Chapter 255.

This night pearl, was placed on a palace lamp.

The palace lanterns have been around for some years.

Unsurprisingly, it should be the Yuan Dynasty royal family that fled in a hurry at the beginning and brought it back to the desert.

Upon their return to the steppe, these former imperial possessions were divided among each of their successors, who lost the ability to enjoy the new royal imperial goods.

However, since he closed the door and claimed that he had inherited the Taoist lineage of the Great Yuan, he had to clean these things, which had passed decades earlier, and then place them in his tent.

This seems to be every broken family love to do, although the family failed, but always want to leave a little once the ancestors of the prominent things, to do their own thoughts, but also to remind their own origins are not extraordinary.

The nightshade lights are great.

“A supreme treasure, a supreme treasure!” Ghost Li Chi stood up, stood in front of this palace lamp, looked at the night pearl that emitted dazzling luster, couldn’t help but say, “How can there be such a treasure in the world? Also only the ancestors …… can enjoy it, never thought, and now …… finally returned to the original owner.”

Said here, ghost Li Chi eyes red, blinking, shed a tear, turned back to look at the crowd of eunuchs and tai fu and all the shangshu, can not help but say: “This time to enter the army, you and so on to work with me, a sweep of the pseudo-ming.”

The crowd roared in agreement.

Ghostly Red had his deepest thoughts in mind when he set this aside in his golden tent, like an exhibition.

When the Tartar khan, is in the hands of Ali Bugo’s descendants, and he, the descendants of Wukodai, took advantage of the opportunity to usurp the throne, although they are all golden family, but the ghost Li Chi coincidentally, just from the Wukodai’s commoner son of the lineage.

The Tartars have been in the Middle Kingdom for so long that the customs of the Middle Kingdom, too, have had a slight influence on them, and in terms of legitimacy he would be far inferior to the Khan he usurped.

Now well, sleepy sent a pillow, just when he wanted to eagerly prove that he is the real possession of the golden family lineage, this Daming fear of war, actually took the treasure of his ancestors to negotiate peace.

“Haha ……,” he said, his face not without a smug, fluttering brow.

This pearl, as if a signboard, all the time to remind the Tartar Department of the master and the master and the ministers, he is a real Wukautai descendants, the blood flowing in the veins, is Genghis Khan’s blood.

And the reappearance of the nightshade is a testament to that.

One of the greatest achievements of Emperor Taizong of our Dayuan lies in the complete finalization of the Central Plains and the destruction of the Jin and the destruction of the Song.

It seemed as if it signaled something in the underworld, that perhaps he would, as his ancestors had done, follow the path of Vogtai and re-enter the pass.

Taking a deep breath, Ghost Li Chi turned back again and coldly glanced at this Wang Langzhong and said, “Do you bring this gift to negotiate peace?”

“Yes.”

“You go back and tell Zhu.” Ghostly Equator said, “You see Zhu Ming as a thief. A group of thieves who have tampered with my family’s property, thinking that by taking my ancestors’ treasures to befriend me, they can teach me to desist? What we have lost, we ourselves will fetch, and what we have lost, we can surely regain!”

“Today to stay your life, you quickly go back. If that Zhu Di, is still like a man, will fight with me, if not dare, will temporarily his head, temporarily placed in Jiangnan, three to five years later, to be my troops to take. Get out!”

Wang Langzhong’s face turned green, and the one who was more angry in his heart was Zhang Anshi.

You see …… just said there was no way to negotiate peace, right?

Not only were they humiliated and insulted, but they could not get things done.

But at this time, he could only say, “The victory is not yet decided, Khan’s words are not arrogant. I will report back to your majesty, farewell.”

Dropping a harsh sentence, cold sweat was soaking the back of his lapel.

When he was out of the Golden Tent, he and his attendant left in a hurry.

It wasn’t until we were out of Daning that the Chief Banner asked, “How was it?”

“How what?” Wang Langzhong exasperatedly said, “The other party has been plotting for a long time, how can they be willing to negotiate peace? Now we are losing our wife and soldiers, for people to laugh. Hey …… pity that treasure.”

