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

"What bullshit holy religion? It's just a group of rebels. Do you really think you are so great?" Xu Shiheng sneered at the altar leader's accusation.

From the beginning to the end, he never thought about working for the White Lotus Sect sincerely.

After using the power of the White Lotus Sect to resolve the family's debts.

Xu Shiheng had already begun to think of ways to break away from the White Lotus Sect.

It's just that it's easy to join an organization like the White Lotus Sect.

But if you want to leave, it's not an easy thing.

Now is not an afterthought, this kind of thing related to the rebellion, as long as you participate in it.

Basically, there will be no good fruit to eat.

Of course, if there is a more reliable backend, the problem will not be too serious.

It's a pity that Xu Shiheng is not such a person, otherwise he wouldn't be forced by some debts to join the White Lotus Sect.

After painstaking research for a long time, I still couldn't find the right time.

Even Xu Shiheng himself did not expect that he could successfully escape from this drought.

I am too lazy to continue talking nonsense to my former boss.

After Xu Shiheng confirmed his identity, he reported directly to Jin Yiwei: "Master Xiaowei, this person is indeed the altar leader of the White Lotus Sect's Datong branch."

Jin Yiwei asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure it's this person?"

Xu Shiheng smiled slightly: "Please rest assured, sir, I will never make fun of my own life."

"It is indeed him, there is no mistake."

"Very good, take this person away. Send someone else to search this place carefully to see if we can find any other useful clues."

At the same time that the altar owner was taken away, Chen Xueying also received the news.

bump!
"These are useless people who fail to achieve anything but fail."

After receiving the news, the middle-aged scribe next to Chen Xueying couldn't help but cursed.

This was the first time for Chen Xueying to see his counselor act so rude.

I couldn't help but asked with some curiosity: "Why is Mr. Tang like this?"

Tang Wenlu gritted his teeth and said, "Back to the prince, the Kong family member was just arrested and has already confessed to everything."

"Just now, the altar master of our Holy Cult Datong Mansion has been arrested by the Jinyi Guards."

"That's it." Chen Xueying nodded with sudden realization.

Then there was some disappointment.He said: "Originally, I still had some hope for the Kong family. After all, they are descendants of Saint Kong."

"If we can bring them over, it should be able to greatly increase our strength."

"After all, it's not easy for us now to overthrow Zhu Ming."

Tang Wenlu said angrily: "The Kong family and Zhu Han have a sworn hatred. I originally thought that even if he was caught, he would not reveal our information so quickly."

"Unexpectedly, Zhu Han just frightened him a few times, and this guy actually tried everything."

"He is a descendant of Confucius in vain."

Just when Tang Wenlu angrily accused Old Man Kong, Chen Xueying seemed to suddenly remember something?
Asked eagerly: "What did you just say?"

Tang Wenlu was startled by Chen Xueying's sudden change, and quickly explained: "I...I said that the Kong family member confessed everything after being frightened by Zhu Han casually."

Chen Xueying's face became more and more gloomy: "Why do you know so detailedly?"

This question was a bit confusing, but Tang Wenlu still answered honestly: "Back to your lord, the master of Datong Mansion has been operating here for many years, and there are secrets about us in many places in the government office. These news came from them. .”

Chen Xueying shook her head repeatedly: "No, the situation is definitely not right."

"What's wrong with the prince?" Tang Wenlu thought for a long time, but couldn't think of anything wrong with this.

Chen Xueying's brain was racing: "Do you think Zhu Han is a fool?"

"This..." Tang Wenlu hesitated for a moment: "It can assist Zhu Yuanzhang to unify the world, and even expand externally, opening up territory that has not been seen in thousands of years."

"No matter what his character is, Zhu Han is naturally extremely shrewd."

As Tang Wenlu talked, Chen Xueying gradually grasped the key to the matter.

"Since Zhu Han is not a fool, why did we get the information so easily about interrogating the Kong family member?"

"Our people, even Zhu Han, know what he said."

