Chapter 382: Zhu Yunwen
Ao Xiaofeng, as the number two person of Jinyiwei, was deeply respected by Jiang Xian, but at the critical moment, he actually defected! This not only made Jiang Xian suffer from Zhu Yunwen's criticism, but also made the entire Jinyiwei unable to raise his head, so whether it was Jinyiwei or Dongchang, they all tried their best to ask for his head! It can be said that as long as he gets out of Zhu Di's protection, he will be divided by five horses in minutes.
As a person who has been in Jinyiwei for most of his life, Ao Xiaofeng is also very aware of his current situation, so of course he knows better than anyone else how to save his life.
The reason why Zhu Di took such a big risk, stared at Zhu Yunwen's huge pressure, and also wanted to protect Ao Xiaofeng's life was because Ao Xiaofeng had the list of people placed by the imperial court around him, and these people on the list were like nails, dead nails on the tip of their hearts, and if they didn't pay attention to it, they would nail themselves to death.
"Lord Wang, we have to think of a trick, otherwise, if we drag it out any longer, it will be a big trouble!" Yao Guangxiao took a deep breath and said.
Zhu Di also knows in his heart that at the moment, he is ready for everything, and he only owes Dongfeng. You have to pry open Ao Xiaofeng's mouth.
"Torture is useless to him, this person is an expert in this area!" Zhu Di shook his head and said.
"You don't have to torture him to extract a confession, there will always be a way to make him open his mouth obediently!" Yao Guangxiao closed his eyes and pondered.
Zhu Yunwen in the Daming Palace, after learning that Zhu Di's army had attacked Wu Ruotang's army, was also shocked, in his opinion, this was the prelude to the emperor's uncle's impatience and wanting to do it.
"Your Highness, Lord Wu has been hit hard by this, will he collapse?" Fang Xiaoru said worriedly.
Qi Tai, the secretary of the military department, shook his head slightly and said: "No, Lord Wu has always been resolute and resolute, and he must not be defeated so easily!" ”
Jiang Xian also nodded slightly, he had come into contact with Wu Ruotang, and he had a good impression of him, he was a responsible young man.
"Your Highness, according to our intelligence, Lord Wu is in this battle. More than 10,000 infantry were lost, but the elite cavalry did not suffer much loss, so it did not hurt its vitality! took advantage of the situation to exterminate the forces of Fuzhou all the way! "Jiang Xian has placed a fine work next to Wu Ruotang, so he knows Wu Ruotang's actions quite well.
"Wu Xiaotang, I'm not worried. He was a man of good faith and wisdom, and I believed in him! Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly.
A group of civil and military officials, hearing Zhu Yunwen's evaluation of Wu Ruotang so high, it was called envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Jiang Qing. Did Ao Xiaofeng get rid of it? Zhu Yunwen suddenly thought of the traitor of the Jinyi Guard, and he was inexplicably unhappy.
"Well, Wechen is uniting with the masters of the East Factory to formulate an assassination plan, and this traitor must be killed!" Jiang Xian said cautiously.
Hearing that Ao Xiaofeng was not dead, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help frowning slightly, and Wang Zhen, the prince of Dongchang Factory, who was waiting for Zhu Yunwen on the side, heard Jiang Xian's words, and scolded his mother anxiously. It's obvious that your Jinyi Guard's people defected, why did you involve our family. Jiang Xian, you boast of being clear, how can you do things better than our family, who has no eggs?
"Since it is the same, Lone is waiting for good news!" Zhu Yunwen snorted coldly, and the vertebrae of the civil and military officials immediately felt cold in their backs.
"Your Highness, according to reliable information, King Yan has reached a truce with the Qing people, and for a long time to come, the Qing people should no longer pose a threat to Shanhaiguan!" Jiang Xian deliberately wanted to divert Zhu Yunwen's attention.
Sure enough, compared with Ao Xiaofeng, Zhu Yunwen still cares more about the Qing people outside the Guan.
"What? Why? What benefits did Uncle Huang give to the Qing people? "Attack Shanhaiguan. Enjoying the flowers and rivers of the Central Plains has always been the dream of the Qing people, and because of this, for so many years. The Qing people have never given up the attack on Shanhaiguan, and now they are willing to stop fighting, so Zhu Yunwen is not shocked.
"This hasn't been found out yet, but the Qing people have always been greedy, if King Yan doesn't spend blood, I'm afraid it will be difficult to satisfy the greed of the Qing people!" Jiang Xian was quite worried.
Zhu Di suddenly made peace with the Qing people at this time. The hearts of all of you are very clear. Zhu Yunwen closed his eyes tiredly.
"Your Highness, it's better for us to make plans for now!" Although Huang Zicheng is a nerd, he also has some vision and knows that Zhu Di is not an idle person.
"What is the good plan of the Zhongqing family, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" Zhu Yunwen waved his hand lazily.
"Your Highness, I have been peaceful for many years, except for the border army, most of the garrison army lacks effective training, especially the Imperial Forest Army that guards the capital, which has completely reduced to a showmanship. The minister begs His Highness to issue an imperial decree to train the army in case of accidents! Qi Tai, the secretary of the military department, suggested.
Zhu Yunwen pondered slightly, then nodded and said, "Accurate!" ”
"Your Highness, my Jinyi Guard came in to investigate that many local generals secretly colluded with various vassal kings and plotted against each other, and I implore Your Highness to order an investigation!" Jiang Xian also stepped forward and said.
The collusion of local generals with the vassal king was the most taboo thing in the central court.
"Is the evidence conclusive?" Zhu Yunwen said sharply.
"I have already grasped ironclad evidence that a group of generals are corrupt and pervert the law!" Jiang Xian was full of confidence.
"So what are you waiting for?" Zhu Yunwen said dissatisfied.
"Your Highness, no, you can't let Jinyiwei come forward in this matter, otherwise, people will be panicked!" Qi Tai stopped.
"Then according to the meaning of the Qing family, do you let these rebellious nonsense come?" Zhu Yunwen frowned.
"Your Highness, the local generals are hateful, but they are not the main threat, the real threat is those princes? If you don't clean them up, no matter how many generals you kill, it will be a symptom but not a cure! Qi Tai shook his head repeatedly.
Zhu Yunwen: "Then what do you mean?" ”
"Instead of focusing on investigating the case, let's think about how to tame the princes!" Qi Tai said unfathomably.
When Jiang Xian heard this, he couldn't help but nod again and again: "Lord Qi is high!" ”
"You will leave this matter to you, and come up with a charter as soon as possible! In addition, Wu Xiaotang's side will also try his best to support! Lone has great expectations for him! Zhu Yunwen waved his hand and asked everyone to retreat.
As soon as Jiang Xian and Qi Tai left the palace, they went to Qi Tai's official residence together to discuss how to complete the task that Zhu Yunwen did not know. Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng and other Qingliu are also busy gathering their protégés, and now that the court is in trouble, scholars also have the heart to serve the country! Although Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru are both corrupt Confucians, no one can deny their loyalty to Zhu Yunwen and the central imperial court! It's just a pity that they have no patriotic heart, but they can't unite the forces around them, so many times it will make Zhu Yunwen embarrassed and passive! (To be continued.) )
