Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-fifth Chapter Chu Manager Comes to the Door [1 More]
After all, in Gu Dayong's opinion, it was not difficult for the few people he sent out to kill Xu Jie, but the reality was beyond Gu Dayong's expectation.
Especially now, looking at the men kneeling in front of him, Gu Dayong really had an urge to step forward and kick these losers to death.
"General Manager, Xu Zisheng is really too cunning. We didn't expect that boy to be so troublesome..."
"Trash, you are all trash. You can't even deal with a young man. I have raised you all in vain!"
Looking at these subordinates, Gu Dayong became more and more angry. What made Gu Dayong most angry was the news brought back by these subordinates.
Xu Jie, who originally didn't take him seriously, unexpectedly revealed that there was something about the roster.
This immediately touched Gu Dayong's sore foot. It is said that Gu Dayong has always been quite ambitious. From the time the emperor ascended the throne, Gu Dayong first competed with Liu Jin, but he was not Liu Jin's opponent.
, was firmly suppressed by Liu Jin.
After Liu Jin was overthrown by Li Dongyang and other cabinet ministers, Gu Dayong originally thought that he could rise to the top and become the number one person in the palace. However, what disappointed Gu Dayong was that Chu Yi suddenly became the emperor's most popular figure at an astonishing speed.
people.
It can be said that Chu Yi was so relied upon by the emperor that even Gu Dayong would not have any thoughts of fighting after seeing him. If Chu Yi did not go to Japan for more than a year, then Gu Dayong would definitely not be able to do so.
Give birth to such ambition.
It was Chu Yi who went out to fight, so he gave Gu Da time and space to grow his ambition. Once a person's ambition grows, it is obviously impossible to suppress it.
In the past year or so, Gu Dayong has made many small moves. From the small moves at the beginning to more and more big moves later, Gu Dayong has been deeply involved in it. Even if he wants to get out, he can't.
It's too late.
Among them, Xu Jie played a considerable role in the later period.
Xu Jie's entire family was wiped out. This was quite clear to Gu Dayong, but Gu Dayong didn't take it to heart. Instead, he used Xu Jie more seriously. After all, Xu Jie hated the imperial court and Chu Yi. This was the same as him.
What does it have to do with Gu Dayong?
Anyway, what he wanted to take advantage of was Xu Jie's hatred for Chu Yi. Only in this way could he rest assured, after all, it was impossible for Xu Jie to go and inform Chu Yi, his great enemy.
Gu Dayong did not expect that Xu Jie would come up with a roster. If it is true as Xu Jie said, then the roster is very important. The most important thing is that this roster cannot fall into one person's possession.
in hand.
Once the roster falls into the hands of Chu Yi, Gu Dayong can be sure that even if the emperor takes care of it, Chu Yi will definitely not let him go.
It is true that Gu Dayong made too many small moves against Chu Yi this year. The real mastermind behind the assassination of Chu Yi at the port cannot be said to be Gu Dayong, but Gu Dayong was definitely involved and
Played a great role.
Once the so-called roster in Xu Jie's hands was exposed, Gu Dayong really couldn't imagine how Chu Yi would deal with him.
"Kill him for me. No matter what method you use, I want Xu Zisheng to keep his mouth shut forever!"
With an angry roar, Gu Da waved his hand, and saw the people kneeling on the ground leaving quickly as if they were being pardoned.
Before the anger on Gu Dayong's face dissipated, he saw a young eunuch running over in a panic and saying: "General Manager, General Manager, it's not good..."
Gu Dayong, who was in a bad mood, couldn't help but glared at the little eunuch and said, "What are you yelling about? Drag him out and beat him to death with a stick!"
In this palace, no one really cares about the life and death of a young eunuch, let alone the order of Gu Dayong.
With Gu Dayong's current status, it couldn't be easier to decide the life or death of a young eunuch with just one word.
As soon as the little eunuch heard the thud, his body fell to the ground involuntarily. He was obviously frightened by Gu Dayong's cruelty.
"Mr. Gu, what's going on? Why are you so angry with a young eunuch? Why don't you give Chu some mercy and spare the young eunuch?"
A voice suddenly rang out, and Gu Dayong jumped up from his seat as if nails suddenly popped out from under his butt. He looked up and saw Chu Yi walking over.
When he saw Chu Yi, Gu Dayong showed a bit of surprise and panic on his face, but soon Gu Dayong regained his composure, squeezed out a smile on his face, stepped forward and laughed at Chu Yi:
"I wonder who is here. It turns out to be the General Manager of Chu. The General Manager is here. This small courtyard of Gu is really full of glory!"
As he spoke, Chu Yi walked closer, looking at Gu Dayong with a smile on his face, and glanced at the little eunuch on the ground.
Gu Dayong immediately looked like he had come to his senses, and with a bit of a smile on his face, he said to the little eunuch: "You're in good luck. Today, the chief manager is interceding for you. If you don't get out of here, if you do it again."
If so..."
The little eunuch kowtowed to Gu Dayong and Chu Yi repeatedly, as if he had been granted amnesty, and retreated in a panic.
Gu Dayong called Chu Yi to sit down and said, "Why does the chief manager have time to come to Gu's place?"
