The news that the eldest lady of the Guo Mansion was kidnapped caused a sensation in the entire capital. Zhu Tianjiang came to the Guo Mansion, and he still wanted to comfort Mrs. Guo. Moreover, the sticky pole has been reported to Zhennan Daying Feige.
Book, no one can say whether it was done by a spy from the Yun Kingdom.
In the upper study room of the palace, Emperor Chengwu's face was ashen, and several important ministers, including Minister of War Li Hong, lowered their heads and remained silent.
This morning, Tianqing Kingdom's secret agent sent an urgent letter. Zhou Yantian is borrowing troops from all over the Tianqing Kingdom, and he is very likely to fight back to the pass. The new northern camp led by Wen Ruhai is not stable. Can it resist?
The invasion of Tianqing Kingdom made Emperor Chengwu very worried.
Before the urgent matter at the border was processed, the kidnapping of the daughter of the Guo family occurred again in the capital. Emperor Chengwu was furious and scolded Han Cheng, the Minister of Punishment. He also ordered Han Cheng and Chu Yun, the nine-door admiral, to conduct a close investigation.
Guo Ying must be rescued. Once something happens to Guo Ying, it will be a heavy blow to Guo Tianxin in Zhennan Camp. Emperor Cheng Wu is most worried about the unstable morale of the army.
"Your Majesty, the four gates have been conducting strict inspections. I believe that Miss Guo is still in the city. However, in order not to alert the enemy, I thought it would be better to tighten it internally and loosen it externally, allowing the other party to reveal its flaws. Otherwise, the thief will be forced into a hurry.
Yes, I'm afraid it will~!" Chu Yun said this and looked at Emperor Cheng Wu carefully.
Emperor Chengwu's eyes flashed, "Nothing can happen to Guo girl, otherwise I will be sorry for Guo Aiqing, and I will not be able to see Mrs. Guo again. Chu Yun, I don't care what you do, I only ask for one thing, and that is to take Guo Aiqing back intact."
Home girl."
Han Cheng and Chu Yun agreed with a grimace and quickly retreated to make arrangements. This was not an easy job, and no one could guarantee whether they could be rescued alive.
"Li Aiqing, according to your opinion, General Wen can withstand the situation in the north." Emperor Chengwu asked Li Hong with a heavy heart.
"Your Majesty, most of the troops and horses led by General Wen were improvised by Zhu Tianjiang in Zhongdu and Shutian. Although some were added later, they were only 70,000 troops. Tianqing's troops and horses were strong, and Fang Datong guarded them before.
I dare not offend. Now that the coach has been changed, and coupled with the temptation of the traitor Zhou Lao, I am afraid that there will be a large-scale invasion. I believe that an order should be made immediately to dispatch 30,000 troops from each capital to support, in case of any unexpected events. In addition,
, To enter the pass from the south of Northern Xinjiang, you must pass through the natural danger of Hukou, I think that 10,000 troops from the suburbs of Beijing should be mobilized to garrison. Even if Northern Xinjiang is lost, the enemy can still be blocked from the natural danger." Li Hong bowed and said solemnly.
.
Emperor Chengwu nodded slightly, "Okay, it's time to play." Emperor Chengwu said, looking at several other important ministers, "Although the Tianqing Kingdom has strong men and horses, they are extremely chaotic internally. The six Khans are united.
Even if Zhou Yantian can borrow soldiers and horses from this tribe, he may not be able to command it. Zhou Yantian's move is tantamount to inviting wolves into the house, and I am afraid that he himself will be eaten by others. At present, Dafeng, after a short period of turmoil, the treasury is empty and the hearts of the people are empty.
Unstable. When the army and horses are strong next year, I will definitely let them know how powerful I am Dafeng." Cheng Wu glanced at everyone with cold eyes.
"Your Majesty is wise~!" All the ministers and others quickly flattered him.
As soon as the ministers retreated, Emperor Chengwu rubbed his head and sat tiredly behind the imperial court. Just now he comforted the ministers, but the real situation was clear to Emperor Chengwu. What the Dafeng Dynasty lacks at present is good generals and eldest princes.
