In the early morning of February 13, the sky of the capital was drizzling.

In this weather, Chen Xiaoting, escorted by a lieutenant, slowly rushed to the direction of the palace.

This was the first time that the emperor had summoned Wu Jianxing nearly half a month after his assassination.

Although the eunuch did not clearly state the purpose of the summons, Chen Xiaoting could roughly guess that it was related to Wu Jianxing's case, and the emperor always had to listen to his personal report to feel at ease.

Although Chen Xiaoting set the tone for the case on the third day of February, the operation process paid attention to a slow word, and it had to be consistent with the dissipation of the heat of the court dispute.

Closing the case is purely a technical task, and whether it is fast or slow, it may cause misjudgment between the two parties of Huang and Qin.

And after Chen Xiaoting walked into the gate of the palace, in the east factory on the side outside the forbidden city, great changes also took place at this moment.

After being removed from the title of eunuch of the celebrant Bingbi three days ago, Liu Hong received the emperor's decree again early this morning.

"Remove Liu Hongdongchang from the post of admiral, and go to Longxing to guard the mausoleum, and the post of admiral is temporarily held by Huang Ting, Qin this!"

After the eunuch Jiang He finished reading the decree, he re-rolled up the holy decree in his hand, and after slowly coming to Liu Hong, he said in a cold tone: "Father-in-law Liu, take the decree!" ”

has been the great eunuch of the dynasty for nearly ten years, but at this moment he was removed from all his positions, and he was sent to Longxing to guard the mausoleum...... This is a huge blow to Liu Hong.

As far as he is concerned, he has done nothing wrong, because his subordinates have died and don't get involved, why should the emperor punish him so severely.

Although Liu Hong shouted injustice in his heart, he could only swallow this grievance, and now he is looking for death if he says more.

Trembling and raising his head, Liu Hong took the holy decree in Jiang He's hand, and then kowtowed: "Thank you, Lord Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

It is foreseeable that his half-old bones will die desolate in the imperial mausoleum.

After Jiang He handed over the holy decree to Liu Hong, he walked in front of Huang Ting, and then helped him up and said, "Grandpa Huang, congratulations!" ”

Although he is only temporarily in charge of the East Factory, this is just a formality, and the position of the Admiral of the East Factory is no longer Huang Ting.

The only thing he is looking forward to now is to become the master of ceremonies as soon as possible, so that he can compete with Liu Jinzhong.

After the Wang Hai incident, the prestige of the East Factory completely lagged behind that of the West Factory, which Huang Ting could never bear.

"Grandpa Jiang is polite!" Huang Ting said with a smile.

The two of them ignored Liu Hong, who was still kneeling, but left with a smile and a smile all the way.

After Liu Hong got up from the spot, he walked to the lobby where he usually worked, and he had to pack up his things and leave.

Seeing the chair in the lobby where he had been sitting for nearly ten years, Liu Hong couldn't help but sigh and said: "Come on, put away all the utensils for our family, and send them to Ping'an Lane after they are installed!" ”

However, there was no sound from what had been called in the past, and no one outside the lobby moved.

"Someone is coming, ......" Liu Hong accentuated his tone, and his mood became worse and worse.

The two eunuchs on duty outside still did not move, which made Liu Hong half angry, he usually treats these people well, but now they have become white-eyed wolves.

Liu Hong didn't control his emotions for a while, turned around and scolded: "Bastard, are you all deaf? ”

After saying this, he was still angry, but walked out of the lobby directly, pointed at a group of people outside and scolded: "You are really a bunch of white-eyed wolves, our family has lost power today, you dare to be so contemptuous?" ”

At this time, someone bluntly said: "Father-in-law Liu, you are no longer a factory father!" ”

One sentence made Liu Hong speechless, and the crippled people like eunuchs had little affection.

Just when Liu Hong was lonely, he heard Huang Ting's voice outside: "What are you still doing in a daze, pack up your things for Grandpa Liu!" ”

At this moment, Huang Ting had sent Jiang He back, he was already the new commander of Dongchang, and the people below naturally did not dare to listen to his words.

