After saying these words, Zhu Zhen got up and left the table.

A group of big families in the south of the Yangtze River hurriedly sent His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and when his guard of honor disappeared on the stone steps down the mountain for a long time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The sense of oppression that His Royal Highness gave them was really beyond imagination......

Everyone didn't have the heart to sit down anymore, and looked at Xie Yunzhang one after another.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I said everything I needed to say yesterday." Xie Yunzhang said: "Don't worry about going home for the New Year, the sky is falling and it is high." ”

"Yes, yes." Everyone nodded, and the afterglow glanced at Lu Zhonghe. I saw Pingjiang Gong's eyes closed, slightly tilting his head, like a wood carving standing by the river for a hundred years, revealing decay in the quiet.

His Royal Highness the King of Chu hit him too hard, can this golden beam in the south of the Yangtze River still withstand it?

"Don't worry, the old man hasn't seen any storms?" Feeling everyone's gaze, Lu Zhonghe slowly opened his eyes and said, "Everything is under control." ”

"Okay, then we'll rest assured." All the big families settled down a little, and they all gave up their hands and went back to their respective homes.

"Pingjiang Gong......" Xie Yunzhang supported the crumbling Lu Zhonghe.

"The old man has never suffered such a great shame in his life," Lu Zhonghe whispered to him as he walked out slowly, "I will kill myself when I go back." ”

"Ah, no, it's not ......" Xie Yunzhang exclaimed: "Throwing people into the porridge pot like this is something that Xia Wei Yin can do." Others will only say that the King of Chu is cruel, and will not laugh at Pingjiang Gong. ”

"No, you're mistaken." Lu Zhonghe shook his head and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I just said that I wanted to commit suicide, but I didn't say that I wanted to die." ”

"Oh, that's ......" Xie Yunzhang understood.

Pingjiang Gong's suicide with one hand does have many benefits, one is that it can save his reputation, and the other is that it can cause great pressure on the king of Chu.

Especially after Ye Boju's death, the government and the opposition are holding back the fire. Lu Zhonghe added fuel to the fire at this time, ensuring that the king of Chu would become the target of everyone.

"It would be great if the emperor could not allow the sixth child to toss the city boss again." Liting Gong couldn't help but think.

"Look, it doesn't matter if he doesn't do it, no one wants to do it anyway!" Lu Zhonghe slammed his fist on the frame of the car, and said with resentment: "The old man's life is gone!" ”

~~

Jinshan Temple.

In front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, after the birds and beasts scattered, only one place was left in a mess.

The gray-robed monks began to pick up the pieces. The presiding officer in a yellow robe, with a fat monk in a brown robe, stood on the Cishou Pagoda and watched the fleet of His Royal Highness the King of Chu set sail.

"Daoyan, you came to Zhenjiang just to eat a bowl of laba porridge from a poor monk?" The presiding mage Kuwu asked lightly.

"I have long heard that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is going to hold a Laba banquet here for his senior brother, and of course the poor monk wants to come and see the excitement." Monk Daoyan nodded, frankly annoying. "It's really worth the trip."

"Is it just to see the excitement?" Master Kuwu smiled faintly and asked, "Don't you see any doorways?" ”

"The doorway, I can see a little bit of it." Dao Yan took out an oily pig's trotter from his sleeve and was glared at by his senior brother.

"The Buddha Gate is pure."

"For you." Dao Yan smiled and handed the hoof to his senior brother.

"Out of sight is out of sight." Ju Wu took it without squinting.

"And this one." Dao Yan took out a wine gourd again.

"There is such a good thing, don't take it out early." Juwu counted him down, and then on the tower where there was no one else, he happily ate meat and drank wine.

"Enjoyable ......" A hoof and a pot of wine went down, and Juwu's face was a lot ruddy. He sucked his finger and said, "You said that the master is obviously a Taoist priest, why did you let us be monks in the first place?" The rules and precepts in the temple are too boiling, and they don't even have to eat meat. ”

"Didn't Master say that?" Dao Yan gnawed on the pig's trotters and said vaguely: "The eldest husband can't be a big name, that is, he must escape into the empty door to be saved." ”

"Yes." Ju Wu sighed and said: "What we have learned here is the science of power and strategy of vertical and horizontal, and attacking and killing together. If we were born ten years earlier, we should be supplemented by a master and achieve a career like Wang Jingluo and Su Lingxuan. ”

"It's a pity that we haven't left the school yet, Zhu Hongwu has already pacified the world, and the sea is unified. As a result, our knowledge has become a dragon slaying technique, and if we don't escape into the empty door, we can only fight against thieves. Dao Yan smiled bitterly:

"It's a pity that I can't be a monk as a junior brother, and I am still in the capital to place orders, and I don't have an official monk."

"That's because your requirements are too high, if you come to my Jinshan Temple, my senior brother will leave you a monk." Enlightenment.

"Coming to you? Do you really want to be a monk for life? Dao Yan asked rhetorically: "Eat fasting and chant Buddha all your life?" ”

"It's good to get used to it, burp ......," Kugo said with a wine and meat burp, looking intoxicated.

"I still want to see it again, it's so easy to come to the world for a long time, and learn the skills of this body, is it so silent from life to death, leaving no mark at all?!" On Dao Yan's cynical face, a strong touch of stubbornness and unwillingness appeared.

"Well, you're forty." Kugo shook his head and sighed.

"The late bloomer of different materials has to wait, and it is actually promoted to the Ding Nai. You don't see the veteran of the Zhou family, Taigongwang, eighty Hou Qi fishing fishing! Dao Yan held the pig's trotters in his hand, and said loudly with vigor: "I am only half the age of Jiang Taigong, so it's early!" ”

"Okay, you have ambition." Ju Wu smiled, no longer persuaded him, and asked again: "You haven't said yet, what kind of door did you see this time?" ”

"This time." Dao Yan gloated and said: "That group of arrogant and selfish Jiangnan bigwigs are going to be unlucky. Those who don't hurry up to take refuge in the sixth child will all suffer! ”

"Hmm." Ju Wu nodded in agreement and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu asked them to write a letter of guarantee, that is, let them dig a pit and jump in by themselves." ”

As he spoke, he said incredulously: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen it for so many years, who treats these big families in Jiangnan as grandsons...... Even Emperor Hongwu is also very jealous of those people. I really know that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. ”

"What tiger is not a tiger? A group of paper tigers. With these big families in Jiangnan, you have to step on them under your feet like this, otherwise they will kick their noses and faces! You have to clean them up every once in a while before they can obey. Dao Yan disagreed:

"Anyway, their family has a big business, and they are very enduring, and no matter how much they toss, they can't force them to go against them. At most, it's just hiding behind and provoking the people to make trouble...... Just put the knife on their necks and be honest immediately. ”

"You, aren't you also from Suzhou?" Kugo shook his head speechlessly.

"But my family is not a big family." Dao Yan smiled and said, "If my family is big, I won't be a monk." I live in the green building every day, I ......"

"What about His Royal Highness the King of Chu?" Kugo asked again.

"Interesting, this person is so interesting, how old is this? In the future, it will surely turn the earth upside down. Dao Yan said with a look of regret: "It's a pity that Liu Bowen took the lead, and the old man won't allow me to approach him." ”

"If he doesn't allow you, don't you dare to do it?" The senior brother smiled: "Besides, the decision is up to His Highness, and it's not Liu Bowen." ”

"Well, I'm looking for a chance to get in touch with him." Dao Yan also said with this intention: "Playing with such an interesting character, this day is interesting." ”
