Although Yabu is not very old, he has been sick all the time, and he looks older than others due to his illness.Yang Dan is obviously the second son, and the father and son stand together as if Yabu is bringing the younger son.

There were too many things in the General Secretary's yamen, and they couldn't finish explaining them in one day. After the two came out of the secret room, the father and son had dinner together, and Yaerjiang came over.It was too late, and Yang Dan didn't leave, which showed that he must stay in the palace at night.

Yaerjiang affirmed this matter when he came to eat with him, and ordered his servant to ask Ji Fujin for something.All the good things in the Wangfu's inventory were dug out and stuffed into Yangdan's yard.

When Yang Dandang went to sleep at night, he came to show his merits happily.

Lying on the bed, Yang Dan turned his head to see him beaming under the lamp, and for a moment didn't know what kind of emotion to express.

I couldn't help but ask this elder brother, "Do you think it's a good job to take care of those trivial matters in the clan every day...?"

Yaerjiang said happily: "Look at what you said, of course it's a good job! This shows that our palace is higher than other palaces."

Yaerjiang snapped his fingers to settle accounts for this silly brother, "Think about it, in the future, no matter what happens in the princes' houses, they will come to us, such as weddings and funerals, and putting jade plates on their little wives are even more important. The most important thing is that the Clan Mansion organizes the evaluation, who should be awarded the title of Lord of the Town, Generals and Dukes of the State, we need the Palace to nod and hand it over, and the Emperor will approve it, what a power this is!"

In the final analysis, it is still the steward of the family. Compared with controlling the affairs of the Eight Banners in the past, the power is still small.

Yang Dan turned his head to the side. From the current point of view, Huang Ama wants to raise the clan as pigs.But my own family, Ama, escaped unharmed, holding a power invisible to others, and this power made Prince Jane's mansion above all the king's mansions.This silly brother didn't know that the palace he inherited was just an empty shell, and he didn't inherit the real power.

Thinking of this, he turned over and sat up, "There is something I want to tell you..."

Speaking of this, Yang Dan paused for a moment, and must not tell others about the affairs of the General Secretary’s Yamen, and then changed his words to another matter, “I will go to Jiangnan in two days, and Ama is afraid that there will be someone on the way.” Anyway, give me a team of guards."

"If you give it to you, you should keep it. This is what it should be. Our two brothers are Er Niang's own sons. They are the serious young masters of this mansion. It's fine when you can't go out. When you go out, you can take the kitten two or three times." Only, this is shameful! Did Ama tell you how many people there are?"

"Two or three hundred."

There are quite a few people, "You take them all?"

"No, it's enough to bring fifty or sixty of them...Ama also said to give me the whole family of the guards, since I don't have a place right now, so I'll discuss with you and raise them in the mansion first."

It's really not a big deal for Yaerjiang to feed a few hundred people, "If you keep them, you can take care of them. The man who raised you is happy, let alone a few months, even if you raise them for a few years, you don't want to see him. It's better than raising something irrelevant. You don't know, the successor of Fujin's natal family came to fight the autumn wind, and the woman sent out the good things of our palace one by one, and Ama pretended not to see it. Tell me to say, Is this woman taking this opportunity to save things for his sons? Otherwise, can Ama not say a word!"

Seeing that the topic turned back to these messy things at home, Yang Dan thought why his brother had become so angry, and didn't want to bring up this matter again, so he changed the subject, "My nephews are not young anymore, so How have you been reading for many years?"

"So-so, just passable, know a few words."

"Have you found a master for them? How is the bow and horse practice?"

"These boys yelled that their legs hurt as soon as they got on the horse. Your sister-in-law and I feel sorry for them. Don't let them practice so hard. Now that there is no war outside, even if there is a war, there is no need for our children to charge. In the front, there is nothing wrong with getting used to it."

"It's still necessary to let them learn more skills. Having a good skill is better than anything else."

"I know, I know, you see you are so young, mother-in-law and mother are like old ladies, this mouth is nagging endlessly, it's getting late, go to bed early, my brother will wake you up tomorrow, let's accompany Ama Eat breakfast."

Watching him go out, Yang Dan sighed and fell back on the bed, pulling up the quilt to cover his face.

He didn't know how far Prince Jian's mansion could go, and he couldn't bear it in his heart. How heroic his ancestors were back then, the descendants left behind were all bears.

