Wu Qianyi slashed and slaughtered in the business field and at the negotiation table, pressing step by step, and finally got everything that he and Zhou Wenzheng were plotting in Tiantong Lane. Vertices

This young man threw himself into the king's shop, the young man was castrated into the house, the middle-aged self-recommended to be used, once a pawnshop shopkeeper, and was later respected as the "shopping mall factory man" The great eunuch of the Shu Wangfu really experienced the pleasure of going from the humble to the master.

However, the east corner is gained, and the mulberry elm is lost.

Just when Wu Qianyi was a little flustered, his nominal boss, Zhu Zhihan of the Shu Clan, had already endured more than ten hours of inhuman torture in the Chu Palace.

The fierce confrontation in the Wuchang Mansion attracted everyone's attention. It wasn't until the overall situation was decided that no one noticed the unfortunate fact of Zhu Zhihan's mysterious disappearance.

……

In the damp and dark dungeon, the thick and dense wooden poles firmly bound the unkempt Zhu Zhihan in the narrow corner, less than half a step to the left and right. You can't lie down, and it's hard to squat.

There are no windows, only a faint light beating, like an everlasting lamp in a grave; There was no sound, and the surroundings were as quiet as if air had been pumped out.

In the faint light, a heavy chair leaned against the opposite wall, hemp rope tied to people and wooden barrels of chili water were thrown aside, and a large pool of liquid forced out of the stomach and lungs remained on the ground.

Zhu Zhihan grabbed the wooden pole with both hands and shook it desperately.

The wooden pole did not move at all, as if it had taken root in the ground.

The cold and humid air seeped into Zhu Zhihan's lungs, making him shiver involuntarily.

Suddenly, a dazzling light appeared above Zhu Zhihan's head. As the light flickered, several squeaky gophers appeared in the silent dungeon.

"Ahh A high-pitched, terrifying hoarse cry suddenly filled the entire space. The sound reflected back and forth on the smooth, hard stone wall, creating a buzzing echo.

"Recruit or not?" A mocking voice that was neither male nor female sounded above Zhu Zhihan's head.

"Recruited! I've got it! Zhu Zhihan's collapsed nerves answered in place of his remaining reason.

Heaven and hell are not far apart.

It was only a hundred and ten steps away from the exit of the dungeon where Zhu Zhihan was imprisoned, as if it was another world.

In the northwest of the Chu Palace, the top of the Huanghu Mountain in Wuchang City, in front of the Chu View Building.

The morning light of early autumn with a moist river breeze gently stirred the girls' clothes. The carefree age, the cheerful atmosphere, and the laughing and playful little palace maids are like a flowing multicolored cloud, which is close and far but always shrouded around Zhu Fengde, the county lord of the Chu Domain. But the county lord's interest in today's game is clearly not high, as if Ai Ai is waiting for something in the period.

The figure of a small eunuch flashed past the Huashi rockery that blocked the view and appeared on the path below the mountain.

Immediately after, another middle-aged man appeared.

The two of them are one in front of the other. The little eunuch was walking and stopping, sometimes stopping to gasp; But the middle-aged man walked steadily, and the mountain seemed to be on the ground.

"The county lord's idea is really powerful! Looking at General Zhang's calm and relaxed appearance, he must have brought good news to the county lord! The little palace maids surrounded Zhu Fengde, shook their palms, and laughed.

"Look at his hard mouth, not hard mouth!"

Zhu Fengde, who was in the heart of flowers, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She pursed her lips triumphantly and crossed her waist.

"However, the county lord still didn't expect that Zhu Zhihan could carry the tiger chair and chili water, but he was frightened by a few little rats! I'm glad you gave the lord of this county an idea......"

A clever little palace maid jumped out and said disdainfully: "I really didn't expect that there were such cheap goods in the Shu clan clan!" Smell the smell of fat powder on his body, and you will know that it is not more expensive than a hundred wen! If I want to guess, it must be those stalls by the Jinshazhou pier! I don't know which kiln he spent the night in yesterday......"

Such dirty things are also brought to the county lord and said! Isn't it fun to get stained with willow disease?

