Chapter Ninety-Three: The Comer Is Not Good
Tasting the fragrant tea, Ou Lingtian asked, "I don't know why Lord Lan is here today?"
Lan Jingqing put down the teacup, looked at Ou Lingtian's question and said: "I like Du Mu's Bo Qinhuai very much: the smoke cage is cold and the water and the moon is long, and the night is close to the restaurant; What do you see?"
Ou Lingtian suddenly became nervous: "What does Lord Lan mean by this?"
Lan Jingqing said: "I don't spare the circle anymore, get straight to the point, your wife's name is Jiang Xueliu, right? Xueliu dances, the phoenix is ashamed and the dragon is shocked, it's her, right? Mrs. killed the chief official of Ouchi and fled, and was taken away by you for more than ten years, and now the matter has been committed, and someone has made a secret to the court, saying that the Ou family has hidden the Qin prisoners of the imperial court, and I am also on official business, so I will pay a visit." ”
Ou Lingtian's face changed and said, "This is a door-to-door visit, how many soldiers and horses have the adults brought?"
Lan Jingqing said with a smile: "Ou Lingtian is a martial arts hero, the reputation of 'Tai Chi Whirlwind Sword' is not blown, as long as you raise your arms, how many martial arts masters will appear in "Plum Blossom Villa", how many soldiers can I bring?"
Ou Lingtian was stunned for a moment, looked at him and asked in disbelief, "What does Lord Lan mean, please say it directly." ”
Lan Jingqing leaned his head over and whispered: "Mr. Ou, you don't know about the affairs of the imperial court, the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, and besides, more than ten years have passed, and the bones of that eunuch have turned to ashes." It's not that the dead eunuch is the uncle of the current head of Ouchi Wang Yu, who would care about that matter, if it weren't for the current saint favoring him, the arrest warrant wouldn't be issued to me, the Wanhu Mansion. ”
Ou Lingtian sneered and said, "I have long heard that Lord Lan is an iron-faced and selfless Qing official, and this is not like what you said. ”
Lan Jingqing smiled slightly and replied: "Then it depends on what it is, is it worth so much fanfare for a dead eunuch." ”
Ou Lingtian said: "What does Lord Lan want to take from me, please tell me directly, is it silver, or is it a woman, or something else?"
Lan Jingqing shook his head and said, "Since you think I'm a clean official, what do you want money for? As long as Mr. Ou can do the court a favor, that matter will be written off, what do you think?"
Ou Lingtian asked vigilantly: "Helping the imperial court, I'm just an ordinary commoner, I'm afraid I can't climb the big tree of the imperial court, have you found the wrong person?"
Lan Jingqing said: "Shen Yunhe is your best friend, known as Shen Yidao in the rivers and lakes, and killing him with a knife is his greatest ability." ”
Ou Lingtian asked in surprise, "Yunhe, it's my good friend, is something wrong with him?"
"Not yet, but someone is high in the court, he has a relationship with the exiled Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen, and you also know what kind of attitude the saint has towards Emperor Jianwen's dead party today, and he would rather kill him by mistake than let it go. ”
Ou Lingtian fell silent.
On July 5 of the first year of Jianwen, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, rebelled in Beiping, and in the name of "Qing Jun's side", he captured Zhang and Xie Gui who were stationed in Beiping, captured Jiumen, swore to raise troops, and began a three-year "Battle of Jingyan". In June of the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di waved his army into Nanjing, and Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen set a fire in his palace and closed the palace. But all kinds of signs show that Zhu Yunwen did not die, it was his queen who died, wearing her husband's dragon robe in the luxurious palace and throwing herself into the fire, the queen's fate is the same as Zhu Yunwen's fate, but one died in the fire, the other traveled around for decades, and finally died of poverty.
Emperor Jianwen was forced to death by his uncle Zhu Di, in the words of the Confucian student Fang Xiaoru, Zhu Di was a usurper of power and rebellion, and the crime should be punished by the nine clans, Fang Xiaoru must have no brain when he said this, Zhu Di's nine clans, Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen is also included, not to mention that this struggle is only a dispute between uncles and nephews within the Zhu family, the weak Zhu Di used his wisdom to defeat Zhu Yunwen, the Jianwen Emperor who was called "the benevolence of women" by Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, Zhu Yunwen replaced himself with a queen, shaved his hair and became a monk, and his legal name was Yingwen.
So, a hunt for Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen began, under the order of apparent calm, searchers, fugitives, and hiders were intertwined, like densely embroidered needles and threads, and blood began to flow from the first massacre of Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen's former ministers, and blood flowed like a river. The deaths of Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, Tie Xuan, Chen Di and other so-called loyal ministers of Emperor Jianwen left their strong and unyielding reputation for future generations. But Zhu Yunwen was not captured, and Ming Chengzu Zhu Di was restless.
Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwei saved in Zhu Di's imagination, Zhu Di must catch him, only by catching this exiled emperor and getting rid of him, Zhu Di will not be a usurper and rebel, and his throne can be stable and unshakable.
The operation to arrest Zhu Yunwen was carried out all over the country, and the Jinyi guards were very happy, they liked to kill, they liked to see the frightened expressions of people at the moment when their heads were cut off, for the bloodthirsty, the blood of their opponents became their best spiritual food, and they would not pay attention to how many grievances were in it.
