My Brother-in-law is the Prince Chapter 163

  Chapter 163 Zhang An Shizhi Captures the Rebel Party

   the next day.

  Zhang Anshi went to the prison and checked the files.

  The people of Jinyiwei did not dare to embarrass this Marquis of Annan, and even provided him with all conveniences.

   After transcribing a dossier, Zhang Anshi immediately returned to Qixia.

  Jinyi Weili is known for his fierce reputation.

   And they have always been unfriendly to Donggong.

  On the one hand, Jinyiwei is directly under the royal family, and there may be reasons for avoiding suspicion.

  On the other hand, I am afraid that Ji Gang is suspected of supporting the King of Han.

   It's just his kind of support, which is only to the point, and it doesn't get involved too deeply.

   But it also shows Ji Gang's cunning.

  Zhang Anshi didn't believe that Ji Gang supported Zhu Gaoxu simply because he had a good relationship with Zhu Gaoxu.

   Zhu Gaoxu's great intelligence is actually the same as his brother-in-law. To some extent, he is a sacrificial offering to careerists like Xie Jin and Ji Gang.

  Their so-called support was nothing more than a bet. When they ascended to the big position, they transformed themselves and became heroes from the dragon.

  Ji Gang's thinking direction is different from Xie Jin's. Xie Jin believes that the prince is justified in terms of etiquette and law.

But a Jinyiwei like Ji Gang knows that on the one hand, the crown prince would not like someone like him; on the other hand, he also thinks that Zhu Gaoxu has high prestige in the army, and he controls the Jinyiwei. The general of the Han Dynasty is partly the Fusi of Beizhen who is in charge of spying, and the other part is the Fusi of Nanzhen who is in charge of the prison.

I'm afraid that Ji Gang's idea is that once Zhu Di's health is in trouble, he can cooperate with Zhu Gaoxu inside and outside, relying on Zhu Gaoxu's prestige to control the imperial army, while the general of the Han Dynasty controls the palace, and the Beizhen Fusi is in charge of spying, and finally there will be a game of seizing the door change.

   It can be said that in Zhang Anshi's mind, Zhu Gaoxu is nothing, but Ji Gang is the real threat to his brother-in-law.

Moreover, this person is very scheming and has always been hidden behind the scenes. If it weren't for the fact that Zhu Di lived for more than 20 years in history and cleared the obstacles for his brother-in-law before he became the throne, I'm afraid...Ji Gang is still a person. There is a real possibility of bad things.

  Facing such a person... the only thing Zhang Anshi wants to do is to shake his trust in front of Zhu Di.

  He has to find the so-called rebellious party before Ji Gang.

  Zhang Anshi read a few files, then wrote down a few notes with confidence, and then found Zhu Jin, and handed the note to him: "Tell me, I want to check these things, so hurry up."

  Zhu Jin didn't dare to neglect, got the note, and went to work in a hurry.

   Immediately, Zhang Anshi went to the East Palace. When it was dark, Zhu Gaochi returned to the palace from the household department. Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Brother-in-law, have you heard about the rebellion?"

  Zhu Gaochi was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head.

  Zhang Anshi said: "Brother-in-law is the crown prince, so I don't know about such an important matter, hey, it seems that someone is hiding it from brother-in-law."

  Zhu Gaochi sat down, took a sip of tea with his expression unchanged, and said calmly: "I am the prince, so I don't necessarily know everything."

  Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said: "That's what I said, I'm just worried that what will be found out will eventually implicate my brother-in-law."

  Zhu Gaochi said bluntly: "Who would dare to do this?"

  Zhang Anshi said seriously: "That's not good. Some people... are not loved by brother-in-law. If they know that they will not be liked by brother-in-law in the future, they will inevitably jump over the wall. But whenever there is an opportunity, they will jump up and bite."

Zhu Gaochi didn't care about it, he smiled and said: "You, you just worry too much. Naturally, I also know that you love me, but there are some things. If you worry about everything, it won't work. Ben The palace is still worried about you, at this age, if you are not married yet, Duke Wei will be in a hurry."

