The 169th target, Nanjing!

Gao Hub suddenly realized that things might be much more serious than he thought.

Otherwise, Belin would not have been able to arrest a prefect casually.

What's more, Yu Qian is still here, although this guy is smelly and weekdays, and even a little unkind, but he will never bend the law for personal gain and let Belin arrest people indiscriminately.

Thinking of this, he asked: "Yu Qian, come on, can the emperor know about the affairs of Huai'an Mansion?" ”

Yu Qian nodded and said, "The emperor not only knows, but it can be said that everything that happens here is from the emperor's instructions. ”

Gao Hub's heart was cold, his eldest nephew was involved in the rebellion, how can this be good?

If it's something else, even if someone dies, just say hello to the below, spend some silver at most, and you can always settle the matter.

However, if you rebel...... I'm afraid I'll accidentally put myself in!

"Since the two of them have something to do, the old man will not bother, if the nephew is really having an affair with the thief, the old man will never cover it up, Lord Yu and Lord Pei will deal with it impartially!"

After speaking, Gao Hub was ready to leave, and in this situation, it was better to choose yourself first, and I couldn't take care of it......

"Tall and slow!"

Belin suddenly stopped in front of Gao Hub, and then smiled politely.

Although Gao Hub was reluctant, he had to smile and ask, "What advice does Master Pei have?" ”

"I'm afraid that the tall man is...... I can't go anywhere for the time being. ”

"What did you say?"

Gao Han's face was gloomy again, and killing intent appeared in his eyes.

Bei Lin was not afraid at all, looked directly into Gao Yu's eyes, and said: "The lower official is acting according to orders, and I ask Lord Gao to cooperate!" ”

"Ordered?" Gao Hub snorted coldly and said, "When did the emperor order to investigate the old man?" If you take out the holy decree today, the old man will dispose of it at your disposal, and if you can't take it out, don't blame the old man for treating you for the crime of disrespecting the chief and abusing your power! ”

"The lower officials are ordered to investigate the White Lotus Sect's rebellion, and all the people involved in the eucalyptus must be strictly investigated, since the tall man is also involved, don't blame the lower officials for being rude!"

Gao Hub said angrily: "Ridiculous! When did the old man get involved with the White Lotus Sect's anti-thieves? ”

Belin was neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "Over the years, the White Lotus Sect has sent a lot of silver to Gao Xu, all of which are well documented, and Gao Xu divided these silver into five and took out half of it to send it to Jingshi, you won't forget it, right?" ”

"Impossible, never!"

"Is there any, you will know it after checking, please cooperate with Lord Gao!"

Gao Hub's face darkened, and he said coldly: "What if the old man doesn't cooperate?" ”

"Then don't blame the subordinate for being rude, come on, please talk to Lord Gao in a different place!"

Gao Hub was angry and looked at Yu Qian: "Yu Qian, you just watched this person do nothing?" ”

Yu Qian looked apologetic and said, "I can't hide it, Yu someone's duty is to govern the river, as for other things...... I don't have the right to ask. ”

"You ......"

Gao Hub is very angry, anyway, we are also colleagues in the cabinet, can you help me say something?

After Yu Qian finished speaking, he stood up and clenched his fists to signal: "You guys chat, goodbye!" ”

"Hey, don't go......"

Gao Hub was shocked, as soon as Yu Qian left, wouldn't he be even more finished?

Yu Qian walked a few steps, and turned around to apologize: "It is Belin who is responsible for the rebellion, and I only govern the river, this ...... I'm really sorry about the responsibilities......"

After finishing speaking, he walked away on his own, leaving Gao Hub with a confused face.

What's the situation......

I am a cabinet scholar, and I finally came out for a trip, but I somehow became a fellow anti-thief?

Is there still a royal law, is there still a law......

…………

On the outskirts of Nanjing, Meilin Yayuan.

Mei Lin Rongtie blushed and looked at Yang Xiong in front of him.

"Didn't you make a military order, what do you say that you will make Huai'an Mansion dark, hehe, now it is indeed dark, this seat has worked hard to operate the Huai'an rudder for more than ten years, and it was disturbed by you like this, thanks to the careful cultivation of you over the years, this is how you give back to this seat?"

Book of Hundred Leagues

Yang Xiong was covered in cold sweat, kowtowing like pounding garlic: "My subordinates are not doing things well, please ask the master to punish them!" ”

The White Lotus Sect is not a charity, and here, there is a penalty for doing something wrong.

If it is light, it will cut its nose and gouge out its eyes, and if it is serious, your life will be worried!

