There may be more than a dozen people in the clan who want to rebel, but the only ones who really dare to rebel are King Yi's family.
Although the dozen or so clans were also instigated by the White Lotus Sect and were ready to take action, they were still waiting and watching without taking any actual action.
For example, the King of Grain, who was young and strong, already had two sons and two daughters.
After returning to the mansion this time, King Gu looked at his harem and became worried.
He has one main concubine, five side concubines, and three female officials who are married to each other, but they are not accepted as concubines.
It stands to reason that after a trip to the capital, I was so exhausted that I would have to eat a lot when I came back, but the concubines found that King Gu had a poor appetite.
Especially at the last minute, it always seems like there is some mental burden. Once a man is burdened with his thoughts, he will easily become depressed.
The concubines were very surprised, thinking that King Gu had eaten too much in Beijing and was no longer interested in home-cooked food when he came back. They all looked sad and very dissatisfied.
The king of Gu was so miserable that he could only secretly send people out to buy medicine that could prevent women from getting pregnant. However, this kind of medicine was both effective and harmless to the body, so it was difficult to buy.
Many people think this is nonsense. Isn’t there a solution in the palace?
It is said that there is a herbal medicine in the palace and if it is given to a woman to drink, no matter how hard the emperor tries, there will be no results.
It is said that there are some eunuchs and maids in the palace who are very skilled in massaging. After the massage, they can massage the acupuncture points so that the woman will not get pregnant.
Don’t they exist in these palaces? Is it because you can’t afford it or support it?
It's really not the case. This is entirely because the demand for this technology is completely different between the palace and the palace. Contraception is very necessary in the palace.
Sometimes the emperor just fell in love with a certain woman on a whim, and she might not be the one he should sleep with. At this time, the emperor often did not want the woman to become pregnant.
Of course, most of the time, it is still about the balance of power in the palace. Not only must everyone get equal exposure to rain and dew, but the germination rate must not be too different!
But the royal family often does not pay attention to these. Due to the clan policy set by Zhu Yuanzhang, the families of the princes are very harmonious, and everyone works hard to produce.
Anyway, the more you work, the more you get, and you get titles and salaries based on your head. Naturally, it’s good for you and me, and everyone is good, and we are all happy whoever gives birth to a child.
So what does the palace prepare those herbal medicines and craftsmen for? It's completely unnecessary! Who would have thought that one day we would be able to use this thing?
But now that the situation has changed, King Gu is in great pain. With his salary and the money he has collected over the years, it is not a problem to support a few more children.
But the problem is that children will give birth to children, and he only has two iron rice bowls for his sons. He will not be able to support his children if there is an endless shortage of children and grandchildren.
It should be said that King Gu is still a very responsible father. Since he is not able to take care of so many descendants, he should have fewer children.
But in the absence of technical means, it is indeed too difficult to rely solely on King Gu's ability to adapt to the situation.
The King of the Valley was filled with rage, so naturally people from the White Lotus Sect came looking for him following the light of the fire.
Because Gu Wang usually does not take Paradise Pills, it is a little more difficult for the White Lotus Sect to meet Gu Wang than to meet Yi Wang. But hard work paid off, and we finally succeeded.
Here is something to interrupt, please readers will forgive me: There is actually only one generation of Valley Kings. The first generation of Valley Kings, Zhu Su, was killed by Zhu Di because he was suspected of treason, and the country was exterminated for crimes.
I forgot about this when I was writing the book. It was already written like this in several previous chapters, and I will use this title later on. Fortunately, this is not a history book. Please forgive me.
King Gu looked at Ji Zi in front of him and was very surprised. How could the majestic leader of the Changsha branch of the White Lotus Sect have such virtue? Could it be that his wife is very beautiful?
"Your Majesty, the common people are very polite!"
King Gu jumped up: "Damn, you are really called Wu Da! Is your wife really called Pan Jinlian?"
Wu Da shook his head in embarrassment: "Actually, the common people call me Wu Yong, but my friends in the world nicknamed me Wu Da when they saw that I looked like this.
