Datong Fucheng is very large. For ordinary people, this is definitely the largest city that most people will see in their lives.
Even if you look at the entire daimyo, a prefectural city is definitely not a small place.
Especially after the drought, all the refugees from Datong Prefecture were flocking to Fucheng.
This also caused the population of Datong Prefecture to increase dramatically.
At this time, in Datong Prefecture, the number of people living in the city and in the refugee camps outside is probably over 300,000.
Among so many people, I want to find someone who is hiding.
If it's not like finding a needle in a haystack, it's not far off.
Sometimes, Chen Xueying couldn't help but admire the former leader of the White Lotus Sect.
That guy is simply a rebellious genius. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, almost all important cities have spies personally set up by the leader.
In many relatively remote towns, White Lotus has even penetrated into all aspects of the government.
This gives Chen Xueying a feeling of getting twice the result with half the effort when doing many things.
As long as you give an order, you can always find someone to do something in the White Lotus Sect.
But even so, he was searching for someone in Datong Mansion aimlessly.
It is still a very difficult thing.
After Tang Wenlu conveyed Chen Xueying's order, she gradually calmed down.
She worriedly said to Chen Xueying: "Although we know the news about Zhu Yuanzhang, but..."
After hesitating several times, Tang Wenlu finally expressed her worries: "Your Majesty, Chen thinks we should focus on Zhu Han first. As long as we plan well, it is not impossible to kill the pig man."
"But if you want to find the hospitalization certificate in Datong Mansion, I just don't think it is a simple matter."
"If we miss the opportunity to kill Zhu Han in order to find Zhu Yuanzhang, it will be more of a loss than a gain."
Chen Xueying was not as angry as Tang Wenlu expected.
He nodded expressionlessly and said, "What you said makes sense."
"Zhu Han is not an easy person to deal with. Even if we try our best, we may not be able to defeat him."
"If you are distracted to do other things, it will be even more difficult to kill him."
"And Zhu Yuanzhang's whereabouts are unpredictable. After he came to Datong Mansion, he never met Zhu Han at all."
"Even if we want to pinpoint Zhu Yuanzhang's location through the news over there, we can't."
"Continue to spend a lot of time and energy to find Zhu Yuanzhang's whereabouts."
"In the end, nothing can be accomplished. Instead, there is a high possibility that everything will come to nothing."
Tang Wenlu nodded repeatedly: "Your Majesty is wise, so I think that instead of looking for Zhu Yuanzhang, we should find a way to deal with Zhu Han first."
"Without Zhu Han's assistance, Zhu Yuanzhang, that stinky beggar, would never have become emperor."
"As long as there is no more sweating, we can slowly plan for Zhu Ming's kingdom."
"After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he acted rebelliously and was cruel and unkind. Many people were already dissatisfied with him."
"If we don't kill Zhu Yuanzhang, our overall situation may be better."
In the eyes of Tang Wenlu, or in the eyes of most people in this Ming Dynasty.
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang was able to conquer the world and establish the Ming Dynasty, 99% of the credit must be attributed to Zhu Han.
Lao Zhu's own greatness was ignored by these people.
But not everyone thinks so.
At least Chen Xueying's vision is much better than Tang Wenlu's.
"If you see Zhu Yuanzhang so clearly, you are totally wrong."
"This person can climb from a beggar to a position of domination in the world. There is only one such person from ancient times to the present."
"Zhu Yuanzhang has countless capable people. Whether it is Li Shanchang or Hu Weiyong, they are both extremely smart people."
"Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Lan Yu and other powerful generals are also loyal to Zhu Yuanzhang."
"As for Zhu Han, let alone him. Although this guy is despicable, we have to admit that he is a very powerful guy."
"Anyone picked at random among these people is an outstanding person. But they are loyal to Zhu Yuanzhang."
"This alone is far beyond what ordinary people can do."
Seeing that Tang Wenlu was still a little unconvinced, Chen Xueying thought about it and said one more thing.
