Chapter 316: Weird and strange (Part 2)

While thinking, Li Jinglong's low voice sounded on the roadside: "Mr. Lu, your farewell is like a strong army. Haha, but I don't know what the purpose of Lord Lu sending such a group of elite soldiers to the West?" With his voice, Li Jinglong, wearing a purple robe and a gold belt, followed by more than a dozen guards, walked out without caring about the surprised gazes of the people on the roadside.

Lu Feng looked at Li Jinglong, who was covered in jewels and aroused jewel, and smiled in his heart: "Do you think you can save your future by learning from Han Xizai?" He mobilized all the skin on his face and squeezed out a cold smile: "Ah, it's Lord Li, why, do you have any objections to my trip to the envoy group?"

Li Jinglong said with a smile: "How dare Mr. Li have an objection? But he saw that Lord Lu's way of seeing off was very different from others, so he was a little curious. The envoys from other vassal states left Beijing, were sent by officials of the Ministry of Rites for thirty miles away, using all the royal majesty. However, seeing Lord Lu's actions today was indeed an eye-opener. It was not like my farewell to the guests of the state in the Ming Dynasty, but it was a bit like the former heroic journey to bid farewell to the suicide squad."

A strong murderous aura suddenly rolled up on Lu Feng's body, and the strong murderous intent spread more than ten feet away. The subtle airflow rolled up the dust on the ground, forming extremely tiny tornados near his body. He laughed in a deep voice: "Hehehe, Lord Li laughed. I just told those brothers that the journey to the West is unstable, so they must be careful and take good care of the safety of the incompetent envoys. Alas, along the way, the Yuanmeng Party, the desert bandits, and the Hu people and horse thieves in Persia, aren't a fatal product? It's not impossible to say it's a suicide squad."

Li Jinglong nodded, looked like he suddenly realized, and bowed and smiled, "It turns out that Lord Lu is touched by this, but Mr. Li misunderstood." He couldn't bear to eat Lu Feng's powerful pressure, and took a few steps back without leaving traces, barely retreating from the place where Lu Feng's murderous intent was the most powerful, and forced a smile: "Li is free and comes to see how these Western envoys left. Unexpectedly, he happened to meet Lord Lu. There is a restaurant here, and the seafood inside is awesome. I wonder if Lord Lu can freely let Li be a small host?"

Lu Feng looked at Li Jinglong deeply and suddenly sighed: "Mr. Li, if you want to surrender to me, then put away your self-esteem. What I, Lu Feng, want is a terrible person, not a partner of cooperation... Sorry, Your Majesty wants this official to come to the palace to reply, so, please don't accompany me." After bowing, Lu Feng looked at Li Jinglong deeply and coldly again, then nodded and left quickly.

Li Jinglong's big face was so angry that it seemed to have pig blood. It was not ugly. He said in a low voice: "Good you, Lu Feng, I, Li Jinglong, have shown good deeds over and over again. Do you really think you are the emperor's favorite minister, so you must be sure that Li will be able to succeed? Humph, looking at your arrogant appearance, you are not a good candidate, so I might as well agree to that person... At least he has something to ask for me, and the future benefits may be more than following you Lu Feng."

After a while of silence, Li Jinglong turned around and left, as if he had made up some decisions.

After seeing Edward and the others off, the court also became quiet for a moment. Zhu Yu was scolded by Zhu Di, the Jinyiwei and the West Factory spies gathered around him because of Murong Tian's escape. Their strength was greatly damaged and he had no intention of competing with Zhu Xi for a while. The two princes stopped causing trouble. The court suddenly became calm, so calm that the ministers were a little bored. Every day, just look at the military situation reports from the south. The southern army was unstoppable and had wiped out many Yuan and Mongolian troops along the way, which was easy.

Lu Feng used his excuse that his injuries had not healed, and he still hid in the large yard outside the city for a whole day to raise fish and grow flowers, and he raised more than 200 fat and large black soil dogs. Shui Yuanzi seemed to be addicted to the south and did not return to Yingtian, so the headquarters of the Jinyiwei suddenly lost five leaders of disaster, and it became even quieter. Every day, Lu Feng played with the poisonous spider in Danpiao Astronomy, and silently obtained several high-public prey. Under the secret coercion and inducement, Lu Feng, who had mastered the evidence of some ministers' scandals, easily got their allegiance. In addition to the Four Abram Defense Forces of the Governor's Office of the Five Cities and more than 10,000 troops and horses that broke the camp outside the city, Lu Feng quietly controlled the forces of the two battalions of imperial guards, the two departments of the Ministry of Justice, the Third Department of War, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Rites, and the Dali Temple.

