This Jin Yiwei is obviously super strong but goes too far. Chapter 475: Behind the Purpose
Lu Hanjiang's promotion to the commander of the Jinyiwei was not only expected by the public, but at least it was natural. At least he did not need to follow Meng Yuan's old path. Now the brothers of the Jinyiwei basically obey him.
After all, when Jinyiwei is promoted from a small banner official to Qianshi, the most important thing along the way is martial arts. But from Qianshi and up, Tongzhi relies on the trust of the Jinyiwei commander, and the commander needs to rely on
Your Majesty has the utmost trust.
These last two steps cannot be accomplished by martial arts alone. Opportunity is required. For this point, among the entire Jinyi Guards, Lu Hanjiang is destined to do so, and no one can surpass him.
Of course, although Lu Hanjiang has always been confident, he has not yet reached the level where he is the biggest in the world and he is the second best. As soon as the court's decree came, his faint eyes fell on Qiu Qingyun.
Tongzhi Jinyiwei is the right-hand man of the commander. Tongzhi Qiu also killed people in the arena with Mr. Meng back then. It can be said that he is one of the most trusted people by the old man.
Wu Qiming knew that the two adults had something to discuss, so he took the initiative to retreat. As soon as he left, Lu Hanjiang asked: "Master Qiu, the news about the old man has been sent back a long time ago, right?"
"...Haha, as expected, I still can't hide it from Mr. Lu."
The sadness on Qiu Qingyun's face disappeared as if it had never appeared before. He asked curiously: "How can Master Lu be so sure that Master Meng is fine?"
Lu Hanjiang raised the imperial edict in his hand and said calmly: "I know how much I am worth. Do you think a mere consort can get much respect from His Majesty? I killed Zou Ji casually.
, His Majesty not only did not get angry, but even sealed it. After much deliberation, this is the only possibility."
"Master Lu is quick in thinking, and the subordinates admire him." Qiu Qingyun praised.
After receiving the exact answer, Lu Hanjiang felt relieved and said angrily: "Babaili hastily deceived me from Miao territory to Beijing. When did the old man like to play this kind of fake death trick?"
"It's not that Mr. Meng refused to explain it, but in fact, I really didn't expect that such a situation would happen in the North this time." Qiu Qingyun sighed and shook his head. He said: "Calling Mr. Meng back to Beijing is actually a helpless move. Mr. Meng has been poisoned by a strange poison. Now,
You must rest peacefully."
"Strange poison? It's from Xuantian's teaching?"
Lu Hanjiang's eyes narrowed slightly. When he mentioned Xuantian Sect and Qi Po, the first thing he thought of was related to the Crown Princess. Indeed, if those people wanted to plot against the old man, using poison would be quick and most effective.
Thinking of this, Lu Hanjiang immediately took out two small porcelain bottles, handed them to Qiu Qingyun and said: "If it is for other reasons, I may not be able to do anything, but if it is poison, I have a method that can cure hundreds of poisons. As for how to use it -"
After Lu Hanjiang explained the uses of these two bottles of poisonous blood, Qiu Qingyun took them with a solemn expression and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, my subordinate will inform Mr. Meng immediately about this matter."
"Excuse me, Mr. Qiu," Lu Hanjiang weighed the imperial edict in his hand and said slowly: "The old man has not reached the age where he can no longer walk. Please let him recover from his injuries quickly, otherwise he really expects me to do it for him.
This command makes it impossible to go down now."
"Why not? Mr. Lu has always been Mr. Meng's favorite successor." Qiu Qingyun smiled gently.
"Wait a minute, isn't this what you had in mind from the beginning?" Lu Hanjiang glared at Qiu Qingyun.
"Master Lu, if the brothers of Jinyiwei want to avoid ending up in the future, you will have to take this seat sooner or later. Master Meng just moved the date forward a little."
Qiu Qingyun put away the two porcelain vases, looked at the plaque with the words "Serve the Country with Loyalty" and the statue of Wu Mu at the back of the hall, and sighed: "Today's matter, if there were no adults here, even if Zou Ji couldn't succeed, it should be thrown away.
The Jin Yiwei has also been lost, so it can be seen that Mr. Meng did have a unique vision when he chose you."
"Haha." Lu Hanjiang twitched his lips, obviously not in a good mood.
...
At the same time, in the Zixiao Palace of the Imperial City, the old emperor in Jinluo Immortal Robe was sitting on a lotus futon. Hearing the report from the little eunuch below, he couldn't help laughing.
