Chapter 118: Cao Huachun

In the dormitory, there were only two people, Zou Yi and Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan took out the letter, naturally he would not personally send it to Zou Yi's hand, Zou Yi cautiously took a few steps forward, and took the letter from Zhang Yan's hand, he didn't dare to look at it immediately, but slowly retreated to the position where he was standing, and then he showed the letter and looked.

Zou Yi carefully read the contents of the letter, although he was a little frightened, but he was old and spicy, and there was not the slightest sound on his face. "Queen Mother, this letter ...... The old slave has already seen it, saying that Lord Yue intends to rebel, and the motive for rebellion is clear, this ...... The old slave really disagreed...... Not to mention that Lord Yue is the minister of Tuogu, but at the moment, based on this letter alone, there is no other evidence, and it is impossible to convict Lord Yue of his guilt......

"What does it mean that he is not guilty, if he hadn't seen the defeat of Yinguan, how could he have sent someone to assassinate my brother. My brother has no enemies in Zhejiang, and he went to Weifu, no one knows, it must be when he searched for evidence of Yue Su's crime in Hangzhou, he found his traces, and was killed by Yue Su! Zhang Yan said loudly angrily.

"Queen Mother, if this is the case, then it is even more impossible to send someone to Hangzhou to capture Lord Yue, if so, wouldn't it be Lord Yue who rebelled on the spot......" Zou Yi said carefully.

"He dares!" Zhang Yan raised her eyebrows and her eyes widened.

"Queen Mother, there is a matter, you also know, I think that Wei Zhongxian had falsely preached the holy decree and wanted to frame Lord Yue, but Lord Yue saw through it, and exposed it on the spot It was an overkill, and he also cleaned up Xu Xianchun, who went to pass the decree, ruthlessly. If this time, he still comes to paint a scoop according to the gourd......"

"Bastard! Last time, it was Wei Zhongxian and Xu Xianchun who falsely passed on the holy decree, this time it was a real holy decree, did he Yue Su really dare to rebel! Zhang Yan said loudly.

"Queen Mother...... Didn't you already say it just now, Yue Da's refusal is conclusive, and he will definitely rebel. How can there be such a thing as dare and dare not. The Queen Mother, you sent someone to announce the decree, Yue Su saw that the deeds were defeated, and he would definitely kill the person who delivered the decree, saying that it was an edict, and then tearing the flag to rebel. According to the content of the letter, Lord Yue has now subdued the soldiers and horses of Fujian and Zhejiang, and if the court Yinting does not do anything to him, he will point his sword at Nanjing, if the court really sends someone to take him, he must not immediately turn his face and send someone to attack Zhejiang. Even if the attack on Zhejiang fails, he can still retreat to Taiyin Bay. However, now the soldiers and horses in Nanjing are unprepared, once they are caught off guard by Yue Su, I am afraid that the entire Jiangnan will fall into the hands of Yue Su, and I hope that the Queen Mother will think twice...... "The old fox is the old fox, seeing that the Queen Mother cannot be persuaded directly, so he simply does the opposite, and says that Yue Su wants to rebel, and as soon as the holy decree arrives, it will be the time of the rebellion, and the Queen Mother, you will weigh it yourself."

Although Zou Yi was not sure whether Yue Su would rebel in the end, he knew one thing that he would never give an order to arrest Yue Su now.

Sure enough, after Zhang Yan listened to Zou Yi's words, her face sank, she nodded slowly, and thought to herself, what Zou Yi said was indeed good, since Yue Su had the intention to rebel, as soon as his holy decree arrived, how could he be arrested, it must be a disobedience to the decree, saying that it was an edict, and then he pulled the flag to rebel and attack Nanjing. If Nanjing is lost, half of the entire Jiangnan will be gone. In that case, it would be better to maintain the status quo. After all, Shaanxi and Shanxi are still fighting with the Liukou, and the Chaoyin court has been overwhelmed, and Yue Su has made trouble again, and the whole world will not be Yin.

It is inappropriate to give an order to capture Yue Su, and if he does not give an order to arrest him, Zhang Yan is still unwilling. Left and right couldn't think of a way, so they had to beg Zou Yi, "Zou Yi, give an order to capture Yue Su, I'm afraid that he will rebel on the spot, but if you don't make an order, you won't arrest him, and the mourning family is unwilling." What do you say you should do? ”

"The Queen Mother, when Lord Yue was the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, he sent silver to the court several times, and the court is now dealing with the rogue, it is the time when there is a shortage of money, and he is undoubtedly sending charcoal in the snow. Lord Yue also has friends in the court, and it is impossible not to know the situation in the court, if he really wants to rebel, he should sit idly by, wait for the rogue to become strong, and then do something, and he will never do this act of sending charcoal in the snow. Therefore, the old slave thought that this matter of Lord Yue should be treated cautiously and not hastily. Uncle Guo died in Hangzhou, and Lord Yue's twists and turns are estimated to be sent to Beijing soon, and then the Queen Mother will see what Lord Yue is saying, and then make a decision. Zou Yi helped Yue Su analyze it, and came up with a plan to delay the army.

