My Brother-in-law is the Prince

  Chapter 278 Take him down

  Yi Shiha often wants to pry open Zhang Anshi's head to see what is going on in this guy's mind.

  Because he discovered that this guy's brain is jumping.

  The way of thinking of most people in this era does not apply to him.

  When you are thinking about how to find a solution from allusions, Zhang Anshi is always finding another way.

   thinking...

   In fact, this is where Zhang Anshi differs from the ancients.

  In this era, especially the top group of people, they are well-read, or their emotional intelligence is terribly high.

  But their problem-solving attitude is always to find wisdom and methods from their ancestors.

  This kind of mentality of worshiping the ancients has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so that in later generations, this mentality still has a lot of tails.

   For example, when treating diseases, even quack warlocks will use the banner of "ancient prescriptions" or call themselves old military doctors.

   Zhang Anshi is not disrespecting the ancients, but he knows that the social form in the past has changed, and a new way of thinking is necessary to find a solution.

  In this era, this is deviant, probably the type of parents who wish they were born without drowning him.

  Zhang Anshi immediately began to ask about the situation in the palace.

  How many eunuchs are there in the palace, which places in the twelve jails have more power, and which places eunuchs don't like to go to.

  Yi Shiha replied one by one, and then said: "Duke Wei really believes that there are people in the palace who want to plot evil?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "It's not that I believe it, but it must be so."

  Yi Shiha frowned, sighed and said: "Hey, it's all our fault, we didn't take good care of this family for His Majesty."

  Zhang Anshidao: "What does this have to do with you? There are 20,000 people in this palace, how many can the father-in-law keep an eye on, and the Jinyiwei... I can't guarantee it. Who doesn't have any evil thoughts in their hearts."

  Yishi Haxi said: "It's still Wei Guogong who knows how to hurt people."

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

  This person... is perverted.

  Zhang Anshi couldn't stand Yishiha's tone of voice, but fortunately he quickly recovered his composure, and said again: "You can walk with me in the palace first, and introduce you a little bit."

  Yi Shiha nodded, and while leading Zhang Anshi around, introduced patiently.

  Actually, there are no secrets in Zhu Di's palace, but because there are so many people and it is the center of power in the world, naturally there will be many disputes.

  Zhang Anshi pondered while listening.

   "Why, what is Duke Wei thinking?"

  Zhang Anshi said thoughtfully: "I'm thinking, if...there is a member of the White Lotus Sect in the palace, then what this person...will look like, I have to make a profile first."

   "Profiling?" Yi Shiha was very surprised, and said, "What profiling?"

  Zhang An Shidao: "It's just... I have some characteristics about these people in my heart. For example, if I want to catch a thief, then first... I must judge his characteristics according to the thief's habits."

"For example... thieves are often good at observing, so if there are people with erratic eyes on the street, is it more likely? Secondly, in order to deceive people, they must wear very ordinary clothes. They will never show people brightly and attract attention. Furthermore, Their family circumstances must be lower, if not, they would not make a living from it."

  Yi Shiha said: "But if someone has money at home, would he like this one?"

  Zhang Anshi glanced at him speechlessly and said: "Isn't this just arguing? Then do I have to say that some people have a rich family and become an official, so they love to be eunuchs and insist on cutting themselves into the palace?"

Yi Shiha became anxious, and said: "It's not that there is no such thing. At the time of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there was a country called Southern Han, where there was an emperor who only trusted eunuchs. The ministers of the imperial court eunuched themselves one after another in order to make progress, so that the court of the Southern Han Dynasty was full of eunuchs."

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

  Is it impossible to chat today?

  Yi Shiha saw that he was silent, so he said concernedly: "Duke Wei, why don't you speak?"

  Zhang Anshi sighed: "I don't read many books, thank you father-in-law for telling me."

  Yi Shiha laughed and said: "Actually, the servants haven't read any books. The reason why I know this is because... After all, it is related to our eunuchs, so I wrote it down."

  Zhang An Shidao: "I have seen other eunuchs, when it comes to eunuchs, they all seem taboo, but my father-in-law doesn't care about it."

  For eunuchs, castration is a great shame and a scar, so ordinary eunuchs are ashamed to mention this matter. If you mention it in front of him, he will be anxious, such as Deng Jian.

Yishiha said with a pleasant face: "What has happened, what is there to be taboo about? If there is one thing missing from the body, there will be less. If a person wants to open up, if this taboo or that taboo is always in his heart, he will only ask for it. Anxiety. It is not easy for a human being to live, it is not easy for us eunuchs to be slaves, but how many living beings in this world live freely? It’s just that some sufferings are hidden in their hearts and cannot be expressed.”

