"Do you want to be a hundred households?"
Yes, it’s just a straightforward sentence, do you want to be a hundred households?
Lin Yue looked at Lu Jianxing with a smile.
In Xiuchundao I, this guy is a fan of officials. He wants to be a member of a hundred households. Whether he wants his mother to have peace of mind or to get promoted and make a fortune, the attraction to the position of a hundred households is fatal to him.
"Father-in-law, what do you want to do next?"
Lu Jianxing's face looked a little ugly. In fact, when Lin Yue asked him to wait at the door just now, he had an ominous premonition.
Lin Yue and Lu Wenzhao were talking in the room just now. They didn't lower their voices deliberately. He knew exactly what they said. Although I had just returned to the capital not long ago, I had no idea about Guo Zhen, Shen Lian, and Beizhai, but I had a vague feeling that things were not simple.
Did this father-in-law from Dongchang deliberately involve him? After talking to Lu Wenzhao, I asked him to see him off. After that, he asked him directly, "Do you want to be a hundred households?"
Sure enough, he was tricked.
However, Lu Jianxing knows very well that if a person like him with no background and no financial resources wants to climb up in an institution like Jinyiwei, where officials and disciples gather together, the only thing they can rely on is opportunities. Only by seizing the opportunity when it comes, can you make achievements. .
Lin Yue said: "Be optimistic about Lu Wenzhao. If there is any trouble, report it to Dongchang immediately."
"..."
Lu Jianxing was hesitant. Lu Wenzhao was from Qianhu. Although he was not his direct leader, he was still a middle- and high-level manager in the Jinyiwei system, and this Eunuch Lin belonged to the Dongchang Yamen.
"Lu doesn't understand."
"What don't you understand?"
"Since Eunuch Lin is not at ease with Lu Qianhu, why do you still say those words?"
Lin Yue said with a smile: "There is a word called to scare the grass and scare the snake."
It took Lu Jianxing a while to realize that he was afraid that Shen Baihu was a bait, and the father-in-law in front of him was rushing to Lu Qianhu.
If Lu Wenzhao handed Shen Lian over to Dongchang, he might get bitten back. After all, if he could get the position of Qianhu in Jinyiwei, his butt would definitely be dirty. If Lu Wenzhao didn't hand Shen Lian over to Dongchang, Eunuch Lin would have even more excuses to cause trouble.
After this guy disappeared, he spent all his energy on conspiracy and conspiracy, right? Can't afford to offend, really can't afford to offend.
"Don't worry, father-in-law, Lu knows what to do."
Lu Jianxing answered with clasped hands, looking very sensible.
…
Without waiting until the next day, something happened at night.
When Lin Yue and Pei Lun arrived at Shen Lian's house, the Jinyi Guards had already surrounded the yard.
There are three corpses under the south wall. They are the flag officers of Jinyiwei and two Tiqi. They are all people from Lu Wenzhao's office.
According to the direct report of Baihu, Lu Qianhu asked him to send people to monitor Shen Lian's family and report immediately if there was any movement. As a result, the desired report turned out to be news of death.
"The little flag officer at the door had his sternum smashed to pieces with a heavy weapon, and the two Tiqi over there were killed with one blow." Pei Lun checked the wounds of the corpses and informed Lin Yue of the situation.
"What did you say to Shen Lian this afternoon?"
"Oh, I just used Monk Jinghai to test his true identity. Who would have thought that this guy is very tight-lipped and his answers are flawless."
"That's it, nothing else?"
Pei Lun shook his head: "No more."
Lin Yue said: "It seems that this guy is really connected with the Donglin rebel party."
This Pei Lun has always been honest before, but since he learned that Dongchang was going to handle a big case, he started to make small plans, such as revealing the news to Shen Lian that Dongchang was going to handle a big case.
It makes sense if you think about it carefully.
People like Pei Lun want to be content with the status quo, not clinging to anyone, not fawning over anyone, and living their small lives in peace. However, as the case gets deeper and deeper, the involvement becomes bigger and bigger. I thought he was just a royal guard. The Qiu Shang case where Qi was murdered turned out to be the case of Guo Zhen, the eunuch in charge of the internal affairs office. Then Dongchang intervened, and then the Donglin rebel party with Hokusai as the core appeared. Now even the Jinyiwei case documents have been given to the treasury. It seemed that someone didn't want Dongchang to investigate the treasure ship case. When they met in the morning, they learned that Guo Zhen and Shen Lian were former colleagues in the West Route Army.
Today, the scale of the case and the people involved have exceeded his expectations. If it continues to develop, God knows how many heads will fall. As the person who knows the case best, he may be able to keep his position if he chooses the right position. If you take a wrong stand, you may be dismissed from office, or beheaded at worst.
Therefore, as long as Shen Lian is forced to leave, it is best to escape from Shuntian Mansion, and a very crucial link can be taken away. It will not be easy to continue to expand the scale of the case. The longer it is delayed, the more likely it will be unresolved. The greater the sex, the further away from the truth, the safer he is.
