Chapter 381: Xuan He's Price

Since the Dongji Factory was set up in the Toutiao Hutong of Baodafang, and the entire Hutong was renamed Dongchang Hutong with great fanfare, the once beautiful Jinyiwei was gradually suppressed. Jinyiwei's affairs often have to be sideways in the East Factory, but Jinyiwei can't take care of anything in the affairs of the East Factory, and the leaders are just that, but the Jinyiwei Captain Xiaoqi and other errand officials will inevitably have to wait for others when doing things, so the colleagues who are transferred to the East Factory are rarely talked about every day.

However, Mu Ning, who was consecrated and sentenced to thousands of households in front of the East Factory, was considered a high-ranking and powerful person, but he did not feel that his life was any better. Although there are not many eunuchs in Dongchang, and there are only six or seven people in total with the addition of the admiral eunuch Lu Feng, but when he has to salute and talk to a group of eunuchs every day, and even accompany the smiling face, he will inevitably be angry in his heart.

On this day, he took off his official skin and came to a restaurant on Qianmen Street, pedaled up to the third floor and went straight to a box, and after closing the door, he slammed the six-in-one hat on his head, and then sat down, picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it dry. After pouring such a breath of tea, he complained angrily: "If I knew this, I wouldn't have gone to Dongchang to be the son of Lao Shizi to punish thousands of households, it's like everyone is suffocating to death!" ”

"I know you're embarrassed, but no one else can do this except you, and you can only make it difficult for you." Yuan Fang knew that Mu Ning said this, but he was not ambiguous in doing things, so he didn't beat around the bush, "I came to you today for an important matter." Zhang Yue sent a message that there were unknown people watching around his teacher's mansion, and some people even entered the house at night, so I sent two groups of people. That same night, they spotted the suspicious man's tracks, only to end up with him. ”

"Lost? How is this possible! Mu Ning knew Jin Yiwei's ability to track and conceal his head, and immediately put away the little complaint at the beginning, "How many people did the adults send?" ”

"There are eight people in four groups, and they don't even hold a single hair." Yuan Fang picked up the teacup and took a sip, his expression was extremely solemn, "Zhang Yue said that it was likely to be the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, but I didn't believe it yet, but now I feel that eight or nine are not far from ten. Except for the White Lotus Sect Leader who has the ability to evade the detection of the state capital's Tianluo Net and the Jinyi Guard, who still has this ability? ”

"But since she entered the house, and there was no one in the Du Mansion to defend her at that time, why didn't she ......?"

Mu Ning's words stopped abruptly only halfway through, and suddenly thought of a possibility. After exchanging glances with Yuan Fang, he saw that the other party nodded slightly, and immediately gasped: "What my lord means is that people didn't intend to harass the Du family in the first place, but wanted to see what we could do?" If Jin Yiwei really went to investigate, they would know that Jin Yiwei and Master Du had an unusual relationship...... You must know that when Lord Du vigorously banned the White Lotus Sect in Qingzhou, it happened to be me who was instructed by you, or the backup information I brought someone to provide! But wasn't it because the adults were doing things according to the emperor's wishes? ”

"You know, but others don't necessarily know. Therefore, even if you don't know whether it is the remnant of the White Lotus Sect or Tang Sai'er, this matter cannot be sloppy. Although I have an extra heart this time, and the people I sent are all fresh faces, and I don't bring any brocade clothes and waist cards, but there is no guarantee that people will not know. All in all, after you go back, you might as well mention that Lu Feng, just say that you got the news from Jinyiwei that the remnants of the White Lotus Sect failed to assassinate him at the beginning, and now they are ready to disadvantage him. He recruited so many people in the East Factory, it would be a pity not to take advantage of it. ”

Seeing that Mu Ning agreed, put on his hat and was about to leave, Yuan Fang suddenly stopped him again: "Although you are in charge of the punishment of thousands of households, and you only care about the punishment of Dongchang and ignore other affairs, but this punishment scale is in your hands, presumably you should have some connections these days." Others can ignore it, but you have to tell them to keep an eye on Huang Yan, especially every move outside the palace. Hengzhu Lu Feng is at odds with him, even if he knows, he will only be happy and will not blame you. When Huang Yan left the palace before, he had disappeared from under the noses of Jinyi Wei four or five times in a row, and Meng Xian was back in charge of Changshan's guards, so he couldn't let them go. ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I've written it down."

Seeing Mu Ning put on his hat and went out, Yuan Fang did not leave immediately, but still sat in place and continued to taste the tea that had completely lost its taste. Although this restaurant is not his property, it is almost inseparable from his, and the proper people who use it up and down can be regarded as a reliable contact point. He has to be like this, King Zhou will be raised if he is so cautious, not to mention that all the power comes from the emperor? At this moment, he couldn't help but gently stroke his waist, and the emperor's angry face appeared in front of him again.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open again, but this time it was a scribe who came in, with ordinary appearance and ordinary clothes, placed in the middle of the current street full of etiquette and etiquette examinations, like a drop in the ocean and inconspicuous. The man closed the door and bowed deeply, and when he straightened up, he was still standing.

"Sit."

"The subordinates don't dare."

