I am the carpenter king

Looking at the flames on the river, Emperor Tianqi's eyes kept flashing coldly, and his whole body was chilled.The flames reflected on the river surface, and the river surface was suddenly blood red. With the flow of the river, it seemed that the blood was constantly rippling.

Looking back at Yuan Keli, Emperor Tianqi said softly with a smile on his face, "Yuan Aiqing, it seems we can't leave this time!"

"Going back to the emperor, I can't leave!" After the fire, Yuan Keli saw the smile on Emperor Tianqi's face. The Emperor Tianqi who was originally calm and calm made Yuan Keli full of fear.

Not looking at the boats on fire, Emperor Tianqi waved to Dang Han and Chen Lin who were not far away, and turned to look at the pier not far away.

Hearing the shouts around, Emperor Tianqi stood so quietly, and said in a deep voice after a long time: "Chen Lin, the Yingchun Tower we went to today is the property of Dongchang? What is the name of the shopkeeper? What is his identity?" [

"Returning to Your Majesty, the Yingchun Tower we went to today is a hidden pile in the East Factory, and many spies from the East Factory are under its jurisdiction. The shopkeeper is called Chen Fang. His position in the East Factory is not high, but he is just a stall." Chen Lin was naturally prepared for the things that could be used along the way, and the eunuchs around the emperor were not easy to do either!

Slowly nodded, Emperor Tianqi showed no expression on his face, pondered for a while, and said, "Is this person reliable?"

Hearing this question from Emperor Tianqi, Chen Lin was slightly taken aback, and sweat dripped down his forehead.He faltered for a while, but didn't say anything.He is the eunuch next to Emperor Tianqi, and his rank is not high, so he doesn't know much about the East Factory.He didn't know what Li Fang was like, and Wei Chao told him about the Dongchang stronghold.

"Your Majesty, Chen Fang is 40 years old this year. He is the godson adopted by the former governor of the East Factory. He was originally a foreman in the East Factory, and he was deeply valued by the former factory governor. Later, Eunuch Wei became the factory governor, and Chen was conveniently assigned Arrived here. Although it is not considered exile, it is not bad. This person is deep in thought, good at kung fu, and sophisticated in his actions. I think this person is reliable, but now he is cautious and only wants to protect himself!" Dang Han stood up on the side, like a treasure He said the original again, but his face was slightly gloomy.

He glanced at Dang Han.Emperor Tianqi nodded to him, Luo Sigong's people were really kind and capable.Seeing Chen Lin trembling on the side, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said: "Chen Lin, don't do this. If you don't know something, you just don't know it. Just tell the truth by my side. Didn't your godfather teach you this? "

"Slave obeys the order!" Chen Lin raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, heaved a sigh of relief, and glanced at Luo Sigong gratefully.

Turning his eyes to Yuan Keli, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Let's go ashore tomorrow! I'm afraid we will stay in Jining City for a while!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Yuan Keli sighed inwardly, but without revealing anything on his face, he bowed and gave a salute.

Slowly walk to the cabin.Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Leave a few people to watch the boat, and the rest will go ashore."

After talking overnight, Emperor Tianqi and others went ashore early the next morning and went straight to Yingchun Tower.There was a murder case here, and the guests almost ran away. Emperor Tianqi and others directly booked the Yingchun Building.

Emperor Tianqi lived in the small courtyard behind the Yingchun Building, surrounded by guards, it was not easy to come here.At this time, Emperor Tianqi was sitting in the inner room.Accompanying Emperor Tianqi were Yuan Keli and Dang Han.The twin sisters were waiting on the side, and there were snacks and tea on the table, but a few of them had no intention of eating.

In the outer room, Chen Lin sat at the main seat, with Fuchen placed on the side table, with his eyes above the top.Reaching out to pick up the tea bowl on the side, he took a sip slowly.He put his teacup aside.

Contemptuously glanced at Li Fang who was kneeling on the ground, Chen Lin coughed and said arrogantly: "Li Fang, this is the stronghold of Dongchang. A case happened here, how will this stronghold be used in the future? How do you do things? of?"

For Chen Lin in front of him, Li Fang was quite dismissive in his heart, but Li Fang did not dare to underestimate the person standing behind Chen Lin.Eunuch Bingbi, the supervisor of ceremonies, is now the eunuch Chen Hongchen, the admiral of Liaodong.It stands to reason that there was too much difference in positions from the eunuch Bingbi, the supervisor of ceremonies, to the eunuch supervising the army in Liaodong. Chen Hong and Eunuch Chen were exiled.

However, anyone who is well-informed knows that this person is not exiled, but was sent by Emperor Tianqi to Liaodong.Before leaving, Emperor Tianqi sent it to him in person, and dropped Chen Hong, Eunuch Chen's godson, Eunuch Chen Lin and Eunuch Chen, by his side.

If Li Fang belonged to Eunuch Wei of Dongchang, he would definitely respect Chen Hong, but not necessarily be afraid.But now Li Fang is a child without a father, let alone being stepped on by Chen Lin, many people are looking for trouble!

