A+ A- Turn Off Light

Zhu Di at this time only felt that it was difficult to be peaceful.

Seeing Zhu Di’s furious anger, Zhang Anshi hurriedly said, “Quickly come and escort the man here.”

This sentence only taught Zhu Di’s heart to settle a little.

Sure enough, a group of people came escorting dozens of prison wagons.

This first one is none other than Father Buddha.

Father Buddha looked frightened and uncertain, as if at this time he presumed to try to claim his life, and said to the man who was escorting the prison wagon, “I have a lot of silver, and I know …… it.”

Unfortunately, those words are no longer relevant.

Chen Daowen took the lead and flew forward, dismounted and saluted Zhu Di, “I have seen Your Majesty, and I have seen the Duke of Wei.”

Zhu Di had his hands behind his back and didn’t say a word, his face was ugly, which was actually understandable.

Zhang Anshi, this kid, actually dared to deceive the king and ignore his superiors, this guy’s wings have grown hard.

He said faintly, “Did you get the man?”

“Your Majesty, my humble people, all night long to attack Shandong Putai County, after this more than a month’s effort, finally is not dishonorable mission, these two thieves leader, and dozens of thieves, all to take down.”

“What?” Zhu Di was astonished and turned to Zhang Anshi, “Didn’t you say, deceiving the king and ignoring the king?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Yes, it is deceiving the king to be reckless, I mean …… that I am deceiving the king to be reckless on the side of Zhu Yong and others, but the thief should be taken, or the thief should be taken.”

Zhu Di at this point was getting more and more confused the more he listened.

However, when he heard that he had gotten the head of the thief, Zhu Di was overjoyed, but then he gritted his teeth and said, “Good, very good, come on, escort these two people to come, I want to be tried in person.”

When he finished speaking, he seemed to have not yet finished, “Open the South Zhenfu Si Yamen and allow the military and civilian population to observe the proceedings.”

This matter is very important, now in the capital, the hearts of the people, must be seen to be believed, if not, on the contrary, will spread more gossip.

A Hanlin stepped forward, whispered, “Your Majesty, I thought it was not good, now the identity of the rebel has not yet been identified, it is hastily pro trial, the people have come to watch, once the wrong …… ”

Zhu glanced at the man and said, “Mistaken?”

“I am a little worried.” Hanlin said, “If ……”

Zhu Di said: “If the Brocade Guards are deceiving the top and killing Liang, is that right?”

Hanlin busily said, “Your Majesty, it is not that I think so, just …… just this world, I am afraid that all think so.”

Zhu Di said with a cold face, “What you said is not wrong, there are countless things like this in the Jinyiwei, I have heard the imperial historian also impeached a lot of things, but even if I can’t trust the Jinyiwei, but I still trust Zhang Anshi.”

Saying this, he posed for the southern township.

At this time, many of the ministers who accompanied the driver have begun to talk, and the Hanlin who was previously persuading the others is also muttering with others.

Hearing that the leader of the White Lotus Sect’s thieves had been captured was absolutely stone-cold news.

These days, the capital city has a kind of murderous atmosphere, in order to catch the remaining White Lotus Sect, the five cities of the Department of Military and Horsepower and Yingtian Fu of the police officers around to catch people, everyone is scared for it.

However, the people, by and large, preferred to believe in gods and Buddhas rather than disbelieve in them, so they could not distinguish between the good and bad of the White Lotus Sect.

It is just that the court is catching them in this way, but instead, it makes a lot of military and civilian people worried, afraid that they are also involved in it.

Now that I heard that this Buddha father and mother were caught, many people were in an uproar, and there is no lack of …… potential White Lotus people.

They did not believe that Father and Mother Buddha had been taken, but they all looked forward to it and wanted to see it.

For a moment, this South Township Division, actually flooded with many people.

Zhang Anshi also had people open all eight doors of the lobby.

