Chapter 900: The Ugly Time of the Long Day (I)

On the 24th day of the tenth month of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, Beijing City, ugly time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

West City, in the middle of the house.

Yang Zhen stood with his eyebrows condensed, but countless thoughts in his mind were constantly circulating, he had realized that he had fallen into some trap, everything was in the other party's calculations, whether it was the previous experience, or being here at the moment, they were holding their noses to do it, and at the same time, he also had a clear opinion - the other party must have ulterior motives for transferring himself and others from the Suppression Division.

"Caring is chaotic, I shouldn't be out of proportion because of impatience......" Thinking of this with some self-reproach, Yang Zhen took a deep breath again, telling himself that it was not too late, and now that he has noticed that something is wrong, as long as he does not follow the path that the other party has preset for him, he still has the possibility of turning defeat into victory!

At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation from outside the house: "It's on fire!" It's from the east of the city! ā€

"Over there...... It should be the area around Dong'anmen, could it be our Zhenfu Division......"

Hearing this, Yang Zhen unconsciously gasped, if his judgment was good, he was afraid that the location of this fire was really their Jinyi Guard's pacification division! After those thieves of the White Lotus Sect used tricks to transfer themselves and the others away, they suddenly attacked the Suppression Division.

As the Governor of Jinyi, Yang Zhen knew too well how fragile the Zhenfu Division was at this time, which made his heart clench suddenly, and he immediately walked out of the house in great strides, and then looked up to the east.

Although it was quite far away, Yang Zhen could clearly see a large area of firelight rising from the dark east, shining red in the night.

The brocade-clothed guards around them suddenly couldn't hold back: "Dudu, it seems that this is a trick of the enemy, we have to go back to the rescue quickly, otherwise we ......"

"Yes, Dudu, we haven't been able to find anything useful here, so let's go back quickly."

Originally, in front of Yang Zhen, these people would not be so eager to express their intentions, but would only obey his dispatch. But now, because such a big incident happened to the Zhenfu Division, everyone panicked, and they didn't care about any respect and humility.

Yang Zhen was also anxious, the Zhenfu Division was the most important place in the entire Jinyiwei, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was the heart of the Jinyiwei. There are many top-secret materials, and some evidence related to the hundreds of officials of the imperial court are in it, as well as the prisoners in the edict prison...... All this is the foundation of Jinyiwei's foothold in the Ming officialdom. Now that it has been set on fire, how can he, as the governor of the brocade guard, not be in a hurry?

So after hearing the urging of his subordinates, Yang Zhen quickly gave an order: "Pass my order, let Cai Yingyang, who is guarding the outermost, rush back to rescue immediately, and the others will ...... with me" Speaking of this, he was stunned, and a thought that had just been born occupied his mind again.

"Those thieves have been leading me by the nose since they kidnapped Luo Yueying's second daughter, and it is because of this that the Zhenfu Division will fall. But is that their ultimate goal? Although the Suppression Division is bound to cause great damage if it is burned down, the elites of our Jinyi Guard are all outside, and the blows they can inflict are just that. And then their situation will be even more difficult, will they be so careless? The more he thought about it, the more Yang Zhen felt that something else was wrong, and he must no longer be led away by the actions of these guys.

Seeing that the governor of his own house suddenly stopped halfway through the order, everyone was a little puzzled and stunned, and looked at the silent Yang Zhen blankly, waiting for him to continue to order.

After a while, Yang Zhen raised his head again and issued an order that surprised everyone: "Except for Cai Yingyang and his men to rush to the rescue, everyone else stays in place and must not act rashly!" ā€

"Ah......" Everyone was stunned, I don't know what Yang Dudu means by this, now that the Zhenfu Division has been burned, he still wants to stay here? Moreover, this house has been rummaged through by everyone, and no other clues have been found, so why is there any need to continue to stay?

At this time, it reflects Yang Zhen's prestige in Jinyiwei. Although this order was very strange and completely contrary to everyone's thoughts, after Yang Zhen gave the order, everyone was only slightly stunned, but none of them dared to object, but only agreed in a low voice.

"Go, now spread my message to the people outside, and tell them to do it!" Yang Zhen ordered again with a solemn expression.

Only then did a few brocade guards rush out and give orders. And Yang Zhen, when everyone's eyes converged on him again, he fell into contemplation again-

What other conspiracy those thieves had, he naturally had no way of knowing. Even, until this time, he didn't know where Zhang Luo's second daughter was hidden in Beijing. The only thing he knows is that there is less and less time left for himself, and once the day dawns, the second daughter may lose her life at any time.

