Warmth and Coldness

At this time, Zhu Gaosui squinted his eyes and said sinisterly: "Father, please ask me to copy Jingqing Guaman. His life, the lives of his nine clans, originally belonged to the father, so why should I use it as a bet? Father.

Just ignore him."

"idiot!"

Zhu Di, who was still angry, had just picked up the "Records of Emperor Taizu Gao" that had saved his life from the ground, and was about to throw it at the idiot Lao San.

However, the next moment, Zhu Di looked at the handwriting on a certain page in "Records" and was stunned for a moment.

"I am going to offer sacrifices to the southern suburbs to avoid harming all the officials. The deacon said: I move the heaven and the earth and feel the ghosts and gods. I am sincere and respectful. People all think that the sky is high and far away, and the ghosts and gods are hidden. Now it is time to pay tribute to all the officials and deacons.

You should be careful."

Zhu Di's thoughts seemed to go back to the time when he was taken by his eldest brother to see his father's majestic sacrifice in his childhood. At that time, he didn't understand why his supreme father was afraid of the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth.

But now looking at the wet blood on the Golden Palace, Zhu Di's eyebrows jumped, and his mood suddenly became complicated.

"Second brother, please go to Jingting Mountain yourself and invite Mr. Jiang and Duke Dao Rong back. If Duke Rong is in poor health, please ask Mr. Jiang to come back first. He cannot solve the current problem."

On top of the Golden Palace, Zhu Di thought for a few moments before giving instructions to Zhu Gaoxu.

"Yes, Father!" Zhu Gaoxu said, holding his fists in accordance with military etiquette.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi who was about to speak: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Father, Jing Qing's blood oath may have another meaning."

"Is there another meaning?" Zhu Di frowned slightly.

Zhu Gaochi answered honestly: "I am worried that by associating praying for rain with the imperial master, and by linking it with being a treacherous person, no matter whether praying for rain succeeds or not, someone with an intention will associate Mr. Jiang with Lin Lingsu."

.”

Lin Lingsu, a Taoist priest of the Northern Song Dynasty, benefited from Huizong with his magic, and lured Song Huizong to become the leader of the Shenxiao Sect, and then took control of the religious power of the Northern Song Dynasty. Later generations often attribute one of the reasons for Huizong's loss of the country to his belief in nothingness and his neglect of national affairs.

As a result, the people's power was exhausted, and the leader who promoted them to the level of "confidence" was Lin Lingsu.

Zhu Gaochi's worry was not unreasonable, because Lin Lingsu's unique skill was to pray for rain, and she fell into the rain in the end.

In the eighth year of the Zhenghe period, there was a severe drought in the Central Plains. Huizong once again asked Lin Lingsu to pray for rain, but this time it failed. Cai Jing took the opportunity to report that Lin Lingsu had no magical powers. Lin Lingsu recommended his old friend Nanfeng Taoist Wang Wenqing, saying

He was there

Shenxiao Palace is in charge of the rain department. After Wang Wenqing came, he asked for a three-day heavy rain. Lin Lingsu probably knew a little about weather and predicted that it would rain in a few days, so he asked Wang Wenqing to delay for a few days, and finally returned the favor.

They really waited for the rain.

But luck does not always favor those who pretend to be gods. In the first year of Xuanhe, it rained heavily and Kaifeng was besieged by floods. Huizong asked Lin Lingsu to try to rescue the disaster, but Lin Lingsu returned without success, while the prince Zhao Huan burned incense on the Kaifeng tower.

After praying, unexpectedly the flood actually receded. As a result, Lin Lingsu completely fell out of favor and was released back to her hometown.

Zhu Di immediately realized that the blood oath Jing Qing swore at the expense of himself and the whole family, no matter whether Jiang Xinghuo could pray for rain to break the situation, the result would probably not be good.

Because, even if Jiang Xinghuo has great supernatural powers and can pray for rain, who can guarantee that praying for rain will be effective every time? If there is a drought, the conservatives will use this matter to attack the reform. Can Jiang Xinghuo pray for rain every time?

?

Therefore, no matter how to deal with it, this is actually a dead end.

But Zhu Gaoyu came up abruptly at this time.

"Father, we must believe in science."

Zhu Gaoyu's words were stunned for the father and son in the hall.

We are here for feudal superstitions, do you tell me to believe in science?

"You forgot? At that time, when Mr. Jiang talked about geography, it was raining in the sky. In fact, it was the water vapor condensed in the air. The weather phenomenon caused by different ways to the surface of the land.

Praying rain can also prove that Thunder Rain dew is not a heavenly sense. "

Zhu Gaochi also had a bright look: "Father Emperor, if Mr. Jiang can really do this, if you want to come to this worry, you will not attack yourself!"

