It was soft. Li Chun had already used it on Zhang Bi. Even if he put it to his mouth, he wouldn't eat it.
Therefore, Li Chun didn't have the patience to do anything soft again, and he planned to go straight to Lin Linyou's hard one.
Lin Linyou never expected that he would be the first person to be investigated when Nansi was established.
…
Lin Linyou felt a little uneasy today and had a bad premonition.
Probably because the weather was too hot and the clouds were thick and dark, as if it was going to rain.
Ever since she had skin-to-skin contact with Yue Rong that night, Yue Rong has become more and more attached to him, threatening to force him to get married. Fortunately, they only had a skin-to-skin kiss on the mouth and did not go any further. It was not that Lin Linyou was determined, but Zhang Bi and Lin Long were hiding under the window outside the house and watching.
Of course, Lin Linyou's few love experiences also told him that it was easy to trick a woman into going to bed, but coaxing her out of bed was not that simple.
So in the past few days, Lin Linyou had been running to Baihu Station very frequently, just to avoid Yue Rong, for fear that he would give her up if he couldn't control himself.
It's more straightforward to go to Jiaofangsi to spend some money without having to worry about anything afterwards.
Afterwards, Zhang Bi asked knowingly: "Did you sleep with Rong'er?"
"Sleep, don't you agree?"
"You didn't sleep."
"You know you still ask?"
Zhang Ben teased: "Why don't you sleep?"
Lin Linyou: "Because it doesn't work."
"Why not?"
"No, it just won't work."
Zhang Bi nodded: "You have to pay the price for sleeping with a woman."
Lin Linyou was actually still worried about Ji Gang. Ji Gang was by no means that generous. He snatched Yue Rong from him, but he excused himself by saying that he didn't like Yue Rong's big feet, which meant that Lin Linyou could relax.
But in fact, he was just worried about Zhang Bi behind Lin Linyou, the British Duke Zhang Fu behind Zhang Bi, and the group of civil servants. Lin Linyou's background was known to Ji Gang for a long time. In addition to Zhang Bi and Zhang Fu's support, Lin Linyou also had his own contacts in the civil service. He got to know many people through Xu Shilang of the Ministry of Industry.
Ji Gang was waiting for an opportunity to uproot the princelings.
The Zhang family is also waiting for an opportunity to capture Jin Yiwei into the hands of the Zhang family.
Lin Linyou has now become the most conspicuous fuse. Ji Gang, Zhu Youxi, Jiang Hua, the White Lotus Sect... After all, he has offended too many people, and he is just waiting to see who will ignite him first.
Zhang Bi said: "The enemy cannot move, I cannot move."
Lin Linyou: "You really think you are the Fudo Ming King! How can you not move even when the enemies are moving like rabbits?"
Ye Zongxing, Geng Tong, Zhou Xin... civil servants were killed one after another. Xie Jin is still in prison and it will be his turn soon.
Cool officials such as Chen Ying, Pang Ying, Qin Zhengxue and others from Ji Gang's faction are becoming more and more prosperous.
…
Recently, Lin Linyou has been leading a team to arrest White Lotus cultists all over the capital. Most of the people he captured were people from Wukong Hall. When he tore their clothes open, he found that there was indeed a monkey tattooed on their back.
During the interrogation of several people, the identities of their time-travelers were discovered from the conversations. However, Lin Linyou didn't expose them. After all, he did too. Doesn't exposing them mean self-destruction?
Lin Linyou suddenly realized, is it possible that the name Wukongtang is not derived from Wukongtang? But it was brought by time-travelers!
The first card Li Chun played was Wukong Hall.
"If you want to unify the White Lotus, don't you have to rely on our Jin Yiwei?" Li Chun once said to the leader of the Wukong Hall, "The White Lotus Seal Sword is in the hands of our Kingo. The seal can only be found overseas by us. As long as we cooperate well, That seal sword will belong to your Wukong Hall sooner or later."
The sword refers to the Yitian Sword. The seal is the legendary Mingjiao Holy Fire Order.
All sects of the White Lotus Sect believe that whoever obtains the Seal Sword will be the orthodox White Lotus and will be able to dominate the world.
When outsiders hear this, they may think it is ridiculous. But as the chief rudder of the Tiandihui said: Most of the people who have read books and understood things are now officials in the court. Therefore, if you want to fight against the imperial court, you have to use some stupid people. To those stupid people, you must never tell the truth to them. You must use religious methods to hypnotize them to make them feel that what they do is right. of.
