Chapter 431: The Chaotic Situation on
readx;? The night is very deep, surrounded by vermilion walls, yellow tiles, the wind can only blow high overhead, like flour-like raindrops are still fluttering, falling, dyeing the flowers and trees of the entire palace city green, in a small courtyard in the depths of the forbidden palace, the old eunuch Lu sat on a creaking rocking chair, slowly shaking his body, slowly peeling the peanuts in his hands, several eunuch leaders in red robes stood respectfully in front of him, whispering something. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The rain was fine and dense, but none of the people in this group noticed that their clothes were all soaked, and they all discussed in the open air in a low voice.
Slowly shattered the shell of the peanut, took out the red-clothed kernel inside, and then gently rubbed off the thin layer of skin with his fingers, and then threw the peanut into his mouth, chewed and crushed it, the old eunuch Lu was very intoxicated, squinted his eyes, carefully tasted the mellow fragrance of the peanut kernel, and said slowly: "What a fragrant peanut, what a nasty little rabbit, alas, my child is only a few months old?
Very carefully, he slapped the little bit of crushing on his hand and slapped it clean, and the old eunuch Lu sneered: "Little Lizi is so sorry for my father-in-law, I felt so sorry for you back then, you really have a bit of father-in-law's demeanor, hehe, how long has Dongchang been established just now? The foundation has not yet been solid, so I dare to calculate behind my back, father-in-law, I am here, I want to take over the Tenglong secret spy, this is His Highness's idea, right?
A eunuch leader laughed sinisterly, and said flatteringly: "Father-in-law, that little cub doesn't do things authentically, and wants to fight for power with Lord Lu, can't you just let him go, it's better to do this way, let's just start as soon as possible, and give him directly to 、、、、, he made a gesture of chopping with a knife, and said softly: "Cut off the roots, as long as he doesn't let His Highness know about this matter, even if it is over, the undercurrent in the city is surging, and we secretly kill a few people, and it won't attract the attention of others."
Slowly picked up a cup of tea, the tea in the teacup dissipated in an instant, and the wisp of light smoke was sucked into his mouth and melted back into a turquoise tea, this hand is unpredictable, obviously the old eunuch Lu's pre-cultivation is already very considerable, after all, Lu Feng gave him so many elixirs, not to take them, swallowed the tea very gently, the old eunuch Lu threw the clean tea back to the small square table beside him, and stood up slowly.
The rain is falling heavily, father-in-law, I went back to the house to avoid the rain, alas, the years are not forgiving, a little wet, why are the bones in my body sore?
A fine light flashed in his eyes, and the old eunuch Lu showed a very terrible smile, and slowly walked into his room, the heads of the eunuchs looked at each other, with a hideous smile on their faces, and after kneeling down and kowtowing in the muddy water, he respectfully retreated, and the eunuch who had just exited the gate of the small courtyard was already reprimanded in a low voice: "Go to Tenglong, secret spy, brocade guard, guard, tiger, leopard, wolf, eagle, four battalions on standby."
Since ancient times, there have never been such arrogant eunuchs in the palace, they rose straight up, exerted their high and high skills, stepped on the eaves and capped the roof, and ran away quickly, with that murderous order, all the forces controlled by the old eunuch Lu were running rapidly, just like a cobra in the dark, ready to strike a fatal blow at any time.
On the main hall of the palace, Yuan Shengxiong stood there with a high spirit, and shouted loudly to Zhu Xi, who was sitting on it: "Your Highness, there are too many things in Yingtian City that are people and not people, and there are actually people who dare to attack Jinyiwei on the street, this is a crime of rebellion, if it is not thoroughly investigated, won't it let those villains succeed? The minister has already found out that those people use the hard crossbow from the armory of the Ministry of War, and the officers of the Ministry of War are behind the command of this attack, so the minister thinks that all the officials of the Ministry of War should be put in prison for Jinyiwei.
Coughing, Ouyang Supreme added: "Ahem, Your Highness Lord Yuan's prescription is a little too serious, but the strong crossbow did come out of the armory of the Ministry of War, this matter must be investigated in detail, to say that all the officials of the Ministry of War have been put in prison, this is too inflammatory, but I have to ask the adults of the Ministry of War to cooperate with the investigation."
Zhu Xi looked at Yuan Sheng with a smile on his face, and was happy in his heart: "Okay, Lu Qing's family left, and I thought that I was missing an arm, but I didn't expect that this Yuan Qianhu could do it, aren't those people in the military department all supporting the second brother? Hehe, it's not bad to take advantage of the reason to change all the people in the military department, but he looked at the arrogance and domineering, and didn't look at all the ministers in the entire hall in his eyes.
