Chapter 178: The Nerd Touches the Stunned
Carefully put away the cloth, Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but slander Zhu Yuanzhang in his heart, people write books, you also write books, people write on paper, you don't think it's solemn enough, you just use cloth to write, this paper has long been turned into ashes after decades, but you still have to leave a piece of evidence.
However, the appearance of this recital, as well as the secret room of this Buddhist hall, also proves that Tianyi's Tianxuanzi has a high status in Mingjiao.
The internal organization of the Ming Sect is extremely tight, and for Liu Chengfeng, even if those little minions take it, it is useless, and the real breakthrough is in people like Tianxuanzi.
With Tianxuanzi in hand, things will be much easier.
It's just that I don't know if Chen Hongyu can hold Tianxuanzi on his side, if he can hold it, the veil of Mingjiao can be revealed.
Sitting on the futon of Tianxuanzi, he asked someone to serve the tea that Tianxuanzi usually drinks, and the backbone of Tianyi outside has been cleaned up, and all of them have been escorted into the vacant room, many places are still searching, and after a while, some things were found from the warehouse in the backyard.
Liu Chengfeng arrived at the treasury, and the secretary Wang was tired and tired at this time, so he greeted Liu Chengfeng and said: "My lord, I found a lot of silver coins here, a treasury full of good things, and the students calculated that they are worth at least 100,000 silver." ”
"100,000 ......" Liu Chengfeng gasped, but then, he was not surprised, after all, this day has been entrenched for so many years, extorting money at the dock, collecting money everywhere, coupled with the contributions of many incense people, there are tens of thousands of incense people under the door in the heyday, and it is not difficult to collect a wealth of 100,000 taels of silver.
Liu Chengfeng was silent for a moment at this time, as if he was thinking about something.
The priest said, "What are you thinking?" ”
Liu Chengfeng said: "Presumably, someone in this Ming Sect is funded. Otherwise, so much money would have been accumulated in just one den, but it has been hoarded and stored here. It can be seen that they are not short of money, and the people who support them may be so wealthy that they may not be able to afford this little money. ”
The secretary couldn't help but gasp, 100,000 taels of silver, what a huge fortune this is? However, as Liu Chengfeng said, this silver is by no means something that can be saved overnight, if Mingjiao really has no money available, this money will naturally not be placed in this treasury at will, unless it ......
The priest looked left and right. After confirming that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said, "My lord." Even if King Ning is behind the Ming Sect, I am afraid that he may not be able to be so wealthy, is there anyone else? I don't know who is so bold. ”
Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly and did not speak.
At this time, the moon was like a hook, and there was still a smell of blood in the sky, and the priest Wang accompanied Liu Chengfeng to the edge of the courtyard, surrounded by busy captains. Liu Chengfeng said: "The key to the problem is still that Tianxuanzi. If you can hold it, you and I will be a great achievement, why hasn't anyone on Chen Hongyu's side come back yet? ”
Liu Chengfeng's voice just fell. A lieutenant trotted over and shouted in the darkness, "Sir...... Adult ......"
Liu Chengfeng responded: "I'm here." ”
The captain followed the sound and saluted: "I was escaped by Tianxuanzi......"
"Escape?" Liu Chengfeng's face sank, and he said, "Didn't you say that you have found his traces and are chasing him?" How can you get away? So many people, can't even hold an old way? ”
The lieutenant smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that the brothers don't do their best, it's just that the Taoist ran all the way to the mansion of Shouning Hou Zhang Heling, Shouning Hou's doorman saw that it was him, opened the door and let him in, Chen Zongqi heard the news, immediately gave up the monk of the canal, and rode a horse to negotiate with the people of Shouning Hou's family, who knew that Shouning Hou Zhang Heling came out in person, not only refused to hand over people, but also said that Tianxuanzi is a Taoist monk, with him as a guarantor, it is not a thief, it is our Jinyi Wei side slander, Chen Zongqi still wants to say more, but he slapped Shouning Hou Zhang Heling, That Hou Ye said that it was Lord Liu who went to say this, Tianxuanzi was his guest, as long as he was in the Hou Mansion for a day, no one would want to touch him a single hair. ”
Liu Chengfeng's face turned cold, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Chen Zongqi was beaten?" Where are the people now? ”
The captain said: "Chen Zongqi was afraid that Tianxuanzi would escape, although he didn't dare to enter the Hou Mansion, but he still let people guard the front and back doors of the Hou Mansion. ”
Liu Chengfeng nodded, and couldn't help but smile bitterly at the priest: "It seems that it is not so easy to take this Tianxuanzi." ”
Wang Si said: "My lord, it is said that Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, has a good relationship with Tianxuanzi, Zhang Heling is sure of Huang Lao's skills, and often asks Tianxuanzi for advice, he is a relative of the emperor, if he refuses to hand over people, wouldn't it be ......"
Liu Chengfeng calmed his face and looked at the dim night sky, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and this day seemed to be shrouded in a layer of heavy dark clouds, which made people feel a little depressed.
Shouning Hou Zhang Heling's identity in the Beijing division can be described as outstanding, he is the half-brother of Empress Zhang, at this time Empress Zhang's father has passed away, leaving only two brothers, naturally treat them very well, and Zhu Youzhu is also more conniving with these two brothers-in-law, in fact, as early as Liu Chengfeng set up a stall, I have heard of such two uncles, this pair of brothers because of favor, the Forbidden City as a relative, very casual, so that staying in the Forbidden City at night, no one dares to care.
And although Empress Zhang knew that the behavior of this pair of brothers was a bit indulgent, but for the sake of flesh and blood, there was also a lot of protection, just such a person, by no means a good stubble, at this time, even Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but hesitate, the matter involved Uncle Guo, should this matter continue to be investigated?
