Chapter 273: Congratulations to Your Majesty

As soon as Chen Li heard the great credit, he chuckled in his heart.

He believed that Zhang Anshi would definitely not mess with him, but ...... With great merit comes great risk.

In all dynasties, great credits were given to the dead, such as Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu's father.

But Chen Li was only slightly stunned, but he still said: "Yes, I will arrange for him to come." ”

Zhang Anshi immediately said: "From now on, all plans must be kept extremely secret, we only take this Buddha father and Buddha mother, and in addition, these backbones." ”

While speaking, Zhang Anshi stroked the eucalyptus and said in a deep voice: "Time is pressing, call him immediately." ”

An hour later, Chen Daowen came.

He looks mediocre and looks very honest, Zhang Anshi talked with him for a while, and indeed this guy is the same as he remembers, he is a stable person.

After giving orders at the moment, Chen Daowen remembered them one by one.

Although he didn't know why Zhang Anshi arranged and arranged it like this, he didn't raise any questions, it belongs to that kind of mentality, as long as I am diligent enough, it doesn't matter if I have a brain or not.

Zhang Anshi explained, and said with a smile: "After an hour, you will set off, and I will arrange the rest for you." Just do what I say, and there will be a little danger if you go. Later, have a meal with me, I wish you a smooth journey. ”

Chen Daowen said excitedly: "Thank you, grandfather." ”

Jinyiwei has rules, all military attaches above the general flag are promoted, after the list is reported, Zhang Anshi will check the other party's merits and qualifications, as well as the person's life history and so on.

Once this is passed, there is still an interview.

That is, the person is needed to see Zhang Anshi, although the process of seeing is very simple, maybe Zhang Anshi will not say a few words, and just casually ask some about his life situation, or some views on Wei Li, and maybe even say a few words, and then send it away.

But even so, this is a big deal for a low-level military attaché. Almost all of them hope to leave a good impression in front of Zhang Anshi.

After seeing it, Zhang Anshi will probably issue a promotion order, and as soon as the order is issued, he can take office.

This approach is actually a kind of investigation by Zhang Anshi, from this low-level military attaché, to see if there are some people who can get special attention.

After all, seeing is believing.

In addition, this also strengthens the centripetal force of the entire Jinyiwei.

Low-level military attachés are generally extremely unfamiliar with a high-ranking figure like Zhang Anshi.

This form of reference was enough to impress them, although it was not necessarily just a few words that would produce some gratitude, but at least they knew that Wei Guogong was not far away from them.

Power is both top-down, in fact, it is also bottom-up, especially in this Ming Dynasty, how many local parents and officials from Jinshi were born in the place, and after arriving in the place, they were randomly made by those little officials?

One by one, they have been officials for a few years, and they can't do anything except earn a lot of money, which is actually the reason.

Under normal circumstances, if someone is about to be promoted to an official position of more than 100 households, or is about to perform a particularly dangerous task, Zhang Anshi not only wants to meet, but also keeps someone for a meal.

Eating this meal almost indicates that this person may be about to soar, of course, provided that this person is alive.

After Zhang Anshi arrived, there was an unwritten rule in Jinyiwei, that is, subordinates were not allowed to pay for their bosses to eat, but their bosses could invite their subordinates.

The meal of this meal is very simple, just a few dishes, and a large bone broth, Chen Daowen eats very restrainedly, his mood is actually very complicated, he knows what he is going to face, but he also has an inexplicable vision for the future.

Although his uncle is Chen Li, Chen Li is very cautious, but he does not dare to promote his own nephew.

On the one hand, he was afraid of gossip from his subordinates, and on the other hand, he was afraid of arousing Zhang Anshi's disgust.

But now, here's the opportunity.

Zhang Anshi asked how many people in his family were.

