If it could be said that the imperial court of the Great Jin designated Wang She as a thief, it was to appease Northern Yuan. However, the reaction of the Mingyi School made Junior Leopard feel that the people of the Mingyi School were all f * cking bastards.
After the imperial court designated Wang She as a bandit, the Mingyi School immediately announced to the whole Jianghu that Wang She was extremely vicious. He had killed the prince of Northern Yuan and provoked a border dispute, which seriously affected the friendly relationship between the two countries and brought a military disaster to the whole Great Jin. His crimes were unforgivable and could not be tolerated by the decent martial arts world. The Mingyi School was really ashamed to be associated with such a person. At the same time, in order to maintain the friendly relationship between the two countries and avoid continuous military disasters, the Mingyi School would form a crusade team composed of righteous people in the martial arts world of Great Jin to deal with Wang She.
Of course, everyone understood that this so-called crusade team could not fight against a Level Nine expert like Wang She face to face. After all, even in the Great Jin, those who were qualified to fight against Wang She could be counted on one hand. And these guys could not join the Mingyi School's team either. The Mingyi School did this to show its position and at the same time pushed the Tian Long Taoism into a passive situation.
Because under such circumstances, the Tian Long Taoism could not openly oppose the Mingyi School and speak for a person who had been designated as a criminal, even if he was a Level Nine expert.
The crusade team formed by the Mingyi School could not compete with Wang She face to face, but it could play a supporting role. If Wang She was chased by the three Grandmasters of Northern Yuan and entered the territory of the Great Jin, then this team would play a very important role. Even if Wang She was seriously injured by the three Grandmasters, he might really be defeated by them. Of course, this was only an extremely ideal situation.
The Mingyi School was one of the most influential schools in the martial arts world of the Great Jin. Its influence was no less than that of the Tian Long Taoism. This time, in addition to appealing in the name of justice, the Mingyi School also offered huge rewards, including martial arts manuals, medicinal herbs, and everything else. These things were too attractive to the people in the martial arts world. Once it was announced, people in Jianghu swarmed to it. In a very short time, a network covering the whole Jianghu was formed.
The most terrible thing was that this network was not only huge but also secretive. The Mingyi School did not publish the list of Jianghu people who joined this team. Therefore, these people did not worry about the suppression and revenge of the Tian Long Taoism.
Therefore, even Junior Leopard had to admit that the Mingyi School's move was really beautiful. They used this justifiable reason to suppress Tian Long Taoism and Wang She. But on the other hand, Junior Leopard despised the Mingyi School's way of doing things.
In his previous life, he was a nationalistic youth. What he disliked most was the method of pretending to be friendly to the outside world and pressuring the inside world, even if they used the banner of the imperial court to make the Tian Long Taoism suffer in silence.
After this incident, Junior Leopard completely saw the Mingyi School's style of doing things. They were very similar to the ancient Confucian school in China. But they were not the real Confucian school, but the Confucian school that was castrated by Emperor Wu of Han. They were very similar, even exactly the same. This was what Junior Leopard disliked the most. Moreover, the relationship between Wang She and Junior Leopard was not ordinary, so naturally, he was in a bad mood.
However, it was not that there was no news that made Junior Leopard feel good.
When the tone of the imperial court had been set, the world was in a state of turmoil, and the Tian Long Taoism was silent, Great Jin's Yunzhou Governor-General Ma Tianchang suddenly submitted a memorial. The memorial said that in recent days, the Seven Troops of the Southern Yard of Northern Yuan had gathered and were waiting for an opportunity to go south. Cavalry scouts had appeared at every pass in Yunzhou. In response to this situation, the Yunzhou Army had already made the decision to go home and take the initiative to attack. Not only did they completely annihilate the cavalry scouts of Northern Yuan at the Yuyang line, but they also penetrated deep into the prairie and destroyed four tribes of the Southern Yard.
This was the report. After finishing the report, Ma Tianchang began to comment on Wang She's behavior. Not only did he not follow the tone set by the imperial court, but he also praised Wang She's behavior, calling him the first righteous man since ancient times. He requested the imperial court to cancel Wang She's wanted order, saying that he had only killed a few Northern Yuan bastards, and it was no big deal. If the imperial court wanted Wang She because of this, it would be too cowardly. It would boost the morale of others and diminish their own prestige. As for the army of Northern Yuan, there was no need to worry. No matter how many people came, he would destroy them outside of Yunzhou. Northern Yuan would never step half a step into Yunzhou.
