In the Heavens

Chapter 127 - Their Calculations

In the living room, Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Master Fang Sheng, please have some tea!"

I don't know if it was intentional or accidental. When returning to the mountain, Li Mu happened to meet the visiting Master Fang Sheng.

They all collided, and they couldn't accept it. As for the people in the imperial court, they can only rely on the back.

After all, what people in the Jianghu pay attention to is reputation. If he abandons his fellow martial artists and ignores them, and goes to meet people in the court, it will not be good to spread his reputation.

Fang Sheng clasped his hands together, said "Amitabha", and then continued, "Thank you, President Li!"

I don't know what happened, but when he heard the words "Amitabha", Li Mu felt bad. According to past experience, the monk in front of him is probably not a good person.

Li Mu endured the discomfort, and asked without changing his face: "I don't know why Master Fang Sheng came to Huashan this time?"

Master Fang Sheng said with a sacred face: "Leader Li, I am here this time for the sake of the common people in the world."

"The common people in the world", Li Mu has been unable to complain. This word has long been played around. Guys who always talk about "the common people in the world" are usually not good ones.

If it wasn't for the other party representing the Shaolin Temple, he couldn't help but drag the monk in front of him out and beat him up.

"The common people in the world" is so great, how can a monk be able to represent it?

"Since it involves the common people in the world, then please feel free, Master, and Li will not stay any longer."

While talking, Li Mu served tea to see off the guests, as if he didn't see Fang Sheng's surprised face at all.

After all, Fang Sheng was used to seeing big scenes, Fang Sheng quickly reacted, said "Amitabha" as if nothing had happened, and then said: "Leader Li, I am here to find you this time."

Without morals, anything is possible. Faced with a monk who doesn't want to show off, Li Mu also had a terrible headache, knowing that he couldn't hide, he immediately asked: "Master, I'm afraid I made a mistake.

How could Li, a rough man, have the ability to involve the common people in the world? Master, let's find someone who can solve the problem, such as the two uninvited guests on my Huashan Mountain. "

Needless to say, Li Mu also knew that this was a game between Buddhism and the imperial court, and it might also involve disputes between the civil official group, the aristocratic family and the eunuch group.

Li Mu didn't have time to hide these things, so how could he take the initiative to mix them up?

If he jumped in foolishly and was used as a spear by these monks, wouldn't he be the most foolish in the world.

The more Li Mu didn't want to get involved, the more Fang Sheng wanted to drag him into trouble. According to the next plan of Shaolin Temple, it would be very difficult to succeed without the cooperation of Huashan Sect.

"President Li is too modest. Your Excellency is also..."

Before Fang Sheng could say the rest, Li Mu interrupted first: "The master is a visitor from afar, why don't you visit Huashan first.

Li still has something to do, so I will stay with you less. As for the major events of the common people in the world, everyone should go to the parties! As a martial artist, Li didn't get involved in it. "

After speaking, ignoring Fang Sheng's bitter face, Li Mu got up and left directly.

...

People can't help themselves in the Jianghu, even if they are full of depression, Li Mu has to bite the bullet and meet with the court duo.

"The two adults came from afar, and it was really wrong for Mr. Li to not come to greet them immediately. Now Mr. Li is punishing himself with tea instead of wine."

After speaking, Li Mu picked up the teacup and drank it down, as if he was really apologizing.

"Leader Li is being polite, the main reason is that the situation is urgent, so we have only been an uninvited guest once.

Master Yang, you know the situation best, so explain the situation to President Li! "

It can be seen that the eunuch in front of him is the one who decides in this duo. However, the coach is under the control of the military supervisor, which was also the norm in the Ming Dynasty.

What's more, the eunuch in front of him is one of the famous Eight Tigers. He has a great reputation in the ruling and opposition parties. Except for the cabinet members, ordinary civilian officials really dare not compete with him.

Yang Yiqing, who was dressed as a middle-aged scholar, bowed his hands to Zhang Yong and replied, "Okay, Mr. Zhang."

"President Li, you must have heard about the rebellion of King Anhua. We came here this time to quell the chaos..."

Li Mu frowned, and interrupted rather dissatisfied: "Master Yang may have made a mistake, people in the Taizu Yulu Jianghu are not allowed to participate in court disputes, and those who violate it will be punished.

King Anhua is a member of the royal family. This is a struggle for imperial power within the imperial court. How can we participate in it.

If it is for the purpose of calming chaos, unless Master Yang can get the imperial court to abolish Taizu Yulu, otherwise my Huashan faction will not get involved. "

I have to say that Lao Zhu considered many problems. A lot of various bans have been promulgated. Although most of them have survived in name only, no one dares to abolish them on the table.

In order not to disturb the circle of affairs, Li Mu decisively pulled out the old Zhuding vat, anyway, he didn't think the two people in front of him would dare to ignore Taizu Yulu blatantly.

Anyway, he is also an old fritter who has been mixed up in the officialdom, Yang Yiqing quickly reacted: "Leader Li misunderstood, and Yang, the great ancestor Yulu, naturally did not dare to offend.

When I came this time, I didn't want the Huashan faction to participate in the suppression of the rebellion.

Not long ago, we received information that someone from the Demon Cult had joined the rebel army. Eunuch Zhang and I came here because we hoped that the Huashan Sect would be able to eradicate the demons and defend the Dao, and sweep away the remnants of the demon sect. "

Li Mu rolled his eyes directly, and took action to attack the remnants of the Demon Sect among the rebels. What is the difference between helping the imperial court suppress the rebellion?

