Chapter 230 Search
There were very few elite soldiers who could survive, and Li Fan's move was really too ruthless. Only then did the three camps, including the British Duke Zhang Yuangong, knew the power of the postmen.
The postmen were able to win more with few battles, not by any luck, but their strength was even more terrifying.
After this battle, the three camps could not help but slow down. When they arrived at Tianjin Wei, they could only see the shadow of sails disappearing on the sea from afar.
"Waste! Waste! What's the use of me? So many people in the West Mountain can't catch up. These are the three camps guarding the capital?
If the bandits attack the capital, do you want to give me out and surrender?" Xiao Zhu was furious. He knew that once Li Fan escaped, it would be difficult to catch him.
"I am guilty!" Zhang Yuangong knelt on the ground, not even daring to raise his head.
The atmosphere was a little heavy, and only Xiao Zhu's rapid breathing could be heard in the Yu Study room.
After waiting for a while, Feng Baocai said carefully: "Your Majesty! Although Li Fan escaped, his two wives are still in the capital, old slave..."
"Stop talking! I still disdain to use women to threaten others!" Xiao Zhu Yu scolded him before he was angry.
Feng Bao's face froze and he shut up immediately, but his heart became active. Xiao Zhu disdasted to threaten Li Fan with a woman, but did not say that he would not let him do it!
There are some things that the emperor cannot say or do, so he needs a slave like him. The factory guards are here to do such dirty work. Feng Bao is already thinking about how to get someone from the Zhang Mansion.
Zhang Yuangong, who had been kneeling on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty! Li Fan was poisoned by mistake and should be dead soon!
I have never heard of anyone who can drink poison and survive. Therefore, I boldly speculate that Li Fan is probably dead!
His men were afraid of being implicated, so they hurriedly ran away!
At this time, if Your Majesty can forgive these people's crimes, I believe they can return to the Ming Dynasty!"
Xiao Zhu's face relaxed a lot, but what Zhang Yuangong said was not unreasonable. When Li Fan was alive, the postmen naturally worked together. If Li Fan died, it would not be certain.
Without Li Fan, his subordinates would definitely have no leader. As long as he promised high officials and generous salaries, someone would definitely be moved.
As for what happened after conquering this group of people! The toothless tiger would do whatever he wanted to deal with it depends on his mood. But all this must be based on Li Fan's death. If it is poisoned, Li Fan will not be poisoned, then...
Xiao Zhu shook his head and threw away this ridiculous idea. Only the royal family has poison, and there is no cure to relieve it. If you take it, you will die.
Sande's body was already cold, and Li Fan must have died of death. He immediately said, "Zhang Yuangong! Feng Bao! I'll leave the matter of recruiting Nuer to do Dusi. If those people are obsessed with it, they will be wiped out all of them!"
...
In the early morning, the sun had just appeared on the horizon, and there was no one on the street.
A rapid sound of horse hooves broke the tranquility. Hundreds of Jinyiwei, wearing flying fish suits and embroidered spring swords, rushed past, bringing up several yellow leaves on the ground.
"Wow!" When we arrived at the Zhang Mansion, hundreds of Jinyiwei kicked off their horses. A thin Jinyiwei ordered loudly: "Every Zhang Mansion and no one is allowed to enter and exit!
The rest of the people went in with the officer to get people, and they looked at them carefully. Don’t go away with the criminals!”
"Yes!" The Jinyiwei responded in unison and surrounded the Zhang Mansion. More than a hundred other people followed the man and stepped on the steps of the Zhang Mansion.
The sound of smashing the door alarmed the Zhang family. No one in the Zhang family expected that the Jinyiwei would come to the door and suddenly became a mess.
"Who are you? This is the Zhang Mansion, not the place where your Jinyiwei will run wild!" When Zhang Jingxiu got the news, he saw teams of Jinyiwei rushing around in the yard and immediately said.
The thin Jinyiwei immediately changed into a smile when he saw Zhang Jingxiu, and clasped his fists and said, "Grand Prince! Liu Shouyou, the commander of the Jinyiwei, was ordered to capture the criminals. Please ask the eldest prince to do some convenience!"
"After order?" Zhang Jingxiu was so angry that he sneered: "This is the Zhang Mansion, how dare you be arrogant here?
I am determined to report to Your Majesty and give me justice to the Zhang family!"
Liu Shouyou was not afraid of Zhang Jingxiu's threat at all: "The officials were also ordered to do things. The eldest son handed over the family of rebellious Li Fan, and the officials left immediately!"
"You...! Li Fan's family is not in the mansion, so he has returned to the West Mountain long ago!" Zhang Jingxiu heard the Jinyiwei want to take his sister, his eyes and eyebrows raised, and he waved his sleeves and said.
Liu Shouyou said with a slight smile: "Since the eldest son doesn't want to hand over someone, then you will offend him! Search!"
The Jinyiwei searched without any scruples, and the sound of things shattering from time to time could be heard. Zhang Jingxiu's muscles twitched, and his eyes were staring at Liu Shouyou.
Liu Shouyou looked embarrassed. He knew the nature of his subordinates. The search was like a house search, and he wanted to smash all the annoying things.
But at this moment, he could not retreat, so he had to bite the bullet and hold on. After an hour, the Jinyiwei returned one by one, looking at Liu Shouyou and shook his head slightly.
Liu Shouyou's face turned cold and he stared at Zhang Jingxiu and said, "Young Master! Hiding the imperial court's crime is a serious crime. You have to think clearly, don't cause trouble for the Zhang family!"
"Qin criminal? Who said that Li Fan had committed the crime? Did he have the intention to take away his title as Marquis of Jingbei? Has he issued a document to arrest Li Fan?
If you have no will, be careful to tell you below to frame the loyal and good deeds!" Zhang Jingxiu took it back without hesitation.
The fact that Xiao Zhu wanted to poison Li Fan was not up to the forefront, and he could not convict Li Fan. Everything could only be done secretly, so Zhang Jingxiu said it was justified.
Liu Shouyou was speechless for a while and he spit out a word from his mouth for a long time: "Go!"
The Jinyiwei retreated huh, leaving behind a mess of Zhang's mansion. The butler said with a sad face: "Young Master! Zhang's mansion has become like this. What should I do when the master comes back?"
Zhang Jingxiu smiled bitterly and said, "What else can it be? The power of heaven is unpredictable!"
The Jinyiwei made a big fuss in the Zhang Mansion and spread all over the capital in less than a day. This is a dangerous signal. Some people are gloating, some are waiting and watching, and some are beginning to prepare for impeachment memorials...
When Zhang Ju returned home, he saw the messy mansion. He was not as angry as others imagined, but calmly ordered the servants to clean up.
The next morning, Zhang Juzheng resigned to Xiao Zhu on the grounds of his old age and weak. Xiao Zhu refused, so Zhang Juzheng resigned again. Three times later, Xiao Zhu agreed to Zhang Juzheng resign and return home.
The changes in these scenes made the civil and military officials in the court stunned, making the impeachment memorials prepared by many people become waste paper.
Unlike Zhang Juzheng's resignation, Liu Shouyou, the commander of the Jinyiwei, framed a senior official of the court, and was directly imprisoned by Xiao Zhu. The commander of the Jinyiwei was the former assistant of the Jinyiwei, Luo Sigong.
As Zhang Juzheng resigned, Shen Shixing became the trusted chief minister of the Ming Dynasty.
