In the Qianqing Palace, Chongzhen, who had just retired from the early court, was reading the memorials, his brows were twisted into knots. Endless natural and man-made disasters, bad news like snow flakes came one after another, drought, plague, military disasters... He couldn't breathe under the constant pressure.
Hearing Changyu's request to see him, his expression finally improved. After all, this confidant eunuch could always bring him good news.
But at first glance, I heard that it turned out to be a major event involving nobles teaming up to assassinate an internal official. Is this good news?
On second thought, of course!
"Have you been injured?" Chongzhen looked at Chang Yu worriedly.
"Forty-two stab wounds, two arrow wounds." Chang Yu said and began to undress. Although he has super self-healing ability, because the wound was deep and the time was short, even though the bleeding had stopped and was healing, it was still shocking. .
Seeing this, Chongzhen stood up and smashed the dragon case with a clang. He said angrily: "You are so audacious. They dare to kill my lucky general. If I lose you, I will kill them all!"
"Your Majesty, they have an iron ticket to avoid death!" Chang Yu said softly.
"So what!"
Chongzhen yelled, breathing heavily. He must have been extremely angry. He knew that Chang Yu was taking the blame for him, and that someone wanted to kill him. When he heard the news, Chongzhen felt a little complacent. It's the art of emperor control. , it’s all about balance, which is good.
But when he saw someone really taking action and almost killing him, he couldn't accept it. Chang Yu couldn't die, because as he said, he was a lucky general. Ming's life-saving straw rope could make money and In a war, if you die, where can you find something so easy?
"Your Majesty, do you think these wounds on my body look like silver?" Chang Yu saw Chongzhen so angry, whether it was for business or personal reasons, he was still a little moved in his heart.
"You..." Chongzhen was startled and sighed in his heart. This boy actually thought of me. He was so smart, so loyal, and always thinking about the royal family.
"Are you willing?" Chongzhen walked over and put on his clothes himself.
"There is no difference between killing and not killing this kind of waste. On the contrary, if we kill people and make the royal family lose face, it is better to use the waste to make some contributions to the country!" Chang Yu said lightly, sighing secretly in his heart, Chongzhen really He is a cunning person. It is obvious that he has thought of the key since he first heard the news. His words "you are willing" are already an admission. Now it is just a matter of smooth sailing.
"What a good use of waste." Chongzhen laughed loudly: "The Dongchang has full authority to handle this matter, the sooner the better." He patted Chang Yu on the shoulder: "You can handle the matter, I don't worry!"
"My lord, take your orders!" Chang Yu bowed his hands and resigned.
Chongzhen watched him slowly withdraw with joy on his face. This is a good knife, a good knife!
The monarch and his ministers only met each other over a cup of tea and barely exchanged a few words, but their minds were already in agreement, and the fate of the Marquis of Yangwu and the Marquis of Linhuai was sealed.
After leaving Qianqing Gate, I happened to see Fang San running from a distance: "Mr. Factory, the prince is in the east palace."
Chang Yu hummed and said, "Go to Dongchang Hutong to send a message to Chunxiang." Then he whispered a few words in his ear.
Fang San turned and left.
"Eunuch Chang, Eunuch Chang..." Chang Yuzhen was walking to Duanben Palace. A eunuch ran over from a distance, looked around, and whispered: "Eunuch Chang, someone asked me to send you a message. ".
"Huh?" Chang Yu looked confused.
"Uncle Guo asked me to send you a message..." the eunuch said quickly, but was interrupted by Chang Yu: "Which Uncle Guo?"
"Uncle Zhou Guo..." the young eunuch quickly replied: "Uncle Zhou Guo said he wanted to invite you to my house as a guest..."
Chang Yu frowned, stared at the eunuch and asked, "What's going on?"
The eunuch couldn't resist his sharp eyes and couldn't help but tremble: "Eunuch Chang, a while ago Zhou Guozhang wanted to enter the palace to see the queen several times, but he was rejected. Later, he asked to see the emperor and was also rejected. I heard that Si Nu was very sick. Bedridden, I sent someone to send a message to the palace, but the queen still refused to see her... This uncle Zhou may be..."