  Zhang Anshi resentfully said: "I will grow for another two years."

  Development…

  Zhu Gaochi was taken aback for a moment, and he probably understood the meaning: "It's weird, you don't get close to women... That's also very good."

Zhang Anshi was in a hurry: "Brother-in-law, you can't say that. At our Zhang family, the maid that my sister picked for me was old and ugly, and she could be my mother. In a place like a brothel, I'm afraid of flowers and willows. It's not easy."

  Zhu Gaochi smiled slightly, with a look of understanding, and whispered: "When you marry a girl from the Xu family and pass through the door..."

   Having reached this point, his voice was lowered: "I'll be the master, and I will give you some good handmaidens."

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

   This is actually nothing to listen to.

  The crux of the problem is that my brother-in-law talked to me about this...

  Although this is nothing in this era.

   But Zhang Anshi always felt weird, so he said: "Brother-in-law, I'm not in good health, don't get close to women, you know?"

  Zhu Gaochi coughed: "Don't talk nonsense!"

  Zhang Anshi thought to himself, I don't know you yet...

  Zhang Anshi sighed, and said: "Hey, it's too difficult for me. I have to worry about the rebellious party here, and I have to worry about my brother-in-law and my nephew over there."

Zhu Gaochi took another sip of tea, and then said: "This matter of disrupting the party is indeed not a trivial matter. It's just that the emperor asked Ji Gang to deal with it. If you exceed your authority, I'm afraid he will be dissatisfied. This person... is difficult to deal with, so you have to be careful. "

Zhang Anshi said: "It's because this person is difficult to deal with, that's why I'm worried. So you must get ahead of him! You wait, within ten days, I will have a prospect on my side, and the capable people around me, but they can't help it!" too much."

  Zhu Gaochi just smiled wryly, shaking his head constantly and said: "Hey... you are really..."

  Zhang Anshi bid farewell and went back.

   Along the way, thinking that Zhu Gaochi was not alert to this, Zhang Anshi was a little worried.

   Zhu Gaoxu was defeated early and completely withdrew from the competition for the reserve position. Ji Gang must be uneasy now. Ji Gang at this time is extremely dangerous.

For any powerful minister, especially someone like Ji Gang, since it has been confirmed that the prince will never trust him, he will definitely think about arranging a way out for himself. This person is a poisonous snake, and if he is not careful, he will be killed. take a bite.

   Within a few days.

  The whole capital panicked.

  Jin Yi Wei Ti rides around.

   Immediately, a large number of people were sent to prison.

  These people include scholars, merchants, and none of them have any accidents... Almost none of them came out.

   While people were wondering, the memorials were sent to Zhu Di's desk one by one.

  Zhu Di looked at the report and couldn't help being furious: "Are so many people... related to these chaotic parties?"

  Yi Shiha just stood with his body hooked, glanced at the report on the imperial case, and didn't say a word.

   "If you don't check, you won't know. After this investigation, you will find out that it is not a trivial matter." Zhu Di's face became more and more angry: "Look at it."

   "Yes." Yi Shiha stepped forward cautiously, took the memorial, and only glanced at it.

  The vast majority of the so-called rebellious parties here... If they are guilty, they are more or less a little bit, some have scolded the emperor behind their backs, and some have cherished Beiyuan.

   There are quite a few more... When the book was written and discussed, it involved the Northern Yuan Dynasty and was praised.

  Yi Shiha said: "Your Majesty...these people...servants think..."

   "You go ahead." Zhu Di said lightly.

  Yi Shiha said: "These people's crimes may be big or small, but let's talk about it. If you say that they are a rebellious party with ulterior motives, this servant thinks it is a bit too much."

  Zhu Di narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean...Ji Gang framed it?"

   "I don't dare to say anything." Yi Shiha denied it flatly: "It's just... these people alone are not enough to believe. If it is true as Chen Ji explained, these chaotic parties must be serious..."

  Zhu Di stood up, his eyes flashed unfathomable, and he said: "I understand what you mean, these people... are not enough to make big things, there must be more important people behind them."