  Zhang Anshi was very puzzled and said: "Okay, don't change the topic, talk about serious things."

  Yi Shiha's face is not peaceful at this time, into you Zhang Anshi, it is clear that you were the one who started the chatter just now, and now it is us who are to blame.

  Yi Shiha said: "Duke Wei has something to ask, but it's okay to ask, we don't have any taboos."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Wait for the screening over there first. By the way, why hasn't King Yi come yet?"

  Yiwang Zhu finally arrived. He was still wearing the captain’s uniform of the official school, but the official school is a quasi-Jinyiwei institution, and the students in it have actually been awarded captains, the kind that counts as seniority.

  Zhu first went to see Zhu Di and Empress Xu.

   When Empress Xu saw Zhu, she was very happy, and waved to him, "I'm afraid you will suffer outside. Take a look at you, you are as thin as a monkey spirit."

  Zhu Bian said: "Suffering is bitter, but what's inside is quite interesting to learn."

  Zhu Di sat aside, stared at him with a stern face, and said: "Okay, okay, Zhang Qing called you here, go and beat him up, and go back to school to study after the beating, don't lose face of the late emperor."

   Zhu Ben wanted to say something, how dare you talk to your brother like this?

   It can be seen that Zhu Di's face is a little frightening, and he said: "Yes, brother emperor, I will go now."

  He went out obediently, and behind him, he heard Empress Xu complaining to Zhu Di: "He is still a child, why is Your Majesty so unreasonable? How can there be brothers who are like enemies?"

  Zhu Di said: "That kid, if you give him three points of color, he will dare to open a dyeing workshop..."

  Zhu went and came back again, saying: "Brother Huang, sister-in-law, don't talk about me behind my back."

  Zhu Di: "..."

  Zhu Dao: "My ears are relatively sharp."

  Zhu Di waved his hand, helplessly: "Get out, get out, don't talk, don't talk."

   Zhu went to see Zhang Anshi.

  Zhang Anshi patted him on the shoulder, and said kindly: "How is it in the school?"

  Zhu Dao: "President Xi, I am among the best in all subjects."

  Zhang Anshi said with a look of relief: "Very good! Come on, follow me, and tell me about the situation in the palace by the way."

  Yi Shiha said aside: "Duke Wei... Didn't we make it clear just now?"

  Yi Shiha seemed very disappointed, he told Zhang Anshi so many things about the palace, it could be said that everything was in detail, but Zhang Anshi had to ask Yi Wang again, which seemed to distrust him.

  Could it be... Zhang Anshi still suspects us?

Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "You don't understand that! The situation in the palace is different from the eyes of different people. You are an eunuch, and he is a vassal who grew up in the palace. Different."

   Zhang Anshi said, and found a stone bench in the royal garden to sit down.

  Yi Wang Zhudao: "Which aspect do you want to hear?"

   "Which aspect do you know?"

  Yiwang Zhu thought for a while and said, "Do you want to hear about Brother Huang sleeping?"

  Yi Shiha's complexion changed, and he said hastily: "Your Highness, you can't talk, you can't talk nonsense."

  Zhang Anshi said angrily: "Eunuch, we are doing serious business, can you stop interrupting all the time?"

  Yi Shiha was silent.

   Zhu then began to speak vividly.

  But I have to say that Yi Shiha's understanding of the palace is mostly about the rules of the palace, the duties of each prison, and the observation of some eunuchs who behave strangely in the palace.

  But Zhu is different. What this guy knows is mostly gossip, so much so that he even knows the situation of the opposite eclipse in the palace.

  Zhang Anshi was so addicted to hearing it, he couldn’t help admiring Zhu at this moment, and couldn’t help but say, “How do you know about people’s closing the door? It can’t be made up, right?”

Zhu said proudly: "When my father was still there, he told the minister what he did last night, which scared the minister half to death. So what he said and did at night, the emperor knew the next day. It's clear. I know these things, what's the matter? I even know who has a mole on their buttocks."

  Yi Shiha listened, shocked, and subconsciously clutched his buttocks, looking at Zhu in horror.

  Zhang Anshi was overjoyed and said: "That's right, that's right, Your Highness King Yi, you will have great achievements in the future."

  Yi Shiha smiled wryly at the side and said: "Okay, now is not the time to talk about these things, if there are really bad people in the palace..."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Don't worry, hurry up."

   As he spoke... Zhang Anshi stood up and said, "Go to the Supervisor of Rites."

  In the Lijian, dozens of school captains are busy.

  Chen Daowen cleaned up the roster and circled all the suspicious ones.

