The room fell silent for a moment and I could almost hear my own heartbeat!
I was indeed confused by Liao Jianzhong's words, and even a little scared. My grandfather has always taught us that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Perhaps because my family has been practicing medicine for generations, and doctors are parents, they always feel that everything they do is natural. They often feel happy when they cure a patient, but they don’t care about the patient’s life. Many thanks. Therefore, I don't have much expectation of reward for saving people, but saving people is a good thing, not to mention saving the daughter of the Marquis's family. As Xiang Chong said, this matter is a great honor for Jin Yiwei. The reason why I say this is because I heard that the current emperor does not like Jin Yiwei and Dongchang. Jin Yiwei has always been looked down upon, so that Jin Yiwei has been looked down upon for more than ten years. Everything is done from top to bottom, so it's a good thing that he can avoid being reprimanded by the emperor. Everyone in the world knows that the emperor has only one wife, and the emperor obeys the queen. The queen always adhered to the image of a good wife and did not interfere in political affairs, but there were always things that favored her mother's family. The queen's brothers all took advantage of her. The emperor not only treated her favorably, but also loved her. I accidentally saved Miss Ning Xi. I guess the emperor will know about it. This will undoubtedly add glory to the Jin Yiwei. Is it wrong? Of course, a large part of these things were secretly told to me by Xiang Chong afterwards. Xiang Chong hoped that we would become prosperous because of this. Of course, he did get promoted, and I only thought about saving people, whether I was a doctor before or a Jinyiwei now. I can do it instinctively, I really don’t have any other ideas.
Liao Jianzhong seemed to understand my thoughts and said in a deep voice: "You are not wrong in saving people, but we have ignored who is the person who is planning to assassinate the daughter of the Marquis?!"
That day, Gu Dayou rushed back with Xiang, his face full of dissatisfaction, saying that he had been bullied by the people in Dongchang. They were ordered to investigate the assassination of the daughter of the Hou Yefu, so they did it openly. , looking for the fortune teller. They set their target around the Marquis's house to see if there were any other people waiting, looking for some clues. The most important thing was to ask the Marquis if he had offended anyone recently. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived near the Marquis Mansion, he met Silun. He was supposed to be in Nanzhen Fusi, but he said that he was seconded to Dongchang. Gu Dayou said that he came to investigate, but Silun tried his best to stop him, saying that this matter was They are responsible, and this is the arrangement of the Supervisor of Ceremonies. This inevitably makes people suspicious. Jin Yiwei is obviously in charge, but Dongchang intervenes. Although Silun is on duty in Dongchang, he is also from Nanzhen Fusi. Everyone analyzed at the time and believed that Dongchang wanted to take credit, but it was just He despises Silen even more as a person.
After receiving this case, Liao Jianzhong thought, apart from Xiang Chong, it was me and a few servants from the Houye Mansion who had seen the fortune teller. Therefore, Liao Jianzhong was more thoughtful and arranged for me to be a secret agent. As expected, overnight, Xiang Chong was killed. Come to think of it, it is indeed related to this matter.
A vague figure gradually appeared in my mind, but I felt it was impossible. As Liao Jianzhong said, he handed me a waist badge. I was stunned. That was my waist badge. It was taken away by that woman. How could it be in Liao Jianzhong's hands?
Facing my doubts, Liao Jianzhong smiled bitterly and said, "This is another matter. Not only Liu Qingfeng, but also Yu Qi, the reason why they were able to escape was because someone spoke and let them go." "Si. Ceremony supervisor?" I blurted out. This was also everyone's guess. Liao Jianzhong nodded excitedly and said: "This waist badge was sent in by someone else. I am a dignified and well-dressed guard, walking on the ground, but we can't hold anything accountable. It's all an exchange. I I don’t even know what to say!”
