Chapter 204

Qingxu's idea is very simple, and he has done so many things for the emperor. Now Baiyunguan is in trouble with this dog, and the owner of the dog can't stand idly by. If the boss is not interesting enough, there will be no interesting little brother. If Baiyunguan is really unlucky, the emperor's request will not be satisfied.

Dao Xuan fell silent, and the emperor was his last hole card. There is nothing to do, and you must not trouble the emperor. It is only natural that the emperor sent you to do something. If you feel that the emperor should be grateful, or give you something in return, then you should also go and lie down in the earth.

Unless you have to, you must not look for the emperor.

"Go out, and think again." Dao Xuan stroked his forehead with his hand, feeling a great headache.

Just when Qingxu and Daoxuan were talking, Li Xiao was also listening to Xie Youcai's report.

The matter of the emperor letting Baiyunguan alchemy is definitely the core secret of the palace. If it weren't for a high-ranking official like Xu Xianchun, he wouldn't hear a trace of wind at all. Therefore, the fifth master has been in the capital for so long, and he has not been able to inquire about it.

"That's what Xu Xianchun said?" Li Xiao was a little surprised, it turned out that the emperor was good at alchemy. I used to think it was a legend, but I didn't expect someone to actually eat women's menstrual blood. It's disgusting!

"That's what he said!" Xie Youcai looked at the fifth master.

"I asked the people in the palace to inquire, but I didn't find out anything. However, Sun Yunhe from Dongchang revealed a message to us, and Baiyunguan has a good relationship with Long Live Lord. Whether it was alchemy or not, he didn't say. "The fifth master went out to inquire for a day, and he got this piece of useful information. It can be seen that even in the palace, this matter is a matter of great secrecy.

"The eight achievements are true, Sun Yunhe should have been sent by Wei Zhongxian to deliver the message. It seems that 9,000 years old is still very important to adults. Ai Husheng looked at Li Xiao's face and said.

"Humph! The power leans towards the government and the opposition, and he is still 9,000 years old. Do you think the imperial power allows others to be divided? Wei Zhongxian has so much power, this is the emperor using him to suppress the Donglin Party. Now that the Donglin Party is in decline, and Wei Zhongxian's family is dominant, the imperial power will not allow such a thing to happen. Perhaps, we are the force that the emperor will support in the future.

Okay, let's not talk about that. It's all in the future, so let's talk about the present. Baiyunguan is a cancer, I must cut it off. But now that it involves Long Live Lord, things can't be done recklessly. Let's find a way to let someone else do it for us. ”

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult......! Baiyunguan is also quite powerful in the capital, and it is not mentioned in addition to the relationship with the royal family. I have a very good relationship with the people in power. It's okay to do a ritual for this family, and make a dojo for that family. not only collects money, but also saves a lot of favors. The fifth master said with some embarrassment.

Li Xiao knew that Baiyunguan still had some power in the capital, and there was no way, so people believed in this year. If you don't believe yourself, you can't stop others from believing it. At the end of the day, politics is too subtle. When you are an official, you want to use external forces, and the immortals who don't have to be shadowless are naturally the most suitable spiritual pillars.

On the ground of this capital, not only Taoism is prosperous. Even the Buddhist family is surrounded by cars and horses in front of the door. I heard that in the first month, the price of the incense on the head pillar of the Reclining Buddha Temple in Xishan has risen to 3,000 taels of silver. That's it, it's still the preserve of officials. Merchants, don't even think about it.

"That's what you don't understand, what it means to mobilize the masses. Xie Youcai, I will find all the storytellers on the flyover tonight. Fifth master, you go to Master Man. Let Man Ye do this, do this, do ...... this! ”

The fifth master was a little stunned at first, but the more he listened, the bigger his eyes became. In the end, he looked at Li Xiao directly, what kind of brain is this, how could he come up with such a solution.

Overpass! Wine flags play in Tianqiao City, how many tourists do not remember home.

Every day, there are all kinds of artists who draw the ground as pots here, some do tricks, some sing, some draw bows and shoot arrows, some shake empty bamboos, dance forks, and climb poles. Every day, there are tourists rubbing shoulders here, and there are many teahouses, standing storytellers and commenting on stories.

Zhang Qi, the boss who sells silk and satin, and Chen Jiu, the boss who sells cloth shoes, came to a teahouse where they usually drink tea, and as soon as they entered the door, Xiao Er greeted him with a smile: "Here, two masters, have something to drink today." The new Shifeng Longjing in the south, didn't you try it when you just arrived yesterday? Seeing that it was a regular customer, Xiao Er enthusiastically started to sell. He had to say this kind of thing a hundred and eighty times a day, and he had already trained it to be extremely pure. The muscles on the face are all perfectly matched. It's perfect!

