Chapter 366: Helplessness in Failure
"The subordinates took more than a dozen people to attack at the same time, in order to prevent someone from ventilating the news, but somehow, two people were not at home, and they couldn't find them after searching around. The subordinates personally squatted there for two days, but still no one came back", Zhixing's voice trembled a little, "I'm afraid it's ...... I'm afraid that someone got the news and let them escape. The subordinates did not dare to delay, so they had to report immediately.
At this time, several fast horses had galloped to the outside of Sucheng City, and were about to go straight to Kyoto Castle from the fields on the side......
The person at the head is a white-faced scholar with delicate eyebrows, and several people behind him are older, and their appearance is a little feminine, although their complexion is not as white as that of the person who has not yet been headed, but it seems that their face is cleaner than this white-faced scholar, and there is no stubble on their faces all the way.
"My lord, it is better for us to enter the city just in time for the opening of the city gate tomorrow morning, so as not to be troubled. It's still early, why don't we hurry a little slower? A person behind him spoke, and his voice was very high-pitched.
Du Fengsheng stopped his horse, looked at the moon that had just arrived in the middle of the sky, and turned around and said: "Lord Liu is very right, it is useless to hurry up now, and if the city gate is not opened when you turn around, it will inevitably be alarmed." It's better to walk slowly, and when the city gate is opened tomorrow morning, then rush back to Weiyang Palace to resume your life. ”
Behind him was the internal supervisor of the Dust Purification Division who came out with him to do errands. Although Du Fengsheng didn't have a good impression of these eunuchs, he also knew that these fathers-in-law of the Pure Dust Division had undergone purgatory-like training since childhood, so he had a lot of respect for these people themselves.
It's just that I still disagree with the existence of the Dust Purification Division. All dynasties and dynasties have had such yamen that directly serve the emperor, but according to the training of the sage, there should be no such place around the master.
He has always thought that the current saint is a master, but he disagrees with the place of the Pure Dust Division. But being upright and outspoken does not mean that there is no sense of proportion. Suggesting that the emperor ban the Pure Dust Division, he can't do such things that violate Long Wei.
For those who speak for officials, they must have the dignity of the emperor to continue to serve the court, continue to dare to speak out about the dirty things in the court, and dare to impeach those unscrupulous colleagues. Because of a clean dust division, giving up the opportunity to expose many unscrupulous officials in the DPRK and China really outweighs the loss.
A few fast horses, at this time, leisurely down, slowly walking in the direction of Kyoto City.
In the prince's mansion, the prince was like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth in the house very quickly. For a long time, I really couldn't think of a way to deal with it. When one turned around, he saw Weaver still kneeling with his sword raised, waiting for his punishment. Pointing at the weaving star fiercely, he scolded angrily in a low voice: "You have ruined the big thing of this palace!" ”
Those two people must have fled. And Weaving Star had foolishly been there for two days, and if they had entered Kyoto City, they would have arrived by now.
"You ......," the prince said hatefully, "You have always done things safely, and this palace trusts you so much, but you mistook this palace's affairs at such a critical moment!" How to be worthy of the weight that this palace has for you? Ling Chi, you are not an exaggeration! ”
Hearing the prince say that he wanted to Ling Chi her, Zhi Xing didn't even blink his eyes, but just said respectfully: "The subordinates are guilty, let the prince punish them." ”
"This palace has no time to punish you!" The prince flicked his sleeves hard, turned around and continued pacing. After pacing two steps, he turned around and said hatefully: "Seeing that there is no one, you should catch up quickly, instead of waiting there and let them run!" How can it be so stupid? They must have come to Kyoto City, stop them on the way back to Beijing, and if they do it, will they be gone? It's good now, after such a long delay, where to find them? Maybe they're already in King Chen's Mansion now! ”
The prince's scolding, Zhixing couldn't listen to it at all. I just remembered the prince's sentence in my mind, "This palace has no time to punish you"...... Some trance.
She thought she was going to die today. She knows all too well what happens to those who are unfavorable. But now that she has broken such a big thing, His Royal Highness means ...... Don't punish her?
Seeing that Zhixing was like a gourd, the anger in the prince's heart was nowhere to go, and he kicked Zhixing's heart and said angrily: "Waste! ”
The prince is angry, and in front of the stars on weekdays, he has never pretended to be a benevolent master, so this kick flew out, but the force was great.
Defenseless, Weaver was kicked away by the prince, and his back slammed into the leg of the table, spurting out a mouthful of blood.
The prince didn't expect to seriously hurt her, but when he saw that this kick was so heavy, he couldn't help but be stunned, but he didn't say anything. Keep turning and pacing.
Zhixing was kicked by the prince, and his heart hurt badly, but he didn't feel anything. Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he continued to kneel behind the prince.