After Yang Dan followed Yabu to learn everything, under the protection of the guards, he met Eleven Brother, and the two brothers rode to Jiangnan together.

These guards are all from the General Office of the General Administration, and they are the guards of the royal residence in name, but they actually receive double money, one from the royal residence and the other from the official residence of the General Administration.

After they followed Yang Dan, they changed their mouths. They didn't call each other the second master or the master when they met like other guards in the palace, but they opened and closed their mouths as adults.

Brother Eleven waited for several days, but now he couldn't help complaining after seeing Yang Dan.

"You said you said goodbye to your Ama, why did you go for so many days at once?!"

"It didn't take long, only seven or eight days."

"Isn't that long? Let me tell you, if you take a boat in seven or eight days, you will almost reach the south of the Yangtze River."

It wasn't as exaggerated as he said, but it was true that Eleven had been waiting for a long time. Yang Dan apologized repeatedly and promised a lot of benefits.

It is faster to walk by water, and Eleven's body can't stand the bumps for too long. It would really be a pain for Eleven to rely on horseback riding all the way.So the two of them arrived at Tongzhou Wharf, picked a sturdy and durable boat, boarded it, and traveled day and night to the south of the Yangtze River.

After disembarking, the chariot and horse dealership operated by the General Secretary Yamen equipped them with horses. Now that Shengjia has arrived in Jinling, the two of them planned to go straight to Hangzhou as stated in the letter. After getting the latest news from the chariot dealer, they changed their route. Go to Jinling.

It was summer at this time, and the weather in the south of the Yangtze River was relatively hot. Brother Eleven felt that he couldn't support himself after he left for a while.

"Let's rest, I'm always feeling dizzy right now."

Yang Dan reined in his horse, looked up at the sun in the sky, and was worried about heatstroke on November [-], so he asked someone to hold a water bag for him, "Then let's rest for a while, the sun is too big now, and the sun will not be so bad after a while." Let's go after poisoning."

A group of people found a cool forest and let their horses go to graze in the forest.Others took out dry food and water bags, and replenished water while eating dry food.

At this time, it seemed that a team of escorts came over.There were forty or fifty people in this group, riding mules and donkeys, and several large boxes were placed on the donkey carts.

After this group of people came here, they wiped the sweat off their faces with their sleeves, and also settled down in this forest. A group of people sat around the donkey cart, looking at Yang Dan and the others.

A guard drank a few sips of water and carefully approached Yang Dan, "My lord, there is something wrong. They look dusty, but the wheels look quite new and there is no mud on them."

Yang Dan turned his head to look at Elder Brother Eleven, who was humming a little tune with a piece of grass in his mouth.

Yang Dan turned his head and told the guard who spoke just now, "Separate a few skilled brothers to protect Eleventh Lord, and others will be on guard. It's fine if this group of people pass by, but if it's an assassin..."

Both of them knew the meaning of what they didn't say, and at this moment, a person came out of the escort team, "Masters, it seems that you are quite hot, we have Rendan for heatstroke prevention, do you want to buy it?" , not expensive, a bag of one hundred pieces, a total of ten taels of silver."

After saying this, the people around Yang Dan began to scold, "Damn it, a hundred ten taels of silver is not expensive, you can't find anything more expensive than this."

The person on the opposite side took out a cloth bag, opened it and let so many people take a look first, "We have good quality and low price, you can use it before you buy it. If you think it's expensive, we can negotiate the price again. Don't try?"

But these guards of the General Administration Department’s Yamen often walk around outside, and they are more defensive than others. The older one has a good attitude, "Little brother, we don't buy this, you can keep it."

"I met you on the road. Let's make friends. It was indeed a bit expensive just now. There's nothing you can do about it. After all, everyone is out to mess around. We're asking for a lot of money, and you can pay back the money on the ground. What price do you offer? Let's hear it." listen."

As he spoke, he shook the bag, grabbed a few pills from it, and stuffed them to the person in front of him, "Everyone is brothers when they go out, so treat it as a friend. If you bargain too hard, we won't sell it, but I can give you a few to taste."

It was the first time for Yang Dan to go out for a long time. At this time, he saw several guards sitting in front of him stretched their hands behind their backs, and they had already grasped the handles of their weapons.I already knew in my heart not to do anything now.

Turning around to look at Brother Eleven quickly, Brother Eleven didn't feel that something was wrong, so he spit out the grass roots in his mouth and shouted: "You can eat one first, don't add other things in it?"