Chu Yi glanced at Gu Dayong and said, "Why, if Chu is fine, he can't come to Xungu to say farewell to the manager?"
Gu Dayong was stunned at first, and then said with an apologetic look: "What the chief manager said is, blame me, blame me!"
However, Chu Yi changed his words and showed a serious expression on his face. He looked at Gu Dayong and said, "But Chu actually has something to ask Mr. Gu for advice!"
Gu Dayong didn't expect Chu Yi to say this suddenly. Just now he said he was just here to say farewell, but in the blink of an eye he said he was here for something else.
However, Gu Dayong looked at Chu Yi and said with a smile: "The General Manager is really joking. How can I ask for advice? If the General Manager wants to know something, Gu will definitely tell you everything he knows."
Chu Yi played with the tea cup in his hand, looked at Gu Dayong and said: "Chu just came here to ask Manager Gu for his opinion on the murder case in Xianglou that day not long ago!"
Gu Dayong, who was drinking tea from a teacup, suddenly trembled when he heard the words. Although it was very subtle, it could be seen that Gu Dayong was not that calm in his heart.
Forced to suppress the turmoil in his heart, Gu Dayong couldn't help but look up at Chu Yi, and said with a bit of anger: "For those who dare to commit crimes and hurt others in broad daylight, they will naturally be killed without mercy.
, if Gu knew who was disrupting the order of the capital, Gu would definitely beat him to death with his own hands."
Chu Yi nodded slightly and said: "Oh, so Manager Laigu doesn't have any clues about the Tianxiang Tower murder case!"
Gu Dayong shook his head and said: "Gu has been living in the palace all year round to serve His Majesty, and he really doesn't know much about the outside world. Even if Gu wanted to help the chief manager, he was unable to do anything. I have to say that the chief manager this time was
You’ve found the wrong person!”
Chu Yi looked disappointed and said: "Your Majesty handed over this case to Mr. Chu. Chu's burden is not light. I originally thought that Mr. Gu could give Chu a direction, but I never thought that Mr. Gu didn't have any clues.
clue."
While sighing, Chu Yi seemed to say unintentionally: "Chu thought that in the past year, Manager Gu's informants had spread all over the capital, and the troubles in the capital could not be hidden from Manager Gu."
His eyes shrank, and Gu Dayong was horrified, and he quickly said: "The chief manager is really kidding me. Gu Dayong only serves His Majesty and has never been interested in external affairs. How could he have some informants all over the capital? This is just a joke."
It’s hard to say, if anyone knew about it, they would think Mr. Gu had any ambitions.”
Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Chu Yi glanced at Gu Dayong and said with a disappointed look: "It seems that Chu needs to investigate this case himself."
Chu Yi stood up and said to Gu Dayong: "It's important to solve the case. Since Mr. Gu doesn't have any clues here, Chu will take his leave now. If there is any disturbance, please forgive Mr. Gu."
Watching Chu Yi leave, he saw a figure walking out. It was one of Gu Dayong's right-hand men, the great eunuch Miao Miao.
If in the past Yuhuatian was Gu Dayong's confidant and took charge of the West Factory for Gu Dayong, then the eunuch Miao Miao was more relied upon and trusted by Gu Dayong than Yuhuatian.
Yuhuatian had already turned to Chu Yi and therefore lost Gu Dayong's trust. In this way, the great eunuch Miao Miao would naturally gain Gu Dayong's trust even more.
"Miao Miao, tell me, what does Chu Yi mean?"
Miao Miao was Gu Dayong's assistant and his wise man. As he watched Chu Yi leave, Gu Dayong couldn't help but glance at Miao Miao and said.
Miao Miao squinted his eyes, stood beside Gu Dayong, and said slowly: "General manager, I'm afraid that Chu Yi has noticed something!"
His eyes narrowed, Gu Dayong couldn't help but frown and said: "If you say that, is Chu Yi suspicious of me?"
Miao Miao sighed and said: "In the final analysis, Chu Yi's foundation in the capital is too deep. Except for the fact that the relationship between Qian Ning and Chu Yi, the commander of the Jin Yiwei, is a little bad, but Dong Dong
The factory is controlled by Cao Shaoqin, who is a die-hard loyalist of Chu Yi. If we say that Dongchang is not aware of some troubles, I am afraid no one will believe it."
In the capital, the East Factory was loyal to the emperor and also to Chu Yi. Although the West Factory was nominally under the jurisdiction of Gu Dayong, the real power was in the hands of Yuhuatian.
Now that Yuhuatian is favored by Chu Yi and valued by the emperor, sooner or later he will completely replace Gu Dayong, and the other ones are Jin Yiwei.
The commander of the Jinyi Guards is Qian Ning, who has Zhu Houzhao's trust. Qian Ning's attitude toward Chu Yi can be said to be neither far nor near, and he has a very good grasp of it. He will not offend Chu Yi or Gu Dayong. In addition to being loyal to Chu Yi,
Apart from the Emperor, it can be said that he is impartial.
With Dongchang's eyes and ears, Dongchang dare not say that he has investigated all the troubles in the capital, but it is also impossible for him to not be aware of the undercurrents in the capital.
Gu Dayong took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually showed a bit of murderous intent: "Chu Yi must have noticed something, otherwise, with his temperament, he would definitely not take the initiative to come to see me."
