The emperor waved his hand: "Count you as clever, otherwise, if you use your identity, I will punish you for the crime of bullying the king!"

Chang Wei grinned, "The minister's unauthorized use of a fake name is also a last resort, the minister's ** is messing around, and it is easy to travel, and it is easy to travel, without a fake name, wouldn't it damage the dignity of the court?"

"Strong words!" the emperor scolded, probably remembering that he was also using a pseudonym to make a private visit, and he couldn't help but smile. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"** Nonsense, and it's easy to travel. I thought that you were living in a shallow house and introspecting yourself, and I didn't want to disturb the princes and ministers in just a few days, and even I was alarmed by you! I thought that you could make friends with relatives, seduce county lords, spy on important officials in the court, and fight in wine shops.

"Your Majesty, those are really Li Long's actions, and they are very powerful. Chang Wei felt a little uneasy in his heart, especially Ning Xin'er's.

I had already guessed in my heart that Chong Yao had already told the emperor what he knew about him, but even the emperor knew that he had a conflict with Liao Xi and Hong Qifa in Yipinlou, so it can be seen that the intelligence system in the emperor's hands is really huge and effective.

"Oh?" the emperor was a little surprised when he heard this, "Could it be that Chang Wei and Li Long are two people?"

"Although the Buddha-figure doppelganger is one, they have their own functions. Since Chen Changwei entered Beijing, he has stayed at home, and news of relatives and friends has been cut off, because the minister knows very well that the minister's situation is delicate, and even if there is no major event in his body, he should be cautious. However, as a minister, how could he not be informed? Therefore, he acted in the name of Li Long. 」

The emperor was silent, and he suddenly asked Chongyao, "Ning Xin is fifteen years old this year!"

"Emperor Mingjian, Ning Xin's birthday in February. 」

"When the queen married me, she was only fifteen years old......

Chang Wei's heart suddenly rose to his throat, the emperor doesn't want to give him a marriage, right? There shouldn't be such a good thing, the princess hasn't married yet, how can he send a county lord?

Listen to him continue: "Chongyao, the Queen Mother likes Ning Xin very much, I will leave her in the capital and not return to Datong, you go back and tell Ning Yuanhou that I want to find her a good mother-in-law." As he spoke, he glanced at Chang Wei.

Chang Wei was very bitter in his heart, he was really unlucky, did he want to resist the order?!

But before the words could be spoken, the emperor had already waved his hand to signal him to shut up, and turned his head to Mr. Zhang: "Pass on my message, Zhao Xuan'er, the fifth daughter of the Marquis of Ningyuan, the county lord of Ningxin, is elegant and intelligent, and she has the heart of the Empress Dowager of the Holy Emperor Zhang, and gives two palace maids and a hundred silk horses. As for Li Long......

His eyes fell on Chang Wei, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which actually made Chang Wei feel a bad feeling in his heart: "The emperor called me Li Long, which play is this singing?!"

"The gentleman Li Long was worried about state affairs, and the rain and flooding in the capital, he took the lead in donating 10,000 taels of silver, which can be regarded as a model for the gentry, and he was awarded a hundred households in brocade clothes. Li Long, don't be busy thanking you, your fake identity, I am now helping you become true, Chongyao is a relative, Zhang Zuo is my confidant, I am not afraid that they will know, but if you show your flaws, let irrelevant people know that Li Long and Chang Wei are really the same person, I want you to look good!" He smiled slightly: "I heard that you are a strange skill, this little thing is not difficult for you!"

"Li Long's body is a gift from the emperor, dare not do his best to serve the emperor!"

"Okay, Zhang Zuo, pass the decree tomorrow to announce that Qin Guogong and Deng Qi will enter the palace......

The next day, the Imperial Palace!

[The ministers of Qin Guogong and Jinyi Wei were all commanded to promote Beizhen, the Palm Firearms Machinery Bureau, and the Houjun Governor...... Chang Wei knocked on the emperor!]

"The ministers and horses, the former military governor, the Jinyi Guard commander Tongzhi, the Huguang Qing official of the Criminal Department, and the Wailang Deng Qi, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, knocked to see the emperor!"

Walking nearly 2,000 steps, passing through the Nine-Fold Vermilion Forbidden Gate, escorted by the forbidden army's swords, guns, swords, halberds, Chang Wei and Deng Qi finally went to the Imperial Gate.

Changing into a rolling dragon robe, the young man sitting on the dragon chair exuded a unique momentum from top to bottom, which made people can't help but bow to the ground.

However, after reporting a long list of official titles in person, Chang Wei couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, it was really tiring to read such a long list of titles.

"The two Aiqing quickly flatten down and give a seat. The emperor raised his hand and led him falsely, and Dongshan under the stairs smiled and brought a round pier to Bai Lan, and took advantage of people's inattention to secretly squeeze his eyebrows with Chang Wei.

Chang Wei knew from Chong Yao that he was the eldest son of Jiang Yunmei, the third brother of Empress Dowager Jiang, and seeing him present, Chang Wei already understood that he was the emperor's true confidant.

