Chapter 301 Longmen Escort Agency, a body inlaid with gold and jade (please vote for me)

During the Zhengtong period of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen took charge of the government without permission and gave random orders, which resulted in a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Tumubao. Countless civil and military officials accompanying him died in the battle. Fortunately, Yu Qian of the Ministry of War came forward to turn the tide.

Zhu Qizhen was released after he fell into Oala. He almost never did the right thing in this life. After his death, he also left a lot of mess for future emperors.

The most important problem is that after the Battle of Tumubao, there was a serious imbalance between civil and military affairs. Several attempts to support military attaches and nobles failed.

The succeeding Emperor Chenghua, Zhu Jianshen, finally had no choice but to release the evil dog of eunuchs, vigorously support the favored eunuchs, and let the emperor's servants check and balance the ministers of the court, while the emperor balanced the two sides and sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.

From then on, the situation in the court of the Ming Dynasty gradually became chaotic, especially when the emperor later felt that Dongchang and Jinyiwei were not obedient, and established the West Factory, which pushed this chaos to a new level.

The eunuchs in the DPRK were in power, and the Dongxichang and Jinyiwei Snakes and Rats were wreaking havoc on their power. Outside, there were remnants of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and overseas Japanese pirates, and chaos loomed for a while.

The world began to have signs of chaos, especially the increasingly arrogant factory health organizations. Their power gradually spread to all parts of the country, and they became less obedient. They began to unite the party and eliminate dissidents, and purged some civil servants in the court. This made People are panicking.

The death of Yang Yuxuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, is an example of the struggle. On the surface, it seems that Dongchang murdered Zhongliang, but in fact there is a lot of inside story, involving complex political struggles. Officials at the level of Six Bu Shangshu could never be killed without the emperor's permission.

The underlying problem is that the position of Minister of the Ministry of War is too sensitive.

Since Yu Qian commanded the world's troops as the Minister of War, he set a precedent for civilian officials to intervene in military affairs. Since then, the Ministers of the Ministry of War have followed suit and gradually allowed civilian influence to penetrate into the army. Naturally, this kind of thing is something that the emperor does not want. seen.

Around the military power, the emperor and civilian officials competed for power. The death of Yang Yuxuan and the plot of "New Dragon Inn" that follows on the surface are about the martial arts knights rescuing Zhongliang, but in fact they are also the story of the fight between civil servants and Dongchang.

The protagonist of this story, Zhou Huaian, has never been a Jianghu person. He is the number one general under Yang Yuxuan. He holds an important position in the army and is the instructor of the Forbidden Army.

It's just that the situation in the court changed instantly. His boss Yang Yuxuan died, but he himself valued love and righteousness. He couldn't bear that Yang Yuxuan's family was driven out and killed, so he joined the world and became a free knight.

Of course, there are some driving forces behind this. Cao Shaoqin is preparing to lure the snake out of its hole, using Yang Yuxuan's descendants to lure out the remaining gang members, and then wipe out more "chaotic gangs".

There are also civil servants involved in Yang Yuxuan who are using his death to make a fuss and are looking for opportunities to reverse the case.

All parties were making moves, and Xu Xin naturally made arrangements, but it was with Zhang Min.

Cao Shaoqin was bound to die when he left Beijing this time, because Xu Xin wanted him to die. This eunuch acted too arrogantly. Many times when Xu Xin went out, he would always see his car hurting people, which made him unhappy for a long time.

What's more, he is also planning to start cultivating power in the court. If he doesn't get rid of some of the old guys, how will he make room for his people.

In addition, he was also planning to ask Cao Shaoqin and other eunuchs some things. If they involved some secret information, he would naturally kill people to silence them. With so many reasons, Xu Xin naturally had to let Cao Shaoqin die.

……

Thirteen-year-old Xu Xin was traveling alone for the first time, so he naturally prepared his things early. In addition to some luggage, he also brought a document that could prove his status as a scholar.

That's right, during the years that Xu Xin was in the capital, he took the time to upgrade himself to a higher level and was admitted as a scholar. With further fame, it was much more convenient to go out without the need for a guide or anything.

Xu Xin went west from the capital, and after a long journey, he arrived in the windy and sandy northwest.

……

"Dingling bells..." There was a clear sound of camel bells. Xu Xin sat firmly on the front camel, followed by another camel. This one carried a large water bag and several satchels on its back. , filled with food.

Surrounding him was a vast sea of ​​sand, with the edge beyond his sight.

Today it is already tilting to the west, the north wind is howling, and it is a desolate scene.

"The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun is setting in the long river."

Xu Xin admired the sunset in the distance, accelerated the camel's drive, and arrived outside an inn before dark.

Longmen Inn is located in Longmen Pass. The owner of the inn is named Jin Xiangyu. She is a bold and coquettish woman. The reason why she opened an inn in this desert is because it is close to Heishui City, the capital of the Great White Kingdom.

It is said that when the Mongols invaded the Great White Kingdom, the defenders of Blackwater City sealed all the gold and treasures in the city and died for the country.

Later, Blackwater City was covered by wind and sand overnight, and the treasures were buried under it along with the withered bones.

Later, there was a legend that every sixty years, a black sandstorm would blow up in the desert, blowing the desert open, revealing the city buried underneath. At that time, you can enter Blackwater City and take out the treasures inside.

Although there are some people in the world who regard money as garbage, there are more people who are willing to risk their lives for wealth.

Greed is human nature.

Xu Xin arrived at the Longmen Inn before dark. The inn was actually not big, with only two floors, and the building was not very beautiful. Compared to the big inns in the capital, they were as shabby as a cattle shed.

But in this vast desert, having a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and having hot meals to enjoy is already like a paradise.

Of course, if you want to enjoy a good meal at this Longmen Inn, you have to be careful to avoid being slaughtered as a fat sheep.

Yes, this "zai" means literally.

Longmen Inn is a black shop. Some black shops in ancient times sometimes not only killed people, but also dismembered people and made them into meat, which was called... white meat.

"On August [-]th, the temple door opens, and all kinds of candles are put out. Red candles are red, white candles are white. Little sister, I can't hold them..."

When Xu Xin's camel came to the dragon gate, he heard crisp singing from the top of the second floor. He looked up and saw that although it was a beautiful body, it was a bit irritating to the eyes.

The singer at the inn was naturally Jin Xiangyu, the proprietress of the Longmen Inn. She went to test the family's background, but her skills were inferior and she was stripped naked and thrown outside.

The proprietress of the Longmen Inn was probably used to being dissolute. Instead of rushing back to the inn room to put on clothes, she simply sang slang songs on the roof.

When Xu Xin arrived, he saw a naked girl singing upstairs. The scene... not to mention the high definition was so eye-catching that he couldn't help but laugh, thinking he was at some kind of stripper scene.
