Chapter 585: A Bucket of Cold Water

As soon as he said this, King Ning and Zhu Zhengyang looked at each other at the same time, and there was still a trace of doubt in their eyes. Could it be that he had heard about the auspiciousness of this Baitou Ridge in other places?

"Lord, when you are drinking outside today, you heard that there has been a discussion outside, saying that the land of Baitouling has given birth to auspiciousness, and the wheat is fully ripe after half a month of planting. And the yield per mu is 1,000 catties, which is not even comparable to the harvest year. The thousand households hesitated for a moment and said what they had heard.

"What! The news has already spread?" Zhu Zhengyang called out directly, and after listening to the words of this thousand households, he felt that things were not going well.

And King Ning's face also changed greatly, he was still building his own grand plan in his heart just now, and now he was slapped hard by this reality. It would be terrible if someone else wanted to hear about it.

He didn't care that this auspicious thing would make the court think that he was buying people's hearts, which was actually secondary. Some things that catch the wind and shadows, even if the court wants to deal with him, it is not so easy. The royal clan will not allow such a thing to happen, and when necessary, the old men of the clan will still defend the prince's sons and grandsons.

The most important thing is that this auspicious rui happened in Baitouling, this is where his military camp is located, and the field is also the sergeant under his command.

He was cut three guards, if someone finds out that there are so many people under him, it means that the clan can't protect him. Keeping private soldiers is already a serious crime tantamount to rebellion.

"Quick, go to Baitouling, transfer everyone away, and be sure to get rid of this matter. Zhu Haochen was taken aback, although he always wanted to sit in the ninety-five position. But when it really happened, he was timid.

Zhu Zhengyang nodded solemnly, even if they want to rebel, they must take the initiative, if they are forced to rebel, then all the layouts will be disrupted, and they are not ready.

While they were discussing this matter, the matter of auspicious Rui had already been in an uproar throughout Nanchang City, and many people and officials were talking about it. The wheat grows in the winter, and it sounds like nonsense. However, many people believe what they have said that they have noses and eyes.

Within a few days, Sun Sui, the governor of Jiangxi, also sent people to find the place where Xiangrui was. This year, various places have been hit by disasters, if he can have an auspicious situation in Jiangxi, it doesn't mean that he has made meritorious contributions to education. As long as it is reported, it will be a great credit, and this Sun Sui also has the heart to take another step, so he hurriedly wants to find this auspicious rui. I heard rumors that Xiangrui happened in Baitouling, which is quite remote, and there is still a long distance from the city. Unless you are a local of Nanchang, few people know about this place.

However, when they finally found Baitouling, they only saw a pile of ashes, and a large area of mountains and forests were burned, and they didn't even find a fart. However, there are also some people who have found some traces of ridges in some ashes, and it seems that this was really a vast field.

......

"Phew, what is this, where can I swallow it. "In a wide valley, there were dilapidated houses, and tents at the foot of the hill. By this time it was already evening, and many soldiers were cooking.

Chen Laosan picked up a thick dough cake, put it on a stick, baked it in the bonfire, and then took a bite in his mouth. Maybe it didn't feel like it tasted good, so he threw it up again.

A few days ago, King Ning urgently sent people to the military camp in Baitouling and asked them to evacuate overnight, and everything in Baitouling was burned clean. In addition to the houses built in the barracks, even the wheat fields were not spared. You must know that this wheat has just been harvested, and before it has had time to harvest much, it has been burned all in this way, and as long as everyone is distressed to death.

After the grain was burned, they hurried to a valley near Fengcheng County at night. Fengcheng borders Linjiang and Ruizhou, and this valley here, once a bandit's lair, has long been deserted and has become a temporary stronghold for these soldiers.

This place is almost out of the scope of Nanchang Mansion, as long as there is a slight disturbance, they can feel that they are going to other mansions, and they can also clear King Ning's suspicions.

"Don't complain, we just follow the idea. A guard pursed his lips, his words seemed to be comforting Chen Laosan, but the tone seemed to be mocking.

Those dignitaries and nobles are high, they have never seen anything good, and they have never tasted the taste of hunger, and of course they don't know how to cherish food. But these people, who were born poor, couldn't eat enough all year round when they were young, and they took food very seriously. When they saw the golden grain burned to ashes in front of them, the distress in their hearts was not to mention.

"Alright, you can say a few words. In a few days, it will be the New Year. Everyone has been busy these days, settle down first, and then prepare for the New Year. Anyway, this year must be lively. Fang Hong sat on the other side of the bonfire, and when he heard the complaining voice, he smiled and told them to stop arguing.

King Ning's quick decision was as he expected. Compared with his own life, these hundreds of acres of fields are nothing, if it were Fang Hong himself, he would definitely choose to set fire to burn everything clean.

It's just that after this battle, in the hearts of most soldiers, King Ning's status has to be shaken a lot. Many people regard it as a faint king who is extravagant and misbehaving.

And this is the effect that Fang Hong wants. He didn't want these 5,000 people to go with this King Ning to die in vain. Although King Ning is lucky, he does not have the dragon spirit of the Son of Heaven, and it is impossible to become an emperor.

Speaking of dragon qi, Fang Hong suddenly remembered another thing. That is, he once found dragon qi in King Xing's body, according to this, King Xing has a great chance of becoming the emperor?

Da Ming has no tradition of passing on the throne to his brothers, even if Zhu Houzhao dies, his descendants should ascend the throne. However, this Zhu Houzhao seems to have no heirs for the time being.

"Do you mean...... Is this Zhu Houzhao a short-lived ghost?" Fang Hong couldn't see through the luck of an emperor, so he didn't know if this Zhu Houzhao could have an heir. But he checked Zhu Houzhao's body, although it was not very strong, but there was no hidden disease, it stands to reason that there should be a child. Unless Zhu Houzhao's life is too short, and he has not had time to give birth to a child, he will die.

In this way, King Xing will have a chance to ascend to the throne.