Chen Daowen said: "In addition to a few uncles, there are only five people in the family, my father died early, there are four brothers and sisters, my sister is married, two younger brothers, one younger brother works in Qianzhuang, and the other is in the official school. ”

Zhang Anshi smiled very casually and said, "It's about the same as me." ”

Chen Daowen lowered his head to eat, not knowing how to respond.

Zhang Anshi said: "What do you think about this mission?" ”

"Although Beixia has not done any business, but because there are brothers working in the money bank, he also has some insight into business, as long as other people can cooperate, Beixia is quite confident, but he is worried about ......"

Zhang Anshi smiled: "Worried that the other party will not take the bait? ”

Chen Daowen nodded.

Zhang Anshi said: "Don't worry, since I let you go, then there must be my use, as long as you don't show your feet here, you will definitely take the bait." ”

Chen Daowen said: "Humble ......"

"From now on, be skilled, don't always be inferior."

Chen Daowen hurriedly said: "Yes." ”

Zhang Anshi had almost eaten, got up, wiped his mouth and said, "Let's go." ”

Chen Daowen stood up and said respectfully: "I'm humble." ”

He has a bit of the spirit of never looking back, and the complicated emotions before have been swept away, and the only thing to do now is to survive and do what Zhang Anshi explained.

…………

In a Taoist temple,

This Taoist temple is located deep in the mountains and looks extremely inconspicuous.

Someone hurriedly flew to this place, and then he was picked up, and he arrived here.

The man walked through the heavy temple, and then arrived at a cave in the mountain behind the Taoist temple.

In this cave, it is full of incense, and it seems that there are three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry.

There are Taoists along the way.

It's just that these Taoists seem to be carrying weapons.

After entering the cave, I saw an old woman sitting cross-legged on a white lotus-shaped futon, as if meditating and resting.

The man bowed down and said, "I've seen the Buddha's mother." ”

The Mother Buddha looked like an ordinary old woman, but she only raised her eyelids, glanced at the person, and did not say a word.

This man also waited patiently, he knew the rules, and he would not pay attention to him until the Buddha father came.

It's just that the Buddha Mother raised her eyes and took a look, and when the nearby Taoists saw this, they all saluted and withdrew from this huge karst cave.

"Come with me."

The Buddha Mother stood up, her hands floating and sinking, looking thoughtless and selfless, and her voice was extremely cold.

The man bowed his head, quickly stood up, and followed the Buddha into the depths of the cave step by step.

The cave is huge and seems to have undergone special restoration.

The deeper you go, because it's a cave, the slightest sound spreads.

Along the way, there are mostly some magic weapons, as well as various statues of gods with golden bodies, or angry and hideous, or pure and peaceful.

The voices from the depths began to come out.

It seems that someone is chanting the scriptures.

The scriptures recited are jerky and difficult to understand.

But at the same time, the woman's wail was heard.

The sound of chanting became more and more intense, and the woman's wailing became more and more mournful.

The Buddha's mother exhaled, "Is the Dharma finished?" ”

The sound suddenly interrupted the chanting in the depths of the cave.

Only the woman was left with a faint sob.

After a long time, the master who recited the scriptures slowly came out wearing a Taoist robe like a lotus flower.

He lifted his floats, showing a tired appearance, and looked a little prostration.

This person put on a quiet and inactive look, and exclaimed: "These three daughters, the evil obstacle is too heavy. ”

With that, he exhaled a long breath.

The Buddha's mother said: "The big thing is important, but you still don't forget to do it." ”

The person who spoke to him was obviously the Buddha's father, but the Buddha's father was compassionate, and sighed: "Hey, this immortal doesn't want to spoil his cultivation, but these three daughters are too bad, their parents have always been pious, and they have repeatedly lamented to the head of the immortal, and the immortal has the virtue of a good life, how can he not help them?" ”

The Buddha father looked decadent, walked a few steps, and let the boy on the side support him, and then reluctantly sat down on the futon. I opened my eyes and looked at the comer: "There is news in the middle?" ”

"Several Taoists in Zhongdu, after learning the edict of the immortals, immediately took action, carried gunpowder, blew up a hall of enjoyment in the imperial tomb of Zhongdu, and destroyed many spiritual positions in the palace......"

