Chapter 6: Killing
Huang Zhen, who was doing business in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, was stunned at first and then furious after receiving Xiaohe's message. Cui Ximin and An Xiaohui were really too bold, if they stole the silver of the Chamber of Commerce, they would dare to steal Wang Yue's gold.
Although Wang Yue did not do business, he had super gold sore medicine in his hand. Every month, Huang Zhen was able to get a hundred bottles of medicine from Wang Yue. It can be said that Wang Yue is Huang Zhen's God of Wealth. What's more, Wang Yue is still a "miracle doctor".
Huang Zhen is much older than Wang Yue, it stands to reason that Wang Yue should be a junior, but when Huang Zhen saw Wang Yue, he was even more worried than when he saw Mu Renqing.
"These two rebels are really too bold. Huang Zhen sighed, "What King Chuang is doing is a rebellious business, can the two of them be involved?"
Actually, Huang Zhen didn't know that a big reason why An Xiaohui and Cui Ximin worshiped Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, was because of himself. Huang Zhen has to contribute one million taels of silver to King Chuang's military salary every year, and he often says something about King Chuang in front of An Xiaohui and Cui Ximin, which makes the two curious about King Chuang.
As the saying goes, curiosity kills cats.
With curiosity comes naturally attention.
Three years ago, Aunt An, who helped in the Huangzhen Chamber of Commerce, also went to the Chuang Wang military camp and participated in the "great cause" of rebellion.
"Someone!"
Huang Zhen said loudly.
A subordinate quickly walked in: "Master, what do you command?"
Huang Zhen said: "You ask someone to send another five hundred taels of gold to Huashan and give it to the little lotus girl." Also, let the Chamber of Commerce pay attention to it, and see where my two disciples, An Xiaohui and Cui Ximin, are now? ”
"Yes. Master. The subordinate immediately followed Huang Zhen's instructions.
Wang Yue's current identity is not ordinary, not everyone can see it. Not to mention the subordinates in the Chamber of Commerce, even if Huang Zhen personally went to Huashan and wanted to find Wang Yue, he had to go through Xiaohe's level.
It's not that Wang Yue is putting on a show and being high, but that Wang Yue often retreats in order to cultivate, and no one can be disturbed. If you want to see him, you can only make an appointment in advance through Xiaohe.
Huang Zhen doesn't know yet. Wang Yue's "refining gods" Xiaocheng, his cultivation has reached the level of a grandmaster, and he has been out of the customs a few days ago.
When the subordinates left, Huang Zhen said: "Forget it, five hundred taels of gold in the hands of these two rebels." Just follow their wishes and give it to King Chuang as a military salary. When the time comes. I will take these two rebels to Huashan again. personally apologize to Wang Yue, hoping that Wang Yue can forgive them. ”
What An Xiaohui and Cui Ximin did this time did make Huang Zhen very angry, but Huang Zhen is also a person who protects his shortcomings, and An Xiaohui and Cui Ximin have been obedient since childhood. Now that it's happened, it's not good to criticize them too much. Finding a way to remedy it is the right way.
............
Huashan, Xiaohe Courtyard.
When Sun Zhongshou heard that it was Li Yan and Liu Fangliang who were coming, he stood up and said, "I didn't expect these two to come." Young master. I'd better go and greet it myself. We can't lose the etiquette of our 'Mountain Sect'. ”
In order to redress Yuan Chonghuan's grievances, Sun Zhongshou, Zhu Guoan and others united with the old ministry and established the organization "Mountain Sect". Shanzong has Yuan Chengzhi as the young master, but it is Sun Zhongshou and Zhu Guoan who are actually in charge.
When Sun Zhongshou left the courtyard, Yuan Chengzhi asked Wang Yue: "Uncle Wang, are Li Yan and Liu Fangliang really so good?"
