Chapter 517 The Millennium Inheritance of Tianshi Mansion [2 more]
As the imperial gathering dispersed, civil servants and military officials from all over the court returned home. In an instant, the news spread throughout the capital.
In the huge capital city, the news of Chu Yi's assassination was like having wings. It spread in the shortest possible time. It only took half a day. Almost no one knew about it.
Regarding the assassination of Chu Yi, the reaction of the people in the capital was quite unanimous. I would like to say that these ordinary people were the ones who benefited the most from what Chu Yi did.
Especially with the launch of a large number of projects by the imperial court, people all over the world have seen hope. Especially for a large number of water conservancy projects, the practice of mobilizing laborers in previous years has been changed to hiring people and paying them money.
This point alone makes people all over the world can't help but admire that the Emperor is really the Holy Emperor, and there are many more Chu Yi's birthplaces among the people.
As the saying goes, who is good to the people has a strong balance in their hearts. The people in the capital live at the feet of the emperor, so they can be said to be the most well-informed.
Now that they suddenly learned the news of Chu Yi's assassination, countless people went to Taoist temples and temples to burn incense and pray for Chu Yi. At the same time, they cursed those who assassinated Chu Yi.
On the contrary, some powerful and gentry families heard the news of Chu Yi's attack. Their first reaction was to be overjoyed. However, when they learned that Chu Yi was not harmed, they couldn't help but curse those who assassinated Chu Yi.
people.
Of course, these people were not cursing, but complaining that the assassins failed to kill Chu Yi.
Not to mention the reactions of these people, the most concerning thing about Chu Yi's assassination was how the explosive bullet got into the hands of the assassin.
Qingli Department of the Arsenal under the Ministry of War
The Qingli Department of the Arsenal is a subordinate of the Ministry of War and is responsible for managing the world's weapons and equipment. Not to mention the storage of ammunition, the use of ammunition naturally has to go through the Qingli Department of the Arsenal.
Without the nod from the arsenal Seiryoshi, none of the weapons or equipment hidden in the arsenal would have been able to leave the arsenal.
As long as we follow the line of explosive bombs, we can find out who is involved. Needless to say, the first one to bear the brunt is the Seiryiki Division of the Ministry of War Arsenal.
Song Lan is a doctor in the Qingli Department of the Arsenal, and is the highest official of the Qingli Department of the Arsenal. He has two subordinates, two chiefs, and five successors.
Wang Yangming always acted vigorously and resolutely, and the next day he transferred capable personnel from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple. The first stop was the Qingli Department of the Arsenal.
In the lobby, Song Lan, who was a doctor in the Qingli Division of the Arsenal, cautiously led several subordinates to face Wang Yangming, the dignified Duke of Anguo.
Wang Yangming was no more than thirty years old, with a handsome appearance and an extraordinary bearing. He was sitting there with a cup of tea in his hand, slowly sipping the tea.
The number of two foreign ministers, two principals, and five Jing Chengs was reduced by more than half. At this moment, there was only one Yuan Wai Lang, one chief minister, and two Jing Chengs standing behind Song Lan, the doctor.
Cold sweat was faintly visible on Song Lan's forehead. No wonder Song Lan was breaking out in cold sweat. In fact, he only discovered today that several of his subordinates had not shown up for several days.
As the chief officer, Song Lan was extremely nervous when facing Wang Yangming.
Just when Wang Yangming was waiting for the people sent out to look for those Yuanwailang and those in charge to return, he saw a group of people appear.
When he saw the person coming, Wang Yangming narrowed his eyes and stood up.
If you look carefully, you will find that the visitor is divided into two parts, one of which is dressed in brocade clothes. Needless to say, it is the brocade guards led by Qian Ning.
As for the other group of people, they were the Dongchang Fanzi led by Cao Shaoqin.
After Chu Yi, Cao Shaoqin took charge of Dongchang. As a slave of the emperor, Cao Shaoqin was naturally not qualified to go to court, so Cao Shaoqin did not participate in the court meeting.
But as Cao Shaoqin, as a slave of the emperor, it can be said that he was one of the first people to know the news of Chu Yi's assassination. Even the emperor got the news through the hands of Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
The emperor ordered Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning to join forces to investigate the assassination case of Chu. No matter what their relationship was, Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning had to work together.
The relationship between Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning is actually not harmonious. This is actually not surprising at all. Although Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning are both restrained by Chu Yi, the relationship between the two is very stiff. On the one hand, it is because of their personalities, and on the other hand,
On the one hand, this is also the general trend.
Whether it is Dongchang or Jinyiwei, they are both intelligence agencies. The two are naturally competing parties. The relationship between Jinyiwei commanders and Dongchang factory officials in the past generations has not been very good. If the relationship between the two is very harmonious,
I'm afraid even the emperor won't agree.
Now in Dongchang, Jinyiwei was ordered to investigate the assassination case of Chu. The two cooperated and fought openly and secretly, competing with each other.
Qian Ning was the first to salute Wang Yangming and said, "I have met Lord An Guo!"
Wang Yangming smiled and said: "Commander Qian, you don't need to be polite!"
Cao Shaoqin nodded towards Wang Yangming and said, "Mr. An Guo, our family is polite!"
Wang Yangming nodded and said: "Eunuch Cao, you're welcome!"
