Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 503 Choice

The sea breeze at night is colder than during the day.

Moisture.

chill.

The kind of cold that penetrates into the cracks of a person's bones.

This is different from the cold in the north.

crackle~

The sound of burning firewood was endless, and the wind that came from time to time made the flames dance, and there were many sparks moving with the wind.

"Brother!! Why did I come to Fujian?"

Among the people sitting around the bonfire, someone frowned and said with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "We were transferred from Liaodong to the capital, and we have been staying at Fengtai Camp. Yes, we can train with you." , but what’s the result? The soldiers we trained so hard were not handed over to our command!!”

"It was Wei Zhongxian who summoned us to Beijing in the first place, and now he has followed Wei Zhongxian to Fujian. I really can't figure out what we can do in Fujian."

When this person was questioning him, the eyes of the other people sitting there were all staring at the same place.

Listening to the group of people around him asking questions, Zu Dashou felt his head grow heavy, his brows furrowed, he got up and walked towards the tent.

Seeing this, another person looked around and said in a low tone: "We took a boat across the sea from Shandong to Fujian. We were like trash, either vomiting or fainting. We are from Liao Dynasty!! I work for a certain person in the capital. I can still understand it, but when I come to Fujian, I can’t understand it. Do you want me to ride on a horse and ride on a ship?”

Otherwise it would never be like this.

It is even said that the emperor also knew it.

Since coming to Fujian, Zu Dashou has talked less and less. No one knows what he is thinking, but this is also the first time for Zu Dashou to get together with Zu Dale and the others.

"Brother-in-law, what exactly do you think?"

Under the light of the fire, Zu Dashou, who was sitting in armor, reached for a piece of firewood and threw it into the burning bonfire, but did not say anything.

This……

It is precisely because of this that Zu Dashou is particularly worried about the situation of the Zu family. After all, they are fine. If they are really forced, they may have a chance to escape, but the family in Liao is different.

There is no other reason.

"Brother, aren't you in a hurry?"

When he first came to the capital from Liaodong to take up a post, Zu Dashou was worried in his heart. He was afraid that some of the things his family did in private would be known to the imperial court.

"Young Master."

No one can understand Zu Dashou's mood.

The court must know something.

This time following Wei Zhongxian to Fujian confirmed Zu Dashou's suspicion.

"That's right, brother!"

After this person said this, the rest of the people couldn't sit still.

The most anxious person is none other than Zu Dashou.

Ever since they followed Wei Zhongxian to Fujian, a kind of anxiety has been growing in their hearts. The key is that when they came to Fuzhou Prefecture, they stayed in the camp all day like when they were in the capital. If they were in Liaodong, , they may not have such thoughts, but the key to the problem now is that they are not in Liaodong!

"Brother, please say something!"

Everyone who saw this scene was stunned.

I don't know how long it took, but someone walked into the camp.

"The people from the Warrior Camp are watching the stakes?"

Zu Dashou did not turn around and said in a low tone.

"Yes." Zu Kuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Although the people in the warrior camp may have been very vigilant, they are still a bunch of young men after all."

"It seems that Duke Wei is not at ease with me."

Zu Dashou raised his eyebrows slightly and turned around slowly: "It's just that the private contact is closer, so they can know so clearly."

"Young Master, what should we do next?"

Zu Kuan said with some worry: "From the time we left the capital, came all the way to Fujian, until we were stationed in Fuzhou Prefecture, we didn't even know what we were doing."

"Keep waiting."

Zu Dashou sighed softly, "Besides waiting, what else can we do now?"

"Is the eldest young master worried about his hometown?"

Zu Kuan thought of something and said with some uncertainty.

"I'm afraid that when we leave the capital, the descendants of the Zu family and the Wu family may be summoned to the capital."

Zu Dashou made a surprising statement: "Although I don't know exactly what Wei Zhongxian's order was, my intuition tells me that things are definitely not simple, otherwise it would never be like this."

"That's impossible."

Zu Kuan was shocked and said: "If this is really the case, could it be that the court knew about what we had done before? Could it be that Wei Zhongxian and the others want to kill us?"

"You think too highly of yourself."

Zu Dashou sneered and said: "Even if you really let the court know something, if you really want to kill us, why go to such trouble?"

"Even if we were not summoned to Beijing and all stayed in Liaodong, if the imperial court wanted to severely punish us, it would only be a matter of one sentence. There is no need to even alert Xiong Tingbi, it only needs to send a general to lead the army. .”

Zu Kuan was speechless for a moment.

indeed.

Perhaps the ancestral family does have considerable influence in Ningyuan and western Liaoning, but it is limited to these areas. If it really expands further, the ancestral family will be nothing.

"If your guess is correct, those people in Liaodong, especially those who work against Xiong Tingbi, will probably die." Zu Dashou narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Xiong Tingbi's eyes are too poisonous. He can see the root of Liaodong at a glance. In fact, some things have been doomed since the Li family was destroyed, but some people still hold on to luck in their hearts."

"It's just that they didn't think about it. Our court won a complete victory in the first battle of Liaozuo, which defeated the arrogance of Jianlu and even uprooted the hidden stakes of Jianlu's condemnation faction. This means that the court really wants to punish someone severely. That is extremely relaxing."

"Should I just stay like this for now?"

Zu Kuan asked with a frown.

"Just stay."

Zu Dashou said sadly: "I guess the situation has not yet reached a desperate situation. The reason why we were sent to Wei Zhongxian's command is because there is really something big to do."

"This may be the only way to survive."

"It's just that what I'm not sure about now is whether Wei Zhongxian wants to deal with the people in the southeastern provinces or go to sea. If it's the former, it's better, but if it's the latter, then it will be difficult for me to go forward."

"Go to sea?"

Zu Kuan now had more doubts. Didn't the imperial court open the sea?

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

Zu Dashou waved his hand and said: "In the next period of time, you will individually screen out those who are familiar with water properties among the personal guards."

"Someone has an intuition that the truth will be revealed soon. All we can do now is to be patient and wait. Wei Zhongxian is a master who will not let go of eagles when he sees rabbits. He can rise strongly in the inner court. And if he has won the trust of the emperor, then he will be ruthless and not ordinary ruthless. From now on, let’s do things down-to-earth, otherwise, I will have to suffer some time!!”
