When Jin Yiwei went to pick up the old Taoist, the Taoist boys were very vigilant and asked questions. Fortunately, Lu Yi was well prepared and resisted them one by one.
But Xiaodong was still worried and insisted on going with the car. Lu Yi had no choice but to take her with him, thinking about how to deceive her along the way.
When Lao Dao was pulled into the Xiao Mansion, the news of Niu San's kidnapping finally reached Yan Song's ears.
This was not because the cabinet was ill-informed, but because after Yan Shifan broke his leg, Yan Song was so sad that he took leave to stay at home with his son.
Originally, Yan Shifan was one-eyed, but now he has two broken legs. It was really raining and the house was leaking and the wind was blowing against him. Yan Song shook his head in distress.
Although he also has a grandson, he is still young after all, and there is no guarantee that the child will be able to be raised these days. If something goes wrong, wouldn't the Yan family be extinct?
In the past, Yan Shifan spent a lot of time and alcohol, and was as lustful as his life. Although Yan Song couldn't stand it, he didn't care much about it. In fact, this was also the reason.
Yan Song himself had never taken a concubine. He only had one son, Yan Shifan, and he really expected Yan Shifan to flourish.
But now Yan Shifan looks like this. Although the main functional parts are still there, can he still cheer up?
This is not Yan Song's unfounded worry. Although he is not lewd, he is still a man after all and understands men very well.
In the past, Yan Shifan knew at least eighteen martial arts skills, but with his current physical condition, he may only be able to use one move and one pillar to reach the sky. Will this huge gap prevent him from even being able to use the last move?
Is it possible that in the end, I will have to be old enough to carry a gun, mount a horse, and charge into battle?
Even if I have this intention, I'm afraid I won't be able to find a suitable opponent. I don't like everyone...
Just when he thought about this, Yan Shifan suddenly reached out and grabbed his father's hand, and then reached out and grabbed the maid's hand, holding it tightly.
Yan Song was stunned. What do you mean? Donglou understands my thoughts. Does he want me to hold hands with his maid? This doesn't seem right. I haven't discussed it with my wife yet...
"Father, there are some things that I have to tell my father clearly..."
Yan Song's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't be so ruthless. Could his only son be suspicious?
"Father, this maid's name is Ke Jianchuan, and she is the niece of the chieftain of the Miao ethnic group. Ke Zifan, who came to the capital as an envoy this time, is the chieftain's youngest son, and is her cousin.
I had someone poison the Xiao Feng family. At that time, I was so angry that I wanted to kill his whole family to vent my anger. Unexpectedly, by mistake, Zhan Feiyun was forced to kidnap Niu San.
Niu San is indeed the godson of the chieftain and Miao Jiang's spy in the capital. One of the conditions for Miao Jiang's mission this time is to release Niu San.
Now that Zhan Feiyun has caused a big disaster, it is our chance to take down Xiao Feng. My father immediately asked His Majesty to take down Zhan Feiyun, but not to kill him.
Long live the request again to bring Xiao Feng back to negotiate with the Miao border mission. With Zhan Feiyun as a dead end, Xiao Feng will throw himself into disarray, and the situation will inevitably be in chaos.
Gradually, it is said that Ke Zifan is a genius in Miao territory, has a deep scheming mind, shares the same hatred as us, and will surely kill Xiao Feng! "
Yan Song was shocked when he looked at Ke Jianchuan, who was really mean. He never expected that she would be the niece of the chieftain of Miao territory.
This person is like a princess in Miao territory. How come she kneels in front of my son's legs every day?
But what surprised him even more was that Yan Shifan had such deep collusion with Miao Jiang. Although the Miao people are not as good as the White Lotus Sect or the Japanese pirates, their relationship with the imperial court is still very delicate. Although colluding with the Miao people is not treason, the crime is not light.
"Donglou, if that's the case, why not let Long Live kill Zhan Feiyun directly? Then the hatred between Xiao Feng and Miao Jiang will definitely be deeper. Wouldn't it be easier for him to lose his composure?"
"Father, you don't understand Xiao Feng. This person behaves differently from ordinary people. If Zhan Feiyun is alive, he will definitely find a way to preserve it; if Zhan Feiyun dies, he will not ruin his own affairs for a dead person."
Yan Song nodded silently and acknowledged his son's words. I am getting old, and there is a generation gap in thinking between me and young people. I cannot accept old age.
"One more thing. My father must convince Wan Zai to retain Xiao Feng as the governor of Jiangnan and not let him take the opportunity to step down."
"Why is this?"
