Chapter 45 Cui Yuan is attacked Although Dou Jialan was still in the Jinyiwei, everyone knew that this beauty had become Jiang Qingzhi's woman since she walked out of that gate. The emperor’s reward cannot be refused. Wang San is a gangster who cheats and deceives people in Beijing. He doesn't commit any major crimes, but he always commits minor ones. After being arrested and imprisoned many times, Wang San feels that this road is getting more and more difficult. At this moment, Dou Jialan appeared before him. From then on, Wang San became the spy of Jinyiwei. At this moment, Wang San was squatting outside the city gate, watching the merchants coming in and out. He stared at a dusty businessman and stepped forward to greet him. "Sir, do you need a guide? I'm not bragging, I know Beijing from top to bottom, inside and out, better than my wife. Not much, fifty cents a day..." The businessman hesitated. Fifty coins, no more, no less. Having a guide can save a lot of trouble.
The businessman nodded. At this time, someone behind said: "Change someone." Who the hell is ruining my business? Wang San was furious. He turned around and said with a smile, "Hey! Isn't this... Madam Dou?" The businessman said dissatisfiedly: "You woman, you are so rude." Wang San turned around, his face stern, "Get lost!" The businessman, not realizing that he had fallen into the hands of a swindler, walked away cursing. Wang San walked over with a smile, "Madam Dou hasn't come to see me for a long time, and I thought the Jinyiwei had forgotten a nobody like me. Is this... something wrong?" Dou Jialan was wearing plain clothes. "Do you know Wang Xintian, the director of the Ministry of Industry?" "Wang Xintian? Of course I know." Wang San is a geomantic genius. If he was not unwilling to endure hardships, why would he need to cheat and deceive to support his wife and children? "Check him!" Dou Jialan threw a dime over. Wang San took it and said, "Oh! In the past, we gave copper coins. Is Madam Dou rich now?" "If you do it well, there will be a reward. If you don't do it well..." Dou Jialan said coldly. "Don't worry, ma'am." Wang San put away the silver coins and said, "I'll give you a letter in five days." "No, at the latest, before noon tomorrow." Dou Jialan saw Wang San's embarrassed expression, "Money is not a problem." "No problem!" Wang San stepped closer with a playful smile, "I heard that Madam Dou is now from a powerful family?" “That’s not the rich and powerful.” "what is that?" "That's family."
Dou Jialan returned home to report. "That Wang San may seem playful, but he is actually a steady and reliable person." "it is good." King Jing is here. "Uncle, I was rude last time." Zhu Zaizhen apologized sincerely and gave him a gift. It turned out to be a jade carving of a monkey. "Why monkeys?" Jiang Qingzhi asked, feeling that this kid's hobby was unique. "My father likes to talk about monkeys the most." King Jing said. Isn't Daoye a cat lover? Jiang Qingzhi smiled. "By the way, I heard that someone is planning to impeach my uncle." King Jing presented the most sincere gift of apology. "It's as expected." Jiang Qingzhi said. "I feel like there is a net coming towards my cousin. If my cousin nods, I will go to the palace to ask to see my mother and ask her to speak up for my cousin with my father." After King Jing finished speaking, he found that his cousin was staring at him unkindly, and couldn't help but curious, "Does my cousin think it's inappropriate?" "Okay. But it's not necessary." Was this idea from Concubine Lu Jing or Prince Jing? Jiang Qingzhi was thinking. If he nodded, Concubine Lu would speak to Emperor Jiajing, and he would be tied to Prince Jing from then on. …… "Chang Wei Bo has no base in the capital. If I and the fourth brother can provide support, he will have no worries." Concubine Lu looked at her nails that had just been painted with cardamom and asked Chen Yan, "Do you think he would agree?" Chen Yan said: "Anyone would agree to this." Concubine Lu Jing smiled, "Your Majesty mentioned Chang Wei Bo to me again yesterday, saying that he...knows the overall situation and the general situation. To be honest, Your Majesty has never praised the Fourth Master like this." Chen Yan smiled and said, "It shows that the queen has a keen eye for talent." "What a pity! If we had won them over earlier, this wouldn't have happened." Concubine Lu Jing was annoyed when she thought about Prince Yu taking the lead. "The fourth prince is a good person, but he is arrogant and looks down on others." …… King Jing didn't notice the complicated look in Jiang Qingzhi's eyes, and was a little disappointed, so he said goodbye later. "Dragon's son and grandson!" Jiang Qingzhi sighed as he watched him leave. "If anything goes wrong with the Crown Prince, King Jing may turn the tables." Fu Cheng said cautiously. "He can't turn the tables." Jiang Qingzhi said confidently.
