Chapter 792: The Big Case - The Truth (II)

However, after discussing with several other people, Su Dongli found that it was very unreliable to want to assassinate Yunxi.

According to Yun Xi's previous practice of traveling, even when he was marching, he was escorted by 1,800 people, and the closest people living in the palace must have been the people brought from the capital, and it was almost impossible for them to succeed in assassinating unless they could place their own people in the palace or the upper guards; And their intelligence network in Daming obviously can't do these two things.

In addition, it is not easy to send people to the land of Daming except for the two cities. The people of Daming must have a road guide to travel, even if the merchant does not need to be approved to go out now, he must also carry a household registration certificate. What's more, in addition to the Semu people who were absorbed from the Ming Dynasty, they couldn't even speak Chinese, and they were foreigners when they heard it, even if a person with an oriental appearance wanted to mix into Guangdong in large quantities.

They thought about it and had to give up the idea of assassination. But Su Dongli was very unwilling, and still planned to assassinate Yun Xi in private. After the head of the Timurid Khanate's Ming intelligence network found out that he was still acting in private, in order to prevent his actions from being noticed by the Ming court and causing the entire intelligence network to be destroyed, he temporarily sent him to other countries. It is also common for foreign businessmen to leave the city suddenly, and it does not arouse everyone's suspicion.

He was sent to Champa. At this time, there were both Tianfang believers, Brahmanical believers, and Buddhist believers, among which Brahmanism and Buddhism had a good relationship, and the relationship with the people in Tianfang was very poor, and the places where the two sides lived were distinct.

In order to facilitate activities, Su Dongli hid his beliefs in Daming's city, but there was no need to do it in Zhancheng; What's more, it was really troublesome to hide his faith in Champa, so he made his faith public and lived in the Tianfang cult gathering area.

Here, he met the Oud shaman, who had just been accepted into the intelligence services of the Timurid Khanate. Although Majapahit was beaten by the Ming Dynasty in the first year of its establishment and had to give up a large number of overseas territories, although it was very deferential on the surface, all people of insight in the country were very resentful of the Ming Dynasty. Although Wude is not a man of insight, as a devout Celestial Sect, he also dislikes pagan countries like the Ming Dynasty.

However, at first, Su Dongli didn't think of using Ude's witchcraft to murder Yun Xi, just because they both hated Da Ming very much, so they drank together in their free time and scolded Da Ming. Once they drank too much, Wude mentioned that one of his apprentices was now making a living in the Guangzhou Mansion of the Ming Dynasty, and he was very happy to combine medicine for a very powerful local person in Guangzhou, and killed a lot of Ming people.

Su Dongli felt that he had vaguely thought of something at that time, and asked: "I was also in Guangdong, Ming Kingdom, in the past, which family did your apprentice combine medicine for in Guangzhou?" Maybe I know. ”

"It's a surname surnamed Mingguo, what is high, I heard that someone in their family is a deputy of a department in the imperial court of Mingguo, and he is in a high position." Ude said.

Su Dongli immediately reacted: Isn't this the family of Gao Xianchen, who is in front of the squire of the Criminal Department. Because of Gao Xianchen, their family is now the first family in Guangzhou except for the hereditary generals of the guard, and they are very powerful.

At that time, Su Dongli was dazed and didn't think much of it, and when he came back and woke up, he thought: You can use witchcraft, the so-called witchcraft of the Ming Dynasty, to deal with Yun Xi, and even kill him.

Su Dongli immediately found Ude and told him what he thought; Wude was a little hesitant at first, after all, although he hated Da Ming very much, but in his opinion, Da Ming was a tiger's den in Longtan that he couldn't easily go, and his little life was very important and couldn't be buried easily.

But he couldn't help Su Dongli's persuasion, and his apprentice who disguised himself as a Taoist didn't have any problems in Daming, so he agreed.

Su Dongli immediately returned to Bao'an City with Ude and told the head of the intelligence agency his thoughts. After much thought, the man thought he could give it a try, and agreed.

"......, Your Majesty, after that, Wude infiltrated Guangzhou City, and Su Dongli asked for naturalization of the Ming Dynasty. Then the next thing was that they gathered people to collect and cut the life, and used the 'items' from the harvest and the cut to arrange the formation in an attempt to kill His Majesty and destroy the luck of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Your Majesty, do you remember when you went to Zhenhai Tower to inspect, there was no big boat on the river, but you saw a flash of light? In fact, it was Su Dongli sitting on a small fishing boat and holding a clairvoyant to see if Zhenhai Tower was easy to destroy, and the glass lens of the clairvoyant reflected the bright light of the sun. After discovering that his clairvoyance would reflect sunlight, he immediately put away his clairvoyance, so His Majesty did not see the light again. ”

"A few days ago, when Concubine Hui was evil, Mingliang, the 'Taoist priest' of Xiaoguan who had come to the palace twice, was disguised by Wude. At that time, Ude cast a spell for His Majesty and Concubine Hui at the same time, but His Majesty was fine, but Concubine Hui Niangniang was unconscious, and Ude conspired to kill His Majesty in order to perform his last trick, so he took the risk of meeting His Majesty with a little monkey in his arms, so that the little monkey could remember His Majesty's scent, so that he could enter the palace at night with his nose to murder His Majesty. ”

"Not only the marks on the glass windows were left by the monkey, but the serum next to the windows was also smeared by the monkeys."

