Gao Jianling was sentenced to death and imprisoned in the Fusi Dungeon in Beizhen, where he was to be executed ten days later.
Mou Rong added a letter and sent someone to Kongtong Mountain to inform Dezhen that the murderer of his family of seven had been brought to justice.
On the one hand, Luo Sigong sent Pudu, Mou Ying, Mou Rongtian, Shi Yi and Baiyun Shuangjian to take charge of Zhao Nanxing's security work and protect him day and night; on the other hand, he stepped up his efforts to find Wu Kunshan.
That night, a masked man in black floated into the Fusi Dungeon Courtyard in Beizhen. The courtyard was guarded by eight guards. When they saw the assassin coming, they all pulled out their sabers and rushed towards him with shouts.
The masked man was as electric as lightning and moved quickly. He pinned all the guards to the ground in an instant. Deputy Qianhu "Ancient Evil Comes" Dianwei and two Baihu officers were guarding the hall, listening to what was going on in the courtyard.
The fight started, and the guys who were busy rushing out rushed out. They couldn't stop the masked man at all, and they were all targeted in the blink of an eye.
The masked man jumped into the hall, went down the stone steps to the dungeon, restrained the jailers, and took the key to open the door of Gao Jianling's cell.
Gao Jianling was overjoyed when he saw his savior. He looked at the other person who looked very much like his master and asked in a low voice: "Master, is this you, old man?"
The masked man said "Hmm" and opened the shackles with the key.
It turns out that this person is none other than Mr. Iron Umbrella, the Northern Martial Saint.
The master and apprentice left the dungeon, flew to the room, and fled the capital. Ni Tianxing stopped in a forest outside the city, took off the mask, threw it away, turned around, gave Gao Jianling an ear brace, and slapped him.
Gao Jianzheng fell to the ground, and the stars were dancing in front of his eyes.
Gao Jianling was stunned and asked: "Master, why do you want to beat your disciple?"
Ni Tianxing shouted: "Don't you know what you have done? You still have the nerve to ask your teacher. It is really unreasonable."
Gao Jianzhen thought to himself: "Master must have killed Li Rusong for me, so he blamed me." He knelt in front of Ni Tianxing and said: "Master, I know I was wrong."
Ni Tianxing shouted: "General Li was killed by you, what's the point of knowing your mistake? You actually did such an unscrupulous thing, which makes me so disappointed." He raised his right palm,
He continued: "I will slap you to death right now to comfort General Li's spirit in heaven."
Gao Jianzheng thought he would survive death, but he didn't expect that his joy was in vain. Seeing that his master was going to attack him, he didn't dare to resist, knowing that resisting would be futile and would only lead to a worse death.
Gao Jianling sighed and said: "My disciple deserves it. He can die under the master's hand and die without any regrets."
Just as Ni Tianxing was about to slap down his palm, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Master, wait a minute!" Han Yongjun was seen running closer. He and Ni Tianxing came together, Ni Tianxing asked him to wait here, and he
Go to jail alone.
Gao Jianzheng said sadly: "Jun'er, step aside. You can't go against it if you commit an evil act committed by God. You can't ignore it if you commit an evil act by yourself. This is all retribution for your father. Master, please do it."
Han Yongjun knelt in front of Ni Tianxing and said: "Master, the child is willing to die for his adoptive father, so please let his adoptive father go."
Ni Tianxing sighed, put down his slap, and said: "You two have a deep love for each other as father and son. For the sake of this kid Yongjun, I will spare your life for the time being. If you do evil again in the future, I will cut you with a knife."
The next morning, Luo Sigong learned that Gao Jianling had been rescued, and called Li Xiaozhong, the guard of Qianhu, Fusi, Beizhen, and cursed him. Since Mou Rongtian had to protect Zhao Nanxing and could not leave, Luo Sigong ordered Li Xiaozhong to be responsible for hunting down Gao Jianling.
Yan Shoufeng and the three masters, Kong Pang and Zhang, waited foolishly at Qingniwakou in Liaodong. Ding Nanyue Pegasus came to report the news. Only then did Yan Shoufeng learn that he had been fooled. He regretted it and immediately led his troops back to the capital.
