Peerless Pirates

"Master Song, walk slowly, the ultimate demon king of infinity!" Qian Mancai stood at the entrance of the palace, pressing his hands down on his sides as a salute.

"My dear father-in-law, stay!" Song Zheng hugged the money cabinet and exited the palace gate with a smile. When he turned around, his face immediately darkened. His clenched teeth made his cheeks bulge slightly.

. His hands were retracted into his sleeves and his fists were clenched.

Even though it was June day, he still shuddered involuntarily when he recalled the conversation he had just had with the young emperor Pang Ying.

As expected by Song Zheng, Pang Ying applauded the high-profile arrest of Lu Bingxuan as a means to demonstrate his power. For Pang Ying, Song Zheng and You Si were his fists reaching into the political arena, and this fist exerted awe and prestige.

Ying was naturally happy. Especially when Song Zheng borrowed a prison car and beat gongs and drums to escort Lu Bingxuan into Jiangning City, Pang Ying was especially impressed.

If the little emperor ordered Huang Yuandu to strictly investigate the gangsters who attacked the trading house, which was the first time he made his voice heard, then this time Yousi's attack was his second shot, and it was also a heavy shot. The little emperor now has no

Instead of being weak at the beginning, he became more and more powerful, and he became more and more eager to take power.

Song Zheng knew that one of the reasons why the young emperor was so eager was that he was stimulated by the uprooting of the Ji family.

How huge was the Ji family, which had been passed down for hundreds of years? Under the joint efforts of Pang Hui and Huang Yuandu, it was also wiped out. During this period, the role played by Emperor Pang Ying was really minimal, and he was basically passive.

After the Ji family was exterminated, it was Daqi who really benefited. Whether it was the abolition of redundant troops or the return of salt tax revenue to the state, it was good for Daqi. However, in the eyes of the little emperor, Huang Yuandu and Huang Yuandu were in charge of these.

Pang Hui was the real beneficiary. But he himself was just a puppet who was used by others due to the situation. All he did was issue a few imperial edicts.

Because of this, the young emperor did not get to the bottom of Song Zheng's affairs about the Ji family. Before the Ji family's incident, Song Zheng had given Pang Ying a hint, and Pang Ying also guessed that Song Zheng was doing something behind his back, but he never did this.

After asking Song Zheng, this was also his city.

Pang Ying himself also knew that there was still a long way to go before he truly took power. Therefore, once Song Zheng took charge of Yousi, he urged Song Zheng to act quickly and turn Yousi into an iron fist and baton in his hands as soon as possible.

.

On the surface, the arrest of Lu Bingxuan seemed to be Song Zheng's move to retaliate against the Duke. In fact, he had to do it at the urging of the little emperor. Even if Lu Bingxuan was not arrested, there would still be Zhang Bingxuan, Wang Bingxuan and the like.

Yes, Song Zheng needs to catch it.

Now, Yousi's nationwide reorganization has just begun. The entire organization has just changed its name, and is far from reaching the point of unification. At this time, the little emperor will raise his fists, which is equivalent to putting Song Zheng on the fire. One

If he is not careful, Song Zheng will encounter a full-scale counterattack by the entire Daqi political circle. After all, the entire bureaucracy does not want to live in fear in the shadow of spies.

In the past, the Imperial City Division and Dark Eagle were just inquiring about information, and the two also checked and balanced each other. Officials have not yet felt how powerful they are. Now it is incredible. The Left and Right Divisions have carried out military and political division of labor, and have also obtained arrests.

Human power. How to prevent officials from being frightened and frightened?

One of the reasons why Song Zheng shuddered was that there were already several memorials to impeach Yousi on the desk of the young emperor. There were officials from Yushitai, officials from the Ministry of Punishment, and appeasement envoys from Jinghu Road and Jiangnan Road.

These were all put on the little emperor's desk before Song Zheng returned to Jiangning.

When returning to Jiangning from Yuanzhou, Song Zheng walked slowly. On the one hand, he was afraid that people from the Duke's Mansion would take risks, and on the other hand, he also wanted to test the officials' reaction. Unexpectedly, this reaction was really fast. Song Zheng could immediately imagine that,

When the officials learned that Lu Bingxuan was escorted to Jiangning by beating gongs and drums, more memorials would be placed on the young emperor's desk.

If the young emperor was a strong monarch and had already taken power, even if Song Zheng was criticized for doing so, he would not worry about his family and life. However, the current situation made Song Zheng extremely cautious. Once the officials from all over the world gathered together,

Attack, even the little emperor can't protect him.

Although Pang Ying also had this intention, in addition to asking Song Zheng to have definite evidence, he also asked Song Zheng to speed up his actions and strive to capture a few more officials to effectively build up Yousi's reputation.

Song Zheng had no interest in making enemies of the officials of the world, but he had to work hard. This was the reason why Song Zheng was frightened.

Under this situation, Song Zheng racked his brains to avoid becoming the target of public criticism. One of the ways was to get the Ministry of Punishment to work together. Specifically, the Ministry of Punishment sent personnel to follow the right department to handle the case. Arrest people, search, review cases, etc.

All procedures are completed by the Right Division, while the Punishment Department is responsible for finalizing the case. This can reduce the pressure on the Right Division. The Punishment Department is originally responsible for this job.

Pang Ying was very smart. After thinking for a while, he agreed to Song Zheng's proposal. He was not so arrogant that he didn't care about anything.

Regarding these situations, although Song Zheng only spent a short time talking to the young emperor, he spent a lot of time and effort, making Song Zheng still sweating after leaving the palace.

Compared with those impeachment memorials, what really worried Song Zheng was another thing: taking advantage of the little emperor's happiness, he told the Tibetan soldiers in Banyue Valley in Xuanfeng Town. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, Pang Ying

He waved his hands repeatedly, telling Song Zheng to ignore these things. This was really beyond Song Zheng's expectation.

