When Chongzhen was assassinated, the first person to come to hear the news was the Queen Zhou who was closely related to him. Soon, Zhang Yan, Concubine Tian, ​​Concubine Yuan, Zhang Wanru and Li Lingyu also arrived one after another.

When there are too many women, there are naturally people in the room who are crying and crying. They are worried about Chongzhen's assassination.

This was the first time that Empress Zhou was angry and threatened to attack Lu Jiude and the eunuchs who were in charge of the meal tonight. Even the chef in the imperial kitchen did not let go and asked the emperor to kill them all.

Zhu Youjian was also very scared. After the inspection by Gao Quan, the leader of the Great Guard, he found that the dagger Luo Yunyu used to assassinate the king's killing horse was actually quenched with an extremely poisonous "throat seal". If Zhu Youjian was stabbed by Luo Yunyu, even if it was just a layer of skin, Zhu Youjian would probably lose his life.

Fortunately, Zhu Youjian maintained the habit of running and lifting iron on weekdays. His physical fitness was far superior to ordinary people. He didn't even get Luo Yun's hair stinged, otherwise he would have really lost his burp this time.

Empress Zhou said: "Emperor, Lu Jiude is negligent in his duties, and the eunuchs and the chefs in the imperial kitchen even knew that they were mixed up with the assassin. What is the use of such waste? Just drag them down and kill them. You won't be upset."

Lu Jiude, Hu Lianshan and others quickly fell to the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic, begging: "Your Majesty, please spare your life! Your Majesty, please spare your life!"

Zhu Youjian patted the back of Queen Zhou's hand and comforted him: "Queen, don't worry too much. I am negligent in the assassination this time. I will definitely learn from my lessons and will not give the thieves any chance again.

As for Lu Jiude, Hu Lianshan and others, let’s first look at the investigation report of the factory guards. If the assassination is related to them, I will peel them off; if it has nothing to do with them, I will discuss the merits and demerits according to today’s performance.

This time, thanks to Hu Lianshan's help in rescue, he was the first to discover the inappropriate assassin and warned me so that I could escape the assassin's assassin's assassin as soon as possible;

Then when the assassin chased Yu Zhen, Hu Lianshan saw the opportunity as soon as possible and picked up a chair to knock the assassin down. This gave me the opportunity to fight back and penetrate the assassin with a sword."

"What happened?" Empress Zhou's expression couldn't help but ease, and even gave Hu Lianshan a hint of gratitude.

You should know that the concubines in the harem have not yet given birth to a dragon son for Chongzhen. If Chongzhen was assassinated at this time, the ministers would definitely choose one son from the royal relatives to inherit the throne. Then the status of Empress Zhou, Concubine Tian and others, as the widows of Chongzhen, would plummet.

Hu Lianshan saved Chongzhen's life, which was equivalent to saving their lives to the concubines in the harem, so he was naturally very grateful.

When Hu Lianshan heard the emperor admit his success, he was so happy that his heart was about to explode. Fortunately, he had been in the palace for more than ten years and had been waiting for opportunities diligently, so he could forcefully suppress his excitement.

Hu Lianshan said humbly: "Your Majesty respects villains so much. Your Majesty is the emperor and is protected by God. Even if there is no villain, he can survive this disaster safely. How can the villain's slight achievements come from?"

Zhu Youjian waved his hand and said, "God is merit, and mistakes are merits. As the emperor, I must reward you for your merits and punish you for your mistakes. Only in this way can I convince the subjects and guests from all directions. If I don't reward you for your merits, what's the difference with a foolish monarch?"

At this moment, Wang Chengen came back to report that the investigation against the assassin had already achieved preliminary results.

In order to avoid suspicion, Empress Zhou, Zhang Yan and her concubines left Dongge after giving Chongzhen some advice.

Zhu Youjian asked Wang Chengen: "Who is the assassin?"

Wang Chengen replied: "Your Majesty, the assassin is named Luo Yunqi, and he is an imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital. He was admitted to the hospital three years ago by Lin Xiao, a judge of the Imperial Hospital, and was only admitted to the hospital after being evaluated by Lin Xiao.

