"Yang Yi is dead?"

Dong Solstice was inexplicably surprised, according to the information at hand, she deduced that Yang Yi was likely to have completely lost power, or was ordered to think behind closed doors, restricted the scope of action, or was directly placed under house arrest in the residence, but she never expected that Du Mingyu actually killed Yang Yi.

He really had the courage to kill Yang Yi!

Half a year ago, Yang Yi was at the same level as Du Mingyu, and they were both the rulers of Yangzhou, but half a year later, he died in the hands of Du Mingyu! The magic of power can be seen here!

But the problem is that Yang Yi is not an ordinary Heavenly Master Taoist official, as the righteous ruler of Yangzhou, his power and status are almost more powerful than the Yizhi sacrificial wine in the middle and lower ranks, and he is also the personal disciple of Zhang Changye, the great sacrificial wine of Heming Mountain, Du Mingyu said that he would kill him, is he really not afraid of being burned?

"That's right, Yang Zhengzhi was cut off by Du Saijiu's own hands!"

"What about the charges?"

Ziche seemed to recall that scene, his body trembled slightly, and said, "The crime is that he is greedy for money, renting rice, and taxes, insulting the sisters in the Dao, slandering the teacher, and disrespecting the heavenly master...... Also, the following are guilty of ......"

Any one, according to the "Dao Precepts", is a big sin, and it is a good means to know the jade. Dong Zhi was puzzled and said: "Yang Yi is also a righteous ruler, didn't he resist?" There is no one in the rule to intercede for him? ”

"Since the Qiantang Lake Yaji defeated Zhu Fayan, no one in the governance is dissatisfied, it is the time when the momentum is at its peak, and he holds the evil sword in his hand, who dares to resist? Who dares to intercede? ”

For a long time, everyone thought that Xu You was the one who benefited the most from Qiantang Lake Yaji, but now it seems that the real vested interest is the unpredictable Du Mingyu, who sacrifices wine!

The winter solstice has no time to cherish Yang Yi's death and injury, the king is defeated and defeated, and the loser has no qualifications to be remembered, and asks: "Yang Yi is dead, who will take over Zhengzhi?" ”

"It hasn't been decided yet, but depending on the meaning of the sacrificial wine, we must select the right person from among all the Taoist people to take over the throne."

"But according to the usual practice, shouldn't we give priority to the selection of the five spirit officials?"

Ziche laughed at himself: "Where are there still five spirit officials in Yangzhou, including me, there are only three people left!" The prayer spirit officer and Yang Yi approached, and they were locked up by the sacrificial wine, and whether they could survive or not was still between them. In addition to the plague spirit officer contracted the disease last year, his health was not good, and he saw the fierce internal fighting, he was disheartened, and he had decided to leave Yangzhou. As for me," he said, ...... terrible pale, "I had inadvertently offended the priest a few years ago...... He will never let my ...... go"

Ziche's grievances with Du Mingyu were already clear to Dong Zhi, otherwise he would not have chosen him as a breakthrough. It's not a big deal, Du Mingyu's fifty baskets will go to collect the rent and rice money tax, and push an old man, within a few days, the old man died of illness, and no one can say whether it has anything to do with the general, but the family members made trouble on Linwu Mountain, Du Mingyu had to send money to settle the matter, and made an appointment to die for the old man in person.

Ziche was dying and agreed first, but it happened that he was called away by Yang Yi that day to do the important things that Du Jingzhi explained, and the old man's family didn't see the undead official when they arrived in Jinglu, so they immediately repented and went directly to the government. Later, it was Du Jingzhi who came forward to deal with the government and the old man's family, and Du Mingyu had to be reprimanded, and counted the hatred on Ziche's dying head.

This matter began since Du Mingyu became the sacrificial wine of Yangzhou Zhi, and it became a heavy burden for Ziche to bear, but relying on Yang Yi and other spiritual officials, Du Mingyu was alone, and he was not afraid of what he could do. Who knew that the situation took a turn for the worse, Yang Yi was killed, the spirit officer was imprisoned, and the spirit officer had the intention of removing the plague, leaving him who didn't know when a catastrophe would come.

Therefore, after being matched by a reliable person, the price of one million dollars on the winter solstice became a temptation that he could not refuse. With this money, once you really can't stay in Linwu Mountain, you will have a lot more room to choose from, whether it is to go back to Heming Mountain to dredge up and down, find another place to go, or simply leave and go incognito, you are not afraid of running out of money.

One million dollars, compared to the undead officer's fortune, is simply an astronomical amount!

"You see, this is the benefit of making friends, my master has business all over Jiangdong, no matter where Ziche Lingguan wants to go, you can tell me, I will definitely arrange it properly, and I will not be discovered by anyone."

The winter solstice does not have Xu You and He Wei's excellent eyesight to look directly at people's hearts, but Ziche's idea of dying is so easy to guess that Du Mingyu even dares to kill Yang Yi, and it is nothing to kill him as a small spirit official. As long as you are not stupid, you will consider going away and flying high, and the problem of going away and flying high is nothing more than two points, one is how to go far, and the other is what to rely on!

The appearance of the winter solstice can perfectly help him solve these two problems!

The next communication became easier, there is indeed a secret passage in Linwu Mountain, and there is more than one, which can go from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the left god, the two caves of the void. Du Mingyu has absorbed a lot of new Taoists in the past few months, and the fastest promoted one has become a five-hundred-hundred-strong general. Although this kind of leapfrog promotion violates the relevant regulations of the Heavenly Master's Dao, looking at Yang Yi's fate, where does anyone dare to raise objections? Even if it is sued to Heming Mountain, it will not help, Yangzhou is squeezed by Buddhism, there is almost no place to stand, the so-called troubled times use heavy classics, Du Mingyu has every reason to make an exception to select talents.

