Jingming

Chapter 226 Counselors go to various places to govern the world?

Guo Zan came straight to great merit.

The soldiers below didn't know Gao Kewei, but he did.

After rushing to Majiadu, he first thanked Chen Yin's [-]th generation ancestors in his heart, and then thanked His Majesty for the Jinyiwei walk in Sichuan.

"Where are people?" He shouted as soon as he broke into the foot shop that had been requisitioned at the ferry.

Still holding the whip in his hand, the little captain had already greeted him after he got off his horse: "Tie it in the guest room, uncle!"

"You belong to the right guard? What's your name?" Guo Zan was very excited.

"Fan Dun, a low-ranking officer, is the flag of the right guard."

"Well done! If it's the right one, I'll give you credit when I return to Chengdu!"

Fan Dun smiled happily, but still said: "The main credit goes to Brother Jin Yiwei."

"How about the others?"

"Being dragged by Gao Kewei in the river, he choked on a few sips of water, and he was tired. The doctor is looking after him." Fan Dun added, "The name is Wei Tan, and he asked his uncle to come back and intercede. It is advisable to come and tell the humble staff that the team is most likely Gao Kewei. Four of them went out of the city together to follow Gao Kewei, Gao Kewei has been fleeing separately on the way, and there are substitutes on at least two roads, I don’t know if this is true or not.”

Only then did Guo Zan realize that he might not have captured the rightful owner, and immediately became serious when he heard the words: "There is nothing wrong with it! Seeing that we are hunting for you, why don't you warn him? You can rest assured that I will report to the Marquis and His Majesty." Love, I will visit him again later.”

While talking, the two had already arrived at the guest room of the foot shop.

The clothes on Gao Kewei's body were not completely dry, he was tied to the window in the room, and his body was wrapped in a thin quilt, where he was shivering wet and dry.

Guo Zan took a closer look at his face, and laughed out loud after seeing the change in his eyes: "Yo! Gao Jietai, why did you shave your beard like this after a few days of not seeing you? Your parents are responsible for your body, hair and skin. You are disloyal and unfilial!"

He arranged for someone to tell Wei Tan that Fan Dun who was following Guo Zan was overjoyed: "Uncle, did you catch the wrong person?"

"That's right!" After saying that, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to wipe Gao Kewei's face twice more, "The fake thong ordered by this disguiser is also not good, hahahaha!"

After soaking in water, Guo Zan wiped away the ink stains that had soaked into the skin.

"We can't let him catch a cold and die of illness. Quickly take off his wet clothes, wipe his body and put on dry clothes, then find a carriage, and take him back to Chengdu Mansion!"

"No! No, no, no, no, Cheng Amber, His Majesty wants to cut down the feudal clan and kill a group of relatives, don't you really think about yourself?"

Guo Zan didn't care about this, he lifted the thin quilt with his hands, and pulled out a knife to cut his clothes: "Still here to confuse me? You really have the guts of a bear! What happened to Zhang Wei must have something to do with you. I was so frightened that I hurriedly ran away! I have captured you now, and your future is boundless!"

After speaking, he smiled and tore off the torn clothes on Gao Kewei's body, tsk-tsk: "Mr. Gao En, you are so white!"

Inspector Tangtang was quickly stripped naked by him, only some pieces of cloth remained where he was bound by the rope.

Gao Kewei's face was flushed, and his heart was full of fear.

He hissed, "This is no joke! Cheng Amber, you don't understand..."

"I don't need to understand! You should be honest and dress yourself so as not to die of illness, or suffer some hardships and let Lao Tzu's soldiers help you get dressed?"

Seeing that Gao Kewei didn't dare to give himself a good time at this moment, Guo Zan knew that he was afraid of death.

It's good to be afraid of death, it can save you some trouble.

On the one hand, he is so courageous, and on the other hand, he is afraid of death. It is really strange for people.

Just like that, Gao Kewei was pinned down by several soldiers, and then he was put on two clothes casually. The process was unsightly, and he was ridiculed and ridiculed by Guo Zan.

At this moment, another announcement came from outside: "Uncle, there is a person who claims to be Captain Jinyi and wants to see that Captain Wei."

