People are in martial arts, refuse to show bad

Chapter 194 Cao Zhengchun + Wei Zhongxian VS Zhu Wuli

Su Li and Cheng Shifei were both practicing martial arts with their eyes closed, but the Dongchang not far away was in a state of explosion.

Outside the prison, Cao Zhengchun and Wei Zhongxian looked at the Jin Yiwei men kneeling on the ground in front of them with livid faces.

Although Dongchang is in charge of Tianlao, there are also personnel arranged by Jinyiwei to patrol.

This group of Jin Yiwei is nominally under the leadership of Dongchang.

"Envoys from various countries have arrived one after another. Do you want Dongchang to be a big conspicuous package?!"

Cao Zhengchun was furious.

There is no airtight wall in the world, even if he ordered not to reveal what happened today, it would not help.

He had already imagined how many people would make fun of him at the banquet soon.

When the emperor gets married, envoys from all over the world come to congratulate him and hold a banquet to entertain him.

In such happy days, happiness belongs to others, and all that is left to him, Cao Zhengchun, is embarrassment...

Cao Zhengchun suppressed the anger in his heart and did not kill the man in front of him. Instead, he looked at Wei Zhongxian aside.

Cao Zhengchun narrowed his eyes: "Eunuch Wei, if our memory is correct, it was Eunuch Wei's turn to arrange the guards for yesterday's prison, right?"

Cao Zhengchun had many capable people under his command, but Wei Zhongxian also had Liu Xi helping him.

The two men took turns to arrange the duty of the Tianlao. In the first few days, Cao Shaoqin or Cao Zhengchun came in person, but in the next few days, it might be Wei Zhongxian and Liu Xi.

According to the time, Wei Zhongxian should be in charge of the recent Tianlao duty.

Wei Zhongxian narrowed his eyes slightly. How could he not know that Cao Zhengchun wanted to pass the blame? After a long time, he smiled and said: "Eunuch Cao, yesterday the envoy from the Izumo Kingdom arrived in the capital. Eunuch Liu and our family all went to the State Guesthouse to be busy. After all the busy work, our family thought that Eunuch Cao would arrange for someone else to be on duty when he saw us going to the State Guesthouse. Who would have thought... After all, Eunuch Cao is the governor of the East Factory!"

Wei Zhongxian's words that smelled like tea made Cao Zhengchun frown.

What a bastard, now you think about it, he is the owner of Dongchang Factory?
Wei Zhongxian's meaning is very obvious, that is, Cao Zhengchun is the person in charge of Dongchang. No matter how he shirks his responsibility, Cao Zhengchun cannot escape the involvement.

Cao Zhengchun waved his hand, looked at the Jinyi Guard Qianhu who was kneeling on the ground, and asked: "I'm asking you! Has any felon escaped from the prison?"

The man hurriedly handed over his hand: "Report to the Governor, only one person escaped from the entire sky prison. My subordinates guessed that the person who broke into the sky prison last night should have come because of that boy!"

Cao Zhengchun frowned: "That boy, which boy? If you can't even understand what you're saying, our family doesn't want to keep you and waste food!"

The man hurriedly said: "For the information of the governor, that man has no name. He is a young gangster bought by Eunuch Sun from the imperial study room. He is going to cleanse himself today. Who would have thought that he was actually taken away last night?" Got it!"

Cao Zhengchun fell silent when he heard this. The palace had a habit of buying people to be eunuchs, and he knew this.

Some people were sold in by human traffickers. The people in the palace didn't mind this, as long as they were strong and healthy. It was naturally not surprising that Eunuch Sun didn't ask for the person's name.

Just as Cao Zhengchun was about to order him to draw a portrait of the boy and then search for him throughout the city, the Jinyi Guard Qianhu spoke again: "Master Governor, my subordinates also discovered a tunnel from the cell where the boy was held, leading directly to the sky prison. On the bottom floor, there are broken chains and bones lying on the ground. I have never heard of such a place in the sky prison..."

