Chapter 214: False alarm
At the same time that Empress Zhang took away the body of Emperor Hongxi, Su Bolang opened the altar in front of the Zhenwu Palace, and fished out things from the oil pot, and the copper coins strung on the top of the cotton thread were not falling, which made the ministers on the scene open their eyes and be amazed.

Not only that, in order to highlight his ability, Su Bolang also played a unique skill, that is, taking fire in the air, his right palm kept shaking in the air, and then suddenly caught fire in front of everyone, and calmly extinguished the fire after showing it to everyone, which made the ministers can't help but be in awe of him.
Su Bolang pretended to cast spells there, and on the grounds of the guidance of Emperor Zhenwu, he finally chose Yang Shiqi, Qian Yi, Zhou Zheng, Lu Zhongqian, and Zhang Fu to guard the five elements of the Yin and Yang Five Elements Qiankun Great Array, and specially protected the Dharma for Emperor Hongxi.
Subsequently, in addition to Yang Shiqi's five people, the rest of the officials and governors returned to the council, and on the way there were many discussions about Su Bolang's magical expression, and they were particularly impressed by the fire in the air, and for a time they actually diluted Emperor Hongxi's sudden fasting, and many people were privately inquiring about Su Bolang's origin.
Because Yang Shiqi was in the palace, the cabinet was commanded by the second assistant Yang Rong, and the Ming Dynasty was in a delicate period of "dragons without leaders".
At the end of the morning, Li Yuntian changed into a set of clothes as an attendant, preparing to quietly leave the palace in the dead of night.
"Li Yushi, please." Just as Li Yuntian was about to leave the Qin'an Hall with several rotating attendants, Zhu Yuxin came to him and solemnly blessed him.
"The county lord is serious, this is the duty of the lower officials." Hearing this, Li Yuntian hurriedly bowed to Zhu Yuxin and replied respectfully.
"Li Yushi is both wise and brave, with both ability and political integrity, and the county lord has a doubt in his heart and wants to ask Li Yushi for advice." Zhu Yuxin smiled slightly and said coquettishly.
"The county lord, please speak, the lower officials know everything." Li Yuntian didn't know Zhu Yuxin's intentions, and replied quietly.
"The lord of this county heard that the new pavilion is Li Yushi's property, presumably Li Yushi knows who the Ming Xin Jushi and the Ming Xin Pavilion owner are?" Zhu Yuxin looked at Li Yuntian with a smile and asked with interest.
"It's not a secret, it's all the pen names of the lower officials." Li Yuntian thought that Zhu Yuxin was going to ask some tricky questions, but he didn't expect to ask him about the identity of the Mingxin monk and the owner of the Mingxin Pavilion, so he generously admitted it, and there was no need for him to hide it from Zhu Yuxin.
"Li Yushi, I wish you a smooth journey and return to the capital with the prince's brother as soon as possible." The corners of Zhu Yuxin's mouth showed a sly smile, and she blessed Li Yuntian.
"Cheng County Lord Ji Yan." Li Yuntian bowed his hand to Zhu Yuxin and walked out of the hall door with several attendants.
According to Emperor Hongxi's edict, no one was allowed to come to the Qin'an Temple to harass him during the period of fasting and blessing, and those who violated it would be dragged out of the noon gate and killed.
"Smoke lock pond willow!" Zhu Yuxin stood at the window, staring at Li Yuntian and disappearing into the night, then smiled and muttered to herself, she was very curious about why Li Yuntian had such profound and novel knowledge. The update is the fastest and most stable
From Beijing City to Nanjing City, the fastest way is naturally to use the 800 expedited and go straight to Nanjing City all the way non-stop.
However, it is a pity that Li Yuntian can't do that, although he can reach Nanjing City and meet the prince in the shortest possible time by using the eight-hundred-mile expedited, but in this way, his whereabouts will be exposed, and the consequences are unpredictable.
