Chapter 626 There is no room for error
"You want me to go to the palace to find the king?"
Wei Hong's eyes widened.
Why? She is already embarrassed enough today, and she will be embarrassed by the king in the palace tomorrow? So what has become of her? And at this time, Jue Wangfu is being eyed by people, does she enter the palace to enjoy people's eyes?
But when she caught a glimpse of the fierce light in Zhu Changjue's eyes, she still suppressed her dissatisfaction.
"But the king will not see me."
"Then let her have to see. To block, to intercept, to wait, to find a way. ”
"......"
"She's obviously hiding something from you, a fool!" Zhu Changjue's voice is rising. "Be sober and work hard, if you don't want you and your Wei family to die inexplicably, hurry up and use your brain!"
After Zhu Changjue took two deep breaths, he patiently pointed out Wei Hong again, and when he walked out of her yard, it was already the beginning of the lights.
During this period, the henchman he arranged to go out early in the morning to find out the news came back, and the news he brought was still depressing:
According to the eyeliner they planted at the city gate, Lord Yu Shi Tang of the Metropolitan Procuratorate had gone out of the house on the grounds that he had taken leave and returned to his hometown for funeral. Lord Tang's official position is not low, his official duties are not light, and if he can work and run in person, this funeral must be a close relative or elder. But Lord Tang only brought more than a dozen subordinates this time, not even his wife and children. Isn't that a contradiction?
In addition, in the past three days, there have indeed been guards leaving Beijing from the south city gate. The first group was twenty people, who had gone out two days earlier. The second group of 100 people set out this morning.
The orders for the two groups of people to leave the city were all approved by Li Chun's subordinates.
The content of the mission is confidential, but looking at the preparation and packing, it is clear that it is going to travel far. Recently, it is peaceful, to the south, where can you go?
Zhu Changjue took a deep breath.
"Li Chun's news, can you find out?"
"Li Chun is sick this morning."
Zhu Changjue's hand shook, and a glass of wine turned over to the table.
"It is said that he is infected with the wind and cold, and he will have to recuperate in the house in the short term. Jingwei's affairs were also arranged to the deputy general,"
"You repeat, when did the more than 100 people who left the city at the south gate leave?"
"This morning."
"Li Chun also died this morning?"
"Exactly. The subordinates also doubted whether Li Chun had gone south among the more than 100 people. ”
"Li Chun is sick, did the emperor say anything? Can you send medicine and supplements? Did Father-in-law Yu go to the General's Mansion? ”
"I haven't heard anything like that."
Zhu Changjue let out a long sigh.
Li Chun is his father's confidant. If he is sick, the most urgent person should be his father, how can he ignore it. Li Chun was fine the day before yesterday, how could he suddenly get sick? So his speculation is about to come true.
Li Chun didn't complain about his illness, he went south to carry out a mission, and his father obviously knew about it. The reason for pulling a cover is obviously to be caught off guard. The target of that blow is naturally himself.
Plus the Tang Imperial History...... and the secret report from Jiangnan is that the mountain rain is coming!
Zhu Changjue unconsciously sighed again. In this way, Wei Hong has to enter the palace, and he must inquire about him to come back.
The subordinate buried his head a little bit, and the hand under his sleeve trembled slightly. He has followed his master for more than ten years, and when his master is angry, he always gets angry and rarely sighs. At the moment, on the contrary, although there is no loss of control on the face, the anxiety, crampedness, uneasiness, and even a little despair in the disappointment are becoming more and more obvious......
"Li Chun ...... this morning I just left this morning, so it's still too late! Zhu Changjue muttered.
An hour later, the pigeon flew out of the Jue Palace.
Zhu Changjue raised his eyes and waited for three quarters of an hour, but he never waited for a signal from the sky to respond. This shows that the guards on standby outside the house did not receive the information that the carrier pigeons were taken out.
Sure enough, after waiting for a long time, the carrier pigeon did not fly back.
He took a deep breath.
Thanks to the fact that he used a code, even if the carrier pigeon was caught, it would be impossible to decipher.
Soon, within two hours, four carrier pigeons flew out successively, and after failing again and again, fortunately, the fourth carrier pigeon succeeded, and after receiving the familiar signal, Zhu Changjue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But his relief only existed for a moment, and a heart was lifted again.
That's bad news again. This shows that the guards outside the house are getting tighter and tighter. It's so hard to even send a letter.
After a sleepless night, the first message after dawn was still bad news: there were obviously more guards outside the mansion, and there were at least thirty or fifty people at the moment. As for those who are secretly staring at King Jue's Mansion, I am afraid that the number will not be less.
I don't know if the sun is obscured by the dark clouds in the sky, which always makes people feel that the entire Juewang Mansion has an abnormal and breathless depression.
