Chapter 3 The Last Law

It was already midnight when we left the military camp. Xu You, Qingming, He Ru, Lu Bozhi, and Wang Shibi returned to Mingyu Mountain in the silver moonlight. The rows of buildings were hidden among the looming peaks. The pine rhymes and bamboo waves on the mountain were like the stunning song played by Concubine Song's wonderful hands, playing a light rhythm for the footsteps of the returnees.

Zhan Wenjun and the Winter Solstice were still waiting in the secret room on the mountainside. The cold air of early spring came to their faces, and the fire lit in the corner was shining with bright light, which added a bit of the fireworks that belonged to the home.

Xu You has entered the fourth grade and can hardly feel the cold and heat brought by the change of seasons, but he subconsciously rubbed his hands, stood by the fire and greeted everyone to sit down at will, then turned to look at the Winter Solstice and asked, "Is there any news coming back? According to Xiao Yaoer, a rebellion occurred in Jinling City. What is the truth?"

"Before Xiaolang came back, I had just received the message from Jinling. After this period of addition and sorting, I basically figured out the general situation. A month ago, a sudden rebellion broke out in Jinling. The main participants were the younger brother of the Queen Wang, Wang Gao, the founding county prince Wang, the queen's nephew, Wang Ping, the commander of the Fengche Du, Wei Pu, the captain of the inner palace Huangmen, Wei Pu, the commander of Changshui, and the servants of the envoy, He Kang, Xie, Cao, Fan, and Zhang, and other seven middle-class gentry, as well as the merchant Fei Chengchang, the monk Zhu Fashen, as well as more than a dozen lords and two thousand soldiers in the central army. That night, the emperor stayed in Taiji Hall, and was tied by his confidant Huangmen Huayuan and two palace maids, and almost suffocated to death. If it weren't for the timely appearance of Yu Dao, the rebellion would have been almost successful. Then, Wang Gao and Wang Ping took advantage of the identity of the foreign relatives and the fake concubine He Kang opened the palace gate.

He led his troops into Taicheng. At the same time, Xie, Cao, Fan, Zhang and other gentry tribes set fires everywhere in the city to create chaos and hinder the central army's rescue. The merchant Fei Chengchang provided nearly ten million yuan to reward and encourage military soldiers to participate in the rebellion. After the rebellion, Xiao Xunqi and Shen Muzhi joined forces to completely quell the rebellion in just one day and one night. Except for the Wang family's children, the rest were killed. An Xiuming almost died by the hands of eunuchs and palace maids. You can imagine how angry she would be. She used thousands of heads of the treacherous figures to build a nine-story high landscape on the Zhuque Avenue to shock court officials and people. At the same time, Jinling implemented the most severe curfew in history. Violators could be killed in the street market without the review of the imperial Cao. The central army was also stationed by the Sili Mansion and began to screen and rectify. Many generals with outstanding military achievements were killed by mistake..."

Xu You sighed slightly, and looked at the vague fire, his thoughts returned to the conversation he had with Zhu Zhi in the Jiangzhou Governor's Mansion several months ago. Zhu Zhi promised to leave him enough time to train troops and join forces, but he did not expect that the measures he had taken would be so fierce and decisive. He assassinated the deep palace and plotted chaos in the army. Even the queen's family became pawns. With the seven surnames such as Xie, Cao, Fan, and Zhang, An Xiuming was frightened and uneasy. Jinling, who thought he was stable, was once again in a panic. If it were the effect of delay, it would be better.

So far, Zhu Zhi's move has never disappointed Xu You once!

It's a pity that thousands of lives...

Perhaps they also knew that they would die, so they could seek benevolence and benevolence, and die for the right way of the family and country, without regrets. The Chu State was established for a hundred years and the country was prosperous. Although there were rebellious sons like An Xiuming, there were so many loyal and loyal people? In the future, they would seize Jinling, and these people who died should erect monuments and pass on their reputations for all ages!

