ps: Thank you book friend chestnut fried rice, hjjggtujhfju for your monthly pass support. The new June is here, and I want to ask for the support of all book-chasing friends.

Li Cangxing sighed: "This Yang Tinghe is smart but is clever and mistaken, he can use this trick to threaten others, but Jiajing is a narrow-minded and extremely smart person, and there is a strong assistant like Lu Bing, Yang Tinghe's shady methods, I am afraid that Lu Bing has already inquired clearly, Lu Bing once mentioned this matter to me back then, and he must have reported it to Jiajing a long time ago, so Jiajing became extremely vigilant and hated these old ministers because of his gratitude for supporting him." ”

In the early years of Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing had a showdown with Yang Tinghe under the pretext of the Great Rites Discussion Incident, when Jiajing insisted on putting his biological father, the deceased King Xingxian as the emperor, into the Taimiao, and he was also called his father. But Yang Tinghe and other old ministers insisted on letting the emperor call his biological father uncle, and Emperor Zhengde's father, Emperor Xiaozong, called his father. Of course, Jiajing refused, so he made a big fuss, which was the famous Great Rites Discussion incident that year. ”

Qu Caifeng and Mu Lanxiang are women in the rivers and lakes after all, and they don't know much about these court affairs, and when they heard this, Mu Lanxiang frowned: "How can there be such a reason, you can't call your biological father father, but you have to call your uncle father, this is too ridiculous, Yang Tinghe even has to mess around like this, and he is called the first assistant of the cabinet in vain." ”

Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "How can things be so simple, this is not a question of recognizing your father, but a question of the legal inheritance of the throne, if you don't recognize the dead emperor Lao Tzu as your father, then you are just the identity of a prince's clan." It is impossible to inherit the unification, because the emperor has to sit in this position. You have to pass from King Xingxian to the name of Ming Xiaozong before you can be considered to have completed this step. ”

Qu Caifeng stuck out his tongue: "It's really troublesome." Where are there so many stinky rules? ”

Li Cangxing said with a straight face: "But even you know that although this matter is in line with the ancestral system, it is contrary to human ethics, so Jiajing is reasonable in this matter, and the cabinet ministers headed by Yang Tinghe overwhelmingly forced the emperor to recognize his uncle as his father, and Zhang Xuan, the new science and technology jinshi, saw that the emperor was isolated and helpless, and realized that the opportunity had come, so he stood on the emperor's side and challenged the head of the cabinet." This Zhang Zhang's political ability is not good, but he cites scriptures. Bo Gu Tongjin's skills are first-class, he is a typical nerd, and when it comes to etiquette, he refutes Yang Tinghe and others dumbfounded, angry, and suddenly reverses the decline of the emperor's father. ”

But Zhang Xuan was just a new scholar after all, although Yang Tinghe made concessions and agreed that Jiajing's mother, Princess Jiang could enter the harem as the queen mother. and demoted Zhang Xuan to Nanjing as an idle official. But in this round of confrontation, the emperor saw the hope of victory, and three years later, after his position was secured. Then he mentioned the matter of the great ceremony, and insisted on putting his father in the name of the emperor and the tablet into the temple. ”

This time, Yang Tinghe was no longer able to confront Jiajing head-on. Except for Zhang Xuan, who was transferred back to the capital, like Xia Yan. Powerful rising stars like Yan Song also stood on the emperor's side, and Yang Tinghe had no choice in the end. simply let his son Yang Shen take the lead, leading a group of middle-level officials from the six departments, almost half of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, three or four hundred people forced the palace to petition together, so that Emperor Jiajing could take back the order of the Great Rites, but Jiajing had the support of Lu Bing's brocade guard this time, and did not give in, and punished these officials with a court rod in the square outside the palace, beating them to cry and shout, Yang Tinghe realized that he was no longer the emperor's opponent, and the next day he wrote to ask the old man to return to his hometown. ”

Since then, the forces of the former dynasty led by Yang Tinghe have been completely defeated, Zhang Xuan and Xia Yan have successively ascended to the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, and Yan Song also stood on the side of the emperor this time, and has since been able to enter the cabinet, and after 30 years, he overthrew Xia Yan with treacherous tricks and completely became the prime minister of the empire.

