My Pen Pal Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 229 Dark Night Murder

When night fell and the computer ran out of power, Zhao Hanzhong ordered people to put away all the instruments and equipment.

However, all the mountain people still gathered together, immersed in the magnificent scene, and were reluctant to disperse for a long time.

Everyone was discussing the contents of the documentary heatedly. Dao Han stood aside and did not participate in the discussion, but his heart was more excited than anyone else.

Others are envious of the Han people's powerful strength, and are proud to be a member of China. If the Han people are strong, the country will be strong, doesn't that mean they will be strong too?
They learned a new word today, country!
The Dai people are also members of the country of China!

However, Dao Han remembered Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. The phrase "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different species?" made him excited and his blood seemed to be about to burst out.

He thought of the chieftain Yan Wen, who, for his own selfish interests, ruthlessly exploited the people in the village, yet he remained firmly in the chieftain's position.

Just because his family has been chieftains and priests for generations, can he always be in a high and mighty position?
Why?
When Dao Han asked the three words "Why" in his heart, a bold idea came to his mind.

He wants to overthrow Yan Wen and avenge his mother!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Yan Wen. At this moment, Yan Wen was chatting with Zhao Hanzhong, but he looked quite uncomfortable. And next to him was the mysterious stranger who had entered the village not long ago!
Why would those two strangers pretend to be Yan Wen's guards?
Dao Han was puzzled, but after Yan Wen and Zhao Suozheng finished talking, he left the housekeeper to entertain Zhao Hanzhong and others for food and overnight, and then he hurried away with his guards.

This made him even more suspicious. Every time an official from the imperial court came to the village, Yan Wen would hold a grand banquet to entertain him. But this time, Yan Wen did not accompany them?

This is not common sense!
Could it be that Yan Wen has some unspeakable secret?

Watching Yan Wen leave, Dao Han hurriedly followed him secretly.

Yan Wen breathed a sigh of relief after bringing Li Cang and Ruan Chengping back home. The three of them were already sweating profusely and were soaked all over.

What they saw today was far beyond what they could have imagined, and Yan Wen couldn't suppress the fear in his heart.

He called the servants in the house, poured tea for them, and ordered them to guard the door and not allow anyone to disturb him. Then he said with lingering fear: "Master Li, Master Ruan, the Ming Dynasty court has such supernatural power that it is terrifying. I am afraid that this rebellion will fail!"

Li Cang took a deep breath, drank the tea in one gulp, and tried to regain his sanity.

At this time, Ruan Chengping said, "Although this wonder is miraculous, there is no need to worry. Lord Tusi, don't underestimate yourself. This is just an illusion!"

"Illusion?" Yan Wen looked at Ruan Chengping with some confusion, but Li Cang's eyes lit up and he immediately became alert.

"Uncle Ruan, please tell me in detail!"

"During the Song Dynasty in the Central Plains, four major books were written. One of them is called "Taiping Yulan". This "Taiping Yulan" is a collection of various books, divided into 55 parts and 550 chapters, compiled into a thousand volumes. The book covers the sky, the earth, people, and things, and it is all-encompassing.

It is recorded in "Taiping Yulan·Fangshu Department" that the King of Huainan liked alchemists and all of them showed their magic. Later, he drew rivers on the ground, made mountains by sucking up earth, made cold and heat by breathing, and made rain and dew by coughing. The king eventually left with all the alchemists.

It is this magic that can conjure up spring, summer, autumn, winter, mountains, rivers, and at first, I was also shocked by the wonders displayed by the Ming officials, but when I think about it carefully, it has long been recorded in the books of the Central Plains. It is just a trick of pretending to be a ghost. "

Ruan Chengping took a sip of tea, looked at the two of them, and continued, "This Ming court actually used this magic to deceive the people. It's really at its wit's end!"

"That's it, that's it!"

After hearing this, Yan Wen immediately showed a fierce look on his face, "This bastard is really hateful. He actually used such despicable means to buy people's hearts. Humph, who are they family members? I think they are just wishful thinking!"

"Master Tusi is right. The Han dogs have used shameless means to annex the ancient Dian Kingdom since the Han Dynasty. Now they even claim that they are one family with you. This is simply shameless to the extreme."

Li Cang sneered, making no effort to hide his disgust for the Ming court and the Han people.

"The ancient Dian land has suffered from the Han people for a long time. If you can start an uprising, you will raise a banner of resistance against the Ming Dynasty among the hundreds of tribes in ancient Dian. You will surely get a hundred responses and all the tribes will rise up to attack the Ming court! Master Tusi, think about it carefully. After overthrowing the rule of the Han people in Dian, you will be the emperor of this thousand-mile Dian Kingdom, and the first emperor who created the world!"

"Mr. Li, you can't say that. After all, I'm not the only chieftain. Didn't you go to the Nuosu tribe first?"

As he spoke, Yan Wen took out the letter from Li Cang from his arms. Although he hated the Ming court and wished that all Han people would die, he was not a fool. Could he become emperor by starting a rebellion?

There are many chieftains in Yunnan who are waiting to become emperor!

At this time, Ruan Chengping said: "That's why my son said that whoever is the first to start an uprising and rise up against the Ming court will be able to attract hundreds of people to respond. Then he is the first emperor!"

After hearing what Ruan Chengping said, Yan Wen was somewhat tempted. Everyone wants to be an emperor, so only those who have made great contributions can sit on the throne!

Who can claim the greatest credit? It is the first person to rise up against the tyranny of the Ming court!
"If I start a rebellion, what will happen to Annan, Master Li?"

"We in Annan have already made preparations to attack Laos. We can invade Laos at any time, and then go north to meet with you, the chieftain, and fight against the Ming court together!"

Li Cang said bluntly.

While several people in the house were having a secret conversation, they didn't know that someone was listening to every word of their conversation right under their feet.

The Dai tribes live in bamboo houses, which are not much different from the stilt houses built by the Miao people.

The so-called stilt house is divided into three floors. The first floor is the main structure of the stilt house supported by stilt columns, which is used to store sundries or imprison livestock. The second floor is used for living, and the third floor is used to store food.

What Yan Wen built was naturally the largest and most solid stilt house in the tribe, and the first floor was used for raising cattle.

At this time, Dao Han, taking advantage of the night, was pressing his body tightly against the bamboo board between the first and second floors. In this position, no one would notice him unless he made some noise on purpose.

The conversation between the people in the room made him break out in a cold sweat!
Those mysterious people are from Annan. Is Yan Wen colluding with them to rebel?

After the Ming court came, their people had just enjoyed a few days of peace. But Yan Wen was so cruel and crazy that he didn't care about the safety and lives of his people and wanted to rebel!

Could it be that Yan Wen colluded with the Annamites and fought against the Ming court because he could no longer collect taxes from his people?

After watching the documentary, he has deeply realized that he and his entire tribe are members of the big Chinese family.

Now that the war is over and the country is at peace, the current emperor is so compassionate to the people of Yunnan. As citizens of the Ming Dynasty, how can we allow Yan Wen to commit such a heinous crime?
He held his breath and continued to eavesdrop.

"Then when should we start the rebellion?" Yan Wen asked.

"In my opinion, tonight is the best time!" Ruan Chengping said in a deep voice.

"tonight?"

Not only Yan Wen was shocked, but even Li Cang looked at Ruan Chengping with astonishment.

“Is this too hasty?”

"No, we could have started the rebellion after making all the necessary preparations, but the arrival of that Ming court official is a perfect opportunity!"

Ruan Chengping continued to speak calmly, but his face showed a cold and murderous look!
