Everyone around Chongzhen knew the importance of Hu Yunqing. Anyone who dared to touch him would be dissatisfied with his longevity.
"I limit you to find the whereabouts of Hu Yunqing before this evening. What I want is at any cost. If you can't find it, I don't want to see you again!"
His identity was somewhat special, otherwise Chongzhen would have looked for it personally. Thinking that what Zhu Si said made sense, there was no need for him to capture Hu Yunqing at the critical moment when he first became the commander.
"Understood! I'll go now. Your Majesty, please return to the palace and wait for news from me."
When Zhu Si heard that Chongzhen had given him the last chance, he quickly stood up and said something, and then led people to find Hu Yunqing.
Then all the royal guards in the city were sent out and started looking for the portrait.
"Sir, these two people said they had seen the people in the portrait."
Two hours after the mission was released, there was news about Hu Yunqing.
A man from a hundred households came over with two royal guards.
"Tell me, where have you seen the person in the portrait?"
There was not much time left for him. If he could not find Hu Yunqing again, he would have to die. When he heard that someone knew the clue, he asked him anxiously.
"Sir, this was the person who followed you when you drank too much."
"Then what?"
"Wang Qianhu asked us to intercept him. After questioning him, we found that this person was very abnormal. We also found several thousand taels of banknotes from his body, and then we. We went."
"Say, what did you do!"
Zhu Si was going crazy with anger. Looking at the hesitation, he could imagine Hu Yunqing's fate in his mind. He angrily pulled out a knife and put it on the other person's neck to question.
Jin Yiwei wrongfully accused people, and there were not a few wrongful and unjust cases. Many prisoners were killed on trumped-up charges.
"Later Qianhu said that he would be sent to prison to see if he could get any useful clues out of his mouth."
Feeling the coldness on his neck, he quickly spoke truthfully.
"ah!"
When he heard that Hu Yunqing was sent to prison, Zhu Si slashed hard with his sword and cut off the man's head. The other people saw this and quickly begged for mercy.
Zhu Si showed no mercy at all when facing these scum of Jinyiwei, and sent them all to the west with one blow.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Several hundred households who followed Zhu Si were a little afraid of the current Zhu Si when they saw Zhu Si killing people directly.
Jinyiwei has internal regulations that do not allow internal killings. If there is any guilt, he will be executed first and then punished.
"Gather the men and follow me to the prison!"
Zhu Si didn't care so much now, and led the people towards the imperial prison.
"You did very well."
The chief assistant looked at Wang Xiao in front of him and nodded with satisfaction, feeling proud of the step he had taken in his dark chess piece.
"Master Chief Assistant, I can't go back to Jinyiwei now. Please take me in."
Wang Xiao knelt directly on the ground. He could never hide the things he had done. According to the rules of Jinyiwei, only one of them would die. The only one who could save him was the chief assistant in front of him.
"Don't worry, you are the most important part of my plan, I will never give up on you."
With such a good chess piece as Wang Xiao, how could the chief assistant give up so easily.
"Thank you, sir."
"Don't thank me too early. I don't have idle people under my command. I helped you get the position of Qianhu Jinyiwei. I didn't ask you to provide me with this information. If so, it would be a waste."
After hearing what the chief assistant said, Wang Xiao's eyes lit up, and he was unwilling to leave Jinyiwei. After all, it was the place where he had stayed for eight or nine years.
If he could stay in Jinyiwei, why would he come here?
"I wonder what you can do? As long as I continue to stay in Jinyiwei, I am willing to go through fire and water for you."
"As long as the person who suspected you is dead and the Jinyiwei are all yours, are you still afraid that what you did will be exposed at that time?"
The chief assistant glanced at Wang Xiao and said half of his words.
"Sir, I know what to do."
Wang Xiao carefully reflected on Shoufu's words, and finally came to a sudden realization.
"Go down and do it."
"Father, you are so clever!"
"Take some men to help, and if he fails, let him shut his mouth forever!"
After Wang Xiao left, the chief assistant's son came out from behind. Regarding this matter, the chief assistant didn't believe that he could succeed at all, so he asked someone to prepare a back-up plan.
Zhu Si led his people to the imperial prison. The guards outside the gate saw that the commander was coming and quickly opened the gate.
"Who's in charge here?"
Zhu Si was not familiar with the imperial edict and asked the subordinate next to him.
"Hurry up and call you, Song Baihu, and say that the commander wants to ask questions!"
The subordinate thought for a while and walked out and said.
"grown ups."
"Have you arrested anyone recently?"
Zhu Si asked Song Baihu anxiously without mincing words.
"Yes, he is the prisoner sent by your Majesty the Commander."
"Where is she now? Take me there quickly!"
Hearing that it was something related to him recently, it must be Hu Yunqing who was arrested.
"Sir, please come this way."
The group of people entered the prison and came to a quiet cell.
"Sir, the person you are looking for is here."
Song Baihu stopped and said to Zhu Si behind him.
Zhu Si looked at Hu Yunqing sleeping in the cell from a distance, his clothes were clean, and he looked at Song Baihu with some doubts.
I have never heard of anyone who went to prison not being tortured for such a long time.
Seeing that Hu Yunqing was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir, I have something to report to you."
"Sir, the environment here is not good, come with me."
Seeing that the prison was very dark and there were many people around, he took Zhu Si to his room.
"What do you have to report?"
Zhu Si sat on the chair, wanting to hear what a hundred households were interested in.
"Sir, do you still remember Zhao Canjun?"
"Remember, why mention him? Isn't his matter already settled?"
When Song Baihu mentioned Zhao Canjun, he immediately lost interest, thinking that he would have some valuable news. A worthless dead man had no value to him.
After saying that, he stood up and left, letting Hu Yunqing go. In this way, I can finally communicate with the emperor.
"Sir, there is something fishy about Zhao Shenjun's death. There is a rebellion within our Jinyi Guards."
When Song Baihu finished speaking, Zhu Si, who was about to leave, stopped. He turned to look at the other party and asked.
"who!"
Jin Yiwei must be monolithic within it. If someone rebels, it will be terrible.
"The commander also knows this person, he is your good brother Wang Xiao!"
"Impossible, what evidence do you have to prove it's him! Believe it or not, I will kill you right now!"
