Chapter 288 The ideal of life (2)
Chapter 290: Continuous Attacks and Kills (Part 2)
Lu Feng quickly glanced at Monk Daoyan. The so-called dog owner's figure, when you look at Monk Daoyan's resentment towards the right saint, you will know how "harmonious" the relationship between Yuansheng and Right saint is. It can be imagined that Monk Daoyan is just a character who runs errands under Yuansheng. He dares to say the words of gathering people to siege and killing the right saint. The position of Yuansheng in their organization is far higher than that of Right saint. Originally, "Yuan" is the beginning of all things and has a vague sense of being in the center. In other words, Yuansheng should be a person with extremely special identities in this organization.
The six people sat down in the spacious hall. Lu Feng looked up at the black Buddha statue and cursed softly in his heart. Two monks in black who looked about thirty years old walked in quietly, brought six cups of fragrant tea, turned around and walked out, and brought the door with his backhand.
Four old Taoists, A, B, C and D, sat dumbly on the cushion and took a sip. Lu Feng picked up the teacup and asked a little annoyedly: "Senior Brother, what do you think about this matter?" He deliberately made this expression, just to see what Monk Daoyan had intended. Since he knew that Zhu Yu might cooperate with the Right Saint, if Lu Feng didn't light up the fire, he would not be Lu Feng anymore.
Monk Taoist smiled faintly, the Buddhist beads on his fingers quickly flowed for a while, and he asked Lu Feng with his eyes drooping, "How dare you?"
Lu Feng nodded and told all the things he ordered the Jinyiwei and the Breaking Camp to be alert. There was nothing to hide. Monk Daoyan also had many eyes and ears in Yingtian Mansion. He mobilized a large number of masters from the Jinyiwei and sent someone to take over the military power of the Breaking Camp. It would be strange if this matter could be hidden from him.
Monk Daoyan smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Wonderful, that's great. Well, senior brother, I think that if the Second Prince really sends someone to do not help you, it's okay to kill them all. No matter how brave the Second Prince is, he will not dare to go to the front of His Majesty with the Assassin he sent, right? But, we have to stab the Second Prince in secret and stab him a few times, but on the surface, we still have to act like we are suffering. This is the perfect solution!"
Lu Feng nodded silently, looked at Monk Daoyan, hoping that he would have any good insights. Monk Daoyan smiled coldly: "Then Zhu Yu, hehe, just a clown, he thought that with the help of a few Qi Refiners, he would be able to make a big deal? Humph, it would not be difficult to eradicate him just by asking Yuan Sheng to take action himself to kill a Zhu Yu, but we just took advantage of this opportunity to get the best interests."
Monk Daoyan's eyes flashed and his tone was gloomy: "My Ming Dynasty was originally founded by military generals, but Emperor Taizu was afraid that the generals would seize his throne, so he used civil officials to restrain military generals, making the power of military generals in the court far less than those civil officials... But the Second Highness is also in love with most generals in the military, and is a representative figure of the military. Then we just take advantage of the dispute with the Second Highness to have a good relationship with those civil officials, hey!"
Lu Feng nodded and agreed with the opinion of monk Taoyan. Originally, in the court, civil officials had been deliberately suppressing the forces of the military general system. Now that Zhu Li is constantly colluding with military generals, those civil officials naturally refuse to surrender to Zhu Li. As long as Zhu Xi shows them a little good, these civil officials who hold the power of the court will naturally be happy to join forces with him. As long as they promise them enough benefits, what are these civil officials unwilling to do? What they ask for is only high officials and generous salaries.
Monk Daoyan continued: "Secretly, junior brother, you can let go of killing. Except for the important figures under Zhu Yu who cannot be killed, other party members, as long as they can be attacked, they can kill them. Murong Tian and Lei Zhenyuan, a general whom His Majesty knows, will cause His Majesty's anger, but Zhu Yu took the guards of Luo's masters and killed them completely? Just find a scapegoat afterwards. But on the surface, we have to compromise and let the civil and military officials in the court see us, and we are beaten so hard that we can't raise our heads."
