Chapter 57: The Storm in the Capital

In the blink of an eye, a full ten days have passed.

In the capital, the matter of being seized by the six doors because of the Shenhou Mansion slowly calmed down after a period of uproar, and the fake copper coins that had been circulating before were also recovered by the imperial court at a discounted price because they had no source, as if they had been restored to peace.

It's just that under the seemingly calm water, there are countless undercurrents surging, and the sky in the capital has never been calm.

In the palace in the north of the city, a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe was a little irritable in the study, and if you look closely, these broken things are all some expensive porcelain, red sandalwood pen holders and other good things, which can be used for this kind of item, and wearing a dragon robe, there is no doubt that there is no doubt that there is no doubt that the saint is today.

"Chachacha, I have already asked the Criminal Department to investigate the case of the governor of Zhezhou, but look at what they have done? They all tried to persuade me to focus on the people, but if I didn't find out the case of the governor of Zhejiang, how could I be in the mood to talk about caring for the people? ”

Next to the emperor, an elderly eunuch lowered his eyebrows and said: "The official family, Yan Shangshu of the Criminal Department is so built, presumably he also has a last resort, and besides, the world is all official's, Yan Shangshu is also so to let the official family be more relaxed, less angry, and don't hurt the dragon body." ”

Obviously, the old eunuch's method of comforting the donkey quickly quieted the irascible emperor, although there was still anger between his eyebrows, but after all, it looked much better. The old eunuch said a few more words when he saw the opportunity, mentioning that there were a few more kinds of grass skiing in the back garden, which lady had been looking good recently, and so on. Soon the emperor was coaxed around and drove into the imperial garden.

Wait until the emperor leaves. A little eunuch who had been staying outside the imperial study immediately hurriedly followed some secret routes in the palace. went straight out of the palace.

It didn't take long for the latest news to come out of the mouth of the little eunuch, and he entered Cai Xiang's mansion, after learning that the emperor was angry and threw things, Cai Xiang, who had an official face, snorted with disdain, obviously not taking the emperor's reaction in his eyes at all, and opposite Cai Xiang, a middle-aged man in a red robe was leisurely drinking the newly shipped tribute tea from the south.

This tea. It is exclusively for the use of the royal family, even if it is a minister, it can only be obtained in the form of a reward, which can be described as an inch of gold, but here in Cai Xiang, this kind of tea is weighed in catties, and it is more than two digits, which can be described as very amazing.

The man in the red robe glanced at Cai Xiang, blew on the floating tea leaves in the cup, and said with a smile: "What, isn't Lord Cai worried about this matter?" ”

Cai Xiang had a look of respect. replied: "An Ye, don't make fun of the old minister, everyone knows that this emperor is just an empty shelf, let alone a broken bottle." Even if he demolishes the city gate tower, it will not have any impact on our cooperation. ”

This man in red robes is the mastermind behind the seizure of the Shenhou Mansion - An Shigeng!

Just like the speculation of everyone in the Shenhou Mansion. Cai Xiang had already been involved with An Shigeng, and it was beyond the expectations of most people. It's not that An Shigeng hugged Cai Xiang's thigh, the fact is the opposite. It was Cai Xiang who hugged An Shigeng's thigh!

If this thing spreads, it will be no less than a magnitude 9 earthquake. What does this mean? It means that most of the rights of the imperial court have fallen into the hands of An Shigeng and the An family in disguise!

Even if it's in Cai Xiang's lewdness. Under the authority, there are still many honest ministers, who oppose Cai Xiang openly and secretly, but these guys are either secretly threatened by Cai Xiang, or simply try to pull down the power directly, just like the governor of Zhejiang not long ago, this old minister was made a bad move by Cai Xiang, directly contacted the official position, and was sent to Hainan.

It's a long way to go, and I don't know if the old bones of the governor of Zhejiang can hold up there, maybe he will die halfway through. It's just that under Cai Xiang's design, no one dares to overturn the case on this matter, even if the emperor personally ordered the criminal department to strictly investigate the case, the people in the criminal department were hindered by Cai Xiang, and they still dragged it out again and again.

At this moment, when An Shigeng and Cai Xiang were drinking tea leisurely here and talking about profit sharing, there were new changes in the Zuiyue Building in the capital.

"Good morning, sir."

"Early."

The guests who entered the door greeted the person behind the counter with a familiar way, it was Zhuge Zhengme. This half-old man changed his dress, and looked no different from the big shopkeepers in those inns and money houses, and he was proficient in settling accounts and collecting accounts one by one, which was convincing.

Zhuge Zheng said hello to the other party with a smile, and it didn't seem to be too affected.

