Chapter 455 Assassination of Emperor Jing
The people in the warm cabinet dispersed.
Such an emergency disturbed everyone's hearts, and Emperor Jing just made a quick arrangement and let the others perform their duties.
Sitting alone in the warm cabinet, thinking, Guo Tianyang was still standing by his side as usual.
This thought took only an hour. Emperor Jing rubbed his eyebrows and spoke and ordered someone to send me a memorial.
It's still early now, and the incident of King Wu happened suddenly.
But it's not a big problem, I'm just afraid that there will be problems with Fang Zhengyi.
Now we have arranged people to go to Haiyuan City immediately, and we can't come even if we are anxious.
Not long after, the memorials from recent days were delivered, and Emperor Jing picked up a red pen like no one else to review the cabinet bill.
The King of Wu did cause trouble, but there were so many major events in the world, and he asked him to make every matter. Since the arrangements have been made, he should not delay other major events because of this matter.
Emperor Jing frowned and reviewed the memorials, and couldn't help but feel distracted.
The warm cabinet was quiet, only the sound made by Emperor Jing flipping through the memorial.
At this moment, someone reported outside the door: "Your Majesty, the eunuch of the Seal and Strip Prison has something to ask for your Majesty."
Emperor Jing put down his red pen and raised his head in confusion.
What big deal can the Seal and Ribbon Supervisor happen? And the name He Jin sounds familiar.
"Come in."
Soon, a eunuch walked into the hall slowly with a tray with his head hanging down.
After standing still, he said, "Why have you seen Your Majesty now?"
"What big deal do you have to report?"
He Jin's voice seemed a little nervous: "I am the chief supervisor of the seal and ribbon. Today, when I inspected the ancient and modern Tongjiku, I accidentally found a letter, which was left by the King of Wu. It also said that His Majesty personally issued it, and I dare not neglect it.
Then he arrived immediately."
The letters left by the fourth brother? How did they appear in the Tongji Library?
Emperor Jing felt a little alert and said seriously: "Come on!"
He Jin did not dare to be negligent, and slowly moved his steps to the front of Emperor Jing.
Looking at the letter paper on the tray, Emperor Jing reached out to get it!
He Jin's face looked a little gray, and beads of sweat gradually oozed out from his forehead, gritting his teeth.
Just as Emperor Jing stretched out his hand, He Jin released the tray with one hand and pulled it into his sleeve!
A cold light appeared! He actually took out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed directly into Emperor Jing’s heart!
Emperor Jing's hair stood up all over his body!
Instinctively twisted his side and avoided the vital points. The next moment, he not only did not continue to dodge, but instead let the dagger stab on his shoulder and punched him to meet him!
A jab that was as fast as lightning hit He Jin's Adam's apple!
The fist peak hit the neck deeply, and the sound of Adam's apple shattering faintly sounded, and a piece suddenly popped up from He Jin's neck!
Then he fell one foot away, covered his neck and struggled hard twice, and died.
In the flash, the battle was over.
Guo Tianyang was like petrochemical, and he remained motionless.
It was not until he saw a half-bright dagger tied on his shoulder that he made a sharp chicken cry: "There are thorns..."
"Shut up!" Emperor Jing scolded, then bent down and picked up the letter paper on the ground.
The dagger stuck on his shoulder seemed to have no existence, and he naturally sat down and began to read the letter.
Guo Tianyang only felt his mind buzzing and did not dare to say anything.
After reading the letter, Emperor Jing raised his head and said coldly: "Ha... It's really the farewell letter left by the fourth brother. It seems that he didn't think he could be assassinated successfully! I remembered that He had served him before.
He must have a handle and dared to assassinate him! Today, the King of Wu Mansion was just copied, so he came to assassinate him. It should have been arranged in advance... The fourth brother is still very thoughtful, but he is dissatisfied with me.
Declare war!”
"Run... where can he run? Dajing can't stay anymore. Haiyuan City continues to move south. Could it be that he wants to go to the vassal state of Nanyang... it is impossible." Emperor Jing was still muttering to himself, and suddenly he felt a sudden change of heart.