After a moment’s pause, he added: “Naturally, it’s fine if the treasure is gone. Just so negotiate peace, really humiliating, but also to be cursed. This …… is really a loss of face.”

The Chief Banner then wondered, “Why don’t you argue your case?”

“What is there to contend for, we are ambassadors, the Tartars are barbarous and unreasonable, is there any force to contend for this negotiation of peace? Say no more, and return quickly to the capital.”

The Chief Banner was only responsible for escorting this person, seeing that this Wang Langzhong was full of grievances and sometimes subconsciously muttered something, this Chief Banner then stretched his ears to listen.

It s good that Wang Langzhong is not a confused person, this mission up and down, he mother even if the flies and fleas that follow him are suspected to be the people of the inner thousand households, so …… he did not curse Zhang Anshi s three words after all.

It’s just an occasional shady comment.

…………

Zhang Anshi is very peaceful these days.

He even occasionally went to Yao Guangxiao for advice on Buddhism.

Yao Guangxiao eyes slanted, could not help but say, “I heard that the marquis wife is pregnant, listen to the poor monk a persuasion, temporary clasp, no use. You look at the poor monk …… on the self-awareness, not to marry a wife, not concubines, not to have children, why?”

Zhang Anshi’s face instantly turned ugly and he said angrily, “What do you mean by that?”

“What you mean is what the poor monk means.”

“How do I know what you mean if you don’t say what you mean?”

“Don’t spare me, we’re all smart people, so why spare me?”

Zhang Anshi pursed his lips and finally lamented, “Master Yao, I actually feel that I am accumulating merit on a regular basis.”

Yao Guangxiao smiled, “This …… is not easy to say.”

“Why?” Zhang Anshi said curiously.

Yao Guangxiao said: “Haihuang Hou was deposed by Huo Guang, and the reason why he was deposed, the reason why Huo Guang has already said, said that he is *** inordinately, within twenty-seven days of his reign, he did one thousand one hundred and twenty-seven ridiculous things. Twenty-seven days, this day will have to do fifty ridiculous things to become, twelve hours a day, excluding five or six hours with meals and bedtime, that is to say, this Haihuang Hou, every hour to do ten bad things, you see, just you and I talk to the kung fu, this incense less than the time, Haihuang Hou has done a bad thing.”

Zhang Anshi couldn’t hold back a bit, lost his smile and said, “Master Yao don’t be eccentric.”

“I’m not being conspiratorial, whether or not Haihuang Hou is dim-witted and does bad things, it’s not up to him, it’s up to Huo Guang. It’s like …… whether a person is virtuous or not, it’s also not up to him or him to say, or he’s really virtuous, but it’s what other people say about him.”

Saying this, Yao Guangxiao sighed, “This merit is also the same thing, whether the Marquis has accumulated merit, whether he has done something unconscionable, or whether he is so compassionate that he will be able to go to the Western Paradise in his next life and enjoy endless blessings, this has to be decided by the Buddha.”

Zhang Anshi said, “This is reasonable, but Buddha his old man ……”

Yao Guangxiao said, “Of course the Buddha will not appear in person, he is too noble to forget, but don’t forget, beside you, there are many high monks, these high monks, in fact, and the Buddha is almost the same.”

Zhang Anshi, however, looked at Yao Guangxiao steadily and said, “Does Master Yao count as an accomplished monk?”

Yao Guangxiao was silent for a moment and finally shook his head, “Not really.”

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “I feel much more at ease when you put it this way… What you mean is that it’s fine for me to look for people who are counted as accomplished monks to come out and have them say that I have merit and will be blessed in the future?”

“That’s roughly what it is ……”

Zhang Anshi said, “Okay, then I’ll go look for it.”

Yao Guangxiao said: “Buddhist things, you an outsider, how can understand it? Marquis don’t give yourself trouble, you donate money, poor monks this side of the natural on behalf of you will find this monk, daily for you to pray for blessings is, why this trouble.”

