In Dongjiang Rice Lane, the various yamen have become a pot of porridge.

In all dynasties, civil officials were most afraid of mutiny. If you encounter a civilian official planning a mutiny, it is okay, and your own people are reasonable after all, but when you encounter such a tenacious military leader or peasant, it is likely to be boiled in the pot.

"Who spearheaded the rebellion?"

"I heard that it was the Fenwu Battalion, but there was already blood in the camp anyway!"

"The latest news that this official got is the martial arts camp, and they seem to be trying to help King Xing seize the door!"

"Can these grandchildren's brains be caught in the door? When the first emperor really wanted to abolish the reserve, a minion could stop it? ”

"This news is not right, how can King Xing be qualified to seize the door, I heard that he dared to rebel, and now he is killing people on the street!"

……

Due to the variety of sources, it is natural that rumors of exaggeration and conjecture will appear, causing the bloodless officials who had heard the "opposite" to tremble with fear.

Rebellion, murder, war, burning, looting, massacring......

Bad words kept flashing, tormenting these imaginative ministers.

Don't look at them on weekdays, because they have read a few military books, they often think of themselves as soldiers, but when they learned that there was a military accident in Beijing, they immediately thought about how to run.

"Don't listen to the wind and rain, go back to the government office for the headquarters and halls!" Fortunately, the high-ranking officials of the various yamen were quite calm, but they stood up one after another to preside over the overall situation.

Li Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and Du Ming, the secretary of the Criminal Department, vaguely guessed what was going on, so they personally stood up to restrain the officials of their yamen, and resolutely wanted to act as if nothing had happened.

It's just that in the face of the high-ranking officials of the ministry who came out to stop the rumors, some officials who watched the six ways and listened to all directions muttered: "The Ministry of Rites has run out!" ”

Ni Yue, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, was sent to the prison of the Criminal Department, while Huang Jing, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhou Hongmo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, had returned home to live idle because of their participation in spreading rumors about the waste of storage, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites who had lost their restraint fled back to their homes to avoid trouble.

With the city of Beijing and the Imperial City closing their gates one after another, and indeed there were no cases of rebels killing people in the streets, on the contrary, the soldiers and horses of the five cities had already maintained order on West Chang'an Avenue, and many officials slowly calmed down.

Although the rebels are very formidable, this is the imperial capital after all. Even if someone really wants to lead the army to rebel, the city of Beijing and the imperial city here can be regarded as impregnable, and the loyalty of the soldiers of the Beijing army is the highest.

As long as it is handled properly, just like Cao Qin's mutiny back then, it will not set off any waves at all.

"The rumors stop at the wise, this time it was the commander of the three Beijing camps who disobeyed His Majesty's eunuch to take over and made trouble!"

"Trouble? As far as this official knows, someone has already beheaded the eunuch sent to take charge of the army, what is this not a rebellion? ”

"If the holy decree is not obeyed, I think some people in the army have already rebelled, and this Beijing army will have to be rectified!"

"If you want to rectify it, this official thinks that when the twelve wine bags and rice bags are rectified, all of them will go home to make up for sleep in the morning!"

……

Many officials have slowly calmed down, and after making sure that it is not the military pot they imagined, they even pointed the finger at the commander of the Beijing camp and the twelve military commanders who made trouble.

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

"Humble Greetings to St. Ann!" Zhu Ji and Mu Bin came in together to face the saint and saluted Zhu Youzhu respectfully.

Zhu Youzhi rarely had contact with Jinyiwei, so he said straight to the point: "Holy bow! Today, the martial arts camp, the Kokang battalion and the Yangwei battalion are resisting the order, and the small commanders will not be so rampant, and you Beizhen Fusi will immediately investigate the people who have close contacts with these three commanders, and you will definitely find out the mastermind behind the scenes! ”

This......

Zhu Ji and Mu Bin secretly exchanged glances, but they knew that if they started from these three commanders, then this fire was likely to burn into the intricate network of relationships within the civilian official group.

Throughout the Ming Dynasty, only the general soldiers who offended the civil servants were demoted or beheaded, and I have never heard of a general soldier who died because of offending Wu Xun.

Now the generals of the Beijing army are not stupid, they naturally want to hug the thickest thighs, and it is impossible for the martial arts who are difficult to protect themselves to bring them promotions and knighthoods.

Zhu Ji is over fifty years old, after all, he has experienced many years of ups and downs, and these leading things are naturally going to be handed over to young people, so he handed Mu Bin a look.

Mu Bin was a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he also caught a glimpse of Zhu Youji's careful thoughts, so he dissuaded him: "Your Majesty, according to your humble opinion, the 12th Regiment Battalion has always been a pro-guard army, and it has absolute loyalty to Your Majesty!" This time, it should be the senior generals of individual battalions who are in a mood because of their resistance to the eunuchs' command, and I am afraid that there is no mastermind behind this matter! ”

Liang Fang's brows furrowed, but he silently looked at this brocade-clothed guard.

"Mu Yanshi, when did you enter the Jinyi Guard?" Zhu Youzhu looked at this face with thick eyebrows and big eyes that seemed to be decent, and asked very calmly.

