Chapter 554: Slander

Everyone knows the benefits of the recovery of the Hetao, but only Xu Guangzuo said it in person. Before that, Zhengde, who only wanted to play and have fun, finally woke up after returning from Baoding.

He heard that this recovery of the Hetao is not only beneficial to the country and the people, but also extremely beneficial to his reputation in the history books, and his somewhat gloomy eyes at the moment can't help but flash some brilliance, and his heart is more interested in that Xu Zilong.

Liu Jin is good at observing words and feelings, and seeing that Zhengde seems to be interested in Xu Guangzuo's words, although he looks down on Zhengde, but under the public, Zhengde is the king after all.

If Zhengde was persuaded by Xu Guangzuo's words to Xu Guangzuo and even Xu Zilong's side, I was afraid that Liu Jin's plan would be variable.

At that moment, he didn't wait for Xu Guangzuo to continue, but shouted loudly: "Bah! Dingguo Gong, you have to talk nonsense in the court!"

Xu Guangzuo's words were actually not finished, but he was also a little angry when he was drunk by Liu Jin, looked at Liu Jin, and asked with a stalk on his neck: "This father's words, every word comes from the bottom of his heart, and every word explains the truth, dare to ask Liu Gong, but what nonsense is there?"

"Hmph!" Liu Jin didn't wait for Zhengde to react, but said, "Let me ask you, what was Xu Zilong's identity before he became a general of the Hetao?"

"It's the garrison of Qiang Fort in Ningxia Town!" Xu Guangzuo already knew Zilong's resume, and immediately answered without hesitation.

"Okay!" Liu Jin smiled proudly and said, "Then what you said before, the righteous man Xu Zilong, where did this righteous man come from?"

"This ......" Xu Guangzuo heard the words, in fact, Zilong entered the Hetao and indeed gave up all his positions in the Ming Dynasty, just to draw a clear line with the Ming Dynasty at that time, so as not to make his actions affect the all-out war between the Hetao and the Ming Dynasty, which was also Xu Guangzuo's request at that time.

After all, at that time, no one could be sure that Zilong would definitely be able to disintegrate the Heavenly King faction, and Xu Guangzuo's thoughts at that time were even more about using Zilong as an excuse to delay the peace proposal of the Lord and faction headed by Wei Bin, and take the opportunity to defeat Ordos and achieve brilliant achievements.

It was only later that the form mutated, although Xu Guangzuo had an army of 100,000, but under the cavalry of Ordos and the elite raid of the Tianwang faction, he could only passively defend on the long border of the Great Wall.

At the last moment, Zilong unexpectedly turned the tide, not only overthrowing the Tianwang faction in Hetao with his own strength, but also leading the Hetao army out of the trap, joining forces with Xu Guangzuo to defeat the army of the Tianwang faction in Ashig and forcing back the army of Ordos.

In this way, Xu Guangzuo was impressed with Zilong. He subconsciously didn't want to turn over Zilong's previous situation, so he kept subconsciously calling Zilong a righteous man, so that his heart was a little more peaceful.

But he didn't expect that this title would become a breakthrough for Liu Jin.

Liu Jin saw Xu Guangzuo's words, and immediately took the opportunity to make trouble, and continued to ask: "Then the old man asks Xu Guogong again, do you know what the identity and background of this Xu Zilong, who is highly meritorious in your mouth, before?"

"......" Xu Guangzuo's heart jumped, and he finally understood Liu Jin's trouble, but although he knew, he had no way to deal with it.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, all colleagues!" Liu Jin saw Xu Guangzuo like this, and knew that the arrogance of this Guogong had been suppressed by himself, but he was not ready to let it go, but continued, "This Xu Zilong, who has outstanding merits in the mouth of Xu Guogong, was just a beggar at the beginning, but later by chance, he got the martial arts Wuji Sword Technique of the Demon Sect Master, and he became a Jianghu ranger!"

Later, he met King An's daughter, Miss Zhu Wan'er, and made a private agreement with King An's daughter for life and went to Ningxia. An Wang Xu was quite satisfied with this ranger of the rivers and lakes, so he focused on cultivating him, and handed over the errand of the commander of the training of his palace guard department to this Xu Zilong.

But I never expected that this Xu Zilong turned out to be the leader of the Fengyue Gang and the son of Ma Fengyue, so that the Fengyue Gang and King An were more friendly, and the two families also put a lot of thought into it for the sake of this matter of their children's family.

According to Jinyiwei's report, Xu Zilong, by virtue of his identity as the future son-in-law of King An, not only recruited the Black Wind bandits who had plagued Ningxia for a long time, but also scattered the families of these bandits into the jurisdiction of the Fengyue Gang, and even more, he also organized the Black Wind Bandits into the defenders of Zhenqiang Fort, and he became the garrison of Zhenqiang Fort.

As for Xu Zilong going to Ningxia alone, Wei Bin and Wei Gonggong once told me.

That's because the condition of the Heavenly King faction is to force our Daming to hand over the Fengyue Gang and Ma Fengyue, but not only Xu Zilong, his own son, does not agree, but even King An does not agree.