Said, grunted, “you rich people, really trouble, body does not bring, death does not take away the a plug thing, always so painless, have to poor monks around a big circle, you can not give up a little bit of money, in fact,…… not so troublesome, the head of the temple, the real able officials are all the thunder and lightning. Buddhism is actually the same.”

Zhang Anshi actually said very seriously, “In fact, I don’t believe in this you guys, just …… recently did something, always a little disturbed ……”

“Well, well …… flesh and mortals, are all six roots are not pure people, who do not want to do some bad things, no big deal, you put down the butcher knife, you turn back to the shore.”

Zhang Anshi said, “Can you hear me out first?”

Yao Guangxiao angrily said: “say a bird. I have been listening to you here all day, silver not see a, even and poor monks say Buddhist theory, poor monks are very free? Incense oil money, you in the end to give or not?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Master Yao, words must not be spoken so bluntly, I am only here, seeking a pure land.”

“There is no clean place in the world, clean only in your heart, you did not donate incense and oil money, of course, will be uneasy in the heart, do something wrong, but also naturally afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, the so-called all living beings are suffering, well, I have said so much to you …… to ask you one last time … …”

“I’ll give.” Zhang Anshi said, “Tomorrow have someone, send three thousand taels.”

“You’re not religious enough.”

Zhang Anshi was angry again, “When others give three or five taels of silver, you guys are amazed, are you trying to slaughter me like a pig?”

Yao Guangxiao said in a serious manner, “Usual believing men and women who do something wrong will harm at most one person. Who are you Zhang Anshi? If you Zhang Anshi do something wrong, I don’t know how many people will be killed by you, can this be compared together?”

Zhang Anshi also do not know why Yao Guangxiao to him Zhang Anshi so big fire, is the last time to pull him into the water, his heart and mind such a small, so far, but also the remaining anger has not disappeared?

Zhang Anshi could only say, “Then I will add two thousand taels, no more, any more and I won’t give a penny in the future.”

“Amitabha Buddha.” Yao Guangxiao clasped his palms together and sang the Buddha’s name: “Good, good, good, Zhang Shi Shi …… Starting tomorrow, the poor monk will recite sutras for you to pray for blessings.”

Zhang Anshi said, “You don’t have to. You invite a few more senior monks ……”

“Okay, okay. This is wrapped up in the poor monk, Zen Master Zhenjing of the Rooster Temple, Zen Master Miaofa of the Qixia Temple, and ……”

Zhang Anshi obviously didn’t have the patience to listen to him read one by one, and immediately said, “Forget it, you make up your own mind, I’m too lazy to listen.”

Yao Guangxiao smiled and said, “Shi Shi is atmospheric, Shi Shi is extraordinary. By the way, what exactly have you done recently that is lacking in virtue?”

Zhang Anshi cocked his head and thought for a moment before saying, “I intend to take out many people, well, of course they are not the subjects of my Daming ……”

Yao Guangxiao sighed: “All people are equal, whether or not I am a citizen of the Great Ming, but ultimately also living beings, this world, a flower, a grass, a wood, all for the living beings, as usual, there is also pain, not to mention the people? Hey ……”

Zhang Anshi looked at him breathlessly and said, “I’ll add you five hundred taels, don’t talk to me about this.”

Yao Guangxiao’s eyes light up, immediately said: “But then again, to kill someone must be a killing sword, to live someone must be a living person’s sword. Both must kill, must live people; both live people, must kill people. Zhang Shi Master kills neither my Ming people, then must kill my Ming enemies, these people are brutal and unkind, if we leave these people in the world, will create countless killing sins. Kill a person and save millions of people, with Confucianism, this is a great benevolence and courage. In Buddhist terms, it is also called if I don’t enter hell, who will enter hell, this is great compassion.”

Zhang Anshi couldn’t help but look at him with admiration and said, “Master Yao is a professional, well, I am now comfortable in my heart.”

Yao Guangxiao smiled respectfully and said, “Next time you want to kill someone, you can still look for a poor monk.”

Zhang Anshi said, “No need, I’ll have someone make a copy of what you said and just put it in my study and hang it up.”

Yao Guangxiao immediately scared Zhang Anshi, “In that case, it will not work.”