So, the people who had just collided with Liu Hong entered the lobby one after another at this moment and were busy inside.

Looking at Huang Ting, a junior, Liu Hong smiled bitterly and said, "Huang Gonggong, thank you!" ”

After all, Liu Hong has been his boss for so many years, and generally speaking, he is helpful to Huang Ting, so he has not fallen into the trap at this moment.

"Grandpa Liu, go to the imperial mausoleum to enjoy your old age!" Huang Ting said calmly.

But he could expect that after losing power, Liu Hong had offended many people before, and he would not let his life be too easy.

When Liu Hong left Dongchang lonely, Chen Xiaoting had also come to the outside of the Yuxu Palace and stepped into the main hall under the guidance of the eunuch.

When he came to the retreat, he happened to meet the emperor taking pills, and Chen Xiaoting honestly bowed on the spot.

"Weichen Beizhen Fu Si commanded Chen Xiaoting, knock on the emperor!"

After serving the Dan, Zhu Yujun looked at Chen Xiaoting and said, "The secret service department you talked about before, how are you preparing?" ”

The first question the emperor asked made Chen Xiaoting a little caught off guard.

"Back to the emperor, after the location of the secret service division has been selected, the construction has begun now, and it can be completed in three months at most!"

"Can it be built in three months? It's pretty fast, you'll have to keep an eye on it yourself! ”

"Yes!"

This was the end of the opening questioning, and after the emperor adjusted his sitting posture, he asked, "How is the case of the assassinated Baihu?" ”

Chen Xiaoting also said that Wu Jianxing died well, but in the emperor's place, he didn't even remember his name.

"Back to the emperor, the case has made great progress so far, the assassination of Wu Jianxing was killed by the enemy, and now the Beizhen Fusi has issued a sea arrest document, and the murderer is wanted nationwide!"

This so-called enemy family is naturally fictitious, but the people of the Thousand Households in Nancheng have also created evidence for its existence.

As long as you don't dig too deep, everything is reasonable.

"Hmm...... The murderer must be caught, and he must not be allowed to go unpunished! Zhu Yujun said in a deep voice.

"Obey the order, Weichen must urge his subordinates to strictly investigate and give an explanation to the deceased as soon as possible!"

After Zhu Yujun nodded, he continued: "For the families of the victims, you Beizhen Fusi must do your best to compensate them, and don't let them starve and freeze!" ”

"Yes!"

"Alright, let's go down!" Zhu Yujun closed his eyes and said.

"Yes!"

This is the fourth "obedience" that Chen Xiaoting said.

Then he slowly got up, and then slowly retreated from the main hall, and he felt relaxed after stepping out of the main hall.

From this moment on, the turmoil that had disturbed the imperial court for a month was officially over.

But Chen Xiaoting also knows that this cessation is temporary, and the struggle between the two parties will be triggered in the future, unless one of them falls.

Chen Xiaoting just stepped out of the gate of the Yuxu Palace, and Niu Jingyun, who was waiting outside, greeted him, and broke out big news as soon as he opened his mouth.

"My lord, I just got the news that the Admiral of Dongchang has been replaced, and now it is Huang Ting who sits in that position!"

Since Liu Hong was removed from the post of celebrant and supervisor, Chen Xiaoting had expected this day, so he was only slightly surprised.

But he still couldn't help but sigh: "In this world, it is difficult for ordinary people, and it is not easy for those in high positions!" ”

Huang Ting's position as the commander of Dongchang is also a good thing for Chen Xiaoting, after all, he has a good relationship with Huang Ting.

Immediately, Chen Xiaoting said to Niu Jingyun: "Be a good errand, your good thing is coming!" ”

"I understand, thank you for taking care of me!" Niu Jingyun said respectfully.

He went to Jiangnan with Chen Xiaoting to make great contributions, and he had been waiting for the benefits to be realized for a long time, and Chen Xiaoting gave him a reassuring pill at this moment.
