Next.

Zhang Anshi went to the edict prison and checked the file.

The people in the brocade clothes didn't dare to embarrass this Marquis of Annan, and even provided all the conveniences.

A dossier was copied, and Zhang Anshi immediately returned to Qixia.

Jinyi Weili is known for its fierce reputation.

And they have never been friendly to the East Palace.

On the one hand, Jinyiwei is directly under the royal family, and there may be a reason to avoid suspicion.

On the other hand, I am afraid that Ji Gang is suspected of supporting King Han.

It's just that his support is only point-to-point, and it doesn't involve too much.

However, it also shows the cunning of Ji Gang.

Zhang Anshi didn't believe that Ji Gang supported Zhu Gaoxu, just because he had a good relationship with Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaoxu's great intelligence, in fact, is the same as his brother-in-law, to a certain extent, he is just a sacrifice of careerists like Xie Jin and Ji Gang.

Their so-called support is just to bet on the treasure, and when they ascend to the throne, they will be transformed into a dragon hero.

Ji Gang's thinking direction is different from Xie Jin, Xie Jin believes that the prince is justified in etiquette and law, and has the greatest chance of succeeding the unification, so he bets on him, and the success rate is extremely high.

And Jin Yiwei like Ji Gang knew that on the one hand, the prince would not like people like him; On the other hand, it is also believed that Zhu Gaoxu's prestige in the army is high, and he controls the Jinyi Guard, which has three parts, one part is the Han general who controls the palace guard, one part is the Beizhen Fusi who is responsible for spying, and the other part is the Nanzhen Fusi who is in charge of the edict.

I'm afraid that Ji Gang's idea is that once Zhu Di has a physical problem, then he can cooperate with Zhu Gaochu inside and outside, and with Zhu Gaoxu's prestige, control the forbidden army, and the Han general controls the palace, and the Beizhen Fusi is responsible for spying, and finally there is a change to seize the door.

It can be said that in Zhang Anshi's mind, Zhu Gaoxu is nothing, but Ji Gang is the one who may pose a threat to his brother-in-law.

And this person is very scheming, he has always been hidden behind the scenes, if it weren't for the fact that Zhu Di in history lived for more than 20 years, and before his brother-in-law ascended the throne, he cleared the obstacles for his brother-in-law, I am afraid that he would ...... Ji Gang is really likely to be a bad person.

Facing such people...... The only thing Zhang Anshi wanted to do was to shake his trust in front of Zhu Di.

He had to find the so-called chaotic party before Ji Gang did.

Zhang Anshi read a few files, and then confidently wrote a few notes, and then found Zhu Jin and handed him the note: "Explain it, I want to check these things, I have to hurry." ”

Zhu Jin didn't dare to slack off, got the note, and hurried to get busy.

Immediately Zhang Anshi went to the East Palace, and when it was dark, Zhu Gaochi returned to the palace from the household department, Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, have you heard about the chaos of the party?" ”

Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head.

Zhang Anshi said: "My brother-in-law is the prince, I don't know about such an important matter, hey, it seems that someone is hiding it from my brother-in-law." ”

Zhu Gaochi sat down, took a sip of tea with an unchanged expression, and said calmly: "This palace is a prince, so you may not know everything." ”

Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said: "That being said, I'm just worried that when the time comes, what will be found out will finally implicate my brother-in-law." ”

Zhu Gaochi said unceremoniously: "Who dares to do this?" ”

Zhang Anshi said seriously: "This is not good, some people ...... is not loved by his brother-in-law, if he knows that he will not be liked by his brother-in-law in the future, he will inevitably jump off the wall in a hurry, but whenever he has the opportunity, he will pounce on it and bite it. ”

Zhu Gaochi didn't care, and smiled: "You, you're just too worried." Naturally, this palace also knows that you feel sorry for this palace, but there are some things, if you worry about everything, it won't work. The palace is still worried about it, it's so big, it's not married, and the Duke of Wei is in a hurry. ”

Zhang Anshi said stupidly: "I will develop for two more years." ”

Development......