This was the content of the memorial. In addition to this fierce memorial, Ma Tianchang also publicly announced that no matter who the people of Northern Yuan were, including the three Grandmasters of Northern Yuan, as long as they dared to take one step into Yunzhou, he, Ma Tianchang, was responsible for defending his territory. He would certainly expel them from Yunzhou in the most powerful way. At the same time, he would lead the army to the north and fight with the Northern Yuan Iron Cavalry. This was the first reason. The second reason was that he publicly scolded the Mingyi School for being shameless. He said that he was blind to agree to his daughter's marriage with Lu Shaoyou. Fortunately, the marriage was not successful. Otherwise, he would be driven to death by this group of cowards. In order to express his gratitude to Wang She and Nian Wushuang for saving his daughter from the fire pit, he would provide Wang She with the greatest help. As long as he entered Yunzhou, he would try his best to ensure Wang She's safety. Thirdly, in view of the Mingyi School's behavior, from now on, Yunzhou would not welcome the influence of the Mingyi School in Yunzhou. Now, all the industries and influences of the Mingyi School in Yunzhou should get the hell out of here. If they were not cleaned up within half a month, he would use force to expel them. Not a piece of land, a tile, or even a person would be left to the Mingyi School. At the same time, he would announce that all those who joined the crusade team formed by the Mingyi School were scum and a disgrace to the Great Jin. In Yunzhou, he would catch and kill every one of them!
This move caused an uproar in the world!
This was an open confrontation with the imperial court!
In the hundreds of years since the founding of the Great Jin, it was the first time that a governor dared to do this. He dared to openly question the imperial court's decision, go against the imperial court, and disregard the imperial court's law and discipline!
This kind of thing was really too bad.
The most important thing was that this happened to the Yunzhou Governor, Ma Tianchang!
As early as a few years ago, there was an Imperial Messenger who had written to impeach Ma Tianchang for acting arbitrarily, despising the imperial court, building Yunzhou into his own independent kingdom, harboring evil intentions, and should be punished immediately. That case was suppressed by the current Emperor. But now, with such a thing happening, the impeachment of him suddenly flooded the inner court like snowflakes. Without exception, all of them requested the imperial court to punish Ma Tianchang for the crime of great disrespect.
In their view, the reason why the imperial court did not punish Ma Tianchang in the past was that Ma Tianchang did not openly go against the imperial court like now. Secondly, the situation in Yunzhou was tense, and it really needed a person like him to hold the line there.
But now, what Ma Tianchang did was to put him in such an important position in Yunzhou. How could people feel at ease?
He even commanded the army to go north and fight to the death with the Northern Yuan Iron Cavalry. Did Ma Tianchang really think that the army belonged to him? Was his surname Ma?
This army belonged to the imperial court, the imperial court's army. Even if he was the Yunzhou Governor, without the imperial court's Tiger Tally, the largest number of troops he could mobilize was only 5,000!
Could it be that his influence in Yunzhou had expanded to the point that he didn't need the Tiger Tally to mobilize all the troops?
If that was the case, then he deserved to die even more.
Everyone thought that the imperial court would respond to such a matter in the shortest time possible. If it was light, Ma Tianchang's behavior would be severely warned. If it was heavy, Ma Tianchang would be stripped of his power as the Yunzhou Governor!
Unexpectedly, after the impeachment memorial entered the inner court and was placed on the Emperor's table, it was like a stone sinking into the ocean. There was no more response. There were no instructions or reactions. It was as if nothing had happened.
Just when everyone was getting impatient, a decree was issued from the inner court. Yunzhou Governor Ma Tianchang had been conscientious for many years and had made meritorious contributions in defending the land. In order to reward his loyalty, the imperial court had promoted him to the position of Minister of War and Yunzhou Governor. All affairs in Yunzhou could be decided by himself, and there was no need to report to the imperial court in advance.
This time, the shock it caused was even greater!
For a moment, everyone was confused. They didn't understand why the imperial court would give such an instruction!
But soon, another piece of news came out. It was said that the source of this news came from the inner court. It was said that His Majesty was very dissatisfied with Northern Yuan sending an envoy to question him. Although for the sake of the overall situation, he expressed his attitude according to Northern Yuan's wishes, it was only an attitude. Apart from this attitude, did you see any other actions of the imperial court?
On the other hand, the Mingyi School was jumping up and down, causing the Emperor to be very dissatisfied. Although Ma Tianchang's memorial and the news he released were clearly against the imperial court, his behavior was to the Emperor's liking. Moreover, he was the Emperor's trusted subordinate. Therefore, the Emperor took this opportunity to express his attitude to the whole world. Even the memorial and the news Ma Tianchang released were likely to be personally instructed by the Emperor.
This news spread throughout the world at the fastest speed. As for whether the source was really the inner court, it was already impossible to verify.
