Yang Fan led his men to escort Zhu Zhaoyan down. Seeing that the high-spirited prince had become a prisoner today, he felt quite emotional.
At this time, Zhu Zhaoyan had already woken up. His vitality and blood foundation had been knocked out, and his white hair was mottled like old age.
"hehe……"
There was an inexplicable sad laughter coming from his mouth, which made people's hearts tighten when they heard it.
Zhu Zhaoyan's mood at this moment is difficult to describe in words.
He first cut off his Taoist path to immortality, and then his martial arts Qi and Blood barrier. At this moment, his heart was filled with despair, his teeth were biting on his lips, and his mouth was full of blood.
"Father, you are so cruel!"
He has thoroughly figured out that the reason why Zhu Gaolie kept him until today is to promote the "Great Edict" and use his life as the introduction of "The Great Edict"!
Despair, complete despair.
If he still has cultivation, he can still think of how to escape. Now he is just a useless person who can only close his eyes and wait for death.
He couldn't help but the memories flowing through his mind.
When he was young, he was attracted by the Five Poison Sect and got a secret strategy in his secret pavilion. It was actually a secret strategy to break through the imperial dragon energy law!
The content is bloody and weird, cruel and cruel, it is the art of blood replacement and grafting!
Of course, there are also side effects, that is, the Da Ming Dragon Qi in his body will drop significantly.
However, he still practiced this secret method, and even the Five Poison Sect was extremely cooperative with him, providing the bloodline of countless Taoist geniuses!
I don’t know how many people died during this period, but he finally found a suitable bloodline, broke through the shackles of dragon energy, and got the opportunity to practice Taoism!
At that time, he had great ambitions and planned to become the immortal emperor of Ming Dynasty!
Of course, in exchange, the Five Poison Sect will also become the state religion of the Ming Dynasty!
Unfortunately, now everything is in vain.
"Everything is in vain!"
Zhu Zhaoyan lowered his head with a ferocious expression.
Of course, he still has one last glimmer of hope, that is, five The Poison Cult will come to save him.
"They will definitely come back!"
He was like a drowning man, clinging to this straw and not daring to let go. Even thinking about it could cheer him up a bit.
At this time, Yang Fan also returned outside, saw Tao Ying at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward.
"See father-in-law."
"Well, the people have been locked up?"
"Replying to my father-in-law, I have already ordered heavy troops to guard you. There will be no mistakes."
"That's good."
Tao Ying nodded.
Yang Fan looked at his calm expression and couldn't help but ask: "Eunuch, does the emperor really want to kill him?"
As the saying goes, "Tiger poison cannot eat its seeds." No matter how much Zhu Gaolie wanted to implement the "Great Edict" and reshape the harsh punishment law, he could not commit the crime of killing his own son!
Although Zhu Zhaoyan deserves to be killed, there has always been a default rule in the past that a doctor cannot be punished. Now he actually wants to execute a prince in public. This makes Yang Fan couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he died as a substitute?
However, Tao Ying's answer broke his fantasy: "He will definitely die."
"Why?"
"Your Majesty cut off his hair and took over as head of state that day..."
Tao Ying looked at his confidant and calmly told what happened that day. Naturally, he thought that Yang Fan was also prepared in his heart and knew Zhu Gaolie's determination to implement the "Great Edict".
Sure enough, Yang Fan understood it after listening to it.
Zhu Gaolie has accomplished this, so Zhu Zhaoyan must be dead. I just hope that no one will get mad and do something unwise tomorrow!
At this moment, a man ran over and handed a letter to Tao Ying.
Tao Ying unfolded the secret letter and scanned the entire content at a glance. Yang Fan stood beside him and also saw the letter.
Content: "Concubine Yun, the biological mother of the Seventh Prince, committed suicide in the Hall of Supreme Harmony."
"hiss!"
Yang Fan's expression remained unchanged, but he took a deep breath.
However, Tao Ying showed no expression and calmly crushed the secret message and said, "By the way, today your Majesty promoted Eunuch Jia to the position of head of the East Factory. The appointment has begun to be communicated downwards. You should pay attention."
"Foreign leader?"
Yang Fan was shocked, this title sounded extraordinary upon hearing it.
"Yes, from now on, Eunuch Jia will also be responsible for supervising the "Da Gao" matter." Tao Ying's eyes were slightly dark and dark, "You and I should act cautiously under his command. The new official will be appointed with three fires, and our family does not want to be burned.
On your head."
"Thank you, father-in-law, for the tip."
Yang Fan quickly thanked him.
In fact, when Jia Shi'an and others arrived just now, he was vaguely aware of it.
After all, Jia Shi'an's aura of one person taking the lead was obviously different from the past. Unexpectedly, he was promoted to the head of the East Factory by Zhu Gaolie, which greatly divided Peng An's authority.
From now on, outside the imperial city, wouldn't it be Jia Shi'an who has the final say on matters in Dongchang?
Throughout the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, there was an undercurrent in the divine capital. Not only was Prince Zhu Zhaoyan imprisoned, there were hundreds of other powerful and wealthy businessmen and court ministers who were detained for execution!
The once high-ranking nobles and nobles have now become prisoners of the lower classes.
Dongchang, Xichang, and Jinyiwei were arresting and killing people everywhere, as if they were robbing people. Some people in the whole world were panicking.
Many people who have not been arrested are also worried, fearing that they will be affected.
On a small building facing the street.
Zhu Zhaoting and Zhu Qi sat opposite each other. Through the open window, they could see a group of Dongchang factory guards rushing into an official residence, as if they were in a deserted place.
"Your Majesty's move may put everyone in danger!"
Zhu Qinren I couldn't help but sigh.
Zhu Zhaoting was silent for a moment: "Since my father acted like this, he must have his own considerations."
Zhu Qi's lips moved. Looking at Zhu Zhaoting's appearance, some words were left unsaid. He just nodded and said, "Ting'er, you should make some preparations early."
After saying that, he took a deep look at Zhu Zhaoting, then stood up and left.
At the same time, an old monk wearing cassocks suddenly walked in from outside. He just walked past Zhu Qi, but Zhu Qi walked out of the door as if he had not seen this person.
Zhu Zhaoting originally looked worried, but after seeing this person, he finally slowly dispersed.
"Lord Buddha, you are finally here."
"The prince invited me, how dare I not come?"
Liao Fan smiled slightly, his face full of compassion.
This person turned out to be Liao Fan, the abbot of Fahua Temple at that time. After he became a Buddha, his body was smashed to pieces by the illusory Buddha in the sky, and he had to flee with his soul.
Now, although he has still not returned to his full glory, the large sum of money provided by Zhu Zhaoting has restored most of his strength, at least completely stabilizing the realm of the living Buddha.
Similar to the Tianshi Pass of Taoism, the large and small passages of Buddhism are also five passes. One pass is the monk king, the third pass is the king of Dharma, and the completion of the five passes is the resident Buddha or Arhat.
Because Liaofan is the Mahayana pass of cultivation, its fruition status is the Buddha in the World.
Zhu Zhaoting nodded: "The Great Edict will be promulgated to the world tomorrow. I wonder if the Buddha has any suggestions?"
"Thoughts sometimes come to naught. If you don't think about it, you just need to wait quietly. When the situation changes and the country changes color, I can congratulate Your Highness in advance."
Liao Fan said something Zen, and then smiled lightly.
Zhu Zhaoting nodded, his expression showing compassion.
"It seems that I have no choice but to let my father do whatever he wants for a while."
