At the beginning of the lanterns, the pedestrians on the street did not decrease, the carriage went all the way north along the Huangchenggen, Lao Hu sat on the wheel and frowned, although what Chang Yu said was extremely true, who did the murder in the Huangchenggen, but he always felt that someone was following, but he looked left and right and found no suspicious person.

Maybe he was suspicious, Lao Hu thought so, forced to be calm, and caught the car with peace of mind.

Half a pillar of incense kung fu, the carriage along the root of the imperial city bypassed the north city to the east of the city to the east of the city of Baodafang, in the car Chang Yu in a daze heard the old Hu call him: "Factory Gong, Dongchang Hutong is about to arrive."

Chang Yu came to a sound, opened his eyes, stretched his waist, got out of the carriage and sat side by side with the old man, squinted and looked around, it was dark, there were few pedestrians on the street, because it was close to the imperial city, there were not many shops, and the lights were almost on.

Dongchang Hutong is named after the Dongchang Yamen here, close to the imperial city, the Hutong is not big, but the Yamen is not small, several courtyards are connected together, quite large-scale, because of its particularity, the ghosts and gods in the past have retreated, and no one dares to approach the ordinary people, even at this time it also seems to be extremely deserted.

As soon as the carriage stopped at the entrance of the yamen, two men in black rushed over, with hideous expressions: "What are you doing?" ”

The old man jumped out of the car and whispered a word, and the two immediately changed their faces: "Little Tang Tu, I've seen Lord Overseer!" ”

Chang Yu waved his hand lightly and did not speak, but looked up at the yamen, the dilapidated gatehouse was overgrown with weeds, and there was a weather-beaten wooden plaque hanging on it, which read: Dongji Factory,

The dignified East Factory is so dilapidated, Chang Yu sighed secretly, but after thinking about it, he felt funny, as if the yamen of the Ming Dynasty were all virtuous, whether there was oil and water or no oil and water, they all liked to make a broken door to show people, from the early Ming Dynasty Zhu Hongwu was ruthless to corrupt officials, and he would pick up the skin and cramp at every turn, so the officials usually did not repair the façade (yamen) in order to show that they had a clean breeze on their sleeves, and some even made the old with the new.

This tradition has continued from the early Ming Dynasty to the present day.

"I've seen the Overseer" At this moment, more than a dozen people walked out of the yamen, but it was Chunxiang first.

Chunxiang as the second in command of the East Factory, Chang Yu directly put the burden on him, the restart task of the entire East Factory was handed over to him, all kinds of waste to be rebuilt, complicated affairs, in the afternoon and the twenty-four Yamen eunuchs rushed out of the palace to deal with the matter, convened a group of deployments are in a meeting, heard that Chang Yu arrived, and immediately went out to greet him.

After the fall of Wei Zhongxian, although the East Factory was not abolished, it was also nothing, without the backstage, these original minions had to lie dormant in a low-key manner, so as not to be hit by their ambitions.

Now that Chang Yu has taken office and Dongchang is back, these minions are also going to go out of the mountain, as for who the scourge is, it depends on who Chang Yu points to.

Chunxiang took Chang Yu around the yamen, as a serious yamen to the outside world, it is far larger than the inner east factory yamen in the imperial city, and various functional departments are also much complete.

"I know you love to drink tea, but there is nothing decent in this yamen, this is what I just brought out of the palace this afternoon, I didn't expect you to drink it so soon" In the hall, Chunxiang helped Chang Yu make tea and said with a smile.

Chang Yu chuckled: "You are a spirit, but if you want good tea, you have to go to Wei Dahai, he has a lot of good goods."

Chunxiang was stunned: "No, isn't it all supervised by the royal family, Wei Dahai ......" said and suddenly realized, shaking his head slightly: "Powerful ......"

Wei Dahai is the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch, second only to the second yamen of the ceremonial eunuch, in addition to being responsible for the management of the imperial stables and pastures, he also works part-time to protect the emperor's safety, and is also responsible for taking care of the emperor's shop, and is the boss of the real power in the twenty-four yamen in the palace, so all the good things that are paid tribute outside will be given to him, and even sometimes the emperor uses these eunuchs with real power, which is by no means a joke.

After the tea, seeing that there was no one around, Chang Yu asked in a low voice, "That batch of silver can be put away."

Chunxiang nodded: "The warehouse is locked, and our people are guarding it, and it is said that it is the allocated materials."

Chang Yu nodded slightly, he brought a large amount of silver from Taiyuan, two of which did not enter the palace after entering the city, and directly asked Jinyiwei to send it here secretly.

Because these silvers are part of the private money of him, Wu Mengming and others, it is used to pay the reward for the original promise of Tang Potian, Cheng Ming and other personal guard generals and extreme guards.

Chang Yu didn't want Chongzhen to know about this money.

