Yao Ji was thinking wildly in the dark, but he didn't think about his life and death at all, let alone Han Changdui took the confession made by Meng Sui after a night of interrogation, changed into a neat four-rank young envoy robe, and entered the palace with an expressionless face.

Gao Fuguo, who was waiting outside the study, heard a little heart-wrenching roar, which shocked his heart, and he thought, some secrets couldn't be covered, and finally dried in the sun.

No one knew what Han Changwan and Emperor Yong'an had said, what they promised and what they had gained, and only a few attendants saw that the always calm Han Shao Envoy left with a blank face.

After Han Changdui left, Gao Fuguo took the ginseng soup into the study, carefully cleaned up the white jade paperweight broken into eight petals on the ground, took a new paperweight from the lattice, and gently rested it on the bookcase.

Emperor Yong'an raised his head from behind the half-human-high folds, his sideburns seemed to turn white overnight, his eyes were red, and he said in a dumb voice: "Go to the Internal Security Division to pass the decree, give the Internal Security Division the second rank to retire, and the Internal Security Division Major Envoy Han Changdui will be promoted to the third rank of the Internal Security Envoy." ”

Gao Fuguo seemed to have expected this result, and responded calmly.

The morning light is like a wash, through the window, the shadow on the gold brick is finely broken, like a broken past annihilated in the years, from clear to hazy, and finally no one knows.

If you don't say it's pain, it's a sin.

A messy and heavy footsteps came from far and near, and Yao Qi suddenly raised his head.

The sound of the key unlocking and the swaying of the chain was transmitted into the prison very clearly, and she was stunned for a moment, her eyes calm as water, without a trace of waves.

This is a helpless game and gamble under the imperial power.

The bet is that Han Changdui still has a trace of awe of imperial power.

Win is the imperial power and military power in the future, who has more right to speak.

Today, it's time for this gamble to finally come to an end.

The iron door was heavily opened, and the bottom of the door brushed against the wet blue brick floor, making a hoarse and ugly sound.

The light suddenly dispersed the darkness, Yao Ji raised his hand to block it in front of him, only to feel a sharp pain in his eyes, and squinted his eyes to adapt.

Han Changdui stood in the light, clearly distinguishing from the darkness.

As soon as he returned home, the holy decree was transmitted to the Department of Internal Guard, and the purple-robed gold and jade belt of the third-grade high-ranking official was also delivered, and it was being held in Meng Sui's hand at the moment.

The sun shone on the red gold pattern at the hem of the garment, and the golden light was dazzling.

Yao Qi's gaze paused on the golden vein, and slowly moved to Han Changdu's face.

He is already a high-ranking official of the third grade, and in this game between imperial power and military power, he did not fall behind, but why was he not complacent, on the contrary, lonely vicissitudes.

Han Changwan and Yao Qi glanced at each other, and through the low prison door, they sneered: "Yao was disappointed when he joined the army?" ”

Yao Qi pursed his lips and was silent.

Han Changdu's face showed a trace of anger, fleeting, and sneered: "Yao regretted joining the army and didn't choose this official?" ”

In the face of imperial power and military power, Yao Qi finally chose imperial power, whether she took the initiative or was forced to be helpless, it was a choice that could not turn back, and it was also the best and only choice for her at that time.

She didn't know what Han Changdui said to Emperor Yong'an, so she had today's result, but how could she allow others to snore on the side of the couch, and it was only a matter of time before Emperor Yong'an's tough iron blood was used to take back the military power and suppress many marquis who had high achievements.

Winning for a while is not a win, winning for a lifetime

It's about winning.

She believes that today's result is just the beginning, and the contest is yet to come.

She's a victim, I'm afraid that there will still be some to survive.

Her silent appearance really annoyed Han Changdu, and he reached out angrily and dragged Yao Ji out, dragged him to the stagnant water, and whispered in her ear: "Ah Qi, I want you to open your eyes and take a good look at your life and death in the future, and he is not the only one who has the final say." ”

Yao Qi slowly raised his head, tugged at the corners of his lips, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'll wait and see." ”

Han Changdui let go of his hand, returned to his previous coldness and calmness, and turned his head to He Zhenfu and ordered, "Send Yao to join the army and return to Jingzhao Mansion." ”

Hearing this, Yao Qi breathed a low sigh of relief, stood up with difficulty on his knees, and took two steps stiffly, but turned back suddenly: "What about Bao Cheng?" ”

Han Changdui was suddenly angry, laughed angrily, and mocked: "He confessed to you, and you still think about him, it is really sincere, and it touches the heavens and the earth." ”

Yao Qi smiled: "The young envoy doesn't have to test the lowly position, if he really confesses the lowly position, I am afraid that the adult will bring him over to humiliate the lowly position." ”

Han Changdui was stunned, his breath was held in his heart, he couldn't go up or down, in the silence, he heard the sound of something breaking, his heart twitched, his face still maintained a sneer, and said lightly: "Take it away." ”

Seeing that Yao Ji didn't look back and walked into the morning light, he suddenly grabbed the placket of his clothes and turned around.

The Department of Internal Security made Xia Jigang retire from the second rank, and the young envoy Han Changwan was promoted to the third rank of the main envoy, this news fell into the middle of the lake like a drop of water, but it only caused a few ripples, and it did not cause much shock.

