Chapter 127 Li Jingye Comes

Historian!

Lin Mei also shrank in Mr. Cai's arms. After the clouds and rains, she was full of laziness and satisfaction. However, Mr. Cai never made peace with her soul, which made her feel a little disappointed.

After all, when the soul has peace, there will be no secrets between them, and we must not do it if we are the closest Taoist couple.

He sighed secretly, and Lin Mei asked, "What are you going to do with those brothers Jin'er? Let them continue to make trouble?"

Mr. Cai said calmly: "I can't turn the world around, what are you afraid of?"

Lin Mei said dissatisfiedly: "But they can't make a fuss, it's not good for Jin'er's reputation."

Mr. Cai smiled: "What good reputation can a salt merchant have? I believe you know that the Shi family is rich in Yangzhou. After Shi Wenlong died, he stared at him for countless pairs of eyes. If he didn't make a fuss, he was afraid that someone would be unable to help but attack Jin'er.

Let’s make a fuss, everyone is watching the fun. By next year, the dust has been settled, and Jin’er’s status will be stable.”

"What exactly will happen next year?"

Lin Mei couldn't help asking.

Mr. Cai said lightly: "Next year, there will be rebellion in Yangzhou. Although I don't know the reason, I will definitely count the secrets of heaven. The old gods of the Laoshan School also view it like this."

"Rebellion?"

Lin Mei sat up in shock, completely forgot that the quilt had slipped down. He frowned and thought for a moment, and then said, "Senior brother often said that there were major changes in the year, but the emperor had ascended the throne. The empress was honored as the empress dowager and raised in the Xianju Hall. She did not interfere with the government affairs. The court was calm and the Tang Dynasty was in a prosperous era. How could there be a rebellion?"

Mr. Cai pondered: "Since the empress came to power, the monks have been promoted, and the Taoist sect will not be willing to settle down. When Princess Gaoyang had an affair with Bian Ji, it was originally a tact of the Taoist sect. Unexpectedly, the late emperor ordered Changsun Wuji to remove King Li Ke of Wu and a series of royal families. These people were all chess pieces of the Taoist sect. Later, Wu Cairen became the queen, and Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang were eliminated..."

"Senior brother, wait!"

Lin Mei interrupted: "Isn't it beneficial to the monks to be eliminated by King Li Ke of Wu? Since the queen is devoted to the monks, why should she get rid of Changsun Wuji?"

Mr. Cai smiled coldly: "From the court and the court officials, the appeals of the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism are different. Don't look at the Li family's sect, but the most ruthless attack on the Taoism is the Li family. How can the imperial power be allowed to be interfered with by the heretics? I dare to conclude that if the empress dowager obtains great power, it will definitely attack the monks in turn. The two sects of Buddhism and Taoism are also guarded against this. The relationship between the imperial power and the Buddhist path is a relationship that is both exploited and attacked. Changsun Wuji was executed, but he simply supported Queen Wang. How could the Empress Wu tolerate him?"

"oh!"

Lin Mei nodded.

Mr. Cai said again: "After King Li Ke of Wu died, the monks were revived, and the Taoist sect completely gave up on the late emperor, so he continued to select suitable dragon seeds from the royal family, and thus King Langya and King Yue entered the Taoist sect's eyes.

In history, when a military rebellion begins, someone must have money, otherwise it will be a bandit and will not become a weapon. The Taoist sect has suffered losses from Taiping Dao and Tianshi Dao, and will not repeat the same mistakes, so it is arranged from both manpower and money and grain.

First of all, the two kings have been deeply involved in the Cao Gang for twenty years. With the order, hundreds of thousands of Cao Gang can be used.

In terms of money, it should be a salt merchant in Yangzhou. Shi Wenlong was able to make a fortune at the beginning, which was not unrelated to this. In fact, by heart, the property of the Shi family was the wealth of the two kings and the wealth of the Taoist sect.

Haha, it's gone far.

You ask me what big changes will happen and what will happen. Now I can't say that the celestial phenomena are just a vague sign, all pointing to the disaster of war next year. If Shi Wenlong was not dead, the Shi family would have to help him with his wealth. I also like to see this. If he succeeded, he would have to follow the dragon and lose it. If he was defeated, Shi Wenlong would be punished. But now his family is in charge, so I have to be careful."

Yes, if it involves rebellion or rebellion in a peaceful and prosperous era, who can be calmly regarded?

Lin Mei was silent for a while before she found that the quilt had slipped down. She hurriedly took out a piece of clothes and put them on her shoulders, and said, "Senior Brother, are you considering the result?"

