Chapter 159: Huang Gonggong
In the underground prison in the northeast of Jinyi Wei Guangde Hundred Households, Zhang Zhenshan's face was solemn at this time.
After staring at the cell for a long time, Zhang Zhenshan said to Chen Xiaoting beside him: "I've been asking for two days in a row, and there is no progress?" ”
Although he has a good relationship with Zhang Zhenshan, Chen Xiaoting is also beating the drum in his heart after hearing this.
But he didn't bother to say anything about giving him some more time, but directly made an inference: "My lord, in the past two days of continuous interrogation, most of these people have been tortured, but none of them have confessed to scrutiny!" ”
Hearing this, Zhang Zhenshan interrupted: "So what? ”
Chen Xiaoting replied: "I think that it is very likely that the Lin family has nothing to do with this matter, and they were framed...... It's just that we don't know how to find out who is behind this scene! ”
Hearing this, Zhang Zhenshan couldn't help but sigh and said: "Who said it wasn't, but if you can't find the real messenger behind it, Gonggong Huang won't give up!" ”
Jinyiwei has a special status, and the eunuchs sent by Dongchang have an even more special status, and no one wants to provoke them.
Speaking of this, Zhang Zhenshan continued: "The person who wants Hu Weide to die must be related to the errand he investigated, but Huang Gonggong is ...... so far did not truthfully inform Hu Weide's will! ”
Through Hu Weide's specific investigation, we can infer who he offended, and we can directly determine who was the murderer.
"My lord, it can't be the guards from the guard, right?" Chen Xiaoting boldly speculated.
After Zhang Zhenshan thought about it, he said: "Although there is such a possibility, Huang Ting's father-in-law can also think that the army is the detection scope of Dongchang!" ”
Chen Xiaoting understood that even if it was really the black hand of Tai Xiwei's gang, it did not belong to Jinyiwei's business scope.
Standing in place, Chen Xiaoting also added: "At the beginning, I was ordered to guard Director Hu, but when I was waiting for him at Mapoyi, Director Hu was attacked on the way here!" ”
"Master Hu came in secret, but he was found by a group of unpopular bandits in Dongxiang, and at that time, he knew that someone wanted to put him to death!"
Zhang Zhenshan had learned about this, so he asked: "I heard that these thieves are still in prison, but they haven't asked anything?" ”
Chen Xiaoting nodded and said, "These bandits contacted that person, and they were already dead when they were exterminated, and the rest of the people don't know what happened!" ”
"The rest of the people were tortured after being sent back to the Yamen, and now only the bandit leader is still alive, and the others have all died under heavy punishment!"
"If you don't achieve it once, you will do it twice, and your methods will become more and more vicious, but you will do things without leaving traces...... The forces provoked by Hu Weide are very strong on the ground in Yongxi! Zhang Zhenshan sighed.
There was probably no hope of torture inside, so Zhang Zhenshan turned around and walked outside the prison, while Chen Xiaoting followed closely behind.
When the two of them walked out of the dungeon, as if there was no one around, Zhang Zhenshan said: "Zhou Baihu didn't even look at it, and it was not easy to protect himself for Mingzhe!" ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Zhenshan continued: "Do you know that in the more than 20 provinces of the Ming Dynasty, there were more than 20 eunuchs scattered all over the country...... But our Yongxi, Huang Gonggong, is unique! ”
I didn't know much about these Chen Xiaoting, so I saw him follow Zhang Zhenshan and bow down and said, "Please also give me advice!" ”
As if to relieve his anxiety, Zhang Zhenshan said: "This Huang Gonggong only came to Luyang two years ago, and before that, when he was on an errand in Da Nei, he was extremely favored by the emperor!" ”
"It is said that before he went to Luyang, the emperor intended to promote him to the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch of Bingbi, which shows the grandpride of his holy grace!"
Hearing this, Chen Xiaoting was really shocked!
The celebrant is known as the small cabinet, and its chief palm seal eunuch is even respected as the prime minister, and the eunuch Bingbi is the same as the cabinet minister as his deputy.
