"Didn't succeed?" Cao Jixiang was angry, how could he not succeed? Jia Yue and Wan Liang's skills have been calculated under him, Zhang Ning is a gentleman, he has not practiced kung fu, and he has not brought a guard, how can he miss?

These two wastes must have learned the lesson of Lu Yiqiang, and they didn't dare to assassinate them, so they took the order, turned around and fled. Cao Jixiang was furious and shouted: "Pass the order to go down and hunt down these two wastes." ”

After being beaten, the little eunuch whose face was red and swollen for a long time and didn't dare to make a sound.

In the afternoon, Jia Xiaosi came to Dongchang and passed on the emperor's dictation, which was regarded as taking office. Although he just walked around and had no substantive orders, everyone understood who the actual person in charge of the East Factory was. Except for a dozen henchmen, no one was on Cao Jixiang's orders.

How dare the little eunuch tell the truth? I had to go to the herald. An hour later, the news came back, Jia Yue and Wan Liang were captured alive, and Zhang Ning interrogated him personally, and it was estimated that he had already obtained a confession at this time.

Cao Jixiang was shocked and angry, and said, "What a waste." ”

The little eunuch shrank in the corner like a quail and did not dare to move, for fear of becoming a punching bag.

The fan who came to report the news said: "Father-in-law, you still have to think about what to do." ”

The assassination of the three members of the dynasty will inevitably shake the government and the opposition, and he does not have the power of Wang Zhen, how can he bear it? No need to be reminded, Cao Jixiang was almost scared.

…………

Zhang Ning brought the two Jia Yue and Wan Liang to the Jinyi Weidong Courtyard, and when they asked, the two of them were recruited, and they did not forget to ask Lu Yiqiang for help in interceding, especially Wan Liang, who made friendships and promises with tears in his eyes, and Zhang Ning was speechless for a while.

Lu Yiqiang thought for a while and said, "My lord, these two are good, why don't you let them stay?" ”

"Brother Lu, thank you for your great kindness, my little brother will repay you by being a cow and a horse in the next life." Wan Liang's eyes were full of tears, and at Lu Yiqiang's sentence, his hope of life doubled.

Jia Yue also cast a grateful glance at Lu Yiqiang, although it was not as explicit as Wan Liang said, but the meaning was the same.

Zhang Ning smiled and said, "How can the imperial court tolerate blasphemy? If someone comes, lock them up, wait for your majesty to be announced, and deal with them according to law. ”

"My lord, they can't help it." Lu Yiqiang was glad that he saw the opportunity quickly, refused to be an assassin, and escaped from the East Factory, otherwise these two former companions would be his fate.

"Yes, yes, we are pumping for Cao Jixiang's eunuch." Wan Liang kowtowed again and again, and said, "Ask the adults to open the net." ”

"If you succeed in the assassination, will you open up to this website? Come on, bring it down. ”

Zhang Ning's last sentence was to Ren Rong and Senior Brother Gao, and the two of them were on guard every step to prevent Jia Yue and Wan Lianggou from jumping off the wall in a hurry and hurting people, so they were ordered to escort the two of them away.

They have their own sons to guard them.

…………

The night was dark, but there were many people at the palace gate, and the officials were either whispering or contemplating. Zhang Fu looked up and found Zhang Ning in a python robe, and thought that he was wrong, this kid was very lazy, since he didn't have to go to the palace to take a shift, he was lazy to sleep at home, and rarely went to court.

Zhang Fu took a closer look through the starlight, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like it, the young man with broad shoulders and bee waist, how could he be compared to his hometown? It's just that why is he wearing a white belt and walking slowly? He was about to say hello when he heard a clear voice say, "Grandpa Guo, what are you looking at?" ”

Isn't this voice Zhang Ning? He said, "What's going on?" You're willing to wake up early. "Now you can't scold when you open your mouth, you can hit when you stretch out your hand. Zhang Fu was a little stunned and a little relieved at the same time.

