The courtyard is deep, surrounded by vermilion walls and yellow tiles, and the wind can only pass high overhead.
However, the raindrops like flour still fell flutteringly, dyeing the flowers and trees of the entire Miyagi all green.
In the depths of the forbidden palace, in a small side courtyard, the old eunuch Lu sat on a crunching rocking chair, slowly shaking his body, and slowly peeling the peanuts in his hands.
Several eunuch leaders dressed in red robes stood respectfully in front of him, whispering something.
The rain was fine and dense, but none of the people in this group noticed that their clothes were soaked with stains, and they just discussed in the open air in a low voice.
Slowly shattered the shell of the peanut, took out the kernel with the red coat inside, and then gently rubbed off the thin layer of skin with his fingers, and then threw the peanut into his mouth, and chewed it to smithereens.
The old eunuch Lu squinted his eyes very intoxicated, carefully tasted the mellow fragrance of the peanut kernels, and said slowly: "What fragrant peanuts, what a nasty little rabbit, alas, my child has only been out for a few months, and there are people who want to make trouble behind my back and take away my father-in-law's power." ” Very carefully patted the little crumbs on his hands clean, and the old eunuch Lu sneered: "Little Lizi, okay, I don't owe my father-in-law, I felt so sorry for you back then, and I really had a bit of father-in-law's demeanor."
Hehe, Dongchang, how long has it been since it was established, and the foundation has not yet been solid, so I dare to calculate my father-in-law behind my back.
If you want to take over the Tenglong secret spy, this is the idea of His Royal Highness, but if you want to share the power from the hands of Jinyiwei, where does this put my father-in-law and me?"
A eunuch leader laughed sinisterly, and said flatteringly: "Father-in-law, that little cub is not authentic and wants to compete with Lord Lu for power, but you can't just let him go."
It's better to do this, let's just start as soon as possible, and give him directly" He made a gesture of chopping with a knife, and said softly: "Cut the grass and eradicate the roots, as long as His Highness does not let His Highness know, this matter will be over."
Now that there is an undercurrent in the city, we will secretly kill a few people without attracting the attention of others. ” Slowly picked up a cup of tea, the tea in the teacup dissipated into light smoke in an instant, and the wisp of light smoke was sucked into his mouth and melted into a green tea again.
With this unpredictable kung fu, it is obvious that the old eunuch Lu's Taoist cultivation is already very impressive, after all, so many elixirs given to him by Lu Feng are not used to fill the numbers.
Swallowing the tea very gently, the old eunuch Lu threw the clean tea cup back on the small square table beside him, and stood up slowly.
"It's raining heavily, my father-in-law and I'm going back to the house to take shelter from the rain.
Alas, I'm old, the years are not forgiving, I'm a little wet, why are the bones in my body sore, go, you little cubs, alas, my father-in-law I'm too lazy to take care of things, you look at it, Your Highness, the director of state affairs, my father-in-law and I suddenly became idle, and no one asked my father-in-law for instructions on things inside and outside the palace.
Alas, you can see what you do."
A fine light flashed in his eyes, and the old eunuch Lu showed a very terrible smile and walked into his room slowly.
The leaders of the eunuchs looked at each other, their faces were full of hideous smiles, and after kneeling down and kowtowing in the muddy water, they respectfully withdrew.
As soon as he exited the gate of the small courtyard, the big eunuch with the highest status had already scolded in a low voice: "Go quickly, the four battalions of Tenglong secret spy, Jinyi guard, and janissary guard tiger, leopard, wolf and eagle are on standby at any time." ” Since ancient times, there have never been such arrogant eunuchs in the palace, they rose straight into the air, exerted high and high kung fu, stepped on the eaves, the top of the wall, and ran away quickly.
With that murderous order, all the forces under the control of Old Eunuch Lu were running rapidly, like a cobra in the dark, standing up and ready to launch a fatal blow at any time.
