Chapter 839: A Few Joys and a Few Sorrows

After the Lantern Festival, the people of the capital found that there was a large-scale army on the street, and it turned out to be the pro-army of the imperial city and the Beijing army of the outer city to transfer the defense, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty is the first time this kind of thing has happened, which immediately caused a lot of discussion in the market.

At the same time, the lieutenants and wrestlers of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town attacked everywhere and wantonly arrested Chen Tianlei, Feng Changan and other "comrades" in the capital, including many high-ranking officials and dignitaries such as Lang Wutong, the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry, were arrested, which made the capital rumor and panic for a while.

Jinyi Weibei Zhenfusi's edict is the "Hades Palace", as long as you enter, it is difficult to get out, not to mention that there is also the king of Yue, Wutong and others, who are already over half a hundred years old under all kinds of torture, can't stand it at all, and they have opened their mouths to "confess" and admit to conspiring with Chen Tianlei and Feng Changan and others.

During this period, Jinyi Weinan Town Fusi Qianhu Lu Kun was in the limelight and dealt a ruthless blow to those who refused to confess, so that they had to give in.

It is worth mentioning that because Li Manshan, the envoy of Jinyi Wei Beizhen Fusi and Zhongwubo, was transferred to Nanjing, and the people of Beizhen Fusi were intentionally or unintentionally hung by the imperial court since Li Yuntian was involved in the arquebus case of the Bafang Warehouse a few years ago, so as not to interfere with the handling of the case, it is actually Jinyiwei who came from Nanzhen Fusi a year ago who is in charge of the Beizhen Fusi.

King Yue attaches great importance to Jinyi Weibei Zhenfu Division, and wants to support forces from it, and those people in Nanzhen Fusi are undoubtedly excellent candidates, not only have no intersection with the people in the capital officialdom, but also want to be transferred to Beizhen Fusi, so they will definitely do their best to do things for King Yue.

In the face of the group of people in Jinyi Weinan Zhenfu Si led by Lu Kun making waves in the edict of Fusi in Beizhen, several thousand households of Fusi in Beizhen unexpectedly kept a low profile under the leadership of Liang Sheng, not only did not compete with Lu Kun for power, but let him toss blindly.

From the current situation in the capital and the seemingly unintentional hints of King Yue, he felt that Fang Liang's case would brew into a shocking case, and as the commander of Jinyiwei, he had to be involved.

In fact, Wei Xin didn't want to get too involved in this case, after all, the lessons from the past are there, and the two commanders of the Jinyi Guard during the Ming Taizu period were both because they handled two rebellion cases that caused a sensation in the world at that time, namely the Hu Weiyong case and the Lanyu case, and they lost their heads one after another afterwards.

It's a pity that people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, and now Beizhen Fusi Zhenfu makes Li Manshan far away in Nanjing, and the affairs of Beizhen Fusi are naturally inseparable from Wei Xin, so Wei Xin has no way out at all, only to honestly follow the will of King Yue.

It is worth mentioning that King Yue did not only care about arresting people, he also rehabilitated the unjust case of two people, and was confessed by Fang Liang and Chen Tianlei together to be the cabinet member Yang Pu who was the mastermind behind the scenes, and Wang Hui, the left waiter of the Ministry of Industry, who wantonly arrested people in Jinyiwei and left the edict of Fusi in Beizhen.

After a thorough investigation by King Yue, Yang Pu and Wang Hui did not involve the cases of Chen Tianlei and Feng Chang'an, and the reason why Fang Liang confessed to Yang Pu and Wang Hui was because Fang Liang was deceived by Chen Tianlei and mistakenly believed that Yang Pu and Wang Hui were also involved in the matter.

Chen Tianlei and others did this firstly to bluff, using the names of Yang Pu and Wang Hui to make Fang Liang desperately do things for them, and secondly, to protect Wutong and other civilian officials.

In fact, Yang Pu and Wang Hui were not chosen at random, and there were hidden secrets in them.

