Chapter 385
385 My daughter, Li Jun
King Duan, Aisin Gioro zaiqin.
One could tell from the name that it was not one of their kind.
King Duan was the cousin of the current Emperor. Two years ago, the Empress Dowager launched a coup, wanting to abolish Guangxu and change Aixin jueluo PU Jun to Emperor. Later, due to pressure from many parties, she had to dispel it.
The fifteen-year-old boy, PU Jun, was King Duan’s son. He had almost become the “retired emperor.”
King Duan was one of the leaders of the diehards. During the period of the movement, he had secretly caused a lot of trouble for the Westerners and was a big cancer in the decadent system. In addition, he was a staunch supporter of war. On one hand, he encouraged the group of volunteers to cause trouble, while on the other hand, he wrote a letter to Cixi to fight to the death with the foreigners.
Later generations evaluated him as one of the main culprits of the uprising.
This person was very close to the group of volunteers and strongly advocated that the group’s spell to resist guns and cannons was very effective, belittling the advanced guns and cannons in the Qing Dynasty Armory. The Tiger God Battalion led by Zai Xun practiced the righteous fist technique and became the earliest soldiers and civilians in the capital to learn it. Later on, Zai Feng even set up an altar in the palace and worshipped it every day.
The plan for the unparalleled war spirit was planned by Zai Qiao and his henchmen. He had also obtained the support and help of countless capable people in the demon descendants ‘community.
At the table, after three rounds of wine, the thin-faced and moustached Zai Qiao said faintly, ” “Three days have passed. Has Lord li picked a good candidate?”
Of course not. Li Qiyun’s expression was ugly. He lowered his head.”I’m ashamed.”
Hearing this, Zai Xuan snorted coldly,”I’m loyal to the Emperor.” The Li family had received the emperor’s grace for generations, and their descendants were blessed by the Emperor. Lord Li’s reply was “ashamed”?”
Li Qiyun’s forehead was sweating, and he quickly raised his glass. “King Duan, the Li family has received the emperor’s grace. I’m filled with fear and trepidation. I’m willing to sacrifice my life for the Qing Dynasty, but, but ...”
“But what?”
unparalleled war spirit, creation divine technique. I really can’t do it.
“Lord li, the Empress Dowager has agreed to take out the black water spirit Pearl and is full of expectations. If we let her down ... The Dragon is furious, what should we do?”
Even a fool could hear the threat in his words.
Li Qiyun gritted his teeth and could only fight it out. “Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to give you a satisfactory answer in ten days.”
A satisfied smile appeared on Zai Feng’s face. His eyes were small, his face was sharp, and he had a moustache that made him look like a mouse, so his smile was very cunning.
“I have received Lord Li’s promise today, so this trip has not been in vain. “Sigh, the foreigners are tyrannical in the Qing Kingdom, dividing the land and dividing the territory. The Empress Dowager can’t sleep at night and can’t wait to skin them.” I’ll eat the Lord’s fortune and bear the Lord’s worries.”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
“By the way, has commander Li’s health improved?” Zai Qian turned to care about li rufeng.
“I’m fine.” Li rufeng nodded slightly.
His attitude was obviously not as subservient as his father’s. Firstly, he was highly skilled, so it was inevitable that he would be arrogant. Secondly, he was born in the Qing Dynasty, which had experienced the Opium War, the Taiping country, and the Yalu River Sea battle. The control of this decadent political power over the country was weakening day by day, and the respect of demon descendant Masters like him was not as strong as that of the previous generation.
I heard that after the plan failed, commander Li’s vitality was greatly damaged. I didn’t expect him to recover in just a few days. The strength of his Foundation is indeed worthy of his reputation. The one who spoke was a burly man wearing a headscarf.
One of the leaders of the group, Zhao Ying.
In the secret attempt that happened a few days ago, the plan for the unparalleled war spirit failed again. As one of the two core forces, li rufeng stopped the resonance with the Dragon Pearl in time and was lucky to survive.
The reason for failure was as follows:
First, li rufeng’s strength was not enough, and the resonance with the Dragon Pearl was intermittent, unable to integrate.
