Journey Through the Plane of the Lord God
Chapter 15 The Princess (Part 2)
Wei Liangqing, a tall man in brocade clothes who bowed his head and bowed his head, was a close nephew of the 9,000-year-old Wei Zhongxian clan. He was a true confidant who was personally promoted by the 9,000-year-old Wei Zhongxian after he assumed power.
Therefore, in terms of titles, they are much closer than simply superiors and subordinates.
"Report to uncle, there are some clues about the child."
The words of the big man in brocade shook the gloomy spirit of Nine Thousand Years Old, and he leaned forward slightly to listen carefully.
"According to Dongchang's secret letter, Zhu Shilin Pingzhi from Fuzhou met the nobleman and her maid on the way out of Fuzhou."
"And in the past half month since he stepped into the vicinity of the capital, two strange young masters have appeared beside him."
"My child is suspicious, suspicious of those two..."
At the end of his words, Wei Liangqing, a handsome man in fine clothes, deliberately paused for a moment.
The nine-thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian, the superior eunuch Bingbi, who was sitting in the wicker chair, quickly spoke out based on the information he had learned from various aspects during this period.
"Liang Qing suspects that those two young masters are the nobleman and her maid we are looking for?"
"Well, it is indeed possible!"
According to the secret letter handed over by Dongchang, the original pursuit plan was going well, and the closest thing to success was that Li Yao, the criminal officer of the Hundred Households in Dongchang, was only a few miles away from the noble man.
But after meeting Lin Pingzhi, the traces of that noble man's movements completely disappeared.
I had never suspected Lin Pingzhi before, but on the one hand, Lin Pingzhi's high-profile approach was not in line with the style of harboring important criminals; on the other hand, he kept his every move in the open, and civilian officials and gentry greeted him along the way, allowing Jin Yiwei and Dongchang to
There is simply no way to defeat the power in the darkness.
Of course, on the surface, the Jinyiwei also has the responsibility of supervising the officials and scholars, but that requires the emperor to issue an explicit decree.
And since the Emperor was seriously ill after all, it was impossible for Wei Zhongxian to go to the Emperor who was seriously ill just to investigate Lin Pingzhi.
"Uncle really knows everything, and the child thinks so too."
Wei Liangqing, a handsome man in brocade clothes, flattered Wei Zhongxian, who was sitting high up, and felt a little relieved, with a look of understanding on his lips.
Standing up, with his hands clasped behind his gorgeous eunuch uniform, Wei Zhongxian stepped down from the wicker chair, walking back and forth and meditating quietly.
The nobleman's running away from home was originally a matter belonging to the clan, and he shouldn't have searched for it so hard.
But the noble man's father was, after all, the emperor's younger brother, and the reason why he ran away from home was also to seek elixir for the emperor's illness. After being informed by the noble man's father, the emperor forced himself to stay ill and gave himself an order in person,
Only then did we have to go to war.
well!
Wei Zhongxian sighed deeply when he thought of this.
It was all caused by the rumors spread by those rebellious officials and corrupt scholars in Donglin. They said they had some conspiracy to seize power in the palace while the emperor was sick with cholera. The nobleman and his father had misled me a lot.
!
Oh my goodness!
I am a majestic nine-thousand-year-old person, and my life, wealth, and wealth are all tied to the safety of the emperor. I can definitely say that I am the one who sincerely hopes that the emperor will recover from his illness in this panic-stricken Ming Dynasty!
If you want to seek a magical medicine for the emperor's illness honestly, our family will not send anyone to help, but we will certainly not stop you!
Thinking of the nobleman's father, who had close contacts with some officials in Donglin during this period, Wei Zhongxian's eyes flashed with a trace of depression, he looked up at the palm eunuch Wang Tigan who was still prostrate on the ground, and said in a low voice.
"Today at noon, when our family was serving the Emperor to take medicine, the Emperor even asked about that noble man."
"It's a good thing that she's coming back to Beijing soon. It will probably make the emperor let go of some of his worries."
"Wang Tiqian, just send some people from Dongchang to secretly escort them into Beijing smoothly. Don't let any more accidents happen!"
"Yes, ancestor."
After hearing the words of the 9,000-year-old Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tiqian, who was lying on the ground, stood up quickly, half-bowed in front of his ancestor, and said respectfully.
"However, I have another idea, and I want to report it to my ancestors!"