Although he does not have a prominent background, Yuan Fang has been in charge of Jinyiwei for many years, and has done countless secret businesses. At this moment, he sat steadily and looked at the person in front of him intently for a while, and finally raised his eyebrows and smiled: "There is no official position of you in the Jinyi Guard, so your subordinate claims to be wrong." If Miss Fan wants to be stable, wouldn't it be better to stay in Nanjing? It must be known that the reputation of Jinyiwei is not good. ”

"The crown prince and the crown prince have been called to leave Nanjing, and there will only be some civil and military officials left behind in the future. At the beginning, the East Palace did not dare to make any moves under the emperor's nose, and now that the capital has been moved to Beijing, it is impossible to focus on Jiangnan. However, Hanwang had been operating in Nanjing for many years. Even though he has been in Le'an for more than three years, Nanjing's power is still deep-rooted, and if I am found there, there will be only one dead word, and Beijing is safer in comparison. ”

She paused slightly, and then said: "Although Jinyiwei has a bad reputation, it is always better than those royal relatives who are more sanctimonious but dirty. Since the adults have asked me about the situation, they naturally think that I am still useful. Although I can tell everything with me, if I want to say that I understand Princess Yongping, no one in the world can beat me. ”

"Okay, since you say so, then I want to see what you can do!" Yuan Fang's face was upright, and his indifferent and restrained gaze just now suddenly became relevant, "There is also the East Factory above Jinyiwei, and there is a fixed number of personnel, so I can't give you any serious title, but the secret spies of Jinyiwei have always been controlled by me personally." Since you have followed Princess Yongping for many years, you should know a lot about their secret correspondence and personnel seals, and I authorize you to build this line, and I will allocate it to you as soon as you apply the degree and manpower. It's just that your name naturally can't be used, so you might as well give yourself another name. ”

"The princess used to name me Yuqing at the beginning, and later changed her name to Fan Xiyan by Fan Tong's side, but these are no longer available. All the trees become a forest, gather sand into a tower, please call me Lin Sha in the future. ”

After deciding on the master and slave, there are naturally a lot of things to talk about next, so Lin Sha, dressed as a scribe in Tsing Yi, stayed here for more than half an hour before getting up to say goodbye, and when he left, he still closed the door lightly. It wasn't until there was a sound of three long and two short voices outside the door, confirming that the person who should leave had indeed left, and there was no other movement around, that Yuan Fang said angrily: "Have you seen enough and heard enough?" I've said that that little injury doesn't get in the way, a manly husband can use such a mother-in-law and mother? ”

As soon as the words fell, a wall next to it was silently moved, and a person walked out of it, it was Zhang Yue. Glancing back at the place where he had just been hidden, he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, and then said: "Uncle Yuan, I am naturally here for your injury, but this is only one of them, what I want to know more is, how did you anger the emperor first?" ”

"The emperor is moody, no matter who it is, it is common for him to be angry, and I am not the first."

Yuan Fang replied lightly, and when he saw Zhang Yue Shi Ran sitting down in front of him, he clearly didn't believe it, so he smiled to himself: "I know that you can't be deceived by this heavy mind." The emperor ordered me to thoroughly investigate the rebellion of King Zhou, and you know, I came out of Kaifeng, where I naturally had the most eyeliner, and as a result, there was countless conclusive evidence from the Kaifeng Zhou Palace. However, I know King Zhou's character very well, and he has no courage to rebel, so I was puzzled, so I had to check the few people who came out with the first secret, but I found a lot of bad deeds. I know that Lord Chen Liujun has helped you a lot, although I can't make a mistake with the emperor in the matter of King Zhou, but I can cure those guys, so I reported this to the emperor, and the emperor became angry. ”

Zhang Yue gasped when he heard this. He thought that someone was taking advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters, however, judging from Zhu Di's unbelievable attitude, could it be that this was originally the emperor's intention?

"This is a big case of rebellion, so I submitted the excerpt I wrote myself at that time, and after reading it, the emperor lost the inkstone, and then ordered someone to take the charcoal basin, and threw the fold into the charcoal basin and burned it all - I saw it burned clean."

Speaking of this, Yuan Fang couldn't help but look at Zhang Yue thoughtfully, and suddenly asked: "Zhang Yue, although I have never dealt with Du Yishan head-on, I know that he is a righteous gentleman who is bright and upright and has never had the slightest ghostly thoughts. Yang Shiqi and Shen Min are not as daring as him, but they are also people in the clear stream, with me to sweep away those private things for you, you can be a free and easy gentleman who is as gentle as jade, in fact, you don't have to work hard yourself. ”

"My father-in-law and Mr. Shiqi and Mr. Minze are all real readers, but I have a big family after all, and I can't get rid of it. Besides, even if Uncle Yuan is deeply trusted, isn't this time just as thrilling? Besides, once a son of heaven and a courtier. ”

Thinking of the alarming attitude of the emperor yesterday, Zhang Yue finally had a deep emotion about his identity as a son of a family. Being in a prominent family, it is natural that there are countless advantages over others when you land, but at the same time, there are countless troubles? It is said that Yongle Emperor Zhu Di is the son of heaven who treats heroes the most, but the humerus such as Zhang Fu is inevitably suspicious, if he is not vigilant, he will not be able to change the sky when he wakes up one day.

Xuanhe's price has always been like this. Zhang Fu is still unwilling to retreat bravely, let alone at a young age?
