Chapter 123: The Emperor's Means
Before dawn, the gate of the Wenhua Hall creaked open, and two small yellow doors walked out with lanterns, and Jia Lian walked up the steps sweating profusely in the governance of Shuntian Mansion, and Dong Shan, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace, greeted him.
Jia Lian asked urgently: "What about the prince?" ”
Dong Shan: "In the study, the second assistant and the Taibao are there. ”
In the study room of the Wenhua Palace, Liu Wenbin, the deputy assistant of the cabinet, and Niu Jizong, the crown prince, sat on the chairs in front of the window with gloomy faces.
The crown prince Zhu Wucheng hurried back and forth angrily, walked to the door and stopped, turned around again, gritted his teeth and said, "This thing must have been done by the Warat people!" No way! Immediately let the Imperial Forest Army enter the city, and the whole city was searched, and the palace did not believe that they could not be caught. ”
Liu Wenbin: "The transfer of troops into the city must have His Majesty's handwriting. ”
Niu Jizong stood up and said, "When I entered the palace, I met Feng Tang, the general of Shenwu, and I saw that his face was very bad, so something should have happened." ”
Zhu Wucheng was stunned and asked urgently: "Do you know what happened?" ”
Liu Wenbin also raised his head in surprise.
Niu Jizong sighed, "I don't know, but it must have something to do with Dongchang, I saw a team of fans escorting hundreds of forbidden soldiers to the detention center, it should be that they saw something they shouldn't see." ”
Zhu Wucheng was reminded, and he was even more shocked, and immediately said, "That's right! There was a distress signal in the direction of Xishi, could it be related to this incident? ”
Liu Wenbin pondered for a moment, and then sighed helplessly, "This matter has nothing to do with us, otherwise Your Majesty would have summoned you a long time ago, and I don't know what happened to the granary?" Whether we can afford the losses caused is that I am worried that it will affect our next plans! ”
At this time, Dong Shan's voice came from outside the door, "Prince Qiqi, someone from Shuntian Mansion has come, it is Jia Lian in Zhizhong, who said that he was ordered by Zhang Jiacheng of the Mansion to report the situation of the granary in Dongcheng to His Royal Highness." ”
"Let him in."
"Yes."
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
After a while, Jia Lian hurriedly came in and respectfully saluted Zhu Wucheng.
"No need to be polite."
Zhu Wucheng waved his hand, "Come on, how is the granary?" ”
"After more than an hour of rescue, the fire has been basically extinguished, but..."
"It's not your responsibility to say anything directly."
Jia Lian's heart was relieved when he heard this, and he raised his head slightly and glanced at Niu Jizong gratefully.
Liu Wenbin: "Let's just say it." ”
"Yes."
Jia Lian took a deep breath, and then said: "In the entire Dongcheng grain depot, only the two granaries closest to the northeast are intact, and the rest of the more than forty granaries of all sizes have been burned, nearly half of them have been burned, and some have been burned in half, which should be able to rescue some of the grain." It is estimated that the loss is as high as more than 60% ....."
Zhu Wucheng's face became difficult to look at again, "Have you caught the murderer?" ”
"There is no living mouth, judging by the appearance of the body, it is a prairie person."
Hearing this, the crown prince Zhu Wucheng looked at Jia Lian with dissatisfaction, Liu Wenbin stood up and said, "There are still more than 100,000 stone of grain left, which is already a blessing in misfortune." The person must still be in Dongcheng, this matter must be investigated quickly! Prince, hurry up and ask for a decree! ”
Niu Jizong: "Let's calm down." If something so big happens, the city gate will definitely not be opened on time, and now the East City side has been besieged by the forbidden army and the Soldiers and Horses, and it will not be able to escape. ”
As soon as the words fell, Dong Shan walked in quickly, and said urgently: "Your Majesty has a decree, His Royal Highness Xuan, the second assistant and the Taibao will go to the study to discuss matters..."
Speaking of this, he looked at Jia Lian again, "Jia Zhizhong together!" ”
“.....”
Jia Lian was stunned.
Niu Jizong's face changed.
Zhu Wucheng and Liu Wenbin were both shocked.
..........
In the duty room of the Zhengyang Gate Control Army, Shenwu General Feng Tang slammed an official document to the ground!
Standing in front of him was Huang Jin, the master of ceremonies.
