Zhu Xu came out of the Qianqing Palace, thinking about the reception of the North Korean mission as he walked.
The current subject country of the Ming Dynasty is only North Korea, and this loyal little brother came over, I am afraid that it is for the sake of Houjin.
However, he immediately thought of Mao Wenlong, who would be an emperor-like existence in North Korea in the future, but unfortunately he was killed by Yuan Chonghuan.
"Where's Lao Cao?"
Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back and suddenly asked.
Cao Huachun followed behind Zhu Xu and said, "Back to Your Highness, Commander Cao has just left the palace for something." ” Zhu Xu nodded and said, "You send someone to inform Honglu Temple, just say that this king will go to see it in a few days, and let them prepare to receive the Korean mission." ” "Yes, Your Highness."
Cao Huachun said.
As the two spoke, they walked towards Jinghuan Palace.
At this moment, in a restaurant box outside the palace, a young man knelt on the ground in front of Cao Wenzhao, looking excited.
"General Cao, please save my father no matter what!"
The boy said urgently.
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly helped him up and said, "Major General, please get up, let's sit down and say anything if you have anything to say." ” The young man was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he stood up and couldn't wait to say: "General Cao, you have the right to gelatinize your words, if you don't hand over 40,000 taels of silver, you will immediately execute your father." ” Cao Wenzhao helped him sit down on the stool, but his expression became solemn.
This young man's name is Xiong Guangyuan, he is a former Liaodong Jinglu, Cao Wenzhao has always followed him to fight before, if he hadn't been forced to leave by Zhu Xu earlier, I'm afraid there would be one more of him in prison.
Xiong Tingbi and Wang Huazhen did not agree, which eventually led to the defeat of Guangning.
That's why the two were arrested and sentenced to death last year.
However, there was a huge controversy in the court, coupled with Xiong Tingbi's traffic Wang Wenyan, bribing the inner servants, and having the inner servants to promote it together, so it has not been implemented.
However, now the court has changed greatly, Xiong Tingbi is a member of the Chu Party, and the Chu Party has been expelled from the court, although he is friendly with the Donglin Party, but it is already the limit to ensure that he does not die, and it is difficult to save him, not to mention, now it is the inner servant who did not get 40,000 taels of silver to kill him, and it is likely to be Wei Zhongxian's party.
Cao Wenzhao was silent, Wei Zhongxian is a person, even his master, His Royal Highness King Hui, is quite taboo against him, can he save people from Wei Zhongxian's hands?
Perhaps, it depends on the heart of His Highness.
Cao Wenzhao knew his own weight and thought about it.
After all, Cao Wenzhao has followed Xiong Tingbi for many years, and now that his son is begging for the door, he can't sit idly by, think for a while, and suddenly ask: "Who asked you to come to me?"
” Cao Wenzhao had to worry about it, although His Royal Highness King Hui had done a big thing, he was still a powerless little prince on the surface, how could he ask for him?
Xiong Guangyuan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My nephew doesn't know, he told me when he went to visit my father the day before yesterday. ” Cao Wenzhao didn't dare to be careless, and said, "Okay, let's go, follow me to see Jingluo." ” When Xiong Guangyuan heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Yes, my nephew will take you there." ” The two soon came to the prison of the Criminal Department, but they didn't stop much, stuffed some silver and went in.
Cao Wenzhao looked at the prisoner clothes, his hair was scattered, but he still couldn't hide the rugged Xiong Tingbi, and bowed down and said, "The last general, Cao Wenzhao, meet Lord Xiong." ” "Wen Zhao?"
Xiong Tingbi, who was sitting on the stone bed, saw it, walked over to look at him, and said in a rough voice: "Is it really you?"
” Cao Wenzhao also took a step closer, looked at Xiong Tingbi and said, "My lord, my lord, how are you doing?"
