Acting for the gods

Chapter 117

Severe illness requires strong medicine, and when the country is in crisis, iron and blood methods are needed to save the building from falling.

Jiang Fan and Zhu Youxiao talked at night by candlelight, and Zhou Miaoxuan and the others outside stood until their legs felt sore before Wei Zhongxian came out in person.

At the time of parting, Jiang Fan said to Wei Zhongxian: "Eunuch Wei, your adopted son Zhao Jingzhong is not at all loyal to serve the country, he not only seeks refuge with Xin Wang, but also secretly colludes with Hou Jin, you, as a foster father, take it easy .”

"Jing Zhong?!"

Wei Zhongxian was stunned when he heard the words, and then he smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for reminding me. This governor will write down this favor, and there will be a big reward in the future."

【another day?There must be some difference between this and the next time, you deserve to be a dead eunuch. 】

Jiang Fan complained in his heart, turned and left.

When Jiang Fan was about to arrive, Zhu Youxiao in the palace thought for a long time, and issued a secret decree to Wei Zhongxian next to him: "If you are loyal, you can let the people of Dongchang closely monitor the princes, especially the trustworthy king Zhu Youjian."

"At the same time, strengthen the defense of each yamen in the inner court, and dispatch the inner court and Dongchang to supervise the officials."

"After I pretend to be sick, I will send my trusted eunuchs to take over the nine gates of the Forbidden City, and take the seal of the Ministry of War to prevent accidents."

Wei Zhongxian heard the words, respectfully said: "This old slave will do it now."

Exiting the palace, Wei Zhongxian returned to Dongchang non-stop. Recalling what Jiang Fan said to him when he came out of the palace, Zhao Jingzhong holding a silver gun and Wang Chengen smiling appeared in his mind, with deep killing intent in his eyes.

"Zhao Jingzhong, you are really a good adopted son of our family. Not only did you take refuge in the king of Xin, but you also secretly contacted the empress gold. You really are a wolf's ambition."

"There is also Wang Chengen, a dog slave who eats inside and outside, no wonder I believed in the king's rebellion, and I didn't hear the slightest word beforehand!"

For King Xin, Wei Zhongxian had been on guard for a long time, and had sent Wang Chengen, who was still a young eunuch, to supervise the palace many years ago.

Until Zhu Youjian was born, Wang Chengen took advantage of the opportunity and became Zhu Youjian's personal eunuch.

As for Zhao Jingzhong, he was adopted son by Wei Zhongxian many years ago. He was about the same age as Zhu Youjian. At the beginning, Wei Zhongxian saw that Zhao Jingzhong was good at martial arts and vicious at a young age, so he sent him to Xinwang Mansion to get close to Zhu Youjian. check.

Unexpectedly, the other party secretly took refuge in King Xin, and the scheme fell on him.

Not only that, but also communicated with Hou Jin secretly, which is really a crime worthy of death.

Throwing the golden dice in his hand, Wei Zhongxian thought of Jiang Fan again.

I feel that this eunuch who is successful at a young age is not easy. The news channels are wider than his East Factory Governor. He even knows the secrets of the king's rebellion and the betrayal of his own subordinates. It is really scary. Have to guard against.

He is over fifty years old, and his body is still strong. He has tried the taste of power, but he doesn't want to be pushed out of power so early.

Right now, we have the same goal as Jiang Fan, and we can work together to attack Xinwang and the Donglin Party, but what about after that?
Perhaps this Jiang Fan will become a more terrifying enemy than the Donglin Party.

After a little thought, Wei Zhongxian turned his gaze to the direction of the secret room, frowned, and said to the adopted daughter who was accompanying him, "Wei Ting, how is the research on Rama's body?"

"Reporting to foster father, all of Rama's remains have been dissected, and we have found out the route through which the meridians run, but we still need to keep trying if we want to pry into the mysteries of Rama's inner strength."

Wei Ting, the girl wearing the western sword, replied respectfully. As one of Wei Zhongxian's adopted sons and daughters, Wei Ting may not be as powerful or intelligent as others, but she is the most loyal to Wei Zhongxian, so she is also deeply loved by Wei Zhongxian.

Knowing that there is no need to rush this matter, Wei Zhongxian said: "Take care of this matter quickly. I will arrange a group of young eunuchs to come over later. You should pay close attention to me. Once there is any result, report it immediately. Afterwards, these people will be dealt with cleanly. Let the third person know."

"My daughter understands."

Not long after Wei Ting left, Wei Zhongxian asked Tian Ergeng, the governor of the left, to be summoned.

Tian Ergeng is the head of the five tigers, five bulls, ten dogs, and ten boys under Wei Zhongxian. He is nearly forty years old, and he is in the prime of life. He is rebellious, cruel, cunning, and ambitious. His own martial arts is also good, he can be regarded as Wei Zhongxian's capable subordinate.

"I don't know if my adoptive father called me here overnight, what's the order?"

Although Tian Ergeng was an eunuch, he didn't look feminine at all, his eyes were sharp and vicious, which made people feel uncomfortable at first sight.

Knowing Tian Ergeng's character, Wei Zhongxian didn't criticize him harshly, and said coldly: "Someone jumped very high recently, you should go."

"The child will not disgrace his life."

After getting the blacklist from Wei Zhongxian, Tian Ergeng glanced at it, then turned and left, showing a resolute look.

"In this world of great controversy, the real winner is the one who has the last laugh."

Seeing Tian Ergeng's leaving back, Wei Zhongxian squinted his eyes and threw the golden dice.

"Three sixes, seems like a good sign."

……

After leaving the palace, Lu Wenzhao and Guo Zhen were escorted back to Beizhen Fusi by Qinglong.

Before the truth comes out, Guo Zhen, as a "dead man", is temporarily unable to show his face, so he can only continue to stay in the small room of the imperial prison.

Zhou Miaoxuan followed Jiang Fan back to the mansion.

It's an eventful time right now, and Jiang Fan has a lot to do.

That night, three thousand royal guards were sent into the palace to escort them.

When the court was in turmoil, many people thought that Zhu Youxiao, the emperor of Tianqi, would die. If he didn't pay attention to self-defeating and was faked by others, it would be more troublesome to deal with later.

Ensuring Zhu Youxiao's life safety is the first priority, followed by eradicating the chaotic party.

Jiang Fan also didn't trust Wei Zhongxian.

The old eunuch is in the dark, and now that he has obtained Rama's body, he may have undue thoughts.

"Judging from the current situation, things have not gone beyond control..."

"Hmm~"

At this moment, Jiang Fan heard footsteps approaching.

【Zhou Miaotong, what is she doing here in the middle of the night? 】

"Is the son asleep?"

Zhou Miaotong outside the door said softly.

Jiang Fan: "Sleeping!"

"......."

Zhou Miaotong was speechless, hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked away.

At this moment, a group of uninvited guests came to the gate of Jiangfu.

The people who came were all wearing night clothes, holding crossbows and arrows, and daggers hanging from their waists.

The leader has a mole between his eyebrows, holds two knives, and has fierce eyes, like a hungry wolf.

"This is the place, there is an order from above, and no chicken or dog will be left behind."

The leader ordered in a cold voice.

The men in black around nodded silently, climbed up the wall, and prepared to wash Jiangfu with blood.

"Giggle~"

Just as these people climbed over the wall and were about to shoot randomly, a cock crow pierced the night sky.

It turned out that the sleeping Nuqing Chicken lost his temper when he heard "Dogs and chickens will not be left behind".

You have nothing to do with killing dogs and chickens, but killing chickens is targeting you!
If I don't give you some flair, I really think you have no temper.