Although he was appointed as the head coach of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, Emperor Chengwu knew that it was just a pretense. When the war actually started, the eldest prince Xuanming had no talent for strategizing.
In Emperor Chengwu's mind, there was a suitable candidate, that talented Zhu Zhu who shamelessly asked to be whipped by the king. That boy could train a group of prisoners into a well-trained army in a short period of time. Just by virtue of this
There is no other general in the army who can match him. Moreover, Zhu Tianjiang personally killed Fang Datong, which was enough to shock all the major tribes in Tianqing Kingdom. However, Emperor Chengwu could not use him.
Ever since Zhu Tianjiangtian shamelessly asked for the king's whip, Emperor Chengwu thought that this kid couldn't bear it for a few days, and he would be unable to bear it and asked Prince Jing to ask for an official position. Who would have thought, Zhu Daguan is really calm.
, he just didn’t ask someone to deliver the message. Emperor Chengwu wanted to give Zhu Tianjiang a slap in the face, so that Zhu Tianjiang would be loyal to the royal family. Zhu Tianjiang was so serious, but Emperor Chengwu was in trouble.
The emperor cannot be allowed to put down his dignity and ask Zhu Tianjiang for help.
Emperor Chengwu raised his head in frustration, "Where is Wei Zhan?"
"Back to the emperor, Mr. Wei went to the city and said he wanted to personally investigate the affairs of the Guo Mansion." Eunuch Wei said quickly.
Emperor Chengwu was startled and then nodded. Emperor Chengwu looked at Eunuch Wei and suddenly thought of Zhu Tianjiang's move to a new house.
"Zhenghai, that boy Zhu Tianjiang moved to a new house a few days ago. Who sent the congratulatory gifts to the princes?" Emperor Cheng Wu said and glanced at Eunuch Wei.
"Back to the Emperor, His Highness Xuan Zhu, the Fourth Highness, has been busy at the Zhu Mansion. Of the other three princes, only His Highness the Third came to the Zhu Mansion to congratulate him in person. The other two His Highnesses have never heard of sending congratulatory gifts," Eunuch Wei said carefully.
.
Emperor Chengwu frowned, "Humph, this ### is still a bit short-sighted. If Xuanle, the third child, can subdue this crazy pig Zhu Tianjiang, he can be regarded as his right-hand man."
Upon hearing that the emperor called Zhu Tianjiang a 'mad pig', Eunuch Wei couldn't help but burst into laughter. Emperor Cheng Wu glared at him, and Eunuch Wei was so frightened that he quickly put away his smile.
On the surface, everything is calm in the capital city, but secretly all kinds of informants are starting to get busy. People from the Criminal Department, people from the Jiumen Admiral's Office, people from the sticky pole, plus Zhu Tianjiang all secretly blend into the crowd. In the streets and alleys, libraries and teahouses,
There were strangers wandering around everywhere.
After King Jing heard about this, he quickly went to the Guo Mansion to visit the old lady. He also ordered the palace to send more people to protect his little Yu'er. As a result, Yu Gege couldn't even get out of the door and cried anxiously in the palace.
The eyes of the officials and people in the capital were all focused on Zhu Tianjiang. In their view, General Guo was far away in southern Xinjiang, and there was such a big event in the Guo Mansion. As a disciple of the Guo Mansion, Zhu Tianjiang had to behave.
Who would have imagined that at the end of the day Zhu Daguan was carrying a bird cage and walking around a brothel with a group of guards as if nothing had happened.
Not only that, he also started fighting in several newly opened brothels, threatening that those brothels were his territory, and he would beat anyone who caused trouble to death. Good guy, for a while, there were rumors in the capital that Zhu Daguanren was frustrated in his officialdom.
We were ready to hang out on the street. Not to mention, many crooked gangsters came to the dock to seek protection. Those who were petty thieves, dug graves, juggled on the ground and were entertainers, all gathered in front of the Zhu Mansion.
