Zhao Yuan's original intention was just to make the Liu family stand out, but he didn't expect that he would unknowingly fall into the whirlpool of rumors.

This puts the Liu family in a somewhat embarrassing situation and a dilemma.

"Young Master Yang, Mr. Hu invites you!"

Early the next morning, soldiers came.

Zhao Yuan nodded and followed the soldiers towards Hu Zongxian's camp, but he was thinking about two words in his heart: conditions!

Everything is a double-edged sword, good or bad, and the same is true for the rumors everywhere now. Indeed, they will make the Liu family passive, but on the other hand, it is not a bad thing for the Liu family. Instead, I can use this Liu family's Hu Zongxian to speak.

Under the conditions, she helped him win, but the result was that he was framed and questioned, and the Liu family is now the main sufferer.

Not long after, Zhao Yuan arrived at Hu Zongxian's camp, got permission and walked in.

As soon as he entered the door, Hu Zongxian greeted him and said, "Young Shaoxia, you are finally here."

Zhao Yuan cupped his hands and said: "Common people see you, sir!"

Hu Zongxian smiled and said: "Don't be so outspoken. Sit down and talk."

When Zhao Yuan heard this, he also sat down under Hu Zongxian. Hu Zongxian returned to his desk and said: "In the battle a few days ago, our army defeated the Japanese pirates, which shocked the morale of the army. I have already prepared a plan and sent someone to deliver it."

Capital City, please give me credit for Yang Shaoxia and the Liu family!"

Zhao Yuan pretended to change his expression and said anxiously: "Sir, you must not do this!"

Hu Zongxian was a little tempted. Not to mention that this was a great achievement in the first place. Others were trying every possible means to get awards from the court. It was better for him. He wanted to show off his merits to the court, but he was unwilling. This was the first time he had encountered this problem in so many years as an official.

, and asked in confusion: "Why?"

Zhao Yuan cupped his hands and said, "You don't know something. The reason why the Liu family is training their troops diligently is because Master Yi said that he wants the world's martial arts to assist the court in exterminating the Japanese pirates. It is said that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. However, there are rumors flying all over the world. The rest is just okay.

, let them talk about it, but there are rumors among them that the Liu family is self-respecting and intends to rebel! We are just a fool, so how can we have the slightest intention of rebellion? But everyone's mouth is full of gold, and the Liu family has to be careful.

So I came here today to ask for my resignation, sir. I will let people keep the weapons and armor as a token of the Liu family's gratitude to the imperial court!"

Hu Zongxian's face changed when he heard this, and he said in surprise: "Is this really happening? I don't know anything about it. I immediately sent someone to investigate thoroughly, and I will punish those who spread rumors severely!"

Hu Zongxian never expected that such a thing would happen. Although the two hundred people of the Liu family were rough, they had rare fighting power. Even if there were not many people, if they were used well, they could turn into sharp knives and pierce fiercely.

The Japanese pirates had trouble sleeping and eating in their bellies.

Hu Zongxian already had some plans in mind on how to use the Liu family. Originally, he asked Zhao Yuan to come here today, on the one hand, to ask for credit from the court on his behalf, and on the other hand, to study the next move, but he had not yet had time to come up with his subsequent plans.

Zhao Yuan actually proposed to leave because the Liu family couldn't bear the rumors.

Zhao Yuan said again: "Your Excellency, I understand with good intentions. After all, the Liu family is a sect in the world. If other Jianghu sects are implicated, from now on, the Liu family will not be able to gain a foothold in the Jianghu. The common people have decided to leave. Mr. Hu, I understand with kindness. Please atone for your sins!"

"

After saying that, Zhao Yuan saluted again, turned around and left Hu Zongxian's camp.

Hu Zongxian, who was in the tent, looked livid at the moment, slapped the table hard, and said angrily: "This is unreasonable! Come here, tell Master Yi to come!"

It doesn't matter whether these martial arts people came to Hu Zongxian sincerely for the imperial court to suppress Japanese pirates. He didn't care if they were doing it to show off their faces. However, now a person who can be used in a big way has finally appeared. It's not

Being repulsed by the Japanese pirates was not annihilated by the Japanese pirates, but forced to retreat by rumors and rumors. This made Hu Zongxian very angry.

After leaving Hu Zongxian's camp, Zhao Yuan went straight back to his own camp, immediately asked everyone to take off their armor and put down their weapons, and then the whole team prepared to leave.

