Chapter Twenty-Six: The Flying News of the Capital
Anything, even if it's a good thing, is a bad thing if you don't find the right time to do it.
Zhu Qizhen rested for one night in the Daimyo's Mansion, and he was going to go north by boat.
This is the southernmost place he has traveled this time, and further south is Henan.
It's just that I never expected that Jingshi would have 800 miles to rush to hand over a letter to Zhu Qizhen.
Zhu Qizhen frowned violently when he saw it, took two deep breaths, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said secretly: "Wang Zhen does things, why is he so unreasonable?" ”
This letter was presented by Wang Zhi.
Cabinet ministers have a prerogative, which is tantric.
Not through the celebrant and supervisor, directly into the hands of the emperor.
When Zhu Qizhen saw this secret performance, he first felt an offended anger.
There is no other reason, just think about it, before Zhu Qizhen received Wang Zhimi's recital, Zhu Qizhen did not accept this matter, any of the twists.
Although Zhu Qizhen is outside, it is impossible to send all the folds to Zhu Qizhen, so they are all catalogs and abridgements sent to Zhu Qizhen, and there are also a few issues that Zhu Qizhen is particularly concerned about.
But Wang Zhen obviously concealed some twists and turns about this matter.
Zhu Qizhen can tolerate other things, but this one thing, Zhu Qizhen will never tolerate it.
Although there is a Jinyi Weidong Factory, the secret service cannot replace the administrative agency. Therefore, his biggest news channel is still hundreds of officials, as well as summoning ministers.
This channel is pinched in the hands of the celebrant.
And Ma Shun, the commander of Jinyiwei, had a close relationship with Wang Zhen. Kim Young is already very marginalized in the palace.
If it weren't for Zhu Qizhen, he felt that Wang Zhen was kind. Zhu Qizhen couldn't bear it anymore.
Zhu Qizhen said: "Pass the order, leave the foot soldiers, and the rest of the people follow me back to Beijing." ”
I don't know if Zhu Qizhen can go into battle with a bow horse, but it is okay to ride back to Beijing from here.
And what made Zhu Qizhen angry was what happened.
Pull back the time to when Zhu Qizhen went out of Beijing.
After Wang Zhen sent Zhu Qizhen out of Beijing, he immediately called Ma Shun over to discuss secretly.
Wang Zhen gently sipped the tea and said, "What happened to you about this matter?" ”
Ma Shun said: "Father-in-law, this matter, the lower officials have been paying attention to it, and the minister is sure that this spy is in the East Factory." ”
Wang Zhen suddenly smiled and said, "What I want is your sentence." Auspicious. ”
Cao Jixiang immediately stood up from the side and said, "Godfather, the child is here." ”
Wang Zhen said: "You heard clearly, in the East Factory. ”
Cao Jixiang said: "The child understands that it is the East Factory. ”

Shun suddenly felt bad, he felt that in the East Factory, he made a judgment based on a lot of information. It is impossible to have the emperor around. After all, the emperor's side has always been the top priority, don't think that the eunuchs in the palace have the opportunity to meet the emperor.
Ma Shun circled the crowd and felt that the East Factory was the most likely, after all, although the East Factory and Jinyiwei were two yamen, there were many personnel circulating in these two yamen. Moreover, the East Factory itself has the task of monitoring Jinyiwei.
It's all too easy to know something within this intelligence system.
But Ma Shun heard that the East Factory that Wang Zhen said was different. Although he said that it was Dongchang, he insisted on Jin Ying.
Ma Shun also knew the situation in the palace.
There are three mountains in the palace now, the first hill is Wang Zhen, Wang Zhen with the help of the emperor's might, no one can compete, the second is Jin Ying, although the empress dowager is gone, but Jin Ying is also an old man, and he was also in charge of the celebrant back then. Holding Dongchang in his hands, although he can't fight against Wang Zhen, he still has the power to protect himself.
The third hill is the queen's.
The Empress Dowager left her team to the queen, especially some old female officials, who assisted the queen in managing the harem, and Wang Zhen couldn't and didn't dare to stretch out his hand. Of course, there are still a little bit of small forces that are not considered mountains, such as the people around King Yu, the people around the Queen Mother, Zhang Huan and other little eunuchs around Zhu Qizhen, these people will not even offend Wang Zhen and others, but they dare not offend Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhen and Jin Ying have been disagreeing with each other for a long time.
After Wang Zhen knew about this case, his first feeling was to use this case to kill Jin Ying.
