Hearing that the old eunuch next to Mozi suddenly called out his name, his attitude was still so arrogant, and the second master Lu was slightly stunned in his heart.

He didn't know Chen Hong.

Lu Wei is just a Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, this position is not small, no matter what, it can be regarded as a positive fourth grade, deputy ministry level, even if it is delegated to a locality, it is also a prefect of a big mansion. This position is mainly responsible for the worship of the temple, and it is very noble.

However, it has little real power, and is generally used as a transition for officials who are about to be put to great use. For example, Li Chunfang.

It was also Lu Bing's idea for the second master Lu to be placed in this position, and it is estimated that he also felt that because he was in charge of the national sacrifice, he had a lot of contact with political leaders, and he could gather a certain amount of contacts, at least he could be familiar with the big shots.

He has indeed met a lot of nobles over the years, but because the eunuch is a Yin person, he can't participate in the important ceremony of the country. Therefore, I don't know Chen Hong, who ranks second among the ministers and is in charge of politics, law and security.

In fact, most of the courtiers had little interaction with their fathers-in-law. Contact with eunuchs is not only not a matter to boast about, but when it spreads, it is easy to arouse the contempt of civil officials.

This is also the reason why he didn't even know Huang Jin at the beginning.

Not to mention a mysterious figure like Chen Hong.

Just now, when Ren Boyi said in his ear that the few people dressed as Taoist priests in front of him were all eunuchs in the palace, Lu Wei was taken aback at that time, thinking that he had encountered some powerful characters.

But when I looked up, I saw that these people looked down, and there was nothing special about them.

Eunuchs love money and face, and they really mix well, such as the stewards of the thirteen yamen when they go out, who is not a mink jacket and fur, fresh clothes and angry horses, although Lao Tzu was stabbed, but today's wealth is not comparable to mortals.

It's almost like carving the word "money" on his forehead, and it's really rare to see such an inconspicuous father-in-law.

He thought it was just a few eunuchs who came out to play tricks, and he didn't take it seriously.

There are always three or five thousand eunuchs in the capital, and if you see a eunuch, you are afraid, and you don't need to be an official.

Second Master Lu was not afraid, he sneered and asked, "Who are you, how did you know Master Ben?" ”

"You're so bold, you asked about our family, and you were scared to death when you said it! Lu Wei, aren't you from the Lu Mansion, you are so arrogant. Chen Hong was furious, his voice was a little higher, and he subconsciously reached out to tidy up the official robe on his body.

It's a pity that he forgot that he came out with the emperor today, dressed in plain clothes, and had his hands on his body for a long time, only then did he find that he was wearing a shabby Taoist robe.

Second Master Lu smiled disdainfully, turned his head to Jinyiwei and shouted, "Come, give Lord Ben a crown." ”

Several brocade guards quickly invited out a big red official uniform, on which Huo Ran embroidered mandarin duck complements, and put them on for the second master Lu.

Lu Wei stretched out his hand to help the official hat, his face sank, and he shouted: "Do you know who I am, do you know me?" This official Lu Wei, Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, is an official of the fourth imperial court. Who are you, what rank are you, in which yamen do you serve, and who are your rulers? Imperial Horse Supervisor, Shang Yi Supervisor, Shang Bao Supervisor or Division Supervisor? These officials of the yamen management brands are all known, and they are actually rude to the officials, and if they commit the following crimes, they will definitely be arrested and punished by your management brands. ”

This is an exaggeration, it is clearly the Ming Dynasty version: who are you and who is the leader?

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was also extremely vigilant about the many restrictions on the rights of eunuchs. Therefore, although the eunuchs are also civil servants, their grades are very low. Even the ministers of ceremonies and eunuchs such as Huang Jin and Chen Hong are only four grades, and their food rank is equivalent to that of a prefect.

Second Master Lu didn't think that the eunuch in front of him with a perverse face would be the eunuch leader of the Thirteen Yamen, and the eunuch leader was not so sloppy. Therefore, no matter where he is sacred, his grade is definitely lower than his own. As long as he puts on his official uniform, if this dead eunuch dares to stop himself from catching the moth, he will not be able to escape from the following crimes.

He looked at the big red official mansion on his body, and he didn't feel a little proud, and his tone was aggressive: "Don't kowtow quickly, there are a lot of people in this official, and now there is important official business, and this woman needs to be arrested and questioned, so I won't worry about you." ”

"Do you want our family to kowtow to you?" Chen Hong was originally a narrow-minded and irascible person, when did he suffer this kind of grievance. Suddenly trembling with anger, he pointed at Lu Wei: "You, you, how are you...... It's still on the market...... What right does a Taichang Temple have to arrest people and try cases? Our family is going to take you down today and impeach you for the crime of overstepping your authority and disorderly government. ”

"Haha, you're doing a rake." Second Master Lu sneered disdainfully: "Nanzhen Fusi handled the case, let me Taichang Temple assist, it is reasonable to be reasonable and legal, and it is not to talk about overstepping authority and disorderly government." ”

This reason is also reasonable, and some major departments like the political axe of later generations jointly enforce the law.

Of course, the reason why you are a sacrificial person and a secret service structure to jointly enforce the law is a bit far-fetched.

