These days, inside and outside the palace, there are rumors all over Beijing about Shi Kefa's entry into the palace to face the saint.

"Zhu Tianzi secretly issued a decree to authorize Nanjing, and Shi Kefa scattered everyone to paint in their sleeves."

"The queen mother listened to the government and reprimanded Shi Kefa for shaking the country!"

"Nanjing Donglin dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, wanting to send Jinyi Wei into the palace to rescue the emperor!"

"Shi Kefa conspired to make a big deal to threaten the release of the Duke of Qi to the Son of Heaven."

and so on, and so on.

Some of them are as if they had seen them, some of them are exaggerated and eye-catching, and some of them are implicit and implicit.

In the past few days, the front page headlines of the Beijing Mansion newspaper have relied on these topics to increase sales.

It has also become a topic of conversation after dinner.

Of course, Shi Kefa didn't care about these things, he just wanted to do something.

As for the rumors?

Let him go!

The sedan car stopped at the gate of Donghua, and Shi Kefa looked up at the gate of Donghua Gate, which had been renovated.

Here, four months ago, there was also a palace change, Yang Changsi, Zhang Shenyan and others planned it single-handedly, but they were driven back to the city by Wang Qi at the last moment, and completely reversed.

Thinking about it now, Shi Kefa also feels a little pity - just one step away!

It doesn't matter, though.

Retracting his gaze and taking a deep breath, Shi Kefa stepped forward and entered the Donghua Gate.

At this time, inside and outside the entire imperial city, countless eyes were paying attention to this place.

Today is the first time that Wang Qi has met with the emperor since Shi Kefa met with him.

Many people want to know, how far does the Duke of Qi Guo, who is almost covering the sky with one hand, want to go?

The regent of the country, maintaining the status quo, and dividing the north and south to govern the river?

Or is it the army pressing the border, unifying the north and the south, and ascending to the great treasure?

Today's meeting may reveal a hint of clues.

Led by the waiter, Shi Kefa bypassed the three corridors and arrived at Wang Qi's office.

A south-facing, side-by-side three-room room.

In appearance, I don't see anything special.

However, Shi Kefa knew in his heart that the orders that determined the direction of the Ming Empire were all issued from here, and then radiated to the provinces, and then to all parts of the country.

In any case, in the face of Wang Qi, Shi Kefa will not have the slightest contempt.

"My lord, Master Shi has arrived!" The waiter whispered outside the door.

"Please come in," Wang Qi's voice came.

The door opened, without the slightest sound, and the waiter leaned sideways to invite Shi Kefa into the room.

Similar to the scene of the last meeting with Liu Ding, Wang Qi sat on the chair with his back back, looking at Shi Kefa who entered the room and looked around, with a smile in his eyes, and in the center was a vat of winter cellar ice, which was the most suitable to relieve the heat and cool down.

"The meeting with the emperor, did it go well?" As soon as they met, Wang Qi opened his mouth to ask about the boiling rise in recent days, and at the same time pushed the teacup in front of him, and Wang Qi filled himself with another cup.

"Your Majesty is like this now, I don't know what the use of the sixth prince of Qi is for? It's better to have me escort you back to Nanjing to calm the hearts of the people in the world," Shi Kefa sat opposite Wang Qi, didn't move the teacup, just looked at Wang Qi for a moment.

What does it look like today?

The irony of the gun and the stick, Wang Qi didn't care, and smiled.

"To calm the hearts of the people in the world, it's not just a matter of talking," Wang Qi shook his head, leaned back in his chair, and took a good time: "To come up with a practical plan, the name of the emperor is in my hands, to be honest, it is much more useful than in your hands!" ”

"A coup d'état, after all, is nameless and pointless, and it will not last long," Shi Kefa pointed out the core loophole of Wang Qi's new policy: "Without the authority of heaven, if you integrate the provinces by force, you will be counterattacked in the end." ”

"Yes, no name and no point!" I don't know what I thought, Wang Qi also sighed, and then smiled: "But it doesn't matter, there is time, ten years is not enough, then twenty years, twenty years is not enough, fifty years is not enough, one day, the fig leaf of the emperor and the ministers of heaven will be torn off." ”

Shi Kefa looked at Wang Qi and didn't speak for a long time.

"You Nanjing City want the emperor, it's nothing more than worrying that the name is not right," Wang Qi knocked on the table and said, "I empathize." ”

"Nanjing City has promised, as long as the Duke of Qi can be released to the emperor, anything can be discussed, titles, official ranks, acres of land, silver money, and even the king with a different surname who has divided the territory, there is no need!" Shi Kefa was still trying to sit on the last stand.

However, those conditions, when they came out of his mouth and fell on Wang Qi's ears, he couldn't even be shocked.