"Could it be that the two new Zhengzhi want to choose from these Taoist people who have been personally promoted by the capital sacrificial wine?"

"No, the sacrificial wine would not dare to be so eager, let alone so stupid. The candidate for Masaji needs to be submitted to Tsurumaki Mountain, and the final decision can only be made after the deliberation of the seven great priests. The foundation of the sacrificial wine in Heming Mountain is still shallow, and even if you have the heart to push your own people, it is impossible to pass. ”

"Then, in your opinion, how will he behave?"

"If my guess is correct, the capital sacrificial wine will select loyal, honest, and easy-to-control people from among the old Taoists who have been teaching for many years, and report to Heming Mountain. After the candidates are approved, they will promote their henchmen to the positions of various generals or even spirit officials, so as to set up the correct rule and establish his absolute authority in Linwu Mountain......"

The winter solstice asked some core questions about the governance of Yangzhou one after another, and Ziche was dying without the reserve at the beginning, knowing everything and saying everything, and almost giving all the secrets of the Heavenly Master's governance in Yangzhou.

"Where's the vault?" Dong Solstice asked suddenly.

Ziche was stunned, couldn't believe his ears, and asked, "What?" ”

"The treasury, where is the treasury used by Yangzhou to store the tax on renting rice?"

Ziche was dying for a while before he reacted, got up, the teacups on the desk rolled to the ground, and the water was spilled everywhere, he stammered in shock, and said, "You, you...... Originally...... I want to rob the treasury...... Crazy, definitely crazy......"

Dong Solstice bent down to pick up the teacup, the whole process was not impatient, and even the smile on his face did not change in the slightest. This calmness alone is not alarmed, at least thirty percent of the skills learned from Xu You.

Calmness is the most powerful weapon to give confidence to others, the more panicked the other party is, the more they have to keep their faces unchanged, just as fear is contagious, and confidence is also contagious.

This is the truth that the winter solstice learned from Xu You in addition to calmness!

"You may be seated! As I said, don't worry. Dong Solstice smiled slightly and said, "Do you look at me, like a madman who doesn't know how to live or die?" ”

Robbing the treasury of the Wu County Government may still succeed, or it may be able to save a life to spend money, but robbing the treasury of the Heavenly Master, at the ends of the earth, there is no second way to go except for death.

Dong Solstice really didn't look like a madman, Ziche slowly calmed down, sat on his knees again, and said with a wry smile: "Girl, don't go around in circles, I'm a coward, I can't stand being scared!" ”

"I just want to know if there is still money in Yangzhou's treasury...... Oh no, it's not rigorous enough to say this, let me put it another way, is the money in the treasury consistent with the account books handed over to Hemingshan......"

Ziche was completely stunned, and said, "What do you mean, the sacrificial wine may have embezzled the money in the treasury?" ”

"It's not possible, as far as I know, Yangzhou's treasury is probably empty!" The voice of the winter solstice was full of Xiao Kill's coldness, and said: "Ziche Lingguan, Yang Yi was executed by Du Sacrificial Wine for greedy ink, you haven't thought about it, why did Du Sacrificial Wine have to kill him?" ”

"This ...... The capital sacrificial wine wants to be in power, and Yang Zhengzhi is a constraint after all......"

This is only one of the reasons, the real reason is that all the sacrificial wine needs someone to take his sins. If it is found that there is less money in the treasury, Yang Yi, who is greedy for ink, is the best substitute for the dead! ”

Ziche stared blankly at the winter solstice, unable to speak anymore!

In an official tone, the first meeting between the two was very successful, leaving a good impression on each other and laying a solid foundation for the next step of cooperation. To put it bluntly, the winter solstice feels that the sub-car is easy to be bought, and the sub-car feels that the buyer of the winter solstice is more reliable, and the two sides hit it off and decided to increase cooperation.

Back in Wu County, Dong Zhi changed into a plain white jacket and skirt, and went to Sili Mansion to meet Meng Xingchun. Sili Mansion did not officially open in Yangzhou, only set up a branch of the Crouching Tiger Division, from the outside it looks like an ordinary house, three before and after, not big, the decoration is simple to make people think that they have arrived at the beggar's nest.

Dong Zhi handed Xu You's greetings, and only a moment later, Wang Fu hurriedly greeted him, without any negligence and contempt because Dong Zhi was a little girl, and was very respectful, leading her to the back house.

Meng Xingchun sat quietly under the west window, holding a book in his hand, the soft sunlight sprinkled on his thin cheeks, exuding a strong bookish atmosphere, if he didn't know his identity, he would think that he was just a teacher in a private school.

Seeing Wang Fu come in with the winter solstice, he closed the book and put it on the desk, the winter solstice glanced at Han Ma Rong's "Zhongjing", and said secretly in his heart: Meng Fake Zuo is really as Xiaolang said, good at selling fame and reputation, even thousands of miles away from the court, and tirelessly learning how to be loyal, can the emperor still see it?

"What's your name?"

Winter Solstice knelt down, bowed his head very low, expressed a deferential gesture, and said, "Winter Solstice!" ”

"When did you enter Xu Langjun's door?"

"Less than half a year."

Meng Xingchun said with a smile: "I can go out on a business trip alone in less than half a year, so there must be something outstanding." Literate? ”

"Slightly familiar, very shallow!"

"Is it shallow?" Meng Xingchun bent his fingers and knocked on the "Zhongjing", and said with a smile: "I see that you paid attention to this book just now, you should have read it." You and I read the same book, but we think we are very shallow, are you deliberately ridiculing my knowledge? ”

Winter Solstice's back suddenly oozed cold sweat.

She was still careless, and was paralyzed by Meng Xingchun's kindness on the outside, and suddenly fell into a dangerous situation!
