After the old man left, Zhu Ying thought deeply and called Uncle Zhang.
"Go find a way to find out who this old man is."
After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Ying continued: "The name Zhu Guorui may be a fake name."
"However, the surname Zhu should be true. He who came to Nanjing with His Majesty has such a high status and is about sixty years old. It should not be difficult to find out."
"After the investigation is complete, try to investigate the old man's family members as well. Including descendants, even if there is one deceased descendant, all of them will be counted."
After hearing his boss's instructions, Uncle Zhang nodded in agreement, but hesitated and said: "My boss, we don't have enough manpower in the capital. I'm afraid..."
"Don't be afraid of spending money, but you should also be careful. The capital here is not as good as the Western Regions. Your Majesty hates corrupt officials the most today. I'm afraid money is not so easy to use."
After Zhu Ying thought for a moment, he continued: "Change it to something like silk and satin, and make it more concealed depending on the situation. Don't let your own people get involved."
"Yes, boss." Uncle Zhang took the order and left.
The capital is not as far away as the Western Regions, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Relatively speaking, Zhu Ying has a little money and a network of relationships is more convenient to lay out.
But on the capital side, the Emperor is at his feet, especially the Jin Yiwei.
It is said that some ministers were monitored by Jin Yiwei, even what they had for dinner and what they talked about at night.
There are so many ministers who have died because of corruption and bribery. Everyone is so scared that they have to leave a suicide note or something like that before going to court.
Even if the money is placed in front of you, you may not have the courage to accept it.
If one is not good, I may not report it directly.
Bribery is also a serious crime. As of now, once bribery is confirmed, the chance of being executed is about 100%.
Although Zhu Ying believes that the old man and she are not biological grandparents.
But since they look so close, they may not be closely related by blood.
After finding out the identity of the old man, his life experience must have come to light.
It was too difficult to investigate before, but now that there are clues, it is no longer a big problem to follow the clues.
...
"Your Highness, what a happy event, a great happy event."
In the palace of Prince Yan in Nanjing, Prince Zhu Di of Yan is watering the flowers, expressing Tao Yi's sentiments.
Yao Guangxiao opened the door directly and said loudly.
"What a happy event, tell me." Zhu Di said with a smile, and at the same time waved his hands, and the guards and servants around him bowed and retreated.
This is the capital, which is different from Peking.
Although Jin Yiwei never monitors the royal family's descendants, it is still better to be careful.
Zhu Di knew Yao Guangxiao's temperament very well.
He opens his mouth and closes his mouth to say something treasonous and treasonous. If someone listens to it, it will spread.
Especially at this moment.
It would be bad if you let your father think wildly.
Zhu Di could clearly feel that his father was mentally crazy now.
It would be a shame if he really took back his vassal king.
Although my current position is also very critical.
But maybe my father's brain is hot.
After Yao Guangxiao saw that everyone had left, he walked next to King Yan Zhu Di and whispered:
"The people monitoring the teahouse saw an old man from the command room of Jinyiweidu going to the teahouse today."
"It didn't take long for Zhu Ying to go back."
In just two words, Zhu Di's hand that asked him to water the flowers stopped immediately.
He immediately asked: "Are you sure that's Jiang Yu?"
"I'm sure. After entering, I sent another person over to take a look. Besides, there were some strangers around who were staring at the teahouse. They must be the Jin Yiwei secret guards."
Yao Guangxiao said with certainty.
The old man was not involved in the conversation between the two.
Because they know that Jiang Yu serves as the command room of the Imperial Guard and is also His Majesty's personal bodyguard.
As long as his identity is confirmed, the old man must be His Majesty.
"God is really helping me. I didn't expect my father to find out about such things." Zhu Di said with a smile.
Then he asked Yao Guangxiao: "Have the things over there been properly arranged? We can't be careless about this."
"If it is really discovered by my father, it will have nothing to do with it, and it will be meaningless to me."
Yao Guangxiao replied: "Your Highness, don't worry, according to the current time, my people have already arrived there."
"You don't need to be too deliberate about this kind of thing. With His Majesty's temperament, he will definitely let the Jinyi Guards investigate thoroughly."
"Then our arrangement will work."
"It's nine points true and one point false. It's enough. If you insert too much, it won't be beautiful."
"As long as you give Your Majesty a thought, then things will be promising."
King Yan Zhu Di nodded. He and Yao Guangxiao had repeatedly confirmed the secret hand in this aspect.
A son is better known than his father. On the other hand, as a son, Zhu Di also understood his father's character very well.
Especially now, suspicion and suspicion are very obvious.
While Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao were talking in detail, a guard came outside the door to report.
"Your Majesty, there are guards in royal robes here to deliver your Majesty's orders."
Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao looked at each other and then said: "Let him in."
The guards in Jinyi came in and preached: "Your Majesty ordered King Yan to enter the palace immediately to meet the emperor."
"My son, I obey your orders."
Zhu Di bowed slightly, nodded slightly to Yao Guangxiao, and then walked towards the palace with the Jin Yiwei.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang and Jiang Wei had already passed Fengtian Gate.
Walking in the square of Fengtian Temple.
For normal summons and handling of matters, Zhu Yuanzhang usually stayed in the Huagai Hall, which is behind the Fengtian Hall.
"Concerning Zhu Ying's matter, we must investigate thoroughly and carefully. There can be no omissions or any clues."
Zhu Yuanzhang told Jiang Yu in a deep voice.
Jiang Wei bowed and said: "I understand that we have just found out that Zhu Ying's residence is in Huaixi. I have sent a hundred school captains to carefully investigate Master Zhu Ying's side."
The Baijin Yiwei were sent out at once, and Jiang Yu obviously knew the importance of it.
In fact, it is not very complicated for the court to investigate a person now.
Because of the restricted area of household registration, farmers are not allowed to move around.
Some people have never even traveled more than thirty miles from the village entrance in their entire lives.
Even if you are a businessman, you will have road guide records when you move around, and your personal traces are very easy to check.
As long as it is in the territory of Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Ying, including his father's trading route, could clearly check where he arrived on a certain day, month and year.
Just transfer the file directly.
This is why in ancient times, even if the wanted criminal's profile picture looked completely different, he could still be caught by going to sea to capture documents.
It is easy to narrow the scope of the search because population movement is low.
Unless you live alone in the wild and don't communicate with the outside world, then that's a different matter.
It was when Zhu Yuanzhang and Jiang Wei were chatting.
Nanjing City, where the Shence Gate is located.
Hundreds of Jinyi guards rode away on horses, whizzing away.
