The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 108 The Mausoleum of King Yu (please subscribe for monthly ticket)
Jin Yiwei has always arranged a large number of people to 'protect' Zhu Ying.

The more Zhu Ying's details are found out, the more people Jin Yiwei will arrange.

From no more than three or five people at the beginning, to three or 50 people later.

Now the entire Jinyiwei department, Zhu Ying alone, has arranged for five hundred households and a total of 500 people to 'protect'.

At the same time, in order not to arouse Zhu Ying's dislike, these plainclothes and brocade guards were mainly distributed regularly and communicated secretly.

For example, two or three rooms away from Zhuying's house, Jin Yiwei lived on the left and right.

In the front and back streets of Zhuying's courtyard, the guards in plain clothes and brocade clothes came out of the stall before dawn, guarding quietly.

At night, the watchman in disguise likes wandering around the yard around Zhu Ying the most.

Needless to say about the gates of each city, the most ruthless thing is that among the new batch of young servants recruited by the teahouse, they are basically arranged by Jin Yiwei.

The shopkeeper of the teahouse is still a little confused, how come the errand workers are so easy to recruit recently.

When Zhu Ying was chatting with Zhu Gaochi on the Louchuan, there were at least seven or eight small boats on the river not far from the Louchuan, all of whom were from Jinyiwei.

These 500 people are only on the surface.

As the base camp of Jinyiwei, the capital is the most secret source of information, and the secrets are more dense.

Zhu Ying had already been transferred to the highest level.

Of course, this is not surveillance, but mainly protection, and observing Zhu Ying's movements by the way.

Zhou Ji's rush to the boat was too fast, and Zhu Ying's move was also very fast. Before Jin Yiwei could move out, it was over.

Zhu Ying's matter is over, and Zhou Ji's matter has just begun.

Jin Yiwei appeared, what else could Zhou Ji do.

He had no choice but to obediently follow him to the Jinyiwei prison.

None of the geishas and boatmen on board were left behind.

When Zhou Ji was imprisoned, he suddenly found that the people in the cell next to him seemed a little familiar.

The man turned his head to look, saw Zhou Ji, and said bitterly: "Zhou Ji, Zhou Ji, I was really hurt by you."

Who else could this person be? Chang Sen who had left directly before.

They were all on the same boat, even if Jin Yiwei knew Chang Sen's identity, it was impossible for him to let him go.

Including the scholar who was also thinking of clinging to the relationship, he also stayed honestly in the cell next door.

At this point, all the people on board were placed in the prison in an orderly manner.

In the Jinyiwei yamen.

Song Zhong got dressed and came over from the official residence behind.

Officials' residences generally have offices in the front and residences in the back.

The same is true for Jiang Yu.

Opposite Jin Yiwei's yamen, the same is true for the five ministers except the Ministry of Punishment.

"It really doesn't make people sleep well." Song Zhong, who was disturbed, was obviously not in a good mood.

As soon as he lay down, he was called up.

However, after hearing the report from his subordinates, Song Zhong lost all sleepiness and shouted angrily:
"It's so daring, Young Master Zhu is also something they can do? Good guy, there is the emperor's grandson on board, the daughter of King Zhongshan. What are you doing? Rebellion!"

While looking at the dossier, Song Zhong scolded.

I also began to have a general understanding of the ins and outs of the matter.

The principal offender was the only son of Jiang Xiahou, and the accessory was the third son of King Kaiping.

"Good guy."

After closing the file, Song Zhong couldn't help sighing again.

Any one of these involved people can be regarded as a nobleman at the top of the Ming Dynasty, so many people were involved all at once.

"Have you been interrogated? What is the specific situation?" Song Zhong asked his subordinate, Jin Yiwei.

"My lord, the interrogation of the brothers has already begun, and news should come in a short time." Jin Yiwei said hastily.

With so many important figures involved, the pressure on Jin Yiwei is also great.

Song Zhong nodded, and continued to ask: "Master Commander, is there any notice?"

"I haven't disturbed the commanding officer for the time being so that your excellency can go to bed." Jin Yiwei, his subordinate, replied.

Although the people involved in this matter have great backgrounds, it is said that only a few guards were injured so far.

When one of the guards was brought in, he was seriously injured and had already been treated by a doctor.

"Immediately notify the commanding envoy. Remember, if there is anything related to Zhu Ying in the future, please notify the commanding envoy first."

"Honestly obey orders."

Although Jiang Yu is the commander of Jinyiwei, he must always guard Zhu Yuanzhang's side.

As for Song Zhong, the two acquaintances of Jin Yiwei and the three ministers are almost responsible for the safety of the palace.

The original duties of Jinyiwei were the emperor's bodyguards and honor guards, so they were called Jinyi.