On the main hall of the palace, Yuan Shengxiong stood there in a tangled and high-spirited manner, and shouted loudly to Zhu Xi who was sitting on it: "Your Highness, in this Yingtian City, there are too many things that are people and not people.
Someone dared to attack Jinyiwei on the street, this is a crime of rebellion, if it is not thoroughly investigated, it will not let those lowly villains succeed The minister has found out, the hard crossbow used by those people is from the armory of the Ministry of War is the attack instigated by the officers of the Ministry of War behind the scenes, so the minister thinks that all the officials of the Ministry of War should be put in prison of Jinyiwei" Coughing, Ouyang Supreme added: "Ahem, Your Highness, what Lord Yuan said is a little too serious, but the strong crossbow did come out of the armory of the military department, and this matter must be investigated in detail."
It would be too much to say that all the officials of the Ministry of War were imprisoned, but it is necessary to ask all the adults of the Ministry of War to cooperate with the investigation. ” Zhu Xi looked at Yuan Sheng with a smile on his face, and was happy in his heart: "Okay, Lu Qing's family is gone, and I thought that an arm was missing."
But I didn't expect that this yuan thousand households could do it.
Aren't those people in the military department all supporting the second brother, hehe, just take advantage of this reason to change all the people in the military department, which is not bad.
But he looked at the arrogant and domineering Yuan Sheng, who did not look at all the ministers in the entire hall, and still frowned and thought: "But it is also too arrogant, how to say, now I am also in charge of state affairs, but he is making a lot of nonsense in the main hall, and even how to deal with the officials of the military department, it can be seen that he is a barbarian who does not know how to be an official at all." ” Without even looking at the high-ranking Zhu Xi, Yuan Sheng pushed away Ouyang Supreme with one hand, stood in front of the group of military officials extremely arrogantly, and said very presumptuously: "You, it's you, colluding with the thieves, providing them with weapons, and letting them attack the men and horses of the Jinyi Guard, you are a group of traitors, you should have wiped out the Nine Clans, left your daughters and granddaughters, and sold them to the Jiaofang Division as bitches, but it's not bad, my lord, I must be the first to appreciate it." ” The "presumptuous" angry roar made the entire hall tremble a few times.
Several generals of the Ministry of War stood up extremely angrily, and looked at Yuan Sheng menacingly: "You are a small thousand households, you dare to be so presumptuous in front of us and other members of the Ministry of War, but if you rebel against you, even if the crossbows used by those thieves come from the armory of the Ministry of War, what does it have to do with us to guard the armory, isn't it the people and horses of your Five Cities Governor's Mansion?"
Zhu Xi frowned and glanced at the little plum beside him.
Xiao Lizi also frowned, took a step forward, and was about to speak.
But Yuan Sheng was a guy who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and after listening to the reprimands of those military officers, he immediately turned his face.
A heavy foot stomped on the ground, making the entire hall almost jump a foot high on the spot, and Yuan Sheng howled loudly: "Tsk, yes, yes, yes, you guys still have a fucking reason Well, it's true that it is the city defense army that guards the treasury, but Ben Qianhu has already consulted the ordnance archives, and all the ordnance matches the registered numbers."
Only a month ago, someone took 500 crossbows from the treasury with a warrant from the military department" The faces of several generals of the military department changed, and they looked at several civilian officials such as the secretary of the military department and the squire of the military department.
The face of the military department Shangshu is wonderful, blue at one time and purple at the other, like a pumpkin that has become a sperm, and the color on his face really can't tell what it looks like.
Yuan Sheng saw such a scene, and immediately jumped up excitedly: "Come on, come on, I tied them up to raid their homes, raided their homes, and together with their correspondence and case files, they were all copied by Lord Ben, and tied them up."
Yuan Sheng was so excited that he was jumping around in the main hall with his teeth and claws, and no one dared to open his mouth in the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, including the left and right imperial history.
