Text Chapter 329 Barricades
In the eyes of everyone in the Han family, Zhao Ting'er's status will not be recognized, and everyone took advantage of the early hour to discuss who among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty was not involved with the crown prince and the second prince, and the family was worthy of his Han family and could complement each other.
Of course, Feng Yi was standing behind Han Daoxun today, and everyone also thought in their hearts that the Han clan was about to reach the peak of the moment, so they had to prevent the disaster of the Feng family from repeating itself on them.
Thinking of this, Han Daoming glanced at the Mingju Hall, in addition to his own sons and nephews, Feng Yu and Zhao Kuo were also close confidants, so he motioned to the young sons and nephews who were not stable enough to retreat and rest first, and then leaned forward, subconsciously lowered his voice and asked Han Daoxun: "There are rumors that His Majesty intends to make the Han family lead the post of assassin in Xuzhou, is this true?" β
Although Xuzhou is located in a corner, it is a place where Han and Yi live together and are plagued by plague, but if you really want to give it to any family, the weight of its reward is no less than that of the prince.
Even if there was such a statement before the war to cut the domain, and such a statement came directly from the palace, everyone guessed at the time that this was to reassure the hearts of Han Daoxun and Han Qian's father and son.
Because at that time, for the imperial court, it was also a very cost-effective deal to exchange Xuzhou for the other seven states in Hunan.
However, it is difficult to say whether Emperor Tianyou will admit such a promise if the war of cutting the feudal domain is going so smoothly.
Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and Han Daoxun also feels that sometimes there shouldn't be anything wrong.
It's just that it's been a month since Han Daoxun went to Jinling to serve as Jing Zhaoyin, and it stands to reason that the imperial court should have sent a new person to replace Han Daoxun as the assassin of Xuzhou.
Han Daoxun, as the squire of the ministry, also participated in the selection of a few candidates from the ministry, and asked His Majesty to set the decision.
However, the twists and turns about the appointment of the new candidates for the Xuzhou Assassin History were all sealed in Liuzhong, so that Han Daoxun was still holding the post of Xuzhou Assassin at this time, leading the military and political affairs of Xuzhou from afar, and Han Daoxun's mind couldn't help but be a little lively.
Many official positions in Chenzhou are led by large local families, Xuzhou is more dangerous than Chenzhou, and the situation of Han Yi mixed living is more complicated, and strong people are needed to stabilize the situation.
Han Daoxun smiled bitterly and said, "I haven't heard of this, and you don't have to hear about it, big brother." β
Han Daoxun thought that his life's ambition was to cut down the strong and strong, so that the world could cut the war as soon as possible, who would have wanted to cut the war of the domain, but his father and son first became a powerful family with tens of thousands of acres of land, more than a dozen craftsmen's workshops, 300 military units, more than 300 slaves and maids, and thousands of mercearies.
Although these things are all in Han Qian's hands, Han Daoxun also knows that there is no need for additional subsidies for the Dragon Bird Army, and the more than a dozen craftsman workshops built in Xuzhou in recent years can make huge profits of 70,000 or 80,000 yuan every year.
Han Daoxun didn't want to dwell too much on this kind of issue, so he stood up and said goodbye to the old father and son, and left with Feng Yi, Zhao Kuo and others.
Surrounded by many guards led by Zhao Wuji and Zhao Kuo, Han Daoxun left the mansion by car, all the way muddy and calm, seeing that Lanting Lane was in front, suddenly there was a warning sound in front of him, Zhao Wuji reined in his horse, and signaled everyone on the left and right to protect the carriage and stop and be careful.
"What's wrong?" Han Daoxun lifted the curtain and looked out, and at this time, the two guards blocked the left and right with their bodies to prevent nearby assassins with bows and crossbows from secretly coveting the place.
"There should be an unknown figure in the way." Zhao Wuji leaned over and explained to Han Daoxun while sending someone to visit.
"Although it's night, you can't be sure that the neighbors will go out in a hurry at night, so you don't want to make a fuss." Han Do-hoon said.
"Be careful." Feng Yi persuaded on the side.
Han Daoxun didn't insist, and motioned to Zhao Wuji to go and see what was going on in front of him, and through the car window, he asked Feng Yi in a low voice: "How much are you hiding from me?" β
"What does Feng Yi dare to hide from your lord?" Feng Yi said.
"If there's nothing going on, why make such a fuss?" Han Daoxun glanced at Feng Yi dissatisfiedly and asked, how could he be so easy to deceive?