Zhang Anshi said, “In fact, today I just want to spend money to have a little fun, Master Yao is ruthless, even wanting to be my long-term meal ticket, you’re kind of getting ahead of yourself.”

Yao Guangxiao couldn’t help but lose his mind and sighed, “Sins ah, really sins ah. When your child is born, you can seek poor monks, poor monks ……”

Zhang Anshi interrupted him and said, “You came a step late, this matter …… gold ministry hall has long promised, said that he will come at that time.”

Yao Guangxiao immediately gritted his teeth and said, “That’s a fake Taoist priest, when he was in Beiping, he made a living by measuring words and cheating people.”

Zhang Anshi laughed, “He said the same thing about you.”

Yao Guangxiao froze, “What did he say about poor monks?”

Zhang Anshi said, “He said that you are a false monk, full of male theft and prostitution.”

Yao Guangxiao gasped, “Don’t you come to bluff the poor monk, Jin Zhong is honest and won’t say such things.”

Zhang Anshi, however, said: ”Think about it, can someone who can be your friend really be honest? If he is honest, how could he be in the position of Minister of War? In your Buddhist words, honesty is actually just skin deep, Master Yao you are seeing skin but not bones.”

Yao Guangxiao snorted coldly and said, “The poor monk will not fall for your tricks.”

Zhang Anshi did not continue to nag, and simply said, “Farewell then.”

Yao Guangxiao, however, tugged at Zhang Anshi: “You haven’t made it clear yet, why are you leaving? After coming to my Jixing Temple, can you just say you are leaving?”

Zhang Anshi then cursed.

Yao Guangxiao also cursed.

When Zhang Anshi grand ready to go down the mountain, but suddenly remembered something, turned back and said, “Right, turn around and give me a good sign, and, take a peace talisman to me.”

Yao Guangxiao looked at him suspiciously and said, “Haven’t you already untied your heart?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Do you think I really believe you? If it wasn’t for my wife’s insecurity, she had to teach me to ask for a sign to see if the mother and child would be safe, I wouldn’t have come to fall for your trick. You can only fool ignorant women and children.”

Yao Guangxiao not angry but happy: “So your wife also love Buddhism, ah …… ah, rare …… rest assured, what you want to sign, poor monk this side are for you to prepare, poor monk this side, but there is no peace talisman, this talisman are those fake Taoist priests to cheat people’s money.”

“Of course, if Scholar Zhang definitely wants it, this side of the Jixing Temple, find a way to make one. In addition to that, the poor monk here also has enlightened rosary beads. There are also ……… that have gathered countless merits.”

Zhang Anshi waved his hand, “Then rosary beads, anyway, just give me whatever you want, I’ll be able to bring it back to deliver.”

Yao Guangxiao said, “There are also many kinds of this enlightenment ……”

Zhang Anshi was a bit unable to stand his nagging and directly said, “Just give a bunch at random.”

“Good, good, good ……,” Yao Guangxiao said, “Later, after the opening ceremony of the poor monk, he will send the things to the Zhang Shi Master.”

Half a month later.

The vast iron cavalry appeared on the Liaodong Plain.

A few days of wrestling later.

A military fort has finally been breached.

This is the gateway to Guangning, and is close to the Woodrugha tribe.

Countless Tartars, killed the military fort.

In the military fortress, stationed here is a thousand households under the Guangning Wei.

Said military fort, in fact, but has long been reclaimed in the surrounding area, gradually appeared market, therefore, once heard that the Woodland Ha people collusion of the Tartars into Liaodong, a large number of merchants, farmers, women and children, have to enter the fort to avoid.

But at this time …… outside the military fort, it is more than a hundred Tartar corpses and ownerless war horses.

Innumerable Tartars, trampling on the corpses of their companions, swarmed into the fort.

Thousands of soldiers and civilians in the fort …… saw this one swarming cavalrymen raise their butcher knives.

Occasionally, some fought back desperately, others cried for mercy.

But invariably …… after the screams and excited shouts of killing …… everything went back to quiet.

Blood is flowing.

Not far away in the army tent.

