Kunning Palace.

Ma Enhui looked at Zhu Yunwen with some worry and said, "I heard that a woman was assassinated. The emperor must not be so reckless in the future."

Zhu Yunwen glared at the talkative Shuangxi. Shuangxi quickly shook his head, indicating that he did not say this.

Needless to say, it must be the talkative Cong Pei'er.

In order to ensure Zhu Yunwen's safety, the Security Bureau mixed Cong Pei'er among the women. The situation at that time was not dangerous enough for her to take action, not to mention that she was escorted by Gu Sanshen and Tang Buhe.

"I understand."

Zhu Yunwen didn't pay attention, looking at the roster, the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

Ma Enhui knew that she couldn't persuade Zhu Yunzhen, so she had to bring over the prepared soup, put it on the table, and said: "Let's drink some to calm down the shock. Are these names on the list all abducted children? It's so thick, it's not like there are only More than three hundred people.”

Zhu Yunwen's eyes were full of worry and he said: "Look at the records here. This secret power can be traced back to the 23rd year of Hongwu."

Ma Enhui was startled and said: "The 23rd year of Hongwu?"

Zhu Yunwen nodded solemnly.

There were a lot of things in Hongwu's twenty-third year, but there was only one thing that attracted the most attention, and that was the murder of Li Shanchang's family, which brought an end to the ten-year Hu Weiyong case.

Li Shanchang died. Before him, more than 30,000 people had been killed implicated in the Hu Weiyong case.

"This incident is definitely not a coincidence. The account books of Cuijiang Tower in Hangzhou started in the 24th year of Hongwu. The account books here are one year earlier, or in other words, several months earlier."

Zhu Yunwen can imagine that under Zhu Yuanzhang's butcher's knife, some people must be extremely afraid and hate Zhu Yuanzhang. However, they have no right and power to fight against Zhu Yuanzhang, so they can only choose to go underground to accumulate strength.

When they saw the power of the White Lotus Sect, they turned to conspire with it, working together and taking advantage of each other. On the one hand, what they want is political revenge and the destruction of the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. On the other hand, what they want is for Maitreya to come to the world and have countless believers.

Zhu Yunwen scratched his head a little. He had never seen these people making trouble in history. Why did they show up one by one when they arrived at his place?

After all, it was a coincidence.

Coincidentally, the historical Jingnan War lasted for more than three years. The main battlefields happened to be Beizhili, Shandong and Henan. Zhu Yunwen needed strong men, and Zhu Di also needed strong men, although it is not said how much combat power these people had. , but after all, we need someone to transport grain, build cities, and farm fields...

But in those days of war, these people were not safe, and they were killed from time to time. After several years of back and forth, the White Lotus cultists had nowhere to hide even if they wanted to, and were forced to be involved in the Jingnan War.

Whether it was Zhu Di's Northern Army or Zhu Yunwen's Southern Army, they both left countless corpses in Shandong and other places, with losses of tens of thousands, not just for pure soldiers, but also for cooks and logistics.

The White Lotus Sect is also a human being, and they cannot survive even if they die. They come and go without much movement.

Without the support of the White Lotus Sect, the descendants or close relatives of Hongwu's surviving ministers had no choice but to work alone, and spent all their efforts to arrange people to enter the palace. Before they had the opportunity to get close to Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Di came to Nanjing and wiped them out.

Alas, all previous efforts have been wasted...

In addition, Zhu Di restarted Jinyiwei, and his methods were cruel and pervasive. Let alone the Hongwu orphan who wanted to make a fuss, even with the Jianwen orphan, he couldn't make a fuss.

This has led to the fact that there is almost no record of this period of history in history.

However, Zhu Yunwen did not fight the Jingnan War with Zhu Di in the past two years, which caused the White Lotus Sect in Shandong, Henan and other places to be extremely active, which eventually triggered the Qingzhou Rebellion. And Hongwu's orphan has not been idle these years, building dikes, instigating a feudal prince to rebel, doing some human trafficking, and using the White Lotus Sect to start a rebellion...

