Chapter 277 The Will (Part 2)
Chapter 277: Order (Part 2)
February 1st, the first year of Hongwu, Dacheng Dynasty
Chen Henian got off at the gate of the imperial city early in the morning, walked into the imperial city, sat in the deserted waiting room, waiting for the emperor to summon him.
After a moment, an eunuch came inside. It was said that Chen Henian went to the emperor's study in the Secret Palace to see him. Chen Henian hurriedly walked through the small door and walked to the Secret Palace.
At this time, there was a slight smoke rising from the copper furnace in the hall, and a strange fragrance wafted in the hall. Two rows of guards stood solemnly outside the hall. Chen Henian walked into the hall, entered the study room, and bowed again.
Chen Henian held the important position of the Thirteenth Division, but this was the first decree given to the Thirteenth Division after the emperor ascended the throne, so he knelt on the ground and dared not say anything.
After a while, Wang Hongyi didn't say anything and looked Chen Henian up and down.
This man is about thirty years old, with fair skin, calm and firm.
Wang Hongyi said: "When monks plan a great rebellion, they must understand the rules and regulations. You have worked hard and set up a formation thousands of miles away. My loyalty and diligence are commendable. I feel so comforted."
Chen Henian felt a fever in his heart, and he bowed and said, "This is the duty of the minister, how dare the emperor praise him?"
Wang Hongyi said: "Those who have merits praise, those who have mistakes criticize them, and you don't need to refuse... I have given you this decree, so don't let me down."
Speaking of this, Wang Hongyi asked the eunuch to take out an imperial edict and give it to Chen Henian.
Chen Henian kowtowed and thanked him, received the order, raised his head, looked at the emperor with bright eyes, and said, "I will not let down the emperor's entrustedness and kill all these traitors!"
Wang Hongyi nodded: "I believe in you, please step back!"
Chen Henian responded: "Yes!"
Holding the imperial edict, he retreated and when he got outside the door, the man strode out.
Chen Henian's Thousand Houses House was not far from the Imperial City, and it was set up at an official gate outside the Imperial City. At this time, the gate was closed, and the Hundred Houses and the General Banner stood in a neat manner, each carrying a sword.
The Baihu and the General Banner both had a premonition that something would happen. In the silence of the hall, Chen Henian personally held the imperial edict, and the two soldiers behind him followed him with their swords and entered the hall.
Seeing that the hall, which was already quiet, became solemn and strict when he saw Chen Henian’s case was decided, the hundreds of households and the general flag knelt down together!
Chen Henian put the imperial edict on the case, swept the hall, and said, "The emperor has given a clear edict to kill the rebels. I received the edict and acted, involving the dispatch of seven provinces, and had the right to take action first and then report."
As soon as this sentence came out, even if I prayed, there was still a commotion in the lobby, but in a blink of an eye, it became quiet.
"Get up, Lord Liu, tell me about the deployment."
The people in the inner hall stood up, but they were still silent. They saw Deputy Qianhu Liu stepping out, glanced at him, and said with a cold expression: "On December 27, 18th year of Chuizheng, after the Dharma Assembly, an evil monk planned a great rebellion and cast a magic spell to assassinate the emperor. This is a great rebellion and the crime of killing the nine clans."
"After investigation and deployment, the Fanyuan Sect has thirty-one temples, the Dajue Sect has thirty-seven temples, and the Jifa Sect has thirty-one temples. These temples are distributed in various provinces and are difficult to remove at the same time. According to the order of the Lord, the subordinate officials have sent documents to the thirteen departments of each province, and they are connected by two levels of pigeons and messengers, so they must be caught in one place."
After saying that, Deputy Qianhu Liu gave Chen Henian a bow and took a step back.
Chen Henian sneered: "The Fan Sect is extremely cunning, good at making nets, and is well-known for entering the net. He has also been investigated many times. According to investigations, the fall of You and Liang Zhucheng are all the insiders. Now they dare to plot against the Dark Emperor!"
Speaking of this, he gritted his teeth and his muscles on his face kept jumping: "These thieves think that this dynasty dare not take action? It would be better to jump out this time, just kill them!"
Chen Henian slowly looked around everyone and raised his voice: "I am now an imperial envoy. There are thirteen departments and thousands of households in each province. If anyone dares to disobey, he will be killed without hesitation."
"All provinces, counties and counties must cooperate and can adjust the army of 500 people. If anyone below the fifth rank of officials dares to delay disobey orders, he will take action first and then report!"
"How can you intimidate the world if you don't kill!"
After hearing this, everyone saluted and said loudly: "Kill, kill all the rebels and don't leave any rebellious one!"
Chen Henian was very satisfied and sniffed: "Everyone obeyed the order!"
Everyone in the hall knelt down immediately.
Chen Henian drank: "Immediately, the flying pigeons pass a letter, the messenger quickly rides, and sends a notice. The temples on the list collude with the Hu people, and the crime is extremely serious. Immediately, Immediately raise an army to encircle and suppress it."
"Send supervisory envoys in various provinces in advance to closely supervise the situation of the extermination. If anyone with unpredictable people dare to leak the news, they will immediately kill them!"
"The provinces have confirmed the news. Seven days later, on the morning of February 8, the provinces will work together to send troops to encircle and suppress them. According to the emperor's order, all the land, property, temples and forests will be killed according to the emperor's orders, and all the land, property, temples and forests will be confiscated!"
"I said again that there must be rules for the action. Take advantage of the situation and rob people of the people. Those who rob and rob their wealth will be killed. At the same time, if there are people in the people who are hiding rebellious, they will be killed. Do not let one person escape!"
