Unofficial History of Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty

Li Dongyang was Yang Tinghe's former mentor and a minister who was highly valued by Emperor Zhengde. Although he was retired, he still had power in the capital, and he walked around from time to time. He still knew the situation in the court very well.But Jiang Bin didn't understand why Li Dongyang, who had been watching the political situation with his hands, was involved in this matter. Thinking of Emperor Zhengde's respect for Li Dongyang, he just asked several Jinyi guards to keep an eye on Li's mansion, and report in time when they saw Ma Ran coming out.

After sitting on the sidelines for a few days, I finally got the news.

Ma Ran was dressed as a maidservant, carrying a basket and walking all the way with her head bowed, unable to hide the amorous expression on her brows and eyes, causing many people on the road to look back.Jiang Bin led several Jinyi guards to block her in an alley, but Ma Ran did not show any surprise, but stopped and looked at them vigilantly.

"Mrs. Ma, can I take a step to speak?" Jiang Bin cut to the chase. "Mrs. Ma" was the respectful title given to Ma Ran by the servants of the Xuanfu when she was "favored". His concubine is hundreds of times stronger.

Hearing Jiang Bin call her that, Ma Ran immediately showed hostility in his eyes, but after all, she was a girl, so she had to go with a few people.When he arrived at a remote pharmacy, Jiang Bin ordered a few Jinyi guards to guard the door, while he and Ma Ran went into the back room.

"Master Jiang does not avoid suspicion..." Ma Ran raised his chin and raised his eyebrows to look at Jiang Bin, like a phoenix in trouble.

Jiang Bin gave way to the pear wood armchair, Ma Ran did not sit, Jiang Bin stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Madam must have known about Brother Ling..."

Ma Ran stared at Jiang Bin by the window and sneered, "I want to punish you..."

Jiang Bin waited for her next words, but Ma Ran didn't continue. He just looked sideways at Jiang Bin, as if resisting the confrontation of disparity in strength with indifference.Jiang Bin was uncomfortable with her eyes: "Madam should go to our company, why are you at Mr. Li's house?"

As soon as Li Dongyang was mentioned, Ma Ran's tit-for-tat silence broke immediately: "This matter has nothing to do with Master Li!" After speaking, Fang felt that there was no silver 300 taels here, and added somewhat reluctantly, "Brother once It's Mr. Li's protégé, Mr. Li only accepted me as a servant girl because of his old love, what's the matter? Mr. Jiang is going to cut off this way of life?"

Hearing the stern questioning, Jiang Bin said helplessly, "If the emperor hadn't acquiesced, how could Madam have been hiding in Mr. Li's house until now?"

When Ma Ran heard this, she said angrily: "Who wants him to be merciful? Back then, those unwarranted things that my brother promised... turned out to be the same thing and killed them all?! My brother was originally the chief soldier of Yansui, and he had nothing to do with the Tartars. If it wasn't for the promotion he promised, how could my elder brother be such a secret agent? Why do you think the battle of Yingzhou won so easily? If my elder brother did not cooperate with the enemy according to the emperor's wishes, how could the Tartars underestimate the strength of our army? " Ma Ran approached Jiang Bin who was stunned on the spot step by step, "I'm 'serving the king with color' just because I have agreed a code word with my brother, so it's easier to respond in my capacity."

Jiang Bin pressed his back against the window, half of the sunlight shone on him, but it couldn't dispel the icy cold that was falling apart in his heart.

"Ba Tumeng is so cunning, how could he trust your brother?"

Ma Ran snorted coldly, and raised her voice, "A year ago in the battle of Xuan Mansion, do you really think it was a surprise attack by Tartars? If it wasn't for the emperor who ordered my brother to inform Ba Tumengke of all the layout of Xuan Mansion, how could Ba Tumengke do it because of this?" How could you trust my brother after tasting the sweetness? How could you give the dog emperor an excuse to send troops? If you don’t believe me, you can ask the former commander who replaced you!”

At this moment, Jin Yiwei outside said in a low voice through the door: "Master Jiang, please come to the accountant of Li Dongyang's residence to see..."

The accountant in Li Dongyang's mansion is a kind-hearted old man with white hair and eyebrows. He has been in charge of Li's mansion for many years. Although he is only an accountant in name, his words are very important.Jiang Bin signaled the guard in Jinyi who notified him to watch over Ma Ran, and went outside to greet him.The old man speaks decently, and in a few words he points out the purpose of his visit.Since Li Dongyang came to ask for someone, Jiang Bin didn't feel embarrassed and asked Ma Ran to follow.

Sitting alone in the room, Jiang Bin smelled the faint fragrance of the medicine, and was in a daze for a while.Qiu Huhu was still relentless, the window was only opened a crack, and after a while, fine beads of sweat crawled on his forehead.The courage to get to the bottom of it all turned into a mocking smile when the truth was torn open with a bloody wound.It hung on Ma Ran's lips, outside the tartar's tent, and on the Sinan Pei at his waist.

Jiang Bin stood up abruptly and pushed open the door.

Qian Ning has darkened a lot, her face has become rougher, and she has lost weight. She is no longer like the arrogant "Ning Xing" she used to be.Although he bears the name of a thousand households, one can imagine the cynicism and ridicule of the "bereaved dog" around.

With a hunched back, Qian Ning casually ate the side dishes, waiting for Jiang Bin to speak.A few Jin Yiwei sat at another table, their expressions somewhat unnatural.After all, many of them were once under Qian Ning.

"Back then, the Xuan Mansion was attacked..." Jiang Bin stared at the wine glass in front of him and spoke with difficulty.

Qian Ning glanced at the Jinyiwei badge on Jiang Bin's waist and Yusi Nanpei entangled together: "Congratulations, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Bin seemed to have been stung, and his face looked ugly.

Qian Ning ate on his own for a while, then pinched a chicken leg, pointed to Lu Qing and said, "This little brother has a pretty face, where did he get his eyes and ears from?"

Lu Qing slapped the table, and Qian Ning indifferently shifted his gaze to Tang He's face: "This one is kind..."

Tang He's expression didn't change, only a coldness flashed in his eyes, Jiang Bin waved his hand to let them all back out.

For a while, there were only two people left, Qian Ning ate for a while, and suddenly said to Jiang Bin: "That's right, he did ask me to help Ma Ang fight against the enemy, but so what if you know? You want his blood Blood compensation?" After saying that, he laughed.

The laughter contained the madness of being driven into a desperate situation, and the viciousness of waiting for a good show. Jiang Bin only felt a chill in his heart for a while, and it would never come back again.
