Chapter 1705 Hahaha, Pan Jinlian met Ximen Qing for the first time
"The servants in the Prince's Palace are definitely not normal." Yin Chang said categorically: "From the time I walked into his palace to the time I left, I have been carefully observing the people in the palace and the decorations, decorations, items, etc. in the palace.
Nothing strange; but the servants of the palace are definitely not normal."
"First, there are too many healthy women in the palace and too few eunuchs. Although there are eunuchs in the Joseon palace, they are not many. Most of the palaces use healthy women to serve as eunuchs, so there are very few healthy women in the palace.
Normal. But as the crown prince, the crown prince should be second only to the king. There should not be so few eunuchs, so many healthy women should be used."
"Secondly, there is something wrong with the maids who serve His Highness the Crown Prince. Although those maids are diligent and diligent, they are obviously not familiar with His Highness the Crown Prince's habits and often make omissions in their work. Although the Prince will not arrange maids to serve him in the palace until he comes of age, the Crown Prince
His Highness has also been married for nine years, and he should have been surrounded by palace maids. Even the stupidest palace maid has already become familiar with the prince's habits in nine years, not to mention that the palace maids who can be assigned to the prince's side must be very smart.
."
"Third, there are those local Korean doctors. The expressions on the faces of these local Korean doctors are not quite right. When they saw the imperial doctors of the Ming Dynasty coming to treat the crown prince, the expressions on their faces were very inexplicable. If they were
If they are worried about the prince's health, their expressions should be worried; if they are worried about being punished, their expressions should be nervous. But I can't describe their expressions, it's very strange." Yin Chang told all the things he observed.
come out.
"As expected of His Highness, he arranged for you to be the deputy envoy. After staying there for only a short time, you actually noticed many things that I would never have noticed." Chen Cheng praised with a smile.
It turned out that the reason why Yin Chang could be the deputy envoy to North Korea this time was arranged by Yun himself. Although Yun was determined that 90% of what Jin Chengjun said was true and 90% of what Zheng Yi said was false, there was still 10%.
His guess might be wrong, so he had to do his best to investigate the truth of the matter. The Jinyiwei side had already asked the new Jinyiwei commander to investigate, and he personally decided who to send to the emissary team.
After all, North Korea was the closest foreign vassal to the Ming Dynasty, and he was on a mission to visit the Ming Dynasty. The identity of the envoy could not be changed, and it could only be those few people. He could only make decisions from the deputy envoys and entourage. But the identity of the entourage
It was relatively low and many places were inaccessible, so the most important thing was to be the deputy envoy. Yun thought about it and remembered that in the Imperial College a few years ago, Yin Changlai had been praised for his meticulous observation, so he arranged for him to be the deputy envoy and shoulder the responsibility of assisting in the investigation.
The important task of the truth. Facts have proved that Yin Chang did not live up to Yun's expectations.
"His Royal Highness, there are few eunuchs, the palace maids are all novices, and the doctor's expression is abnormal." After praising Yin Chang, Chen Cheng began to discuss what this incident meant. "The palace maids are all novices, which shows that the original experienced practitioners have been
Transferred to other places; there are fewer eunuchs and more healthy women. It should be that all the original eunuchs have been transferred. They want to send people to fill them, but because there are few eunuchs in North Korea and there is no shortage of people to serve the king of North Korea, so there is no shortage of people.
We couldn’t get everything together for the time being, so we could only offset it with a healthy woman. As for the doctor’s strange expression, this cannot be guessed by just guessing.”
"But," Yin Chang lowered his voice at this time and continued: "If we recall what His Majesty said before we left the capital, we can think things through clearly."
"Yes," Chen Cheng lowered his voice and said, "If we consider what His Majesty said at the beginning, everything is clear. The palace maids and eunuchs were transferred because after all, they were close people around them, and it was very easy to notice the truth of the matter.
, they have all served the Crown Prince for a long time and are loyal to him. The king of North Korea cannot prevent others from visiting the doctor, so he can only transfer them all away, or execute them, and transfer others. The doctor's expression is strange, naturally because they know the Crown Prince's
What's the truth about sick'."
"Yes." Yin Chang also said, nothing else.
