Chapter 577: Soldiers surround Ci'en Temple

Although the current Datong Mansion doesn't seem that bad.

But that depressing atmosphere could make Liu Shenhong breathless.

Every time he went out of town for business, he felt as if he was about to be pierced by thousands of arrows.

If the situation cannot be contained, Liu Shenhong really doesn't know what will happen.

What puzzled Liu Shenhong was that Zhu Han had obviously invited the two people to Datong Mansion, but Zhu Han only arranged for them to stay there, and made no further moves after that.

"Don't worry yet." He sweated and waved his hands with a smile: "As long as the two of them are here, all the problems in Datong Mansion will not be a problem."

"What we need now is to wait for those guys from the White Lotus Sect to take action."

Liu Shenhong was shocked and turned pale, and quickly advised: "My lord, you must not do this!"

The current situation is already so tense. If we still wait for those guys from the White Lotus Sect to take action, God knows what will happen?

In the reception office outside Fucheng, Zhu Yuanzhang also had the same worries.

Although he was outside the city, he was not particularly clear about what was going on in Datong Mansion.

However, Gao Fei, who often goes to the city, knows what is happening in the city.

During this period of time when the Stone Buddha was born and rumors were flying all over the sky in Datong Mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang was somewhat aware of it.

But the more he understood, the more confused he became.

Things have reached this point, why doesn't Zhu Han do anything?

"What exactly does he want to do?" Zhu Yuanzhang's brows almost knitted together.

He is a person who can judge people very accurately. It is precisely with this ability that Zhu Yuanzhang in history also established the Ming Dynasty even though he did not have the help of Zhu Han.

Lao Zhu asked himself, no matter how deeply he hides someone, he can still see them clearly.

But there are exceptions to everything, and his own brother is the only one Zhu Yuanzhang can't understand.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very at ease with Zhu Han's character.

From beginning to end, my brother has been a kind-hearted guy and has never had any special ambitions.

If it weren't for assisting himself, he probably wouldn't have come up with so many things at all.

But the more this happened, the more confused Zhu Yuanzhang became.

The current situation in Datong Mansion will not be a joke once chaos breaks out.

My younger brother is not the kind of person who puts the entire Datong Mansion in danger just to catch a few rebels from the White Lotus Sect.

Several times, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but want to reveal his identity and asked Gao Fei to take him to see Zhu Han and ask him what he wanted to do with this brat.

But in the end, Lao Zhu gave up these thoughts.

Now they are still understanding that the Lotus Sect is secretly there. Lao Zhu dare not bet that on his way to see Zhu Han, the White Lotus Sect will find his traces?

Once his identity is known, the White Cult will definitely kill him here at all costs.

After all, as long as he dies, the seemingly powerful Ming Dynasty may soon fall apart.

After all, the current Ming Empire is still too short. Although there are various forces crisscrossing the court, these forces have their own purposes, and not all of them are thinking about the Ming Dynasty.

If another thirty to fifty years pass and the generation born in the Ming Dynasty grows up, the situation will naturally change.

But now, once something unexpected happens to Zhu Yuanzhang, I'm afraid it will be really troublesome.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang did not dare to risk his life easily now. He was obviously in a hurry and almost couldn't eat anymore, but he still couldn't do anything.

In comparison, Queen Ma was as stable as a mountain. She comforted Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile and said: "Chongba, don't you believe in Qiwu the most?"

"Although this matter is a bit tricky, I believe Qiwu will definitely handle it."

"If nothing else, when have you ever seen Qi Wu suffer a loss?"

"Although the current situation looks very dangerous, I believe that Qiwu must have already had a way to deal with it."

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little unconvinced: "What do you know? If these rumors spread before they spread, it is really not difficult to solve them."

"But now, rumors are flying all over the sky. It will be extremely difficult to stop them at this time."

"When I went out yesterday, people were already discussing this matter even in the refugee camp."

"Even if he has his own ideas and is deliberately letting these rumors go, this is a bit too indulgent."

