The Most Powerful Man in the World

The court will disperse, where the cabinet office is located.

In a spacious and bright room, several patriarchs gathered together at the moment, each with their brows furrowed.

There was a sound of footsteps, and the elders looked up and saw Yang Yiqing, Wang Yangming, and Jiao Fang walking over.

Seeing a few people, everyone couldn't help getting up. After going down to court, Zhu Houzhao left behind Yang Yiqing, Wang Yangming, and Jiao Fang. The elders were naturally anxious to know what the emperor's attitude was.

Above the court, Zhu Houzhao broke out with thunderous anger, and even ordered a strict investigation into the case of assassinating Chu. Many people knew that if the case was really investigated, it would be very involved. People are implicated in it, maybe it will be a shocking case comparable to the Hu Weiyong case and the Lanyu case during the reign of Taizu!

How big the case is depends on Zhu Houzhao's determination to tell the truth. If Zhu Houzhao just clicked, then they have nothing to worry about, but if Zhu Houzhao really wants to vent his anger on Chu Yi, then even if They are afraid that if they are not careful, they may be involved, so why not let them care about it.

"Elder Jiaoge, Yang Shangshu, Lord Wang, where is your majesty..."

As for the meaning of the elders, Jiao Fang couldn't be more clear in their hearts, they looked at each other, only to hear Jiao Fang slowly say: "Everyone, what is the relationship between Your Majesty and the Chief Executive, I don't need me. Speaking of which, everyone knows that when something like this happens, His Majesty still remembers to handle it in accordance with judicial procedures, which is already a great tolerance..."

Everyone groaned in their hearts, and they couldn't help thinking that the generals in the Jingying and Tengxiang Siwei Camp were all the cronies placed by Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao. .

Thinking that when their civil service group was at its peak, if the military and horses in Beijing did not have a nod from the cabinet, even the emperor would not want to easily mobilize, but now, the efforts of several generations of the civil service group have been destroyed by Chu Yi alone, and they even have a team The soldiers could not be mobilized.

Chen Ding was selfless in his heart, and he shook his head and sighed when he heard the words: "Now I can only hope that Your Majesty will be magnanimous, otherwise, there will be many fewer officials in the capital!"

That said, but all the elders of the pavilion do not know the importance of the relationship between Chu Yi and the emperor. I am afraid that Zhu Houzhao himself is assassinated, he will not be so angry and angry, and a bloody storm is destined to be inescapable. .

Wang Hua sighed softly: "Forget it, as the so-called self-inflicted sin, can't live, the chief officer is precious as a one-word king, who has made great contributions to the society, and assassins the prince, it is not a pity to die!"

Chapter 2 The Millennium Inheritance of Tianshi Mansion [[-] more]

With the dispersal of the great court meeting, the civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty returned home, and in an instant, the news spread throughout the capital.

In the huge capital, the news of Chu Yi's assassination was like having wings, and it spread in the shortest time. It only took half a day, and almost everyone knew about it.

Regarding Chu Yi's assassination, the reactions of the people in the capital were quite unanimous. If I want to say what Chu Yi did, it was these ordinary people who benefited the most.

Especially with the launch of a large number of projects in the imperial court, the people all over the world have seen hope, especially the large number of water conservancy projects have changed from the practice of dispatching labor in previous years to the method of hiring people and paying money.

This alone makes the people all over the world unable to help but marvel at how many Chu Yi's ancestral halls have been built among the people when the Son of Heaven really reigns.

As the saying goes, who is good to the common people, the common people have a steel scale in their hearts, and the people in the capital live at the feet of the emperor, so it can be said that the information is the most well-informed.

Now that I suddenly learned the news of Chu Yi's assassination, I don't know how many people went to Taoist temples and temples to burn incense and pray for Chu Yi, and at the same time cursed those who assassinated Chu Yi.

