Red House Shoufu

Chapter 310 Conspiracy

The night of wind and rain in the capital finally stabilized temporarily at dawn. The emperor successively dealt with many unfavorable civil and military officials in Fengtian Temple, including many generals of Shuntian Mansion, Wucheng Bingmasi, and Jingying Twelve Guards.

The details of last night have already been reported before the court, and many officials were stabbed to death, including the Nine Frontier generals who came to Beijing to report their duties in the New Year, and the chief envoys and inspectors of Liaodong, Shanxi, Shaanxi and other places. .

When the imperial court dissipated, the servant reported to Lin Shu, who had been rescuing him all night, finally woke up.The emperor turned around and went to the side hall. The soup in the hall smelled pungent. Looking from the outside, Daiyu was sitting by the bed feeding Lin Shu the medicine.

"His Majesty Saint Ann!"

"how is the situation?"

The imperial doctor replied: "Xueshi Lin's broken arm has been reattached, and the arrow in his abdomen has been removed. The trauma is not serious. But when he fell off the horse before, he fell hard and injured his brain. I'm afraid there may be blood in it. The minister prescribed medicine for dredging stasis, supplemented by acupuncture, at least it will take some time to recuperate."

The imperial doctor said cautiously, and he finally added: "This brain injury is very difficult to treat. The doctors of the past dynasties can only use medicines to support it. They mainly focus on self-cultivation. Within a month, it is best for Xueshi Lin to rest. Can't be too tired to think..."

The emperor nodded, and ordered the imperial doctor to prepare medicinal materials and other things.Nanny Zhang had already seen the figure of the emperor, so she reminded Daiyu in a low voice.

Daiyu fed the last spoonful of medicine to Lin Shu, got up and was about to salute the emperor, but saw that the emperor had strode in and waved to stop him.

"I'm going to come and see Lin Qing...Rong Jia is going to rest for a while, I have something to talk to Lin Qing."

Daiyu hesitated for a moment, Lin Shu said in a weak voice: "Yu'er go to rest for a while, I have something to report to Your Majesty alone."

"Lin Qing, don't get up now." Seeing that Lin Shu was about to get up, the emperor quickly stepped forward and held him down.

After Daiyu left, Lin Shu smiled bitterly: "I was careless last night, I didn't expect that someone would value this little imperial court so much."

"The nine frontier generals who came to Beijing to report on their duties, the chief envoys of Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Liaodong, and the inspectors from various places were all assassinated. A total of 11 people died in the assassination. Lin Qing was the only one in Beijing who was almost assassinated. official."

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Xia Shouzhong reminded him in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this old servant feels that if Uncle Jia hadn't met him by chance, Duke Qian..."

"I also find it strange that Da Companion said that."

"Your Majesty, what happened last night should have something to do with the Oirats. Whether it's Lord Qian or the ministers, including the generals from the nine frontiers, the chief envoys and inspectors of the three places, they are all related to the frontier affairs."

Qian Qianli and himself were in charge of the peace talks between the four countries, and planned to arrange Oara and Luocha Kingdom together, which also contributed to the surrender of Tatars and ruined Oara's plan to attack Chu.

Judging from the identities of the people who were assassinated today, they are all related to side affairs, and it is basically certain that the Oirats did it.

The only problem now is where did the Oirats get so many people, and who is secretly providing support.To be able to hide so many people in the capital, and to be able to plan so well, the opportunity to almost wipe out the chief generals of the nine sides and the chief officials of the three places is too unimaginable.

The emperor said: "I have asked the embroidery guards to investigate. That Wang Wei was assassinated last night and died at home. Wang Ziteng just asked me for leave and went back to deal with the funeral. The clue to this matter was broken on Wang Wei." .”

"Does the assassin have any clues? I think it's impossible for a small member of the military department, Wailang, to be able to do this. With so many people making trouble almost at the same time, and with such a thorough plan, it seems to me that Wang Ziteng is the most suspicious. "

Perhaps it was because Lin Shu had a prejudice against Wang Ziteng from the bottom of his heart. Ever since the scribes in the Sifang Pavilion mentioned that some Wang family members might have contact with the Oala envoys, he began to suspect Wang Ziteng.

"Don't worry about this matter for the time being, go back and have a good rest. I will send someone to secretly investigate Wang Ziteng's matter. This old fox has too much involvement behind it, and there is no real evidence. It will be very troublesome to deal with."

Seeing Lin Shu's pale face and weak spirit, the emperor told him to take a good rest.After Daiyu was invited by Xia Shouzhong, the emperor comforted him: "I asked the imperial doctor to prepare the medicinal materials, and let him go with the car, and return to the Imperial Hospital when Lin Qing is better."

Dai Yu thanked her, and the emperor waved his hand and said: "Go back and have a good rest. If you encounter any difficulties, let me report to you. I have everything. Don't worry too much."

……

Wang Ziteng hurried home, changed his clothes and left through the secret passage.The exit of the secret road is in an ordinary house in the next door, and there are people waiting at the exit as soon as you come out.

"Patriarch, the assassination of Lin Shu was done by an idiot like Liao Yufeng, who failed once and sent someone to do it a second time overnight."

"Sure enough, he is extremely stupid, I wish that the embroidered clothes guard's eyes would focus on him!"

Wang Ziteng wiped off the dirt on his body, and walked into a room. There were already three or four people sitting in it, and the faithful Wang Gao Yongyi sat impressively on the main seat.

"Your Highness, why are you here in person?"

Wang Ziteng bowed down and persuaded, "Nowadays the capital is full of embroidered guards, how can your Highness risk leaving the mansion?"

