Chapter 70: The Emperor's Intent
After Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao went to the Terracotta Division in Dongcheng, they went directly to the Terracotta Division in other cities.
With Dongcheng taking the lead, the soldiers and horses in the other cities didn't waste much of their tongues.
After all, it was the prince's order to block the city gate, although it was inconsistent with the etiquette and law, but it was also for a reason, even if the above was guilty, there was also the prince on top, but if the gang of thieves took the princess out of the palace from the city gate under their jurisdiction, then they would not only be guilty of negligence, but would also offend the prince.
After solving the matter of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division blocking the city gate, Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao went directly to the Beizhen Fusi of Jinyiwei.
The commander Mu Bin doesn't know where he is now, and they can only try their luck there.
It's good to be able to find Mu Bin, but if you can't find someone, then you can only hope that the prince Yuqi can command the people who move the Jinyi Guard.
After all, Jinyiwei is different from the Five Cities Terracotta Division, the Five Cities Terracotta Division serves the imperial court, and the Jinyi Guard obeys only the emperor alone, which is completely free from the restrictions of the law.
Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao came out of the Soldiers and Horses Division in Beicheng when they met Mu Bin who came in a hurry.
Zhu Hou lit up the jade qi and took the lead and said: "Commander Mu, you came just in time, the provincial palace will go to Beizhen Fusi to look for you again, the jade qi is here, and the palace orders you to immediately send the Jinyi guard under your command to search for the whereabouts of the princess."
Mu Bin didn't see joy or anger on his face, and replied with a glance: "The minister has just come out of the Beizhen Fusi, and has sent out all the brocade guards in Beijing to search in the city, restaurants and inns, and even do door-to-door searches, focusing on girls under the age of seven and over five years old, in addition, the minister also ordered people to post the portrait of the princess, and anyone who provides the whereabouts of the princess will be rewarded with three hundred silver, and those who take the initiative to surrender will be punished lightly."
Mu Bin reported his arrangement, Zhu Houzhao accepted the jade deed, smiled with satisfaction, and said, "Excellent..."
Zhu Houzhao was talking, Xie Zhi thought of something, and then asked: "Commander Mu made such detailed arrangements, did he receive the news early?"
The jade deed was revealed, and Mu Bin talked eloquently about his arrangements, if he hadn't known the news earlier, how could he do this?
Xie Zhi's words attracted Zhu Houzhao's attention, and the guy immediately hurriedly said: "Commander Mu has already received the news, and the father and emperor also know?"
Don't look at the bullish coax when the Wucheng Terracotta Division and several yamen gave orders, he was full of confidence, but the worries in his heart were only known to him.
He issued an order with a jade deed, which was simply said to be concerned about Zhu Xiurong's safety, and if he said it big, it would be arrogance.
What is the purpose of trespassing as a prince? I can't get on the throne as soon as possible!
This can completely rise to the point of having bad intentions, turning his back on his father, and going up in great rebellion.
Zhu Houzhao was in a hurry, but Mu Bin still replied unhurriedly: "Your Highness and Xie Banyu received the news when they went to the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses, and after receiving the news, the minister entered the palace and told His Majesty about the matter."
What Mu Bin said was that he was not in a hurry, but Zhu Houzhao was impatient and asked, "What did my father say?"
Mu Bin was still not in a hurry, and said, "Your Majesty's dictation."
Since it is an oracle, there must always be an expression, Zhu Houzhao and Xie Zhi saluted together, arched their hands, and said, "Listen to the hadith."
Mu Bin said unhurriedly: "The prince and Xie Zhier immediately looked for the princess, Jinyiwei and the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division were temporarily dispatched by the prince, and although it was the best to find the princess, it was also necessary to ensure the smooth progress of the autumn festival."
Xie Zhi glanced at Zhu Houzhao, what does Emperor Hongzhi mean by this?
Today's few things, whether it is the loss of the princess or the private transfer of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, they are all very wrong, and they will not say anything if they don't see any criticism, and they even issued a decree to return the Jinyi Guard and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to Zhu Houzhao?
