Chapter 242: Keqing is in prison

"Coming out at this time, they really want to do it on Holy Birthday?"

Li Wenzhao is extremely sure: "This is a sure thing!" ”

"What else did you hear?"

"These people are going to make trouble in the city, and according to the scattered news, they should be going to detonate gunpowder!"

"In addition, arson is also indispensable!"

What is needed for the Holy Birthday Festival is peace, if there is an explosion in the city, or if there is a large-scale fire, the Ming will lose face in front of the envoys of other countries.

Standing up, Zhu Jinghong walked to the center of the room and asked, "Where is the gunpowder?" Where are the thieves in the city? How many did you find? ”

Li Wenzhao also stood up and replied: "Back to the Thirteenth Master, thirty-six people have been found in the city, and they can be captured at any time, but ......"

Turning around, Zhu Jinghong's eyes were like torches and said, "But what? ”

"If you make a move now, you will inevitably be startled, so ...... It is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net! ”

"So what you mean?"

"I think I can wait for two more days and start on the afternoon of the 17th!"

The 18th is the Holy Birthday Day, and choosing to do it on the afternoon of the 17th is already considered a limit operation.

Even if he was as bold as Zhu Jinghong, when he heard this crazy plan, he didn't dare to express his position lightly.

After walking a few steps back and forth with his hands behind his back, Zhu Jinghong asked, "On the afternoon of the 17th, how many new people can you find?" How sure are you that you will take it down? ”

"The White Lotus Sect is good at hiding and hiding, and the one lurking in the capital is its backbone, so it will not be used easily...... So it's extremely hard to find! ”

"But if it comes to the seventeenth, the people who should move will definitely move, and the joints will be exposed, and it is also possible to find out dozens of people!"

"As for how sure you can win, as long as you have the cooperation and coordination of all government offices, the ministers are nine percent sure!"

Li Wenzhao is extremely safe in doing things, and since he dares to say that he is 90% sure, he is actually completely sure.

Sitting back in the chair, Zhu Jinghong sighed: "I have to think about it, I have to think about it!" ”

In any case, the risk is too great, and Zhu Jinghong has to be extra cautious.

"How do the various government offices cooperate, just talk to me about it!"

"Yes!"

So Li Wenzhao began to explain in detail that his plan involved the Shuntian Mansion, the command of the five cities and the commanders, and the additional guards and troops to defend the capital and the Beijing camp.

The plan was detailed and thorough, and it was clearly carefully planned.

Tapping his fingers on the tabletop, Zhu Jinghong thought about it again and replied, "This matter...... I will tell Your Majesty the Holy Judge! ”

There are so many yamen involved, and only the emperor can make decisions.

"Yes!"

"You go back first, I have to think about it again, and I will send someone to pass on to you later!"

"Yes!"

Li Wenzhao was about to leave, but when he walked to the door, he stopped.

"Thirteenth Master, there is one more thing...... I don't know whether to say it or not! ”

"Say it!"

"In the previous case of your assassination, the prisoner was taken to the Qianhu Office in Nancheng on that day, and in less than an hour, someone from the Fusi of Beizhen came, saying that this case was important and should be supervised and tried!"

Zhu Jinghong only knew that this matter was now being investigated by Dongchang, but the specific situation was not clear.

"And then?"

Hooking his waist, Li Wenzhao replied: "After the people from Beizhen Fusi came, within a moment of arraignment, everyone bit their tongues and died!" ”

"Oh? That's weird! ”

"What's even more peculiar is that seventy-eight people unexpectedly disappeared in the capital on the second day, including young and strong, old and weak, women and children!"

Originally, Zhu Jinghong still felt nothing, but when he heard the news, he was shocked, and instinctively felt that things were not simple.

"These seventy-eight people, were they found out by Dongchang?"

"The neighborhood report of the missing person was obtained by the two county officials of Yongsheng and Changlong, and then reported to the Fusi of Beizhen by the captain of the Ya School!"

"The minister overheard the lieutenant's chatter, and only then did he learn about it, and he only learned the details after reading the file!"

Seeing that Zhu Jinghong was listening carefully, Li Wenzhao then replied: "Knowing this strange thing, the minister sent someone to conduct a preliminary investigation, and found that the missing people were the family members of the two criminals, and more than 70 people who disappeared had some contact with each other!" ”

"It seems that things are not simple, such a method...... It's quite a meaning of shutting off the tail to survive! Zhu Jinghong frowned.

"Exactly!"

It seems that the last incident was indeed a well-thought-out assassination against himself, so who would be the mastermind behind it?

Isn't it the White Lotus Sect? Could it be the sixth? Or maybe it could be ......

Obviously, Zhu Jinghong can't trust his two brothers.

