The so-called three pools reflecting the moon are actually three stone towers and their surrounding waters, the stone towers were built in the fourth year of the Song Dynasty, each about one zhang high, standing on the surface of the lake with shimmering water, forming an equilateral triangle. The lake in the south of Xiaoyingzhou is an excellent place to enjoy the moon on the lake, the water is as deep as a pool, and the moon shadow is deep.

When Su Shi cleaned up the silt in the West Lake, he dug the deepest here, and repaired the stone tower here in order to mark the boundary of the water area and mark the silt accumulation in the lake. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, when the moon is in the sky, people light candles in the hollow tower, the candlelight is transparent, then the tower shadow, the cloud shadow, the moon shadow melt into one, the candlelight, the moonlight, the lake light reflect each other's beautiful scenery

Since then, "the moonlight reflects the pool, and the tower is divided into three, so there are three pools of the moon. ”

At this time, Zhu Zhantan, who was standing on the bow of the boat, seemed to be attracted by the picturesque scenery in front of him, and stared at it for a long time, but still had no intention of entering the painting boat.

Poor Fluttershy next to her had a pair of sore wrists, and she had to grit her teeth and work hard to support her in order to prevent her from getting wet, but this autumn rain turned out to be like spring rain, and the boat was in the middle of the lake, and the lake breeze could not be enough around her, if she hadn't practiced martial arts, I am afraid that it would have been impossible to support it at this time.

But even so, in the face of the dripping autumn rain and the whistling lake breeze, her wrist was still a little unbearable, and her wrist had been polished red by the oil-paper umbrella, wet by the rain that blew up, and it hurt indescribably.

Fluttershy gritted her teeth and glanced at Zhu Zhantan beside her, and shouted hesitantly, "Shizi, how long has Lord Liu been waiting?" ”

Zhu Zhantan, who was patiently watching, listened to this reminder, his body trembled slightly, his hands suddenly let go, rubbed left and right, and then withdrew his gaze, turned around to look at the painting boat, and said, "Go in?" ”

Fluttershy breathes a sigh of relief and quickly puts away her tarpaulin umbrella and rubs her numb wrist.

Zhu Zhantan bent over, bowed his head and walked into the painting boat, the decoration of the painting boat is not luxurious, but it is better to be clean, brief, window sill, seats, as if carefully washed.

There was a small table in the middle of the painting boat, there was a pot and a stove on the table, and there was a fire burning on the stove, and the flames flashed left and right the moment Zhu Zhantan walked in.

There is a person on the left and right of the painting boat, the one on the left is the guard Mei Qing, and the one on the right is Li Yao beside him, the two of them sat with their hands together, their heads down and didn't know what to think.

Hearing the movement at this time, the two subconsciously glanced up, and when they saw Zhu Zhantan walking in, the two immediately stood up and clasped their fists and saluted: "Humble Meiqing, Li Yao has seen the little prince!" “

Zhu Zhantan waved his hand and said, "It's all my own family, don't be so formal, sit down and say?" “

The two thanked each other, got back into their seats, and followed Fluttershy, who hurriedly lifted the teapot and served a cup of tea to the three of them, before standing behind Zhu Zhantan.

Fluttershy glances at Fluttershy, her lips moving, but she doesn't say anything right away.

"Don't worry, Fluttershy has been following Wang for many years and is already one of her own, so why don't you just say something?" Zhu Zhantan picked up the teacup, lowered his head and gently blew the tea leaves in the teacup, and said in a light tone.

Mei Qing responded, no longer suspicious, and hugged his fists and said: "A qiē according to the plan of the little prince?" “

Hearing this, Zhu Zhantan's eyes lit up, put down the teacup, and said in a low voice: "This is true!" “

Mei Qing nodded, and said in a low voice: "I am on the orders of the little prince and secretly monitor every move of the Maitreya Sect, so Li Fuda has been extremely angry since he learned that the little prince sent the news, and despite the hard persuasion of his subordinates, he insists on attacking the city of Hangzhou!" ”

Zhu Zhantan smiled indifferently and said: "Li Fuda is only ambitious, it is not surprising that he can make a move, I don't know if he can mobilize troops and horses?" ”

Mei Qing said: "When he came back, he had already mobilized more than 10,000 soldiers and horses from Shaoxing, and the people and horses in Hangzhou were also actively completed, but I am afraid that it will not take a few days before he will send troops!" ”

Zhu Zhan said frankly: "Can you see how many people they have?" ”

Mei Qing thought about it carefully and said, "Not to mention that there are 30,000 people? ”

"I can't imagine that there are so many people in the little Maitreya Sect, no wonder the emperor's grandfather joined the Ming Sect in his early years, and after seizing the world, he actually strictly controlled the Ming Sect, and now it makes perfect sense.

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang started with Mingjiao in his early years, and after ascending to the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, because he knew the power of the secret sect, he issued an edict strictly prohibiting the White Lotus Sect, the Ming Sect and other sects, and wrote the ban on "leftist evil arts" into the "Ming Law", which was fixed in the form of law. Later, the White Lotus Sect continued to develop in the form of various tribes, but few could do things, until the Yongle period, Chengzu moved the capital from Nanjing to Beijing, overhauled the palace, and organized manpower, transferred grain from the south to the north, and dug a canal, and successively requisitioned hundreds of thousands of people in Shandong, the burden of peasant conscription was heavy, coupled with floods, droughts, plague epidemics, and the masses lived very difficult. The masses in Shandong, Henan and other places have reached the point of eating tree bark and grass roots to support their lives. "People eat grass for food." By the seventeenth year of Yongle, "Shandong, Henan, Shanxi and other places were still in a famine, water and drought, to peel off the bark and dig grass roots...... The old and the young moved, bumped the road, sold their wives and children, in order to make a living, so that Tang Sai'er in Shandong, in the name of spreading the White Lotus Sect, gathered thousands of people, and in February of the 18th year of Yongle, he started an incident in Yidu unloading stone shed village (now in Qingzhou City).

