Chapter 28 Words, Weapons
Chang Feng was indeed gambling.

The TV dramas of later generations portrayed too much the power and status of the low-level Jinyiwei officials.

In Daming, the status of the cabinet members and Jin Yiwei General Banner can't be said to be very different, at least it's a world of difference.

A small general flag rushed to the cabinet member's house and said to the cabinet member: "Mr. Ge, you hired a low-level burglar tonight and stole our Jinyiwei's things. Hand it over!"

Maybe it will be a good fight.

Liu Jue's mansion is far away in Beicheng, where nobles gather.

Chang Feng, two people and one dog, rushed from the south city to the Ge Lao Mansion in the north city, and there was only three quarters of time left before dawn.

During these three moments, Chang Feng wanted to persuade Liu Jue to hand over the letter box.

(Note: One moment = 15 minutes)

In the study of Ge Lao Mansion, Liu Jue was not asleep.

Chang Feng is a gambler, and Liu Jue is also a gambler.It's just that there is a difference in size.

With the undercurrent in the capital tonight, Liu Jue bet all his bets on the prince's side.How could he sleep?

Liu Jue is writing a picture.

His work is the best in the world, and he is a family of his own.

At this moment, what he wrote on the paper was the word "candid".

Butler Liu stood beside him and waited on him.From Butler Liu's point of view, those two unrestrained "magnanimous" both look like "sluts", but in reverse, they are "sluts".

In fact, there is no essential difference between high-ranking court officials and sluts.It's all about serving this today and committing to that tomorrow.

It's time for Liu Jue to go out as an official sedan chair and go to Fengtianmen to participate in the imperial court.

Suddenly, a servant entered the study: "My lord, Jinyiwei North Town Fusi General Banner Changfeng is asking to see you."

Liu Jue sneered: "Oh, what a strange year. Any cat or dog would want to see the old man of Ming Dynasty."

The servant added: "The general flag said that he came to see the master about the criminal officer Cai Zhong."

Liu Jue's complexion changed.After thinking for a while, he ordered the servant: "Let him come to the study to meet me."

Not long after, the servant led Chang Feng to Liu Sui.

Fatty Xu didn't follow in, Chang Feng asked him to wait outside the gate of the mansion.

Chang Feng knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Jue: "Little Jinyiwei General Banner Changfeng"

Liu Jue raised his hand impatiently: "Forget about that set of vain rituals. If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have to fart, let it go. You can't afford to delay my pavilion's participation in the Yumen morning court."

As the time was running out, Chang Feng went straight to the point: "My little one knows that Mr. Ge found Shi Jian from the Miaoshoumen and stole the letter box from Cai Zhong's mansion."

"You did this to protect the prince."

"The little one came here for the same purpose as you, to protect the crown prince."

Liu Jue was taken aback for a moment.He didn't expect that Steward Liu was so sloppy that he let the Jinyiwei know about it.

He denied it flatly: "Jin Yiwei didn't teach you anything else, only taught you nonsense?"

"What letter box. This pavilion doesn't know anything about it."

"Also, a little general banner, claiming to protect the crown prince? The toad yawned in such a loud tone."

Somehow, at the critical moment of the showdown, Chang Feng thought of someone, not Shang Ming, Wantong, or Zhu Ji.

It's Nine Girls.

What Nine Girls said in Xiangxi Lane before is very suitable for him now - those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes.

I, Chang Feng, am already a person whose life is at stake.I'm afraid what are you doing Liu Sui?

Thinking of this, Chang Feng stood up directly: "Mr. Liu Ge, Mr. Liu Ge, you are really stupid for doing this."

Butler Liu scolded: "You are bold."

Chang Feng ignored the scolding, and continued: "You stole the box, and you can only ensure that the prince will be cleared of the charge of 'intending treason'."

"But it can't help the prince get rid of the crime of 'improper employment'."

"The group of Concubine Party members will still use the excuse of improper employment to force the emperor to abolish the reserve."

Liu Jue looked at Chang Feng uncertainly, without saying a word.

Chang Feng directly took out the "whitewashing letter" and patted it on the desk.

Chang Feng said: "The content of this letter is that the crown prince scolded Cai Zhong severely, claiming that after collecting evidence of his crime, he would impeach Cai Zhong in front of the emperor."