"Pick a time, let Tang Potian and Cheng Ming divide the silver, and those brothers in the province will look through the autumn water."

"You don't leave some?" Chunxiang asked.

"Let's put it in Taiyuan" Chang Yu smiled and said: "Tell them, take the silver with a tight mouth, it's okay to pass it out, if there is something, it's a big deal!" ”

"They are all children who are not three years old, they know the truth of making a lot of money in a muffled voice" Chunxiang shrugged his shoulders and turned his head to look outside: "Are you fishing?" ”

Chang Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I haven't taken the bait yet, but I still scared Lao Hu a lot."

Chunxiang laughed: "Lao Hu has always lived in the palace, he is naturally timid and afraid of things, why did you just take him out."

Chang Yu shrugged: "It can only be said that he is just at the right time, I originally wanted to let Cheng Chongdao, the guard of the East Palace, accompany me, who knew that Lao Hu would come to me ......."

"Then you will go back to the palace directly, or go to Guangqumen, the little apple thinks you are so powerful! After I returned to Beijing, I went to take a look, and she saw that I kept chattering about you" Chunxiao seemed to be smiling.

Chang Yu gave him a blank look: "I'll let you go over there, mainly to see if those family members are safe."

Hmph, Chunxiang sneered: "If they don't have any restlessness, the steel knife on my waist will see blood."

Chang Yu smiled slightly and looked at him: "Who would have thought that a dozen miscellaneous people in the palace would now be splashed with blood three steps between talking and laughing."

"Near Zhu Zhechi, who would have thought that the miscellaneous servants of Shang Shan Jian are powerful today" Chunxiang looked at him with a worried face: "The water in the capital is deep and the fish are big, you have to be careful when fishing."

Chang Yu got up and patted him on the shoulder: "I don't know, but you also know my temperament, I want to try the depth of this water and how big the fish is, so as not to have no chance to leave Beijing in a few days."

"You can rest assured, they are more worried about not having a chance, so they are impatient, I met on the third day after returning to Beijing, you have a big face, and you may have good luck today."

"I hope so, good luck to me, take advantage of this day, I'll try my luck again and visit a few yamen" Chang Yu said before leaving.

"Are you going to find Teng Xiang Wei Cheng Ming?" Chunxiang asked casually.

Chang Yu shook his hand as he walked out: "Jintaifang is too far, let's go back and talk about it, isn't Tang Potian in Baodafang?"

"Yes, you go out of the alley and go straight to the south, and the entrance of the lamp market is" Chunxiang sent Chang Yu to the yamen: "I will spend the night in the yamen tonight, you can say hello if you have something."

"Busy with your going" Chang Yu jumped into the car and patted Lao Hu: "Go to the Dengshikou."

The emperor's direct guard army twenty-six guards, in addition to the henchmen of the Jinyi guard, there are two personal guards in the combat guard, one of which is Tengxiang four guards, the other is the government guard, of which the government army avant-garde This army is very special, known as the "knife housekeeper", that is, the emperor's personal guard, commonly known as the sword guard, generally in addition to the Jin Yi Guard, the Han general who can patrol in the palace is also the government army avant-garde.

For example, Tang Potian is the sword officer of the avant-garde of the government army, with the rank of a thousand households, and he is also the chief of the prince's East Palace guard.

The avant-garde yamen of the government army was located at the entrance of the Baodafang Dengshi in the east of the imperial city.

The entrance of the lamp market is named after the lamp market from the eighth to the eighteenth day of the lunar calendar every year in the Ming Dynasty.

Half a cup of tea Kung Fu Chang Yu's carriage arrived at the entrance of the avant-garde of the government army, and the guards on duty looked at a carriage stopped in front of the door in a big way, feeling very surprised, and then someone moved forward.

Those who came from the palace looked for Tang Qianhu.

There is only one thousand households surnamed Tang in the avant-garde of the government army, and that is Tang Potian.

Tang Potian, who was drinking and bragging with his colleagues in the yamen, heard that the people in the palace were looking for him, and hurriedly ran out, and when he saw that it was Chang Yu, he was excited and surprised: "What is the matter with the factory man coming here late at night?" ”。

"This governor received a report that someone in your yamen was drinking in violation of the order, let's see if it's true" Chang Yu looked at Tang Potian, who was flushed, with a cold face.

Tang Potian couldn't help but snort: "Factory, factory company, this is not on duty......"

"Whoever says that you can drink heavily when you are not on duty" Chang Yu shouted angrily, Tang Potian was frightened and immediately clasped his fists and kowtowed: "My lord, atone for ...... sins"

"Ben Governor hasn't eaten dinner yet, so you're good...... Who are you gluttonous? Chang Yu snorted coldly, and walked towards the yamen.

Tang Potian behind him rolled his eyes helplessly, what are you doing, I feel a little uncomfortable, and I woke up in fright: "Come on, quickly get some wine and food for the factory superintendent......"