"So many things happened that night. Liu Qingfeng ran away, Yu Qi ran away, Bao Song was killed, Xiang Chong was killed, and Dongchang intervened in the assassin investigation of Hou Ye's Mansion. We could have done a lot of things, but now look, hey , forget it." Liao Jianzhong felt a little regretful, then raised his head and said: "But there is one thing, although there are some clues at present, but I still can't figure it out, it is the matter of the assassin. To be honest with you, I and a few All brothers are thinking of you, you may be the next one to rush, so you must be careful!"
I just felt a chill running down my spine. I wasn’t even eighteen years old yet. Could this be it? I didn’t dare to think that I went out recklessly that night. Not only did I lose my belt, but I also ran to Dongchang and witnessed the murder of Bao Song. , I can sit here now, even I dare not think about how serious the situation is.
Liao Jianzhong looked at me and said: "Actually, you are still a child and the road is still long, but your experience these days is indeed extraordinary. Jinyiwei pays attention to loyalty and friendship. Nowadays, the change of the imperial court is inevitable. Jinyiwei's The future is also unpredictable, so catching the real culprit is something I must complete in these few days. You were entrusted to me by Eunuch Zhang, and I must protect you, but sometimes, I have too many things to do. You can't take care of it, so you have to be careful. I've seen your skills, they're pretty good, so take care of yourself!"
I was very touched and thought that giving in would make him laugh, not to mention that I might not have any problems. I handed my hands over and said, "I'm just a wild boy from the country. I'm so lucky to be taken care of by you. It's true that I'm afraid of death." , But when things come to a close, I am willing to take it easy." Liao Jianzhong smiled and said: "What are you talking about? Like you, I come from the countryside, but one must be good at seizing opportunities! The matter may not be that serious, It’s just that I thought more about it, and I should be cautious. The capital is different from other places. There are three religions and nine schools, and there are people of all kinds. Although we are what others call the best, only we know the hard work involved."
After a pause, he said with a smile: "I heard that you went to prison to save a person?" I knew it was Gao Dezheng I was talking about, so I quickly told him what happened. He still smiled and said: "This is a common thing, you Don’t be too nervous, it’s just that you have collected so little money, and I’m afraid it’s not even enough to answer Jin Yiwei correctly. You will be the big brother in the future, haha, let’s do this, I will give you a banknote, and you can share it with the brothers!”
When I heard this, I was immediately dumbfounded! It turns out that everything about me is in the eyes of Liao Jianzhong. He didn't mind, and just said lightly: "I am the same as you. What I do every day is recorded by others, even Nanzhen Fusi. However, this time They did not interfere, they simply wrote a report. This is how we work in this industry. Sometimes we monitor others, and sometimes we are monitored by others. Remember, being cautious is better than anything else!"
The generous smile on his face was like a ray of sunshine coming into a dark room, and I was gradually infected by him. Life always begins with ignorance. It is normal to fall and get up, as long as you work hard!
Xiang Chong's death made everyone very nervous, especially me. Although Liao Jianzhong repeatedly told me to act as if nothing had happened, how could I do it? I always felt like someone was staring at me, so next For several days, I remained highly nervous.
Word soon spread among the Jinyi Guards that a group of people would be promoted recently. It was said that the emperor had taken the elixir from Longhu Mountain and his health was much better. He also said that he wanted to grant amnesty to the whole world and at the same time, give officials and titles to the Ming Dynasty. As everyone whispered, the news spread faster and faster, so that everyone in Jinyiwei seemed mysterious and impetuous.
In the past few days, Ning Boyang and Hardy have been accompanying me. Hardy was afraid that I would be sad, and Ning Boyang always said that I had the best chance of rising to the top. My details were gradually made known to everyone, so many people were respectful to me. Young Master, my mind became calmer, and I thought that I should pay a visit to Eunuch Zhang since I have been in the capital for a while.
I just secretly told Ning Boyang and Hardy about my idea. They both shook their heads. Hardy said that Hua Shichun had spoken and would not allow me to leave Jinyiwei without permission, while Ning Boyang said that Eunuch Zhang and others accompany the prince every day. In the deep palace, you can't easily see it.
I think so, who am I? If I go there presumptuously, I'm afraid that no one will see me and I'll end up being a joke.
