Li Deshan comforted Zhou Wang and immediately asked him: "Where is your home?"
Zhou Wang immediately replied respectfully: "As for my father-in-law, my home is in Mao'er Lane near the south gate, and I opened a grocery store there."
Li Deshan nodded, then ordered someone to prepare a horse for Zhou Wang, and then said: "You lead the way, let's go and get things done quickly, so as to avoid a long night and many dreams."
So this group of people rode fast horses under the leadership of Zhou Wang and arrived at Mao'er Alley in a short time.
When they entered Zhou Wang's house through the back door, they saw the wife of Zhou Wang's house standing at the door holding a knife and looking nervously at the people who came in.
When Zhou Wang saw it, he quickly stepped forward, grabbed his knife and threw it to the ground, then pulled the lady to Li Deshan.
"Father-in-law, this is my wife. She was responsible for guarding two felons just now, so she offended me. Please don't take offense, father-in-law."
Li Deshan smiled and said, "I am naturally happy that you are so cautious in doing things. There is nothing to blame."
After Li Deshan said this, he walked inside without hesitation, and the group of people hugged Li Deshan and entered the remote house.
As soon as Li Deshan entered the room, he came to the young master, straightened his face, looked at him carefully, and finally nodded.
This time, I finally found the real owner and kept him from getting away. I was able to go back and explain to the emperor.
So Li Deshan waved his hand to the people behind him, and those who followed Li Deshan immediately stepped forward and tied the two men tightly.
Li Deshan was relieved now that he finally caught these two people. He turned around and said to Zhou Wang: "You two have made great contributions this time. You want to follow me and continue to find a job among the secret guards."
, or do you want some silver to live on by yourself?”
Zhou Wang thought for a moment and realized that he had been on tenterhooks all these years and didn’t want to live like this anymore, so he raised his hands and said to Li Deshan: “Thank you very much, father-in-law, for your kindness. It’s just that we, husband and wife, have been on tenterhooks all these years and really don’t want to live this kind of life anymore.
Please forgive me, father-in-law."
That's what Li Deshan said. If these two people really agreed to join his secret guard, Li Deshan still didn't know how to arrange them. After all, these two people were spies under Wang Yi's command, and they had betrayed Wang Yi.
Such people are not welcome anywhere.
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions. If that's the case, I won't force it."
After Li Deshan finished speaking, he took out a few banknotes from his arms and handed them to Zhou Wang.
"There are several hundred taels of silver in it, which is considered as a reward for informing you this time."
After Zhou Wang took the money, he was extremely grateful.
Li Deshan then left Zhou Wang's house with his men and went directly to their secret cell in the capital.
This time, Li Deshan personally sent the two men to the cell, and then ordered people to keep them under strict supervision. Not only that, he also sent more than a hundred stories from other places, asking them to guard here with open fire, fearing Wang Yi's men.
They came to the rescue with evil intentions.
After Li Deshan finished handling the matter, he took his people back to the palace to report the matter to Jia Ke.
After Jia Ke got the news, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. This Wang Yi was the only unstable factor in the court. Over the years, he had caused many obstacles for him.
With Wang Yi here, Jia Ke was really worried about leaving the capital and leading the army in the Northern Expedition.
"Li Deshan, since their master has been caught, there is no need to hide them. You immediately use the secret guards to capture all Wang Yi's spies and kill them on the spot if they resist."
After hearing this, Wang Yi hurriedly agreed, but he was still hesitant about some things. In the end, he thought it would be better to ask for clarification.
"Master, some of Wang Yi's men are seventh-rank officials. We secret guards have no right to arrest these people."
Jia Ke thought for a while, and it was indeed true. The secret guards arrested some civilians and those who were officials had nothing to say. If they arrested officials, then the interests of these officials would be touched, and these people would immediately report to the enemy for impeachment.
Li Deshan.
Jia Ke didn't want to cause trouble. Even though he was the emperor, if so many people impeached Li Deshan, he would have to show his behavior to the people below.
"We'd better not break the rules in this matter. I'll write an imperial edict right now. If you arrest people with the imperial edict, those officials will have nothing to say."
So Jia Ke immediately ordered someone to write an imperial edict to arrest the rebels. After he read it, he stamped it with the Emperor's Treasure.
Then Jia Ke handed the imperial edict to Li Deshan, "You should stop serving me for a while. Finishing this matter is better than anything else."
Li Deshan passed the imperial edict with both hands, kowtowed to Jia Ke, and then respectfully exited the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart.
After Li Deshan withdrew, Jia Ke sat alone on the throne, knocking on the imperial case, thinking that this time, the power of the previous dynasty could be said to have been uprooted and he could sleep peacefully, but in the harem,
There is also an unstable factor, that is, the Zhu Lin family.
Jia Ke is in a bit of a dilemma now. He and Qin Keqing can be said to be a young couple. They have had a deep relationship with Qin Keqing for so many years. Although he hides his dissatisfaction with her, he has not yet reached the point of breaking up with her.
