Chapter 121: Sending Off
On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month of the third year of Shaoding, Zhao Zheng brought torture instruments and exiled to Meizhou, and there were many people who came to see him off. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info There are too many people in this world who want to know what he really thinks at the moment.
Three days were Chinese New Year's Eve, but he was exiled to Meizhou.
As the fuse of this incident, Zhang Tianshi's case has long spread all over the streets and alleys of Lin'an, just like today's fog, except for the people in the bureau, it has always been difficult for the people to find the intention behind Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Yun was wearing an imperial robe today, and he was still stunned until this moment, he didn't expect things to come to this point, although he didn't have the heart or lungs, he also felt the heaviness of Zhao Zheng's intentions.
"Why? I heard Ma Defang say that you want to be a benchmark for the world, and if there is evil, you will be punished, and the world will be bright...... But, is this necessary?
Zhao Zheng lowered his eyelids, looking a little listless about Zhao Yun's question, or a deep exhaustion, and the world didn't want to believe the explanation he gave.
"Yes."
Zhao Yun smiled to himself, looking at this young man who was only his chin high, and felt for the first time that his appearance had always been in an unbelievable way: "Can you tell me where you came from?" ”
"Does it matter? I'm your friend anyway. Official, I need your help. ”
This is the first time Zhao Zheng has begged him so solemnly, although Zhao Yun knew that Zhao Zheng said that the entrusted matter was very difficult, he still said without hesitation: "What's the matter?" ”
Zhao Zheng stood on tiptoe and whispered a few words in his ear, Zhao Yun was so stunned that his mouth didn't close, and he shivered because of the cool breeze.
"I'll trust you again!"
"No, you're going to trust me all the time, because I'm right every time, and this time is no exception."
"Sometimes I really feel that you are a person outside the world, so you have such a big rebellious idea, no, wild ideas."
"Goodbye, I'll tell you if there's anything new in Meizhou."
Zhao Yun smiled, didn't say goodbye to Zhao Zheng, turned around and left with Ma Defang: "Don't forget, I'm going to see the Moon Palace this year!" Write to me often. ”
After Zhao Yun said goodbye, the next thing was Huang Daochang and Da Lang, who had already put a burden on their backs.
Huang Daochang looked at Zhao Zheng, wanted to speak and stopped, but finally sighed, and just asked: "How far is Meizhou?" ”
"I'm sorry, Master." Zhao Zheng was apologetic, in the end, he couldn't let the master rest assured.
Huang Daochang laughed angrily: "Bastard boy, I'm sorry for you, can you go to Meizhou in late spring next year?" ”
Zhao Zheng nodded, and couldn't help but comfort: "Master, I will come back in two or three years, you don't have to worry, no one will dare to do anything to me on the road." Anyway, the official family is still on my side. ”
Da Lang took out the chicken leg wrapped in oiled paper from the package behind his back and handed it to Zhao Zheng: "Third brother, you can eat, don't worry, I will make you delicious food every day in the future." ”
Facing the young man, simple comfort, Zhao Zheng said: "Thank you, big brother!" ”
Huang Daochang pulled Da Lang away and said to Zhao Zheng: "There are still many people who want to talk to you, let's leave for a while." ”
"Where's the second brother?" Zhao Zheng asked suddenly.
"Babysitting!"
After the zodiac chief left, the next step was the two ministers.
Xuan Xuan was concerned at this time, and stepped forward to salute Zhao Zheng first, and Zhao Zheng accepted it calmly.
"Someone said before that the national teacher was a heavenly immortal, and I would definitely urge him, but now if anyone still says that the national teacher is not, I will also scoff at it. We mortals will not have a selfless person like you, and I sometimes think that the national teacher must have come to the world with the great wish of God in doing this. ”
Zhao Zheng was a little surprised: "Do you know my purpose? ”
"Yes!" The helplessness and pain in Xuan Xuan's voice were spoken by him, an old man in his sixties, and a sense of vicissitudes arose.
"If there is still a national teacher, he will be punished, let alone us officials? You are still being tortured for a day, and the curse on the heads of our officials is still being punished for a day. All the people are evil, and the Son of Heaven hates it. I believe that in the coming days, as long as there is the slightest mistake of our officials, they will be magnified countless times, and they will be shouted and killed. It's just a national teacher, is it all worth it? You don't have to be so aggressive. “
Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly: "You say that I am an immortal or a god, since I am rolling in this red dust, then I am naturally a human being, and naturally I also have seven emotions and six desires...... Also, Xuan Xianggong, if I don't do this, can the trend of not killing soldiers in the dynasty be changed? After doing this, I have no responsibility for the world anymore, and I should live for myself. ”
"We scholars study the scriptures of the ancestors, assist the king, and educate the people, without us, how can the world be governed? Why do you have to put us to death? ”
Zhao Zheng shook his head: "It's not to put literati to death, but to put wicked people to death, even if he is a literati." The dynasty has been tolerant for a hundred years, and it is just a swarm of moths, so what is the use of staying? ”
"When the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no disciples, this kind of truth will not be understood by the national teacher, right? And will the national teacher always stay in Meizhou and not come back? "Xuanxuan means that if you want to have a clean and clear society, it's a dream, and besides, can you stay in Meizhou forever? Once you come back, officialdom is afraid that it will return to normalcy as well.