Zhu Gaochi was slightly stunned, and probably understood the meaning: "It's strange, you are not close to women...... That's good too. ”

Zhang Anshi was anxious: "Brother-in-law, you can't say that, in our Zhang family, the maid that Sister picked for me is old and ugly, and she can be my mother." In a place like Qinglou, I'm afraid of harming the flowers and willows, how difficult it is for me. ”

Zhu Gaochi smiled slightly, looked clear, and said in a low voice: "Wait until you marry the girl of the Xu family and pass the door......

At this point, his voice was lowered: "I'll call the shots and give you a few good maidservants." ”

Zhang Anshi: "......"

Actually, it sounds like nothing.

The crux of the matter is that his brother-in-law talks to him about this......

Although this is not much in this era.

But Zhang Anshi always felt weird, so he said: "Brother-in-law, I'm not in good health, don't get close to women, you know?" ”

Zhu Gaochi coughed: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

Zhang Anshi thought to himself, I don't know you yet......

Zhang Anshi sighed and said, "Hey, I'm too difficult, I have to worry about the chaos of the party here, my brother-in-law over there, and my nephew." ”

Zhu Gaochi took another sip of tea before saying, "This messing with the party is indeed not a trivial matter. It's just that my father let this Ji Gang deal with it, if you exceed your authority, I'm afraid that he will be dissatisfied in his heart, and this person will ...... It's not easy to deal with, you have to be careful. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "It's because this person is not easy to deal with, so I'm worried." So be sure to get ahead of him! You wait, in less than ten days, I will have eyebrows here, and there are many capable people around me. ”

Zhu Gaochi just smiled bitterly, kept shaking his head and said, "Hey...... You're ......."

Zhang Anshi said goodbye and went back.

Along the way, thinking that Zhu Gaochi was not alert to this, Zhang Anshi was a little worried.

Zhu Gaoxu was defeated early and completely withdrew from the battle for the storage position, so Ji Gang must be uneasy now, and Ji Gang at this time is extremely dangerous.

For any powerful minister, especially a person like Ji Gang, since it has been confirmed that the prince will never trust him, he will definitely think about arranging a way back for himself, this person is a poisonous snake, and if he is not careful, he will be bitten.

…………

Within a few days.

The people of the whole capital panicked.

Brocade guards roam everywhere.

Immediately, a large number of people were sent to prison.

These people have scholars, businessmen, and no accidents...... Almost none came out.

Just when people were shocked, it was a report that was sent to Zhu Di's desk.

Zhu Di looked at the report and couldn't help but be furious: "So many people...... Is it related to these chaotic parties? ”

Yisha only stood with his body hooked, glanced at the report on the imperial case, and did not say a word.

"I don't know if I don't check it, but this check is not trivial." Zhu Di's face became more and more angry: "Look at it." ”

"Yes." Yisha stepped forward cautiously, took a note, and only glanced at it.

The vast majority of the so-called rebels here...... If you say that you are guilty, you are really more or less guilty, some have scolded the emperor behind their backs, and some have chased after the Northern Yuan.

There are many more ...... When the book was written, it involved the Northern Yuan Dynasty and was praised.

Yishu said: "Your Majesty...... These people ...... The slave maid thought ......"

"Say it." Zhu Di said lightly.

Yisha said: "These people's sins are big or small, but if you really talk about them, if you say that they are a chaotic party with ill intentions, the slave and maid feel that it is a bit excessive." ”

Zhu Di squinted his eyes and said, "What do you mean...... Discipline Gang planting? ”

"The slave didn't dare to say it." Yisha denied it: "It's just ...... These people alone. Not to be believed. If it is really as Chen Ji explained. These chaotic parties must be extraordinary......