He said sinisterly: "Last time at the criminal department, my junior brother played the trick very beautifully. My junior brother might as well kill a few unscrupulous subordinates by himself, so that His Majesty thought that Zhu Yu's assassin was assassinating the generals of the Jinyiwei. In addition, I said a few harsh words in front of His Majesty. It would be hard for Your Majesty to not be angry. My junior brother might as well cut myself a few times. Everyone in front of others looked like the Jinyiwei was panicked. Although my junior brother seemed a little incompetent, he could gain sympathy!"
Monk Daoyan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, saying disdainfully: "Which civil officials in the court, from Xie Jin to Ru Taisu, are not Lao J's cunning, full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and behind the scenes of men and women's prostitutes? Seeing the military generals join forces to suppress the forces of the Jinyiwei and the Your Highness, they will naturally be afraid that if Zhu Yu takes power and ascends to the throne in the future, the military general system will cover the sky with one hand. No matter what they say, they will show goodwill to us. As long as these people are moved, they will not surrender to us, is it possible?"
Monk Daoyan's face was very vicious. Two green lights shot out in his eyes, and he smiled evilly: "Hey, senior brother, I instigate Your Majesty to go to the northern and southern expeditions a few more times, and send Huaneng. Zhang Yu and his group of people divided their troops to fight. We will cause some trouble for them in the rear, such as how many days later, such as food and grass will be late, and hehe! The defeated generals are not liked by Your Majesty. Then, let Zhu Li lead the army to the expedition in person, and find a chance to leak a few pieces of information to the Yuanmeng Tartars. Are you still afraid that Chi Menger will not let Zhu Li suffer a good loss?"
"When attacking at the same time, it will greatly reduce Zhu Zi's strength. The strength of the military general system will be weakened, and the power of the military general system will naturally be loyal to the civil officials. At that time, it will be much more convenient for us to act." The monk and Taoist whirled the Buddhist beads and smiled mysteriously: "It's like the matter of moving the capital, isn't these civil officials unwilling to agree to it? But after we get along with them, they are afraid that they will continue to object... In the future, when His Highness ascends the throne, the government will be completely under our control. Isn't it like a ruling hand to do what I want to do?"
Lu Feng nodded repeatedly with a smile, looking respectful. He asked carefully: "Senior Brother Daoyan, but he doesn't understand why the capital is so important?"
Monk Daoyan smiled and shrugged his shoulders with a mysterious face. He said with a smile: "There is a matter of course, but it has too much to say it at this time. In short, hehe, if we can make these civil officials completely obey our orders and make them agree with His Majesty's will to move the capital." His eyes were circling, his expression was floating, as if he was hesitating whether to reveal more information to Lu Feng.
Lu Feng saw the thoughts of monk Daoyan and hurriedly said, "Since it is important, there is no need to say anything. The junior brother's subordinates have been assigned to stop being assigned. As long as the second prince dares to send someone to make trouble, the junior brother will naturally not make them feel good. However, maybe things will be a big deal, and the senior brother needs to argue a few words in front of His Majesty." This time, this sentence was the most important thing. He was going to take people to let the massacre in Yingtian Mansion. Zhu Di naturally needed someone to stabilize him.
Monk Daoyan laughed loudly, and he nodded repeatedly and said, "This matter is very easy, junior brother, don't worry... In fact, the junior brother is now in a high position. It's not a big deal to kill a few people and mobilize thousands of troops." He said with a strange look: "Junior brother is so brave, he really dares to give the mantra of practicing Taoism to His Majesty... Well, those who practice Taoism are most taboo to interfere with the luck of the world too much. This emperor is the person who sends the luck of the world, but junior brother is...hey!"
Monk Daoyan hesitated for a while, and showed a slightly concerned look: "I have already reported this matter to the sect leader, but the sect leader praised his junior's actions very much. Well, there will definitely be good news from the sect leader soon, but the sect brother has to pay attention to his practice recently. He gave the emperor the mantra of cultivation. This matter is the most damaging thing. I am afraid that the heavenly disaster will occur soon. Junior brother must be careful."
