In the study, the atmosphere is solemn.

The confidants eunuchs Wu Zhi and Liu Xin stood on the left and right, while Zhu Lu, the king of the valley, sat on the chair behind the table, his expression uncertain.

After a while, Zhang Cheng, who was also a confidant of King Gu in front of him, raised his hand to wipe his sweat, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, if it is decided today, King Yan is on the throne, it is really difficult to shake, and the minister implores His Highness to go to the table as soon as possible and hand over the remaining guards."

When Zhu Lu heard this, he snorted coldly and shouted: "Return the guards, do you think the fourth brother can let go of Lone?" You think beautifully! ”

"When Jing was difficult, Lone was working against the fourth brother, and he had already been on his checkbook. Now that the fourth brother has worked hard for several years, and it has cost countless costs to shed blood and sacrifice to have the position he has now, do you think that the fourth brother really doesn't watch out for us brothers and will have another battle of martyrdom? ”

"Or are you being unfaithful to Lone?" Zhu Lu lifted his python robe and asked sadly.

Zhang Cheng was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Weichen has no such intention, but His Royal Highness, it is really not suitable to raise troops now, there are only seven hundred guards in the mansion, although they are all reliable veterans brought by Xuanfu, but the Yan army has tens of thousands inside and outside Nanjing, and they are all elites in a hundred battles." I'm afraid that if we join forces, we will be defeated, and then I can't bear to talk about it, then"

Before Zhang Cheng's words were finished, suddenly, an attendant hurriedly ran into the study, the guard did not stop him, the attendant knelt on the ground, and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, Huang Wei asks to see!" ”

Huang Wei?

Zhang Cheng, who was originally in charge of Gu Wangsan's guards, thought for a while, and then reacted, this Huang Wei was the deputy Qianhu of the original left guard, but now he was scattered into Jinyiwei and became a thousand households, in charge of the edict.

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng suddenly sighed in his heart and secretly screamed that it was not good.

Zhu Wei frowned: "At this hour, how could Huang Wei come to look for orphans?" Declare! ”

The chamberlain took the order to retreat, and soon, he saw Huang Wei striding into the threshold, kneeling down on one knee and saying, "Your Highness!" ”

"Huang Qianhu, get up quickly!"

Zhu Wei actually got up from the chair and supported Huang Wei himself.

Huang Wei stood up, like a big man, with a long face and a square nose, a mouth full of scum, bulging muscles all over his body, full of explosive power.

"Your Highness."

Huang Wei stood up, his gaze scanned everyone's faces, and finally fell on Zhang Cheng.

Seeing Huang Wei in front of him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but jump his eyelids.

When Zhang Cheng served in the Xuanfu border army, he once met a martial artist who was good at using a double axe, and when he was the enemy, the person slashed with a double axe, and did not use any real strength, even if it was not a real fight, it was actually a few times to make Zhang Cheng dangerous, and finally the guards still used a big shield to block his axe.

It can be seen from this that the strength of this martial artist who is good at using two axes is amazing!

And this martial artist is Huang Wei.

Huang Wei arched his hand towards Zhang Cheng: "All command." ”

Then, he turned to the two eunuchs on the side and bowed: "Two old Linggong." ”

Zhang Cheng also bowed his hand slightly, which was considered a return gift, and he had a good impression of Huang Wei, after all, it is rare to be a fierce general like this who is good at making double axes.

"Huang Qianhu is in a hurry today, what's the matter?" Gu Wang Zhu asked hurriedly.

Huang Wei did not hesitate, opened his mouth and said: "Your Highness, a great disaster is coming!" Huang remembered the past and came to inform. ”

The king of the valley, Zhu Lu, suddenly changed his face unpredictably.

"Your Highness, do you know how King Yan treated Cao Guogong?"

Hearing that Huang Wei was talking about "King Yan" instead of "Your Majesty" and "Shengshang", King Gu felt a little more at ease.

"Sitting alone in the house, how do you know?"

"Your Highness." Huang Wei said earnestly, "Cao Guogong is not only imprisoned in the edict prison every day, but also secretly imprisoned, and is not known to outsiders at all!" ”

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Zhang Cheng, the commander of the capital, couldn't help but lose his voice for a while.

