Chapter 620: Double-edged sword
The waiter of the Criminal Department looked at Shen Nian's unfazed face, but he was a little unsure of what the number of ways to go, and after thinking about it, he still had to see the emperor before making a conclusion.
When he arrived at the imperial study, Yin saw the two of them coming together, and he already knew what was wrong, so he didn't speak, and his eyes looked at Shen Nianyi first.
The squire of the criminal department took the first step and passed the emperor's edict to the prince Shi in the palace, and the people of the criminal department withdrew from the city gate, and when they arrived at the palace gate, they were stopped by those guards, and they refused to let go After speaking, seeing that the emperor was not angry, he had to stand still.
Yin Zhi called someone in, and said in a deep voice: "Find Gonggong Shi." ”
The waiter of the Criminal Department only then understood that this oracle was probably false, otherwise why bother to find someone to come over and confront him.
"Shen Aiqing, what's the matter with you?" Yin didn't expect things to become more and more complicated, so many people were sent out, the palace was set on fire, the four masters of Jinghua Shuiyue, and the loss of three at the same time did not count, Sun Shining still did not keep it, I am afraid that at this time, the manpower of the criminal department will be withdrawn, and it will be out of the city.
It's no wonder that Shen Nianyi is not in a hurry to chase it, out of the city, the range of east, west, north and south is too large, and I don't know whether to take the official road or there is another wild trail, in this case, how to track, it is better to come back and deploy it well.
"The people should have left the city." Shen Nianyi's answer was not much different from what he thought, "No wonder they've been waiting." ”
"What I am waiting for is that a chess piece that is so deep in ambush has become an outcast, and Yiyantang is really willing to pay the capital." Yin Zhi sneered slightly.
Soon, he went out to find someone and came back: "If you go back to the emperor, no one saw Gonggong Shi early in the morning, and I asked everywhere, some people said that he took the token and went out of the palace, and went to Gonggong Yang and Gonggong Sha to ask too, but it was still unsuccessful, Gonggong Yang knew that something was wrong, and he had come over together." ”
"Call him in." Some things are like this, when you don't get the answer, you can't guess who the final person is, and once it's completely revealed, you can't think about it.
There must be more than one chess piece buried in the court in Yiyantang, if it weren't for the six princes who inherited the unification that day, Gonggong Yang and the two apprentices would have been worthless long ago.
Yang Gonggong was uneasy, and when he arrived in front of the emperor, he knelt down directly and said: "Your Majesty, it's me who is not good at employing people, I don't know, I don't know that kid is actually an undercover agent of Yiyantang." ”
Yin Zhi looked down at him from a high place and said, "It's too late to say this now." ”
Gonggong Yang couldn't help kowtowing in fear in his heart: "Your Majesty, no matter how you say that he is my apprentice, even if you don't know it, you can't escape the blame." ”
"Father-in-law Yang, it's best not to say the words lightly." Yin Zhi directly blocked his words, "I understand that you are loyal, and it is inevitable that you will have a careful work under your hands, and at this time he will give up his net worth and life, but he can afford to put it down, rather than completely exposing it in the future, it is not a bad thing to show the true face of Lushan earlier." ”
There was no obvious meaning of blame between his words, Yang Gonggong was already shocked by a layer of cold sweat behind his back, the servant of the criminal department knelt down at some point, his face turned pale, knowing that the credit for defending the city had flown away directly, if the emperor really investigated it, the entire criminal department would be unavoidable.
"Okay, okay, I know everything, I don't blame you, go out and do your own thing, Gonggong Yang doesn't have to kneel, all quit, I and Shen Aiqing will say a few more important words."
When the waiter of the criminal department heard that this meant to be exempted, he quickly kowtowed a few times and walked out quickly.
"Although I don't want to punish anyone, the Criminal Department is not cautious first, and it is true that it is not allowed to provoke the main beam for the time being, and in the future, Dali Temple will still come out alone, and directly obey my orders, and there is no need to go through the Criminal Department, and there will be more such procedures."
As soon as the emperor's words came out, the second layer of cold sweat behind the servant of the criminal department came out again, he knew that when the emperor took office, he intended to weaken the rights of Dali Temple, so he delegated part of his authority to the criminal department.
But because of the rebellion of a eunuch, the future of the entire criminal department is worrying, and the waiter of the criminal department secretly gritted his teeth, so he had to leave a sentence, thank the emperor for not punishing him, and went disgraced.
When the door of the imperial study was closed, Yin Zhi sneered: "He still feels unwilling. ”
Shen Nianyi acquiesced in this sentence, the most anxious person at this time should be the only one, Sun Shining is his wife, his whereabouts are unknown, life and death are uncertain, just because of this omission in the Criminal Department.
"If he were more careful, instead of rejoicing in his achievements, he should have thought that it was an edict from the Empress Dowager that day, asking the Criminal Department to assist you in finding Sun Shining, and now how could he easily let a eunuch next to me casually pass on a message, which is equivalent to not putting the Empress Dowager in his eyes, I will not make such a low-level mistake."