"You may not know that not long ago, Zhu Yuanzhang had the idea of abdicating the throne to Zhu Han."
"It was just that Zhu Han refused to accept it, so Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to give up the idea."
Upon hearing the news, Tang Wenlu was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the ground.
From ancient times to the present, as long as things like imperial power are involved, there will be no end.
Whether it's parents, brothers or close friends, there is absolutely no sympathy at all.
Li Shimin, the emperor of the ages, also had the stain of killing his brother.
The shadows of axes and candles during the founding of the Zhao and Song Dynasties all reflected the cruelty of the struggle for imperial power.
Even if they are blood brothers, if they dare to touch the imperial power, they will fight to the death.
But is this a magical situation?
Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of Zhu Ming, actually wanted to abdicate his throne to his younger brother?
If Zhu Yuanzhang had no heirs, Tang Wenlu would still understand his thoughts.
But Zhu Yuanzhang clearly had a son, and there was more than one.
It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son, Zhu Biao, was very good in both study and ability.
Under such circumstances, Zhu Yuanzhang actually wanted to give up his throne?
No matter how she thought about it, Tang Wenlu could not understand Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts.
As for Zhu Han's rejection, it was expected.
Anyone with a right mind would not believe that the emperor would abdicate the throne to him.
If he really agreed to this stupidly, he might not be able to leave the palace at all, and he would be chopped into pieces.
Frowning and thinking for a moment, Tang Wenlu then smiled coldly: "The purpose of Zhu Yuanzhang's doing this is probably just to test Zhu Han, right?"
"If Zhu Han dared to show any desire for the throne at that time, I'm afraid Zhu Yuanzhang would not let him go."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The more this guy spoke, the more confident he became, and his eyes even shone with light: "Just like Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty putting pressure on Zhuge Liang in Baidi City
Same."
"What you say about replacing it is actually just a trial."
Some people are like this, they have dark minds and everything they see is dark.
Chen Xueying was not interested in these things. She raised her head and looked in the direction of the Datong government office: "Whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Han, their death is the most beneficial thing for our holy religion."
"So while searching for Zhu Yuanzhang's whereabouts, Zhu Han's actions must not stop."
"If possible, kill both of them together."
"If we can achieve this goal, no one in this world will be able to stop our Holy Religion."
As he spoke, Chen Xueying's style suddenly changed, and she said with a sneer: "It doesn't matter even if we fail. Anyway, we have already prepared an escape route. We just leave Datong Mansion directly."
"No matter what the outcome is, it will make the Dog Court very busy."
"That's it." Tang Wenlu suddenly realized.
It turns out that this is the idea that the prince came from. If this is the case, then it might not be a bad idea to give it a try.
"Your Majesty is wise, even Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han are as cunning as tigers, and they were played by you in the middle of applause."
In the prison of Datong Prefecture, a special group of prisoners have just been sent in.
These prisoners were none other than the monks of Ci'en Temple.
It doesn’t matter whether they knew about it or not.
After all, the Stone Buddha incident happened in their Ci'en Temple, so naturally it was impossible to pretend that nothing happened.
These people are all ordinary young monks who eat fast and chant Buddha's name on weekdays. How have they ever seen such a terrifying place as a prison?
Everyone was trembling with fear, their faces were pale, and they huddled together subconsciously.
The only one whose facial color changed was the abbot.
Even he squinted his eyes slightly and kept chanting Amitabha.
There was a crashing sound, and Jin Yiwei untied the chain of the cell door.
"Hurry in."
Although the monks were afraid of the dark prison, the menacing guards in imperial robes around them were obviously more intimidating.
Like a group of sheep, they were easily herded into the cell.
"Be honest with me. If you dare to be dishonest, don't blame us for being rude to you." Jin Yiwei threatened the monk fiercely before turning and leaving.
As soon as he walked out of sight, the monks started talking in a panic.
"Abbot, what should we do now?"
"Those people won't kill us, right?"
"We don't know anything. They can't accuse people so unjustly."