” Xiong Tingbi was not punished, straightened his head, and sighed: "I didn't expect that you would still be willing to come and see, there are countless old geners in Liaodong, and you are still the first." ” Xiong Tingbi was sentenced to death, and no one wanted to be involved with him, and who would come to see him at this time.
Cao Wenzhao also knew that he couldn't stay longer, looked around, and went straight to the point and whispered: "My lord, I will find a way to rescue you, you tell me first, who asked you to find me?"
” Xiong Tingbi was stunned, glanced around, and said in a low voice: "It's Sun Shangshu." ” "Sun Shangshu?"
Cao Wenzhao groaned, and soon said: "Is it Lord Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the military department?"
” Xiong Tingbi nodded.
Cao Wenzhao was relieved and said, "Okay, my lord, wait for a few days, and I'll go walk around and try it." ” Xiong Tingbi didn't want to die, and when he heard this, he said: "Okay, whether it succeeds or not, let people notify me." ” Cao Wenzhao agreed, and left in a hurry.
Xiong Tingbi is now a big whirlpool, and whoever gets close to him is unlucky.
Cao Wenzhao's identity is sensitive, pretending to be Xiong Guangyuan's follower, coming and going in a hurry.
"General Cao, I'll leave my father's affairs to you."
Walking far away, Xiong Guangyuan looked at Cao Wenzhao and bowed deeply.
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly helped him up, and said with a hesitant expression: "Major General, this matter, you have to let me take a look."
Cao Wenzhao didn't know the bottom in his heart, after all, this case is too big, the stakes are too heavy, it is good that people can stay until now, if you really want to rescue it, I am afraid it will be difficult.
Xiong Guangyuan's expression moved, and he still bowed: "No matter what the result is, my nephew has thanked the general here!"
” Cao Wenzhao helped him up, and explained again with a solemn gaze, and then cleaned up and went straight back to the palace.
He is not capable of doing such a thing, so it depends on the attitude of His Royal Highness King Hui.
Cao Wenzhao returned to the palace and came to Zhu Xu's study, still organizing his words as he walked.
Xiong Tingbi is a sinner no matter what he says, and he is most responsible for the defeat of Guangning, although the current situation in Liaodong is not caused by him, but he is responsible for a large part of the responsibility.
'Will Your Highness save your lordship?'
Cao Wenzhao beat a drum in his heart, Xiong Tingbi is his old boss, and he has a great favor for him, and he can't see death without help.

Cao Wenzhao entered the study and saw Zhu Xu sitting on a chair, reading a book very unvividly, so he stepped forward and called softly, "Your Highness." ” Zhu Xu raised his head and said, "What's wrong?"
” Cao Wenzhao thought about it for a long time and said uselessly, so he still said straightforwardly: "Your Highness, my subordinate has just gone to Lord Xiong. ” "Lord Bear?"
Zhu Xu was puzzled, there were still many people surnamed Xiong in the court, and he couldn't tell who it was at once.
When Cao Wenzhao saw it, he hurriedly said, "Lord Xiong Tingbi." ” Zhu Xu's face moved slightly, and the whole person slowly sat down.
Anyone who knows a little about the history of the Ming Dynasty knows this name, and Zhu Xu naturally knows it even better, and he also knows the relationship between Cao Wenzhao and him.
With a deep groan, Zhu Xu said, "You want to save him?"
” Cao Wenzhao knelt on the ground with a puff and said, "I hope that His Royal Highness will help, even if Lord Xiong is wrong, his merits outweigh his faults, and he really doesn't deserve to die!"
” Zhu Xu's face remained unchanged, thinking in his heart.
Xiong Tingbi's case is not in the case itself.
It's partisanship.
Xiong Tingbi himself is a Chu party, but he is very close to the Donglin party.
However, in order to renew Xiong Tingbi's life, the Donglin Party bought the internal servants to give him a suspended sentence.
When it comes to the inner servant, Wei Zhongxian has to be involved.
So, in the end, it was a matter between the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party.
