In late spring, the grass and trees in Chengdu are very lush.The ancient and simple commander's yamen is like a garden.
Deep in the shade of the tree, incense lingers.Hou Musheng of Xiping was sitting on a cushion on a stone bench, looking at the chessboard on the stone table in front of him.Opposite the stone table, sitting was a young lady with a slightly bulging belly.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a cloth robe came over and leaned over to Mu Sheng's ear and said in a deep voice: General Xu is here, bringing the guests.
Please General Xu.Mu Sheng ordered.He then raised his head and looked at the maid holding a wooden plate opposite him. Mrs. Fu Shayi went into the house to rest for a while, be careful.
After hearing this, Sha Yi, a little girl from the Yi tribe, stood up tactfully and said, "I'll leave."
Not long after, Xu Tao, the left deputy general of Mu Shengjun, walked in alone.
He held his fists and saluted, then approached and whispered: Marquis, the person who came was Zhang He, the head of the Ministry of Revenue. He heard that it was the sn in law of the Minister of Justice Lu Zhen.This man did not leave Huguang, but came from Shaanxi and was caught by Governor Wei's men on the ground in Guangyuan.
Xu Tao took out an envelope, and the paint seal on it was damaged and the letter was torn open.Mu Sheng received it and asked: Did Veda’s letter?
yes.Xu Tao said.
The letter reads the word "Lu Zhen, Minister of Justice.
It is said that Guo Zi, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, made contributions to the court, and now he is trapped by the King of Han. He asked to send officials to negotiate and pardon Qian Xun, the left chief of the Han Palace, and others.
The following signs include Lu Zhen’s name and seal.
The emperor's red pen approval: Approve the report.
Mu Sheng read it twice and placed the letter on the stone table, but did not respond for a long time.
Xu Tao finally couldn't help but remind him again: Zhang He was waiting outside the lobby of Dusi.
Lu Zhen's sn in law, taking a detour in Shaanxi... Mu Sheng frowned and thoughtful expression.
After hearing this, Xu Tao asked in a low voice: Is there something strange here?
Mu Sheng said: Of course it is strange!Lu Zhen has always been a clerk in the Eastern Palace. During the reign of Emperor Taizong, he, Zhang He, was forgiven by the prince when he saw him lose his manners. Then both of their son-in-law had been jailed for the prince.Although Guo Zi is an important figure, the court does not have to send another confidant to the enemy territory?
Xu Tao suddenly realized, gave a thumbs up and said: Marquis is tall! He then said in confusion, Zhang He came, what exactly was he going to do?
Mu Sheng said: How can I know?
Xu Tao said: Ask him to come in and ask.
Mu Sheng shook his head and said: Slowly!
Mu Sheng stood up from the stone bench, paced back and forth, and suddenly stood there again, turned around and said: Send him to Yunnan immediately!Together with this letter, he handed it to the King of Han.
Xu Tao was stunned for a moment, clasped his fists and said: The last general is in command!
Mu Sheng waved again and whispered: I tried to tell him to tell the inside story on the way.Tell him, if you don’t say it, you will have no chance.
Finally, I will understand.
As soon as Xu Tao left, Lu Liangwei commander Chen Zhen came in.
Chen Zhen was not wearing armor and was wearing a red official uniform. At first glance, he looked similar to the clothes worn by civil servants, but the difference was the patch on his chest.
The Ming Dynasty military officer was of high rank, even a guard commander was a third rank, while the civil servant in charge of a county was only a low-level official.
Chen Zhen came over with a file and presented it to Mu Sheng.Mu Sheng flipped it out casually and found that it was almost all confessions written in small characters on fly heads, so he asked: Tell me the result.
At the end, people were sent to interrogate the opera troupe and slaves of the Shu Palace that day, and interrogate relevant people.The assassin found out that day may have a great relationship with the Shu Prince’s Mansion!But there is no evidence, and I dare not interrogate the King of Shu easily for a while.
After hearing this, Mu Sheng said flatly: This case ends here!He gave the file to Xu Tao and asked him to send it to Kunming together.
