The Record of Righteousness

During these forty-nine days, as the court increased taxes significantly, its treasury naturally filled up a lot!

However, this large amount of silver was neither used to provide relief to the victims nor to reissue soldiers' salaries. Instead, it was exploited layer by layer, and officials at all levels embezzled and made a fortune. Then this large amount of silver was used to build a new palace, which is the new palace of the Forbidden City, the Wanshou Palace!

This palace is specially used to collect rare animals, treasures from heaven and earth, and fight animals for fun!

The Jin people and the Yuan Mongols have been entrenched in Liaodong for a long time and have not withdrawn their troops. The people of Liaodong are already in dire straits. The Ming Dynasty defenders of Shanhaiguan watched the people being trampled under the iron hoofs of foreign races, and they were indifferent!

At the same time, large-scale famine and floods in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas were rampant, and countless people starved to death or drowned! However, local officials still ate and drank well, and some concealed the truth, and their free and easy days were still unaffected.

At this point, several small-scale peasant rebellions broke out. The total number of these peasants was nearly a thousand. After executing two county magistrates, they recruited soldiers and horses in an attempt to further fight against the government troops.

However, the peasant army was formed by multiple forces and was extremely unstable. In addition, their weapons and equipment were not as sophisticated as those of the government troops. Therefore, in just two months, this peasant uprising was bloodily suppressed by the Ming court!

At the same time, the number of pro-war factions against the Jin people and the Mongols in the court gradually increased, mostly officials from the Qingliu party!

They advocated sending troops to recover Liaodong, rectify the administration, provide relief to the people, and restore peace!

So, not long after Wan Qing came out of seclusion, he heard that several officials had died to advise the emperor, and listed the ten major crimes of the treacherous minister Wan Qing in a memorial, with bloody accusations and full of resentment!

However, Wan Qing responded quickly, crying in front of the emperor, with a loyal and courageous look, and bit back that those people were busy with party disputes, ignoring the people, and only seeking personal gain!

The emperor didn't care much about the government, and soon those people were thrown into the East Factory Prison, tortured to death by the head of the Jinyiwei and Li Guodong!

After getting rid of these people, Wan Qing made a big fuss about peace in front of the emperor. He didn't want to recover Liaodong at all!

Once he had to send troops to recover Liaodong, he would be busy again. He would have to deal with the Jianghu sects next, and he must not fight on two fronts. At that time, it would be a small matter for the generals to become bigger and stronger and dominate one side, but it would be a big matter for the emperor to lose trust!

Based on this consideration, Wandang frantically suppressed the officials who advocated war. For a time, those civil and military officials who advocated war, no matter how powerful their backgrounds were, were exiled to the southwest, or tortured to death in the imperial prison!

As for the emperor, he was thinking about the Wanshou Palace which had just started construction, and he didn't care about political affairs at all!

The court was back in control, and there was almost no opposition. Wan Qing was relieved, and then he would start to deal with those martial arts sects!

And Leng Tian's existence during this period of time also brought some clues of Zhuge Yuanxu, so Wan Qing spared his life, and then sent a group of soldiers to hunt down Zhuge Yuanxu. The current priority is to destroy the martial arts sects!

Because the Taishan Sect was listed as a rebel and destroyed during the Taifeng period, there are only five top sects left in the martial arts world!

They are Tianshan Sword Sect, Wudang Sect, Shaolin Temple, Huashan Sword Sect and Puji Temple in Putuo Mountain!

At the beginning of the third year of Zhengtong, Mingting issued an edict requiring all sects in the world to bow to the six gates of the court, hand over their own unique skills, and be under the jurisdiction of the six gates from then on!

All the major sects in the martial arts world were terrified. Their unique skills were the foundation of their survival in the martial arts world. If they were handed over to the Six Gates of the imperial court, wouldn't they be in name only? ! How could they survive in the future? !

So far, the martial arts sects led by the five major sects have resisted this edict, and there are very few sects that can voluntarily submit.

But this was all within Wan Qing's expectations!

Since then, the five major sects have been listed as rebels.

The emperor personally appointed the governor of the East Factory and the Marquis of Jingzhong Wan Qing to lead the army and lead tens of thousands of troops to fight against the rebels!

The first to bear the brunt was naturally the Huashan Sword Sect, which was located closest!

In order to resist this shameless act of the imperial court, the other four major sects all supported many masters to the Huashan Sect. Xiaoyaozi, the head of the Jiangnan Xiaoyao Sect, personally led his disciples to support.

The head of the Huashan Sect, the Dragon Swordsman Yuxuzi, personally went out to fight!

All the sects in the martial arts world are very optimistic about Huashan Sect. The Huashan Sect has the same qualifications as Taishan Sect! .

Its leader Yuxuzi is known as the Dragon Swordsman in the martial arts world. He has mastered Huashan's unique martial arts, Zixia Magical Art and Hunyuan Art!

It is rumored that Yuxuzi's Zixia Magical Art has been practiced to a great degree!

Hunyuan Art has even reached the ninth level and is almost perfect!

As for Huashan Sect's unique swordsmanship, Chongling Swordsmanship, Three Immortal Swords of Death, Qingfeng Thirteen Styles, etc., Yuxuzi has reached the pinnacle. His swordsmanship bleeds without leaving any trace, so he is named the Dragon Swordsman.

He is the top master in the martial arts world!

Even though the government troops have a large number of troops, there are probably not many real masters!

Many eyes in the martial arts world are on Huashan, hoping that the government troops will fall here and stop from then on.

Soon, tens of thousands of government troops launched a large-scale attack on Huashan, and the masters and apprentices of Huashan Sect fought bloody battles with the government troops for seven days and seven nights!

At the beginning, the masters and disciples of Huashan Sect were full of confidence. Everyone's martial arts skills were not low, so it was easy for them to deal with those soldiers!

And once they fought, the government troops were indeed suppressed by the masters and disciples of Huashan Sect.

But later, news came out that Yuxuzi fought with the eunuch Wanqing and was easily killed!

So he died!

Even the Xiaoyao Sect that went to support was annihilated, and Xiaoyaozi was also killed!

The masters sent by the other four sects to support naturally did not return, and died in battle on Huashan!

Yuxuzi died in battle, and Huashan Sect was destroyed!

This news hit the heads of the various sect leaders like a bolt from the blue, causing them to be unwilling to believe it easily.

The major sects were like being poured with a basin of cold water, and their enthusiasm for fighting was gone.

Yuxuzi is the top master in the world! How could he be killed so easily? ! !

How high is the martial arts of that eunuch who can kill Yuxuzi? ! !