Tang Qingyun heard this and hurried over. Seeing that Zhao Yuan's people were already packing their things and preparing to leave, he was surprised and said: "Are you really planning to take your people away?"

The two of them talked for half the night last night, and Zhao Yuan didn't say anything about his plans. Now when he saw them packing their luggage, Tang Qingyun realized that Zhao Yuan really planned to leave with someone.

Zhao Yuan nodded and said: "I thought about it for a long time last night. The Liu family is a wild place and is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court or bound by military law. To assist the imperial court in exterminating the Japanese pirates is to serve the country and fulfill the responsibility of a man! It is natural not to send troops.

. But the first thing is to protect yourself. Now that the court wants to use you, you may not care about the rumors, but once you are no longer of use value, when the time comes, someone with a heart will turn over the old score. Even if you, the Liu family, have made great contributions, in the end,

There is no escape!”

Not to mention a mere Liu family, even those high-ranking members of the imperial court, as long as they are convicted of treason, the king Long Yan will be angry and will only die.

Tang Qingyun was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Since Brother Yang has decided to leave, Tang will not try to stay."

Zhao Yuan cupped his hands and said: "Master Tang, take your leave!"

Then with a big wave of his hand, he led the troops and left the station in a mighty manner.

There was such a big commotion in the Liu family, and many people came to watch, including Bai Chenxi and Zuo Yuming. The two of them were mixed in the crowd. Bai Chenxi smiled and said: "Look, I really can't handle it. This is not

He left in despair!"

Zuo Yuming said: "Brother Bai is still smart. This method of not taking advantage of others is really good. Let's see how the Liu family can claim credit!"

When Zhao Yuan led his people away, Head Yi was being summoned to Hu Zongxian and his camp. He didn't know that Zhao Yuan had been here before.

But after entering the camp, Master Yi suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the camp. Before he could speak, Hu Zongxian took the lead and said: "Master Yi, all those martial arts people should be dismissed!"

Leader Yi was stunned and quickly asked: "Master Hu, why is this? They all came voluntarily to do their best."

Hu Zongxian calmed down his anger and said: "Meager strength? Huh..., the so-called meager strength is talking about people behind their backs and gossiping? Do your best for the court? The court does not need such people to do their best for the court!"

When Master Yi heard this, he became anxious and said quickly: "Sir, what do ordinary people mean by this?"

Hu Zongxian sneered and said: "I don't know? I already know it and you don't know it yet? Well, I will tell you that the Liu family assisted the court twice in killing the Japanese pirates with Yang Shaoxia and two hundred strong men of the Liu family.

There are nearly 800 people, and I have planned to write a note to the court to ask for credit on their behalf. However, before I can send the note, rumors spread that the Liu family respects its own troops and intends to rebel! This matter makes the leader Yi Yi

Don’t you know?”

Master Yi was shocked. He had indeed heard about this matter, and said, "It's just some rumors. You don't need to take it to heart."

Hu Zongxian said: "I don't take it to heart, but do you think the Liu family doesn't take it to heart? The most taboo thing in the court is the word rebellion. In order to clear up the relationship with the Liu family, Yang Shaoxia insisted on taking people away no matter how he tried to persuade them to stay.

I would like to ask Master Yi, in your so-called Jianghu narrow sense, martial arts comrades are those who do not like others after they have made meritorious deeds, and do such things to slander others behind their backs? If this matter spreads, who among those martial arts people will serve the court?

Try your best? When you encounter Japanese pirates, you just put on a show. If you do this, it will be a hidden danger. How can I allow you to disrupt the morale of the army again?"

Leader Yi was a little panicked at this moment. He originally planned to use this to make meritorious service for his sect in the court and protect the sect's foundation. But if he knew that he had to leave just to go into battle, wouldn't it be possible that he had done so many things all at once?

Disappear into nothing?

As for those rumors, how could he not know about them, but he was somewhat dissatisfied with the Liu family stealing the limelight, so he just let them develop and pretended not to know.

But what he never expected was that the people of the Liu family actually left this place under the leadership of Zhao Yuan, and Hu Zongxian actually turned his anger on himself. Only then did Master Yi know the seriousness of the truth. In Hu Zongxian's eyes, where did they gather?

Thousands of martial arts people are not as important as two hundred Liu family members.

So he quickly said: "Master Hu, please..."

Hu Zongxian waved his hand and said: "Okay, you go back now, tell those people in the world what I mean, and then leave here as soon as possible, and I won't send you away!"