After Ma Shun understood Wang Zhen's thoughts, he said cautiously: "Father-in-law, this is not good. ”
Wang Zhen smiled faintly and said, "What's wrong, since Your Majesty has explained, our family will naturally do a good job for Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Horse Commander. ”
When Ma Shun heard this, he immediately understood in his heart that Wang Zhen was dissatisfied with him. I didn't dare to say any more, and said: "The lower officials will do everything according to the will of the father-in-law." ”
It is true that Wang Zhen is a little dissatisfied with Ma Shun's desire to contact His Majesty by crossing him, which makes him want to control the East Factory in his hands, after all, Jin Yiwei is a foreign minister after all, and the East Factory is easy to use.
Ma Shun can only check step by step.
Since Wang Zhen wanted to take down Jin Ying, Ma Shun naturally investigated it very carefully, and was not even limited to this one thing, everything that Dongchang had done was turned out one by one. Regarding the things in the palace, Ma Shun didn't dare to ask in detail, but the things outside the palace had to be investigated carefully.
After all, at the beginning of Zhu Qizhen's ascension to the throne, because he had no real power, he paid great attention to Jinyi Weidong Factory, and asked them to set up hidden piles everywhere to investigate intelligence from the open and the secret.
There are so many things that are done outside the palace.
It can be said that anyone can find out the problem as long as they do things and use a magnifying glass to find faults
Come. Sometimes it's a mistake to step with your left foot first, and it's also a mistake to step with your right foot first.
Not to mention, those who really think that they are engaged in intelligence are clean and innocent.
Even though the officials of the Ming Dynasty are good, but according to the method of Jinyiwei, the real Ming Dynasty is only a few dozen people who can not make any mistakes at all.
A true moral gentleman.
Seeing this posture, Jin Ying didn't understand where Wang Zhen was going to investigate the case, but to investigate himself.
Seeing this, Jin Ying went to the queen first.
But Qian Wan'er doesn't know much about this, but she believes in Wang Zhen more, not only Wang Zhen is more respectful to her, but also the words left by Zhu Qizhen before he stayed.
So Qian Wan'er said: "Father-in-law Jin is a little calm, don't be impatient, and it's not too late to wait for His Majesty to come back." ”
What else could Jin Ying say, but he had a feeling that Wang Zhen would never let him wait for Zhu Qizhen to come back alive, and even if he could wait for Zhu Qizhen to come back, what could he do?
As long as Wang Zhen handles the case into an iron case. Even if Zhu Qizhen comes back, will he still be able to overturn the case for him?
Jin Ying thought about it, gritted his teeth, and said, "Now it can only be like this." ”
After Jin Ying went back, she dressed up in disguise and went over the wall to Yang Pu's house at night.
Yang Pu's house is very cold, but a courtyard house is still a house given by the first emperor, and it was the house of Yang Pu, who was still a bachelor of Hanlin at that time. Later, after he was promoted, Youji wanted to change him.
But Yang Pu said that the population of his family is simple, so there is no need to change it.
He didn't stay with Yang Pu's family, there was only one old servant by his side, and a few descendants brought from his hometown. There were no guards, but the house was so close to the palace that no one dared to commit murder here.
Jin Ying's sudden arrival startled Yang Pu. However, when he saw that it was Kim Young, he immediately sniffed the opportunity.
Jin Ying also served as a celebrant and eunuch in the Xuanzong Dynasty and dealt with Yang Pu.
Yang Pu asked with a little knowingness, and said, "Father-in-law Jin, why did you come here late at night?" ”
Jin Ying immediately knelt on the ground, took a few steps on his knees, protected Yang Pu's thigh and said, "Yang Gong help, Yang Gong help." ”
Yang Pu hurriedly helped Jin Ying up and said, "Father-in-law Jin is an old man, he has something to say, something to say." ”
Jin Ying told all the things in the palace
Yang Pu heard that the divine light in his eyes gathered slightly, obviously in a trance. To be honest, Yang Pu has information and intelligence channels in the palace, but Yang Pu is a foreign minister no matter what he says, and he doesn't dare to go too far.
Therefore, the news that Yang Pu can hear is also general news, and Yang Pu really doesn't know this kind of inside story.
Jin Ying said: "Yang Gong helps, Wang Zhenna, this time it is not to investigate the case at all, it is to use this to put a certain family to death, for the sake of the past situation, Yang Gong will save my life." ”