"Oh?"

Guo Zan heard the words and went out. After seeing the person, he saw that the person took out a waist card to prove his identity.

"The waist card is not trustworthy." Guo Zan looked at him deeply, "I just captured the traitor, and you came here. How do I know if your identity is true or not? What is your purpose?"

As soon as these words came out, Fan Dun waved his hand immediately, and led several people to surround him.

The man was true, and replied calmly: "The humble official came here alone. Wei Tan saw me and knew the truth."

Guo Zan smiled and waved his hands: "I heard that Brother Wei told Fan Dun his name and surname later. If you are an associate of the traitor, you shouldn't know his name. Then why are you here?"

The people surrounding him dispersed again.

"According to Master Xing's order, I searched for it all the way. I heard that Brother Wei chased him in the river for two days and one night. Only then did he realize that he was one of his own, and he had already notified Uncle."

"...Inform me? That's it, you go with me." Guo Zan turned around and ordered, "Feed him some porridge, don't starve to death, and let the doctor come and see."

After finishing speaking, he took this person to the side of Weitan: "Is there a new order from Jinyiwei to go? But there is another order from Jingli?"

"...Uncle forgive me, I can't say the detailed order." The man replied, "But this order was originally related to the uncle's pursuit of Gao Kewei, so there is no need to pass it on now. Is it the right master that the uncle captured? "

"It's the real master." Guo Zan had already captured Gao Kewei, so he didn't ask any more questions, but said, "Then Wei Tan has been chasing him for two days and one night, that means you didn't know what happened at the beginning?"

"Exactly, that's just a normal response."

Guo Zan could not help but look at him.

Presumably Xue Lun and himself were also watched by Jin Yiwei on weekdays.

When he arrived at Wei Tan's room, he was already asleep.

The visitor thought for a while and said: "Uncle is eager to return to his life, so let's stay here and wait for him to wake up."

Guo Zan nodded: "Then I'll keep some people here, in case the rebels and their accomplices are here to support them, and don't let them seek revenge."

This is not only to guard against others, but also to guard against yourself in front of you.

The person from Jin Yiwei didn't take it seriously, but said: "Uncle is considerate, and I am grateful for my humble position."

Guo Zan walked out a few steps, then turned around and asked, "Did Chen Yin send a message to Chengdu, and your Jinyiwei traveled to Sichuan to confirm Gao Kewei's conspiracy and knew that I was searching for him in this area, so I ordered you Track down the people of Gaokewei before coming to deliver the order?"

"Exactly."

Guo Zan grinned: "You Jinyiwei are really talented."

"Uncle praises me absurdly, I dare not take it."

"I will report to Lord Hou and ask for credit for you." Guo Zan asked, "Wei Tan said that Gao Kewei divided his troops along the way, and the other substitutes also had someone to send orders? The soldiers under me don't know where they are hiding. Where, in what direction are you going?"

"Uncle, don't worry. The guards in the middle of Shu, Lord Hou has ordered them to guard the key areas. After the brothers of the humble ranks get the order, they will meet with the generals of the guards and arrest the thieves."

"Okay, then I'm relieved."

The carriage escorted Gao Kewei and his three surviving accomplices all the way, and it was already night when Guo Zan arrived in Chengdu.

Naturally, a fast horse rushed to Chengdu Mansion to send a message, Xue Lun was overjoyed and greeted him personally outside the north gate.

Glancing at Gao Kewei and the guards who were tied up in the carriage to prevent him from committing suicide, Xue Lun beamed and said, "Have you found out about his other strategies for chaos?"

"He refuses to tell." Guo Zan's mood is not as beautiful as it was at the beginning. "I'm afraid he will be tortured. Now he knows that he will die but he still dare not kill himself. Maybe there is some support and backup."

He would rather suffer than have some fun, Guo Zan felt that Gao Kewei might still be lucky.

Could he be rescued by someone?

Xue Lun nodded: "It doesn't matter. Now that he has been captured, it depends on His Majesty's will. With you and me here, there will be no chaos in Sichuan!"

……

In the capital, the emergency report from Sichuan is divided into three lines.

