Chapter 141: I'm so ashamed
Chapter 141: I'm so ashamed
"Xu Wuxiang's son Xu Tianen went to the sea to kill pirates."
After reading the secret report in his hand, Han Lingshan frowned and said to Hong Chengchou.
Hong Chengchou seemed to be sleeping in a wide chair, without raising his eyelids, as if what Han Lingshan was talking about was an insignificant matter.
"Long Mouth Island is a nice place to stay......"
It took a long time for Hong Chengchou's voice to come out of his thick beard.
"Your Majesty's wish not to allow us to develop our personal power in the Ming Dynasty has been revealed."
"Your Majesty's desire for us to become the Ming Dynasty's heart has also been revealed."
"Your Majesty's desire for us to bury our bones abroad has been revealed."
"Your Majesty's intention to support the Ming Dynasty to annex us in the future has been revealed."
"Your Majesty's killing of the nobles, the Xun clan, and the heart of the great clan have been revealed."
"This is the only way for His Majesty to give us people to live."
ββββ
"These people have been regarded as aliens by His Majesty!"
Hong Chengchou didn't speak, as soon as he spoke, his words were like a fire burning on the grassland.
Han Lingshan sneered and said, "We are aliens ourselves!" If the people are a flock of lambs, we are tigers and leopards, if the people are a flock of birds, we are vultures, if the people are a flock of small fish, we are giant sharks in the sea.
Since it is an outlier, then separate.
Lambs are in the company of birds and birds, and small fish, and we are in the company of tigers and leopards, vultures, and giant sharks. β
Hong Chengchou looked up to the sky and sighed: "How unfair." β
Han Lingshan said: "You can live until now, it is already Your Majesty's mercy." β
Hong Chengchou said: "You are the same! β
Han Lingshan smiled and said, "I'm different. β
Hong Chengchou said: "What's the difference? β
Han Lingshan laughed and said, "I can run!" β
After saying that, the two laughed together.
It was obviously an extremely sad thing, but it was so much fun to say it at this time.
After laughing for a long time, Hong Chengchou kept coughing, and it took a long time to calm down.
"The wisdom of the people has not yet opened, so His Majesty wants to expel all the wise people such as me, is this the reason?"
"I slaughtered a temple before, and the abbot in the temple said something very interesting, he said that the new dynasty began to slaughter monks, and the era of the end of the Dharma has come.
I asked him, what is the age of the end of the law?
He said: moral decay, loss of justice, abduction, adultery and plunder, the poor raise their swords to survive, the rich build cities to protect themselves, the Dharma is destroyed, the Tao does not exist, the war starts, the ecology is extinguished, the monks and the Tao escape, the beasts go down the mountain, the fox and the demon sit in the hall, the demons are rampant, the Three Realms are turbulent, the three-dimensional door of the demon world is wide open, the two worlds of yin and yang are out of balance, the extraterritorial heavenly demons are demagoguery, and the era of killing is coming, which is the era of the end of the law.
I asked him if I could avoid the end of the Dharma if I didn't kill him.
The old monk said: The first sign of the coming of the end of the Dharma era is the death of those who believe in Buddhism, and the more they worship Buddhism, the faster they will die.
I asked him, "What's the explanation?"
The old monk said: Because it is the world of gods and demons, the world of gods and demons does not allow the existence of Buddhas.
However, the world without the Buddha is precisely the world where the Buddha is full of heavens, and countless pairs of compassionate eyes look down on the common beings, watching them kill, watching them walk into destruction.
Without the Buddha, the gods and demons will rule the demons with demons, and the killing will be endless, and the sea of blood will be monstrous, and it will eventually tend to be destroyed.
After the gods and demons destroyed the world, the spring grass was reborn, the flowers were in full bloom, and the world returned to chaos, with no good and no evil, which was the realm of the Buddha.
After the Buddha came out, the society was clear, the people were happy, and the four seas were peaceful! The Three Realms are stable, and the gods and demons are in place! β
"You mean to say that we are the Buddhas of the end of the Dharma era?"
"Don't think too much of yourself, we are a group of people who believe in Buddha."
Hong Chengchou drank a glass of wine and nodded: "It seems that there is a little truth, by the way, which famous mountain did you kill?" β
Han Lingshan said: "The immovable king of the Maitreya Temple." β
"Oh, Maitreyaβ"
"Although it is a cult, but I think this statement is very reasonable, so I talked with the body of this Fudo Ming King Bodhisattva for two days, and in the end he did not save me, and I killed the monks of the whole temple and burned their temple.
The body of the Bodhisattva of the Immovable Ming King cursed in the flames that I would not die well, and Maitreya would definitely punish me.
I stayed in the ruins for three more days, and I did not see Maitreya, nor did the heavenly punishment fall, only the spring rain and the peach blossoms. β
Hong Chengchou smiled: "What do you mean by telling me these words?" β
Han Lingshan laughed and said, "As a Hong Chengchou who has already relocated his net worth and life to the sea, do you think it is appropriate to attack His Majesty with such sad and indignant words?" β
Hong Chengchou said with a smile: "After I die, I will always be buried in the ancestral grave, I am speaking for my corpse, not for my life, life is free at sea, and the corpse is rotting and stinky in the coffin, don't you think this is very appropriate?" β
"Your Majesty actually hopes that you can go to Yaozhou as a minister, but what about you, hiding in Guangzhou and pretending to be sick, there is no way, Your Majesty has no choice but to ask Shi Kefa, although this person is also a good candidate, but I know that Your Majesty has been waiting for you to volunteer."
