238. See through the hearts of all friends
As for why Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi reused Fei Hong, this is related to the political situation of the imperial court.
After all, Zhang Fujing's henchmen in the current court have long been all over the government and the opposition, and Zhu Houxi is most worried that the minister's power is too large and threatens his position.
Although Zhang Fujing was nominally dismissed from the post of first assistant by himself and relegated to the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Zhu Houxi understood that the imperial court was absolutely inseparable from Zhang Fujing at this time.
However, Fei Hong was precisely because Emperor Zhu Houxi favored Zhang Fujing, and the people who resigned angrily and returned to their hometowns reused Fei Hong again, but it was just to compete with Zhang Fujing in the future.
After Du Buyi sent Zhu Houxi out of Jinan City, the three of them returned to Chunxi Tower to drink.
At this time, the old bustard also recovered from the fright, and entertained the three of them with good wine and meat, and the women who had served the three of them before also returned.
Du Bu Bu saw that Yuling was sitting on the side and had Wan'er's palm print on her face, so he said to Yuling:
"Miss Yuling, I'm sorry?"
Yuling replied:
"How can I afford to provoke you big officials around the emperor!"
Du did not forget to change the topic and asked:
"Why didn't Miss Yuling see the two women who accompanied Zhu Gongzi yesterday?"
Yuling replied:
"They are all under the control of the dragon, can they still live?"
At this time, Li Fuxing said on the side:
"This is also an order from His Majesty before leaving, no one is allowed to spread the rumors about his coming to Chunxi Tower, not to mention that if those two women are pregnant with the dragon seed, won't it embarrass Your Majesty in the future, so I have asked the prefect Liu Yuzhong to deal with them!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"There are so many people in Your Majesty's harem, and they have never given birth to a boy and a half girl with Your Majesty for so many years, do you use this to treat two Qinglou women?"
Li Fuxing said:
"Brother Du, don't talk nonsense, if someone with a heart hears it and reaches the ears of the people in the palace, you will be a sinner!"
Du Buyi only reacted at this time, and there were three Qinglou women next to him.
Li Fuxing warned the three of them:
"If you leak anything about Your Majesty, not only will you suffer a catastrophe, but your family will not be able to escape!"
After the three women knew the news of the two sisters who served the emperor last night, they were already frightened, and when they heard Li Fuxing's warning, they trembled with fright.
Li Fuxing and Chen Wanghou respectively hugged the woman who slept with them last night and comforted them.
Du didn't forget to see the two of them like this, so he had to hold Yuling into his arms.
Yuling had also slowly eased up at this time, so she asked Du Yiyi:
"Du Gongzi, you won't attack us!"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Of course not, I'm sure you won't say it!"
Then he drank with Yuling.
Because Wan'er was so separated from herself, Du Bu Bu felt a little sad in his heart, and he couldn't help but drink, and he couldn't stop.
After a while, he got drunk, and then was helped to the side room by Yuling.
After Yu Ling helped Du Cheng to sit down on the bed, she began to take off her dress first, at this time Du did not forget to take Yu Ling as Xi Siqi, so she didn't wait for Yu Ling to take off her clothes, she directly picked up Yu Ling and threw her on the bed, pressed him up and kissed him, and her hands began to swim on Yu Ling.
After a while, Yuling's clothes have been completely torn off by Du Forget, although Yuling has nothing to do, but she is in a brothel, she has long been prepared for this, it is rare to meet this kind of beautiful man like Du Forgetful, she was ready to lose her body to Du Forgetfulness last night, and she naturally catered to Du Forgetfulness with excitement tonight.
After the passion of the two was over, when they were about to fall asleep, they saw someone outside the window throw a piece of paper in, Du did not forget to quickly get dressed, walked over and picked up the note to take a look, only to see that it was written: Holy will, be sure to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
Du didn't forget to take a look, doesn't this mean that he killed Yuling to kill his mouth, could it be that the other two have already been killed?
