Chapter 60: Blame
I was attacked by the White Lotus Sect in Lingbei, and I think I have already received the news from Fucheng. I don't know what Lu Zhizhong's actions will be.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and then someone said: "The master has sent a letter, and I would like to ask the adults to take a look." ”
As soon as he heard that it was the letter from the master, Lu Zhizhong hurriedly put down the pen in his hand, came to the door and opened the door, took the letter from the guard, and closed the door of the study.
Lu Zhizhong took the letter and sat on the chair to open it, the letter had several pages, it was the master's handwritten letter, and there was the master's private seal on it.
The general content of the letter: I heard that the little emperor sent Qin to Henan to track down the disaster relief silver and Shen Shi'an.
Find a way to create a conflict between the Qincha and the White Lotus Sect, and it is best to kill the Qincha and blame the White Lotus Sect.
At that time, let the imperial court send troops to encircle and suppress the White Lotus Sect in order to weaken the imperial court's strength, and then it will be the time for us to raise troops.
After reading the letter, Lu Zhizhong put the letter on the desk, looked at the unfinished letter on the table and was silent, very conflicted in his heart.
As a provincial governor, the current official position and power are not small, and I have also tasted the benefits of power. I don't want to take any more risks, in case of failure, Lu Zhizhong doesn't dare to think about the consequences.
But the master's order cannot be disobeyed, and now there is no room for repentance. From the moment he stepped on this boat, there was no turning back.
Killing Qin is not a trivial matter, this matter must be planned well. I don't have a killer with good martial arts in my hands, so it seems that I still have to ask my master for help.
Lu Zhizhong tore up the letter he had written before, wrote a new one, and asked his cronies to send it to his master as soon as possible.
Just after sending a letter out, Lu Zhizhong received another letter from Xuzhou. When I opened it, there was no name on the letter, but it only said that someone would be sent to Xuzhou Mansion.
Seeing the content of the letter, even if there is no genus name, Lu Zhizhong knows who sent the letter.
Lu Zhizhong walked out of the study and asked the staff to bring the token to the Xuzhou Mansion for a walk.
The staff took the token from Lu Zhizhong's hand and put it in his arms, said goodbye to Lu Zhizhong, and went to Xuzhou on the same day.
Besides, Yang Shanyong, after dawn, he said goodbye to Liu Yu and left Lingbei County, and first went to the branch hall of the White Lotus Sect to watch to prevent them from transferring the disaster relief silver.
Liu Yu finally met the second brother, and she didn't want to be separated from the second brother so early.
But Yang Shanyong persuaded her to stop playing with the temper of a child, his current identity is the young master of the White Lotus Sect, and staying by Xiaomei's side will not only not help her, but also harm her.
It's better to leave early and go to Fucheng to inquire about the situation first. There will be news then, so I can tell my little sister in advance.
No matter how reluctant he was, Yang Shanyong still left. The two agreed to write the letter with the symbols they drew when they were young, so that if the letter was lost, no one else would be able to read it.
After Yang Shanyong left Lingbei, he rode to the branch hall in Xuzhou, and on the way, he encountered a government official riding a horse and galloping in the opposite direction to him.
Yang Shanyong was afraid of causing trouble, so he avoided it when he saw it from a distance, and waited for the official to leave before riding a horse again.
Yang Shanyong found that the other party seemed to be in a hurry, but the saddle was empty, and he didn't even have a bag, which was very strange. Generally, the official who delivers the official document will have a briefcase on the saddle, but this official does not.
Yang Shanyong looked back at the official servant who had already disappeared, and stood there thinking for a long time, but he couldn't figure out the reason.
He was not good at strategy, and if he couldn't figure it out, he didn't want to, so he continued to ride on the road.
Yang Shanyong came to Xuzhou, did not go to the Xuzhou branch, but changed his costume and returned to the small courtyard where he used to live.
In the small courtyard, there is usually only an old couple who watch the door, and Yang Shanyong occasionally comes back to stay for a few days. Today, the old couple saw the master come back and were very enthusiastic about preparing a meal for him.
It wasn't until the next night that Yang Shanyong left the small courtyard and went to the Xuzhou branch of the White Lotus Sect.
When he came to the branch hall, he saw that there were many more people around, and according to their walking movements, Yang Shanyong found that these people's martial arts were good.
Yang Shanyong saw that so many masters came to the branch hall at once, and he had some doubts in his heart. Although he didn't show it, he was secretly vigilant.
He took the big knife on his back in his hand and walked into the courtyard of the branch hall.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, the door of the courtyard was closed. The courtyard, which was originally empty, was now full of people with torches in their hands.
Yang Shanyong looked at Yao Zhifu, who was in the lead, and asked, "Sect Master, what does this mean?"
Yao Zhifu took a torch from his subordinates, walked up to Yang Shanyong, looked at his face, and said, "What do you mean?
When it came to the task, Yang Shanyong didn't speak, he knew that it was his fault that he didn't complete the task this time.
When Yao Zhifu saw that Yang Shanyong didn't speak, he knew that he had found the right excuse this time. Then he said, "What is your sin for your personal defeat, and for the destruction of our whole plan?"
Yang Shanyong listened to Yao Zhifu's words and knew that he was targeted by him this time, so the hand holding the knife secretly tightened, and he was ready to shoot at any time.
"Come on, put the young master in prison first. Yao Zhifu continued.
As soon as Yao Zhifu finished speaking, someone immediately came out and replied: "Yes!"
Yang Shanyong saw these people surrounding him, and he knew that this time the matter might not be good.
Yao Zhifu just used this incident as an excuse to get rid of himself, and he sent it to the door himself.
Yang Shanyong and his sister recognize each other, so naturally they will not let anyone surround and arrest them.
was about to resist with a knife, Yang Shanyong heard a curse from behind him: "Yao Zhifu, you old horseman can't die well."
Back then, the old sect leader didn't care that you were the sect leader, and it was the young master who spoke for you that made you get the position of sect leader.
Now you want to harm the young master, has your conscience called the dog to eat?"
As he spoke, the scolder came to Yang Shanyong's side and stood with him to resist Yao Zhifu and the others.
Yang Shanyong saw clearly at this time, and it turned out to be the third elder and the sixth elder of the Council of Elders.
These two are brothers, and they have been following the old sect leader to take care of teaching affairs in the church, and they are very convinced of the old sect leader, and they have always looked down on Yao Zhifu.
is very unaccustomed to Yao Zhifu's behavior of wooing the congregation, Yao Zhifu once also wooed the two, but was rejected by their brothers.
This time, the two of them were originally in the management of the headquarters, but they received a letter secretly from their subordinates saying that the sect leader was not good for the young master, and the two brothers hurried over from the headquarters.
After disguise, he lived in a nearby farmhouse, and rushed over when he saw the young master come back.
Yang Shanyong bowed his hand to the two of them and said, "Thank you to the Third Elder and the Sixth Elder for their maintenance, but for the sake of the master's hard work, I also ask the two elders to do their best not to interfere in the personal grievances between me and the sect leader." ”
Third Elder Liu Dazhuang stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Young Master, you are wrong. It's not between the two of you anymore, he's dividing the congregation and excluding dissent. ”
After listening to the words of the three elders, Yang Shanyong did not refute again. Instead, he took a knife and three elders, six elders, and three back-to-back to stop each other's attacks.
Yao Zhifu didn't want to listen to the nonsense of a few people anymore, so he directly ordered them to be taken down.
After hearing the order, the White Lotus Sect members besieged the three of them, and Yang Shanyong had the highest martial arts skills and took the lead in repelling the people who surrounded them.
