Chapter 249: The Wind and Cloud in Beijing
To be able to stand out from the Yamen like the Gong Wei Si and sit in the position of the Gong Wei Si commanding the affairs, Jiang Haitian is naturally not a simple role.
When writing a letter, it is impossible not to take into account the possibility that the letter will fall into the hands of someone else, or that a Manichaean person will use it to blackmail him.
Therefore, the letter in the hands of Lu Jiuzhong and the others now, Jiang Haitian not only used his left hand when writing it. And there is not a single word in its content that mentions murder.
Not even the names of Manichaeism and Lu Jiuzhong are mentioned.
It's just a simple way to write down Lu Jiuzhong's routine and rest, as well as the places he often goes, and the direction where he lives in the yamen.
Therefore, if he really does what he does, he really can't be convicted. Jiang Haitian can completely use words and sophistry as before.
However, as Lu Jiuzhong said, in this matter, he said it or not, and Lu Jiuzhong said it didn't count.
The Son of Heaven said it!
Evidence is sometimes important to the Son of Heaven, but sometimes it is not important. In some things, it is enough for the Son of Heaven to doubt.
This is also the reason why when Lu Jiuzhong quietly returns and meets the Son of Heaven, he will specifically ask the Son of Heaven to send henchmen to handle the case and investigate with him.
Of course, Lu Jiuzhong is not without any evidence.
Didn't he mention it before?
Hooked up with Manichaeans.
This is not just a matter of words.
Jiang Haitian's letter is not mentioned at all, but the Manichaean people always have to come and get the letter.
When the time comes......
Therefore, after Jiang Haitian was detained, and then Lu Jiuzhong personally led people to guard here, and the Manichaean sect had to go here every night to see if there were any believers who were directly detained.
After everyone was stolen, Lu Jiuzhong returned to the capital directly with the people, preparing to hand over the matter to the Son of Heaven to make a decision.
Not to mention how Lu Jiuzhong escorted Jiang Haitian and the Manichaean people back to Beijing next.
On the other side, the people sent out by the Son of Heaven to warn Wu Duxiong and others finally met with the gray-faced Wu Duxiong and others outside the capital.
"This ...... Why are there only a few of you left?
Although when he came to this side, the chamberlain had already expected that he would probably be too late for this trip.
After all, as I said before, the two sides set off a day apart, and one day is enough time for too many things to happen.
However, Ren, the chamberlain, never expected that Wu Duxiong and the others would lose so many people. More than 20 went out, and only five fingers came back, and the loss rate was more than three-quarters!
This......
For a while, the chamberlain didn't know what to say.
At the same time, he can also have foreseen how much thunderous anger the Son of Heaven will have after he will know all this.
Not to mention the thousands of turns in the hearts of the chamberlain in front of them, Wu Duxiong and the others were also stunned when they first saw each other coming. After all, at this time, they didn't know what happened in the capital after they left.
And just when they were about to ask, the waiter's question made them swallow it directly. There is no need to show an unbearable look back on the past.
opened his mouth for a long time, but in the end he could only turn into a trace of bitterness and a sigh.
Seeing that Wu Duxiong and the others didn't seem to want to talk about this, although the inner servant was extremely puzzled, he still resisted the curiosity in his heart. After all, the chamberlain in front of him can stand out from so many chamberlains in the palace, in addition to luck, he naturally has ability.
Therefore, it can be seen that the current situation is eventful, and the court is in urgent need of manpower in all aspects.
So even if these people in front of them made a big mistake and caused a lot of losses to the imperial court, the Son of Heaven would not kill anyone. When the time comes, with the ability of the few people in front of him, sooner or later he will have to recover.
Even so, then why should he hate the other party.
Therefore, he directly missed this topic, and briefly mentioned a series of things that happened in the capital during this time, and why he appeared here with Wu Duxiong and others.
And it was at this time that Wu Duxiong and others knew that King Wuling had actually died a long time ago. And the people of the Lou family also went to Huangquan on the same day and died in the capital.
This made them, like the Son of Heaven, not understand why Bai Li would kill the killer so easily, and at the same time, they couldn't help but feel that it was not worth it for themselves and others to pay during this time.
Especially the Zongzheng of the Zongzheng Mansion.
Originally, as the head of the Zongzheng Mansion, he has always had a transcendent status. In normal times, even the Son of Heaven has to be in awe for three points, but because of the matter of the King of Martial Spirits, Zongzheng Mansion and the Son of Heaven are separated.
Even in order to prove their innocence, to show that this matter has nothing to do with them. The people in Zongzheng Mansion got up early in the dark during this time, and they were all tears when they talked too much.
As a result, they are now told that this man is in fact long dead.
Die early, die early, you say it early!
During this time, we are all playing in vain, fighting wits and courage with the air, right?
Not to mention the roar in Zong Zheng's heart, seeing that this loss was also lost, it was too late. It was useless to say anything else, so the chamberlain directly invited Wu Duxiong and others to return to the capital together, preparing to deal with the Son of Heaven.
And Wu Duxiong and others also have the heart that it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided. Speeding up to the capital under the moonlight, they prepared to report the details of their trip, and were ready to face the criticism of the Son of Heaven.
Not to mention the people and horses who are heading to the capital from these two sides, at this time, the capital, in the Xuanzheng Palace.
The Son of Heaven is listening to the report of his subordinates.
And the content of the report is related to the rebellion in the capital that night before, and the loss of the rebellion in the land of Sanfu.
Needless to say, the rebellion in the land of Sanfu was raised.
As mentioned before, the reason why the Manichaeans made such a big fuss. Except for a small part of the reason, which was that the people who took revenge on the imperial court killed them in Bingzhou, the fundamental reason was to divert the attention of the imperial court and pave the way for their next actions in the capital.
And now, the operation in the capital has been successful, and that volume of their Manichaean treasure, the Great Second Sect Diagram, has arrived. Therefore, it is naturally not necessary for the Manichaean people to have a hard time with the people of the imperial court in the land of Sanfu, and it is in vain.
After all, the cult is not so easy to recruit people these days, the cannon fodder below is a little better, and the loss of one in the middle level is one less.
Therefore, soon, except for those who are hidden in the land of the three auxiliaries, they are still preparing to continue to operate in the land of the three auxiliaries in the future, and all the rest have been evacuated.
And without the support of Manichaeism, what can a group of ordinary chaotic people do in this high-martial world?
In addition, Zhou Fashang, the general of the Right Dragon Wuwei, had already cleared most of it, so it was only a day or two, and there was good news from the previous side, reporting that the rebellion of Sanfu had all been pacified.
The Gyeonggi region was completely returned to the hands of the imperial court.
However, this chaos is settled, which does not mean that this matter is over. This series of things related to construction and pacification after the suppression of the chaos is the real trouble.
Not to mention anything else, just the cost of this silver money, there is a southeast!
And in the face of such a huge number, even if the imperial court has a big business, it is a little unbearable. After all, although the imperial court has a lot of inputs, there are also a lot of places that need to be spent.
Therefore, it is better to make the Son of Heaven hate the initiators of all this even more, that is, Manichaeism and Baili and others!
