Soon it was February, and Ambassador Yang officially left for the north.
Zhenjiang.
"Master is indeed trustworthy."
Yang Feng looked at Yao Guangxiao who came to meet him.
"Since the ambassador sincerely invites you, why would a poor monk dare to break the promise? Who is this?"
Yao Guangxiao looked at the old monk beside him.
"This is the eminent monk I want to introduce to you."
Yang Feng said.
"Senior brother is very majestic and awe-inspiring. I think he was also a hero before he became a monk."
Yao Guangxiao said with obvious vigilance.
The old monk smiled slightly...
"Master is really good at telling faces. I thought it was all a boast later. He is indeed a hero. At that time, the hero almost killed your Majesty the Emperor in the midst of thousands of troops."
Yang Feng exclaimed.
So this demon monk really has something of his own.
Yao Guangxiao instinctively took two steps back and looked at the old monk with wide eyes.
"Zhang Dingbian?"
He screamed uncontrollably.
Then Yang Feng had a weird smile on his face and put his arms around his shoulders from the side.
"Master, don't be afraid, your emperor knows!"
As he spoke, Yang Feng pointed to the Jin Yiwei responsible for escorting him.
Of course he is protected by Jin Yiwei.
A hundred households and fifty guards in royal robes escorted him.
Yao Guangxiao looked at the calm eyes of those Jin Yiwei, convinced that Zhu Yuanzhang did know about this, but he was still very frightened. At this time, Yang Feng, who was holding his shoulders, could feel his heartbeat increasing. So this psychological quality is better than
After all, there is still a lot of difference compared to Zhang Dingbian. Although Yao Guangxiao is a generation of demon monks, this kind of demon monk is still not as good as Zhang Dingbian, a tycoon in troubled times.
The levels are different!
A demonic monk like him would indeed cause trouble in peacetime, but in real troubled times, it would not be enough in the face of a hero like Zhang Dingbian.
Kill it like a dog!
"The poor monk is now just a monk who went to Huining to build a temple according to His Majesty's orders."
Zhang Dingbian said calmly.
As he spoke, he took out the imperial edict from his arms.
The real decree.
Zhu Yuanzhang appointed him as the presiding officer of the Yongning Temple, and went to Nurgan City to build the Yongning Temple...
Nurgan City also belongs to Huining. Huining Dudu Commandery Department belongs to Jinghaiwei City, and it is also officially garrisoned. There are already a thousand soldiers there. Jinghaiwei and Thirty Thousand Guards are the same, with one Han per thousand households plus four
The thousands of households that submitted, including the Kuwu on Sakhalin Island, are now under the control of the Jing Haiwei.
Therefore, building a temple is inevitable.
The best option is to let all those random tribes worship Buddha.
As for why Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly remembered this old enemy, it was of course Yang Feng's instigation. At this time, a large number of Chen Youliang's old men came out, and Zhu Yuanzhang's treatment of these people was very simple under Yang Feng's instigation. Their children were resettled in the mainland.
The household was a common people and according to the ordinary household registration standard, they were given cattle, farm tools, seeds and other things, and then went to Fengyang Prefecture to cultivate wasteland, but they had to go to Huining, that is, to follow Yang Feng as hired workers to cultivate wasteland.
Then the rest was left to Yang Feng.
The young ones are in their forties, and the older ones are in their fifties or sixties.
That is to let them die in Huining, and in exchange, leave their descendants with a legal status of Ming Dynasty household registration.
They were Yang Feng's employees. When they died, Yang Feng paid for their families' burial, took them back for burial, and paid them wages when they were alive. Although they were older, they had been through hundreds of battles, and it was more than enough to suppress the Jurchens in Huining or Mongolia.
, he is also good at opening up wasteland and farming. And their family members are regarded as being detained in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, and they dare not rebel. Zhu Yuanzhang does not have to spend money on them. In the end, he can manage a real farming area for Zhu Yuanzhang, which can be said to squeeze out the final value.
. And Yang Feng's additional condition was to let Zhang Dingbian go to Huining to build a temple. Although he wanted to build a temple in Huining City, Zhu Yuanzhang changed it to Nu'ergan City, but it was no big deal. Anyway, he could do whatever he wanted when he arrived in Huining.
Already.
In fact, not only Yongning Temple, Zhu Yuanzhang also built many temples in the Huining capital area under his jurisdiction.
One on Changbai Mountain is the Five Dragon Palace.
One in Huining City.
One in Jilin City.
A Xiguan city.
He appointed monks to take charge of the first batch of these five repairs.
Of course, the others are certainly not eminent monks like Zhang Dingbian. They are all serious eminent monks. Zhang Dingbian was simply stuffed in. Anyway, it would be better to throw him to Huining than to have him wandering outside, always doing something.
Unrealistic fantasy.
The important thing is...
He can give those old rebels fantasies!
