Chapter 9: Take the initiative to attack (1)
Zhu Yinglong's nerves have been very tight these days. Although the center of the struggle is not Kaifeng, it is him, the King of Xin, who is in the whirlpool. Chen Xi wants to save him. The reason for the attack on the Bailian Sect's headquarters in Shandong needs to be investigated. Is it a traitor to the Bailian Sect itself or the Li Guoyong mentioned by Xu Ruying. All kinds of complicated things happened one after another, which made him suddenly distracted when teaching Huang Zongxi and the others, and then left the class for no reason. Such things have happened several times, which made Huang Zongxi and the others start to get nervous. They don't know what happened to King of Xin, and they dare not ask more. Fortunately, this phenomenon did not happen for a long time, and it took one or two days to pass. Everyone saw that he returned to normal, so they no longer worried.
It is said that waiting for the result is a torture, which is not bad at all. After spending a day and a night in peace, I finally received a message from Zhou Huaian that the Dongchang sent someone to hand over a prisoner to the Ministry of Justice. However, after Zhou Huaian's careful investigation, the Ministry of Justice was not as tight as the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang, so I didn't spend much effort to figure out that the prisoner was not Chen Xi. The so-called transfer was just a cover. In other words, Chen Xi had never left the Dongchang at all, and should have been detained in a place in the Dongchang for torture.
When the news came, Zhu Yinglong was mixed with joy and sorrow. He was happy that Dongchang actually used such a big smoke screen to send the Ministry of Justice to the front, hiding behind, and changing at any time when he advanced and retreated. He was worried that Chenxi people were almost middle-aged. It has been very hard to follow him around the world for more than half a year. Although he did not have any chronic diseases, his physical and mental health were far inferior to young people. He was really worried that he could not bear the tortures of Dongchang. The eunuchs in the "kitchen" were all perverted and inhumane.
"Prince, have a cup of ginseng tea. You have been frowning for a day, be careful of your health." Yanhong stood beside Zhu Yinglong and said.
Zhu Yinglong glanced at the ginseng tea on the table and smiled bitterly: "I am not that delicate. You should bring this ginseng tea to Princess Xu. She is pregnant and has not been in a good mood recently. She has lost a lot of weight. It is time to make up for it."
"Don't worry, Prince. Yanhong has ordered people to stew chicken soup with ginseng and send it to Sister Ruying." Yanhong showed her teeth and smiled slightly.
"Your Majesty, Yan Peiwei and the other five are here, and they are waiting outside the door." At this time, Xu Yingyuan walked in and bowed.
"Let them come in." Zhu Yinglong ordered, then walked to the main seat and sat down.
"Yanhong won't disturb the prince anymore. The prince remembers to drink the ginseng tea while it's hot, and Yanhong will leave first." Yanhong knew that Zhu Yinglong had something to do, so he hurriedly stepped down.
Zhu Yinglong nodded at her signal.
Yan Peiwei, Yang Nianru, Ma Jie, Chen Yang, and Zhou Wenyuan stood in front of Zhu Yinglong and bowed and said, "Caomin Yan Peiwei, Yang Nianru, Ma Jie, Chen Yang, Zhou Wenyuan met Prince Xin."
"Is the five heroes used to living in this villa?" Zhu Yinglong stood up and asked with a smile.
"Thank you for your concern, my brothers and five are very used to living here." Yan Peiwei was the leader of the five of them, so he replied on behalf of the five of them.
"You five families suddenly disappeared overnight. The people of Suzhou thought you were secretly killed by the eunuch party and built a tomb for you at the foot of Huqiu Mountain. Your righteous deeds have become famous all over the world." Zhu Yinglong said while observing the expressions of the five people to see if they are talented.
Yan Peiwei and Yang Nianru's body shook slightly, and a look of surprise flashed on his face, and he quickly returned to calm. Ma Jie remained motionless. It seemed that all this was not his business. Chen Yang showed joy, but he was still calm. Zhou Wenyuan met Zhu Yinglong's eyes and observed him, as if he had guessed the real purpose of Zhu Yinglong's words.
"Eunuchs are ruining the country. Even if my brother does not take the lead in this matter, there will be others who will take the lead. The people of Suzhou love my brother so much." Yan Peiwei said.
Zhu Yinglong had just observed the five people, and had a conspiracy in his mind, and asked, "What are the plans for the future?"
"Prince..." Chen Yang blurted out anxiously, but Yang Nianru pulled the corner of his clothes and did not continue to say anything.
"We and the five others are saved by the prince, so we want to serve under the prince's command. I hope the prince will take it in." Yan Peiwei led the five people and bowed.
"I don't know what skills the five of you have and what can you do for me?" Zhu Yinglong asked with a smile.
"The grass people still have some strength and have practiced martial arts for a few days."
"Caomin worked as a carpenter for a few days when he was at home."
"Caomin is a blacksmith."
"Caomin makes firecrackers at home."
"Caomin has been reading books for a few years, but later his family has fallen into decline. He makes a living by copying calligraphy and paintings, writing letters and fortune-telling."
Zhu Yinglong was amused when he heard them introduce himself like this. Although the skills of these five people seemed insignificant, they were good at guiding and using them, and they were all quite wise, so it was not difficult to become the top talents in their respective industries. Especially Yan Peiwei, the largest of the five people, was only in his early thirties and was very plastic, so he nodded and said, "Yan Peiwei!"
"The grass people are here!"
"You immediately hide your identity and leave for Tongzhou to go to Tongyuan pawn shop. Just say 'The moon is in the sky' and someone will arrange for you." Yan Peiwei stood aside in response.
"Yang Nianru!"
"The grass people are here!"
"You go and report to Princess Zhou. Even if I ask you to go, she will understand." Yang Nianru responded happily and stood beside Yan Peiwei.
"Ma Jie!"
"The grass people are here."
"You are under the jurisdiction of Princess Tian, go." Ma Jie's mouth twitched a lot, and stood aside in response.
"Chen Yang!"
"The grass people are here!"
"You go to the Firearm Design and Research Bureau of the Military Academy. Your boss is Qu Shisi and the foreign priest Ai Ruluo. Do you know?" Chen Yang heard that there was a foreigner with blue eyes and yellow hair among his boss. His happiness disappeared halfway, but his own people were under the roof and could only respond.
"Zhou Qiyuan!"
"Students are here!"
"Will you fake it?" Zhu Yinglong did not directly assign him to whom he was subordinate, but asked him a question.
"Prince forgives the crime. Students are forced to make a living." Zhou Qiyuan replied calmly. He seemed to have known that Zhu Yinglong would not make things difficult for him.
"Very good, you'll stay with me. The Shi Dian Book will tell you what you do." Zhu Yinglong arranged the five people in a blink of an eye and let them go in their own positions.
