Chapter 118: Wang Sen on a hot pot
Luanzhou Stone Buddha Mouth. ββοΌ
"Dufoy! What a waste that has more than enough to accomplish and more to lose! β
With the sound of the porcelain being broken, Wang Sen's beard, which had become even older, cried out in the angry wind.
The servants around him were cowardly and did not dare to approach, for fear of being swallowed up by the sect master's wrath.
Wang Sen already knew that the disaster caused by Du Fu had caused a shock in the court. Even the royal princes, whom he had been clinging to before, no longer accepted his gifts and solicitations. As for Wang Dexiang, the eunuch in the palace, he won't see him after that.
It seems that this time, the court has believed in Wang Zhikey's words before his death, and has begun to treat him Wang Sen as a thief.
Since some things can't be changed, it is useless to make useless efforts, it is better to fight him to the death, maybe he can still win a glimmer of life.
So, Wang Sen began to plan, he really wanted to rebel.
It's just that the time is too tight now, and it seems too hasty to prepare the grain, grass and men and horses for the uprising, and it is impossible to do it in a short time.
But as much as he could, Wang Sen still sent most of his Deli manpower.
For example, Wang Haoxian and Cod. The former was responsible for organizing the congregations in various places to arm themselves, while the latter was in order to control the armed forces that were vital to Wang Sen, the Jianchang Camp in Qian'an County.
"Newspaperβ"
At this time, a little minion who was not afraid of death rushed in, ran to Wang Sen's side with a hoarse voice, and reported: "Elder Cod sent an urgent letter, please take a look." β
Wang Sen shouted in his heart, could it be that even his most trusted cod betrayed him?
"Impossible." Wang Sen said to himself, while snatching the urgent letter, only to see that it was written: Therefore, the master is anxious, so he used the urgent secret letter to tell him that everything is okay in Jianchang Camp in Qian'an County. Yang Deshi and Liu Dayin, the two commanders-in-chief, have already promised to cooperate with the army.
"Good!" Wang Sen was overjoyed and immediately shouted outside the door. "Reward the messenger with ten taels of silver!"
The servants who were trembling outside the door changed their original sneer, and began to look at the messenger with envious eyes, what a blessing it was.
"Thank you, Master." The messenger bowed respectfully, and then bowed down respectfully, without any trembling.
Wang Sen nodded overflowingly, it seems that the manpower controlled by the cod is not messed up.
As for how much progress his son Wang Haoxian has made now, Wang Sen generally does not doubt it.
He still has that confidence in the control of the cultists.
Back then, his control and influence surprised countless people. Among them was a man named Yue Harmony. Later sat down such a record.
"If you want to make it, you can make it in a carved period; If you want money, you can make up your money. A word can reach thousands of miles overnight; One move, just around the corner can gather thousands of people. β
That's right, a word can reach thousands of miles overnight. Now that his order to convene the congregation has been issued for more than half a month, it has spread all over the country.
One move, just around the corner can gather thousands of people. This is half a month. I am afraid that the heavier ones gathered are no less than hundreds of thousands. They will all be their own weapons, just the imperial court, although they have hundreds of thousands of guards. But it's all crop handles. Since the Jiajing era, it has been rotten and has had to use the method of recruiting troops to reorganize the armed forces.
The famous Qi Jiajun was born under that background.
But how many Qi family armies can there be in this world? Emperor Jiajing was lucky to be able to spread such a branch. In fact, it can be regarded as a great blessing, and he has not wasted decades of cultivation.
As for the current Wanli Emperor, although he is a scholar of what Emperor Jiajing did at that time, he engaged in "quiet photography". But his skills and background are obviously a step behind.
Wang Sen would never believe that from the hands of Emperor Wanli, a team similar to the Qi family's army could come out.
At this time, Wang Sen's second son, Wang Haoyi, suddenly walked in.
Glancing at his son suspiciously, Wang Sen asked, "Why don't you take care of your business at home, but come to me instead?" β
"Father, now it's the autumn of life and death, if something happens to the father, what kind of business does the son have to go through. Now, it is the time for my Wang family to hug each other. β
Wang Sen's old face turned red all of a sudden, and tears almost burst out of his eyes. Although it was his own son who said this, this son always believed that spreading such a thing as the White Lotus Sect would sooner or later lead to death.