The face of the royal priest also became difficult to look at, it was not that he did not know the weight of this uncle, especially in this Hongzhi Dynasty, there were only two uncles. His Majesty's relatives are not many, although the heavenly family is cold, but because of the exclusive favor of Queen Zhang, this pair of uncles has naturally become a plague god that no one dares to provoke, and now if you want to take people, you must go through the uncle, but is this uncle willing to hand over people?
I thought I had seen the dawn, but who knew that a national uncle was disillusioned with all hopes, and tossed all night, but it ended up in vain.
Wang Si said: "What do you think? ”
Liu Chengfeng was silent for a moment, and then said, "Want? What else can you think? After ending up with everyone's nest, do you have to give up at the last moment? Let's go. Prepare a horse for me, and let's go meet this Shou Ninghou for a while. ”
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Shou Ninghou is the half-brother of Empress Zhang. The status is prominent, so the Hou Mansion is not far from Dong'anmen, and the specifications of the Hou Mansion are also extremely grand, with gray brick walls with ground bricks and joints surrounded by hanging gatehouses, and the two ends of the ridge are towering with simple shapes. Above the rafters, a row of triangular "drips" is neatly inlaid with them. Under the eaves, there is a gate painted dark red. The heavy door leaf is inlaid with a pair of brass door cymbals the size of a bowl mouth, and the knocker hangs.
Passed through the middle gate. The door is a shadow wall, tile roof, brick foundation. It is decorated with brick carvings all around, and there is a pink wall in the center, without words and paintings, like a clear moonlight. At the bottom of the shadow wall, a cluster of intertwined ancient vines, bent up like a dragon, climbed a few bamboo poles, and wrapped around the luxuriant branches. Green leaves such as covers. It can be connected to the ground, and in spring and summer, purple flowers bloom. Hang down thousands of strings of jewelry. It's just that it's the beginning of winter, and you can't see this full spring on the shadow wall.
Between the shadow wall and the gate, there is a narrow front yard, which is where the gatehouse and the outer living room are located, at this time the gatehouse has turned on the lights, and the two doormen came out and quietly opened a little crack in the door and looked outside, and then a gatehouse sneered: "These captains who don't know how to die, I'm afraid that our Hou Ye will still be lighter, and they still refuse to leave." ”
The other said: "Master Hou ordered, tell us to keep an eye here, look at this appearance, if these captains don't leave, won't you and I be unable to sleep all night?" ”
"Hey...... It's really unlucky to bump into this kind of bad luck in the middle of the night. ”
"But didn't Master Hou sleep either? Tianxuan Dao is in trouble with this, presumably Hou Ye is still accompanying him. ”
The other doorman listened, and looked into the outer hall, where the lights were faintly flashing. Menzi couldn't help but whisper: "It is said that the Tianxuanzi Daoist was also frightened this time, Tianyi was surrounded by those thieves and killed a lot of people, but fortunately, the Tianxuanzi Daoist had his own heavenly blessing, so he escaped by luck." ”
"Hey...... Let's leave this alone, let's go, let's hide for a while, and forgive these captains for not daring to rush in. ”
The two of them shook into the small house where the gatehouse was resting, and the Hou Mansion fell silent again.
Zhang Heling is only about thirty years old, his skin is fair, his body bones seem to be quite energetic, at this time he is wearing a Taoist robe, holding a tea cup in his hand, and is chatting with Zhang Jing, the shocked and undecided Tianxuanzi.
Although Zhang Heling is a rich son, he is actually not happy about Tianxuanzi's visit, and this guy doesn't know what he has done, no matter what, he is also a wanted criminal by Jinyiwei. Isn't it a trouble for yourself to come to yourself now?
It's just that unhappy is unhappy, people...... Zhang Heling will not hand it over, if a small Jinyi Wei Baihu says that he wants someone for himself, he will obediently hand it over, where should the face of the Shouning Hou family go?
In fact, Zhang Jing's mind is not like this, he understands in his heart that he has nowhere to go, come to this Hou Mansion, although Shou Ning Hou respected himself a lot in the past, and also cultivated some Tianyi Dao techniques, but this Tianyi Dao is just Shou Ninghou used to play, and now that he is in trouble, people are really willing to protect themselves?
The reason why Zhang Jing fled here was that on the one hand, he naturally had nowhere to go, but on the other hand, he was able to understand Shou Ninghou's thoughts, Shou Ninghou is the person who loves face the most, as long as he enters here, he will never hand himself over. As for how to escape from Jingshi in the future, you can only take one step at a time.
The two of them have their own hearts, and they are naturally not too enthusiastic when they talk about it, and they say a few words without a match, Zhang Heling has to scold a few words These years, the town government secretary is too ignorant of the rules, and there is no evidence, so he actually went around killing people and taking people, and appeased Zhang Jing a few words.
Zhang Jing said solemnly: "This time, thanks to the Hou Ye's take-in, the poor Dao is very sad, and the Hou Ye ...... If Jinyiwei makes you embarrassed, then ask Xing to hand over the poor road, so as not to nag Hou Ye and cause trouble to Hou Ye. ”
Although he was sincerely afraid that Zhang Heling would cause trouble, Zhang Heling couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said: "Hmph, don't say that it is a hundred households of the guard, that is, the commander of the town government department is here, and Ben Hou is not afraid of him, they will hand over people if they want to?" Is it really easy to bully this marquis? You stay here for the time being, I will ask someone to clean up the guest room, and the people outside don't have to pay attention, and no one will want to come in without the orders of this marquis. ”!。
