Chapter 330: The Golden Lotus Academy has made meritorious contributions
Early in the morning, Zhu Zhen hummed a little song, rode the Pingtian Great Sage, and swayed out of the palace to go to school.
Although Tai Chi can also be ridden, His Royal Highness is reluctant to ride, for fear that if he breaks the bear's waist, he will regret it. Therefore, bull riding is still the main means of travel.
The officers and soldiers guarding the gate also liked him to ride a bull, and if His Royal Highness the King of Chu rode a panda in and out, it would be too devastating for their nerves.
After greeting Na Lu Qianhu, Wang Defa led the big green cow out of Donghua Gate.
"Sixth Master." Hearing someone call, Zhu Zhen tilted his head and saw that it was Zhang Hu.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Zhen frowned slightly, after Shen Liuniang was sent by him to Jiangnan on a business trip, Zhang Hu was in charge of the Golden Lotus Courtyard.
Zhu Zhen agreed with him that he would submit himself a summary of information on a regular basis, and that urgent or important information could be reported directly......
"The sixth master looks at it." Zhang Hu took out a folding sheet from his arms.
Zhu Zhen took it and opened it to see a conversation between the two. He took a quick look and saw that the two sides of the conversation were old friends he hadn't seen for years.
One surnamed Ma is from Bianliang, Beijing. A native of Nanjing, surnamed Niu.
Ma was passing through Nanjing and made a special trip to see the cattle. The ox held a banquet for him in the Golden Lotus Temple.
After the two reminisced, they talked about the hottest topic in Nanjing City-Qin Jinyan, the three highnesses, joined the Northern Expedition as low-level officers, and also made great achievements!
Niu felt that His Royal Highnesses the three princes were really powerful, and they deserved to be the emperor's species.
But Ma took a different view: "The more powerful they are, the greater the calamity for the common people in the future." ’
Zhu Zhen now has a 'Jinyi Guard' to collect intelligence, and he knows that Ma's view has been very popular recently, and it is not his originality, but the wisdom of Ye Boju.
Sure enough, after turning the page, the topic of the two turned to Ye Boju. Ma began to praise Ye Boju, saying that he was prescient and worried about the country and the people, but he was about to be shot to death by the emperor.
Niu said that it seemed that Ye Boju was not shot to death, but was just locked up in a prison.
The horse sneered and said, 'That's good, we can see their deaths.' ’
The cow was puzzled and asked, 'Who?' ’
'Who else?' That's what I just said. Ma replied, "Look at it, their death is not far off, and they will definitely not be able to return to Nanjing." ’
Hearing this, Niu should have been frightened, and hurriedly drank to stop the horse, not letting him talk nonsense, and then the two of them drank for a while and dispersed.
But Zhu Zhen noticed that before the banquet was dismissed, Ma said again, 'What I said is true, you can just wait and see.' ’
~~
After reading the monitoring record, King Chu's expression became serious.
"What about people?"
"Sixth master, don't worry, both of them are staring at it." Zhang Hu hurriedly said: "Because the matter is too big, I don't dare to act rashly." ”
"Got it, whether it's a false alarm or not, let's arrest people first." Zhu Zhen's thinking is very clear.
"Yes." Zhang Hu responded and hurried to go.
As a result, when he went to the Chengyi Bofu to take classes, Zhu Zhen was a little absent-minded, which made Mr. Liu very unhappy - it's okay if you kid doesn't study hard, and you can't teach the old man well!
I got out of class early and didn't stay for dinner.
Zhu Zhen apologized to the master, and hurriedly left the Chengyi Bo Mansion and came to the Pro-Army Governor's Mansion.
After the ceremony, Liu Ying personally greeted him.
"Your Highness." Liu Ying saluted respectfully.
"What's the matter, Brother Liu was also alarmed?" Zhu Zhen asked.
"Yes." Liu Ying nodded and said in a deep voice: "It is related to the safety of several highnesses, and it is absolutely not allowed to be sloppy." ”
"Have you caught anybody?" Zhu Zhen asked as he followed Liu Ying inside.
"Caught." Liu Ying nodded and led Zhu Zhen to the door of the dungeon.
Before the big iron door was opened, a foul smell came out of the cracks.
"The taste is a little ...... below" Liu Ying looked at the King of Chu with some concern, and just wanted to ask if he wanted to bring the prisoner up.
saw Zhu Zhen's face, I don't know when there was a thick white mask......
"Let's go." Zhu Zhen said.
"Well, good." Liu Ying came back to her senses and hurriedly asked people to open the cell door.
~~
The dungeon is dark and damp, as always. But compared with when Liao Yongzhong was imprisoned, it was much more lively here, and most of the cells were in charge of people.
Most of these are suspects who have been discovered by secret agents using various means. But the pro-army Governor's Mansion is a security department after all, and it is not good at taking the initiative to spy on the enemy. So far, there has been no much valuable gain.
Liu Ying was also labeled as 'not suitable for spies' by Boss Zhu because of this.
He really hoped that he would be able to make a contribution this time, so that the emperor would not be so disappointed. So as soon as the man was caught, he personally interrogated him.
As soon as he entered the interrogation room, Zhu Zhen almost didn't throw up.
I saw that the two people had been tossed into two blood gourds, and there was no good skin on their bodies.
"They've all gone." Liu Yingfeng recorded the interrogation: "The one surnamed Niu should be an ordinary businessman, and he was unlucky; The surname Ma is wonderful-ostensibly a silk merchant who came to Nanjing to buy goods. Privately, it's still Mingjiao.,The contact between the White Lotus Sect and his mother's Maitreya Sect.。 ”
"Contacts of the three companies?" Zhu Zhen asked.
"Yes, it's for sending letters between them." Liu Yingdao: "According to him, he is actually not a disciple of any family, he is an outsider. Because he often had to travel between the north and the south, he would bring letters to people along the way, and of course he would collect money. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to a few crumpled pieces of paper on the table that were as thin as cicada's wings and said, "This was found on him." But it's all secret language, and I can't figure out what is written. ”
Zhu Zhen picked up Zhang and took a look, and it was really the same as a book from heaven. But this is normal, those secret Taoist associations all use the secret language of the Spring Ceremony to deliver messages.
"Can you decipher it?"
"I can only tell that this one should be Mingjiao, this one is Maitreya's, and this one is Bailian's." Liu Ying sighed lightly and said, "But what exactly was said, no one can understand it yet." ”
"This is something he hasn't handed over yet, or is he going to take it away?" Zhu Zhen asked in a deep voice.
"I'm going to take it away." Liu Ying said: "They don't see each other, they all put the letter in the agreed place. I've had people go and search the places he said......"
"I'm ......" Zhu Zhen couldn't help but burst into a rough sentence when he heard this. The father said that Liu Ying is not suitable for spy work, and he is really right.
"What's wrong?"
"Now everyone knows that the person surnamed Ma has been arrested." Zhu Zhen smiled helplessly: "Let's not talk about this - how did he know that someone was going to do something to my brothers?" ”
At this time, a blood gourd raised his head with difficulty and glanced at Zhu Zhen. I guess I didn't expect that I would recruit a prince, and it was such a young prince.
"Your surname is Ma?" Zhu Zhen nodded politely to him and said, "Then you can tell it yourself." ”
"What I heard in Bianliang ......" the man replied weakly, "The three sects must unite and assassinate the king." ”
