Chapter 441: The Emperor's Face

This is actually a temporary choice xìng blindness, everyone usually says that the Japanese are generally Japanese people, although there are also real Japanese and false Japanese among the Japanese Kou, but in everyone's cognition, the assassin must be the real Japanese people.

Therefore, everyone followed this line of thought to check, but there was no whereabouts at all.

But now listening to the statement of the surviving widow, everyone's thoughts have become brighter.

Xu Qian carefully examined the victim's wounds, glanced at Zhu Chen, and said, "Lord Zhu, Lord Zhu still cares about this investigation?" ”

Zhu Chen sneered: "Naturally, you have to take care of it, but now that there is a mess, it is naturally your father and son who are responsible." ”

Xu Qian raised his head and said: "Then our father and son are responsible, but now our father and son want to discuss the situation, and please avoid it." ”

This sentence is very polite, Zhu Chen is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, how can he say that he will avoid it? But Zhu Chen thought about it, what did he do when he got involved? Anyway, they were responsible for what happened, and it was not good to mix too much, so he sneered and said, "Then you can do it yourself." ”

After that, he went out with a few brocade guards.

Zhu Chen walked out of Honglu Temple, suddenly hooked his hand, called a retinue, and said: "Tell a few trustworthy people to keep an eye on here, and report at any time if there is a disturbance." ”

"Yes."

However, he said that Xu Qian and the others had already arrived at the main hall of Honglu Temple, and the officials of Honglu Temple were also very anxious, and said to Xu Chang: "Xu Qianhu, didn't you say that the Royal Academy is responsible for the safety of the envoys?" Now that such a major event has happened, if there is an impeachment of the Ming official, how can this be calculated? ”

As soon as something happens, everyone's first thought is to try their best to get rid of it, from Zhu Chen to the official of this Honglu Temple, Xu Qian and his son glanced at each other, they were used to seeing the hot and cold world, but they didn't get angry, Xu Qian said: "Didn't you just say it, the matter has happened, and it is our father and son's business that has something to do with it, but then again, now that we are investigating the case, everyone here must be controlled by our father and son, and please avoid it." ”

After sending everyone out, Xu Chang sighed and said with a wry smile: "The envoy has been frightened here, he must be restless, and it will definitely be difficult for the court to explain, and if he doesn't hold the real murderer, I'm afraid it will be really difficult to explain." ”

Xu Qian squinted his eyes and said: "Originally, there were no dead people, but there were no eyebrows at all, but now that the dead people have clues, this may not be an opportunity." Dad, let me ask you, the two widows have been targeted shortly after they went out, and then dozens of assassins who have long been ready to attack suddenly appear and carry out a surprise attack, what is the only possibility? ”

Xu Chang's eyes lit up, he was from the head of the county government team and had a lot of experience, and immediately said: "You mean to say that these assassins have been lying in ambush nearby, some people are specifically responsible for keeping an eye on them, and some people are specifically here to standby?" ”

Xu Qian nodded and said: "That's the truth, since there are people, then don't be afraid, dad think about it, this is an inner city, so many people must have a name no matter what they do, otherwise it will inevitably make people suspicious, since they are ambushed nearby, they must have an identity, this identity is enough for dozens or hundreds of people to stay here, and they will not be suspected." ”

Xu Chang followed Xu Qian's words and said: "Either someone has already built a big mansion here, and lives and lives here, so that people can act as servants, or someone pretends to be a businessman, puts down a warehouse or shop here, and pretends to do business with people, right?" ”

Xu Qian said: "That's the truth, as long as you follow this clue to check, you will definitely have a harvest." ”

Xu Chang immediately couldn't sit still, and immediately called Xu Yong and Xu Han, and whispered a few words, the two of them nodded, and went out at night, naturally to re-check the neighborhood, Xu Chang seemed to be a little relieved, and turned around the hall with his hands behind his back, and followed out.

However, Xu Qian was quite calm, sitting here drinking tea and recuperating his spirits, but after a while, Wang Fen came in and said, "My lord, do you have eyebrows now?" ”

Xu Qian saw that her face was pale, and she seemed to be frightened, so he asked her to sit down and said, "I wonder if His Royal Highness Qiu Shinobu is frightened?" The official is not well protected, and he still hopes that Miss Haihan. ”

Wang Fen smiled reluctantly: "Your Highness is indeed frightened, if you don't get rid of these assassins, Your Highness will always be uneasy, since your Excellency wants to investigate thoroughly, I don't know what we can do to help your Excellency?" ”

Xu Qian shook his head and said: "Thank you for your kindness, you don't have to meddle in this kind of thing, this is the business of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Wang Fen glanced at Xu Qian strangely and said, "Since that's the case, then please." ”

It was late at night, the lights were lit in the warm pavilion, and Jiajing, who came from Qianning Palace, frowned, listening to Huang Jin's announcement at his feet.

