A Clash of Gods

Qi Ning had long known that Long Tai would have asked about this matter, and had long thought about how to answer it. A pair of respectfully said: "Emperor, I actually want to tell you about this matter."

"Let's talk quickly." Long Tai was obviously very interested in this: "I have dealt with you, your martial arts are no better than I, how long has it been since you learned such a powerful swordsmanship, I looked at Master Bi Xiang Not much difference. "

Qi Ning said with a smile: "The Emperor may not believe it. In the middle of the night, a mysterious person ran into my house and taught me how to use these techniques."

"There is such a strange thing?" Long Tai stunned, wondering: "Who is that mysterious person?"

Qi Ning shook his head and said: "I really don't know. I asked him, and he didn't tell me that he was an old man."

"Old man ...?" Long Tai thought thoughtfully, and then smiled: "The guards of your Jinyihou Mansion are not vegetarians. That man can run quietly into your house without being discovered, martial arts. Naturally, it is extremely high. He teaches you the swordsmanship. Naturally, he is not malicious to you, so I should be an expert in Chu. "He asked again:" Is he still coming these days? I want to see this high What a person looks like. "

"Emperor, he wouldn't even tell me the name, and dare to enter the palace to see the emperor." Qi Ning said: "But after the man taught me sword art, he never appeared again, and I don't know his whereabouts."

Longtai nodded slightly, suddenly thinking of something, and said: "I am really confused, I almost forgot the business. I call you into the palace, there is something to ask you." Threw a copy of the table case in front of Qi Ning, said: "Let's look at this trade-off first."

Qi Ning picked it up with both hands, swept it, frowned, and asked, "Emperor, is this Xichuan Shishi Shutong's fold?"

"Good." Long Tai said: "Wei Shutong's fold is a few days later than Li Hongxin's. The meaning of the fold is not much different." After a pause, he handed another fold from the shore, "This is Last time, the folds sent by Li Hongxin, you can take a closer look at the difference between these two folds. "

Qi Ning took a closer look at the two folds at the moment, and then looked up and said: "On Li Hongxin's fold, he reported that Heiyan Cave beheaded Danba County Order Bai Tangling and several officials, but Wei Shutong said that Several officials died in Heiyanling, which seemed to mean the same thing, but there was a big problem in the middle. "

"Good." Long Tai smiled faintly: "Wei Shutong only said that the official was killed in Heiyanling, but he didn't say that he was killed by Heiyan Cave people, and Li Hongxin's discount directly pointed out that Ming Tangba County Commander Bai Tangling has also been killed. Killing, but Wei Shutong's fold, only said that the official was dead in Heiyanling, but did not say that Bai Tangling was also among the dead. "

Qi Ning frowned and said: "Emperor, Wei Shutong is a little unclear about this fold. He was appointed by the court to the officials of Fengjiang in Xichuan. It stands to reason that the fold should be clearer than Li Hongxin, but this After seeing it, Daozzi feels confused. "

Long Tai smiled faintly: "You haven't seen many discounts, so naturally you don't understand the key."

"Also invite the emperor to give pointers!"

"You feel that Wei Shutong's fold is a little vague. In fact, this is what Wei Shutong wants to show to the court." Long Tai said: "What he said is not inside the fold, but outside the fold."

Qi Ning immediately understood it and said, "The emperor said that the content in this fold is not that Wei Shutong wanted to play with the court. He just wanted to use this fold to let the court see that there are other mysteries in it?" Dao: "But why did he do this? He is the history of Xichuan, if he has something to say to the court, why should he be vague, must the emperor guess what he meant?"

Long Tai also frowned, saying, "I have seen this zigzag and think about it, there are only two possibilities. First, Wei Shutong is worried that this zigzag will be seen by others, so he dare not make it clear what he wants to say. It can only be ambiguous, so that I understand that he has unspeakable secrets. Another possibility is that Wei Shutong deliberately blurs the words and leaves a way for himself. "

"Later?"

"Perhaps Xichuan's things are different, Wei Shutong is worried that the court will find out other things, so plan ahead and make a clear plan for the relationship." Long Tai sneered: "Xiandi sent him to Xichuan that year, just let him Governing a good party has become the eyes of the court in Xichuan. If this person is wise and protects himself and looks forward to things, I do n’t think he needs to stay in Xichuan anymore. "

"Emperor, forgive me for being stupid. The emperor said that Wei Shutong might also be worried about others seeing the content of the discount, and dared not tell the truth. Then I have two things that I do n’t know. What would it be that I dare not tell? "Qi Ning's expression became serious." If Liantang Xichuan's thorny history has concerns about this black rock cave incident, and dare not make it clear, then this thing must be a trivial matter. "

Long Tai leaned forward, lowering his voice and said, "Recently, things are happening one after another in Xichuan, don't you think it's very weird?"

"The emperor said so." Qi Ning also said softly.