Du didn't forget to think of this, and hurriedly went out of the door of the room to take a look, and saw that there were a bunch of bloodstained women's corpses downstairs, and Li Fuxing, Chen Wanghou, and the prefect Liu Yuzhong were surrounding these corpses downstairs and didn't know what they were discussing.
Du did not forget to hurriedly go downstairs and ask a few people:
"What are you doing here? Is there still humanity?"
Li Fuxing walked up to Du Buyi and said:
"Your Majesty's will, have you solved that Yuling, do you want me to help you?"
Du didn't forget to reply:
"No need, and then looked outside, almost all of them were officers and soldiers with torches!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"You're going to burn this place?"
Prefect Liu Yuzhong says:
"Yes, so, Du Tanhua, hurry up and pull the corpse of the woman on your bed over!"
Du did not forget to say with anger:
"I can't forget that I won't have friends like you anymore!"
Then he ran upstairs, wrapped Yuling in a quilt, and without waiting for her to ask, he jumped directly from the window to the roof of the side with her in his arms and walked away.
After Du Yi did not forget to leave, the entire Chunxi Building was instantly turned into ashes by a fire.
And Du did not forget to take Yuling to Yuling's house at this time.
Yuling's house is a small remote mud house outside the city, and Yuling's old father is lying on a pile of grass in the middle of the house, panting for breath.
After Yuling found a few cloth clothes in the house and put them on, she hurriedly went to the side to boil the decoction.
Du did not forget to ask Yuling:
"What's wrong with your dad now?"
While boiling the decoction, Yuling replied to Du Yiyi:
"Do you believe what I said now, I had to devote myself to a brothel?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Got it!"
Yuling said again:
"I'm afraid my dad won't be a few days, it's all Yuling, I can't save my dad and his old man!"
Then he started crying, and then Yuling's father reluctantly sat up with his hands propped up, and said to Yuling:
"Ling'er, you don't have to blame yourself, it's your father who is incompetent and didn't take good care of you!"
At this time, Yuling ran directly over and wrapped up with his father, forgetting that she was still boiling medicine on the fire beside her.
Du Buyi came over and helped Yuling boil the medicine.
Yuling also reacted back at this time, and then walked over to Du and said:
"Du Gongzi, thank you, I'll come by myself!"
Du did not forget to ask again at this time:
"Yuling, what are you going to do?"
Yuling replied:
"What else, Chunxi Building is gone, I can only take care of my father at home first!"
Then he said:
"Thank you, Du, Gongzi, for your life-saving grace to Yuling!"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Don't you see what our relationship is?"
Yuling replied:
"We don't have anything to do with each other, don't talk nonsense, everything is just a sale!"
Du Buyi took out all the silver from his arms, handed it to Yuling and said:
"Since it's a sale, then I'll give it all to you!"
Yuling directly pushed away Du Zhifu's hand and said:
"Silver, my mother has already paid me, you don't have to give me these things anymore, I don't need it!"
Du did not forget to say immediately:
"You don't need it, then your father needs it!"
Yuling turned around directly and said:
"My Yuling doesn't need charity!"
Du didn't forget to think about it, so he put the silver next to Yuling's father and said:
"Uncle, this is my heart, I hope you don't refuse!"
Then without waiting for Yuling to come over and return the silver, he left, only listening to Du not forgetting to leave a sentence:
"Yuling, I hope you take good care of your father first, we will meet again if we are fated!"
After Du Buyi left Yuling's house, he came back to find Li Fuxing and Chen Wanghou, after all, Du Buyi was afraid that after he left, a few people would go to Yuling for trouble.
After Du Bu persuaded a few people, the prefect Liu Yuzhong, Li Fuxing, and Chen Wanghou also promised not to trouble Yuling in the future.
At this time, Chen Wanghou suddenly remembered that his wife was still in pain, and immediately inquired about the residence of Dr. Li.
