Chapter 285 Jingben is Zhu, and he returns to the Ming Dynasty
In the evening, Jing's martial arts school, Tanhuayuan.
Two middle-aged men were sitting in the study drinking. One was Jing Zhanyao, also known as Jing Tanhua, Jing Jiaotou or chief rudder, and the other was Song Jiaotou, also known as Song Protector.
There are only two people in the study now, and there is no third person. Even the maids have been turned away and retreated far away.
Coach Song couldn't help but ask: "Jiaotou Nestor, there is one thing I really can't help but want to ask: why did you spend so much gold to buy this woman Mei Yuanyuan today?"
Spending 1,100 taels of gold to buy Mei Yuanyuan, the reason Jing Zhanyao gave in front of Mr. Zhao was greed, but Coach Song knew that this reason was probably not true. Coach Song knew that Jing Zhanyao had spent so many years that
The so-called greed for wine and sex is actually a deliberate act.
Jing Zhanyao smiled faintly: "Do you know why I have been pretending to be drunk and lustful for so many years?"
Coach Song said: "Because you want to manage our Tiandi Gang secretly, and because your family has very big ambitions, and your brother is a powerful official in the border areas, so I need you, my brother, to pretend to be incompetent.
If you also perform well, it will affect your brother."
Yes, this is the reason why Jing Zhanyao has kept a low profile and even acted incompetent for so many years!
Jing Zhanyao's brother Jing Zhanrong is really awesome. He is now the governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu and the general in charge of Fuyuan. He is the largest official in the border area and the only official in the Qing Dynasty who has been granted the title of a first-class official.
Gong, Niu Dao has become equivalent to the western vassal king. Niu Dao and the Jing family are also required to have some family members guarded in the imperial palace in Shenjing City, including Jing Zhanrong's eldest son. This is in addition to the four princes and eight princes who founded the country.
The only one with such a requirement.
Back then, Jing Zhanyao took first place in the martial arts examinations, provincial examinations, and general examinations. He could also have won the first place in the palace examination. In this way, he would not only be the top martial arts champion but also the third martial arts champion.
However, during the palace examination, Emperor Kangxing, who was in power at the time, did not choose Jing Zhanyao to be the number one scholar in martial arts, but instead selected him as the top scholar in martial arts. The reason given was that Jing Zhanyao was too handsome and had the reputation of "the best scholar in martial arts" in the Tang Dynasty.
The style of "The Flower Explorer".
At first Jia Yun didn't believe this, thinking it was ridiculous, and thought there might be another reason.
In fact, when Jing Zhanyao participated in the martial arts competition, his father Jing Maochun and brother Jing Zhanrong had already planned to rebel. For this purpose, they asked Jing Zhanyao to pretend to be incompetent, so as to make Jing Zhanyao appear incompetent.
Zhan Yao secretly manages the Tiandi Gang without affecting Jing Zhanrong, so that Jing Zhanrong can become a powerful feudal official in the world.
However, when Jing Zhanyao was a boy, he once told his favorite woman, Yin Jingxiang, that he would become the number one scholar in martial arts in the future. Even though this woman was already married to Emperor Tianzhi, Jing Zhanyao still wanted to prove his ability to her.
The lofty ambitions of his youth were not bragging. So Jing Zhanyao violated the requirements of Jing Maochun and Jing Zhanrong, participated in martial arts examinations and almost became Wu Sanyuan.
At the last moment, Jing Maochun and Jing Zhanrong persuaded Jing Zhanyao together, and met with Emperor Kangxing. They said that Jing Zhanyao was greedy for wine and sex, and that although he had superb martial arts skills, he was of no use. They hoped that Emperor Kangxing would not choose Jingzhanyao.
Emperor Kangxing agreed to Zhan Yao as the top scholar in martial arts, so he appointed Jing Zhanyao as the top scholar in martial arts, and also gave a reason to prevent the Jing family from losing face.
This is the real reason why Jing Zhanyao was singled out as Wu Tanhua in the first place!
