Situ Pan, King of Yan, had just received the good news that General Gan Lei had discovered a huge gold mine in North America, and was busy discussing immigration and mining. Suddenly, he received a letter from King Wu, and he was shocked and broke into a cold sweat. He immediately called a few confidants to discuss for several days.
He sent a eunuch and traveled all night to the Kingdom of Wu.
This eunuch's surname was Ma, and he was one of the earliest masters acquired by King Yan. This man, with a frosty face, paid homage to King Wu, and asked him, "Where is Zhen Deren's son?" King Wu ordered people to go to Zhen to hide the pearls.
When he came, he was still kowtowing to the King of Wu. Eunuch Ma, who was standing next to the King of Wu, suddenly raised his sleeve and shot an arrow from his sleeve and flew over. Zhen Zangzhu rolled to avoid it, and Eunuch Ma fired darts with both hands. Zhen Zang
Zhu Fang had already reached into his arms to fish out the dragon stick, twirled it in the air, and scattered the two darts. Before Zhen Zangzhu could get up from the ground, Eunuch Ma had already jumped up to him, and the two of them were standing next to King Wu.
Come and join hands.
King Wu had already been surrounded by a circle of guards armed with guns. Fortunately, his hall was very large, big enough for the two of them to play. King Wu understood what the guards who saw Zhen Zangzhu fighting with the Green Forest Man at Zhen's house said -
- I couldn't really see clearly, only two figures could be seen. Then suddenly I heard the sound of swords clashing, and I don't know when the two of them drew their swords. The two of them didn't fight for too long, and Eunuch Ma calmly drank: "
That's all." He jumped out of the circle with a feint. Zhen Zangzhu also took the move and stood up. As soon as he said it, the knife in the eunuch horse's palm struck at the King of Wu like lightning. Before the King of Wu could see clearly, he heard "
"Dang" and "啗啷啷" were heard twice, and Eunuch Ma's long sword fell to the ground.
The guards around King Wu had formed a human wall, with dozens of guns pointed at Eunuch Ma. Eunuch Ma looked at them coldly for a long time, pointed at them and said: "What about fire and guns? The miscellaneous family is like a leader.
I really want to take the life of King Wu, but he is already dead now."
Zhen Zangzhu folded her arms and said leisurely: "This 'Miscellaneous Family', you didn't succeed."
Eunuch Ma looked him up and down for a while before saying: "The Za family has no intention of assassinating the King of Wu, otherwise you, a wild man like you, would not be able to stop the Za family." Then he said to the King of Wu, "Your Majesty, Master Yiseng is the general.
This person was trained as an Ouchi guard. But he only has the skills of an Ouchi guard and has no intention of protecting him."
Zhen Zangzhu's eyes widened slightly: "Do you recognize my master?"
"I don't recognize it," said Eunuch Ma, "I just heard it." He waved to the people surrounding King Wu.
The King of Wu was a little surprised and confused. He thought for a moment before waving his hands and ordering the guards to disperse. He then said: "The King of Yan sent you here because he has something important to do."
Eunuch Ma looked around. King Wu did not dare to let the guards leave. Eunuch Ma said: "Your Majesty, it is best if you only leave Master Zhen."
Zhen Zangzhu clasped her fists at the guard leader: "General, just hand the prince over to the subordinate. Even if the official dies, the prince will be safe."
Eunuch Ma hummed: "The gangsters in the green forest are angry. You should tell the prince these things."
Zhen Zangzhu hurriedly bowed to King Wu again. King Wu waved his hand: "That's all." He ordered him to retreat. Zhen Zangzhu raised his eyes and looked at the leader of the guard, who clasped his fists slightly towards him.
After the room became quiet, Eunuch Ma looked at King Wu and then at Zhen Zangzhu, and said clearly: "Today someone has robbed the Supreme Emperor and stolen the Maitreya Cult and Tianshi Dao tokens hidden in the imperial mausoleum by the late Emperor. Xining County first."
The king is theirs."
