Liu Wenbing's carriage gradually disappeared at the mouth of the alley, Chang Yu stood in front of the yamen, looked up at the night sky, the stars were dotted, a wild cat on the roof in the distance had green light in its eyes, and the imperial city in the west was towering like a giant beast in the night.

"After the humble injury is recovered, follow Lord Hu, and it will be difficult for the thief to approach ten steps!" Wu Zhong didn't know when he came behind Chang Yu: "Today, Luo Yu is derelict in her duties, and she is invited to Haihan, and she is scolded lightly for her meritorious service in the army."

Chang Yu turned his head and glanced at him, pouting: "I haven't passed the door yet, just protect it like this, hey, I said are you too self-righteous, when will our family punish Luo Yu, if she didn't have the merit of protecting her, if she didn't fight to save Ben Du's life, she wouldn't have time to punish Ben Du for rewarding, and I want you to be a good person here."

Forehead...... Wu Zhong blushed: "Her poor guard injured the factory father, is it ......?"

"The Governor's injury is really a thief's calculation, and the Governor is careless, how can Lai Luoyu be derelict in his duties, and the Governor will not wear this hat."

Wu Zhong exhaled: "I understand the lowly duty, this is a thief who is too treacherous, but if the lowly duty is followed today, the factory will be injured, and this dereliction of duty hat and lowly duty will not be worn."

"That's right, that's how Ben likes you!" Chang Yu laughed, turned around and walked into the yamen: "Don't play so many tricks day by day, heal your injuries as soon as possible and go out with this governor."

"At most, half a month of humble duty can be restored, and the adults will go to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, and the humble position will also swear to the death," Wu Zhong hurriedly said.

Chang Yu turned his head to look at Wu Zhong and said, "You have changed."

"Mu You, where have I changed" Wu Zhong touched his face and touched his stomach: "It seems to have become fatter or more powerful."

Chang Yu sighed, it didn't seem to have changed, he was still so stubborn.

The candle flame flickered, Chang Yu squinted at the teacup in his hand, and then looked at Jiang Quan next to him: "How are you going to check?" ”

"Since the dead will be raised by the wealthy, although there are many nobles in the capital, there are only a few families who have the strength to support the dead and have an undying enmity with the factory public, but we have placed eyeliner in these people's homes, so I don't believe that we can't see a clue." Jiang Quan wanted to come and said.

"Such a major event as the assassination of the Admiral of Dongchang by raising a dead soldier must be a secret, if you just can't keep an eye on the slightest clue," Chang Yu asked again.

"Then hit the grass and scare the snake, knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, and let them have civil strife first, and they will be exposed in panic" Jiang Quan's eyes flashed with ruthlessness.

Chang Yu's eyes narrowed again, he got up and paced with the teacup, Jiang Quan bowed his head and didn't dare to make a sound, for a long time, Chang Yu exhaled: "Don't come nonsense."

"What do you mean by ......," Jiang Quan asked cautiously.

"Xun Gui is the cornerstone of the country, the important weapon of the country, even the emperor does not dare to move lightly, if you don't know the severity of your attack without evidence, the emperor is angry under the anger of the masses, don't talk about you, even the governor can't bear it!"

Jiang Quan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "I know about my humble position."

"Be patient when catching big fish, send people to keep an eye on them, if they don't move, there will be traces to follow, as long as you get human and physical evidence, you will copy his family and destroy his clan, and no one will have anything to say." Chang Yu whispered, and Jiang Quan responded again and again.

"Master Changgong, Wu Sangui asks to see you!" At this time, a fan came to report from outside the door.

Chang Yu raised his eyebrows, so fast. It seems that this emperor's grace is not good!

The gates of the city were closed after dark, and the imperial city was locked.

Theoretically, once the imperial city was closed, no one but the emperor could enter or leave again.

Of course, both the wild history and the official history have also broken this rule in an emergency, such as the current Ming Dynasty, the power supervisor Chang Yu can enter and leave the Sijiu City and the palace anytime and anywhere.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is the grace of the most favored heaven. In fact, this is only a part, just an extraordinary move that Emperor Chongzhen had to do at an extraordinary time, after all, anything critical can happen in this year, he just hopes that there is a trusted person who can contribute to him anytime and anywhere in a critical moment.

When Wu Sangui entered the city, it was already dark, and the imperial city had been locked, but after getting the news that he had returned to Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen actually allowed him to enter the palace for the first time.

The gate of the imperial city was opened for its new reopening, and it was naturally envied by others when it was passed out, and it was the emperor's grace.

Even Chang Yu expressed surprise when he heard this, what reason did Emperor Chongzhen have to be in such a hurry to see Wu Sangui, he couldn't even wait for a night.

Wu Sangui, the most powerful warlord in the Ming Dynasty at the moment, has the strength of Ningyuan, a lonely city outside the Guan, and holds 30,000 of the most elite Guanning iron cavalry in the Ming Dynasty.

It is no wonder that Emperor Chongzhen, the emperor's grace reopened the palace door and allowed him to face the saint overnight.

It's no wonder that even the little eunuch had to go to the gate of the yamen to greet him personally: "I haven't seen you for a few months, is the general okay!" ”

"Thanks to the blessing of Chang Gonggong, he can still fight ten catties of wine and meat with a meal, but he has not seen the factory for more than a month, but he has become more and more vigorous, which can be described as heroic." Wu Sangui's expression was slightly tired, and he smiled and arched his hand.

Chang Yu laughed: "Wu Zongbing came up and praised it like this, our family heard it, this is coming to the yamen to eat" Saying that, he invited Wu Sangui into the yamen, and went to the backyard lobby to make tea and go to prepare wine and food.

The tea in the hall was curling, and Wu Sangui got up and gave his hand: "Chang Gonggong's favor will be repaid in the future."

