Daming: From the end of Hongwu

……

On the other hand, after Xue Lu came out of Jinyiwei, he went back with peace of mind. He still had to eat and drink at night, but he didn't expect that Xue Lu didn't see Ji Gang take the initiative to explain to him all day the next day.

It is impossible for Jin Yiwei to check the information so slowly.

Xue Lu immediately stopped Ji Gang after the government was over another day.

He looked at Ji Gang coldly, with a gloomy expression, his actions instantly attracted the attention of many people.

Who is it?

How dare he confront Ji Gang head-on.

I don't know that Jin Yiwei has been envious of arresting people recently. When a person enters the imperial prison, he is accompanied by a whole bunch of them.

After many people had doubts, they turned their heads and looked carefully. Afterwards, everyone immediately recognized Xue Lu, and all of these people suddenly showed curiosity in their eyes.

This is something to watch.

One is the commander of Jin Yiwei, who is in full swing, and the holy scroll is in full bloom, and the other is the governor of the right army, Qian Shi Yang Wuhou, one of Zhao Guogong's most trusted arms.

If these two people quarreled, it would be enough for everyone to watch.

Ji Gang's eyes and ears were sharp, and he guessed about the expressions and thoughts of the officials in the court. He looked at Xue Lu who had a bad face, and somehow didn't want to fall into the name of Jinyiwei in front of everyone, and he even didn't want to Let yourself be trampled on again, and suddenly become paranoid and ruthless.

"Master Hou, what is the purpose of this?"

"What kind of lake are you and I pretending to be!" Xue Lu said coldly.

"Your official really doesn't know what Lord Hou means." Ji Gang's expression also sank.

"Okay, I remind you, how about Zeng Gu's account for me?" Xue Lu asked in a deep voice.

"Zeng Gu? Who is Zeng Gu?" Ji Gang asked pretendingly.

Xue Lu's face suddenly became angry: "You bastard, don't you really dare to touch me?"

Xue Lu did not lower the volume of these words, and the people around who were paying attention to the movement here heard them all clearly, and the expressions of many people changed for a while, while Zhang Wu and other generals of the right army, or Jing Among the meritorious officials, those who had friendship with Xue Lu all frowned.

But Zhang Wu and the others didn't say anything. If they all supported Xue Lu, it would not only appear to be bullying the few with the more, but it would also appear that Ji Gang is a character.

In their hearts, Xue Lu could handle Ji Gang's role by himself.

At this time, Ji Gang felt the faces of the people, unwilling to admit cowardice, his face sank, and he also angrily said: "Your man? Please be careful, Lord Hou, all the people in the world are kings and ministers. We are all the emperor's people. Why? What did the person who came to you say?"

The people around were in an uproar.

Many of them actually looked at Ji Gang with some admiration. They didn't expect that Ji Gang was not only cruel to their former Jianwen ministers, but also dared to show no weakness to Jing Nan's heroes.

After Ji Gang noticed this, he was a little surprised, and then a gleam of joy floated in his heart. He didn't expect to gain such a reward from the confrontation with Xue Lu, so it seems that it is not a bad thing to be a pair with Xue Lu.

Perhaps after this incident, those Jing Nan heroes did not dare to underestimate him anymore.

For a moment, Ji Gang became more determined.

He was neglected for a long time before, and he was paranoid that everyone looked down on him, but once he got the power, he wished to use the power in his hand to make everyone in the world look at him.

He dared to use ten points of power.

"you…"

Xue Lu was so suffocated that he couldn't speak, his face was so ugly that he could wring out water for a moment.

How can he compare to Shang Ji Gang when he is more skilled than his mouth.

but it does not matter.

Since verbal skill is not as good as it is, let's do it directly.

A fierce look appeared on Xue Lu's face, but just when he was about to strike, Zhang Wu and others hurried out and stopped Xue Lu. What kind of place is this, and Xue Lu can let Xue Lu strike at will? !

Don't want to live anymore? !

Xue Lu was stopped by Zhang Wu and others. After he regained consciousness, the rising anger slowly dissipated. He looked at Ji Gang with cold eyes, full of murderous aura, and Ji Gang strode away as if he didn't realize it.

But when Ji Gang got away from Xue Lu just now, the hardened heart just now dissipated, and he couldn't help but began to worry.

Xue Lu, the fighters in the army, dared to beat people if they disagreed with each other. If Xue Lu beat him up, it would be a big embarrassment.

No.

It's better to stay at Master Jingmiao's place for two days to avoid the limelight, and wait until Zhu Gaoxu comes back to talk about other things, Ji Gang thought.

After thinking about it, Ji Gang asked someone to pack his things for him, but the next moment, Ji Gang stopped his followers again. He was a little worried that Xue Lu would find Master Jingmiao's Taoist temple. After thinking about it, he told his followers: "Go to the Yamen Here, call all the Luohan King Kong in Beijing, and bring another hundred or ten masters, and let them go with me to live with Master Jingmiao."

Follow the call and go.