King Wu was stunned and couldn't come to his senses for a long time. But Zhen Zangzhu asked first: "Is it someone from the Maitreya Sect, the Celestial Master or someone else?"
Eunuch Ma shook his head: "I don't know. At the moment, it seems that the person in charge is probably the Maitreya Sect. They were probably responsible for the death of the King of Pre-Qin and a group of princes last year."
King Wu cried out: "What?! Aren't the Huashan Taoist priests bandits?"
Eunuch Ma said: "The State of Qin said that the Taoist priests of Huashan colluded with Qin. The eunuchs of the royal palace kidnapped the princes to extort their votes, and the King of Qin died of illness due to grief. We found out that it was the pre-Qin king who fell into someone else's scheme and was treated like a fool; no.
Xining can't do it." Now that the matter has come to this, he doesn't hide it anymore. The grandpa planned to dig up other people's tokens in the late emperor's mausoleum until Eunuch Dai Quan revealed the Malishan mechanism, from beginning to end.
Once.
King Wu's eyes nearly bulged out, and he had mixed feelings in his heart. Zhen Zangzhu did not give in too much, his face was like a dark cloud in the sky. After a long time, Zhen Zangzhu said first: "According to what Eunuch Dai said, the Emperor has not had time to go.
After taking something, he disappeared."
Eunuch Ma nodded: "He planned to pick it up after the late emperor's funeral."
Zhen Zangzhu thought: "My father hid me, no one should know about it."
Eunuch Ma said: "Dai Quan said that your father had another wife. Because many people in the Malishan area knew that his mother had an affair with your father, the late emperor sent people to kill him more than twenty years ago." Zhenzang.
Zhu suddenly shuddered. Eunuch Ma looked at him and said, "But no one knows about your Majesty. Master Zhen really 'hides' Zhu."
Zhen Zangzhu said coldly: "It's not easy for me to stay alive." Then she asked, "How did my master die?"
Eunuch Ma shook his head: "I don't know, the death is really unexpected." A flash of anger flashed in Zhen Zangzhu's eyes. Eunuch Ma added, "Now that he has the Supreme Emperor and countless members of the Maitreya Sect, it is the easiest way to rebel.
but."
King Wu thought for a long time and said, "What does Lao Jiu mean?"
Eunuch Ma said: "The whole world will work together to eradicate these two religions."
King Wu said: "Didn't he send troops to suppress the bandits in Jiangxi? It would be better to eliminate the Maitreya Sect in Yuanzhou."
Eunuch Ma said: "It's just that it's difficult to distinguish between ordinary good men and women and Maitreya believers."
King Wu grinned: "This is easy. Let them worship Buddha and Bodhisattva, but not Maitreya. Those who refuse to step on Maitreya's head are Maitreya believers."
Zhen Zangzhu hurriedly said: "Maitreya Bodhisattva is also a Bodhisattva. Just remove all the Maitreya statues in the temple so that they have nowhere to worship."
Eunuch Ma asked: "What if we worship secretly?"
King Wu said: "Neighbors can report. If a Maitreya believer is reported, the property of that family will belong to the person who reported it."
Zhen Zangzhu took a breath; Eunuch Ma's eyes lit up, he gave a thumbs up and praised: "Your Majesty, what a plan!"
Zhen Zangzhu thought to himself and said: "Although this plan is good, it can easily be framed."
King Wu said: "The Yamen has prepared a statue of Maitreya. Anyone who says he has been wronged will be insulted, kicked and urinated on."
Zhen Zangzhu said hurriedly: "It is deeply inappropriate to insult the gods and Buddhas."
King Wu said lazily: "You don't care about gods and Buddhas before the country." Zhen Zangzhu twitched the corner of her mouth. Really? Your father even dug his own father's grave. King Wu said again, "It's just that we have to send someone to Yuanzhou."
Cool official."
Eunuch Ma smiled and clapped his hands and said: "Since ancient times, there has been no shortage of cruel officials in the world."
