my days with tyrants

Chapter 114

The first month passed without incident.

Soon it was February, and Ambassador Yang officially set off for the north.

Zhenjiang.

"Master really keeps his word."

Yang Feng looked at Yao Guangxiao who came to meet him.

"Since the ambassador sincerely invites you, how dare the poor monk break the appointment, who is this?"

Yao Guangxiao looked at the old monk beside him.

"This is the eminent monk I want to introduce to you."

Yang Feng said.

"Senior brother is majestic, Gu Panjian has an awe-inspiring presence, and he was also a hero before he became a monk."

Yao Guangxiao said vigilantly.

The old monk smiled slightly...

"The master really knows how to meet each other. I thought it was all bragging later. He is indeed a hero. Back then, the hero almost took the life of your emperor among thousands of troops."

Yang Feng exclaimed.

So this demon monk is really a bit of himself.

Yao Guangxiao instinctively took two steps back, staring at the old monk with wide eyes.

"Zhang Dingbian?"

He let out a groan in embarrassment.

Then Yang Feng put on a weird smile and hugged his shoulder from the side.

"Master, don't be afraid, your emperor knows!"

As he spoke, Yang Feng pointed to the Jin Yiwei who was in charge of escorting him.

Of course he is protected by Jin Yiwei.

A hundred households escorted him with fifty brocade guards.

Yao Guangxiao looked at the calm eyes of those guards in Jinyi, and was sure that Zhu Yuanzhang knew about it, but he was still quite frightened. At this moment, Yang Feng, who was holding his shoulders, could feel his heart beating faster.So this psychological quality is still much worse than that of Zhang Dingbian. Although Yao Guangxiao is a generation of monster monks, this kind of monster monks is still inferior to Zhang Dingbian, a hero in troubled times.

The levels are different!

A monstrous monk like him would indeed make trouble in peacetime, but in a truly chaotic world, it would not be enough for a hero like Zhang Dingbian.

Kill him like a dog!
"The poor monk is just a monk now, following His Majesty's order, he went to Huining to set up a temple."

Zhang Dingbian said calmly.

While speaking, he drew the imperial decree from his arms.

The real decree.

Zhu Yuanzhang appointed him as the presiding officer of Yongning Temple, and went to Nuergancheng to build Yongning Temple...

Nuergancheng also belongs to Huining, Huining is the commander of Jinghaiwei City, which belongs to the division, and it is still an official garrison. There are already a thousand soldiers there. Jinghaiwei is the same as [-] Wei. The thousands of households who surrendered, including Kuwu on Sakhalin Island, are also under the care of Jinghaiwei.

So building temples is inevitable.

The best option is to make those messy tribes worship Buddha.

As for why Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought of this old enemy, it was Yang Feng's instigation, of course. The households are for the people and according to the standard of ordinary household registration, they are given cattle, farm tools, seeds, etc., and then go to Fengyang Prefecture to reclaim wasteland and farmland, but they have to go to Huining, that is, follow Yang Feng as hired labor to reclaim wasteland.

Then leave the rest to Yang Feng.

These people are young in their 40s, and the older ones are in their fifties or sixties.

It is to let them die in Huining, and then in exchange, leave their descendants with the legal status of a registered household in the Ming Dynasty.

They are Yang Feng's employees. If they die, Yang Feng will take back the burial expenses for their family members, and pay them wages if they are alive. Although they are older, they are more than enough to suppress those Jurchens in Huining, whether it is Mongolia or not. , As for opening up wasteland and farming, he is also a good hand.And their family members were detained in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, and they did not dare to rebel, and Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have to spend money on them. In the end, he could manage a real farming area for Zhu Yuanzhang, which can be said to squeeze out the final value.And Yang Feng's additional condition was to let Zhang Dingbian go to Huining to build a temple. Although he wanted to stay in Huining City, Zhu Yuanzhang changed to go to Nuer Gancheng, but it's not a big deal, anyway, he can do whatever he wants when he arrives in Huining.

In fact, not only Yongning Temple, Zhu Yuanzhang also built many temples at the same time in the area under the command of the envoy in Huining.

The one on Changbai Mountain is the Five Dragon Palace.

Huining city is one.

One in Jilin City.

There is a city of Xiguan.

The first batch of these five temples were repaired, and he appointed monks to preside over them.

Of course, other monks like Zhang Dingbian are definitely not, they are all serious monks, Zhang Dingbian is purely stuffed in, anyway, throwing him to Huining is better than him wandering outside, always doing something unrealistic fantasy.

The important thing is...

He can give fantasies to those old rebels!
Otherwise, Yang Feng would not be able to let those old rebels open up wasteland in Huining with peace of mind.

