Zhou Bi said with a smile: "Young master told me that he heard that most of the abbots in Jiangnan temples are inextricably linked with the rebels!"
When the waiter heard this, he glanced at Zhou Bi.
Zhou Bi continued: "So Young Master has already called me in the letter. Even if the commander of Lengshuiguan doesn't drive us away, we must find a way to come to Jincheng Temple!"
Qin Lie interrupted him and said, "Wait a minute, Liangfu, can you make it clearer? It sounds a bit confusing to me."
Zhou Bi said: "Do you still remember the Guangxiaolu Temple in Hailing City?"
"I know!"
"I even burned incense!"
"Of course I know!"
Everyone was talking about it.
Zhou Bi said: "This temple is extraordinary. The abbots of all temples south of the Yangtze River must come to this temple to learn Buddhist law before becoming abbots!"
"What does this have to do with Jincheng Temple? Even if the abbot of Jincheng Temple studied in Guangxiao Temple, what does this mean?" Qin Lie asked confused.
Zhou Bi said with a smile: "Previously, the Jin Yiwei found out that the abbot of Guangxiao Temple is actually a leader of the White Lotus Sect's rebels."
"Hiss!" Everyone gasped.
"Doesn't that mean that the abbots of all the temples south of the river are rebels? Then why not arrest them quickly?"
Zhou Bi shook his head: "It's definitely not possible for all of them, but Jincheng Temple definitely is. This is because the young master found the relationship with Nanzhen Fusi to help us find out."
Qin Lie asked curiously: "Since you know that Jincheng Temple is related to the rebels, why do you still want to do it?"
Zhou Bi said: "There are only a few thousand troops of Xin'an Guard at Lengshui Pass. If we want to stop the rebels, even the remnant soldiers pretending to be Yingzhou Guard are unable to stop them."
"It won't work even with us!"
"So we have to help Xin'an Guard hold off the rebels before the imperial reinforcements arrive."
Thirteen frowned when he heard this and said: "Secretary Zhou, there is something wrong with what you said! Since we want to help Xin'an Guard hold off the rebels, why don't we go to Lengshuiguan?"
Zhou Bi nodded and said: "Firstly, Jincheng Temple is strong and easy to defend. Secondly, our coming to Jincheng Temple will make the thieves in Jincheng Temple think that we and Xin'an Guard are in conflict with each other, and then secretly report to the rebels in Hefei. As for the third one!" "
Seeing that he was silent, Thirteen immediately became anxious: "Secretary Zhou, please stop showing off!"
"Also, we are very close to Nicha River!"
"Nicha River?"
Everyone frowned in unison.
Nicha River, avoid Nicha River when you come here, why are you mentioning Nicha River now?
We've already reached the ground, what's going on with the Nicha River?
Suddenly, Qin Lie slammed the table, startling everyone.
"I see!"
"Liangsuke, you just said that the imperial court has reinforcements, so the real purpose of our coming to Jincheng Temple is, on the one hand, to help Lengshuiguan attract some rebels and share the pressure on Lengshuiguan, and the other part is actually to help the rebels in Tuqiaohe River? "
Seeing Zhou Bi smiling at him, Qin Lie became more sure of his idea.
"The thieves in Tuqiao River must have arranged all their men and ships at the mouth of the river to prevent them from entering. We set out from Jincheng. The thieves in Tuqiao River must not have expected that they would be caught off guard by us!"
Thirteen heard this and clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "I understand. As long as we capture the Tuqiao River, we can completely open up the Yangtze River! Only then can the imperial troops and horses be transported to Lengshuiguan through the Yangtze River!"
Zhou Bi nodded with a smile and said: "This is the real purpose of the young master. However, in order to prevent the news from leaking, only Mr. Xu Ge and Zhang Bingxian in the court know about this!"
Thirteen smiled and said: "My Mr. Xu, hey, I don't know how long my brain is. When others pass the Jinshi examination, it's not enough time to read those saints' articles every day. He is sitting in Beijing and actually talks about the affairs of Nanzhili. I’ve thought about it all!”
