Chapter 384 Purpose

Niu Er was completely stunned. He never expected that he was just a blacksmith and had to face such a dilemma all at once!

Zhao Yuan looked at his appearance and said, "Don't worry too much. After following me, I went to the Jinyiwei, where can I ensure your safety!"

Niu Er said in confusion: "Really?"

Zhao Yuan said: "Really, you can rest assured about this!"

In fact, Zhao Yuan knew very well that Niu Er had no value at all. The so-called no value at all means that Niu Er had been in contact with him for so long, and it was enough to tell himself in detail what he knew. Once he finished speaking, for those who wanted to kill him, there was no value at all. The only thing was to vent his hatred.

But I can't say I'll throw it away after using it, so in order to ensure his safety, I still have to bring him back to the Jinyiwei.

After arriving at the Jinyiwei, Zhao Yuan immediately handed over the troubled Japanese sword and asked, "I ask you, do you know this sword?"

Niu Er took the knife, looked carefully, and said, "I know, what is this knife really made."

Zhao Yuan said: "Can you see clearly?"

Niu Erdao: "The young man saw it very clearly. It was indeed built by our blacksmith shop. Because of the rush to work, the knife was particularly rough and far worse than the ordinary one, but it was no problem to use it!"

Zhao Yuan was not happy with Jude when he got this news. After someone took Niu Er down, Zhao Yuan immediately found Zhang Sixi and told him the matter. After hearing this, Zhang Sixi's face changed and said, "This matter is important. I think it is necessary for you to meet the master directly! Explain it in detail."

Zhao Yuan thought for a while and said, "Where is that lord today?"

Zhang Sixi sent someone to inquire, and soon the news came, saying that Lu Bing and other ministers would go to visit the mountain with the emperor.

The town is right behind the palace and on the central axis of the entire journey. In the early years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, Xiao Xun, the doctor of the Ministry of Works, participated in the demolition of the Yuan Forbidden City, and personally saw the scenery of the back garden, as well as the golden hall, green hall, flower pavilion, felt pavilion and other buildings. During the Yongle period, Zhu Di, the Ming Chengzu, built a large-scale city, palace and garden in Beijing. According to the saying "Canglong, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Xuanwu, and the four spirits of the sky, to be directed to the four directions", the north of the Forbidden City is the position of Xuanwu, and there should be mountains. Therefore, the digging of the Forbidden City Twin River and Taiye, the soil in the South China Sea accumulates on the "green mountains" to form five peaks, called "Wansui Mountain". Because of a barrier north of the palace, Feng Shui warriors called it "Zhenshan".

Zhao Yuan looked at Zhang Sixi and said, "What should I do now?"

Zhang Sixi said: "It's not too late, you have to go there in person. The adults should go on the morning court. We will first meet with his guards, and then find an opportunity to report to the adults. How about it?"

Zhao Yuan said: "I'll ask the Qianhu to make the decision!"

The two of them stayed there without hesitation, and immediately went straight to the palace, joined the guards, waiting for Lu Bing's morning court to end.

In fact, Emperor Jiajing is no longer in the morning court, and the major affairs in the court are just the ministers who gather together to deal with the matter.

Lu Bing left the hall and saw that Zhao Yuan was also in the team. He was a little surprised. He saw that Zhang Sixi was also there, and knew something was wrong in his heart. He nodded slightly to the two of them, and then went to the mountain behind him. There were more than ten adults including Yan Song and others. Some of them had not seen this emperor for a long time, so they were naturally willing to go with him.

When he arrived at the foot of the town, Emperor Jiajing had not arrived yet. Lu Bing's more common people greeted him, came to the side, nodded to Zhao Yuan and the others, and Zhao Yuan and the others immediately rushed forward and were about to salute.

Lu Bing waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. You came in a hurry. What did you do?"

Zhang Sixi said to Zhao Yuan: "You'll say it!"

Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "When I say that, my subordinates were ordered to investigate theft of the escort agency and found the blacksmith shop. As a result, the blacksmith shop was slaughtered all night! Only two were left, one of them was the wife of the shopkeeper, and finally died in the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, and the other was the blacksmith who escaped. He had found the person this morning, and he revealed a very important news. The blacksmith shop where they were located had almost made nearly thousands of Japanese knives during this period! In addition, after confirming that the swords used by those who died in the house two days ago were from their hands, so my subordinates rashly speculated that at least about 1,500 Japanese pirates had sneaked into the capital, but they had not yet discovered it!"

