Chu Huan said "Oh", but he was a little surprised. When Lei Guheng was transferred to the southeast, Chu Huan once thought that Lei Guheng might be able to stabilize the situation in the southeast. Heng is a famous general of the empire who has experienced many battles, and Lei Guheng took away the elite guards of the empire.

It's just that he didn't expect that the fighting power of Tianmen Dao is so powerful, and a group of mobs make it extremely difficult for the famous generals of the empire.

"Up and down the Jinling Dao, they are already timid without a fight." Du Fugong's eyes flickered with sarcasm, "As long as a soldier from the Tianmen Dao really enters Jinling Dao, Jinling Dao may surrender without a fight."

Chu Huan just smiled and didn't speak. He didn't think that the officers and soldiers of Jinling Dao would surrender without a fight, but he believed in one thing. Lei Guheng, when soldiers and horses entered Jinling, the officials in Jinling were already timid, and I'm afraid they really won't be the opponents of Tianmendao by then.

Chu Huan knows that throughout the ages, religion has been used to confuse the people and cause chaos in the world. Even mobs often bring great harm to the court. [

The Taiping Dao Rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty he knew, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom of Hong Xiuquan later, and the White Lotus Sect in the late Qing Dynasty, if they did not give the court a great shock, although most of them eventually lost, but the former Zhu Yuanzhang used the power of religion to seize After leaving the country, Chu Huan didn't know what the Tianmen Dao would grow into. Although the empire's foreign aggression to Xiliang was temporarily considered, the internal aggression within the empire was enough to deal a fatal blow to the Great Qin Empire.

He also knows that being able to gather a group of mobs, not only was not quickly pacified by Lei Guheng, but he was in a stalemate with Lei Guheng, and he was not at a disadvantage at all. Simple, this force, which is regarded as a mob, actually seems to let a group of people who don't know the world risk their lives because of their beliefs, but its organization is very strict. After the death of General Mu, he knew that Tianmen Dao was a serious enemy of the imperial court. He didn't know how the emperor positioned Tianmen Dao.

It’s just that they really regard them as a group of mobs, like those thieves who were put down several times before, or they really regard them as powerful enemies. If it’s the latter, Chu Huan believes that even if the emperor doesn’t care about other things, he will never care about his own country. If you don't care, a set of countermeasures should be formulated to deal with the northward march of Tianmen disciples.

But if the emperor really just regarded the Taoists of Tianmen as a gang of gangsters, Chu Huan was very worried that the emperor had no way to deal with it.

"Tianmen Dao disciples did not really enter Jinling Dao, only because Lei Guheng guarded Jianghuai. With Lei Guheng's ability, as long as the imperial court supports him, even if he can't put down Tianmen Dao's chaos, he can still strangle Jianghuai and make Tianmen Dao It’s not really possible to march into Jinling.” Du Fugong said slowly: “It’s just that if Lei Guheng makes a mistake...My lord, do you think there is still someone who can stop the Tianmen Dao from going north?”

Chu Huan frowned, pondered for a while, and finally said in a low voice: "Mr. Du, do you mean that there is still a possibility for Taoists from Tianmen to enter the capital?"

Du Fugong said with a faint smile: "Why is there no such possibility? Luo'an capital is not without fall. Luo'an capital has three rivers, Qinshui, Gushui and Raoshui, which claim to pass through the capital, with strong mountains in the west, beautiful clouds in the east, and The mountains and rivers seem to be as stable as Mount Tai, but they are actually not suitable for an imperial capital. When you enter Jinling and go to Luo'an, it is almost dangerous to defend. However, the capital is surrounded by mountains and rivers, like a tiger trapped in a cage. If it is really an army Pressure...!" He didn't say much, he just picked up the soy milk and took another sip.

Hearing Du Fugong's words, Chu Huan seemed to be full of great truth, and asked, "Sir, what you mean is that once Lei Guheng can't defend Jianghuai, the soldiers and horses of Tianmen Dao may drive straight in and kill the capital." ?”

"Several dynasties chose Luo'an as the capital because the climate here is pleasant and suitable for living, and Jinling Yuling has always been a prosperous place." Du Fu stroked his beard and said: "It is located in the south, far away from the bitter cold in the north. Moreover, being in the hinterland of the Central Plains, there is no need to worry about the enemy from the north approaching the capital. The three kingdoms competed for supremacy, and Eastern Wu eventually ruled the world. Luo'an is located in Wudi, which is the heart of Wu State. It is reasonable for Wu Guoli to be like this. It’s just that the Hua Dynasty and the Qin State established their capitals here one after another, perhaps because they both felt that this is where the great unification is located.” After a pause, he continued: “But the south is mostly a plain, and it’s difficult to deal with the enemies from the north. There are also natural dangers in Fenshui and Hongguan, but if the enemy comes from the south, then there is no real natural danger to defend."

Chu Huan nodded slightly, and sighed: "It seems that Luo'an's safety is in the hands of General Lei."

