"If Deacon Ruan didn't say it, I would have almost forgotten about Deacon Ding.”Incense Master Li was terrified and frowned.
The others looked at Incense Master Li curiously.
They didn't know why.
Looking at the dazed group, Incense Master Li said solemnly,""The outside world is saying that it was Deacon Li who betrayed us, but we already know that it wasn't Deacon Li who betrayed us.”
"Let me give you an example. If the one who betrayed us is really like what Deacon Li said just now, what if it was Ding Mo?”
"Impossible. Ding Mo and Pan Juhua had a grudge against each other for killing their father. How could he have joined the Imperial Court?”Li Yuehong immediately retorted.
"I'm just making an example. If Ding Mo is now a member of the imperial court, then it would be a disaster for the Heaven and Earth Society brothers in the nearby counties.”
"Moreover, to put it bluntly, Yangzhou Prefecture Magistrate Pan Juhua is already dead.”
At this point, the people who were doing it were not fools. They instantly understood what Incense Master Li wanted to express.
"But…Ding Mo wouldn't betray the Heaven and Earth Society!”Li Yuehong stuttered as she retorted. She was no longer as confident as she was at the beginning.
" On the contrary, if Ding Mo hadn't betrayed the Heaven and Earth Society, he would be the only surviving member of the Heaven and Earth Society in Yangzhou. The other members of the Heaven and Earth Society in the nearby counties would definitely contact him, and that might not be a good thing for the Heaven and Earth Society. It's possible that they would all be killed in Yangzhou City by Ao Bai's scheme.”Incense Master Li's expression became more and more solemn. She frowned."So, let's think of a way to spread the news.”
The others nodded in agreement and gathered together to discuss how to spread the news.
On the other side…
In the study room, Ao Bai fell asleep comfortably under the gentle massage of Xue Ying.
Xue Ying looked at the sleeping Ao Bai with a gentle gaze. He reached out to stroke Ao Bai's firm face, but he was afraid of waking him up.
She stretched out her hand in a dilemma, but she retracted it hesitantly.
In the end, he left silently.
Outside the door, Yun Ying stood in the corridor, leaning against a red wooden pillar. He closed his eyes to rest. When he heard the sound, he opened his sharp eyes.
"Master, are you asleep?"
"Yes."
Xue Ying lightly nodded and softly said,""Sir, he might be too tired recently, so I don't want to disturb him. I want him to have a good sleep, not just today, but tomorrow as well.”
Yun Ying's eyes lit up. He straightened his body and nodded."I understand. Don't worry. Leave the rest to me.”
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute."
Xue Ying softly called out to Yun Ying. His tone was as cold as ice,""I don't want to wake you up, so don't make too big a move. Just take care of some people.”
"Force the others out of Yangzhou City.”
"Good!"
Yun Ying stopped in his tracks and did not turn around.""I understand. I won't disturb Milord.”
Yun Ying left the backyard and went to the front yard to gather the troops. He brought five of the Eight Banners Thirteen Eagles, a few hundred Yellow Banners, and the Yangzhou Commander-in-Chief.
Once again, they began to sweep through Yangzhou City.
Their goal was the Red Flower Society and the other dukes.
Meanwhile, in the capital, thousands of miles away from Yangzhou.
In the royal study of the palace.
Kang Xi sat on the dragon throne and looked at the six old men in the hall."My six beloved ministers, it seems that the traitor Oboi in the distant Yangzhou City has already learned of our plans and actions. It seems that we have to speed up.”
"Your Majesty, the assassination of Lord Huang from the Ministry of Works and Lord Shi from the Ministry of Personnel could have been done by that traitor Oboi, but it could also have been done by other forces, such as the San Fan Kingdom.”Minister of War Hua Yan stepped forward and said in a heavy voice,""Therefore, we can't just guard against that traitor Oboi. After all, if we don't get rid of the San Fan, it'll be a mess.”
"Lord Hua, I think you've been scared out of your wits.”Cui Jianzhong, the Minister of Justice, straightened his back and looked at Hua Yan with disdain. He said mockingly,"If you are afraid of death, then hand over the Ministry of War's Imperial Decree and let Hongyan take over.”
"Old Cui, don't slander me. When have I, Hua Yan, ever been afraid of that traitor Ao Bai?”Hua Yan blew his beard and glared at Cui Jianzhong, the Minister of Justice, with anger in his eyes."I'm just talking about the facts. Now that the San Fan has threatened the Emperor's country, we should get rid of the San Fan first, then kill that traitor Oboi.”
"My two colleagues, stop arguing. This is the royal study.”The Minister of Rites, Zhang Zhiping, said coldly,"This old minister also agrees with Lord Hua's words. The traitor Ao Bai is only in charge of one Bordered Yellow Flag. Even if Wanyan old man helps him, including Bordered Blue and Bordered Red, there are only four flags. I believe that the traitor Ao Bai would not dare to be too presumptuous.”
"This old minister also agrees with Sir Hua and Sir Zhang's suggestion. The Emperor can put aside the traitor Oboi and deal with the King of San Fan first.”The Minister of Revenue, Wang Hailun, also stepped forward and said loudly.
"You…are a bunch of cowardly people. You are not worthy of being subjects.”The Minister of Justice, Cui Jianzhong, threw an angry glare at Hua Yan, Zhang Zhiping, and Wang Hailun. He knelt on the ground and said to Kang Xi,"Emperor, don't listen to their nonsense. They are afraid.”
"Sigh!"
Kang Xi sighed helplessly and left the royal study listlessly.
"Let me think about it."
