Chapter 420: White Lotus Envoy
The Shangyuan Festival has passed, and it has not yet reached the season of spring flowers, the sky and the earth are cold to the bone, the heavy snow has been falling for days, and the city is covered in silver inside and outside the city, and it is difficult to find anger.
Outside Tianjin, an ordinary blue canopy carriage quietly got off the official road, turned left and drove slowly for more than ten miles, and drove into an inconspicuous farm in the suburbs.
The woods outside the farmhouse were full of people, and the atmosphere was solemn, and it seemed that countless pairs of eyes were staring at the carriage.
The carriage went straight into the farm, and when it came to the fence of the farm, the coachman of the carriage shook his hand and whipped loudly, and the carriage stopped at once.
The coachman was a burly man, dressed in a shabby jacket wrapped around his body, and the felt hat on his head had accumulated a thick layer of snow, ignoring the shaking of the figure in the farm, the coachman stood on the wheel of the car and shouted inside: "The snow is blocking the road, the travelers are tired, and the villagers inside are willing to enjoy a bowl of hot water to drink?" ”
Ignoring the increasingly solemn vigilance atmosphere in the house, the coachman turned around and opened the curtain of the carriage, wearing a luxurious brocade robe and an otter fur hat, and a man dressed as a merchant showed his face.
Ma Si is no longer the miserable appearance he had when he was in the Xichang prison, and the servile and humble look in front of Liu Jin is no longer seen, at this moment he is smiling kindly, dressed luxuriously, and full of businessman's style.
Seeing the tension in the farm, Ma Si smiled: "Good place, Hongyang Nu has trained the brothers of Tianjin Xiangtang well. ”
The solemn atmosphere in the village suddenly came to an abrupt end.
…………
…………
When Tang Zihe heard the news and left the official office and rushed to the farm, it was already two hours later.
Step into the farmstead. Tang Zihe saw Ma Si standing in front of the fence with a smile on his face, his hands shrunk in his sleeves, and his eyes flickering from time to time when he looked at her.
Seeing Tang Zihe's stunning appearance, Ma Si's eyes couldn't help but light up, just showing a little covetousness, but he didn't know what he remembered, he sighed regretfully, and the desire in his eyes quickly extinguished.
Tang Zihe sneered secretly, and hugged his fists at the horse: "The envoy is coming, and the Hongyang girl is far away." Forgiveness. ”
Ma Sipi smiled and said, "It's easy to say." This envoy set out from Jizhou Mansion and traveled all the way south, and after passing through Beijing, he found that the imperial court was very strict with our White Lotus Sect, and from time to time I saw that some brothers in our sect were seized by the government. The fact that the Red Sun Girl did not come out to greet her was also forced by the situation. How could the envoy be blamed? ”
Tang Zihe frowned when he heard this.
There are words in Ma Si's words. On the surface, it sounds reasonable, but in fact, it alludes to her ineffective development of the White Lotus Sect, which provokes the government to spend a lot of effort to investigate them. Loss of white lotus power.
The first sentence he said was to hide his sword and hide his sword, obviously the person who came was not good.
Tang Zihe held back his anger, pretending not to understand, and said: "The envoy is here, so I will ask the envoy to lead us to ascend to the incense hall and worship the unborn old mother." ”
Ma Si smiled: "This is nature. ”
The gate of the farm was closed, dozens of Tianjin backbone elements invited out the statue of the godless mother, under the leadership of Ma Si, everyone bowed down devoutly, and after reciting a set of scriptures, they got up after the ceremony.
The number of seats in the hall has changed, the main seat no longer belongs to Tang Zihe, Ma Si sat up unceremoniously, Tang Zihe sat aside, and the backbone of Ge Lao Wu and other sects sat scattered.
Everyone is not in a position to pay attention to the hypocrisy in the officialdom of the Ming Court, a rough small pottery bowl is sprinkled with a few stars of tea leaves, and then rushed with boiling water, and the guests are treated.
