Chapter 20 ; Take Xu Xianchun at night (ask for recommendation votes)
"Big brother, how do you know about this?" Shen Lian asked on the side.
"It was Zhou Jianwen who told me." Lu Jianxing said.
"Big brother, did you give Zhou Jianwen the rest of the silver taels?" Shen Lian asked on the side.
Zhou Jianwen is the top boss of the three, Zhou Baihu.
Lu Jianxing didn't speak when he heard this, but the expression on his face was more or less embarrassed, obviously Shen Lian guessed well.
Shen Lian saw Lu Jianxing's expression and knew that he had not guessed wrong, and wanted to say something, but in the end he still didn't say anything.
The three of them are young, and they don't have ten taels a year, he knows that Lu Jianxing has always wanted to be promoted to 100 households, because Lu Jianxing's father is 100 households, but he doesn't have enough money to pay filial piety, so where can he be promoted again.
In this regard, Shen Lian didn't know what to say except for being silent.
"Big brother, tell me, what did that guy tell you?" Shen Lian didn't dispute too much about that matter, but asked directly.
"He said that in the early days of the Dynasty today, Qian Jiazheng, a tribute of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Bureau, impeached Wei Zhongxian for ten crimes in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, if nothing else, Wei Zhongxian, I'm afraid it's over." Lu Jianxing didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was already very clear, Emperor Chongzhen wanted Wei Zhongxian to die, and he wanted to sweep away the eunuchs.
And to sweep away the eunuchs, they will inevitably rely on the power of their Jinyiwei, after all, there is no knife sharper than the knife of Jinyiwei.
Whether Wei Zhongxian dies or not doesn't matter to the three of them, but if they can make meritorious contributions, it must be a great achievement, in this case, it is not impossible for Lu Jianxing to want to be promoted to a hundred households, after all, he has qualifications, and the poor is just merit.
At this moment, a sound of footsteps came from outside the door, although there was still some distance, but with Xu Fan's strength, he had already perceived that someone was coming towards them.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a dense sound of footsteps to reach the ears of the three of them.
"Someone's coming?" Shen Lian said loudly.
"Lu Jianxing." As soon as Shen Lian's words fell, a slightly arrogant voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
"It's Zhou Jianwen, that guy is here." After speaking, Lu Jianxing walked out, the boss came to the door, it was naturally impossible for him not to greet him, and when the time came, the other party said that he was not polite, and secretly gave him small shoes, and he was a hundred households, and it was estimated that he would not have a chance in this life.
Shen Lian and Xu Fan glanced at each other, but they could only follow helplessly.
Outside the door, a fat man walked in with a group of brocade guards in flying fish suits, it was the top boss of the three, Zhou Jianwen, and Zhou Baihu. (PS; Because the name of their boss is not mentioned in the original book, the name was chosen by Lao Xia himself, don't care).
"Lord Baihu, why are you here?" In front of Zhou Jianwen, Lu Jianxing bowed and bowed.
And Xu Fan and Shen Lian stood behind Lu Jianxing, but they didn't move.
Although Zhou Jianwen didn't like this, he didn't say anything, he knew the strength of the three brothers very well.
"What, you're not welcome to me?"
"That's not true, my lords can come to my humble house, and my subordinates can't ask for it."
"Okay, okay, Lu Jianxing, you said that those are useless, I will bring you good news this time."
"Oh, I wonder if you have any good news for my three brothers?"
Zhou Jianwen's fat face smiled slightly; "There is a big event in the court, the three of you are ready tonight, and the people from the yamen will come to you at that time."
When Lu Jianxing heard this, he nodded hurriedly; "Please rest assured, my three brothers are at any time, and you can inform me at any time if there is anything."
"Okay, Lu Jianxing, I like you like this, if this matter is done well, it will not be difficult for you to make up for the lack of hundreds of households." Zhou Jianwen smiled slightly.
Then after saying some useless nonsense, he took the people away.
When Zhou Jianwen left, the expressions on the faces of the three were different.
However, Shen Lian glanced at Xu Fan suspiciously, it stands to reason that at this time, Xu Fan would give Zhou Jianwen's back a saliva.
But he didn't think much about it, he just felt that maybe Xu Fan was a little excited when he heard that he could make meritorious contributions.
And Lu Jianxing had a sad face, and he didn't have to think about it to know that when Zhou Jianwen came to them, he must have encountered something difficult to do.
"Second brother and third brother, you have also heard it, prepare well, tonight, this Beijing city is afraid that it will be uneasy."
……………………。
Night, quietly descending. Today's Beijing city is exceptionally quiet, as if the people of the city lord already know that something big is happening in the court.
There was no one in sight on the street, but the bright room told the others that they had not yet slept.
On the streets, there was basically no one to be seen, except for the patrolling soldiers, and basically no one was visible.
In the darkness, a group of people are quickly shuttling through the alleys with the help of the darkness.
"Master Ma, what you say about the weather can change, if you can eat a bowl of hot noodles at this time, it would be great."
"You kid still want to eat a bowl of hot noodles?" On the street, two soldiers holding lanterns of the Five Cities Terracotta Division were walking on the street, they were soldiers in charge of the night watch.
"When it passed, those who dared to walk around the streets, except for those who fought on the watch, there were only two kinds of people, one was us, who poured blood mold and won the lottery for this city patrol." Among the two, the older middle-aged man said to the young man on the side.
Obviously, the young man was supposed to be a recruit who didn't know anything.
"What about Master Ma, what about another kind of person?"
"There is another kind of people....." The middle-aged man's face sank, because in the moment just now, he heard something strange in the alley beside him.
"Who, come out...."The man scolded, making himself look tall and brave, but soon his face changed.
When the lantern shone through, the first thing he saw was a flying fish suit.
"Jin Yiwei?"
Qiang !!。
There was a sound of metal colliding, and the opponent's embroidered spring knife directly collided with his machete.
He knew that if he didn't want to die, he had to run away.
"It's Jinyiwei, hurry up and run." The man's face changed, he didn't ask for the lantern in his hand, and he ran away directly.
And the recruit Danzi, although he looked confused, still ran away with him.
The person in the alley was none other than Shen Lian, who came with the Jinyi Guard.
As for Xu Fan and Lu Jianxing, they are leading people on the other side.
Don't look at the three officials, but because of their good strength, they are quite respected in Jinyiwei, and there are people under them who only obey the orders of the three of their brothers.
And the task of the three of them this time is to arrest the eunuch Xu Xianchun, and they got reliable information that that guy is now hiding in the mansion of Master Chen, the secretary of the sect.
As Jinyiwei, their rights at this moment are completely displayed, even if the other party is the Jiaofang Division, they can also directly break into the mansion and arrest them, which is why Jinyiwei is feared.
