779th Yunnan Mufu
The face of the black robe changed: "Lu Bing, what do you mean by this, are you saying that I, Emperor Jianwen, have not won the hearts of scholars and generals?" Then why is Lord Qi, Lord Huang, and Lord Shang Shutie of the Ministry of War, all of them loyal to the first emperor, and the great Confucian Fang Xiaoru, even if he exterminated the ten clans for the evil thief Zhu Di, he scolded the traitor and died, aren't these people's hearts? ”
Lu Bing shook his head: "How many people can there be?" What's more, Qi, Huang, Fang and others were originally important ministers of Emperor Jianwen, and they instigated Emperor Jianwen to carry out the policy of cutting feudal domains, and it was inevitable that they would be executed after the defeat, even if they begged for mercy, it was impossible to live, so it was better to leave a reputation as a loyal minister. As for the scholars and scholars in the world, if you look at the Manchu civil and military affairs of the Chengzu Dynasty, most of them were retained by the officials of the previous dynasty, and every imperial examination was also carried out normally, but there was no scholar who let the officials of the Chengzu Dynasty not do it, so they should not be called. ”
The white eyebrows in the black robe were raised angrily, but he couldn't speak, after all, the iron-like facts and complex human nature made him unable to refute.
Lu Bing said coldly: "Talking about the previous things, just so that I don't make the same mistakes in the future, it's okay to talk about these things in the future, if you really believe in that, it's over, just like I, Lu Bing, have such a close relationship with the current saint, but don't you follow the two of you thieves to plot here?" ”
Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "Oh, so Lord Lu deliberately deviated from the current emperor and joined our side?" ”
Lu Bing's eyes flashed: "No, I didn't say that, Cangxing." I've made it clear to you that you haven't made up your mind to make up your mind. What can I say? Now that Feng Wu is dead, the relationship between you and me that could have been married has also been broken. In this case, it is even more impossible for me to give you any promises, and now that I haven't reported you, it has already been counted as giving you face, what do you want? ”
The corners of Li Cangxing's mouth hooked: "Lord Lu, don't be too excited, I didn't say what I want you to promise, you are willing to show up here today, instead of bringing troops to arrest you." It is the best indication of your attitude, rest assured, our agreement is still the same, and we will not embarrass you, even if I really have an incident in the future, it will not implicate you, and you can judge the timing for yourself when the time comes, and decide whether to join us. ”
The face of the black robe changed: "Cangxing, what do you mean." Don't you want to be soldiers? It's not the same as we agreed to. ”
Li Cangxing turned to the black robe: "Black robe, I said that I would help you get started, but I didn't say that I would participate in it, if I get revenge." After destroying the Demon Sect, Yan Shifan and that inner ghost, then I have no intention of fighting for the world. What you want is nothing more than Taizu's tips, and it will be given to you when the time comes. ”
A hint of joy appeared in the eyes of the black robe: "You have to talk about it!" ”
Li Cangxing nodded: "You are too superstitious to believe in this edict of Taizu." If you don't think about the hearts of the people in the world, you can't do it. If I can take revenge, then this thing is of no use to me, and it doesn't hurt to give it to you. ”
The black robe asked, "In that case, why don't you give it to me now, it won't affect your revenge." Wouldn't it be better if we were all right? ”
Li Cangxing shook his head: "Not yet, after all, I am facing Yan Shifan and the Demon Sect he supports, and there is that terrible inner ghost in the secret, in case the emperor finally decides to support Yan Shifan and send troops to exterminate us, then my Black Dragon Society will only have to take the road of rebellion, and when the time comes, I will use this Taizu Trick, black robe, if you take this thing now, start an incident in advance, and give Yan Shifan an excuse to deal with me after you are eliminated, I can't take this risk now." ”
