On this return voyage, Xie Hong made up his mind to make it bigger, so the movement was really not small, not only Shandong and Tianjin, but even the capital was shaken. [Full text reading]

At the beginning, the shaking of the capital was not because of Xie Hong, at least the courtiers did not know that this incident was also caused by Xie Hong. All they knew was that the emperor suddenly led the whole division of the Guards out of the city, saying that he was going to hunt, but he did not return all night, and then disappeared for two days.

In the face of such a situation, no one in the DPRK and China can continue to remain calm.

It's not the first time that the emperor has disappeared, the first month of the first year, it's even weirder than this time, this time it's a big fanfare, and the people in the capital are looking at it.

But even if there is a precedent, this is not a good thing. Before this time, the emperor often ran outside the city, either to hunt or to train.

At the beginning, there were some upright ministers who blocked the way, and they were able to succeed a few times from time to time. But later, after Tu Xun died, the emperor directly sent the three dukes to open the road, and no one dared to stop him this time.

This man is famous!

Now in the minds of the Shilin people, although the power is not as good as Gu Dayong and Liu Jin, the notoriety of the third father-in-law has surpassed the two of them, and he has become the second only to Xie Hong, and he has escaped from the category of the Eight Tigers, which is unique.

"Who is the first to annihilate through the ages, there are eight tigers in the Zhengde Dynasty, the group of eunuchs are in charge, and the plague gods and evil dogs are worried."

In this nursery rhyme that is widely circulated in the capital, it is the current situation of the Zhengde Dynasty, in which the plague god is of course the first evil Xie Hong, and below it is the evil dog Xiao San'er.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, the third father-in-law really didn't do anything, and the most famous was the one-on-one fight with Tu Xun, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, in the Jinluan Palace. However, whether the reputation is not good is not because of how many things have been done, but because of how big things have been done.

Killed the Shangshu of the dynasty on the Jinluan Palace, which is also the first eunuch in the ages. Therefore, the third prince is also notorious, and in the Gyeonggi area, his daimyo also has the effect of stopping children's night crying.

Even many people have changed the door gods at home, invited Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong, and pasted the portrait and name of the third father-in-law, although the first two are mighty, they are not vicious enough after all, and the evil ghosts have to be grinded by the wicked, with the more vicious three fathers-in-law, the evil ghosts also have to retreat.

With such a master opening the way, Zhengde's ears have been cleared a lot, and there is no longer an eye-opening step forward to block the way, even a few days ago, he went out of the Guangqu Gate with great fanfare, and the courtiers could only see him off with silent gaze.

Gu Dayong didn't care much about the third father-in-law's popularity, but Liu Jin's eyes were red.

But it's useless to envy, since that court meeting, the emperor has not been to the court for a long time, the courtiers have suffered several losses, and they simply don't urge, and the well water on both sides does not violate the river water After these months, it is in response to an old saying: The emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry.

If you can't stop him, let him go, these words, the courtiers uphold this point of view. Anyway, without the plague god, the emperor is alone, at best, it is a strike and beating, otherwise what else can he do? Fighting with the old fox in the court, the emperor is still a little tender.

This point of view was maintained until Zhengde went out of Guangqu Gate and then did not return all night. By the next day, the courtiers had to pinch their noses and start painful memories, oh my God, why did you forget it, this strange emperor would still play missing!

If such a situation had happened in the previous two years, the capital would have been out of the capital a long time ago, and all passes would have been closed, putting on a posture of strict defense.

Fire prevention, anti-theft and anti-emperor, just like the one in January last year, as long as there is no big omission, the emperor will always be blocked. But this year, it is not good, all the departments of the Beijing camp have basically been out of the control of the foreign court, whether it is a strict order, or a promise of heavy remuneration, all kinds of means have been exhausted, and only the old Beijing camp composed of nobles is a little tempted, but fools know that with these old soldiers, whether they can recognize the road near the capital is a problem, not to mention finding the emperor, but also blocking the other party back.

The other ministries were strictly controlled by the inner court, or the generals of Xie Hong's system, whether it was the messengers of the outer courts, or the courtiers who came to the door in person, the result was the same, and they couldn't even enter the camp gate.

Without a holy decree, don't think about transferring troops! After a long time, all they got was such a hard reply, and the courtiers were helpless, and even many people had the idea of resigning themselves to fate.

Anyway, the emperor brought a lot of people with him this time, and it didn't look like he would have an accident, unless he went crazy and went out of the customs to the grassland to fight tartars...... Actually, if that's the case, it's not bad, without this scourge, the Ming court can get back on track.

Many people have such thoughts in their hearts, but they can't resort to words, what kind of annihilation and demagogy or something, it's all said to the outside world, who still doesn't understand? The root is still in the emperor.

Without the emperor's instructions, the third father-in-law dared to beat people on the Jinluan Palace? Without the emperor's support, how could Xie Hong have today's momentum? Even if these two people are gone, the emperor's pursuit of profligacy will not stop, let the emperor stop, this is the way to do it once and for all!

In the midst of the boiling sky, an undercurrent began to surge again.

However, with the arrival of the Shandong Express, the attention of the courtiers was diverted again, these old officialdom were all human spirits, combined with intelligence, they immediately guessed what happened to Zhengde out of the city, and even guessed his whereabouts.

Obviously, the emperor is going to Tianjin to pick up Xie Hong's fleet!

Shandong's urgent report arrived in Beijing earlier than Tianjin, not because of the distance, but because of the different mode of sending letters. The safe surname of the flying pigeon is not as good as that of the stagecoach, but the timeliness surname is very strong, so long before Tianjin received the news, the capital was already shaken.

Astound! The government and the opposition were surprised.

