The main one who made Huang Jin was really Xu Jie, this treacherous and cunning Xu Jie. Xu Jie's person is not simple at all, Lu Fang has long felt that this person has too many secrets. On the surface, it seems that Xu Jie is a submissive person, who has been a mute under Yan Song for nearly twenty years. When Yan Song was the first assistant of the cabinet, he was very strong, not only monopolizing power but also not allowing a little opposition. How many capable ministers and loyal people have gone into the wilderness or died just because they couldn't get used to it or didn't agree with Yan Song's father and son. As one of the accomplices back then, Lu Fang certainly knew Yan Song's methods and cruelty. But Xu Jie can persevere, not only can he stand firm quietly, but he can also not directly offend Yan Song's father and son. While consolidating his position, he gradually became the leader of a party and had the capital to fight against Yan Song. At that time, Lu Fang had an in-depth exchange with Yan Song on the grounds that Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houxi asked him to congratulate him on his birthday. Yan Song pointed out at that time who would succeed him in the future. It is not the combination of King Jing and Yan Shifan that they want to cultivate, but the combination of King Yu and Xu Jie. Yan Song unabashedly said that the successor in the future must be King Yu, and the first assistant of the cabinet is Xu Jie. Because King Yu not only has a grandson, but also Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Tan Lun and other capable ministers who are no less than himself and Xu Jie. The reason why these people can't take charge on their own is that they lack experience and experience. Once Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi's health fails, or Yan Song fails, Xu Jie will do it. For the sake of Xu Jie's own future, even if it is the assassination of the king, he will do it. Yan Song hit the nail on the head and said an astonishing point that Xu Jie was more eager for power than Yan Song. Yan Song asked Lu Fang to tell Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houxi that the future world could only be handed over to King Yu, otherwise Xu Jie would deal with everyone. Among them are Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, Yan Song, Yan Shifan, Lu Fang, King Jing and others. However, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi didn't believe it, thinking that Yan Song was alarmist, and Xu Jie didn't dare or didn't have the ability.

Now it seems that Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi was wrong, and Lu Fang also underestimated Xu Jie. Huang Jin confessed a secret, Chen Hong had been controlled by Xu Jie many years ago. Xu Jie is very peaceful on the surface, but in fact, he has been doing things in secret for a long time. Chen Hong is not only ruthless, but also short-sighted, in order to control the situation as soon as possible, so he did some out-of-the-ordinary things. It is already common knowledge that eunuchs serve as supervisors in the army and monitor generals with military power in their hands. But these supervisors are not only the people trusted by Emperor Zhu Houxi of Jiajing, but also the godsons of Lu Fang's cronies. If Chen Hong wants to control the situation, if he wants to be the eunuch in charge of the seal, he needs to have a good relationship with these people. Lu Fang doesn't love money, and he doesn't allow his subordinates to be greedy too much, so some people have complaints. Chen Hong used his identity as a big brother to win them over, and secretly acquiesced in their corruption, and said that Chen Hong helped them bear the burden. Gradually, these people were controlled and used by Chen Hong, and on the surface, they listened to Lu Fang, but in fact, they were biased towards Chen Hong. Chen Hong needed money to win over and control people, so he secretly sold the treasures in the palace for cash. After Xu Jie learned about this matter, he used this to discuss conditions with Chen Hong. Chen Hong thought that Xu Jie just wanted to share the profits, so not only was he not afraid, but he also cooperated with Xu Jie. When Xu Jie got enough evidence, he had a showdown with Chen Hong. For the sake of his own life, in order not to be known by Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, Chen Hong had no choice but to join forces with Xu Jie. Xu Jie also promised to help Chen Hong sit in the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal of the boss in the future, on the condition that he secretly tell Xu Jie, Emperor Jiajing's every move, and help Xu Jie sit on the throne of the first assistant of the cabinet.