He yelled that out of his own habit, after all, the things that the masters in the palace put into their mouths were poisoned by others.In his opinion, there is nothing wrong with yelling like this, but this group of dart guards are already guilty of guilt.

The group of people sitting next to the donkey cart suddenly shouted, "Do it," they took out weapons from the box and rushed over.

Just when this group of people rushed forward with shouts, the guards here had already started to move, and the guards next to Yangdan pushed him to the eleventh elder brother.

Eleven was startled. After being surprised, he immediately calmed down, and hung himself on the decorative dagger on his waist, "My dear, people say that troublesome people come out of poor mountains and rivers, but I didn't expect that there are also troublesome people in this land of fish and rice."

Yang Dan had already been pushed over by the guards and pulled out the long sword in his hand.

The opponent came prepared, and this side is also prepared. The two sides are on the verge of breaking out, and each has casualties after the battle.

After all, there are more people here, those assassins can't break through the protection circle of the guards no matter what, and they can't hurt Yang Dan and Brother Eleven.

Seeing that there was no way to kill the most important person, the leader dropped the corpses of his brothers and shouted: "Retreat."

This group of people wanted to run away, Yang Dan thought that he had just encountered such a thing when he took over, if he didn't make things better at this time, he would not be able to explain to Huang Ama in Jinling.

He pushed the guards beside him, "Use firearms, regardless of whether you are killed or injured, don't let these people escape."

The guards around him took out their firearms from their clothes, and those in front all got down on the ground, and the firearms slammed a few times. These guards quickly reloaded and fired again.The leading assassin was shot twice, but escaped, and the other assassins stayed here.

A group of people interrogated them all night and did not get any news from these people.Some guards came to Yang Dan quietly, "After all, we didn't do this, why don't we hand them over to the brothers in Jinling? .

The news of the assassination at noon had already been sent to Jinling by carrier pigeons, and people had already come to help, and the fastest speed would be to arrive in the middle of the night today.

Yang Dan nodded, telling them to be careful, and the guards surrounded Yang Dan and Brother Eleven.

After the people from Jinling came over, the two sides exchanged secret seals and letters, and made clear to each other. The guards protected the two of them in a carriage and continued on their way.

Brother Eleven couldn't fall asleep, so he couldn't help asking: "Yang Dan, do you think that the guards around you are very powerful, much better than those slick and useless imperial guards."

Yang Dan lay in the carriage with his back to him, his heart skipped a beat, but he said: "You can't praise them like this, they are the guards of the palace, how can they be better than the imperial guards, all of them are selected from the Eight Banners Master."

Brother Eleven sat up, "You can push it down, I don't believe what you say, they are dignitaries selected from the Eight Banners, they are not masters. Those in your palace are called masters, hey, I think these people It's pretty good, I will go out to live in the future, can you ask your Ama to help me find some people like this?"

Yang Dan relaxed, as long as one does not doubt the origin of this group of people is enough.

He turned back and lay down looking at Eleven, "Okay, I'll find you some good players in the world when the time comes, as long as these people take care of them with good food and drink, they are willing to work hard. But then again, if you have the ability People with big tempers, if you yell at them, they may not be willing to work for you."

"Look at what you said, I'm not that kind of person either. I just haven't been out of the house, what happened today surprised me." After lying down on Eleven, he felt a little worried, "I'm scared. You are not allowed to tell Huang Ama and the empress, once you tell me, my mother will know sooner or later, and she will make a fuss if she finds out."

"Yeah, actually, I was so scared that I almost peed my pants today."

Each other is safe now, the carriage is walking slowly, and there are rhythmic hoofbeats beside it. The two brothers hide in the carriage. In the drowsiness and memories of today's day, Eleven suddenly asked A question: "Why do the guards in your palace have firearms? They are not familiar with the firearms battalion outside the city."

"Ah, oh, oh~" Yang Dan is no longer sleepy for a while, he must not admit to the private possession of firearms in the palace, it is a crime if he confesses.

"This is... This is a new firearm from the Firearms Camp. My Ama asked me to show it to the emperor. Otherwise, I would have let them use firearms a long time ago. Why do I have to let so many brothers go forward to fight for their lives? This is also useless." It's a matter of solution, and I will apologize when I see Huang Ama later."

Eleven was about to fall asleep, muttering, "I'm just talking..."