The three of them walked into the lobby and sat down respectively. Qian Ning looked at Wang Yangming and said, "I think Duke An is waiting for the whereabouts of the officials from the Qingli Department of the Arsenal!"
Just hearing what Qian Ning said, Wang Yangming felt something in his heart. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It seems that the Jin Yiwei has found the whereabouts of those people. Is there anyone left alive?"
"Haha, Duke An is indeed Duke An. You can guess the result with just a few clues."
Cao Shaoqin, who was sitting aside, suddenly looked a little colder and said, "Those people acted really quickly. The bodies of Yuan Wai Lang Gao Qin, Chief Qin An, and Jing Cheng Hao Daren were already being discovered."
Wang Yangming sighed softly and said: "Song Lan mentioned before that several people have not come for several days, so I guessed that they were probably in danger. I originally held out some hope, but now it seems that those people are in danger."
People are already prepared!"
As he said this, Wang Yangming looked at Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning and said seriously: "With the power of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, in this land of the capital, no trouble can be hidden from you. I don't know how many days it will take for you two to find out Qin An."
, Hao Daren, Gao Qin and others died at the hands of whose hands?"
"Three days!"
"Two days!"
Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning spoke almost at the same time. They couldn't help but look at each other, sparks seemed to be flying in their eyes. It was obvious that the overt and covert struggle between the two had almost become overt.
Wang Yangming was not surprised at all, he glanced at the two of them while stroking his beard and said: "In that case, I will visit you two again in three days!"
Here Wang Yangming, Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning and others are busy picking out the enemies hidden in the capital one by one before Chu Yi returns. At this time, Chu Yi has left Shanghai County and is going upstream along the Yangtze River.
Go up and then enter the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal line.
The mighty fleet entered the Grand Canal. The Grand Canal is an inland river after all, so it is naturally not as good as the Yangtze River, but the speed of the ships is much smoother.
It takes almost half a month to get from Shanghai to the capital, even by taking the Grand Canal.
On this day, Chu Yi was standing on the bow of the boat, looking at the steep canyons on both sides of the river. The mountains were tall and tall, the water was rushing, and the waves were splashing. Most people would be frightened when faced with such a scene, but Chu Yi was standing on the bow of the boat.
His expression remained unchanged, but he looked at a large ship in front of him with great interest.
It was a large ship that looked quite extraordinary. Just looking at the scale of the ship, its size and even the cloud patterns carved on the hull showed that this large ship was not comparable to ordinary ships.
Zhang Yanyi is dressed in a Taoist robe with rusty cloud patterns on it. He stands with his hair tied up. He looks like a Taoist figure with an immortal style. Beside him, a young man with a handsome appearance and clear and agile eyes has a sword on his waist. He is also wearing a Taoist robe, but with the addition of
Somewhat heroic.
The young man's name was Zhang Yongxu, and he was the eldest son of Zhang Yanyi. On the big ship, several Taoists sat cross-legged, ignoring the rapids, as if they were on a smooth road and on flat ground.
The origins of this group of people are not trivial at all. There are two major families in China that have been passed down for thousands of years. Apart from this, there is no other family that can compare. They are the lineage of Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain and the lineage of Confucianism and Confucianism.
.
Zhang Yanyi is the master of the Tianshi Mansion and a Taoist great master conferred by the emperor.
This time Zhang Yanyi came to Beijing on orders. As we all know, the emperor Zhu Houzhao did not favor Buddhism and Taoism at first, but in recent years he has paid more and more attention to Taoism. It must be said that Shao Yuanjie's contribution is indispensable.
In the past few years, Shao Yuanjie has been in the palace to teach the emperor how to strengthen his body and regulate his body, so that the emperor can give birth to a dragon son and continue the royal bloodline.
It can be said that this credit alone is enough to double the emperor's favor with the Taoist sect.
Zhu Houzhao never thought about immortality. Under the influence of Shao Yuanjie, Zhu Houzhao naturally had some understanding of Taoism.
In the Tianshi Mansion lineage, the Celestial Masters of all dynasties were granted royal titles, so the relationship between the Tianshi Mansion lineage and the royal family is quite close.
After an imperial edict came down, the real person Zhang Yanyi followed the emperor's order and brought his eldest son to Beijing.
Although Zhang Yongxu, who was standing on the bow of the boat, was over ten years old, he was still a child after all. Even though he had been with Zhang Yanyi since he was a child and was taught by Zhang Yanyi, he was very smart and talented. Now he noticed the continuous stretch of land not far behind him.
The big ship naturally couldn't help but be curious and looked back frequently.
While Chu Yi was looking at the big ship of Tianshi Mansion, Zhang Yanyi was also looking at the fleet behind him.
It is true that Chu Yi's fleet is too large. There are hundreds of ships. With such a large fleet, if any conflict really breaks out, Tianshi Mansion will only have one ship.
, absolutely can't fight.
However, although Zhang Yanyi said that he did not see the identity of Chu Yi and others, he could confirm that this fleet was the imperial troops, and the original worry was naturally put down.
"open?"
Looking at the cloud pattern with a strong Taoist charm on the big ship, and looking at the fluttering Chinese flag on the bow, Chu Yi was surprised and said: "Could this be the big ship of the Zhang family of Tianshi Mansion?"