To be honest, Wang Qi doesn't look down on these nominal things at all.

Wang Qi has everything that Nanjing City can give, and it is the sum of real multiples.

There is no need for Nanjing to admit anything at all.

"I just want the emperor!" Shi Kefa bowed slightly, leaned forward, and looked at Wang Qi, as if pleading, but also like a threat.

"The reason why I agreed to Nanjing City to send a delegation to Beijing this time," Wang Qi ignored Shi Kefa's actions, just got up with his hands behind his back and walked to a map: "There is nothing wrong with the courtiers coming to see the monarch's father, it makes sense; Second, I want to take this opportunity to let Nanjing City see what has happened in Beijing in half a year, and your perception can change. ”

"What a magnificent map of the territory!" Wang Qi praised: "Divided into two, it's not good after all." ”

His eyes narrowed slightly, Shi Kefa didn't understand the meaning of Wang Qi's words, he just nodded and said, "Ancestor Jiangshan Sheji, how can he be peaceful?" ”

Hey!

Wang Qi turned his head and looked at Shi Kefa: "You know, it's fine." ”

Shi Kefa got up when he heard this, and said hurriedly: "Duke Qi Guogong, you used to be favored by the emperor, but now like this, is your conscience really at ease?" ”

Immature!

Plus naivety!

Learn from your teacher's left legacy, learn a shape, and have no bones at all!

Wang Qi raised his hand to stop Shi Kefa's words, obviously not wanting to talk to Shi Kefa anymore:

"Okay, you have met me today, I already know what you mean, and I also represent the attitude of the Council of Seven, the emperor you can't take it away, if you want to stay in Beijing City for a long time, you can stay longer, if you don't want to stay, you can leave at any time."

After that, Wang Qi waved his hand: "Come on, send Master Shi out!" ”

"Wang Qi, you will regret it!" This time, Shi Kefa is a real threat.

"Oh?" Wang Qi stood there with his hands behind his back, looking at Shi Kefa like a child: "Master Shi, please go back." ”

At this moment, outside the Donghua Gate.

"Master Shi is out!"

"So fast?"

"What did the two of you talk about?"

In less than half an hour, Shi Kefa came out of Wang Qi's office.

This disappointed the people and scholars who gathered outside the Donghua Gate and waited for the news.

The two of them don't have any energetic remarks?

Or, a big fight?

The editor of Di Bao was crowded at the front of the crowd at this moment, looking at Shi Kefa, who had already come out of the Donghua Gate and was about to get into the sedan chair, and seized the opportunity to shout: "Master Shi, is the Duke of Qi allowed to welcome the saint to Nanjing?" ”

Shi Kefa, who was already about to get into the sedan chair, paused, turned his head to look at the editor, and said: "The holy drive back to Nanjing is the proper meaning, the son of heaven and the ministers and the father and son are constant, and there is absolutely no damage!" ”

"That means there's no talk?" The editor has been immersed in this Tao for decades, and Shi Kefa, the way of nature, said to him left and right, and asked directly to the core.

"Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people," Shi Kefa arched his hand towards the people: "Everyone, let's go and see!" ”

As soon as Shi Kefa's words came out, he immediately detonated the entire Donghua Gate.

You must know that the last madman who was so arrogant in Donghuamen has become the soul of Qi Guogong's sword.

This Shi Kefa, presumably wanted to try whether Qi Guogong's knife edge was sharp?

At this moment, on the upper floor of Donghua Gate, Wang Tiqian and Wang Huazhen stood side by side, looking at Shi Kefa, who had already sat in a sedan chair and slowly left, they all sneered.

"Our family doesn't understand, why didn't the chief lord let us meet that Shi Kefa," Wang Tiqian put his hands on his sleeves and stood there, looking at Shi Kefa's distant sedan chair, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"My lord has his own arrangements, you and I will go in and talk about it," Wang Huazhen sighed twice: "I just don't know, in order to rescue the emperor, will Shi Kefa be willing to take risks and do such a disaster?" ”

"As you said, everything is under the control of Qi Guogong," Wang Tiqian smiled: "I'll just watch the performance of the jumping clown." ”

At this time, the chief council residence.

Li Qingsong had already come to Wang Qi.

"From now on, stare at Shi Kefa," Wang Qi sat there, flipping through the book casually.

"My lord, do you want to be direct." Li Qingsong made a movement to wipe his neck.

"No, don't touch him!" Wang Qi raised his head and looked at Li Qingsong: "This kind of person, you have to keep it, he is of great use to us!" ”

"Subordinates understand."

Li Qingsong bowed and retreated.

