The assassination case was quickly closed, and only two of the dozen assassins escaped without a trace, and the rest of the assassins were all captured by Yu Linwei's men and beheaded in Xishi the next day.

Even the lame assassin who was killed by Li Xin, the body was dragged to the West Market and cut in two.

Li Chun, the little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, was exempted from the punishment of grounding because of his timely escort, and his rank of Wusan official was promoted from the flying cavalry captain of the fifth rank to the small cavalry captain of the fifth grade, and he was awarded the general martial arts.

This kind of military officer is actually a martial artist, which is not the same thing as a real job, and it is useless in essence, but it can be regarded as a kind of brilliance, for example, Li Xin, the Marquis of Pingnan, who was on an expedition, although he was only a marquis, but on Wuxun, he was a general of the Pillar State from the first grade, and in the imperial court, there were almost no generals with a higher rank than him, which shows the weight of the Marquis of Pingnan in the heart of the Son of Heaven in Chengde.

After dealing with those assassins, Yu Linwei, who was in charge of the defense work, was ordered by the Son of Heaven of Chengde to apply for a pass, after all, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the assassins were mixed with the Son of Heaven and the like, which was considered a dereliction of duty by Yu Linwei.

In addition, there is no follow-up to this matter, and the news of Li Xin's injury to the little man has not spread, as if it had never happened.

From the first day of the first year to the fifteenth day of the new year, it is the time for hundreds of officials to take a break, that is, annual leave, so even if the seventh prince wants to declare his merits for Li Xin, it will be after the fifteenth, and during this time, Li Xin still focuses on recuperating from his injuries.

Fortunately, the injuries on his body were not very serious, and he would be able to walk on the ground after two or three days, in order to prevent the wound from bursting, Li Xin made a suspender with a strip of cloth and hung his arm.

In the past few days of rest, he took a detailed look at the information sent by Cui Jiuniang, which contained simple news about Yu Linwei.

Yu Linwei belongs to the army of the Son of Heaven, and the same belongs to the army of the Son of Heaven, as well as the internal guards near the palace, Zhou Cheng and Sun Jing, who were sent to protect Li Xin, are divided into internal guards, and the internal guards belong to Yulinwei before the first emperor's dynasty, and they are the northern yas of Yulinwei, but the first emperor assigned the Yulinwei of this northern yato to the internal guard supervisor in the palace, and over time, he was not called Yulinwei, but directly called the internal guard.

The other Yulin Wei Nanya, which is where the black man Zhang Xiao was located a few days ago, is located in the southern city of the capital.

The internal guard of the northern yaya is responsible for the security of the palace and the palace guard, while the Yulin guard of the southern yaya is responsible for the security of the entire capital.

The internal guard of the North Ya was controlled by the eunuchs of the internal guard, and the Yulin Wei of the Southern Ya was under the jurisdiction of the Yulin Zhonglang General, and the Yulin Zhonglang General was ranked five products, and his status was not high, but the position of the Zhonglang General was extremely weighty, so over time, the position of the Zhonglang General became a springboard, a springboard for the middle-level generals to jump from high-level generals, as long as the person who held this position, it would be promoted quickly without accident.

As a result, the position of this Zhonglang general is almost always held by the generals in the capital, but no matter who sits in this position, the guards of the north and south are all in the hands of the Son of Heaven, because the north and south guards are the only two armed forces in the capital.

In addition to these two forces, there are only some catchers and officials left in Jingzhao Mansion in the capital.

Of course, there are still many forces outside the capital.

Li Xin half lay on the bed, flipped through Yu Linwei's information and read it several times, and finally threw this piece of letter full of Yu Linwei's news into the stove at hand.

Then he closed his eyes and weighed in his mind.

"This Nanya Yulinwei is the most important force in the capital, and it is also a more important position in the capital, if you can enter the Yulinwei, maybe there will be something to do......"