However, the imperial court's reaction also showed one thing to the world. Therefore, the wind direction changed overnight!
Some people who had initially scolded Wang She for stirring up trouble began to call Wang She a righteous man. The voices of those who accused Ma Tianchang of not putting the imperial court in his eyes also became lower. More people were quietly discussing the possible direction of the whole thing and its impact on the future.
The Mingyi School also no longer announced with great fanfare that they would deal with Wang She, but they were still playing small tricks in private!
Things gradually developed towards a calm trend, just like the calm before the storm. This was the most terrible calm!
… …
… …
It was a moonlit night!
The huge round moon hung in the air, emitting bright white light. The moonlight was like water, sprinkling between heaven and earth, shrouding the whole world in a magnificent jade-like color.
In the middle of the night, River Heart Island did not seem to be very quiet. The newly built goods yard was still crowded with people. The harbor was brightly lit. Ships of various shapes and sizes were docked at the harbor. Piles of goods were unloaded from the ships and moved to the newly built goods yard on the backs of coolies. On the road from the harbor to the goods yard, there were special people maintaining order. These people were all the soldiers of the Navy of Jiang City. They were there every night without interruption. Although it was a little hard, the allowance for maintaining order here for one night was equivalent to half a month's salary. Therefore, no one dared to complain about the money.
Of course, during this period, there were still some unpleasant things, especially Zhu Ba's subordinates. They were all bandits, extorting and extorting. After Junior Leopard got the news, he first called Zhu Ba over and scolded him in front of the soldiers of the Navy Camp. Then he called out the soldiers who extorted the merchants. He did not beat or scold them, but just told Zhu Ba not to let them do such work in the future. Under Junior Leopard's anger, Zhu Ba did not dare to do anything, so he just nodded and agreed.
After going back, he punished these guys who made him lose face and completely banished them into the cold palace. From then on, these guys could no longer take hot jobs. When the soldiers of the Navy Camp saw what happened to these guys, they immediately cleaned up their hands and feet. Seeing that their days were getting better and better, if they were to lose the favor of the commanders and the Excellencies for a little money like those unlucky guys, it would definitely be a loss that did not make up for the gains.
After a period of time, the discipline of the Navy Camp was improved. Accidentally, it became the team with the best military discipline in Jiang City. This was something that Junior Leopard and the commanders of the Navy Camp did not expect before.
"I really didn't expect that our Navy Camp would have such a day!" Standing on a protruding river rock, Wang Datong looked at the bustling port and goods yard and could not help sighing with emotion. "Our Excellency is really amazing!"
"Really? What did you say before His Excellency came? " Jiang Xiao stood beside him and looked in the direction of the port and goods yard with a satisfied gaze. "I remember that you seemed to say something like, 'Where did this bullshit boy come from? He doesn't want to be the boss of the Navy of Jiang City. Dream on!' That seems to be your original words, right?"
"Hehe!" Wang Datong laughed dryly and seemed a little embarrassed. "That's because His Excellency hasn't come yet. Don't tell me that you didn't have any thoughts about this appointment before His Excellency took office?"
"That's right, letting a teenager be the leader of our ruffian soldiers, our Admiral is really daring!" Jiang Xiao sighed softly. "However, I don't think His Excellency would have thought that our commander didn't want to leave after coming to Jiang City, right?"
Wang Datong was stunned at first and then immediately understood. The two of them laughed together. "That's right. Our Admiral would never have thought that things would develop like this!"
"Well, don't talk so much nonsense. Datong, have you done what His Excellency asked you to do?"
"I've told the people of the Multiple Chain Dock!" When it came to what Junior Leopard wanted Wang Datong to do, Wang Datong's expression changed slightly, revealing a trace of hesitation, "But, Your Excellency Jiang, is there any problem with what you're doing?"
"Even if there is a problem, it's not something we should think about!" Jiang Xiao glanced at him. "Datong, don't think so much. Now we're on the same boat as His Excellency. The only thing we can do is to help each other. Do you have any other ideas?"
"No, of course not!" Wang Datong shook his head quickly. "Of course I won't have other ideas. I'm just worried that His Excellency will cause trouble!"
"Trouble? What kind of trouble will there be? " A trace of coldness flashed across Jiang Xiao's face. "We're the Navy of Jiang City, not the water bandits of the Multiple Chain Dock. It's none of our business if their things are robbed. As for the goods yard, it's our property. Whoever we want to let use it or not, it's our own business. No one can say anything about it. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"
"Of course I understand. But if something really happens, I can't explain it clearly!"
"You're only responsible for the supply of provisions for our navy. Even if you can't explain it clearly, it's not your turn to say it, right?" Jiang Xiao squinted at him and said softly.
