Chapter 279 The identity of the leader
Lin Xiu looked at the list in his hand and was shocked.
This list appears in the hands of Emperor Xia, which is really weird.
At this time, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind him. Zhu Jin came over, took the memorial with paper pages from Lin Xiu, picked up several other copies, piled them together, and said, "There are still not finished writings here, so put them back first, and come again in an hour."
The little eunuch responded respectfully and carried the stack of memorials back.
Lin Xiu also stood up slowly, waved to Zhu Jin, and walked out of the palace...
When he walked out of the palace, he was still thinking about this issue.
Why did the assassination list of the Heavenly Dao Alliance appear here with Emperor Xia?
Could it be that the Tiandao Alliance has been undercover?
This is impossible. The stronghold of the royal capital is controlled by the leader of the alliance and the holy envoy. They have been in peace for so many years. Undercover here will appear unless the leader of the Heavenly Dao Alliance himself is an undercover agent. If the leader of the Heavenly Dao Alliance was an undercover agent, A Ke and the others would have been beaten up long ago.
Of course, it is impossible for the undercover to be Lin Xiu and A Ke.
What's strange is that if the court had already obtained the list of assassinations of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, why did Lin Xiu and A Ke perform their missions in the past few days, and they had not encountered any obstacles.
The imperial court had known the list for a long time and still allowed them to assassinate it?
This doesn't make sense.
After some thought, a bold idea suddenly arose in Lin Xiu's heart.
Suppose this list was not obtained by Emperor Xia from the Heavenly Dao Alliance, but by him to the Heavenly Dao Alliance...
Based on this assumption, speculate...
The mysterious leader of the Heavenly Dao Alliance may be supported by Emperor Xia, or the leader of the Heavenly Dao Alliance is Emperor Xia himself?
Although this speculation is too bold and a bit incredible, after such assumptions, many things seem to be able to explain.
Why does the leader of the Tiandao Alliance actually have an intelligence network covering the twenty-one prefectures of Daxia and are still so rich that the funds to support the Tiandao Alliance every year are at least 100,000 taels.
Why is a rebel party more proficient in the laws of Daxia than Lin Xiu?
In terms of intelligence capabilities, no one can be stronger than the Secret Investigation Department.
In terms of wealth, ten or one hundred Lin Xiu is not as good as Emperor Xia.
The reason why Emperor Xia did this was no longer obvious.
As the emperor, he had to take into account the powerful and powerful people in the capital and could not attack their followers.
But as a rebel, he didn't need to consider the ideas of the powerful and powerful. He killed him if he wanted to. The leader of the Heavenly Dao Alliance asked him to kill him. What's the matter with Emperor Daxia?
This trick is both black and white, high, really high!
Who would have thought that the rebellion was me?
At this moment, Lin Xiu was a little confused.
After a long time, the rebel was actually the one who killed the Tiandao Alliance by Emperor Xia himself, and he could not have imagined that as a rebellion party, their leader was actually Emperor Daxia.
Is this considered an undercover agent from the Heavenly Dao Alliance or a traitor from the imperial court?
What made Lin Xiu even more depressed was that in the Daxia court, he wanted to work for Emperor Xia. After joining the Tiandao Alliance, he actually wanted to work for Emperor Xia. Is this what he owe him?
He neither kidnapped his daughter nor lied to his sister. Although there was no direct evidence, Lin Xiu was already 80% sure. His guess was correct. This was the style of Emperor Xia. He did such a thing without a limit. No matter how many emperors were, he would not let Lin Xiu betray his lust and seduce the geniuses of other countries to Daxia one after another.
Lin Xiu shook his head.
It's sinister and too sinister. Compared with Emperor Xia, Lin Xiu himself is still too young and there are many things to learn from him.
At this moment, in the imperial study room.
Emperor Xia put a piece of paper in a charcoal basin. Seeing the paper burning out, Zhu Jin was beside him and whispered: "Your Majesty, there are news from two more palaces, two direct officials from the Huang family and the Wei family..."
He didn't finish his words, but just made a neck smear.
Emperor Xia raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's so fast, even if you just rush between the two palaces, you can't do it so fast, right?"
Zhu Jin said: "Under normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible, but if there are speed-like magic, it is not certain.
Emperor Xia asked, "Isn't Li Xiaoyao's extraordinary skills flying?"
Zhu Jin said slowly: "As far as the old slave knows, there are still a few friends around him, otherwise he would be the only one.
Even if you can't kill Zhang Jing, these people are extremely powerful, and there should be no opponents at the upper level of the earth level. They have made many amazing achievements in the past six months. Congratulations to Your Majesty, and you have obtained another sharp blade..."
Emperor Xia breathed a sigh of relief and said leisurely: "But their original intention is to create my rebellion..."
Zhu Jin said slowly: "If they knew Your Majesty's hard work, they would definitely understand Your Majesty."
Xia Huang paused and asked again: "Have you found out that matter?"
Zhu Jin shook his head and said, "We don't know how Li Xiaoyao learned about the court's actions.
There may be someone in the court. That time, the old slave wanted to use the trick to find the undercover in the alliance, but he didn't expect to be one step slower. This person's origin is mysterious and has superb abilities. If it weren't for A Ke, he would probably not be able to keep him. Xia Huang said, "Excellent men are lustful, this is normal. Is that boy Lin Xiu the same?"