Zhu Di since he did not have to sit at the head of the hall, but sat in an ear room, drinking tea, listening to the trial on the side.

Zhang Anshi presided over the trial as a co-conspirator.

There are two people, one is accompanied by the Ministry of Justice Minister Wu Zhong, one is the right royal inspector Chen Jin, they accompanied on both sides of Zhang Anshi, although it is the deputy trial, in fact, just go through the motions.

Zhang Anshi didn’t realize that His Majesty was so eager.

However, he can appreciate some of Zhu Di s mood, the current situation …… is indeed the hearts of the people, and the ordinary people talk about the White Lotus Church color change.

And the White Lotus Sect has a huge congregation of millions, even in the capital, and I’m afraid there are quite a few of them.

If not in public, let people see what the head of the White Lotus Sect of thieves, there will still be people who use this to deceive.

Zhang Anshi first had a pair of teas poured for himself, while he settled down and said, “Bring all the thieves up.”

A few moments later, Father Buddha and Mother Buddha and the others were all escorted up in full view of everyone.

Zhang Anshi glanced at them, these people, each one of them was like a dead mother, as if they had died.

It was completely different from the so-called head of thieves he had imagined.

Zhang Anshi, however, remained calm as he purposely kept quiet and sized up the men.

This is actually a psychological attack by which to create a tense atmosphere.

And by this time, Father Buddha had kowtowed as if he were pounding garlic, “Spare your life, spare your life ……”

He wailed, hysterical looking.

This Buddha’s father took the lead, so the Buddha’s mother began to wail like an ordinary woman in the countryside, wailing and tearing up, as if she were singing, “God have mercy on me, I have a hard life. …… I …… ”

Seeing this fellow, even began to chant, really like singing a mountain song, Zhang Anshi was furious, and drank, “Slap her mouth.”

One of the lieutenants was nonchalant and went up to her and slapped her across the face, and her voice plummeted to a screeching halt.

Zhang Anshi smiled coldly and said, “Is this a place for you to rant? From now on, you will answer whatever I ask, and whoever I ask will answer.”

Father Buddha said, “Qing Tian Daoliang please do it for me, I …… must answer …… answer ……”

The people who came to see it, hearing this Buddha father like this, were greatly disappointed in their hearts, and each of them became more and more skeptical in their hearts.

Wu Zhong, the minister of the Ministry of Justice, who was sitting at Zhang Anshi’s lower head position, was serving tea to drink, and when he heard this, he puffed, and the tea he was holding in his mouth spewed out.

Zhang Anshi gave him an angry look.

Wu Zhong was speechless and smiled apologetically.

Chen Jin, the right capital royal inspector, was sitting with his hands clasped, his eyes half-open and half-closed, seemingly dozing.

Zhang Anshi said, “What is your name?”

The direction Zhang Anshi was pointing his finger was none other than that Buddha Father.

Father Buddha said, “Little man Zhang Erhe.”

Zhang Anshi said, “Where?”

“Shandong Province, Qingzhou people.”

Zhang Anshi said, “A person from Qingzhou? Why are you pretending to be a god?”

“Little, little did not pretend to be a ghost ah ……” Zhang Erhe howled: “Little is a good people, usually did not do any illegal and disorderly things … …”

This Zhang Erhe obviously came all the way here and had a belly full of ideas.

He knows very well what his leverage is, as long as he refuses to recognize himself as the Buddha’s father, for the court, it is a big trouble.

And as for the brocade guards who had captured him, as long as they were convinced that the brocade guards had taken the wrong person, perhaps he would have a real chance of getting away with it.

After all, he had made some friends in the court.

Zhang Anshi seems to have anticipated that he would say so, but not half a bit surprised, then said: “Is it? It seems …… you don’t want to recognize yourself as the so-called White Lotus Buddhist father?”

Zhang Erhe sobbed, “What kind of person is Little, where would I dare to be a god? Little ……”

Zhang Anshi said, “Don’t pretend.”