In order to reconcile the opinions of the two sides, Xu Guogong, who was in charge, removed Xu Zilong from his post and sent him to the Hetao to wait for an opportunity to dismantle the Tianwang faction.

Just because Xu Zilong went to Hetao, King An left his post without permission, and together with the thousands of defenders recruited by bandits in Zhenqiang Fort, he went north to Hetao, helped Xu Zilong, and defeated the Tianwang faction.

And the fall of the Heavenly King Faction, no matter what happened to these people, it was just because the Han and Mongolian factions within the Heavenly King Faction were vying for power and profit, and Hu Dulu, the leader of the Beji people, wanted to resist the rule of the Heavenly King Faction, Xu Zilong and others just happened at the right time, and the credit for this may not be much, but the guilt in this is definitely not less!

What's more, after this Xu Shenjun was named a general of the Hetao by the imperial court, instead of staying in the Hetao and doing his best to serve the emperor, he once again left the Hetao without authorization and entered the Central Plains.

During this period, he joined the Tianyin Sect and other demon sects, slaughtered more than 1,000 martial artists in Mount Tai, and entangled Shaolin, Wudang and other factions, fought a vicious battle with the Tianyin Sect, and finally became the leader of the martial arts alliance as he wished.

Can such a person who stirs up trouble and only knows how to seek his own selfishness, disregard the righteousness of the world, and leave his post without permission, can he still be called a meritorious hero, and can he still be called a righteous man?

Dingguogong, Xu Guogong, let me ask you, is he worthy of such a person?"

After Mount Emei failed again at the hands of Zilong, Liu Jin sent three factories and one guard to investigate Zilong's past everywhere, but he investigated Zilong's affairs very clearly.

The above things are all true, but Liu Jin explained it from another angle, and he turned Zilong, a loyal and courageous chivalrous man, into a villain with selfish and bad intentions.

Liu Jin finished speaking word by word, but Xu Guangzuo's face was also pale, and he didn't know how to argue for a while.

However, Liu Jin's henchman, Cao Yuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, immediately stood up, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "If it weren't for Liu Gong's words, the lower officials and others would still be kept in the dark by this traitorous traitor! This person not only stirs up trouble everywhere and stirs up peace in the world, but is also good at taking advantage of the situation and strength to cultivate his own power, and he is really a person with ill intentions!"

"That's good!" Gu Dayong, who was standing aside and had not spoken, also came forward and said, "According to the Dongchang report, this Xu Zilong not only used the remnants of the Tianyin Sect to set up a gang called the Tianlong Gang, but also took advantage of the opportunity to fight against the Tianyin Sect and became the leader of the martial arts alliance. And among the tribes of the Hetao grassland, his name of the king of the Hetao is spread!"

"King Hetao?" Emperor Zhengde was still quite interested in Zilong, but when he heard such a name, he couldn't help but be a little shocked.

The Queen Mother, who was sitting next to Emperor Zhengde, was even more angry on the surface, but in her heart, she was as if she had eaten honey, sweet, and deliberately said angrily: "How can this be true, my highest title in the Ming Dynasty is in terms of a national prince! Your Majesty, the mourning family suggests that you make an order now, remove him from his post as a staff general in the Hetao, and order him to return to Beijing to await trial.

"What the Queen Mother said is very true!" Liu Jin saw that Zilong's image in the imperial court had been ruined into a selfish villain, and he immediately said very happily, "During the Chenghua period, there was still a victory in the Battle of the Red Salt Pond, and now Your Majesty is wise and martial, quite similar to Taizu and Taizong, and will definitely be able to capture Xu Zilong in one battle and completely fill the chaos in the Hetao!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Cao Yuan took the lead again.

"The ministers seconded the proposal!" the other Liu Jin henchmen naturally stood up and said,

After a while, more than half of the courtiers in the huge Fengtian Hall stood up and seconded Liu Jin's suggestion, but it was quite shocking.

Emperor Zhengde sat high on the dragon chair, looking at the ministers below seconding the proposal, and couldn't help but don't know what to do.

Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, when Emperor Zhengde was in a coma, he faintly heard people mention that Xu Zilong's appearance was the same as himself.

In addition, after Yujiazhuang broke through, the two girls named Huang Zhangxiang and Liang Mengxue came to chase and kill, but it was Xu Zilong and Shangshan Muzi who sacrificed their lives to rescue.

In the end, Xu Zilong, a person with strong martial arts, was also poisoned by the two women because of his own drag, and was put to the ground.

And according to Qian Ning's words afterwards, this Xu Zilong is high-spirited, rushing to kill in front and retreating behind, he is really a good man with a thin sky.

How could such a person be the kind of selfish person Liu Jin said who blindly only thought about his own interests? How could such a person be scheming, cultivating power, and having bad intentions?

But now above the court, half of the ministers have risen to admonish, and there are even people like the Queen Mother and Liu Jin, but Emperor Zhengde agrees with their admonitions, and does not agree with their admonitions, so he doesn't know what to do for a while, so he stays there.