Hong Chengchou saw that Han Lingshan began to speak in his heart, so he sighed and said; "I chose not to go to Yaozhou, I have nothing to do with the government, and I didn't even think about the balance of pros and cons, the reason why I didn't go to Yaozhou was because of the remoteness of Yaozhou, and there was no other reason.
I'm old, and I don't have the calloused, ragged ambition to open up a new world.
As you can see, in front of you is an old horseman, an old horseman who likes to enjoy the beauty of alcohol. β
Han Lingshan nodded and said: "Also, the reason why this world can be pacified is because of your credit, and now, it is natural for you to lie on the merit book and enjoy it."
Since you have made up your mind to enjoy it, then enjoy it to the end, don't enjoy the strange thoughts of what to flat, what to destroy, and what to create halfway, it will not be good. β
Hong Chengchou smiled but said nothing.
It's just that when Han Lingshan got up to say goodbye, he seemed to be talking to himself: "Are you really sure that the emperor won't kill you?" β
Han Lingshan stopped and looked at Qingtian and said: "I believe that this day is a blue sky, I believe that the fire is hot, I believe that you should sleep when you are tired, you can still open your eyes when you fall asleep, and the sun is still shining." β
After that, he left Hong Chengchou's official residence in great strides.
He waited at the pavilion for three days.
On the fourth day, he got the fold of Hong Chengchou's beggar bones, and after seeing the folds, he immediately took out an emperor's seal from his arms, took a sip of water vapor on the seal, and then covered the seal heavily on the fold of Hong Chengchou's beggar bones.
Looking at the fold of the seal stamped with red and gorgeous in front of him, Han Lingshan changed into his official uniform, held a bright yellow holy decree in his hand, and took the twelve officials of Guangzhou Mansion to step into Hong Chengchou's official residence again to read the will.
On the seventh day of the second month of the tenth year of China, Hong Chengchou returned to his hometown as the first vice minister of the Prime Minister's Office, and the emperor persuaded him to stay three times.
The emperor felt that Hong Chengchou was a great Ming Rong horse for half his life, with outstanding merits, and he was given the title of Duke of Haining, with three thousand households, and one thousand miles of soil......
"I thought it would be after next fall."
At the banquet set up by Hong Chengchou to thank the angel Han Lingshan, Hong Chengchou was extremely depressed and said to Han Lingshan.
Seeing that there were only the two of them in the study, Han Lingshan took out the emperor's seal from his arms and shook it in front of Hong Chengchou's eyes, and immediately took it back into his arms.
"Is that urgent?"
"Your Majesty is anxious, for fear that you will not be able to have a good result."
"You are in charge of the emperor's seal, this is arrogance, under the blazing fire, you are not afraid of death?"
"I don't feel this way, after all, when His Majesty threw the seal to me, he was burning the fire and boiling incense."
"Do you trust Yun Zhao so much?"
"If he trusts me so much, why can't I trust him in the same way?"
"Well, you're not going to end well."
Han Lingshan looked at Hong Chengchou gloomily and said, "You remind me of that Fudo Ming King again." β
Hong Chengchou lowered his head depressedly and said softly: "Can't a thousand miles of land be in Annan?" β
Han Lingshan shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty has just appointed the new prefect of Annan Mansion in accordance with the documents of the Prime Minister's Mansion. β
"What about Siam?"
"Coincidentally, the appointment of the governor of Siam has just passed the congress."
"There's no old man in Malacca, right?"
Han Lingshan took a sip of wine and stood up and said, "If I were you, at this time, I should take your twenty-six concubines in Annana, the eleven godsons you received, and the eleven thousand four hundred and twenty-seven house slaves you bought to live on Haining Island for six years that your Hong family has built for six years, and develop the island." β
"Haining Island is not a good place to stay outside of Malacca!"
"It's not bad, it's close to India, so it's convenient for you to do business."
"Don't you feel ashamed to treat an old minister like this?"
"I am indeed a little ashamed, I originally proposed to Your Majesty to kill you, but as a result, Your Majesty still rejected my suggestion after pondering for a long time, which makes me feel very ashamed, if I had told Your Majesty to kill your whole family, Your Majesty might have retreated and only killed you."
"Did Sun Chuanting end up like me?"
"It's different, people's old grandsons are also begging bones, but they have entered the presidium of the congress."
"Did he betray the old man?"
"No, people didn't read your letter, they just threw it in the brazier and burned it."
Hong Chengchou sighed and said, "They are all smart people." β
Han Lingshan frowned and said, "There is one thing I have always wanted to ask Mr. Hong, what are you going to do when you accept eleven Annan people as righteous sons?" β
Hong Chengchou said with a smile: "Because Jin Hu refuses to be my righteous son, I have to accept a little useful person, but it is not all without gain, Zhu Yuzhuo has become my righteous daughter, now, are you going to kill Zhu Yuzhuo?"
Also, the six families in Zhu Ming's old royal family are also secretly following me, are you also going to kill them together? β
Han Lingshan was silent.
Hong Chengchou nodded and said, "It seems that he is going to be killed." β
Han Lingshan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is not as sinister as you think, those people are now developing the island." β
"Yun Zhao would be so short-sighted and merciful?"
Han Lingshan looked at the sea outside the window and said: "There are less than five hundred people, to develop an island on the hot equator, Zhongxing Zhu Ming, even I have to admire Zhu Yuwu's ambition."
However, she looked desperate, and before going to the island, she handed over her daughter to General Jinhu to raise. β
Hong Chengchou lowered his head and pondered for a moment, drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, sat up straight and said, "Come on!" β
Han Lingshan gritted his teeth and said, "This is the point I don't understand the most, Your Majesty seems to have forgotten to give you a killing order!" β