The fierce light in Ji Gang's eyes was victorious, and he thought fiercely in his heart, I hope Xue Lu can know what is good or bad, if the persecution is really too tight, he will not care whether Xue Lu is a hero of Jing Nan or not.

Do you really think he is easy to bully?

What about Zhao Guogong's arm, so what if he moves it, as long as he doesn't suffer from it, and when things get serious, he has the emperor and the second prince behind him. I don't believe anyone can make him suffer again.

Not to mention a Yang Wuhou, even Zhao Guogong, what can he do to him? !

After all, beating a dog depends on the owner.

His dog is a royal dog, and not everyone can beat and scold him.

……

Chapter 332 - Is that nun pretty?

the other side.

After Xue Lu, Zhang Wu and others dispersed, Xue Lu returned to his home in a gloomy mood. He sat down heavily on the chair and poured a pot of tea while purring. The depression in his heart still didn't get better.

He only felt that it was a big embarrassment to be contradicted by Ji Gang in front of Zhang Wu and others.

What made him even more puzzled was that Ji Gang had been very polite to him two days ago, how could his attitude change so drastically today?

Forgot to take medicine, fell ill?

But no matter what, since Ji Gang doesn't give face, he has to think about it, how to find Ji Gang's troubles is not urgent, there is a chance, but Zeng Gu's matter needs him to deal with it properly as soon as possible.

After all, Zeng Gu begged on his head, and he agreed to the matter. If this matter was not handled properly, there would really be no place to put his face.

After Xue Lu thought about it, he called Zhao Ying, and asked Zhao Ying to pick some people to help Zeng Gu in Daming Mansion with a solemn face.

And he also explained everything in detail, saying that even if Zeng Gu was framed and sent to prison, he would do everything possible to save Zeng Gu's life. As for what happened afterwards, he would restore Zeng Gu's innocence. of.

Zhao Ying carefully wrote down these explanations, and then hurried down to select staff.

Not long after, Zhao Ying's carefully selected players quickly left the city and headed towards the Daming Mansion.

Xue Lu was only slightly relieved at this time.

However, in the afternoon, a piece of news hit him like a bolt from the blue, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

"What? You said Zeng Gu's family has been wiped out?" Xue Lu looked at Zhao Ying with rounded eyes and said in a rage with disbelief.

Zhao Ying nodded with an ugly face, and then explained: "I went out of the mansion today, and I happened to meet a caravan from Daming Mansion. I thought that Zeng Gu belonged to Daming Mansion, so I found the caravan. The steward asked a few questions, but he didn't think about it, so he got the news."

"Where's the caravan manager?" Xue Lu asked in a deep voice, as if he was suppressing a monstrous anger.

Zhao Ying hurriedly said: "I brought it back, and I'm waiting in the hall."

"Call him in."

Zhao Ying responded, ran outside in two or three steps, and called the steward of the caravan in.

Xue Lu looked at the steward with a pair of tiger eyes, and then asked in a cold voice: "You said that the whole family of Zeng Gu's family was killed? Do you know what the result will be if you criticize the court officials?"

The steward knelt down with a thud, he was apprehensive when he came to the Hou's mansion, but now seeing Xue Lu's uneasy expression, he was even more frightened to death, he didn't dare to think too much, and swore repeatedly with trembling voices.

"I don't dare to talk nonsense. This is indeed true. Everyone in the Daming Mansion basically knows it. What's more, Zeng Zhifu is not an unknown person in the Daming Mansion. At that time, there was a lot of trouble about it. Since the young one is not far from Zeng's residence, he secretly watched from afar."

"Who did it? Why did the Zeng family suffer such annihilation?"

"It's Jin Yiwei, but the specific reason is not clear. It seems that Zeng Zhifu secretly hid the rebels. After being discovered by Jin Yiwei, he tried to resist arrest. Jin Yiwei had no choice but to kill him." After the manager finished speaking, secretly He took a quick look at Xue Lu's expression.

Xue Lu's face was already covered with frost at this moment. After hearing what the steward said, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and Zeng's anger rose up.

He slapped the table heavily, and he stood up abruptly like a tiger about to go down the mountain, and said angrily, "What a Ji Gang! How dare you play me like that."

Seeing Xue Lu getting angry, Zhao Ying waved at the frightened and paralyzed steward, telling him to go out first.

The steward was like a drowning person being rescued. He didn't dare to breathe quickly and carefully retreated slowly. He didn't dare to breathe lightly until he was some distance away from the main room. Bo Lan, as if he could scare people to death for no reason, he muttered softly, "It's the killing god who came out of the battlefield."

And inside the house.

Zhao Ying asked Xue Lu softly: "Master Hou, what do you think?"

Xue Lu's eyes filled with anger flashed a few times of thinking light, and immediately, he gritted his teeth and said murderously: "Find a chance and chop it with a knife, so as to eliminate the hatred in my heart."

Zhao Ying was startled, and he said worriedly: "Master Hou, why don't we go talk to His Majesty first?"

"Looking for His Majesty? Sue?"

Zhao Ying fell silent.

