Chapter 624: It Must Be Stable
The Forbidden City, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
Zhu Youqi's face turned pale, and he turned around, unexpectedly, in just over an hour, many court officials were attacked, and several of them were seriously injured, this is something that has never happened, what does Ying Tianfu eat, and the law and order cannot be maintained, this mansion Yin is really impatient.
It is not very clear what the identity of the person who carried out the assassination is, but the news came from Jinyiwei.
The eunuch soon came in.
"Your Majesty, Lord Sun Chengzong asks to see you, and Lord Su ......"
"Alright, pass them in."
Seeing that Sun Chengzong, Su Tiancheng and the others were safe and sound, Zhu Youzhen breathed a sigh of relief, this is his minister of the humerus, and there must be no accidents, otherwise it will be difficult to say.
Among the ministers who came in, there was also the governor of Ying Tianfu.
Seeing Ying Tianfu Mansion Yin, Zhu Youzhen snorted.
Fu Yin already knew what was happening at night, and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty......"
"I also know that you are guilty, but in one hour, so many things have happened, and there are assassinations everywhere, what did Ying Tianfu do, how will I punish you."
Before Fu Yin could speak, Su Tiancheng stepped forward and spoke.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say."
Zhu Youzhen looked at Su Tiancheng, and his expression eased a lot.
"Su Aiqing has something to say, just say it."
"The minister also suffered an assassination, not far from the temple fair, more than 20 people who assassinated the minister, all died, from their mouths, found these wax pills, when the minister was in the capital of Kuizhou. This thing was also found in the mouths of those bald rogue sergeants, and the minister had once investigated and found that these people were Houjin Tartars, so the minister suspected that these people were assassins sent by Houjin. Moreover, these assassins are not people with strong martial arts. ”
Zhu Youzhen was a little nervous, Houjin actually sent an assassin and came to the capital, which is worth it.
"What, these Houjin Tartars, I really didn't expect it, I was going to have fun with the people, but Houjin actually sent assassins. I must investigate and deal with it seriously. ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there is no need to be nervous."
Zhu Youzhen looked at Su Tiancheng, his face was not very good-looking, Houjin sent assassins, and they all entered the capital, such a thing is not seriously investigated. Could it be that the assassins were allowed to plunder, and everyone in the capital was panicked.
"Su Aiqing. I still have to investigate and deal with this matter. ”
"Your Majesty, the minister's meaning, the investigation and punishment need to be investigated, you can take it slowly, don't spread it out. Don't let the common people know the way, and don't even let the lords of the court know the way. ”
"Why did Su Aiqing say that?"
Sun Chengzong has been signaling to Su Tiancheng with his eyes, such a big matter, why don't you investigate it, even if what Su Tiancheng said makes sense. This kind of thing can't be tolerated, if the capital is full of Houjin Tartar assassins, then the world is not in chaos.
"Your Majesty, the minister analyzed it, and Houjin is probably thinking that the court will make a big move, and the emperor will not even be able to enjoy with the people."
"Oh, why does Su Aiqing have such an opinion."
"The minister has observed, the assassins who assassinate the ministers, and the Houjin Tartars who attacked the capital of Kuizhou, are completely different, these assassins don't have much ability, to be honest, with their ability, if they want to really assassinate, I'm afraid it will be difficult for some strongmen, if Houjin wants to assassinate my Ming ministers, they will definitely send the strongest assassins, and they shouldn't choose to bloom everywhere, an hour of time, assassination everywhere, the minister thinks, Houjin must have other purposes."
"Then tell me, what is the purpose of Houjin?"
"The minister thinks there are three purposes, the first purpose, is undoubtedly thinking that my Ming court will make a big move, public investigation, in this way, the Spring Festival will definitely not be able to have a good time, among the people, it will undoubtedly have a great impact, so that the people fall into a panic, destroy the peace and harmony of my Ming Dynasty, besides, the government investigation, time is urgent, it is difficult to cover all aspects, it must affect a wide area, and even someone may suffer manslaughter, today is the twenty-fourth of the lunar month, in the eyes of the people, it is a special day, Many people, starting from today, began to really celebrate the New Year, if it is a comprehensive investigation, the impact is huge, and it may even affect Beizhili and other places. ”
"The second purpose, Houjin wants to transfer his own pressure, the emperor is clear, when the minister exterminated the Liukou in Sichuan, Houjin is looking forward to the victory of the Liukou, so that my Ming will inevitably fall into the situation of fighting on both sides, for this reason, the Houjin army is even ready, waiting for me to enter the customs again when the Ming Dynasty is chaotic, unfortunately, the emperor Shengming, His Royal Highness the Prince is heroic, the Liukou has been completely exterminated, in this case, the blow to the Houjin is not small, their army has been prepared, It's a pity that there is no chance to enter the customs, and I dare not enter the customs, in such a situation, those civil and military ministers of Houjin must be dissatisfied, and Huang Taiji sent people to assassinate in order to divert attention, hoping to cause a sensational impact. ”
"The third purpose, to cause chaos in my court, I am peaceful and peaceful, the emperor allowed all over the country to enter Beijing to celebrate, in order to make this Spring Festival more lively, Houjin Tartar may also be mixed into the opera troupes in various places, or may be a separate troupe, or form other teams, into the capital, if the minister expects it well, Houjin is seriously prepared, maybe in the process of investigation, it may also involve local officials, if it is a large-scale investigation, it may involve a lot of officials, so that many adults are uneasy."