Since Chen Hong and Xu Jie came together, Chen Hong helped Xu Jie install a lot of cronies in Da Nei. For example, there are their people in the Imperial Dining Room and Yuxi Palace, as well as these Taoist priests, and there are also their people. After Yan Song fell, Xu Jie's position was more stable, and Chen Hong was even more obsessed with Xu Jie. Through his relationship, Xu Jie met with powerful eunuchs such as Meng Chong and Ma Cheng, and had a certain verbal agreement. Xu Jie wanted to control Jinyiwei because there were too many information on hundreds of officials there. Once the Jinyi Guard is controlled, it is to seize the handle of most officials. However, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi handed over the power of Jinyiwei to Lü Fang and Huang Jin. Lu Fang is not an easy person to deal with, and his qualifications are even older than Xu Jie. When Xu Jiezhong was an official, Lu Fang was already a eunuch with a master of ceremonies, so Xu Jie's couldn't suppress Lu Fang. As for Huang Jin, he is Lu Fang's most trusted subordinate, and he is a big eunuch who is notoriously at odds with Chen Hong. In order to win over and control Huang Jin, Xu Jie asked Chen Hong to give him a copy of all the information about Huang Jin. Xu Jie finally found a breakthrough, Huang Jin's hometown is in Xu Jie, and it just so happens that Huang Jin is short of money and can't help his family. Xu Jie came forward as Huang Jin's friend and called a person with a new face to do things. not only helped Huang Jin's family complete the matter, but also tricked them into writing an IOU with a very vague amount. After being changed by someone with a heart, this IOU has become a huge IOU, the kind that Huang Jin can't pay back in his life. Xu Jie found Huang Jin and showed Huang Jin the IOU. Huang Jin was dumbfounded, once this IOU was known to outsiders, Huang Jin's family would not only die, but also be ruined. Xu Jie's condition was not excessive, saying that as long as Huang Jin showed him the secret files of the newly promoted officials in the Ministry last year, the IOU would be returned to Huang Jin. In order to get back this fateful IOU, Huang Jin agreed to Xu Jie. Huang Jin thought that he would be fooled for a loss, and he would definitely not be used by Xu Jie next time. I didn't expect Xu Jie to ask Huang Jin to do this, and when Huang Jin handed over Xu Jie's secret file, Chen Hong and others appeared. In order to survive, in order not to be caught by Chen Hong and others in front of Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi to receive death, Huang Jin had to write a letter of allegiance. promised to obey Xu Jie's command and supported His Royal Highness King Yu to ascend the throne. Xu Jie used this letter of allegiance to control Huang Jin and forced Huang Jin to do what Xu Jie wanted.

Half a month ago, Huang Jin was called by Xu Jie again, and Xu Jie assigned Huang Jin a task by himself, asking him to use the power of Jinyiwei to transfer Qin Tai back. Find a way to send Qin Tai into the palace and ask Qin Tai to do something, either Qin Tai was beaten or Qin Tai beat someone. In this way, Xu Jie, as the first assistant of the cabinet, can investigate Qin Tai's affairs and meddle in the Ouchi. When the time comes, find a reason to make a little trouble, take the opportunity to get rid of some people, and make it a false sense of manslaughter. The target is some people who are not used by Xu Jie, although there is no name of Lu Fang among them, Huang Jin always feels that Xu Jie wants to deal with Lu Fang.

Lu Fang didn't think so, he felt that Xu Jie would not be so stupid, in order to deal with himself, a eunuch who had nothing, would he really dare to do this? No, Xu Jie's careful planning is definitely not simple. A little Qin Tai is not worth it, Lu Fang is not worth it, and Xu Jie's target will not be them. Lu Fang stood up suddenly, he knew Xu Jie's ultimate goal. Xu Jie is so bold, the person he wants to deal with is Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi. Xu Jie wanted to use this opportunity to enter the palace and find an opportunity to kill or control Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi. Then, as the first assistant of his cabinet, he drafted an edict on behalf of Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi and passed the throne to King Yu. Once King Yu ascended the throne as the emperor, Xu Jie was not only a minister of the dragon, but also a meritorious minister, and not only his position would be more stable at that time, but he could also serve as an auxiliary minister as the emperor. At that time, Xu Jie had actually set up the emperor, controlling the civil and military officials with one hand and various departments in the inner hall with the other, even if he wanted to change the dynasty, it would not be a difficult thing.

As the personal eunuch of Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, and as Lu Fang, who has a deep emotional foundation with Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, he will never and will not allow this kind of thing to happen. Although Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houyu was no longer good to Lu Fang, Lu Fang's loyalty to Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houyu still did not change. You must not sit back and watch Xu Jie do such a rebellious thing. But now the situation is out of control, whether it is Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, Qin Tai, or Xu Jie, they are no longer well controlled. Once the incident breaks out, the country will be shaken, and Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi's life will be in danger.

