Liu He looked around and whispered: "Don't tell lies in front of the real person. Your Excellency is here to arrest my brother. If my brother enters the Jinyi Guard, I'm afraid he will be in bad luck. If he doesn't go to the Jinyi Guard, I'm afraid he will be killed and silenced."
I said "Oh", thinking that this person is very scheming, so I couldn't help laughing and said: "It seems that you know everything! You might as well tell me." Liu He almost begged: "Sir, do you know that in my house There are already people ambushing us all around, waiting to take action. If they can kill Eunuch Zhang Yu, how can they let us go?"
"What are you talking about? Where is there someone?" I asked in confusion, and Liu He said: "Since the day my brother was dismissed, people have often been seen peeping around the palace wall. That is to say, if we are more defensive, they have not found the opportunity. Today, if If you don't come, I'm afraid we won't even dare to leave the house!"
"So you took advantage of my arrival to send someone to find Eunuch Xiao!" I was shocked. It seemed that Liu He was not a simple man. Liu He quickly saluted and said, "I have no choice but to bear with you. Sir, please take these shops." !”
"I closed your shop today, but I'm afraid someone will come and cause trouble tomorrow. Who have you offended and want your life?" I said calmly.
"Who else can it be? My brother takes orders from the father-in-law who has the internal prison, and the father-in-law who has the internal prison takes orders from the ceremonial supervisor. We are just making a living, but we don't want to die!"
I was shocked and said, "Are you lying to me? How did this matter get involved with the Supervisor of Ceremonies? Aren't your family very familiar with Eunuch Xiao?"
Liu He sighed and said, "It's hard to put it into words. I'm afraid many people think that 'it's easy to share wealth and honor, but it's easy to share hardships!'"
I heard what he said honestly, and I was sure that he would not trick me. I was surprised and happy in my heart. Gradually it became clear that the cause of Emperor Hongzhi's death was the hands and feet of the Secretary of Ceremonies. They were afraid that Emperor Hongzhi would continue to pursue people related to Li Guangli. They wanted to come to these people. All related to it.
Emperor Hongzhi passed away and Zhengde succeeded to the throne. They even wanted to wipe out all the people involved. I couldn't help but take a breath, but I couldn't figure out why Liao Jianzhong got involved. I was speechless for a moment. Then Liu He just thought I was scheming. Then he said: "As long as you are willing to help, the Liu family's stores in other places can also send it to each other. No one will know."
I calmed down and said, "How can I help?" Liu He just thought I was tempted and said, "I want my brother to fake his death!"
"You want me to prove that Liu Tai is dead, so that when you go back to report, you won't be held accountable again, right?"
"Sir, you are indeed smart. That's it. You come to the Liu Mansion to ask for someone, and I will ask my brother to pretend to be dead. You can verify his identity and help me provide a certificate. I just know that my brother committed an old habit and died of heartache. In this way, you can go back and report. We also saved our lives!”
I smiled and said, "This kind of operation is obviously to drag me into trouble. Once someone finds out, I will protect the criminal."
Liu He was not surprised and said: "My lord, there is nothing wrong with doing things impartially. It's just a matter of discussion!" I nodded and said: "I don't blame you for this. My brothers are all anxious. I am here to take your brother with me." Let’s go, as long as he tells the truth, no one may kill him!”
Liu He sighed and said, "I really can't bear it! Sir, please think again!"
While I was talking, someone came from outside to report that a flag officer had arrived from Fusi, Beizhen. I hurried out, followed by Liu He. The flag officer saw me and said: "General Zhang Qi, on the orders of Ji Qianhu, came to sue you. Liu Tai's matter needs careful consideration, so the arrest is postponed."
After announcing, he turned around and left. I was wondering, why didn't Ji Liaofan get arrested? But Liu He was not too happy, with a wry smile on his face. I knew he was worried about the safety of the whole family, but he couldn't say anything more. He ordered Hardy to gather his troops and go back to Fusi, Beizhen.
