Wife, you didn't really drug me, did you?

Chapter 468 Chen Jiusi: Dharmaba, I have been waiting for you for a long time

"No, not dead!"

Seeing Tuotuo so excited, the messenger had no choice but to answer. After hearing this, Tuotuo took a deep breath and said, "Please ask Master Dharmapa for me!"

The messenger said, "Prime Minister, Master Dharmapa has already gone to the palace. If we invite him now, I'm afraid he may not be willing to come."

After hearing this, Tuotuo hesitated for a moment and said, "Wait a moment."

After saying that, Tuotuo picked up a pen and wrote a few words on a letter. Then he took out half a copper coin from the table. Judging from the style of the coin, it should have been issued during the Taizu period, which means it should have been seventy or eighty years ago.

At this time, Tuotuo said: "Then send this letter to the palace, and you don't have to worry about the rest, understand?"

"Yes."

Tuotuo paused for a moment and said, "Oh, by the way, we must hurry up and go now."

"Yes!"

After hearing Tuotuo's words, his men sped up and ran directly towards the palace at an extremely fast speed.

Tuotuo looked at the messenger's back and murmured, "Success or failure depends on today!"

After saying that, Tuotuo sat down in his seat with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes. He hadn't had this feeling for many years. He remembered that the last time he had this feeling was ten years ago, when he was competing with his political enemies for a position in the court.

I remember it was also a political crisis, and it was like this that time. If you took a step back, you would be doomed. But that time he won, and easily won fame during his lifetime and after his death. He has become the left prime minister of Daqian, second only to the emperor and above everyone else, and he enjoys half of Daqian's national destiny.

He won last time, and he will win this time too!
He will win no matter what.

"Mr. Prime Minister, the King Slaughtering Conference is about to begin. When will you leave?"

Tuotuo was just thinking about it when a voice came from outside. Tuotuo stood up and said, "I'll go right away."

After saying that, he walked straight outside, quickly mounted his horse, and paraded through the streets as if nothing had happened. Today he was going to supervise the execution of the Zoroastrian King Xiao Ming!

Once he kills the Little Ming King, he will become famous throughout the world. Then when today's affairs are over, his reputation will be at its peak, and it will not be too late to consider reducing the power of the princes afterwards.

But the most important thing now is to stop Hama and not let this old guy cause trouble!

The palace!

Dharmapa knelt before the Living Buddha and said with a look of remorse: "Master, I knelt for a whole night and figured it out. I should have put the emperor's safety first and should not have left my post without permission."

The Living Buddha looked at Dharmapa and said without reproach: "Dharmapa, do you know what is the difference between you and the other seven disciples?"

Dharmapa said, “I don’t know.”

The Living Buddha said: "You actually have no affinity with Buddha. You are an ordinary person. It is too difficult for you to become a Buddha. You are not like the second brother, whose heart is purely evil, nor like the third brother, whose heart is purely good. When you are pure evil and do not think about it, you can become a Buddha. This is what Buddhism calls putting down the butcher knife and becoming a Buddha right away."

"A pure and kind person can also become a Buddha. But you are neither good nor evil. You are just one of the countless living beings. It is extremely difficult for you to become a Buddha."

"But I have thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a possibility. You can cultivate me."

"Real me?"

The puzzled Living Buddha Dharmapa asked, "What is the true self?"

The Living Buddha smiled and said, "Just be yourself. Alright, get up and do what you need to do."

Dharmapa was stunned and said, "Master, I don't think I have apologized to His Majesty yet."

After hearing this, the Living Buddha said, "You have been kneeling here for a whole night. What crime are you still asking for? Go now. I will take care of the rest."

After hearing this, Dharmapa stood up in confusion, but when his master said he could solve it, he did not have any doubt at all. He felt that there was nothing in the world that his master could not solve. After all, his master was a deity on earth.

Thinking of this, Dharmapa looked at the Living Buddha and said, "Master, where should I go?"

