Chapter 284: The Fiery Beauty
Chapter 284: The Beauty of Fire
"Do you want to do it?" The flag officer holding a monocular clairvoyant stood behind Mo Jinghui.
"Wait and see." Mo Jinghui knew that if he did such a big thing, the White Lotus Sect would not only have such an effect.
"Inform the people who tell us, don't stare at the people on the high platform, focus on the people looking at the people below. Below the strange shape, wearing gold and silver, monks and Taoists stared at it. Did the yamen of Baoding Mansion send people? ”
"Seventeen have already been divided." It is not the flag officer who speaks.
Mo Jinghui turned his head, and the flag officer hurriedly introduced: "This Baoding prefect Bai Hanze." ”
He should know that Mo Jinghui can't take care of himself now, so he didn't say anything politely, but just arched his hand and said:
"This official will escort back the chiefs and patriarchs involved in this eucalyptus." Obviously, his voice has become hoarse, and the whole person looks like he is in a state of mutated hyperactivity that he has not slept for a long time.
"Jinyiwei will also follow up, and I ask for the prefect's understanding." Mo Jinghui also made things clear in advance. If you have a harvest here tomorrow, you will naturally be happy, and if you don't catch a big fish, you will naturally have to start from these.
"The commander can rest assured, these people have close contacts with Baoding Mansion, and the reason why this official can come is that he wants to send them directly to the Jinyi Guard in the city." Bai Han didn't know Mo Jinghui's position, but it was obviously higher than Baihu, and there was nothing wrong with being a commander. He actually came to ask for assistance this time, and he wanted to kill the original local lieutenant and patriarch at one time, and Baoding Mansion also needed the tiger skin of Jinyiwei.
"That's fine." Mo Jinghui didn't expect it so deeply, and nodded directly.
At this time, the scenery of the high platform in front of the Laojun Temple changed.
The rosin powder was thrown into the raging fire, and the reflection of the shattered glass mirror on the ground brought out the posture of an incomparably sacred celestial maiden. Mo said that he was a homeless, and even the nearby villagers were attracted to it. There were too many people, crowded in front of Lao Jun.
Against the backdrop of the firelight, the Celestial Maiden began to sit cross-legged, and a sound like chanting and chanting drifted along the wind. The crowd was infected by the sound of chanting, and unconsciously knelt down.
The chanting is getting louder and louder.
Rumble......
A huge ball of fire ignited from beneath the high platform, and the flames soon pounced on the corner of the saint's clothes.
The quality of the monoculars was still too poor, and for a moment Mo Jinghui seemed to see the smile on the saint's face. With a shake of the hand, it is no longer visible. By the time she retrieved the Holy Maiden again, the Holy Maiden was completely enveloped in flames.
The chanting was louder, and the saint did not move in the midst of the flames.
"Shall we go? The wagons and the convoy were already five miles away. ”
Sikou Zhongying, who was standing behind the Laojun Temple, stepped forward and asked cautiously.
Ao Fu had changed her clothes and was now a capable businesswoman, and she glanced at the still burning platform and the children and men chanting under it.
"Let's go separately, the Dianchi Pavilion in the Beijing Division will meet, and let Uncle Wang clean up. From today onwards, we are tea and horse merchants in Yunnan, do you remember? ”
"Remembered."
Ao Fu took a few steps forward, but thought about it again.
"Tell Uncle Wang that three boxes of jade and other things from the Fang family in Yunnan were left on top of the bait in Laojun Temple, which was originally used by the Fang family to sacrifice the dead, and now it is placed in the place where the eldest young master of his family burned himself, which can be regarded as a scene."
"Besides, without the bait, how can those people fight."
"Let's go to the Dianchi Pavilion too?"
"What Dianchi Pavilion to go, let's go to Kong Laosan, the one million taels of silver that we said, plus our expenses here, it's not okay to lose one tael."
At noon on the ninth day of the first month, the east corner of Chongwenmen City is in the bubble sea.
Kong Xiangxi, Kong Laosan of the Kong family, also had lunch in the company of Wu Zezhang.