"Good!" The Buddha father was overjoyed and said: "Tell them that they have made great achievements this time, and they will ascend to the immortal realm in the future and receive ten lifetimes of wealth." ”

"Yes."

The Buddha father said: "Since you are here, it is better, when you return to the central capital, pass through Nanjing, and then pass through the will of the immortals, and order the people of all states and counties to meet together, and meet in the fifth day of the fifth month of the year of Wuzi." ”

"Zhu Ming has no way, God can't bear to see the people of the world being brutalized by it, and has issued a decree to me, I White Lotus teaches sentient beings, should punish Zhu Ming, teach the White Lotus Daoists in all states and counties, make preparations, and wait until Zhu Ming is swept away, then the world will be peaceful."

When the Buddha mother heard this, she frowned slightly, but she still stood quietly to the side without saying a word.

The man: "Yes." ”

"You've worked hard." The Buddha father seemed to feel that his body had recovered a little, got up, and looked at the visitor: "Give you Fu Shui, increase your life span by ten years, and after eating Fu Shui, go down the mountain immediately." ”

After hearing this, this person immediately showed a look of gratitude, tears poured down, and he was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and kowtowed: "Thank you for the blessing of the immortals, thank you for the blessings of the immortals." ”

As if mad, he knocked his head on the head and covered it with blood.

The Buddha father only smiled, but his eyes did not fall on him.

After the man bowed, he walked out on his knees, and then he retired excitedly.

At this time, only the Buddha's father, Buddha's mother, and a boy waiting for the Buddha's father were left.

The Buddha's mother said: "Why do you have a branch and want to do a big thing?" Zhu Ming still has an army of millions, and Zhu Di is by no means an extraordinary person, if he really wants to do something, although our manpower is all over the world, there are countless of them, but in the face of the official army, how can he be an opponent? ”

The Buddha father smiled and said: "You don't understand this, originally the immortal and that Zhu Di are at peace, each other's well water does not interfere with the river water, he is his emperor, and I am my immortal." But now, he wants to kill me, and then he has to do something. ”

He sat down cross-legged again and said, "Don't look at our disciples who claim to be millions, but in addition to the hundreds of cronies in this cave mansion, there are also the backbone of the White Lotus Dao people in various states and counties, how many are really willing to die for us, 10,000, 20,000?" What if it's 100,000? What I am most worried about now is not that Zhu Di's dog-footed emperor suppressed my White Lotus Sect, but that they are worried that they will adopt a gentle strategy! ”

"If Huairou only punishes you and me for the first evil, regardless of the rest, even those Taoists, I am afraid that they will each have their own ghosts, but if anyone shakes and sells you, what should I do?"

"Because of this, I taught Liu Daoren to organize manpower and attack Zhu Ming's ancestral tomb first, which has two advantages, one is to cut off the dragon vein of the Zhu family first, so that people in the world can know that the Zhu family's qi is exhausted. The second is to anger Zhu Di and teach him to kill. He was dug up in his ancestral grave, and in his anger, he had to arrest our disciples everywhere and kill people to vent his anger......"

Speaking of this, the Buddha father smiled and said, "The more he kills, the better, kill 10,000, kill 100,000...... Even if it kills a million people. But we still have millions of believers, but with this killing, the disciples know that they have sinned deeply, and if they fall into the hands of the officials and soldiers, they will die without a place to be buried. ”

"There are also those backbones in various states and counties, a few days ago, they must have been unstable, and now that Zhu Ming's ancestral grave has been dug up, they don't dare to think about the future anymore, because they know the consequences of digging Zhu Ming's ancestral grave, even if the imperial court decrees to appease them, they don't dare to believe the imperial court, and they are afraid that they will settle accounts in the future."