Among the four cabinet elders, Yang Shiqi is the first assistant of the cabinet, and Yang Rong is the oldest cabinet member and Yang Shiqi's influence in the officialdom can be said to be equal, and Chen Shan is the former minister of the East Palace of Emperor Xuande, so it is only possible to rebel in Yangpu, which has the lowest status in the cabinet.

As for Wang Hui, it was Wutong who had a personal vendetta in the communiqué, and Wutong was firmly suppressed by Wang Hui in the Ministry of Industry, which made him very resentful, so he deliberately yin Wang Hui.

After Yang Pu and Wang Hui were released from prison, they came to thank King Yue, if it wasn't for King Yue's impartial judgment in the trial, the two would have been mired in this case, and then they would have become unjust souls who died of death.

King Yue did not put on the posture of a benevolent prince at all, but advised Yang Pu and Wang Hui not to mind the matter of entering the edict prison before, and continue to serve the Ming Dynasty.

After leaving the Yue Wang's Mansion, Yang Pu sat in the carriage with a blank face, although now the large and small yamen in the capital have begun to work, but because he stayed in the imperial prison for a while, he was able to go home to recuperate.

Yang Pu was very surprised that he was innocently implicated in Fang Liang's case this time, he acted calmly and low-key, thinking that he had not offended anyone in the capital, and he was very surprised why someone would give him such a heavy hand.

However, with the development of the situation, Yang Pu gradually saw some doorways, smelled a strange breath, he originally thought that this time it would be unlucky, but who would have thought that King Yue would let him and Wang Hui go again, but instead arrested Feng Chang'an and Wu Tong and others into the edict, and vigorously appeased him and Wang Hui.

At this moment, Yang Pu immediately realized that King Yue's behavior was for outsiders to see, to be precise, for the civil official group in the court, and wanted to win over the civil officials in the court.

Yang Pu was extremely worried about the actions of the king of Yue, and according to the Ming Dynasty, the children of the imperial family were not allowed to enter politics, especially the vassal kings were not only not allowed to step into the officialdom, but also were not allowed to make friends with the civil and military officials in the court.

King Keyue has been extremely active recently, and by presiding over the case of Chen Taiti and others, he has vigorously wooed the Chinese martial arts of the DPRK in the capital, which has exceeded his duties.

"Is the sky about to change!" Yang Pu glanced at the bustling pedestrians outside the car window, and couldn't help but muttered to himself, he couldn't help but miss Li Yuntian at this time, if Li Yuntian didn't die, then it would definitely not make the situation develop to such a point.

Kunning Palace.

"Zhongguo Gong, now that King Yue is becoming more and more powerful in the capital, do you want to watch him turn the clouds and rain in the capital?" Empress Sun looked at Zhou Zheng with a worried face, although she was in the harem, she still knew the situation in the capital well, and knew that King Yue was now wantonly wooing courtiers in the capital, which made her extremely worried.

Empress Sun had to pay attention to the situation in the capital, after all, the crown prince had not yet ascended the throne, and anything could happen before she sat on the dragon chair, so she had to guard against it.

"Queen, as the old saying goes, prosperity and decline, if you don't have two hearts, King Yue will definitely pay the corresponding price." Zhou Zheng knew Empress Sun's nervous mood, so he bowed to Empress Sun and comforted in a deep voice, "If the queen is not at ease, you can ask the queen mother for her life and transfer three thousand Xiaowu troops to protect the prince until the prince ascends the throne." ”

"Xiaowu Jun doesn't know that Zhenguo Gong is not dead, will they be unfavorable to the crown prince?" Empress Sun hesitated when she heard this, and seemed a little hesitant.

"The queen can rest assured, the person who led the army this time is the sixth lady of Zhenguo Gong, who followed Zhenguo Gong to fight in the south and north, and has a very high prestige in the Xiaowu army, she already knows that Zhenguo Gong is not dead, and she can rest assured that she is the queen." Zhou Zheng bowed again and said respectfully.