For a country, it is absolutely not allowed to secretly harbor large-scale armed forces. Even when Huang Yuandu trained the Guards, it was in the name of a militia. When the time came, it was converted into a formal Guards. At that time, the royal family

The person in power was Huang Jiao, who tacitly allowed the Prime Minister's Mansion to train the military in order to deal with Pang Hui. Pang Ying was young at the time, so there was no way he could be considered a thief.

Now, the Duke's Mansion has hidden military power, but the young emperor directly told Song Zheng not to pay attention to it. The last time Song Zheng met Pang Ying, Pang Ying asked him to get a feel for the underbelly of the Duke's Mansion. This time his attitude changed drastically.

, I don’t know what the Duke’s Palace did in front of the young emperor. It seems that Pang Ying already knew what the Duke’s Palace was hiding.

Did the little emperor really know everything about the Duke's Mansion? Song Zheng was very doubtful. However, he did not dare to say anything else. The little emperor's attitude was very obvious, that is, he had great trust in the Duke's Mansion. Song Zheng was going to expose the old truth.

, it’s just asking for trouble.

Song Zheng even regretted the last time he told the little emperor about Lian Shui'er. At that time, the little emperor said that he wanted to liaise with him and the Duke of Pang. It was ridiculous that he only focused on explaining the matter of rushing to Dajin, and did not fundamentally solve the problem.

Find out the attitude of the little emperor.

What shocked Song Zheng the most was that the young emperor actually made a subtle argument for Pang Tong, saying that the Duke's office might have misunderstood Song Zheng, and told Song Zheng to ignore it and concentrate on running You Si's errands.

What else could Song Zheng say? He had no choice but to respond.

In fact, Song Zheng got a lot of information from Lu Bingxuan, including the collusion between the Duke's office and Jiang Kui, the connection with Di Fei Lao Bald Lu, etc. Originally, Song Zheng wanted to remind the young emperor of these things. However,

, after seeing the little emperor's attitude, Song Zheng had to feel depressed.

Thinking of this, Song Zheng couldn't help but admire Pang Tong's sophistication. As soon as he found some clues, the old guy plugged the leak. There were various signs that Pang Tong had evil intentions, but it was difficult for Song Zheng to find real evidence.

Song Zheng was puzzled as to why the young emperor trusted him so much.

Song Zheng also recalled that at the beginning of the last poisonous salt investigation, Pang Tong was poisoned by coincidence. At that time, the young emperor and Queen Mother Huang Jiao were extremely concerned about it, probably not only because Pang Tong was a highly respected veteran.

"Lord Song?" Song Zheng was walking and meditating when he was stopped by a voice. He looked up and saw a black-faced Forbidden Army Chief of Fire, leading a group of sergeants, stopping in front of him.

"Lai Dazhi? Are you on duty today?" Song Zheng calmed down and smiled. This man was Lai Dazhi, the fire chief of the Eighth Fire under Qu Ren's tent in the third brigade of the Zhenzi Camp of the Forbidden Army. When Song Zheng first entered the Zhenzi Camp

At that time, he once won all of Lai Dazhi's silver. Later, he asked Lai Dazhi to lead him in gambling and won three thousand taels of silver. In the end, he rewarded Lai Dazhi based on his merits and gave him 10% of the money.

"It's a small one on duty. Have you just come out of the palace?" Lai Dazhi chuckled.

Song Zheng nodded, "How have you been doing recently? But you won money again?"

"No! No!" Lai Dazhi waved his hands repeatedly, "Commander Han runs the army very strictly. Zhenzi Camp is still the same as when you were there. Gambling is prohibited."

Commander Han is Han Kui. With Han Kui's ambition, he would not allow himself to transform from a sergeant under his command into a gambler.

"That's good. Okay, let's go get busy!" Song Zheng waved his hand and turned around. However, as soon as he took two steps forward, his body tilted and he let out an ouch.

Lai Dazhi quickly ran up and supported Song Zheng, "Sir Song, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's okay. I was a little distracted just now and accidentally sprained my foot." Song Zheng grinned, "You go and do your work, I can still leave."

"How can that be done? Come here, I will help you." Lai Dazhi couldn't help but said, he set up Song Zheng and said to the group of forbidden soldiers, "Big Mouth, come here and help Master Song."

A long-mouthed forbidden soldier ran over, and Song Zheng said quickly, "Dazhi, just help me. Don't bother the other brothers. After all, it's duty time." Just kidding, Song Zheng was just pretending and wanted to borrow some money.

I asked Lai Dazhi what was going on in the palace during this period. How could one more person be an eyesore?

"Okay, listen to Master Song." Lai Dazhi responded quickly and ordered Dazui to lead the people to continue patrolling. He held up Song Zheng's arm, "Sir, are you leaving the imperial city or returning to Yousi Yamen?

"

"Go back to Yousi Yamen first. It's not far and won't take you long."

"Master Song, what are you talking about? This is where we are. If it weren't for you, I would have lost all my family wealth."

"Haha, how can it be so exaggerated?" Song Zheng smiled and patted Lai Dazhi on the shoulder.

"Really, the three hundred taels of silver you gave me saved my mother's life. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even be able to bear the disease."

"Oh, how is the old man doing now?"

"Everything is fine, and I used the money to buy me a wife. No, I talk about you every day, saying that you are the benefactor of our family."

"You don't dare to be a benefactor." Song Zheng said with a smile, "As long as the old man is in good health and his family is safe, that is better than anything else."

…

A quarter of an hour later, when Song Zheng waved goodbye to Lai Dazhi at the door of Yousi Yamen, he had already figured out the situation.