There was a bit of silence in the room for a while. As courtiers, they could not understand Zhu Fangyuan's practice of drugging his own son or eldest son to achieve his goal. Even if the doctors risked their whole family's lives to ensure that the medicine would not harm the body, the medicine
After all, this thing is different from others, and there is always the possibility of accidents. Zhu Fangyuan is risking the death of his eldest son to change his son. They really can't understand it.
"You can't be preconceived like this." After a while, Chen Cheng said: "Your Majesty, before leaving, told you not to be preconceived, so you can't think like this."
Yin Chang curled his lips. Chen Cheng had already believed it in his heart, but he still wanted to say something like this. However, Chen Cheng usually treated his subordinates quite well, and Yin Chang would not dismantle him. He asked: "Vice President, from now on
What should we do? We have met with the Crown Prince today, but the King of Korea may not let us see the Crown Prince tomorrow. Most of us will only let the imperial doctor go in to treat the disease."
"Since you can't observe the crown prince, let's look at something else. There are always people in the North Korean court who are close to the crown prince and are unwilling to change the candidate for the crown prince. They must be anxious when they see that the crown prince has not recovered from his illness for a long time. Let's make some remarks to make them suspicious.
Maybe, I will try my best to help us collect evidence in the future." Chen Cheng said after considering it.
"What the vice president said is right. It's just that you need to think carefully about how you reveal your words. You can't tell things directly," Yin Chang said.
They discussed how to reveal the truth, and Chen Cheng added: "In addition, the most important thing is to contact the Jin family. Jin Chengjun, a descendant of the Jin family, actually went to the Ming Dynasty to report the matter to His Majesty. How could Jin Chengjun, a young master, escape privately?
Yalu River? It must be because of the clan. So people in their family must know the truth, and they may even have evidence."
"I understand." Yin Chang agreed. Of course he knew that since the daughter of the Jin family became the crown prince's concubine, she must be the family closest to the crown prince, and therefore would be the most closely guarded family by Zhu Fangyuan, making it difficult to contact. But
He will not be afraid of these difficulties and will definitely get things done.
At this point, the business was over. Chen Cheng raised his head, glanced at Yin Chang, and said with a smile: "Zhen Xing, let's put it this way, when you looked at several palace maids and were laughed at by the North Korean king, you were observing them.
Really? I thought you really thought those palace maids were pretty."
"Those palace maids are indeed good-looking. I have never seen such a beautiful woman. But am I someone who can't tell the time? How could I forget the important things to do." Yin Chang also answered with a smile.
"That's all. Although we have been misunderstood by the North Korean monarch, we will not work in North Korea in the future. As long as we explain the matter clearly, even if the North Korean monarch still has knots in his heart, it has nothing to do with us. It's just your response to the North Korean monarch."
"Why did your majesty do this?" The answer was still too blunt. And the words were too impolite. Your majesty will probably reprimand you a few times when you return to the capital." Chen Cheng added.
"It is indeed a bit harsh." Yin Chang also admitted that he was not good enough. "However, under the circumstances at that time, it was too difficult to come up with a sentence that showed disdain for the Korean monarch without being harsh. I can only think about it.
If you say those words, even if you are reprimanded by His Majesty, there is nothing you can do about it."
Yin Chang's response to Zhu Fangyuan at that time, "Your Majesty naturally has your Majesty's intentions, how dare you make random guesses" was of course purposeful. He deliberately showed his stupid look in front of Zhu Fangyuan, so that Zhu Fangyuan would lower his vigilance towards him and reduce their investigation.
The difficulty of the truth. Although it may not be of much use, even if it can play a small role, it is still good.
"That's alright. After all, our purpose this time is to investigate the truth behind the prince's illness. Your Majesty will not be harsh on you, let alone erase your contribution because of this trivial matter. The reward will not be less." Chen Cheng comforted him again.
.
"I don't really care about these rewards. I just want peace in the world and everyone can abide by the rules. This is also my original intention of entering Lifanyuan to run errands." Yin Chang said.
"Okay, okay, look at me. I wanted to talk about something light, but unexpectedly I ended up here again. Stop talking. It's getting late. It's time for lunch. Let's go out for lunch quickly. But
Our expressions need to be disguised so that no one can see through them." Chen Cheng added.