"Good! Have a pot and refreshments for you to watch. I like to listen to Mr. Yuan's commentary, yesterday I talked about "Three Kingdoms" about Cao Cao's Huarong Road, and Mr. Yuan put aside Yuzi at the critical moment. In the evening, my brother and I thought about it all night, scratching my heart and liver. After instructing Xiao Er, Zhang Qi told Chen Jiu about yesterday's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"That's it! Little brother, I also had a lot of trouble all night, so I wanted to hear what Mr. Yuan had to say today. Did Cao Aman rush over, and did Guan Erye behead him? Chen Jiu spoke with a big tongue, and Cao Aman was stunned to say that he was Cao Aman.

The two of them found an empty table and sat down, and as soon as the refreshments were served, they heard the sound of shouting in the hall. Looking up at the stands, Mr. Yuan walked out and arched his hand to the tea guests in the audience.

"Life is everywhere, it should be like Feihong stepping on the slush.

Occasionally, there are fingers and claws on the mud, and Hongfei counts things.

The old monk has died into a new tower, and the bad wall has no reason to see the old problem.

Do you remember the rugged days in the past, the road is long and the donkey is sleepy and neighing. After reciting four sentences of the final poem, Mr. Yuan patted it. There was a roar of applause from below!

"Today we are not going to talk about books, but about a real thing." As soon as Mr. Yuan spoke, everyone was stunned.

"Buzz!" It exploded immediately, and the big guys are all here to listen to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which story do you tell. I held back for a night yesterday, just waiting to hear today whether Guan Er Ye beheaded Cao Cao, now tell the truth, who listens!

"Rank! When this matter is said, I guarantee that everyone is willing to listen to it and listen to Yuan.

It is said that there is a Zhuangzi outside the Xibian Gate, called Baiyun Villa. The gentlemen in Sijiu City almost all know that it is the gold cave, where the jokes are. Two days ago, General Li, the general of Liaodong, came to rest and went to Baiyun Villa to drink tea.

In the meantime, his brother knocked over a teacup, and guess what? ”

The audience below is still "buzzing" and "buzzing" from ear to ear, telling that they can't hear the dissatisfaction of the three countries. Tuo, who had been prepared a long time ago, looked around and immediately shouted, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's that little teacup, Baiyun Villa just blackmailed Mr. Li for 1,000 taels of silver."

As soon as Mr. Yuan said this, the bottom immediately fell silent. On weekdays, I am bullied by officials, and the big guys love to hear the stories of being bullied by officials.

"Mr. Yuan, don't talk nonsense. The old man knows that although General Li is young. But he was a fierce general, and the Tartars of Liaodong were all defeated by him. I heard that more than 10,000 people were killed in the battle, and even the head and token of the Tartar banner lord were returned. My eldest son is in the military department, and he came home and said that this big victory was a real one. There is absolutely no such thing as a presumption! An old gentleman with a long beard shouted with some dissatisfaction.

"Fourth Master Wu, don't be impatient! Mr. Li is the one who leads the troops, how could he suffer such a loss. By asking his brother to fetch the silver, he transferred troops and surrounded the Baiyun Villa. Those black-hearted thugs all had their legs broken one by one. The Baiyun Villa was even more smashed. ”

"Good! It's a man! There was a sudden shout from below. Although I hate being an official, I also like bloody men.

"It's not just this, those suffering kiln sisters and maids secretly revealed. Tell the shocking shady curtain of Baiyun Mountain Villa! When Mr. Yuan said this, he paused deliberately.

At this moment, even Zhang Qi and Chen Jiu put down their teacups and listened carefully to what was going on in Baiyun Villa.

"It is said that this Baiyun Villa buys beautiful girls all year round, which is reasonable. If you put grass and sell yourself, even if you are a person of other people, you can't control anything. But you know what? This Baiyun Villa also conspires with the flowers who shoot flowers and the people of the beggar gang to kidnap the population all the year round. There are those who are tied up in secluded places, and there are also those who take a fancy to people during the day, sneak into people's homes at night, and use incense to stun and steal them.

It doesn't matter if you are everyone's lady or a small family's jasper. When I arrived at Baiyun Villa, I lived a life that was not as good as pigs and dogs, and the money I earned a day was not in harmony with the mind of the manager. It was a stick that was picked up and beaten, and the arm-thick pickaxe was stunned to discount seven or eight.

What's even more cruel is that they also colluded with the Taoist priests of Baiyun Temple. used the girl's heart and blood to make alchemy, and more than a dozen white bones were dug out of a dry well alone. ”

"! The year before last, my second aunt's cousin was abducted by Hanako, could it be said that Baiyun Villa did it? With a "poof" at the bottom, a person stood up and shouted loudly.

"Seventh brother, don't worry, let's ask. Baiyun Temple is not easy to mess with! Chen Jiu hurriedly grabbed Zhang Qi's sleeve and pulled it down.

