Chapter 64: Frontal Assault Epilogue

063 The end of the frontal assault on the court

changed into a warm pavilion, Zhu Youzhen also changed into loose clothes and walked in, Han Ying, Cheng Jiming and Zhou Yanru from the cabinet, Qian Longxi from the Criminal Department, and Zhang Weixian, the British minister, sat in a row on chairs, and Li Ruolian stood next to the warm collapse.

Zhu Youzhen casually sat cross-legged on the warm couch, looked at Li Ruolian with a serious face and said:

"Okay, only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves, I don't mean to blame you. It's your credit to be able to find Blessing so quickly. All the bigwigs are here, you pick up the important ones to talk about. ”

Li Ruolian breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and then said:

"In fact, at the time of the court meeting, the horseman of Jiading Bo Zhoukui's family went crazy and said that he wanted heaven grass. The next one who went crazy was the Hakka family, who was also saying that after finishing this wave, there would be endless heaven grass to smoke. ”

Chen followed the heavenly grass and checked it briefly, and found that it all pointed to the blessing of the Nanyang Guild Hall. I also brought back the blessings, and I went crazy on the way back. As for the rest, we need to investigate it again. ”

There is a key point in this Li Ruolian did not say, when he sent the situation here, he quickly got clear instructions from the emperor. It is to ask him to check according to the heavenly grass, and clearly tell him that this thing should only be owned by certain people.

Hearing this, Han Ying said:

"Fortunately, Your Majesty is more familiar with the habits of this thing, otherwise it would have been a bad end to the trouble today."

Zhu Youzhen smiled:

"When I was in the letter to the king, I looked through the royal pharmacopoeia and happened to remember this thing. This thing is very toxic, but it does not cause death for the time being. But once you leave this thing, what kind of fate it will be, everyone has seen it today. But there are two things, this thing is a good medicine in the hands of the good man. ”

"Your Majesty is erudite." Han Yinggong praised him, and this matter was over within the scope of the cabinet's attention. As for the punishment of these people, they have to spend the Spring Festival in the prison.

Zhu Youzhen raised his head and saw the glint in the eyes of Zhou Yanru and Li Ruolian.

"Don't even think about it." Zhu Youzhen pointed directly at them and said. "This thing is something that tempts people to hell. It's not just about the people who smoke him, it's about the people who are going to think of it for other purposes. Once this kind of thing spreads, the destruction of the country is light, and it is more likely that the species will be destroyed. You can't, you can't get contaminated with it at all. ”

Both of them were a little dumbfounded.

One of them remembered the exchange of money, and the other remembered the establishment of the state.

"There's no news from Empress Yi'an?" Zhu Youzhen continued to ask Li Ruolian. "Before leaving, the emperor asked me to treat Empress Yi'an well, so that I would not be embarrassed to see the imperial brother in the future."

"It is reported every seven days, and the minister has checked and found no report on this matter. Either it was empty talk and slandering people's innocence, or the queen herself suppressed it. ”

"Cheng," Zhu Youzhen waved his hand, "Send another group of people over, let the imperial sister-in-law decide her own behavior, and you Jinyiwei will be responsible for the safety of the matter." Everything will wait until the imperial sister-in-law returns to Beijing. ”

"That's the end of it. The rest of the British Duke Zhang Weixian looked at the city more, you are also the head of my Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, don't let there be any demons and monsters in the Beijing Division all day long. The Criminal Department carefully sorted it out, focusing on the origin of the Heaven Grass and the goal of the blessings, and used the Heaven Grass to tempt my important ministers, just for such a boring thing? Or is there another arrangement? I don't want to worry about every day. ”

After that, Zhu Youzhen stretched his waist: "Everyone has worked hard for a year, and I will be rewarded in a few days, so let's have a good year." ”

The palace was stable, but there was chaos in front of the Nanyang Hall.

On weekdays, there are some people who want to buy some Western goods, and those who eat some southern snacks are unlucky today. Jin Yiwei didn't listen to any explanation, he grabbed people when he saw them, put an iron chain on his neck, and took them to Fusi's own cell in Beizhen. The rest of the people began to search for suspicious people along each house.

Lai Shunzhi still doesn't know what's going on in his hall.

In the afternoon, he took Aike and Sui Hu to visit Gu Changzuo, the richest man who came to Beijing from Shanghai County. Originally, he just looked at Xu Guangqi's face and was polite, but he didn't expect the two of them to be familiar at first sight. Especially after visiting the cheap shop that Gu Changzuo was building in his backyard, Lai Shunzhi felt that his vision was much broader.

His visit to Beijing this time went quite smoothly. Xu Guangqi and Sun Yuanhua were no longer as poor as when they met him earlier, and they suddenly became nouveau riche. Sun Yuanhua ordered samples of all the firearms he brought, and he could place an order after sending them to Jingshi for verification. According to Sun Yuanhua's meaning, the imperial court has really made up its mind to take the road of innovation this time, as long as the things are good, everything that is sent will be wanted. It even seems that the imperial court wants to build a firearms factory in Beijing that is similar to that of Macau.

Not only that, Sun Yuanhua also introduced to him on the same day that Lord Mao Yuanyi, who was involved in the preparation of the naval structure plan of the military department. Although the other party doesn't know anything about the sea and the ocean, he is very approachable. In the end, it was agreed that some Chinese and foreigners, whether Chinese or foreigners, could be invited to Beijing to assist in the preparation of naval and maritime transportation plans.

When Lai Shunzhi came back to talk to Echo about it, he rarely noticed the dazzling light that erupted in Echo's eyes. No, today, at the request of Echo, the two of them went to visit the military headquarters again but did not see anyone.

Seeing that the corner was the street where the Nanyang Kaikan was located, he was hit by a man wearing a hat.

"Childe, let's go, there's an accident in the guild hall."

Lai Shunzhi just stretched out his hand and was about to push the person away, but he didn't expect it to be his own Master Wu.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"This is not the place to talk, let's leave first."

Master Wu looked terrified. He was also lucky, he woke up late in the morning, and when he was hungry, he heard the sound of selling haggis at the door. Master Wu was originally from Shanxi, so it's just like this. So he put down the breakfast in the hall, slipped across the street, sat down at a roadside stall, and asked for a big bowl.

Just as he was about to eat, a large group of brocade guards rushed over directly, and instantly surrounded the Nanyang Guild Hall. The leader just walked to the door, and was blocked at the door by the most arrogant eldest son in his family.

"What's wrong with Jinyiwei? Even if the prince is here, the Nanyang Hall does not mean that it can be surrounded by it, and you have to ask me if I wish to come to Fu. ”

"You're the blessing."

"I'm just blessed." The leader was still not at ease, so he dragged the guy next to him and asked: "Jinyiwei asked, you answer honestly, is this the blessing of the Nanyang Guild?" ”

After getting the exact answer. The leading brocade guard Qianhu didn't say a word, and stabbed a scabbard on the stomach of Laifu, taking advantage of Laifuzhi's pain and bending over, the fans on both sides put the thick hemp rope on it, and tied Laifuzhi to a strong knot. As soon as Lai Fuzhi was about to shout, the Qianhu casually stuffed a piece of cork into his mouth.

Then in a hurry, he threw the bound Blessing horizontally on the horse's back.

"I'm going to give the commander his life. You are surrounded by the guild hall, and you can only go in and out, do you hear me? After saying that, he turned on his horse and walked away.
