After a few words of teasing, Liu Sheng finally adjusted his mood, stared at the burnt lamb chops on the shelf with a fierce look, and gritted his teeth and said: "Tell me, how can I pass this level!"
Once Anyuan Hou recognized the situation, he made a decisive decision without any delay, which made Wang Xian feel at ease. He was really worried that this old guy would be full of loyal thoughts and unwilling to cooperate with him.
"Actually, it's not as bad as the Marquis imagined." Now that Liu Sheng came up, Wang Xian naturally stopped following him in circles and said in a deep voice: "I have sufficient evidence to show that the King of Han has a deep collusion with the White Lotus Sect, and even
The King of Han is the greatest contributor to the White Lotus Sect today. Without him instigating Ma Zhong and other Shandong generals, how could there have been the Hulukou Incident, and how could the White Lotus Sect have taken advantage of it, leading to the current situation that is out of control?"
"I understand everything you said, and the emperor won't understand it either, but he won't discuss it with us!" Liu Sheng sighed.
"There are some things that the emperor cannot just ignore if he wants." Wang Xian said in a deep voice: "Excuse me, Lord Marquis, where did the battle between the King of Han and the White Lotus Sect take place? Was it in the vassal state of the King of Han?"
"Boxing." Liu Sheng said softly: "It's natural to stay away from the vassal state of King Han." He understood what Wang Xian meant. The vassal king had no purpose and was not allowed to leave the vassal state, let alone fight outside the country. No one could violate this.
The iron rule!
"Where did the thousands of Mongolian cavalry in the King of Han's army come from?" Wang Xian asked: "Those Mongols are still in Shandong. The emperor can't just turn a blind eye, right?" Now the sea has been occupied by Zhang Jun's navy.
Due to the blockade, the ships arriving from Liaodong could not dock at all. Those Mongolian cavalry who escaped before the battle were unable to escape by sea and were scurrying around Shandong like headless flies. In this cold season, Shandong is still inhabited.
Lingluo, if those Mongolians don't want to starve to death and freeze to death, they will definitely make a big fuss!
It is conceivable that once it is determined that they cannot return home by sea, they will take desperate risks, either going north to leave the customs from Shanxi or even Zhili, or going south to find food by the Grand Canal, or even go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and invade the Jianghuai River. No matter where
A situation that would shock both the government and the public, and the emperor could not stop it even if he wanted to.
"To put it bluntly, the shit on King Han's body is too much and smells so bad that the emperor can't cover it up for him even if he wants to!" Wang Xian said coldly: "Now that I'm wise, I will never hold on to King Han's affairs and let him go."
My son’s body and reputation have been ruined, and I have also lost face!”
"Do you think that the Emperor will let King Han's death go unpunished?" An Yuanhou's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again: "You still don't understand the Emperor, is he such a person who is willing to give up?"
"Haha, it's just that the Marquis is too afraid of the emperor." Wang Xian shook his head and said with a smile: "For many things, even the emperor has to take the overall situation into consideration and cannot just follow his temper. After all, in the emperor's heart, his country and his reputation are all important.
, is much more important than a son and a moment of anger."
"What do you mean by the overall situation?" Marquis Anyuan looked at Wang Xian.
"The Ming Dynasty can no longer withstand the hardships." Wang Xian sighed softly: "Since Yongle, the emperor has conquered Mongolia several times, sailed to the West, built new capitals, built Taoist temples, and killed hundreds of other emperors in ten years.
Great achievements that cannot be accomplished in years. Why don't other emperors have this ability? Is it because they have no ambition? I don't think so, it's more because they don't have the financial resources."
Liu Sheng nodded slightly and heard Wang Xian continue: "Why does the emperor have such strong financial resources? The secret is to seize people's wealth by issuing excessive treasure banknotes. For more than ten years, the treasure banknotes have plundered the people's wealth and anointing, and have depreciated ten thousand times in value.
Now he has been completely abandoned by the people. Even a genius like Xia Yuanji is at his wits end and cannot collect a few more coins for the emperor."
Liu Sheng continued to nod. Although he was a layman on the economy, he also knew that the Ming Dynasty was really out of money. Otherwise, after the three major palaces were burned, the emperor would never have ordered people to clean up the ruins without mentioning reconstruction.
matters...
"The situation in Shandong has developed far beyond the emperor's expectations." Wang Xian continued: "Before, the emperor had the idea of letting Shandong be in chaos and then rule it out, so he allowed the White Lotus Sect and the King of Han to do whatever they wanted. Who could have realized it?
When chaos breaks out, the situation is so unimaginable! The White Lotus Sect can actually incite millions of people and support more than 100,000 troops. The famous Marquis Anyuan is also helpless..." Wang Xian glanced at Liu Sheng narrowly.
Said: "Do you think the emperor will regret his original decision?"
"First let the unparalleled Uncle Zhongyong stumble, okay?" Liu Sheng rolled his eyes and retorted, "I'm here to wipe your ass."
Having said that, he fully agreed with Wang Xian's words. The intensity, scope, and harm of the Shandong Rebellion this time far exceeded the court's expectations. The Shandong Rebellion that Zhu Di thought could be easily extinguished has now become a
A serious problem for the imperial court!
There are many reasons for this, but the most important one is that the emperor has no shortage of hungry soldiers. Zhu Di has millions of soldiers in his hands, but he has no money or food to mobilize them...
Liu Sheng also knew that the northern provinces such as Henan, Shanxi and Shaanxi were not at peace either. The White Lotus Sect in those provinces was not much weaker than that in Shandong. If the rebellion in Shandong could not be quelled quickly, once it spread, it would shake the country!