Therefore, the relationship between their father and son was also estranged, but they didn't expect that at this critical time, the son actually stood up and jumped into the same trench with him.
"Good! Good! Wang Sen couldn't calm down for a long time with excitement, "With your help for my father, the emperor's throne is not impossible." β
"Father, I'm not the only one willing to help you. The eldest brother has already set off for Qingzhou Mansion. He said that according to your plan, he was going to take that guy named Kangning and take control of Qingzhou Mansion. β
"Yes, that's right." Wang Sen glanced in the direction of Qingzhou Mansion, and seemed to be able to see the back of his eldest son Wang Haoli hurrying away.
Thinking of Qingzhou Mansion, Wang Sen immediately thought of Du Fu who had not achieved enough things and had more than enough failures.
At that time, the two orders he gave to Du Fu were to monitor the king's key and get rid of him when he had to do so, and to spy on Corning, and get rid of him as soon as the time came.
In fact, as long as the king's key doesn't make a big mess, it doesn't matter if this person can't move at all. Even if he finds out that Li Yan died unnaturally, there is no direct evidence to prove that it is related to him Wang Sen.
Du Fu should know this in his heart, because he was the one who executed this character at that time, and whether there were any flaws left in his heart, he should be the most aware in his heart.
But he obviously lost that number, lost his sense of proportion, and instead exposed himself.
What's more, in this way, he lost his eyes and ears in Qingzhou Mansion. The information sent back by Wang Fu and Zhou Yin can only prove that there is no change in Kangning, but there is a serious lack of a comprehensive overview of Qingzhou Mansion.
Moreover, a certain move by Qingzhou Mansion made Wang Sen deeply uneasy. Du Fu was killed on the spot during the assassination of the King's Key. His men and horses were destroyed. Such a hero who can become a relative and anti-thief in one fell swoop, Qingzhou Mansion did not make a big deal to commend him, but kept it secret, and even gave people a feeling of blocking the news.
Wang Sen suddenly had an inexplicable feeling that this matter was inseparable from Kangning.
However, Kang Ning didn't know about Du Fu's affairs in Qingzhou Mansion at all. If he knew, Wang Fu and Zhou Yin beside him would definitely tell him.
It's just that it's hard to put into words. It always gives people a psychological hint of unsteadyness.
No matter what, this Corning has now reached the point where it needs to be eliminated. His mission has been largely accomplished. Don't look at the hot fight between him and Xu Hongru now, anyone can see that his next move is to break away from Xu Hongru's control, and after crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, he will bite Xu Hongru in turn.
Kangning's connection with the government is fundamentally different from that of Xu Hongru. Corning was one of the scholars, and his dealings with officials were based on like-mindedness. And Xu Hongru relied on gold and silver money to block the mouths of officials. This kind of connection should be weaker, and if there is a conflict in the future, the officials must be busy saving their lives first, rather than dare to take his money desperately.
So Corning has an advantage. And now Xu Hongru is not wary of him, teaching him the agricultural techniques he is familiar with, I am afraid that he is just blindly busy implementing his own set.
He is just not good at this problem, he always thinks that his set can cure all the diseases in the world, and he hopes that all people can learn his way.
It is undeniable that Xu Hongru's planting technology is indeed good, and even the old farmers cannot but praise it.
However, all the scholars and doctors who have some insight have now made it clear that agriculture is the foundation of the state. It's true that you can't ignore nature, but no one lives in the foundation.
This point, even he, Wang Sen, can understand, but it's a pity. His clever apprentice just couldn't read it. Hehe.
If it weren't for the fact that he Wang Sen was in a hurry to get rid of Kang Ning and grasp the power of Qingzhou Mansion to fight against the bloody storm that the imperial court was about to set off, maybe he would have been able to see it soon. Kang Ning raised the banner of the imperial court and began to oppose Xu Hongru with a clear banner, just as he was against himself.
Merely. Wang Sen always thought that Kang Ning had no intention of rebelling, even if he took a clear stand against him, he would just use it to deceive the trust of the government according to the plan formulated by the two of them at the beginning. If Kang Ning really wants to oppose Xu Hongru, I'm afraid he will fight him to the death. Who made Xu Hongru a man who was destined to rebel, a man who would do anything to implement his strange doctrines.