"Don't worry, Vice President, I won't be found out by them. I feel a little hungry, let's go out for dinner." Yin Chang agreed with a smile. The two of them immediately put on good looks and left the house.
As expected, Zhu Fangyuan did not allow them to visit the crown prince Zhu the next day, and only asked the imperial doctors from the Ming Dynasty to diagnose and treat Zhu. However, the imperial doctors could not make up their minds, and after repeated discussions, they reluctantly wrote a prescription to treat Zhu's illness.
Since he couldn't see the crown prince, and most things were handled by Chen Cheng, Yin Chang was free. This was the first time he left the Ming Dynasty, and he was still a little curious about North Korea. He left the inn and walked on the street every day. At the same time, he also
I'm looking for an opportunity to see if I can meet one or two members of a family from North Korea. He understands Korean and doesn't need a guide. He can just pretend to be a member of a family from outside the country and come to the capital.
But he soon became bored. Not to mention the size of Seoul compared with the capital city, even the prefectural city in an ordinary place is stronger than Seoul. Yin Chang is from Jishui, Jiangxi, and the prefectural city is Ji'an City, which is not a good place, but
He felt that his home city of Ji'an was much better than Seoul.
"I'll have another day of shopping today, and I'll see all the northwest part of the city. After that, I'll only wander around the streets where the children of the Joseon family often go, and won't go to other places. There's really nothing interesting to see." Yin Chang walked on
On the street, I couldn't help but think about it.
After walking for a while, he felt thirsty. He was about to go to a roadside tea shop to drink a bowl of tea. Then when he walked to the roadside, he suddenly felt his face wet, and water droplets flowed onto his face from nowhere. He didn't know where the water came from.
He stretched out his hand and touched his face, then touched his hat, and found that the hat was also wet. Knowing that the water spilled from above had wet the hat, he thought to himself "bad luck", took off the hat, and raised his head to look at the top of his head.
.
But I never expected to see the slightly panicked face of a woman exposed from the open window on the second floor of the small building facing the street overhead. The woman looked pretty good. She glanced at Yin Chang a few times and said in Korean: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
If you don't stay, please don't be upset, little official, I will come down."
Before Yin Chang came to his senses, the woman had already walked out of the facade on the first floor, bowed her knees and said, "Bless me, my little official. I was blind for a while and never saw the passers-by on the street, so I threw a lot of heat at my little official. Seriously?"
It's my fault, please don't be upset with me, this little official, I'm going to apologize to you."
'This scene is so familiar. By the way, in the book "Water Margin", Pan Jinlian met Ximen Qing like this for the first time. Pan Jinlian accidentally spilled water on Ximen Qing, and Ximen Qing saw Pan Jinlian's appearance.
Find someone to inquire about the two who finally hooked up and became an adulterer. The current situation seems to be simpler than that in "Water Margin", and there is no need for the king's wife.' Yin Chang thought a little narcissistically. But it's no wonder that he thinks this way, Yin Chang
He was good-looking, and the clothes he wore could tell at a glance that they were extraordinary, and the social atmosphere in North Korea was more open than that in the Ming Dynasty. It was normal for a young woman from a poor family to fall in love with him.
However, Yin Chang took a few more glances at the woman and found that she was trembling slightly, as if she was scared. He immediately realized that he had misunderstood her. She must have seen that her clothes were not ordinary, and her family was probably rich and expensive, so she was worried.
Being angry would be detrimental to his family, so he quickly came out to apologize.
And then a man in his late thirties came out and confirmed his guess. Even if North Korea was open to the public, it would not be possible for her husband to hook up with other men while he was still at home. He was about to say that he didn't mind and didn't care, when he heard this man say:
"My wife stained the official's hat, so I apologized to the official. I also invited the official inside to drink tea, and asked my wife to wash the hat and return it to the official."
Yin Chang was about to drink tea to quench his thirst. He thought that the tea brewed at home was better than the tea in the tea shop. Hearing this, he did not refuse and walked into the building. The couple served Li You tea, and the husband talked with Li You.
The man took the hat to the backyard to wash it.