On the contrary, when some powerful families and noble families heard the news of Chu Yi's attack, their first reaction was rejoicing in their hearts, but when they learned that Chu Yi was not hurt, they couldn't help but scold those who assassinated Chu Yi. people.

Of course, these people are not cursing, but complaining that these assassins were not able to kill Chu Yi.

Without mentioning the reactions of these people, he said that what attracted the most attention in the case of Chu Yi's assassination was how the bomb got into the hands of the assassin.

The Ministry of War's arsenal Qingli Division

The Qingli Division of the Arsenal is the place where the subordinates of the Ministry of War are responsible for the jurisdiction of the weapons and equipment in the world. Needless to say, the storage and transfer of the explosive bombs must go through the Qingli Division of the Arsenal.

If there is no arsenal Qingli Division nods, the weapons and equipment hidden in the arsenal will definitely not be out of the arsenal.

As long as you follow the line of blooming bullets, you can find out who is involved. Needless to say, the first is the Qingli Division of the arsenal of the Ministry of War.

Song Lan is the highest official of the Qingli Division of the Arsenal, and has two subordinate officers, two chiefs, and five successors.

Wang Yangming has always acted vigorously and resolutely. The next day, he dispatched competent people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple. The first stop was the Qingli Division of the Arsenal.

In the lobby, Song Lan, who was one of the arsenal's Qing Li Scholar, took several subordinates to face Wang Yangming, the dignified Duke An Guogong.

Wang Yangming was only about thirty years old, with a dignified appearance and extraordinary bearing. He was sitting there now, holding a cup of tea in his hand, sipping it slowly.

The number of two members, two principals, and five supervisors has been reduced by more than half. At this moment, there is only one member, one principal, and two supervisors standing behind Langzhong and Song Lan.

There was a faint cold sweat on Song Lan's forehead, no wonder Song Lan was sweating profusely. It was only today that he realized that several of his subordinates had not appeared for a few days.

As the chief official, Song Lan was facing Wang Yangming, how could he not be very nervous.

Just when Wang Yangming was waiting to send out to find the return of the few officers and officers, he saw a group of people appear.

When he saw the person coming, Wang Yangming narrowed his eyes and stood up.

If you look closely, you will find that the visitor is divided into two parts, one of which is dressed in brocade clothes, needless to say it is the brocade guard led by Qian Ning.

As for the other part, it is the Dongchang Fanzi led by Cao Shaoqin.

After Chu Yi, Cao Shaoqin was in charge of the East Factory. As a slave of the emperor's family, Cao Shaoqin was naturally not qualified to go to the court, so Cao Shaoqin did not participate in the great court meeting.

But Cao Shaoqin, as the servant of the emperor's family, can be said to be one of the first people to know the news of Chu Yi's assassination. Even the emperor got the news through the hands of Dongchang and Jinyiwei.

The Son of Heaven ordered Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning to jointly investigate the case of assassinating Chu. No matter what the relationship between Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning was, the two had to work together.

The relationship between Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning is actually not harmonious, which is not surprising at all. Even though Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning are both bound by Chu Yi, the relationship between the two is very rigid. On the one hand, it is because of their personalities. On the one hand, this is also the case.

Whether it is Dongchang or Jinyiwei, they are both intelligence agencies. The two are naturally two sides of the competition. The relationship between the commanders of Jinyiwei and Dongchangchang will not be very good. If the relationship between the two is very harmonious, I am afraid that the emperor will not agree.

Now Dongchang and Jin Yiwei have been ordered to investigate the assassination case.

Qian Ning first bowed to Wang Yangming and said, "I have seen Duke An Guogong before!"

Wang Yangming said with a smile, "Commander Qian doesn't need to be too polite!"

Cao Shaoqin nodded at Wang Yangming and said, "Gong An, our family is polite!"

Wang Yangming nodded and said, "Eunuch Cao is very polite!"

The three walked into the lobby and took their seats. Qian Ning looked at Wang Yangming and said, "The Duke of Anguo is waiting for the whereabouts of the officials from the Qingli Division of the arsenal!"

