"Master is testing me." Zhu Zhen touched his nose and said: "The contents of these letters are quite different. They are all informing Bianliang that my father has recalled my brothers, and they also gave accurate information.
time."
"Before reuniting, they were able to know that my brothers were in the Peking Army several months in advance. It can be seen that..." Zhu Zhen spat out his breath and said: "It is not just the White Lotus Sect and the like of the Ming Jiao that want my brother to die, but also the White Lotus Sect and others who want my brother to die.
There are senior officials from North Korea, China and the military."
"Yes. This is normal." Liu Bowen nodded slightly and said: "Think about the huge case of Uncle Ye that has been so popular this month. Do you see it more clearly?"
"Master said at that time that there was someone behind Ye Boju, and he might have been used." Zhu Zhen nodded and said seriously:
"In line with the principle that whoever benefits the most will be the most suspect, if several of my royal brothers who are about to take over the vassal state are unfortunately killed, the ones who will benefit the most are of course the nobles who are leading the troops in the local area. In other words, they are unwilling to hand over
Military power, so he is making trouble?"
"It's possible." Liu Bowen said: "Don't forget, your father's cancellation of moving the capital to Fengyang has already hurt the nobles. In addition, with the change of the capital from the capital to the capital, their power will be weakened again. I'm afraid it will be over soon.
I'm holding back a lot of resentment. Although they don't dare to attack directly, if they have the opportunity to kill your royal brothers without getting their hands dirty, they will definitely be happy to help."
"Are these guys so bold?" Zhu Zhen looked unhappy.
"Hahaha." Liu Bowen laughed loudly as if he heard a joke: "If you weren't bold enough, could you have followed your father in rebellion?"
"..." Zhu Zhen felt depressed for a while, and then said in a low voice for a while: "There are also bad people in the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army."
"Of course. They are in the same group. This is not your cousin, but Deng Yu and others can stop it if they want to." Liu Bowen nodded and said:
"So this time, you really can't underestimate me. Go back to the palace and tell your father. He has to take action to deter those guys who are ready to make a move."
"Okay. But what is their plan? What should I report?" Zhu Zhen asked with a rogue look: "Master, now is the time. Please show some real skills and save the child."
"Hmph, you have to teach me well." Lao Liu took the opportunity to make a condition.
"Okay, I guarantee that I will give it to you." Lao Liu nodded in agreement.
Robben on the side was confused. Shouldn't it be the teacher who teaches the students? Why are the master and apprentice the other way around?
"Do you still remember what I told you about why astronomy is a forbidden art?" Liu Bowen asked himself.
"Because everyone can look up at the stars, and as long as they learn astronomical arithmetic, they can interpret God's will." Lao Liu replied.
"That's right. No matter what God's will is, after people learn about astronomy, they will think that they can interpret God's will. And then 'go with the will of heaven...'" Liu Bowen said slowly:
"In June, Venus invaded the first star in the north of Biyougu, and the main Yidi army rose up. Based on the division of territory, it should be in the Zhao region. From the time point of view, it was after that that the three religions began to gather in Bianliang.
"In August, the capital of Henan Province reported that there were horse thieves who used the names of the four great kings of the Yuan Dynasty to cause chaos. Thousands of people were mobilized and traveled between Yan and Zhao. The officers and soldiers repeatedly failed to capture them. They requested that all provinces jointly arrest them to prevent them from spreading."
Liu Bowen continued:
"Now it seems that this is what the "Yidi soldiers rise up" is supposed to be. But are there thousands of Huihui horse thieves? I am disgusted. Anyway, when the time comes, believers from the three religions will pretend to be them, and they will take the blame afterwards... Of course,
The three religions are also being used, but they should do so voluntarily."
"Okay, I understand." Zhu Zhen clapped his hands happily: "So they will use the name of the Yuan army to attack Zhao, right?"
"It's probably like this, and it doesn't rule out that they may change their plans at short notice." Liu Bowen patched up. The fourth rule of the magic stick is to never say everything to your heart's content.
"Mr. Guanzhong, what do you think?" Zhu Zhen asked Luo Guanzhong again.
"Absolutely." Robben nodded and said, "The Ming Cult is better. The White Lotus Cult particularly likes the Taoism of Gods, the Innocent Old Mother, and the 'Vacuum Hometown'."
As he spoke, he smiled at Zhu Zhen and said, "Looking at the wording in these three letters, it's almost likely that the Ming Cult convened this time, and the convener is probably an old acquaintance of His Highness."
"Stone protector?" Zhu Zhen immediately thought of the fish that slipped through the net.
"He is the leader of the Ming Cult now." Luo Guanzhong nodded and said: "Before the Ming Cult uprising last year, he first went to Jiangnan to contact the believers and prepare to respond. As a result, King Ming was a squib and the uprising failed, so he became the new leader of the Ming Cult.
"
"Disrespect, disrespect," Zhu Zhen said to Hu Chai.
"Whether he wants to secure his position or he really wants revenge, he has been chasing me for more than a year." Luo Guanzhong said with a complicated expression: "I didn't expect that he hasn't delayed his business yet."
"Then let's settle this grudge." Zhu Zhen said solemnly: "I have gone back to the palace to report."
"Your Highness, please." Luo Guanzhong bowed to say goodbye.
"Sir, please stay at my master's place first." Zhu Zhen said rudely: "It's not safe outside after all."
"I really think of it as my own home..." Lao Liu couldn't help but complain, but he didn't object.
"I can guarantee my own safety." Luo Guanzhong declined out of pride.
Zhu Zhen waved his hand and said: "I have appointed you to be the companion of the Prince of Chu's Mansion, subject to the control of the king. You must not refuse, otherwise I will not publish a book for you."
"..." Luo Guanzhong didn't know what to say.
Lao Liu winked at Lao Liu again and said, "Master?"
"Okay, okay." Liu Bowen said helplessly to Luo Guanzhong: "I order you to stay."
"Hey, I obey." Lao Luo then reluctantly agreed.
"Haha, that's right. Okay, I'm leaving." Only then did Lao Liu leave happily.
~~
When he returned to the palace and reported it to the emperor's brother, the prince quickly took him to see the saint.
Zhu Yuanzhang had already received Liu Ying's report, and he was also very concerned about this matter... Isn't this nonsense? It was the safety of his four sons.
"How's it going? Did Mr. Liu decipher the secret message?" Boss Zhu's confidence in Liu Bowen has always been ridiculously high.
"It's been deciphered." Zhu Zhen placed three pieces of paper in front of his father.
After reading it, Zhu Yuanzhang punched the imperial court with a heavy fist, his face turned into the color of pig liver and said: "You really don't know life and death, you dare to leak the prince's whereabouts and let the Mingjiao assassinate them! Check it out for me, and I won't let anyone suspected.
, it’s better to be in vain than indulge in it!”
"Father, please take it easy in advance." The prince frowned and said, "The best thing to do is to find a way to let the second son and the others return safely."
"Don't worry about them." Zhu Yuanzhang said confidently: "They are already excellent officers, leading the most elite five hundred feather forest guards. They are still within their own borders. No matter what situation they encounter, they should return safely.
That’s right.”
The prince was speechless, okay, here it comes again... He said no, opened his mouth and pushed the child into the fire pit.
"Concentrate your efforts here and catch all the traitors in one go!" Zhu Yuanzhang said without any doubt: "Lao Liu, I will leave this matter to you! Do you have the confidence?"
