Chapter 391: Full Room Secrets (Medium)
At the beginning, Feng Zhiping still had idle henchmen, and his eyes changed when he looked at it, from casual to serious, and then to serious, until his expression was solemn and unbelievable, and after reading one copy, he immediately grabbed the other one, completely forgetting that Lian Wu was still by his side.
Seeing his focused expression, Lian Wu nodded with satisfaction, sat down opposite and gently picked up the materials that were placed randomly and rearranged them, trying not to make a little extra sound.
Feng Zhiping didn't pay attention to these, he was immersed in reading and thinking.
These materials cover a wide range of topics, including personnel files, meeting minutes, three kinds of references: official history, secret history, and wild history, and even unwritten rumors.
In addition to these, he also found several maps, most of which were military maps of a certain area, and the rest were civilian versions of these areas, and these maps were put together in the financial statements corresponding to that area, on which the key points were drawn in a thin coil of various colors, and at the end of each was a note full of small letters indicating the author's analysis and guesses.
This kind of note is not only on maps and reports, but also on other materials, without these notes, it is difficult for people to see why such scattered information comes, and these notes are not a catalog or a general outline after all, Feng Zhiping is still very obscure.
At this point, he realized that the first information he saw was deliberately placed on top by Lian Wu, it was a summary report, and without this report, he would not be interested in reading these materials at all.
After reading the last piece of information, Feng Zhiping leaned on the back of the chair and looked up at the sky, silently recalling what he had just read.
The scattered materials are like pieces of a puzzle, constantly rotating and splicing in the mind, gradually forming a familiar and unfamiliar history, and a different from the official history of Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty is presented in front of you.
Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty You An was suspicious and ruthless, his exploits in some respects can even be compared to the ancestor of the Tianyuan Emperor You Baichuan, but future generations remember more about his cold-blooded and cold, and the family affection that blood is thicker than water in his eyes cannot be compared with the throne at all, even if several vassal kings bow down after he ascends the throne, he will not let go, until all the people who have threatened him are knocked down into the mud and dust and can no longer get up, and this is still because of the Tianyuan Sword.
Feng Zhiping used to think so, but it wasn't until he read these materials that he knew that things were far from being as simple as what was written in the history books.
You An is extremely suspicious, ruthless and decisive, but these are not innate, if these information are true, then his thin coldness is forced out.
In that year, his father Yuan Hongdi was in his last years, and the prince set in his early years was not successful, embarrassed to entrust, and the remaining four princes with the right to inherit were full of selfish desires, and one of them almost made a scandal of blood outflow, Emperor Hong was afraid that the ancestral foundation would be difficult to protect in the future, and the huge Tianyuan Dynasty would fall into a situation where the powerful and powerful countries competed for each other like the empty Xuan Kingdom, so he chose 12 people from the emperor's son and grandson to be the successors, and followed the method of raising Gu to select the best of the best.
Among the twelve newly appointed people, there is You An.
Emperor Hong's idea was very good, but he forgot, or deliberately ignored one thing, what he wanted to entrust was not an ordinary family business, but a country, a whole country called Tianyuan Continent!
He is a confident person, confident that he can control this situation, even if several ministers persuade each other, and even threaten him with resignation, he can't change his mind, so the unprecedented seventeen sons of the emperor vigorously kicked off.
At that time, the Tianyuan Dynasty did not have such an institution as the Heavenly Hearing Prison, and the supervision of hundreds of officials was jointly responsible for the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials, and the Criminal Department, and the institution was the predecessor of the Heavenly Hearing Prison. Now the Inspectorate has died in name, they are the eyes and ears of the emperor, it stands to reason that the purest information and analysis should be conveyed to Emperor Hong impartially, and it will never involve party disputes like the heavenly listening to the prison, but the three ministries belong to the same as the three surnames of the Inspectorate, and there are countless internal factions.
By the time Emperor Hong found out about this situation, the court was already in turmoil, and the seventeen princes set up the court together, fighting every day with the help of the officials they had wooed.
Originally, although the four emperors also attacked each other when they were elected, they were at least restrained, and they could always negotiate one piece after ten days and half a month, and now they have to burn high incense if they can agree on one piece in a month or two, but Emperor Hong did not stop it, he still thinks that he can control it, and even likes this kind of scene a little, thinking that it is a good phenomenon that the emperors are "active".
It wasn't until the bloody case happened that a prince was successfully assassinated by a dead soldier secretly cultivated by another prince, and Emperor Hong realized that something was wrong, you must know that there had never been a murder before Emperor Tianyuan's rivalry for the throne.
What shocked him the most was that the perpetrator almost won the lawsuit, and the important role was played by several old ministers who were very trusted by him, one of whom was still a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, and the case was originally very clear, but he went around the Zongren Mansion and not only did not convict but cleared the suspect!
Fortunately, he was not old and confused, and he didn't believe in the so-called "ironclad evidence", so he immediately asked Tian Yuan Sword to give it a try, and the results were self-evident, including the "innocent" prince, who lost many heads.