Although Yang Xiong is Mei Linrong's most proud protΓ©gΓ© and the second-in-command of the White Lotus Sect, he also feels fear from the bottom of his heart for this sect leader and master.

You must know that the sect leader is the sworn enemy of the court, but being able to hide in the court is a great thing in itself.

In the sect, Mei Lin Rong is the emperor, and no one dares to refute what he says.

Over the years, he has seen with his own eyes that many people have taken their lives just because they said the wrong thing or done the wrong thing, and their deaths were extremely miserable.

Merlin Rong slowly closed his eyes, he needed to think now.

After so long of careful preparation, the arrow is already on the string, will it be sent or not?

According to the plan, the turmoil in Huai'an Mansion was mainly to drag down the troops south of the Huai River, especially the guards in Shandong, and when the imperial court was busy, how could they have expected that their real purpose was Nanjing City!

However, now that Huai'an Mansion's plan has failed, it has failed to mobilize the people, but instead has taken the rudder of his own painstaking operation for more than ten years.

You must know that Huai'an is a good place, and the silver earned by Lichun Courtyard every year is almost catching up with the taxes of the entire Huai'an Mansion.

Losing the Huai'an rudder is equivalent to breaking an arm, and when I think of those white flowers, my heart can't help but drip blood.

Now I have two choices in front of me, one is to cancel all the plans and lie dormant.

In this way, all the manpower and material resources invested in these years will come to naught, and the Japanese will inevitably break off their cooperation with themselves, lose the support of external forces, which is equivalent to losing the sea trade, losing the source of silver, and not knowing when they will be able to make a comeback.

Second, it was to take advantage of the imperial court to catch the thieves in Huai'an Mansion, and according to the original plan, raid Nanjing City.

This may sound like a risky plan, but it may not be impossible.

Because according to common sense, the imperial court wanted the White Lotus Sect in Huai'an Mansion with great fanfare, but it was never expected that the real main force of the White Lotus Sect was quietly lurking in Nanjing City.

The only thing to worry about is the speed of the soldiers and horses from all walks of life returning to Nanjing City.

As long as the imperial court soldiers and horses return to help, it is still very promising to take Nanjing, and then throw out the guise of a descendant of Jianwen, occupy half of the country, and rule the orthodox emperor in Beijing.

"Sect Master, my subordinates also learned about something, but they couldn't figure it out......"

Merlin Rong closed his eyes and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Yang Xiong hurriedly said: "Before my subordinates left Huai'an, I learned that Gao Hub, a scholar from the current dynasty, had come to Huai'an. ”

Mei Linrong slowly opened his eyes and asked, "What is he doing in Huai'an, is he provincial?" ”

"My subordinates don't know!"

Yang Xiong shook his head and continued: "Over the years, his nephew Gao Xu has been messing around in Lichun Courtyard, it is said that when the official mission sealed Lichun Courtyard, Gao Xu was drinking with Huang Li, the prefect of Huai'an, but that Belin rushed in and arrested both of them. ”

"The prefect of Huai'an was also arrested?"

"Exactly!" Yang Xiong nodded and said, "Not only that, but after Gao Hub came, it seemed to be ...... Also caught......"

Merlin Rong was surprised: "What did you say? Gao Hub was also arrested? ”

"The subordinates also thought it was incredible, Gao Hub was a scholar of the court, how could he be arrested by a deputy supervisor of Qin Tianjian? No matter how you look at it, it's not in accordance with the rules! ”

"Isn't Yu Qian governing the river in Huai'an Mansion, he doesn't care about this?"

"It's strange here, that Belin saw who arrested whom, whether it was the prefect or the minister, they were all arrested, but Yu Qian never showed up, and it seemed that he didn't want to meddle in this matter at all."

"Strange ......"

Mei Linrong frowned, thought for a long time, and asked again, "What is Gao Hub doing in Huai'an?" ”

"The subordinates can't figure it out, before, there was no information in the Jingshi, it seems that this person came in a hurry, not like he went home to save his relatives."

It is a big deal for the cabinet university to go out of Beijing, and the White Lotus Sect has eyeliner in the capital, if it is usual, when he learns such news, he will definitely send it out as soon as possible.

It seems that Yang Xiong is right, Gao Hub's decision to leave Beijing should be made temporarily, so no news has been revealed.

"Old man......"

At this time, a voice came from outside the door.

Yang Xiong immediately became vigilant, but Mei Linrong waved his hand at him, and said in a low voice: "Don't be nervous, it's the subordinate of this seat, Wang Qinghai." ”

After finishing speaking, he coughed lightly and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

I only heard Wang Qinghai say outside the door: "There are guests asking to see!" ”

Mei Lin Rong said impatiently: "If there is something today, no one will see it!" ”

"This person is Miss Song, look ......"