"That is, Baiyun Temple is the West where Dao Xuan Zhenren retreats. Mr. Yuan, this meal can be eaten indiscriminately, but words cannot be indiscriminate. What is the credential for you to arrange Baiyun Mountain Villa like this? Then another man stood up at the bottom.

"Huh! Scold! If you don't believe it, you can go to the gate of Baiyun Mountain Villa to see. The remains of the salvaged girl, as well as the abducted and trafficked women who have not yet been killed, appeared to say. Don't say I don't know, it turns out that there are still such human demon caves hidden in our capital. ”

"Lao Jiu, you drink. Brother, I'll take a look! Zhang Qi listened to Mr. Yuan's words, stood up and left.

"There are a lot of flowers in the capital, and whoever has a lack of female babies can go to Baiyun Villa to find it." Mr. Yuan's voice came from behind him.

Five or six more people walked out of the teahouse, and then people left the teahouse in groups and walked towards Xibianmen. Although this spring is cold, it can't stop the raging fire of gossip in people's chests. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, the first good district. It's unheard of for such a thing to happen. If you don't watch this excitement, it's even more uncomfortable than not listening to the Three Kingdoms.

In less than a few moments, only a few people in the teahouse were left.

Mr. Yuan arched his hand to the shopkeeper and said with a smile, "Farewell!" Escorted by two sturdy men, he left the teahouse.

Today, such stories are played out in dozens of teahouses. The people who started to walk towards Xibianmen were just a group, but they soon became slippery. The dense crowd was like a flowing river, and it was like ants surging forward like ants finding huge food.

Early in the morning, Man Gui asked people to put the salvaged corpses into a glass cabinet and put them at the door of Baiyun Villa. Before noon, people came over one after another to see the excitement. On the makeshift platform, a maid was sobbing and telling her story. The maid with her legs lame still stayed in that room, and the baby looked like a baby.

Seeing the living people being tortured like skinny skeletons, everyone covered their noses, and some of the young people even clenched their fists. I don't know who threw a few copper brothers in, and then someone threw it in. One morning, the ground was covered with copper coins. If you exchange it for silver money, you can also exchange it for three, five, seven taels.

"God-damned Baiyun Villa, god-damn black slaves. Baiyunguan is powerful, and the little woman has nowhere to redress her grievances, so all the old and young masters are in charge of me! The woman cried as she spoke, sobbing over her shoulder. There are shallow tear sockets, and they are also accompanied by tears.

For a whole day, the flow of people in front of the door was not stopped. The woman also sat in the house and cried all day.

Rumors in the capital spread faster than the wind. The next day, the news of the captivity of Baiyun Mountain Villa spread widely. There are more people visiting Baiyun Villa, and I don't know where to find people in Mangui. He also painted portraits of thugs beating the maids, and the thugs painted them fiercely and viciously. The maids were all delicate and weak, and they were pitiful.

Man Gui also specially asked the abducted women to take turns on stage to tell how they were abducted and how they were persecuted in Baiyun Villa.

"Girl!" A disfigured maid was crying when she was sad, and a heart-rending voice suddenly came from below. Immediately afterwards, a thin woman in her thirties and forties climbed onto the high platform with her hands and feet.

"Girl! How did you become like this, how beautiful you were when you were a child. In the past few years, you have been here, and your father and I have gone to Jimen to look for you. The woman wept and held the girl's burned face and did not let go. Tears wet the clothes in an instant!

"Mother! When I refused to take the customer, they scalded me with a soldering iron. As soon as I was ruthless, I put my face on the soldering iron. With that, the girl slipped into her mother's arms. The miserable cry was heartbreaking.

At this time, there were tens of thousands of onlookers, and they couldn't even hear a cough. There was a voice, and it was also the sound of the mother and daughter sobbing together.

"Goddamn bastard, the government doesn't care about your mother. You tell your mother where those brutes are. Mother is looking for them desperately! The thin woman wept and wept, and suddenly stopped crying. Inside the thin body, a majestic murderous aura suddenly erupted. The eyes that choose people and devour them are like a tigress.

"Mother! They are all hiding in the Baiyun Temple, and the Baiyun Temple has a deep background of power, and the government does not dare to take it. Mother, I'm not ready to get married in this life, and I'll live with you. Compared to the sisters who were killed, I was much luckier. In the slope behind, I don't know how many sisters have died in vain. ”

"Fuck it, Wang Fa doesn't care about us. I asked myself if I was still a man with a handle, so I followed Lao Tzu to Baiyun Temple. A tall man suddenly shouted, and then led people towards Baiyun Temple.

At first a dozen people followed, then more than a hundred. Then there are thousands of people, and there are more people in the black pressure than in the temple fair.
