"Have you heard? Dozens more rebels from the White Lotus Sect have surrendered to the court."
At a construction site outdoors in Datong, several workers began to whisper again.
"What's so strange about this?" Another person curled his lips disdainfully: "Aren't rebels from the White Lotus Sect defecting to the imperial court every day recently? It's not a particularly rare thing."
"You don't know this, right? I heard that the person who surrendered yesterday was still a small leader of the white religion."
"Those people from the White Lotus Sect are all pitiful people."
"Before, I always thought that the rebels of the Bai Yuan Sect were a bunch of vicious guys."
"After seeing more of them, I realized that those people were no different from us. They were just a group of poor people who couldn't afford to eat."
The man next to him put down the tools in his hands: "We are much luckier than them, and we met His Royal Highness."
"Not only can I have food to eat now, but I can also save some money every day. When the drought passes next year, I will be able to live a sustainable life in retrospect."
"Are you still planning to go?" A young man said proudly: "I have decided to join the imperial construction team in the future. Isn't this a lot more money than what we used to earn by digging food in the fields?"
"Although I earn a lot of money on the construction site, I still feel that neutrality is more stable." Everyone has different ideas, and some people miss life in their hometown more.
But no matter what thoughts they hold, they are at least very satisfied with their current lives.
While they were talking, there were several people around who were busy working, and they listened to all their words.
However, they did not get involved in the conversation of these people, and just silently went about the work at hand.
Until the construction started, these people returned to their homes in twos and threes.
After looking around vigilantly, he found that everyone around him was busy with his own business, so they cautiously gathered together and began to whisper.
"Brother, what should we do now? The people above are completely unreachable."
"And now more and more people have surrendered to the court. If this continues, our identities will be exposed sooner or later."
A younger man raised his hand cautiously: "How about we also surrender to the court?"
"In the past, those dog officials in the imperial court never did anything for human affairs. They only knew how to bully us common people all day long."
"But I think it's different here. Life is much better than what we had before."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was scolded by several people around him.
"Shut up! Do you know what you are talking about?"
"None of the officials in the Dog Court are good. This is just a way to confuse us."
"Now they are just afraid that we will rebel, so they are treating us better. They will definitely return to their original state in the future."
When these people talked about the imperial court, they all looked murderous. If there was an official in front of them at this time, they would definitely be hacked to death.
The reason why they are so angry is because they were bullied miserably by those guys who thought they were superior.
Chen Xueying and everyone in the White Lotus Sect probably did not expect that the situation would be worse than they imagined.
In just two or three days, almost three-quarters of the people they brought over had surrendered to the court.
Under this situation, even those who had not surrendered to the court began to panic.
After all, if they didn't surrender voluntarily, someone might tell their identities to the court.
Anyone who is not a fool knows that the outcome is completely different between surrendering and being caught by the court.
These people are also facing the same choice.
One of the oldest ones hesitated and said: "But if we continue like this, we will only be caught as rebels."
"Don't talk about us then, the whole family might be implicated."
Someone roared angrily: "The dog court will do this, one person does the work and the other takes the blame. Why do you want to involve our family members?"
No one could answer his question.
After all, these things are not just what they think they can do.
"Brother, do you already have an idea?" Someone asked in a low voice.
The older White Lotus Sect rebel sighed helplessly: "Now we can't contact any of us, so we can only figure out our own solutions no matter what."
"Brothers, although we are not from the same place, we are still brothers after all."
"We are all ordinary people with responsibilities, and I don't want you brothers to end up with the reputation of being a rebel."
"So, I decided that we should surrender to the court together."
"If any brother disagrees, you can leave now."
"I can assure everyone that I will never reveal any information about you."
"As soon as we walk out of this door, we will be strangers we have never met from now on."
After finishing speaking, they looked bitterly at the other people in the room: "Now, brothers, decide, should you go or stay? It all depends on you."
Everyone looked at each other, no one dared to speak.
They all also understand that whether they stay or go this time may affect the rest of their lives.
For a moment, no one dared to act rashly.
But what none of them knew was that the area around their residence, which looked no different from usual, was actually already filled with royal guards.
The leader was Deng Yun, the captain of the Jinyi Guards, and the person next to Deng Yun turned out to be Gao Fei.
At this time, one of Deng Yun's subordinates was reporting the situation to Deng Yun: "Colonel, at present we have found no signs that those people have contacted anyone else."
Deng Yun didn't seem too anxious: "Continue to observe, as long as these people are not allowed to escape."
Gao Fei really didn't understand Jin Yiwei's strange behavior.
The reason why he appears here is because these people entered Datong Mansion through the checkpoint where he was.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I said Captain Deng, these people have been watching for most of the day. Since you have been able to confirm that they are rebels from the White Lotus Sect, why don't you just rush in and arrest them?
People, do you want to waste your time here?"
Deng Yun glanced at Gao Fei contemptuously: "What do you know? We are playing a long game to catch the big fish."
Unlike many people, Deng Fei looked down upon people like Gao Fei.
Many of the current Jin Yiwei's middle and lower ranks are selected from the army.
For a wanderer like Gao Fei, it is not pleasing to the eye when viewed horizontally or vertically.
I always feel that it is ridiculous to allow such a person to be an official.
If this matter was not ordered by his own prince himself, he would have scolded the people above him to death.
In this world, there are many people who would rather die than surrender.
But the vast majority are just ordinary people.
Whether it is the White Lotus Sect that I have a headache for, or the White Lotus Sect that is caught by a banned person.
Most of them were very happy to tell Jin Yiwei the details of their gang.