Long Tai thought for a while before saying: "The last time I was in a hurry to save people, I didn't have time to ask you any more. Last time you were taken hostage by a swing, Ximen sent people from Shenhou to Xichuan without a trace. Investigate the Black Lotus Church, this time the Black Rock Cave rebellion, the Huainan king means that the Black Rock Cave and the Black Lotus Church cannot be separated from each other. . "

"Huainan King seems to have been very enthusiastic about annihilating the Black Lotus Church." Qi Ning said: "What does Zhongyi Hou mean?"

"Sima Lan has always said that the evidence is conclusive. When the poisonous king of Jiuxi broke into Shenhou Mansion, he would have nothing to say. The Helian lotus religion was intended to rebel, and the court would naturally not sit by and watch." Long Tai said: "Lu Xiao The Ministry of Military Affairs has begun to formulate plans to encircle and suppress the old nest of the Black Lotus Church, but it is now in deep winter. The terrain of Nishikawa is close to danger, and the nest of the Black Lotus Church is in the mountains. So even if you want to fight, you have to wait until after the spring.

Qi Ning nodded slightly and said softly: "However, Swing Yi claimed that the Beijing epidemic has nothing to do with him."

"So the court still gave them time." Long Tai said: "Since the Black Lotus Church is the power of the rivers and lakes, I also talk to them about the rules of the rivers and lakes. The people of the Shenhou House will go to the Black Lotus Church to let them hand over the swing. If the swing is easily tied into Beijing to ask for guilt, the Black Lotus Church can also find and surrender the true culprit who spread the epidemic in Beijing. The court may still be merciful to them, otherwise ... even if the epidemic and them It has nothing to do, but they do not obey the orders of the imperial court, which is equivalent to undoubtedly rebellion. "

Qi Ning said: "The emperor is wise. First of all, the soldiers can show the emperor's dignity." After a pause, he said: "However, the gangs of the Black Lotus Church are reckless and will not cooperate with the court."

"Then blame the court." Longtai said: "Xichuan can't be chaotic at any time, but any trace of turmoil must be destroyed quickly." Then he smiled and said: "Yes, there are twenty days to be New Year's Eve, you What are you going to offer to me? "

Qi Ning opened his mouth, sweating his forehead, and said: "The emperor, Shu Chen bluntly, it should be ... Should the emperor give it to the minister?"

"I have just ascended the throne. This is the first year I really passed. You don't want to honor me, but also reward you. It's really bold." Longtai deliberately lowered his face and said: "Yes, I don't use your stuff. , Do n’t let me reward things, they do n’t owe each other. "

Qi Ning thought Lao Tzu hadn't seen such an embarrassing emperor. He smiled and asked in a low voice: "Emperor, in fact, there is really a shortage of money in his palace recently. Let's borrow some money first and use it for a while? "I thought to myself, your damsel still owes five hundred and two dollars to Lao Tzu. I guess there is no hope in this life.

"Oh?" Long Tai's eyeball turned, and said softly: "Don't know when I don't know, I ask you, what is going on with the five thousand two silver from the Dou family?"

Qi Ning knew that the matter would be known to Longtai sooner or later, and said with a smile: "Dou Lianzhong cleverly won the prize, I just got some silver from him to spend."

"You're not guilty," Long Tai said. "Under my banner, I also said that I want to collect the cash to prepare for the sacrifice of the heavens. I honestly tell you how much silver was collected in total?"

"Emperor ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ There is really not much money." Qi Ning said with a bitter face: "There is no more than ten thousand silver in total."

"Okay, you still don't have enough money for ten thousand or two." Long Tai laughed and scolded: "I can't get so much money in my hand. I can tell you that the first two generations of Jinyi Hou were all honest and honest, and you kid don't break The Jinyihou House's clean and honest signboard. These silvers should be appreciated by you. "After a pause, he sneered:" A small household is still a book, and every tens of thousands of silvers, their Dou family is really a business. Booming. "

"Emperor, I have heard that half of the business in the capital is related to the Dou family." Qi Dou and the two families are not tolerated. With this opportunity, Qi Ning certainly did not forget to give the Dou family eye drops. "That Dou Lianzhong is just Dou Kui. 'S son has no official body, but it's a lot of money to use silver to get there. "

Long Tai thought for a while, and then said, "I know." And then said: "What you are doing is to train the Black Scale Camp for me. If you have anything, you must come over and report to me."

"Zunzhi!" Qi Ning said.

"Oh, where is that gold medal?" Long Tai said: "The gold medal I gave you, you haven't returned it to me."

Qi Ning thought that the little emperor still thought of this. Last time he went to Shenhou Mansion, Long Tai gave him a gold medal to facilitate the interrogation of Anau. Qi Ning took the gold medal and never exchanged it. Long Tai said Come out, you can only hand over the gold medal.

After leaving the palace, Qi Ning did not rush back to the house, but went to the department headquarters.

Rebuilding the Black Scale Battalion, equipment and food rates are indispensable. Although the equipment and weapons are paid from the Hu Ministry, the military usually negotiates directly with the Ministry of War, and obtains equipment and food from the Ministry of War, not directly from the Hu Ministry.

The Black Scale Battalion has already begun preparations, but Qi Ning does not have a piece of equipment or a penny in his hand. Naturally, he must first go to the military department to negotiate.