Tang Wenlu quickly explained: "Your Majesty, that's because Zhu Han is in the prison of the government office, interrogating..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Wenlu's expression changed, and he finally realized that something was wrong.

Old Man Kong is no ordinary criminal, but a rebel!

How could such an important prisoner be imprisoned in a government prison just like everyone else?
Even if it is due to special circumstances, a suitable place for detention cannot be found.

But during the interrogation, I could always find an empty room.

It's impossible to interrogate prisoners in such a brazen manner in front of all the prisoners and jailers, right?

If he could even make such a childish mistake, then how did Zhu Han assist Zhu Yuanzhang to defeat powerful enemies and establish Zhu Ming's empire?

Then the problem is, if Zhu Han hadn't made a mistake.

That means that all this is a conspiracy and was done intentionally by Zhu Han.

"Your Majesty, we must leave immediately." Tang Wenlu said suddenly and urgently.

"We can't just leave like this." At this critical moment, Chen Xueying calmed down.

"The imperial hawks and dogs of the Jin Yiwei should have followed the path we used to deliver the news."

"If we leave now, we might run into them head-on immediately."

Tang Wenlu became more and more anxious: "But Your Majesty, we can't continue to stay here and wait to die."

"No matter what, you have to give it a try."

"Master Zhengyuan and Lu Gong are here, they should be able to protect the prince from Datong Mansion."

Master Zhengyuan and Lu Gong are both the top masters in the White Lotus Sect.

The two of them once worked together to annihilate a wave of pouring water containing hundreds of people.

There are two of them here, plus some other masters from Jinyiwei.

Not to mention the ordinary defenders of Datong Mansion, even a small number of Jinyi guards are probably no match for them.

In the case of a surprise attack, seizing control of the city gate is not a big problem.

Chen Xueying denied the proposal: "This is absolutely not possible. If we leave now, our arrangements in Datong Mansion will fall short."

"But the prince..." Tang Wenlu wanted to continue to persuade.

Chen Xuying has indeed made a decision: "Needless to say, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our Holy Religion."

"If we cannot seize this opportunity, it will be even more difficult to overthrow Zhu Mingxia in the future."

Chen Xueying's face was full of fighting spirit: "So this time, we must teach the dog court a profound lesson no matter what."

"Even if we can't kill Zhu Han, we still need to let them know that we have this ability, so that they can live in worry and fear all the time."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Tang Wenlu was ecstatic.

Originally, he had always felt that his prince might have had a less than satisfactory life in the past.

So a lot of the time, it ends up being a bit indecisive.Unexpectedly, his prince not only guessed Zhu Han's vicious plan at once.

Not only was he not afraid, but he was also tit for tat with that guy Zhu Han.

"Come on, let's find another place."

"Except for the few people under your command, abandon all the others and let them divert Zhu Han's attention."

Except for a few old people who followed Chen Chen Youliang and a few of Tang Wenlu's confidants.

Chen Xueying left the others behind and left the hiding place quietly.

And they didn't go far, they just turned around a street and entered an ordinary house.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, there was a series of dense footsteps, from far to near.

Several guys from the military immediately grasped the handle of the knife, ready to draw out the knife and fight for it at any time.

Chen Xueying indeed held their hands and gently shook her head to signal them not to be impulsive.

Several people carefully huddled in the corner, and even their breathing could not help but be lowered.

Afraid of making any noise and attracting unnecessary attention.

Just as Chen Xuying imagined, these footsteps passed quickly outside the house.

Judging from the direction in which the sound came and went, the target was obviously the place where they had been hiding.

Tang Wenlu admired Chen Xueying endlessly: "Fortunately, Your Majesty, you saw the opportunity early, otherwise we would all have been killed by that thief Zhu Han."

Chen Xueying said unequivocally: "It's just a clever trick."

"Your Majesty, what should we do next?"

"Do nothing." Chen Xueying's words surprised Tang Wenlu.

"Now is the time when they are most nervous and vigilant."