"We are afraid that he will be overconfident and play with fire and burn himself."

Empress Ma smiled and said, "I think Qi Wu is much more stable than some people."

Although they were not named, there are only two of them here, so it is self-evident who the certain people Queen Ma mentioned are referring to.

"Have you heard, Old Chang?" a voice came from far away.

Even before the person arrived, he already knew who was coming just by hearing the voice.

Gao Fei rushed into the courtyard excitedly: "As expected of His Royal Highness, you have easily resolved the White Lotus Sect's conspiracy."

"I was worried before that His Royal Highness could not control the situation."

"Now it seems that the worries are completely unfounded."

Gao Fei also swept away the decadence of the past, and his face was full of excitement.

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows. He couldn't think of any way to reverse the situation in this situation.

Even if he has no better choice for the time being, Lao Zhu's only way is to delay as much time as possible and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

As long as it has overwhelming power, the White Lotus Sect's little tricks are not worth mentioning at all.

But this method may be a bit difficult for Zhu Han.

If you want to mobilize troops, you must obtain the consent of the court.

And now that he is not in Yingtian, Zhu Han will definitely face many obstacles if he wants to mobilize his troops.

Although my son has good character and knowledge, he is sometimes a little indecisive and easily influenced by others.

"What method did His Royal Highness use to make you so excited?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked pretending not to care.

Gao Fei did not answer his question. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and said jokingly: "Old Chang, don't you pride yourself on being smart? How about you take a guess?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless. Even he couldn't guess what Zhu Han wanted to do.

Lao Zhu knows Gao Fei's character, and the more he continues to question him, the easier it will be for him to figure it out.

So I pretended not to care at the moment: "If you don't want to tell me, sir, forget it, I will know it in a short time anyway."

This time, Gao Fei seemed to be constipated, and his face turned blue in discomfort.

"I'm not telling you, Lao Chang, don't you have any curiosity at all?"

"This matter is related to the comfort of our entire Datong Mansion. If one person fails, it will not be as simple as a dozen people."

"Maybe, our entire Datong Mansion will be buried with him."

Zhu Yuanzhang still looked unconcerned: "But didn't you say, my lord, His Royal Highness the King of England has already solved this matter."

"His Royal Highness's ability cannot be a lie, right?"

"Now that the matter has been resolved, what is there to worry about?"

Gao Fei was holding back chest pain, why is this guy Lao Chang so hateful?

"But a solution is a solution. Don't you want to know how His Royal Highness solved it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked innocent: "It doesn't matter if it's earlier or later. You'll know it soon anyway."

Gao Fei stamped his green foot: "Then don't you want to know what happened earlier?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head decisively: "I don't want to!"

"You..." Gao Fei was completely at his wits end now: "Forget it, forget it, don't think that I don't know that you are retreating to advance."

"But I am in a good mood today, so I will tell you what happened."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: "Sir, this is what you want to say, not what we want to hear..."

Gao Fei pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang angrily: "I insisted on telling you this, okay?"

"I'm telling you..."

In fact, Zhu Han's method was very simple. He just called back He Fengyu and Fang Hubin, who were digging pressure wells in various places in Datong Prefecture.

The reputation of the two of them in Datong Mansion can simply be described as skyrocketing.

While they were still there, people had already started building shrines for the two of them.

Living to become an immortal means these two guys.

Because the digging of water wells saved the lives of countless Datong people.

In the hearts of the people of Datongfu, the two of them are like river gods.

Although the stone Buddha in Ci'en Temple rises slowly from the ground every day, it seems extremely magical.

But compared with He Fengyu and Fang Hubin, who have countless lives, the gap is not even a little bit.

When the two of them appeared at Ci'en Temple, except for the most devout Buddhists,

Most of the people had changed from kneeling before the stone Buddha to worshiping the two of them.

Digging underground water veins is actually not a particularly magical ability.

After all, there are wells in many cities. Digging wells is actually similar to He Fengyu's identification of underground water veins.

