Chapter 507: The True Face of Lushan (2)
When the team arrived outside the Hongyun Inn, Yan Juren lowered his head with a hideous expression. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the old daughter of the uncle and aunt, the most noble daughter of the Yan family, Shen Yuan's eldest son Shen Jin, who understood Yuan in the ration last autumn, through the order of her parents.
The Yan family did not find fault with Shen Jin is concubine, and prepared thousands of dowries for his daughter, waiting for Shen Jin to be the champion and Shen Yuan to regret their marriage. Shen Yuan didn't say anything, but also said that he was not ashamed to take the daughter of the Yan family as a concubine for his son.
The Yan family has become a joke in Yangzhou City, and Yan Juren's cousin has always been high-minded, so she couldn't stand the insult and hung the beam directly in the middle of the night. Although he was found and saved, he completely ruined his throat. Where can the Yan family stand this anger, and keeping Shen Yuan is not because they don't want to take revenge, but because they understand that it is easy for Shen Yuan to die and avoid future tribulations.
It was with a strong hatred for the Shen family, knowing that the Shen family had many sons and daughters, and that the power of the government and the opposition could not be shaken by a salt merchant family, Yan Jucai took the initiative to defect to his cousin who was an official in the Ning Wangfu after knowing the ambitions of the Ning family from the clues he overheard from the elders, in order to find an opportunity to use the power of the Ning Wangfu to eradicate the Shen family, and did not want the opportunity to come so quickly.
No matter how resentful and complicated Yan Juren in the crowd was, the mighty guard of honor of the prefect's yamen naturally alarmed Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong in the Hongyun Inn.
"This Zhao Xianzhong is moving fast!" Zhang Yong snorted coldly, and did not mean to change clothes, and said to Wang Shouren: "Lord Wang, I heard that when civil officials travel, they all have staff masters as followers, and today the miscellaneous family will be a follower for Lord Wang." ”
Wang Shouren is the envoy of the Qincha, and seeing that Zhang Yong is unwilling to reveal his identity, he is not reluctant, but only said: "In this way, the lower officials will be disrespectful." ”
The self-proclaimed "lower official" is not Wang Shouren's flattery, but Zhang Yong is one of the fourteen chief eunuchs in the palace, and his grade is the fourth grade, which is higher than Wang Shouren's fifth grade.
Wang Shouren went back and changed into his official uniform, although it was a five-grade civil official cyan robe, which looked a little less magnificent, but in his hand was the Ming Huang Holy Decree. A group of accompanying brocade guards, except for the dozen or so people who were still dressed as servants, the others also went to regular clothes, changed into flying fish clothes, hung up embroidered spring knives, and hugged Wang Shouren out.
Zhao Xianzhong was outside, waiting in line with all the subordinate officials, and the more he waited, the more apprehensive he became, just thinking that Qin was sending himself a dismount. After thinking about all the Jingguan who could be counted under Xie Ge's old family, he really couldn't guess which one came to Songjiang.
When he saw the brocade guards coming out surrounded by a young official in a green robe, Zhao Xianzhong only thought that he was sending a message to Qin.
Before Wang Shouren could speak, a brocade-clothed guard next to him had already reprimanded loudly: "Bold, the Holy Decree is here, and the Holy Decree is not yet welcomed!" ”
Is this little official in the green robe a Qincha, or is this Jinyi Wei Baihu a Qincha? Such a shocking event as Songjiang is such a weighty Qincha?
Zhao Xianzhong's mind was still foggy, but the subordinate officials behind him stabbed him before he lifted his shirt and knelt down to receive the order.
Wang Shouren took the holy decree and glanced back at Zhang Yong, who was standing behind the Jinyi guard, showing a little helplessness. Originally, Zhang Yong announced the decree to introduce him, but since Zhang Yong was unwilling to show up, only Wang Shouren was left to announce the decree himself.
The decree was dictated by Emperor Zhengde, which was simple and clear, and ordered Wang Shouren of Langzhong of the Military Department to investigate the Songjiang 'Rebellion' and related cases, and the local civil and military yamen listened to and assisted.