...The cavalry escorted to the imperial envoys stayed in Longquan Yicheng that night.
They had to first arrive at Luzhou of the Sichuan Provincial Administration and then take the Usada Luzhou Road to Yunnan.
Along the way is an important post road in the three southwestern provinces. There are plenty of post horses, and it will take a group of people to ride horses to Kunming in no time.
The officials and servants at the post station had almost no change and they still received their salaries.
The Sichuan Provincial Administrator issued a report, telling everyone that officials at all levels only need to comply with the orders of the Provincial Administrator, which is in line with the laws of the Ming Dynasty.
Those who are planning their own affairs in their positions do not need to worry about the rest of their affairs; those who disobey the government orders shall be punished strictly in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty!
Therefore, the officials of the post stations of various prefectures, prefectures, counties, regardless of whether the emperor or the Han king was right, they did not directly obey the orders of the Zhu family and only followed the orders of the three departments.
Officials from Sichuan Sansi have been protected by Mu Sheng's army in just a few months and have made friends with Mu Sheng and others, and have a harmonious relationship.
In the evening of that day, Xu Tao asked his confidant to guard the guest room where Zhang He lived.After the sun set, he walked into Zhang He's room dressed in a blanket.
Zhang He is a young and handsome man with a fair face and good looks.
When Xu Tao saw Zhang He get up and bow, he politely bowed his fists and returned the greeting.
Xu Tao first spoke: This general is Xu Tao, the left deputy general of the Marquis of Xiping.During Hongwu, he followed the Qianning King to fight in various parts of Yunnan. He later served in Mu Mansion for many years and served as the general of Dali Mansion in the late Hongwu period.
When Zhang He heard this, he showed a sudden expression on his face and bowed: Zhang He is now the head of the Ministry of Revenue.
Xu Tao said: I will be ordered by the Queen of Xiping to send Master Zhang to Yunnan to meet the King of Han... He said this and wanted to speak but stopped, and temporarily changed his words. While we were resting at the post station, I would like to tell Master Zhang that your job will be decided by the King of Han.If you want to do your job well, don’t think about running away on the way.Do you understand?
Zhang He nodded and pondered.
After a long time, he spoke: General Xu, I have to report to the Queen of Xiping... about the murder of Prince Mu Bin of Xiping.When Mu Bin was assassinated, the officials in the court were responsible for not protecting them, but it was by no means what the court did!
The Queen of Xiping may not believe what she is following, but as long as you think carefully, you can distinguish right from wrong.After the King of Han escaped from the capital, the emperor wanted to grant Xiping Hou the Duke, and did not hesitate to dissuade Xiping Hou from a high position and generous salary. How could he kill Prince Mu Bin?After this incident happens, isn’t it clear who will benefit?
Xu Tao said cautiously: The Marquis of Xiping is loyal to the King of Han. Can you easily provoke it with your three-inch tongue?
You can't speak so badly.Zhang He frowned and said, where are you provoking?But it's true!The emperor returned the golden words and jade words to make a promise that as long as the Marquis of Xiping knows that he will return to his mistakes, he will definitely not blame the past and will still be granted the Marquis of Xiping as Duke.The Queen of Xiping was bewitched by the King of Han and made a mistake for a moment, which was understandable...
Xu Tao said coldly: Is the Queen of Xiping a person with two intentions?You don't have to say it.
After saying that, he left with his sleeves and as soon as he walked out of the room, he called his confidant at the door to follow him.Xu Tao immediately wrote a secret letter asking his confidant general to set off tomorrow morning and send the secret letter to Mu Sheng to the commander-in-chief.
……
Not long ago, the Guo family was confiscated, Guo Ming was arrested, and imprisoned in the Northern Fushi Department.
A servant in charge of Guo's mansion named Xu Shun fled and rushed to Guizhou.
The slave was seized by Liu Yingjun scout in Guizhou and escorted to Kunming City.
