The sky will be clear.

The snow was heavy and white everywhere, and the flying snow covered the sky with a group of more than 30 horsemen marching the snowy official road, and a carriage was escorted in the middle of the cavalry team.

In the carriage, the Jinyi guard commanded Ma Shun to sit cross-legged with his eyes closed, the beard on his face also grew out, and the wind outside the car swept into his ears one after another.

This time, he traveled through half of the Ming Dynasty, and finally found some clues, and he also had an explanation for the errand of Emperor Tianyou, thinking of this, he tightened the cloak on his body.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped with a "stuck".

Ahead, another carriage stopped in the middle of the official road, blocking the way.

The two brocade-clad guards riding in front looked at each other alertly, and then galloped over together.

"What's going on? Early in the morning? Get out of the way! ”

The coachman in the carriage sat there motionless with his head bowed, as if he had not heard of it.

The two brocade-clad guards became more alert, and they quickly glanced at each other again, and both of them reached out at the same time to hold the hilt of the knife. @精华\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~

At this moment, the two found a pool of blood under the driver in front of the car, and they were shocked and pulled out the knife together.

With a bang, the brocade guards behind also pulled out their waist knives together!

Deathly silence!

A team of brocade-clothed guards protected Ma Shun's carriage, and Baihu led a team of people to run over.

"Look, my lord."

The hundred households looked at it, their faces immediately darkened, and with a wave of their hands, the four Jinyi guard captains turned over and dismounted, and walked over with knives.

"Dead man! There's a dead man here! A brocade guard lieutenant screamed.

"There's a dead man here, too!" There was also a scream from the other side of the carriage.

The hundred households turned over and dismounted, walked over, glanced at it quickly, and frowned.

The snowdrifts on either side of the carriage turned out to be the bodies of two Dongchang fans.

The eyes of the hundred households slowly moved to the carriage, hesitated for a moment, opened the thick car curtain with a knife, and suddenly opened their eyes wide, stunned.

At this time, a Jinyi guard captain came over and reported: "Hundreds of households, two more corpses of Dongchang Fanzi were found in front, and they should have tried to escape." ”

Baihu came to his senses at this time, and glanced at Jia Jing, who had been dead for a long time, but his eyes were still open, his eyes were wide with anger, as if he had seen something incredible before he died, and there was a wound on his chest that pierced his heart, a knife wound.

Several Jinyi Guard captains also gathered around after inspecting the surroundings, and one of the captains blurted out: "Jia Jing?!" ”

The hundred households ignored it, turned around and walked straight to Ma Shun's frame.

"My lord, something is wrong! The deceased was Dongchang Fanzi, a total of four, and a coachman, as for the people in the carriage....."

Ma Shun immediately became vigilant and lifted the curtain of the car, "What person?" ”

The hundred households plucked up their courage: "It's Jia Jing." ”

"What, who do you say?" Ma Shun didn't hear clearly for a while.

The hundred households: "Lord Hui, is the father of Jia Zhen, the hereditary third-grade lord of Ningguo Mansion, Jia Jing." ”

Now that he understood, Ma Shun looked ahead blankly, and his face suddenly became cloudy.

It was so quiet on the official road, and all the brocade guards held their breath.

Ma Shun: "Shenjing is going to have a big incident, immediately report the news to the emperor." ”

The hundred households were a little creepy when they heard this, and replied in a trembling voice: "Yes." ”

...........

After a night of heavy snowfall, houses, trees, and streets were covered with a layer of white and thick snow, as if the entire Shenjing was covered with a layer of white sand.

There is no fire in the Heart Cultivation Palace, the windows are still open, the cold wind is coming, it doesn't matter if Chen Ruiwen is a martial artist, Liu Wenbin and Jia Zheng are young and can stand it, but Wen Fangyan is old after all, although he is wearing thick clothes, he still feels that his bones are cold and painful, looking at the empty dragon chair in front of the imperial eucalyptus, maybe it is time to consider returning to his hometown to retire.

"The emperor has arrived!"

I saw Zhu Wucheng enter from the apse of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and walked straight to the front of the Imperial Eucalyptus and sat down.

Wen Fangyan, Liu Wenbin, Chen Ruiwen and Jia Zheng stood up to give a salute. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 194: Jia Jing's Death

, Zhu Wucheng waved his hand and said, "No courtesy!" ”

"Huh?"

