Chapter 389: Leakage

Chapter 389: Leakage

Although there are still many eunuchs in Nanjing, since Zhu Di stayed in Beijing in the name of the Northern Tour, the number of eunuchs who have been retained one after another is by no means a small number. Most of these huge number of eunuchs were only rough envoys who agreed to be long-term attendants, and very few were able to transfer to specific palaces to serve the concubines and emperors. Therefore, at this time, those who can enter the palace through the left and right doors before the noon gate are all eunuchs with heads and faces in the palace.

Therefore, when Qian Baihu stepped forward to let the eunuch with a girdle around his neck come out, these eunuchs who were blocked at the door and could not enter couldn't help but be dissatisfied, but most of them were still whispering, only one of them muttered loudly.

"When will it be the turn of foreign officials to take care of us people?"

Zhang Yue ignored these questioning voices, and saw that Qian Baihu stepped forward to make a gesture to invite, but the young eunuch refused to come out, and his original doubts suddenly turned into vigilance. And the eunuch saw that Qian Yun was about to use force under his impatience, so he immediately took two steps back, and shouted in a shrill voice: "Lord Zhang, we are all the envoys of the ladies of the palaces, not those ordinary promises to follow for a long time, if you want to be powerful, please think twice!" ”

Although he frequently enters the palace, Zhang Yue goes to the West Palace Renshou Palace the most, and the Qianqing Palace is two or three times, and the eunuchs who lead the way each time are often taken to the secluded road, and the number of times he meets people is very rare. At this moment, Zhang Yue raised his eyebrows, but he pushed aside Qian Baihu and stepped forward, and asked coldly: "You just said that it was Niangniang's order, but I have never stepped into the inner palace for half a step, how can you know me?" Others, do you know who I am? ”

Seeing that none of those eunuchs recognized him, he became more and more determined to think about it, and immediately sneered and said: "Then, let me ask you another question, who knows this father-in-law, and which lady in the palace does he serve?" ”

Since they can dial in to a specific palace to serve the concubines, these eunuchs are undoubtedly smart people, and they can't help but look at that eunuch, but no one has spoken for a long time. At this time, all the dissatisfaction they had just had with each other's words had come to naught, and the person standing next to the eunuch involuntarily dispersed, leaving him alone in the middle.

At first, I felt that this person was suspicious, and then I found that those lustful and inward-looking words were more meaning to sow discord, and at this time, after such a confrontation, Zhang Yue's suspicion has become vigilant, and he is even more unwilling to let go of these suspicions easily. At this moment, he commanded in a deep voice: "Qian Baihu, drag him out and search him!" ”

Thinking of the great power of the central official, Qian Baihu was originally a little cowering, but at this time, hearing Zhang Yue give such an unrelenting order, he immediately had no hesitation, and immediately led his subordinates to come forward and put people over. He ripped off the young eunuch's leather scarf, and at this moment, the idea of searching his body was suddenly thrown out of the clouds, and he immediately exclaimed: "How can there be an Adam's apple!" ”

This sound not only surprised Zhang Yue, but the other eunuchs were also in an uproar. This palace city is very large, and there are hundreds of eunuchs in the six palaces in the east and west, and there are even more errands in the twenty-four yamen of the imperial city. They just thought that this eunuch didn't know which yamen it was, and he didn't know what to do in the palace when he got the pass waist card. This is said to be a private entry into the palace in a small way, and a bad attempt in a big way!

Seeing that his identity was exposed, and he saw that several fierce officers and sergeants had already pressed their hands on the waist knife, as if they would hack themselves to death as long as Zhang Yue gave an order, the fake eunuch was suddenly distracted, and immediately begged for mercy: "The adult is gracious, the younger one is the adopted son of the young eunuch Jiang Gonggong, because he is in a hurry and can't find his father, so he made this decision, not intentionally entering the palace!" ”

A quick-eyed sergeant took off the waist card of this fake eunuch, and immediately returned it and presented it to Zhang Yue. Because of Huang Yan, he really doesn't have a good impression of the celebrant eunuch, not to mention that this person didn't confess it at the beginning, but caused such a turmoil, if he indulges in it lightly, he can't say it. At that moment, he didn't look at this pleading fellow, and spat out two words with an expressionless face.

"Search!"

At this time, it was already a quarter of the night, and the sky was already dark, and the cold wind alone blew people's faces with pain, not to mention undressing and searching all over the body at such a time. After a while, the young fake eunuch was frozen with tears and snot. Qian Baihu personally walked over with a pile of sundries he had found, Zhang Yue pushed aside some bits and pieces, and then picked up three pieces of paper. After reading the words on it clearly, his heart jumped, and his already gloomy face completely hung up.

