Chapter 183 Something big happened!

Although he didn’t know what the British public urgent letter was about, he had been exchanging letters with Beijing in the past few months. At least the messenger never said a word of urgency. Therefore, Zhang Yue did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly got on his horse and rushed to the county government. Waiting.

Arriving at the end of the field at a lightning speed, he casually threw the reins to a door that was coming out, walked around the screen wall in three steps and entered the door in two steps.

When he passed through the third hall and arrived at the back office, he saw Lian Sheng standing eagerly at the door of the study. Before he could speak, the clever boy rushed over like a gust of wind. He didn't even bother to salute and just put his hand in his hand.

letter

He handed it over and then explained: "Master, the messenger was in a hurry on the road. It only took him a day and a night to arrive. He has passed out now. The young man asked someone to help him down to rest, and he had already gone to invite him.

Doctor..."

Zhang Yue was looking at the seal on the seal of the envelope at this time, and it was confirmed that it was indeed the intact British public and private seal. He just started to open it. Hearing Liansheng mention that the messenger only spent a day and a night, and now he was exhausted. He

He was immediately shocked, knowing that this must be a big deal. He opened the letter and glanced at it, almost thinking that there was something wrong with his eyes.

King Zhu Gaoxu of Han was assassinated!

After being stunned for a moment, he quickly looked down. It turned out that Zhang Fu wrote in the letter that three days ago, King Zhu Gaoxu of Han Dynasty was assassinated in the palace, and the assailant was killed on the spot. The prince of Han Dynasty, Zhu Zhantan, hurriedly reported to the court, saying:

In broad daylight, someone assassinated the imperial vassal

Wang, according to the inspection department, it is difficult to escape the blame and should be held accountable. He strongly pointed out that Shandong's left and right governors, Qingzhou prefecture and other officials below should also be held accountable, and asked to increase the number of guards from the Han Dynasty palace. Not many people know about this matter now, but this is a big official in Shandong.

Earthquakes are probably unavoidable.

At this time, Peng Shisan had already arranged the horses and hurried over. Seeing Zhang Yue's face full of coldness and solemnity, he couldn't help but feel strange, so he stepped forward and asked: "What on earth can be called an urgent message? Is it from Beijing?"

Something happened?"

"What happened is not Beijing. It's Shandong. We are in Shandong. For such a big thing, if the lobby uncle hadn't been the first to know and sent a letter, we don't know when we would have received the letter." Zhang Yue casually held his hand.

The letter was handed over

, this is an old rule. Although Peng Shisan is not a thoughtful person, he is more experienced than before. Since this is a letter from the British Duke Zhang Fu, it is even more natural to give it to him. "Look, read it."

Then you’ll know what happened.”

"What can happen to Shandong? Even if it's Bai... then we can't make trouble for the time being... Isn't this a joke?"

Peng Shisan took the letter and read it doubtfully. When he saw the middle sentences, his eyes widened. He raised his head and glanced at Zhang Yue, saw him sneer and nodded, and recognized that it was indeed the British Duke.

Zhang Fu wrote it himself. He was just sure that this was not a joke. Even so, he still felt that it was indescribably ridiculous.

The King of Han Zhu Gaoxu was assassinated? Not to mention that the master was ambitious and coveted the throne, but just his brute strength and martial arts, no one in the army could not help but admit that he could defeat a small number of people. Peng Shisan thought of following Zhang Fu when he was young.

Go to see Zhu Gaoxu and see with your own eyes that the other party will

Two hundred kilograms of iron locks are played in the palm of his hand, and he can shoot a three-stone strong bow. He can easily win a game with twenty strongmen, even he is ashamed of himself. Even if he is too pampered and dull now, the guards of the Han Palace are so strict, why

Would you let the assassin in easily?

Zhang Yue did not believe that Han King Zhu Gaoxu would be assassinated in the heavily guarded palace. Yongle Emperor Zhu Di also did not believe it.

Although it has snowed several times in Beijing, it was as warm as spring in the West Palace Warm Hall. Even so, Zhu Di was in an extremely bad mood. He reluctantly approved a few memorials sent by the cabinet, and finally stood up irritably. Come and send someone to summon Zhang Fu. However, as soon as the young eunuch left, he felt something was wrong, so he immediately ordered someone to summon Yang Rong.

Even during the day, there are still countless honey candles burning in the Nuan Palace, and the air is filled with the fragrance of ambergris. The water-polished gold bricks on the ground were polished by countless young eunuchs early in the morning, and they stepped on them firmly. The palace and eunuchs standing around did not dare to make a sound. The only sound in the entire hall was Zhu Di's heavy breathing, and the atmosphere was extremely miserable.

"This traitor thinks he is smart!"

While Zhang Fu was waiting at the bottom of the steps, he heard a roar inside and couldn't help but take a deep breath. During the Battle of Jingnan, he fought side by side with Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu many times. This friendship has always been engraved in his heart. When he was young, At that time, I even felt that the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu was more suitable for the supreme position than the frail and sickly prince. But now that he is older, things that were not clear at the time can now be seen clearly. Therefore, he no longer has a certain An idea.

The East Palace reserve position seems to be in danger, but in fact it is as stable as a mountain. If Zhu Gaoxu thinks that the current emperor also started as a vassal king and he can follow the old path, he is wrong.

Zhang Qian, the imperial eunuch, came out of the palace, bowed to Zhang Fu, and then whispered in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince of Han Dynasty in Le'an Prefecture sent another blood-stained coat today. The Emperor is in a very bad temper right now. , please give me more advice. The Emperor has just summoned Bachelor Xiao Yang, who is probably only one or two steps behind you."

