Great Blue Night Watchman

Tianji Temple, the royal family personally granted the temple its name, and personally bestowed the temple's location. It is closely related to the royal family. Why should I listen to you, the Marquis of Dingzhou, to be transferred?

Qu Wendong said: "Tianji Temple, Royal Temple, without the orders of the royal family, who can mobilize them?"

"Children of the royal family? Who?" Lin Su said.

"Third Prince!" Qu Wendong said: "The Third Prince controls the Dingzhou Marquis Mansion. In fact, most of the Marquis Mansion's properties belong to him. He relies on the money brought by these properties to recruit people and compete with the prince."

Another third prince appears!

The third prince is no ordinary prince, he is a prince who can compete with the prince!

This person is extremely resourceful, extremely ambitious, and extremely skillful...

Everyone knows that after a hundred years in the future, only two people have the hope to become the new emperor, and that is the prince or the third prince...

The prince had the right time, place and people, and he also had the power of being a prince.

The fact that the third prince was able to compete with the prince was enough to show how terrifying this person was.

Qu Wendong exhaled softly: "Currently, no one in the Qu family knows the secret recipe for printing and dyeing. The previous ingredients in the printing and dyeing factory have been used up and work has stopped. That's why I urgently asked Zhe'er to find you."

Lin Su nodded: "This is easy! I will write another secret recipe for you!"

He walked to the desk, picked up a pen, wrote down the secret recipe, and handed it to Qu Wendong.

The first thing was solved successfully.

Qu Wendong took the secret recipe, read it over, and remembered it completely. With his hands together, the secret recipe was destroyed. This time, he did not choose anyone to inherit the secret recipe, but made it himself.

Qu He's death still stung him.

The opponent is too powerful. It is not safe for anyone in the Qu family to hold the secret recipe. He is the only one who can keep it personally!

If you want to get the secret recipe, kill me if you can!

This is the old man's decision.

Lin Su held the teacup in his hand, and the teacup rotated gently in his hand. His eyes flickered slightly: "Tianjiguan, Marquis of Dingzhou, does the old man have any countermeasures?"

Qu Wendong was shocked...

Behind the Marquis of Dingzhou stands the Third Prince. It itself is the Third Prince's money bag. The Tianji Temple is even more amazing. It is basically the stronghold of His Majesty the Emperor himself. What strategies can be used to deal with such a force? You should be lucky to have escaped their murderous hands. Even if Qu He's death is painful, the secret recipe has not been lost after all...

Lin Su slowly shook his head: "The other party's forces are intertwined, and the target of the attack is very clear. Under such circumstances, if we are suppressed and still hold our noses and admit it, the other party will only advance step by step, and eventually we will have no way to retreat! There is only one way to make them restrain themselves."

"You said it!" Qu Wendong said.

"I want them to learn a painful lesson every time they attack! If he kills one of me, I will destroy his century-old foundation. Only in this way can we stop the chaos with force!"

Destroy his century-old legacy?

The Qu family's hearts were pounding...

Lin Su put down the tea cup and stretched out two fingers...

The Deng family of Dingzhou Marquis was just an idle marquis with no official position. He had two fulcrums, one was the silk weaving industry, and the other was Huanyi (necessities such as washing clothes and bathing). One hand sold clothes and the other washed clothes. Clothes are also a one-stop industry. In the silk weaving industry, he has basically become a third-rate player. Only Huanyi is left!

If we take away his piece of Huanyi's market, what will he have left?

He is just an empty shell of the Marquis!

Does it count as destroying his century-old foundation?

Qu Wendong frowned: "Of course it counts, but how to capture it? Deng Nan has a close relationship with the Holy Land of the Monster Clan. He obtained the highest-end Lingzhi Saponite from the Monster Clan and made washing products that are exclusive to the imperial palace. He The family’s laundry supplies have dominated the capital for more than thirty years.”

Don't underestimate supplies such as laundry and bathing. Although they are not high-end in any case, they cannot be used in large quantities. There are tens of millions of people in the capital, how many sales are there? This alone brings millions of taels of silver to the prince's mansion every year!

There are also many people who have thought about getting involved in this field, but they have all failed.

There are two main reasons, one is raw materials, and the other is reputation.

Deng Nan's hometown is very close to the Holy Land of the Monster Clan, and his relationship with the Monster Clan can be traced back to his grandfather's time. He can get high-end materials that others cannot get, which is the key.

Secondly, people have inertia in using various products. Once word-of-mouth has gained, it is difficult for other products to enter. Of course, if strong political forces intervene, this inertia can also be broken. The problem is that political forces are also on their side. there……

Therefore, Deng Nan has a monopoly on the laundry business in Beijing. It seems to be the lowest-end industry, but it is steadily delivering huge wealth.

Lin Su stretched out his hand and took out two pieces of soap: "Look, this is the latest product I developed. Can it crush his original soap locusts?"