From then on, Jing Zhanyao stopped showing off. For the sake of the Jing family's rebellion, he followed the wishes of Jing Maochun and Jing Zhanrong and worked as a useless person for many years, secretly managing the Tiandi Gang.
At this time, Jing Zhanyao responded to Coach Song: "My brother recently sent me a message and learned that Emperor Tianzhi has frequently replaced civil servants and generals in the west recently. It can be seen that Emperor Tianzhi no longer trusts my brother very much. My brother is in charge.
He has been in the west for many years, and now he is like a vassal in the west. Coupled with the civil strife in the Qing Dynasty, at this time, Emperor Tianzhi is very afraid that the west will also rebel, so he has begun to weaken my brother's power and take strict precautions against my brother."
Jing Zhanyao drank a glass of wine and continued: "In that case, I will boldly make such a show of buying a beauty with a lot of money this time. Perhaps Emperor Tianzhi will weaken his guard against my brother."
Master Song paused and said, "Mei Yuanyuan is Mei Kui's doting daughter. The chief rudder spent a lot of money to buy her. Although it may show greed, it may also make Emperor Tianzhi suspect that your Jing family also has treacherous intentions."
Jing Zhanyao smiled and said: "It is possible, but according to my understanding of Emperor Tianzhi, Emperor Tianzhi is more likely to think that our Jing family has no rebellious intentions. If our Jing family has rebellious intentions, how can I
You bought Mei Yuanyuan so blatantly?"
Jing Zhanyao continued: "Besides, it doesn't matter even if Emperor Tianzhi suspects that our Jing family has treacherous intentions. Anyway, he has begun to take strict precautions against my brother. He should not transfer him away within a year, but he should be able to transfer him after a year."
My brother will be transferred from the west, and our great cause will be carried out within a year."
Teacher Song nodded.
Jing Zhanyao said: "In addition, there is a personal reason why I bought Mei Yuanyuan with a lot of money this time. I sympathize with this woman. I don't want the female relatives in our family to fall into such a miserable end in the future. With such a
Having Mei Kui's daughter by my side can also remind me that once I rebel, I can only succeed and not fail!"
Coach Song raised his glass: "With General Jing and you, I believe our great cause will be successful!"
Jing Zhanyao raised his glass: "Then I wish us good luck in conquering this country!"
…
…
The next day is the first day of October.
That morning, Prince Zhongshun made a complaint in front of Emperor Tianzhi: "Your Majesty, the Tanhua Lang of the Jing family dared to spend 1,100 taels of gold to buy Mei Kui's daughter. In my opinion, this son behaved like this
But it's not just a matter of greed, it may mean that the Jing family is also up to no good as the Mei family."
Contrary to Prince Zhongshun's expectation, Emperor Tianzhi not only did not get angry when he heard this, but instead narrowed his eyes and smiled: "If it is said that Jing Tanhua bought Mei Yuanyuan because of the Jing family's evil intentions, yesterday you sent Chang Shi to the Ministry of Household Affairs to bid,
You also said you were willing to give me ten thousand taels of silver, does that mean you are also up to no good?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although these words were said with a smile, it was a smile hiding a knife, giving Prince Zhongshun a chilling air.
Obviously, Emperor Tianzhi already knew about yesterday's sale of plum plums in the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Prince Zhongshun was so frightened that he knelt on the ground: "Wei Chen is very loyal to the emperor. It can be seen from the sky. The emperor has always been kind to me. Wei Chen only wants to repay him with all his heart. He would not hesitate to go through fire and water for the emperor. How can he dare to plot evil?"
Emperor Tianzhi, who was sitting on the emperor's throne, looked down at Prince Zhongshun who was kneeling in front of him like a dog, and said in a deep voice: "I know your loyalty, but you also have many bad habits, such as greed.
As I said, it doesn’t matter that you are still greedy for men, but this time you insisted on buying Mei Yuanyuan because Jing Tanhua didn’t show you any dignity, so you deliberately took revenge and dared to come to me and give the Jing family eye drops.
