Chapter 528: Rumors from Beijing

It is undoubtedly an act of treason and chaos that the road of calamity must

establish a nation.

As the orthodox in this world, Datang is impossible to allow this to happen.

Therefore, once the robbery road establishes the country, Datang will

inevitably send troops to crusade against the ministers.

But here is the problem.

Jieyundao cannot just prepare food and grass in Jiangling City. In other

words, once Jieyundao establishes a country, it will inevitably trigger a

series of rebellions within Datang.

Only in this way can the imperial court's pressure on the Taoist country of

the Jieyundao be relieved, and the Taoist country can grow stably and gain

more time.

Elder Xu doesn't even need to understand the thoughts of the Lord of Jieyun.

This is a response that a normal person would think of.

Whether it's Jie Yundao, or the royal family and court of the Tang Dynasty,

they are all enemies of Mr. Xu. He wanted to see the dogs biting the dogs on

both sides, but Father Xu didn't want to see Datang really messed up.

After all, once Datang was completely chaotic, it was the innocent people who

suffered in the end.

He made a report to tell the world what he wanted to rebel. Under such

circumstances, if the court was unable to stop the coming war, then the people

would have grievances against the royal family.

Knowing that Jieyun Dao was going to rebel, he still couldn’t stop Jieyun Dao,

so the impotence of the imperial court was fully demonstrated.

Once the royal family loses the hearts of the people, then the family of their

own families will want to replace the Li family's royal family.

Mr. Xu has a good plan here.

But he didn't know that in the capital today, a piece of news was circulating

in the market.

The founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty was benevolent and hypocritical, in

order to build his mausoleum, he killed hundreds of thousands of civil

servants.

As the news spread, many bones appeared on the streets of the capital. These

bones appeared on the streets of the capital overnight. It is roughly

estimated that there are at least thousands of bones.

At the same time, rumors also said that the Taiping King Xu Zhengqi who fought

with the Taizu Emperor was actually killed by the Taizu Emperor.

Because the Taiping King was responsible for supervising the construction of

Emperor Taizu’s tomb, only the Taiping King was killed, and no one knew where

the Taizu Emperor’s tomb was actually located.

While these rumors spread, there were more rumors in the market, for example,

the royal family had been using the road of robbery to steal his luck.

The experience of Mr. Xu's mother and his mother was also brought up.

What happened to the elder princess being robbed of luck by the immortal

emperor, and the elder princess robbing her of her fate, and even transferring

the disaster to her son, were all spread.

Of course, there is no conclusive evidence for the rumors.

But there are some things that don’t need evidence. Some people believe that

these things are true.

...

In the Qiantian Temple, Emperor Yongping summoned the Manchu civil and

military, and looked rather uncomfortable.

In these days, the rumors in the market are rampant.

Emperor Yongping heard these rumors when he was in the palace. Even if the

Imperial City Secretary under the control of Yan Mei exerted all his energy,

he still failed to find out where the rumors had spread.

"Zhen Junhou, do you have any clues as to the source of the rumors?"

The market rumors couldn't be suppressed, and the Yongping Emperor was

naturally the first to settle the accounts with the army chief who was in

charge of the Imperial City Division.

Zhen Junhou left the queue and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the saint,

and still ask for it."

In fact, everyone knows that Jie Luck Dao is playing tricks behind these

things. But the problem is that after experiencing the previous strong

suppression of Jieyundao, Jieyundao has really become a rat in the sewer. It

is really difficult to find out.

"Zhenjunhou, I am very disappointed in you!"

When Emperor Yongping heard Yan Mei's answer, his face became more ugly, "It

has been a few days since the rumors appeared, and the Imperial City Division

has done nothing."

"The minister is incompetent, willing to be punished!"

Facing the angry Emperor Yongping, Yan Mei was very clear that the explanation

was useless, and his best way to deal with it was to simply admit his

shortcomings directly.

"If I punish you and can calm the rumors outside, I will never forgive you

lightly."

Although Emperor Yongping was angry, he had not fainted yet.

After all, Zhenjun Hou Yanmei's performance has always been remarkable. What's

more, Emperor Yongping once brought Yan Jing by mistake, so it's natural not

to be too harsh on Yan Mei at the moment.

"Marquis Zhen, I will not punish you now, I only ask, when will I find the

black hand behind the scenes and bring them to justice!"

Emperor Yongping stared at Yan Mei with scorching eyes.

Yan Mei showed a bitter face, bowed in response, and said, "Going back to the

sage, the minister is not sure that he can find the black hand behind the

scenes."

Knowing that the Black Hand is the Path of Fortune, but the Path of Fortune is

now hidden too deep, and the clues of the Path of Fortune that Huangcheng

Division once mastered were exhausted in the previous suppression.

Nowadays, the Imperial City Division has nothing to do with the path of

misfortune hidden in the dark.

"I don't care about this, I will give you three more days. If you can't clear

the rumors and find out the black hand behind the scenes, I will save you the

rank of the marquis of the town!"

"Chen, incompetent!"

Hearing the words of Emperor Yongping, Zhenjun Hou bowed again and said in a

deep voice, "Holy Lord, don’t say you only give the minister three days. Even

if you give him more time, the minister can’t guarantee that the rumors will

be calmed down. To find out who is behind the scenes."

"In order to quell the rumors as soon as possible, the black hand behind the

scenes will be brought to justice, the ministers resign, and the sage, please

choose another talent to take charge of the Imperial City Division!"

The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, and without a clue, the way Yan

Mei can think of is to cast the net and try his luck. This method is all about

fighting luck. If you are lucky, maybe you will have a clue the next day. If

you are not lucky, when does the ghost know when there is a clue?

Since it is destined not to keep the title, it is better to take the

initiative.

Hearing Zhen Junhou's words, Emperor Yongping on the dragon chair was

dumbfounded.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn't Yan Mei be ordered to withdraw, and then

desperately to solve the case?

But now, Yan Mei directly resigned.

What is this for?

Are you demonstrating?

Zhen Junhou was kind, but he overestimated Yongping's ingenuity.

"Zhenjunhou, you are presumptuous!"

Emperor Yongping said angrily, "Don't you think that besides you, I can't find

anyone to take charge of the Imperial City Division?"

"Ignore the prince, and become a minister in vain!"

"I am very disappointed!"

"In this case, I will seize the title of your marquis marquis!"

When Emperor Yongping finished these words in one breath, Yan Mei was stupid.

Special, does he mean that?

He is purely kind!

Zhen Junhou feels wronged, but the matter has reached this point, what can he

do?

After Emperor Yongping took the title of the Marquis of Zhenjun in a rage, all

the civil and military men of the Manchu dynasty kept their eyes open, as if

nothing happened to them.

Standing in the team, Yan Jing was also silent at the moment.

Of course, his gaze still fell on his elder brother, and instead of regretting

in his heart, he felt relieved.

Yan Jing instinctively felt that Datang was about to cause trouble. It was

easy for him to resign, and he had sufficient reasons. But as long as his

eldest brother is still a Zhenjunhou, he shouldn't even think about staying

out of the matter. And now, his elder brother has been seized of the title,

and everything is just right.