Humph, Chang Yu rolled his eyes and raised the corner of his mouth: "Go tell that uncle and tell him to get lost. I don't have time." After saying that, leaving the messenger eunuch stupidly there, he turned and left.
invite to a meal?
Pooh!
How could Chang Yu not know about that? Empress Zhou knew from the prince's dream that her mother's family was so cruel that she gritted her teeth and determined to secretly sever ties with Zhou Kui.
Zhou Kui usually relies on Queen Zhou to dominate. What will he do if he loses this support? Seeing his daughter becoming more and more neglected, he suffered a big loss and was humiliated the day before, so he must look to his daughter to make the decision. , but he was rejected after asking for an audience several times, and he resorted to a few big tricks, pretending to be sick, and asking his wife to play the family card and kneel down in front of the palace, but it still didn't work, and even Queen Zhou ordered the eunuchs in the palace to be killed. , whenever the Zhou family asks for an audience, don’t come and report it, ignore it!
Zhou Kui panicked and asked around. He learned that the eunuch whom he hated so much that he gritted his teeth was actually very close to the queen. A man can bend and stretch. He decided to save the country by going through a curve and first find a way to meet Queen Zhou to resolve the misunderstanding. Besides, the feud with the eunuch will only last a long time!
So he asked his eldest son to come forward to invite Chang Yu in an attempt to win over and use him to help him meet Queen Zhou.
However, the little eunuch was extremely smart and could see through his little thoughts at a glance, so he directly replied: Get out.
It may seem disrespectful, but in reality it is just a backup plan. He will try his best to anger Zhou Kui and make you do impulsive things. Only then will he have the opportunity to take advantage. After all, the father-in-law's family is the real big deal. The eunuch was already three feet old.
The prince was already waiting outside the east palace gate. When he saw Chang Yu arriving, he hurriedly came forward and said, "I heard that you were assassinated last night. Were you injured?"
Chang Yu sighed: "It was as thrilling as charging into battle, and I almost couldn't come back."
ah! Zhu Ci was shocked: "Who could put you in such danger!"
He admired Chang Yu too much. In the past few days, when he had nothing to do, he went to the eunuch of Gongziying to talk to him about Taiyuan. Every time he heard that Chang Yu was fighting against the thieves, he would get goosebumps with excitement, thinking Chang Yu's thousands of troops are like entering a deserted land, so what's the point of fearing a few killers?
"It's easy to hide with open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows. The gangsters used bows and arrows to sneak attack. Dozens of people were sniped and killed. I fought alone. If my subordinates hadn't come to the rescue in time, hehe..." Chang Yu smiled bitterly.
"The gangsters are so arrogant. They also dare to assassinate the dignified governor of the East Factory." Zhu Ci?R gasped, his face flushed: "Have you ever tortured the mastermind behind the scenes? I want to see my father, and I must let those The gangsters and the masterminds behind the scenes were all slaughtered..."
Seeing his reaction, Chang Yu was extremely moved. After all, this young man was different from his father. He had immense trust, admiration, and even brotherhood for Chang Yu. This seemed a bit abnormal and impossible, but in fact, he had great trust and admiration for Chang Yu. Now, he is Chang Yu's crazy fan.
"This matter has been reported to the emperor. Everything is under control. The prince can rest assured!"
"Kill him, be sure to kill them!" Zhu Ci?R was still furious and upset.
Chang Yu chuckled and patted him on the shoulder: "The worst punishment for hating someone is not to kill him! There are better ones."
"What is that, oh! Peeling the skin and cramping, dismembering the body by five horses, right?" Zhu Ci?R's eyes shone, and he couldn't help but shuddered: "It's so cruel, but it's good to relieve your anger!"
Chang Yu laughed and waved his hand gently: "It would be worse for him than life and death!"
"That's..." Zhu Ci was startled.
"Your Highness will understand later." Chang Yu smiled slightly: "I'm going to meet someone at the Ministry of War first. Your Highness, please go with me."
"Shi Kefa?" Zhu Ci?R's mood slowly calmed down.
Chang Yu nodded: "Let's go, it's getting late, there's a lot going on today."