In times of war, there is helplessness in times of war, and in times of peace, there is also sadness in times of peace.

Pass

After passing through a population account book, a capital account book, and a military equipment account book, Zhu Yunwen finally saw clearly that this was not a person who was against him, but an enemy of Hongwu!

"It's Lao Zhu's fault. You go down to find Lao Zhu. Did you find the wrong person when you came to me?"

Zhu Yunwen muttered.

After Ma Enhui heard this, she quickly told the maid to stay away. Such words could not fall into other people's ears.

"You should be able to find clues from here, right?"

It can be said that Ma Enhui controls the accounts of the harem and knows the value of the ledgers. Some data may seem ordinary, but they can dig out a lot of information.

Zhu Yunwen nodded and said seriously: "There are some guards commanders and thousands of households involved. Although the details of the guards are not recorded in the account books, the number of weapons provided by the guards, the interval, and the missing reports received from the governor's mansion The document is definitely in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, most likely at the Coastal Guard Station, and someone used the name of Japanese pirates to cover up the fact that the ordnance was lost."

Ma Enhui's eyebrows were a little melancholy.

Zhu Yunwen pointed to the account book again and said: "These people are hiding underground, and their food and drink needs to be transported from outside. They can't alert too many people, so they can only transport in small quantities and in batches. Although there are many such people on the Qinhuai River , but there must not be many boatmen who mainly focus on food, I think the security bureau is already arresting people."

Ma Enhui also knew that the problem of feeding hundreds of people was not so easy to solve. Besides, these women also had to practice swordsmanship. They would not have the energy to practice martial arts just eating rice. They also had to have vegetables and occasionally meat. These were all clue.

"Leave these matters to the Security Bureau. They will definitely not disappoint the Emperor."

Ma Enhui closed the account book.

Zhu Yunwen yawned and said, "What I'm worried about now is that these children will be like Mo'er. Their parents and close relatives have already..."

Ma Enhui sighed softly and said: "This Mo'er is also a pitiful person. Speaking of this matter, I still need to report something."

"There's no need to talk about Zhu Youxuan."

Zhu Yunwen blocked it first.

Ma Enhui shook her head and said: "It's the Feng family. They came to the palace today to ask for an audience. They said that Zhu Youhui's past should implicate everyone in the Zhou Dynasty. They are willing to return to the clan's mansion and wait for the court to deal with it."

Zhu Yunwen was a little suspicious and said: "Zhu Youyi has reached this point, Feng is still willing to take responsibility for him?"

There was some admiration in Ma Enhui's eyes, and she lightly opened her red lips: "Feng is worthy of being the daughter of the Duke of Song Dynasty. She is upright and upright."

Zhu Yunwen stretched out his hand, patted Ma Enhui's arm, and said, "You were persuaded by Feng, and you lobbied here to let Zhu Youxuan go, right?"

Ma Enhui refused: "I didn't say that."

Zhu Yunwen took off his coat, sat on the bed, glanced at Shuangxi, and said: "Go to the security bureau on my behalf and tell Moer about the death of the house today. Let her think about where the mysterious young master is most likely to live. place."

After Shuangxi agreed, he took the people away.

Ma Enhui's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she asked softly: "How do I feel, my concubine, that the emperor is comforting the white lotus witch?"

Zhu Yunwen didn't say anything, but pulled Ma Enhui and lay down.

The next day.

At dawn, Zhu Yunwen had already summoned Gu Sanshen, Xue Xia and Tang Buhe from the Security Bureau in Wuying Hall.

Tang Buping reported: "According to the account books, the Security Bureau dispatched last night and arrested 26 people. All of them are now detained in the Security Bureau. After interrogation, they were all involved in the four major Hongwu cases."