  Yi Shiha smiled and said: "Yes, this servant thinks so."

  Zhu Di pondered for a moment, and said: "Then urge Ji Gang, let him not use these small fish and shrimps to fool me."

After a pause, Zhu Di said again: "These people...check it again, I see...not many of them are real rebellious parties. Someone wrote an article saying that Kublai Khan is a holy king, and said that this person has ulterior motives , What does Ji Gang want to do? Is this perfunctory? Let him let people go, this kind of rotten man is just stupid, such a stupid person, should he be treated as a rebellious party?"

  Yi Shiha nodded: "Why don't you check everything with the Supervisor of Rites?"

  Zhu Di nodded: "That's it."

  Yi Shi heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried back to the Prison of Rites to summon other eunuchs.

   Just started to explain things, but at this moment, a **** came in a hurry and said anxiously: "Grand Duke, it's terrible. It's terrible."

  Yi Shiha looked up, but it was Liu Yongcheng,

   This Liu Yongcheng is not an ordinary person. Although he is an eunuch, he is skilled in bowing horses. Now he is the **** of the Royal Horse Supervisor.

  Yi Shiha frowned and said, "What happened?"

   Liu Yongcheng said: "Cui Yihong, the admiral and **** of the Warrior Camp, got a driving sticker, but was taken down by Jin Yiwei."

  Yi Shiha heard it, his expression changed immediately, he looked at Liu Yongcheng with a dark look: "Are you sure? They dare to take people from the palace?"

   This Warriors Battalion is directly under the Imperial Horse Supervisor. It has always been controlled by the eunuchs and is completely independent of the Five Armies Commander's Mansion.

  The eunuchs who can admiral the warrior battalion have always been loyal and reliable, but now they are suddenly captured, which is obviously beyond the imagination of the big eunuchs in the palace like Yi Shiha and Liu Yongcheng.

   Although Cui Yihong's little **** is nothing, he is said to be the admiral of the warrior battalion, but in fact he is just a supervising army, but his position is very important.

   "In what name did you take people?"

"It's in the name of the Qin case, but I didn't embarrass him. I just sent a driving ticket and asked him to go to the prison to drink tea. Cui Yihong was outside the palace. I don't know what happened. Then be honest and submit.”

  Yi Shiha's eyes became more and more intense, and he smiled: "Okay, very good. This Ji Gang is really good at tricks, and our family admires him."

  Liu Yongcheng is good at bowing horses, but his scheming is far inferior to Yishuha. At this time, he was confused, so he asked in puzzlement, "What does Grand Duke mean?"

Yi Shiha said indifferently: "Ji Gang...is close to the King of Han in the past, and His Majesty knows this very well, but His Majesty still needs to rely on him. He has been a detective for so many years, and His Majesty cannot easily dismiss him. "

After a pause, Yi Shiha continued: "So in the palace, our side intends... to push His Majesty to set up a yamen in the palace that can control Jinyiwei. This matter... We have mentioned it to His Majesty several times, and His Majesty also has this intention , after all... His Majesty trusts the people in our palace the most."

   Liu Yongcheng said: "We don't know these things."

  He felt a little blaming.

Yi Shiha comforted him and said: "This kind of thing is not your strong point, your strong point is marching and deploying formations, I told you, you don't have much interest, we discussed it with Hou Xian and others. But now we Two things are certain."

   "Two things?"

  Yi Shiha calmly said: "One of them is that Ji Gang is in the palace, and he also has his eyes and ears, and it may be the people around us, or even the people around His Majesty."

  Paused, he continued: "The second thing is that Ji Gang will not be reconciled... The Jinyiwei that has been built so hard, we have more people at the top to control it. He finally took advantage of this case and started to fight back."

   "Counterattack?" Liu Yongcheng asked in surprise, "What did he counterattack?"

  Yi Shiha could only smile bitterly. To be honest, the **** has achieved Liu Yongcheng's level, and he can still gain His Majesty's trust. Entrusting him to be in charge of the Yuma Supervisor can be regarded as the smoke of Liu Yongcheng's ancestral grave.

