This Jinyiwei is obviously super strong but draws too much

Chapter 1110: Traitors are in power

After leaving the palace, all the officials from Jinyiwei came to Ying Wushang's home one after another. This was also their habit.

Although the yamen are closed for the New Year, for Jin Yiwei, as long as the commander is there, there is no distinction between public and private, and everything that needs to be discussed can be discussed.

"It's the New Year, I didn't want to annoy you, but it's really a bit tight over there," a member of the Qianhu household said with a sad face: "The northwest has been a little unstable in recent months. Several groups of horse thieves have appeared in a row, which has caused a lot of trouble. There are chaos in the world, and I am worried about the future if it is not dealt with as soon as possible."

Ying Wushang frowned and listened with a drunken expression on his face. After hearing these words, he waved his hand: "Some banditry is not a cause for concern, the local government can handle it."

The Qianhu was a little anxious, but Ying Wushang glared back. Another Qianhu on the side stopped him and signaled him to stop talking.

Seeing that the other party stopped talking nonsense, Ying Wushang nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's talk about something serious. Recently, the Queen has been missing things in the south of the Yangtze River - Zhang Qianhu, please take a trip."

Zhang Qianhu was the one who just mentioned the banditry in the northwest. Ying Wushang asked him to hesitate to speak, but finally he agreed: "I understand my humble position."

Ying Wushang explained emphatically: "The Queen likes sweetness, remember, this is a big deal."

Zhang Qianhu's face showed bitterness: "I understand my humble position, and I will never let the commander disappoint you."

"Okay, go ahead and come back early."

Ying Wushang sent that person away, and one after another the Jinyi guards also left. The last one left was Qianhu Cui Yixiao.

When there was no one else around, Ying Wushang's face still showed the absurdity that was caused by alcohol and sex, but instead he was just as calm and ruthless as a wolf.

"Old Cui, you are keeping an eye on this matter in the northwest in private. I always feel that something is wrong. Miss A Lan has only been away for a short time and it has become such a mess. I'm afraid it was premeditated." Ying Wushang said solemnly.

"I know." Cui Yixiao nodded.

Ying Wushang added: "One more thing, the Chen family has been a bit dishonest recently, please find an opportunity to 'remind' them."

Cui Yixiao said: "Do you want to tell Miss Chen?"

"No need, the people from the Chen family have all jumped up to the empress. If you say that this eldest lady has not heard anything, I don't believe it," Ying Wushang sneered and said, "I guess she also has some temptations. thoughts.”

Six years ago, the Chen family's three-point strength was greatly damaged. Everyone was not optimistic about Chen Yin, the eldest daughter of the direct line of the Chen family. Later, Chen Heguang died, and she completely took control of the direct line of the Chen family. Over the years, she successfully suppressed the branch family and once again let Chen The family becomes a whole.

From this aspect, Chen Yin, the leader, is undoubtedly successful. She is able to reintegrate the Chen family when the former wolf, the rear tiger, and the Jin Yiwei are waiting for an opportunity to disrupt the situation. She is much better than her brother.

But unexpectedly, Jin Yiwei relaxed his attitude towards her. Chen Yin immediately wanted to reach into the palace, which undoubtedly touched Jin Yiwei's bottom line.

You must know that the reason why today's Jinyiwei can still maintain its original glory is all because of the emperor's favor and trust. In a sense, this generation of Jinyiwei should be regarded as the emperor's most trusted eagle dog. After all, the emperor himself is a Jinyiwei.

In terms of understanding the emperor, no one knows the emperor better than Jin Yiwei. Unless there is a big change in the future, the sons and daughters of the queen will be the masters that Jin Yiwei will serve in the future, which naturally makes them very concerned.

"I understand." Cui Yixiao took note of it seriously and left.

After finishing all the matters, Ying Wushang finally took a breath for a while. He sat down, and the maid outside came in to serve tea, and then a gentle-looking woman came in.

This was the one who interrupted Mrs. Chen's speech in Fengqi Palace. When Ying Wushang saw her, he put a smile on his face: "Madam is here."