"The lord took office as Jing Zhaoyin, and it was rumored all over the city that His Majesty was going to abolish the heir and re-establish it, and the young master knew about it, and he always had to guard against someone who would jump over the wall in a hurry." Feng Yi said quietly.
Han Daoxun sighed lightly, knowing that he couldn't move Feng Yi, and said to Zhao Kuo: "You go to the front to see, what's going on?" β
After Zhao Kuoce disappeared into the night, after a while, accompanied by two scouts, he rushed back with a young man who was less than twenty years old, and told Han Daoxun: "This person blocked the street to complain? β
Zhao Wuji reluctantly followed Zhao Kuo back.
Feng Yu looked at the little guy brought back by Zhao Kuo, his eyes were full of suspicion, and when he saw Han Daoxun about to get out of the car, he hurriedly persuaded him: "How can there be a reason to stop the street in the middle of the night and file a complaint?" My lord, I think it's better to drive this person away, and let him go to the government tomorrow to deliver the paper. β
Inheriting the old system of the previous dynasty, Han Daoxun, as Jing Zhaoyin, not only the criminal prison prosecution complaints in Jinling City and Fu County were under his jurisdiction, but also had the right to accept complaints from other states and counties, and his authority in criminal prisons was equivalent to that of Dali Temple, Yushitai and the Criminal Department, and Jing Zhaoyin was usually called the Small Criminal Department.
If there is any grievance in the local area, when he goes to Jinling to sue the royal complaint, he usually hands the pleadings into the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, but the pleadings are also submitted layer by layer, and it is impossible to directly hand them over to Han Daoxun. As for the intention to break into the gate of the imperial city, even if he is not hacked to death by the blade, a stick will have to cut several layers of skin.
With the light of the Qi Death Wind Lamp, Feng Yi saw the frightened and resolute face of the young man, maybe he really had some grievances to state, but he could know that the Han Mansion was in Lanting Lane, and he happened to block the street when Han Daoxun returned from the mansion night banquet, he didn't believe that things would be simple.
Feng Yu thought that it would be better for him to detain the person first, figure out what was going on, and then hand it over to Han Daoxun to deal with.
"It's still early, let's see if he has any grievances to appeal, and there is no hindrance," Han Daoxun motioned to Zhao Kuo to bring the little guy to the car and asked, "You blocked the street in the middle of the night, what do you have to complain about?" β
"The villain Zhou Zhi is the eunuch of the Inner Servant Bureau of the Inner Servant Bureau, and when the young eunuch Shen He was alive, he had heard the call in front of the young eunuch Shen. Shen He went to Tanzhou to proclaim the decree, and after returning to Beijing, he was seriously infected with the epidemic and died, and the Medical Bureau diagnosed that Shen Shaojian was unfortunately infected with miasma in Tanzhou, but in fact, before Shen Shaojian left Beijing and went to Tanzhou, he was seriously unwell, and he was really victimized by the rape and died of poisoning. The villain blocked the street to avenge the grievances of Young Eunuch Shen! The little guy lay in front of the car, slammed his head and kowtowed, shouting grievances.
Feng Yi couldn't suppress the shock in his heart and looked left and right, and a chill rushed up from the tail vertebrae:
Shen He's death, he knows the details best, and the two eunuchs who were waiting in front of Shen He when he was dying were all excused by the instigators behind the scenes, where did the person in front of him come from?
And this one is called Zhou Zhi, how did he know that they returned to Lanting Lane from the Han family's mansion at this time?
Who is behind the scenes?
Feng Yi stubbornly said to Han Daoxun: "Listening to his nonsense, even if Young Eunuch Shen has a hidden secret, this case should not be taken over by Jingzhao Mansion." β
Jingzhao Mansion has the power to receive complaints from prefectures and counties other than Jinling, but there is also a provision that Jingzhao Yin is arbitrary in small matters and decides on major matters, which means that in cases like those involving the illness and death of a person at the level of the young eunuch of the Inner Servant Province, Jingzhao Mansion still has to transfer it and is not qualified to deal with it.
Otherwise, Jingzhao Mansion would be a "super criminal department", not a "small criminal department".
Han Daoxun's expression was solemn, his brows frowned lightly, as if he was pressed by a mountain, looked at Feng Yi, and asked in a heavy tone, "Did you already know that there was a secret reason why Shen Shaojian died of the epidemic?" β
Feng Yi was speechless, not knowing how to answer.
Han Daoxun's pupils were covered with a shadow, could it be that Qian'er did everything to hide was the real cause of Shen He's death?
