Text Volume 1 Dismal Business_Chapter 13 East Factory
Wei Zhongxian's bent posture couldn't straighten up for a long time, and Zhu Youzhen's gentle tone made him a little unsure, what did this Prince Xin think.
When Wei Zhongxian staggered back to the Maode Palace, a civil official wearing a scarlet robe and a six-beam crown on his head was hurriedly walking towards this side with the little eunuch beside Wei Zhongxian.
Standing in the wide square, Wei Zhongxian waved his hand for the little eunuch to go back and monitor the movements of the Maode Palace. When there was no one near the two, Cui Chengxiu said solemnly: "It's not good, Father-in-law Wei." I and the ministers should enter the palace, and as soon as I entered the Xihua Gate, a eunuch pretended to pass on your order and led me to the side hall. I've been waiting for a long time, and I've just learned that Gonggong Wei doesn't have this order. I see that Gonggong Wei is now going to order someone to clean up the palace ban, in case Xiaoxiao frames you and me..."
Wei Zhongxian just looked up at Cui Chengxiu strangely, and then interrupted Cui Chengxiu's words and said, "Cui Butang, can't you see it?" Today's palace is no longer yesterday's palace, the people and trees are scattered, but I haven't fallen yet, and the monkeys in the palace have already gone to find a big tree. I'm afraid that if I order the clean-up of the forbidden center, someone over there will come and arrest me with an edict. ”
Cui Chengxiu, who was originally lucky, listened to Wei Zhongxian's words, his face turned pale suddenly, and then he returned to normal and said to Wei Zhongxian: "The matter has come to this, what are the plans of Father-in-law Wei?" ”
"Now all this is just some people who are deliberately trying to deal with us, and since they regard us as eunuchs who are in chaos, at least they will not use illegal means to deal with us and others, so that they will be true. These people will not use their own knives, and in the end, they will definitely use the sword of Prince Shin against us and others. Wei Zhongxian said and stopped thinking about it.
After Cui Chengxiu listened to Wei Zhongxian's words, he immediately reacted: "In this way, then we still have a chance to live." Today, the capital is in the hands of the Beijing camp, and most of the generals in the capital camp are the servants of the British government, and the British government has always been loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.
Within the capital is the imperial city, and the imperial city has always been garrisoned by brocade guards. As long as Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun are still in control of the Beizhen Fusi, then we can still have the strength to fight. The first task now is to find out the thoughts of His Royal Highness Prince Xin, if we act rashly and provoke His Highness, then we will all die without a place to be buried. ”
"Do you believe in the Prince's mind? I'll try it out, but now you should hurry into the temple. Since someone has set up a bureau to separate you and Li Yongzhen, they won't end it easily. If you don't go in again, someone will be impeached soon, and you and I will secretly plot against you. Wei Zhongxian, who survived the conspiracy, had come to his senses and commanded Cui Chengxiu.
Seeing Cui Chengxiu turn around and walk towards the Maode Palace, Wei Zhongxian once again beckoned to the cronies and eunuchs beside him, and commanded hoarsely: "Go to the East Factory and tell Qianhu Yang Huan and Sun Yunhe, let them be careful in the past few days, and let them contact the Jinyi Wei Du Commander Tian Ergeng, the Du Commander Xu Xianchun, Cui Yingyuan, who will be on duty in the Neidong Factory for a while tonight." ”
After instructing his cronies and eunuchs, Wei Zhongxian rubbed his cheeks to sober himself up, then straightened his clothes and walked towards the Maode Hall again.
The eunuch who was a close confidant of Wei Zhongxian ran out of the palace gate in small steps and ran towards the location of the East Factory in the east of the imperial city. When he ran to the gate of the East Factory, he was stopped by two captains who were students.
"Bold, who are you, you dare to stop me, do you know who I am?" The little eunuch scolded angrily.
The two Jinyi guards glanced at each other, and then an older Jinyi guard clasped his fists and said with a smile: "This little father-in-law, we just came to Dongchang today, I really don't know who the little father-in-law is, I don't know if I can ask the little father-in-law to make it clear." ”
The little eunuch raised his head and reprimanded the two captains: "Remember, I am Gao Xiaosong beside Gonggong Wei. Hurry up and make way for me, Father-in-law Wei has something to order the two of them to punish thousands of households, delaying Father-in-law Wei's affairs, do you suffer from the crime? ”
After listening to the words of the little eunuch, the two lieutenants did not immediately get out of the way, "This Gao Gonggong, it is really not long after the villains came to the duty, and the two thousand households have just ordered that no one is allowed to enter the East Factory without notification, and they also ask Gao Gonggong to wait." ”
After Lao Cheng's lieutenant finished speaking with a smiling face, he immediately instructed his companions beside him: "Xiaoshi, don't hurry up and report to Lord Qianhu." ”
Another young lieutenant, who was holding the hilt of the knife at his waist tightly in his left hand, seemed a little nervous, and only after being reminded by his companion did he come to his senses and turned his head and ran towards the factory.
Although the little eunuch was not satisfied with the attitude of the two new lieutenants towards him, he also knew that Gonggong Wei was in a bad mood these days, and if something happened, he would be unlucky. I couldn't help but stand to the side with my back to the side, thinking that after a while, I would come and clean up these two new captains who had no eyes.
Seeing that although the little eunuch was puffed up, he didn't find anything wrong, and Zhao Chunhua, the little banner of Jinyi Wei, slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, in the duty room of the East Factory, Yang Huan and Sun Yunhe, who were in charge of thousands of households, sat next to each other, and they said with a wry smile to Dong Kun, who was sitting opposite the two of them: "Why is this, aren't I all serving Your Majesty?" ”
Sitting on the chair blocking the door, Dong Kun said with a rigid and expressionless face: "Even if you are serving Your Majesty, the two thousand households should sit here." Your Majesty's dictation, is it rare that the two of you still have any doubts? ”
Yang Huan and Sun Yunhe immediately stood up and saluted and said, "The minister doesn't dare." The two thousand households who were blocked in the duty room couldn't help but glance at each other when they heard the noise outside the door, and sat back dejectedly.
A hundred households, who were taking over the affairs of the East Factory, heard the report of Xiao Shi, the captain of the gatekeeper, and hurriedly walked into the duty room to report to Dong Kun's ear.
After listening to this, Dong Kun thought for a while, and then said to the two Dongchang thousand households: "Since the two thousand households are loyal to Your Majesty, then show me." ”
Dong Kun simply explained the matter, and the two Dongchang thousands of households looked at each other for a while, and then hurriedly agreed.
Under Dong Kun's surveillance, the two little eunuchs from the East Factory were sent away, and Wei Zhongxian came to deliver the message.
After the little eunuch left, the two thousand households gathered around Dong Kun and asked cautiously: "This, this request of Father-in-law Wei, what do you think Dong Qianhu should do?" ”
"If there's anything unpleasant, just do it." Dong Kun smiled coldly, and then summoned the hundred households who were in charge outside and gave a few orders.
Sun Yunhe thought about it and gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you wait for a few people to come, and then detain them in Dongchang?" ”
Dong Kun looked at the two of them and said mockingly: "Our Jinyi Wei only obeys His Majesty's orders, Your Majesty just doesn't want to see that after his big trip, there are traitors who take the opportunity to make trouble." As for whether to dispose of these people, it depends on the intention of His Majesty the new emperor. ”
