Before going, my father-in-law cordially met with Li Chengzuo, the Marquis of Fengcheng, who lived like a year and returned to his heart like an arrow.

The whereabouts of Fengcheng Hou, Lingbi Hou, Dongning Bo, and Chengyi Bo are extremely secret, except for a few people, the outside world does not know that these four big "meat tickets" are in Shangfangmen, but they are still detained in Liyang by Wei Gonggong.

"Do you miss home?"

Father-in-law Wei's opening white is quite unlevel, just like "Are you there" and "Hello", especially can't take it.

The nobles of Fengcheng are also very hesitant to answer this question, saying that it is definitely unrealistic to say that they don't want to go home, but if they want to say that they are homesick, is this Wei Gelding willing to let him go.

As for the answer, Grandpa Wei doesn't care whether he knows it or not, whether it's true or not, this is an opening statement.

As long as he Li Guiren doesn't talk about the joy here, he doesn't think about it.

"I guess the nobles also know about it, some people think that a few people are not worth 700,000 taels of silver." Gonggong Wei looked at Li Chengzuo with a smile.

This made Li Chengzuo very embarrassed, he didn't stand there, and he didn't sit there.

"But it doesn't matter, the value of a few people will never depreciate in the eyes of our family." Gonggong Wei laughed and motioned for the nobles of Fengcheng to sit down and speak.

The person is the marquis of the Ming Dynasty, and his etiquette must be in place.

"I don't know what Gonggong Wei is looking for Ben Hou for?"

Li Chengzuo's heart was shocked, this Wei eunuch hid a knife in his smile, he didn't believe his words, he was a complete villain, if he had known that this dog eunuch was such a shameless person, he would not betray Lingbi Hou if he was killed.

Father-in-law Wei is here, there is nothing else, just to say to the nobles of Fengcheng - he is free.

"Grandpa Wei... Put... Put Ben Hou back... Get back? The nobleman of Fengcheng was a little incredulous what he heard.

Father-in-law Wei was very sure and happily replied to the other party that he could go home now.

After calming down his excitement, the nobleman of Fengcheng was faced with a choice, and after hesitating, he couldn't help but ask Eunuch Wei what he wanted him to do.

Li Houye's active inquiry was very good, which made Gonggong Wei quite satisfied, and told the other party that after he went back, in addition to collecting the 700,000 taels of ransom for himself and the Lingbi nobles, he would also mobilize all the nobles to make up a ransom of no less than 500,000 taels. And to stand up clearly against Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei.

These conditions made Hou Ye Li couldn't help but want to scold.

But he couldn't help but disobey, because Gonggong Wei told him that if he didn't do it, then the betrayal of Lingbi Hou and Dongning Bo by the Marquis of Fengcheng would be known all over the city.

Hou Ye Li's stiff face squeezed out a slight smile: "It is appropriate for each family to give more compensation to the father-in-law, and there are some things that Grandpa Xu's side has indeed done wrong, and Ben Hou should mediate in the middle." ”

The agreement was quickly reached, and the two sides shook hands amicably.

This is a new competitive system introduced by Wei Gonggong.

In the southern capital, Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, cannot have the final say, there must be different voices, and there must be people who have the courage to take responsibility.

Feng Chenghou, who can take the initiative to betray his colleagues, is obviously a very suitable candidate.

After bidding farewell to the nobles of Fengcheng, Gonggong Wei secretly met with several officials led by his godbrother Wei Guanghui.

There are four people in total, all of whom are young imperial historians of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate.

After each received three thousand taels of silver tickets and a copy of the specific details of the incident written by Gonggong Wei, the young imperial historians quietly returned to work according to the joy and excitement in their hearts.

They will become warriors who reveal the truth.

And the three thousand taels of silver were not bribes that the Wei eunuchs bought them, but simply the carriage and horse expenses and pen fees.

The father-in-law believed in Wei Guanghui, and the person he found would definitely not have a problem.

………..

The garrison yamen in the southern capital is located in the inner city of Baichuan Bridge to turn the word shop, this place is located in the Shence Gate, only a few miles away from the palace of Liudu, and less than ten miles away from the filial piety tomb.

