Chapter 606: Death of Jinyiwei

When night falls, the moonlight shines on the quiet academy. The shadowy figures of the scholars are still arguing about academic matters, but the tension is gone. Instead, there is a gentle and soft communication.

Behind all this is the calm and steady figure of National Master Lin Che, stirring up the cultural wave and igniting the spark of scholarship.

The autumn wind swept across the capital, and the shadow of the palace was stretched long across the fading sunlight on the stone slabs.

In the court, an imperceptible tense atmosphere passed quietly like an invisible electric current.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat upright on the dragon throne, his eyes fixed.

There were disputes among powerful officials and factions in the palace. Even her Jinyiwei were dragged into the quagmire and became pawns in the power struggle.

Among them, one of the leaders had an unusual incident. Last night, a Jinyiwei general on duty disappeared, and the entire capital was plunged into deep unrest.

"Why is there still no news?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked his Jinyiwei leader Ji Gang in a cold voice.

Ji Gang's forehead was covered with sweat. "Step aside. The Royal Guards are doing their best to search for him, but..."

"Just what?" Zhu Yuanzhang shouted in a deep voice, his voice like thunder, shaking all the ministers in the hall to bow their heads in response.

At this time, the Imperial Master Lin Che quietly walked out from behind the pillar of the hall. His figure dispelled the somewhat gloomy atmosphere, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"Say it."

There was a hint of anticipation between Zhu Yuanzhang's brows. Imperial Preceptor Lin Che had always been known for his ingenuity, and he had an almost blind trust in this Imperial Preceptor.

Lin Che took a deep breath and said, "Last night, I used Taoism to spy on the secrets of heaven and found that there might be a deeper conspiracy behind the disappearance of the Jinyiwei."

"Conspiracy?" Zhu Yuanzhang repeated the word, frowning, "You mean, someone is deliberately trying to undermine the government?"

Lin Che's eyes were fixed on the subject. "That's right."

The disappearance of the Jinyiwei may not just be a disappearance. It may be that some force is secretly trying to shake our security system. Since they dare to infect our Jinyiwei, they will certainly not be content to sit idly by.

"Then what should we do?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked anxiously.

Lin Che looked at Zhu Yuanzhang quietly, "Take the same approach that he took to anger you."

"We can make secret arrangements and make them expose their weaknesses."

Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "I'll leave this matter to you. What I want is the result."

"The minister obeys the order."

Lin Che promised and nodded slightly.

Afterwards, National Master Lin Che's plan began to unfold quietly.

He found a calm Jinyiwei general and secretly arranged a counter-espionage plan against the disappearance.

"General Zhang, this mission is quite dangerous. If anything happens to you during this trip, our national teacher will take care of it for you, and your family will be properly taken care of."

Lin Che looked at General Zhang in front of him, his tone full of solemnity.

General Zhang stood straight, grateful for Lin Che's concern, "Master, I am willing to serve the Ming Dynasty."

"My family is in Youzhou, I was born in Wuyang, and grew up in the Jinyiwei. I hope I can contribute to the Ming Dynasty in this life."

So, according to the arrangement of the imperial teacher, General Zhang began to deliberately spread rumors, claiming that he knew the whereabouts of the missing general.

Just like bait thrown into the water, it is blown away by the wind and attracts the hunter in the dark.

The mastermind behind the scenes never thought that this would play into Lin Che's hands.

In the dead of night, they secretly sent people to General Zhang's residence in the fog, trying to sound the alarm for Zhu Yuanzhang again. At this time, General Zhang was not alone. He was surrounded by the capable disciples of the national teacher, hiding in the dark, ready to take action at any time.

As expected, when the Anxie assassins stepped into the trap, they were suddenly unable to move. It turned out that Lin Che's subordinates had already set up layers of magic arrays around them.

Without anyone noticing, he fell into the trap.

With a puff, an assassin fell to the ground with a look of horror. He didn't expect that he would be captured so easily.

The other assassins lost their fighting spirit in an instant and surrendered one after another.

Not long after that, when the first rays of sunlight shone into Zhu Yuanzhang's study in the early morning, the imperial teacher Lin Che stood in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, the case of this disappearance has a clear record."

Zhu Yuanzhang showed a satisfied smile, "It's worth my trust in you, it really worked."

So who is the mastermind behind this?"

Lin Che replied calmly, "He is a frontier minister in the court. He claims to be loyal to Your Majesty, but in fact he has joined forces with foreign enemies and wants to take this opportunity to shake the court in order to plot this."

"Damn it." Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, then gradually calmed down and turned to Lin Che and said, "Lin Che, I want you to severely punish this thief and let everyone in the world know that my Ming Dynasty will not be shaken by thieves."

“I obey your command.” Lin Che bowed, his voice full of calmness and determination.

When the minister was brought before Zhu Yuanzhang and faced the king's scrutiny, he was filled with fear.

However, he suddenly discovered that what frightened him the most was not Zhu Yuanzhang in front of him, but the expressionless imperial teacher Lin Che who was standing silently on the side.

The name of the Imperial Master Lin Che is not only a name that is praised in the palace, but also a fear that tugs at the heartstrings of every conspirator in the dark.

His strength and wisdom became an insurmountable barrier for the Ming Dynasty.

Over the grassland, the boundless wind blew, carrying the loess and grass fragrance, floating on the cheeks of every brave warrior.

On this day, the tribal leaders of the grassland gathered in the majestic grassland tent. Although they talked and agreed, there were undercurrents in their hearts.

Lin's strategy for governing the country penetrated like a drizzle, silently bringing the grassland tribes and the Ming Dynasty closer together.

At the important moment of the alliance, Lin Che, as the powerful imperial teacher of the Ming Dynasty, sat quietly in the big tent wearing a simple robe.

Although the person in front of him was a rude tribal leader, he was calm in his movements and his eyes were restrained but deep, showing the demeanor of a man who had been through hundreds of battles but remained untainted by the dust.

"Master, this is our respect."

Ha Tumu handed over the jade cup with a smile, and the aroma of wine was rich.

"Haha, please, Imperial Master."

The other leaders also followed suit, their generous words could not conceal the expectations in their hearts.

Lin Che took the jade cup, raised his head and stared at the other person, with a gleam of light in his eyes.

Compared with his wisdom, the difference between these rough leaders is like the difference between the stars and the bright moon in the night sky. However, his heart is as calm as still water and has never been disturbed by the outside world.

At this moment, Lin Che put the cup close to his nose and smiled faintly, "Lord Ha Tumu, please pray for this covenant first."

Lin Che muttered a few words silently, casually threw in a silver needle, and then gently stirred the wine.

The silver needle inexplicably became dim, and the wine in the jade cup also seemed to be different.

When the leaders saw this, they were puzzled and surprised.

Lin Che raised her head, her eyes sharp as a knife, "I'm afraid there is a deeper meaning in this glass of wine!"