Otherwise, Yang Feng would not be able to let those old rebels peacefully open up wasteland in Huining.
With him there, he coaxed the old rebels and told them that we should wait for the opportunity to open up wasteland in Huining and gather grass and stockpile food. One day, when the Zhu family's strength is exhausted, we would raise troops and go south again. Zhang Dingbian is here.
You can rest assured, and then all that's left is for these old guys to wait day after day, and they won't be able to climb up after waiting for another ten years. Even if they still have the will, they won't have the strength at that time, and then one person
Pay some pension and go home to coax your grandson. Why are you rebelling if you have trouble getting on the kang? Leave such a promising career to young people!
Of course Zhu Yuanzhang also liked such a good design.
As for Yang Feng’s evil intentions...
The relatives of these old rebels who stayed in the pass were Zhu Yuanzhang's hostages.
rebel?
Revolt and kill the whole family!
There are also hostages in Zhang Dingbian.
He is indeed a monk now, but he also has descendants. When he became a monk, he was already in his forties. Of course, he already had children and grandchildren. These people are also hostages in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands now. Zhu Yuanzhang's feelings towards him are the same as those towards others.
Just like people.
He was told to die in Huining.
With Yao Guangxiao's mind, of course he quickly figured out the context of this matter.
Only then did he feel relieved.
Otherwise, he would be really frightened!
Who is this person? He almost killed the Ming Emperor back then. However, even if it was Zhu Yuanzhang's will, it would be very troublesome for him to mix with Zhang Dingbian. After all, he was the King of Yan behind him. I have to say that Yang Feng
The bastard had no sense of martial ethics and launched a sneak attack on him, an old monk, which almost gave him a heart attack and forced him into an embarrassing situation.
But now that the matter has come to this, it is impossible for him to escape.
This is the only way to get into trouble.
"Master went to a remote area to educate the barbarians and make the Buddha's light shine in the sea of whales. Please accept the worship of the poor monk!"
He quickly saluted.
Zhang Dingbian ignored him and just smiled.
Yao Guangxiao straightened up immediately, but it could be seen that he was still very reserved. After all, he was just a demon monk with some rebellious ideals, and in front of him was this great master of the rebellious world.
Like a poisonous insect crawling in the dark.
Then look up at the giant beast above your head.
Bloodline suppression!
"Let's go!"
Yang Feng said with satisfaction.
This effect was very good, and Zhu Di probably wouldn't be able to sleep well afterwards.
Zhang Dingbian!
The hero of troubled times!
His cronies and Zhang Dingbian got together?
Combined with his current situation and the confidants who were previously targeted by Lingchi...
Naerbuhua and Aru Timur had already been imprisoned in the capital. At the same time, there were dozens of his accomplices. They were Zhu Di's close confidants, especially Aru Timur, who was the escort commander. Although he was based on
He was charged with defecting, but this treatment can still be said to be a blow to Zhu Di, and then combined with the rumors of moving to the vassal state.
He is very uneasy!
He was so uneasy that he even got close to people like Zhang Dingbian.
It’s terrifying to think about it!
Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang definitely didn't care.
But the problem is that others will, people from Zhu Yunxi's family will know it. What will Chang Sheng think and Lan Yu think if word spreads? Zhang Dingbian is very powerful. Everyone knows this. He is so powerful that no Ming army general on the battlefield can be confident.
win.
Is he older?
Which one is different, Feng Sheng or Fu Youde, in terms of age?
Lan Yu is actually younger.
But even his brother-in-law didn't dare to say that he could defeat Zhang Dingbian!
If such a person is really won over by Zhu Di and becomes Zhu Di's help...
What should we do if Zhu Di rebels with his help after Zhu Yunxi succeeds to the throne?
Then it was fun to watch.
As the current Ming Dynasty's fun-loving person, Ambassador Yang is becoming more and more fond of doing such great harm.
Then he boarded the ferry across the river.
Zhang Dingbian immediately boarded the boat, and Yao Guangxiao was behind like a younger brother serving the boss, waiting with a smile for the old man to board the boat, and then got on, and the ferry went straight to Guazhou. The rest of their trip was very simple.
It means going all the way north along the canal, passing through Yangzhou to Huai'an, and crossing the Yellow River in Huai'an to Yizhou.
They are the Jinyi Guards, and they have to take post stations along the way. The post road from Beijing to Dengzhou takes the Huai'an, Yizhou, and Laizhou lines.
Although it is indeed closer to go along the coast.
But at this time, the coastal areas were all remote and remote areas with inconvenient transportation.
Even the route from Haizhou to Andongwei is mainly by sea.
Yizhou Yi.
"Should I go and visit my sworn brother??"
Ambassador Yang, who was full of wine and food, was sitting in the courtyard, picking his teeth and looking a little tangled in Xigu.
His gaze traveled across the high mountains in the west.
