The First Gongsheng of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 680: Crossing the treasure mountain without entering

Yang Peng worked hard and returned to the capital from the port in two days. The first thing he did when he came back was to talk to Mou Bin, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, about Li Zhang.

"Before Eunuch Li left office, he closed all the cases that the capital could handle. Most of the cases are here. Eunuch Yang, please read them." Mou Bin also received Yang Peng cautiously.

Yang Peng was both his former boss and his current boss, separated by Li Rong and Li Zhang, brothers from the same discipline.

Mou Bin also knew very well that Li Zhang and Yang Peng were not from the same school, but had a grudge against each other.

Yang Peng picked up the case in his hand and said coldly: "In just a few days, you have finished all the backlog of cases? Are you sure you are not fooling around? Can it stand up to scrutiny?"

"This..." Mou Bin thought for a while, suddenly thought of something, and quickly dismissed the thoughts in his mind. He said respectfully, "What needs to be done is done. I need your guidance from Eunuch Yang to see if it is appropriate."

"Not a single case left?" Yang Peng was also angry.

What do you think you, Li Zhang, can do?

It seems you just want to cover up something, otherwise why would you be so desperate before resigning?
"There are some cases..." Mou Bin hesitated.

"What? You still want to cover it up?" Yang Peng asked coldly.

Mou Bin continued to deal with it carefully and said: "There was a case that the queen confessed before, but it has never been closed. Even the criminal... has not been brought to court."

"Who?" Yang Peng frowned, "It was actually arranged by the queen? Are you trying to fool our family? Is it about Shouning Hou and Jian Changbo?"

Mou Bin said: "No, it's about the former wife of the Marquis of Anbian..."

"Ex-Madam?" Yang Peng was still confused. Then he thought of something and almost jumped out of his chair. With a bit of horror and disbelief on his face, he asked, "Is it someone named Ning? He once entered the palace and became a concubine. The lady in front of you?"

"Exactly." Mou Bin didn't expect that Yang Peng would care so much about Ning Tong.

Yang Peng asked hurriedly: "Where is that person?"

Mou Bin said: "He is still under custody in Beijing, and he is treated with good food every day. Before Eunuch Li left, his humble position also mentioned this person to him, but he said... he didn't want to pay attention to it."

"Hmph! Is he afraid of trouble?" Yang Peng finally had a smile on his face, looking at Mou Bin with appreciation and said, "If she is really fine, you have done a good job. Quickly, take our family to see her."

"This……"

Mu Bin never thought that Yang Peng not only cared about Ning Tong, but also regarded Ning Tong as a treasure.

Yang Peng sneered and said: "You dare to deal with a female official who is admired by His Majesty without knowing what's going on. You are lucky that your head has not fallen off."

"Thank you, Eunuch Yang, for your advice, but... I don't understand what it means." Mou Bin was also confused.

Even though I knew that Ning Tong had an unusual background, I still wouldn't risk my life just because of the Queen's orders, right?

The method of scaring people is really extraordinary.

Yang Peng said: "Don't be verbose. If you still want to stay in this position, just hurry up and do something! We want to see this girl, and we must meet her now! This Li Zhang really doesn't know how to do things. He can't get through Baoshan without getting in. No wonder he didn't do well." End!"

Mou Bin understood immediately after hearing this that Yang Peng looked down on Li Zhang.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is as ruthless as Li Zhang, but in Yang Peng's case, he has never been able to get on the stage.

……

……

Mou Bin hurriedly arranged the manpower, and he personally led the team, and then took Yang Peng to see Ning Tong.

"Eunuch, should you go to the palace first to see the saint?" Mou Bin asked.

Yang Peng said: "Did your Majesty say that you can meet whenever you want? As for the other people, is it important that I go to see this lady?"

Mou Bin felt even more confused.

He was also thinking in his mind, your Eunuch Yang is now the Eunuch Bingbi, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, which means he is only half a level lower than Chen Kuan, but he still needs to go to the dock anyway. Could it be that you can become arrogant after joining the Supervisory Supervisor of Ceremonies? ?

With doubts, Mou Bin led Yang Peng to the other courtyard. After entering, he quickly arranged for people to call Ning Tong out.

But Yang Peng couldn't wait to go in and see Ning Tong.

But Ning Tong looked haggard. After more than a month of living in a cage, the edges on her body seemed to have been worn away. When she saw someone who looked like a guard coming in, her eyes showed a little panic, but then she was She covered it up.

She wanted to pretend to be calm, but she couldn't suppress the turmoil in her heart.