The second daughter couldn't take her eyes off when she heard this, and when she heard this, Mu Lanxiang suddenly said: "That Yang Tinghe's son Yang Shen is the talented man that Sister Qu said, is he also heavily responsible in this incident and demoted to Yunnan?" ”

Li Cangxing said with a smile: "Yes, it is this person, Yang Shen back then, is a famous genius in the world, can compose poetry at the age of eleven, at the age of twenty-four he is a high school champion, entered the Hanlin Academy as a bachelor, after Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, he served as the emperor's scripture lecturer, for his lectures on the scriptures and righteousness, the future is unlimited, but because of the Great Rites Discussion incident, the emperor was confronted, the first day of the court staff killed sixteen officials, the next day he dragged the injured body again to the front of the hall to cry dead companions, as a result, Long Yan was furious, he was immediately dismissed, Driven out of the capital and relegated to Yunnan Yongchang Wei Chongjun. ”

Qu Caifeng nodded: "Yes, when Yang Tinghe was the first assistant, he had suppressed the Jinyi Guard, and found some excuses for the old Jinyi Guard, and cut them for the people, these people hated the Yang father and son, I heard that the Yang father and son were unlucky, and they were ready to intercept and kill on the road to retaliate, although Yang Tinghe went home, but after all, he was the first assistant, and there were many guards, they were not easy to start, but Yang Shen was a guilty body, only two or three guards followed, and it was much easier to attack him, so these people planned it, Prepare to intercept and kill halfway, so that Yang Tinghe can taste the pain of losing his son. ”

Li Cangxing sneered: "Yang Tinghe has also done countless bad things, when he was afraid that assassins would assassinate my innocent mother and son, did you ever think that there would be such a day?" Caifeng, did Yang Tinghe find your master to help save his son later? ”

Qu Caifeng smiled slightly: "That's right, Yang Tinghe made preparations before the big ceremony, and secretly invited my master to the capital in advance, and after the defeat, I asked my master to cover Yang Shen and protect him all the way to Yunnan safely." My master's trip can be regarded as nine deaths, along the way through seventeen assassinations, more than 20 old brothers who followed my master's family died in battle, only then Yang Shen was sent to Yunnan safely, and my master was also seriously injured for this, and it took a whole year to recover, and since then he has left the root of internal injuries. ”

Mu Lanxiang sighed: "I can't imagine that there are so many thrilling past events in the middle, it seems that the court is like a battlefield, just like the rivers and lakes, it is the same sword and sword, and every step is terrifying." ”

Li Cangxing's heart moved, and he said in a deep voice: "Caifeng." You said that the relationship between Leng Tianxiong and Yan Song was the leader of Yang Shen. What's going on here? ”

Qu Caifeng's eyes flashed: "I should have told you about this a long time ago, but I was negligent." That Yan Song used to be Yang Tinghe's protégé, although he helped the emperor when he saw the situation during the Great Rites Meeting, but he was still the only cronie who stayed in the court after Yang Tinghe left, when he was in the cabinet, he had no power and no power, and it was also because of Yang Tinghe's power that he had the capital to get along with Xia Yan, Yang Shen and Yan Shifan were friends since childhood, Leng Tianxiong was introduced by Yang Shen back then, and he caught up with Yan Song's father and son, who were already powerful in the court. ”

Li Cangxing gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect this Yang Shen to be friends with Yan Shifan. As the son of Shoufu and the talent of the champion, does he not defend loyalty and treachery like this? ”

Qu Caifeng sighed: "Cangxing, didn't you just grit your teeth and say that these important ministers only care about themselves, don't care about the country, and don't ask about loyalty and traitors, why are you so excited at this time?" ”

Li Cangxing said hatefully: "These people are full of talent and full of poetry and books, if it weren't for their selfishness. If you can be loyal to the country, you are a pillar of talent, but for the sake of your own selfish interests, you ignore national affairs. Yang Ting and this person, if it is limited to Huayi Dafang, my father and emperor are not allowed to marry my mother. It makes some sense, but the emperor is not allowed to recognize his biological father as his father. This doesn't work anywhere, he has only one purpose. It is to establish his authority in front of the emperor, to play the emperor in the palm of his hand, and to be able to continue to be in power. ”

Mulan Xiangqi said: "Senior brother, haven't you always hated the current emperor, isn't it good to have a powerful minister to restrain him?" ”

Li Cangxing sighed: "The current emperor is smart and clever, full of poetry and books, otherwise it would be impossible to stand out among the princes of the clan. This mouth is only afraid that he is looking for it from Yang Tinghe, he wants to make the monarch have real power and play with power, so he forced the emperor to be wary of all ministers, while pursuing the way of immortality, while instigating the courtiers to fight each other, knowing that the Yan Party is corrupt, but he thinks that the Yan Party only needs money and power, and has no political ambitions, which has caused the state to decay to this point and suffered the people of the world. ”