Qin Lie asked curiously: "Liangfu, the results of the general examination should have come out. In the letter that the young master wrote to you, did you say whether he passed the examination or not?"
"I must have passed the exam!" Daozi was more confident than Xu He himself. "With our young master's brains, if he fails the exam, none of the people who came to Beijing to take the exam will be able to pass the exam!"
Zhou Bi said: "I don't know. The young master didn't mention that he would take the test in his letter. I asked people from the capital, and the junior official in the Ministry of War also kept silent."
"What do you mean by keeping silent?" Thirteen was stunned.
"I just refuse to say it!"
Thirteen scolded: "Secretary, if you encounter a guy like this who deserves a beating, call me next time. I promise to beat him until his mother doesn't even recognize him when she sees him."
Zhou Bi smiled and shook his head: "He will naturally tell us about the young master's affairs. We just need to follow his instructions and do things well!"
…
Beijing city.
Xu Hezhai·Study.
The boy brought a basin of charcoal fire and placed it at the feet of Xu He and Xie Kun.
Xie Kun bent down and stretched out his hand to warm it, then sighed and said: "Liangsheng, others go to the Ministry of Etiquette early in the morning to look at the results, but it's better for you to sit in the study and study hard! No wonder you can become a member of the academy, just This kind of determination was not as strong as yours when I was young!"
Xu He smiled and said: "Uncle, you said that I have mastered the Yuan Dynasty, what's the point of going to see me again?"
Xie Kun shook his head and said: "That's different. This is a major event in life. It's hard for a person to pass the Huiyuan exam once in his life. If it were me, even if I knew it in advance, I would have to see the results in person to feel at ease. Otherwise, I would I can’t read the book!”
Xu He smiled bitterly and said: "What I'm worried about now is not the title of Huiyuan, my mind is on Luzhou!"
Xie Kun frowned and said, "The coastal defense camp should have reached Lengshui Pass by the time, right?"
Xu He looked strange and said: "Uncle, I have something I don't know whether to talk about or not."
Xie Kun was stunned: "Is there anything we should or should not discuss between us? Just say it!"
When Xu He heard this, he told about the letter he wrote to Zhou Bi and Zhang Jingxian.
When Xie Kun heard this, he sat on his chair in shock and was speechless for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, he slowly said: "No wonder, I told Mr. Ge at that time that even if the troops of the Jinling Guards and the Xuzhou Guards merged together, it would still be dangerous to pass through the narrow section of the Tuqiao River. Mr. Ge Smiling without saying a word, it turns out that the Haiphong Camp..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly became angry and said: "You didn't tell me about such a big thing!"
Seeing Xie Kun who suddenly stood up and became angry, Xu He quickly bowed and saluted: "Uncle, you have misunderstood me and uncle!"
"misunderstanding?" Without informing him.
Xu He said: "Uncle, you have been in the palace these two days, has His Majesty summoned you?"
Xie Kun glared at Xu He: "I summoned you, how about it?"
"Did I ask you about the cold water connection?"
"asked!"
Xu He arrived: "Uncle, do you think His Majesty will let the coastal defense battalion act alone to wipe out the rebel navy in Tuqiao River?"
Xie Kun was stunned when he heard this. Not to mention his brother-in-law, even he would not dare to take such a big risk...
Xu He smiled: "I don't tell you because I want you not to deceive me!"
"You..." When Xie Kun thought about it, it was true that he would not hide his brother-in-law from the Zheng Emperor, and he also wanted to disrupt Xu He's plan. If he really knew about this, he would be in a dilemma.
To put it bluntly, Xu He was considering him from his standpoint.
Thinking of this, Xie Kun sighed and said: "Mr. Ge really trusts the Haiphong Camp!"
After saying that, he thought about it and said, "Mr. Ge really trusts you Liangsheng!"
