"There are people in the court who want to be Qin Hui, and they want me to be Yue Wumu!"

Zhou Yanru looked at the letter in his hand, his eyes were straight, his hands trembled, and the letter almost fell to the ground.

This is a letter sent to him by Chen Zilong, and the words in the letter were said by Nanhai Bo in front of Chen Zilong seventeen days ago. The blessing of the steamship newly invented by Tuo Nanbo now takes only 12 days to travel from Qin'zhou to Jinling, and from Jinling to the capital, it takes another five days to pass by fast horse.

Zhou Yanru's hands were trembling, Yu Guozhen's words, could it be him?

In addition to him, who else in the court can be Qin Hui, and besides him, who is qualified to be Qin Hui?

Others don't know how powerful Yu Guozhen is, but Zhou Yanru is different, he knows. If before the meeting, he still had some underestimation of Yu Guozhen, then after that meeting, he understood that he was a literati, and he would not be the opponent of a martial artist like Yu Guozhen.

If Chongzhen Tianzi wants him to die, an edict is enough, but he wants to deal with Yu Guozhen...... Even thousands of troops may not be able to succeed.

"Please...... Hurry up and invite Wu Laizhi and Dong Xinkui to come! ”

Zhou Yanru calmed down, and then ordered the servant. Dong Xinkui is good, no, this is a broker in the capital, but he has to be credited and help him deal with some things that he is not suitable for in person. As an official, Wu Changshi generally wants to avoid suspicion and prevent him from coming to the door easily. Therefore, after saying that, he thought about it wrong, so he said again: "No, set up a sedan chair, Jian Cong, I'll go to Dong Xinkui's house." You go and tell Wu Laizhi that I am waiting for him in Dong Mansion and ask him to come quickly! ”

Dong Xinkui was originally a scoundrel, mixed up with a Wei Zhongxian's dogleg, and after this dogleg angered Wei Zhongxian and was killed, he seized his house and dug up 3,000 taels of silver. This is how to start the house. colluded with the factory guards and national relatives, and after Wu Changshi and Zhou Yanru entered Beijing, he colluded with these two again. Collect bribes for them and do things that are inconvenient for the two of them to appear in person. Therefore, he won the trust of Zhou Yanru and Wu Changshi. Seeing Zhou Yanru coming, he first saluted, and then said with a smile: "The elder of the pavilion does not rely on the red and green at this time, but he has the leisure to come to me?" ”

"Hugh is talking nonsense, I invited Wu Laizhi, and waited."

Zhou Yanru was in an unhappy mood, so he didn't say anything to him, Dong Xinkui smiled, his face didn't change, but he changed the topic. mentioned some anecdotes in the capital, although Zhou Yanru just hummed haha, Dong Xinkui kept talking.

After waiting for about half an hour, Zhou Yanru was anxious and was about to send someone to urge. Finally, I heard a loud laugh outside the door: "Haha, why did I say why the magpie jumped the branch this morning, it was originally called by the elders!" ”

"Come on, Hugh said this, I have a letter from Chen Wozi here, you can take it and take it." Zhou Yanru snorted.

Although he is the first assistant. But many times, you have to obey this Wu Changshi. He also has self-knowledge, knowing that his first assistant can recover, relying on the strength of Zhang Pu and Wu Changshi, Zhang Pu and Zhang Tianru are now dead, but Wu Changshi, who is more vicious and more insidious, has become the only person in his secret room, and he has to listen to Wu Changshi's opinion if there is any big matter.

For such a long time, the only thing he didn't listen to Wu Changshi's opinion was that he never took the initiative to deal with Yu Guozhen, and even asked Chen Zilong to bring a letter to express his goodwill.

"Chen Wozi enjoys happiness in Qin' Prefecture, but he still remembers the elder of the pavilion, and it is finally in vain that the elder of the pavilion promoted him." Wu Changshi was somewhat dissatisfied with Chen Zilong, because after the substantial split in the Fushe, Chen Zilong became a carefree centrist, neither on his side nor on the side of Zhang Pu, nor on Fang Yizhi's side.

