Wang Xin's face turned pale, and he walked under the eaves of the porch with the support of several family members.

Xu Dahua looked at him, his face was not pretentious, and he said: "Wang Xinyi, you slandered the eunuch Si Li, and your words were so rebellious, your incident happened today!" ”

Wang Xinyi trembled and bowed down, and said: "Please envoy Rongyu, that piece of music was definitely not written by the lower officials, and the lower officials were really wronged." ”

Xu Dahua laughed and said: "Wang Xinyi, you'd better dare to act, so that you can still have a good reputation in your party, and you can also deceive those fools who have never liked eunuchs. ”

Xu Dahua's words are actually right, things have come to this point, even if the court knows that Wang Xinyi did not write the folds, Wang Xinyi is also dead, it is better to die to the end, and it is better to fight for a good reputation.

However, Wang Xinyi doesn't want to be a "martyr" no matter what, if someone else does this kind of thing, he might as well applaud others impassionedly, if he does it himself, he will have to resign no matter what.

It's a pity that Xu Dahua can't allow Wang Xinyi to defend himself, and with a wave of his hand, Xu Dahua said: "Start reading!" ”

A brocade-clothed guard flag school immediately rushed up and took out a holy decree from the package, of course, the will of this kind of service is not a holy decree of a sealed or ceremonial nature, or a white rice paper with a yellow envelope, Wang Xin saw the flag school unfold the will and began to read it, and immediately his eyes were black, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Help him kneel," Xu Dahua said dissatisfiedly: "Is this also the Donglin Party?" It's so spineless. ”

The will is not long, only a few hundred words less, it is nothing more than to order Wang Xinyi to be arrested and taken to Beijing to ask Xun, the Ming decree is not as imagined by later generations to use eunuchs, most of them are civil officials, only this kind of will to arrest officials, generally Jinyi Weiqi School to read, after reading, is to arrest immediately.

"Take it!"

Xu Dahua waited for the flag school to finish reading the will, and he just drank loudly!

"Lord Xu, wait a minute." Of course, outsiders can't come in when the decree is announced, and the brocade guards isolate the inside and outside, but after the decree is announced, there is a eunuch wearing a three-mountain hat and holding a dust whisk in his hand all the way in from the side door.

Wang Xinyi was originally groggy, but his eyes suddenly lit up.

This is likely to be a person sent by His Royal Highness the Acting King, although the relatives cannot be involved in government affairs, but if the Acting King has obvious tendencies, most of the imperial court will still consider it.

The eunuch ran over while shouting, and he said to Xu Dahua: "His Royal Highness said that Wang Xinyi has always been respectful in serving the widow, and asked Lord Xu to leave a little dignity for him. ”

Xu Dahua pondered for a moment, he was a little confused about the meaning of the king, and immediately replied: "This matter is easy to do, the official will arrange carriages and horses, and will not tie up Lord Wang, and the supply will be generous......"

These things are all details, and Xu Dahua can do them casually.

Anyway, when he was sent to Jingshi, as soon as Wang Xin entered the edict prison, how to suffer was the matter of Jinyiwei, and the matter of Dongchang and the celebrant supervisor went up, and it had nothing to do with him Xu Dahua.

The face of the clan is worth so much.

The eunuch coughed, it seemed that he still had something to say, Xu Dahua was a little impatient, these eunuchs in the outer domain were no better than the eunuchs in the palace, and they were as powerless as their masters, that is, they bullied the ordinary gentry and the people at the bottom, and there was no way to meet the big gentry and civil officials.

"Lord Wang, His Royal Highness the Acting King has a message for our family to ask you," the eunuch couldn't care about Xu Dahua's face, and he said, "Where is that Fan Yongdou, do you know?" ”

Wang Xinyi enlisted the levy and replied, "The lower officials don't know. ”

"A few of them, talking to His Royal Highness the Acting King about cooperation, do you know?"

"This subordinate knows ......"

"Fan Yongdou is nowhere to be seen, the one surnamed Wang and the one surnamed Tian are scared away, do you really not know Fan Yongdou's whereabouts?"

Wang Xinyi smiled bitterly and said: "Fan Yongdou disappeared with one of my staff, and the lower official felt that this matter was related to the pseudo-twist, but no one listened to the lower official's defense. ”

"We're not interested in hearing it." The eunuch of the palace looked unhappy, obviously this errand was messed up, thinking that the acting king was already unhappy, and he must be even more unhappy after he brought back the news, the face of the eunuch of the palace was already very ugly.

The eunuch left, Xu Dahua also kept his promise, did not tie Wang Xinyi, and asked someone to rush to a mule cart, Wang Xinyi curled up and lay on the mule cart, Wang Xinyi's servants were scattered, no one stayed as a loyal servant, only an old servant, who was originally the son of the Wang family, was brought out from his hometown, at this time the old servant had two tears in his eyes, followed the mule cart, ready to go to Beijing with the master.

In the crowd, there was a middle-aged man with a good demeanor, wearing a royal blue straight embellished, and the six-in-one hat on his head was inlaid with a piece of green jade.