Yang Dan couldn't fall asleep at all, and kept his eyes open until dawn.

After dawn, they had already entered Jinling City, Yang Dan yawned and relaxed all over.

Someone had already followed up at the gate of the city to inquire, and then took the injured guards to other places to recuperate.

Yang Dan woke up Brother Eleven after the wounded were received by the Department of General Administration. Eleven was weak, but not stupid.Even though all the handovers just now were silent, Yang Dan was still worried about being noticed by Brother Eleven.

"Eleven, how did you sleep on the road yesterday? Did you have any nightmares?"

"You put it this way...I slept well last night, dreaming until dawn." After finishing speaking, he yawned, "If you didn't call me, I would still fall asleep."

"Don't sleep, good brother, someone greeted us at the door just now, saying that Huang Ama is waiting for us."

Brother Eleven was very surprised, "Really? You have seen the servants sent by Huang Ama, what do you say? How are Huang Ama and Niangniang brothers these days? Why didn't you call me just now? I can also ask How are Thirteen and Fourteen playing recently?"

Eleven was elated, and opened the curtains of the carriage to look out. The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River was indeed different from that in the north. He became excited and kept calling Yang Dan to come and watch with him.

Yang Dan's heart relaxed, and the two brothers returned to their normal appearance, pointing at the things they saw on the street.

In particular, someone pushed a wheelbarrow, and there were two well-dressed women sitting in the car. The two women looked tired and were yawning with their sleeves covering their mouths.Their pointed feet protruded from under the skirts, making them look open.

When they found the two brothers lying on the window of the carriage looking at them, the two women waved to the two brothers, and called out coquettishly: "Master, remember to come to the servant's house!"

The two brothers suddenly stared like frightened little animals, and the two women covered their mouths with handkerchiefs and laughed.

The wheelbarrow was not moving as fast as the carriage, and the laughter was quickly thrown behind. The two brothers squeezed their heads out together, wanting to see the two women again, but the window was so big that it was difficult to squeeze their heads out together. , All of a sudden they bumped into each other with an ouch.

The people following the car turned their heads to look at the two of them, and Eleven pointed at the following guards: "What do you look like? Are you kidding me?"

"The slave doesn't have the guts."

Eleven swears, it was definitely someone who smiled at him, and he leaned on the window relentlessly, "You have it, you have it, you have it, say, who were those two just now? Did you just laugh when they talked?" Lord?"

"No, even if you give this slave a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to laugh at you. Those two are daughters-in-law. How can someone from a good family show their face and show their feet so early in the morning?"

Eleven stuck his head out and looked back, the wheelbarrow just now had disappeared long ago, the servant following the cart coaxed him to sit in the cart, don't stick his head out, "Master, it's not good looking, you step back, slave Draw the curtain for you."

"Dog slave!" Eleven cursed, retracted his head and turned to look at Yang Dan, seeing Yang Dan was rubbing his forehead and yawning, then shrank tiredly in the corner of the carriage.

"Yangdan, did you steal sheep yesterday? Why do you look like you haven't slept?"

"I just met an assassin yesterday, do you think I can sleep?"

"Your guards are so powerful, why can't you sleep?"

Yang Dan didn't talk to him. In his opinion, Eleven was a bit carefree, and he was very envious of his carefreeness.

"Don't talk about this anymore, let me squint for a while, wake me up when it's time, and let's go to see Huang Ama together."

Eleven didn't let him sleep: "We'll be there soon. No matter how big Jinling City is, it won't be as big as the capital city. You can find time to sleep after you visit Huang Ama and Empress. Yangdan, did you see those two women just now? The ones outside The slave told me..."

Brother Eleven didn't finish talking, Yang Dan had already fallen asleep, Brother Eleven could only sigh, and then lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out on his stomach.

Sure enough, the carriage arrived at the gate of the Weaving Mansion after a while. Thirteen and Fourteen had been waiting for a long time. When the two saw the carriage coming, they went out together. Seeing the man lift the pedals, they stood below and yelled, " Brother Yangdan, Brother Eleven, we are here, get out of the car."

Eleven dragged the sleepy Yang Dan out of the car, and happily greeted his two younger brothers: "Thank you for waiting so early, you have worked hard, you have worked hard. We encountered some trouble on the road yesterday, so Yang Dan stayed overnight Didn't sleep, I can't hold on for a while, where is Huang Ama? Let's go see him quickly, and let Yang Dan sleep for a while after the meeting."