Suddenly, he remembered what the prince had just said, and explained: "The subordinates and the thirteenth were waiting at the house of those two, and sent others to chase after them quickly, and ordered them to block the main roads into Beijing everywhere. But it wasn't until they caught up with them outside the city that they ...... They didn't find them. They are all subordinates, and they are not good. Subordinates should chase after them personally. ”
The prince frowned and said: "The third child is scheming, and the people under his hands are also better than the other. Since they have preempted it, it is even more difficult to catch it back, even if you go by yourself, you may not be able to catch up. Or maybe they didn't come to Kyoto Castle, but where they were hiding? ”
Weaver was his most effective secret guard, and this time things went wrong, and he was really angry. But after some venting, he calmed down, and felt that instead of punishing her heavily, it was better to use this time to sell her a grace, so that she could do things for him more desperately.
When the old horse still had a hoof, he killed the horse and lost a good horse with a good sense of human nature, and both were defeated; Keep her, if she can get things done next time, she will be remedied.
It's just that after this defeat, will his father still give him a chance to make amends?
Weaving Star listened to the prince's words, and his originally resolute eyes were a little moist......
It was a great grace for His Highness not to kill her, but I didn't expect His Highness to say comforting words so leniently.
"The people who sent out have all taken back the dark factory?" The prince turned around and asked calmly.
"Yes. Let them go back first, and wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to tell how to deal with it. "Weaver Channel.
The prince thought for a moment and asked, "How do you see them doing things?" Which ones are stronger and more alert, and which ones are a little worse? ”
"Chasing the clouds, chasing the moon, plus the previous seven people, plus the three newly selected people, a total of twelve people, all of whom were brought by their subordinates. Judging from this incident alone, these newcomers are not bad. Hands-on neatly, quietly. Those who are secretly guarding are invincible. "Weaver Channel.
The prince nodded and said, "Then keep it all." ”
At this time, it was the time to employ people, and he didn't have time to wait for the training of elites.
"It's just that you're usually vigilant, and you still can't let them know the identity of this palace. If you feel that anyone is restless, solve it immediately. The prince commanded again.
"Yes." Weaving Star answered.
Naturally, I know that His Highness did not suddenly have a kind heart, but because it was an extraordinary period. The more I realized this, the more I felt guilty. At such a moment, it caused a big trouble for His Royal Highness.
"But you left something that can prove that the Prince's Mansion did it?" The prince asked with a frown.
Weaving Star kowtowed: "My subordinates have thought about it for a long time, and I feel that although something has changed, it is more secure to follow His Highness's orders." It's not that the subordinates are dull and don't know how to be flexible, but the subordinates feel that no matter whether there is such a change or not, it is necessary to make it more obvious in order to have a chance to clear His Highness. His subordinates are bold and reckless, and if there is anything wrong, he is willing to be punished by His Highness. ”
The prince nodded and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, you've thought it through." If you don't leave anything behind, it's a bad thing for the palace. ”
Even if the third child is only two people away, but when the father sees the waist card of the prince's mansion, and those people deliberately point the finger at him, the first thought must be that the third child is harming him. Even if you think about it in the end, it must be an inconclusive result. As long as he justified it slightly, his father should not punish him severely.
But there will be punishment.
As long as it's not fatal and doesn't lose its position, he can't control so much of the rest.
"Those two craftsmen couldn't go fast, and even if they had already arrived at Kyoto Castle, they had just arrived. Before dawn, you quickly go to the city of Kyoto to search. Let's go to King Chen's Mansion first and see if the two craftsmen are in King Chen's Mansion. If there is no one in King Chen's mansion, go to Kyoto City to search. I searched from house to house, but in a hurry, I don't want to be discovered...... It's not going to be messed up, is it? ”
"Your Highness, rest assured, your subordinates must be cautious." Weaver Road.
The prince said: "It is naturally necessary to be cautious, but this time, what this palace wants to see is only the result." If you are discovered and caught, this palace will definitely not save your life. If you are discovered by the people of King Chen's Mansion, you have only one way to go - a dead end, understand? ”
"Yes." Weaving Star answered.
But...... What is the need to do this? What if the person is not in the palace of King Chen, nor is he in the city of Kyoto? No matter how cautious she is, she can't find anyone.
Just now the prince said that they couldn't go fast with those two craftsmen. It suddenly occurred to her that in that case, those people might not take the two craftsmen with them. Originally, she wondered if those people had hidden the two craftsmen somewhere, but now she felt more certain.
Therefore, I had to remind: "Your Highness...... What if those people didn't bring back the two craftsmen...... Do you want your subordinates to send someone out again and search for them in all directions? ”
The prince said: "If they don't go back to Kyoto City, the sky and the earth are big, where will you go to find them?" Or maybe they dug three feet into the ground and hid people underground. ”