Another pacifier with comparable status to Song Zhong is in charge of the internal law and discipline of Jin Yiwei.

In other words, in fact, Jin Yiwei has the greatest actual power externally, and that is Song Zhong himself.

Song Zhongben is Jiang Yu's confidant, otherwise he would not be able to achieve this position.

Not long after, Jiang Yu, who was wearing a brocade cloak, strode over.

"Master Commander." Song Zhong and several Jin Yiwei around clasped their fists and luggage.

Song Zhong immediately handed over the dossier to Jiang Yu for inspection.

Before Jiang Yu finished watching, Jin Yiwei, who was interrogating, had already arrived.

On the main seat in the main room, Jiang Yu, who was holding the file, said: "Say."

Jin Yiwei, who was in charge of the interrogation, immediately explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

Those geisha boatmen, in the Jinyiwei prison, have long been frightened to death, and there is no punishment, and they have confessed everything without revealing a word.

Jin Yiwei, who was interrogating, compared the confessions and found that the confessions of several people were similar, so he came directly to report.

"I really don't care about Jin Yiwei and me. The capital is also a place where Zhou Ji can run wild?"

"It's really ridiculous to think that he can do anything wrong with the name of his father Jiang Xiahou."

Jiang Yu said coldly, as His Majesty's personal bodyguard, Jiang Yu understood better than anyone else.

After the civil servants cleaned up, His Majesty ordered to collect all the information related to Huaixi noble generals, the meaning of which is very obvious.

If it weren't for the appearance of His Highness the eldest grandson, Jiang Yu could have a premonition that the entire Huaixi Xungui Group would probably be smashed to pieces by His Majesty.

Even at this time, if you dare to jump out, you are really committing suicide.

"My lord, this Zhou Ji is the only son of Jiang Xiahou. At Jiang Xiahou's age, there is only such a son who inherits the incense. If we do too much, I'm afraid."

Song Zhong said hesitantly.

Although there were some collisions, it did not cause too much trouble.Some punishments cannot be avoided, but Jin Yiwei can't be too harsh without His Majesty's decree.

This is a bit of a dilemma.

Jiang Yu nodded when he heard the words, and Jiang Xiahou was involved, this matter is not easy to explain.

The current Jiang Xiahou, as the famous founder of the country, now manages Fujian and holds a heavy army.

He is such a precious son.

Jiang Yu remembered that not long ago, when Zhou Ji first arrived in the capital, Zhou Dexing sent me a memorial, complaining about his son's ignorance, and wanted to ask His Majesty to help find a marriage.

His Majesty also told Jiang Yu about this matter at that time, asking him to check if there are any good girls who are well-matched and ready to marry.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu's eyes flashed with thought, and then he got up and said: "I will go to the palace to meet His Majesty first, and I will wait for your opinion, and I will make a decision after His Majesty's decree."

After Jiang Yu finished explaining, he went directly to the palace.

As the commander of Jinyiwei, he certainly has the right to directly enter the palace.

In front of Qianqing Palace, the eunuch was invited to report.

It's about ten o'clock at night now.

At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang is usually still reviewing memorials in the study of the palace.

"Your Majesty, Jiang Yu is asking to see you." Liu He reported in a low voice.

"Xuan." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

When Jiang Yu came over at this point, he obviously had something important to report.

"Your Majesty, at Xushi tonight, His Highness Changsun, His Highness Huangsun Gaochi, and Xu Miaojin, the daughter of King Zhongshan, are playing together on the Qinhuai River."

"Jiang Xiahou's son Zhou Ji, greedy for Xu Miaojin's beauty, ordered his guards to attack the building. Fortunately, His Royal Highness Changsun took action, and he was safe and sound."

"Now, Zhou Ji, the son of Jiang Xiahou, and Chang Sen, the third son of King Kaiping who traveled with him, and the geisha and boatman, have all been arrested and imprisoned. Your Majesty, please judge."

Jiang Yu quickly reported the general ins and outs, and at the same time handed over the confession file obtained from Jin Yiwei's interrogation to His Majesty.

Zhu Yuanzhang took the dossier and shouted coldly: "You are so courageous, even our eldest grandson dared to attack. What are you trying to do? Are you intending to rebel?"

"Chang Sen, a bastard, has the same virtue as his big brother. He doesn't learn from the good ones, but learns from the bad ones. In vain, we gave them three bastards names."

Zhu Yuanzhang scolded him.

Back then, Chang Yuchun was unwilling to die of old age and died in the field, so he practiced martial arts with others since he was a child.In character, bold and reckless.

When Chang Yuchun first defected to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang attached great importance to him.

The biggest reason why Xu Da and Chang Yuchun can become famous generals of a generation is because they have practiced martial arts since childhood.