Zhu Houzhao, as the crown prince, has no right to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the five cities, but if Emperor Hongzhi extraordinarily sends down this decree, then it will be much more justified!
"Your Highness, thank you for reading, hurry up and find the princess."
Mu Bin reminded that Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao received the will in unison.
After receiving the order, Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao also borrowed a team of people from Mu Bin to join the search team.
Now the people in the city who are looking for Zhu Xiurong are not only the soldiers and horses of the five cities and the Jinyi Guard, but also the east and west factories and the Shuntianfu Yamen have been dispatched.
The entire streets and alleys of Beijing are full of official servants.
Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao's starting point for finding people is still in Dongcheng.
Zhu Xiurong was lost in Dongcheng, and after being lost, Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao dispatched the soldiers and horses of Dongcheng as quickly as possible, it was not easy for the gang of thieves to get out of the city, and it was not easy to transfer the hiding place.
And the first inn, just listen to the name to know, here is mainly for the reference of the people who enter Beijing to live.
After Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao broke in with a team of more than a dozen brocade guards, almost all of them were Confucian scholars with scarves.
These people gathered together in twos and threes with books in their hands, and when they heard the sound, they all looked at each other in unison.
Xie Zhi swept inside, and before he could speak, a familiar and arrogant voice sounded.
"It turns out that there is still official support, no wonder I dare to say the wild words of high school Xie Yuan!"
Xie Zhi glanced at the familiar sound and shadow wrapped in a cloth on his nose, and didn't bother to debate with him, raised his hand and said, "Take him down!"
Zhu Houzhao did not refute, and Jinyiwei quickly started to act.
"Why did you arrest me, why did you arrest me... I'm famous..."
This Confucian is crazy and stupid, it is not a big deal to know Xie Zhi's identity and say a few wild words before, but now Xie Zhi is with Jinyiwei, and he dares to provoke, not stupid, what is it?
Now is not the time to deal with this matter, Xie Zhi impatiently ordered: "Seal his mouth for me."
As he was talking, how could Xie Zhi see that there seemed to be a sneaky person hiding behind the group of scholars at the back.
This person is a familiar person, and it seems that he is the one who sells the inscription.
"Who? Don't dare to come out and meet? ”
Xie Zhi shouted, and the man didn't seem to hear it, but a group of readers with books in their hands looked back.
Feeling that he had no way to hide, he had no choice but to smile flatteringly, walked over slowly, walked to Xie Zhi's side, and said, "Childe just treated the villain as a fart, right?" This is the money that the villain has earned in the past few days, and it is all given to the son. ”
Is Xie Zhi the kind of person who takes bribes?
directly showed the silver coin that the seller had quietly stuffed, and asked sharply, "Is this going to buy so-and-so?" Someone, take him away for me! ”
The two brocade guards, one on the left and one on the right, were directly on the arms of the peddler.
The mantle dealer kept shouting at this time, "Childe, childe..."
At this moment, a round man walked up to the backyard, pointed to the two people who were grabbed by the brocade guard and asked, "I don't know what the two of them have committed?" Why arrest people? ”
Both the buyer and the seller are in the inn, and whether the inn knows it needs to be investigated.
But now is not the time to deal with this matter, Xie Zhi directly confirmed: "These two are guests of your inn, right?"
The innkeeper pointed to the arrogant Confucian surnamed Chen and said, "He is."
Xie Zhi didn't say much anymore, and said: "What did he do, the government will give an explanation, you just hope that you won't be involved, today a certain person is here for this matter, a certain came to ask you, but someone with a child about six or seven years old came to live in the hotel to play sharp?"
The main reception here is for scholars who have entered Beijing to take the exam, and it must be obvious if someone brings children.
After thinking about it for a long time, the shopkeeper finally said, "No." ”
"Think about it, if there is really this person in your store, you will hide it and not report it." Zhu Houzhao threatened again.
The shopkeeper didn't blurt out, thought for a while, and then replied categorically, "No, really not."