Qu Caifeng snorted heavily: "Cangxing, from the emperor to the minister, there is no good thing, let's take revenge and don't care about their messy things, let's walk the rivers and lakes, happy and revenge, and be at ease, isn't it a race against the living immortals?" ”

Mu Lanxiang also followed and said: "Yes, senior brother, after we eliminate the Demon Sect, the rivers and lakes should also be calm, and then we will retire to the rivers and lakes and live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes, and don't have to worry about these things anymore, okay?" ”

Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "The heroes of the world are out of my generation, once they enter the rivers and lakes, it is easy to enter the rivers and lakes, but it is difficult to quit, after so many years, we all have our own group of life and death brothers, and we have our own sects, how can we retreat if we want to?" Caifeng, junior sister, can you leave the current Wushan faction brothers, or the Wudang faction brothers, and completely ignore the affairs of the rivers and lakes? ”

The second girl opened her mouth and closed it again, obviously this could not be done.

Li Cangxing said with a smile: "That's it, at this point in our day, it is impossible to retreat, the greater the so-called ability, the greater the responsibility, we should think of using our own ability to benefit more talents." ”

Qu Caifeng's eyebrows frowned: "Cangxing, what do you mean by this, after taking revenge, do you still think that the soldiers have seized the throne?" ”

Li Cangxing shook his head: "No, I don't have this plan, if the emperor doesn't come to help Yan Shifan provoke me, I have no intention of raising troops to seize the throne, although that position should belong to me, but I also know that as long as the soldiers are together, then the world will be full of blood, and all kinds of heroes who want to seize the throne will follow and want to end, I don't know how many years of war it will take." ”

Mu Lanxiang let out a sigh: "Senior brother, but, but what if the faint monarch wants to take the initiative to attack us like he did last time he besieged Wushan, or like he did this time when he besieged Southern Shaolin?" The identity of you, the prince, is afraid that it will not be possible to keep it secret forever, and with the ruthlessness of the faint king, if you know, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not be poisoned. ”

Qu Caifeng said coldly: "Cangxing, Sister Mu is right, it's not that if you don't make a move, you can be safe, if Yan Shifan is really in collusion with that Wudang inner ghost, and your life experience, that inner ghost is clear, he will sue Yan Shifan sooner or later, when the time comes, the emperor is only afraid that you can't tolerate it, you just want to drive your Black Dragon Club rudder safely, but I'm afraid it's also unavoidable." ”

Li Cangxing said calmly: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, if you really kill it, of course you can't sit still, it's nothing more than taking out the bag, cooperating with the black robe, and fighting hard." But now, we haven't reached this point yet, so let's find out the identity of the inner ghost before we take care of it. ”

Qu Caifeng's beautiful big eyes were full of light: "Cangxing, I have a hunch, when you find out the identity of the inner ghost, it is also the time when he jumps over the wall in a hurry and breaks off with you, this thief will never have anything to do with you, and will definitely find a way to use the power of the imperial court, you must be fully prepared, otherwise, the tragedy of the destruction of the helm of my Wushan faction may be repeated." ”

Li Cangxing gritted his teeth: "I understand what you mean, but I still need a certain amount of time, this time is different from the past, the imperial court does not have a strong army in the southeast, and it is impossible to destroy us lightly, and now the general Qi Jiguang Qi, the general soldier of Zhejiang in the southeast, and I am already a brother who shares life and death, although I have never told him my identity, but I think that if the thief instigates the emperor to send troops to fight us, General Qi will also stop the crusading army of the imperial court this time, at least, he will also give me a message to prepare." ”

Mu Lanxiang's brows softened: "Senior brother, you are really capable, there are so many loyal brothers, even General Qi has such a good relationship with you, I really don't know how you did it, it's just, it's just that this time you entered Miao Jiang alone, what do you say to them?" ”

Li Cangxing pondered for a while, and said: "I have already planned about this matter, the Black Dragon Society is newly established, and the overseas trade in the southeast still needs to be rebuilt, it stands to reason that I should sit in the southeast at this time and command these things, but now the trip to Miao Jiang cannot be delayed any longer, it may be too late for the inner ghost to destroy the clues, and it will be more difficult to investigate it than to ascend to the sky, so I still have to let Liu Sheng pretend that I am here, and the others have their own duties, as long as I can come back from Miao Jiang this time, I hope to see that the Black Dragon Society has taken shape." ”

Qu Caifeng said with a smile: "Then what did you promise me, that is, the thing that let me take root in Tiantai Mountain, you and I are not here, who will my subordinates find to do?" (To be continued......) R1292
