Chapter 85: Exterminate the White Lotus
"How's the infiltration of the army?"
"The situation is very good, this is the list of generals who have returned to obedience. The middle-aged man took out a piece of white linen paper from his sleeve and respectfully handed it to the old man.
"You are doing a good job, if you continue this trend, we can launch an uprising and occupy Jinhua Mansion City within a month. The old man glanced at the list in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Helmsman, Sect Master...... Will you come over?" the middle-aged man paused and asked belantly.
The old man shook his head: "The sect leader is currently in Shandong, but it is not clear that there will be an uprising in that mansion. We just need to do our own tasks, when the Jinhua uprising is successful, uprisings will rise one after another, turbulent the world, and the court will suffer a fatal blow. ”
"I hope this troubled world will end soon, the green demons and the demons are eyeing Huaxia and are eating our territory. The middle-aged man sighed.
The old man said warmly: "The land annexation in the court is becoming more and more serious, the taxes and forced labor are increasing, the social contradictions are becoming more and more intense, the people's lives are miserable, and the dragon pulse is exhausted. The Sect Master is an emperor given to us by God to reform the old system and save the world. ”
A flash of hope flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and he bowed down and said, "Then I will leave first and work hard for the common people in the world." ”
"What kind of people are these!" Ning Caichen glanced at the unfathomable old man, followed the middle-aged man, and walked out of the courtyard.
Unhurriedly, he followed all the way into a large military camp. Ning Caichen thought for a moment, lowered his head and asked, "Xiaoqian, you should be able to make him tell the truth, right?"
"Of course you can, what do you want to do?" Xiao Qian said seriously.
The night was getting deeper, the bright moon was hanging high, the bonfire was fierce, and all the high-level officials of Jinhua Mansion were invited by Luo Yinghao to the barracks and came to the main tent.
"Luo Tuiguan, what do you have to talk about here at night?" the prefect frowned and looked at the person below, his tone quite dissatisfied.
"Let Lord Ning tell your colleagues, I was also entrusted by him to make this kind of invitation. Luo Yinghao pointed to Ning Caichen, who was standing aside, with a stern face.
In the midst of countless dissatisfied eyes, Ning Caichen was bound hand and foot, gagged, and the middle-aged man hiding in the shadows was pulled out and thrown in the middle of the main tent: "This person is a disciple of the White Lotus Sect, and he has colluded with many generals and is preparing to carry out a mutiny and uprising in the rest of the month. ”
"This ...... Impossible, right?" the hearts of many officials trembled, and the prefect subconsciously clenched his fists and asked seriously.
Ning Caichen pulled the cloth from the middle-aged man's mouth and said in a deep voice: "Repeat all the questions I asked you before." ”
"My name is Zhou Rugui, the general of the army, my real identity is the White Lotus Sect, and I am responsible for the rebellion against the lieutenant general of the army......"
After saying a few words, I learned that a large part of the generals had been turned against him, and the officials present were drenched in cold sweat and looked at each other with horror on their faces.
"Is this true?" the prefect asked in shock.
Ning Caichen handed over the list of anti-officials that Zhou Rugui had silently written down before, and said in a deep voice: "I shouldn't take care of the affairs in the army, now please deploy enough innate martial artists for me, as well as three thousand reliable soldiers, I will take them to destroy the White Lotus Sect's lair in Jinhua!"
The prefect looked at him deeply, and after a long time, he said in a deep voice: "This mansion will go with you, if you really exterminate the nest of the White Lotus Sect, you should personally go to the cabinet and ask for credit for you." ”
Ning Caichen sneered in his heart, and simply didn't care about the tricks in the other party's heart, the White Lotus Sect, which was always ready to destroy his family, was the existence he hated the most, and not killing it was not enough to calm his anger.
In the face of a virus-like existence like the White Lotus Sect, no one dared to be negligent, and no one dared to be cheating and tricky. The innate martial artists who were hidden behind the prefect and the officials in the past were dispatched one after another, a total of fourteen innate warriors, together with three thousand sergeants, followed Ning Caichen and galloped towards the location of the helmsman of the White Lotus Sect.
In the middle of the night, in front of the silent alley, three thousand soldiers surrounded the place, Ning Caichen led the fourteen congenital people to the alley, and the White Lotus cultist who was in charge of the vigilance was killed by the congenital gang qi before he could make a sound.
In front of the courtyard of the White Lotus Helmsman, a congenital master had just broken through the courtyard gate, and a group of figures armed with knives and guns came out and attacked everyone.
Seeing the old man in front of the crowd, Ning Caichen quickly retreated, hid behind the fourteen innate masters, and said loudly: "The one who led the team to attack is the helmsman of the White Lotus Sect, if he kills him, he will definitely be able to achieve a miraculous merit, and the wife and shadow are right in front of him." ”
"Ning Caichen, you are looking for death!" the old man was furious, and frantically rushed towards the last figure of the crowd. It's a pity that although he is strong, he can't break through the blockade of the Fourteen Innate Beings after all, and as for the White Lotus Sect members who follow him, they are even more vulnerable in front of the Innate Martial Artists.
After a short time, the people around the old man gradually died in battle, and the White Lotus Sect members in the entire alley were also driven out by three thousand soldiers, and those who did not obey were directly killed, and those who obeyed were taken aside. The encirclement gradually narrowed, and thousands of people watched the old man and the trapped beast fight!
"Peng!" The old man was knocked down from mid-air by an innate martial artist, and fell heavily to the ground, smashing out a big hole. Another Xiantian just wanted to step forward and end his life, but he heard the prefect say loudly: "Leave a living mouth and hand it over to the court for trial, there must be no mistake." ”
The innate master paused, stepped on the old man in anger, and abolished his dantian, and then stood aside, feeling sorry in his heart.
"My lord, I have collected the banners and items of the White Lotus Sect, as well as the accounts of the generals and officials of the military camp and the officials of Jinhua who accepted bribes. The three generals walked up to the prefect with countless things in their arms and knelt down and said.
The prefect breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and ordered: "Put the people here, including this White Lotus helmsman, to Jinhua Prison together, remember, and tell the prison guards to show me the people." ”
When the general was ordered to leave, among the group of officials who volunteered to follow, a few of them suddenly knelt on the ground and wept bitterly, saying that they had been deceived and received silver taels from the White Lotus Sect, asking for atonement.
The prefect glanced at them coldly, sent someone to take care of them, escorted them to the prison together, turned to Ning Caichen and said, "Lord Ning, you have really made a great contribution this time, I will go back to the book now, ask for the cause and effect of the incident, and ask for credit for you." ”
Ning Caichen smiled and arched his hand: "I'm just leading the way, the prefect has more strength than me in exterminating the bandits." ”
The prefect showed a look of satisfaction on his face: "Then you can go home and wait for good news, the credit this time is too great, maybe you will be knighted by the imperial court." ”
Ning Caichen thought of the current situation of internal and external troubles in the court, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Can you ask your lord to help me pass on a word when I am in the book?"
The prefect was slightly stunned: "What do you want to say?"
"The scholar has no intention of being a marquis, he just wants to be an imperial official who punishes evil and promotes good. Ning Caichen said seriously.
The prefect was completely stunned, it was the dream of countless men to be knighted and conferred, but he refused simply, and even wanted to use the title in exchange for the promotion of the position of official...... Could it be that the disciples in the academy really disdain the glory and wealth?