In early April, the Guo slaves arrived at the Han Prince's Mansion.At this time, Zhu Gaoxu's family had returned from Dali to Yunnan Prefecture City one after another.Zhu Gaoxu asked the slave to meet Princess Guo Wei.
The slave has no letters, but he knows Guo Wei.
He was covered in dust and was anxious to report: Tan Qing, commander of the Jinyiwei, Xue Yan, minister of Dali Temple, and Geng Tong, the chief of the Jinyiwei, brought the Jinyiwei armored soldiers to the mansion to search the house and arrested the master!A few days later, three judicial convictions were convicted, saying that our master colluded with the enemy of the King of Han and had secretly ordered the thousand-household guards of Guizhou to release the King of Han to the city!The court convicted the master of death and was executed after autumn!The Guo family will be exiled to Liaodong...
Guo Wei's face was pale, her eyes were lost, and her body was not very stable.Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly held her shoulders and stroked her back. Guo Wei's hand grabbed Zhu Gaoxu's arm with all his strength.
The slave Xu Shun continued: Most of the masters ask the villain to take charge of the person they meet and do. This is an unjust case!
However, there have been signs since last year... At that time, the second prince (Zhan's) suffered from convulsions. A alchemist happened to offer a silver ring snake, saying that snake gallbladder can cure convulsions in children. Several doctors also recognized this prescription, so the owner sent the medicinal wine into the palace.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Taizong died soon after!
The silver ring snake itself is highly venomous. The wife was worried that it was inappropriate and once advised her to escape and flee to Yunnan.The master never obeyed, but unexpectedly suffered such a disaster!
Where is my sister?Guo Wei asked in a trembling voice.
Xu Shun lowered his head and said: The villain was in a hurry to leave and could not find out about the situation of Concubine Guo.
Why is my uncle so cruel!My sister was wholeheartedly treating him, but he treated the Guo family like this... Guo Wei's tears fell from her face, her voice choked, and she almost burst into tears.
Zhu Gaoxu said: Princess, don’t be anxious. If you are still alive, there is still room for recovery.
Guo Wei said with tears in her eyes: But the three judicial officials have been convicted and they are going to be executed.
If you are beheaded after autumn, you must be drawn by the emperor's red pen, and the elder brother will not be able to draw it.Zhu Gaoxu said kindly, your father has not colluded with me, I can definitely confirm this matter!If my elder brother is just suspicious of him, the best way is to secretly monitor him without rushing to frame him.
Zhu Gaoxu continued: As for the news brought by Xu Shun, the eldest brother punished the Guo family, probably because of the silver ring snake gallbladder medicinal wine; then we can guess that the death of the late emperor was unknown, and perhaps he was poisoned.The eldest brother also wants to find out the truth. He will not kill the suspect and lose the clues. It is your father.
Is this really the case?Guo Wei looked at Zhu Gaoxu and said hurriedly, "My father will never do that kind of thing, and her sister is not that cruel person!"The Guo family must have been wronged!
Zhu Gaoxu gently patted Guo Wei's back and said, "I believe in the princess, and your father and sister."The truth will be found out in the future and the Guo family will be cleared.
He then waved his hand and said: Go down, ask Wang Gui to settle your place and rest first.
Xu Shun bowed: The villain took his leave.
After the outsider left, Zhu Gaoxu hugged Guo Wei again and comforted her with kind words.
Is the death of the late emperor poisoned? Is it related to the Guo family?Zhu Gaoxu didn't know at all.The Minister of Revenue Guo Zi was not allowed to kill him. Zhu Gaoxu was busy with war before and had no time to ask about it.
Zhu Gaoxu said casually, just to comfort Guo Wei.Guo Ming has already committed a serious crime of colluding with enemies. He is not afraid of biting if there are too many lice. If Zhu Gaoxu said, Guo Ming will really not die for a while.
Deep in the shade of the tree, incense lingers.Hou Musheng of Xiping was sitting on a cushion on a stone bench, looking at the chessboard on the stone table in front of him.Opposite the stone table, sitting was a young lady with a slightly bulging belly.