"Can you still get out?" Zhu Changjue has been sitting in the garden all night.
"Today's investigation is obviously tight, but my subordinates are sure."
"Chaotang and Shuntianfu continue to stare."
"Yes."
Zhu Changjue's closed eyes opened slightly, as if he had made up his mind.
"That backup plan, it's time to start preparing." He thought that the plan would not be used. He wished that solution didn't need to be used......
But the situation is clearly different now.
The content of the second secret report from Jiangnan is:
Yangzhou's salt transportation wharf and the salt fields of the Lianghuai salt field have recently seen a large number of strangers.
Whether they are experts in salt transportation or not, they can tell at a glance.
Some of these strangers are shrewd but a little deliberately restrained, but they still can't hide their extraordinary nobility. There are more, they are strong and powerful, and they are strong, which makes people wonder whether they are practicing their families. These people were obviously people who had nothing to do with the salt industry, and suddenly a large number of people appeared in Yangzhou and the Lianghuai salt area, which immediately attracted attention.
Zhu Changjue's people asked the salt merchant to test this group of people, and found that many of them had a Beijing-style accent. On the surface, they said that they wanted to find a deal in the salt area, but these people were looking for more detailed and in-depth things. On several occasions, the targets of their movements were a few salt merchants who had dealings with Zhu Changjue......
Salt is the foundation of people's livelihood, so everything involved in salt transportation makes money. Therefore, Zhu Changjue has been secretly involved over the years. The light and the dark, the public and the private. Most of his money came from the salt industry and his control of the river.
And among them, there are naturally many things and many people who are unsightly.
Moreover, they also found a raw face in Yangzhou, who was the chief of the guard under Kang Anbo.
How does Zhu Changjue not panic? Kang Anbo is in charge of the coast, and he has no ability, no obligation and no authority to involve salt affairs.
Combined with today's eccentricity, he had to give birth to a conjecture: Kang Anbo's intervention was because of Zhu Changzhe's request, and Zhu Changzhe and Prince Cheng Ziyu had already cooperated. So Kang Amber was preemptively searching for evidence.
Or what's worse, the emperor couldn't trust Yangzhou's salt patrol Yushi and others, so he asked Kang Anbo to stretch out his hand, just to control the situation and wait...... The arrival of a new patrol of the Imperial History.
If that's the case, the Tang Yushi who was full of suspicions and suddenly went to the funeral is very likely to be the new inspection Yushi.
At this time when the Jue King's Mansion was stormy, these actions were all aimed at him!
As long as Zhu Changjue thought deeply, the cold sweat on his back began to bubble out.
Although his actions are very hidden, although his methods are very clean, and although almost all the traces of what he has done have been wiped clean, after he passed through the Xiong family, he began to be afraid that there would be something missing!
If the other party didn't catch the traces and clues, how could he dare to mobilize the imperial history and guards on a large scale, how could he dare to make such a bold move, and how could he say that he could move his father and the emperor to nod?
He panicked.
In addition, the secret report concludes with another thing that makes him even more uncomfortable.
Someone saw Zhu Changzhe appear in Zhenjiang.
Zhu Changzhe's dam has entered the third stage, what is he going to do in Zhenjiang if he doesn't guard the dam?
Zhenjiang, calm and calm, Zhenjiang, which has nothing to do recently, what is worth going to for him? What could be more important to him than a dam?
Yes, of course there is, like, to yourself, the complete kind!
Zhenjiang, Zhenjiang, Zhu Changjue gritted his teeth!
Zhu Changzhe went to Zhenjiang because it was the place where the emperor was assassinated during his southern tour.
Obviously, Zhu Changzhe suspected himself, and now he began to investigate.
That incident was indeed done by Zhu Changjue. But he didn't really intend to assassinate, otherwise how could he be so thrilling? At that time, he only wanted more than a dozen, and wanted to frame the prince who was the most motivated to sit in the battle, and by the way, he pulled the initiator of the Southern Tour, Lao Si, and the planner Lao Wu, into the water.
He did it successfully. He left no traces, and the crown prince and the fifth child were also suppressed.
It stands to reason that he couldn't find evidence against him at that time, and now he doesn't think that the other party has the ability to turn it out, but the recent situation is very unfavorable to him, what if Zhu Changzhe is despicable and shameless to create some charges and evidence for himself? How to respond if you are in the capital?
Especially when the father is suspicious, when the king and the minister die, what crime do you want?
And last night, he received another secret letter that had only been delivered after paying compensation to two dead soldiers.
said: Several important informants and chess pieces in his dense Jiangnan have been monitored. In particular, the dark chess of Feng Yuan, the political secretary of Jiangning, is cherished by him, and it took five or six years to succeed and lay it out! It is the most important link in many of his networks.