With the addition of a group of Beijing officials collected by Monk Daoyan, they quietly controlled nearly 30% of the officials in the court within three months. Lu Feng said in front of Monk Daoyan: "If there weren't a few celestial masters from Longhu Mountain in the court as worshippers, I would use the ecstasy secret method you taught last time to deal with Xie Jin and his group of great scholars, and then swallow the six ministers of the court. Who wouldn't the officials in the court listen to us? Oh, wouldn't we be the second emperor at that time?"

Monk Daoyan also made an intention to plan for a night with Lu Feng, but he still couldn't think of a way to deal with those imperial courts, openly or secretly practicing Taoism, so he could only give up this plan helplessly. Monk Daoyan sighed: "Your idea is good, but those worships are not something we can provoke now. It will move our whole body with one move. The potential power of the Central Plains Taoist Sect is extremely powerful, so don't provoke it."

In the blink of an eye, it touched the edge of autumn, and the endless autumn rain spilled down sparsely, and the dancing crowds on the Qinhuai River became even more prosperous. The peaceful and prosperous era is a good time to find joy.

Sitting cross-legged on the big willow tree by the river, Lu Feng was holding a rough willow flute in his mouth, and he was blowing happily. Lu An was whispering behind him: "Mr. Li Zhu wrote that he had cleared all the martial arts gangs near Suzhou and Hangzhou. With the help of the Chief Gu Cangyue, the black and white lines were all under the control of the Golden Dragon Gang. The local local officials were also the people who were installed by our Jinyiwei, and it was much more convenient to start a business."

"The profits last year were pretty good, but because I had to keep the capital to expand my business, I never gave the money to send money. In the first half of this year, I made a lot of money by reselling private salt, tea, horses, etc., so Mr. Li Zhu brought a silver note of 5 million taels, saying that he would let you deal with it first. When it was the Chinese New Year, there was still a sum of money to send."

"Some of these money was earned by themselves, some were destroyed by local martial arts gangs, rich merchants and wealthy families swallowed them, and some were filial to the neighboring Wulin Hall. Several martial arts gang leaders in Jiangnan sent their confidants to Mr. Lizhu's side and asked for a good background. It depends on what your master said. Mr. Lizhu said, "I'll give them a few officials from a hundred households and send them to their hometown to pretend to be a tiger's power, so that they can repay their favor."

Lu Feng nodded, spurted the willow flute three meters away in one breath, watching it slowly drift down the flowing water. "Okay, let's do it according to Azhu's wishes. Since people have given benefits to seek official positions, we will make it beautiful, just give them a null title of Thousand Households. But we can't always do it in our Jinyiwei, so as not to impeach us by the Censor. Let's talk to Lord Ru, and see how many smart people choose to choose a false position in the department, so that it can be easier to deal with the beginning and end."

Lu An nodded, and saw that Lu Feng had nothing to say, he immediately walked away lightly. He had just walked a dozen steps, and Lin Shi had already run over quickly, his body was like a slight silhouette of wind, rubbing the tip of the grass and then came behind Lu Feng. He said hurriedly: "Master, people coming to the inside said that several envoys from Fusang Kingdom in the east were coming to offer tribute to His Majesty, and said that they were asking us and one of their kings to start business."

After a pause, Lin Shi said strangely: "However, the disciple secretly glanced at the envoys. Two of them seemed to be possessed by ghosts, with black eyebrows. Master Monk Daoyan also said this, so please don't pretend to be sick, it's better to go to the court to take a look... Master Daoyan also said that if he is in business with Fusang, if he is well managed, the profit will not be small. Instead of being cheaper for others, we should take it ourselves."

Lu Feng frowned and said in confusion: "Strange, how much oil can the small country in Fusang have? What's more, last time..."

Speaking of "last time", Lin Shi, Lu An's face suddenly became strange. He was a famous mountain, but it was cut into half by the Xuanyuan Sword sword, and then it was blown up by Shui Yuanzi. I don't know how many people died or injured. This matter... Fortunately, the Fusang people didn't know that the incident was caused by them. I guess they thought it was a natural disaster, so I didn't have to feel guilty.
