The six major sects' plan to encircle and annihilate the Devil Cult turned out to be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Who would still have the mood to talk about eliminating the evil and defending the Dao?
Only the Ming Dynasty's disciples were killed in this encirclement and annihilation. The six major sects also had casualties. It was impossible to turn an enemy into a friend just because they said they had an enemy. They just wanted to preserve their strength and go down the mountain together.
Zhang Wuji discussed with the leaders of the six major sects. They decided to take the initiative instead of being passive. They went to capture Zhao Min. Although Zhao Min escaped, she was also seriously injured. Therefore, Zhang Qingqing's plot was also ignored.
Later, Zhang Wuji returned to the Brightness Peak to help the Ming Dynasty's people heal.
In these several days, the Ming Dynasty's disciples were busy saving the dying and healing the wounded. After the big battle that they escaped from the edge of hell, they all understood that they shouldn't have killed each other in the past and invited foreign invaders. No one mentioned the old grievances. They quietly healed their wounds on the Brightness Peak.
The Ming Dynasty's people's internal and external injuries were relatively serious. Zhang Qingqing and Zhang Wuji's acupuncture and massage were really effective. Everyone was very grateful. In these several days, Zhang Wuji did his best to treat Wei Yixiao and Yang Xiao, but he only managed to expel the cold poison from their bodies.
Who would have thought that before they could recover from their injuries, the Beggar Clan, Ju Jing Bang, Hai Sha Bang, Shen Quan Pai, and other people from different sects had also attacked the Brightness Peak. In order to take refuge, Zhang Wuji accepted the position of Cult Leader of the Ming Cult. He took the Ming Dynasty's people to the secret passage. They waited until their wounds were healed, then they attacked again.
After everything was settled, Zhang Wuji planned to go to the sea with the Ming Dynasty's people to welcome the Golden Lion back. The reason why Zhang Qingqing didn't go was because she was pregnant at this time.
However, Zhang Wuji found that the Lion King was not on Bing Huo Island. On the other hand, Zhang Qingqing was the wife of the Sect Leader, had a young Sect Leader in her belly, and had gone through hardships with the people of the Ming Dynasty. He instructed the Cult members to search for Zhu'er, and every one of them did their best. Instead, he learned that Xie Xun was on Spirit Snake Island.
Zhang Qingqing asked the White-browed Eagle King to keep an eye on the Golden Flower while she brought Zhu 'er to the Spirit Snake Island to bring the Golden Lion back. The Eagle King was reluctant, but Zhang Qingqing pointed at her stomach and said softly, "Grandfather, if we wait for Wuji to return before we go to the Spirit Snake Island, I won't be able to hide my stomach anymore. We can't possibly not marry him and give birth to this child. How will this child's identity be revealed then? How am I supposed to explain this to my parents? "
The Eagle King could only ask the Five Wanderers, Leng Qian, to keep an eye on the Golden Flower while he accompanied Zhang Qingqing to fetch the Golden Lion. With the White-browed Eagle King as a witness and hearing that Zhang Qingqing wanted to invite him back to the Ming Dynasty to preside over her and Zhang Wuji's wedding, how could Xie Xun not agree?
However, Zhang Qingqing fetched Xie Xun back and went to fetch Zhang Fu and Mother Zhang out of the Bright Peak. She even prepared everything for the wedding, but Zhang Wuji still didn't return.
On this day, Zhang Qingqing was looking out to sea from the Bright Peak. Xiao Zhao brought over some meat porridge and advised, "Sister Qing Qing, eat something first. Your appetite hasn't been good these few days, so you haven't eaten much."
"Thank you, Xiao Zhao. Have you eaten?"
"Sister Qing Qing, don't worry about me. I'm fine. "
Zhang Qingqing felt that these words of concern were reasonable. Xiao Zhao was so touched that she didn't know what to do. She was clearly at the age where her parents should be happy, but when she was sent by the Golden Flower to the Ming Dynasty to be a spy, no one cared about this little girl. Now that Zhang Qingqing was pregnant, her motherly instincts erupted, and she couldn't help but care for her. She borrowed Xie Xun's Dragon Slaying Saber to cut off her bracelet and anklet, and she also subconsciously cared for her. Now, she reckoned that in her heart, she was more important than Zhang Wuji. She was really a little girl that people couldn't dislike even if they didn't want to.