, and you were immediately charged with conspiracy. How is your behavior any different from bullying the emperor?"
Prince Zhongshun was so frightened that his face turned a little pale. Based on his understanding of Emperor Tianzhi, he did not dare to defend himself at the moment and quickly admitted his mistake: "Weichen deserves to die. Weichen must remember the emperor's teachings and wholeheartedly relieve the emperor's worries from now on."
, I dare not make such a mistake again.”
Emperor Tianzhi waved his hand: "Go."
"I thank the Emperor for your forgiveness!" Prince Zhongshun respectfully shouted before standing up and cautiously exiting the palace. He was really depressed. Originally, he wanted Emperor Tianzhi to punish Jing Zhanyao or even suppress the Jing family, but he ended up letting himself do it.
He was so embarrassed that he was rarely scolded by Emperor Tianzhi.
Emperor Tianzhi stood up from the throne, walked into the Nuan Pavilion, sat at a large and luxurious desk, picked up a brush, and wrote a big word "View" on a piece of rice paper.
I stared at this word for a long time, and then said "haha".
Just as Jing Zhanyao analyzed Song Jiaotong, Emperor Tianzhi had indeed begun to weaken Jing Zhanrong's power and took strict precautions against Jing Zhanrong. The reason was also the same as Jing Zhanyao's analysis.
Jing Zhanrong is now like a vassal king in the west. Once he rebels, the harm will be no less than that of the Shui family's rebellion.
However, Jing Maochun, the previous generation of the Jing family, was a confidant of the Supreme Emperor. Even though Jing Maochun had long since begged for retirement, he is still alive and very close to the Supreme Emperor. From time to time, he would be summoned by the Supreme Emperor to Ningshou Palace to meet him. The relationship between the two
It is comparable to the relationship between the Supreme Emperor and Jia Daishan back then.
Jing Zhanrong of this generation is also a confidant of the Supreme Emperor. Moreover, Jing Zhanrong has made great military achievements in the west and conquered a large territory in the west. He can be said to be the most outstanding contributor after the four princes and eight princes of the Qing Dynasty. His achievements are even comparable to those of the past.
The first generation of Beijing County King who followed Qing Taizu to conquer the world!
As long as the Supreme Emperor was still alive, Emperor Tianzhi could not easily touch Jing Zhanrong, not to mention that the western part of Qing Dynasty needed Jing Zhanrong to be in charge. This also made Emperor Tianzhi unable to touch Jing Zhanrong easily, especially this year, with the rise of Qing Dynasty.
The civil strife caused foreign forces in the west to become restless. Emperor Tianzhi still needed Jing Zhanrong to firmly guard the Prince of Xining County who was stationed in Xi'an. Under such circumstances, Emperor Tianzhi could not move Jing Zhanrong more easily.
Similarly, as Jing Zhanyao analyzed, Emperor Tianzhi had no intention of transferring Jing Zhanrong away from the west for at least one year.
What Emperor Tianzhi is doing now is to strictly guard against Jing Zhanrong and begin to continuously replace Jing Zhanrong's civil servants and generals to weaken Jing Zhanrong's power and pave the way for transferring Jing Zhanrong out of the west a year later. In addition,
According to Emperor Tianzhi's knowledge, the Supreme Emperor should only live for about a year. It would be convenient for him to suppress the Jing family when the Supreme Emperor dies.
As for Jing Zhanyao's huge sum of money to buy Mei Yuanyuan, Jing Zhanyao also guessed Emperor Tianzhi's thoughts correctly.
Emperor Tianzhi was already worried about the Jing family's rebellious intentions, but this time Jing Zhanyao spent a lot of money to buy Mei Yuanyuan, which not only did not increase Emperor Tianzhi's worries, but actually weakened them. The reason is that Jing Zhanyao has always been
He has always had a greedy image, and this image has been deeply rooted in the heart of Emperor Tianzhi. If the Jing family has a counter-intention, how can Jing Zhanyao do such a thing blatantly this time?