In today's assassination case, Luo Yunqi first killed a little eunuch, stripped the little eunuch's clothes and pretended to be a eunuch, and then mixed into the team of eunuchs who passed on food, and made bad plans to His Majesty.

According to investigation, the young eunuch who was killed was named Fang Youde. After two years of entering the palace, the body was found under the bed of the courtyard where Luo Yunjun lived. I judged that Fang Youde was just a victim and should have nothing to do with the case of Luo Yunjun assassination."

"Where is Lin Xiao, a judge of the Imperial Hospital?" Zhu Youjian said in a deep voice: "Is this person in harmony with Luo Yunxi? Have you investigated the factory guards?"

Wang Chengen said: "I have sent Wu Yingyuan, a thousand-person household, to capture Lin Xiao, and it is expected that there will be a result soon."

After a while, Wu Yingyuan returned to the palace to report to Zhu Youjian: "Your Majesty, the villain led the man to Lin Mansion to capture Lin Xiao, but how could it be a step later? Lin Xiao's family has been extinct and there is no living."

Zhu Youjian's face darkened when he heard this. Lin Xiao's situation was exactly the same as that of Huo Weihua. He was killed early before the factory guards arrived. It seemed that the other party's organization was very tight. The exposed thieves such as Huo Weihua, Lin Xiao, and Luo Yunqi were just the tip of the iceberg!

At this point, the case of Luo Yunqi assassination of Chongzhen was basically found out. Luo Yunqi, Lin Xiao, Han Yu, Huo Weihua and Zhou Yanru were all party. They were secretly plotting to make plans and killed Tianqi Zhu Youxiao.

After the incident was leaked, he was eager to jump over the wall and planned the assassination of Chongzhen. Fortunately, Luo Yunqi acted as an assassin for the first time. He was not experienced and Hu Lianshan was extremely smart. He just let Chongzhen escape from the sky, without the descendants of his brother Bu Zhu Youxiao.

The case was revealed, and the next step was to reward merits and punishments. First, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Hospital and the Imperial Hospital were involved in this case and were both dismissed. Lu Jiude and the team of eunuchs who came to pass on the meal were all punished for being neglected to prevent the attack, and all of them were beaten to the point of being beaten to the point of being beaten.

Among all the people involved in the case of Luo Yunqi assassinating the King and Killing the Lord, only Hu Lianshan, who made the contribution to rescue the Lord, was rewarded. Zhu Youjian vigorously promoted Hu Lianshan to be the eunuch of the Silijian, ranking third after Wang Chengen and Zhang Chaozhong.

The positions of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty were at least three or four, and seven or eight. Just like the county governments in later generations, the eunuchs in charge of printing were equivalent to county magistrates, who controlled the overall situation. eunuchs in Bingbi were the deputy county magistrates, and each was in charge of a matter.

Therefore, Hu Lianshan, who made the contribution to rescue the emperor, was promoted to the eunuch of the Silijian, and it did not seem abrupt. Hu Lianshan's responsibility was undoubtedly a major initiative of Zhu Youjian to plagiarize from the Qing Dynasty.

This time, Luo Yunqiu's assassination of the king's killing was almost successful, which made Zhu Youjian realize that there were still huge omissions in the preservation work around him. The eunuchs who did not understand martial arts and were not qualified to wear weapons were unable to protect themselves; the great guard who had the ability to protect themselves was not allowed to enter the hall unless summoned by the emperor, which made Luo Yunqiu take advantage of the loophole.

To this end, Zhu Youjian decided to order Hu Lianshan to form a violent institution specializing in defending himself and the royal family members, and select a group of young eunuchs with qualifications to learn martial arts, so that the guards of the inner eunuchs could teach martial arts to the young eunuchs.

Of course, in addition to defending the Tian family, this institution will also obey the emperor's instructions and assassinate some enemies that the emperor cannot defeat in the future.

Zhu Youjian named this institution "Blood Drop", and Hu Lianshan was the first leader of the "Blood Drop" that shocked the world in later generations.