Tian Ergeng was dressed in prison uniform and was being held in Tianlao. In a few days, he would be sent to Liaodong for confinement. Yan Shoufeng came to Tianlao to visit Tian Ergen. When Tian Ergen saw him coming, tears filled his eyes.
Yan Shoufeng comforted you with good words and said: "Don't be discouraged. Exile from the army is only temporary. My father will definitely rescue you and let you make a comeback."
He lost quite miserably in this game. Not only did he lose his position as first assistant, but he also lost his capable right-hand man Tian Ergen. But the big game of the battle for the state's crown prince is not over yet. He will continue to play with Luo Sigong.
.
At midnight that night, Yan Shoufeng was still awake, sitting alone in the Zhongyi Pavilion, thinking about two questions. One was: who could succeed Tian Ergen; the other was how to trip up Zhao Nanxing. Cui Chengxiu, the current deputy minister of war, was Zheng
Party members, as long as Zhao Nanxing is tripped up, Party Zheng can regain the position of chief assistant.
Among the twelve headmasters in the Dongchang, Yan Shoufeng felt that there were two people who could succeed Tian Ergen, one was Ding Nanyue and the other was Li Jinzhong.
In terms of martial arts, he mistakenly thought that Ding Nanyue was superior to Li Jinzhong, but he did not know that Li Jinzhong was hiding it; in terms of strategy, he felt that Li Jinzhong was mature and prudent and was superior to Ding Nanyue; in terms of loyalty, he thought that both of them were very loyal to him.
Zhongxin, but did not know that Li Jinzhong was an undercover agent of Jinyiwei.
Yan Shoufeng thought about it over and over again, and finally decided to choose Li Jinzhong to replace Tian Ergeng.
After considering the outcome of this matter, he began to think about the second question, how to trip up Zhao Nanxing?
Zhao Nanxing's parents are both dead, so he can't be forced to worry; he has a clear mind, and there is no reason to be corrupt and bend the law. Although these two paths are not feasible, there are two other paths that can be taken.
One is to arrest his family members and threaten him, forcing him to resign and return to his hometown; the other is to assassinate him.
Assassinating the chief minister was no small matter. Yan Shoufeng had no choice but to take this dangerous path, so he decided to attack Zhao Nanxing's family first. If this path failed, he would have no choice but to assassinate them.
On the morning of the next day, Yan Shoufeng convened a meeting of more than 20 foremen and foremen in Beijing in the large conference room of the East Factory and announced that Li Jinzhong had been promoted to the first foreman.
Ding Nanyue originally thought that after Tian Ergen committed a crime, the position of first team leader should be his, but he did not expect that Li Jinzhong would take it away, and he was very unhappy.
After the meeting, Yan Shoufeng summoned Li Jinzhong and the Four Musketeers of Hengshan to the Zhongyi Hall and asked them to secretly arrest Zhao Nanxing's family.
Li Jinzhong was afraid of exposing his identity and did not dare to notify Luo Sigong in advance. He planned to catch Zhao Nanxing's family and then notify Luo Sigong to rescue them.
He took his adopted son Cui Yingyuan and the Four Musketeers of Hengshan to capture Zhao Nanxing's family. Unexpectedly, Zhao Nanxing's family members disappeared and were nowhere to be found. It turned out that Luo Sigong had long expected that Yanshou Summit would make this move and had already killed Zhao Nanxing's family.
The family was moved to a safe place.
Yan Shoufeng had no choice but to take the dangerous move of stabbing.
That night, Yan Shoufeng went out in person, together with Kong Kong, Pang Jianfeng, and Zhang Daoqian, three men dressed in black and masked, and sneaked into the Zhao Mansion. He knew that Zhao Nanxing was protected by Pudu, Mou and his son, etc., but he felt that their fighting power was stronger than the other party, and he was not interested in the assassination operation.
Very confident.
The four of them lay on the slope of the back room and peered into the courtyard. They saw the lights in the study were on. There were four men and one woman in the courtyard. The four men were Mou Rongtian, Shi Yi and Bai Yun.
