Chapter 550 The opportunity of the West Factory has come [2 more]
As he spoke, a cold light flashed in Zhu Houzhao's eyes, and he glanced over the servants and said: "I know that you are very close to Gu Daban on weekdays, but what happened in recent days has only come to your ears. If
But if someone spreads it to others, no matter who spreads it, I will kill you and others!"
Plop, plop
Immediately, the servants were so frightened that they fell to their knees on the ground with pale faces, and said to Zhu Houzhao in a trembling voice: "I will keep my mouth shut and never dare to tell the third person."
With a flick of his sleeve, Zhu Houzhao snorted: "I don't want to kill people, but that doesn't mean I won't kill people!"
As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao said to the chamberlain: "Hurry up and go!"
The waiter quickly trotted away.
In the imperial garden, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but rub his forehead. Obviously, the words of Jiao Fang and others had a great impact on Zhu Houzhao's heart.
There is a saying that love is deep and responsibility is deep. There is a precedent for Chu Yi, who is also one of the most trustworthy servants around him. Although Zhu Houzhao never thought that there is another person in the world who can be like Chu Yi
, and he did not ask Gu Dayong to be as good as Chu Yi, but he must be at least a few percent as good as Chu Yi.
However, instead of waiting for Gu Dayong to perform any great feats, what awaited him was to be accused of Gu Dayong's crimes one after another.
Emotionally, Zhu Houzhao was naturally unwilling to accept Gu Dayong's guilt, but from a rational point of view as the emperor, Zhu Houzhao knew one thing clearly, that is, he must pay attention to Jiao Fang's impeachment of Gu Dayong.
Qian Ning, the commander of the Jin Yiwei, was an all-rounder. When Chu Yi was in power, he naturally catered to the emperor's will and obeyed Chu Yi's words. He was even more loyal to Chu Yi than many eunuchs.
But after Chu Yi resigned, Qian Ning immediately distanced himself from Jiao Fang, Wang Shouren and Chu Yi's confidants, making it clear that he only obeyed the emperor's orders, and even tried to win over Gu Dayong.
Qian Ning was both hypocritical and submissive, sticking to his duty and not having any closeness to Gu Dayong.
Dongchang has made it clear that it is Chu Yi's private territory. Even after Chu Yi resigned, Dongchang still stood unequivocally on the side of Jiao Fang and Chu Yi's former confidants.
Zhu Houzhao wanted to find out the details about Gu Dayong. As an emperor, the first thing Zhu Houzhao thought of was the West Factory, not the East Factory and Jin Yiwei.
Xichang was originally under Gu Dayong, but later Yuhuatian came to be valued by the emperor, and Gu Dayong had no intention of controlling Xichang, so Xichang was completely under Yuhuatian's control.
In Zhu Houzhao's view, both Dongchang and Jinyiwei might be biased in secretly investigating Gu Dayong, but Xichang was different.
After all, Xichang could be considered Gu Dayong's subordinate in the past, so Zhu Houzhao chose Xichang. He wanted to see what the results of Xichang's investigation were.
The Heavenly Master Zhang Yanyi on the side looked calm at this moment. Even though there was a storm in his heart, as a Taoist master, at least he still had to show his appearance on the surface. Otherwise, wouldn't he lose his identity?
.
Zhu Houzhao glanced at Zhang Yanyi, noticed that Zhang Yanyi looked calm and calm, and couldn't help but turned to Zhang Yanyi: "Tianshi, can you listen to what Mr. Jiao Ge just said?"
With a thump in his heart, Zhang Yanyi kept praying that Zhu Houzhao would not notice him, but he never thought that he would attract Zhu Houzhao's attention by acting in such a calm and calm manner.
As the saying goes, what you are afraid of will come, but he heard it clearly. Jiao Fang made it clear that he wanted to impeach Gu Dayong in front of the emperor. One was the chief minister of the cabinet, and the other was the chief minister of rituals. It can be said that he was the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty today.
Two giant-level figures.
Even the Tianshi Mansion is not willing to get involved in the internal fighting between beings at this level.
But when the emperor spoke, Zhang Yanyi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He flicked the duster in his hand and said to Zhu Houzhao with a calm expression on his face: "I am a foreigner, but it is not easy to interfere in the affairs of the court."
!”
As a Celestial Master conferred by the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, the family of Tianshi Mansion has always been close to the royal family. However, the Zhang family of Tianshi Mansion has been able to pass on for thousands of years and has been valued by the royal families of all dynasties. It is precisely because the Zhang family of Tianshi Mansion has its own way of life.
way.
The Tianshi Mansion never gets involved in court battles, does not discuss government affairs, and does not comment on any officials above the court. In this way, the Tianshi Mansion is harmless to the officials above and below the court, and has one more friend.
It is better than having one more enemy. Since Tianshi Mansion sticks to its duty so closely, then everyone is naturally willing to give Tianshi Mansion some face.
This would make the emperor ask Zhang Yanyi. Naturally, Zhang Yanyi did not dare to get involved in the fight between the two big men in the court, so he directly used their signature.
As an outsider, I don't care about the affairs of the mortal world.
Just this excuse is enough to prevent the emperor from continuing to press. After all, as long as he is not a fatuous monarch, he will not be willing to see religion intervening in the government affairs of the court. Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, as the emperor, he is not willing to see these two families interfering with government affairs.
The court officials were too involved.