Ghostly Lich sat cross-legged.

The crowd of eunuchs and tai fu and Shangshu, still gathered together to drink.

This …… is just a small military fort, just to open the gateway of Guangning, and Guangning is the gateway of the whole Liaodong, once opened, this Liaodong thousands of miles of vast land, can be allowed to ride.

The fall of the Woodlanders was, in a way, tantamount to the complete loss of a barrier to protect Liaodong for the Ming.

On the one hand, Oni Li Chi ordered his men to make a gesture of attacking Xifengkou, while the real purpose was to attack and plunder the whole of Liaodong.

Only by seizing this piece of fertile land, then the Tatars, really have the capital to fight with the Ming.

At this time, he was drinking recklessly in his tent, and the people were raising their glasses.

In the middle of the golden tent was a large fire pit, and a lamb had long since been roasted to a golden brown.

The eunuchs skillfully cut up the lamb’s meat and delivered it to each of the nobles.

The crowd ate meat, drank wine, and clamored for a good time.

The large night pearl, still hanging in the tent, added a few more shades of color to the place.

Every person who entered the tent couldn’t help but greedily come closer to take a look at the beads and let out a sigh of admiration.

And Ghostly Red, like a hospitable host, chattered on about the bead’s origins and how extraordinary it was.

Just ……

One sip of wine down ……

Ghostly Red felt a little faint.

He barely supported himself and sat cross-legged, thinking in his heart, roughly, that it should have been the thousands of miles of running that had caused him to grow tired.

The eagle on the prairie, there will be times when you are tired, drunk, beautiful sleep, and it will be fine.

Still, this sleepiness was causing him a lot of trouble, and he could only barely hold it together.

Just then, a guard entered the tent and said, “Your Majesty, Fort Yi Zhou has been broken.”

Ghost Li Chi was expressionless as he cut off a piece of lamb with his golden knife and put it in his mouth to chew, with only a slight lift of his eyes, “Slaughtered it all?”

“All were slaughtered except the women. ”

“Hmph.” Ghost force red face appear angry: “District a military fort, actually teach me to die more than one hundred and forty warriors, not slaughter clean, difficult to eliminate my hate! The remaining women, select a few, send them to my tent, the rest, reward them to the warriors who entered the city first.”

“Yes!”

Oniichan said, suddenly feeling a bit dizzy.

It was with great reluctance that he steadied himself slightly.

He was the Emperor of the Great Yuan and the Khan, so naturally he could not show weakness in front of his own men.

He knows …… very well that once he reveals anything, he may attract certain uneasy people to covet.

So he smiled brightly and said, “Drink, drink ……”

He raised his cup, and the crowd also chanted, “Long life to Your Majesty.”

Just as he was about to drink it all in one go, Ghostly Red’s gaze, landed on Arutai.

With that, he pointed his finger at Eunuch Arutai and laughed, “Haha, what’s wrong with our Eunuch Arutai?”

When the crowd looked, they saw blood dripping out of this Arutai’s nostrils. And Arutai was oblivious to it, seemingly not realizing it.

Arutai also felt odd and took his leather sleeve and wiped it off, only to realize that he was covered in blood under his nose.

The crowd laughed again.

Arutai was very annoyed, he did not like to be ridiculed, it was a sign of his own weakness, he was the strongest among the Tartar tribe, therefore, not to mention the unusual tribal chiefs, even the Ghost Li Chi, he was also very respectful to him.

But now …… it makes him feel humiliated.

It’s just that the humiliation is self-inflicted.

So he said, “It’s probably because it’s been warm for a few days ……”

With that, he staggered to his feet, “I’ve had a lot of horse piss, go drain it.”

On the other side, the Taishi King, or Harl Woodruff, the chief of the Woodruffs, also got up and said, “I will accompany you.”

These two, staggering out of the golden tent, directly sought out a more secluded spot and began to let out water.

Arutai and Haer Woodruff are related by marriage, and Haer Woodruff’s son married Arutai’s daughter.

At this time, this Taishi Wang Ha’er Woods said, “His Majesty’s words just now were quite a tease to you.”