The two chatted and waited, but after waiting for a long time, the woman did not come out. Yin Chang looked at the sun and knew that it was getting late, so he wanted to go back, so he became impatient. Seeing this, the man who spoke to him said
He went in to urge him, and got up and entered the house. But something even stranger happened, and he didn't come back for a while.
Yin Chang suddenly became suspicious and felt that something must have happened. If he were in the capital, he would definitely leave. But in Seoul, he thought that as an envoy, he would always have some preferential treatment. Even if he got involved in something, he didn't have to worry; let alone being taken away.
He also liked the hat he left very much, so he didn't leave. He stood up and walked towards the backyard, but he saw no one in the courtyard.
Yin Chang was wondering when he heard the sound of water flowing in the east wing of the courtyard. He secretly thought to himself that he was overthinking and was really washing his hat? He came to the east and opened the door. He was about to ask when the hat could be washed, but just then
Seeing the situation in the house, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. What kind of hats were being washed somewhere in the house? There was only the woman just now. At this time, this woman had taken off only a small bellyband, and her large white skin was very conspicuous.
.
Yin Chang was stunned when he saw the woman glance at him with a sneer on her face. At the same time, she screamed at the top of her lungs and shouted: "Who's here!" She stood up from the bed while shouting.
Walking to Yin Chang's side, he opened his teeth and claws to leave marks on Yin Chang's body. And the moment the screams sounded, three or four people appeared in the yard.
At this point, even a fool knows that he has been tricked. Even though Yin Chang did not see these people who suddenly appeared in the courtyard, his IQ is certainly higher than that of the fool, and he understands that the woman in front of him wants to perform something similar to the Immortal Jump.
s method.
Although Yin Chang still wondered in his heart why this family who didn't seem to be very wealthy dared to use such methods on him, he would not just stand there and wait for traces to be found on his body. As he thought about it, he grabbed the woman's attention.
Before the man's hand touched his, he reached out and pushed hard, pushing the woman down, then turned his head and wanted to leave. At this time, he saw three or four people in the courtyard, his mind changed quickly, he picked up the stool in the corner and walked toward these three people.
The four of them started waving wildly.
Although Yin Chang was a civil servant, he was from the Imperial College, but the Imperial College at that time was different from the later Imperial College. Originally, during the Hongwu period, the Imperial College students had to take the test of archery. After Yun succeeded to the throne, other sports, such as football, were added to the Imperial College.
They had been active all day long and were very strong. Yin Chang was very strong, so these three or four people could not get close to him for a while.
While waving, Yin Chang shouted: "I am an entourage of the Ming Dynasty envoy to North Korea, not a Korean. If you want to extort my money, you have made the wrong idea! I, the Ming Dynasty envoy, will never allow anyone to
If you are framed by the Koreans, you will probably go to jail in the end! But think clearly." He shouted once in Korean and again in Chinese.
But the three or four people were indifferent to Yin Chang's words. They didn't say a word, they just surrounded Yin Chang and refused to let him go. Yin Chang waved for a while, his strength gradually became weaker, and the amplitude of the wave became much smaller. A man stood there
And to get up, you have to grab the stool.
Yin Chang was about to hit him with a stool. The man did not dodge, so he was hit, and blood suddenly flowed from his head. Yin Chang was a little surprised, and saw another person coming up to him. Yin Chang quickly waved the stool to hit him, too.
But the man who was hit earlier grabbed the bench and refused to let go. Yin Chang pulled hard several times but failed. Just as he was about to let go of his hands, someone kicked him on his waist. He couldn't stand firmly and fell to the ground.
The moment he fell to the ground, Yin Chang's face turned gloomy. No matter what the purpose of this group of people was, if his identity as the deputy envoy of the Ming Dynasty was known, it would be a big loss. Like this
No matter how he explains the matter, people will doubt him. If the news spreads back to the country, he doesn't have to think about his reputation. And a poor reputation means that it will be difficult for His Majesty to promote him, not to mention that His Majesty may also have him in mind.
Opinion. His career may be over.
But at this moment, when he saw him falling to the ground, his face was overjoyed. The man who took out the rope and was about to trap his legs suddenly became startled, and then he also fell to the ground.