Han Daoxun ignored Feng Yi's advice, and said directly to Zhou Zhi in front of the car: "You hand over the pleadings first...... "Even if this case is not under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion, he can accept the pleadings."
Feng Yi's head was as big as hemp, and he couldn't guess who was behind the back for a while, but when he thought of revealing the mystery of Shen He's illness and death, especially when the lid was lifted by Han Daoxun's hand, his heartskin would be numb for a while, and he really didn't know what kind of waves this matter would set off, but he couldn't force Zhou Zhi in front of him, who claimed to be the eunuch of the Inner Servant Bureau, away!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the depths of the alley opposite Lanting Lane, in the dark shadow that the moonlight could not illuminate, there was a black carriage parked, like a fierce beast squatting in the night, staring at the movement at the entrance of Lanting Lane opposite.
The light was dim and far away, except for a little blurred light and shadow, it was impossible to see the situation at the entrance of Lanting Alley really, but there was no loud noise, showing that everything was going as planned.
Yin Peng, the governor of the Chuzhou Pavilion, stood next to the carriage, and saw Wang Wenqian sitting in the carriage like a statue through the window, motionless, and did not seem to care about what would happen if Zhou Zhi stopped Han Daoxun's carriage.
"Shen He's poisoning and death, Tanzhou should have secretly played Your Majesty a long time ago, and Your Majesty then transferred Han Daoxun to Jinling, which should also be a response to this matter, why did your Excellency go so hard to find Zhou Zhi?" Yin Peng asked puzzled.
"Shen He was poisoned and died, and Chen Xingmo served Chongwen Hall in front of him, it can only be done behind the scenes of Anning Palace - if Your Majesty is determined to set up the third prince as his heir, after transferring Han Daoxun to Jinling, it is impossible for a month to pass without other actions - I suspect that Tanzhou did not secretly tell His Majesty about Shen He's poisoning, but deliberately released false news to calm our hearts!" Wang Wenqian said unhurriedly.
"My lord is saying that Mr. Ziheng's deeds have been revealed?" Yin Peng asked suspiciously.
"Ziheng's line is not revealed, as long as you see if Han Daoxun will take on this case, you will know." Wang Wenqian said.
"That's not right, hiding the poisoning of Shen He from the outside world, from beginning to end, it was Han Qian's plan for the third prince, Han Daoxun has no reason not to know, the adults took such great effort to find out Zhou Zhi to test Han Daoxun, isn't it Yuanmu begging for fish?" Yin Peng asked suspiciously.
"You don't know Han Daoxun's temperament, Han Daoxun and his son Han Qian are actually not all the way, do you think Han Daoxun has been a stranger to the Han family all these years, and he is really selling his reputation and pretending to be seen by the world?"
Wang Wenqian glanced at Yin Peng in the faint light and said,
"If Han Qian really concealed the poisoning of Shen He from the outside world as Ziheng's secret letter said, and His Majesty secretly knew about it, then there was really no need for them to hide it from Han Daoxun; However, if Ziheng had been deceived by Han Qian, then Han Daoxun would probably have been kept in the dark by Han Qian, and he didn't know the detailsβyou would find the secret line in Jingzhao Mansion tomorrow, contact Zhou Zhi, and ask Han Daoxun how he reacted after knowing the truth about Shen He's poisonous death, and the matter would almost be cleared out......"
"Why did they hide this from Your Majesty, and if Your Majesty didn't know about it, why did you transfer Han Daoxun back to the court?" Yin Peng was still puzzled.
"They concealed Your Majesty, the reason is very simple, they are afraid that Your Majesty will transfer troops and horses from Chuzhou to cross the river, and they have just finished fighting a battle in Tanzhou, and the Dragon Bird Army has just been expanded, and they are not ready for anything. Although the third prince is young and young, his eagerness for the throne is much more urgent than you think," Wang Wenqian said, "As for why Your Majesty wants to transfer Han Daoxun to the court?" I heard that His Majesty has been unwell recently, maybe he really wants to settle the matter of appointing the third prince as his heir soon, right? β
"Your Majesty is unwell, will he also be touched by the people of the Anning Palace?" Yin Peng asked.
"Let's make sure that Your Majesty and Han Daoxun don't know about Shen He's poisoning, if they really don't know, things may be even more complicated than we imagined!" Wang Wenqian said, "You arrange the boat, as soon as this matter is confirmed, I will go back to Chuzhou with Jun'er!" β
Thinking that the monstrous waves were likely to be set off, and thinking of the earth-shattering killing machine hidden behind him, Yin Peng's vest was also a chill......
