Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 166
Outside the capital, Xuanbeifang, Yuxu Temple.

The wind at the end of February is still chilly, and the howling cold wind makes the dilapidated Taoist temple under the night, although illuminated by the bright moon, seem a bit eerie. This is in sharp contrast to the Buddhist temples under the rule of the capital.

Buddha thrives in prosperous times, and truth comes out in troubled times.

Yuxu Temple has a long history in Beijing, but there are so many Buddhists that it is difficult for this Taoist temple to hide its dilapidated appearance. Under the silent night, a figure suddenly flashed, and under the cover of the night, the figure disappeared into the Taoist temple.

"Who?!"

I don't know how long it took, but somewhere in a remote house inside the Taoist temple, the closed door was pried open, causing the man who was resting inside to immediately become alert.

"Master, I'm a slave~"

Hearing the familiar voice, the man sitting on the bed secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He hid the dagger in his sleeve, but then frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you before that you don't come here to look for me if you have nothing to do?"

"Grandpa, something happened."

In the darkness, the man moved forward cautiously, for fear of encountering something, and said softly: "For some reason, the Jin Yiwei sent out a lot of people, and it seems they are doing something."

There was a dead silence in the house.

The man who came to report the situation felt nervous in his heart. After some time, he heard the sound of several flints, and some sparks shot out in the dark house. Then a faint light came on, and the picture The familiar face made the visitor subconsciously lower his head and want to kneel on the ground.

"It seems that Tianqi's child has noticed something."

The thin man, wearing a worn Taoist robe, said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth: "If this is the case, the various ministries stationed in Fengtai and Xishan Camps before left Beijing with such a huge momentum are really going to aid Liao, so...I There is nothing wrong with what you are doing.”

"Master Yingming."

The man in black hurriedly flattered him and said, "It's just that now the Jinyiwei has moved, and a large number of Jinyiwei banner schools who left Beijing before have all returned to Beijing with Luo Sigong, so what we do..."

"What are you afraid of!"

The thin man frowned and interrupted, staring at the bald head. A few ring scars could be vaguely seen. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "When I sneak into the capital, no one will know about me. Even if the Jin Yiwei has hands and eyes, how will he know about me?" Wait for the existence?"

"Besides, it's the sons of those old men who are responsible for driving up the price of food in the Gyeonggi area. They made a lot of money in the past, and they will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity this time. Besides, my whereabouts were secretive before. It’s just matchmaking in secret.”

The man in black's hanging heart finally dropped a little.

"But... you can't stay in those temples in the outer city any longer."

The thin man thought for a while, looked at the man and said, "The situation in the capital is different from before. There are people coming and going in those temples, wanting to do something. After all, there are too many people and it's a bit confusing."

"Destroy the ultimatum without leaving any traces. From now on, you can go begging in various squares in the inner city. Wu Laosan has established a foothold in Mingshi Square."

"嗻~"

The man in black responded instinctively, but this move made the thin man frown. He quickly stepped forward and raised his hand to slap the man in black.

slap~
Crisp slaps resounded in this house.

"How many times have I said, don't say "嗻", say "喏".

The thin man reprimanded in a low voice: "This is not in Jianzhou Sanwei, but in the capital. You are looking for death. Don't get me involved!"

"Slaves are guilty."

The man in black immediately fell to his knees.

"Li Bin, how long have you been with your father-in-law?" When the thin man saw this, he suppressed his anger and looked down at Li Bin who was kneeling on the ground.

"Master, this slave was born in the master's house since he was a child."

Li Bin said hurriedly. "To put it this way, it has been 27 years."

The thin man said quietly: "You haven't married and had children yet, have you?"

"Yes."

Li Bin didn't know why his uncle asked this, but he still lowered his head and said: "Since I abandoned the secrets and turned to the light, and followed the Queen of the Great Golden Khan, my slaves have been sent to the capital..."

"The incense must continue."

The thin man smiled, bent down and handed over the oil lamp he was holding, and stretched out his hand to hold Li Bin's arm. "After this matter is over, I will send a letter to Liaodi asking you to return to your father-in-law and marry a wife. It can not only warm your bed, but also give you a few more cubs."

Li Bin was overjoyed when he heard this. As a child of his own family, even if he wanted to continue the family lineage, he would have to give permission to his family.

Just as Li Bin was thinking about it, he felt a dark shadow flash before his eyes. Immediately, Li Bin's eyes widened and he looked up at the thin man in disbelief.

The oil lamp he was holding fell to the ground.

The flames went out immediately.

In the darkness, Li Bin covered his neck with both hands, blood overflowing from his fingers, "Wuchang~"

"Don't blame me."

Wu Changchun smiled ferociously, clenched his dagger and stabbed Li Bin hard, "If I'm to blame, I blame you for being disobedient. I told you not to act rashly, but you are so easy to act."

Li Bin, whose forehead was buried in the dagger, fell heavily to the ground, his eyes wide open.

He didn't understand until his death that he had reported the information he knew out of worry, but why he ended up like this.

"This place can't stay anymore."

Wu Changchun, who was in the darkness, could smell the strong smell of blood, "It's a pity that the 200 taels of silver were gone. If I had known this, I wouldn't have found a way out, and I would have exchanged my certificate with Dao Lu Division."

With that said, Wu Changchun walked towards the bed in the dark. After finding a bundle, he tied it skillfully to his chest. He immediately struck the flint and ignited the bed curtain, then turned and walked towards the window.

The wind in the dark night is very cold.

"It's out of water~"

A Taoist priest who was getting up to take a nap at night saw a sudden burst of fire. He was immediately frightened and woke up. Then he started shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Go away!"

"Hurry up, people!!"

In the originally silent Taoist temple, bursts of shouts rang out, while Wu Changchun, hiding in the darkness somewhere, quietly observed this scene.

If you want to put out the fire, wait until the oil is burned out.

The corners of Wu Changchun's mouth turned up slightly. Thinking of the oil barrel he placed under the bed, he sneered in his heart. However, when he saw more people, Wu Changchun shrank inward.

Under the darkness, Wu Changchun's eyes were spinning wildly, but he was thinking secretly in his heart, "It seems that I have to change my identity and meet those officials. If chaos really breaks out in the capital, I'm afraid Tianqi'er will be very passive. Passing the news about Gyeonggi out of the border is a great achievement! '

Thinking of Wu Changchun here, his heart inevitably became hot. Although he had not been through these days of darkness and fear, he did not want to experience it again for a moment. He just thought of those familiar faces. If he succeeds, then even if he is Li Yongfang's son-in-law, he will probably die.

Thinking of this, Wu Changchun secretly made up his mind to make things happen that he had planned for a long time, otherwise everything would be in vain...