Second, the combat power of the solidified unparalleled war spirit was far less than expected, and there was only one black water spiritual Pearl, so he had to stop.
Therefore, the soul training plan was actually stopped halfway. The Espers and Espers involved in the plan could not see any hope in li rufeng, so they stopped early. The soul tampering plan was a bold attempt that had already been fired, and there was no turning back.
After spending so much manpower, material, and financial resources, it would be a huge loss if he only cultivated an ordinary Gokudo path.
Gokudo Masters were the peak of individual strength, but they were not enough to save the unstable Qing Dynasty.
He needed a pair of hands that could reverse the general trend to support the sky. He turned the tide and helped the building collapse.
Fortunately, that was the case. Otherwise, li rufeng might not have been able to come back alive.
He glanced at Zhao Ying and didn’t say anything. He didn’t hide his displeasure at all.
Just like the Shandong provincial governor Yuan Shikai, the military generals with real foresight would not like the Peace Alliance.
The word “Bandit” was enough to explain the group of volunteers. At most, they would add the word “patriotism.”
Due to the pressure from the foreign powers, Empress Dowager Cixi announced that the volunteer Association was a legal organization at the beginning of the year, and a large number of them began to move around in the suburbs of the capital. At the beginning of June, the members of the heavenly Peace group swarmed into the capital.
In fact, long before this, the group of volunteers had been secretly supported by the war-advocating faction led by Zai Feng and had been active in the capital.
Carrying bullets with their bodies, summoning God and cannon, the Kongtong group developed believers among the officials under the banner of deception and National righteousness. Countless officials firmly believed that the group could resist foreign enemies, and a large number of Qing soldiers joined the group.
The Imperial court had originally wanted to use the group of volunteers to fight against the foreigners, but they had not expected that the group of volunteers would be so big that they had already threatened the rule of the Qing government. That was why Cixi loved and hated the group of volunteers.
The group of peace was by no means a good organization, even though it was under the banner of “supporting the Qing Dynasty and destroying the ocean.”
While fighting against the foreigners and stirring up trouble, the group of volunteers also burned, killed, plundered, and bullied women, leaving a deep shadow in this tragic era.
In addition, the group of volunteers also killed ministers of the Imperial court. Just last month, Cixi flew into a rage at the meeting and almost disbanded the group of volunteers.
In the beginning, the group of volunteers had the intention to develop the Li residence into a believer.
Li Qiyun laughed and replied perfunctorily. Li rufeng replied directly, ” Pretending to be a ghost, get lost!
We’re all demon descendants, why are you acting like a big-tailed Wolf in front of me?
To drive people out of the Li residence.
“Since you’ve recovered, then this trip wasn’t in vain.” “I’ve admired commander Li’s reputation for a long time, so I’m willing to teach you,” Zhao Ying put down his cup and said in a deep voice.
Revenge?
Test?
Lower his horse’s might?
Li rufeng muttered to himself, pondering over the other party’s true intentions.
...
heavenly Zhao and commander li are both very powerful. I’m also very curious as to who is stronger. Zai Jin took a small sip and said in a leisurely tone,”In addition, this is also an estimation. “Since commander li has failed, the next candidate will naturally be stronger than him. However, I’m not the only one who’s not sure how strong commander li is. There are many others who don’t know. Only when this Prince has a clear plan in mind can I help Lord li find a suitable candidate. The soul cultivation plan is everyone’s hard work.”
Understood, all of the above, and possibly a warning.
They were warning the Li family not to do anything like carrying the load and running away.
“So you want to break me, the thickest pillar of the Li family? Anyway, I’m a failed product and have no value ...” “Alright,” li rufeng thought and raised his eyebrows.
He called for servants to carry the potted plants and cleared out a field that could barely cope with the battle. Li Qiyun, King Duan, and the latter’s guards stood in a Pavilion not far away to watch the battle.
“Commander li has just recovered from his serious injuries. Do you need me to give you a few moves?” Zhao Ying said calmly.
