Chongzhen finally decided to leave all the ministers aside and send troops to act secretly. Mao Wenlong is now a serious threat to the safety of the Great Ming Dynasty, and Chongzhen must be eliminated before he rises.

And Chongzhen himself can use not many soldiers and horses, in addition to the Shenji Battalion, there are only the Ouchi guards and the Jinyi Guard, as well as the two factories that have existed in name only. If the Shenji Battalion wants to defend the Beijing Division, it will inevitably be impossible to send it out.

Then only Jinyiwei and the East and West factories are left, and these three forces are not capable of striking at Mao Wenlong in an open and honest manner, so they can only assassinate Mao Wenlong in secret.

That night, after Chongzhen made up his mind, he secretly summoned the commander of the Jinyi Guard in the imperial study. The East Factory and the West Factory are now under the supervision of Wu Chengen, and these two factories are now in name only.

is like an empty yamen, the errands are all newcomers, and they are all rookies, so there is no way to go and assassinate Mao Wenlong. But in order to relieve Chongzhen's worries, Wu Chengen did not hesitate to raise the six leaders from the prison who were waiting to be executed.

These six people are definitely the backbone of the previous Wei Party, and they are also the people of the year in the two factories, and they are definitely ruthless.

Chongzhen first met with the new commander of the Jinyi Guard, who was a middle-aged man who was formerly the chief of the guard in Ouchi. After the former commander of the Jinyi Guard died under Adou's arrows, Chongzhen promoted him to his post.

"The commander of the Jinyi Guard, all Xiaotian see the emperor." Du Xiaotian said a flying fish suit, pinned an embroidered spring knife to his waist, and knelt down in front of Chongzhen's dragon case.

"Flat."

Chongzhen looked at Du Xiaotian coldly, and was silent for a moment before speaking: "I have something entrusted to you. ”

Du Xiaotian didn't dare to slack off, and immediately clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, please speak." ”

Chongzhen said indifferently: "Jinyiwei is a sword in my hand, pointing wherever it starts, and the ministers are also quite scrupulous. But now the courtiers are quite suspicious of you, and they have never given you a good face. Recently, he was forced to die in name only. ”

Du Xiaotian's face changed slightly, Chongzhen actually said such a thing, he felt that what he had to do this time was not simple.

Sure enough, Chongzhen quickly continued: "Whether Jinyiwei can rise again depends on your performance this time. As long as you are able to complete the task I have given you, I can assure you that I will fully support you in the future. ”

Du Xiaotian was slightly startled, and at the same time he was also a little excited. You must know that since he was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he was squeezed out by the courtiers, and when he was the chief of the guard in the past, the ministers were wooed in every way.

The treatment of the two before and after can not be justified in a few words. Du Xiaotian originally thought that this was the result of his old age, but now, obviously, the opportunity has come, will his good days be far away when Jinyiwei rises?

"Please make it clear to the emperor, Du Xiaotian will not hesitate even if his liver and brain are smeared!" There is nothing to hesitate about, a companion is like a tiger, and it is better to sacrifice his life than to be refrigerated in the end.

Chongzhen was very satisfied, he nodded and said, "I want you to assassinate a person, this person is in Ye County, named Mao Wenlong." ”

Du Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, and a trace of hesitation flashed on his face. He had heard of Mao Wenlong, and he had recently inquired a lot about Chongzhen about him. Therefore, Du Xiaotian still knows Mao Wenlong well.

He felt that this task was indeed difficult, but Du Xiaotian was willing to challenge, success or failure in this move, whether to live in a nest for a lifetime, or to fight, after success, it would be a beautiful scenery.

Obviously, Du Xiaotian didn't have any hesitation, he chose the latter: "Obey!" ”

Chongzhen nodded with satisfaction, then grabbed a piece of jade pendant from the dragon case, threw it to Du Xiaotian, and said coldly: "Seeing the jade pendant is like seeing me, be careful outside." This thing should never be used lightly until the last minute. ”

Du Xiaotian stretched out his hand to catch the flying jade pendant, only to see that the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing on it were engraved with the four big characters of 'Ru I am here'. Du Xiaotian was even a joy, holding the jade pendant tightly, he knelt down and promised: "My subordinates will not live up to the emperor's trust." ”

Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Go, go and prepare now, it's best to be able to set off tonight." I am waiting for your good news in Beijing. ”

"The subordinates retired." Du Xiaotian kowtowed heavily, and then left quickly.

As soon as Du Xiaotian left, Wu Chengen, who had been waiting outside for a while, walked in quickly, bowed down to Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, the person has been brought, just waiting outside the palace." ”

Chongzhen immediately said coldly: "Let them in." ”

"Yes!" Wu Chengen responded, raised his head and shouted outside: "Come in." ”

The sound fell, and the six men walked in in order, and then knelt down in front of the dragon case one by one.

The door to the imperial study closed, and the room suddenly fell into an eerie silence, and only the slight breathing of a few people could be heard.

Chongzhen was looking at the six people, and the latter was also looking at Chongzhen. Neither side spoke, as dying people, these six masters no longer have the slightest scruples about Chongzhen, let alone the slightest awe.

After all, they all know that they will die at any time, and they are not even afraid of death, will they be afraid of someone who wants to kill them?

After a long time, Chongzhen suddenly spoke: "You are all guilty of great sins, and you should be executed immediately!" ”

One of the six people in charge sneered: "If you want to kill, you have to kill casually, since ancient times, we have become kings and defeated cowards, and we have lost and taken a small life." ”

"Bold!" Wu Chengen even snorted coldly.

Chongzhen didn't care about the rudeness of the master at all, he waved his hand to calm Wu Chengen down, and then sneered: "If I'm not mistaken, you should be the big boss of the East Factory, right?" ”

The master frowned, and then said brightly: "It's me." ”

"Good!"

Chongzhen suddenly laughed, and continued: "Nearly a year of imprisonment has not wiped out your blood, and there is indeed something extraordinary. You should have been executed, but I want to give you a chance, if you can do it, then not only do you not have to die in the future, but you can also return to the East and West Factories, be your factory father, and revive the majesty of the East and West Factories. ”

The six of them were immediately shocked, and after looking at each other and exchanging glances, it was still the master who spoke: "This is true." ”

Chongzhen chuckled, picked up the tea on the dragon case and took a sip before saying, "You have no jokes!" ”

As soon as the master asked, "What do you want us to do?" ”

Chongzhen lowered his face coldly, and said in a dark voice: "Kill someone, kill a person named Mao Wenlong." ”

The master suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and became relaxed: "Killing people is our old business, and we can agree." But after the matter is completed, we are not unfamiliar with the East Factory or the West Factory, and we only hope that the emperor can return our freedom and no longer care about any previous mistakes of the six of us. ”
