Chapter 490

Everyone has their own solutions

The news that Tang Feng came to Shaoxing this time was soon spread in the local area. Not to mention Shaoxing Prefecture City, many people even knew about the counties under his jurisdiction. Not long afterwards, news came out that the Tongzhi of the Jinyiwei of the imperial court eliminated the internal troubles of the eunuch party. Tang Feng, who was valued by the current emperor Chongzhen, would bring people to sacrifice to his ancestors on April 22nd.

The news quickly spread throughout Shaoxing City, so the Bailian Sect who rushed over quickly did not need to go to find out where to go. In an inconspicuous small house in Kuaiji County, when they learned the news, these people began to look excited and wanted to start this day. But soon, their excitement was poured on a basin of cold water by someone: "Don't you think there is any problem with this?" Elder Ge looked at the people in front of him and said with a serious expression: "You must know that after the incident in She County, Tang Feng already knew that our Holy Sect's people would be unfavorable to him, and the Jinyiwei in Zhejiang also moved. I was still here when I was being monitored by them. Will they let us know all this without any scruples?"

"Elder Ge means there is a fraud?" Tiezi, who was burly and seemed to look at the somewhat reckless, also heard what Ge Ming said, and asked carefully.

"This is very likely a trap set by the Tang Dynasty for us. The people of our Holy Sect have been trapped in his hands not once or twice. He always uses conspiracy. Do you remember how the eldest young master was captured in Beijing? It was because he used his body as bait and he was eager to make contributions. We cannot repeat the same mistakes." Elder Ge narrowed his eyes and said.

After hearing what he said, everyone around him showed deep thoughts and vigilance. Thinking carefully, it was indeed such a thing. Tang Feng was definitely not easy to mess with. Now he knew the intentions of his and others. How could he still spread his actions so much? But someone still put forward a different view: "What Elder Ge said makes sense, but I think what he said about worshiping his ancestors this time is indeed true. That is a big event of sacrifice. Since it has been publicized.

Yu Zhonglu, as an official of the court, had no chance of changing his words. Although he would definitely arrange a trap to wait for us to go, it was also a good opportunity for us. In the wild, whether it was advance or retreat, it was always beneficial for us. Moreover, if we missed this opportunity, it would be even more difficult for us to complete the assassination of him. If we lost half of the man, we would get nothing. Elder, I am afraid that it would be difficult for us to explain to the leader and others after we went back."

Elder Ge looked at the others and found that these people were indeed moved by his words. He frowned and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, but we can't send it to you even though we know they have traps and are prepared, right? This matter must be discussed for a long time and a safe way."

"Elder, I have an idea!" The man dressed in a businessman that day suddenly opened his mouth. He was the leader of the White Lotus Sect near Shaoxing Prefecture, and he had some prestige in this matter. After hearing what he said, Elder Ge looked at him: "Let's talk about it, let's join us together. If we can really accomplish anything, then you will be the first master!"

"I dare not take the first contribution. As long as I can eliminate this confidant trouble for the Holy Church, Qi Feifan will be satisfied. I have already found out that Tang Feng's ancestral tombs are all on a hill less than two or three miles away from Shanyin County. Although they can lay down people, they may not necessarily think that we would ambush the people there early. So what I mean is that before April 22, the most powerful assassin among us will be arranged there."

Elder Ge only thought he had a good idea, but it turned out that he was ambushing in advance, and smiled bitterly: "This is not a good idea. Although I don't know the situation on the hill, the people around Tang Feng will be careful when the time comes. Even if our people are really there, it may be difficult for us to get close to him."

"Elder Ge, don't be anxious, listen to me first!" Qi Feifan said again: "We want to kill him. Of course, the ambushing people are the ones who attacked, but they are not them, but the remaining people. The rest of us can disguise themselves as ordinary people and hide among some local people. I think there are definitely not a few people who went to watch the ceremony that day. Once the time comes, they can first attract the attention of the imperial minions. When they are only paying attention to the mountain, the people above will launch a sudden attack. I think even Tang Feng may not have expected that we have this trick."