The Living Buddha waved his hand and said, "Go wherever you want to go."

After saying this, he continued to walk forward without pausing, and soon arrived at the emperor's bedroom. At this time, the eunuch kneeling outside said, "Living Buddha, His Majesty has just fallen asleep."

The Living Buddha said, "Well, if he has any dissatisfaction, he can come to me."

The Living Buddha said something inexplicable and the eunuch was confused, not knowing what this was talking about.

However, the Living Buddha did not explain anything to him, but turned and left. Not long after he left, the emperor's voice was heard from the palace.

"How long did Dharmapa kneel?"

"Your Majesty, from Chou Hour to Mao Hour, it is about three hours."

"Humph, in just three hours, is he trying to atone for his sins? He has put me in danger. It would be too easy for me to kill him!"

"Your Majesty is right, but the Living Buddha just let him go on his own, and it seems that he didn't punish him!"

"Humph!"

The emperor snorted heavily after hearing this, and was very dissatisfied, but no one dared to say anything. Then the emperor snorted angrily: "If it weren't for the Living Buddha's disciple, I would have chopped off his head!"

After hearing this, the eunuchs serving in the palace did not dare to reply.

That’s right, if he was not a disciple of the Living Buddha, others would have chopped off his head, but since he was a disciple of the Living Buddha, everything was different.

No matter how dissatisfied the emperor was, he dared not get angry.

At this time he could only snort heavily, and the young eunuch kneeling outside finally understood what the Living Buddha meant.

It turned out that the Living Buddha knew that Your Majesty had not slept since early morning, and he said this for Your Majesty to hear.

Thinking of this, the young eunuch looked at the Living Buddha's back and felt that his back became taller and taller. He knew what was going on inside the door through the door. It was truly a godly method.

The Living Buddha went back to his hometown for retirement, and at this time Dharmapa walked out of the palace and came to the square outside the palace.

At this time, a guard rushed up to him and said, "Master Dharmapa."

Dharmapa looked at him for a moment, and the guard looked at him and said, "Master, Prime Minister..."

Dharmapa stopped immediately upon hearing this, looked at the guards and said, "Tell your prime minister that I don't want to be involved in his affairs anymore, and don't come looking for me again."

After saying this, Dharmapa wanted to leave, but the guard said, "Master, please stay."

Hearing this, Dharmapa looked at the guard and asked, "Anything else?"

Upon hearing this, the guard looked at Dharmapa and said, "Prime Minister, let me give this to you."

After that, the guard brought an envelope to Dharmaba. Dharmaba looked at the envelope and frowned, but still took it. As soon as he opened it, he saw half a coin fallen.

Damoba was stunned, because this half coin was a promise he made when he was a wanderer at Mulan Ranch.

He was about to starve to death on the grassland. At this time, an old man from Mulan saved him with a bowl of mare's milk, gave him a lot of dry food, and pointed him in the right direction to the Living Buddha Bashiba who was still preaching on the grassland.

They gave me a chance to be reborn. At that time, I was grateful for the help from this family, so I cut the only copper coin I had into two halves with a knife, kept one half for myself and gave the other half to the old man's family.

He also promised that in the future, as long as the old man's descendants came to him with this copper coin, he would promise to do something for him, no matter how difficult it was.

Tuotuo is the descendant of that family, and the meaning of him taking out this coin is very simple.

Tuotuo is trying to repay his gratitude.

Dharmaba sighed, debts of favor must be repaid.

Dharmaba thought about it and took out the letter that Tuotuo wrote to him. There was no mention of what Dharmaba was going to do in the letter. Ninety percent of the letter was about how the person had saved his life. Although there was not a single word asking him to repay the favor, Dharmaba saw that the whole letter was about this matter!

