Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Heavenly Master Seeks the Ball
Zhu Youzhen wanted to make some achievements to show the emperor's brother, and when he heard that something had happened to Jingxi Huangzhuang, he was so anxious that he was about to set off immediately. Zhu Cheng saw that it was still early, and he should be able to reach Jingxi Huangzhuang at four o'clock in the afternoon (now at 4 o'clock in the afternoon), so he had no objection.
However, although Feng Menglong woke up, his injuries were still very serious and he was not suitable to move, so he left him in the children's paradise to recuperate and let Hou Huiqing take care of him. Although Feng Menglong looked gloomy, saying that it was really unlucky that he couldn't go back together, but the happiness that he couldn't hide betrayed him, and he was afraid that his heart was so beautiful that snot bubbles were coming out now.
After a good while, when he was about to set the car out, a masked man with a bag like an Arab sneaked in, and the guards would not let him go and take it on the spot.
Wu Huping tore off his face towel and saw that it was Ruan Dacheng.
Zhu Cheng motioned for the guards to let him go, and said with a smile: "Why is Mr. Ruan dressed like this?" â
Ruan Dacheng said: "You are now the number one enemy of the Donglin Party, I don't dress up like this, dare to come to see you?" This time I came to give you the script, and "Du Shi Niang's Angry Sinking Treasure Chest" has been written. â
Zhu Cheng took the manuscript, turned the first page, and saw that the author's signature was Zhu Cheng, knowing that Ruan Dacheng did not dare to openly break with the Donglin Party, he smiled slightly and said, "Thank you so much." â
Ruan Dacheng pulled on his mask and sneakily went out.
Zhu Cheng sighed lightly: "When will you be able to walk with dignity, when will your road be wide." â
Wu Huping raised his whip, the horses neighed, and pulled the carriage away briskly.
Wei Honglian waited until the shadow of the carriage was no longer visible, then wiped her eyes with her hand, and turned back to the house.
A spy from the Donglin Party has been keeping an eye at the door of the children's paradise, and when he saw the carriage leaving the city, he returned to Gao Panlong.
Gu Dazhang said: "Senior brother, will you just let Zhu Cheng go?" â
Gao Panlong touched his forehead, which was wrapped in a thick bandage, and then looked at Gu Dazhang, who was bandaged like an Indian Ah San, and said, "Then what else?" â
Zuo Guangdou said: "Brother Gao, Brother Gu, have we shifted the direction of the struggle a little?" Zhu Cheng is just a thousand households of Jinyiwei, no matter how favored he is, he is just a courtier. Besides, now that he has been assigned to Jingxi Huangzhuang, he can't influence the court's decision-making, so why bother with him? â
Gao Panlong suddenly woke up and said, "That's right." But what bastard brought this little bastard - uh, a kid â back to the capital? â
Yang Lian said: "The three dukes, thirteen marquises, and eleven earls, because of the matter of the red plum thief, want this stinky boy to return to Beijing to confront him." â
Gao Panlong said again: "Then how did we get on the bar with him?" â
Zuo Guangdou said: "Because Li Sancai's son Li Wentong was ruthlessly repaired by Zhu Cheng." â
Gao Panlong said: "The culprit has been found, it is Li Wentong." Let Li Sancai eat old rice at home, it's really a cheat to give birth to such a bad son. â
Gu Dazhang said: "Senior brother, I'm afraid I have to suppress my anger, because Li Sancai is the most military knowledgeable among us, and except for him, no one in the Donglin Party can take on this heavy responsibility." â
Zuo Guangdou said: "I'm a little worried about that masked man, he rushed to visit Zhu Cheng before he left the city, and I don't know what the hell he wanted." Brother, have your spies found out who that person's surname is and where he lives? â
Gao Panlong said: "Don't mention it, that spy is a dead brain, he doesn't know how to improvise, he just stares at Zhu Cheng, and he doesn't pay attention to the masked man at all." â
Zhu Cheng didn't know that the Donglin Party had stopped pointing the finger at him, and they were no longer chasing after him. But he didn't care, because except for a few Donglin Party members, they were all empty talkers who misled the country. If it weren't for "the sound of the wind, the rain, the sound of reading, the sound of the ear; Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, everything cares", the Donglin Party can be said to have made no contribution to history.
What he is concerned about now is what happened to Jingxi Huangzhuang, so he asked Gao Qiqian to send someone to the capital to ask for help.
When I arrived at Huangzhuang, I saw Gao Qiqian standing on the wall of the courtyard and looking out.