Elder Ge nodded slightly after hearing this: "You can try your opinion. But one thing is very important. Where should we hide the people who go up the mountain first so that we won't be noticed by others. You must know that Tang Feng is very cautious. Maybe someone will search the hill before he goes up. Wouldn't they notice it?"

"I have a place that Tang Feng never imagined and would not send someone to investigate!" Qi Feifan said with a gloomy face. The most important thing about his plan was this hiding place.

"Where is that?" Several impatient people asked without waiting for Elder Ge to ask.

Qi Feifan talked about a place, and everyone's expressions became a little weird, but they had to admit that this was indeed a good place to hide, but it was a little unbearable. However, for the great cause of the Holy Church, these people were not afraid of death, let alone doing so, so everyone recognized his idea.

After calculating the time from the famous local Feng Shui masters, Tang Feng began to prepare various things to worship his ancestors. Now his status is not low, and it is the first time he has returned home in luxury. Of course, he can't be careless, so all the items must be the best and he is not afraid of spending money at all. However, with the help of the local government, Tang Feng actually didn't spend much silver. Who dared to earn the money from Lord Tang, who welcomed such great glory for the people of Shaoxing Mansion?

While busy preparing for all this, Tang Feng was also secretly setting up defense and rounding up methods. He knew that as soon as the news of the sacrifice on April 22nd this time came out, unless the White Lotus Sect had given up the assassination of himself, there would be a reason to give it a try.

In fact, many people have been discovered under his arrangement and the secret search of his subordinate Jinyiwei. However, in order to capture all these White Lotus thieves, Tang Feng did not order to take people, but decided to take a long line to catch big fish. However, the actions of these exposed people did not escape Tang Feng's eyes and ears.

It was already the night of April 20th. Tang Feng heard Tan Shujie's report to the movements of the people in the White Lotus Sect that he is now in control: "Sir, everything they are doing now is nothing unusual. It seems that we have been targeted by us. They didn't see them deliberately coming to Shanyin. Sir, do you think they would see that this sacrifice is a trap, so they dare not take any action?"

"No," Tang Feng shook his head firmly: "I think even if they know that there is a trap, they will probably not give up the easiest opportunity to attack me. You must know that now I am surrounded by guards and Jinyiwei, and it is already very difficult for him to attack me. Only when I go to worship my ancestors the day after tomorrow will they have a gap. Judging from their urgent hope of killing me, and the hatred of having done good things by me several times, and losing troops and generals in my hands, they will definitely jump down and fight to the top even though they know there is a fraud.

"However, now that both sides know the other party's existence and willingness, they will definitely be extremely careful in their actions and come up with a meticulous plan, so we must not take it lightly."

"Don't worry, sir, I have already sent the order. The elites of my Zhejiang Jinyiwei will be around you. There are also effective guards around you, and several prefects, and the soldiers in the yamen brought by the magistrate, even if there are many traitors, they will never succeed. As long as they come, they will be fish and turtles in the net and meat on the table, and they will not escape the end of being arrested." Tan Shujie said a little uneasy, "But sir, what if they really dare not show up when they see our situation?"

"If they really don't want to take this hook, we have to do it ourselves. Although we may not be able to catch them all in one place, there are no less than fifty people in our hands. It is feasible to take them down first and then ask about the whereabouts of others from their mouths. Therefore, the people who are laid around those people must not move, otherwise they will really gain nothing." Tang Feng said after thinking for a while.

"Yes, I have recorded it."

While Tang Feng was making careful arrangements, the White Lotus Sect also moved. Late at night on February 21, because the clouds were very thick, the half-string moon disappeared, and only the hazy starlight flashed weakly in the dark sky. At this time, in Shanyin County, several figures appeared under the hillside where the Tang family’s ancestral tomb was buried. If any villagers who went out saw them at this time, they would probably regard them as lonely ghosts and be scared to death.

But how could there be villagers coming out at this time? These black shadows quietly climbed the hills and quickly found the target they were looking for. Several people quickly took out shovels and dug them up. The crackling sounds in the night wind were very cunning.
