When Emperor Ji Siyuan was still waiting in the palace for the news of Jiang Chuan's visit, he received the news of Jiang Chuan's assassination, and he was shocked and frightened.

Of course, the surprise is that this incident itself is very surprising, as soon as the King of Qin entered the city, someone dared to risk the disapproval of the world to assassinate the King of Qin, who was heavily guarded, which was simply a kind of provocation by Chiguoguo.

But when he was angry, he was worried that Jiang Chuan would not link this matter to him, thinking that he wanted to fly the bird and hide the bow.

"Is King Qin injured?" After the initial outrage, the emperor hurriedly inquired about Wei Zhongxian, who had reported the news.

"Master, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is safe and sound, and besides, there is an ironclad car prepared by His Majesty for His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and those assassins have all missed." Wei Zhongxian replied.

Hearing that Jiang Chuan was fine, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief. What he is most afraid of is that once Jiang Chuan is injured, he is afraid that he will anger the imperial court, even if he does not attack the imperial court, he is afraid that he will lead the army out of the customs, which is the result that the emperor does not want to see.

Although Li Zicheng has been defeated, he still has hundreds of thousands of horses, and his foundation has not been damaged. In addition, there is Zhang Xianzhong, who occupied Shuzhou, and he is now inseparable from Jiangchuan at all.

Even if he is afraid of Jiang Chuan in his heart, it will be after the overall situation is stabilized. Now he relies on Jiang Chuan very much. Without Jiang Chuan's army in the capital town, he is not stable as an emperor.

"Who these assassins are instigating, let me find out. No matter who is behind the scenes, as long as they are involved in this case, they will all be severely punished. King Qin is now the pillar of my Ming Dynasty, whoever wants to be unfavorable to King Qin is not good for me, once it is found out, I will crush these people behind the scenes and wipe out the nine clans! ”

After the Emperor's worries vanished, his anger surged back up, and he paced around the Dongnuan Pavilion and roared.

Wei Zhongxian listened attentively on the side, but he was thinking about whether to tell the emperor that the King of Qin had sent troops to take over the defense of the Nine Gate City.

After thinking about it, it's better not to tell it, after all, this matter has little to do with him, it is the first assistant Xia Junze who is in charge, and it is better to say that Xia Junze himself says it.

When the emperor's anger was almost vented, Wei Zhongxian stepped forward: "Master, don't be angry. Although those assassins are hateful, but what kind of person is His Royal Highness King Qin, and the fierce warriors around him are like clouds, how can they be taken advantage of by these small nights. The matter of the assassin will be investigated by the Jinyi Guard, but it is just a top priority, and His Majesty needs to send someone to appease His Royal Highness the King of Qin, in order to show His Majesty's faith and love for the King of Qin. ”

Wei Zhongxian's words brought the emperor back to his senses, and he said continuously: "Old Wei, what you said makes sense. I should have sent someone to visit the King of Qin. As long as you go and bring some good things from the treasury, and then reward King Qin with twenty beautiful palace maids, I will definitely find out who is behind the scenes and be angry for him. ”

Wei Zhongxian said with a smile: "The master's grace is mighty, His Royal Highness the King of Qin will definitely be grateful to the master's grace." The slave and maid must make this mission for the master. ”

Wei Zhongxian was secretly happy in his heart. He has now taken the line of King Qin in private, and is looking for an opportunity to see Jiangchuan, so the emperor pushes the boat down the river and gives him a good opportunity to meet King Qin justifiably.

Wei Zhongxian had the emperor's dictation, and soon selected twenty young, beautiful, and clever palace maids from among the palace maids who were assigned to the court, and found some valuable objects from the treasury, and took people to the palace of the king of Qin.

On the side of the Qin Palace, after the guard battalion checked all the places and found no hidden dangers, the palace maids and eunuchs who had been arranged for a long time to prepare washing things and food for Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan has been handsome for more than a year, and he can deal with it when he eats, so he is not too particular.

However, the problem of eating for three thousand guards is a big problem, not to mention that these people in the Qin Wangfu can't be completely trusted now, even if they can be trusted, they can't get food for three thousand people at once.

So, Jiang Chuan asked Bai Mu to divide the guard battalion into three shifts, with 1,000 people in each class. It was enough to guard 1,000 people in the Qin Wangfu each time, and the remaining 2,000 people went back to the camp outside the city to rest and eat first. A shift of four hours, when the time comes, you can come and change the guard.

The 1,000 people on duty can first satisfy their hunger with the dry rations they bring with them, and then have a formal meal when they go back to rest.

The others are not by Jiang Chuan's side now, and Jiang Chuan sent someone to the camp outside the city to pick up Su Qin by the way.

Su Qin is not here, he just has something, and there is no one to discuss.

As for Shoufu Xia Junze, after briefly introducing the situation of the palace to Jiang Chuan, he also said goodbye and left. He also had to go to the palace to report to the emperor about today's events.

After Xia Junze left, Jiang Chuan was about to send someone to take a hot bath and change clothes, but he heard Bai Mu come over and tell him that it was someone from Heibingtai in the capital who came.

Jiang Chuan asked the man to be called in.

The person who came was Chen Zhaojun, who originally presided over the Black Ice Terrace in Datong City, and now he is the highest person in charge of the Black Ice Terrace in the capital.

Chen Zhaojun was dressed as an ordinary businessman, with an ordinary appearance, a calm bearing, and a shrewd and vigilant look in his eyes.

"Subordinate Chen Zhaojun see His Royal Highness." Chen Zhaojun knelt down on one knee and saluted Jiang Chuan.

According to the sequence of the various units under Jiang Chuan's command, the Black Ice Platform belongs to the military establishment, so the salute is also a one-knee bow like a soldier.

"Get up, Chen Qianhu has worked hard, sit down." It's all their own people, and Jiang Chuan is not polite.

It is said that the matter of Heibingtai should be Chen Zhaojun first reported to Bai Jinxiu, and then Bai Jinxiu reported to Jiang Chuan. It's just that at this moment, Bai Jinxiu has gone to Jiangnan and led people to inspect the clues of the Japanese Kou over there.

So Chen Zhaojun had no choice but to come directly to see Jiang Chuan.

After thanking Jiang Chuan, Chen Zhaojun sat upright on a chair at the bottom.

"You know everything today, right?" Jiangchuan gets straight to the point.

"That's what my subordinates are here for." Chen Zhaojun said in a deep voice.

"Tell me what you've found." Jiang Chuan nodded and motioned for him to speak freely.

"Your Highness, this matter should have nothing to do with the palace and the cabinet. According to the analysis of the clues currently held by his subordinates, this matter should be related to Li Zicheng, and several figures in the DPRK and China are involved. Chen Zhaojun said in a deep voice.

"Are you saying that someone in the court is colluding with Li Zicheng and wants to be unfavorable to the king?" Jiang Chuan's eyes lit up.

"Yes, Your Highness. According to the clues obtained by his subordinates, many senior officials in the DPRK and Central China have been in contact with Li Zicheng since two months ago, and in the days before His Highness defeated Li Zicheng, the contact was even more frequent. His subordinates had enough reason to believe that Li Zicheng had a sizable informant organization in the capital. These people were supported by several senior officials in the DPRK and China, so they were able to stay safe and sound, and they escaped the pursuit of the Jinyi guards in the capital several times. ”

Chen Zhaojun said in an orderly voice.

Unexpectedly, Li Zicheng also buried a lot of eyeliner in the capital, this news really surprised Jiang Chuan.