"There are fish when the water is clear, and there are no disciples when people are observed, dare to ask Xuan Xianggong if you have any friends?"
Do I have any friends? Xuan Xuan was speechless when asked, only feeling a sense of sadness coming, how can there be friends in the officialdom, especially those like him who ride the wall repeatedly.
"The rest of you, I'm gone." Zhao Zheng saw that Chen Guicheng did not appear, so he was not interested, and decided to go on the road, and the team escorting Zhao Zheng was only twenty people, and the prisoners who were exiled to Meizhou accompanied him were as many as hundreds.
The people who came to see him off, some cried loudly, some were stunned, some were saddened, and so on, all of them were in different states, but all of them glared angrily at the ministers of the two governments.
The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and Zhao Zheng's thin back is the last face of the national teacher that the people of Lin'an have seen in the three years of Shaoding.
There are countless officials who came to see them off, many of them are also like knives at this moment, everything Zhao Zheng did is aimed at their civilian officials, their positions are different, they are destined to become enemies with the national teacher, but they also have respect for Zhao Zheng, and they are enemies of the people they admire, what a painful thing.
——
Baiyun Palace Erlang stayed behind. In the Yanwu Hall, on the round table, Gao Linmen sat in the chairman's position, Erlang sat on his side, and the captains of the dark guards of the Baiyun Palace and the leaders of the Heavenly Dao Army were seated.
At this moment, there is no such relaxed atmosphere in the Yanwu Hall as Zhao Zheng usually has, and the anger on Erlang's body makes people feel terrible at first glance.
"Now that Grandmaster Gao is coming to take over all the power of Baiyun Palace, who is in favor of it? Who is against? "Gao Linmen is the leader of the Heavenly Dao Army personally ordered by Zhao Zheng, and there is no reason to oppose it, while the secret guard has always been under the control of Zhao Zheng himself.
"The secret guard has always been under the control of the national teacher, and without his old man's words, I can't listen to the second master and Grandmaster Gao to make decisions!" Meng Liang, the leader of the Dark Guard, spoke.
Erlang's body suddenly moved, and a punch hit Meng Liang, Meng Liang was shocked, and he didn't move like a mountain.
Meng Liang and Erlang's fists docked in the air, the air exploded, and Meng Liang retreated with a punch. Erlang sneered: "You are not as good as me in terms of martial arts, if it weren't for the fact that you couldn't investigate the details of the Chen Mansion for a long time, how could my master and third brother be almost poisoned by that cheap woman?" What else qualifies you to sit in this position? For the sake of your hard work in Baiyun Palace, I will let you live, go to the treasury to receive 20,000 yuan, and find a place to be a rich man. ”
Meng Liang sat up from the ground, his expression was also silent and terrifying: "I am not capable enough, so naturally I don't dare to be cheeky to serve as the commander of the dark guard, but the second master, let me remind you that the secret guard is the secret guard of the national teacher, and he has never belonged to the White Cloud Palace." The national teacher wants to kill me, all I need is a handwritten letter, I have nothing else to say, if anyone else wants to use the secret guard, then they have to crawl over my corpse. ”
Erlang didn't get angry when he heard Meng Liang's words, the secret guard was the secret guard of the national teacher, and he never belonged to the Baiyun Palace, which undoubtedly moved him, and he took out a note from his arms and wrote: "Second Brother Xu is cheap!" ”
"This is written to me by the third brother, do you still have doubts?"
Meng Liang and Zhang Ji, the leader of the Heavenly Dao Army, confirmed that it was Zhao Zheng's handwriting, although they still had some doubts, according to the relationship between the national teacher and Erlang as brothers and sisters, they also acquiesced.
"With the handwriting of the national teacher, I, Meng Liang, am willing to admit the guilt, but I beg the second master to demote me to an ordinary agent, I have been integrated in the Baiyun Palace, and if I want to leave the Baiyun Palace, it is better to kill me."
Erlang nodded: "Yes!" ”
"I guess you know about Cheng Ji." Erlang said in a cold voice, Cheng Ji was the original Taoist priest of Honghu Palace, and was later included in the Baiyun Taoist Temple by Zhao Zheng, and then entered the Baiyun Palace. The first thing Jiro has to do is to straighten out the interior. In his opinion, the third brother is too merciful, and the sword of Baiyun Palace has never been raised to his own people, and now he is afraid that he will make an exception.
Cheng Ji was taken directly to Yanwutang, and in the face of everyone's angry eyes, he knelt down and begged for mercy: "Xiaodao is also greedy for the money of the thief and Taoist, so he will be confused, but he has no intention of harming Huang Zhenren, although Xiaodao is greedy for money, but he will not take revenge, and the human face and beast heart are ......."
Before he finished speaking, Erlang slowly walked over and wiped his neck with a knife, this was the first time this young man killed someone, but he was calm and terrifying: "He may not mean to harm Huang Zhenren, but the third brother wants to let the people of the world obey the rules, and I, the Baiyun Palace, naturally have to abide by the rules, and if I betray the Baiyun Palace, I am the mortal enemy of my Baiyun Palace, no matter how small the matter is, I will also hunt him down to the end in the Nine Heavens Yellow Spring!"
