6.17 Yongzheng Secret Discussion, Ziteng Zhongfu

That night, on both sides of the only road from the imperial palace to the official residence in the west of the inner city, forty people silently knelt on the roof, and could even hear the family conversations in the room below them.

"Here we come!" The leader in charge put away the binoculars, raised his right hand and waved it a few times in the air, and all the personnel on both sides entered the state, and quickly loaded the crossbow in their hands, "It seems that the news is reliable."

"Captain, why are you so anxious? Those servants of the Wang family don't know what secrecy is. What's up with Wang Ziteng, they want to let the whole world know, let alone stay in the palace in the middle of the night."

"That's right, the Wang family has almost become the laughing stock of the capital now, so they can use this kind of thing to find self-esteem."

"Hmph, when Wang Ziteng chose to be a traitor, he should have guessed his fate, but it's a pity that he can't do it now, or I will kill him myself."

A hundred paces away, a large sedan chair carried by eight people was moving forward smoothly, the bearers were obviously very good, and the large sedan chair that should have been carried by different people did not shake much.

Wang Ziteng leaned weakly on the back of the chair, remembering the conversation in the imperial study room, even though he had expected it, his heart still throbs when he thinks about it.

"My lord, you have guessed His Majesty's purpose during this tour of the Nine Frontiers. The entire frontier army is almost monolithic, and even the royal family can't reach out. How can this be the way of a minister!

After you go, you must open up the situation as soon as possible. The Zhenbei Army and Zhendong Army can not move for the time being, but at least a few important towns must show something. Don't forget that this is Shangyi. "Wang Feng, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, said lightly.

"I understand!" Wang Ziteng replied quickly.

"You still don't quite understand." Shen Yan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, took up the conversation, "Whether it is the Beijing camp or the frontier army, they are all the army of the emperor, but the Wu Xun families regard these as their own.

The focus of this inspection is on the number of soldiers and the distribution of military pay. You are also from the military, so you must be very clear about how much water is in it.

If it can be done this time, His Majesty's reward will never be less; but if there is no result, you must be very aware of His Majesty's temper. Don't forget, 'thunder, rain and dew are all your favor', go, Uncle Wang! "

"I understand! I will leave!" Wang Ziteng felt that his back was drenched in an instant. He knew exactly how he got the first-class uncle and the control of nine provinces.

What he didn't know was that just as he left the imperial study, Emperor Yongzheng came out from the inner room, followed by Dai Quan who followed suit. Both of them obviously knew about the conversation just now.

"See Your Majesty!" Wang Feng and Shen Yan quickly saluted.

"You two lovers, what do you think of Wang Ziteng's inspection this time?" Emperor Yongzheng asked impatiently.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid there won't be any results." Wang Feng said with a wry smile, "If Wang Ziteng is really capable, he won't be in the field today. He won't be able to accomplish anything at all."

"Your Majesty, sending Prince Teng out is a pathfinding stone." Seeing Emperor Yongzheng's obviously ugly face, Shen Yan, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, quickly answered, "Of course it will be the best if it can be done.

It doesn't matter if he encounters any problems, no matter who makes the move, there will always be clues left, and when the time comes, as long as he follows the clues, he can find a breakthrough no matter what.

Even if you don't get anything, it's nothing more than a pawn, and there is no loss to His Majesty, and the prince has no place on the side of the Supreme Emperor, so it doesn't matter what happens. "

"Alright." Emperor Yongzheng nodded, "Thanks to Lin Aiqing, I have a lot more money these days, and I can do some things anyway, what a pity——

I heard that he made too much trouble in Yangzhou. If it is suitable in a few days, I will arrange for the emperor (Prince Zhongshun Li Shi) to go and have a look. Although the money is very important, it should not affect the overall situation in Jiangnan. "

After such a long delay, Emperor Yongzheng finally found out about Lin Ruhai's return to the noble camp, but as Wei Xu expected, he chose to ignore it in order to obtain silver.

It's just that he doesn't know that today's Yangzhou is advancing with the cooperation of Lin Ruhai and Xu Fei, with the strong support of Xungui's lineage, coupled with Wei Xu's force support, although the sky has not changed, it is no longer what it was before.

"Your Majesty, Lin Ruhai has really tried his best in the past few months." Even if Shen Yan has always disliked nobles, he still has to say something fair, "It's just that his only daughter married Wei Xu, isn't it wrong?" too suitable?"