The black robe said angrily: "Li Cangxing, are you too self-righteous, you can raise troops, and if I raise troops in black robes, I will definitely fail?" What is the truth of this!? ”
Li Cangxing said with a smile: "Okay, I didn't say that I died, I just said that there is such a possibility, black robe, you don't have to be so excited, don't worry, now the truce between me and Leng Tianxiong is just over two years, and in the past two years, I have accumulated some wealth through the overseas trade in the southeast, whether it is to deal with the Demon Sect or to help you in the future, it will be beneficial to you, what are you worried about?" ”
Lu Bing sneered: "The two of you really regard the world as their own private property, and they are strategizing, don't you want to think about my Jinyiwei's position?" If I don't think you have any chance of succeeding, it won't help you, but will help the emperor to eliminate you with all his might. ”
The black robe smiled "hehe": "Lord Lu, just what you said to us here today, what you planned, as soon as we report to the emperor, you don't want to live, now we are grasshoppers on a rope, and there is no need to say such things." ”
Li Cangxing waved his hand: "No, black robe, only the three of me are present today, Lord Lu has thought this clearly, and he will show up, just based on what you and I say, it is impossible to prove him." ”
The white-robed white eyebrows raised: "Then he recruited you into Jinyiwei, and tried to let his daughter Feng Wu marry you, these are always facts that cannot be denied, if something happens to Cangxing and you are charged with rebellion, how can you get away with it?!" ”
Lu Bing's face changed slightly, and he was about to speak, but Li Cangxing said coldly: "At that time, Lord Lu will naturally preemptively arrest us first to show loyalty to the emperor, right?" ”
Lu Bing nodded: "Yes, if your defeat is decided, or I don't think there is a possibility of success, I can only do this." ”
The black robe gritted his teeth: "Lord Lu, you are really invincible forever." ”
Lu Bing smiled slightly: "This is exactly the survival skill I must have in the officialdom, now I can't judge whether you can succeed or not, so I won't interfere in your affairs, but I still have to advise you, when you are not sure, don't make things too big, and it will be difficult for me to clean up, especially you, black robe." ”
A trace of anger flashed in the black-robed eyes, and he disappeared for a moment, and then laughed: "Lord Lu, Cangxing should have told you, we have no plans to start an incident in the past few years, and the Japanese in the southeast have just been pacified, and Cangxing also needs time to run this place and accumulate wealth." Tidy up people's hearts, now our common goal is the hidden inner ghost. ”
Lu Bing's eyes flashed with murder. This strong hatred made Li Cangxing feel a chill in his heart, only to hear a little murderous in his cold voice: "This dog thief." Seducing my daughter astray and disrupting my whole plan for so many years, I will kill her as soon as possible! I just wanted to hear what you plan to do with this thief, which is why I've been lurking so far. ”
Li Cangxing thought of Feng Wu's death, and his heart was also sad: "Lord Lu, although I have never talked about liking you, I have always felt guilty about Feng Wu, whether you believe it or not. Before this Shaolin Conference, I really wanted to marry her, and if it weren't for this accident, I don't think we would be in such a relationship now. ”
Lu Bing waved his hand: "That's it, Sky Wolf, I don't blame you for this matter, if you really want to complain, I only blame that damn inner ghost for seducing Feng Wu and taking advantage of her love for you." Let her do something stupid, Feng Wu originally just wanted to trick you into dying to Mu Lanxiang, but I didn't expect you to be so affectionate to your little sister, one wrong step. The wrong step, that's why I have been hiding from you for so many years, and finally I can't extricate myself. Only one death can apologize, even if the bastard doesn't shoot her. I don't think Feng Wu will survive. ”
Li Cangxing was silent, and he often asked himself these days. If Feng Wu doesn't die, will he still marry her according to the agreement? It was a question that perhaps even he could not answer.