Lu Fang changed his usual gentle and charitable appearance, and said to Huang Jin: "Huang Jin, I will believe you one last time. Listen, go to Yuxi Palace immediately and see Long Live Lord. Say what you said to me again. and told the old slave that for the sake of his old man, the old slave resisted the decree for the first and last time. The old slave wanted to stabilize Xu Jie, so that he would not do stupid things. As for the Long Live Lord's side, you tell the Long Live Lord a word. Don't come forward to see Qin Tai, and don't go against Qin Tai. If Qin Tai has any requests, he will agree to it first, and then decide later. Go quickly, remember to keep an eye on Chen Hong. It's best for you to look at Chen Hong and not leave the side of Long Live Lord. ”

Huang Jin left immediately, and kowtowed to Lu Fang again before leaving. He knew that Lu Fang went to see Xu Jie, and he might never see Lu Fang again. Huang Jin is really reluctant to be this godfather, and it can be seen from this incident that Lu Fang has no self in his heart, only Long Live Lord. Huang Jin would never dare to betray Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, so he admired and respected Lu Fang, who was also loyal.

Lu Fang stepped aside, changed his clothes, and washed his face. Before leaving, he called a middle-aged eunuch over, this eunuch was wearing the clothes of a low-level eunuch, and he was a eunuch with a low status. But he is definitely the last person Lu Fang can trust. Lu Fang handed him a note, asking him to hand it over to Qin Tai or Zhan Xiao before Qin Tai entered the Yuxi Palace. Why use him, the first is because this person can be trusted, the second is because this person has kung fu and can get close to Qin Tai or Zhan Xiaoxiao, and the third is because this dumb person will not tell the secret. But even Lu Fang didn't know that he used this person correctly. Because this person is Zhanxiao's relative, the only eunuch who can make Qin Tai and his wife believe with confidence. On the note, Lu Fang only wrote one sentence: "Don't be taken advantage of, just do it in moderation." ”

Things were so strange, when Qin Tai and his party were stopped by the arrogant Ma Cheng. gave Meng Chong and Chen Hong, as well as Huang Jin, a chance to persuade Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi. When Meng Chong rushed into the cultivation room, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi almost killed Meng Chong. When Chen Hong also broke in, the furious Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi calmed down. He knew something big had to happen, otherwise this weird phenomenon wouldn't have happened. When Huang Jin arrived, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi retreated from everyone, and even Meng Chong and Chen Hong were designated by Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi to stand in a distant place and were not allowed to leave. Huang Jin stammered and said everything, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi didn't have time to hit people and drop things, he was already stupid.

Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi deserved to be an emperor, and immediately sorted out his thoughts and made a series of decisions. First of all, he sent a personal eunuch to greet Qin Tai, no, it should be said that it was the first emperors of the past dynasties. Huang Jin saw that Ma Cheng was blocking Qin Tai, so Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi asked Ma Cheng not to be disrespectful to the first emperor. Secondly, Huang Jin and Chen Hong stayed by the side of Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, and they were not allowed to leave without the permission of Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, and they were not allowed to have any contact with the outside world. Meng Chong took Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi to greet the first emperor and listen to Qin Tai's lessons. Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi avoided Qin Tai and others on the grounds that he had meditated for many days and did not dare to see his ancestors without bathing and purifying. He showed Meng Chong in person, agreed to all of Qin Tai's requests on his behalf, and asked Qin Tai to send the first emperor back to the palace. And promised that it would never target Qin Tai and others, and reward everyone.

At this time, Lu Fang, who was supposed to be locked up in Ouchi, appeared in the duty room of the Xiyuan cabinet. All the ministers were kicked out of the duty room by Lu Fang, and there were only two old men in the room, Lu Fang and Xu Jie, who were more than one hundred and thirty-five years old together. Neither of them spoke, sitting facing each other, you staring at me, I staring at you. No one needs to talk nonsense, no one needs to explain anything. Everyone knows what they know, and they know what each other means. Lu Fang's purpose was to drag Xu Jie, but Xu Jie's goal was to see a clue from Lu Fang. The two of them were just consuming, no one spoke, just waiting for the results to come outside.