Wang Haoyi didn't know that his father's thoughts had drifted to Qingzhou Mansion with Wang Haoli who had gone away. He said on the side: "In fact, now, gold, silver, and wealth are not as effective as food. This year's drought in Beizhili, eastern province, has caused many families to become hungry. If we had enough food, we would be able to gather people more quickly. β
"Hey, we usually underestimate food, although you and your eldest brother are trading, but the main direction is not food. Today's stocks are finite and cannot be easily wasted on hungry people. The stone Buddha mouth in Luanzhou can be held for three or five years, and we must prepare sufficient food. β
"Father, you can't think like that."
"Why can't you think like that?"
"What we are going to do is to feed the enemy. Just tell the hungry people to break through the city guarded by the official army, and open a warehouse to put grain, so that they can eat enough. No city can withstand the tide of hunger. β
Wang Sen pondered for a while, and felt that what his son said also made some sense, so he agreed: "Then do it according to your wishes, but the grain in Shifokou's mouth must not be moved." β
"The child knows." Wang Haoyi's main purpose in coming here today is to get the right to recruit soldiers from his father. He knew that the members of the White Lotus Sect were all the people of the third brother Wang Haoxian, even if the Wang family was already in danger. His third brother will never give up his territory.
Therefore, in order to ensure his own safety, he must have a force that obeys his orders. But, as he himself said, he did not have enough food to recruit the brave, much less the time and means to train them. So he had to set his eyes on the hungry people and his father's warehouse.
Now that he has obtained his father's approval, he can rest assured and bold to do what he wants to do.
Looking at Wang Haoyi's figure of leaving in a hurry, Wang Sen suddenly figured out something. But he didn't want to continue to think about it, at this juncture related to the birthplace, even if his son had a strength of his own, it was not an unacceptable thing.
It's just that the son used this more tactful method, which was euphemistic to the point of deception.
"Hey." A sigh made Wang Sen's face even more old.
At this time, Wang Haoxian, the third son who went out to organize the sect, finally came back, Wang Sen hurriedly collected his mood, grabbed his hand and asked, "How is it?" β
Wang Haoxian didn't say anything, just lowered his head.
His expression frightened Wang Sen at once, could it be that the once brilliant control ability no longer existed?
Wang Sen's voice suddenly became stern: "What's the matter, you said it!" β
"Father." Wang Haoxian finally spoke, "Most of the members of my sect are in the east and north of the mountain. In these two places, the drought has been severe recently, and many families have failed to harvest grain......"
Wang Sen suddenly became clever, how could the words of the third son be so similar to the second son?
The second son defrauded a lot of grain and grass from his own hands. But why did the third son say that? He is his own successor, isn't the power in his hands enough?
Suddenly, Wang Sen's strength seemed to be drained. He sat softly on the Taishi's chair and said to Wang Haoxian: "Then exchange food for the allegiance of the hungry people." Priority was given to food distribution. Tell them that as long as they break the city of the official army, they will take whatever is inside. β
Wang Haoxian took a deep look at Wang Sen. Wang Sen's decision was consistent with his own suggestion, but he couldn't understand why Wang Sen's expression looked so haggard.
This haggard expression gave Wang Haoxian and the others a very bad premonition, could it be that in his father's heart, he already had no hope of success in this move?
Such an idea frightened Wang Haoxian himself. But this thought has always lingered.
Wang Haoxian slowly retreated, and another plan was already slowly emerging in his mind.
Wang Sen didn't know what his son was thinking, and he was already indifferent.
Suddenly, he summoned a subordinate and instructed him, "Go and find Gao Yingchen." β
"Gao Yingchen?" The subordinate glanced at Wang Sen suspiciously, and naturally Wang Sen's stern eyes were summoned.
The subordinate hurriedly rushed out, and after a while, another of Wang Sen's beloved disciples, Gao Yingchen, who had been advising Wang Sen to ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, walked in.
"Ying Chen, what you want me to do, I started to do. Now, I need your help. β
Gao Yingchen's eyes immediately lit up.
Subsequently, the master and apprentice began a secret discussion, and it was not until the early morning of the next day that Gao Yingchen left. (To be continued.) )