Lu Bing's eyes just now showed a rare trace of sadness, and in a flash, he turned to his usual coldness: "A thousand mistakes, it's all that damn inner ghost, I calm down after I go back, maybe it is the key to find out when Feng Wu connects with this inner ghost, since this inner ghost has the ability to instruct Feng Wu before Mu Lanxiang's wedding, and can also pass on to her the information that you Li Cangxing has reappeared in the rivers and lakes, faster than me, which means that he has long been in contact with Feng Wu, I have to check the years when Feng Wu was undercover, When did you get out of my control, and what was unusual. ”
The black robe suddenly said: "Lu Bing, can you find out this kind of old thing?" Besides, Feng Wu has always been undercover in Emei, and that inner ghost is hiding in Wudang, how can you check this? ”
Lu Bing sneered: "That inner ghost can win over Feng Wu, it must be under the banner of the wolf to get close to Feng Wu, if it weren't for the wolf, Feng Wu would not have been able to fall for him and embark on the road of betraying me, even if she fell in love with the wolf at first sight, it was also after the Moon Gorge, I just need to check the record of her going to Wudang during this time, I can have a general impression." It's only been three or four years, and I don't believe that there is anything that I Lu Bing can't find out. ”
Li Cangxing nodded: "Yes, Feng Wu really likes me, but I'm afraid that I will drive out of Wudang and go to Emei, or if I go a little forward, it is also what happened when I was in Sanqingguan, during that time, Feng Wu, that is, Liu Ruyan of Emei, as Emei's diplomatic envoy, visited various factions everywhere, so I think that inner ghost may have taken advantage of her visit to Wudang to connect with her." ”
The black robe shook his head: "Why wait for Feng Wu to go to Wudang?" Instead of that inner ghost going to find Feng Wu by himself? ”
Li Cangxing sighed: "If my guess is correct, this inner ghost has been staying in Wudang for many years, and Wudang's every move is something he has to master at any time, especially the Purple Light Dao Master, he must ensure that he can always control it, otherwise his conspiracy plan will be completely bankrupt." Feng Wu was afraid that this person would die of fear before he was alive, saying that the strength of our entire Demon Slayer Alliance plus Jinyi Wei was not his opponent, it was difficult for me to imagine how strong this person's strength was and how huge his power was. ”
Lu Bingyi gritted his teeth: "No matter how strong this person's power is, I have to dig him out and avenge Feng Wu, I heard your plan just now, this idea is good, you can't wait for this inner ghost to be exposed, you must take the initiative to attack and force him to show himself." Next, we will take the elimination of this inner ghost as a common task, I will continue to look for clues to this inner ghost here in Wudang Emei, and Tianwolf, you go to Miaojiang in Yunnan and open the situation from Wan Gu Gate. ”
Li Cangxing nodded: "Okay, then let's do both." ”
Lu Bing's eyes sparkled, and he suddenly said: "This time you go to Yunnan, in addition to the Jianghu sect in Miaojiang, Yunnan Muwangfu, I'm afraid you also need to deal with it carefully." ”
Li Cangxing was thinking about this question just now, and he asked in a deep voice: "Mu Wangfu has been hereditary in Yunnan for two hundred years, and it has been guarded there since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Is there such a thing? ”
Lu Bing nodded: "Yes, this is the power of hereditary replacement." Mu Ying was a general back then, but she was willing to settle down in Yunnan. In the past two hundred years, the court has been able to be submissive, surpassing any prince of the clan, but even so, the Ming emperors of all dynasties have to monitor the Mu Palace, after all, even their own clan princes want to rebel, not to mention the foreign surname Mu who seized Yunnan. ”
Li Cangxing laughed: "This must be handed over to you Jinyiwei." ”
Lu Bing's sword eyebrows raised: "Yes, this kind of monitoring is none other than our Jinyi Guard, and Mu Wangfu is no exception." Cangxing, this time when you go to Yunnan, when you need it, you should connect with our Jinyi guards, so that it is convenient to walk on the official face. ”
Li Cangxing was about to reply, but suddenly heard Lu Bing's voice ringing in his ears: "Sky Wolf, can you hear me?" ”
Li Cangxing's heart moved, and he immediately said, "Well, this." Is it necessary? His mouth began to deal with Lu Bing, who also had a match, but secretly shook his pleura and said secretly: "What do you want to hide from the black robe?" ”
Lu Bing said coldly: "My Jinyi Guard has been in Yunnan for more than a hundred years, and it is impossible for the secret agent left behind to say that he will give this black robe." ”