.
Zhu Daguan welcomed all comers and asked Daniel to set up a fire in front of the door and give each person a large bowl of tea. Among them was a group of people Zhu Daguan was very interested in. They were a group of people who specialized in inquiring into privacy and spreading rumors.
These guys were Zhu Daguan's colleagues in the previous life, and they all belonged to the news media paparazzi world. Zhu Tianjiang took all these people under his sect. No one in this era knows the importance of the media. With a simple training, that's it.
A bunch of harmful people.
Even though Zhu Tianjiang was eating, drinking and having fun on the surface, he was very anxious inside. Two days had passed, and there was no news about Guo Ying. Zhu Tianjiang closed the door and couldn't help but vent his anger. He looked at
The room was smashed into a mess, and Daniel and He Yang did not dare to say a word.
Just when Zhu Tianjiang felt that he couldn't bear it any longer, the chef in the back kitchen hurriedly ran to the front hall.
"Sir, there is a letter in today's dish, and there is a bloody handprint on it." The chef didn't know a few characters, but he definitely recognized the word "zhu" on it.
Everyone in the house knew about Guo Ying's affairs. When he saw the bloody letter, the chef quickly sent it over.
Zhu Tianjiang was startled and grabbed it. Just as he was about to tear it apart, Zhu Yi shouted.
"Sir, wait!"
After Zhu Yi finished shouting, he waved the chef to leave, and only a few of their close associates were left in the room. Zhu Tianjiang endured the anxiety in his heart, knowing that Zhu Yi would definitely not shout randomly at this time.
Xia Qing lit a candle, and Zhu Yi nodded in admiration, saying in his heart that Xia Qing was worthy of being a veteran.
"Sir, please give the letter to Zhu Yi." Xia Qing looked at Zhu Tianjiang and said.
Zhu Tianjiang frowned and looked at them, not understanding what kind of trick this was. Although he was scratching his head like a cat, he still handed over the letter in his hand.
Zhu Yi took the letter, passed it over the candlelight, and carefully opened a gap with a knife.
"Why, are you afraid it's poisonous?" Zhu Tianjiang asked doubtfully. He was as anxious as a mouse, wishing he could know the contents immediately.
Zhu Yi looked very serious and did not answer Zhu Tianjiang's question. Zhu brought the letter to his nose, smelled it, and handed it to Xia Qing. The letter went around and finally fell into Zhu Tianjiang's hands.
Zhu Tianjiang also smelled it and found that it exuded a refreshing fragrance mixed with the smell of herbs. He couldn't care so much and quickly tore the seal.
The news that had been waiting for two days finally arrived, and there was still a trace of hair in the letter. Seeing this letter, Zhu Tianjiang felt much calmer. At least he could rule out being a spy of the Yun Kingdom. It seemed that the other party was really
It's aimed at him.
"You're paralyzed. Let me go to the Dragon King Temple in the city alone in the middle of the night. If I don't go, I'll break up my vote." Looking at the content in the letter, Zhu Tianjiang's hands trembled with excitement.
In any case, the other party finally made a request. If there is no news, Zhu Tianjiang may go crazy.
Zhu Yi, Xia Qing and others did not care about what Zhu Tianjiang said. Chang Wu took the letter again and roasted it on the candlelight.
Zhu Yi and others looked at each other, and Xia Qing asked, "How is it? Are you sure?"
Chang Wu nodded and said with certainty, "The smell of the medical clinic can only leave such a deep smell if it is absorbed by the paper for a long time."
"Yes, this letter comes from a medical clinic or medicine hall." Xia Qing nodded.
"I told you what are you doing? Hurry up and get ready. Even if you are adventurous tonight, I will go there." Zhu Tianjiang said with eyes wide open.
At this time, Zhu Tianjiang's heart was in confusion. Although he knew that they had found clues, Zhu Tianjiang still decided to go to the appointment.
