Chapter 143: Coincidence
Rules!
Everywhere!
Spring, summer, autumn and winter are the rules, wind, frost, rain and snow are the rules, the weak eat the strong, birth, old age, sickness and death are also the rules!
Generally, people call these rules the way of heaven.
Since the dawn of human wisdom, the original way of heaven has needed to be subdivided. Then there were three emperors to rule the world, and five emperors to establish their relationships... For countless generations, the most important thing the emperors did was to formulate laws rule.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu searched for talented people from all over the world and formulated the "Da Ming Law", which then began the Ming Dynasty's rule of more than 250 years.
A long time has passed, and the "Da Ming Law" that was regarded as the standard has gradually come to an end.
The rich are getting richer, and the poor are getting poorer. When the rich are extravagant and lustful, they have wine pools and meat forests, and the poor are hungry and have no place to stand.
When the "Law of the Ming Dynasty", the knife that governs the world, can no longer stop people from wanting to have enough food and clothing, troubled times will inevitably begin.
This is like a fire running underground: once the lava erupts, it will burn out all the weeds and trees, leaving nothing to decay...
Then, it will fall. The wind blows, the rain falls, the snow falls, and then the vast expanse of white becomes really clean.
Yun Zhao never thought of a dead world.
So, he wanted to control the underground fire. When the underground fire was running, he opened a lid and let the lava flow on the ground, burning some weeds and trees to a limited extent.
Kaifeng City is the lid that Qian Duoduo wants to lift.
This is a dangerous city!
There was no snow all winter last year, and not a drop of rain fell around Kaifeng in early spring. By the time the harvest was over, the farmers had no food and had to go out to find a way to survive.
Henan has a vast land and a large population.
Among them, Luoyang and Kaifeng have the largest number of people.
Two cities, two kings, one is King Fu and the other is King Zhou.
Zuo Liangyu was in Luoyang, and his reputation for evil spread far and wide. The refugees did not dare to approach Luoyang, so a large number of refugees gathered in Kaifeng.
The King of Zhou ignored the censor's impeachment and set up a porridge shed to prolong the lives of the people. However, he was impeached by Gao Mingheng, the governor of Henan, and had to imprison himself in the Zhou Palace to plead guilty.
This was an extremely delicate moment. Qian Duoduo thought he could kill Gao Mingheng to see what would happen.
When Qian Duoduo and Yun Zhao discussed Gao Mingheng in their letters, Yun Zhao was full of disgust for this person.
It even gave Qian Duoduo the feeling of wanting to kill this person quickly.
Therefore, Qian Duoduo thought it would be very good to use Gao Mingheng as a test site.
The group of people finally left Zhongmu and entered the tightly sealed Kaifeng City holding the badge of Prince Qin's Palace.
The king of Zhou imprisoned himself, and Qian Duoduo and his party could not enter the Zhou Dynasty.Instead, he lived in the King of Zhou's villa in Yishan, not far from the famous Kaifeng Iron Tower.
The Iron Pagoda is located in Kaibao Temple. Kaibao Temple used to be on a mountain, and its name was Yishan. However, the unlucky city of Kaifeng was always flooded by the Yellow River. Therefore, a Yishan Mountain has now become If you build a mound and get flooded by the Yellow River a few times, it may become a highland.
In the 30th year of Jiajing's reign, King Zhou renovated the Kaifeng Glaze Pagoda, and the Kaibao Temple was also renovated, making it a rare quiet place in Kaifeng City.
Only after Qian Duoduo moved into Yishan Villa, he immediately sent someone to buy gold thread and silk again, preparing to make his own wedding dress again.
This time it was very fast because there were so many people!
This time, Qian Duoduo will never allow his good deeds to be ruined.
However, when Liang San told Qian Duoduo that Feng Ying had captured Xixia County, attacked Xishui County, and defeated Zuo Liangyu's 3,000 men with 800 cavalry at Dongxiantai, she still He stopped what he was doing and beat Yunhua severely.
If Yunhua hadn't been so troublesome, she would have arrived at Tongguan by now.
Fortunately, Feng Ying was busy with the war and showed no sign of returning to Lantian County, which made Qian Duoduo feel relieved.
"Why is Gao Mingheng not dead yet?"
When Liang San came back at night, Qian Duoduo asked anxiously.
"It's not that easy. After all, he is the patrol officer of Henan and a high official. This person usually has a good reputation. It's hard to say what reaction will be caused after killing him. So, you have to be careful."
Liang San still felt uneasy. He still felt that Qian Duoduo was angry at the wedding dress being destroyed.
Qian Duoduo stopped the needlework in his hand and said: "The refugees in Henan have reached the extreme poverty level and need a way to vent. Otherwise, things will not develop as we expected, and it will give us a lot of trouble in the future." The plan brought trouble.
The purpose of killing Gao Mingheng was to change the attitude of the government and let them realize the seriousness of the matter. They could not hide in the city and ignore the hungry people outside the city. "
Liang San looked at Qian Duoduo with a smile and said: "Aren't you worried that there will be thieves taking the opportunity to cause trouble?"
Qian Duoduo sighed and said: "A Zhao is coming with me. As I said, it’s going to rain and my mother wants to get married, so let it go. We will only do what we think we should do.”
Liang Sandao: “In that case, I will give the order.”