Father-in-law Wei settled in Shangfangmen in the outer city, and there were two routes to go to the inner garrison yamen for a banquet.

One is to enter from the nearest inner city Zhengyang Gate, and then cross the entire Nanjing City to turn the word shop.

The second is to go north from Shangfang Gate without going to the inner city, from the foot of the Purple Mountain through the Taiping Gate and then to the Shence Gate to enter the inner city.

The first route is the shortest and most convenient, but it is also the most dangerous.

The second route is not dangerous, but it takes a lot of time.

Gonggong Wei chose the second route, because even if he wanted to enter the inner city through the Zhengyang Gate, he was afraid that the inner garrison hall would not let him in. After all, he didn't enter the city alone.

After ordering Cao Wenyao to be in charge of Shangfangmen, his father-in-law immediately ordered Lu Bo to set off.

Along the way, more than 1,000 imperial officers and soldiers guarded it, which attracted the people of the outer city to come and watch.

In order to allow the people of Nandu to truly feel the spiritual outlook of the Jiangnan town guard and the officers and soldiers of his subordinates, the speed of the Wei Gonggong ordered the team to slow down.

In this way, it was not until late in the evening that the procession reached the gate of Shence.

There were already people waiting in the inner garrison hall, and when they saw Gonggong Wei coming over, someone came to greet them immediately.

Before entering the city, the father-in-law ordered the officers and soldiers to form a formation, and a thousand well-trained soldiers drilled in front of the inner garrison hall and the defenders of the Shence Gate, so as to show the majesty and invincible strength of the Son of Heaven's army!

Subsequently, Gonggong Wei entered the city and went to the inner garrison hall for a banquet.

He was only allowed to lead two hundred guards inside, which made his father-in-law hesitate for a moment, but he quickly dispelled his hesitation.

There are two hundred pig warriors to guard, and there are really five hundred sword and axe men buried in the garrison hall, and they are not cowardly.

Besides, did he, Liu Chao, really dare to ambush the Jiangnan guards who were ordered by the emperor!

After entering the inner garrison hall, a eunuch came to invite his father-in-law to enter, and the guards of the department were placed separately. The father-in-law frowned slightly, but he saw Chen Fu and Chen's father-in-law nodding at him not far away, and his heart suddenly settled, and he smiled and asked the guards to obey the arrangement of the people in the inner garrison hall, and only Xiao Tian and a few others followed him in.

After entering the meeting hall of the Inner Guard Hall, the father-in-law found that Liu Chaoyong had invited a lot of guests.

Among them, there are Zhang Guoyan, Marquis of Longping, Zhao Shixin, Xincheng Bo, who had negotiated with Shangfangmen, as well as seven or eight lords such as Sun Tingxun, Ying Chengbo, Guo Zuoyong, etc.

In addition, there are some officials from the Sixth Department of Nanjing, and there are really a lot of birds and beasts, but except for Pan Binlong, the prefect of Yingtian, the rest of the father-in-law does not know any of them.

"Xiao Wei is here, but we have to wait."

Liu Chao, who was dressed in a big red robe, squinted his eyes and looked at Wei Liangchen, who stepped in with his head held high, and couldn't help but sigh with some emotion: The future is terrifying.

Zhang Guoyan, Marquis of Longping, snorted slightly and sat upright in his chair.

The rest of the crowd looked curiously at the young eunuch who walked in.

"Our family invited you to a banquet, but you brought so many soldiers, why, could it be that your Xiao Wei thinks that our family will give you a Hongmen banquet?" Liu Chaoyong quipped.

Gonggong Wei slandered in his heart: You are a bad old man, and you will drop the chain at a critical time, otherwise our family will be so troublesome.

With a smile on his face, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Liu Chaoyong three times without saying a word, and said: "The good minister kowtowed to the old lady!" ”

This knock startled Liu Chaoyong, and then laughed, and personally stepped forward to help Wei Liangchen up: "What kind of kowtow to our old man, when the old man returns to the west one day, you won't be too late to kowtow." ”