Chang Yu frowned: "Mr. Wu is here to make such a play, which can make our family inexplicable."

"The Tartars raided into the customs, and there was a responsibility for negligence under the order, if the extraordinary father-in-law led the troops to defeat it, the consequences would be unbearable, and the court would inevitably impose heavy penalties.

Chang Yu sighed and laughed: "Mr. Wu laughed, the responsibility of this negligence is not enough to mention Ning Yuan's merits, how can the imperial court have a reason to punish him, at most he will only babble a few words."

Wu Sangui shook his head with a wry smile: "If it was in previous years, maybe it was just a few words of verbal punishment, but tonight is different from the past, with Chang Gonggong, not to mention the verbal punishment, it is possible to take me Wu Sangui to prison."

Chang Yu chuckled: "I can't commit the blame for negligence, I can't commit it, having said that," I actually knew what Wu Sangui meant.

If in the past, the imperial court was deficient in kidneys, the court would not say anything about the blame for this negligence, and even dare not say a word, and would have to appease Wu Sangui: It's okay, it's okay, the Tartars will enter the customs when they enter the customs, and they will leave after shopping, don't blame yourself and don't put pressure on yourself.

Just like in history, Liu Zeqing resisted the decree and did not enter King Jingqin, Emperor Chongzhen did not dare to reprimand, and had to send people to Jinan to send silver to appease him, coax him, and didn't even dare to shake his face.

The main reason why this grievance is so low is that it is weak and incompetent, has no confidence, and has no strength.

But now it's different, Emperor Chongzhen has a big trump card in his hand, not to mention being good at planning and fighting, there are several big warlords under the trump card who follow him in a group, whoever is not convinced will be beaten, even the most powerful Wu Sangui will be beaten.

This is confidence and strength.

This is also why Emperor Chongzhen issued an order to summon Wu Sangui into Beijing, he did not dare to slack off, and came non-stop.

"Whether you can commit it or not, this father-in-law Chang should know best" Wu Sangui smiled, Chang Yu raised his eyebrows: "General Wu Bing, you have all been saints, is it necessary to explore our family's mouth."

Hey, as soon as Wu Sangui heard this, he slapped his thigh: "It's just that the face of the sacred heart is even more bottomless, isn't this just an ordinary father-in-law, you show the way."

Chang Yu was confused when he said this, and Wu Sangui didn't hide it, so he said that he had passed through the face and talked with Emperor Chongzhen in the palace for nearly half an hour, but he had nothing else to say except to ask Ning Yuan in detail about the war, and he didn't praise Wu Sangui Ning Yuan's merits, nor did he mention the responsibility for negligence.

"That's all?" Even Chang Yu was surprised.

"That's all, so the psychology is now seven up and eight down, Chang Gonggong, you and I have fought side by side in Ning Yuan, and I won't let you see the outside, so you can give it to you through the tone."

Chang Yu smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, when your face is not breathing, how can our family know, maybe the emperor wants to surprise you, and he is rewarding meritorious deeds during the military parade."

General Wu Sangui will be suspicious: "In the past few months, Chang Gonggong has supervised the army, and the military exploits of all the generals of all departments have been reported by you, and the court will reward the merits, and Chang Gonggong will not know the slightest rumor."

"Wu Zongbing, our family is an internal official, internal officials are not allowed to interfere in politics, and the emperor and the cabinet make decisions on the merits of the court. Chang Yu seemed to be smiling.

Wu Sangui sighed: "It turns out that Chang Gonggong is so abrupt." Chang Yu raised his eyebrows: "What do you say about General Wu Bing, how can you and I come to see each other and say it."

"If it is said that there is something in this court, how can there be anyone who does not know about it, and who knows more than what Chang Gong knows, but he doesn't want to say it." Wu Sangui looked very depressed.

At this time, the official sent the wine and food, Chang Yu smiled slightly, and helped Wu Sangui pour wine: "Okay, if you don't say something, it really seems that you are estranged from Lord Wu, our family heard the news, some people are in the Pillar Kingdom, and some people want to be knighted......"

Knighted! Wu Sangui was shocked!

The imperial court is really willing to pay for it! It's so tempting to be knighted! Wu Sangui's hand shook a little.

"Father-in-law Chang, do you know who is knighted?"

Chang Yu smiled but said nothing.

Wu Sangui gritted his teeth: "I don't ask about the future when I enter Beijing this time, I only ask about the blessings and misfortunes, and I hope that Chang Gonggong will give you advice" He got up and gave up his hand.

Chang Yu smiled, looked at the wine glass on the table, Wu Sangui understood, raised his glass, Chang Yu still poured wine for him, and Wu Sangui drank it again.

Three glasses in a row.

Chang Yu said softly this time: "The general is worry-free."

For Wu Sangui, the big warlord who holds the authority of the army, the imperial court has its own considerations, even if he has the confidence and strength now, he does not dare to move him easily, because his strength is too strong, and his position outside the gate is unique, he can be reprimanded, and even beat him, but he can't be forced too much.

Of course, Wu Sangui will not rebel easily, dozens of his family are in the capital, in fact, filial piety, if Li Zicheng hadn't killed his whole family in history, he might not have made up his mind to surrender.

To put it simply, the power of the imperial court and Wu Sangui is equal, and they will not turn their faces immediately, but can only slowly figure it out and slowly differentiate.

"Xie Chang's father-in-law pointed out" Wu Sangui bowed his hand and thanked him, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and he raised his glass to Chang Yu: "Do it first in the next one for respect."

Chang Yu replaced wine with tea: "Mr. Wu's mind is gone, and now it's also our family's mind."

Chang Yu's concern is what is happening to the Qing army that has retreated and fled outside the pass.