Xue Lu glanced at Zhao Ying, and explained: "What evidence do you have to find His Majesty? Even if you have evidence, you will sit still as Ji Gang? No, he won't, he will definitely ask His Majesty to quibble, and His Majesty is the last Nostalgic, maybe His Majesty will still spare Ji Gang's life."

Speaking of this, Xue Lu snorted coldly and said: "Verse is also true, I hacked Ji Gang to death with one knife, I don't believe His Majesty will also take my head because of Ji Gang."

Zhao Ying thought about it and realized that this was really the case.

Xue Lu already had the knife in his hand at this moment, and he raised his head towards Zhao Ying and said, "Go, find that grandson of Ji Gang, find a reason to quarrel, and then chop him with a knife, Grandma's, and Lao Tzu's!" People, do you think I have no temper?"

"Yes." Zhao Ying responded and quickly followed Xue Lu.

But Ji Gang was no longer in the city at this time, and what Ji Gang was afraid of was Xue Lu, an unruly man like Xue Lu, so Xue Lu searched around the city, whether it was the Jinyiwei yamen or Ji Gang's home, naturally he couldn't find Ji Gang figure.

Xue Lu was anxious, but he had no choice but to return home again and ask someone to find out about Ji Gang's whereabouts.

For two or three days in a row.

There is no obvious clue to Ji Gang's whereabouts, but Zhao Ying brought a special message.

At this time, Xue Lu was drinking alone in boredom, listening to Zhao Ying's rambunctious talk.

"Then Ji Gang used to be annoyed by people, so he never got married. After he became the commander of Jin Yiwei, he looked like a dog. Although he added a few women to the family, according to inquiries, they were not favored by Ji Gang. On the contrary, in a Taoist temple on Qingliang Mountain, there is a female Taoist who is favored by Ji Gang. It seems that Ji Gang wanted to bring this Taoist home several times, but the Taoist was unwilling, and Ji Gang never used it. Will it be hiding in the Taoist temple these days?"

Xue Lu's eyes lit up, and while slowly putting down the jug, he said, "If it's true as you said, it doesn't matter whether Ji Gang is in the Taoist temple or not, let me ask you..."

Xue Lu was silent for a while, and then said again: "Is that Taoist girl pretty?"

Zhao Ying was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure if it's pretty or not, but at least it's interesting."

"It should be reasonable for me to snatch this Taoist girl back to the Hou's mansion to sleep for two days." Xue Lu pondered.

This…

Zhao Ying smiled meanly, and said brightly: "That's quite plausible. The subordinates have already said that everything in our Hou's mansion is good, but the Hou is short of a few women. When it comes to picking women, we should read Those who have read the book will pick, look at Renji Gang, and ponder in the Taoist temple. We can't think of this kind of place to kill, but there is one thing that Lord Hou has to do with his subordinates. The Taoist temple will not only have one Taoist nun, the most beautiful Needless to say, Master Hou took it away, and I hope Master Hou will give you the rest, and we also want to see what Taoist nun is like."

Xue Lu was stunned.

After he realized it, he slapped Zhao Ying on the head: "What are you thinking so stupidly? I'm leading you to rob people's girls... No, Taoist nuns can't rob them either."

Zhao Ying was a little confused: "Then what did you mean by snatching it back?"

Xue Lu nodded angrily at Zhao Ying and said, "Isn't Ji Gang rare for that Taoist nun? I snatch it back, are you still afraid that Ji Gang won't show up? Even if he doesn't show up, it's enough to make him half-dead. If he shows up, I'll beat him to death." He can also say that he was jealous and killed him by mistake, so I also said in front of His Majesty that at most, he will be punished by His Majesty, and he will not be able to move his muscles and bones, understand?"

"Ah, that's it." Zhao Ying was a little disappointed.

"What's your fucking expression?" Xue Lu raised his hand to slap Zhao Ying again.

Zhao Ying was so frightened that he hurriedly smiled and said: "It's nothing, nothing, I just lamented that Master Hou's method is high, it is really high."

Xue Lu snorted and said: "Of course it is, otherwise why would I be Lord Hou?" After finishing speaking, Xue Lu continued: "Well, I don't want to drink this wine anymore, let's go to Qingliang Mountain to grab it." people go."

Zhao Ying followed immediately.

When they walked out of the Hou's mansion, Zhao Ying looked back and found that there were only five or six followers following him. Zhao Ying asked Xue Lu, "Master Hou, do you want your subordinates to lead a team of guards?"

"is it necessary?"

Xue Lu cast a glance at Zhao Ying, and said disdainfully, "I've already rushed over the formation of thousands of troops. How can a small Qingliang Mountain stop me?"

After finishing speaking, Xue Lu raised his whip high and threw it down, and the horse kicked up its front hooves in pain, and rushed out.

A group of people galloped towards Qingliang Mountain in the west city.

……

The Huaihe River flows from the foot of Qingliang Mountain, and it already has the smell of winter. The water vapor permeates the entire Qingliang Mountain, which has already startled the branches and leaves in spring, making them yellow and yellow, and finally hiding behind the coming year.
