Chapter 33: Please fall into the trap (4)
A document sealed with a red signature was passed to the depths of the Great Inner through numerous guards. Huang Zicheng, who was helping the emperor to refer to the memorial, threw down the mountain's official documents and only held the document in his hand.
Zhu Yunwen looked at the expression on his face and threw down the thing in his hand and said, "What makes my dear so focused?"
Huang Zicheng said: "The report of the Jinyiwei on the King of Liao."
"Oh?" Zhu Yunwen took the document, tore the red seal open, and carefully watched the monthly report on the Liao King. After a while, Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "Haha, the emperor's uncle did not stay in the mansion honestly, but also played around.
As my beloved said, the emperor's uncle was indeed not scheming. I can feel at ease to let him go back." As he said that, he handed the document to Huang Zicheng.
Huang Zicheng looked at it, his expression was slower, and he said, "Since that's the case, let's do it according to the previous agreement. This time, the King of Liao went to Jingzhou to handle the work, let's see how he handles it."
Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "Your dear, not every vassal king has the intention of being unjust. Uncle Fifteen seems to be trusting."
...
Along the way, Zhu Zhi and Xie Jin chatted with each other every day. Xie Jin was very interested in the military and horse affairs in Liaodong, and Zhu Zhi also answered them one by one.
When Xie Jin heard it deep, he felt that many things were not something he could understand, but based on the experience in Liaodong over the past few years, he felt that many things were done reasonably.
But what is in line with is definitely not Confucius's reason. Xie Jin couldn't figure out what this reason was. Zhu Zhi only told him one sentence: "I hope fairness is like a big water rolling, and justice is like a river surging." The seventeen words made Xie Jin unable to understand it.
After twenty days of traveling, the fleet finally arrived at the water surface of Jingzhou. The Clippers had already reported the news that the Huguang Administration Commission had already received a ship. The "Dynasty" class warship was too big to reach the dock, so Zhu Zhi and Xie Jin had to transfer to the boat to go ashore.
Zhu Zhi came to the shore and saw two officials, one civil and one military officers, who were wearing court uniforms, waiting at the dock for a long time. One was not tall.
The civil servant, who was black and thin, had three beards on his face, walked up in two steps and knelt down and bowed: "Lin Zheng, the governor of Huguang, met with the imperial envoy, the deputy envoy."
The stout man in the military uniform behind him also knelt down behind him: "Ma Sheng, the commander of Huguang, met with the imperial envoy, the chief envoy."
Zhu Zhi pretended to be enthusiastic and quickly helped the two of them up: "I'm sorry, please welcome them." As he spoke, the two officials followed on the left, and Xie Jin followed the car on the right.
All the officials arranged on both sides knelt down to greet him: "Welcome to the Chief and Deputy Envoys of the Imperial Envoy."
As he was about to arrive next to the car, Xie Jin searched for his eyes, his face changed color, and he cleared his throat and said, "Why didn't Your Highness Xiang King come?" King Zhu Bai of Xiang King was a vassal king in Jingzhou.
He was the nominal leader of the land, and the imperial envoy came far away, representing the emperor. If he did not come to greet him, it was obviously a serious violation of etiquette.
Lin Zheng replied respectfully: "When I returned to the imperial envoy, as soon as I arrived at the mansion the day before yesterday, I discussed with Lord Ma and decided to send troops to surround the Xiang Prince's Mansion. Of course, King Xiang could not come to greet him."
Xie Jin's face was cold to freezing point. He spit out two words: "Nonsense!" As he said that, he brushed his sleeves and walked towards the car behind him. The two of Wen and Wu were stunned by the act of being sent to the police and were at a loss, looking at Zhu Zhi for explanation.
Zhu Zhi waved his hand and smiled slightly, "Let's go back and talk about it." He already understood what was going on in his heart, so he turned around and got on his own carriage. Zhu Zhi found that all the landlords of the Huguang Administration and Administration Department were replaced with four-wheeled carriages.
You don’t need to look at it and you will know it is a product from Liaodong. When did Liaodong Lianhao make the transaction here?
The imperial envoy and his party came to the Huguang Administration. Zhu Zhi got off the car and saw Xie Jin lifting the curtain there, his expression still cold. He came to the hall.
Someone had already set up an incense table, and Lin Zheng and Ma Sheng knelt down again. This time Xie Jin took out a volume of imperial edicts and read them. The general meaning was that King Liao and Xie Jin were imperial envoys, and they summoned King Xiang to question him on behalf of Tianzhang to clarify the complaints of his rebellion.
After reading the imperial edict, the imperial envoy was verified and the guardian was placed in different places.
Xie Jin said: "My two lords. The emperor's imperial edict is clearly stated. Before convicting the crime without conclusive evidence, King Xiang or King Xiang is still your boss. How could there be such a reason to besiege the vassal kings so rashly?
The two are too brave.
Lin Zheng and Ma Sheng looked at each other. They heard that the imperial envoy came to ask about the crime of Xiang King, but they were afraid that Xiang King would change when they heard the news, so they hurriedly arranged to transfer a guard to siege the Xiang King's Mansion. Who knew that this arrangement was scolded so much that it was so scolded.
Lin Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "The lower official is afraid that the Xiang King will come here. Things will change urgently. So..."
Zhu Zhi came out to smooth things over: "Okay, okay."
