Xu Beiyou was silent for a long time, and asked softly: "Does Mr. know about this?"

"Maybe you know, you may not know. Zhang Wuxian shook his head and said: "Although Duke Wen was the leader of the Han Party back then, he may not be able to know everything about the affairs of the Han Party, and the affairs of the Xu family are caused by the secret decree of the Queen Mother, so I guess Duke Wen should not fully know about this, as for how I know, then I have to mention my old friend who is a little friend." ”

"Wei Wuji?" asked Xu Beiyou.

"It's him. Zhang Wuxi nodded and said: "At that time, he had already served in the Secret Guard Mansion, although his position was not too high, but he belonged to the henchmen of the former emperor, his status was quite transcendent, and he knew many things that ordinary people could not know. ”

Xu Beiyou asked in a deep voice, "What role did Wei Wuji play in it back then?"

Zhang Wuxi shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Xu Beiyou asked again: "Where is Lan Xiang?"

Zhang Wuxian groaned for a while, and said softly: "Maybe I know, even if I didn't know it at the time, but after so many years, with Lan Xiang's strong strength in the temple, I should be able to find out many clues." ”

Xu Beiyou finally asked, "That...... What about Your Majesty today?"

This time, Zhang Wuxian did not hesitate, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty must know, not to mention that Your Majesty has been in power all these years, many things can be traced to the end, and before the death of the Queen Mother, she will inevitably explain this matter, so that Your Majesty will not be pro-government with many suspicions." ”

Xu Beiyou didn't ask any further.

There are so many secret facts hidden behind the scenes, how can anyone else know everything except the person behind the scenes?

Even the Sword Sect had done such things back then, if not, why did the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall be set up? Not to mention the Dao Gate and the Imperial Court, the Secret Guard Mansion and the Demon Suppression Hall were like two staggered blades, cutting this splendid world to pieces, in the final analysis, it was a contest between those chess players, today I calculated your hand, tomorrow you will return my hand, and most of the dead are just chess pieces.

Xu Beiyou solemnly said: "Thank you seniors for solving your doubts." ”

Zhang Wuxian waved his hand.

The two continued to eat, really abiding by the rule of eating without saying a word, and did not say a word, and finally the table full of dishes was only half eaten, and the wine was drunk.

Zhang Wuxian asked people to remove a table of leftovers and serve tea again.

Xu Beiyou took a sip of tea foam with a tea lid, "If the journey to the imperial capital goes smoothly in the north, when the wedding comes, the seniors must come to drink a glass of wine." ”

Zhang Wuxian smiled: "That's nature. ”

......

The Dark Guard Mansion, whose name belongs to the ranks of the Nine Streams, ranks last in the Nine Streams.

The reason why this is so is not because the strength of the Dark Guard Mansion is too weak, but because the Dark Guard Mansion is not quite like a sect, but more like a yamen.

Unlike the major forbidden armies, which are only divided into left and right governors, the Dark Guard Mansion also has the position of Palm Seal Governor, becoming the nominal chief official of the Dark Guard Mansion.

The reason why it is said to be the nominal chief official is because although the governor of the palm seal has the highest rank and the most powerful, he cannot dominate the other two governors, and the three are directly under His Majesty the Emperor, so the three governors do not have too clear distinction between superior and inferior, and they become a three-legged situation.

Today's Governor of the Secret Guard Mansion is Duanmu Ruisheng, whose main responsibility is to supervise the internal affairs of the imperial court, including the three divisions and yamen in various places, and if the emperor has a will to arrest a high-ranking official, he will take action. Zuo Du Du is Fu Zhongtian, who is responsible for dealing with all kinds of monks, especially to pay close attention to the movements of the Daomen, and the original Chonglongguan matter was from his plan. The right governor is Wei Wuji, targeting the major forbidden armies, so the arrest of Chen Qiong, the former left governor of the rear army, was brought forward by Wei Wuji.

The three of them do not violate the river water, but if they encounter a major case, they will also work together to handle the case under the will of His Majesty, such as the case of Chen Qiong, because it involves Xiao Jin, the king of Wei, and the Daomen Town Demon Palace, so Fu Zhongtian and Duanmu Ruisheng are also involved, but Wei Wuji is the main one, and the two are supplemented.

