The nearest way from Jingshi to Phi Dao is to take the land route to Tianjin Wei first, and then take a boat.

Sitting in the carriage to Tianjin Wei, as his body tossed up and down, Wang Tiqian also closed his eyes and thought about the deep holy intention of the emperor to set up this capital prison mansion.

The post of Zuo Military Supervisor is equivalent to the general leader of the national military supervisors, although now only Datong, Xuanfu, Jizhen and Jiangnan have sent six military supervisors each.

But if the effect of these places is very good, presumably there will be more military supervisors in the future, and when the time comes, the position of this left military supervisor will be hot.

It is true that he relied on Wei Zhongxian to ascend the throne and was able to serve by the emperor's side.

But that's the good, and so is the bad.

Last time, he was beaten by the emperor because of this, so that he lost several front teeth, which was also due to Wei Zhongxian.

It seems that the emperor did not want to let himself and Wei Zhongxian have too close contacts.

He thought, after Wei Zhongxian relied on the Wei Dynasty and Wang An to ascend to the throne, didn't he also turn against these two?

Wei Zhongxian can use the Wei Dynasty to defeat Wang An, why can't I, Wang Tiqian, borrow him Wei Zhongxian and take the throne myself?

Thinking of this, Wang Tiqian was even more satisfied with the arrangements he made before leaving.

......

On the side of the Forbidden City, the matter of Wei Zhongxian and the henchman of the great eunuch Wang An, Wei Chao, making trouble with the celebrant has been spread very widely.

Because Zhu Youxiao dealt with it in a timely manner, it did not cause too much turmoil on the surface, and the palace people regarded it as a private chatter.

In the handling of this matter, Zhu Youxiao's attitude is very surprising.

The Wei Dynasty, who had served in the palace for many years, was actually sent directly to Fengyang to guard the emperor's mausoleum, and Wei Zhongxian, who cuckolded people first, was only lightly said.

Wang An naturally couldn't say anything dissatisfied with Zhu Youxiao, and his approach was the same as that of the Donglin Party - resignation.

Zhu Youxiao immediately smiled after receiving Wang An's resignation, this guy is using his resignation as a silent protest!

Zhu Youxiao shook his head, put his resignation aside, and said in his heart:

"Wang An, you still don't know, if I hadn't protected you, you would have been killed by Wei Zhongxian a long time ago!"

Where can you play with him!

On this day, Wei Zhongxian had just set the list of mine supervisors in various parts of Zhili, when he saw a little eunuch sneaking in.

This person he knew, it was Wang Tiqian's person.

Wei Zhongxian still remembers the incident of the warm pavilion last time, and Wang Tiqian didn't even say hello when he came out.

Since then, Wei Zhongxian has paid close attention to Wang Tiqian, and soon discovered that he was hiding from him.

Seeing the little eunuch come in, he waved everyone away, leaving only the Xu family by his side, and sneered: "Why, Wang Tiqian has been reused by the emperor and has become the left military supervisor, isn't it bullish!" ”

"What else are you doing with Bento?"

"Look at what you said, the prince can get this messenger, isn't it also you talking in front of the emperor!" Xiao Gelding smiled flatteringly, "The prince often says, I will never forget your kindness in the future~"

Hearing this, Wei Zhongxian snorted coldly a few times and asked, "Say, what's the matter, I know that he is now going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing." ”

The little gelding looked left and right twice, and finally landed on Xu, who was leaning forward and backward, and couldn't move his eyes for a while.

His woman was looked at like this, if it was a normal man, he would have been angry.

But Wei Zhongxian was not like this, but he was very happy, as if some deformed emotions in his heart had been satisfied.

He asked:

"What, think?"

The little eunuch swallowed his saliva, shook his head and said, "Don't dare, slaves don't dare..."

"Hahaha!" Wei Zhongxian suddenly laughed a few times, making the little eunuch and the second monk confused.

At this time, the little gelding came back to his senses and began to get down to business.