"Look at the letter, read the letter!" Zhou Yanru was impatient.

"You don't have to read it, the content of the letter, the subordinate can roughly guess it." Wu Changshi said with a smile: "It's nothing more than Nanhai Bo roaring, someone wants to force him to be Yue Wumu, I don't know who is Qin Hui in the court, Yue Wumu is foolish and loyal, so to the disaster of Yashan, he Yu Jimin is not willing to follow his foolishness, Huanglong has not been pounded, and he will never withdraw troops." ”

Zhou Yanru's heart suddenly felt cold.

In Chen Zilong's letter to him, only the first half of the sentence appeared, but the following words did not appear. Obviously, while Chen Zilong sent him a letter, he must also write a secret letter to the Son of Heaven, after all, Yu Guozhen may raise troops, and the world will be shocked when such news spreads, no matter whether Yu Guozhen's pretense is on the side of the Qing monarch or a direct rebellion, it will be a fatal blow to the stormy Ming Dynasty!

At the same time, Zhou Yanru had a new understanding of Wu Changshi's activity ability.

No matter how fast the secret music is, it was only about the same time as the letter to him was sent to Jingshi, and he saw the letter, and Wu Changshi actually saw the secret music. Wu Changshi colluded with the internal supervisor Wang Huamin and Ti Shuai Wu Mengming, and before the decree was issued, he often got the news, and even the ministers' impeachment of him had to fall into his hands first, and it would be handed over to Chongzhen after some revision.

"What else did Chen Wozi say in his secret recital?"

"Chen Wozi said that he has been in Qin'zhou for more than a year, and he really didn't see Yu Guozhen'er have any objections, but he also couldn't see that he had a sense of respect for the imperial court.

"Bold, bold!" Chen Zilong's words were clearly defending Yu Guozhen, Zhou Yanru was not concerned about this, but Chen Zilong said this, the imperial court had to push someone out to be that Qin Hui, and then cut Yu Guozhen's heart with a knife!

For the officials in the imperial court, who wants to be this Qin Hui of the inverted frieze?

"What the hell is going on?" Zhou Yanru vented, then calmed down and asked: "Chen Wozi's letter to me is vague, only that Yu Guozhen was assassinated, what is going on, could it be that the imperial court really sent someone......

Speaking of this, Zhou Yanru closed his mouth and glanced at Wu Changshi.

Wu Changshi sneered: "Others don't know about this matter, but I know it." ”

If there is any weakness in Wu Changshi, then he likes to show off, and some words should have been suffocated in his stomach, but he loves to show off, and he tells some people he thinks he can trust. Zhou Yanru sat up straight when he heard this: "Come on, say it quickly, say it quickly!" ”

"This matter was originally Zhang Tianru's last plan." Wu Changshi said: "When he was planning for the revenge of the elders, he had asked Wu Xiang, Liu Zeqing and others to raise some gold, and later outside Jinling City, this gold was taken by Yu Guozhen, which caused Zhang Tianru to dare not stay in Jinling anymore, and also made Wu Sangui and Liu Zeqing turn against each other, and were almost killed by Liu Zeqing on the way back. Later, Yu Guozhen and Liu Zeqing fought, and the cause was also this batch of gold. Zhang Tianru has always been dissatisfied with Yu Guozhen, so he secretly told Wu Xiang and his son about the matter, and asked Wu Xiang and his son to send the dead soldiers south. ”

Zhou Yanru glanced at him, Zhang Tianru's bones were cold, Wu Changshi said that it was Zhang Pu's doing, but in fact, he was only afraid that it was his own strategy, he had a very close relationship with Tian Guo, and he also asked someone to bring local products to Tian Guifei from his hometown, and the Tian family's covetousness of Xinxiang's wealth had already reached the point where his eyes were about to stare out.