Li rufeng tied his braids around his neck and got into a fighting stance.”Come on.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the cobblestone path under Zhao Ying’s feet exploded. Almost at the same time, he disappeared from his original spot and rushed to li rufeng with a strong explosive force.
Li rufeng, who had originally wanted to meet the punch with his own, changed his mind halfway. He turned sideways, raised his elbow, and blocked the punch.
They didn’t fight directly, but this one attack created a strong wind that blew the surrounding vegetation.
Since it was a sparring session, there was naturally no need to use blades or Spears. In fact, it was fine, but King Duan suggested that they only use their fists and feet instead of blades or Spears to avoid hurting their relationship.
...
Zhao Ying had learned the plum fist, and his fists and legs were his Forte. Therefore, his dignity was biased towards Zhao Ying.
At first, he could barely maintain a 50 – 50 chance, but after the time it took for an incense stick to burn, li rufeng began to feel weak and unsustainable.
In the end, his stance was broken by Zhao Ying’s fist, which stopped between his eyebrows.
“Thanks for letting me win!” Zhao Ying said arrogantly.
As one of the leaders of the group of volunteers who rose up in the chaotic times, he did have the right to be proud.
King Duan laughed. as expected of a psychic. With heavenly Zhao’s help, the Qing Dynasty will not have to worry about the foreigners.
Li Qiyun shook his head and sighed silently. However, a smile appeared on his face as he agreed with King Duan, ” “Your Highness’s words are very true.”
King Duan looked at the dejected li rufeng and said, ” “Commander li, why don’t you take advantage of this moment and tell us everything? Everyone had witnessed heavenly Zhao’s divine skills. He had developed his followers and taught them his ultimate Arts, voluntarily abandoning his views of the clan for the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty. Commander Li, you can bring your subordinates to learn together.”
In other words, he wanted to develop the forward strike Battalion led by li rufeng into the followers of the group of Heavenly Peace.
Li rufeng immediately frowned and ignored his father’s Secret eye signal. In fact, he was rejecting it in his heart.
The group was like a tiger. Sooner or later, the Qing Dynasty would raise the Tiger to cause trouble. The current situation was actually very bad. Countless officials believed in the group and countless Qing soldiers joined them. This initially well-disciplined non-governmental organization had become a complete Bandit organization.
Such an act that shook the foundation of the Qing Dynasty was pushed forward by a Royal relative and his party. It was not for the nation or country, but for his own selfish reasons.
Cixi wanted to use the power of the group to fight against the foreigners, and King Duan zaixi wanted to use the power of the group to fight against the opposition and let his son sit on the throne.
In a legitimate dynasty, the proper Army could not defeat the foreigners, but the rulers placed their hopes on civil organizations. This doomed the tragedy of the Qing Dynasty and the tragedy of China.
King Duan squinted his eyes and put on a fake smile.”Commander Li, you’re not willing?”
Li rufeng was caught in a dilemma, his expression ugly.
Li Qiyun was equally unsightly. He hinted at his son with his eyes to compromise, but his son turned a blind eye. He was extremely anxious.
“What’s there to learn with such mediocre Kung Fu?” A crisp voice came from the corridor.
A group of powerful men looked towards the voice and saw a beautiful girl in a cheongsam and embroidered shoes, holding a beauty fan in her hand.
A fragrant wind blew, and he walked slowly.
This was a national beauty. Her lips were red without a dot, her eyebrows were green without a drawing, her facial features were exquisite, her small face was white and tender, her eyes were like autumn water, and the beauty mole at the corner of her right eye was even more irresistible.
Even King Duan, who had seen countless beauties, was still stunned by the young lady’s beauty.
“She is ...”
“Is this a place you can come to? Where are the rules that I’ve taught you?”
In fact, they never taught rules on normal days. In the environment where men were superior to women, the most important thing in the demon descendants community was still strength.
This kind of daughter who could punch her father’s brain out was really not easy to manage. Secondly, she was the only legitimate daughter, and she had been spoiled since young, so he let her be.
Li Qiyun pretended to be angry and scolded a few times, then he smiled bitterly and said, ” “My daughter is Li Yun. I don’t know the rules. Please excuse me.”