After the Jin Yiwei Qianhu said that, Cao Zhengchun's eyes widened immediately, and he walked forward directly, pointed his bell-like nostrils at the Qianhu, and spitted out: "What did you say? Gu Santong escaped? !”

After Cao Zhengchun said this, there was a smile on his face and a wave of longing: "You stupid Zhu Tiedan, our family has to create trouble for you!"

The Qianhu of Jinyiwei looked confused. Except for Wei Zhongxian, Liu Xi and Cao Shaoqin, no one else knew that there was a ninth-level prison!

Not to mention Gu Santong, who was imprisoned on the ninth floor of the Heavenly Prison. Only a few people knew about this matter.

"Lord Governor, my subordinates are going to search the whole city now!"

Seeing the solemn expressions of Cao Zhengchun and others, the Qianhu household knew that the ancient three links were of great importance, and they were about to summon people to search the capital.

But who knows, Cao Zhengchun, who was still clamoring for a city-wide manhunt just now, suddenly seemed to have changed: "Okay! You don't have to worry about this matter anymore. Of course, someone will worry about it!"

If Cao Zhengchun hadn't been his immediate boss, Qianhu would have just said: "If we want to laugh, can we just smile openly? It's too ugly to look like a smile but not a smile!"

He was just imagining things like this, and he didn't dare to say them.

Cao Zhengchun put away the smile on his face and looked at Wei Zhongxian: "Eunuch Wei, let's go into the palace for a walk?"

Wei Zhongxian knew very well that Cao Zhengchun was going to make Zhu Wulan uncomfortable. It happened that his primary goal in coming to Dongchang was also this. Seizing power with Cao Zhengchun was just his second personal goal.

He could still tell the difference between the light and the heavy.

In the palace, Zhu Yiyi walked briskly and quickly entered Jingyu's study.

At dawn, a eunuch entered Hulong Villa and said that His Majesty had an invitation. Zhu Mingwu did not dare to delay, so he used Qinggong and went straight to the palace.

"My minister pays homage to His Majesty, Your Majesty Sheng An!"

Zhu Wuyi bowed and said, he is your Majesty's imperial uncle, and he is not allowed to kneel before the emperor.

The young Emperor Zhengde sat high on the dragon chair and nodded with a smile: "Hello! Uncle Emperor, I am calling you here because I have something to tell you!"

Listening to Emperor Zhengde's words, Zhu Wuwu quickly raised his hands and said: "No matter what your Majesty orders, even if the humble minister is shattered to pieces, he will definitely fulfill your Majesty's entrustment!"

Emperor Zhengde laughed: "Uncle Huang is indeed a loyal minister, but I don't want him to be shattered to pieces. I also hope that Uncle Huang's Hulong Villa will continue to serve the country! As for what it is about... Eunuch Cao, tell me!"

After hearing this, Zhu Wuli looked at Cao Zhengchun who was aside.

Cao Zhengchun smiled, and then said: "This matter has nothing to do with Your Majesty, but a matter that happened during the time of the late Emperor... Let's get it straight. Yesterday, the envoy from the Izumo Kingdom arrived in the capital. According to His Majesty's order, all the elites of our East Factory were I went out and worked at the State Guesthouse all day long, so I gave Xiaoxiao a chance to sneak into the Tianlao, and Gu Santong, who was imprisoned on the ninth floor of the Tianlao, was robbed by them!"

After Cao Zhengchun finished speaking, Zhu Wanwang instantly straightened up, his brows furrowed, and his murderous intent was revealed.

"Why don't you send people from Dongchang to search the whole city?"

Zhu Wulan asked sharply.

Cao Zhengchun, who was already prepared for Zhu's ignoring attitude, was not angry and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

"When Gu Santong was rescued, I also thought about sending people to search the whole city, but thinking of His Majesty's great cause, I gave up this idea." Zhu Mingwang looked at Cao Cao with a smile on his face. Zhengchun felt nauseated in his heart. The gloating in Cao Zhengchun's eyes couldn't be more obvious.