Lu Bo said: "Businessman Fei Chengchang? Who is it?" Wang Song and others are not uncommon to plot against each other, but the merchants mixed with many foreign relatives and gentry generals sounded very unusual.

"Fei Chengchang, the eldest son of the Fei family of Licheng, gradually faded out, and all the business in the family was left to him. From Yizhou to Jinling, Fei's hand held the most profitable way in the silk cloth industry. This way that made many people jealous but helpless was the grace given to Fei by the King of Nanyang An Xiushu, and it was the foundation and confidence that Fei served An Xiushu."

Later scholar Tang Changru once divided ancient merchants into three levels. The first level was the central government's kindness, the second level was the favor of local kings, princes and generals, and the third level was the small merchant vendors and scoundrels.

Guo Mian is the second-class, and Fei Chengchang is also the second-class!

An Xiushuo was not only the King of Nanyang, but also the son-in-law of the Shangshu Ling Yu Ting, and also the candidate for the reserve crown prince who once vigorously recommended to compete with the prince for the throne. If it is in the hearts of An Zidao and the nobles in the capital, it is far superior to An Xiushuo, the King of Jiangxia.

So, in a sense, Fei Chengchang is stronger than Guo Mian!

Of course, this is just in a sense. Guo Mianxing Shang is just covering up his identity, and his real strength is the Quanjing and Chuan Pavilion that have developed and grown in secret.

This is far incomparable to Fei Chengchang!

Wang Shibi pondered and said, "This matter is very strange! These people seem to have no connection, but they involve the inner government, foreign relatives, gentry, central army and city, and almost all levels of Jinling are involved. Conspiring for major events and intentions to cause chaos can even hide it from the eyes and ears of the Sili Mansion. Is it the method of ordinary people? Furthermore, anyone with discerning eyes knows that An Xiuming has basically stabilized the situation in Jinling. Unless he has defeated it with strong troops from the outside, it is impossible to succeed just by engaging in wind and rain from the inside, at most it will cause some trouble for An Xiuming. I think the person behind the planners are wise and wise, so how could he foolishly choose to commit rebellion at this time?"

Xu You smiled and said, "You are new to you and are not very familiar with some things. Qiyi, please tell me."

Although He Ru is rebellious, he has never been tempted to exclude people who are truly capable. Lu Bozhi is still a good idea, but Wang Shibi is an ordinary man. Xu You will have great use to him in the future. He Ru knows it well, and his attitude is not kind, but he is not mean. He said: "This is the big plan of Zhuge Zhu Zhi. The purpose is to disrupt An Xiuming's pace and let him fall into Jinling and have no time to take care of others, so as to create opportunities for the King of Jiangxia who is far away in Jingzhou to prepare for war, and also to give us plenty of time to train troops in Yangzhou."

Wang Shibi was able to see through at a glance and suddenly said, "So that's it! This trick is amazing, especially when Wang Gao and Wang Ping were pulled into the water. If An Xiuming wanted to investigate, the queen's position was unstable. This is the foundation of the country. Once it shakes, it will be difficult for Jinling to calm down..."

"It's already shaken!"

When the Dongsha asked for instructions with his eyes, Xu You nodded, and she said in a slightly depressed voice: "Xiao Xun wanted to seek a position of subordinate for the Xiao family, and he won over Liu family as a supporter. He should have paid a considerable price. But the husbands also knew that because he was in charge of the Sili Mansion, Xiao's reputation among the four top clans has never been very good. If the position of subordinate fell into the hands of Xiao, he would probably not be satisfied with the Yu family and Yuan family."

Lu Bozhi smiled and said, "The Yuan family is not satisfied, so it is not worth worrying. After all, the Yuan family is in peace with Jinling, advocates purity and emptiness, and is indifferent to the world. However, the Yu family is one of the most important factions in Jinling City. Shangshu Ling Yu Shi didn't even want to face him and committed to rebellion. How could he sit down and watch the Xiao and Liu control the country's foundation and go up?"

