"Dare to ask, but Shuidong Liu Shuzhen, Mrs. Liu?" Jiang Zhen came to Liu Shuzhen, swept away the fierce posture of Jinyiwei who can stop children crying at night on weekdays, but asked very politely, with a very polite attitude.

"The concubine body is exactly." Liu Shuzhen saw that the salute had been thoughtful for a few years, so she also returned the salute with her own family gift. "I don't know what the adults are ......"

"Oh, this general is Jiang Xuan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard of the Son of Heaven's pro-army, and on the orders of His Majesty, he has come to welcome his wife into the palace to meet him." Jiang Zhen said. "The Son of Heaven knows that Shuidong is obedient, and he is also very concerned about the affairs of the southwest, and when he heard that his wife came from thousands of miles, he asked me to come to greet him...... I don't know if it's convenient for Mrs. now? His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are already waiting in the palace. ”

Liu Shuzhen was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Convenient, it must be convenient, His Majesty the Emperor Hongen, how can there be a reason to teach His Majesty to wait for a long time!" ”

"Commander Jiang, let's go to the palace now! The situation in the southwest brooks no delay, and we must present this matter to Your Majesty as soon as possible! ”

Jiang Zhen nodded expressionlessly, and asked his subordinates to protect Liu Shuzhen and the others, and was about to leave the Ministry of Rites. At this time, Chen Di, the waiter on duty in the Ministry of Rites today, heard that the commander of the Jinyi Guard had come in person, and hurriedly carried his official robes and hurriedly ran out to greet him: "Lord Jiang is here, my Ministry of Rites is really full of brilliance." ”

"I didn't know that my lord was here, but I need help from the Ministry of Rites? But please speak bluntly...... Chen Di was very humble.

Jinyiwei is famous, and in the past, when Hu Weiyong's case and the empty seal case were in prison, I don't know how many civil officials and scribes died. Whenever these officials pass by the Jinyi Wei Yamen, they can see countless poignant spirits floating in the sky above the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division...... This Jiang Xuan is not smiling on weekdays, but what he does is better than the previous generation of commanders Mao Xiang, and the secret spies of Jinyi are all over the Ming Dynasty, and no one knows whether Jinyiwei's hands are enough to control life and death.

Although officials like Chen Di hated the existence of Jinyiwei, they didn't dare to show it on their faces, and they still had to be respectful and treat them like guests on weekdays.

"Heh, the threshold of the Ministry of Rites is so high, how can I dare to send the Ministry of Rites to do things?" Jiang Zhen sneered, and only glanced at Huang Zicheng who was standing in the corner with cold eyes.

"Your Ministry of Rites can isolate the inside and outside, penetrate the heavens and the earth, and dare to reprimand the wives and relatives of the second-class adults, even His Royal Highness the King of Zhou dare not take it seriously. I don't dare to mess with it. ”

"Sons, clamp our tails, our position is not comparable to His Royal Highness Zhou Wang. In case it angers the adults of the Ministry of Rites, we Jinyi pro-army can't get along in this Ying Tianfu. ”

Zhu Su Chen asked Lao Zhu to send Mao Xiang, the first commander of Jinyiwei, to Fengmingzhou to avoid the tragedy of Mao Xiang's rabbit and dead dog, so Jiang Xuan, who was the second commander, had a very good impression of Zhu Su, and naturally would not be stupid enough to provoke Zhu Su.

He is an extremely calm and capable person, and he also knows that the emperor set up the Jinyi Guard, which is to use them as a sharp knife in his hand to remove the rotten flesh of the imperial court...... If one day his sharp knife is exhausted from the previous Mao Xiang, perhaps, he will also rely on His Royal Highness the King of Zhou to save a life.

"Hahaha." The unsmiling command made it rare for the adults to be bitter and mean, and this group of unbeatable brocade clothes rode out loud with natural cooperation. Their rampant laughter made the officials of the Ministry of Rites suddenly feel cold in their necks, and Chen Di, the biggest official here, was even more pale, and he didn't know why Jiang Zhen was like this.

Jiang Zhen didn't bother to say much to them, the ridicule was over, and he glanced at Huang Zicheng, who was already scared, and then led the people away by himself.

"Tell me what happened!"

"Wait, how did you evil the group of living Hades of the Jinyi Guard?" As soon as Jinyiwei and the people of Shuidong left, Chen Di had a gloomy face and questioned the principals.

"Great, my lord, I don't dare to anger those eagle dogs of the Jinyi Guard."

"It's Huang Zicheng Huang who is in charge...... He, he was arguing with the Shuidong woman before...... "Someone timidly confessed Huang Zicheng."

