Of course, Chen Kan also knew that this was not Lao Zhu's fault.
After all, Lao Zhu came from a lower class background, and it is understandable that he governs the country with a sense of small family and idealism.
It is even more impossible for Chen Kan to criticize him from the long river of history.
Living in a different place, even if Chen Kan has a forward-looking vision that is six hundred years ahead of this era, he cannot guarantee that he can do better than Lao Zhu.
There is no perfect system in this world.
The only thing Chen Kan can do is to find ways to solve the shortcomings of the system when they break out.
As for how to solve it, Chen Kan hasn't thought of it yet. He will wait until he thinks of it.
When he was distracted for a while, when he came back to his senses, he didn't know when a beautiful woman with outstanding temperament was sitting next to him.
Chen Kan looked around and saw that there were two generals sitting next to them, one pouring wine and the other feeding vegetables.
For example, Zhang Xin is an old man who is not shy.
However, this seems to be Zhang Xin's house.
That's okay.
The woman asked: "Why is the young master distracted?"
Chen Kan smiled and shook his head: "Nothing."
"Then let me serve you some wine."
The woman's voice was very nice. Chen Kan recognized that the woman was the one standing in the C position in the song and dance performance just now. She had the best appearance and the best temperament among all the kabuki actors.
Sending a beauty of the highest quality to accompany Chen Kan, it seems that Zhang Xin understands what it means to reciprocate love.
Chen Kan was not polite, put the wine glass on the table, and said confidently: "Just pour half a glass, you can't drink more."
The woman was stunned, but still poured half a glass of wine for Chen Kan as she was told.
There is a saying, red crisp hands, yellow wine, two orioles singing green willows.
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, a row of egrets ascended into the sky.
…
…
The next day, I went to the Imperial Academy to have a rest.
Chen Kan was about to start this idle day when Xu Yuan suddenly sent a message asking him to go to the Military and Horse Department in Zhongcheng.
Chen Kan rode his horse to the Zhongcheng Army and Horse Department and found that several commanders from the Five Cities Army and Horse Department were there. He couldn't help but laugh and said: "What's going on with such a big battle?"
From the expressions on several people's faces, Chen Kan already had a guess in his mind.
Sure enough, as soon as Chen Kan appeared, Xu Yuan wheeled his wheelchair and came over with a joyful expression.
He responded happily: "Sir, the batch of supplies that was intercepted by Longping Marquis last month was sent back by the former military governor's office today."
Chen Kan knew that it was the fifty thousand taels of silver that played a role.
He said calmly: "Really? That's a good thing."
Shi Wen also happily stepped forward and said, "Sir, there is another good thing. The Buddhist disciple of the White Lotus Sect has recently appeared in Hangzhou Prefecture and Shaoxing Prefecture."
Chen Kan's expression became serious: "Is the news confirmed?"
Shi Wen said sternly: "I'm sure. Brothers have found out that Fozi has recently developed many followers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It seems that he has some conspiracy."
"In addition, according to the White Lotus cultists captured by the brothers, their saint has also appeared."
"Saint?"
"Tang Sai'er, Holy Mother of White Lotus?"
When Shi Wen mentioned the White Lotus Saint, Chen Kan immediately thought of a great revolutionary pioneer who rose up in Yidu to resist the rule of the tyrant Zhu Di eighteen years later.
But Chen Kan remembered that Tang Saier should be just over three years old now. At the age of three, he could preach and develop believers everywhere?
He asked curiously: "How old is the saint of the White Lotus Sect, and where did she appear?"
Shi Wen said: "I don't know the age yet. He is also active in Hangzhou and Shaoxing Prefecture. Sir, I suspect that the White Lotus Sect must have some conspiracy in Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"You don't have to say it."
Chen Kan said angrily, then he thought about it and whispered in Shi Wen's ear: "Find a way to reveal the news that the White Lotus Sect is planning to start an uprising in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to Jin Yiwei, and then..."
After Chen Kan finished speaking, Shi Wen's eyes lit up.
"My subordinates will do it now."
Chen Kan nodded. The foundation of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division was too shallow, and its local penetration was not strong enough.
However, the Jin Yiwei monitors the world's affairs, and its power among the people is much stronger than that of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division.
The White Lotus Sect wants to rebel against such a big thing, whether it is true or false, I don't believe Ji Gang dares to take it seriously.
Using other people's strength to do one's own thing, Chen Kan used to like to call this behavior a white wolf with empty gloves, but now that he has integrated into the Ming Dynasty, Chen Kan knows another name for this behavior - killing with a borrowed knife.
"Go do it."
"Eh~"
Shi Wen bent down and was about to go out, Chen Kan said: "Come back early, I will treat everyone to dinner today."
Hearing this, Xu Yuan smiled and said, "My lord, you are in a good mood today."
Chen Kan said: "It's not bad."
The wedding is approaching, the generals have reconciled, the weapons are in hand, and clues to the White Lotus Sect have been obtained. There is great joy in the family, and there is no reason for Chen Kan to be in a bad mood.
…
Near noon, there was a small village on the bank of the Cao'e River, sixty miles away from Shaoxing Fucheng.
The village is called Xiao Cao'e Village. It is said that Cao E, a filial daughter during the Eastern Han Dynasty, threw herself into the river here to find her father.
The village is not big, with about twenty or thirty households. Looking from a distance, the village is shrouded in the curling smoke and reflected in the clear river, like a fairyland.
There is a house in the village that is different from other houses. The roofs of other houses are all made of thatch and mud, but that house is covered with bright yellow glazed tiles.
You must know that bright yellow glazed tiles are a color exclusively used by the royal family. Except for members of the royal family, it would be taboo for ordinary people to use it.
Judging from the color of the glazed tiles and the white plaster on the walls, this house must have been recently renovated.
In the main hall of the house is a tall shrine, which houses a smiling statue of Maitreya Buddha.
In the incense case in front of the Buddha statue, thick sandalwood sticks were still burning. In the open space in front of the incense case, a man and a woman were having sex naked.
The woman sat cross-legged on the man's waist, her skin all flushed, she made a loud sound, her eyes closed, and a look of madness appeared on her face.
The man, on the other hand, had a solemn look on his face, clasped his hands together, and was chanting some kind of scripture in a very charming voice.
"The mortal world is like a prison, all living beings are suffering, reincarnation is endless, sorrows are endless, pity our world, there are gods descending from the sky, lifeless old mother, empty hometown..."
"Ah~"
Suddenly a piercing scream came from the woman's mouth, her slender jade legs tightened, and her body became extremely stiff.
The man's breathing was also a little disordered, but he was still chanting: "Old mother without life, empty hometown..."
After several minutes, the woman's body suddenly collapsed and she fell onto the man's broad chest.
The chanting in the man's mouth still didn't stop, but became more and more charming.
The two stopped having sex, and two numb-looking women came forward, holding towels and basins to clean the dirt on their bodies.
The woman lay on the man's body, her long eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes like autumn water slowly opened.
