Smiling and looking at the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus, the Emperor Tianqi picked up the wine glass and poured the wine, and then said: "I want to know, why does your White Lotus Sect have breakfast? Why do you insist on it so persistently?"

She smiled wryly and was about to shake her head. The Saintess of the White Lotus showed nostalgia on her face, and finally said with some regret: "I grew up in the White Lotus Sect. If I hadn't been raised by the White Lotus Sect Master, I would have died a long time ago. So For many years, I have regarded the White Lotus Sect as my home, and the White Lotus Sect Master as my father." Having said this, a look of pain flashed across the face of the White Lotus Saintess.

Emperor Tianqi didn't say anything, but gently picked up the wine glass in front of him, touched the wine glass of the White Lotus Maiden, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"Originally, I thought that the White Lotus Sect's rebellion was for the well-being of the people, for the common people of the world." A self-deprecating smile flashed across her face, and the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus said bitterly, "But now I understand that this is just a joke."

Slightly stunned, Emperor Tianqi said differently: "Why do you think so? This is very rare. As far as I know, the White Lotus Sect has many loyal members, just like the people who came to the capital to save you this time."

"Someone came to save me? It must be Granny Huang. Judging by Mr. Bai's appearance, these people must be in danger!" A nasty smile flashed across the face of the Bailian saint. Although her expression did not change much, Emperor Tianqi I can still feel the sadness in her heart.

Without talking about Granny Huang again, as if she couldn't take it to heart, the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus continued: "There are indeed many loyal members of the White Lotus Sect, but these people are dead soldiers trained by the Sect. There is no self. But in the White Lotus Sect, these people have no right to speak, they just obey orders."

Nodding his head slowly, Emperor Tianqi naturally understood this truth.This is the same as the terrorist organizations in later generations. The role of the dead is to die at the right time. As for the decision-making, the dead will not intervene.

"People are ambitious. Many thieves, or people with ulterior motives have joined the White Lotus Sect. It does not mean that those in the White Lotus Sect are ambitious. It is the ambitious people who have joined the White Lotus Sect. This is why the White Lotus Sect has always existed and The reason for the rebellion all the time. You must know that there is no shortage of ulterior motives and Jiangyang thieves in this world, and they have existed since ancient times." An inexplicable meaning flashed across the face of the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus, wondering if it was a pity for the White Lotus Sect. [

Emperor Tianqi nodded slightly. The White Lotus Sect is like the terrorists of later generations, and these people cannot be influenced.Unless it can really be eliminated, it is difficult to have any results.

"Master Bai, in fact, the White Lotus Sect is just a minor ailment. If the monarch is truly wise and the country is peaceful and the people are safe, how many people are willing to rebel? The White Lotus Sect at that time is probably a joke. If it was in troubled times and the world rose up, would there be a White Lotus Sect?" What's the difference? I don't know what Mr. Bai thinks?" The Holy Maiden of the White Lotus looked at Emperor Tianqi with a smile, with some kind of anticipation flashing on her face.

Sighing softly, Emperor Tianqi looked at the Holy Maiden Bailian with a smile, and said, "Although there are suspicions of pulling me into the trap, but what I said is correct. At that time at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there was no White Lotus Sect to take the lead in rioting. The Yuan Dynasty has come to a strange road."

Looking at the face of Emperor Tianqi who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus didn't say anything, she just drank the wine in her hand, and said a little lonely: "You shouldn't come here, if you spread it, people will criticize it, and it will have a great impact on you. big."

Emperor Tianqi was slightly taken aback.But he smiled and didn't speak.However, Emperor Tianqi looked at Chen Lin who was waiting on the side, and ordered: "Go down!"

"Young master?" Chen Lin looked at Emperor Tianqi worriedly, his voice was full of fear, and his gaze towards the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus was a bit unkind.

"Let him stay! This father-in-law is good. He can protect you, but I don't know if I can bear it." The Holy Maiden of the White Lotus smiled brightly at Emperor Tianqi, her face was full of sunshine, but she said The words made me a little nervous.

Shaking his head indifferently, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "There are some things that you know you can't do, but you must do them. Tens of thousands of people will do it, and they will never regret it after a hundred deaths."

Looking up at Emperor Tianqi, the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus was full of relief, she nodded and said, "Not bad, very good."

The two suddenly laughed, looked at each other and laughed, for a long time, the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus, said: "The matter is over, let's go! This is not the place you should come, for the sake of our friendship, don't let me It's too ugly."

A complex meaning flashed in his eyes, Emperor Tianqi stood up slowly, nodded solemnly, turned and walked out.But as soon as he arrived at the door, the voice of the white lotus saint inside said: "Be a good emperor and don't let me down."

"I will!" Emperor Tianqi nodded vigorously without turning around, and said in a deep voice, "I promise you!"