Xue Lun's side is all the way, Jinyiwei and Neichang also have their own news.

From the point of view of the counselors, it was just after the Fifth Military Battalion Rebellion ended and His Majesty's decree arrived at the place, there was such a reaction immediately, and the situation was worrying.

The most important question is: Is Xue Lun's statement credible?

"Your Majesty, there should be another secret report coming because of this change in Sichuan?" Yang Tinghe is most worried now, "Then Gao Kewei actually said that he wanted to go to the ancestral grave of the old minister under the guise of Fei Zichong and Yang Wuhou..."

Wang Qiong and others looked at Yang Tinghe with complicated emotions.

Whether Fei Hong dares to do a fake show for real has always been a lingering shadow in Yang Tinghe's heart.

Fei Hong, whose ancestral grave has been dug up, is staring at Sichuan.

But now that a memorial came to Beijing, it was impressively written that Gao Kewei threatened to take people to shovel the grave of the Yang family's ancestors, how could Yang Tinghe not be worried.

Zhu Houcong smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, old man, didn't I arrange someone to guard your Yang family? Marquis Yang Wu also said that Gao Kewei's suspicion was probably a way to get rid of the golden cicada's shell. Now that he I have already sent Cheng Amber to Xindu County, so there is no danger. It is only an hour before and after, so there is still time."

"...So, Xue Hou is credible?"

Yang Tinghe is only worried about his family's ancestral grave and the general situation in Sichuan.Yang Tingzhong... To put it cruelly, he is the younger brother after all.Yang Tinghe's family mainly lives in Beijing.

Of course, it cannot be said that they are not worried about the safety of their clansmen.It's just that compared with Yang Tinghe's real ending as the leader of the new law party, this is only a trivial matter.

The emperor's smile gave him a lot of comfort.

As long as Xue Lun is credible, then with the presence of this Sichuan military officer, the Sichuan incident will not become a flame that ignites those impulses in the hearts of people who are ready to move in various provinces.

Zhu Houcong put away his smile and nodded: "Marquis Yangwu has rich experience and high morals. He is a sensible person just like Marquis Zhenyuan. Now that the Sichuan incident has just happened, there is no rush to draw conclusions. Let's wait a day or two. Let's see how the follow-up report will be. What do you think about the matter of the Marquis of Zhenyuan pleading guilty and the Marquis of Jing'an asking to stay in Huguang?"

It is now April, and Zhu Houcong will indeed be emperor for three years.

In the past three years, so many things from all over the Ming Dynasty have been reported to him, and there will be various follow-up reports later, Zhu Houcong is no longer a child.

Many things, in the capital, can't be rushed, and the communication efficiency is like this.

For him, it is enough to control the direction and rhythm of the general situation, and micromanagement is impossible.

The reports of Jinyiwei and Neichang all supported what Xue Lun said: Fei Hong was indeed not in the Chengdu mansion, Yang Junlin was indeed under custody by Xue Lun, and everyone sent by Gao Kewei to cause trouble was followed.

That's just a matter of how to deal with it.

In comparison, what happened in Huguang hasn't happened yet, so we need to decide how to deal with it.

Gu Shilong's son had interests in the Chu Palace, and there were many vassals in Huguang, a wealthy place, and many guards had only guarded against a few vassals for so many years.

And after Yongle, after the vassal king lost his guards, did he still guard so nervously?
In addition to the Zhengde Dynasty, there were two vassal princes who rebelled.

Therefore, the guards in many places outside the border town have become more and more corrupt over the years. This is not a tacit fact, but a problem that has been discussed many times in many memorials.

Corruption represents the involvement of interests.

One of Zhang Wei's crimes today is embezzlement of ink military pay.

"I am worried that Mr. Sun Ge's temporary stay in Huguang will make some people think about it." Cui Yuan said immediately, "Although it is the purpose to let these people jump out, but at the moment there are changes in Sichuan, if there are too many places for chaos, I may Can't cope..."

Zhu Houcong did not express his opinion for the time being, but looked at other people.