"Although I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, after seeing Wang Xinyi's fate, I still have relatives." The elegant middle-aged man is Zheng Guochang, the governor of Datong, he also has some dangers in disguise, fortunately there are not many people who recognize him, those companions, in addition to the inner henchmen are the Zheng family, the peripheral few are Zhang Han sent over the manpower, very skilled, not afraid that the Jin merchants may use the method of armed assassination to make a risky fight, Zhang Han escaped, Wang Xinyi fell, Fan Yongdou disappeared, Zhangjiakou Jin Shang's layout for many years has failed, at this time, in addition to Zhang Han to strengthen his own vigilance, Zheng Guochang and others also need to be cautious. After all, when it comes to the business of tens of millions of silver, the rest of the Jin merchants may not recognize it that way.

The person next to Zheng Guochang is naturally Ma Chengen, he doesn't care, after listening to Zheng Guochang's words, Ma Chengen said: "It may be Wenwu Shutu, or it may be that this Wang is too hateful, I feel a burst of happiness." ”

Zheng Guochang shook his head and smiled, and said, "I'll tell you, I really played the piano to the cow." ”

Ma Chengen said: "I was originally a cow!" ”

The two laughed together...... About the next day, the relationship between the general army and the governor is so good, and there is only Datong here.

The vehicle escorting Wang Xinyi gradually turned away, and a large number of envoy attachés and Jinyi guards were on guard to leave the city, Xu Dahua escorted Wang Xinyi and left directly.

Zheng Guochang saw that the people on the left and right had also dispersed, and said to Ma Chengen: "This Xu Dahua came to see me quietly last night. ”

Ma Chengen said with interest: "What did he say?" ”

"Of course, it's to curry favor and sell well, it's nothing more than asking for silver." Zheng Guochang said: "I was impatient to talk to him, but I only told him that on the way to the journey, I would definitely be able to see Zhang Han and Zhang Wenlan." ”

Xu Dahua So far, Chacha and Yusheng are just making a show, Zhang Han has already hugged Wei Zhongxian's thick legs, and he didn't dare to really check and Yusheng if he gave Xu Dahua ten guts, but this guy will definitely not accept it if he leaves like this, Zheng Guochang estimates that with Zhang Han's character, he will not just call this Xu someone to leave empty-handed.

Xu Dahua ...... His smell was disgusting. Zheng Guochang sighed suddenly, his face actually showed some old state, he looked at the street market that was still chaotic, and said in a deep voice: "Wen Lan had to join the eunuch party in order to protect himself, there is nothing to say, this level can't be passed, everything is empty." It's just that the eunuch party rises and falls quickly, and there are not a few people who rise and fall in a few years, so the old man still wrote a small letter to Wen Lan to remind him to pay attention. ”

Ma Chengen said disapprerovingly: "Uncle, you think too much!" Who is Wen Lan? The small proprietor of a small business house has achieved the current situation, and he will be controlled by the eunuch party? I see, he and the eunuchs are just taking what they need, Wen Lan is clear in his heart. He told me a long time ago that the Donglin Party is like an iceberg, and the Eunuch Party is just like that, and if it goes down, I am afraid that there will be many troubled times, and everything should be based on military merits and more retention of the inner Ding trilogy, I don't dare to believe it, but I have to believe it......"

Zheng Guochang's eyes showed a thoughtful look, what Ma Chengen said, Zhang Han naturally vaguely talked to him, of course, it was not as straightforward as Ma Chengen said, but the general meaning was similar.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zheng Guochang still shook his head and said: "In addition to the fact that it is really difficult for the Dongyu to be peaceful, the Beiyu is not a threat, Wen Lan is honest to use his own regiment to train his private soldiers to go north, and there is no way for the Beiyu to gather more than 100,000 troops, in addition, the world is still peaceful." ”

Ma Chengen smiled slightly and said: "Uncle, Extravagant Chongming started in the first year of the Apocalypse and besieged Chengdu for more than 100 days, and An Bangyan began to besiege Guiyang in February of the second year of the Apocalypse, how many days has it been now?" Chengdu is fine, or Guiyang, and its subordinates will go down to Kunming, and the two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou will no longer be owned by the Ming Dynasty. ”

"It's nothing." Zheng Guochang said: "The southwest Yi is rebelled when it comes, and the war has not stopped since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, but the scale is large and small. The rebellion of Lu'an, it does look like a headache, but this matter is already being solved by the Nanjing Military Department, the army of many provinces has been mobilized, the old man heard that there are more than 100,000 people, and the main force of the imperial court will arrive, and the two thieves of Lu'an will definitely be ambushed and punished. ”

"I see it differently." Ma Chengen said: "The luxury family and the An family are both powerful Tusi, the so-called time and place are favorable, the time is now my Ming national strength is weak, the elite soldiers have been repeatedly lost, and the location is definitely owned by the two families of Luxury, and as the uncle said, the southwest is wild and untamable, so of course the people are on their side, the imperial court mobilized troops from the southern provinces, the number is enough, but the combat effectiveness of the guest soldiers is really worrying...... So Wen Lan's view is right, just the rebellion of luxury, I am afraid that the imperial court will have to spend a lot of money, and it will take several years to pacify, which is also a manifestation of the decline of my Ming national strength, not to mention that at the beginning of the country, hundreds of thousands of troops were dispatched at every turn, all of them were good generals and elite soldiers, and they must use the power of thunder to quell these rebellions, even if it is Tianshun, Chenghua and even to the Zhengde period, with the national strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is still not difficult to quell the rebellion. The overall situation today is that a man in the prime of life is already dying, and for decades he has only occasionally suffered a minor illness of wind and cold, and now it may be a fatal typhoid fever......"

"Enough, enough." Zheng Guochang waved his hand again and again: "This topic, let's stop here." ”