Zhang Ning said: "This official was assassinated, and he almost couldn't see Grandpa Guo." ”

"What?" Zhang Fu was shocked and said in disbelief: "What did you say? "Who dares to assassinate the commander of the Jinyi Guard? Who has such courage?

Zhang Ning said: "Grandpa Guo, my little nephew was assassinated last night and almost died, cough cough cough." A series of coughs drew the eyes around.

Zhang Fu grabbed it, looked him up and down, and said, "Are you hurt?" ”

Zhang Ning was speechless, didn't you see that the python robe was covered with bandages? I'm acting in a full set, why don't you know how to cooperate?

In the line of sight, a sharp-eyed person found the white cloth tied to Zhang Ning's left shoulder, and said curiously: "This is?" ”

Some people even walked around in front of Zhang Ning, saw Zhang Ning's face clearly, and said strangely: "Lord Zhang, what are you doing?" "Why is there a white belt wrapped around the python robe? Isn't your father, Uncle An, in Beijing? He shouldn't have died.

Zhang Fu pushed the official away and said in a trembling voice, "Hurt? ”

Asked first if he was hurt, it can be seen that he really cares, Zhang Ning's heart warmed, pointed to the blood stains deliberately smeared on the strap on his chest, and said, "It's only one step away from the Ghost Gate." ”

Zhang Fu grabbed his hand and said, "What about people?" Caught or not? ”

The movement here has attracted the attention of countless officials, and many people are asking, "What's going on?" "There are also people who are schadenfreude, no matter what happens to Zhang Ning, they are happy to see it.

Zhang Ning ignored the officials who were asking one after another, and said to Zhang Fu: "Caught it." ”

"What's going on?" The movement here attracted the attention of Yang Shiqi, who had just arrived, and as soon as he spoke, everyone automatically got out of the way and let Yang Shiqi pass.

"Father-in-law." Zhang Ning said: "My son-in-law almost can't see you." ”

Zhang Fu said crisply: "Lord Shoufu, my grandson-in-law was assassinated and injured, and the assassin has been caught." ”

"What?" Yang Shiqi was shocked, grabbed Zhang Ning's arm, and said with concern: "How could he be assassinated?" How does it hurt? Have you ever asked the Imperial Doctor to take a look? ”

Zhang Ning felt his heartfelt concern, his heart warmed slightly, and said, "I've seen it." Grandfather-in-law don't worry. ”

"How can I not be worried?" Yang Shiqi was anxious and said, "Where is the assassin?" Did you confess? ”

"Recruited." Zhang Ning saw that Yang Shiqi was angry, and his body was shaking, for fear that he would be too old to bear it, so he supported him with his backhand and said, "I am here to face you." ”

Everyone who heard it understood the purpose of Zhang Ning's coming to the court today.

Yang Shiqi nodded and didn't ask any more.

At this moment, the bell rang melodiously, the palace gate slowly opened, and the hundred officials lined up in two columns according to their ranks, and entered the palace gate in turn.

Zhu Qizhen sat on the throne, glanced at the hundred officials who worshiped below as usual, and unexpectedly found Zhang Ning in the column, and said strangely: "Zhang Qing has something?" ”

Young people are snooze, who will get up early in the morning if it's okay? Zhu Qizhen was forced to do so, he was the emperor, and if he wanted to take a leave, the civil officials would blow up their nests.

Zhang Ning bowed and saluted: "The minister was assassinated last night, fortunately, the minister's coachman tried his best to block the assassin, otherwise the minister would never see His Majesty again." ”

Zhu Qizhen was shocked: "Qing was assassinated? Then he looked suspicious and said, "The blood stains on Qing's body? Just a quick glance, there were many people in front of the hall, he didn't pay attention, at this moment under the bright candlelight, Zhang Ning's left chest was covered with a white cloth, and the white cloth was bright red, which was so shocking.

"Someone come, pass on the imperial doctor." Zhu Qizhen didn't have time to wait for Zhang Ning to answer, and hurriedly said, "Pass a few more." ”
