Chapter 141 Cao Zhenchun, who was forced to surrender

A carriage slowly drove...

When I stopped at the village outside the Bangyuan Cave, almost all the villages hung white banners, and most of the church members wore plain white silk, with a sad expression. The old man who came down from the carriage had long beards and round faces, had a slightly fat body, and a slightly protruding abdomen. There was a money-copper robe in the inner room, and a crane cloud purple shirt coat. He walked along the way, and his body was tall and graceful.

But at this moment, when he looked at Zhuangzi, his heart skipped a beat.

After crossing the yard gate, the old man asked the door, "Who else is here?"

"When Mr. Zu's words, the stone leader and Master Deng are all here. The eldest son and the second son and the leader Li are still on the way." The door replied.

Zu Shiyuan nodded solemnly, turned around and went into the inner room. When the guards on both sides of the middle road of the courtyard saw him coming, they looked over and gave a tribute.

The old man responded little by little, and his attitude was very kind.

After passing through the courtyard, I came to the threshold of the main hall. Someone was dressed in plain clothes for him, tidied up his collar and appearance, and then he waved his hands back and gave way out. He stepped in, walked through the hall, and walked in. The syllables of the monk chanting scriptures came, and then the mourning hall was in sight.

On the altar, a square box is placed alone on it. One of the Ming sect doctrines is to be buried naked, simple and pure, and not to be extravagant. Now, it has a little inhumane flavor in funerals.

The ancestor went over and lit a stick of incense, comforted Fang Ruyi, who was crying for a few words, and then left to the wing room. He was a pragmatic person, and he sighed at most a few times for the dead creatures. At the critical moment, the matter in the teachings was the primary priority.

However, when he pushed open the door, the inside was already in full swing.

.....

".... Master, you must seek justice for Fang Jie. He is still so young and has a great martial arts skills. He was plotted to death by someone. He died so cowardly. I, Shi Bao, felt frustrated in my heart. Those imperial dog officials could not beat him openly, so they came to secretly. I think I'd just go back on it..."

The man named Shi Bao's eyes were red, his teeth were about to break, and he shouted, shouted.

On the couch facing him, Fang La lay in tears and her face turned pale. She thought she had not yet come back to her senses from the blow, and when she heard Shi Bao complaining generously in the room, she couldn't help but feel angry and clenched her fists.

"What do you think?" Fang La looked at Master Bao Daoyi and Deng Yuanjue standing in the house.

The wooden door was pushed open, and Zu Shi walked in far away. Fang La's eyes lit up slightly and he kept saying, "Mr. Zu is here, let me tell you about the matter."

"Needless to say, my subordinates already know."

After all, Zu Shiyuan was over fifty years old and worked diligently since he was working. He was respected by everyone in the church. So he sat in front of the bed and gave some comments on the matter.

"I am also deeply saddened by Fang Jie's nephew's death. But if I raise an army like this, I will be a little impatient. Before the leader was in seclusion last time, Mr. Lou discussed it together. We only have one chance, that is, when the court advances in the north, we can do our best in one battle, sweep across the south of the Yangtze River, and rule the Wu Dynasty with the Wu Dynasty."

He paused and said slowly, "If we kill now, we will not have enough preparations in advance, and we will take down several states at most. However, when the Wu Dynasty comes to its senses, the army will go south, so that everything we do will be in vain."

"What should I do? Let Xiaojie die so unknown?" Although Shi Bao is brave and resourceful, he is also on the battlefield of fighting. He usually acts with a hot temper. He shouted, "We are people in the world, and we will not take revenge overnight."

No one who was present listened to his words, and they were all thinking about Zu Shiyuan's words. Deng Yuanjue, who was beside him, frowned and said, "No matter what, it is wrong to kill my Ming Cult's children, but Shi Bao's words were too anxious, and this matter was a bit difficult to deal with."

On the bed, Fang La got off the ground. Although she was weak, she did not look sick in front of all the subordinates. Moreover, as the lord of a sect, after recovering from the initial attack, she naturally thought about the overall situation. He calmly and suppressed: "What Mr. Zu said makes sense. Now the situation in the Ming Cult has been opened, but he cannot fight head-on with the imperial army. He can only lurk and wait for the opportunity. I would like to avenge Fang Jie more than any of you, but now, don't mention it again..."

"I still want to avenge Xiaojie!" Shi Bao roared.

"Shut up--"

Fang La turned around and looked cold, and said sternly: "I have said that, don't mention this matter again-"

"Okay, okay, let's say less." Deng Yuanjue was in the middle, "I want me to say that this revenge can really be slow. After all, we still need to consider more than 200,000 church members in the church. If we rush over, it will be easy to fight in the front, but we will be in trouble later. The Wu Dynasty is not full of wine bags."

Shi Bao leaned against the wall with frustration and was still angry.

Outside the door, another person came in.

"If you don't knock on the door, you're looking for death... Uh?"

Shi Bao roared angrily, trying to smash the stool, his hand stopped in the air, and then put it down, "Mr. Lou?"

An old man came in with white hair and beard, thin cheeks, and a goatee under his chin. He looked over and was stern and majestic. He looked at everyone in the room, raised his hand to Fang La first, and said, "I already know what you are discussing, but I'm afraid I'm going to stand on Shi Bao's side this time."