Jiajing Sensen smiled and said: "What a bold man, he really dares to do it at the feet of the Son of Heaven, is it really no one in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Huang Jin smiled bitterly: "Xu Qianhu and Xu Shiyu have already checked, there must be an echo, but ......"

"But what?" Jiajing said coldly.

Huang Jindao: "But the slave maid sees that this command makes Zhu Chen and the Xu family's father and son very uncomfortable, and I am afraid that there will be intrigue between them at this juncture......

Huang Jin is Huang Jin, as the director of Dongchang Factory, he will never let go of the slightest opportunity to hit Jinyiwei, speaking of which, when he was in Xingwangfu, Huang Jin and Zhu Chen's relationship was quite good, but now that they have arrived in Beijing, the two of them are their masters, and the relationship has long been faded, and they are polite on the surface, but what these two people think in their hearts, God knows.

Jiajing narrowed his eyes and said, "You go on." ”

Huang Jindao: "I am most afraid of self-chaos in doing things, Xu Changxin has jumped too fast recently, and he has long made Commander Zhu uneasy, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that if things can't be done, it will be a joke." The slave didn't mean to slander anyone, she just felt ......"

Jiajing said lightly: "Zhu Chen, this person, is indeed not reliable, but he is loyal, hey...... When I was still the prince of the king, he was always by my side and obeyed my words. As for Xu Chang, he is also loyal, he has done a lot of things for me over the years, this palm is meat, and the back of the hand is naturally meat, this matter, I will consider it. ”

Although Huang Jin saw Jiajing's hesitation, he was ecstatic in his heart, he could feel that Jiajing's dissatisfaction with Zhu Chen had increased a few points, and he was not reliable, this was not a good remark, the reason why he was still used at the moment was because there was still kindness, but after all, His Majesty was His Majesty, no longer the former prince and prince, this feeling would eventually be indifferent, after all, people's status has undergone earth-shaking changes, and there will eventually be a rì, if Zhu Chen does not make some achievements, His Majesty's patience will wear out.

Jiajing said slowly: "What I'm worried about now is what the ministers will say, and what the envoys of various countries will think?" The envoy entered Beijing, but was assassinated. This matter can't be covered, and it's not decent, speaking of which, this is also the Xu family's father and son, they have the ability, just see if they don't do their best, you plan to go to a central order, send it to Xu Chang and Xu Qian early in the morning, just tell them, I am very unhappy, I have to ask them for it, I have to let them know how powerful things are......"

Huang Jin hurriedly said: "The slave obeys the order." ”

Jiajing seemed to be a little unbearable, and said: "That's it, there is still no need to issue the will of this application, they must be very anxious now, and I will apply for it again, which will inevitably make them even more anxious, so I can only do this for the time being." ”

Huang Jin couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, if the father and son of the Xu family know, they must be grateful." ”

Jiajing reluctantly laughed and said, "Isn't there a sentence?" The king regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the king as the heart; The monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman; The king regards his ministers as mustard, and the ministers regard him as an enemy. I treat their father and son with brotherly courtesy, they naturally want to be my heart, you might as well do this, Ming rì, you go out, let the imperial dining room warm two pots of ginseng soup, just say that I know their hard work, let them pay more attention to their bodies, don't be too tired, eat some ginseng soup to nourish the body. ”

Huang Jin was stunned, and immediately understood what Jiajing meant, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has no intention of blaming, but is full of care, although there is no whipping, but as a courtier, he made a mistake, but His Majesty gave him ginseng soup, so appeased, how can he not teach people to go all out." ”

Jiajing sighed and said, "It's not that I want to force them, it's really that the stakes in this matter are getting bigger and bigger, and now I have to go down the stairs, and I have to pick up this face that I threw out, which is also a matter of no choice." ”

Huang Jindao: "Xu Qianhu is an old criminal name, and it is not a problem to think about it, but Xu Shishu is resourceful, and there will definitely be gains." ”

"I hope so." Jiajing yawned and ordered: "Clean up the warm pavilion, I won't go back to Qianning Palace, just stay here, and also, if there is any news outside, I should report it immediately, Ming Rì asked the Ministry of Rites Shangshu to go to Honglu Temple in person, to appease the Japanese envoys, tell them, I will definitely give them an explanation, they came from afar, but encountered such a thing, after the assassins get it, I will personally summon them, let them rest easy, no matter what, first to appease people, this is not just for the Japanese envoys to see, I have to do it for others to see, if I don't pay attention to it, I am afraid that it will chill the hearts of the envoys of various countries. However, if you say a thousand or ten thousand things, you have to show the real murderer, otherwise no matter how to appease them, what's the use, they must still be lurking in the capital, waiting for the opportunity, vainly trying to commit murder again, don't make people panic. ”
