Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 316 Opening the Tianzihao Secret File Room
Emperor Longqing shook his head: "He Liu, I know you as a monarch and minister! Don't learn from Lu Fang and Yan Song of the previous dynasty, and only tell lies to the emperor, not the truth to the emperor! I won't let you be the commander of Jinyiwei, It would be strange if you were happy! But I have my difficulties!"

He Liu was silent, just kowtowed.He knew that what he could do now was to kowtow more and talk less.

Emperor Longqing said: "I will pour bitter water with you! All the ministers in the court said that the late emperor ruled the world with his family slaves. After the late emperor died within a day, someone sent a memorial, suggesting that we weaken the power of the factory guards. In fact, Grandpa Cheng had already done the work of weakening the power of Jinyiwei. At the beginning, he went south to Jingnan, captured Nanjing City, announced that he would cut down the power of house slaves, and rule the world together with the officials. So he abolished Jinyiwei."

Emperor Longqing took a sip of tea, and said: "But within a few years, Grandfather Cheng discovered that the Ming Dynasty could not do without a yamen for secret errands. As a last resort, he had to re-establish the Jinyiwei, and set up another Dongchang to restrain the Jinyiwei. The courtiers It is reasonable and reasonable for me to weaken the power of the factory guards! I have no choice but to accept advice. I had no choice but to make Liu Shouyou the commander of Jinyiwei. After Liu Shouyou was a famous minister, although he was a military officer, he belonged to the The Qing school in the imperial court. He is only my courtier, not my domestic slave. In this way, the courtiers can’t say that I will continue to rule the world as a domestic slave, can they?”

What Emperor Longqing said was contradictory. Since it was to silence the officials, Liu Shouyou, Qingliu, was made the commander of Jinyiwei.Then why did he set up the left commander on the command envoy, and let his slave Zhu Xixiao take this position?
However, in front of the emperor, there is no reason to speak.Emperor Longqing could find [-] reasons for not letting He Liu be the commander.Who made him the emperor and He Liu a slave?
Emperor Longqing made a long speech, and then said: "He Liu, I know that you have been wronged! I will make it up to you! I will make Xiangxiang the county head and your wife the second rank. I grant you the Order of Yi Jin Yi! You are allowed to pass over the Commander and Zuo Dudu to report to me at any time!"

After finishing speaking, Emperor Longqing took out the jade brocade order from a wooden box.This Jinyi Token was previously owned by Lao Hu, the "Shadow Commander" sent by Emperor Jiajing to Jinyiwei.When dealing with Yang Lian's case, Lao Hu handed over the token to Emperor Jiajing.

Emperor Longqing solemnly handed the order of brocade clothes to He Liu.But He Liu knew clearly: this is just a sign.If the emperor recognizes this brand, it represents the supreme power in Jinyiwei.If you don't recognize it, the brand will always be a brand!
Emperor Longqing said with a smile: "Now you should tell me the truth, right? Are you unhappy that I won't let you be the commander?"

He Liu nodded and said, "Yes!"

As soon as the word "yes" came out of his mouth, Emperor Longqing frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.This was just a momentary expression, He Liu lowered his head and couldn't detect it.

He Liu continued: "Your Majesty, I said that I am not happy because I did not get the position of commander. It is because of an old case of more than 20 years."

Emperor Longqing became interested: "Oh? What old case? Tell me in detail."

He Liudao: "More than 20 years ago, the minister's father, He Ping, was in charge of inspecting hundreds of households in Jinyiwei. There was a party dispute between Xia and Yan. Xia Yan, a student of the old chief assistant, participated in the impeachment of Yan's party cadre, Dali Temple Minister Huang Shougong, for corruption and bribery. The minister brought Wearing hundreds of brocade clothes and guard robes, Ze found Huang Shougong's foreign house, and was about to search for evidence of Huang Shougong's corruption. At midnight, all his robes were killed by a group of "yin soldiers". His father was seriously injured and dying. Although he survived, He was rescued and returned to the capital, and died of his injuries as soon as he returned to Beijing."

Emperor Longqing said: "I have heard about the case of the ghost soldiers in the ghost house 20 years ago. Let's continue."

He Liudao: "In the 36th year of Jiajing, Huang Shan, the son of Huang Shougong, the owner of the ghost house, was appointed as the Governor of Shuntian. The minister seized the evidence of his rampant crimes and threatened Huang Shan to reveal the truth about the case of the ghost soldiers in the ghost house. I never thought that the two of us agreed to meet He died for no apparent reason that night, and at the same time, a fire broke out in Chen's house, and his wife was burned to death. The clues were broken again..."

Emperor Longqing waved his hand: "Don't talk about it. I understand! You want to check the secret file room of Tianzihao and find out the truth about the case of ghost soldiers in the ghost house, right? Because only the commander of Jinyiwei and I can open the secret file room." , If you can’t be a commander, you don’t have this right. The cause of death of your father and wife can’t be ascertained. You are unhappy because of this.”

He Liudao: "The emperor is wise!"

Emperor Longqing said: "This is very easy to handle! I will give you a yellow booklet to clarify the decree. You take this decree and go to the secret room to check it!"

He Liu is overjoyed!Emperor Longqing wrote the imperial decree and stamped it with a seal.He Liu took the imperial decree and went directly to the northwest corner of Yongshou Palace, where he found the guard on duty, Qianhu Wangba!

Wang Ba and He Liu returned to Beizhen Fusi.On the east side of Fusi Yamen in Beizhen, there is a house with layers of iron fences.Outside the house, dozens of Nansi wrestlers armed with firecrackers stood guard.

Wang Ba took out a bunch of keys from his pocket.

The guards of the stalls clasped their hands and said: "Sixth Master, Eighth Master, you two elders know the rules. You two are not commanders. If you want to open the twelve iron locks in the secret stalls of Tianzihao, you must take out the imperial decree. The six generations People are guarding the secret files of the Tianzihao, and that's their duty. Don't be offended by the two of you."

He Liu nodded and showed the imperial decree to the guard Baihu.

After watching the imperial decree, the guards of hundreds of households stepped aside.

There are twelve iron fences around the Tianzihao secret stalls.Every time you enter an iron fence, you must open a lock.

After Wang Ba unlocked eleven locks, the two walked to the door of the stall.He Liu raised his head and glanced at the nine big characters "Jinyiwei Tianzihao Secret File Room" written on the door, and he was overjoyed: he finally found out the truth about the ghost house case!Even if the truth cannot be found, it is acceptable to find some clues from the secret files of the year!It's better than having no clues now.

Wang Ba opened the last lock.He said to He Liu: "Brother Liu, I have no right to accompany you in. I'll wait for you outside."

He Liu nodded, and pushed open the door of the stall!
He Liu took out a piece of flint, and took out half of a candle from his arms to light it—he fell to the ground with a thud!
The stalls are empty!Only in the center, there is a brazier!Where is a secret file?
"Could it be that there is a hidden space?" He Liu asked himself suspiciously.

But if you look carefully, the ground of the secret stall is covered with a whole piece of large iron plate.There are also iron plates on the walls, there is absolutely no possibility of hiding a secret room!

He Liu shouted loudly: "Come on! The secret files have been stolen!"

Wang Ba shouted outside: "Brother Six, the secret files have been stolen? We have no right to go in, come out and say it!"
