Chapter 311: The White Lotus Sect's Ambition
Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but pull Chang Sheng away, Chang Sheng couldn't resist his eldest nephew, so he had to smile bitterly and be dragged away.
However, as soon as the two of them left Ying Tianfu, they were almost hit by a group of knights.
Fortunately, Chang Sheng reacted quickly and pulled Zhu Yunxi back. Otherwise, even if Zhu Yunxi is not trampled by the war horse, he will have to eat the ashes of his nose.
Zhu Yunxi was just about to reprimand those who rode horses, when he heard an urgent shout from the back of the horse.
"Military!"
"100,000 urgent!"
"Get out of the way!"
Zhu Yunxi heard this, and said with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Second uncle, do you think this is the military situation on my uncle's side?"
Chang Sheng stared at the back of the horse, then nodded.
"Like!"
"This team of knights is a border army, maybe it's really your uncle's messenger......
Zhu Yunxi smiled indifferently when he heard this.
"Hey!"
"My uncle and grandfather are the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, and no one in the world can beat him!"
"Let's ignore him, let's go home quickly!"
Chang Sheng heard the word "go home" again, and a trace of eagerness rose in his heart.
"Good!"
"Let's go home!"
When Zhu Yunxi led Chang Sheng back to Kaiping Palace, the people of Kaiping Palace were already waiting at the gate.
When they saw Zhu Yunxi's car coming, they fell down in the dust one after another, kowtowing to Zhu Yunxi's frame.
Seeing this, Zhu Yunxi hurriedly got out of the car and helped several aunts of the Chang family.
"What are the aunts doing here, we are all our own family, so we don't have to make this big gift!"
Chang Mao's widow Feng Shi looked at Zhu Yunxi and smiled shyly.
"Thanks to the help of the Third Emperor Sun this time, otherwise the Second Uncle's life would definitely be lost, and the Third Emperor Sun would be worthy of our great gift."
"Sister-in-law is right, the third emperor grandson is the lifesaver of our Chang family, the third emperor grandson said what you want to eat, I will cook for you......
The two daughters-in-law of the Chang family were all smiling, but only Chang Sen's wife looked sad and sobbed twice from time to time.
Because his husband left the house on the day he beat him, and he hasn't come back until now.
Before, everyone was busy caring about Chang Sheng, and no one cared about their husband.
Now that Chang Sheng has been released, the stupid Chang Sen of their family is still locked up in the Jinyiwei prison, how can this be a bit unspeakable, right?
Feng Shi saw the three brothers and sisters crying, and his face showed displeasure.
Today is a happy day for the Chang family, my brother and sister are too ignorant, how can they put on such a face?
"Come on, help the third lady go back to her room to rest."
"No!"
"I don't!"
"Third Emperor Sun, can you please ask Your Majesty to let your Majesty let my family Chang Sen go, woo woo woo ......
When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he immediately looked puzzled.
"Has the third uncle been arrested as well?"
"When did this happen, why didn't Lone know?"
The second tiger laughed when he heard this.
"Don't worry about the three emperors, don't worry about the brothers and sisters of the Chang family."
"Chang Sen was detained by His Majesty in Jinyiwei, and looking at His Majesty's meaning, he may have plans to leave Chang Sen in Jinyiwei, hahaha......
A few people were talking, only to see a fast horse running on the street, and when the fast horse ran to the front of everyone, everyone was pleasantly surprised to find that the person on horseback was not Chang Sen, the third elder of the Chang family?
Chang Sen was wearing a gorgeous flying fish suit, with an embroidered spring knife on his waist, and his face was full of spring breeze pride.
Chang Sen's daughter-in-law was stunned when she saw her husband dressed like this.
She had never seen her man so heroic, so rich and powerful.
"Husband, what are you?"
Chang Sen laughed and jumped off the horse and stepped forward to hug him
picked up his daughter-in-law and happily turned around several times.
"Madame!"
"Now we are the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard from the third grade, hahaha!"
"Huh?"
This sudden happiness directly shook Chang Sen's daughter-in-law almost dizzy.