"Judging from the situation here, the thieves of the White Lotus Sect have not stayed here for long, only the guy who committed suicide is here alone, waiting for us to crash into the door. And in order to deal with us who came here, they also prepared a lot of fire-inducing things, if the brothers didn't move fast enough, it would be easy to cause casualties......" Yang Zhen's gaze kept sweeping around the courtyard, as if he wanted to see some clues from it.

But this time it was in vain, since the other party was Yang Zhen's old opponent, he naturally understood his strength, how could he leave clues? Just now, his brothers also conducted a careful search of this courtyard, but still did not find anything valuable. In this way, the clue is not in this yard!

This realization makes Yang Zhen very uncomfortable, is it really not at all gained? Is there anything you've overlooked?

Just when his head hurt a little when he thought about it, Yang Zhen's eyes fell on the fire oil in the room again, and a thought suddenly flashed out: "They set the trap here just to catch us off guard, so they have no other intentions?"

"If there's a fire here, we're going to get out. And at this time, if something happens to the Suppression Division, according to common sense, my Jinyi Guard's people will rush back to fight the fire and save people as soon as possible...... As a result, the surrounding area will be completely neglected by us. They had already seen this, so they would take advantage of this opportunity to calmly evacuate, or hide somewhere else, or wait until dawn to leave through the city gates. At that time, my Jinyi Wei was too busy to take care of themselves, and it was impossible for me to have the spare energy to take care of them, and the imperial court would definitely not be able to close the door of the entire capital because of my matter of suppressing the Fu Division, which would only make Beijing chaotic! ā€

After thinking about it like this, a clear plan had completely emerged from Yang Zhen's mind, and he was originally very anxious, but at this moment, a smile was revealed. Now that we've seen through the enemy's plans, it's much easier to do next.

"Someone, send an order, except for Hu Ge who is guarding the periphery, everyone else is in a group of ten people, with this courtyard as the center, to search all the surrounding houses! But if there is something suspicious, you can take people first, but if there is resistance, don't worry about killing! A murderous order was categorically said by Yang Zhen.

Although everyone didn't know what Yang Zhen had in mind, since the governor had given the order, they would not have the slightest suspicion, and they immediately moved quickly.

And Yang Zhen stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the still red sky from afar: "Since you have raided the Zhenfu Division, then the manpower here must be very insufficient, as long as my people are fast enough, I can take you all down before you react!" ā€

The depths of the Forbidden City.

Wanli, the Son of Heaven, who was supposed to be resting in the dormitory, was actually standing outside the hall at this moment, looking at the red sky in the east from a distance, and muttered for a while: "Tell me, where will this fire be?" Because of insomnia, he walked out at the suggestion of his close servant Zhang Whale, but he didn't want to see such an amazing scene.

Although the emperor could only see the red sky in that corner because of the heavy palace walls, he still felt strange and curious, so he asked.

In front of the Son of Heaven, how could those ordinary servants dare to reply casually? Only Zhang Whale smiled carelessly: "The only slaves and maids in the east know about this is Jinyiwei, Zhenfusi and Dongchang." ā€

"You said that the Pacification Division would do something like this? I don't believe it, Yang Qing has always been steady, how could he let his place catch fire? The Emperor smiled and shook his head.

Zhang Whale hesitated slightly, as if he had thought of something, and then said: "Do people miss their hands and horses stumble." Except for the Zhenfu Division and the East Factory, there is no big place in the east that can cause such a big fire. ā€

"Really? I can only say that it is the East Factory. You made a note of it, and after opening the palace gate tomorrow, you will go and find out the matter. If I lose, I'll reward you with something. The Emperor tightened his robe as he spoke, as if feeling a little cold, and turned back to the dormitory.

Zhang Whale glanced at the fiery sky again, and slowly exhaled a breath: "Marquis Longping, how can you speak in front of Your Majesty as you wish, your 50,000 taels of silver are not in vain." Thinking of this, he hunched over and followed Wanli back into the dormitory.

At the same time, a group of men in black came to the back door of a rather wealthy mansion, and with a knock on the door, a steward came out and welcomed them in.

If anyone can walk along this mansion, they will find that this is the mansion of the Marquis of Longping. And these people who came to vote at night were the guys who killed in the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division and set a fire.

They actually have a lot to do with Marquis Longping, and moreover, Marquis Longping is also in collusion with Zhang Whale, this net covering Yang Zhen and Jinyiwei is even bigger than he thought!
