[Red House] The First Imperial Merchant

Chapter 35 Xue Pan asked to destroy the Black Lotus Sect

The disaster relief money was lost, and the main responsibility naturally fell on the second prince who escorted the money to the disaster relief. Emperor Pingkang made a decree that day, and the words were quite gentle. After all, only the second son stood up to help out of the two sons. He only said to hurry up. Be sure to get Yunyun back.

The temperature in central Beijing remains high. The end of August is just like the weather in the capital at this time. The atmosphere in the court is very anxious. At the beginning of September, there was a sudden rainstorm that night. Xue Pan sat in the study and his eyelids kept twitching. He was not a superstitious person before. People, since transmigrating into a book, have become a little superstitious, their eyelids are jumping and they can't gather energy, Xue Pan closed the book and started, the heavy rain outside the window made the sound of thunderbolts, washing the ground of the flower bed, a sweltering heat mixed with The smell of mud made my heart feel stuffy.

At this moment, he went to Andingmen and rode his horse galloping, pointing at the red flag, and sent the urgent letter all the way to Yulong Palace. Emperor Pingkang had just undressed and was about to go to bed. "An urgent report from the Holy Land-----"

"pass!"

That night all the cabinet members of the DPRK and China rushed to the study of Yulongdian to discuss matters. Xiao Luoluo like Xue Pan was naturally not qualified to go, so I didn't know that he just entered the capital as an official, and he didn't have eyeliner everywhere like Lao Youtiao. Prepared in advance, so when I went to court on the second day, I found that the faces of the various officials were solemn, some looked blank with joy in their eyes, and some were worried physically and mentally and walked in a hurry.Xue Pan paid close attention, and found that the factions that supported the second prince in the past were all worried, and thought: Could it be that something happened to the second prince in Ludi?Secretly prepared, I am afraid that Emperor Pingkang will lose his temper in the court today.

The old eunuch sang salutes in the court hall, and all the officials knelt down to welcome Emperor Pingkang. The second prince who was sent to suppress was knocked off the cliff when they faced off again. The Black Lotus Sect came all the way to the capital under the banner of overthrowing the Daqing Dynasty, shouting the slogan of overthrowing the faint king. Flatten Kandi's face!Last night's discussion did not come up with a specific reason. The cabinet ministers had an unprecedented unanimous attitude, saying that they would severely destroy the Black Lotus Sect. Emperor Pingkang's anger was somewhat extinguished, but he hesitated when it was his turn to send. You pushed me and me Pushing you, Emperor Pingkang deliberately sent Yan Qing to go. After all, Yan Qing was the general who repelled the foreign enemies back then, but this time Yan Qing was like a gourd with its mouth sawn.

Emperor Pingkang's anger was over, and then it was time to assign specific tasks.As soon as he got up, the whole court was quiet again. Xue Pan saw that the eldest prince had been looking at Yan Yanqing, Yan Yanqing was silent and didn't know what to think, as if waiting to get impatient, the eldest prince stood up first, and said loudly When Emperor Pingkang on the dragon chair got impatient to hear the good words about the Black Lotus Sect, heresy, etc., the First Prince said: "I intend to lead the troops to destroy the Black Lotus Sect."

Xue Pan also inquired about the news. The founder of the Black Lotus Sect was a scholar who failed the rankings. He was about 40 years old. It can be seen that he has not passed the exam for many years. This person's name is Li Rubai. He sounds like a weak scholar. The family is also a farmer. He has been a hunter and a long-term worker for a short time. The longest job is the job of a bastard. He sneaks around all day and does nothing. But he can't stop this person with a flexible mind and a sharp mouth.Ludi itself is poor, and the local folk customs are fierce, even the mother-in-law is fierce. It is common for husbands and wives to have scratches all over their faces when they fight.There was a severe drought this year, and there was no harvest in the fields. This kind of thing was common in the ancient courts. After distributing disaster relief money, the local yamen still had food reserves. This way, it would be fine. It has been done like this for many years. Who would have thought of this? This time the damage was huge.

The 300 million taels of silver are gone, and the second prince's whereabouts are unknown now.All this is due to the variable of Li Rubai, who had no income in his family, was so hungry that he ate and cheated on the street, and was caught by a restaurant. The fat head and big ears don't open warehouses to save the people, and they talk nonsense that the second prince from the capital is pampered and pampered, and doesn't care about the life and death of their inferiors. Foaming at the mouth, twitching all over, faltering like a witch, saying some mysterious and mysterious words, in short, he coaxed the store owner, and the boss even offered Li Rubai as a god, Li Rubai who tasted the sweetness has not stopped since then , The lies became bigger and bigger, and in the end even he himself thought that he was the messenger of heaven, saving all peoples.

The granary of the local yamen was robbed, and the gangsters were gathered to cook porridge and distribute food. As a result, more and more people joined the Black Lotus Sect, and the second prince who was forced to hide could only wait for the imperial court to send troops, and sent a letter But he was intercepted, and his whereabouts were unknown and he fell to the cliff.At this time, Li Rubai was already self-inflated, and he was treated as a god by the refugees all day long, and he really treated himself as a dish.The [-] army with the refugees and gangsters to stop them planned to attack the capital directly.

