Chapter Eighty-Nine: Ming Lanying's Hind Hand
What Ming Lanying could think of, Ye Jielu and the emperor had already thought of, but unfortunately the time left was not enough for them to investigate and work carefully, so they could only try their best to arrange their henchmen in important positions and try their best to reduce losses.
There are less than three months to go Prince Heng into Beijing with troops, Ye Jielu and several of the emperor's henchmen have become busier, the affairs of the Ming family have been secretly collecting evidence this year, as soon as the Ming boss leaves the capital, some things are much easier to do, the Ming family is almost cleaned up, and the full power is handed over to the criminal department to handle, Dali Temple was transferred to investigate Prince Heng's affairs.
However, the 400,000 private soldiers of Prince Heng hidden in the capital are still a big trouble for the emperor, 400,000, they are almost catching up with a county, this is a provocation under his nose, and the emperor has never understood where Prince Heng pulled so many people from.
The emperor wanted to do a big cleaning at one time, but there were still people from the Ming family in the household, and the emperor still used a little person who had just been inserted in it for a short time.
The emperor and Ye Jielu discussed, anyway, the Ming family is now locked up in prison, and expulsion and exile are a sure thing, so he directly waved his hand and hurriedly dealt with Prince Heng's private soldiers. That night, the deployment map of the Imperial City Praetorian Guard was stolen in the past three days, and Ye Jielu led a large group of people to investigate all over the city, and the momentum was huge, but the murderer was not found after checking for one night.
The next day, when he went to the court, he went directly to the court, and asked the household department to check the household registration of the people in the capital, and let go of the household registration innocently, and he had to check it clearly one by one if the household registration was vague.
It is a matter of the safety of the whole city, and the theft of the three-day defense map can completely allow the enemy to find out the law of deployment, so the household department cannot pretend to handle it lightly.
There are people in the household who are old and gentle, trembling and trying to delay time, but the person who the emperor has just inserted received the secret order and behaves very actively, regardless of the hesitation of the top boss, directly relying on the support of the emperor who is a newcomer, and intervening in the arrangement beyond the authority of the superiors, and immediately took the emperor's people and the neutral people in the household department to investigate one by one.
The others gritted their teeth at him, but they couldn't make a move on this conspicuous bag, otherwise the emperor would find out that they were deliberately delaying, and they could only secretly stumble.
There were some difficulties and obstacles in the investigation of household registration, but the Praetorian Guards intervened very quickly, and it took a month before and after, and the Janissaries checked one by one, and the Praetorian Guards arrested about 100,000 black households without household registration day and night, and the prisons in the entire capital were filled.
When Ye Jielu took a walk with Ming Lanying after dinner, he told her about it by the way, and Ming Lanying sighed twice after hearing it.
"It's been a long time since you've arrested so many people?"
Ye Juelu nodded, "One hundred thousand, it's still a bit much." ”
Ming Lanying looked up at the bright stars in the night sky, the galaxy woven by little stars, not as magnificent as it was when it was plugged in, but it had a gentle taste.
"And what are they going to do?"
"All of them are marked with the mark of cheap slaves, and the household registration of cheap slaves is up, and the men are dragged to the west to reclaim wasteland and expand the land, and the women may be dragged to overseas markets to trade, or they may be pulled to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion to do low-grade skin and meat business, and they will be disposed of within seven days."
Ming Lanying was silent for a moment, "And the woman?" ”
"Yes, one in eight out of 100,000 people, who don't look like us, like a mixed race from a foreign country."
Ming Lanying frowned, "Have you found out if it is a rebel hiding in the capital?" Will there be a mistake? ”
"There will also be a few mistakes that will be re-registered and released, and the rest will go through three layers of investigation, and there will be no mistakes."
Ming Lanying suddenly thought of the emperor who was only a little childish to the queen, the queen was a month old, and the fetal movement was unstable in the middle of the night, and the emperor said seriously to the queen's stomach in the middle of the night that he didn't want him to make trouble, and couldn't help laughing.
"Is the emperor angry? What about the rest of the uncaught? ”
Ye Jielu thought of the emperor angrily turning around in the study, but he felt sorry that the hard-won silver could not smash things, and he also chuckled, "I have caught 100,000 yuan, and the rest have also increased my vigilance, if you want to continue to catch it, there is no time to waste, and there is no place to close, the emperor has asked the golden eagle to fly to the border with the gold medal and secret letter, and secretly recalled the general of Zhenguan to come back to rescue the driver, if you hurry up, it should be too late." ”
Ming Lanying nodded, the golden eagle understands human words, and has been with the emperor for a long time, and the emperor treats it very well, last time he didn't consciously protect the queen, Ming Lanying didn't blame it, but the golden eagle king has the "dignity" of being a king himself, and this time the emperor asked it to help, and it is incumbent.