Emperor Tianqi returned to the palace, no one knew about this short trip, and no one understood Emperor Tianqi's mood at this time.However, Emperor Tianqi, who returned to the palace, locked himself in the warm pavilion, and after handing over a memorial, there was no news for a whole day.

Holding the memorial in his hand, Wang Chengen's face was very serious, but his heart was filled with fifteen buckets, and he was up and down.Although he wanted to read what was written in it, Wang Chengen didn't have the guts to do so.

When they came to the gate of Fusi in Beizhen, someone had already gone in to communicate, and Luo Sigong picked it up after a short time. [

The two of them were polite, and Luo Sigong approached Wang Chengen to Beizhen Fusi. When he came to the hall to divide the guests and hosts into seats, Luo Sigong said with a smile: "Master Wang must have something at this time, right? Is there any order from the emperor?" ?”

Taking a deep look at Luo Sigong, a smile flashed across Wang Chengen's face, and he said, "Lord Luo seems to have been prepared for a long time. It seems that Master Luo is very familiar with the affairs in the palace. I don't know when Jin Yiwei will reach out to the palace. went inside."

"Eunuch Wang is just joking. Eunuch Wang is a noble person, and everything is out of the Three Treasures Hall. Unless the emperor orders something, Eunuch Wang never leaves the palace. No wonder Luo thinks so."

Smiling calmly, Wang Chengen's dissatisfaction on the mountain quickly subsided, and he looked at Luo Sigong with a smile, who was completely different from just now.After pondering for a while, he said: "Lord Luo, this is your paperwork, the emperor has already approved it, you can take a look!"

The stone in his heart fell to the ground quietly, it really was this matter, but after receiving the memorial, Luo Sigong's heart changed again.But no matter what, as long as it is the decision of Emperor Tianqi, there is nothing to say.

Seeing that Luo Sigong opened the memorial, Wang Chengen's face flashed curiosity, but he suppressed it, stood up slowly and said: "Since the memorial has been delivered, our family will return to the palace, Master Luo will not send it!" Then he strode out.

After sending Wang Chengen away, Luo Sigong slowly opened the memorial, and when he saw the reply above, he was immediately relieved.Looking at the Forbidden City in the distance, Luo Sigong said Nannan: "The emperor is indeed the emperor."

In the next few days, the most shocking news in Beijing was the White Lotus Sect. After announcing the guilt of the White Lotus Sect, the emperor decreed that all the members of the White Lotus Sect be beheaded at Caishikou.

What made people talk about it was that more than 300 people were beheaded this time. According to many gossip, the beheadings were not only in the capital, but all the White Lotus Cultists captured in various places were all beheaded at once.

This news immediately made the capital boil, some were frightened, some relieved their hatred, some couldn't bear it, and there were various reactions.It's just that before this news was digested, another news came again, that the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus committed suicide.Many people want to know the specific details, but there is very little news, only that he died of poisoning.

The three-year New Year of Apocalypse is destined to be a restless New Year, but time will not stop, and the days are slowly coming to the 28th of the twelfth lunar month.All the officials who were due to return to Beijing have returned, and the morning has been cancelled.Although there are many things to do, everyone is looking forward to the arrival of the new year, and the whole capital is filled with joyful atmosphere.

The snowflakes were falling, and the snow on the ground was enough to cover people's ankles. The sky was still very gloomy, and there was no sign of stopping at all.The city of Xingjing in Liaodong was plunged into a vast expanse of whiteness. Although it was the 28th of the New Year, there was no meaning of celebrating the New Year here.

Walking alone in the snow, his steps were very hurried, and he didn't care if the water splashed on his buckskin boots.He walked into the room quickly, took off the cloak and handed it to the maid on the side, who looked at the people in the room with a smile, and said: "I kept everyone waiting, the snow is too big, I can't ride a horse, It's a bit late for my brother."

There were already several people in the room, and they seemed to be talking about something around the brazier.The head was roasting on the fire, and the wine jar was placed on the side, obviously waiting for the arrival of this person.

Seeing this person walk over and sit down, he said with a smile: "What did the elder brother say, brothers, wait for the elder brother, shouldn't it be."

Glancing at the speaker, he saw that it was his fifteenth younger brother Duoduo. Although he was not very old, Duoduo was already a strong man.Smiling and nodding to Duo Duo, Dai Shan's eyes swept across the faces of everyone, and he said in a daze, "Why don't you see Fourteenth Brother?"

The fourteenth brother that Daishan is talking about is Dorgon, and Daishan is obviously very concerned about this younger brother.

"Dorgon was called in by Father Khan. Let's wait a bit. Maybe Father Khan has something for Dorgon to convey." Azig looked at Daishan with complicated eyes when he spoke. There seems to be a lot in his tone.

The rest of the people nodded slowly, Daishan was taken aback for a moment, sighed and said, "I don't know what's wrong with Father Khan's body!" (To be continued...)