"Yes, yes!" Wang Datong felt a chill in his heart and didn't dare to say anything more.
Right at that moment, a commotion could be heard from the direction of the harbor in the distance.
"It's starting!" Seeing the situation of the port in the distance, Jiang Xiao revealed a faint smile on his face. He stared at the big ship docked in the port, "Is that the ship of the South Bay Warehouse?"
"Yes, the South Bay Warehouse belongs to a branch of the Mingyi School!" Wang Datong nodded and said, "From now on, all the merchant ships and goods related to the Mingyi School must deliberately make things difficult for them when they dock at the port of River Heart Island and use our goods yard!"
"This is His Excellency's order. We can only carry it out!" Jiang Xiao nodded and said, "I still have to remind you that we're now on the ship of His Excellency Commander!"
"I understand, I understand!"
… …
… …
"Swoosh, swoosh!" About 20 miles away from River Heart Island, a black figure flashed continuously on the surface of the river. Every time it flashed, the figure would disappear from its original place. Almost at the same time, it would appear more than 300 feet away from its original place. After several times, the figure was already more than 10 miles away from its original place.
"Phew, phew, phew, phew, phew …!" At a riverbank 18 miles away, Junior Leopard's figure suddenly appeared here. As soon as he appeared, he bent down and panted heavily. His face looked very pale. "My god, the Three Realms Division is really not so easy to master. It's okay for a short distance, but once it's a long distance, the Internal Qi consumed and the pressure that the body needs to bear are not so simple. With my current physical strength, I can only hold on for 18 miles at most!"
Junior Leopard lay on a boulder by the river, his eyes flashing. Looking at the drops of blood coming out of his arm, he thought to himself, "It seems that my skin and flesh can't bear it, but my bones can still hold on for a few more times!"
Yes, his bones could still hold on.
Since the last healing, he found that his bone strength had increased greatly and had reached a state far beyond the Bone-Forging Realm. He even doubted whether his current bone strength was at the level of an expert in the Tendon-Changing Realm. Unfortunately, his physical strength and bone strength were not in harmony. Without the support of flesh and blood, no matter how strong his bones were, it was useless. This was the reality, the cruel reality.
"If I risk being seriously injured, I can probably flash more than 30 miles in 10 seconds. I'm afraid that's my limit!" Junior Leopard thought to himself.
More than 30 miles in 10 seconds!
This was an extremely terrifying figure. Even if a Level Nine expert fully launched his mental cultivation method, it was still impossible to achieve this. This was also where Junior Leopard's greatest confidence came from. No matter what level of experts he faced, if he couldn't beat them, he could escape. Therefore, in a sense, he was fearless. After resting on the boulder for a while, Junior Leopard felt that he had recovered his strength.
He stood up straight and looked in the direction of River Heart Island from afar. Looking at the lights coming from afar, a faint smile appeared on his face. That was his territory. Although it was still small and seemed a little shabby, at least he had a small foundation. Of course, he also understood that this foundation was not stable. He was just a small Navy Commander. Although he was doing well on River Heart Island, the imperial court could transfer him to a completely strange place with only a transfer order. And he had no strength to resist at all. Under such circumstances, if he still wanted to control River Heart Island, he had only one choice. That was to give up his current identity and control River Heart Island as a water bandit like Li Sanbao. Such a choice was something he was not willing to make in any case.
Therefore, since he made some achievements on River Heart Island, he had been very careful. It was not until the news of Wang She killing the three princes of Northern Yuan and the following series of news came that things changed.
Junior Leopard didn't care about the imperial court's attitude. It was just words and no one would take them seriously. However, the Mingyi School's reaction and behavior made him feel extremely contemptuous and disdainful. It was this kind of contempt and disdain that made him more and more displeased with the Mingyi School. In the end, this Mingyi School even affected his practice. He always felt that he had to release this Mingyi School before he could practice with peace of mind. After weighing the two sides, he came up with a bad idea.
Make things difficult for him!
I won't directly challenge the influence of the Mingyi School like Yunzhou Governor Ma Tianchang did, nor will I obviously find trouble with the Mingyi School. But I can make things difficult for you. Anyway, the discipline of the Navy of Jiang City was not very good. Although the military discipline was much better after his rectification, these ruffian guys had become the Eighth Route Army overnight. Even if you told him that, he wouldn't believe it. Therefore, during the process of docking at the port, during the transportation of goods, or even when you encountered water bandits, it was possible for me to make things difficult for you with legitimate reasons, right? I can't make you die, but I can disgust you to death. As a civil servant in his previous life, Junior Leopard was very adept at playing this game.