"If you don't teach them their fears, they won't die for you." The Buddha said, "Under fear, they are willing to donate more money and make more efforts...... It's just that the only thing I'm worried about is that although Zhu Di was dug up the ancestral grave, although he was angry at this time, it won't take a few days for him to wake up, and it is not a good thing for him to come to his senses. This is the call to the world to teach everyone to prepare for the move. ”

"This matter will definitely reach the imperial court, once there are traitors in all states and counties, think about it, at this time, can Zhu Di still sit still? It's not just a matter of digging graves, it's a matter of losing the country. At that time, the officials and soldiers of the world must do their best to suppress the thieves. ”

"The officials and troops of the world have suppressed my White Lotus Sect, what good is it?" The Buddha's mother frowned, and a sad look appeared in her eyebrows.

The Buddha smiled and said: "This is very beneficial, all dynasties, the thieves only have more and more thieves, because once the official army is dispatched, the official army does not distinguish between right and wrong, and it will inevitably go around to kill evil, where it passes, not a single inch of grass grows, and then we secretly order the White Lotus Sect everywhere, and falsely accuse people everywhere of being the White Lotus Sect, and then I don't know how many ordinary people will die, the more people will die, the more displaced people, the world will be in chaos, and the people will not survive, so I believe in you and me more!" ”

"I, the White Lotus Sect, can not only take advantage of this to attract a wide range of disciples, but also take the opportunity of the officials and soldiers who are tired of fighting for their lives to gather manpower and attack the government and county offices, this world ...... Isn't it the end of the Yuan Dynasty, when the flames burned the plains? ”

The Buddha's mother listened and thought about it.

The Buddha's face was full of joy: "Maybe, I can be the emperor, you can be the queen." ”

The Buddha's mother said: "We are already immortals, what are we doing as this emperor and empress?" ”

The Buddha's father laughed and said, "Have you been making others for a long time, and you have also made yourself a lake?" ”

The Buddha's mother said: "You don't clear the demon obstacles for those women, if you continue like this, you are afraid that your body will not be able to bear it." ”

The Buddha's father said: "If I don't make a move, their father and mother will wash their faces with tears every day, and I am teaching them to feel at ease." ”

After that, he waved his hand, glanced at it and smiled, looked at the boy on the side and said, "Fang Cai's words, do you think it's good to hear it?" ”

The boy said, "Okay." ”

"What a good boy." The Buddha touched his head: "I will give you a pill, and after you eat it, you will ascend to heaven." ”

With that, he took out a red pill from his sleeve.

The boy hesitated and said, "I...... I ......"

But I still took it.

The Buddha's father said with a pleasant face: "Eat quickly, if you eat it, you will be like your father and your sister." ”

Under the smiling gaze of the Buddha's father, the boy finally ate the red pill.

After a while, his face turned purple and he clutched his neck, as if he was out of breath.

The Buddha's father didn't look at him again, but only instructed the Buddha's mother: "Deal with it, don't let the filth pollute the cave." I'll go see if their obstacles have been cleared. ”

As he spoke, the Buddha went to the depths of the cave without looking back.

The boy began to vomit desperately, first with food from his stomach and then with blood.

He grabbed the Buddha Mother in embarrassment and said, "It hurts, I hurt...... ...... vomit"

The Buddha Mother only looked at him coldly: "It'll be fine in a while, it's really pitiful, you have only been here for seven days." ”

The boy then clutched his belly and writhed in the filth, until he finally ...... I kicked my legs and stopped moving.

…………

The entire capital, for more than a month, was under a tense atmosphere.

Several Guogong were divided into Beiping, Sichuan, and Guanzhong.

In the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, only the Marquis of Wu'an is in charge.

The so-called good news and bad news come frequently.

The good news is that there are a number of thieves in the White Lotus today.

The bad news is that more White Lotus Sect members have appeared, and there are even signs of raiding the official mansion.

Jin Yiwei has begun to investigate everywhere, but the effect is not obvious.

