There were many stubborn soldiers standing outside the noon gate, not to count, exactly one hundred, all of them were officers and soldiers under Jinyiwei. Ji Gang and Haitao walked outside the noon gate together, and when they passed by the guards and a few brocade guards, they hugged their fists and saluted.

Ji Gang nodded, unintentionally talking to them.

The eunuch Haitao glanced at the city tower, and a eunuch on it stretched his neck to look at it for a while, and then said, "Open the door on the left." ”

The city gate next to the main gate of the noon gate slowly opened. Ji Gang walked towards the open door step by step, and at this time there was a momentary blank in his head.

For several years, his life has been stable. Ji Gang also knew in his heart that he had offended many people and wanted him to die, and he usually guarded against it; But after all, the people in the palace favored him, and no one could touch him. Today seems to be different, and suddenly, Ji Gang has to face the choice of a lifetime.

Ji Gang gently wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and walked into the palace gate with a hard head. The eunuch next to him gave him a cold look.

What was waiting for Ji Gang was an unknown fate, and he had been very nervous and worried in his heart, but he still didn't stop. Because he couldn't find a reason to stop, let alone think of refusing the prince's call.

Ji Gang thought in his heart that if God let him survive this catastrophe smoothly, he would definitely donate money to a temple when he turned around, and then go to relieve those poor people. He is not a hypocrite, because Jinyiwei has always only been an official, who cares about civilians who have no power, no power and no money? The emperor doesn't care about those ordinary civilians, and Ji Gang feels that the people have no oil and water.

The two entered the palace from the noon gate, walked through a wide empty brick floor, and the towering and tall building in front was Fengtianmen.

When they walked into Fengtianmen, the eunuch Haitao bowed and said, "Lord Prince, the commander of the Jinyi Guard has arrived with Ji Gang." ”

"Humph!" The prince above made a sound.

The crown prince was sitting on one of the chairs above. The chair was placed next to the throne, Ji Gang had never seen the prince sit before, but when the saint listened to the government, sometimes the emperor and grandson Zhanji sat there.

There were still some ministers standing inside the gate, about a dozen or so.

Ji Gang couldn't care much more, and immediately prostrated on the ground, shouting: "The last general will knock on His Royal Highness the crown prince!" ”

The prince's voice said, "Ji Gang, did you enter the red pill without permission and give it to the saint?" ”

Ji Gang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "What red pill?" That's not a red pill! ”

"What's that?" The prince immediately asked.

Only then did Ji Gang come back to his senses and realize that he had just said the wrong thing. He shouldn't have admitted to sacrificing anything! Because the kind of thing he offered, no third person seems to know, and the Holy One has also said hello, so don't say it.

Maybe the saint is difficult to talk about, and he doesn't want others to know that he is not good at this aspect of his body. In fact, Ji Gang also thinks that it is human nature, the saint is nearly half a hundred years old, and it is normal to take some tonics; But the Holy One has always been very strong, and he does not want to be known to others.

At this time, it is obviously not possible to retract what was wrong in public. Ji Gang didn't want to anger the crown prince, he was now speculating about what might have happened to the saint, and if he offended the crown prince again, wouldn't he be looking for death?

He felt that he was so nervous that he said the wrong thing and regretted it.

Ji Gang had no choice but to stiffen his head and said: "It's just a tonic medicine, before the minister enters the service, he takes it himself in front of the saint, and there will definitely be no problem with the tonic medicine." Ji Gang paused for a moment, and immediately said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you listen to what the last general will say." The last general brought something in. ”

"Bring it in first." Prince Road.

Ji Gang handed the things he took from the cabinet to the eunuch Haitao, which was a dossier. Haitao took it and sent it to the upper position.

At this moment, the voice of an official next to him said: "It's really just a tonic, you didn't deceive the prince?" ”

Ji Gang glanced sideways at the person who spoke, and it turned out to be Yang Rong, an official of the East Palace. Ji Gang said in his heart: You|mother|, if it was before, Lao Zili wouldn't want to pay attention to you! You have to be careful when you see Lao Tzu, otherwise the prince will make a slight mistake, which will be caused by your instigation and slander!

However, now that the situation is reversed, Ji Gang can only admit himself as his grandson, so he replied: "The last general will not dare to deceive His Royal Highness the crown prince after eating the leopard's guts!" ”

Yang Rong said: "Then you write it down by yourself in order to prove that you are not talking nonsense." ”

Ji Gang felt that something was wrong, of course he didn't want to write, so he immediately kowtowed to the top and said, "Prince, the last general will definitely look forward to you in the future!" Look at that thing, the last general is still very useful, and it can help you do a lot of things......"

"Bold!" The prince's voice said, "You dare to stir up the feelings of our brothers, slander Gao Xu, and falsely accuse the noble ministers!" The prince then sneered, "What kind of nonsense is this, 'the civil and military roster that is good friends with the King of Han'?" The first one is actually Qiu Fu, the Duke of Qi? It's just talking nonsense with your eyes open! ”

Ji Gang was a little confused for a while, and said in his heart: Then the King of Han has been in front of the public, insulting the East Palace and the prince, at this time your brothers are still talking about feelings?

In Ji Gang's view, the crown prince and the king of Han are already incompatible. I am taking the initiative to take refuge and stand on your side, the prince! As long as you can use a word from the prince, others dare to say a word?

At this moment, a person walked in from the back door of the Imperial Gate. Ji Gang quietly looked up, and his face suddenly turned blue and white!

