30. Conspiracy - Twenty-seven years of the Great Calendar (II)

The entire Kyoto Prefecture, which is directly penetrated into the middle street, is divided into two urban districts, the eastern city is mostly inhabited by ordinary people, and occasionally there will be a few nobles from the western city who will arrange their own homes that cannot be shown outside, so the eastern city will also be often staged, a group of noble women in luxurious clothes from the western city, come here to find a husband. The Nishijo of Kyoto Prefecture is located here, so the nobles of Kyoto Prefecture also live here, and there is no Dongcheng "husband searching" drama here, but occasionally there are officials with different political opinions here to talk to each other.

Yang Kang drove the carriage from the Liang Wangfu in Xicheng and drove into the middle street, and the bell representing the nobles kept swaying on the edge of the carriage, echoing with a crisp sound.

The carriage headed towards the northern castle of Kyoto Prefecture, passing through the residences of the nobles before stopping in front of the Imperial Palace. Yang Kang stopped the carriage steadily, then lifted the curtain behind him, and Chu Boyu slowly got out of the car.

At this time, there were already people waiting for him at the gate of the palace.

When Chu Boyu saw the figure of the man, he stepped forward and greeted him politely: "Father-in-law Hou, you are early, I don't know why you are here?" ”

The person waiting for Chu Boyu was the chief eunuch beside Emperor Chu, Gonggong Hou.

When Gonggong Hou saw Chu Boyu so polite, his face was naturally bright, but he was very flattered, and hurriedly saluted Chu Boyu: "His Royal Highness King Liang, you are polite, let you personally say hello to the old slave, it is really embarrassing for the old slave." The old slave is here because His Majesty asked the old slave to wait here. ”

Chu Boyu was a little stunned and asked, "Brother Huang asked your father-in-law to wait for me here?" He knew I was coming? ”

Father-in-law Hou replied respectfully: "Exactly." ”

Chu Boyu looked at Gonggong Hou in front of him, thinking that he should have already gotten the news when he came to the palace.

"Your Majesty asked you to go directly to the Imperial Study." Gonggong Hou said respectfully again.

The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

Chu Boxiong held the note handed over by the secret guard below this morning, and his brows were furrowed.

"Kong Xu, is this news accurate?" Chu Boxiong frowned and stared at the person in front of him.

"Your Majesty, that's accurate. And this morning, the guards guarding the door came to report, and at the end of the day, Qi Song of Qijiazhuang entered Kyoto Mansion. ”

"Qi Song?" Chu Boxiong pondered slightly, it seemed that such a name appeared in his memory, but because of the long time, he couldn't remember where it appeared.

"It's the son of the deputy general of the Qi family in the Battle of Liuling back then."

Chu Boxiong suddenly, his memory seemed to go back to the war many years ago, when he was just a prince, the deputy general of the Qi family called Qi Zhihao, desperately trying his best to rescue himself from the enemy camp, Qi Zhihao at that time, like a killing god, invincible.

"Your Majesty?" Kong Xu saw that Chu Boxiong was stunned, so he called twice below.

Chu Boxiong came back to his senses, sighed, and then said to Kong Xu: "Liuling back then, if it weren't for Qijiazhuang, I really don't know who would be sitting here talking to you now." ”

When Kong Xu heard Chu Boxiong say such a thing, he was shocked into a cold sweat, naturally he didn't dare to talk, this kind of thing, if he got it right, it would be fine, if he said something wrong, he would be considered to have lived to the end.

Chu Boxiong looked at Kong Xu, sighed softly, waved his hand, and said: "The matter of the year has passed, don't mention it again, you go down, there may be more affairs in the Kyoto Prefecture in the past few days, and you have to do your duty as the governor of Kyoto." ”

Kong Xu naturally knew what Chu Boxiong meant, in fact, he was looking for a step for himself, after all, the matter of Liuling was the gag order he gave back then, and it was he who brought it up again today.

Kong Xu smiled bitterly in his heart, but he didn't show it, as an old fritter in officialdom, he still has this ability.

