When Xu Pengju received Wang Yuanzhi's invitation, he came over happily without any intention of showing off.

As an "insider", Xu Pengju knew very well what those wealthy businessmen with zodiac orders meant. In Nanjing City, in the palace, Fengtian Hall, which had been converted into a parliament, certainly had half the say of the Ming Dynasty.

As the speaker of the House, Yang Tinghe was not only able to stand up to the emperor, but he actually killed an emperor.

It seems that Yang Tinghe's overwhelming power is the mastermind behind everything, but this is just a representative born based on the rules of the game of the scholar-bureaucrat class.

Yang Tinghe had this power because he represented the entire class of scholar-bureaucrats.

When Yang Tinghe retires, a new "speaker" will be born, and the Yang family will have nothing to do with this power from now on. Even if future generations strive for success, how much shadow will be left after people leave?

The strength of "Yang Tinghe and others" is temporary, but the wealth of the twelve wealthy businessmen holding the zodiac order can be passed down from generation to generation.

so.

Even if Xu Pengju dared to laugh and curse at Yang Tinghe, as long as he didn't really offend, it wouldn't have any impact. But towards Wang Yuanzhi, he was quite polite.

The two of them exchanged pleasantries and sat down at the table.

Xu Pengju took the initiative to warm up the atmosphere and toasted enthusiastically. After three drinks, he immediately got to the point and said: "The Dengwen Drum is really a magical tool for governing the country. It should be escorted to Beijing by the Little Heavenly Master and presented to His Majesty!"

Zhang Zhixiang and Wang Yuanzhi looked at each other, but they did not expect Xu Pengju to be so enlightened.

This prince, who is a bit fat and looks like a pot-bellied general, is not as dandy as he seems on the surface. In fact, he is quite thoughtful.

“If we really use the law to regulate the law, will it be too strict and counterproductive?”

On the contrary, Wang Yuanzhi asked with some "worry", Xu Pengju immediately waved his hand and said boldly: "Hey! Brother Wang is wrong about what he said. In this march, will the artillery be used because the killing is too heavy? That is a decision.

unable."

"What the Yi and Di feared from China were firearms."

"Those who fear the law are the ones who fear the evildoers in the world and listen to the drum!"

Xu Peng slapped his thighs loudly, expressing his firm determination, but then he clapped his hands sadly and complained: "We uphold justice for all people in the world. This is a good deed of immeasurable merit, but such good deeds always have consequences.

If a villain does not know what is good and what is evil, he will do his best to stop it."

"Although someone has a heart, he has no plan."

"I wonder if there is any way for my brother to send Dengwen Drum to the capital safely?"

Like a master, Xu Pengju kicked the ball back to Wang Yuanzhi with a swivel and waited to see if Wang Yuanzhi and Zhang Zhixiang had any good ideas.

If it's not reliable, the fat man will probably shirk it.

Wang Yuanzhi narrowed his eyes slightly and did not answer. Instead, he sat back and added a cup of tea to himself. This made Xu Pengju's secretly looking eyes blink and he didn't understand.

At this time, Zhang Zhixiang said: "The duck prophets of Spring River Water Warmth, they have not yet thought of the role of the Dengwen Drum."

"But as long as we take away the Denwen drum, they will react immediately."

"The dangers along the way are probably unimaginable."

"So, in order to successfully break through, we must find a way to create a time lag. Before they find out, we have to leave and go some distance away."

Zhang Zhixiang talked about the plan he had discussed with the Wang family and his daughter in the afternoon.

To take away the Dengwen Drum, the best way is to "steal the sky and change the day" so that the battle over the Dengwen Drum can end as quickly and reasonably as possible. During the fight between the two parties, they stole the Dengwen Drum and took it to the capital.

It would be best if it could be completed quietly without being discovered...

Even if they are discovered and have walked some distance away, they have a greater chance of breaking out when faced with pursuit.

After hearing this plan, Xu Pengju thought carefully for a while and felt that there was still a possibility of success. The key point was that it would be difficult for them to steal the Dengwen drum, but it would be easy for Yang Tinghe to destroy the Dengwen drum.

So even if he whistled, he wouldn't have much benefit...

The Wang family's support for Zhang Zhixiang and their use of Dengwen drum indicate that they are planning to do something big, and now is the best chance to get on board.

"Wonderful!"

"I, Lao Xu, don't have much education, and I don't understand all the twists and turns, but my brother and the little Heavenly Master have requests. Even though they are ordered, let's work together to advocate justice for all people in the world!"

He said it rudely, but who doesn't know that he is a thoughtful person?

However, since he was in a group, he didn't bother to expose his disguise. Halfway through the meal, Xu Pengju even punched everyone to cheer up, not caring at all that this was an actor's behavior that would lose points.

Only then did Zhang Zhixiang discover that Xu Pengju was not fat, but strong.

This is what ancient generals were like. Their "big bellies" were not unreasonable. After all, ancient logistics was no better than modern ones. Without sufficient fat reserves, they could not withstand the hardships of war.

Furthermore, fat is actually a defense force.

Therefore, we can see that all the generals in ancient paintings are big and round. Xu Pengju is worthy of being a general. He must have received such a physique from the education he received since childhood, which is about the training of generals.

He practices Wudang Longhua Boxing. The characteristics of Longhua Boxing are rapid movement, stillness, flashing and leaping, the body is like a dragon, the tiger is crouching and the eagle is flying. It is especially focused on the kicking technique. It often uses several kicks in succession, as fast as lightning, and is unstoppable.

.

The characteristics of this technique make Xu Pengju look like a nimble fat man...

Wang Jiangque said that Xu Pengju was a martial arts master who was not in the martial arts realm, and he was not mistaken. His flexibility and ease were naturally a manifestation of his profound martial arts skills.

After Xu Pengju finished boxing, the atmosphere became much livelier.

They chatted about Zhang Zhixiang's martial arts training. Although they knew that the person who taught Zhang Zhixiang martial arts was Zhang Yonghuan, a well-educated martial arts master, Xu Pengju still liked to be a teacher.

"You Taoist priests teach martial arts in a gentle manner and pay attention to calmness of mind."

"Taoist Master Yonghuan asks you to stand, and you will stand still. You don't understand the charm of martial arts at all. How can you be motivated to study martial arts?"

"Come on, let me teach you something fun."

With that said, Xu Pengju pulled Zhang Zhixiang up. He asked Zhang Zhixiang to raise his hands flat and straighten them, and then tilted his palms back to straighten and tighten his tendons.

"Yes, that's it."

"Straighten, straighten again, until you feel the force of rebound. Don't be afraid, keep pulling...pop!"

Xu Pengju was teaching, and suddenly he slapped down with a heavy force, but it only slightly shook Zhang Zhixiang's thin little arm. Even if he just restrained his force and used skill, but...

"I didn't use any strength..."

Zhang Zhixiang murmured. He didn't use much strength to straighten his tendons. It could be said that his muscles were even in a relaxed state. But the palm that Xu Peng raised just now only made his arm shake slightly?

"Hehe... Do you understand? This is the power of tendons."

"To practice martial arts, you must first open your muscles and bones. When the muscles and bones are activated, the strength of the whole body will be activated. Only in this way can you exert power that ordinary people cannot achieve, and this is the foundation of the realm of mastery."

"How, magical or not?"

"The human body is a huge treasure, and martial arts is to unlock this treasure!"

Xu Pengju was very cautious, and it was just a small trick, but as he said, Zhang Zhixiang finally saw the charm of martial arts and became interested in martial arts from the bottom of his heart...