  Yi Shiha said: "We have a new yamen in the inner court to control Jinyiwei, what is the only excuse?"

   Liu Yongcheng said: "Naturally, His Majesty trusts us. We followed His Majesty when we were in trouble. Over the years, we have naturally been diligent and loyal."

Yi Shiha then said: "That's right, Ji Gang has wives and concubines, sons and daughters, and can't serve His Majesty in the palace at any time, but we are different, we have nothing, the only one we can rely on is the Emperor." .To be more precise, the emperor is our king and our father and mother. Apart from His Majesty, what else can we rely on? If Your Majesty wants to build a new Yamen, it must be because of our loyalty and reliability."

Yi Shiha continued to explain to Liu Yongcheng patiently: "As for Ji Gang, if he wants to fight back against us and make our hopes come to naught, it is very simple, as long as... find a rebellious party among us, and prove that even us, the people around His Majesty If they are not reliable, then the construction of a new government office may not be possible."

Liu Yongcheng suddenly realized, and immediately said angrily: "It turns out that Cui Yihong from the Warriors Camp is not a rebellious party, but Ji Gang, a **** who wants to take this opportunity to ruin our reputation. There is no reason for this. Let's go to see His Majesty and sue him sternly." Ji Gang is like this."

  Yi Shiha shook his head, smiled bitterly and said, "I can't go."

   Liu Yongcheng said in surprise: "Why?"

Yishi moved: "I can't go now. You know the tactics of Jinyiwei. Since Cui Yihong was chosen, it must be that Cui Yihong also has some irregularities. Finding a mistake is enough to prove the crime. And we If you file a complaint at this time, it will become a cover-up."

   "Should Ji Gang be allowed to act recklessly like this?"

  Yi Shiha looked extraordinarily calm: "At this time, let's not panic, otherwise, nothing can be done."

  Speaking, he sat down, took a sip of tea, and pondered again: "Think about it carefully, this guy Cui Yihong...what's wrong with him on weekdays?"

   "This... he... he likes to drink, and... he is greedy for money..."

  Yi Shiha's face turned cold, he pointed at Liu Yongcheng and said, "You, you, such a person, you put him in the warrior camp?"

   "We...we..." Liu Yongcheng wanted to explain something, but finally said dejectedly: "He is our godson."

  Yi Shiha: "..."

  In the imperial prison.

   Howled again and again.

  Ji Gang held the teacup, smiled, and looked at his masterpiece in front of him.

   Whenever the naked **** howled, Ji Gang felt inexplicably excited.

  He had to drink tea non-stop to extinguish the fire in his heart.

  Several Jinyiwei school captains, holding small pliers, continued to tear off the flesh of the **** bit by bit.

  The **** was already dripping with blood. He screamed, as if he had lost his mind, and murmured: "It's not me, it's not me..."

At this moment, Ji Gang stood up and said: "It's not you, why did you hide so much gold and silver? You are a servant in the palace, and your monthly salary is quite certain. And your brother, who is here Out of the public, you have such close contact with the generals of the Warrior Battalion on weekdays, what is going on?"

"Once, you drank with someone, but you told them... this warrior camp belongs to you, Cui, and you teach them what to do, and they will do what you want. These things... are true. Besides... your brother's house, search Where did he get these items from the palace of the Yuan Dynasty?"

He spoke slowly, looking at the **** in front of him with a half-smile: "Do you think... at this time, someone will come to rescue you? Heh... don't be delusional. Since I dare to invite you, I can make sure you go out sideways! Oh , besides you, there are also your brothers and your nephews. I also heard that before you entered the palace, when you were still young, there was a woman you had a good relationship with. Although she is married now, you But he was nice to her…”

  Ji Gang looked at Cui Yihong calmly and said: "This woman...don't worry, Wei Zhong and I will take care of her."

  Cui Yihong screamed: "Ji Gang, you will die badly."