Zhu Di stood up, his eyes flashed unfathomable, and he said, "I understand what you mean, these people...... It's not enough to make a big deal, there must be more important people behind it. ”

Yisha smiled and said, "Yes, the slave thinks so. ”

Zhu Di pondered for a moment and said, "Then urge Ji Gang and let him not take these small fish and shrimp to fool me." ”

After a pause, Zhu Di said again: "These people ...... Check it again, I'll see...... Few of them are real rebels. When someone writes an article, it says that Kublai Khan is a holy king, and they say that this person has ill intentions, what does he want to do? Is this perfunctory? Let him let people go, this kind of rotten Confucianism is just stupid, such a stupid person, do you still want to deal with him as a chaotic party? ”

Yisha nodded: "Why don't you check it all over here?" ”

Zhu Di nodded: "That's it." ”

Yishu breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly returned to the celebrant and summoned the other eunuchs.

Just began to explain the matter, but at this time, a eunuch hurriedly came and said anxiously: "Grand Duke, it's terrible." It's incredible. ”

Yisha looked up, but it was Liu Yongcheng,

This Liu Yongcheng is not an ordinary person, although he is a eunuch, but he is skilled in bowing and horses, and now he is the eunuch of the palm seal of the imperial horse eunuch.

Yisha frowned and said, "What happened?" ”

Liu Yongcheng said: "Cui Yihong, the eunuch of the warrior battalion, got the driving sticker and was taken down by the Jinyi guard. ”

After hearing this, his face suddenly changed, and he looked at Liu Yongcheng with a gloomy look: "Are you sure?" How dare they take the people in the palace? ”

This warrior camp is directly under the control of the eunuchs, and is completely independent of the Governor's Palace.

The eunuchs who can command the warrior camp have always been loyal and reliable, and now they are suddenly taken, which is obviously beyond the imagination of the great eunuchs in the palace like Yishiha and Liu Yongcheng.

Although this little eunuch Cui Yihong is nothing, he is said to be the Admiral Warrior Battalion, but in fact it is only equivalent to the prison army, but his position is very important.

"In what name did you take someone?"

"In the name of the Qin case, I didn't embarrass him, but I just got off the driving sticker and asked him to go to the Imperial Prison for a cup of tea. Cui Yihong was outside the palace, and he didn't know what was going on, thinking that Jinyiwei was acting in accordance with the holy order, so he honestly complied. ”

Yishaha's gaze became more and more calm, and he smiled: "Okay, very good." This Ji Gang is really a good means, and our family admires him. ”

Liu Yongcheng is good at arching horses, but he is far inferior to Yishu in scheming, and he was confused at this time, so he was puzzled: "What does the grand duke mean?" ”

Yisha said lightly: "Ji Gang is a person...... In the past, he was close to King Han, and His Majesty knew everything about it, but His Majesty still needed to rely on him, and he had been a detective for so many years, and His Majesty could not easily replace him. ”

After a pause, Yisha continued: "So in the palace, we have intentions here...... Push Your Majesty to set up a yamen in the palace that can control the brocade guards, this matter...... We have mentioned it to Your Majesty a few times, and Your Majesty also has this meaning, after all...... After all, His Majesty's greatest trust is still the people in our palace. ”

Liu Yongcheng said: "We don't know these things. ”

He had some reproach.

Yishaha comforted him and said: "This kind of thing is not your strength, your strength is the marching formation, and after telling you, you don't have any interest, we will discuss it with Hou Xian." But now we can be sure of two things. ”

"Two things?"

Yisha said calmly: "One of them is that Ji Gang is in the palace, and he also has his eyes and ears, and maybe, it is the people around us, or even around His Majesty." ”

After a pause, he continued: "The second one: that is, Ji Gang will not be reconciled...... The brocade guards that have been built with great work have been over, and we will control them. He finally took advantage of this case and began to fight back. ”

"Fight back?" Liu Yongcheng said in surprise: "What did he fight back?" ”

Yi Shuha had no choice but to smile bitterly, to be honest, the eunuch has reached the level of Liu Yongcheng, and he can still gain the trust of His Majesty, and entrust him to be in charge of the imperial horse prison, which can be regarded as Liu Yongcheng's ancestral tomb has smoke.