Ying Wushang got married a year after the new emperor ascended the throne. He married a girl from the Wu family. He had already been favored by Wu Qiming, so this marriage could be said to be a closer marriage. This girl from the Wu family, whose maiden name is Yaoyao, is only twenty years old. In terms of her family background, she was considered a second wife when she married Ying Wushang, but the relationship between the couple is very good.

"Thank you for your hard work, husband," Wu Yaoyao said with a smile. She took the tea from the maid and served it to Ying Wushang, jokingly saying: "Husband's reputation is not as good as it used to be. Recently, several ladies have been making fun of me, secretly or openly. I’m pregnant.”

Although what she said was bad, there was no ridicule in Wu Yaoyao's eyes. She knew that this was Ying Wushang's way of becoming an official, even though she was the commander of the Jin Yiwei - no, it should be said that it was precisely because of staying in this position. , so he had to create some "weaknesses" for himself.

Even if the emperor knew him well, this was the rule of the game. If he acted impeccably, those ministers would not trust him.

Therefore, after receiving the advice from the master, Ying Wushang often showed his desire for power and status in front of outsiders. He even became friends with Cao Yuan of Dongchang, often inquired about the news in the palace, and followed the example of others. , relying on catering to the empress's preferences to please the emperor in disguise.

"Madam, please stop teasing me," Ying Wushang took a sip of tea and smiled helplessly, then asked, "By the way, did anything happen at the palace banquet today?"

Wu Yaoyao knew what the other party was going to ask, so she told her what Chen had done at the banquet. After hearing this, Ying Wushang first sneered, and then said to her appreciatively: "Madam, you did the right thing."

The smile in Wu Yaoyao's eyes deepened, and she added: "By the way, my concubine who needs to move around after the new year has already drawn up a list. Please remember to take a look at it when your husband is free. There is one more thing -"

Wu Yaoyao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I heard that Master Yan intends to retire. There are rumors that Master Cui will take over the post of governor. I wonder if this news is...?"

Ying Wushang did not hide his wife, he said directly: "Master Yan is already old, and it is not appropriate to continue fighting and killing. After the year, he will be transferred to the Ministry of War, and Old Cui will come to the Fusi area in Beizhen." received."

Wu Yaoyao nodded: "In that case, the gift for the Cui family should be a little more."

Ying Wushang said: "It's fine as long as Madam makes the decision. In previous years, you were the one to do it. I'm very relieved."

"Okay." Wu Yaoyao agreed with a smile.

Ying Wushang casually looked at the list in his hand and couldn't help but said "Hey": "Why is it twenty-nine? I remember it's not twenty-eight?"

Wu Yaoyao blinked at Ying Wushang: "Husband, have you forgotten? You were busy years ago, and Mr. Zhu has not been there yet."

"Master Zhu? Which Zhu?" Ying Wushang was stunned: "My lord, my old friend? He hasn't retired yet?"

In fact, what Ying Wushang subconsciously wanted to ask was whether Lord Zhu was still alive, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that it was inappropriate to ask this question, so he immediately changed the question.

In his memory, when he joined the Imperial Guard, Zhu Tongzhi looked like an old fool who was about to die. Now after so many years, the old man seems to have not changed at all. He seems to be decrepit, but in fact, Yan Feng, who is two generations younger than him, is about to retire. Well, this old man is still guarding the Jinyiwei's archives.

Wu Yaoyao smiled knowingly: "Old Tongzhi is in good health, and my uncle will go to play chess with him in two days. Master Tongzhi has worked hard for Jin Yiwei all his life. My husband must not forget him."

Wu Yaoyao had something to say, and Ying Wushang immediately understood: "Madam reminds me that Lord Tongzhi is an old man from Jinyiwei. If I don't go, I might break the hearts of my brothers."

Wu Yaoyao finished her order. She saw that the main business was finished, and then looked at the getting late outside. She hesitated for a moment and then said softly: "Husband, I asked the kitchen to prepare a few dishes of your choice today."

Ying Wushang shook his head and said, "I have a meeting with some friends tonight. Madam, you don't have to wait for me to have dinner. I won't be back until later. Madam, please go to bed first."

Wu Yaoyao lowered her head and bit her lip gently, but there was still an understanding smile on her face: "I understand."