Feng Tang: "If I don't sign it!" ”
Huang Jin sneered, "Don't sign? Miscellaneous family persuaded the general to focus on the overall situation! Otherwise.... Hehe! ”
Feng Tang was stunned, and immediately became angry, patted the eucalyptus a few times and scolded: "Dog thing without eggs, you dare to threaten me!" ”
Huang Jin's face darkened for a moment, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately solemnized his face: "Your Majesty has a will, and Shenwu General Feng Tang listens to it." ”
As he spoke, he walked to the top of the north face and stood still.
Feng Tang's face tightened, and he immediately turned to the south and knelt down.
Huang Jin took out the holy decree from his sleeve, "Shenwu General Feng Tang is the chief soldier of Henan, and the decree is to set off immediately!" ”
Feng Tang was taken aback, and it took a long time before he replied: "The minister's decree!" ”
After announcing the decree, Huang Jin bent down and picked up the official document, "General Feng, sign it!" ”
Feng Tang finished reading the holy decree in his hand, stood there blankly, heard the words, raised his head and looked at Huang Jin, "He.... Where did they go? ”
Huang Jin looked at him coldly, "Naturally, I went where I should go." ”
Feng Tang's face was as white as paper, full of sadness, yes, the dignified son of heaven did such a thing, he would definitely not leave a living mouth, if he didn't kill himself, it would cause the court to shake.... Pick up the brush and sign your name on the official document unfolded by Huang Jin.
Huang Jin smiled, "It's almost dawn, and there is a team of Dongchang soldiers outside the door who will escort you to Henan to take office." ”
Feng Tang nodded silently, put away the holy decree, and walked out with his feet raised.
"Wait!"
Huang Jin's voice came from behind, "Chief soldier Feng, don't do stupid things, so many people in the Feng family are counting on you." ”
Feng Tang turned around with a fierce light in his eyes, "You dare to threaten me!" ”
Huang Jin: "The miscellaneous family is also acting on orders. ”
"Don't talk about Your Majesty!"
Feng Tang was finally enraged, he grabbed it, grabbed Huang Jin's neck with his five fingers, and smashed Huang Jin's face with a punch, and then kicked him into the corner of the wall with a kick, smashing the tables and chairs.
"Ahem!
”
Huang Jin coughed up blood at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of anger and fear.
The corners of Feng Tang's mouth hooked up with a sneer, grabbed Huang Jin's neck, and lifted him up, "Remember, you are just a dog raised by His Majesty, believe it or not, I will kill you now and go to Henan safely to take office!" ”
As he spoke, he casually threw Huang Jin on the ground and dusted off the non-existent dust on his body, "Don't think about revenge on the Feng family, otherwise Your Majesty will kill you first." With that, he walked straight out.
"You!"
Huang Jin was unwilling, his eyes were almost splitting, and he understood that what Feng Tang said was true.
.........
In the Dongchang Arrest Center, there are corpses everywhere in the small courtyard, and the dead are all forbidden soldiers who were beheaded with their hands tied behind their backs.
Under the light of the torches, you can clearly see the blood flowing on the ground into a small river, slowly flowing down the sewer, the air exudes a strong smell of blood, at this time, two Dongchang fans are pushing a cart out, stacked on top of more than a dozen corpses, all dressed in night clothes, the top one is the head of the East Factory.
In the upper study, Emperor Tianyou held a red pen in his hand and wrote quickly on a goose-yellow fold.
"Your Majesty, General Feng has already left, and everything has been dealt with!"
Dai Quan walked in quickly and whispered.
"How is Huang Jin's injury?"
Emperor Tianyou didn't look up, and continued to write quickly.
"Don't get in the way, Mr. Feng didn't make a heavy hand."
Hearing this, Emperor Tianyou paused the red pen in his hand, looked up at Dai Quan, and said, "I hope this is the last time." ”
Dai Quan was stunned for a moment, then knelt down, "The old slave should die!" Damn the old slave! As he spoke, he raised his hand, bowed left and right in his face, and slapped him.
After a while, Emperor Tianyou put down the red pen and gently blew the ink on the fold, and then spoke, "You go to the internal official prison to get the medicine, and personally send it to Huang Jin, just say my words, good slave." ”
At this time, Dai Quan's cheeks were already red and swollen, and he hurriedly kowtowed, "The old slave will do it." Then he half stood up, bowed and withdrew.
The crown prince Zhu Wucheng and the others happened to walk under the stone steps, and when they saw this, they were shocked, and stood there and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Dai Quan's head hung down quickly, shook at Zhu Wucheng, and then walked away quickly.