Qu Wendong and Qu Zhe came together, touched and smelled, and were all surprised. Is this a place for washing clothes and taking a bath? It smelled so good that I thought it was snacks...

When tested on site, both of them were shocked.

The foam in the laundry is unparalleled, the effect is unparalleled, and the feel is unparalleled. There is no problem of washing hands hurting the hands, and the nose inhales the fragrant scent. Washing clothes and taking a bath have become a pleasure. …

"Brother Lin, is this another technical crushing?"

"Exactly! The laundry revolution is about to begin! I didn't plan to cause a storm in the capital so soon. Since he is looking for death, let's help him!"

The eyes of the two Qu family members were all bright!

For Lin Su's new technology, the two of them already have enough immunity. There is no need to ask more questions or doubt, they can just do it!

"As for Tianji Guan!" Lin Su threw out another important bargaining chip: "We can't treat it in the conventional way. Let's do this, half a month! Within half a month, I will make it disappear!"

Qu Wendong was shocked: "Half a month? Wiped down to ashes? No! Don't be so impulsive! There are countless masters of Tianji Temple. Even if the Demon Emperor personally takes action, it is impossible to destroy it. Instead, it will cause fire and burn him. You need to know that the five great sects are connected with each other. We will never allow the majestic Dao Sect of the capital to be destroyed..."

Qu Zhe deeply agreed, Brother Lin, you probably don’t know that Tianji Temple is the face of Tianji Dao Sect. With this view, Tianji Dao Sect is the first Taoist sect in the world. It can be said that it would rather lose ten He is a watcher, and he will never let the Tianji Temple in the capital have any stigma. Don't think that the Tianji Taoist Sect is just a fortune teller. Their strength is unparalleled.

What's more, it is still a critical moment in the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism. Both parties are competing for believers. With this golden sign, the five ancient Dharma and Taoism schools can attract at least millions more believers every year. Think about it. How old is your son? If the Tianji Temple is damaged, it will be equivalent to a major earthquake in the Taoist sect. Even if the five sects are usually at odds with each other, at this critical moment, they will definitely stand together and jointly defend the Tianji Temple. If you take action against the Tianji Temple, you will be fighting against the entire Taoist sect. Let the war begin!

Qu Wendong took his grandson's words and added: Third Young Master, I know that you had a festival with Master Tianji of Tianji Temple in Xishan that day, but it is a major matter for the entire Taoist sect. You must not be impulsive. Once you become the opposite of the Taoist sect, the world will be ruined. Although you are big, you really have no place to stand...

Lin Su knew that both of them were right.

However, how can there be any absolutes in things in this world?

He said slowly: "Old man, Brother Zhe, please don't worry. I am not so arrogant as to challenge the entire Taoist sect on my own. However, if you do something wrong, you will eventually have to pay the price! You don't have to pay the price for the specific method. To participate, the old man only needs to tell me one top-secret thing, that’s it!”

Qu Wendong's beard trembled slightly, and Qu Zhe was at a loss...

Qu Wendong waved his hand gently and asked Qu Zhe to go out.

The study door closed, and Qu Wendong spoke: "What top-secret things do you want to know?"

"What I want to know is... Your Majesty, is there anything that is absolutely shameful to others? The kind that would kill even the nine tribes if you mention it!"

Qu Wendong held up the teacup, and suddenly there was a crack in the teacup in his palm.

With his literary training and many years of self-cultivation, he is so uneasy at the moment...

Lin Su looked at him quietly...

The study was silent.

After a long time, Qu Wendong slowly raised his head: "You want to use His Majesty's hand to destroy Tianji Temple!"

"yes!"

"You are extremely smart when it comes to the use of strategies, but you also need to know that there is never a solution. A sharp blade can hurt others, but it can also hurt yourself."

"Know!"

"Why does it have to be done?"

"Because we still have a lot to do. A prediction that must be accurate is in the hands of His Majesty for a long time. For us, the threat is too great!"

Qu Wendong felt clear-minded.

He didn't just take action against Tianji Guan just to vent his anger, he had a bigger plan!

As he said, there is a Tianji Temple in the capital, and the Tianji Temple's predictions are unparalleled in accuracy. This is a secret weapon in the hands of the emperor. This weapon does not show much effect on weekdays, but it is very useful at critical moments, just like The last time Bi Xuanji killed the Seventh Prince, Tianji Guan was able to pinpoint his position in the vast sea of ​​people and almost destroyed Bi Xuanji.

Such a view of heaven is too threatening to Lin Su, because he will eventually go against the royal family. With its existence, whatever Lin Su and the Qu family do, there is a pair of invisible eyes behind them, making them dare not do many things.

Use one move to destroy this secret weapon!

Even if it is somewhat dangerous, you must do it!

Qu Wendong stood up slowly, facing the window and looking at the high palace. Finally, he spoke. If there is anything that is absolutely taboo for His Majesty, it should be the old Jiangdong case five years ago...