"Who is harming us? Don't let me catch him, otherwise..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a call from the Buddha interrupted the complaining monk: "Amitabha, don't use your anger precepts. All this is the fate of our Ci'en Temple."
Even though he was in such a desperate situation, Master Huici seemed very calm.
He can even calm these panicked young monks.
Under the abbot's comfort, the young monks gradually calmed down.
Soon everyone was sitting cross-legged around the abbot, closing their eyes and chanting Buddhist scriptures.
Their reactions were completely different from other prisoners in the prison, and they immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Some criminals with malicious intentions laughed and joked: "Oh, what day is it today? How come you even arrested a monk?"
The prisoners in several other rooms also started to boo, "You monks must have committed sexual misconduct, and that's why you were arrested by the court, right?"
"I know there aren't any good monks these days."
These prisoners are not good birds. Seeing that the monks ignored them, these people not only did not restrain themselves, but even went too far.
The saying "the world is brighter when you take a step back" has absolutely no market in prison.
If I take a step back from you here, I will only be bullied to death.
Several younger monks couldn't bear it anymore, opened their eyes and glared angrily.
Those prisoners would not take a few young monks seriously.
Instead, he became more and more unscrupulous.
"Hey, look, this little mage is angry. I'm so scared."
"Look at this little monk's appearance. Is he planning to let Buddha punish us?"
"If there really was a Buddha in this world, I'm afraid my grievances would have been cleared long ago."
"Bah! Wang Mazi, what's wrong with a scum like you? Not only did you cuckold others, but you actually killed your whole family after being discovered. People like you deserve to go to the eighteenth level of hell."
Faced with the curses from others, Wang Mazi not only did not get angry, but said triumphantly: "Don't wrong a good person. This is not what I did at all. It's just that the current person here is confused."
He said it had nothing to do with him, but the corner of his lips curled into such a proud sneer.
But it seems to be telling everyone, you are right, this is what I did, so what? You have the ability to bite me.
At the end, he retorted: "Besides, it's okay if others criticize me. You, who robbed on the street in broad daylight, have what qualifications do you have to criticize me?"
The person who accused Wang Mazi broke his guard and said through gritted teeth: "Wang Mazi, you've stopped spewing nonsense. Now I've really suffered an unreasonable disaster, okay?"
Although his expression looked more sincere than Wang Mazi's.
But among the criminals present, who doesn’t know what a piece of shit he is?
Also, I will never believe a word of nonsense from him.
These guys were talking to each other, and soon they started to quarrel, and the quarrel became more and more fierce, and all kinds of vulgar language could be heard constantly.
More and more people are annoyed by their scolding.
There are not only monks from Ci'en Temple here, but also other prisoners.
"You bastards, stop talking." One of the tougher prisoners couldn't help but curse loudly.
It's a pity that his words not only failed to stop the quarrel, but he was also implicated in it.
"Who do you think you are? If we don't quarrel, we won't quarrel?"
"We told you that we have nothing to do with you. If you don't shut up, do you believe it or not? I hope you won't be able to survive the day when Qiu Hou asks to be killed?"
"Come if you have the guts, and let's see who can't wait until that day. You bastards, if you don't shut up, I will kill you all."
Good guy, the prisoners who stood up to stop the quarrel also quarreled with those prisoners, making it even more lively now.
"Be still!" Abbot Huici was unmoved. He just said this lightly, then closed his eyes and continued to chant.
With him taking the lead, the angry monks gradually calmed down and began to continue chanting.
However, there were still two of these monks who looked a little unusual.
What the monks at Ci'en Temple didn't know was that since they entered the prison in Datong Mansion, someone had been watching their every move.
These two monks behaved differently from other monks, so naturally they couldn't hide it from their eyes.
"It seems that the White Lotus Sect rebels hiding in Ci'en Temple are the two of them who are right." Gao Fei sneered triumphantly.
Deng Yun hit him rudely: "How do you know? It's just the two of them. Maybe they are just afraid of the environment here."