When Lu Bing heard this, his face changed and said, "What did you say? One thousand five hundred people?"

Zhao Yuan said: "The subordinates only inferred from the swords made by the blacksmith shop. As for whether there are other blacksmith shops in the capital, they are not aware of the subordinates. As for the purpose of their visit, they are not aware of it for the captured Japanese pirate leader, the riverside of Inakami, but there is one thing that the subordinates still haven't figured out!"

Lu Bing said: "What's the matter?"

Zhao Yuan said: "The person who fought with me and Wushuang that night was very skilled. Even Wushuang couldn't win, or he could get a half-day advantage. My subordinates thought that it would be easy to rescue this Inoue from the prison with his ability. Why did they still mobilize and sneak into the capital at such a big risk!"

After all, the capital is at the foot of the emperor, and there are also heavy troops stationed here. The number of more than 1,500 people seems to be quite large, but the number is a bit small compared to the defenders in the city.

Of course, if they were intentionally destroying the city, the number of people killed and injured would be very amazing.

What Zhao Yuan said was also a bit confused. Inoue was not detained in a black prison, but was imprisoned in ordinary cells, and it was true that the prison cells were strictly guarded, but that was only aimed at ordinary people. If the old man took action that night, it would not be difficult to rescue him. There was no need to mobilize such a group of troops and sneak into the capital, unless they had other purposes.

Lu Bing also realized the seriousness of the problem at this moment. More than 1,500 Japanese pirates sneaked into the capital. Whether it was Jinyiwei or Dongchang, they didn't notice it. They were simply a naked satirical sarcasm for the two spy agencies that claimed to be the most elite in the court. If this group of people really began to appear in the capital, countless people would be killed or injured, and no one who was responsible for the safety and defense of the capital would be able to escape.

After thinking about it, he said to Zhao Yuan: "Come with me!"

After saying that, he called his subordinates to come immediately, and rode one by one, quickly left the foot of the mountain, and ran back to the palace. The ministers waiting beside him looked a little puzzled, and they had no idea what was going on.

After walking out, Lu Bing continued, "Is it you who ran to Yan Song's mansion last night and threatened Yan Shifan?"

Zhao Yuan didn't expect that Lu Bing knew it was done by himself, so he said, "Yes!"

He didn't tell any reason. Since Lu Bing knew that it was done by himself, he certainly knew the reason for his trip. He had no grudges and no grudges with Yan Shifan, so he couldn't threaten him for no reason.

Lu Bing said: "You are too brave. That's the residence of the chief minister of the dynasty. You should be your back garden, right?"

Zhao Yuan said: "I know my mistake, please punish me."

Lu Bing said: "Forget it, what crime is it? But you'd better get Wu Jin away from the capital. Otherwise, with the character of the Yan family father and son, of course it wouldn't be possible to just let it go. Would you really plan to kill them at that time? After all, he was the chief assistant of the dynasty, how could he kill him just by saying that he was killed?"

Zhao Yuan said: "I know, but sir, there is another thing. Even if Wu Jin is sent away, if she is not dead, the Yan family's father and son will investigate it."

Lu Bing said: "Now you know the truth is that it's a big deal? There are some female death row prisoners in the Jinyiwei's cell. At that time, find a similar person to send it to Wu Jin's yard, and then arrange for someone to assassinate it, burning the yard with fire! As long as the body found is determined to be Wu Jin and was assassinated and killed by someone, the Yan family's father and son dare not pursue it. Although Wu Shan has been dismissed from office, he still has some influence in the court. The Yan family's father and son are both smart people, and they will not pursue it, otherwise the suspect of this killer will fall on them."

Zhao Yuan was delighted and said, "Thank you for your advice."

Lu Bing snorted and said, "Guide? I am not guiding you, but I hope you will take back your mind and deal with the things in front of you. The Zuo Sect's affairs have not been completed yet, and now another Japanese pirate has come!"

Zhao Yuan said: "I will do my best to share my worries!"

Lu Bing said: "If you share my worries, just mobilize all the experts of your Iron Blood Sect here, such as the Eagle King and the Tiger King."