"So, I don't have to worry about my head for the time being." After figuring out the connection, Liu Sheng smiled and said: "Your Majesty still has to ask me to guard Qingzhou, Jinan, and protect the Grand Canal. But Bailian must be wiped out.
"Teach me, I'm afraid that my heart is too weak..."
"Yes." Wang Xianxin said. As expected, people become better with age, and they can see through everything. He smiled and nodded: "After the White Lotus Sect defeated the Queen of Han, the safety of Shandong depends on the Marquis. If the White Lotus Sect is not destroyed, the Marquis will...
The sun is as stable as Mount Tai.”
"The method of raising bandits and protecting yourself is not very clever." Liu Sheng said, but he was not too cold: "Anyone who comes to play this trick will not be able to escape the reckoning after the fall, and will have to be stained with shit."
"What if the identity of the White Lotus Sect is no longer a bandit?" Wang Xian asked quietly.
"You mean to recruit them?" Liu Sheng said softly.
"Not bad." Wang Xian nodded.
"It's difficult. Even if the emperor can bear this tone and recruit the White Lotus Sect." Liu Sheng looked at Wang Xiandao: "But the White Lotus Sect now has more than 100,000 troops, occupying most of Shandong, and has just defeated the King of Han. In terms of strength and military morale,
, how can you possibly surrender to the imperial court?"
"This requires the Marquis and I to take action together." Wang Xian smiled slightly and said: "Isn't the Marquis ready to give them a head-on blow? Then I will take action from the bottom of the cauldron, and the situation will be completely different."
"I heard that Hei Jian has been killed in the battle, can you still control them?" Liu Sheng asked in a deep voice.
"Hehe..." Wang Xian smiled slyly and did not answer.
"It seems that this battle is going to be a headache for me." Seeing that Wang Xian had his own ideas, Liu Sheng didn't ask any more questions, rubbed his chin and said worriedly: "It takes a lot of effort to hurt them without being able to annihilate them.
.”
"Of course it's no problem, Lord Marquis." Wang Xian complimented. Just as he was about to say something else, he heard a burst of noise outside the tent.
Liu Sheng frowned and listened carefully for a while, then said with a gloating expression: "Your enemy is here."
"It's just in time. If he doesn't come, I'll still be looking for him!" Wang Xian also heard the sharp woman's voice, raised his eyebrows, and said with murderous intent: "Dai Hua! The Musketeers are waiting for you!"
Dai Hua responded outside the tent, and more than 200 armed guards in golden uniforms came to Liu Sheng's tent. At this time, the old eunuch also appeared, surrounded by his disciples and disciples.
As soon as Zhao Ying appeared, he was surrounded by Jinyi guards. More than two hundred black guns were pointed at the old eunuch's body. This was not the first time that Zhao Ying had been treated like this. Last time in Wanzhu Garden, Lin
Qing'er fired a volley of guns and killed dozens of his Dongchang followers, so much so that the old eunuch still gets scared whenever he sees a musket!
No matter how high his kung fu is, he is still a human being and cannot withstand a gun!
Zhao Ying was blushing with anger when he saw the curtain lifted and Wang Xian appeared.
"As expected of the two men, they both used muskets to threaten our family." Zhao Ying snorted, looked at Wang Xian coldly and said, "Uncle Zhongyong, do you know your guilt?"
"Damn it, eunuch, we'll talk about other things another day. I'll settle the score with you today!" Wang Xian didn't accept Zhao Ying's trick at all, and said coldly, "You dare to bully my family members while I'm not around. I really don't think so."
I am made of clay!"
"You colluded with the White Lotus Sect and killed the prince and son, which is already a capital crime! Your family members are also criminals, and you dare to violently resist the law and kill people from Dongchang!" Zhao Ying also did not accept Wang Xian's tricks.
, gritted his teeth and said: "Today our family will bring you to justice!"
"Bring it here!" Wang Xian suddenly stretched out his hand.
"What?" The old eunuch was stunned for a moment.
"Is this evidence that I colluded with the White Lotus Sect and killed the prince and his son?" Wang Xian sneered.
"As evidenced by a letter written by His Highness the King of Han, our family has sent it to the Emperor. The order to arrest you will arrive soon!" the old eunuch said quietly.
"The King of Han colluded with the White Lotus Sect and killed Lord Guo and thousands of our soldiers! Can you believe what he said?!" Wang Xian said disdainfully.
"What evidence do you have?" the old eunuch asked.
"Do you think I have been missing for half a year just to recuperate and pretend to be dead?" Wang Xian sneered and said: "I have already mastered the conclusive evidence of the King of Han's treachery, and I have already told the emperor all about it! You are a dead eunuch, and you will die a happy death if you help the emperor!"
"
"..." When Wang Xian said that he had reported the evidence of King Han's crimes to the court, Zhao Ying couldn't help but feel his heart shrink. In the final analysis, he found no evidence except the letter from King Han. That's why he was crazy.
Forced to confess to the White Lotus Cult, trying to find evidence that Wang Xian colluded with the White Lotus Cult!
It's a pity that how did the White Lotus disciples know that Wang Xian was Hei Jian? They couldn't provide any clues at all! Zhao Yingxin said that if Wang Xian really turned the tables, he would be in trouble... As everyone knew, the King of Han was already in a state of shock, and he
It is impossible to be affected.
Seeing that Zhao Ying was thinking of quitting, Wang Xian refused to give him a step. He turned cold and waved his hand: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Beat this eunuch to death!"