Yishu said: "We have a new yamen in the inner court, what is the only excuse to control the Jinyi guard?" ”

Liu Yongcheng said: "Naturally, Your Majesty trusts us, when Jing was in trouble, we followed Your Majesty, and over the years, we have naturally been diligent and loyal." ”

Yi Chuan said: "That's right, that Ji Gang, he has a wife and a concubine, a son and a daughter, and he can't serve His Majesty in the palace at any time, but we are different, we have nothing, and the only thing we can rely on is the emperor." To be precise, this emperor is our monarch and our father, except for Your Majesty, what else can we rely on? If Your Majesty wants to build a new yamen, it must be because we are loyal and reliable. ”

Yisha patiently continued to explain to Liu Yongcheng: "And Ji Gang, if you want to fight back against us and let our hopes be disappointed, it's simple, as long as you ...... From among us, find a chaotic party, which proves that even those of us who are around His Majesty are unreliable, then the matter of building a new government will not be possible. ”

Liu Yongcheng suddenly realized, and immediately said angrily: "I see, Cui Yihong in the warrior camp is really not a chaotic party, it is simply Ji Gang, a brute, who wants to take this opportunity to ruin our reputation." How can this be reasonable, let's go to see Your Majesty and tell Ji Gang fiercely. ”

Yisha shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I can't go." ”

Liu Yongcheng was surprised and said, "Why? ”

also lost his move: "I can't go now, you know the means of this Jinyiwei, since you chose Cui Yihong, it must be that Cui Yihong also has some irregularities, and if you find a mistake, it is enough to confirm the evidence." And if we go to sue at this time, we will become a cover-up. ”

"Do you just let Ji Gang act arbitrarily like this?"

Yisha looked extraordinarily calm: "The more this time, the more we don't panic, otherwise, nothing can be done." ”

As he spoke, he sat down, took a sip of tea, and said in a deep voice: "Think about it, Cui Yihong...... On weekdays...... What's wrong with it? ”

"This ...... He...... He loves to drink and ...... Some money-hungry ......"

Yishaha's face turned cold, and he pointed at Liu Yongcheng and said, "You, you, such a person, you actually put him in the warrior camp?" ”

"Let's ...... Let's ......" Liu Yongcheng wanted to explain something, and finally said dejectedly: "He is our godson." ”

Yi Lost: "......"

…………

In prison.

Wailing and wailing.

Ji Gang was holding the tea cup, smiling, and looking at his masterpiece in front of him.

Whenever this naked eunuch howled, Ji Gang had an inexplicable excitement.

He had to keep drinking tea to extinguish the fire in his heart.

A few brocade-clothed guard captains, holding small pliers, continued to tear off the flesh of the eunuch little by little.

The eunuch was already drenched in blood, and he screamed, as if he had lost his mind, and muttered, "It's not me, it's not me......"

At this moment, Ji Gang stood up and said, "It's not you, why are you hiding so much gold and silver?" When you are on an errand in the palace, you have a number of monthly salaries. And your brother, who is out of business, is in such close contact with the generals of the warrior battalion on weekdays, what is the matter? ”

"Once, when you drank with a man, you said to him...... This warrior camp is your surname Cui, and if you teach them how to do it, they will do it. These...... Surely there is. Besides...... In your brother's house, he searched and found the things of the court of the former Yuan, where did he come from? ”

He said slowly, looking at the eunuch in front of him with a smile: "What do you think...... At this time, someone will come to save you? Scold...... Don't be delusional. If I dare to invite you here, I will make sure that you go out sideways! Oh, besides you, there are also your brothers, and several of your nephews, I have heard that before you entered the palace, when you were young, there was a good woman, and now although she is married, you are kind to her......"