You know, before this, his husband was a horse breeder who couldn't rank up, and now he has become the commander of the brocade guard?
Although this commander is a deputy, it looks countless times stronger than raising horses!
When the people of the Chang family heard the news, they were all overjoyed and happy for Chang Sen from the bottom of their hearts.
Jinyiwei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and Chang Sen can be the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, so he must be trusted by His Majesty the Emperor.
Only the second tiger smiled ambiguously and mysteriously.
Because he knew that the so-called deputy commanders were just transitions, and the ultimate goal of the emperor was to let Chang Sen replace Jiang Zhen and become the real commander of Jinyiwei!
For a sharp knife like Jinyiwei, only in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor's closest confidants, His Majesty the Emperor will rest assured!
Now His Majesty the Emperor's only concern is the Three Emperors' Suns, so naturally he will transfer the rights to the Three Emperors and Suns little by little, so that the Three Emperors and Suns can grasp the rights little by little and have a certain ability to protect themselves.
Chang Sen is the next commander selected by the emperor for the three emperors and grandsons, so that he can escort the three emperors and grandsons wholeheartedly!
The second tiger sent the second master of the Chang family back to the Kaiping Palace, and led a group of people back to the palace to resume their lives.
As for the distribution, there is a response from the officials of the Heavenly Mansion.
But in principle, a delay of three or five days is not a big deal, not to mention that Chang Sheng has such a good nephew as the third emperor grandson.
The second tiger returned to the palace, and just wanted to find a pillar to take a nap, he heard the sound of the emperor throwing things from the main hall.
Erhu walked in to take a look, only to see the emperor holding a piece of folding in his hand, and the ground was full of porcelain fragments.
"Emperor, but what's wrong?"
Lao Zhu saw that it was the second tiger, and angrily threw the fold in his hand out.
"See for yourself!"
Erhu looked at the emperor's face, and then carefully picked it up.
Erhu's face also became solemn after seeing the twists and turns.
"Emperor, the army of the Duke of Liang Guo has been infected with the wind and cold epidemic?"
Lao Zhu snorted when he heard this.
"Who knows if it's true or not, maybe Lan Yu's guy said this on purpose, under the pretext that he wouldn't come back from the frontier when the wind was cold!"
Although the second tiger couldn't get used to Lan Yu's arrogance, when he heard the emperor's words, he also had a question mark in his heart.
"No, Duke Liang Guo is still loyal to the emperor, and he shouldn't do such a rebellious thing!"
"And the signatures of this fold are Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan, and Zhang Yi, Marquis of Heshou, these two people know that if it weren't for the urgency of 100,000, they wouldn't dare to write for the Duke of Liangguo!"
Lao Zhu heard Erhu say this, and his face was slightly better. But at the thought of the 100,000 army infected with the epidemic, his face darkened again.
Relatively speaking, he would rather Lan Yu rebel than have an epidemic in the army.
Although diseases such as wind and cold are very common, at this time, the cold winter of Datong Mansion turns into ice. The soldiers have this disease, and there is basically only one way to die!
It's not easy, his 100,000 army will not be swallowed up by this wind and cold epidemic in a short time!
When Lao Zhu thought of the 100,000 army suffering from disease on the border, his heart was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
"Emperor, the young master seems to have a very good way to deal with the epidemic, do you want to call the young master into the palace to discuss countermeasures?"
"If the young master has a way to control the epidemic, it will be good to reduce the losses in the army!"
Lao Zhu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly ordered someone to invite Zhu Yunxi.
While Lao Zhu was anxiously waiting for his eldest grandson, Zhu Yunwen of the Prince's Mansion had just gotten into the carriage and planned to take his concubine to the palace to relax.
Since the death of the crown princess from a violent illness, no one in the huge prince's mansion can manage it
He's gone, he can do whatever he wants.
Although Zhu Yunwen was also sad for a few days and cried a few tears for his mother, he really couldn't be sad when he thought of what his mother did.
The dignified princess of the Ming Dynasty actually colluded with gangsters to bring the smallpox virus into the capital and into the palace.