Mei Lin Rong and Yang Xiong glanced at each other and immediately said, "Let her in!" ”

"Yes!"

Yang Xiong asked, "Sect Master, why is she here?" ”

Mei Lin Rong said: "This guess may be related to Gao Hub's itinerary. ”

While the two were talking, Song Gu Xi entered the backyard and leaned down to worship.

"See the Holy Sect Master, I've seen Yang Protector!"

Yang Xiong immediately asked, "Miss Song, you are not in Beijing to spy on intelligence, what are you doing in Nanjing suddenly?" ”

Song Gu Xi said: "It is precisely because there is important information that there is no delay, so I made an initiative to leave Beijing." ”

"Oh?" Yang Xiong frowned and asked, "What happened?" ”

"Big deal!" Song Gu Xi's injuries on his body had not healed yet, and he walked in a hurry all the way, taking a few breaths and breathing a little easier, and then said, "The emperor has come to Nanjing!" ”

"What did you say?"

Yang Xiong was shocked and asked, "Who did you say came to Nanjing?" ”

"The emperor, who came secretly, no one knew about it in advance, and even the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were hidden from him for a long time!"

Mei Lin Rong couldn't help but ask: "The emperor is not in Jingshi, and no one has found out?" ”

"Master of Islam, this emperor does not go to court on weekdays, and the major affairs of the court are taken care of by the king and the cabinet, therefore, the emperor secretly ran out, and no one knew at the time, and when he found out, he thought that the emperor went to Mobei, and Zhang Yi, a scholar of the cabinet university, and Kuang Yu, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, took people to chase for a long time, only to find that the emperor did not go to Mobei at all, but came to Nanjing."

"Is the information reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable!"

Mei Linrong paced back and forth a few steps, and muttered in his mouth: "In this way, it makes sense that Gao Hub suddenly came to Nanjing, but ......"

Yang Xiong asked again: "What is the emperor doing in Nanjing?" ”

Song Guxi shook his head and said, "I don't know!" ”

As he spoke, Song Guxi snorted lightly, covering his lower abdomen, his willow eyebrows slightly frowned.

Yang Xiong seemed to think of something and asked, "I heard that you were injured when you assassinated the emperor?" ”

Song Gu Xi secretly said in his heart, he pierced it himself, and by the way, he put the charge on your head!

"Thank you for your concern, it's just a skin injury, it's not in the way!"

Mei Lin Rong thought for a long time, and then said: "It seems that the orthodox emperor is a little bold, and he dared to trespass into Nanjing without seeing the transfer of soldiers and horses, since the matter has come to this, there is nothing to say, Yang Xiong, you go and contact the three-headed Jiao, and implement it according to the original plan!" ”

"Yes!"

"Take care of it!"

"Ask the Lord for your command!"

"There is no news of the emperor's arrival in Nanjing City, and this seat infers that he must have concealed his whereabouts, guess where he is now?"

"Perhaps...... Hiding in an inn somewhere and watching what happens? ”

"Quite possibly!" Mei Linrong nodded and said, "You go into the city now and find him!" ”

"Yes!"

Mei Lin Rong let out a sigh of relief and said: "There is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village, I thought that the situation was unfavorable for me, but I didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor would send it to the door himself, God really helped me!" ”

Yang Xiong asked again: "Sect Master, Huai'an Mansion has a lot of manpower, according to the advice of his subordinates, the Sect Leader and others still need to make all preparations, and when the Japanese invade Nanjing, they must not be allowed to rebel against them." ”

"Don't worry, this seat has its own plans, they are just a group of mercenaries, and they can't make a big deal!"

In his plan, he couldn't be the master of Nanjing City, because his name was not good.

This position needs a person surnamed Zhu to do it, and when the time comes, just find someone at random, just say that it is the descendant of Jianwen, and put it in front as a puppet, but in fact, he will control the power by himself, isn't it beautiful!

As for the Wakos, they are just a group of outlaws, and when the time comes, give some rewards first, and then find a reason to get rid of them.

After Song Gu agreed, he took advantage of the fact that it was still early and entered Nanjing City.

She first came to an inn, and Xiaohua had been waiting for a long time.

"Are you ready for everything I want?"

Xiaohua replied: "It's all here." ”

Coarse cloth clothes, flour, human skin masks, fake beards......

Half an hour later, Song Guxi and Xiaohua dressed up as two middle-aged men, walked around the street a few times, and made sure that no one was following, and then walked into a house.

But they didn't know that behind them, there was a pair of eyes, staring at their every move from beginning to end.