Ye Jielu turned his head to look at her, and saw that she suddenly smiled and crooked, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, "The capital is the closest place to the Son of Heaven, there will be no unidentified people at the feet of the Son of Heaven, every year the household department will sort out the household registration of all the people in the capital, this time 100,000 unidentified people have been arrested, and the household department has already confirmed the felony of corpse vegetarian meal and bullying the monarch, and when this matter is over, the household department will also usher in the emperor's wrath." ”
Ming Lanying hooked Ye Juelu's hand and shook it, "You're busy again." ”
Ye Jielu clasped his backhand, squeezed his five fingers into the gap between her fingertips, and gently kneaded the thin cocoon on her hand, "Being a courtier, being loyal to the emperor, and doing your best for him is just my duty, and it is also for myself." Only when there is a country can there be a home, this country can be guarded for a hundred years, it is the emperors of all dynasties who are careful to control the overall situation, and loyal ministers use blood, sweat and bones to guard the people's country and people's peace. ”
Ming Lanying continued his words, "Only when the country is strong and the emperor's control is stronger, the people can be safer, and the fewer unidentified black households, can we put an end to the hidden dangers hidden in the shadows." ”
"Hmm."
Ming Lanying can support and understand him so much now, Ye Jielu is very happy, today is another day to love the lady even more!
Ming Lanying had a flash of inspiration, "I have one thing I want you to help with!" ”
Ming Lanying's idea may be a bit bold, but this is the only thing she can do, and I hope it will be useful at a critical time.
Raise beasts!
When Prince Heng led the troops to force the palace, the beast could protect the queen's side, and he could also let Ye Jielu and Hebai take two birds of prey to assist, and the combat power was not as good as that of a human with a real knife and a real gun, but the beast had the agility and intuition of a beast.
Ming Lanying told Ye Jielu about this idea, and Ye Jielu knew that she had the ability to communicate with those beasts, but she still felt that it was too risky, "Fierce beasts are originally bloody and irritable beasts, what if they don't listen to you at a critical moment?" ”
If she is an ordinary person who can communicate with all living beings, she may really not be able to control them at a critical time, but her ability to communicate and control it is just rarely used, after all, there are advantages and disadvantages, if you control too many large beasts, the side effects on her body will be super tripled, and the already sensitive pain nerves will be more painful, and a slight bump can make her feel painful.
Ming Lanying gritted her teeth, it's not that she can't recover, it's just that it takes a little time, it's better than when the time comes, Ye Juelu and Hebai can be the same as in her dreams, and she can't keep anyone.
"Don't worry, I have magical abilities! They won't disobey me! I absolutely guarantee this, and I use those beasts just to protect the queen mother, when the queen mother still has me by her side, it will be fine, you and Hebai and the emperor can rest assured in front. ”
Ye Jielu didn't distrust her ability, but he was afraid of any accidents, he still remembered that she was in the side plug at the time, and she fainted twice in pain when she was drugged on her back, and the overly sensitive pain made him feel uneasy.
"Then you, will there be any bad negative effects?"
Ming Lanying shook the hands of the two of them, "Don't worry, it's okay, you will protect me from injury, right?" ”
Ye Jielu glanced at her deeply, "Well, I won't let you suffer a little bump and injury." ”
Ming Lanying smiled, "It's better to keep the fierce beast by your side since childhood, but now there is not much time, and it is too late to cultivate feelings, so I can only communicate with them more first, so that they can stand with us wholeheartedly, which is also a little more help, but it is a little difficult to get a fierce beast in the capital and send it to the palace." ”
Ye Jielu squeezed her hand to soothe, "I'll figure it out." ”
Ye Jielu said that it would take three days to find a way, Ming Lanying took advantage of this time to be a little free, and read the account book sent by Ming Langtao quickly, and when she was busy, Hebai and Ning'er would be by her side, one eating supper and the other playing with the wolf cub.
Fortunately, Ming Lanying is fast, and after reading so many account books, she also figured out the routines inside, except for some gray accounts that are really unclear, and the others are speeding up, hiding in the house and waiting for the matter to be over, and bring it back to the side plug together.
Thirty days to go to Yongzhou City to find out the news, Prince Heng and others are very fast, Ye Jielu pinched his fingers and arrived in the capital in less than a month and a half, but the capital was still calm and peaceful.
In order to please his wife, Ye Jielu asked people to find a lot of bloody beasts, locked them in cages and raised them, and smiled for the Pomeranians.