"Yu Shi is unable to protect himself!" He Ru narrowed his eyes and said, "Fei Chengchang was not voluntarily involved in this rebellion. If Zhu Zhi had not sent troops to capture the whole family of the Fei family in Licheng and forced Fei Chengchang to die, he was in his prime and had no shortage of money and power. How could he choose this dead end?"

Wang Shibi couldn't help but praise: "Zhu Zhi is really worthy of being the little Zhuge! Fei Chengchang's merchant is also the direct descendant of the King of Nanyang. In this way, An Xiushuo was also pulled into the quagmire. It depends on how much brotherly An Xiuming is still caring about..."

Zhan Wenjun said lightly: "An Xiuming even killed his biological father, let alone An Xiushu, a half-brother who is not very much in love? Don't forget that An Xiuming's position as the prince was shaky at the time, and Yu Ting strongly recommended An Xiushu to take over as the prince. If it weren't for the Jinling Incident, An Xiushu would not have lived now in order to win people's hearts!"

Lu Bozhi was not good at power and was shocked when he heard this and said, "Zhu Zhi did this on purpose, just to let An Xiuming kill An Xiushu?"

The Winter Solstice was amazed and said, "The little Zhuge's plan has always been linked together. If only Chengchang was spent, An Xiushuo might not die. Yu Shi could also ask Xiao and Liu to join forces. With the power of the three surnames, An Xiuming was afraid that he would have no choice. But Wang Gao and Wang Ping were provoked and rebelled, which implicated the descendants, causing Xiao Xunqi to have an idea about the descendants. In this way, the Yu family would never allow the daughter of Xiao to enter the palace, so there would be no way for the three surnames to join forces, and he would not be able to protect the King of Nanyang."

He Ru sneered: "So An Xiushu will die! Kill his father first and then kill his brother. An Xiuming's reputation of cruelty and incompetence is confirmed. He can't even wash away the water of the Yangtze River. Zhu Zhi, it's so powerful!"

Xu You held the fire with both hands, listening to everyone's discussion and discussion without making any sound. Zhu Zhi's plan is majestic, but it is vicious and ruthless. If necessary, you can give up anyone, treat human life as grass, and treat all living beings as chess pieces. If it becomes an enemy in the future, how should we deal with it?

Wang Shibi's mung bean-like eyes flashed with a shiny light, and he smiled and said, "I think An Xiuming is not even at ease now?"

Jinling, Xianyang Palace.

An Xiuming is not just a restless sleep. He now looked at the palace maids and eunuchs around him, as if he was rebellious. Therefore, he ordered that after falling asleep, he would not be allowed to stay within seven feet of the imperial bed. He was called alone and widowed, and no one was trustworthy. He would not even see the queen again. Although An Xiuyuan, the King of Hengyang, could enter the palace at night, when he met, there were many guards in the palace, with swords and axes in his hands and stared at him, the posture made the King of Hengyang secretly frightened. From then on, even if he was in a hurry, he would never enter the palace at night.

The only exception is the divine master Yu Daozhen, An Xiuming created a new Yuan Miao Temple in Taicheng for her. She could go straight to the bedroom without having to report it. The palace people privately discussed that they had long regarded Yu Daozhen as the lord of the harem. Even if the Queen Wang did not have the burden of Wang Gao and Wang Ping this time, she had lost her favor and had nothing to do.

"Can the King of Nanyang confess his guilt in prison?" Ye An Xiuming was furious. The palace maids who were serving were beheaded. The others were like frightened birds, fearing that the next one would be his turn.

Yu Daozhen gently kneaded An Xiuming's shoulders, and his charming face showed a bit of cold chill, saying, "How could he confess? But the letters found from the royal palace are ironclad evidence, indicating that he has indeed contacted the group of traitors, which is enough!"