Once someone finds a breakthrough, then many of his ways will be directly cut off, and the success will fall short. So for Zhu Changjue, Feng Yuan cannot afford to lose.
But right now, Feng Yuan is being watched.
How can Zhu Changjue still deal with it calmly?
Combined with the letter given by Wei Zhixian, and the current situation in Beijing that is becoming more and more critical for him day by day, he can't sit still, he really can't sit still!
He had already realized that the charges against him were becoming more and more concentrated day by day, and they were getting worse day by day, and it was clear that there was a plan and a pattern, and it seemed that they were gradually and regularly aggravating the charges against him.
His heart is already very messed, and if he continues like this, will he soon be charged with crimes: controlling the river, smuggling salt transportation, selling illicit salt, and suspected of assassination?
If that is the case, how can he afford it? Those people will surely die in the well.
He is naturally not afraid of ordinary murder and arson, and the charges of lax imperial liness, but river and salt transportation involves the foundation of the country, and the assassination of the royal family is like a rebellion.
Not only will he lose everything, but he and many others will not be able to save their lives.
He took another deep breath.
He is afraid, this is the reason why the Wang family wants to break away from the Wei family in life and death. Only in this way can the cause and effect be rounded!
At this moment, he is tied up and can't do it, and if he continues like this, his news will lag even further. By that time, it was not known how he had died.
He couldn't sit still, he couldn't wait. The situation became more and more urgent, and he didn't have time to wait for Jiang Nan to come back. This was the reason why he had to let Wei Hong confirm the truth from Wang.
He gritted his back molars, hated only hate, he had no military power. Whether it is the military power in Beijing or the external military power, his father is too bitten to death, otherwise, he would have sat in that position a long time ago.
But even so, sitting still and being caught has never been his style.
If all this is true, then he would rather break the boat! ……
He walked to Wei Hong's courtyard, and after a few words, he stretched out his fist and punched out.
Wei Hong, who was frowning sadly, heard the wind in front of him, and as soon as he raised his head, he was punched in the right cheek.
Subsequently, the left side of the face also ushered in a loud backhand slap, which directly knocked her to the ground.
She was stunned.
The tooth hit the tongue and a mouthful of blood came out. The right cheek was even stronger by the punch, which directly made her lose two teeth.
"Lord, you ......"
Zhu Changjue ignored her, but just came up and punched and kicked her again.
Wei Hong cried and howled at the same time, shouting hysterically and asking where he had done wrong, while crawling around to hide.
It wasn't until Wei Hong's entire face was blue and red, and even the arms around his neck were bruised and purple, that Zhu Changjue gave up.
He slowly squatted in front of Wei Hong and stroked her hair: "Don't blame this king, it's all forced to be helpless." I'm afraid that only in this way can you enter the palace to find the king. Only then will you be able to find the king and speak. Do you remember what this king taught you last night? ”
Wei Hong cried and nodded.
"Good. Then you can go out with this face and this body. ”
Wei Hong raised his eyes to look at himself in the mirror, startled.
"Go ahead. After this is over, you will be the new concubine of this king, and this king will also give you a child! Zhu Changjue swept her stomach as if she had nothing......
After more than ten breaths, Wei Hong rushed out of the courtyard crying.
At the gate of the courtyard, two guards sent by the emperor in the Jue Palace's palace rushed over after hearing the news.
Wei Hong cried.
"Brother Guard, I'm going to enter the palace, King Jue is crazy, I ask the Queen Mother to call the shots for me. Otherwise, I will die in the Jue Palace. Ask the two big brothers to help me. ”
The two guards looked at each other and brought her to the chief of the guard.
Since Wei Hong is the queen mother's decision to the king of Jue, it makes sense for her to find the queen mother to be the master now.
In this way, Wei Hong successfully left the Juewang Mansion. After waiting for a quarter of an hour at the palace gate, amid the pointing and discussion of the palace people all the way, he was finally summoned to the palace.
It's just that she doesn't know that in Cining Palace, Wang and Cheng Ziyu have been waiting for her for a long time. Even if Zhu Changjue didn't beat her violently, they were ready to get her into the palace.
This morning, Ji Xiang Ruyi officially pointed out that the concubine pushed the king and blamed Wei Hong. The Queen Mother is angry. Originally, Wei Hong was also going to be summoned. ……
Wang Zheng kissed the child with a look of love.
"Zhu Changjue is really enough, he can think of anything. But we're worried too much,"
"yes. He's always had a good idea. "Looking at the child who was still less than a little arm long, Cheng Ziyu didn't dare to step forward and tease." For him, I'd rather think of a backup move every step of the way. Don't dare to take it lightly. Soon, the scene is coming to an end soon. ”
……