Zhao Yuan said: "I have sent someone to send a letter back, but..."

Lu Bing said: "It's just what?"

Zhao Yuan said: "This Eagle King, the seniors of the Tiger King were originally from the Demon Sect, and the Eagle King was detained in the black prison of the Jinyiwei. He asked them to let go of their prejudices and the Jinyiwei, and his subordinates also felt a little sleepy. Therefore, I invited my second master and Duan Shuiquan, the leader of the Beggars' Sect, to come. In addition, there are Tang Qingyun in the Tang Sect! They are all good players, and hope they can have time! In addition, nearly 1,500 Japanese pirates sneaked into the capital. As long as they were people, they would eat, drink, and defecate, so my subordinates thought they could send someone to investigate the capital first."

Lu Bing said: "A thorough investigation, are you trying to alarm those Japanese pirates?"

Zhao Yuan said: "When my subordinates brought Niu Er back, they met an assassin. Now they are very clear that we already know the secret of the blacksmith shop. To be precise, they have already alerted the snake. Even if we don't check, they will be very careful. It's better to check it out with great fanfare to see if they can force them out of the darkness. Even if they can't force them out of the darkness, at least they can stay in place and not act rashly, and they can also buy us time."

Now it is already a warning. Since it has been alarmed, there is no disturbance or not. So just investigate it with great fanfare so that they dare not move.

Lu Bing pondered for a moment and said, "I'll see someone talking in detail later."

Zhao Yuan said: "Sir, who are we going to meet?"

Lu Bing said: "Go to meet the most powerful person in Dongchang now, the Dongchang Supervisor Cao Shi!"

Although because of Lu Bing's relationship, the power of the East Factory is now suppressed by the Jinyiwei, it cannot send the people from the East Factory to the power of the court.

As the governor of the Dongchang Factory, Cao Shi is undoubtedly one of the targets that the high-ranking officials and nobles are afraid of now. Lu Bing is not inferior to Lu Bing. When Lu Bing comes to him, it means that Dongchang and the Jinyiwei will join forces to find out the Japanese pirates hidden in the capital.

Soon the two of them turned back to the palace and arrived at the Dongchang Yamen next to Guanghua Gate. While they were informed, they walked in directly. The men at the door did not have the courage to stop Lu Bing who was coming.

After walking in, Cao Shi hurriedly came up with him, smiling and said, "Mr. Lu, what wind has blown you here, please sit down, come and serve tea!"

Lu Bing sat on the chair casually and then said, "Tell me about it to Lord Cao!"

Zhao Yuan bowed to Cao Shi, knelt down on one knee, and said, "See Lord Cao!"

Cao Shi was a little puzzled, looked at Zhao Yuan, then looked at Lu Bing, and asked, "Sir, what do you mean?"

Zhao Yuan stood up and said, "Reply to Lord Cao, please listen to my details!"

As he said that, he did not hide any of them, and reported the information he had learned from the escort agency robbery to the present clearly and in detail without missing any omissions.

Cao Shi was a little puzzled at first, but when he heard the back, his face became more and more serious. First, he never expected that the Jinyiwei had so many clues, but his Dongchang did not get any relevant information. They thought that the case of the robbery of the escort agency was just an ordinary case, and they didn't pay much attention to it. Besides, it was originally a case of the Shuntian Prefecture Office. He Jimin was still locked in the prison of the Jinyiwei because of this case. He still felt that it was a big problem. After hearing Zhao Yuanru's report, he found that it was not a big problem. He never expected that an inconspicuous escort agency robbery involved Japanese pirates, and there were so many. The most surprising thing was that one of the strongholds of those Japanese pirates was still next to Yan Song's mansion. If those Japanese pirates suddenly attacked, Yan Song and his son would probably be unable to protect their lives.

After listening carefully, Cao Shi said: "The Japanese pirates are so arrogant that they actually ran to the capital and lie down next to Lord Yan's mansion. If they suddenly attack, wouldn't they even have time to rescue them?"

Zhao Yuan heard his words and suddenly felt aroused in his heart, saying, "Two adults, the young one suddenly had an idea."

When Zhao Yuan had this idea in his mind, he was shocked. If this was the case, then this would have become a big deal.

Lu Bing said: "You said!"
