Time is rushing, and it is two days again.

On this day, a strange thing happened in Ningguo Mansion, when Xichun's grandmother was eating wine with several old women in the mansion, her head suddenly exploded like a watermelon.

The red and white things splashed the old women who were eating and drinking at that time, which was really exciting, and there were two old mothers present at the time, and there were several middle-aged women who were cooking, all of whom were wet with their skirts and collapsed on the ground, and their screams almost didn't lift the roof.

There is a saying that "good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles." ”

It's just a morning, there are some chickens and dogs jumping here in Ningfu, but fortunately, Jia's mother in Xifu is well-informed, and she killed two mouthy maids with a cane, so that the matter was suppressed in the mansion and did not spread out.

Dai Quan, the prime minister of Daming Palace, received a secret report, and he almost choked himself to death with a sip of tea.

"What are you fooling you to be? This kind of information also dares to be sent here, just kidding, why do you see that you have lived enough!! ”

"My lord, this matter is really strange, if it weren't for the fact that my subordinates were really uncertain, I would never dare to bother my adults with this matter!"

Dai Quan listened to the report of his subordinates, touched his hairless chin, and sighed.

"Why, I can't be sure of a little thing, what is the emperor raising you for, is it waiting for a thief to rebel tomorrow and kill him into the palace, you still can't be sure, why don't you want to be the commander of the internal guard!!"

Listening to Dai Quan's heart-wrenching words, the man in black turned pale and grabbed the ground with his head.

"Forgiveness of sins! The subordinates will not dare to do this, the emperor is gracious, let me take charge of the internal guard, defend the imperial city, the subordinates dare not be sloppy, what is going on in the city, they will also get the news as soon as possible, wait for the day, and prepare for the saint to inquire, but this time it is really different, the place where the incident happened is the Ningguo Mansion, and the secret guard is present......"

Hearing this person's answer, Dai Quan raised his eyebrows, reached out to pick up the teacup, used the tea lid to pluck the tea leaves in the tea twice, took a sip, and then asked again.

"Ningguo Mansion? But the one on Ning Rong Street? ”

On weekdays, Jia Zhen and Jia Zheng gave him a lot of benefits, but now that he encounters this matter, he has the heart to pay some filial piety to Jia Zhen again, and he no longer cares.

"Exactly!!"

When the visitor heard that Dai Quan was planning to take over, he hurriedly replied.

"What about the Dark Guard? Bring someone over and ask in person!! ”

Dai Quan smiled, his eyes were a little distracted, but he didn't notice the different color on the face of the internal guard commander in front of him, otherwise, with his shrewdness, how could he be willing to care about this matter anymore!

The commander of the internal guard waved his hand and shouted outside the door: "Someone, bring the nightingale up!" ”

In a few moments, a woman was brought in, her hair disheveled, her eyes blank, saliva dripping from the corners of her mouth, and a large piece of her chest wet.

If there is a wife from the Ningguo Mansion here, he will definitely be able to recognize that this person is none other than Fang Er's family, who is in charge of cold dishes in the kitchen here in the Ning Mansion.

As soon as he saw this person, Dai Quan's face sank, and he already felt bad in his heart, looking at this person's condition, there was obviously a problem, either crazy or stupid.

The's throat was like a duck with a hint of coldness, "What's the matter with her??" ”

The commander of the internal guard stepped forward and replied, "Your Excellency, the nightingale is crazy!" ”

Dai Quan's face rose, and he slapped the table, "Xu Yuantu, you little rabbit cub, you are so bold, you dare to calculate!" ”

Hearing Xu Yuan's answer, Dai Quan's face was extremely gloomy, he now understood what was going on, Nightingale, as an internal guard, generally speaking, has a very good quality in his heart, but the previous incident made people crazy, and it is absolutely impossible to say that there is no problem with what happened that day.

And the place where the incident occurred is the Ningguo Mansion, he is a small commander from the four internal guards, where does he have the courage to provoke the Jia Mansion of the two national dukes, the affairs of the internal guards are not bright, once exposed, those nobles of the dynasty will not spare him, not to mention that to solve this matter, they have to go to Jiafu to search for clues.

As the head of the palace of Daming Palace, Dai Quan's power is not small, but the responsibility is also heavy, if he doesn't know about this matter, he has a way to sit back and relax, but he just knows it, if he doesn't ask, the emperor will ask in the future, he will be in a catastrophe.

He can make up what Ming Kangdi said when he was responsible, "Okay! That's great! As the internal supervisor of the palace, he knew that there was a problem, but he turned a deaf ear to it, covered it up everywhere, did not think about serving the country loyally, and shared his worries for me, he only knew that he would fill his own pockets and accept filial piety! Catch up with Ming'er, do you want to give my head to someone else?? What do I want you to do, come here, fork it out, and put it to death!! ”

Of course, this is just Dai Quan's own assumption, but after accompanying the emperor for a long time, his experience of the phrase "accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger" is deep in the bone marrow, so there is some persecution paranoia.

Xu Yuantu smiled, "Why did the minister say this, we are all doing things for the emperor, isn't this person also brought in by the prime minister?" ”

Hearing Xu Yuantu's words, Dai Quan was so angry in his heart! No wonder before, this old guy was low and small, and he scolded him like that, and he didn't fight back, his feelings were waiting for him here!

Although he can go to Ningfu to search for clues, the relationship that he has built up with great difficulty is gone, you must know that every year he can receive a lot of filial piety from Xungui!

Then there is the matter of the internal guard, if this matter is investigated, it will be a sure thing for the internal guard to be exposed, in the face of the four kings and eight princes and a group of nobles, it will provoke the anger of the public, and Emperor Ming Kangdi will definitely send him out to be shot.

So even if he could investigate this matter, he didn't want to, and he didn't dare to investigate, looking at Xu Yuantu with an innocent face, Dai Quan swept the teacup on the table with a slap, fell to the ground, and fell to the ground.

"Commander Xu! How can I remember this matter! Let's ride a donkey to read the record book in the future, and we'll see!! ”

"And! I also took this internal guard away, and there are still a few good hands in the Tai Hospital, let's see if I can save people, and wait for the saint to inquire, but I don't know who the saint will let go when he sends someone to investigate! ”

Hearing Dai Quan's words, Xu Yuantu's eyes narrowed, and the killing intent was vigorous, even if this matter is a saint's will, it is also a work that offends people, once this matter is searched by the clear order, it is a matter of time before the matter of internal defense is exposed, if he is targeted by that group of nobles, he will not have good fruit to eat.

Looking at Dai Quan, who was holding the orchid finger and leaving, Xu Yuantu sighed helplessly, his face was a little relaxed, as if he had finally unloaded the burden of a thousand catties, this matter is now much better than before, if it weren't for his calculations, I'm afraid he would have tied his head to the waistband of his trousers by now.

In fact, he knew in his heart that this matter might not be resolved in the end, and it was not as Dai Quan said, it involved the four kings and eight princes and other nobles, as well as the internal guards installed, even if Emperor Ming Kangdi was not good at it, he would not investigate it with great fanfare.

Even if you really want to check, you can take the opportunity to ask for a holy decree, and you are no longer as passive as before.

Another day, at sunrise in the east, a ship from Suzhou stopped at the dock in the capital.

This dream-like story has turned a new page.
