It didn't take long for the front foot to go, and the palace housekeeper led the two to meet, but it was the fan of Dongchang, who came from the capital, and Chang Yu was not surprised that they could find the Dewang Mansion, and established a complete set of intelligence lines before leaving Beijing.

"Gonggong Chun has been out of Beijing, and the affairs of the yamen have Hu Gonggong temporarily" Gonggong Hu is Hu Ling, the prison tyrant that Chang Yu just crossed over, and now he has become Chang Yu's confidant and right-hand man.

"But maybe the emperor was worried about the lack of strength of Father-in-law Hu, and sent Father-in-law Bingbi to Dongchang to assist," Chang Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"Gao Shiming?"

Fanzi nodded: "It's Gao Gonggong."

This Gao Shiming is definitely a power prisoner, and Chang Yu has heard of him for a long time.

As we all know, there are 24 yamen in the inner palace of the Ming Dynasty, and each yamen has a palm print eunuch, among which the master of ceremonies leads the yamen, and its palm print eunuch is the head of the harem, and there are several eunuchs under the pen, and the chief penci is in charge of the Dongchang, the edict prison and other special service torture agencies, and each Bingbi is in charge of each prison and each department.

The celebrant is in charge of the emperor's document seal, palace etiquette and other business, the head of the twelve eunuchs, becoming the largest institution of the inner court, although its palm seal eunuch is only quite a foreign dynasty three grades, but sometimes the power can be comparable to the cabinet of the first assistant, there is "the power over the Yuanfu", "the prime minister" said. The eunuch is like a secondary assistant.

And this Gao Shiming was originally a palm print eunuch, and he was deeply trusted by Emperor Chongzhen, and even his name was given by him, but Gao Shiming was particularly low-key, and later under the influence of Chang Yu, Wang Chengen, who was originally Bingbi, became more favored by the emperor and palmed it in one fell swoop, while Gao Shiming was demoted to Bingbi.

Gao Shiming had a complaint about Chang Yubo, but it was not because of the demotion, but because he was not used to some of his actions, especially for the actions of the nobles, he once said: "The inner court is so ignorant and messing around, and the Ming Dynasty is unlucky."

But because he is low-key on weekdays, there is no major conflict with Chang Yu and Dongchang, and Chang Yu is too busy, and he has no time to pay attention to him, and there is no need to find fault with him because of a few words, there are still few people who scold him in the Manchu Dynasty, and he doesn't care at all, not to mention that although this Gao Shiming is not very good at dealing with him, Emperor Chongzhen is extremely loyal, and after Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in history, he burned himself and died as emperor.

It's just that as soon as he and Chunxiang left Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen placed this veteran in Dongchang, what did he want?

"The emperor's heart is unpredictable," Li Muxian muttered in a low voice beside him.

Chang Yu chuckled and looked at the two fans: "Hu Ling has shallow qualifications and is not outstanding, and it is a good thing to have a stable veteran like Gao Gonggong in charge."

Fanzi nodded again and again, and said: "Factory father, we also inquired about one thing, Gao Gonggong and Guozhang have a very good personal relationship."

Chang Yu's eyes flickered: "No matter how good the personal relationship is, it can't move the governor, but it's just ...... Will the prince go south with our people? ”。

"Yes" Fanzi hurriedly said: "Seven people, their identities are secret, and the prince and his entourage have arrived in Baoding at this time."

"That's good! No matter how much they calculate, it will be a bamboo basket for nothing," Chang Yu snorted and asked about the epidemic situation in Beijing.

At this time, it was the scorching heat, the epidemic was becoming more and more serious, the capital was already white everywhere, people were panicked, Emperor Chongzhen listened to Chang Yu's opinion, came to save himself, in addition to strictly grasping the health accident, and expelled all refugees from the city outside the city, and set up a quarantine area in the western suburbs of Beijing, where the dead were found to be infected, a case of isolation was found, and the rations were supplied by the imperial court.

Quarantine may be the most effective, helpless and costly way to deal with the epidemic in this era, and this method is not very pioneered in the world, and it has always been a long time ago, such as dealing with leprosy, directly throwing people into the inaccessible mountains for isolation.

After the two left, Chang Yu stood on the corridor and pondered for a long time.

Li Muxian leaned over and asked in a low voice, "My lord, since this place is already over, why don't you go south out of the city as soon as possible."

Chang Yu snorted: "I have to finish it."

Li Muxian was puzzled, and Chang Yu smiled: "There is a chess piece that needs to be appeased."

It's Gao Jie.

Gao Jie is a secret chess piece used by Chang Yu to balance Liu Zeqing, but recently he saw what the little eunuch did to Liu Zeqing, and he couldn't help but feel the sadness of the rabbit and the fox, and he was worried that the rabbit would die and the dog would cook, so in order to avoid chaos, Chang Yu decided to give him a doomed shot before leaving.

