After staying in Gaoyang County for three days, Sun Yueling and a group of four people left for the rest of their lives. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This time, they entered Beijing secretly, and because they were close to Beijing, they couldn't make any publicity. After leaving Gaoyang, the four of them went to Baoding Mansion, then found a carriage and horse shop in the city, and took a carriage from Henan to Jingshi.

From Baoding to Jingshi is a smooth official road, three days later arrived in Beijing. After entering the city, the four of them settled down in an inn, and Sun Yueling immediately asked his men to contact the old department of the original Dongtang in Beijing.

When they left Jingshi, they took most of the Dongtang masters with them, but there were still a small number of brothers who remained in Jingshi, and these people lurked in Jingshi and became the secret force of Fenghua Society in Jingshi.

Within an hour, the person who contacted the old department of the East Hall returned, followed by a man with a beard on his face.

"Lord!" After this man entered the room, he saw Sun Yueling standing by the window at a glance, and hurriedly rushed forward and knelt on one knee, choking up, "It's been two years, and the master is finally back!" ”

Sun Yueling turned around, picked up the rough man, and said, "Nantian, I've worked hard for you in the past two years!" "This man's name is Yan Nantian, and he is the cadre of the original Dongtang. When Sun Yueling left Beijing, he was entrusted with the important task of entrusting all affairs in the Beijing Division to be handled by him, and these brothers who remained in the Beijing Division were headed by him.

Yan Nantian himself is also lurking in the Fusi Edict Prison in Beizhen, ostensibly as a foreman in charge of the stables, but in fact, he is secretly one of the secret spies of the Fenghua Society in the edict prison.

Yan Nantian stood up and said to Sun Yueling: "In the past two years, my subordinates have been looking forward to the meeting master returning to Beijing as soon as possible. ”

Sun Yueling smiled faintly and said, "What you said is right, I returned to Beijing this time because I was entrusted by the elders and colleagues of Donglin to regain what we lost." Even if we can't return to the court and take power again, we must let the eunuchs know that we are not fish and meat to be slaughtered, and everyone who is the enemy of our Fenghua Society will have to pay the price! ”

When Yan Nantian heard him say this, his face was even more excited, and he said: "I am relieved to have the words of the master, and our brothers who stayed in Beijing were very excited when they heard that the master of the meeting launched a civil rebellion in Jiangnan and killed Liu Dexi, Wei Gelding's henchman. After the great changes in the south of the Yangtze River, Wei Gelding did not dare to send Ti cavalry to carry out the disaster of punishment on Donglin, and the master of the meeting can be said to have made great contributions. ”

Sun Yueling smiled bitterly and said: "Nantian, you don't have to compliment me, that time can be said to be extremely dangerous, and it is a last resort, I hope this incident will not happen again, and we can't always rely on this kind of thing to counterattack." ”

Yan Nantian nodded and said, "That's what the master said." I don't know what the Guild Master plans to do next? ”

Sun Yueling said: "Don't worry, I just arrived in Beijing, and many things are not yet clear, and I still need you to tell me about the current situation in Beijing." ”

Yan Nantian responded, and slowly said some of the things that had happened in Jingshi recently.

From his mouth, Sun Yueling learned the ins and outs of these things. The first thing is that after Miao Changqi, Zhou Shunchang and others were imprisoned in the Imperial Prison, Fang Yichen and Huang Tianlai organized a prison robbery operation, but the Jinyi Guard Imperial Prison was heavily guarded, and there were capable and talented people sent by Citigroup to supervise it, so that operation failed, and made Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun and others hate the old department of the original care hall to the core, and went to the factory to arrest and kill Huang and others many times.

Since the failure of the prison robbery, Fang Yichen, Huang Tianlai and others have been even more cautious and dare not be too public, but the eunuch vassal Citigroup adhered to the meaning of the palace and wanted to unify the rivers and lakes of Beijing, so they were ruthless and killed them all, and Huang Tianlai was killed by Citigroup for the reason of obstructing the factory and the guard.

Secondly, after Citigroup became bigger, its influence spread throughout the four cities of the east, west, south, and middle, and only the northern city was not fully controlled because of the existence of the 36 Dao. But because of this, Citigroup took the 36 Dao as the primary target of suppression, and repeatedly made it difficult and humiliated, and many bloody conflicts broke out between the two sides.

But even so, their lives are not much better, they have been completely suppressed in a corner of the northern city, and it is difficult to do anything. In today's situation, not to mention continuing to maintain business contacts with Fenghua Society and White Rock City, it is already very rare to be able to maintain the business in Jingshi.

The last thing is even more bizarre, Liu Duo, the prefect of Yangzhou, was arrested in Beijing and imprisoned in the edict because he inscribed a poem on a monk's fan, which contained the words "haze and state affairs".

Liu Duo has a strange temperament and has no special aid in the court, but he has a deep friendship with Fang Yichen, who used to serve in the military department, so he asked Fang Yichen for help, Fang Yichen was angry, and even broke into Ni Wenhuan's mansion at night and threatened Ni Wenhuan with a sword to release him. Ni Wenhuan agreed to this at the time, but unexpectedly, he regretted it afterwards, and also reported Fang Yichen to Jinyiwei, causing Fang Yichen to hide his whereabouts and hide and dare not show his face.