Zhang Yan is not a fool, she was carried away by anger just now, and now after listening to Zou Yi's theoretical analysis, she immediately realized that she was impulsive just now. He is not an ordinary folk Yinren, but the queen mother who is high, the emperor is young, and the burden of the world is all against his own body, and he must not be too rash, otherwise he will make a mistake and become a thousand years of hatred. Zhang Yan nodded slightly and said, "You are very right, wait for this matter first, and see what Yue Su will say on the excerpt." ”

Early the next morning, Yue Su's excerpt was presented, and the officials in the court did not know about Uncle Zhang Guo's death, but the cabinet passed the fold, and the entire Beiyin Jingyincheng soon knew that Uncle Zhang Guo died in Hangzhou.

What Yue Su wrote on the fold is very simple, which has been introduced above. After Zhang Yan saw it, she glanced at Zou Yi who was standing opposite and asked, "Zou Yi, you have already seen this recital." What do you think? ”

"The old slave has indeed seen it, and I don't think there's anything wrong with it." Zou Yi replied.

"But he didn't know before, and he wanted to send the mourning family away as soon as possible, so it wasn't so easy." Zhang Yan said coldly.

"Yes......" Zou Yi replied cautiously.

"Not to mention whether he Yue Su really has the intention to rebel, even if my brother died under his rule, he should give me an explanation as soon as possible. Zou Yi, you are also a person who has served four generations of emperors, and your loyalty to Sheyinji is unparalleled. The mourning family now wants to ask you, what should the mourning family do now, first, not too reckless, and second, not too passive. Zhang Yan's tone became very modest.

For this matter, Zou Yi studied it for a night last night. Although he didn't believe that Yue Su would rebel, there was a case for everything, especially the Queen Mother, who was suspicious of Yue Su everywhere, and it was not impossible for Yue Su to really rebel because of this. Therefore, it is necessary to think of a complete solution.

Now the Queen Mother asked, Zou Yi sank slightly, and immediately replied: "Empress Dowager Qi, the old slave thinks that for today's plan, two preparations should be made, one is to issue a secret order to the Xu family in Nanjing, so that Wei Guogong is careful to be vigilant, once Yue Su really has a change, attacking Nanzhili, you must fight back with all your strength, and you can't let Yue Su succeed." ”

Zhang Yan nodded and said, "That's right, what about the other hand?" ”

"The second is to issue an order to let Lord Yue solve the case within a time limit, Lord Yue has always been known as the blue sky of the Yin world, but whenever the case comes to his hands, there is nothing that cannot be solved. Then it depends on how he solves this case, if he gets the murderer and breaks it reasonably, it means that Uncle Guo's death has nothing to do with him, but if it is perfunctory, it means that this case has something to do with Lord Yue. Zou Yi said.

"Very well, just do what you want. Draw up a secret decree and send it to the Wei Guogong Mansion in Nanjing, so that Wei Guogong will be careful and vigilant, and if Yue Su really rebels, he will be allowed to take over the defense of Nanjing. ”

"Yes."

"Draw up another will, limit Yue Su to solve the case by the end of the year, if the case cannot be solved, give the mourning family an explanation, and punish him for negligence."

"Yes." Zou Yi nodded again.

He thought that after the Queen Mother gave these two wills, there would be nothing to do, but he never thought about it, Zhang Yan continued: "Zou Yi, the mourning family has such a plan, you help the mourning family think about it, and see if it will be successful." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother."

"The officials in Fujian and Zhejiang, we have already checked, Wu Sinan, the governor of Fujian, seems to have something to do with Yue Su, but the general army of Fujian should have nothing to do with it, and it is unlikely that he will rebel. Over there in Zhejiang, Governor Cao Jian doesn't seem to have anything to do with Yue Su, the chief soldier Pei Xuan, I remember that he still had some festivals with Yue Su, how could he just take office in Zhejiang, so he mixed up with Yue Su and became Yue Su's henchmen, which really made the mourning family dare not believe it. Therefore, the mourning family was thinking, should they send someone to Zhejiang to see how Yue Su solved the case, and casually check whether Pei Xuan and Yue Su have anything to do with it, and whether he Yue Su really tried to rebel. Zhang Yan said.

"Queen Mother Shengyinming, it should be so." Zou Yi bowed in response.

"Then it's decided, the mourning family is ready to send someone to ......"

Hearing this, Zou Yi immediately decided that the Queen Mother must have planned to arrange this work for them in the East Factory. But he never expected it, and immediately after, the Queen Mother said the candidate, and this candidate really surprised him. "What do you think of letting Cao Huachun of the Imperial Horse Supervisor go?"

"Gonggong Cao's loyalty to the emperor, the queen mother and the Yinji of the court is unparalleled, and his ability to do things is also one of the best. It's just that...... He is now the palm seal eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, isn't it a bit ...... to let him go?"

"Cao Huachun's duties are a little bigger, but looking at Gong Yin, there are really few people who are too reassuring to the mourning family. You are also old, and the mourning family can't bear to be tired of traveling thousands of miles, so I can only let him go. ”

"Queen Mother Shengyinming, thank you for your compassion for the old slave......"

Having said that, Zou Yi still didn't understand why Zhang Yan didn't let the people from Dongchang go, was it because he didn't trust himself. But if you don't trust it, you won't be said by yourself, and you won't let yourself continue to be this palm print eunuch. What the hell is going on?

"Alright, you can go down and do your thing now." Zhang Yan waved her hand and looked tired.

"Yes, Queen Mother. The old slave retired ......"

Zou Yi left Cining Palace with a feeling of wonder. A quarter of an hour after he left, Zhang Yan in the palace immediately asked people to summon Cao Huachun, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor's palm seal.