"You must have a backup plan in everything. If you miss this attack, Xiao Feng will still be the governor of Jiangnan, and you will have to go back and continue to use the trick to turn rice into mulberry. To deal with Xiao Feng, you can't expect to complete all your efforts in one battle! "
Yan Song looked at his son in surprise, feeling that his son was smarter than before. Is it because he had two broken legs? What principle is this that allows smart IQ to occupy the high ground again?
Although he didn't understand the reason, Yan Song took action immediately and ran to Xiyuan to see Jiajing.
As soon as they entered the monastery, they saw Lu Bing kneeling in front of Jiajing. It seemed that Jiajing already knew about Niu San's kidnapping.
"You're in a dignified prison, and one person broke into it. You're becoming less and less attentive to your job."
Lu Bing lowered his head and said, "Zhan Feiyun is indeed very powerful in martial arts, and all the Jinyi guards went out to investigate the poisoning in Xiao Mansion. I was negligent and I am guilty."
Jiajing's tone was calm, and there was no hint of emotion or anger, but judging from the fact that he never let Lu Bing stand up, he was still a little angry.
"The Jin Yiwei first poisoned the Xiao Mansion, and then ordered people to rob the imperial prison. I was negligent, but I did not accuse you unjustly. After you go down, you will receive thirty imperial staffs and a year's salary as a warning to others."
Lu Bing kowtows to thank him. This punishment is indeed not harsh. Thirty imperial staffs, for ordinary civil servants, might blow their butts off, but for Lu Bing, it was nothing.
It wasn't because Lu Bing was highly skilled in martial arts and his buttocks were much firmer than those of civil servants, but because those who were in charge of spanking with the imperial cane in the palace were basically Jin Yiwei.
The person supervising the beating was either Huang Jin or one of Huang Jin's men, so the cane was just that. After the beating, he could lie down for at most two days before he could get up and go to work.
Yan Song sneered in his heart and stepped forward, panting, with a responsible attitude as if he had just learned of a big event and rushed there in a hurry.
"Long live this, my old minister heard the news and immediately asked for an interview. This matter is very serious. If it is not handled well, it may cause dissatisfaction among the Miao people and cause chaos."
Jiajing was silent, of course he had expected this result, but he didn't understand in his heart why Miao Jiang would attack Xiao Mansion for no reason at this juncture.
Lu Bing saw Jiajing's thoughts and said softly: "Long live, according to the secret report from Jin Yiwei's hidden stake, during this period of time, people from all walks of life have entered Miao territory through various channels, including people from the White Lotus Sect.
In addition, there was also a Tatar envoy, presumably sent by Ada Khan. Also, the living Buddha of Uzang also sent the Iron Staff Lama into the Miao territory. "
Uzang is Tibet. It was similar to Miao territory during the Jiajing period. It was nominally under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, but in fact it was already difficult to control. It should be said or not, this is indeed Jiajing's responsibility.
Before the Jiajing period, there were still frequent contacts between the imperial court and Uzang. At that time, it was completely different from the Miao border, and the imperial court still listened to what it said.
But after Jiajing came to power, because he advocated Taoism and suppressed Buddhism, he had a lot of trouble with the living Buddhas and lamas in Uzang. It is said that he even drove away the lamas in the capital. Anyway, regardless of the monks and lamas, they were all Buddhists and they were all suppressed.
Later, the rise of Anda Khan made Jiajing unable to take care of itself. Therefore, when Anda Khan marched through the Hetao area towards Qinghai and Uszang, Jiajing did not send troops to fight.
After Anda Khan broke into Uzang, he turned out to be a Buddhist. Of course, the religious beliefs of the Mongolian people, except for the original and unified Changshengtian, such as Buddhism, Taoism and other religions, have always been changing and very unstable.
Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that Anda Khan’s belief in Buddhism was a political means. Anyway, no matter how you say it, Anda Khan beat up the people in the Tibetan area, and then changed his smile and announced that I also believe in Buddhism and that we are a family.
This method of giving a sweet date with a slap has been very effective in history, so Anda Khan gained actual control of the Tibetan area.
From then on, although Uzang belonged to the Ming Dynasty in name, in fact the influence of the imperial court was very limited, and it became one of the inner territories like the Miao territory.
There is a little bit of trivia, that is, the title of Dalai Lama was given to Sonam Gyatso, the living Buddha at the time by the Anta Khan Gang.
Some say that Anda Khan directly conferred the title on Sonam Gyatso, and then asked the court to issue the certificate through Zhang Juzheng.
This behavior of getting on the bus first and then paying for the ticket also fully illustrates that the relationship between Anda Khan and the Ming Dynasty was not only about fighting and killing, but also about worldly relations.
