The main responsibility of the Jinyiwei in the capital is different from that of the local Jinyiwei. The main responsibility of the Jinyiwei in the capital is to supervise all officials, and suppressing evil spirits and those who cause chaos is only a part-time job.

Luo Zhai, the residence of Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, today Luo Zhai welcomed an unexpected person.

"Eunuch Zhou?"

Looking at Zhou Zhuming, Luo Sigong had a strange look on his face. As the commander of the Jinyi Guards, he knew the important figures in each palace. Naturally, he knew Zhou Zhuming, the internal affairs manager of Prince Zheng's palace.

"Commander Luo really has a good memory. He even remembers this little guy like Lao Nu."

Zhou Zhuming is smiling.

"Eunuch Zhou seems to have come to the wrong place, right?"

Luo Sigong said calmly, as the commander of the Jinyi Guards, it was taboo to contact the feudal king's envoys in private.

Seeing Luo Sigong's attitude, Zhou Zhuming smiled bitterly and said: "Commander Luo, I am not wrong. I have something to ask for this time."

As the internal affairs manager of Prince Zheng's Mansion, he shouldn't have come to visit Luo Sigong, but he had to come this time. Zuo Yifeng made it clear that he wanted to make the matter a big deal. If he didn't suppress the matter, it would escalate to the court.

If he goes to court, Prince Zheng's palace will definitely be punished. If the trouble is too big, he may even be deprived of his limited power.

"Eunuch Zhou, Luo is in trouble now. I'm afraid I can't help you."

Hearing this, Luo Sigong shook his head. He was now like a clay Buddha crossing the river and could not save himself. In the court today, the Donglin Party was gaining momentum. The first minister of the cabinet, Ye Xianggao, and the second minister, Han Xu, were both leaders of the Donglin Party. Donglin

The key members of the party, Zou Yuanbiao, Zhao Nanxing, Wang Ji, Gao Panlong and others, all hold high official positions. Zuo Guangdou, Wei Dazhong, Huang Zunsu and others are all in Kedao and control the court.

However, the Donglin Party is extremely xenophobic and denounces officials from other non-Donglin Party Zhejiang Party, Qi Party, Chu Party, Xuan Party and many other parties as evil parties, often suppressing and ostracizing them. In addition, the original leader of the Zhejiang Party, Fang Congzhe, was

Expelled from the court and without a backbone, officials from various parties joined Wei Zhongxian's command.

Since Wei Zhongxian became a couple with the Hakka family and was promoted to the eunuch Bingbi, the Superintendent of Ceremonies, he has become the most popular person in the entire capital. The dependence of officials of all sizes has greatly increased the power of Wei Zhongxian's eunuch party.

Nowadays, the conflict between the Eunuch Party and the Donglin Party is becoming increasingly fierce. Wei Zhongxian has been hinting that he will surrender. However, as the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Luo Sigong knows very well that today's world is a world of literati, and even the imperial power cannot compete with the world's civil servants, otherwise Emperor Wanli would not have been able to do so.

As for being forced to hide in the harem.

Wei Zhongxian is just the boss pushed to the forefront by officials from the Zhejiang Party, Qi Party, Chu Party, Xuan Party and other parties. With the support of so many officials, Wei Zhongxian is the leader of the eunuch party. Without the support of these officials, Wei Zhongxian is just a eunuch.

That's all.

Even if he really defeated the Donglin Party, Wei Zhongxian would not end well. Sooner or later, he would be abandoned by these officials, and joining the eunuch Party would be a dead end.

"What does Commander Luo mean by this?"

Zhou Zhuming didn't expect Luo Sigong to answer like this, and was stunned for a moment.

Seeing that Zhou Zhuming was still ignorant, Luo Sigong wanted to drive him away, but thinking that Zhou Zhuming represented King Zheng, Luo Sigong still said coldly: "Wei Zhongxian!"

"Commander Luo is talking about Li Jinzhong?"