Ji Gang looked at Cui Yihong calmly and said, "This woman ...... Don't worry, I and the Upper and Lower Brothers of Wei Zhong will take care of her. ”

Cui Yihong screamed: "Ji Gang, you don't have to die well." ”

Ji Gang ignored his scolding, but said word by word: "Hey, your little nephew is only four years old, it's a pity at such an age." Can you bear to let him suffer as much as you do? There are some things that you can't explain clearly, if you don't explain them again, how can I return to Your Majesty? Anyway, say it, at least you can leave a whole corpse. ”

Cui Yihong whined and cried, and then gritted his teeth and said, "My godfather will never let you go." ”

Ji Gang didn't have the slightest expression on his face: "Your godfather is too stupid, the only one in this palace who has the ability...... Eunuchs are not your godfathers. My patience has reached the limit, and I ask you again......"

Cui Yihong gritted his teeth and said, "You kill us, kill us." ”

Ji Gang didn't say anything again, but hurriedly paced out.

Out of the torture chamber.

Ji Gang's face was gloomy, and Liu Xiang, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, came in a hurry, and said in a low voice: "Take this Cui Yihong, will those who have no eggs in the palace ......?"

"We're working on the Qin case, what are we afraid of?" Ji Gang's face still didn't have much emotion, but he said in a leisurely tone: "Anyone involved in the Qin case should not want to go out." After all, this is just a slave in the palace, nothing more. ”

After a pause, Ji Gang glanced at Liu Xiang deeply, and then said: "When Your Majesty rebuilt the Jinyi Guard, it was a few of our brothers who pulled this Jinyi Guard up with one hand, but those guys who had no eggs made a stumbling block in front of Your Majesty, wanting to lie on top of you and me, and be the emperor!" ”

"Hey...... They thought it well, but it's a pity...... I'm not a vegetarian either! Up and down, they are all our own brothers, everyone eats meat together, drinks together, and lives a good life together, if those eunuchs come, will you be okay?"

Liu Xiang listened and nodded fiercely: "I know it, if you don't kill these geldings, we have worked in vain all these years." ”

Ji Gang didn't say anything else, but said: "Within today, I want to confess, the confession must be detailed, not only this Cui Yihong has to confess, but also his brother, and other military attaches involved!" His Majesty is not a fool, and the general confession is perfunctory. ”

Liu Xiang cheered up: "Big brother, don't worry, we have been doing everything properly for so many years." ”

Ji Gang bowed his head and walked away.

The Jinyiwei at this time was different from the Jinyiwei in other periods of the Ming Dynasty.

After Zhu Di entered Beijing, in order to suppress the remnants of Jianwen, he instructed Ji Gang and others to rebuild the Jinyi Guard, which can be said to be almost built by Ji Gang. All the people up and down are all pulled by him, these people are in a close relationship with him, and the entire Jinyiwei is almost an iron bucket.

Sure enough, it was the next day.

Ji Gang entered the palace.

Walk to the outside of the martial tower.

Yisha saw Ji Gang and smiled slightly.

Ji Gang also stepped forward with a smile, clasped his fists and saluted: "Grand Duke, Your Majesty ...... today." What's the mood? ”

"It's fine." Yisha said affectionately: "Commander Ji, you have worked really hard these days. ”

"Hard?"

Yisha said: "We see that you are tired, but I am afraid that you will be anxious about the Qin case." ”

"There is the concern of Father-in-law Lao." Ji Gang said: "Where the responsibility is, sometimes it does take a little effort, but there is no way. ”

Yisha patted him on the shoulder: "It's not easy, it's not easy!" Go and see Your Majesty, Your Majesty will miss you. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, like old friends for many years, and joined forces in the martial arts.

Zhu Di sat high, but looked at Ji Gang with a straight face: "How is it?" ”

After Ji Gang saluted, he said, "Your Majesty...... The minister knew that he was wrong, and although the person arrested a few days ago was suspicious, he was ...... after all. Many of them are innocent, and the lowly ones have let people go, and there are a few left, and they really can't clear their suspicions...... The humble is worried about letting the tiger return to the mountain...... Venture...... Stayed. ”

Zhu Di nodded lightly: "Do you have new eyebrows?" ”

"Yes." Ji Gang stepped forward and took out a confession, and then handed it to Yishiha.

Yisha took the confession and carefully sent it to Zhu Di's imperial case.

