Chapter Thirty-two Swords and Tensions

From the day of Tianqi's death, Zhu Youjian was invited to the palace by Wei Zhongxian. He was frightened and scared for a whole day and night. He had already made a secret sworn in his heart: A real man should not have power for a day!

In order to regain the power of the factory guards under Wei Zhongxian's hands, Zhu Youjian first gave favors in the inner court, allowing tens of thousands of eunuchs and palace maids to return to their hearts.

But just eunuchs and palace maids are not enough to return home. This is just the first step in his plan to seize power. To completely seize the power of the factory guards, Wei Zhongxian must be brought down.

Zhu Youjian of course knew that Wei Zhongxian had more achievements than mistakes in the Ming Dynasty. The reason why he was notorious was nothing more than taking the blame for the Apocalypse.

But Wei Zhongxian had to step down, which was uncontroversial. There were two reasons: First, Wei Zhongxian was called Nine Thousand Years; second, all parts of the country were building temples for Wei Zhongxian; third, he divided the imperial power belonging to Zhu Youjian.

No matter which of these three reasons is the way to die, Zhu Youjian is already magnanimous if he doesn't kill him.

One month after Zhu Youjian ascended the throne, naturally many people moved closer to him and the Luo family of the Jinyiwei family was the first Wuxun family to move closer to him.

The Luo family is the Jinyiwei family with the deepest heritage in the Ming Dynasty. In history, there were six generations of Jinyiwei, and three of them served as the commander commander of the capital, namely Luo An, Luo Sigong, and Luo Yangxing.

Of course, Luo Yangxing is only the commander of the Jinyiwei and has not yet become the commander.

Luo Yangxing's father Luo Sigong was the last commander of the Jinyiwei. Unfortunately, he was not a member of the eunuch party and was excluded by Wei Zhongxian. Luo Yangxing's cute father went to the Jinyiwei and became a household in the Jinyiwei. Naturally, he was not valued during the Tianqi Dynasty and was suppressed by the minions of the eunuch party such as Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, and Cui Yingyuan.

However, the Luo family has deep roots in the Jinyiwei tree and has people from the Luo family in all aspects. As soon as Luo Yangyan surrendered to the Xinhuang, he was promoted to the commander of the Jinyiwei by the Xinhuang and rehabilitated the unjust case in Huangshan.

Zhu Youjian ordered Luo Yangxing to rehabilitate the unjust case in Huangshan. Of course, the purpose was not to seek justice for Wu Yangchun, but to take the Huangshan unjust case as an opportunity to take down the factory guards who created the unjust case in Huangshan and cut off the minions around Wei Zhongxian.

The so-called unjust case in Huangshan is as long as a piece of cloth. Simply put, Wu Yangchun's slave Wu Rong embezzled the Wu family's property and hooked up with Wu Yangchun's concubine. Wu Yangchun sued the official but was bribed by Wu Rong and ran away.

Later, Wu Rong went to Beijing to surrender to Wu Kongjia, who suspected of having a revenge on killing his father. Wu Kongjia passed the Jinshi in the fifth year of Tianqi and defected to the eunuch party. In order to avenge his father, he joined forces with the eunuch party to concoct the unjust case in Huangshan, which led to the extinction of the Wu family.

Of course, the Wu family is not a good thing. They are really powerful and first-class in the local area. Since Wu Shouli, the ancestor of Wu Yangchun, the Wu family has occupied the wood planting and mountain grounds of Huangshan, and has been good at profit for many years and has hidden in the mountains. This is why they have become a wealthy man in Huizhou.

...

Another night passed.

The dim oil lamp flashed and shone brightly, reflecting a lonely and cool figure. The air was filled with an indescribable odor, which made people feel sick.

Wu Rong leaned against the cold wall, and kept pulling straw on his hands to cover himself to relieve the coldness of his body.

Looking up at the bright moon outside the iron window, Wu Rong couldn't help but sigh: "I'm so proud!"

He has always been extremely cautious in his work. According to his past temperament, after he had defeated the Wu family, he should have taken over the wealth and ran away, and then found a secluded place to hide his name and be rich for the rest of his life.

But after he brought down the giant Wu family, he became inexplicably floating up and actually bought a property in the capital. He lived with Wu Yangchun's concubine openly, and lived a shameless and happy life every day.

"Don't panic. Although it was the Jinyiwei who was captured by me, Tian Ergeng was the commander of the Jinyiwei. He would definitely come to save me!" Wu Rong kept cheering himself up in his heart and forced himself to calm down.

In his impression, the factory man Wei Zhongxian was still in power, and the commander of the Jinyiwei Tian Ergeng was domineering. These two backstages were enough to save his life.

He learned from the discussions of others and rumors in the market that the officialdom should be similar to those in the world. If the boss can't save his younger brother, then is there anyone willing to work hard for the boss?

However, although Wu Rong was extremely smart, as a slave from a businessman family, his knowledge was still too shallow. He rarely came into contact with the officialdom, and he did not know the changes in the officialdom, nor did he know that there was a saying that he would throw away his pawns and protect his carts in the officialdom.

The integrity of officials has always been the most unlimited. Nowadays, even the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai know how to worry about the country and the people, but the officials, haha...

...

At this time, the Jinyiwei Nanfushi Yamen was in a tense scene, and the smell of gunpowder was spreading wildly.

"Luo Yangxing! What are you doing? Who instructed you to restart the Huangshan case?"

Tian Ergeng, who was originally quite handsome, looked ferocious, but he looked a little ugly under the light.

Luo Yang's nature is supported by the emperor, and Tian Ergeng, who is not afraid of being timid and weak, smiled faintly: "Has the commander forgotten the responsibilities of our Jinyiwei? Our Jinyiwei is the personal army of the emperor. Besides the emperor's will, who can command us?"

"Son of Heaven..." Tian Ergeng felt a little cold when he learned that Luo Yangxing had reversed the case.

For a moment, Tian Ergeng, the commander of the Jinyiwei, Xu Xianchun, the governor of the Jinyiwei, Cui Yingyuan, and a thousand households, all of them calmed down.

As the emperor's personal army, the Jinyiwei has always been synonymous with the emperor's hawks and dogs. There is only one owner of the Jinyiwei, that is, the emperor.

As one of the most notorious secret agencies in the Ming Dynasty, if the Jinyiwei loses the emperor's trust, then they will be a loser.

Therefore, every commander of the Jinyiwei must be loyal to the emperor in order to gain the emperor's trust.

Tian Ergeng's eyes were red and he shouted loudly: "Nonsense! You Luo Yangxing is just a commander of the little Jinyiwei. If the emperor wants to investigate the Huangshan case, he also asked us to investigate. Why do you go past us and ask a name to make you a little person who can't get on the table?"

Luo Yang's character was still calm and said lightly: "Why? As the minion of His Majesty, isn't our Jinyiwei relying on His Majesty's trust? Now His Majesty trusts me and grants me the power to supervise the Huangshan case. Why, the commander is not convinced?"

Tian Ergeng said: "We are all loyal to Your Majesty and are all minions of Your Majesty. Your Majesty will never turn a blind eye to us. You must be the one who interferes with it and provokes the discord."

Luo Yangxing said: "Are you the minions of Your Majesty? Or the minions of Nine Thousand Years? You touch your conscience to answer this question."