I really don't know whether to live or die!

Zhou Yanru commented so in his heart, but he didn't say that he had a sore foot and was held by Zhang Pu and Wu Changshi.

Chen Zilong's secret recital said that the spy sent by Jianyu was captured and launched at the same time as the assassin of Yu Guozhen, so it was a gang, and some people in the imperial court and factory guards took the opportunity to find Yu Guozhen's steam engine and musket manufacturing skills, and they were all captured. The two sides launched at the same time, and Yu Guozhen believed that there was collusion with each other, so it was said that there was Qin Hui in the court. ”

Wu Changshi said it lightly, but Zhou Yanru listened to it thrillingly.

After being stunned for a while, he suddenly clenched his fists: It turns out that this is not a bad thing, it turns out that this is a great thing!

This is clearly a big gift from Yu Guozhen, and he can use this matter to attack those ministers who are against him.

Yu Guozhen's meaning, he felt that he had understood very well, that is, he wanted the court to give him an explanation, and it was also a warning to the court. This was the result of a resentment at the discovery that some people in the court coveted his wealth, and the court had to introduce a scapegoat in order to prevent him from turning this resentment into a real rebellion.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yanru glared at Wu Changshi: "Come, what did Your Majesty say?" Your Majesty should have seen Chen Wozi's secret recital, right? ”

"Your Majesty just scolded a few nonsense, and told Queen Zhou that Nanhai Bo is young and a little childish after all." Wu Changshi said with a smile: "Originally, Your Majesty was quite suspicious of Yu Guozhen, but Yu Guozhen's shouting, Your Majesty will not be serious with him." ”

Wu Changshi knows Chongzhen better, although Chongzhen is still suspicious of Yu Guozhen in his heart, but since Yu Guozhen shouted this matter, he can only pinch his nose and endure it.

I can't bear it, and then really say that there is Qin Hui in the court, and he, the self-proclaimed wise and decisive son of heaven, is the Song Gaozong who was frightened by the Jin soldiers?

"Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows...... Nanhai Bo went to war everywhere this year, first with the Great Luzon State, seized the city of Manila, and then went to war with the Japanese State, not only forcing the Japanese Shogunate to surrender, but also taking the Queen of the Japanese State as a concubine, and fighting with Zheng Zhilong and Hongmaofan Coalition Army, and seizing Dayuan Island. His words, ten out of ten, are the first to sue the wicked. ”

Zhou Yanru saw Yu Guozhen thoroughly, and someone saw it more thoroughly than him. Jinyiwei commanded Luo Yangxing to kneel in front of Chongzhen and secretly report the news he had gotten.

He has replaced Wu Mengming as the commander of Jinyiwei for a while, and he has figured out his intentions and knows that Chongzhen is jealous of Yu Guozhen, of course, he has not lost some news about Yu Guozhen. However, at this time, Jin Yiwei was far from the initial glory, and he was also more interested in asking for bribes than in power, and bribes - is there more bribes than Yu Guozhen?

Chongzhen had a calm face and said noncommittally: "I want to send someone to Qin' Prefecture to appease Nanhaibo for me, do you think...... Is there such a talent in Tiqi? ”

Luo's cold hair suddenly stood up, he knew his own family affairs and accepted Yu Guozhen's bribes, but he did not give Yu Guozhen less eye medicine, especially Jinyiwei's fanzi, and he did not go to the Xinxiang faction, and one third of the people arrested by Xinxiang this time belonged to Jinyiwei. If Chongzhen had a whim and asked him to "appease" Yu Guozhen, wouldn't it mean that he would be regarded as the "Qin Hui"?

"Your Majesty wants to send an envoy, if it is a public matter, you have your own court and the princesses, if it is a private matter, you have the nobility of the inner court, and the ministers are just your Majesty's minions, I really dare not say much."

He thought for a moment and replied in a cold sweat. (To be continued)
