Daming: I really don’t want to be an emperor!

Lan Yu's success and failure are both due to his adopted son. Now everything is related to Lan Yu.

Zhu Yunxun sighed inwardly, "What about the latter?"

"The mastermind behind spreading the rumors has not been identified yet, but all those who spread the rumors have been under surveillance, and have all been secretly arrested and detained in the Northern Pacification Prison. According to the Jinyiwei, these people who spread the rumors are believers of Buddhism, but they do not admit that anyone instructed them. There is not much public opinion, and they have been effectively controlled." Xie Tian replied.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunhuan was not happy.

"Effectively controlled? Do you know that a single spark can start a prairie fire?"

Hearing this, Xie Tian's face changed, "Your Majesty means, kill him?"

Kill all those who spread rumors?

Hearing Xie Tian's words, Zhu Yunhuan showed disdain, "I am really curious, why did Jiang Lin recommend you two to me."

These two people are loyal, but their ability to read people's expressions is much worse than Jiang Li's.

"We failed to understand the emperor's will, and we are guilty." Thank God, the two men cried and quickly confessed their crimes.

Woo woo woo.

Zhu Yunhuan sat down and rubbed his brows, thanking God. These two people were probably promoted because there was no one else available when Jiang Li cleaned up Zhu Yuanzhang's people within the Northern Pacification Office.

Although the two have certain abilities, it is difficult for them to take on the main responsibility.

It was fortunate that these two were loyal, otherwise Zhu Yunhuan would have replaced them long ago.

"Notify Liu Sanwu to immediately write a letter in the name of Ming Daily to comfort the people. Write down all the situations in Buddhism. Didn't you, the Jinyiwei, catch the person who spread the plague? Attach his testimony as well and spread it widely. Also write that Taoism has entered the world free of charge to save people and provide relief to the people. King Zhu Su of Zhou has led the imperial doctors to rescue the people with all their strength. Please don't panic." Zhu Yunhuan ordered.

"As you wish." Thank God, the two of them responded in unison.

The Buddhists spread the plague, while the Taoists save the world, and the two appeared in the same newspaper. The comparison is obvious.

"You, the Jinyiwei, should also take action and disclose all the matters related to Buddhism that you have found out. Also, pick out some of the sealed-off temples in the capital that are neither too bad nor too good, and give them to the Taoist sect. Convert them into Taoist temples to accommodate Taoists coming from all over the country." Zhu Yunhuan continued to give orders.

"Yes." The two continued to respond.

As long as Liu Sanwu's article in the Daming Daily spreads throughout the world, the Taoist sect will be completely dragged down.

It's time to leave.

Taoism gained fame and Zhu Yunhuan gained benefits, which was good for everyone.

"Check the Buddhist temples where the plague has spread. If there are any extremely evil people, kill them all under the cover of night to teach Buddhism a lesson. Don't reveal your tracks." Zhu Yunhuan continued to give orders.

Just pretend to be a killer.

"Yes." Thank God the two of them took note.

"Go down." Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand and let the two go down.

These two people carried out orders to the letter and were good in everything except their ability to read people's expressions.

"We will take our leave." They thanked God, bowed and hurriedly left.

"Duke Ying, it's time to prune the branches of the big tree in Huaixi. You are fully responsible for driving up the price of medicinal materials. You need to make the price return to normal. You can handle the person behind this."

Zhu Yunhuan looked at Fu Youde. It was another matter involving Lan Yu. Last time it was handed over to Tang He, so it would be appropriate for Fu Youde to do it this time.

"Yes." Fu Youde was a little reluctant to take this task.

But the king is serious. The order has been given and we have to do it even if we don’t want to.

"Lord Wang, the Buddhist sect is no longer personally involved in this matter, but is deceiving the loyal pilgrims. Go and inform all the officials and ask them to be careful so that no one in your family gets into trouble."

Zhu Yunhuan looked at Wang Chunsan again.

Upon hearing this, Wang Chunsan understood the implication of Zhu Yunhuan's words. This was asking all officials not to get involved in this matter. If only some ordinary people were involved and no one was fanning the flames, nothing big would happen.

Zhu Yunhuan was worried that someone in the family of officials would get close to Buddhism, so he was giving them a heads-up in advance. Don't say I didn't warn you.

"The minister obeys the order."

Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand and said, "Everyone, go down. I'm tired. Tell those outside to leave as well."

"Yes, we will take our leave." Wang Chunsan and Fu Youde both withdrew.

A bloody storm is coming.

At this time, the grassland was truly a sea of blood and corpses. With the naked eye, there were corpses everywhere.

Zhu Gang led his subordinates on horseback and galloped at full speed, aiming for the Northern Yuan Dynasty's flag. It didn't matter whether there was a flag-protecting camp or not, as long as they could capture the flag, they would be considered to have captured the flag.

"The man carrying the big banner in front, stop! Hand over the banner and I will spare your life!" the deputy general shouted loudly.

The soldier carrying the banner of the Northern Yuan Dynasty could never have imagined that the Ming army would arrive so quickly, and even more so that the Yuan army following him had been basically killed. He looked back and saw only corpses and blood in the distance.

The red sunset seemed to be dyed with blood, becoming particularly red, as if the entire sky was dyed red with blood.

The soldier raised his head and looked at the Northern Yuan flag fluttering in the wind. He took a deep breath, stopped, turned his horse around, and faced Zhu Gang and others.

"Whoa!" When Zhu Gang and others saw that this guy finally stopped, they immediately rushed forward, surrounded him, and quickly dismounted, forming an encirclement.

Zhu Gang was also exhausted, but he couldn't help cursing, "Why are you running? You are just carrying the banner, and you are not protecting your emperor. The banner guards have all been wiped out. Why do you want to run away like this? Why don't you give us the banner in exchange for your wealth and glory?"

"There are only those who died in battle, but there has never been any who surrendered. I am still alive, and the Banner Guard Battalion has not yet been wiped out! As long as I am alive, the banner will never fall!"