The officers of the military department have ghosts in their hearts, but a small number of other ministers have taken refuge in the monk Daoyan and joined his heart Buddhism, so naturally they will not speak; Part of it was because Jinyiwei grasped the handle and pinched the sore foot, so he naturally didn't dare to speak; There are also some ministers who are gloating about the unfortunate military department, and they are naturally reluctant to speak.
For a while, I could hear the Yuan Sheng shouting there endlessly, but the golden gourd warriors up and down the main hall, which one dared to move was not Zhu Xi's order, and who dared to tie up the dignified Ming Dynasty second-rank officials, the dignified military department Shangshu and the officials of the military department on the main hall The corners of Zhu Xi's mouth hooked a smile, and he said softly: "Yuanqing's family, this case, but it is handed over to you, you must find out who let the military hard crossbow flow into the hands of the bandits."
Alas, the father's expedition to Yuanmeng took too long; Lord Lu went to the West to share worries and make contributions to the imperial court; Xu Qing, Zhou Chu, Lu An, and Lin Shi led Jinyiwei south to handle the case, which made the entire Yingtiancheng supervision force weak for a while, and the people's hearts were loosened. ” The Yuan Sheng, who was jumping up and down like a monkey, suddenly quieted down, his face was full of a warm and jade-like divine light, and his face was an unfathomable and warm smile, as if he had suddenly changed from an uncivilized barbarian to an enlightened Buddha.
"Your Highness, the minister is willing to share your worries for Your Highness.
It is the duty of the ministers to supervise the world and control the hearts of the people in the world.
Although Lord Lu and the others were burdened with heavy responsibilities and went out of Beijing to do business, the minister still stayed in the capital, and the minister could share the worries of His Highness. ” Zhu Xi laughed, glanced at the adults in the military department, and then glanced at the solemn Yuan Sheng, and said with a long smile: "Good, good, good, this is very good."
Director Li, how many Jinyi guards are there in Yingtian City now" He looked at Xiao Lizi, this matter, he didn't ask the two senior generals present at Jinyiwei, but asked Xiao Lizi, the implication was very unfathomable.
Xiao Li Zi bowed respectfully and said in a low voice: "Your Highness Qiqi, now in Yingtian City, there are less than 1,000 official brocade guards.
Those who were recruited on an ad hoc basis, though numerous, were embarrassed to be reused.

The minister thought that with such a force, he really couldn't afford to defend Gyeonggi and supervise the world.
Please also ask Your Highness to be clear. ” With a smile on his face, Yuan Sheng stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Your Highness, the strength of Jinyiwei is too weak now.
Lord Lu went to the West and took away three or five thousand good hands; Xu Qing and the other four adults went down to the south to track down the former dynasty, tracking down the whereabouts of that person, but they also took away thousands of good hands.
Although Jinyiwei still has a large number of secret agents left in the capital, it is not enough to deter the world. ” Zhu Xi laughed, nodded and said, "Gu knows about this."
Director Li drafted a holy decree and promoted Yuan Qianhu to the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, together with Ouyang Qing's family, to govern the Jinyiwei in the capital.
Isn't there enough manpower in this brocade guard, so let's draw good hands from the guards and the forbidden army to supplement it.
Replenishing to two thousand, barely enough.
After all, there are still a large number of good players around Lu Qing's family, if Jinyiwei is expanded too much now, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain it when his father returns to Beijing. ” After a pause, he suddenly whispered: "As for the places where Jinyi Wei is out of reach, the people of Dongchang will work together to handle it." ” There was a rumble, as if a thunderbolt had struck on a sunny day, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces and Yuan Sheng were like toads that were frightened by thunder, opening their mouths wide and unable to speak.
This is good, it doesn't matter if Jinyiwei expands again, but Zhu Xi's gentle words made Dongchang come out of nowhere, and it became half of the capital's intelligence system.
The civil and military officials were wailing: "The tight spell of Jinyiwei has not been lifted, but Dongchang has come out and heard that Dongchang is near Beiping City, which really makes everyone dare not speak, how can it be good now?"