Mu Bin's eyes flashed with a touch of pride, and he responded truthfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the humble position is to join Jinyiwei in the twenty-first year of Chenghua, and it is hereditary to a hundred households!" ”

"In three years, I was promoted from a hundred households in brocade clothes to a four-grade servant, and the road to the front of the emperor was too smooth and too urgent, but I didn't know how to kneel! You go back to the position of the hundred households, and walk through it again, I hope that the next time we meet, remember that your head is lowered, I don't like it! Zhu Youzhu did not feel angry, but admonished seriously.

Liang Fang turned his head to look at Zhu Youji, his eyes couldn't help but burst into tears, and he found that the new monarch was slowly transforming into a real emperor.

Is the road to the palace too smooth?

Take a good walk again?

Remember to lower your head, don't I like it?

Cold sweat oozed from Zhu Ji's forehead, and he seemed to swallow and spit carefully, while silently lowering his head a little more.

In earlier information, the wardrobe prince was a very forgiving person, not only never punishing those around him, but listening carefully to the advice of others.

It's just that the earlier information is all invalid at this moment, even the former arbitrary Emperor Chenghua has a tolerant side, but this new monarch ruined Mu Bin's drill camp and the efforts of the people behind him just because of Mu Bin's words.

The dignified and upright Jinyi Wei affair, everyone is recognized as the most powerful candidate to succeed him, and now he has been beaten back to his original form by a sentence from Xinjun.

What would have been the result if you had just opened your own mouth?

As soon as he thought of this, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, knowing that it was also a very terrible consequence, and the new monarch in front of him was simply a bird of prey.

The corners of Mu Bin's mouth opened slightly, but he quickly mustered up the courage to say: "Your Majesty, Weichen is not convinced, Weichen is ...... this way It is a promotion of accumulated military merits, not a stealing and trickery, please take back your life! ”

"Your Majesty, he has just been promoted to the Jinyi Guard, and it is indeed because of merit, and Huaien personally asks for merit for him!" Liang Fang reminded with a smile as if she had thought of something.

Mu Bin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Weichen checked the loss of Duke Huai's house...... Steal! ”

Zhu Ji's head is lower, this time it is not because of Zhu Youji's words just now, but he didn't expect that there was a pig kneeling next to him, and the gang had been pushing this person to succeed him.

"Commander Zhu, your head is too low!" Zhu Youzhu was not interested in how Mu Bin came up, and reminded Zhu Ji, who was about to stick his head to the ground.

Zhu Ji thought that this new monarch was so deeply hidden in the past, and felt that those officials who despised the new monarch were all harming their own intelligence, so he couldn't help but say with sweat: "The minister is afraid, the minister is here!" ”

"My patience with your investigation is limited! If this kind of trivial matter can't be done well, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Jinyiwei, and I don't believe I can't find anyone who can do it! Although Zhu Youzhu didn't plan to remove Zhu Ji yet, he chose to knock the tunnel.

Zhu Ji knew that this new monarch was probably ten times more difficult to serve than the previous emperor, so he stubbornly said: "The minister obeys the order, and then I will investigate the mastermind behind this rebellion!" ”

"Stand down!" Zhu Youzhu didn't want to waste too much time on these two people, so he waved his hand again and again.

The Forbidden City is already on alert, so it is very complicated to enter and exit the palace gate.

The spirit and elegance on Mu Bin's body disappeared, and Zhu Youji's words just now kept echoing in his mind. When he looked back at the head of the palace he had walked through, he had just walked through, but this palace road had become so far away.

"Let's go!" Zhu Ji saw that the palace gate had been opened, and reminded Mu Bin, who had been relegated back to the hundred households in brocade.

Mu Bin looked back at the palace road leading to Fengtianmen with affection, obviously this palace road was so far away from him, but he wanted to go again in his heart - because this palace road is indeed the most beautiful palace road in the world.

It was noon, and the entire Wumen Square was shrouded in sunlight.

"Brother Shangde, what did Your Majesty say just now?" Yu Zijun, the secretary of the military department, has been waiting here for news, and when he saw Zhu Ji who came out, he pulled aside and inquired.

Zhu Ji knew the value of a military secretary, and even chose to save it: "Your Majesty wants to investigate the officials who have close contacts with the commanders of the third battalion, you had better pay attention to it, and don't have anything to do with these three people!" ”

"I'll deal with this matter immediately, thank you for your kindness!" Yu Zijun's heart immediately made a decision, so he gratefully patted Zhu Ji's arm to show his intimacy.

Zhu Ji knew that Yu Zijun would definitely be able to save himself, so he invited with a smile: "Now Your Majesty is staring, after this matter is over, let's get together again!" ”

"When I am the host of the house, I will surely make my brother happy!" Yu Zijun knew that he could escape this catastrophe, so he patted Zhu Ju's shoulder again and said happily.

At this moment, a fast horse came from afar, and the person on the horse seemed very happy and said, "Lord Xu, save me!" ”

Xu Zijun was excited that he had found a way to successfully avoid this catastrophe, but when he saw the person who came, a hundred grass and mud horses suddenly galloped past in his heart.
