Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 567: Die for my future

"I said, Old Man Kong, aren't you a scholar? You scholars all think you are so great. Why do you surrender all of a sudden?"

Zhao Mingde, who came from behind, found out that Old Man Kong had surrendered.
Suddenly he became furious and punched and kicked Old Man Kong.

"Be gentle and don't beat this old man to death, otherwise he will be worthless." Zhou Tong immediately stopped Zhao Mingde's violence.

"I'm so angry!" Zhao Mingde said through gritted teeth.

He thought there was going to be a big battle, but in the end the matter was resolved without doing anything.

After being mentally prepared for so long, I ended up punching cotton.

This made Zhao Mingde feel very uncomfortable, and naturally he vented his depression on Old Man Kong.

It's just that Old Man Kong is quite old after all, so he doesn't dare to really put in any effort.

After all, even he knew that a living person was far more valuable than a dead person.

"What should we do now?" Zhao Mingde asked Zhou Tongtong.

Of course he didn't mean to ask Old Man Kong, but the people brought by Old Man Kong.

"This..." Zhou Tong hesitated.

If it had been before, he would have killed all the time without hesitation.

Now they are going to surrender to the imperial court. If they kill people again at this time, I am afraid Zhu Han will be dissatisfied.

After all, even if they are from the White Lotus Sect.

We also know how much Zhu Han attaches importance to the people.

When the private camp was first established, many people from prefectures and cities secretly came to the refugee camp to receive relief food.

As a result, relief food in refugee camps was consumed too quickly.

In order to solve this problem, Zhu Han even came directly to the refugee camp and sprinkled a handful of sand into the relief food provided by the Lord.

If it's just like this, that's all, in order to calm the emotions of the people.

His Royal Highness even ate the rice porridge sprinkled with sand himself.

Just this scene alone, let alone the ordinary people who fled.

Even those of them who joined the White Lotus Sect were deeply moved.

There are some things that Chen Xueying doesn't even know.

Before he came, many people had already left the White Lotus Sect.

A court where even the prince can do it and share the joys and sorrows with ordinary people.

It seems to have much more promise than the White Lotus Sect, doesn't it?
What's more, all the policies implemented by Zhu Han in Datong Mansion can benefit the people.

As long as you are willing to work hard and work hard, it may not be possible to make a fortune, but at least you can earn enough money to live a stable life.

Looking at the entire world, the people of Ming Dynasty are definitely the most hard-working and kind-hearted people.

As long as they can fill their stomachs by their own strength, no matter how hard they work, they will not have any complaints.

Xu Shiheng was outside the gate of Datong Mansion, waiting for Zhou Tong and Zhao Mingde to return.

When he found that they had no injuries at all, Xu Shiheng thought their operation had failed.

"Is it possible that you didn't catch Old Man Kong?" Although he was a little regretful, Xu Shiheng didn't complain.

After all, they are just a cooperative relationship, not superiors and subordinates.

If you are too self-righteous, you will only arouse the resentment of others.

Zhao Mingde laughed: "You guessed wrong this time. Not only did we catch Old Man Kong, we also spent almost no effort."

Zhou Tong pointed to the back, which meant to tell Xu Shiheng that Old Man Kong was there.

Although I don’t know how to capture Old Man Kong, it was Xu Shiheng who arranged it himself.

But he is also a scholar after all, and he cannot bear the crime of personally arresting the descendants of the most holy teacher.

Therefore, Xu Shiheng is only responsible for making suggestions but will never show up.

As for how to do it, of course it is left to Zhao Mingde and Zhou Tong.

He didn't intend to take the credit, anyway, as long as the three of them surrendered together.

He can also get some benefits more or less.

Although it may not be comparable to Zhou Tong and Zhao Mingde, as long as no one knows about the Kong family he is dealing with, it is enough for him.

Suddenly Xu Shiheng thought of a question and hurriedly asked: "Didn't you kill all the people around Old Man Kong?"

Zhou Tong gave Xu Shiheng a comforting look: "Don't worry, we have found a safe place to detain those people."

"We will release them all by tomorrow morning."

