The conversation that happened in the Yang family was not an exception, at the moment when Lu Hanjiang returned to Beijing after disappearing for more than half a year, every family in the court had similar conversations.

The core of the content discussed is nothing more than one, whether to continue to follow Jinyiwei.

Lu Hanjiang, the new commander, has already made his attitude clear, he is not interested in controlling the court, the Jinyi guards are killed, and the officials are arrested, but the affairs of the court are affected, and this Lord Lu seems to be lacking in interest.

This made a large part of the ministers who planned to follow Jinyiwei to eat meat and drink soup in their hearts.

This is understandable, people took refuge in the original to make profits, but now that Jinyiwei has changed their minds, they can't get benefits, so they are naturally unwilling to bow down and obey orders.

It's not that no one in Jinyi Wei sees this, such as Wu Qiming, who ran for most of the day to pull Lu Hanjiang back, just for this matter.

Wu Qiming once persuaded Lu Hanjiang about this, isn't it good for Xiao Gui Cao to follow, Jinyi Weiquan has been leaning towards the government and the opposition for many years, and the brothers are used to the happy days of collecting dogs everywhere, and suddenly they want to change, this sense of disparity is really uncomfortable.

Wu Qiming is not alarmist, thinking that although Jinyiwei was notorious at the beginning, but when people saw Old Man Meng Yuan on the surface, he should salute or salute, and the gossip was spread privately at most.

It's good now, but there are people who dare to scold people in front of them.

In the audience, a Confucian in white clothes, holding a copy of the penal code of the dynasty, shouted loudly: "Lu Hanjiang! You are the first scourge of today! I-"

"Take it!" Wu Qiming gave an order, and several brocade guards rushed forward, covering their mouths and tying up people, and immediately put this crazy lock in place.

Wu Qiming turned over and dismounted, walked forward with a pale face, looked down at this unruly young student, and said coldly: "What a bold man, he intercepted the commander on the street and made the adult's frame, and dared to say that he was not inferior, and immediately pressed this person into the edict prison for good interrogation, and he must ask his comrades!" ”

"Yes!" A few brocade guards ordered the man to be suppressed.

Wu Qiming's cold eyes swept over the surrounding crowd, and everyone showed horror on their faces, and immediately dispersed, and the street was empty in a moment.

Today is the second day after Lu Hanjiang returned to Beijing, according to the usual practice, he, the commander, should also go to the palace to wander around, and meeting the emperor is secondary, the old emperor is now cultivating immortals and is about to enter the devil, and he basically does not see outsiders, including him, the commander of the Jinyi guard.

Now the emperor is not in the court, the operation of the state machine mainly depends on the cabinet, once during the Meng Yuan period, the cabinet was half a puppet of Jinyiwei, and basically acted according to orders, so when discussing political affairs, he would also be in the list of commanders of Jinyiwei.

Lu Hanjiang was also persuaded by Wu Qiming for a long time before he reluctantly agreed to go, but he didn't expect that before he walked out of the street, someone jumped out and scolded.

The brocade guards around him were also fierce, a year ago, who would dare to do such a thing in public, but now, even a random little-known pawn dared to scold the street.

However, Lu Hanjiang didn't think there was anything, but made Yongle, who was traveling with him, grit his teeth angrily, and today he went to the court, and the little girl also went to the palace to visit the concubine.

"This man is truly hateful!" Yongle said angrily: "You have only been in office for a long time, why is he scolding people like this." ”

Lu Hanjiang clapped his hands and said with empathy: "Yes, this bad thing was done by the old man when he was in office, why should you blame me." ”

"That's it. Well? ”

Yongle nodded first, and then came back to her senses, her little face was red with anger: "You! How can you rely on uncle, I didn't mean that! ”

Lu Hanjiang smiled, Yongle didn't ask him to change his words, he talked about him left and right, the two fought all the way to the palace gate, and the little girl finally parted with him with a stomach.

Then Lu Hanjiang went to the cabinet, a group of old men were already in place, and they had already started a quarrel before he arrived, in addition to this group of ministers, there was also a eunuch with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes on the side, standing like a wooden man, without speaking or raising his head.