Thirteen turned around and looked around. No one around them noticed their brothers. They led the two of them through the door. When they arrived at a secluded place in the corridor, Fourteen nodded and ran to the side to watch the wind. Thirteen was quite solemn, "You guys Now that you are here, let me tell the two brothers in advance that the prince is locked up and no one is allowed to see him."

Yang Dan, who was yawning, didn't yawn, and started to hiccup with a grunt in his throat, "Hi... hiccup... what are you talking about... hiccup..."

Eleven also felt the turmoil inside, and quickly patted Yang Dan on the back, asking while patting, "What's going on?"

Thirteen shook his head: "We don't know either. We only heard about it after it happened. No one in the entire Holy Driver team dared to talk about it. It's like the prince didn't come to Jiangnan. By the way, don't mention the prince. , Mention Huang Ama and get angry. Some officials are not clear. After meeting Huang Ama, they said they want to meet the prince. As a result, several of them were pulled out by wearing Hualing, and some people were dragged to the door. There was a fight outside, but it’s not peaceful now.”

"Hi... hiccup... hiccup..."

"Got it, where is Huang Ama now?"

"I'm waiting for you in the courtyard where the empress lives, Brother Yangdan, if you want some water, press it first."

Eleven kept patting Yang Dan on the back, and after listening to it, he made a decision for Yang Dan, "It's definitely necessary, I can't go to see Huang Ama like this, and ask someone to order some tea for Yang Dan to drink first."

Three people came out, Elder Fourteen stared at Yang Dan: "You are too timid! Why are you so scared?"

"Brother Fourteen, he's shocked." Eleven saluted Yang Dan.

Fourteen was quite disdainful, "Then what do you think is the difference between being startled and being frightened?"

It seems that the difference is not too big.

The four of them walked forward slowly. On the way, Brother Thirteen's eunuch went to find a pot of hot tea and poured a cup for Yang Dan to drink. Finally, the hiccup stopped.

The two brothers came here in a hurry, washed their faces and changed into cleaner clothes to meet their parents.

Along the way, Yang Dan kept yawning, and it was precisely because of the yawning that Tian Mi was so distressed that she urged Yang Dan to go to sleep as soon as they met.

Now these few people retreated quickly, avoiding the possibility of the whole family sitting together and mentioning the prince.

Fourteen beat Yang Dan vigorously, "We escaped a catastrophe, if it wasn't because of your drowsy look, the empress wouldn't have let us out so quickly, if you didn't come out so quickly, definitely If you want to talk with Huang Ama, if you talk, you will inevitably turn to the prince's affairs, you have saved the younger brothers."

At this moment, Yang Dan felt that his brain was not enough, so he agreed a few words beside him, and then followed the eunuch to his room.

However, Tian Mi and Kangxi have different attitudes towards Yang Dan's arrival.

Tian Mi was scratching her heart at this moment, thinking about how to keep Yang Dan safe.Kangxi felt that this boy Yang Dan was indeed raised in the palace, and he had a few brushes.When I met an assassin on the road, I didn't panic.Although the head of the enemy escaped, the others were captured alive.

Thinking of this, he ordered Li Dequan, "Let Yang Dan come to see me after he wakes up."

Kangxi came out from the backyard and went to the front, Cao Yin was full of congratulations.

"This is really better than blue. It is worthy of being the child raised by the master and the mother. Brother Yangdan now looks like a young phoenix that is better than an old phoenix."

Kangxi happily accepted the compliment, "You are right, Yang Dan is calm and calm, he is really good."

At least Eleven is much better than the naive, romantic and silly Elder Brother.But then again, his expectations for these two children are different. Kangxi has very low requirements for elder brother eleven, as long as he can survive.Don't ask him to make meritorious deeds, as long as he can live a long life, it is a great achievement.

The demands on Yang Dan are much higher, and Kangxi is very satisfied with this performance, thinking that one day Yang Dan will always be better than Yabu.

"When Yang Dan recovers, you should give him a clear account of the General Secretary's affairs. In the future, if you have anything to do, please contact Yang Dan. By the way, Li Xu's matter should also have a conclusion."

Cao Yin's heart skipped a beat, "How does Master want to deal with Li Xu?"