Gu Santong escaped. If there is a chance in the future, Gu Santong will definitely be the first to come to him.

What kind of idea did Cao Zhengchun have that Zhu Mingwu would not have thought of?

Cao Zhengchun is not qualified to play tricks with him!
Before Zhu Wulan could speak, Cao Zhengchun said with a smile: "In the past, the late emperor was so talented and strategic that he wanted to reconcile with Jianghu, so he sent the prince to capture Gu Santong, who killed [-] masters of the eight sects. After being brought to justice, what is the result? Can these people in the world feel any gratitude to His Majesty, the court, and the Ming Dynasty because of this?"

Cao Zhengchun said, Zhu Wuwang looked confused, and Emperor Zhengde's eyes were full of sharp meaning.

Cao Zhengchun spoke from his heart!
Many emperors in the past dynasties wanted to reconcile with Jianghu and then tried to use Jianghu's power for their own use, but those in the martial arts world had no sense of shame at all and regarded the court as nothing.

Emperor Zhengde believed that he was different from the previous emperors. He wanted to destroy the entire Ming Dynasty. Things like martial arts can exist, but they can only exist in the hands of the government and let the army learn!

"Your Majesty, what I mean is that Gu Santong ran away. You know, there are many sects in the world who have enmity with Gu Santong. If we can tell the news about Gu Santong's escape, Let him out. Besides, Gu Santong was seriously injured but still possesses the magical power of indestructibility. I believe that those so-called martial arts sects will definitely not be able to hold back and search for the whereabouts of Gu Santong!"

"At that time, there will definitely be another dispute in the world!"

Cao Zhengchun said with a smile: "Your Majesty, letting Gu Santong leave will be more conducive to your Majesty's plan!"

Zhu Wuwu frowned. He no longer wanted to refute Cao Zhengchun. This guy had obviously been prepared for a long time. He spoke one word after another, obviously coming prepared.

Sure enough, Cao Zhengchun blocked him with his last words.

Cao Zhengchun said this: "Your Majesty, the court also made a lot of efforts to capture Gu Santong. Gu Santong was imprisoned for 20 years. He must have lost his mind and would probably take action against the royal family. But Lao Nu and Wei My father-in-law is confident that as long as the two of us live for one day, we will defend His Majesty’s safety to the death!”

Cao Zhengchun winked at Wei Zhongxian who was standing aside. Wei Zhongxian immediately stood up. They had rehearsed this scene no less than ten times this morning. Next, it was his turn to say the words: "Yes! Your Majesty, please Don’t worry, as long as the old slave is still breathing, Gu Santong will definitely not hurt a single dragon beard of His Majesty!”

"In addition, I think Gu Santong will not come to His Majesty, but will go to Shenhou to cause trouble. After all, it was Shenhou who personally captured Gu Santong in the first place."

Wei Zhongxian said and looked at Zhu Wuwu.

"What are you talking about, Eunuch Wei? The Lord God is unparalleled in his loyalty. He is even willing to die for your majesty and for the sake of the Ming Dynasty! Being able to instigate various sects and Gu Santong to kill each other is beneficial to your majesty and the court. How can the Lord God be afraid? That's a mere ancient three links?"

Cao Zhengchun answered immediately, but Zhu Wuli didn't say a word. He was roasted on the fire by Cao Zhengchun and Wei Zhongxian's words.

Zhu Mingli's expression remained unchanged, but he was cursing his mother in his heart, but it didn't matter, they didn't send people to look for him, he just sent people to look for him, and he would kill him after he found Gu Santong!

Just say that Gu Santong came to trouble him, so he killed him!

Zhu Wuli had never thought of killing him before. Firstly, Gu Santong's martial arts was terrifying, and secondly, he wanted to obtain the magical power of indestructibility from Gu Santong.