"Oh? He actually asked people to go to Xichang to search his house? Hahaha, I thought he was just talking, but I didn't expect that this kid is really ruthless, not bad."
The old emperor beamed with joy, shook the jade whisk in his hand, looked at the kind-faced old eunuch beside him, and said, "Cao Yuan, tell me, how is my son-in-law?"
Cao Yuan was the eunuch in charge of the Ceremony Supervisor in the palace, and he was also the chief eunuch trusted by the emperor. He was in charge of the expert factory, and the admirals of the east and west factories were all his godsons in terms of seniority.
"The son-in-law chosen by His Majesty is naturally an excellent one." Cao Yuan agreed in a warm voice.
"well said."
The old emperor waved the young eunuch who was reporting back to leave, and then asked: "Today, your godson met with a fatal calamity and asked the Jin Yiwei to kill him, but I sealed that kid. Do you think my decision was unfair?"
"Why did your Majesty say such a thing? This servant will not dare to die for it."
Cao Yuan immediately bowed down, grabbed the ground with his head, and said with shame: "It's all my slave's fault. I didn't teach him those things well, so I asked Mr. Lu to teach him a lesson. It's Zou Ji who committed suicide on his own, so he can't blame others."
"Okay, okay, I'm tired of hearing this nonsense," the old emperor said impatiently: "You are an old man who followed me when I was in the palace. You should know what's appropriate. You are just a dog.
You're having feelings, I won't punish you today."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Cao Yuan kowtowed repeatedly, his attitude was respectful and there was nothing wrong with it.
"But I also advise you to calm down and pay attention to your errands."
The old emperor gently hit Cao Yuan on the head with a jade whisk, and said leisurely: "The East Factory, the West Factory, the expert factory are not enough for you, the great eunuch of the palm print? If you insist on reaching out to the Jin Yiwei, that is what you should worry about
A place?”
"What your Majesty taught you is that slaves are all obsessed with ghosts." Cao Yuan buried his head on the floor and said in a regretful tone.
"Okay, get up."
The old emperor set up a fly whisk, held his handprints, sat upright, closed his eyes and said quietly: "Your heart should be spent mostly in the palace. The affairs in the world will be taken care of by the royal guards. Don't add personal grudges to official matters."
"Yes, this slave must strictly follow His Majesty's teachings."
Cao Yuan kowtowed twice more, and then stood up at the old emperor's command. His face was still kind, and he took a brocade box from the little eunuch who came in from outside, and brought it to him.
The old emperor asked blankly without opening his eyes: "What is this?"
Cao Yuan knelt down, raised his hands high, and said in a low voice before presenting the brocade box to the old emperor: "Reporting to your majesty, on the ninth day of this month, a Taoist who claimed to be the Immortal of Nanshan came to Zheng Guogong's residence and presented him with three elixir pills. I am convinced.
It can cure all diseases and prolong life, so he specially sent it to the palace as a tribute to His Majesty."
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" The old emperor narrowed his eyes, glanced at the elixir, and said sarcastically: "If I remember correctly, isn't Zheng Guogong critically ill? Does he still have the intention to use this elixir?"
"What your Majesty said is that Zheng Guogong only recovered after taking the elixir. He said that this elixir was a treasure of heaven and earth. He felt extremely guilty after taking one pill, so he presented the remaining two pills to Your Majesty." Cao Yuan said.

"Haha, you are indeed my good minister."
The old emperor kept laughing. After a while, the laughter stopped and he uttered one word: "Kill."
Cao Yuan lowered his head and listened silently. The old emperor said quietly: "Send the decree to Meng Yuan... Forget it, since the old guy wants to hide, let him hide. Send the decree to the new Commander Lu,
Ask him to investigate, not only Zheng Guogong, but also that Nanshan Immortal, none of them will be spared."
"My servant obeys the order." Cao Yuan bowed three times and retreated on his knees.
After Cao Yuan exited, the old emperor opened his eyes again and gave a disdainful smile: "A group of ordinary people dare to call themselves immortals. What kind of elixir can they refine with a mortal body? They are just deceiving the world. They will all die badly."
generation."
The old emperor breathed a long sigh of relief, spread his arms, looked up at the star map above his head, and said with his eyes in trance: "The world is ignorant, how can it know how far the way of heaven is, the world is miserable, people's hearts are full of demons, there are many monsters in the world, only the method of heaven and stone
Only then can you live forever and enjoy immortal blessings forever..."