Fortunately, with Dongchang in front of the mines, everyone acted much more cautiously, although there were many attacks, but there were not too many casualties.

The Warrior Battalion allocated a section to the Central Capital.

The commander of the local guard station in Fengyang, the central capital, and thousands of households were all investigated and handled, and the eunuchs in it were also re-screened.

In this atmosphere of slaughter, rumors are everywhere.

Fortunately, after Zhu Di was furious, he still maintained the last trace of calm.

Although he arrested a lot of people and sent the roster to Zhu Di one by one, Zhu Di still didn't choose to make a decision, he only took a deep breath, lifted the Zhu pen, and put it down.

These days, I am also very careful.

At this time, Zhu Di sighed and said: "Summoning Wenyuan Pavilion and the ministers of various ministries, let's discuss it again, these three thousand nine hundred and forty-two white lotus remnants that have been arrested...... How exactly to dispose of it. ”

He also said: "The slave obeys the order." ”

Zhu Di said: "What do they think? ”

Yisha thought for a while and said, "Only the Duke of Weiguo...... Say hope for pardon, the rest ......"

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you say about the rest?" ”

"They all said that they wanted to be punished with capital punishment as an example."

Zhu Di frowned and said, "Really? What do you think? ”

Yisha said in fear: "The slave also thinks that it should be punished with death. ”

Zhu Di said: "Why? ”

Yisha said very carefully: "The slave maid is actually the same as Wei Guogong in her heart, she knows that killing them all will not solve the matter, and there are so many sects in the world that they are like cow hairs, can they be killed cleanly?" But the big guys didn't dare to say pardon, because the White Lotus Sect was too presumptuous, and they dared to ...... Dare to be presumptuous in the imperial mausoleum of Zhongdu, it is really bold. Everyone is worried that if a pardon is proposed at this time, it will anger His Majesty, and even ......"

Zhu Di understood that at this time, it was no longer a matter of how to solve the problem, it involved a major issue of right and wrong.

You can't say, Your Majesty, it's nothing if the ancestral grave is dug up, Your Majesty, I'll forget it.

Who knows if Zhu Di will give you a package for the three clans.

Zhu Di said: "Then why did Zhang Anshi propose a pardon?" ”

Yisha didn't think about it and said: "Because Wei Guogong is bold, in addition, His Majesty also trusts him, not to mention...... He is also the prince's brother-in-law, and in His Majesty's heart, no matter what Wei Guogong says or does, he will never have other intentions. ”

"Tomoko is suspicious of neighbors?" Zhu Di asked rhetorically.

Yishu said: "Yes." ”

Zhu Di sighed faintly and said, "These days, I always can't sleep, and I feel sorry for my ancestors and ancestors, hey...... I'm not a good son. ”

Zhu Di said, and sighed heavily, his eyes were a little red: "Emperor Taizu Gao knows that I can't even protect my ancestors, teach them how to rest in peace, hey......"

He shook his head, a look of self-reproach.

Yizha looked at Zhu Di, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, I heard about it...... In the capital, there are many nursery rhymes......"

Zhu Di raised his eyes and said, "What nursery rhyme?" ”

"What is the year of Wuzi, the month of Wuzi, the day of the day, when this White Lotus Sect wants to meet and start an incident, and the world will move."

Zhu Di listened, his eyes widened slightly, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes......

His face turned hideous again.

Zhu Di has always had a very bad temper, which may come from the inheritance of Emperor Taizu Gao.

He has been this emperor, and he has suppressed his temper very much, even if he digs the ancestral grave, after extreme anger, he also maintains a trace of sanity.

But now, he couldn't hold it anymore.

He was like a tiger that was teased again and again until the tiger had to show its fangs.

Zhu Di said: "It seems that they are going to follow the Taiping Dao." ”

Yisha said: "It's just a nursery rhyme......"

"Nope." Zhu Di shook his head and said: "This is not as simple as a nursery rhyme......

Yizha said with a little worry: "Your Majesty ......"