“Little no disguise, little …… really ……” Zhang Erhe seems to be Zhang Anshi’s momentum scared look, and hastily said, “Little damn. Small damned, but small really is not what Buddha father, if the Qingtian master, really want to teach me to admit, as long as you do not beat me, I will admit, admit ……”

When these words came out, the Hanlin who stood aside and originally spoke, couldn’t help but puff and laugh.

Wu Zhong, the Minister of Justice, constantly shook his head and laughed bitterly.

The Right Royalty still had his eyes half-open and half-closed, as if he was unmoved.

The people outside, however, have all begun to whisper and talk.

Zhang Anshi said at this time, “Men, bring their things.”

That Chen Daowen, however, had long since exploded with anger, and at that moment, carrying the various exhibits that had been searched for from the cave, he directly shelved them in the middle of the hall.

Zhang Anshi said, “Are these yours?”

Zhang Erhe timidly said, “If the Great Lord of the Green Sky thinks that this is Little’s, let it be Little’s.”

Zhang Anshi shot up, “What do you mean even if ……”

“Don …… t hit me.” Zhang Erhe kowtowed his head again, looking frightened.

Like him, people like him, do a lifetime of theater, in front of the eyes of such a scene, simply pediatrics only, he vocalized, “Small …… small …… injustice which.”

Someone outside has already begun to coax, “Why should we make things difficult for such an honest man ……”

“Hey …… is such a person even a White Lotus Sect deity?”

This is only half-said, and quite a bit of a dare.

A cheerful and lively atmosphere began to fill this hall for a moment.

Some of the ministers accompanying the driver were a bit overwhelmed.

Eyes were exchanged.

Zhang Anshi laughed and said, “Not bad, you really are an excellent actor, and you deserve to be able to fool people.”

Zhang Anshi said, and then added: “Your name is not Zhang Erhe ……”

This statement was made.

Everyone frowned and looked at Zhang Anshi strangely.

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “Your name is Li Xi Zhou.”

The crowd showed surprise.

One by one, they looked at Zhang Anshi, appearing greatly confused.

In the ear room aside, Zhu Di slowly sipped his tea, the drama of the party made him even more upset.

Now that there seemed to be some eyebrows, he raised his eyebrows slightly, revealing a thoughtful look.

This Zhang Erhe then said, “Small, has always been called Zhang Erhe, if you do not believe, you can go to check, small …… has always been a peaceful person …… is … …is ……”

His voice trembled.

Zhang Anshi, however, continued to chuckle, “Li Xi Zhou, you must not have thought that I had found out about you a long time ago! By now, are you still showing off those tricks of yours?”

Zhang Erhe said, “I …… don t even know what you are talking about?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Not only do I know that your name is Li Xi Zhou, I also know that the one who follows you and calls herself the so-called person of the Buddha’s mother is Li Xi Ying, and the two of you, are brother and sister ……”

This Buddha Mother was very quiet, she had a very mute peasant woman look to her, even when Zhang Anshi said her name, she still had a dumbfounded look on her face.

Zhang Anshi added, “Don’t know what I’m talking about? In fact, I yet know that you, more than anyone else, want to know why I am saying this.”

Zhang Erhe was silent.

Zhang Anshi then said: “You must be thinking, you hide so well, how will be Jin Yiwei take it? You think you are smart for a lifetime, this whole world, are you playing in the palm of your hand, how this time, it will be a horse’s hoof, is not it?”

Zhang Erhe still put on a timid look and said, “I …… am afraid, you don t hit me.”

Zhang Anshi at this time, however, picked up a tealight and slowly drank tea.

He liked to see Zhang Erhe acting, and to be honest, if this person was in the acting industry, he would at least be at the level of Mr. Fan Wei Fan.

Gently putting the tea down, Zhang Anshi added: “In fact, from the very beginning, I roughly guessed it, so …… those little tricks you think you are smart are actually nothing but a joke.”