Xu Shiheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately you didn't take action, otherwise we would have spent a lot of time surrendering this time."

"It's getting late, and you two have worked hard all night. I have ordered people to prepare meals. You two can rest first after eating."

"Tomorrow morning, we will go after the city gate opens."

While he was talking, someone had already served a table full of delicious food.

But looking at these mouth-watering delicacies, neither Zhou Tong nor Zhao Mingde moved their chopsticks.

Xu Shiheng didn't care, and said with a smile: "I've been waiting for you two for a long time, and I'm already very hungry. Please forgive me for being rude."

Xu Shiheng picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of every dish on the table.

Even the wine was drunk.

After Xu Shiheng finished eating, the two of them waited for a long time.

Seeing that Xu Shiheng looked normal, I believed that he had not poisoned him.

He also picked up the chopsticks and started eating and drinking.

Xu Shiheng drank wine leisurely and watched Zhou Tong and Zhao Mingde eating and drinking with a smile.

While being with two people, they were thinking about their future life.

"Brother Zhou, from now on we will be members of the imperial court."

"You said we caught Old Man Kong, a big rebel, how will the court reward us?"

Zhou Tong is calmer than Zhao Mingde, but he also looks quite excited: "I'm not sure about this, but in any case, we have given such a big gift, so the court shouldn't treat us badly, right?"

The two talked excitedly for a while, but found that Xu Shiheng didn't speak for a long time.

Zhao Mingde laughed and said: "The reason why we were able to go so smoothly this time is all thanks to brother Xu."

"If your people hadn't found out that Old Man Kong secretly left Datong Mansion, we might have lost everything this time."

"Brother Xu, why don't you say a word?"

Xu Shiheng raised his wine glass and said with a half-smile, "I don't think I have anything to say to the dead?"

Hearing these words, Zhaotong and Zhao Mingde, two old men in the world, immediately realized that something was wrong.

The two of them went to get the knives at hand almost immediately.

But before their hands touched the knife, they felt that their strength was quickly disappearing.

As soon as they touched the handle of the knife, their hands were already hanging down far away.Two people fell on the chairs one after another.

Zhao Mingde felt as if someone had stabbed his stomach with a knife and it was rolling.

He raised his head with difficulty, glared at Xu Shiheng, and cursed fiercely: "You evil thief, even if I become a ghost, I will never let you go!"

Zhou Tong was indeed puzzled: "There is no enmity or enmity between you and me, why do you have to kill both of us?"

Xu Shiheng had a harmless smile on his face: "The two generals indeed have no enmity or enmity against me."

"It's just that the two generals have been in the White Lotus Sect for many years, right?"

"During this period, your hands have been stained with the blood of ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty."

What does Zhou Tong seem to want to ask?
Xu Shiheng was the first to answer: "General Zhou, don't get me wrong, I am not a good man or woman."

"It's just that you two should have heard that His Royal Highness is a person who can't get rid of the sand in his eyes."

"If you two join me in serving the imperial court, I'm afraid it will affect His Royal Highness the King's evaluation of me."

"Unlike the two of you, I haven't done anything harmful to the world since I joined Bai Lianzhao."

"So for the sake of my future, I can only ask these two good generals to fight to the end and lend your lives to me."

Zhao Mingde spit out a mouthful of blood: "You despicable and shameless hypocrite, I'm going to kill you."

He still wanted to get the knife, but now the poison had penetrated deep into his internal organs, and it was already very difficult for him to just sit.

Not to mention killing people with a knife.

"I know General Zhao that you are not willing to give in, but isn't that how people are in the world? The people who were killed by you and harmed by you in the past were also like this. They were not willing to give in."

Although he was about to die, Zhou Tong still felt a bone-chilling coldness.

The man in front of him was definitely the most terrifying person he had ever seen in his life.

He had just brutally killed them, but at this moment he could still act as if nothing had happened, as if he was talking to his best friend.

Hidden under his peaceful appearance is definitely an extremely venomous snake.

They didn't realize before that this person was so ruthless.

Even though I was extremely careful, this guy still succeeded.