  Finally, a directory was delivered to Zhang Anshi.

  Zhang Anshi saw that in the list, the first word listed was Yishiha.

  Yi Shiha was still tilting his head, trying to see what was written inside.

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly turned away, not letting him see.

  Zhang Anshidao: "Eunuch Ha, please go out for a while. I want to discuss with Chen Baihu or King Yi."

  Yi Shiha shook his head, then said: "If you have any orders, call us yourself, you are welcome."

  Zhang Anshi said directly: "My father-in-law knows me, and I don't know what politeness is at all."

  Yi Shiha: "..."

  Yi Shiha left the Supervisor of Rites and waited for more than an hour.

  But at this time, Zhang Anshi suddenly came out, patted Yishiha on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "There are eyebrows."

   "Is there a clue?" Yi Shiha asked, "Who is it?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "Please do me a favor, father-in-law. Call me some eunuchs to arrest people in the palace. It's not good for the captain of Jinyiwei to do it. We'll just watch from the sidelines. It's your side to do it."

  Yi Shiha hurriedly said: "Okay, let's find someone here."

   After a while, a dozen young and strong eunuchs were already on standby.

  Zhang Anshi waved his hand: "Follow me, oh, His Royal Highness, you know the way better, and you lead the way."

  Zhu was very excited at this time, and hurriedly led the way ahead.

   This big house occupies a huge area. Most people would feel dizzy when entering, but Zhu knew the way very well. A group of people walked through it and finally stopped in a courtyard.

  Yi Shiha knows where this is. This is the Duzhijian. The duty of the Duzhijian is to control the movement, close knowledge, and reconnaissance of the court's supervisors, and also serve as the emperor's front police.

  Yi Shiha immediately began to think about some acquaintances in the prison, and murmured in his heart, could it be... there are still people who believe in the White Lotus Sect?

  His expression became solemn involuntarily.

  Zhang Anshi turned his head and looked at him in disbelief: "Someone ask, is this Cui Yinghao here?"

  Choi Young Ho...

  Yi Shiha has an impression of this person. This person is the secretary of the prison, and he can be regarded as an important person in the prison. He is very honest and doesn't talk to people very much.

   I didn't expect it to be this person!

  So Yi Shiha quickly winked at the **** beside him.

  After a while, the **** went and came back: "If you go back to the Grand Duke, Cui Gonggong... went to Concubine Liu..."

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

Yi Shiha said: "Actually, I really want to find this person, let us know, just teach him to come to the Supervisor of Rituals. This palace is big, and the responsibilities of eunuchs are not fixed. For example, Cui Yinghao, who knows the prison, he Nai Sishu is in charge of the transfer in the palace and the transfer of related knowledge, so I don’t know where he is.”

  Zhang Anshi said: "It's okay, I'm just afraid that he might notice it beforehand and run away. Let's go and find him."

  Yi Shiha nodded, and everyone went to a sleeping hall.

   It’s just that Zhang Anshi and others can’t go in outside the sleeping hall. Yishiha was considerate of Zhang Anshi, so he ordered: “Go and capture Cui Yinghao’s slave for us.”

   "Here."

  Eunuchs are like this. Whenever someone supports them, they feel that their backs are straight. At that moment, a group of people rushed in like castrated tigers and wolves. After a while, they dragged an **** out with all their might.

  The **** shouted: "What are you going to do, what are you going to do! You are so bold, so bold..."

  He kept calling for help, and when he saw Yi Shiha, he said anxiously: "Grandpa, Grandpa, please save me, save me."

Yi Shiha only smiled coldly, and didn't even look at him, but said lightly: "Anyone who has ability, who will enter the palace as a slave! So we keep saying, don't look at the five people in this palace." Six, but actually... they are all wimps. We are wimps, and so are you, if not, there would have been a lot of trouble outside the palace, no matter what, we would still be able to keep our eggs."

"The reason why we are five people and six people, and decent, is not because we are promising, but because... Your Majesty only took one thing from us, and that is loyalty. With this loyalty, no matter how incapable we are, No matter how the mud can't support the wall, the palace will give him a bite to eat, and discipline him so that he won't starve or freeze to death."

Speaking of this, Yi Shiha paused for a moment, and then said in a louder voice: "But some people...have enough food, there are five people and six people, and they really think that they have the ability, that they are amazing So much so that even this loyalty is forgotten, such a person, we don't bother to discuss his character, but we only know that he is not far from death."