After hearing Luo Sigong's words, Zhou Zhuming couldn't help but hesitate.

"Eunuch Zhou also knows Wei Zhongxian?"

Hearing this, Luo Sigong couldn't help but be a little surprised. Wei Zhongxian's original surname was Wei. After he was castrated and entered the palace, he changed his name to Li Jinzhong. However, he was not famous when he was called Li Jinzhong. When he became famous, he changed his surname back to Wei Zhongxian, so he knew that Wei Zhongxian was once called Wei Zhongxian.

There are not many Li Jinzhongs, and most of them are people from the palace.

"Commander Luo, Lao Nu once served under Wang Gonggong and has a good relationship with Wei Zhongxian."

A strange look flashed in Zhou Zhuming's eyes. It was taboo for the vassal king to inquire into the government affairs. As the vassal king's internal affairs manager, although he had heard that Wei Zhongxian was favored now, he did not expect that he could push Luo Sigong to this extent.

"In this case, Luo suggested that Eunuch Zhou go find Wei Zhongxian."

Hearing Zhou Zhuming's words, Luo Sigong was not too surprised. He just picked up the teacup calmly and signaled to see off the guests. The royal family's supervision of the vassal king was extremely strict. The long history officials and eunuchs in the palace were all appointed by the imperial court. These people

In addition to serving the feudal king, he was also a supervisor.

…

In the mission hall of Jinyiwei Yamen of Kaifeng Prefecture, Su Hao and He Liu were selecting missions.

"Brother Liu, Qianhu reported the matter more than a month ago, is there still no result yet?"

Looking at the mission card, Su Hao turned around and asked, more than a month has passed since the incident in Prince Zheng's Mansion. Zuo Yifeng had already reported the matter and escorted Liu Xing and others to Beijing. According to common sense, more than a month has passed.

Months should be enough for the court to determine rewards and punishments.

He has been paying attention to this matter, but unfortunately the speed of information circulation in ancient times was too slow, and not many people knew about the affairs in the court, so he had no way to inquire.

"have no idea."

Hearing this, He Liu shook his head: "The matter concerns the vassal king, so it shouldn't be so fast."

Not so fast?

Hearing He Liu's words, Su Hao sighed in his heart. It would have been better if it hadn't happened so quickly. For more than a month, he has been collecting information from the court. Although it was all old news from three or four months ago, it still didn't matter.

It can be seen that the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party have been fighting quite fiercely. If this matter is involved in the party struggle, it will be troublesome.

At this time, Jiang Shizhong hurriedly walked in and whispered: "Brother Six, Brother Su, Qianhu is looking for you."

Zuo Yifeng is looking for them?

Hearing this, Su Hao frowned, and a bad thought emerged in his mind. Could it be what he thought before?

However, after thinking about it, Su Hao and He Liu rushed to the attic where Zuo Yifeng was. When they arrived at the attic, Su Hao unexpectedly discovered that the two Zuo Yifeng, who had always been like two door gods,

Feng's bodyguard was missing.

"You are here."

Seeing Su Hao and the others coming in, Zuo Yifeng said calmly: "The case in Prince Zheng's Mansion has ended. The current King Zheng, Zhu Zaixu, was demoted to a commoner and imprisoned in Fengyang. The eldest son, Zhu Yizhong, was sentenced to death. The throne of Prince Zheng was handed over to a commoner."

The eldest son Zhu Yiduo succeeded, the prefect of Huaiqing was dismissed from office, and thousands of households in Huaiqing were fined thirty meritorious services."

"How can it be!"

Hearing this, Su Hao and He Liu's expressions changed instantly. They were not happy but surprised. Although nearly two thousand people died, they also knew that the most that Prince Zheng's palace could do was to be reprimanded and deprived of some of their powers. But now Prince Zheng

Being deposed and having the prince die was far beyond their imagination.

You must know that not many vassal kings were deposed. Most of them were deposed because of evil intentions. This time it was far less serious.