Lu Feng frowned. He tried to practice Taoist tutors for Zhu Di that day just to gain more trust from Zhu Di. However, seeing Monk Daoyan's cautious appearance, he knew that he was indeed reckless. It can be seen that Monk Daoyan and his sect must be a lawless and rampant organization, but even such Monk Daoyan did not dare to do what he did. I guess the matter was indeed very important.
After making a heart, Lu Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Damn, I have done such a thing. If God is dissatisfied, he will drop the thunder and strike me to death? Humph, my hands are covered with blood. If I want to be hit by the thunder, I will probably have become powder long ago. So what if I have another sin?... Hehe, a Taoist ritual is exchanged for the Duke of the People's Republic of China, and my junior brother will not lose money!"
Monk Daoyan, A, B, B and D, looked at Lu Feng with a strange face. After a long time, the five people nodded repeatedly: "No wonder the sect leader is extremely concerned about his junior brother, but the sect leader is indeed foresighted. The junior brother is indeed a Taoist person. His behavior is unpredictable, and he does not abide by the laws of heaven and the rules of heaven, and he has the style of my Taoism!" Monk Daoyan sighed in his heart: "Damn, he is a fool who is not afraid of death. Although I don't believe in this God, the net of heaven is vast, and I dare not do such a taboo thing!... The young man's behavior really makes me admire him!"
The two of them had been discussing for a long time. They discussed how to deal with the current situation and how to act as if they were deeply suppressed. Then Lu Feng took A, B, C and D away. The monk Daoyan sent him to the gate attentively, and then said a lot. Then he watched Lu Feng ride on the war horse and leave with the four old Taoists.
Looking back at the little officials in the doorman with a flattering smile, Monk Daoyan showed a gentle smile and said, "You guys have been waiting for a long time. I really have something to discuss with Lord Lu. Please forgive me if you are negligent." The smiling monk Daoyan reached out to soothe the guest and led the little officials into his mansion.
That night, while Lu Feng was patrolling the night with 500 soldiers from the Governor's Office, he was suddenly assassinated by a group of men in black on the street. Lu Feng killed dozens of assassins, but no hair was injured on his body, but the city defense troops suffered heavy casualties, with only more than ten people spared. At that time, it was the most lively night market. Hundreds of people nearby were injured by accident, and the entire Yingtian Prefecture was in chaos. The Jinyiwei, the City Defense Army, the Ministry of Justice, the Yingtian Prefecture, and the Imperial Army all came out, but the assassin did not even get a single hair.
Lu Feng took thousands of masters to break into the house and chased the assassins everywhere, but he was amazed in his heart: "These assassins he hired are good at being good and have a hard hand. Although the 500 soldiers I brought out were the worst group of soldiers, they were chopped to death by them like chopping melons and vegetables. It was rare... Hey, this confused account was settled on the Second Prince, but I don't know if he was happy or angry!"
He took the Jinyiwei to circulate the civil and military yards all over the court. Lu Feng looked at the wives, concubines, daughters, and maids clearly, and happily gave them a score. The Jinyiwei masters under him even secretly touched each other and took a lot of advantages. The ministers who were forcibly invaded by him dared not speak out. Who told them that they were all a group of powerless ones?
Yingtian Mansion is still searching people all over the city, and the headquarters of the Jinyiwei where the public office in the city was burned into a broken kiln. Three or five hundred bodies dragged from somewhere were placed, and they were burned to pieces. Shui Yuanzi, who was responsible for setting fire, was happy. Originally, Lu Feng only ordered him to burn the Jinyiwei compound. On a whim, he blew the wind and sacrificial wind. As a result, most of the houses of the nearby Ministry of War, Ministry of Justice, and Ministry of Personnel were burned, and the loss was heavy.
During the morning court the next day, Zhu Di was furious and ordered the severance to be investigated and beaten to death, and he must capture the envoy behind him. But at this time, the Tenglong secret spy sent another secret report, saying that several capable civil officials under Zhu Xi were drugged and almost poisoned to death. Zhu Di, who was angry in the court, immediately calmed down his anger, his eyes rolled around, and he retreated without saying a word. Monk Daoyan and Lu Feng looked at each other, with evil smiles on their faces.
This kind of plan to make a slander is originally rough and no one is discerning in his eyes will believe that Zhu Li would do such a foolish way to do such a thing. However, Zhu Li did send people out, and Zhu Di also had relevant secret reports, so Zhu Di could not help but suspicion.