Eliminating demons and defending Taoism, it’s okay to use this word to fool Xiaobai in the rivers and lakes, but none of the old fritters knows what the essence of the dispute between good and evil is.

"Master Yang, since members of the Devil's Cult have participated in the rebel army, they have joined the struggle for imperial power, and they are no longer part of the Jianghu. Please forgive Li for being helpless in this matter."

War kills people, Li Mu is not a tough guy, he doesn't have enough benefits, just being complimented a few times, he leads his disciples to work for others.

Only a fool can make a good relationship with the court. Anyone with a little common sense knows how capable the old Zhu family is at crossing rivers and demolishing bridges.

If you really help the imperial court to suppress the rebellion, the probability of ushering in the imperial court's suppression is far greater than the probability of receiving the imperial court's support.

The reason is that the Huashan faction is too strong. Even if the court wants to support the spokesperson in the arena, it will definitely not choose such a big faction as Huashan.

Everyone is a smart person, a teacher who remembers the past and the future. With the lessons learned from the past, Li Mu will naturally not take the lives of thousands of members of his family to gamble on the integrity of the court.

Zhang Yong on the side spoke again: "Leader Li, don't rush to refuse.

As far as our family knows, your faction and the Devil's Cult have a deep hatred. If the members of the Devil's Cult are allowed to gain a firm foothold in the northwest, I'm afraid you will have a hard time too!

It would be better for us all to strike now and kill them in their infancy. After the rebellion is put down, the Northwest Wulin will be your family..."

"Elder-in-law, this cake is not delicious. It's just like Master Yang's idea of ​​garrisoning fields and Hetao to relieve the imperial court from the hardship of transporting food for thousands of miles.

But what is the final result?

In addition to the achievements on paper, the prestigious town of Ningxia was almost destroyed, and countless people in Gansu and Ningxia were displaced.

It is not for nothing that King Anhua raised the anti-flag this time and was able to toss the momentum of the present. "

Li Mu unceremoniously pierced the window paper.

It seems that this Ningxia mutiny and King Anhua's rebellion were caused by Liu Jin's disaster for the country, and the hidden dangers behind it had been buried deep a few years ago.

It cannot be said that the policy of garrisoning Ningxia is wrong, but reality and ideals always go against each other. In the face of continuous natural disasters, manpower is very vulnerable.

It is still only in the northwest. If the historical trajectory continues, none of the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty will be spared.

There was drought and no rain in the north, and continuous floods in the south. Finally, with the help of man-made disasters, the Ming Dynasty was swallowed up.

Now there are signs that the bureaucrats have come up with a bunch of seemingly correct policies for the sake of their own political achievements, completely ignoring the actual situation.

Yang Yiqing's face instantly collapsed. This is not an ordinary question, but a complete negation of him.

Frankly speaking, compared with his predecessors, Yang Yiqing has done a remarkable job and has contributed to perfecting the frontier defense. Tunning Ningxia has become a policy that harms the country and the people, mainly because God does not give face.

It's just this kind of thing that made him unable to tell a warrior.

Glancing at this famous official from the Zhengde Period, Li Mu sneered and said, "Master Yang, if you feel that Li is exaggerating, you might as well go for a walk among the people.

We Shengdou people, no matter what the starting point of you officials and lords is, we only recognize the final result. "

Li Mu had absolutely no confidence in the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty. The literati of the Ming Dynasty have undergone a transformation, and they are all stricter than others and more lenient than themselves.

No matter what trouble you caused, as long as you have a good intention, you can be forgiven. If someone else does it, no matter what the result is, it's all hiding evil intentions.

How can Li Mu like such a double-standard party?

The emperor was sprayed as if Jie Zhou was alive, and the ministers are still "famous ministers come forth in large numbers", which is the greatest irony in itself.

As if he had been greatly insulted, Yang Yiqing stood up angrily, pointed at Li Mu and was speechless for a while.

Zhang Yong on the side seemed to have seen through Li Mu's plan, and said directly: "Lord Yang calm down first."

"President Li, it's not a gentleman's act to provoke us so deliberately.

Ming people don't say dark words, we need your faction to ensure that there will be no problems in logistics and transportation for our counter-insurgency this time. If you have any conditions, leader Li will mention them! "

Li Mu was not annoyed when someone exposed him, and replied without changing his face: "Eunuch Zhang found the wrong person, and your logistics cannot be guaranteed by Mr. Li!

As far as I know, the problems you are facing this time are not only in the rivers and lakes, but also in the court.

Although he didn't know what roles the two played in it, but Li knew that if he got involved rashly, he would definitely be overwhelmed.

As a sect of Jianghu, my Huashan faction has always pursued my duty, never touching things that shouldn't be taken, and never mixing things that shouldn't be mixed.

If the two encounter the problem of insufficient supply of food and grass, they can purchase directly in Guanzhong. Once out of Guanzhong, Li will be helpless in the following matters.

By the way, I would like to remind you both that people from Shaolin Temple have also arrived at Mount Hua. As for what their purpose is, Li does not know for the time being, and does not want to know. "

A dead fellow Taoist will never die a poor Taoist. In order to reduce his own sense of existence, Li Mu decisively chose to sell—the enemy.

Unable to achieve the goal, Zhang Yong said with a gloomy face: "Thank you for the reminder, Leader Li, our family knows what to do.

For the issue of grain and grass, we will purchase in Guanzhong, just hope that there will be no accidents on the way. "

Add more, don't spray me. There have been too few activities recently, and my eyes are a little dizzy
