Chapter 790: Night Thorn

In early March, Li Hongyu bid farewell to the Emperor of the Apocalypse and set off for Haicheng, now that the affairs of the capital were on the right track, there was no need for him to stay any longer, could he have witnessed how Wei Zhongxian repaired the disobedient officials in the court? Or go to see the ugliness of some officials who sneer at Wei Zhongxian?

With the vitality of the Donglin Party greatly damaged, Wei Zhongxian, who held Dongchang and Jinyiwei, became the most popular person in the capital, and many officials went to take refuge, hoping to find a good future.

What Li Hongyu didn't expect was that he thought that it were those middle and low-level officials who defected to Wei Zhongxian, but he never expected that some high-ranking officials in the court would also make a brazen slap against Wei Zhongxian, which surprised him quite a bit, and it was simply a sweep away.

However, Li Hongyu can also understand the psychology of those officials, after the closure of the territory, everyone can see that Wei Zhongxian, who is trusted by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, is going to rise in the court, and at this time the officials have only two choices, one is to confront it, and the other is to take refuge.

For high-ranking officials in the court, it is not easy to go to the next level in their careers, and they need the help of nobles, and Wei Zhongxian, who can speak in front of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, is undoubtedly that nobleman.

Li Hongyu is now a leader of the Da Ming scholar class, and naturally he doesn't want to see those officials flattering Wei Zhongxian and losing the proper dignity of a literati, so he chooses to leave, out of sight and out of mind.

It is worth mentioning that when Li Hongyu left, not only the executives and magnates in the capital came to see him off, but even Wei Zhongxian rushed over.

This made the atmosphere a little awkward, some people greeted Wei Zhongxian with a smile, while others glared angrily, and the attitudes of both sides could be described as distinct.

Wei Zhongxian did not come this time to show off, the collusion between the inner servants and the outer ministers was the most feared thing by the emperor, so he came to see off Li Hongyu by the Emperor of the Apocalypse this time, so as to tell the outside world the importance of Li Hongyu, and it can be regarded as a kind of appeasement to the civil official group.

As the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty, the Emperor of the Apocalypse naturally made good use of the combination of rigidity and softness, and did not forget to elevate Li Hongyu while Wei Zhongxian was rising, no matter how Li Hongyu was the mainstay of the civil official group.

Li Hongyu naturally knew that Wei Zhongxian would not come to see him off for no reason, nine times out of ten it was the intention of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, so he calmly greeted Wei Zhongxian, I am afraid that the Emperor of the Apocalypse also wanted to use this move to enhance the relationship between the two and cooperate with each other to serve the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Usually, the correspondence between the inner servants and the outer ministers was deeply feared by the emperors, but Li Hongyu's situation was very special, not only was he trusted by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, but he also did not hold a position in the cabinet and the six ministries.

In this way, the intersection between Li Hongyu and the officials in the capital is very small, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse naturally doesn't mind letting Wei Zhongxian and Li Hongyu move around a little more, anyway, both of them are people who know how to do things and what things can't be done.

At midnight on this day, the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, Jining Wharf.

A large ship was quietly parked on the dock, and there were quite a few local errand officers and soldiers on duty on the dock, preventing anyone from approaching the dock, because Li Hongyu was resting on the ship.

In order to rush back to Haicheng as soon as possible, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Hongyu did not get off the ship, and the food and accommodation were on the boat, which made the state capital along the way dare not slack off, and sent people to strictly guard the dock, for fear of any trouble.

If a person who avenges his grievances runs to Li Hongyu's boat and kneels down to complain, then the local state capital yamen will be unlucky, and Li Hongyu, as a young master of the Ming Dynasty, will definitely not sit idly by and ignore a case like this.

Therefore, the officials of the state capitals along the canal were on standby, and surrounded the wharf with three layers inside and three layers outside, so as to prevent those who seek justice and those with bad intentions from approaching.

Let's go!

In his sleep, Li Hongyu suddenly heard a slight sound of an iron tool hitting a wooden board, which woke him up from his sleep.

Li Hongyu's brows furrowed, if he heard correctly, there should be iron tools concentrated on the planks on the hull, otherwise there would not be such a strange sound.

It's nothing if it stays in normal times, but it's midnight and Li Hongyu is on a well-guarded boat parked on the dock, so there shouldn't be such a sound.

Then, Li Hongyu got up and put on the soft armor on the table next to him, then took off the saber hanging on the wall and sat on the chair with a serious expression and waited for the news.

He believed that that strange sound would not come out for no reason, it should have been made by someone, and the other party's purpose was undoubtedly to get on the boat.

Obviously, the people who got on the boat at this time must not be good, so Li Hongyu must be prepared and prepared.

"My lord, three assassins have been caught." It wasn't long before the voice of a guard came from outside the door.

A sneer flashed at the corner of Li Hongyu's mouth, and he got up and went to meet the three assassins, wanting to see who the other party dared to do such a headless thing.

Don't look at the big ship quietly and seems to be unattended, in fact, it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and there is a secret post on duty on the ship, so if someone wants to fish in troubled waters, they will definitely be revealed, and it is logical to be caught.