"Then don't you just call Mr. Jiang back?"

Zhu Xi kicked Zhu Gaoyu.

——————————

Besides, Jing Qing gave up his body, and Zhu Xi was angry.

Dressed in a flying fish suit, the Jinyi Ti ride with a waist cross -embroidered spring knife, the sound of the horseshoe almost shattered the early spring of Nanjing City.

As soon as I rode, the overwhelming stubborn wild grass resumed from the seam of the blue brick, as if the theft whispering from the mouth that people could not sew.

Around the small courtyard of the Jingqing family, a few courage came out to watch the lively and leisure people, and there were many discussions, guessing which changes that happened today are related to which rumors.

They all know that during this time, Jing Qing has been living in the government. Except for the daily out -of -dynasty, they teach disciples to learn poetry.

But just this morning, it is said that Jing Qing failed in the early dynasty. As soon as the news spread, the mansion of Jingqing's mansion was blocked by Jin Yiwei sent by Zhu Xi, and no one had to approach.

As for what happened to those who want to voyeur, they are also strictly prohibited.

Such a nervous attitude has made many people who did not believe in "Jingqing assassin" and have began to believe that Jing Qing may be really a problem -after all, even a few thousand households in Jin Yiwei rushed to the government in person, which shows that it can be seen that it can be seen that it can be seen that

This incident has seriously threatened the imperial power!

Everyone is looking forward to, hoping to hear a complete message from who's mouth.

"What did you say?"

In Jingfu, after listening to the news brought back by the servant this year, the eighty -nine -year -old lady was stunned when she boarded her lips, and her complexion became irony.

The old lady held the table with both hands, and her body trembled because of fear. She couldn't believe what she had heard in her ears, and she didn't want to accept this fact.

"Mrs., don't worry," the housekeeper helped her and comforted it: "Since there is no exact news now, these are all kinds of words.

Although the housekeeper is a consolation words, the look shows a bit of anxiety. It seems that it is not optimistic about whether Jing Qing will come back.

"Madam ..." The servant next to her wanted to help her, but she was pushed away by her: "Go! Go and hold me to hold two crickets over."

Jing Qing's parents had died since childhood, but this old lady, that is, his grandmother raised.

Jing Qing was filial piety. When she became an official, she not only wrote virginity for her own mother, but also received a service to her grandmother.

His two girls under his knees have not grown up yet. Seeing that this is a big event for the scenery of the Jing family. The old lady consciously has a lot of time. She does not care about life and death, but she can't let the Jing family really be ejaculated.

Two little girls aged seven or eight were carried over by servants. Seeing their ignorance, the old lady of the Jing family became even more sad. She directed the servants to tear off a piece of cloth and wrap it around their mouths, then quietly stuffed them in.

In a pickle vat in the cellar.

"Nanny, remember, no matter what happens outside, don't make a sound! When the rooster crows tomorrow, if you are not discovered and crawl out along the dog hole at home, you must remember to survive!"

These were the last words the two sisters heard before they were shrouded in shadow.

Many people gathered in the alley in front of Jingfu, waiting for the news. They were so anxious that they completely lost the excitement of eating melon.

They just felt that the whole place was shrouded in a thick layer of haze, making them breathless.

Because, if you eat melon, you will eat it on your own head.

The latest news has arrived.

——Jing Qing bets with the emperor on melon seeds!

At this time, the neighbors had no chance to discuss the case or sympathize with the situation.

Some of the neighbors on the street were so fierce that they even considered stabbing Jingqing's whole family.

The city of Nanjing and this square have been sealed off, and it is impossible to escape. While waiting anxiously, the final imperial edict arrived.

Several Jinyi guards came to the front of Jingfu surrounded by a scarlet-robed official. The Jinyiwei around Jingfu saluted in unison.

"See the Commander!"

Ji Gang got off his horse and glanced at the whole place with cold eyes.

Everyone immediately fell silent, and there was no sound. Only the heart was beating like a drum, panicking.

"According to the imperial decree, the traitor Jingqing and his family are arrested and brought to justice. The rest of the gang should retreat as soon as possible!"

Ji Gang's voice was a little low and hoarse, but it shocked everyone.

"Wow--"

When they heard that the neighbors would not be implicated, the crowd immediately exploded.

"The traitor Jingqing deserves to die!"

"Your Majesty is wise and mighty, and with the blessing of God, Jing Qing, a wolf-hearted man, actually chose to betray the Ming Dynasty at such a juncture!"

"Tsk, tsk, Doctor Jing ended up like this. It's really a pitiful person who must be hateful."

"Oh! Why is Doctor Jing so hard to think about it!"

…

People shook their heads and sighed with regret.