Qian Duoduo picked up the needle and thread again and began to sew the wedding dress. But in a daze, the needle pricked her index finger. Looking at a drop of bright red blood oozing out from her finger, she silently put her finger into her mouth. After a while, he took out his finger and saw that it was no longer bleeding. He whispered: "No matter what, I will bleed first."
Wu Guoyu wiped a handful of greasy tables. The tables in the mutton soup restaurant always I can't wipe it clean, there's always a thick layer of grease on it.
It exudes the unique smell of mutton soup restaurant.
Usually, Wu Guoyu only wiped the table once. Today, he wiped the table near the door.He has wiped the table in front of me no less than six times.
The boy thought he had done something wrong and wanted to take the rag and continue wiping, but Wu Guoyu refused.
Opposite his small mutton soup restaurant, there is a coffin shop. The outside of the shop is filled with funeral supplies such as paper money. Nearby, there is a small vendor selling bamboo poles, leaning against the Taking a nap in the corner and being lazy.
At the end of the street is the Henan Patrol Office. Two tall stone lions glared at the people walking on the street with bulging eyes.
Two soldiers holding spears stood guard outside the gate, and four guards stood on the steps with their hands on the hilts of their swords.
Further up, there is the tall black painted lintel of the Xunjian Yamen. The lintel blocks the sunlight, making the Xunjian Yamen look deep and gloomy.
Until now, Wu Guoyu still doesn't understand why Gao Mingheng was assassinated. This is very inconsistent with their mission here.
The first mission they received was to monitor Kaifeng City, provide information related to Lantian County, and take the opportunity to infiltrate the rebel army.
Wu Guoyu firmly believes that among these missions, the most important is to sneak into the rebel army! After all, the Ming government was not Lantian County’s first target.
Now, the refugees outside Kaifeng City are like ants, which should attract the attention of some giant bandits. If he is exposed now, it will be very detrimental to his future plan to infiltrate the rebel army.
However, an order is an order, and Wu Guoyu is not allowed to object.
The gate of the Xunjian Yamen is far opposite to the gate of the Prince of Zhou's Mansion, and the Xunjian Yamen is open day and night. Anyone who comes to report news about the King of Zhou can enter at any time.
When the sun shines into the governor's office, a carriage will appear, protected by eight guards, and go straight to the Prince of Zhou's Mansion at the end of the street.
It was Gao Mingheng's routine job to inspect whether the king of Zhou abided by the rules every day, and he was extremely concerned about this matter.
The last time King Zhou took the initiative to open a porridge shed, Gao Mingchen was greatly shocked. He almost thought that King Zhou had already rebelled.
What happened was as Wu Guoyu expected. When the time came, a carriage drove out of the patrol yamen, followed by eight guards as usual.
Wu Guoyu hung up the water sign that there will be lambs today, and the carpenter who was working in the coffin shop opposite stopped his work, sat in the dark coffin shop, looked outside, and put his hand in picked up the bamboo basket on the side.
The boy selling bamboo poles gathered the bamboo poles into a large bundle, leaned against the wall, and was tying them with ropes.
Seeing that the carriage was about to come, Wu Guoyu's pupils shrank violently and became smaller. He took off the water sign with his backhand and slowly returned to the mutton restaurant. He continued to wipe it, and it seemed that he would never be able to wipe it. Clean tables.
The carpenter in the coffin shop yawned and came outside to bask in the sun. He followed Wu Guoyu's gaze and then turned his attention to Wu Guoyu again. Wu Guoyu shook his head.
The carpenter and the boy selling bamboo poles looked at the strong man carrying a load of dried dates.Approach the carriage.
As long as you find one wrong person, you can quickly find the second, third, or even fourth person.
It was at this time that Wu Guoyu and others were surprised to find that there seemed to be more people on this street than before, and they were all new faces.
"Uncle Liang, why haven't you heard anything? Didn't Wu Guoyu say that Gao Mingheng would go to Prince Zhou's Mansion at this time every day?"
Qian Duoduo pricked up his ears and did not hear gunpowder. Despite the sound of explosions, there seemed to be no commotion in the Wangfu Street area. ”
“Maybe it’s delayed! "
Liang San is also very confused. Yun's hidden stakes rarely cause accidents!
"Boom! ”
A loud noise came from the Wangfu Street area, shaking the ground, and then a plume of black smoke rose from Wangfu Street.
Qian Duoduo looked at the There was a billow of black smoke rising into the sky, and he gritted his teeth and said to Liang San: "How much gunpowder did they use? "
Liang San said: "Listen to the movement, it will definitely not be less than a hundred pounds. "
"Are they crazy? We just wanted to kill Gao Mingheng, not let them kill the neighbors. "
Liang San looked confused, stamped his feet and said to Qian Duoduo: "I'll go take a look. "
Qian Duoduo shook his head and said: "The matter is over, we are waiting for the news. Whoever goes to Wangfu Street at this time will be in trouble." "
"Boom, boom, boom boom..."
There were four loud noises in succession. Qian Duoduo was so shocked that his face turned pale. He grabbed Liang San's sleeve and said: " Was this where it was bombed again? "
Liang San looked at the place where the smoke was rising and trembled: "City gate! No, someone is going to attack the city! "
Qian Duoduo swallowed and said: "How can we attack the city with so many people? ”
Liang San loudly said: “This is not what we did, the bandits are really attacking the city, or in other words, they want to open the city gate and let the refugees outside the city into the city.
Gathering everyone together, we immediately left the city through the nearest west gate without daring to delay for a moment. ”