Mr. Cai's eyes were gloomy and said lightly: "Be prepared for both hands. The people of King Langya and King Yue have arrived. Let's deal with them first. It is impossible to give them silver. There is no way to find out how much money there is in the account book. If you want it, find Zhang Jianzhi to ask for it, but you can first give some food and weapons through secret channels, and at the same time, you can watch the wind. Whoever has a strong momentum will depend on whoever is."

"Um!"

Lin Mei nodded and said, "Senior brother is really a mature idea."

...

Time flies, and before I realize it, it is already early spring in February. Xiao Ye has been here for a whole year.

During this period, the dispute between the Shi family continued to fight, and Xiao Ye and Qiao Niang made peace every ten days, rapidly improving their cultivation. Qiao Niang survived the first disaster not long ago. With Xiao Ye's support, there would naturally be no trouble. There was a hint of thunder in her true energy, and her spirit increased day by day with study.

The true essence in Xiao Ye's dantian is not only like lead and mercury, but also as dense as slurry.

If you regard overcoming the two tribulations as foundation building and then as three stages before, middle and last, Xiao Ye has been in the middle and middle stages.

The higher the quality of the true essence, the slower the speed of practice. Just like Su Yue'er, who practiced since childhood and worked hard for ten years, only a mere three kalpas. This is not because her qualifications are not good, but because spiritual energy enters the body, and it requires continuous transfer of lead and mercury, tempering and polishing, harmonizing yin and yang, removing waste and retaining essence. This is the time to grind water, and there is no shortcut to go.

Although the internal and external characters of the Chinese martial arts can replace the transfer of lead and mercury, and the chanting and reading can shake the true essence. Even standing in a stance will condense into ceilings and fall in pieces, Xiao Ye is a casual cultivator. Without the support of the mountain gate, there is no rich spiritual energy provided by the blessed land. He only breathes in the scattered spiritual energy that is free from the world, and still feels that his practice speed is as slow as a snail.

However, making peace with Qiao Niang's soul greatly improved his cultivation speed and made up for the regret of lacking the blessings of the world.

Another month ago, Xiao Ye received another royalty, only 1,500 taels, which was the last one, because there were a large number of pirated Western Chambers on the market, and some people were reluctant to buy pirated copies, so they borrowed books and copied them by themselves!

On this day, a terrifying news suddenly came. The emperor said in the court, "Why should I be the world and Wei Xuanzhen?" and I cherish the evil spirits of the service?

The empress dowager was furious and deposed the emperor as King of Luling, and appointed the second son Li Dan as the emperor. She was appointed as the dynasty, changed the dynasty title to Wenming, and made Li Dan’s official concubine Liu the queen, and her eldest son Li Chengqi as the crown prince.

The violent political turmoil made people feel uneasy, and Zhang Jianzhi had no time to pay attention to the Shijia. When Xiao Ye heard the news, he immediately found Zhang Jian.

"Why is my brother-in-law here?"

After getting engaged, Zhang Jian did not treat Xiao Ye as an outsider and directly called him his brother-in-law.

"Second brother-in-law, let me talk!"

Xiao Ye pulled Zhang Jian to a secluded place and asked, "Does my second brother have trustworthy people? You need absolute trust and a strict manner."

"How many!"

Zhang Jian nodded.

Xiao Ye said: "You ask them to open a tea shop on the official road that comes to Yangzhou east. Once someone named Li Jingye passes by, I will report it to me quickly."

"Who is Li Jingye? Is Xiao Lang's enemy?"

Zhang Jian was puzzled.

Xiao Ye said with a serious expression: "Second brother-in-law, don't ask so much. In short, do as I said, and you must not go on a business trip."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now!"

Zhang Jian did not ask about the reason, and hurried away. He quickly arranged personnel to open a tea shop on the official road outside Yangzhou City.

A month later, Zhang Jian heard from news that a few men came down from the post car and chatted while drinking tea. One of them was Li Jingye.

"Second brother-in-law, do you trust me?"

Xiao Yesurong asked.

"Believe, believe naturally!"

Zhang Jian said without hesitation.

Xiao Ye said: "There will be a big event in Yangzhou. The Zhang family's industrial staff outside the city should be withdrawn to Jiankang as soon as possible. It is best if my uncle, aunt and cousin sister-in-law will also go there."

"What happened?"

Zhang Jian asked.

Xiao Ye waved his hand and said, "I can't say it now. You will know in a few days. I have to go to the Lu Mansion to notify Lu Wen. Hurry up!"

"Okay, then I'll go see my father!"