"Whether Your Majesty asks or not, he always says this: Although the Wizard Oude has lost his conscience, he cherishes his life very much, and if he releases the monkey when he meets His Majesty, he is fifty percent sure that he can harm His Majesty's life, but he himself cannot live anyway, so he just took the little monkey into the palace to remember His Majesty's smell, and did not murder His Majesty at that time."

"They didn't buy the people that His Majesty brought from the capital, but just used the Gao family to buy a few subordinates who worked in the outer courtyard of the palace, and told them to report to them if they felt that there was anything wrong with the palace, or if His Majesty didn't show up for a few days."

“……”

When Qian Minglin was preparing to report to Yun Xi in person, he had rehearsed like this.

"There are even those tooth lines involved? They helped the people of the Timurid Khanate to send Oude and others into the city, and also helped Oude cast spells on Yang Bu's envoy and others. Chen Ji, the scholar next to Yun Xi, said in surprise: "Are these teeth blinded? Why do you do such a thing? ”

Hu Yan, another Chinese scholar, knew why this was happening. "Brother Chen, these Yaxing are living in difficulty because of His Majesty's many wills, and they are quite dissatisfied with the imperial court, and they want to make a fuss, but Yang Bu's political envoy ignores them. They then wanted to make Yang Bu and others sick, so that no one would carry out His Majesty's reforms, and their livelihood could be maintained for the time being. ”

"If the minister's expectation is correct, after His Majesty came to Guangzhou to announce the suspension of the rest of the reforms, these Yaxing actually have the intention of retreating, but how can the people of the Timurid Khanate such as Ude allow them to retreat? They can only go to the black in the same way as Gao Jingde. ”

While they were talking, Wang Xi walked in and reported: "Your Majesty, Wudang sent Zhang Zhenren to ask for a meeting." ”

"Xuanzhang real person audience." Yun Xi said this, and immediately instructed Hu Yan: "You will draft an order now, and order the people who came out according to Su Dongli's confession to search for these people in Bao'an City, Shanghu City, and Guangzhou Fucheng; And to arrest all those who might have been sent by the Timurid Khanate and who had taken refuge in the Timurid Khanate. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Hu Yan agreed and began to draft the will.

As he spoke, Zhang Sanfeng had already walked in. After Yun Xi finished saluting him, he asked, "Zhang Zhenren, the truth of the whole matter has been generally understood through Qian Minglin's report, but there are a few things that I still don't understand. ”

"First, I've heard that monkeys are similar to people, and if you get close to me, you can smell me, and from outside the palace, you can smell me and find where I am? I don't believe it. ”

"Second, even if the monkey can find it, the monkey's finger is not iron, how can it make a 'stinging' and 'stinging' sound on the glass?"

"Third, why did Ude use witchcraft on Concubine Hui?"

Yun Xi's rest of his doubts have been understood with this report, but only these three doubts have not been solved, so he asked Zhang Sanfeng.

"Your Majesty, a very small monkey is different from a big monkey, but similar to a cat or a dog, etc., with a very smart nose, as long as they know the smell of a person, they can follow the smell to find this person."

"Second, the wizard of Naud made a very small ring of fine steel for the little monkey he was carrying, and put it on the monkey's middle finger, so that he could kill people from it. Your Majesty, this monkey of Oude is not the ink monkey that Poor Dao had predicted before, and I don't know what kind of monkey it is or where it is born in Poor Dao, but I have seen it once, and it is said to be a small monkey from a certain place in the Western Ocean (Indian Ocean). At that time, he heard the man say that when this monkey was feeding in the forest, it would use its middle finger to tap the bark of the tree to determine whether there was a hole, and then cut open and dig out the insects inside. Local shamans use this to train these monkeys to kill. Most of the Ud-Ud wizards are the same, trying to murder His Majesty like this. The ring on which the monkey wore was quenched with poison, and it was very easy to kill. ”

"Third, the Ud Wizard used evil magic to deal with Concubine Hui, in fact, he wanted to instruct Concubine Hui to murder His Majesty; Although Concubine Hui Niangniang was very light, she didn't want to murder His Majesty, so she fell unconscious. Zhang Sanfeng explained.

"I see, I see, I said that the situation of Concubine Hui when she was in a coma was not the same as me, and I also wondered that there were two kinds of spells that Ude used to make people unconscious, and it turned out that Concubine Hui was cast with another spell." Yun Xi said.

At this point, all of Yun Xi's doubts have been solved, and he bowed his head and said nothing.

Everyone thought that Yun Xi was thinking about how to deal with these people, so they sat quietly on the edge of the bed and waited for his orders; But after a while, they heard Yunxi say: "It seems that Timur will definitely be like the Mongols back then, and even the Jin and Liao people invaded the Central Plains." ”