I realized that I had said a lot of words but the people around me didn't respond, so I couldn't help looking at Guo Tianyang.
Guo Tianyang was already swallowing his saliva. Looking at Emperor Jing's shoulders gradually being wet with blood, he had something to say but dared not say it.
It was not until two evil lights shot at him that he suddenly came to his senses.
"Do you want to see me bleed and die? Why don't you go to the imperial physician quickly!"
"Yes!" Guo Tianyang was shocked and hurriedly ran out.
Not long after, the imperial physician was brought back. When he saw a dagger inserted on Emperor Jing's shoulder, he was almost scared to death.
Emperor Jing pulled out the dagger with his own hands and found that it had not damaged his muscles and bones. The imperial physician quickly applied some herbs, then tied the wound and hurriedly retreated.
Guo Tianyang carefully approached Emperor Jing and said worriedly: "Your Majesty... are you okay?"
"Do you think I'm okay?"
“…”
Plop!
"Okay, okay! Don't kneel down. I'm upset when I look at you. When you react, I've been dead ten times!" Emperor Jing waved impatiently.
Guo Tianyang immediately stood up and panicked, "It's all the old slave's fault, it's all the old slave's fault!"
"Send someone to the palace to investigate whether there are any other fourth brothers."
Guo Tianyang hesitated for a while and said nervously: "Your Majesty, I always feel that this matter is a little strange."
"Your Majesty asked Lord Fang to investigate the salt merchants. Why did the King of Wu run away when he found out? This reaction was too extreme!"
"There are also attacking Taoyuan County and assassinating Your Majesty, one by one, one by one, will there be others here? Do you want it..."
Emperor Jing couldn't help but lower his eyes and glanced at the letter, and said surely: "No, he was not overreacting, he was cautious."
"It seems that Liu Xun and the salt merchant must have something to do with him. He knew in his heart that the stall was so big that he could not hide it as long as he showed a little bit of his flaw. It was a wise choice to leave Beijing immediately."
"It's okay for him to make money! Now he's anxious and dares to rebel and be a bastard!"
As he spoke, Emperor Jing was already vaguely angry, but he quickly suppressed it.
"Don't let the rumor of the assassination tonight. Remember to clean up and do it."
.........
Haiyuan City.
In a few days, the Lu family had already been imprisoned.
Afterwards, Fang Zhengyi immediately arranged for someone to move all the gold, silver and treasures in the silver treasury and valuable items in the Lu family's house to the warehouse of the yamen.
I am afraid that the warehouse is not big enough, so I can spare a few more rooms for spare.
The number of dozens of workers was very excited at first. After all, it was a great joy to see so much money with your own eyes.
But this freshness didn't last long, and soon became as tired as a dead dog.
After moving the day, I saw that the silver was already in a numb state, which was no different from looking at silver bricks and tiles. I felt disgusted.
After everything was well organized, Fang Zhengyi brought all the accounts from the east account room of the yamen and started counting.
Some of the money was taken away by the officers and soldiers, and some of the money was used to subsidize the people.
Only the rest will be handed over to the court, and this account book will naturally have to be made into a new one.
In addition, it is to open the door of the government office, so that the people can make grievances and collect a large amount of evidence of the Lu family's crimes.
However, things were a bit unexpected... Fang Zhengyi didn't expect that so many people would come to the government to report the case, and there were all kinds of miscellaneous things, and the workload was seriously exceeding expectations!
Since he had made a boast of Haikou, it was difficult to change it. He could only free up a few more rooms and dispatch several brothers to investigate the case separately. Of course, Fang Zhengyi also joined in person.
He was busy all morning before stopping the work at hand and asked Xie Xian to accompany him to inspect the warehouse.
Seeing the crackling sound of several accountants making abacus, Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but remind:
"You guys have to make a mark for me! You must not make a mistake. Although the abacus is small, it is bigger than my head. You have to remember it. The one you put in your hand is me.
Fang Zhengyi’s head!”
"Don't worry, Lord Fang, we have been working for more than twenty years, are you wrong...hey?"