As time went by, no one knew the real name, and ordinary people had no choice but to make mistakes and use it as a name. "
King Gu nodded: "I see, you tried every possible means to seek an audience with me. Why? As a rebellious Bai Lian, you dare to go in and out of the palace. Aren't you afraid of death?"
Wu laughed and said, "The White Lotus Sect of the Changsha generation has always lived in peace with the prince. Wuhan University and the Holy Sect have always been grateful to the prince for his tolerance."
King Gu sneered: "Eradicating the White Lotus Sect is the responsibility of local officials, and I am too lazy to talk to you. But I don't want to have anything to do with you either!
Just this once, listen to what you say, and then get away from me. If you dare to come again, I will definitely arrest you and hand you over to the government! "
Wu Da chuckled: "Your Majesty, we are all poor devils from birth. From the day we joined the religion, we have already pinned our heads to our belts.
Dead or not, it really doesn't make much difference. But the prince is different. When the prince is born, he is destined to be rich and prosperous.
Now that this wealth has become less and less, and future generations can no longer enjoy it, will the prince be willing to do so? "
Prince Gu's face darkened: "Are you here to persuade me to rebel? How courageous! Since you are not afraid of death, let's wait and see if you are not afraid of pain either!"
Wu Da was not afraid at all and said with a smile: "If the prince doesn't rebel, of course someone will rebel. We are all princes. Whoever rebels first will be more likely to be praised as the emperor in the future."
A cold light flashed in King Gu's eyes: "Tell me, who will resist?"
Wu Da shook his head: "You can't say that, but within a few days, the prince will naturally know it. The prince doesn't want to be the first, but it doesn't matter.
Although there is an opportunity for rebellion, it still depends on who is stronger in the end! The Holy Envoy of our religion has said, Your Majesty, you are young, strong, martial and virtuous, and I am most optimistic about you.
If the prince gets into trouble, the White Lotus Sect will definitely support him with all his strength. The White Lotus Sect has many allies from Mongolia, Jurchens, Japanese pirates, Huijiang, and Tibetan areas, so why should the prince worry about accomplishing great things? "
King Gu pondered for a long time, and finally waved his hand: "Leave the address and go ahead. If I change my mind, I will find you. Don't take another step into the palace!"
In the next few days, the White Lotus Sect secretly spied on the members who had sneaked into Prince Gu's palace, and the news they got was that Prince Gu was training his guards and servants.
Wu Da knew that King Gu was waiting for the first one to raise the flag, and he was actually waiting too. He had already contacted some other dissatisfied clans, especially the clans that were about to surpass the fifth generation, waiting for the opportunity.
As a result, the officers and soldiers from Wuhan University who came to carry out the encirclement and suppression campaign, the Changsha prefect and the Jin Yiwei, led the officers and soldiers to raid the White Lotus Sect's home base.
Although Wu Da has short legs, he can run fast. Seeing that there were officers and soldiers everywhere, he led the remaining followers straight to Prince Gu's Mansion.
There are not many officers and soldiers coming to attack the White Lotus Sect, only two thousand people. The other clans are already ready. As long as the King of Valley takes action, they will swarm forward.
Just as Wu Da knocked on the door of Prince Gu's Mansion twice, the door suddenly opened. The King of the Valley is riding on a horse with bright armor, and his soldiers are all murderous.
Wu Da was delighted: "Your Majesty, there are not many officers and soldiers. As long as Your Majesty dares to take action, I will set off fireworks and our prepared men will kill them together!"
King Gu laughed: "Okay, set off the fireworks, gather your men, and let's fight out!"
Wuhan University took out the fireworks from his waist and set them off into the sky. Sure enough, as the fireworks bloomed in the sky, teams of varying numbers of people emerged from every corner of Changsha City.
A dozen or dozens of people, with their servants, led by the White Lotus cultists, shouted and killed in the direction of Prince Gu's Mansion.
Wu Da was overjoyed and pointed to the distance: "Your Majesty, listen, that is our team, but unfortunately we can't see it. Alas, we saw it! We saw it!"
Wuhan University was pleasantly surprised to find that he had seen it. It was clear that he had seen all the people coming from all directions!
How did I see it? I'm so short...
As Wu Da's head fell to the ground, King Gu gritted his teeth and pointed his sword outward.