Zhu Wucheng frowned slightly, "Close the window and make a fire." ”

"Yes." Dong Shan walked over and closed a few windows, and several small yellow doormen carried in the incense tripods that had been prepared a long time ago, and the open fire was burned with sandalwood inside, and the hall was full of incense, warm as spring.

"In the future, let's light the fire as soon as possible, and if it's cold, you don't have to wait for me."

Dong Shan: "Yes." He glanced at the little yellow doors.

Several small yellow doors retreated.

Dong Shan brought a few bowls of hot tea from the inside, Wen Fangyan drank a few sips, felt relieved, glanced at Liu Wenbin, raised his head and said to Zhu Wucheng: "Your Majesty, the cabinet has discussed with the Ministry of War, and several grassland nobles involved in the Eucalyptus have been decided, and their families have been exiled to Tielingwei. All of their troops were scattered and assigned to Hangai Mountain to participate in the construction of the city, and they could be directly granted a Ming household registration. ”

Jia Zheng stood up, "This is an official document drafted by the Ministry of War. ”

Dong Shan immediately took it and turned around and presented it to Zhu Wucheng.

"There's no hurry."

Dong Shan was stunned for a moment, so he had to put the fold on the royal eucalyptus.

Zhu Wucheng: "Guozhang." ”

Jia Zheng: "The minister is here." ”

"Where's the checklist?"

Jia Zheng was taken aback, and then subconsciously glanced at Chen Ruiwen.

Chen Ruiwen's eyes lit up and he nodded.

Dong Shan walked to Jia Zheng's side, took the list of checks he took out from his sleeve, and turned around and presented it to the royal eucalyptus.

Zhu Wucheng was silent again, and on a thin piece of paper were the names of seven grassland nobles, all of whom made it clear that they were loyal to him, but he couldn't keep them. Zhu Wucheng felt the isolation he had never felt before, which made him uncomfortable and difficult for him to accept.

After churning in his heart for a while, Zhu Wucheng suddenly looked at Dong Shan: "Pen." ”

Dong Shan thickened the pool of vermilion ink, and presented the vermilion pen with both hands. Error-free updates @

Zhu Wucheng took the red pen, swept it in the ink pool, and ticked the names one by one.

Zhu Wucheng slowly looked at Jia Zheng again at this time, and saw that there were two more notes in his hand, so he sneered, "Take everything up!" ”

Jia Zheng was anxious, "Your Majesty ....."

Zhu Wucheng stared at him gloomily: "It has something to do with the Mobei Grassland, right?" ”

"One is related, one is not."

Jia Zheng looked at Zhu Wucheng cautiously.

"Then let's talk about the Mobei grassland."

Jia Zheng: "Yes. This piece was originally delivered by Shi Nai, the chief soldier of Yulin, from Helin on October 20, because the snowstorm hit the entire Mobei grassland, and the 20,000 war horses originally scheduled to be sent to Beijing were postponed until next month. His Majesty promised to allocate 5,000 war horses to Henan Wei, and the Ministry of War agreed to transfer them from the Imperial Forest Army.

In addition, Shi Nai also mentioned the matter of returning to his hometown in the song, most of the Yulin guards are locals, as the New Year approaches, the soldiers often make trouble because of homesickness, and the military is unstable, and this matter needs to be ruled by His Majesty. ”

Zhu Wucheng was stunned, and quickly understood that it should be the Imperial Forest Army that made trouble, because they were all children of good families in Gyeonggi and Shandong, and Yu Linwei did not have the guts!

Thinking that they had been fighting abroad for more than half a year, but they couldn't return to their hometowns for reunion because of their own reasons, they were silent for a moment, and then said in a surging voice: "The barracks is a place where rules are spoken, when can we bargain?" said that half a year of garrison is half a year, and not a single day is missing. However, the weather outside the Seychelles is harsh, and it is not easy for them, so let the household department send them more materials and enrich them, especially when the New Year is approaching. ”

"Yes." Chen Ruiwen stood up.

Zhu Wucheng: "The military department should hurry up and send it urgently for 600 miles." The other one wouldn't be a bad thing, right? Go ahead. ”

Jia Zheng stood up, "Your Majesty, this is a thank you excerpt from the king of Beihai County to your majesty. ”

Zhu Wucheng shuddered.