Emperor Hong felt that the situation was not good, and wanted to remedy it, but it was too late.
First of all, his body does not allow, in the early years, the hidden dangers of promoting the cultivation of drugs have all exploded in the later years, his internal force is lost very quickly, people can be said to be getting old day by day, and when he thinks about remedy, his energy is already low, he is groggy all day long, and sometimes he can't even go to the court, so he can only invite a few important ministers into the imperial study to talk privately when he is sober.
Secondly, the hundred officials have been divided, except for the only few people who are square and cold-eyed, the rest have their own factions, and the chief envoy of the Inspectorate entrusted by him has already secretly fallen to a certain prince, Yang Feng Yin disobeyed, and was overjoyed after receiving the decree of rectification and discipline, and took this opportunity to help the master to attack wantonly, and exiled two princes and one grandson in one breath, and his main person was in the limelight for a while.
And You An is a person with a lot of martial arts talent, he is obsessed with martial arts, he has no intention of the throne, but it is his martial arts talent that has entered the eyes of Emperor Hong, and he can only obey the holy decree, and he has no choice but to become the emperor's choice.
After becoming the emperor, he has been keeping a low profile, and the seventeen emperors selected him as the most inconspicuous one, and there are very few officials who depend on him and most of them are neutrals, not so much dependent as tacit, they all want to wait for the winner to come out and swear allegiance, and then go back to their respective homes to do what they should do.
He has always behaved very harmless, so he has suffered relatively little toss, but at this time, his "harmless" has become a mistake, I don't know who first said that he was showing weakness to the enemy and wanted to be a hunter behind the sparrow, so he became the target of the public in an instant, and almost all the emperors pointed the finger at him.
After experiencing two assassinations, he was stunned to find that the person who assassinated him was no longer a dead soldier, but a Jianghu man who was out of sight of the government and the opposition.
You must know that none of the emperors, including the crown prince, is a fool, and the prince's "incompetence" is not really incompetent, but that Emperor Hong doesn't like it, thinking that he is too weak to be suppressed by four brothers who trained him, if he is really stupid, the prince is not him.
These stupid princes and grandsons learned a lesson from the benevolent brother who was cut by the Tian Yuan Sword, and realized a highly feasible method, no longer sending their own subordinates to assassinate this kind of thing, but instead recruiting from the rivers and lakes, and using layers of subcontracting to dilute their participation as much as possible, they thought that this might be able to hide from the Tian Yuan Sword's investigation.
And the Jianghu people are more suitable to do this kind of thing than the dead soldiers they have painstakingly trained, especially those killer organizations, as long as the money is enough, they dare to do any job, and those intelligence organizations are also powerful, in the current situation where factions are full of mutual constraints, the news bought from them is faster and more accurate than their own information.
For a while, the "rivers and lakes", which were originally ignored and insulted by their identity, became a treasure in the eyes of the princes, and a lot of silver money was sprinkled into the "lake", smashing up stormy waves.
Because of this turmoil, many people in the rivers and lakes threw away their original intentions and beliefs, and changed careers to do killer and espionage work, and some shameless people also called themselves "chivalrous", insisting that what they did was a chivalrous act, in order to uphold justice, support orthodoxy, and eliminate harm for the people.

There are people dying every day on the rivers and lakes, and every day this building and that pavilion pops up and disappears in a blink of an eye, and some old killer organizations and intelligence organizations are even directly merged to launch a one-stop service, gradually transferring the business from the rivers and lakes to the government and the opposition.
You An encountered these two orders.
After the incident, when the Dali Temple and the Inspectorate were extremely uncooperative, he found out who was going to kill him with difficulty, but he couldn't find out who wanted to kill him.
After learning from the pain, he finally understood that he couldn't go on like this, this time the battle for the throne was different from the past, if he didn't advance, he would die, and there was no room for retreat.
So, he personally led people to destroy the people who came to kill him, and for the people who wanted to kill him, because he didn't know, he chose the easiest way - to kill.
If you can't find out who wants to harm yourself, then it's all suspects, anyway, no one can clean up this pool of muddy waters, it's best to get it right, and if you get it wrong, you should be rid of harm for the people.
Since then, the "Absolute Emperor" has begun his path of desperation, and after he shifted his energy from martial arts to this aspect, he burst out with amazing energy.
Through several cases that were not accepted by Dali Temple, it was found that someone forcibly occupied the people's land, and by the way, it was found that the officials were bought and sold, and the evidence was sorted out and threatened to fall to himself by the squire of the Criminal Department, and the evidence was used as a "letter of nomination" by him to play Emperor Hong, and three princes and an official were poured.
Through the financial statements, it was found that someone had privately withheld taxes and silver, and then found out a number of crimes such as embezzlement of state funds, and the main officials of the Ministry of Household and Rites turned to themselves and reported that their original masters were corrupt and perverted the law, and the princes fell a few more.