Although Yuan Chengzhi is strong in martial arts, his vision is not high, and he is a little nervous when he hears the origin of Li Yan and Liu Fangliang. After all, the two of them are high-ranking officials in the army of King Chuang, and they are also celebrities in front of King Li Zicheng.
Wang Yue glanced at Yuan Chengzhi, took a sip of tea, and secretly said in his heart, Xiaohe is still a good artist in making tea, and the tea he brewed by himself feels that the taste is not very right.
"What's the deal?" Wang Yue smiled slightly, "Li Yan is still a little educated, he is a scholar, and he has been promoted, Liu Fangliang I don't know very well." Cheng Zhi, Li Yan and Liu Fangliang came this time, they should be looking for your Mountain Sect Alliance, King Chuang has a request for you, you have to take the initiative. Don't be sold, and help people count the money. ”
Yuan Chengzhi is Wang Yue's junior, and Yuan Chonghuan also saved Wang Yue's life, Wang Yue felt that he should remind him at this time.
Sun Zhongshou came in with two young men.
The young man in the scribe's robe, Wang Yue guessed, should be Li Yan, and the other one was Liu Fangliang.
"Young master. ”
Sun Zhongshou introduced: "These two are Li Yanjun and General Liu Fangliang. Two, this is our young master, Yuan Chengzhi. ”
Li Yan and Liu Fangliang clasped their fists.
"In Xia Li Yan, I have seen the young master of the Mountain Sect. ”
"Under Liu Fangliang, I have seen the young master of the Mountain Sect. ”
Yuan Chengzhi also said happily: "Under Yuan Chengzhi, I have seen Li Junshi and General Liu. The two of them are martial arts, but Chengzhi admires them. ”
Wang Yue shook his head secretly, Yuan Chengzhi was still too immature. I told him just now, Li Yan and Liu Fangliang are nothing remarkable. But now that I see these two people, I am still so excited.
Zhu Guoan asked: "I don't know what the two of you have to teach you when you go up the mountain this time."
Li Yan hugged his fists and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." In fact, I knew that the young master of the Mountain Sect was cultivating in seclusion in Huashan, but Mu Daxia didn't let us come to disturb him, and now the young master is going down the mountain, so I came to see him. ”
Yuan Chengzhi said with a smile: "Master Li, you are so polite. ”
Li Yan took out a couplet and said: "In the thick and ink, a little bit of heart, everyone is smiling." ”
Opening the couplet, Li Yan read: "Huanglong did not mess with Wu Mu Meng's injustice, and Han Zuo is waiting to recover Zhuge Xing's fall." ”
Wang Yue nodded secretly, not to mention the content of the couplet, just this word is good, this Li Yan is worthy of being a person who has been lifted. And he is also very good at sycophants, no wonder he can mix well in Li Zicheng's army.
Sure enough, Yuan Chengzhi and others were very excited when they saw this couplet.
Sun Zhongshou said happily: "Okay, okay." This is a comparison of our supervisor to Yue Fei and Zhuge Liang. ”
Li Yan said with a smile: "Inspector Yuan is the person he admires the most, and his Wen Tao and martial arts strategy can be compared to Wu Mu Zhuge . However, the faint monarch of Wu State, and the traitorous ministers were in charge, which made Inspector Yuan unjustly killed. Emperor Chongzhen, this is self-destructing the Great Wall. Misleading the country and the people. I have always wanted to go to the grave of Inspector Yuan to pay respects, but I couldn't do it, so I wrote this elegy and handed it to the young master, which can be regarded as the fulfillment of my long-cherished wish. ”
Yuan Chengzhi took the coupling and said gratefully: "Li Junshi, you are really my father's bosom friend." ”
Wang Yue sighed and said, "Okay, okay." Let's get down to business, and don't be so sour. Having said so much, it's all nonsense. ”
In the annex courtyard. Only Wang Yue was sitting, and the others all stood up to greet Li Yan and Liu Fangliang.
Li Yan only now noticed Wang Yue sitting behind Yuan Chengzhi.
