Chapter 485 Eating Imperial Grain "Jiaowutang" Although it is nominally an institution under the Ministry of Rites, because of its particularity, its location is not next to the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites, but is relatively close to the school field of the Ministry of War.The houses dedicated to the "Jiaowutang" and prepared for the lecturers are all original official buildings, which have been specially renovated and resettled.Especially the place where the "Demon Slaying Sword Immortal" Miao Xuzi and Xue Liang, the ancestor of the Xue family, live, although it is not very big, but the furniture and decorations inside can be regarded as precious, and the subordinates are also very complete, at least in terms of specifications, there is nothing to treat these two great masters slowly.At this time, Miao Xuzi was sitting and playing with Xue Liang in a pavilion, with a fruit plate and a tea tray next to him, but there was no one to serve, obviously he was deliberately retreated by the two, otherwise not to mention the servants and subordinates arranged by the imperial court, even the two of their own disciples and clansmen also followed to Beijing, and there was no situation where no one served."
What does this old monk mean......
Is it to deal with Wang Ge?
”Xue Liang twisted a chess piece in his hand, and he didn't fall for a long time, obviously his mind was not on the chess game.Miao Xuzi opposite him had a cold expression: "Is there anything strange that the old monk wants to deal with Wang Ge?"
”Since a few years ago, under the persecution of Wang Ge's various means, Miao Xuozi and Xue Liang had to give up their sects and families to go to the capital, and after entering the so-called "Jiaowutang" to sit in the town, there have been more and more masters of the rivers and lakes who have entered the "Jiaowutang" under their names.There are not only Shaolin abbot Master Wuzhen, senior monk Miaoshi, Tanyuan Temple abbot Master Zhihai, who is already close to Daoyan and Zhu Di, and even the two veteran grandmasters of the "Four Seas Dart Bureau" Qin Tianbai and Jiangnan Peng Qingpei, also accepted the invitation of the imperial court and went to the capital to "teach martial arts".Gradually, those who were invited to the "Martial Arts Hall" were not only grandmasters, but also almost all the super-first-class masters and first-class masters who were at the top of the list.Some of them stayed for five or six days, and some of them stayed for a month or two, and some even went directly to some yamen, ate the food of the officials, and became "adults".In such an overall environment, the people of the Wumeng and the Righteous Path believe that entering the capital to "teach martial arts" is a kind of recognition of their martial arts attainments by the officials, and even an honor, and they no longer feel that they are "bought" by the imperial court and become a "lackey" of the imperial court.So Miao Xuzi and Xue Liang, who were very disgusted and unwilling at the beginning, lived in the capital for a long time, and gradually lost their resistance.And after all, the capital is the political center of the entire Ming Dynasty, and it is one of the most prosperous cities, with their two great masters in charge, whether it is the Emei faction or the side branch business of the Xue family, it has developed very quickly, and it has developed well.Originally, the "Jiaowutang" only stipulated that the grandmaster could sit in charge for three months every year, and it was only symbolically "seated", and they were not forced to do anything.But in recent years, Miao Xuozi and Xue Liang can basically be said to have lived in the capital for a long time, and only occasionally returned to Emei or Xue's house.And they are no longer "forced" to symbolically "sit" in the identity, but have become the "worship" who really began to do things for the "Jiaowutang".They will do this, naturally because it is more beneficial to themselves, their sects, and their families.Without the pressure of the reputation of "taking refuge in the imperial court and being willing to be an eagle dog", it is needless to say what choices they have.However, even if they occasionally serve the imperial court, these Jianghu masters still have a very high "vigilance", for fear that they will be calculated by the imperial court.Xue Liang frowned and said, "Does the old monk want to 'borrow a knife to kill'?"
really dealt with Wang Ge, after Xingguo Gong came back, with his friendship with Wang Ge, as well as his consistent style of acting, I am afraid that Xingshi will ask for guilt......"
Miao Xuzi threw the chess pieces he was playing with into the chess urn, shook his head and said: "Hmph, Xue Lao, are you getting less and less guts?"
What can the kid surnamed Zhang do when he comes back?
This time, it's not just the two of us who have made a move, the East and West No. 2 Factories, Jinyiwei, and even the Ouchi masters have been dispatched, if he really dares to retaliate, what is the difference between it and rebellion?
”Xue Liang was still worried: "The old man still thinks this matter is weird......
"What's the matter, aren't you going?"
”"If you don't go, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it......"
"Then there's no need to talk so nonsense!"
Come on, you're doomed to lose this game!
”…… During this time, the East and West No. 2 Factories and Jinyiwei had many local strong cadres who were transferred back to Beijing, all of whom were outstanding in martial arts and strong in strength, and the worst were also quasi-first-class masters.The reason for summoning them back was to let them enter the "Martial Arts Hall" and accept the advice of the grandmaster.However, today, they were secretly summoned and said that they needed their assistance in arresting the relevant suspects involved in the assassination of Linjiang Hou.Most people didn't know the exact purpose, they just felt that there was an opportunity to make meritorious service and perform in front of Shangguan, and they were gearing up, but a few people who were subordinate to Dongchang knew that the goal of their trip was probably to deal with Wang Ge, the Marquis of Wu'an, who was still nominally supervising Dongchang.In a remote courtyard in the yamen of the East Investigation Factory, a short and black fat man was cleaning up his things in the house, while another middle-aged man who looked like a white scholar in the house was leaning against the door, looking at the darkening sky above the atrium outside, and frowned: "Old Ye, this time......
We're ......
Became a traitor, right?
”The short black and fat man Lao Ye paused as he cleaned up his things, but he didn't look back at his companions, and said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "We are always the emperor's food we eat, and we are the poor people who serve the Ming Dynasty."
The Governor has been kind to us, but what can we do if there is an order from above?
Wang Qiong, don't think about it so much, get ready, I estimate that there may be a big battle tonight. ”Lao Ye and Wang Qiong are both from the East Factory, and they are the people who were summoned into the East Factory by Wang Ge - or it can be said that the spies in the East Factory who are now in various places, except for the newcomers who have just been installed and parachuted, the others are recruited by Wang Ge.Not only that, but they all practiced Wang Ge's big and small innate divine skills, and now they even have the strength of quasi-first-class masters.And because of the particularity of their innate divine skills, they are now fighting with veteran first-class masters, and they are not left behind.With their original qualifications, let alone quasi-first-class masters, it is estimated that second-rate masters will not be able to get involved for most of their lives.To put it bluntly, Wang Ge can indeed be called their Bole.And because of their background, they know much more about today's actions than others, and they know that the suspect in the so-called assassination of the Marquis of Linjiang that they want to arrest is simply a pretense, and the real target is actually Wang Ge, the Marquis of Wu'an.