Pay off the debt!
It is hard to repay a debt of favor. How could Dharmapa not know this?
After reading the entire letter, it was only mentioned at the end that Tuotuo was now in a life-and-death crisis, and Hama was going to harm him this time. Tuotuo even said this in a tone of entrusting his son to his care at the end of the letter.

"I know that Master has helped me a lot. I don't want to trouble Master this time. I will return this copper coin today. If Tuotuo is alive or dead, please take good care of Tuotuo's family. When Tuotuo dies, I can give an explanation to my grandfather. The young man he saved can now protect his family!"

Looking at the letter in front of him, Dharmaba is not stupid, and he doesn't want to pretend to be stupid. How could he not know Tuotuo's true thoughts?

So he smiled bitterly and said, "I will repay the kindness of a meal in ten years. I am one of the few good people in the world. Why does the master say that I am just an ordinary person?"

Thinking of this, Dharmapa looked at the guard beside him and asked, "Where is Hama's carriage?"

After hearing this, the guard immediately responded, "It should be between ten and fifteen miles southeast of the city!"

It takes time for the information to reach Tuotuo and then from Tuotuo to Damaba, and it is impossible for Hama to wait for Damaba during this time. They will definitely move forward. According to this speed, Hama should be between ten and fifteen miles away from the city.

After hearing this, Dharmaba looked at the guard and said, "Go back and report to your master. I will take back this copper coin. From now on, we are no longer friends. As for Hama, I will take care of it for him."

Upon hearing this, the guard immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Master. I will go right away."

The guards left in a hurry. Dharmaba looked at the most common Taizu Tongbao in his hand, then squeezed it hard. Then the half copper coin in front of him deformed directly, and then after being rubbed by him, it finally became a copper crumb, which he then threw directly to the ground.

From then on, he repaid the favor he had done to Tuotuo!
At this time, Dharmaba looked back in the direction of the palace. He didn't know if his behavior was right or not. He subconsciously wanted to find his master, the backbone, but his master did not exist.

It was unknown how long it had been before Dharmapa remembered what his master had said to him.

“Be true to yourself.”

The so-called true self should be to do whatever you want. Thinking of this, Dharmapa made a Buddhist salute in the direction of the palace and then went straight out of the imperial city.

The news soon spread to the inner court of the imperial palace. When the emperor heard from his men that Dharmapa had left the palace, he was so angry that he smashed his tea bowl.

"How can this be possible? Does he still take me seriously? Does he take me seriously?"

The emperor was furious, and all the palace servants around him advised him, "Your Majesty, calm down, calm down."

At this time, Bashiba, who was sitting cross-legged in the palace and chanting Buddhist scriptures, slowly opened his eyes, looked in the direction of the palace gate, and then closed his eyes.

Don’t take all this to heart. Everything has its fate and everything has its destination.

Amitabha!
At this time, the capital's Caishikou was crowded with people. Countless people gathered around the execution platform, ready to watch the court execute the remnants of the Ming Cult, Han Shantong's descendant, the Little Ming King.

At this time, there were crowds of people. It is said that watching a beheading is like a big drama. In this era of scarce entertainment information, watching a beheading live is enough to attract the bored people of this era.

Especially since the one killed today was the famous Zoroastrian Little Ming King, the man who was famous all over the world, it attracted countless people.

At this time, there was a throne placed on the execution platform, and sitting on it was the Prime Minister of this dynasty, Tuotuo. Tuotuo sat there, looking as steady as an old dog on the surface, but a little flustered in his heart, wondering whether Dharmaba would agree to his request.

What he fears most now is Hama. As long as Hama dies on the road, he will be the only one in power in the court. Even if the emperor is dissatisfied with him and wants to replace him, it will not happen overnight. Therefore, he is very confident about this.

Therefore, the victory of today's battle lies in Dharmapa.

Tuotuo was thinking that someone would report news from the execution ground to him from time to time.