"You are..." Ning Tong saw Yang Peng in the yard.

Yang Peng was still anxious before, but when he got here, he changed to a calm and even condescending tone and said: "Madam, noble people really forget things. When His Majesty placed the concubine outside the palace, our family But I met you. My surname is Yang."

"Eunuch Yang?"

Ning Tong suddenly remembered.

When Ning Tong first became pregnant, Yang Peng was still the eunuch in charge of the Dongchang. Things outside the palace were arranged by Yang Peng himself.

In other words...there was an old acquaintance in front of me.

"This is our home." Yang Peng didn't go inside, but stood opposite Ning Tong, looking at Ning Tong with a sneer and said, "You have offended the Queen and ended up under house arrest. It's really an advantage for you."

Ning Tong looked sad.

I thought things were turning around, but it seemed like I was in trouble.

Yang Peng said: "Eunuch Li Zhang has now resigned from the East Factory. The East Factory is now managed by our family. Your case will also be transferred to our hands."

Ning Tong lowered his head and said: "Let me know how to deal with it. It's up to you whether you want to kill or cut into pieces."

Mou Bin on the side couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this.

He was thinking in his mind, this Eunuch Yang came with such high expectations, as if he had found a treasure, and then came to threaten the former Mrs. Anbian Hou? Is there any grudge between them?

Yang Peng put on a stinky face and said: "If you want to die, it may not be easy. Offending the Sixth Palace will make you unable to live or die."

Even though Ning Tong's psychological quality was considered to be excellent, after hearing these words, Huan's body couldn't help but trembled, and he could hardly stand still.

"But," Yang Peng said, "there is still some improvement in your case. It depends on whether the Queen still remembers you as a little person. If you are mentioned again, I am afraid you will not have a good life."

Ning Tong said: "You...what do you want?"

The voice was a little hoarse.

Obviously Ning Tong was also scared.

"After all, you have some friendship with our family, and our family will not refuse to save you. If you are willing to cooperate with our family... our family does not mean that... we must put you to death." Yang Peng sneered.

Ning Tong couldn't help but take two steps back: "You... what do you want?" Yang Peng continued to sneer, and the evil smile on his face made Mou Bin feel scared when he saw it.

It seems that he still doesn’t recognize the true face of Eunuch Yang.

Who knows what he has in mind?
"It depends on whether you want to die or live." Yang Peng said, "You still have a chance of survival now, that is... you need the help of a noble person. But you may not know whether the noble person will miss you! You should know what our family says Who must it be?"

Ning Tong thought for a while, but couldn't help but shake her head.

Yang Peng said: "In these two days, your case will make progress. Think about it carefully. When our family comes back, you'd better be more knowledgeable. We don't have much patience!"

After saying that, Yang Peng sneered and walked out of the yard.

Before, Ning Tong was just a caged bird, a little sad but not scared to death, but this time she was... completely frightened, her whole body was unnatural, and she seemed to be unable to walk.

……

……

After leaving the courtyard, Yang Peng was in a good mood and even started to hum a tune.

Mou Bin asked: "My father-in-law is interested in this lady? But do you want to make arrangements for you?"

Yang Peng glared at Mou Bin and frowned.

"Is it...what's wrong with your humble position?" Mou Bin continued to ask.

"Commander Mou, the more you live, the more you go back? Everyone thinks you are quite smart, how can you be so incomprehensible?" Yang Peng said with disdain.

Mou Bin had a look of injustice on his face.

At first I thought you were treating Ning Tong as a treasure, but the way you treated Ning Tong when you came here showed you the face of a treacherous villain.

But then you threatened that woman again. If I don't think about it, how can I understand it?

"Do you think our family is good at this?" Yang Peng said coldly, "You don't know, our family is... ahem, you really deserve to die."

Mou Binxin said, who doesn't know that you are a eunuch?
This eunuch also has emotions and desires? Who knows what you think?

Yang Peng said: "Taking a step back, even if our family really has that idea, how dare we have such evil thoughts? You may not know how powerful she is, right? The Xian Concubine regards her as a confidant, and she is the second prince's lifesaver. My benefactor, even His Majesty favors her."

"Could it be said that His Majesty treats her..." Mou Bin found it even more incredible.

His eyes seemed to be saying something.

Since you know that the emperor is interested in her, do you still dare to threaten her? Are you trying to get yourself into trouble? Shouldn't you be more fawning?
Yang Peng said helplessly: "But the strongest relationship this woman has is with Cai Guogong. She is Cai Guogong's confidante."

"This..." Mou Bin said, "Isn't it an exaggeration? Even if there is some relationship...it won't be..."