In the next few days, Lu Feng was so dizzy that he brought the Jinyiwei people to the east and west every day, and the beak and the south were shaking, causing trouble in Yingtian Mansion. One by one, the information about Zhu Yu colluding with all the military generals was placed on Zhu Di's desk, making Zhu Di's already active heart even more suspicious.
Within half a month, the "assassination" against Lu Feng happened three or five times in a row. Except for the second one, it was indeed the man sent by Zhu Li, who was completely wiped out by Lu Feng, the rest were all the desperate destiny in the world hired by Li Zhu in secret, and a good show performed by Lu Feng. The people of Yingtian Prefecture heard the screams of ghosts and wolves crying and howling at night. When the soldiers and gangsters who broke the camp killed those desperate destiny in the world, they would inevitably do something to harass the people, which made the entire Yingtian Prefecture uneasy.
After each assassination, Lu Feng would report a series of losses with a sad expression, which was getting bigger and bigger. And there must be no clues except for killing several assassins on the spot. In various situations, it is impossible to suspect that a powerful person was instructing the assassination against Lu Feng behind his back. The spies sent by Lu Feng were also intentionally or unintentionally induced the civil and military ministers: Apart from the generals of the current dynasty with many masters under his command, who could have such strong strength to make the Jinyiwei look dirty?
Three days later, urgent information came, and Zhu Xi and Zhu Yu were assassinated almost at the same time on the same day. Zhu Xi was injured in his arm and Zhu Yu was injured in his thigh.
Zhu Di finally became angry when he left, and two imperial edicts were sent out overnight, ordering Zhu Xi and Zhu Yu to visit Beijing at the same time.
This series of things seemed to be clueless, but after the processing of the wonderful tongue of Monk Taoyan, the meaning of it became extremely exciting. Monk Taoyan always left a little bit of the root of words, making people constantly guess the inside story, and causing people to imagine why so many troublesome things happened. Rumors spread everywhere, and civil and military ministers were panicked and didn't know what was going to happen.
Of course, there are ministers with clear minds. Although they don’t understand who directed these good shows, they still understand what the good shows are for. They have already made up their minds and decided their own position, thinking that they are outside the waters and are just waiting to see the good shows that come one after another.
Zhu Yu and Zhu Xi arrived in the capital almost with their feet on their feet. The next morning, they entered the palace to see Zhu Di. Zhu Di sat on the dragon throne with a heavy face and slowly said one word: "Xuan!" Suddenly, the little eunuch said one after another, conveying the will.
The civil and military ministers looked at Zhu Xi, and Zhu Yu was yelling and bowing down the stairs, each of whom was nervous, not sure what would happen. The military generals were all ulterior motives, but the civil officials were not open-minded. In short, I don’t know how strange the atmosphere in the entire hall was!
Looking at Zhu Xi and Zhu Li's two sons kneeling below, Zhu Di sighed and said slowly: "I have been busy with state affairs recently, but I forgot to preach to you well. I don't ask more questions, just ask you one thing. Xi'er, have you sent someone to your second brother's fiefdom? Zhu Er, have you sent to Peiping Prefecture and the capital?"
Zhu Xi and Zhu Yu knelt on the ground, lowered their heads and said nothing. Zhu Xi had already received Lu Feng's letter, knowing that he was just pretending to be confused, but Zhu Yu didn't dare to speak. He sent hundreds of dead soldiers into the capital, but he must not tell the truth.
Zhu Di sighed and shook his head, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't say it. Fortunately, you still know that you are brothers and have not killed you yet... Listen to you, all the civil and military officials will also remember me, I am the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I am still alive and not dead yet, you don't have to worry about my throne yet!" The powerful murderous aura was slowly released from Zhu Di's body, like an iron plate, filling the entire hall. However, this iron plate was slowly rotating, and everyone, except Lu Feng and Monk Daoyan, were suppressed and unable to breathe, and even breathing could not be carried out.