The palace maid who was older and knew more quickly interrupted with business: "Don't talk about those useless things. Xu Changshi is carrying the palace to grind the prince of Chu! The county lord had better hurry up before Xu Changshi and tell the good news to the prince soon! ”

"Now you've got the firecracker! The county lord wants to see if the county lord's ghost idea is easy to use, or Xu Changshi's acid method is easy to use! Okay, tell Zhang Qi to hurry up and keep up, let's take a shortcut and rush back to the palace! ”

The high-spirited Zhu Fengde waved his hand and ran south with her chattering women's army.

At their feet, a mountain path stretched forward. At the end of the field of vision, there is the huge and magnificent Chu Palace.

……

The sudden disappearance of Zhu Zhihan of the Shu clan caused a great shock at both the Shu family and the Huguang official mansion.

The people of the Shu system were terrified.

Not to mention the identity of the clan of Zhu Zhihanshu Domain, as the "Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary" of the prince, he lost it inexplicably, so he had to give the prince an explanation.

The Huguang government was even more alarmed.

As soon as the matter of the loan of two million was completed, there was a shocking case of fraudulent fraud; The shocking case has just been concluded, and the serious shopkeeper of this Huitong Money Bank is gone.

Tossing back and forth like this every day, do you want anyone to live!

In Wu Qianyi's "Life to see people, death to see corpses!" Under the strong request, the Huguang government took action again. However, considering the high sensitivity of Zhu Zhihan's identity, the Huguang official government did not dare to paste the sea fishing documents at the city gate like arresting Jiangyang thieves, so they could only order the yamen at the Wuchang Mansion and Jiangxia County levels to loosen the outside and tighten the inside, and quietly inspect.

A whole day passed without any news.

Wu Qianyi, who was stubbornly guarding the Wuchang Daoya and did not dare to return to the nest, was like an ant on a hot pot, restless.

That night, Yang Ji, the feudal minister and king of Wuchang Dao, made a surprising move:

He invited Wu Qianyi to the backyard on the grounds of implementing the withdrawal and delivery of goods, and discussed the wine. During the banquet, he seemed to inadvertently talk about an interesting officialdom:

East Factory Big? Huang Song came to Huguang from Sichuan a few days ago, and these days he is enjoying himself on the streets of Wuchang. The kiln sisters on Wuchang Flower Street were jealous because of the competition, and they fought on the street, and as a result, their clothes were torn, so that passers-by were fortunate to have a thorough look.

East Factory? Big?? From Sichuan? Is it in Wuchang?

When Wu Qianyi heard a few key words, he immediately pricked up his ears. Sure enough, Lord Wang still had something to say later.

Wang Dadao, said that Huang Daren is big? In fact, it is a big mistake!

Because Huang Song was born in Jinyiwei and is a serious man. Huang Song's eldest brother, Huang Fu, who was also born in Jinyiwei, is now assigned to Dongchang as the commander of the street house.

After Emperor Jiajing succeeded the emperor as a vassal king, because of the large number of people he used in Anlu to take charge of Jinyi Wei, such as Zhu Chen, Luo An, Wang Zuo, Chen Yin, Lu Bing and others, the high-level structure of Jinyiwei changed greatly.

Although the Jinyi Guard is the emperor's own army, like all the guards of the Ming Dynasty, it also implements the world military system of the death of the father and the son. To this day, most of the senior officers of Jinyiwei are still from Huguang.

For example, the Luo family, who has been in charge of Jinyiwei for three generations. From Luo An in the second year of Jiajing, to Luo Sigong in the tenth year of Wanli, and then to the current Jinyiwei Palm Seal Admiral Luo Yangxing, the ancestral home is Huguang Yongzhou.

The same is true of the two brothers Huang Fu and Huang Song, who have joined the East Factory from Jinyiwei. The two brothers are both eagle dogs, but they complement each other well and do not insult their ancestors.

Wu Qianyi and Wang Yangjixu and the Snake: Could it be that Lord Huang's ancestral home is in Wuchang? In this case, it is natural for the small people to visit the meeting at a later date. Lord Wang knows Lord Huang so well, I wonder if he can introduce it to Xiaomin?

This Lord Huang......

This official is a person from Qianshan in Anqing, who first served as the household department, and later moved to Zhejiang, and then transferred to the Ministry of Industry (Note 1)......

Wang Yangji began to support him, saying that he had no intersection with Huang Song in his work history in the past, so it was difficult to introduce him......

Then, Lord Wang seemed to inadvertently say that Huang Song's mother-in-law and eldest sister's family all lived in a certain street and a certain lane in Wuchang. Since Lord Huang is in Wuchang, he must also settle there. If Mr. Wu wants to visit, it's best to hurry. Because since the people of Dongchang have come to the place, they must take the important mission of the factory bus office with them, and they will not stay in one city and one place for too long!