"That's right." Duke Fu nodded and said, "If Lei Guheng is safe, the capital may be protected. If something happens to Lei Guheng, the capital will be in jeopardy. Lord Chu, Lei Guheng is old. As far as I know, old injuries He was entangled, he went to the southeast, and he was going into battle with injuries, if he calmed down for a short time, it would be fine, but if the long-term consumption, Lei Guheng's energy and physical strength, can he sustain it?"

Chu Huan felt that there was something in Du Fu's words, and immediately said: "Mr. Du, do you see something?"

"No, no." Du Fugong waved his hands and smiled: "It's just nonsense. My lord asked me if it was suitable for me to set up a store in Kyoto at this time, and Du uttered some nonsense for a while. Don't be offended, my lord. If you want to set up another store, everything is still up to you." Let the grown-ups decide."

Chu Huan sighed and said, "Since that's the case, it's good to manage the two stores well."

Du Fugong got up, cupped his hands and said, "Du will look for Shen Wansi today and ask him to hire a treasurer."

"Okay." Chu Huan also got up, "Mr. Laudu is in charge."

Duke Fu bowed his hands and left, walked to the gate, suddenly thought of something, turned around, frowned and asked, "My lord, is that painting very important to you?"

"Painting?" Chu Huan was startled, unable to react for a while.

"A picture of a peacock opening its screen!" [

"Oh?" Chu Huan remembered that when he bought Du Fugong back then, he saw a picture of a peacock painted by Du Fugong on the wall of the Resurrection Hall, which was exactly the same as the picture of a blessed peacock seen in Xiliang, and he was very surprised at that time , I went to find Du Fugong to ask what happened, but it was a pity that Du Fugong kept silent, and instead proposed a condition that Chu Huan would help kill An Guogong and Lang Wuxu before he would inform.

Chu Huan had a lot of things on his mind, if Du Fugong hadn't mentioned this matter at this moment, he would have almost forgotten it.

Seeing Du Fugong's question, Chu Huan hurriedly said, "Is it important or not? Actually, I don't know. It's just that I want to prove something, so I really want to know its origin!"

Du Fu thought for a while, walked back, and said softly: "I know nothing about this picture, except its source."

"Oh?"

"Rebirth Church Hulls knows that I am good at painting, so he bought me in the past just to use me to paint for him." Du Fugong pondered for a while, and finally said: "My paintings should be sold if they are thrown in the market. To pay some money, so Hulse several times sought me out to his counting room and asked me to paint for him."

Chu Huan sighed: "Mr. Du is an elegant person. He reads books and paints for the sake of self-cultivation and pleasure. Hulls' body is stinky, and if he wants to desecrate his elegance, he will never give in."

Du Fugong smiled lightly, but there was a hint of relief in his eyes. He is a scholar, and he is still arrogant and arrogant in his bones. Others don't understand him, but Chu Huan's words made Du Fugong feel very happy and feel like a bosom friend. It's just that he has a high self-cultivation, he doesn't like to show his face, and said with a smile: "I remember one time, he threatened me again and again in the tent, and even took out a knife, saying that Du was a lowly person, already a slave, and he would kill me even if he killed me." Regardless, that means that if you don't paint for him, you will kill me."

Chu Huan laughed and said, "It's a good thing that Hulls didn't do this, otherwise there would be such a handy accountant in my house."

Du Fugong said again: "It happened that someone was looking for him on that day. He went out to talk. I saw a landscape painting in his room. In fact, I went to his room many times and saw that picture many times. It was from The famous artist's handwriting is quite interesting, so I went up to look at it, and saw a painting that was extremely vivid, so I reached out and stroked it... But I never expected that when I touched it, the picture suddenly moved, Only then did I realize that it was a picture frame that fit the wall very well, after pressing it, the picture frame turned into the wall, revealing the other side."

Chu Huan understood something, and his eyes lit up: "Sir, on the other side, is it... is it the peacock picture?"

Du Fu nodded and said: "That's right, the picture frame has two sides. The picture of the landscape is usually shown to people, but on the back of the picture frame, it is a picture of a peacock spreading its tail. That picture of a peacock spreading its tail is really wonderful." Hao Dian, the first-class painting, the posture of the peacock, is vividly painted. Du has seen countless paintings, and there are not a few top-notch ones. Among them, that picture is the most exquisite and lifelike that Du has ever seen in his life, it is so lifelike, it seems to fly out of the painting."

Chu Huan clenched his fists and said solemnly: "Sir, you mean, the picture of the peacock opening its screen is in the Hall of Rebirth?"

Du Fugong nodded and said: "That's right, it's in Hurs' account room. It's his forbidden area. Without his permission, no one can get close to it. The peacock picture, Hurs thinks it's a treasure, must be very precious to him." It's important, otherwise...he wouldn't have collected it so carefully, if it wasn't for the coincidence that day, no one would know that there is such a peacock picture in his account room."

Chu Huan cupped his hands, and said solemnly: "Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Chu is very grateful!"

Du Fugong didn't say much, just turned around and left. Chu Huan looked at Du Fugong's leaving back, but his heart was full of doubts. Hules was just a businessman. How could he have such a picture of a peacock? The thing worshiped by Daxinzong A Shiduo and others, could it be that this Hu merchant is also involved in Daxinzong?