After the Shenhou Mansion was forced to be temporarily disbanded, Zhuge Zheng and I were ruthless, and the big wolf temporarily lived in the Zuiyue Building and became buddies. Anyway, on weekdays, the big wolf and others often come here to help, so they are completely familiar with the way and return to their old business, but there is nothing inappropriate. As for wages, it is easier to say, almost all the problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation have been solved.

After Zhuge Zheng and I came here, he took the place of Jiao Niang, stood behind the counter and became the shopkeeper, and he knew everything, but there was no chaos, but seeing that it had been almost half a month, the palace about Zhuge Zheng's will has not come down, and Zhuge Zheng and I have to wait here.

In fact, it is not that the emperor does not want to recall him, but the emperor knows very well that in this time of internal and external troubles, Zhuge Zheng and I are one of the few people he can trust. The reason why Zhuge Zheng and I left the palace and secretly established the Shenhou Mansion was that the emperor noticed the changes in the court and arranged a secret chess in advance.

First of all, the emperor has great trust in Zhuge Zheng, and it is not easy to maintain the relationship for so many years until now, and the reason why the Shenhou Mansion is established is that I hope that Zhuge Zheng and I can gather a lot of righteous people in the rivers and lakes, first-class masters, so that in the event of an accident, we can ensure the safety of him, the emperor, and make his position more stable.

After following the emperor for so many years, figuring out the king's heart is a necessary skill, and Zhuge Zheng also knows the emperor's intentions very well. Naturally, he gave up the title of the first guard in the capital, as well as the rich Yulu, turned around and left the palace and established the Shenhou Mansion.

The reason why I chose Zhang Yang and others is naturally because of their ability and strength, as well as their potential, and secondly, because everyone's mental skills are satisfactory to Zhuge Zheng and me. And although the cold-blooded move betrayed the Shenhou Mansion and made Zhuge Zheng and me a little disappointed, it also proved from the side that cold-blooded will not change camps casually, so he did his best for the six doors, while the other four gods of the six doors repeatedly rejected the cold-blooded, one day, the cold-blooded will be forced to leave the six doors, and at that time it is a good opportunity for Zhuge Zheng and me to win over the cold-blooded.

"If he doesn't let him realize his situation, how can he willingly join the Shenhou Mansion? If you don't let you collide and vent the resentment in your heart, how can the Shenhou Mansion become a monolith? Iron hands, cold-blooded, chasing life, publicity, I hope you don't let me down! ”

Zhuge Zheng I am cold-blooded, but it is a tactic to capture the old and indulge, and chasing life and Zhang Yang are different from cold-blooded, chasing life itself is a master who has been famous for a long time, and the mental skill is known by people at a check, and Zhang Yang also knows the roots, plus this Zhuge Zheng I recommend, I owe Zhuge Zheng me such a big favor, Zhuge Zheng I am not worried about Zhang Yang being ungrateful, and the possibility of turning around and abandoning everyone is possible.

As for ruthlessness, Zhuge Zheng and I are even less worried, whether it is the ruthless kindness of his adoption since childhood, or the relationship between master and father, ruthlessness is impossible to betray him. Of course, this is on the premise that Ruthless doesn't know what happened more than ten years ago, once the truth of that year is revealed, I'm afraid that there will be an irreparable rift in the relationship between Ruthless and Zhuge Zheng.

Therefore, in Zhuge Zheng's opinion, it is a good thing that the Shenhou Mansion is temporarily sealed this time, or the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, which can reintegrate the relationship between everyone and increase the cohesion of the people in the Shenhou Mansion.

In the Drunken Moon Building, Zhuge Zheng and I spend most of my time as before, I can't see any scheming and strategizing temperament, and I am completely the role of a big shopkeeper. Even if there are six doors of catchers coming here to eat, there is no intention of arguing with them at all.

Ten days after such a situation, the situation has finally changed somewhat.

The first is the arrival of Iron Hand, who stayed in the blacksmith shop he bought for a few days, but Iron Hand couldn't hold back a little and ran to the Drunken Moon Building to find someone to drink and chat. In fact, Tieshou has not been completely idle during this time, and has been secretly collecting intelligence, and at this moment she finally discovered some horses.

As Zhang Yang said last time, Tie Shou investigated a large number of information on the rivers and lakes, and finally found out the information about the divine weapons of the Western Regions, which was not surprisingly consistent with the information provided by Zhang Yang. And in this way, it can be determined that the one who attacked the people of the Six Gates that day was the divine soldier who was made by people.

And the short-lived mysterious person, the most suspicious is An Shigeng, although I don't know how An Shigeng's martial arts are, but the iron hand has found out, to make zuò divine soldiers, you don't need to make zuò how powerful the person himself is, as long as he knows how to make zuò, and there is a sufficient amount of mysterious medicinal materials, that is, the life-killing orchid, you can make a large number of divine soldiers in batches!
