Not long after entering the phase, Li Jinzhong once again clearly felt the taste of being roasted on the stove. This feeling of discomfort and dilemma had also been felt when he was commissioned to inspect the East Palace two years ago. The difference is that this time, more than half of it was he who did not hesitate to fight with Lin Shu in front of the emperor, and finally won this unpleasant mission.

It stands to reason that the current situation is very different from two years ago, as the new emperor's most relied on minister, he has great power, fame and fortune, and it is the most proud time in life. However, I don't know why, since the day after Xia Zhaoyi's assassination in the Hanbing Palace, he received this mission from the emperor in the Yanying Palace to suppress the palace ban and inspect the remnants of the Zhang family, every morning when he opened his eyes, Li Jinzhong often felt an inexplicable palpitation and uneasiness: Empress Zhang, Furong, Xia Haitang, and even the emperor, the figures of these people appeared alternately in his mind, indelible, lingering, making him extremely painful. The sense of accomplishment and glory that came with building a new dynasty lasted less than 100 days before it almost disappeared.

It is said that with the rich experience that Li Jinzhong has accumulated over the years in the palace, it is not that he does not understand the truth of retreating bravely. The special decree given to him by the emperor before his death to the Duke of Jin also gave him the best opportunity to retire, but the Duke of Guo enjoyed glory and wealth and no longer set foot in the affairs of the court, which is indeed a complete life destination for ordinary people.

However, for today's Lee Jin-chung. This is an unattainable thing, because after the bloody night of Qingming, he formed a strong feud with the Zhang family, and Xia Haitang's assassination is the best proof in front of him.

When the rank of concubine was discussed in the Lin De Palace, Jing Xuan intended to elevate Xia Haitang's position, and the shrewd Li Jinzhong vaguely guessed that this woman must have an extraordinary identity. On the night when Jin met the emperor, she was suddenly assassinated in the Hanbing Palace, and Li Jinzhong could secretly conclude in his heart that this Xia Haitang probably had a very close relationship with the Yang family. Even if she is not the concubine of the Ji family, she must be the agent of the Yang family's forces to return to the harem that Mama Xia had arranged long ago before her death.

What made Li Jinzhong particularly uneasy was that although the Zhang family had been dead for many days, and Zhang Liang had also fled to a foreign country, there were clearly dozens of dead soldiers who were willing to serve the Zhang family in the Daming Palace, and if there was no Xia Haitang, he would probably become the primary target of these people's assassinations. There would have been no such escape from death yesterday evening. It seems that the path of retreat chosen by the first emperor for himself is in fact a dead end, and it is destined to go through.

Thinking of this, Li Jinzhong leaned on the bed with half of his body, and his heart couldn't help but ripple with happiness.

Of course, there is no shortcut to retreat, and it is even more difficult to advance. From newcomers such as Lin Shu and Fu Yi who were reused by the emperor after ascending to the throne to old ministers such as Wu Bi and Liu Yi who were regarded as henchmen by the emperor, the emperor obviously did not include himself in the ranks of the ministers reused by the new dynasty, and wanted to swim against the current in this situation. How difficult it will be to monopolize power.

I didn't come up with a reason for a long time. Li Jinzhong simply stopped thinking nonsense, turned over and sat up, and called out to the outside of the room: "Someone." ”

The little servant who served him entered in response and asked with a smile, "Master, what do you command?" ”

Li Jinzhong raised his hand and pulled back the gray hair that was scattered over his shoulders, yawned and asked, "Is there any news from Lu Guangting?" ”

The little guy took two steps. While serving Li Jinzhong to get up and change his clothes, he replied cautiously: "Master, Master Lu came to visit last night in the past three watches, and the little one didn't dare to alarm you, I think he should have news there, right?" ”

Li Jinzhong pushed the little guy away heavily. He lowered his face and scolded: "Things that don't have long eyes, this kind of thing has to wait until dawn to come and go?" Why don't you go and call him to the old man! ”

The little guy was almost pushed to the ground by him, and with a trembling voice, he turned around and ran out like a smoke.

Li Jinzhong sat alone on the edge of the bed, and couldn't help but recall once again the thrilling scene that happened to him yesterday evening: At the end of the Shen Dynasty yesterday, on the way back to his house after personally leading people to inspect the palace, three bone-piercing nails suddenly shot out of nowhere, brushing his face in unison, almost making him blood splash on the spot. Rao reacted quickly, and even if he ordered someone to close the street and search, he did not find any trace of the murderer.

It was only ten months since Xia Haitang was assassinated, and these dark lines laid by the Zhang family before his death actually shot again without scruples, and the target of the assassination this time was actually himself who was ordered to investigate the case, which made Li Jinzhong shudder.

After the assassination incident, he did not alarm the emperor in the palace, but immediately sent an order to Lu Guangting, who had just been transferred back to the palace to serve for a short time, and strictly ordered him to take people to investigate all corners of the imperial city overnight, leaving no chance for the assassin to hide and escape, and striving to arrest him in the shortest possible time.

Li Jinzhong is very clear about the emperor's intention to reuse his plan to preside over the Jing Palace: at present, there is not much peace inside and outside the capital, the new emperor has been on the throne for less than 100 days, and his wings are not yet full, and he has a common enmity with the Zhang family, and he is quite powerful in the court and the palace, so he can be used to deal with the remnants of the Zhang family, stabilize the situation in Beijing, and buy time for Fu Yi to quell the rebellion in the north and the king and vassal victory in the south.

He repeatedly forced military power but could not, which fully showed that the emperor was actually not at ease with him, only so, at this critical juncture, Li Jinzhong did not want to show his cowardice in front of the emperor and leave a truth for others. He wanted to take down the assassin in one fell swoop before the news of his assassination spread in the court, and establish his irreplaceable authority in the eyes of the emperor and civil and military officials, so as to achieve his goal of seeking peace and saving his life with advance.

After only about a pillar of incense, Lu Guangting and Wei Chang came together, and walked side by side into the most heavily guarded study in the Jin Mansion, which made Li Jinzhong feel a little surprised.

After Zeng Qing left Beijing with King Mu's envoy to Tubo, Li Jinzhong took advantage of the situation to recommend to the emperor that Wei Chang, who had just joined his wife as a clansman, be transferred out of the Hanlin Academy, and promoted to Jingzhao Shaoyin in Jingzhao Mansion to cooperate with him to maintain law and order in the capital.

What Li Jinzhong didn't expect was that Wei Chang had only been in charge of the government for a few days, and before he had yet to sit on the hot ass in Jingzhao Mansion, Zeng Qing returned to the capital from Jiangling alone because of King Jiangling's house arrest, and took back the big seal of Jingzhao Mansion from Wei Chang's hands. As a result, although Wei Chang was promoted from a fifth-grade Hanlin scholar to a fourth-grade Jingzhao Shaoyin, he became an idle official with a position but no power. He left the pivotal place of Yanying Palace, originally to climb the big tree of Li Jinzhong, so as to seek a shortcut to promotion for himself, but now he only ended up in a light and leisurely body, and he was unwilling, so he soaked in the Jin State Mansion all day long, accompanying his sister who picked up halfway to grind his teeth and kill time, seemingly leisurely, but in fact, his heart was full of anxiety and uneasiness.