You must know that one of the eunuchs who is the master of ceremonies is the one who is ordered to supervise the existence of Dongchang.
Huang Ting entered the celebrant supervisor, even if he couldn't supervise the East Factory, his status was similar to that of the commander of Jinyiwei.
What shocked Chen Xiaoting even more was how such a eunuch with a holy grace came to the bitter cold land of Yongxi.
Even if he was sent to the Jiangnan provinces, Chen Xiaoting could figure it out, after all, the Jiangnan provinces were the important tax places of the imperial court.
So Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but ask: "Since this Huang Gonggong is a saint, how can he come to the ground of our Yongxi?" ”
Chen Xiaoting just asked casually, but he didn't expect Zhang Zhenshan to answer: "It is said that when this Huang Gonggong was on an errand, he was dirty when grinding, which made the emperor Longyan angry......
This is too child's play, Chen Xiaoting said secretly in his heart.
At this time, I saw Zhang Zhenshan stop and said slowly: "I say this just to let you know that we can't afford to offend this Huang Gonggong, and the errand handed over to us must be done beautifully!" ”
Not only can he afford to offend these people, but even Zhou Wenzhu is protecting himself...... Chen Xiaoting was a little aggrieved at this time.
I only heard him say: "My lord, there are so many people in the hundred households, why did you choose me to do things together!" ”
Chen Xiaoting's words were full of grievances, and he almost didn't say clearly, why did so many people in the Hundred Households want to pit him!
Zhang Zhenshan couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, so he said: "Among the small banners, you are the most powerful, who do you choose if you don't choose?"
Although these words are an affirmation of Chen Xiaoting's ability, Chen Xiaoting would rather be treated as a waste, and he is not far from being on the cusp of the storm at this time.
But Zhang Zhenshan continued: "In addition, you are also the general personally ordered by the Lord of Qianhu!" ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Zhenshan said meaningfully: "Boy, I don't know what is extremely outstanding about you, so that the Lord of Qianhu values you so much!" ”
Because I want to tell you when I saved Shen Qianhu's life? Chen Xiaoting said secretly in his heart.
At this time, Zhang Zhenshan patted Chen Xiaoting on the shoulder and said, "You are so young, you still have a long way to go up, you can't let down the Lord of Qianhu!" ”
After Zhang Zhenshan said this, he said to Chen Xiaoting: "This official will go to check the secret file, you continue to watch here!" ”
The so-called secret file is a file built by the Hundred Households on the ground of Guangde, such as the officials and gentry, which records in detail the relationship and actions of the various forces.
Zhang Zhenshan wants to open a breakthrough from this, and it has to be said that it is a way, but Chen Xiaoting knows that it is difficult.
Zhang Zhenshan left, and Chen Xiaoting had just walked to the entrance of the prison when he remembered Zhang Cheng who was wandering outside.
Today is the third day, but there is no news from Zhang Cheng's side!
"Do you want to report to Mr. Zhang first and arrest him?" Chen Xiaoting said in his mouth.
But then he denied this method, in case Zhang Cheng had already found out some eyebrows, wouldn't it be embarrassing at that time?
And he, Chen Xiaoting, is in Zhang Zhenshan and Baihu, and he has become a villain!
"Take someone to find Zhang Cheng first, and if he doesn't get anything, he will be arrested and put under house arrest, and then report to Zhang Zongqi for his ......," Chen Xiaoting muttered.
So he pointed to the guard in the dungeon and said, "You, come here!" ”
When the officer came forward to salute, he said, "What do you command?" ”
Chen Xiaoting said: "You go and tell Zhang Ertie inside, let them find Zhao Ying and Zheng Ding, and the official has something to order!" ”
The messenger then took the order and left, and Chen Xiaoting turned around and walked outside, his face becoming gloomy.
Although Zhang Cheng is interesting enough, if he really has nothing to gain, Chen Xiaoting will never show mercy to his subordinates.
"We're all pawns!" Chen Xiaoting sighed.