"Minister, retire." Kong Xu made a big gesture and slowly retreated.

Chu Boxiong pinched the note in his hand in the imperial study alone, thoughtfully, as if he had thought of something again, and shouted outside the door of the study: "Hou Sizheng!" ”

A shrill voice came from outside the door of the imperial study: "The old slave is here." ”

"Go to the palace gate, if you meet King Liang, let him come directly to the imperial study." Chu Boxiong commanded.

Father-in-law Hou answered outside the door, "Yes." ”

Then he left in a hurry.

"I really don't know who is so bold to attack Qijiazhuang." Chu Boxiong's gaze returned to the note in his hand, and his expression became cold, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, Gonggong Hou took Chu Boyu to the door of the imperial study, and Gonggong Hou and Chu Boyu said goodbye and retreated.

Chu Boyu watched Gonggong Hou leave, and he raised his hand and directly pushed open the door of the imperial study, and saw Chu Boxiong inside.

"Brother Huang." Chu Boyu called softly.

When Chu Boxiong saw King Liang come in, he was obviously in a good mood, and said to him, "Only you dare to directly open the door of my imperial study." ”

Chu Boxiong beckoned to Chu Boyu and asked him to come to the table, and immediately handed the note in his hand to Chu Boyu.

"You should know what happened last night."

Chu Boyu nodded and said, "I got the news early this morning, and Qi Xuan, the Dark Division of the Metropolitan Mansion, left Kyoto Mansion and returned to Qijiazhuang. ”

"Well," Chu Boxiong paused for a moment, then said, "Send someone to find out who did this." ”

"The younger brother has already sent someone to investigate, and I heard that it is just the enemy of Qi Hanshan on the rivers and lakes." Chu Boyu told Chu Boxiong what he knew.

Chu Boxiong sighed, and then said to his little brother: "Well, let the Yasi Mansion find out which one it is, so that you can give an explanation to the Qi family." ”

"Hmm."

"We all came over from that war, Qi Hanshan led Qijiazhuang to fully support me, and I also lost him to sit here, but I didn't expect Qi Hanshan to have such a catastrophe."

"Brother Huang......" Chu Boyu, the king of Liang, wanted to speak and stopped.

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

"Since the first battle of Liuling, Qijiazhuang has been helped by the imperial brother, in charge of the lifeblood of gold and silver in the rivers and lakes, and serves my royal family. Now that Qi Hanshan is dead, this Qijiazhuang will definitely be in chaos, and if it is poisoned by the enemy again, the consequences will be unimaginable. King Liang said to Chu Boxiong.

After Chu Boxiong heard this, he knew that what Chu Boyu said was reasonable, so he said to Chu Boyu: "Let Zizhan take a team of black armor guards to Qijiazhuang." ”

"Hmm. That...... ...... the Dark Division," King Liang paused for a moment, and then said, "Qi Hanshan is dead, and the position of the Dark Division is vacant. ”

Chu Boxiong knew what King Liang meant, King Liang, as the capital of the Yasi Capital, had been in charge of the Jianghu forces for many years, so he naturally knew the true meaning of the position of the Dark Division. And the dark division is responsible for finding out all kinds of news in the rivers and lakes, and the royal family can get all the power in the rivers and lakes in just 12 years, and the dark division can be said to have contributed a lot. In order to better control Qijiazhuang, the royal family left a person in Kyoto Mansion, named the Dark Division, and the position of the Young Capital Division, which was actually used as a bargaining chip for the royal family, so that Qijiazhuang did not dare to take a step beyond the Lei Chi.

But now that Qi Hanshan is dead, Qi Xuan has left Kyoto Mansion, and the chips in his hand are gone, Chu Boyu is naturally afraid that Qijiazhuang will make a move below, after all, it is a force in the rivers and lakes that holds the lifeblood of huge gold and silver.

Thinking of this, Chu Boxiong said to King Liang: "Qi Xuan is a smart man, he knows when to do something. ”

"But others aren't necessarily smart."

"If Qi Xuan can't even subdue those people, then there will be no need for Qijiazhuang to exist."