It is precisely because Wei Wuji has the right to "supervise the army" that he has also become the only right governor in the entire court who is not inferior to the left governor, and even in a sense, he is slightly higher than several left governors who hold military power.

Wei Wuji's original name was Wei Xianji, and in his early years, he participated in the Red Turban Army Rebellion with Zhang Dingguo, who had not yet changed his name to Zhang Wuji, and later returned to Emperor Xiao together and was given the name Wuji.

Wei Wuji's nickname is the human cat, in fact, this nickname did not start with him, but originated from Li Yifu during the reign of Emperor Wu, when Li Yifu was an official to the Zhongshu Order, it can be said that it is above 10,000 people under one person, and he flattered himself in front of Emperor Wu, and he wantonly messed with the law outside, and all officials were afraid, no one dared to say anything wrong, and he could only call it "Li Mao" behind his back, saying that his appearance was supple and his heart was insidious, after Li Yifu learned about it, he was not ashamed, but called himself a cat among people, so he had the saying of "human cat".

The reason why Wei Wuji got this obviously derogatory nickname was because of a great thing he did during the ten years of peace.

Among the four major guards at the beginning, although Zhang Wuji was the first to ascend to the high position of governor, Wei Wuji was the first to be valued by Emperor Xiao and made a career.

As early as the seventh year of Taiping, he entered the criminal department, and then tossed and turned in the ministry and the household department, taking the civil official route, at that time the hundred officials often borrowed money from the household department, resulting in a deficit in the treasury, and in the tenth year of Taiping, Emperor Xiao ordered by Xiao Gongyu, an important minister of the clan, and Wei Wuji, who was the right attendant of the household department, to recover the treasury debt.

At that time, Xiao Gongyu was mainly in charge of the clan and nobles, while Wei Wuji was in charge of various civil and military officials, the clan and the nobles were good to say, there were many industries in the imperial capital, and it was not difficult to repay the money, but those debtors were all from the Qingshui Yamen, and most of them were literati who did not know how to make a living, and even the houses were rented, so where did they have the money to repay their debts.

At this time, Wei Wuji was young and vigorous, but also because he wanted to seize the opportunity to climb to the sky too much, too eager for quick success, if he was unable to repay the debt, he personally led people to raid the house, and after successively raiding more than a dozen officials who were unable to repay the debt, he finally made an overwhelmed old minister who committed suicide by hanging the beam, this incident shook the government and the opposition, and the court was turbulent, and countless Qingliu wrote to demand severe punishment of Wei Wuji, and compared him with Li Yifu back then, calling him a human cat, and since then Wei Wuji has been nicknamed a cat.

At that time, although Emperor Xiao did not issue an edict to reprimand Wei Wuji, he let him step down from the errand of the household department and transfer to the Dark Guard Mansion, until the first year of Chengping, the former Palm Seal Governor Qu Cang of the Dark Guard Mansion said goodbye to the old, the former Left Governor Tang Chunyu was imprisoned, and the former Right Governor Duanmu Ruisheng was promoted to the Palm Seal Governor, and he was able to ascend to the position of the right Governor of the Dark Guard Mansion.

Now, the sick tiger Zhang Wuji, the flying bear Yu Kuang, and the mound python Cha Qing have all become the left governors of the army, that is to say, these old friends are all under the supervision of Wei Wuji, because Cha Qing has been in office for many years, and the former military left capital governor is empty, so the new left capital governor Zhang Wuji and the new rear army left capital governor Yu Kuang have become the top priority of the supervision of the Dark Guard Mansion.

Today, a new secret report was sent on Wei Wuji's desk, except for the date, there was only one sentence, "Zhang Wuzhi held a banquet to entertain Xu Beiyou, and the two had a secret conversation for more than an hour, and the content of the discussion is unknown." ”

Wei Wuji put down the secret report, rubbed his temples, and whispered to himself, "Zhang Dingguo and Xu Beiyou." ”