A few days ago, Li Xu's biological mother, Mrs. Wen, rushed over from Suzhou on purpose, and begged Kangxi to spare Li Xu's life with snot and tears. one side.

Let Li Xu take his family back to the capital, and the Li family ransacked the house.

Cao Yin secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and just left his life alone.The emperor only inspected the Jiangnan side, but did not move the capital side.

At this time, Li Xu was so regretful that he should have hidden more money in the old house in the capital.

It's not that there is no money in the capital, but compared with the luxurious life here, the tens of thousands of taels of silver over there really can't stop anything.

But I have to say, this is indeed a narrow escape.

He didn't dare to delay, and took the whole family to the north by boat, and he didn't dare to show off his might on the way. Now that he was a criminal, he didn't dare to go to the post station to disturb him.The whole family arrived in the capital wearing moon cloaks. Fortunately, relatives and friends at home were still willing to help.

For example, the Sun family of the Cao family, who had a good relationship with the Li family, helped the Li family run back and forth. Except for Li Xu himself who was guilty, the other men in the family were acquitted.

Li Xu was assigned to serve in Shengjing, and the rest of the family went to the House of Internal Affairs to wait for assignments.

From a noble son in the south of the Yangtze River to a slave in the capital, these nephews of the Li family couldn't bear this gap in their hearts for a while.

Eighth Prince's staff member, Mr. He, met Li Xu's sons on the road and invited them over for a drink.

Originally, this Mr. He set up a merciful sign for the eighth elder brother out of good looks. He wanted everyone to see that the eighth elder brother did not dislike the former criminal and took the initiative to associate with him.

But I didn't expect that after drinking this wine all night, Mr. He got a shocking secret when the sky was about to dawn.

Several members of the Li family were intoxicated, and were stimulated by Mr. He's words, "My father is a bold man, I didn't expect such a catastrophe, and it ended up like this because the whereabouts of the money was unknown."

He couldn't help shouting: "It's not because of the matter of a few taels of silver, it's all because of the General Secretary Yamen that the emperor is angry..."

Mr. He had never heard of such a place as the Office of the General Administration, so he couldn't help asking quietly: "What is the Office of the General Administration? Where is the office? Who is the head of this office? What does it do?"

"In Jiangnan, King Jian is the chief officer... what else can he do? Spy on secrets, murder traitors..."

Mr. He seemed to have been struck by lightning, and it took him a long time to move, "I didn't expect that!"

At this time, he was not only worried about Eighth Brother, but what if the people from the General Secretary's Yamen were eyeing Eighth Brother?

At this time, he couldn't help pushing the men of Li's family, "Is there a government office in the capital?"

The people in the Li family have fallen asleep.

Mr. He hurried back to the mansion to look for the eighth elder brother. The eighth elder brother was frightened when he heard it, but this man was very courageous, so he shook his head after thinking for a while.

"There are no people in the office of the General Administration Department in the capital. If there were, the Crown Prince and the Boss would not be able to hide their affairs, nor would I be able to hide my affairs."

Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but narrowed. Prince Jane went to Jiangnan several times.Every time I go to Guangdong and Guangxi, that place is indeed the place where the anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty riots are the most serious.

So, he used to suppress and kill those rebels, so what was the fourth brother doing?

He walked around the house a few times, "Everyone has secrets, first send someone to keep an eye on Prince Jane. I want to know how he communicates with the outside world."

Mr. He couldn't help asking: "What do you mean?"

"In the early Ming Dynasty, there was the office of General Secretary. At that time, people only knew that Jin Yiwei was an eagle dog of the imperial court, but they didn't know that General Secretary was actually the same. It is still called by this name. Most likely, it came from the former Ming Dynasty. This office came from the late emperor. It is in the hands of Huang Ama, it seems that the crown prince has not succeeded, so it is better for the master to get there first."

Lao Ba had long thought of replacing the prince, and at this time, he even wanted to take the power behind him for his own use.This is a mature force that already has rules of operation.Moreover, the people in the imperial court didn't know about such a huge yamen, nor had they ever received money from the Ministry of Households. So this means that the yamen of the General Administration Department has its own source of money.

Suddenly, the eighth elder brother understood the reason for Li Xu's crime. The money this old man gave him was not the money from the Weaving House to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the funds from the General Secretary's Yamen!

This old thing! !

Li Xu's life could not be saved, he called people in, and let them quickly follow the exile team to Shengjing.He even wanted to know if the Ministry of Internal Affairs got any news from Li Xu to target him.