Yuan Sheng frowned and thought: "But it's too arrogant, how to say that if it is the director of state affairs, he will make a lot of nonsense on the main hall, and even how to deal with the officials in the back department, it can be seen that he is a barbarian who does not know how to be an official at all."
didn't look at the high-ranking Zhu Xi, Yuan Sheng pushed Ouyang Supreme away with one hand, stood extremely arrogantly in front of the group of military officials, and said very magnifiedly: "You are the ones who colluded with the traitors to provide them with weapons and let them attack the Jinyi Guard, you are the traitors of the 19th Dynasty, you should be copied and destroyed by the Nine Clans, Hmph, leave your daughters and granddaughters to be sold to the Sect Division to be a bitch, it's not bad, my lord, I must be the first to appreciate the light."
The roar of unbridled anger made the entire hall tremble, and several generals of the military department stood up extremely angrily and looked at Yuan Sheng menacingly: "You small thousand households actually dare to be so presumptuous in front of us and other military department officials, but you can rebel against you? Even if those strong crossbows used by the soldiers are from the armory of the military department, what does it have to do with us? Aren't the people and horses guarding the armory of your five cities governor's mansion?"
Zhu Xi frowned, glanced at Xiao Li Zi beside him, Xiao Li Zi also frowned deeply, and took a step forward to speak, but Yuan Sheng was a guy who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so that the entire hall almost jumped a foot on the spot, and Gao Yuan Sheng howled loudly: "Tsk." Yes, yes, yes, you guys, do you have a point? Hmm? It is true that the guards of the treasury are the city defense army, but Ben Qianhu has already consulted the ordnance file book, and the ordnance is consistent with the registered figures, only a month ago, someone took away 500 crossbows from the treasury with the resistance of the military department.
The faces of several generals of the military department changed, and they looked at the secretary of the military department, the squire of the military department and a few other civil officials, the face of the military department Shangshu was wonderful, blue for a while, purple for a while, like a pumpkin that had become a fine, the color on his face really couldn't tell what it looked like, Yuan Sheng saw such an image, copied his home, and copied his family, along with their correspondence and case files, and he copied them.
Yuan Shengde is dancing with teeth and claws, jumping around in the main hall, the civil and military officials of the full dynasty, together with the left and right are all imperial history, there is no one who dares to speak, the members of the military department are ghosts, but what about the other ministers? A small part of them are made of monks and Taoyan, who have joined his heart, and the Buddha Sect naturally will not speak, part of them are grasped by the brocade clothes, and they are pinched by the handle, and they naturally dare not speak, and some of them are gloating, and the ministers of the military department are unlucky, and they are naturally unwilling to speak.
For a while, I could hear Yuan Sheng's shouting there, but which of the golden gourd warriors in the main hall dared to move? Wasn't it Zhu Xidi's order, who dared to tie up the dignified Ming Dynasty's second Lu Ming official's military department and all the officials of the military department in the main hall?
The corners of Zhu Xi's mouth hooked a smile, and he said softly: "The case of the Yuanqing family is handed over to you, you must find out who let the military hard crossbow fall into the hands of the bandits, alas, the emperor's expedition to Yuanmeng took too long, Lord Lu went to the West to share the worries of the imperial court, Xu Qingzhou, Lu An, Lin Shi, and the Qing family led Jinyi Wei to the south to handle the case, so that the entire Yingtian City's supervision force was weak for a while, and the people's hearts were loosened.
Just like playing monkeys, jumping up and down, Yuan Sheng suddenly quieted down, with a face as gentle as jade, with a clear divine light, his face was unfathomable and warm, as if from an uncivilized barbarian suddenly became a Buddha who attained the Tao, His Royal Highness's ministers are willing to share worries for His Royal Highness, Jinyi Guard, monitor the world, and control the hearts of the people in the world is the duty of the ministers, although Lord Lu, they have all gone out to do business, but the ministers are still in the capital, and the ministers can share the worries for His Royal Highness. 、
Zhu Xi laughed: "Glancing at the adults of the military department, and then at the solemn Yuan Shengchang, he said with a smile: "Okay, this is very good, how many Jinyi guards are there in Yingtian City?" He glanced at Xiao Li Zi, he didn't ask the two senior generals present at the Jinyi Guard, but asked Xiao Li Zi, the meaning of his words was very unfathomable.
Xiao Li Zi bowed respectfully and whispered: "His Royal Highness Qi Qi summoned Yingtian City, there are less than 1,000 official brocade guards in the Heavenly City, and although there are many people who are temporarily recruited, they are embarrassed and reused, and the ministers think that such a force is indeed unable to bear the serious injuries of Gong Weijing to supervise the world, and please ask Your Highness to learn clearly."
Yuan Sheng took a step forward with a smile on his face and bowed down and said: "Your Highness's strength in summoning the Jinyi Guard is too weak, Lord Lu went to the West and took away three or five thousand good hands, Xu Qing and other four adults went down to the south to track down the former dynasty, and traced the whereabouts of that person, but also took away thousands of good hands, although the Jinyi Guard summoned and a large number of secret agents stayed in the capital, but it was not tamed to intimidate the world."
