This is why Zhu Qiyu is worried about the reaction of his ministers, because the forces they represent are often greater than the imperial power.

Of course, Jin Ying also understands this truth. But it was precisely because he knew the reason that he was even more convinced that as long as the benefits were sufficient, he would not worry about not getting the support of these ministers. And among these ministers, there is another person who is very important, and that is Yang Chendong.

Even if this person can be sent back by Zhu Qiyu as a pioneer, it shows that the current level is trusted, and if he can also support the orthodoxy of Zhu Qiyu's identity as emperor, in that case, Zhu Qiyu will really not be able to turn over.

After making a plan with the emperor, Jin Ying went out of the main hall and met Han Zhi, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, who was like an ant on a hot pot.

As soon as he saw his master come out, Han Zhi fell to his knees with a thud, "The subordinates are incompetent, they didn't catch Tang Gui and them, and Cao Jixiang led a large number of Jinyi guards to copy the back road of his subordinates, and his subordinates were worried that the army would be lost, so they retreated first, but I have already sent people to the city gates, and told them that without your order, no Jinyi guards are allowed to enter the Jingshi." ”

"What the hell is going on? How many men and horses did Cao Jixiang lead? Listening to the work of this meeting, so many things have happened, and Jin Ying's face has changed again and again. originally thought that relying on the strength of the crowd, it was only a matter of time before Tang Tong was killed and Yang Chendong was captured. Yang Xima, who became a prisoner, had no chance to negotiate conditions with himself, so at that time, wouldn't he be what he said. And where did I think that things are not like that at all.

"Here's the thing..."Han Zhi wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained everything he heard and saw to Jin Ying. When he heard that ten brocade guards were killed on the spot, and no one could find out who made the shot, Jin Ying knew that it must be the role of the advanced firearms. He also understood that the report he got before that it was that Qian Seng Bao had captured Yangjiazhuang and was looking for a firearm was also false.

Even when I got the news from myself, I am afraid that Qian Seng Bao was already dead. From this point of view, Yangjiazhuang really can't be underestimated.

Originally, with advanced firearms, Yangjiazhuang was a bit impregnable, but now with the support of Cao Jixiang, I am afraid that it is about to become a trend. From this point of view, this Yang Xima is really difficult to deal with, and it will not work without a little capital.

"Okay, I got the thing. In this way, I will report this matter to the emperor immediately, and you and the brocade guards will wait for my dispatch at any time. After Jin Ying finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the main hall of the palace, and found Zhu Qiyu again.

"Aiqing, but is there anything wrong?" As soon as he saw Jin Ying appear, Zhu Qizhen felt a panic in his heart for some reason.

"Your Majesty, things are indeed a bit unexpected, Yang Chendong, who has just been awarded the title of Loyal and Courageous Uncle by Yingzong, has a very powerful firearm in his hand, which can take people's lives within a few hundred steps, just now, ten Jinyi guards died in the hands of this firearm." As soon as Jin Ying saw Zhu Qizhen, he said that the problem was very serious, otherwise he would not be taken seriously, and it would be difficult to talk about the next conditions.

"If there is such a thing, how can it be?" Zhu Qiyu started his previous panic again, he really didn't expect that he, the emperor, would be so trembling.

"It doesn't matter, it's still the same sentence. Your Majesty, as long as you give enough benefits to your loyal uncle, it must be very easy for him to recognize you as the emperor. Now it's up to us to see how much we can do. Jin Ying asked tentatively. Although he said that he is now in power, when it comes to the matter of being a knight, it is far from being a powerful eunuch that he can call the shots.

"Okay, as long as he is willing to recognize me as the emperor, what if I make him a high-ranking official. Aiqing, how do you think he will be satisfied? In order for himself to become the emperor, Zhu Qiyu's life is not threatened, and at this moment he also put on an attitude of being willing to pay a heavy price.

With Zhu Qiyu's statement, Jin Ying breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. "Your Majesty, even if Yingzong can make him an uncle, then why can't we make him a marquis? As long as we show enough attention, presumably Yang Chendong will be inexplicably grateful, at that time, it is natural to look forward to you, and then Yingzong will really have no one to rely on. ”

"Feudal marquis? Well, yes, I'll leave this matter to Aiqing. Zhu Qiyu only hesitated a little and agreed. Although it is said that Daming has a saying that he cannot be knighted for non-military merits, even if the previous imperial brother Zhu Qizhen has been named his uncle, it should not be an exaggeration to promote him.

......

On the official road five miles away from Yangjiazhuang, Cao Jixiang rushed here with his army of 3,000 people, and what he saw was a man dressed as a family member riding on a tall horse on the road, and behind him were a hundred brocade guards wearing flying fish suits.