"Prince Jing is respectful to the wise and humble, studious, and smart..." Fu Cheng felt that his son looked down on King Jing. "I have never looked down upon a prince, but King Jing is not broad-minded enough." Jiang Qingzhi stretched and said, "Stone." "exist." "Come out with me." Sun Chonglou has traveled around the capital several times recently. He knows where there are delicious foods and lively places. He points and talks along the way, wishing he could drag his young master out to eat, drink and have fun. Jiang Qingzhi and he walked all the way to a dilapidated house in the south of the city. "I'll knock on the door in front, and you go to the back to block it." Sun Chonglou looked at the young master's small body with concern. "Go quickly!" Jiang Qingzhi knocked on the door after he guessed that Sun Chonglou had arrived. Knock knock knock! Knock knock knock! The knocks on the door became more rapid. A man ran back in panic with his bag. He opened the back door, turned around and spat at the front, "Fuck you, you want to catch me? In my next life... ugh!" A long knife suddenly appeared on his neck. "The young master is indeed very calculating." Sun Chonglou forced the man to go in, until he reached the front, and said, "Open the door." The man opened the door, Jiang Qingzhi came in and closed the door. "Sun Lei?" The man's eyes darted around, "Sir, what are you doing..." "Do you know Wang Xintian, the director of the Ministry of Industry?" The man's legs went limp. "I don't know anything... I won't know even if I'm beaten to death." "Stone." "Hey!" "Shut his mouth." Jiang Qingzhi grinned and said, "I haven't personally tortured for more than half a year. I hope my hands are not rusty." When did the young master ever use torture? Sun Chonglou thought about it and realized that he really hadn't. Jiang Qingzhi took out the small knife that was a reward from the big tripod and slowly stabbed it into the man's fingernail...
"Woooooooo..." The knife continued to produce steady output. The man's face turned red, the blood vessels in his neck swelled, and his body bounced around... "Woo woo woo!" The man nodded vigorously, indicating that he was willing to confess. Jiang Qingzhi changed his finger and continued. Only after the right hand had done all the moves did Sun Chonglou take out the cloth that was used to gag his mouth. "I said!" Sun Lei collapsed. Jiang Qingzhi took notes and finally asked Sun Lei to sign and seal the document. "There is one thing I don't understand." Sun Lei looked at his right hand and asked in agony, "I'm willing to confess, why do you still torture me?" Jiang Qingzhi put away the confession and said, "Nothing else, I just wanted to practice." …… On the morning of the next day, Dou Jialan went out to get news. Jiang Qingzhi is reading a book. The Taoist priest gave him some Taoist books and asked him to study them carefully when he had nothing to do. "I don't have this talent!" Jiang Qingzhi lay on the recliner, covering his face with the book, and fell asleep in a short while. "Shitou, you should stay calm when facing big things. You should learn from the young master." Fucheng said with a look of regret. "Master, how many young masters are there in this world?" Sun Chonglou asked. Fucheng: “…” In Sun Chonglou's eyes, his young master is a genius that appears only once every five hundred years. "The unrivaled young master for five hundred years." Sun Chonglou said proudly. …… "It's almost time." Lu Bing looked at the sun. Zhu Hao said, "Don't worry, Commander. Prince Consort Cui is more anxious than us." Lu Bing said quietly, "Xia Yan will have many troubles in the future. The sooner Jiang Qingzhi is humiliated, the less obstacles he will have when he takes action against Xia Yan. Do you understand?" Zhu Hao said awkwardly, "Yes. But... Commander, I am ignorant and feel that you and Jiang Qingzhi are just not compatible." "Yes, it's innate." A fierce look flashed in Lu Bing's eyes.