After all, not long after the New Year, Xia Jigang went to the fold of the beggar bones, and Emperor Yong'an would approve this excerpt sooner or later.

The Internal Guard Division is the eagle dog of Emperor Yong'an, the sharp knife sharpened in his hand, and no one who is the right envoy can change the bloody and cruel nature of this place.

After leaving Xia Jigang's knife, there are other knives, or everyone is quite happy to see Han Changdu's knife on the throne, after all, Emperor Yong'an has just used this knife, and it is still in the run-in period, so it is not so sharp.

But soon, everyone's fantasies were viciously slapped in the face by reality.

The two of them seem to have run in faster, and they are getting better, Han Changdu's knife is better than Xia Jigang.

In order not to frighten those young people who only see blood and killing in books, and affect their performance during scientific expeditions, there is an unwritten tacit understanding in the DPRK that when the spring season is approaching, it will not raid the city and kill people with great fanfare.

But this time it seems to be a little different.

On the second day after Han Changdu's promotion to the envoy of the Sanpin Internal Guard, a large number of internal guards poured out of the nest, and at the same time raided the Mansion of King An, Song Ying, the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the Mansion of Zheng Bin, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, and even the mansion of Wang Kuan, who had been hanged by the Ministry of War.

Such a large-scale raid on the family and people shocked the whole dynasty, and the excerpts of impeachment of Han Changdui flew all over Emperor Yong'an's desk like snowflakes, but they sank into the sea like a stone, and there was no echo.

The courtiers who connected a few folds and couldn't get half a word of Emperor Yong'an slowly came back to their senses.

The saint didn't lead it, and he saw the right time to catch it all, this is a big deal.

That's it, let's stop talking.

Someone secretly entered these houses after the Internal Security Department searched the house and arrested people

Di Zhong read it, and sighed after reading it.

Han Changdu's means of looting are even better than Xia Jigang's.

The good mansion was forcibly emptied, and even the walls were scraped off several floors, from a "hardcover room" to a "rough house".

The antique porcelain, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, gold, silver and jewelry, and home furnishings that can be moved away, but all those that can be exchanged for money have already been sent to the Department of Internal Health for registration, sealing, and storage, just waiting for the case to be filled into the state treasury as soon as the case is over.

The worthless blue bricks, gray tiles, Taihu stones, pots and pans, etc., were smashed one by one by the internal guards who adhered to the purpose of not taking advantage of themselves and never cheapening others.

Just when everyone was shocked by this kind of copying, smashing, and grabbing the light, Emperor Yongan finally had a clear will about what had happened in the past few days.

The will immediately set off an uproar.

King An, Zheng Bin, and Song Ying colluded with the eunuchs of the inner court to practice witchcraft in Chang'an City, mutilating human lives, accumulating gold and silver, and cholera chaogang, and even communicating with the Four Holy Sects that were destroyed a few days ago, and robbing the 800,000 taels of silver sent to Yumen Pass.

Even the soldiers who fought bloodily dared to start with the money, which was really unbearable for uncles and aunts.

The courtiers who did not fold the bullet to impeach Han Changdui secretly rejoiced in their hearts, being a dumb person who only listens and doesn't say anything can save his life.

And the courtiers who were scolded by the fold suddenly felt empty-hearted, and they were all anxiously waiting for Emperor Yong'an's autumn queen to settle accounts, how could they still have the heart to talk more and move more.

On the cusp of this storm, whoever emerges first is unlucky.

As a result, the court in the past few days has been exceptionally clean, without the noise of the dead and dead, Emperor Yong'an is a little uncomfortable, and he always feels that there are shortcomings.

The court was quiet, Emperor Yong'an was idle, but the internal guard department was extremely busy.

The screams in the torture chamber continued from day to night.

The various torture instruments were scattered several times, so I had to ask craftsmen to make new torture instruments overnight and send them in.

The stolen goods and money copied from various mansions were piled up in the treasury of the Internal Security Division, as if they could not be piled up, Han Changdui waved his hand and sent the part sorted out into the palace first, and let the internal guards count and sort it out overnight, and send it to the palace as soon as possible to make room for the stolen goods and money later.

It is common for internal guards to raid homes and arrest people and interrogate people, and it is a little unbearable to face such a non-stop rotation for twelve hours.

Therefore, the chef of the Department of Internal Health prepares hot dishes and hot meals for twelve hours, just like a running water feast, and eats when he is hungry, and continues to work after eating.

After two days of busy work, the punishment that should have been used has been used, the mouth has been spit out, the confessions and physical evidence are all compared and examined, and the mountains of gold, silver and jewelry have also been counted, Han Changdui suddenly felt refreshed, and entered the palace with the stack of booklets.

Since the day of the fight, he had a deep conversation with Emperor Yong'an in the study, and this was the first time he entered the palace to face the saint.

He originally wanted to never see Emperor Yong'an again for the rest of his life.

But after staying up day and night on errands in the past few days, he suddenly had an epiphany in the extreme fatigue and figured out a truth.

It wasn't his fault what happened back then, why did he torture himself with the fault of others.

The person who made the mistake is embarrassed, and he is an innocent person who is embarrassed.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that the matter of entering the palace to face the saint was not so difficult to face.