Alutai cold snort, and subconsciously to wipe his nose, but see this nosebleed, still flowing, then said, “His Majesty is quite scrupulous about me, today he ate drunk, Fang said, the future …….”

Harl Woodruff whispered, “What do you mean ……”

“Don’t say it here.” Arutai whispered.

Harl Woods would understand.

But just at this moment, Alutai lowered his head, looked at this Haer Wood outlaw released out of the water line, but it is a froth: “You …… you …… what is this?”

Ha’er Wu’ou didn’t understand the meaning, but only felt that Arutai was extremely shocked.

So following Arutai’s gaze, he looked down.

This ha’er Woodrow winced so violently that the line of water he pissed out of couldn’t help but shake.

He …… was urinating blood.

Crimson blood, flowing out from him, washed over the ground and seeped into the land, coloring it red.

“Strange.” Harl frowned at least, looking worried.

Arutai looked around, saw that no one was around, and whispered, “This matter, do not let anyone know.”

Ha’er Wu’ou instantly understood Arutai’s meaning.

Though he didn’t know, why he was peeing blood.

But there is one thing that Hal Woodrugh knows.

Once this matter gets out, it can’t …… help but cause other problems.

In the Mongolian ministries, there is no brotherhood, fatherhood, or sonhood, but where there is a person who shows weakness, like the wolves in the steppe, the old wolves will inevitably be expelled by the young wolves.

So the two of them pressed down their minds and pretended that nothing was wrong, and returned to the Golden Tent.

In the golden tent, there was still the same clamor.

But many, in fact, are showing fatigue.

Some people even staggered right back and their heads fell down.

Thus triggering laughter, they all said that his capacity for drinking was far from what it used to be, and that he was getting old.

Ghostly Lich smiled, “Arutai, have you wiped your blood clean?”

Alutai’s old face red, that Haer Woods at least vain, also bowed his head and did not say anything.

Ghost Li Chi staggered, as if he had been drunk, stood up, and laughed again, “Heaven forbid that this campaign will be safe, so that we may regain our pastures ……”

Saying that, he subconsciously, walked to that night pearl, and then his eyes stared at the night pearl with death.

This night pearl emanated light and shone on Ghostly Red’s greedy face.

The crowd stopped laughing.

Ghost force bare hands warily grabbed the night pearl and held it in his hand, he turned back, looked at the crowd and said, “You see …… in the world …… only the most honorable people can have such a supreme treasure …… Only …… only …… only ……”

His voice, began to grow fainter and fainter.

This instantly made everyone feel surprised.

Ghost Li Chi looked very tired, he continued to sickly: “I …… we tomorrow, can attack Guangning, and then …… to the hinterland of Liaodong attack … …to the time …… to the time …… then …… then …… ”

Bang ……

The night pearl, in fact, suddenly rolled down from his hand.

The glowing beads, still radiant, rolled on the blanket and rolled to Arutai’s feet.

Just as everyone let out a gasp of surprise.

Suddenly, Ghostly Akira’s body began to shake, as if he was exerting all his strength, trying to wrestle with his weakness.

But …… he failed in the end.

The man was all at once, paralyzed on the blanket.

Everyone exclaimed, then stepped forward.

Ghostly Akira then scrambles, trying to brace himself and get back to his feet.

But …… he had both ears, and suddenly blood began to flow out, and in his eyes …… there seemed to be liquid about to come out of the sockets.

That liquid …… was actually red as well.

He wriggled his mouth and desperately …… tried to say something, hoping to tell everyone that it was nothing more than ill health caused by saddling up all the way.

But the mouth opens and wow ……

A mouthful of blood then spurted out.

Blood sprayed out, filling the entire golden tent.

Within the golden tent, there was silence.

………………

This cold is too troublesome, went to the injection for three consecutive days, so the update is late, originally the injection is lazy, mainly because I am afraid that people say the tiger sells out.

But the problem is that the update is late, and if I don’t say anything, people will call Tiger lazy again, so I’d better say something.

That said, it’s the end of the month, does anyone have a monthly pass in hand?