"Don't think that no one will know what you do." Zhou Tong said word for word: "As long as the King of England knows what you have done, you think your results will be better than ours."

Xu Shiheng smiled and shook his head: "Why do you think I want to hide it?"

"Since I have chosen to be loyal to His Royal Highness, I will naturally tell His Highness what happened today."

Zhou Tong and Zhao Mingde died.

There was deep reluctance and hatred on their faces.

It looked like two ghosts that had just crawled out of hell and were seeking people's souls.

At the same time that the two of them died, a group of fully armed Jinyi guards and the guard army of Datong Mansion.

The place where they were hiding had been surrounded.

Xu Shiheng was not impatient and asked someone to open the gate to welcome the Jin Yiwei people in.

The leader, Zhu Yuanzhang, also knew him, and he turned out to be Captain Deng of Jin Yiwei.

After controlling everyone, Deng Xiaowei held the token and led several people to bring Xu Shiheng and Old Man Kong into Datong Mansion.

The city gate is closed, and even the Jin Yiwei holding the King's token cannot open it.

But if it's an emergency, it's not difficult to get into the city.

The hanging basket will be lowered at the city gate and the people like them will be lifted up in the hanging basket one by one.

"Do you people think that this king has a good temper and won't kill people?"

"How long have I been sleeping for just now? Why don't you dare to wake me up?"

Zhu Han, who had just been woken up, lost his temper, but no one cared.

This situation has become the norm.

If an emergency occurs, notify him immediately regardless of whether he is sleeping or not.

This was ordered by Zhu Han himself.

Zhu Han almost always looks like this every time he is woken up.

At the beginning, those people were terrified, fearing that Zhu Han would really kill someone.

However, the more times he did it, he found that although Zhu Han screamed fiercely every time, he never made a move against them.

They were completely relieved.

"Reporting to the prince is urgent and I have no choice but to do so."

After taking a sip of tea to cheer him up, Zhu Han complained angrily: "Tell me, what's the emergency?"

"Some high-level leaders of the white religion surrendered to our imperial court, and they also brought a member of the Kong family."

"According to what he said, this member of the Kong family is making suggestions for the White Lotus Sect, trying to take advantage of the drought in Datong Prefecture to launch a rebellion."

With just this sentence, Zhu Han's sleepiness disappeared immediately: "People from the Kong family? These guys still don't give up."

"Okay! Okay! Okay! It seems that this is to bully this king because he is soft-hearted and does not dare to kill them all."

After hearing Zhu Han's words, the person responsible for waking Zhu Han was speechless.

Who in the world doesn't know that King Zhu Han of England went on a killing spree in the Kong family. Is this considered merciful?
Soon, Zhu Han saw people from the White Lotus Sect who had surrendered.

"It's you." When he saw Xu Shiheng, Zhu Hua's jaw almost dropped.

The most important reason for this is that he fucking knows this guy.

In order to appease the people, Zhu Han specially came up with storytelling, so that the people could have a pastime after hard work.

If there were no storytelling, young people who had nowhere to vent their experiences would quickly come up with many jokes.

Many studies in later generations have proven that when people's material needs are met, spiritual needs can make society more stable and prosperous.

In order to promote this storytelling, Zhu Han also created many storytelling teachers.

He even put down his identity as a prince and personally trained them for a period of time.

Tell them what they should say in storytelling?
How to arouse the interest of the people, how to suddenly break the story in the most exciting part of the story, attracting the people to listen again next time.

And when talking about various places, how to create some special effects.

He never thought that the identities of these people had been clearly investigated.

As a result, there was actually a person from the White Lotus Sect here.

If Xu Shiheng had ulterior motives at that time, whether it was poisoning or a sudden sneak attack, he might have posed a real threat to Sweating.

"The sinner Xu Shiheng has met His Royal Highness." Xu Shiheng knelt down and kowtowed very simply.

Zhu Han narrowed his eyes and sarcastically said with a half-smile: "Who do I think it is? It turns out to be Mr. Xu. You've hidden it well enough. I asked Jin Yiwei to investigate all three generations of your ancestors." Clearly.”

"It turned out that we didn't find out that you have joined the White Lotus Sect."