Hearing what Qian Ning said, Wang Yangming felt a move in his heart. He stroked his beard and smiled, "It seems that Jin Yiwei has already found the whereabouts of those people. I wonder if there are still survivors left?"

"Giggle, An Guogong is worthy of being An Guogong, you can guess the result with just a few clues."

Cao Shaoqin, who was sitting on the side, suddenly looked gloomy and said: "Those people are really quick enough to start. They are headed by Gao Qin, a member of the foreign affairs team, and the bodies of Qin An and Jing Cheng Hao Daren have been found."

Wang Yangming sighed softly, "Song Lan said before that several people have not come for a few days, but I guessed that they were just out of luck. People are already prepared!"

After saying that, Wang Yangming looked at Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning and said sternly: "With the power of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, in this capital land, no trouble can hide from you, I don't know how long it will take you two to find out Qin An. , Hao Daren and Gao Qin, by whom did they die?"

"Three days!"

"Two days!"

Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning spoke almost at the same time. The two couldn't help but look at each other. There seemed to be sparks in their eyes. It was obvious that the fight between the two was almost clear.

Wang Yangming was not surprised at all, he stroked his beard and glanced at the two of them and said, "Since this is the case, I will visit the two of you again in three days!

Here, Wang Yangming, Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning and others were busy picking out the enemies hidden in the capital one by one before Chu Yi returned. At this moment, Chu Yi had already left Shanghai County and was traveling upstream along the Yangtze River. Then enter the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal Line.

The mighty fleet entered the Grand Canal. After all, the Grand Canal belongs to the inland river. Naturally, it is no better than the Yangtze River, but the speed of the ships is much smoother.

It takes almost half a month to travel from Shanghai to the capital, even if it is to take the Grand Canal.

On this day, Chu Yi was standing on the bow of the boat, looking out at the steep canyons on both sides of the river. The mountains were tall and straight, the water was rushing, and the waves were splashing. Ordinary people would be afraid of such a scene, but Chu Yi was standing on the bow. His expression remained the same, but instead he looked at the big ship ahead with interest.

It was a large ship that looked quite unusual. Just looking at the size and size of the ship, and even the cloud patterns carved on the hull, all showed that this large ship was not comparable to ordinary ships.

Zhang Yanji was dressed in a Taoist robe, with rusted cloud patterns on it, and stood with his hair tied. He looked like an immortal and Taoist bone. Beside him, a young man was handsome, his eyes were clear and agile, and he wore a sword on his waist. He also wore a Taoist robe, but added Somewhat heroic.

The young man's name was Zhang Yongxu, and he was the eldest son of Zhang Yanji. On this big boat, several Taoists sat cross-legged, ignoring the wandering heads, as if they were on a smooth road.

The origins of this group of people are not small at all. There are two great families in China that have been passed down for thousands of years. Apart from this, there is no other family that can be compared. .

Zhang Yanji was the master of the Tianshi Mansion that day, the Daoist Daoist who was entrusted by the emperor.

This time, Zhang Yanji entered Beijing by order. As we all know, today Zi Zhu Houzhao does not like Buddhism, but in recent years, he has paid more and more attention to Taoism. It has to be said that Shao Yuanjie's contribution is indispensable.

In recent years, Shao Yuanjie entered the palace to teach the emperor how to strengthen his body, and to recuperate his body, so that the emperor could give birth to a dragon child and continue the royal bloodline.

It can be said that this credit alone is enough to make the emperor's favor for Daomen doubled.

Zhu Houzhao didn't think about immortality or anything. Influenced by Shao Yuanjie, Zhu Houzhao naturally knew something about Taoism.

In the lineage of the Tianshi Mansion, all the celestial masters of the past dynasties were entrusted by the royal family, so the relationship between the Tianshi Mansion and the royal family was quite close.