"Therefore, the minister thinks that an investigation can be launched, but it should be investigated secretly, and it will be enough to deal with those Houjin Tartars, and the emperor will still have fun with the people, and it is enough to strengthen vigilance."
"The minister thinks that Ying Tianfu Mansion Yin does not have much responsibility, and Houjin has been fully prepared, and it is impossible for Lord Mansion Yin to know in advance."
Sun Chengzong and others were shocked, there were assassins sent by Houjin in the capital, at this time, if the emperor is still happy with the people, what if there is a problem, who will be responsible.
Unable to care about much, Sun Chengzong spoke.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Lord Su said is reasonable, the imperial court does not need a large-scale investigation, and secretly strengthens the vigilance, which is enough to deal with, Ying Tianfu Mansion Yin does not have much responsibility, such a thing cannot be predicted in advance, but the emperor and the people are happy, there is still something to consider, and now the matter has not yet begun to investigate, I don't know how many Houjin assassins are in the capital of Ludao, if someone specifically targets the emperor, the ministers are guilty."
Su Tiancheng looked at Sun Chengzong, it's hard to say anything, in fact, at such a time, the emperor needs to show courage, so that he can completely smash the conspiracy of Houjin, the assassins entered the capital, but they can be big or small, with these assassins, thinking about disturbing the situation in the capital, it should be said that it is a fool's dream, but if the court cares too much about this matter, it is difficult to say.
It should be said that Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty grasped the mind of the ministers of the Ming Dynasty and concluded that the capital would fall into chaos.
In fact, Sun Chengzong thought about it, if the emperor can't have fun with the people, the impact will be the greatest, there is no need for publicity, the people will definitely guess, something is going on, when the time comes, the Tartars hidden in the capital, taking advantage of the situation to spread rumors, will definitely cause chaos, this kind of atmosphere, must be stopped.
Discord is bloodless, can destroy the unity of the court, make people panic, and will form a deformed desire for power, the court is not monolithic, not so calm, if a large-scale investigation is launched, the Dongchang internal guard and Jinyi Wei show their skills, and make a bloody storm, this is the biggest internal friction.
After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, Su Tiancheng did not bow his head, raised his head and looked at Zhu Youzhen, and it happened that at this time, Zhu Youzhen also looked at him, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Okay, needless to say, I have decided, I still have to have fun with the people, if it is a little trick of Houjin, it will make me retreat, what kind of face do I have, I believe in your Aiqing, the matter of the investigation, or should Tianfu be responsible, according to the principles said by Sun Aiqing and Su Aiqing, it must not spread, nor can it cause turmoil, the investigation must be carried out secretly, however, from today onwards, if something big continues to happen, I will not be spared."
After leaving the Heart Cultivation Palace, Ying Tianfu Mansion Yin clasped his fists and saluted Sun Chengzong and Su Tiancheng to express his gratitude.
Su Tiancheng sighed softly, Ying Tianfu Yin's burden is very heavy, and it is impossible to be perfect when he investigates, in order to ensure the safety of the Jingshi and the safety of the Spring Festival, some means must be used, otherwise Lord Fu Yin's official hat will not be kept, and it is impossible for Su Tiancheng to ask Fu Yin to be people-oriented.
"Lord Fu Yin, this investigation is not simple, the emperor's requirements are very high, if you don't pay attention to it a little, if something happens, the emperor will blame it, and the official can't do anything."
"Adults teach the lower officials."
Fu Yin saluted Sun Chengzong again and again, remembering that there was sweat on his head, this task was indeed not simple.
"This official can't think of a good way, he hasn't been in contact with military affairs for many years, you should ask Master Su for help in this matter."
Fu Yin hurriedly saluted Su Tiancheng.
"Your Excellency, save the lower officer."
"The official doesn't have a good way, but it's really not simple at this time, this is also the suggestion that the official made on the emperor's premise, naturally it can't be shirked, so let's do it, there are a thousand pro-soldiers in the Jiangning battalion, stationed in the Beijing camp, the official will transfer them all to the capital to help you investigate, these pro-soldiers, with very good ability, are also familiar with the Houjin Tartar, with their help, I believe the investigation will be much faster."
"Lord Xie Lu, Lord Xie Lu, Lord Xie Lu, Xia Guan will personally go to the Beijing camp to pick him up, and he will go tonight." (To be continued......)
