Chapter One Hundred and Seventy-Seven: Achievements Only Today
Piaotian Literature Chapter 177: Making contributions can only happen today
On the streets of Yingchunfang, fires were everywhere, and a team of captains came out carrying lanterns.
The streets were noisy, and in the canal, small boats came out of the dock one after another. Chen Hongyu led the team, holding a ten-foot-long bamboo pole to investigate in the water.
Then a group of knights crossed the street at lightning speed, and outside the gate courtyard wall of Tianyi Road, there were three levels of captains on the inside and three levels on the outside surrounding the place airtightly.
This time, not only the Fireworks Alley, but also several hundred households next door had people seconded. This secondment did not go through the town government department, but directly asked people for help with money, one tael of silver each, and hundreds of people came at once.
"Liu Chengfeng...where is Liu Chengfeng?" A group of knights came over, and the leader shouted, looking a little nervous and anxious.
Under the shadow of the fire, Liu Chengfeng responded: "It turns out to be Lord Qianhu, what are your orders from Lord Qianhu?"
The man on the horse immediately dismounted. This man was the newly appointed Inner West City Qianhu Zheng Jin. Zheng Jin came up to meet him and said: "Liu Chengfeng, what are you doing? Why are you making such a fuss all of a sudden? No.
If you act rashly with the approval of the town government secretary, you will be punished."
Ever since Zheng Jin became a Qianhu, he has always had a quiet and inactive attitude, and has never paid much attention to what happened next. There is nothing that can be done about it, for example, there is such a stupid Baihu in the Baihu Office in Firework Alley.
Although he is a Qianhu, he still remembers Liu Zhongxia's lessons. He just hopes that he will not have any contact with Liu Chengfeng and can live happily as a Qianhu.
Just last time, Liu Chengfeng went to the streets to suppress the civil uprising. For this reason, Mou Bin called him to the town government office and reprimanded him personally, saying that he was not strict with his subordinates and that Liu Chengfeng went around killing people.
Qianhu's people didn't even know beforehand.
When Zheng Jin came today, he also heard the news. He was startled and quickly came to stop it. With the lesson learned from the last time, this time although he knew that this hundred households were not easy to deal with, he had to step forward.
"Liu Chengfeng, what are you doing here again?" Zheng Jin approached Liu Chengfeng, then put on a majestic look and yelled loudly.
Liu Chengfeng held the sword in his hand and could not choke Zheng Jin to death with one sentence: "Sir, I am humbled to suppress bandits!"
Suppress bandits...
We also suppressed bandits last time... but the result was an earth-shattering incident. This man named Liu is simply a lunatic.
"Where are the bandits? Is there an imperial edict? Or is it a warrant from the town government department? If not, the suppression of the bandits needs to be considered in the long term. Liu Chengfeng, call your people back immediately. Otherwise, I will not
So I can explain it to my boss." Zheng Jin originally wanted to threaten him, but when he said otherwise, he felt that Liu Chengfeng, a fool, might not fall for his tricks. After all, he had a strong relationship and a strong backstage, so they had a falling out.
Not good for yourself.
Liu Chengfeng sneered and said: "Withdraw? This is not possible. Sir, do you know that once we withdraw, these bandits will escape completely. When the time comes, we will go to get people. Where can I ask you to get them? Sir...
…You and I are pro-soldiers and His Majesty’s personal bodyguards, specializing in detective work and checking against rebels. There are more than a hundred rebels in this house right now. If we don’t take them away now, when will we wait?”
He spoke so sternly that Zheng Jin was speechless for a moment, so he had to say: "Okay, you can take it if you want." But he was thinking in his heart, if you take it, if you are innocent, the town office will naturally issue a note to let him go.
Speaking of which, his thousands of households are pitiful. Among the thousands of households in the capital, there is really no one who is worse off than him. There is such a wolf-like subordinate below, who can't even speak very well.
At this time, a small flag came over quickly and said: "Master Baihu, I humbly led someone to knock on the door. Not only did the rioters inside not open the door, they also threw stones from inside and injured several of our brothers."
Liu Chengfeng pressed his sword, his face suddenly became stern, and said: "This day is a den of thieves, and the opposite is exposed. If you dare to resist the pro-army, you are an unforgivable crime! If someone comes, prepare to break down the door. Anyone who dares to resist the pro-army will be punished.
Kill without mercy!"
Xiaoqi said excitedly: "Yes!" After that, he quickly left.
Zheng Jin's expression changed drastically when he heard that he wanted to kill someone again. This time it was really difficult.
Liu Chengfeng was too lazy to pay attention to him. He jumped on a horse, and he was surrounded by the captain of the third level inside and outside the third level. He shouted into the big house: "You rebels, the incident has now been revealed. What happened now,
Do you still dare to resist the officers and soldiers? I will count three times. If you don't come out again, you will be tied up. After the door is broken, they will be killed without mercy. Once..."
"two……"
Not a single sound came out of the deep mansion, which looked particularly eerie under the moonlit night.
"three……"
"Fight in!"
Liu Chengfeng gave an order, led by Lao Huo, and led a team of captains to bring a long ladder and tools to break the door, and then began to break down the door and climb over the wall. Hundreds of captains attacked at the same time, and the momentum was huge.
"Boom..." The door burst open, and then came a flood of pro-army soldiers, holding embroidered spring knives and charging in. In the darkness, there were clearly figures running away, and then there were long screams and sounds of fighting.