The households in the hall responded in unison: "Abide by the orders of the Lord!"
That evening, the second floor of the Chenxiang Building, a private room
The name of Chenxiang Building is very elegant. In fact, it is an ordinary hotel. The so-called private room has very ordinary decorations. The walls are covered with wallpaper and are changed once a month. There are a few lamps and candles hanging on the walls around it.
This medium-class restaurant is not 3,000 or 800 in Jinling, but there are many customers, fresh ingredients and relatively low prices. Many well-off families and scholars like to come here.
Pingzhen and Tongxuan came first. The charcoal stove in the pot was boiling the water in the pot, and a tea fragrance overflowed, filling the entire room.
Ping Zhen took a sip and asked, "Is it really going to do it?"
"Yeah!" Tong Xuan simply responded.
"I don't want the emperor to take action, and he will be decisive and decisive." Ping Zhen knew that Tongxuan had many methods, so she didn't ask in detail, but just said with emotion.
"I've already considered some concerns. In the past few dynasties, I killed more and kept blood on my face."
"But the emperor's methods are even more ruthless. In the past, he destroyed Fan and killed more, but he often revived within a few decades. It was even more powerful than before. Now the Han Fan's plan has been cut off." Ping Zhen said with emotion: "It makes people feel heartbroken. Why is the gap between this person and human being so big?"
The two sat on a table next to the window. Tong Xuan looked at it from afar, but said with a smile: "I won't say much, look, the guests are all here."
It was not false to see at all, and a group of people came from afar.
Ma Yuan, congratulatory letters, and Zhang Huan were all among them.
"Senior brother, this congratulatory letter from Ma Yuanhe has officially issued an edict to be a court lecturer, but the other people have good fate?"
"Well, Zhang Huan said before that people who have the possibility of the prime minister, the others are the people I have seen nearby. Junior brother, although my appearance and look-a-honored spirit are not said to be a hit, but seven out of ten of these people can have official positions. This is a good fate."
Seeing that Pingzhen said something, Tong Xuan waved his hand: "Don't say it, I know the right way. I just made a good relationship with them when I was poor and humble, and would not give people the suspicion of forming cliques and making private interests."
After hearing this, Pingma smiled and said, "I'm relieved."
By the way, although the invitation was secretly influenced by Tongxuan, it was not them who came forward. Zhang Ren'an, a middle-aged scholar with some reputation in the local area, so he decided to go to the private banquet.
After a moment, a group of people came up and a large group of people gathered on the second floor.
As soon as he came up, Zhang Ren'an bowed to introduce it. Everyone is a fame, the youngest is a scholar, the older one is a juren, or an official body, and they all respect each other.
"These two are Taoist priests who are cursing the ban, and they are the seventh grade." It was said that they were the two officials the most. Everyone greeted each other, but others were fine. The Congratulatory letter was focused on Confucianism and did not believe in this. They looked at them coldly. Seeing these two Taoist priests, about thirty years old, star-crowned and feathered clothes, they had a bit of immortality. The feeling of disgust was slightly reduced, but they still tightened their faces and refused to say more.
Pingzhen Tongxuan smiled and said, "I just came here to see all the talents."
Zhang Ren'an smiled and said, "Since that's the case, please sit down."
As he said that, he ordered the banquet to go and the waiter came and went, putting the plates neatly, and the dishes were all exquisite. After taking the seat, he started serving wine and dishes. At this time, the congratulatory letter saw that the two Taoists used dishes were no different from ordinary people, so he asked coldly: "Why are the two immortals who do not avoid being polite?"
Ping Zhen had already felt this inexplicable hostility. After hearing this, she smiled and said, "Sir, you are not good at studying!"
The congratulatory letter was just feeling disgusted, but after hearing this, he was furious and said coldly: "You said I am not good at studying, but I really want to ask for advice."
The atmosphere suddenly became cold.
Ping Zhen clamped a chicken leg and said with a smile: "Everyone, if you want to say this, you have to talk about history. I, Dao Zun, established scriptures and education for 1,200 years. Dao Zun has established 68 precepts. None of them has ever banned meat and fish. Lord He may have not read this?"
Tongxuan also smiled: "Actually, there is no such thing in the Buddhist Sect. The Buddhist ancestor established a precept and said that he would not be allowed to commit suicide in person, but he could not help but cleanse his flesh. This precept came from the monarch of Yan."
"Although the monarch of Yan Kingdom was called emperor, his separatist rule was only one-fifth of the world. Naturally, he was not a real dragon. He had shallow knowledge and regarded the Fan Sect as the national religion. He built tens of thousands of temples and raised 300,000 monks. He ate meat alone and exhausted the national treasury. This person had no choice but to develop a vegetarian theory."
"Hey, there was a vegetarian demon in ancient times, so he competed with the Brahma ancestors for the throne. According to the Brahma Sutra, he was sent to hell. This person imitated vegetarianism, and he was the Brahma outsider who took his own life!"
"So, as the founding king, he starved to death on the pavilion, and it has not been passed down for a generation. The shortness of this country's destiny has never existed since ancient times."
"Not only that, I pray that there are Taizu, who is a great country, named Mauryan King. Although the land is not as good as that of this dynasty, it is more than half of it, and its population is almost the same as that of the Celestial Empire. It was originally a powerful country, but the whole country believed in the Brahma Sect, which was also a collapse of the country's destiny."
"Mr. He is a Confucian scholar, and it is also a justification for not reading books from heretics. However, he should not be confused by the Brahma Sect, nor by the Brahma Sect's vegetarian demons."
After the two of them finished speaking, they laughed to the sky. When everyone present heard this, they looked at each other in horror.