So Sonam Gyatso was the first living Buddha to be awarded the title of Dalai Lama, but he was also the third Dalai Lama. Why is it the third life? Because Sonam Gyatso and Jiajing have the same wish.
Jiajing's wish is that if I become the emperor, my father must become the emperor, regardless of whether he has actually become the emperor or not, he must become the emperor!
So Jiajing launched a grand ceremonial meeting and even beat the butts of many civil servants and gave his father the title of emperor!
Sonam Gyatso's wish is that if I become the Dalai Lama Living Buddha, I must become the Dalai Lama Living Buddha in my previous life. Regardless of whether he was a Dalai Lama or not when he was alive, he must be one!
And the resistance of Sonam Gyatso was much smaller than that of Jiajing. Because according to the canonization system of Living Buddhas, I am reincarnated, and that person in my previous life was also me!
So I am the Dalai Lama Living Buddha in this life, and of course I was the same in my previous life. There is no logical flaw at all, and I am much more righteous than Jiajing.
So Sonam Gyatso posthumously recognized Gendun Drupa as the first Dalai Lama in two lifetimes, Gendun Gyatso as the second Dalai Lama, and he humbly became the third generation Dalai Lama.
Seeing this, many people will probably sigh with emotion. Ananda Khan is really good to the people in Tibetan areas. Not only does he believe in Buddhism, but he also helps the living Buddha to get the title! Famous for eternity!
These emotional friends, Tutu Tucson Po, if you knew a coincidence that was about to happen, or a miracle, you wouldn't be so emotional.
After Sonam Gyatso passed away, guess where he reincarnated? That’s right, Sonam Gyatso’s reincarnated soul boy is actually Amada Khan’s great-grandson Yunden Gyatso!
So if you have experienced carrot recruitment in some public institutions, or mutual recruitment between two public institutions, you will probably understand why Andahan works so hard.
I would like to solemnly declare that I have no ill will towards any religion, nor do I have any disrespect for the beliefs of my compatriots in Tibetan areas. It’s just this amazing coincidence in history that really makes me deeply moved.
Of course, at this time, Amada Khan and the Tibetan area had not yet reached such a close level of interest, but the relationship was definitely much better than that of the imperial court. Therefore, both sides sent envoys into Miao territory at the same time, which was a very sensitive matter.
Jiajing frowned, a little uneasy. If the White Lotus Sect can be used as a glue to really stick Mongolia, Uszang, and Miao Territory together to fight against the Ming Dynasty, that would really be a big deal!
And if this matter was led by the White Lotus Sect, then there would be no doubt that they would attack the Xiao Mansion.
The White Lotus Sect hates Xiao Feng to the core. Since they can't beat him on a frontal battlefield, it's only natural to stab him in the back.
Therefore, Jiajing's anger towards Feiyun decreased slightly. Just when he was thinking about how to deal with the current situation, Yan Song stepped forward to offer advice.
"Long live the matter, the matter is serious and the court cannot act on impulse. At this time, it is said that Miao Jiang poisoned the Xiao Mansion. Although there is inference, there is no actual evidence.
The veteran thought that he should immediately issue an order to arrest Zhan Feiyun, rescue Niu San, and express goodwill to Miao territory. At the same time, Xiao Feng was urgently called back to negotiate with the Miao mission! "
Um? Jiajing opened his eyes. He agreed with the first half, but why did he call Xiao Feng back to negotiate? Do you think it wouldn’t be lively without fighting?
Yan Song knew that Jiajing would have questions and was prepared: "Long live, there are three reasons for calling Xiao Feng back to deal with this matter.
First, if Miao Jiang really colludes with the White Lotus Sect, then Xiao Feng, as the governor of Jiangnan, will bear his own responsibility for dealing with the White Lotus Sect and its members.
What's more, Xiao Feng has been entangled with the White Lotus Sect for a long time, and is very familiar with the White Lotus Sect's behavior, which can also allow him to judge whether Miao Jiang has colluded with the White Lotus Sect and determine the court's response strategy.
Between the two, if Miao Jiang and the White Lotus Sect have just come into contact and have not formed an alliance, then the court needs a capable minister to persuade them. Currently, there are not many people in the court who have this ability.
If Xiao'er was still alive, he could also take up this post. However, Xiao'er was assassinated recently and was seriously injured. He was unable to serve the country, so Xiao Feng was the best candidate.
Third, Hu Zongxian and Xiao Feng had a close relationship, and Miao Jiang also knew something about it. Among the memorials presented to the Miao mission, there was a request for the imperial court to severely punish Hu Zongxian, and Xiao Feng also needed to make a statement.