Liu Chengfeng led a group of people and went in surrounded by layers of people. There were already corpses left on the ground inside the courtyard wall. The backbone of Tianyi Road obviously knew that they would die, but they resisted particularly fiercely. There were people all the way there.
Blood.
It's just that these people were caught off guard from the beginning, and because we were outnumbered and the enemy was outnumbered, it only took two sticks of incense to control the situation in Tianyi Yiyi's lair.
After killing dozens of religious bandits and capturing more than thirty others, Liu Chengfeng ordered a search. After a while, Secretary Wang hurried to Liu Chengfeng's side and said, "Sir, we have discovered something."
Liu Chengfeng looked around and said, "Take me there."
The two of them entered a bedroom one after another. Clerk Wang explained: "This is where Tianxuanzi, the Taoist Master of the Heavenly Way, stays. The student specially asked someone to guard outside and come in to search personally. Sir, please take a look."
Walking to a bookcase, Secretary Wang said: "There is a row of bookcases here. At first, the student thought it was strange that this old Taoist could still read books? So he picked up a few books and read them. Except for a few Taoist scriptures, there were many books in this bookcase.
There is actually a Three-Character Classic, which makes the student even more suspicious. The Three-Character Classic is an enlightenment book. What is the old man doing putting such a book here? The student then tried to push the bookcase away..."
Secretary Wang tried to push the bookcase to the side, and then a doorway half a man's height appeared in front of Liu Chengfeng.
Official Wang said: "Sir, please come in."
Liu Chengfeng bent down and drilled into the cave with his sword in his hand, but the inside suddenly became brighter. Secretary Wang lit the lamp, and under the dim light, he could already see the appearance of the secret room. This was the layout of a Buddhist hall.
There are confessions, screens, and even several green-faced and fanged statues standing next to the confessions. The most eye-catching one is a giant Buddha.
This Buddha is half a foot high and is made of granite. However, due to its age and the fact that it has been in this dark and humid secret room all year round, it seems a little mottled.
Liu Chengfeng looked at it carefully and then said: "Is this the statue of Mani?"
Official Wang nodded, picked up the two handwritten books on the confession, and said: "There are also the Guangming Sutra and the Mani Mingzun Sutra here. Please take a look, sir."
Liu Chengfeng casually opened it and looked at it twice, with a gloomy expression on his face, and then said: "That's right. These people are indeed the remnants of the Ming Cult. It's a pity that the monk left."
Wang Sili said: "This is the den of Tianyi Dao, but I don't know where Tian Xuanzi has escaped to now. If we can get him, we must be able to find out something."
Liu Chengfeng nodded and said: "Start arresting him immediately. We must capture him no matter what. The clue lies in the monk and Tian Xuanzi! As for the Buddhist hall, don't move for the time being. Send someone to guard it and no one is allowed to enter or exit."
Wang Sili, it is only now that you can make great achievements."
Secretary Wang was also very excited. He had spent his whole life doing nothing, burying his head in this document. He never dared to think about the words "making a great contribution", but now, a great future is in front of him.
"Sir, I also found this thing." Secretary Wang mysteriously pulled out a piece of cloth from his sleeve. There were obviously ink marks on the cloth. However, the cloth seemed to be too old and had become moldy. However, due to preservation,
Due to the appropriateness, I could finally make out the handwriting on the cloth.
Liu Chengfeng took the cloth, read the handwriting inside, his face was slightly stunned, and then said: "This..."
Secretary Wang said excitedly: "My lord, there is nothing wrong at all. This is the handwriting of Emperor Taizu."
Liu Chengfeng took a breath, it was just Emperor Taizu's handwriting, the most important thing was the content here.
When Emperor Hongwu wrote this book, he must have not yet unified the world and had not proclaimed himself emperor. He was just the king of Wu. This is a memorial written by Emperor Hongwu to Han Lin'er, the young king of Ming Dynasty who had already proclaimed himself emperor at that time.
The attitude inside was very sincere. If it hadn't been for Secretary Wang's reminder, Liu Chengfeng would never have thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would write to Xiao Ming Wang Han Lin'er in this tone.
The letter not only professed vassalage to King Xiao Ming, but also congratulated King Ming on his birthday in the name of a believer, and there was even a hint of flattery in his words.
No matter what Zhu Yuanzhang's mentality was when he wrote this memorial, whether it was to keep his reputation obscure, or to take advantage of the power of Xiao Ming Wang Han Lin'er, there is a hint here - Zhu Yuanzhang's identity in the Ming sect.
.
As a Mingjiao believer, after gaining control of the world, he ordered a strict ban on Mingjiao. This incident has always been the most taboo thing for Zhu Yuanzhang. Even when the Ming Dynasty was compiling the history of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was also very taboo about this matter. But now this memorial reveals that
This is a disgraceful history.
Liu Chengfeng carefully sealed the memorial and said: "No one is allowed to mention this matter. I will report it to the palace. His Majesty will be very happy when he sees this memorial, and he will be rewarded by himself."
I'm sure I'm happy. After Zhu Yuanzhang succeeded to the throne, he must have sent people to search for this memorial, for fear that it would be published to the public. Although up to now, the emperors of the past dynasties have taken this memorial lightly, but after all, this thing
It is a bit taboo, and if it falls into the hands of some rogue parties, it can even be used as a tool to question the legitimacy of the Ming Dynasty. If Zhu Youtang saw this memorial, he would probably be relieved.
