Chapter 655 Find the hand in the dark
In addition to Liumen, there are also people who are building momentum for him and forcing him to take the position.
This is the conclusion that Bei Mingxiu, who has been carefully observing the outside world in the past few days, finally came to.
Now the calls about him have almost overshadowed Yu Changping's. If he went out and listened carefully, he would definitely think that he was the leader of the Tiandao Alliance now that he was welcomed by the public.
People are always willing to believe what they see. Back then, they saw Yu Changping who was inexplicably poisoned and Bei Mingxiu who entered Qiu Mansion and killed Shen Yi who was trying to protect Yu Luoxia and Mrs. Yu. From then on, Bei Mingxiu Xiu's reputation has never been better. Now that they have seen the undiminished affection between Bei Mingxiu and Yu Luoxia after their reunion, and the harmony between him and Yu Changping, those previous impressions have naturally become lies. What people believe now is the image that was just created, and many people firmly believe in it.
Bei Mingxiu had to admit that this campaign was very successful. It not only turned his reputation around, but also brought the voice for him in Zhongzhou City to a real peak, making it impossible for him to openly reject the leader of the Tiandao Alliance. appointment.
The question is, who is building momentum for him outside the six doors, and who will build momentum for him?
Bei Mingxiu was thinking and started to check at the same time, so on the afternoon of the next day, he came to Yi Zong Hall.
Because of the close relationship with Qiu Fengchun, the current Yi Zong Palace suffered heavy losses in that incident. The position of the palace leader is still vacant. Now most of the people in it are new faces who can barely fill the vacancies. When Bei Mingxiu stepped into Yi Zong When they came to the palace, the expressions of these people became wonderful.
Some people resented Bei Mingxiu for breaking the original peace of Yi Zong Palace and disrupting their lives. They looked at him with a bit of resentment. Some people followed his every move with the idea of examination, as if they wanted to learn from his expression. His true thoughts could be seen through his movements, and some looked at him with admiration. The fact that he could defeat Qiu Fengchun, who had been controlling Zhongzhou City, was enough for them to admire him...
Amidst the different eyes, Bei Mingxiu looked around calmly, and then asked: "Where is Cheng Zhiwei?"
…
Cheng Zhiwei is still a deacon of Yizong Palace, which may or may not be big, but now he is indeed a "man of the moment" in Yizong Palace.
In terms of closeness to Qiu Fengchun, he is even better than Wu Bujue. He can be considered Qiu Fengchun's confidant. This is just because he is not very domineering on weekdays and his reputation has not reached the point where everyone calls for beatings. However, after Qiu Fengchun's downfall, his situation did not become difficult.
The reason is very simple. In the battle against Qiu Fengchun, he, who had always been timid and fearful, stood firmly on Bei Mingxiu's side and made a huge contribution to the victory of that battle. Those who were originally unhappy with him No one dared to put pressure on him despite the possible pressure from Beiming Xiu, so now
His life is still relatively prosperous, and he still does whatever he needs to do.
Cheng Zhiwei was very satisfied with his current situation. He had no intention of going to Yufu to seek friendship. After staying for a few days and the limelight was over, he took his wife back to his home cleanly. Years of experience in observing words and emotions told him that he should do that It would be in vain, but he also knew that Beiming Xiu had a certain degree of trust in him. As long as he did his job peacefully, Beiming Xiu would still be able to use him.
But when Bei Mingxiu walked towards him, he subconsciously felt a chill in his heart, and he quickly smiled and said: "Master Bei Ming, what do you want from me?"
Bei Mingxiu took him into a small room in Yi Zong Hall, made a simple soundproof array with ice marbles, then pointed outside and said: "Explain the rumors outside?"
After confirming that other forces were involved in the rumors, he quickly asked Zhu Neng and Feng Wuxuan, who had finally been able to take a break, to take action. They followed the spread of the message and found out about Cheng Zhiwei with almost no effort.
On the body.
Cold sweat suddenly fell on Cheng Zhiwei's face, and his smile became a little flattering, or nervous. Originally, he thought that what he did was just in line with Bei Mingxiu's wishes. How could he have imagined that Bei Mingxiu would come with such an unkind appearance this time?
His appearance: "Mr. Beiming, um... I just want to..."