Chen Di's face was slightly angry, and he interrogated everything that had happened.

"I thought you were also a learned person, and I couldn't bear to have a legacy in the wilderness, so I hired you as a director...... I don't want you to rely on this little power in your hands to act as a prestige and obstruct the affairs of the court, and almost shame my Ministry of Rites for being incompetent! Chen Di looked at Huang Zicheng and scolded angrily.

He is one of the few old scholars in the court, because he is cautious and has no bad deeds of corruption, so he can keep his life to this day.

A large number of the officials of the Ministry of Rites were still literati who were proficient in the old learning. After all, the study of the old paper pile by the new school is far less profound than the old one.

And the old school is proficient in this. It is precisely because Huang Zicheng bowed down to the book and was proficient in this matter that he was promoted by the Ministry of Rites and was able to be in charge.

But at this time, he has undoubtedly broken into a catastrophe......

"Lord Shilang, I'm ......" Huang Zicheng opened his mouth to defend himself, he believed that the behavior of those people in Shuidong was indeed non-compliant, and his behavior of blocking it could barely be justified......

Unexpectedly, Chen Di didn't give him a chance to speak at all, but said directly in a cold voice: "From tomorrow, you don't have to come here to order!" ”

"Do a little thing, you dare to mistake the major events in the southwest, and even beat around the bush and slander the prince."

"If he becomes the chief official in the future, isn't he going to mistake the whole world?"

"Go, go, do your own learning! This small temple of my Ministry of Rites can't accommodate your big Buddha! ”

As he spoke, Chen Di called the guards and threw Huang Zicheng out of the main hall of the Ministry of Rites in front of everyone. The guards at the door crossed their hands and stopped Huang Zicheng, who was struggling to climb into the Ministry of Rites again, at the door.

also completely cut off his official career.

“…… This, this, heavens, I, Huang Zicheng, what kind of evil have I created......" Huang Zicheng only felt that the world was dark, he was dirty, looked up to the sky and shouted, beating his chest.

"Daddy, daddy, what's wrong with that guy?"

“…… Shhh, don't talk too much, I don't know where the crazy scholar came from...... Such madmen are always pretentious, thinking that they are the material for officials! ”

A pair of porters and father and son happened to pass by and saw Huang Zicheng's appearance, his son looked puzzled, and the father quickly covered his son's mouth and left in a hurry, looking at Huang Zicheng's appearance full of disdain. At noon, corrupt officials and faint officials are killed, and they are used to peel the skin of daylily, and their crimes, the emperor has made it clear to the people one by one, all of them are innocent villains.

But before some corrupt officials die, they always like to look up to the sky and shout a few words.

It seems that if he did this, he was really a pearl covered with dust, as if he had been wronged.

……

On the other hand, with the introduction of Jiang Zhen, Mrs. Liu Shuzhen went all the way unimpeded and had already entered the imperial city.

The reason why Jiang Zhen is so enthusiastic is actually because Liu Shuzhen came here to solve his great difficulties.

As the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he already has the responsibility of being the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven and detecting the Quartet. Ma Ye said that Shuixi was in rebellion, and Jinyiwei failed to detect it in advance, but later Lao Zhu inquired about the situation in the southwest of Jiang Zhen and analyzed whether it was possible for Shuixi to really turn it back, and Jiang Zhen couldn't come up with too much information.

In fact, this is not to blame Jiang Xuan, after all, the focus of Jinyi's secret detectives has always been in Beijing and the nomadic land in the north, and this outside and inside is the danger that the imperial court must stabilize. There are secret agents in the southwest, and most of them have spread to Annam, Siam and other places, and most of the Yunnan-Guizhou Tusi ethnic groups are closed, and it is difficult for Jinyiwei to penetrate, and it is indeed difficult to know what exact news is.

But the emperor will not take into account these internal information, he will only feel that it is the incompetence of the Jinyi guards, so Jiang Zhen has been in a hurry these days, and has successively sent a lot of secret spies to the southwest. But after all, the distance was there, and for a while, he still couldn't know the specific news of the southwest.

But at this time, people from Shuidong undoubtedly solved Jiang Zheng's great difficulty. Shuidong is adjacent to Shuixi, and the two sides used to be stationed in Guiyang City, so Shuidong must know the most clearly about the anti-affairs in Shuixi. His Majesty can know the situation in the southwest through Shuidong, and his anger towards Jinyiwei will naturally be much less.

"Your Highness has a decree, Mrs. Xuan will enter the palace to meet you, madam, please." Jiang Xuan stretched out his hand and asked.

Liu Shuzhen nodded, and strode into the tall and brilliant hall in front of her.