So he asked people to go to the General Military Mansion to invite Gao Jie.

"It's such a good day, when you go out for a walk" Chang Yu stretched his waist: "It's better to go fishing in Daming Lake." The crowd enthusiastically refused but Chang Yu waved his hand: "Fishing is a quiet thing, just let the great monk accompany you, you ......" said with his eyes swept away: "The blood bat should still be in the city, you are idle, why don't you take the opportunity to kill him in one fell swoop, it can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people" said this refers to Li Muxian: "One side is long and resourceful, plus many masters, this matter can be done."

Su Jing has always liked to be alone, and she was extremely reluctant in her heart, but it was not easy to sweep Chang Yu's face, so she reluctantly agreed.

The palace housekeeper prepared fishing tackle and sent a car to send Chang Yu to Daming Lake, the monk Haihong refused to take the car, walked with the car, and the waking bell on the Zen stick rang all the way, which was refreshing.

The weather is hot, and if there are a lot of people enjoying the shade on the lakeside on weekdays, as soon as the government notice comes out, all of them go out of the city to catch locusts, and even the fishing boats on the lake are much less.

Chang Yu found a remote and desolate place to fish under the shade of a tree and a rod under the river wind, because the more overgrown this kind of place, the easier it is to catch fish.

Monk Haihong meditated with his eyes closed a few meters away.

"Great monk, curious to ask, how did you grow so strong if you didn't eat meat and fish?" Chang Yu asked, and Monk Haihong opened his eyes and looked at the lake: "Whole grains also nourish people, and being strong is practiced, not eaten."

Chang Yu was speechless, this monk is also a cold character, but it is different from Sujing, although Sujing is cold, sometimes he is like a talker, and the monk cherishes words like gold, except for a few more words when he first met, he usually looks like a dumb person.

Chang Yu, who was bored with himself, had to fish with peace of mind, but his luck was very good, and he caught more than ten fish in a short time, happy like an eighteen-year-old child, but it was Amitabha Buddha who was a monk with his hands folded.

Gao Jie came, riding a horse alone, but he was uneasy in his heart.

The little eunuch asked people to send a letter to him, saying that there was a secret matter to discuss, but he knew that it was in such a remote place, which suddenly made him suspicious, the little eunuch would not want to be himself.

After all, he knew the secret that the little eunuch wanted to kill Liu Zeqing, could it be that he didn't trust himself, Liu Zeqing looked at the lonely figure of the little eunuch by the lake in the distance, and the surrounding forests were lush and overgrown with weeds...... It's a great place to kill people and abandon corpses.

His subordinates must be ambushed around, Gao Jie was a little hesitant to go over, sat on the horse and wandered in place, reached out and touched the dagger hidden in his waist, and finally gritted his teeth, the little eunuch didn't need to be so obvious if he wanted to kill himself.

"Donor, you seem to be very scared" Haihong came out of the bushes and startled Gao Jie: "I'm afraid of your mother, dead bald donkey!" ”

The monk was not angry, and said lightly: "The little overseer has been waiting for you over there for a long time."

Gao Jie snorted, scolded and slapped the horse away, turned over and dismounted on the lakeside: "The lowly Gao Jie has seen the factory supervisor."

Chang Yu waved his hand and glanced at him: "I don't know how to bring a watermelon when I come."

Belch...... Gao Jie was slightly embarrassed: "I'm going to buy it."

"Forget it, I'm going to tease you" Chang Yu beckoned, Gao Jie looked around closely, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "The adults have caught so much."

Chang Yu snorted, looked at the lake and asked casually, "Does Mr. Gao like to eat fish?" ”

"I like it, but I can't do it and I can't fish," Gao Jie smiled.

"Ben Du is good at this, eat grilled fish together in the evening and taste Ben Du's craftsmanship" Chang Yu said lightly, Gao Jie was overjoyed: "I am fortunate to have the Lord Governor personally cook."

"It's three lives to have a meal, and I'm lucky to be happy like this" Chang Yu heaved and looked up at Gao Jie: "Then if I talk to you about a big deal, won't you have to go to heaven."

"Do you want to make a deal with the lowly position?" Gao Jie was surprised, and his heart was cold, it wouldn't be the same as Liu Zeqing's life-threatening deal.

Chang Yu knew what he was thinking when he saw the change in his expression, and said lightly: "This business is very different from Liu Zeqing's business, a serious business, a business that makes a lot of money."

Gao Jie breathed a sigh of relief: "What does the Overseer want to do with the lowly position?" ”

Chang Yu looked at him and smiled: "The premise of doing this business is to be sincere, and Bendu has to ask you something first."