Having just learned that Lin Pingzhi deceived his subordinates, causing him to be angered by his ancestors for almost failing to complete the task, Wang Tiqian, who was not big-minded at all, became completely jealous of Lin Pingzhi.
But after all, it was Lao Yin Coin who had been playing tricks for many years. After understanding the current situation, a brilliant idea came to Wang Tiqian's mind.
"explain!"
"Haier suggested to our ancestors not to protect him secretly, but to identify himself clearly and send a large team of troops from Dongchang to escort the noble man with great fanfare."
How dare this bitch question his decision to change?
Wei Zhongxian raised his eyebrows in displeasure, but did not reveal his inner feelings, but said calmly.
"Oh? Why is this?"
"Old ancestor, that noble man and Lin Pingzhi, a newcomer from Donglin, traveled all the way to Peking together through hardships and hardships!"
"This man and woman have been traveling all the way for several months. Who knows if there will be anyone on the road..."
Wang Tiqian's words echoed in the house deep in the palace. Although he only said most of the words, the meaning contained in them really made our nine-thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian's eyes light up!
As the most famous bamboo and stone scholar among the younger generation of Donglin literati, Lin Pingzhi, although because he is young and has not yet taken power, is not yet a mortal enemy that Wei Zhongxian wants to get rid of immediately.
However, its huge reputation and seemingly bright future are indeed a thorn in the flesh of the eunuch faction bosses. They are displeased no matter how they look at it. Their negative comments have been repeatedly discussed in the internal discussions of Dongchang and Jinyiwei. Absolutely out of mouth.
The reason why Li Yao, the criminal officer of the Hundred Households in Dongchang, wanted to intercept and kill Lin Pingzhi as soon as they met was also influenced by this.
If, as Wang Tiqian said, his journey with the nobleman was made public from the side, then in the Ming Dynasty, where etiquette was strict, the clan had only two choices, even if it was for the sake of the royal family's face - either recruit Lin Pingzhi. Son-in-law, either kill Lin Pingzhi to show his innocence.
It can be said that no matter which choice is made, it will be beneficial and harmless to the eunuch party.
Although given Lin Pingzhi's identity, it is unlikely that he will be killed to show his innocence, if he chooses to become the husband-in-law of the noble son of the clan, he can achieve the eunuch's purpose of weakening the younger generation of Donglin in an alternative way.
You must know the iron rule in the Ming Dynasty's ancestral system that "a prince-in-law is not allowed to be an official, and his son is not allowed to be appointed to the imperial rank" in the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty. This is not a simple joke...
————————————————
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is another sunny day.
Lin Pingzhi and Zhou Yuning's convoy stopped when they were only ten miles away from the capital city of Peiping.
Zhou Yuning, who was called Miss, stood in front of Lin Pingzhi in a pretty way. She took off her veil for the first time, revealing a beautiful and charming face.
Although she said she was noble, she had never come into contact with a handsome man like Lin Pingzhi in her past circle.
In addition, after spending so many days together, she also participated in so many literati poetry gatherings with Lin Pingzhi. She could not stop admiring Lin Pingzhi for his prostitutes from later generations and the talents he showed in poetry gatherings.
The combination of the two made the girl's heart well up with the sadness of parting, and she said to Lin Pingzhi with red eyes.
"Little girl, here I wish Mr. Lin to win the gold medal..."
Unfortunately, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer to the motorcade.
A large group of cavalrymen came galloping in with flags fluttering, but they were fighting under the banner of the emperor's younger brother, King Xin.
There were many convoys on the official road, and the cavalry came galloping. The merchants along the road quickly dodged. Such a high-profile movement made the head of the horse guard guarding Lin Pingzhi's group feel slightly relieved. He felt that this group of people was not targeting him and others.
Come.
But he never expected it.
Less than twenty steps away from Lin Pingzhi's Fuwei Escort convoy, this group of cavalry dismounted, put away their weapons and half-knelt down to salute.
The leader was a eunuch in charge of Prince Xin's palace who was wearing a brown servant uniform. He trotted over with a surprised smile and kneeled respectfully in front of Zhou Yuning, who was standing next to Lin Pingzhi, and his expression changed slightly in an instant.
"Wang Cheng'en, the eunuch in charge of the palace, sincerely welcomes the princess back to the capital."
His loud voice caused an uproar among the caravan civilians watching on the official road...
