Chapter 66, Goodbye Confucianism
"How to prove it?" Lin Zheng asked when he saw that Yang Luhai's face was frank and not as if he was lying.
"Do you really think that this crossbow can be designed by anyone casually?" Yang Luhai's eyes were full of sarcasm, which seemed to mean that Lin Zheng was a dirt bun who had never seen the world.
"Yes. Lin Zheng nodded, grabbed a chair and sat outside the prison.
In fact, Lin Zheng also thought from the bottom of his heart that Yang Luhai was the third young master of the Yang family, not because the other drawings were too precise, if the Yang family really casually someone could design it, then how terrifying should the upper three families be? I'm afraid it won't be a problem to create a new dynasty.
"The third young master of the Yang family. Lin Zheng rubbed his chin and felt a little tricky.
If he rashly beheaded him, I am afraid that the Yang family will not give up, but if he does not behead him...... Lin Zheng glanced at Yang Luhai with his afterglow, and the latter's eyes were full of hatred.
"Well, since you have offended, let us offend more thoroughly. Lin Zheng was actually full of helplessness in his heart, let it go, this Yang Luhai is bound to go back to Chu State to fight against himself, if he doesn't let it go, the Yang family will definitely find someone to ask for him, even if he promises not to help Chu State in the end, but looking at Yang Luhai's monstrous hatred, Lin Zheng is very worried about whether the Yang family can control this Yang Luhai.
Thinking of this, Lin Zheng no longer hesitated, and stood up with the black knife, if he cut it, there would not be big trouble, if he didn't cut it, there would definitely be big trouble, so he had to make a quick decision to cut the mess, and the future troubles would be talked about in the future.
Just as Lin Zheng made up his mind, Yan Liang hurriedly walked in from the entrance of the prison, still holding a carrier pigeon in his hand. Seeing this carrier pigeon, Lin Zheng knew that he was in trouble, and in desperation, he put away the black knife and turned to face Yan Liang.
"Pavilion Master. When Yan Liang only had Lin Zheng and himself, he would call Lin Zheng the pavilion master: "Urgent letter." ”
Lin Zheng nodded, and when he got closer, he would find that what Yan Liang had touched in his hand was not a carrier pigeon at all, but a falcon.
"It seems to be really urgent. Lin Zheng took out the envelope, and there was a Confucian character written with a brush at the seal.
Seeing the Confucian character Lin Zheng's eyes lit up, the chagrin that he didn't kill Yang Luhai in time because of hesitation disappeared, and when he opened the envelope, there were only two big characters written with a brush, leaving people!
Although there were only two words, it was enough, Lin Zheng was satisfied with the envelope back into the envelope, put it in his arms and put it away.
"Send someone to watch the prison carefully, tomorrow we have guests to visit, honored guests. Lin Zheng smiled in his eyes, and did not go to the regular meeting Yang Luhai again, now it doesn't matter whether Yang Luhai is alive or dead, what really matters is Confucianism.
The entire Rui City is now only guarded by Yan Liang and Lin Zheng, because he is worried about Lin Zheng, Yan Liang handed over all military affairs to Shen Yueting to take care of, and he was able to withdraw his hand and return to Rui City, otherwise the entire city will only be Lin Zheng alone, not even a master of the Immortal Stroke.
When Yan Liang came back, it was already close to dawn, so the two of them simply chatted about polishing time in the big tent without resting.
The night passed without waves, and as soon as the sun rose in the sky, the sound of the commander came from outside the big tent.
"Reporting to the commander-in-chief, a man claiming to be a Confucian appeared outside the city gate and asked to see him. The commander said in a loud voice.
"Please come in. Seeing this, Lin Zheng said spiritually.
"Yes!" the commander departed to ask for someone.
Soon, an old man with a white beard pushed open the curtain of the tent and walked in.
"It turned out to be Mr. Zixian. Lin Zheng hurriedly stood up.
"The old man is bothered, don't blame Your Excellency the Heavenly Master. Mr. Zixian clasped his hands into fists and bowed slightly, and then found a guest seat.
Since Mr. Zixian came in, Lin Zheng couldn't stop talking about the changes in Quantum Xian over the years, when they first met, Zixian still had black hair mixed with a few strands of white hair, but now his hair and beard are all white.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, and Mr. Zixian is a lot haggard. Lin Zheng said.
"Hey, that's tactful. Mr. Zixian smiled and shook his head: "A few years ago, I dared to say that I could keep Confucianism for twenty years, but now I can keep it for another five years at most, not more." ”
"Why did Mr. Zixian become like this, what happened?" Lin Zheng asked with concern.
"It's not a big deal. Mr. Zixian smiled: "Involved in the struggle for power, which family can be clean?" It's just that it breaks the heart of a saint like me, it's better than the juniors to do it." Zixian laughed, and his laughter was full of ease.
"Alright. Zixian put away his laughter: "Let's talk less about gossip and get down to business first, then I think His Excellency the Heavenly Master should have received it, right?"
"Letter?" Lin Zheng looked puzzled.
"The kid is dishonest. Zixian shook his head, his index finger and thumb were clasped in a ring, and he whistled sharply, and the next moment the falcon that had been locked up by Yan Liang in advance quickly skewered in and landed on Mr. Zixian's hand.
"I, the falcon, would not have been caught unless I had delivered the letter to someone. Old Mr. Zixian touched his gray beard: "Your Excellency Heavenly Master, do you still want to deny it?"