With him there, he coaxed the old rebels to say that we wait for the opportunity to open up wasteland in Huining and gather grass and grain. One day, seeing that the Zhu family is exhausted, we will go south again.With Zhang Dingbian here, you can rest assured, and the rest is that these old guys wait day after day, and after another ten years, they will not be able to climb at all.At that time, even if they still have the heart, they don’t have the strength anymore, and then they will pay some pensions and go home to coax their grandchildren. It’s hard to rebel on the kang, so leave such a promising career to young people!

Of course Zhu Yuanzhang liked such a good design.

As for Yang Feng harboring evil intentions...

The relatives of these old rebels remained in the pass, and they were Zhu Yuanzhang's hostages.

rebel?

Rebellion kills the whole family!

Zhang Dingbian also has hostages.

He is indeed a monk now, but he also has descendants. He was over 40 when he became a monk. Of course, he already had descendants. These people are also hostages in Zhu Yuanzhang’s hands now. Zhu Yuanzhang’s meaning to him is the same as to others. Same.

Just let him die in Huining.

With Yao Guangxiao's mind, of course, he quickly sorted out the context of this matter.

He was relieved.

Otherwise, he is really terrified!
What kind of person is this? He almost beheaded the Ming Emperor back then, but even if it was Zhu Yuanzhang's will, it would be very troublesome for him to mix with Zhang Dingbian. After all, King Yan is behind him.I have to say that this bastard Yang Feng doesn't talk about martial arts, and he made a sneak attack on an old monk, which almost scared him out of a heart attack, and put him in an embarrassing situation.

But this is the end of the matter, and he can't get away.

Can only be stained with this trouble.

"Master went far to the Absolute Territory, educated the barbarians, and made the Buddha shine on the sea of ​​whales. Please be worshiped by the poor monk!"

He saluted quickly.

Zhang Dingbian ignored him and just smiled.

Yao Guangxiao straightened up immediately, but he was still very cautious. After all, he was just a demon monk with a bit of rebellious ideals, and the one in front of him could be called a master of the rebellious world.

Like a poisonous bug crawling in the dark.

Then look up at the giant beast overhead.

Bloodline suppression!

"Let's go!"

Yang Feng said with satisfaction.

This effect is very good, and Zhu Di may not be able to sleep well afterwards.

Zhang Dingbian!

A hero in troubled times!
His cronies got together with Zhang Dingbian?
Combined with his current situation, and the cronies who were Ling Chi before...

Naier Buhua and Alu Timur had already been killed in the capital. At the same time, Lingchi also had dozens of accomplices. They were Zhu Di's cronies, especially Alu Timur, who was the guard commander.Although it was charged with defection, this kind of treatment can still be said to be a blow to Zhu Di, and then combined with the rumors of moving the vassal.

He is very disturbed!
He was so uneasy that he got close to people like Zhang Dingbian.

Think carefully!

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang certainly doesn't care.

But the problem is that other people will, people from Zhu Yunxie's family will, what will Chang Sheng and Lan Yu think when the news spreads?Everyone knows that Zhang Dingbian is very powerful. He is so powerful that none of the generals of the Ming army can confidently defeat him on the battlefield.

is he older?
Feng Sheng, which one is different, Fu Youde?
Sapphire is younger.

But even his brother-in-law didn't dare to say that he could defeat Zhang Dingbian!

If such a person is really attracted by Zhu Di, he becomes Zhu Di's help...

After Zhu Yunxi succeeded to the throne, what if Zhu Di rebelled with his assistance?
Then there is fun to watch.

As a happy person of Ming Dynasty, Ambassador Yang is more and more fond of doing this kind of disaster.

Then he boarded the ferry across the river.

Zhang Dingbian boarded the boat immediately, and Yao Guangxiao was like a younger brother who waited on the boss. He waited for the old man to board the boat with a smile on his face.Then their itinerary is very simple, that is, go all the way north along the canal, pass through Yangzhou to Huai'an, and cross the Yellow River in Huai'an to Yizhou.

They are the guards of Jinyiwei, and they have to go to the post station along the way. The post road from the capital to Dengzhou takes the line of Huai'an, Yizhou, and Laizhou.

Although it is closer to the coast.

But at this time, the coastal areas belong to the backcountry with inconvenient transportation.

Even Haizhou to Andongwei is mainly by sea.

Yizhou Station.

"Should I go and visit my sworn brother?"

Satisfied with food and drink, Ambassador Yang was sitting in the yard, picking his teeth and looking around in confusion.

His gaze traveled across the high mountains to the west.

There is someone he misses waiting for him...