The person who just walked in was Xue Lu, the governor of the capital. As soon as Ji Gang saw Xue Lu coming in at this time and in this place, he immediately felt that things were getting a little wrong.

Xue Lu was the guard general of the old Yan Palace, and he did not become a marquis after his military exploits in the "Battle of Jingyan". Ji Gang speculated that he had grievances, so he stared secretly to see if he could catch some tricks.

Once, Ji Gang found that Xue Lu was hooking up with a female Taoist priest in a Taoist temple. Ji Gang then went to the Taoist temple and saw the female Taoist priest at a glance, and he didn't sleep that night. So Ji Gang wanted to take the female Taoist as his own, and regardless of the thirty-seven twenty-one, he would sleep with the Taoist priest in the Taoist temple first.

Xue Lu was furious when he heard the news, he not only was proud of his achievements, but also talked about the past of following the saint to fight the country, but also looked down on Ji Gang. Xue Lu was crying and crying to find death and find a short time, and scolded Ji Gang for being a dog. Ji Gang was suddenly furious, and he didn't get angry, so he picked up an iron melon and smashed it on Xue Lu's head.

Xue Lu fainted on the spot, was beaten to the point that his head was bleeding, and he almost died, and he was raised at home for several months before he could get out of bed. The saint did not punish Ji Gang for this, and Xue Lu also knowingly did not provoke Ji Gang, and obediently gave up the beauty and Taoism.

At this moment, Ji Gang saw Xue Luyin walking out with a smile, feeling that the whole person was not good, and he was frozen there.

Xue Lu said in a low voice: "Ji Gang, you dog, I not only have to sleep with that Dao aunt in your family, but also sleep with your wife and your little girl." ”

Yang Shiqi said: "General Xue must not declare personal vendettas, within the imperial gate, the rights and wrongs of the national society are the most important!" ”

Ji Gang hurriedly kowtowed: "The prince spares his life!" Prince, I'm a dog, a useful dog! ”

Xue Lu bowed down and took a yellow scroll from the imperial case, and read it aloud: "The queen's decree!" Jin Yiwei commanded Ji Gang, deceived the superiors and deceived the subordinates to harm Zhongliang; More widely into the lust to confuse the saint. Recently, Ji Gang slandered and took the red pill tonic without permission, and he couldn't sleep on the night of the holy service, so he went to Kunning Palace last night to talk to me and tell me the truth. I don't want the saint to go back to the Qianqing Palace this morning and fall ill.

At this time, the crown prince should be temporarily imprisoned and the Zhu approval should be changed to a blue approval. All the ministers are favored by the Ming royal family, and they should be loyal to the society, keep their duties, and assist the crown prince with their hearts. If there are those who have bad intentions and take advantage of the situation to cause chaos, please ask the crown prince to severely punish them. ”

When Ji Gang heard this, his face was like ashes, and he cried: "Wronged! What a grievance! Is there still black and white in this world? Oh my God......"

Finished! It's over! With such a big black pot lid down, Ji Gang immediately fell into endless despair, not only can't he wash it now, I'm afraid it won't be cleaned for 10,000 years.

In an instant, Ji Gang felt that his crying words seemed familiar, and the people he had engaged in in this were also the same before...... In the end, of course, no one cried out for the spirit. It seems that the pen of those officials must be memorized by Ji Gang after thousands of generations, and he will never be able to surpass his life!

At this moment, Ji Gang regretted it very much! If he knew that the East Palace actually had such a decree in his hand, he would not have entered the palace if he was killed!

It is definitely not possible to vote for the king of Han, who can bear such a big crime of murdering the saint? The king of Han fled from the capital in a hurry, if he dared to take him in Ji Gang, for fear that he would not be slandered as a conspirator and a party? With this decree, Ji Gang can't do anything, and the brothers of Jinyiwei will definitely cut him to death directly in Jinyiwei's yamen! Ji Gang regretted it for a moment, all he thought about was to run away and hide......

He didn't have time to think about it, and then he saw Xue Lu take out an iron melon from his back! The appearance and color of the iron gourd are exactly the same as the iron gourd used by Ji Gang in the Taoist temple at the beginning!

As soon as Ji Gang got up, the iron melon in Xue Lu's hand swept up with a "slam", and Ji Gang only felt that the Venus in front of him was full of sky, and he couldn't see anything.

…… The solemn and luxurious imperial gate usually only has the ink fragrance and Sven etiquette of the officials of the Hanlin Academy, but at this time, a smell of blood and blood permeated the room. Ji Gang was lying on the brick floor, and the blood flowing from his head had soaked the masonry.

Yang Rong, an official from the East Palace, walked up with a confession and a box. grabbed Ji Gang's soft hand, pressed his finger in the box, and then pressed it on the confession, and turned his head away without saying a word, without looking at Ji Gang.

The crown prince Zhu Gaochi's voice said: "The commander of the Jinyi Guard, Ji Gang, is dead, and Tan Qing is ordered to lead the Jinyi Guard. Cut off the dog's head and hang it on the tower of Chengtianmen. Immediately, the queen's Yi was read out to the Chengtianmen Tower, and it was passed on to the offices of the Thousand Steps Corridor. ”

Tan Qing hugged his fists and said: "The last general will take orders!" ”

The prince turned his head to look at Xue Lu again: "I know that you are a little wronged, and I will make the decision for you." You tell those wronged old brothers that I have justice. ”

Xue Lu hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said happily: "Thank you for the grace of the crown prince!" ”