Zhu Di's face was cold, he returned to the imperial eucalyptus and sat down, and lifted the red pen, which hung on the list below.

Drops of vermilion ink began to drip down.

Zhu Di's hands trembled slightly.

He is accustomed to solving problems by force.

Since the choice is to use force, the ...... is now The thousands of people who were arrested were traitors to the party.

It's just that...... Personally collude with so many people, so many people are implicated in it...... How many will there be?

At this moment, a eunuch suddenly stepped in and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

Zhu Di looked up.

The eunuch said: "Nanzhen Fusi...... Nanzhen Fusi ...... Tangled with men, in addition to this, the model battalion was also dispatched. ”

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and said, "Why?" ”

"Wei Guogong reported that the thief has been caught, and he wants to ...... this crime Escorted back to the capital, in order to prevent it from happening, lest their comrades stop it, so the inner thousand households and the model camp poured out. ”

As soon as this statement came out......

The red pen fell on the eucalyptus with a snap.

Zhu Di's face stiffened.

He was also shocked.

Yishu said hurriedly: "I caught a thief, what does this mean?" Didn't there be any sound before? What kind of thief did you catch? ”

The eunuch said, "Actually...... In fact, the slave and maid also don't know about it, so they only say...... What is the Buddha Father and the Buddha Mother...... There are also many backbones of the White Lotus Sect. ”

After hearing this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty...... The world is at peace. ”

As he spoke, Yishaha immediately bowed down and kowtowed to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di was still shocked on his face, he looked incredulous, and said in surprise: "The thief is ...... Really caught? How can it be...... So fast...... Isn't it that these two people are very cunning and have been hiding, even the backbone of the White Lotus Dao people below think that they are divine dragons who can't see the head but the end? ”

Yisha was still kneeling, but his voice was a little more relaxed: "Your Majesty will call the Duke of Weiguo to inquire carefully." Your Majesty, Wei Guogong has always been misguided, and he will never make a mistake. ”

Zhu Di nodded, and immediately said, "Call him." Call him here, this guy...... Always...... What the hell you look like......"

The little eunuch was about to run......

Zhu Di suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute." ”

The little eunuch hurriedly stopped, turned around, and didn't have time to kneel, Zhu Di said: "No, you can't delay his business, it's not easy to go back and forth from Qixia here, if you delay his arrangement and something goes wrong, it's bad." Come...... I'll go, I'll see for myself. ”

Yizha looked uneasy, and persuaded: "Your Majesty...... The wind is tight outside, and I am afraid that there is danger. ”

Zhu Di said: "This so-called sect members, but there are more people, but most of them are rabble, they are hidden, if they really dare to come out of their heads, it is not enough to kill a million." ”

Seeing that Yi Shiha was still worried, after a pause, Zhu Di said again: "Adjust more Praetorian Guards, and the ministers of the sect will also accompany you." ”

Yisha thought about it, nodded, and then said, "Yes, the slave obeys the order." ”

Soon, the whole palace was in chaos. Immediately after, there were thousands of warrior battalions and Yulin Wei who were drawn out to open the way. Zhu Di led hundreds of guards, and Pegasus went out from the Ming Gate.

I heard that the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect was captured.

Hu Guang and Yang Rong of Wenyuan Pavilion were very surprised.

In fact, they are already very worried about the current situation.

It's like a powder keg, burning a little bit.

Along the way, the two of them also rode on horseback, and on the horse, Hu Guang couldn't help but mutter: "The world is so big, how can the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect be such a figure who can see the head and the tail of the dragon, how can he find out his traces in just over a month, this is really a little hard to believe." ”

Yang Rong also felt strange and said, "Don't worry about it for now, everything will be known when you see Zhang Anshi." ”

Hu Guang nodded: "If you can really catch the bandit leader, then it will be better, the world will be lucky." ”

…………

Had a good night's sleep and was much more comfortable, thank you for your understanding.
