Ming Dynasty: pacifying the rebellion and defending the border, dominating the world

Chapter 35 Zhu Wusi's Ambition, the Protagonist Who Came to His Doorstep
Until leaving Tiance Mansion.

Zhu Wusi's mind was still echoing with the speculations and conclusions that were enough to subvert the Ming Dynasty.

Although the foundation of the Ming Dynasty royal family was completely destroyed by the reign of Emperor Yingzong, some of it was still retained. With the accumulation of the Chenghua and Hongzhi dynasties, it was finally restored to some extent.

Although it is no longer at its peak, Zhu Wusi knows that the Ming Dynasty has not yet reached the point where it is strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

Otherwise he would have taken action long ago.

"Unfortunately, despite all the Emperor's calculations, he still made a mistake."

"With the help of Master Zhang, even if..." Zhu Wusi couldn't help but shook his head. No matter how powerful the conspiracy of Meng Yuan and Zhu Houzhao was, they probably couldn't have imagined that there was a Zhang Sanfeng standing next to Prince Su.

One is Zhu Jinzhen, who is comparable to three land immortals, and the other is Zhang Sanfeng, a martial arts legend.

Even if Zhu Houzhao put all the masters of the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols into action, in Zhu Wusi's opinion, they would ultimately fail and the possibility of success would be slim.

The trip to Tian Ce Mansion allowed Zhu Wusi to truly witness what an invincible army is.

"What exactly is Prince Su's secret?"

“So many Vajra Realm and Zhixuan Grandmasters cannot be cultivated overnight.”

"Ever since the bloody battle, Tiance Mansion has been replenishing its lost forces year after year. Logically, they should have become weaker. Why has their strength expanded to what it is today in just a few years?"

"Incredible!"

Zhu Wusi looked back at the majestic Tiance Mansion, his curiosity stronger than ever before. He knew that all this must be the work of Prince Su Zhu Jinzhen.

But how to do it is what he wants to know most.

"If I can learn the secrets of Prince Su's Mansion and master the method of strengthening the army, I can support the Ming Dynasty with just my own hands, and even lead the Ming Dynasty to sweep across the world, bring eternal peace to the four seas, and make the world submit!" A strong ambition grew in Zhu Wusi's heart.

The intelligence of Hulong Villa is considered the best in Ming Dynasty.

Apart from the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Qinglong Society, which is known to be omnipresent in the martial arts world, can be compared with them in this regard. It is difficult for any intelligence agency of any force in the world to compare with the Huolong Villa.

There is a saying that has been circulating in the court and in the martial arts world.

There are only things in this world that Tiedan Shenhou wants to know or does not want to know.

And there is nothing he cannot know.

But Zhu Wusi could not find out anything about Prince Su's Mansion.

"No matter what the cost, I must know how Prince Su did it!" Zhu Wusi took a deep look at Tiance Mansion, made up his mind secretly, and then strode out of Tiance Mansion.

……

After Zhu Wusi left.

Li Chengen also began to report some things about today's Tiance selection.

"Your Highness, there are several unusual people participating in today's selection."

"I am a little undecided and would like to ask Your Highness for your decision."

"Oh?"

Zhu Jinzhen looked at Li Chengen in front of him in surprise. What kind of identity could make him, the commander-in-chief of Tiance, feel embarrassed?

"One is Dugu Feng, the jewel in the crown of the Dugu Clan, one of the four great clans of the Great Sui Dynasty. She arrived at Jiayuguan yesterday and, for some reason, suddenly wanted to join the army and the Youlongqi." "Dugu Feng, she wants to join the Youlongqi?"

"Yes." Cao Xueyang took over and said, "After I learned about her background, I asked her carefully, but she firmly stated that she could be treated as an ordinary woman joining the army."

"Dugu Feng, the four major clans?" Zhu Jinzhen's eyes flashed. Although his layout has radiated to neighboring countries in recent years, it is ultimately very limited. The Song Dynasty is between the Sui Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and he is out of reach.

Dugu Feng's arrival may be a good opportunity.

But before that, the jewel in the crown of the Dugu clan, the proud little phoenix, still needs careful training.

"Take it. Since she has passed the selection, as long as she doesn't betray Tiance, we will treat her equally."

"Yes."

"What else?" Zhu Jinzhen looked at Li Chengen.

"There's another little fellow." Li Cheng'en seemed to find this a bit absurd. "He calls himself 'Dog Bastard'. He's not from Shaanxi. He was brought to Shaanxi by a man named Xie Yanke, seemingly heading to the borderlands. But Xie Yanke encountered a powerful enemy along the way and got separated from him. He ended up here."

"I heard that joining Tiance Mansion would provide a good career and livelihood, so I participated in the selection."

"The soldiers have hinted at him and all agree that if he isn't extremely cunning, then he has a pure heart and can be accepted."

"Bastard?" Zhu Jinzhen's mouth twitched. This name was so specific, especially with the name Xie Yanke in it. He knew who the bastard was without even having to think about it.

"Take it."

Don’t refuse the protagonist who comes to your door.

Shi Potian may not be a talented general, but he may become a brave general in the army. He can even accidentally practice mysterious things like the Taixuan Sutra. His talent and aptitude should not be underestimated.

If trained well, he can become a great master of astronomy.

Even the immortals on land are unknown.

"Yes."

Li Cheng'en heard the hidden meaning in his prince's words and, though somewhat surprised, nodded in agreement. He continued, "The other man was named Lin Pingzhi. He was originally the eldest son of the Fuwei Escort Agency in Fuzhou Prefecture. Due to a family tragedy, the Fuwei Escort Agency was wiped out overnight. He was then abducted by Mu Gaofeng, a Ming camel from the northern frontier, and brought to Jiayu Pass."

"Mu Gaofeng was responsible for a murder and had never been to Shaanxi before. Upon discovering him, the Cang Yun soldiers chopped him to pieces. After several investigations, they confirmed that Lin Pingzhi had no connection to Mu Gaofeng, and his words were correct."

"Oh? Since your family background is clean, why are you not allowed to join the Tiance Mansion?" Zhu Jinzhen looked over curiously.

Li Chengen sighed helplessly, "Your Highness, if Lin Pingzhi wanted to join the Tiance Mansion, I wouldn't have to worry about it. Although he participated in the selection, he actually wants to join the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry."

"He wants to join the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry?" Zhu Jinzhen's eyes flashed. Thinking of Li Chengen's previous report and Lin Pingzhi's life experience, he no longer found it strange.

The Great Snow Dragon Cavalry is composed of a group of people with miserable lives or people with deep blood feuds. The threshold for joining is neither high nor low. According to some internet idiots in Zhu Jinzhen's previous life, as long as his parents offer sacrifices to the heavens, he can basically join.

And they will definitely be reused and cultivated.

Just when Li Chengen thought that Zhu Jinzhen might agree to let the Great Snow Dragon Riders take Lin Pingzhi away.

But he heard Zhu Jinzhen's cold voice: "Interesting, is it a test or a conspiracy?"

The common people in Shaanxi, the Provincial Administration Commission and the Military Command Commission all knew that there was a Blood Dragon Cavalry under the command of the Prince Su's Mansion that even the King of Hell could not take away. However, such news should never be known by Lin Pingzhi, a young master of an escort agency who had lived in southern Fujian since childhood.

Moreover, if Mu Gaofeng kidnapped Lin Pingzhi, he must be after the Sword Manual of Exorcism.

What are you doing in Shaanxi?