Even if Emperor Tianzhi increases his worries this time, it doesn't matter. He still won't transfer Jing Zhanrong out of the west within a year, and the Jing family's rebellion will be carried out within a year!
…
…
This night on the first day of October.
Jing Zhanyao was drinking in the study room of Tanhuayuan. This time, it was not Coach Song who accompanied him, but Mei Yuanyuan, whom he had just bought with a lot of money yesterday.
At this moment, Jing Zhanyao was pouring a drink while enjoying Mei Yuanyuan's playing and singing. Mei Yuanyuan was sitting next to a piano, playing the piano and singing a song, "Moyu'er - Hate the World"
"What is love":
"Hate the world, what is love? Directly teach the promise of life and death. Traveling from the south to the north, how many times has the old wing experienced the cold and summer? Joy is fun, parting is painful, and there are even more crazy children. You should say: Thousands of miles of clouds, thousands of mountains
In the twilight scene, for whom are the shadows going..."
Just yesterday, Mei Yuanyuan was bought back by Jing Zhanyao, and she offered her piano skills to flatter Jing Zhanyao, letting Jing Zhanyao know that her piano skills were very good, and Jing Zhanyao took the initiative to let her sing a song,
I found that although she rarely sang before, she could sing quite well.
So Jing Zhanyao personally taught her to sing "Moyu'er - Hate Human Love". Mei Yuanyuan learned it very hard, and in just one day, she was able to play and sing the lyrics in front of Jing Zhanyao.
The plum blossoms are as beautiful as a fairy, and the appearance is very moving. Coupled with the way she is playing and singing, she is even more charming.
However, right now, while Jing Zhanyao was watching her playing the piano and listening to her playing and singing, he was thinking about another woman named Yin Jingxiang, thinking about this queen who is now the queen of the world.
Even though many years had passed, Jing Zhanyao still clearly remembered that a long time ago, she played the piano for him several times when she stayed in his family's house, and she played the piano very well.
At this time, Mei Yuanyuan finished playing and singing "Moyu'er - What is Hateful Love in the World", Jing Zhanyao smiled slightly: "Miss Yuanyuan, will you play and sing this song for me again?"
"Yes, Second Master." Mei Yuanyuan said respectfully and continued to play and sing.
Jia Yun was once called the second master, and Jing Zhanyao was also the second master in the Jing family. Now that Mei Yuanyuan is Jing Zhanyao's concubine, she is naturally called the second master, not Jing Tanhua, Jingjiaotou,
Not even the chief helmsman.
As Mei Yuanyuan continued to play and sing, Jing Zhanyao suddenly picked up a pot of wine with his left hand and walked to the desk. He picked up the brush with his right hand, took a sip of the wine in his left hand, and wrote on a piece of rice paper with his right hand.
He wrote a big character "日", then took another sip of wine and wrote a big character "月" on another piece of rice paper.
The character "日" and the character "月" are combined to form the character "明".
"My surname is not Jing, the original name of Jing is Zhu. The sun and the moon are the bright lights. Let's restore the Ming Dynasty!" Jing Zhanyao took another sip of wine, looked at the words "sun" and "moon" on the two pieces of rice paper, and sighed in his heart.
stand up.
Yes, his surname is not actually Jing. His real surname is Zhu. The Jing family should actually be the Zhu family. The Zhu here is Zhu from the Ming Dynasty!
Jing Maochun, Jing Zhanrong, and Jing Zhanyao, the ancestors of these three father and son were originally a branch of the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty. At first, this ancestor luckily escaped the pursuit of the Xia family of the Qing Dynasty. Not only that, but later Jing Maochun also
Having become a feudal official in the Qing Dynasty, Jing Zhanrong now seems to have become a vassal king in the west.
This is also the reason why the Jing family wants to rebel!
Restoring the Ming Dynasty is the core slogan of the Tiandi Gang, and it is also the secret family motto of the Jing family!