The henchmen of the Ming family in the court were basically cleaned up, and the rest were Prince Heng's people and the emperor's people, as well as some neutrals who were undecided.
The fierce beasts sent into the house will be sent into the courtyard of the Ming Lan Ying for the first time to stay overnight, and the next day the Ming Lan Ying will let them out and wander around the house, and the fierce beasts that have gathered their claws and canine teeth are very obedient, but they are still so frightened that the king steward does not even dare to come out with his subordinates.
The guards in the shadows looked shocked and admired, worthy of their commander's wife, even the fierce beasts can be tamed, it's too good*!
Ming Lanying was thinking about how to send these fierce beasts to the queen's side, and the royal steward trembled and bypassed the lazy tigers, gray wolves, and cheetahs in the mansion, trying to stabilize the face of the steward of the mansion and report to Ming Lanying.
"Mrs. Bao, the third master of the Ming family in prison wants to see you."
"See me?" Ye Jielu held the lion's head with one hand and looked at the account book with the other, "Why do you want to see me?" ”
The king's steward quietly moved to the side, away from the yawning lion, "Maybe I want to ask Madame." ”
Ming Lanying pinched the lion's little ear, "Has the execution of the Ming family come down?" ”
"Not yet, the boss of the Ming family hasn't come back yet."
Ming Lanying suddenly grinned, "Okay, then go and see my third uncle, and ask Hebai to come with me." ”
"Yes."
Hebai was practicing martial arts to teach Ning'er archery, so Ming Lanying came over and called away, and Ming Lanying let the wolf cub guard Ning'er every step of the way before leaving.
"Ning'er obediently waited at home for her mother to come back."
"Good!"
Ming Lanying took Hebai to the prison of the Criminal Department, and the guards guarding the prison saw that it was Mrs. Ye Commander, who led the way sensibly and cleared the scene intimately.
Hebai looked at the prison that was much emptier than a month ago, "This is quite fast, 100,000 people have been allocated?" ”
The guard respectfully explained, "Yes, the emperor ordered the little ones not to dare to delay, and discharged a lot of manpower to escort them." ”
The prison was cold and smelly, and Hebai was afraid that Ming Lanying wouldn't be able to stand it, so he complained with some dissatisfaction, "Why is this Ming family so inside?" ”
"Harm, Commander Ye ordered, the Ming family is cunning, afraid of colluding with the henchmen in prison, and directly locked up in the innermost compartment, this Ming Third Master said that he had to meet his wife, and the small ones dared to invite Mrs. only after they reported to the top, and Mrs. was tired to take two more steps."
Ming Lanying is not used to the smell of this prison, but she wants to see what else the Ming family can think, "It's okay, you have worked hard." ”
"It's not hard to be able to do things for my wife."
The Ming family was indeed locked up in the innermost part of the prison, and the criminal department was only locked up in one line, and the side branch was pulled to the cell on the other side of the capital, and there were many people in the Ming family, six or seven people were locked up in one room and four rooms, and the Ming family, who were once glamorous and high-spirited, are now all unkempt, and Ming Lanying almost couldn't recognize them.
When the Ming family saw that the guards respectfully brought Ming Lanying, they were puzzled, until Qi Ningshuang and Qin Jiyan exclaimed, and everyone knew that this was the eldest lady of the former big house in their house.
Qin Meiyan grabbed the wooden pole and said happily to Ming Lanying: "The eldest niece is here to save us, right?" I'll just say that we are a family, and the family is helping each other, hurry up, let him let us out, and the second aunt will remember your good! ”
Qi Ningshuang knew that her husband called Ming Lanying, and looked at her coldly, her baby daughter didn't kill her, but compensated herself, she didn't believe that Ming Lanying was innocent.
The third master of Ming said to Ming Lanying seriously: "Eldest niece, the third uncle is really helpless to call you here, we only have you in the Ming family now, and you are still outside, they are all a family, you can't watch your mother's family fall like this, right?" If the Ming family is good, you will have the support of your mother's family, and you can be respected in the Commander's Mansion. ”
As soon as the rest of the Ming family heard that she could save them, they came forward to climb the relationship and talk about family affection, Ming Lanying looked at them with a smile, and the guards who led the way retreated sensibly as soon as they raised their hands.
As soon as the guards left, the Ming family was anxious, shouting what Ming Lanying meant, and laughed at Hebai, but she was not good at meddling in her sister-in-law's family affairs.
Ming Lanying looked at the faces of the Ming family one by one, and could vaguely recognize the people who had followed the trend and harmed the original Ming Lanying.
"Why should I save you? I would be better off without you, wouldn't I? ”
Have fun
