Immortality begins with Xiaoao

Chapter 71 End
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, when practicing the deep prajna paramita for a long time, sees that the five aggregates are all empty, and overcomes all hardships. Shariputra, the form is not different from emptiness, and emptiness is not different from form"

Fang Yuan was nailed to the ground by Yu Fei, and saw the old monk clasped his hands, sitting cross-legged, reciting the Heart Sutra, with blood gushing out from his mouth, only a few words were barely audible.

Yu Fei shook his head and said softly:

"Thousands of people died because of you. If you can go to the Western Paradise just by reciting scriptures, then this Buddha is also an evil Buddha."

After finishing speaking, Yu Fei pulled out the long lance, the lance had already been stained dark red with blood.

Arriving downstairs in Yanyang, Yu Fei looked at the corpses all over the floor and the captives kneeling on the floor, shook his head, and strode upstairs.

Many dignitaries and wealthy merchants on the second floor have been controlled by the soldiers of the Yingyang Army. When Yu Fei came upstairs, everyone had already knelt down in a circle.

Yu Fei picked up a chair and sat among the crowd, and said with a smile:

"Let's talk about it, everyone."

Cao Lan was trembling all over, her head was almost stuck in her crotch, Qian Ning sighed, her face full of remorse, the rest of the people were either calm or terrified. After hearing Yu Fei's words, they all fell to the ground and shouted:
"Sir, forgive me."

Yu Fei shook his head and said:
"That's not what I want to hear."

Mr. Gu, since Yu Fei came in, has always been the calmest one among the crowd. After hearing Yu Fei's words, he bowed and asked:

"I don't know what the adults want to hear, but the little old man will know everything."

Yu Fei looked at him, smiled and asked:

"Patriarch Gu, Gu Tan?"

Gu Tan bowed again.

"It's the little old man, with a mere name, who has polluted the ears of adults."

Yu Fei nodded and said lightly:
"Tell me, who else is in your party?"

Although Gu Tan had known for a long time that Yu Fei wanted to catch them all, but after he really heard it, his heart still trembled and he said tremblingly:
"It's not a pity for the little old man to die. It's just that the family is young and innocent. Please forgive me."

Yu Fei smiled, looked at the old man and said:
"Do you still dare to raise conditions with me?"

Gu Tan lay on the ground, tremblingly said:

"The little old man didn't dare, he just asked the adults."

After finishing speaking, he lay on the ground and did not move.

After a while, Yu Fei said calmly:
"Forget it, I'm not a bloodthirsty person, as long as you tell the truth, it's not impossible for me to leave an incense for the Gu family."

Hearing what Yu Fei said, Gu Tan immediately kowtowed three times.

"Thank you for your kindness, my lord."

At the side, Qian Ning and other officials were also shocked after hearing this, and quickly kowtowed:
"My lord, the lower official also wants to say that the one who conspired with the lower official is Mrs. Zhang."

"My lord knows it too"

Several people quickly started to expose, Yu Fei waved his hand and shouted:

"Okay, since you all have something to say to me, let's go back to the government office and talk slowly."

"Take them all away and hand them all over to Yang Chen."

"obey"

As soon as everyone was taken down by the soldiers of the Yingyang Army, a small banner officer of the Jinyiwei trotted up the stairs. After seeing Yu Fei, he saluted before reporting:

"My lord, the remnants of the rebels have been captured."

When Yu Fei was still curious about how he could be so fast, the officer Xiaoqi whispered again.

"It was Wei Guogong's hand."

Yu Fei understood, nodded and smiled slightly:

"This old man is very cunning."

It's okay for Yu Fei to make a few jokes, but the little flag officer didn't dare to answer those words indiscriminately, and stood aside respectfully.

Back at the government office, just as Yu Fei took off his armor, Xu Yu came down to the government office with the support of several maids.

Listening to the flattering words of Duke Wei, Yu Fei just drank his tea and listened quietly without saying a word.

