Chapter 409: Turning Point and Calculation (II)
After entering the wax moon, the flavor of the New Year in Beijing has gradually become stronger, and people's faces are also filled with longing and joy for the New Year. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although there had been such a major event as the Shanxi Mutiny before, the people always forgot it, and after the imperial court sent personnel to Datong, everyone also settled down. In the past six months, haven't you always been safe and sound, and the worries before thinking about it are also superfluous, this mutiny should be just a trivial matter, and it will not have much impact on side affairs at all.
In fact, not only the people, but also Liu Shouyou, the governor of Jinyi Guard, has been in a good mood recently. It's not that he's so happy because it's about to be a new year, for someone like him, the New Year just means another year older, and nothing else has changed. What made him happy was that a major event had been done recently, and the hidden dangers inside Jinyiwei had been cleared in one fell swoop, and now Shuanglin Gong also praised him.
So this afternoon, when the fan of the East Factory summoned him in the name of the factory father, Liu Shouyou was also very calm in his heart, maybe it was just that Feng Gonggong had any tasks to explain to us to do, this was the only possibility in his mind.
However, when he came to the Zhongyi Hall and saw Feng Bao's gloomy face that could almost drip water, Liu Dudu's heart suddenly tightened, and the smile on his face immediately retracted, and he said softly: "I don't know what the Duke of Shuanglin called the officials to come to?" ”
Feng Bao glanced at him coldly: "Governor Liu, what kind of errand are you doing as the Governor of the Brocade Guard?" Or are you dissatisfied with me and deliberately didn't report it? ”
"Huh? Shuanglin Gong, the lower officials have always respected you, even if they have the courage to be dissatisfied, they don't dare to be dissatisfied with you......" Feng Bao's words behind him were so terrible that Liu Shouyou didn't even think about the meaning of his first half of the sentence, and hurriedly pleaded his loyalty.
Feng Bao let out an "oh" and said, "That is, you, the Jinyi Guard, are not effective in supervising things." ”
"Xia Guan really doesn't understand what Shuanglin Gong is blaming for, please make Shuanglin Gong clear!" Liu Shouyou only felt a panic, and almost fell to the ground with weak knees. But he quickly stabilized his mind and showed a look of grievance: "If it is true that the lower officials are ineffective, but please punish Shuanglin Gong." ”
Feng Bao didn't have the heart to continue selling Guanzi, so he pointed to the stack of notes on the table in front of him: "See for yourself." ”
Liu Shouyou hesitated for a moment, but still carefully picked up one of the notebooks and read it. After only reading a few lines, his expression tightened when he understood the gist of it: "This ...... How can there be such a statement. ”
"Are you asking me? I also wondered, if it was just one or two people who impeached me like this, it would be a coincidence. But now, there are enough twenty or thirty imperial envoys and officials who are saying by name that Liu Yingji is behind me in Datong, and that all the benefits he has obtained have fallen into the pockets of someone in my Feng. Feng Bao said, slapped his hand on the case, and looked at Liu Shouyou calmly: "Doesn't your Jinyi guard have the duty of supervising hundreds of officials?" Why did these officials collude with me and you didn't report it in time? Do you want to see me laugh, or do you want me to be knocked down by them? Well? ”
"Shuanglin Gong Mingjian, if the lower officials have such thoughts, let God kill me with a thunderbolt!" Liu Shouyou, who was panicked, hurriedly swore an oath, and knelt on the ground to ask Feng Bao for his guilt: "The lower officials have the courage, and they don't have the heart." The lower officials have been busy dealing with the internal affairs of Jinyiwei recently, so they have been a little negligent in supervising the hundred officials, which is why they have taken advantage of the loopholes, which is indeed the responsibility of the lower officials. ”
In fact, Feng Bao didn't know that it was impossible for this always obedient subordinate to do such a thing, and today was just to beat him, and at the same time, it was also to vent the boredom in his heart.
Many of these notes have been seen by the Son of Heaven, although the little emperor of Wanli didn't say anything in person, but looking at Feng Bao's eyes was obviously a little inappropriate, which made Feng Gonggong even more uneasy. What he has to do now is to find out who instructed him to attack this time, and because he is the party concerned, of course, this matter can no longer be brought forward by Dongchang, so it can only be handed over to Jinyiwei.
But he was a little uneasy about Liu Shouyou, so he had this one, first put absolute pressure on him, and then use him. In this way, he is not only doing things for himself, but also proving his innocence. This is Feng Bao's consistent way of employing people.