It's just that most wells in this era cannot be dug too deep.

However, the pressurized water well created by He Fengyu and Fang Hubin can go deep into the ground and obtain deeper underground water sources.

At this critical moment, this technology is said to have saved countless lives.

Compared with this technology that truly revives human life, a stone Buddha that has not done anything is naturally incomparable.

That's all. The most important thing is that as soon as He Fengyu and Fang Hubin appeared, they went straight to the stone Buddha in Ci'en Temple.

Along the way, all the people who saw them willingly made way for them.

"My benefactor, my benefactor is here!"

"Everyone, please give way. My benefactor also wants to see the stone Buddha."

Even the abbot of Ci'en Temple came out to greet him personally after hearing the news of He Fengyu and Fang Hubin's arrival.

"The poor monk Huici has seen two benefactors. The two benefactors have countless living lives and have immeasurable merits. Amitabha!"

Deng Yun, the Jinyi Guardsman who followed He Fengyu and Fang Hubin to Ci'en Temple, had been observing the abbot of Ci'en Temple.

The host is about sixty years old and his beard is already gray.

The way he walked was shaky, giving people the feeling that he might go to see the Buddha at any time.

Being over sixty is considered an extraordinary age in this era.

If it were an ordinary person, let alone a grandson, he might even have a great-grandson.

Deng Yun even had some doubts. Is such an accomplished monk really related to the White Lotus Sect?

But if not... why did the White Lotus Sect choose Ci'en Temple as the location for this stone Buddha?

This thing is not that simple to make, not to mention the preliminary preparation work.

Even after the stone Buddha is unearthed, it still needs daily maintenance and watering.

It's not easy to hide such a big move from others.

Deng Yun didn't quite believe it if the abbot of Ci'en Temple didn't know anything about it.

No matter what you think in your heart, you still have to do what you have to do.

Deng Yun waved his hand directly: "Surround Ci'en Temple for me."

Immediately, the Jin Yiwei and the soldiers from Datong Prefecture, who were armed to the teeth, surrounded Ci'en Temple.

Separate the people outside the temple who are waiting to worship the stone Buddha from the people inside the temple who are worshiping the stone Buddha.

This scene shocked many people.

"Oh my God, what's going on? Why did you surround Ci'en Temple?"

Naturally, some people thought of the ups and downs rumors that have been spreading recently.

Immediately there was a buzz of discussion among the crowd.

"You said that the imperial court is now interested in Ci'en Temple. Could it be because of that incident?"

"You mean, Bai..."

In front of the imperial army, these people certainly did not dare to say these things without restraint.

Some people just said one word and then stopped talking, and some people didn't say anything at all, but kept scanning their eyes in the direction of Ci'en Temple.

The people listening naturally understood what they meant immediately.

"This must be the matter. Otherwise, why would you mobilize so many people?"

"There was no movement from the imperial court before. I thought I didn't care, but I didn't expect that the imperial court was also afraid."

"After all, this kind of thing is too sensitive. If it happens like when the Yellow River was built, wouldn't it really cause chaos in the world?"

"But if the imperial court takes action now, isn't it trying to hide the truth?"

"Why did you choose this time to do it? If it were me, it would definitely be at night when no one is around."

The people outside Ci'en Temple were relatively calm, after all, they were not surrounded by soldiers.

The people who came to worship the stone Buddha in the temple were completely panicked.

Ordinary people have heard all kinds of outrageous rumors.

I really don’t have any thoughts of rebellion.

After all, their lives are pretty good now.

Although it is not as good as before the drought, under such severe drought conditions, almost no one in Datong Prefecture has starved to death.

If this were done before, it would be almost impossible.

Now, just because I paid homage to a Buddha statue, I was surrounded by the imperial army.

God knows, did the imperial court regard them all as rebels?

Many people begged urgently.

"Sir, we were wronged!"

"Sir, we are not rebels. Please let us go."

The pleading voices became one in the blink of an eye.