The battle was placed in front of him, and it was completely a picture of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and there was no welcome at all, which directly caused Cao Jixiang to be dissatisfied, and his nephew Cao Qin was even more angry and shouted: "What are you going to do? Don't you know Master Cao? ”

During the Wang Zhen period, Cao Jixiang was the first eunuch of the celebrant eunuch, nominally in charge of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and the brothers below naturally recognized him.

It's just that after seeing the scene of Han Zhi's defeat, they are full of confidence in Zhong Danbo, even if the top boss appears, no one will feel afraid.

Cao Qin roared, and the answer to him was a silence, and after a while, no one spoke, Yang Si smiled and said, "What? Is this brother scaring anyone? ”

", who are you?" Cao Qin felt that he had lost face, and pulled out the embroidered spring knife he carried and pointed it at Yang Si, the threat and intimidation were very obvious.

"Huh? You guy who spews feces in your mouth, and no one cares about it? Yang Si's face also sank, and his eyes looked at Cao Jixiang, who was in the lead, meaning that your subordinates were so disrespectful, and you, the master, didn't care?

Facing Yang Si's gaze, Cao Jixiang raised his head lightly as if he hadn't seen it, looking at the sky above his head, as if he was sighing that today's weather was good.

"Ding!"

The crisp and deafening sound suddenly sounded, and the embroidered spring knife that was pulled out was hit by a shot, and fell to the ground with his hand, and Cao Qin, who was holding the knife on the side, was also stunned, and almost fell off the horse.

"Who?" The sudden change caused a group of Jinyi guards to panic, and Cao Xuan and Cao Duo, two righteous sons, blocked Cao Jixiang's body one left and one right, looking around, trying to see where the threat came from.

"Don't look at it, if you want your life, it's just a matter of raising your hand." Looking at the appearance of Cao Jixiang and the others as if they were facing a great enemy, Yang Si twitched the corners of his mouth and snorted coldly. When the voice fell, it also attracted the laughter of hundreds of brocade guards, including Tang Tong behind him.

The sound of ridicule came into Cao Qin's ears, making him red-faced, feeling that he had lost face, and in a fit of anger, he wanted to hit the horse and want to move forward, but just took a step forward, and the war horse that stepped down was suddenly startled, and then pounced on the ground, and the defenseless Cao Qin was thrown squarely, and when he fell off the horse, he rolled several times, and he was covered in dust and stood in place with a bloodless face.

"See, if you want to take your life, you are already a dead person just now. It's just that you are loyal and courageous, and you are also dedicated to the public, so you are merciful. But if there is anyone who is not convinced, and if there is anyone who wants to make a provocative move, then there will be no politeness, and if you don't believe it, you can give it a try. Pointing to Cao Qin, who got up from the ground, Yang Si was no longer merciless when he spoke.

This time, poured in no one did not believe it anymore. Although there are still some people who are unconvinced, they are suppressing their inner impulses, because they know that if they behave incorrectly, they are likely to have a corpse on the spot in the next moment.

Originally, Cao Jixiang, who was still calm and waiting for Yang Chendong to appear, was no longer as relaxed as he was just now, and when he looked at Yang Si again, he first pushed away Cao Xuan and Cao Duo, who were protecting him, and then rode on the horse and arched his hands and said: "This brother, I, Cao Jixiang, have something to see my loyal uncle, and I also trouble to tell him." ”

"Humph! Wouldn't it have been like this earlier? Okay, wait for me to report to the loyal uncle. Yang Si had long expected such a result, and he also hugged his fists, with a hint of politeness in his tone.

Turning around, Yang Si did not immediately go straight to Yangjiazhuang, but said to Tang Tong, who led the team: "Look at it, if someone doesn't listen to the advice and wants to rush up without knowing whether they are alive or dead, you just need to shout loudly, and naturally someone will take their lives." ”

After finishing speaking, Yang Si walked away, leaving Cao Jixiang and the others angry and had no place to sprinkle.

How to say that Cao Jixiang is also the eunuch of the celebrant eunuch, he is still ranked first, and he also has the identity of the Dongchang factory. Usually when I see a Shangshu lord, the other party also has to be polite, where will there be such an encounter, even if Yang Chendong has been knighted and has become a loyal uncle, but there are many people with knighthoods in the Ming Dynasty, and they are not necessarily so high, how dare they be so unkind to a Dongchang factory?

It's just that the situation is stronger than the people. Although he is superior to his status, the killing intent that came from nowhere really scared Cao Jixiang and the others. Yang Si asked them to wait obediently, and they could only continue to wait.

Yangjiazhuang. Yang Chendong was painting the girls in the study. Because there are too many women squeezed in, it feels a little crowded.

Hu Yan, Qiaoyin, Yang Duo, Xue Niangzi, and Xiang Niangzi were all in the study, waiting to line up for Yang Chendong to paint, and a strange atmosphere wandered in the study, which actually gave Yang Chendong a feeling of numbness in his scalp.