Wen Fangyan and Liu Wenbin were all taken aback, looked at the fold in Jia Zheng's hand, and looked at Zhu Wucheng together.

Zhu Wucheng was extremely pleased, secretly exhaled, and motioned for Dong Shan to present the fold.

Dong Shan took over the fold from Jia Zheng and presented it to Zhu Wucheng.

Zhu Wucheng took the fold and unfolded it to take a look, with an undisguised look of appreciation on his face. Then put the fold down and say yes to a few people. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 194: Jia Jing's Death

said: "Tomorrow, I will hold a palace banquet to invite the king of Beihai County and other meritorious soldiers, what do you think?" ”

Everyone was stunned!

Wen dialect: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

Liu Wenbin, Chen Ruiwen, and Jia Zheng got up and agreed.

Zhu Wucheng nodded, and then said, "Didn't the Juyong guard return to Beijing to report on his work?" Bring him with you. ”

Dong Shan: "Yes." The old slave must personally go and invite it. ”

As soon as these words came out, several people were stunned, and they immediately had a premonition that this person was going to make some amazing moves.

Sure enough, Zhu Wucheng spoke, "After so many years, he has also worked hard, and it is time to be promoted, well, how about transferring to Shandong?" As for the transfer of Shandong General Soldier Xu Bin to Datong Town, and Datong General Soldier Xiangyang Bo Wang Bin to Xuanfu, what do you think? ”

Chen Ruiwen: "Is it inappropriate for Shandong General Soldier Xu Bin to transfer Datong?" After all, he has no experience in commanding troops....."

Zhu Wucheng said: "The Mobei grassland has become the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and there are more than 100,000 elite troops outside the pass, why do you need him to lead the troops to fight!" ”

Chen Ruiwen had to answer: "Yes....."

At this moment, the voice of Meng Qian, the master of ceremonies, came from outside the main hall, "Your Majesty, the slave has something important to report." ”

Zhu Wucheng: "Come in." ”

The door opened, and a cold wind swept into the hall with a few snowflakes, Meng Qian walked in quickly, and respectfully bowed to Zhu Wucheng, and then said: "Your Majesty, there is news from Xuanzhen Temple, Jia Zhenren did not return to the temple last night. ”

Zhu Wucheng was stunned, "He didn't go out of the city?" ”

Meng Qian: "Out of the city." ”

Zhu Wucheng stood up and asked, "Are you not mistaken?" ”

Meng Qian knelt on his knees and replied solemnly: "If you go back to the emperor, after Jia Zhenren prayed for the blessing of the concubine and the dragon in her belly, the slave personally sent out of the city, and the Shenjing City came out of the west gate at the moment. ”

Suddenly, the door of the palace opened, and the great eunuch on duty at the noon gate rushed in with a gust of cold wind, tripped on the threshold, and rushed to the hall with a rolling belt, and said urgently: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty.... News came from the Fusi of Beizhen that Jia Jing, the father of Jia Zhen, the hereditary general of Ningguo Mansion and the hereditary third rank of the Lord, was killed on the official road at the foot of the West Mountain....."

Deathly silence!

Jia Zheng's face turned white.

Wen Fangyan, Liu Wenbin, and Chen Ruiwen glanced at each other, and they understood that Jia Jing was killed on the way out of the palace to return to Xuanzhenguan, and looking at Zhu Wucheng's demeanor, things must not be simple.

Zhu Wucheng finally spoke, "You guys are so bad!" ”

"Damn it!"

Meng Qian immediately raised his hand and slapped loudly on his still red and swollen face, and then fanned again.

"That's it." Zhu Wucheng stopped him.

"The slave is guilty of death, please ask the emperor to punish the crime."

Meng Qian fell down.

"Alas!" Zhu Wucheng sighed for a long time, "There is no sin, you are not guilty...... All sides are guilty, and the sin is in one person! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked!

Wen Fangyan, Liu Wenbin, Chen Ruiwen, and Jia Zheng hurriedly knelt down.