After hearing this, Cui Yinghao prostrated himself at Yishiha's feet, and kowtowed continuously: "If the servant has made any mistakes, the Grand Duke can just teach the servant a lesson, and the servant will kowtow to you, who doesn't know, in this palace, only the big Father-in-law, you are the most kind-hearted, and you are sympathetic to us slaves..."

  Yi Shiha sneered, and said: "Oh... unfortunately, you didn't commit the crime at our hands, so it's useless to beg us, Duke Wei, he will leave it to you."

  Cui Yinghao noticed Zhang Anshi now, so he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Million death, ten thousand death... slave girl did nothing wrong, slave girl..."

   As he spoke, he kept kowtowing to Zhang Anshi.

  Zhang Anshi said coldly: "Stop acting, save a little tears, there will be a place to cry when the time comes, so answer honestly."

   There is a lot of trouble here.

  So... the two concubines who were in the sleeping hall also came out, and the two of them hugged each other.

  One is Concubine Liu and the other is Concubine Jin.

  Concubine Liu seemed a little displeased, mainly because someone caught her from her bedroom. But he came closer, walked a few zhang away, but didn't say anything, just put his pretty face as cold as frost.

  Yi Shiha accompanied her with a smiling face, went up to welcome her, and saluted Concubine Liu: "Your maidservant has seen the two empresses."

  Concubine Jin gently nodded to Yi Shiha, obviously she was in awe of Yi Shiha.

   But Concubine Liu's temper was not very good, she said: "What's going on?"

  Yi Shiha said: "A rebel has been arrested."

  Concubine Liu was dissatisfied and said: "Cui Yinghao has made great achievements, and he has become a rebellious party. Since he took the rebel party, why is there still..."

  She glanced at Zhang Anshi and the others from afar.

  Yi Shiha said: "This is what His Majesty meant. The White Lotus Sect... is really hateful. There are people in the palace. His Majesty authorized them to enter the palace to investigate for the safety of the palace. Isn't this also for the peace of mind of the ladies?"

Concubine Liu said: "After checking and checking, the real thieves have not been investigated, but they are looking for honest people to bully. Cui Yinghao is such a hardworking person, and he is also loyal on weekdays. In a blink of an eye, he will become a chaotic party. There will be no one. , let’s keep an eye on the position of his supervisor secretary.”

  Yi Shiha smiled and said: "Your Majesty, look at what you said, this is up and down, who dares to joke about the chaos."

  Concubine Liu seemed resentful, and wanted to protect Cui Yinghao.

  The concubine Jin on the side smiled sweetly and said, "Sister...forget it, this is their servant's business, let them go."

Concubine Liu said: "Of course, let them go. How can it be up to us ignorant women to decide the affairs of the palace? Now that it's all over, men can swagger in and out of the palace and hang around in front of us. A generation, and I have never heard of it."

  Yi Shiha said: "When Yuan Chengzong was here, in the palace... the ministers were allowed to drink inside, sometimes even all night long..."

  Concubine Liu: "..."

  Concubine Jin smiled: "Okay, sister... let's go back to the palace."

   On the other side, Zhang Anshi waited until Cui Yinghao's voice became hoarse, and slowly stopped crying, but instead of taking him away, he looked at him and said, "Okay, can we talk now?"

  Cui Yinghao put on a terrified expression and said: "Slave... I have nothing to say."

  Zhang An Shidao: "There is nothing to say? It seems that you don't cry when you see the coffin. Do you have to be sent to prison before you are willing to speak clearly?"

  Cui Yinghao cried: "What did the servant girl do?"

  Zhang An Shidao: "Collude with the White Lotus Sect to murder His Majesty."

  Cui Yinghao was almost paralyzed as if struck by lightning. He shook his head desperately: "This crime, this crime... this slave can't bear it, Duke Wei, please spare this slave, this slave is cowardly."

  Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "It seems that you have to be tortured first before you are willing to speak."

  But at this moment, a group of people was coming this way.

  It turned out that there was a lot of noise here, and the noise reached Empress Xu's bedroom in the distance. After asking the reason, and saying that Zhang Anshi had caught the person, Zhu Di immediately came happily.

  As soon as Zhu Di arrived, Yishiha, Concubine Liu and Concubine Jin all went to see the ceremony.

  Zhu Di said: "Well, there are so many people who like to watch the fun."

   Concubine Liu said: "Your Majesty... this... how can there be such a thing."

  Zhu Di just smiled and didn't say anything.

  Concubine Liu was too frightened to say anything more.

  Jin Fei said: "Your Majesty, all the concubines, please leave first."

  Zhu Di waved his hand: "Since you like to watch it, let's watch it. There's nothing wrong with it. It's strangely deserted in Da Nei. It's rare to see something lively."