Du did not forget that he was already disappointed with several people because of the incident of Chunxi Tower, so he wrote a letter and asked Chen Wanghou to take it to Qizhou to find Doctor Li.
After doing these things, Du Buyi asked the prefect Liu Yuzhong for a fast horse, hoping to rush back to Suzhou to explain to Wan'er, after all, Du Buyi felt that Wan'er must be angry with herself when she suddenly said that kind of thing to herself.
When Du did not forget to ride a horse from Jinan near Mount Tai, he encountered a ten-year-old child who stopped his horse in front.
Du did not forget to get off the horse and asked the child:
"Little friend, why are you standing in my way?"
The child took out a cloth bag from his arms, handed it to Du and said:
"This is an uncle who asked me to give it to you!"
Du didn't forget to open the cloth bag and see that it was actually the treasure key, and there was a letter inside, so he hurriedly asked the child:
"Where is your uncle, why didn't he come himself?"
The child replied:
"Uncle can't come, so let me deliver it for him!"
Du did not forget to open the letter, read it, and saw that it was written:
"Brother Du, I know that you already have a treasure map in your hand, I just gave you this key, I believe that you will be useful after you get the treasure in the future, you Brother Songtu and I are now practicing martial arts, ready to take revenge, and I don't have time to come to see you, I hope you will take care of yourself in the future!"
Du Buyi had to smile bitterly and said to himself:
"What's the use of me asking for treasure?"
Then he turned around and was about to ask the child about the current situation of Brother Songtu, but he didn't expect that the child was gone.
Because Du did not forget to give all the silver to Yuling's father and daughter, he was penniless at this time, and he had to sleep in the wilderness at night with firewood.
Unexpectedly, when I slept late at night, I was suddenly woken up by a sound of footsteps.
Du Bu Bu didn't forget to open his eyes and saw that a group of monks were walking towards him not far away.
Du Buyi felt that he stood up, and at this time, after the group of monks walked in, one of the first monks wearing a robe asked Du Buyi:
"Does the donor have anything to eat?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"I'm hungry at this time, how can I eat!"
The monk then said:
"We came all the way here from Shaolin Temple, planning to go to Penglai Island in the East to visit Master Puhui, the owner of Penglai Island, passing by here today, we have not eaten for almost two days."
Du did not forget to ask the monk:
"Who is Master Penglai Puhui? Why haven't I heard of it?"
The monk then said:
"Master Puhui is a monk who has attained the Tao of our Buddhism, although he is from Fusang, but he has lived on Penglai Island in the East China Sea since he was a child, and he has never set foot in the Central Plains, so you naturally don't know this brother!"
Du did not forget to hear the monk say that Master Puhui was actually from Fusang, but he was a little interested, and then chatted with him.
This monk claimed to be the younger brother of the abbot of Shaolin Temple, Hui Ning, but when it came to Master Pratt & Whitney, he praised it, and it seemed that he was even more like his current senior brother Hui Qian.
At this time, the other monks on the side began to go out to find food, and after a while, several monks did not know which one took a few live fish from which person.
Monk Huining asked Du Yiyi:
"Brother Du, can I borrow you for the fire?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Of course you can!"
Then the monks gathered around and set the fish and sticks on the fire and roasted them, and some of them were already taking the uncooked fish and eating it in a big way.
Seeing this, Du Bu couldn't help but ask Monk Huining:
"As the saying goes, isn't it true that the Buddhists don't kill? Why do those masters still eat fish and meat?"
Monk Huining smiled and said:
"Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, the Buddha has left it in his heart, and eating fish and meat is also a last resort, and the Buddha will not blame!"
Du did not forget to think of the Eagle Disease Monk at this time, and thought that the Eagle Disease Monk was an idle person, and no one cared about the wine and meat, how could it be compared with a place like Shaolin Temple, which was a strict sect, and couldn't help but wonder about the origin of this group of people who claimed to be Shaolin monks.