What's more, there was a poisoning incident in the Xiao Mansion. Xiao Feng got the news and was eager to return home, making it difficult for him to do things calmly outside. Long live calling him back to Beijing is also a sign of grace and love. "
Lu Bing, who was kneeling on the ground, and Huang Jin, who was playing with the incense burner, looked at each other and secretly sighed that this old guy Yan Song is really getting better as he gets older.
It was obviously a fire pit, but no one could say that it was unreasonable. Even though he knew it was a fire pit, he could only watch Xiao Feng jump into it.
Moreover, he praised Xiao Feng the whole time and was extremely sincere. This is really admirable!
Jiajing nodded: "Ai Qing's words make sense. Then who should take over Xiao Feng's position as governor of Jiangnan?"
Yan Song smiled and said: "Long live, Xiao Feng does not need to step down as the governor of Jiangnan. Xiao Feng went to the coast of Jiangnan, the strength of the Japanese pirates was damaged, and Yu Dayou was on the coast again, so he could not make waves in a short time.
What's more, Xiao Feng's transformation from rice to mulberry has already begun. Now, when someone suddenly changes, the local people don't know how to handle it next.
This is just a temporary matter. The appointment and dismissal of Jiangnan Governor is a major matter, so we should keep it for now. If it is really necessary to change the person, we can discuss it later. "
Jiajing nodded: "Ai Qing is very thoughtful, so let's do it this way. The cabinet issued a document asking Xiao Feng to return to Beijing immediately.
Lu Bing, you are responsible for arresting Zhan Feiyun and putting him in jail pending trial! If Niu San died... Zhan Feiyun would kill him on the spot without asking for an order. "
Yan Song was shocked: "Long live, although Zhan Feiyun is guilty of resisting the death penalty, but after all, he is to protect the Xiao Mansion. Should we wait for Xiao Feng to come back and make a long-term plan?"
Jiajing glanced at Yan Song and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Ai Qing is indeed a prime minister and has a very good demeanor as a cabinet minister.
But if Niu San doesn't die, Zhan Feiyun's crime can still be considered; if Niu San dies, Zhan Feiyun will definitely die, and Xiao Feng's return will be harmful rather than beneficial. "
Yan Song looked at Jiajing's eyes, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back. He suddenly realized that he had been a little drifting recently.
Jiajing pretended to be deaf and mute during this period and did nothing, which made him numb and careless, thinking that Jiajing was not as smart as before, but now Jiajing gave him a hint.
There are some things, it's not that I don't understand, it's that I don't want to take care of them. As for why I don't want to take care of it, you can guess some of it, and I'm afraid you won't be able to figure out some of it in your lifetime.
Yan Song walked out of the monastery, wiped the cold sweat from his face, and hurried back to the cabinet to issue the decree. Because Lu Bing was ordered to arrest someone, he wrote the spanking in his account first and left in a hurry.
There was silence in the monastery, and after a long time, Jiajing spoke.
"Huang Ban, Yan Shifan's leg was broken, and Xiao Feng's family was poisoned. Who do you think made the move first?"
Huang Jin paused while fiddling with the incense ashes, and then smiled for a long time: "In my humble opinion, Xiao Feng never fights without confidence.
Since he is not in the capital, his family should be on the defensive and not easily provoke the Yan family. "
Jiajing nodded: "Yan Shifan's relationships were very complicated, he was lustful and cruel, and he was very different from his father. This time the leg was broken, it is hard to guarantee that he was not too cruel and suffered a backlash."
Huang Jin nodded, thinking that you know this better than anyone else. The rabbit bites when it's anxious. You were almost strangled back then. Yan Shifan's broken legs are nothing, it's just a small scene.
At this time, Lu Bing rushed to Xiao Mansion. Everyone hurriedly made way for a passage and looked at him awkwardly, as if there was something embarrassing happening inside.
Lu Bing walked in and saw Lu Yi standing at the door of a small house, holding his head in his hands, being kicked and beaten wildly by Xiaodong. His shirt had been torn to pieces, and there were dirt and footprints all over his body. He just refused to let Xiaodong enter the house. .
Lu Bing frowned: "What's going on? Where are the others?"
While being beaten, Lu Yi said: "Everyone is in the house except Liu Xue'er. I asked Liu Tong, his wife and Xiaomei to control Liu Xue'er in the backyard. Everyone else is lying in the house."
Lu Bing was puzzled: "Why is this? Also, why are these doors and windows covered with quilts?"
Lu Yi explained: "Everyone wants to try to see if they can attract the inner poison to themselves. I have tried to persuade them, but they are determined and they are all willing. There is nothing I can do."
Suddenly, a pig-like howling sound came from the room: "Fart, I didn't do it voluntarily, let me out!"
Some people died, but not completely...