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

After Tang Sai'er's uprising, he completely annihilated the besieging army, and killed Gao Feng, the commander of Qingzhou, and Tang Sai'er's White Lotus Sect was greatly prestigious. Crack down on the government and the wealthy landlords. The people in the east of Qingzhou have responded to the uprising, "destroying the official office, burning the warehouse", opening a warehouse to help the poor, the power, from the initial 3,000 people, rapidly developed to more than 20,000 people, shook the Beijing division, alarmed Zhu Di, the masses in the east of Qingzhou have responded, Yidu, Zhucheng, Anqiu, Juzhou, Jiaozhou and other states and counties have appeared more than a dozen rebel armies, swept the north, Zhu Di was furious, the current edict "The edict is not convenient for the people and is not in a hurry; Seventeen years ago, the land grain was exempted from last year's disaster. This kind of relief to Qingzhou and Laizhou in the same month, and then the removal of levies and disaster-stricken field grain, and at the same time sent the elite soldiers of the Beijing Division, led by Liu Sheng, the commander of Anyuanhou, and Liu Zhong, the commander of the capital, to come to the levy. The Ming army was outnumbered and surrounded Tang Sai'er Cottage. Tang Sayer pretended to surrender and took the opportunity to attack the official army at night. The Ming army was in turmoil, and Liu Zhong was killed in battle. Tang Sayer broke through. Tang's troops captured Juzhou, Jimo and other places, and besieged Anqiu. Tang Sai'er's department was finally defeated and eliminated by Wei Qing, the commander of the Shandong capital, and although the Ming army won a big victory this time, the leaders of the White Lotus Sect, Tang Sai'er, Bin Hong, Dong Yangao, etc., were safely transferred. Zhu Di was furious, put Liu Sheng in prison, and executed the political envoys, senators, envoys, deputy envoys, and county officials who had revolted in Shandong on the charge of "arsoning with the thief and not saying a word". In order to trace Tang Sai'er's whereabouts, from March to May of the same year, he ordered the arrest of nuns and Taoist priests in Beijing and Shandong twice, and later arrested tens of thousands of nuns and Taoist priests across the country, and escorted them to Jingshi for examination, but no trace of them was found.

After this blow, the upper and lower levels of the Ming Dynasty were extremely strict with the Ming Sect and the White Lotus Sect, and they would be killed once they were discovered, so the development strength of the various factions was extremely weak.

There are more than 20,000 people in such a small sect as Maitreya, which almost catches up with the scale of Tang Sai'er back then, so Zhu Zhantan is not surprised.

"The little Maitreya Sect has such a scale, Xiao Wang underestimated Li Fuda, but it's okay, this time the Maitreya family attacked Hangzhou City, and the court will not let go of the Maitreya Sect, and it will inevitably be the first priority to exterminate the Maitreya Sect, the father is not yet ripe to raise troops, and the Maitreya Sect is contained, and the imperial court will inevitably run aground when the capital is moved, and secondly, some ministers with ulterior motives in the imperial court will not focus on the major affairs of the father, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!"

"What is the little prince thinking about?" Mei Qing bowed.

Zhu Zhantan took a sip of tea and continued: "Even if the Maitreya Sect is defeated this time, it can attract the attention of the imperial court, which is of great benefit to our actions in Hangzhou. ”

Several people in the painting boat nodded, agreeing with Zhu Zhantan's opinion.

At this time, the autumn rain of the painting boat is getting heavier and heavier, dripping on the surface of the West Lake, just like the one depicted in Bai Letian's "Pipa Xing", the big beads and small beads fall on the jade plate, which is very spectacular.

Zhu Zhantan squinted his eyes and glanced outside the painting boat, and he didn't know what he thought, his retracted gaze suddenly became a little colder, and asked, "Is there any movement in Hangzhou City?" ”

Li Yao, who was behind Mei Qing, heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "I found out that the imperial court sent Yang Shiqi to be responsible for exterminating the Maitreya Sect, and brought the elite people from the capital?" “

Zhu Zhantan squinted his eyes and muttered for a while, and said, "Is Yang Shiqi alone?" “

Li Yao has been exploring the movements in Hangzhou City very clearly these days, and at this time, Zhu Zhantan seemed to have distrust, and he didn't care: "It's true that Yang Shiqi is alone, but-?" “

Zhu Zhantan was stunned when he heard Li Yao, turned his head to look at Li Yao, and said in a deep voice: "But what?" “

Li Yao's body trembled, he had followed Zhu Zhantan's side for many years, and he knew that this little prince seemed generous on the outside, but his heart was extremely dark, and he would be hated by him if he was not careful.

I didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and said busily: "Yang Shiqi recently found someone to help?" ”

Zhu Zhantan was a little confused, obviously a little bit unintelligible, what is Yang Shiqi's ability, others don't know, Zhu Gaoxi's family is very clear, this person is good at disguise, and there are a lot of strategies in his heart, if it weren't for him back then, in the battle for the prince, the fat man on the dragon chair may not be able to win the father, such a character, to deal with a Maitreya Sect still have to find someone to help, it is really strange, for these strangeness, compared to the person who was valued by Yang Shiqi and invited to help, he was more curious? “

"Who is this person?" Zhu Zhantan thought for a while and asked.