So heavy, he eliminated the opponents one by one, and he was smart and never used extreme methods to solve it himself, but used the old and faint Emperor Hong as a knife, which was exactly what Emperor Hong wanted, and he became more and more important.
Some people want to learn from him, but they are always one step slower than him, and some people want to kill him, but they find that the rivers and lakes are no longer the original rivers and lakes.
You An was originally a martial artist, and in his early years, he walked the rivers and lakes under a pseudonym and really made friends with a lot of heroes, after two assassinations, he immediately contacted his old friends to reunite, made his identity clear, and pleaded with everyone to help.
His words touched everyone, and the most important thing is that he himself is more recognized by these sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes than those princes who will only hide behind the scenes and throw money, in the eyes of these people, he is both a prince and a Jianghu person, at the time when the word "righteousness" was unjust, they welcomed and looked forward to having such a figure to support and clean up the rivers and lakes with them.
With the dual support of power and money, a brilliant and short-lived Jianghu organization appeared, called the "Righteous League".
There is only one purpose of the Yimeng, to uphold justice, carry forward the true chivalrous spirit, and drag the chaotic rivers and lakes back on the right track.
When the other princes threw money to buy the murderer again, they were stunned to find that many of the familiar "shops" had disappeared, and most of the remaining ones did not dare to take their orders, and those who dared to take them would disappear quickly, as if they had never appeared.
There is no murder to buy, and they dare not send their subordinates, the princes can only make a fuss in the court and politics, but the Emperor Hong, who is about to rotten wood, has great trust in You An, and after You An secretly entered the palace and had a heart-to-heart conversation all night, he made up his mind to pass on to him, and what others did was in vain.
You An successfully ascended the throne, the Yimeng received greater support, went all out, and with the cooperation of the government, he hit the traitors on the rivers and lakes with heavy punches, blooming on all sides, and when the rivers and lakes returned to calm, the Yimeng unexpectedly abided by the original agreement and disbanded on the spot, which made people regret and couldn't help but admire its chivalrous and righteous bones, which is a real hero.
In this regard, Feng Zhiping was very unimpressed.
A huge force that unites half of the rivers and lakes, not disbanded and waiting for the New Year to eat dumplings?
Eat the beheading rice you!
Tian Yuan is not empty, the Tian Yuan Dynasty has the absolute right to rule and supreme status in this land, the imperial court allows the existence of the rivers and lakes, allows the establishment of the rivers and lakes sects, and allows the people of the rivers and lakes to fight and fight at will without harming the good people, but will never allow these martial artists to gather into a huge individual!
Even now, the influence of the imperial power is not as strong as it was at the beginning, the Tianyuan Continent also maintains an absolute imperial unity, and the rivers and lakes are divided into seven parts by the eight major sects (Qiankun Pavilion has no territory, transcendent but neutral), the strongest martial god is in Diancang Mountain, but the most masters are still in the hands of the imperial court!
Why don't the Yimeng disband, waiting for You An to arrange a good show cooked by a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey?
That's what idiots do!
Those people are smart, and they took the initiative to dissolve You An's suspicions and won a good reputation and will remain in history forever, the more Feng Zhiping pondered, the more he wanted to applaud those people, and praised the people!
Although the Righteous League was disbanded, its traces have not disappeared.
After the dissolution of the Righteous League, its main members scattered all over the place, and many years later, there was a sect on the rivers and lakes called Dadaomen, and at the same time there was a rapidly rising sect, called Diancangmen.
Feng Zhiping finally knew why the Broadknife Gate and Diancangshan had to be looked at by the Imperial Court, why the Blood Knife Gate had done so many evil things and could still be tolerated by the Imperial Court, and why the Blood Knife Gate and the Broadknife Gate were loyal to the Imperial Court, no matter what happened on weekdays, but there was a war and a recall, and among the eight major factions in the previous wars, they contributed the most and suffered the heaviest casualties, it turned out that these three families had such a deep relationship with the Imperial Court.
The Broadsword Gate is the predecessor of the Broadsword Gate and the Blood Knife Gate, which were divided into two factions due to the different ideas of later generations.
The history of Diancangshan is written on the "one", at the beginning of its establishment, it was just a small sect near Diancangshan, and there were other sects and Taoist systems nearby, and then gradually developed and became today's Diancangshan, and the nearby sects were either annexed or moved, and the Diancangmen, which occupied the entire Diancangshan, also changed its name to its current name, directly named after the mountain.
According to the information, the founding of Diancangmen should have been with the participation of the backbone of the original Yimeng, and it was not completely created by the backbone of the original Yimeng like Dadaomen.
According to the data, the establishment of the Great Daomen was secretly instructed by Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty, and its purpose was to replicate the original righteous alliance and gather the righteous people on the rivers and lakes to fight against a mysterious organization that suddenly appeared on the rivers and lakes - the Underworld.
When he saw this, Feng Zhiping felt a thrill in his heart, and he couldn't help but think of another terrorist organization that had a very bad relationship with him-Huangquan.
