Chapter 150

Chapter 150 The imminent Dongchang

"How is the situation now?" Xu Jingchang asked in a tired voice.

Zhu Gaosui smiled and said, "It's either good or bad."

"What's the meaning?"

"Xie Jin is fine, but other civil servants are very bad!" Zhu Gaosui thought he was humorous.

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids and snorted: "Are you sure that Xie Jin was an accident?"

"No!" Zhu Gaosui said: "According to the report, he had abdominal pain after having breakfast. He drank a liter of garlic juice, and then suffered from vomiting and diarrhea. After the imperial doctor looked at it, he said he might have been poisoned or eaten.

The things are not clean. Cheng Guogong has also tortured all the servants of Xie Jin, and found nothing suspicious. At present, Xie Jin is still intact, and he has already started to repair the book."

Xu Jingchang listened for a long time and said angrily: "Isn't this just nonsense? Is there someone trying to harm him?"

Zhu Gaosui grinned bitterly, "Why are you yelling at me? He is so hated for what he did, and the number of people who want to kill him is probably less than yours. They won't be able to find out for a while!"

Xu Jingchang just felt like his head was buzzing. He really couldn't understand. He had always been harmless to humans and animals, kept his own rules, was honest, self-denying and devoted to his duties... He had not done anything wrong at all. How could he be targeted by assassins?

Xu Jingchang didn't care about his threat and said hehe: "Of course you have a reason. Don't forget that you are in charge of the Di newspaper now. What you lack most is news, and the kind that makes a lot of noise... The mysterious Nishan Hongru Society

, assassinating important court ministers, outlaw madmen, influencing the overall situation of the court. Loyal ministers, righteous men, country, assassins... This is something that can be put on the stage."

"Yes, he knew there would be no good consequences for following you, so he drugged himself first and made a noise so that his father would send people to protect him." Zhu Gaosui said: "Yes, that must be the case. Xie Jin is not a good person either!"

But now it seems that this group of civil servants not only have sinister intentions, but are also bold and insidious, and their actions are even more sinister and vicious. They are simply abominable!

If he was assassinated, the Xu family would really be in ruins.

Zhu Gaochi nodded, "I understand, kid."

The more Xu Jingchang listened, the more frightened he became, and the hairs all over his body stood up.

"Did you do it yourself?" Xu Jingchang asked doubtfully.

"Father, if they dare to assassinate my cousin today, I can't imagine what they will do tomorrow. We must investigate thoroughly and arrest them all." Zhu Gaochi suggested.

Xu Jingchang gave him a roll of his eyes, "Is there anything else?"

Zhu Gaochi said cheerfully: "It's not that I'm happy, but since the news came out, now in the court, the six yamen, the Supervisory Office, the Science and Technology Academy, and the Hanlin Academy are all honest and conscientious, and no one can shirk responsibility anymore.

"'

Zhu Di quickly reached out and held his good grandson in his arms.

Right now, what the Xu family can do is Xu Jingchang.

While they were talking, Empress Xu dragged Zhu Zhanji over.

"Let's do a little analysis first...who might take action?" Xu Jingchang asked.

Would Zhu Di do such a thing?

At this time, Prince Zhu Gaochi and King of Han Zhu Gaoxu all had dark faces and angry faces.

Xu Jingchang smiled bitterly and said, "Then tell me, who else is there?"

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyes, "Why do I think you are so happy?"

"The news is confusing now, and I have asked people to investigate thoroughly. Although thieves are rampant, they can only be sneaky and there is nothing to worry about." Zhu Di tried his best to comfort Queen Xu.

It seems hard to tell, the Golden Palace has the upper hand, but then various affairs need to be promoted, and civil servants are required to handle matters, so it makes sense to use Jie Jin to continue to beat them.

Zhu Gaosui was stunned, it seemed reasonable!

My newspaper is really saved.

Zhu Gaosui thought for a moment, "Of course this is a civil official, but I'm a little confused. They like Jian Shangshu and Xia Shangshu will never get involved. It's hard to say for others. What if someone cares about Confucius more...

By the way, Beikong's minions, they got the news and took action."

He stopped fishing and eating delicious food.

Nothing wrong!

"But my father is the Yingrui Holy Lord, and he doesn't like this kind of arrogance. It shouldn't be him." Zhu Gaosui went back to make amends.

Xu Jingchang thought about it seriously, "Can you be sure?"

Xu Jingchang shivered all over and couldn't help but said, "Is there anything else?"

"Brother, why do I doubt that there really is a Nishan Hongru Society?"

Xu Jingchang, the Duke of Ding who is not afraid of the sky or the earth, is really scared today.

Zhu Di thought for a while, nodded and said, "You should also be more careful."

Xu Jingchang thought for a while and sighed: "Let's not talk about him or who did it. Do you know the usual assassination techniques?"

Zhu Gaosui thought for a while, "It's hard to say...Now that the civil servants and generals are causing such trouble...do you think it was my father who did it?"

"Fart! If they dare to assassinate me, they dare to assassinate you. Even His Majesty may not be safe... I am terrified and uneasy now. In the huge Ming Dynasty, there is hardly a foot of pure land or an inch of resting place. I have to wrap myself up when I sleep.

The quilt is so tight."

After Zhu Gaosui finished speaking, he was shocked.

"We?" Zhu Gaosui said in a dull voice, "Brother Xian, I'm not on the list, so there's no need to be afraid, right?"

The little guy cried so sadly. Although his cousin was not very reliable, he gave me a lot of things to play with and helped him earn golden beans. What if he died?

Seeing his son crying like this, Zhu Gaochi became excited. If your father died, you would be so sad.

