Volume 2 The Tiger Returns to the Deep Mountains Chapter 372 Commander of the Heavenly Guard
Listening to Li Xiyun's words, Jing Hong's face couldn't help but raise a smile, "I forgot, you are not only my beloved concubine Li Xiyun, but also my dog-headed military advisor Li Yichou!"
Li Xiyun glanced at Jing Hong with resentment, and said, "What is Your Majesty talking about!
Jing Hong took Li Xiyun's hand and said softly: "It's not like it, my concubine is better looking than all the women in the world, how can she be like a dog's head!"
The two flirted affectionately again, and in their eyes, there was only each other.
......
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day, Jing Hong finished reviewing today's recital, and his heart felt irritable for no reason. Because the song is basically full of peace and security, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and so on, almost describing the Tongtian Empire he ruled as a peaceful and prosperous era! But is this really the case?
Jing Hong had already received a secret report a few days ago that Shentu Hongliang would lead all the sects in the rivers and lakes to decide to fight to the death with the imperial court! However, this was not what surprised Jing Hong the most, what shocked Jing Hong the most was Li Zhichen's identity! He never expected that Li Yichen would actually be an orphan of the Xuantang Dynasty! When he heard the news, he even directly knocked over the inkstone in front of him, which was enough to see how surprised Jing Hong was!
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the sentence that Li Yichen asked Cheng Tianwei to bring him. He knew very well how the Tongtian Dynasty was established, and it was his ancestors who took it from the Ye family! Although there is no detailed record in the historical records of how the Jing ancestors took it from the Ye ancestors, Jing Hong was sure that he did not obtain it by fair and honest means! Because his ancestors were courtiers of the Xuantang Dynasty!
The courtiers plotted to usurp the throne, killed the emperor and killed the king, and added a yellow robe, which is not shameful in all dynasties from ancient times to the present, and what means of a righteous man and a gentleman can be used in the future? Jing Hong originally thought that the 'thing' that Li Yichen said was Li Xiyun, but he didn't expect that the so-called 'thing' would actually be the Xuantang Dynasty!
However, there was no mention of these things, they didn't even know about Shentu Hongliang's rebellion, and there was no one available in the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, which made Jing Hong not feel cold and irritable?
Jing Hong couldn't help sighing, some time ago, Ye Jingyi also knew that his granddaughter was stripped of the position of the imperial concubine and sent to the cold palace because of the false holy decree. Ye Jingyi did not enter the palace to confront Jing Hong, but resigned from the post of Taifu after taking the blame in public above the court.
Jing Hong did not stop him, nodded and agreed to Ye Jingyi's resignation. After Ye Jingyi left, a few days later, Gong Hanlin, the priest of the country, also handed over his resignation, hoping to return to his hometown on the grounds of his advanced age. Jing Hong waved his pen, and even if he was able to correct Gong Hanlin's resignation. Now above this court, Jing Hong can be said to be unavailable!
Jing Hong was full of sorrow, he didn't tell Li Xiyun about Li Yichen. For some reason, whenever he thought of Li Yichen, he always involuntarily felt a touch of fear rise in his heart. He was afraid that Li Zhichen really overthrew the Tongtian Dynasty, he was afraid that Li Xiyun would choose to stand on Li Zhichen's side, and he was afraid that he would lose the throne....
Jing Hong clenched his fists, his eyes showed a fierce light, he knew that he couldn't be defeated! If he was defeated, it would be a catastrophe! Anyone could retreat, but he couldn't!
"Your Majesty is worried about the rebellion?" asked Grandpa Sun in a low voice.
Jing Hong pinched his eyebrows and nodded tiredly, "The forces in the rivers and lakes were originally divided into two factions, the righteous faction was headed by the Daomen, and the evil faction was headed by the Wunian Sect, and the good and the evil factions were not separated! Over the years, the good and evil factions have restrained each other, and they have been safe and sound, but I don't know why they have united together to oppose the world! The other sects are okay, but why should the other sects be opposed? The attitude of the imperial court towards the three religions has always been to respect Confucianism, worship Taoism and degrade Buddhism, except for Confucianism, other Taoist sects are the most valued by the imperial court, and I can't think of a reason for the Taoist rebellion!"
Gonggong Sun hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the Daomen rebellion was not a whim, it was just a timely opportunity. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Jing Hong asked with a frown.
Gonggong Sun sighed and said, "This matter has to start from when the first emperor was alive. Your Majesty also knew that the first emperor had always coveted the forces of the rivers and lakes, and wanted to take the various sects of martial arts into his pocket. Capture the thief and capture the king first, and the first emperor of the Daomen martial arts will naturally take the Daomen to open the knife. As long as the Daomen submit to the imperial court, then the other sects will be nothing more than a plate of scattered sand, and they will be vulnerable to a single blow! Therefore, the first emperor sent the Ten Hall Yamas to the Seven Daomen Sects, but those real people of the Seven Sects of the Daomen swore to death and refused to submit to the imperial court, and the Ten Hall Yamas launched a massacre in the Daomen in a fit of rage! The dead and wounded of those real people of the Seven Sects of the Daomen are now not much left of the real people of the Daomen! The seven divided sects have also merged together and become a complete Daomen!"
"So, would they rather join forces with the Wunian Sect to overthrow the Tongtian Dynasty?" Jing Hong asked in a daze.