"If you want to flatter me, then you are flattering me." Bei Mingxiu looked at him quietly and said, "Tell me how you did it."
The rumor swept through Zhongzhou City in almost one day, and slowly changed people's views on him. This shows that the rumor spread very quickly, and on the other hand, it also shows that the quality of the rumor is very good, and it is easy to let people know about him.
People believe.
Bei Mingxiu was sure that Cheng Zhiwei could not make up such a rumor, nor did he have the means to spread the rumor quickly, so there must be someone else who specifically spread the rumor.
Although that person had some friendship with him, when facing Beiming Xiu, Cheng Zhiwei naturally had no reason to hide anything and directly told everything he knew: "After that rumor appeared, I thought that you might be able to do it, Mr. Beiming."
In need of some help, at least to make people believe in your character, I approached Zhang Chu..."
Bei Mingxiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Zhang Chu?"
Cheng Zhiwei nodded quickly and said: "He is a friend of mine at Fa Zong Hall. He has a good reputation among the people and often asks me for help. I thought that he can get along with the people anyway, so he will promote it... for sure
It's twice the result with half the effort... Mr. Beiming, I don't want to make you angry, and please don't embarrass him."
Bei Mingxiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Can't you see that you are so loyal?"
Cheng Zhiwei smiled apologetically and said, "After all, I begged him to do it. It's not good for him to be harmed because of me."
"I try my best."
Leave this sentence,
Bei Mingxiu left the Yizong Hall, leaving only the anxious Cheng Zhiwei. He really couldn't calm down now.
Bei Mingxiu was very anxious, as if he was racing against something terrible, and he had no idea what the object of Bei Mingxiu's anxiety was.
He could only pray secretly in his heart that he would not do anything terrible.
…
When Bei Mingxiu returned to Yu Mansion, he immediately mobilized Zhu Neng and Feng Wuxuan again. The next day, he received reports from Zhu Neng and Feng Wuxuan.
"Zhang Chu has no partisanship in the Tiandao League. He is a diligent and hard-working low-level employee. Therefore, he has not been affected by the two turmoil in Zhongzhou City. He likes to deal with the people on weekdays, so he has a good reputation among the people. He has a good reputation with Cheng.
I think we met Zhiwei five years ago and have a good personal relationship. Cheng Zhiwei’s wife was introduced through him, so she is a good friend.”
Bei Mingxiu said clearly: "It's no wonder that Cheng Zhiwei defends him so much. It's just that for such a person, no matter how good his reputation among the people is, he should not be able to let rumors expand to such an extent."
Zhu Neng nodded and said: "Zhang Chu alone is naturally not enough. He contacted Sun Qingyu."
Feng Wuxuan interrupted at this time: "This Sun Qingyu is a guest of the Tiandao Alliance. Because of his insufficient cultivation, he did not enter the Four Palaces and Five Halls. If it weren't for Lao Zhu's extensive connections, we wouldn't be able to touch this person."
Bei Mingxiu said: "Sun Qingyu? If he is really an ordinary guest, he and Zhang Chu can't make any trouble together."
"That's the problem." A solemn look appeared on Feng Wuxuan's face, "There are many people in the Four Palaces and Five Halls who are surrounded by rumors, and they are getting more and more intense. The origin should be Sun Qingyu, but...
We can't find out the process of this spread."
Feng Wuxuan and Zhu Neng, one came and went without a trace, and the other had connections all over Zhongzhou. With the explicit and covert cooperation of the two of them, they actually found out about Sun Qingyu and then couldn't investigate. The matter must not be that simple.
Bei Mingxiu's expression became much more solemn: "There are too many people at the bottom of the Tiandao Alliance. Even if there are a lot of people now, plus the number of guests living in Zhongzhou City, the number is still too many. If this rumor wants to spread, these
People must be fertile soil."
"It is impossible for an ordinary guest minister and an ordinary low-level person behind him to control everything. There is another hand behind them. This hand took advantage of Cheng Zhiwei and openly allowed rumors to take root."
Bei Mingxiu came to this conclusion and looked at Zhu Neng and Feng Wuxuan solemnly. The expressions of the other two people were not good-looking either.
They all had an idea, an idea that they couldn't believe.
Perhaps, there is an invisible hand controlling the spread of this rumor.