Zhu'er was also very close to her. The two of them were taking turns to watch her eat, and they even wanted to make her happy. Sometimes, Zhang Qingqing would sigh at the impermanence of the world.
When Zhang Wuji's group returned, Zhang Qingqing's belly was already showing. As it turned out, they met the people of the Persian Ming Dynasty. The Persian Ming Dynasty wanted to use the Sacred Flame Insignia to become the ruler of the Ming Dynasty. How could Yang Xiao and Wei Yixiao agree? Zhang Wuji originally had no intention of fighting for power, but Yang Xiao caused a conflict. In order to protect the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Wuji had no choice but to resist. The Ming Dynasty's side had top-notch combat power, while the Persian Sect's side had more people and more power. Both sides were also on guard against each other. Zhang Wuji's group took back the Sacred Flame Insignia, tied up the twelve Precious Tree Kings, and forced them to swear never to return to the Central Plains. They were released back to Persia. Zhang Wuji's group loaded all the cannons of the Persian Sect onto a boat and brought them back together.
Hearing that the Persian Sect had been beaten by Zhang Wuji until they promised never to return to the Central Plains, and that the Golden Flower had returned to Lingshe Island by herself, Xie Xun did not make things difficult for her on account of their sworn brotherhood. However, she did not bring Xiao Zhao, because she had seen with cold eyes that Zhang Qingqing was indeed sincerely good to Xiao Zhao. Xiao Zhao's smile never stopped.
When Zhang Wuji returned, Zhang Qingqing immediately changed the style of her wedding dress. In order to avoid any more twists and turns, she decided to get married first before anything else.
All the items had been prepared long ago. Apart from the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Qingqing only sent an invitation to Wudang. Zhang Sanfeng personally wrote the four words "Beautiful Son and Beautiful Wife" on a scroll and a hand-copied "Tai Chi Sutra". He ordered Song Yuanqiao, Yu LianZhou, and Yin Liting, the three great disciples, to come and congratulate them.
The wedding was very lively, but when Zhang Wuji and Zhang Qingqing were in the bridal chamber, something happened outside. It turned out that Yin Liting had seen Yang Buhui, who looked exactly like Ji Xiaofu. Suddenly, he learned that Ji Xiaofu had died at the hands of Miejue Shitai. He could not bear it and quickly ran away. Song YuanQiao and Yu LianZhou were worried and also chased after him.
What could Zhang Qingqing think? She could only think that in any case, this happened after the ceremony.
A few months later, Zhang Qingqing gave birth to a son. During the confinement period, Zhang Wuji and Zhang Qingqing chatted about their daily lives. "Sister Qing, in my heart, I only wanted to live peacefully with you in the valley. Now that I have become the leader of the Ming Dynasty, it is really difficult for me to bear this heavy responsibility. If one day, I can find a great talent, I would like to live in seclusion with you."
"I know that you are indifferent to fame and fortune, but you know that wherever there are people, there is Jianghu. In this world, is there any place that does not need to interact with people? Father and Mother lived in seclusion on Bing Huo Island, but didn't they also return to the Central Plains because of you? "
Zhang Qingqing drank a mouthful of water and continued, "You see, after Father and Mother came back, for the sake of the Tulong Saber, they came to our door and forced Father and Mother to their deaths. Now, you are the Cult Leader of the Ming Cult, and Yifu is still at the Brightness Peak; who would dare to come and take the Tulong Saber by force? If you don't want all of this, Foster Father, what will you use to protect yourself? If we go into seclusion, our son will eventually come out to marry a wife. At that time, if someone wants our Nine Yang Manual and forces him or deceives him, what will we do? "
Zhang Wuji said helplessly, "I know all of this. I just think that it would be good if there were no more fighting and killing in this world."