After all, he can disguise his character, and the other two can.

Even if he is as weak as the prince, who knows if he pretended to be obedient in order to avoid the emperor's edge.

At this time, Zhu Jinghong was expecting the White Lotus Sect, which would at least make him more willing to accept it.

And if these two brothers were him, it would be impossible for Dongchang Jinyiwei to find out the truth.

After the rise of the ancestors, the two bloody massacres of the royal family constructed a chain of suspicion between the princes, making it difficult for them to trust their brothers.

Even Zhu Jinghong himself didn't realize that in just half a year, he had gradually become a political creature.

In fact, this is also to blame Li Wenzhao for being too cautious, if he points out the relationship between Zhang Qian and Zhu Jingyuan, Zhu Jinghong can easily think that it is related to the sixth child.

But Li Wenzhao didn't dare, just because he couldn't afford the crime of separating the prince, so he chose to pretend to be confused here.

At least now, he hasn't completely surrendered to Zhu Jinghong's court, so he can't put himself in his shoes.

Sighing, Zhu Jinghong asked again, "What else did you find?" ”

"Back to the Thirteenth Master, because the manpower is too tight, the people arranged by the minister are ...... No anomalies found! ”

Pinching the lid of the teacup, Zhu Jinghong played with the hot air rising from the mouth of the cup, and then asked: "Since this case is sponsored by Dongchang, do they have any news over there?" ”

"On the Dongchang side, the captain who participated in the interrogation was first arraigned, and then the neighbor who reported the case was called for questioning, and I heard that the Qin family was questioned again today, and it has not been ...... so far."

didn't wait for Li Wenzhao to finish speaking, he heard Zhu Jinghong say dumbly: "Qin family? Which Qin family? ”

"It's the Qin family sister and brother who rode the horse when the thirteenth master traveled that day!"

"It's really them!"

After saying this, Zhu Jinghong immediately slapped the table: "How can it be related to them, Dongchang is in a hurry to go to the doctor!" ”

"People are sent to the Dongchang prison, won't those people be tortured? Wronged good people in vain! ”

Although he is not familiar with the original work, Zhu Jinghong also knows that the Qin family has always been responsible, so how can he get involved in these things.

Just as Zhu Jinghong wanted to go to Dongchang to have a look, there were eunuchs rushing outside, and looking at his appearance, he could tell that he was from the Qianqing Palace.

"Thirteenth Master, the Lord has an oracle ......"

Hearing this, all the eunuchs serving inside and outside the house knelt down, and Zhu Jinghong and Li Wenzhao were no exception.

"The lord said, I will send you to the Qianqing Palace immediately to meet you!"

"Go now?"

"Exactly!" The eunuch replied simply.

"You go back to your life first, and I'll go as soon as I arrange something!"

"Yes!"

Immediately, Zhu Jinghong immediately shouted: "Deng An, pass Deng An over!" ”

Deng An is his most powerful minion, and now that the emperor summons 100,000 urgent, he can only hand over the matter of going to Dongchang to Deng An.

Deng An shouldn't be on duty in the morning, this guy is hiding from playing cards with a group of little eunuchs, and the atmosphere in the room is very lively.

Although he had a good time, when the messenger came, this guy didn't even want the money he won, and rushed to Chengming Courtyard as quickly as possible.

It only took three minutes for this guy to appear in front of Zhu Jinghong out of breath.

"Tell me about you!"

"Please...... Please command the Thirteenth Master! ”

"Dongchang arrested two people today, one is called Qin Zhong and the other is Qin Keqing, both of them are my friends!"

"You go and say hello to Dongchang, and just say my words...... Thou shalt not torture these two, for they are innocent! ”

Deng An listened carefully while thinking about strategy.

Dongchang has a transcendent status in the inner court, and it is not easy to go to this place to "give orders".

"If you can, you can bring people out for me!"

Looking at Deng An, who was kneeling in front of him, Zhu Jinghong said in a deep voice: "Do you understand?" ”

"I understand, please rest assured!"

"I still don't have to worry about you doing things, otherwise I won't be looking for you!" To let his subordinates do things, Zhu Jinghong did not hesitate to praise him.

Of course, what he said is also true, Deng An is indeed a capable subordinate.

"The thirteenth master is trustworthy, and the slave is grateful!"

"Okay, let's go to the East Factory!"

"Yes!"

Seeing Deng An leaving, Li Wenzhao did not stay any longer, and after saluting, he also said goodbye and left.

As for Zhu Jinghong, he also rushed straight to the direction of Qianqing Palace, and the emperor didn't dare to be too lazy when he summoned him.

What's more, today, he has to tell his father in detail about Li Wenzhao's plan, and ask him to make a final decision.