Fiercely, the banter on Zhang Anshi’s face disappeared and was replaced by a cold sternness, “Do you really think that no one knows about the good things you have done in the whole world? Li Xi Zhou!”

Zhang Erhe said, “If your lordship must plant me to be what Li Xi Zhou, then I am Li Xi Zhou well, only please your lordship, if you let the little one suffer on behalf of others, let my mother in law be spared …… me …… I beheaded alone well. ”

He continued to perform with genuine sincerity, as if he had already made up his mind that as long as he resisted death, he would still have a chance of survival.

When he spoke, his voice was hoarse and his body trembled as if he was terrified to the core.

When many people saw this, they felt that this person must have been wrongly accused, and they could not help but harbor sympathy for him.

Even a few of the ministers who accompanied the driver felt that they could not look away, but it was good that they knew at this time that the interrogation should not be interrupted.

That the Ministry of Justice right minister Wu Zhong, sighed, only feel that the court discipline corruption so, has reached the point that can be in full view of the public, pointing to the deer for the horse.

Off to the side, in the ear room, Zhu Di began to look a little agitated and impatient; he was no longer able to sit quietly and drink his tea, but stood up and paced anxiously in the ear room, listening with bated breath on one side.

Zhang Anshi said, “Li Xi Zhou, do you know why I held you?”

“The little one doesn’t know anything.”

“In fact, it is very simple ……” Zhang Anshi smiled and said: “Or, again, simple is not too much, your means, I more or less know some, like you, claiming to be immortal people, have always been hiding behind, but manipulating Many people do things for you, your White Lotus Sect, the organization is very dense, who is responsible for conveying the message, who will be the backbone of the various state capitals, how to meet with their own people on weekdays, how to collect money, and even how to pass on the scriptures, here, there are many articles.”

“After the incident, I was ordered to arrest you, but I actually did just two things.”

Zhang Anshi gazed at Zhang Erhe and continued with a smile, “This first piece is to find out where your lair is.”

Zhang Erhe said under his breath, “Wronged, wronged ……”

Though he cried out in this way, there seemed to be some longing in his heart.

He desperately hoped that Zhang Anshi would reveal the causes and consequences.

That’s the way it is with smart people; smart people are historically conceited, and a conceited person often can’t admit defeat; he at least expects answers.

Zhang Anshi continued to pontificate, “But where is your lair? I was also pondering, but …… actually to find, but also very easy, both nest, that must have a large number of needs, after all, it is not possible to only you and the Buddha’s mother two people, the first should be lined up, is the major towns and big cities, this is actually good to understand, densely populated places, it is really difficult to hide their own, and then again, so much beloved, need to go back and forth In addition, so many heart, need to come and go, a lot of goods, need to be constantly transported, so it is best, is in a place you are familiar with, and …… to be a little bit remote, the power of the government, weaker.”

“With this thought, can also continue to narrow down the scope of the investigation, I compared the White Lotus Sect from the decades, to the past few years, some of the songs, and the so-called scriptures, you know, this is very easy to get, and I quickly found that between these decades, the scriptures and songs, there are a number of changes, especially the spoken word, clearly biased in favor of the north, or …… around Shandong and Hebei.”

At these words, many of those who had been teasing began to listen carefully and intently.

Because no one could have imagined that Zhang Anshi was meticulous to such an extent.

Zhang Erhe buried his head and hid the flash of complexity in his eyes as he clearly began to realize that Zhang Anshi was terrifying.

Although the White Lotus Sect is ancient, in general, a chief like him will definitely convey various so-called wills according to different situations.

These wills, in turn, are communicated through the minders to the backbones everywhere, who in turn spread them to the believers.

In this era, accents are very serious, and the so-called native accent is hard to change, and this is the truth.

If you are communicating a particular thing in general, for example, you donkey ball.

Then the person who conveys it, by and large, can change the combination of words, and in a different place, it might evolve into ‘you asshole’, ‘you bastard’, or something like that.

