Paper Maker: This is the end of the Ming Dynasty in Liaozhai

Chapter 150

Watching Ding Zimo leave, Su Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. Ding Zimo has practiced Beiming Divine Art, and Zhao Xiaoer, a virtuous housemate, has progressed very fast in the past three years. Although he has not yet reached the first-class state, but It's almost the same, and it won't take long to become his right-hand man.

This time he didn't exchange martial arts, he was ready to rebel. Naturally, he would not foolishly abide by Jin Yiwei's rules that martial arts should not be passed on to outsiders. , Just ask for it from Tang Xiangjin and the others.

It's pure stupidity to exchange it with the court now, and his two hundred or so great achievements are only enough to exchange for the materials needed to make the third natal paper figurine. If he misses this time, it will be difficult to obtain enough materials.

The materials for refining the natal paper figurines are hard to find. It took several generations of the Su family nearly 40 years to get them together. The materials he needs to refine the natal paper figurines now are better and harder to find. All the courts in the world can take it out at once, but no one can do it. If he finds it by himself, he will not be able to get it together in a short time.

At this time, Su Hao's eyes suddenly saw Tong Lian, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Sometimes it's just a moment when human beings are warm and cold. Originally, Tong Lian would come to him almost every day to discuss how to build Wei Zhongxian's ancestral hall, but now After news of Zhu Youxiao's serious illness reached here, Tong Lian disappeared.

.........

Beijing.

Time was like running water, and soon, more than a month passed, and the atmosphere in the entire court became awkward, because Zhu Youjian's attitude towards Wei Zhongxian was unpredictable.

Especially the officials of the Donglin Party, they all expected Zhu Youjian to set things right after he ascended the throne, but for a month, Zhu Youjian did not take any action or express his position, and everything was as usual.

The eunuch officials were a little relieved. What they were worried about was that Zhu Youjian would use the remaining prestige of his enthronement to cleanse the court. After all, the new official took office as the top three, and even an official knew that he wanted to stand up, let alone the emperor. One emperor and one courtier are not just talking.

However, Wei Zhongxian at this time was not as optimistic as other eunuch officials, because this month, Zhu Youjian transferred all his people from the Qianqing Palace and replaced them with people from the Xinwang Palace, who can now get close to the Qianqing Palace. Only himself.

What's more serious is that the eunuchs and maids in the palace also saw that he might lose power, and most of them drew a clear line with him. Now he has no chance even if he wants to put Zhu Youjian under house arrest.

"Wanwu, do you think that brat Zhu Youjian will really let us go?"

Ke Baba's old face was full of worry. After Zhu Youjian ascended the throne, her status in the palace plummeted. Although no one dared to show her face, the sense of alienation was extremely obvious, which made people who were used to being praised She was very disturbed.

"Should be, His Majesty told King Xin before his death."

Wei Zhongxian said in a deep voice, but his eyes were wandering while speaking, and he didn't know whether he was comforting Ke Baba or comforting himself.

Hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Ke Baba's complexion improved a little, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "Wanwu, if I ask Zhu Youjian to resign, it's useless for me to stay in the palace now."

The current imperial palace is just a prison for her, those maids are already alienating her, it is useless for her to continue to stay in the palace.

"Alright."

Hearing this, Wei Zhongxian nodded and said, "Just to see what Zhu Youjian's attitude is towards us."

Those who can get ahead in the palace have their own experience in trying to figure out the emperor's heart. Ke Baba's resignation is just to see what Zhu Youjian thinks of them.

...

The next day, Ke Baba's resignation was placed on Zhu Youjian's desk, and Zhu Youjian quickly approved Ke Baba's resignation.

As Ke Baba left the palace, at this moment, it seemed that the horn of "Down Wei" was blown in the court. The first person to attack was a speech officer named Yang Suoxiu, who impeached Cui Chengxiu for not observing filial piety.

For this impeachment, Chongzhen did not punish Cui Chengxiu, but reprimanded Yang Suoxiu, but he did not punish him. For a while, everyone became monk Zhang Er, confused.

After another half month of peace, Yunnan Taoist censor Yang Weiyuan impeached Cui Chengxiu again, but this time Zhu Youjian approved Yang Weiyuan's memorial, dismissed Cui Chengxiu, and kicked him home to stay.

As soon as Cui Chengxiu left, Wei Zhongxian was completely gone, Zhu Youjian's idea of ​​bringing down Wei Zhongxian was instantly known by everyone, and the tide of defeating Wei officially started.

A few days later, in Haiyan County, Zhejiang Province, a tribute student named Qian Jiazheng went to Chongzhen to impeach Wei Zhongxian for ten crimes.

...

Jinyiwei Yamen in Jinan Prefecture.

"Is it still here?"