Therefore, Li Yuntian dressed up as a rugged man with a beard, and his identity was a cloth merchant, and he went to Nanjing to find a job, and Jinling was the richest place in the Ming Dynasty, and there were naturally more business opportunities.
The reason why Li Yuntian used the cloth merchant as a cover was not untargeted, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce started on the basis of cloth, and he naturally understood the doorway in the cloth business, so he could deal with it calmly even if he was questioned.
Empress Zhang had already asked Li Yuntian to prepare a road guide, his name was Zhao Rong, Li Yuntian went to Tongzhou early the next morning and boarded the passenger ship heading south.
Because it is a straight stream, if you are a qiē shun lì, the passenger ship can arrive in Yangzhou in about six or seven days, and then rush from Yangzhou to Jinling.
Li Yuntian asked for a single room, but since he got on the ship, he has been closed, secretly waiting in the room for the passenger ship to arrive in Nanjing, and he was really bored along the way.
If you think about it carefully, this is the second time in less than a year that he has come to send the holy decree related to the Daming Jiangshan Sheji, and I don't know if it is lucky or unlucky.
A few days later, the passenger ship entered the territory of Nanzhili and arrived in Huai'an Province.
Huai'an is the hub of the canal, the salt transport is rushed, the choke transport, the salt transport, the river work, the pass and the post of the machine, the famous transport governor Yamen is in the Huai'an city, and Yangzhou, Suzhou and Hangzhou are called the four major cities on the canal.
When the passenger ship stopped at the Huai'an wharf, night had fallen, and Li Yuntian pushed open the window, and a brightly lit town immediately appeared in front of him, and its prosperity was no less than that of Yangzhou.
"If you have a chance in the future, you must live in Nanzhili for a while and enjoy a good life." Looking at the bustling streets and noisy crowds on the shore, Li Yuntian couldn't help but secretly say that when the crown prince ascended the throne, he would take a vacation to relax.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, Li Yuntian's brows furrowed slightly, and he opened the door quietly, he didn't ask for any service.
"This master, I'm sorry, our ship can't continue to go south, the owner only charges you half of the boat fare, you can find another ship to go south." Outside the door, a fellow handed him a piece of broken silver with an apologetic face.
Only then did Li Yuntian notice that there were still a few guys in the corridor to inform the guests in the other cabins to leave, and two of the guests argued angrily, but then the guy on the other side whispered a few words, and the two guests gave up arguing and packed up their things with a depressed face.
"What's going on?" Li Yuntian frowned and asked the guy who informed him.
"Master, the Cao Gang requisitioned this boat, and I ask you to take care of it." The guy lowered his voice and arched his hand towards Li Yuntian with a smile.
"Cao Gang?" Li Yuntian was slightly stunned, he only then thought that the main hall of the Cao Gang was also in Huai'an, how could the boatman dare to offend the people of the Cao Gang if he wanted to eat on the waterway?
Huai'an is only hundreds of miles away from Yangzhou, and the boatman refunded half of the fare, which can be regarded as the end of benevolence and righteousness, Li Yuntian immediately packed his luggage and went ashore, found an inn to live in, and prepared to find a boat to Yangzhou early tomorrow morning, so that he would not cause any trouble for such a boring thing.
At midnight, Li Yuntian put his hands behind his head, thinking about how to meet the prince after arriving in Nanjing City, his current identity is a commoner, so naturally he can't contact the prince of the Ming Dynasty.
As for how to make the prince leave unnoticed after seeing the prince, he already has a detailed arrangement, and he can definitely deceive the people living in Nanjing City.
"Yu Qian, it's up to you now." After weighing it for a long time, Li Yuntian muttered to himself, he was not familiar with the situation in Nanjing City, and the only person who could make him trust was Nian Yi Yuqian, who was named on the gold list with him.
As early as when Li Yuntian was in charge of Hukou County, Yu Qian was transferred by Yang Shiqi to the Nanjing Metropolitan Inspection Academy, where he interned in the Nanjing Metropolitan Inspection Academy.
The Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate is the same as the Beijing Metropolitan Procuratorate, and there are thirteen supervising imperial histories below, but each of them either does not have a supervising imperial history, or there is only one supervising imperial history.
Moreover, the number of people who supervise the imperial history of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate is counted in the Beijing Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the total number of one hundred and ten remains unchanged, that is to say, there is one less person in the Shandong Daode Imperial History of the Beijing Metropolitan Procuratorate, and this person is Yu Qian, who is resident in the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Yang Shiqi's intentions can be described as well-intentioned, in addition to inspecting the security of Nanjing City, another important task of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate is to enter the palace on duty, so that there are more opportunities to contact the prince.
As the prince of the country, the crown prince will definitely reuse his own people after ascending the throne, and Yu Qian's career will be smooth sailing.
Although Li Yuntian and Yu Qian have not met a few times, the two often correspond, and they have been friends for a long time, Li Yuntian believes that Yu Qian's personality will definitely help him complete the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
Just when Li Yuntian was about to fall asleep, there was a slight sound at the door, and his eyes couldn't help but show a look of surprise, he was very familiar with this sound, it was the sound of pulling the deadbolt with a dagger, which meant that someone wanted to open the door.
After frowning, Li Yuntian reached out and touched the dagger placed under the pillow, and his heart suddenly became nervous, he still couldn't determine the other party's intention, did he find out his identity? Or is there another intention?
Soon, only a click was heard, the door bolt was opened, the door was carefully pushed open, Li Yuntian pretended to be asleep on the **, he felt two people tiptoe in, and then gently rummaged through his luggage.
Li Yuntian couldn't help but let me get into the dagger in my hand, secretly guessing whether these two guys were looking for the holy decree or money
If it was looking for the Holy Decree, these two guys would never have imagined that Li Yuntian had hidden the Holy Decree in an unexpected place, in the pillow where he slept.
"Let's go, we've got this kid's money." Soon, a man's voice came, as if he had taken his money bag from Li Yuntian's baggage.
"Wait a minute, I'll see if there's anything of value on this kid." Immediately, a woman's voice rang out.
Then, Li Yuntian felt that a person was walking towards him, his brows were furrowed a few times, and he decided to pretend to sleep first to see the other party's intentions.
The person who came stopped in front of the **, cautiously turned under the pillow and groped on Li Yuntian's body, his movements were light and skillful, and he hardly felt anything, he could see that he was a veteran, and he wanted to find out if Li Yuntian had anything valuable.
Inadvertently, someone touched the dagger in Li Yuntian's hand, and his body was suddenly slightly stunned.
"Say, Who sent you?" At the same time, Li Yuntian sat up, pulled the other party into his arms, put the dagger on his neck, and asked coldly and in a low voice.
"Uncle spares his life, the concubine just wants to get some oil and water, and she has no intention of harming the uncle." It was a woman who was pulled into Li Yuntian's arms, and she was startled when she saw this, and hurriedly begged for mercy, with a local Huai'an accent.
"Wife!" The other person in the room realized that the shape was not good, and hurriedly rushed over, and by the light outside the window, he saw the dagger around the woman's neck, and couldn't help but shout with concern, also with a Huai'an accent.
"I don't want to make trouble, put down my money bag and leave, tonight's events can be treated as if they didn't happen." Li Yuntian felt that the thieves didn't seem to be coming at him, but wanted to steal, and after a deep groan, he said to the thin man in his thirties.
At this moment, he had clearly seen the woman in his arms, who was nearly thirty years old, and should be a couple with the thin man.
When the thin man heard this, he hurriedly put the money bag in his hand on the table next to him, and Li Yuntian let go of the woman in his hand when he saw this.
The two thieves glanced at Li Yuntian and left in a hurry, Li Yuntian immediately stepped forward and reinserted the door bolt, and couldn't help patting his chest, he was really a false alarm just now.
Because he didn't want to cause trouble, Li Yuntian let go of the pair of thieves, but he made a big mistake, the pair of thieves spoke with a Huai'an accent, how could they suffer this dumb loss? One