Because people know that it’s cursing just fine and doesn’t change the meaning.

But White Lotus has exactly one attribute of …… religion.

This is like, the Buddhist scriptures are written in Sanskrit, after the transmission to the Central Plains, there will be no one will be the Buddhist scriptures completely translated, the vast majority of monks, although they do not know Sanskrit, but every day in the mouth read a variety of Mami-Mami-Mami-Mami-Mami-Mami-Coax and other scriptures, happy.

Is it because the monks know what this mama-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma is?

No, because it doesn’t matter what it means to the person to whom it is being transmitted, what matters is that the more accurately one pronounces it, the more authentic it is.

White Lotus Sect is also the same, the new chief, to read their own will, the person who conveys often use the original words, and the people who receive this message, in fact, does not care if the chief is not conveying the so-called Cangtian is dead, the yellow sky when the establishment of the words, but the other side of the original words is what, they will follow the chanting of what the scriptures.

The closer to the chief’s accent the better, that’s authentic, that’s genuine.

But who would be too full to search for their missionary songs and all kinds of new teachings? And under this study, it was found that here, clearly with a special accent, and then again and again compared, and finally determined the location of the Buddha father and mother.

Zhang Anshi said with a smile, “Look, you speak, is this chanting accent, do you know why? Because there are some things, he can’t change, people like you, know that what you are doing is a head-killing business, where you are originally from, you will definitely try to do everything possible to set up your lair in a nearby location, this, as I said just now, on the one hand, because you are most familiar with the geography of the place where you were born and grew up, and only a familiar place teaches one to feel at ease.”

“On the other hand, although the number of people in the White Lotus religion, can spread these, ultimately, is a layer by layer, the other believers, you may not have seen, you are familiar with, and think that reliable, must be the people around you, especially those, you know the roots of the people. These are the people who will be your true confidants, who will be able to reassure you, and then …… only the people …… from your own place of origin, from the place where you first began to buy your cronies, will be worthy of your trust. You will set your lair there, and then use the cronies to go to all parts of the world to pull together the backbone, and use the backbone to pull together the ignorant people.”

“So, after I double-checked, based on your accent, and based on the scope of your hiding …… finally …… identified several counties in Shandong.”

Zhang Anshi said, with a smile on his face staring straight at Zhang Erhe, only this smile, with a few hints of mockery.

And only then did he add, “I didn’t expect it, but the one who betrayed you was yourself.”

Zhang Erhe said, “I …… I …… don’t understand a word.”

He had a pitiful look on his face.

But now, almost everyone didn’t say a word.

It’s not because they’ve started to believe in anything.

Rather, it feels …… like at least the brocade guards don’t look like they’re bending over backwards.

Zhang Anshi, on the other hand, said calmly, “Don t be in a hurry …… Hear me out first.”

Zhang Anshi took another sip of tea and moistened his throat.

And then said: “But determined the general location, and what to do? In fact …… it is also very simple, that is to let people penetrate into you among them, I arranged some people, in the name of merchants, went to those counties, in those counties …… to do business, at the same time posing as if they were interested in those gods and ghosts of yours, and donating a a great deal of money.”

Zhang Erhe: “……”

Zhang Anshi said, “Your White Lotus Sect …… in order to amass wealth, so it has always been the most favorite and the gentry and merchants and merchants to cooperate, see came to the fat fish, but also to see them out of the money, you yourself may be more cautious, but those under you, but may not be as cautious as you are. They have long been overjoyed, so they tried to do everything they could to draw in the lieutenants, and also did not hesitate to promote them to be White Lotus Taoist.”

Zhang Erhe: “……”

Some of the skeleton cronies who had been captured along with Father and Mother Buddha, one of them, looked up with a dismayed face, and then quickly buried his head.