Wang Yangji's intention is too obvious, and he almost relied on Wu Qianyi nakedly:

This Huang Song is suspected of kidnapping Zhu Zhihan!

The government will not help you save people. If you want to go, you can only go by yourself, and quickly!

Hurriedly bidding farewell to Wang Yangji, Wu Qianyi immediately hurried to the post house. Luo Jingyun, who is recuperating from his injuries, as well as Lin Yan, Li Sixian, Wu Yiqian, Zhou Wenzheng's father and daughter, and others all live there.

After listening to Wu Qianyi's report, Luo Jingyun, who made meritorious contributions in Feixian Pass for the first time, made a decision without thinking: Lin Yan led twenty officers of the blind date group plus the heroine Zhou Shuying, pretending to be a robber, broke into the house to save people!

Since Huang Song is from Sichuan, and with a "mission", no matter whether he succeeds in saving people or not, this person must die!

According to the experience of Feixian Pass, the night attack operation was still chosen before dawn, because at that time people were most sleepy. However, in order to prevent Huang Song from escaping in the middle of the night, the personnel squatted around the Huang Mansion early.

At four o'clock, Wuchang City was silent.

Lin Yan whistled, and everyone rushed out of the darkness and began to set up a human ladder on the courtyard wall......

However, the night raid was soon revealed. Because in the small yard, there is neither Zhu Zhihan nor Huang Song, only a fierce Chinese pastoral dog......

Lin Yan, whose face was covered with black cloth, used the tip of a knife dripping with dog blood against the neck of Huang's youngest son to interrogate the trembling Huang, and quickly got the result:

Yesterday, Huang Song said goodbye to his family and boarded the boat at Hanyangmen Wharf. She didn't see anyone in her company......

Huang Song is gone, Zhu Zhihan is not here, what should the Huang family do?

If they were abandoned, they would be able to guess the origin of this gang of robbers just by Lin Yan's questioning.

So, the Huang family was tied up like zongzi and thrown into the carriage that Zhou Shuying rushed to. And this carriage was originally used to carry the corpse of Huang Song.

The old earth dog died in his duty to protect the lord, successfully caused trouble for Lin Yan and his gang, and successfully attracted the attention of the surrounding neighbors. Fortunately, the retreat was timely, and the people of Wuchang were not surrounded by monkeys.

The post house is full of people, not a place for Tibetans. The huge vault of the Wuchang branch of Huitong Qianzhuang is half-buried at the foot of the mountain, and the surrounding area is heavily guarded, making it a good place for Tibetans.

Wu Qianyi, the initiator, had no choice but to take a bunch of hot potatoes, and took advantage of the light of the sky to take a group of people to hurriedly cross the drum tower and come to Huitong Qianzhuang near Pinghu Gate.

Far away from the morning light of more than 100 steps, Wu Qianyi, who was in the lead, saw a humanoid object sitting lonely on the stone steps under the large plaque of Huitong Qianzhuang.

Isn't that damn Zhu Zhihan, and who is it!

……

Later, because of this bizarre and hugely influential disappearance, Zhu Zhihan was repeatedly examined by a special case team that came from Shu for several months.

The reason why this is so is because the caliber of the key figures on both sides does not match.

Zhu Zhihan pleaded to the task force that he was forcibly kidnapped after being tricked into the Yellow Crane Tower by Zhu Fengde, the county lord of Chufu.

During his abduction, he was subjected to unimaginable torture. And he always has great righteousness in his heart, with the determination to dedicate himself to the great cause of "protecting the country and the people, and bringing peace to the world", he is loyal and unyielding, and swears to fight to the death.

The reason why there are no scars on his body that are common after torture is because all torture is internal and not superficial;

The self-confession documents he stamped and painted were all forged by the Chu Wangfu while he was unconscious.

He can swear to the ancestral tablet that as a prince and grandson, he will never have any misdeeds......

And Xu Changshi of Chu Mansion sadly informed the Shu Mansion that the county lord was ordered by his father to purchase a batch of military funds from Shu Mansion, so he sincerely invited Zhu Zhihan, a clan relative, to enter the mansion to discuss. Who knew that Zhu Zhihan was drunk and disorderly, and actually molested her maid in front of the county lord, causing a deep wound that was difficult to heal in the county lord's young heart!