Ma Si didn't dislike it, picked up the bowl and blew a few cool breaths, and took a sip carefully.
After drinking tea, Ma Si opened his mouth and went straight to the topic: "Hongyang Girl, this envoy rushed to Tianjin on the order of the general altar to ask you a word on behalf of the general altar." ”
"Envoy, please."
Ma Si's expression was solemn, and he stared at Tang Zihe word by word and said: "Thousands of people in Tianjin Sanwei have joined the White Lotus Sect, and it is when the victory is in hand, when will the general altar ask you, when will the incident start?" ”
Tang Zihe said lightly: "The time has not yet come. ”
"What do you think is the time to count?"
"The time, the location, the people, the three are indispensable, the time of the day, now the Ming Emperor is mediocre, ignorant of political affairs, favored the traitorous eunuch Liu Jin, domestic and foreign affairs are all decided by the power of the traitor, the court is in the miasma, and then the Hongzhi Emperor and many famous ministers in the past 20 years have laid down the prosperous world, can tens of thousands of sectarians in Tianjin Sanwei and Beizhili be overthrown? The geographical advantage, Tianjin is more than 200 miles away from Beijing, the morning and evening are coming, and the imperial court can be smashed directly, but think about it the other way, the Beijing division is only more than 200 miles away from Tianjin, if Tianjin is reversed, the imperial army will also arrive in the morning and evening, and it will be destroyed in an instant. People and people ......"
Tang Zihe smiled bitterly a few times and said: "The imperial court is orthodox after all, and the white lotus is still a grass coward, who does the people agree with?" Now there is a powerful Qincha in the city, sending rice and grain to open a good shed, and with a wave of his hand, he will allocate 100,000 taels of silver to the army, and the people and the army and the people are all favored by it, and its momentum is sharp, I am trying to save the situation, if it is said that it is human, it is not as good as in the past, the court deliberately caress it, and the White Lotus Sect can no longer have much advantage......"
Ma Si frowned, and suddenly sneered: "In this way, the rivers of the White Lotus Xiangtang in Tianjin are declining day by day, and they are becoming more and more declining? Several elders of the general altar are waiting for the Hongyang Female Flame to be raised high and launch an uprising, looking at the territory of the Ming Court, only you Tianjin Xiangtang has the best momentum, and now listening to your words, it seems that the incident is far away? ”
Tang Zihe said expressionlessly: "When the Ming court is sent away, the hearts of the people and the army are secretly re-accumulated, and then there is an opportunity for civil strife in the court of the Beijing Division, then the incident will be much greater than now." ”
"To be able to take care of Tianjin Xiangtang so vigorously, Hongyang Nu should not be a timid person."
Tang Zihe said softly or hardly: "Tianjin Xiangtang can have today, all thanks to my prudence." ”
Ma Si changed color and snorted heavily: "Red Yang Girl, don't you think you are deliberately prevaricating?" The White Lotus Sect has been developing in Tianjin for several years, and its momentum has gradually grown, and the general altar has ordered you to make trouble five times, but you always use the excuse to postpone it, and now the imperial court has a Qincha surnamed Qin, and Tianjin Xiangtang has been suppressed to the point of losing his armor and abandoning his armor, why did the Hongyang girl teach me? ”
A kind remark made everyone present angry, everyone in the hall was Tang Zihe's confidant, seeing that the envoy sent by the general altar was so aggressive, and the words were aimed at Tang Zihe everywhere, how could everyone not be angry?
Tang Zihe swept around coldly, and his subordinates who were about to move suddenly quieted down.
"Envoy Mingjian, Tianjin Xiangtang has recently lost power, just because the imperial court sent the Qincha should not be underestimated, this person is both gracious and powerful, extraordinary courage, both dare to kill the killer, but also good at soothing Huairou, Tianjin was so governed by him, the army and the people did not dare to have two hearts to the court, the people who originally entered the incense hall also have many retreats, it can be seen that its obscenity is prosperous, Qincha is still in the city, if you rashly act at this time, dare to ask the envoy, what are the odds?"