What does the mother concubine want to do, do you want the Ming Dynasty to die?
Therefore, today Xiao Manyi proposed that he wanted to go to the Xitian Temple outside the city, saying that the Bodhisattva there was the most effective and wanted to go there to ask for a child.
Zhu Yunwen was noncommittal about this, but smiled and said yes.
In fact, he had long known from the Imperial Doctor that Xiao Man would have a hard time conceiving in this life.
Because when she was very young, she was fed sterilization medicine by the people of the Teaching Workshop Division.
It's just that he couldn't bear to tell her, for fear that she would be sad.
They left the capital and soon came to the Xitian Temple.
Zhu Yunwen didn't have much interest in praying to God and worshiping Buddha, and after sending Xiaoman into the Daxiong Treasure Hall, he was alone in the temple to relax.
However, he had not been gone long before he saw a familiar figure.
When Zhu Yunwen saw this person, a chill flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly ordered the guards to come forward and catch the person.
Just after Zhu Yunwen sent out the guards, he only felt that it was dark in front of him, and the whole person fell into a coma.
When he woke up again, he was already lying in a clean meditation room, and the person sitting in front of him was the woman he had ordered his guards to capture.
"I know you!"
"My mother has done such a great rebellion, and she has been instigated by you!"
Hearing this, Han Yushang turned around and smiled faintly at Zhu Yunwen.
"Cousin is fine, cousin is polite!"
Han Yushang lived like a lost dog during this time, and when the Jinyi Guard was all over the city, the hidden members of their White Lotus Sect in the capital were almost wiped out.
If she hadn't been very careful and never contacted the sect members in the capital with her true face, she would have been arrested and put in prison by Jinyiwei.
Even so, she is having a very difficult time now, and she urgently needs to find a new backer.
It's just that Zhu Yunwen can be trusted?
Zhu Yunwen knew this person, and this person was the White Lotus Sect demon girl who planted human pox for herself and infected herself with smallpox.
But he didn't have a good impression of this person, but had a strong hatred, and felt that the death of his mother was instigated by these people.
"Lone is the king of Ming Huai, how can I call you a brother and sister to a demon girl?"
"If you let go of Lone now, Lone will never see you, and he won't trouble you in the future!"
"It's the matter of you bewitching Lone's mother and concubine, and Lone can not mention a word!"
Han Yushang laughed when she heard this.
"Cousin, do you really think that I instigated the crown princess to do such a thing?"
A hint of suspicion flashed on Zhu Yunwen's face.
"Isn't it?"
Han Yushang shook her head with a wry smile and said.
"Of course not!"
"In fact, your mother just heard that someone in Beijing was infected with smallpox, and she was worried about your brothers, so she specially invited me to enter the palace to plant pox vaccines for you, so that you would not be killed by smallpox!"
"Zhu Yunxi, that thief, didn't understand anything, and thought that smallpox had spread to the palace, so he ordered someone to block the prince's mansion!"
"Later, all the crimes of smallpox infection in the capital were blamed on the crown princess, and your mother was slaughtered by Zhu...... Brutally killed by your imperial grandfather!"
"Do you know how your mother died?"
"According to our people in Jinyiwei, your mother was tortured by Jinyiwei in various ways, and finally was cut with 10,000 knives, and only a skeleton of bones was left on her body!"
Zhu Yunwen was terrified when he heard it, and tears flowed down his eyes uncontrollably.
"Shut up!"
"Say no more!"
"I don't listen!"
"The imperial grandfather won't treat his mother like that, absolutely not, woowoo woo......
Han Yushang said in a demagogic voice.
"Why don't you dare to listen, do you also think that your mother died a miserable death?"
"You say you don't believe it with your mouth, but you believe it in your heart......
"If the Zhu butcher dares to peel the skin of the people of the world, won't he cut your mother and concubine with a thousand knives?"
"What's more, his good grandson Zhu Yunxi hates your mother, your imperial grandfather has always wanted to make Zhu Yunxi the emperor's grandson, in order to avoid the matter of the son and the mother being strong, isn't it logical to kill your mother?"