The emperor first talked to Chang Wei about a few family things, asked how the recent preparations were, and waited for Chang Wei to return.

He also said: "Deng Qing has supervised the rivers and lakes for me and the imperial court for fifteen years, during which the rivers and lakes have been promoted to a level, which is really the credit of Qing. However, Qing ran for me, his wife couldn't be reunited for a long time, and he couldn't bear to be a monarch. Qing also repeatedly recommended Qin Guogong, saying that his Wen Tao Wu strategy is a temporary choice, enough to take over the important task of Qing, I think about it, and I will play it!"

Deng Qi was overjoyed, and immediately prostrate on the ground to thank him, and said that he owed his wife too much in the past, and now he just wants to spend more time with her, so he resigns from his position.

"It's okay to take a break for a while, but Aiqing is a pillar of the country and should contribute to the country. He went to the positions of Jinyi Guard, Criminal Department and Nanjing Officials, and was promoted to the former military governor Tongzhi, and the county lord of Yilun was the princess of Yilun. 」

Deng Qi's promotion to the former military governor Tongzhi was expected, but Yilun's promotion to the title of princess was a rare glory, Deng Qi was excited, and kowtowed again and again.

The emperor asked Dongshan to help him up, and praised him a few more words, before he said to Chang Wei: "Patrolling the rivers and lakes on behalf of the heavens, it is related to the safety of my rivers and mountains, Qin Guogong, you are unruly, and you are the pillar of the imperial court, I have no intention of letting you take on this position, but Deng Aiqing and several princes and ministers are sponsoring you, so you can share my worries......!"

"Let's go, let's go to Hongbin Lou for a drink, and I'll be the east today to celebrate the promotion of Grandpa Guo!"

The emperor left Deng Qi and instructed Jiang Chi and Jiang Dongshan to send Chang Wei out of the palace. Jiang Chi was still like a person in the palace, and as soon as he left the palace gate, he immediately hooked his shoulders and put his back on his back, laughing.

"Dongshan, it should be Li Long who went to Hongbin Mansion with you to drink, don't forget this. 」

Chang Wei smiled: "From now on, Chang Wei will not only have to change his mind, but also can't make friends with the princes and ministers!"

"The emperor's words, you haven't forgotten a word!" Jiang Chi laughed, Xiao Yuan's eyes turned twice, he reached out and touched Chang Wei's shoulder a few times, and suddenly asked: "You boasted about Haikou in front of the emperor, saying that you could hide it from Taiqi and them, but they have all seen your true face of Lushan, and I racked my brains and didn't figure it out, what tricks do you have to turn things around? Just rely on this beard......

"It's just a disguise technique. Chang Wei smiled: "This is just a small skill of carving insects on the rivers and lakes, to put it bluntly, it is worthless, but you still need the cooperation of the little marquis." 」

"Oh, no wonder the emperor asked me to follow you, it turned out to be a cover for you! I thought he was finally merciful and found me something to do!"

Chang Wei smiled slightly, but he didn't say anything, and said secretly in his heart, Jiang Chi, you are wise and foolish, and you are the emperor's closest relative, but the emperor wants to focus on cultivating the confidant, I don't know the purpose of letting you follow me!

Don't worry, I don't have much interest in this position now, and I will give it to you after two or three years. However, if you are in a hurry to play yin with me, hehe, if I won't use the power given by the emperor, then I will be an idiot.

After getting into the carriage, he took out the disguised guy's thing, and wiped his hands on his face a few times, Jiang Chi's eyes suddenly widened: "Huh? It's fucking weird, you're obviously Chang Wei, but why do I think you're Li Long? But it doesn't seem to be exactly the same as what I saw yesterday." 」

He was amazed, looked at it carefully for a long time, and muttered: "The beard is gone, the lips are thin, the eyebrows are long, the corners of the eyes are curled, well, the key is that look, how the fuck look frivolous and profligate!"

"Little Hou Ye has good eyesight!" Chang Wei said with a smile, "In two days, this appearance will change until everyone thinks that Chang Wei and Li Long are two completely different people. 」

"Interesting!" Jiang Chi was a little bit clearer, and said happily: "You really have a lot of bezoar dog treasures on you! You don't know, my daughter-in-law's mother's whole big vinegar jar, Lao Tzu raised two concubines outside and was almost beaten to death by her, this time, I learned from your grandmother, and changed her appearance! See how she finds me!"

Speaking of pride, I couldn't help but laugh lewdly: "There are a lot of people tonight, so I will go to Hongbin Building first, you will give me a disguise tomorrow, and we will go to Cuiyun Pavilion with Xiao Fengxian!" sighed again: "It's a pity that I didn't go to Baihualou for a few days, and the white peony was ransomed, and his grandmother's didn't even have a whereabouts! Otherwise, we would go to Baihualou." It's a pity.