The Jiajing Emperor's mind was not broad enough, and his favor was limited. Since Jiang Qingzhi came to the capital, Lu Bing felt that the Jiajing Emperor's attitude towards him seemed a little cold. He rose to power by virtue of his status as the emperor's foster brother and his merit in saving the emperor. He was also the emperor's lackey, and his honor and disgrace depended entirely on the will of Emperor Jiajing. It can be said that his life and death depended on the thought of Emperor Jiajing. Therefore, favor and trust are the foundation of his survival. But now Jiang Qingzhi suddenly appeared and wielded a hoe to dig up his roots. It’s tolerable, it’s unbearable! "Go and tell Cui Yuan." Lu Bing said slowly, "Don't tolerate it." …… "I don't need him to teach me." Cui Yuan changed his clothes and prepared to enter the palace. "The commander's intention is that Jiang Qingzhi must not be allowed to become powerful." "I'll show him what means are!" Cui Yuan sneered. In his eyes, Lu Bing was just a treacherous minister who relied on breast milk to rise to power. He then went to see Emperor Jiajing. Entering the palace smoothly. Cui Yuan had been in and out of Xiyuan countless times, and the novelty had long since worn off. The West Garden is different from the palace, with more trees. Cui Yuan walked slowly along the way, thinking about how to flatter Jiang Qing without letting Emperor Jiajing know. How to start? ——Your Majesty, I think that although Chang Wei Bo is very talented, he lacks experience. If he can go to the local area to gain some experience, he will sooner or later become your Majesty's right-hand man. In this way, we can retreat in order to advance. Cui Yuan smiled and thought that once Jiang Qingzhi arrived at the place, he would urge Lu Bing to spread the news that Jiang Qingzhi was on the side of the military. The local literati and gentry must be furious. Without their support, what political achievements would Jiang Qingzhi bring back to Beijing? Wonderful! Cui Yuan coughed dryly. "Snapped!" "Ow!" Cui Yuan covered his cheek and howled miserably. The eunuch who led the way turned around and saw bright red blood slowly flowing down from between Cui Yuan's fingers as he covered his face.
"who is it?" The eunuch's eyes turned. The guards rushed over upon hearing the news and searched everywhere. "It's a slingshot!" What hurt Cui Yuan were the stones, which were scattered all over the ground. "It must be Jiang Qingzhi!" Cui Yuan screamed. The guards rolled their eyes and wondered if Long Wilbur could actually fly into the palace. …… The short figure ran in the alley until he reached the back of a side hall, then he sat down to catch his breath. "Hey hey hey!" Zhu Zaigui looked at the slingshot in his hand, which was the gift his cousin gave him last time. Today, he used this gift to strike Cui Yuan a blow. "Do you think no one has discovered you?" Behind me, a sarcastic voice came, "You are stupid." Zhu Zaiyi turned around suddenly, "Old Four." King Jing folded his arms across his chest, leaned against the wooden pillar, and said lazily, "Don't worry, I'm alone." "Then why don't you shout?" Zhu Zaigui was puzzled. "If you do this, Cui Yuan will definitely not give up, and I will no longer be a threat to you." "If I wanted to fight for that position, I wouldn't use such a despicable method." King Jing said proudly, and then said disdainfully: "Besides, you are stupid. If you want to hit Cui Yuan, you should blind his eyes. My father is a very particular person, and he doesn't like a one-eyed man hanging around him. This way, we can get rid of the trouble." "You think I don't want to?!" Zhu Zaigui said angrily: "I was aiming at his eyes, but...but I hit his cheek." (End of this chapter)