He leaned into Wei Zhongxian's ear and said in a tone that only the two of them could hear: "Factory Governor, don't you know that Wang An is resigning this time?" ”

Wei Zhongxian said: "The governor naturally knows that the emperor will not allow him, why are you mentioning this?" ”

Speaking of this, he took a closer look up and down at the little gelding.

"Factory Governor, what do you think, what time is it?"

Wei Zhongxian smiled in his heart, but he asked knowingly.

"When?"

Xiao Gelding said: "The emperor severely punished the Wei Dynasty, but he only said a few words to you, this is to continue to entrust you with important responsibilities!" ”

"And that Wang An is just an old eunuch who accompanies some old feelings, and the emperor has set up a capital prison mansion, and hundreds of officials have criticized him, which is the time of anger."

"Factory Governor, you think, then Wang An went to resign at this time, isn't he looking for death?"

The more Wei Zhongxian listened, the more evil he became, and after listening to it, his heart suddenly became clear, and his breath was sometimes rapid and sometimes slowed down.

After being silent for a long time, he suddenly asked:

"Where do you serve, how do you know so much?"

Xiao Gelding said: "The slave maid served in the clerical room at the beginning, and was protected by the prince, and now he has been transferred to the direct hall to serve as a small steward in the West Sixth Palace. ”

Wei Zhongxian saw that he didn't report his name, and he knew that this was Wang Tiqian's diehard loyalty, so he let go of the idea of recruiting his own people.

He waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can get busy." ”

"The slave and maid are retired—"

Looking at the direction in which the little eunuch left, Wei Zhongxian's face became gloomy again.

This time, the Governor finally has a chance to completely kill Wang An's old thing!

......

The next day, Zhu Youxiao sent Wei Zhongxian and Wang An'an to Xinuan Pavilion and asked them to confront them face to face.

"Wang An." Zhu Youxiao got up and turned his back to the two, picked up the saber on the wall, still gently stroked the blade of the sword with his hand, and said lightly:

"You are the old minister of the first emperor, and you are also the minister of my humerus, when the Li family moved the palace, you accompanied me and made great efforts for me."

As for this, Zhu Youxiao turned around, held the sword, and said:

"But you are also an outlaw member of the Donglin Party, ventilating and reporting the news, so that my edict cannot be issued immediately."

Zhu Youxiao stared at Wang An tightly and said, "I ask you, what Wei Zhongxian said, do you recognize it?" ”

Wang An was stunned, he had the same idea as Yang Lian when he handed in his resignation, which was also what Gao Panlong and others meant.

They didn't think that Zhu Youxiao would abandon the humerus old minister and choose a Wei Zhongxian.

Neither of them expected that Wei Zhongxian would get into it flexibly when he got a loophole, and went to the emperor's side to pout, and things became like this again.

How similar is this difficult situation to ride a tiger and Yang Lian was forced to do it at the beginning?

Wang An's hands were clenched tightly in the sleeves of his wide robe, and he pinched out the sweat on his palms, and his mouth was trembling, unable to speak.

He clearly saw a very decisive decision in Zhu Youxiao's eyes.

This question was provoked by Wei Zhongxian, but it was also thrown to him by Zhu Youxiao to answer.

Wang An was not stunned, he knew how difficult this answer was.

If he admits it, he will be confirmed to have fornicated with the Donglin Party, and the people of the Donglin Party will also be engraved with a charge of fornicating with the court.

When the time comes, the best outcome is also to hand over the seal of the celebrant himself.

Wei Zhongxian will completely control the inner court, and it will be even more difficult for the Donglin Party to fight against the "eunuch party".

But if he doesn't admit it, he stubbornly resists all the charges and goes to protect the Donglin Party, then the emperor will definitely be disappointed.

When the time comes, it will be the emperor who will be in trouble.

This multiple-choice question is Zhu Youxiao's last chance to give Wang An to abandon the Donglin Party.

Wei Zhongxian stared closely at Wang An's every move, while Zhu Youxiao sat back on the couch and stroked his sharp saber in silence.

If he chooses the wrong one, then I will be disappointed.