Yan Shoufeng didn't know the woman, but Kongkong did. He was startled when he saw her, thinking: "Why is she here?" He patted Yan Shoufeng and whispered: "Master Factory, I'm afraid Zhao Nanxing can't be killed."
Yan Shoufeng asked: "Why?"
Kongkong said: "Do you know who that woman is?"
Yan Shoufeng said: "Do you know her? What is her background?"
Kongkong said: "Her background is not small, her name is Tian Xiaofeng, she is the daughter of my eldest brother Tian Longtian."
Yan Shoufeng was startled, looked Tian Xiaofeng up and down, and asked Kong Kong: "Master, could it be the masked woman who broke into Dongchang Prison with Li Tianmu to rescue Mou Rongtian?"
Kongkong said: "It should be her."
Yan Shoufeng guessed that Pudu and Mou Ying must be in the study. The four of them attacked Tian Xiaofeng. Pudu and Mou Ying had no chance of winning and did not want to take risks, so they had to retreat.
Fortunately, Mou Rongtian invited Tian Xiaofeng to help, otherwise Zhao Nanxing would have been in danger. Tian Xiaofeng was very willing to help Mou Rongtian, and she readily agreed as soon as Mou Rongtian opened his mouth.
There is a secret room under the chair in Luo Sigong's office, and Chen Zhenshi is hiding here. The vent of the secret room is opened in a dry well, one foot square, and is sealed with an iron fence. It is three feet deep under the well, so it is very secret.
More than a month later, Chen Zhenshi read the "Compendium of Materia Medica" that day and found that it was recorded that crocodile heart, combined with Panax notoginseng and Salvia miltiorrhiza, had the effect of treating the heart vessels.
The Jinyi Wei Nan Zhili Branch sent people to the Yangtze River to hunt crocodiles, preserve the crocodile hearts in ice, and quickly send them to the capital. Chen Zhenshi prepared pills with more than a dozen medicinal materials such as crocodile hearts, Panax notoginseng, and salvia miltiorrhiza. After the queen took them, Chen Zhenshi secretly
He entered the palace to check the queen's pulse and found that the queen's heart pulse had improved.
Back in the office, before entering the secret room, Chen Zhenshi said to Luo Sigong: "As far as Pindao knows, there is a special kind of crocodile in the Yangtze River called Overlord Crocodile. Its medicinal power is several times that of the Alligator. Pindao wants to use the heart of the Overlord Crocodile."
Used as medicine.”
Luo Sigong said: "I will send someone to inform the Southern Zhili Branch to arrest and kill them."
After Li Jinzhong became the first supervisor of the East Factory, he could no longer take care of the work of the Yin Shou Supervisor, so he resigned from the position of the Yin Shou Supervisor and the eunuch and moved to the Dongchang General Administration. He also brought his adopted son Cui Yingyuan with him.
The next morning, Li Jinzhong was sorting out materials in the office. The door was open, and the supervisor of the Intelligence Department stood at the door, knocked on the door, and then walked in.
Li Jinzhong said: "Old Zhong, what's going on?"
Zhong Zhang said: "Our eyes and ears in Kunning Palace have reported that the Queen took the medicine prepared by Chen Zhenshi yesterday and her heart condition has improved."
Li Jinzhong said: "Do we still have eyes and ears in Kunning Palace?"
Zhong Zhangban smiled and said: "Where do we have no ears and eyes?"
Li Jinzhong wanted to know who this spy was, but he couldn't ask directly. He smiled and said, "Old Zhong, you really have someone who can place people around the queen."
Zhong Zhangban smiled and said: "You praise me, this ear and eyes were developed by Mr. Tian before." After a pause, he said: "If there is nothing else, I will go back."
After the bell master left, Li Jinzhong went to Zhongyi Pavilion to report the matter to Yan Shoufeng. Yan Shoufeng said: "This Chen Zhenshi has become a serious problem for us. If we let him continue to treat us, we will have to cure the queen's illness."
Find a way to get rid of it."
Li Jinzhong said: "It's difficult to handle this matter if we don't know where he is hiding."