For example, if he found that several gangsters were ready to rob the execution ground, after hearing this, Tuotuo laughed immediately, thinking, "Wow, there are still stupid thieves who want to rob the execution ground and save the little Ming King at this time."

Tuotuo thought for a while and said, "Don't touch them yet. Let them rob. Let them rob openly."

Tuotuo originally felt that this execution ground was lacking something, but now it was interesting with these people robbing the execution ground. After all, when the young Ming King was killed, how could the Zoroastrians not come to rob the execution ground? If they were allowed to kill him so easily, it would become a flaw.

After realizing this, Tuotuo immediately asked his men to make way for these dear people in the martial arts world, so that they could rob openly and make a big noise. After all, there were not many fools like him.

Tuotuo is not talking nonsense. These people from the underworld who want to rob the execution ground are definitely fools.

Moreover, their identities were definitely not those of the Red Turban Army, because the Red Turban Army already knew that the little Ming King had been rescued, so they had already withdrawn by then.

Those who did not run away and instead wanted to rob the execution ground and become famous were obviously a group of marginal people in the underworld who had no connection with the Zoroastrianism at all.

If they knew a small leader of the Zoroastrianism, it would be impossible for them to stand up and rescue the execution ground at this time.

At this time, Tuotuo had a slight smile on his face. This was a good news after a series of blows. Although the good news was not big, it was enough to make Tuotuo feel a little relieved.

At this time, Tuotuo gave orders, asking everyone to take good care of these gangsters who were going to rob the execution ground, and never let them be discovered by the officers and soldiers on duty.

If they start to make a fuss later, try to let them in, even if it’s best if they almost hit the scaffold!
After Tuotuo finished saying all this, everyone suddenly realized that Lord Tuotuo wanted to treat these people as Zoroastrians.

The men responded immediately.

At this time, a group of fast horses came from the direction of the palace. Soon the horses came to them and then to Tuotuo. When Tuotuo saw him coming, he never took his eyes off him, because he knew that the visitors must have brought him the news that he cared about most.

Soon the man came to Tuotuo and was about to salute, but Tuotuo said, "No thanks, how about that?"

After hearing this, the man said, "Master Dharmapa has agreed to help, and when I came here, I saw that the master had already left the city."

"call!"

After hearing this, Tutuo let out a breath and relaxed immediately. It worked. Now that Dharmaba had taken action, Tutuo didn't think anyone could stop him.

After all, the Zoroastrianism's goal had been achieved. He had received news that Liu Futong and Fang Guozhen had left Dadu and parted ways in Hebei. Liu Futong went west to Guangmingding.

At this time, Fang Guozhen went straight to the South China Sea, and returned in a hurry, as if he had something urgent to do.

But now there is no one near Dadu who can resist Dharmaba. So no one can protect Hama from the hands of Dharmaba, the second level of the Melting God.

As long as Hama died, no one would be able to speak to the emperor, and the emperor would have other people around him.

snort!
Tuotuo's face was full of disdain. Almost all the people in the palace had been corrupted by him. If it weren't for the Living Buddha's suppression, he wouldn't have needed so much nonsense. He would have just made a call for a palace coup and then appointed another young emperor to act as regent.

But now that there is a living Buddha, it is difficult for him to interfere with the emperor's power. He has no choice but to use this method. As long as the emperor does not have solid evidence, he can't do anything to him.

The Living Buddha cannot be easily checked. At present, the Living Buddha is actually supporting the imperial power. As long as he does not interfere with the imperial power, he is too lazy to touch himself.

Therefore, as long as Hama dies now, the emperor will never be able to hear the truth. By then, he will have room to reduce the power of the princes with his own means. Prince Ruyang said that he would fight with him to the end, so he would like to see how he is going to fight with him to the end!
Tuotuo was in a good mood thinking about it, but the messenger beside him did not leave. Tuotuo looked at him and asked, "Anything else?"

The messenger was silent for a moment, then he said, "Sir, Master Dharmapa had something to tell you before he left."

