Chapter 130 The real sky in the north!
The wind in the north is strong and blowing.
Beiping.
The gate of the Ming Dynasty.
The most elite border troops of the Ming Dynasty are stationed here.
Deep in the camp, there were bursts of sounds of martial arts training.
A burly and powerful man, full of strength like a leopard, and with sharp eyes like an eagle. All kinds of extraordinary things indicate that this man is unusual. As the man grows in his hands, Swinging the knife up and down, the Wild Goose Wing Knife drew beautiful arcs in the air.
Click!
A dull chopping sound fell, and the surrounding area became calm.
The man threw the wild goose wing knife in his hand on the ground, and the sharp long knife penetrated deeply into the soil. When he turned around, there was a cold wind blowing from the cotton robe.
Bang bang bang!
A crisp sound of applause came from the camp.
A man with a thin face and sharp eyes, always wearing a black monk's robe, strode over: "Your Highness's sword skills are even better than before."
Zhu Di smiled proudly. , "It's just a daily warm-up. The so-called sword skills will have no effect at all if placed among thousands of troops. They are usually used to strengthen the body and perform some warm-up tricks."
< br>Zhu Di pulled up the Wild Goose Wing Saber from the ground.
The blade is somewhat blackened.
It is not a new knife, but the blade is extremely sharp and bright.
This is Zhu Di's sword.
This sword is not a precious sword, it is just an ordinary sword standard in the Ming Dynasty army. However, this was the first time he went to the battlefield that year. General Chang Yuchun gave it to him. It was also given to him when he fought in these years. Witnesses who drank the enemy's head.
Zhu Di handed the knife to the attendant on the side.
After adjusting his soaked collar, he walked side by side with the black-robed monk in the camp.
Zhu Di is in front, and Black Monk is in the back.
The guards only dared to follow from a distance and did not dare to get too close.
“Hasn’t there been any news from Beijing yet?” Zhu Di’s steps did not stop, but his breath had calmed down.
Yao Guangxiao smiled and said: "I'm back."
"Oh?" Zhu Di paused, his face uncertain, but quickly returned to normal, and said calmly: "How did the court reply?"
Yao Guang Xiaodao: "I agreed."
"Seriously?" Zhu Di's face was filled with joy and some disbelief: "Can my eldest brother agree to open an iron mine in Shuntian Mansion?"
Yao Guangxiao nodded, shook his head and said: "Prince His Highness did agree to open Zunhua Tieye, but it will not fall into the hands of His Highness."
Zhu Di smiled, looked up at the sky, and said proudly: "I am King Yan, the king of the Yanyun old land of the Han family. .”
"I have the final say on everything here."
"As long as Shuntian Mansion can open mines, no matter who is in charge of Shuntian Mansion, it must be in my hands."
"I am the one who controls Shuntian Mansion." The King of Tianfu!"
Yao Guangxiao shook his head and said: "I may disappoint His Highness. The imperial court did agree to the mining of Shuntian Mansion, but the mine will not fall into the hands of His Majesty. The imperial court has arranged for someone to take over. This man is said to be on his way here.”
“Your Highness must have heard of this man’s name.”
"Who?" Zhu Di looked at Yao Guangxiao suspiciously, and then said nonchalantly: "No matter who this person is, the mine is in Shuntian Mansion, and it belongs to me, Zhu Di."
"I don't agree, no one can take it. Let's go."
"Except for your Majesty, of course."
Listening to Zhu Di's domineering and cowardly appearance, Yao Guangxiao also laughed and said: "This time. I’m afraid it won’t work.”
“The person coming is Xia Zhibai!”
"Xia Zhibai?" Zhu Di frowned. He was not very familiar with this name. He only felt that it was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard of it before.
Yao Guangxiao said: "This year's number one pick."
"Is it him?" Zhu Di had a look of surprise in his eyes.
He has remembered.
Beiping is some distance from Kyoto.
The transmission of news is not that convenient. He has heard about what happened in Yingtian Mansion.
He has never been interested in the affairs of scholars.
If this Xia Zhibai hadn't gone too far, forcing his father to be furious many times, but still surviving every time, this would have left some impression on Zhu Di, but only barely. impression.
His eyes are not on Nanjing.
Further north!
"What is he doing in Peiping?" Zhu Di asked.
Yao Guangxiao smiled: "Of course he is here to mine, this person is not simple."
"Really? Since you know something about Xia Zhibai, then you should treat me well Tell me, why is this person so extraordinary? Let me open my eyes and see how extraordinary the new top scholar is, whether he has more heads and two more hands than ordinary people." Zhu Di smiled scornfully, with a cold gaze. with deep contempt.
Yao Guang Xiao said: "I don't know much about this person."
"I have stayed in Kyoto and know your Majesty's temper. In the past, anyone who angered Your Majesty, regardless of the Regardless of the fault, almost everyone was killed, especially after the queen died of illness. Even the Crown Prince couldn't protect whoever provoked him, but he was able to escape time and time again."
"If it happened once, maybe Your Majesty had a kind heart."
"But two, three, or even more times, it means that this person does have something good."
Zhu Di nodded.
He agrees with this.
If his father was really angry, even he would feel palpitations.
Yao Guangxiao said solemnly: "This man is the number one scholar, but he doesn't want to be an official. Instead, he deprives himself of his status and goes into business."
"In just three months, he monopolized the Yingtianfu Salt Market."
"It's well-known among the people."
"Let's talk about the key points." Zhu Di was a little impatient.
What bothers him most is that these literati talk about a lot of things that are not there. They talk for a long time, but they are all insignificant.
It makes people just want to doze off.
Yao Guangxiao nodded, he suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: "He is very similar to me, but better than me."