When Chang Wei heard this, he guessed that Chongyao did not confess everything to the emperor, at least he did not mention that the white peony was redeemed by himself.

Speaking of which, he was able to find the white peony that night, firstly, because he knew that Chang Wei went and returned to Baihualou, and secondly, he knew that Chang Wei had rented a room in the Lan family, and others did not know the joints, so they naturally couldn't guess Chang Wei.

However, the Lan family is not very safe, and it is the best policy to transfer her away as soon as possible, and the house in Shen Lizi Hutong cannot be built halfway.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but hear in my ears the seemingly unintentional homely words of the emperor before leaving the palace: "I heard that Lu Shi plays the piano well, let her stay in the capital for a few more days, I don't want to hear her play the piano one day." 」

The emperor's words are a holy decree, if he doesn't mention this matter again, Lu Xin will live in Beijing for the rest of his life, plus Ning Xin, the emperor has quietly put two shackles on his neck, fortunately, no one knows that Lu Xin is Qingluan, I have to find a substitute for her quickly.

Jiang Chi sighed on the side, but laughed again: "You don't see my brother-in-law's appearance as a prince, you can't find the white peony, he is like a mourner, that distressed!"

Laughing and laughing, his little eyes suddenly stared at Chang Wei with some sympathy: "I heard the emperor say, Ning Xin has taken a fancy to you, but I don't understand, there are beautiful girls, you have nothing to provoke that crazy girl? She is a hedgehog, she pricks people when she sees them, and she turns her face faster than turning a book, she laughs with you one moment, and stabs you with a knife the next moment! A few days ago, my father invited his brother and sister to have a drink, and Taiqi made a joke at the banquet, and this girl stopped doing it, scared, and fell on Taiqi's face with a wine glass! My tigress isn't that powerful!

"Really?!" Chang Wei said in surprise and distress, but he laughed secretly in his heart--Ning Xin is a tigress? Can a tigress make the emperor and the queen mother so happy? I'm afraid you all look away.

Remembering yesterday Taiqi and Chongyao raised the bar, it turned out that the root problem was here.

"When I met her, I didn't know she was the county lord, and when I knew, it was too late. 」

I told you what had happened.

Although Jiang Chi joked about the gags in a hip-hop, all the questions could be asked, and after a few words, Chang Wei suddenly understood that he was asking questions for the emperor, of course, there was only one purpose, to corroborate each other with the words of the full glory, to see if the two of them were loyal to the emperor and did not hide it at all.

No wonder the emperor didn't let him go back to the Marquis of Changning Mansion yesterday, but fortunately, Jiang Chi didn't know that I had already met with White Peony, so he inadvertently let Chang Wei guess the general framework of Chongyao's duet, and answered them one by one according to Chongyao's ideas.

The two talked and laughed and came to the Criminal Department, the Criminal Department had already received the Holy Decree, the Criminal Department was not there, the left waiter Li Chengxun personally received the two, checked the official documents, and said a few words with good words, so he called Huang Liang, a nominal subordinate of Chang Wei, Zhejiang Shilang, to explain the matters in accordance with the Holy Decree.

In fact, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been people who supervise the rivers and lakes, and almost all of the people who supervise the rivers and lakes on behalf of the heavens have the title of a certain official of the criminal department, and the criminal department has the most detailed confidential files related to the rivers and lakes, and it is naturally convenient to access the files; second, with this title, once necessary, they can directly intervene in the local criminal name, in order to quickly resolve disputes and obtain first-hand data.

It is estimated that Deng Qi considered that the old nest of the Jin Ge Society was in Zhejiang, and the battle with the Changkong Gang was closely related to private salt, and the Zhejiang Division was in charge of the salt transportation of the two Zhejiang, so he suggested to the emperor that Chang Wei should be a part-time Zhejiang Division, and Jiang Chi, as his assistant, naturally became the head of the Zhejiang Division.

In the entire criminal department, only Shangshu Zhao Jian knew the true identities of Chang Wei and Jiang Chi, Huang Liang did not know, and his subordinates were full of foreign officials and directors, and suddenly there were two more people, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Fortunately, he recognized the famous Chang Wei and Jiang Chi, a national relative, but he did not dare to be dismissive, introduced his colleagues, and took them to familiarize themselves with the various divisions and confidential archives of the Criminal Department.

Of course, you should be familiar with the work process of Yousi, but the key point is this archives warehouse, looking at the vast archives, Jiang Chi took advantage of Huang Liang's lack of attention, and couldn't help but let out a wail: "Mom, so much! Not to mention three months, even three years can't be seen!"

"Let's wait until I ask Master Deng clearly!"

Chang Wei looked around, the towering trees outside the house blocked the sun, the warehouse was dim and hazy, almost occupying the entire room The bookshelves were mottled with red paint, and the books on the shelves were even more old and yellow, and the air was filled with the vicissitudes of history.

For a long time in the future, Chang Wei will bury himself in this pile of old papers, explore the secrets of the rivers and lakes, and grasp the pulse of the rivers and lakes.