Zhu Yunwen shook his head vigorously and said.
"I don't listen!"
"Grandpa Huang will indeed kill his mother, but he will definitely not be so ruthless!"
"The emperor's grandfather also ordered someone to bury his mother's concubine, at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain......
"At the foot of Zhongshan Mountain?"
Han Yushang laughed when she heard this.
"Silly cousin!"
"It's just an empty coffin!"
"Your mother's body has long been crushed by the Zhu butcher and scattered all over the mountains!"
"If you don't believe me, I'll take you to your mother's grave, where there is a hole that the grave robbers just dug and there's nothing in the coffin......
When Zhu Yunwen saw Han Yushang say this, he already believed a little in his heart, but he already had a fluke.
"You're lying to me!"
"You must be lying to me!"
Seeing that Zhu Yunwen still refused to believe it, Han Yushang pointed to the door and said.
"If you don't believe it, go out of here in a while and go straight to the foot of Zhongshan Mountain, where I will wait for you!"
"When you see your mother's coffin, you'll know who to believe!"
After Han Yushang said this, he walked out of the room, Zhu Yunwen waited for a while, and saw that Han Yushang had not come back for a long time, so he had the courage to walk out as well.
There was no one outside the door, only the shouts of a few guards.
"Second Emperor Sun, where are you?"
"Second Emperor's grandson?"
Zhu Yunwen hurriedly shouted at the guards.
"Alone here!"
The guards followed Zhu Yunwen's voice and soon came to the small courtyard where Zhu Yunwen was.
Everyone was relieved to see that Zhu Yunwen was safe and sound.
"Second Emperor Sun, why did you come here, let the lowly rank wait for a while to find it!"
Zhu Yunwen smiled embarrassedly.
"Lonely covets the beauty of this place, so he walks and walks here."
"By the way, how long has it been since you've been alone?"
"It won't be long, just about a stick of incense, right?"
"By the way, the lowly rank is incompetent, I failed to catch that woman, and I hope that the second emperor and grandson will forgive the sin!"
Zhu Yunwen shook his head with a smile and said.
"It's okay!"
"I'm going to pay tribute to my mother in a while, you go buy some incense and candle offerings for me."
"No!"
An hour later, Zhu Yunwen's car came to the foot of Zhongshan Mountain.
In order not to expose the relationship between Han Yushang and himself, Zhu Yunwen withdrew everyone and went up the mountain alone with incense, candles, tributes and other things.
Zhu Yunwen came once when his mother was buried, and at that time he just felt that his mother's tomb was too shabby and felt worthless for his mother.
At that time, he secretly swore in his heart that when he became a feudal lord in the future, he would definitely send someone to secretly dig up the body of his mother and take it to his fief for burial.
Now that he had revisited the old place and saw the barren grass around the tomb, he only felt an irrepressible sadness coming, which made him kneel down in front of the tomb and cry bitterly at his mother's stone tablet.
"The child is unfilial, and he failed to save his mother from the hands of the emperor's grandfather, so that the mother concubine suffered such humiliation, woo woo woo ......
When Zhu Yunwen was crying vigorously, he suddenly felt someone pat him on the shoulder.
Zhu Yunwen didn't raise his head, just wiped his tears, and then replied lightly.
"You're here......
Han Yushang said softly.
"You're still trustworthy, and you didn't bring a guard up the mountain."
"So you still believe me!"
Zhu Yunwen snorted coldly.
"Lonely people don't believe it!"
"I don't believe that Grandpa Huang is that kind of person!"
Han Yushang knew that this was a child's hard mouth, and she didn't distinguish between Zhu Yunwen, but just led him to the back of the tomb and kicked away the pile of weeds scattered on the ground.
"This is the Cave of Thieves."
"If you have the guts, climb in from here, and go into the tomb and see."
"This ......"
A trace of hesitation flashed in Zhu Yunwen's eyes, he was indeed a little timid, afraid that there would be ghosts or something like that. But when he thought that his mother might be sentenced to death, tortured to death, and was crushed by the emperor's grandfather after death, he felt a heartache in his heart.
