flash of light flashed in Jia Xu's eyes: "Since the enemy's great masters have not acted together, we may be able to use this opportunity to defeat them one by one.
Be sure not to push them into a hurry. If their internal strength is burned, the situation may be difficult to end.
We can first send a few half-step grand masters to assist the princess. At the same time, it will also consume the energy of Dong and Zhu. All our grand masters will recharge their batteries. Once they burn up their internal energy, we will attack together to suppress them, and strive to use the minimum amount of energy to suppress them. Get rid of these two serious problems at the most cost. "
Speaking of this, Jia Xu seemed to have remembered something, and said again: "Let Qijian come back from White Horse Temple. There is no need to keep an eye on Xuanzang. He has no problem."
“I understand.” Dugu Qiubai said with his fists in hand.
Chen Xuanzang was Li Shimin's sworn brother. Although he had vowed not to leave the White Horse Temple, Jia Xu was not the kind of person who would place his hopes on the character of others.
Jia Xu had to guard against even Kong Xuan. Naturally, it was impossible for him to be completely unguarded against a master like Xuanzang.
Although Xuanzang's Qi Gate was broken and his skills were abolished, after all, his Dantian is still there, and the martial arts realm of the great master is still there, so he can naturally practice it again.
So many years have passed. Although Chen Xuanzang has not yet returned to the peak of his cultivation, he has reached the level of a great master and is now a decisive force in Luoyang City.
Inside the White Horse Temple.
Chen Xuanzang knocked on the wooden fish and smiled at the Seven Swordsman who was monitoring him: "Brother, you don't actually need to monitor the poor monk. The poor monk said he would not leave the temple, so he will definitely not leave the temple.
Now is the time when Luoyang needs manpower. Mr. Jia asked you seven masters to monitor the outsider, the poor monk. Isn't this because you are full? "
The corner of Ximen Chuixue's mouth twitched slightly, but he immediately returned to his coldness and said coldly: "Master, please forgive me for the accusation."
“Alas, you swordsmen are so rigid and flexible in their arrangements. You must understand that moving a tree dies and people move it alive…”
Chen Xuanzang kept talking, and became more and more energetic as he talked, and every word he said was like a magic sound in Qijian's ears.