Yin Zhi's eyebrows furrowed: "Shen Aiqing, she has been taken out of the city?" ”
"Wei Chen is thinking, this mastermind behind the scenes is probably Sun Shining's acquaintance." This thought had actually flashed in Shen Nianyi's mind several times, but he felt that it was not so simple to find such a person in the right way, so he overturned it several times.
However, as soon as the matter of Gonggong Shi came out, this idea was clearly revealed again, and he said it directly in front of the emperor.
"You mean, Sun Shining knows this person!"
"Yes, it's an acquaintance who committed the crime."
"Sun Shining colluded with him!"
"There is no evidence for this, but Weichen understands one thing, even if they get out of Tiandu City, there is only one place they can go, except for Liangzhao Mountain, there is nothing else."
"I can't let go of my hands and take you to Liangzhao Mountain, this is not allowed." Yin Zhi paced slowly in the room and said, "Even the three hundred people like the last time are not allowed, otherwise, once King Wuya has doubts, I am afraid that the truce will be wasted." ”
"Wechen didn't dare to ask the emperor to make such a big sacrifice, Wechen thought about it, he must catch up, here to Liangzhao Mountain, with her, I'm afraid it will take three days, Wechen only brings a few cronies, hurry up, maybe be able to catch up with them."
"You took your cronies away, what should you do in Dali Temple, and give it to Ji Min?" Yin Zhi looked at him sideways, and every word was a kind of pressure.
"Dali Temple is not something that Weichen said he could let if he wanted to, how the emperor weighed the pros and cons in his heart is the most important, and for Weichen, finding Sun Shining and ensuring that she is safe and sound is the most important."
Yin Zhi was obviously satisfied with his next few words, nodded and said, "What I said is that she must be found and brought back." ”
He paused, and suddenly asked whimsically: "I ask you, even the eunuchs around me are all meticulous works, if Sun Shining really joined forces with acquaintances and set up a situation to trap you, what will happen after you know the truth?" ”
"She won't."
"I'm just talking about a possibility."
"She won't, anyone around the emperor may look more or less suspicious, and even I may be bought by Yiyantang, but Shining she won't." Shen Nianyi said so surely, so resolutely, his eyes were full of trust.
"Okay, very good." Yin Zhi smiled slightly and nodded, "In this case, without further ado, you just have to chase her, who you want to bring, it's up to you to decide, there are still 5,000 people on the border, I give you a military order, if necessary, you can call all these 5,000 people." ”
Shen Nianyi was very grateful in his heart, knowing that it was very rare for the emperor to make such a choice, so he immediately knelt down and bowed: "Weichen thanked the emperor for Shining Longen." ”
A small bag was thrown in front of him, and Yinzhi's voice was as solid as a rock: "The things in this, it is best not to use them without authorization, you know, some people are double-edged swords, they can hurt the enemy, and they can also hurt themselves." ”
Shen Nianyi took the bag with both hands and carefully took it down.
"Ji Min can't grab your position, he is not a stupid person, he can sit firmly in the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, he should be content, otherwise, he is too greedy, but it is not beneficial at both ends, I will not let him dominate the entire Dali Temple, you can go with confidence, even if you want to remove your position, I will find a capable person to take over."
Shen Nian repeatedly saluted and slowly withdrew from the imperial study, but saw that Gonggong Yang had not left, and several little eunuchs came back and forth to pass the word, and Gonggong Sha must have also gotten the news, rushed over to guard the master, and comforted him repeatedly.
"Lord Shen." Yang Gonggong called him in a trembling voice, "He, how can he be a spy of Yiyantang?" ”
"I don't know, now he's no longer in the palace."
"However, he entered the palace at the age of five, and the family outside has long forgotten everything about what happened when he was a child." Sha Gonggong asked urgently, "Such a person will also be meticulous?" ”
"Yiyantang is up and down the government and the opposition, there are eyeliners inside and outside the palace, and there are dark chess, he is not alone, he is far from alone." Shen Nianyi comforted Father-in-law Yang for two sentences, "Father-in-law should be glad that the emperor is a wise monarch and does not do anything to anger him." ”
"Lord Shen, I don't understand, this kid is the best at being a person and doing things on weekdays." Gonggong Yang thought for a while before saying, "If he leaves the palace, he may not be willing to leave Tiandu City, he must have to wait and see, I know that he once bought an outer house, and these people still live in it, I wrote the address to Lord Shen, hoping to find some clues, if Lord Shen captures him, just say a word to him." ”
"Okay, I'll pass on my father-in-law's words." Shen Nianyi took the note from his hand.
"I just say that the master-apprentice relationship over the years has been exhausted, and he is no longer my apprentice." After Yang Gonggong said this, he waved his hand and staggered forward, Sha Gonggong glanced at Shen Nian quickly, and then chased after him and held the master's arm.