"Eunuch Chen, the little one doesn't know! Who would have thought that such a thing would happen!" Li Fang was full of grievances, almost crying, but his eyes were unusually calm.

Growing up in the palace, Chen Lin had seen life and death a lot, and he was unmoved at all. He said in a deep voice, "Li Fang, you don't need to do this in front of our family. We all know your past. Human feelings are cold and warm, I think I can also see clearly, our family has no time to argue with you."

Li Fang was slightly taken aback, this Eunuch Chen has something to say!Several thoughts kept turning in my mind, and I hurriedly said: "Please ask the father-in-law, the little one knows if I can't say enough!" [

Smiling and nodding, Chen Lin was also complaining in his heart. If Emperor Tianqi wanted Li Fang to do things, he would come forward to subdue him.Since he is Chen Hong's godson, he naturally represents Chen Hong.Now that he accepts Li Fang, he is going against Wei Chao, and I hope his godfather won't scold him when he finds out.Thinking of Emperor Tianqi beside him, Chen Lin's heart became firmer.

"Li Fang, many things in this world are unpredictable. If you go down today, he will come up tomorrow. It is not unusual in the officialdom. Our family gave you a chance, a chance to be a new man, I don't know Do you want it?" Chen Lin looked indifferent, but his last words were full of threats.

At this time, Li Fang's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and he was constantly thinking in his heart.This Eunuch Chen obviously wants to take him in. If he agrees, it means that he has completely offended Eunuch Wei.If you don't agree, you will offend this Eunuch Chen, that is, you will offend the big Eunuch Chen behind you.

Anyway, I don't get along with Eunuch Wei, and I don't know when I will be killed. Now that I have this opportunity, no matter what the result is, I must give it a go!

"Little Li Fang, obey your father-in-law!" Li Fang kowtowed to Chen Lin with a respectful expression on his face, and he knew very well the weight of this bow in his heart.

Chen Lin didn't take any money, stood up from the chair, helped Li Fang up with a smile, and said: "In the future, you will benefit from doing things for our family well. If this matter can be resolved this time, our family will I promise to transfer you back to the capital! If Dongchang can’t stay, I’ll send you to Jinyiwei, our family keeps our word!”

"My little thank you, father-in-law, I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate!" Li Fang was also thinking in his heart, if he could really turn over, he must trample all those who made trouble.

"Dongchang is not a certain person's Dongchang. Although Eunuch Wei is the admiral of Dongchang, he is still the emperor's servant after all. As long as he is sincere in his errands, the emperor will see that there is nothing he can't stay in Dongchang!" Emperor Tianqi said slowly He opened the door of the room and walked out with Yuan Keli and Dang Han.

Looking at this scene in a daze, Li Fang didn't expect that there were people inside, so he froze there for a while, not knowing what it was like.

"Young Master says you can stay, so you can stay!" Chen Lin looked at Emperor Tianqi flatteringly, and immediately got shorter, and said with a smile.

Li Fang on the side was even more stunned, and couldn't help looking up and down at Emperor Tianqi. Seeing Emperor Tianqi's attire, Li Fang knew that this person's identity must be extraordinary.Looking at Dang Han and Yuan Keli who were following behind, one of them was Lian Jiazi, and the old man looked very ordinary.But Li Fang didn't dare to underestimate him at all. Old people like Tongchang are full of wit and tricks.

Slowly getting on the chair, Emperor Tianqi said slowly: "This Eunuch Chen belongs to me. Rather than saying that you are doing things for Eunuch Chen, you might as well do things for me. My current identity is the young owner of Longchang Company , I don’t know if you’ve heard of it.”

His body trembled slightly, Chen Fang's face was full of shock, Jining was by the canal, and most of the people who came and went were merchants.The Longchang business has been rumored for a long time, and there are different opinions about the owner behind the scenes.Unexpectedly, he actually saw it, and was able to let Eunuch Chen stand by him. Chen Fang even suspected that the person in front of him was the prince.

"What? Do you feel that you have been wronged by doing things for me?" Emperor Tianqi said in surprise seeing that Chen Fang did not speak.

"Master, you are a villain. It is an honor for you to be able to do things for you!" Chen Fang hurriedly saluted, secretly happy in his heart, it seemed that he had chosen the right person this time.

Nodding his head appreciatively, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said, "That's right, I'm asking you, how much do you know about yesterday's murder?"

Chen Fang was taken aback again, not knowing what this young master was going to do, and quickly said: "I don't know much about it, but I am very familiar with the person who was killed. His name is Xu Dezhi, he is from Yangzhou, Ming The business on the surface is selling porcelain. But I know that he is a salt smuggler in private, and he often comes to Jining to smuggle salt. Every time he talks with the same people, but the one who came yesterday is different from the previous ones, Xiao I don't know who he is!" Chen Fang didn't dare to hide anything, Chen Fang told everything he knew! (to be continued...)