Zhang Qingqing looked deeply at Zhang Wuji. "It's not that there isn't. Do you want to see it? It's not that there is no fighting and killing at all, it's just that life is precious there, not like grass. "
Seeing Zhang Wuji nodding his head in affirmation, Zhang Qingqing lowered her head to look at the son in her bosom. She explained the modern society's legal system to Zhang Wuji, telling him that if he wanted a legal system, he had to establish a country.
This fact was too big. Zhang Wuji thought about it for ten whole days. During these ten days, he asked Zhang Qingqing all kinds of questions, such as how to rule by law and how to balance power. Zhang Qingqing explained to him one by one. Although she felt that the Daoist priest was a bit of a hindrance, that society was indeed so beautiful that it made people want to disregard everything to go and see it.
Zhang Wuji changed his previously indifferent attitude and actively fought against the Yuan together with the people of the Ming Dynasty. During this time, when Zhu Yuanzhang rebelled, Zhang Wuji did not turn cold either.
There were also martial artists from all over the world who were chivalrous enough to join the Ming Dynasty and fight against the Yuan together. The people who were oppressed by the Yuan Dynasty responded to Zhang Qingqing's order that the people of the Ming Dynasty were not to harm the common people and not to encroach on their finances. On the contrary, they tried their best to help them, so they also joined in. They contributed manpower and strength, sending their sons and daughters to the Ming Dynasty. In a short time, the Ming Dynasty became dozens of times stronger.
When they were chased out of the dynasty, Zhang Wuji naturally ascended the throne and became the emperor. The title of the dynasty was Ming. In the same year, Zhang Qingqing gave birth to another daughter.
At that time, Zhang Qingqing's Jiu Yang Shen Gong had also achieved great success. Seeing Zhang Wuji's annoyed expression, she took the initiative to take over the work of correcting the memorials. Zhang Wuji, on the other hand, was very happy to teach his son and daughter martial arts, study the Sheng Huo Ling's cultivation technique, and also treat Zhu 'er's face.
The Ming Dynasty was originally a martial arts sect, and there were both men and women in the sect. Once they were in power, they naturally could not say that the sisters who had gone through life and death with them could not become officials. At the start of the Ming Dynasty, the ratio of female officials to male officials was about 1: 1.
Zhang Qingqing carefully taught Zhu'er, Xiao Zhao, and Yang Buhui. Now, they were like the sun rising out of the sea, shining brightly.
Zhou Zhiruo also led Emei in the fight against the Yuan Dynasty. Miejue originally did not want to be enemies with the Ming Dynasty, but Zhou Zhiruo's father was killed by the Tatars. If there was no other way, she might not have risked her life to kill all the Mongols. However, if she could take revenge, why would she just watch from the side? Since it was for the greater good, Miejue naturally could not stop her.
Zhou Zhiruo was not the only one in Emei's group who hated the Tatars. During the fight against the Yuan Dynasty, she was always at the front and never at the back. Now, her reputation among the people was more than ten times greater than before. The Emei Sect could be considered not to have fallen, but to have flourished.
Although Miejue did not say anything, when Emei was trapped, she revealed the secret of Yitian Sword and Tulong Saber. Zhang Wuji obtained Vumu's will, which reduced the Ming Dynasty's casualties. Zhou Zhiruo obtained the Nine Yin Manual and used it as the Emei Sect's martial arts manual.
After Miejue died of old age, Zhang Qingqing discussed with the current leader of the Emei Sect to exchange the Nine Yin Manual for the Nine Yang Manual. Zhou Zhiruo agreed. The two of them studied martial arts from time to time and became a pair of good friends.
Twenty years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the Eldest Prince met the successor of the Ancient Tomb Sect. He was shocked and announced that he would give up his right to inherit the throne and live in seclusion. However, because the Ming Dynasty had always treated men and women equally, the Eldest Princess had always been the second in line to inherit the throne. Now that she encountered such a situation, she did not panic at all.
Not panic? That was impossible. Zhang Wuji wanted to abdicate the Eldest Princess immediately. However, he was stopped by Zhang Qingqing. After talking with her daughter for a night, the Eldest Princess immediately chose a prince consort. When the second child was one year old, it was already the fifth year of the Ming Dynasty, and the throne was passed down.