In the cabin of the ship, three men and women in black tights and tied up with flowers knelt there, surrounded by sturdy and burly guards.

Perhaps they didn't expect the big ship to be so tightly defended, and the faces of the three men and women were full of disappointment and chagrin, and soon after they got on the boat, they were covered by the nets thrown from the shadows, and then they were controlled by the swarming guards, and they didn't even have a chance to resist.

Suddenly, the guards at the scene looked at the hatch, and then bowed one after another, and Li Hongyu, who was wearing soft armor, walked in surrounded by several guards.

"Why do you assassinate your own officer?" Glancing at the weapons brought in front of the three men and women, Li Hongyu sat down on the upper seat and asked quietly.

"Hmph, corrupt officials and tyrants, everyone will be punished!" Hearing this, the middle-aged man kneeling in the middle sneered, glared at Li Hongyu and said.

"Corrupt officials and tyrants?" Li Hongyu couldn't help but smile slightly when he heard this, looked at the middle-aged man with his hands on his chest and said, "If you can tell the corrupt and brutal things that this official has done, this official will let you go." ”

"Daming has no officials, no greed, no officials and no violence, otherwise why can't the people live?"

The middle-aged man looked at Li Hongyu coldly and said, "You are just a small guard, if you are like your master one day, you will definitely be a corrupt official and tyrant!" ”

"That's even more impossible, the master of this official is definitely not a corrupt official and a tyrant, this official knows this better than you." Li Hongyu immediately laughed when he heard this, it turned out that the middle-aged man regarded him as a guard on the ship, so he said with a smile.

In fact, Li Hongyu is still very sympathetic to this kind of people who are full of hatred for the government, since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials, if they were not forced to be helpless, those people would not have been able to kill the officials and rebel, and it is certain that what happened to the family is a history of blood and tears.

"Of course you speak to your master, anyway, today we fell into your hands, and if you want to kill it, you have to listen to it!" The middle-aged man glared at Li Hongyu angrily and said, "To tell you the truth, since we came here today, we didn't want to get out alive." ”

"This little lady is very good-looking, but she has a bit of a posture, the night is long, and the official just lacks a maid to warm the bed at night, it seems that this little lady is quite suitable."

Li Hongyu knew that middle-aged people were not afraid of death, so he didn't think about anything to worry about him, turned his head to look at a Peugeot woman in her twenties kneeling beside him, and said with a smile.

"Hey......

Hearing this, the guards at the scene immediately laughed ambiguously, they naturally knew that Li Hongyu was joking, so they deliberately created an obscene atmosphere.

"What are you coming to me, don't touch her." The woman's face suddenly changed when she heard this, and the sturdy young man kneeling on the other side of the middle-aged man stared at Li Hongyu and roared angrily, wanting to stand up but was held down by the guards behind her.

"What kind of hero is bullying a woman, if you have the guts to kill us with one sword." The middle-aged man's face suddenly became very ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said to Li Hongyu.

"Little lady, I think you are quite peugeot, it is better to follow the official, the official will ensure that you will eat and drink spicy food in the future, and there will be countless glory and wealth."

Li Hongyu knew that he had grasped the weakness of the middle-aged man, so he leaned down and smiled and said to the Peugeot woman who was glaring at him, "If you are from the official, the official can let the two of them leave, which shows the sincerity of the official." ”|

The Peugeot woman was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but look at the middle-aged and sturdy young man on the side with concern, I have to say that Li Hongyu's request is very tempting.

"Don't listen to him, they are all treacherous villains, and they will definitely kill us at that time." Seeing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly warned the Peugeot woman.

The Peugeot woman nodded when she heard this, thinking that the middle-aged man was reasonable, and the people in the government had any integrity.

Li Hongyu smiled slightly, he could already confirm that the relationship between these three assassins was close, so the next step would be easy, he didn't like that kind of bloody punishment, he preferred to defeat the other party psychologically.

Vomit~~

Just when Li Hongyu was thinking about how to open a breakthrough from the three of them, the Peugeot woman suddenly leaned over, retched violently, and spit out something like water.

"Lady, what's wrong with you?" Seeing this, the sturdy young man immediately asked with a concerned expression, because he was firmly held down by the guards behind him, he couldn't move and could only watch the Peugeot woman retching there.

"You're crazy, you're pregnant and you still dive, aren't you dead!"

Li Hongyu is naturally no stranger to this situation, and after being stunned, he said to the Peugeot woman in a deep voice, and then waved his hand to the guard on the side, "Untie her, take him to the medical officer, and give her a safe pregnancy." ”

"Lady, you're happy." The sturdy young man's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked the Peugeot woman, which was a happy event.

However, then his expression darkened, which was not a good thing for them in their current situation, which meant that the Peugeot woman might suffer more and they would have more concerns.

The middle-aged man's brows were tightly furrowed, his face was pale, although he wanted to be calm, but the worried look of looking at the Peugeot woman betrayed him, and it could be seen that he cared about the Peugeot woman very much.