In addition, Zhu Zhihan also confessed that he had instigated Wang Jiezhi and Guo Feng, Huguangsheng members who went to Wuchang to participate in the Autumn Festival? , Guan Heiqiu, Wang Fuzhi and others wrote to slander the future Yibin, and the Xiucai Wang Guozi of Hanyang Mansion smeared the Chu Wangfu with fabricated false rumors, and even said wildly, "Heaven destroys the Chu Domain, it should be in this matter!" ”

Considering that the real culprit had already appeared, the Chu Wangfu went to Wenhu Guangxue and the high world, and punished the students and scholars involved in the case lightly, but only removed the meritorious student status and sent them back to their hometowns to take care of the matter......

Personal honor and disgrace are always a worthless scum in front of the strategic interests of the organization, and Zhu Zhihan is not a clean and flawless person.

3,000 high-powered firearms, 500 new-style firing handguns, 20,000 sets of swords, guns and armor, 500 horses, 100 small cannons, plus 100,000 catties of gunpowder, and a number of guns and steel, the total value of the first batch of orders exceeded 700,000 taels of silver!

Such a large arms business can make the weapons industry in Shudi, which has burned countless dollars, immediately upgrade to a major export earner.

More important than money is what is generally considered by outside observers to be the "Shu-Chu Alliance". For the two royal palaces of Shu and Chu, the political and military benefits are innumerable.

At that time, in order to quickly reach an agreement with the Chu Palace, the Shu Wangfu dealt with Zhu Zhihan in a high-profile and severe manner according to the requirements of the Chu Wangfu: dismissal, confinement, expulsion of the clan, and revocation of Zonglu, the same ......

The future is bright, but the road is tortuous.

The long and arduous road to success, countless people fall halfway, and there are always very few people who are lucky enough to go to the end.

Zhu Zhihan of the Shu Clan, an early famous leader in the great cause of "protecting the country and the people, and bringing peace to the world", fell disgracefully not far from the starting line.

A caustic comment by Zhu Pingjian, the son of Shu, became the epitaph of Zhu Zhihan's political career:

The warm breeze smokes the tourists drunk, and the sunset is the rising sun.

However, like many political cases, many different versions of Zhu Zhihan's case have appeared later.

One version says that Zhu Zhihan was taken down because Miss Luo learned in the audit report that Zhu Zhihan drank flower wine at public expense, and drank 40,000 taels of silver in a year, and was extremely angry, which forced the hesitant Shu prince Zhu Pingjin to be ruthless.

The political rumors brought about by these alternate versions are quite devastating.

So much so that in the next few years, the old and down-and-out Zhu Zhihan will continue to complain about grievances, and he has become a petitioner in the Shu clan that everyone is afraid of.

Note 1: Wang Yangji is from the Taiyuan Wang family. In the year of the Apocalypse, he went from the head of the household department to the magistrate of several counties in Zhejiang, and then returned to the Ministry of Industry as the director, and then Ding worried...... It can be seen that his early career was difficult. Then the nobleman appeared. Wang Yang's gene is to follow the "Shao Sima" (the original text of the Wang family tree is recorded. Xiangmu guessed that it was Yang Sichang, because Yang Sichang was the official of the Ministry of War, and his father Yang He was also an official of the right squire of the Ministry of War and the governor of Shaanxi and the three sides. He was paid for the transfer of military salaries and was repeatedly promoted. Before and after the fall of Wuchang, he was less timid than a rat and faster than a horse, but he was a blessing in disguise and acted as the governor of Chengtian for a few days in a chaotic situation. This may be the reason for the disorder in the record of Wang Yangji's position in the history books.

In later history, Hongguang succeeded to the throne, and the governor of Chengtian, Wang Ranpao, and the governor of Biyuan, Li Ranran, were both punished with the same severe punishment: they were sent to the superintendent Wang Yingxiong to listen to orders. Li Gande came to Sichuan on order and made a big move, and finally killed Sichuan, the Sichuan people and himself; And Wang Yangji gave full play to his professional expertise of being good at escaping, and actually fled back to his hometown in Qianshan. In the end, he died in his hometown and was buried in his ancestral grave.

At the critical moment of great changes in the family and country, Wang Yangji's actions are not worthy of the excellent genes of the Taiyuan Wang family in any case.