After hearing this, Tuotuo looked at the messenger and asked, "What?"

The messenger hesitated for a moment and said, "Master Dharmapa said that from now on, we will no longer have any feelings for each other..."

After hearing the words of the messenger, Tuotuo sighed, then waved his hand with regret. He was not feeling sentimental about the kindness between himself and Dharmaba, but was feeling sad that he had not expected to play such an important card because of this incident.

After thinking about this, Tuotuo felt very heavy.

I don’t know how long it took before Tuotuo recovered and said twice: “What a pity, what a pity~”

Although this favor was cut off, Tuotuo felt it was worth it because it would very likely help him preserve his power and status!

Isn't favor something that is meant to be used?
Useless favors are just garbage.

Tuotuo has always felt this way.

……

It was a sunny morning, and many passers-by were on their way. Some were carrying shoulder poles, preparing to go into the city to sell their fresh cabbages, and some were going into the city to visit relatives and friends. Ordinary people in this era were still very isolated from news, even though the capital was already in flames.

But it was a long time before the common people knew about it.

Just like this, a group of people were walking on the road, but at this moment they suddenly heard a loud gong sound.

when!
"When the Right Prime Minister is out, stay away!"

when!
"When the Right Prime Minister is out, stay away!"

when!
The sound of gongs was deafening, and soon after, a rather imposing team was seen waking up on the road. Across the entire continent, the sound of gongs led the way, followed by a team holding signs asking them to stay away, and in the middle was a rather imposing sedan chair carried by eight people.

Such a grand scene could only be witnessed by the royal family in the imperial city.

At this time, Hama, who was sitting in the sedan chair, was a little nervous, because according to his understanding, his grand display would definitely not be able to stop Tuotuo's investigation. And if Tuotuo discovered his movements, Tuotuo would definitely not give up easily.

They will definitely intercept me on the way here, and they might even send experts to come.

If things go wrong, you might lose your life on the road.

This is also the reason why he hesitated to return to Beijing, because if things go wrong, this might mean they will be separated forever.

Hama said nervously to Wang Baobao who was accompanying him: "My dear nephew, this road is not safe. I'm afraid Tuotuo will send people to kill us."

Wang Baobao said: "Don't worry, old man. We have made all the necessary preparations and will never let anything happen to you."

After hearing this, Hama said, "It's better to be careful. Tuotuo is very cruel and ruthless. He knows that I will return to Beijing and will definitely kill me at all costs, so you must protect me."

Wang Baobao said: "Don't worry, old man, we will definitely take good care of you."

Hama felt relieved after hearing this. At this time, Wang Baobao took a few steps back and came into the crowd. Chen Jie followed the crowd and said, "How about it? Are you sure? I suspect Tuotuo will send someone to kill us."

Chen Jie said: "Don't doubt it, I am Tuotuo and will definitely send someone to kill us, and the person he sends is none other than the second level of the Melting God Dharmaba."

"The second level of the Melting God, can you fight him?"

Chen Jie laughed and said, "I couldn't do it before, but now..."

Wang Baobao asked: "Can we do it now?"

Chen Jie said: "No!"

"That!"

Wang Baobao was just about to speak when he suddenly heard a loud bang in front of him, followed by a man falling from the sky to the ground. Suddenly, countless dust flew up from the ground. When the dust settled, a monk was seen blocking the team.

"Amitabha, everyone stop!"

Hearing the noise, the team stopped immediately. Then Hama lifted the curtain and saw Dharmaba, and his face suddenly changed.

Dharmapa also saw Wang Baobao at this time, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. He said, "Amitabha, old donor Hama, I'm sorry, someone wants to buy your life!"

After he finished speaking, Dharmapa slapped Hama with his palm. Hama was shocked and shouted, "Help me!"

At this critical moment, a man appeared in front of Hama and blocked Dharmaba's attack.

"Master, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