Dong Shan knelt down, "The old slave has something to say to a few adults, today His Majesty is to kill the old slave, and the old slave has to say it....." Kowtowed to Zhu Wucheng, and said to a few people: "Yesterday, Jia Zhenren was taken into the Qianqing Palace by the deputy head of the Qianqing Palace, saying that he was praying for the saint. The miscellaneous family thought that the concubine Niangniang had just been invited to the happy pulse, and Jia Zhenren was the elder of the concubine Niangniang, why not ask the real person to read a few verses to the Niangniang and the dragon in her womb to pray for blessings? So, the miscellaneous family took the initiative to invite the real person who was ready to leave the palace to Fengzao Palace, Xu because of family affection, Jia Zhenren has been reading scriptures in Fengzao Palace for a long time to pray for the blessing of the mother and the prince, and it was delayed..... "I cried when I said it. @精华\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~

Zhu Wucheng was anxious, stomped his feet, and said angrily: "What are you crying there?" Are you afraid they won't hear? ”

Wen Fangyan and the four of them glanced at each other.

Dong Shan slowly retracted, choked up and said, "The old slave will go to the Jia family to explain the reason and return His Majesty's innocence." ”

Zhu Wucheng's face immediately flashed a sadness, and he was silent for a while, "Can you say it clearly?" Unspeakable! ”

Jia Zheng spoke, "The minister believes in Your Majesty. ”

。 (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 194: Jia Jing's Death

Zhu Wucheng moved for a moment, and was silent.

"The ministers are willing to believe Your Majesty!"

Wen Fangyan and the three of them immediately agreed.

Zhu Wucheng softened his face and picked up the book of thanksgiving, he heard about Jia Jue's trip to the Beihai County Palace, and understood that this matter was related to him, and the hundreds of thousands of elites who were about to get their hands were likely to be ruined because of this, and his heart churned for a while, perhaps, he was too greedy and should not leave Jia Jing behind, at least not so late.

Could he have done it?

If it's true, what should you do?!

Zhu Wucheng suddenly looked at Wen Fangyan, "What do you think of Shoufu?" ”

Wen Fangyan was embarrassed, and hesitated for a while before he considered and said: "Your Majesty can order Yang Zongchang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, to preside over this trial, and the rest of the people are not allowed to move, in case someone fishes in troubled waters." ”

Zhu Wucheng nodded and muttered, "I understand....."

Chen Ruiwen's ears moved, his face changed slightly, and his eyes looked at the palace gate.

The others also heard the sound of running from the square of the Heart Cultivation Temple, and all eyes looked nervously at the temple gate.

..........

It is so heavy snow, the sky is blowing one after another, the Guang'anmen City Tower is particularly tall in the shadows, the people who queue up to enter the city are densely lined up in the heavy snow, the forbidden troops who defend the city are wearing big-brimmed winter hats, and stand upright in two columns with knives and guns in the flying snowflakes.

"Da Da...."

"Da Da...."

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance.

The forbidden army stretched his neck, looked at it, took a long breath, and a group of cavalry dressed in his whole body galloped forward, and the pedestrians on Guang'anmen Street avoided and dodged.

The thousand generals on duty and the non-commissioned officers of the forbidden army were frightened.

Mr. Qian: "Quick! Disperse all the people who are about to enter the city, and let them flash aside! ”

A group of forbidden soldiers rushed out in response.

The news of the death of Jia Jing, the former patriarch of the Jia family, was like a gust of wind blowing through Shenjing, and the whole city was shocked.

..........

Shui Rong grabbed the letters on the book and threw them on the ground, and found that there were still a few books that were not thrown away, so he grabbed them again and threw them down!

The chief guard standing next to him silently lowered his head, and the study was as silent as death for a while.

At this moment, the butler walked in through the door.

Shui Rong: "Which one wrote to reprimand this king?" ”

The housekeeper was silent, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and sighed deeply, "Lord, the Beihai County Mansion handed over a piece of paper, just one sentence: The state affairs are difficult, don't be sorry for the ancestors and ancestors, sorry for the emperor, sorry for everyone, and sorry for the people of the world." ”

Shui solu's face sank: "What does he mean by this?" ”

Looking at the letters scattered all over the ground, the housekeeper bent down, silently picked up the letters one by one, and put them on the book, "They also care about the prince.....

Shui Rong was a little impatient, "They always have a high-minded posture, this king looks disgusting, why?!" ”

The butler sighed, "Lord Wang, if you say something taboo, it's time for your temper to change..... It's like you're in front of outsiders....."

Shui Rong didn't get angry, but smiled slightly, "How is it?" With that, he got up and walked out.

The butler and the chief guard glanced at each other, and then walked out... _o_m 。