"That's not all!"

Huang Wei hurriedly said: "King Yan is even more here to eavesdrop every day!" ”

"Huh?"

Several people in the study looked at each other.

The dignified king of a country actually came to personally eavesdrop on the words of the important ministers who were imprisoned in the edict and ranked first among the hundred officials.

It's not like a human king!

"Tell me, how did you eavesdrop?" The old eunuch Wu Zhi looked like he had an idea, and he asked carefully.

"There is a tree in the Imperial Prison Court, which is not thick, but it is indeed the only place to enjoy the cool when the wind is released." Huang Wei is in charge of the edict prison, and naturally knows everything about the secret room, "And the wall behind the tree is said to be the method of the Jinyi Guard's wall in the Hongwu period, and the secret transmission of the original construction of this wall is to eavesdrop on whether the prisoners are plotting to riot, after all, the tree seems to be the safest place, and it is also the most likely place to produce secrets." ”

only heard the words "the wall has ears", and the old eunuchs who had experienced the era of Jinyiwei spies in the Hongwu Dynasty were so frightened that their legs trembled.

It's really scary.

In addition to the eared eavesdropping on the wall, Zhu Yuanzhang even asked the Jinyi guard to record the important actions of the ministers who were being monitored by the Jinyi guard in the form of painting.

Once Song Lian probably encountered a happy event, called a few friends to have a feast and drink, and on the same day, Song Ne encountered a disturbing thing, one of his precious tea utensils was knocked down and broken by several students of Guozijian while playing.

The next day, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Song Lian with a smile, 'Who was the guest yesterday?' What's the food? Song Lian replied truthfully, Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to hear it and said, "It is true, Qing is not deceitful", which scared Song Lian into a cold sweat, it is said that because Song Lian was honest (the author of "Sending Dongyang Horses", he has been used to it since he was a child) only bought a small courtyard, and Jin Yiwei bought the house next door to his house, separated from his bedroom by a wall, and used the method of having ears on the wall.

And Song Ne was asked by Zhu Yuanzhang why he was angry yesterday, Song Ne also answered truthfully, Zhu Yuanzhang made a move back, and asked the eunuch to give Song Ne a picture, which was painted with Song Sacrifice Wine Sitting Angry. Zhu Yuanzhang secretly arranged for Jin Yiwei, who was good at sketching, to monitor Song Ne, and Jin Yiwei drew Song Ne's angry form vividly and submitted it to the emperor.

This Jinyiwei is the famous painter Lin Liang of the Ming Dynasty, and because he is good at painting flowers and birds, he was recruited by Jinyiwei, a literati was appointed as a military attaché, and it was specially used to draw a comic book for Zhu Yuanzhang to monitor the minister.

Therefore, when I heard that there was a bugging wall with this quality in the edict, no one in the study room was surprised.

"What the hell is that eavesdropping?" Zhang Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"There is a secret room across the wall, in which King Yan eavesdrops on the conversation between Cao Guogong, the second prince, and a scholar under the tree every day."

"Reader?" Gu Wang Zhu frowned and asked.

"Yes." Huang Wei only mentioned one sentence, "A scholar from Jingting Mountain who is not talented is named Jiang Xinghuo." ”

Gu Wang Zhu Lu didn't care much, he asked again: "Then Huang Qianhu knows, what are they talking about?" ”

Huang Wei said helplessly: "Ji Gang never allowed me to enter the secret room, only King Yan, Master Daoyan, and Xia Yuanji, the head of the household, have entered these days. There are also two officials in charge of recording, but these two people are watched alone by Ji Gang's cronies. ”

"I really don't know what they're talking about, but there's no doubt that according to all indications, King Yan is about to make a move against Cao Guogong." Huang Wei said chiseledly, "Moreover, just these days!" ”

"Your Highness, when Cao Guogong is removed by King Yan, can you still live?"

