After being reprimanded by the people of Dongchang, Li Qingxiang left the palace with a blushing face, followed by Zhang Qian, the commander.

"Your people went to the Nanqianhu House, why did they die?"

Li Qingxiang's question made Zhang Qian speechless, and he also had a big head at the moment.

Naturally, he killed the person, and if Dongchang interrogated the person who tried the case by Jinyiwei, this matter was likely to be shaken out.

As the commander of Jinyiwei, Zhang Qian is indeed a great figure in Beijing, but he can't bear it when it comes to it.

Being able to mix with the command of the Jinyi Guard, Zhang Qian is naturally a thick-faced and black-hearted person, but at this moment, I saw him calmly replied: "My lord, those two traitors committed suicide by biting their tongues, and it has nothing to do with whether they sent someone to try the case!" ”

Stopping, Li Qingxiang looked at Zhang Qian, and said in a calm tone: "Really? I'm afraid...... The people of Dongchang don't believe it! ”

"Dongchang has always been on good terms with us, if they want to frame us, they can only admit it!"

Zhang Qian's call is to retreat into advance, and then it depends on what Li Qingxiang says.

After all, they are all Jinyiwei's people, if Zhang Qianzhen is "framed", he Li Qingxiang will not only have a bad face, but he will not be able to sit firmly on the chair under his buttocks.

"Did you tell me that?" Li Qingxiang sneered.

"Humble duty is just a truthful reply!" Zhang Qianmian does not change color.

"Really? Since you are telling the truth, why don't you tell the truth? ”

Speaking of this, Li Qingxiang asked coldly: "What's going on with this matter?" ”

"It's related to King Rui, do you really want to know?"

Li Qingxiang became more and more serious and said: "Can I still stay out of the matter? ”

It's really such a reason, the assassination of the prince is a big case, and if Jinyiwei has something disgraceful in it, it will indeed be a catastrophe for Li Qingxiang.

Under Li Qingxiang's questioning, Zhang Qian explained the situation again, and only said that the person who was killed had something to do with King Rui.

This news alone can spread a lot of possibilities, but Li Qingxiang didn't have the heart to think about it.

Just because of the possibility of being unfavorable to King Rui, even if it is the truth, he can't and doesn't dare to verify it.

On this side, the senior officials of the Jinyi Guard were discussing countermeasures, and on the other side, the Wuying Gate had been opened, and the envoys of the countries had been allowed to enter in turn.

The sun is already setting in the west, and the time for the feast is approaching.

As the host of the banquet, the crown prince Zhu Jingyuan, surrounded by eunuchs and palace maids, appeared outside Wuyingmen.

A group of senior generals and nobles greeted them under the leadership of Zhu Jinghong.

"Wait for the Crown Prince to see His Royal Highness!"

"Excuse me!" Zhu Jingyuan was as gentle as ever, which made everyone present feel like a spring breeze.

I only heard Zhu Jinghong say loudly: "Generals, the prince is kind-hearted, and the foreign envoys don't know etiquette and education, so I'm afraid that they will be despised!" ”

"You are my pillars, you have to take a stand up for a while and support the scene for the prince!"

Zhu Jingyuan was really worried, so he invited Zhu Jinghong over, but he didn't expect this brother to arrange it more thoroughly.

"We are the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, and we should defend His Royal Highness the Prince, why bother the Thirteenth Master to make a special order!"

"The Thirteenth Master has been too worried, now that my Ming country is rich and strong, who dares to stir up trouble today?"

Listening to everyone's discussions, Zhu Jinghong spoke again: "That's not necessarily, for example, the last time the Japanese envoy made trouble, many envoys jumped up and down!" ”

"This time the Dzungars came to Beijing, and I heard that the envoys of various countries also had changes, and you can't be careless!"

Originally, today was Zhu Jingyuan's home field, but it was Zhu Jinghong who kept talking, and this scene was weird no matter how you looked at it.