Zhu Di turned back suddenly, his eyes suddenly changed: "Yao Guangxiao, what did you say?" Yao Guangxiao clasped his hands together and said, "What I want is to display my ambitions and live up to what I have learned in my life."
"His Royal Highness also has great ambitions. , that’s why I approached His Highness. I don’t care about money or power. I just wasted half my life and was left out in the cold. Now that I am over fifty, I just want to apply what I have learned.”
"What I learned is 'dragon slaying'!"
Zhu Di sneered, with a flash of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
What is a dragon?
The emperor.
Slaying the dragon means regicide.
Of course, it is absolutely impossible to kill the current His Majesty.
This is what Yao Guangxiao said to him at that time: 'The flying dragon is in the sky, the prince died suddenly, and the country was overturned by your majesty. ’
He also said that if he could take him to the domain, he would give himself a white hat.
He is the feudal king.
If the king adds Bai, isn’t that the emperor? !
When Zhu Di heard these words from Yao Guangxiao, he was almost stunned.
At that time, Prince Zhu Biao's position was stable, and no one in the court doubted it. Yao Guangxiao's words were so outrageous, but Zhu Di was shaken in the end because he still had expectations in his heart, and the reason why he dared to have this expectation , is the sentence "The flying dragon is in the sky, the prince died suddenly".
"Yao Guangxiao, don't be too presumptuous." Zhu Di said coldly: "If you want to die, don't hurt me!"
"How can I be willing to do so before I can fulfill my ambitions?" So dead." Yao Guangxiao laughed and said: "It's just that this Xia Zhibai is indeed extraordinary. His ambition is greater than mine. My ambition is just to change my fate against the sky, but his is to 'change the world'."
"Change the world?" Zhu Di didn't understand.
Yao Guangxiao nodded and said: "Yes, it is to change the world."
"I sent someone to inquire privately. The ambition shown by this person is to abolish the 'shi'. This person is very smart and knows how to advance and retreat. , and is well aware of the situation in the court, so he does not go into the court at all. He just wants to work quietly in the local area? "Zhu Di sneered and said, "What can you do in the local area? , can it be worth an edict from the imperial court?"
Yao Guangxiao shook his head: "This is his cleverness."
"He has been following the situation of the imperial court and rebelling against the imperial court. The church’s affairs.”
"It makes the court uncomfortable, but it can barely be tolerated."
Zhu Di frowned, looked at Yao Guangxiao suspiciously, and asked: "What do you mean by this? How can you be both obedient and rebellious?"
< br>Yao Guang Xiao said: "Now your Majesty is killing people."
Zhu Di's face darkened.
Yao Guangxiao really doesn’t like to open any pot.
Could he not know this?
The first person killed was Li Yu, the envoy to Chengxuan in Beiping.
He spent a lot of effort to win over Li Yu. As a result, under his father's conviction, most of the officials in Peiping were slaughtered. He was so frightened that he quickly wrote a letter to prove his innocence, lest His Majesty In anger, he also chopped himself off.
He knows his father.
If you really take action, you will be completely disowned.
He really dared to kill him.
In those days, he couldn't sleep well all night, and he always felt like someone was sharpening a knife next to him.
The officials in Peking were all killed, and His Majesty only issued an edict to scold him, and he finally calmed down.
Yao Guang Xiaodao said: "Although the officials your Majesty killed were all corrupt officials and they were all people who deserved to be killed, the officials of the six ministries, as well as many officials from the direct and provincial governments, one by one, basically all He is a scholar."
"To some extent."
"Your Majesty actually pawned Xia Zhibai's sword once."
"I'm clearing the obstacles for him."
Zhu Di was stunned.
Yao Guangxiao squinted his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Before His Majesty did not use the butcher's knife, Xia Zhibai did not do much. But after His Majesty did so, Xia Zhibai first monopolized the market at an alarming speed. Tianfu Salt Market has now reached out to the entire north, and also reached out to the iron mines."
"Your Majesty, think about it. If His Majesty didn't take action, would Xia Zhibai dare to reach out? ”
"Can he stretch it out?"
"What do you mean, Xia Zhibai is plotting against His Majesty?" Zhu Di's eyes were uncertain.
Yao Guangxiao quickly shook his head and said: "This is unlikely."
"If he really dared to plot against His Majesty, I'm afraid that His Majesty would chop off his head as soon as he had this idea. How could he have done it? Let him live until now."
"Xia Zhibai is taking advantage of the situation."
"Using His Majesty's power to cleanse the world, he can accomplish what he wants to do."
"Seek the skin of a tiger!!!"
"I don't have the guts, and I don't dare."
“But this Xia Zhibai dared, and he really did it.”
“Such a person who always walks on the edge of the knife has now come to Peiping.” Yao Guangxiao looked at it with a half-smile. Looking at Zhu Di, he said: "Your Highness wants to take advantage of the iron ore from his hands. I'm afraid it won't be easy."
Zhu Di snorted coldly and said: "You literati know how to engage in conspiracy and calculation."
"I will not play tricks with him."
"When he comes to Peking, he must first pass through the military camp. It’s off!”
Zhu Di suddenly stopped.
He raised his eyes and looked up.
We have reached the depths of the military camp.
It was a battle flag that could not be seen to the end, an iron armored square formation that could not be seen at a glance.
This is the invincible Ming Dynasty warrior in today's world.
It is also the real sky in the north!
Zhu Di got on his horse and took out the wild goose wing knife that had been inserted into the scabbard at an unknown time.
He raised his sword to the sky and said emotionally: "My sons, get in formation."
"Meet the enemy!!!"
Let's organize the follow-up of the plot, there should be two updates in the past two days