Ji Gang ignored his scolding, but said word by word: "Hey, your little nephew is only four years old. What a pity at such an age. Don't you have the heart to let him suffer like you? You can't explain it clearly, if you don't explain it, how can I report to His Majesty? Come on, tell me, at least a whole body can be left behind."

  Cui Yihong howled, then gritted his teeth and said: "My godfather will never let you go."

  Ji Gang didn't have the slightest expression on his face: "Your godfather is too stupid. In this palace, the only capable... **** is not your godfather. My patience has reached its limit, and I will ask you again..."

   Cui Yihong gritted her teeth and said, "You kill us, kill us."

  Ji Gang didn't say anything, but hurried out.

   Out of the torture chamber.

  Ji Gang had a gloomy face, and Liu Xiang, the commander of Jin Yiwei, came in a hurry, and said in a low voice: "If you take this Cui Yihong, will those eggless people in the palace..."

"We are handling the Qin case, what are we afraid of?" Ji Gang still didn't have much emotion on his face, but said in a leisurely tone: "Anyone who is involved in the Qin case, don't even think about going out. After all, this is just a palace official." It's nothing more than slaves."

After a pause, Ji Gang took a deep look at Liu Xiang, and then said: "At the beginning when Your Majesty rebuilt the Jinyiwei, it was our brothers who pulled the Jinyiwei up with one hand, but those eggless guys used it in front of His Majesty. Tripper, I want to lie on top of you and me and be the overlord!"

"Hey... they think well, but it's a pity... I, Ji Gang, am not a vegetarian either! Up and down, we are all brothers of our own family. We eat meat together, drink together, and live a good life together. If those eunuchs come , how about yours?"

  Liu Xiang listened, and nodded fiercely: "I know you are humble. If you don't want to kill these dogs, don't we have done it in vain all these years."

Ji Gang didn't say anything else, but said: "Today, I want to make a confession, and the confession must be detailed. Not only Cui Yihong has to plead guilty, but also his brother, and other military officers involved! Your Majesty is not a fool, A general confession is not perfunctory."

   Liu Xiang cheered up: "Don't worry, brother, we have done everything properly for so many years."

   Ji Gang nodded, and then walked away.

  The Jinyiwei at this time is different from the Jinyiwei in other periods of the Ming Dynasty.

  After Zhu Di entered Beijing, in order to suppress the remnants of Jianwen, he instructed Ji Gang and others to rebuild the Jinyiwei. It can be said that this Jinyiwei was almost built by Ji Gang. All the people up and down were single-handedly selected by him. These people share a solidarity with him. The entire Jinyiwei is almost a piece of iron.

   Sure enough, it was the next day.

  Ji Gang enters the palace.

  Go to the outside of Wulou.

  Yi Shiha saw Ji Gang and smiled slightly.

  Ji Gang also stepped forward with a smile, clasped his fists and saluted: "Grand Duke, how is Your Majesty today... how is he feeling?"

   "It's okay." Yi Shiha said affectionately: "Commander Ji, you have really worked hard these few days."

"Hard?"

  Yi Shiha said: "Seeing your tired face, I'm afraid you'll be devastated by the Qin case."

   "My grandpa is concerned." Ji Gang said: "It's the responsibility, sometimes it really needs to be taken care of, but there is no way."

  Yi Shiha patted him on the shoulder: "It's not easy, it's not easy! Go see Your Majesty, Your Majesty misses you."

  The two looked at each other and smiled, like old friends for many years, they entered the Wulou hand in hand.

  Zhu Di took the high seat, but looked at Ji Gang with a straight face: "How is it?"

After Ji Gang saluted, he said: "Your Majesty... I know I was wrong. Although the people who were arrested a few days ago were suspected, after all...many of them were innocent. I have already let them go. How many people are left behind?" This one, I really can't clear up the suspicion...Humble and worried about letting the tiger go back to the mountain...Boldly...stayed."

  Zhu Di nodded lightly: "Do you have any new eyebrows?"

   "Yes." Ji Gang stepped forward, took out a confession, and then handed it over to Yi Shiha.