As the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, loyalty must be guaranteed, so the recruitment standards of the two guards are very strict, generally after the heroes in the capital, or after the death of the army, they must be innocent citizens again, and the annual screening standards are very strict, like Li Xin, it is estimated that it is difficult to enter Yulinwei.

However, a few days ago, Zhang Xiao, the captain of Yulinwei, was willing to guarantor Li Xin, so it would not be very difficult to enter Yulinwei.

You must know that the official system in Yulinwei, in addition to the Zhonglang General, Changshi, and the left and right Lang generals, the following is the captain of the Duwei, the captain is in Yulinwei, and there are at least 200 people under his hands, which can be regarded as a small official, and it is not difficult to enter Yulinwei with the recommendation of Yulinwei's captain.

The difficulty lies in how to get rid of the relationship with the Seven Princes on the bright side.

If he is labeled as a prince, even if he can enter such a critical guard, it is unlikely that he will climb to a high position, after all, for the Son of Heaven, the biggest "competitor for the position" is his son, and no emperor will relax his vigilance in military power.

Li Xin sat alone in the room and thought about it for half a night, and finally made up his mind that he still had to find a way to enter Yulinwei.

After entering Yulinwei, at least he has his own identity on the surface, just like Zhang Xiao, the captain of Yulinwei, he can completely ignore Li Chun, the little marquis of Pingnanhou Mansion, so that his life safety is guaranteed.

Thinking of this, Li Xin wanted to write a letter to the Seventh Prince to communicate, but his right hand was still hanging on his chest, and he had no way to write with his left hand, so he had to give up this idea in the middle of the night.

Just when Li Xin was thinking about his future, in the dormitory of the Son of Heaven in the imperial city, Dong Cheng, the eunuch of Tianmu in red clothes, knelt on the flat ground with five bodies, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the matter of the assassination in the first year, the slaves and maids have already found out, it is the thief of the Li family in Nanshu who is not dead, among the thieves who entered Beijing before, two of them are still the royal family of Nanshu, and the rest are the remnants of the old ministers of Nanshu. ”

Speaking of this, Dong Cheng paused, and then continued: "The two assassins who escaped, the slaves and maids are still chasing them down with Yu Linwei. ”

Chengde Tianzi snorted, and said with some displeasure: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you can still let these descendants of Li Shun blend into the capital, and mix within five steps of me, you people are really rice buckets!" ”

Dong Cheng knelt on the ground, trembling.

Tianmu Jian is the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, and he is also the person who helps the Son of Heaven to find out the news, but the assassins entered Beijing without their knowledge, which is indeed a crime of dereliction of duty.

"Your Majesty, the slave is guilty of a capital crime..."

The Son of Heaven Chengde was still a little unkind, and said in a low voice: "What about the two descendants of Li Rebellion?" ”

"Together with the Assassins, I have already cut ...... in half"

"Cheap them."

Chengde Tianzi sneered.

"Pass the decree, catch the person who is the descendant of Li Rebellion, promote the first level, and reward a hundred dollars."

Dong Cheng's face was embarrassed, and he bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the person who got those two descendants of Li Cheng is not a soldier of Yu Linwei, but an ordinary person in Datongfang. ”

Speaking of this, Dong Cheng raised his head slightly, secretly glanced at Emperor Chengde, and said in a low voice: "That person, Your Majesty should still have an image......

"Chase ......"

Chengde Tianzi frowned: "Is that Li Xin?" ”

A few days ago, because the Ninth Princess was going to establish a mansion in Datongfang, the people from Tianmu Prison also went to check on that Li Xin, and Emperor Chengde naturally had an image.

Dong Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty was assassinated that night, and the two descendants of Li Shun fled to Li Xingongzi's house in a panic. ”

Speaking of this, Dong Cheng paused, and then continued to speak.

"However, Li Xingongzi was also injured a lot, and now he is recuperating at home."

The Son of Chengde frowned slightly, thoughtfully.