Closing his eyes slightly, Wang Qi had a sense of urgency on his face, what Shi Kefa said did have some truth, time is not waiting, he has to speed up his pace!

————

At the end of August, the weather was dry.

Bang Bang Bang !!

The voice of the watchman came from afar: "The weather is dry, be careful of the candle!" ”

It's dry, watch out for candles!

Watch out for the candles!

Fire Candle!

The backyard of Honglu Temple, where the Shi Kefa Mission is located.

With a creak, Sun Kewang pushed the door in, followed by a figure.

I saw that there was only one oil lamp in the house, and it was dim and difficult to distinguish the human figure.

"Your Excellency?" Sun Kewang called tentatively.

"Brought?" Shi Kefa's voice trembled slightly, but then he was firmly suppressed: "Have you ever been discovered?" ”

"My lord, it's all about stopping and stopping all the way, sparing three city squares, and even if there is, it will be thrown off a long time ago," the figure's voice was muffled, and the voice was a practitioner.

"Sun Kewang went outside to guard," Shi Kefa's voice came: "Zhou Chuang came in." ”

The man who called Zhou Chuang bowed down and entered the house when he heard this, then closed the door and sat directly opposite Shi Kefa.

"Detonate Wang Gongchang, do you know the seriousness of this matter?" Shi Kefa hid himself in the darkness and observed the man's expression.

"It's nothing more than hundreds of thousands of dead and wounded," Zhou Chuangpi smiled and said, "As long as the emperor can be rescued, it doesn't hurt to die multiple more!" ”

In recent months, the news of Lu Yu's implementation of the reform of fields in Baodi County has spread to Nanjing.

In fact, the emperor was ousted from power, for most wealthy merchants, it was so far away, and they might not be able to empathize with the princes of Nanjing, especially the northern provinces did not feel any changes, let alone the city of Nanjing.

However, the reform of acres and acres, this kind of root-digging practice, really made the hearts of those noble and wealthy families feel cold.

Harvest acres, verify people, and check the number of fields.

What is Wang Qi going to do?

It is to stand on the opposite side of all the great families and sweep all the gentry and wealthy families in one go!

Therefore, as soon as the reform of Baodi County came out, the wealthy businessmen in Nanjing City couldn't sit still.

If you have money, you will have a famous article, and if you have money and a famous person, then you will carry the banner of anti-Wang Qi, welcome back the emperor, and be right!

And the matter of sending the children of the clan to Beijing City, and the matter of inserting eyeliner is one of the things done by the gentry and wealthy families.

"Whether this matter is successful or not, the lives of more than 30 people such as you may not be left behind," Shi Kefa has always been above board, and felt that it was necessary to explain it clearly to these people.

"Master Shi, you don't have to talk so much, most of the men who came here from Nanjing City are the sons of wealthy families in Nanjing City, and they are deeply involved with the clan.

Shi Kefa nodded when he heard this, and looked at the dim candle flame: "Then according to the original plan."

"Tomorrow on the first day of September, at the end of the hour, the fireworks will explode, and Wang Gong will rise," Zhou Chuang pursed his lips tightly.

In the dark, the two checked the plan again, and Zhou Chuang got up to leave.

"Take care." Shi Kefa didn't move, and sat there to see off the strong man.

"To each his own, hey," Zhou Chuang ignored Shi Kefa and turned to leave.

Because he was worried that there were spies from the Imperial City Division on the periphery of Honglu Temple, Zhou Chuang entered and exited Honglu Temple through daily waterwheels.

Tonight, I can only stay in a side room first.

Goo-goo-goo.

Outside the Honglu Temple, in a hidden alley.

"My lord, people have been in for half an hour, and they haven't come out yet, so it's estimated that they will sneak out on a waterwheel tomorrow morning." The dark guard, dressed in a black power suit, reported to Li Qingsong on the progress of monitoring.

"Zhou Chuang?" Flipping through the roster in his hand one by one, Li Qingsong's eyes fell on the identity information of one of several people: "He entered Wang Gong's factory a month ago?" ”

"Back to my lord's words, yes," Dark Wei said after a moment's thought, "Zhou Chuang is currently in charge of cleaning and screening slag, and he does a lot of hard work, except for a few men who come in together, he doesn't socialize with the rest of the people on weekdays. ”

"Hey," Li Qingsong's eyes shrank when he heard this, and he said solemnly: "Shi Kefa, you really want hundreds of thousands of people to give your so-called Emperor His Majesty a funeral!" ”

"Wang Gong's factory has been closely monitored, and they can't do anything," the subordinate added.

With a click, the roster was closed.

Li Qingsong's voice was full of murderous aura: "Once you do it, except for the leading few, all the rest will be killed!" ”

"Yes!" (End of chapter)
