Yao Guangxiao nodded to Zhu Su, then turned to look at Zhang Dingbian:
"It seems that the poor monk is blind. That day, I felt that the layman was not an ordinary person. But I didn't expect that the layman turned out to be the famous Captain Zhang."
"The lay people have shown the utmost benevolence to the Chen family. Now that the Ming Dynasty has unified the world, the world is looking forward to peace. Now that you have escaped into our Buddhist sect, why do you still have to wade through this muddy water? Are you even willing to commit murder?" Yao Guangxiao clasped his hands and said, There is also something solemn about the treasure.
Zhu Su looked at Yao Guangxiao's appearance and secretly rolled his eyes: How does this sound like something you should say to yourself?
However, these words made Zhang Dingbian, who was already imposing, start to talk a little bit. He touched his head and pulled off the turban on his head, revealing a shiny bald head. Zhu Su immediately understood why he rushed into the battle wearing a turban that night. The bald head was indeed very eye-catching.
He also immediately understood why Zhang Dingbian was so famous that he had been hiding for so long under the household registration system, but he had never heard of a trace: After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was on guard against the troubles of the Yuanting nobles by lamas, and he also Or maybe they want these idle monks to devote themselves to production... In short, the imperial court has extremely strict control over the distribution of ultimatums to monks.
But this kind of thing cannot be ignored. Some monks who could not get the ultimatum had no choice but to return to their hometown to marry and farm. However, there are also some monks who are unwilling to return to secular life and are not allowed to practice in some temples because they have no ultimatum, so they have no choice but to live all over the world, traveling around the temples and asking for alms.
These monks who do not have ultimatums and travel around to beg for alms are called "wandering monks".
Lao Zhu himself actually worked in this profession back then.
Although this group of monks did not have household registration or ultimatums, they were common in the entire Ming Dynasty, so they did not attract attention. Even the government turns a blind eye to such people. If you want to hide under the Ming Dynasty's household registration system, becoming such a wandering monk is indeed the most suitable thing.
"...We did a bad job in killing people." Zhang Dingbian sighed. "However, Brother Chen (Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian are sworn brothers) has been very kind to me. I can't let this little girl be in jail."
Yao Guangxiao shook his head: "If she were an ordinary woman, that would be fine. But this woman gathered assassins to assassinate the king and kill him. She even intended to cause chaos. If she succeeds, the people will be in trouble in an instant."
"This action, layman, is really inappropriate. You have already done your best to the Chen family. This woman is not a good person, and what she did will lead to death. Why do you want to collude with this thief again?"
Judging from the fact that Zhang Dingbian showed mercy to Chang Mao and even most of the soldiers, only wounding but not killing, Yao Guangxiao guessed that Zhang Dingbian did not want to offend the Ming Dynasty at this time, nor did he want to commit more crimes. As the saying goes, it takes seven inches to hit a snake, so he used words to try to drive a wedge between Chen Hui and Zhang Dingbian.
Over there, Chen Hui blushed and wanted to step forward. Beside Zhu Su, the dog immediately pointed its bow and arrow at Chen Hui. Zhang Ding raised his hand to block Chen Hui behind him, and faced the dog's arrow without fear: "As I said, Brother Chen is very kind to us. I must save this girl."
"King Wu of the Ming Dynasty, we can see that you are a good man. For our sake, why do you have to have trouble with her?"
"We are her uncles and elders. We will definitely discipline her well in the future. Otherwise, I will prevent her from ever setting foot in the Ming Dynasty again. I, Zhang Dingbian, will pay for the sins she has committed." ,how?"
"I, the Ming Dynasty, have my own laws! Who are you, Zhang Dingbian? Why do I want to see this for your sake?" Zhu Su heard that although Zhang Dingbian still insisted on his own opinion, his words contained a hint of shame and submission. As soon as he showed the folding fan in his hand, an idea came to his mind.
"You...ignorant child!"
"Brother Zhang has a great reputation. Who in the world doesn't know his reputation? He is a great hero! A thousand times better than a brat like you! How dare you humiliate him like this!" Before Zhang Dingbian said anything, the few people behind him A companion was already furious.
"Great hero? Ha." Zhu Su deliberately laughed loudly. "What merit does he have? The credit for killing so many Han people? The credit for killing and injuring my soldiers? Or is it the credit for shielding this female thief who colluded with the Japanese and invaded our Chinese territory?"
Zhu Su pointed his hand at the soldiers around him and said to Zhang Dingbian: "Zhang Dingbian, some people may respect you for your former bravery, but I dismiss it."
"I'm not afraid to tell you that these sergeants, as well as the sergeants you killed and wounded when you charged at the river that night, are all the royal guards of me and my second brother, King Zhu Feng of Qin."
"We, the King of Wu and our guards, are all orphans of the heroes who marched north. Their fathers and brothers died because they left the Great Wall to conquer the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. They joined the army because they wanted to inherit their father and brother's legacy, drive the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty north and protect them. I am the pure land of China."
"And King Qin and Wang Wei are all athletes in the Northern Expedition! Only with their flesh and blood can we have the peace and tranquility of the Ming Dynasty. They want to use their own bodies to build the Great Wall of China!"
"I put my words here today: killing fellow tribesmen is not a hero."
"Jingqing Beibei is my husband!"
In front, the guards of King Qin and King Wu who surrounded Zhang Dingbian all straightened their chests and became even more powerful after hearing Zhu Su's melody. On the other hand, if Zhang Dingbian is on one side, his energy will be snatched away by him.
"And where are you, Zhang Dingbian?" Zhu Su narrowed his eyes and glanced at Zhang Dingbian deliberately with disdain.
"Of all your reputations in your life, which one was established by killing those foreign thieves? Among the kings and guards present, their fathers and brothers, and themselves, which one has killed more Yuan people and Japanese than you, Zhang Dingbian?"
"In my opinion, those who died in vain under your swords can be called our heroes of China!"
"And you are just the sinners who indiscriminately killed our Chinese national hero!"
All around Zhang Dingbian, those who came with him suddenly became unnatural. Some people even looked so ashamed that they didn’t know what to say. Zhang Ding looked at the blood stains on the big knife in his hand, and his face looked a little ugly.
Zhu Su saw that the rhetoric was effective, so he suppressed the joy in his heart and continued to make impassioned gestures in front of the shocked eyes of Yao Guangxiao and others:
"My Ming Dynasty finally managed to hold up the backbone of China and drove away the thieves who occupied our country. My father established the country, cared about the people, and improved people's livelihood. The people of China have been exploited for a hundred years, and finally we have a good emperor. , to live a good life.”
"However, Chen Hui and Zhang Ren colluded with the Japanese pirates for their own selfish purposes, trying to revive the war and harm the people! This is a traitor! If you associate with traitors, you will also be a traitor. Are you worthy of your ancestors?"
"If I were you, I should kill this female thief off the horse with a sword at this moment, then switch sides, take off my armor, and surrender as a courtesy!"
"In this way, I will treat you as if you had gone astray and corrected your past mistakes. You will not lose your true qualities as a hero!" Zhu Su's words can be said to be resounding.
Over there, all the ashamed-looking friends around Zhang Ding felt enlightened when they heard this, and their spirits were lifted. They all looked at Chen Hui, who looked horrified, with evil eyes...