As soon as the car stopped, Gao Qiqian pounced and said, "Master Zhu, disaster, disaster." â
Zhu Cheng said: "Don't worry, speak slowly." â
Gao Qiqian said: "On the second night after Lord Zhu left, ghosts appeared in many places in Jingxi Huangzhuang. These ghosts have become ferocious and abnormal. Xiao Dingzi, the fourth or fifth son of the tenant Gao, was only five years old, and was pushed into the ditch by a ghost, and everyone could not rescue him, so he drowned. Tenant Yang Lao Wu was hanged by ghosts on the beams of the main house, and his wife Yang Shen was raped by ghosts. As for the tenants who were injured by the demons and were frightened, there were even more. A rumor slowly began to circulate among the tenants, saying that the house we were building in Jingxi Huangzhuang was too yin, and it attracted a hundred ghosts to surround the village. Only by demolishing the houses in Jingxi Huangzhuang can the ghosts be driven away. â
Zhu Cheng was so angry that he slapped the carriage and said, "This must be the sin created by those lords." The Emperor has ordered the Lord to return the land he occupies, and they are unwilling to spread rumors in a vain attempt to drive us away. â
Zhu Youzhen said: "It's not so easy to drive us away. â
Gao Qiqian said: "If it's just a rumor, it's nothing. The tenants were terrified and began to petition us to demolish the houses we had just built. At first, he just knelt at the door, or shouted slogans. But since yesterday, some young and strong tenants have begun to storm the Imperial Village. â
Chen Guoqi said: "Yes, Lord Zhu. If I hadn't ordered the bow to be fired, Jingxi Huangzhuang would have been out of order yesterday. My lord, I am guilty of firing an arrow yesterday and wounding two people. â
After speaking, Chen Guoqi knelt down and pleaded guilty.
Zhu Cheng said: "You are Jinyiwei, this is Jinyiwei's camp, attacking the barracks, and you are innocent." Chen Guoqi, you did the right thing. We Jinyiwei don't have the habit of not fighting back and scolding. If someone gives me a punch, I will definitely kick it back. â
Zhu Cheng looked at Chen Guoqi, and now Chen Guoqi's head seemed to be a lot more, bulging high, his face was also full of scars, and his nose was blue and his face was swollen. Zhu Cheng touched Chen Guoqi's head, where was there too many heads, it was clearly a big bag.
Zhu Cheng's face turned cold and asked, "Stand up, what's going on?" â
Chen Guoqi said: "It's not those ordinary people, they see that we don't open the door, so they throw stones inside. â
Zhu Cheng wanted to pat Chen Guoqi's shoulder to show comfort, but he found that he was too short to shoot, so he patted him on the back and comforted him warmly: "Chen Guoqi, you have worked hard, today I will promote you to a hundred households in Jinyiwei." â
At this time, the tenants of Jingxi Huangzhuang learned that the big man was coming, and gathered at the gate of the small courtyard of Huangzhuang to demonstrate and petition.
Zhu Cheng went up the ladder to see the situation outside the courtyard, and a stone flew towards his front door.
With a "bang", the stone smashed on the shield with a loud bang. But it was Chen Guoqi who came up with a shield.
Chen Guoqi shouted: "Lord Zhu Cheng Zhu is a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and your attack on Jinyi Wei Qianhu is a felony of stealing the family and exterminating the clan, and you will not let go of the stone in your hand." â
Many tenants put down the stones in their hands one after another, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and asked Zhu Cheng to spare their lives. For the vast majority of them, the biggest official they have ever seen in their lives is just a Li Zheng who is not in the stream, Jinyi Wei Qianhu, that is the storage zĂ i that must be looked up to. But two people in the crowd shouted, "Don't be afraid of him, we are outnumbered." â
Zhu Cheng said: "Where is Yuliang? â
Chu Liang responded.
Zhu Cheng said: "Shoot those two people, I want to die, not live." â
Two arrows flew out one after the other, hitting them in the throats.
The tenants were so frightened that they lay on the ground and did not dare to move.
Zhu Cheng raised his voice and said: "This person is a second-rate son in your village, he must have been bribed by others to incite you to besiege the Huangzhuang." â
A bold tenant stood up, looked at the two of them, and said, "Yes, the two of them are usually lazy and hardworking, and it was also their idea to besiege Huangzhuang this time. â
Zhu Cheng said: "What happened to you, I have already heard from the steward of Huangzhuang, tomorrow morning at the gate of Huangzhuang (now 9 o'clock), I will give you an explanation." â
When the tenants heard this, they gradually dispersed.
Zhu Cheng ordered someone to bury the bodies of the two second-rate sons.
Xu Guangqi said: "Lord Zhu, we all know that ghosts are pretended, but if you say this tomorrow, will the villagers believe it?" â
Zhu Cheng grinned and said, "Of course I won't believe it, so I don't plan to say that at all." â
Zhu Youzhen said: "What is Brother Cheng going to do?" â
Zhu Cheng said: "I once mentioned to you a person who might have played an unexpected role when we took over the village. Remember who he was? â
Everyone's eyes looked at the ball in unison.
Qiu Qiu trembled and said, "I'm not a heavenly master, and I can't catch ghosts." What's more, the ghosts in Huangzhuang are fake ghosts, all of them are pretended to be martial arts masters, and I don't know martial arts. â
Zhu Cheng pointed to him and said a few words in his ear.
Qiu Qiu immediately came to life and said, "Lord Zhu, please rest assured, this Heavenly Master will definitely show his skills tomorrow." â