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “Of course, in fact, the White Lotus Taoist is nothing, under this sky, you collect people’s money, and casually give you the seal of a so-called White Lotus Taoist is much more, all the state capitals, which place does not have dozens or hundreds of people? At this time, how to force you to reveal yourselves is the crucial thing.”

Zhang Anshi looked slow and smiled.

He seems to be a cat teasing a mouse.

Everyone was silent, each holding their breath for fear of missing something.

Zhang Anshi continued: “However. This step is in fact very simple, that is …… poses has caught your posture, the entire Jinyiwei, began to take hands, not only so, even His Majesty is not clear, thought really caught people. In order to catch you, I Zhang Anshi but bear the dry line of deceiving the king, but …… not so, how to let the world believe that the Jinyiwei really caught the bandit leader it.”

Zhang Anshi purposely raised his voice, as if he was deliberately trying to teach Zhu Di next door to hear more truly, “There is no way ah, his majesty’s temperament is like fire, he is the king of supreme sincerity, if he knows that this is just a trap, he will not be able to make a show of urgency, and may even be seen to be broken.”

“There is nothing I can do, for the sake of the countryside, in order to catch you thieves, I Zhang Anshi is a mountain of fire, but also intends to fight, even if it is the result of the three clans, will never frown. ”

He talks very loudly.

Zhu felt his ears, too, prick up as he listened.

He mused, and then, guffawed.

Zhang Anshi, this kid, has always been as timid as a mouse, it is rare for him to be so bold, but …… extenuating circumstances, which is really a true brachycephalic abdomen and heart of the minister.

Zhang Anshi said, “I make these movements, in fact, convinced that this time, you have long arranged the ears and eyes in the capital, and these ears and eyes, and even some in the palace, and some are dignitaries …… they will quickly since the accurate message, passed to you.”

Zhang Erhe: “……”

Zhang Erhe’s face showed a few points of frustration, although he desperately wanted to make an innocent look, at this moment, he could not hide his loss.

“I’m really doing this to force you to do one thing, and that’s to show up and let more people know that you’re alive and well, and that it’s not at all what the rumors are out there that you’ve been taken.”

“Do you still remember, I arrange people, in that nearby counties, do White Lotus Taoist? They spent a total of 170,000 taels of silver, waiting for you to show up one day, as a matter of fact, if in the usual time, even if it is White Lotus Taoist, know the things, and the general ignorance of the faithful, there will not be much of a difference, but the only thing is that, once you intend to show up, is bound to be hoping that more and more people know the best, so that they are spreading out, therefore, your calculation is that, since the show up, that will convene the nearby counties of the White Lotus Taoist to come to the ceremony. White Lotus Taoist all come to observe the ceremony, after this matter, you then re-go to your next hiding place, in this way, both appeared, but also can re-escape, even if the official army afterward noticed, but also has long since disappeared your trace.”

“But you must not have thought that in that kind of place, in fact, I have long set up a dragnet waiting for you, in order to …… wait for this moment.”

Zhang Erhe sighed in his heart.

He finally knew …… how he had ended up in such a field.

But ……

Zhang Erhe shook his spirit again and said pitifully, “I …… don’t know what you are doing, if you want to harm me then harm me ……”

“Don’t be anxious.” Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “You little fool, you don’t think about it, since I all know your identity, and even caught you presently, would …… I still be afraid of you …… resisting?”

“Come on …… fetch that thing.”

Zhang Erhe froze.

Everyone foxed up.

Subconsciously, they looked toward the hall.

In the direction of the hall, the people consciously divided the road, but saw someone …… actually came with a spirit seat and a porcelain vase.

With a snap, the huge porcelain vase slammed right down.

This porcelain vase shattered all over the place, and at the same time, the mutilated bones, too, were scattered all over the place.

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “Do you know what this is? Take a guess, whose ancestor is this?”

Zhang Erhe’s eyes reddened in a flash.

…………

The second chapter is delivered, a bit late, originally finished a long time ago, but for fear of breaking the chapter people do not enjoy, and write a little more.