"Hmm?" Everyone was suspicious.

Lou Minzhong sighed slightly and explained: "I just received a reward from a spy in the city. The head of the official who came here today was thrown into the county government under the name of the Ming Cult. It is estimated that the servant who delivered the news is already on his way to Hangzhou."

"It's Zheng Shou... the magistrate with one ear..." Bao Daoyi said in surprise.

Lou Minzhong nodded, "His body was also found dead on the mountain road by his brothers in the sect."

"It's such a scheming... This is forcing us to revolt early." Zu Shiyuan stood up and walked. He said: "In this case, I'm afraid I have to act in advance. The crime of killing officials has fallen on our Ming Cult, and we can't even dispose of it. In addition, the emperor of Wu Chao must have taken action against us."

"I have more than 200,000 people in my sect. I'm afraid it won't work if I want to break the whole thing into pieces to avoid this time. To be stable, before the court targeted us, it suddenly attacked the government and occupied several states to form a horn force. It was a city to support soldiers. As long as it resisted the imperial court's attacks several times, it would not work, it was just a little risky."

Lou Minzhong is analyzing.

But Shi Bao laughed a few times, "Then you can discuss it slowly, I will prepare and train troops."

After saying that, he threw the door out like crazy.

Fang La shook her sleeves and looked ugly, "This idiot."

…………………………………

In early May, the initiator of the long plan turned around and returned north.

In the courtyard, the sun shines on the room in Chuchen. Bai Ning was served by Chunlan and Dongju, and dressed out of the door. He looked back at Xifu, and was still rolling around with the quilt in confusion. He asked the two maids to go out first and reminded him: "Along the way, the car is exhausted, let the wife have a good rest. Unless she wakes up, don't go in and disturb me."

"My maid knows." The two maids responded immediately.

Then, Bai Ning walked through the corridor and heard the sound of a sword waving faintly in the side courtyard, and looked for it. He stood under the crescent arch and looked at the side courtyard. Linglong, the little girl was dancing a small wooden sword and imitating the movements of Yuhuatian on the other side, with a serious expression on her face.

Bai Ning didn't make any noise to disturb him, and just watched quietly for a while.

Then, a man came to report, "The Lord, Zheng Shou has already given the title of head, and his head has been thrown into the county government, everything is in the plan."

"Yeah, go down."

After retiring his subordinates, Bai Ning returned to the inner hall not long after. While he was having breakfast, another man came to report that there was a team outside who came to pay homage to the governor.

"who?"

"The leader seems to be the eunuch named Cao Zhenchun."

"Let him come in, if he hasn't eaten breakfast, let him come and eat together."

………….

Even so, the people who came to pay homage did not dare to do this in the end. After Bai Ning used up his breakfast, he went to the study. The old eunuch with a round face with rouge was waiting for a long time. When he saw someone coming, he immediately smiled flatteringly and bowed, "I have met the chief supervisor."

"Get up."

Bai Ning walked in front of him and couldn't help but feel curious, "How could you appear here? Come and say to the governor."

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhenchun immediately bowed again, "If you go back to the chief executive, I will go out to do business and ask for a prescription."

"Prescription?" Bai Ning sneered, sat down on the chair and looked down at him, "It is fake to ask for the prescription, and it is true to let you die, right? With your wisdom, it is not impossible to see, why was he driven out like a dog?"

Cao Zhenchun suddenly felt panicked on his face, and he knelt forward two steps, "I hope the chief general will help him. Then Li Jinzhong flattered Concubine Ru, and his clever words made him look very popular with the officials. He happened to have such a thankless errand, so he found a reason to send his servants out. But now Zheng Shou was killed by Fang La's people again. Not only did he return without success, he might have to be punished when he went back, and he also asked the chief general to take him in."

"Let me think about it, are they using the reason that "Eunuch Cao has been with the government for a long time, is loyal to the country, and is skilled in dealing with people and is skillful and capable in dealing with people?" Bai Ning stared at him in a sarcastic manner, his tone seemed to be joking, but there was no smile on his lips.

"The chief manager is really smart and wise." Cao Zhenchun knelt on the ground, touching the ground with his forehead.

Bai Ning stood up and walked over, raised his right foot, and reached a cloud-stepping shoe in front of him. Cao Zhengchun raised his eyes slightly and knew what it meant. He quickly moved forward and took a small step, held it in both hands, and kissed it on the tip of his shoes.

"Do you know--"

Bai Ning did not look at him, but stared at the green tree rockery outside the study, "Do you know why you failed? Because you don't match your ambitions."

Under him, Cao Zhenchun made no sound.

Bai Ning took back his right foot, returned to the chair, pointed at him and said, "It's OK to enter our Dongchang factory. But write down a copy of your Tiangang Boy's Works and hand it over to our supervisor for reference."

"If you don't want to." Bai Ning leaned forward and stared at him with cold eyes.

He said word by word: "I am ready to do things later."

On the contrary, I thought Cao Zhenchun would be a little unwilling, but now it seems that he looks overjoyed and said that he would write down "Tiangang Yuanqi Gong" later and take it as his own condemnation.

Looking at the old eunuch who happily went over to polish the ink, Bai Ning felt the first time that the man named Li Jinzhong seemed a little tricky.

"When I was away, I actually flattered Helian Ruxin."