Yuan Sheng looked at Zhu Xi with a smile and knelt down respectfully.
The poisonous fire was churning in his heart, and he was so angry in his heart that he was almost about to split a palm thunder and kill Zhu Xi alive on the spot.
"Good, good, good, it's really a good son of the Zhu family, no one is simple.
Ben Sheng spent a lot of effort, and it was easy to let his subordinates have more people, and he could have a legitimate excuse to deal with these ministers of civil and military affairs, but he made you a wedding dress, a little eunuch surnamed Li, you wait, you don't have the little head below now, be careful with the big head above you. ” In the depths of the forbidden palace, the old eunuch Lu, who was lying on the bed with squinting eyes, was listening to the report of a celebrant eunuch: "Father-in-law, His Royal Highness and Father-in-law Li, the two of them really played a good show."
God doesn't know the ghosts, but he takes away half of the power.
Especially the Yuan Qianhu of Jinyiwei, who is really inexplicable, is so presumptuous in the main hall, but it was used by His Royal Highness, so that the newly established supervision agency and Jinyiwei of the East Factory are on an equal footing, which is simply unreasonable. ” The eunuch was very angry, but the old eunuch Lu said slowly: "This matter, that Yuan Qianhu of the brocade guard is obviously my little cub's henchman, so he acted arrogantly, not to mention, he didn't mean to cooperate with His Highness's actions."
As for His Royal Highness, it is only natural that Dongchang will share a piece of Jinyiwei's pie this time.
Old Eunuch Lu laughed yin: "Xiao Lizi has followed His Royal Highness for so many years, and it is time for him to take the throne."
Moreover, can Your Highness rest assured that there is only one capable person under him?"
The eunuch suddenly realized, with a look of admiration, nodded at the old eunuch Lu and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, you are really wise, why can't the little ones analyze this matter, but you broke the sky at a glance, and it really made the little ones admire it, but father-in-law, since you said that it is natural for Dongchang to grab power from Lord Lu, then the manpower we have prepared, do you want to do it?"
Old Eunuch Lu squinted at him, and said leisurely: "Father-in-law, what did I tell you to do, there are many things, father-in-law, I don't know."
Xiao Li Zi Well, he is still young, I think back then, how long did my father-in-law and I get to where I am today, and now he actually wants to take the place of my father-in-law, what do you say about this little lesson" Leaving aside his relationship with himself, the old eunuch Lu suddenly laughed, his long nails lightly scratched his eyebrows, and he said coldly: "If you can kill, you can kill, if you can't kill, you will blame the people of the Second Highness and the Third Highness."
Someone wants to muddy the waters, so I'll add a fire to them. ” Looking up at the mosquito net above, the old eunuch Lu sighed leisurely: "Your Majesty's health is fine, in fact, there shouldn't be so much trouble."
These highnesses, I'm really anxious, but my father-in-law, I also have to do more things for my child, I can't let people bully him, little rabbit cub, I really don't know when I am father-in-law, you and the other people in charge are in charge, which one is not my child's nominal disciple hum, and what kind of seriousness is there in front of my father-in-law and me."
The cold sweat on the head of the eunuch was dripping down like this.
The old eunuch Lu looked funny, and scolded with a smile: "Little rabbit cub who has no interest, this scares you are my child's apprentice, naturally my father-in-law and my good grandson, I feel sorry for you It's too late, how can I deal with you Hmph, the recent matter, you look at it, pay attention to join forces with the brothers over there in Jinyiwei, and you are not afraid of losses."
After a pause, he said: "Ming'er told His Highness that my father-in-law and I are seriously ill, so I won't go to the imperial study to serve." ” The eunuch knelt down and kowtowed, secretly looked at the old eunuch Lu, and saw that he had closed his eyes, so he still asked a little hesitantly: "Then, father-in-law, you said, that father-in-law, should we get rid of him, let's kill him, in case the trouble fails, wouldn't it be troublesome for Lord Lu?"