"Elder Ge can only get the crown prince cleared of all charges by handing over the letter box, swapping this letter with the slander letter, and handing it over to the emperor."

Liu Jue picked up the letter and read the contents carefully.

Then he asked Chang Feng a key question: "Who are you from?"

Chang Feng replied without thinking: "Father Wynn."

Chang Feng couldn't tell Liu Jue that he belonged to Zhu Ji.

Firstly, Zhu Ji was a running dog of Wantong in the open.

On weekdays, if Wantong says his shit is fragrant, Zhu Ji will agree, "I've eaten it, I've eaten it. Mmm, it's delicious!"

If Chang Feng claimed to be Zhu Ji's man, Liu Jue would definitely think that he was sent by the imperial concubine party to harm him.

Second, Zhu Ji's internal identity cannot be exposed.If exposed, Chang Feng will follow suit.

Wynn is different. Everyone in the world knows that he is the prince's confidant.

Those who can get into the cabinet are all good people.

Liu Jue did not believe Chang Feng easily, but asked instead: "How do I know, you were not sent by Concubine Wan Gui to persuade me to hand over the letter box?"

Chang Feng's answer is well-founded: "If I belong to Concubine Wan Gui, Concubine Wan Gui already knows that the letter box is in your hands. Take her as a person"

"She will take advantage of your participation in the imperial gate early court, and directly send the three brothers of the Wan family to surround your mansion with troops. Then slowly search for the letter box."

"You know, our Jinyiwei is good at raiding houses. It's not difficult to copy a letter box."

"When the evidence is found by then, wouldn't it be logical to bring you down with the prince?"

"Why did Concubine Wan Gui send me to deceive you? Wouldn't it be a surprise?"

Liu Jue considered Chang Feng's words carefully.I already believed in eight or nine percent that Chang Feng was on the prince's side.

Liu Jue said: "Maybe, I have already burned the box?"

Chang Feng suddenly laughed.

Liu Jue asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Chang Feng laughed and said, "How stupid do you have to be to burn the letter box! That's the ironclad proof that the imperial concubine party framed the prince."

"On the day the crown prince ascends the throne, you take out the casket, and you will become the number one hero who brought down the Concubine Party."

"When the time comes, overshadowing the second assistant Liu Ji and replacing the first assistant Wantong, isn't it a matter of grasping?"

Liu Jue sat on the chair, playing with the ivory lake pen in his hand, as if thinking about something.

Chang Feng continued: "But you missed a little bit, the imperial concubine party is too powerful. The emperor favors them too much."

"Just the misdemeanor of 'improper employment' may cause the crown prince to lose his position."

"The only way to keep the prince is to hand over the letter box, drop the bag and plant the letter, and let me bring the box back to the Cai Mansion."

Since ancient times, knives, spears, arrows, and crossbows have been weapons, and words have also been weapons.

Against the lame man, Shi Jian and others, the scorpion crossbow is effective.

For Liu Jue, the scorpion crossbow is ineffective, but Yan is more effective.

Butler Liu reminded Liu Jue: "My lord, it's time to delay Yumen's court."

Liu Jue made his own decision.He said to Chang Feng, "Turn your back."

Chang Feng turned his back.

Butler Liu raised his hand and rolled up his robe sleeves.On his arm, there was a single-barreled sleeve arrow tied impressively.The arrow is already aimed at Chang Feng.

Liu Jue shook his head slightly at Butler Liu.

Butler Liu put his hand down.

Liu Jue walked to the bookshelf, squatted down, pressed a switch, and a stone slab on the ground opened.Inside is a small dark compartment two feet square.

In the dark compartment, lay the letter box related to Chang Feng's life.

Liu Jue took out the letter box and closed the secret compartment again.He walked up to Chang Feng and handed the letter box to Chang Feng with both hands.

Chang Feng said: "Thank you, Mr. Ge, this time you saved the prince." After speaking, he took it with both hands.

Liu Jue didn't let go.The four hands of the two people were all placed on the letter box.

Liu Jue told Chang Feng: "Please tell Eunuch Huai En. Minister, Liu Jue, a member of the cabinet, is willing to follow the prince to the death and do the work of a dog and a horse."