Second Master Lu snorted coldly, and said in an accentuated tone: "It's a few of you, as internal servants, who have no official duties, and leave the capital for no reason, what kind of crime should you be guilty of?" ”

According to the system of the Ming Dynasty, eunuchs were not allowed to leave the city without a reason, except for official duties or stationed in other places. When this system arrived in the Qing Dynasty, it was even stricter: leaving Beijing without a reason was a capital crime.

Of course, the persistence is not carried out, another said.

After eating his snatch, Chen Hong trembled, and he couldn't even return his mouth.

There was a little eunuch next to him who couldn't stand it anymore, and jumped out: "Godfather, it's just a little four-grade idle official, what is your old man talking about with him, but you are angry and your body is your own, and the surname Suo has been taken down." ”

"Yes, it's all taken!" The other eunuchs were completely enraged by Second Master Lu and shouted in unison.

Factory guard, factory in the avant-garde, if it is suppressed by Jinyiwei, how will we do things in the future?

"It's so bold, I actually made a rough move in front of Nanzhen Fusi, and I took it all down." Second Master Lu also drank heavily.

"Stop, the old man Daojun is here, don't be alarmed." Although Chen Hong was reckless, he was not stupid, and waved his hand again and again.

Ren Bo was angry when he saw this scene in the back, he was an old ghost who handled cases, and he had his own set of ways to see and recognize people, and he had long sensed that something was wrong with this group of people. Especially the little eunuch shouted "godfather" one by one, which made his heart sink.

Those who can take in their sons in the palace can be counted on their fingers.

This time I should have provoked a big fish.

At the same time, he waved his hand to signal his subordinates to be patient, but sweat was slightly dripping on his forehead.

Seeing that Jinyiwei didn't move, Lu Er's face was displeased: "Ren Boyi, why don't you do it yet?" ”

Ren Boyi was a little embarrassed, and bowed his hand: "What a big deal, this father-in-law, Lord Lu, isn't it just a case that needs to be taken to criminal, is it worth making such a big move?" The big guys took a step back, they were all walking around the capital, and they didn't see each other when they looked up. That girl, where is Wu Jie? ”

Moth was so startled by the saber-rattling in front of him that he couldn't speak, and when he heard him ask, he shook his head: "Where is my master, I won't tell you, and if you have a kind, you will come to me." ”

Chen Hong: "What to retreat, this little girl is our niece, who dares to arrest her?" ”

Second Master Lu was still pausing, and shouted repeatedly: "Do it, take people." ”

was in chaos, and suddenly, Wu Jie ran out of the grove quickly, waved his hand again and again, and lowered his voice: "Everyone don't make trouble, the old man is quiet, and he can't listen to the noise here." ”

"Finally, I see you, you thief, little brute, I thought you were hiding and didn't dare to show your face!" When the enemies saw each other, they were very red-eyed.

Second Master Lu's eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire: "I'm also a scholar, dare to act, I finally didn't read the sage book in vain, go!" Ignoring the official's physique, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Wu Jie's neckline.

"Stop!" The moth's eyes flashed with anger, and he was concerned and angry, and he was about to rush forward.

Chen Hong grabbed her: "Don't worry, with our family here, no one dares to take Wu Shizhen away." ”

Wu Jie didn't carry it back, and said to Lu Er with a wry smile: "This is a misunderstanding. ”

"What a misunderstanding, little brute!" Second Master Lu's saliva sprayed on Wu Jie's face.

Wu Jie hurriedly turned his face away and said to Chen Hong: "Gonggong Chen, the old man means that you let everyone disperse, it's boring to make such a fuss." ”

"Yes." Chen Hong nodded, walked straight to Ren Boyi, and threw a sign over, "Go immediately, dare to leak a word about today's matter, and report to our house." ”

Ren Boyi took the sign and only glanced at it, and his body trembled violently. Sweat gushed out like a spring, and then returned the sign to Chen Hong with both hands: "Offended." ”

Then he turned his head and shouted to his subordinates, "Go, go back." ”

If you don't stay any longer, jump on your horse, and you're going to run away.

The other Jinyi guards didn't expect things to turn out like this, and they were still in trouble, and Ren Baihu shouted: "Go, listen to me, I'm your head." If you don't leave, you won't have to go to Nanya tomorrow to be on an errand. "There was a hideous look on his face.

"Yes." Then everyone jumped on their horses and dispersed with Ren Boyi.

"Ah, why are you gone?" Moth was taken aback and looked at Chen Hong with surprised eyes.

"You, you...... Come back, give me back......" Second Master Lu didn't expect Jin Yiwei to leave as soon as he said go, and he was caught off guard, so he realized that something was wrong.

Loosening Wu Jie's collar in a daze, he looked at Chen Hong: "Who are you, which yamen is from?" ”

Chen Hong: "Our family is not a royal horse supervisor, a Shangyi supervisor, a Shangbao supervisor or a supervisor, just a slave, who only knows how to be loyal to the master, but he doesn't care about what position and grade." ”

"How did it get like this, how did it get like this!" Second Master Lu muttered non-stop.

Chen Hong looked honest at the moment, and asked Wu Jie: "What else does the old man have to order, how to deal with this Lu Wei?" ”

Wu Jie: "The old man didn't give him any orders. ”

At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly snorted lightly: "The people of Taichang Temple can actually mobilize the Jinyi army, which rule is this?" ”

Hearing this, all the eunuchs dispersed at the same time.

Jiajing stood there in a Taoist robe: "Wu Jie, I suddenly want to give Bixia Yuanjun an incense, you come to write a green word." ”