King Wu said: "I'm afraid it's not just Yuanzhou. Since the Grandfather and Grandfather can't wipe him out, I think the whole country must have their minions."
Eunuch Ma said: "Therefore, we have to work together with the princes of each family." He sighed, "The world has been divided, but it is not easy."
Zhen Zangzhu said: "In my opinion, these two evil cults can only be cured if the world is divided. But it cannot be cured if the world is unified."
Eunuch Ma wondered: "How can you see it?"
Zhen Zangzhu said: "Covering a cult is an extremely difficult and labor-intensive task, and it doesn't bring much profit. How many local officials are willing to do their best? They just say they can't accept a few bucks from the leader of the cult. Now that the world has been divided, everyone
The prince only has a small amount of space in his own hands, and it all belongs to his own family." He suddenly stopped.
Eunuch Ma smiled indifferently and nodded lightly. The Maitreya Cult has the Supreme Emperor in its hands, and the world was taken from the Supreme Emperor by the princes. When it comes to serious matters, the Supreme Emperor is the master of the world. No one can threaten the throne.
Dare to take it lightly. He looked at Zhen Zangzhu and said, "It's just that regardless of Maitreya's teaching of the Celestial Master, it has been hidden among the people for many years. It is really not easy."
Zhen Zangzhu felt a little uncomfortable when he saw her and said, "Wei Chen really doesn't know anything."
Eunuch Ma stared at it and smiled and said: "No problem. Since Lord Zhen is the orphan of Zhen Deren, this section alone can be used."
Zhen Zangzhu was confused and looked up at King Wu. King Wu asked: "If everything is gone, what use is he?"
Eunuch Ma said slowly: "They don't know if Zhen Deren left anything else. It may be a hint of something, such as the Celestial Master's Way, the burial place of the leader of the Maitreya Sect."
Zhen Zangzhu still didn't understand: "My father never left these."
"Does the Zajia know?" Eunuch Ma said dissatisfied, "Man said that I don't know, not even the late emperor."
Zhen Zangzhu frowned slightly, suddenly opened her eyes and shouted loudly: "My father-in-law, is he trying to lower his rank as bait?!"
Eunuch Ma shook his head and said, "Master Zhen is so capable that self-preservation is not a problem."
Zhen Zangzhu slapped the case: "Zhen is not a fat sheep left to be slaughtered!"
Eunuch Ma narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Of course Master Zhen is not a fat sheep, but Master Zhen is a tiger. As the saying goes, you can't touch the tiger's butt. If someone who is not afraid of death bumps into him, just bite him to death."
Zhen Zangzhu said flatly: "Wishful thinking!"
Just when King Wu was about to speak, Eunuch Ma waved his hand towards him, looked at Zhen Zangzhu and said: "Master Zhen, please think about it. Your Majesty knows too much. Even if you don't want to provoke the Maitreya Cult, there is no guarantee that the Maitreya Cult will not provoke you. Still.
It's better to set up an ambush early and wait for the rabbit." Zhen Zangzhu's face was as black as ink, and he gritted his teeth and said nothing. Eunuch Ma sighed softly, "Master Zhen, go back and think about it." He turned to look at King Wu. King Wu ordered Zhen Zangzhu to go down first.
.
Zhen Zangzhu bid farewell to the King of Wu and went out, and then invited the leader of the guard to come in. Eunuch Ma said with a smile: "This man is not bad." Then he said to the King of Wu, "It affects the world and cannot be left to him."
King Wu hesitated and said, "Is there any other way?"
Eunuch Ma said: "Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the dark. There is really no other way except to lure the snake out of the hole." Seeing that King Wu was reluctant to give up, he advised, "Your Majesty, Zhen Deren is the only son. Because he appeared in the lobby of Yingtian Mansion a few days ago.
Everyone knows that he has stolen the limelight. There is really no one else to blame for this matter. He brought two women to court, one of whom is as beautiful as a fairy. It takes less than half a month to spread the news all over the country. Who else does he expect not to know? He has not concealed it.