"Guards, I have reported to the court to assist local officials in wiping out the White Lotus Sect and arresting clan members who dare to rebel. Follow me!"
Only then did the remaining White Lotus believers realize that the location of their lair was betrayed to the local government by King Gu. Their eyes turned red, and they roared and rushed forward to talk to the Valley King.
Fight hard.
But in front of the thousand guards of the Valley King, the White Lotus Sect's small force was really vulnerable, and the entire army was quickly wiped out.
Not only them, the rebels who rushed towards Prince Gu's Mansion were also surrounded by officers and soldiers led by Prince Gu and the prefect of Changsha. They were killed and arrested, but none of them escaped.
Seeing that the rebels were destroyed, King Gu led the guards back to the house, took off his armor and discarded his swords, and never left the house again. The prefect of Changsha looked at Shen Lian beside him and laughed softly.
"Master Shen, it's all thanks to you that Prince Gu has stepped back from the brink this time.
Shen Lian solemnly said: "Master Magistrate, Master Xiao ordered me. He said that King Gu's crime was relatively minor among the kings, and there was nothing harmful to the world.
Let me tell him immediately about King Yi's rebellion and death. The communication between us is fast, and the local White Lotus Sect has not received the news yet.
King Gu had a disobedient heart, and when he learned about King Yi's fate, he naturally repented. "
This kind of thing happens everywhere. The White Lotus Sect thought they were waiting for a good opportunity, so they took action decisively and contacted the princes and clans from various places. Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng had ordered the Jin Yiwei to ambush near these clans earlier.
The White Lotus Sect thinks who is most likely to be won over to rebel. As the author of the punishment decree and the author of the new clan law, Xiao Feng naturally knows who they are most likely to win over.
Even if the White Lotus Sect's whereabouts are secretive, Jin Yiwei cannot track them. But the person they contacted was easily accessible to Jin Yiwei.
Xiao Feng gave Jin Yiwei a list of names. Those who had committed serious crimes should be ignored and waited for them to rebel and catch them all.
If there are extenuating circumstances and the crime is not worthy of death, go and persuade them to use it as bait and recruit people from the White Lotus Sect to atone for their sins.
This operation of the White Lotus Sect caused ten times more heavy losses to the White Lotus Sect than Xiao Feng's previous southern tour.
The last time the White Lotus Sect was exterminated and lost three branches, this time Xiao Feng followed the lead and lost more than ten branches in one fell swoop because of contacting various clans.
The saddest thing is that, after paying such a high price, the small fire they lit did not ignite the dry firewood everywhere as expected.
Because the Ming Dynasty's army deployed its defenses extremely accurately at the places where problems were most likely to occur, King Yi's first fire was extinguished by a splash of urine, and the subsequent fires naturally could not burn.
Unsurprisingly, Anda Khan chose to wait and see. Both the chieftain and Ke Zifan opposed Miao Jiang's immediate intervention. The pirates and Japanese pirates along the coast were beaten by Wang Zhi's fleet and found it difficult to dock. .
The Japanese pirates who had already landed were chased by Hu Zongxian and Yu Dayou with their troops along the coast, and they were beaten so fiercely that they had no time to pay attention to them.
Only the Jurchens outside the pass were ready to move, but the Ming Dynasty mobilized a large number of cavalry from Shandong, Hebei and other places to reinforce Shanhaiguan.
Yang Zhao, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan, no longer had any worries. He led his men and horses around the Liaodong defense line every day. The Jurchens could only watch from a distance.
After several small encounters, the rangers from both sides retreated. The generals on both sides claimed that this was a misunderstanding, that they did not see the other side clearly and thought that the other side was a Tatar.
Among the overwhelming bad news, there were only two pieces of news that made the extremely angry Xiao Qin feel a little relieved.
Without these two pieces of news, the ridicule on Ke Zifan's face would have almost made him unable to stay in the big chieftain's house.
A piece of news came from the capital. The Qintian Supervisor was reporting to Jiajing. After observing the sky, he discovered that there may be a severe drought in most areas of the Central Plains next year!
Another news came from Uzang. The great living Buddhas had sent envoys to the capital to ask for an explanation for the death of Tiebang Lama Norbu Sang.