After an imperial decree came down, the real person Zhang Yanji obeyed the will of the emperor, brought his eldest son, and came to Beijing.

Standing at the bow of the boat, although Zhang Yongxu is over ten years old, he is still a child in the final analysis. Even if he has been by Zhang Yanji's side since he was a child, he has been taught by Zhang Yanji. He is smart and talented. The big ship, naturally, couldn't help being curious, and frequently returned to the Prime Minister to look at him.

While Chu Yi was looking at the large ship of Tianshifu, Zhang Yanji was also observing the fleet behind him.

It was really Chu Yi and the others that the fleet was too large. There were hundreds of ships. With such a large fleet, if there was any conflict, the Tianshi Mansion had only one ship. , definitely can't beat it.

However, although Zhang Yanji said that he did not see the identities of Chu Yi and others, he could be sure that this fleet was the imperial army and horses, and the original worry was naturally put down.

"open?"

Looking at the cloud pattern with a strong Taoist charm on the big ship, and then looking at the flying flag on the bow of the ship, Chu Yi said in surprise: "Is this the big ship of the Zhang family of Tianshifu?"

[The second one is sent. 】

Chapter Five Hundred and Eighteen The Ignored Chief Chu! 【1 more】

Lin Pingzhi, who was standing beside Chu Yi, couldn't help but said to Chu Yi, "Your Highness, do you want to send someone to inquire about it!"

Chu Yi shook his head slightly, and looked back with his hands behind his back: "No need!"

The fleet crossed the turbulent river section, and the water situation suddenly became much more stable. There were many mountains and rivers on both sides of the river and green trees. Although the Grand Canal has raised too many people on both sides of the canal, in some river sections it is is off the beaten track.

After all, the real prosperous are the nodes of some rivers. As for the long stretch of the Grand Canal for thousands of miles, most places are desolate.

Ships can be seen in the river, which shows the prosperity of the water transport of the Grand Canal. Since the day when the Grand Canal was dredged, Jiangnan and the north have been connected, connecting the north and the south. It can be said to be an imperial artery. Long.

Although the Sui Dynasty died for this river, it has been relying on Tongbo for thousands of miles.

If there is no dragon boat thing in the Water Palace, there will be not many merits of the common Yu.

Suddenly, the calm river in front of the river was turbulent, and I saw that the big ship in Tianshifu suddenly seemed to be slammed into the hull by a huge force. Moved out a distance of several meters above the water surface, and then saw cracks appearing on the hull, the river water poured back, and the whole ship sank by more than ten centimeters.

The big ship suddenly suffered this change, and everyone on the ship couldn't help but stay for a while, even the few Taoists who had been meditating on the ship were slightly taken aback.

However, in the blink of an eye, several figures appeared on the side of the ship in an instant. Zhang Yanji held the eldest son with one hand and looked at the surroundings solemnly.

Seeing that on the wide river surface, the water ripples, to be precise, the originally clear river water has become turbid, as if there is some terrifying existence lurking in the river water.

This sudden change naturally attracted the attention of many ships, especially the ship of Tianshifu in front, and the fleet of hundreds of large ships behind Chu Yi followed closely, causing many people to accompany him.

Now that such an accident happened to the ships of Tianshifu, although it was said that it would not block the river, it also slowed down the speed of many ships.

On the big ship where Chu Yi was, several generals such as Lin Pingzhi looked at the front with a solemn expression, and heard Yu Dayou looking around with a vigilant look: "Could it be that someone dares to confront each other on this halfway. Bad for the fleet?"

It is no wonder that Yu Dayou reacted like this. It is true that some people's audacity exceeded everyone's expectations. As soon as Chu Yi landed, he was shelled with artillery.

Those people can even bombard Chu Yi, so even if they make some noise on the way, there is nothing impossible.

Shaking his head slightly, Chu Yi chuckled lightly. The port shelling incident was nothing more than that. If someone really ambushed him halfway along the way, then the meaning would be very different.