The struggles of little people in a big era...
Lin Yue shook his head. How would Pei Lun feel if he knew that it was not Dongchang who wanted to handle a big case, but him? Naturally, Wei Zhongxian didn't know that everything was a follow-up development of the treasure ship case. The investigation of the emperor's drowning was left to Zhao Jingzhong, and the boss of Zheng was Zhao Jingzhong. As for himself...because of his shallow qualifications, he was only responsible for investigating the murder of Ling Yunkai. .
Xizong's days are running out. If he wants to get close to the core of power and complete the main task, all he can do is start from the murder case of Ling Yunkai and make the snowball get bigger and bigger until it pins Zhao Jingzhong underneath. Wei Zhongxian will naturally give it to him. He trusts and empowers more.
"Master Lin, Master Lin..."
A voice attracted his and Pei Lun's attention.
"Lu Qianhu is here?"
"Ah, here we come." Lu Wenzhao nodded to Pei Lun: "I'm passive now! I didn't expect that this Shen Lian is really a traitor to Donglin. If I had known that he was so capable, I should have sent more people here."
Lin Yuexin said that if you continue to act, do you think I don't know that this is a scene that you directed and acted in? The injuries on the little flag official were clearly caused by Ding Tai's mace, and the other two people were killed by Ding Chong. Others may not know the relationship between Lu Wenzhao, Ding Baiying and others, but he knew it very well.
He asked Lu Wenzhao to pick up people at Shen Lian's Dianmao tomorrow. He sent people to follow him tonight. He seemed to be very attentive to the instructions of Mr. Dongchang, but what was the result? Shen Lian had helpers and killed the Jin Yiwei who came to perform surveillance missions.
This was not Lu Wenzhao's fault, it was his opponent who was too cunning.
He is indeed scheming and ruthless.
"Shen Lian really let Beizhai go." Pei Lun said: "So it seems that the knife he received on the shoulder was also inflicted by himself?"
Lu Wenzhao said: "This Shen Lian is well hidden. But don't worry, Commander Lin. I will have someone put up a portrait tomorrow to arrest Shen Lian."
Lin Yue cooperated: "Thank you Lu Qianhu."
Lu Wenzhao chuckled and said: "No hard work, no hard work, Boss Lin, don't worry, I will inform Dongchang immediately as soon as there is news."
Afterwards, Lin Yue walked around in Shen Lian's yard for a while and then went home.
After getting up the next day, I walked around Xizhimen and saw two portraits hanging in a conspicuous place at the door, one by Shen Lian and one by Hokusai.
Hokusai's portrait was posted two days ago. The image comes from Shen Lian's description, so it is naturally countless. However, Shen Lian's portrait is much more realistic. As long as he appears nearby, he will be caught.
It seems that there have been major changes in the plot. Shen Lian should have reached a certain degree of cooperation with Ding Baiying and others.
Shen Lian likes Beizhai's paintings - lets Beizhai go - is forced by Ding Baiying to burn the Jinyiwei case library - discovers that Guo Zhen is the eunuch in charge of the imperial eunuch and is related to the case of the emperor falling into the water - Pei Lun reveals that Wei Jun of the East Factory is going to hold a big scandal News of the case - Lu Wenzhao was discovered to have sent people to monitor him.
Putting these things together, no matter how stupid a person is, he may know that he is involved in a shocking conspiracy. On the one hand, Ding Baiying didn't want him to be taken away by the Dongchang people, and on the other hand, she wanted to kill him and silence him. However, she was also afraid that after his death, the treasure ship construction supervision records would fall into the hands of Wei Gong, so the best option for the two was to form a temporary relationship. alliance to deal with the pursuit of Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
It's a pity that Lu Wenzhao and his gang didn't know that Lin Yue deliberately forced them into this delicate situation.
Well, it's time for a bitter ruse.
Just then, a big yellow dog was sniffing all the way and came out of the alley diagonally opposite. I saw him standing in the crowd with his hands behind his back, kicking on all fours, and ran nearby and barked.
Lin Yue lowered his head and looked at the big yellow dog, his expression changed slightly, he did not go to the Yamen anymore, turned around and walked quickly along the way he came.
It took less than a stick of incense to return home to Dongcheng.
The courtyard door was open, and a calico cat lay on the apricot tree near the west wall, looking warily at the main house to the north.
Lin Yue took out the pair of Ziwu Yuanyang Yue, a pair of Qimen weapons that were just completed yesterday. This weapon appeared in the Qing Dynasty and is a unique weapon of the Bagua sect. In the world of "Ip Man", his wife Gong Er is the successor of Bagua Zhang. He will use Ziwu Yuanyang Yue is naturally a normal thing, but it is a pity that the blacksmith of this dynasty has never seen this kind of weapon, and it took a lot of effort to meet his requirements.
He walked to the front of the north room and pushed it gently. The door opened with a bang. When he saw the scene in front of him, Lin Yue narrowed his eyes.