"It's okay, before I leave the mansion, I asked someone to pretend to be sitting in the study and copying books. The secret road leads directly to this place, and no one will find out."

Gao Yongyi signaled Wang Ziteng to sit down, and then said: "This is a good confinement. It just gave me a chance. Embroidered clothes guards think that I am obediently copying "Chu Law Shuyi" in the mansion!"

Several people in the room patted Gao Yongyi's ass, and then talked about business.Gao Yongyi asked: "When will the soldiers from the Jiangnan side be transported?"

"Returning to Your Highness, the sea ships mobilized from each family have already set off, and they can send [-] light armors and [-] swords and guns to Liaodong in a month at most. However, it is difficult to raise food and grass, and it will take some time. The government has sent people to South Vietnam to buy it. The grain is estimated to have arrived in South Vietnam, and it will be sent to Liaodong within two months."

Wang Ziteng frowned and asked the person who reported it: "Director Zhen, how much money did President Zhen raise? Isn't it cheaper to buy food from Jiangnan?"

"Back to the prince, the clan brother has raised more than [-] million taels of silver. Last year, the grain harvest in Jiangnan was disturbed by Japanese pirates. If you buy it in Jiangnan, it will be easy to be noticed. On the contrary, Nanyue has been prosperous year after year, and the sea transportation is also fast."

The manager of Zhen, Zhen Yingqian, is a branch of the Zhen family in Jinling, and he is a cousin of the head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yingjia.

Sitting beside him were three loyal aides and members of the Zhen family, who came here today for a major event that had been planned for many years.

After listening to Zhen Yingqian's report, Gao Yongyi turned to look at Wang Ziteng.He doesn't understand military affairs, and other people sitting in the room don't know as much about military affairs as Prince Teng.

Wang Ziteng shook his head, and said to Gao Yongyi: "There is too little time, and Wala's side will be locked up in one month at most and go south. Two months is enough for the court to deal with it calmly."

"Then let Wala wait a little longer. At worst, the king will give them the river loop in the future. Haven't they been greedy for a long time?"

Gao Yongyi finished speaking nonchalantly, but Wang Ziteng stood up and bowed down very solemnly: "It's fine if it's in the Western Regions, the Hetao is the key point for defending the grassland. If the Hetao is lost, the Central Plains will always be under the iron hoof of Oara. The Western Regions Take it back, if Hetao is lost, it is like losing Yanyun in the previous Song Dynasty, Your Highness must not say such words again."

Wang Ziteng's voice became more and more serious, especially in the end, Gao Yongyi was vaguely responsible, which made Gao Yongyi feel embarrassed.

Gao Yongyi let Wang Ziteng bend over, but did not let him stand up.In the end, it was Zhen Yingqian's persuasion, which eased the atmosphere in the room.

"The matter of grain and grass needs to be paid close attention. First try to buy some grain from Shandong and send it to Liaodong. It can handle it for a while. Then contact Gao Li. He has taken advantage of us with water, and it is time to contribute."

Wang Ziteng passed Gao Yongyi, and directly ordered: "Tell Shui Rong, let him find a way to stir up Gao Li's ambitions, and use the land in the southeast of Changbai Mountain in exchange for Gao Li to attract the attention of the Liaodong Frontier Army. Delay must also hold the Liaodong Frontier Army Three months."

……

After finishing the important matter, Wang Ziteng left from the secret path again.As soon as he returned to the mansion, he called his confidant, the dead man, and after whispering a few words, the dead man left the Wang's house quietly, circled around the capital several times, disguised himself as a vegetable vendor delivering vegetables, and pushed the cart away Jiqingfang.

Lin Jiu hung far behind the dead man of the Wang family, and followed his figure unhurriedly until the gate of Jiqingfang was in sight. Lin Jiu flew over the wall of the square under the cover of a big tree.

"Sure enough, it's the Liao family!"

Liao Yufeng is now being watched by the embroidered guards, and Lin Jiu is inconvenient to reveal his identity, so he can only watch from a distance as the dead man walks into the back door of Liao's house by disguising himself as a delivery of food.

When the dead man of the Wang family reappeared, Lin Jiu jumped into the courtyard of the Liao family by taking advantage of the chance that the embroidered guard was attracted by him.

The layout of the Liao family was clearly investigated by Lin Jiu long ago. After a few jumps, he came outside Liao Yufeng's room.Lin Jiu hid by the window, poked through the window paper and looked in, Liao Yufeng was holding a letter in a daze.

At this time, the butler of the Liao family came in and said, "Master, Mrs. Tai told me to come over. She has invited my uncle and grandpa, and she will be here soon."

Liao Yinshi's father, Yin Shijiu, was an old man in the army. Although he had not been involved in the government for many years, he still had the title of Marquis of Yingwu, and he still had a great influence in the army.

Inviting him to come this time, Liao Yinshi intends to use her natal family's strength to see if she can find a way out for Liao Yufeng.

But she didn't know that Liao Yufeng had hooked up with Wang Ziteng, and last night he did something big enough to ransack his family.

Liao Yufeng held back his impatience, put away the letter that Wang Ziteng had just sent, got up and followed the housekeeper to the back hall.Lin Jiu pushed open the window and turned in.

He took out the letter lightly, took shorthand and put it back.Then clean up the traces left by yourself and return from the original road.

After Lin Jiu left, a person jumped down from a big tree not far away, smiled at the direction Lin Jiu left, and then went in through the window just like Lin Jiu just did, took out the letter, put it in the shorthand Go back, clear the traces, turn over and leave.

　Wow, wow, I wrote 26 words in a hurry, and I am here first, and I still owe 6000 chapters. Tomorrow and weekend, I will wake up and code words, guarantee 8000 and fight for [-]!