"I don't know, who is this?" Li Yan wondered.
Yuan Chengzhi smiled: "Oh. This is my Uncle Wang, Wang Yue. ”
Li Yan and Liu Fangliang exclaimed: "Ah. ”
This young man is the "miracle doctor" that King Chuang wants to recruit?
Wang Yue's name as a "miracle doctor". shocked the world, but not many people have seen Wang Yue. Wang Yue went out to treat those landlords and old wealth. It's all makeup and disguise.
in the consciousness of ordinary people. The divine doctors are all immortal bones and gray hair. Wang Yue. A teenager is too incompatible with the "miracle doctor".
Now that Li Yan and Liu Fangliang saw Wang Yue, they were naturally extremely surprised.
"I've seen a miracle doctor. ”
Li Yan and Liu Fangliang hurriedly clasped their fists and saluted.
Wang Yue shook his hand and said, "No need to be polite. Divine doctor, you are exalting me too much, I just know how to heal. Hehe, sit down, don't even stand. ”
Although Wang Yue is a "miracle doctor". But he still knows how to be humble.
After everyone sat down, Li Yan said: "You should know that now the army of King Chuang is fighting in Shaanxi, and the Ming army has been defeated. Wipe out tens of thousands of them. King Chuang will soon march eastward and take the capital directly. When the time comes, if we can get the help of the mountain sect, wouldn't it be like a tiger with wings? ”
Li Yan said to Wang Yue again: "King Chuang fought with the Ming army and was injured, I hope that the divine doctor can go to Shaanxi to treat King Chuang." Li Yan was grateful. ”
When Yuan Chengzhi heard that King Chuang was injured, he was anxious, and he also said, "Uncle Wang, you can agree." ”
"Huh?" Wang Yue glared at Yuan Chengzhi.
"Master Li. I, Wang Yue, am not from the Mountain Sect, so I am not qualified to ask you. Wang Yue looked at Li Yan and said lightly, "But my Wang Yue's life, after all, was saved by Inspector Yuan." Now, in my capacity as Uncle Yuan Chengzhi, I would like to ask you a few questions. I don't know if it's possible?"
Li Yan nodded and said, "Divine doctor, please." ”
Wang Yue asked with a smile: "The Mountain Sect can help King Chuang take the capital, and when the time comes, the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed, and you will be the lord of the world." Outside the Shanhai Pass, the Houjin Tartars are eyeing the Central Plains, how can you resist the enemy?"
"Throughout the ages, rebellions have been under the banner of saving the people of the world and saving the lives of the world. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang are like this, Zhang Jiao is like this, and King Chuang is also like this. ”
"May I ask Master Li, after you win the world, how should you govern and let the people of the world live a good life?"
Li Yan's face turned pale, and Liu Fangliang was even more at a loss.
They were just thinking about how to take down the capital, and they didn't think about these things at all, and even Li Zicheng didn't think about it.
Wang Yue had a sneer in his eyes: "It seems that none of you have thought about these problems. So what are you thinking? I'll guess. ”
"Now King Chuang's power is extremely great, and there are already many factions in the army. The strategists and generals are thinking about being promoted and making a fortune, and Li Zicheng is even more thinking about the dragon chair under Chongzhen's buttocks, as well as the beauties in the harem. ”
"As for the people, they are used to siege the city as cannon fodder, and if you get the country, what do you want these ants for......?"
Wang Yue took a sip of tea, stood up, and walked out the door.
"Li Yan, if you can answer my questions and satisfy me. Not only will I go to see a doctor for King Chuang, but I will also give all my belongings, fifteen million taels of silver, to pay for King Chuang's army. Wang Yue's figure disappeared, and the voice sounded in the courtyard.
Li Yan's eyes were blank, and his mind was blank.
Where did Li Zicheng, the post station boy, consider these questions of Wang Yue? Isn't the rebellion just for the sake of being promoted to an official position and making a fortune, and to be prosperous and rich?