Ning Boyang had already come back, and he had indeed brought Zheng Yuan back. He thought it was a great achievement, but he was notified to let him go before the assignment was completed. When Zheng Yuan first came, he was shaking all over, stammering and frightened. His face was earth-colored, and when he let him go, he suddenly became arrogant again and said several sarcastic words.
Ning Boyang was a little aggrieved. When he saw me coming back, he hurriedly complained. I smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, we are just doing our jobs, don't worry too much."
A flag officer had already come to look for me, but it was Murong Zhao who wanted to see me, so I hurried over. This was the first time I saw Murong Zhao since he was promoted to commander and deputy commander. He was wearing a brand-new official uniform. He was sitting behind the desk, looking very energetic. Ji Liaofan sat next to him, laughing and talking with him, and in the distance was someone. It was Bao Xiaobai standing there.
"Master Murong, you are very busy with many things to do. Whenever something happens, just give your order and I will go." Ji Liaofan said with a smile on his face and a little caution.
"Being busy means being busy, but you should always come back and take a look. This is also the place where I once stayed!" Murong Zhao said lightly.
"That's, that's right, you and Mr. Liao both went out from here."
"One must not forget his roots. Remember when you went to Dongchang, I said that no matter where the Jinyiwei people are, their roots are here. Right, Zhang Ying?" Murong Zhao saw me coming in and said with a smile.
I hurriedly saluted and said, "I see you, Master Murong!" "You don't need to be more polite from now on. You are like Xiaobai, how can you be separated from me?" Murong Zhao scolded.
Bao Xiaobai and I looked at each other, and Bao Xiaobai said: "This is the rule of Jinyiwei. The subordinates dare not mess with the rules."
Murong Zhao nodded and said seriously: "I came today mainly for the sake of Liu Tai and Zheng Yuan, the former imperial doctors of the Imperial Hospital. I only found out this morning that Zhang Ying went to arrest them. The late Emperor Bintian was unable to bear the heavy burden due to physical shortage, so Abandon the subjects and drive west. Although we are sad, we still have to look far away. The late emperor has already issued an order not to pursue this matter anymore, but someone wants to interfere with it. I don’t know what the intention is? This matter was originally It's just a matter of catching wind and shadow, and if Jin Yiwei is involved, it will definitely end in disaster. Isn't it, Mr. Ji?"
Ji Liaofan looked embarrassed and said hurriedly: "Master Murong said that his subordinates also followed the arrangements of the Supervisor of Ceremonies and arranged for Zhang Ying to arrest them. Fortunately, Master came and stopped them in time. Fortunately, nothing happened. Come."
"It's too late to cause trouble, Lao Ji. You must tell us about such things in the future. If you act without authorization, sometimes we can't get rid of you."
"How dare you, how dare you, Mr. Murong, I wrote a note and had it sent to the commander's office. I'll file it in the Experience Department when I arrive. Xiaobai, can you see it?" Ji Liaofan said hurriedly.
Bao Xiaobai nodded and said: "Yesterday at Youshi, I sent it to the Experience Department, and my subordinates recorded it." Murong Zhao smiled and said: "I went on duty in the palace last night, and Mr. Liao and Nanzhen Fusi patrolled the night. Your document, we will do it today I saw it a long time ago. At least after we agree, it’s not too late for you to do it again.”
Ji Liaofan nodded and said: "This matter was directly arranged by the Chief of Ceremonies, and I dare not not do it. In the future, if something like this happens again, my subordinates must report it first and get approval before doing it."
Murong Zhao chuckled and said, "Old Ji, there's no need to be unhappy. You will have to do such things in the future. I would like to ask the commander to clear the air with the Supervisor of Ceremonies. In the future, let us know about such things first, and then Let’s handle it.”
"That's it, that's it. Either I don't respect you sirs, or the matter is too urgent. I'm afraid that people will run away, so I have to do it."