Unscrupulously showed his might as well as the emperor, and then Zhu Di said coldly: "Xi'er, you will not cause trouble, but you should not be resentful to your brothers. Zhu'er, your temper is tyrannical, and you must take care of yourself the most. Your subordinates are used to defend your country, not to deal with your brothers!"
Zhu Di heard Zhu Di's tone clearly protecting Zhu Xi, and he couldn't help but raise his head angrily and shouted: "Father, Erchen's subordinates, have also been assassinated! The eldest brother does not take the initiative to cause trouble. Could the people he is close to are all kind people? So, who cut the thigh of Erchen's thigh again?"
Lu Feng lowered his head and said nothing. He laughed in his heart: "Zhu Yu, Zhu Yu, the two princes sent killers to assassinate each other. This is a big scandal. The emperor asked you to come over and scold them, but he just didn't want the matter to get a big deal. You still insisted on pulling this smelly urine jar in front of the civil and military officials in the court, but weren't you asking for trouble for yourself?... Humph, your words are clearly accusing me of being a vicious person, but do anyone believe your accusation? I, Lu Feng, have been assassinated several times!"
Zhu Di changed color slightly and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up, you both leave me behind later, I will go to the harem to teach you a lesson... I'll call you here this time to think about it in the capital, understand the ideal, and then go back to your fiefdom. Humph, why are you still kneeling if you don't stand back to your seat?" The father and son said in private that it was just right. If you pull it out in front of the ministers, wouldn't you reveal your family's shame?
Monk Daoyan looked at Zhu Xi with a smile. Zhu Yu stood at the steps, raised his head and gave a wink. Suddenly, before Zhu Di spoke, Mr. Zhang of the Ministry of Revenue had already stepped out of his squad and said loudly: "Report to Your Majesty, I have a memorial... Recently, I found that General Wei Neng's younger brother, Qi An, was the armour of his troops, seemed to be inconsistent with the number assigned by the Ministry of Revenue!"
The generals who were in love with the young man were shocked, and at the same time, they glared at the minister Zhang. Zhu Zi even glanced at the minister Zhang with murderous intent, then immediately lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking. Monk Daoyan narrowed his eyes proudly, and the Buddhist beads in his hand kept turning: "Miscellaneous, you two princes are fighting each other, haha, I will mobilize the struggle between civil and military ministers. As you step by step, you can't help but hate each other!"
He looked at the generals and sneered in his heart: "You are of some use to win the battle one by one, but in this temple, my monk Taoyan can make you to pieces with just one word. Humph, are you following Zhu Li? There is no reason to get close to these old civil officials, but you have helped a lot."
Zhu Di looked at the Minister Zhang, glanced at the purple-swelled face of Feng An, and thought to himself: "Who can devote himself to the country, but how could his younger brother be a corrupt military pay? However, since Mr. Zhang said this, there may not be any hidden information... Well, you have to send someone to investigate clearly." He looked at the civil and military ministers in the palace, and suddenly his head hurts: "Who can the civil and military officials in the court not have selfish intentions? Either towards this or that, alas!"
Zhu Di gritted his teeth and issued an order: "Master Daoyan, please investigate this matter clearly. Don't let a bad one go, but you must not wrongly accuse a good one." In his mind, only monk Daoyan was the fair and fair person. If Lu Feng asked him to handle the case, who would know whether this is Zhu Xi or Zhu Yu? There must be some tricks.
Monk Daoyan stood up, bowed slightly, and sat down slowly with an unfathomable smile.
Zhu Di felt upset and shouted loudly: "Retreat if you have nothing to do." After that, his sleeves shook and he strode away. When he walked to the screen, he turned around and shouted: "Master Daoyan comes with me first, you two, come in too!"
Lu Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhu Di and his group of people entering, and exchanged a glance with the old eunuch Lu, and walked towards the door of the palace with a calm smile. He saw the shiver of the servant Zhang's body, and immediately took a few steps closer, and said in a man's voice: "What are you afraid of? If this matter is done, you will definitely benefit." Lu Feng smiled mysteriously: "Are you afraid of those generals causing trouble for you? But what is your teacher in the court? What are you afraid of?"
The Minister Zhang's eyes lit up, and he looked at Lu Feng with gratitude and fear, and walked out quickly.
Chapter completed!