There is someone he misses waiting for him...
And the roads are actually very convenient.
There is a road heading west from Yizhou that leads directly to Qufu.
"If the ambassador misses you very much, you might as well go and visit him. He's not far away."
Yao Guangxiao said with a smile.
(Mr. Yan Shenggong: Don’t try to harm me!)
Yang Feng's blackmail of Yan Shenggong was certainly not a secret to people like him. In fact, the Qufu County Magistrate reported it immediately. At this time, the Qufu County Magistrate was a hereditary member of the Kong family. Of course, it was not easy for Yan Shenggong to complain about this matter in person.
However, as a local official, the county magistrate still has the responsibility to report.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not reply to them, and then they did not dare to ask again...
The chief historian of the Lu vassal also reported it secretly.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang was quite curious about the secrets of the Kong family.
Play again?
His Majesty the Emperor really wants to find Yang Feng and ask him what he can do to control the Kong family. We all know how to push them to this point. There must be a big secret that can make the Kong family pay a huge sum of money, so you just have to be honest.
What a dumbass!
Stop it!
If you pick it again, you will find filth.
At that time, His Majesty the Emperor would also be embarrassed.
Isn't it just a matter of losing money and avoiding disasters, but how about insisting on entanglement?
Of course Yan Shenggong is sensible.
If Zhu Yuanzhang didn't reply to him, he would just tell him to admit it!
So this incident was treated as if it never happened.
But there are still many people who know, so many people are curious during this period. After all, for such an obvious thing, people are not curious but surprised. There are also many people who secretly suspect that there is something wrong with the Kong family. Yao Guangxiao is obviously also a fun person.
"go?"
Yang Feng said eagerly.
There is no need for him, after all, he is not short of money now, and he earns more than 100,000 yuan a month just from selling mirrors.
"Ambassador, Duke Yansheng's Mansion has sent someone to ask for an audience. It is said that they have been waiting for you here for many days!"
At this time, Yi Cheng walked in and saluted and said.
"Well?"
…
So Yang Feng was not able to visit his sworn brother in the end, because his sworn brother sent someone to bring a thousand taels of silver to his door. His going to Dengzhou was public, the emperor even issued an order, and the Di newspaper had already reached him
There are of course places in various places, including Yan Shenggong's. And when he went to Dengzhou, he had to go to Yizhou. In order to avoid him going to Qufu again and causing chaos, the sensible Yan Shenggong sent someone to bring the money to Yizhou City first.
Just wait!
sensible!
Being sensible makes people feel distressed!
In other words, the psychological shadow left by the last time was so profound that even Yan Shenggong was disappointed.
"What secrets do you know about the Kong family?"
Zhang Ding was also amused when he looked at the box of silver in front of him.
This is all kneeling down and begging.
How humble Lord Yan Sheng was in front of Yang Feng!
"I'm very particular about people. I've already received money from others, so I definitely can't tell anyone about it."
Yang Feng said.
While he was talking, he picked up a silver ingot and bit it like others.
"Is there something wrong with their family's bloodline?"
Zhang Ding said with a smile.
"Master, don't say that. Don't hurt Yan Shenggong's dignity by making false accusations."
Yao Guangxiao said with the same smile.
He's all catching up to rumors and shadows...
Yang Feng didn’t say anything!
So these two old foxes guessed it immediately.
Of course, even if they guessed Yang Feng, they would not betray their friends. It is difficult to find a sensible friend like Yan Shenggong. Besides, this kind of thing is meaningless as long as Zhu Yuanzhang does not admit it, and Zhu Yuanzhang obviously will not admit it. He chose
Beikong's appointment as Yan Shenggong was not really for the memorial tablet of Confucius. It was to win over the Confucian scholars in the north. Just like his violent handling of the North and South case later, it was for the sake of balance and allowing the north to truly return to the same family.
As for the bloodline of the Kong family, it has nothing to do with the emperor.
Even if they are cheated, it will be a shame to their ancestors, and it is not His Majesty the Emperor. All His Majesty the Emperor wants is to have such a thing, as long as you have it, nothing else matters.
Bloodline is not important.
What's important is that it has value.
Therefore, the greatest value of this matter is not to expose it when it is not exposed, but to make Yan Shenggong afraid of being exposed. After all, Yan Shenggong does not know whether he will face Zhu Yuanzhang's murder of his whole family after being exposed.
His Majesty the Emperor is very scary, so you can use Yan Shenggong as your daily cash machine.
"In this case, we won't go, so as not to delay the trip. My sworn brother is really a good brother. Let's go see him when we come back next year!"
Yang Feng looked at the white money in front of him and said with satisfaction.
"Ha, you do have a bit of the face I used to have."
Zhang Ding said with a smile.
So he still wanted to blackmail Yan Shenggong.
They set off and continued northward, crossing the Yishui River and entering the high mountains...