Even Li Yan, a lifter, never thought about how to govern the country.
Sun Zhongshou, Zhu Anguo and others were silent for a while.
Yuan Chengzhi said anxiously to Li Yan: "Master Li, with your Wen Taowu strategy, it shouldn't be difficult to answer my Uncle Wang's questions, right? As long as he said it, Uncle Wang would offer fifteen million taels of silver, and he would also go to treat the wounds of King Chuang and those generals. Isn't that what you want?"
Wang Yue is rich, very rich, Yuan Chengzhi knows, but he doesn't know how much. Now that Wang Yue said it, he knew that Wang Yue had earned fifteen million taels of silver in the past twelve years.
This is fifteen million taels of silver, as long as he has this money, King Chuang will no longer have to worry about military salaries.
Li Yan also wanted the money, but it was impossible to get it.
It's okay for him to make up songs and ballads to deceive the ignorant people.
What kind of trick of "breaking into the king and not paying food" and bluffing ghosts, can be deceived with Wang Yue's wisdom? Impossible.
Wang Yue's guess was right, there were already many factions in King Chuang's army, and they were all short-sighted people, who only thought about promotion and wealth, and King Chuang only thought about the throne.
As for how to govern the country, how to fight against Houjin?
Which of these things are the things that they, the peasants, think about?
Li Yan smiled embarrassedly: "Young master." I'll think about it for two days first, and after thinking it through, I'll go to see Doctor Wang. ”
After speaking, Li Yan stood up and walked out of the courtyard with Liu Fang.
............
Li Yan and Liu Fangliang left, and Yuan Chengzhi asked Sun Zhongshou and the others: "Is what Uncle Sun, Uncle Zhu, and Uncle Wang said true? Does King Chuang really just want to be the emperor? Are the generals under his command really just thinking about being promoted and making a fortune, regardless of the life or death of the people?"
Yuan Chengzhi is immature and has no social experience, but this does not mean that he is a fool. Li Yan couldn't answer a word when Wang Yue asked, which is very revealing. It's just that Yuan Chengzhi doesn't want to believe it.
Yuan Chengzhi has always thought that King Chuang is righteous, but now, King Chuang's image of justice suddenly collapsed in his heart.
"Isn't there a good person in this world?" Yuan Chengzhi said secretly in his heart.
Sun Zhongshou said helplessly: "Maybe." Young master, you also know that our Mountain Sect has no friendship with King Chuang. They want to rebel and overthrow the Ming Dynasty, and we just want Emperor Chongzhen to admit his mistake and rehabilitate Zhaoxue for Inspector Yuan. It's different. ”
Sun Zhongshou believes in Wang Yue, the Ming Dynasty is corrupt (defeated), and it is not much better to break into Wang's army.
............
Li Yan and Liu Fang showed up when they left the courtyard, and their faces were gloomy all the time. Until they returned to the tent at the bottom of the mountain, they were still angry.
Liu Fangliang had a cold light in his eyes and said, "Military advisor, it seems that it is impossible for Wang Yue to go to Shaanxi with us to treat King Chuang's injuries. I think we might as well arrest him, force him to confess the whereabouts of the fifteen million taels of silver, and then kill him. God doesn't know it!"
Li Yan shook his head and said, "No." Wang Yue can be caught, but not killed. When Huang Zhen sent silver to King Chuang last time, he inadvertently said that the super gold sore medicine was configured by Wang Yue. We have to get the formula for the super gold sore medicine, that's what really counts. And he also has to find a way to force Wang Yue to work for King Chuang, after all, he is a miracle doctor. ”
Liu Fangliang said excitedly: "Yes, the military advisor is right. We have to get the formula. ”
Li Yan secretly said in his heart: "Wang Yue, you don't know the current affairs, don't blame me Li Yanxin for being ruthless." ”
