Eighty-eight, - Tongyuan Inn

This person who was called the Little Duke by Wan Yu was called Zheng Yanming. His father, Zheng Lin, was a rare person in the State of Chu who was named Duke. When the late emperor was alive, he held high power in the court and had many friends. The Zheng family was an old family of Chu. The ancestors of the Zheng family followed the founding emperor of Chu and founded the State of Chu. Zheng Lin even sacrificed his life to save the late emperor once, which was one of the important reasons why the Zheng family dominated the ruling and opposition in the past.

However, in the battle of Liuling, the Duchy Lord chose King Chu Mingfeng of Qi. Originally, the King of Qi was defeated, and the members of the party were naturally sent to besieged, and the beheaded. However, Chu Boxiong was grateful to the Zheng family for being kind to Chu, and was afraid of the strength of the Zheng family at that time, so he just took back his power and sent him to a small prefecture in Jiangnan to become a rich man who would not have to worry about food and drink.

After Chu Boxiong came to power, the Zheng family was still calm and no one participated in the affairs of the government and the country. They just started business in that small prefecture. With the connections he had in the court back then, the business was also booming.

When Zheng Yanming heard Wan Yu call him this, he waved his hand at him with a smile, and then said, "Master General, don't call this little duke now. If His Majesty heard it, our Zheng family will really be removed from the Chu State."

Wan Yu knew what Zheng Yanming meant when he heard what he said, so he smiled apologetically and then said to him again: "Young Master Zheng."

Zheng Yanming also smiled, as if he was very satisfied with Wan Yu's current name, and then said to Wan Yu: "There is a single business at home in Kyoto Prefecture, so I'll come and see Master Wan."

"When did Mr. Zheng come to Kyoto Prefecture? Why didn't hello to Wan so that Wan could fulfill his friendship with the landlord?"

After hearing Wan Yu's words, Zheng Yanming still had a smile on his face, and then said to him: "Mr. Wan is in charge of the Supervisory Department in Kyoto Mansion. Don't tell me, don't you know what I came to Kyoto Mansion?"

Seeing that his words were exposed, Wan Yu was not embarrassed, and then said, "There are a lot of things recently, so I didn't care about these things. How busy Mr. Zheng is, I didn't have someone to disturb Mr. Zheng."

"So that's the case. Lord Wan is still thoughtful. Zheng is here to thank Lord Wan."

The two of them exchanged a few more greetings here, and then Zheng Yanming said that

My purpose.

"Mr. Wan, I heard that Chief Zee of the Supervision Department has disappeared, and Deng Yue is the one who took Chief Zee away. Is this true?"

In fact, when Wan Yu saw Zheng Yanming in the office hall, he guessed in his heart what the other party was trying to see him. After all, this matter had been spread from the Kyoto Government Office. Although the specific content was only known within the court, with the power of the Zheng family, knowing that this matter should not be a problem.

"It's true that this is the case." Wan Yu said to Zheng Yanming.

"So Deng Yue is really in Kyoto Mansion?" Zheng Yanming raised his lips with a little smug look.

Seeing Zheng Yanming showing pride, Wan Yu realized that he must have been slandered by him. Zheng Yanming should have known that Cai Yi was missing, but he should not know that Cai Yi was taken away by Deng Yue. However, with the Zheng family's connections, why is it that Deng Yue is not clear about Deng Yue? After all, the Kyoto Government Office has made the final conclusion and reported it to the court. Could it be that the Zheng family has had a change that has made their relationship network in Kyoto Government unfamiliar?

Thinking of this, Wan Yu looked at Zheng Yanming unconsciously.

When Zheng Yanming saw Wan Yu's expression of confusion, he also guessed what he thought, and said, "The connections my father had established in Kyoto Prefecture back then would not disappear if my family was not in Kyoto Prefecture."

Wan Yu frowned and said, "So are you cheating me?"

"I dare not deceive Lord, I'm just confirming something," Zheng Yanming said, and actually bowed to Wan Yu, his attitude became much more humble. It seemed that he was really afraid of annoying the person in front of him. "I naturally know the news from the Kyoto Prefecture, but I'm not sure whether Deng Yue is in Kyoto Prefecture now. However, according to Master Wan's reaction just now, Deng Yue should be in Kyoto Prefecture."

Wan Yu sighed lightly, and did not deny it, and asked directly: "With the power of the Zheng family in Kyoto Prefecture, don't you even know whether Deng Yue is in Kyoto Prefecture?"

Zheng Yanming poured himself a cup of tea, and then poured a cup of tea in front of Wan Yu, and then continued: "I went to Mingjingsi before, but Zhu Li was very tight and he was talking nonsense, but he just refused to reveal any news to me."

At this time, Wan Yu also understood

Zheng Yanming went to the Supervision Office to find the real reason for himself. It turned out that he had hit a wall in Mingjing Office.

"It's worthy of being Duke Zheng. Zhu Li is so indifferent to the situation. If you don't send you to the prison department, you will be considered as giving you face." Wan Yu sneered.

The official prison department mentioned by Wan Yu was originally a department directly under the Supervision Department, which specifically detained some important prisoners. In the 15th year of the Dali period, after the establishment of the Yasi Prefecture, Chu Boxiong assigned the official prison department to the eight internal departments of the Yasi Prefecture, specializing in the criminal prison. No one who entered the room could be fully obtained.

However, this prison guard is extremely mysterious. No one except the Dadu guard of the Yashi City, no one knows where the prison guard of the Yashi City is. Some speculates that it is in the office residence of Mingjing and Xuanjing guards, and some speculates that it is in the Liang Palace. However, no matter Chu Boxiong, Chu Boyu, and even Chu Ci later gave an accurate answer.

When Zheng Yanming heard the "Prison Office of the Mansion", he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was interested in it.

"I heard that this prison guard is extremely mysterious. No one knows its specific location. This prison guard originally belonged to the Supervision guard..." Zheng Yanming stopped here and stared at Wan Yu.

Wan Yu snorted coldly, and then said, "Young Master Zheng has said that the prison guards are mysterious. Since they are mysterious, how can I know where it is? And don't want to use the relationship between the Zheng family to inquire about this matter, because the results I get are the same as what I gave you."

Zheng Yan knew that he could not get any news from Wan Yu, so he took a sip of tea and looked thoughtfully into the distance.

"In addition, I know that your Zheng family wants to make a comeback, but I also advise you not to attack the Prison Office. After the establishment of the Yashima Capital Office, Your Majesty will re-establish the Prison Office. It is hard to say whether the Prison Office is in Kyoto Prefecture or not, let alone if you really dare to attack the Prison Office, do you think that the person in the palace can still keep your Zheng family?"

Zheng Yanming was still in a state of silence, and seemed not to listen to Wan Yu's words at all.