Although the Black Lotus Sect claims to have an army of [-], they are not really well-trained soldiers, and they can only grab food and grass all the way. Subtotal, the Black Lotus Sect, which claims to have an army of [-], will be disbanded.

Anyone who understands knows that this battle is sure to win and there is no danger, but people's hearts are the most greedy, who is willing to fight if they are used to living a comfortable and pampered life?Furthermore, you can still live well if you don't fight for high positions and powers, but if you fight for accidents, everything will be bad.If you want to fight, only young people like Xue Pan are bloody and want to take this opportunity to get promoted and get acquainted in front of Emperor Pingkang.Or, the eldest prince wanted to express that.

If the eldest prince wants to make meritorious service, he and Yan Yan arranged it early and early, as soon as his brother died, he would immediately do so.But it never occurred to Emperor Pingkang that he didn't seem to want the eldest prince to go.Not to mention officials, the more powerful and wealthy the more afraid of death and loss, the same is true for Emperor Pingkang, the whereabouts of his second son are unknown, it is better for the eldest prince to stay in the capital safely.

Emperor Pingkang denied the eldest prince's wishes, and as soon as the words fell, Yuan Xiujin came out first, knelt down and said: "I intend to go." Xue Pan at the door lifted his robe and stepped forward, knelt in the middle, and said loudly: "I intend to destroy Heretic sect, give me back my good country."

Emperor Pingkang looked at Xue Pan on the ground, pondered, and said, "Sure!"

At the end of the court that day, Xue Pan went to the Qin School. The third prince was frightened a few days ago. Concubine Rui originally said to rest for two days, but she did not expect that the third prince would never finish his studies. Seeing this, Xue Pan couldn't help feeling that he was Skipping classes in different ways, has a headache and brain fever, and wants to exaggerate it into a cancer so he doesn't have to go to school. Now this kid is better than him!

Since he was assassinated, the third prince seemed to have grown up, he was no longer the carefree little prince, and paid more attention to the affairs of the former dynasty on weekdays.Xue Pan just arrived at Qin Xuetang today, the third prince greeted him and said, "Teacher, what are you doing?! What if you get hurt?"

In the heart of the third prince, Xue Pan is already considered one of his own, and he is still the kind of very close one of his own.The last one of his own, Xiao Xizi, died, and now the third prince is terrified, fearing that Xue Pan will also have an accident, and he will be left alone.Thinking of this, he tugged at the corner of Xue Pan's clothes and said anxiously: "I'll go and beg my father, teacher, can you not go?"

"How can it be so dangerous!" Xue Pan touched the thin face of the third prince. The originally thick little tiger had also lost weight in the past few days. body?"

The third prince thinks so too, master he --- hey!master!The teacher just said master!

His eyes were shining brightly. The state of the third prince at this moment returned to Xue Pan’s first time seeing him. He was full of energy. He was holding on to the corner of Xue Pan’s clothes tightly, as if he was afraid of repenting and running away. Apprentice?"

"Since you have already called me master, why do you still ask such a stupid question?" Xue Pan teased.It is normal for Zhao Hongyi to look like this, Xue Pan would not be used to the appearance of the second prince of the gloomy city mansion!

The third prince jumped up excitedly, but was dragged back by Xue Pan, and said, "I need it for the apprentice ceremony."

"Do you want to ask the Ministry of Rites to choose an auspicious day to put on the plate?" The third prince nodded, and said affirmatively: "It should be the case with the master's martial arts, but the father is in a bad mood now, and it will take a long time if this continues. Where is Father watching the ceremony?"

After hearing this, Xue Pan broke out in cold sweat, thinking of Jia Huan's simple bow, he suddenly felt that he was indeed a royal, and he looked like a wild farm boy on weekdays. Huan's teacher apprentice ceremony is already considered solemn, if it is according to what the third prince said, it is not solemn but troublesome. Xue Pan is the person who is most afraid of trouble, so he interrupted immediately and said directly: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. Day, just today, you can serve tea and kowtow, and the rest will be saved.”

"Isn't this too simple?" The third prince raised his head and asked.In his heart, the master is so powerful, and he should give everything that is good to him who is so hard to ask for.

Xue Pan said with a stern face, "If you don't want to accept apprentices, that's all."

The third prince was so frightened that he shook his head, lifted up his robe with joy, and performed three royal kowtows in a proper manner. Wenzi beside him also saw it, handed him a teacup, and the third prince took it. With tea."

Xue Pan took the tea, took a sip, put down the teacup, and said, "Get up, Hongyi, and leave tomorrow at the soonest. Today, the fate of our two masters and apprentices has come. I will go back to do my homework during this period, and you should study with peace of mind." Do not slack off."

"Yes, Hong Yi understands." The third prince felt refreshed. Sure enough, there is a difference between a teacher and a master. When the father is in a good mood, he must put the master on the plate.