His own life experience." Nai paused and said, "Miscellaneous guesses, a master monk taught him martial arts, and this was his original intention."
King Wu's eyes jumped: "How do you know this?"
Eunuch Ma said, "Otherwise, why would a master monk teach him something for no reason? There has to be a purpose, right?" King Wu was silent. Eunuch Ma then said, "Is your prince now more trustworthy than the Za family? Can you ask this general to get out of here?" ?”
King Wu took a sip of tea and said, "If I can trust you, I can trust him too."
Eunuch Ma nodded: "Then the Za family will have to tell some secrets."
The King of Wu then discussed secretly with Eunuch Ma for several days. Only the leader of the guard was in front of the King of Wu, and no one else knew what the two of them said. One day, an envoy from the State of Lu came to see the King of Wu. The man was Liu Shu, the son of Liu Tong. It was sent, saying that the State of Lu did not send anyone to secretly investigate Mr. Zhen, and there might be some misunderstanding here. Eunuch Ma laughed as he listened and said: "It may not be a misunderstanding, but it may be a mistake. Liu General, please check your own people and don't let any ants get mixed in." King Wu then sent the people of Lu back and asked them to check on their own. Ten days later, Eunuch Ma returned to Beijing and brought one of King Wu's confidants with him. Then King Yan and King Wu sent envoys to various countries to discuss with the kings how to eliminate the Maitreya Sect.
Sure enough, as Zhen Zangzhu said, all the kings took this matter very seriously - the Supreme Emperor and the kings were no longer sworn in. The whole country began to investigate, as if passing through a sieve. Elsewhere, everything was generally in good order, which was better; only Jiangxi was still In order to suppress the bandits, there were not as many government officials as there were bandits, so it was the most difficult situation. The little saint in the Forbidden City then issued an imperial edict, appointing Su Tao, the prefect of Jingzhou, as the prefect of Jiangxi. Su Tao was unwilling at first, so the King of Yan sent an aide to persuade him. The words were so impassioned that Su Tao burst into tears, so he agreed. The King of Chu was naturally unwilling, but the Chu State was too small and had to rely on the Yan State to lead the way to North America to dig for gold, so he had to swallow his breath first. Let’s talk about it later.
In such a big event, unjust cases are inevitable. Countless people were framed and framed to vent their anger, and powerful officials took the opportunity to exploit the most powerful people. In the blink of an eye, countless people were bankrupted. Rangers from all over the country naturally jumped out to do justice for God. But after all, the number was too large. There were too few villains to be punished. And the rumors of gold mines in North America became more and more popular. Those families who had been wronged in vain had no way to seek justice and could not find a way to survive, so they came up with the idea of crossing the sea to dig for gold. It is better than selling oneself into slavery. Some people may have heard that many new factories have been built in the south and they can earn good wages by working, so they go south to look for work.
There were other gentlemen who traveled around writing petitions and complaints on behalf of the people. The government was busy searching for the Maitreya cult, so how could they have time to pay attention to them? The gentlemen cursed angrily, causing countless people to shed tears of gratitude. These gentlemen all came from the capital. They are all "revolutionary Freemasonry". Others asked what Freemasonry does. The gentlemen said: "To help the poor people in the world unite and fight against injustice! It should be noted that a poor person is the most bullied, and a group of poor people can even join the rich man." The master is afraid. If all the poor people in the world work together, the county magistrate will not dare to decide the case haphazardly."
Most of the officials heard about it, but no one took it seriously. What use could a few poor scholars and a group of ordinary people do? Some princes heard about it but did not pay attention. Nowadays, the Maitreya religion is important, and ordinary people are not as good as the Supreme Emperor. ? Since the government didn't care, the gentlemen just accepted it as acquiescence. Gradually, some smart and capable young men were selected as disciples in the local area, taught them revolutionary knowledge, and then introduced them to the Freemasonry. The princes were busy eradicating the Maitreya cult. During the period, Revolutionary Freemasonry gradually spread like weeds after the rain.