Such a fierce general has great appeal in the army. With the general in the lead, the soldiers are full of courage.

Perhaps it was because he was too brave, suffered frequent hidden injuries on his body, and died suddenly under the sudden explosion.

Both of them were illiterate, but Xu Da and Chang Yuchun were different.

After Xu Da had the conditions, he began to understand the importance of learning. During the war, he would also study military art.

For the Four Books and Five Classics, like Zhu Yuanzhang, he also read through.

Even before his death, he left behind several poems.

And Chang Yuchun is reckless to the end, a reckless man who looks like a man, fierce and unparalleled but lacks strategy.

So after giving birth to a son, Zhu Yuanzhang was asked to help name him.

Zhu Yuanzhang checked the files carefully, and according to his mind, all those who bumped into the grandson should be executed without leaving any one behind.

However, in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, Chang Yuchun obviously had a good status.

Chang Yuchun was honest, he obeyed Zhu Yuanzhang's words, and he fought so bravely. Chang Yuchun was the first to rush up and fight down the current Beiping and the former Yuan Dadu.

So even if the grandson was involved, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to read the details of the dossier before considering making a decision.

Chang Sen was lucky.

At the beginning of Zhou Ji, he once said two words of dissuasion.

Jin Yiwei's interrogation is extremely strict, and all experiences, including who said that sentence, will be recorded in detail.

The same is true, after Zhu Yuanzhang read it, he had a calculation in his heart.

Putting down the dossier, Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment, and said directly: "Take Zhou Ji's son to the prison for execution in secret."

"In addition, pass on our decree to call Jiang Xiahou Zhou Dexing to Beijing immediately without delay."

When Jiang Yu heard the words, he replied, "I obey the order."

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Yu said worriedly: "Zhou Ji is the only son of Jiang Xiahou. If he finds out that his son is dead after entering Beijing and the incense is cut off, I'm afraid he will feel dissatisfied."

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and said, "It's the father's fault whether he raises him or not. His son, even our eldest grandson, dares to bump into him. There is nothing he can't do."

"We don't want to see him anymore. When Jiang Xiahou enters the capital, he will be captured and killed on the spot."

After speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "We can't let his son go. The old man has no thoughts. Naturally, it is difficult to accept at this age. Let us give him a ride, so he can have a good time."

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhou Dexing grew up together, because they injured their kidneys in the early years of the war, and they have never had any children.

He has seen countless doctors, including the imperial physicians of the imperial hospital.

After recuperating for a long time, he managed to give birth to a son like Zhou Ji.

That precious feeling was no less than Zhu Yuanzhang's feelings for his grandson at that time.

Just like that, Zhu Yuanzhang knew even more in his heart that Zhou Dexing, who had lost his son, would definitely go crazy, and he might do something outrageous.

Zhou Dexing is a few years older than Zhu Yuanzhang, and he has a chronic illness. It seems impossible to have any more children.

Simply give death directly, so as not to cause trouble in vain.

"The minister obeys the order."

With a shudder in his heart, Jiang Yu replied.

Zhou Ji, who is currently in the prison, after the initial fear, thought of the relationship between his father and His Majesty, and it didn't take long for him to gradually calm down.

Of course he never thought that not only would he die, but even his father would be punished for it.

at the same time.

Xiaoling Mausoleum in Zhongshan, where the tomb of King Yu is located.

Work is done here day and night, and excavations are carried out in reverse shifts.

Even though it is already midnight, there are still a lot of torches standing everywhere, and the peasants are digging down with hoes.

It can already be seen that the top of the entire mausoleum has been dug down for nearly ten meters.

According to calculations, it will be a few meters away from where the tomb of King Yu was earlier.

If you're lucky, it won't take long, even tomorrow, to dig up King Yu's coffin.

"The guards of Xiaoling are guarding too tightly, we can't move at all."

"It's hard. Yesterday, another five hundred elite soldiers were added to supervise at all times, and the officials of the Qin Tianjian were constantly calculating. Yesterday San'er dug a few more times and was directly reprimanded."

"It's not good during the day, it's too clear, and you can be spotted with a little movement, but it can only be done late at night."

"I can't wait any longer. We have already arrived at the position given by the master. Tell the brothers. When the cock crows, I will wait for an opportunity to start."

"Okay, I'll inform the brothers."

In the deep pit, after two mature men exchanged words, one of them began to slowly move to the other side.

They were the subordinates arranged by Zhu Di, and they tried their best to dig the tomb until it collapsed.

Just when they were about to gather the crowd secretly and arrange an action, a shout suddenly sounded.

"I dug it, I dug it, I dug it to the mausoleum."

When the two heard the words, they looked at each other, said badly in secret, and looked over there through the confusion.

Sure enough, the tiles above the mausoleum have been revealed.