Zhu Jinghong also realized this problem, so he immediately turned to his brother and said, "Fourth brother, do you think what I said makes sense?" ”

I only heard Zhu Jingyuan say: "Hmm...... What you say has its own reason, and today you have all of you with you, and you can be alone! ”

Not to mention, Zhu Jingyuan's sincere expression really has the effect of moving people, which is indeed a skill.

"Let's go, let's go in!"

"Fourth brother, please!"

Under the guidance of Zhu Jinghong, a group of generals made way for Zhu Jingyuan to pass smoothly.

After he walked by, Zhu Jinghong and a group of generals followed, and dozens of people surrounded Zhu Jingyuan and stepped into Wuyingmen together.

Strictly speaking, today's Wuying Hall is not without a single civil official, such as the Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple.

But they did not come to the banquet, but to serve as banquet hosts and ceremonial guides.

There were a lot of people attending the banquet today, so it was held in the open air, and hundreds of tables were already set up, and the drinks and dishes were already set up on them.

The envoys of the nations were talking, and the scene was particularly noisy and harsh.

And when Zhu Jingyuan appeared, there was a majestic drum sound, which gradually quieted down the scene.

Everyone's eyes converged on Zhu Jingyuan's body, and then all kinds of strange words sounded in a low voice.

Along the middle royal road, Zhu Jingyuan walked all the way to the front of the Wuying Palace, where his position had been set.

The generals sat down close to the position, and Zhu Jinghong also stopped at the foot of the imperial stairs.

Next, the envoys of various countries worshiped the prince, and he naturally did not want to follow him.

After Zhu Jingyuan sat down, there were three drums on the scene, and under the prompting of the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, the envoys of all countries faced the main hall, and then bowed down respectfully.

"Knock on the prince, the prince Chitose Chitose!"

The accent was very messy, and I could barely make out the sentence.

And Zhu Jingyuan's voice was also shouted by dozens of guards standing in front of the hall, spreading the words "free of courtesy" throughout the scene.

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong caught an old acquaintance and asked him to introduce him to the envoys of various countries.

"Thirteenth Master, those people are the Zasaks, the Tushetu people on their left, and the ...... on their right"

Shi Nianxing detailed that the Japanese envoy was flattened before, and it was the palace he brought into.

"Where are the Dzungars?" Zhu Jinghong asked directly.

"In ...... Where, right under the light pole in front! ”

Following the direction of Shi Nianxing's finger, Zhu Jinghong saw the Junggar mission, these people were really much more rebellious, and they all looked at the wolf with a hawkish look.

The ceremony continued, but Zhu Jinghong felt bored, so he looked at Niu Jizong beside him.

"Niu Dudu, they all say that Dzungar has anti-intentions, what do you think about this?"

"This ...... Thirteenth master, the minister really can't say! ”

Zhu Jinghong said disapprerovantly: "How can you not be sure?" Say whatever you want! ”

"In the past few years, the Dzungars have been in constant conflict with us, but this year, after our continuous increase in troops, they have settled down again!"

Niu Jizong sighed and said, "It's the Zasak people, and now they are restless again, and things on the grassland are like this, and it will never be difficult to figure out thoroughly!" ”

"In my opinion, there will be a battle in this northwest sooner or later!"

The one who spoke was General Zhengerpin Zhaowu, the current governor of the right army and the left governor of the palace, and Liu Fang, the descendant of the Duke of Liguo, who attacked the first rank.

"How?" Zhu Jinghong asked rhetorically.

"In the northwest, both Dzungaria and Zasak have prepared a large number of weapons, which cost a lot of silver, and they get these things...... It can't be for fun! ”

I only heard Liu Fang continue: "On the side of Anxi Xingdusi, the saint has the heart of changing generals, and he is ready to go to war if he wants to come to the saint!" ”

In response to the chaos in the northwest, the first to bear the brunt is Anxi Xingdusi, and the selection of the main general is particularly important, and it just so happens that it is time for a routine change of generals.

Niu Jizong said with a serious expression: "This may not be, it still depends on the change of the situation, if the Dzungar people are willing to surrender, the battle will not be fought!" ”
