Chapter 1374 Li Zhendao Was Discovered
“他们有这样的想法也正常。”郝大通谄媚地说道：“这都是大人您没有烧No.15寨到No.18寨，让十四寨认为No.15寨到No.18寨没有出事。No.15寨到No.18寨没有出事，自然No.14寨很难出现官兵。所以他们便放松了警惕。”

"My lord, how are we doing?" General Zhang asked, looking at the gate of the village in the distance.

"Let the scouts observe. Let's talk about it tomorrow. The troops should pay attention to hiding, and don't let the bandits find out."

Beijing.

Royal Palace.

Liu Shouyou stood in front of Emperor Jiajing. Emperor Jiajing was looking at the urgently sent letter from Jinyiwei Babaili. The more he looked at it, the more ugly his face became. Finally, he threw the letter on the imperial book table and shouted:

"Call Xu Jie and Gao Gong."

cabinet.

Gao Gong and Xu Jie sat facing each other, both of them looked very gloomy. Between them, there was a memorial, which was sent by Hu Zongxian and sent to the cabinet.

"Lord Gao, please suppress this memorial." Xu Jie said softly.

Gao Gong nodded, Xu Jie's face became relaxed, and at this moment, there was a knock on the door.Xu Jie said in a deep voice:

"Come in."

A scribe came in, glanced at Gao Gong, Xu Jie said in a low voice, "Say."

"Lord Liu Shouyou is attacking."

The expressions of Gao Gong and Xu Jie changed, and then both of them had wry smiles on their faces.

"It seems that I can't hold back anymore, Jin Yiwei has sent the news to His Majesty."

"Ta Tata..."

There were footsteps outside again, and a figure walked in.Xu Jie and Gao Gong hurriedly stood up, cupped their hands towards Huang Jin and said:
"Eunuch Huang."

"My lords, Your Majesty has summoned you."

Xu Jie and Gao Gong looked at each other, Xu Jie reached out and picked up Hu Zongxian's memorial on the table, and followed Huang Jin out.

Royal study.

Emperor Jiajing watched Xu Jie and Gao Gong walk in, his eyes fell on the memorial in Xu Jie's hand, and he said coldly:

"What are you holding?"

"Return to Your Majesty, it is Hu Zongxian's memorial."

"Oh?" There was a sneer in Emperor Jiajing's eyes: "What are you talking about?"

"Yes..." Xu Jie paused for a moment, and then said: "When Li Zhendao arrived in Guangxi, he was afraid of bandits and asked Hu Zongxian to send someone to the mountains to call Luo Xin back to receive the order. Later, he became afraid and stayed in Daying for three days. Days later, they finally entered the forest under the protection of fifty soldiers."

"Crack!" Emperor Jiajing slapped the imperial book angrily and said, "This is the person you sent? Doesn't he know that Luo Xin can't come back without an imperial decree? A general who sent troops outside, if someone goes to say something, Luo Xin came back with the army, is that still a general?
Can he still be called the God of War?

The one who impeached his colleagues in the court, who looked as if he would die, and who would not move forward when he was really in danger, is this the person you have chosen?

You have been in fear for three days in the camp. Do you know how many things will happen in the old forest during these three days?Do you know what Hu Zongxian said when Li Zhendao was afraid to move forward?Didn't write in his memorial? "

"I wrote it!" Xu Jie said with his head down.

"Read!" Emperor Jiajing shouted.

Xu Jie opened the memorial, found that sentence, and read: "How can Mr. Li be afraid of bandits? Don't you know how to educate? No matter how vicious bandits are, Mr. Li can tell them with just one mouth. You have to kneel down. Maybe when you go to Master Luo and say something to the bandits, all the bandits will surrender. This is an opportunity for Master Li to make contributions and show his enlightenment!"

"This is the confidence and courage of your education?

I was thinking, is it because Li Zhen is not good at teaching Taoism, and I should send you two people with profound skills to teach the bandits in Jiangxi. "

Xu Jie and Gao Gong knew that Emperor Jiajing was speaking in anger, and it was impossible to send their two cabinets to Jiangxi Laolin, but their expressions could not help but change.

This Li Zhendao, it's really not enough to succeed but more to fail.He was extremely brave in the capital, but when he arrived in Jiangxi, he showed a bearish appearance.

This matter is not small. Originally, Xu Jie and Gao Gong had the upper hand in the officialdom, because this is no longer a matter of Luo Xin's suppression of bandits, but has become a dispute between the civil official group and the military official group, and has become enlightenment. and Killing Controversy.Therefore, under this so-called righteousness, both Xu Jie and Gao Gong joined forces to gain the upper hand in the court.

However, among the more active scholars, the idea of ​​enlightenment did not completely gain the upper hand, and the two sides argued about not cultivating, and it was a state of stalemate.

But it is different among the people, who almost overwhelmingly support Luo Xin.The teahouses and restaurants all over the street are supporting Luo Xin, and those storytellers are even telling stories about the cruelty and greed of those rebels and mountain people every day.

If the story of Li Zhendao spreads in the capital at this time, the civil servants will welcome a wave of ridicule.And this kind of ridicule will lower the morale of the civilian group, which is definitely not a good thing for them.

"Why did you choose Li Zhendao?"

The second village.

On a dense tree, three people hid there. Through the gap between the mottled leaves, they looked at the ruins of the second village.

At this time, in front of the ruins of the second village, there were more than fifty people standing.

It was Li Zhendao who entered the old forest and fifty soldiers who protected him.

"My lord, who is that person?" A woman's voice sounded softly.

Zhang Daoyuan frowned and said in a low voice: "It seems that he is an official of the imperial court, but what is he doing in the mountain at this time?"

And at this moment, Li Zhendao suddenly cursed.

"Luo Xin, you butcher, you've read sage books in vain..."

Zhang Daoyuan laughed silently.From Li Zhendao's cursing, he had already learned everything.

"My lord, the dog emperor asked this person to announce the decree, to let Luo Xin retreat?" the man whispered in disbelief.

"Yes, Emperor Dog is really stupid, but he helped us." Zhang Daoyuan's tone was full of disdain.

"Then... what should we do?"

Zhang Daoyuan thought for a while and said: "With the physical strength of this civil servant, I don't know how many days I walked to the second village. I don't know when I will be able to reach the ninth village and find Luo Xin. Moreover, we don't know Luo Xin yet. Is the letter in the Ninth Village?"

"Luo Xin is no longer in the Ninth Village?"

"I don't know, at least I haven't seen him."

"Then he..."

A wise light flashed in Zhang Daoyuan's eyes: "Neither the front gate nor the back gate of the Ninth Village saw Luo Xin, and we didn't go to see the canyon. But I guess he is not there either."

"Then where is he?"

"I guess he led his troops to one of the tenth to eighteenth villages, probably to the eighteenth villages."