Zhu Xi laughed and nodded, and said: "This matter is known to be Gu Zhi, Director Li drafted the holy decree to promote the Yuan Thousand Households as a wave envoy, together with Ouyang Qing's family to govern the capital, Jinyi Wei should be manpowered, didn't it just say that Jinyiwei is not manpowered, so I will draw good hands from the Praetorian Guards and Forbidden Army to supplement it, and it is barely enough to add two thousand, after all, Lu Qing's family still has a large number of good hands around them, if they are summoned, let Jinyi Wei expand too much, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain when your emperor returns to Beijing."
After a pause, he suddenly whispered: "As for the places that Jinyi Wei can't reach, the people of Dongchang will work together to handle it."
Boom, boom, as if a thunderbolt was made on a sunny day, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, together with the Yuan Sheng, opened their mouths wide like a toad that was startled, and they couldn't say the proverb, this is good, it doesn't matter if Jinyiwei expands again, but Zhu Xi's gentle words made Dongchang turn out of the air, and justifiably became half of the capital's intelligence system, and the hundred officials of the square wailed: "Jinyiwei's tight spell has not been unraveled, but he came out again, and I heard that Dongchang is near Beiping City, which really makes everyone dare not speak, but how can it be called?"
Yuan Sheng smiled and saw that Zhu Xi fell down respectfully, the poisonous fire in his heart was churning, he was so angry in his heart that he was almost about to split a palm thunder and kill Zhu Xi alive on the spot, it was really a good son of the Zhu family, there was no simple Ben Sheng, it took a lot of effort to make it easy for his subordinates to have more people, and he could have a legitimate excuse to deal with these square ministers, but he made a wedding dress for you, the little eunuch surnamed Li, you wait, you don't have the little head below, be careful that the big head above you are.
Lying on the bed in the depths of the forbidden palace and squinting, the old eunuch Lu was listening to the report of a celebrant eunuch: "Father-in-law, His Royal Highness and Father-in-law Li, the two of them really put on a good show, and they didn't know what was going on, but they took away half of the power, especially the Jinyi Weidi, that Yuan Qianhu, was really inexplicable, and he was so presumptuous in the main hall, but it was used by His Royal Highness, so that the newly established supervision agency and Jinyiwei of Dongchang were on an equal footing, which is simply unreasonable."
The eunuch was very angry, but the old eunuch Lu was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "Well, this matter, that Yuan Qianhu of Jinyiwei is obviously my little cub's henchman, so he acted arrogantly, not to mention that he did not intentionally cooperate with His Highness's actions, as for His Highness, this time His Highness let Dongchang share a piece of Jinyiwei's pie." It is also a matter of course, the old eunuch Lu laughed darkly: "Xiao Lizi has been with His Highness for so many years, and it is time for him to take the throne, and His Highness can rest assured that there is only one capable person under him?"
The eunuch suddenly came to his senses, nodded at the old eunuch Lu with a look of admiration, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, you are really wise, how can the little ones not analyze this matter, but you broke the sky at a glance, it really makes the small people admire it so much, eh, but the father-in-law played music and slaughtered the Dongchang to grab power from Lord Lu, so do you want to do it?"
The old eunuch Lu squinted his eyes and glanced at him, and said leisurely: "Father-in-law, what did I tell you to do? No, there are many things, father-in-law, I don't know Xiao Lizi, well, he is still young, I think how long did my father-in-law and I get to where we are today? He actually wants to take the place of my father-in-law and me now, this little lesson? What do you say? Leaving aside the relationship with himself, the old eunuch Lu suddenly sneered, and his long nails lightly scratched his eyebrows, and he said coldly:" If you can kill it, you can kill it, if you can't kill it, you can blame the people of the Second and Third Highnesses, and if someone wants to muddy the water, my father-in-law, I will add a fire to them.
Looking up at the mosquito net above, the old eunuch Lu sighed leisurely: "Your Majesty's body is still fine, in fact, there shouldn't be so much trouble, these highnesses are really too anxious, so what about my father-in-law, I also have to do more things for my child, and I can't let people bully him? I really don't know if the little rabbit cub is my father-in-law? Which one of you and the other people in charge of affairs are not all my child's nominal disciples? Hmph, what are you putting in front of my father-in-law?
The cold sweat on the head of the eunuch of the priest flowed down like this, and the old eunuch Lu looked funny and scolded with a smile: "The little rabbit cub who didn't come out is scared?" You are my child's apprentice, naturally the good grandson of my father-in-law, I feel sorry for you, it's too late, how can I deal with you, hum, the recent things, you look at it, pay attention to the brothers over there, and join forces with the brothers over there, you are not afraid of losses, and he paused, and he said: "Ming'er will tell His Highness that my father-in-law, I am seriously ill, so I will not go to the imperial study to serve."
The eunuch knelt down and kowtowed, and secretly looked at the old eunuch Lu, and when he saw that he had closed his eyes, he still asked a little hesitantly, "Father-in-law, do you say, then, Father-in-law, should we get rid of him?