Hearing what Zhang Yanyi said, Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment. After reacting, he thought of Zhang Yanyi's identity, nodded slightly, but did not press Zhang Yanyi again.
Zhang Yanyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and prayed in his heart that Yu Huatian, the governor of the West Factory, could come over soon.
After drinking tea, I saw a figure coming quickly. The person was wearing a gorgeous robe. Wearing the same robe on Chu Yi gave people a sense of grandeur, but wearing it on Yu Huatian gave people a sense of grandeur.
A feeling of femininity.
As the governor of Xichang, although Yu Huatian has little influence in the court, as the head of one of the three major intelligence agencies of the Ming Dynasty, few people are willing to offend the governor of Xichang.
"This slave is raining into the fields and paying homage to His Majesty!"
After glancing at Yuhuatian, Zhu Houzhao waved his hands slightly and said, "No need to be polite, get up and talk!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Yuhuatian thanked the emperor, stood up, bowed his head slightly, and said with a respectful look: "I don't know why your majesty called this servant here."
On the way here, Yuhuatian wanted to get some information from the eunuch who was delivering the decree. Unfortunately, the eunuch was ordered to keep his mouth shut by the emperor, so he naturally did not dare to leak any information, so Yuhuatian said
But in his heart, he didn't know why the emperor suddenly called him here.
You must know that the status of both Dongchang and Jinyiwei in the emperor's mind is higher than that of their west factory. After all, Dongchang is Chu Yi's direct subordinate, and Jinyiwei is directly responsible to the emperor. It is his relationship between the west factory and the emperor.
It's a little far away, so if something happens, the emperor rarely thinks of their West Factory.
However, this time Yuhuatian was surprised to find that he did not see the two competitors, Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning. This meant that the emperor summoned him alone, and Yuhuatian felt a little excited in his heart.
Looking forward to coming.
How long has this been going on? How long has it been since West Factory handled cases and arrested people? If this continues, we may not know when West Factory will be cancelled.
You must know that there have always been calls for the banning of Xichang. If the emperor and Chu Yi had not insisted, Xichang might have been forced to cancel it under the pressure of civil and military pressure from the DPRK and China.
As the governor of the West Factory, compared to the notorious Dongchang and Jinyiwei, the presence of the West Factory is almost gone. Now that the emperor summons him, it would be strange if Yuhuatian is not excited.
After glancing at Yuhuatian, Zhu Houzhao just said slowly: "Yuhuatian, can I believe you?"
With a pop, Yuhuatian immediately knelt down in front of the emperor and said with great piety: "I am willing to die for your majesty!"
Zhu Houzhao said slowly: "I want you to check someone out!"
A bright light flashed in Yu Huatian's eyes, and the names of several people suddenly appeared in his mind. Chu Yi, Jiao Fang, Gu Dayong, Zhang Mao and other people who could be said to be in the imperial court would be shaken three times if they stomped their feet.
of several people.
Looking up at Zhu Houzhao, Yuhuatian said without any hesitation: "I will definitely live up to your Majesty's expectations."
Zhu Houzhao said lightly: "Why don't you ask me who I asked you to investigate?"
Yuhuatian said categorically: "The West Factory is His Majesty's West Factory, and I am the governor of the West Factory whom Your Majesty accepts your fate. No matter who you ask me to investigate, I will do my best."
It could be seen that Zhu Houzhao was very satisfied with Yuhuatian's answer. He nodded slightly and said, "Let me check up on Gu Dayong. I want to know everything about Gu Dayong."
There was a thump in his heart, and then Yu Hua Tian was overjoyed, and he bowed respectfully and said: "I accept your order, slave!"
In order to win the emperor's attention, Yuhuatian has been mentally prepared. Even if Zhu Houzhao asks him to investigate Chu Yi, he will accept the order without hesitation. Now that the emperor asks him to investigate Yuhuatian, compared to investigating Chu Yi
If you are Yi, the pressure will naturally be greatly reduced.
If he is really asked to check Chu Yi, to be honest, Yuhuatian is really under great pressure, but if he goes to check the valley, how can Yuhuatian compare with Chu Yi.
Others may not know about Gu Dayong, but as the governor of Xichang, he still controls Xichang. Even if Xichang is not taken seriously, it is still one of the three major intelligence departments of the Ming Dynasty, so Yuhuatian
I have heard about some of Gu Dayong’s secrets.
It was precisely because he knew something about Gu Dayong that Yuhuatian felt more at ease.
If he was asked to investigate Chu Yi, he was not sure. After all, it was obviously impossible to find out Chu Yi's problem based on his always flawless style of dealing with Chu Yi.
But it is not too simple to find out the problem of Gu Dayong. Just some of the problems he knows about Gu Dayong. As long as the emperor is exposed, Gu Dayong's good days are probably coming to an end. All crimes
Taken together, I am afraid that Gu Dayong's head may not be saved. Even if the emperor spared his life in the end, Gu Dayong would be dead and there would be no future troubles at all. Therefore, Yuhuatian took over the head very simply.
Life.
Gu Dayong was in the mansion outside the palace. A figure was kneeling in front of Gu Dayong, who was sitting there with a cup of tea in his hand.
Under the dim candlelight, it could be seen that the person kneeling in front of Gu Dayong was a chamberlain. He was lying there shivering and said in a trembling voice: "General Manager, I have already told you everything."
, please also ask the chief manager..."
ps: As a routine sacrifice, I recommend a book, "High Martial Arts Ahead", a story about a 50-50 split in the world of modern martial arts.