"It's just a daughter, what influence can it have?" Emperor Yongzheng's attitude also left the two ministers speechless. This was the rule in the feudal era, and women had never had any real meaning.

As for the information he found in private, there is no need for everyone to know.

"Your Majesty, do you need to give Wang Ziteng some bargaining chips?" Wang Feng thought for a while and said, "It's better to ask the Jinyi Army to arrange some people to help protect it." "Alright, when he leaves, I will let Zhao I will arrange a general flag for him, which can be regarded as a statement of my attitude." Emperor Yongzheng nodded, he must be able to do such a beneficial and cost-effective thing.

"That being the case, I will take my leave!" Seeing that everything had been arranged and it was already late, the two ministers wisely chose to leave.

"You two lovers have worked hard!" Emperor Yongzheng nodded and watched the two go out.

"Your Majesty, if it's just the Jinyi Army's attack on the bright side, it may be difficult to guarantee Wang Ziteng's safety." Dai Quan said worriedly.

"How could I not know? Originally, I wanted to let your people watch, but I just listened to the judgment of the two love ministers, so there is no need to do anything extra." Emperor Yongzheng said lightly.

"Your servant is talking too much!" Dai Quan's heart turned cold, and he hurriedly bowed to apologize.

The camera goes back to the West City side.

"How far is it?" Wang Ziteng spoke a little too aggressively under his impatience, "Why are you so slow today? What are you doing to eat?"

"Master, I just entered the West City, and it won't take me long to get there." The servant accompanying the sedan chair outside hurriedly replied, he could tell that the master was in a bad mood.

"Speed ​​up!" Wang Ziteng said impatiently, but for some reason, he always felt restless, "Where are we going?"

"Master, the west city is just past the street ahead, we—ah!" The companion sedan screamed, followed by uninterrupted screams.

"Hurry up and protect the master, there is an ambush!" With a shrill howl, Wang Ziteng heard the leader of his own soldiers, but then he heard the screams, and he might have to change the leader of the soldiers, so he quickly lay down on the sedan chair bottom plate.

The almost non-stop rain of crossbow arrows completely covered the entire street. Even though Wang Ziteng brought more than fifty soldiers and servants, he still had no power to fight back. Several times someone tried to rush out to report the news and was shot off his horse.

This is because there are only [-] people covering the shooting, and there are ten crossbowmen who act as "snipers" and "make up the knife" in real time for some people who escape, evade or fight back.

Meanwhile, on the roof.

"Captain, it's time to withdraw. This place is too close to the imperial palace. It's only a matter of tea time for the Imperial Forest Army to send people over. If we are entangled by them, we're afraid we will have a lot of trouble."

"Tell the brothers, retreat after another round of volleys, we don't want to kill Wang Ziteng, it's fine if we have this intention, we don't want to let the brothers lose their lives."

"It would be easier to kill Wang Ziteng. I was sure to turn him into a hedgehog in the first round, but it's a pity that the young master doesn't allow it!"

Soon, everyone on the roof scattered over the wall and disappeared into the densely populated residential area of ​​the inner city, but the miserable faces left behind made the faces of the first batch of Jinyi soldiers who came over turn pale.

"What's going on?" After more than half an hour, Zhao Quancai, the official of the Jinyi Army, hurried over after receiving the news, "Who was ambushed?"

"My lord, he is the new Lord King of the Nine Provinces." A hundred households of the Jinyi army came up to report, "He was not injured, but passed out in the sedan chair. A doctor has been arranged for the humble position."

"Wang Ziteng!" Zhao Quan breathed a sigh of relief, obviously not taking him too seriously, "Let the doctor take a good look, have you figured out the specific situation?"

"My lord, you'd better take a look for yourself!" The same Baihu just stepped back and said with a wry smile.

"Hiss—at least thirty crossbows, this is that group." Zhao Quan's face changed, but he still held back and said nothing, "You guys deal with it here, I will report to the palace."

"My lord!" Bai Hu hurriedly stopped him, "The humble job doesn't look right, Lord Wang's personal servants have nothing to live for, and the few remaining people don't need to be rescued.

However, these crossbow arrows basically bypassed the owner. You can see that there are only two arrows on this sedan chair, and they are disorderly. There is a high probability that they are stray arrows. A blind cat has encountered a dead mouse. "

"Oh?" Zhao Quan's eyes lit up, and he nodded to Baihu with satisfaction, "Just send Mr. Wang back, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

"Understandable!"
