Chapter Twenty-Seven: Set up an altar to worship the sky, Chengdu is in chaos
On the fifth watch, the warriors handed over the account book to Li Yan, and then Li Yan immediately sent his henchmen to check the contents of the account book and find out about the weapons, money, and food in the Chengdu treasury in recent years.
The next day, when the little guy in Wang Zhaoyuan's house went to feed the "general", he found that it had died in a cage, and the little guy hurriedly told the housekeeper what happened. After the housekeeper Wang Asan arrived, he found that the Tibetan mastiff died very strangely, according to him, it had black blood at the corner of its mouth, and there was white foam in its mouth, which was a symptom of poisoning and poisoning, who was it that poisoned Wang Zhaoyuan's "general"? The housekeeper Wang Asan didn't know.
And at this time, someone in the house suddenly found that the little servant Wang Shouli was gone. Wang Shouli's disappearance may be related to the death of the "great general", and the top priority is to find Wang Shouli.
Wang Asan hurriedly asked the servants and maids in the palace to look for the little servant Wang Shouli everywhere in the house, but he couldn't find it after looking for a day.
A dog died in the house and a person was missing, Wang Asan realized that something was wrong, so he immediately sent someone to report to the official.
……
In the Chengdu Mansion Office, the officials also found several corpses lying at the door, and the door of the treasury where the account books and other valuables in the house were stored was pried open.
After the crown prince Meng Xuanzhe learned that the account books were missing, he immediately asked Kaifeng Mansion Yin to investigate the matter.
When several officials who remained in Kaifeng learned that the account books were missing, some of them were alarmed.
After learning that the account books were missing, he immediately felt that things were not good, after all, what was missing was the account books of weapons and weapons, and there were also records in the account books about his private buying and selling of weapons and armor.
Therefore, he immediately wrote a letter to Qingcheng Mountain to tell Wang Zhaoyuan, and at the same time contacted several lower-level officials who were closely related to Wang Zhaoyuan to calculate the gains and losses in the mansion. And this incident really happened when the emperor went to Qingcheng Mountain, and it was indeed very strange. The loss of the account books made a group of people restless and unable to sleep and eat.
There were too many stolen account books, Li Yan found the bookkeepers of several restaurants in the city, and took turns to check the accounts, hoping to find a lot of evidence that Wang Zhaoyuan bought and sold armor and weapons.
And one of the bookkeepers is Qin Xi, last night he learned from the Changchun Hall spy that Li Yan stole the account books, this morning when Li Yan came to the door, invited him to come to the house to be a bookkeeper, he immediately agreed, and at the same time asked Zhang Hui to temporarily help him manage the restaurant.
Qin Xi and the other three bookkeepers were blindfolded when they got into the car, and at the same time, Li Yan told them that once the accounts were cleared, they would let them go, and the three of them nodded.
The carriage of the Li Mansion started, and a few Changchun Hall warriors who were not far away followed quietly, and when Li Yan arrived at the Li Mansion, the three of them were taken to a secret room. Then Li Yan untied their covers, only to see a table full of account books.
Qin Xi smiled bitterly, the other two were similar, and after Li Yan gave the order, let them start checking the accounts immediately.
The three of them sat down, picked up the account book and began to check the accounts......
In order to let them check their accounts with peace of mind, Li Yan specially instructed his subordinates to serve tea and food.
……
The next day, the Chung Yeung Festival on the ninth day of the ninth month of September, is the day when an altar is set up to worship the heavens and the 3,600 percent Luo Tian Da Jiao ceremony is established.
When the emperor and the important ministers of civil and military affairs rose up, there were already Taoist priests who prepared fragrant soup for them.
In the open space outside the Shangqing Palace, someone prepared all the gifts for the heavens early.
There are many Taoists in the Shangqing Palace, ringing bells and drums, incense lanterns and candles, banners and treasure covers, a group of fairy music.
The golden bell rings on the Sanqing Palace, and the Taoist priest steps empty.
