Chapter 159: A Great Opportunity
Before Jia Lian finished speaking, another servant of the Lin family sent another letter, and it was obvious that Lin Ruhai had also received the same news.
Lin Ruhai was keenly aware of the seriousness of the matter: "Lian'er, you go back immediately and erase all traces of your involvement in this matter." It's too big. ”
Jia Lian was also aware of this, and Xu Li was able to quietly empty the entire mansion under the conscious surveillance of the two major secret agencies, Jinyi Mansion and CRRC Mansion. And then finally disappear by itself, it is certainly impossible to say that no one has reported it.
This time, there is no doubt that it was a slap in the face of the emperor and even the entire imperial court. With the character of the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that the power of thunder will soon explode.
At that time, if the Son of Heaven knew that Jia Lian had already discovered that Xu Li had a problem but sat back and watched the traitor escape, it would be difficult for the Son of Heaven to say what he would do in anger.
Seeing Jia Lian leave in a hurry, Lin Ruhai shook his head: "Ah Zhong, inform our people, help Lian'er." It's too big. His black cloud had just been established, and although tongueless was a good one, his strength was still weaker. ”
Lin Zhong nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, master, I've been ordered." Before CRRC reacts, all traces must be eliminated.
But don't worry too much, sir. Although Heiyun has not been established for a long time, it has a large amount of silver from the second master as a supply, and has brought out a lot of good hands from the Beizhen Mansion Division.
The strength of the black cloud cannot be underestimated. What's more, compared to the black clouds, the Jingwei established by Wu Cheng was even more terrifying. ”
"Oh", Lin Ruhai knew that Jia Lian was not a big problem, so he put his mind at ease. Hearing Lin Zhong's words, he asked, "Tell me, shouldn't Jingwei be a private soldier, what's so scary?" ”
For Lin Ruhai, who was born in a former noble family. For the high-ranking officials and eunuchs who have actually held real power, the private soldier actually only plays the role of an honor guard.
"Hehe, master, you underestimate the second master. Jing Wei Ming is an elite force selected by Wu Cheng from the second master's personal soldiers to be used as a bodyguard.
In fact, it is an action organization established by the second master, which is far larger than the surface, and most of the people who are snared are people in the rivers and lakes. They can not only carry out tasks that black clouds cannot perform to spy on intelligence, but also carry out special missions, such as assassination. ”
Lin Ruhai felt a little interested, but he still frowned and said, "Lian'er is young and not meticulous. How could such a major event be detected so easily? ”
"Sir, you're wrong. The reason why I was able to find out was because people treated us as a family and didn't guard against us. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy. ”
Lin Ruhai nodded with satisfaction, since he planned to entrust his only beloved daughter, he naturally hoped that Jia Lian would be as good as possible.
However, Lin Ruhai suddenly frowned again: "But things are a little bad, this time Jinyi Mansion made such a big mistake, Luo Chengen is bound to be difficult to continue to serve as a commander."
It is very likely that the emperor will let Lian'er return to Jinyi Mansion. ”
Emperor Long Zheng, who heard the news, dropped the cup on the spot. Pointing at Luo Chengen is scolding: "Bastard, what are you doing to eat." Didn't the Jinyi Mansion say that its control over Shenjing was pervasive? Xu Li's traitor emptied the mansion, and hundreds of people disappeared like this. You don't even know it. ”
Luo Chengen's face turned pale, and he didn't say a word when he stood there. He knew that no matter what the reason was, it would be impossible for the emperor to allow him to continue to stay in Jinyi Mansion, and he was afraid that Jiuhua Palace would not intercede for him.
Thinking about this, Luo Chengen took off the official hat on his head and knelt down to plead guilty: "The minister is incompetent, the reputation of the tired emperor is damaged, and the minister's sin is also."
The minister has no face to take charge of the Jinyi Mansion again, and asks the emperor to choose another meritocracy. ”
When Emperor Long Zheng heard this, a pair of dragon eyes instantly widened: "Luo Chengen, are you threatening me?" ”
Luo Chengen was startled, and then he thought that what he said just now seemed to be suspected of coercing the Son of Heaven, and thinking of the power of the Son of Heaven now, Luo Chengen was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and trembled.
"The minister would never dare to have such a rebellious heart. What Fang Cai said was all the words of the minister. For more than a year, the minister felt old and powerless, unable to cope with the complicated affairs of the Jinyi Mansion.
Now, because of the incompetence of the ministers, such a catastrophe has been caused, which has damaged the face of the court and deprived His Majesty of holiness. If Your Majesty chooses a virtuous person to hold the position of brocade and captures the thief, then the ministers will ...... among the mountains and wilderness."
Before Luo Chengen finished speaking, Emperor Longzheng, who was even more angry after listening to him for a long time, snapped the teacup in his hand and smashed it on the floor in front of Luo Chengen.
"How dare you say ......"
"Your Majesty, the concubine asks to see you." Outside the door of the Zichen Palace, the voice of Empress Song sounded.
Luo Chengen clearly saw that the Son of Heaven, who was still furious just now, instantly calmed down a lot, and couldn't help but admire the methods of the master of Fengzao Palace. can control the Son of Heaven, how good is the queen's means.
"Chen Luo Chengen has seen the queen's mother, and I wish the mother a thousand years." Luo Chengen sincerely greeted the queen. Because he knew that in this case, only the queen would be able to save himself.
Empress Song looked at the man in front of her and smiled faintly: "Commander Luo doesn't need to be polite, there is such a big event in the country, I, a woman living in the deep palace, have heard about it, and the responsibility of Commander Luo's dereliction of duty is inevitable." ”
Luo Chengen was just about to speak, but Queen Song continued: "But I have to admit that Lord Luo can't be blamed for this, according to the palace, the main thing is to blame the thieves for being too cunning." ”
Luo Chengen was overjoyed when he heard Empress Song's words, and hurriedly looked at Emperor Longzheng.
Seeing Luo Chengen's eyes, Emperor Long Zheng sighed: "Since the queen intercedes for you, I will give you a grace." After going back, I will resign from the official and wait for the will. ”
"Thank you, Emperor Longen." Luo Chengen was overjoyed, he was really afraid that Emperor Long Zheng would kill him regardless of it, and he also knew that what he committed this time was indeed enough to be a capital crime.
Seeing Luo Chengen leaving, Emperor Long Zheng frowned and looked at Empress Song: "Why did the queen suddenly come to intercede for Luo?" ”
Empress Song pursed her lips and smiled: "Emperor, after all, two generations of the Luo family have worked for the Heavenly Family. Luo Chengen has also made meritorious contributions in the command of Jinyi Mansion over the years, and it is not appropriate to really kill him for this matter.
Besides, Luo Chengen is the hand of his father after all, and he always has to consider his father's face. So the concubine was brave and ran to the Zichen Palace. ”
Emperor Longzheng laughed: "The queen came at the right time, otherwise that Luo Chengen doesn't know anything, and I can't say that I can only kill him when I don't have to go down the steps."
However, this is fine, I have long wanted to replace Luo Chengen. It's just that I haven't had a chance, but Xu Li, the dog thief, gave me a great opportunity. ”
