Chapter 75 Hidden Flow Surging
As expected by Wang Shouren, there was bad news as soon as he returned to Beijing.
"In April of this year, the little prince of Tatar, the company of troops of the fire screened the border, entered from the Red Salt Pool (now south of Inner Mongolia, Ijin Holo Banner) and the Huama Pool (now Ningxia Salt Pool), and crossed thousands of miles, and Yansui and Ningxia all warned. It was killed and plundered. Emperor Xiaozong ordered Zhu Huipei, the Duke of Baoguo, to act as a general officer, and the right capital imperial Shilin to supervise the military affairs, and the eunuch Miao Kui to supervise the army and go to the imperial army. In July, the soldiers arrived in Ningxia, and the enemy was full of plunder. Zhu Hui and others divided their troops into five ways and attacked the enemy's nest in Hetao at night, but the enemy had already moved after hearing the news. The Ming army only killed three enemies and did nothing, but with the good news, the winners reached tens of thousands of people, and those who heard it should not be ashamed.
Wang Shouren was so angry when he heard the news! It's shameless to scold Zhu Hui! Such a person should be a grindstone in his next life - too thick-skinned to grind!
Fortunately, when I cursed, I was at home, and only Wang An's left ear heard it, and my right ear came out! After listening, Wang An wiped the saliva on his face: "Young master, I'm going to work!"
There is nothing to be angry with Wang Shouren. Can you make a family suddenly raise his awareness, care about state affairs, and share the enemy with him? Of course not!
Wang Shouren said, "Go ahead... By the way, have you heard from home recently?"
"Yes, there is only one, which was sent by Gao Daquan!" Wang An replied.
"Bive it to me quickly!"
"Yes!"
Opening Gao Daquan's letter, Wang Shouren was disappointed again - there was still no news of Yunyu!
However, Gao Daquan mentioned something about Zhurang and Lou Suzhen's house - the letter said: The masters have been in good health recently. On the day of their birthday, they also received a gift, which moved the masters to tears, but the rest of the house did not know who sent the gift.
Recently, strange things have happened in the Ning Palace, especially after the death of King Ning Jing and Ning Kang. Since Zhu Chenhao succeeded to the throne, his hometown Ding has either disappeared or died strangely, or disappeared inexplicably, which made the whole Ning Palace panic.
Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, is closed during the day and energetic at night. The sound of sharpening iron knives often comes from his house.
Wang San came to Gao Daquan the day before and said in a trance, "Help me, I'm going to die!" Gao Daquan thought he was joking, but he didn't expect to return to Hongdu after a few days and find out that Wang San was dead.
Wang Shouren broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead after reading the letter!
"What should I do?!" - Wang Shouren was so anxious that he couldn't wait to fly back to Hongdu immediately and find Lou Suzhen to ask what was going on, but he could only scare the snake, so he decided to find someone and let her go there in person.
Su Wuniang has been setting up her inn since she came back from Xi'an. Anyway, Wang Shouren is different from the past. Anyway, she is also a central official. She can't continue to hang out with him as before, so she set herself into running the inn. In more than a year, she has become bigger and took a more cool one. Name - Longmen Inn. Su Wuniang's explanation is: Who said that the Longmen Inn must be opened in the desert? The front of Tianzi Gate is also called Longmen!
Legend has it that the emperor heard that someone opened an inn with the word "dragon" and made a private visit in person! As for whether the rumor is true or not, only the parties concerned know! However, Wang Shouren guessed that this was just this girl's trick! The emperor was so busy that he didn't even have time to choose a concubine. He came to your little inn! Anyway, no one will ask the emperor, just take advantage of it!
Wang Shouren walked into the inn in casual clothes, and a shopkeeper greeted him: "guest officer, are you at the top or staying in the hotel?"
Wang Shouren shook his hair: "Neither sharp nor stay in the store!"
"The guest officer is coming..."
"I'm here to rob!"
"This..."
At this time, Su Wuniang came downstairs with a smile, patted the confused shopkeeper on the shoulder, and said, "Go and do your business!" She looked at Wang Shouren and asked, "Are you robbing money or sex?"
Wang Shouren said solemnly, "Of course, there is no disaster!" There should be a little money, but I didn't see the color!"
"You..." Su Wu Niang waved her hand and was about to fight over, and was grabbed by Wang Shouren's jade arm.
Su Wuniang pulled back her arm and sighed, "Hey, you and Li Xianji are not what they used to be, and they won't come to support the opening of the store! A head of the criminal department and a head of the household department! How can you still pay attention to me!"
Wang Shouren ignored what she said, but said to Xiao Er, "Xiao Er, have a bowl of vinegar!"
Su Wuniang stared and asked, "Why are you jealous?"
Wang Shouren said, "You are so sour, I won't accompany you?"
"Let's go! You have nothing to do with the Three Treasures Hall! Tell me, what's the matter?" Su Wuniang lowered her eyes and raised her eyebrows, looked at her jade hand and said.
Wang Shouren said, "Yesterday I received a letter from my hometown, saying that Ning Wangfu is now very strange - my hometown Ding died strangely or mysteriously disappeared! I have a hunch that Wang Chen is going to start the activity! Can you go to Ning Palace?"
Su Wuniang said, "Do you want me to go deep into the tiger's den alone?"
Wang Shouren said, "We are together, but as a Beijing official, it is difficult to get out, but once you are in danger, I can't come forward!"
Su Wuniang nodded: "According to historical records, in the 18th year of Hongzhi, Emperor Xiaozong will be gone. There are still four years left. It's time for Wang Chen to come out for activities! Although the court was depressed, the three swordsmen were loyal to protecting the country, so he naturally did not dare to act rashly. It seems that he can only start from King Ning now! You're right, and I also think it's time for him to act! But..."
Su Wuniang pouted, so Wang Shouren asked, "But what is it?"
Su Wu Niang said, "I'm sorry for my store! Business is just booming! Alas!"
"Fighting for your afterlife!" Wang Shouren comforted.
The next day, Wang Shouren returned to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
Colleagues came to congratulate him one after another, saying that when he was still in Huizhou, his conspiracy to solve the case had spread to the capital. As soon as Zhou Shilang came back, he recommended Wang Shouren.
Wang Shouren smiled and asked, "What interesting things have happened in the capital recently?"
"Yes, of course, I heard that today's prince is really smart, which makes people in Zhan Shifu upside down. In a word - as long as he is not allowed to study and let him play, he can do anything! However, only the female bachelor Shen Yulian can subdue him. In addition to the eunuch Liu Jin, he is also afraid of this female champion! However, Liu Jin, a little eunuch, did not coax him to study, but changed his method to make the prince happy. I heard that this little eunuch has two tricks to make alive! The prince is more amiable to Liu Jin than his own father, and when he goes to bed every night, he has to listen to this little eunuch's story to fall asleep!" There is a colleague who is good at gossip.
Hearing this, Wang Shouren frowned and cursed in his heart: "No wonder Zhu Chenhao usurped the throne. This son of a bitch Zhu Houzhao is not the material to be an emperor!"