It can be said that except for Chen Xueying, who has not yet appeared, and a few senior officials of the White Lotus Sect.
Jin Yiwei now has the location of all the members of the White Lotus Sect lurking in Datong Mansion.
Moreover, most of the members of the White Lotus Sect have surrendered to the imperial court, and the remaining number is not particularly large.
As long as they wanted to, it wouldn't even take a few hours to arrest all the members of the White Lotus Sect.
It's a pity that my prince is kind-hearted and doesn't want to kill all these people.
As long as there are no human lives on his hands, the prince will not deal with them seriously.
So as long as these people don't do anything extraordinary, Jin Yiwei will not attack them directly.
As long as they are not arrested as rebels, even ordinary people will not be punished too severely.
Although Zhu Han's approach caused Jin Yiwei a lot of trouble, no one had any complaints.
For those who had killed countless people on the battlefield, Zhu Han's approach was obviously more humane.
No matter what, it is much better than those who don't take people's lives seriously.
"You've almost caught all the fish in this pond, and you haven't caught any big fish." Gao Fei sneered disdainfully.
"What?" Deng Fei raised his eyebrows: "Do you have any objections to the prince's order?"
Gao Fei's sneer froze on his face: "Don't you dare to spit on others. When did I have any opinions on the fate of the prince?"
"As expected of Jin Yiwei, he is really good at deceiving others."
"Whether it is a trap or not, you know in your heart." Deng Yun showed no sign of weakness: "So many people from the White Lotus Sect entered Datong Mansion from the place you are responsible for, and you don't even know at all."
"There is no doubt that you and the White Lotus sect are colluding internally and externally with the intention of treason, so just have fun secretly."
Gao Fei was almost driven crazy: "You bastard, did you do this on purpose?"
"These people from the White Lotus Sect are not just from me, so why do they only suspect me?"
It wasn't that he wanted to shirk the blame, he just simply felt dissatisfied.
According to Jin Yiwei's statistics, there are almost more than 2,000 members of the White Lotus Sect who have entered Datong Mansion.
Not all of these people came from his side, but Deng Fei only stared at him and talked about things.
Deng Fei raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "Everyone else is just an ordinary person, but aren't you, Gao Fei, a hero? A famous figure in the world."
"You don't even know that the White Lotus Sect has entered your territory. Do you think your explanation is convincing?"
"I..." Gao Fei was so shocked that he almost couldn't breathe.
It's definitely not okay to admit this kind of thing. Doesn't that mean that you are really connected with the White Lotus Sect?
The White Lotus Sect entered Datong Mansion, but there was no news about him. What was their motive?
But if you deny it, isn't that just a slap in your face?
However, Deng Lin also really underestimated Gao Fei's face. The thickness of face of a person who can become a hero is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
After the initial depression, Gao Fei said with an upright look: "Of course I, a great hero, have nothing to do with rebels like the White Lotus Sect."
"Captain Deng, please don't spit on others."
Deng Yun himself has met many people, but he has never seen such a shameless person: "Who knows whether what you said is true or false?"
"Perhaps you are also in the same group as the White Lotus Sect, but you are hiding it more deeply." As he said this, he looked at Gao Fei with unkind eyes.
Gao Fei responded unceremoniously: "Colonel Deng, you are not doubting me, you are doubting the prince."
"The prince personally came to visit me and invited me to be an official. If you suspect that I am from the White Lotus Sect, doesn't that mean you think the prince has misjudged the person?" Gao Fei said proudly, patting his chest.
This time, it was Deng Yun's turn to be speechless.
The two people were still bickering when a Jin Yiwei sentry quickly ran over: "Captain Deng, those people from the White Lotus Sect are out."
After hearing the report from the Jin Yiwei, Deng Yun immediately sighed: "How come there are not many of these guys from the White Lotus Sect who have backbone? They have been watching for so long and they are about to surrender."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Fei retorted: "How do you know these people came out to surrender? Maybe they are looking for their accomplices, or they have something else to do."
Deng Yun sneered: "So, you guys may not be that great at other things. You are indeed more self-righteous than the others."
"If there are only one or two people coming out, my staff will naturally arrange for someone to follow them. Only when special circumstances arise will they notify me."
"But it's only been a stick of incense since they last reported to me."
"It can't be because of what those White Lotus Sect members who left did."
"That is to say, there are a relatively large number of people leaving. During this time period, so many people left their residences together."
"There is only one possibility, and that is that they intend to surrender to the court."
"Go fly!" Deng Yun said with a serious tone, as if he had experienced it before: "I don't know it's not your fault, but you still think you know everything because of your ignorance. That's your fault."
"I..." Gao Fei really wanted to punch this guy in the face.
Why is this Jin Yiwei so annoying?
"Old Chang, tell me, does this guy deserve a beating?" After returning home, Gao Fei gritted his teeth and told Dean Zhu what happened today.
Of course, he used his Spring and Autumn style of writing to describe the fact that he was rendered speechless by Deng Yun.
But he emphatically pointed out that the other party clearly couldn't speak well of him, but he still thought he was right. He was simply not a son of a man.
Zhu Yuanzhang could naturally tell at a glance that Gao Fei didn't mean what he said, and he didn't expose what this guy said.
He just sighed and said: "The court's actions are quite fast. Now it seems that the White Lotus Sect's troubles should be solved in a short time."
He said he was relaxed, but in fact Lao Zhu was not so optimistic in his heart.
Since the White Lotus Sect deliberately wanted to rebel, if it could be solved so easily by Zhu Han, it would not have been so long before it was completely wiped out by the imperial court.
Lao Zhu is almost certain that we have other means waiting for them.