Soon some of them entered Prince Jian's Mansion and sold themselves as slaves, and this group of people spread all over the inner and outer courtyards of Prince Jian's Mansion.

But Yabu breathed a sigh of relief because he handed in the errand.In addition to worrying about whether his son would be able to complete the task, he was also planning to destroy the files in his hand.

The old eunuch beside him accompanied him to burn the files for several days, and cleaned up the paper ashes in the secret room.

After the master and servant left the secret room, Prince Jane walked a few steps towards the entrance of the secret room.

"Don't open this place lightly in the future. Let's not go in if there is no serious matter. You have been watching this area recently. When cleaning, seal all these gaps with ash, so that no one else will find out."

The old eunuch agreed: "Don't worry, the servant will do it himself, and he will never show any flaws."

King Jian nodded. He felt very tired these two days, so he left the study and went back to the backyard to sleep.The old eunuch disposed of the paper dust, and asked someone to find some mud, and he carried it to the study to repair the cracks and corners.

This secret room is really useless, what should be moved has already been removed, what should be destroyed has also been destroyed, and it is empty inside.

The old eunuch is also very relaxed. He has accompanied the prince on secret errands for most of his life. Now that the prince has retired, he doesn't have to worry about it. He can't help but relax. Thinking that he has been followed in recent days.

The people in Eighth Brother's hands deliberately reported the old eunuch's handling of paper ashes.

The eighth elder brother got the news, and felt that there was a secret in the palace.While stepping up manpower to infiltrate into the palace, on the other hand, Yarjiang'ah was frequently invited out to drink.

He went to invite him in person, and every time his attitude was very good, Yaerjiang had no choice but to follow him out and drink a few glasses of flower wine.

Every time when he was drunk, he uttered a cliché, "□□, what have you been doing at home lately?"

Yaerjiang A was drunk: "What else can I do? Fix the little bastards in the house."

"Don't be too serious. Your Ama is not in good health now. Don't think my words are harsh. You also follow his old man to make him happy. You also want to relieve his old man's worries and give him the money he has on hand early. Taking over and doing that mess of things is no better than dealing with children at home."

"The old man doesn't have anything to do. It's just someone's wedding and wedding. He hasn't bothered to take care of these things in the past two years. They have already been handed over to me."

After hearing this, the eighth elder brother couldn't help but opened his eyes and looked at him. It seemed that Yaerjiang didn't know what kind of errand his father was doing.

That's right, this errand belongs to the imperial court, not to their family, and whether it can be passed on to him is not up to Prince Jane, but to Huang Ama in the palace.

But Prince Jane lives in secluded places, so how can he spread the news to Jiangnan?Through inspections in the past few days, it seems that no one in the palace knew about it, and no one spread the news to the outside.

The eighth elder brother suspected that the errand had been transferred to the fourth elder brother. As soon as he thought of this possibility, he subconsciously felt that it was wrong. Such a thing would never be in the hands of the close branch. The closer the relationship, the more selfish it would be.Those who master this kind of errand must be not far or close to the emperor's blood, and must be absolutely loyal.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking again: "Your ama has been recuperating at home recently...who often goes to pay his respects to the old man?"

Yaerjiang A shook the flagon and shook his head, "My Ama has a stubborn temper and I don't like to see people. Someone greeted him, but he didn't see him at all. I just left the house not long ago...to sacrifice Visit my uncle."

The eighth elder brother has never met Yaerjiang's uncle. I heard that he is a man of both civil and military skills. Some people say that he died on the battlefield, and some people say that he was assassinated.In short, when this person died, the big guy hadn't been born yet.

The eighth elder brother was wondering if Uncle Yaerjiang's death had anything to do with the Jiangnan rebels?

"Apart from going out to sacrifice, have you never seen other people? This is not good. It is easy to think wildly after staying at home for a long time."

"Who says no? He doesn't like anyone. His eyes are dark and sideways, which makes me tremble all over. But my mother treats Yang Dan pretty well. Yang Dan didn't come to the house before he went to Jiangnan a while ago. How many days have you stayed? The old man is very kind to him, leading him to talk in the study, walking around the garden. He also gave him a lot of guards. "

Eighth Prince smiled, "Yangdan doesn't go home often, it's understandable that you, Ama, are partial."

Now the position of the son of the world has arrived