When the time came, the sky was bright, and after Meng Chang and the important ministers had eaten fast and breakfast, they came to the place where the altar was set up to worship the sky.
Wu Yongzi is wearing the Taoist robe and accessories given by Meng Chang today, he is wearing a free scarf, his face is white, the short beard of his chin is combed neatly, he is wearing a dark Taoist robe, his waist is wrapped in a yellow dragon and tiger belt, and his right hand holds the magic sword given by the emperor, which is made of dark iron, his feet are wrapped in white socks, and his feet are cloudy and vermilion, looking like an immortal.
Wuyongzi took the emperor's edict, and then stepped on the altar, chanting: "Shuzhong is drought and hungry, I pity the people, and specially invite the heavenly master to help the disciple of Wuyongzi to hold the imperial book Danzhao, personally serve the dragon incense, and make 3,600 Luo Tianda Jiao in the Qing Palace on Qingcheng Mountain, so as to relieve the people of the ...... with natural disasters."
After reading the edict, Wu Yongzi began to take the stage, he stepped on the soles of his feet, his clothes also swung with the movements, the sword in his hand dipped in yellow phosphorus, and then the sword slashed on the candle flame, only to see a burst of fireworks.
Wu Yongzi waved his sword and whispered in his mouth: "Supreme Taiyi saves the suffering Tianzun......"
He pointed his sword at the sky, then rolled up his huge cuffs and swung it with all his might, extinguishing all the flames on the candlestick.
At this moment, the wind and clouds suddenly changed between heaven and earth, dark clouds were thick, the wind was blowing, all the flags on the altar were blown down by the strong wind, and the Taoist robe of Wuyongzi on the altar was blown up by the wind and covered his face. On the altar field, Meng Chang, the ministers, and the Taoist priests were all blown by the strong wind and couldn't open their eyes.
And the dark clouds gathered more and more, and suddenly the sky and the earth were dark, and everyone could not see the light in front of them all at once.
A moment later, the clouds drifted in all directions. And there is barely a glimmer of light between heaven and earth.
"Back to Your Majesty, Daoist Wuyongzi has already completed the three thousand six hundred points of Luo Tian Dajiao, and the heavy rain is coming, please Your Majesty, all the ministers, and Daoist friends to enter the palace quickly." Li Hao said.
Meng Chang took Mrs. Hua Rui's arm and hurriedly ran to the Sanqing Palace, while the other ministers and Taoist priests also went to the Sanqing Palace.
As Wu Yongzi expected, the heavy rain came in an instant, and the heavy rain hit the ground like a hammer, and the heat of the past few days was completely unexperienced, and the air was filled with a hot air, and then gradually dissipated.
Everyone was in the Sanqing Palace, watching the rain of Qingcheng Mountain. Meng Chang hurriedly took Wu Yongzi's hand and said: "The Taoist is worthy of the mantle of Master Fuyaozi, today he has brought Ganlin to my Great Shu Kingdom, and today I want to make the Taoist chief a national teacher." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, it's just that Your Majesty should be rewarded by my master, who taught me to go down the mountain to Shu to rob the people."
"Okay, good, the Taoist is really modest, I gave Master Fuyaozi the title of 'Qingcheng Changzhenren', and the Taoist Chang as the 'Sanqing Zhenren', and at the same time he was named the Heavenly Master of Shu."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." There is no Yongzi to bow down.
In Chengdu Fuzhong, it also rained heavily, and the water level of the river in the city suddenly soared, and all the pedestrians on the road took refuge in their houses.
"It's fucking raining." Zhang Hui was following on the street, and suddenly the heavy rain came, he immediately lifted the hem of his clothes, rolled up his sleeves, and hurriedly ran to the restaurant.
"Ahh
Zhang Hui looked at the heavy rain outside the restaurant, and thought eagerly, I don't know what happened to the Shu Navy outside the city, tonight they plan to blow up some of the boats that can't be transported, and at present, the rainstorm is coming, the river is rising, this is very mixed, and I don't know if the action is dangerous.