And the road is actually very convenient.

From Yizhou to the west is the main road that leads directly to Qufu.

"If the ambassador misses you very much, you might as well go and visit him. It's not far from the left and right."

Yao Guangxiao said with a smile.

(Yan Shenggong: Don't try to harm me!)
Yang Feng's extortion of Yan Shenggong is of course not a secret to a person like him. In fact, the Qufu county magistrate immediately announced it. At this time, the Qufu county magistrate is hereditary from the Kong family. Of course, it is not easy for Yan Shenggong to complain about such things. However, the county magistrate, as a local parent official, still has the responsibility to make a statement.

But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't reply to them, and then they didn't dare to ask again...

The history of Lu Fan's chief also played it closely.

So Zhu Yuanzhang was quite curious about the secrets of the Kong family.

Encore?

His Majesty the Emperor really wanted to ask Yang Feng what he could do to control the Kong family. Everyone knows how to push the Kong family to such an extent. There must be a big secret to make the Kong family pay a huge sum of money, so you all should be honest. What a dumb loser!
Don't pick it up!
If you pick it up again, the dirt will come out.

At that time, His Majesty the Emperor would also be embarrassed.

Isn't it just a little gold and silver to avoid disasters if you lose money? As for insisting on entanglement?

Of course Yan Shenggong is sensible.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't reply to him, just told him to admit it!
So it's like it never happened.

But there are still quite a few people who know about it, so many people are curious during this period of time. After all, such an obvious thing, people are not curious but strange. There are also many people who suspect that there is something wrong with the Kong family in private. Yao Guangxiao is obviously also a fun person.

"go?"

Yang Feng said eagerly.

He doesn't need it, after all, he is not short of money now, and his monthly income is 10,000+ just by selling mirrors.

"Ambassador, the Yanshenggong Mansion sent someone to ask for an interview. It is said that they have been waiting for you for many days!"

At this time, Yicheng came in to salute and said.

"Uh?"

……

So Yang Feng was still unable to visit his sworn brother in the end, because his sworn brother sent someone to bring a thousand taels of silver to his door. His going to Dengzhou was public, and the emperor even made an order. All over the place, of course Yan Shenggong also has them.And he went to Dengzhou to go to Yizhou. In order to prevent him from going to Qufu to make a fuss, the sensible Yan Shenggong should send someone to wait in Yizhou city with money!

sensible!

It hurts to be sensible!
In other words, the psychological shadow left by the last time was so deep that Duke Yansheng was completely overwhelmed.

"How much secret do you know about the Kong family?"

Zhang Dingbian looked at the box of silver in front of him and was also amused.

This is all kneeling and begging.

How humble Yan Shenggong is in front of Yang Feng!
"I'm very particular about people. People have sent money, so I definitely can't tell it."

Yang Feng said.

While speaking, he also picked up the ingot of silver and bit it like others did.

"Is there a problem with their family lineage?"

Zhang Ding said with a smile.

"Master, don't say that, don't hurt Yan Shenggong's dignity by such a pretentious thing."

Yao Guangxiao also said with a smile.

He's all caught up in the wind...

Yang Feng didn't say anything!
So the two old foxes immediately guessed.

Of course, even if they guessed Yang Feng, they wouldn't betray their friends. It's hard to find a sensible friend like Yan Shenggong. Besides, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't recognize this kind of thing, it's meaningless, and Zhu Yuanzhang obviously won't recognize it.He chose Bei Kong as Yan Shenggong not because of the tablet of Confucius, but because he was wooing Confucian scholars in the north, just like his violent handling of the Nanbei list case later, it was just for balance, so that the north could truly return to one family.

As for the blood of the Confucian family, it's none of the emperor's business.

Even if they were greened, it would be a disgrace to their ancestors, not His Majesty the Emperor. What the Emperor wants is to have such a thing, as long as he has it, nothing else is important.

Lineage doesn't matter.

The important thing is to have the value offered.

So the greatest value of this matter is not to expose it when it is not exposed, but it makes Yan Shenggong afraid of being exposed. After all, Yan Shenggong does not know whether he will face Zhu Yuanzhang's murder of the whole family after being exposed. His Majesty the Emperor is terrifying, so you can use Yan Shenggong as a daily cash machine.

"In this case, let's not go, so as not to delay the trip, my sworn brother is really a brother, let's go see him when we come back next year!"

Yang Feng looked at the white money in front of him, and said contentedly.

"Ha, you are quite the face of the old man back then."

Zhang Ding said with a smile.

So he still wants to blackmail Yan Shenggong.

They set off and continued northward, crossing the Yishui River and entering the lofty mountains...