"Why do you think Li Zhang didn't dare to deal with her? Is it because of his relationship with Duke Cai Guo?" Yang Peng said, "But Li Zhang didn't understand the whole story. When Mrs. Anbian Hou came out of Cheng Guo Gong's mansion, she It was obviously a gift from the Chengguo Palace to Cai Guogong, but Cai Guogong didn't have the nerve to accept it, but he didn't refuse it. He kept hanging it until the right time to put it into his room. "

"This..." Mou Bin seemed to think that Yang Peng was talking nonsense.

"But things are different now. Marquis Anbian has a new love, and this young lady has offended the queen. Only by making her afraid can she know who she should belong to and who can protect her. Wait until she obediently goes to Cai When the National People’s Congress voted in favor, do you think Mr. Cai Guoguo thought that we would be able to do things?”

Yang Peng finally revealed his purpose.

This time Mou Bin continued to be stunned.

Can it still be done like this? Why do you think you are doing a good thing? Are you so good at inferring other people's psychology?

Mou Bin said hurriedly: "Father-in-law, if you scare her, she won't be able to think about it for a moment and hang up the rafters..."

"You want to say that she died so easily in your realm? You really don't want that thing around your neck." Yang Peng said angrily, "Rotten wood cannot be carved, what did Li Zhang teach you? You seem to be a very smart person, but now you are so stupid?”

Mou Bin said: "Bizhi understands, Beizhi will arrange for someone to keep an eye on it."

Yang Peng said angrily: "Remember, you can scare her now, but make her helpless, let her know that only Cai Guogong can save her in this world, and let her put all her thoughts on Cai Guogong. After two days, we will arrive. When she was helpless, our family would send her to Cai Guogong... then... we would be considered a favor to Cai Guogong. "

"Favor?" Mou Bin continued to be confused.

"You are said to be stupid, but you still don't want to admit it?" Yang Peng said, "This woman has offended the Queen. Even Li Zhang did not dare to deal with the person or send the person back. But our family dared to send the person to Cai Guogong In front of me, saving this woman's life and making her behave well, isn't this selling favors? "

"But...how do we deal with the Queen's side?" Mou Bin asked with a worried look on his face.

"Then are you worried about Your Majesty's conviction, worried about Cai Guogong beheading you, or worried about the Queen Empress giving you troubles? If you, a commander of the Royal Guards, are asked about it by the Queen Empress, don't you have any countermeasures for this matter? Or do you think that you Should you listen to the Queen and ignore your Majesty and Duke Cai? "

Yang Peng sneered and said, "The longer you live, the more you go back. You don't even understand your own position. Do you want to imitate Li Zhang and be a duplicitous person?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." Mou Bin said.

"Isn't that it? We are His Majesty's people and we have to work for Cai Guogong. Based on this principle, if we have a good relationship with the people in the court, if there is any conflict of interest, even if it is a case ordered by the Queen, we will We must also understand our position clearly. This is the foundation of our status. Even if we are asked about the death penalty, His Majesty will think that we are loyal ministers. "

Yang Peng said in a persuasive tone.

"Yes." Mou Bin looked teachable.

"So, Li Zhang doesn't know how to do things. He clearly had a good opportunity to establish a relationship with Cai Guogong and gain further appreciation from Cai Guogong, but he didn't know how to take advantage of it and took advantage of our family in vain."

Yang Peng put on a smile again and said, "Today is such a good day, our family will go to the palace right away."

"Then what's going on here..."

"It's up to you. Don't let anything happen to you. You need to be more careful. If anything goes wrong, your head will be at risk! Without anyone else, our family can make your life worse than death!"

……

……

Yang Peng went to the palace happily.

Naturally, he could not go to see the emperor directly. Instead, he went to the ceremonial supervisor's room first, hoping to sit on the chair he had dreamed of.

But just as he arrived at the duty room of the Supervisor of Li, he saw Chen Kuan coming out of it.

"Eunuch Chen." Yang Peng walked over with a smile, "I'm here to give you a gift. We just came back from out of town, and we prepared some small gifts. I'll give them to you when I get back."

"no!"

Chen Kuan said, "There is something in our family that I want to tell you."

"Please speak." Yang Peng was proud of himself and showed only polite respect to Chen Kuan.

Chen Kuan looked around and made sure no one was around before saying: "The Queen's side has a case involving Taiyuan Hospital. There is a guilty woman who has never been convicted. Now you take over the East Factory and find the person. Come out, follow our instructions, and get things done." (End of Chapter)