"Stay until autumn comes, September 'nine'. After my flowers bloom, a hundred flowers are killed, and the fragrance of the sky is full of 'Chengdu', and the city is full of golden armor. Zhang Hui chanted, "Those gunpowder jars are all placed—"
And the people in Shu saw this rain coming down and cheered......
Two hours later, the rain finally stopped.
And Meng Chang and other ministers planned to stay in the Qingcheng Mountain Taoist Temple for another three or five days before returning to Beijing.
Wu Yongzi changed out of the imperial robe, put on an ordinary robe, and then went to the outside of the hall with An Deyu and An Dongye.
"It smells so cool, I didn't expect it to rain today, I don't know how Chengdu is doing tonight?" Wu Yongzi sighed in a low voice.
"Master, don't worry, by the way, Master, when will we leave for Chengdu?"
"The three of us will stay with Meng Chang for another three or five days, and then we will go back together." Wu Yongzi whispered, "By the way, I have worked hard for the two of you, and I want you two to continue to pretend to be little Taoist priests by my side." ”
"Okay!" The two replied helplessly.
……
At this moment in Chengdu, when night fell, Zhang Hui temporarily let one person take care of the Xiaobaihua Restaurant, and at this time, several people dressed as businessmen entered the secret room.
"Zhang Tuanlian, how are you doing over there?"
"Our men have already placed gunpowder jars in various important places, just waiting to ignite them tonight."
"Okay, tonight you send some people to ignite the gunpowder jar, be sure to cause panic among the soldiers and civilians in the city, and when the army is rushing to the city, our pair of men and horses will go out of the city and inform the others to destroy the ships of the Shu navy."
"Hmm, what a move."
On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, in the middle of the night, in the silence of the night, the men and horses sent by Zhang Hui had already rushed to the place where the gunpowder jars had been secretly buried in the past few days.
"Boom-" Like a thunderclap, the entire city of the sleeping eunuchs suddenly felt that the houses shook.
"It's an earthquake—" Some people ran to the open space outside their houses without even putting on their clothes, and at this time, suddenly another thunderclap sounded.
"Boom—" The ground shook again.
At this time, when the patrol army in the city passed through the Chengdu Mansion, a figure suddenly popped out, and after a while, the gate of the Chengdu Mansion suddenly collapsed, and the soldiers near the door of the surrounding patrolling army were also blown up by gunpowder.
The soldiers were dead and wounded, and the soldiers who were frightened by the sudden situation did not know the situation, and the survivors rushed to the East Palace to report.
After hearing the situation, Meng Xuanzhe, the prince of the East Palace Supervisor, immediately frowned, and at this time, other things such as a big hole suddenly appeared in the city wall, and a large number of the houses of the Imperial Horse Supervisor collapsed in an instant, and the gate of Wang Zhaoyuan's mansion in the city collapsed, and Li Hao's mansion was also ......
Meng Xuanzhe is also very strange, why after his father left Chengdu, a series of disasters struck, and tonight he just fell asleep, and was suddenly woken up by a sound of "thunder", accompanied by a shaking of the house, let the inner servants out of the palace, the report was not thunder, and after a while, other inner servants came to report.
"Your Highness, the prince washes his horse and asks to see you."
After Shang Buqi entered the palace, he cried and said: "Your Highness is the master for me, the gate of my house has been destroyed by the young people. ”
"What? You're talking about someone destroying your home. ”
"Yes, Your Highness. This is also the case in other parts of the city tonight, please arrange for your highness to enter the city to arrest the gangsters and maintain law and order in the city. ”
"Okay, you ask the squire of the military department to immediately send troops into the city."
An hour later, the squire of the military department urgently dispatched a large army from outside the city into the city with the edict of the prince of the prison state.
The warriors of Changchun Hall, who had been waiting outside the city for a long time, were in urgent need of an order, and when they saw the mobilization of the army, they hurriedly went to Pijiang, Jinjiang and other places to destroy the ships......
In the middle of the night, there were a few "booms", and above the river, the hull of the ship burst out, the cabin was flooded, broken into pieces of wood, and the fire was soaring into the sky......