"The more you do at this time, the more mistakes you make. So it's best to stand still and see how they respond first."

Tang Wenlu wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

The group of people quickly entered the house, and when they appeared again, they had changed into ordinary people's clothes.

Chen Xueying was wearing civilian clothes and had patches on her body.

Under normal circumstances, it is not easy for people like them to pretend to be civilians.

After all, there are many things that simply cannot be faked.

But for Chen Xueying, it was something that came easily.

Because when he was anonymous before, he lived a civilian life.

After putting on this clothes and bending down a little,

He completely blended in with the ordinary people, with a hint of fear on his loyal face.

Even Tang Wenlu, if he didn't clearly know that this was his own king,
Maybe they will just think that these are two people who look somewhat similar to their own king, but are completely different.

While they were changing their clothes, Jin Yiwei had also taken down everyone in their previous hiding place.

However, after Xu Shiheng's identification, no trace of Chen Xueying was found.

"Really?" The captain of the Imperial Guard frowned and asked dissatisfiedly, panting as he walked towards the road.

Xu Shiheng had just finished identifying the altar owner when he received a notification that Chen Xueying's hiding place had been found.

So he was led by Jin Yiwei and hurried here to identify him.

Along the way, he didn't even have time to drink a glass of water.

Although I didn’t come here on the run, I still managed to get there after going back and forth like this.

Xu Shiheng's fragile body and bones still couldn't bear it.

He calmed down his breathing with difficulty: "Students dare not hide it. There is indeed no trace of Chen Xueying here."

After finishing speaking, he took a closer look at the people surrounded by Jin Yiwei.

He shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Not only Chen Xueying, but also Chen Xueying's confidants."

"Damn it..." the captain of Jinyiwei couldn't help but cursed: "These rebels are really capable of running away."

When Zhu Han learned that Chen Xueying had escaped, he sighed helplessly: "These guys can hide for so many years under the pressure of the imperial court. Sure enough, they are quite capable."

If this matter hadn't involved the lives and deaths of millions of people, Zhu Han would have really been interested in playing with the other party.

But now, as long as these people dare to appear in front of him, he definitely does not recommend using any method to completely eliminate them.

"These guys must not have escaped from the city yet. All city gates are on heightened alert."

"Anyone who wants to leave the city must undergo the strictest inspection."

"Whenever a suspicious person appears, I will control him immediately."

“No one is allowed to leave the city unless their identity is thoroughly verified.

"

Soon Chen Xueying and others felt tremendous pressure.

Not only were there more guards at the city gate, they were more than twice as many as before.

There were even many additional patrolling nobles in Fucheng.

Now, even if ordinary people want to take to the streets, they will go through several rounds of checks.

Naturally, the people of Datong Mansion also complained about this kind of thing.

But in order to catch the rebel Chen Xueying, Zhu Han didn't care about anything else.

As long as it doesn't make it impossible for ordinary people to live, a more high-pressure approach is indeed a last resort.

"Your Majesty can't continue like this." Tang Wenlu said worriedly to Chen Xueying.

Although Zhu Han's methods were not very clever, they did bring them a lot of trouble.

The most serious problem for them now is that the stored grain has bottomed out.

This place was originally a temporary refuge, and they never thought how long they would stay here.

Now they are suppressed here and cannot move, and the food in stock is gradually running out.

"Don't worry, we will have food soon." Chen Xueying's hands were busy, and the bamboo sticks were like obedient puppies, letting him round and flatten them.

After a short while, an exquisite bamboo basket appeared in Chen Xueying's hands.

This is also a skill he learned while hiding his name.

These people have read books since childhood and are smarter than many ordinary people.

Others need to learn something for a month or two, but Chen Xueying can often learn it closely just by looking at it.

It only took less than half a year to learn the work of a bamboo craftsman very skillfully.

If he hadn't been approached by the head of the White Lotus Sect, he would have been forced to become a rebel.

He might even become an excellent bamboo craftsman.