But now he changed his mind, especially when Su Li said that he could find the remaining two heavenly fragrant cardamom.

He didn't want Gu Santong and Su Xin to meet.

But just when Zhu Wuwu had just made up his mind, Wei Zhongxian spoke again: "What Eunuch Cao said is true. The Lord God is unparalleled in his loyalty and righteousness, and he will definitely do this!"

"More than that! If our family is a divine prince, even if we meet Gu Santong in the future, our family will not kill him. We will let people from various sects cause trouble for Gu Santong and use Gu Santong to kill a few more Masters from various sects, wouldn’t this be more beneficial to His Majesty?”

Cao Zhengchun said again.

Zhu Wuwu smiled and nodded, looking at Cao Zhengchun as if he were looking at a dead person.

Dead eunuch!
Only Gu Santong can kill him, so he has to find ways to save Gu Santong's life?
"For His Majesty and for the Ming Dynasty, the Lord Shen must be willing to bear these grievances, right?"

Cao Zhengchun finally asked Zhu Wuwu his soul.

Zhu Mingwu didn't know how to answer, and the emperor's voice also sounded: "Thank you for your hard work, uncle!"

What more can he say?
Zhu Wuwu was very addicted to playing the role of a loyal minister, and now he was into the act. When he heard this sentence, he spoke without thinking: "It is the duty of a humble minister to share your Majesty's worries, and I will not give up even if I die..."

After saying these words, Zhu Wuwu already wanted to slap himself in the mouth. Why did he answer so quickly? !
The emperor clapped his hands and applauded: "You are indeed my uncle! In that case, Eunuch Cao, you can draft an edict on my behalf. The evidence is still unclear about Gu Santong's murder. Now that he is old and frail, If he is suffering from a vicious disease, he will be released and this will be announced to the world!"

Cao Zhengchun narrowed his eyes and said yes directly.

It is still unclear what the evidence is. For the eight sects, Gu Santong is a definite murderer. When the news spreads, it not only preserves the face of the royal family, but also lets people in the various sects know the news of Gu Santong's release. .

Also, the most important thing is that Gu Santong is old and frail and suffers from bad diseases.

This is a clear plan to encourage masters from various sects to seize the opportunity to seize the indestructible power of Vajra!
The imperial court is afraid that the world will not be in chaos.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction. He was just trying to find some excitement in the world. Apart from the one thing he was planning, the current affairs were somewhat interesting and could only serve as an appetizer.

"Have arrangements been made for the envoys from various countries?"

While everyone was there, Emperor Zhengde spoke.

Cao Zhengchun quickly replied: "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. The Six Gates, led by Guo Juxia, are stepping up patrols in the capital to ensure that no young people will affect the rest of the envoys from various countries. The Lord Shen is also I have sent two spies from heaven and earth to monitor all countries, lest they secretly spy on my Ming Dynasty in the name of congratulations!"

"Dongchang arranged for many eunuchs to enter the state guesthouse to serve, and many spies were mixed with them. They secretly monitored the envoys from various countries together with Hulong Villa. As for Eunuch Yu and Eunuch Wang from Xichang, they are responsible for their work together with our family. Palace guards!”

Cao Zhengchun briefly explained the arrangements discussed by various ministries, and the emperor nodded repeatedly: "Envoys from all over the world are gathered here. We want to show the style of our Ming Dynasty. We must not neglect the envoys from all over the world!"

Emperor Zhengde said solemnly, and everyone agreed. As for the matter of murdering the lives of envoys from various countries, Emperor Zhengde had never thought about it.

Not to mention what kind of changes would happen if the envoys from various countries died in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhengde would not take action against the envoys from various countries if they came to congratulate him on his wedding.

This is too immoral!

"Everyone, go make arrangements!"

Emperor Zhengde waved his hand and signaled everyone to go to work. Wei Zhongxian and Zhu Yiwu both retreated. As for Cao Zhengchun, he stayed behind Emperor Zhengde.