"Others? There are many... For example, if you like fishing, they will design it to make you fall into the water, just like being dragged into the river by a big fish. Also, if you like listening to music, they will bribe a girl who sings in an opera.

, teach them all kinds of skills, first use their skills to charm you, and then they will violently kill you."

"Father, my cousin has become nothing more than a dog. It's so pitiful!" Zhu Gaosui went to cry to Zhu Di again.

"Don't cry, don't cry. Don't worry, Grandpa Huang is here! Nothing will happen."

Xu Jingchang hummed: "Beikong is in Shandong, and Yanshenggong is only three years old this year. Even if he eats the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard, he can't attack Jie Jin so quickly, right?"

As soon as Zhu Di coaxed his eldest grandson, Queen Xu's eyes were red.

Zhu Di frowned, "I really can't spare them... It's just that people are panicking right now. I heard that Xu Jingchang was scared to death. How can we take action?"

In the case of Jie Jin's poisoning, it can be said that anyone who is gasping for breath is suspected.

Far away, Zhu Zhanji burst into tears.

Hearing Xu Jingchang's words, Zhu Gaosui jumped up and said, "Don't talk nonsense! Your grandfather is my maternal grandfather, and we are relatives. I have always been cheering for you. I heard that someone wanted to assassinate you, so I didn't avoid danger.

Come here and give you a tip. You have to be conscientious, Xu Jingchang, if you don’t make things clear, I’m not done with you!”

Zhu Dazhuang came to the Xu family.

Zhu Gaosui said: "I knew that there was a county magistrate who just liked going to the theater and hired a theater troupe. Among them was a great martial arts student who was good at acting and had good kung fu. The county magistrate was very happy and wanted to have a chat with him...

Who would have thought that after this guy finished singing a play, he suddenly flew over. He was playing the role of Zhao Zilong. He stabbed his neck with a bright silver gun, and blood shot out like an arrow. He stared with two eyes and refused to rest in silence.

!”

Unfortunately, he was young, not yet married, and had no offspring.

Zhu Di grimaced and snorted: "How could I not know! They are so daring. How can they touch my courtiers?"

Zhu Gaosui said a lot in succession, all of which were indeed possible, but none of them were certain.

In the past, I always felt that literati were not as powerful as warriors, so the emperor inevitably favored civil servants.

Queen Xu's cry made Zhu Gaochi and others also sad.

"It's you! His Royal Highness King Zhao, Zhu Gaosui!"

Empress Xu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Your Majesty, how could you forget that my nephew is the most astute, this time it is aimed at him, most likely this kid already has an idea, why don't you go and ask him

.”

If there is anything to eat or drink, give it to the dog first, and then he will eat it.

"What else? There are many more, such as the remaining old ministers of the former Yuan Dynasty, the remaining members of the Jianwen Party, and perhaps the enemies that Jie Jin offended in the past. If they attack now, it will just confuse the public."

The Xu Mansion doubled the number of guards and bought a dozen dogs to keep in the backyard.

But Queen Xu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to commit a thief, but there is no such thing as a thousand days to guard against a thief. These gentry and Confucian scholars are too arrogant. Your Majesty cannot condone them."

"That's the second possibility. Maybe Jie Jin did it himself."

Zhu Gaosui became more energetic, "I'm familiar with this. Speaking of which, I even asked Ji Gang... He said that the usual methods include drugging, such as Jie Jin. There are also bows and crossbows... For example, on the section of road you passed, people

I will lay an ambush in advance and wait for you to ride over on a big horse, then I will shoot you. In order to ensure that I will kill you with one hit, I will also temper the poison, the kind that seals my throat with blood, so I can kill you with one arrow."

I have to say that conspiracy theories are indeed the best answer to all difficult problems... Regardless of whether they are right or wrong, at least they can convince themselves.

Even Empress Xu believed that it was the literati who took action.

"Your Majesty, the fourth brother is dead, and he only has this kind of roots... If something goes wrong, I'm afraid I'll be sorry for the fourth brother!"

It's just that there is always a sense of gloating in his words, both inside and outside.

"Who?" Zhu Gaosui asked in surprise.

"Yes, it's an assassination... When you sleep at night, someone sneaks in, comes to your bedside, then takes a sharp knife and stabs you randomly, turning you into a hornet's nest, and you bleed to death."

Zhu Di was very tempted, and was about to go and see Xu Jingchang, but Zhu Gaochi said: "Father, someone wants to assassinate Xiandi, and there may be an ambush outside his mansion. It may not be appropriate for Father to go suddenly. Why don't you let me go and ask

If he has any good ideas, I will come back and tell my father."

"Stop talking, we have to find a way."

"My dear brother, your life is at stake this time. If you have any bezoars and dog treasures, take them out quickly. How are you going to save your life?"

"Grandpa Huang, don't let your cousin die, save your cousin!"

"Actually, you have forgotten someone." Xu Jingchang said quietly.

Xu Jingchang also couldn't laugh or cry, "They are just a bunch of cheap people... Okay, tell your majesty, we need to build a yamen to prevent assassinations. It is best to have someone who can command the Jin Yiwei. Your majesty is completely assured that there will be no collusion with Hongru."

Then by the way, the number of Jin Yiwei was also expanded, and a few thousand more households were added. They must be protected both inside and outside the palace. All officials in the court must also be watched over!"

Xu Jingchang smiled lightly and said: "We are doing this for their own good, can we avoid suspicion?"

Big Fatty Zhu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood something... When it comes to deep thinking and good timing, your boy is definitely the one!

"Okay, I'm going to tell you now. This time, there is another sharp sword on the head of the officials!"