Zhang Fu nodded, and then said: "If you have time, come and sit with me. I just got some top-quality dragon robes a few days ago, but without your superb tea skills, I can't make good tea."

The two people with the same surname but completely different identities looked at each other and nodded slightly. Zhang Fu entered the hall, while Zhang Qian waited at the foot of the steps. When Yang Rong arrived, he raised his hand to lead him in with a smile. But he didn't say much.

Zhang Qian could have gone into the palace to serve and not have to endure the howling cold wind outside, but he would rather wait outside.

In just these three days, at least a dozen eunuchs from the underground palace were killed with sticks. Although he did not make a mistake and fell to that point, there was no need to get into trouble. What's more, the civil and military personnel inside were considered worthy. He is the emperor's most trusted minister, so it would be better for him not to listen to some words. As long as he doesn't go in, if he gets angry later, it won't be his turn.

Although Yang Rong appeared impartial, he was a princeling in his heart; Zhang Fu had always been cautious and would not say anything unnecessary, so now he had to carefully consider his words. Therefore, when the emperor in the palace asked, the two of them immediately started talking. Although no one believed that the King of Han was assassinated, they could only keep this in mind. Mingli had to find out the culprit. Naturally, the unlucky Shandong Anchasi became the scapegoat, and he was detained for a while. A big hat as a robber.

"As for the King of Han's request for additional guards..."

Zhang Fu glanced at Yang Rong and saw that the other party looked like he was deep in thought. He could only grit his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, the King of Han has always been extraordinary in martial arts. This assassination was probably caused by carelessness. Although the Prince of Han impeached the prosecutor in the memorial,

The Chief Secretary and the officials of the Qingzhou Prefecture, but in my opinion, punishing them is the second priority, and the guard commander in Tiance should be punished first!"

Yang Rong never thought that Zhang Fu would be so decisive this time, so he couldn't continue to watch. However, as a nobleman, Zhang Fu could say some things, but he couldn't be so straightforward, so he said: "Your Majesty, please increase the bodyguard after the King of Han is assassinated.

There is nothing wrong with this. However, it was a sacred intention to cut two guards before, but it is also inappropriate to suddenly increase the number. Since the guards in Tiance have neglected their duties, why not choose guards from the capital guards to replace the guards in Tiance, and slightly increase the number of them?

, then we will not lose the benevolence of the Emperor, the King of Han, and his son."

Because he was not in court, Zhu Di was only wearing a yellow robe with a coiled collar and narrow sleeves, and a jade belt around his waist. He wore black leather boots, and his face was terrifyingly gloomy. Although he was calling the two people for discussion, it was actually to strengthen his own heart.

So I heard Zhang Fu and Yang Rong say this. How could he not know that they both suspected that this was a trick by the King of Han?

Although he now dislikes Zhu Gaoxu more and more for his lack of sense of propriety, when he saw the shabby bloody clothes on the case, he remembered the battle between Dongchang and Puzikou. If Zhu Gaoxu hadn't arrived in time, he would have been wearing dozens of clothes.

The Creation War protects him from danger, but he may not be able to survive.

This blood-stained clothes is not the blood-stained clothes of Zhu Gaoxu when he was assassinated this time. It is clearly an old thing from more than ten years ago!

After returning to the case and sitting down, he tried his best not to look at the old blood-stained clothes. He said in a deep voice: "The Shandong Ancha Division was originally responsible for arresting thieves, but they did not report the activities of the White Lotus Sect before. Later, the King of Han was assassinated.

They didn't even notice any rumors. I really don't know what the inspector is doing! Let the Jin Yiwei escort Peng Gang back to Beijing. I want to see if he is so fat and full of oil in Shandong.

,forgot what I should do!"

Yang Rong didn't care about Anchasi at this time. In his opinion, the previous information about the White Lotus Sect was obtained by the Jinyi Guards. There is no information about Anchasi at all, which shows that he has neglected his duty. He can't save and there is no need to save him.

.It's just that although Zhu Di was furious at this time, he didn't say anything about the King of Han's request for more guards. Could it be that he had something in mind?

"The King of Han asked for more guards, but the instructions were inaccurate. The guards in Tiance were personally assigned to him by me in the past. Their loyalty should not be compromised, but this time they were too careless. Yang Rong, go back and make plans with the others.

The order is to order the officers and soldiers who guard the Imperial Guard to be fined for three years and reduced to one rank each to remain in office. Let the imperial hospital select a few imperial doctors and bring the best medicine to Shandong to see the injury of the King of Han. I will also ask Zhang Qian to

The inner court will bring some gold, silver and silk to Le'an Prefecture to appease this man who only knows how to cause trouble!"

Zhang Fu arrived one step earlier than Yang Rong, so when he heard that Zhu Di's tone changed from a rebellious one to a serious one, and his eyes were often looking at something on the desk, he couldn't help but be a little confused, but he didn't dare to ask. When Zhu Di retired first

He asked Yang Rong and asked him to come forward. He just took a few steps forward. This time he finally saw the bloody clothes on the desk and suddenly woke up.

"Wen Bi, there are so many people in the Shandong Provincial Envoy Department that you can't keep, do you have any candidates?"

Faced with such a sudden problem, Zhang Fu suddenly became embarrassed. Although he had already thought of his cousin Zhang Xin who was far away in Jiaozhi at this time, it depends on the occasion to not avoid relatives. In the blink of an eye, he felt deeply

He bent down deeply and said, "Your Majesty, we should ask the cabinet about this civil service matter. I am a military general, so I really can't recommend any candidates."