"Rebel, rebel!" An Xiuming kicked the case over, and was furious and said, "What do you think I will do to him? When I was competing with me for the position of prince, I did not blame him, rewarded him, valued him, and gave him everything, but I didn't know my kindness. Is this how he repaying me?"

"The bee is poisonous, and the jackals are backfired. The master's kindness cannot withstand the bewitching of Fei Chengchang every day. Now that the King of Nanyang has revealed his traces of being defeated by the emperor, the backlash has been restored. Forgive him to live, he will only keep disasters."

An Xiuming's face was gloomy, and it took him a while to arrive: "It's not easy to kill him..."

"The Lord is worried that Yu Shi will object?" Yu Daozhen's jade hand quietly penetrated into the depths of the dragon robe and laughed: "Xiao Xunqi wants his missing daughter to be the queen. Yu Shi was so anxious that he was about to jump off his feet. The Lord could agree to Yu Shi and kill An Xiushuo and prevent Xiao's girl from entering the palace. But to Xiao Xunqi, he said that because Yu Shi refused, it was difficult to marry Xiao..."

An Xiuming closed his eyes, raised his head, showing a comfortable look, and soon let out a low roar, accompanied by a murderous will, saying, "Come on, I will give the King of Nanyang no wine."

The poisonous wine given by the imperial palace was named Wumeng, which had a black humorous smell. The guards came out and Yu Daozhen hugged An Xiuming's neck, sat on his legs, twisted his fingers at the end of his hair, and said, "The King of Nanyang is not worth worrying about, but the one who can be worried is those bald donkeys who are immortal!"

"Um?"

"Zhu Fashen and his dozens of disciples seemed to be in a bad state, but there were more than hundreds of thousands of monks in the twenty-two states in the world? After Zhu Daorong died, other monks did not obey the Lord. They secretly conspired to rebel sooner or later to cause trouble."

An Xiuming and Zhu Daorong fought for many years and hated monks. Otherwise, they would not have slaughtered Benwu Temple on the night of the Jinling Incident. Since then, the Buddhist sects have lived in seclusion, never interfering in political affairs, nor preaching the Dharma, and pretending to be pitiful as if they were surrendering. Unexpectedly, they were still trying to rebel behind their backs.

court death!

An Xiuming grabbed Yu Daozhen's jade hand, put it on his lips and sniffed it gently, and said, "How do you think the divine master should deal with Buddhism?"

"How did the Lord deal with those treasons who rebelled?"

"Destroy all his door!"

"Buddhist is also possible!"

An Xiuming was shocked and looked up at Yu Daozhen. Seeing that her face was indifferent, she didn't seem to be joking, with a serious eyebrows, she said, "What do you mean?"

"The Lord, the Buddha came from the West, and was originally a Hu religion. He was based on evil laws to establish his foothold in the upper country. He did not know how to be grateful and benefited. Instead, he built a large-scale construction, sealed mountains and occupied waters, and monks did not work hard, and took the people's wealth and wealth to get rich. He gathered copper and silk in the world to cast gold, and did not lose in the government, and did not enter the public warehouse to raise rice. The family stayed in the big and small, and even bewitched the saints, played with power, and wanted to abolish and establish the people. I heard that all the temples were hidden in the temples. There were many martial artists, and the world was peaceful. What was the intention? Now if the Lord destroyed it, the party who skipped classes would be happy to lose rent; the Cao who avoided the military service would always serve. Then seek soldiers among the monks and take land under the pagodas and temples. This is a strategy to strengthen the country and enrich the people. The Lord used it, and could be a wise monarch for the ages!"

The real sound of the fish Tao is like the sound of the fairy music, which makes people listen involuntarily and obey. She whispered and tempted, saying, "The world is rich, and there are eight temples. Moreover, Bai Changjue has also obtained the consent of Master Sun. Master Tiandao will strive to achieve the Lord's wish."

New and old hatreds surged into my heart, An Xiuming's eyes showed a fierce light, and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, summon Chen Yue to the palace and write an edict. I want to destroy the Buddha!"