But keeping this Zhu Lin in the harem is a great danger. Who knows what she will do.
Jia Ke was not an indecisive person. He stood up and shouted outside: "Li Gui."
Li Gui, who took over from Li Deshan to serve Jia Ke outside, ran in as soon as he heard Jia Ke's call.
"Slave Li Gui, please pay my respects to Lord Long Live."
When Jia Ke saw Li Gui coming in, he immediately ordered: "Take the people from the Royal Horse Prison and go to Kunning Palace to capture the Queen's nanny Zhu Lin."
Li Gui felt a little scared when he heard that. That was Kunning Palace, the residence of Qin Keqing. As a slave from Wuyang Marquis Mansion, he knew Qin Keqing's majesty very clearly. Now he wanted to go to her palace to get someone.
Still very scared.
Jia Ke saw Li Gui's hesitation and was very angry, "What? You dare not listen to what I say. If you don't want to go, I won't embarrass you."
Li Gui immediately became excited when he heard this. What does this have to do with the emperor's order? Even if Qin Keqing blamed it, he had something to say.
Besides, if he doesn't obey the emperor's orders this time, he may fall out of favor with the emperor in the future.
Li Gui is not afraid of death now. What he is afraid of is losing his current power. Ever since Li Gui became Jia Ke's personal eunuch, he has tasted the feeling of being surrounded by everyone. He never wants to go back to being the little servant who no one cares about.
.
So Li Gui told Jia Ke categorically, "As long as it's Lord Long Live's order, I won't even blink an eye even if I go up the mountain of swords or into the sea of fire. Lord Long Live, just look at it, I'll go right away."
Jia Ke nodded and continued to tell him: "After you go, you must say more good things and don't rush into the queen. After you capture Zhu Lin, send her to the secret guard immediately so that she can meet Wang Yi's master and servant."
Li Gui listened to the instructions, bowed his head to Jia Ke and exited the Yangxin Hall.
After he came out, Li Gui's eyes immediately became energetic.
As soon as Li Gui left the Yangxin Hall, several of his confidant eunuchs came next to him.
When Li Gui saw them coming, he immediately ordered: "Go to the Royal Horse Prison to find one or two hundred strong eunuchs, and then wait for me at Qianqingmen Square. The Emperor has something for us to do."
After listening to these eunuchs, they naturally knew the rules of the palace, and went to do their own business without asking any questions. Li Gui, on the other hand, slowly walked to Qianqingmen Square alone.
When Li Gui arrived at Qianqingmen Square, he saw one or two hundred eunuchs hurriedly running over from the side door before waiting long. They knelt down together in front of Li Gui.
"Slave, please wait and kowtow to the manager."
Li Guijian and the others came over, nodded and said: "Today is the first time the emperor has sent an errand to our family, and it's time for you little monkeys to do your part. Follow me to do the errands in a while. Don't hesitate to follow my orders."
Li Gui was inoculating these people, telling them that this was the emperor's order, lest they arrive at Kunning Palace later, and Qin Keqing would scare these people away with a look.
After listening to Li Gui's words, the people below understood that they were working for the emperor, and they became more courageous.
So Li Gui took these people from the side door of Qianqing Palace to the Harem, and went straight to Kunning Palace.
When they arrived at the entrance of Kunning Palace, five or six eunuchs immediately came forward to stop them.
"What are you doing? Do you know where this place is? If you go further, the Queen will give an order for you all to go see the King of Hell."
At this time, Li Gui stood out from the crowd, came to the eunuchs, and said with a gloomy face: "I am here to do something on the emperor's order, do you want to stop me too?"
These people originally felt guilty when they saw Li Gui and others being so aggressive. What they said just now was just to embolden themselves. Now when they heard that Li Gui said that he was here on the order of the emperor, they dared not stop them, so they all retreated to the side and kept giving Li Gui Apologize.
Li Gui didn't have time to chat with them, so he just waved his hand and led the people into Kunning Palace.
After arriving at Kunning Palace, the maids and eunuchs in Kongning Palace immediately became a mess when they saw so many people breaking in.
During the chaos, a maid came out of the main hall of Kunning Palace. Needless to say, it was Qin Keqing's personal maid Ruizhu.
When Ruizhu came to the courtyard and shouted loudly, the maids and eunuchs immediately became quiet.
Seeing that these people had calmed down, Ruizhu waved her hand to let them perform their duties. Then he took a few steps forward and came to Li Gui. The Prime Minister looked at him and then said disdainfully: "Who am I? It turns out that Is it Mr. Li? If you don’t serve in front of the emperor and bring these people to our Kunning Palace, you might want to rebel."
When Li Gui saw Ruizhu, he immediately felt that he was half a point shorter, "Sister Ruizhu, how can I have the courage? This time I came on the order of the emperor to capture the Zhu Lin family."