Kong Xiangxi felt that the food in the past few days was delicious, and he could eat a lot every time, and for the last piece of cake soaked in the fish head, he even knocked out Wu Zezhang's fast son with his own fast son.
Wu Zezhang rubbed his stomach and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Actually, it's not that I haven't eaten enough, but I can't help but want to eat again."
Kong Xiangxi knocked the plate with a fast son,
"There are seven pieces of bread, and you eat four, and you burp ...... You're going to pay me back. ”
"No, Young Master Kong, is this thing worth taking so seriously? A piece of cake thing. ”
"Really? If it's true, can I keep you with me? You guys are like the Wu family in Jiangnan buckle the rope, I will put the words here today, this piece of cake is 100,000 taels, I don't think your Uncle Wu will pay! ”
"Hey, third brother, don't you want to be in such a hurry." When it came to business, Wu Zezhang hurriedly replied.
"This time, our Wu family in Jiangnan is just a side drummer, what's the matter, the Ruan Array in Jiaozhou is the main one. The current ocean fleet of the imperial court has robbed fifty percent of their business, and I heard that Xiong Wencan is still buying a ship in Fuzhou. We don't care, it's just to pay some more taxes on silver, and we used to buy it when we said we sold it to Westerners, and it is estimated that we will have to pay a batch of silver to the government in the future. Their family is different, if the government's gunboats are up, think about it. ”
"I don't care......" Kong Xiangxi seemed to be full, so he took a sip of tea from the teacup handed over by the maid, and rinsed his mouth with a gurgling mouth.
"It's a big deal to let 100,000 homeless people hold up the sign of the Ruan Array in Jiaozhou, if you want, it is not impossible to add a Wu family. If it really doesn't work, let my eldest brother write an excerpt to the court. ”
"Master, master, this is the last trembling. Don't, our family's money is estimated to be on the way, I'll go and urge you again. ”
"It's late!" Kong Xiangxi also slapped the table.
"Of the 400,000 taels of your family, you have paid 300,000 taels before and after, and you will not take the remaining 100,000 taels for anything. Hooking up with the White Lotus Sect, what a big sin! To be honest, Jiaozhou Ruan Zhen is mixed at sea, and I can't touch the third master, but I also told Dongying's good friend that I don't want the remaining 200,000 taels, and give them all to Dongying's good brother. But his brother Jiaozhou prefect estimated that his life would be short. I don't know if I can still eat fish? ”
Wu Zezhang was really scared, in fact, the silver ticket of 100,000 taels was in his room, and he wanted to keep it for himself.
"The old servant will be back in a moment, maybe he will bring it with him." The more scared he was, the more Wu Zezhang showed himself to be very calm.
"I don't know what you promised you, 100,000 homeless people are making trouble in Beijing, and you don't forget that Chongzhen has committed his own edict. Everyone is in the same boat, if it really overturns, your Kong family will be able to live in Qufu by yourself? ”
"Our Kong family? When the Yuan Dynasty didn't have your Wu family, didn't it? The Zhu family in this world is Fengyang, and they are just from mud legs, speaking of the family, guess who else there will be? Who else would dare to attack our Kong family? ”
"I'll go see if our old servant has come back."
Huh?
Wu Zezhang leaned together, but did not stand up.
He glanced at the maid who was smiling next to him, and he became angry.
"Don't help me yet, laugh at something."
"Help your mother's legs!" The one didn't know what he remembered, and said viciously as if he was someone else's tone.
"You die!"
Wu Zezhang is afraid of Kong Xiangxi, but it doesn't mean that he is a kind person, in his eyes, what is the difference between killing a maid and swatting a fly to death?
"I'm scared to death, you beat me." But the maid died by herself.
Wu Zezhang suddenly found that his hands on the armrests of the seat seemed to be bound by an invisible rope, and he couldn't move.
It seems that only his own neck can still turn.
He turned to Kong Xiangxi:
"Kong Laosan, is 100,000 taels of silver worth your poison? Your Kong family is so despicable and obscene? ”