You two are you not going to withdraw the besieged soldiers?" As soon as he said that, Zhu Zhi couldn't help but scold himself, "Isn't Yang Rong just talking nonsense?" Thinking of this, Zhu Zhi took the tea bowl and took a sip, and stopped talking.
Lin Zheng quickly winked at Ma Sheng, and Ma Sheng quickly bowed his hand and promised: "Sir, please obey the order." He ran out and went out to pass the death.
Looking at Ma Sheng's back, Xie Jin said with a slight look: "When it comes, the emperor summoned me and asked me in person... The uncle of King Xiang, my brothers and sisters, asked me on my behalf, and I would be sympathetic to you. I cannot be arrested without any evidence.
"When Xie Jin mentioned Jianwen, Lin Zheng quickly got up and knelt down to answer, "You must understand the holy intention. The emperor is still merciful to the King of Hunan. We will be ordered to ask tomorrow, Lord Lin will prepare first."
After hearing what Xie Jin said, Lin Zheng felt relieved and quickly saluted the two of them and ran out. After a while, Ma Sheng returned all the soldiers besieged the royal palace to retreat.
Zhu Zhi said to Xie Jin happily: "Mr. Xie, what a powerful official position."
Xie Jin quickly stood up and bowed, "Your Highness, please forgive me for being accused of Meng Lang. His Highness Xiang was not guilty. If he rashly sent troops to surround him and forced him to rebel, this would be a huge sin. So he dare not neglect his position, so he urged them to correct his mistakes.
”
Zhu Zhi waved his hand and said, "Why do you need to explain by Lord Xie? I will naturally be able to save you..." As he was speaking, a guard came to report to King Zhu Bo of Xiang to ask for a meeting.
Zhu Zhi's heart skipped a beat. It was coming so fast. He had already arrived here.
Xie Jin looked at Zhu Zhi with inquiring eyes. Zhu Zhi thought, "Since that's the case, please let me see you. As for me, I will say that I have been exhausted and have already gone in to rest.
"Hehe, you, Lord Xie, you, will give up to Xie Jin. No matter what Xie Jin wants to say, he has already fled in panic.
Xie Jin looked at Zhu Zhi's back, shook his head helplessly, and told the door to invite King Xiang in. After a while, a tall and fair-looking handsome guy walked into the door, with a pretty beard left on his lips.
Xie Jin had also met King Xiang at the prince's funeral before, and could still be recognized. King Xiang was a famous talented person, and he was well-known in literature and martial arts. Now he saw that he was indeed well-known.
Zhu Bai knew that the person in front of him was Xie Jin, so he knelt down on the ground: "My teacher Zhu Bai, kowtow to the imperial envoy." Xie Jin quickly helped Zhu Bai up and knelt down again: "My teacher Xie Jin, kowtow to His Highness Xiang King.
"The two knelt down and bowed, each with their own courtesy. Zhu Bai knelt down and bowed to the ground as an imperial envoy with the emperor's order. Xie Jin represented the emperor; Xie Jin knelt down as his original minister.
After seeing Xu Li, Zhu Bai said, "The imperial envoy arrived. I cannot welcome you for some special reasons. Please forgive me for your sins." His tone was full of displeasure.
Xie Jin reached out to ask Zhu Bai to sit down, and then said, "Your Highness is a little restless. We have just arrived. I have just learned a little about the specific situation. It is really Lin and Ma's idea."
Zhu Bai said disdainfully: "Since the imperial envoy has come, why bother Xiao Xiao to take action? Why not take me down and take me to the capital now, so as not to worry about me running away!"
Xie Jin was not a particularly fond person. Seeing that Zhu Bo was still aggressive when he explained that he was still aggressive, he asked, "Your Highness knows best whether he is guilty. He will not ignore the evidence and arrest people without authorization; but if the evidence is found, don't blame me for being polite.
”
"You..." These two soft and hard words made Zhu Bai unable to take it.
Seeing his white face turned red and green, Xie Jin felt a little relieved and said, "Actually, the emperor still remembers family affection for His Highness. Don't you see the King of Zhou? This time, the emperor specially sent the King of Liao and came to Jingzhou to clarify the whole story of the matter. The misunderstanding was eliminated and his Highness was naturally cleared.
”
Zhu Bai, who was defeated, was obviously no longer arrogant and said, "Then I hope the candidate will investigate carefully so that I can restore my innocence. Oh, by the way, where is the fifteenth brother?"
Xie Jin said: "Your Highness has been exhausted all the way and has already entered the back hall to rest. Your Highness, please come back. The King of Liao will have a question about the mansion tomorrow.
"Zhu Bo, who originally wanted to give the imperial envoy a warning, saw that he issued an order to expel the guest, had to bid farewell in shame.
Zhu Zhi did not really run to the back to sleep, and kept eavesdropping behind the screen. It was not until Zhu Bai left that he pinched his hands and feet and wanted to enter the back hall. Xie Jin in front said, "Your Highness, have you rested?"
When Zhu Zhi saw that his behavior was exposed, he felt embarrassed to turn it out. He sneered and said, "Brother Twelve is not small, hehe. Is this scheming person? Does Master Jie look like the secret memorial saying? "
"This?" After Zhu Zhi said this, Xie Jin seemed to suddenly think of something and looked at Zhu Zhi in surprise.