  Yi Shiha took the confession and carefully sent it to Zhu Di's imperial case.

  Zhu Di took it, opened it, looked down, and his face moved slightly: "Cui Yihong, the **** of the Yumajian?"

  Ji Gangdao: "The ironclad evidence is like a mountain, humble... dare not ignore it, if your majesty thinks there is something wrong with being humble..."

  Zhu Di waved his hand and looked carefully.

  This confession is full of tens of thousands of words, including Cui Yihong's confession, and his brother Cui Sanxi's confession.

   In addition, there were several military attaches from the Warrior Battalion, and even searched and confiscated the things in Cui Sanxi's home.

  Zhu Di looked at the pictures one by one, and looked at the confessions one by one.

   It seemed a little unbelievable, so after comparing it again, he put down the confession, looked up at Ji Gang, and said, "Why are the eunuchs in the palace related to Bei Yuan?"

   "Your Majesty, someone dragged him into the water, and his brother Cui Sanxi..."

  Zhu Di frowned: "I have already read the report, what I mean is... only this pair of brothers, is there no one else?"

   This seems to be right in Ji Gang's arms: "The minister is still investigating thoroughly, but these people are acting in a very treacherous way. They have exhausted all their efforts to find Cui Yihong in a humble way."

  Zhu Di snorted coldly: "Warrior camp...huh, this is the Warrior camp, all the Warrior camps look like this, so it's not bad!"

  Ji Gang hurriedly knelt down on the ground, and said with sincerity and fear: "I am humble, I am the commander of the Jinyiwei, and I can't detect it in advance, so that the thief appeared under His Majesty's nose, I am humble... I will die."

  Yi Shiha looked at everything in front of him coldly, at this moment... he had to admire Ji Gang.

  Ji Gang's fear in front of Zhu Di is precisely the root of His Majesty's trust in Ji Gang.

Your Majesty, this person... has always been self-confident. He is confident that a person like Ji Gang... is just an ant in front of him. Just a slight frown can scare Ji Gang to pieces. It is precisely because of this self-confidence that Zhu Di feels that Ji Gang Never dare to deceive yourself.

  Ji Gang cleverly grasped His Majesty's psychology and used it as a cover. It can be said that he has understood His Majesty's mind.

  Zhu Di said lightly: "A thorough investigation!"

   "Here."

   Qixia fired a cannon.

   Soon, the five congregations in the capital gathered.

  Of course, there is still one yuan in Annan, so I can't come.

Zhang Anshi was triumphant at this time, and said happily: "Brothers, today brother... After a lot of hard work, he finally caught a chaotic party, and brought everyone with him... Go with big brother, listen to big brother's orders, and must protect big brother …No, that rebellious party must not be allowed to escape.”

  Zhu Yong: "..."

  Zhang Fu: "..."

  Qiu Song's eyes lit up, and he patted his belly proudly.

   Half an hour later.

  Military Department...

  Chen Wenjun, the head of the Ministry of War, came off duty, just as he was about to get into a sedan chair.

  Suddenly, someone shouted from behind: "Hold him."

   As soon as he gave an order, he saw two figures approaching from the left and right.

   Immediately afterwards, he began to punch and kick Chen Wenjun.

   At this time, just off duty, many ministers of the Ministry of War came out of the hall.

   Then, they saw an incredible scene.

  Wearing a winged hat and official robes, his colleague Chen Wenjun was pressed to the ground, beaten for a while, and howled like a pig.

  Someone was furious: "He Fangxiao is young, dare to commit murder here."

Zhang Anshi came out quickly with ten or eight people who protected him, and said angrily: "Catch the chaos, catch the chaos, I'm very sorry, I disturbed you all, don't be offended, I must inform you in advance next time, so as not to disturb you, Definitely next time…”

   In the astonishment of everyone.

Zhang Anshi had already rushed forward, grabbed Chen Wenjun, who was beaten up on the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face, and shouted: "Fuck you, you bastard, I finally found you, I, Zhang Anshi, obey the law, and you **** dare to plot rebellion!" !"