Wang Qiong also said: "Although the Fifth Army Battalion has undergone preliminary investigation and rectification by Duke Dingguo, it will still take some time to stabilize the morale of the army. Although the selection of the Shenji Battalion and the [-] Battalion can be dispatched to various places, the selection of the Beijing Battalion will be affected. It is also bound to be aggressive, and it is difficult to predict what changes will be caused after the place is located, and it still needs to be acted upon."

They are still cautious because of such changes in Sichuan.Sichuan already has a procuratorial envoy pulling the chief envoy to make troubles together, and it is not yet known how things will go.And if the Beijing camp is clearly sent to various places to guard, then it is really necessary to prepare for the multi-line response to the war of chaos.

At this point in time, Sun Jiao, the head of the state, stayed in Huguang, which sent a wrong signal to some people in other provinces. They thought that Sun Jiao refused to return to Beijing because he was protecting himself as the head of state.

However, Yang Tinghe gritted his teeth and said: "I think Lord Jiufeng is doing this seriously! Your Majesty can approve and encourage you if Lord Jiufeng and Marquis of Zhenyuan ask you to play. Marquis of Zhenyuan, please put him first, so that Your Majesty can have a chance." The reason for deterring some honorable relatives is that there is no need to punish Marquis Zhenyuan now that Zhang Wei is involved. It is better to ask Lord Jiufeng to investigate and deal with this matter, so that Marquis Zhenyuan can set an example and be punished, admonish his son, and quickly clean up the water conservancy in Huguang. "

"At the same time, we can send [-] people from the Shenji Battalion to attack Huguang and be dispatched by the Marquis of Zhenyuan." Yang Tinghe was stimulated by Sichuan, and now he was courageous. The mind has been decided. If there are people in the provinces who are not willing to implement the new law, they can speed up the connection. Your Majesty will not gain nothing from walking in the Jinyiwei and the internal inspection factory in the dark cloth of the provinces."

Then he said: "Sichuan Gao Kewei acted so recklessly like a frightened bird, I suspect that it must be related to Zhang Wei's matter. Although your majesty is not in a hurry to deal with Sichuan's matter, however, you can first order Yang Wuhou to interrogate Yang Junlin and Zhang Wei's matter. Yang Junlin's previous confession must be incomplete and untrue in order to get rid of the crime. If the investigation is clear, who else is involved in the provinces will naturally come to light."

After so long, although Zhang Wei is not really a brave person, he is now a "simple and brave" person who doesn't say much.

Of course, it may also be because some of his bloodlines are hidden somewhere and protected by certain people.

Just like he had a daughter married to Li Xiang.

After Yang Tinghe said this, the others couldn't help staring at him.

He is hoping that Zhenyuanhou and Sun Jiao will raise their swords in Huguang, and he also hopes to use the Sichuan incident as a breakthrough point to find a list in more places.

Then, the Beijing camp's draft forwards all had clear reasons to pass.

Up to now, Yang Tinghe no longer cares about the power of Jinyiwei and the inner factory stationed by the emperor in the local area, whether it will make the local officials tremble with fear.

If the new law fails, the ancestral graves of Yang Tinghe's family will be shoveled.

Wu Tingju, the Minister of the Household Department, only reminded: "Your Majesty, this year's food and tax must be considered."

Yes, the next few months will be busy farming seasons.

When they decided to investigate Li Xiang's case in depth, although they knew that Huangmingji now buys more than [-] shi of grain from Jiaozhi and Annan every year, it was not enough.

The most important thing is how far this turmoil will affect Daming and how long it will last.

Even if some people have food, money, and food and wages in their families, if the war continues and the people miss the cultivation, lose the harvest, and cause disasters, it will be self-defeating.

The consultants have fully expressed their opinions, and now it is time for Zhu Houcong to make up his mind.

To their surprise, Zhu Houcong said the method was very simple: "Nanzhili and the other thirteen provinces, if there is no governor, there will be a governor. The eunuchs in each province will be guarded. I will consider the candidates again and make him temporarily admiral Jinyiwei. The governor shared the secret report. Before the Longevity Festival, I will clean it first. Huguang regards Sun Ge as the governor, who would like to go to Nanzhili, Shandong, Jiangxi, etc.?"

The counselors couldn't help but freeze their eyes: The counselors went to various places to become the governor?