"No, sir, you will be deceived if you want to go. Our goal has been narrowed, you must not go, we have to buy time." Zhu Yi said pleadingly.
"What if they tear up the vote?" Zhu Tianjiang shouted with red eyes.
Zhu Er clasped his fists and looked very serious, "Sir, you must calm down. Since this letter comes from the hospital, based on the direction and tracking distance of Master Lin Feng that night, the scope of our tracing is already very small. I will
Go and notify the people at Sticky Stick Office and conduct a thorough search of all medical clinics and medicine halls in that area. Don’t worry, adults, we can definitely find clues using Sticky Stick Office’s methods.”
"Sir, you must calm down." Xia Qing and others advised one after another.
Zhu Tianjiang took a few deep breaths and suppressed the trembling in his heart. He knew that what Zhu Yi and others did was right, but if the other party broke up, Zhu Tianjiang didn't know whether he could bear the consequences.
"Sir, the show must go on. We know you are very nervous, but this is the only way to save Miss Guo. Otherwise, even if you go there tonight, I, Xia Qing, guarantee that I will not be able to save anyone.
"Xia Qing said seriously.
Zhu Tianjiang looked at the sincere eyes of several people and sat down helplessly, "Okay, execute as planned. Also, tell my master the news immediately. Even if I don't go tonight, I have to ask him to go over and observe.
.By the way, use all the gangsters collected today, and we must let the other party know our intentions."
Zhu Yi and others nodded quickly and started to act separately. Before leaving, Chang Wu specifically told Daniel and He Yang not to allow Zhu Tianjiang to leave the house.
Zhu Tianjiang came to the bedroom alone. There was a row of crystal bottles on the table in the bedroom. Zhu Tianjiang began to carefully fill them with some black medicinal noodles, and said through gritted teeth while filling them.
"Paralyzed, don't let me catch you, or I'll blow you bastards to death." This is a hidden weapon invented by Zhu Daguan. According to him, it is a crystal grenade.
The group of paparazzi boys that Zhu Tianjiang just accepted are quite helpful. They can be found in teahouses, restaurants, bathhouses, bookstores and other places in the capital wherever there are many people. The only purpose of these people is to spread a message.
"Hey buddy, have you heard? Mr. Zhu Tianjiang received more than a dozen blackmail letters today. Some of them contain hair, some have women's jewelry, and some have flower cloth. They all say they kidnapped them.
Miss Guo. Grandma, what kind of world is this? Everyone asks Mr. Zhu to go to the appointment tonight, and if he doesn't go, he will break up the vote."
"Hey~! I've heard it a long time ago. The people in Zhu's mansion lied. They were all lies. Some of those bastards asked for money, some wanted gold, silver and jewels. Some actually blackmailed Mr. Zhu to write twenty poems for him.
.I heard from the housekeeper of the Zhu Mansion that he couldn’t see Miss Guo’s autographed letter and ignored it at all.”
"Haha, if you really want to go, it will be really lively tonight, and you won't be able to get to more than a dozen places."
These guys who spread rumors were all in pairs, and they made it sound as if they were true. Coupled with the publicity of the good deeds of the people, in just two updates, the news spread almost throughout the capital.
In a medical clinic in an alley on Huashun Street, the ghost doctor Zhuo Xing was so angry that his cheeks trembled when he heard the news. Regardless of whether the news was true or false, it disrupted his plan. What Hongshan wanted was Zhu Tianjiang, not Guo
The girl at home. If Zhu Tianjiang doesn't go to the appointment tonight, all their plans will come to nothing.
Moreover, several strangers suddenly appeared in the medical clinic this afternoon, all with minor illnesses such as scratches. The ghost doctor Zhuo Xing keenly caught a hint of danger. Zhuo Xing felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't detect it.
There was a flaw somewhere.
Zhuo Xing thought about it and decided to wait until Hong Shan arrived before giving up all plans and directly killing Guo Ying to silence him. Zhuo Xing didn't want to have all the people he had worked so hard to manage secretly exposed for the sake of Zhu Tianjiang.