"Come on, send people to brocade clothes...... Inner East Factory! ”

Seeing a group of sergeants twisting people up and walking away like wolves, these eunuchs in front of the noon gate were suddenly silent. Especially a few people who have just whined and said strange things. However, to their surprise, the front foot escorted people away, and Zhang Yue nodded coldly at them: "Today's matter is also thanks to your identification, if Dongchang asks, you just need to answer truthfully." Although there are so many people in the palace, you may not be able to recognize them all, but if you encounter this kind of thing again in the future, please keep your eyes open and don't be used as a gunman, otherwise it will be too late to regret this disaster! ”

This combination of soft and hard words suddenly made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, they were a little afraid. Zhang Yue didn't think much of going to Neidong Factory in person, and was about to order someone to follow there to remind him, but at this moment, he suddenly saw a bright light from far and near on the side of the end door, and immediately stopped. After a while, the bright light arrived in front of them, and people saw clearly that it was a guard carrying a lantern, and Zhang Yue recognized that it was a personal guard beside Zhou Bailing, and hurriedly greeted him.

"What's going on?"

"My lord, there's a man from the barracks, saying he has an urgent matter to see you! Lord Zhou naturally said that you went to the palace to inspect and let him say it directly, but that person said that he could only say it to you alone, and he said that it was your cousin-in-law. Adults can't help it, so we sent us to Xuanwu Gate, Donghua Gate, Xihua Gate and Wumen Gate to guard, waiting for you to come! Oh, and the adults also said that the movement over there has been made for people to see, so you can rest assured. ”

With a cousin-in-law, Zhang Yue suddenly thought of Wang Yu, who was content and happy. Although the matter here has not been completely resolved at the moment, he thinks about it and feels that Wang Yu will not be the kind of person who talks about trivial household matters, so he finally decided to take this trip. After deducting the three extremely important pieces of paper, he instructed Hu Qi, who had met and dealt with Lu Feng, to follow him to Neidong Factory, and instructed Qian Baihu to guard the noon gate, and then left in a hurry with the others. Stepping on the snow all the way out of the left gate of Chang'an, he saw a few horses waiting there, and the horses' hooves were wrapped in non-slip straw, he couldn't help but secretly praise Zhou Bailing for thinking thoughtfully, and hurriedly turned over on the horse's back.

Galloping back to the small courtyard outside Bei'anmen that was used as a temporary residence, he jumped off his horse, threw the reins to a horse and walked straight inside. Lifting the thick cotton curtain and entering the main room, he saw Wang Yu sitting next to the brazier at a glance, and Zhou Bailing was pacing in the room. Seeing him coming, Wang Yu hurriedly stood up, while Zhou Bailing grabbed a fur hat next to him and buckled it on his head.

"Lord Xiao Zhang, since you're back, then I'll go out to patrol and inspect!"

Zhou Bailing has always been knowledgeable and interesting, since Wang Yu refused to say whether he was alive or dead, he simply stayed aside and didn't ask a word, and at this time, he saw Zhang Yue nodding and went out. When he came out of the courtyard, he glanced back by the way, and saw that the two guards who were not leaving Zhang Yue were guarding the door at this moment, and he couldn't help but wonder. That Wang Yu is just a small general flag, how can such an identity be worthy of Zhang Yue's cousin? However, I have to say that this little general flag is calm and steady when he looks at it, otherwise he would not be easily moved by his words, and ordered 100,000 people to find Zhang Yue back in a hurry.

Wang Yu, who was in the main room, saw Zhang Yue raise his hand and told him to sit down, but at this time, he couldn't calm down no matter what. Sitting by the hot brazier, he only felt stiff from head to toe. At this moment, he took a deep breath, his right hand held his left knuckle tightly, and then he held back a sentence.

"Third cousin, my uncle...... He's going to rebel! ”

Even if Zhang Yue has always been able to hold it, he can't help but feel his heart beat violently twice at this moment. Even though he knew that Wang Yu was not the kind of sensationalist who liked to speak without being shocking and dying, he still couldn't help but stand up and shouted: "You should know the proportion, this kind of thing can't be nonsense!" Didn't you say that your uncle treated you very well? ”

"He was very good to me and believed in me, but he gave me a ...... today after he was drunk Show me this! Wang Yu suddenly pulled open the thick cotton robe on his body, took out a tight oil-paper bag from the close-fitting clothes, and handed the things in it to Zhang Yue with both hands after uncovering it, "Third cousin, look at it, I was almost paralyzed after reading this at that time!" ”

Zhang Yue took it, and at a glance recognized that the folded piece of paper was a special imitation of Chengxintang palace paper. However, compared to this detail, when he saw the first line, it was the real shock. Seeing the end all the way at a glance, he had to admit that although the literary style was slightly inferior to those Chinese scholars who wrote brilliantly, this edict was still full of flowers, and the reason for the abolition of the crown prince and the establishment of King Zhao was that the crown prince was negligent in the past three years, and so on, if it was more than enough to fool the people.

"It's not your uncle doing it alone, is it?"

"Not really." Wang Yu pinched his palms with his fingernails heavily, trying his best to keep his mind clear, "I also learned that my uncle was drunk today, and he has always been Lord Meng Xianmeng's staff. Other people who planned this matter included generals in the army, as well as eunuchs in the palace, and they had already asked people to prepare for entering the palace through the celebrant supervisor, as long as they covered the imperial treasure, they could lead their troops into and out of the gates of the imperial city, as long as they ...... As long as this edict is sent in with the imperial seal, and when the emperor is driving, they will be able to rob the inner treasury with soldiers, divide the troops and ministers, and support King Zhao to ascend the throne! ”