Ma Si sneered: "The left is also a reason, and the right is also a reason, it is said that Qin Kan is the most trusted minister of the Dog Emperor, not only young, but also handsome, and I heard that the Hongyang girl has lived in the official office, and gets along with that Qin Kan day and night, one is a handsome minister, and the other is a young girl, you should not have a love for him, and leave my great cause behind, right?" ”
"Fuck you!" Ge Lao Wu couldn't hold back any longer, and angrily slapped the case, and a dagger dangling from his waist was already out of its sheath.
Ma Si suddenly changed color: "Hongyang girl, your good subordinates!" ”
"Ge Lao Wu, sit down for me! What is not in order, is it your turn to speak? Tang Zihe screamed.
Then Tang Zihe stared at Ma Si, murderous, and said: "The identity of the envoy represents the general altar, the so-called I have a love affair with Qin Kan, is it the meaning of the envoy himself, or the meaning of the general altar?" ”
The atmosphere was stiff with a little murderous intent, Ma Si looked a little flustered, his eyes flickered a few times, and said: "Hongyang girl, you can't do anything for all kinds of reasons, Tianjin Xiangtang is now getting worse and worse by you, the situation is like this, can't you allow others to suspect it?" If you stand upright, why are you afraid of shadows? ”
"What is the Envoy's Will?"
"I believe in your reason for not having an accident, the righteous flag can be raised slowly, but the Ming court sent Qin Kan to be the emperor's most trusted minister, killing him is tantamount to cutting off the emperor's arm, you can not do anything, you have nothing to say about killing Qin Kan, right? You are now living in the official office, getting along with Qin Kan day and night, and killing him is a matter of effort for you. ”
"Knowing that Qin Kan is the emperor's trusted minister, if he dies, the emperor will be furious, mobilize a large army to besiege Tianjin, and go all out to suppress my White Lotus Divine Sect, the situation that we have been operating for many years is gone, and the envoy Mingjian can only wait for Qin Kanxing to return to Beijing, and I will wait for the best way to slowly figure it out, and it will be a catastrophe if I kill it!"
Ma Si stood up and said angrily: "Left is not good, right is not good, Tang Zihe, let me ask you, is Tianjin Xiangtang still a branch of my White Lotus Sect?" Are you still obeying the orders of the general altar or are you the unfaithful and unrighteous who intends to start a new door? ”
*****************************************************************
Qin Kan casually flipped through the book.
The book is a good book, and it is also a book from heaven, and the authentic Fang family secret technique given to him by his mother-in-law Du Wang is said to be very valuable.
The second elder still has no heirs, and he doesn't know where Du Wang's confidence comes from, Qin Kan has never believed in this kind of feudal superstition, and originally planned to ask someone to copy a copy and sell it to Liu Jin at a high price, no matter whether Liu Jin dies or practiced, he can have more experimental data. Who knew that after being inadvertently discovered by Tang Zihe yesterday, the goddess doctor told Qin Kan very authoritatively that the secret technique in this room is definitely a priceless treasure and is invaluable, if you want to have a son with the main room, it is more effective to practice according to the above method than to prescribe any prescription.
So Qin Kan opened the book today, planning to read it carefully, but found that the words in it were jerky and difficult to understand, and there were several diagrams of men and women meridians every few pages, which looked profound but weird, although the real one was unknown, but it was powerful.
After the end, Qin Kan closed the book in awe and decided to continue to put it on the shelf.
Regardless of his limited cultural level, he couldn't understand this book written by a master, and the most important thing was that Qin Kan found a common denominator from the completely consistent attitude of Du Wang and Tang Zihe, these two had no sons, and they both advised him to try it first......
Think beautifully......