Gu King Zhu Lu took a deep breath, tried to suppress his anger, and asked in a deep voice, "Huang Qianhu, what you said is true?" ”

Huang Wei nodded and said, "It's true, how dare Huang deceive His Highness?" Besides, Huang risked his death to report it, this is a head-killing act, how can His Highness suspect me? ”

"It's not suspicious of you." Gu Wang Zhu Lu was upset, "It's really desperate!" ”

"Why don't your highness take a fight?" Huang Wei tried his best to persuade.

Hearing this, Gu King Zhu Lu became more and more depressed: "There are only seven hundred guards in the mansion, how can you fight?" ”

"Your Highness's words are not right." The old eunuch Wu Zhi said, "In the past, King Yan rebelled and seized Beiping to make it difficult, and there were only 800 warriors in the palace? ”

"It's not the same thing, this is Nanjing City, and there are soldiers and horses of the fourth brother inside and outside."

Originally, Zhu Lu, the king of the valley, who was still a little confident when he talked to the princess, became more and more unconfident at this time.

Huang Wei suddenly took a step forward and said.

"There's not one place!"

Gu Wang Zhu Lu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.

"Where?"

"—Edict!"

Huang Wei said proudly: "King Yan came to the edict at noon every day to eavesdrop, and there were not many guards around him, and the brocade guards in the edict prison were mostly old soldiers from the Xuanfu among the three guards of His Royal Highness in the past, as long as His Highness was determined, they would definitely support His Highness." ”

"When the time comes, His Royal Highness led seven hundred guards to join forces with Huang Mouli and kill Yan Wei and Zhu Gaoxu. Falsely claimed that Emperor Jianwen was released from the Jinchuan Gate, and now he is in the mansion, and he will punish Yan for Shen Dayi, and at that time, the group of soft-boned officials will not kneel to offer you the emperor to rely on? ”

"A few months ago, the Yan army entered the city, and that's what they did." Gu Wang Zhu Lu snorted coldly: "What a good minister in Jiangnan!" ”

As everyone knows, he himself seems to be among them.

However, after Huang Wei's plan, the restless heart of Gu King Zhu Lu finally became completely restless.

The king of the valley, Zhu Lufu, asked again: "Then even if Yan Yi is killed, so many soldiers and horses inside and outside the city will always avenge Yan Wei, and when the time comes, we will have few soldiers, so what can we do?" ”

At this moment, Princess Zhou came in a hurry.

Gu Wang Zhu Yu hurriedly asked, "Ai Fei, what do you say over there?" ”

Zhou gasped heavily, sat down with the support of the two old eunuchs, and took two breaths before speaking.

"My father and I said it personally. Ahem, ahem! ”

"Aifei, you said it!" Gu Wang Zhu almost jumped up in a hurry.

"The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies has issued an order, Zhu Neng and other famous generals of the Yan Army will take their soldiers and horses to Susongjiahu Mansions tomorrow to promote the spread of labor into the mu and suppress the locality."

The king of the valley, Zhu Lu, was ecstatic with excitement.

"In other words, in the future, Yan Wei will go to the edict prison every day to eavesdrop, and the army in Nanjing City is empty?"

When the princess Zhou heard "Yan Rebellion", she was frightened for a moment, but seeing that several of her husband's henchmen were here, she also knew that as a concubine, she was both prosperous and lost with the king of the valley, and this thief ship would not be able to get down.

"That's right, Your Highness, don't hesitate any longer!" Huang Wei said.

The old eunuch Wu Zhi asked abruptly: "Huang Qianhu risked losing his head, and he also came to do this big thing?" ”

"The eldest husband was born in the world, and he can't eat Jiuding, how can he cook Jiuding?"

Huang Wei said generously: "Zhu Neng, the generals of the three guards of King Yan, is now ranked among the princes and uncles of the country, and they are glorious and rich. In the past, the border army practiced martial arts, and he was not a defeated general under Huang? Why did they do Guogong, Huang gave up his life and couldn't take one from Longbo? Do you want to watch the edict until you die of old age? ”

When Zhu Lu, the king of the valley, heard this, he finally made up his mind.

"That's the truth." Gu Wang Zhu Lu said fiercely, "This dragon chair, the fourth brother sits, why can't I sit down?" ”

"Tomorrow the army will be attacked, and the edict will be raided!"