Zhu Jin shook his head. Lust and lust are different. The new leader of the Heavenly Dao League is a hero who is sad to pass the beauty. Lin Xiu is completely lustful. Among everyone he has seen, his lust is only under His Majesty.
Emperor Xia didn't know Zhu Jin's thoughts, so he stopped mentioning this matter and said slowly: "Where are the Yin of the Ministry of Personnel, you should stare at it yourself,
Select a group of people as soon as possible to fill their vacant positions.”
Zhu Jin bowed and said, "Abide by the order."
At this time, Lin Xiu had returned home.
A Ke was practicing sword in the yard. Lin Xiu held her hand and took her to the room and asked, "Do you remember which officials were assassinated last year?"
A Ke nodded. Even though the list was clearly written, she would investigate the target in detail before taking action, so as to kill a good person.
Lin Xiu asked, "Who are there?"
A Ke recalled and said, "There are a county magistrate of Daming Prefecture, a county magistrate of Anxi Prefecture, and an official in Shannan Prefecture..."
In order to verify his guess, Lin Xiu specially went to Daming Mansion, Anxi Mansion and Shannan Mansion.
On the field path, Daming Prefecture, Huai County, and on the small roads of the field, we mentioned the county magistrate who had just taken office a year ago. The man carrying a hoe on his shoulder was full of smiles and said, "Lord Liu is a real good official. After he took office, the evil officials in the county government were gone, and the ruffians from all over the country dared not show up. We finally had a little hope in our lives. I really hope that he can continue to be re-elected..."
Anxi Prefecture, Feng County, and a tea stall on the street, the stall owner made a cup of tea for a young guest and said, "Zhang County Wei is fair and strict, selfless, unlike the dog official before, who is corrupt and abused the law. Those with money and power can do whatever they want, those with no power and power can only swallow their teeth if they are beaten."
In the Shannan Prefecture City, inside the government office, it was late at night, and a middle-aged official was still flipping through the file. He came to Shannan Prefecture for a year and first canceled the taxes added by the previous prefecture governor to the people, and recovered the taxes of the local wealthy businessmen. Although he was resentful by local gentry and even assassinated several times, the strength of the earth rank was enough to make him fearless without anyone...
Outside the window, a figure floating in the air floated away.
Through Lin Xiushi's field investigation, it was found that the three officials who were assassinated were notorious corrupt officials in the local area. They often bully the people and plunder the people's wealth and omit the people's wealth. They have a close connection with the powerful and powerful people in the capital. The people have suffered for a long time.
After these three people were assassinated, the imperial court sent successor officials to do many good things for the people within this year.
It has a good reputation in the local area.
Their common point is that the capital has nothing to do with the powerful and powerful people in the royal capital.
Obviously, because the powerful and powerful infiltrate the court too deeply, Emperor Xia could not attack them on them on the surface, and it would be fine if he dealt with one or two. If it was too frequent, the fool would also know that he was suppressing the powerful and powerful.
So he secretly asked the Heavenly Dao Alliance to take action. After the officials loyal to the powerful died, they would put their own people in, and no one would doubt his head.
All the blame is taken by the leader of the Tiandao Alliance. Who would have thought that he would commit his own rebellion?
This move is not only high, but also wonderful.
After knowing that Emperor Xia was the boss behind the scenes, Lin Xiu was not under any pressure to join the Tiandao Alliance. Even the emperor was a rebellious party, so he could only be regarded as a minion.
Lin Xiu has not told A Ke yet about this matter. This will have a great impact on them and may subvert their beliefs.
But there is no doubt that they have taken another big step from the realization of their ideals.
Even the emperor is his own, how can he lose?
The powerful and powerful all thought that the Heavenly Dao Alliance was a rebel, but in fact they were the true confidants of the emperor, and they were the rioters that Emperor Xia wanted to eliminate him so quickly.
Lin Xiu buried this matter in his heart, took the secret Investigation Department's sign and borrowed a wooden female worshiper from the worshipper. Not to mention that this sign is really useful, with the identity of the Secret Investigation Department's chief, he could mobilize any department of the court without having to explain it to them in detail.
If you have any objections to him, you can only go to the emperor to impeach him.
Of course, with this sign, he was deeply labeled as an emperor's confidant. Lin Xiu didn't mind this. After all, Emperor Xia was his boss, both openly and secretly.
In the yard of Ganyelin, the cherry blossoms had already fallen, leaving only bare branches. The female envoy put her hands on the trunk, and pink flowers soon emerged on the bare branches.
Lin Xiu handed a silver note to the woman for offering sacrifices and said, "My wife likes cherry blossoms, these cherry blossom trees,
I also have to trouble Zhou Gong to take care of him."
The female worshiper wanted to refuse, but Lin Xiu insisted: "This is my wish. I hope Zhou worshiper will accept it. Otherwise, I would be embarrassed to invite you next time."
These silvers are worth her salary for more than half a year. The female priest was actually very moved. After a few symbolic refusals, she reluctantly accepted them. She looked at Lin Xiu and Gan Ye Lin and said, "It's really enviable that sir and wife are so loving."
Because the wife likes cherry blossoms, she went so hard that she even tried to transfer the worship office through His Majesty, just to please her. If she gets her husband, she will have no regrets in her life...