Sun Yueling frowned deeply when he heard this, whether it is in the court or in the opposition, the power of the eunuch party is so large that it cannot be attached, and this is the capital master, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, they have a unique influence among the people when they were in Jiangnan, and they can't find a point to break the situation, so they sighed: "Nantian, the current plan, we can only be patient for the time being, and respond to all changes with the same, and when the opportunity comes, it is natural for us to make a move." ”

Yan Nantian nodded and said: "Everything is done according to the will of the master, and the brothers are ready to serve the master at any time!" ”

……

The inner city of the capital division, the lobby of the Fusi in the north town.

Xu Xianchun, the commander of the servant, was holding a well-brewed West Lake Longjing, but he drank it tastelessly, and in front of him sat a civil official dressed in a three-grade supplement, nagging at him. Xu Xianchun was depressed in his heart, but it was not easy to have a seizure, if the person in front of him was not Ni Wenhuan, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, who was also a member of the Wei Party, he would have ordered someone to drive him out.

Ni Wenhuan came here to urge him to arrest Fang Yichen, the remnant of the original Caring Hall, as soon as possible. Xu Xianchun has not had a good face since he saw him, Fang Yichen is not an ordinary Donglin Party member, but a swordsman with superb martial arts, if Beizhen Fusi had the ability to take him, he would have taken it a long time ago, why put it on to this day.

Ni Wenhuan was constantly agitating and said: "Lord Xu, this Fang Yichen will not return to the case for a day, and the official will not dare to be relaxed for a day, and he will not even dare to slack off when he sleeps and bathes, for fear that he will suddenly appear to assassinate the official." I also hope that Lord Xu will send a lot of horses to search in the capital and bring him to justice as soon as possible, so that I can sleep peacefully! ”

Xu Xianchun frowned and said, "Lord Ni, didn't the factory send a master from the Citigroup Club to your mansion to protect you, why are you so worried and worried." Fang Yichen is now a frightened bird, and self-protection is a problem, how can he have the time to stab you again? ”

Ni Wenhuan said with a bitter face: "Lord Xu, it's not the first time you've said this, you have to give me a letter, how is the case going, have you found out his news?" You can't keep dragging it out like this, I also told the factory about it, and he is also very concerned......

"Lord Ni!" Xu Xianchun interrupted him violently, and said unhappily: "You also know the high level of Fang Yichen's martial arts, how can you say that you can get it, there must be a process for everything, right?" Do you think that if you are in a hurry, I will not be in a hurry? When did I Xu Xianchun not do my best to do it? In this case, you should go back to the house and sit down, as long as there is news of him, I will be the first to inform you, how about it? ”

Ni Wenhuan was still unwilling, and argued: "Why doesn't this official know how powerful this person is, otherwise he wouldn't have to take the guards all day long." As far as I know, the Jinyi Guard Yamen did not pay attention to this matter at all, and the school captains sent either went to seize the wealthy merchant Yamada industry, or demanded gold and silver from the families of those criminal officials...... You have to pay attention to this! ”

Xu Xianchun's face darkened after hearing this, and he stared at Ni Wenhuan and said: "Lord Ni, what are you talking about, we Jinyiwei handle the case, do you think you can see and touch it, otherwise the imperial court will not hand over those major cases to us to handle." Since you say so, then I won't hide it from you. Regarding the arrest of Fang Yichen, I have sent a large number of secret spies to find out his whereabouts, but this person is very cunning, and I have not been able to find any clues about him, maybe he has escaped from Beijing and is no longer in Beijing. ”

After a pause, he added, "So, you don't have to worry, in a short period of time, he will never dare to do anything to you again." Of course, we will not relax our investigation of this matter, as long as he appears in Beijing, we will immediately arrest him. ”

Ni Wenhuan accompanied the smiling face and said: "Lord Xu, of course I believe in your Beizhen Fusi's ability to handle cases, just now I was just in a hurry and didn't choose to speak, and I hope that your lord will not blame." ”

Xu Xianchun snorted and did not answer.

Seeing that he was silent, Ni Wenhuan asked cautiously: "As far as I know, Fang Yichen has a good relationship with Wu Chengde of the Thirty-Sixth Dao, I don't know if the adults know about this, maybe you can open this breakthrough from Wu Chengde......

Xu Xianchun finally couldn't bear it anymore, stood up, and said impatiently: "I know, I know, we have been investigating this Wu Chengde for a long time, and we haven't found anything suspicious so far." I am busy with official business, so I will stop here for today, and I will inform you if there is any situation. Someone's coming, send Lord Ni! ”

Ni Wenhuan saw that he was so impatient, and even gave an order to evict customers, so he could only stand up and say goodbye.

After leaving the gate of Beizhen Fusi, Ni Wenhuan secretly cursed in his heart, this Xu Xianchun's ability is so mediocre, why does the factory guild let him be in charge of such an important yamen as Beizhen Fusi, and at the same time made up his mind in his heart, Jinyiwei is unreliable, and he has to find another help in this matter, so he said to a few people waiting outside: "Go to Citigroup, I want to see your leader Xiong Sifei!" ”