Li Cangxing knew that this was the reason, and he was still talking to Lu Bing. Occasionally, he would say a sentence or two with a black robe, but his mind was all on this secret language: "Oh, so you Jinyiwei's secret agents in Yunnan have also been deployed for a long time?" Presumably a little earlier than your green mountains and clear water plan. ”
Lu Bing had no expression on his face. But there was a hint of disdain in the secret words: "Earlier? When I didn't enter the Jinyi Guard, this spy was already in storage. It's also not accurate to say that, this Jinyi Guard's secret agent. It was arranged there as early as the founding of the Ming Dynasty, almost two hundred years from now. ”
Rao is Li Cangxing is well-informed, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, his face changed, making the black robe look a little alert, he hurriedly laughed, and then said a few irrelevant words to the black robe, but secretly said to Lu Bingmi: "So, when Mu Ying entered Yunnan, you Jinyi Wei sent someone to follow and monitor?" ”
Lu Bing nodded: "Yes, Emperor Taizu is well versed in the way of moderation of military generals, and he is not at ease with the generals who lead heavy troops outside, and they are all monitored, and the monitors are often the most trusted generals of these generals, the situation in Yunnan is relatively special, the original Meng Yuan and Dali Duan's strength is also very strong, Mu Ying is also in command of 100,000 male soldiers, once there is something in the world, it is very easy to separate and stand on his own, so the difficulty of monitoring him is far more than the supervision army and ears and eyes and ears temporarily sent to other generals. ”
Li Cangxing chased the secret and said: "Then how can we keep this monitor from being discovered in the past two hundred years?" Could it be that the family is watching from generation to generation? ”
Lu Bing smiled slightly: "Yes, Mu Ying has four generals around him, all of whom are personal guards who saved his life on the battlefield, and in the past, since the Duan clan in Dali, there are four major guards around the emperor, which means that the emperor guards the Quartet for thousands of generations, and when he arrives at Mu Wangfu, he has also become the four generals of Liu Su Fangbai." ”
Li Cangxing muttered secretly: "Liu Su Fangbai? Are these the first personal guards to follow Mu Ying into Yunnan? ”
Lu Bing shook his head: "Liu, Su, Fang, these three families are, the Bai family is the local clan in Yunnan, seeing that after Mu Ying's army entered Yunnan, the patriarch also sent his son Bai Bingde to serve with the army in order to protect his family, this person is strong in martial arts, and he is also familiar with the assassination of various factions in Yunnan, the method of poisoning, thanks to his sacrificial protection, he blocked the assassination of Mu Ying by the master of Wan Gu Gate, but he was blind in one eye, with this great achievement, Mu Ying promoted him to a personal general, and the three families are on an equal footing, In the end, he occupied the position of the four major guards. ”
Li Cangxing sighed softly and said secretly: "So, the Bai family is not your people?" He is a native of Yunnan, so he won't have anything to do with you Jinyiwei. ”
Lu Bingmi said: "No, this Bai family is a long-term chess piece that our Jinyi Wei has planted in Yunnan. The Bai family's allegiance is not to Mu Ying personally, but to our Ming Dynasty, just before Bai Bingde served in the Mu Ying army, his brother Bai Bingguang also secretly came to Nanjing, met with Emperor Hongwu, and presented him with the Bai family's ancestral rhino staff and clan roster to show his loyalty. ”
Li Cangxing replied: "This Bai family is really thoughtful, no one would have thought that a local family in Yunnan like the Bai family would actually become the emperor's eyeliner." ”
Lu Bing smiled slightly: "So Emperor Hongwu accepted the scepter and secretly granted the position of the hereditary deputy commander-in-chief of the Bai family's guards, so that every generation of their family's people in the Mu Palace's Mansion would receive this position, so as to be the eyes and ears of the Ming Dynasty in the Mu Palace." ”
"In addition, Liu Lancheng, the first guard leader to enter Yunnan with Mu Ying, is also a chess piece that Emperor Hongwu arranged in Mu Wangfu early, he is Emperor Taizu's hometown, and the old mother and young son were raised by Emperor Hongwu, so he secretly joined Jinyiwei, this person saved Mu Ying several times on the battlefield, and Mu Ying had no doubt about him and entrusted him with the important task of escort captain. After Mu Ying pacified Yunnan, he also became the Sima of Mu Wangfu, the head of the four major guards, but secretly he was still a member of the Jinyi Weilong group who monitored Mu Wangfu.