Seeing the news from the capital, Su Hao looked calm. Three days ago, Wei Zhongxian asked Zhu Youjian to resign, and Zhu Youjian also agreed.

After thinking about it for a while, Su Hao took out a lifelike paper bird from his sleeve, and then began to chant the mantra. Finally, he blew lightly, the paper bird instantly became bigger, stepped on the paper bird, and the paper bird flapped its wings and flew towards the Fly north.

...

On the official road from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River, thirty or forty carriages moved slowly.

On the most luxurious carriage in the middle, Wei Zhongxian was showing his old appearance. In March, he had grown from over tens of thousands of people to being dispatched to Fengyang to guard the imperial mausoleum in embarrassment. See.

"Eunuch, Fucheng is ahead, do you want to rest here tonight?"

At this time, the servant driving the car asked.

"Then let's rest here."

Wei Zhongxian's feeble voice came from the carriage.

The sun was setting and the world was dark. The convoy entered Fucheng and settled down at Youshi Inn in the south of the city.

At this time, a fast horse hurriedly stopped in front of the inn, saw the servant guarding the door of the inn, and the visitor hurriedly said: "Eunuch Wei is here, there is an urgent message from the capital."

Hearing what the visitor said, the servant quickly brought him to Wei Zhongxian's room.

"What letter? Who sent it?"

Wei Zhongxian said calmly, his tone full of exhaustion.

"It was Li Yongzhen, Eunuch Li, who asked the little one to send it urgently."

The visitor took out the letter from his pocket and handed it to Wei Zhongxian.

"Is it Li Yongzhen?"

Wei Zhongxian took it casually, he didn't worry about whether the letter would be poisonous, and now a person like him with half a foot in the coffin is not worth other people's effort.

After opening the letter, Wei Zhongxian looked at it, but the next moment, Wei Zhongxian was struck by lightning in an instant, and he didn't even know the letter was out of his hand.

Is it still here?
Thinking about the contents of the letter, Wei Zhongxian felt sad, he had already been dispatched to Fengyang, but Zhu Youjian still refused to let him go, for a while, a wave of despair rose from the bottom of his heart, and took control of Dongchang and Jinyiwei After so long, he was very clear about the means of the two. Once he was brought back to the capital, it would be difficult for him to die. In an instant, the will to die sprouted.

After a long time, Wei Zhongxian came back to his senses, picked up the letter, and said calmly: "Invite Li Chaoqin over here, and let the inn prepare a table of good wine and food for you."

He was assigned to Fengyang, and the person who was assigned with him was Li Chaoqin, the eunuch of Bingbi, who also left the capital with him.

...

On the other side, Su Hao appeared outside the gate of Fucheng in casual clothes. After some inquiries, Su Hao walked towards You's Inn.

Walking to the entrance of the inn, he saw that the lobby was full of people. Su Hao's mana was activated, and the Huangliang Dream Art came out. After a while, Su Hao walked into the inn slowly. In the lobby, dozens of servants blocked the lobby It was very strict, but when Su Hao walked into the inn, everyone seemed to have not seen it, and still ate and drank on their own.

Walking up to the second floor, Su Hao stopped in front of a guest room. He heard Wei Zhongxian's voice in the room.

squeak!
The sound of the door opening startled Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin in the room. The two looked at the door at the same time, and saw Su Hao in casual clothes.

Seeing Su Hao's somewhat familiar face, Wei Zhongxian frowned. After thinking for a while, he finally remembered Su Hao's identity. He frowned and said, "Are you Su Hao from Jinyiwei Qianhu in Jinan Prefecture?"

Although he only met Su Hao once, he still has an impression of this capable subordinate. If Su Hao hadn't helped Xue Zhen get back the tax money that was robbed before, he would have grown up with great difficulty. Power has to be cut in half.

"The next official sees Eunuch Wei."

Seeing that Wei Zhongxian could recognize him, Su Hao also froze for a moment. Although he was called the number one vicious dog under Wei Eunuchs, in fact he only met Wei Zhongxian once. Wei Zhongxian might remember his name, but can he? Not necessarily what he looks like.

"How will you be here?"

Wei Zhongxian said calmly: "Sit down and eat together."

After sitting down, Su Hao said: "I want to go to Beijing for some activities this time. I heard that Eunuch Wei is here on the way, so I came here specially to see Eunuch."

"You have a heart."

Hearing Su Hao's words, Wei Zhongxian laughed. Since he was dispatched to Fengyang, other people have treated him like a snake and scorpion, and wished to draw a line with him immediately. Su Hao was the first to approach him.

Thinking of this, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but smiled wryly: "It's a pity that our family is no different from the God of Plague now, otherwise we can do activities for you."

"Thank you, father-in-law, for your kindness."