Lin Su's eyes lit up. Before the palace examination that day, Qu Wendong had severely stopped him and not allowed him to mention the old Jiangdong case. He knew that this old Jiangdong case was extraordinary.

Qu Wendong's voice was very low, and only a wisp of sound was sent directly to Lin Su's ears...

Regarding the old Jiangdong case, your analysis that day was absolutely correct. The prince had no reason to rebel, but he did. Why? There is only one answer, he did not rebel at all!

At that time, I was still a close official of the Crown Prince. How had I ever heard of any plans for rebellion by the Crown Prince?

The late Emperor was in good health at the time, so was there any sign of sudden death? His death was done by my own hands...

He first slandered the prince and conspired to rebel. The ministers in the court confused right and wrong, and in a blink of an eye, they established the prince's rebellion as irrefutable evidence.

The late emperor did not believe it. Jinshang, who was still Prince Ning at the time, entered the palace with the prime minister late at night and had a secret conversation in the Zijin Pavilion. No one was present and no one knew what they talked about. But the next day, the late emperor died.

The late emperor died, the prince was killed, and the court was in chaos. The prime minister issued a decree to grant amnesty to the world. Qu Wendong was able to return to the court and was placed on the second level of the mourning hall. At that time, a chamberlain suddenly said something in the second level mourning hall. He said that His Majesty's face was golden and golden foam was coming from his mouth. Could it be that he had not yet died?

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked...

The chamberlain was beheaded at that time...

Qu Wendong and the other eight people who were in the second mourning hall at that time knew that there was something wrong with the death of the late emperor, but under the circumstances at the time, no one said it. Now that he has ascended the throne, he has also made it clear that the Jiangdong case will never be resolved. Mention it again.

As time passed, they gradually relaxed their vigilance.

But they underestimated Jinshang's determination. He did not eliminate all the people in the Second Mingtang at that time, because he did not have a stable foothold, and did not dare to face the joint resistance of nine great Confucian masters. After he had a firm foothold, he would settle the score with his wife. .

Seven of the nine people in the second mourning hall have been killed by their entire families.

Only the Qu family and the Lizhou Qi family were left.

The reasons on the table for the extermination of these five families have nothing to do with Jiangdong's old case of half a penny. But Qu Wendong's heart was like a mirror, and he knew that His Majesty was completely eliminating the insiders.

The Qu family retreated bravely, quitting the court, and the Qi family retreated into seclusion, all for one reason. They hoped to fade out of His Majesty's sight, reduce their sense of existence, and live an ignoble existence...

But they all also know that Jiangdong's old case is always a sharp sword hanging over their heads. No one knows whether the sword will fall, and no one knows in what way it will fall.

Lin Su's eyes flashed: "With a golden face and golden foam spitting out from the mouth, what kind of poison could it be?"

"Speaking of poison, let's talk about another person first..."

When the previous emperor was in power, there was a medicine girl in the harem, her surname was Li. She was a descendant of Medicine King Mountain in the northwest. She had no presence in the palace at first. But after the new emperor came to the throne, this girl skyrocketed and became the world-famous Concubine Li. , and Yaowang Mountain, there is a strange medicine called Chijin Pill, which was born out of the Buddhist Nirvana Pill. It is not as magical as the Nirvana Pill, but it is extremely domineering. This medicine is colorless and tasteless, and there is nothing to explain it. Once taken, it will penetrate The internal organs make the whole body turn golden, even the bones will be golden, and the person will be immortal for thousands of years...

Of course, this is just speculation, and no one has any real evidence.

There are many things that Lin Su has straightened out...

He finally knew what the old Jiangdong case was. It was indeed a case of rebellion, but it was not the case of the prince's rebellion that the world spread, but the case of the emperor's brother murdering his brother!

He also knew why Qu Wendong wanted to marry the Lin family. It was because he was facing His Majesty's butcher's knife that might fall at any moment. He looked around the court and couldn't find anyone who could help him. He could only look outside the court and follow him. The whole dynasty is in opposition, but there are forces that have a certain ability to protect themselves. The Lin family just fits the bill.

What a heinous act it is for the current emperor to kill his brother to seize the throne? Even the people in the mourning hall who were suspicious that day must be killed. This news is top secret! Who says who will die...

Great, exactly what I wanted!

Lin Su left the Qu family.

Zhang Haoran also came out of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and his new assignment was... the Ministry of Civil Affairs!

He jumped out of the center of power and was assigned to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, which had the most chores and the least presence.

What does the Ministry of Civil Affairs do?

It is a department closely related to the people.

Farming is under its control, water conservancy is under its control, and refugees are under its control.

Even though the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs has the same rank as other departments, he is not as good as other ministers. Why? You talk about farming and talk about being homeless. This is too low-level. Even those great scholars disdain to play with you...
