Chapter 619: King Xing enters Beijing
The capital of the Ming Dynasty was called Youdu in ancient times, and later renamed Jicheng and Youzhou. Since the beginning of Liao, and then experienced the Jin, Yuan, and Ming dynasties, all of which were for the capital division.
The whole city is designed in accordance with the records of "Nine Classics and Nine Tracks", "Facing the Rear City" and "Zuozu Right Society" in the "Zhouli Examination Record", with extremely strict planning and perfect facilities.
On this day, at the Yongding Gate in the capital, a horse-drawn carriage drove slowly over, driven by a man in black with a sad face and wrinkles, who looked like a farmer who worked all year round. It's just that the materials and workmanship used in his clothes are of high quality, and they look incompatible with his appearance.
"Childe, the capital has arrived. The man in black glanced at the three big characters hanging high on the city gate, turned around and bowed his head, and said to the people in the car.
"After several days of turbulence, I finally arrived in the capital. The curtain was lifted by a hand, revealing a young face. This person's face is handsome, but his eyes are narrow and his lips are slightly thin, which makes people feel no closeness at all. If Fang Hong was here, he would definitely find out that this person was the king of Na'an Lu.
The vassal king of the imperial court was not allowed to leave the fiefdom without the permission of the imperial court. This King An not only left the fiefdom, but also ran to the capital, if it was known, it would definitely cause an uproar.
"Old Hei, find a place to park this carriage, and I'll go into the city to see it myself. King Xing jumped out of the carriage directly, waved at the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man nodded, shook the reins, and quickly set up the carriage and left.
"It's really a prosperous place in the world. After entering the city, King Xing looked at the shops around him and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. The Jingshi of the Ming Dynasty may not be as exquisite as Jinling, but it is a little more magnificent.
This place is the place where the fortune of the Ming Dynasty gathers, the core of the whole world.
King Xing entered the city, and did not hide his own hiding, and walked around the city as if he were strolling leisurely, and he was not afraid of being discovered.
He went all the way to the east end of the capital, where there was a mansion, and there was no plaque hanging on the house, but everyone knew that this was the power of the government and the opposition, Pingyubo, the commander of Dongchang, and the Jiang Bin of Jinyiwei.
This mansion was given to Jiang Bin by the emperor, and it was relatively close to the palace, and most of the time, Jiang Bin liked to live here.
Today is the day of rest, Jiang Bin did not go to the court, nor did he go to the government, so he finally had a leisure, so he rested at home. In fact, he didn't dare to run around, he was deeply respected by the emperor, and when he couldn't keep it, the emperor would order someone to summon him into the palace. So, he had to wait at home at all times.
Jiang Bin's reputation is very bad, and those scholars desperately smear him, on the one hand, because of the natural antagonistic camp relationship between the two sides, and on the other hand, many evil things are deducted from his own head. What robbed the people's daughters, what was rampant, he has always portrayed himself as a villain who does all kinds of evil.
But in fact, Jiang Bin is a very self-disciplined person, he is not greedy for money, he is not lustful, and he even drinks very little, which is even more serious than many Confucian students.
The reason why he smeared himself vigorously was because he knew that what the emperor needed was a vicious dog that could restrain those clear streams, and he had to play this role. Moreover, he also needs to take the blame for the emperor, in this world, the emperor will never be wrong, and the only fault can be the people around him. If he is a righteous gentleman, how can he take the blame for the emperor?
Jiang Bin is a smart man, he is smarter than most people, so he climbed to his current position.
"Ascending to the top and wanting to be poor for a thousand miles, and the clouds are low and locking Hengyang Road......" In the back garden, Jiang Bin was watering the flowers and plants with a kettle in one hand, humming and singing lyrics in his mouth, looking extremely complacent.
Don't look at him as rough and heroic, but the lyrics are low and tactful, and the charm is inexhaustible, but it has a bit of flavor.
"The governor of Jiang is leisurely and elegant, and this Jiangxi is about to be broken. Jiang Bin was singing complacently, and suddenly, a voice came from his side, as if it was very far away, and it seemed to be close at hand.
Jiang Bin's wrist stiffened, and he immediately looked up and thought ahead. I don't know when, in a pavilion not far from him, I saw a boy in a brocade robe. The person in front of him was very unfamiliar to him, and after thinking about it carefully, he was sure that he had never seen it before.
"Who are you? Trespass on my Beppu, believe it or not, I'll let someone take you right now. Jiang Bin's eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of killing intent leaked out.
He commanded Dongchang and Jinyiwei, who was a military attache of the Ming Dynasty, although he was a dog in front of the emperor, but in front of outsiders, he was extremely powerful, and he didn't know how many people died under his hands. His glare, if he was a little timid, he was afraid that he would be scared directly.
"Governor Jiangdu is such a great official, I came this time to send you a letter, I hope you can be so powerful after reading this letter. With a flick of his fingers, a piece of white paper suddenly shot out and came towards Jiang Bin.
The scene in front of him startled Jiang Bin, a fluttering piece of paper turned out to be like a piece of iron. He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but when the paper reached Jiang Bin's side, it fell down abruptly, like a leaf.
Jiang Bin copied it and pinched it in his hand. On the top of this letterhead, there are about ten lines of small print. The moment he saw the handwriting on it, Jiang Bin's pupils shrank slightly.
He was very familiar with this letter, and it was clearly the one he wrote to King Ning. It was the imperial court that wanted to investigate Baitouling, and he had some friendship with King Ning, so he wrote a letter to inform King Ning in advance.
Originally, he only wrote to inform him because he received the favor of King Ning. Originally, it was nothing, who would have thought that this King Ning was also a reckless person, and he would rebel directly, which made Jiang Bin sit on wax, if this letter was known by the imperial court, that is, the emperor would not protect him.
Rebellion is a red line, and no emperor will allow it.
"Where did you get this letter?" Jiang Bin clenched the letter tightly, and after his eyes changed a few times, he directly tore up the letter, until it was all in pieces, and then he took a deep breath.
This boy watched Jiang Bin tear up the letter, and he didn't stop it, just looked at Jiang Bin with a smile, and his expression was like looking at a mouse that had been struggling in vain.
"I got this letter, naturally I have my channel, I came to you this time, there is something else. Brother Gongzi sat on the railing on the side a little lazily, and looked up at Jiang Bin, this appearance made people think that he was in his own home.