Gonggong Sun smiled bitterly: "Actually, if you really want to talk about it, there is no hatred between the Wunian Sect and the Dao Sect at all. The reason why they have been hostile for decades is only because one considers himself to be a decent family and cares about the common people, while the other considers himself a demon and regards human life as grass, and is only hostile because of the so-called incompatibility between good and evil. Compared to the hatred of Wu Nian Sect's words, the real blood debt between the Dao Sect and the imperial court is the Dao Sect! Not only is this the case with the Daomen, but the other sects are no better than the Daomen, and the first emperor has left His Majesty with a difficult situation!"
"This is not just a difficult situation, if it continues like this, it will become a dead end! Who would have thought that Li Yichen would be an orphan of Xuantang! If he was allowed to gather the old Xuantang Department, Tongtian would be really in danger!" Jing Hong said with a sad face.
Grandpa Sun did not respond in a hurry, but glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs around him and said lightly: "You go down first, it's none of your business here!"
The palace maids and eunuchs knew that Gonggong Sun was going to discuss a big matter with the emperor, so they didn't dare to procrastinate, so they bent down after making a blessing ceremony. After the palace maids and eunuchs left, Jing Hong hurriedly asked, "What is the good plan for Gonggong Sun?"
Grandpa Sun nodded, and spit out a word sharply: "Kill!"
"Kill?"
"That's right! As long as Li Yichen is killed, all problems can be easily solved! Although those people in the rivers and lakes have high kung fu, to put it bluntly, they are just a group of reckless men, brave and unscrupulous! Moreover, those people in the rivers and lakes are all high-minded and arrogant, and no one obeys anyone on weekdays, and now that the two factions of good and evil are gathered together, they must always beware of the people around them stabbing themselves in the back, and even if the number of such a group of rabble is several times larger, it is just a wave of their hands to destroy them! Your Majesty does not have to worry at all! What Your Majesty wants to do is to kill Li Zhichen! As long as Li Zhichen dies, the Xuantang Dynasty will be completely destroyed, as for the old Xuantang Dynasty, hehe, even if they are still alive now, at least they will be around 100 years old, let them rebel, I am afraid that they will have more than enough heart and not enough strength!"
"But... Where is Li Yichen now, how did I kill him!" Jing Hong said weakly.
Gonggong Sun smiled, and said in a strange manner: "Didn't Li Zhichen say that he would come to Tianluo City! This Tianluo City is big or small, it is only the size of a palm, and it is not easy for Your Majesty to find Li Zhichen! But it depends on whether Your Majesty has murderous intentions towards Li Zhichen! Li Zhichen is the brother of the Niangniang of Xiyun!"
"What does Gonggong Sun mean by this? As the emperor of Tongtian, I naturally have to think about the entire Tongtian Empire! Li Yichen is plotting to rebel, no matter whose brother he is, he will definitely die!" Jing Hong blocked and gritted his teeth and shouted: "Gonggong Sun, spread my will, all the Chengtianwei above the four clouds will be dispatched, even if they dig three feet into the ground, they will find out Li Zhichen!"
Grandpa Sun's eyes suddenly burst out with a terrifying light, and he suddenly knelt on one knee and shouted loudly: "Chengtian Wei is the commander of Sun Rui to take the order!"
At this moment, he is no longer the grandfather Sun who covers the sky with one hand in the harem, but the only Jiuyun Chengtian guard in Chengtian, Sun Rui!
Jing Hong's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Remember, don't alarm too many people about this matter, as long as you Cheng Tianwei know, especially not let Xiyun know, do you understand what I mean!"
"Your Majesty, don't worry!" Grandpa Sun waved his sleeves after speaking, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Jing Hong stood with his hands in his hands, looked into the distance, and muttered in a low voice: "Li Yichen, since you sent it to the door yourself, it's no wonder that I can't do it!"
Jing Hong groaned for a while and then shouted softly to a corner, "King Yama is here?"
"The minister is here!" I saw a black shadow appear out of thin air in the corner, and the black shadow knelt on one knee, looking extremely respectful.
Jing Hong slowly spoke: "King Yama, you take a few good hands who are good at concealment to the Wunian Sect to investigate, and see if Shentu Hongliang is not in the Wunian Sect now." Such a master plotting to rebel is really hard for me to sleep!"
"Since Your Majesty is so jealous of Shentu Hongliang, do you need us to eradicate him for Your Majesty?"
Jing Hong raised his eyebrows and asked faintly, "How many dead and how wounded?"
"Six dead and uninjured, fifty percent sure!" said King Yama without hesitation.
Jing Hongqi's breath almost didn't come up, he waved his hand and motioned for King Yama to hurry down, and King Yama also realized that he had said something nonsense, and left in a daze.
Jing Hong's face suddenly became flushed, and his breathing became short. With a 'poof' sound, a large mouthful of blood sprayed on the purple pear wood table in front of him! Jing Hong sat down on the chair with his chest clutched, and after a long time, his face returned to normal. Jing Hong gasped and wiped the fine sweat off his forehead, looking at the remaining blood stains on the table in front of him, Jing Hong smiled bitterly, and called into the palace maid and said lightly: "Wipe the blood clean, don't leave a trace!"
The palace maid looked at the blood on the table and was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and lowered her head and didn't dare to speak. Jing Hong sneered and walked away.