Zhu Di took it, opened it, looked down, and his face moved slightly: "Cui Yihong, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison?" ”

Ji Gang said: "The evidence is like a mountain, and it is humble...... Don't dare not ignore it, if Your Majesty thinks there is anything wrong with being inferior......"

Zhu Di waved his hand and looked at the past carefully.

This confession is full of thousands of words, including Cui Yihong's confession and his brother Cui Sanxi's confession.

In addition, there were several military attaches from the warrior battalion, and even raided Cui Sanxi's house.

Zhu Di looked at the paintings one by one, and looked at the confessions one by one.

It seemed a little incredulous, so after comparing it again, he put down the confession, looked up at Ji Gang, and said, "The eunuchs in the palace, why do they have anything to do with the Northern Yuan?" ”

"Your Majesty, someone pulled him into the water, and his brother Cui Sanxi ......"

Zhu Di frowned: "I have already read the report, what I mean is ...... Is it just this pair of brothers, and is there no one else? ”

This seems to be in the heart of Ji Gang: "The minister is still investigating thoroughly, but these people are acting very treacherously, and it has been a lot of effort to find Cui Yihong." ”

Zhu Di snorted coldly: "Warrior camp...... Hmph, this is the warrior camp, the warrior camp is like this, that's worth it! ”

Ji Gang was busy bowing to the ground, and said in fear: "Humble to death, I am the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but I can't notice it in advance, so that the thief appeared under His Majesty's nose, and he was humble...... Ten thousand deaths. ”

Yisha looked at everything in front of him coldly, and at this time, he ...... He had to admire Ji Gang.

The fear that Ji Gang showed in front of Zhu Di was precisely the root of His Majesty's trust in Ji Gang.

Your Majesty is a person...... He has always believed in himself, and he is confident in people like Ji Gang...... In front of himself, he is just an ant, as long as he frowns slightly, he can scare Ji Gang to the core, and it is precisely because of this self-confidence that Zhu Di feels that Ji Gang will never dare to deceive himself.

Ji Gang very cleverly grasped His Majesty's psychology as a cover, which can be said to have penetrated His Majesty's mind.

Zhu Di said lightly: "Investigate thoroughly!" ”

"Whoa."

………………

Qi Xia rang out a cannon.

Soon, the five congs in the capital gathered.

Of course, there is another yuan in Annam, which will not come.

Zhang Anshi was triumphant at this time, and said happily: "Brothers, today's eldest brother...... After a lot of hard work, I finally caught a chaotic party and brought all the guys...... Go with the eldest brother, listen to the orders of the eldest brother, and be sure to protect the eldest brother...... No, we must not let that chaotic party run away. ”

Zhu Yong: "......"

Zhang Xuan: "......"

Qiu Song's eyes lit up, and he patted his belly proudly.

Half an hour later.

Military Department ......

Chen Wenjun, the head of the military department, was on duty, and he was just about to get into a sedan chair at this time.

Suddenly, I heard someone behind me shouting, "Hold him." ”

As soon as the order was given, two figures were seen outflanking from the left and right.

Immediately afterwards, he began to punch and kick Chen Wenjun.

At this time, many ministers of the military department came out of the ministry.

Then, they saw the unbelievable.

Chen Wenjun, a colleague wearing a winged hat and an official robe, was pressed to the ground, beaten for a while, and let out a howl like killing a pig.

Someone was furious: "He is small, dare to commit murder here." ”

Zhang Anshi hurriedly came out with ten or eight people who protected him, and said stupidly: "Catch the party, catch the party, I'm sorry, I disturbed you, don't be surprised, next time I must inform you in advance, so as not to disturb you, next time I will definitely ......"

“……”

In everyone's astonishment.

Zhang Anshi had already rushed up, grabbed Chen Wenjun, who was beaten on the ground and had a blue nose and swollen face, and shouted: "Join your mother, you dog thief, I finally found you, I, Zhang Anshi, am law-abiding, you fucking dare to rebel!" ”