In fact, after a period of nervousness, Liu Shouyou gradually figured out Feng Bao's thoughts, so after carefully looking at Feng Bao for a few moments, he boldly said: "If Shuanglin Gong doesn't believe in Xia Guan, Xia Guan can use his actions to show everything." As long as Shuanglin Gong hands over the matter to me Jinyiwei, the lower officials will definitely find out the matter in a short period of time and give you an explanation. ”
Feng Bao was waiting for him, and his face softened slightly: "Okay, then I'll give you another chance to atone for your sins, five days, within five days, I will know the root of everything." ”
“…… Be! Although he felt that the five days were indeed tight, Liu Shouyou didn't dare to bargain with Feng Bao at this moment, so he immediately gritted his teeth and recognized it. It seems that to continue to investigate the internal affairs of Jinyiwei, we have to put it aside for the time being, and finish Feng Bao's errand first.
Although the power of Jinyi Wei is not as strong as before, it is impossible to lock up the imperial court officials directly to the Zhenfu Division for interrogation without asking any reason as in the past, and no one dares to say anything even if they are tortured. But their functions are still there, and although they can't take those who are officials, it is not difficult to deal with the butlers and the like in the mansions of several officials.
So in the next few days, the housekeepers and subordinates of the Yanguan family who had impeached Feng Bao and Liu Yingji, the corrupt officials of Datong, suffered all kinds of illegal deeds, and often before they went out to do something, they would be taken away by the people who suddenly appeared in Jinyiwei, and what was waiting for them was some creepy threats and torture instruments.
Of course, these people are faithful protectors and refuse to give any account of their problems. But there are also many people, after facing those bloody torture instruments, or being repaired by Jinyiwei, obediently opened their mouths and told what they knew.
When this information truthfully came to Liu Shouyou and was read by him one by one, his heart rose again.
Although these people explained the same thing, their masters would suddenly impeach Feng Bao only because of the benefits and instructions of the Shanxi Li, Liu, Zhong and other families, but Liu Shouyou still saw something different from it.
Of course, the three major families have some power, but no matter how bold they are, they don't dare to attack Feng Bao so blatantly. And the reason why they make such crazy moves must be controlled by others.
As far as Liu Shouyou knows, Yang Zhen, who is now in Shanxi, had controlled the three major families before the governor Liu Yingji, who was in trouble, which eventually led to his complete condemnation of death. Although he has not yet been escorted back to Beijing, the decision on his disposition has almost been decided -- he will be decided, his home will be raided, and all his family members will be assigned to border land.
Since Yang Zhen was able to control the three major families to deal with Liu Yingji, who had always been close to them, he naturally had a way to use them to deal with Feng Bao who was far away in the capital. Although the gap between the two is huge, with Liu Shouyou's understanding of Yang Zhen, this kid really has the courage and courage to do such a thing.
After almost being sure that this was the "truth", Liu Shouyou was nervous: "This Yang Zhen is too unscrupulous, he said what kind of person he is, he actually dares to calculate Gonggong Feng." He knows that he can't really do anything to Gonggong Feng by doing this, it will only bring endless disasters to himself and our Jinyi Guard! Liu Shouyou, who was full of resentment in his heart, just wanted to pull Yang Zhen over, and then kick this blind and bold guy to death.
But now, the only thing Liu Dudu can do is to truthfully report everything he found to Feng Bao, hoping to separate Jinyiwei and Yang Zhen as much as possible! Let Feng Baomo connect the two and take his anger on his head.
When Yang Zhen didn't know that he was in a big calculation, a turning point on the other side had slowly appeared.
The arrival of one person allowed Nie Fei and them to finally know what kind of great changes had taken place in Shanxi beyond Taihang Mountain.
After listening to Lu Peng tell the contents of the notices posted by the government that he saw, Nie Fei frowned unconsciously: "Is this really true?" So Liu Yingji was really taken down? ”
"These are all written on the notices posted by the government at the gate of the yamen and the gate of the city, and they are all covered with the big seal of the government. Just in case, I also went to a few more counties to confirm, not only Xin County, but also other places have the same notice. Lu Peng said with great conviction.
"It seems that there are still people in the court who understand and know our hardships, so we have cleaned up Liu Yingji's bastard!" Some brothers were overjoyed when they heard this.
But what Nie Fei is concerned about is not only Liu Yingji's ending, but the latter point: "You said that the imperial court wants to recruit us?" ”
"Hmm!" Lu Peng nodded: "It is also clearly written above, saying that the government is not responsible for our past affairs, as long as our brothers can return to surrender, their original positions will remain unchanged." Mr. Qian, do you think we should believe this? ”
With this question, everyone's eyes focused on Nie Fei's face. If they were hesitant to attack the nearby county town before, the idea of being appeased this time is what everyone longs for the most. After all, they are living too hard now, and they have long lost their previous rhetoric, and they just want to live a peaceful life again.