Zhu Qin's mood was also repeated by the ministers in the capital, and even exceeded, after all, the Zhu family's industry is in Fujian, and the business is also done in the direction of Luzon, to a certain extent, it can be said that it has nothing to do with itself.

However, for most Jiangnan scholars, this news is like five thunderbolts.

Although the news has not yet been confirmed, as long as you think about that possible surname, it is already chilling, the plague god has a history of robbing good people! As long as he has that ability, there will definitely be no reason why he can't do it in the face of the merchant ships of various families.

Now, the emperor has set out to answer it, and eighty percent of this speculation is true. Thinking that their belongings were looted by Xie Hong, and even the boat and people were taken in, everyone's hearts were about to drip blood, it was really distressing!

"Elder Wang Ge, what should I do, what should I do? At this point, you'll have to come up with an idea! ”

"Yes, then Xie Hong kills people and sells goods, and does all kinds of evil, if it goes on like this for a long time, what will happen to the business of each family?"

"God, how can there be such a scourge, it is still on the side of the Son of Heaven, could it be that the heavens are going to kill me...... Not. ”

The Jiangnan scholars gathered in the mansion of the university scholar Wang Wei, most of these people came to ask for advice, but under the six gods without masters, some people also said some taboo words, in short, it was a mess, and the quarrel made Wang Wei's head big.

Looking at the group of guys in front of him who were not in charge of the city, Wang Wei also felt desolate in his heart.

In the struggle to maintain the dynasty, the Jiangnan scholars have always rushed to the forefront, but they have suffered repeated setbacks, and the other party's methods are ruthless. After several storms, to this day, although the number of Jiangnan scholars in the court is large, most of them are people with insufficient experience and low grade.

Thinking of the grand occasion and seeing the chaotic scene today, how can Wang Wei not sigh?

"Fellow travelers, don't quarrel, can you get a countermeasure by shouting so much?" Suddenly, someone shouted, the sound was like a bell, and Wang Wei could still hear it clearly in the chaos, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that everyone was also frightened by his words, and they all fell silent.

The man waved his arms and continued: "It's just an unconfirmed news, not to mention that it may not be true, even if it is true, with your family business, it will not hurt your muscles and bones, so why do you want to be so worldly? For the sake of today, it is necessary to come up with countermeasures as soon as possible, rather than shouting here. ”

The person who spoke had a very loud voice, and his name also coincided, it was Hong Zhong, the imperial envoy of the right capital.

"What Xuan Zhi said is true, and this is exactly the truth."

Wang Wei bowed slightly to Hong Zhong, and then turned to everyone and said: "It's not a matter of one or two that Annihilation has gone against the grain, and many colleagues have also fallen under his butcher's knife. Now he is plundering your fellow Daoists again, which is really intolerable, but this way to deal with it has to be well planned so as not to fall into the plan again. ”

Someone sighed and reminded: "Wang Ge's words are indeed serious, but now that the emperor has left Beijing, with the speed of the Guards, it will be two or three days as fast, and three or five days as slow, and it will be in Tianjin. ”

"That's right, the Sacred Heart is bewitched by the annihilation, which is really embarrassing......" These words also caused a sigh.

"No wonder the annihilator did not hide his whereabouts, and traveled along the coast with great fanfare, it turned out that such means had been laid out a long time ago, which was really insidious, and even more ...... Alas. ”

This person's words are still unfinished, but everyone knows what he wants to say, Xie Hong deliberately did this, just to publicize his matter, and by the way, he slapped Jiang Nanshi a few times.

slapped in the face, robbed everyone's goods, and then swaggered through the market, making the world known, is there a more ferocious way to slap the face?

"And that's not all, think about it, why does the annihilator spread the word that there is a lot of goods in the fleet?" Someone else prompted.

"It's hard to ......"

"That's right, then the annihilator is still thinking about opening the sea ban! Last year, he let off wind in the capital, saying that overseas wealth is unlimited, although he bewitched many people, but after all, it was just a lie, and there was no way to confirm that it was true, but now it ......"

"God, this person is obviously a teenager, why is his scheming so deep? The plot has come to this point! It is actually ten steps at a time, robbing the goods of each family, and declaring the world, so as to deceive those who are greedy for money and love profit to go to sea! This...... It's simply ...... Evil spirits! Demons! ”

"This demon is going to cut off our roots!"

The heart-wrenching shouts resounded throughout the university scholars' mansions and echoed in the sky above the capital. There was an unaware passer-by, hearing this sound, he thought that Scholar Wang had also passed away, otherwise how could there be such a desolate cry in the house?

"Elder Wangge, you must not wait, you can't let Xie Hong and the emperor converge, you must find a way to solve the problem before they converge." Of course, there are many heroes in Jiangnan, although most people only care about venting their anger because they feel sorry for their own losses, but there are also sober people, and Hong Zhong is one of them.

"That's what Xuanzhi said." Wang Wei bowed his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The emperor is accompanied by guards...... I think there is nothing I can do, and Xie Hong's fleet is at sea, and I can't help it for a while......"

"So, the key is to let Xie Hong go ashore!" Hong Zhong said in a deep voice: "Zhu Maogong's letter makes it clear that he has summoned him to Nanjing and Tianjin, and he asked Tianjin to strictly guard the coast...... It is better to let him go ashore and then ambush him, which is the way to kill two birds with one stone. ”

"Okay, good way!" Wang Wei's eyes lit up, and he praised loudly, leaned forward slightly, and asked, "However, where did this soldier come from?" Can there be a competent person to preside? ”

"Wang Ge Lao Mingjian," Hong Zhong smiled slightly, leaned into Wang Wei's ear, and whispered, "...... In this way, what does Elder Ge think? ”

"Okay, let's do it." Wang Wei stroked his palm and smiled, and made a decision.
