An assassin? Call me the Master of Raising Prices!
Chapter 168 I just want to hear a voice
From the third grade! Zheng Rongqing was startled. Wasn't it the Sixth Minister who started arresting him? And Mr. Hou, can these people eat?
Still five!
He was a little hesitant and hesitated to step forward. It's okay to kill a few fifth-grade ones, but it's not easy to mess with third-grade ones! Those people and students are all over the world. If they want revenge, I can't help it...
"Master Jiu, how about..."
Seeing Zheng Rongqing dilly-dallying, Zhao saw through his mind at a glance and said with a smile, "Just write it. Do you think it will be fine if you stop now?"
Shaking his head, he explained, "What the Emperor means!"
He said, patting his shoulder and pressing him on the chair. Zheng Rongqing sighed, unable to think of a way to refuse, so he could only think for a moment, dip his pen in ink and write down five names.
After drying the ink, he handed it to Zhao Jiu. After just one glance, he couldn't help but shake his head, "I know this is a job that offends people, but there's no need to offend so harshly!"
"Why did you write about this Li Shou? How long has he been in the cabinet? Who would believe that he was treasonous? And this seventy-one-year-old Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He was begging for bones last year. He was half buried in the ground. A big bet?"
"And this." Zhao pointed to the last name, "Why are you writing about Marquis Li? He is hereditary and has a reputation for neglect. Are you out of your mind? Go and join in the rebellion!"
Zheng Rongqing curled his lips, it wasn't that he didn't want to write about these people, it was because they were the only ones left after excluding the powerful and well-backed ones. As for Mr. Li Hou, it was because he knew Mr. Li’s son from the title of Marquis, and they met him in a brothel.
"This...I haven't seen other princes..." Zheng Rongqing scratched his head in embarrassment. Isn't this forcing someone to do something difficult?
After thinking for a while, it seemed that this was really the case, so he knocked on the armrest, thought for a moment and said, "I said that if you write it, Professor Li will definitely not be able to do it. If it were another minister, the six ministers would kill two ministers at once, which would not sound good! The minister of the Ministry of official affairs Change to a younger one! Mr. Hou..."
"It's free for now. I'll go ask Mr. Lu. This bitch just turned away and the shopkeeper thought he was addicted!"
He listened to what Zhao said and corrected it. After a while, Zheng Rongqing handed over a new list, including a minister, two ministers, both of whom were not in the same department, plus a young minister from Dali Temple.
Exactly four people, much more reasonable than the previous one.
After reading it, Zhao felt much satisfied, nodded and said, "Go and do your work, I'll go find Mr. Lu."
Before Zheng Rongqing could react, Zhao already took the list, put on his coat and went out.
After walking in circles for two quarters of an hour, I finally arrived in front of the Jinyiwei Yamen. I followed the path in my memory and walked inside. Fortunately, there were people on duty along the way. Otherwise, given Zhao Jiu's familiarity, it would be strange not to get lost.
"Sir, are you here to see Mr. Lu?" Xiao Qi, the waiter at the door, bent down and asked.
"Well, is Mr. Lu inside?"
"Here, my subordinates will go in and report first. Please wait a moment, sir." Xiaoqi saluted and hurriedly walked in. Soon he came out and took Zhao inside.
Zhao waved all the errands to go out. After closing the door, he stepped forward and put down the list. He said softly, "Fifth Master, this is the list of people to be arrested. However, there is still one person who has not yet been decided. Fifth Master needs to refer to it for details."
"Oh?" Lu Wenyu, who was drinking tea, took the list. After reading it for a while, he was a little dissatisfied and asked, "Why are they all civil servants?"
"Isn't the Emperor planning the Northern Expedition..."
"Oh, okay, I was careless. There were too many things going on these days, and my mind was confused." Lu Wenyu quickly realized what he was doing and quickly found an excuse that was not an excuse.
Tapping the thin paper, "Is it missing a little? In this way, plus the general judge of the capital government office, there are still two marquises."
Now it was Zhao's turn and he didn't understand. He killed Tongjuan just incidentally, but what happened to the two marquises?
He asked in confusion, "Are these two marquises too much? I can understand killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, but if you push too hard, it's not good, right?"
"The emperor only wants to hear one voice, and the prince's supervisor cannot hear too many voices! The third prince is gone, and the second prince has to suffer a little loss, otherwise the voices will be mixed!"
After adding three names, Lu Wenyu explained and then made a copy.
He ordered, "The Imperial Army cannot move. It involves too much. I will say hello to the Beijing camp. When the manpower is insufficient, I will transfer people from Qianhusuo and Beijing camp. Talk to me before arresting people."
"That's it, you go back first, I want to go to the palace to see the emperor."
"Yes, I take your orders." After Zhao bowed his hands and saluted, he walked out with the changed list.
Lu Wenyu, on the other hand, waited for the ink to dry before changing into official uniform, putting on a large cloak, and said outside, "Prepare the car, I want to enter the palace!"
The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate. The coachman opened the curtain for Lu Wenyu and said softly, "Sir, we have arrived in front of the palace gate. The eunuch has already gone in to report. Let's wait in the car."
Lu Wenyu nodded and said nothing, sorting out his thoughts and what he wanted to say.
"Master Lu, Eunuch Feng is already waiting inside. Let me lead the way for Master Lu."
After hearing what the eunuch said outside the carriage, Lu Wenyu got out of the carriage, said "ok" and followed the eunuch inside.
In front of the Qingxuan Palace, Eunuch Feng saluted and asked, "Master Lu, have you got any idea about the military supplies?"
"Yes, it's time to report it to the emperor. Maybe the emperor will be happy and his illness will be cured."
Eunuch Feng smiled and led Lu Wenyu inside.
As usual, Yuan Zhuo sat on the altar and meditated. He didn't open his eyes until Eunuch Feng reported softly and came down. He said, "Wen Yu is here? Please sit down and tell me if you have anything to say."
"Your Majesty, this is the list. Arrest people after New Year's Eve, and execute them on the fourth day after trial." Lu Wenyu handed over the list respectfully.
Yuan Zhuo only glanced at the list and understood the meaning. He smiled with relief and said, "Is there something on this list written by you, Wenyu? Ah?"
"I participated, but most of it was confirmed by Mu Zhi. I dare not take credit for it." Lu Wenyu sat down and smiled.
"Okay, okay, it's just the three of us who are still hiding it? I know you don't want to be involved in the dispute over the crown prince, but the second and fourth brothers have crossed the line a bit, especially after the third brother was taken away, he jumped up and down and was very unruly. It's good to knock them!" Yuan Zhuo held his hands, tapped his fingers lightly, and said in a faint tone.
After thinking for a moment, he continued, "This marquis is also, relying on his merits, he has publicly discussed border affairs many times, and he is restless..."
"Just follow the list!"
......
Time flies, and it's New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye. Although this year is as lively as before, there is a different taste hidden in the liveliness.
Recently, the inspections for entering and leaving the capital have become much stricter, and there have even been several more random inspections. Some people have already smelled the tension in the air, and many people in the officialdom have even asked around, trying to get some information.
Unfortunately, nothing was found.