"Huh. Lin Zheng touched his nose and smiled embarrassedly: "Honesty is what a powerful person should do, such as the situation of Shige today, although Confucianism is far away in Chu State, he has also heard of it." ”
"I heard that Li Jiunian established Wudang Mountain as the state religion, and the Heavenly Master Pavilion moved from no way to White Emperor City. Mr. Zixian nodded.
"Then presumably Mr. Zixian can also understand that this campaign to destroy Chu is the only chance for the Heavenly Master Pavilion to turn over, right?" Lin Zheng asked Mr. Zixian.
"Although the old decay is about to die, but Du's mind is still clear, and he naturally understands what this expedition to destroy Chu means to the Heavenly Master Pavilion. Mr. Zixian nodded, still smiling and kind.
"Yang Luhai alone may not be nothing, but his knowledge of machine brackets is likely to affect the battle situation, if the Heavenly Master Pavilion is defeated...... Lin Zheng didn't continue, but the people present are all smart people, if the Heavenly Master Pavilion is defeated, there will be no chance to turn over.
"His Excellency the Heavenly Master gave me a problem with Confucianism back then, and finally my Confucianism chose to believe that His Excellency the Heavenly Master moved to the Chu State, and now Confucianism has been canonized as a state religion in the Chu State. Mr. Zixian's expression suddenly said seriously.
Naturally, it is not difficult to see the status of Confucianism in the state of Chu today. Lin Zheng nodded, this is also what he is worried about, now that Confucianism is too detached in the state of Chu, it is likely that he will not be willing to continue to fulfill his promises.
"Now I also have a problem for the Heavenly Master Pavilion, Confucianism is still willing to help the Heavenly Master Pavilion, but the premise is that His Excellency the Heavenly Master wants me to take Yang Luhai away. Old Mr. Zixian looked at Lin Zheng: "The rest depends on whether Your Excellency the Heavenly Master is willing to believe in Confucianism." ”
"Mr. Zixian really gave me a big problem. Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile.
"The old man only returned the problems that His Excellency the Heavenly Master had given to Confucianism. After Mr. Zixian finished speaking, he sat there without a wave and tasted tea, no matter how Lin Zheng looked, he couldn't find anything on Mr. Zixian's face.
"Confucianism is indeed bold. Lin Zheng remembered that he had forced Confucianism to abandon Yunzhou, which had been in business for many years, and moved to Chu State, and he originally believed that a person needed such courage.
"Your Excellency Heavenly Master, don't be in a hurry, just give me an answer within three days. Seeing this, Mr. Zixian smiled and said that he was about to get up.
"No need, Mr. Zixian. Lin Zheng, who was thinking hard, suddenly spoke up and stopped Mr. Zixian's actions.
"Since Confucianism can trust me, then I can naturally trust Confucianism unconditionally. Lin Zheng's eyes were firm, and he stepped forward: "I'll take Mr. Zixian to lead Yang Luhai." ”
"Your Excellency the Heavenly Master is far from being comparable to us. Mr. Zixian nodded with a smile, and at the same time sighed in his heart, why can't there be such a character among the juniors in his family?
"Mr. Zixian praised it falsely. Lin Zheng shook his head: "Actually, my heart is full of hesitation now, but the troubles in the future will be solved in the future." ”
"Your Excellency Heavenly Master, this state of mind is old and desolate, and you are ashamed of yourself. Mr. Zixian said with a smile, Confucianism has taken every step of the way in the Chu State, and he has dispatched immediately if there is anyone who may have an accident, and he does not dare to delay at all, so Confucianism has also lost many useful people.
"It's not a shock, it's just some insights. Lin Zheng shook his head and walked into the prison with Mr. Zixian.
"Zixian Guoshi?" At this time, the prisoners in the prison were sleeping soundly, and when they heard someone come in and opened their eyes, they saw a familiar figure.
"It's me. Old Mr. Zixian smiled at the people in the prison.
"Great, Zixian Guoshi is here, we have a chance to go out!"
The cell, which had been quiet, suddenly became noisy.
"Quiet. Lin Zheng said softly, his voice was not loud and even less conspicuous in the noise, but the entire prison immediately fell silent
The impression of Lin Zheng's murder without blinking yesterday was still engraved in everyone's hearts, and the corpse was still on the ground and had not been moved.
Seeing that you can go out, no one wants to have an accident at this time, right?
"Mr. Zixian?" Yang Luhai was also asleep, but when he opened his eyes annoyed by the noise, he saw the familiar figure.
"Third Young Master Yang, I'm here to pick you up. Mr. Zixian gently unlocked the door of the prison with a single row.
The first thing Yang Luhai did when he regained his freedom was to rush towards Lin Zheng, but how could his weak body hurt Lin Zheng, and he was shocked out before he even touched the corner of Lin Zheng's clothes.
Yang Luhai closed his eyes tightly and flew out, thinking that he would hit the ground and break a few ribs, but he didn't want to be wrapped in a soft force and stayed in mid-air.
"Third Young Master Yang, let's go. Mr. Zixian said.
"Mr. Zixian, help me kill him, he killed An Shan's death!" Yang Luhai opened his eyes and looked at Lin Zheng with red eyes.
Lin Zheng took it calmly.
"I can't do it. Zixian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "If the commander is so good at killing, I won't come to pick you up, right?"
