Chapter 985: Changes in Shanxi (Medium)
Yang Chengzu was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Over there in Shanxi, there is no news from Jinyiwei, but no news does not mean that it is good news." Long live the matter of smelling the incense sect, it is a religion run by our imperial court, and it has developed well everywhere, but when it comes to the development of Shanxi, it is very problematic, or rather, it cannot be passed on at all. There are some more important sects, but there is no news when they arrive in Shanxi, if the minister expects it to be true, most likely there is another more stubborn sect force over there, and it may be where the main altar is located. They are rejecting the entry of foreign forces, so the Smelling Fragrance Sect can't intervene. This kind of important news, Shanxi's Jinyi did not report it to Jingli, this matter is very abnormal. The minister originally thought that when he would take care of the affairs in Beijing, he would go to Shanxi to take a walk and see what was going on, but he didn't expect Banzai to move and ask, could it be that something happened over there? ”
After Jiajing listened to his report, he didn't answer this question, but continued to ask: "Big brother thinks, if there is any sect over there, is it possible that the main altar of the White Lotus Demon Sect is located?" ”
The helm of the White Lotus Sect has always been a mystery, and their preaching is mostly carried out among the people, and occasionally it can spread to the upper echelons. Even in the Ming Dynasty, believing in the White Lotus Sect itself did not necessarily mean breaking the law, it could change its name at any time, such as Maitreya and the like, which were all variants of the White Lotus Sect. The imperial court can only stipulate that the White Lotus Sect is illegal, but it cannot stipulate that these emerging sects are illegal, and in most cases, there is nothing that can be done.
At the private level, Jinyiwei and the White Lotus Sect have also fought each other, you kill some of my grassroots figures, I arrest some of your disciples, and there is friction between each other from time to time, but no one can contact each other's high-level leaders. Where the helm of the White Lotus Sect is, no one can figure it out.
Although Leng Feishuang sold all the details of the White Lotus Sect to Yang Chengzu, considering that her identity itself was not suitable for Banzai to fully grasp, and his father-in-law was involved here, Yang Chengzu did not play the information about the White Lotus Sect. He used Hao Yunlong's incense smelling religion as a tool to spread among the people, and it was also a means of temptation.
The Wenxiang Sect was born from the White Lotus, and the White Lotus Sect competed for the disciples, and the competition was very strong. Wherever it can't be transmitted, it may be an important stronghold of the White Lotus Sect, and through this method of reverse scrutiny, even if there is no information about Leng Feishuang, he has almost listed Shanxi as the hardest hit area.
But at that time, he was still the head of the Fusi Division in Nanzhen, and he couldn't manage this problem, and later worked in the southeast, and now he has just taken charge of the factory and health work, and the focus of his work has been moved to Shanxi, and he can't produce results in a short time. When the emperor asked, he couldn't get any hard evidence from the part of the information that Jinyiwei could see, so he could only rely on his own analysis to speak.
"General altar, this possibility, I can't say that there is no such possibility, but the minister can't be sure. Demon Sect, their main altar was first in the south, and later in Shandong, where it is now, no one can say. When the minister killed the Japanese in the southeast, he knew that many people in the southeast were religious people, but they also chanted scriptures and performed rituals, so they might not really follow to rebel. The situation in Shanxi is still not clear, there are thousands of households in that place, some of them are old ministers left before, and some of them are through some connections, and I am not familiar with them. You have to sort things out over there before you can know the real answer, and now at most, that is, guess. ”
"If you guess, you have to guess, because this time someone pointed out that Zhang Yin, the commander of Taiyuan Wei, is Li Fuda, the leader of the White Lotus Sect. If what that person said is true, I'm afraid that Wu Dinghou will be in some trouble. ”
Jiajing was blunt, and handed Ma Lu's recital to Yang Chengzu to see, "Guo Xun has the ten battalions of the new army in his hands. Those people are trained according to the eldest brother's military training method, and you know the combat effectiveness in your heart. If they are really the demons of the White Lotus Sect, once they find an opportunity to rebel in Shanxi, I can't even calculate how many people they have to dispatch to eat these ten battalions of chaotic army. Ma Lu suggested in the memo that Zhang Yin be arrested immediately, and he should be handed over to the three law divisions in Beijing for trial, and at the same time, Guo Xun should be dismissed pending investigation, and the ten battalions of the new army should also be screened, so as to prevent demonic demons from mixing in and endangering the imperial court. ”
These measures cannot be said to be wrong, if it is a different person, Yang Chengzu may also have to propose a similar plan, Jiajing asked his opinion, but also considering that after all, there is Yang Chengzu's father-in-law among the parties. If this matter is implemented in the future, Guo Xun's situation will not be very good, and there may be bigger problems.
Guo Xun is a very good person, and like Xue Liang, he made friends with famous people in Beijing, and his relationship with literati was not bad. In the incident of arresting Jiang Bin, he can be regarded as having made great contributions, and his personal relationship with Yang Tinghe is also okay.
However, the development of Yang Ji and his relationship with Yang Chengzu's son-in-law made him gradually become a thorn in the side of the Shi family and some forces in the court. Everyone just didn't find a reliable handle, and they couldn't help him. If you chase and fight hard this time with the problem of Tong Bailian, it will be more difficult to protect Guo Xun.
Yang Chengzu thought for a while, "Long live, the minister doesn't dare to guarantee Guo Xun's innocence now, but the minister feels that there are a few doubts." In this compromise, it was said that Li Fuda had an enemy Xue Liang, he knew Li Fuda, and found a few people to come out, and also said that he had seen Li Fuda himself. How can I say this kind of thing, there are too few witnesses. If someone wants to do it now, they can find out hundreds of homeless people and say that the minister is disguised by Li Fuda, how can this matter be explained clearly. Moreover, Zhang Yin can be a commander, and things such as procedures must be complete, and the minister thinks that Zhang Yin's confession and resume can definitely be found in the military department, and these things are not good to fake. Therefore, the minister can't guarantee that Zhang Yin is not Li Fuda, and he can't guarantee that Zhang Yin is Li Fuda. ”
Jiajing also nodded, he also held this view at the morning court meeting, and he couldn't say that a few people would denounce him, so he really arrested a court general. However, Yang Tinghe's cabinet took the lead in standing up for Ma Lu, believing that this matter was very important, and it was necessary to deport people to Beijing and investigate carefully, so as not to let go of the rebellious ministers and thieves. Fortunately, Yang Chengzu did not go to court today, otherwise, I am afraid that the firepower will come to him, and the scene will be very passive.
"Big brother, Yang Tinghe this time, it can be seen that he is coming for you, or rather, he is coming for the new army. Attacking Guo Xun is just an introduction, the real purpose is to use this to drag you into the water and clean you up together. If the case is handed over to the three legal divisions, the outcome of the trial will not be too beneficial to you. The new army was set up by you, and as soon as you fall, in the five battalions of the new army, they will definitely mix sand, and the people and horses that have been finally raised will be dispersed. We are a family, the new army, and it is also the brainchild of my own hand, we can't let them be ruined like this, you can tell me, is there any way to solve this matter? Is this person arrested, or not? ”
Yang Chengzu thought for a while, "Your Majesty, the minister has an opinion, I don't know what you think." ”