Therefore, "unify the world" is just a slogan, which is the same as resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, not all sects’ slogans are “unify the world.” After all, if they are too high-profile, they can easily become the target of public criticism. For example, Wukong Hall’s current slogan is “The vacuum is immortal.”
The people of the White Lotus Sect were able to make friends with court officials like Li Chun. In addition to using each other, it was also inseparable from the popularity of fortune-telling and alchemy at that time.
Before Taizu ascended the throne of the Ming Dynasty, he had a fierce fight with astrologers. He once called Liu Rixin, an astrologer, to recommend his destiny, and he was overjoyed when he announced the destiny of "extremely rich and noble".
When Zhu Di was in Yandi, he had a close relationship with the famous fortune tellers Yuan Gong and Yuan Zhongche, their father and son. Yuan Gong's physiognomy was exquisite and famous throughout the world in the Yuan Dynasty. He met Zhu Di and promised that "if he ascends the throne, he will be the emperor of peace for twenty years." To a certain extent, this also strengthened Zhu Di's determination to launch the "Jingnan Campaign".
Now Zhu Di is also a person who has gathered all the magic skills in the world for his own use.
As a result, a trend of socializing with alchemists among officials and gentlemen was formed. They "believe a lot in geography", that is, the art of Feng Shui. When they get together, most of them talk about some unflattering words and astrology, and watch the magicians performing "empty basins turn into snakes" and "empty cups turn into wine" and dance with admiration. .
…
In the early morning, heavy rain fell from the sky. The rain was heavier than the day Jiang Zhishu stole the battery.
From time to time there was a flash of lightning, followed by a muffled thunder.
When he woke up early in the morning, Lin Linyou couldn't find his Xiuchundao. He usually kept it under his pillow when sleeping. But the night before, he went to Yue Rong Linlong's room and sat there for a long time. When he came back, he couldn't find it. Pay attention to whether the embroidered spring knife is still there.
Losing the Yuci Xiuchun knife was a serious crime. Before anyone found out, Lin Linyou planned to go to Qianhu Station to look for Zhang Bi. If the knife was really lost, then an enemy must have come to visit. The biggest The suspect is Jiang Hua! For the current plan, let Zhang Bi come forward and ask for one from the imperial prison. After all, many Jin Yiwei have died recently, and many Xiuchun knives have been returned.
As soon as the courtyard door opened, a man wearing a raincoat and a hat stood upright in the rain. He held a knife, and under the knife was Yang Wei, the captain of the Jinyi School.
Yang Wei was dying. His eyes were swollen as big as an egg. There was a small slit in the middle. When he saw Lin Lin swimming out, he seemed to be struggling to move, trying hard to open the slit in his eye.
"Brother Lin, bring your umbrella..." Yue Rong came up from the corridor holding an oil-paper umbrella.
"Don't come over!" Lin Linyou shouted, because the rain was coming, and he was also anxious.
But Yue Rong was startled by his loud shout and froze on the spot.
"Bang!" Lin Linyou slammed the courtyard door shut.
Across the door, Yue Rong felt aggrieved, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Wukong Tang Yuan Wei, say hello to Master Baihu!" The man in the coir raincoat said, raised his hand and wiped Yang Wei's neck with a knife.
Yang Wei fell softly to the ground, the blood from his throat gushing out and joining the rain on the ground.
After killing Yang Wei, Yuan Wei raised his hand and threw the knife towards his face. Lin Linyou ducked sideways and caught the knife. When he turned around, Sun Hao's figure had disappeared into the rain.
Only then did Lin Linyou realize that the familiar knife in his hand was the Xiuchun knife that he had been missing!
While he was stunned, another group of figures appeared in the rain curtain, wearing more exquisite coir raincoats and hats, carrying knives. As he got closer, Lin Linyou could see clearly that they were a group of guards in brocade uniforms.
The leading man stepped forward, looked at Yang Wei's body on the ground, cupped his hands towards Lin Linyou, and said: "Lin Baihu, I am in Xia Nansi Sun Hao. I received a letter that a brother was killed here. The perpetrator..."
"I didn't kill the person." Lin Linyou held the knife.
Sun Hao smiled: "It's raining and windy, and there are many people talking. I would like to ask Brother Lin to come with us to Nansi."