Lu Hanjiang looked at the old man who seemed to have seen it somewhere, so he didn't pay attention to the group of old men who were spitting and flying around, but leaned towards the eunuch, looked at it, and asked, "Father-in-law seems to be kind-faced?" ”

The eunuch raised his head slightly, glanced at Lu Hanjiang, and then nodded with a smile: "Slave Cao Yuan, the commander and the master actually have a slave and maid, it is really frightening." ”

Cao Yuan, isn't that the head of the eunuch in the palace, the chief eunuch with the palm print of the old emperor's side of the celebrant eunuch.

Lu Hanjiang's eyes flashed a little suddenly, and then he arched his hand and said, "It turned out to be Gonggong Cao, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

Cao Yuan smiled and said nothing, Lu Hanjiang looked back at the group of elders with a very loud voice, and asked, "This cabinet discussion, is it like this every time?" ”

Cao Yuan nodded: "National affairs, there is no room for sloppiness, and it is also the responsibility of all the adults." ”

Lu Hanjiang let out an "oh", then listened to it for a while, and found that he couldn't insert the topic, so he simply put his head away, he looked left and right in the room, and then said coldly: "Gonggong Cao, when the official went to court today, there was a madman blocking the way. ”

Cao Yuan's face was as calm as water, and he said lightly: "There is such a thing? ”

Lu Hanjiang bowed, then looked at Cao Yuan, and asked, "Is this arranged by my father-in-law?" ”

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became heavy for a moment, Cao Yuan slightly moved his gaze away from the group of old adults in front of him, turned to Lu Hanjiang's body, and said with a smile: "Why did Lord Lu say this?" ”

Lu Hanjiang touched his chin and said: "The official thinks about it, the duties of the factory guards are similar, and they are all under the command of His Majesty, Jinyiwei has now retreated, it should be a good time for the father-in-law to rise up and suppress it, besides——"

Lu Hanjiang changed his words, and said: "Jin Yiwei didn't notice this matter in advance, the person who planned it must have a lot of skills in Beijing, so the father-in-law is the most suspicious." ”

After a little silence, Cao Yuan said: "Lord Lu misunderstood, you are a personal soldier relied on by His Majesty, I am a slave of His Majesty's trusted family, you and I are a family, if the disaster causes Xiao Wall, wouldn't it be for outsiders to take advantage." ”

Lu Hanjiang had a sudden expression on his face: "What my father-in-law said is very true, and this official also thinks that it is really hateful for these outside bandits to fabricate rumors and frame us and other pillars of society, it is better for you to borrow some people, and this official will go to exterminate their families." ”

Cao Yuan glanced at Lu Hanjiang deeply, and said respectfully: "Lord Lu said that he laughed, where is there any good hand in the hands of the slave and maid, a little small, and the warriors of the brocade guard are like clouds, and they can be destroyed with a single move." ”

"Why is my father-in-law so stingy," Lu Hanjiang sighed, and then said with a sincere face: "My father-in-law refuses to help, isn't he also a fellow party?" ”

Cao Yuan smiled and said, "Lord Lu doesn't think that His Majesty will believe such absurd words?" ”

Lu Hanjiang shook his head: "Your Majesty will naturally not believe it, but if the official insists on presenting a piece of paper, when Your Majesty is angry, there is still Lord Meng on top of the official, and the father-in-law can only bow his head and be scolded." ”

Cao Yuan smiled, stared at Lu Hanjiang for a moment, and asked, "How many people do you want to borrow?" ”

"Just borrow an East Factory." Lu Hanjiang blinked and said.

Cao Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "Dongchang's duty is to monitor the inner palace, and Lord Meng didn't dare to have this heart when he was there, doesn't Lord want to put his hand into the inner palace?" ”

Lu Hanjiang smiled: "Father-in-law, we are all our own people, why do you see the outside world so much, after Zou Ji died, didn't the East Factory secretly build a small West Factory to resume the old business, and your hand is not short." ”

Cao Yuan's complexion finally changed, his eyes gradually became deeper, and he stared at Lu Hanjiang for a long time before retracting his gaze and returning to his original appearance of ignoring the wooden man.

"That person is a disciple of the academy, but he is not Luo Yuanjing's personal inheritance." Cao Yuan's face did not change, and said lightly.

Lu Hanjiang smiled slightly: "Thank you father-in-law for your guidance." ”