Hearing the words "Wang Shouren", Zhao Xianzhong thought that he understood why a mere five-grade official would become a chincha. It turned out that this was the son of Wang Hua, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Hua was born as a champion, not only a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, but also a teacher in the East Palace, and had a teacher-student friendship with the new emperor, and he had long been speculated to be the next cabinet minister after Liu Ge's old envoy.
It's just that the emperor didn't send any of the three pavilion elders to send this seemingly neutral person down, why did the other party seem to be closer to the Shen family?
Zhao Xianzhong is not a Beijing official after all, even if he pays attention to the capital and the court, it is also a major matter of court politics, and he will not check what personal relationship the Shen family has with the Wang family, so he can't figure it out for a while.
Zhao Xianzhong was puzzled, but he still followed the original plan and sincerely invited the Qin Cha to stay in the prefect's yamen.
Wang Shouren shirked twice, and then he should accept it, after all, the investigation of the case could not bypass the Yamen of the Songjiang Prefect.
Wang Shouren looked back at Zhang Yong again, only when he was so wary of Zhao Xianzhong before, for the sake of safety, he would prefer to stay in the Hongyun Inn and other Suzhou weaving manpower, I don't want Zhang Yong to still be a scribe, with the steward of the Wang family and the little servant, followed the team to prepare to set off, restrained the style when he was in Beijing, and looked no different from ordinary staff.
Wang Shouren's turn around made Yan Juren pay attention to Zhang Yong.
Wang Shouren himself is only in his early thirties, and because of his handsome appearance, he looks a few years younger than his actual age, and he looks like he is only twenty-seven or eight years old. Such a young five-rank official, who is registered in front of the emperor, has a great future, which is enough to make the officials present envious.
Yan Juren once again remembered what happened to him in Beijing twice, and guessed that Wang Shouren was most likely the son of a powerful person, and when he saw Zhang Yong, a middle-aged Confucian student, looking wise and reliable, he knew that this was most likely a confidant arranged by Wang Shouren's powerful elders, and he was jealous in his heart.
On the way back to the prefect's yamen, Yan Juren took the time to ask Zhao Xianzhong about the identity of Wang Shouren. To know that he is the son of Wang Hua, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the seventh Jinshi of the second class in the twelfth year of Hongzhi, Yan Juren couldn't help but be stunned.
The twelfth year of Hongzhi and the fifteenth year of Hongzhi were the time when Yan Juren entered Beijing twice to participate in the Spring Festival. When he was at a loss, Wang Shouren had already relied on his father to become a second-class jinshi.
Yan Juren looked at Wang Shouren's sedan chair, his eyes were red, and he even left the Shen family behind for a while, just wanting to make the proud Lord Qincha in front of him fall and never get up again.
Zhang Yong followed the Wang family steward and the little servant behind the team, and saw the situation in front of him clearly. Seeing Yan Juren's gloomy face, Zhang Yong asked Wuyan: "That Yan Juren's eyes are wrong, but he has an old grudge with your family?" ”
Wu Yan scratched his head and said: "My lord has not been in the capital in the past few years, or he has been on a foreign business, and he has not come to Songjiang Mansion. ”
Zhang Yong looked at Yan Juren's costumes, reacted, and sneered: "Look at that kid's style, his demeanor is a little pretentious, not from the Beijing Academy, most of them are the first to move in the same year as your master, envy and jealousy of your master's decentness." ”
Wuyan was only twelve or thirteen years old, innocent, covered his mouth and smiled: "If you see a Jinshi master, you will be envious and jealous, that one subject is more than three hundred, three years is one subject, and when you see twenty or thirty at once, you can't be angry like a toad." ”
Zhang Yong laughed with Wuyan, but he mentioned it in his heart. He hadn't forgotten the results of Shen Rui and Shen Li's previous investigation, this Yan Juren was a person sent by Ning Wangfu. If Matsue, which the other party wants to stir up, continues to mess up, what will happen next? Zhang Yong narrowed his eyes, called a brocade guard who had not been modified and was still dressed as a domestic servant, and commanded in a low voice.
Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, the brocade guard left the team, bypassed the alley, and hurried away.
Rao is like this, Zhang Yong is still not at ease, and found an opportunity to tell Yang Baihu, the leading Jinyi guard, that he should be more vigilant and pay attention to protecting Wang Shouren's safety. If Yan Juren killed Wang Shouren and blamed the Shen family or Zhao Xianzhong, then Songjiang would be in a big mess next. Seeing Zhang Yong being so cautious, Yang Baihu became more and more cautious, and quietly passed on the instructions.
Shenjiafang, Zongfang.
The big movement outside the Hongyun Inn has been transmitted back to the sect. Shen Hai didn't know the bottom of his heart, he couldn't sit still at all, he stayed in the guest room, and sent most of the family manpower, just staring at the news of the prefect and the Qincha.
Even if the Qin Cha who knew it was Shen Rui's teacher and Shen Li's old acquaintance, Shen Hai was concerned about it, and he was still worried that there would be extraneous branches at this time, after all, there were still internal officials and Jinyi guards down, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Wenchen and internal officials have been fighting non-stop. Jinyiwei has always been attached to the imperial power, and the civil officials are also civil and military. Wang Shouren is a messenger, but there are internal officials and brocade guards, and he may not be able to make full decisions.
Shen Li put down most of his heart, because he often went to the palace to lecture before in the Hanlin Academy, and he also lectured for the East Palace, and he was very impressed by Zhang Yong, the former companion of the East Palace.
Unlike the arrogant and rampant Liu Jin, Zhang Yong has a higher cultural literacy, respects scholars, and sincerely supervises and cares for the emperor, and is regarded as an internal official with better ethics around the emperor. With the relationship between the emperor and Shen Rui, as well as the Shen family's scholarly children, Zhang Yong will naturally favor the Shen family a few points.
As for Shen Rui, knowing that the Shen family was most likely in danger this time, he was worried about the fifth room. Dr. Zhang, who was accompanying him to the south, had already opened his mouth to get ready, and Guo seemed to accept the result. But how can you wait for Shen Qi to come out?
Just when several people were thinking differently, the footsteps at the door were in a hurry, and the little guy came in and replied, saying that someone had taken a sign to invite Shen Li. Waiting for the man to hand over the sign with both hands, Shen Li's face was immediately solemn, and he hurriedly came out.
That brand is nothing else, it is the number brand that represents the identity of Jinyiwei.
Shen Hai and Shen Rui couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Shen Li's reaction, and hurriedly followed.
In the gatehouse, the servant dressed as a brocade guard Xiaoqi was one of the people who guarded the door outside Zhang Yongmen of the Hongyun Inn before. Shen Rui immediately recognized it and whispered to Shen Li: "It's Lord Jinyiwei who went south with the teacher and Gonggong Zhang." ”
Although the brocade guard had never seen Shen Li, he looked at the three of them, estimated their age, and asked Shen Li, "But Master Shen?" ”
"This is the official." Shen Li said: "Is it that Father-in-law Zhang has something to explain?" ”
If it was Wang Shouren, he would only send the stewards and servants around him to pass the word, and would not go beyond the command of Jinyiwei; The only ones who can summon the Jinyi Guard are the ministers.
The brocade guard glanced at Shen Hai and Shen Rui, and saw that Shen Li did not shy away from the two, and said: "It was Gonggong Zhang who instructed the lower officials to send a message to Lord Shen, saying that Yan Juren was going to make trouble, and asked Master Shen if he knew where the other party would start?" ”
Shen Li's brows furrowed, and he fell into deep thought.
Since this Yan Juren came here to cover up the looting of King Ning, he naturally took advantage of the convenience of the prefect's yamen to destroy all the suspicious evidence of the "rebellion" ashore.
Shen Li was in turmoil for a while, but Shen Rui was worried about the matter of the fifth room, and thought of a possibility, so he lost his voice and said: "The prefect's yamen prison, several clan brothers are in danger!" ”