Su Hao said calmly: "A lower official is a person in the Jianghu. It is best to keep his official position. If he can't keep his position, it doesn't matter if he is a lower official. At worst, he will go back to the Jianghu. With the strength of a lower official, he can earn a living wherever he goes. "

Looking at Su Hao's youthful face, Wei Zhongxian showed envy. If he was a few years younger, he might have escaped too. Unfortunately, he is already sixty now, and after sixty years, even if he escaped for a few years It's a good life. It's better to die than to hide in Tibet.

The three of them chatted while eating and drinking, and most of the time it was Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin who were talking. Both of them recalled the past, both proud of their own power and hatred for Zhu Youjian.

Soon, the fourth watch arrived.

At this time, Wei Zhongxian suddenly said with drunken eyes, "Boy Su, let's finish this wine here, it's time for our family to go on the road."

"You two father-in-laws, I will give you a ride."

Su Hao said: "With the strength of the following officials, the two of you can go on the road with less pain."

"Then I will trouble you, Su boy."

Li Chaoqin smiled and said, although he has long had the will to die, he can suffer less, let's suffer less. After being a eunuch all his life, he has already suffered enough.

Wei Zhongxian also laughed, he never expected to make a friend before he died.

Seeing this, Su Hao waved his hand and shot out two shots of internal force, which directly hit the heads of the two. Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin froze at the same time, and then lost their breath instantly.

Looking at the corpses of Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin, Su Hao couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. He just wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian quietly, and then left quietly. He didn't expect to make friends with Wei Zhongxian.

Carrying the bodies of the two people, he jumped down from the window. Outside the window was the backyard of the inn, where all the carriages brought by Wei Zhongxian were placed.

The movement of Su Hao jumping down awakened several servants who were in charge of guarding the carriage. Seeing Su Hao carrying Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin, they opened their mouths and wanted to shout, but at this moment, Su Hao's eyes flashed, Huang Liang Yimeng activated, Several people shook their heads immediately, then walked aside and continued to sleep.

Seeing this, Su Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, Wei Zhongxian has lost his power now, and all the servants he brought with him were ordinary servants. Otherwise, it would not be so easy for his illusion to confuse so many people in an instant.

However, after looking at the thirty or forty carriages in the backyard, Su Hao frowned again. According to what Wei Zhongxian said while drinking, in addition to various antique collections, there are millions of taels of silver in these carriages. Now He was about to rebel, so naturally he couldn't leave the money here, otherwise it would become military pay for attacking him.

After thinking about it for a while, Su Hao took out an incense burner from the baggage behind him, and took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve. After pouring all the light yellow powder in the porcelain bottle into the incense burner, the powder was exactly what he had picked up from the old blind man. The secret medicine obtained there.

As Su Hao pinched the magic formula, a faint green smoke drifted into the inn. Immediately afterwards, all the servants in the lobby of the inn walked to the backyard, and skillfully untied the reins, and drove the carriage out of the backyard.

The formula in Su Hao's hands remains the same, he did not forcefully control these people, but implanted the illusion of dawn in these people's minds, they were brought to Fengyang by Wei Zhongxian, and it was time to set off when the dawn came.

Soon the carriage drove out of the inn, and on the street, a large group of carriages held torches, which was particularly conspicuous in the night.

Su Hao walked in the forefront, and the faint green smoke drifted in all directions. Everyone within the range surrounded by the green smoke ignored this convoy.

You's Inn is right next to the city wall in the south of the city. Not long after, the tall city wall of the county town appeared in front of it. Su Hao came under the city wall first and confused the soldiers guarding the city gate. After a while, the city gate opened and the convoy came out smoothly. After leaving the city, he walked along the official road in the dark.

After walking for several miles, Su Hao controlled the convoy to stop, then waved his hand, hundreds of armored paper figurines appeared. After checking, the paper figurines unloaded all the boxes containing gold and silver from the carriage. More than 40 boxes were ordered.

Afterwards, Su Hao controlled the paper people to move the box away from the side of the official road, and dug a hole every twenty feet. For the paper figurine's hard hands, it was not difficult to dig a hole. After a while, the big hole was dug. After burying the box, Su Hao camouflaged the ground and controlled the convoy again.

The convoy moved forward for several miles, Su Hao let the convoy move forward by itself, it would take at least half an hour for these ordinary people to get rid of his illusion, this time is enough for the convoy to go far enough.

Watching the convoy going away, Su Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. Unfortunately, he didn't have time to send the money back to Jinan Mansion by himself. It would take at least three or four days for the caravan to get to Jinan Mansion. He didn't have so much time to waste here, so he could only come later Excavated, as for those antiques, in troubled times, these things are just waste.

After thinking for a while, a paper bird appeared in Su Hao's hand. The next moment, the paper bird fluttered up. Su Hao took the bodies of Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin towards Jinan Mansion. Now that he had made friends, he had to Give them a decent burial.