  Concubine Liu and Concubine Jin stood by Zhu Di's side.

  Zhu Di stepped forward and saw that Zhang Anshi wanted to come to greet him, but he pressed his hand and signaled Zhang Anshi to continue.

   Zhang Anshi then turned his eyes back to Cui Yinghao, and shouted: "Cui Yinghao, you still want to deny it, don't you?"

   Cui Yinghao was scared out of his wits when he saw that he had alarmed the emperor.

  He stammered: "We...We...Why do you say slaves..."

  Zhang An Shidao: "It's very simple, you leave the palace every now and then, because you are in charge of moving, sometimes you have to go outside the palace to run errands."

   "There are too many eunuchs leaving the palace."

  Zhang Anshi said: "It seems...you want to deny it to the end. You really don't know how good I am! I thought you were pitiful at first, and I will give you a happy time, but now, it is unnecessary."

  This Cui Yinghao looked bewildered.

  In fact, this is a certainty.

  Since people suddenly found his head, and directly stated his crimes directly.

   It cannot be groundless.

  He prostrated himself on the ground and wanted to deny it at first.

  But then I became more and more afraid.

  At this moment, Zhu could finally say confidently: "I advise you not to be ignorant of good and evil."

  Cui Yinghao's face was ashamed: "Just talking about this, let's say that we have mastered the White Lotus Sect and have colluded with the White Lotus Sect...This...this...servant..."

  Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Then let me give you another reminder. It is indeed official business that you go out of the palace every three days, but you should return the money to the guards who guard the gate, right?"

  Cui Yinghao's expression changed.

  Zhang Anshidao: "Ordinary people, why do they have to forfeit money when entering and leaving the palace? There must be something that they don't want to be searched out."

Cui Yinghao said: "This... this is also a common thing. Sometimes... some things from outside the palace are brought in. Many people in the palace do this. Although these are all prohibited things, they still have nothing to do with the White Lotus Sect. .”

Zhang Anshi said: "Then what about gambling? You are in the palace, you spend a lot of money, you lose hundreds of taels of silver, and you don't even frown. Everyone says you are generous. You are not a fat job as a secretary. So Where did the extra money come from?"

  Cui Yinghao's complexion is getting worse and worse, subconsciously said: "How do you know us...we..."

  Zhang Anshi said angrily: "Now I am asking you."

  Cui Yinghao's face was ashen: "We...we came here because of greed."

  Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "If you are greedy for ink, it's easy to check. You just need to tell who gave you the money, and if the two match, you can show your feet."

  Cui Yinghao said: "Yes...we stole things from the palace, carried them out...sold them..."

   "It's even more impossible." Zhang Anshi said: "If you sell it, you will buy it. If you name any buyer, Jin Yiwei can follow the vines and find out the person. What's more, where are you selling and what method do you use to trade..."

  Cui Yinghao's complexion was even worse.

  Zhang Anshi said: "You can't tell, can you? Well, let me tell."

   Zhang Anshi said, and took out a piece of silver.

   This Cui Yinghao looked up, seeing this silver, he was at a loss.

  Zhang Anshi said: "This piece of silver was given to the guard by you, and... these were found from your dormitory."

  Zhang Anshi took another piece: "For such silver, there is a full half box in your dormitory..."

  Cui Yinghao said: "It's just... just selling... selling..."

Zhang Anshi said: "Silver and silver are different. Take your silver for example. Look at the color. There are some traces of corrosion on the surface. Do you know why? Generally, in my Daming, near the sea, silver This is often the case. This is because it is close to the sea, and many people will inevitably be contaminated with some sea water. Coupled with the corrosion of the sea breeze, this situation is prone to occur. In addition, most of your fine silver is made in Shandong. In Shandong, there is a place called Shan County, the county's silver refining technology is very good, the quality is very good, and the fineness is also first-class..."

  Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "And... the White Lotus Sect, a lot of silver found was after they searched the people's wealth, and then went to Shan County to smelt it. Cui Yinghao... No, this is also a coincidence."

  Cui Yinghao shivered and shuddered: "We... we... slave... slave will die, slave should die, slave will be taken by those thieves of the White Lotus Sect, slave..."

  Zhang Anshi smiled.

  Zhu Di's eyes also shone, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

  But at this moment, he said: "But... Cui Yinghao, you are not a rebellious party of the White Lotus Sect at all, the real rebellious party... is actually here..."

   Zhang Anshi said, Chao Yishi said: "Elder-in-law, help me get another one."

  Yi Shiha: "..."

  Zhu Di was taken aback for a moment, at this moment, he felt his head hurt.