Seeing Yu Fei's reluctance, Xu Wu sighed in his heart, cupped his hands and said:
"I'm really old. If Master Yu hadn't been talented in both civil and military affairs, I'm afraid the city of Nanjing would have been taken by these thieves. The consequences would be really unpredictable. After much deliberation, the old man decided to resign from His Majesty's defense position." Responsibility, take care of your life with peace of mind.”

Yu Fei smiled, put down the teacup and said:
"Well, what the Duke said is very true. It is rare for the Duke to be so sensible. His Majesty must be very happy."

After a pause, Yu Fei continued:
"I heard that Xu Peng, the grandson of the Duke, is both civil and military. He is almost thirty now?"

Hearing the string song, he knows the elegant meaning, Yu Fei is just a little bit, Xu Chu immediately understands, sighs in his heart, but smiles on his face:

"Well, Pengju is not bad, the old man is just going to play His Majesty, let this child inherit the Duke."

Yu Fei nodded, and said, "The old man is sensible."

Speaking of this, the two of them didn't have much to talk about. After drinking a few sips of tea, Xu Yu got up to leave, but Yu Fei didn't keep him, and sent him out of the government office himself.

In the following month, based on the confessions of Gu Tan, Qian Ning and others, Yu Fei arrested people in the south of the Yangtze River. Those who have passed through a kalpa are all frightened and shouted for the protection of the Bodhisattva.

In the end, the entire Jiangnan officialdom, up to the six ministers and down to the magistrate of a county, were all plowed by Yu Fei. Those rich and wealthy businessmen were even more miserable.

In the end, together with the officials, 140 people were beheaded, and tens of thousands were distributed.

And the proceeds from the house raids are even more staggering. There are more than [-] million taels of gold and silver alone, not to mention a lot of valuable jewels and jade, and shop land deeds. sum of taxes.

Yu Fei asked Yang Xu to take the [-] soldiers and horses borrowed from Xu Yu and the [-] Eagle Yang Army to escort all the gold, silver and jewels back to Beijing, while he himself was Jiangnan to take care of the mess.

Those copied houses and shops will be auctioned off, and the land will have to be redistributed. Yu Fei was busy in Jiangnan until May before he was able to deal with these matters. And the re-appointed officials from the capital arrived in Nanjing one after another. The rest is left to subsequent officials to take care of.

While dealing with these matters, Yu Fei also met an acquaintance, who was almost beheaded as an accomplice in the conspiracy.

It was Yu Fei who was more careful, and had to go through the information of each beheaded person himself, otherwise Tang Jieyuan, the head of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River, would die in a daze.

When Yu Fei saw Tang Bohu again, he had lost the vigor and vigor of the past. Tang Bohu, who was only a few years older than Yu Fei, already had graying on his temples, and he looked sloppy, just like a poor old scholar.

Thinking of the high-spirited Tang Bohu back then, Yu Fei couldn't help feeling extremely sorry, and after thinking about it, he temporarily let him be his master under his command.

Tang Bohu didn't refuse either, for him now, wherever he went, he was just making a living.

On May [-]th, Yu Fei and his subordinates set off for South Shaolin, intending to settle accounts with these bald donkeys.

When Yu Fei brought his subordinates to Mount Qingyuan in Putian, the entire South Shaolin seemed dilapidated, even the gate was missing.

After entering the temple, there are only dozens of monks living in the entire Southern Shaolin Temple, all of whom are ordinary people without martial arts. The new director is an old monk who is close to seventy.

After some questioning, Yu Fei learned from his mouth that the monks in Southern Shaolin had run away more than a month ago, and all the money in the temple had been swept away, leaving only these dozens of old monks who could not run away , still looking at this dilapidated mountain gate.

After knowing the situation, Yu Fei didn't make things difficult for these people, but just took the land deed of Southern Shaolin and handed it over to the Fujian government, then went to Songshan Mountain.

After running to South Shaolin, Yu Fei didn't believe that he could run to North Shaolin again.