Zhu Yunwen asked: "Do you know the whereabouts of Li Qi?"

Tang Buping said: "It hasn't been discovered yet."

Zhu Yunwen did not ask any more questions, but looked at Gu Sanshen and said, "How are these people arranged?"

Gu Sanshen took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, we have investigated your identity and recorded your hometown.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

There were 219 people who were willing to return to their hometown, and the remaining 100 people claimed that their parents had died and were homeless. "

Zhu Yunwen's heart tightened, he didn't expect there to be so many.

Behind these one hundred people are one hundred families that have completely disappeared!

"Then arrange for them to enter the workshop. Wool weaving and medical gauze weaving always require manpower."

Zhu Yunwen sighed.

Gu Sanshen hesitated for a moment, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have an unkind request."

"speak."

Zhu Yunwen was a little surprised. Gu Sanshen had never been like this in the past.

Gu Sanshen raised his head and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I know that these women have suffered a lot and should live a normal life. But some of them already have good martial arts skills. If they are left alone, It’s such a pity. I would like to ask for permission to incorporate him into the Security Bureau to spy on intelligence for the Security Bureau!”

Zhu Yunwen looked at Gu Sanshen with some surprise. This proposal was quite bold.

Although they are only women, they have been brainwashed after all. Not to mention the ancient and modern spirituality and Maitreya belief in them, but if someone has malicious intentions, will the security bureau be safe?

On the other hand, these people took root in the Security Bureau and became the power of Hongwu's orphans. In turn, they infiltrated the Security Bureau and leaked intelligence. Then who will ensure the safety of the palace?

"You can't control these people."

Zhu Yunwen looked deeply at Gu Sanshen.

Gu Sanshen knew the meaning of this sentence, which was rejection.

"Your Majesty, they also want revenge, and I want to give them a chance!"

Gu Sanchen requested again.

Zhu Yunwen frowned slightly and said, "Gu Sanshen, do you plan to change the security bureau to a non-security bureau?"

Gu Sanshen knelt on the ground, speechless.

When Xue Xia and Tang Buping saw this, they quickly interceded for Gu Sanshen. In front of them, they kill the people closest to them, some are even their biological sisters, just to make them obey orders."

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, he rubbed his brows and said to Gu Sanshen: "I know that you value love and justice, but it is absolutely impossible to include these people in the security bureau."

Gu Sanshen's face looked a little gloomy.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Tang Buping and said, "Cong Pei'er has been bored in the palace recently. Let her take care of these people. If the Security Bureau has any news or actions, they can take action first. As for whether they can take revenge, it's up to them. But I have to tell them that Li Qi must live."

Gu Sanshen raised his head in surprise and thanked him repeatedly.

Zhu Yunwen sighed. These old men were obviously hard-hearted, but they still had some conscience.

"Order the local security bureaus to contact all prefectures and counties to investigate all cases of missing persons from the 23rd year of Hongwu to the present. If there are any missing persons in the future, they will be reported to the security bureaus and summarized in the capital as first-class information."

Zhu Yunwen ordered.

"According to the order."

Gu Sanshen and others agreed.

Zhu Yunwen picked up a document and said: "Check the ordnance of various garrison posts. If there is any discrepancy, we will investigate it thoroughly, especially the coastal garrison posts in South Zhili, Shandong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Also, the information provided by Bai Lianmo'er Since it is credible, then follow the map and send it to various places to track down the leader and senior officials of the Bailian bandits, especially in the countryside."

Gu Sanshen and others nodded repeatedly.

Zhu Yunwen made up his mind to completely pull out the core power of the White Lotus Sect this time so that it could no longer make waves. As for Buddha Mother and Tang Sai'er, they must be in Shandong, and we have to dig three feet into the ground to find them.

While the security bureau was operating, Arutai, Yesuntai and others from Chouba Mountain finally waited for the opportunity and began to draw their sharp sabers...