"I'm not afraid!"
Zhu Yunwen said this while crawling into the thief hole, climbed two feet away only to feel that the front was spacious, and then the whole person was planted in the tomb.
Immediately after, there was another sound of rustling behind him, and soon another person jumped out of the thief hole.
Zhu Yunwen was not used to the dark environment, but soon there was a bright light in front of him.
Han Yushang took out a candle from his sleeve and lit it, then put it on the coffin and said.
"See for yourself!"
"The coffin has been opened, and there's nothing in it."
Zhu Yunwen followed the bright light and looked over, only to see that the coffin was really empty, and there was not even a trace of a burial......
But he still didn't give up and asked a very stupid question.
"Could it be that the tomb robbers stole the body of the concubine?"
Han Yushang smiled coldly when she heard this.
"Do you believe it?"
"It took a hard time for the two of us to get in that hole just now, do you think the tomb robbers are full of food, or are they too idle to do anything and steal a corpse?"
"At best, they will take away your mother's clothes, and they will not be interested in corpses!"
"The reason why your mother's coffin is so empty is because Zhu Butcher deliberately did it for you to see, and he didn't want you to seek revenge from Zhu Yunxi!"
When Zhu Yunwen heard this, he only felt a "boom" in his brain, and his whole brain fell into chaos.
"What about my mother?"
Han Yushang pointed to the top of his head.
"Didn't I tell you a long time ago, your mother and concubine have already been cut by your imperial grandfather with a thousand knives, broken bones and ashes, and scattered in this mountain and wilderness."
"If you worship your mother, you only need to worship Zhongshan in front of Zhongshan, and your mother's concubine will naturally be able to sense it if she has a spirit in the sky."
"Ahhh......h
Han Yushang crawled out of the cave and sat on the edge of the cave listening to the wails coming from inside, with a smug smile on her face.
Although the crown princess is dead, they still have a spokesperson for the White Lotus Sect, and they are more suitable than the crown princess!
Zhu Yunwen cried in the hole for a long time, and cried until he couldn't breathe before climbing up the hole.
Zhu Yunwen, who came outside again, looked dull, as if he had lost his soul.
"What does Lone have to do to avenge his mother?"
"Be the Emperor!"
"Only when you become emperor can you avenge your mother and your mother's family!"
"To be the emperor?"
Once upon a time, Zhu Yunwen also had this fantasy.
However, with the strong rise of Zhu Yunxi, he has long given up this thought, thinking of being a free prince with peace of mind.
"You can't do it alone......"
"Grandpa Huang doesn't like me at all, and I'm not as smart as Zhu Yunxi......
"You can!"
"As long as you listen to me, I promise you can become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
"You?"
Zhu Yunwen
looked at Han Yusheng, and the corners of his mouth showed helplessness and mockery.
"Let's go!"
"I don't want to see you again......
Han Yushang secretly scolded Zhu Yunwen for being a waste, but he still persuaded him step by step.
"I'm the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect!"
"Your mother is my mother's cousin, you should call me cousin......
"Of course you can't rely on it alone, but if there is the White Lotus Sect and I assist you, you can naturally compete with Zhu Yunxi!"
"Moreover, as long as the time is ripe, I will naturally get rid of Zhu Yunxi for you!"
"As long as Zhu Yunxi dies, who in the world do you think can compete with you?"
When Zhu Yunwen heard this, a trace of hope finally rose in his heart.
If the other party is really a White Lotus Sect and is willing to help him, then he really has a chance of winning.
"What do you want, you won't let me be a puppet, will you?"
"Declare in advance, Lone would rather not fight, and will not be your puppet!"
"You think too much, we don't need you to be a puppet, we just need you to establish the White Lotus Sect as the state religion, the third religion of the Ming Dynasty after Buddhism!"
"There is a lack of a female official in the lonely palace!"
"Thank you, cousin!"
"But now that the Jinyi Guards are arresting me all over the city, I won't enter the palace, and I can send a message through Xiaoman......