"This palace has seen the sixth lady of Zhenguo Gong, she is a heroine among women, who not only escorted Emperor Daxing into Beijing to succeed to the throne, but also made great achievements on the battlefield." Empress Sun immediately felt relieved, she knew that Lei Ting was Li Yuntian's assistant, and her prestige in the Xiaowu Army was higher than that of Wang Jian, and she would be at ease if Lei Ting protected the prince.

"The Queen Mother is now extremely suspicious of the Xiaowu Army, will she agree to the sixth lady of the Duke of Zhenguo to enter the imperial city?" Subsequently, Empress Sun's willow eyebrows suddenly frowned, and now the power of the capital is not in the hands of her, the queen, but in the hands of the Empress Dowager Zhang, and the transfer of troops naturally has to be agreed by the Empress Dowager Zhang.

At this moment, Empress Sun finally understood Emperor Xuande's intention to wish her not to tell Empress Dowager Zhang about Li Yuntian's death, and if Empress Dowager Zhang knew about this matter, then King Yue would also know.

Judging from the current situation, King Yue returned to Beijing with ill intentions, and he could not guarantee that this series of events that happened in the capital was related to him, and if he learned that Li Yuntian was not dead, he might have made some radical moves.

Maybe...... Perhaps King Yue will advance behind Empress Zhang to slander, so that Li Yuntian will be charged with a traitor, and in that case, Empress Sun will have no one to rely on in the capital.

"Empress, it is precisely because the Queen Mother is suspicious of the Xiaowu Army that she definitely hopes that the sixth lady of Zhenguo Gong will enter the imperial city now, so that the Xiaowu Army outside the city will not dare to act rashly." Facing Empress Sun's worries, Zhou Zheng smiled slightly and explained in an orderly manner.

After Lei Ting returns to Beijing, it will definitely attract the attention of all forces in the imperial court, and Empress Dowager Zhang obviously knows about this, compared to those nobles of the Xiaowu Army, Lei Ting is undoubtedly more dangerous.

Because Lei Ting is responsible for assisting Li Yuntian in handling the daily affairs of the Xiaowu Army, she has long been considered by the Xiaowu Army to be Li Yuntian's spokesperson, plus she loves nurses and soldiers, handles things fairly, and is Li Yuntian's sixth wife, so her prestige in the Xiaowu Army surpasses that of Wang Jian and other nobles.

If Lei Ting impulsively wants to avenge Li Yuntian, then I am afraid that a war will be launched and the Xiaowu Army of the Liaodong Military Region and the Northern Military Region will be transferred to participate in the battle, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

In the eyes of the outside world, as soon as Li Yuntian died, the Xiaowu army became a plate of scattered sand, because even Wang Jian could not command the whole army, and such a Xiaowu army was not terrible.

But Lei Ting is different, her arrival has caused the disheartened Xiaowu Army to regather around her, and the command system of the Xiaowu Army has officially resumed operation, which is a very terrible thing.

Just like the military cabinet has no right to mobilize the pro-army, the military cabinet also has no right to mobilize the Xiaowu army, and now the prince is too young to suppress the arrogant generals of the Xiaowu army, so the military power of the Xiaowu army has actually fallen into the hands of Lei Ting.

Therefore, if Lei Ting is allowed to lead 3,000 Xiaowu troops into the imperial city, it is invisibly equivalent to putting Lei Ting under house arrest in the imperial city and cutting off contact with the Xiaowu army outside the city, which is exactly what Empress Zhang wants to see.

In fact, Empress Dowager Zhang has long had the intention of controlling Lei Ting, but Lei Ting's identity is special, not only the military attache of Xiaowu Army but also Li Yuntian's sixth wife, she really can't act rashly, otherwise she may cause some big trouble, so she can only maintain the status quo.

If Empress Sun had a way to make Lei Ting enter the imperial city, then Empress Dowager Zhang would definitely be happy to see this happen, so she would not object.

After listening to Zhou Zheng's words, Empress Sun nodded thoughtfully, if Lei Ting could enter the palace, she would be at ease.