The first news verified the prediction made by the high priest using Gu magic, there will be a severe drought next year! This is the basis for all Xiao Qin's plans and actions next year!
The second news also excited Xiao Qin, because it verified his expectation about An Dahan. As expected, Anda Khan did not tell any news to the Tibetan area!
The Tibetan area sent people to the capital. Although the immediate trigger was the death of Tiebang Lama Norbu Sang, there was actually a greater dissatisfaction hidden behind it!
That is Jiajing’s advocating Taoism and suppressing Buddhism! The reason why Tibetan areas are getting further and further away from the Ming Dynasty is precisely because of Jiajing
He looked down upon Buddhism and even ordered the expulsion of lamas in the capital!
Please note that when Jiajing expelled the lamas, they did not expel the monks from the mainland at the same time. What does this mean? This shows that Jiajing not only looked down upon Buddhism, but also looked down upon Tibetan Buddhism!
This is really something that a monk can tolerate, but a lama cannot tolerate!
However, the lama was an authentic Buddhist practitioner after all, not a grassroots group like the White Lotus Sect, so they tolerated it and did not make a fuss.
At first, my cousin Zhengde believed in Tibetan Buddhism and invited us to live in the Leopard Room. We were given good food and drink, and we were treated as honored guests.
As a result, when the cousin died, the cousin came to power. Not only did he refuse to recognize his father as his father, he also refused to recognize his guests as guests!
The guests were expelled from the capital and returned to Tibetan areas. From then on, there was very little contact between the two parties and they were each in peace. Life would still be the same without the other person.
But, what do you mean by sending the Jinyi Guards to kill our Iron Bar Lama?
It’s okay if we can’t be guests, but we don’t want to be dead either!
Therefore, although we can't fight you, and we don't want to fight you, we still have to send someone over to ask for an explanation.
Xiao Qin was sure that given Jiajing's disdain for Buddhism and his unquestionable character, the lamas who tried to reason might receive the highest treatment from the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty.
Spank! The beating will make your hips shrink, the beating will make you unable to meditate, and the beating will make you doubt your life.
And after these lamas were beaten, it would inevitably trigger greater anger in the Tibetan areas. Their anger had been accumulated for so many years and had reached a critical point.
At this time, Xiao Qin only needs to stretch out a finger to poke it, and it will explode!
Xiao Qin has been preparing this finger for a long time: the Ming Dynasty is too bullying. It not only bullies your Tibetan areas, but also bullies the Miao areas, bullies our White Lotus Sect, bullies the nomads...
So let's fuck him! I am willing to lead the way, all you have to do is follow me and contribute money and people!
Yan Shifan, who was lying in the house, received the news from Xiao Qin. He sat up excitedly again and slapped her twice in the face.
Gradually, he was controlling the rhythm, but when he was hit by Yan Shifan, his mouth became a little harder. Yan Shifan lost control, yelled, and lay down again.
After a while, Yan Shifan gasped and said, "Gradually, this time is probably the last chance for the White Lotus Sect.
When the clan had an opportunity, Xiao Qin and Xiao Feng took action at the same time. As a result, Xiao Feng made an even more ruthless move and the White Lotus Sect suffered a huge loss.
In terms of time, envoys from Tibetan areas are expected to arrive in Beijing after the year. If the talks really break down, the Tibetan area will be used by Xiao Qin.
After that, spring plowing comes next! There was a severe drought during spring plowing, and Xiao Qin added fuel to the flames. All forces rose up in response, and Ming Dynasty was in trouble.
If it fails this time, Xiao Qin will have no chance in the future. Cooperating with me also requires capital! "
Yan Shifan suddenly sat up and stroked his head, which was gradually leaning on his broken leg, with an extremely complicated expression in his eyes.
"Gradually, if Xiao Qin and I part ways and go our separate ways, will you still follow me?"
Gradually he smiled seductively: "I will follow whoever is stronger. At least now it seems that he is still stronger than you."
Yan Shifan pinched Xuexi's neck hard, Xuexiao let out a sigh, and his eyebrows smiled even more happily.
"We'll see, it won't be long before you know who is stronger!"
